1 رَهَنَ, (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,)
aor. ـَ (
Msb,)
inf. n. رَهْنٌ, (
S,
TA,) or رُهُونٌ, (
Msb,) It (a thing,
S,
Msb,
TA) continued, subsisted, lasted, endured, remained, or remained fixed or stationary; it was, or became, permanent, constant, firm, steady, stead fast, stable, fixed, fast, settled, or established. (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,
TA.) This is the primary signification. (
Mgh,
TA. *)
b2: Hence, (
Mgh,) رَهَنَ بِالمَكَانِ (
tropical:) He remained, stayed, dwelt, or abode, in the place. (
A,
Mgh,
TA.)
b3: And رَهَنَ, (
JK,
S,
K,)
aor. ـَ (
K,
TA,) or ـُ (
JK, [but this I think to be a mis take,])
inf. n. رُهُونٌ, (
K,) said of a man, and of a camel, (
JK,
S, *
TA,) and of any beast (
TA,) He was, or became, lean, or emaciated; (
JK,
S,
K,
TA;) and fatigued, tired, weary, or jaded. (
JK,
TA.) You say, رَكِبَ حَتَّى رَهَنَ He rode until he became lean, or emaciated. (
ISh,
TA. [See رَاهِنٌ.])
A2: As trans., see 4, first signification.
b2: [Hence,] as a law term, رَهْنٌ signifies The putting, or placing, an article of real property [to remain] as a pledge, or security, or making it to be such, for a debt that is obligatory or that will become obligatory. (
TA.) You say, رَهَنَهُ الشَّىْءَ, and رَهَنَهُ عِنْدَهُ, (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,)
aor. ـَ (
K,)
inf. n. رَهْنٌ (
Msb,
TA) [and رَهِينَةٌ,
q. v. voce رَهْنٌ]; and ↓ ارهنهُ الشَّىْءَ; (
S,
K;) all signify the same; (
S;) i. e. He deposited the thing with him (
Msb,
K) [as a pledge] to be in lieu of that which he had taken, or received, from him: (
K:) [i. e. he pledged the thing to him, or with him:] and رَهَنْتُ المَتَاعَ بِالدَّيْنِ,
inf. n. رَهْنٌ, I restricted the commodity or placed it in custody, for, or by reason of, the debt; and بالدين ↓ ارهنتهُ is a
dial. var. thereof, but of rare occurrence, and disallowed by those who are held in esteem: (
Msb:) for, properly, they say, (
Msb,) زَيْدًا الثَّوْبَ ↓ أَرْهَنْتُ signifies I gave to Zeyd the garment, or piece of cloth, in order that he should deposit it as a pledge (
Msb,
K *) with some one. (
Msb.) 'Abd-Allah Ibn Hemmám Es-Saloolee says, (
S,) or Hemmám Ibn-Murrah, (
TA,) مَالِكَا ↓ نَجَوْتُ وَ أَرْهَنْتُهُمْ فَلَمَّا خَشِيتُ أَظَافِيرَهُمْ [And when I dreaded their nails, I escaped, and gave them, or left with them, as a pledge,
Málik]: thus, says
Th, all relate the verse, except
As, who says وَ أَرْهَنُهُمْ مالكا [i. e. leaving with them, as a pledge,
Málik]: he likens this phrase to the say ing قُمْتُ وَ أَصُكُّ وَجْهَهُ; and this is a good way of explaining it; for the و is that which is a deno tative of state; the meaning being صَاكًّا وَجْهَهُ: [
accord. to the former reading, in the opinion of
Th,] the poet means I left
Málik remaining with them; not as a pledge; because [when the leaving a thing as a pledge is meant, in his opinion,] one does not say, الشَّىْءَ ↓ أَرْهَنْتُ, but only رَهَنْتُهُ. (
S,
TA.) [See, however, 4.] You say also, رَهَنَهُ عَنْهُ,
inf. n. رَهْنٌ, meaning He made him, or it, to be a pledge in lieu of him, or it: a poet, asserted by
IJ to be a pagan, says, اِرْهَنْ بَنِيكَ عَنْهُمُ أَرْهَنْ بَنِىْ [Make thou thy sons to be pledges in lieu of them: in that case I will make my sons to be pledges: بَنِى being for بَنِىَّ]. (
TA.) And رَهَنْتُهُ لِسَانِى (assumed
tropical:) [I made my tongue to be as though it were a pledge to him, to be restrained, or to be used, for his sake or benefit]: in this case one should not say ↓ أَرْهَنْتُهُ; (
IAar,
K;) though one says thus of a garment, or piece of cloth, [&c.,] as well as رَهَنْتُهُ. (
TA.) 3 رَاهُنْتُ فُلَانًا عَلَى كَذَا, (
S,
Msb,)
inf. n. مُرَاهَنَةٌ, (
S,) or رِهَانٌ, (
Msb,) or both, (
K, and so in a copy of the
S,) I laid a bet, or wager, or stake, with such a one, for such a thing, (
S,
Msb,
K, *) mostly (
TA) said in relation to horses running a race, (
JK,
TA, *) to be taken by him who should outstrip, or overcome. (
Msb.)
b2: The
inf. ns. also signify (
tropical:) The contending [of two persons] to outstrip [in a race] upon horses, (
K,
TA,) and otherwise. (
TA.) Hence the
prov., هُمَا كَفَرَسَىْ رِهَانٍ [explained in art. فرس]. (
JK.) 4 ارهن He made (a thing,
Msb,) to continue, subsist, last, endure, remain, or remain fixed or stationary; to be, or become, permanent, can stant, firm, steady, steadfast, stable, fixed, fast, settled, or established; (
S, *
Mgh, *
Msb,
K; *) and so ↓ رَهَنَ; (
K;) but the former is the more ap proved: (
TA:) and also he found it to be so. (
Msb.) You say, ارهن لَهُمُ الطَّعَامَ, (
T,
S,
K,
TA,) and الشَّرَابَ, (
T,
S,
TA,) and المَالَ, (
TA,) (
tropical:) He continued, or made permanent, to them the food, (
T,
S,
K,
TA,) and the beverage, (
T,
S,
TA,) and the property. (
TA.) [And
accord. to an expla nation of أُرْهِنَتْ (referring to dates), by 'Alee Ibn Hamzeh, cited in a marginal note in a copy of the
S, in art. أَرْهَنَ, وهب signifies He prepared food, and continued it, or made it permanent.]
b2: [Hence ارهنهُ as used by some in another sense of رَهَنَهُ:] see 1, in six places. [That it is allowable to use it thus may be inferred from phrases here following.]
b3: You say, أَرْهَنْتُ مَالِى I staked my property. (
JK.) And أَرْهَنُوا بَيْنَهُمْ خَطَرًا They gave, of their own free will, what the party approved, whatever were its amount, to be to them a stake at a race. (
TA.) And أَرْهَنْتُ بِهِ وَلَدِى (
S,
K, *)
inf. n. إِرْهَانٌ, (
S,) (assumed
tropical:) I made my children to be as a stake for him, or it. (
S,
K. *) And ارهنهُ لِلْمَوْتِ (assumed
tropical:) He resigned him to death. (
IAar,
TA.) And ارهن المَيِّتَ القَبْرَ (
tropical:) He deposited the dead body in the grave [as a pledge to be rendered up on the day of resurrection]. (
K,
TA.)
b4: Accord. to
Az, (
S,
TA, in one copy of the
S it is
A'Obeyd,) أَرْهَنْتُ فِى السِّلْعَةِ signifies I bought the commodity for a dear, or an excessive, price; (
S,
K,
TA;) gave largely for it until I obtained it: (
TA:)
accord. to
ISk, I paid in advance for the commodity;
syn. أَسْلَفْتُ; (
S,
TA;) and in the
T it is said, [and in like manner in the
JK,] that ارهن فِى كَذَا وَ كَذَا signifies اسلف فِيهِ: (
TA:) [in the
K it is said that أَرْهَنَهُ signifies أَسْلَفَهُ, as though it meant he lent him a sum of money &c.:]
accord. to
Er-Rághib, the proper meaning [of إِرْهَانٌ] is one's giving a com modity before [the full payment of] the price, and so making it to be pledged for the completion of its price. (
TA.)
A2: ارهنهُ also signifies He, or it, weakened him: (
K:) [like أَوْهَنَهُ:] and rendered him lean, or emaciated. (
TA.) And ارهن اللّٰهُ قُوَّتَهُ God weakened him;
syn. أَوْهَنَهُ. (
JK.) 6
تراهنــا They two laid bets, wagers, or stakes, each with the other;
syn. تَوَاضَعَا الرُّهُونَ. (
TA.) And
تراهن القَوْمُ The party contended together, every one of them laying a bet, wager, or stake, in order that the person outstripping should take the whole when he overcame. (
Msb.) 8 ارتهن مِنْهُ He took, or received, from him a pledge. (
K.) [Or] ارتهنهُ He took, or received, it as a pledge: (
JK,
Mgh:) or ارتهنهُ مِنْهُ he took, or received, it from him; namely, a pledge. (
Msb.)
b2: [
Accord. to Freytag, ارتهنهُ بِهِ signifies He had him, or held him, as a pledge to him for it. And اُرْتُهِنَ He, or it, was given as a pledge. But for neither of these has he mentioned any authority.]
10 إِسْتَرْهَنَ [استرهنهُ He asked him, or desired him, to pledge a thing with him: and, to give a pledge.] You say, اِسْتَرْهَنَنِى كَذَا فَرَهَنْتُهُ عِنْدَهُ [He asked me, or desired me, to pledge such a thing, or to deposit such a thing as a pledge, and I pledged it with him, or deposited it with him as a pledge]. (
Mgh.) رَهْنٌ, originally an
inf. n., (
Msb,) is
syn. with ↓ مَرْهُونٌ; (
Mgh,
Msb;) i. e. (
Msb) it signifies [A pledge;] a thing deposited with a person (
Msb, *
K) to be in lieu of a thing that has been taken, or received, from him; (
K;) or a thing that is deposited as a security for a debt: and ↓ رِهَانٌ has a similar meaning, but is specially applied to a thing that is deposited as a bet, or wager, or stake; and is likewise originally an
inf. n.: (
Er-Rághib,
TA:) ↓ رَهِينَةٌ, also, is
syn. with رَهْنٌ [as meaning the act of giving as a pledge], like as شَتِيمَةٌ is
syn. with شَتْمٌ; the ة being added to give intensiveness to the significa tion: then, like رَهْنٌ, it is used as
syn. with مَرْهُونٌ [in the sense explained above, as will be seen in what follows in this paragraph]; (
IAth,
TA;) [i. e.] رَهِينَةٌ is an
inf. n. like شَتِيمَةٌ, applied to denote the
pass. part. n. [used as a
subst. pro perly so termed] like رَهْنٌ, not as an
epithet; (
Bd in lxxiv. 41;) [or, in other words,] رَهِينَةٌ signifies anything by reason of which a thing [such as a debt or the like] is restricted, or appro priated, to oneself; as also ↓ مُرْتَهَنَةٌ: (
K: [I here follow two copies of the
K, in which it is said, كُلُّ مَا احْتُبِسَ بِهِ شَىْءٌ فَرَهِينَةٌ وَ مُرْتَهَنَةٌ: in the
CK, and in the copy of the
K followed in the
TA, فَرَهِينُهُ وَ مُرْتَهَنُهُ, which perverts the meaning, though ↓ رَهِينٌ and ↓ مُرْتَهَنٌ may be used in the same sense as رَهِينَةٌ and مُزْتَهَنَةٌ, as will be seen in the course of this paragraph: and in the
TA, in the place of احْتُبِسَ, is put يحبس, meaning يُحْبَسُ: there is, however, this difference between ↓ رَهِينَةٌ and ↓ مُرْتَهَنَةٌ; that the former properly signifies a thing deposited as a pledge; and the latter, a thing taken, or received, as a pledge:]) the
pl. of رَهْنٌ is رِهَانٌ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and رُهُونٌ (
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and رُهُنٌ, (
Mgh,
K,) this last said to be a
pl. of رَهْنٌ by Aboo-' Amr Ibn-El-' Alà, but disap proved by
Akh, because a word of the measure فَعْلٌ has not a
pl. of the measure فُعُلٌ except in rare and
anomalous instances, though he says that it may be [as it is said to be in the
Msb]
pl. of رِهَانٌ, which is
pl. of رَهْنٌ, (
S,) and
Fr says that رُهُنٌ is
pl. of رِهَانٌ, but this is denied in the
M, because any
pl. may not be pluralized except when there is express authority for it and when the case does not admit of any other decision; (
TA;) and رُهْنٌ, also, is another
pl. of رَهْنٌ, (
TA,) [or rather it is a contraction of رُهُنٌ;] and another
pl. of رَهْنٌ [or rather a
quasi-pl. n.] is ↓ رَهِينٌ, (
IJ,
K,) like as عَبِيدٌ is of عَبْدٌ: (
TA:) the
pl. of ↓ رَهِينَةٌ is رَهَائِنُ. (
S,
K.) غَلِقَ الرَّهْنُ بِمَا فِيهِ. [The pledge became, or has become, per manent as a possession, with what was, or is, comprised in it,] is a
prov., applied to him who has fallen into a case from which he cannot hope to escape: it is said in a
trad., لَا يَغْلَقُِ الرَّهْنُ, (
Meyd,) [i. e. The pledge shall not remain, or let not the pledge remain, in the hand of its receiver when its depositer is able to release it; for] لا is here either negative or prohibitive: you say, غَلِقَ الرَّهْنُ,
aor. ـْ
inf. n. غُلُوقٌ [or غَلَقٌ], meaning The pledge remained in the hand of the receiver when the depositor was able to release it: (
Nh, cited in a copy of the “
Jámi' es-Sagheer: ”) the
trad. means that the receiver of the pledge shall not have a right to it when the depositer has not released it within a certain time: for it was a custom in the Time of Ignorance for the receiver to keep possession of the pledge in this case; but El-Islám abolished it. (
Meyd, *
Nh.) Yousay also, هُوَ رَهْنٌ بِكَذَا and بكذا ↓ رَهِينَةٌ He, or it, is [a person, or thing,] pledged for such a thing: (
IAth,
TA:) or taken [as a pledge] for such a thing; as also ↓ رَهِينٌ and ↓ مُرْتَهَنٌ. (
TA.) and أَنَا رَهْنٌ بِكَذَا and ↓ رَهِينٌ and ↓ رَهِينَةٌ I am taken [as a pledge] for such a thing. (
Mgh.) and [hence,] أَنَا لَكَ رَهْنٌ بِكَذَا (
JK,
TA) and ↓ رَهِينَةٌ (
TA) I am responsible, or a surety, to thee for such a thing. (
JK,
TA.) And بِقَيْدِهِ ↓ رِجْلُهُ رَهِينَةٌ [His leg, or foot, is a pledge for the safe-keeping of his shackle: for if the meaning were مَرْهُونَةٌ it would be رَهِينٌ, without ة]. (
TA.) And الخَلْقُ المَوْتِ ↓ رَهَائِنُ [Mankind, or all created beings, are the pledges of death]. (
TA.) And هُوَ رَهْنُ يَدِ المَنِيَّةِ [He is the pledge of the hand of death, or of fate, or destiny]; said of one when he has sought, or courted, death. (
TA.) And يَدِى لَكَ رَهْنٌ [My hand is a pledge to thee]; by which is meant responsibility, or suretiship. (
TA.) and قَبْرٍ ↓ إِنَّهُ لَرَهِينُ [Verily he is the pledge of a grave, which will render him up on the day of resurrection]. (
TA.) It is said in the
Kur lxxiv. 41, ↓ كُلُّ نَفْسٍ بِمَا كَسَبَتْ رَهِينَةٌ, meaning [Every soul is a thing] pledged with God [for what it shall have wrought; its works being regarded as a debt, for which it will be either released or held in custody to be punished everlastingly]: رهينة being an
inf. n. like شَتِيمَةٌ applied to denote the
pass. part. n. [in a manner before mentioned] like رَهْنٌ; for if it were an
epithet [i. e. used in the proper sense of a
pass. part. n.] the word would be رَهِينٌ. (
Bd.) And in lii. 21 of the same, كُلُّ
↓ امْرِئٍ بِمَا كَسَبَ رَهِينٌ, i. e. [Every man is] pledged (مَرْهُونٌ,
Bd,
Jel) with God (عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ) for what he shall have wrought; so that if he have done good, He will release him; but other wise, He will destroy [or hold in confinement and punish] him; (
Bd;) or to be punished for evil, and recompensed for good. (
Jel.) And it is said in a
trad., بِعَقِيقَتِهِ ↓ كُلُّ غُلَامٍ رَهِينَةٌ [Every boy that is born is a pledge for his عقيقة, i. e. for the victim that is to be sacrificed for him when his head is shaven the first time; which is com monly regarded as his ransom from the fire of Hell]: i. e., the عقيقة is absolutely necessary for him; wherefore he is likened, when not released from it, to a pledge in the hand of the receiver: El-Khattábee says that the best explanation of it is that of Ahmad Ibn-Hambal; that if the عقيقة be not sacrificed for the boy and he die an infant, he will not intercede for his parents. (
TA.)
b2: See also what next follows.
هُوَ رِهْنُ مَالٍ, (

S, *
Msb;) originally مَرْهُونٌ بِالدَّيْنِ [or بِدَيْنٍ]; (
Msb;) and ↓ رَهِينٌ signifies the same; (
S,
Msb;) and the
fem. of this [or rather the
subst. formed from it, for when it is used as a
