1 آمَتْ, (T, M, Mgh, K,) aor. ـِ (T, K,) inf. n. أَيْمَةٌ, (T, M, Mgh, K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and إِيمَةٌ and أَيْمٌ and أُيُومٌ, (M, K,) She had no husband; said of a virgin and of one who is not a virgin; (IAar, T, M, Mgh, K;) as also ↓ تأيّمت (Lth, T, M) and ↓ ائتامت: (M:) or, as some say, ↓ تأيّمت signifies she lost her husband by his death, she being still fit for husbands, having in her a remaining force of youth: (T:) and you say, آمَتْ مِنْ زَوْجِهَا, aor. ـِ inf. n. أَيْمَةٌ and أَيْمٌ and أُيُومٌ, (S, TA, [accord. to the former app. signifying the same as آمَتْ alone as explained above: or]) meaning she became bereft of her husband by his death, or by his being slain, and remained without marrying. (TA.) And آمَ, (T, S, Msb,) aor. ـِ (T, Msb,) inf. n. أَيْمَةٌ, (T,) He had no wife: (T, Msb:) or he lost his wife by her death: (S, * K, * and Ham p. 650:) and he did not marry; as also ↓ تأيّم. (Ham ubi suprà.) It is said of the Prophet, in a trad., كَانَ يَتَعَوَّذُ مِنَ الأَيْمَةِ (T, S) He used to pray for preservation from remaining long without a wife. (T.) and Yezeed Ibn-El-Hakam Eth-Thakafee says, كُلُّ امْرِىءٍ سَتَئِيمُ مِنْهُ العِرْسُ أَوْمِنْهَا يَئِيمُ (S) i. e. Every man, the wife will be bereft of him by his death, or he will be bereft of her by her death. (Ham p. 531.) One says also, مَا لَهُ آمَ وَعَامَ, meaning [What aileth him?] May his wife and his cattle die, or perish, so that he shall have no wife (حَتَّى يَئيِمَ) and be vehemently desirous of milk (يَعِيمَ). (S, K: [in the CK, erroneously, امٌ و عامٌ; and in a MS. copy of the K آمٌ ولاعامٌ.]) 2 أَيَّمَهُ اللّٰهُ inf. n. تَأْيِيمٌ, God made him to have no wife. (K, * TK.) And أَيَّمْتُ المَرْأَةَ, inf. n. as above; (Ham p. 11, and TA; *) or ↓ أَأَ مْتُهَا, like أَعَمْتُهَا; (T, S;) I made the woman to be a widow, by slaying her husband. (T, * S, and Ham ubi suprà.) Taäbata-sharrà says, فَأَيَّمْتُ نِسْوَانًا وَأَيْتَمْتُ إِلْدَةً

[And I have made women widows, by slaying their husbands; and children fatherless]. (TA.) 4 أَأَمْتُ المَرْأَةَ: see 2.5 تَأَيَّمَتْ and تأيّم: see 1, in three places. The former is also explained as signifying She became forlorn (تَحَوَّشَتْ) of her husband. (K in art. حوش.) And also, (TA,) or تَأَيَّمَتْ زَمَانًا, (ISk, T, S,) She remained some time without marrying. (ISk, T, S, TA.) And تأيّم, (Msb, K,) or تأيّم زَمَانًا, (ISk, T, S,) He remained some time without marrying. (ISk, T, S Msb, K.) 8 ائْتَامَتْ, written with the disjunctive alif اِيــتَامَتْ: see 1.

A2: ائْتَمْتُهَا, (M, K,) like اعْتَمْتُهَا, (TA,) I took her as my wife, she being what is termed أَيِّم [without a husband]. (M, K.) أَيْمَ is a contraction of أَىُّ مَا, meaning أَىُّ شَىْءٍ: it is thus in the saying, أَيْمَ هُوَيَا فُلَانُ [What thing is it, O such a one?]: and أَيْمَ تَقُولُ [What thing sayest thou?]. (TA.) A2: اَيْــمُ اللّٰهِ [for اَيْــمُنُ اللّٰهِ]: see in art. يمن. (K.) أَيَمُّ, for أَأَمُّ: see art. ام.

أَيْمَا: see أَمَّا: A2: and إِمَّا.

إيمَا: see إِمَّا.

أَيْمَانُ A man whose wife has died: and أَيْمَى

A woman whose husband has died: pl. أَيَامَى, of both; like as سَكَارَي is pl. of سَكْرَانُ: accord. to ISk, أَيَامَى is originally أَيَائِمُ. (Msb.) [See also أَيِّمٌ.] أَيْمَانُ عَيْمَانُ are epithets applied to a man, (M, K, TA,) meaning Whose wife [and cattle] have died or perished [so that he has no wife and is vehemently desirous of milk; as shown above; see 1, last signification]: (TA:) the former relates to wives; and the latter, to milk: (S, K, TA:) fem. أَيْمَى عَيْمَى, applied to a woman. (M, K.) أَيِّمٌ A woman having no husband; (Lth, T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) whether she be a virgin or not; (IAar, T, S, M, Mgh, K;) or whether she have married before or not; (Sgh, Msb;) as also أَيِّمَةٌ; (Msb;) [said to be] applied to one who has not married: (IAar, T:) or if not a virgin; accord. to [the Imám] Mohammad; agreeably with a reading of a trad. by which the أَيِّم is distinguished from the virgin: (Mgh:) also, the former, a man having no wife; (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) whether he have married before or not: (S, Sgh, K:) or who has not married: (IAar, T:) pl. أَيَامَى (S, M, K) and أَيَائِمُ; (M, K;) the latter of which is the original form: (S, M:) [or both, accord. to the Msb, are pls. of أَيْمَانُ, q. v.:] and أَيِّمُونَ is a pl. applied to men, and أَيِّمَاتٌ applied to women: and آمَةٌ, also, signifying men having no wives, is pl. of ↓ آئِمٌ for أَيِّمٌ. (TA.) b2: Also A free woman: (K:) pl., in this sense also, أَيَامَى, used in this sense in the Kur xxiv. 32, (T, TA,) accord. to some. (TA.) b3: And A female relation; (K;) in which sense also أَيَامَى is pl.; (T, TA;) meaning such as the daughter and the sister and the maternal aunt. (T, K.) آئِمٌ: see أَيِّمٌ.

الحَرْبُ مَأْيَمَةٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) لِلنِّسآءَ (M, K) War is a cause of widowing to women; it slays the men, and leaves the wives without husbands. (T, S, M, Msb.) مُؤْيَمَةٌ A rich, or wealthy, woman, or one possessing competence or sufficiency, having no husband. (Sgh, K.) مَآئِمُ: see آمَّةٌ, in art. ام.

ايــس

1 أَيِسَ مِنْهُ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـْ (S, Msb, K) and يَأْيِسُ, (Msb,) inf. n. أَيَسٌ, (Msb,) or إِيَاسٌ, (K,) or it has the same inf. n. as يَئِسَ, namely يَأْسٌ, (S,) with which ↓ إِيَاسٌ is syn., (Mgh,) but this last is a contraction of إِيآسٌ, of the measure إِيعَاسٌ, as determined by Az, and is not an inf. n. of أَيِسَ as some think it to be, (Mgh, art. يئِس,) He despaired of it; syn. قنِط: (K:) a dial. var. of يَئِسَ: (ISk, S, TA:) or it is not so, but is formed by transposition from يَئِسَ, because it has no [proper] inf. n.; and إِيَاسٌ, the proper name of a man, is not to be adduced in evidence, for it is of the measure فِعَالٌ from الأَوْسُ, “ the act of giving: ” (Preface to the M, quoted in the TA:) if it were a dial. var. of يَئِسَ, they would say إِسْتُ for أَيِسْتُ: (M, TA:) and أُيِسَ, incorrectly written أُويسَ, also signifies the same. (Mgh.) A2: أَيْسَ: see لَيْسَ.2 اَيَّــسَ see 4.4 آيَسَهُ He made him to despair; (K;) like

أَيْأَسَهُ; (S, Mgh;) and so ↓ أيّسهُ, (S * K,) inf. n. تَأْيِيسٌ. (S.) أَيِسٌ and ↓ آيِسٌ [Despairing]; part. ns. of أَيِسَ. (Msb.) b2: [Hence,] آيِسَةٌ [and accord. to Golius ↓ أَيْسَآءُ, both properly meaning Despairing of the recurrence of the menstrual flux;] who has not menstruated in a period of five and fifty years. (KT.) أَيْسَآؤُ: see أَيِسٌ.

إِيَاسٌ: see 1.

آيِسٌ: see أَيِسٌ.

ايــك

1 أَيِكَ الأَرَاكُ, aor. ـَ The [trees called] اراك became what is termed أَيْكَة [n. un. of أَيْكٌ, q. v.]; as also ↓ استأيك. (K.) The former occurs in poetry contracted into أَيْكَ. (ISd, Sgh.) 10 إِسْتَــاْيَــكَ see 1.

أَيْكٌ Numerous, luxuriant or tangled or dense, trees: (S, K:) or a place where water collects and sinks into the ground (غَيْضَةٌ) producing [trees of the kinds called] سِدْر and أَرَاك (Lth, K) and similar soft trees: (Lth:) or a collection of any trees; even, of palm-trees: (K:) or, as some say, a place where [trees of the kind called] أَثْل grow, and where is a collection of them: or, accord. to AHn, an abundant collection of أَرَاك in one place: (TA:) or trees; said to be of the [kind called] أَرَاك: (Msb:) n. un. with ة: (S, Msb, K, &c.:) IAar says, [you say,] أَيْكَةٌ أَثْلٍ and رَهْطٌ, and قَصِيمَةٌ. (Sh.) أَصْحَابُ الْأَيْكَةِ occurs in the Kur in four chapters: [xv. 78 and xxvi. 176 and xxxviii. 12 and 1.13:] (Sgh:) he who reads thus means, by the latter word, الغَيْضَة [explained above, and also signifying the thicket, or collection of tangled trees, &c.]; (S, K;) or the tangled, or luxuriant, or abundant and dense, trees: (TA:) another reading is لَيْكَةَ; accord. to which, this is the name of the town [in which the people here mentioned dwelt]: (S, K:) or, as some say, the two words are [applied to the same place,] like بَكَّةُ and مَكَّةُ: (S:) but Zj says that another reading is allowable, and very good; i. e. أَصْحَابُ لَيْكَةِ, as being originally الأيْكَةِ; for the Arabs say, اَلَحْمَرُ قَدْ جَآءَنِى and لَحْمَرُ جَآإَنِى for الأَحْمَرُ; so that لَيْكَة is like لَحْمَر. (TA.) أَيْكٌ أَيِكٌ, (K, TA,) like كَتِفْ, (TA, [agreeably with the verb, but in the CK اٰيِكٌ,]) is a phrase in which the latter word signifies مُثْمِرٌ [Putting forth fruit; &c.]: (K, TA:) or, as some say, it is an intensive epithet [signifying very abundant or luxuriant or tangled &c.]. (M, TA.)
