مَدينَةُ يَثْرِبَ:
قال المنجمون: طول المدينة من جهة المغرب ستون درجة ونصف، وعرضها عشرون درجة، وهي في الإقليم الثاني، وهي مدينة الرسول، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، نبدأ أولا بصفتها مجملا ثم نفصّل، أما قدرها فهي في مقدار نصف مكة، وهي في حرّة سبخة الأرض ولها نخيل كثيرة ومياه، ونخيلهم وزروعهم تسقى من الآبار عليها العبيد، وللمدينة سور والمسجد في نحو وسطها، وقبر النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، في شرقي المسجد وهو بيت مرتفع ليس بينه وبين سقف المسجد إلا فرجة وهو مسدود لا باب له وفيه قبر النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، وقبر أبي بكر وقبر عمر، والمنبر الذي كان يخطب عليه رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، قد غشي بمنبر آخر والروضة أمام المنبر بينه وبين القبر ومصلّى النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، الذي كان يصلّي فيه الأعياد في غربي المدينة داخل الباب وبقيع الغرقد خارج المدينة من شرقيّها وقباء خارج المدينة على نحو ميلين إلى ما يلي القبلة، وهي شبيهة بالقرية، وأحد جبل في شمال المدينة، وهو أقرب الجبال إليها مقدار فرسخين، وبقربها مزارع فيها نخيل وضياع لأهل المدينة، ووادي العقيق فيما بينها وبين الفرع، والفرع من المدينة على أربعة أيام في جنوبيّها، وبها مسجد جامع، غير أن أكثر هذه الضياع خراب وكذلك حوالي المدينة ضياع كثيرة أكثرها خراب وأعذب مياه تلك الناحية آبار العقيق، ذكر ابن طاهر بإسناده إلى محمد بن إسماعيل البخاري قال: المديني هو الذي أقام بالمدينة ولم يفارقها، والمدني الذي تحول عنها وكان منها، والمشهور عندنا أن النسبة إلى مدينة الرسول مدنيّ مطلقا وإلى غيرها من المدن مدينيّ للفرق لا لعلة أخرى، وربما ردّه بعضهم إلى الأصل فنسب إلى مدينة الرسول أيضا مدينيّ، وقال
الليث: المدينة اسم لمدينة رسول الله خاصة والنسبة للإنسان مدنيّ، فأما العير ونحوه فلا يقال إلا مدينيّ، وعلى هذه الصيغة ينسب أبو الحسن علي بن عبد الله بن جعفر بن نجيح السعدي المعروف بابن المديني، كان أصله من المدينة ونزل البصرة وكان من أعلم أهل زمانه بعلل حديث رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، والمقدّم في حفّاظ وقته، روى عن سفيان بن عيينة وحمّاد بن زيد وكتب عن الشافعي كتاب الرسالة وحملها إلى عبد الرحمن بن مهدي وسمع منه ومن جرير بن عبد الحميد وعبد العزيز الدراوردي وغيرهم من الأئمة، روى عنه أحمد بن حنبل ومحمد بن سعيد البخاري وأحمد بن منصور الرّمادي ومحمد بن يحيى الذّهلي وأبو أحمد المرئيّ وغيرهم من الأئمة، وقال البخاري: ما انتفعت عند أحد إلا عند علي بن المديني، وكان مولده سنة 161 بالبصرة، ومات بسامرّا وقيل بالبصرة ليومين بقيا من ذي القعدة سنة 234، ولهذه المدينة تسعة وعشرون اسما، وهي: المدينة، وطيبة، وطابة، والمسكينة، والعذراء، والجابرة، والمحببة، والمحببة، والمحبورة، ويثرب، والناجية، والموفية، وأكّالة البلدان، والمباركة، والمحفوفة، والمسلمة، والمجنة، والقدسية، والعاصمة، والمرزوقة، والشافية، والخيرة، والمحبوبة، والمرحومة، وجابرة، والمختارة، والمحرمة، والقاصمة، وطبابا، وروي في قول النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم: رب أدخلني مدخل صدق وأخرجني مخرج صدق، قالوا: المدينة ومكة، وكان على المدينة وتهامة في الجاهلية عامل من قبل مرزبان الزارة يجبي خراجها وكانت قريظة والنضير اليهود ملوكا حتى أخرجهم منها الأوس والخزرج من الأنصار، كما ذكرناه في مأرب، وكانت الأنصار قبل تؤدي خراجا إلى اليهود، ولذلك قال بعضهم:
نؤدي الخرج بعد خراج كسرى ... وخرج بني قريظة والنضير
وروى أبو هريرة قال: قال رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم: من صبر على أوار المدينة وحرّها كنت له يوم القيامة شفيعا شهيدا، وقال، صلى الله عليه وسلم، حين توجّه إلى الهجرة: اللهم إنك قد أخرجتني من أحبّ أرضك إليّ فأنزلني أحب أرض إليك، فأنزله المدينة، فلما نزلها قال: اللهم اجعل لنا بها قرارا ورزقا واسعا، وقال، عليه الصلاة والسلام:
من استطاع منكم أن يموت في المدينة فليفعل فإنه من مات بها كنت له شهيدا أو شفيعا يوم القيامة، وعن عبد الله بن الطّفيل: لما قدم رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، المدينة وثب على أصحابه وباء شديد حتى أهمدتهم الحمّى فما كان يصلي مع رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، إلا اليسير فدعا لهم وقال:
اللهم حبّب إلينا المدينة كما حببت إلينا مكة واجعل ما كان بها من وباء بخمّ، وفي خبر آخر: اللهم حبّب إلينا المدينة كما حببت إلينا مكة وأشدّ وصححها وبارك لنا في صاعها ومدّها وانقل حمّاها إلى الجحفة، وقد كان همّ، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أن ينتقل إلى الحمى لصحته، وقال: نعم المنزل الحمى لولا كثرة حيّاته، وذكر العرض وناحيته فهمّ به وقال: هو أصح من المدينة، وروي عنه، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أنه قال عن بيوت السّقيا: اللهم إن إبراهيم عبدك وخليلك ونبيك ورسولك دعاك لأهل مكة وإن محمدا عبدك ونبيك ورسولك يدعوك لأهل المدينة بمثل ما دعاك إبراهيم أن تبارك في صاعهم ومدهم وثمارهم، اللهم حبب إلينا المدينة كما حببت إلينا مكة واجعل ما بها من وباء بخمّ، اللهم إني قد
حرّمت ما بين لابتيها كما حرّم إبراهيم خليلك، وحرّم رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، شجر المدينة بريدا في بريد من كل ناحية ورخّص في الهش وفي متاع الناضح ونهى عن الخبط وأن يعضد ويهصر، وكان أول من زرع بالمدينة واتخذ بها النخل وعمّر بها الدور والآطام واتخذ بها الضياع العماليق وهم بنو عملاق بن أرفخشد بن سام بن نوح، عليه السّلام، وقيل في نسبهم غير ذلك مما ذكر في هذا الكتاب، ونزلت اليهود بعدهم الحجاز وكانت العماليق ممن انبسط في البلاد فأخذوا ما بين البحرين وعمان والحجاز كلّه إلى الشام ومصر، فجبابرة الشام وفراعنة مصر منهم، وكان منهم بالبحرين وعمان أمّة يسمون جاسم، وكان ساكنو المدينة منهم بنو هفّ وسعد ابن هفّان وبنو مطرويل، وكان بنجد منهم بنو بديل بن راحل وأهل تيماء ونواحيها، وكان ملك الحجاز الأرقم بن أبي الأرقم، وكان سبب نزول اليهود بالمدينة وأعراضها أن موسى بن عمران، عليه السلام، بعث إلى الكنعانيّين حين أظهره الله تعالى على فرعون فوطئ الشام وأهلك من كان بها منهم ثم بعث بعثا آخر إلى الحجاز إلى العماليق وأمرهم أن لا يستبقوا أحدا ممن بلغ الحلم إلا من دخل في دينه، فقدموا عليهم فقاتلوهم فأظهرهم الله عليهم فقتلوهم وقتلوا ملكهم الأرقم وأسروا ابنا له شابّا جميلا كأحسن من رأى في زمانه فضنّوا به عن القتل وقالوا:
نستحييه حتى نقدم به على موسى فيرى فيه رأيه، فأقبلوا وهو معهم وقبض الله موسى قبل قدومهم فلما قربوا وسمع بنو إسرائيل بذلك تلقوهم وسألوهم عن أخبارهم فأخبروهم بما فتح الله عليهم، قالوا: فما هذا الفتى الذي معكم؟ فأخبروهم بقصته، فقالوا: إن هذه معصية منكم لمخالفتكم أمر نبيكم، والله لا دخلتم علينا بلادنا أبدا، فحالوا بينهم وبين الشام، فقال ذلك الجيش: ما بلد إذ منعتم بلدكم خير لكم من البلد الذي فتحتموه وقتلتم أهله فارجعوا إليه، فعادوا إليها فأقاموا بها فهذا كان أول سكنى اليهود الحجاز والمدينة، ثم لحق بهم بعد ذلك بنو الكاهن بن هارون، عليه السلام، فكانت لهم الأموال والضياع بالسافلة، والسافلة ما كان في أسفل المدينة إلى أحد، وقبر حمزة والعالية ما كان فوق المدينة إلى أحد، وقبر حمزة والعالية ما كان فوق المدينة إلى مسجد قباء وما إلى ذلك إلى مطلع الشمس، فزعمت بنو قريظة أنهم مكثوا كذلك زمانا ثم إن الروم ظهروا على الشام فقتلوا من بني إسرائيل خلقا كثيرا فخرج بنو قريظة والنضير وهدل هاربين من الشام يريدون الحجاز الذي فيه بنو إسرائيل ليسكنوا معهم، فلما فصلوا من الشام وجّه ملك الروم في طلبهم من يردّهم فأعجزوا رسله وفآتوهم وانتهى الروم إلى ثمد بين الشام والحجاز فماتوا عنده عطشا فسمي ذلك الموضع ثمد الروم فهو معروف بذلك إلى اليوم، وذكر بعض علماء الحجاز من اليهود أن سبب نزولهم المدينة أن ملك الروم حين ظهر على بني إسرائيل وملك الشام خطب إلى بني هارون وفي دينهم أن لا يزوّجوا النصارى فخافوه وأنعموا له وسألوه أن يشرّفهم بإتيانه، فأتاهم ففتكوا به وبمن معه ثم هربوا حتى لحقوا بالحجاز وأقاموا بها، وقال آخرون: بل علماؤهم كانوا يجدون في التوراة صفة النبيّ، صلى الله عليه وسلّم، وأنه يهاجر إلى بلد فيه نخل بين حرّتين، فأقبلوا من الشام يطلبون الصفة حرصا منهم على اتباعه، فلما رأوا تيماء وفيها النخل عرفوا صفته وقالوا:
هو البلد الذي نريده، فنزلوا وكانوا أهله حتى أتاهم تبّع فأنزل معهم بني عمرو بن عوف، والله أعلم أيّ ذلك كان، قالوا: فلما كان من سيل العرم ما كان،
كما ذكرناه في مأرب، قال عمرو بن عوف: من كان منكم يريد الراسيات في الوحل، المطعمات في المحل، المدركات بالدّخل، فليلحق بيثرب ذات النخل، وكان الذين اختاروها وسكنوها الأنصار وهم الأوس والخزرج ابنا حارثة بن ثعلبة بن عمرو بن عامر بن حارثة بن امرئ القيس بن ثعلبة بن مازن بن الأزد وأمهم في قول ابن الكلبي قيلة بنت الأرقم بن عمرو ابن جفنة، ويقال: قيلة بنت هالك بن عذرة من قضاعة، وقال غيره: قيلة بنت كاهل بن عذرة بن سعد بن زيد بن ليث بن سود بن أسلم بن الحاف بن قضاعة ولذلك سمي بنو قيلة فأقاموا في مكانهم على جهد وضنك من العيش، وكان ملك بني إسرائيل يقال له الفيطوان، وفي كتاب ابن الكلبي: الفطيون، بكسر الفاء والياء بعد الطاء، وكانت اليهود والأوس والخزرج يدينون له، وكانت له فيهم سنّة الّا تزوّج امرأة منهم إلا أدخلت عليه قبل زوجها حتى يكون هو الذي يفتضّها إلى أن زوّجت أخت لمالك بن العجلان بن زيد السالمي الخزرجي، فلما كانت الليلة التي تهدى فيها إلى زوجها خرجت على مجلس قومها كاشفة عن ساقيها وأخوها مالك في المجلس، فقال لها: قد جئت بسوءة بخروجك على قومك وقد كشفت عن ساقيك، قالت: الذي يراد بي الليلة أعظم من ذلك لأنني أدخل على غير زوجي، ثم دخلت إلى منزلها فدخل إليها أخوها وقد أرمضه قولها فقال لها: هل عندك من خير؟ قالت: نعم، فماذا؟ قال: أدخل معك في جملة النساء على الفطيون فإذا خرجن من عندك ودخل عليك ضربته بالسيف حتى يبرد، قالت: افعل، فتزيّا بزيّ النساء وراح معها فلما خرج النساء من عندها دخل الفطيون عليها فشدّ عليه مالك بن العجلان بالسيف وضربه حتى قتله وخرج هاربا حتى قدم الشام فدخل على ملك من ملوك غسّان يقال له أبو جبيلة، وفي بعض الروايات أنه قصد اليمن إلى تبّع الأصغر ابن حسّان فشكا إليه ما كان من الفطيون وما كان يعمل في نسائهم وذكر له أنه قتله وهرب وأنه لا يستطيع الرجوع خوفا من اليهود، فعاهده أبو جبيلة أن لا يقرب امرأة ولا يمسّ طيبا ولا يشرب خمرا حتى يسير إلى المدينة ويذلّ من بها من اليهود، وأقبل سائرا من الشام في جمع كثير مظهرا أنه يريد اليمن حتى قدم المدينة ونزل بذي حرض ثم أرسل إلى الأوس والخزرج أنه على المكر باليهود عازم على قتل رؤسائهم وأنه يخشى متى علموا بذلك أن يتحصّنوا في آطامهم وأمرهم بكتمان ما أسرّه إليهم ثم أرسل إلى وجوه اليهود أن يحضروا طعامه ليحسن إليهم ويصلهم، فأتاه وجوههم وأشرافهم ومع كل واحد منهم خاصّته وحشمه، فلما تكاملوا أدخلهم في خيامه ثم قتلهم عن آخرهم فصارت الأوس والخزرج من يومئذ أعزّ أهل المدينة وقمعوا اليهود وسار ذكرهم وصار لهم الأموال والآطام، فقال الرّمق بن زيد بن غنم بن سالم بن مالك بن سالم ابن عوف بن الخزرج يمدح أبا جبيلة:
لم يقض دينك مل حسا ... ن وقد غنيت وقد غنينا
الراشقات المرشقا ... ت الجازيات بما جزينا
أشباه غزلان الصّرا ... ثم يأتزرن ويرتدينا
الرّيط والديباج وال ... حلي المضاعف والبرينا
وأبو جبيلة خير من ... يمشي وأوفاهم يمينا
وأبرّهم برّا وأع ... لمهم بفضل الصالحينا
أبقت لنا الأيام وال ... حرب المهمّة يعترينا
كبشا له زرّ يف ... لّ متونها الذّكر السّنينا
ومعاقلا شمّا وأس ... يافا يقمن وينحنينا
ومحلّة زوراء تج ... حف بالرجال الظالمينا
ولعنت اليهود مالك بن العجلان في كنائسهم وبيوت عبادتهم، فبلغه ذلك فقال:
تحايا اليهود بتلعانها ... تحايا الحمير بأبوالها
وماذا عليّ بأن يغضبوا ... وتأتي المنايا باذلالها!
وقالت سارة القرظية ترثي من قتل من قومها:
بأهلي رمّة لم تغن شيئا ... بذي حرض تعفّيها الرياح
كهول من قريظة أتلفتهم ... سيوف الخزرجية والرماح
ولو أذنوا بأمرهم لحالت ... هنالك دونهم حرب رداح
ثم انصرف أبو جبيلة راجعا إلى الشام وقد ذلّل الحجاز والمدينة للأوس والخزرج فعندها تفرّقوا في عالية المدينة وسافلتها فكان منهم من جاء إلى القرى العامرة فأقام مع أهلها قاهرا لهم، ومنهم من جاء إلى عفا من الأرض لا ساكن فيه فبنى فيه ونزل ثم اتخذوا بعد ذلك القصور والأموال والآطام، فلما قدم رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، من مكة إلى المدينة مهاجرا أقطع الناس الدور والرباع فخطّ لبني زهرة في ناحية من مؤخر المسجد فكان لعبد الرحمن ابن عوف الحصن المعروف به وجعل لعبد الله وعتبة ابني مسعود الهذليّين الخطّة المشهورة بهم عند المسجد وأقطع الزبير بن العوّام بقيعا واسعا وجعل لطلحة بن عبيد الله موضع دوره ولأبي بكر، رضي الله عنه، موضع داره عند المسجد، وأقطع كل واحد من عثمان بن عفّان وخالد بن الوليد والمقداد وعبيد والطفيل وغيرهم مواضع دورهم، فكان رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، يقطع أصحابه هذه القطائع فما كان في عفا من الأرض فإنه أقطعهم إياه وما كان من الخطط المسكونة العامرة فإن الأنصار وهبوه له فكان يقطع من ذلك ما شاء، وكان أول من وهب له خططه ومنازله حارثة بن النعمان فوهب له ذلك وأقطعه، وأما مسجد النبيّ، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، فقال ابن عمر: كان بناء المسجد على عهد رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، وسقفه جريد وعمده خشب النخل فلم يزد فيه أبو بكر شيئا فزاد فيه عمر وبناه على ما كان من بنائه ثم غيّره عثمان وبناه بالحجارة المنقوشة والقصّة وجعل عمده من حجارة منقوشة وسقفه ساجا وزاد فيه. وكان لما بناه رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، جعل له بابين شارعين باب عائشة والباب الذي يقال له باب عاتكة وبابا في مؤخر المسجد يقال له باب مليكة وبنى بيوتا إلى جنبه باللبن وسقفها بجذوع النخل، وكان طول المسجد مما يلي القبلة إلى مؤخره مائة ذراع، فلما ولي عمر بن عبد العزيز زاد في القبلة من موضع المقصورة اليوم، وكان بين المنبر وبين الجدار في عهد النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، قدر ما تمرّ الشاة، وكان طول المسجد في عهد عمر، رضي الله عنه، مائة وأربعين ذراعا وارتفاعه أحد عشر ذراعا، وكان بنى أساسه بالحجارة إلى أن بلغ قامة وجعل له ستة أبواب وحصّنه، وروي أن عمر أول من حصّن المسجد وبناه سنة 17 حين رجع من سرع وجعل طول جداره من خارج ستة عشر ذراعا، وكان أول عمل عثمان إياه في شهر ربيع الأول سنة 29 وفرغ من بنائه في المحرم سنة 30 فكانت مدة عمله عشرة أشهر وقتل عثمان وليس له شرّافات فعملها والمحراب عمر بن عبد العزيز، ولما ولي الوليد بن عبد الملك واستعمل عمر بن عبد العزيز على المدينة أمره بهدم المسجد وبنائه فاستعمل عمر على ذلك صالح بن كيسان وكتب الوليد إلى ملك الروم يطلب منه عمّالا وأعلمه أنه يريد عمارة مسجد النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم، فبعث إليه أربعين رجلا من الروم وأربعين من القفط ووجّه إليه أربعين ألف مثقال ذهبا وأحمالا من الفسيفساء، فهدم الروم والقفط المسجد وخمّروا النورة للفسيفساء سنة وحملوا القصّة من بطن نخل وعملوا الأساس بالحجارة والجدار والأساطين بالحجارة المطابقة وجعلوا عمد المسجد حجارة حشوها عمد الحديد والرصاص، وجعل عمر المحراب والمقصورة من ساج وكان قبل ذلك من حجارة وجعل طول المسجد مائتي ذراع وعرضه في مقدمه مائتين وفي مؤخره مائة وثمانين وهو سقف دون سقف، قال صالح بن كيسان: ابتدأت بهدم المسجد في صفر سنة 87 وفرغت منه لانسلاخ سنة 89 فكانت مدة عمله ثلاث سنين، وكان طوله يومئذ مائتي ذراع في مثلها فلم يزل كذلك حتى كان المهدي فزاد في مؤخره مائة ذراع وترك عرضه مائتي ذراع على ما بناه عمر بن عبد العزيز، وأما عبد الملك بن شبيب الغساني في سنة 160 فأخذ في عمله وزاد في مؤخره ثم زاد فيه المأمون زيادة كثيرة ووسّعه، وقرئ على موضع زيادة المأمون: أمر عبد الله بعمارة مسجد رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، سنة 202 طلب ثواب الله وطلب كرامة الله وطلب جزاء الله فإن الله عنده ثواب الدنيا والآخرة وكان الله سميعا بصيرا، والمؤذنون في مسجد المدينة من ولد سعد الفرط مولى عمّار بن ياسر، ومن خصائص المدينة أنها طيبة الريح وللعطر فيها فضل رائحة لا توجد في غيرها وتمرها الصّيحاني لا يوجد في بلد من البلدان مثله، ولهم حب اللبان ومنها يحمل إلى سائر البلدان، وجبلها أحد قد فضّله رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، فقال: أحد جبل يحبنا ونحبه وهو على باب من أبواب الجنة، وحرّم رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، شجر المدينة بريدا في بريد من كل ناحية، واستعمل على الحمى بلال بن الحارث المزني فأقام عليه حياة رسول الله وأبي بكر وعمر وعثمان وعلي ومعاوية وفي أيامه مات، وكان عمر بن عبد العزيز يقول: لأن أوتى برجل يحمل خمرا أحب إليّ من أن أوتى به وقد قطع من الحرم شيئا، وكان عمر بن الخطاب ينهى أن يقطع العضاه فتهلك مواشي الناس وهو يقول لهم عصمة، وأخبار مدينة رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، كثيرة وقد صنف فيها وفي عقيقها وأعراضها وجبالها كتب ليس من شرطنا ذكرها إلا على ترتيب الحروف وقد فعلنا ذلك، وفيما ذكرناه مما يخصها كفاية، والله يحسن لنا العافية ولا يحرمنا ثواب حسن النية في الإفادة والاستفادة بحق محمد وآله، وأما المسافات فإن من المدينة إلى مكة نحو عشر مراحل، ومن الكوفة إلى المدينة نحو عشرين مرحلة، وطريق البصرة إلى المدينة نحو من ثماني عشرة مرحلة ويلتقي مع طريق الكوفة بقرب
معدن النقرة، ومن الرّقّة إلى المدينة نحو من عشرين مرحلة، ومن البحرين إلى المدينة نحو خمس عشرة مرحلة، ومن دمشق إلى المدينة نحو عشرين مرحلة ومثله من فلسطين إلى المدينة على طريق الساحل، ولأهل مصر وفلسطين إذا جاوزوا مدين طريقان إلى المدينة أحدهما على شغب وبدا وهما قريتان بالبادية كان بنو مروان أقطعوهما الزهريّ المحدّث وبها قبره، حتى ينتهي إلى المدينة على المروة، وطريق يمضي على ساحل البحر حتى يخرج بالجحفة فيجتمع بهما طريق أهل العراق وفلسطين ومصر.

(O.) [See also رَجَلٌ, below; where it is explained as though a quasi-inf. n. of أَرْجَلْتُ in the sense here assigned to it in the S and O, or inf. n. of رَجَلْتُ in the same sense.] b2: And رَجَلَ

أُمَّهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. رَجْلٌ, (S,) He (a young camel, S, or a lamb, or kid, or calf, K, TA) sucked his mother. (S, K.) b3: رَجَلٌ also signifies The act of [the stallion's] leaping the mare: (O, K, TA:) [i. e., as inf. n. of رَجَلَ; for] one says, بَاتَ الحِصَانُ يُرْجُلُ الخَيْلَ The stallion-horse passed the night leaping the mares. (TA; and so in the O, except that الخيل is there omitted.) b4: And رَجَلَ المَرْأَةَ He compressed the woman. (TA.) A5: [Golius says that رَجُلَ signifies Vir et virili animo fuit; as on the authority of J; and that رُجْلَةٌ is its inf. n.: but it seems that he found الرُّجْلَةُ incorrectly explained in a copy of the S as مَصْدَرُ رَجُلَ instead of مَصْدَرُ الرَّجُلِ: ISd expressly says that رُجْلَةٌ and its syns. (explained below) are of the number of those inf. ns. that have no verbs.]2 رَجَّلَتْ وَلَدَهَا [app. a mistranscription]: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph.

A2: تَرْجِيلٌ [the inf. n.] signifies The making, or rendering, strong. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) A3: رجّل الشَّعَرَ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَرْجِيلٌ, (S, Msb, K,) He made the hair to be [wavy, or somewhat curly, i. e.] not very crisp or curly, nor lank, (S,) or in a state between that of lankness and that of crispness or curliness: (K:) or he combed the hair; (Msb, TA;) either his own hair, [see 5,] or that of another: (Msb:) or he combed down the hair; i. e., let it down, or made it to hang down, by means of the comb: (Mgh:) Er-Rághib says, as though he made it to descend at the رِجْل [or foot], i. e. from its places of growth; but this requires consideration: (MF:) or he combed and anointed the hair: (TA voce عَسِبٌ:) or he washed and combed the hair. (Ham p. 356.) 4 ارجلهُ He made him to go on foot; (S, K, TA;) to alight from his beast. (TA.) A2: and He granted him some delay, or respite; let him alone, or left him, for a while. (S, K.) b2: أَرْجَلْتُ الحِصَانَ فِى الخَيْلِ I sent-the stallion-horse among the mares. (TA.) b3: See also 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in three places.5 تَرَجَّلَ see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: ترجّل فِى البِئْرِ, (S, Msb, K,) and ترجّل البِئْرَ, (K,) He descended into the well (S, Msb, K) [by means of his feet, or legs, alone, i. e.,] without his being let down, or lowered, or suspended [by means of a rope]. (S, Msb.) b3: ترجّل الزَّنْدَ, and ↓ ارتجلهُ, [or, more probably, ارتجل الزَّنْدَةَ, and ترجّلها, (see مُرْتَجِلٌ,)] He put the زند [or the زندة; (the former meaning the upper, and the latter the lower, of the two pieces of wood used for producing fire,)] beneath his feet: (M, K:) or ↓ ارتجل signifies he (a man come from a distant country) struck fire, and held the زَنْد [here app. meaning (as in many other instances) the زند properly so called and the زندة] with his hands and his feet, [i. e. the زند with his hands and the زندة with his feet,] because he was alone. (TA. [See مُرْتَجِلٌ.]) A2: [ترجّل He became a رَجُل, or man; he rose to manhood. (See an explanation of ترجّل النَّهَارُ, in what follows.) And] ترجّلت She (a woman, TA) became like a رَجُل [or man] (K, TA) in some of her qualities, or states, or predicaments. (TA.) b2: ترجّل النَّهَارُ i. q. اِرْتَفَعَ (tropical:) [i. e. The day became advanced, the sun being somewhat high]; (S, IAth, O, K, TA;) it being likened to the rising of a man from youth; (IAth, TA;) and so النهار ↓ ارتجل: or, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former means the sun went down from [or below] the walls; as though it alighted (كَأَنَّهَا تَرَجَّلَتْ [in a proper sense of this verb: see 1, first sentence]). (TA.) A3: and ترجّل He combed his own hair: (Msb:) or he combed down his own hair; i. e., let it down, or made it to hang down, by means of the comb: (Mgh:) or he anointed [or washed] and combed his own hair. (TA. [See 2.]) Hence, نَهَى

عَنِ التَّرَجُّلِ إِلَّا غِبًّا (Mgh, TA) He [Mohammad] forbade the anointing and combing of one's own hair except it be less frequent than every day. (TA.) 8 ارتجل: see 1, first sentence. b2: Said of a horse, (in his running, TA,) He mixed the pace termed العَنَق with that termed الهَمْلَجَة, (T, TA,) or the former pace with somewhat of the latter, and thus, (S,) he went those two paces alternately, (S, K,) somewhat of the former and somewhat of the latter. (S.) A2: He took a man by his رِجْل [i. e. leg, or foot]. (S, TA.) b2: ارتجل الشَّاةَ: see 1, in the middle of the paragraph. b3: ارتجل الرَّنْدَ [or الزَّنْدَةَ], and ارتجل alone in a similar sense: see 5, in two places.

A3: [He extemporized a speech or verses; spoke it or them extemporaneously, impromptu, or without premeditation;] he began an oration (a خُطْبَة), and poetry, without his having prepared it beforehand; (S;) he spoke a speech (Msb, K) without consideration or thought, (Msb,) or without his having prepared it; (K;) he recited it, or related it, standing, without forecast, consideration, thought, or meditation; so accord. to Er-Rághib [who seems to have held this to be the primary signification of the verb when relating to a speech or the like]; or without reiteration, and without pausing, halting, or hesitating. (TA.) and ارتجل الشَّىْءَ [He did, performed, or produced, the thing without premeditation, or previous preparation]. (TA in art. خرع.) [And ارتجل اسْمًا He coined a name.] b2: ارتجل بِرَأْيِهِ He was, or became, alone, or independent of others, with none to take part or share or participate with him, in his opinion, (Msb, K, TA,) without consulting any one respecting it, (Msb, TA,) and kept constantly, or perseveringly, to it. (Msb.) [Hence,] أَمْرُكَ مَا ارْتَجَلْتَ Thine affair [to which thou shouldst keep] is that respecting which thou art alone [&c.] in thine opinion. (K.) and اِرْتَجِلْ مَا ارْتَجَلْتَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ is explained in the T as meaning اِرْكَبْ مَا رَكِبْتَ مِنْهُ [i. e. Undertake thou what thou hast undertaken of the affair: but it may rather signify keep thou to what thou hast undertaken of the affair; agreeably with what here follows]. (TA.) One says also, ↓ اِرْتَجِلْ رَجْلَكَ Keep thou to thine affair: (IAar, M, K, TA:) in [some of] the copies of the K, erroneously, رَجَلَكَ. (TA.) A4: He collected a detached number (قِطْعَة [or رِجْل]) of locusts, to roast, or fry, them. (S.) A5: He set up a مِرْجَل [q. v.], to cook food in it: (T, TA:) or he cooked food in a مِرْجَل. (K.) A6: ارتجل النَّهَارُ: see 5.10 استرجل He desired, or requested, to be, or to go, on foot. (KL.) رَجْلٌ: see رَجُلٌ: b2: and رَاجِلٌ; the latter in two places.

A2: See also رَجِلٌ, in two places.

A3: اِرْتَجِلْ رَجْلَكَ, in some of the copies of the K, erroneously, رَجَلَكَ: see 8, near the end of the paragraph.

رِجْلٌ [The leg of a human being and of a bird, and the kind leg of a quadruped; in each of these senses opposed to يَدٌ;] the part from the root of the thigh to the [sole of] the foot of a man [and of any animal]; (Mgh, Msb, K:) رِجْلُ الإِنْسَانِ meaning that [limb] with which the man walks: (Msb:) or the foot of a man [and of a bird, and the kind foot of a quadruped: or rather it signifies thus in many instances; but generally as before explained: and sometimes, by a synecdoche, it is used in a yet larger sense, as will be explained below]: (K:) of the fem. gender: (Zj, Msb, TA:) pl. أَرْجُلٌ: (S, Msb, K, &c.:) it has no other pl. (Msb, TA) known to Sb; (TA;) the pl. of pauc. being also used as a pl. of mult. in this instance. (IJ, TA.) [Hence,] الرِّجْلُ جُبَارٌ [The hind leg or foot, or it may here mean the leg or foot absolutely, is a thing of which no account, or for which no retaliation or mulct, is taken]: i. e., if a beast tread upon a man with its رِجْل, there is no retaliation or mulct, if in motion; but if the beast be standing still in the road, or way, the rider is responsible, whether it strike with a يَد or a رِجْل. (TA.) And هُوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رِجْلٍ [lit. He is standing upon a single leg; meaning] (assumed tropical:) he is setting about, or betaking himself to, an affair that presses severely, or heavily, upon him, or that straitens him. (T, K, TA. [In the CK, حَزَنَهُ is erroneously put for حَزَبَهُ.]) And أَنَا عَلَى رِجْلٍ (assumed tropical:) I am in fear, or fright, lest a thing should escape me.

[And رِجْلُ الجَوْزَآءِ اليُمْنَــى (assumed tropical:) The star k upon the right leg of Orion.] b4: رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ (assumed tropical:) A certain plant, (K,) called also رِجْلُ الرَّاغِ, the root, or lower part, of which, when cooked, is good for chronic diarrhœa; mentioned in art. غرب [q. v.]. (TA.) Also A certain mode of binding the udder of a camel, so that the young one cannot suck, therewith, nor will it undo: (S, K:) whence the phrase صَرَّ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ, for صَرَّ صَرًّا مِثْلَ صَرِّرِجْلِ الغُرَابِ. (TA.) El-Kumeyt says, صَرَّ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ مُلْكُكَ فِى النَّا سِ عَلَى مَنْ أَرَادَ فِيهِ الفُجُورَا (assumed tropical:) [Thy dominion among the people has bound with a bond not to be undone him who desires, within the scope of it, transgression]: (S, TA:) i. e. thy dominion has become firm so that it cannot be undone; like as what is termed رجل الغراب cannot be undone by the young camel. (TA.) And one says, صُرَّ عَلَيْهِ رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ, meaning (tropical:) The affair was, or became, difficult to him: (K and TA in art. غرب:) or his life, or subsistence, was, or became, difficult to him. (TA in that art.) b5: رِجْلُ الجَرَادِ (assumed tropical:) A certain plant, like البَقْلَةُ اليَمَانِيَّةُ [see art. بقل: accord. to Golius, the former appellation is applied to a species of atriplex, or orache]. (IAar, K.) b6: [And several other plants have similar appellations in the present day.] b7: رِجْلُ الطَّائِرِ (assumed tropical:) A certain مِيسَم [i. e. branding-instrument, or brand]. (S, K.) b8: رِجْلُ البَابِ (assumed tropical:) The foot, or heel, of the door, upon which it turns in a socket in the threshold. (MA.) b9: رِجْلُ القَوْسِ (assumed tropical:) The lower curved extremity of the bow; (Kh, S, K;) the upper curved extremity being called its يَد: (Kh, S:) or the part below its كَبِد [q. v.]: accord. to AHn, it is more complete, or perfect, than its يد: accord. to IAar, أَرْجُلُ القَوْسِ means, when the string is bound, or braced, the upper parts of the bow; and أَيْدِيهَا, its lower parts; and the former are stronger than the latter: and he cites the saying, لَيْتَ القِسىَّ كُلُّهَا مِنْ أَرْجُلِ [Would that the bows were all of them, or wholly, of what are termed أَرْجُل]: the two extremities of the bow, he says, are called its ظُفْرَانِ; and its two notches, its فُرْضَتَانِ; and its curved ends, its سِئَتَانش; and after the سئتان are the طَائِفَانِ; and after the طائفان, the أَبْهَرَانِ; and the portion between the ابهران is its كَبِد; this being between the two knots of the suspensory. (TA.) b10: رِجْلَا السَّهْمِ (assumed tropical:) The two extremities of the arrow. (K, * TA. [In the former it is implied that the phrase is رِجْلُ السَّهْمِ.]) b11: رِجْلُ بَحْرٍ (tropical:) A canal (خليج) of a بحر [or large river]. (Kr, K, TA.) b12: رِجْلٌ also signifies (tropical:) A part, or portion, of a thing: (K, TA:) of the fem. gender. (TA.) It is said in a trad. of 'Áïsheh, أَهْدَى لَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ رِجْلَ شَاةٍ مَشْوِيَّةٍ فَقَسَمْتُهَا إِلَّا كَتِفِهَا, meaning (tropical:) [Aboo-Bekr gave to us] the half of a roasted sheep, or goat, divided lengthwise [and I divided it into shares, except its shoulder-blade, or its shoulder]: she called the half thus by a synecdoche: (IAth, O, TA:) or she meant the leg (رجْل) thereof, with what was next to it [for مما يَلِيهَا in the O and TA, I read بِمَا يَلِيهَا] of the lateral half: or she thus alluded to the whole thereof, like as one does by the term رَأْس. (O, TA. [But see what here next follows.]) And in another trad., the رِجْل of a [wild] ass is mentioned as a gift, meaning (tropical:) One of the two lateral halves: or, as some say, the thigh: (TA:) and it is explained as meaning the whole; but this is a mistake. (Mgh.) b13: Also (assumed tropical:) The half of a رَاوِيَة [or pair of leathern bags, such as are borne by a camel, one on each side,] of wine, and of olive-oil. (AHn, K.) b14: It is also applied by some to (assumed tropical:) A pair of trousers or drawers; and رِجْلُ سَرَاوِيلَ occurs in this sense in a trad., for رِجْلَا سَرَاوِيلَ; like زَوْجُ خُفٍّ and زَوْجُ نَعْلٍ, whereas each is properly زَوْجَانِ; for the سراويل are of the articles of clothing for the two legs: (IAth, TA:) this is what is meant by the saying in the K [and in the O likewise] that الرِّجْلُ also signifies السَّرَاوِيلُ [app. for مِنَ السَّرَاوِيلِ الطَّاقُ]. (TA.) b15: Also (assumed tropical:) A swarm, or numerous assemblage, of locusts: (S:) or a detached number (قِطْعَةٌ) thereof: (K:) [or] one says [or says also] رِجْلُ جَرَادٍ, (S, TA,) and رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ: it is masc. and fem.: (TA:) a pl. without a proper sing.; like عَانَةٌ (a herd of [wild] asses, S) and خِيطٌ (a flock of ostriches, S) and صُِوَارٌ (a herd of [wild] bulls or cows, S): (S, K:) pl. أَرْجَالٌ; (K:) and so in the next two senses here following. (TA.) b16: And hence, as being likened thereto, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) An army: (K:) or a numerous army. (TA.) b17: Also (assumed tropical:) A share in a thing. (IAar, K.) So in the saying, لِى فِى

مَالِكَ رِجْلٌ (assumed tropical:) [To me belongs a share in thy property]. (TA.) b18: And (tropical:) A time. (TA.) One says, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلِى رِجْلِ فُلَانٍ (tropical:) That was in the time of such a one; (S, K, TA;) in his life-time: (K, TA:) like the phrase على رَأْسِ فُلَانٍ. (TA.) b19: Also (assumed tropical:) Precedence. (Abu-l- Mekárim, K.) When the files of camels are collected together, an owner, or attendant, of camels says, لِىَ الرِّجْلُ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) [The precedence belongs to me; or] I precede: and another says, لَا بَلِ الرِّجْلُ لِى (assumed tropical:) [Nay, but the precedence belongs to me]: and they contend together for it, each unwilling to yield it to the other: (Abu-l-Mekárim, TA:) pl. أَرْجَالٌ: (K:) and so in the senses here following. (TA.) b20: And (assumed tropical:) Distress; straitness of the means of subsistence or of the conveniences of life; a state of pressing want; misfortune; or calamity; and poverty. (O, K.) A2: Also A man who sleeps much: (O, K:) fem. with ة. (TA.) b2: And A man such as is termed قَاذُورَةٌ [which means foul in language; evil in disposition: one who cares not what he does or says: very jealous: one who does not mix, or associate as a friend, with others, because of the evilness of his disposition, nor alight with them: &c.: see art. قذر]. (O, K.) A3: Also Blank paper; (O, K, * TA;) without writing. (TA.) رَجَلٌ: see رَاجِلُ, first sentence: A2: and see also رَجِلٌ, in two places.

A3: [It is also explained as here follows, as though a quasi-inf. n. of 4 in a sense mentioned in the first paragraph on the authority of the S and O, or inf. n. of رَجَلَ in the same sense; thus:] The sending, (S, O,) or leaving, (K, TA,) a lamb or kid or calf, (S, O, TA,) or a young camel, (K, TA,) and a colt, (TA,) with its mother, to such her whenever it pleases: (S, O, K:) [but I rather think that this is a loose explanation of the meaning implied by رَجَلٌ used as an epithet; for it is added in the S and O immediately, and in the K shortly after, that] one says بَهْمَةٌ رَجَلٌ (S, O, K) and ↓ رَجِلٌ (K) [meaning, as indicated in the S and O, A lamb, or hid, or calf, sent with its mother to such her whenever it pleases, or, as indicated in the K, sucking, or that sucks, its mother]: pl. أَرْجَالٌ. (S, O, K.) b2: Also A horse [i. e. a stallion] sent upon the خَيْل [meaning mares, to leap them]: (K:) and in like manner one says خَيْلٌ رَجَلٌ, [using it as a pl., app. meaning horses so sent,] (K accord. to the TA,) or ↓ خَيْلٌ رَجِلَةٌ. (CK, and so in my MS. copy of the K: [perhaps it should be رَجَلَةٌ.]) رَجُلٌ (S, O, Mgh, Msb, K &c.) and ↓ رَجْلٌ, (O, K,) the latter a dial. var., (O,) or, accord. to Sb and El-Fárisee, a quasi-pl. n., [but app. of رَاجِلٌ, not of رَجُلٌ,] called by Abu-l-Hasan a pl., (TA,) A man, as meaning the male of the human species; (Msb;) the opposite of اِمْرَأَةٌ: (S, O, Mgh:) applied only to one who has attained to puberty and manhood: (K, * TA:) or as soon as he is born, (K, TA,) and afterwards also: (TA:) pl. رِجَالٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.,) [applied in the Kur lxxii. 6 to men and to jinn (or genii), like نَاسٌ and أُنَاسٌ, and likewise a pl. of رَاجِلٌ, and of its syn. رَجْلَانُ,] and رجَالَاتٌ, (S, K,) said by some to be a pl. pl., (TA,) and ↓ رَجْلَةٌ, (Sb, Msb, K, TA, in the CK رِجْلَةٌ, [which is a mistake, as is shown by what follows,]) of the measure فَعْلَةٌ, with fet-h to the ف, (Msb,) [but this is, properly speaking, a quasi-pl. n.,] said to be the only instance of its kind except كَمْأَةٌ, which, however, some say is a n. un. like others of the same form belonging to [coll.] gen. ns., (Msb,) used as a pl. of pauc. instead of أَرْجَالٌ, (Sb, Ibn-Es-Serráj, Msb, TA,) because they assigned to رَجُلٌ no pl. of pauc., (Sb, TA,) not saying أَرْجَالٌ (TA) [nor رِجْلَةٌ], and ↓ رَجِلَةٌ, mentioned by Az as another pl., but this [also] is a quasi-pl. n., and of it Abu-l-' Abbás holds ↓ رَجْلَةٌ to be a contraction, (TA,) and رِجَلَةٌ (Ks, K) and أَرَاجِلُ (Ks, S, K) and [another quasi-pl. n. is] ↓ مَرْجَلٌ. (IJ, K.) شَهِيدَيْنِ مِنْ رِجَالِكُمْ, in the Kur [ii. 282], means [Two witnesses] of the people of your religion. (TA.) [رَجُلٌ also signifies A woman's husband: and the dual] رَجُلَانِ [sometimes] means A man and his wife; predominance being thus attributed to the former. (IAar, TA.) And ↓ رَجُلَةٌ signifies A woman: (S, K:) or, accord. to Er-Rághib, a woman who is, or affects to be, or makes herself, like a man in some of her qualities, or states, or predicaments. (TA.) It is said of 'Áïsheh, (S, TA,) in a trad., which confirms this latter explanation, (TA,) كَانَتْ الرَّأْىِ, ↓ رَجُلَةَ, (S, TA,) meaning She was like a man in judgment. (TA. [See also مَرْجَلَانِيَّةٌ.]) The dim. of رَجُلٌ is ↓ رُجَيْلٌ and ↓ رُوَيْجِلٌ: (S, K:) the former reg.: (TA:) the latter irreg., as though it were dim. of رَاجِلٌ: (S, TA:) [but it seems that رُوَيْجِلٌ is properly the dim. of رَاجِلٌ, though used as that of رَجُلٌ.] One says, هُوَ رَجُلُ وَحْدِهِ [He is a man unequalled, or that has no second], (IAar, L in art. وحد,) and وَحْدِهِ ↓ رُجَيْلُ [A little man (probably meaning the contrary) unequalled, &c.]. (S and L in that art.) and it is said in a trad., إِنْ صَدَقَ ↓ أَفْلَحَ الرُّوَيْجِلُ [The little man prospers if he speak truth] (TA.) b2: Also One much given to coition: (Az, O, K:) used in this sense by the Arabs of ElYemen: and some of the Arabs term such a one عُصْفُورِىٌّ. (O, TA.) b3: And i. q. رَاجِلٌ, q. v. (Mgh, Msb, K.) b4: And Perfect, or complete [in respect of bodily vigour or the like]: ('Eyn, O, K, TA: [in the CK, والرّاجِلُ الكَامِلُ is erroneously put for والراَجل والكامل:]) or strong and perfect or complete: sometimes it has this meaning, as an epithet: and when thus used, Sb allows its being in the gen. case in the phrase, مَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ رَجُلٍ أَبُوهُ [I passed by a man whose father is strong &c.]; though the nom. case is more common: he says, also, that when you say, هُوَ الرَّجُلُ, you may mean that he is perfect or complete, or you may mean any man that speaks and that walks upon two legs. (M, TA.) A2: [In the CK, شَعَرٌ رَجُلٌ is erroneously put for شَعَرٌ رَجْلٌ: and, in the same, رَجُلُ الشَّعَرِ, as syn. with رَجِلُ الشَّعَرِ, is app. a mistake for رَجْلُ الشَّعَرِ; but it is mentioned in this sense by 'Iyád:] see the paragraph here following.

رَجِلٌ; and its fem., with ة: see رَاجِلٌ.

A2: شَعَرٌ رَجِلٌ (ISk, S, Msb, K) and ↓ رَجَلٌ (ISk, S, K) and ↓ رَجْلٌ, (Msb, K, [in the CK, erroneously, رَجُلٌ,]) Hair [that is wavy, or somewhat curly, i. e.] of a quality between [بَيْنَ, for which بَيِّنُ is erroneously put in the CK,] lankness and crispness or curliness, (K,) or not very crisp or curly, nor lank, (ISk, S,) or neither very crisp or curly, nor very lank, but between these two. (Msb, TA.) b2: And رَجِلُ الشَّعَرِ and ↓ رَجَلُهُ (ISd, Sgh, K) and ↓ رَجْلُهُ (ISd, K, TA, but accord. to the CK as next follows,] and ↓ رَجُلُهُ, with damm to the ج, added by 'Iyád, in the Meshárik, (MF, TA,) A man having hair such as is described above: pl. أَرْجَالٌ and رَجَالَى; (M, K;) the former, most probably, accord. to analogy, pl. of رَجْلٌ; but both may be pls. of رَجِلٌ and رَجَلٌ: accord. to Sb, however, رَجَلٌ has no broken pl., its pl. being only رَجَلُونَ. (M, TA.) A3: See also رَجَلٌ, in two places.

رَجْلَةٌ: see رَجُلٌ, first sentence, in two places: b2: and رَاجِلٌ.

مثل

1 مَثَلَ aor. ـُ , inf. n. مُثُولٌ; (S, M, K, &c.;) and مَثُلَ; (M, K;) He stood erect; (S, M, K, &c.;) بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ before him. (S, &c.) b2: مَثَلَ بِهِ, inf. n. مُثْلَةٌ, He mutilated him; castrated him; namely, a sheep or goat. (TA in art. دجن, from a trad.) 2 مَثَّلَ : see a verse of Kutheiyir in art. رود, conj. 4. b2: مَثَّلَهُ: see شَبَّهَهُ.3 مَاثَلَهُ i. q. شَابَهَهُ. (TA.) 4 أَمْثَلَهُ He set it up: from مَثَلَ “ he stood erect. ” b2: He set up a butt or mark: see an ex. voce غَرَضٌ.5 تَمَثَّلَ بِكَذَا [He affected to be like, or imitated, such a thing;] i. q. تَشَبَّهَ بِهِ. (TA, art. شبه.) b2: تَمَثَّلَ البَيْتَ and [more commonly] بِالبَيْتِ He used, or applied, the verse as a proverb, or proverbially. (MA.) b3: See تَشَبَّهَ.6 تَمَاثَلَ He became nearly in a sound, or healthy, state; or near to convalescence: (K:) or he became more like the sound, or healthy, than the unsound, or unhealthy, who is suffering from a chronic and pervading disease; (TA;) or so تماثل لِلْبُرْءِ. (M.) Said also of a wound: (T, S in art. دمل:) and of a disease; like أَشْكَلَ. (TA, art. شكل.) b2: تَمَاثَلَا i. q. تَشَابَهَا. (M, K in art. سوى.) 8 اِمْتَثَلَ أَمْرَهُ He followed his command, order, bidding, or injunction; did like as he commanded, ordered, &c.; (Mgh;) he obeyed his command, order, &c. (Msb.) مِثْلٌ A like; a similar person or thing; match; fellow; an analogue. (K, &c.) See نِدٌّ and voce بَدَلٌ. b2: A likeness, resemblance, or semblance; see شَبَهٌ. b3: An equivalent; a requital. b4: مِثْلَ, used as a denotative of state, means Like. Ex. مَرَّ مِثْلَ البَرْقِ He passed like the lightning. See an ex. in the Kur li. 23; and another, from Sakhr-el-Gheí, voce فَرْضٌ.

مَثَلٌ i. q. صِفَةٌ [as meaning A description, condition, state, case, &c.]; (S, K, &c.;) or وَصْفٌ [meaning the same]: (Msb:) or this is a mistake: (Mbr, AAF, TA:) or it may be a tropical signification: (MF, TA:) for in the language of the Arabs it means a description by way of comparison: (AAF, TA:) you say مثل زيد مثل فلان [The description of Zeyd, by way of comparison, or the condition, &c., is that of such a one]: it is from المِثاَلُ and الحَذْوُ: (Mbr, TA:) it is metaphorically applied to a condition, state, or case, that is important, strange, or wonderful. (Ksh, Bd in ii. 16.) The phrase here given is more literally, and better, rendered, The similitude of Zeyd is the similitude, or is that, of such a one; for a similitude is a description by way of comparison. b2: You say also, جَعَلَهُ مَثَلًا لِكَذَا [He made it (an expression or the like) to be descriptive, by way of comparison, of such a thing]. (TA passim.) [And مَثَلٌ لِكَذَا meansAn expression denoting, by way of similitude, such a thing.] b3: عَلَى المَثَلِ As indicative of resemblance to something. b4: See بَدَلٌ.

مِثَالٌ Quality, made, manner, fashion, and form; (Msb;) a model according to which another thing is made or proportioned; a pattern, (مِقْدَارٌ) by which a thing is measured, proportioned, or cut out: (T:) an example of a class of words, of a rule, &c. b2: مِنْ غَيْرِ سَبْقِ مِثاَلٍ [Without there having been any precedent]. (Msb in art. قرح, &c.) b3: [A bed:] بَناَتُ المِثَالِ The daughters of the bed; meaning women. (T in art. بنى.) جَوْزُ مَاثِلٍ : see جَوْزٌ.

تَمَاثِيلُ , in the following hemistich of Ibn-Ahmar, تَمَاثِيلُ قِرْطَاسٍ عَلَى هَبْهَبِيَّةٍ signifies كُتُبٌ يَكْتُبُونَهَا. (L, in TA, voce هَبْهَبِىٌّ, as signifying a “ light, or active,” camel.)
