الحِصَارِ أَيَّامًا We remained in the state of siege some days; or in the place of confinement; and حُوصِرُوا مُحَاصَرَةً شَدِيدَةً [They were besieged, or beset, vehemently]. (A.) b2: Also حَصَرَهُ, (S, A, K, &c.,) aor. ـُ (Mgh, K) and حَصِرَ, (K,) inf. n. حَصْرٌ, (A, Mgh, K,) He, (Akh, S, A,) or it, (S,) confined, kept close, imprisoned, detained, retained, restrained, withheld, or prevented, him; (A O, Aboo-'Amr Esh-Sheybánee, Akh, S, A;) as also ↓ أَحْصَرَهُ: (Aboo-' Amr Esh-Sheybánee, S:) or a distinction should be made between these two forms, as will be seen in what follows.

طَرَّق على فلان: حاول خداعه والمكر به. (معجم مسلم).
طَرَّق: برقش، رقش، (فوك) وانظر: مُطَرَّق فيما يلي: أطْرَق. طأطأ رأسه، أمال رأسه إلى صدره وفي معجم فوك: أطرق برأسه. تَطَرَّق: بالمعنى الأول في معجم لين وهو وجد طريقاً إلى وتطَرَّق إلى مجازاً أيضاً بمعنى اولع ب، وانهمك في، ففي مملوك (2، 2: 269): كان يمنعها التطرّف (ق) إلى التبهرج. وقد ترجمها كاترمير بما معناه: كان يمنعها من الانهماك في التبرج، وبدلاً من أن يقال تطرَّق إلى يقال تطّرق ل أيضاً (المقدمة1: 56 المقري 1: 658 وعليك أن تقرأ فيه يتطّرق وفقاً لطبعة بولاق).
ويقال كذلك، تطَّرق على (معجم مسلم) وهو نفس المعنى فيما أرى في عبارة ياقوت (1: 819) التي نقلت فيه.
تطَرَّق: سار، مضى، انطلق (زيشر 5: 102، فوك).

استطرق: قارن قولهم الاستطراق بين الصفوف الذي ذكره لين في معجمه مع ما جاء في كتاب الماوردي (ص 329): ويُمنعَ الناس في الجوامع والمساجد من استطراق حلق الفقراء والقُرَّاء صيانة لحرمتها.

طَرْقُون: ذكرت في القسم الأول من معجم فوك مع كلمة لاتينية معناها رقص غير أنها لم تذكر في القسم الثاني.
ويظهر من قصة عجيبة عند ابن الخطيب أن هذه الكلمة لها حقا بعض العلاقة بفكرة الرقص. ففي ترجمته لابن مردنيش يقول أن هذا الأمير الذي تولى الحكم في أسبانيا الشرقية في أواسط القرن السادس للهجرة قد فرض ضرائب متنوعة على رعيته لكي يستطيع دفع رواتب جنوده النصارى حتى إنه فرض هذه الضريبة على حفلات الأعراس، وفي القصة التالية أن رجلاً من مدينة قسطيلة يقول إنه ربح في مرسيه دوقتين (وهو نقد ذهبي قديم) في عمله بالبناء، فدعا بعض بلدياته لقضاء ليلة عنده. ويستمر قائلاً (ص186، ص187): فاشتريت لحماً وشراباً وضربنا دُفاً فلما كان عند الصباح وإذا بنقر عنيف بالباب فقلت من أنت فقال أنا الطرقون الذي بيده قبالة اللهو وهي متَّفقة بيدي وانتم ضربتم البارحة الدُفَّ فاعطنا حَقَّ العرس الذي عملتَ فقلتُ له والله ما كانت لي .. فأُخِذت وسُجنتُ (وليس في المخطوطة فراغ، غير أني أرى أن شيئاً ناقصاً فيه) فالطرقون إذاً هو من يتولى استلام الضريبة المفروضة على احتفالات الأعراس وعلى الرقص وكذلك على الموسيقى التي تضرب في العرس، ولا ادري لماذا ذكر فوك كلمة طرقون في مادة الفعل saltare اللاتيني الذي معناه رقص.
ونجد هذه الكلمة في أبيات لشاعر أندلسي هو الفقيه عمر وقد نقلها المقريزي وكان يرددها رجل يحيى حياة التسكع. فنقرأ في المقريزي (3: 23)
ولا تنسى أياماً تقّضت كريمة ... بزاوية المحروق أو دار همدان
وتأليفنا لقبض إتارةَ ... وإغرام مسنون وقسمة حُلْوان
وقد جلس الطرقون بالبعد مطرقاً ... يقول نصيبي أو أبوح بكتمان
وهكذا نرى أن هذا الشخص يتظاهر بأنه جابي الضرائب فيجمع الإتاوات بينما جلس الطرقون بعيداً مطرقاً برأسه وهو يقول اعطني نصيبي وإلا بحت بالسر. وبذلك كان على الناس البائسين أن يدفعوا مرتين الأولى لهذا المحتال ثم إلى الطرقون الذي يقول لمن دفع الضريبة إلى غيره إنه قد خدعه محتال تظاهر بأنه الطرقون.
طِراق: قارن قولهم طائرُ طراقُ الريش الذي ذكره لين نقلا من تاج العروس بقولهم: طراقُ الخَوافي الذي ذكره المبرد في الكامل ص90) طروق = طارق (رايت ص91 رقم 12).
طَريق: يجمعها العامة على طُرُوق وهو تصحيف طُرُق (معجم مسلم).
طَرِيق: بمعنى افسحوا الطريق، فحين يصل العربي إلى منزله ومعه غرباء يصيح قائلا: طريق وذلك لكي تدخل نساؤه في بيوتهن (نيبور رحلة إلى بلاد العرب ص47) طريق السلامة: مع السلامة على الطائر الميمون (بوشر)
أرباب الطريق: هم عند الجوبري المنجمون وضاربوا الرمل ثم يذكر بعد ذلك أصحاب الطريق في الطب أو أطباء، الطرق (زيشر 20: 496، 497) وبمقارنة هذا بما نقلته من معجم بوشر في مادة طُرَقي يمكننا أن نؤكد أن هذه الكلمات تعني غالباً الدجالين المشعوذين من الجراحين والمنجمين وضاربي الرمل ومن لف لفهم الذين يتعاطون مهنهم في الطرقات العامة.
طريق التبن وطريق اللبّانة: المجّرة، أن السماء، أمّ النجوم (بوشر).

(انظر تعليقه ص100 رقم 21). ويقول بوسييه: إنها سير قوي تبطن به الخيمة العربية تسند الدعامات والركائز وعليها يقع كل الحمل (130).

طارِقَة: هذه الكلمة تدل على نوع من الأسلحة وقد وجد المستشرقون وهم العلماء باللغات والآداب الشرقية صعوبة في تفسيرها، وقد فسرها شولتز أولا بحربة ومزراق، ثم بدرع وزرد وقد رأى إنها تحريف تاركو اليونانية وقد اعتمد كل من رينو ودي ساسي على هذا الأصل غير الأكيد، وقد وجد دي ساسي عدة نصوص في المقريزي لم تترك له شكاً معنى هذه الكلمة. وقد أضاف السيد لين رأياً جديداً خاطئاً على ما سبق وقيل من الآراء فقال هذه الكلمة تعني ركاماً ضخماً من الأسلحة ولو اطلع على تعليقة كاترمير البارعة (مونج ص288 - 289) لأصدر حكماً آخر. على أن هذه التعليقة ليست بكافية لأنها لا تدل على اصل كلمة طارقة ولا على معناها الأصلي.
وارى إنها ليست عربية الأصل لان اللغات العربية لم تذكر أصلها وقد دخلت فيها في وقت متأخر. وأعتقد أن من العبث أن نفتش عنها عند الكتاب السابقين على عهد الحروب الصليبية وأن العرب قد أخذوها من الصليبيين وهي ليست غير الكلمة اللاتينية targa الموجودة في اللغة الإيطالية والأسبانية والبرتغالية والبروفنسالية بصورة Tarje وبالفرنسية بصورة Targe أن هذه الكلمة مأخوذة من الكلمة اللاتينية Tergum ( انظر دوكانج) أو من الكلمة الألمانية Zarga ( جريم، مونيمن، النحو الألماني 3: 445) ويرى دميليز في أصول الكلمات في اللغات الرومانية هذا الرأي. وهي على كل حال من أصل أوربي وتعني ترساً كبير يغطي كل الجانب الأسفل من الجسم.
والكلمة العربية طريقة (طَرْغَة) في معجم (فوك) تدل على نفس هذا المعنى، وهذا ما يمكن أن نراه في عبارات عماد الدين الأصفهاني في التي نقلها كاترمير ويستنتج منها أن الصليبين كانوا يستعملون هذه التروس، وقد أساء كلترمير ترجمة جملة: (لمعت بولرقُ بيارقه، وراعت طوارقُ طوارقه) فقد ترجمها بما معناه: لمعت بوارق بيارقه، وطوارقه التي تقدمت نشرت الذعر.
وفي حياة صلاح الدين (ص124): رأيت الصليبيين يسيرون في حالة يرثى لها، ما وجدت مع واحد منهم طارقة ولا رمحاً إلا النادر، ونجد فيها أيضاً أن الأمراء الصليبين اهدوا إلى الصلاح الدين طوارق وسيوفاً ألمانية وغير ذلك (دي ساسي طرائف 1: 275) وفي الغرب كان النصارى من الأسبان هم الذين يملكون هذا النوع من التروس، (انظر عباد 2: 201) وقد استعارها منهم المسلمون.
ونجد مثلاً في الحلل (ص58 ق) عبارة من ابن اليسع يذكر فيه أحد الموحدين ما يلي: فصنعنا دارةً مربَّعة في البسط جعلنا فيها من جهاتها الأربع صفاً من الرجال بأيديهم القنا الطوال والطوارق المانعة ووراءهم أصحاب الدرق والحراب صفاً ثانياً.
وكانت في القاهرة حارة تسمى الطوارق أو حارة الصبيان الطوارق لأن فيها منازل الفتيان المسلحين بالطوارق، وهم من جملة طوائف العسكر كانوا معدّين لحمل الطوارق (المقريزي في دي ساسي 1: 1) وأخيراً فان هذه الكلمة كانت تدل في أوربا على وقاء نقال يستخدمه المحاصرون عند الهجوم وهي نوع من آلات الحرب مؤلف من عدة الواح يحتمي وراءها المهاجمون من السهام والحجارة (انظر دوطانج).
وكانت الطريقة تدل في الشرق على هذا المعنى ويظهر إنها لا تزال معروفة في القاهرة لان كاترمير يقول (ص427) إنه مدين لمارسيل في تفسيره لها وإنها لوح يحتمي وراءه الجنود من السهام والحجارة.
وكلمة تُرْس قد تغير أيضا معناها كما يدل عليها النص في طرائف فريتاج (ص131).
طارقِيات (جمع): ألواح يحتمي وراءها الجنود من السهام والحجارة (حياة صلاح الدين ص250 ابن الاثير 12:4).
مِطْرَق: بالعامية مَطْرق: دبوس، هراوة (دوماس حياة العرب ص 199) وعصاً غليظة فعند كاريت قبيل (2: 241): (عصا قصيرة رقيقة يستعملها العرب أحياناً في سوق ابلهم).
(بركهارت بلاد العرب 1: 420) وفي ألف ليلة (4: 553): وإذا بالوالي اقبل عليّ ومعه جماعة بسيوف ومطارق. (وقد ترجمها لين بما معناه (درق من الجلد) وهو معنى ما تدل عليه هذه الكلمة).
مِطْرَق: انظر الفعل مَطْرَقَ في حرف الميم.
مُطَرَّق: يقول ابن العوام (2: 564) في كلامه عن تنعيل الفرس: ولا يُنْعل الا بنعل مطرق فانه الصق للحافر واسبق ليدي الدابَّة.
وقد ترجمها بانكري بما معناه: لا تستعمل إلا حديدة مغلفة بجلد غير أني أرى ما يراه كلمنت- موليه إنه حديد ممطول وقد فسرها بوسييه بأنها طرق على السندان.
مُطَرَّق: جرح المسمار في قدم المطية، ألم الفرس المنُعَّل (الكالا). مَطرَق: مبرقش، مرقَّش (لين، فوك) ونسيج مُخطط، ذو خطوط (بوسيبه) وفي كرتاس (ص178) كان يلبس تليسا مطرقا وبرنوسا مرقعاً وفي ابن البيطار (1: 471) يقولا الادريسي في كلامه عن الذراريح: النوع الأسود المطرق بالحمرة.
وفي مخطوطاتنا المطرق بالفاء وهو خطأ.
مطرقا: اسم نبات يشبه الثوم. (انظره في مادة سفرذيون).
مِطْرَقَة خَشَب: ناقوس خشب، وطاحونة صغيرة من الخشب (بوشر) وهي مثل matraca بالأسبانية وتعني ناقوس خشب يستعمل بدل الأجراس في أسبوع الآلام.
مَطُروُق: شائع، متداول. ويقال: كلمة مطروقة أي شائعة متداولة (بوشر).
مَطّرُوق: مبتذل، غثّ، ركيك (بوشر).
بيت مَطُروق: مُرْتاد، يكثر التردد عليه (بوشر).
مُتَطَرَّق إلى: طريق يوصل إلى (الكامل ص 113).

And أَطْرَقَ, alone, He bent down his head: (MA:) or he lowered his eyes, looking towards the ground; (S, O, K;) and sometimes the doing so is natural: (TA: [and the same is indicated in the S:]) and it may mean he had a laxness in the eyelids: (A'Obeyd, TA:) or he contracted his eyelids, as though his eye struck the ground: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and he was, or became, silent, (ISk, S, O, K,) accord. to some, by reason of fright, (TA,) not speaking. (ISk, S, O, K.) It is said in a prov., أَطْرِقٌ كَرَا أَطْرِقٌ كَرَا

(S. [See also كَرَوَانٌ: and see also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 30-31.]) It is asserted that when they desire to capture the كرا, and see it from afar, they encompass it, and one of them says, أَطْرِقْ كَرَا إِنَّكَ لَا تُرَى [or لَنْ تُرَى (Meyd in explanation of the preceding prov.) i. e. Lower thine eyes, or be silent, karà: thou wilt not be seen:] until he becomes within reach of it; when he throws a garment over it, and takes it. ('Eyn, TA.) And أَطْرِقْ كَرَا يُحْلَبْ لَكَ [Lower thine eyes, or be silent, karà: milk shall be drawn for thee:] is [a prov., mentioned by Meyd,] said to a stupid person whom one incites to hope for that which is vain, or false, and who believes [what is said to him].

And اطّرقت الأَرْضُ The earth became disposed in layers, one above another, being compacted by the rain. (TA.) And اطّرق الحَوْضُ The watering-trough, or tank, had in it [a deposit of] compacted dung, or dung and mud or clay, that had fallen into it. (TA.) and اطّرق عَلَيْهِ اللَّيْلُ, as in the O and L; in the K, erroneously, ↓ أَطْرَقَ; The night came upon him portion upon portion. (TA.)

And الاِسْتِطْرَاقُ بَيْنَ الصُّفُوفِ, a phrase used by Khwáhar-Zádeh [commonly pronounced KháharZádeh], means The going [or the taking for oneself a way] between the ranks [of the people engaged in prayer]: from الطَّرِيقُ. (Mgh.) And اِسْتَطْرَقْتُ

[طَارِقُ المَنَايَا, like دَاعِى المَنَايَا, means The summoner of death, lit., of deaths; because death makes known its arrival or approach suddenly, like a person knocking at the door in the night.] b2: Hence الطَّارِقُ, mentioned in the Kur [lxxxvi. 1 and 2], The star that appears in the night: (Er-Rághib, O:) or the morning-star; (S, O, K;) because it comes [or appears] in [the end of] the night.

A4: [El-Makreezee mentions the custom of attaching طَوَارِق حَرْبِيَّة upon the gates of Cairo and upon the entrances of the houses of the أُمَرَآء; and De Sacy approves of the opinion of A. Schultens and of M. Reinaud that the meaning is Cuirasses, from the Greek θώραξ: (see De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, sec. ed., vol. i. pp. 274-5:) but I think that the meaning is more probably large maces; for such maces, each with a head like a cannon-ball, may still be seen, if they have not been removed within the last few years, upon several of the gates of Cairo; and if so, طَوَارِق in this case is app. from طَرَقَ “ he beat: ” see also عَمُودٌ.]

بابِلُ:
بكسر الباء: اسم ناحية منها الكوفة والحلّة، ينسب إليها السحر والخمر، قال الأخفش: لا ينصرف لتأنيثه، وذلك أن اسم كل شيء مؤنث إذا كان علما وكان على أكثر من ثلاثة أحرف فإنه لا ينصرف في المعرفة، وقد ذكرت فيما يأتي في ترجمة بابليون معنى بابل عند أهل الكتاب، وقال المفسرون في قوله تعالى: وما أنزل على الملكين ببابل هاروت وماروت، قيل بابل العراق، وقيل بابل دنباوند، وقال أبو الحسن: بابل الكوفة، وقال أبو معشر: الكلدانيون هم الذين كانوا ينزلون بابل في الزمن الأول، ويقال: إن أول من سكنها نوح، عليه السلام، وهو أول من عمرها، وكان قد نزلها بعقب الطوفان، فسار هو ومن خرج معه من السفينة إليها لطلب الدّفء، فأقاموا بها وتناسلوا فيها وكثروا من بعد نوح، وملّكوا عليهم ملوكا، وابتنوا بها المدائن، واتصلت مساكنهم بدجلة والفرات، إلى أن بلغوا من دجلة إلى أسفل كسكر، ومن الفرات إلى ما وراء الكوفة، وموضعهم هو الذي يقال له السواد، وكانت ملوكهم تنزل بابل، وكان الكلدانيون جنودهم، فلم تزل مملكتهم قائمة إلى أن قتل دارا آخر ملوكهم، ثم قتل منهم خلق كثير فذلوا وانقطع ملكهم، وقال يزدجرد بن مهبندار: تقول العجم: إن الضحاك الملك الذي كان له بزعمهم ثلاثة أفواه وستّ أعين، بنى مدينة بابل العظيمة، وكان ملكه ألف سنة إلا يوما واحدا
ونصفا، وهو الذي أسره أفريدون الملك وصيّره في جبل دنباوند، واليوم الذي أسره فيه يعده المجوس عيدا، وهو المهرجان، قال: فأما الملوك الأوائل أعني ملوك النبط وفرعون إبراهيم فإنهم كانوا نزلا ببابل، وكذلك بخت نصّر، الذي يزعم أهل السير أنه ممّن ملك الأرض بأسرها، انصرف بعد ما أحدث ببني إسرائيل ما أحدث إلى بابل فسكنها، قال أبو المنذر هشام بن محمد: إن مدينة بابل كانت اثني عشر فرسخا في مثل ذلك، وكان بابها مما يلي الكوفة، وكان الفرات يجري ببابل حتى صرفه بخت نصّر إلى موضعه الآن مخافة أن يهدم عليه سور المدينة، لأنه كان يجري معه، قال: ومدينة بابل بناها بيوراسب الجبار واشتق اسمها من اسم المشتري، لأن بابل باللسان البابلي الأول اسم للمشتري، ولما استتمّ بناؤها جمع إليها كل من قدر عليه من العلماء وبنى لهم اثني عشر قصرا، على عدد البروج، وسماها بأسمائهم، فلم تزل عامرة حتى كان الإسكندر، وهو الذي خرّبها. وحدث أبو بكر أحمد بن مروان المالكي الدينوري في كتاب المجالس من تصنيفه: حدثنا إسماعيل بن يونس ومحمد بن مهران، قالا: حدثنا عمرو بن ناجية حدثنا نعيم بن سالم بن قنبر مولى علي ابن أبي طالب عن أنس بن مالك، قال: لما حشر الله الخلائق إلى بابل، بعث إليهم ريحا شرقية وغربية وقبلية وبحرية، فجمعهم إلى بابل، فاجتمعوا يومئذ ينظرون لما حشروا له، إذ نادى مناد: من جعل المغرب عن يمينه والمشرق عن يساره فاقتصد البيت الحرام بوجهه فله كلام أهل السماء، فقام يعرب ابن قحطان [1] فقيل له: يا يعرب بن قحطان بن هود أنت هو، فكان أول من تكلم بالعربية، ولم يزل المنادي ينادي: من فعل كذا وكذا فله كذا وكذا، حتى افترقوا على اثنين وسبعين لسانا، وانقطع الصوت وتبلبلت الألسن، فسميت بابل، وكان اللسان يومئذ بابليّا، وهبطت ملائكة الخير والشر وملائكة الحياء والإيمان وملائكة الصحة والشقاء وملائكة الغنى وملائكة الشرف وملائكة المروءة وملائكة الجفاء وملائكة الجهل وملائكة السيف وملائكة البأس، حتى انتهوا إلى العراق، فقال بعضهم لبعض: افترقوا، فقال ملك الإيمان: أنا أسكن المدينة ومكة، فقال ملك الحياء: وأنا معك، فاجتمعت الأمة على أن الإيمان والحياء ببلد رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، وقال ملك الشقاء: أنا أسكن البادية، فقال ملك الصحة: وأنا معك، فاجتمعت الأمة على أن الشقاء والصحة في الأعراب، وقال ملك الجفاء: أنا أسكن المغرب، فقال ملك الجهل: وأنا معك، فاجتمعت الأمة على أن الجفاء والجهل في البربر، وقال ملك السيف: أنا أسكن الشام، فقال ملك البأس: وأنا معك، وقال ملك الغنى: أنا أقيم ههنا، فقال ملك المروءة: وأنا معك، وقال ملك الشرف: وأنا معكما، فاجتمع ملك الغنى والمروءة والشرف بالعراق. قلت: هذا خبر نقلته على ما وجدته، والله المستعان عليه.
وقد روي أن عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، سأل دهقان الفلّوجة عن عجائب بلادهم، فقال:
كانت بابل سبع مدن، في كل مدينة أعجوبة ليست في الأخرى، فكان في المدينة التي نزلها الملك بيت فيه صورة الأرض كلها برساتيقها وقراها وأنهارها، فمتى التوى أحد بحمل الخراج من جميع البلدان، خرق أنهارهم فغرّقهم وأتلف زروعهم وجميع ما في بلدهم حتى يرجعوا عما هم به، فيسد بإصبعه تلك الأنهار [1] هكذا في الأصل.
فيستدّ في بلدهم. وفي المدينة الثانية حوض عظيم، فإذا جمعهم الملك لحضور مائدته حمل كل رجل ممن يحضره من منزله شرابا يختاره، ثم صبه في ذلك الحوض، فإذا جلسوا للشراب شرب كل واحد شرابه الذي حمله من منزله. وفي المدينة الثالثة طبل معلق على بابها، فإذا غاب من أهلها إنسان وخفي أمره على أهله وأحبوا أن يعلموا أحي صاحبهم أم ميت، ضربوا ذلك الطبل، فإن سمعوا له صوتا فإن الرجل حيّ، وإن لم يسمعوا له صوتا فإن الرجل قد مات.
وفي المدينة الرابعة مرآة من حديد، فإذا غاب الرجل عن أهله وأحبوا أن يعرفوا خبره على صحته، أتوا تلك المرآة فنظروا فيها فرأوه على الحال التي هو فيها. وفي المدينة الخامسة أوزّة من نحاس على عمود من نحاس منصوب على باب المدينة، فإذا دخلها جاسوس صوّتت الأوزّة بصوت سمعه جميع أهل المدينة، فيعلمون أنه قد دخلها جاسوس. وفي المدينة السادسة قاضيان جالسان على الماء، فإذا تقدّم إليهما الخصمان وجلسا بين أيديهما غاص المبطل منهما في الماء. وفي المدينة السابعة شجرة من نحاس ضخمة كثيرة الغصون لا تظلّ ساقها، فإن جلس تحتها واحد أظلّته إلى ألف نفس، فإن زادوا على الألف، ولو بواحد، صاروا كلّهم في الشمس. قلت وهذه الحكاية كما ترى خارقة للعادات، بعيدة من المعهودات، ولو لم أجدها في كتب العلماء لما ذكرتها. وجميع أخبار الأمم القديمة مثله، والله أعلم.
