(S, Msb, K.) لَا تَحْزَنْ and لَا تَحْزَنُوا, in the Kur [ix. 40, &c., and iii. 133], do not denote a prohibition of getting حُزْن; for حُزْن does not come by the will of man: the real meaning is Do not thou, and ye, that which engenders حُزْن; do not thou, and ye, acquire حُزْن. (Er-Rághib. [But this requires consideration; or, rather, is not in every case admissible.]) A2: حَزَنَهُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (Msb, TA,) inf. n. حُزْنٌ; (K;) and ↓ احزنهُ; He, (another person, S,) or it, (an affair, or an event, or a case, Msb, K,) caused him to be affected with حُزْن [which see below; i. e. grieved him; or caused him to mourn or lament, or to be sorrowful or sad or unhappy; &c.]: (S, Msb, K:) accord. to Yz, (S,) the former is of the dial. of Kureysh; and the latter, of the dial. of Temeem: (S, Msb:) and so say Th and Az: (Msb, TA:) but the former is said to be the more approved: (TA:) or, accord. to Az, the aor. of the former is used, but not the pret.; (Msb, TA;) and when the act is ascribed to God, the latter verb is used: Z, also, says that what is well known in usage is the employing the pret. of the latter and the aor. of the former: (TA:) or احزنهُ signifies he made him حَزِين [q. v.]; and حَزَنَهُ, [in some copies of the K ↓ حزّنهُ,] he made حُزْن to be in him: (Sb, K:) or حَزَنَهُ, it caused him to fall into حُزْن.

حَزْنٌ Rugged (S, Msb, K) and hard (S) ground: (S, Msb, K:) or rugged high ground: (TA: [see also حَزْمٌ:]) good land, though hard, is not thus termed: (ISh:) pl. حُزُونٌ: (Msb, TA:) and ↓ حَزْنَةٌ signifies the same as حَزْنٌ: (K:) so too, as some say, does ↓ حُزُونٌ, with two dammehs; or, as others say, this is a pl. of حَزْنٌ: and you say also ↓ أَرْضٌ حَزْنِيَّةٌ [meaning the same as حَزْنٌ, or land of a rugged, or rugged and hard, or rugged and high, kind].

(of إِنْسٌ, M, TA) is آنَاسٌ; (M, K, TA;) and (of the same, K in art. نوس, or of ↓ إِنْسَانٌ, M) أُنَاسٌ, (M, K ubi suprà,) with which نَاسٌ is syn., (S, M, Msb, K,) being a contraction thereof; (Sb, S, M, Msb;) and (of ↓ إِنْسِىٌّ, S, M, or ↓ أَنَسِىٌّ, S, or of ↓ إِنْسَانٌ, Lh, S, M, Msb) أَنَاسِىٌّ, (Lh, S, M, Msb, K,) like as كَرَاسِىُّ is pl. of كُرْسِىٌّ, or like as سَرَاحينُ is pl. of سِرحَانٌ, but ى being substituted for ن, (M, TA,) after the same manner as they say أَرَانٍ for أَرَانِبُ; (Fr, TA;) and أَنَاسٍ, (Lh, M,) in the accus. case أَنَاسِىَ, as the word is read in the Kur xxv. 51, by Ks, (TA,) and by Yahyà Ibn-El-Hárith, (K, TA,) dropping the ى between the second and last radical letters, [for, with some others, it seems, they held the word to be derived from the root نسى,] (TA,) and أَنَاسِيَةٌ, (S, M, K,) in which the ة is a substitute for one of the two yás in أَنَاسِىُّ, a pl. of إِنْسَانٌ; or, accord. to Mbr, أَنَاسِيَةٌ is pl. of إِنْسِىٌّ, [in the TA, of إِنْسِيَّةٌ, which I regard as a mistranscription,] and is like زَنَادَقَةٌ for زَنَادِيقُ, and فَرَازِتَةٌ for فَرَازِينُ; (M, TA;) and you say also إِنْسَيُّونَ. (TA.) نَاسٌ is masc., as in the Kur ii. 19, &c.; and sometimes fem., as meaning A tribe, or a body of men, قَبِيلَةٌ, or طَائِفَةٌ; as in the phrase, mentioned by Th, جَآءَتَْكَ النَّاسُ, meaning, The tribe, or portion of people (قِطْعَة), came to thee. (M, TA.) ↓ بَنُوالإِنْسَانِ means The sons of Adam. (M.) And النَّاسُ النَّاسُ, an expression mentioned by Sb, means, Men in every place and in every state are men: a poet says, بِلَادٌ بَهَا كُنَّا وَكُنَّا نُحِبُّهَا

إِذِ النَّاسُ نَاسٌ وَالبِلَادُ بِلَادُ meaning [A country in which we were, and which we used to love,] since the men were ingenuous men, and the country was a fruitful country. (M.) The following trad., لَوْ أَطَاعَ اللّٰهُ النَّاسَ فِى النَّاسِ لَمْ يَكُنْ نَاسٌ If God complied with the prayer of men with respect to men there would be no men, is said to mean, that men love to have male children born to them, and not females, and if there were no females, or if the females were not, men would cease to be. (TA.) It is related that a party of the jinn, or genii, came to a company of men, and asked permission to go in to them, whereupon the latter said to them, Who are ye? and they answered, نَاسٌ مِنَ الجنِّ [A people of the jinn], making their answer to accord. with common usage; for it is customary for men, when it is said to them, Who are ye? to answer, نَاسٌ مِنْ بَنِى فُلَانٍ [Men of the sons of such a one]. (IJ, M, L: but in the L, for ناس, in both instances, we find أُنَاسٌ.) [See also نَاسٌ in art. نوس.] Respecting the derivation of ↓ إِنْسَانٌ, authors differ, though they agree that the final ن is augmentative: the Basrees say that it is from الإِنْسُ; (Msb;) and its measure is فِعْلَانٌ; (S, Msb;) but an addition, of ى, is made in its dim., [which is أُنَيْسِيَانٌ,] like as an addition is made in رُوَيْجِلٌ, the dim. of رَجُلٌ: (S:) [but it should be observed that رُوَيْجِلٌ is more probably the dim. of رَاجِلٌ:] some say that it is from إِينَاسٌ, signifying “perception,” or “sight,” and “knowledge,” and “sensation;” because man uses these faculties: (TA:) and Mohammad Ibn-'Arafeh El-Wásitee says that men are called إِنسِيُّونِ because they are seen (يُؤْنَسُونَ, i. e. يُرَوْنَ), and that the jinn are called جِنّ because they are [ordinarily] concealed (مُجْتَنُّونَ, i. e. مُتَوَارُونَ,) from the sight of men: (TA:) [it is said in the B, as cited in the TA, that the form أَنِسَان is also used for إِنْسَانٌ; as though it were a dual, meaning “a double associate,” i. e., an associate with the jinn and with his own kind; for it is added, أَنِسَ بِالآْجِنِّ وَأَنِسَ بِالآْخَلْقِ:] some derive the word from النَّوْسُ, signifying “motion:” (TA:) some (namely, the Koofees, Msb) say that it is originally إِنسِيَانٌ, (S, Msb, TA,) of the measure إِفْعِلَانٌ, (S, Msb,) from النِّسْيَانُ [“forgetfulness”], (Msb,) and contracted to make it more easy of pronunciation, because of its being so often used; (S;) but it is restored to its original in forming the dim., (S, Msb,) which is أُنَيْسِيَانٌ: (Msb, TA:) this form of the dim., they say, shows the original form of the word which is its source; (TA;) and they adduce as an indication of its derivation the saying of I'Ab, إِنَّمَا سُمِّيَ

إِنْسَانًا لِأَنَّهُ عُهِدَ إِلَيْهِ فَنَسِىَ [He (meaning the first man) was only named انسان because he was commanded and he forgot]: (S, TA:) [in like manner,] it is said that النَّاسُ is originally النَّاسِى; the former of these, accord. to one reading, and the latter accord. to another, occurs in the Kur ii. 195; the latter referring to Adam, and to the words of the Kur in xx. 114: (TA:) but Az holds that إِنْسِيَانٌ is of the measure فِعْلِيَانٌ, from الإِنْسُ, and similar to خِرْصِيَانٌ. (L, TA. *) أَنَسٌ i. q. أُنْسٌ, q. v. (S, K.) A2: Also i. q. إِنْسٌ, q. v. (Akh, S, TA.) b2: Also A numerous company of men; (K, * TA;) many men. (TA.) b3: A tribe (حَىُّ) staying, residing, dwelling, or abiding: (S, K:) the people of a place of alighting or abode: (M, TA: [but in the latter, in one place, said to be إِنْسٌ, with kesr; though a verse cited in both, as an ex., shows it to be أَنَسٌ:]) the inhabitants of a house: (AA, TA:) pl. (of the word in the first sense, of these three, TA, and in the second, M, TA) آنَاسٌ. (M, TA.) b4: One with whom a person is sociable. (Ham p. 136.) You say also, هُمْ أَنَسُ فُلَانٍ They are they with whom such a one is sociable (اَلَّذِينَ يَسْتَأْنِسُ إِلَيْهِمْ). (Lh, M.) And هُوَ أَنَسُ فُلَانٍ He is much accustomed to the serving of him. (Har p. 472.) أَنَسَةٌ i. q. أُنْسٌ, q. v. (S, K.) إِنْسِىُّ Of, or belonging to, mankind; human; [as also ↓ أَنَسِىٌّ, and ↓ إِنْسَانِىُّ;] a rel. n. from

إِنْسٌ. (M.) b2: A human being; a man; as also ↓ أَنَسِىٌّ, (S, K,) and ↓ إِنْسَانٌ. (S, A, Msb, K.) See إِنْسٌ, in two places. b3: [Domestic, as opposed to wild. Ex.] حُمُرٌ إِنْسِيَّةٌ Domestic asses; asses that are accustomed to the houses: commonly known as written with kesr to the أُنْسِيَّةٌ: but in the book of Aboo-Moosà is an indication of its being with damm to the ء [أَنَسِيَّةٌ]: and as some relate a trad. in which it occurs, أَنَسِيَّةٌ, which is said to be of no account. (TA.) b4: The left side (Az, S, M, Msb, K) of an animal, (Msb,) or of a beast and of a man, (M,) or of anything: (Az, S, K:) or the right side: (As, S:) [but the latter seems to be a mistake:] Az says that Lth has well explained this term and its contrary وَحْشِىٌّ, saying that the latter is the right side of every beast; and the former, the left side; agreeably with those of the first authority in sound learning; and [that] it is related of El-Mufaddal and As and AO, that all of them asserted the latter to be, of every animal except man, [the “far” side, or “off” side,] the side on which it is not milked nor mounted; and the former, [the near side,] the side on which the rider mounts and the milker milks: (TA in art. وحش:) [and the like is said, as a citation from Az, in the Msb in art. وحش: but after this, in my copy of the Msb, there seems to be an omission; for it is immediately added, “But Az says, This is not correct in my opinion:”] it is said that everything that is frightened declines to its right side; for the beast is approached to be mounted and milked on the left side, and, fearing thereat, runs away from the place of fear, which is the left side, to the place of safety, which is the right side: (S, * IAmb in Msb; both in art. وحش:) [accordingly,] Er-Rá'ee describes a beast as declining to the side termed الوحشى because frightened on the left side: (S and Msb in art. وحش:) and 'Antarah alludes to one's shrinking with the side so termed from the whip, [which he likens to a cat,] because the whip of the rider is in his right hand: (S in art. وحش:) but Abu-l-'Abbás says that people differ respecting these two terms when relating to a man: that, accord. to some, they mean the same in this case as in the cases of horses and other beasts of carriage, and of camels: but some say, that in the case of a man, the latter term means the part next the shoulder-blade; and the former, the part next the arm-pit. (TA in art. وحش.) Of every double member of a man, as the upper half of each arm, and the two fore arms, and the two feet, it means That [side] which is towards the man; and وحشىّ, that which turns away from him: (As, S:) or, of the foot, the former means that [side] which is towards the other foot; [i. e., the inner side;] and the latter, the contrary of the former. (TA in art. وحش.) Of a bow, (S, M, K,) or of a Persian bow, (TA in art. وحش,) That [side] which is towards thee; (S, K;) and وحشىّ, the back: (S and K in art. وحش:) or the former, that [side] which is next to the archer; and the latter, that which is next to the animal shot at: (M, TA:) or of a bow, whether Persian or not is not said, [the former means the side against which the arrow lies; and] the latter, the side against which the arrow does not lie. (TA in art. وحش.) أَنَسِىٌّ: see إِنْسٌ and إِنْسِىٌّ, each in two places.

(S.) إِنْسَانِىٌّ: see إِنْسِىٌّ, first signification.

إِنْسَانِيَّةٌ Human nature; humanity; as also نَاسُوتٌ, which is probably post-classical, opposed to لَاهُوتٌ, q. v., in art. ليه.]

أَنُوسٌ A tame, or gentle, dog; contr. of عَقُورٌ: pl. أُنُسٌ. (M, A, K.) b2: See also آنِسَةٌ.

أَنِيسٌ i. q. ↓ مُؤَانِسٌ [generally used as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant, meaning, A sociable, companionable, conversable, friendly, or familiar, person; a cheerful companion]: (S, K:) one with whom one is sociable, companionable, conversable, friendly, familiar, or cheerful: (K:) a person, (A,) or anything, (S,) by whose company, or converse, or presence, one is cheered, gladdened, solaced, or consoled. (S, A.) You say, مَا بِالدَّارِ أنِيسْ (or, as in some copies of the K, مِنْ أَنِيسٍ,) There is not in the house any one by whose company, or converse, or presence, one is cheered, gladdened, solaced, or consoled: (A:) or there is not in the house any one.

(TA.) b3: الأَنِيسَةُ (tropical:) The fire; (IAar, A, K;) as also ↓ مَأْنُوسَةُ, [imperfectly decl., being a proper name and of the fem. gender,] (M,) and ↓ المَأْنُوسَةُ, (M, K,) of which [says ISd] I know no verb: (M:) because, when a man sees it in the night, he becomes cheerful and tranquil thereat, even if it be in a desert land. (TA.) You say, بَاتَتِ الأَنِيسَةُ

أَنِيسَتَهُ (tropical:) [The fire was during night his cheerful companion, or his cheerer by its presence]. (A, TA.) آنَسُ [More, and most, sociable, &c.]. Hence, آنَسُ مِنَ الحُمَّى (assumed tropical:) [A closer companion than fever]: a saying of the Arabs, meaning, that fever scarcely ever quits the patient; as though it were sociable with him. (M, TA.) جَارِيَةٌ آنِسَةٌ A girl of cheerful mind, (Lth, A, K, TA,) whose nearness, and conversation, or discourse, thou lovest, (Lth, TA,) or whose conversation, or discourse, and nearness, are loved: (A:) or a girl of pleasant conversation or discourse; as also ↓ أَنُوسٌ: (M:) and آنِسَةُ الحَدِيثِ who becomes sociable, companionable, conversable, friendly, familiar, or cheerful, by means of thy conversation or discourse: it does not mean who cheers thee [by conversation or discourse]: (S:) pl. أَوَانِسُ (Lth, A, TA) and آنِسَاتٌ: (Lth, TA:) and the pl. of أَنُوسٌ is أُنُسٌ.
