T,
accord. to different copies;) and ↓ رَمَّلَتْ [alone], (

inf. n. of رَمَلَ [
q. v.]: (
M,
K: *) and
Kh says that it is also applied to any meagre verse or poetry, incongruous in structure; such being so named by the Arabs without their defining anything respecting it; as, for instance, the saying [of 'Abeed Ibn-El-Abras (
TA in arts. ذنب and قطب)], فَالقُطَبِيَّاتُ فَالذَّنُوبُ أَقْفَرَ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ مَلْحوبُ [Melhoob (the name of a place,
K in art. لحب) has become destitute of its inhabitants, and El-Kutabeeyát, (by which is meant a certain water, called القُطَبِيَّةُ, with its environs,
K* and
TA in art. قطب,) and Edh-Dhanoob (the name of a place,
TA in art. ذنب)]: he says also that, generally, the مَجْزُوْء [i. e. what is curtailed of two of the original feet, or what consists of two feet only,] is thus called by them:
accord. to
IJ, it is applied by them to verse, or poetry, that is incongruous, unsound, or faulty, in structure, and such as falls short of the original [standard so as not to answer completely to any regular kind or species]: (
M,
TA:) thus it signifies as first explained above, and also any verse, or poetry, that is not such as is termed قَصِيد [as meaning that of which the hemistichs are complete] nor such as is termed رَجَز [which some hold to be not verse, or poetry, but a kind of rhyming prose]. (

TA.) It is said in a
trad., of the Prophet, that he was lying upon his side on the رمال of a mat, which had made an impression upon his side: (

Msb:) or أَرْمَلُ is applied to a man, and ↓ أَرْمَلَةٌ to a woman, (
M,
K,) and the latter also to a
pl. number, (

M,
K:) or as meaning [مِسْكِينٌ and]
مِسْكِينَةٌ [and مَسَاكِينُ, i. e. destitute, or indigent, &c.]: (
K:) and the
pl. is أَرَامِلُ and أَرَامِلَةٌ; (
M,
K;) after the manner of substs., because the quality of a
subst. is predominant therein: (
M:) ↓ أَرْمَلَةٌ is applied to any collective number of men and women, or men without women, or women without men, after they have become in need or want: (
M:) [and] it is applied [also] to a man and to a woman as meaning poor so as to be unable to obtain anything: (

Mgh as from the
T:)
accord. to
ISk, أَرَامِلُ is applied to a number of men and women, as meaning مَسَاكِينُ [
expl. above]; (
T,

Ibn-Buzurj mentions the saying, إِنّ بَيْتَ فُلَانٍ لَضَخْمٌ مَا يُحْمِّلُونَهُ إِلَّا مَا اسْتَفْقَرُوا لَهُ ↓ وَإِنَّهُمْ لَأَرْمَلَةُ, meaning [Verily the household of such a one is large, and verily they are destitute of what camels they may load therewith except] what they borrow [for that purpose]; (
T, *
TA;) i. e., they are a party not possessing camels, and unable to make a journey except upon camels that they borrow; [استفقروا being] from أُفْقِرَ ظَهْرَ بَعِيرِى signifying
“ he was lent the back of my camel. ” (
TA.) See also أُرْمُولَةٌ.
b2: ↓ أَرْمَلَةٌ is also applied to a woman as meaning Having no husband: (
T,
S,
M,
Msb,
K:) or a widow; one whose husband has died: (
IAmb,
Mgh:) or not if she possesses competence, or wealth: (Ibn-Buzurj,
T,
Mgh,
Msb,
K:) it is applied to her who has no husband because she is in need of him who would expend upon her; (
Msb;) or to her whose husband has died because her provision has gone and she has lost him who earned for her (
IAmb,
Mgh) and by means of whom her state of life had been good: (
IAmb:) in like manner, also, أَرْمَلُ is applied to a man as meaning having no wife, (
T,
S,
M,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,)
accord. to
KT (
T,
Mgh) and
Sh; (
Mgh;) like as أَيِّمٌ is applied to a man [as well as to a woman], and أَيِّمَةٌ to a woman: (
T:) or a widower; one whose wife has died: (
TA:) or أَرْمَلُ is not applied in this sense except in cases of deviation from the usual course of speech, (
IAmb,
Mgh,
Msb, [and the like is said in the
Mgh also as on the authority of
Lth, and in the
M as on the authority of
IJ,]) because the man's provision does not go in consequence of the death of his wife, since she is not his maintainer, (
IAmb,
Mgh,
Msb,) whereas he is her maintainer: (
IAmb:) Jereer says, كُلُّ الأَرَامِلِ قَدْ قَضَيْتَ حَاجَتَهَا فَمَنْ لِـ
ـحَاجَةِ هٰذَا الأَرَمَلِ الذَّكَرِ (
M,
TA,) or هٰذِى الأَرَامِلُ الخ; (
S,
Mgh; [in the former ascribed in one of my copies to an unnamed poet, and in the other, to El-Hotei-ah; but in the
Mgh, to Jereer, as in the
M;]) [i. e. All the widows, or these widows, thou hast accomplished their want; but who is there for the want of this male widowed person]; meaning thereby himself. (
M,
TA.) It is said that, if one bequeath his property to the أَرَامِل, some of it is to the men whose wives have died: (
Mgh:)
IB says, on the authority of
IKt, that when a man says, “This property is for the أَرَامِل,” it is for the men and the women, because الأَرَامِلُ applies to the males and the women; but he adds,
IAmb says that it is to be given to the women exclusively of the men, because الارامل generally applied to the women. (
TA. [This is cited in the
TA as though relating to ارامل as meaning مَسَاكِين: but
IAmb evidently uses it here as applying to women whose husbands have died; and this is its predominant meaning.])
b3: It is also applied to a [lizard of the kind called] ضَبّ, in the following saying of a rájiz, أُحبُّ أَنْ أَصْطَادَ ضَبًّا سَحْبَلَا رَعَى الرَّبِيعَ وَالشِّتَآءَ أَرْمَلَا (
