[of the first] نَحَسٌ and [of the second نُحُوسَةٌ; (TA;) He, or it, was, or became, unprosperous, unfortunate, inauspicious, or unlucky: (S, A, K:) said of a man, (A, Bd,) and of a star, (TA,) or other thing.

And the former is also said of a man's جَدّ [or good fortune]. (A, TA.) نَحْسٌ Unprosperousness, unfortunateness, inauspiciousness, or unluckiness; contr. of سَعْدٌ; (S, A, K;) of stars, and of other things: pl.

[In Har, p. 375, a doubt is expressed respecting مَنَاحِسُ, as to its being a pl. of نَحْسٌ; but only from ignorance of their being any authority for its being so: it may, however, be pl. of مَنْحَسَةٌ, and not of نَحْسٌ.] In the Kur, [liv. 19,] some read, فى يَوْمِ نَحْسٍ [In a day of unprosperousness]: others read نحس as an epithet.

And يَوْمٌ نَحْسٌ (S, A, TA) [and نَحِسٌ] and نَحُوسٌ (A, TA) and نَحِيسٌ and مَنْحُوسٌ (TA) [An unprosperous day]: and in the pl., أَيَّامٌ نَحْسٌ, [which seems to indicate that نَحْسٌ is originally an inf. n.,] (TA,) and نَحْسَةٌ, and نَحْسَاتٌ, which is pl. of نَحْسَةٌ, (Az, TA,) and نَحِسَةٌ, (K,) and [its pl.] نَحِسَاتٌ, (S, TA,) and نَحِيسَةٌ, (K.) [and app. ↓ نَاحِسَةٌ,] and [its pl.] نَوَاحِسُ. (TA.) In the Kur, [liv. 19,] some read, ↓ فِى يَوْمٍ نَحْسٍ

[In an unprosperous day], as well as فِى يَوْمِ نَحْسٍ: (S, TA:) and AA reads [in the Kur, xli. 15,] فِى أَيَّامٍ نَحْسَاتٍ: and نَحِسَاتٍ is another reading. (TA.) You also say, ↓ عَامٌ نَاحِسٌ and ↓ نَحِيسٌ, meaning, (tropical:) A year of dearth or drought or sterility: (IDrd, K:) so they assert. (IDrd.) and ↓ النَّحْسَانِ is an appellation of The two planets Saturn and Mars: (Ibn-'Abbád, K:) like as [the contr.] السَّعْدَانِ is applied to Venus and Mercury.

(TA.) A2: Also, Fire: (IF, K:) and the sparks that fall from brass (صُفْر), or from iron, when it is beaten (AO, K) with the hammer: (TA:) or نُحَاسٌ signifies smoke: so in the Kur, lv. 35: (Fr, Az, Bd, and others; accord. to Az, all the interpreters of the Kur.; and it is wonderful that the author of the K has omitted this signification: TA:) but some say that it is ↓ نِحَاسٌ signifies the smoke of صُفْر; and نُحَاسٌ signifies صُفْر itself: (Ibn-Buzurj:) or the latter signifies smoke in which is no flame: (S, Jel:) or smoke that rises high, and of which the heat is weak, and which is free from flame: (AHn:) or molten صُفْر: (Bd:) and some read نُحُسٌ, which is the pl.

ربض

1 رَبَضَ, (S, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. رُبُوضٌ (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K) and رَبْضٌ (Msb, K) and رَبْضَةٌ, (K,) [the last an inf. n. of un.,] said of the sheep and goat, (S, A, Mgh, K,) and of the gazelle, (S, A,) and of the ox-kind, and the horse, (S,) or beast, (Msb,) and of the dog, (S, A,) [signifying He lay down, or laid himself down, upon his breast,] is like بَرَكَ said of a camel, (S, Msb, K,) and جَثَمَ said of a bird, (S, TA,) or جَلَسَ said of a man. (Mgh.) Said of a man, it means [(assumed tropical:) He lay down: and he sat: or] he sat upon his knees: and it may also mean he sat upon his thighs and his buttocks. (Har p. 172.) [And hence, (assumed tropical:) He remained fixed, or stationary, like an animal lying upon its breast; as is shown by what here follows: whence a signification of رَبَّضَ, q. v.] The saying of Mohammad to Ed-Dahhák, when he sent him to his people, إِذَا

أَتَيْتَهُمْ فَارْبِضْ فِى دَارِهِمْ ظَبْيًا, means When thou comest to them, remain in their abode in security, or without fear, like the gazelle in his covert: (IAar, ISd, K:) or trust them not, but be vigilant, like a wild animal, ready to spring up, for thou wilt be in the midst of the unbelievers; (Az, ISd, K; *) so, if anything induce in thee suspicion, thou mayest flee from them like the gazelle: (Az, ISd, TA:) accord. to each interpretation, ظبيا is in the accus. case as a denotative of state; the subst. being put in the place of the act. part. n., as though for مَتَظَبِّيًا: the former of the two explanations is said to be the more agreeable with the circumstances of the case. (TA.) Yousay also, رَبَضَ الأَسَدُ عَلَى فَرِيسَتِهِ, and القِرْنُ عَلَى

قِرْنِهِ, The lion laid himself down upon his breast (بَرَكَ) on his prey, and the adversary on his adversary. (K.) b2: He (a beast) lodged, and abode, in a place.

(S.) You say also of a ewe when she is pregnant, قَدْ رُبِضَ عَنْهَا. (Ibn- 'Abbád, A.) and you say of a man, رَبَضَ عَنْ مَعَالِى الأُمُورِ (assumed tropical:) He abstained, or held back, from seeking the means of acquiring eminence, or nobility. (TA.) b5: رَبَضَ اللَّيْلُ (A, K) (tropical:) The night cast its darkness [lit. itself (expl. by أَلْقَى بنَفْسِهِ) upon the earth]. (K.) A2: رَبَضَهُ, aor. ـِ and رَبُضَ, (IAar, O, K,) but the latter aor. was afterwards rejected by IAar, (TA,) He betook himself, or repaired, to him for lodging, covert, or refuge. (IAar, O, K.) A3: رَبَضَتْهُ, aor. ـِ and IAar is related to have said رَبُضَ also, but afterwards to have retracted it, (tropical:) She (a wife, or sister, or other woman,) undertook, or managed, his affairs, and gave him lodging, or refuge: (TA:) she was to him [as though she were] a رَبَض, or place of abode: like أَبَوْتُهُ “ I was to him a father,” and أَمَمْتُهُ “ I was to him a mother. ” (A, TA.) [The aor. occurs in the K, in the phrase تَرْبِضُ زَوْجَهَا: thus in the TA: in the CK, تُرَبِّضُ: in the L, تَرْبُضُ; and thus also the aor. is written in a copy of the A.]2 رَبَّضَ see 4. b2: رَبَّضْتُهُ بِالمَكَانِ, inf. n. تَرْبِيضٌ, (assumed tropical:) I fixed him, or made him to remain fixed, in the place. (TA.) b3: ربّض السِّقَآءَ بِالمَآءِ, (TA,) inf. n. as above, (K, TA,) [He made the skin to cleave to the ground with water; i. e.] he put into the skin as much water as covered and concealed its bottom: (K, * TA:) mentioned by Sgh, from Ibn- 'Abbád. (TA.) 4 اربض He made a sheep, or goat, [&c., (see 1,)] to lie down upon his breast; (S, K;) as also ↓ ربّض, inf. n. تَرْبِيضٌ. (TA.) b2: أَرْبَضَهُمْ (tropical:) It (a vessel, S, A, K, and beverage, or wine, A, TA) satisfied their thirst so that they became heavy, and slept, stretched upon the ground: (S, * A, * K:) (tropical:) it (milk) satiated them. (TA.) b3: اربضت الشَّمْسُ (tropical:) The sun became vehemently hot, (S, A, K,) so as to make the gazelle and the sheep or goat, (S,) or the wild animals, (A,) to lie down upon their breasts: (S, A:) or became still, like a beast lying upon its breast, having attained its utmost height and not begun to descend. (O.) b4: اربض أَهْلَهُ, (O, K,) and أَصْحَابَهُ, (O,) (assumed tropical:) He undertook, or managed, the expenses of his family, (O, K,) and of his companions; (O;) syn. قَامَ بنَفَقَتِهِمْ: (O, K:) so says Ibn- 'Abbád. (TA.) رَبْضٌ: see رَبَضٌ.

رُبْضٌ: see رَبَضٌ, in five places. b2: Also, accord. to Ks, (S,) and As, (Sgh, TA,) The middle of a thing: (S, Sgh, K:) but this is disapproved by Sh.

رَبَضٌ The lodging-place of sheep or goats; (S, A, * K;) because they lie therein upon their breasts; and in like manner of wild animals: (TA:) the nightly lodging-place of sheep or goats: (Msb:) and ↓ مَرْبِضٌ signifies the same: (S, * A, Mgh, Msb:) pl. of the former أَرْبَاضٌ: (S, A, * TA:) and of the latter مَرَابِضُ: (S, K: *) the مرابض of sheep or goats are like the مَعَاطِن of camels. (S.) b2: (tropical:) A place of abode: a place of abode of a people by itself: (A, TA:) pl. as above. (A.) b3: (tropical:) Anything to which a man betakes himself, or repairs, for lodging, covert, or refuge, (ISk, S, A, * Msb, K,) and at which, or with which, he finds rest, or ease; (K;) such as a house or tent, (S, A, K,) and the like, (S, K,) and a wife, (ISk, S, A, Msb,) or relations, (ISk, A, Msb,) or a family, and a relation, and property, (K,) and sheep or goats, and means of subsistence, and food; (TA;) and hence, (S,) milk which sustains a man, and suffices him for food: (S, K: *) pl. as above: (K:) رَبَضٌ and ↓ رَبْضٌ and ↓ رُبْضٌ (IAar, Sgh, K) and ↓ رُبُضٌ (K) are applied to a wife لِأَنَّهَا تَرْبِضُ زَوْجَهَا, (so in copies of the K and in the TA, but in the CK تُرَبِّضُ,) i. e. because she undertakes, or manages, the affairs of her husband, and gives him lodging, or refuge; (TA;) or because she fixes him, (تُرَبِّضُهُ, i. e. تُثَبِّتُهُ,) so that he does not quit his place: (L, TA:) or to the mother; or the sister; who undertakes, or manages, the affairs of (تُعَزِّبُ [so in copies of the K and in the TA, in the latter of which it is thus explained, but in the CK تُقَرِّبُ,]) her relation. (K.) A poet says, جَآءَ الشِّتَآءُ وَلَمَّا أَتَّخِذْ رَبَضًا يَا وَيْحَ كَفَّىَّ مِنْ حَفْرِ القَرَامِيصِ (S, Mgh) i. e. [The winter has come, and I have not yet made for myself] a lodging: [O, wo to my two-hands, in consequence of digging] hollows in which to sit for protection from the cold. (Mgh.) And from رَبَضٌ applied to “ milk which sustains a man, and suffices him for food,” originated the prov., (K, TA,) مِنْكَ رَبَضُكَ وَإِنْ كَانَ سَمَارًا, meaning (tropical:) Thy family and thy servants (S, K) and those to whom thou betakest thyself for lodging or refuge, (S,) are appertenances of thine, though they be persons falling short [of their duty]: (S, K:) or thy manager of affairs, &c., though he be not a good manager of thine affairs: (L, TA:) and رَبَضٌ also signifies any woman who undertakes, or manages, the affairs of a house: but in the T we find ↓ رُبْضُكَ, thus written, as by Th, on the authority of IAar, but not restricted by a measure, and explained as meaning the person who undertakes, or manages, the affairs of thy house; and so in the book of proverbs by As: and in the margin of a copy of the S, we find the above-cited prov. thus written, وَإِنْ كَانَ سَمَارًا ↓ مِنْكَ رُبُضُكَ, as from the “ Book on Goats ” by Ibn-Zeyd, and expl. as meaning the sons of thy father are appertenances of thine, though they be evil persons, in whom is no good. (TA.) b4: (tropical:) The wall of a city: (K, TA:) the environs of a city, (S, A, Mgh,) and of a قَصْر [or palace &c.], (A,) consisting of houses or dwellings, (A, Mgh,) or of open country: (TA:) and ↓ رُبْضٌ signifies the same: (TA:) or this latter signifies the foundation, or basis, of a building; and of a city also: (K:) IKh writes it ↓ رُبُضٌ: and some say that ↓ رُبْضٌ and رَبَضٌ signify the same: (TA:) the former of these two signifies also the part, of a thing, that touches the ground: (K, TA:) so says Sh: accord. to ISh, الأَرْضِ ↓ رُبْضُ signifies what touches the ground, of a thing: (TA:) and رَبَضٌ also signifies a lateral, or an outward or adjacent, part: (K:) or lateral, or outward or adjacent, parts of a thing: (Ks, S:) also the space immediately pertaining to a mosque: and [the pl.]

أَرْبَاضٌ is explained by El-Karkhee as applied to the quarters, or districts, of a town, or city. (Mgh.) b5: رَبَضٌ also signifies (tropical:) The rope of the [camel's saddle called] رَحْل, (A, K,) with which the رحل is bound; (A, TA;) one of the أَرْبَاض, or ropes of the رَحْل: (S, A:) or the part that is next the ground thereof; (K;) i. e., of the rope of the رحل; (TA;) not what is above the رحل: (K:) accord. to Lth, the part [of the belly] of the camel that is next the ground when he lies down; (L, TA; *) and the belly of the she-camel; and in like manner IAar explains the pl. أَرْبَاضٌ as meaning the bellies of camels; but Az says that this is a mistake. (TA.) And (assumed tropical:) A girth of a رَحْل, like the نِطَاق [q. v.], which is put upon the flanks of the she-camel, so as to have the haunches behind it, (K, TA,) on either side, having at its two ends two rings, to which are tied the [woven, or plaited, thongs called] أَنْسَاع: the رحل is bound with it.

(assumed tropical:) The part that comprises the حَوَايَا [or winding, circling, or coiled, guts or intestines]; (IAar, TA;) as also ↓ رَبِيضٌ and ↓ مَرْبِضٌ and ↓ مَرْبَضٌ: (IAar, K, TA:) some describe the رَبَض as below the navel; and the ↓ مَرْبَض, as beneath the navel and above the pubes. (TA.) رُبُضٌ [(tropical:) Holding back, through indolence].

رُبُضٌ عَنِ الحَاجَاتِ, (A, K,) in [some of] the copies of the K, erroneously, عَلَى الحاجات, (TA,) and الأَسْفَارِ, (A, TA,) means (tropical:) A man who does not rise to perform needful affairs, (A, K,) and journeys: (A, TA:) or who does not go forth to undertake them.

رُبْضَةٌ, applied to a man, i q. ↓ مُتَرَبِّضٌ; (K;) i. e. (tropical:) Remaining stationary, and impotent; (TA;) as also ↓ رُبَضَةٌ. (K.)

[See again رَبَضٌ, first signification.]) b3: See also رَبِيضٌ, in three places. b4: Also (assumed tropical:) A place of slaughter (مَقْتَل) of any party, or company of men, slain in one plot of ground: (Lth, Sgh, K:) erroneously written by Sgh in the TS رَبَضَة; but in the O correctly.

A2: Also The body [of an animal] when lying upon the breast; particularly, of a hare, (A, K,) and of a lamb, (A, TA,) and of a she-goat; and so ↓ رُبْضَةٌ. (TA.) Hence the saying, أَتَانَا بِثَرِيدٍ كَأَنَّهُ رِبْضَةُ أَرْنَبٍ [He brought us crumbled bread moistened with broth resembling in size and shape the body of a hare lying upon its breast]. (A, K. *) دَابَّةٌ ضَخْمَةُ الرَّبَضَةِ A beast of which the traces of the place where it has been tied [and app. where it has lain] are large, or wide. (TA.) رُبَضَةٌ: see رُبْضَةٌ.

(K.) b4: Applied to a chain (سِلْسِلَة), (tropical:) Large, or big, (S, K, TA,) and heavy, cleaving to him upon whom it is put: it is of a measure having an intensive signification, and qualifying alike a masc. and a fem. n.

[of رَابِضٌ] is رُبَّضٌ and رُبُوضٌ: and the phrase الغَنَمِ ↓ كَرَبِيضَةِ, occurring in a trad., means كَالغَنَمِ الرُّبَّضِ [Like the sheep, or goats, that are lying upon their breasts]. (TA.) It is said in a prov., كَلْبٌ جَوَّالٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ

أَسَدٍ رَابِضٍ or رَبَضَ [A dog that roams about is better than a lion lying upon his breast or that has laid himself down upon his breast].

Rouse not ye against you the two [peoples] that are remaining quiet as long as they do not pursue you: it is like another trad., in which it is said, اُتْرُكُوا التُّرْكَ مَا تَرَكُوكُمْ وَدَعُوا الحَبَشَةَ مَا وَدَعُوكُمْ [Leave ye alone the Turks as long as they leave you alone, and let ye alone the Abyssinians as long as they let you alone]. (TA.) رَابِضَةٌ [as a subst. from رَابِضٌ, made so by the affix ة, An animal lying upon its breast]. One says of a man who kills when he shoots, and more commonly of him who kills when he smites with the [evil] eye, فُلَانٌ مَا تَقُومُ رَابِضَتُهُ [Such a one is so effective in his aim that his animal lying upon its breast does not rise]: (ISk, S, TA:) and in like manner, مَا تَقُومُ لَهُ رَابِضَةٌ: it is a prov. (TA.) b2: It is said in a trad., فَانْبَعَثَ لَهُ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الرَّابِضَةِ [And there rose and went to him one of the رَابضة]: (Lth, A, TA:) الرَّابِضَةُ means (tropical:) certain angels who were sent down [from Paradise] with Adam, (Lth, A, K, TA,) who direct those that err from the right way: (Lth, A, TA:) perhaps (Lth, TA) so called from their remaining upon the earth: (Lth, * A, TA: *) and [so in the K, but correctly “ or,”] the remainder of the Bearers of Evidence (حَمَلَةِ الحُجَّةِ [meaning those angels whereof every individual of mankind has two appointed to attend him constantly for the purpose of their bearing evidence of his good and evil deeds, which two are termed in the Kur l. 16 المُتَلَقِّيَانِ,]) whereof the earth will never be destitute. (S, K.) b3: And in another trad., respecting the signs of the coming of the resurrection, the Prophet is related to have said that one of those signs will be, that the ↓ رُوَيْبِضَة will speak respecting the affairs of the community: (T, TA:) الرُّوَيْبِضَةُ is the dim. of الرَّابِضَةُ (T, K, TA) signifying The pastor of رَبِيض [q. v.]; (T, TA;) and means (assumed tropical:) the mean, contemptible man, (S, K,) who speaks respecting the affairs of the community: thus expl. by the Prophet himself: (K: [in the CK, النّاقِهُ is erroneously put for التَّافِهُ:]) or he explained it as meaning (assumed tropical:) the vitious, or wicked, who speaks respecting the affairs of the community: A 'Obeyd compares this trad. with another, in which it is said that one of the signs above mentioned will be, that the pastors of sheep or goats will be the heads of the people: and Az says that الرويبضة means the pastor of sheep or goats: some say that it means (assumed tropical:) he who abstains, or holds back, from seeking the means of acquiring eminence, or nobility; and الرَّابِضَةُ signifies [the same, or] impotent to attain eminence: in this latter, the ة is added to give intensiveness to the signification: and Az thinks it most probable that each of these is applied to the mean man because of his remaining in his house, or tent, and seldom rising and going forth to occupy himself in great affairs. (TA.) رُوَيْبِضَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

تِرْبَاضٌ i. q. عُصْفُرٌ [Safflower, or bastard saffron]. (IAar, K.) مَرْبَضٌ: see رَبَضٌ, last sentence, in two places.

مَرْبِضٌ: see رَبَضٌ, first sentence: b2: and the same in the last sentence.

رجع: حين يعود المؤلف إلى الموضوع بعد أن استطرد في كلام خرج به عن الموضوع فإنه يكتب: رجع الحديث، رجع الخبر إلى غير ذلك. وقد كتب كوسكارتن في طبعته لكتاب الأغاني (ص22): رَجَعَ الخَبَرُ. غير أن الشيخ الطنطاوي في تعليقه على هذه العبارة (أنظر ص261 من التعليقات) يرى أن يكتب: رَجْعُ الخَبَرِ. وهذا في الحقيقة صواب، ومع ذلك فإني أجرأ على التأكيد أن الأول صواب أيضاً. ومما يؤيد هذا أننا نجد في المخطوطة النفيسة لابن عبد الملك (ص2 ق) بعد استطراد: رَجَع مضبوطة بهذا الشكل ومعها صح.
ونجد عند ابن الخطيب (ص69 ق) بعد استطراد: عادَ الحديثُ. وهذا يجعل استعمال الفعل الماضي أمراً لاشك فيه. وقارن هذا بما جاء في أخبار (ص67): ورَجَع هاهُنا شيءٌ من حديث عبد الرحمن بن معاوية. وفيه: ثُمَّ رَجَعَ الحديثُ إلى خروجهم (وحذف من كلمة الحديث. وهي موجودة في المخطوطة، خطأ من الناشر).
ويستعملون اليوم الفعل المضارع فيقولون: يرجع الكلام إلى القاضي، وفي بسام (ص66): يرجع مرجوعنا إلى (زيشر 22: 81).

1 رَجَعَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. رُجُوعٌ (S, Msb, K, &c.) and رَجْعٌ, (M, Msb,) but the former is that which commonly obtains and is agreeable with analogy as inf. n. of the intrans. v., and the latter as inf. n. of the trans. v., (MF, TA,) and مَرْجَعٌ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) which is anomalous, because inf. ns. [of this kind] of verbs of the measure فَعَلَ having the aor. of the measure يَفْعِلُ are [by rule] only with fet-h [to the medial radical], (S, K,) and مَرْجِعَةٌ, which is in like manner anomalous, (K,) and رُجْعَى, (S, Msb, K,) [not رُجْعًى as in the Lexicons of Golius and Freytag,] and رُجْعَانٌ, (K,) He returned; he went, or came, back [to the same place, or person, or (assumed tropical:) state, or (assumed tropical:) occupation, or (assumed tropical:) action, or (assumed tropical:) saying, &c.]; he reverted; contr. of ذَهَبَ; (ISk, Msb;) i. q. انْصَرَفَ: (K:) رُجُوعٌ signifies the returning to a former place, or (assumed tropical:) quality, or (assumed tropical:) state; (Kull p. 196;) the returning to that from which was the commencement, or from which the commencement is supposed to have been, whether it be a place, or (assumed tropical:) an action, or (assumed tropical:) a saying, and whether the returning be by the [whole] person or thing, or by a part thereof, or by an action thereof. (Er-Rághib.) Hence the saying in the Kur [lxiii. 8], لَئِنْ رَجَعْنَا إِلَى المَدِينَةِ [Verily if we return to the city]. (Er-Rághib.) And [in the same, xii. 63,] فَلَمَّا رَجَعُوا إِلَى أَبِيهِمْ [And when they returned to their father]. (Idem.) And in the same, [vi. 164, and xxxix.

9,] ثُمَّ إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ مَرْجِعُكُمْ [Then unto your Lord shall be your return]: (S:) the like of which occurs in the same, vi. 60: but it may be either from [the intrans. inf. n.] رُجُوعٌ or from [the trans.] رَجْعٌ: (Er-Rághib:) it cannot be a n. of place, because it is made trans. by means of إِلَى, and also because it occurs in the Kur [v. 53, &c.], followed by جَمِيعًا, as a denotative of state: (L:) in like manner الرُّجْعَى also occurs in the Kur xcvi. 8. (TA.) You say also, رَجَعَتِ المَرْأَةُ إِلَى

أَهْلِهَا The woman returned to her family by reason of the death of her husband or by reason of divorcement. (Msb.) b2: رَجَعَ إِلَى الصِّحَّةِ (assumed tropical:) [He returned to soundness, or health], or المَرَضِ [disease, or sickness]; and إِلَى حَالَةِ الفَقْرِ (assumed tropical:) [to the state of poverty], or الغِنَى (assumed tropical:) [wealth, or competence, or sufficiency].

(Er-Rághib.) b8: [Several other phrases, in which this verb occurs, will be found in other arts.: as رَجَعَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ in art. ظهر: رَجَعْتُ القَهْقَرَى in art. قهقر: رَجَعَ دَرَجَهُ, and variations thereof, in art. درج: &c.] b9: رَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ [sometimes signifies the same as رَجَعَ عَلَيْهِ] He returned against him; he returned to attack him.

(Msb, TA.) and مِنْهُ الشَّىْء ↓ استرجع (assumed tropical:) He took back from him the thing which he had given to him. (S, K.) b16: [Hence also, رَجَعَ فِى قَوْلِهِ, and فِى حُكْمِهِ (assumed tropical:) He retracted, or revoked, his saying, and his judgment, or sentence.] b17: هُوَ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى مَنْصِبِ صِدْقٍ (assumed tropical:) He traces back his lineage to an excellent origin. (TA in art. نصب.) b18: [يَرْجِعُ إِلَى مَعْنَى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) It (a word used in a certain sense) is referrible, or reducible, to such a meaning. And يُرْجِعُ إِلَى كَذَا, said of a word, also means (assumed tropical:) It relates to such a thing; i. e., to such another word, in grammatical construction.] b19: رَجَعَ إِلَى قَدْرِ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) It (wine when cooked) became reduced to such a quantity; syn. آلَ. (S in art. اول.) b20: رَجَعَ الحَوْضُ إِلَى إِزَائِهِ The water of the trough, or tank, became much in quantity [so that it returned to the height of the place whence it poured in]. (TA.) b21: ↓ رِجَاعٌ, also, is an inf. n. of this verb, (L,) and is used as signifying The returning of birds after their migrating to a hot country. (S, L, K.) You say, رَجَعَتِ الطَّيْرُ القَوَاطِعُ, inf. n. رِجَاعٌ and رَجْعٌ, The migratory birds returned. (L.) b22: Also inf. n. of رَجَعَتْ said of a-she camel, and of a she-ass, signifying (assumed tropical:) She raised her tail, and compressed her two sides (قُطْرَيْهَا), and cast forth her urine in repeated discharges, so that she was imagined to be pregnant, (S, K,) and then failed of fulfilling her [apparent] promise: (S: [in some copies of which, as is said in the TA, the inf. n. of the verb in this sense is written رُجُوع:]) or she conceived, and then failed of fulfilling her promise; because she who does so goes back from what is hoped of her: (TA:) or, said of a she-camel, she cast forth her fœtus in an imperfect state: (Az, TA,) or, as some say, her embryo in a fluid state: (TA:) or in an unformed state; inf. n. رِجَاعٌ. (Msb in art. خدج.) [See also رَاجِعٌ, below.]

A2: , (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Mgh,) inf. n. رَجْعٌ and مَرْجَعٌ and مَرْجِعٌ, (K,) He made, or caused, him, or it, to return, go back, come back, or revert; sent back, turned back, or returned, him, or it; syn. رَدَّهُ; (Mgh, Msb, K;) and صَرَفَهُ; (K;) عَنِ الشَّىْءِ from the thing; and إِلَيْهِ to it; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ ارجعهُ; (S, Msb, K;) but the former is the more chaste word, and is that which is used in the Kur-án, in ix. 84 [and other places]: (Msb:) the latter is of the dial. of Hudheyl; (S, Msb;) and is said by MF to be of weak authority, and bad; but [SM says,] I do not find this asserted by any of the leading authorities: (TA:) ↓ ارتجعهُ, also, signifies [the same, i. e.] the same as رَدَّهُ in like manner followed by إِلَى. (TA.) Thus in the Kur ix. 84, referred to above, فَإِنْ رَجَعَكَ اللّٰهُ [And if God make thee to return, or restore thee]. (Msb.) b2: رَجَعَ فُلَانٌ عَلِى أَنْفِ بَعِيِرهِ Such a one put back, or restored, the nose-rein [الخِطَامَ being understood] upon the nose of his camel; it having become displaced.

إِلَى بَعْضٍ القَوْلَ, in the Kur [xxxiv. 30], means (assumed tropical:) Holding a colloquy, or a disputation, or debate, one with another: (Bd:) [or it means (assumed tropical:) rebutting one another's sayings:] or (assumed tropical:) blaming one another.

(TA.) It is said in a trad. إِنَّ اللّٰهَ وِتْرٌ يُحِبُّ الوِتْرَ فَأَوْتِرُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْقُرْآنِ [Verily God is one only: He loveth the odd number: therefore perform ye the prayer of an odd number of rek'ahs, O people of the Kur-án]. (T.) And in another trad., إِذَا اسْتَجْمَرْتَ فَأَوْتِرْ When thou employest stones in the purification termed إِسْتِنْجَآء, use an odd number; (TA;) i. e. use three stones for that purpose, or five, or seven, and not an even number.

(TA.)

(M.) It is said in a proverb, إِنْبَاضٌ بِغَيْرِ تَوْتِيرٍ [Twanging the bow without bracing the string]: (S:) or لَا تُعْجِلِ الإِنْبَاضَ قَبْلَ التَّوْتِيرِ [Hasten not the twanging of the bow before the bracing of the string]: alluding to the hastening a thing before its proper time.

(T.) Yousay also وَاتر بَيْنَ مِيَرِهِمْ He made their supplies of wheat to come to them without stopping; time after time. (TA, from a trad.) And it is said in a trad., لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يُوَاتِرَ قَضَآءَ رَمَضَانَ There will be no harm in his performing the fast of Ramadán at intervals, fasting one day and breaking fast one day: (TA:) مُوَاتَرَةُ الصَّوْمِ is the fasting one day and breaking fast one day, or two; performing it separately: it does not mean المُوَاصَلَةُ, because it is from الوِتْرُ, (S, K, TA,) i. e., الفَرْدُ.
