(TA.) And you say, حَفَفْتُهُ بِهِمْ I surrounded it, or him, with them. (Ksh and Bd in xviii. 31, and TA.) And حُفَّتِ الجَنَّةُ بِالمَكَارِهِ (TA) a trad., meaning (assumed tropical:) Paradise is encompassed by things that one dislikes to do: these being likened to a wall, through which alone one can enter Paradise.

As] says, the حَفَّة is the مِنْوَال; and it should not be called the ↓ حَفّ; for the حَفّ is the مِنْسَج: (S, O:) [the former is also applied to the yarnbeam, upon which the yarn is rolled: see نِيرٌ:] in the L, it is said that the حَفَّة of the weaver is the wide piece of wood with which he arranges the woof between [the threads of] the warp: or, as some say, the three canes: and some say that it is ↓ حِفَّةٌ, with kesr: and it is said to be the thing with which the weaver strikes, like a sword: and the ↓ حَفّ is the cane that comes and goes [or goes to and fro; app. meaning the shuttle]: Az says, thus it is with the Arabs: and its pl.

(A, TA.) b2: See also 4.4 احبّهُ, (S, A, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِحْبَابٌ; (KL;) and ↓ حَبَّهُ, (S,) first Pers\. حَبَبْتُهُ, (Msb, K,) aor. ـِ which is anomalous, (S, Msb, K,) the regular aor. being حَبُ3َ, which is unused, (Msb,) [said to be] the only instance of a trans. verb whose second and third radical letters are the same having the measure يَفْعِلُ as that of its aor. without having also the measure يَفْعُلُ, (S,) and therefore by some disapproved, as not chaste, and disallowed by Az, though he allows the pass. form حُبَّ, (TA,) inf. n. حُبٌّ, (K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and حِبٌّ; (K;) and [↓ حَبَّهُ,] first Pers\. حَبِبْتُهُ, aor. ـَ and ↓ حَابّهُ, inf. n. حِبَابٌ, of the dial. of Hudheyl; (Msb;) and ↓ استحبّهُ; (Msb, K;) signify the same; (S, Msb, K;) He loved, affected, liked, approved, or took pleasure in, him, or it: (A, K, and KL in explanation of the first and last:) he held him, or esteemed him, as a friend: (KL in explanation of the first and last:) or اِسْتِحْبَابٌ signifies the esteeming [a person or thing] good: (S:) and the preferring, or choosing, [a person or thing,] as also إِحْبَابٌ: (KL:) and استحبّهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ means he loved, or esteemed, him, or it, above another, or others; preferred him, or it, to another, or others. (K, A, * TA.) مَا أَحَبْتُ ذٰلِكَ, in the dial. of the tribe of Suleym, is for ما أَحْبَبْتُهُ [I loved not, or liked not, that]; like ظَنْتُ for ظَنَنْتُ, and ظَلْتُ and ظِلْتُ for ظَلِلْتُ. (Lh, TA.) [أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَكوُنَ كَذَا may be rendered I would that it were thus, or that such a thing were.] It is said of Ohod, in a trad., هُوَ جَبَلٌ يُحِبُّنَا وَنُحِبُّهُ, meaning It is a mountain whose inhabitants love us, and whose inhabitants we love: or it may mean we love the mountain itself, because it is in the land of people whom we love. (IAth, TA.) And one says فِى سَاعَةٍ يُحِبُّهَا الطَّعَامُ for يُحَبُّ فِيهَا [In an hour, or a time, in which food is loved, or liked]. (TA.) b2: مَا أَحَبَّهُ

إِلَىَّ i. q. حَبَّ بِهِ [How beloved, lovely, pleasing, charming, or excellent, is he, or it, to me!]; (As, S, K, * TA;) and so أَحْبِبْ إِلَىَّ بِهِ. (A, TA.) [De Sacy, in his Gram. Ar., sec. ed., ii. 221, mentions the saying, مَا أَحَبَّ المُؤْمِنَ للّٰهِ وَمَا أَحَبَّهُ إِلَى اللّٰهِ, as meaning How greatly does the believer love God! and how great an object of love is he to God!]

A2: احبّ, (S, K,) inf. n. as above, (S,) also signifies He (a camel) kneeled and lay down, and would not spring up: (K:) or was restive: or kneeled and lay down: (S:) or was afflicted by a fracture, or disease, and would not move from his place until cured, or remained there until he died: (Az, S, K:) or became jaded: (TA: [agreeably with this last explanation the act. part. n. is rendered in the S and K on the authority of Th:]) or was at the point of death, by reason of violent disease, and therefore kneeled and lay down, and could not be roused. (AHeyth, TA.) Accord. to AO, أَحْبَبْتُ حُبَّ الخَيْرِ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّى [in the Kur xxxviii. 31] means I have stuck to the ground, on account of my love of the horses, [lit., of good things,] and so been diverted from prayer, until the time of prayer has passed: (TA:) by الخير is meant الخَيْل. (Jel.) A3: Also He became in a state of recovery from his disease. (K.) A4: And It (seed-produce) had, bore, or produced, grain. (S, K.) 5 تجبّب He manifested, or showed, love, or affection, (S, K,) إِلَيْهِ to him. (S.) تحبّب and ↓ حَبَّ are both syn. with تُودّد. (TA.) b2: [Also, app., He became, or made himself, an object of love or affection to him: see مُحَبَّبٌ, said to be syn. with مُتَحَبِّبٌ.]

A2: He became swollen, or inflated, like a jar (حُبّ), from drinking. (A, TA.) b2: It (a water-skin &c.) became full. (AA, TA.) b3: He began to be satiated with drink. (K.) b4: He (an ass &c.) became filled with water: (S:) and ↓ حَبَّبَ also is used in this sense, but ISd doubts its correctness: (TA:) one says, شَرِبَتِ الإِبِلُ حَتَّى حَبَّبَتْ The camels drank until they were satiated. (S.) A3: تحبّب الجَلِيدُ كَاللُّؤْلُؤِ الصِّغَارِ [The hoar-frost formed into grains like small pearls]. (TA in art. صأب.) b2: تحبّب الرِّيقُ عَلَى الأَسْنَانِ [The saliva formed, or collected, in little bubbles upon the teeth].

(S in art. بحثر.) b4: تحبّب الزُّبْدُ [The butter formed into little clots, when first appearing in the milk or cream]. (S and K in art. ثمر.) The verb is also used in like manner in relation to honey, (K in art. حثر,) and دِبْس (S in that art.,) and medicine. (TA in that art. [See also 2.]) b5: تحبّب الجِلْدُ [The skin broke cat with pimples, or small pustules: so in the language of the present day: see حَبٌّ]. (TA in art. حثر.) 6 تحابّوا They loved, or affected, or liked, one another. (S, A, * K. *) 10 إِسْتَحْبَ3َ see 4.

A2: اِسْتَحَبَّتْ كَرِشُ المَالِ The stomachs of the cattle, or camels &c., retained the water [that they had drunk], and the time between the two waterings thereof became long, or became lengthened. (K.) This is at the conjunction of [the periods of] الطَّرْف and الجَبْهَة [the ninth and tenth of the Mansions of the Moon, which, in central Arabia, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, took place on the 12th of August, O. S., (see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل,)] when Canopus rises with them. (TA. [الصَّرْفَة is there put for الطَّرْف; but evidently by a mistake of a copyist. There is also another mistake, though a small one, in the foregoing passage: for Canopus rises, in central Arabia, after الطرف, and before الجبهة; and rose aurorally, in that latitude, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, on the 4th of August, O. S.]) حَبْ and حَبٍ A cry by which a he-camel is chidden, to urge him on. (TA voce حَوْبِ, q. v.) حَبٌّ, (S, Msb, K,) a [coll.] gen. n., (Msb,) n. un. حَبَّةٌ; (S, Msb, K;) Grain of wheat, barley, lentils, rice, &c.: (Az, TA:) accord. to Ks, only of wheat and barley: (TA:) or wheat &c. while in the ears or other envelopes: (Msb:) [but applied also to various other seeds; among which, to beans, (as in the Mgh in art. بقل,) and peas and the like; and kernels; and] the stones of grapes, dates, pomegranates, and the like: (Mgh voce عجَمٌ:) by some it is applied even [to berries; as, for instance,] to grapes: you say حَبَّةٌ مِنْ عِنَبٍ, as well as مِنَ البُرِّ, and مِنَ الشَّعِيرِ, and the like: (TA:) [and hence, to beads: (see حِبٌّ:)] the pl. (of حَبٌّ, Msb) is حُبُوبٌ (S, Msb, K) and حُبَّانٌ, like تُمْرَانٌ, (K,) pl. of تَمْرٌ; (TA;) and (of حَبَّةٌ, Msb) حَبَّاتٌ (Msb, K) and حِبَابٌ, [or this is pl. of حَبٌّ also,] like كِلَابٌ as pl. of كَلْبَةٌ [and of كَلْبٌ]: (Msb:) and حَبٌّ is also called [by lexicologists, but not by grammarians,] a pl. of حَبَّةٌ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] Seed-produce, whether small or large. (TA.) b3: And الحَبَّةُ الخَضْرَآءُ (S, K) i. q. البُطْمُ [The fruit of the terebinth-tree, or pistacia terebinthus of Linn. (Delile, Flor. Æg. no. 936.)] (K.) b4: And الحَبَّةُ السَّوْدَآءُ (S, K) i. q. الشُّونِيزُ [The black aromatic seed of a species of nigella]. (K.) [But see art. سود.

And for other similar terms, see the latter word of each.] b5: And حَبَّ الغَمَامِ and حَبُّ المُزْنِ and حَبُّ قُرٍّ Hail. (S. [See a metaphorical usage of the first of these in a verse cited voce أَنَّ.]) b6: [Hence likewise,] حَبٌّ also signifies Pimples, or small pustules: [so in the present day: and any similar small extuberances: a coll. gen. n.: n. un. with ة.] (S and K * in art. حثر.) حُبٌّ Love; affection; syn. وُدٌّ, (A,) or وِدَادٌ; (K;) inclination of the nature, or natural disposition, towards a thing that pleases, or delights; (Kull p. 165;) contr. of بُغْضٌ: (Mgh, TA:) حُبٌّ and ↓ حِبٌّ and ↓ حُبَّةٌ [this being said in the S to be syn. with حُبٌّ and in the K to be syn. with مَحَبَّةٌ, and it is used as an inf. n. in an ex. cited voce دَاحٌ in art. دوح,] and ↓ حُبَابٌ (S, K) and ↓ حِبَابٌ (K) and ↓ مَحَبَّةٌ (S) signify the same; (S, K;) i. e., as above. (K.) The degrees of حُبّ are as follow: first, هَوًى, the “ inclining of the soul, or mind; ” also applied to the “ object of love itself: ” then, عَلَاقَةٌ, “love cleaving to the heart; ” so termed because of the heart's cleaving to the object of love: then, كَلَفٌ, “violent, or intense, love; ” from كُلْفَةٌ signifying “ difficulty, or distress, or affliction: ” then, عِشْقٌ, [“ amorous desire; ” or “ passionate love; ”] in the S, “excess of love; ” and in the language of the physicians, “ a kind of melancholy: ” then, شَغَفٌ, “ardour of love, accompanied by a sensation of pleasure; ”

like لَوْعَةٌ and لَاعِجٌ; the former of which is “ ardour of love; ” and the latter, “ardent love: ”

then, جَوًى, “inward love; ” and “ violence of amorous desire,” or “ of grief, or sorrow: ” then, تَتَيُّمٌ, “a state of enslavement by love: ” then تَبْلٌ, “lovesickness: ” then, وَلَهٌ, “distraction, or loss of reason, in love: ” and then, هُيَامٌ “ a state of wandering about at random in consequence of overpowering love. ” (Kull ubi suprà.) [Accord. to the Msb, it is a simple subst.: but accord. to the K, an inf. n.; and hence,] حُبًّا لِمَا أَحْبَبْتُمْ, meaning أُحِبُّ حُبًّا [I love with loving, i. e. much, what ye have loved]. (Har p. 186.) Hence the phrase, وَكَرَامَةً ↓ نَعَمْ وَحُبَّةً [Yea; and with love and honour will I do what thou requirest: or for the sake of the love and honour that I bear thee: or حبّة may be here used for حُبًّا to assimilate it in termination to كرامة: see what follows]. (S, TA.) Hence also the saying of Abu-l-' Atà EsSindee, فَوَاللّٰهِ مَا أَدْرِى وَإِنِّى لَصَادِقٌ

أَدَآءٌ عَرَانِى مِنْ حُبَابِكِ أَمْ سِحْرُ [And by God, I know not (and indeed I am speaking truth) whether disease have befallen me in consequence of love of thee, or enchantment]: (S, TA:) but IB says that the reading best known is ↓ مِنْ حِبَابِكِ; and that حِباب, here, may be an inf. n. of حَابَبْتُهُ; or it may be pl. of حُبٌّ, like as عِشاشٌ is of عُشٌّ; (TA;) or it may be an inf. n. of حَبَبْتُهُ: some also read ↓ مِنْ حَبَابِكِ, with fet-h to the ح, said to mean on account of the love of thee, and of the main amount thereof: (Ham p. 26:) and some read مِنْ جَنَابِكِ “ from thy part ” [or “ from thee ”]. (TA.) b2: See also حَبِيبٌ.

A2: Also a Persian word, arabicized, (AHát, S, Msb,) from خُنْب, (AHát, TA,) [or خُبْ or خُپْ,] i. q. خَابِيَةٌ, (S, Msb,) A jar, (K, MF,) whether large or small, used for preparing wine: (MF:) or a large jar: (K:) or one for water: (IDrd, TA:) or the four pieces of wood upon which is placed a two-handled, or two-eared, jar: (K, TA: [in the CK, by a misplacement of words, this last signification is assigned to حَبَاب:]) pl. [of pauc.] أَحْبَابٌ (K) and [of mult.]

حِبَابٌ and حِبَبَةٌ. (S, Msb, K.) From this last signification is [said to be] derived the phrase حُبًّا وَكَرَامَةً [pronounced حُبًّا وَكَرَامَهْ, lit. A jarstand and a cover will I give thee, or the like], كرامة signifying the “ cover ” of a jar, (K, TA,) whether of wood or of baked clay. (TA.) [If this be the true derivation, the phrase may have originated from a person's asking of another the loan or gift of a jar, and the latter's replying

“ Yea; and I will give thee a jar-stand and a cover; ” meaning “ I will do what thou requirest, and more: ” but this phrase is now, and perhaps was in early times, generally used, agreeably with the more common significations of the two words, in the sense assigned above to the phrase حُبَّةً

وَكَرَامَةً.]

حِبٌّ: see حُبٌّ: b2: and حَبِيبٌ, in four places: A2: and حِبَّةٌ.

A3: Also, and ↓ حِبَابٌ, [but the latter is doubted by the author of the TA, and thought to be perhaps syn. with حِبٌّ in the sense of مُحِبٌّ, and in the L it is said to be syn. with حبٌّ, but in what sense is not explained,] An ear-ring [formed] of one حَبَّة [or bead]. (K.) حَبَّةٌ n. un. of حَبٌّ [q. v.]. (S, Msb, K.) [Hence,] جَابِرُ بْنُ حَبَّةَ a name of (assumed tropical:) Bread.

(S, K.) El-Kumeyt says, describing swords, يَرَى الرَّاؤُونَ بِالشَّفَرَاتِ مِنْهَا كَنَارِ أَبِى حُبَاحِبَ وَالظُّبِينَا [The beholders see, in the sides of the blades thereof, and the extremities, the semblance of the fire of the fire-fly]: (S:) here the poet has made حباحب imperfectly decl., regarding it as a fem. [proper] name [of the fly above mentioned]. (TA.) Or نارالحباحب (S, K) and simply الحباحب (S) signify The fire that is struck by a horse's hoofs: (Fr, S:) or the sparks of fire that are made to fly forth in the air by the collision of stones: or the sparks that fall from the pieces of wood that are used for producing fire [by means of friction]: (K:) or they are derived from حَبْحَبَةٌ, (IAar, K,) signifying “ weakness,” (IAar, TA,) [and their meaning is faint fire.] b2: أُمُّ حُبَاحِبٍ

A flying insect resembling the [species of locust called] جُنْدَب, (K, * TA,) spotted with yellow and green: when people see it, they say, بَرِّدِى

يَا حُبَاحِبُ [Spread forth thy wings (بُرْدَيْكِ), hobáhib]; whereupon it spreads its two wings, which are adorned with red and yellow. (TA.) حَبَّذَا, meaning حَبِيبٌ, as in the phrase حَبَّذَا الأَمْرُ [Loved, beloved, affected, loved, or approved, is the thing, or affair; or lovely, charming, or excellent, is it]; (K;) and in حَبَّذَا زَيْدٌ [Loved, beloved, &c., is Zeyd]; (S;) is composed of حَبَّ, (Sb, Fr, S, K,) a verb of praise, in the pret. form, invariable, originally حَبُبَ, (Fr, S,) and ذَا, (Sb, Fr, S, K,) its agent, (S,) which together constitute it a single word, (Sb, S, K,) a noun, (Sb, K,) or occupying the place of a noun, (S,) governing the noun [particularized by praise] that follows it in the nom. case; (Sb, S, K;) the place that it occupies in construction making it virtually in the nom. case as an inchoative, and the noun that follows it being its enunciative: (S:) [but see what follows.] It is used in the same manner as a prov.; (Sb, K;) [i. e., it is not altered to agree in number or gender with the noun particularized by praise, which follows it;] remaining the same when used in the dual and pl. and fem. sense; so that one says, حبّذا زَيْدٌ and الزَّيْدَانِ and الزَّيْدُونَ and هِنْدٌ and أَنْتَ and أَنْتُمَا and أَنْتُمْ [&c.]; (Ibn-Keysán, TA;) and حبّذا امْرَأَةٌ, not حَبَّذِهِ المَرْأَةُ; (Sb, S, K; *) which shows that the noun that follows it may not be regarded as a substitute for ذا: (S:) [but see what follows.] It is allowable, but bad, to say, زَيْدٌ حَبَّذَا. (TA.) [There are, however, various opinions respecting حبّذا and the noun that follows it.] Some hold that حبّذا is a noun, composed of حَبَّ and ذا, and is an inchoative, and that the noun particularized by praise is its enunciative; or that the former is an enunciative, and the latter an inchoative, reversing the usual order: others hold that حَبَّ is a verb in the pret. form; and ذا, its agent; and that the noun particularized by praise may be an inchoative, of which حبّذا is the enunciative; or it may be an enunciative of which the inchoative is suppressed, so that حبّذا زَيْدٌ is for حبّذا هُوَ زَيْدٌ [Loved, or beloved, &c., is this person: he is Zeyd], or حبّذا المَمْدُوحُ زَيْدٌ [loved, &c., is this person: the person praised is Zeyd]: others hold that حبّذا is a pret. verb, composed of حَبَّ and ذا, and that the noun following it is its agent; but this is the weakest of opinions: one also says, in dispraise, لَاحَبَّذَا زَيْدٌ. (I 'Ak p. 235.) حَابٌّ An arrow that falls [in the space] around the butt: pl. حَوَابُّ. (K.) أَحَبُّ [More, and most, loved, beloved, &c. You say, هٰذَا أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ ذَاكَ This is more an object of love, affection, liking, or approval, or is more lovely, charming, or pleasing, to me than that. And هُوَ أَحَبُّهُمْ إِلَىَّ He is the most beloved of them to me.]

(TA.) The verb is doubly trans., as meaning أَعْطَى: so in the phrase, حَمَّمَهَاخَادِمًا سَوْدَآءَ He gave her, after divorce, a black female slave: or this may be for حَمَّمَهَابِهَا. (TA.) [Hence,] ثِيَابُ التَّحِمَّة The clothing with which a man attires his wife when he gives her a gift after divorce.

If thou be a possessor of the art, or science, of physic, be a physician to thine eyes, or thine eye, or thyself;] meaning, begin by rectifying thyself. (ISk, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 902.]) b3: And [hence] طَبَّ signifies also (assumed tropical:) He acted with skill, or expertness: [and in this sense likewise the second Pers\. is probably طَبِبْتَ and طَبَبْتَ and طَبُبْتَ, of which last the inf. n. is app. طَبَابَةٌ, occurring in one of the phrases here following:] so in the saying, اِصْنَعْهُ صَنْعَةَ مَنْ طَبَّ لِمَنْ حَبَّ i. e. (assumed tropical:) Do thou it in the manner of him who acts with skill, or expertness, for him whom he loves: a prov., relating to the accomplishing an object of want skilfully and well. (El-Ahmar, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 717.]) One says also, اِعْمَلْ فِى هٰذَا عَمَلَ مَنْ طَبَّ لِمَنْ حَبَّ (assumed tropical:) [Do thou, in this, the deed of him who acts with skill, or expertness, for him whom he loves]. (M, Msb, * TA.) And مَنْ حَبَّ طَبَّ, (Meyd,) or مَنْ أَحَبَّ طَبَّ, (K,) (assumed tropical:) He who loves is skilful, or intelligent, and exercises art, or ingenuity, for him whom he loves: (Meyd:) or (assumed tropical:) he who loves executes affairs with deliberateness and gentleness. (K.) [That one says طَبُبْتَ, as well as طَبِبْتَ and طَبَبْتَ, seems to be indicated by the fact that ↓ طَبَابَةٌ, as an inf. n., is thus written, in a copy of the KL in my possession, and expl. as meaning The medical art: Golius, however, appears to have found it written, in a copy of the same work, ↓ طِبَابَةٌ, which is agreeable with analogy as inf. n. of a verb of the measure فَعَلَ significant of an art, and is probably correct: Freytag mentions the pl. طَبَائِبُ as signifying medical arts, on the authority of the Deewán of the Hudhalees.] b4: طَبَّهُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) He enchanted him, or fascinated him: (O:) and طُبَّ (tropical:) he (a man, S, A) was enchanted, or fascinated. (S, A, O. [See also طِبٌّ, below.]) b5: طَبَّ السِّقَآءَ, aor. ـُ (S, TA,) inf. n. طَبٌّ; (K, TA;) and ↓ طبّبهُ, with teshdeed to denote muchness, (S, TA,) inf. n. تطْبِيبٌ; (K, TA;) He covered the seams of the water-skin, or milk-skin, with a طِبَابَة [q. v.]: (S, K, * TA:) and طَبَّ الخُرَزَ he covered the seams with a طِبَابَة: (TA) [and]

المَزَادَة ↓ طَبَّبَتِ she (a girl, or young woman,) put [or sewed] a piece of skin called ↓ طِبَابٌ and ↓ طِبَابَةٌ, upon the place of junction [of each] of the two extremities of the loop-shaped handles of the مزادة [or leathern water-bag]; as though she rectified the مزادة thereby. (A.) 2 طَبَّّ see the last sentence above, in two places. b2: تَطْبِيبٌ also signifies The inserting a بَنِيقَة [or gore] for the purpose of widening دِيبَاج [or silk brocade]: (K, TA:) or, as in the A, one says of a tailor, طبّبِ الثَّوْبَ, meaning he added, in the garment, a بَنِيقَة [or gore], in order that it might become [more] wide. (TA.) b3: Also The hanging a سِقَآء [or milk-skin] (S, K, TA) to a pole (عَمُود, S, this is the right word, not عُود [as in copies of the K], TA) of the tent, (S,) and then agitating it to produce the butter: (S, K, TA:) but Az says, I have not heard تطبيب explained in this sense except on the authority of Lth, and I think that it is تطنيب. (TA.) 3 مُطَابَّةٌ signifies (tropical:) The seeking, or labouring, to find the means of accomplishment [of an affair, like as the physician seeks to find the means of curing a disease]; syn. مُدَاوَرَةٌ. (K, TA.) One says, أَنَا أُطَابُّ هٰذَا الأَمْرَ مُنْذُ حِينٍ كَىْ أَبْلُغَــهُ (tropical:) [I have been seeking, or labouring, to find the means of accomplishing this affair, that I might attain to it]. (A, TA.) 4 مَا أَطَبَّهُمْ How [knowing, or] skilful, or expert, are they! (Meyd, in explaining a prov. cited below, voce طَبٌّ.) 5 تطبّب He applied himself to the science of physic: (TA:) [or he applied himself to the science of physic but did not know it well: (see the part. n., below:)] or he practised physic: and he professed physic. (KL.) b2: And تطبّب لَهُ He inquired of [or consulted] the physicians for him. (TA.) 10 استطبّ لِوَجَعِهِ He asked, or sought, a medical prescription for his pain, or disease. (S, A, Msb, K.) b2: And جَآءَ يَسْتَطِبُّ لإِبِلِهِ (tropical:) He came asking, or seeking, for his she-camels, a gentle stallion, that would not injure them. (A.) R. Q. 1 طَبْطَبَ, (Lth, K, TA,) inf. n. طَبْطَبَةٌ, (Lth, TA,) said of a valley, or water-course, (Lth, K, TA,) It flowed with water so that one heard it to make a sound like طَبْ طَبْ: (Lth, TA:) or it made a sound (K, TA) with the water. (TA.) طَبْطَبَةٌ signifies The sounding of water (IAar, S, K, TA) when in a state of commotion and collision, (IAar, TA,) and of the like, (S, TA,) and of the dashing of a torrent. (K.) And ↓ تَطَبْطَبَ It made a sound, or noise, [like طَبْ طَبْ,] said of water and the like, (S,) and of a woman's breast: (TA:) a poet says, إِذَا طَحَنَتْ دُرْنِيَّةٌ لِعِيَالِهَا تَطَبْطَبَ ثَدْيَاهَا فَطَارَ طَحِينُهَا

[When a woman of Durnà grinds for her family, her breasts make a sound by their collision, and her flour flies away]. (S, TA.) A2: طَبْطَبَ المَآءَ He put the water into a state of commotion. (TA.) R. Q. 2 تَطَبْطَبَ: see the next preceding paragraph.

طَبٌّ: see طِبٌّ.

A2: It is also an inf. n. used as an epithet: see طَبِيبٌ. (Msb.) b2: And, (S, A, Msb, K,) as such, i. e. an inf. n. used as an epithet, or by original application, but the former is app. the case, and some have mentioned likewise ↓ طبٌّ and ↓ طُبٌّ, (MF, TA,) (tropical:) Knowing, or possessing knowledge, (S, A, Msb, TA,) respecting a thing, or of a thing; (A, Msb, TA;) and so ↓ طَبِيبٌ: (TA:) and (TA) (assumed tropical:) skilful, or expert; (T, K;) as also ↓ طَبِيبٌ: (T, S, K:) and (tropical:) gentle; (Nh, TA;) and so too ↓ طَبِيبٌ. (TA.) One says, فُلَانٌ طَبٌّ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) Such a one is knowing with regard to, or is one possessing knowledge of, such a thing. (TA.) And القَوْمُ طَبُّونَ, or, as some relate it, ↓ القَوْمُ مَا أَطَبُّونَ, is a prov.: the former means (assumed tropical:) The people, or party, are knowing, or skilful, or expert: and [Meyd says,] I know not any way in which the latter is explainable unless ↓ أَطَبُّ be syn. with طَبٌّ, like أَخْشَنُ and خَشِنٌ, &c., and ما a connective. (Meyd.) To a man who offered to cure the [so-called] seal, or stamp, of the prophetic office between the Prophet's shoulder-blades, asserting himself to be a طَبِيب [or physician], the Prophet replied, ↓ طَبِيبُهَا الَّذِّى خَلَقَهَا, meaning (assumed tropical:) He who has knowledge respecting it is He who created it. (TA.) and El-Marrár El-Fak'asee says, تَدِينُ لِمَزْرُورٍ إِلَى جَنْبِ حَلْقَةٍ

↓ مِنَ الشِّبْهِ سَوَّاهَا بِرِفْقٍ طَبِيبُهَا (assumed tropical:) [She obeys a plaited nose-rein attached to the side of a ring of brass, the skilful maker of which has fashioned it with gentleness]: (S, L:) i. e. the she-camel of which he speaks obeys her rein that is tied to her nose-ring of brass. (L.) [Hence,] فَحْلٌ طَبٌّ (assumed tropical:) A stallion [camel] expert in covering, (S, Msb, K, TA,) as also ↓ طَبِيبٌ; (Msb;) that knows the she-camel that is pregnant from her that is not, and her that desires the stallion from her that is covered without desire, and the motion of the fœtus in the womb, &c.: (TA:) or (tropical:) that is gentle, and does not injure the female that he covers. (A, TA.) And بَعِيرٌ طَبٌّ (tropical:) A camel that is mindful, or careful, as to the place of his foot, (A, K, TA,) where to tread with it: or that does not place his foot save where he sees.

(K.) b2: [And Knowledge]. قَرُبَ طِبٌّ [Knowledge is near], or, as some relate it, قَرُبَ طِبًّا, (Meyd, O, K, TA,) with the noun in the accus. case, as a specificative, (TA,) like the phrase نِعْمَ رَجُلًا, (Meyd, O, TA,) is a prove.: originally said by a woman to a man who asked her an indecent question which he was himself about to resolve: (Meyd, O, K, TA:) it is like the saying, أَنْتَ عَلَى المُجَرَّبِ [q. v.]: (Meyd, TA:) and is related on the authority of Ibn-Háni. (TA.) b3: And Skill, or expertness. (T, ISd, Meyd, TA.) This is said in the T to be the primary signification. (TA. [But see طَبِيبٌ.]) b4: And (tropical:) Gentleness; gentle treatment or conduct. (K, TA.) b5: And (tropical:) Enchantment, or fascination: (S, O, K, TA: but only طِبٌّ is mentioned in this sense in the S and O:) used in this sense as ominating cure.

(K.) b7: and (tropical:) State, condition, or case; syn. شَأْنٌ, (K, TA,) and دَأْبٌ: (A, TA:) [or by the latter of these two words may be meant what here follows:] custom, habit, or wont. (S, K, TA.) One says, مَاذَاكَ بِطِبِّى (tropical:) That is not my custom, habit, or wont. (S, A, TA.) [See also another ex., in a verse (added here in the S and TA) which I have cited voce إِنْ, page 107, col. iii.]

طِبَّةٌ An oblong piece, or portion, of a garment, or of a piece of cloth, (S, A, TA,) as also ↓ طَبِيبَةٌ; (A;) and likewise of skin: or a square piece of the latter: and a round piece in a مَزَادَة and a سُفْرَة and the like: (TA:) pl. طِبَبٌ: (S:) and, as also ↓ طِبَابَةٌ, (As, S, TA,) (assumed tropical:) a streak in sand and clouds, (As, TA,) or a streak of sand or clouds: (S:) or طِبَّةٌ and ↓ طِبَابَةٌ and ↓ طَبِيبَةٌ signify an oblong piece, or portion, of a garment or piece of cloth, and of skin, and (assumed tropical:) of land or ground, and (assumed tropical:) of clouds: (K:) or, all three words, a long strip of a garment or piece of cloth, and of skin, and (assumed tropical:) of sand, and (assumed tropical:) of clouds: (TA:) and (assumed tropical:) a long and narrow tract of land abounding with plants or herbage: (AHn, TA; and A in explanation of the first word:) pl. [of the first] طِبَبٌ and [of the same, or of the third, or a coll. gen. n. of which the second word is the n. un.,] ↓ طِبَابٌ. (K.) And sometimes طِبَّةٌ is applied to The piece that is sewed upon the edge of the leathern bucket and upon that of the سُفْرَة: and the pl. is طِبَبٌ and ↓ طِبَابٌ. (M, TA.) طِبَبُ شُعَاعِ الشَّمْسِ (As, S, TA) and ↓ الطِّبَابُ, (As, TA,) or طِبَبُ الشَّمْسِ and ↓ طِبَابُهَا, (A, TA,) signify (tropical:) The streaks that are seen in the rays, or beams, of the sun when it rises.

[One of these two explanations is app. a mistranscription for the other.] b3: and one says, إِنَّكَ لَتَلْقَى فُلَانًا عَلَى طِبَبٍ مُخْتَلِفَةٍ, meaning, عَلَى أَلْوَانٍ (tropical:) [i. e. Verily thou wilt find such a one to be of various moods, dispositions, or characters]. (A, TA.) طِبَابٌ [like عِلَاجٌ] A thing that is used for medical, or curative, treatment: so in the saying, ذَا طِبَابُ هٰذِهِ العِلَّةِ [This, or that, is what is used for the medical, or curative, treatment of this disease]. (A, TA.) A2: See also طِبَّةٌ, latter half, in four places. And see طِبَابَةٌ, in five places: and 1, last sentence.

طَبِيبٌ (S, Msb, K, TA) and ↓ طَبٌّ (Msb, TA) [A physician;] one skilled in الطِّبّ [i. e. medical, therapeutical, or curative, treatment]; (S, TA;) or one who practises medical, therapeutical, or curative, treatment; (Msb;) and ↓ مُتَطَبِّبٌ signifies [likewise one who practises physic: and a professor of physic: (see its verb:) or] one who applies himself to the science of physic: (S, K, TA:) or one who applies himself to that science but does not know it well: (Nh, TA:) it has been said that the طَبِيب is so called from the same epithet as signifying “ skilful, or expert; ”

but this is not a valid assertion: (TA:) the pl. (of pauc., S) is أَطِبَّةٌ (S, K) and (of mult., S) أَطِبَّآءُ. (S, Msb, K.) b2: The first of these words (طبيب) occurs in a trad. as meaning (tropical:) A judge; being metonymically thus used, because the office of him who judges between litigants is like that of the طبيب who cures diseases of the body. (TA.) [And hence, طَبِيبُ العَرَبِ: see فَقِيهُ العَرَبِ, in art. فقه.] See also طَبٌّ, in six places.

[or coll. gen. n.] is ↓ طِبَابٌ: (M, TA:) or, accord. to the K, a strip of skin that is in the lower part of a قِرْبَة, between the two seams; as also ↓ طُبَّةٌ: but in this explanation, its author has confounded the words of Lth, who says that طِبَابَةٌ signifies the strip of the skin that is between the two seams; and ↓ طُبَّةٌ, the strip of skin that is in the lower part of the قِرْبَة, and that contracts the seams [so I render يقارب الخرز, but the meaning of this phrase is not, to me, clear]. (TA.) See also 1, last sentence. b2: and see طِبَّةٌ, in two places. b3: Also, and ↓ طِبَابٌ, (K, TA, in the CK طَباب and طَبابة,) [or the latter is a coll. gen. n.,] (assumed tropical:) A streak, or narrow elongated tract, of the sky: (K, TA:) [and app. any portion of the sky not of large extent:] an ex. of the latter word occurs in a verse cited voce مَرَاكِدُ: and in another verse, a man in a prison is described as seeing only a طِبَابَة of the sky like a shield; i. e. a round portion thereof. (Az, TA.) طَبِيبَةٌ, see طِبَّةٌ, in two places.

طِبِّىٌّ Medical, therapeutical, or curative; of, or relating to, medical, therapeutical, or curative, treatment. (Msb.) طَبْطَبَةٌ A certain broad thing, one part of which is struck with another part thereof.

As though her two breasts, when they come forth unexpectedly (a meaning of ابرنتى expl. in the L, in art. برت, on the authority of Lh, but it is here expl. in the TA as signifying انتصب, so that the phrase may be rendered either when appearing unexpectedly, or when standing out), were two round boxes of ivory, excellently cut out, or shaped, and made smooth in their surfaces]: (O, TA: *) regarding them as one member, he has made the verb singular.
