Readings
ثَمَرٌ
thamarun
“he had (abundant) fruit”
ثُمُرٌ
thumurun
ثُمْرٌ
thumrun
“he had (abundant) fruit” OR “he had (much) wealth”

Explanation

These readings are identical in meaning (if thumur and its lightened form thumr are the plural of thimār, itself a plural of thamarah, a fruit); or they provide complementary meanings [al-Mahdawi].
