علم الكيمياء
هو علم يعرف به طرق سلب الخواص من الجواهر المعدنية وجلب خاصية جديدة إليها وإفادتها خواصا لم تكن لها والاعتماد فيه عن أن الفلزات كلها مشتركة في النوعية والاختلاف الظاهر بينها إنما هو باعتبار أمور عرضية يجوز انتقالها.
قال الصفدي في شرح لامية العجم: وهذه اللفظة معربة من اللفظ العبراني وأصله كيم يه معناه أنه من الله وذكر الاختلاف في شأنه بامتناعه عنهم.
وحاصل ما ذكره أن الناس فيه على طريقتين:
فقال: كثير ببطلانه منهم الشيخ الرئيس ابن سينا أبطله بمقدمات من كتاب الشفاء والشيخ تقي الدين أحمد بن تيمية رحمه الله صنف رسالة في إنكاره وصنف يعقوب الكندي أيضا رسالة في إبطاله جعلها مقالتين وكذلك غيرهم لكنهم لم يوردوا شيئا يفيد الظن لامتناعه فضلا عن اليقين بل لم يأتوا إلا بما يفيد الاستبعاد.
وذهب آخرون إلى إمكانه منهم الإمام فخر الدين الرازي فإنه في المباحث المشرقية عقد فصلا في بيان إمكانه.
والشيخ نجم الدين بن أبي الدر البغدادي رد على الشيخ ابن تيمية وزيف ما قاله في رسالته.
ورد أبو بكر محمد بن زكريا الرازي على يعقوب الكندي ردا غير طائل ومؤيد الدين أبو إسماعيل الحسين بن علي المعروف بالطغرائي صنف فيه كتبا منها حقائق الإشهادات وبين إثباته ورد على ابن سينا.
ثم ذكر الصفدي نبذة من أقوال المثبتين والمنكرين.
وقال الشيخ الرئيس: نسلم إمكان صبغ النحاس بصبغ الفضة والفضة بصبغ الذهب وأن يزال عن الرصاص أكثر ما فيه من النقص فأما أن يكون المصــبوغ يسلب أو يكسى أما الأول فحال وأما الثاني فلم يظهر إلى إمكانه بعد إذ هذه الأمور المحسوسة يشبه أن لا تكون هي الفصول التي تصير بها هذه الأجساد أنواعا بل هي أعراض ولوازم وفصولها مجهولة وإذا كان الشيء مجهولا كيف يمكن أن يقصد قصد إيجاد أو إفناء؟
وذكر الإمام حججا أخرى للفلاسفة على امتناعه وأبطل بعد ذلك ما قرره الشيخ وغيره وقرر إمكانه واستدل في الملخص أيضا على إمكانه فقال: الإمكان العقلي ثابت لأن الأجسام مشتركة الجسمية فوجب أن يصح على كل واحد منها ما يصح على الكل على ما ثبت.
وأما الوقوع فلأن انفصال الذهب عن غيره باللون والرزانة وكل واحد منهما يمكن اكتسابه ولا منافاة بينهما نعم الطريق إليه عسير. وحكى أبو بكر بن الصائغ المعروف بابن ماجة الأندلسي في بعض تآليفه عن الشيخ أبي نصر الفارابي أنه قال: قد بين أرسطو في كتابه من المعادن أن صناعة الكيمياء داخلة تحت الإمكان إلا أنها من الممكن الذي يعسر وجوده بالفعل اللهم إلا أن تتفق قرائن يسهل بها الوجود وذلك أنه فحص عنها أولا على طريق الجدل فأثبتها بقياس وأبطلها بقياس على عادته فيما يكثر عناده من الأوضاع ثم أثبتها أخيرا بقياس ألفه من مقدمتين بينهما في أول الكتاب.
وهما أن الفلزات واحدة بالنوع والاختلاف الذي بينها ليس في ماهياتها وإنما هو في أعراضها فبعضه في أعراضها الذاتية وبعضه في أعراضها العرضية.
والثانية: أن كل شيئين تحت نوع واحد اختلفا بعرض فإنه يمكن انتقال كل واحد منهما إلى الآخر فإن كان العرض ذاتيا عسر الانتقال وإن كان مفارقا سهل الانتقال والعسير في هذه الصناعة إنما هو لاختلاف أكثر هذه الجواهر في أعراضها الذاتية ويشبه أن يكون الاختلاف الذي بين الذهب والفضة يسير جدا انتهى كلامه.
وقال الإمام شمس الدين محمد بن إبراهيم بن ساعد الأنصاري: إذا أراد المدبر أن يصنع ذهبا نظير ما صنعته الطبيعة من الزيبق والكبريت الظاهرين فيحتاج إلى أربعة أشياء.
كمية كل واحد من ذنيك الجزئين.
وكيفيته.
ومقدار الحرارة الفاعلة للطبخ.
وزمانه وكل واحد منها عسر التحصيل.
وأما إن أراد ذلك بأن يدبر دواء وهو المعبر عنه بالإكسير مثلا ويلقيه على الفضة ليمتزج بها ويستقر خالدا حال جميع المعدنيات وخواصها وإن استخرجه بالقياس فمقدماته مجهولة ولا خفاء في عسر ذلك ومشقته انتهى وقال الصفدي: زعم الطبيعون في علة كون الذهب في المعدن إن الزيبق لما كمل طبخه جذبه إليه كبريت المعدن فاجنه في جوفه لئلا يسيل سيلان الرطوبات فلما اختلطا واتحدا وزالت الحرارة الفاعلة للطبخ وزمان تكون الذهب وكل منهما عسر التحصيل.
وأما إن أراد ذلك بأن يدبر دواء وهو المعبر عنه بالإكسير مثلا ويلقيه على الفضة في طبخها ونضجها انعقد من ذلك ضروب المعادن فإن كان الزئبق صافيا والكبريت نقيا واختلطت أجزاؤهما على النسبة وكانت حرارة المعدن معتدلة لم يعرض لها عارض من البرد واليبس ولا من الملوحات والمرارت والحموضات انعقد من ذلك على طول الزمان الذهب الإبريز
وهذا المعدن لا يتكون إلا في البراري الرملة والأحجار الرخوة ومراعاة الإنسان النار في عمل الذهب بيده على مثل هذا النظام مما تشق معرفة الطريق إليه والوصول إلى غايته:
فيا دارها بالخيف إن مزراها ... قريب ولكن دون ذلك أهوال
وذكر يعقوب الكندي في رسالته: تعذر فعلل الناس لما انفردت الطبيعة بفعله وخداع أهل هذه الصناعة وجهلهم وبطل دعوى الذين يدعون صنعة الذهب والفضة.
قال المنكرون: لو كان الذهب الصباغي مثلا للذهب الطبيعي لكان ما بالصناعة مثلا لما بالطبيعة ولو جاز ذلك لجاز أن يكون ما بالطبيعة مثلا لما بالصناعة فكنا نجد سيفا أو سريرا أو خاتما بالطبيعة وذلك باطل.
وقالوا أيضا: الجواهر الصابغة إما أن تكون أصبر على النار من المصــبوغ أو يكون المصــبوغ أصبر أو تكونا متساويين.
فإن كان الصابغ أصبر وجب1 أن يكون المصــبوغ أصبر ووجب أن يفنى الصابغ ويبقى المصــبوغ على حاله الأول عريا من الصبغ.
وإن تساويا في الصبر على النار فهما من جنس واحد لاستوائهما في المصابرة عليها فلا يكون أحدهما صابغا ولا مصــبوغــا وهذه الحجة الثانية من أقوى حجج المنكرين.
والجواب من المثبتين عن الأولى: إنا نجد النار تحصل بالقدح واصطكاك الأجرام والريح تحصل بالمراوح وأكواز الفقاع والنوشادر قد تتخذ من الشعر وكذلك كثير من الزاجات ثم بتقدير أن لا يوجد بالطبيعة ما لا يوجد بالصناعة لا يلزمنا الجزم بنفي ذلك ولا يلزمنا من إمكان حصول الأمر الطبعي بالصناعة إمكان العكس بل الأمر موقوف على الدليل.
وعن الثانية: أنه لا يلزم من استواء الصابغ. والمصــبوغ على النار استواؤهما في الماهية لما عرفت أن المختلفين يشتركان في بعض الصفات وفي هذا الجواب نظر.
وحكى بعض من أنفق عمره في الطلب أن الطغرائي ألقى المثقال من الإكسير أولا على ستين ألف مثقال من معدن آخر فصار ذهبا ثم أنه ألقى آخر المثقال على ثلاثمائة ألف وأن مر يانس الراهب معلم خالد بن يزيد ألقى المثقال على ألف ألف ومائتي ألف مثقال وقالت مارية القبطية: والله لولا الله لقلت أن المثقال بملأ ما بين الخافقين. والجواب الفصل ما قاله الغزي:
كجوهر الكيمياء ليس ترى ... من ناله والأنام في طلبه
وصاحب الشذور من جملة أئمة هذا الفن صرح بأن نهاية الصبغ إلقاء الواحد على الألف في قوله:
فعاد بلطف الحل والعقد جوهرا ... يطاع في النيران واحده الألفا
وزعم بعضهم أن المقامات للحريري وكليلة ودمنة رموز في الكيمياء ويزعمون أن الصناعة مرموزة في صورة البراري وقد كتب بعض من جرب وتعب وأقلقه الجد وظن أن جدها لعب على مصنفات جابر تلميذ إمام جعفر الصادق:
هذا الذي مقاله ... غر الأوائل والأواخر
ما أنت إلا كاسر ... كذب الذي سماك جابر
وكان قد شغل نفسه بطلب الكيمياء فأفنى بذلك عمره.
وذكر الصفدي أن الشيخ تقي الدين بن دقيق العيد وإمام الحرمين كان كل منهما مغرى به. واعلم أن المعتنين به بعضهم يدبر مجموع الكبريت والزيبق في حر النار لتحصل امتزاجات كثيرة في مدة يسيرة لا يحصل في المعدن إلا في زمان طويل وهذا أصعب الطرق لأنه يحتاج إلى عمل شاق وبعضهم يؤلف المعادن على نسبة أوزان الفلزات وحجمها.
وبعضهم يجهل القياس فيحصل لهم الاشتباه والالتباس فيستمدون بالنباتات والجمادات والحيوانات كالشعر والبيض والمرارة وهم لا يهتدون إلى النتيجة.
ثم إن الحكماء أشاروا إلى طريقة صنعة الإكسير على طريق الأحاجي والألغاز والتعمية لأن في كتمه مصلحة عامة فلا سبيل إلى الاهتداء بكتبهم والله يهدي من يشاء قال أبو الأصبع عبد العزيز بن تمام العراقي يشير إلى مكانة الواصل لهذه الحكمة:
فقد ظفرت بما لم يؤته ملك ... لا المنذران ولا كسرى بن ساسان
ولا ابن هند ولا النعمان صاحبه ... ولا ابن ذي يزن في رأس غمدان
قال الجلدكي في شرح المكتسب بعد أن بين انتسابه إلى الشيخ جابر وتحصيله في خدمته: وبالله تعالى أقسم أنه أراد بعد ذلك أن ينقلني عن هذا العلم مرارا عديدة ويورد علي الشكوك يريد لي بذلك الإضلال بعد الهداية ويأبى الله إلا ما أراد فلما فهمت مراده وعلمت أن الحسد قد داخله مني حصرته في ميدان البحث ومددت إليه سنان اللسان وعجز عن القيام بسيف الدليل ونادى عليه برهان الحق بالإفحام فجنح للسلم وقام واعتنقني وقال: إنما أردت أن اختبرك وأعلم حقيقة مكان الإدراك منك ولتكن من أهل هذا العلم على حذر ممن يأخذه عنك.
واعلم أن من لا مفترض علينا كتمان هذا العلم وتحريم إذاعته لغير المستحق من بني نوعنا وأن لا نكتمه عن أهله لأن وضع الأشياء في محالها من الأمور الواجبة ولأن في إذاعته خراب العالم وفي كتمانه عن أهله تضييع لهم.
وقد رأينا أن الحكمة صارت في زماننا مهدمة البنيان لا سيما وطلبة هذا الزمان من أجهل الحيوان قد اجتمعوا على المحال فإنهم ما بين سوقة وباعة وأصحاب دهاء وشعبذة لا يدرون ما يقولون فأخذوا يتذاكرون الفقر ويذكرون أن الكيمياء غناء الدهر ويأتون على ذلك بزخارف الحكايات ومع ذلك لا يجتمع أحد منهم مع الآخر على رأي واحد ولا يدرون كيف الطلب مع أن حجر القوم لا يعد. وهذه المولدات الثلاث لكن جهالاتهم أوقعتهم في الضلال البعيد ورأينا أنه وجب علينا النصيحة على من طلب الحكمة الإلهية وهذه الصناعة الشريفة الفلسفية فوضعنا لهم كتابنا الموسوم ببغية الخبير في قانون طلب الإكسير ثم وضعنا الشمس المنير في تحقيق الإكسير.
وفي هذا الفن رسالة للبخاري ذكر فيها حملة دلائل نقلية وعقلية تبلغ ستة وثلاثين.
وفيه أيضا: رسالة ابن سينا المسماة بمرآة العجائب وأول من تكلم في علم الكيمياء ووضع فيها الكتب وبين صنعة الإكسير والميزان ونظر في كتب الفلاسفة من أهل الإسلام خالد بن يزيد بن معاوية بن أبي سفيان.
وأول من اشتهر هذا العلم عنه جابر بن حيان الصوفي من تلامذة خالد كما قيل: حكمة أورثناها جابر ... عن إمام صادق القول وفي
لوصي طاب في تربته ... فهو مسك في تراب النجف
وذلك لأنه وفي لعلي واعترف له بالخلافة وترك الإمارة.
واعلم أنه فرقها في كتب كثيرة لكنه أوصل الحق إلى أهله ووضع كل شيء في محله وأوصل من جعله الله سبحانه وتعالى سببا له في الإيصال ولكن اشغلهم بأنواع التدهيش والمحال لحكمة ارتضاها عقله ورأيه بحسب الزمان ومع ذلك فلا يخلو كتاب من كتبه عن فوائد عديدة.
وأما من جاء بعد جابر من حكماء الإسلام مثل مسلمة بن أحمد المجريطي وأبي بكر الرازي وأبي الأصبع بن تمام العراقي والطغرائي والصادق محمد بن أميل التميمي والإمام أبي الحسن علي صاحب الشذور فكل منهم قد اجتهد غاية الاجتهاد في التعلم والجلدكي متأخر عنهم.
ثم اعلم أن جماعة من الفلاسفة كالحكيم هرمس وأرسطاطاليس وفيثاغورس لما أرادوا استخراج هذه الصناعة الإلهية جعلوا أنفسهم في مقام الطبيعة فعرفوا بالقوة المنطقية والعلوم التجاربية ما دخل على كل جسم من هذه الأجسام من الحر والبرد واليبوسة وما خالطه أيضا من الأجسام الأخر. فعملوا الحيلة في تنقيص الزائد وتزييد الناقص من الكيفيات الفاعلة والمفعولة والمنفعلة لعلة تلك الأجسام على ما يراد منها بالأكاسير الترابية والحيوانية والنباتية المختلفة في الزمان والمكان وأقاموا التكليس مقام حرق المعادن والتهابها والتسقية مقام التبريد والتجميد والتساوي مقام التجفيف والتشميع مقام الترطيب والتليين والتقطير مقام التجوهر والتفصيل مقام التصفية والتخليص والسحق والتحليل مقام الالتيام والتمزيج والعقد مقام الاتحاد والتمكين واتخذوا جواهر الأصول شيئا واحدا فاعلا فعلا غير منفعل محتويا على تأثيرات مختلفة شديدة القوة نافذة الفعل والتأثير فيما يلاقي من الأجسام بحصول معرفة ذلك بالإلهامات السماوية والقياسات العقلية والحسية وكذلك فعل أيضا أسقليقندر يونس وأبدروماخس وغيرهم في تراكيب الترياق المعاجين والحبوب والأكحال والمراهم فإنهم قاسوا قوى الأدوية بالنسبة إلى مزاج أبدان البشر والأمراض الغامضة فيها وركبوا من الحار والبارد والرطب واليابس دواء واحدا ينتفع به في المداواة بعد مراعاة الأسباب كما فعل ذي مقراط أيضا في استخراج صنعة إكسير الخمر فإنه نظر أولا في أن الماء لا يقارب الخمر في شيء من القوام والاعتدال لأنه ماء العنب ووجد من خواص الخمر خمسا: والطعم والرائحة والتفريح والإسكار فأخذ إذ شرع من أول تركيبه للأدوية العقاقير الصابغة للماء بلون الخمر ثم المشاكلة في الطعم ثم المعطرة للرائحة ثم المفرحة ثم المسكرة فسحق منها اليابسات وسقاها بالمائعات حتى اتحدت فصارت دواء واحدا يابسا أضيف منه القليل إلى الكثير صبغه انتهى من رسالة أرسطو.
قال الجلدكي في نهاية الطب: إن من عادة كل حكيم أن يفرق العلم كله في كتبه كلها ويجعل له من بعض كتبه خواص يشير إليها بالتقدمة على بقية الكتب لما اختصوا به من زيادة العلم.
كما خص جابر من جميع كتبه كتابه المسمى ب الخمسمائة.
وكما خص مؤيد الدين من كتبه كتابه المسمى ب المصابيح والمفاتيح. وكما خص المجريطي كتابه الرتبة.
وكما خص ابن أميل كتابه المصباح.
ثم قال الجلدكي: ومن شروط العالم أن لا يكتم ما علمه الله تعالى من المصالح التي يعود نفعها على الخاص والعام إلا هذه الموهبة فإن الشرط فيها أن لا يظهرها بصريح اللفظ أبدا ولا يعلم بها الملوك لا سيما الذين لا يفهمون.
ومن العجب أن المظهر لهذه الموهبة مرصد لحلول البلاء به من عدة وجوه:
أحدها: أنه إن أظهرها لم ينم عليه فقد حل به البلاء لأن ما عنده مطلوب الناس جميعا فهو مرصد لحلول البلاء لأنهم يرون انتزاع مطلوبهم من عنده وربما حملهم الحسد على إتلافه إن أظهره للملك يخاف عليه منه فإن الملوك أحوج الناس إلى المال لأن به قوام دولتهم فربما يخيل منه أنه يخرج عنه دولته بقدرته على المال لا سيما ومال الدنيا كله حقير عند الواصل لهذه الموهبة.
قال صاحب كنز الحكمة: فأما الواصل إلى حقيقته فلا ينبغي له أن يعترف به لأنه يضره وليس له منفعة البتة في إظهاره وإنما يصل إليه كل عالم بطريق يستخرجها لنفسه إما قريبة وإما بعيدة والإرشاد إنما يكون نحو الطريق العام وأما الطريق الخاص فلا يجوز أن يجتمع عليه اثنان اللهم إلا أن يوفق إنسان بسعادة عظيمة وعناية إلهية لأستاذ يلقنه إياها تلقينا وهيهات من ذلك إلا من جهة واحدة لا غير وهو أن يجتمع فيلسوفان أحدهما واصل والآخر طالب ولا يسعه أن يكتمه إياه وهذا أعز من الكبريت الأحمر1 وطلب الأبلق العقوق. انتهى.
ونحن اقتفينا أثر الحكماء في كل ما وضعناه من كتبنا.
قال في شرح المكتسب إلا أن كتابنا هذا امتن من كل كتبنا ما خلا الشمس المنير وغاية السرور فإن لكل واحد منهم مزية في العلم والعمل فمن ظفر بهذه الكتب الثلاثة فقط من كتبنا فلعله لا يفوته شيء من تحقيق هذا العلم.
والكتب المؤلفة في هذا العلم كثيرة منها حقائق الاستشهادات وشرح المكتسب وبغية الخبير والشمس المنير في تحقيق الإكسير ورسالة للبخاري ومرآة العجائب لابن سينا والتقريب في أسرار التركيب وغاية السرور شرح الشذور والبرهان وكنز الاختصاص والمصباح في علم المفتاح ونهاية الطلب في شرح المكتسب ونتائج الفكرة ومفاتيح الحكمة ومصابيح الرحمة وفردوس الحكمة وكنز الحكمة انتهى. ما في كشف الظنون.
وقد أطال ابن خلدون في بيان علم الكيمياء ثم عقد فصلا في إنكار ثمرتها واستحالة وجودها وما ينشأ من المفاسد عن انتحالها.
ثم قال وتحقيق الأمر في ذلك أن الكيمياء إن صح وجودها كما تزعم الحكماء المتكلمون فيها مثل جابر بن حيان ومسلمة بن أحمد المجريطي وأمثالهما فليست من باب الصنائع الطبيعية ولا تتم بأمر صناعي وليس كلامهم فيها من منحى الطبيعيات إنما هو من منحى كلامهم في الأمور السحرية وسائر الخوارق وما كان من ذلك للحلاج وغيره وقد ذكر مسلمة في كتاب الغاية ما يشبه ذلك وكلامه فيها في كتاب رتبة الحكيم من هذا المنحى وهذا كلام جابر في رسائله ونحو كلامهم فيه معروف ولا حاجة بنا إلى شرحه.
وبالجملة فأمرها عندهم من كليات المواد الخارجة عن حكم الصنائع فكما لا يتدبر ما منه الخشب والحيوان في يوم أو شهر خشبا أو حيوانا فيما عدا مجرى تخليقه كذلك لا يتدبر ذهب من مادة الذهب في يوم ولا شهر ولا يتغير طريق عادته إلا بإرفاد مما وراء عالم الطبائع وعمل الصنائع. فكذلك من طلب الكيمياء طلبا صناعيا ضيع ماله وعمله ويقال لهذا التدبير الصناعي: التدبير العقيم لأن نيلها إن كان صحيحا فهو واقع مما وراء الطبائع والصنائع فهو كالمشي على الماء وامتطاء الهواء والنفوذ في كثائف الأجساد ونحو ذلك من كرامات الأولياء الخارقة للعادة أو مثل تخليق الطير ونحوها من معجزات الأنبياء قال تعالى: {وَإِذْ تَخْلُقُ مِنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ بِإِذْنِي فَتَنْفُخُ فِيهَا فَتَكُونُ طَيْراً بِإِذْنِي} وعلى ذلك فسبيل تيسيرها مختلف بحسب حال من يؤتاها فربما أوتيها الصالح ويؤتيها غيره فتكون عنده معارة.
وربما أوتيها الصالح ولا يملك إيتاءها فلا تتم في يد غيره ومن هذا الباب يكون عملها سحريا فقد تبين أنها إنما تقع بتأثيرات النفوس وخوارق العادة إما معجزة أو كرامة أو سحرا ولهذا كان كلام الحكماء كلهم فيها ألغاز لا يظفر بحقيقته إلا من خاض لجة من علم السحر واطلع على تصرفات النفس في عالم الطبيعة وأمور خرق العادة غير منحصرة ولا يقصد أحد إلى تحصيلها والله بما يعملون محيط.
وأكثر ما يحمل على التماس هذه الصناعة وانتحالها العجز عن الطرق الطبيعية للمعاش وابتغاؤه من غير وجوهه الطبيعية كالفلاحة والنجارة والصناعة فيستصعب العاجز ابتغاؤه من هذه ويروم الحصول على الكثير من المال دفعة بوجوه غير طبيعية من الكيمياء وغيرها وأكثر من يعني بذلك الفقراء من أهل العمران حتى في الحكماء المتكلمين في إنكارها واستحالتها.
فإن ابن سينا القائل باستحالتها كان عليه الوزراء فكان من أهل الغنى والثروة.
والفارابي القائل بإمكانها كان من أهل الفقر الذين يعوزهم أدنى بلغة من المعاش وأسبابه وهذه تهمة ظاهرة في أنظار النفوس المولعة بطرقها وانتحالها والله الرزاق ذو القوة المتين لا رب سواه.
قال في مدينة العلوم: إ ن علم الكيمياء كان معجزة لموسى عليه السلام علمه القارون فوقع منه ما وقع ثم ظهر في جبابرة قوم هود وتعاطوا ذلك وبنوا مدينة من ذهب وفضة لم يخلق مثلها في البلاد.
وممن اشتهر بالوصول إليه مؤيد الدين الطغرائي يقال: أنه وصل إلى الإكسير وهو الدواء الذي يدبره الحكماء ويلقونه على الجسد حال انفعاله بالذوبان فيحيله كإحالة السم الجسد الوارد عليه لكن إلى الصلاح دون الفساد ويعبرون عن مادة هذا الدواء بالحجر المكرم وربما يقولون حجر موسى لأنه الذي علمه موسى عليه السلام لقارون ويختلف حال هذا الدواء بقدر قوة التدبير وضعفه.
يحكى أن واحدا سأل من مشائخ هذا الصنعة أن يعلمه هذا العلم وخدمه على ذلك سنين فقال: إن من شرط هذه الصنعة تعليمها لأفقر من في البلد فاطلب رجلا لا يكون أفقر منه في البلد حتى نعلمه وأنت تبصرها فطلب مدة مثل ما يقول الأستاذ فوجد رجلاً يغسل قميصا له في غاية الرداءة والدرن وهو يغسله بالرمل ولم يقدر على قطعة صابون فقال في نفسه: لم أر أفقر منه فأخبر الأستاذ فقال: وجدت رجلا حاله وصفته كيت وكيت فقال الأستاذ: والله إن الذي وصفته هو شيخنا جابر بن حيان الذي تعلمت منه هذه الصنعة وبكى.
قال إن من خاصية هذه الصنعة إن الواصلين إليها يكونون في غاية الإفلاس كما نقل عن الإمام الشافعي من طلب المال بالكيمياء أو الإكسير فقد أفلس إلا أنهم يقولون: إن حب الدنانير تفع عن قلب من عرفها ولا يؤثر التعب في تحصيلها على الراحة في تركها حتى قالوا: إن معرفة هذه الصنعة نصف السلوك لأن نصف السلوك رفع محبة الدنيا عن القلب وذلك يحصل بمعرفتها أي: حصول ومن قصد الوصول إلى ذلك بكتبهم وبتعبيراتهم وإشاراتهم فقد صار منخرطا في الأخسرين أعمالا الذي ضل سعيهم في الحيوة الدنيا وهم يسحبون أنهم يحسنون صنعا بل الوقوف على ذلك إن كان فبموهبة عظيمة من الملك المنان أو بواسطة الكشف والإلهام من الله ذي الجلال الإكرام أو بإنعام من الواصلين إلى هذا الأمر المكتوم إشفاقا وإحسانا ولا تتمن الوصول إلى ذلك بالجد والاهتمام وإنما نذكر بعضا من كتبه إكمالا للمرام لا إطماعا في الوصول إلى ذلك السول:
منها: كتاب جابر بن حيان وتذكرة لابن كمونة.
وكتاب الحكيم المجريطي.
وشرح الفصول لعيون بن المنذر وتصانيف الطغرائي كثيرة في هذا الفن ومعتبرة عند أربابها والكتب والرسائل في هذا الباب كثيرة لكن لا خير في الاستقصاء فيها وإنما التعرض لهذا القدر لئلا يخلو الكتاب عنها بالمرة نسأل الله تعالى خيري الدنيا والآخرة انتهى حاصله. والله أعلم بالصواب.

1 سَبَتَ, (S, M, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb) only, (S,) or سَبِتَ, (so written in a copy of the M,) [both of which are said by MF to be indicated, or implied, in the K, but this is not clearly the case,] inf. n. سَبْتٌ, (M, K, * TA,) He rested: (S, M, Msb, K: *) and ceased, or abstained, from works: (TA:) and was, or became, quiet, still, or motionless: (M, TA:) and ↓ اسبت signifies [the same, or] he was, or became, motionless: (S, TA:) Az says that سَبَتَ in the first of these senses is not known in the language of the Arabs: (TA:) [but J says that] the primary signification of سُبَاتٌ is “ rest: ” and hence the former of these verbs signifies he slept. (S.) b2: And سَبَتَتِ اليَهُودُ, (S, * A, K,) aor. ـِ (S, K) and سَبُتَ, (K,) inf. n. سَبْتٌ, (S, K,) The Jews kept, or performed, the ordinances of their سَبْت [or sabbath]: (S, K: *) or سَبَتُوا, aor. ـِ (M, Msb) and سَبُتَ, (M,) inf. n. سَبْتٌ; (Msb;) and ↓ اسبتوا; (S, M, Msb;) they entered upon the سَبْت [or sabbath]: (S, M:) or they (the Jews) ceased from seeking the means of subsistence, and the labouring to acquire gain.

And انسبت الرُّطَبُ The dates became all ripe, or ripe throughout. (M, TA.) سَبْتٌ Rest: (S, K:) and quiet, stillness, or freedom from motion. (TA.) [See 1, of which it is an inf. n.] See also سُبَاتٌ. b2: السَّبْتُ, (M, K,) or يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ, (S, Msb,) [The sabbath, or Saturday;] one of the days of the week; (M, K;) the seventh of those days: (M:) so called because the creation commenced on the first day of the week and continued to [the end of] Friday, and on the سبت there was no creation, the work having ceased thereon: or, as some say, because the Jews ceased thereon from work, and the management of affairs: (M, TA:) or because the days [of the week] end thereon: (S, TA:) Az says that he errs who asserts it to have been so called because God commanded the Children of Israel to rest thereon, and that God created the heavens and the earth in six days, whereof the last was Friday, then rested, and the work ceased, and therefore He named the seventh day يوم السبت: this, he says, is an error, because [he affirms that] سَبَتَ as meaning “ he rested ” is not known in the language of the Arabs, but signifies قَطَعَ; and rest cannot be attributed to God, because He knows not fatigue, and rest is only after fatigue and work: (TA:) the pl. [of pauc.] is أَسْبُتٌ and [of mult.] سُبُوتٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) it has no dim. (Sb, S in art. امس.) b3: سَبْتٌ also means A week; from the سَبْت to the سَبْت [i. e. from the sabbath to the sabbath]: so in the saying, in a trad., فَمَا رَأَيْنَا الشَّمْسَ سَبْتًا [And we saw not the sun for a week]: as when one says “ twenty autumns ” meaning “ twenty years: ” or it means in this instance a space of time, whether short or long. (TA.) b4: I. q. بُرْهَةٌ [i. e. A space, or period, or a long space or period,] (M, K, TA) مِنَ الدَّهْرِ [of time]: (TA:) so in the saying, أَقَمْتُ سَبْتًا [I remained, staid, dwelt, or abode, a space, or a long space, of time]; as also ↓ سَبْتَةً and ↓ سَنْبَتًا and ↓ سَنْبَتَتًا. (M, K.) b5: And i. q. دَهْرٌ [meaning Time; or a long time; or a space, or period, of time, whether long or short; &c.]; as also ↓ سُبَاتٌ. (S, M, K.) And [hence] ↓ اِبْنَا سُبَاتٍ means (assumed tropical:) The night and the day: (S, M, K:) Ibn Ahmar says, وَكُنَّا وَهُمْ كَابْنَىْ سُبَاتٍ تَفَرَّقَا سِوًى ثُمَّ كَانَا مُنْجِدًا وَتَهَامِيَا [And we were, with them, like the night and the day that parted asunder alike, then became one going towards Nejd and one going towards Tihámeh]: (S, K:) such, they say, is the meaning: (S:) or, as IB says, on the authority of Aboo-Jaafar Mohammad Ibn-Habeeb, ابنا سبات were two men, one of whom saw the other in a dream, and then one of them awoke in Nejd, and the other in Tihámeh: or they were two brothers, one of whom went to the east to see where the sun rose, and the other to the west to see where it set. (L, TA.) A2: Also A certain pace (S, M, K) of camels: (S, K:) or a quick pace: (TA:) or i. q. عَنَقٌ [q. v.]: (AA, S:) or a pace exceeding that termed العَنَقُ. (M.)

(K) b3: A man cunning, i. e. possessing intelligence, or sagacity, or intelligence mixed with craft and forecast; and excellent in judgment; or very cunning &c.; (K, TA;) silent, or lowering his eyes, looking towards the ground; (TA;) and ↓ سُبَاتٌ signifies the same. (K, TA.) b4: A man who sleeps much; (K;) i. e. كَثِيرُ السُّبَاتِ. (TA.) See also مَسْبُوتٌ.

A4: See also what next follows.

سُبْتٌ A certain plant, resembling the خِطْمِىّ [or marsh-mallow]; (Kr, M, K;) as also ↓ سَبْتٌ, (K [there expressly said to be with fet-h],) or ↓ سِبْتٌ: (M [so written in a copy of that work]:) said to be a certain plant used for tanning. (MF.) See the next paragraph.

سِبْتٌ The hides, or skins, of oxen; (M, K;) whether tanned or not tanned: so some say: (M:) or (so accord. to the M, in the K and TA “ and,” but the و is omitted in the CK,) any tanned hide; (As, AA, M, K;) said to be so called [because the tanning removes the hair,] from السَّبْتُ, “the act of shaving: ” (AA, TA:) or such. as is tanned with قَرَظ [q. v.]: (M, K:) or only ox-hides tanned: so says AHn on the authority of As and Az: (TA:) or ox-hides tanned with قَرَظ, (S, Mgh,) whereof are made [the sandals called] ↓ نِعَالٌ سِبْتيَّةٌ: (S) these are hence thus called: (Mgh:) they are sandals having no hair upon them: (M, Msb:) or sandals tanned with قرَظ: (AA, TA:) accord. to Az, they are thus called because their hair has been shaven off (سُبِتَ, i. e. حُلِقَ,) and removed by a wellknown process in tanning, (Mgh, * TA,) so that they are soft; and they are of the sandals of people that lead a life of ease and softness: (Mgh:) IAar says that they are thus called because of their having become soft by the tanning: accord. to this, they should be called ↓ سَبْتِيَّة; and so accord. to a saying of EdDáwoodee, that they are called in relation to سُوقُ السَّبْتِ [“ the Market of the Sabbath ”]: it is also said that they are called in relation to the ↓ سُبْت, with damm, which is a plant used for tanning therewith; so that they should be called ↓ سُبْتِيَّة, unless the appellation be an instance of a rel. n. deviating from its source of derivation [or unless this plant be also termed سِبْتٌ, as it is accord. to a copy of the M]: (TA:) see سُبْتٌ.

It is related of the Prophet, that he saw a man walking among the graves wearing his sandals, and said, يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتَينِ اِخْلَعْ سِبْتَيْكَ [meaning (tropical:) O wearer of the pair of sandals of سِبْت, pull off thy pair of sandals of سِبْت]: (S, * TA:) and accord. to the A, they are thus termed tropically: it is like the saying “ Such a one wears wool, and cotton, and silk; ” meaning “ garments made thereof; ” as is said in the Nh: but, as some relate it, what he said was, ↓ يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتِيَّيْنِ, the last of these words being a rel. n.; and thus it is found in the handwriting of Az, in his book. (TA.) سِبِتٌّ, (M, L, K,) like فِلِزٌّ, (TA,) [in a copy of the M erroneously written سِبْت,] A certain plant; [anethum graveolens, or dill, of the common garden-species;] an arabicized word, from [the Pers\.] شِبِتّ [or شِبِتْ]: (AHn, M, L:) or i. q. شِبِتٌّ; both words arabicized from شِوِذْ [or شِوِدْ]: (K:) asserted by some to be the same as سَنُّوتٌ [q. v.]: (M, L:) Az says that شِبِتٌّ, the name of a well-known herb, or leguminous plant, is an arabicized word; that he had heard the people of El-Bahreyn call it سِبِتٌّ, with the unpointed س, and with ت; that it is originally, in Pers\., شِوِذْ; and that it has another dial. var., namely, سبط [i. e. سِبِطٌّ]. (El-Jawáleekee, TA.) سَبْتَةٌ: see سَبْتٌ, in the middle of the paragraph.

A2: Also Goats, collectively. (K.) سَبْتَآءُ A [desert such as is termed] صَحْرَآء: (Az, K:) or أَرْضٌ سَبْتَآءُ is like صَحْرَآءُ: or a land in which are no trees: (M:) and i. q. ↓ مَسْبُوتَةٌ [i. e. a bare land; as though shorn of its herbage]: (TA:) pl. سَبَاتِىُّ. (M.) b2: Also, [in like manner] a fem. epithet, Having spreading, or expanded, ears, whether long or short. (K.) سَبْتِىٌّ One who fasts alone on the سَبْت [i. e. sabbath, or Saturday]: thus in the saying mentioned by Th, on the authority of IAar, لَا تَكُ سَبْتِيًّا [Be not thou one who fasts &c.]. (M.) نِعَالٌ سِبْتِيَّةٌ, and سَبْتِيَّةٌ, and سُبْتِيَّةٌ; and the dual. of سِبْتِىٌّ, applied to a pair of sandals: see سِبْتٌ, in four places.

سِبْتَانٌ, with kesr, Foolish, stupid, or of little sense; (K, TA;) confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course; without understanding. (TA.) سُبَاتٌ primarily signifies Rest [like سَبْتٌ]: (S, Msb:) and hence, sleep: (S, K:) or heavy sleep: (Msb:) or sleep that is hardly perceptible (خَفِىّ, M, K, [in some copies of the K, as mentioned by Freytag, خَفِيف, i. e. light,]), like a swoon: (M:) or the commencement of sleep in the head [and its continuance] until it reaches the heart: (Th, M, K:) or the sleep of one who is sick; i. e. light sleep: (TA:) and ↓ سَبْتٌ signifies the same as سُبَاتٌ. (T, TA.) Hence, in the Kur [lxxviii. 9, and in like manner the word is used in xxv. 49], وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا; (S;) i. e. قَطْعًا; as though a man, when he slept, were cut off from [the rest of] mankind: (IAar, TA:) or سبات is when one is cut off, or ceases, from motion, while the soul still remains in the body; i. e., the text means, And we have made your sleep to be rest unto you: (Zj, TA:) or we have made your sleep to be a cutting off from sensation and motion, for rest to the animal forces, and for causing their weariness to cease: or, to be death: (Bd:) or, to be rest unto your bodies by the interruption of labour, or work. (Jel.) A2: See also سَبْتٌ, latter half, in three places.

سَبُوتٌ A she-camel that goes the pace termed سَبْتٌ: or constantly going the pace termed عَنَقٌ. (M.) سَبَنْتًى, (S, M, K,) as also سَبَنْدًى, (S,) Bold, or daring; (S, M, K;) as an epithet applied to anything [i. e. man or brute]: the ى is added to render it quasi-coordinate to the class of quinqueliteral-radical words, not to denote the fem. gender, for it receives ة as a termination [to denote the fem.], becoming سَبَنْتَاةٌ; (S;) and has tenween. (TA.) A poet applies the fem. epithet to a she-camel. (S.) b2: Also The leopard; (S, M, K;) so too with ة; (AHeyth, L in art. سبد;) and so سَبَنْدًى: probably thus called because of his boldness, or daringness: (S:) or, as some ay, the lion: fem. with ة: or the fem, signifies a bold, or daring, lioness: or a she-camel of bold, or daring, breast; but this last is not of valid authority: (M:) and a beast of prey [absolutely]: (L in art. سيد:) pl. سَبَانِتُ; (K, TA;) and some of the Arabs make سَبَاتِى [or rather سَبَاتٍ] to be its pl. (TA.) b3: The fem. also, applied to a woman, signifies Sharp in tongue; or clamorous; or clamorous and foul-tongued; or long-tongued and vehemently clamorous. (TA.) سَنْبَةٌ: see سَبْتٌ, in the middle of the paragraph.

مُسْبِتٌ Motionless; not moving. (S, K.) b2: And, accord. to the L and K, Entering upon the day called السَّبْتُ [i. e. the sabbath]: but correctly, entering upon the observance of the سَبْت [or sabbath]. (TA.) مَسْبُوتٌ Affected with [the kind, or degree, or semblance, of sleep termed] سُبَات [q. v.]: (IAar, M:) or affected with a swoon: and, applied to a sick man, prostrated like him who is sleeping, generally closing his eyes: (S:) or confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course: (Msb:) and ↓ سَبْتٌ signifies the same as مَسْبُوتٌ; as in the saying, cited by As, يُصْبِحُ مَخْمُورًا وَيُمْسِى سَبْتَا [He is in the morning affected with the remains of intoxication, and he is in the evening affected with sleep, or heavy sleep, &c.]. (T, TA.) b2: Also Dead. (S, K.) A2: رَأْسٌ مَسْبُوتٌ [A head cut off.] (A.) b2: أَرْضٌ مَسْبُوتَةٌ: see سَبْتَآءُ.

رُطَبٌ مُنْسَبِتٌ Dates that have become all ripe, or ripe throughout. (S, K.) And رَطَبَةٌ مُنْسَبِتَةٌ [A date that is ripe throughout: and also] a soft date. (TA.)

(TA.) [It is said that] the primary meaning of الصَّبْغُ in the language of the Arabs is The altering [a thing]: and hence صُبِغَ الثَّوْبُ, meaning The garment, or piece of cloth, was altered in colour to blackness or redness or yellowness [&c.].

(TA.) And صَبَغَ وَلَدَهُ فِى اليَهُودِيَّةِ (assumed tropical:) He introduced his child into the Jewish communion [probably by baptism combined with circumcision: but see صِبْغَةٌ, an explanation of which seems to indicated that circumcision alone is meant in this case].

(O.) b5: And صَبَغُوهُ فِى عَيْنِهِ (assumed tropical:) They altered him in his estimation; and informed him that he had become altered from the state in which he was. (TA.) And it is said that صَبَغُونِى فِى عَيْنِكَ and صَبَغُونِى عِنْدَكَ mean They pointed me out to thee as one who would accomplish what thou desiredst of me; from the saying of the Arabs, صَبَغْتُ الرَّجُلَ بِعَيْنِى and بِيَدِى I pointed at the man with my eye and with my hand: (O, K: *) but Az says that this is a mistake; that the Arabs when they mean thus say صَبَعْتُ, with the unpointed ع.

And النَّخْلَةُ ↓ اصبغت (tropical:) The palm-tree showed ripening in its dates; (O, K, TA;) as also صبّغت, inf. n. as above: (K:) or, accord. to Az, تصبيغ in relation to the palm-tree [itself] is not known.

(O.) 5 تصبّغ فِى الدِّينِ is from الصِّبْغَةُ, (Lh, O, K,) and means (assumed tropical:) He became settled, or established, in religion: (TK:) and so تصبّغ صِبْغَةً حَسَنَةً; expl. by Z as meaning (assumed tropical:) He was, or became, in a good state [in respect of religion].

(O, K. *) The Prophet is related to have said, أَكْذَبُ النَّاسِ الصَّبَّاغُونَ وَالصَّوَّاغُونَ or مِنْ أَكْذَبِ النَّاسِ الخ [Which may mean The most lying of men, or of the most lying of men, are the dyers and the goldsmiths; or (assumed tropical:) those who colour, and those who transform, information, or discourse]: El-Khat- tábee says, the meaning is, that the persons who practise the two crafts to which these words relate make many promises as to returning the goods, and often break their promises; wherefore they are said to be of the most lying of men; not that every one of them is one who lies: but he adds that it has been said to mean the moulding and colouring of speech with falsehood. (O.) نَاقَةٌ صَابِغٌ, (O, K,) without ة, (O,) A she-camel having her udder full, and goodly in colour. (O, K.) b2: And إِبِلٌ صَابِغَةٌ فِى الرِّعْىِ [meaning Camels putting their heads into the pasture], with ة. (O. [See 1, last sentence but one.]) أَصْبَغُ (assumed tropical:) A horse white in the forelock, (AO, S, Mgh, O, K,) all of it: (AO, Mgh: [see also أَسْعَفُ:]) or white in the extremities of his tail: (S, O:) or white in the extremities of the ear: (K:) when the whiteness is in his tail, he is termed أَشْعَل: or, accord. to AO, it signifies also white in the whole of the tail, including its extremities. (TA.) And (tropical:) A bird white in the tail: (S, O, K, TA:) or, accord. to the book entitled “ Ghareeb el-Hamám ” by El-Hasan Ibn-' Abd-Allah ElIsbahánee El-Kátib, white in the whole of the head; but used in the former sense by the keepers of pigeons. (TA.) And [the fem.] صَبْغَآءُ (assumed tropical:) A sheep or goat (شَاة, S, O, K) or a ewe (Az, TA) white in the extremity of its tail, (Az, S, O, K, TA,) the rest of it (i. e. of the animal) being black.

(TA.) b3: Also, (applied to a man, O,) (tropical:) One who voids his excrement (O, K, TA) in his clothes (K, TA) when he is beaten (O, K, TA) and when he is frightened: mentioned by Z. (TA.) b4: and صَبْغَآءُ, (assumed tropical:) A certain tree, or plant, (شَجَرَة,) like the ثُمَام [which is applied to several species of panic grass], having a white fruit, growing in sands: (K:) [but this seems to have been taken from three different explanations, here following:] accord. to Aboo-Ziyád, a certain tree, or plant, that grows in the sands, resembling the ضَعَة [which is applied to a species of the ثُمَام], which is one of the abodes of the gazelles in the hot season, lurking-places being excavated by them at its roots: accord. to another, of the Arabs of the desert, it is like the ثُمَام, but the ضَعَة is larger in the leaves, and of a brighter green: accord. to Aboo-Nasr, a certain tree, or plant, having a white fruit. (O.) And, (O, K,) as some say, (O,) (assumed tropical:) A bunch of herbage, of which, when it comes up, the upper portions are green on the side next the sun, and white on the side next the shade. (O, K.) A2: Also (i. e. أَصْبَغ) The greatest of torrents. (Ibn-' Abbád, O, K.) [In this sense, though used as a subst., it seems to be, as in other senses, imperfectly decl., being originally an epithet: if not originally an epithet, it might, accord. to some authorities, be perfectly decl.]

مُصْبِغٌ [without ة] (tropical:) A palm-tree (نَخْلَةٌ) showing ripening in its dates. (O, TA.) مَصْبَغَةٌ A dye-house: so in the language of the present day.]

مُصَبِّغٌ Dyed much. (O.) In the phrase ثِيَابٌ مُصَبَّغَةٌ, [it is said that] the epithet is with teshdeed لِلْكَثْرَةِ [which means to denote muchness, and also to denote application to many objects, so that it may be rendered either Garments much dyed, or simply dyed garments]. (S.) مُصَبِّغٌ, like مُسَبِّغٌ, which is the more commonly used, [each without ة,] applied to a she-camel, (assumed tropical:) Casting her young one when its hair has grown. (Az, TA.) مَصْــبُوغٌ: see صَبِيغٌ.

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.

A2: Also n. un. of سَلَامٌ applied to a kind of trees [described above]. (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]. (S.) b3: And (tropical:) A means to a thing; (K, TA;) because it leads to another thing like as does the سُلَّم upon which one ascends. (TA.) b4: And السُّلَّمُ is the name of The horse of Zebbán (in the CK Zeiyán) Ibn-Seiyár. (K.) سَالِمٌ: see سَلِيمٌ; and see سَلَامٌ, near the middle of the paragraph. [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.) A2: And الاسلم [app. الأَسْلَمُ] signifies, like الطفى [i. e. الطَّفْىُ]; The leaves (خُوص) of the دَوْم [or Theban palm]. (Ibn-Beytár, app. from AHn, cited by De Sacy in his Chrest. 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.
