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.

أَزْجَى More penetrating and effective in an affair than another: (S, K:) so in the saying, فُلَانٌ أَزْجَى بِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ مِنْ فُلَانٍ [Such a one is more penetrating and effective in this affair than such a one]. (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. Time that requires men to push it on, or to make it to pass away by means-of exertion.]

مِزْجَآءٌ A man who urges on much the camel, or beast, that he rides. (TA.)

فن

ى1 فَنِىَ, (T, S, M, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـْ (T, M, Msb, K;) and فَنَى, aor. ـْ (M, K,) which is extr., mentioned by Kr, and said by him to be of the dial. of Belhárith Ibn-Kaab; (M;) the former of the two verbs being that which is commonly known; (TA;) inf. n. فَنَآءٌ, (T, S, M, Msb, K, &c.,) which is of both of the verbs; (TA;) It (i. e. a thing, S, Msb, TA) passed away and came to an end; vanished away; became spent, or exhausted; failed entirely; ceased, perished, or came to nought; or was, or became, transitory, evanescent, or non-existent; the inf. n. being syn. with نَفَادٌ; (Aboo-'Alee El-Kálee, TA;) contr. of بَقَآءٌ; (M, TA;) and the pret. being syn. with عُدِمَ: (K, TA:) it is said of every created thing that it is subject to الفَنَآء. (Msb.) [Hence] دَارُ الفَنَآءِ [The abode of transitoriness, evanescence, or perishableness,] means the present world. (T in art. دور.) b2: And, said of a man, (T, M, K,) i. e. فَنِىَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, (M,) (tropical:) He was, or became, extremely aged; or old and infirm; syn. هَرِمَ: (M, K:) or he became on the verge of death by reason of extreme age or of age and infirmity. (T.) Lebeed says, حَبَائِلُهُ مَبْثُوثَةٌ بِسَبِيلهِ وَيَفْنَى إِذَا مَا أَخْطَأَتْهُ الحَبَائِلُ (T, M,) meaning [His snares are spread in his way, and when the snares fail to catch him] he becomes old and infirm and so dies: (T:) or it means, when death misses him he becomes old and infirm. (M.) 3 فاناهُ, (T, S, M, K,) inf. n. مُفَانَاةٌ, (T, TA,) He (a man, S, M) soothed, or coaxed, him: (AA, T, S, M, K:) and, (M,) accord. to El-Umawee, (T, S,) he stilled, or quieted, him. (T, S, M.) El-Kumeyt says, (S, M,) mentioning anxieties, (M,) تُقِيمُهُ تَارَةً وَتُقْعِدُهُ كَمَ يُفَانِى الشَّمُوسَ قَائِدُهَا [They rouse him at one time, and at another time they render him sedate like as her leader soothes, or coaxes, or like as he stills, or quiets, the refractory mare]. (S, M: in the T, accord. to the TT, the verse ends with رَائِدُهَا [her pastor], instead of قَائِدُهَا.) Accord. to IAar, فاناهُ signifies واِجاهُ [app. a mistranscription for وَاخَاهُ, originally آخَاهُ, He fraternized with him; or acted with him in a brotherly manner]. (TA.) [Hence the phrase]

أُفَانِى الأَيَّامَ i. e. أُزَجِّى الزَّمَانَ [meaning I make the time to pass away easily; as though beguiling it]. (Har p. 607.) b2: And one says, بَنُو فُلَانٍ مَا يُعَانُونَ مَالَهُمْ وَلَا يُفَانُونَهُ i. e. The sons of such a one do not tend, or take care of, their cattle, or camels, or [other] property, and do not manage the same well. (T.) 4 افناهُ He, or it, caused it, or him, to pass away and come to an end; to vanish away; to become spent, or exhausted; to fail entirely; to cease, perish, or come to nought; he, or it, did away with, destroyed, or annihilated, it, or him; (T, S, * M, Msb, * K, TA;) trans. of فَنِىَ. (T, S, Msb, K.) The saying of a rájiz, (T, TA,) namely, Abu-n-Nejm, (TA,) describing a pastor of sheep or goats, يَقُولُ لَيْتَ اللّٰهَ قَدْ أَفْنَاهَا (T, TA,) may mean an imprecation against them, i. e. He says, would that God had destroyed them: (T:) b2: or it means, would that God had made to grow for them [the plant called] الفَنَى, i. e. عِنَبُ الثَّعْلَبِ; so that they might have abundance of milk, and become fat. (T, TA.) 6 تَفَانَوا, (S, K,) or تفانوا قَتْلًا, (M,) They destroyed one another, (S, M, K,) [or they shared, one with another, in destruction, (see an ex. in a verse cited voce دَقَّ,) by slaughter,] in war, or battle. (S.) الفَنَى, thus, with ى, in the M, and thus it should be written accord. to Aboo-'Alee El-Kálee, in the T and S with ا, and in like manner in the K, in which it is [mentioned in art. فنو, and] written without the article ال (فَنًا), and said to be a pl., of which the sing. is ↓ الفَنَاة, (TA,) [The plant called] عِنَبُ الثَّعْلَبِ; [see art. ثعلب; and see also الأَفَانِى, in this art.;] (T, S, M, K;) whereof one is called ↓ فَنَاةٌ: (S:) or, as some say, another plant; (T;) [i. e.,] as some say, a species of trees, or plants, (شَجَرٌ,) having red berries, (حَبّ), (S,) of which necklaces are made, (S,) or the unbroken of which are made use of as قَرَارِيط [meaning carat-weights] with which to weigh, every berry (حَبَّة) being a قِيرَاط: and some say that it is a herb that grows in rugged places, rising from the ground to the height of the measure of a finger, and less, and depastured by the cattle. (M.) فَنَاةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places: A2: and see also art. فنو.

فِنَآءٌ A yard, or an exterior court, i. e. a wide space, (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) in front, (T, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) or extending from the sides, (S, Msb,) of a house: (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) pl. أَفْنِيَةٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and فُنِىٌّ: (K:) and ثِنَآءٌ [q. v.] signifies the same. (T, M.) فَانٍ part. n. of فَنِىَ [i. e. signifying Passing away and coming to an end; &c.]. (T.) b2: and (tropical:) An old man extremely aged, or old and infirm; (M, * Msb, K, * TA;) so called because of his nearness to passing away, or perishing: (Msb:) or an old man whose faculties have entirely failed. (Mgh.) And فَانِيَةٌ occurs in a trad., applied to a she-camel, or to camels, as meaning (assumed tropical:) Advanced in age. (TA.) b3: [فَانٍ فِى اللّٰهِ, in the language of the mystics, means (assumed tropical:) Lost in contemplation of God, and insensible to all else.]

أَفْنَآءٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ is expl. in art. فنو.

الأَفَانِى [without the article أَفَانٍ] is the name of A species of plant, (T, S, K,) yellow, and red; (T;) [said to be so called] while fresh and succulent; (S;) accord. to AA, (T,) when it has dried up, it is called الحَمَاطُ; (S, T;) but this is a mistake; for الافانى signifies a particular species of plant by itself, of the herbs, or leguminous plants, termed ذُكُور, which dries up, and becomes scattered; whereas the حماط is the حَلبة [a mistranscription for حَلَمَة], and this does not dry up, because it is of the [kind called] جَنْبَة and عُرْوَة (T:) the n. un. is أَفَانِيَةٌ, (T, S.) like ثَمَانِيَةٌ [in measure]. (S.) And it is said to signify also [The plant called] عِنَبُ الثَّعْلَبِ. (S. [See also الفَنَى, above.]) مَفْنَاةٌ A land (أَرْضٌ) suitable to those who alight and abide therein: (K, TA:) it occurs, in a verse of Keys Ibn-El-'Eyzár El-Hudhalee, with ق, [as some relate that verse,] but As says that in the dial. of Hudheyl it is with ف. (TA in art. قنى.)
