علم الخط
هو: معرفة كيفية تصوير اللفظ بحروف هجائه إلى أسماء الحروف إذا قصد بها المسمى هو في بإحداكم رحيم معين فإنما يكتب هذه الصورة جعفر لأنه سماها خطا ولفظا ولذلك قال الخليل لما سألهم: كيف تنطقون بالجيم جعفر؟ فقالوا: جيم إنما نطقتم بالاسم ولم تنطقوا بالمسؤول عنه والجواب: جه لأنه المسمى فإن سمي به مسمى آخر كتب كغيرها نحو ياسين وحاميم يس وحم هذا ما ذكروه في تعريفه والغرض والغاية ظاهران لكنهم أطنبوا في بيان أحوال الخط وأنواعه ونحن نذكر خلاصة ما ذكروا في فصول.
فصل في فضل الخط
اعلم أن الله - سبحانه وتعالى - أضاف تعليم الخط إلى نفسه وامتن به على عباده في قوله: علم بالقلم وناهيك بذلك شرفاً.
وقال عبد الله بن عباس: الخط لسان اليد قيل: ما من أمر إلا والكتابة موكل به مدبر له ومعبر عنه وبه ظهرت خاصة النوع الإنساني من القوة إلى الفعل وامتاز به عن سائر الحيوانات.
وقيل: الخط أفضل من اللفظ لأن اللفظ يفهم الحاضر فقط والخط يفهم الحاضر والغائب وفضائله كثيرة معروفة.
فصل في وجه الحاجة إليه
اعلم أن فائدة التخاطب لما لم تتبين إلا بالألفاظ وأحوالها وكان ضبط أحوالها مما اعتنى العلماء كان ضبط أحوال ما يدل على الألفاظ أيضا ما يعتني بشأنه وهو الخطوط والنقوش الدالة على الألفاظ فبحثوا عن أحوال الكتابة الثابتة نقوشها على وجه كل زمان وحركاتها وسكناتها ونقطها وشكلها وضوابطها من شداتها ومداتها وعن تركيبها وتسطيرها لينتقل منها الناظرون إلى الألفاظ والحروف ومنها إلى المعاني الحاصلة في الأذهان.
فصل في كيفية وضعه وأنواعه
قيل: أول من وضع الخط آدم عليه السلام كتبه في طين وطبخه ليبقى بعد الطوفان وقيل: إدريس وعن ابن عباس أن أول من وضع الخط العربي ثلاثة رجال من بولان قبيلة من طي نزلوا مدينة الأنبار فأولهم: مراز وضع الصور وثانيهم: أسلم وصل وفصل وثالثهم: عامر وضع الأعجام ثم انتشر.
وقيل: أول من اخترعه ستة أشخاص من طلسم أسماؤهم: أبجد هوز حطي كلمن سعفص قرشت فوضعوا الكتابة والخط وما شذ من أسمائهم من الحروف وألحقوها ويروى: أنها أسماء ملوك مدين.
وفي السيرة لابن هاشم: أن أول من كتب الخط العربي حمير بن سبأ.
قال السهيلي في التعريف والأعلام والأصح ما رويناه من طريق ابن عبد البر يرفعه إلى النبي - صلى الله عليه وسلم - قال: "أول من كتب بالعربية إسماعيل عليه السلام".
قال أبو الخير: واعلم أن جميع كتابات الأمم اثنتا عشرة كتابة: بالعربية والحميرية واليونانية والفارسية والسريانية والعبرانية والرومية والقبطية والبرية والأندلسية والهندية والصينية.
فخمس منها اضمحلت وذهب من يعرفها وهي: الحميرية واليونانية والقبطية والأندلسية والبريرية.
وثلاثة بقي استعمالها في بلادها وعدم من يعرفها في بلاد الإسلام وهي: الرومية والهندية والصينية.
وبقيت أربع هي المستعملات في بلاد الإسلام هي: العربية والفارسية والسريانية والعبرانية.
أقول: في كلامه بحث من وجوه: أما أولاً: فلأن الحصر في العدد المذكور غير صحيح إذ الأقلام المتداولة بين الأمم الآن أكثر من ذلك سوى المنقرضة فإن من نظر في كتب القدماء المدونة باللغة اليونانية والقبطية وكتب أصحاب الحرف الذين بينوا فيها أنواع الأقلام والخطوط علم صحة ما قلنا وهذا الحصر يبنى عن قلة الإطلاع.
وأما ثانيا: فلأن قوله خمس منها اضمحلت ليس بصحيح أيضا لأن اليونانية مستعملة في خواص الملة النصرانية أعني: أهل أقاديميا المشهورة الواقعة في بلاد إسبانيا وفرنسا ونمسه وهي مماليك كثيرة واليونانية أصل علومهم وكتبهم.
وأما ثالثا: فلأن قوله وعدم من يعرفها في بلاد الإسلام وهي الرومية كلام سقيم أيضا إذ من يعرف الرومية في بلاد الإسلام أكثر من أن يحصى وينبغي أن يعلم أن الرومية المستعملة في زماننا منحرفة من اليونانية بتحريف قليل وأما القلم المستعمل بين كفرة الروم فغير القلم اليوناني.
وأما رابعا: فلأن جعله السريانية والعبرانية من المستعملات في بلاد الإسلام ليس كما ينبغي لأن السرياني خط قديم بل هو أقدم الخطوط منسوب إلى سوريا وهي البلاد الشامية وأهلها منقرضون فلم يبق منهم أثر ثبت في التواريخ والعمرانية المستعملة فيما بين اليهود وهي مأخذ اللغة العربية وخطها. والعبراني يشبه العربي في اللفظ والخط مشابهة قليلة.
فصل
واعلم: أن جميع الأقلام مرتب على ترتيب أبجد إلا القلم العربي وجميعها منفصل إلا العربي والسرياني والمغولي واليوناني والرومية والقبطية من اليسار إلى اليمين والعبرانية والسريانية والعربية من اليمين إلى اليسار وكذا التركية والفارسية.
الخط السرياني:
ثلاثة أنواع: المفتوح المحقق ويسمى: أسطريحالا وهو أجلها والشكل المدور ويقال له: الخط الثقيل ويسمى أسكولينا وهو أحسنها والخط الشرطاوي يكتبون به الترسل والسرياني أصل النبطي.
الخط العبراني:
أول من كتب به عامر بن شالح وهو مشتق من السرياني وإنما لقب بذلك حيث عبر إبراهيم الفرات يريد الشام وزعمت اليهود والنصارى لا خلاف بينهم أن الكتابة العبرانية في لوحين من حجارة و: أن الله - سبحانه وتعالى - دفع ذلك إليه.
الخط الرومي:
وهو أربعة وعشرون حرفا كما ذكرنا في المقدمة ولهم قلم يعرف ب المسميا ولا نظير له عندنا فإن الحرف الواحد منه يدل على معان وقد ذكره جالينوس في ثابت كتبه.
الخط الصيني:
خط لا يمكن تعلمه في زمان قليل لأنه يتعب كاتبه الماهر فيه ولا يمكن للخفيف اليد أن يكتب به في اليوم أكثر من ورقتين أو ثلاثة وبه يكتبون كتب ديانتهم وعلومهم ولهم كتابة يقال لها كتابة المجموع وهو أن كل كلمة تكتب بثلاثة أحرف أو أكثر في صورة واحدة ولكل كلام طويل شكل من الحروف يأتي علم المعاني الكثيرة فإذا أرادوا أن يكتبوا ما يكتب في مائة ورقة كتبوه في صفحة واحدة بهذا القلم.
الخط المانوي:
مستخرج من الفارسي والسرياني استخرجه ماني كما أن مذهبه مركب من المجوسية والنصرانية وحروفه زائدة على حروف العربي وهذا القلم يكتب به قدماء أهل ما رواء النهر كتب شرائعهم وللمرقنونية قلم يختصون به.
الخط الهندي والسندي:
هو أقلام عدة يقال أن لهم نحو مائتي قلم بعضهم يكتب بالأرقام التسعة على معنى أبجد وينقطون تحته نقطتين أو ثلاثا.
الخط الزنجي والحبشي:
على ندرة لهم قلم حروفه متصلة كحروف الحميري يبتدئ من الشمال إلى اليمين يفرقون بين كل اسم منها بثلاث نقط.
الخط العربي:
في غاية تعويج إلى يمنة اليد وقال ابن إسحاق أول خطوط العربية: الخط المكي وبعده المدني ثم البصري ثم الكوفي وأما المكي والمدني ففي شكله انضجاع يسير قال الكندي: لا أعلم كتابة يحتمل منها تحليل حروفها وتدقيقها ما تحتمل الكتابة العربية ويمكن فيها سرعة ما لا يمكن في غيرها من الكتابات.
فصل في أهل الخط العربي:
قال ابن اسحق: أول من كتب المصاحف في الصدر الأول ويوصف بحسن الخط خالد بن أبي الهياج وكان سعد نصبه لكتب المصاحف والشعر والأخبار للوليد بن عبد الملك وكان الخط العربي حينئذ هو المعروف الآن بالكوفي ومنه استنبطت الأقلام كما في شرح العقيلة.
ومن كتاب المصاحف: خشنام البصري والمهدي الكوفي وكانا في أيام الرشيد
ومنهم أبو حدى وكان يكتب المصاحف في أيام المعتصم من كبار الكوفيين وحذاقهم.
وأول من كتب في أيام بني أمية: قطبة وقد استخرج الأقلام الأربعة واشتق بعضها من بعض وكان أكتب الناس.
ثم كان بعده الضحاك بن عجلان الكاتب في أول خلافة بني العباس فزاد على قطبة.
ثم كان إسحاق بن حماد في خلافة المنصور والمهدي وله عدة تلامذة كتبوا الخطوط الأصلية الموزونة وهي اثنا عشر قلما: قلم الجليل قلم السجلات قلم الديباج قلم أسطورمار الكبير قلم الثلاثين قلم الزنبور قلم المفتح قلم الحرم قلم المدامرات قلم العهود قلم القصص قلم الحرفاج فحين ظهر الهاشميون حدث خط يسمى العراقي وهو المحقق ولم يزل يزيد حتى انتهى الأمر إلى المأمون فأخذ كتابه بتجويد خطوطهم وظهر رجل يعرف بالأحوال المحرر فتكلم على رسومه وقوانينه وجعله أنواعاً.
ثم ظهر قلم المرضع وقلم النساخ وقلم الرياسي اختراع ذي الرياستين: الفضل بن سهل وقلم الرقاع وقلم غبار الحلية.
ثم كان إسحاق بن إبراهيم التميمي المكنى بأبي الحسن معلم المقتدر وأولاده أكتب أهل زمانه وله رسالة في الخط اسماها تحفة الوامق.
ومن الوزراء الكتاب: أبو علي محمد بن علي بن مقلة المتوفى سنة ثمان وعشرين وثلاثمائة وهو أول من كتب الخط البديع ثم ظهر صاحب الخط البديع علي بن هلال المعروف بابن البواب المتوفى سنة ثلاث عشرة وأربعمائة ولم يوجد في المتقدمين من كتب مثله ولا قاربه وإن كان ابن مقلة أول من نقل هذه الطريقة من خط الكوفيين وأبرزها في هذه الصورة وله بذلك فضيلة السبق وخطه أيضا في نهاية الحسن لكن ابن البواب هذب طريقته ونقحها وكساها حلاوة وبهجة وكان شيخه في الكتابة محمد بن أسد الكاتب.
ثم ظهر أبو الدر ياقوت بن عبد الله الرومي الحموي المتوفى سنة ست وعشرين وستمائة.
ثم ظهر أبو المجد ياقوت بن عبد الله الرومي المستعصمي المتوفى سنة ثمان وتسعين وستمائة وهو الذي سار ذكره في الآفاق واعترفوا بالعجز عن مداناة رتبته.
ثم اشتهرت الأقلام الستة بين المتأخرين وهي: الثلث والنسخ والتعليق والريحان والمحقق والرقاع.
ومن الماهرين في هذه الأنواع: ابن مقلة وابن البواب وياقوت وعبد الله أرغون وعبد الله الصيرفي ويحيى الصوفي والشيخ أحمد السهروردي ومبارك شاه السيوفي ومبارك شاه القطب وأسد الله الكرماني.
ومن المشهورين في البلاد الرومية: حمد الله بن الشيخ الأماسي وابنه دده جلبي والجلال والجمال وأحمد القرة الحصاري وتلميذه حسن وعبد الله القريمي وغيرهم من النساخين
ثم ظهر قلم التعليق والديواني والدشتي وكان ممن اشتهر بالتعليق سلطان علي المشهدي ومير علي ومير عماد وفي الديواني تاج وغيرهم مدون في غير هذا المحل مفصلا ولسنا نخوض بذكرهم لأن غرضنا بيان علم الخط.
وأما أبو الخير فأورد في الشعبة الأولى من مفتاح السعادة علوم متعلقة بكيفية الصناعة الخطية فنذكرها إجمالا في فصل
فمما ذكره:
أولا: علم أدوات الخط من القلم وطريق بريها وأحوال الشق والقط ومن الدواة والمداد والكاغد. فأقول هذه الأمور من أحوال علم الخط فلا وجه لإفراده ولو كان مثل ذلك علما لكان الأمر عسيراً.
وذكر ابن البواب نظم فيه قصيدة رائية بليغة استقصى فيها أدوات الكتابة ولياقوت رسالة فيه أيضا ومنها علم قوانين الكتابة: أي معرفة كيفية نقص صور الحروف البسائط وكيف يوضع القلم ومن أي جانب يبتدئ في الكتابة وكيف يسهل تصوير تلك الحروف.
ومن المصنفات فيه: الباب الواحد من كتاب صبح الأعشى وما ذلك إلا علم الخط.
ومنها علم تحسين الحروف وتقدم في باب التاء وهو أيضا من قبيل تكثير السواد قال: ومبنى هذا الفن الاستحسانات الناشئة من مقتضى الطباع السليمة بحسب الألف والعادة والمزاج بل بحسب كل شخص وغير ذلك مما يؤثر في استحسان الصور واستقباحها ولهذا يتنوع هذا العلم بحسب قوم وقوم ولهذا لا يكاد يوجد خطان متماثلان من كل الوجوه.
أقول ما ذكره في الاستحسان مسلم لكن تنوعه ليس بمتفرع عليه وعدم وجدان الخطين المتماثلين لا يترتب على الاستحسان بل هو أمر عادي قريب إلى الجبلي كسائر أخلاق الكاتب وشمائله وفيه سر إلهي لا يطلع عليه إلا الأفراد.
ومنها علم كيفية تولد الخطوط عن أصولها بالاختصار والزيادة وغير ذلك من أنواع التغيرات بحسب قوم وقوم وبحسب أغراض معلومة في فنه وحداق الخطاطين صنفوا فيها رسائل كثيرة سيما كتاب صبح الأعشى فإن فيه كفاية في هذا الباب لكن هو أيضا من هذا القبيل.
ومنها علم ترتيب حروف التهجي بهذا الترتيب المعهود فيما بيننا واشتراك بعضها ببعض في صورة الخط وإزالة التباسها بالنقط واختلاف تلك النقط وتقدم ذكره في باء التاء
ولابن جني والجزي1 رسالة في هذا الباب أما ترتيب الحروف فهو من أحوال علم الحروف وإعجامها من أحوال علم الخط.
ذكر النقط والإعجام في الإسلام
اعلم أن الصدر الأول أخذ القرآن والحديث من أفواه الرجال بالتلقين ثم لما كثر أهل الإسلام اضطروا إلى وضع النقط والإعجام فقيل: أول من وضع النقط مراد والإعجام عامر وقيل: الحجاج وقيل: أبو الأسود الدؤلي بتلقين علي كرم الله وجهه إلا أن الظاهر أنهما موضوعان مع الحروف إذ يبعدان الحروف مع تشابه صورها كانت عرية عن النقط إلى حين نقط المصحف وقد روي أن الصحابة جردوا المصحف من كل شيء حتى النقط ولو لم توجد في زمانهم لما يصح التجريد منها.
وذكر ابن خلكان في ترجمة الحجاج أنه حكم أبو أحمد العسكري في كتاب التصحيف أن الناس مكثوا يقرؤون في مصحف عثمان - رضي الله عنه - نيفا وأربعين سنة إلى أيام عبد الملك بن مروان ثم كثر التصحيف وانتشر بالعراق ففزع الحجاج إلى كتابه وسألهم أن يضعوا لهذه الحروف المشتبهة علامات. فيقال: أن نصر بن عاصم وقيل: يحيى بن يعمر قام بذلك فوضع النقط وكان معه ذلك أيضا يقع التصحيف فأحدثوا الإعجام انتهى.
واعلم أن النقط والإعجام في زماننا واجبات في المصحف وأما في غير المصحف فعند خوف اللبس واجبان البتة لأنهما ما وضعا إلا لإزالته وأما مع أمن اللبس فتركه أولى سيما إذا كان المكتوب إليه أهلا.
وقد حكي أنه عرض على عبد الله بن طاهر خط بعض الكتاب فقال: ما أحسنه لولا أكثر شونيزة.
ويقال: كثرة النقط في الكتاب سوء الظن بالمكتوب إليه.
وقد يقع بالنقط ضرر كما حكي أن جعفر المتوكل كتب إلى بعض عماله: أن أخص من قبلك من الذميين وعرفنا بمبلغ عددهم فوقع على الحاء نقطة فجمع العامل من كان في عمله منهم وخصاهم فماتوا غير رجلين إلا في حروف لا يحتمل غيرها كصورة الياء والنون والقاف والفاء المفردات وفيها أيضا مخير.
ثم أورد في الشعبة الثانية علوما متعلقة بإملاء الحروف المفردة وهي أيضا كالأولى.
فمنها: علم تركيب أشكال بسائط الحروف من حيث حسنها فكما أن للحروف حسنا حال بساطتها فكذلك لها حسن مخصوص حال تركيبها من تناسب الشكل ومباديها أمور استحسانية ترجع إلى رعاية النسبة الطبيعية في الأشكال وله استمداد من الهندسيات
وذلك الحسن نوعان: حسن التشكيل في الحروف يكون بخمسة:
أولها: التوفية: وهي أن يوفى كل حرف قسمته من الأقدار في الطول والقصر والرقة والغلظة.
والثاني: الإتمام: وهو أن يعطى كل حرف قسمته من الأقدار في الطول والقصر والغلظة.
والثالث: الانكباب والاستلقاء.
والرابع: الإشباع.
والخامس: الإرسال: وهو أن يرسل يده بسرعة.
وحسن الوضع في الكلمات وهي ستة:
الترصيف: وهو وصل حرف إلى حرف.
والتأليف: وهو جمع حرف غير متصل.
والتسطير: وهو إضافة كلمة إلى كلمة.
والتفصيل: وهو مواقع المدات المستحسنة ومراعات فواصل الكلام وحسن التدبير في قطع كلمة واحدة بوقوعها إلى آخر السطر وفصل الكلمة التامة ووصلها بأن يكتب بعضها في آخر السطر وبعضها في أوله
ومنها علم إملاء الخط العربي: أي الأحوال العارضة لنقوش الخطوط العربية لا من حيث حسنها بل من حيث دلالتها على الألفاظ وهو أيضا من قبيل تكثير السواد.
ومنها علم خط المصحف: على ما اصطلح عليه الصحابة عند جمع القرآن الكريم على ما اختاره زيد بن ثابت ويسمى الاصطلاح السلفي أيضا
وهذا العلم وإن كان من فروع علم الخط من حيث كونه باحثا عن نوع من الخط لكن بحث عنه صاحب مدينة العلوم في علوم تتعلق بالقرآن الكريم وإنما تعرضنا له هنا تتميما للأقسام.
وفيه العقيلة الرائية للشاطبي.
ومنها علم خط العروض: وهو ما اصطلح عليه أهل العروض في تقطيع الشعر واعتمادهم في ذلك على ما يقع في السمع دون المعنى المعبثة به في صنعة العروض إنما هو اللفظ لأنهم يريدون به عدد الحروف التي يقوم بها الوزن متحركا وساكنا فيكتبون التنوين نونا ساكنة ولا يراعون حذفها في الوقف ويكتبون الحرف المدغم بحرفين ويحذفون اللام مما يدغم فيه في الحرف الذي بعده كالرحمان والذاهب والضارب ويعتمدون في الحروف على أجزاء التفاعيل ويقطعون حروف الكلم بحسب قطعها كما في قول الشاعر:
ستبدي لك الأيام ما كنت جاهلا ... ويأتيك بالأخبار من لم تزود فيكتبون على هذه الصورة:
ستبدي لكلايا مما كن تجاهلا ... ويأتي كبلا خبار منلم تزودي
قال في الكشاف: وقد اتفقت في خط المصحف أشياء خارجة عن القياس ثم ما دعا ذلك بضير ولا نقصان لاستقامة اللفظ وبقاء الخط وكان اتباع خط المصحف سنة لا تخالف.
وقال ابن درستوري في كتاب الكتاب: خطان لا يقاسان خط المصحف لأنه سنة وخط العروض لأنه يثبت فيه ما أثبته اللفظ ويسقط عنه ما أسقطه هذا خلاصة ما ذكروه في علم الخط1 ومتفرعاته.
وأما الكتب المصنفة فيه فقد سبق ذكر بعض الرسائل وما عداها نادر جدا سوى أوراق ومختصرات كأرجوزة عون الدين.

وَإِنْ نَغْبُرْ فَنَحْنُ عَلَى نُذُورِ i. e. (tropical:) So if we die, there are others like to us; and if we remain alive, we are waiting for that which must necessarily come to pass, as though we were bound by vows to meet it.

A2: عبّر الرُّؤْيَا, (S, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. as above; (S, O;) and ↓ عَبَرَهَا, (S, A, O, Msb, K,) [which is less common, but more chaste,] aor. ـُ (S, O,) inf. n. عِبَارَةٌ (S, A, O, Msb, K) and عَبْرٌ; (A, Msb, K;) He interpreted, or explained, the dream, (S, A, O, Msb, K,) and told its final sequel or result: (A, O, K:) or the former verb has an intensive signification: (Msb:) and تَعْبِيرٌ has a more particular [or more restricted] meaning than تَأْوِيلٌ: it is said to be from عَبَرَ الكِتَابَ [q. v.]; or, as some say, it is from عِبْرٌ signifying the “ side ” of a river, because the interpreter of the dream considers the two sides thereof, and meditates upon every particular of it from its beginning to its end. (TA.) In the phrase of the Kur [xii. 43], إِنْ كُنْتُمْ لِلرُّؤْيَا

↓ تَعْبُرُونَ, the ل is termed لَامُ التَّعْقِيبِ [the ل of succedaneousness], because it is succedaneous to the connection termed إِضَافَة [i. e. the phrase is succedaneous to إِنْ كُنْتُمْ عَابِرِى الرُّؤْيَا If ye be interpreters of the dream]: (O, TA:) or it is inserted as an explicative: (Zj, TA:) the phrase is similar to إِنْ كُنْتَ لِلْمَالِ جَامِعًا.

And عَبَّرْتُ عَنْ فُلَانٍ I spoke for such a one. (S, O, Msb.) [Hence, يُعَبِّرُ عَنْ كَذَا, said of a word or phrase, It expresses the meaning of, signifies, or denotes, such a thing. And يُعَبَّرُ بِهِ عَنْ كَذَا The meaning of such a thing is expressed thereby; or such a thing is signified, or denoted, thereby.] b3: عبّر الدَّنَانِيرَ, (A,) or الذَّهَبَ, (K,) inf. n. as above, (A, K,) He weighed the deenárs, (A,) or the gold, (K,) deenár by deenár: (A, K:) or عبّرهُ signifies he weighed it (a thing), or measured it, without extraordinary care: (K, * TA:) and تَعْبِيرُ الدَّرَاهِمِ, the weighing of the dirhems collectively, after making divisions of them. (S, O, TA.) A3: عبّر بِهِ, (K, TA,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) signifies أَرَاهُ عُبْرَ عَيْنِهِ (K, TA, in the CK عَيْنَيْهِ,) i. e. He showed him what would make his eye to weep: or what would make his eye hot. (TA.) Dhu-r-Rummeh says, عَلَى مَلَقِيَّاتٍ يُعَبِّرْنَ بالغُفْرِ [Upon swiftly-running mares that show the mountain kids, in the swiftness of their pace, what makes their eyes to weep from envy]. (TA.) And you say also, عبّر عَيْنَيْهِ, meaning He made his eyes to weep. (TA.) b2: Also He destroyed him: (K, TA:) as though he showed him what would make his eye to weep, or make it hot. (TA.) b3: And He caused him to fall into difficulty, or distress. (A.) And It (an affair, or event,) was, or became, difficult, or distressing, to him. (O, K.) 8 اعتبر He became admonished, or reminded; he took warning, or example: in this sense the verb is used in the Kur lix. 2: and you say, اِعْتَبَرَ بِمَا مَضَى He became admonished or reminded, or he took warning or example, by what passed: (Msb:) and السَّعِيدُ مِنَ اعْتَبَرَ بِغَيْرِهِ وَالشَّقِىُّ مَنِ اعْتَبَرَ بِهِ غَيْرُهُ [The fortunate is he who takes warning by others, and the unfortunate is he by whom others take warning]. (Kull p. 60.) And عَبَرٌ [as inf. n. of ↓ عَبِرَ, aor. ـَ signifies the same as اِعْتِبَارٌ [as inf. n. of اِعْتَبَرَ in the sense expl. above]: (Fr, O, L, K, TA:) whence the saying of the Arabs, اَللّٰهُمَّ اجْعَلْنَا مِمَّنْ يَعْبَرُ الدُّنْيَا وَلَا يَعْبُرُهَا, (Fr, O, L, TA,) with fet-h to the ب of يعبر in the first case, and with damm to it in the second case, (TA,) meaning O God, make us to be of those who take warning, or example, by the present world, and do not [pass through it or] die quickly, or soon, until they content Thee by obedience: (Fr, O, L, TA:) in the copies of the K, مِمَّنْ يَعْبُرُ الدُّنْيَا وَلَا يَعْمُرُهَا, the former verb with ب [and damm], and the latter with م [and damm]: and in the A is given, as a trad., اُعْبُرُوا الدُّنْيَا وَلَا تَعْمُرُوهَا: but the reading given by Sgh and in the L is pronounced by MF to be the right. (TA.) See also عِبْرَةٌ. [And see 10, last sentence.] b2: Also He took, or regarded, what he witnessed, or saw, or beheld, as an indication, or evidence, of what was concealed from him: (O:) he compared what was unapparent with what was apparent [and so judged of the former from analogy]: or he considered the essential properties of things, and their modes of indication, in order that, by the consideration thereof, another thing, of their kind, might become known. (Kull p. 60.) See, again, عِبْرَةٌ. Ibn-Seereen used to say, أَعْتَبِرُ الحَدِيثَ [I judge by comparison with what has been transmitted by tradition from the Prophet]; meaning I interpret a dream according to what has been transmitted by tradition, like as I do according to the Kur-án; as when a crow is interpreted as meaning an unrighteous man, and a rib as meaning a woman, in imitation of forms of speech used by the Prophet.

[اعرب is also used by grammarians as meaning He declined a word; and أُعْرِبَ as meaning It was declined, or declinable; in these senses opposed to بَنَى and بُنِىَ, inf. n. بِنَآءٌ: and the former also as meaning He analyzed grammatically, or parsed, a sentence: and the inf. n. of the verb (act. and pass.) in these senses is إِعْرَابٌ.] b3: See also 2, first sentence: b4: and again in the first third part of the paragraph. b5: إِعْرَابٌ also signifies The making [a person] to revert from, or relinquish, foul speech; (K, TA;) and so ↓ تَعْرِيبٌ. (TA.) b6: And The speaking foul, or obscene, language; as also ↓ تَعْرِيبٌ, and ↓ اِسْتِعْرَابٌ: (O, K:) thus it bears two contr. significations. (K, TA.) One says of a man, اعرب [&c.], (S, O,) or اعرب فِى كَلَامِهِ, (Msb,) He spoke foul, or obscene, language. (S, O, Msb.) [Golius and Freytag have assigned this meaning to ↓ تعرّب also: the latter of them as from the S and K; in neither of which do I find it.] b7: And The act of copulating: or the speaking of that act in an oblique, or indirect, manner. (K.) A2: and اعرب, (S, O,) inf. n. إِعْرَابٌ, (K,) He had a child born to him of Arabian complexion, or colour. (S, O, K.) b2: And He possessed, or acquired, or sought to acquire, horses, or camels, of pure Arabian race. (TA. [See also 2, in the middle of the latter half; and see مُعْرِبٌ.]) b3: And إِعْرَابٌ signifies One's knowing a horse of pure Arabian race from one of mean race by his neighing. (K.) And A horse's being known by his neighing to be of pure Arabian race, free from any admixture of other than Arabian blood: (K, TA:) [or his making himself to be known as such by his neighing; for] اعرب means he (a horse) neighed, and was consequently known to be of Arabian race. (A.) b4: And The making a horse to run. (K.) Accord. to Fr, one says, اعرب عَلَى فَرَسِهِ, meaning He made his horse to run: but he adds that some say اغرب. (O.) A3: And إِعْرَابٌ signifies The taking as one's wife a woman such as is termed عَرُوبٌ [q. v.]. (K.) A4: اعرب سَقْىُ القَوْمِ meansThe people's watering [of their camels], having been at one time on alternate days, and another time on the fourth day after that of the next preceding watering, then became, and continued to be, of one uniform way. (S, O.) A5: See also 2, last four sentences.5 تعرّب He assimilated himself to the Arabs. (S.) He (a man not of genuine Arabian descent) introduced himself among the Arabs, and spoke their language, and imitated their manner or appearance; [he became a naturalized, or an insitious, Arab; (see العَرَبُ;)] as also ↓ استعرب. (Az, TA.) b2: He became an Arab of the desert; (S, Mgh;) he returned to the desert, (Az, Mgh, TA,) after he had been dwelling in a region of cities or towns or villages and of cultivated land, and joined himself to the Arabs of the desert. (Az, TA.) Hence, تعرّب بَعْدَ هِجْرَتِهِ He became an Arab of the desert [after his flight, or emigration, for the sake of El-Islám], (S, Mgh,) returning to the desert. (Mgh.) b3: He dwelt, or abode, in the desert. (O, K.) b4: See also 4, first sentence. b5: تَعَرَّبَتْ لِزَوْجِهَا She acted in an amorous manner, or with amorous dalliance, and mani-fested love, to her husband. (A, TA.) b6: Respecting a meaning assigned to تعرّب by Golius and Freytag, see 4, latter half.10 استعرب: see 5: b2: see also 4, first sentence: b3: and the same again in the latter half of the paragraph.

A2: استعرب جَرَبًا, said of a camel, He was affected with mange, or scab, which began in his armpits and groins or similar parts, and his lips, and appeared upon the general extent of his skin. (O.) b2: And استعربت, said of a cow, She desired the bull. (O, K.) Q. Q. 1 عَرْبَنَ: see 2, near the end.

عَرْبٌ is syn. with إِعْرَابٌ in the sense of إِفْصَاحٌ [but app. as a subst. (not an inf. n.) meaning Clear, plain, or distinct, speech]. (TA.) b2: and syn. with عِرَابَةٌ, q. v. (TA.) b3: And syn. with عَرَبٌ as [inf. n. of عَرِبَ, and] meaning نَشَاطٌ [i. e. Briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]. (O, K.) العُرْبُ: see العَرَبُ, first sentence.

عِرْبٌ Such as is dried up, of the [species of barley-grass called] بُهْمَى: (S, O, K:) or of any herb, or leguminous plant: n. un. with ة: or عِرْبُ البُهْمَى signifies the prickles of the بُهْمَى. (TA.) العَرَبُ, (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K, &c.,) as also ↓ العُرْبُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) A certain people, or nation; [the Arabs, or Arabians;] (S, O;) the contr. of العَجَمُ (A, Msb, K, TA) and العُجْمُ; (TA;) the inhabitants of the cities, or large towns, (S, A, O, K,) or of the Arabian cities and towns or villages: (Mgh:) [but now, on the contrary, generally applied to those who dwell in the desert:] or those who have alighted and made their abode in the cultivated regions, and have taken as their homes the Arabian cities and towns or villages, and others also that are related to them: (Az, Msb:) or [accord. to general usage] an appellation of common application [to the whole nation]: (T, K:) [and in the lexicons and lexicological works applied to the desert Arabs of pure speech:] it is of the fem. gender: (Msb, K:) and العَرَبُ has two pls., namely, العُرُبُ, with two dammehs, and الأَعْرُبُ [which is a pl. of pauc.]: (Msb:) the rel. n. [which serves as a sing.] is ↓ عَرَبِىٌّ: (S, O, K: [عَرَبٌ عَرَبِىٌّ in the CK is a mistake:]) accord. to Az, (TA,) this appellation is applied to a man of established Arab lineage, even if he be not chaste, or correct, in speech. (Msb, TA.) The dim. of العَرَبُ is ↓ العُرَيْبُ, (S, O,) without ة, (O, TA,) an extr. word [with respect to analogy, as the undiminished noun is fem.]: (TA:) a poet (Abu-l-Hindee, whose name was 'Abd-El-Mu-min, son of 'AbdEl-Kuddoos, O, TA) says, وَمَكْنُ الضِّبَابِ طَعَامُ العُرَيْبِ وَلَا تَشْتَهِيهِ نُفُوسُ العَجَمْ

[And the eggs of dabbs are food of the little Arabs; but the souls of the Foreigners do not desire them]: in which he uses the dim. form to imply respect, or honour, like as it is used in the saying أَنَا جُذَيْلُهَا المُحَكَّكُ وَعُذَيْقُهَا المُرَجَّبُ [expl. in art. جذل]. (S, O.) b2: ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبَةُ (in which the latter word is used as a corroborative of the former as in لَيْلٌ لَائِلٌ, S, O) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرْبَآءُ (S, A, O, Msb, K) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرَبِيَّةُ (O) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرِبَةُ (K) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرِبَاتُ (CK [but this I do not find in any other copy of the K]) are appellations of The pure, or genuine Arabs: (S, A, O, K:) or those who spoke the language of Yaarub Ibn-Kahtán; which is the ancient language: (Msb:) and ↓ العَرَبُ المُسْتَعْرِبَةُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) as also ↓ العَرَبُ المُتَعَرِّبَةُ, (S, O, K,) is an appellation of The insititious [or naturalized Arabs]; (K;) those who are not pure, or genuine, Arabs: (S, O:) or those who spoke the language of Ismá'eel [or Ishmael] the son of Ibráheem [or Abraham], i. e., the dialects of El-Hijáz and the parts adjacent thereto: (Msb:) and the appellation of ↓ مُسْتَعْرِبَةٌ is thought by Az to apply [also] to people not of pure Arabian descent, who have introduced themselves among the Arabs, and speak their language, and imitate their manner or appearance. (TA.) [The former division is most reasonably considered as consisting of the extinct tribes ('Ád, Thamood, and others mentioned in what follows); or of these together with the unmixed descendants of Kahtán, whose claims to the appellation of genuine Arabs are held by many to be equally valid: and the latter division, as consisting of those whose origin is referred, through Ma'add and 'Adnán, to Ismá'eel (or Ishmael), whose wife was descended from Kahtán. What I find in the TA, on this subject, is as follows.] The former of these two divisions consisted of nine tribes, descendants of Irem [or Aram] the son of Sám [or Shem] the son of Nooh [or Noah]; namely, 'Ád, Thamood, Umeiyim, 'Abeel, Tasm, Jedees, 'Imleek [or Amalek], Jurhum, and Webári; and from them Ismá'eel [or Ishmael is said to have] learned the Arabic language: and the ↓ مُتَعَرِّبَة are [said to be] the descendants of Ismá'eel, the descendants of Ma'add the son of 'Adnán the son of Udd: so says Abu-l-Khattáb Ibn-Dihyeh, surnamed Dhun-Nesebeyn: or the former division consisted of seven tribes, namely, 'Ád, Thamood, 'Imleek, Tasm, Jedees, Umeiyim, and Jásim; the main portion of whom has become extinct, some remains of them, only, being scattered among the [existing] tribes: so says IDrd: and the appellation of ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبَةُ is also given to the descendants of Yaarub the son of Kahtán [only]. (TA.) [It should be observed, however, that the appellation of ↓ المُتَعَرِّبَةُ is, by those who hold the extinct tribes above mentioned as the only genuine Arabs, applied to the unmixed descendants of Kahtán; and ↓ المُسْتَعْرِبَةُ, to those who are held to be the descendants of Ismá'eel: thus in the Mz, 1st نوع.

Also, it should be observed that the appellation of ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبِةُ, in the conventional language of Arabic lexicology, is often applied to the Arabs of the classical ages, and the later Arabs of the desert who retained the pure language of their ancestors, indiscriminately: it is thus applied by writers quoted in the Mz (1st نوع) to all the descendants of Kahtán, and those of Ma'add the son of 'Adnán (through whom all the descendants of Ismá'eel trace their ancestry) who lived before the corruption, among them, of the Arabic language.] b3: ↓ الأَعْرَابُ is the appellation given to Those [Arabs] who dwell in the desert; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) such as go about in search of herbage and water; and Az adds, whether of the Arabs or of their freedmen: he says that it is applied to those who alight and abide in the desert, and are neighbours of the dwellers in the desert, and journey, or migrate, with them, to seek after herbage and water: (Msb:) it is not a pl. of العَرَبُ, not being like الأَنْبَاطُ, which is pl. of النَّبَطُ; (S, O;) but is a [coll.] gen. n.: (S:) الأَعَارِيبُ occurs as its pl. (S, O, K) in chaste poetry: (S:) it has no sing. [properly so termed]: (K:) the rel. n. is ↓ أَعْرَابِىٌّ, (S, O,) which is applied to single person; (Msb;) as also بَدَوِىٌّ: (TA:) Az says, if one say to an أَعْرَابِىّ, يَا عَرَبِىُّ, he is pleased; and if one say to an عَرَبِىّ, يَا أَعْرَابِىُّ, he is angry. (TA.) b4: Authors differ as to the cause why the عَرَب were thus called: some say, because of the perspicuity of their speech, from إِعْرَابٌ: others, that they were so called from Yaarub the son of Kahtán, who is said to have been the first that spoke the Arabic language; his original language having been, as asserted by IDrd, [what the Arabs term] Syriac; though some say that Ismá'eel was the first that spoke the Arabic language; and some, that Yaarub was the first that spoke Arabic, and that Ismá'eel was the first that spoke the pure Arabic of El-Hijáz, in which the Kur-án was revealed: others say that the عَرَب were so called from العَرَبَةُ, the name of a tract near El-Medeeneh, or a name of Mekkeh and the adjacent region, where Ismá'eel settled, or the same as Tihámeh [as is said in the Mgh, in which this is pronounced to be the most correct derivation], or the general name of the peninsula of Arabia, which is also called العَرَبَاتُ [as is said in the Msb]: but some say that they were so called in like manner as were the فُرْس and the رُوم and the تُرْك and others, not after the name of a land or other than a land, but by the coining of the name, not a term expressive of a quality or a state or condition &c. (TA.) [If the country were called العَرَبَةُ, an inhabitant thereof might be called, agreeably with analogy, عَرَبِىٌّ; and then, the people collectively, العَرَبُ: but I think that the most probable derivation is from the old Hebrew word

עְרֶב, meaning “ a mixed people,”

which the Arabs assert themselves to have been, almost from the first; and in favour of this derivation it may be reasonably urged that the old Himyeritic language agrees more in its vocabulary with the Hebrew and Phœnician than it does with the classical and modern Arabic.]

A2: See also عَرَبَةٌ.

A3: And see عَرِبٌ.

A4: [It also app. signifies (assumed tropical:) Vagueness (considered as an unsoundness) in a word; from the same as inf. n. of عَرِبَ used in relation to the stomach &c.:] see 4, latter half.

عَرَبَةٌ A river that flows with a vehement, or strong, current. (S, O, K.) A2: And i. q. نَفْسٌ [The soul, mind, or self]. (S, O, K.) [It is thought to occur in a pl. sense, without ة, as a coll. gen. n., in the following sense, quoted in the S immediately after the explanation above.] A poet says, (S,) namely, Ibn-Meiyádeh, (O,) لَمَّا أَتَيْتُكَ أَرْجُو فَضْلَ نَائِلِكُمْ

↓ نَفَحْتَنِى نَفَحَةً طَابَتْ لَهَا العَرَبُ [When I came to thee, hoping for the redundance of your bounty, thou gavest me a gift with which the souls were pleased]: (S, O:) thus related by some, and expl. as meaning طَابَتْ لَهَا النُّفُوسُ: but the [approved] relation is, طَارَتْ بِهَا العَرَبُ [(assumed tropical:) which the Arabs made to fly upon the wings of fame], i. e. حَدَّثَتِ العَرَبُ النَّاسَ بِهَا [meaning (assumed tropical:) of which the Arabs talked to the people]. (O.) A3: Also sing. of عَرَبَاتٌ (TA) which is the name of Certain stationary vessels that used to be in the Tigris. (K, TA.) b2: [As meaning A wheel-carriage of any kind (which is commonly called in Egypt عَرَبِيَّة) it is post-classical.]

(O, K, TA.) Omar said, ↓ لَا تَنْقُشُوا فِى خَوَاتِيمِكُمُ العَرَبِيَّةَ [Engrave not on your signets Arabic]: and Ibn-'Omar disapproved of engraving on a signet words from the Kur-án. (Mgh, * O, TA.) [عَرَبِىُّ الوَجْهِ often occurs in post-classical works as meaning Having an Arab face; i. e. long-faced; opposed to تُرْكِىُّ الوَجْهِ.] b3: See also عِرَابٌ, in two places.

(TA.) العَرَبِيَّةُ The Arabic language; (S, TA;) the language of the Kur-án. (Msb.) Katádeh says that the tribe of Kureysh used to cull, or select, what was most excellent in the dialects of the Arabs, [in the doing of which they were aided by the confluence of pilgrims from all parts of the country,] so that their dialect became the most excellent of all, and the Kur-án was therefore revealed in that dialect. (TA.) See also عَرَبِىٌّ, in two places. b2: And see عُرُوبَةٌ.

عَرْبَانُ [written in the TA without any syll. signs, but it is app. thus, fem. عَرْبَآءُ (like حَيْرَآءُ fem. of حَيْرَانُ), whence, probably, the appellation ↓ العَرَبُ العَرْبَآءُ,] A man chaste, uncorrupt, or free from barbarousness, in speech: so in the Towsheeh. (TA.) [See also عَرِيبٌ.]

(O.) b2: [Hence,] أَلْقَى عَرَبُونَهُ (assumed tropical:) He ejected his excrement, or ordure. (O, K, TA.) عِرْبِيَآءُ: see عَرُوبَآءُ.

(L.) b2: Lth read [in the Kur v. 65] وَعَبُدَ الطَّاغُوتُ; explaining the meaning to be, Et-Tághoot having become an object of worship; and saying that عَبُدَ, here, is a verb similar to ظَرُفَ and فَقُهَ: but Az says that in this he has committed a mistake.

(L.) مُحَرَّرًا ↓ اِعْتَبَدَ, occurring in a trad., or as some relate it, ↓ أَعْبَدَ, means He took an emancipated man as a slave: i. e. he emancipated a slave, and then concealed the act from him, or confined him, and made him to serve him by force; or he took a freeman, and pretended that he was a slave, and took possession of him by force.

عَبْدٌ, originally an epithet, but used as a subst., (Sb, TA,) A male slave; (S, A, O, L, Msb, K;) i. q. مَمْلُوكٌ; (L, K;) [but عَبْدٌ is now generally applied to a male black slave; and مَمْلُوكٌ, to a male white slave; and this distinction has long obtained;] contr. of حُرٌّ; (S, A, O, L, Msb;) as also ↓ عَبْدَلٌ, (L, K,) in which the ل is augmentative: (L:) and a servant, or worshipper, of God, and of a false god, or of the Devil: (Lth, L, &c.:) [you say عَبْدُ اللّٰهِ and عَبْدُ الشَّمْسِ &c.: see also عَابِدٌ, which signifies the same; and see the remarks in this paragraph on the pls. عَبِيدٌ and عِبَادٌ and عَبَدَةٌ &c.:] and a man, or human being; (M, A, L, K;) as being a bondman (مَرْبُوبٌ) to his Creator; (L;) applied to a male and to a female; (Ibn-Hazm, TA;) whether free or a slave: (K:) pl. أَعْبُدٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and أَعْبِدَةٌ and أَعْبَادٌ, (IKtt, TA,) [all pls. of pauc.,] of which the first is the most commonly known, (Msb,) and ↓ عَبِيدٌ and عِبَادٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) which two and the first are the most commonly known of all the many pls. of عَبْدٌ, (Msb,) عَبِيدٌ being like كَلِيبٌ as pl. of كَلْبٌ, a rare form of pl.; (S, O;) or, accord. to some, it is a quasipl. n.; accord. to Ibn-Málik, فَعِيلٌ occurs as a pl. measure, but sometimes they use it in the manner of a pl. and make it fem., as in the instance of عَبِيدٌ, and sometimes they use it in the manner of quasi-pl. ns. and make it masc., as in the instances of حَجِيجٌ and كَلِيبٌ; (MF;) [accord. to the general and more approved opinion, it is a quasi-pl. n., and therefore fem. and masc., but most commonly fem.;] and further it should be remarked that the common people agree in making a difference between عَبِيدٌ and عِبَادٌ, by the former meaning slaves [and by the latter meaning servants of God and also simply, with the article ال, mankind], saying, هٰؤُلَآءِ عَبِيدٌ these are slaves, and هٰذَا عَبْدٌ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللّٰهِ [this is a servant, of the servants of God]: (Az, L:) [and a distinction is also made between عِبَادٌ and عَبَدَةٌ, respecting which see what follows:] other pls. of عَبْدٌ are عُبْدَانٌ, (S, O, K,) like تُمْرَانٌ pl. of تَمْرٌ, (S, O,) and عِبْدَانٌ, (S, O, K,) like جِحْشَانٌ pl. of جَحْشٌ, (S, O,) and عُبُدٌ, (S, O, K,) like سُقُفٌ pl. of سَقْفٌ, (S, O,) or this is pl. of عَبِيدٌ, like رُغُفٌ pl. of رَغِيفٌ, (Zj,) and is also a pl. of عَابِدٌ, (L,) and some read [in the Kur v. 65] عُبُدَ الطَّاغُوتِ, (Akh, S, O,) and عُبْدٌ (MF) and عُبُودٌ and عُبَّدٌ and عُبَّادٌ and عَبَدَةٌ, (IKtt, TA,) the last three of which are also pls. of عَابِدٌ: (L:) one says of the worshippers of a plurality of gods, هُمْ عَبَدَةُ الطَّاغُوتِ [they are the servants of Et-Tághoot]; but the Muslims one calls عِبَادُ اللّٰهِ, meaning the servants, or worshippers, of God: (Lth, L:) [all these are pls. in the proper sense of the term, of the broken class:] and عَبْدُونَ, (O, K,) a pl. of the sound class, adopted because عَبْدٌ is originally an epithet: (TA:) and [the following, with the exception of the first, and of some which are particularized as being pls. of pls., are also said to be pls., but are properly speaking quasi-pl. ns., namely,] ↓ عَبُدٌ, (O, K,) accord. to some, who read [in the Kur ubi suprà] عَبُدَ الطَّاغُوتِ, making the former a prefixed noun, as meaning the servants (خَدَم) of Et-Tághoot; but it is a n. of the measure فَعُلٌ, like حَذُرٌ and نَدُسٌ, not a pl.; the meaning being the servant (خَادِم) of Et-Tághoot; (Akh, S, O;) and it is also used by poetic license for عَبْدٌ; (Fr, T, S, O;) and ↓ عِبِدَّانٌ and ↓ عِبِدَّآءُ and ↓ عِبِدَّى; (S, O, K;) or, accord. to some, the last of these signifies slaves born in a state of slavery; and the female is termed ↓ عَبْدَةٌ; and Lth says that ↓ عِبِدَّى signifies a number of slaves born in a state of slavery, generation after generation; but Az says that this is a mistake, that عِبِدَّى اللّٰهِ signifies the same as عبَادُ اللّٰهِ, that it is thus used in a trad., and that عِبِدَّى is applied in another trad. to poor men of the class called أَهْلُ الصُّفَّة; (L;) and ↓ عُبُدَّآءُ and ↓ عِبِدَّةٌ and ↓ عِبَادٌّ (IKtt, TA) and ↓ مَعْبَدَةٌ, like مَشْيَخَةٌ, (T, O, K,) and ↓ مَعْبُودَآءُ (Yaakoob, S, O, K) and ↓ مَعْبُودَى, (IKtt, TA,) and [pl. pl.] ↓ مَعَابِدُ, (O, K,) said to be pl. of مَعْبَدَةٌ; (TA;) and pl. pl. أَعَابِدُ, (K,) pl. of أَعْبُدٌ; (TA;) and عَبِيدُونَ, (Es-Suyootee, MF,) app. pl. of ↓ عَبِيدٌ. (MF.) فَادْخُلِى فِى عِبَادِى, in the Kur lxxxix. 29, means Then enter thou among my righteous servants: (Ksh, Bd, Jel:) or it means فِى حِزْبِى [among my peculiar party].

A2: Also A certain plant, of sweet odour, (O, K, TA,) of which the camels are fond because it makes the milk to become plentiful, and fattens; it is sharp, or hot, (حَادّ O, or حَارّ TA,) in temperament; and when they depasture it they become thirsty, and seek the water: (O, TA:) so says IAar.

↓ العَابِدِينَ, means The disdainers, or scorners, and the angry: (S, * L:) but Ibn-'Arafeh rejects this assertion: (TA:) these words are variously explained; as meaning There is not to the Compassionate a son; and I am the first of the angry disdainers or scorners of the assertion that there is: or, and I am the first of the deniers of this assertion: or, and I am the first of the worshippers of God according to the unitarian doctrine, or, of the worshippers of God of this people: or if there were to the Compassionate a son, I would be the first of his worshippers: or if there be to the Compassionate a son, I am the first of worshippers; but I am not the first worshipper of God: or, accord. to Az, the best interpretation is one ascribed to Mujáhid; i. e. if there be to the Compassionate a son in your opinion, I am the first of those who have worshipped God alone, and who have thus charged you with uttering a falsehood in this your assertion. (L.) عَبْدَةٌ: see عَبْدٌ, latter half.
