A2: ابهاهُ [He deprived it of beauty, or goodliness; the ا being a privative, as it often is, like the Greek a: this is probably the primary signification: (see Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 604:) and hence, b2: ] He made it empty, or vacant: (K:) or he rent it, or made holes in it: (JK:) or he rent it, or made holes in it, and rendered it vacant: (S:) namely, a tent. (JK, S, K.) Hence the saying, المِعْزَى

(O, TS, L, on the authority of As, in art. بهأ, q. v.) بَهْوٌ Ampleness; or an ample state, or condition: so in the saying, هُوَ فِى بَهْوٍ مِنَ العَيْشِ [He is in an ample state, or condition, of life]: and this is [said to be] the primary signification.

دِمَشْقُ الشّام:
بكسر أوله، وفتح ثانيه، هكذا رواه الجمهور، والكسر لغة فيه، وشين معجمة، وآخره قاف: البلدة المشهورة قصبة الشام، وهي جنة الأرض بلا خلاف لحسن عمارة ونضارة بقعة وكثرة فاكهة ونزاهة رقعة وكثرة مياه ووجود مآرب، قيل: سميت بذلك لأنهم دمشقوا في بنائها أي أسرعوا، وناقة دمشق، بفتح الدال وسكون الميم: سريعة، وناقة دمشقة اللحم: خفيفة، قال الزّفيان:
وصاحبي ذات هباب دمشق
قال صاحب الزيج: دمشق طولها ستون درجة، وعرضها ثلاث وثلاثون درجة ونصف، وهي في الإقليم الثالث، وقال أهل السير: سمّيت دمشق بدماشق بن قاني بن مالك بن أرفخشد بن سام بن نوح، عليه السلام، فهذا قول ابن الكلبي، وقال في موضع آخر: ولد يقطان بن عامر سالف وهم السلف وهو الذي بنى قصبة دمشق، وقيل: أول من بناها بيوراسف، وقيل: بنيت دمشق على رأس ثلاثة آلاف ومائة وخمس وأربعين سنة من جملة الدهر الذي يقولون إنه سبعة آلاف سنة، وولد إبراهيم الخليل، عليه السلام، بعد بنائها بخمس سنين، وقيل:
إن الذي بنى دمشق جيرون بن سعد بن عاد بن إرم ابن سام بن نوح، عليه السلام، وسماها إرم ذات العماد، وقيل: إن هودا، عليه السلام، نزل دمشق وأسس الحائط الذي في قبلي جامعها، وقيل: إن العازر غلام إبراهيم، عليه السلام، بنى دمشق وكان حبشيّا وهبه له نمرود بن كنعان حين خرج إبراهيم من النار، وكان يسمّى الغلام دمشق فسماها باسمه،
وكان إبراهيم، عليه السلام، قد جعله على كلّ شيء له، وسكنها الروم بعد ذلك، وقال غير هؤلاء:
سميت بدماشق بن نمرود بن كنعان وهو الذي بناها، وكان معه إبراهيم، كان دفعه إليه نمرود بعد أن نجّى الله تعالى إبراهيم من النار، وقال آخرون: سميت بدمشق بن إرم بن سام بن نوح، عليه السلام، وهو أخو فلسطين وأيلياء وحمص والأردنّ، وبنى كلّ واحد موضعا فسمي به، وقال أهل الثقة من أهل السير: إن آدم، عليه السلام، تكان ينزل في موضع يعرف الآن ببيت انات وحوّاء في بيت لهيا وهابيل في مقرى، وكان صاحب غنم، وقابيل في قنينة، وكان صاحب زرع، وهذه المواضع حول دمشق، وكان في الموضع الذي يعرف الآن بباب الساعات عند الجامع صخرة عظيمة يوضع عليها القربان فما يقبل منه تنزل نار تحرقه وما لا يقبل بقي على حاله، فكان هابيل قد جاء بكبش سمين من غنمه فوضعه على الصخرة فنزلت النار فأحرقته، وجاء قابيل بحنطة من غلّته فوضعها على الصخرة فبقيت على حالها، فحسد قابيل أخاه وتبعه إلى الجبل المعروف بقاسيون المشرف على بقعة دمشق وأراد قتله، فلم يدر كيف يصنع فأتاه إبليس فأخذ حجرا وجعل يضرب به رأسه فلما رآه أخذ حجرا فضرب به رأس أخيه فقتله على جبل قاسيون، وأنا رأيت هناك حجرا عليه شيء كالدم يزعم أهل الشام أنه الحجر الذي قتله به، وأن ذلك الاحمرار الذي عليه أثر دم هابيل، وبين يديه مغارة تزار حسنة يقال لها مغارة الدم، لذلك رأيتها في لحف الجبل الذي يعرف بجبل قاسيون.
وقد روى بعض الأوائل أن مكان دمشق كان دارا لنوح، عليه السلام، ومنشأ خشب السفينة من جبل لبنان وأنّ ركوبه في السفينة كان من عين الجرّ من ناحية البقاع، وقد روي عن كعب الأحبار:
أن أوّل حائط وضع في الأرض بعد الطوفان حائط دمشق وحرّان، وفي الأخبار القديمة عن شيوخ دمشق الأوائل: أن دار شدّاد بن عاد بدمشق في سوق التين يفتح بابها شأما إلى الطريق وأنه كان يزرع له الريحان والورد وغير ذلك فوق الأعمدة بين القنطرتين قنطرة دار بطّيخ وقنطرة سوق التين، وكانت يومئذ سقيفة فوق العمد، وقال أحمد بن الطيب السرخسي: بين بغداد ودمشق مائتان وثلاثون فرسخا.
وقالوا في قول الله عز وجل: وَآوَيْناهُما إِلى رَبْوَةٍ ذاتِ قَرارٍ وَمَعِينٍ 23: 50، قال: هي دمشق ذات قرار وذات رخاء من العيش وسعة ومعين كثيرة الماء، وقال قتادة في قول الله عز وجل والتين قال: الجبل الذي عليه دمشق، والزيتون: الجبل الذي عليه بيت المقدس، وطور سينين: شعب حسن، وهذا البلد الأمين: مكة، وقيل: إرم ذات العماد دمشق، وقال الأصمعي: جنان الدنيا ثلاث: غوطة دمشق ونهر بلخ ونهر الأبلّة، وحشوش الدنيا ثلاثة:
الأبلّة وسيراف وعمان، وقال أبو بكر محمد بن العباس الخوارزمي الشاعر الأديب: جنان الدنيا أربع: غوطة دمشق وصغد سمرقند وشعب بوّان وجزيرة الأبلّة، وقد رأيتها كلها وأفضلها دمشق، وفي الأخبار: أنّ إبراهيم، عليه السلام، ولد في غوطة دمشق في قرية يقال لها برزة في جبل قاسيون، وعن النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم، أنه قال: إنّ عيسى، عليه السلام، ينزل عند المنارة البيضاء من شرقي دمشق، ويقال: إنّ المواضع الشريفة بدمشق التي يستجاب فيها الدعاء مغارة الدم في جبل قاسيون،
ويقال: إنها كانت مأوى الأنبياء ومصلّاهم، والمغارة التي في جبل النّيرب يقال: إنها كانت مأوى عيسى، عليه السلام، ومسجدا إبراهيم، عليه السلام، أحدهما في الأشعريّين والآخر في برزة، ومسجد القديم عند القطيعة، ويقال: إن هنا قبر موسى، عليه السلام، ومسجد باب الشرقي الذي قال النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلّم: إن عيسى، عليه السلام، ينزل فيه، والمسجد الصغير الذي خلف جيرون يقال إنّ يحيى بن زكرياء، عليه السلام، قتل هناك، والحائط القبلي من الجامع يقال إنه بناه هود، عليه السلام، وبها من قبور الصحابة ودورهم المشهورة بهم ما ليس في غيره من البلدان، وهي معروفة إلى الآن.
قال المؤلف: ومن خصائص دمشق التي لم أر في بلد آخر مثلها كثرة الأنهار بها وجريان الماء في قنواتها، فقلّ أن تمرّ بحائط إلّا والماء يخرج منه في أنبوب إلى حوض يشرب منه ويستقي الوارد والصادر، وما رأيت بها مسجدا ولا مدرسة ولا خانقاها إلّا والماء يجري في بركة في صحن هذا المكان ويسحّ في ميضأة، والمساكن بها عزيزة لكثرة أهلها والساكنين بها وضيق بقعتها، ولها ربض دون السور محيط بأكثر البلد يكون في مقدار البلد نفسه، وهي في أرض مستوية تحيط بها من جميع جهاتها الجبال الشاهقة، وبها جبل قاسيون ليس في موضع من المواضع أكثر من العبّاد الذين فيه، وبها مغاور كثيرة وكهوف وآثار للأنبياء والصالحين لا توجد في غيرها، وبها فواكه جيدة فائقة طيبة تحمل إلى جميع ما حولها من البلاد من مصر إلى حرّان وما يقارب ذلك فتعمّ الكل، وقد وصفها الشعراء فأكثروا، وأنا أذكر من ذلك نبذة يسيرة، وأما جامعها فهو الذي يضرب به المثل في حسنه، وجملة الأمر أنه لم توصف الجنة بشيء إلا وفي دمشق مثله، ومن المحال أن يطلب بها شيء من جليل أعراض الدنيا ودقيقها إلا وهو فيها أوجد من جميع البلاد، وفتحها المسلمون في رجب سنة 14 بعد حصار ومنازلة، وكان قد نزل على كلّ باب من أبوابها أمير من المسلمين فصدمهم خالد بن الوليد من الباب الشرقي حتى افتتحها عنوة، فأسرع أهل البلد إلى أبي عبيدة بن الجرّاح ويزيد بن أبي سفيان وشرحبيل ابن حسنة، وكان كل واحد منهم على ربع من الجيش، فسألوهم الأمان فأمنوهم وفتحوا لهم الباب، فدخل هؤلاء من ثلاثة أبواب بالأمان، ودخل خالد من الباب الشرقي بالقهر، وملكوهم وكتبوا إلى عمر ابن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، بالخبر وكيف جرى الفتح، فأجراها كلها صلحا.
وأما جامعها فقد وصفه بعض أهل دمشق فقال:
هو جامع المحاسن كامل الغرائب معدود إحدى العجائب، قد زوّر بعض فرشه بالرخام وألّف على أحسن تركيب ونظام، وفوق ذلك فصّ أقداره متفقة وصنعته مؤتلفة، بساطه يكاد يقطر ذهبا ويشتعل لهبا، وهو منزه عن صور الحيوان إلى صنوف النبات وفنون الأغصان لكنها لا تجنى إلا بالأبصار ولا يدخل عليها الفساد كما يدخل على الأشجار والثمار بل باقية على طول الزمان مدركة بالعيان في كلّ أوان، لا يمسها عطش مع فقدان القطر ولا يعتريها ذبول مع تصاريف الدهر، وقالوا: عجائب الدنيا أربع: قنطرة سنجة ومنارة الإسكندرية وكنيسة الرّها ومسجد دمشق، وكان قد بناه الوليد بن عبد الملك بن مروان، وكان ذا همّة في عمارة المساجد، وكان الابتداء بعمارته في سنة 87، وقيل سنة 88، ولما أراد بناءه جمع نصارى دمشق وقال لهم: إنّا نريد أن نزيد في مسجدنا كنيستكم، يعني كنيسة يوحنا، ونعطيكم 30- 2 معجم البلدان دار صادر
كنيسة حيث شئتم وإن شئتم أضعفنا لكم الثمن، فأبوا وجاءوا بكتاب خالد بن الوليد والعهد وقالوا:
إنّا نجد في كتبنا أنه لا يهدمها أحد إلا خنق، فقال لهم الوليد: فأنا أول من يهدمها، فقام وعليه قباء أصفر فهدم وهدم الناس ثم زاد في المسجد ما أراده واحتفل في بنائه بغاية ما أمكنه وسهل عليه إخراج الأموال وعمل له أربعة أبواب: في شرقيه باب جيرون وفي غربيه باب البريد وفي القبلة باب الزيادة وباب الناطفانيين مقابله وباب الفراديس في دبر القبلة، وذكر غيث بن علي الأرمنازي في كتاب دمشق على ما حدثني به الصاحب جمال الدين الأكرم أبو الحسن علي بن يوسف الشيباني، أدام الله أيامه:
أن الوليد أمر أن يستقصى في حفر أساس حيطان الجامع، فبينما هم يحفرون إذ وجدوا حائطا مبنيّا على سمت الحفر سواء فأخبروا الوليد بذلك وعرّفوه إحكام الحائط واستأذنوه في البنيان فوقه، فقال: لا أحب إلا الإحكام واليقين فيه ولست أثق بإحكام هذا الحائط حتى تحفروا في وجهه إلى أن تدركوا الماء فإن كان محكما مرضيّا فابنوا عليه وإلا استأنفوه، فحفروا في وجه الحائط فوجدوا بابا وعليه بلاطة من حجر مانع وعليها منقور كتابة، فاجتهدوا في قراءتها حتى ظفروا بمن عرّفهم أنه من خط اليونان وأن معنى تلك الكتابة ما صورته: لما كان العالم محدثا لاتصال أمارات الحدوث به وجب أن يكون له محدث لهؤلاء كما قال ذو السنين وذو اللحيين فوجدت عبادة خالق المخلوقات حينئذ أمر بعمارة هذا الهيكل من صلب ماله محبّ الخير على مضي سبعة آلاف وتسعمائة عام لأهل الأسطوان فإن رأى الداخل إليه ذكر بانيه بخير فعل والسلام، وأهل الأسطوان:
قوم من الحكماء الأول كانوا ببعلبك، حكى ذلك أحمد بن الطيب السرخسي الفيلسوف، ويقال: إن الوليد أنفق على عمارته خراج المملكة سبع سنين وحملت إليه الحسبانات بما أنفق عليه على ثمانية عشر بعيرا فأمر بإحراقها ولم ينظر فيها وقال: هو شيء أخرجناه لله فلم نتبعه، ومن عجائبه أنه لو عاش الإنسان مائة سنة وكان يتأمله كل يوم لرأى فيه كل يوم ما لم يره في سائر الأيام من حسن صنائعه واختلافها، وحكي أنه بلغ ثمن البقل الذي أكله الصنّاع فيه ستة آلاف دينار، وضج الناس استعظاما لما أنفق فيه وقالوا: أخذ بيوت أموال المسلمين وأنفقها فيما لا فائدة لهم فيه، قال: فخاطبهم وقال بلغني أنكم تقولون وتقولون وفي بيت مالكم عطاء ثماني عشرة سنة إذا لم تدخل لكم فيها حبة قمح، فسكت الناس، وقيل: إنه عمل في تسع سنين، وكان فيه عشرة آلاف رجل في كل يوم يقطعون الرخام، وكان فيه ستمائة سلسلة ذهب، فلما فرغ أمر الوليد أن يسقّف بالرصاص فطلب من كل البلاد وبقيت قطعة منه لم يوجد لها رصاص إلا عند امرأة وأبت أن تبيعه إلا بوزنه ذهبا فقال: اشتروه منها ولو بوزنه مرتين، ففعلوا فلما قبضت الثمن قالت: إني ظننت أن صاحبكم ظالم في بنائه هذا، فلما رأيت إنصافه فأشهدكم أنه لله! وردّت الثمن، فلما بلغ ذلك إلى الوليد أمر أن يكتب على صفائح المرأة لله ولم يدخله فيما كتب عليه اسمه، وأنفق على الكرمة التي في قبلته سبعين ألف دينار، وقال موسى بن حمّاد البربري: رأيت في مسجد دمشق كتابة بالذهب في الزجاج محفورا سورة:
أَلْهاكُمُ التَّكاثُرُ 102: 1 إلى آخرها، ورأيت جوهرة حمراء ملصقة في القاف التي في قوله تعالى: حَتَّى زُرْتُمُ الْمَقابِرَ 102: 2، فسألت عن ذلك: فقيل لي إنه كانت للوليد بنت وكانت هذه الجوهرة لها فماتت فأمرت أمها أن تدفن
هذه الجوهرة معها في قبرها، فأمر الوليد بها فصيرت في قاف المقابر من: أَلْهاكُمُ التَّكاثُرُ حَتَّى زُرْتُمُ الْمَقابِرَ 102: 1- 2، ثم حلف لأمها أنه قد أودعها المقابر فسكتت.
وحكى الجاحظ في كتاب البلدان قال: قال بعض السلف ما يجوز أن يكون أحد أشدّ شوقا إلى الجنة من أهل دمشق لما يرونه من حسن مسجدهم، وهو مبنيّ على الأعمدة الرخام طبقتين، الطبقة التحتانية أعمدة كبار والتي فوقها صغار في خلال ذلك صورة كلّ مدينة وشجرة في الدنيا بالفسيفساء الذهب والأخضر والأصفر، وفي قبليّه القبّة المعروفة بقبة النسر، ليس في دمشق شيء أعلى ولا أبهى منظرا منها، ولها ثلاث منائر إحداها، وهي الكبرى، كانت ديدبانا للروم وأقرت على ما كانت عليه وصيّرت منارة، ويقال في الأخبار: إن عيسى، عليه السلام، ينزل من السماء عليها، ولم يزل جامع دمشق على تلك الصورة يبهر بالحسن والتنميق إلى أن وقع فيه حريق في سنة 461 فأذهب بعض بهجته، وهذا ما كان في صفته، قال أبو المطاع بن حمدان في وصف دمشق:
سقى الله أرض الغوطتين وأهلها، ... فلي بجنوب الغوطتين شجون
وما ذقت طعم الماء إلّا استخفني ... إلى بردى والنّيربين حنين
وقد كان شكّي في الفراق يروعني، ... فكيف أكون اليوم وهو يقين؟
فو الله ما فارقتكم قاليا لكم، ... ولكنّ ما يقضى فسوف يكون
وقال الصّنوبري:
صفت دنيا دمشق لقاطنيها، ... فلست ترى بغير دمشق دنيا
تفيض جداول البلّور فيها ... خلال حدائق ينبتن وشيا
مكللة فواكههنّ أبهى ال ... مناظر في مناظرنا وأهيا
فمن تفاحة لم تعد خدّا، ... ومن أترجّة لم تعد ثديا
وقال البحتري:
أمّا دمشق فقد أبدت محاسنها، ... وقد وفى لك مطريها بما وعدا
إذا أردت ملأت العين من بلد ... مستحسن وزمان يشبه البلدا
يمسي السحاب على أجبالها فرقا، ... ويصبح النبت في صحرائها بددا
فلست تبصر إلا واكفا خضلا، ... أو يانعا خضرا أو طائرا غردا
كأنما القيظ ولّى بعد جيئته، ... أو الربيع دنا من بعد ما بعدا
وقال أبو محمد عبد الله بن أحمد بن الحسين بن النّقّار يمدح دمشق:
سقى الله ما تحوي دمشق وحيّاها، ... فما أطيب اللذات فيها وأهناها!
نزلنا بها واستوقفتنا محاسن ... يحنّ إليها كلّ قلب ويهواها
لبسنا بها عيشا رقيقا رداؤه، ... ونلنا بها من صفوة اللهو أعلاها
وكم ليلة نادمت بدر تمامها ... تقضّت، وما أبقت لنا غير ذكراها
فآها على ذاك الزمان وطيبه، ... وقلّ له من بعده قولتي واها!
فيا صاحبي إمّا حملت رسالة ... إلى دار أحباب لها طاب مغناها
وقل ذلك الوجد المبرِّح ثابت، ... وحرمة أيام الصّبا ما أضعناها
فإن كانت الأيام أنست عهودنا، ... فلسنا على طول المدى نتناساها
سلام على تلك المعاهد، إنها ... محطّ صبابات النفوس ومثواها
رعى الله أياما تقضّت بقربها، ... فما كان أحلاها لديها وأمراها!
وقال آخر في ذمّ دمشق:
إذا فاخروا قالوا مياه غزيرة ... عذاب، وللظامي سلاف مورّق
سلاف ولكن السراجين مزجها، ... فشاربها منها الخرا يتنشق
وقد قال قوم جنة الجلد جلّق، ... وقد كذبوا في ذا المقال ومخرقوا
فما هي إلا بلدة جاهليّة، ... بها تكسد الخيرات والفسق ينفق
فحسبهم جيرون فخرا وزينة، ... ورأس ابن بنت المصطفى فيه علّقوا
قال: ولما ولي عمر بن عبد العزيز، رضي الله عنه، قال: إني أرى في أموال مسجد دمشق كثرة قد أنفقت في غير حقها فأنا مستدرك ما استدركت منها فردت إلى بيت المال، أنزع هذا الرخام والفسيفساء وأنزع هذه السلاسل وأصيّر بدلها حبالا، فاشتدّ ذلك على أهل دمشق حتى وردت عشرة رجال من ملك الروم إلى دمشق فسألوا أن يؤذن لهم في دخول المسجد، فأذن لهم أن يدخلوا من باب البريد، فوكل بهم رجلا يعرف لغتهم ويستمع كلامهم وينهي قولهم إلى عمر من حيث لا يعلمون، فمروا في الصحن حتى استقبلوا القبلة فرفعوا رؤوسهم إلى المسجد فنكس رئيسهم رأسه واصفرّ لونه، فقالوا له في ذلك فقال: إنّا كنّا معاشر أهل رومية نتحدث أن بقاء العرب قليل فلما رأيت ما بنوا علمت أن لهم مدّة لا بدّ أن يبلغوها، فلما أخبر عمر بن عبد العزيز بذلك قال: إني أرى مسجدكم هذا غيظا على الكفار، وترك ما همّ به، وقد كان رصّع محرابه بالجواهر الثمينة وعلّق عليه قناديل الذهب والفضة.

(Az, TA.) b2: رَمَكَتِ المَاشِيَةُ, (O,) or الإِبِلُ, (K,) inf. n. as above, (O,) The cattle were confined, (O,) or the camels kept constantly, (K,) at the water, (O, K,) and were fed with fodder. (O.) b3: رَمَكَ فِى الطَّعَامِ, aor. and inf. n. as above, [app. He kept constantly to the food;] he loathed nothing of the food: and so رَجَنَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. رُجُونٌ: (L, TA:) both mentioned by Lh. (TA in art. رجن.) A2: رَمَكَ, said of a man, also signifies He was, or became, lean, or emaciated, and what was in his hands went away. (O, TA. [See also 9: and see رَمَكَةٌ, as applied to a man.]) b2: [It seems also that this verb is used in a similar sense in relation to a beast; like ارمكّ said of a camel: for it is immediately added in the O and TA without any explanation, that one also says, ↓ هٰذِهِ دَابَّةٌ رَامِكَةٌ, as though meaning This is a lean beast: and رَمَكَتْ, inf. n. رُمُوكٌ, as though meaning It was, or became, lean.]4 أَرْمَكْتُهُ I made him to remain, stay, dwell, or abide, in a place, (S, K,) not quitting it. (K.) b2: And ارمك الإِبِلَ He (a pastor) kept the camels constantly at the water, and fed them with fodder. (TA.) 9 ارمكّ He was, or became, of the colour termed رُمْكَةٌ: said of a camel in this sense [and in another expl. in what follows]. (S, K.) A2: It (a thing, Ibn-'Abbád, O) was, or became, thin, or slender. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) And He (a camel) was, or became, lean, lank, light of flesh; slender; or lean, and lank in the belly; and emaciated. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K. [In the CK, نَهِكَ is erroneously put for نُهِكَ.]) 10 اِسْتَرْمَكَ القَوْمُ (tropical:) The people were deemed ignoble; (K, TA;) as being likened to the رَمَكَة. (TA.) رَمَكٌ: see رَمَكَةٌ. b2: In the saying of Ru-beh, يَرْبِضُ فِى الرَّوْثِ كَبِرْذَوْنِ الرَّمَكْ [That lies down upon his breast in the dung of horses, or similar beasts, like the jade, or hack, of the رَمَك], AA says, الرمك, here, is from the Pers\.

رَمَهْ [which means a “ herd," ” “ flock,” “ troop,” or the like]; and he adds that the people's saying that it means الرَّمَكَة is a mistake. (O, TA. [Perhaps, however, AA knew not رَمَكٌ as a coll. gen. n. of which رَمَكَةٌ is the n. un.; for as such it seems to me more reasonable to regard it in this instance.]) رُمْكَةٌ A certain colour of camels; accord. to A 'Obeyd, a dun colour; i. e. a كٌمْتَة [or brown hue] so intense as to have in it a blackness: (S:) thus explained by As: (TA:) or, in the colours of camels, brownness; i. e. redness intermixed with blackness: (Kr, TA:) or a colour more dusky, or dingy, than that which is termed زُرْقَة [q. v.]: (Msb:) or the colour of ashes: (K:) or وُرْقَةٌ [which is a colour like that of ashes] inclining to blackness: or, as some say, دُونَ الوُرْقَةِ [less intense than what is termed وَرقة]: (TA:) it sometimes has for its pl. رُمُكٌ, with two dammehs. (ISd, TA.) رَمَكَةٌ A mare: and [particularly] a بِرْذَوْنَة [or mare of mean breed], (Lth, Mgh, K,) the female of the بَرَاذِين, (S, Msb,) that is taken for breeding: (Lth, Mgh, K:) pl. رِمَاكٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb,) accord. to rule, (Mgh,) and, رَمَكَاتٌ, (S,) and أَرْمَاكٌ, (Fr, S, Mgh,) formed on the supposition of the elision of the ة, (Mgh,) or this is a pl. pl., and the pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] is ↓ رَمَكٌ. (K.) b2: Also (assumed tropical:) A weak man. (K.) رَامَكٌ: see the next paragraph, in two places.

رَامِكٌ Remaining, staying, dwelling, or abiding, in a place, (Msb, K,) not quitting: or especially, when fatigued, or wearied, or distressed. (K.) A2: See also 1, last sentence.

A3: Also, and ↓ رَامَكٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the former of which is the more usual, or more approved, (TA,) A certain thing, black, (S, Msb, K,) like pitch, (Msb,) that is mixed with musk, (S, Msb, K,) and is then called (يُجْعَلُ) musk. (Msb.) [Freytag, as on the authority of the K, in which nothing more is said respecting it than what I have given above, describes it thus: “ Res ex aliis rebus composita, nempe atramento sutorio, mali Punici cortice, gummi Arabico aliisque rebus, quibus admisceri solet muscus. ”] A poet says, (S,) namely, Khalaf Ibn-Khaleef El-Akta', (O, TA,) إِنَّ لَكَ الفَضْلَ عَلَى صُحْبَتِى

وَالمِسْكُ قَدْ يَسْتَصْحِبُ الرَّامَكَا [Verily thou hast such excellence as renders thee above my companionship; but musk sometimes unites with رامك]. (S, O.) b2: [↓ رَامَكٌ, from the Pers\. رَامَكْ, is also the name of A certain astringent medicine, used as a remedy for dysentery &c. In the printed edition of the “ Kánoon ” of Ibn-Seenà (Avicenna), book ii. p. 253, it is erroneously written رمك.]

أَرْمَكُ Of the colour termed رُمْكَةٌ: (S, Msb, K:) applied to a camel: fem. رَمْكَآءُ. (S, Msb.) The رمكآء is said by Honeyf-el-Hanátim, who was one of the most skilled of the Arabs respecting camels, to be the most beautiful of she-camels. (TA.) The fem. is also applied, tropically, to a woman. (Th, TA.) b2: A poet says, [applying it to dust,] وَالخَيْلُ تَجْتَابُ الغُبَارَ الأَرْمَكَا [And the horses, or horsemen, cleave the dark brown, or ash-coloured, &c., dust]. (TA.) b3: And it is said in a trad., [but to what it relates I know not,] The name of the higher, or highest, land is الرَّمْكَآءُ; said by IAth to be fem. of الأَرْمَكُ. (TA.)

(S, K.) and سَمَّتْهُ الهَامَّةُ The هامّة [or venomous reptile or the like] smote him with its poison. (M.) b2: [Hence, perhaps, He suggested it, إِلَيْهِ to him: a signification mentioned by Freytag, but without any indication of the authority.] b3: [And, app., It perforated it; transpierced it; or pierced, or passed, through it: for it is said that] مَسَمٌّ may be an inf. n. of the verb [signifying نَفَذَ], and may also signify a place of نُفُوذ.

(M.) You say, سَمَّ النِّعْمَةَ He so appropriated the benefit, or bounty. (K.) And سَمَّتِ النِّعْمَةُ The benefit, or bounty, was, or became, particular, peculiar, or special, as to its object: (S, K:) the verb being intrans. as well as trans. (K.) El-'Ajjáj says, هُوَ الَّذِى أَنْعَمَ نُعْمَى عَمَّتْ عَلَى الَّذِينَ أَسْلَمُوا وَسَمَّتْ (S,) or the latter hemistich is عَلَى البِلَادِ رَبُّنَا وَسَمَّتْ (M,) [He is the Being who has bestowed bounty that has been general and that has been particular upon those who have become Muslims, or upon the countries, namely, our Lord]: he means that it has reached all.

So in the saying of Aboo-Sahm, أَخَالِدُ لَا يَرْضَى عَنِ العَبْدِ رَبُّهُ إِذَا جَدَّ بِالشَّيْخِ العُقُوقُ المُصَمِّمُ [O Khálid, his Lord will not approve of the servant, or man, (meaning the son,) when cutting, or biting, disobedience to a parent distresses the old man]. (L.) A6: جَدَّ, aor. ـِ inf. n. جَدٌّ and جِدٌّ, It (a house, or tent, بَيْت) dripped, or let fall drops. (K.) 2 جدّد, inf. n. تَجْدِيدٌ: see 1.

A2: See also 4, in three places.

A3: تجديد also signifies The making [or weaving] stripes of different colours in a garment. (KL.) 3 جادّهُ فِى الأَمْرِ, (S, L, K, *) inf. n. مُجَادَّةٌ, (L,) i. q. حَاقَّهٌ (S, L) or حَاقَقَهُ (K) [He contended with him respecting a thing, each of them asserting his right therein: so accord. to explanations of حاقّهُ in the lexicons: but I think that the meaning intended here is, he acted seriously, or in earnest, with him in the affair; and this is confirmed by its being immediately added in the TA, after حاققه, “and أَجَدَّ ” signifies “ حَقَّقَ, as above mentioned: ” see جَدَّفِى الأَمْرِ expl. by حَقَّقَ as contr. of هَزَلَ]. Also He exerted his full effort, or endeavour, or energy, with him in the affair. (So accord. to an explanation of the inf. n., مجادَة, in the KL.) 4 اجدّ النَّخْلُ The palm-trees attained to the time for the cutting off of the fruit. (S, A, * L, Msb, K.) b2: [Hence, perhaps,] أَجَدَّتْ قَرُنِى مِنْهُ I (myself, TA) relinquished, or forsook, him, or it. (K.) A2: اجدّهُ, and ↓ استجدّهُ, (S, A, L, K,) and ↓ جدّدهُ, (S, L, K,) He made it new; (S, A, L, K;) namely, a thing, (S,) or a garment: (A, TA:) or he put it on, or wore it, new; namely, a garment. (TA.) One says to him who puts on a new garment, أَبْلِ وَأَجِدَّ وَاحْمَدِ الكَاسِى [Wear out, and make, or put on, new, and praise the Clother, meaning God]. (S.) And you say, بَهِىَ بَيْتُ فُلَانٍ فَأَجَدَّ بَيْتًا مِنْ شَعَرٍ [The tent of such a one was, or became, rent, or pierced with holes; therefore he made a new tent of haircloth]. (S.) And الأَمْرَ ↓ جدّد, and اجدّهُ, and ↓ استجدّهُ, He originated, or innovated, the thing, or affair; or did it newly, or for the first time (Msb.) And الوُضُوْءَ ↓ جدّد (tropical:) [He renewed the ablution termed وضوء], and العَهْدَ (tropical:) [the compact, or contract, or covenant, &c.]. (TA.) b2: اجدّ فُلَانٌ أَمْرَهُ بِذٰلِكَ Such a one established, or settled, firmly his affair, or case, thereby, or therein: so says As, and he cites the following verse: أَجَدَّ بِهَا أَمْرًا وَأَيْقَنَ أَنَّهُ لَهَا أَوْخْرَي كَالطَّحِينَ تُرَابُهَا [He established, or settled, firmly his case thereby, or therein, and knew certainly that he was for it, (app. meaning a war, or battle, حَرْب, which is fem.,) or for another whereof the dust would be like flour]: Aboo-Nasr says, It has been related to me that he said, اجدَ بها امرًا means اجدّ أَمْرَهُ بِهَا; [and so this phrase is explained in the K;] but the former explanation I heard from himself: (L:) or this phrase means أَجَدَّ أَمْرُهُ بِهَا [so in two copies of the S, app., (assumed tropical:) his affair, or case, became easy, or practicable, thereby, like ground termed جَدَد, which is easy to walk, or travel, upon; see the next sentence]; امر being put in the accus. case as a specificative, like عَيْنًا in the phrase قَرِرْتُ بِهِ عَيْنًا, meaning قَرَّتْ بِهِ عَيْنِى. (S.) A3: اجدّ also signifies It (a road) was, or became, what is termed جَدَد [i. e. hard, or level, &c.]. (S, K.) And اجدّت لَكَ الأَرْضُ The ground hath become to thee free from soft places, and clear to thy view. (TA.) b2: Also He walked along, or traversed, what is termed جَدَد. (K.) And اجدّ القَوْمُ The people, or company of men, came to what is so termed: (S:) and ascended upon the surface (جَدِيد) of the ground: or went upon sand such as is termed جَدَد. (TA.) A4: See also 1, in three places.5 تجدّد [originally It became cut, or cut off. b2: And hence,] It (an udder) lost, or became devoid of, its milk: (S, K:) and [in like manner]

↓ جُدَّ, aor. ـَ inf. n. جَدَدٌ, it, (a breast, and an udder,) became dry. (A Heyth, TA.) b3: Hence also, [It was newly made; as though newly cut off from the web;] said of a garment: (TA:) and it (a thing, S, A) became new: (S, A, K:) and it (a thing, or an affair,) originated; was originated, or innovated; or was done newly, or for the first time: and sometimes ↓ استجدّ is used intransitively [in the same senses]. (Msb.) [Also (assumed tropical:) It (an action, as, for instance, ablution, and a compact, or the like,) was renewed. See جَدَّدَ as syn. with أَجَدَّ.]10 إِسْتَجْدَ3َ see 4, in two places: A2: and see also 5.

جَدٌّ Fortune, or particularly good fortune, syn. حَظٌّ, (S, A, Mgh, L, K,) and بَخْتٌ, (S, A, L, K,) in the world, or in wordly circumstances; (TA;) advance in the world, or in worldly circumstances: (Mgh:) pl. [of mult.] جُدُودٌ (S) and [of pauc.] أَجْدَادٌ and أَجُدٌّ. (TA.) Yousay, فُلَانٌ ذُو جَدٍّ فِى كَذَا Such a one is possessed of good fortune in such a thing. (L.) And it is said in a trad. respecting the day of resurrection, وَإِذَا أَصْحَابُ الجَدِّ مَحْبُوسُونَ And lo, the people who were possessed of good fortune and riches in the world were imprisoned. (L.) and in a prayer, (L,) لَا يَنْفَعُ ذَا الجَدِّ مِنْكَ الجَدُّ The good worldly fortune of him who is possessed of such fortune will not profit him, (Mgh, L,) in the world to come, (L,) in lieu of Thee; (Mgh, L; *) i. e., of obedience to Thee: (Mgh, and Mughnee in art. مِنْ:) or in lieu of the good fortune that cometh from Thee: or, as some say, will not defend him from Thee. (Mughnee ubi suprà. [See also another explanation below.]) Hence, أَجَدَّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ [or أَجَدِّكَ]; and, accord. to some, وَجَدِّكَ: see جِدٌّ. b2: One's lot in life; and the means of subsistence that one receives from the bounty of God. (L, K.) One says, لِفُلَانٍ فِى

هٰذَا الأَمْرِ جَدٌّ Such a one has in this thing, or state of affairs, means of subsistence. (A'Obeyd, L.) b3: Richness; competence, or sufficiency; or the state of being in no need, or of having no wants, or of having few wants. (S, L, Msb.) لا ينفع ذا الجدّ منك الجدّ, [explained above, is said to mean] Riches, &c., will not profit the possessor thereof with Thee; for nothing will profit him but acting in obedience to Thee: منك here signifies عِنْدَكَ. (S, Msb.) b4: Greatness, or majesty; (Mujáhid, S, Mgh, Msb, K;) accord. to some, specially of God: (TA:) so in the Kur lxxii. 3: (S, TA:) or his freedom from all wants or the like; syn. غِنًى. (S.) Hence, تَعَالَى جَدُّكَ, (Mgh, TA,) in a trad. respecting prayer, (TA,) Exalted be thy greatness, or majesty. (Mgh, * TA.) b5: See also أَجَدَّكَ, as an interrogative phrase, voce جِدٌّ.

A2: Also, (S, K,) and ↓ مَجْدُودٌ, (S, A, Mgh, K,) and ↓ جَدِيدٌ, (S, Msb, K,) and ↓ جَدِّيٌّ, (S,) and ↓ جُدٌّ, and ↓ جُدِّيٌّ, the last two with damm, (K,) applied to a man, Fortunate; or possessed of good fortune; (S, A, Mgh, Msb;) or possessed of good worldly fortune: (TA:) or possessing great fortune, or great good fortune: (K:) [the words here given from the S are there coupled with synonyms of the same form, thus; جَدِيدٌ ↓ حَظِيظٌ, and مَحْظُوظٌ ↓ مَجْدُودق, and جَدٌّ حَظُّ, and حَظِّىٌّ ↓ جَدِّيٌّ; on the authority of ISk:] ↓ جُدٌّ, with damm, as an epithet applied to a man, is said by Sb to be syn. with مَجْدُودٌ; and its pl. is جُدٌّونَ only. (L.) A3: Also جَدُّ, A grandfather; the father's father, and the mother's father: (S, Msb, K:) and (assumed tropical:) a higher ascendant; an ancestor: (Msb:) and ↓ جَدَّةٌ a grandmother; the father's mother, and the mother's mother: (K:) [and (assumed tropical:) a female ancestor:] pl. of the former, أَجْدَادٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and جُدُودٌ and جُدُودَةٌ: (K:) and of the latter, جَدَّاتٌ. (TA.) Hence, accord. to some, وَجَدِّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ: see جِدٌّ.

A4: See also جُدَّةٌ: b2: and see جَدِيدٌ.

جُدٌّ: see جَدٌّ, in two places.

A2: See also جُدَّةٌ. b2: Also The side (جَانِب) of anything. (K.) A3: And A well in a place where is much herbage, or pasture: (S, Msb, K:) a well abounding with water; (K;) [and] so ↓ جُدْجُدٌ; (KL;) but A'Obeyd says that this is not known: (L:) and, contr., a well containing little water: a scanty water, or water little in quantity: a water at the extremity of a [desert such as is called] فَلَاة: (K:) an old water: (Th, K:) an old well: (KL:) pl. (in all these senses, TA) أَجْدَادٌ. (Msb, TA.) جِدٌّ [accord. to some an inf. n., but accord. to others a simple subst., (see جَدَّ,)] Seriousness, or earnestness, contr. of هَزْلٌ, (S, A, Msb, K,) in speech. (Msb.) Hence, ثَلَاثٌ جِدُّهُنَّ جِدٌّ وَهَزْلُهُنَّ جِدٌّ [There are three things in relation to which what is serious is serious and what is jesting is serious]: a saying of Mohammad, whereby he forbade a man's divorcing and emancipating and marrying and then retracting, saying “ I was jesting; ” as was customary in the time of paganism. (Msb.) أَجِدَّكَ and ↓ أَجَدَّكَ signify the same; (S;) but the former is the more chaste; (TA;) جِدّ and جَدّ being thus used only as prefixed nouns: (S, K:) As says that the meaning is, أَبِجِدٍّ مِنْكَ هٰذَا [Does this proceed from thee in seriousness, or in earnest?]; and that جِدّ is put in the accus. case because of the rejection of the [prep.] ب: AA says that the meaning is, مَا لَكَ أَجِدًّا مِنْكَ [What aileth thee? Doth it proceed from thee in seriousness, or in earnest?]; and that جدّ is put in the accus. case as an inf. n.: Th says that the phrase as it occurs in poetry is أَجِدَّكَ, with kesr: (S:) but when it occurs with وَ [in the place of أَ, or with أَ in the sense of وَ, as a particle denoting an oath,] it is ↓ وَجَدِّكَ [or أَجَدِّكَ], with fet-h: (S, K:) yon say, وَجَدِّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ, (K, in the CK وَجَدَّكَ,) meaning, By thy grandfather, do not [such a thing]: or by thy fortune, or good fortune, do not: (TA:) also, when you say, أَجِدَّكَ لَا تَفْعَلْ, [or أَجِدِّكَ, for أَ (q. v.) is substituted for a particle of swearing, as in أَللّٰهِ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ,] the meaning is, I adjure thee by thy truth, (Lth, K,) and by thy seriousness, or earnestness, (Lth, TA,) do not: and when you say, لَا تَفْعَلْ ↓ أَجَدَّكَ, [or أَجَدِّكَ,] the meaning is, I adjure thee by thy fortune, or good fortune, do not: (Lth, K:) Aboo- 'Alee Esh-Shalowbeenee asserts that it implies the signification of an oath. (MF.) In the phrase اجدّك لا تَفْعَلُ, AAF says, we may consider لا تفعل as put in the place of a denotative of state; or the phrase may be originally اجدّك أَنْ لَا تَفْعَلَ, ان being suppressed, and its government annulled: [therefore it may be rendered, in the former case, Is it with seriousness on thy part, thou doing such a thing? and in the latter case, Is it with seriousness on thy part that thou will not do such a thing? i. e. dost thou mean seriously that thou will not do it? or in this case, اجدّك may be used as a form of adjuration in one of the senses explained above, and لَا تَفْعَلُ may mean, that thou do not such a thing; or اجدّك may mean وَجَدَّكَ, (explained above, and so in the three exs. below,) and لَا تَفْعَلُ, thou wilt not do it:] and, as AHei says, there is here a nice point, which is this; that the noun [meaning the pronoun] to which جدّ is prefixed should agree in person with the verb which follows it; so that one should say, اجدِّى لَا أُكْرِمُكَ, and اجدّكَ لَا تَفْعَلُ, and اجدّهُ لَا يَزُورُنَا; because جدّ is an inf. n. corroborating the proposition that follows it. (MF.) b2: Also, [and in this case, likewise, accord. to some an inf. n., but accord. to others a simple subst., (see, again, جَدَّ,)] A striving, labour, or toil; exertion of one's self, or of one's power or efforts or endeavours or ability; vigorousness, strenuousness, laboriousness, diligence, studiousness, sedulousness, earnestness, or energy; painstaking, or extraordinary painstaking; (S, L, Msb, K;) in affairs, (S,) or in an affair. (Msb, K.) Hence, جِدًّا [meaning In a great, or an extraordinary, degree; greatly, much, exceedingly, or extraordinarily; very; very greatly, or very much; extremely]; as in the phrase, (Msb,) فُلَانٌ مُحْسِنٌ جِدًّا [Such a one is beneficent in a great, or an extraordinary, degree; very, exceedingly, or extremely, beneficent]: you should not say جَدًّا. (S, Msb. * [In my copy of the Msb, it is محسن جدّا بالفتح: but the context shows that there is an omission here, and that, after جدّا, we should read, as in the S, وَلَا تَقُلْ جَدًّا.]) جِدًّا [in a phrase of this kind] is put in the accus. case as an inf. n. [of which the verb is understood; so that, in the ex. given above, the proper meaning is, يَجِدُّ فِى الإِحْسَانِ جِدًّا striving in beneficence with a great striving]; because it is not from the same root as the preceding word, nor is it identical with it [in meaning]. (L.) You say also, فِى هٰذَا خَطَرٌ جِدَّ عَظِيمٍ, meaning عَظِيمٌ جِدًّا [(assumed tropical:) In this is a very, or an extremely, great danger, or risk]. (S.) And هٰذا العَالِمُ جِدَّ العَالِمِ This is the learned man, the extremely [or the very] learned man. (L.) And هٰذَا عَالِمٌ جِدَّ عَالِمٍ This is a learned man, an extremely [or a very] learned man. (L, * K.) b3: Also (tropical:) Haste. (S, L, K, TA.) So in the phrase فُلَانٌ عَلَى جِدِّ أَمْرٍ (tropical:) Such a one is in haste in an affair. (S, L, TA.) A2: Also Executed seriously, or in earnest, [in which there is no jesting,] and excessive; syn. مُحَقَّقٌ مُبَالَغٌ فِيهِ [meaning مُحَقَّقٌ فِيهِ وَمُبَالَغٌ فِيهِ; (see جَدَّ فِى أَمْرِهِ;) جِدٌّ thus used as an epithet having an intensive signification because it is originally an inf. n., or as some say, a simple subst.]: (L, K:) applied in this sense to a punishment: (L:) and also applied to a pace. (K in art. نص.) A3: See also جُدَّةٌ: b2: and see جَدِيدٌ.

جَدَّةٌ: see جَدٌّ, near the end of the paragraph.

جُدَّةٌ The bank, or side, or a river; as also جِدَّةٌ and ↓ جِدٌّ (IAth, L, K) and ↓ جُدٌّ (IAth, Mgh, L) and ↓ جَدٌّ, (Mgh, L, K,) accord. to some, but correctly جُدٌّ; so called because cut off from the river, or because cut by the water, in like manner as it is called سَاحِلٌ because it is abraded by the water: (Mgh:) or the part of a river that is near the land; as also ↓ جِدَّةٌ: (L:) and the shore of the sea: (MF:) accord. to As, جدّة is an arabicized word from the Nabathean كدّ. (L.) b2: The stripe, or streak, that is on the back of the ass, differing from his general colour. (S, A, * K.) And (tropical:) A streak (Fr, S, K, TA) in anything, (TA,) as in a mountain, (Fr, S,) differing in colour from the rest of the mountain, (S,) white and black and red; (Fr, TA;) as also in the sky: (A, TA:) pl. جُدَدٌ, (Fr, S,) occurring in the Kur xxxv. 25; (S;) where some read جُدُدٌ, pl. of ↓ جديدة [app. جَدِيدَةٌ], which is syn. with جُدَّةٌ; and some, جَدَدٌ [q. v.]. (Bd.) b3: A sign, or mark, syn. عَلَامَةٌ, (Th, K,) of, or in, anything. (Th, TA.) b4: A beaten way, marked with lines [cut by the feet of the men and beasts that have travelled along it]: (Az, L:) or a road, or way: pl. جُدَدٌ: (Msb:) and جُدُودٌ, also, [app. another pl. of جُدَّةٌ,] signifies paths, or tracks, forming lines upon the ground. (Az, L.) See also جَادَّةٌ. b5: [Hence, app., but accord. to the S from the same word as signifying “a streak,”] رَكِبَ جُدَّةً مِنَ الأَمْرِ, (S, A, TA,) or جُدَّةَ الأَمْرِ, (K,) (tropical:) He set upon a way, or manner, of performing the affair: (A:) or he formed an opinion respecting the affair, or case. (Zj, S, A, K.) b6: See also جِدَّةٌ.

جِدَّةٌ: see جُدَّةٌ, in two places: b2: and see جَدِيدٌ. b3: Also A rag; or piece torn off from a garment; and so ↓ جُدَّةٌ: thus in the saying, مَا عَلَيْهِ جِدَّةٌ and جُدَّةٌ [There is not upon him a rag]. (K.) b4: A collar upon the neck of a dog: (Th, L, K:) pl. جُدَدٌ [like لُحًى pl. of لِحْيَةٌ, or perhaps a mistake for جِدَدٌ]. (L.) جَدَدٌ Hard ground: (S:) or hard level ground: (Har p. 522:) [see also جَدْجَدٌ:] or rough level ground: (K:) or rough ground: or level ground: (TA:) or a level and spacious tract of land; a tract such as is called صَحْرَآء, and such as is called فَضَآء, containing no soft place in which the feet sink, nor any mountain, nor any [hill such as is called] أَكَمَة; sometimes wide, and sometimes of little width: (ISh:) [and] a conspicuous road: (Bd in xxxv. 25:) pl. أَجْدَادٌ. (ISh.) It is said in a prov., مَنْ سَلَكَ الجَدَدَ أَمِنَ العِثَارَ [He who walks along hard, or hard and level, ground is secure from stumbling]; (S, TA;) meaning, he who pursues the course marked out by common consent is secure from stumbling. (TA.) and مَكَانٌ جَدَدٌ occurs in a trad., meaning Level ground. (TA.) b2: See also جَدِيدٌ. b3: Also Sand that is thin, or fine, (K, TA,) and sloping down. (TA.) b4: And A thing resembling a سِلْعَة [or ganglion] in the neck of a camel. (K.) جَدَادٌ and ↓ جِدَادٌ The cutting off of the fruit of palm-trees. (S, * A, * L, Msb, * K. *) You say, هٰذَا زَمَنُ الجَدَادِ and الجِدَادِ [This is the time, or season, of the cutting off of the fruit of the palmtrees]. (S, A, Msb. *) Some say that جداد signifies particularly [as above,] the cutting off [of the fruit] of palm-trees; and جذاذ, the cutting off of all fruits, in a general sense: others say that they signify the same. (TA.) b2: Also The time, or season, of the cutting off of the fruit of palm-trees. (S, * L.) You say جَدَادٌ and جِدَادٌ, like صَرَامٌ and صِرَامٌ, and قَطَافٌ and قِطَافٌ; (Ks, S;) whence it seems as though the measures فَعَالٌ and فِعَالٌ were uniformly applicable to every noun signifying the time of the action; such nouns being likened to أَوَانٌ and إِوَانٌ. (S.) جِدَادٌ: see جَدَادٌ, and جَادٌّ.

جَدُودٌ, (ISk, S, A, K,) or جَدُودَةٌ, (L,) Having little milk, (ISk, S,) or not from any imperfection; (L;) applied to a ewe, (ISk, S, K,) but not to a she-goat; the epithet مَصُورٌ being used in the latter case: (ISk, S:) or a ewe or she-goat having no milk; as also ↓ جَدَّآءُ: (A:) pl. جَدَائِدُ (S, L) and جِدَادٌ. (L.) b2: Also A fat she-ass: pl. جِدَادٌ. (Az, K.) جَدِيدٌ, of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, [i. e. ↓ مَجْدُودٌ,] Cut, or cut off. (S, Msb.) A poet says, أَبِى حُبِّى سُلَيْمَى أَنْ يَبِيدَا وَأَمْسَى حَبْلُهَا خَلَقًا جَدِيدَا [My love of Suleymà hath refused to perish; but her cord (i. e. her tie of affection to me) hath become worn out and cut]: (S:) [as جديد signifies “new” more commonly than "cut,"] this verse appears as though it involved a contradiction. (MF.) b2: Applied to a garment, or a piece of cloth [sufficient for a garment or the like], Newly cut off [from the web] by the weaver: (S, K:) and so (without ة, S) applied to a مِلْحَفَة; (S, A;) thus applied to a fem. n. because syn. with ↓ مَجْدُودَةٌ; (S, ISd;) or, accord. to Sb, because by ملحفة in this case is meant إِزَار, and for a like reason in like cases; (Ham p. 555;) but one also says جَدِيدَةٌ; (ISd;) and accord. to some, جديد is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ, and therefore the ة is regularly affixed to it: (Ham ubi suprà:) the pl. is جُدُدٌ (Mbr, Th, S, A, K) and جُدَدٌ; (Az, A'Obeyd, Mbr;) but the former is the more common. (TA.) b3: and hence, (L,) applied to a garment, (L, TA,) or a thing, (S, Msb,) New; contr. of قَدِيمٌ, (Msb,) or contr. of خَلَقٌ; (S, L;) from جِدَّةٌ as contr. of بِلًى: (K:) pl. [of pauc.] أَجِدَّةٌ and [of mult.] جُدُدٌ and جُدَدٌ. (L.) You say, أَصْبَحَتْ خَلَقُهُمْ جُدُدًا, a phrase mentioned by Lh, meaning خُلْقَانُهُمْ جُدُدًا [i. e. Their old worn-out garments became replaced by new]: or جُدُدًا may be here put for جَدِيدًا. (L.) b4: And hence, (TA,) الجَدِيدَانِ and ↓ الأَجَدَّانِ The night and the day; (S, Msb, K;) because they never become impaired by time. (TA.) Yousay, لَا أَفْعَلُهُ مَا اخْتَلَفَ الجَدِيدَانِ and ↓ الأَجَدَّانِ [I will not do it while the day and the night succeed each other]: (S:) or مَا كَرَّ الجَدِيدَانِ and الأَجَدَّانِ [while the day and the night return time after time: i. e., ever]. (A.) b5: Hence likewise, جَدِيدٌ also signifies A thing of which one has had no knowledge. (L.) b6: And hence, (L,) الجَدِيدُ signifies Death: (K:) or is applied as an epithet to death, in the dial. of Hudheyl. (L.) Accord. to Akh and El-Mugháfis El-Báhilee, جَدِيدُ المَوْتِ means The commencement of death. (L.) A2: Also The face, or surface, of the earth, or ground; [as though it were cut;] (S, K, TA;) and so ↓ جَدَدٌ, and ↓ جِدَّةٌ, and ↓ جَدٌّ, (K,) and ↓ جِدٌّ. (TA.) A3: See also جَدٌّ, in two places.

جُدَادَةٌ What is cut off from the roots, or eradicated, of, or from, palm-trees &c. (Lh, TA.) جَدِيدَةٌ The kind of pad, or stuffed thing, (رِفَادَةٌ,) and the felt, stuck, or attached, beneath the two boards of a horse's saddle: there are two such things, called جَدِيدَتَانِ: (S:) or the جديدتان consist of the felt that is stuck, or attached, in the inner side of a horse's and of a camel's saddle: (L:) but جديدة thus applied is a post-classical word: the [classical] Arabs say جَدْيَةٌ, (S,) or, as in J's own handwriting, جَدِيَّةٌ. (So in the margin of a copy of the S.) A2: See also جُدَّةٌ.

جَدِّىٌّ: see جَدٌّ, in two places.

بن

ى1 بَنَاهُ, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـِ (M, Msb,) and بَنُىَ, but the former is the more common, (M,) [or rather the only form commonly known,] inf. n. بِنَآءٌ (T, S, M, Mgh, K) and بِنًا (T, and TA as from the M [but it is not in the transcript of the M in the TT]) and بَنْىٌ and بُنْيَانٌ and بِنْيَةٌ and بنَايَةٌ, (M, K,) He built it; framed it; constructed it; contr. of هَدَمَهُ; (M, K;) namely, a house, (S, Mgh, Msb,) or tent, (S, * Msb,) &c.; (Msb;) as also ↓ ابتناه, (S, M, Msb, K,) and ↓ بنّاهُ; (M, K;) or the last has teshdeed given to it to denote muchness, or frequency, or repetition, of the action, or its application to many objects; and hence you say, بنّى قُصُورًا [He built palaces, or pavilions: or he raised them high: see the pass. part. n. below]. (S, TA.) AHn speaks of a kind of plank as being used فِى بِنَآءِ السُّفُنِ [in the construction of ships]: but بِنَآءٌ is originally used only in relation to that which does not grow; as stone, and clay, and the like. (M.) You say also, بَنَى أَرْضًا, for بَنَى فِى أَرْضٍ [He built in, or upon, land]. (Mgh.) b2: [Hence,] بَنَى عَلَى أَهْلِهِ, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) or عَلَى امْرَأَتِهِ, (Mgh,) and بَنَى بِهَا also, (M, Mgh, Msb, K,) accord. to IDrd (Mgh, Msb) and IJ, (M,) and occurring in traditions and elsewhere, though said in the S to be vulgar, (IAth, MF,) and said to be so by ISk, (T, Msb,) and by some said to be not allowable, (M,) but the former is the more chaste, (Msb,) inf. n. بِنَآءٌ; (S, TA;) as also ↓ ابتنى, (K,) i. e. ابتنى عليها, (ISk, Msb,) or ابتنى بِهَا, (IJ, M,) He had his wife conducted to him on the occasion of the marriage: (ISk, T, S, Msb, K:) or he went in to his wife [for the first time]: (Mgh, Msb:) originating from the fact that the bridegroom used, on that occasion, to pitch a tent for her, (ISk, T, S, Mgh, Msb,) a new tent, (Mgh, Msb,) and furnish it with what was requisite, (Msb,) or a new tent was set up for him, (Mgh, Msb,) in honour of him. (Msb.) [See also بَيْتٌ.] b3: بِنَايَةٌ is sometimes used in relation to nobility: (M, K:) and the verb thus used is بَنَى, as above, (T, M,) having [also] بِنًى for its inf. n., (IAar, T,) and بِنَآءٌ; held by many to be tropical, but by some to be proper. (MF.) Lebeed says, فَسَمَا إِلَيْهِ كَهْلُهَا وَ غُلَامُهَا فَبَنَى لَنَا رَفِيعًا سَمْكُهُ (M) And He (namely, God,) hath built for us a house of nobility of lofty pitch, and its (the tribe's) middle-aged and its youth have risen to it: i. e., all of them have attained to high degrees. (EM, p. 180.) b4: بَنَى بَدَنَهُ It (food) fattened his body, (K,) and made it large: (TA:) and بَنَى لَحْمَهُ, (T, M, K,) aor. ـِ (TA,) inf. n. بِنَآءٌ, (M,) or بَنْىٌ, (TA,) It (food) made his flesh to grow, (T, M, K,) and to become large.

(M.) b6: [بَنَى كَلِمَةً, inf. n. بِنَآءٌ, He formed a word. b7: and He made a word indeclinable, so as to end invariably with a quiescent letter or with a particular vowel.] بِنَآءُ كَلِمَةٍ [when the former word is considered as the inf. n. of the pass. form بُنِىَ, generally] signifies A word's keeping always the same mode of termination, ending with a quiescent letter or with a particular vowel, not by reason of any governing word: (M, K:) as though the word resembled a fixed, immoveable building. (M.) [You say, بُنِيَتْ عَلَى السُّكُونِ It was made indeclinable, with a quiescent letter for its termination; and عَلَى الفَتْحِ with fet-h for its termination; &c. b8: And in like manner you say, بَنَى القَصِيدَةَ عَلَى البَآءِ, &c., He made the قصيدة to have ب, &c., for its rhyme-letter, or its chief rhyme-letter.]

A2: بَنَتِ القَوْسُ عَلَى وَتَرِهَا The bow clave to its string (T, S, K) so that it (the latter) almost broke. (T, S.)

(T.) It is said in a prov., المِعْزَي تُــبْهِى وَلَا تُبْنِى

[Goats rend, or make holes, and render vacant, and do not afford materials for fabricating tents]; i. e., they do not yield hair of which a tent is fabricated; (T, S; *) for the tents of the Arabs [of the desert] are of the kind called طِرَاف, made of skin, and أَخْبِيَة, made of wool or of camels' fur, and not of شَعَر [by which is especially meant goats' hair], (S,) or, as is found in the handwriting of Aboo-Sahl, of wool or of skin: (TA:) or the meaning is, goats rend tents, or pierce them with holes, by their leaping upon them, (T and S in art. بهو,) so that they cannot be inhabited, (S in that art.,) and do not aid in the fabrication of tents; for the goats of the Arabs of the desert have short hair, not long enough to be spun; whereas the goats of the cold countries, and of the people of the fertile regions, have abundant hair, and of this the Akrád [or Kurdees] fabricate their tents. (T.) b2: [Hence,] He introduced him to his wife [on the occasion of his marriage]: whence the saying of 'Alee, مَتَى تُبْنيِنِى, accord. to IAth properly meaning مَتَى تَجْعَلُنِى أَبْنِى بِزَوْجَتِى

[When wilt thou make me to have my wife conducted to me? or, to go in to my wife?]. (TA.) 5 تَبَنَّتْ, said of a woman sitting, (T, TA,) She became like a tent (T, IAth, K, * TA) of the kind called مِبْنَاةٌ, (T, TA,) i. e., a قُبَّة of skin; by reason of her fatness, (T, IAth, TA,) and largeness, (T, TA,) or fleshiness: (IAth, TA:) or she parted her legs; as though from مِبْنَاة, i. e. a قُبَّة of skin, which, when pitched, is spread out by the ropes: so this woman, sitting cross-legged, spread apart her legs. (T, TA.) And تبنّى, said of a camel's hump, It became fat. (M.) A2: تبنّاهُ He adopted him as a son: (S, K:) or he asserted him to be, or claimed him as, a son: (M:) and تبنّى بِهِ signifies the same. (Zj, TA.) 8 ابتنى: see 1, in three places.

A2: Also It became built, framed, or constructed. (Msb.) بِنْتٌ; pl. بَنَاتٌ: fem. of اِبْنٌ, which see, in three places.

بُنًى: see بِنَآءٌ.

بِنًى: see بِنَآءٌ.

بَنَاةُ اللَّحْمِ, (IB, TA,) the former of which words is incorrectly written in the K بنات, (TA,) A girl whose flesh has been made to grow and become large: (IB, K, TA: [in the CK, مَبْنِيَّةٌ is erroneously put for مَبْنِيَّتُهُ:]) or, accord. to a learned scholiast, this is a mistake of IB, and the meaning is sweet in odour; i. e. sweet in the odour of the flesh. (TA.) بَنَاتٌ: pl. of بِنْتٌ; and sometimes of اِبْنٌ: see اِبْنٌ.

بَنُونَ: pl. of اِبْنٌ, which see below.

بَنَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, a son; rel. n. of اِبْنٌ; as also ↓ اِبْنِىٌّ [with ا when connected with a preceding word]: (S, Msb:) the latter is allowable, (Msb,) and used by some. (S.) And Of, or relating to, a daughter; rel. n. of بِنْتٌ; as also ↓ بِنْتِىٌّ: (S, M, Msb, K:) the latter accord. to Yoo; (S, M;) but rejected by Sb. (TA.) b2: Also Of, or relating to, what are termed بُنَيَّاتُ الطَّرِيقِ, i. e., the small roads that branch off from the main road. (S.) بُنْيَانٌ and بُنْيَانَةٌ: see what next follows.

بِنَآءٌ [originally an inf. n.: (see 1, first sentence:) then applied to A building; a structure; an edifice;] a thing that is built, or constructed; pl. أَبْنِيَةٌ, and pl. pl. أَبْنِيَاتٌ: (M, K:) and ↓ بُنْيَانٌ [also] has this meaning; (Msb;) [and is likewise originally an inf. n.;] or this signifies a wall; syn. حَائِطٌ; (S;) or it may be a pl., [or rather a coll. gen. n., meaning buildings, structures, edifices, or walls,] of which the sing. [or n. un.] is ↓ بُنْيَانَةٌ, and as such may be masc. and fem: (Er-Rághib, TA:) ↓ بِنْيَةٌ and ↓ بُنْيَةٌ also signify [the same as بِنَآءٌ as explained above; or] a thing that one has built, framed, or constructed; (M, K;) or, accord. to some, the former of these two relates to objects of the senses, and the latter to objects of the mind, to glory or honour or the like; (MF, TA;) and their pls. are ↓ بِنًى and ↓ بُنًى; (K;) or, accord. to the S and M, these two appear to be sings.; (TA;) [or they may be pls. or sings.; for J says that] البُنَى is like البِنَى; one says, بُنْيَةٌ and بُنًى, and بِنْيَةٌ and بِنًى; (S;) [and ISd says that] بِنْيَةٌ and بُنْيَةٌ signify as above, and so بِنًى and بُنًى; or, accord. to Aboo-Is-hák, بِنًى is pl. of بِنْيَةٌ; or it may be used by poetic licence for بِنَآءٌ: (M:) accord. to IAar, بِنًى signifies buildings, or structures, of clay: and also [tents] of wool; (T;) and بِنَآءٌ likewise signifies a tent (M, TA) in which the Arabs of the desert dwell, in the desert, (TA,) such as is called خِبَآء; (M, TA; *) and طِرَافٌ and قُبَّةٌ and مِضْرَبٌ are names applied to dwellings of the same kind; (TA;) pl. أَبْنِيَةٌ: (M:) the moveable dwelling, such as the خَيْمَة and مِظَلَّة and فُسْطَاط and سُرَادِق and the like, is called بِنَآءٌ as being likened to the building of burnt bricks and of clay and of gypsum. (M.) [See also بَنِيَّةٌ.]

b2: Also The roof, or ceiling, of a house or chamber or the like; as in the Kur [ii. 20], الَّذِى جَعَلَ لَكُمُ الأَرْضَ فِراشًا وَ السَّمَآءَ بِنَآءً [Who hath made for you the earth as a bed, and the heaven as a roof, or ceiling]: (S, [but wanting in some copies,] and Jel:) so says Az: (S:) or the meaning here is, as a tent (قُبَّة) pitched over you. (Bd.) b3: And The body, with the limbs or members. (TA.) b4: And i. q. نِطْعٌ [A thing that is spread on the ground to serve as a table for food &c., made of leather; like مِبْنَاةٌ]: occurring in a trad., where it is mentioned as spread on the ground, on a day of rain, for Mohammad to pray upon: so says Sh. (T.) بُنَىٌّ, [said to be] originally بُنَيْوٌ, A little son; [used as a term of endearment;] (Msb;) dim. of اِبْنٌ. (S, Mgh, Msb.) You say, يَا بُنَىِّ and يَا بُنَىَّ [O my little son, or O my child], with kesr to the ى and with fet-h also; like as you say, يَا أَبَتِ and يَا أَبَتَ [which see in art. ابو, voce أَبٌ].

(S, K.) b3: The Arabs say, الرِّفْقُ بُنَىُّ الحِلْمِ, meaning الرفق is like الحلم. (IAar, ISd.) بُنُوَّةٌ Sonship: (Lth, Zj, S, M, Msb, K:) [it may be originally بُنُويَةٌ, for Az says, app. on the authority of Zj,] it is not a decisive proof that the last radical is و, since they say فُتُوَّةٌ, though the dual [of the word from which this is derived] is فَتَيَانِ; (T;) [and ISd says that] بُنُوَّةٌ is thus because of the dammeh. (M.) البَنِيَّةُ [properly The building, like البِنَآءُ &c.: but particularly applied to] the Kaabeh; (S, M, K;) because of its nobleness. (M, K.) One says, لَا وَرَبِّ هٰذِهِ البَنِيَّةِ مَا كَانَ كَذَا وَكَذَا [No, by the Lord of this building (the Kaabeh), such and such thing were not]: (S, TA:) and this was a common form of oath. (TA.) The Kaabeh is also called بَنِيَّةُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ [The building of Abraham]; because he built it. (TA.) بَنَّآءٌ A builder; [meaning one whose business is that of building;] an architect. (M.) [See also what next follows.]

بَانٍ [Building, framing, or constructing]: accord. to A'Obeyd, its pl. is أَبْنَآءٌ; and in like manner, أَجْنَآءٌ is pl. of جَانٍ: and hence the prov., أَبْنَاؤُهَا أَجْنَاؤُهَا, (M,) or أَجْنَاؤُهَا أَبْنَاؤُهَا, i. e. The injurers thereof, meaning this house (هٰذِهِ الدَّار), by demolishing it, are the builders thereof. (S in art. جنى.) ISd says, I am of opinion that these two pls. are not used except in this prov.: and J says, in art. جنى, I think that the prov. is originally جُنَاتُهَا بُنَاتُهَا; but IB affirms that it is not so: and he says that the prov. is applied to him who does, or makes, a thing without consideration, and commits a fault therein, which he repairs by undoing what he has done or made: it originated from the fact that the daughter of a certain king of El-Yemen, during his absence on a military expedition, built, by the advice of others, a house, which he, disliking it, commanded them to demolish. (TA in art. جنى. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 294.]) b2: A bridegroom: from بَنَى عَلَى

أَهْلِهِ [q. v.]. (TA.) And hence, Any one going in to his wife. (S, TA.) b3: قَوْسٌ بَانِيةٌ A bow cleaving to its string (T, S, M, K) so that it (the latter) almost breaks; (T, S, M;) the doing of which is a fault; (M;) contr. of بَائِنَةٌ [q. v.]: (S and M in art. بين:) and so ↓ بَانَاةٌ (T, M, K) in the dial. of Teiyi: (T, M:) or the latter signifies widely separate from its string [like بَائِنَةٌ]. (TA.) بَانَاةٌ: see بَانٍ. b2: Also, (in [some of] the copies of the K erroneously written بانات, TA,) A man bending himself over his bow-string when shooting. (M, K.) b3: And Small نَبْل [or arrows].

(M, K.) One says, [likening a man to a camel lying down,] أَلْقَى بَوَانِيهُ, meaning He took up his abode, and settled, (T, M, K,) in a place; like أَلْقَى عَصَاهُ. (T, M.) أَلْقَى الشَّأْمُ بَوَانِيَهُ [meaning Syria became in a settled state] occurs in a trad. as related by A'Obeyd: and if he said بَوَائِنَهُ, it would be allowable; بَوَائِنُ being pl. of بوان, [i. e. بُوَانٌ or بِوَانٌ,] which is a name for any tent-pole except in the middle of the بَيْت, which has three poles. (T.) And it is said in another trad., أَلْقَتِ السَّمَآءُ بِرَكَ بَوَانِيهَا, meaning The sky cast down the rain that it contained. (TA.) اِبْنٌ, meaning A son; (M, Mgh, K;) because he is the father's building, made to be so by God; (Er-Rághib, TA;) and (tropical:) a son's son; and (tropical:) a descendant more remote; (Msb;) is with a conjunctive ا [when not immediately preceded by a quiescence, written ابْنٌ]; (Zj, T, M;) [and when immediately preceded by the proper name of a man and immediately followed by the proper name of his parent, written without the ا, as in زَيْدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو Zeyd the son of 'Amr (in which case it should also be observed that the former proper name is without tenween); unless the words compose a proposition, as in زَيْدٌ ابْنُ عَمْرٍو Zeyd is the son of 'Amr; or in the case of an interrogation, as in هَلْ زَيْدٌ ابْنُ عَمْرٍو Is Zeyd the son of 'Amr?]: the pl. is ↓ بَنُونَ (T, S, Mgh, Msb) in the nom. case, and بَنِينَ in the accus. and gen.; (Mgh;) and أَبْنَآءٌ, (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) which is a pl. of pauc.: (Msb:) [and hence it is argued that] the sing. is of the measure فَعَلٌ with the final radical letter elided and the conjunctive ا prefixed; (M;) originally بَنَىٌ, (M, K,) with ى, as we judge, because [the aor. ـَ is more common than يَبْنُو: (M:) or originally بَنَوٌ, (S, Msb, K,) with two fet-hahs, because it has بَنُونَ for a pl., and the perfect pl. does not admit of change [in its vowels beyond that which is here made in بَنُونَ for بَنَوُونَ]; (Msb;) and because it has for a pl. أَبْنَآءٌ, like as جَمَلٌ has أَجْمَالٌ; (S;) and the elided letter is و, (Akh, T, S,) as in أَبٌ and أَخٌ, (S,) because و is more commonly elided than ى; (Akh, T;) or because the fem. is بِنْتٌ and [that of أَخٌ is] أُخْتٌ; for we do not see this ه [or ت] affixed in the fem. except when و is elided in the masc., as is shown by أَخَوَاتٌ and هَنَوَاتٌ; (S;) though بُنُوَّةٌ is not a decisive proof that the last radical is و, for a reason stated above in the explanation of it: (T:) or, as some say, it is originally بِنْوٌ, with kesr to the. ب, like حِمْلٌ, because they say بِنْتٌ, and a change [of a vowel] in a case of this kind is rare: (Msb:) [but J says,] it may not be of the measure فِعْلٌ nor فُعْلٌ, because it has بَنُونَ with fet-h to the ب, for a pl.; nor of the measure فَعْلٌ, because this has [generally] for its [broken] pl. أَفْعُلٌ or فُعُولٌ: (S:) Zj says that it is originally بِنْىٌ or بِنْوٌ, or it may be originally بَنًا; that it is app. the last accord. to those who say بَنُون; and that أَبْنَآءٌ may be pl. of the measure فَعَلٌ and of فِعْلٌ; that بِنْتٌ favours its being of the latter; but that it may be of the measure فَعَلٌ changed to فِعْلٌ, as فَعَلٌ is changed to فُعْلٌ in the case of أُخْتٌ. (T.) Beside the pls. mentioned above, اِبْنٌ has a quasi-pl. n., namely ↓ أَبْنَى, of the same measure as أَعْمَى; (Mgh, TA; *) a sing. denoting the pl.: or, as some say, اِبْنٌ has for pls. أَبْنَآءٌ and أَبْنَى. (TA.) Lh mentions the phrase, هٰؤُلَآءِ أَبْنَا أَبْنَائِهِمْ [or أَبْنَى ابنائهم These are the sons of their sons.]. (M.) Sometimes م is affixed to اِبْنٌ [so that it becomes ↓ اِبْنُمٌ or اِبْنَمٌ at the beginning of a sentence, and ↓ ابْنُمٌ or ابُنَمٌ in other cases]: the word is then doubly declinable [like اِمْرُؤٌ or امْرُأٌ]: you say, هٰذَا ابْنُمٌ [This is a son], and رَأَيْتُ ابْنَمًا [I saw a son], and مَرَرْتُ بِابْنِمٍ

[I passed by a son]; making the ن similarly declinable to the م; and the ا is with kesr in every case [when the word commences a sentence, whether you make the word doubly declinable or not]: (AHeyth, * S:) [for] some make it singly declinable, leaving the ن with fet-h in every case [as the ر in اِمْرَأٌ or امْرَأٌ]; saying, هٰذَا ابْنَمُكَ [This is thy son], and رَأَيْتُ ابْنَمَكَ [I saw thy son], and مَرَرْتُ بِابْنَمِكَ [I passed by thy son]. (AHeyth, TA.) Hassán says, وَلَدْنَا بَنِى العَنْقَآءِ وَابْنَىْ مُحَرِّقٍ

↓ فَأَكْرِمْ بِنَا خَالًا وَأَكْرِمْ بِنَا ابْنَمَا [We begot the sons of El-'Ankà, and the two sons of Moharrik; and how generous are we as a maternal uncle! and how generous are we as a son!], (S, K, *) i. e., ابْنَا: the م is augmentative, and the hemzeh [or rather ا] is that of conjunction. (K.) And Ru-beh says, ↓ فَهْىَ تُنَادِى بِأَبِى وَابْنِيمَا بُكَآءَ شَكْلَى فَقَدَتْ حَمِيمَا [As the weeping of a bereft woman, who has lost a relation, therefore she calls out, With my father would I ransom thee, and a son]; meaning ابْنِمَا. (TA.) The fem. of اِبْنٌ is ↓ اِبْنَةٌ or ابْنَةٌ [with the conjunctive ا when not commencing a sentence] and ↓ بِنْتٌ [meaning A daughter; and (assumed tropical:) any female descendant]: (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) accord. to Sb, (M,) اِبْنَةٌ is formed from اِبْنٌ by affixing ه [or ة]; but not so بِنْتٌ; for this is formed by affixing ى as a letter of quasi-coordination, and then substituting for it ت: (M, K:) [but if the ت be substituted for ى, it seems more probable that the ى is the final radical:] or, as some say, the ت is substituted for و: (M:) [Mtr says,] the ت is substituted for the final radical: (Mgh:) accord. to Ks, it is originally with ه [or ة], because it has a fem. meaning: (IAar, Msb:) [my own opinion is most agreeable with this of Ks; and with that of Zj, which will be mentioned below; or, perhaps, is identical with that of Zj: I think it most probable that, as اِبْنٌ is generally held to be originally بَنَىٌ or بَنَوٌ, so اِبْنَةٌ and بِنْتٌ are both originally بَنَيَةٌ or بَنَوَةٌ, and that بِنْتٌ is formed from اِبْنَةٌ by suppressing the alif, transferring its kesreh to the ب, making the ن quiescent, and changing the ة into ت, which is therefore said to be not the sign of the fem. gender, either because it is not ة, but is a substitute for ة, or because it is preceded by a quiescent letter:] AHn says that the ت is substituted for the final radical letter, which is و; and that it is not the sign of the fem. gender, because the letter [next] before it is quiescent: this [he says] is the opinion of Sb, and is the right opinion; for he says that if you were to use it as the proper name of a man, you would make it perfectly decl.; and if the ت were to denote the fem. gender, the name would not be perfectly decl.: (TA:) and the same is said respecting the ت in أُخْتٌ: (TA in art. اخو:) this ت remains in a case of pause (Ks, IAar, S, Msb) as in the case of the connexion of the word with a word following: (S:) but one should not say اِبِنْتٌ, (Th, T, S.) because the ا is required only on account of the quiescence of the ب, and is therefore dropped when this is made movent: (S:) Zj says that, in forming the pl. of بِنْتٌ [and of اِبْنَةٌ], the sing. is reduced to its original form, which is فَعْلَةٌ [as I find it written in the transcript from the T in the TT, but it may be a mistake for فَعَلَپٌ,] with the last radical letter suppressed: (T in TT:) the pl. is بَنَاتٌ (T, S, Msb) alone: (S:) [and this is generally treated as a fem. pl. of the perfect, or sound, kind, although the ت in بِنْتٌ is said to be not a sign of the fem. gender; so that you say, رَأَيْتُ بَنَاتِكَ I saw thy daughters; but sometimes] one says, رَأَيْتُ بَنَاتَكَ, with fet-h [as the case-ending], treating the ت as a radical letter. (S.) It is said in the Bári' that when men and women are mixed together, the masc. pl. is made predominant; so that one says, بَنُو فُلَانٍ [meaning The sons and daughters, or the children, of such a one]; and even, اِمْرَأَةٌ مِنْ بَنى

تَمِيمٍ [A woman of the children of Temeem]; and accordingly, if بَنُو فُلَانٍ is applied to denote the persons to whom a legacy is left, the males and the females are included therein. (Msb.) b2: When اِبْن is applied to that which is not a human being, (IAmb, Msb,) to an irrational being, (Msb,) it has for its pl. بَنَات: (IAmb, Msb:) thus the pl. of اِبْنُ مَخَاضٍ [A young male camel in his second year] is بَنَاتُ مَخَاضٍ: (Mgh, Msb:) that of اِبْنُ لَبُونٍ [A male camel that has entered upon his third year] is بَنَاتُ لَبُونٍ: (Msb:) and that of اِبْنُ نَعْشٍ [Any one of the stars of the tail of Ursa Major or of that of Ursa Minor] is بَنَاتُ نَعْشٍ; but sometimes, by poetic licence, بَنُو نَعْشٍ: and hence, or to make a distinction between the males and the females, the lawyers say, بَنُو اللَّبُونِ. (IAmb, Msb.) b3: ↓ بَنَاتٌ also signifies (tropical:) Dolls with which young girls play: (S, Mgh, K:) sing. بِنْتٌ. (Mgh.) It occurs in this sense in a trad., in which 'Áïsheh speaks of her playing therewith (S, Mgh) when, being nine years of age, she was conducted as a bride to Mohammad. (Mgh.) b4: اِبْن is often prefixed to some other noun (T, M, Msb) that particularizes its signification, because of a close connexion between the two meanings: (Msb:) and so is ↓ بِنْت. (T, M.) [Most of the compounds thus formed will be found explained in the arts. to which belong the nouns that occupy the second place. The following are among the more common, and are therefore here mentioned, as exs. of different kinds.] b5: اِبْنُ الطِّينِ [The son of earth, or clay, meaning] Adam. (T.) اِبْنُ اللَّيْلِ and اِبْنُ الطَّرِيقِ The thief, or robber. (T.) Also the former, The wayfarer, or traveller; (Er-Rághib, TA;) and so اِبْنُ السَّبِيلِ. (Msb, Er-Rághib.) اِبْنُ حَرْبٍ A warrior: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and اِبْنُ الحَرْبِ [the warrior; or] he who suffices for war, and who defends. (Msb.) اِبْنُ الدُّنْيَا The rich man. (Msb.) b2: اِبْنُ آوَى [The jackal;] a certain beast of prey. (TA.) اِبْنُ عِرْسٍ

The سُرْعُوب [or weasel]. (TA.) b3: اِبْنُ أَدِيمٍ A skin for water or milk made of one hide; and اِبْنُ أَدِيمَيْنِ one made of two hides; and اِبْنُ ثَلَاثَهِ

آدِمَةٍ one made of three hides. (T.) b4: اِبْنَةُ الجَبَلِ The echo. (T.) b5: بَنَاتُ بِئْسٍ and بَنَاتُ طَبَقٍ and بَنَاتُ بَرْحٍ and بَنَاتُ أَوْدَكَ Calamities, or misfortunes. (T.) b6: Ru-beh said of a man who was mentioned to him, كَانَ إِحْدَى بَنَاتِ مَسَاجِدِ اللّٰهِ; as though he asserted that He was one of the pebbles of the mosque [or rather of the mosques of God]. (S.) اِبْنَةٌ or ابْنَةٌ: fem. of اِبْنٌ, which see.

اِبْنُمٌ and اِبْنَمٌ, or ابْنُمٌ and ابْنَمٌ: see اِبْنٌ, in three places.

أَبْنَى: quasi-pl. n. of اِبْنٌ which see.

اِبْنَىٌّ: see بَنَوِىٌّ.

ابْنِيمَا, for ابْنِمَا: see a verse cited voce اِبْنٌ.

أُبَيْنٌ [an unused, or unusual, dim. of اِبْنٌ]: see what next follows.

أُبَيْنٍ, of the same measure as أُعَيْمٍ, is the dim. of أَبْنَى, which is like أَعْمَى, (Sb, IB, Mgh,) and is quasi-pl. of اِبْنٌ. (Mgh.) Mohammad is related, in a trad., to have said, أُبَيْنِى لَا تَرْمُوا جَمْرَةَ العَبَقَبِةِ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ [O little (meaning dear) sons, cast not ye the pebble of the 'Akabeh (see جَمْرَةٌ) until the sun rise], (TA,) or أُبَيْنِىَّ الخ [O my little sons &c.]: (Mgh, TA:) IAth says that the hemzeh is augmentative; and that there are differences of opinion respecting the form of the word and its meaning: some say that it is the dim. of أَبْنَى, like أَعْمَى, a sing. word denoting a pl. meaning, or, accord. to some, a pl. of اِبْنٌ, as well as أَبْنَآءٌ: some say that it is the dim. of اِبْنٌ; [and if so, we must read أُبَيْنِى my little son;] but this requires consideration [more especially as it is followed by a pl. verb]: AO says that it is the dim. of بَنِىَّ, pl. of اِبْنٌ with the affixed pronoun of the first Pers\. [sing.]; and this requires us to read أُبَيْنِىَّ. (TA.) J says, in the S, that the dim. of أَبْنَآءٌ [pl. of اِبْنٌ] is ↓ أُبَيْنَآءٌ, and, if you will, ↓ أُبَيْنُونَ; and he cites a verse in which occurs the expression أُبَيْنِيكَ, [in the gen. case, meaning thy little sons,] and adds, it is as though its sing. were إِبْنٌ, with the disjunctive ا, whence the dim. ↓ أُبَيْنٌ, in the pl. أُبَيْنُونَ: but he should have said, as though its sing. were أَبْنَى, like أَعْمَى, originally أَبْنَوُ. (IB, TA.) أُبَيْنَآء: see what next precedes.

أُبَيْنُونَ: see what next precedes.

مِبْنَاةٌ (T, S, M, K) and مَبْنَاةٌ (M, K) A نِطْع [like بِنَآءٌ, which see for an explanation]: (S, M, K:) and a سِتْر [i. e. curtain or the like]: (K:) or a thing in the form of a سِتْر: (M:) or a [tent of the kind called] قُبَّة, made of skins, or hides: (IAar, T:) or a thing of skins, or hides, of like form to the قُبَّة, which a woman places in, or at, the side of her tent (فِى كِسْرِ بَيْتِهَا), and in which she dwells; and may-be she has sheep, or goats, and is content with the possession of these, exclusively of the other sheep, or goats, for herself and her garments [and app. for making of their skins her مبناه]; and she has a covering (إِزَار) [extended] in the middle of the بَيْت [or tent], within, to protect her from the heat, and from the violent rain, so that she and her clothes are not wetted: (Aboo-'Adnán, T:) or, accord. to As, a mat (حَصِيرٌ), or a نِطْع, which the trafficker spreads upon the things that he sells: and they used to put the mats (الحُصُر) upon the أَنْطَاع [pl. of نِطْع], and go round about with them [in the market]: the مبناة is thus called because it is made of skins joined together: (T:) also a receptacle of the kind called عَيْبَة: (M, K:) such is said to be its meaning: (S:) pl. مَبَانٍ. (T.) مَبْنِىٌّ [Built, &c.: see 1]. أَرْضٌ مَبْنِيَّةٌ meansأَرْضٌ مَبْنِىٌّ فِيهَا [Land built in or upon]; and is deemed a chaste phrase. (Mgh.) مُبَنًّى Raised high; applied to a palace, or pavilion. (M, TA.) مُبْتَنًى [pass. part. n. of اِبْتَنَاهُ] is used in the place of the inf. n. [of that verb, agreeably with many other instances, or accord. to a common licence], meaning The act of building, framing, or constructing. (TA.)
