tropical:) hasten thou, with her, i. e. with thy husbandless woman, marriage]. (
TA.) One says also عَجَّلْتُمْ like as one says لَهَّنْتُمْ [i. e. Ye supplied, or fed, with the early portion of food called لُهْنَة; which is also called عَجُول, or عِجَّوْل, &c.]. (
S,
TA. [For لَهَّنْتُمْ, Golius appears to have read لَهَّيْتُمْ, which is evidently wrong.])

M and
K in art. بدر;) namely, a thing. (
M ibid.) And عاجل غَيْرَهُ إِلَيْهِ
i. q. بَدَرَهُ اليه, (
M and
K in art. بدر,) like بَادَرَهُ اليه [He hastened with another, or vied or strove with him in hastening, to it, or to do, or attain, or obtain, it]. (

b2: [Also He dealt hastily with him.] And عاجلهُ بِذَنْبِهِ He punished him for his sin, or crime, or offence, (أَخَذَهُ بِهِ,) not granting him any delay, (

S,
Mgh,
Msb,
TA,)
inf. n. إِعْجَالٌ; (
TA;) and ↓ عجّلهُ,
inf. n. تَعْجِيلٌ; (

S,
Mgh,
Msb,

TA;) and commanded, or bade, him, to haste, &c. (
K.) One says, أَعْجَلَنِىفَعَجِلْتُ لَهُ [He incited me, &c., to haste, &c., and I hasted, &c., to him]. (

TA:) and بِنَفْسِهِ ↓ استعجل signifies He hastened himself. (
MA.)
b2: اعجلهُ signifies also [He incited him to haste, &c., by going before him: and hence it is
expl. as meaning also] سَبَقَهُ [i. e. he preceded him, or it; he had, got, or took, precedence of him, or it; he was, or became, beforehand with him, or it; or he anticipated him, or it]; as also ↓ عجّلهُ; and ↓ استعجلهُ: (

S, O:) or have ye left [the fulfilment of] the command of your Lord incomplete? (
Ksh,
Bd;) عَجِلَ being made to imply, (
Ksh,) or as though it were made to imply, (
Bd,) the meaning of سَبَقَ, wherefore it is made
trans. like this latter verb; (
Ksh,
Bd;) the phrase meaning أَعَجِلْتُمْ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّكُمْ. (
Ksh.) وَمَا أَعْجَلَكَ عَنْ قَوْمِكَ, in the
Kur [xx. 85,
lit. And what caused thee to hasten from thy party?], means [virtually] كَيْفَ سَبَقْتَهُمْ [i. e. how is it that thou camest before thy party?]. (

أَعْجَلَهُ عَنْ أَدَائِهَا, meaning مَنَعَهُ [i. e. The perishing of the cattle, or property, prevented, or precluded, him from paying it], namely, the زَكَاة [or poor-rate]; which is an instance of the extension of the signification. (

عِجْلٌ A calf the young one of the بَقَرَة, (Aboo-Kheyreh,
S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,
K,) [both domestic and wild, which latter is a bovine antelope,] from the time when his mother brings him forth (Aboo-Kheyreh,
Mgh,
TA) until a month old; (Aboo-Kheyreh,
Mgh,
Msb,
TA;) after which [
accord. to some] he is called بَرْغَزٌ, when about two months old; and then he is called فَرْقَدٌ: (Aboo-Kheyreh,
TA:) or he is thus called while in the first year, then تَبِيعٌ, (
S and
Sgh and
K in art. سلغ,) or, correctly,
accord. to
IB, he is called while in the first year عِجْلٌ and تَبِيعٌ, (
TA in that art.,) then جَذَعٌ, then ثَنِىٌّ, then رَبَاعٍ, then سَدِيسٌ, then سَالِغُ سَنَةٍ and سَالِغُ سَنَتَيْنِ and so on: (
S and
Sgh and
K ibid.:) the
fem. is with ة: (Abu-l-Jarráh,
S,
O,
Msb:)
pl. of the
masc. عِجَلَةٌ (
Mgh,
Msb) and عُجُولٌ (
Msb,
TA) and, of pauc., أَعْجِلَةٌ and أَعْجَالٌ; (
IB,
TA;) [and of the
fem. عِجَلٌ;] but as to عِجَالٌ as a
pl., [
Mtr says,] I have not heard it: (
Mgh:) and ↓ عِجَّوْلٌ signifies the same as عِجْلٌ; (
S,
Mgh,
O,
K;)
fem. with ة; (
TA;) and
pl. عَجَاجِيلُ. (
S,
Mgh,
O,
K.) عَجَلٌ and ↓ عَجَلَةٌ, both
inf. ns. of عَجِلَ [
q. v.], (
Mgh,
Msb,) are
Syn. with سُرْعَةٌ; (
K;)
contr. of بُطْءٌ: (
S, O:) the latter is
expl. by
Th as signifying the seeking, and pursuing, or endeavouring after, a thing before its proper time, or season; and as proceeding from the desire of the soul; wherefore it is generally discommended in the
Kur-án, so that it is said to be from the Devil. (
TA.) It is said in the
Kur [xxi. 38], خُلِقَ الْإِنْسَانُ مِنْ عَجَلٍ, meaning, it is said, Man is composed of haste; (O;) so says
Fr, and in like manner says Aboo-Is-hák; (
T,
TA;) to denote the excess of this
attribute in him: (
T,
O,
TA:) or,
accord. to
Th, (
TA,) the phrase is inverted, the meaning being, haste is created from man; (
Msb,
TA;) but
IJ disapproves this explanation, and also another which will be mentioned in what follows. (
TA.)
A2: عَجَلٌ signifies also Food that is hastily prepared, and brought, before the [meal called] غَدَآء has become matured. (
TA.) [See also عُجَّالٌ.]
A3: Also Clay, or earth;
syn. طِينٌ: (
IAar,
O,
K:) or black mud, or black fetid mud;
syn. حَمْأَةٌ: and ↓ عَجَلَةٌ has both of these meanings, i. e. طِينٌ and حَمْأَةٌ: (
O, *
K:) the former of these two significations of عَجَلٌ is said by
AO to be of the
dial. of Himyer; and
IAar says that it is what is meant in the phrase in the
Kur [xxi. 38] cited above; but Ibn-'Arafeh disapproves this; (
O,
TA;) and so does
Az; and
Er-Rághib says that some
expl. it as meaning in this instance stinking black mud, but that their saying is nought. (
TA.)
A4: See also عَجَلَةٌ, in four places.

K:) pls., (
K,
TA,) all of ↓ عَجْلَانُ, (

K,
TA;) the first and last of which pls., as pls. of عَجْلَى [
fem. of عَجْلَانُ], are applied to women (
S,
O,
TA) also: (
TA:) عَجِلٌ has no
broken pl., nor has ↓ عَجُلٌ: (
Sb,
TA:)
ISk says that, for the
dim. of عَجِلٌ, they use ↓ عُجَيْلَانُ, as formed from عَجْلَانُ; though they also form it regularly, saying ↓ عُجَيْلٌ; but the former is the better. (
O,
TA.) عُجْلَةٌ: see عُجَالَةٌ.

O,
TA:) and it is said to be a tree having leaves and joints, or knots, (كُعُوب,) and pliant canes, [for قضب in my original, I read قَصَب, (see وَشِيجٌ,)] long, or elongated, with a fruit like the foot of the domestic fowl, contracted, which, when it dries up, opens; and not having any blossom. (
