شهو

1 شَهِيَهُ and شَهَاهُ: see 8.

A2: شَهَا, aor. ـُ and شَهِىَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. شَهْوَةٌ; It [food &c.] was good, sweet, pleasant, or the like. (MA. [But this, the only meaning there assigned to these two verbs, I do not find elsewhere.]) 2 شَهَّيْتُهُ [I made him, or caused him, to desire, to long, or to desire eagerly]. (Msb.) b2: [and شهّى It excited desire, longing, eager desire, or appetence. For ex., in art. سمق in the K, يُشَهِّى is said of the سُمَّاق, or berry of the sumach, meaning It excites appetence.] b3: And شهّى الشَّىْءَ He, or it, caused the thing to be desired, longed for, or desired eagerly: made it to be good, sweet, pleasant, or the like. (MA.) One says, هٰذَا شَىْءٌ يُشَهِّى الطَّعَامَ i. e. [This is a thing that causes the food to be desired, &c.; that makes it sweet, &c.; or] that incites to desire, or eager desire, of the food. (S, TA.) b4: [And accord. to an explanation of the inf. n., تَشْهِيَةٌ, in the KL, شهّاهُ seems to signify also He said to him, I will give to thee what thou desirest, longest for, or eagerly desirest; agreeably with a rendering of the verb alone, as on the authority of that work, by Golius.]3 شاهاهُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. مُشَاهَاةٌ, (TA,) He was, or became, like him; he resembled him. (K, TA.) A2: Also He jested, or joked, with him: (IAar, TA:) [and] so هَاشَاهُ. (K in art. هشو.) b2: And accord. to IAar, it is also used in relation to the smiting action of the [evil] eye [perhaps meaning He vied with him in smiting with the evil eye: see also 4]. (TA.) 4 اشهاهُ He gave him what he desired or eagerly desired. (K.) b2: And He smote him with an [evil] eye: (K:) in this sense [said to be] formed by transposition from أَشَاهَهُ. (TA.) A2: مَا أَشْهَاهَا إِلَىَّ means that she is desired, or eagerly desired, [i. e. How great an object of desire is she to me!] as though it were from شُهِىَ, though this was not said: and مَا أَشْهَانِى لَهَا means that thou art desiring, or eagerly desiring, [i. e. How desirous, or eagerly desirous, am I of her!] so says Sb. (TA.) 5 تشهّى He demanded with repeated desire. (K, TA.) So in the saying, (TA,) تشهّى عَلَى

فُلَانٍ كَذَا (S, TA) [He demanded with repeated desire, of such a one, such a thing]. b2: See also what next follows.8 اشتهاهُ (S, &c.) He desired it, or longed for it: (Msb:) he loved it; and desired it, or wished for it: (K:) or he desired it eagerly, or intensely: (M in art. فرس: [see an ex. in a poetical citation voce فَرَّسَ:]) and ↓ شَهِيَهُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K;) as also ↓ شَهَاهُ, aor. ـُ (Az, Msb, K;) inf. n. شَهْوَةٌ (S, TA) and شَاهِيَةٌ, which last is an inf. n. [of a rare class] like عَاقِبَةٌ; (TA;) signifies the same: (S, Msb, K:) and so does ↓ تشهّاهُ. (K.) [See what next follows.]

شَهْوَةٌ [mentioned above as an inf. n.] is a word of well-known meaning; (S;) Desire, or longing, or yearning, of the soul for a thing; (Er-Rághib, Msb, TA;) [meaning for a thing gratifying to sense: or eager, or intense, desire; particularly for such a thing; for] it has a more intensive signification than إِرَادَةٌ; and the intelligent agree in opinion that it is not commendable: (M in art. فرس:) [being either lawful or unlawful, it may be rendered as above: or appetite: or appetence: or lust: or carnal lust:] in the present state of existence, it is of two sorts, صَادِقَةٌ [i. e. true], and كَاذِبَةٌ [i. e. false]; the former being that without which the body becomes in an unsound state, as the شَهْوَة [or desire &c.] for food on the occasion of hunger; and the latter being that without which the body does not become in an unsound state: and sometimes it is applied to the object of desire &c., or thing desired &c.: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and agreeably with this last explanation the first of the following pls. is used in the Kur iii.

12: (Ksh, Bd, Jel:) sometimes also it is applied to the faculty to which a thing is made an object of desire &c.: (Er-Rághib, TA:) [also, to the gratification of venereal lust; thus in the K in art. شفر; see شَفِرَتْ and شَفِرَةٌ:] the pl. is شَهَوَاتٌ (Msb, TA) and أَشْهِيَةٌ and شُهًى; the last mentioned by AHei, and a rare instance of a pl. of the measure فُعَلٌ from a sing. of the measure فَعْلَةٌ having an infirm letter for its last radical, like جُهًى pl. of جَهْوَةٌ [and like قُرًى pl. of قَرْيَةٌ]. (TA.) [الشَّهْوَتَانِ means The two appetites, that of the stomach and that of the generative organ.]

الشَّهْوَةُ الخَفِيَّةُ [The latent desire &c.] mentioned in a trad. is said to be any act of disobedience which one conceives in his mind, and upon which he resolves: or one's seeing a beautiful young woman, and lowering his eyes, then looking with his heart, and imaging her to his mind, and so tempting himself. (JM.) [شَهْوَةُ الطِّينِ, lit. The longing for clay, is app. used as a general term for malacia: see حُمَّاضٌ.]

شَهْوَانُ (S, Msb, K, TA) and ↓ شَهْوَانِىٌّ and ↓ شَهِىٌّ, (K, TA,) applied to a man, Desirous, or longing; (S, * Msb, * K, * TA;) or very desirous or longing; greedy; or voracious: (TA:) fem. (of the first, Msb) شَهْوَى: (Msb, K, TA:) pl. [of the first] شَهَاوَى, (K, TA,) like سَكَارَى [pl. of سَكْرَانُ]. (TA.) [See an ex. of the pl. in a verse cited voce جَرْدَبَانٌ.] One says, رَجُلٌ شَهْوَانُ لِلشَّىْءِ [A man desirous &c. of the thing]. (S.) شَهْوَانِىٌّ: see the next preceding paragraph.

شَهِىٌّ i. q. ↓ مُشْتَهًى (S, Msb) [i. e. Desired, longed for, or eagerly desired:] or pleasant, delicious, or sweet: (Msb, TA:) applied to food, (S,) and to water. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] أَبُو الشَّهِىِّ (assumed tropical:) The بَرْبَط [or Persian lute]. (KL.) b3: [and Golius adds, as on the authority of a gloss in a copy of the KL, (assumed tropical:) The water-melon (anguria).]

A2: See also شَهْوَانُ.

شَهَّآءٌ A man having much, or frequent, desire or longing or eager desire. (TA.) [See also شَهْوَانُ.]

شَاهٍ [act. part. n. of 1; Desiring, or longing; &c.]. (Sb, TA.) A2: شَاهِى البَصَرِ A man sharp of sight: (S, K:) formed by transposition from شَائِهُ البَصَرِ. (S.) أَشْهَى [More, and most, desirable, or pleasant or delicious or sweet]. One says, هُوَ أَشْهَى إِلَىَّ مِنْ كَذَا [It is more desirable, or pleasant &c., to me, or in my estimation, than such a thing]. (Msb voce إِلَى.) See also another ex. in a verse cited voce إِلَى, in art. الو.

مُشْتَهًى: see شَهِىٌّ. b2: [Used as a subst., its pl. is مُشْتَهَيَاتٌ.]

حش

1 حَشَّ, (Msb, K,) aor. ـُ [contr. to general rule in the case of an intrans. v. of this class, unless the sec. Pers\. of the pret. be حَشُشْتَ, which seems to be not improbable,] inf. n. حَشٌّ, (Msb,) It (a plant, or herbage, Msb, or a shoot of a palm-tree cut off from the mother-tree, or plucked forth from the ground, and planted, K) dried, or dried up. (Msb, K.) [Accord. to my copy of the Msb, the same is said of a well; but I incline to think that بِئْر is here written by mistake for تِبْن (meaning straw) or some similar word.] You say also, حَشَّ الوَلَد, (IAar, S, A, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,) or inf. n. حُشُوشٌ, (IAar,) and, as some say, حُشَّ; (A'Obeyd, S;) and ↓ استحشّ; (TA;) The child, or young one, (S, A, K,) of a she-camel, (IAar,) dried up in the belly, (S, A, K,) or womb, (TA,) the time of the birth having been exceeded.

(TA.) A2: حَشَّهُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ [in this case agreeable with general rule,] inf. n. حَشٌّ, (Msb, TA,) He cut it, namely, حَشِيش [or dry herbage]: (S, Mgh, Msb, K:) and he collected it; as also ↓ احتشّهُ: (TA:) or the former has the former signification [only]; and ↓ the latter signifies he sought it, and collected it. (S, K, TA.) You say also, حَشَّ لِبَعِيرِهِ He collected dry herbage (حَشِيش) for his camel. (TA in art. بقل.) and حَشَّ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ He cut dry herbage (حشيش) for his beast. (TA.) And حَشَّ عَلَى غَنَمِهِ He beat the branches of the trees so that its leaves became scattered [for, or upon, his sheep or goats]; like هَشَّ. (TA.) b2: Also, (S, K,) aor. as above, (S, A, K,) and so the inf. n., (TA,) He threw to him (namely a horse) حَشِيش [or dry herbage]; (S, K;) he fed him therewith. (A, TA.) Az says, I have heard the Arabs say to a man حُشَّ فَرَسَكَ [Feed thou thy horse with dry herbage]. (TA.) Hence the prov., أَحُشُّكَ وَ تَرُوثُنِى [I feed thee with dry herbage and thou dungest upon me]: (S, A, K:) and if it were said with س [أَحُسُّكَ, “I carry thee,”] it would not be strange: (S:) applied to him who does evil to one who does good to him: (Az, K:) or to any one to whom a benefit has been done and who requites it with the contrary thereof, or is not grateful for it nor profits by it: and thus the prov. is related in the T and S and M and A [and K]; but by 'Abd-es-Selám El-Basree, أَحُشَّكِ وَ تَرُوثِينَنِى. (TA.) b3: Hence, (A,) حَشَّ النَّارَ, (S, A, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (S,) and Az adds بِالْحَطَبِ, (TA,) (tropical:) He kindled the fire; or made it to burn, or to burn fiercely; (S, A, K;) and fed it with firewood, like as one feeds a beast with حَشِيش: (A, TA:) or he collected to it what was scattered of the firewood: (TA:) and he stirred it. (K.) b4: and حَشَّ الحَرْبَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, (tropical:) He kindled, and excited, or provoked, war, or the war.

(TA.) 4 احشّ It (herbage) became in such a state that it might be cut (ISh, K) and gathered, (TA,) being dried up. (ISh.) b2: أَحَشَّتِ اليَدُ: see حَشَّت. b3: Also احشّت She (a woman, S and K, and a camel, TA) had her child, or young one, dried up in her belly. (S, K.) A2: أَحَشَّ اللّٰهُ يَدَهُ [May God make his arm, or hand, to dry up; or to become unsound in its veins or ducts, and so rendered motionless;] is a form of imprecation used by the Arabs. (TA.) b2: احشّ فُلَانًا He cut (K) and collected (TA) حَشِيش [or dry herbage] with such a one; (K;) as though he helped him in doing so. (TA.) 8 احتشّهُ: see حَشَّهُ, in two places.10 استحشّ الوَلَدُ; and استحشّت اليَدُ: see حَشَّ; and حَشَّت.

حَشٌّ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ حُشٌّ, (S, Msb, K,) but the former is the more common, (Msb,) and ↓ حِشٌّ, (K,) A garden: (El-Fárábee, S, Mgh, Msb, K: *) or a garden of palm-trees: (AHát, Msb:) pl. حِشَّانٌ (S, Msb) and حُشَّانٌ. (Msb.) b2: Hence, (tropical:) A privy; (El- Fárábee, S, A, Mgh, Msb, K;) likewise called بَيْتُ الحَشِّ or ↓ الحُشِّ: (Msb:) because they used to ease themselves in the gardens: (S, Mgh, Msb, K:) then, when they made privies, they applied thus this appellation: (Msb:) and in like manner, ↓ مَحَشٌّ; but accord. to the Abridgment of the 'Eyn., this is proper, not tropical: (Msb:) or this last, also written ↓ مِحَشٌّ, signifies the same; (TA;) or a place in which human ordure has become collected: (K:) the pl. of حشّ as applied to a privy is حُشُوشٌ (S, Mgh, K) and حُشُّونَ. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) A2: See also مَحَشَّةٌ.

حَشُوشٌ جَنِينُهَا [Having her fœtus dried up in her womb]. (L from a verse of Ibn-Mukbil.) حَشِيشٌ Dry herbage; (Msb;) dry pasture, or fodder: (El-Fárábee, S, Mgh, Msb, K:) of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ: (Msb:) what is fresh is not so called: (S, Msb:) but عُشْبٌ is applied to what is fresh and what is dry: this, says ISd, is the opinion of the generality of the lexicologists: some [he adds] assert that حشيش is green pasture or herbage, as well as dry: but he says that this is not correct; [and the like is said in the Msb;] for this word is properly applied to denote dryness and contraction: ISh says that it is applied to all herbs, or leguminous plants, fresh as well as dry; as also عَلَفٌ and خَلًى: Az says that when they use it unrestricted, the Arabs mean thereby حَلِىّ, [which is the herb called نَصِىّ when it has become dry and white,] in particular; and that this is the best kind of fodder; that horses thrive upon it, and it is one of the best pastures for camels, or for camels and sheep and goats; a good supply in years of scarcity: (TA:) or it signifies cut herbage or pasture; and is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ: (Msb:) the n. un. is with ة, signifying a fascicle, or wisp, of حَشيش: (TA:) [and sometimes a herb of any kind: the pl. is حَشَائِشُ.] b2: [It is also applied, in the present day, to Hemp, used for its intoxicating property; both fresh and dry: app. what is termed حَشِيشُ الحَرَافِيشِ in the K, voce بَنْجٌ, q. v.: and also termed حَشِيشَةٌ الفَقَرَآءِ: see De Sacy's “ Chrest.

(K.) It is said in a trad., فَأَلْقَتْ حشِيشًا And she cast forth a child, or young one, dried up. (Mgh.) And you say, أَلْقَتْ وَلَدَهَا حَشِيشًا She (a camel) cast forth her young one dried up. (Msb.) حُشَاشَةٌ The [last] remains of the spirit (S, A, * Msb, K) in the heart, (TA,) [or of life;] in a sick man, (S, Msb, K,) and in one who is wounded; (K;) as also ↓ حُشَاشٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the ة being sometimes elided.

(A, TA.) And مَا بَقِىَ مِنَ الشَّمْسِ

إِلَّا حُشَاشَةٌ نَازِعٌ (tropical:) [There remained not, of the sun, save a last departing relic]. (A, TA.) حَشَائِشِىٌّ One skilled in the knowledge of herbs: so in modern works. b2: Accord. to Golius, as on the authority of the KL, but not in my copy of that work, A collector of hay; a forager.]

حُشَّاشٌ, [pl. of ↓ حَاشٌّ,] Cutters, or cutters and collectors, of حَشِيش [or dry herbage]: (TA:) or seekers and collectors thereof. (S) A2: See also مِحَشٌّ.

حَاشٌّ: see its pl. حُشَّاشٌ.

أُحْشُوشٌ: see حَشِيشٌ, last signification.

مَحَشٌّ, (S, A, TA,) or ↓ مِحَشٌّ, (K, [but this seems to be a mistake occasioned by the accidental omission of وَالمَحَشُّ, as is indicated by the addition of وَيُكْسَرُ shortly after, referring to the word in a sense different from that which is here next mentioned,] A place, (S,) or land, (K,) in which is much حَشِيش [or dry herbage]; (S, K) as also ↓ مَحَشَّةٌ: (K:) or a place in which one cuts حشيش: (A:) and the first (مَحَشٌّ) a place in which are much pasture, or herbage, and wealth, or good things.

(TA.) b2: See also حَشٌّ. b3: Also the former, A thing in which حَشِيش is put; and so ↓ مِحَشٌّ; but the former is the more chaste; (A 'Obeyd, S, K;) and ↓ مِحَشَّةٌ, (K,) and ↓ مَحَشَّةٌ, which is more chaste; so in some copies of the K; (TA:) and ↓ حُشَاشٌ, like غُرَابٌ; of which the pl. is أَحْشِشَةٌ: (TA:) the first two of these words are applied to a woollen كِسَآء [q. v.] in which حَشِيش is put: (IAth:) and ↓ حِشَاشٌ, with kesr, signifies a [sack of the kind called] جُوَالِق in which is حَشِيش.
