A3: نَبَأَ عَلَيْهِمْ, (K,) inf. n. نَبْءٌ and نُبُوْءٌ, (S,) He assaulted them; came forth upon them: (K:) like نَبَعَ and نَبَهَ: he came upon them. (Az, S.) [See also نَابِئٌ.]

[See نَابِئٌ.] b3: نَبَأَتْ بِهِ الأَرْضُ i. q. جَآءَتْ به, The land brought, or led him: (S, L:) [accord. to Golius, The land brought, or produced, it: but it is a phrase well known to the learned among the Arabs in the present day, as similar to نَادَاهُ تُرَابُهُ “ his dust, or earth, (i. e. the place of his burial,) called him: ” and the explanation which I have given is confirmed by the citation, in the S, of the following verse, of Hanash Ibn-Málik, immediately after نبأت به in the sense of جاءت به:] فَنَفْسَكَ أَحْرِزْ فَإِنَّ الحُتُو فَ يَنْبَأْنَ بِالمَرْءِ فِى كُلِّ وَادْ [Then take good care of thyself; for deaths (of various kinds) bring (or lead) a man into every valley (or place): i. e., fate brings him to the place where he is destined to be buried, whereever it be].

(TA.) b2: Es-Semeen says, that انبأ and نبّأ and اخبر and خبّر, when they convey the meaning of knowledge, are triply transitive, or may govern three objective complements, the greatest number that any verb can govern: (TA:) [ex. أَنْبَأْتُ زَيْدًا عَمْرًا قَائِمًا I acquainted Zeyd that 'Amr was standing]. b3: It is also said, that ↓ نبّأ

has a more intensive signification than انبأ: ex.

مَنْ أَنْبَأَكَ هٰذَا قَالَ نَبَّأَنِى العَلِيمُ الخَبِيرُ [Who hath acquainted thee with this? He said, The Knowing, the Intelligent (God), hath apprized me: Kur, lxvi. 3]. (TA.) b4: Sb has mentioned أَنَا

(K.) 5 تنبّأ, (S, K,) said to have been pronounced with ء universally; (Sb, S;) but in the L, تنبّى; (TA;) He arrogated to himself the gift of prophecy, or office of a prophet. (L, K.) 10 استنبأ النَّبَأَ He sought, or searched after, information, or news. (K.) b2: وَيَسْتَنْبِئُونَكَ أَحَقٌّ هُوَ (in the Kur, x. 54) means And they will ask thee to inform them, [saying,] Is it true? (Bd.) نَبَأٌ Information; a piece of information; intelligence; an announcement; news; tidings; a piece of news; an account; a narrative, or narration; a story: or what is related from another or others: syn. خَبَرٌ: (S, Msb, K:) it is generally held to be syn. with خَبَرٌ; but accord. to Er-Rághib, signifies an announcement of great utility, from which results either knowledge or a predominance of opinion, and true: (TA:) pl. أَنْبَآءُ. (K.) b2: النَّبَأُ العَظِيمُ [Kur, lxxviii. 2,] accord. to some, The Kur-án: others say, the resurrection: and others, the case of the Prophet. (TA.) b3: الأَنْبَآءُ, in the Kur, xxviii. 66, (فَعَمِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الأَنْبَآءُ) signifies The allegations, pleas, or excuses. (TA.) نَبْأَةٌ An eminence, or protuberance, in the earth, or ground.

(K.) نَبِىْءٌ, (S, K,) pronounced with ء in the dial. of the people of Mekkeh, (S,) whose pronunciation of it is disapproved by Sb on account of its uncommonness; (TA;) by others, نَبِىٌّ, without ء; (S, K, TA;) A prophet: (TA:) of the measure فَعِيلٌ used in the sense of the measure مُفْعل [i. e.

مُفْعِلٌ or مَفْعَلٌ] (IB) or فَاعِلٌ (S, Es-Sunoosee) or مَفْعُولٌ; (Es-Sunoosee) i. e., who acquaints or informs mankind, (S, K, TA,) or who is acquainted or informed, respecting God and things unseen: or accord. to some, it is derived from نَبْوَةٌ and نَبَاوَةٌ signifying “ elevation; ” (see art. نبو;) in which case it is originally without ء: or, accord. to others, from نَبِىْءٌ in a sense given below; that of “ a conspicuous way. ” (TA.) It is a less special word than رَسُولٌ [when thereby is meant an apostle of God]; for every رسول is a نبىّ, but not every نبىّ is a رسول. (TA.) Pl.

أَنْبِيَآءُ (S, K, without ء, because the ء is changed into ى in the sing., S,) and نُبَأءُ (S, K, like كُرَمَآءُ [pl. of كَرِيمٌ] TA,) and أَنْبَآءٌ [K, these two preserving the original radical ء] and نَبِيُّونَ, (K,) without ء: (TA:) but some pronounced the first and last of these pls., in the Kur-án, with ء; though the more approved pronunciation is without ء. (TA.) The dim. is نُبَيّئٌ, (S, K,) with those who make the pl. نُبَأءٌ [or أَنْبَآءٌ]; but with those who make the pl. أَنْبِيَآء, it is نُبَىٌّ. (K.) b2: An Arab of the desert said to Mohammad, يَا نَبِىْءَ اللّٰهِ, and the latter disapproved of his pronouncing نبىء in this case with ء, because, as it signifies An emigrant, he meant thereby to call him an emigrant from Mekkeh to El-Medeeneh. (S, K, TA.) b3: نَبِىْءٌ A conspicuous, an evident, or a clear, way. (K.) Hence, accord. to some, the apostle [or rather prophet] is so called, because he is the conspicuous, evident, way, that conducts to God. (MF.) b4: نَبِىْءٌ and ↓ نَابِئٌ An elevated, or a protuberant, or gibbous, place. (K.) b5: Hence it is said in a trad., لَا تُصَلُّوا عَلَى النَّبِىْءِ [Pray not upon the place that is elevated, or protuberant]. (K.) نُبُوْءَةٌ, (K, in the CK نُبُوَّة) in which the ء is sometimes softened in pronunciation, and sometimes [or rather generally] changed into و which is incorporated into the preceding و so that the word is written and pronounced نُبُوَّةٌ, (TA,) Prophecy; the gift of prophecy; the office, or function, of a prophet. (MA, K.) Dim. نُبَيِّئَةٌ. (S, K.) نَابِئٌ act. part. n. of نَبَأَ. b2: A bull [app. a ثَوْرٌ وَحْشِىٌّ] that goes forth from one land or country to another. (TA.) b3: A torrent that comes forth from another land or tract. (S.) b4: A man coming forth unexpectedly from an unknown quarter. (S, A.) b5: [See also نَبِىْءٌ.]

هَلْ عِنْدَكُمْ نَابِئَةُ خَبَرٍ, i. q. جَائِبَةُ خَبَرٍ, [Have ye any current news? or — news from a distant place? &c.: see جائبة]. (A.)

نبأ
[النَّبَأُ] : خبر ذو فائدة عظيمة يحصل به علم أو غَلَبَة ظنّ، ولا يقال للخبر في الأصل نَبَأٌ حتى يتضمّن هذه الأشياء الثّلاثة، وحقّ الخبر الذي يقال فيه نَبَأٌ أن يتعرّى عن الكذب، كالتّواتر، وخبر الله تعالى، وخبر النبيّ عليه الصلاة والسلام، ولتضمُّن النَّبَإِ معنى الخبر يقال: أَنْبَأْتُهُ بكذا كقولك: أخبرته بكذا، ولتضمّنه معنى العلم قيل: أَنْبَأْتُهُ كذا، كقولك: أعلمته كذا . قال الله تعالى: قُلْ هُوَ نَبَأٌ عَظِيمٌ أَنْتُمْ عَنْهُ مُعْرِضُونَ
[ص/ 67 68] ، وقال: عَمَّ يَتَساءَلُونَ عَنِ النَّبَإِ الْعَظِيمِ
[النبأ/ 1- 2] ، أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ نَبَأُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ قَبْلُ فَذاقُوا وَبالَ أَمْرِهِمْ [التغابن/ 5] ، وقال: تِلْكَ مِنْ أَنْباءِ الْغَيْبِ نُوحِيها إِلَيْكَ
[هود/ 49] ، وقال:
تِلْكَ الْقُرى نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ أَنْبائِها
[الأعراف/ 101] ، وقال: ذلِكَ مِنْ أَنْباءِ الْقُرى نَقُصُّهُ عَلَيْكَ [هود/ 100] ، وقوله:
إِنْ جاءَكُمْ فاسِقٌ بِنَبَإٍ فَتَبَيَّنُوا
[الحجرات/ 6] فتنبيه أنه إذا كان الخبر شيئا عظيما له قدر فحقّه أن يتوقّف فيه، وإن علم وغلب صحّته على الظّنّ حتى يعاد النّظر فيه، ويتبين فضل تبيّن، يقال:
نَبَّأْتُهُ وأَنْبَأْتُهُ. قال تعالى: أَنْبِئُونِي بِأَسْماءِ هؤُلاءِ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صادِقِينَ
[البقرة/ 31] ، وقال:
أَنْبِئْهُمْ بِأَسْمائِهِمْ فَلَمَّا أَنْبَأَهُمْ بِأَسْمائِهِمْ
[البقرة/ 33] ، وقال: نَبَّأْتُكُما بِتَأْوِيلِهِ
[يوسف/ 37] ، وَنَبِّئْهُمْ عَنْ ضَيْفِ إِبْراهِيمَ
[الحجر/ 51] ، وقال: أَتُنَبِّئُونَ اللَّهَ بِما لا يَعْلَمُ فِي السَّماواتِ وَلا فِي الْأَرْضِ
[يونس/ 18] ، قُلْ سَمُّوهُمْ أَمْ تُنَبِّئُونَهُ بِما لا يَعْلَمُ [الرعد/ 33] ، وقال: نَبِّئُونِي بِعِلْمٍ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ صادِقِينَ
[الأنعام/ 143] ، قَدْ نَبَّأَنَا اللَّهُ مِنْ أَخْبارِكُمْ [التوبة/ 94] . ونَبَّأْتُهُ أبلغ من أَنْبَأْتُهُ، فَلَنُنَبِّئَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا
[فصلت/ 50] ، يُنَبَّؤُا الْإِنْسانُ يَوْمَئِذٍ بِما قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ
[القيامة/ 13] ويدلّ على ذلك قوله: فَلَمَّا نَبَّأَها بِهِ قالَتْ مَنْ أَنْبَأَكَ هذا قالَ نَبَّأَنِيَ الْعَلِيمُ الْخَبِيرُ
[التحريم/ 3] ولم يقل: أَنْبَأَنِي، بل عَدَلَ إلى «نَبَّأَ» الّذي هو أبلغُ تنبيهاً على تحقيقه وكونه من قِبَلِ الله. وكذا قوله: قَدْ نَبَّأَنَا اللَّهُ مِنْ أَخْبارِكُمْ
[التوبة/ 94] ، فَيُنَبِّئُكُمْ بِما كُنْتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ
[المائدة/ 105] والنُّبُوَّةُ: سِفَارَةٌ بين الله وبين ذوي العقول من عباده لإزاحة عللهم في أمر مَعادِهم ومَعاشِهم. والنَّبِيُّ لكونه منبِّئا بما تسكن إليه العقول الذَّكيَّة، وهو يصحُّ أن يكون فعيلا بمعنى فاعل لقوله تعالى: نَبِّئْ عِبادِي
[الحجر/ 49] ، قُلْ أَأُنَبِّئُكُمْ
[آل عمران/ 15] ، وأن يكون بمعنى المفعول لقوله: نَبَّأَنِيَ الْعَلِيمُ الْخَبِيرُ [التحريم/ 3] . وتَنَبَّأَ فلان: ادَّعى النُّبوَّة، وكان من حقّ لفظه في وضع اللّغة أن يصحّ استعماله في النبيِّ إذ هو مُطاوِعُ نَبَّأَ، كقوله: زَيَّنَهُ فَتَزَيَّنَ، وحَلَّاهُ فَتَحَلَّى، وجَمَّلَهُ فَتَجَمَّلَ، لكن لمَّا تُعُورِفَ فيمن يدَّعِي النُّبوَّةَ كَذِبا جُنِّبَ استعمالُه في المُحقِّ، ولم يُستعمَل إلّا في المُتقوِّل في دَعْواه. كقولك: تَنَبَّأَ مُسَيْلِمَةُ، ويقال في تصغير نَبيء: مُسَيْلِمَة نُبَيِّئُ سَوْءٍ، تنبيهاً أنَّ أخباره ليست من أخبار الله تعالى، كما قال رجل سمع كلامه: والله ما خرج هذا الكلام من إلٍّ أي: اللهِ. والنَّبْأَة الصَّوْتُ الخَفِيُّ.

And فَرَشَ فُلَانًا بِسَاطًا, inf. n. فَرْشٌ; and بساطا ↓ أَفْرَشَهُ; and بساطا ↓ فَرَّشَهُ, inf. n. تَفْرِيشٌ; He spread for such a one a carpet (IAar, K) in his entertainment. (IAar.)

(Msb.) فَرْشٌ [as an inf. n. of which the verb is فُرِشَت, as is shown by an explanation of إَقْعَادٌ in the S and L, and by the phrase مَفْرُوشَةُ الرِّجْلِ mentioned in the S and O and TA,] in the hind leg of a camel [and of a horse as is shown by the explanation above mentioned of اقعاد] signifies The being a little expanded; which is approved: (S, O, K:) when the width [between the shanks] is immoderate, so that the hock-joints knock together, which state is termed عَقَلٌ [inf. n. of عَقِلَ], it is disapproved: or, as some say, it signifies its not being erect nor much expanded.
