إِلَى شَىْءٌ, (S, MA, K,) [aor. and] inf. n. as above, He drew, put, or brought, together [and joined or adjoined] a thing to a thing. (MA, K.) And ضَمَمْتُهُ إِلَى صَدْرِى [I drew him, or pressed him, to my bosom;] I embraced him. (TA.) And أَنْفُسَهُمْ] ضَمَّ القَوْمُ, being app. understood, or perhaps it is correctly ضُمَّ,] The people, or party, collected themselves together, or became collected. (TA.) And اَللَّهُمَّ اضْمُمْ نَشَرِى (assumed tropical:) O God, compose what is discomposed, or disorganized, [lit. bring together what is scattered,] of my affairs. (K * and TA in art. نشر.) And ضُمَّ جَنَاحَكَ عَنِ النَّاسِ (assumed tropical:) [Contract thy side from men;] meaning be thou gentle, courteous, easy to deal with, or compliant, to men. (TA.) And ضُمَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الأَنَامِلُ The ends of the fingers were drawn together upon it. (Ham p. 21. [See also a similar phrase in what follows, with the verb in the act. form, virtually meaning the same.]) b2: [Also He compacted it: and he compressed it. b3: And He, or it, comprised it; or enclosed it: and he grasped it: as also ضَمَّ عَلَيْهِ, in both of these senses.] You say, ضَمَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الأَنَامِلُ The ends of the fingers grasped it. (Ham p. 21. [See a similar phrase above.]) And ضَمَّ عَلَى المَالِ He took [or grasped] all the property. (TA.) and ضَمَّ مِنْ مَالِهِ He took of his property. (TA.) b4: [ضَمَّ الحَرْفَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, a conventional phrase in lexicology and grammar, He pronounced the letter with the vowel-sound termed ضَمّ: and he marked the letter with the sign of that vowel-sound.]3 ضامّهُ, (S, MA, K, TA,) inf. n. مُضَامَّةٌ, (TA,) He became, or drew, near, or close, to him; he became conjoined with him; (MA;) i. q. إِلَيْهِ ↓ انضمّ; (S, * MA, K; *) and ↓ تضامّ. (K.) And ضَامَمْتُ الرَّجُلَ I continued conjoined with the man occupied in one affair. (TA.) and ضامّ الشَّىْءُ إِلَى الشَّىْءِ The thing became [adjoined to the thing, or] conjoined with the thing. (TA.) See also 6.4 أَضْمَمْتُهُ كِتَابًا إِلَى أَخِى [app. I made him, or it, to be accompanied by, or I made it to comprise, a letter to my brother]. (TA.) 5 تَضَمَّمْتُهُ I took it, or devoured it, altogether. (TA in art. عب.) [See also R. Q. 1.]6 تَضَامُّوا They became, or drew, near, or close, together, or one to another; or became conjoined, one with another. (S, MA, TA. [See also 8.]) Hence the saying in a trad., لَا تَضَامُّونَ فِى رُؤْيَتِهِ [originally تَتَضَامُّونَ]; but some relate it otherwise, saying ↓ لا تُضَامُّونَ; and some, لا تُضَامُونَ, from الضَّيْمُ; (TA in this art.;) and some, لا تُضَارُّونَ; and some, لا تُضَارُونَ, from الضَّيْرُ. (TA in art. ضر: for explanations, see 3 in that art.) See also 3 above. [Hence,] تضامّ فِى

سُجُودِهِ وَجُلُوسِهِ [He drew himself together in his prostration and his sitting, in prayer]. (S, * and K in art. حفز.) 7 انضمّ It was, or became, drawn, put, brought, or gathered, together; collected; or contracted. (Msb.) انضمّ إِلَيْهِ is syn. with ضَامَّهُ, q. v. (S, * MA, K. *) [And it signifies also He adjoined himself, got him or got himself, betook him or betook himself, repaired, or resorted, to him, or it. And انضمّ عَلَيْهِ It became drawn together upon it. انضمّ الى كَذَا is expl. in the TA as meaning اِنْطَوَى: but I think that الى is evidently a mistranscription for عَلَى; and that the meaning therefore is, It infolded such a thing, or enclosed it, like اضطمّ عليه, q. v.]8 اضطمّ الشَّىْءَ He drew, brought, or gathered, the thing to himself: (K:) the ط is substituted for ت because of the ض. (Az, TA.) b2: Hence, in a trad., اضطمّ بَعْضُهُمْ إِلَى بَعْضٍ [They drew near, or close, one to another]. (TA. [See also 6.]) And, in another trad., اضطمّ عَلَيْهِ النَّاسُ The people, or men, pushed, pressed, crowded, or thronged, together upon him. (TA.) b3: and اضطمّ عَلَيْهِ It comprised it, or enclosed it. (K.) You say, اِضْطَمَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضُّلُوعُ The ribs comprised it, or enclosed it. (S. [See also 7.]) R.

[See also 5.] b2: And ضَمْضَمَ He (a man, TA) encouraged his heat; or became courageous in heart. (K, accord. to different copies.) b3: And, said of a lion, He [roared, or] uttered a cry: (K, TA:) inf. n. ضَمْضَمَةٌ. (TA.) ضَمٌّ inf. n. of 1 [q. v.].

(TA.) ضَمَّةٌ [inf. n. un. of 1 (q. v.): and as such signifying] An embracing. (TA.) b2: Also A number of horses assembled from every quarter for a race: (K, TA:) thus called because so assembled.

(S, Msb.) [Hence,] you say, حَفِظَ المَالَ He kept and tended, or pastured and defended, the camels or the like. (K.) [And حَفِظَ حُرْمَةَ صَاحِبِهِ He was regardful of everything entitled to reverence, respect, honour, or defence, in the character and appertenances of his companion, or friend.] and حَفِظَ السِّرَّ He kept the secret.

أَيْمَانَكُمْ, accord. to one of the modes of interpreting it; i. e. And keep ye your oaths from being used, or uttered, on, or for, ordinary, mean, or vile, occasions, or purposes; agreeably with what is said in ii. 224 of the Kur, where ordinary and frequent swearing by God is forbidden.

(TA.) You say, ↓ فُلَانٌ حَفِيظُنَا عَلَيْكُمْ i. e. حَافِظُنَا [Such a one is our keeper over you]. (TA.) It is said in the S that ↓ حَفِيظٌ is syn. with ↓ مُحَافِظٌ; [but this seems to be a mistranscription for حَافِظٌ;] and hence (it is there added) the saying in the Kur [vi. 104, and xi. 88], ↓ وَمَا أَنَا عَلَيْكُمْ بِحَفِيظٍ [And I am not a defender, or a watcher, or, as I rather think, a keeper, over you]. (TA.) You say also, رَجُلٌ حَافِظٌ لِدِينِهِ وَأَمَانَتِهِ وَيَمِينِهِ [A man who is a keeper, &c., of his religion and his deposite and his oath]; and ↓ حَفِيظٌ likewise: (Msb:) but حَافِظٌ لِيَمِينِهِ signifies also who keeps his oath from being used, or uttered, on, or for, ordinary, mean, or vile, occasions, or purposes. (Mgh.) And رَجُلٌ حَافِظُ العَيْنِ A man whom sleep does not overcome: (Lh, K:) because the eye guards the person when sleep does not overcome it. (TA.) ↓ الحَفِيظُ is also a name of God; meaning [The Preserver of all things;] He from whose preservation nothing is excluded, (K, * TA,) not even a thing of the weight of a ذَرَّة [q. v.], (TA,) in the heavens, nor on the earth; (K, TA;) who preserves from oblivion, for, or against, his creatures and his servants, what they do of good or evil; who preserves the heavens and the earth by his power, and whom the preservation of both does not burden. (TA.) And الحَفَظَةُ is an appellation of The recording angels, who write down the actions of the sons of Adam, or mankind; (S, K;) as also الحَافِظُونَ. (K.) ↓ حَفِيظٌ is sometimes trans.; as in the saying, هُوَ حَفِيظٌ عِلْمَكَ وَعِلْمَ غَيْرِكَ [He knows by heart thy science, and the science of others beside thee]. (TA.) [القُوَّةُ الحَافِظَةُ, and simply الحَافِظَةُ, signify The retentive faculty of the mind; retentiveness of mind; or memory; as also ↓ الحَفْظُ, for حِفْظُ القَلْبِ.] b2: حَافِظٌ also signifies (tropical:) A distinct and direct road; (En-Nadr, K, TA;) not one that is apparent at one time and then ceases to be traceable.

(TA.) مَحْفُوظٌ Kept, preserved, guarded, or taken care of, because of the high estimation in which it is held; as also ↓ حَفِيظٌ. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [lxxxv. 21 and 22], بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَجِيدٌ فِى لَوْحٍ مَحْفُوظٍ (TA) [Nay, it is a glorious Kur-án, written upon a tablet preserved] from the devils and from the alteration of anything thereof: (Jel:) or, accord. to one reading, مَحْفُوظٌ, this epithet being thus made to relate to the Kur-án. (TA.) b2: [Hence, as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates, and then as a subst.,] A young child; in the dial. of Mekkeh; as a term of good omen: pl. مَحَافِيظُ. (TA.) b3: [Also Kept, or retained, in the mind, or memory; known, or learned, by heart. Hence the phrase,] عَرَضَ مَحْفُوظَاتِهِ عَلَى فُلَانٍ He showed the things which he kept, or retained, in his mind, or memory, or which he knew, or had learned, by heart, to such a one. (TA.) مُحَافِظٌ: see حَافِظٌ.

أَحَسَّ: see 4, throughout. b2: حَسَّ لَهُ, first Pers\.

حَسَسْتُ, aor. ـِ (S, K;) and first Pers\. حَسِسْتُ, [aor. ـَ (Yaakoob, S, K;) inf. n. حِسٌّ (S, K) and حَسٌّ, (K,) or the latter is inf. n. of both verbs, but the former is a simple subst., (TA,) He was, or became, tender, or compassionate, towards him: (S, K:) [lit., he felt for him:] ISd says that, for رَقَقْتُ لَهُ, the explanation of حسستُ له, he found in the book of Kr the verb written with ف and ق; but that the former [?] is the right: (TA:) or he lamented for him; (Aboo-Málik, TA;) as also لَهُ ↓ حَسْحَسَ. (K, * TA.) The Arabs say, إِنَّ العَامِرِىَّ لَيَحِسُّ لِلسَّعْدِىِّ Verily the 'Ámiree is tender, or compassionate, towards the Saadee; because of the relationship that subsists between them. (TA.) And Abu-l-Jarráh El-'Okeylee said, مَارَأَيْتُ عُقَيْلِيًّا إِلَّا حَسَسْتُ لَهُ I have not seen an 'Okeylee without my feeling tenderness, or compassion, towards him; (S, TA;) for the same reason. (TA.) [See حَاسَّةٌ, second signification.]

A2: حَسَّهُ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. حَسٌّ,] He made his حِسّ [i. e. sound, or motion,] to cease. (Bd in iii. 145.) b2: Hence, (Bd, ubi suprà,) حَسَّهُمْ, aor. ـُ (S, A, Bd, Msb,) inf. n. حَسٌّ, (Msb, K,) [and app., accord. to Fr, حِسٌّ, or this may be a simple subst.,] He slew them: (Bd, Msb, K:) and extirpated them: (K:) or he slew them quickly: (A, TA:) or he extirpated them by slaughter: (Aboo-Is-hák, S:) or he slew them with a quick and extirpating slaughter: or with a vehement slaughter: (TA:) it occurs in the Kur iii. 145: (S, A:) accord. to Fr, حِسٌّ, [so in the TA,] in this instance, is the act of slaying and destroying. (TA.) [Hence, حُسَّ app. signifies It was utterly destroyed, so that nothing was left in the place thereof; and so ↓ احتسّ; for it is said that] حِسٌّ and اِحْتِسَاسٌ, with respect to anything, signify أَنْ لَا يُتْرَكَ فِى

المَكَانِ شَىْءٌ. (TA.) Also حَسَّهُمْ, aor. as above, He trod them under foot, and despised them. (TA.) And حَسَّ البَرْدُ الجَرَادَ The cold killed the locusts. (S.) b3: [Hence,] الجَرَادُ تَحُسُّ الأَرْضَ The locusts eat the herbage of the land.

[See a proverb, voce حَشَّ.] Hence the saying of Zeyd Ibn-Soohán, on the day of the battle of the Camel, when he was carried off from the field, about to die, اِدْفِنُونِى فِى ثِيَابِى وَلَا تَحُسُّوا عَنِّى تُرَابًا (tropical:) [Bury ye me in my clothes, and] shake not off any dust from me. (S, TA.) 2 حَسَّسْتُ الشَّىْءَ [a mistake in the CK for حَسَسْتُ]: see 4.4 احسّ الشَّىْءَ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِحْسَاسٌ, (Msb,) He perceived, or became sensible of, (وَجَدَ,) the حِسّ (i. e. motion or sound, TA) of the thing: (S, K, TA:) he knew the thing by means of [any of] the senses: (IAth, accord. to his explanation of الإِحْسَاسُ as signifying العِلْمُ بِالحَوَاسِّ:) he ascertained the thing as one ascertains a thing that is perceived by the senses: (Bd in iii. 45:) he knew the thing; or he perceived it by means of any of the senses; syn. عَلِمَ بِهِ, (Msb,) and عَلِمَهُ, and عَرَفَهُ, and شَعَرَ بِهِ; (TA;) as also ↓ حَسَّهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. حَسٌّ and حِسٌّ and حَسِيسٌ; (TA, in explanation of the saying in the K that حَسَسْتُ الشَّىْءَ [in the CK erroneously ↓ حَسَّسْتُ] signifies the same as أَحْسَسْتُهُ;) and in like manner احسّ بِهِ is syn. with شَعَرَ بِهِ; (L, Msb;) and so is بِهِ ↓ حَسَّ, aor. ـُ inf. n. حِسٌّ (L, Msb) and حَسٌّ and حَسِيسٌ; (L;) or حِسٌّ is a simple subst.: (M, L:) accord. to Fr, إِحْسَاسٌ is syn. with وُجُودٌ; and Zj says that the meaning of احسّ is عَلِمَ and وَجَدَ: (TA:) or احسّ signifies he perceived, or became sensible of; syn. وَجَدَ: and he thought, or opined: (Akh, S, K:) and he saw; syn. أَبْصَرَ: and he knew: (K:) and is trans. in these senses by itself, (Akh, S,) or by means of بِ: (TA:) and أَحْسَسْتُ بِهِ signifies I knew it certainly; was certain, or sure, of it; (S;) as also به ↓ حَسِسْتُ, (S, K,) with kesr; (K;) speaking of news, or tidings: (S:) and for أَحْسَسْتُ, some say أَحْسَيْتُ, (S, Msb, K,) changing the [second] س into ى; (S, Msb;) and أَحَسْتُ, (T, S, L, K,) with a single س, which is an extr. kind of contraction, (S, K,) but made in all other similar cases, where the last radical letter is quiescent; (Sb, L, TA;) and [thus] for أَحْسَسْنَ, we find أَحَسْنَ; (S;) and in like manner, for ↓ حَسِسْتُ, (S, K,) or ↓ حَسَسْتُ, (Msb,) some say حَسِيتُ, (T, S, M, L,) and حَسَّيْتُ, (M, L, Msb, K, [in the CK حَسْتُ, which is the modern vulgar form,]) and حَسْتُ. (Abu-l-Hasan, IAar, T, M, L.) You say, احسّهُ بِعَيْنِهِ [He perceived him, or it, with his eye]; (Ibn-Zekereeyà, TA in art. جس;) and so ↓ حَسَّهُ. (Sgh, TA ibid.) [In the present art. in the TA, it is said that حَسَّهُ بالنصل is syn. with أَحَسَّهُ: but بالنّصل is evidently a mistranscription for بِالبَصَرِ.] And it is said in the Kur [iii. 45], فَلَمَّا أَحَسَّ عِيسَى مِنْهُمُ الكُفْرَ And when Jesus ascertained their unbelief as one ascertains a thing that is perceived by the senses: (Bd:) or opined it; or perceived it, or became sensible of it: (Akh, S:) or saw it: (Lh, TA:) or knew it, or perceived it sensibly. (Msb.) And in the same [xix. last verse], هَلْ تُحِسُّ مِنْهُمْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ Dost thou see of them any one? (TA.) You say also, هَلْ أَحْسَسْتَ الخَبَرَ Hast thou known the news? (TA.) And أَحْسَسْتُ بِالخَبَرِ, and أَحْسَيْتُ بِهِ, and به ↓ حَسِسْتُ, and حَسِيتُ به, I knew the news certainly. (S.) And أَحْسَسْتُ الخَبَرَ, and أَحَسْتُهُ, and ↓ حَسِيتُهُ, and حَسْتُهُ, I knew somewhat of the news. (T, L, TA.) And مَا أَحْسَسْتُ بِاخَبَرِ, and اَحَسْتُ بِه. مَا, and به ↓ ما حَسِيتُ, and ما حَسْتُ, I knew not aught of the news. (T, L, TA.) 5 تحسّس He listened to the discourse of people: (El-Harbee, K:) accord. to Aboo-Mo'ádh, it is (??) to تَسَمَّعَ and تَبَصَّرَ: (TA:) or he sought repeatedly, or time after time, to know a thing, by the sense (الحاسة) [of hearing &c.]: (Har p. 678:) or (so accord. to the TA, but in the K “ and,”) he sought after, (Msb, K.) or sought after repeatedly, or time after time, (Msb,) news, or tidings, of a people, in a good cause; (K;) تجسّس signifying the doing the same in an evil cause: A'Obeyd says, you say, تَحَسَّسْتُ الخَبَرَ and تَجَسَّسْتُهُ; and Sh says that تَنَدَّسْتُهُ is similar to it; and IAar, that تَحَسَّسْتُ الخَبَرَ and تَبَجَّسْتُهُ [but this is app. a mistranscription for تَبَحَّثْتُهُ] signify the same. (TA.) You say also, تحسّس مِنَ الشَّيْءِ He asked, or inquired, after news, or tidings, of the thing. (S, TA.) And تحسّس فُلَانًا, and مِنْ فُلَانٍ, He inquired, or sought for information, respecting such a one; as also تجسّس: or the former signifies he sought after him for himself; and the latter, “he sought after him for another. ” (TA, art. جس.) The passage in which it occurs in the Kur xii. 87, has been differently interpreted, accord. to the several explanations here given. (TA.) A2: See also 7.7 انحسّ (assumed tropical:) It became pulled out or up or off; became eradicated, or displaced; fell, or came, out; syn. اِنْقَلَعَ: (S, K:) it fell; fell off; or fell continuously, by degrees, or one part after another; syn. تَحَاتَّ, (S, K,) and تَسَاقَطَ: (A, TA:) it broke in pieces: (TA:) said by Az to be a dial. var. of انْحَتَّ.

حِسٌّ [accord. to some, a subst. from 1, q. v., in several senses explained above; but accord. to others, an inf. n. As a simple subst., it is often used as syn. with حَاسَّةٌ in the first of the senses assigned to the latter below; i. e., A sense; a faculty of sense; as, for instance, in the K in art. سمع. b2: Hence الحِسُّ المُشْتَرَكُ: see art. شرك].

Hence the proverb, لَا حَسَاسَ مِنِ ابْنَىْ مَوْقِدٍ [There is no perceiving of the two sons of the place of the kindling of fire]: (L, TA:) for they say that two men used to kindle a fire in a road, and, when people passed by them, to entertain them as guests; and a party passing by when they had gone, a man said these words. (L.) And hence the saying, ذَهَبَ فُلَانٌ فَلَا حَسَاسَ بِهِ Such a one has gone, and there is no perceiving him: or there is no perceiving his place. (TA.) حِسَاسُ الحُمَّى: see حِسٌّ.
