البِطاحُ:
بكسر أوله، جمع بطحاء: وهي بطاح مكة، ويقال لقريش الداخلة البطاح، وقال ابن الأعرابي: قريش البطاح الذين ينزلون الشعب بين أخشبي مكة، وقريش الظواهر: الذين ينزلون خارج الشعب، وأكرمهما قريش البطاح، والبطحاء في اللغة:
مسيل فيه دقاق الحصى، والجمع الأباطح والبطاح، على غير قياس، وقال الزبير بن أبي بكر: قريش البطاح بنو كعب بن لؤي، وقريش الظواهر ما فوق ذلك سكنوا البطحاء والظواهر، وقبائل بني كعب هم:
عدي وجمح وتيم وسهم ومخزوم وأسد وزهرة وعبد مناف وأمية وهاشم، كلّ هؤلاء قريش البطاح، وقريش الظواهر: بنو عامر بن لؤي يخلد بن النضر والحارث ومالك، وقد درجا، والحارث ومحارب ابنا فهر وتيم الأدرم بن غالب بن فهر وقيس بن فهر درج، وإنما سموا بذلك لأن قريشا اقتسموا فأصابت بنو كعب بن لؤي البطحاء وأصابت هؤلاء الظواهر، فهذا تعريف للقبائل لا للمواضع، فإن البطحاويين لو سكنوا بالظواهر كانوا بطحاويين وكذلك الظواهر لو كانوا سكنوا البطحاء كانوا ظواهر، وأشرفهم البطحاويون، وقال أبو خالد ذكوان مولى مالك الدار:
فلو شهدتني من قريش عصابة: ... قريش البطاح لا قريش الظواهر
ولكنهم غابوا وأصبحت شاهدا، ... فقبّحت من مولى حفاظ وناصر
وبلغت معاوية فقال: أنا ابن سداد البطحاء والله إياي نادى، اكتبوا إلى الضحاك أنه لا سبيل لك عليه واكتبوا إلى مالك واشتروا لي ولاءه، فلما جاء الكتاب مالكا سأل عنه عبد الله بن عمر فقال: إن رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، نهى عن بيع الولاء وهبته، وقال أبو الحسن محمد بن عليّ بن نصر
الكاتب قال: سمعت عوّادة تغني في أبيات طريح ابن إسماعيل الثقفي في الوليد بن يزيد بن عبد الملك وكان من أخواله:
أنت ابن مسلنطح البطاح، ولم ... تطرق عليك الحنيّ والولج
الحني: ما انخفض من الأرض. والولج: ما اتسع من الأودية، أي لم تكن بينهما فيخفى حسبك، فقال بعض الحاضرين: ليس غير بطحاء مكة فما معنى هذا الجمع؟ فثار البطحاوي العلوي فقال: بطحاء المدينة وهو أجلّ من بطحاء مكة وجدّي منه، وأنشد له:
وبطحا المدينة لي منزل، ... فيا حبّذا ذاك من منزل
فقال: فهذان بطحاوان فما معنى الجمع؟ قلنا:
العرب تتوسع في كلامها وشعرها فتجعل الاثنين جمعا، وقد قال بعض الناس: ان أقل الجمع اثنان وربما ثنوا الواحد في الشعر وينقلون الألقاب ويغيرونها لتستقيم لهم الأوزان، وهذا أبو تمام يقول في مدحه للواثق:
يسمو بك السّفّاح والمنصور والمأمون والمعصوم
فنقل المعتصم إلى المعصوم حتى استقام له الشعر، وبالأمس قال أبو نصر بن نباتة:
فأقام باللّورين حولا كاملا، ... يترقّب القدر الذي لم يقدر
وما في البلاد إلّا اللّور المعروفة، وهذا كثير، وما زادنا على الصحيح والحزر ولو كان من أهل الجهل لهان ولكنه قد جس الأدب ومسه، ومما يؤكد أنها بطحاوان قول الفرزدق:
وأنت ابن بطحاوي قريش، فإن تشأ ... تكن في ثقيف سيل ذي أدب عفر
قلت أنا: وهذا كله تعسف، وإذا صح بإجماع أهل اللغة أن البطحاء الأرض ذات الحصى، فكل قطعة من تلك الأرض بطحاء، وقد سميت قريش البطحاء وقريش الظواهر في صدر الجاهلية، ولم يكن بالمدينة منهم أحد، وأما قول الفرزدق وابن نباتة فقد قالت العرب: الرقمتان ورامتان، وأمثال ذلك تمر كثيرا في هذا الكتاب، قصدهم بها إقامة الوزن فلا اعتبار به، والله أعلم.

مَكَّةُ:
بيت الله الحرام، قال بطليموس: طولها من جهة المغرب ثمان وسبعون درجة، وعرضها ثلاث وعشرون درجة، وقيل إحدى وعشرون، تحت نقطة السرطان، طالعها الثريّا، بيت حياتها الثور، وهي في الإقليم الثاني، أما اشتقاقها ففيه أقوال، قال أبو بكر بن الأنباري: سميت مكة لأنها تمكّ الجبّارين أي تذهب نخوتهم، ويقال إنما سميت مكة لازدحام الناس بها من قولهم: قد امتكّ الفصيل ضرع أمّه إذا مصه مصّا شديدا، وسميت بكة لازدحام الناس بها، قاله أبو عبيدة وأنشد:
إذا الشريب أخذته أكّه ... فخلّه حتى يبكّ بكّه
ويقال: مكة اسم المدينة وبكة اسم البيت، وقال آخرون: مكة هي بكة والميم بدل من الباء كما قالوا:
ما هذا بضربة لازب ولازم، وقال أبو القاسم: هذا الذي ذكره أبو بكر في مكة وفيها أقوال أخر نذكرها لك، قال الشرقيّ بن القطاميّ: إنما سميت مكة لأن العرب في الجاهلية كانت تقول لا يتم حجّنا حتى نأتي مكان الكعبة فنمكّ فيه أي نصفر صفير المكّاء حول الكعبة، وكانوا يصفرون ويصفقون بأيديهم إذا طافوا بها، والمكّاء، بتشديد الكاف: طائر يأوي الرياض، قال أعرابيّ ورد الحضر فرأى مكّاء يصيح فحنّ إلى بلاده فقال:
ألا أيّها المكّاء ما لك ههنا ... ألاء ولا شيح فأين تبيض
فاصعد إلى أرض المكاكي واجتنب ... قرى الشام لا تصبح وأنت مريض
والمكاء، بتخفيف الكاف والمد: الصفير، فكأنهم كانوا يحكون صوت المكّاء، ولو كان الصفير هو الغرض لم يكن مخفّفا، وقال قوم: سميت مكة لأنها بين جبلين مرتفعين عليها وهي في هبطة بمنزلة المكّوك، والمكوك عربيّ أو معرب قد تكلمت به العرب وجاء في أشعار الفصحاء، قال الأعشى:
والمكاكيّ والصّحاف من الف ... ضّة والضامرات تحت الرحال
قال وأما قولهم: إنما سميت مكة لازدحام الناس فيها من قولهم: قد امتكّ الفصيل ما في ضرع أمه إذا مصّه مصّا شديدا فغلط في التأويل لا يشبّه مص الفصيل الناقة بازدحام الناس وإنما هما قولان: يقال سميت مكة لازدحام الناس فيها، ويقال أيضا: سميت مكة لأنها عبّدت الناس فيها فيأتونها من جميع الأطراف من قولهم: امتكّ الفصيل أخلاف الناقة إذا جذب جميع ما فيها جذبا شديدا فلم يبق فيها شيئا، وهذا قول أهل اللغة، وقال آخرون: سميت مكة لأنها لا يفجر بها أحد إلا بكّت عنقه فكان يصبح وقد التوت عنقه، وقال الشرقيّ: روي أن بكة اسم القرية ومكة مغزى بذي طوى لا يراه أحد ممن مرّ من أهل الشام والعراق واليمن والبصرة وإنما هي أبيات في أسفل ثنية ذي طوى، وقال آخرون: بكة موضع البيت وما حول البيت مكة، قال: وهذه خمسة أقوال في مكة غير ما ذكره ابن الأنباري، وقال عبيد الله الفقير إليه: ووجدت أنا أنها سمّيت مكة من مك الثدي أي مصه لقلة مائها لأنهم كانوا يمتكون الماء أي يستخرجونه، وقيل: إنها تمك الذنوب أي تذهب بها كما يمك الفصيل ضرع أمه فلا يبقي فيه شيئا، وقيل: سميت مكة لأنها تمك من ظلم أي تنقصه، وينشد قول بعضهم:
يا مكة الفاجر مكي مكّا، ... ولا تمكّي مذحجا وعكّا
وروي عن مغيرة بن إبراهيم قال: بكة موضع البيت وموضع القرية مكة، وقيل: إنما سميت بكة لأن الأقدام تبك بعضها بعضا، وعن يحيى بن أبي أنيسة قال: بكة موضع البيت ومكة هو الحرم كله، وقال زيد بن أسلم: بكة الكعبة والمسجد ومكة ذو طوى وهو بطن الوادي الذي ذكره الله تعالى في سورة الفتح، ولها أسماء غير ذلك، وهي: مكة وبكة والنسّاسة وأم رحم وأم القرى ومعاد والحاطمة لأنها تحطم من استخفّ بها، وسمّي البيت العتيق لأنه عتق من الجبابرة، والرأس لأنها مثل رأس الإنسان، والحرم وصلاح والبلد الأمين والعرش والقادس لأنها تقدس من الذنوب أي تطهر، والمقدسة والناسّة والباسّة، بالباء الموحدة، لأنها تبسّ أي تحطم الملحدين وقيل تخرجهم، وكوثى باسم بقعة كانت منزل بني عبد الدار، والمذهب في قول بشر بن أبي خازم:
وما ضمّ جياد المصلّى ومذهب
وسماها الله تعالى أم القرى فقال: لتنذر أم القرى ومن حولها، وسماها الله تعالى البلد الأمين في قوله تعالى: والتين والزيتون وطور سينين وهذا البلد الأمين، وقال تعالى: لا أقسم بهذا البلد وأنت حلّ بهذا البلد، وقال تعالى: وليطّوّفوا بالبيت العتيق، وقال تعالى: جَعَلَ الله الْكَعْبَةَ الْبَيْتَ الْحَرامَ قِياماً لِلنَّاسِ، 5: 97 وقال تعالى على لسان إبراهيم، عليه السّلام:
رَبِّ اجْعَلْ هَذَا الْبَلَدَ آمِناً وَاجْنُبْنِي وَبَنِيَّ أَنْ نَعْبُدَ الْأَصْنامَ، 14: 35 وقال تعالى أيضا على لسان إبراهيم، عليه السلام: رَبَّنا إِنِّي أَسْكَنْتُ من ذُرِّيَّتِي بِوادٍ غَيْرِ ذِي
زَرْعٍ عِنْدَ بَيْتِكَ الْمُحَرَّمِ 14: 37 (الآية) ، ولما خرج رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، من مكة وقف على الحزورة قال: إني لأعلم أنك أحبّ البلاد إليّ وأنك أحب أرض الله إلى الله ولولا أن المشركين أخرجوني منك ما خرجت، وقالت عائشة، رضي الله عنها: لولا الهجرة لسكنت مكة فإني لم أر السماء بمكان أقرب إلى الأرض منها بمكة ولم يطمئن قلبي ببلد قط ما اطمأن بمكة ولم أر القمر بمكان أحسن منه بمكة، وقال ابن أم مكتوم وهو آخذ بزمام ناقة رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، وهو يطوف:
يا حبّذا مكة من وادي، ... أرض بها أهلي وعوّادي
أرض بها ترسخ أوتادي، ... أرض بها أمشي بلا هادي
ولما قدم رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، المدينة هو وأبو بكر وبلال فكان أبو بكر إذا أخذته الحمّى يقول:
كلّ امرئ مصبّح في أهله، ... والموت أدنى من شراك نعله
وكان بلال إذا انقشعت عنه رفع عقيرته وقال:
ألا ليت شعري هل أبيتنّ ليلة ... بفخّ وعندي إذخر وجليل؟
وهل أردن يوما مياه مجنّة، ... وهل يبدون لي شامة وطفيل؟
اللهم العن شيبة بن ربيعة وعتبة بن ربيعة وأمية بن خلف كما أخرجونا من مكة! ووقف رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، عام الفتح على جمرة العقبة وقال:
والله إنك لخير أرض الله وإنك لأحب أرض الله إليّ ولو لم أخرج ما خرجت، إنها لم تحلّ لأحد كان قبلي ولا تحلّ لأحد كان بعدي وما أحلّت لي إلا ساعة من نهار ثم هي حرام لا يعضد شجرها ولا يحتش خلالها ولا تلتقط ضالتها إلا لمنشد، فقال رجل:
يا رسول الله إلا الإذخر فإنه لبيوتنا وقبورنا، فقال، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم: إلا الإذخر، وقال، صلى الله عليه وسلم: من صبر على حرّ مكة ساعة تباعدت عنه جهنم مسيرة مائة عام وتقربت منه الجنة مائتي عام، ووجد على حجر فيها كتاب فيه: أنا الله رب بكة الحرام وضعتها يوم وضعت الشمس والقمر وحففتها بسبعة أملاك حنفاء لا تزال أخشابها مبارك لأهلها في الحمإ والماء، ومن فضائله أنه من دخله كان آمنا ومن أحدث في غيره من البلدان حدثا ثم لجأ إليه فهو آمن إذا دخله فإذا خرج منه أقيمت عليه الحدود، ومن أحدث فيه حدثا أخذ بحدثه، وقوله تعالى: وما كان ربك مهلك القرى حتى يبعث في أمها رسولا، وقوله: لتنذر أم القرى ومن حولها، دليل على فضلها على سائر البلاد، ومن شرفها أنها كانت لقاحا لا تدين لدين الملوك ولم يؤدّ أهلها إتاوة ولا ملكها ملك قط من سائر البلدان، تحج إليها ملوك حمير وكندة وغسان ولخم فيدينون للحمس من قريش ويرون تعظيمهم والاقتداء بآثارهم مفروضا وشرفا عندهم عظيما، وكان أهله آمنين يغزون الناس ولا يغزون ويسبون ولا يسبون ولم تسب قرشيّة قط فتوطأ قهرا ولا يجال عليها السّهام، وقد ذكر عزهم وفضلهم الشعراء فقال بعضهم:
أبوا دين الملوك فهم لقاح ... إذا هيجوا إلى حرب أجابوا
وقال الزّبر قان بن بدر لرجل من بني عوف كان قد هجا أبا جهل وتناول قريشا:
أتدري من هجوت أبا حبيب ... سليل خضارم سكنوا البطاحا
أزاد الركب تذكر أم هشاما ... وبيت الله والبلد اللّقاحا؟
وقال حرب بن أميّة ودعا الحضرميّ إلى نزول مكة وكان الحضرمي قد حالف بني نفاثة وهم حلفاء حرب ابن أميّة وأراد الحضرمي أن ينزل خارجا من الحرم وكان يكنّى أبا مطر فقال حرب:
أبا مطر هلمّ إلى الصلاح ... فيكفيك الندامى من قريش
وتنزل بلدة عزّت قديما، ... وتأمن أن يزورك ربّ جيش
فتأمن وسطهم وتعيش فيهم، ... أبا مطر هديت، بخير عيش
ألا ترى كيف يؤمّنه إذا كان بمكة؟ ومما زاد في فضلها وفضل أهلها ومباينتهم العرب أنهم كانوا حلفاء متألفين ومتمسكين بكثير من شريعة إبراهيم، عليه السلام، ولم يكونوا كالأعراب الأجلاف ولا كمن لا يوقره دين ولا يزينه أدب، وكانوا يختنون أولادهم ويحجون البيت ويقيمون المناسك ويكفنون موتاهم ويغتسلون من الجنابة، وتبرأوا من الهربذة وتباعدوا في المناكح من البنت وبنت البنت والأخت وبنت الأخت غيرة وبعدا من المجوسية، ونزل القرآن بتوكيد صنيعهم وحسن اختيارهم، وكانوا يتزوجون بالصداق والشهود ويطلّقون ثلاثا ولذلك قال عبد الله بن عباس وقد سأله رجل عن طلاق العرب فقال: كان الرجل يطلق امرأته تطليقة ثم هو أحق بها فإن طلّقها ثنتين فهو أحق بها أيضا فإن طلقها ثلاثا فلا سبيل له إليها، ولذلك قال الأعشى:
أيا جارتي بيني فإنك طالقه، ... كذاك أمور الناس غاد وطارقه
وبيني فقد فارقت غير ذميمة، ... وموموقة منّا كما أنت وامقه
وبيني فإنّ البين خير من العصا ... وأن لا تري لي فوق رأسك بارقه
ومما زاد في شرفهم أنهم كانوا يتزوجون في أي القبائل شاءوا ولا شرط عليهم في ذلك ولا يزوجون أحدا حتى يشرطوا عليه بأن يكون متحمسا على دينهم يرون أن ذلك لا يحلّ لهم ولا يجوز لشرفهم حتى يدين لهم وينتقل إليهم، والتّحمّس: التشدّد في الدين، ورجل أحمس أي شجاع، فحمّسوا خزاعة ودانت لهم إذ كانت في الحرم وحمّسوا كنانة وجديلة قيس وهم فهم وعدوان ابنا عمرو بن قيس بن عيلان وثقيفا لأنهم سكنوا الحرم وعامر بن صعصعة وإن لم يكونوا من ساكني الحرم فإن أمّهم قرشية وهي مجد بنت تيم بن مرّة، وكان من سنّة الحمس أن لا يخرجوا أيام الموسم إلى عرفات إنما يقفون بالمزدلفة، وكانوا لا يسلأون ولا يأقطون ولا يرتبطون عنزا ولا بقرة ولا يغزلون صوفا ولا وبرا ولا يدخلون بيتا من الشّعر والمدر وإنما يكتنّون بالقباب الحمر في الأشهر الحرم ثم فرضوا على العرب قاطبة أن يطرحوا أزواد الحلّ إذا دخلوا الحرم وأن يخلّوا ثياب الحل ويستبدلوها بثياب الحرم إما شرى وإما عارية وإما هبة فإن وجدوا ذلك وإلا طافوا بالبيت عرايا وفرضوا على نساء العرب مثل ذلك إلا أن المرأة كانت تطوف في درع مفرّج المقاديم والمآخير، قالت امرأة وهي تطوف بالبيت:
اليوم يبدو بعضه أو كلّه، ... وما بدا منه فلا أحلّه
أخثم مثل القعب باد ظلّه ... كأنّ حمّى خيبر تملّه
وكلفوا العرب أن تفيض من مزدلفة وقد كانت تفيض من عرفة أيام كان الملك في جرهم وخزاعة وصدرا من أيام قريش، فلولا أنهم أمنع حيّ من العرب لما أقرّتهم العرب على هذا العزّ والإمارة مع نخوة العرب في إبائها كما أجلى قصيّ خزاعة وخزاعة جرهما، فلم تكن عيشتهم عيشة العرب، يهتبدون الهبيد ويأكلون الحشرات وهم الذين هشموا الثريد حتى قال فيهم الشاعر:
عمرو العلى هشم الثريد لقومه، ... ورجال مكة مسنتون عجاف
حتى سمي هاشما، وهذا عبد الله بن جدعان التيمي يطعم الرّغو والعسل والسمن ولبّ البرّ حتى قال فيه أمية بن أبي الصّلت:
له داع بمكة مشمعلّ، ... وآخر فوق دارته ينادي
إلى ردح من الشّيزى ملاء ... لباب البرّ يلبك بالشّهاد
وأول من عمل الحريرة سويد بن هرميّ، ولذلك قال الشاعر لبني مخزوم:
وعلمتم أكل الحرير وأنتم ... أعلى عداة الدهر جدّ صلاب
والحريرة: أن تنصب القدر بلحم يقطّع صغارا على ماء كثير فإذا نضج ذرّ عليه الدقيق فإن لم يكن لحم فهو عصيدة وقيل غير ذلك، وفضائل قريش كثيرة وليس كتابي بصددها، ولقد بلغ من تعظيم العرب لمكة أنهم كانوا يحجّون البيت ويعتمرون ويطوفون فإذا أرادوا الانصراف أخذ الرجل منهم حجرا من حجارة الحرم فنحته على صورة أصنام البيت فيحفى به في طريقه ويجعله قبلة ويطوفون حوله ويتمسحون به ويصلّون له تشبيها له بأصنام البيت، وأفضى بهم الأمر بعد طول المدة أنهم كانوا يأخذون الحجر من الحرم فيعبدونه فذلك كان أصل عبادة العرب للحجارة في منازلهم شغفا منهم بأصنام الحرم، وقد ذكرت كثيرا من فضائلها في ترجمة الحرم والكعبة فأغنى عن الإعادة، وأما رؤساء مكة فقد ذكرناهم في كتابنا المبدإ والمآل وأعيد ذكرهم ههنا لأن هذا الموضع مفتقر إلى ذلك، قال أهل الإتقان من أهل السير: إن إبراهيم الخليل لما حمل ابنه إسماعيل، عليهما السلام، إلى مكة، كما ذكرنا في باب الكعبة من هذا الكتاب، جاءت جرهم وقطوراء وهما قبيلتان من اليمن وهما ابنا عمّ وهما جرهم بن عامر بن سبإ بن يقطن بن عامر بن شالخ بن أرفخشد بن سام بن نوح، عليه السّلام، وقطوراء، فرأيا بلدا ذا ماء وشجر فنزلا ونكح إسماعيل في جرهم، فلما توفي ولي البيت بعده نابت بن إسماعيل وهو أكبر ولده ثم ولي بعده مضاض بن عمرو الجرهمي خال ولد إسماعيل ما شاء الله أن يليه ثم تنافست جرهم وقطوراء في الملك وتداعوا للحرب فخرجت جرهم من قعيقعان وهي أعلى مكة وعليهم مضاض ابن عمرو، وخرجت قطوراء من أجياد وهي أسفل مكة وعليهم السّميدع، فالتقوا بفاضح واقتتلوا قتالا شديدا فقتل السميدع وانهزمت قطوراء فسمي الموضع فاضحا لأن قطوراء افتضحت فيه، وسميت أجياد أجيادا لما كان معهم من جياد الخيل، وسميت فعيقعان لقعقعة السلاح، ثم تداعوا إلى الصلح واجتمعوا في الشعب وطبخوا القدور فسمي المطابخ، قالوا: ونشر الله ولد إسماعيل فكثروا وربلوا ثم انتشروا في البلاد لا يناوئون قوما إلا ظهروا عليهم بدينهم، ثم إن جرهما
بغوا بمكة فاستحلّوا حراما من الحرمة فظلموا من دخلها وأكلوا مال الكعبة وكانت مكة تسمى النّسّاسة لا تقرّ ظلما ولا بغيا ولا يبغي فيها أحد على أحد إلا أخرجته فكان بنو بكر بن عبد مناة بن كنانة بن غسان وخزاعة حلولا حول مكة فآذنوهم بالقتال فاقتتلوا فجعل الحارث بن عمرو بن مضاض الأصغر يقول:
لا همّ إنّ جرهما عبادك، ... الناس طرف وهم تلادك
فغلبتهم خزاعة على مكة ونفتهم عنها، ففي ذلك يقول عمرو بن الحارث بن عمرو بن مضاض الأصغر:
كأن لم يكن بين الحجون إلى الصفا ... أنيس ولم يسمر بمكة سامر
ولم يتربّع واسطا فجنوبه ... إلى السرّ من وادي الأراكة حاضر
بلى، نحن كنّا أهلها فأبادنا ... صروف الليالي والجدود العواثر
وأبدلنا ربي بها دار غربة ... بها الجوع باد والعدوّ المحاصر
وكنّا ولاة البيت من بعد نابت ... نطوف بباب البيت والخير ظاهر
فأخرجنا منها المليك بقدرة، ... كذلك ما بالناس تجري المقادر
فصرنا أحاديثا وكنا بغبطة، ... كذلك عضّتنا السنون الغوابر
وبدّلنا كعب بها دار غربة ... بها الذئب يعوي والعدوّ المكاثر
فسحّت دموع العين تجري لبلدة ... بها حرم أمن وفيها المشاعر
ثم وليت خزاعة البيت ثلاثمائة سنة يتوارثون ذلك كابرا عن كابر حتى كان آخرهم حليل بن حبشيّة بن سلول بن كعب بن عمرو بن ربيعة وهو خزاعة بن حارثة بن عمرو مزيقياء الخزاعي وقريش إذ ذاك هم صريح ولد إسماعيل حلول وصرم وبيوتات متفرقة حوالي الحرم إلى أن أدرك قصيّ بن كلاب بن مرّة وتزوّج حبّى بنت حليل بن حبشية وولدت بنيه الأربعة وكثر ولده وعظم شرفه ثم هلك حليل بن حبشيّة وأوصى إلى ابنه المحترش أن يكون خازنا للبيت وأشرك معه غبشان الملكاني وكان إذا غاب أحجب هذا حتى هلك الملكاني، فيقال إن قصيّا سقى المحترش الخمر وخدعه حتى اشترى البيت منه بدنّ خمر وأشهد عليه وأخرجه من البيت وتملّك حجابته وصار ربّ الحكم فيه، فقصيّ أول من أصاب الملك من قريش بعد ولد إسماعيل وذلك في أيام المنذر ابن النعمان على الحيرة والملك لبهرام جور في الفرس، فجعل قصي مكة أرباعا وبنى بها دار النّدوة فلا تزوّج امرأة إلا في دار الندوة ولا يعقد لواء ولا يعذر غلام ولا تدرّع جارية إلا فيها، وسميت الندوة لأنهم كانوا ينتدون فيها للخير والشر فكانت قريش تؤدّي الرفادة إلى قصي وهو خرج يخرجونه من أموالهم يترافدون فيه فيصنع طعاما وشرابا للحاج أيام الموسم، وكانت قبيلة من جرهم اسمها صوفة بقيت بمكة تلي الإجازة بالناس من عرفة مدة، وفيهم يقول الشاعر:
ولا يريمون في التعريف موقعهم ... حتى يقال أجيزوا آل صوفانا
ثم أخذتها منهم خزاعة وأجازوا مدة ثم غلبهم عليها بنو عدوان بن عمرو بن قيس بن عيلان وصارت إلى رجل منهم يقال له أبو سيّارة أحد بني سعد بن وابش ابن زيد بن عدوان، وله يقول الراجز:
خلّوا السبيل عن أبي سيّاره ... وعن مواليه بني فزاره
حتى يجيز سالما حماره ... مستقبل الكعبة يدعو جاره
وكانت صورة الإجازة أن يتقدمّهم أبو سيّارة على حماره ثم يخطبهم فيقول: اللهمّ أصلح بين نسائنا وعاد بين رعائنا واجعل المال في سمحائنا، وأوفوا بعهدكم وأكرموا جاركم واقروا ضيفكم، ثم يقول: أشرق ثبير كيما نغير، ثم ينفذ ويتبعه الناس، فلما قوي أمر قصيّ أتى أبا سيّارة وقومه فمنعه من الإجازة وقاتلهم عليها فهزمهم فصار إلى قصيّ البيت والرفادة والسقاية والندوة واللواء، فلما كبر قصيّ ورقّ عظمه جعل الأمر في ذلك كله إلى ابنه عبد الدار لأنه أكبر ولده وهلك قصيّ وبقيت قريش على ذلك زمانا، ثم إن عبد مناف رأى في نفسه وولده من النباهة والفضل ما دلّهم على أنهم أحق من عبد الدار بالأمر، فأجمعوا على أخذ ما بأيديهم وهمّوا بالقتال فمشى الأكابر بينهم وتداعوا إلى الصلح على أن يكون لعبد مناف السقاية والرفادة وأن تكون الحجابة واللواء والندوة لبني عبد الدار، وتعاقدوا على ذلك حلفا مؤكّدا لا ينقضونه ما بلّ بحر صوفة، فأخرجت بنو عبد مناف ومن تابعهم من قريش وهم بنو الحارث بن فهر وأسد بن عبد العزّى وزهرة بن كلاب وتيم بن مرّة جفنة مملوءة طيبا وغمسوا فيها أيديهم ومسحوا بها الكعبة توكيدا على أنفسهم فسمّوا المطيبين، وأخرجت بنو عبد الدار ومن تابعهم وهم مخزوم بن يقظة وجمح وسهم وعدي بن كعب جفنة مملوءة دما وغمسوا فيها أيديهم ومسحوا بها الكعبة فسمّوا الأحلاف ولعقة الدم ولم يل الخلافة منهم غير عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، والباقون من المطيّبين فلم يزالوا على ذلك حتى جاء الإسلام وقريش على ذلك حتى فتح النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، مكة في سنة ثمان للهجرة فأقرّ المفتاح في يد عثمان بن طلحة بن أبي طلحة بن عبد العزى ابن عثمان بن عبد الدار وكان النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أخذ المفاتيح منه عام الفتح فأنزلت: إن الله يأمركم أن تؤدوا الأمانات إلى أهلها، فاستدعاه ورد المفاتيح إليه وأقر السقاية في يد العباس فهي في أيديهم إلى الآن، وهذا هو كاف من هذا البحث، وأما صفتها، يعني مكة، فهي مدينة في واد والجبال مشرفة عليها من جميع النواحي محيطة حول الكعبة، وبناؤها من حجارة سود وبيض ملس وعلوها آجرّ كثيرة الأجنحة من خشب الساج وهي طبقات لطيفة مبيّضة، حارّة في الصيف إلا أن ليلها طيّب وقد رفع الله عن أهلها مؤونة الاستدفاء وأراحهم من كلف الاصطلاء، وكل ما نزل عن المسجد الحرام يسمونه المسفلة وما ارتفع عنه يسمونه المعلاة، وعرضها سعة الوادي، والمسجد في ثلثي البلد إلى المسفلة والكعبة في وسط المسجد، وليس بمكة ماء جار ومياهها من السماء، وليست لهم آبار يشربون منها وأطيبها بئر زمزم ولا يمكن الإدمان على شربها، وليس بجميع مكة شجر مثمر إلا شجر البادية فإذا جزت الحرم فهناك عيون وآبار وحوائط كثيرة وأودية ذات خضر ومزارع ونخيل وأما الحرم فليس به شجر مثمر إلا نخيل يسيرة متفرقة، وأما المسافات فمن الكوفة إلى مكة سبع وعشرون مرحلة وكذلك من البصرة إليها ونقصان يومين، ومن دمشق إلى مكة شهر، ومن عدن إلى مكة شهر، وله طريقان أحدهما على ساحل البحر وهو أبعد والآخر يأخذ على طريق صنعاء وصعدة ونجران والطائف حتى ينتهي إلى مكة، ولها طريق آخر على البوادي وتهامة وهو أقرب من الطريقين المذكورين أولا على أنها على أحياء العرب في بواديها ومخالفها لا يسلكها إلا الخواصّ منهم، وأما أهل حضرموت ومهرة فإنهم يقطعون عرض بلادهم حتى يتصلوا بالجادّة التي بين عدن ومكة، والمسافة بينهم إلى الأمصار بهذه الجادة من نحو الشهر إلى الخمسين يوما، وأما طريق عمان إلى مكة فهو مثل طريق دمشق صعب السلوك من البوادي والبراري القفر القليلة السكان وإنما طريقهم في البحر إلى جدّة فإن سلكوا على السواحل من مهرة وحضرموت إلى عدن بعد عليهم وقلّ ما يسلكونه، وكذلك ما بين عمان والبحرين فطريق شاقّ يصعب سلوكه لتمانع العرب فيما بينهم فيه.

(L.) And one says, مَعَاذَ اللّٰهِ, (S, A, O, L, K,) and مَعَاذَةَ اللّٰهِ, (S, O, L, K,) and مَعَاذَ وَجْهِ اللّٰهِ, and مَعَاذَةَ وَجْهِ اللّٰهِ, (S, O, L,) and عِيَاذَ اللّٰهِ, (A,) meaning أَعُوذُ بِاللّٰهِ مَعَاذًا [I seek protection, or preservation, by God; &c.; which is equivalent to the saying may God protect me, or preserve me]: (S, A, O, L, K:) مَعَاذًا [as also مَعَاذَةً] being here used instead of the verb because it is an inf. n., though [accord. to some] not employed as such [in other cases], like as is the case in the phrase سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ.

[اعرب is also used by grammarians as meaning He declined a word; and أُعْرِبَ as meaning It was declined, or declinable; in these senses opposed to بَنَى and بُنِىَ, inf. n. بِنَآءٌ: and the former also as meaning He analyzed grammatically, or parsed, a sentence: and the inf. n. of the verb (act. and pass.) in these senses is إِعْرَابٌ.] b3: See also 2, first sentence: b4: and again in the first third part of the paragraph. b5: إِعْرَابٌ also signifies The making [a person] to revert from, or relinquish, foul speech; (K, TA;) and so ↓ تَعْرِيبٌ. (TA.) b6: And The speaking foul, or obscene, language; as also ↓ تَعْرِيبٌ, and ↓ اِسْتِعْرَابٌ: (O, K:) thus it bears two contr. significations. (K, TA.) One says of a man, اعرب [&c.], (S, O,) or اعرب فِى كَلَامِهِ, (Msb,) He spoke foul, or obscene, language. (S, O, Msb.) [Golius and Freytag have assigned this meaning to ↓ تعرّب also: the latter of them as from the S and K; in neither of which do I find it.] b7: And The act of copulating: or the speaking of that act in an oblique, or indirect, manner. (K.) A2: and اعرب, (S, O,) inf. n. إِعْرَابٌ, (K,) He had a child born to him of Arabian complexion, or colour. (S, O, K.) b2: And He possessed, or acquired, or sought to acquire, horses, or camels, of pure Arabian race. (TA. [See also 2, in the middle of the latter half; and see مُعْرِبٌ.]) b3: And إِعْرَابٌ signifies One's knowing a horse of pure Arabian race from one of mean race by his neighing. (K.) And A horse's being known by his neighing to be of pure Arabian race, free from any admixture of other than Arabian blood: (K, TA:) [or his making himself to be known as such by his neighing; for] اعرب means he (a horse) neighed, and was consequently known to be of Arabian race. (A.) b4: And The making a horse to run. (K.) Accord. to Fr, one says, اعرب عَلَى فَرَسِهِ, meaning He made his horse to run: but he adds that some say اغرب. (O.) A3: And إِعْرَابٌ signifies The taking as one's wife a woman such as is termed عَرُوبٌ [q. v.]. (K.) A4: اعرب سَقْىُ القَوْمِ meansThe people's watering [of their camels], having been at one time on alternate days, and another time on the fourth day after that of the next preceding watering, then became, and continued to be, of one uniform way. (S, O.) A5: See also 2, last four sentences.5 تعرّب He assimilated himself to the Arabs. (S.) He (a man not of genuine Arabian descent) introduced himself among the Arabs, and spoke their language, and imitated their manner or appearance; [he became a naturalized, or an insitious, Arab; (see العَرَبُ;)] as also ↓ استعرب. (Az, TA.) b2: He became an Arab of the desert; (S, Mgh;) he returned to the desert, (Az, Mgh, TA,) after he had been dwelling in a region of cities or towns or villages and of cultivated land, and joined himself to the Arabs of the desert. (Az, TA.) Hence, تعرّب بَعْدَ هِجْرَتِهِ He became an Arab of the desert [after his flight, or emigration, for the sake of El-Islám], (S, Mgh,) returning to the desert. (Mgh.) b3: He dwelt, or abode, in the desert. (O, K.) b4: See also 4, first sentence. b5: تَعَرَّبَتْ لِزَوْجِهَا She acted in an amorous manner, or with amorous dalliance, and mani-fested love, to her husband. (A, TA.) b6: Respecting a meaning assigned to تعرّب by Golius and Freytag, see 4, latter half.10 استعرب: see 5: b2: see also 4, first sentence: b3: and the same again in the latter half of the paragraph.

A2: استعرب جَرَبًا, said of a camel, He was affected with mange, or scab, which began in his armpits and groins or similar parts, and his lips, and appeared upon the general extent of his skin. (O.) b2: And استعربت, said of a cow, She desired the bull. (O, K.) Q. Q. 1 عَرْبَنَ: see 2, near the end.

عَرْبٌ is syn. with إِعْرَابٌ in the sense of إِفْصَاحٌ [but app. as a subst. (not an inf. n.) meaning Clear, plain, or distinct, speech]. (TA.) b2: and syn. with عِرَابَةٌ, q. v. (TA.) b3: And syn. with عَرَبٌ as [inf. n. of عَرِبَ, and] meaning نَشَاطٌ [i. e. Briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]. (O, K.) العُرْبُ: see العَرَبُ, first sentence.

عِرْبٌ Such as is dried up, of the [species of barley-grass called] بُهْمَى: (S, O, K:) or of any herb, or leguminous plant: n. un. with ة: or عِرْبُ البُهْمَى signifies the prickles of the بُهْمَى. (TA.) العَرَبُ, (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K, &c.,) as also ↓ العُرْبُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) A certain people, or nation; [the Arabs, or Arabians;] (S, O;) the contr. of العَجَمُ (A, Msb, K, TA) and العُجْمُ; (TA;) the inhabitants of the cities, or large towns, (S, A, O, K,) or of the Arabian cities and towns or villages: (Mgh:) [but now, on the contrary, generally applied to those who dwell in the desert:] or those who have alighted and made their abode in the cultivated regions, and have taken as their homes the Arabian cities and towns or villages, and others also that are related to them: (Az, Msb:) or [accord. to general usage] an appellation of common application [to the whole nation]: (T, K:) [and in the lexicons and lexicological works applied to the desert Arabs of pure speech:] it is of the fem. gender: (Msb, K:) and العَرَبُ has two pls., namely, العُرُبُ, with two dammehs, and الأَعْرُبُ [which is a pl. of pauc.]: (Msb:) the rel. n. [which serves as a sing.] is ↓ عَرَبِىٌّ: (S, O, K: [عَرَبٌ عَرَبِىٌّ in the CK is a mistake:]) accord. to Az, (TA,) this appellation is applied to a man of established Arab lineage, even if he be not chaste, or correct, in speech. (Msb, TA.) The dim. of العَرَبُ is ↓ العُرَيْبُ, (S, O,) without ة, (O, TA,) an extr. word [with respect to analogy, as the undiminished noun is fem.]: (TA:) a poet (Abu-l-Hindee, whose name was 'Abd-El-Mu-min, son of 'AbdEl-Kuddoos, O, TA) says, وَمَكْنُ الضِّبَابِ طَعَامُ العُرَيْبِ وَلَا تَشْتَهِيهِ نُفُوسُ العَجَمْ

[And the eggs of dabbs are food of the little Arabs; but the souls of the Foreigners do not desire them]: in which he uses the dim. form to imply respect, or honour, like as it is used in the saying أَنَا جُذَيْلُهَا المُحَكَّكُ وَعُذَيْقُهَا المُرَجَّبُ [expl. in art. جذل]. (S, O.) b2: ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبَةُ (in which the latter word is used as a corroborative of the former as in لَيْلٌ لَائِلٌ, S, O) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرْبَآءُ (S, A, O, Msb, K) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرَبِيَّةُ (O) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرِبَةُ (K) and ↓ العَرَبُ العَرِبَاتُ (CK [but this I do not find in any other copy of the K]) are appellations of The pure, or genuine Arabs: (S, A, O, K:) or those who spoke the language of Yaarub Ibn-Kahtán; which is the ancient language: (Msb:) and ↓ العَرَبُ المُسْتَعْرِبَةُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) as also ↓ العَرَبُ المُتَعَرِّبَةُ, (S, O, K,) is an appellation of The insititious [or naturalized Arabs]; (K;) those who are not pure, or genuine, Arabs: (S, O:) or those who spoke the language of Ismá'eel [or Ishmael] the son of Ibráheem [or Abraham], i. e., the dialects of El-Hijáz and the parts adjacent thereto: (Msb:) and the appellation of ↓ مُسْتَعْرِبَةٌ is thought by Az to apply [also] to people not of pure Arabian descent, who have introduced themselves among the Arabs, and speak their language, and imitate their manner or appearance. (TA.) [The former division is most reasonably considered as consisting of the extinct tribes ('Ád, Thamood, and others mentioned in what follows); or of these together with the unmixed descendants of Kahtán, whose claims to the appellation of genuine Arabs are held by many to be equally valid: and the latter division, as consisting of those whose origin is referred, through Ma'add and 'Adnán, to Ismá'eel (or Ishmael), whose wife was descended from Kahtán. What I find in the TA, on this subject, is as follows.] The former of these two divisions consisted of nine tribes, descendants of Irem [or Aram] the son of Sám [or Shem] the son of Nooh [or Noah]; namely, 'Ád, Thamood, Umeiyim, 'Abeel, Tasm, Jedees, 'Imleek [or Amalek], Jurhum, and Webári; and from them Ismá'eel [or Ishmael is said to have] learned the Arabic language: and the ↓ مُتَعَرِّبَة are [said to be] the descendants of Ismá'eel, the descendants of Ma'add the son of 'Adnán the son of Udd: so says Abu-l-Khattáb Ibn-Dihyeh, surnamed Dhun-Nesebeyn: or the former division consisted of seven tribes, namely, 'Ád, Thamood, 'Imleek, Tasm, Jedees, Umeiyim, and Jásim; the main portion of whom has become extinct, some remains of them, only, being scattered among the [existing] tribes: so says IDrd: and the appellation of ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبَةُ is also given to the descendants of Yaarub the son of Kahtán [only]. (TA.) [It should be observed, however, that the appellation of ↓ المُتَعَرِّبَةُ is, by those who hold the extinct tribes above mentioned as the only genuine Arabs, applied to the unmixed descendants of Kahtán; and ↓ المُسْتَعْرِبَةُ, to those who are held to be the descendants of Ismá'eel: thus in the Mz, 1st نوع.

Also, it should be observed that the appellation of ↓ العَرَبُ العَارِبِةُ, in the conventional language of Arabic lexicology, is often applied to the Arabs of the classical ages, and the later Arabs of the desert who retained the pure language of their ancestors, indiscriminately: it is thus applied by writers quoted in the Mz (1st نوع) to all the descendants of Kahtán, and those of Ma'add the son of 'Adnán (through whom all the descendants of Ismá'eel trace their ancestry) who lived before the corruption, among them, of the Arabic language.] b3: ↓ الأَعْرَابُ is the appellation given to Those [Arabs] who dwell in the desert; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) such as go about in search of herbage and water; and Az adds, whether of the Arabs or of their freedmen: he says that it is applied to those who alight and abide in the desert, and are neighbours of the dwellers in the desert, and journey, or migrate, with them, to seek after herbage and water: (Msb:) it is not a pl. of العَرَبُ, not being like الأَنْبَاطُ, which is pl. of النَّبَطُ; (S, O;) but is a [coll.] gen. n.: (S:) الأَعَارِيبُ occurs as its pl. (S, O, K) in chaste poetry: (S:) it has no sing. [properly so termed]: (K:) the rel. n. is ↓ أَعْرَابِىٌّ, (S, O,) which is applied to single person; (Msb;) as also بَدَوِىٌّ: (TA:) Az says, if one say to an أَعْرَابِىّ, يَا عَرَبِىُّ, he is pleased; and if one say to an عَرَبِىّ, يَا أَعْرَابِىُّ, he is angry. (TA.) b4: Authors differ as to the cause why the عَرَب were thus called: some say, because of the perspicuity of their speech, from إِعْرَابٌ: others, that they were so called from Yaarub the son of Kahtán, who is said to have been the first that spoke the Arabic language; his original language having been, as asserted by IDrd, [what the Arabs term] Syriac; though some say that Ismá'eel was the first that spoke the Arabic language; and some, that Yaarub was the first that spoke Arabic, and that Ismá'eel was the first that spoke the pure Arabic of El-Hijáz, in which the Kur-án was revealed: others say that the عَرَب were so called from العَرَبَةُ, the name of a tract near El-Medeeneh, or a name of Mekkeh and the adjacent region, where Ismá'eel settled, or the same as Tihámeh [as is said in the Mgh, in which this is pronounced to be the most correct derivation], or the general name of the peninsula of Arabia, which is also called العَرَبَاتُ [as is said in the Msb]: but some say that they were so called in like manner as were the فُرْس and the رُوم and the تُرْك and others, not after the name of a land or other than a land, but by the coining of the name, not a term expressive of a quality or a state or condition &c. (TA.) [If the country were called العَرَبَةُ, an inhabitant thereof might be called, agreeably with analogy, عَرَبِىٌّ; and then, the people collectively, العَرَبُ: but I think that the most probable derivation is from the old Hebrew word

עְרֶב, meaning “ a mixed people,”

which the Arabs assert themselves to have been, almost from the first; and in favour of this derivation it may be reasonably urged that the old Himyeritic language agrees more in its vocabulary with the Hebrew and Phœnician than it does with the classical and modern Arabic.]

A2: See also عَرَبَةٌ.

A3: And see عَرِبٌ.

A4: [It also app. signifies (assumed tropical:) Vagueness (considered as an unsoundness) in a word; from the same as inf. n. of عَرِبَ used in relation to the stomach &c.:] see 4, latter half.

عَرَبَةٌ A river that flows with a vehement, or strong, current. (S, O, K.) A2: And i. q. نَفْسٌ [The soul, mind, or self]. (S, O, K.) [It is thought to occur in a pl. sense, without ة, as a coll. gen. n., in the following sense, quoted in the S immediately after the explanation above.] A poet says, (S,) namely, Ibn-Meiyádeh, (O,) لَمَّا أَتَيْتُكَ أَرْجُو فَضْلَ نَائِلِكُمْ

↓ نَفَحْتَنِى نَفَحَةً طَابَتْ لَهَا العَرَبُ [When I came to thee, hoping for the redundance of your bounty, thou gavest me a gift with which the souls were pleased]: (S, O:) thus related by some, and expl. as meaning طَابَتْ لَهَا النُّفُوسُ: but the [approved] relation is, طَارَتْ بِهَا العَرَبُ [(assumed tropical:) which the Arabs made to fly upon the wings of fame], i. e. حَدَّثَتِ العَرَبُ النَّاسَ بِهَا [meaning (assumed tropical:) of which the Arabs talked to the people]. (O.) A3: Also sing. of عَرَبَاتٌ (TA) which is the name of Certain stationary vessels that used to be in the Tigris. (K, TA.) b2: [As meaning A wheel-carriage of any kind (which is commonly called in Egypt عَرَبِيَّة) it is post-classical.]

(O, K, TA.) Omar said, ↓ لَا تَنْقُشُوا فِى خَوَاتِيمِكُمُ العَرَبِيَّةَ [Engrave not on your signets Arabic]: and Ibn-'Omar disapproved of engraving on a signet words from the Kur-án. (Mgh, * O, TA.) [عَرَبِىُّ الوَجْهِ often occurs in post-classical works as meaning Having an Arab face; i. e. long-faced; opposed to تُرْكِىُّ الوَجْهِ.] b3: See also عِرَابٌ, in two places.

(TA.) العَرَبِيَّةُ The Arabic language; (S, TA;) the language of the Kur-án. (Msb.) Katádeh says that the tribe of Kureysh used to cull, or select, what was most excellent in the dialects of the Arabs, [in the doing of which they were aided by the confluence of pilgrims from all parts of the country,] so that their dialect became the most excellent of all, and the Kur-án was therefore revealed in that dialect. (TA.) See also عَرَبِىٌّ, in two places. b2: And see عُرُوبَةٌ.

عَرْبَانُ [written in the TA without any syll. signs, but it is app. thus, fem. عَرْبَآءُ (like حَيْرَآءُ fem. of حَيْرَانُ), whence, probably, the appellation ↓ العَرَبُ العَرْبَآءُ,] A man chaste, uncorrupt, or free from barbarousness, in speech: so in the Towsheeh. (TA.) [See also عَرِيبٌ.]

(O.) b2: [Hence,] أَلْقَى عَرَبُونَهُ (assumed tropical:) He ejected his excrement, or ordure. (O, K, TA.) عِرْبِيَآءُ: see عَرُوبَآءُ.

(Msb.) [مُعَرَّبٌ alone is also used in this sense, as a subst: and as such its pl. is مُعَرَّبَاتٌ: thus in the Mz, ubi suprà; and often in lexicons &c.]

العُزَّى:
بضم أوله في قوله تعالى: أَفَرَأَيْتُمُ اللَّاتَ وَالْعُزَّى 53: 19، اللّات: صنم كان لثقيف، والعزّى:
سمرة كانت لغطفان يعبدونها وكانوا بنوا عليها بيتا وأقاموا لها سدنة، فبعث النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، خالد بن الوليد إليها فهدم البيت وأحرق السّمرة، والعزّى تأنيث الأعزّ مثل الكبرى تأنيث الأكبر، والأعزّ بمعنى العزيز والعزى بمعنى العزيزة، وقال ابن حبيب: العزى شجرة كانت بنخلة عندها وثن تعبده غطفان وسدنتها من بني صرمة بن مرّة، قال أبو منذر بعد ذكر مناة واللّات: ثم اتخذوا العزّى وهي أحدث من اللات ومناة، وذلك أني سمعت العرب سمّت بها عبد العزّى فوجدت تميم بن مرّ سمّى ابنه زيد مناة بن تميم بن مرّ بن أدّ بن طابخة وعبد مناة بن أدّ، وباسم اللّات سمّى ثعلبة بن عكابة ابنه تيم اللات وتيم اللات بن رفيدة بن ثور وزيد اللات بن رفيدة بن ثور بن وبرة بن مرّ بن أدّ ابن طابخة وتيم اللات بن النمر بن قاسط وعبد العزّى ابن كعب بن سعد بن زيد مناة بن تميم، فهي أحدث من الأولين، وعبد العزّى بن كعب من أقدم ما سمّت به العرب، وكان الذي اتخذ العزّى ظالم بن أسعد، وكانت بواد من نخلة الشامية يقال له حراض بازاء الغمير عن يمين المصعد إلى العراق من مكة، وذلك فوق ذات عرق إلى البستان بتسعة أميال، فبني عليها بسّا، يريد بيتا، وكانوا يسمعون فيه الصوت، وكانت العرب وقريش تسمّي بها عبد العزّى، وكانت أعظم الأصنام عند قريش، وكانوا يزورونها ويهدون لها ويتقرّبون عندها بالذبائح، قال أبو المنذر: وقد بلغنا أن النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، ذكرها يوما فقال: لقد اهتديت للعزّى شاة عفراء وأنا على دين قومي، وكانت قريش تطوف بالكعبة وتقول: واللّات والعزّى ومناة الثالثة الأخرى فانهنّ الغرانيق العلى وإن شفاعتهنّ لترتجى، وكانوا يقولون بنات الله، عز وجل، وهنّ يشفعن إليه، فلما بعث رسوله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أنزل عليه:
أفرأيتم اللّات والعزّى ومناة الثالثة الأخرى، ألكم الذكر وله الأنثى تلك إذا قسمة ضيزى، إن هي إلا أسماء سميتموها أنتم وآباؤكم ما أنزل الله بها من سلطان، وكانت قريش قد حمت لها شعبا من وادي حراض يقال له سقام يضاهئون به حرم الكعبة، وقد ذكر سقام في موضعه من هذا الكتاب، وللعزّى يقول درهم بن زيد الأوسي:
إني وربّ العزّى السعيدة والل ... هـ الذي دون بيته سرف
وكان لها منحر ينحرون فيه هداياهم يقال له الغبغب، وقد ذكر في موضعه أيضا، وكانت قريش تخصها بالإعظام فلذلك يقول زيد بن عمرو بن نفيل، وكان قد تألّه في الجاهلية وترك عبادتها وعبادة غيرها من الأصنام:
تركت اللّات والعزّى جميعا، ... كذلك يفعل الجلد الصّبور
فلا العزّى أدين ولا ابنتيها، ... ولا صنمي بني عمرو أزور
ولا هبلا أزور وكان ربّا ... لنا في الدهر، إذ حلمي صغير
وكانت سدنة العزّى بني شيبان بن جابر بن مرّة بن عبس بن رفاعة بن الحارث بن عتبة بن سليم بن منصور، وكانوا حلفاء بني الحارث بن عبد المطلب بن هاشم بن عبد مناف، وكان آخر من سدنها منهم دبيّة بن حرمي السلمي، وله يقول أبو خراش الهذلي وكان قدم عليه فحذاه نعلين جيدتين فقال:
حذاني بعد ما خذمت نعالي ... دبيّة، إنه نعم الخليل
مقابلتين من صلوي مشبّ ... من الثيران وصلهما جميل
فنعم معرّس الأضياف تدحى ... رحالهم شآمية بليل
يقابل جوعهم بمكلّلات ... من القربى يرعّبها الحميل
فلم تزل العزى كذلك حتى بعث الله نبيّه، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، فعابها وغيرها من الأصنام ونهاهم عن عبادتها ونزل القرآن فيها فاشتدّ ذلك على قريش ومرض أبو أحيحة سعيد بن العاصي بن أمية بن عبد شمس بن عبد مناف مرضه الذي مات فيه، فدخل عليه أبو لهب يعوده فوجده يبكي فقال له: ما يبكيك يا أبا أحيحة، أمن الموت تبكي ولا بدّ منه؟ فقال:
لا ولكني أخاف ألا تعبدوا العزّى بعدي، فقال له أبو لهب: ما عبدت في حياتك لأجلك ولا تترك عبادتها بعدك لموتك، فقال أبو أحيحة: الآن علمت أن لي خليفة، وأعجبه شدّة نصبه في عبادتها، قال أبو المنذر: وكان سعيد بن العاصي أبو أحيحة يعتمّ بمكة فإذا اعتم لم يعتمّ أحد بلون عمامته، قال أبو المنذر: حدّثني أبي عن أبي صالح عن ابن عباس، رضي الله عنه، قال: كانت العزى شيطانة تأتي ثلاث سمرات ببطن نخلة، فلما افتتح النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، مكة بعث خالد بن الوليد فقال له: ائت بطن نخلة فإنك تجد ثلاث سمرات فاعضد الأولى، فأتاها فعضدها، فلما عاد إليه قال: هل رأيت شيئا؟
قال: لا، قال: فاعضد الثانية، فأتاها فعضدها، فلما عاد إليه قال: هل رأيت شيئا؟ قال: لا، قال:
فاعضد الثالثة، فأتاها فإذا هو بخنّاسة نافشة شعرها واضعة يديها على عاتقها تصرف بأنيابها وخلفها دبيّة ابن حرمي السلمي ثم الشيباني وكان سادنها، فلما نظر إلى خالد قال:
أعزّيّ شدّي شدّة لا تكذّبي، ... على خالد ألقي الخمار وشمّري
فإنك إلا تقتلي اليوم خالدا، ... فبوئي بذلّ عاجل وتنصّري
فقال خالد:
يا عزّ كفرانك لا سبحانك، ... إني رأيت الله قد أهانك
ثم ضربها ففلّق رأسها فإذا هي حممة ثم عضد الشجر وقتل دبيّة السادن، وفيه يقول أبو خراش الهذلي يرثيه:
ما لدبيّة منذ اليوم لم أره ... وسط الشروب ولم يلمم ولم يطف
لو كان حيّا لغاداهم بمترعة ... من الرواويق من شيزى بني الهطف
ضخم الرّماد عظيم القدر جفنته ... حين الشتاء كحوض المنهل اللّقف
قال هشام: يطف من الطّوفان أو من طاف يطيف، والهطف: بطن من عمرو بن أسد، واللقف: الحوض المنكسر الذي يغلب أصله الماء فيتثلم، يقال: قد
لقف الحوض، ثم أتى النبيّ، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، فأخبره قال: تلك العزى ولا عزّى بعدها للعرب، أما إنها لن تعبد بعد اليوم! قال: ولم تكن قريش بمكة ومن أقام بها من العرب يعظمون شيئا من الأصنام إعظامهم العزّى ثم اللات ثم مناة، فأما العزى فكانت قريش تخصها دون غيرها بالهدية والزيارة وذلك فيما أظن لقربها منهم، وكانت ثقيف تخص اللات كخاصة قريش العزّى، وكانت الأوس والخزرج تخص مناة كخاصة هؤلاء الآخرين، وكلهم كان معظما لها ولم يكونوا يرون في الخمسة الأصنام التي دفعها عمرو بن لحيّ، وهي التي ذكرها الله تعالى في القرآن المجيد حيث قال: وَلا تَذَرُنَّ وَدًّا وَلا سُواعاً وَلا يَغُوثَ وَيَعُوقَ وَنَسْراً 71: 23، كرأيهم في هذه ولا قريبا من ذلك فظننت أن ذلك كان لبعدها منهم، وكانت قريش تعظمها وكانت غنيّ وباهلة يعبدونها معهم، فبعث النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، خالد ابن الوليد فقطع الشجر وهدم البيت وكسر الوثن.

وفي الكالا: ( Pinpinella ألف دينار) وفي ابن البيطار (1: 95): وهو نبات له ورق شبيه بورق النبات الذي يعرفه عامة الغرب خير من ألف وهو كزبرة الثعلب. هذا ما جاء في مخطوطة أمنه وفي مخطوطة ب: خير من ألف دينار. وليس من الضروري إضافة كلمة دينار ويؤيد هذا ما جاء في المخطوطتين أوب (2: 62): هذا النبات تسميه عامتنا بالأندلس خير من ألف.
ذو ألف ورقة (ابن البيطار 1: 474) أو ألف ورق (الكالا) نبات يسمى أيضا اسطراطيوطس البري، ففي ابن البيطار (1: 1) بعد قوله إنه ذو ألف ورقة قال: ((وقد يسمى أيضاً اسطراطيوطس البري بهذا الاسم)).
إِلْف: في كلام بمأمون: ذاك غرس يدي وإلف أدبي. وقد ترجمت ألف بمعنى: مريد وتلميذ (معجم المختار) وأرى أن إلف هنا لها معناها اللغوي المعتاد وهو الرفيق الذي يؤلف. ويجب ترجمتها بما معناه رفيقي الذي يجاريني في آداب السلوك. - والإِلف: الصديق (معجم مسلم).

مؤتلف: المجانس لفظاً، ويطلق على الإسناد الذي يرد فيه اسم راو من الرواة يجانس في الكتابة اسم راو آخر ولكنه يلفظ بصورة تختلف عن الأول (دى سلان، المقدمة 2: 483).

سلم

1 سَلِمَ, [aor. ـَ inf. n. سَلَامَةٌ (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K) and سَلَامٌ (A, TA) and سَلَمٌ and سَلْمٌ and سِلْمٌ, (Bd in xxxix. 30,) He was, or became, safe, or secure; or he escaped; (M, TA;) or he was, or became, free; (TA;) مِنَ الآفَاتِ [from evils of any kind], (S, Mgh,) or مِنَ الآفَةِ [from evil of any kind], (K,) or مِنَ البَلَآءِ [from trial, or affliction], (A, TA,) or مِنَ الأَمْرِ [from the affair]: (M:) he (a traveller) was, or became, safe, secure, or free, from evils of any kind: (Msb:) and سَلِمَ مِنَ العَيْبِ he was, or became, free from fault, defect, imperfection, blemish, or vice; syn. بَرِئَ. (Msb in art. برأ.) [Hence,] one says, لَا بِذِى تَسْلَمُ مَا كَانَ

گَذَا وَكَذَا, (ISk, S, K, *) meaning No, by God [or Him] who maketh thee to be in safety, (ISk, S, K,) [such and such things were not;] and to two persons لا بذى تَسْلَمَانِ, and to a pl. number لا بذى تَسْلَمُونَ, and to a female لا بذى تَسْلَمِينَ, and to a pl. number [of females] لا بذى تَسْلَمْنَ. (ISk, S, K. *) And لَا أَفْعَلُ ذٰلِكَ بِذِى تَسْلَمُ, meaning, بِذِى سَلَامَتِكِ [i. e. I will not do that, by the Author (lit. Lord or Master) of thy safety]; and in like manner, بذى تَسْلَمَانِ, and بذى تَسْلَمُونَ. (Sb, M. [See also ذو.]) And اِذْهَبْ بِذِى تَسْلَمُ, i. e. اِذْهَبْ بِسَلَامَتِكَ [Go thou with thy safety; or, with the Author of thy safety to protect thee; meaning go thou in safety]; and [to two persons]

اِذْهَبَا بِذِى تَسْلَمَانِ. (S, K.) ذى is thus prefixed to a verb [as virtually governing it in the gen. case] like as آيَة is in an instance mentioned under this latter word; but these are two extr. instances; for only a noun significant of time is [regularly] prefixed to a verb, as in the phrase هٰذَا يَوْمُ يُفْعَلُ, meaning يُفْعَلُ فِيهِ: (Akh, S:) it is not prefixed to any but this verb تَسْلَمُ [and its variations as above mentioned]. (Sb, M, K.) b2: And hence, (Mgh,) one says also, سَلِمَتْ لَهُ الضَّيْعَةُ, meaning [The landed estate] was, or became, free from participation to him; syn. خَلَصَت. (Mgh, TA.) A2: سلمهُ, [app. سَلَمَهُ, or perhaps سَلِمَهُ, for some verbs of this measure are trans., as حَسِبَ and وَرِثَ,] inf. n. سلم, [app. سَلَمٌ, q. v. infrà,] He made him a captive. (TA.) A3: سَلَمَتْهُ الحَيَّةُ, (TA,) inf. n. سَلْمٌ, (M, K, TA,) The serpent bit him: (M, * K, * TA:) mentioned by Az, but he adds that no one but Lth has said this. (TA.) A4: سَلَمَ الجِلْدَ, aor. ـِ (S, K,) inf. n. سَلْمٌ, (TA,) He tanned the skin with [قَرَظ, i. e. leaves of] the سَلَم [or mimosa flava]. (S, K, TA.) b2: سَلَمَ الدَّلْوَ, (M, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. سَلْمٌ, (M,) He finished making the leathern bucket; and made it firm, strong, or sound, or made it firmly, strongly, or soundly. (M, K.) 2 سلّمهُ, (S, M, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَسْلِيمٌ, (K,) He (God) made him to be safe, secure, or free; saved, secured, or freed, him; (M, Msb, TA;) مِنَ الآفَاتِ [from evils of any kind], (S, Msb,) or مِنَ الآفَةِ [from evil of any kind], (K,) or مِنَ الأَمْرِ [from the affair]. (M.) [Freytag assigns the same meaning to ↓ اسلمهُ also, as on the authority of the Ham; in which I find no explanation of this verb except one which will be found later in this paragraph.] b2: [Hence,] التَّسْلِيمُ is also syn. with السَّلَامُ, (S, K, TA,) as meaning The saluting, or greeting, one with a prayer for his safety, or security, or freedom, from evils of any kind in his religion and in his person; and the interpretation thereof is [the expressing a desire for] التَّخْلِيصٌ; (Mbr, TA;) or the saluting, or greeting, one with a prayer for his life; or, by saying سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ [q. v. infrà, voce سَلَامٌ]; syn. التَّحِيَّةُ. (TA.) You say, سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ [meaning He so saluted, or greeted, him]. (M, Msb.) [This, when said of God, virtually means سَلَّمَهُ, i. e. He saved him; and should be rendered agreeably with this explanation in the phrase commonly used after the mention of the Prophet, صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ May God bless and save him. You say also, سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ بِالخِلَافَةِ He saluted him with the acknowledgment of his being Khaleefeh; saying, سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ يَا أَمِيرَ المُؤْمِنِينَ Salutation to thee, or peace be on thee, &c., O Prince of the Faithful.] التَّسْلِيمَةُ signifies The salutation that is pronounced on finishing every two rek'ahs in prayer: (Har p. 180:) [and also that which is pronounced after the last rek'ah of each of the prayers (i. e. after the sunneh prayers and the fard alike), addressed to the two guardian and recording angels: (see my “ Modern Egyptians,” ch. iii., p. 78 of the 5th ed.:) and سَلَّمَ means He pronounced either of those salutations.] b3: [Hence also,] سلّم إِلَيْهِ الشَّىْءَ, (S, K, *) inf. n. as above; (K;) and ↓ اسلم اليه الشىءَ; (M;) He gave to him the thing; (S, * M, K;) or delivered it to him: (M:) [he resigned it to him:] and سلّم إِلَيْهِ الوَدِيعَةَ, (Mgh,) or سلّم الوَدِيعَةَ لِصَاحِبِهَا, He delivered the deposit [to him, or] to its owner: (Msb:) and ↓ اسلم الثَّوْبَ إِلَى الخَيَّاطِ (Mgh) signifies the same as سلّمهُ إِلَيْهِ [i. e. He delivered the garment, or piece of cloth, to the tailor]. (Har p. 166.) b4: See also 4, in two places. b5: You say also, سلّم الأَجِيرُ نَفْسَهُ لِلْمُسْتَأْجِرِ The hired man gave himself up, or gave authority over himself, to the hirer. (Msb.) And ↓ أَسْلَمْتُهُ and سَلَّمْتُهُ I left him in the power of him who desired to kill him or to wound him. (Ham p. 115.) And لِلْهَلَكَةِ ↓ اسلمهُ [He gave him up to destruction]: in this case with [the prep.] ل only. (Har p. 166.) and الرَّجُلَ ↓ اسلم, (S, * M, Msb, *) or العَدُوَّ, (K,) He left, forsook, or deserted, (M, K,) the man, (S, * M, Msb, *) or the enemy; (K;) or abstained from aiding, or assisting, him; (S, M, Msb, K;) and threw him into destruction. (IAth, TA.) and لِمَا بِهِ ↓ اسلمهُ He left him [to that bane which was in him: app. referring to the bite of a serpent, or any evil affection: see سَلِيمٌ, third sentence]. (S, * M.) b6: And سلّم أَمْرَهُ إِلَى اللّٰهِ and ↓ اسلمهُ, both meaning the same, (S, Msb, K, TA,) i. e. He committed his case to God. (TA.) b7: And سلّم الدَّعْوَى He acknowledged the truth [or justice] of the claim, demand, or suit; [he conceded its truth or justice;] from سلّم الوَدِيعَةَ لِصَاحِبِهَا, expl. above; denoting an ideal delivering [or yielding of a thing to another person]. (Msb.) [Hence one says, سلّم أَنَّهُ كَذَا He conceded that it was thus.] b8: And التَّسْلِيمُ signifies also [The assenting, or] the giving [one's] approval (S, K, TA) unreservedly, (S,) to that which is ordained, or decreed, (S, K, TA,) by God; and the submitting to his commands; and the abstaining from offering opposition in the case in which it is not becoming [to do so]. (TA.) You say, سلّم لِأَمْرِ اللّٰهِ He assented to the command of God: [or he gave his approval to it:] or he submitted to it; as also ↓ اسلم. (MA.) 3 سالمهُ, (M, Msb,) inf. n. مُسَالَمَةٌ (S, M, Msb) and سِلَامٌ, (M, Msb,) He made peace, or became at peace or reconciled, with him; or he reconciled himself with him: [implying mutual concession, or a compromise:] (S, * M, Msb:) and سَالَمَا They made peace, or became at peace or reconciled, or they reconciled themselves, each with the other. (K.) 4 أَسْلَمَ see 2, in nine places. [The first of the meanings there assigned to this verb is, in my opinion, more than doubtful. In all its senses, it seems to be properly trans.: when it is used as an intrans. verb, an objective complement is app. understood. Thus,] أَسْلَمَ is syn. with أَسْلَفَ [as meaning He paid in advance, or beforehand]; (S, M, Mgh, Msb;) الثَّمَنَ [the price] being suppressed, though sometimes it is expressed; (Mgh;) as also ↓ سلّم; (M;) and ↓ تسلّم, as occurring in a trad., where it is said, مَنْ تَسَلَّمَ فِى شَىْءٍ فَلَا يَصْرِفُهُ إِلَى غَيْرِهِ [Whoso pays in advance for a thing, he shall not turn it over, or transfer it, to another than him]; but KT says that he had not heard this verb thus used except in this instance. (TA.) So the first of these verbs signifies in the saying, اسلم فِى الطَّعَامِ (S) or فى البُرِّ (Mgh) [He paid in advance for the wheat], and فى الشَّىْءِ [for the thing], as also ↓ سلّم. (M.) and hence the saying, إِذَا أَسْلَمَ صُوفًا فِى لِبْدٍ أَوْ شَعَرًا فِى

مِسْحٍ لَمْ يَجُزْ [If he give in advance wool for felt, or goats' hair for a garment, or piece, of haircloth, it will not be allowable]. (Mgh.) And so in the phrase, أَسْلَمْتُ إِلَيْهِ [I paid in advance to him]. (Msb.) b2: Also [He resigned, or submitted, himself; نَفْسَهُ being understood: or] he was, or became, resigned, or submissive; (M, K;) and so ↓ استسلم: (S, M, Msb, K:) you say, اسلم لِلّٰهِ [He resigned, or submitted, himself, or he was, or became, resigned, or submissive, to God: see also an ex. (before referred to) in the last sentence of the second paragraph: or he was, or became, sincere in his religion, or without hypocrisy, towards God: see مُسْلِمٌ]: (Msb:) [or]

اسلم signifies he entered into السِّلْم, (S, Msb,) which here means الاِسْتِسْلَام [i. e. the state of resignation, or submission]. (S.) b3: And He became a Muslim; as also ↓ تسلّم; (M, * K;) as in the saying, كَانَ كَافِرًا ثُمَّ تَسَلَّمَ, i. e. أَسْلَمَ [He was an unbeliever, or a denier of the unity of God, &c.; then he became a Muslim]: (M:) or he entered [the pale, or communion, of] the religion of الإِسْلَام. (S, * Msb.) الإِسْلَامُ as a principle of the law of God is The manifesting of humility or submission, and outward conforming with the law of God, and the taking upon oneself to do or to say as the Prophet has done or said: for this, the blood is to be spared, and one may demand the repelling of evil: (T, * M:) and if there is therewith firm belief with the heart, it is إِيمَانٌ: (T:) this is the doctrine of Esh-Sháfi'ee; but the doctrine of Aboo-Haneefeh makes no difference between these two terms: (KT:) [agreeably with the former doctrine,] Th well and briefly says, الاسلام is with the tongue, and الايمان is with the heart: and he says, in explaining verse 48 of ch. v. of the Kur, that every prophet has been sent with الاسلام, though the ordinances differ. (M.) b4: One says also, أَسْلَمْتُ عَنْهُ, meaning I left it [app. an affair, as in an explanation in the TK,] after I had been [engaged] in it. (Ibn-Buzurj, K.) And اسلم occurs intransitively in the saying, كَانَ رَاعِىَ غَنَمٍ ثُمَّ

أَسْلَمَ, meaning [He was a pastor of sheep, or goats; then] he left them. (M.) b5: [Freytag assigns to اسلم another signification “ Adscendere fecit (vid. a سُلَّم),” as from the Ham, p. 39: but this is app. a mistake, into which he has been led by a saying, there cited, of Zuheyr, which I read thus: هَوِىَّ الدَّلْوِ أَسْلَمَهَا الرِّشَآءُ (meaning, The descent, or as the descent, of the bucket that the well-rope has let go): and by its being there said that “ you should not prefer any reading of هوى to that with damm, though it has been said otherwise: ” whereas the correct reading is, in my opinion, هَوِىّ, agreeably with what here follows:] Er-Riyáshee says, on the authority of Az, that الهَوِىُّ, with fet-h, is downwards; and with damm, upwards; and he cites the saying above as an ex. of the word as meaning downwards. (TA in art. هوى.) 5 تسلّم مِنْهُ He asserted, or declared, himself to be free from, or clear of, or quit of, it, or him. (M.) b2: تسلّم is also syn. with أُسْلَمَ, in two senses: see the latter, in two places.

A2: and تسلّمهُ signifies He took it, or received it; namely, a thing given, or delivered. (S, M, Msb, K.) 6 تسالموا, (M,) and تسالما, (K,) inf. n. تَسَالُمٌ, (S,) They, (M,) or they two, (K,) made peace, or became at peace or reconciled, (S, * M, K,) one with another, (S, M,) or each with the other. (S, K.) [See also 8.] b2: One says of a man, (M,) of a great, or frequent, liar, (TA,) لَا تَسَالَمُ خَيْلَاهُ, [for تَتَسَالَمُ,] (M,) or لَا يَتَسَالَمُ خَيْلَاهُ, (K, TA,) [(assumed tropical:) His two troops of horses will not agree in pace, each with the other;] meaning (tropical:) [his assertions will not be found to agree together; or] he will not say what is true, so that it may be accepted from him: for تَسَالَمَتْ, said of horses, means (assumed tropical:) they kept pace, one with another; (تَسَايَرَتْ [q. v.];) not exciting one another. (M, K, TA.) 8 استلم He became at peace, or reconciled. (TA.) Hence the saying, (TA,) هُوَ لَا يَسْتَلَمُ عَلَى

سَخَطِهِ He will not become at peace, or reconciled, during his displeasure at a thing. (K, TA.) [See also 6.] b2: استلم الزَّرْعُ The seed-produce put forth its ears. (K.) A2: استلم الحَجَرَ He touched, (S, K,) or reached, (Mgh,) the stone, [meaning the Black Stone of the Kaabeh,] by kissing, or with the hand: (S, Mgh, K:) or he wiped it, or stroked it, with the hand: (Mgh:) or he kissed the stone: or he embraced it: (M:) and اِسْتَلْأَمَهُ signifies the same; (M, K;) but is not the original: (M:) accord. to ISk, the Arabs pronounced it with hemz, contr. to analogy; (Msb;) or it should not be pronounced with hemz, though some thus pronounce it, (S,) the original being استلم, (ISk, Msb,) because it is from سِلَامٌ [pl. of سَلِمَةٌ] signifying “ stones,” (ISk, S, * M, Msb, * [in the Mgh, from سَلِمَةٌ signifying “ a stone,” and in the Msb the pl. of سَلِمَةٌ is said to be سَلَامٌ, like كَلَامٌ,]) accord. to Sb, who says that it does not denote the act of taking; (M;) or, accord. to Sb, it is from السَّلَامُ, with fet-h, meaning “ salutation,” and it means the touching with the hand by way of salutation in order to obtain a blessing thereby: (TA:) but accord. to IAar, the original is with hemz, from المُلَآءَمَةُ, meaning الاِجْتِمَاعُ [“ the coming together,” &c., because denoting contact]. (Msb.) Abu-t-Tufeyl is related to have said, رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَطُوفُ عَلَى رَاحِلَتِهِ يَسْتَلِمُ بِمِحْجَنِهِ وَيُقَبِّلُ المِحْجَنَ [i. e. I saw the Apostle of God (may God bless and save him) circuiting around the Kaabeh, upon his camel, touching the Black Stone with his hooked staff, and kissing the hooked staff]. (TA.) The primary signification of الاِسْتِلَامُ is [said to be] The wiping, or stroking, the سَلِمَة, i. e. the stone: afterwards it was used in relation to other things, and one said اِسْتَلَمْتُ يَدَهَا, meaning I stroked, or kissed, her hand. (Har pp. 30 and 31.) b2: استلم الخُفُّ قَدَمَيْهِ means The boot rendered his feet soft [after he had been accustomed to walking barefoot]. (TA.) 10 إِسْتَسْلَمَ see 4, in the former half of the paragraph.

A2: استسلم ثَكَمَ الطَّرِيقِ He went upon the middle of the road, not missing it. (K, * TA. [In the CK, after واسْتَسْلَمَ انقادَ, for وثَكَمَ الطَّرِيقِ, meaning واستسلم ثَكَمَ الطَّرِيقِ, is erroneously put وتَسَلَّمَ الطَّرِيقَ, assigning to تسلّم a meaning belonging to استسلم.]) Q. Q. 2 تَمَسْلَمَ [from مُسْلِمٌ] He named, or called, himself a Muslim; or he named himself Muslim; his name having before been Mohammad: (M, K:) mentioned by Er-Ru-ásee. (M.) سَلْمٌ: see the next paragraph, in six places.

A2: Also A leathern bucket (دَلْوٌ) having one عُرْوَة [or loop-shaped handle], (T, S, M, K,) with which the waterer walks, like the buckets (دِلَآء) of the attendants of the camels or other beasts upon which water is drawn or which carry water, (T, TA,) or like the دَلْو of the water-carriers: (S, K:) expl. in the S as above as on the authority of AA; but IB says that the correct explanation is, having one عَرْقُوَة [or stick fixed across from one part of the brim to the to the opposite part, serving as a handle as well as to keep it from collapsing]: (TA:) of the masc. gender [whereas دَلْوٌ is fem.]: (M:) pl. [of pauc.] أَسْلُمٌ and [of mult.] سِلَامٌ, (M, K,) and Lh mentions as its pl. أَسَالِمُ, which is extr. [unless as a pl. pl., i. e. pl. of أَسْلُمٌ]. (M.) سِلْمٌ Peace, or reconciliation; as also ↓ سَلْمٌ; (S, M, Msb, K;) masc. and fem.; (S, Msb, K; *) and ↓ سَلَمٌ and ↓ سَلَامٌ are like سِلْمٌ [in signification]: (M: [the context there shows that the signification mentioned above is what is meant in this instance:]) or سِلْمٌ signifies the making peace, or becoming at peace or reconciled, with another or others; (Ham p. 80;) as also ↓ سَلْمٌ; and both are sometimes fem. as being syn. with مُصَالَحَةٌ. (L voce جَنَحَ, q. v.) In the saying of El-Aashà, أَذَاقَتْهُمُ الحَرْبُ أَنْفَاسَهَا

↓ وَقَدْ تُكْرَهُ الحَرْبُ بَعْدَ السِّلِمْ [War made them, or has made them, to taste its draughts, and verily war is disliked after peace], he has transferred the vowel of the م to the ل, in pausing; or it may be that he has inserted a kesreh in imitation of the preceding kesreh: it is not an instance like إِبِل, in the opinion of Sb; for in his opinion the latter is the only instance of its kind. (M.) It is said in a trad., respecting El-Hodeybiyeh, أَخَذَ ثَمَانِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ سِلْمًا, or ↓ سَلْمًا, or ↓ سَلَمًا, accord. to different relations, meaning [He took forty of the people of Mekkeh] peaceably: thus expl. by El-Homeydee, in his “ Ghareeb. ” (TA. [See also سَلَمٌ below.]) b2: Also i. q. ↓ سَلَامٌ, (S, K, TA,) as signifying Selfresignation, or submission; (TA; [and thus the latter is expl. in one place in the S;]) which is also a signification of ↓ سَلَمٌ: (S, M, K, TA:) and this is meant in the Kur [iv. 96], where it is said, لَسْتَ مُؤْمِنًا ↓ وَلَا تَقُولُوا لِمَنْ أَلْقَى إِلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامَ, (Bd, TA,) or ↓ السَّلَمَ, as some read, (Bd,) [i. e. and say not ye to him who offers to you submission, Thou art not a believer:] or ↓ السَّلَامَ here means the salutation of الإِسْلَام [by saying سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ]: (Bd, TA: *) or salutation, and submission by uttering the profession of الإِسْلَام; and so ↓ السَّلَمَ: (Jel:) [or the latter here means, simply, salutation; and this is app. what is meant by its being said that] السَّلَمُ is the subst. from التَّسْلِيمُ; (K;) [but accord. to SM,] this means the unreserved approval of what is decreed; and this is said to be meant by the reading السَّلَمَ mentioned above. (TA.) b3: And [hence] السِّلْمُ signifies also الإِسْلَامُ [as meaning The religion of the Muslims; because it is a religion of self-resignation, or submission]: (S, K:) this is meant in the Kur [ii. 204], where it is said, اُدْخُلُوا فِى السِّلْمِ كَافَّةً

[Enter ye into the religion of El-Islám wholly]; (S, Bd, Jel;) and so ↓ السَّلْمِ, as some there read; (Bd, Jel;) or both there mean submission and obedience to God: (Bd:) [and] ↓ السَّلَمُ [also] has the former meaning. (M.) A2: Also, (S, M, K,) and ↓ سَلْمٌ, (M,) A man, (S, K, TA,) [and] a woman, (M,) who makes peace, or is at peace, with another; (S, M, K;) and in like manner, a company of men (قَوْمٌ). (M.) This is said to be meant in the Kur [xxxix. 30], where it is said, وَرَجْلًا سِلْمًا لِرَجُلٍ, as some read, i. e. And a man who is at peace with respect to a man: (TA:) or سِلْمًا and ↓ سَلْمًا and ↓ سَلَمًا, three different readings, in the place of [the more common reading]

سَالِمًا, are all inf. ns. of سَلِمَ, used as epithets [syn. with سَالِمًا], or ذَا is suppressed before them. (Bd.) You say, أَنَا سِلْمٌ لِمَنْ سَالَمَنِى [I am one who is at peace with respect to him who is at peace with me]. (S, TA.) And a poet says, [using this word in two different senses, the latter of which has been mentioned above,] لِأَهْلِكِ فَاقْبَلِى سِلْمِى أَنَائِلُ إِنَّنِى سِلْمٌ [O Náïleh, (نَائِلُ being for نَائِلَةٌ, a woman's name, apocopated,) verily I am one who is at peace with respect to thy family, therefore accept thou my submission]. (TA. [It seems to be there indicated by the context that سلمى here means my peace, or reconciliation; which is less appropriate than the meaning that I have assigned to it.]) سَلَمٌ: see سَلَامٌ: and see also سِلْمٌ, in seven places. b2: Also, in buying or selling, (Msb,) the subst. from أَسْلَمَ فِى الشَّىْءِ and سَلَّمَ signifying

أَسْلَفَ, (M,) i. q. سَلَفٌ; (S, Msb, K;) i. e. Any money, or property, paid in advance, or beforehand, as the price of a commodity for which the seller has become responsible and which one has bought on description: (T and TA in art. سلف:) or payment for a commodity to be delivered at a certain [future] period with something additional to [the equivalent of] the current price at the time of such payment; this [transaction] being a cause of profit to him who makes such payment: (TA in that art.:) or a sort of sale in which the price is paid in advance, and the commodity is withheld, on the condition of description, to a certain [future] period: (S and O in that art., in explanation of سَلَفٌ:) but it is said in a trad. that the term سَلَمٌ as meaning سَلَفٌ was disliked; app. because the former is applied to obedience, and self-resignation, or submission, to God. (TA.) A2: And The making [one] captive. (K. [See 1, in the latter part of the paragraph.]) A3: And A captive; (K;) because he submits himself. (TA.) One says, أَخَذَهُ سَلَمًا, (M, TA, [in the TK بِالسَّلَمِ,]) He took him [a captive], (TA,) or made him captive, (M,) without war: (M, TA:) or he brought him in a state of submission, not resisting; and so, if wounded: (IAar, M, TA:) and thus El-Khattábee has expl. the phrase in the trad. respecting El-Hodeybiyeh cited above, voce سِلْمٌ. (TA.) A4: Also A sort of tree, (S, M, Msb, K,) [the mimosa flava of Forskål, who writes its Arabic name in Italic characters syllæm, and in Arabic characters سليم, (Flora Aegypt. Arab., p. cxxiii.,)] a species (M) of the [kind of thorny trees called] عِضَاه, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, TA, [not غَضَاة, as in the Lexicons of Golius and Freytag,]) the leaves whereof are the قَرَظ, with which skin is tanned: (TA:) AHn says, its branches are long, like rods; and it has no wood such as is used in carpentry, even if it grows large: it has slender, long thorns, grievous when they wound the foot of a man; and a yellow [fruit such as is termed] بَرَمَة [n. un. of بَرَمٌ, see this word, and see also حُبْلَةٌ,] which is the sweetest of the بَرَم in odour; and they tan with its leaves: and it is said, on the authority of the Arabs of the desert, that it has a yellow flower, containing a green grain (حَبَّة خَضْرَآء [or this may mean a grain of a dark, or an ashy, dustcolour]), of sweet odour, in which is somewhat of bitterness, and of which the gazelles are very fond: (M:) the n. un. is with ة: (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) and pl. أَسْلَامٌ, (M,) and سِلَامٌ is said by IB to be pl. of the n. un., like as إِكَامٌ is of أَكَمَةٌ. (TA.) [Hence,] ذَاتُ أَسْلَامٍ A land (أَرْض) that gives growth to the [trees called] سَلَم. (K.) See also سلَمَان.

سَلِمٌ Stones; (S, M;) as also ↓ سِلَامٌ: (M:) and ↓ سَلِمَةٌ [as n. un. of the former and sing. of the latter, (incorrectly written by Freytag, in one place, سَلَمَةٌ, and incorrectly said by him to be of the dial. of the people of Himyer,)] signifies a stone: (S, M, Mgh, Msb:) [or] the pl. [or quasipl. n.] of سَلِمَةٌ in this sense is ↓ سَلَامٌ, like كَلَامٌ in measure: (Msb:) or ↓ سَلِمَةٌ signifies stones; (K;) or hard stones; (TA;) and ↓ سِلَامٌ is its pl.: (K:) [said to be] so called because of their freedom (سلَامَة) from softness: (TA:) or this last signifies stones, the small thereof and the large; and they assign to it no sing.: (ISh, TA:) or سلام [probably meaning ↓ سَلَامٌ] is a quasi-pl. n.: (Aboo-Kheyreh, TA:) and it is also said to be a name for any broad stone. (TA.) See also سَلَمَان. A poet says, (namely, Bujeyr Ibn-'Anameh, IB, TA,) يَرْمِى وَرَائِى بِامْسَهْكِ وَامْسَهْمِ وَامْسَلِمَهْ [He casts from behind me (i. e. defends me) with the arrow and the stone]: this [usage of ام for ال] is of the dial. of [Teiyi and] Himyer. (S, TA.) السِّلِمْ for السِّلْمْ: see سِلْمٌ, second sentence.

سَلِمَةٌ: see سَلِمٌ, in two places: and سَلَمَان.

A2: Also A woman soft, or tender, in the أَطْرَاف [or fingers, or other extremities]. (K.) b2: And An old and weak she-camel. (IAar, TA in art. سد.) سَلْمَى A certain plant (K, TA) which becomes green in the [season called] صَيْف [app. here meaning spring]. (TA.) b2: أَبُو سَلْمَى The [species of lizard called] وَزَغ: (K:) or, some say, [as is said in the M,] ↓ أَبُو سَلْمَانَ. (TA.) b3: See also the next paragraph. b4: [In the CK, by a mistranscription, a meaning belonging to سُلَامَى is assigned to سَلْمَى.]

السَّلْمَآء, accord. to Aboo-Mis-hal, as meaning The earth, occurs in the prov., أَنْفٌ قِى المَآءِ وَاسْتٌ فِى السَّلْمَآءِ [A nose in the water and a rump on the earth]: and if this be correct, it may be derived from سلام [i. e. سِلَامٌ] meaning “ stones: ” and it may be originally ↓ السَّلْمَى, and lengthened for the sake of the rhyme. (Ham p. 214.) [But the reading commonly known is, أَنْفٌ فِى السَّلْمَآءِ وَاسْتٌ فِى المَآءِ.]

هُوَ سَلْمَانُ بَيْتِهِ He is the special, or particular, friend of his [another's] house; one who mixes with him much: from the saying of the Prophet, سَلْمَانُ مِنَّا أَهْلِ البَيْتِ [Selmán is of us, the people of the house]; referring to Selmán El-Fárisee. (Har p. 472.) b2: أَبُو سَلْمَانَ: see سَلْمَى. b3: Also A species of the [black beetles called] جِعْلَان [pl. of جُعَلٌ, q. v.]: (M:) or i. q. جُعَلٌ, (IAar, K,) or أَبُو جَعْرَان, with fet-h [app. a mistake for kesr] to the ج: (Kr, TA:) or the largest of the جِعْلَان: or a certain insect like the جُعَل, having a pair of wings: (TA:) or the male of the [black beetles called] خَنَافِس [pl. of خُنْفَسَآءُ, q. v.]. (IAar, TA in art. فرض.) سَلَمَان or سَلِمَان, accord. to different readings, occurs in a trad. of Ibn-'Omar, in which it is said, كَانَ يُصَلِّى عِنْدَ سَلَمَانٍ فِى طَرِيقِ مَكَّةَ [He used to pray at certain selem-trees, or certain stones, in the road of Mekkeh]: each may be a pl. [or rather a quasi-pl. n.]; the former, of ↓ سَلَمَةٌ, the “ tree so called; ” the latter, of ↓ سَلِمَةٌ, “ stones ” [or a “ stone: ” but both of these explanations are strange]. (TA.) سَلَامٌ, (S, K, TA,) in its primary acceptation, (TA,) is syn. with ↓ سَلَامَةٌ, (S, K, TA,) as is also ↓ سَلَمٌ, (S, [so in one of my copies, but omitted in the other copy,]) and signifies Safety, security, immunity, or freedom, from faults, defects, imperfections, blemishes, or vices, (S, * [mentioned in one only of my two copies, and there as relating peculiarly to the third word,] K, [in which it ostensibly relates peculiarly to the first word, but in the CK, by the omission of a و before it, it is made to relate only to the second word,] and TA, [accord. to which it relates to the first and second words, as it is well known to do,]) and from evils of any kind: (TA:) or [simply] safety, security, immunity, or freedom; as also ↓ سَلَامَةٌ: (Sb, M:) IKt says that these two words may be dial. vars. [syn. each with the other]; or the former may be pl. of the latter [or rather a coll. gen. n. of which the latter is the n. un.]: (M, TA:) and Suh says, in the R, that most of the lexicologists hold them to have one [and the same] meaning: but that if they considered the language of the Arabs, and the distinction, or limitation, denoted by the ة, they would see that between them is a great difference [inasmuch as the former has a large range of meaning which the latter has not, as will be seen from what follows]. (TA.) سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ is an announcement of the continuance of سَلَامَة [or safety, &c.]: (Bd in xiii. 24:) [it may therefore be rendered Safety, &c., be, or light and abide, on you; or, generally, peace be, or light and abide, on you; for] it means nothing disliked, or evil, shall befall you henceforth: (Bd in xvi. 34:) and سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ [may be rendered in like manner; for it virtually] means I will not do to thee anything that is disliked, or evil; (Bd and Jel in xix. 48;) nor say to thee henceforward what would annoy thee, or be disagreeable, or evil, to thee. (Bd ibid.) It may also be [rendered May safety, &c., or peace, be, or light and abide, on you; as] a prayer for سَلَامَة, to those to whom it is addressed, from the state in which they are at the time. (Bd in xxviii. 55.) [It is generally held that this salutation may not be used by, nor to, any but a Muslim.] In the beginning of an epistle, the approved practice is to write سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ, without the article ال; and in repeating it, at the end, to write it with that article. (Durrat el-Ghowwás, in De Sacy's Anthol. Gramm. Arabe, p. 72 of the Arabic text. [In the latter case, the general practice in the present day is to write simply وَالسَّلَام, suppressing عَلَيْكَ.]) In saluting the dead, one puts عَلَيْكَ first, saying, عَلَيْكَ سَلَامُ اللّٰهِ. (Ham p. 367.) You also say, مَا كَانَ كَذَا وَكَذَا ↓ لَا بِسَلَامَتِكَ [No, by thy safety, such and such things were not]. (S.) السُّلَامُ is also a name of God, (S, M, Msb, K,) [applied to Him in the Kur lix. 23, accord. to some for ذُو السَّلَامِ, i. e. ذُو السَّلَامَةِ,] because of his safety, or freedom, from defect, and imperfection, and cessation of existence; (IKt, M, TA;) or from variations, and as being the everlasting, who brings the creation to nought and will not come to nought; or, accord. to Suh in the R, He is so named [as being the Author of Safety, Security, &c.; i. e.] because He has rendered all his creatures safe, or free, from defectiveness, or unsoundness, and mankind and the jinn, or genii, from the betiding of injustice, or wrong, to them, from Him; and the expositors who assert that He is thus named because of his safety, or freedom, from imperfections, and evils of any kind, utter an unseemly saying, making سَلَامٌ to be syn. with ↓ سَالِمٌ, which latter applies only to him who is liable to evil of any kind, and who expects it, and then becomes safe, or free, from it. (TA.) دَارُ السَّلَامِ is an appellation of Paradise, (M, K,) [applied thereto in the Kur vi. 127 and x. 26,] as being the abode of everlasting safety, or security; (Zj, M, TA;) the abode of safety, or security, from evils of any kind, from death and decrepitude and diseases [&c.]: (TA:) or as being the abode of God. (M, TA.) b2: See also سِلْمٌ, in four places. b3: [As is there stated,] it signifies also Salutation, or greeting; (M, TA;) particularly the salutation of الإِسْلَام [by saying سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ or سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ, expl. above]; (Bd in iv. 96;) a subst. (S, Mgh, Msb, TA) from سَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ, (Msb,) [i. e.] from التُّسْلِيمُ, (S, Mgh, TA,) like كَلَامٌ from التَّكْلِيمُ. (Mgh. [See 2, third sentence.]) b4: In the saying in the Kur [xxv. 64], وَإِذَا خَاطَبَهُمُ الْجَاهِلُونَ قَالُوا سَلَامًا [And when the ignorant speak to them, they say, سَلَامًا], this last word signifies تَسَلُّمًا, (Sb, M,) or تَسَلُّمًا مِنْكُمْ [ for نَتَسَلَّمُ مِنْكُمْ تَسَلُّمًا We declare ourselves to be clear, or quit, of you], and مُتَارَكَهً لَلُمْ [ for نُتَارِكُكُمْ مُتَارَكَةً we relinquish you], (Bd,) [and means] there shall be neither good nor evil between us (Sb, M, Bd) and you: it is not the سلام that is used in salutation; for the verse was revealed at Mekkeh, and the Muslims had not then been commanded to salute the believers in a plurality of gods: (Sb, M:) [in iv. 88 of the Kur, which was promulgated afterwards, at ElMedeeneh, is a general command to return a salutation with a better or with the same; but the Sunneh prescribes that the salutation of سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ or سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ when addressed to a Muslim by one not a Muslim is to be returned only by saying وَعَلَيْكَ or وَعَلَيْكُمْ:] or the meaning in xxv. 64 is, they say a right saying, in which they are secure from harming and sinning. (Bd.) Sb asserts that Aboo-Rabee'ah used to say, إِذَا لَقِيتَ فُلَانًا فَقُلْ سَلَامًا, meaning تَسَلُّمًا [for أَتَسَلَّمُ مِنْكَ تَسَلُّمًا, i. e. When thou meetest such a one, say, I declare myself to be clear, or quit, of thee]: and he says that some of them said سَلَامٌ, meaning The case of me and thee is the [case of] being clear, or quit, each of the other; and the [case of] mutual relinquishing. (M.) [It is usual, in the present day, to say, اِفْعَلْ كَذَا وَالسَّلَام, meaning Do thou such a thing, and there will be an end of altercation between us.]

A2: See also سَلِيمٌ.

A3: Also A kind of trees; (S, M, Msb, K;) they assert that they are evergreen; nothing eats them; but the gazelles keep to them, and protect themselves by their shade, but do not hide among them; and they are not great trees, nor of the kind called عِضَاه: (AHn, M:) they are also called ↓ سِلَامٌ; (K;) or this is pl. of سَلَمَةٌ [n. un. of سَلَمٌ], which is of another kind; like as إِكَامٌ is pl. of أَكَمَةٌ: (IB, TA:) n. un. with ة. (S, M.) السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ was said to an Arab of the desert; and he replied, الجَثْجَاثُ عَلَيْكَ: and being asked, “ What is this reply? ” he answered, “They are two bitter trees: thou hast put upon me one, so I have put upon thee the other. ” (K.) A4: See also سَلِمٌ, in two places.

سِلَامٌ: see سَلِمٌ, in two places: A2: and the paragraph here next preceding, last sentence but two.

سَلِيمٌ i. q. ↓ سَالِمٌ, (S, M, K,) which means Safe, secure, or free, (Msb,) from evils of any kind; (K, Msb, TA;) applied to a man: (M:) pl. سُلَمَآءُ; (M, K, TA;) in some copies of the K سَلْمَى, like جَرْحَى pl. of جَرِيحٌ; (TA;) [but this is probably its pl. only when it is used in the sense of جَرِيحٌ or the like, as seems to be the case from what follows.] Also, (M,) applied to a heart: (S, M:) بِقَلْبٍ سَلِيمٍ, in the Kur xxvi. 89, means With a heart free from unbelief: (M, TA:) or, divested of corruptness, or unsoundness: (Er-Rághib, TA:) in the Kur xxxvii. 82, some say that it means with a grieving, or sorrowful, heart; from سَلِيمٌ in the sense here next following. (Bd.) b2: Also i. q. لَدِيغٌ [meaning Bitten by a serpent]; (S, M, K;) as also ↓ سَلَامٌ (S, K) and ↓ مَسْلُومٌ: (K:) app., (S,) as implying a good omen, of safety; (S, M;) or because the person is left (مُسْلَمٌ) to that [bane] which is in him: (IAar, S, * M:) and sometimes it is metaphorically used as meaning (tropical:) wounded: (M:) or it means wounded, at the point of death, (M, K,) as some say: (M:) pl. سَلْمَى. (M, and Ham p. 214.) A2: Also, (M, K,) of a horse, (M,) The part, of the hoof, that is between the أَشْعَر [or hair, or extremity of the skin, next the hoof], (M, TA,) or that is between the أَمْعَر [q. v.], (K,) but the former is the right, (TA,) and the interior of the hoof. (M, K, TA.) سَلَامَةٌ [the most usual inf. n. of سَلِمَ]: see سَلَامٌ, in three places.

(S, K.) سُلَامَى, a noun of the fem. gender, (Msb,) A certain bone that is in the فِرْسِن [q. v., here meaning foot] of the camel: (S, K:) this is said by A'Obeyd to be the primary signification: (S:) or the سُلَامَى of the camel are the bones of the فُرْسِن [or foot]: (M:) [for] سُلَامَى is used alike as sing. and pl., and sometimes it has also a pl., (S,) which is سُلَامَيَاتٌ: (S, M, K:) or it is a pl. [or rather a coll. gen. n.], of which the sing. [or n. un.] is سُلَامَيَةٌ, signifying the أَنْمَلَة [q. v.] of [any of] the fingers: (IAth, TA:) [but this is a strange explanation:] it is said that the last parts in which مُخّ [here meaning marrow or pulp and the like] remains in a camel when he has become emaciated are the سُلَامَى and eye; and when it has gone from these, he has none remaining: (S:) the pl. سُلَامَيَاتٌ, (S, TA,) or سُلَامَى, (M, Msb,) also signifies the bones of the أَصَابِع, (S, M,) so says Kh, and Zj adds that they are also called the قَصَب, (Msb,) of the hand and of the foot; (M;) [i. e., of the fingers and of the toes; and this seems to be the most common meaning, in relation to a human being; namely, the phalanges of the fingers and of the toes;] that are between every two joints [and what are beyond the extreme joints] of the أَصَابِع: accord. to Lth, the سلامى are the bones of the أَصَابِع [or fingers and toes] and the أَشَاجِع and the أَكَارِع, and are hard and compact bones like كِعَاب [pl. of كَعْبٌ]: (TA: [see the words that I have here left untranslated, for the senses in which they are here used are doubtful:]) accord. to IAar, (M,) certain small bones, of the length of the إِصْبَع [or finger], (M, K,) or nearly so, (M,) or less, (K,) of which there are four, or three, (M,) [or app., five, for the meaning here seems to be the metacarpal and metatarsal bones, to which the terms سُلَامَى and سُلَامَيَاتٌ are sometimes applied, (see أَشْجَعُ and مُشْظٌ,)] in the hand and in the foot, (K,) [i. e.] in each hand and foot: (M:) Ktr says that the سلاميات are the عُرُوق [app. a mistake for عِظَام i. e. bones] of the outer side of the hand and foot: (Msb:) سلامى is also said to signify any small hollow bone: and any bone of a human being: and ISh says that in every horse are six سلاميات [app. in the fore legs and the same in the hind legs; for he seems to mean that the term سلامى is applied to each of the pasternbones and to the coffin-bone; these three corresponding to the phalanges of a human being: see فَصٌّ]: (TA:) it is not allowable to write سلامى otherwise than with what is termed the short alif. (MF, TA.) A2: سُلَامَى, (M, K,) like سُكَّارَى, (K, TA, [in the CK like سَكْرٰى, which is shown to be wrong by a verse cited in the M and TA,]) signifies also The [south, or southerly, wind called] جَنُوب. (M, K.) سَلَامَانٌ A kind of tree, (S, M, K,) growing in soft, or plain, tracts: (M:) Az says, it is like the أَلَآء, which is a tree resembling the myrtle, which changes not in the midst of summer, and which has a produce resembling the head [or ear] of millet (ذُرَة), except that it is smaller than the الآء; tooth-sticks (مَسَاوِيك) are made from it; and its produce is like that of the الآء; and it grows in the sands and the deserts: (TA in art. الأ:) n. un. with ة. (M.) نَمْلُ سُلَيْمَانُ Red ants [lit. the ants of Solomon]. (TA voce أَحْوَى, in art. حو.) سُلَّمٌ A ladder, or a series of stairs or steps, syn. مِرْقَاةٌ, (M, K,) and دَرَجَةٌ, (M,) or مِعْرَاجٌ, (Msb,) upon which one ascends; (S, Mgh;) either of wood or of clay [&c.]: (Mgh:) said by Zj to be so called because it delivers thee (يُسَلِّمُكَ) to the place to which thou desirest to go, (Mgh, TA,) i. e., to some high place, and thou hopest for safety (السَّلَامَة) by means of it: (Er-Rághib, TA:) masc. and fem.; (Lth, M, Mgh;) [app., accord. to Lth and F, generally fem.; for] accord. to Lth, one says, هِىَ السُّلَّمُ and هُوَ السُّلَّمُ; (Mgh;) [and F says,] it is sometimes made masc.: (K:) pl. سَلَالِيمُ (S, Mgh, K) and سَلَالِمُ, (K,) [which latter is the original, for] the ى in سَلَالِيمُ is added by poetic license. (M, TA.) [Hence,] السُّلَّمُ (assumed tropical:) Certain stars, below [those called] العَانَةُ, on the right of them; (K;) as being likened to the سُلَّم [above-mentioned]. (TA.) b2: And The غَرْز [or stirrup of the camel's saddle] (S, K) is sometimes thus called [as being a means of mounting].

[See also an ex. voce شَاجِبٌ.]

b2: [Hence,] كَلِمَةٌ سَالِمَةُ العَيْنَيْنِ (tropical:) A good word or expression or sentence. (TA.) A2: The saying of J [in the S], (K,) in which he has followed his maternal uncle El-Fárábee, (TA,) that it signifies The portion of skin between the eye and the nose, is a mistake; (IB, K;) and his citation, as an authority, of the verse of 'AbdAllah Ibn-'Omar (K) in which he says, وَجِلْدَةُ بَيْنَ العَيْنِ وَالأَنْفِ سَالِمُ (TA,) is futile: (K:) for, as IB says, Sálim was the son of Ibn-'Omar, who, by reason of his love of him, thus makes him to be as the skin between his eyes and his nose: or, as MF says, the truth is, that the said verse is by Zuheyr, and Ibn-'Omar used it as a proverb: and [SM says], if this be correct, it strengthens the saying of J. (TA.) أَسْلَمُ [More, and most, safe or secure or free from evils of any kind]. You say, هٰذَا أَسْلَمُ مِنْ هٰذَا [This is more safe &c. than this]: and هٰذَا الأَسْلَمُ [This is the most safe &c.]; and هٰذِهِ السُّلْمَى. (Ham p. 214.)

Arabe, 2nd ed., iii. 480.) الإِسْلَامُ [inf. n. of 4, q. v. b2: It is the general term for The religion of Mohammad: differing from الإِيمَانُ, as shown above: see 4. b3: and hence, for أَهْلُ الإِسْلَامِ, or the like,] The Muslims, collectively. (M in art. بيض, &c.) إِسْلَامِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, الأِسْلَام as meaning the religion of Mohammad. b2: And particularly] A poet of the class next after the مُخَضْرَمُون and next before the مُوَلَّدُون.

(Mz ubi suprà, and Ibn-Khillikán in art. جَرِير.) b3: لَفْظٌ إِسْلَامِىٌّ A word, or phrase, introduced, or used in a new sense, on the occasion of the promulgation and establishment of the religion of الإِسْلَام, by means of the Kur-án &c.

(M.) مَسْلَمَةٌ: see what next precedes.

المُسَلَّم is said to be used in the sense of ↓ المُسْتَلَم in the saying of El-'Ajjáj, بَيْنَ الصَّفَا وَالكَعْبَةِ المُسَلَّممِ [Between Es-Safà and the Kaabeh of which the Black Stone is touched with the hand, or kissed: see 8].
