seems to be hence derived:]) for [or تطاول may here be used in another sense; for, accord. to Fei,] بَزَا, aor. as above, signifies he overcame, or subdued; and hence is derived ↓ بَازٍ. (Msb.) Yousay also, بَزَا عَلَيْهِ, aor. as above, meaning تطاول [i. e., thus followed by عليه, He held up his head with an assumption of superiority over him; behaved haughtily towards him; exalted himself above him; or overpowered, subdued, or oppressed, him].

502:) and accord. to Aboo-Riyásh, ↓ ابزى signifies he pressed heavily upon his adversary, or imposed on him that which he was unable to do, or to bear, in order to treat him wrongfully, or injuriously.

(S: [but I think it not improbable that this may have been taken from a mistranscription of نَزَوَانٌ, an inf. n. of نَزَا.]) A2: بَزِىَ, (K,) aor. ـَ (Ham p. 502;) and بَزَا, aor. ـُ (K;) inf. n. بَزًا (S, * K, * TA) and بَزْوٌ, (TA,) He (a man, TA) had what is termed بَزًا; (K;) i. e., prominence of the breast and depression of the back: (S, K, and Ham ubi suprà:) or depression of the back and prominence of the belly: or, as some say, prominence of the breast and depression of the lower part of the belly: (Ham ubi suprà:) or depression of the breast and prominence of the lower part of the belly: (Ham p. 105:) or a bending in the back next the posteriors: (K, TA:) or a projecting of the middle of the back over the posteriors: or a backward bulging of the posteriors: (K:) or he was as though his posteriors projected over the hinder part of the thighs: or he had the breast bulging forward and the posteriors backward, so that he appeared unable to straighten his back.

Accord. to IAar, البزاء [probably a mistranscription for الإِبْزَآءُ] signifies الصلف [i. e. الصَّلَفُ, app. meaning An extravagant affecting of elegance of carriage, such as is common with women]. (TA.) 6 تبازى: see 4. b2: Also He stepped wide.

زجو

1 زَجَا, (S, K,) aor. ـْ (S,) inf. n. زَجَآءٌ (S, K, and Ham p. 78) and زَجْوٌ (K and Ham) and زُجُوٌّ, (K,) It (a thing) went, or became urged on or along, quickly. (Ham ubi suprà: there indicated by the context, but not expressed.) b2: It (a bad piece of money) passed, or had currency. (Er-Rághib, TA.) b3: It (an affair) was, or became, easy; and right, in a right state, or right in its direction or tendency. (K, TA.) Hence the trad., لَا تَزْجُو صَلَاةٌ لَا يُقْرَأُ فِيهَا بِفَاتِحَةِ الكِتَابِ i. e. [A prayer in which the opening chapter of the Book (meaning the Kur-án) is not recited] will not be right. (TA.) b4: Also, inf. n. زَجَآءٌ, said of the [tax called] خَرَاج, It was, or became, easy of collection. (S.) b5: زَجَآءٌ also signifies The acting with penetrative energy, and effectiveness, in an affair. (S, K.) One says, هٰذَا الأَمْرُ قَدْ زَجَوْنَا عَلَيْهِ [app. meaning This affair, we have effected it, or accomplished it; like as one says, مَضَيْنَا عَلَى الأَمْرِ]. (T, TA.) And عَطَآءٌ قَلِيلٌ يَزْجُو خَيْرٌ مِنْ كَثِيرٍ لَا يَزْجُو [A small gift that is effective is better than much that will not be effective]. (S.) A2: One says also, ضَحِكَ حَتَّى زَجَا i. e. [He laughed until] his laughing became stopped, or cut short. (S, K. *) A3: See also what next follows, in two places.2 زجّاهُ, (S, Msb, TA,) inf. n. تَزْجِيَةٌ, (S, TA,) He pushed it gently, (S, Msb, TA,) in order that it might go on; as also ↓ ازجاهُ; and ↓ زَجَاهُ, aor. ـْ inf. n. زَجْوٌ: and this last, he drove it, or urged it on, gently; (TA;) [and so زجّاهُ and ↓ ازجاهُ, as will be shown by what follows:] or ↓ زَجَاهُ signifies [simply] he drove it, or urged it on: and he pushed it: and so [app. in both of these senses] زجّاهُ and ↓ ازجاهُ. (K.) Hence, i. e. from زَجَّيْتُهُ meaning “ I pushed it gently,” (Har p. 304,) one says, كَيْفَ تُزَجِّى الأَيَّامَ (S, Har) i. e. كَيْفَ تُدَافِعُهَا [How dost thou strive with the days in pushing them on, or making them to pass away?]: (S:) or كيف تَدْفَعُهَا [how dost thou push on the days? and thus may mean also كيف تدافعها]: (Har:) [or how dost thou make the days to pass away? for] زجّى الأَيَّامَ means he made the days to pass away: (MA:) [or how dost thou pass the days? for it is also said that] تَزْجِيَةٌ signifies the passing [one's] days. (KL.) [زجّى الأَيَّامَ may be well rendered He made the days to pass away by means of exertion; and so دَفَعَهَا and دَافَعَهَا.

Har (ubi suprà) uses the phrase أُزَجِّى أَيَّامًا مُسْوَدَّةً as meaning I push on evil and hard days.] ↓ ازجى

الشَّىْءَ, also, inf. n. إِزْجَآءٌ, is expl. by Az as signifying دَافَعَ بِقَلِيلِهِ [app. meaning He strove to push on life, or to repel want or the like, with little of the thing]: and accord. to a saying heard by him from a man of the tribe of Fezárah, نُزَجِّىدُنْيَانَا [or the correct reading may be ↓ نُزْجِى, and accord. to either reading the phrase may be rendered We strive to push on life, or to repel want &c., with little of our worldly possessions,] means we content ourselves in respect of our worldly possessions with scanty sustenance. (TA. [See also 5.]) One says also CCC الإِبِلَ ↓ أَزْجَيْتُ I drove the camels. (S.) And CCC وَلَدَهَا ↓ البَقَرَةُ تُزْجِى

The [wild] cow drives her young one. (S.) الرِّيحُ السَّحَابَ ↓ تُزْجِىِ CCC The wind drives along the clouds: (S:) or drives along gently the clouds; as also تُزَجِّيهِ, but in an intensive sense. (Msb.) In like manner, سَحَابًا ↓ يُزْجِى is said of God, in the Kur [xxiv. 43]: and in the same [xvii. 68], رَبُّكُمُ الَّذِى

لَكُمُ الْفُلْكَ فِى البَحْرِ ↓ يُزْجِى CCC [Your Lord is He who driveth along for you the ship in the sea]. (TA.) And a poet says, ↓ زَجَّيْتُهُ بِالقَوْلِ وَازْدَجَيْتُهُ i. e. [I drove him with speech, and] urged him on: for اِزْدَجَاهُ signifies سَاقَهُ [like زَجَّاهُ &c.]. (TA.) b2: And زجّى حَاجَتِى He made easy the attainment of my want. (TA.) A2: زجّى الرُّمْحَ i. q. أَزَجَّهُ q. v. in art. زج. (TA in that art.) 4 أَزْجَوَ see 2, in ten places. ازجى also signifies He made money, or bad money, to pass, or be current. (Er-Rághib, TA.) 5 تَزَجَّيْتُ بِكَذَا I contented myself with such a thing: a rájiz says, تَزَجَّ مِنْ دُنْيَاكَ بِالبَلَاغِ [Content thyself with what is sufficient of thy worldly possessions]. (S. [See also 2.]) 8 إِزْتَجَوَ see 2, near the end of the paragraph.

(S, K. *) مُزْجًى, applied to a horse [or other beast], That is driven, or urged on, (يزجى, [i. e. يُزْجَى,]) in his pace, by little and little. (Ham p. 158.) b2: A small, or scanty, thing; (S, Er-Rághib, TA;) or such as is mean, or paltry; that may be pushed and driven away because of the little account that is made of it. (Er-Rághib, TA.) بِضَاعَةٌ مُزْجَاةٌ means Small, or scanty, merchandise; little in quantity: (S, K:) and so it is said to mean in the Kur [xii. 88]: or, as in some copies of the S, little, or mean, or paltry, merchandise: (TA:) or mean, or paltry, merchandise, rejected by every one to whom it is offered: (A, TA:) or merchandise wherewith the days are pushed on (تُدْفَعُ [i. e. made to pass away by means of exertion]) because of its scantiness: (Msb, TA: [for مُزْجَاةٌ بِهَا:]) or, accord. to the shereef El-Murtadà, merchandise driven along portion after portion, scantily and feebly: (TA:) or merchandise in respect of which a lowering of the price is demanded on account of its badness (فِيهَا إِغْمَاضٌ); (Th, TA;) not in perfect condition: (Th, K, TA:) thus, too, it is expl. as used in the Kur: and some say that what is there mentioned consisted of fruit of the terebinth-tree, or of صَنَوْبَر [app. here meaning pine-cones]: some say, of commodities of the Arabs of the desert, wool, and clarified butter: and some say, of deficient pieces of money. (TA.) مُزَجًّى Weak: so termed because of his lagging behind, and requiring to be urged on: (Ham p. 441:) or anything not perfect in nobility, nor in any other praiseworthy quality: or, as some say, one driven to generosity against his will: (TA:) and also, (TA,) applied to a man, i. q. مُزَلَّجٌ [q. v., app. here meaning deficient in manliness, or manly virtue, or the like]. (S, TA.) [الزَّمَانُ المُزَجَّى, a phrase used by Har, is expl. (p. 429) as meaning حَقُّهُ أَنْ يُزَجِّيهِ النَّاسُ, i. e.

قصبة، والجمع قصبات: خرزات مستطيلة أسطوانية الشكل للقلادة، كما رأى لين أن يترجم بهذا عبارة ألف ليلة (1: 576): وفي رقبته طوق من الذهب الأحمر وثلث قصبات من الزبرجد وهذا المعنى جاء في محيط المحيط ففيه: والقصب ما كان مستطيلا من الجوهر. ويقول السيد دي غويه يجب ان نضيف إلى هذا إنها مجوفة. ففي الفائق (2: 347): قال صاحب العين القصب من الجوهر ما استطال منه في تجويف وفيه أيضا أن النبي (صلى الله عليه وسلم) فسره ببيت من لؤلؤ مجباة أي المجوفة. وكذلك ما نقله صاحب تاج العروس عن ابن الأثير.
وعند بعضهم: القصب انابيب من جوهر. وقصب أيضا: شرابه بشكل أنبوب، يقال مثلا: شاش بقصبات زركش (الملابس ص332).

قصابة: أنبوب معقوف. (بوشر).
قصابة: حين يفسر الجوهري هذه الكلمة بصناعة القصاب، فيجب فيما أرى أن لا تؤخذ كلمة قصاب بمعنى الزمار وهو النافخ بالمزمار، بل بمعنى الجزار ولذلك يجب أن لا تترجم بما معناه صناعة المزمار كما ترجمها فريتاج، بل بما معناه مهنة الجزار، وبهذا المعنى وجدت قصابة عند المقري (2: 525، باين سميث 1424).
غير أن صاحب تاج العروس يرى أن تفسير القصاب بالمزمار وهو النافخ في القصب صحيح فهو يقول: والقصاب الزمار وهو النافخ في القصب والقصاب الجزار وحرفة الأخير القصابة، وكلام الجوهري يقتضي أن هذا التصريف في الزمر أيضا.
وأري أن صاحب التاج إنما يستنتج ذلك استنتاجا ولا يذكر له مثالا.

مقصبة: زراعة قصب السكر. ففي ابن العوام (1: 392): ويبيت فيها الغنم حتى يصير زبلها أرض المقصبة (وهذا ما جاء في مخطوطتنا).

A2: قصّب الزَّرْعُ, (S, M, O,) inf. n. تَقْصِيبٌ; (S;) and ↓ اقصب; (M;) The زرع [i. e. seed-produce, or wheat or the like,] produced its قَصَب [or jointed stalks, or culms:] (M:) this is the case after the تَفْرِيخ. (S, O. [See 2 in art. فرخ.]) [Hence the saying,] إِنِّى أَرَى الشَّرَّ قَصَّبَ (assumed tropical:) [Verily I see evil, or the evil, to have grown, like corn producing its culms].

(S, O.) رَعَى فَأَقْصَبَ [He pastured, and performed his service ill, &c.,] is a prov., (S, M, O, K,) applied to a [bad] pastor; because, if he pasture the camels ill, they will not drink; (S, O, K;) for they drink only when they are satiated with the herbage: (S, O:) or, as Meyd says, it is applied to him who will not act sincerely, or honestly, and with energy, or vigour, in an affair which he has undertaken, so that he mars, or vitiates, it.

One says, هُوَ يَجُرُّ قُصْبَهُ [expl. by what here follows]. (S, O.) The Prophet said, respecting 'Amr Ibn-'Ámir El-Khurá'ee, who first set at liberty سَوَائِب [pl. of سَائِبَةٌ, q. v.], (O,) or respecting 'Amr Ibn-Kamee-ah, who first changed the religion of Ishmael, (TA,) رَأَيْتُهُ يَجُرُّ قُصْبَهُ فِى النُّارِ [I saw him dragging his guts in the fire of Hell]. (O, TA.) b2: El-Aashà in his saying وَشَاهِدُنَا الجُلَّ وَاليَاسَمِى

نُ وَالمُسْمِعَاتُ بِأَقْصَابِهَا means [The rose being present with us, and the jasmine, and the songstresses] with their chords of gut: or, as some relate it, (and as it is cited in the M,) he said ↓ بِقُصَّابِهَا, meaning with their musical reeds, or pipes. (S, O.) b3: And (tropical:) The middle of the body; metaphorically applied thereto: so in the saying of Imra-el-Keys, (S, O, L,) or, accord. to the people of El-Koofeh and ElBasrah, it is falsely ascribed to him, (O,) والقُصْبُ مُضْطَمِرٌ وَالمَتْنُ مَلْحُوبُ [And the middle of the body slender and lean, and the portion next the back-bone, on either side, smooth, and sloping downwards]. (S, O, L.) b4: And (assumed tropical:) The back. (O, K. [SM, not having found this in any lexicon but the K, supposed that الظَّهْرُ might be substituted in it for الخَصْرُ, which is not therein mentioned as a meaning of القُصْبُ.]) قَصَبٌ [a coll. gen. n., signifying Reeds, or canes; and the like, as the culms of corn, &c.; and sometimes signifying a reed, or cane, and the like, as meaning a species thereof;] any plant having (M, A, Mgh, Msb, K) its stem composed of (Mgh, Msb) أَنَابِيب [or internodial portions] (M, A, Mgh, Msb, K) and [their] كُعُوب [or connecting knots, or joints]; (Mgh, Msb;) [i. e. any kind, or species, of plant having a jointed stem;] i. q. أَبَآءٌ [a word comparatively little known]; (S; [in the O اَناء, a mistranscription;]) and [it is said that] ↓ قَصْبَآءُ signifies the same: (S, O: [but see what follows:]) the n. un. of the former is ↓ قَصَبَةٌ (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ قَصْبَاةٌ or ↓ قَصَبَاةٌ: (K accord. to different copies; the former accord. to the TA: [but each of these I believe to be a mistake for ↓ قَصُبْآءَةٌ, which is said to be a n. un. of قَصْبَآءُ, and therefore held by some to be syn. with قَصَبَةٌ:]) ↓ قَصْبَآءُ [appears, however, to differ somewhat from قَصَب, for it is said that it] signifies an assemblage of قَصَب; (M, K;) and its n. un. is ↓ قَصَبَةٌ and ↓ قَصْبَآءَةٌ [like حَلَفَةٌ and حَلْفَآءَةٌ which are both said to be ns. un. of حَلْفَآءٌ; and طَرَفَةٌ and طَرْفَآءَةٌ, said to be ns. un. of طَرْفَآءٌ; the former in each case anomalous]: (M: [see also Ham p. 201:]) or, accord. to Sb, ↓ قَصْبَآءُ is sing. and pl., (S, M, Mgh, O,) and so طَرْفَآءُ, (S, M, O,) and حَلْفَآءُ; (S, O;) as pl. and as sing. also having the sign of the fem. gender; therefore, when they mean to express the sing. signification, they add the epithet وَاحِدَةٌ; thus, and thus only, distinguishing the sing. meaning from the pl., and making a difference between a word of this class and a noun that denotes a pl. meaning and has not the sign of the fem. gender such as تَمْرٌ and بُسْرٌ, and such as أَرْطًى and عَلْقًى of which the ns. un. are أَرْطَاةٌ and عَلْقَاةٌ: (M:) or, as some say, ↓ قَصْبَآءُ signifies many قَصَب growing in a place: (Mgh:) and it signifies also a place in which قَصَب grow: (M, K:) [or] ↓ مَقْصَبَةٌ has this last meaning; (Mgh, Msb;) or signifies, like ↓ أَرْضٌ قَصِبَةٌ, a land having قَصَب. (M, K. *) b2: أَحْرَزَ قَصَبَ السَّبْقِ, (Msb,) or السَّبْقِ ↓ قَصَبَةَ, (TA,) [meaning (assumed tropical:) He won, or acquired, the canes, or cane, of victory in racing,] is said of the winner in horseracing: they used to set up, in the horse-course, a cane (قَصَبَة,) and he who outstripped plucked it up and took it, in order that he might be known to be the one who outstripped, without contention: this was the origin of the phrase: then, in consequence of frequency of usage, it was applied also to the expeditious, quick, and light, or active: (Msb, * TA:) [accord. to the TA, it is a tropical phrase, but perhaps it is so only when used in the latter way:] it is said in a trad. of Sa'eed Ibn-El-Ás, that he measured the horse-course with the cane, making it to be a hundred canes in length, and the cane was stuck upright in the ground at the goal, and he who was first in arriving at it took it, and was entitled to the stake. (O, TA. [See also مُقَصِّبٌ.]) b3: [The ↓ قَصَبَة here mentioned as A certain measure of length, used in measuring race-courses, was also used in other cases, in measuring land, and differed in different countries and in different times: accord. to some, it was ten cubits; thus nearly agreeing with our “ rod: ” (see جَرِيبٌ:) accord. to others, six cubits and a third of a cubit: (see فَدَّانٌ:) the modern Egyptian قَصَبَة, until it was reduced some years ago, was about twelve English feet and a half; its twentyfourth part, called قَبْضَةٌ, being the measure of a man's fist with the thumb erect, or about six inches and a quarter.] b4: القَصَبُ الفَارِسِىُّ [The Persian reed] is a kind whereof writing-reeds are made: (Mgh, Msb:) and another kind thereof is hard and thick; and of this kind are made musical reeds, or pipes; and with it houses, or chambers, are roofed.

(A, TA.) b5: قَصَبُ السُّكَّرِ is well-known [as meaning The sugar-cane]: (Msb:) this is of three kinds; white and yellow and black: of the first and second, but not of the third, the juice [of which sugar is made] is expressed; and this expressed juice is called عَسَلُ القَصَبِ. (Mgh.) b6: قَصَبُ الذَّرِيرَةِ [is Calamus aromaticus; also called قَصَبُ الطِّيبِ]: a species thereof has the joints near together, and breaks into many fragments, or splinters, and the internodial portions thereof are filled with a substance like spiders' webs: when chewed, it has an acrid taste, and it is aromatic (Mgh, Msb) when brayed, or powdered; (Mgh;) and inclines to yellowness and whiteness. (Mgh, Msb. [See also ذَرِيرَةٌ, in art. ذر.]) b7: قَصَبٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) Any round and hollow bone [or rather bones]; (S, O;) it is pl. [or rather a coll. gen. n.] of which ↓ قَصَبَةٌ is the sing. [or n. un,], this latter signifying any bone containing marrow; (M, K;) thus called by way of comparison [to the reed, or cane]. (M.) b8: And (tropical:) The bones of the يَدَانِ and رِجْلَانِ [i. e. arms and legs, or hands and feet, but here app. meaning the latter], (A, Msb,) and the like: (Msb:) [or] (assumed tropical:) the [phalanges, or] bones of the fingers and toes; (M, K, * TA;) (tropical:) the bones whereof there are three in each finger and two in the thumb [and the like in the feet]; (A, TA;) and Zj says, the bones of the أَصَابِع [or fingers and toes] which are also called سُلَامَى: (Msb in art. سلم:) or, as some say, the portions between every two joints of the أَصَابِع: (M, TA:) and الأَصَابِعِ ↓ قَصَبَةُ [or قَصَبُةُ الإِصْبَعِ] signifies the أَنْمَلَة [here perhaps meaning the ungual phalanx] of the finger or toe. (Msb, TA.) b9: And (assumed tropical:) The bones and veins of a wing. (MF.) b10: [And (assumed tropical:) Quills: thus in the phrase صَارَ الرِّيشُ قَصَبًا, in the K, voce أَنُوقٌ, meaning The feathers became quills: n. un. ↓ قَصَبَةٌ: see صَنَمَةٌ.] b11: And (tropical:) [The bronchi;] the branches of the windpipe; (M, K;) and outlets of the breath; (K;) [i. e.] القَصَبُ, (S, M, O,) or فَصَبُ الرِّئَةِ, (A, Msb,) signifies the ducts (عُرُوق) of the lungs; (S, A, O, Msb;) through which the breath passes forth. (S, M, A, O, Msb.) [See حَلْقٌ.] b12: And (assumed tropical:) Any things made of silver, and of other material, resembling [in form] the kind of round and hollow bone [or bones] thus called: n. un. ↓ قَصَبَةٌ. (S, O.)

So in the saying, in a trad., (O, K,) related as uttered by Gabriel, (O,) [cited in the S app. as an ex. of the meaning next preceding this last,] بَشِّرْ خَدِيجَةَ بِبَيْتِ فِى الجَنَّةِ مِنْ قَصَبٍ (IAar, O, K) i. e. [Rejoice thou Khadeejeh by the announcement of] a pavilion [in Paradise] of brilliant pearls, &c.: (IAar, O:) or the meaning is, of hollow pearls [or pearl], spacious, like the lofty palace: (IAth, TA:) or of emerald: (TA voce بَيْتٌ:) and it is said by some to convey an allusion to Khadeejeh's acquiring what is termed قَصَبُ السَّبْقِ [expl. above], because she was the first person, or the first of women, who embraced El-Islám. (MF, TA.) b14: And (tropical:) Fine, thin, or delicate, (S, O,) or soft, (M, Msb, K,) garments, or cloths, of linen: (S, M, O, Msb, K:) a single one thereof is called ↓ قَصَبِىٌّ. (M, O, Msb, K.)
