1 أَلَهَ, (S, and so in some copies of the K,) with fet-h, (S,) or أَلِهَ, (Mgh, Msb, and so in some copies of the K,) like تَعِبَ, aor. ـَ (Msb,) inf. n. إِلَاهَةٌ (S, Msb, K) and أُلُوهَةٌ and أُلُوهِيَّپٌ, (K,) He served, worshipped, or adored; syn. عَبَدَ. (S, Msb, K.) Hence the reading of I'Ab, [in the Kur vii. 124,] وَيَذَرَكَ وَإِلَاهَتَكَ [And leave thee, and the service, or worship, or adoration, of thee; instead of وَآلِهَتَكَ and thy gods, which is the common reading]; for he used to say that Pharaoh was worshipped, and did not worship: (S:) so, too, says, Th: and IB says that the opinion of I'Ab is strengthened by the sayings of Pharaoh [mentioned in the Kur lxxix. 24 and xxviii. 38], “I am your lord the most high,” and “I did not know any god of yours beside me.” (TA.) A2: أَلِهَ, aor. ـَ (S, K,) inf. n. أَلَهٌ, (S,) He was, or became, confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course; (S, K;) originally وَلِهَ. (S.) b2: أَلِهَ عَلَي فُلَانٍ He was, or became, vehemently impatient, or affected with vehement grief, or he manifested vehement grief and agitation, on account of such a one; (S, K;) like وَلِهَ. (S.) b3: أَلِهَ إِلَيْهِ He betook himself to him by reason of fright or fear, seeking protection; or sought, or asked, aid, or succour, of him: he had recourse, or betook himself, to him for refuge, protection, or preservation. (K.) b4: أَلِهَ بِالمَكَانِ He remained, stayed, abode, or dwelt, in the place. (MF.) A3: أَلَهَهُ, (K,) like مَنَعَهُ, (TA,) [in the CK اَلِهَهُ,] He protected him; granted him refuge; preserved, saved, rescued, or liberated, him; aided, or succoured, him; or delivered him from evil: he rendered him secure, or safe. (K.) 2 تَأْلِيهٌ [inf. n. of أَلَّهَهُ He made him, or took him as, a slave; he enslaved him;] i. q. تَعْبِيدٌ. (S, K.) b2: [The primary signification of أَلَّهَهُ seems to be, He made him to serve, worship, or adore. b3: Accord. to Freytag, besides having the former of the two meanings explained above, it signifies He reckoned him among gods; held him to be a god; made him a god: but he does not mention his authority.]5 تألّه He devoted himself to religious services or exercises; applied himself to acts of devotion. (JK, S, Msb, K.) أُلْهَانِيَّةٌ: see إِلَاهَةٌ.

إِلهٌ, or إِلَاهٌ, [the former of which is the more common mode of writing the word,] is of the measure فعَالٌ (S, Msb, K) in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, (S, Msb,) like كِتَابٌ in the sense of مَكْتُوبٌ, and بِسَاطٌ in the sense of مَبْسُوطً, (Msb,) meaning ↓ مَأْلْوةٌ [An object of worship or adoration; i. e. a god, a deity]; (S, Msb, K) anything that is taken as an object of worship or adoration, accord. to him who takes it as such: (K:) with the article ال, properly, i. q. اللّٰهُ; [sec this word below;] but applied by the believers in a plurality of gods to what is worshipped by them to the exclusion of اللّٰه: (Msb:) pl. آلِهَةٌ: (Msb, TA:) which signifies idols: (JK, S, TA:) in the K, this meaning is erroneously assigned to إِلَاهَةٌ: (TA:) [not so in the CK; but there, الالِهَةُ is put in a place where we should read الإِلَاهَةُ, or إِلَاهَةُ without the article:] ↓ الإِلَاهَةُ [is the fem. of الإِلَاهُ, and] signifies [the goddess: and particularly] the serpent: [(a meaning erroneously assigned in the CK to الآلِهَةُ; as also other meanings here following:) because it was a special object of the worship of some of the ancient Arabs:] (K:) or the great serpent: (Th:) and the [new moon; or the moon when it is termed]

هِلَال: (Th, K:) and, (S, K,) as also ↓ إِلَاهَةُ, without ال, the former perfectly decl., and the latter imperfectly decl., (S,) and ↓ الأُلَاهَةُ, (IAar, K,) and ↓ أُلَاهَةُ, (IAar, TA,) and ↓ الأَلَاهَةُ, (K,) [and app. ↓ أَلَاهَةُ,] and ↓ الأَلِيهَةُ, (K,) the sun; (S, K;) app. so called because of the honour and worship which they paid to it: (S:) or the hot sun. (Th, TA.) [إِلهٌ is the same as the Hebrew אֱלוֹהַּ and The Chaldee XXX; and is of uncertain derivaTion: accord. To some,] it is originally وِلَاهٌ, like as إِشَاحٌ is originally وِشَاحٌ; meaning that mankind yearn towards him who is thus called, [seeking protection or aid,] in their wants, and humble themselves to him in their afflictions, like as every infant yearns towards its mother. (TA.) [See also the opinions, cited below, on the derivation of اللّٰهُ.]

أَلَهَةُ and الأَلَاهَةُ: see إِلهٌ.

أُلَاهَةُ and الأُلَاهَةُ: see إِلهٌ.

A2: أُلَاهَةٌ: see إِلَاهَةٌ.

إِلَاهَةٌ inf. n. of 1, q. v. (S, Msb, K.) A2: Godship; divinity; (K;) as also ↓ أُلَاهَةٌ (CK [not found by me in any MS. copy of the K) and ↓ أُلْهَانِيَّةٌ. (K.) A3: إِلَاهَةُ and الإِلَاهَةُ: see إِلهٌ.

الأَلِيهَةُ: see إِلهٌ.

إِلهِىٌّ, or إِلَاهِىٌّ, Of, or relating to, God or a god; divine; theological: Hence, العِلْمُ الإِلهِىُّ or الإِلَاهِىٌّ: see what next follows.]

الإِلهِيَّةُ, or الإِلَاهِيَّةُ, Theology; the science of the being and attributes of God, and of the articles of religious belief; also termed عِلْمُ الإِلهِيَّاتِ or الإِلَاهِيَّاتِ, and ↓ العِلْمُ الإِلهِىُّ or الإِلَاهِىُّ.]

اللّٰهُ, [written with the disjunctive alif اَللّٰهُ, meaning God, i. e. the only true god,] accord. to the most correct of the opinions respecting it, which are twenty in number, (K,) or more than thirty, (MF,) is a proper name, (Msb, K,) applied to the Being who exists necessarily, by Himself, comprising all the attributes of perfection; (TA;) a proper name denoting the true god, comprising all the excellent divine names; a unity comprising all the essences of existing things; (Ibn-El- 'Arabee, TA;) the ال being inseparable from it: (Msb:) not derived: (Lth, Msb, K:) or it is originally إِلهٌ, or إِلَاهٌ, (Sb, A Heyth, S, Msb, K,) of the measure فِعَالٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, meaning مَأْلُوهٌ, (S, K, *) with [the article]

ال prefixed to it, (Sb, A Heyth, S, Msb,) so that it becomes الإِلَاهُ, (Sb, A Heyth, Msb,) then the vowel of the hemzeh is transferred to the ل [before it], (Msb,) and the hemzeh is suppressed, (Sb, A Heyth, S, Msb,) so that there remains اللّٰهُ, or الِلَاهُ, after which the former ل is made quiescent, and incorporated into the other: (Sb, A Heyth, Msb:) the suppression of the hemzeh is for the purpose of rendering the word easy of utterance, on account of the frequency of its occurrence: and the ال is not a substitute for the hemzeh; for were it so, it would not occur therewith in الإِلَاهُ: (S:) so says J; but IB says that this is not a necessary inference, because الإِلَاهُ applies to God (اللّٰهُ) and also to the idol that is worshipped; whereas اللّٰهُ applies only to God; and therefore, in using the vocative form of address, one may say, يَا اَللّٰهُ [O God], with the article ال and with the disjunctive hemzeh; but one may not say, يَا الإِلَاهُ either with the disjunctive or with the conjunctive hemzeh: (TA:) Sb allows that it may be originally لَاهٌ: see art. ليه: (S:) some say that it is from أَلِهَ, either because minds are confounded, or perplexed, by the greatness, or majesty, of God, or because He is the object of recourse for protection, or aid, in every case: or from أَلَهَهُ, meaning “he protected him,” &c., as explained above: see 1, last sentence. (TA.) The ال is pronounced with the disjunctive hemzeh in using the vocative form of address [يَا اَللّٰهُ] because it is inseparably prefixed as an honourable distinction of this name; (S;) or because a pause upon the vocative particle is intended in honour of the name; (S in art. ليه;) and AAF says that it is also thus pronounced in a form of swearing; as in أَفَاَللّٰهِ لَتَفْعَلَنَّ [an elliptical phrase, as will be shown below, meaning Then, by God, wilt thou indeed do such a thing?]; though he denies its being thus pronounced because it is inseparable; regarding it as a substitute for the suppressed hemzeh of الإِلَاهُ: (S in the present art.:) Sb mentions this pronunciation in يَا اَللّٰهُ; and Th mentions the pronunciation of يَا اللّٰهُ also, with the conjunctive hemzeh: Ks, moreover, mentions, as used by the Arabs, the phrase يَلَهْ اَغْفِرْلِى [O God, forgive me], for يَا اللّٰهُ; but this is disapproved. (ISd, TA.) The word is pronounced in the manner termed تَفْخِيم, [i. e., with the broad sound of the lengthened fet-h, and with a full sound of the letter ل,] for the purpose of showing honour to it; but when it is preceded by a kesreh, [as in بِاللّٰهِ By God, and بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ In the name of God,] it is pronounced in the [contr.] manner termed تَرْقِيق: AHát says that some of the vulgar say, لَاوَاللّٰهْ [No, by God], suppressing the alif, which should necessarily be uttered, as in الرَّحْمنُ, which is in like manner written without alif; and he adds that some person has composed a verse in which the alif [in this word] is suppressed, erroneously. (Msb.) You say, اَللّٰهَ اللّٰهَ فِى كَذَا, [a verb being understood,] meaning Fear ye God, fear ye God, with respect to such a thing. (Marginal note in a copy of the Jámi' es-Sagheer. [See another ex. voce كَرَّةٌ.]) And اَللّٰهَ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ and اَللّٰهِ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ [By God, I will assuredly do such a thing]: in the former is understood a verb significant of swearing; and in the latter, [or in both, for a noun is often put in the accus. case because of a particle understood,] a particle [such as بِ or وَ] denoting an oath. (Bd in ii. 1.) and لِلهِ مَا فَعَلْتُ, meaning وَاللّٰهِ مَا فَعَلْتُ [By God, I did not, or have not done, such a thing]. (JK.) And لِلّهِ دَرُّكَ (tropical:) To God be attributed thy deed! (A in art. در:) or the good that hath proceeded from thee! or thy good deed! or thy gift! and what is received from thee! [and thy flow of eloquence! and the like]: a phrase expressive of admiration of anything: (TA in art. در:) [when said to an eloquent speaker or poet, it may be rendered divinely art thou gifted!]. And لِلّهِ دَرُّهُ (tropical:) To God be attributed his deed! [&c.]. (S and K in art. در.) And لِلّهِ القَائِلُ [meaning To God be attributed (the eloquence of) the sayer! or] how good, or beautiful, is the saying of the sayer, or of him who says [such and such words]! or it is like the phrase لِلّهِ دَرُّهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) To God be attributed his goodness! and his pure action! (Har p. 11.) And لِلّهِ فُلَانٌ [To God be attributed (the excel-lence, or goodness, or deed, &c., of) such a one!] explained by Az as meaning wonder ye at such a one: how perfect is he! (Har ibid.) [And لِلّهِ أَبُوكَ: see art. ابو.] And لَاهِ أَنْتَ, meaning لِلّهِ أَنْتَ [lit. To God be thou attributed! i. e. to God be attributed thine excellence! or thy goodness! or thy deed! &c.]. (JK.) [Similar to لِلّهِ, thus used, is the Hebrew expression לֵאלֹהּים after an epithet signifying “great” or the like.] إِنَّالِلّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ, in the Kur [ii. 151], said on the occasion of an affliction, means Verily to God we belong, as property and servants, He doing with us what He willeth, and verily unto Him we return in the ultimate state of existence, and He will recompense us. (Jel.) Az mentions the phrase الحَمْدُلَاهِ [meaning الحَمْدُلِلّهِ Praise be to God]: but this is not allowable in the Kur-án: it is only related as heard from the Arabs of the desert, and those not knowing the usage of the Kur-án. (Az, TA.) b2: ↓ اَللّهُمَّ is an expression used in prayer; as also لَاهُمَّ; (JK, Msb;) meaning يَا اَللّٰهُ [O God]; the م being a substitute for [the suppressed vocative particle] يا; (S in art. ليه, and Bd in iii. 25;) but one says also, يَا اَللّهُمَّ, (JK, and S ibid,) by poetic licence: (S ibid:) or the meaning, accord. to some, is يَا اَللّٰهُ أُمَّنَا بِخَيْرٍ [O God, bring us good]; (JK, and Bd ubi suprà;) and hence the origin of the expression. (Bd.) You say also اَللّهُمَّ إِلَّا [which may be rendered, inversely, Unless, indeed; or unless, possibly]: the former word being thus used to denote that the exception is something very rare. (Mtr in the commencement of his Expos. of the Makámát of El-Hareeree, and Har pp. 52 and 53.) And اَللّهُمَّ نَعَمْ [which may be rendered, inversely, Yes, indeed; or yea, verily]: the former word being used in this case as corroborative of the answer to an interrogation, negative and affirmative. (Har p. 563.) اَللّهُمَّ: see what next precedes.

مَأْلُوهٌ: see إِلهٌ.

افك

1 أَفَكَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. أَفْكٌ, (with fet-h, S, TA, its only form, TA, [in the CK اِفْك,]) He changed his, or its, manner of being, or state; (S, K;) and he turned him, or it, (i. e., anything, Msb,) away, or back; (S, Msb, K;) عَنِ الشَّىْءِ [from the thing]; (S;) or عَنْ وَجْهِهِ [from his, or its, mode, or manner, of being, &c.]: (Msb:) so in the Kur xlvi. 21, أَجِئْتَنَا لِتَأْفِكَنَا عَنْ آلِهَتِنَا Hast thou come to us to turn us away, or back, from our gods? (Bd:) or he turned him away, or back, by lying: (TA:) or he changed, or perverted, his judgment, or opinion: (K:) or he deceived him, or beguiled him, and so turned him away, or back: and simply he deceived him, or beguiled him: and أُفِكَ signifies he was turned from his judgment, or opinion, by deceit, or guile. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [li. 9], يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ

أُفِكَ, i. e., He will be turned away from it (namely, the truth,) who is turned away in the foreknowledge of God: (TA:) or, accord. to Mujáhid, يُؤْفَنُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِنَ [he will be weak in intellect and judgment so as to be thereby turned away from it who is weak in intellect and judgment]. (S, TA.) You say also, أُفِكَ الرَّجُلُ عَنِ الخَيْرِ The man was turned away, or back, from good, or prosperity. (Sh.) And أَفَكَهُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) He forbade him what he wished, (K, TA,) and turned him away, or back, from it. (TA.) b2: أَفَكَ, aor. ـِ (Msb, K;) and أَفِكَ, aor. ـَ (IAar, K;) inf. n. إِفْكٌ (Msb, K) and أَفْكٌ and أَفَكٌ and أُفُوكٌ; (K;) He lied; uttered a falsehood; said what was untrue; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ أفّك, (K,) inf. n. تَأْفِيكٌ: (TA:) because a lie is a saying that is turned from its proper way, or mode. (Bd in xxiv. 11.) b3: أَفَكَ النَّاسَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. أَفْكٌ, He told the people what was false; أَفَكَ and أَفَكْتُهُ being like كَذَبَ and كَذَبْتُهُ. (Az, TA.) b4: أَفَكَ فُلَانًا, (K,) inf. n. أَفْكٌ; (TA;) or the verb is ↓ آفَكَ; (so in the printed edition of Bd, xlvi. 27;) He, or it, made such a one to lie, or say what was untrue. (K.) b5: أُفِكَ He was weak [as though perverted] in his intellect and judgment or opinion. (K,* TA.) But أَفَكَهُ اللّٰهُ as meaning God rendered weak his intellect is not used. (L, TA.) b6: (tropical:) It (a place) was not rained upon, and had no vegetation, or herbage. (K, TA.) 2 اَفَّكَ see 1.4 آفَكَ see 1.8 ائْتَفَكَتِ البَلْدَةُ [written with the disjunctive alif اِيتَفَكَت], (S, K,) بِأَهْلِهَا, (S,) The land, or district, or the town, or the like, was, or became, overturned, or subverted, (S, K,) with its inhabitants: (S:) as were the towns of the people of Lot. (TA.) b2: Hence it is said of El-Basrah, قَدِ ائْتَفَكَتْ بِأَهْلِهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ, meaning (tropical:) It has been submerged with its inhabitants twice; as though subverted. (Sh.) b3: You say also, اِيتَفَكَتْ تِلْكَ الأَرْضُ (tropical:) That land has been burnt up by drought. (IAar.) إِفْكٌ [an inf. n. used as a subst.;] A lie; a falsehood; (S, TA;) as also ↓ أَفِيكَةٌ: pl. (of the latter, K) أَفَائِكُ. (S, K.) You say, ↓ يَا لَلْأَفِيكَةِ, and ↓ يَا لِلْأَفِيكَةِ; [and ↓ لَلْأَفَيِّكَةِ, using the dim. form for the purpose of enhancement; i. e. O the lie! and O the great lie!] the ل with fet-h denoting calling to aid; and with kesr denoting wonder, as though the meaning were, O man, wonder thou at this great lie. (TA.) افكة [so in the TA, without any syll. signs; app. either أَفْكَةٌ, an inf. n. of un., or ↓ آفِكَةٌ, like دَاهِيَةٌ;] A punishment sent by God, whereby the dwellings of a people are overturned: occurring in a trad. relating to the story of the people of Lot. (TA.) سَنَةٌ أَفِكَةٌ (tropical:) A year of drought or sterility: (K, TA:) pl. أَوَافِكُ [contr. to rule, as though the sing. were ↓ آفِكَةٌ]. (Z, TA.) أَفُوكٌ: see أَفَّاكٌ.

أَفِيكٌ One who is turned from his judgment, or opinion, by deceit, or guile; as also ↓ مَأْفُوكٌ. (K.) b2: Lacking strength or power or ability, and having little prudence and artifice. (Lth, K.) A2: See also أَفَّاكٌ.

أُفَيِّكَةٌ: see إِفْكٌ, in three places. b2: Also A severe, or distressing, calamity. (Ibn-Abbád.) أُفَيِّكَةٌ: see إِفْكٌ.

أَفَّاكٌ A great, or habitual, liar; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ أَفُوكُ, (Msb, K,) and ↓ أَفِيكٌ: (K:) fem. of the first [and last] with ة: but the second is both masc. and fem.: (Msb:) the pl. of the second is افك with damm [i. e. أُفْكٌ, accord. to the rule of the K, but the TA seems to indicate that it is أُفُكٌ, by likening it to the pl. of صَبُورٌ]. (K.) آفِكَةٌ: see افكة: b2: and see سَنَةٌ أَفِكةٌ.

أَفِيكٌ [Changed in his, or its, manner of being, or state: turned away, or back, from a thing: &c.]: see مَأْفُونٌ. b2: Weak [as though perverted] in his intellect (Az, S, K) and judgment or opinion; as also ة: (Az, S:) accord. to A'Obeyd, (or AA, as in one copy of the S,) a man who does not attain, or obtain, good, or prosperity. (S.) b3: Also, (K,) fem. with مَأْفُونٌ, (S, K,) (tropical:) A place, (K,) or land, (أَرْضٌ, S, Z,) not rained upon, and having no vegetation, or herbage. (S, Z, K.) المُؤْتَفِكَاتُ (S, K) and المُوْتَفِكَةٌ, (TA,) both occurring in the Kur, [the former in ix. 71 and lxix. 9, and the latter in liii. 54,] The cities overthrown, or subverted, by God, upon the people of Lot. (S, K.) b2: The former also signifies The winds that turn over [the surface of] the earth, or ground: (K:) or the winds that blow from different quarters: it is said (by the Arabs, S) that when these winds blow much, the earth (i. e. its seed-produce, TA) thrives, or yields increase. (S, K, TA.)

بَلَنْسِيَةُ:
السين مهملة مكسورة، وياء خفيفة: كورة ومدينة مشهورة بالأندلس متصلة بحوزة كورة تدمير، وهي شرقي تدمير وشرقي قرطبة، وهي برّيّة بحرية ذات أشجار وأنهار، وتعرف بمدينة التراب، وتتصل بها مدن تعد في جملتها، والغالب على شجرها القراسيا، ولا يخلو منه سهل ولا جبل، وينبت بكورها الزعفران، وبينها وبين تدمير أربعة أيام ومنها إلى طرطوشة أيضا أربعة أيام، وكان الروم قد ملكوها سنة 487، واستردها الملثمون الذين كانوا ملوكا بالغرب قبل عبد المؤمن سنة 95، وأهلها خير أهل الأندلس يسمّون عرب الأندلس، بينها وبين البحر فرسخ، وقال الأديب أبو زيد عبد الرحمن بن مقانا الأشبوني الأندلسي:
إن كان واديك نيلا لا يجاز به، فما لنا قد حرمنا النيل والنيلا؟
إن كان ذنبي خروجي من بلنسية، ... فما كفرت ولا بدّلت تبديلا
دع المقادير تجري في أعنّتها، ... ليقضي الله أمرا كان مفعولا
وقال أبو عبد الله محمد الرّصافي:
خليليّ ما للبلد قد عبقت نشرا، ... وما لرؤوس الركب قد رجحت سكرا؟
هل المسك مفتوقا بمدرجة الصّبا، ... أم القوم أجروا من بلنسية ذكرا؟
بلادي التي راشت قويدمتي بها ... فريخا، وآوتني قرارتها وكرا
أعيذكم! أنّى ننيب لبيتكم، ... وكل يد منا على كبد حرّى؟
نؤمّل لقياكم، وكيف مطارنا ... بأجنحة لا نستطيع لها نشرا؟
فلو آب ريعان الصبا ولقاؤكم، ... إذا قضت الأيام حاجتنا الكبرى
فإن لم يكن إلّا النّوى ومشيبنا، ... فمن أيّ شيء بعد نستعتب الدهرا؟
وأنشدني بعض أهل بلنسية لأبي الحسن بن حريق المرسي:
بلنسية نهاية كل حسن، ... حديث صحّ في شرق وغرب
فإن قالوا: محلّ غلاء سعر، ... ومسقط دمنتي طعن وضرب
فقل: هي جنّة حفّت رباها ... بمكروهين من جوع وحرب
وأنشد لابن حريق:
بلنسية بيني عن القلب سلوة، ... فإنك زهر، لا أحنّ لزهرك
وكيف يحبّ المرء دارا تقسّمت ... على ضاربي جوع وفتنة مشرك؟
وأنشدني لأبي العباس أحمد بن الزقاق يذكر أن البساتين محفوفة بها:
كأنّ بلنسية كاعب، ... وملبسها السّندس الأخضر
إذا جئتها سترت وجهها ... بأكمامها، فهي لا تظهر
وأنشدني لابن الزقاق:
بلنسية جنة عاليه، ... ظلال القطوف بها دانية
عيون الرحيق مع السلسبي ... ل، وعين الحياة بها جاريه
وأنشدني غيره لخلف بن فرج اللّبيري يعرف بابن السمسير:
بلنسية بلدة جنّة، ... وفيها عيوب متى تختبر
فخارجها زهر كلّه، ... وداخلها برك من قذر
وذلك لأن كنفهم ظاهرة على وجه الأرض لا يحفرون له تحت التراب، وهو عندهم عزيز لأجل البساتين، وينسب إليها جماعة وافرة من أهل العلم بكل فن، منهم: سعد الخير بن محمد بن سهل بن سعد أبو الحسن الأنصاري البلنسي، فقيه صالح ومحدث مكثر، سافر الكثير وركب البحر حتى وصل إلى الصين وانتسب لذلك صينيّا، وعاد إلى بغداد وأقام بها وسمع فيها أبا الخطاب بن البطر وطرّاد بن محمد الزينبي وغيرهما، ومات ببغداد في محرم سنة 541.

فغر

1 فَغَرَ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K) and فَغُرَ, (Az, K,) inf. n. فَغْرٌ (Msb, TA) and فُغُورٌ, (TA,) He opened his mouth; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ افغر. (Zj, Sgh, K.) b2: [Also, both verbs, فَغَرَ and ↓ افغر, He, or it, made, or caused, to open the mouth. And hence,] فَغَرَ النَّجْمُ, (T, TA,) or النَّجْمُ ↓ أَفْغَرَ, (S, O,) i. e., الُّرَيَّا, (T, S, O,) The asterism, meaning the Pleiades, became overhead: [lit., made one to open his mouth:] (T:) this is in the winter: (S, O:) for when the Pleiades are in the midst of the sky, he who looks at them opens his mouth: (T, S, O:) or the Pleiades began to rise [after sunset, so as to be overhead in the middle of the night], in the winter. (TA.) A2: فَغَرَ also signifies It (the mouth) opened; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ انفغر: (K:) and the latter is said of a blossom, or flower, in the same sense. (S, Msb, TA.) b2: And فَغَرَتِ السِّنُّ (assumed tropical:) The tooth showed its point; as though it broke forth to grow: but some say that its ف is substituted for ث, and Az inclines to think so [though ثَغَرَ differs much in meaning from فَغَرَ]. (TA.) 4 أَفْغَرَ and 7: see 1; the former in three places.

هُوَ وَاسِعُ فَغْرِ الفَمِ He is wide in the opening of the mouth. (Lth, O, K.) b2: And accord. to Lth, (O,) فَغَرٌ signifies also A rose when it opens: (O, K:) but it is thought by Az to be, in this sense, a mistake for فَغْوٌ, with و. (O.) وُلِدَ بِالْفَغْرَةِ He was born at the commencement of the rising of the Pleiades [after sunset]; (O, K;) which is in the winter. (TA.) See 1.

فُغْرَةٌ The mouth of a valley: pl. فُغَرٌ. (O, K.) طَعْنَةٌ فَغَارِ, the latter word like قَطَامِ, [A spearwound, or the like,] that passes through.
