TA [in the

M,
K,) (
tropical:) He made close [or he refreshed] his ties of relationship by behaving with goodness and affection and gentleness to his kindred;
syn. وَصَلَهَا, (
T,
S,
M,
K,) and نَدَّاهَا: (
T:) for, as some things are conjoined and commixed by moisture, and become disunited by dryness, بَلٌّ is metaphorically used to denote
conjunction, as above, and يُبْسٌ to denote the contrary. (
TA.) A poet says, وَالرِّحْمَ فابْلُلْهَا بِخَيْرِ البُلَّانْ فَإِنَهَااشْتُقَّتْ مِنِ اسْمِ الرَّحْمٰنْ [(
tropical:) And the ties of relationship, make thou them close &c. by the best mode, or modes, of doing so; for the name thereof is derived from the name of the Compassionate]: here ↓البُلَّان may be a noun in the
sing. number, like غُفْرَانٌ, or it may be
pl. of بَلَلٌ, which may be either a
subst. or an.
inf. n., for some
inf. ns. have pls., as شُغْلٌ and عَقْلٌ and مَرَضٌ. (
M.) And it is said in a
trad., بُلُّوا أَرْحَامَكُمْ وَلَوْ بِالسَّلَامِ (
tropical:) Make ye close [or refresh ye] your ties of relationship &c., though but, or if only, by salutation;
syn. صِلُوهَا, (
M,) or نَدُّوهَا بِالصِّلَةِ. (
S.) And hence the saying in another
trad., إِذَ اسْتَشَنَّ مَا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ اللّٰهِ فَابْلُلْهُ بِالإِحْسَانِ إِلَى عِبَادَهِ (

S,
M,
K,) and ابْنًا, (
M,

tropical:) May God give thee a son. (
S,
M,
K,
TA.) Hence, perhaps, the phrase, بُلَّتْ يَدَاكَ بِهِ as meaning (assumed
tropical:) Thou was given it. (
Har p. 479.) You say also, بَلَلْتُهُ, meaning (assumed
tropical:) I gave to him. (
T.) And ↓ لَا تَبْلُكَ عِنْدِى بَالَّةٌ, and ↓ بَلَالٌ, (
T,

b2: تَـ
ـبَلْبَلَــتِ الأَلْسُنُ The tongues, or languages, became mixed, or confounded. (

A2: تَـ
ـبَلْبَلَــتِ الإِبِلُ الكَلَأَ The camels went on seeking the herbage, or pasture, and left not of it aught. (
S,
K.) بَلْ is a
particle of digression: (
Mughnee,
K:) or,
accord. to
Mbr, it denotes emendation, wherever it occurs, in the case of a negation or an affirmation: (
T,
TA:) or it is a word of emendation, and denoting digression from that which precedes; as also بَنْ, in which the ن is a substitute for the ل, because بل is of frequent occurrence, and بن is rare; or, as
IJ says, the latter may be an independent
dial. var. (
M.) When it is followed by a proposition, the meaning of the digression is either the cancelling of what precedes, as in وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَدًا سُبْحَانَهُ بَلْ عِبَادٌ مُكْرَمُونَ [And they said, “The Compassionate hath gotten offspring: ” extolled be his freedom from that which is derogatory from his glory! nay, or nay rather, or nay but, they are honoured servants (
Kur xxi. 26)], or transition from one object of discourse to another, as in قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَنْ تَزَكَّى وَ ذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّى
بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا [He hath attained felicity who hath purified himself, and celebrated the name of his Lord, and prayed: but ye prefer the present life (
Kur lxxxvii. 14-16)]: (
Mughnee,
K: *) and in all such cases it is an inceptive
particle; not a conjunctive. (
Mughnee.) When it is followed by a single word, it is a
conjunction, (
S, *
Msb, *
Mughnee,
K,) and requires that word to be in the same case as the word before it: (
S:) and if preceded by a command or an affirmation, (
Mughnee,
K,) as in اِضْرَبْ زَيْدًا بَلْ عَمْرًا [Beat thou Zeyd: no, 'Amr], (
Msb,
Mughnee,
K,) and قَامَ زَيْدٌ بَلْ عَمْرٌو [Zeyd stood: no, 'Amr], (
M,
Mughnee,
K,) or جَآءَنِى أَخُوكَ بَلْ أَبُوكَ [Thy brother came to me: no, thy father], (
S,) it makes what precedes it to be as though nothing were said respecting it, (
S, *
Msb, *
Mughnee,
K,) making the command or affirmation to relate to what follows it: (
S, *
Msb, *
Mughnee:) [and similar to these cases is the case in which it is preceded by an interrogation: see أَمْ as
syn. with this
particle:] but when it is preceded by a negation or a prohibition, it is used to confirm the meaning of what precedes it and to assign the contrary of that meaning to what follows it, (
Mughnee,
K,) as in مَا قَامَ زَيْدٌ عَمْرٌو [Zeyd stood not, but 'Amr stood], (
Mughnee,) or مَا رَأَيْتُ زَيْدًا بَلْ عَمْرًا, [I saw not Zeyd, but I saw 'Amr], (
S,) and لَا يَقُمْ زَيْدٌ بَلْ عَمْرٌو [Let not Zeyd stand, but let 'Amr stand]. (
Mughnee.)
Mbr and 'Abd-El-
Wárith allow its being used to transfer the meaning of the negation and the prohibition to what follows it; so that,
accord. to them, one may say, مَازَيْدٌ قَائِمًا بَلْ قَاعِدًا [as meaning Zeyd is not standing: no, is not sitting], and بَلْ قَاعِدٌ [but is sitting]; the meaning being different [in the two cases]. (
Mughnee,
K. *) The Koofees disallow its being used as a
conjunction after anything but a negation [so in the
Mughnee, but in the
K a prohibition,] or the like thereof; so that one should not say, ضَرَبْتُ زَيْدًا بَلْ إِيَّاكَ [I beat Zeyd: no, thee]. (
Mughnee,
K.) Sometimes لَا is added before it, to corroborate the meaning of digression, after an affirmation, as in the saying, وَجْهُكَ البَدْرُ لَا بَلِ الشَّمْسُ لَوْ لَمْ يُقْضَ لِلشَّمْسِ كَسْفَةٌ وَ أُفُولُ [Thy face is the full moon: no, but it would be the sun, were it not that eclipse and setting are appointed to happen to the sun]: and to corroborate what precedes it, after a negation, as in وَ مَا هَجَرْتُكَ لَا بَلْ زَادَنِى شَغَفًا هَجْرٌ وَ بَعْدٌ تَرَاخَى لَا إِلَى أَجَلِ [And I did not abandon thee, or have not abandoned thee: no, but abandonment and distance, protracted, not to an appointed period, increased, or have increased, my heart-felt love]. (
Mughnee,
K. *)
b2: Sometimes it is used to denote the passing from one subject to another without cancelling [what precedes it], and is
syn. with وَ, as in the saying in the
Kur [lxxxv. 20 and 21], وَاللّٰهُ مِنْ, وَ رَائِهِمْ مُحِيطٌ بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَجِيدٌ [And God from behind them is encompassing: and it is a glorious
Kur-án: or here it may mean إِنَّ, as in an
ex. below]: and to this meaning it is made to accord in the saying, لَهُ عَلَىَّ دِينَارٌ بَلْ دِرْهَمٌ [I owe him a deenár and a dirhem]. (
Msb.)
b3: In the fol-lowing saying in the
Kur [xxxviii. 1],وَالْقُرْآنِ ذِى
الذِّكْرِبَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِى عِزَّةٍ وَشِقَاقٍ, it is said to signify إِنَّ; [so that the meaning is, By the
Kur-án possessed of eminence, verily they who have disbelieved are in a state of pride and opposition;] therefore the oath applies to it. (
Akh,
S.)
b4: Sometimes the Arabs use it in breaking off a saying and commencing another; and thus a man commences with it a citation, or recitation, of verse; in which case, it does not form any part of the first verse, but is a sign of the breaking off, or ending, of what precedes. (
Akh,
S.)
b5: Sometimes it is put in the place of رُبَّ, (
S,
Mughnee,) as in the saying of the rájiz, بَلْ مَهْمَهٍ قَطَعْتُ بَعْدَ مَهْمَهٍ
[Many a far-extending desert have I traversed, after a far-extending desert]. (
S: [and a similar
ex. is given in the
Mughnee.])
b6: What is deficient in this word [supposing it to be originally of three letters] is unknown; and so in the cases of هَلْ and قَدْ: it may be a final و or ى or they may be originally بَلّ and هَلّ and قَدّ. (
Akh,
S.) بَلٌّ Moist, or containing moisture: or rather moistened; being,
app., an
inf. n. used in the sense of a
pass. part. n. ; like خَلْقٌ in the sense of مَخْلُوقٌ. Hence,] رِيحٌ بَلَّةٌ and ↓بَلِيلٌ and ↓بَلِيلَةٌ A wind in which is moisture: (
S:) or the last, a wind mixed with feeble rain: (
T:) and the second, a wind cold with moisture; (
M,
K;) or the same, a wind cold with rain; (
A,
TA;) the north wind, as though it sprinkled water by reason of its coldness: (
TA:) and ↓ بَلَلٌ also signifies a cold north wind: (Ibn-'Abbád,
TA:) بَلِيلٌ is used alike as
sing. and
pl. : (
K:) it has no
pl. (
M.)
A2: بَلٌّ بِشَىْءٍ A man (
M) devoted, or attached, to a thing, and keeping to it constantly. (
M,
K. [In the
CK and in my
MS. copy of the
K, اللَّهْجُ is erroneously put for اللَّهِجُ.])
b2: And بَلٌّ, alone, Much given to the deferring of payment to his creditors, by repeated promises; (
T;) withholding, by swearing, what he possesses of things that are the rightful property of others. (
IAar,
T,
K.) See also أَبَلٌّ, in two places.
بِلٌّ Allowable, or lawful; i. e., to be taken, or let alone, or done, or made use of, or possessed: (
T,
S,
M,
K:) so in the
dial. of Himyer: (
T,
S.
M:) or a remedy; (
A'Obeyd,
T,
S,
M,
K;) from the phrase بَلَّ مِنْ مَرَضِهِ [
q. v.]: (A' Obeyd,
T,
S,
M:) or it is an
imitative sequent to حِلٌّ, (
M,
K,) as some say: (
M:) so
As thought until he heard that it was said to be of the
dial. of Himyer in the first of the senses explained above: (
S,
M:)
A'Obeyd and
ISk say that it may not be so because it is conjoined with حِلٌّ by وَ: (
T:) and
A'Obeyd says, We have seldom found an
imitative sequent conjoined by و. (
TA.) Hence the phrase, هُوَ لَكَ حِلٌّ وَبِلٌّ It is to thee lawful and allowable: or lawful and a remedy. (
M,
K. *) And hence the saying of El-'Abbás the son of 'Abd-El-Muttalib, respecting [the well of] Zemzem, هِىَ لِشَارِبٍ حِلٌّ وَ بِلٌّ It is to a drinker lawful &c. (
T,
S,
M.) بَلَّةٌ [A single act of moistening.
b2: And hence,] The least sprinkling (أَدْنَى بَلَلٍ
lit. the least moisture) of good. (
TA in art. هل.) You say, جَآءَنَا فُلَانٌ فَلَمْ يَأْتِنَا بِهَلَّةٍ وَلَا بَلَّةٍ [Such a one came to us and did not bring us anything to rejoice us nor the least sprinkling of good]: هلّة,
accord. to ISK, being from الفَرَحُ and الاِسْتِهْلَالُ, and بلّة from البَلْلُ and الخَيْرُ. (
S.) And مَا أَصَابَ هَلَّةً
وَلَا بَلَّةً He did not obtain, or has not obtained, anything. (
S.)

M;) and [so in the
M, but in the

T,
M,
A,
K,) and its regular and uniform continuance of speech, (
T,
M,
K,) and its facility. (
K.) You say, مَا أَحْسَنٌ بِلَّةَ لِسَانِهِ (
tropical:) [How good is the fluency, &c., of his tongue!]. (

S,
M,
K) and ↓ بِلَالٌ and ↓ بُلَالَةٌ (
M,
K) [and several other
dial. vars. occurring in phrases in this paragraph]: or ↓ بِلَّةٌ signifies an inferior, or inconsiderable, degree of moisture; (
Lth,
T,
K; [an ambiguity in the
K in this place has occasioned several mistakes in Freytag's Lex.
voce بَلَلٌ;]) and ↓ بِلَالٌ is an
anomalous pl. of this word; (
M,
TA;) and is
pl. also of ↓ بُلَّةٌ: (
S,
TA:) and بُلَّانٌ, occurring in a verse cited above (see 1) may be
pl. of بَلَلٌ. (
M.) [Using syns. of بَلَلٌ in the sense explained above,] you say, طَوَيْتُ
↓ السِّقَآءَ عَلَى بُلُلَتِهِ, (
S,
K,) and ↓ بُلَلَتِهِ, (
