أَجأ:
بوزن فعل، بالتحريك، مهموز مقصور، والنسب إليه أجئيّ بوزن أجعيّ: وهو علم مرتجل لاسم رجل سمّي الجبل به، كما نذكره، ويجوز أن يكون منقولا.
ومعناه الفرار، كما حكاه ابن الأعرابي، يقال: أجأ الرجل إذا فرّ، وقال الزمخشري: أجأ وسلمى جبلان عن يسار سميراء، وقد رأيتهما، شاهقان. ولم يقل عن يسار القاصد إلى مكة أو المنصرف عنها، وقال أبو عبيد السكوني: أجأ أحد جبلي طيّء وهو غربي فيد، وبينهما مسير ليلتين وفيه قرى كثيرة، قال:
ومنازل طيّء في الجبلين عشر ليال من دون فيد إلى أقصى أجإ، إلى القريّات من ناحية الشام، وبين المدينة والجبلين، على غير الجادّة: ثلاث مراحل. وبين الجبلين وتيماء جبال ذكرت في مواضعها من هذا الكتاب، منها دبر وغريّان وغسل. وبين كل جبلين يوم. وبين الجبلين وفدك ليلة. وبينهما وبين خيبر خمس ليال. وذكر العلماء بأخبار العرب أن أجأ سمّي باسم رجل وسمّي سلمى باسم امرأة. وكان من خبرهما أن رجلا من العماليق يقال له أجأ بن عبد الحيّ، عشق امرأة من قومه، يقال لها سلمى. وكانت لها حاضنة يقال لها العوجاء. وكانا يجتمعان في منزلها
حتى نذر بهما إخوة سلمى، وهم الغميم والمضلّ وفدك وفائد والحدثان وزوجها. فخافت سلمى وهربت هي وأجأ والعوجاء، وتبعهم زوجها وإخوتها فلحقوا سلمى على الجبل المسمى سلمى، فقتلوها هناك، فسمّي الجبل باسمها. ولحقوا العوجاء على هضبة بين الجبلين، فقتلوها هناك، فسمّي المكان بها. ولحقوا أجأ بالجبل المسمّى بأجإ، فقتلوه فيه، فسمّي به.
وأنفوا أن يرجعوا إلى قومهم، فسار كل واحد إلى مكان فأقام به فسمي ذلك المكان باسمه، قال عبيد الله الفقير إليه: وهذا أحد ما استدللنا به على بطلان ما ذكره النحويّون من أن أجأ مؤنثة غير مصروفة، لأنه جبل مذكّر، سمّي باسم رجل، وهو مذكر.
وكأنّ غاية ما التزموا به قول امرئ القيس:
أبت أجأ أن تسلم العام جارها، ... فمن شاء فلينهض لها من مقاتل
وهذا لا حجّة لهم فيه، لأن الجبل بنفسه لا يسلم أحدا، إنما يمنع من فيه من الرجال. فالمراد: أبت قبائل أجإ، أو سكّان أجإ، وما أشبهه، فحذف المضاف وأقام المضاف إليه مقامه، يدلّ على ذلك عجز البيت، وهو قوله:
فمن شاء فلينهض لها من مقاتل
والجبل نفسه لا يقاتل، والمقاتلة مفاعلة ولا تكون من واحد، ووقف على هذا من كلامنا نحويّ من أصدقائنا وأراد الاحتجاج والانتصار لقولهم، فكان غاية ما قاله: أن المقاتلة في التذكير والتأنيث مع الظاهر وأنت تراه قال: أبت أجأ. فالتأنيث لهذا الظاهر ولا يجوز أن يكون للقبائل المحذوفة بزعمك، فقلت له: هذا خلاف لكلام العرب، ألا ترى إلى قول حسان بن ثابت:
يسقون من ورد البريص عليهم ... بردى، يصفّق بالرحيق السّلسل
لم يرو أحد قط يصفّق إلا بالياء آخر الحروف لأنه يريد يصفّق ماء بردى، فرده إلى المحذوف وهو الماء، ولم يردّه إلى الظاهر، وهو بردى. ولو كان الأمر على ما ذكرت، لقال: تصفّق، لأن بردى مؤنث لم يجيء على وزنه مذكّر قط. وقد جاء الردّ على المحذوف تارة، وعلى الظاهر أخرى، في قول الله، عز وجل: وكم من قرية أهلكناها فجاءها بأسنا بياتا أوهم قائلون، ألا تراه قال: فجاءها فردّ على الظاهر، وهو القرية، ثم قال: أو هم قائلون فردّ على أهل القرية وهو محذوف، وهذا ظاهر، لا إشكال فيه. وبعد فليس هنا ما يتأوّل به التأنيث، إلا أن يقال: إنه أراد البقعة فيصير من باب التّحكّم، لأن تأويله بالمذكّر ضروريّ، لأنه جبل، والجبل مذكّر، وإنه سمي باسم رجل بإجماع كما ذكرنا، وكما نذكره بعد في رواية أخرى، وهو مكان وموضع ومنزل وموطن ومحلّ ومسكن. ولو سألت كل عربيّ عن أجإ لم يقل إلا أنه جبل، ولم يقل بقعة. ولا مستند إذا للقائل بتأنيثه البتة. ومع هذا فإنني إلى هذه الغاية لم أقف للعرب على شعر جاء فيه ذكر أجإ غير مصروف، مع كثرة استعمالهم لترك صرف ما ينصرف في الشعر، حتى إن أكثر النحويين قد رجّحوا أقوال الكوفيّين في هذه المسألة، وأنا أورد في ذلك من أشعارهم ما بلغني منها، البيت الذي احتجّوا به وقد مرّ، وهو قول امرئ القيس: أبت أجأ، ومنها قول عارق الطائي:
ومن مبلغ عمرو بن هند رسالة، ... إذا استحقبتها العيس تنضى من البعد
أيوعدني، والرمل بيني وبينه! تأمّل رويدا ما أمامة من هند ومن أجإ حولي رعان، كأنها قنابل خيل من كميت ومن ورد
قال العيزار بن الأخفش الطائي، وكان خارجيا:
ألا حيّ رسم الدّار أصبح باليا، ... وحيّ، وإن شاب القذال، الغوانيا
تحمّلن من سلمى فوجّهن بالضّحى ... إلى أجإ، يقطعن بيدا مهاويا
وقال زيد بن مهلهل الطائي:
جلبنا الخيل من أجإ وسلمى، ... تخبّ نزائعا خبب الرّكاب
جلبنا كلّ طرف أعوجيّ، ... وسلهبة كخافية الغراب
نسوف للحزام بمرفقيها، ... شنون الصّلب صمّاء الكعاب
وقال لبيد يصف كتيبة النّعمان:
أوت للشباح، واهتدت بصليلها ... كتائب خضر ليس فيهنّ ناكل
كأركان سلمى، إذ بدت أو كأنّها ... ذرى أجإ، إذ لاح فيه مواسل
فقال فيه ولم يقل فيها، ومواسل قنّة في أجإ، وأنشد قاسم بن ثابت لبعض الأعراب:
إلى نضد من عبد شمس، كأنهم ... هضاب أجا أركانه لم تقصّف
قلامسة ساسوا الأمور، فأحكموا ... سياستها حتى أقرّت لمردف
وهذا، كما تراه، مذكّر مصروف، لا تأويل فيه لتأنيثه.
فإنه لو أنّث لقال: أركانها، فإن قيل هذا لا حجّة فيه لأن الوزن يقوم بالتأنيث، قيل قول امرئ القيس أيضا، لا يجوز لكم الاحتجاج به لأن الوزن يقوم بالتذكير، فيقول: أبى أجأ لكنّا صدّقناكم فاحتججنا، ولا تأويل فيها، وقول الحيص بيص:
أجأ وسلمى أم بلاد الزاب، ... وأبو المظفّر أم غضنفر غاب
ثم إني وقفت بعد ما سطرته آنفا، على جامع شعر امرئ القيس، وقد نصّ الأصمعي على ما قلته، وهو: أن اجأ موضع، وهو أحد جبلي طيّء، والآخر سلمى. وإنما أراد أهل أجإ، كقول الله، عزّ وجل:
واسأل القرية، يريد أهل القرية، هذا لفظه بعينه. ثم وقفت على نسخة أخرى من جامع شعره، قيل فيه:
أرى أجأ لن يسلم العام جاره
ثم قال في تفسير الرواية الأولى: والمعنى أصحاب الجبل لم يسلموا جارهم. وقال أبو العرماس: حدثني أبو محمد أنّ أجأ سمّي برجل كان يقال له أجأ، وسمّيت سلمى بامرأة كان يقال لها سلمى، وكانا يلتقيان عند العوجاء، وهو جبل بين أجإ وسلمى، فسمّيت هذه الجبال بأسمائهم. ألا تراه قال: سمي أجأ برجل وسميت سلمى بامرأة، فأنّث المؤنث وذكّر المذكّر. وهذا إن شاء الله كاف في قطع حجاج من خالف وأراد الانتصار بالتقليد. وقد جاء أجا مقصورا غير مهموز في الشعر، وقد تقدّم له شاهد في البيتين اللذين على الفاء، قال العجّاج:
والأمر ما رامقته ملهوجا ... يضويك ما لم يج منه منضجا
فإن تصر ليلى بسلمى أو أجا، ... أو باللوى أو ذي حسا أو يأججا
وأما سبب نزول طيّء الجبلين، واختصاصهم بسكناهما دون غيرهم من العرب، فقد اختلفت الرّواة فيه. قال ابن الكلبي، وجماعة سواه: لما تفرق بنو سبا أيام سيل العرم سار جابر وحرملة ابنا أدد بن زيد بن الهميسع قلت: لا أعرف جابرا وحرملة وفوق كل ذي علم عليم، وتبعهما ابن أخيهما طيّء، واسمه جلهمة، قلت: وهذا أيضا لا أعرفه، لأن طيّئا عند ابن الكلبي، هو جلهمة بن أدد بن زيد بن يشجب بن عريب بن زيد بن كهلان. والحكاية عنه، وكان أبو عبيدة، قال زيد بن الهميسع: فساروا نحو تهامة وكانوا فيما بينها وبين اليمن، ثم وقع بين طيّء وعمومته ملاحاة ففارقهم وسار نحو الحجاز بأهله وماله وتتبّع مواقع القطر، فسمّي طيّئا لطيّه المنازل، وقيل إنه سمّي طيّئا لغير ذلك، وأوغل طيّء بأرض الحجاز، وكان له بعير يشرد في كل سنة عن إبله، ويغيب ثلاثة أشهر، ثم يعود إليه وقد عبل وسمن وآثار الخضرة بادية في شدقيه، فقال لابنه عمرو: تفقّد يا بنيّ هذا البعير فإذا شرد فاتبع أثره حتى تنظر إلى أين ينتهي. فلما كانت أيام الربيع وشرد البعير تبعه على ناقة له فلم يزل يقفر أثره حتى صار إلى جبل طيء، فأقام هنالك ونظر عمرو إلى بلاد واسعة كثيرة المياه والشجر والنخيل والريف، فرجع إلى أبيه وأخبره بذلك فسار طيء بإبله وولده حتى نزل الجبلين فرآهما أرضا لها شأن، ورأى فيها شيخا عظيما، جسيما، مديد القامة، على خلق العاديّين ومعه امرأة على خلقه يقال لها سلمى، وهي امرأته وقد اقتسما الجبلين بينهما بنصفين، فأجأ في أحد النصفين وسلمى في الآخر، فسألهما طيء عن أمرهما، فقال الشيخ: نحن من بقايا صحار غنينا بهذين الجبلين عصرا بعد عصر، أفنانا كرّ الليل والنهار، فقال له طيء:
هل لك في مشاركتي إياك في هذا المكان فأكون لك مؤنسا وخلّا؟ فقال الشيخ: إنّ لي في ذلك رأيا فأقم فإن المكان واسع، والشجر يانع، والماء طاهر، والكلأ غامر. فأقام معه طيء بإبله وولده بالجبلين، فلم يلبث الشيخ والعجوز إلا قليلا حتى هلكا وخلص المكان لطي فولده به إلى هذه الغاية.
قالوا: وسألت العجوز طيّئا ممّن هو، فقال طيء:
إنّا من القوم اليمانيّينا ... إن كنت عن ذلك تسألينا
وقد ضربنا في البلاد حينا ... ثمّت أقبلنا مهاجرينا
إذ سامنا الضّيم بنو أبينا ... وقد وقعنا اليوم فيما شينا
ريفا وماء واسعا معينا
ويقال إن لغة طيء هي لغة هذا الشيخ الصّحاري والعجوز امرأته. وقال أبو المنذر هشام بن محمد في كتاب افتراق العرب: لما خرجت طيء من أرضهم من الشحر ونزلوا بالجبلين، أجإ وسلمى، ولم يكن بهما أحد وإذا التمر قد غطّى كرانيف النخل، فزعموا أن الجنّ كانت تلقّح لهم النخل في ذلك الزمان، وكان في ذلك التمر خنافس، فأقبلوا يأكلون التمر والخنافس، فجعل بعضهم يقول: ويلكم الميّث أطيب من الحيّ. وقال أبو محمد الأعرابي أكتبنا أبو الندى قال: بينما طيء ذات يوم جالس مع ولده بالجبلين إذ أقبل رجل من بقايا جديس، ممتدّ القامة، عاري الجبلّة، كاد يسدّ الأفق طولا، ويفرعهم باعا، وإذا هو الأسود بن غفار بن الصّبور الجديسي،
وكان قد نجا من حسّان تبّع اليمامة ولحق بالجبلين، فقال لطي: من أدخلكم بلادي وإرثي عن آبائي؟
اخرجوا عنها وإلا فعلت وفعلت. فقال طيء:
البلاد بلادنا وملكنا وفي أيدينا، وإنما ادّعيتها حيث وجدتها خلاء. فقال الأسود: اضربوا بيننا وبينكم وقتا نقتتل فيه فأيّنا غلب استحقّ البلد. فاتّعدا لوقت، فقال طيء لجندب بن خارجة بن سعد بن فطرة بن طيء وأمّه جديلة بنت سبيع بن عمرو ابن حمير وبها يعرفون، وهم جديلة طيء، وكان طيء لها مؤثرا، فقال لجندب: قاتل عن مكرمتك.
فقالت أمه: والله لتتركنّ بنيك وتعرضنّ ابني للقتل! فقال طيء: ويحك إنما خصصته بذلك.
فأبت، فقال طيء لعمرو بن الغوث بن طيء:
فعليك يا عمرو الرجل فقاتله. فقال عمرو: لا أفعل، وأنشأ يقول وهو أول من قال الشعر في طيء بعد طيء:
يا طيء أخبرني، ولست بكاذب، ... وأخوك صادقك الذي لا يكذب
أمن القضيّة أن، إذا استغنيتم ... وأمنتم، فأنا البعيد الأجنب
وإذا الشدائد بالشدائد مرّة، ... أشجتكم، فأنا الحبيب الأقرب
عجبا لتلك قضيّتي، وإقامتي ... فيكم، على تلك القضيّة، أعجب
ألكم معا طيب البلاد ورعيها، ... ولي الثّماد ورعيهنّ المجدب
وإذا تكون كريهة أدعى لها، ... وإذا يحاس الحيس يدعى جندب
هذا لعمركم الصّغار بعينه، ... لا أمّ لي، إن كان ذاك، ولا أب
فقال طيء: يا بنيّ إنها أكرم دار في العرب. فقال عمرو: لن أفعل إلا على شرط أن لا يكون لبني جديلة في الجبلين نصيب. فقال له طيء: لك شرطك.
فأقبل الأسود بن غفار الجديسي للميعاد ومعه قوس من حديد ونشّاب من حديد فقال: يا عمرو إن شئت صارعتك وإن شئت ناضلتك وإلا سايفتك.
فقال عمرو: الصّراع أحبّ إليّ فاكسر قوسك لأكسرها أيضا ونصطرع. وكانت لعمرو بن الغوث ابن طيء قوس موصولة بزرافين إذا شاء شدّها وإذا شاء خلعها، فأهوى بها عمرو فانفتحت عن الزرافين واعترض الأسود بقوسه ونشّابه فكسرها، فلما رأى عمرو ذلك أخذ قوسه فركّبها وأوترها وناداه: يا أسود استعن بقوسك فالرمي أحبّ إليّ. فقال الأسود: خدعتني. فقال عمرو: الحرب خدعة، فصارت مثلا، فرماه عمرو ففلق قلبه وخلص الجبلان لطي، فنزلهما بنو الغوث، ونزلت جديلة السهل منهما لذلك. قال عبيد الله الفقير إليه:
في هذا الخبر نظر من وجوه، منها أن جندبا هو الرابع من ولد طيء فكيف يكون رجلا يصلح لمثل هذا الأمر؟ ثم الشعر الذي أنشده وزعم أنه لعمرو ابن الغوث، وقد رواه أبو اليقظان وأحمد بن يحيى ثعلب وغيرهما من الرّواة الثقات لهانىء بن أحمر الكناني شاعر جاهليّ. ثم كيف تكون القوس حديدا وهي لا تنفذ السّهم إلّا برجوعها؟ والحديد إذا اعوجّ لا يرجع البتّة. ثم كيف يصحّ في العقل أن قوسا بزرافين؟
هذا بعيد في العقل إلى غير ذلك من النظر. وقد روى بعض أهل السير من خبر الأسود بن غفار ما هو أقرب إلى القبول من هذا، وهو أنّ الأسود لما أفلت
من حسّان تبّع، كما نذكره إن شاء الله تعالى في خبر اليمامة، أفضى به الهرب حتى لحق بالجبلين قبل أن ينزلهما طيء، وكانت طيء تنزل الجوف من أرض اليمن، وهي اليوم محلّة همدان ومراد، وكان سيّدهم يومئذ أسامة بن لؤي بن الغوث بن طيء وكان الوادي مسبعة وهم قليل عددهم فجعل ينتابهم بعير في زمن الخريف يضرب في إبلهم، ولا يدرون أين يذهب، إلا أنهم لا يرونه إلى قابل، وكانت الأزد قد خرجت من اليمن أيام سيل العرم فاستوحشت طيء لذلك وقالت: قد ظعن إخواننا وساروا إلى الأرياف، فلما همّوا بالظعن، قالوا لأسامة: إن هذا البعير الذي يأتينا إنما يأتينا من بلد ريف وخصب وإنا لنرى في بعره النّوى، فلو إنا نتعهده عند انصرافه فشخصنا معه لعلنا نصيب مكانا خيرا من مكاننا. فلما كان الخريف جاء البعير فضرب في إبلهم، فلما انصرف تبعه أسامة بن لؤي بن الغوث وحبّة بن الحارث بن فطرة بن طيء فجعلا يسيران بسير الجمل وينزلان بنزوله، حتى أدخلهما باب أجإ، فوقفا من الخصب والخير على ما أعجبهما، فرجعا إلى قومهما فأخبراهم به فارتحلت طيء بجملتها إلى الجبلين، وجعل أسامة بن لؤي يقول:
اجعل ظريبا كحبيب ينسى، ... لكلّ قوم مصبح وممسى
وظريب اسم الموضع الذي كانوا ينزلون فيه قبل الجبلين، قال فهجمت طيء على النخل بالشّعاب على مواش كثيرة، وإذا هم برجل في شعب من تلك الشعاب وهو الأسود بن غفار، فهالهم ما رأوا من عظم خلقه وتخوّفوه، فنزلوا ناحية من الأرض فاستبرؤوها فلم يروا بها أحدا غيره. فقال أسامة بن لؤي لابن له يقال له الغوث: يا بنيّ إن قومك قد عرفوا فضلك في الجلد والبأس والرّمي، فاكفنا أمر هذا الرجل، فإن كفيتنا أمره فقد سدت قومك آخر الدهر، وكنت الذي أنزلتنا هذا البلد. فانطلق الغوث حتى أتى الرجل، فسأله، فعجب الأسود من صغر خلق الغوث، فقال له:
من أين أقبلتم؟ فقال له: من اليمن. وأخبره خبر البعير ومجيئهم معه، وأنهم رهبوا ما رأوا من عظم خلقه وصغرهم عنه، فأخبرهم باسمه ونسبه. ثم شغله الغوث ورماه بسهم فقتله، وأقامت طيء بالجبلين وهم بهما إلى الآن. وأما أسامة بن لؤي وابنه الغوث هذا فدرجا ولا عقب لهما.

(S.) b3: الحُرُوفُ الرِّخْوَةُ [which may be rendered The lax letters] is said in the K, by an anticipation of the pen, to be applied to the letters exclusive of those comprised in the phrase لَمْ يُرْعُونَا [for which some say لَمْ يَرْوِ عَنَّا]: Sgh says [correctly] that they are the letters exclusive of those termed الشَّدِيدَةُ and of those in the phrase لم يرعونا: as is said in the M, they are thirteen; namely, ث,ح,خ,ذ,ز,س,ش,ص,ض,ظ,غ,ف, and ه; [to which De Sacy adds, in his Grammar, (2nd ed. i. 29,) ا without ء, and و and ى, which are generally included in an intermediate class between the شديدة and the رخوة, namely, in the class consisting of the letters in the phrase لم يرعونا or لم يرو عنّا:] the letter termed رِخْوٌ is that in which the sound runs on, as it does, for instance, in the س and ش when you say المَسّ and الرَّشّ. (TA.) رُخْوَةٌ: see what next follows.

رَخَآءٌ [said by some to be an inf. n. of 1] Ampleness, or freedom from straitness, of the means, or circumstances, of life; (JK, S, Msb, K;) [and so رَخَآءُ البَالِ;] as also ↓ رِخْوَةٌ. (JK.) رَخَآءُ النَّفْسِ (assumed tropical:) [An easy, or unstraitened, state of mind]. (S in art. بول.) رُخَآءٌ A soft, or gentle, wind: (S, K:) or a soft, or gentle, and quick, wind: (JK:) or a soft, or gentle, wind, that does not move anything. (Har p. 38.) It has the first of these meanings in the Kur xxxviii. 35: (Bd, Jel:) or it there means A wind that does not oppose, or contravene, the will of God. (Bd.) رَخِىٌّ (Msb, K) and ↓ رَاخٍ, (K,) applied to life (عَيْش, Msb, K), (assumed tropical:) Ample, unstraitened, or plentiful, in its means, or circumstances: (Msb, K:) or both applied to a man, (assumed tropical:) in an ample, an unstraitened, or a plentiful, state of life.

(JK, S, * Msb, TA. * [See also other explanations in art. بول.]) And إِنَّ ذٰلِكَ الأَمْرُ لَيَذْهَبُ مِنِّى فِى بَالٍ

رَخِىٍ [Verily that affair passes away from me, I being in an easy state of mind,] is said when you are not disquieted, rendered anxious, or grieved, by the affair. (TA.) رَاخٍ, and رَاخِى: see the next preceding paragraph.

أَرْخَى [as meaning More relaxing or slackening or loosening] is used in a verse of Hassán Ibn-Thábit for the regular expression أَشَدُّ إِرْخَآءً: it is like مَا أَحْوَجَهُ meaning مَا أَشَدَّ حَاجَتَهُ. (El-Hareeree's “ Durrat el-Ghowwás,” in De Sacy's

“ Anthol. Gramm. Ar,” p. 52 of the Ar. text.) أُرْخِيَّةٌ A thing, or part of a thing, (as, for instance, a veil, or curtain, TK,) that one has let loose, let down, or lowered.

(Msb in art. بعد.) مُسْتَرْخٍ; fem. مُسْتَرْخَيَةٌ: see رِخْوٌ, first sentence.

(IB.) b4: قَحِطَ النَّاسُ, like سَمِعَ [in form], (K, TA,) not otherwise; (TA;) [unless in the pass. form; for] you say also, (K,) قُحِطُوا; (S, Msb, K,) and ↓ أُقْحِطُوا; (Msb, K;) but these two are rare; (K;) or they are not allowable; (M;) and ↓ أَقْحَطُوا; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) and قَحَطَ عَنْهُمُ المَطَرُ; (Mgh;) The people suffered, or were afflicted with, drought, or want of rain; (S, Msb, K, TA;) they had no rain; (TA;) rain was withheld from them.

[The latter one might think to be a mistranscription for ↓ استلبهُ were it not for an instance of the same verb before men-tioned, and for the fact that it is immediately followed in the A by وَهُوَ مُسْلَبُ العَقْلِ: perhaps, however, مُسْلَب may be here a mistake for مُسْلِب.] b3: And اُسْلُبْ هٰذِهِ القَصَبَةَ (assumed tropical:) Peel thou this cane, or reed.

Aegypt. Arab., p. cx.) this name is applied in El-Yemen to a species of hyacinth, which he terms hyacinthus aporus.] A poet says, (S,) namely, [Murrah] Ibn-Mahkán [El-Temeemee], (M,) فَنَشْنَشَ الجِلْدَ عَنْهَاوَهْىَ بَارِكَةٌ كَمَا تُنَشْنِشُ كَفَّا فَاتِلٍ سَلَبَا (S, M, *) i. e.

A2: Also A string, or cord, that is tied to the خَطْم [i. e. muzzle, or nose,] of the camel, exclusive of the خِطَام [q. v.]. (M.) b2: And A sinew that is bound upon an arrow: accord. to AHn, the sinew that is wound upon the لِيط [or skin of the reed, or cane,] of the arrow. (M.) سِلَابٌ sing. of سُلُبٌ, which signifies The black garments of women at their assemblies for mourning: (S:) MF says that the former is expl. in the K as meaning black garments, which necessarily implies that it is a pl.; and the latter is there said to be its pl., which necessarily implies that it is a sing.: (TA:) [but it may be replied that the author of the K regarded the former as a pl. without a sing.; and the latter, as a pl. pl.:] or both signify black garments worn by women; and the sing. is ↓ سَلَبَةٌ: (M:) accord. to the T, سِلَابٌ signifies a black garment with which a woman mourning for the death of her husband covers her head: accord. to the R, a black خِرْقَة [or piece torn off from a garment or cloth] that is worn by a woman bereft of her child, or of a person beloved, by death.

[of mult.] جَفَانٌ (S, Msb, K) and جِفَنٌ (Sb, TA) and (of pauc., TA) جَفَنَاتٌ (S, Msb, K.)

غر

1 غَرَّهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. غُرُورٌ (Fr, S, Msb, K) and غَرٌّ, (Az, K,) which latter is preferable to the former, [though less common,] because the inf. n. of a trans. verb is scarcely ever of the measure فُعُولٌ, (Az,) and غِرَّةٌ (Lh, K) and غَرَرٌ, (IKtt, TA,) He (the devil, TA) deceived him; beguiled him; (S, K;) made him to desire what was vain, or false. (K.) You say غَرَّتْهُ الدُّنْيَا The world deceived him, or beguiled him, by its finery, or show, or pomp. (Msb.) It is said in the Kur [lxxxii. 6], مَا غَرَّكَ بِرَبِّكَ What hath deceived thee, and led thee into error, so that thou hast neglected what was incumbent on thee to thy Lord? (Aboo-Is-hák:) or what hath deceived thee respecting thy Lord, and induced thee to disobey Him, and to feel secure from his punishment? (TA:) or what hath deceived thee, and emboldened thee to disobey thy Lord? (Bd. [But see بِ as syn. with عَنْ.]) مَا غَرَّكَ بِفُلَانٍ signifies [What hath deceived thee, and emboldened thee against such a one? or] how is it that thou art emboldened against such a one? (As, S, Msb, TA.) [See also 4.] And مَنْ غَرَّكَ بِفُلَانٍ, (TA,) and مِنْ فُلَانٍ, (S, TA,) Who hath made thee to pursue a course without being rightly directed, or a course not plain, (مَنْ أَوْطَأَكَ عُشْوَةً, S, TA,) with respect to such a one, (S,) or with respect to the case of such a one? (TA. [See again 4.]) [Also غُرَّ مِنْ فُلَانٍ, i. e. غُرَّ غُرُورًا صَادِرًا مِنْ فُلَانٍ, He was deceived by such a one; he was deceived with deceit proceeding from such a one. See غَرِيرٌ, as syn. with مَغْرُورٌ.] And غَرَّ فُلَانٌ فُلَانًا Such a one exposed such a one to perdition or destruction [app. by deceiving him]. (TA. [See also 2, and 4.]) Also Such a one acted with such a one in a manner resembling the slaying with the edge of the sword. (TA. [See 3 in art. عطو.]) A2: غَرَّ فَرْخَهُ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـُ (S, O,) inf. n. غَرٌّ (S, O, K) and غِرَارٌ, (O, K, [or the latter is inf. n. of غَارَّ only,]) It (a bird, S, O, K, * or a pigeon, TA) fed its young one with its bill: (S, O, K:) and أُنْثَاهُ ↓ غارّ, (As, S, K,) inf. n. غِرَارٌ (S) or مُغَارَّةٌ, (TA,) he (the [collared turtle-dove called] قُمْرِىّ) fed his female with his bill. (As, S, K.) b2: Hence, in a trad., كَانَ يَغُرُّ عَلِيًّا (O, TA) بِالعِلْمِ (TA) (assumed tropical:) He (the Prophet) used to nourish 'Alee with knowledge like as the bird feeds its young one. (O, TA. *) And one says, غُرَّ فُلَانٌ مِنَ العِلْمِ مَا لَمْ يُغَرُّهُ غَيْرُهُ (assumed tropical:) Such a one has been nourished, and instructed, with that wherewith other than he has not been nourished, and instructed, of knowledge. (TA.) A3: غَرَّ, aor. ـِ (S, Msb,) with kesr; (S;) or غَرَّ, see. Pers\. غَرِرْتَ, aor. ـَ (K, TA;) inf. n. غَرَارَةٌ; (S, Msb, K;) He (a man, S, Msb, or a youth, or young man, K) was inexperienced in affairs; (S, K;) he was ignorant of affairs; negligent, or heedless, of them. (Msb.) You say كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى غَرَارَتِى وَحَدَاثَتِى, i. e. فِى غِرَّتِى, That was in [the time of] my inexperience and youth. (S.) [See also 8.] b2: And غَرَّ, (K,) see. Pers\. غَررْتَ, (IAar, T, TA,) aor. ـَ with fet-h, (IAar, T, K,) inf. n. غَرَارَةٌ, (IAar, T, TA,) He acted in a youthful or childish manner: (IAar, T, TA:) or he so acted after having soundness of judgment, produced by experience. (Sgh, K.) But this is at variance with what J cites from Fr, in art. شد, that the aor. of an intrans. verb of this class of the measure فَعَلَ, should be of the measure يَفْعِلُ, with kesr to the ع. (TA.) A4: غَرَّ, (IAar, IKtt, K,) in one place written by IAar غَرِرَ, to show that it is of the measure فَعِلَ, and that the sec. Pers\. is غَرِرْتَ, (TA,) aor. ـَ (IAar, IKtt, K,) inf. n. غَرَرٌ (IAar, K) and غُرَّةٌ, (IAar, IKtt, K,) or the latter, as ISd thinks, is not an inf. n., but a subst., (TA,) and غَراَرَةٌ, (K,) He (a horse, IAar, IKtt, and a camel, IAar) had what is termed a غُرَّة upon his forehead: (IAar, IKtt:) it (his face) had what is so termed: (K:) it (his face) became white. (IAar, K. *) b2: غَرَّ, aor. ـَ He (a man) became eminent, or noble. (TA.) b3: And غُرَّةٌ signifies also A grape-vine's quickly becoming tall. (K.) A5: See also R. Q. 1.

A6: غَرَّ عَلَيْهِ المَآءَ He poured upon him, or it, the water: like قَرَّ. (TA.) And غُرَّ فِى حَوْضِكَ Pour thou into thy watering-trough. (TA.) And غُرَّ فِى سِقَائِكَ Fill thou thy skin by putting it into the water and throwing the water into it with thy hand, not abstaining until thou fillest it: thus as related by Az accord. to the usage of the desert-Arabs. (TA.) 2 غرّر بِنَفْسِهِ, (S, K, TA,) and بِمَالِهِ, (TA,) inf. n. تَغْرِيرٌ and تَغِرَّةٌ, (S, K,) He exposed himself, (K, TA,) and his property, (TA,) to perdition, or destruction, or loss, (K, TA,) without knowing it: (TA:) he endangered, jeoparded, hazarded, or risked, himself, (S, TA,) [and his property,] and was negligent, or heedless, of the end, issue, or result, of an affair. (TA.) [See also 1.]

A2: غُزِّرَ He (a horse) was marked with a غُرَّة [i. e. a star, or blaze, or white mark, on the forehead or face]: you say بِمَ غُرِّرَ فَرَسُكَ With what kind of غُرَّة is thy horse marked? and the owner answers, With a شاَدِخَة, or with a وَتِيرَة, &c. (Mubtekir El-Aarábee, TA.) A3: غَرَّرَتْ ثَنِيَّتَا الغُلاَمٍ

The central incisors of the boy showed their points for the first time: (S:) or غرّر الغُلاَمُ the first of the teeth of the boy showed its point; as though the غُرَّة, i. e. whiteness, of his teeth appeared: and غَرَّرَتْ أَسْنَانُ الصَّبِىِّ the teeth of the boy were disposed to grow, and came forth. (TA.) b2: and hence, (TA,) غَرَّرَتِ الطَّيْرُ The birds desired, or endeavoured, to fly, and raised their wings. (K, TA.) A4: غرّر القِرْبَةَ (Sgh, K, TA) and السِّقَآءَ (TA) He filled the water-skin. (Sgh, K, TA.) 3 غارّت النَّاقَةُ, (As, ISk, S, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. غِرَارٌ, (ISk, S,) The she-camel became scant of milk: (As, S, K:) or deficient in milk: (TA:) or she took fright, and drew up her milk, (ISk, S,) after yielding milk freely: (ISk, TA:) or the she-camel, having yielded milk abundantly on her teats' being stroked, and not being promptly milked, drew up her milk, and would not yield it plentifully until it collected again in her udder in the interval before the next period of milking. (Az.) [This signification of the verb is said in the TA to be tropical: but I rather think it to be proper; as the next is derived from it.] b2: غارَّت السُّوقُ, aor. ـَ (Az, S,) inf. n. غِرَارٌ, (Az, S, K,) (tropical:) The market became stagnant, or dull, with respect to traffic; (Az, S, K;) contr. of دَرَّت. (Az, S.) b3: [See also غِرَارٌ, below.]

A2: غارّ

أُنْثَاهُ, said of the قُمْرِىّ: see 1.4 اغرّهُ He, or it, emboldened him, or encouraged him; [by deceiving him;] syn. أَجْسَرَهُ: so says AHeyth; and he cites the following verse: أَغَرَّ هِشَامًا مِنْ أَخِيهِ ابْنِ أُمِّهِ قَوَادِمُ صَأْنٍ يَسَّرَتْ وَرَبِيعُ meaning [The teats of sheep that have yielded abundance of milk and of young, and spring herbage, i. e.] the abundance of his sheep and their milk, have emboldened Hishám against his brother, the son of his mother, [to pursue a wrong course towards him, and] to forsake him, thinking himself in dependent of him: the poet makes قوادم to belong to sheep, whereas they properly belong to the udders of camels, using the word metaphorically. (TA.) [But I incline to think that the أَ in أَغَرَّ is the interrogative particle, and that its explanation is أَجَسَّرَ, with the same particle; and the more so as I have not found any authority, if this be not one, for أَجْسَرَ in the sense of جَسَّرَ: so that the meaning of the verse is, Have the teats, &c.? and it shows that غَرَّهُ مِنْهُ, not أَغَرَّهُ, means جَسَّرَهُ عَلَيْهِ, like غَرَّهُ بِهِ. See 1.] b2: Also He caused him to fall into peril, danger, jeopardy, hazard, or risk. (TA.) [But perhaps this meaning is also derived from a misunderstanding of the verse quoted above. See again 1.]8 اغترّ He became deceived, or beguiled; (S, K;) made to desire what was vain, or false; (K;) بِشَىْءٍ by a thing. (S.) [See also 10.] b2: He was negligent, inattentive, inadvertent, inconsiderate, heedless, or unprepared; (S, K;) he thought himself secure, and therefore was not on his guard. (Msb.) [See again 10.]

A2: اغترَهُ He, or it, came to him when he was negligent, inadvertent, heedless, or unprepared; (T, S, TA;) as also ↓ استغرّهُ: (T, K, TA:) or he sought to avail himself of his negligence, inadvertence, heedlessness, or unpreparedness; as also اغترّبِهِ. (TA.) 10 استغرّ i. q. اغترّ [which see in two places: but in what sense, is not said]: (K, TA:) said of a man. (TA.) A2: استغرّهُ: see اِغْتَرَّهُ.

R. Q. 1 غَرْغَرَ, (IKtt,) inf. n. غَرْغَرَةٌ, (K,) He gargled with water; (IKtt, K;) and in like manner with medicine; (IKtt;) made it to reciprocate in his throat, (IKtt, K,) not ejecting it, nor suffering it to descend easily down his throat; (IKtt;) as also ↓ تَغَرْغَرَ. (K.) b2: غَرْغَرَتِ القِدْرُ The cooking-pot made a sound in boiling. (TA.) And غرغر اللَّحْمُ The flesh-meat made a sound in broiling. (K.)

(TA.) b4: غرغر بِصُوْتِهِ He (a pastor) reiterated his voice in his throat. (S.) A2: غَرْغَرَهُ He slaughtered him by cutting his throat with a knife. (K, * TA.) b2: He pierced him in his throat with a spear-head (IKtt, K.) A3: And غَرْغَرَةٌ signifies also The breaking of the bone of the nose, and of the head of a flask or bottle. (K.) R. Q. 2 تَغَرْغَرَ: see R. Q. 1. b2: تغرغر صَوْتُهُ فِى حَلْقِهِ His (a pastor's) voice became reiterated in his throat. (S.) b3: تغرغرت عَيْنُهُ بِالدَّمْحِ The water came and went repeatedly in his eye. (TA.) غَرٌّ, (S, O, K, TA,) with fet-h, (S, O, TA, [in the CK erroneously said to be with damm,]) A crease, wrinkle, ply, plait, or fold, (S, O, K, TA,) in skin, (O, * S,) accord. to Lth, from fatness, (TA,) or in a skin, (K,) and in a garment, or piece of cloth; (S, O, K;) syn. كَسْرٌ, (S, O,) or كَسْرٌ مَتَثَنٍّ, (K,) and مَكْسِرٌ: (S, * O:) pl. غُرُورٌ. (S, TA.) [Hence,] غُرُورُ الفَخِذَيْنِ The furrows [or creases or depressed lines] between the muscles of the thighs. (TA.) And غُرُورُ الذِّرَاعَيْنِ The duplicatures [or creases] between the [sinew's called] حِباَل [pl. of حَبْلٌ q. v.] of the fore arms. (TA.) And غَرُّ الظَّهْرِ The duplicature [or crease] of the مَتْن [or flesh and sinew next the backbone]: or, as ISk says, غَرُّ المَتْنِ signifies the line of the متن. (TA.) And غُرُورُ القَدَمِ The creases of the foot. (TA.) And one says, طَوَيْتُ الثَّوْبَ عَلَى غَرِّهِ I folded the garment, or piece of cloth, according to its first, or original, folding. (S, O, TA. [In the TA said to be tropical; but for this I see no reason.]) And hence طَوَيْتُهُ عَلَى غَرِّهِ meaning (assumed tropical:) I left him as he was, without making known his case: a saying proverbially used in relation to one who is made to rely upon his own opinion. (Har p. 233. [In Freytag's Arab Prov., ii. 38, it is not well rendered nor well explained.]) Hence also the saying of 'Áïsheh, respecting her father, mentioned in a trad., فَرَدَّ نَشَرَ الإِسْلَامِ عَلَى غَرِّهِ i. e. (assumed tropical:) And he reduced what was disordered of El-Islám to its [primitive] state [of order]: (O:) meaning that he considered the results of the apostacy [that had commenced], and counteracted the disease thereof with its [proper] remedy.

(TA.) غِرٌّ Inexperienced in affairs; (S, K;) ignorant of affairs; negligent, or heedless, of them; (Msb;) applied to a man, (S, Msb,) or to a youth, or young man; (K;) as also ↓ غَارٌّ (Msb) and ↓ غَرِيرٌ; (S, K;) and applied to a young woman; as also غِرَّةٌ and ↓ غَرِيرَةٌ (S, K:) or these three epithets, applied to a girl, signify young, inexperienced in affairs, and not knowing what woman know of love: (A'Obeyd:) the pl. of غِرٌّ is أَغْرَارٌ (S) and غِرَارٌ; (TA;) and of ↓ غَرِيرٌ, أَغْرَّآءُ (S, K) and أَغِرَّةٌ [which is a pl. of pane.] (K.) [And غِرَّةٌ is also used as a pl.] Paradise says, يَدْ خُلْنِى غِرَّةُ النَّاسِ The simple, of mankind, who prefer obscurity. and discard the affairs of the present world, and provide themselves for the world to come, enter me.

(L.) b2: [A star, or blaze, or white mark, on the forehead or face of a horse;] a whiteness on the forehead of a horse, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, *) above the size of a دِرْهَم; (S, Msb;) or of the size of a درهم; (Mgh;) as also ↓ غُرْغُرَةٌ: (S, K:) or it is a general term [for a star or blaze], including different kinds, as the قُرْحَة and the شِمْرَاخ and the like: or, if round, it is termed وَتِيرَةٌ; and if long, شَادِخَةٌ: or as, ISd thinks, the space itself, of the face, that is occupied by whiteness; not the whiteness: pl. غُرَرٌ. (TA.) [See also أَغَرُّ.] b3: In a dog, A white speck, or a small white spot, above each of the eyes: so in a trad., in which it is said that the black dog having two such marks is to be killed.

(TA.) b2: [And hence,] (assumed tropical:) The first, or commencement, of El-Islám; (TA;) and of anything. (S.) b3: The whiteness of the teeth; and the [first that appears] of them.

(Aboo-Sa'eed. S. Mgh, Msb, K.) and a female slave, (S, Msb, K,) or a clever female slave: (Aboo-Sa'eed, Mgh:) its application to a slave, male or female, [among articles of property,] is most common. (TA.) It has this last signification (a male or female slave) in a trad. in which it relates to the compensation for the destroying of a child in the womb: (TA:) as though this term were applied, by a synecdoche, to the whole person; (S;) the word properly signifying the “ face; ” in like manner as the terms رَقَبَةٌ and رَأْسٌ are employed: (Mgh:) Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-Alà is related to have said that it there means a white male slave or a white female slave: but this is not a condition accord. to the doctors of practical law; for they hold the term to mean a male or female slave whose price amounts to the tenth part of the whole price of blood: (IAth:) or to the twentieth part thereof: (K, T:) or it means a slave of the best sort. (Mgh.) The Rájiz says, كُلُّ قَتِيلٍ فِى كُلَيْبٍ غُرَّهْ حَتَّى يَنَالَ القَتْلُ آلَ مُرَّهْ Every one slain in retaliation for Kuleyb is as a slave, until the slaying reach the family of Mur-rah.

(TA.) A3: [It is also an inf. n.: see 1, latter part.]

غِرَّةٌ Negligence; inattention; inadvertence, or inadvertency; inconsiderateness; heedlessness; or unpreparedness: (S, Mgh, Msb, K:) [pl. غِرَّاتٌ and غِرَرٌ: see an ex. of the former in a verse cited voce شَفَعَ, and exs. of both in a verse cited voce دَرَى.] It is said in a prov., الغِرَّةُ تَجْلِبُ الدِّرَّةَ Inadvertence brings the means of subsistence: (TA:) or paucity of milk causes to come abundance thereof: applied to him who gives little and from whom much is hoped for afterwards. (Meyd. [See Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 179: and see also غِراَرٌ.]) [Hence,] عَلَى غِرَّةٍ [On an occasion of negligence, &c.; unexpectedly]. (K in art. عرض; &c.) [And عَنْ غِرَّةٍ In consequence of inadvertence: see an ex. in a verse cited voce زَلَقٌ.] Also Inexperience in affairs. (S.) غِرَّةٌ and غَرَارَةٌ signify the same. (A'Obeyd.) [The latter is an inf. n.: see 1.] See also غُرَّةٌ, second sentence. b2: غِرَّةٌ بِاللّٰهِ means Boldness against God. (Mgh.) A2: [See also غِرٌّ.]

It is said in a trad., نَهَى عَنْ بَيْعِ الغَرَرِ He (Mohammad) forbade the sale of hazard, or risk; (S, Mgh, Msb;) of which it is unknown whether the thing will be or not; (Mgh;) such as the sale of fish in the water, and of birds in the air: (S, Mgh:) or, accord. to 'Alee, in which one is not secure from being deceived: (Mgh:) or of which the outward semblance deceives the buyer, and the intrinsic reality is unknown: (TA:) or that is without any written statement (عُهْدَة), and without confidence. (As, Mgh.) b2: حَبْلٌ غَرَرٌ means غَيْرُ مَوْثُوقٍ بِهِ [i. e., app., A bond, or compact, in which trust, or confidence, is not placed]. (TA.) A2: See also غَرِيرٌ.

غِرَارٌ Paucity of milk of a camel: (K:) or deficiency thereof. (S.) [See 3.] It is said in a prov., respecting the hastening a thing before its time, سَبَقَ دِرَّتُهُ غِرَارَهُ [lit., His abundant flow of milk preceded his paucity thereof]: (As:) or سَبَقَ دِرَّتَهُ غِرَارُهُ [lit., his paucity of milk preceded his abundance thereof; agreeably with an explanation of Z, who says that it is applied to him who does evil before he does good: see Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 613: and see also غِرَّةٌ]. (So in my copies of the S.) b2: Hence, (assumed tropical:) Paucity of sleep. (As, A'Obeyd, S.) b3: [Hence also,] in prayer, (tropical:) A deficiency in, (K,) or an imperfect performance of, (S,) the bowing of the body, and the prostration, (S, K,) and the purification. (K.) And in salutation, The saying (in reply to السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ) وَعَلَيْكُمْ, not وَعَلَيْكُمُ السَّلَامُ: (T, TA:) or the saying سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكُمْ (K) or سَلَامٌ عَلَيْكَ (M) [without ال prefixed to سلام: as though it were a deficient form; but it is the form specially sanctioned by the Kur-án]: or the replying by saying عَلَيْكَ, not عَليْكُمْ. (K.) This is said in explanation of a trad., لاَ غِرَارَ فِى صَلَاةٍ وَلَا تَسْلِيمٍ [There shall be no deficiency in prayer, nor in salutation]: but accord. to one relation, it is لا غرار فى صلاة ولا تَسْلِيمَ, meaning, that the person praying shall not salute nor be saluted: in the former case, تسليم is an adjunct to صلاة: in the latter, it is an adjunct to غرار, so that the meaning is, There shall be no deficiency nor salutation in prayer. (TA.) b4: Also (tropical:) Little sleep (S, K) &c. (K.) El-Farezdak uses the expression نَوْمُهُنَّ غِراَرٌ Their sleep is little.

(So in some copies of the S, and in the O: in other copies of the S, لَبِثَ القَوْمُ غِرَارَ شَهْرٍ [like the phrase immediately preceding].) b7: And, accord. to As, غِرَارٌ signifies A way, course, mode, or manner. (S, O, TA.) One says, رَمَيْتُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَسْهُمٍ عَلَى غِرَارٍ وَاحِدٍ [I shot three arrows] in one course. (S, O, TA.) And وَلَدَتْ فُلَانَةُ ثَلَاثَةَ بَنِينَ عَلَى غِرَارٍ, (S,) or عَلَى غِرَارٍ وَاحِدٍ, (TA,) i. e. [Such a woman brought forth three sons,] one after another, (S, TA,) without any girl among them.

(S, O.) b8: Also The model, or pattern, according to which iron heads (S, K) of arrows (S) are fashioned, (S, K,) in order to their being made right. (K.) One says, ضَرَبَ نِصَالَهُ عَلَى غِرَارٍ وَاحِدٍ (S, TA) i. e. [He fashioned his arrow-heads according to] one model, or pattern.

(S.) غَرُورٌ Very deceitful; applied in this sense as an epithet to the present world; (Msb;) or what deceives one; (K;) such as a man, and a devil, or other thing; (As, TA;) or such as property or wealth, and rank or station, and desire, and a devil: (B, TA:) and ↓ غُرُورٌ signifies a thing by which one is deceived, of worldly goods or advantages: (S:) or the former signifies the devil, specially; (Yaakoob, S, K;) because he deceives men by false promises and by inspiring hopes; or because he urges a man to do those things which are causes of his being loved but which are followed by that which grieves him: (TA:) and this last sense it has, accord. to ISk, in the Kur xxxi. 33 and xxxv. 5: (S:) also the present world; (K;) as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates: and this sense is assigned to it by some as used in the passages of the Kur-án to which reference has just been made. (TA.) [It is masc. and fem., agreeably with analogy.]

(Az.) See also غَرُورٌ.

غَرِيرٌ Deceived; beguiled; made to desire what is vain, or false; (A'Obeyd, K;) and so ↓ مَغْرُورٌ. (K.) And you say likewise, مِنْكَ ↓ أَنَا غَرَرٌ, in the sense of مَغْرُورٌ [I am deceived by thee]. (TA.) And ↓ مَغْرُورٌ signifies also A man who marries to a woman in the belief that she is free, and finds her to be a slave. (TA.) b2: See also غِرٌّ, in three places. b3: It is said in a prov., أَنَا غَرِيرُكَ مِنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ, meaning I am one possessing knowledge in this affair so that when thou askest me of it I will inform thee respecting it without being prepared for it and without consideration: so says Az: and Z says the like; i. e. I [am one who] will answer thee if thou ask me unexpectedly respecting this affair by reason of the soundness of my knowledge of the true state of the case: or [it means I am a deceived informant of thee respecting this affair; for] as As says, the meaning is, thou art not deceived by me, but I am the person deceived; the case being this, that false information came to me, and I acquainted thee with it, and it was not as I told thee; I having only related what I had heard.

b3: حَفَرَتِ الأَسْنَانُ, aor. ـِ (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. حَفْرٌ; (S, Msb;) and حَفِرَت, aor. ـَ (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. حَفَرٌ, in the dial. of BenooAsad, (S, Msb,) and this is the worse of these two forms, (S,) and حَفْرٌ; (El-Wá'ee;) and حُفِرَت; (K;) (tropical:) The teeth became affected with what is termed حَفْرٌ [q. v. infrà] or حَفَرٌ: (S, Msb, K:) or became unsound: (Mgh:) and حَفَرَ فُوهُ and حَفِرَ his teeth cankered. (A.) IDrst says, in the Expos. of the Fs, that حَفَرَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَفْرَ فُوهُ, is trans.; and that the cause of حَفْر of the teeth, [or the agent of the verb حَفَرَ,] is old age, or the continuance of a yellow incrustation, [or tartar,] or some kind of canker that effects them: but that the verb in the phrase حَفِرَتْ سِنُّهُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. حَفَرٌ, is intrans. (MF.) [The truth probably is, that the former verb is both trans. and intrans., and hence حُفِرَتِ الأَسْنَانُ; and that the latter is intrans. only.] b4: And حَفِرَ, aor. ـَ (assumed tropical:) It was, or became, in a bad, corrupt, or unsound, state. (Az.) 3 حافر, (A,) inf. n. مُحَافَرَةٌ, (TA,) He (a jerboa) went deep into his hole; (A;) so deep that he could not be dug out. (TA.) 4 احفر فُلَانًا بِئْرًا He assisted such a one to dig a well.

(TA.

يُحْفِرُ لِلْقٌرُوحِ [in the TA, تُحْفِر القُرُوح, which is an evident mistake,] meaning, he has his two corner nippers [in each jaw] in a wabbling, or loose, state: this is when he has completed five years: then the term إِبْدَآءٌ is applied to him as before described: then he is [also said to be]

(Msb.) b2: See also حَفِيرٌ.

حَفِيرٌ is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ [meaning Dug, excavated, hollowed out, or cleared out, in the ground]. (TA.)

Or they used to say this on the occasion of racing and betting: and the meaning is, when the horse's hoof first falls upon the dug ground [at the goal]: (Abu-l-'Abbás, Az, K:) ↓ حَافِرَةٌ, (Abu-l-'Abbás,) or حَافِرٌ, (K,) signifying dug ground; (Abu-l- 'Abbás, K; *) ground that is dug by a horse's feet; (Har p. 653;) like as one says مَآءٌ دَافِقٌ, meaning مَدْفُوقٌ. (TA.) Lth says that the saying means, when thou buyest it, thou dost not quit thy place until thou payest ready money. (TA.) This was its origin: then it came to be so often said as to be used with reference to any priority. (K.) b6: [Thus,] ↓ حَافِرَةٌ signifies (tropical:) The original state or constitution of a thing; that wherein it was created: and the returning in a thing, so that the end thereof is brought back to its beginning. (K.) It is said in the Kur [lxxix. 10], أَئِنَّا

↓ لَمَرْدُودُونَ فِى الحَافِرَةِ, i. e., (tropical:) Shall we indeed be restored to our first state? (S:) i. e., to life? (Fr:) or to the present world, as we were: (IAar:) or to our first creation, after our death. (TA.) IAar cites the following verse: عَلَى صَلَعٍ وَشَيْبٍ أَحَافِرَةً

(S, TA.) And صَبِىٌّ مَحْفُورٌ (assumed tropical:) A child having a pimple, or small pustule, in the gum. (El-Wá'ee.) فُلَانٌ أَرْوَغُ مِنْ يَرْبُوعٍ مُحَافِرٍ Such a one is more elusive than a jerboa that goes so deep into his hole that he cannot be dug out. (A, TA.)
