(A, K.) 2 تَجْبِيهٌ The mounting a fornicator, or an adulterer, upon an ass, and turning his face towards the tail; whence the trad. of the Jews respecting the adulterer, يُحُمَّمُ وَيُجَبَّهُ ويُجْلَدُ [He shall have his face blackened with charcoal, and be mounted on an ass with his face towards the tail, and be flogged]: (Mgh:) or the mounting two fornicators, or adulterers, upon an ass, and turning the backs of their heads towards each other, (JK, Mgh,) and parading them round about; thus accord. to the Tekmileh: (Mgh:) or the blackening [with charcoal] the faces of two fornicators, or adulterers, (أَنْ يُحَمَّرَ in the K being a mistake for أَنْ يُحُمَّمَ, i. e. يُسَوَّدَ, TA,) and mounting them upon a camel or an ass, and turning their faces in contrary directions: accord. to analogy, it should mean turning their faces towards each other; for it is from الجَبْتَةُ: تَجْبِيهٌ also signifies the bending, inclining, lowering, or hanging down, the head towards the ground: and it may be hence; (i. e. it may be hence that it is applied to him who is mounted on a beast in the manner described above; TA;) because he to whom this is done bends down his head in shame and confusion: or it may be from جَبَهَهُ meaning "he did to him a thing disliked, or hated." (K.) 8 اِجْتِبَاهٌ The deeming [one] rude, coarse, unkind, hard, or churlish. (JK.) b2: And The fearing [a person or thing].

(Msb, TA.) b2: [Hence,] الجَبْهَةُ (assumed tropical:) A certain Mansion of the Moon; [the Tenth Mansion;] (S, K, Kzw;) consisting of four stars; (S;) the four stars [ζ, γ, η, and α,] in the neck and heart of Leo; [regarded by the Arabs as the fore-part, or forehead, of Leo;] (Kzw in his descr. of Leo;) between each of which and the next to it is the space of a whip's length; the northernmost of them called by astrologers الأَسَدُ. (Kzw in his descr. of the Mansions of the Moon.) b3: Also (assumed tropical:) The moon (K, TA) itself: but [it rather seems to mean the upper part of the disc of the moon; for] it is said in the M that a certain unknown poet has metaphorically assigned a جبهة to the moon. (TA.) b4: Also جَبْهَةٌ, (tropical:) The chief of a people, or company of men; (JK, Mgh, K, TA;) like as one says the وَجْه thereof. (Mgh, TA.) b5: (tropical:) The generous and manly, or manly and noble, persons of a people, or company of men: or men exerting themselves in the case of a bloodwit or a debt or other obligation, (K, TA,) or in repairing the condition of a poor man, (TA,) and who come not to any one but he is ashamed to turn them back, (K, TA,) or who are seldom or never turned back by anyone: so, accord. to Aboo-Sa'eed, in a trad. in which it is said that there shall be no poor-rate in the case of the جبهة. (TA.) b6: (tropical:) A company, or collected number, of men, (JK, S, Msb,) and of horses: (JK, Msb:) or, of horses, the best: (TA:) and [simply] horses; (Lth, S, M, Mgh, K;) a word having no sing., or n. un.: (M, K:) accord. to Lth, (TA,) having this last meaning in the trad. above mentioned; (S, Mgh, TA;) because horses are the best of beasts. (Mgh.) A2: (tropical:) Abjectness, or ignominy; (JK, M, K, TA;) and a state of annoyance, or molestation: (Z, TA:) thought by ISd to be from جَبَهَهُ meaning “ he encountered him with that which he disliked or hated,” or “ he accused him thereof to his face; ” because the doing this causes one to experience abjectness, or ignominy. (TA.) It is said to have this meaning in a trad., in which it is said, فَإِنَّ اللّٰهَ قَدْ أَرَاحَكُمْ مِنَ الجَبْهَةِ والسَّجَّةِ والبَجَّةِ, i. e. For God hath relieved you from abjectness, or ignominy, &c., and milk diluted with water, and blood drawn from a vein [of a camel], which the Arabs used to eat: or in this trad., (TA,) الجَبْتَهَةُ is the name of a certain idol (ISd, K, TA) that was worshipped in the Time of Ignorance: (TA:) and السجّة and البجّة were two idols. (S and K in art. سج.) وَرَدْنَا مَآءً لَهُ جَبِيهَةٌ We came to a water that was salt, so that the drinking thereof did not take away the thirst of our cattle: (ISk, JK, S:) or that was altered for the worse in taste and colour, from some such cause as long standing, though still drinkable; or covered with the green substance called طُحْلُب and with leaves: or that was deep in the bottom, difficult to give to drink. (ISk, S.) [See also 1, last meaning but one.]

(TA.) جَابِهٌ, applied to a gazelle, (JK,) or to a bird or a wild animal, (K,) That meets one with its face or forehead; and such is of evil omen: (K:) contr. of قَعِيدٌ.

(S.) b2: الأَجْبَهُ The lion; (K;) because of the width of his جَبْهَة. (TA.) جبو and جبى [The words belonging to the former of these two arts. cannot well be classed by themselves, being intimately connected with those of the latter, which are the more numerous and common, and from which they are generally easily distinguishable.]1 جَبَى, (K,) first Pers\. جَبَيْتُ, (Ks, S, Er-Rághib,) aor. ـِ (K;) and جَبَى, aor. ـَ (K,) said by MF to be unknown, and also, because neither the second nor the third radical is a faucial letter, unreasonable, but mentioned by Sb, though held by him to be of weak authority, and mentioned also by IAar, as extr., like أَبَى, aor. ـْ (TA;) and جَبَا, (TA,) first Pers\. جَبَوْتُ, (Ks, S, TA,) aor. ـُ (TA;) inf. n. [of the first and second] جَبْىٌ (Sh, K) and [probably of the last only] جَبًا and جِبًا and جُبًا and [of the last, but whether in the first or the second of the senses here following is not shown,] جِبْوَةٌ; (K; [or this last has a different application, explained below;]) He collected water in a trough or tank for beasts &c. [Ks, S, K, Er-Rághib.) b2: And (hence, metaphorically, Er-Rághib, TA) the first of these verbs, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, Er-Rághib,) and the second, (K,) and the third; (S, Msb, TA;) inf. n. (of the first, S, Msb) جِبَايَةٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K, Er-Rághib) and (of the last, S, Msb) جِبَاوَةٌ (S, Msb, K) and جَبْوٌ (TA) [and probably جِبْوَةٌ also, which see above]; (tropical:) He collected the [tax called] خَرَاج, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, Er-Rághib,) and [other] property. (Msb, TA.) The last of these verbs is said in the S to be originally with ء, though pronounced without ء; but IB says that this is not the case, and that it has not been heard with ء. (TA.) You say also, جَبَاهُ القَوْمَ (assumed tropical:) [He collected it from the people, or company of men]; (M, K, * TA;) and جَبَى مِنْهُمْ (assumed tropical:) [He collected from them]. (M, K, TA.) b3: Also جَبَا [or جَبَى], (TA,) first Pers\.

جَبَيْتُ, (Zj, TA,) (assumed tropical:) He appropriated a thing purely to himself, exclusively of any partner; chose it, or took it in preference, for himself. (Zj, TA.) And hence, (Zj, TA,) ↓ اجتباهُ (assumed tropical:) He chose it, or selected it, (Zj, S, K) لِنَفْسِهِ for himself. (TA.) A2: And جَبَى and جَبَا, [originally جَبَأَ,] He returned, receded, retreated, or went back. (TA.) 2 جبّى, inf. n. تَجْبِيَةٌ, He placed his hands upon his knees, (K, TA,) in prayer; (TA;) or upon the ground: or he fell prostrate; or fell upon his face: (K:) or he lowered his body and his hands, and raised his buttocks: (Ham p. 801:) [or] تجبية signifies a man's standing [with the hands upon the knees] in the manner of the رَاكِع: (S, K: *) accord. to A'Obeyd, what is thus termed is of two kinds: one is the placing the hands upon the knees, while standing: the other, the prostrating oneself, or falling upon the face, lying down; which is سُجُودٌ: (S:) or the bending down, and placing the hands upon the knees; because it is a bringing-together of the limbs. (Mgh.) A2: جبّاهُ, inf. n. as above, meaning He gave to him, is vulgar. (TA.) 4 اجبى in the trad. مَنْ أَجْبَى فَقَدْ أَرْبَى is originally أَجْبَأَ [q. v.]: (S:) accord. to IAth, it is a corruption of the relater, or the ء is suppressed to assimilate the verb to اربى (TA.) The inf. n., إِجْبَآءٌ, is variously explained, as follows: (TA:) The selling seed-produce before it shows itself to be in a good state: (A'Obeyd, Th, S, K:) and a man's hiding his camels from the collector of the poor-rate: (IAar, A'Obeyd, K:) and i. q. عِينَةٌ; i. e. the selling to a man a commodity for a certain price to be paid at a certain period, then buying it of him with ready money for a less price than that for which it was sold. (TA.) 8 اِجْتِبَآءٌ (assumed tropical:) The drawing forth property from the places in which it is known, or presumed, or accustomed, to be. (TA.) b2: (assumed tropical:) The collecting in the way of choice, or selection. (Er-Rághib, TA.) b3: See also 1, last sentence but one. b4: Also (assumed tropical:) God's particular, or peculiar, distinguishing of men by abundant bounty, from which various blessings result to them without their labour; as happens to prophets and some others. (Er-Rághib, TA.) b5: Also اجتباهُ, (assumed tropical:) He forged it: and he extemporized it. (TA.) Hence, in the Kur [vii. 202], قَالُوا لَوْلَا اجْتَبَيْتَهَا (assumed tropical:) They say, Wherefore hast thou not forged it, (Fr, TA,) or produced it, (Th, TA,) or invented it, (Jel,) or put it together by forgery, (Bd,) of thyself? (Fr, Th, Bd, Jel, TA:) or wherefore hast thou not sought it, or demanded it, of God? (Bd.) جَبًا, or جَبًى, (as in different copies of the K,) written with ا and with ى, (TA,) The camel-waterer's going in advance of the camels a day before their coming to the water, and collecting for them water in the drinking-trough, and then bringing them to it (IAar, K, TA) on the morrow. (IAar, TA.) [App. an inf. n., of which, in this sense, the verb is not mentioned.] So in the verse, بِالرَّيْثِ مَا أَرْوَيْتُهَا لَا بِالعَجَلْ وَبِالجَبَا أَرْوَيْتُهَا لَا بِالقَبَلْ [Slowly I satisfied their thirst; not hastily: and by going in advance of them a day, and collecting for them water in the trough, and bringing them to it on the morrow, I satisfied their thirst; not by pouring the water into the trough while they were drinking, without having prepared any for them beforehand]. (IAar, TA.) A2: Also the former, Water collected [in a trough]; and so ↓ جُبْوَةٌ, with damm. (TA. [See جِبًا.]) b2: A wateringtrough (K, TA) in which water is collected: (TA:) or the station of the drawer of water, upon the [upper part of the] casing.

A3: جَبَا meaning A gift without compensation is a vulgar word. (TA.) جِبًا Water collected (T, S, K) in a trough, (T, K,) being drawn from a well, (T, TA,) for camels; (S;) [like جَبًا;] as also ↓ جِبْوَةٌ, (K, TA, and so in a copy of the S, but omitted in the CK,) or ↓ جَبْوَةٌ, (so in two copies of the S,) and ↓ جُبْوَةٌ also, (so in a copy of the S, [see جَبًا,]) and ↓ جَبَاوَةٌ, (K, TA, and so in a copy of the S,) and ↓ جَبَاوَةٌ, (K, TA, and so in another copy of the S, but omitted in the CK,) and ↓ جِبَآءَةٌ: (TA as from the K, but not in the CK: [perhaps a mistranscription for ↓ جِبَايَةٌ:]) but accord. to IAmb, جِبًا is pl. of ↓ جِبْيَةٌ.

[This is commonly of a round form, with a running string; so that it is converted into a bag to contain the food, at one time, and at another time is spread flat upon the ground, when persons want to eat upon it.] b3: And hence, (tropical:) The thing [whatever it be] upon which one eats: (TA:) [in the desert, it is generally a round piece of skin, such as I have described above: in the towns, in the houses of the middle classes, a round tray of tinned copper, which is usually placed on a low stool; and in the dwellings of some of the highest classes, and the lowest, respectively, of silver and wood:] accord. to the T, سُفْرَةٌ has the last of the significations given before this, and the thing which it denotes is thus called because it is spread when one eats upon it.

هَمَذَانُ:
بالتحريك، والذال معجمة، وآخره نون، في الإقليم الرّابع، وطولها من جهة المغرب ثلاث وسبعون درجة، وعرضها ست وثلاثون درجة، قال هشام بن الكلبي: همذان سميت بهمذان بن الفلّوج ابن سام بن نوح، عليه السّلام، وهمذان وأصبهان أخوان بنى كل واحد منهما بلدة، ووجد في بعض كتب السريانيين في أخبار الملوك والبلدان: إن الذي بنى همذان يقال له كرميس بن حليمون، وذكر بعض علماء الفرس أن اسم همذان إنما كان نادمه ومعناه المحبوبة، وروي عن شعبة أنه قال: الجبال عسكر وهمذان معمعتها وهي أعذبها ماء وأطيبها هواء، وقال ربيعة بن عثمان: كان فتح همذان في جمادى الأولى على رأس ستة أشهر من مقتل عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، وكان الذي فتحها المغيرة بن شعبة في سنة 24 من الهجرة، وفي آخر: وجّه المغيرة بن شعبة وهو عامل عمر بن الخطاب على الكوفة بعد عزل عمار بن ياسر عنها جرير بن عبد الله البجلي إلى همذان في سنة 23 فقاتله أهلها وأصيبت عينه بسهم فقال: أحتسبها عند الله الذي زين بها وجهي ونوّر لي ما شاء ثم سلبنيها في سبيله، وجرى أمر همذان على مثل ما جرى عليه أمر نهاوند وذلك في آخر سنة 23 وغلب على أرضها قسرا وضمّها المغيرة إلى كثير بن شهاب والي الدينور، وإليه ينسب قصر كثير في نواحي الدينور، وقال بعض علماء الفرس: كانت همذان أكبر مدينة بالجبال وكانت أربعة فراسخ في مثلها، طولها من الجبل إلى قرية يقال لها زينوآباذ، وكان صنف التجار بها وصنف الصيارف بسنجاباذ، وكان القصر الخراب الذي بسنجاباذ تكون فيه الخزائن والأموال، وكان صنف البزازين في قرية يقال لها برشيقان، فيقال إن بخت نصّر بعث إليها قائدا
يقال له صقلاب في خمسمائة ألف رجل فأناخ عليها وأقام يقاتل أهلها مدة وهو لا يقدر عليها، فلما أعيته الحيلة فيها وعزم على الانصراف استشار أهله فقالوا:
الرأي أن تكتب إلى بخت نصر وتعلمه أمرك وتستأذنه في الانصراف، فكتب إليه: أما بعد فإني وردت على مدينة حصينة كثيرة الأهل منيعة واسعة الأنهار ملتفة الأشجار كثيرة المقاتلة وقد رمت أهلها فلم أقدر عليها وضجر أصحابي المقام وضاقت عليهم الميرة والعلوفة فإن أذن لي الملك بالانصراف فقد انصرفت.
فلما وصل الكتاب إلى بخت نصر كتب إليه: أما بعد فقد فهمت كتابك ورأيت أن تصوّر لي المدينة بجبالها وعيونها وطرقها وقراها ومنبع مياهها وتنفذ إليّ بذلك حتى يأتيك أمري، ففعل صقلاب ذلك وصوّر المدينة وأنفذ الصورة إليه وهو ببابل، فلما وقف عليه جمع الحكماء وقال: أجيلوا الرأي في هذه الصورة وانظروا من أين تفتح هذه المدينة، فأجمعوا على أن مياه عيونها تحبس حولا ثم تفتح وترسل على المدينة فإنها تغرق، فكتب بخت نصر إلى صقلاب بذلك وأمره بما قاله الحكماء، ففتح ذلك الماء بعد حبسه وأرسله على المدينة فهدم سورها وحيطانها وغرق أكثر أهلها فدخلها صقلاب وقتل المقاتلة وسبى الذرّية وأقام بها فوقع في أصحابه الطاعون فمات عامتهم حتى لم يبق منهم إلا قليل ودفنوا في أحواض من خزف فقبورهم معروفة توجد في المحالّ والسكك إذا عمروا دورهم وخرّبوا، ولم تزل همذان بعد ذلك خرابا حتى كانت حرب دارا بن دارا والإسكندر فإن دارا استشار أصحابه في أمره لما أظله الإسكندر فأشاروا عليه بمحاربته بعد أن يحرز حرمه وأمواله وخزائنه بمكان حريز لا يوصل إليه ويتجرد هو للقتال، فقال:
انظروا موضعا حريزا حصينا لذلك، فقالوا له: إن من وراء أرض الماهين جبالا لا ترام وهي شبيهة بالسند وهناك مدينة منيعة عتيقة قد خربت وبارت وهلك أهلها وحولها جبال شامخة يقال لها همذان فالرأي للملك أن يأمر ببنائها وإحكامها وأن يجعل في وسطها حصنا يكون للحرم والخزائن والعيال والأموال ويبني حول الحصن دور القوّاد والخاصة والمرازبة ثم يوكل بالمدينة اثني عشر ألف رجل من خاصة الملك وثقاته يحمونها ويقاتلون عنها من رامها، قال: فأمر دارا ببناء همذان وبنى في وسطها قصرا عظيما مشرفا له ثلاثة أوجه وسماه ساروقا وجعل فيه ألف مخبإ لخزائنه وأمواله وأغلق عليه ثمانية أبواب حديد كل باب في ارتفاع اثني عشر ذراعا ثم أمر بأهله وولده وخزائنه فحوّلوا إليها وأسكنوها، وجعل في وسط القصر قصرا آخر صيّر فيه خواص حرمه وأحرز أمواله في تلك المخابىء، ووكل بالمدينة اثني عشر ألفا وجعلهم حراسا، وحكى بعض أهل همذان عنها مثل ما حكيناه أولا عن بخت نصر من حبس الماء وإطلاقه على البلد حتى خربه وفتحه، والله أعلم، ويقال إن أول من بنى همذان جم بن نوجهان بن شالخ بن أرفخشد بن سام بن نوح، عليه السّلام، وسماها سارو، ويعرب فيقال ساروق، وحصّنها بهمن بن إسفنديار، وإن دارا وجد المدينة حصينة المكان دارسة البناء فأعاد بناءها ثم كثر الناس بها في الزمان القديم حتى كانت منازلها تقدر بثلاثة فراسخ، وكان صنف الصاغة بها بقرية سنجاباذ واليوم تلك القرية على فرسخين من البلد، قال شيرويه في أخبار الفرس بلسانهم:
سارو جم كرد دارا كمر بست بهمن إسفنديار بسر آورد، معناه بنى الساروق جم ونطّقه دارا أي سوّره وعمم عليه سورا واستتمه وأحسنه بهمن بن إسفنديار، وذكر أيضا بعض مشايخ همذان أنها
أعتق مدينة بالجبل، واستدلوا على ذلك من بقية بناء قديم باق إلى الآن وهو طاق جسيم شاهق لا يدرى من بناه وللعامة فيه أخبار عامية ألغينا ذكرها خوف التهمة، وقال محمد بن بشار يذكر همذان وأروند:
ولقد أقول تيامني وتشاءمي ... وتواصلي ريما على همذان
بلد نبات الزعفران ترابه، ... وشرابه عسل بماء قنان
سقيا لأوجه من سقيت لذكرهم ... ماء الجوى بزجاجة الأحزان
كاد الفؤاد يطير مما شفّه ... شوقا بأجنحة من الخفقان
فكسا الربيع بلاد أهلك روضة ... تفترّ عن نفل وعن حوذان
حتى تعانق من خزاماك الذي ... بالجلهتين شقائق النعمان
وإذا تبجّست الثلوج تبجّست ... عن كوثر شبم وعن حيوان
متسلسلين على مذانب تلعة ... تثغو الجداء بها على الحملان
قال المؤلف: ولا شك عند كل من شاهد همذان بأنها من أحسن البلاد وأنزهها وأطيبها وأرفهها وما زالت محلّا للملوك ومعدنا لأهل الدين والفضل إلا أن شتاءها مفرط البرد بحيث قد أفردت فيه كتب وذكر أمره بالشعر والخطب وسنذكر من ذلك مناظرة جرت بين رجل من أهل العراق يقال له عبد القاهر بن حمزة الواسطي ورجل من همذان يقال له الحسين بن أبي سرح في أمرها فيه كفاية، قالوا:
وكانا كثيرا ما يلتقيان فيتحادثان الأدب ويتذاكران العلم وكان عبد القاهر لا يزال يذمّ الجبل وهواءه وأهله وشتاءه لأنه كان رجلا من أهل العراق وكان ابن أبي سرح مخالفا له كثيرا يذم العراق وأهله، فالتقيا يوما عند محمد بن إسحاق الفقيه وكان يوما شاتيا صادق البرد كثير الثلج وكان البرد قد بلغ من عبد القاهر مبالغه، فلما دخل وسلم قال: لعن الله الجبل ولعن ساكنيه وخص الله همذان من اللعن بأوفره وأكثره! فما أكدر هواءها وأشد بردها وأذاها وأشد مؤونتها وأقلّ خيرها وأكثر شرها، فقد سلط الله عليها الزمهرير الذي يعذب به أهل جهنم معما يحتاج الإنسان فيها من الدثار والمؤن المجحفة فوجوهكم يا أهل همذان مائلة وأنوفكم سائلة وأطرافكم خصرة وثيابكم متسخة وروائحكم قذرة ولحاكم دخانية وسبلكم منقطعة والفقر عليكم ظاهر والمستور في بلدكم مهتوك لأن شتاءكم يهدم الحيطان ويبرز الحصان ويفسد الطرق ويشعث الآطام، فطرقكم وحلة تتهافت فيها الدواب وتتقذر فيها الثياب وتتحطم الإبل وتخسف فيها الآبار وتفيض المياه وتكف السطوح وتهيج الرياح العواصف وتكون فيها الزلازل والخسوف والرعود والبروق والثلوج والدّمق فتنقطع عند ذلك السبل ويكثر الموت وتضيق المعايش، فالناس في جبلكم هذا في جميع أيام الشتاء يتوقعون العذاب ويخافون السخط والعقاب ثم يسمونه العدو المحاصر والكلب الكلب، ولذلك كتب عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، إلى بعض عماله: إنه قد أظلّكم الشتاء وهو العدو المحاصر فاستعدوا له الفراء واستنعلوا الحذاء، وقد قال الشاعر:
إذا جاء الشتاء فأدفئوني، ... فإن الشيخ يهدمه الشتاء
فالشتاء يهدم الحيطان فكيف الأبدان لا سيما شتاؤكم
الملعون، ثم فيكم أخلاق الفرس وجفاء العلوج وبخل أهل أصبهان ووقاحة أهل الريّ وفدامة أهل نهاوند وغلظ طبع أهل همذان على أن بلدكم هذا أشد البلدان بردا وأكثرها ثلجا وأضيقها طرقا وأوعرها مسلكا وأفقرها أهلا، وكان يقال أبرد البلدان ثلاثة: برذعة وقاليقلا وخوارزم، وهذا قول من لم يدخل بلدكم ولم يشاهد شتاءكم، وقد حدثني أبو جعفر محمد بن إسحاق المكتّب قال: لما قدم عبد الله بن المبارك همذان أوقدت بين يديه نار فكان إذا سخن باطن كفه أصاب ظاهرها البرد وإذا سخن ظاهرها أصاب باطنها البرد، فقال:
أقول لها ونحن على صلاء: ... أما للنار عندك حرّ نار؟
لئن خيّرت في البلدان يوما ... فما همذان عندي بالخيار
ثم التفت إلى ابن أبي سرح وقال: يا أبا عبد الله وهذا والدك يقول:
النار في همذان يبرد حرّها، ... والبرد في همذان داء مسقم
والفقر يكتم في بلاد غيرها، ... والفقر في همذان ما لا يكتم
قد قال كسرى حين أبصر تلّكم: ... همذان لا! انصرفوا فتلك جهنم
والدليل على هذا أن الأكاسرة ما كانت تدخل همذان لأن بناءهم متصل من المدائن إلى أزرميدخت من أسدآباذ ولم يجوزوا عقبة أسدآباذ، وبلغنا أن كسرى أبرويز همّ بدخول همذان فلما بلغ إلى موضع يقال له دوزخ دره، ومعناه بالعربية باب جهنم، قال لبعض وزرائه: ما يسمى هذا المكان؟ فعرّفه، فقال لأصحابه: انصرفوا فلا حاجة بنا إلى دخول مدينة فيها ذكر جهنم، وقد قال وهب بن شاذان الهمذاني شاعركم:
أما آن من همذان الرحيل ... من البلدة الحزنة الجامدة
فما في البلاد ولا أهلها ... من الخير من خصلة واحده
يشيب الشباب ولم يهرموا ... بها من ضبابتها الراكدة
سألتهم: أين أقصى الشتاء ... ومستقبل السنة الواردة؟
فقالوا: إلى جمرة المنتهى، ... فقد سقطت جمرة خامدة
وأيضا قد قال شاعركم:
يوم من الزمهرير مقرور ... على صبيب الضباب مزرور
كأنما حشوه جزائره ... وأرضه وجهها قوارير
يرمي البصير الحديد نظرته ... منها لأجفانه سمادير
وشمسه حرّة مخدّرة ... تسلّبت حين حمّ مقدور
تخال بالوجه من ضبابتها ... إذا حذت جلده زنابير
وقال كاتب بكر:
همذان متلفة النفوس ببردها ... والزمهرير، وحرّها مأمون
غلب الشتاء مصيفها وربيعها، ... فكأنما تموزها كانون
وسأل عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، رجلا: من أين أنت؟ فقال: من همذان، فقال: أما إنها مدينة همّ وأذى تجمد قلوب أهلها كما يجمد ماؤها، وقد قال شاعركم أيضا وهو أحمد بن بشّار يذم بلدكم وشدة برده وغلظ طبع أهله وما تحتاجون إليه من المؤن المجحفة الغليظة لشتائكم، وقيل لأعرابي دخل همذان ثم انصرف إلى البادية: كيف رأيت همذان؟
فقال: أما نهارهم فرقّاص وأما ليلهم فــحمّال، يعني أنهم بالنهار يرقصون لتدفأ أرجلهم وبالليل حمّالــون لكثرة دثارهم، ووقع أعرابيّ إلى همذان في الربيع فاستطاب الزمان وأنس بالأشجار والأنهار، فلما جاء الشتاء ورد عليه ما لم يعهده من البرد والأذى فقال:
بهمذان شقيت أموري ... عند انقضاء الصيف والحرور
جاءت بشرّ شرّ من عقور، ... ورمت الآفاق بالهرير
والثلج مقرون بزمهرير، ... لولا شعار العاقر النزور
أمّ الكبير وأبو الصغير ... لم يدف إنسان من الخصير
ولقد سمعت شيخا من علمائكم وذوي المعرفة منكم أنه يقول: يربح أهل همذان إذا كان يوم في الشتاء صافيا له شمس حارّة مائة ألف درهم، وقيل لابنة الحسن: أيّما أشد الشتاء أم الصيف؟ فقالت: من يجعل الأذى كالزّمّانة! لأن أهل همذان إذا اتفق لهم في الشتاء يوم صاف فيه شمس حارّة يبقى في أكياسهم مائة ألف درهم لأنهم يربحون فيه حطب الوقود وقيمته في همذان ورساتيقها في كل يوم مائة ألف درهم، وقيل لأعرابي: ما غاية البرد عندكم؟ فقال: إذا كانت السماء نقيّة والأرض نديّة والريح شاميّة فلا تسأل عن أهل البريّة، وقد جاء في الخبر أن همذان تخرب لقلة الحطب، ودخل أعرابيّ همذان فلما رأى هواءها وسمع كلام أهلها ذكر بلاده فقال:
وكيف أجيب داعيكم ودوني ... جبال الثلج مشرفة الرّعان
بلاد شكلها من غير شكلي، ... وألسنها مخالفة لساني
وأسماء النساء بها زنان، ... وأقرب بالزّنان من الزواني
فلما بلغ عبد القاهر إلى هذا المكان التفت إليه ابن أبي سرح وقال له: قد أكثرت المقال وأسرفت في الذمّ وأطلت الثّلب وطوّلت الخطبة، ثم صمد للإجابة فلم يأت بطائل أكثر من ذكر المفاخرة بين الصيف والشتاء والحر والبرد، ووصف أن بلادهم كثيرة الزهر والرياحين في الربيع وأنها تنبت الزعفران، وأن عندهم أنواعا من الألوان لا تكون في بلاد غيرهم، وأن مصيف الجبال طيّب فلم أر الإطالة بالإتيان به على وجهه، قالوا: وأقبل عبيد الله بن سليمان بن وهب إلى همذان في سنة 284 بمائة ألف دينار وسبعين ألف دينار بالكفاية على أن لا مؤونة على السلطان، وهي أربعة وعشرون رستاقا: همذان، وفرواز، وقوهياباذ، واناموج، وسيسار، وشراة العليا، وشراة الميانج، والاسفيذجان، وبحر، واباجر، وارغين، والمغارة، واسفيذار، والعلم الأحمر، وارناد، وسمير، وسردروذ، والمهران، وكوردور، وروذه، وساوه، وكان منها بسا وسلفانروذ وخرّقان ثم نقلت إلى قزوين، وهي ستمائة وستون قرية، وعملها من باب الكرج إلى سيسر طولا،
وعرضا من عقبة أسدآباذ إلى ساوه، قالوا: ومن عجائب همذان صورة أسد من حجر على باب المدينة يقال إنه طلسم للبرد من عمل بليناس صاحب الطلسمات حين وجّهه قباذ ليطلسم آفات بلاده، ويقال إن الفارس كان يغرق بفرسه في الثلج بهمذان لكثرة ثلوجها وبردها، فلما عمل لها هذا الطلسم في صورة الأسد قلّ ثلجها وصلح أمرها، وعمل أيضا على يمين الأسد طلسما للحيّات وآخر للعقارب فنقصت وآخر للغرق فأمنوه وآخر للبراغيث فهي قليلة جدّا بهمذان، ولما عمل بليناس هذه الطلسمات بهمذان استهان بها أهلها فاتخذ في جبلهم الذي يقال له أروند طلسما مشرفا على المدينة للجفاء والغلظ فهم أجفى الناس وأغلظهم طبعا، وعمل طلسما آخر للغدر فهم أغدر الناس فلذلك حوّلت الملوك الخزائن عنها خوفا من غدر أهلها، واتخذ طلسما آخر للحروب فليست تخلو من عسكر أو حرب، وقال محمد بن أحمد السلمي المعروف بابن الحاجب يذكر الأسد على باب همذان:
ألا أيها الليث الطويل مقامه ... على نوب الأيام والحدثان
أقمت فما تنوي البراح بحيلة، ... كأنك بوّاب على همذان
أطالب ذحل أنت من عند أهلها؟ ... أبن لي بحقّ واقع ببيان
أراك على الأيام تزداد جدّة، ... كأنك منها آخذ بأمان
أقبلك كان الدهر أم كنت قبله ... فنعلم أم ربّيتما بلبان؟
وهل أنتما ضدّان كلّ تفرّدت ... به نسبة أم أنتما أخوان؟
بقيت فما تفنى وأفنيت عالما ... سطا بهم موت بكل مكان
فلو كنت ذا نطق جلست محدثا، ... وحدثتنا عن أهل كل زمان
ولو كنت ذا روح تطالب مأكلا ... لأفنيت أكلا سائر الحيوان
أجنّبت شر الموت أم أنت منظر ... وإبليس حتى يبعث الثقلان
فلا هرما تخشى ولا الموت تتّقى ... بمضرب سيف أو شباة سنان
وعمّا قريب سوف يلحق ما بقي، ... وجسمك أبقى من حرا وأبان
قال: وكان المكتفي يهمّ بحمل الأسد من باب همذان إلى بغداد وذلك أنه نظر إليه فاستحسنه وكتب إلى عامل البلد يأمره بذلك، فاجتمع وجوه أهل الناحية وقالوا: هذا طلسم لبلدنا من آفات كثيرة ولا يجوز نقله فيهلك البلد، فكتب العامل بذلك وصعّب حمله في تلك العقاب والجبال والمدور، وكان قد أمر بحمل الفيلة لنقله على العجلة، فلما بلغه ذلك فترت نيته عن نقله فبقي مكانه إلى الآن، وقال شاعر أهل همذان وهو أحمد بن بشار يذم همذان وشدة برده وغلظ طبع أهله وما يحتاجون إليه من المؤن المجحفة الغليظة لشتائهم:
قد آن من همذان السير فانطلق، ... وارحل على شعب شمل غير متّفق
بئس اعتياض الفتى أرض الجبال له ... من العراق وباب الرزق لم يضق
أما الملوك فقد أودت سراتهم ... والغابرون بها في شيمة السّوق
ولا مقام على عيش ترنّقه ... أيدي الخطوب، وشرّ العيش ذو الرّنق
قد كنت أذكر شيئا من محاسنها ... أيّام لي فنن كاس من الورق
أرض يعذّب أهلوها ثمانية ... من الشهور كما عذّبت بالرّهق
تبقى حياتك ما تبقى بنافعة ... إلّا كما انتفع المجروض بالدمق
فإن رضيت بثلث العمر فارض به ... على شرائط من يقنع بما يمق
إذا ذوى البقل هاجت في بلادهم ... من جربيائهم نشّافة العرق
تبشّر الناس بالبلوى وتنذرهم ... ما لا يداوى بلبس الدّرع والدّرق
تلفّهم في عجاج لا تقوم لها ... قوائم الفيل فيل الماقط الشّبق
لا يملك المرء فيها كور عمّته ... حتى تطيّرها من فرط مخترق
فإن تكلم لاقته بمسكنة ... ملء الخياشيم والأفواه والحدق
فعندها ذهبت ألوانهم جزعا، ... واستقبلوا الجمع واستولوا على العلق
حتى تفاجئهم شهباء معضلة ... تستوعب الناس في سربالها اليقق
خطب بها غير هين من خطوبهم ... كالخنق ما منه من ملجا لمختنق
أمّا الغنيّ فمحصور يكابدها ... طول الشتاء مع اليربوع في نفق
يقول أطبق وأسبل يا غلام وأر ... خ السّتر واعجل بردّ الباب واندفق
وأوقدوا بتنانير تذكرهم ... نار الجحيم بها من يصل يحترق
والمملقون بها سبحان ربهم ... ماذا يقاسون طول الليل من أرق!
صبغ الشتاء، إذا حلّ الشتاء بها، ... صبغ المآتم للحسّانة الفنق
والذئب ليس إذا أمسى بمحتشم ... من أن يخالط أهل الدار والنّسق
فويل من كان في حيطانه قصر ... ولم يخصّ رتاج الباب بالغلق
وصاحب النسك ما تهدا فرائصه، ... والمستغيث بشرب الخمر في عرق
أمّا الصلاة فودّعها سوى طلل ... أقوى وأقفر من سلمى بذي العمق
تمسي وتصبح كالشيطان في قرن ... مستمسكا من حبال الله بالرّمق
والماء كالثلج، والأنهار جامدة، ... والأرض أضراسها تلقاك بالدّبق
حتى كأنّ قرون الغفر ناتئة ... تحت المواطئ والأقدام في الطرق
فكلّ غاد بها أو رائح عجل ... يمشي إلى أهلها غضبان ذا حنق
قوم غذاؤهم الألبان مذ خلقوا، ... فما لهم غيرها من مطعم أنق
لا يعبق الطيب في أصداغ نسوتهم، ... ولا جلودهم تبتلّ من عرق
فهم غلاظ جفاة في طباعهم ... إلّا تعلّة منسوب إلى الحمق
أفنيت عمري بها حولين من قدر ... لم أقو منها على دفع ولم أطق
قلت: وهذه القصيدة ليست من الشعر المختار وإنما كتبت للحكاية عن شرح حال همذان، وللشعراء أشعار كثيرة في برد همذان ووصف أروند، فأما أروند فقد ذكر في موضعه، وأما الأشعار التي قيلت في بردها ففي ما ذكرنا كفاية، وقال البديع الهمذاني فيها:
همذان لي بلد أقول بفضله، ... لكنه من أقبح البلدان
صبيانه في القبح مثل شيوخه، ... وشيوخه في العقل كالصبيان
وقال شيرويه: قال الأستاذ أبو العلاء محمد بن عليّ بن الحسن بن حستون الهمذاني الوزير من قصيدة:
يا أيها الملك الذي وصل العلا ... بالجود والإنعام والإحسان
قد خفت من سفر أطلّ عليّ في ... كانون في رمضان من همذان
بلد إليه أنتمي بمناسبي، ... لكنه من أقذر البلدان
صبيانه في القبح مثل شيوخه، ... وشيوخه في العقل كالصبيان
وقال شيرويه أيضا: إن سليمان بن داود، عليه السلام، اجتاز بموضع همذان فقال: ما بال هذا الموضع مع عظم مسيل مائه وسعة ساحته لا تبنى فيه مدينة! فقالوا: يا نبيّ الله لا يثبت أحد فيه لأن البرد ينصبّ فيه صبّا ويسقط الثلج قامة الرمح، فقال، عليه السّلام، لصخر الجني: هل من حيلة؟
قال: نعم، فاتخذ سبعا من حجر منقور ونصب طلسما للبرد وبنى المدينة، وقيل: أول من أسسها دارا الأكبر، قال كعب الأحبار: متى أراد الله أن يخرّب هذه المدينة سقط ذلك الطلسم فتخرب بإذن الله، قال شيرويه: والسبع هو الأسد المنحوت من الحجر الخورزني، وخورزن: جبل بباب همذان الموضوع على الكثيب الذي على ذنب الأسد، وهذا الأسد من عجائب همذان منحوت من صخرة واحدة وجوارحه غير منفصلة عن قوائمه كأنه ليث غابة ولم يزل في هذا الموضع منذ زمن سليمان، عليه السّلام، وقيل: من زمان قباذ الأكبر لأنه أمر بليناس الحكيم بعمله إلى سنة 319 فإن مرداويج دخل المدينة ونهب أهلها وسباهم فقيل له إن هذا السبع طلسم لهذه المدينة من الآفات وفيه منافع لأهله، فأراد حمله إلى الرّيّ فلم يقدر فكسرت يداه بالفطّيس.

حق

1 حَقَّ, aor. ـِ (S, Msb, K, &c.) and حَقُّ, (IDrd, Msb, K,) [the latter irregular,] inf. n. حَقَّةٌ (K, TA) and حَقٌّ (IDrd, TA) and حُقُوقٌ, (TA,) i. q. صَارَ حَقًّا [i. e., accord. to the primary meaning of حَقٌّ, as explained below, on the authority of Er-Rághib, It was, or became, suitable to the requirements of wisdom, justice, right or rightness, truth, or reality or fact; or to the exigencies of the case]: (TA:) it was, or became, just, proper, right, correct, or true; authentic, genuine, sound, valid, substantial, or real; established, or confirmed, as a truth or fact: and necessitated, necessary, requisite, or unavoidable; binding, obligatory, incumbent, or due: syn. وَجَبَ; (T, S, Msb, K, &c.;) and ثَبَتَ: (Msb, TA:) it was, or became, a manifest and an indubitable fact or event; as explained by IDrd in the JM; (TA;) it happened, betided, or befell, surely, without doubt or uncertainty. (K.) It is said in the Kur xxxvi. 6, لَقَدْ حَقَّ القَوْلُ عَلَى أَكْثَرِهِمْ, i. e. The saying, “ I will assuredly fill Hell with genii and men together,” [Kur xi. 120 and xxxii. 13,] (Bd,) or the sentence of punishment, (Jel,) hath become necessitated [as suitable to the requirements of justice, or as being just or right,] to take effect upon the greater number of them; syn. وَجَبَ, (Jel, TA,) and ثَبَتَ. (TA.) And this, namely, ثَبَتَ, is the meaning of the verb in the phrase, حَقَّ عَلَيْكَ القَضَآءُ [The sentence was, or, emphatically, is, necessitated as suitable to the requirements of justice to take effect upon thee; or it was, or is, necessary, just, or right, that the sentence should take effect upon thee]. (TA.) [In like manner,] one says, يَحِقُّ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا It is necessary for thee [as suitable to the requirements of wisdom or justice or the like], or incumbent on thee, or just or proper or right for thee, that thou shouldst do such a thing. (TA.) [Thus one says,] الحَقِيقَةُ مَا يَحِقُّ عَلَيْكَ

أَنْ تَحْمِيَهُ [The حقيقة is that which it is necessary for thee &c., or that which it behooveth thee, that thou shouldst defend it, or protect it]. (S, * K.) Accord. to Sh, the Arabs said, حَقَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ

أَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ and حُقَّ: but accord. to Fr, when you say حَقَّ, you say عَلَيْكَ; and when you say حُقَّ, you say لَكَ. (TA.) [Accordingly] one says, حُقَّ لَكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ ذَا and حُقِقْتَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَهُ: both mean the same: (Ks, S, K:) [i. e., each has one, or the other, or both, of the meanings next following:] or the former means It was, or, emphatically, is, rendered حّقّ [or suitable to the requirements of wisdom or justice &c.] for thee, or necessary for thee, or incumbent on thee, or just or proper or right for thee, [or it behooved or behooves thee,] that thou shouldst do, or to do, this, or that: and [the latter, or] حُقِقْتَ بِأَنْ تَفْعَلَ, Thou wast, or, emphatically, art, rendered حَقِيق [or adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, proper, competent, or worthy,] that thou shouldst do, or to do, this, or that]: (A, TA:) and in like manner, حُقَّتْ signifies in the Kur lxxxiv. 2 and 5: (Bd, Jel: *) or حُقِقْتَ بِأَنْ تَفْعَلَ may mean thou wast, or art, known by the testimony of thy circumstances to be حَقِيق

&c. (A, TA.) And مَا كَانَ يَحُقُّكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَهُ [virtually] means the same as مَا حُقَّ لَكَ [best rendered in this case It did not behoove thee to do it]. (TA.) One says also, حَقَّ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ [It was, or, emphatically, is, necessary &c. that thou shouldst do or to do such a thing]: but they did not say, حَقَقْتَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ. (Fr, TA.) b2: But حَقَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا means Thy doing so distressed, or hath distressed, or afflicted, me; or, emphatically, distresses, or afflicts, me; like عَزَّ عَلَىَّ. (S and K and TA in art. عز.) And in like manner, حَقَّ أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ [or حَقَّ مَا أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ] means عَزَّ مَا أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ [It is distressing to me that thou art going away]. (TA in art. عز.) And لَحَقَّ مَا is used in the same manner as لَعَزَّ مَا, q. v. (A and TA in art. عز.) You say also, حَقَّتِ الحَاجَةُ Want befell, or betided, or happened, and was severe, or distressing: (Msb, TA:) [which is said to be] from the phrase, حَقَّتِ القِيَامَةُ, aor. ـُ The resurrection included, or shall include, within its sphere [all] the created beings. (Msb.) A2: حَقَّتْ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. حِقَّةٌ (S, * Msb, K,) and حِقٌّ, (K,) or, accord. to ISd, it should rather be حَقَاقَةٌ and حُقُوقَةٌ, because حِقَّةٌ is used as an epithet, [as will be seen below,] and the inf. n. in a case like this, by rule, should differ from the epithet, (TA,) She (a camel) became a حِقّ, or حِقَّة; i. e., entered the fourth year: (K:) and ↓ أَحَقَّ, inf. n. إِحْقَاقٌ, he (a camel) became a حِقّ: because, so they say, he is then fit to be laden: (Msb:) and ↓ احقّت she (a young camel) completed three years; (Aboo-Málik, K;) became a حِقَّة; (Ibn-'Abbád, K;) like حَقَّتْ.

(KL.) And أَنَا

أَحَقُّ لَكُمْ هٰذَا الخَبَرَ I will know, or ascertain, the truth, or real nature, of this piece of news or information, for you. (TA.) And أَظُنُّهُ وَ لَا

أَحُقُّهُ [I think it, but I do not know the truth of it, or am not certain of it]. (T in art. إِيَّا; &c.) And حَقَقْتُ العُقْدَةَ, [written in the TA without any syll. signs, so that it may be either thus or ↓ حَقَّقْتُهُ; but it is most probably the former, as the quasi-pass. is not تحقّقت, but انحقّت: it signifies lit.

فِيهِ أَحَدٌ [He disputed, &c., with me, and no one had disputed, &c., with me respecting it]. (TA.)

(Msb.) A2: See also حَقَّ, as an intrans. verb, in three places; relating to camels. b2: احقّ القَوْمُ The people's cattle became fat. (TA.) And احقّ القَوْمُ مِنَ الرَّبِيعِ The people's cattle became fat by means of the [herbage called] ربيع. (AHn, * ISd, TA.) A3: As a trans. verb: see حَقَّهُ, in nine places. You say also, أَحْقَقْتُ الأَمْرَ, inf. n. as above, (tropical:) I did, performed, or executed, the affair in a firm, solid, sound, or good, manner; or put it into a firm, solid, sound, or good, state.

(S, K. *) A2: تحقّقهُ: see حَقَّهُ.6 تَحَاقٌّ is syn. with تَخَاصُمٌ; and ↓ اِحْتِقَاقٌ, with اِخْتِصَامٌ; [The disputing, litigating, or contending, together;] (S, K;) [for] تَخَاصَمُوا and اِخْتَصَمُوا signify the same; (K in art. خصم;) [or rather] the meaning of [تحاقّ and] ↓ احتقاق is [the disputing, &c., together for a right, or due;] each one's, or every one's, saying, “The right is mine,” and “ with me; ” or demanding his right, or due. (TA.) One says, تَحَاقٌّوا [They disputed, &c., together for a right, or due]. (TK.) And ↓ اِحْتَقَّا They two disputed, &c., (K, TA,) each of them demanding his right, or due. (TA.) And فُلَانٌ وَ فُلَانٌ ↓ احتقّ [Such a one and such a one disputed, &c., together for a right, or due]. (S.) One does not say of a single person [تحاقّ nor] ↓ احتقّ; like as one does not say of one only [تخاصم nor] اختصم. (S.) 7 اِنْحَقَّتِ العُقْدَةُ (tropical:) The knot became tied, or made fast, or tightened. (Ibn-' Abbád, K, TA.) 8 إِحْتَقَ3َ see 6, throughout.

A2: اِحْتَقَّتْ بِهِ الطَّعْنَةُ (assumed tropical:) The thrust, or piercing, killed him: (AA, K:) or (tropical:) went right, or directly, into him: (As, TA:) or (assumed tropical:) penetrated into his belly, or inside: (L, TA:) or hit, or struck, the socket, or turning-place, of his hip, which is termed its حُقّ.

A4: احتقّ الفَرَسُ The horse became lean, or light of flesh; or slender, and lean; or lean, and lank in the belly. (S, K, TA.) b2: and احتقّ المَالُ The cattle became fat: (K: [see also the last meaning of 1 as an intrans. verb:]) but in the A and O and L, احتقّ القَوْمُ the people's cattle became fat, and their fatness ended, or attained the extreme point. (TA.) 10 استحقّهُ He demanded it as his right, or due. (TA.) [And hence,] He had a right, or just title or claim, to it; he was, or became, entitled to it; he deserved it, or merited it; syn. اِسْتَوْجَبَهُ: (S, Msb, K:) or these two verbs are nearly the same; (TA;) [the former meaning he was, or became, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, for it; which is the most proper meaning of the phrase صَارَ حَقِيقًا بِهِ, as well as of the verb استحقّ; but this verb has also the former of these two meanings.] When a man purchases a house, and another lays claim to it, and establishes a just evidence of his claim, and the judge decides for him according to his evidence, one says of him, قَدِ اسْتَحَقَّهَا عَلَى المُشْتَرِى [He has a right to it in preference to the purchaser]; meaning that he is to possess it in preference to the purchaser. (TA.) And of a camel such as is termed حِقّ one says, استحقّ أَنْ يُرْكَبَ [He was, or has become, fit to be ridden], (K,) and أَنْ يُحْمَلَ عَلَيْهِ [to be laden]: (S, Msb:) and استحقّ الضِّرَابَ [He was, or has become, fit for covering]. (L, K.) b2: [Hence, It (an action, and anything,) deserved it, merited it, or required it.] And استحقّ إِثْمًا He did what necessitated sin; (Ksh and Bd and Jel in v. 106;) [was guilty of a sin;] and deserved its being said of him that he was a sinner; (Ksh ibid.;) i. q. اِسْتَوْجَبَهُ. (TA.) And استحقّوا They committed sins for which he who should punish them would be excusable, because they deserved punishment; like أَوْجَبُوا, and أَعْذَرُوا, and اِسْتَلَاطُوا. (IAar, TA in art. لوط.) b3: استحقّت

إِبِلُنَا رَبِيعًا: see 4, last sentence. b4: استحقّت النَّاقَةُ لَقَاحًا The she-camel conceived, or became pregnant; and استحقّ لَقَاحُهَا [signifies the same]. (TA.) b5: See also 1, as an intrans. verb, last two sentences. R. Q. 1 حَقْحَقَ, inf. n. حَقْحَقَةٌ, He went the pace, or in the manner, termed حَقْحَقَةٌ; (TA;) which means a pace, or manner of going, in which the beast is made to exert himself to the very utmost, and which is the most fatiguing to the ظَهْر [meaning the camel that is ridden, or the beast that carries one]: (S, Mgh, K:) or a journeying in the beginning, or first part, of the night; (Lth, S, K;) which is forbidden: (Lth, S, TA:) or, as some say, the fatiguing a while, and abstaining a while: (Lth, TA:) but Az says that Lth is not correct in either of his explanations of this word: (TA:) or an obstinate persisting in journeying: or an obstinate persisting in journeying until the camel that one is riding perishes or breaks down: (K:) or, accord. to Az, the correct meaning, confirmed by what the Arabs said, is the making the camel to go on, and urging him to that which fatigues him, and that which is beyond his power, until he breaks down with his rider: or, accord. to IAar, the jading of the weak [beast] by hard journeying. (TA.) It is related in a trad., that Mutarrif Ibn-Esh-Shikhkheer said to his son, when he took extraordinary pains in religious exercises, (S, TA,) and was immoderate therein, (TA,) خَيْرُ الأُمُورِ أَوْسَاطُهَا وَ الحَسَنَةُ بَيْنَ الشَّيْئَيْنِ وَ شَرُّ السَّيْرِ [The best of affairs, or actions, or cases, are such of them as are between two extremes; and the good action is between the two things; and the worst kind of journeying is that in which the beast is made to exert himself to the very utmost, &c.]: (S, TA:) meaning, pursue thou the middle course in religious exercises, and burden not thyself, lest thou become disgusted; for the best of works is that which is continued, though it be small. (TA.) حَقٌّ contr. of بَاطِلٌ [used as a subst. and as an epithet or act. part. n.]: (S, Msb, K:) or, as an inf. n. [and used as a simple subst.], contr. of بُطْلَانٌ; and as an act. part. n., and a simple epithet, contr. of بَاطِلٌ. (Kull.) [As a subst.,] its primary signification is Suitableness to the requirements of wisdom, justice, right, or rightness, truth, reality, or fact; or to the exigencies of the case; as the suitableness of the foot of a door in respect of its socket, for turning round rightly: (Er-Rághib, TA:) [and particularly] the suitableness of a judgment, and of what involves, or implies, a judgment, [i. e., of a saying, and a religion, and a persuasion, or the like, (as will be shown by one of the explanations of its meanings as an epithet,)] to reality or fact; and the suitableness of reality or fact to a judgment: (Kull:) [the state, or quality, or property, of being just, proper, right, correct, or true; justness, propriety, rightness, correctness, or truth; reality, or fact; the state, &c., of being established, or confirmed, as a truth or fact; of being necessary, requisite, or unavoidable; of being binding, obligatory, incumbent, or due: (as shown above: see 1, first sentence:)] and existence in relation to substances, absolutely: and everlasting existence [in relation to God]: (Kull:) pl. حُقُوقٌ and حِقَاقٌ: it has no pl. of pauc. (TA.) As an act. part. n. and a simple epithet, it is applied to a judgment [as meaning] suitable to reality or fact; and to a saying, and a religion, and a persuasion, considered as involving, or implying, such a judgment: (Kull:) to that which is suitable to the requirements of wisdom, justice, right, or rightness; as when one says that every act of God is حَقّ: to a belief, in a thing, suitable to the reality of the case; as when one says that belief in the resurrection is حَقّ: and to an action, and a saying, accordant to what is requisite or obligatory, in quality and measure and time; as when one says that the action of another is حَقّ, and that his saying is حَقّ: (Er-Rághib, TA:) [thus it signifies just, proper, right, correct, or true; authentic, genuine, sound, valid, substantial, or real; established, or confirmed, as a truth or fact: and necessary, requisite, or unavoidable: and binding, obligatory, incumbent, or due:] also the necessarily-existing by his own essence [applied to God; as an epithet of Whom it has other meanings assigned to it by some, as will be seen below]: and anything existing, of an objective kind: (Kull:) existing as an established fact, or truth, (K, TA,) so as to be undeniable. (TA.) In the saying, هٰذَا عَبْدُ اللّٰهِ الحَقَّ لَا البَاطِلَ [This is 'Abd-Allah, truly; not falsely], the article ال is prefixed as it is in the phrase, أَرْسَلَهَا العِرَاكَ; but sometimes it is dropped, so that one says حَقًّا لَا بَاطِلًا. (Sb, TA.) And in the phrase, لَحَقُّ لَا آتِيكَ, a form of oath, the nom. case is used without tenween; but when the ل is dropped, one says, حَقًّا لَا آتِيكَ: (S, TA:) [the latter means Truly I will not come to thee: the former seems to be best explained by what here follows:] accord. to the A, لَحَقُّ لَا أَفْعَلُ is originally لَحَقُّ اللّٰهِ لَا أَفْعَلُ [The truth, or existence, of God is that by which I swear, I will not do such a thing]; the affixed noun [اللّٰه] being suppressed, and meant to be understood. (TA.) الحَقُّ بِيَدِى [The right is mine] and الحَقُّ مَعِى

[The right is with me and الحَقُّ عَلَيْكَ The right is against thee, which last is often used as meaning thou art in fault, or in the wrong,] are said by one disputing, or contending, for a thing. (TA.) [And in like manner one says الحَقُّ بِيَدِكَ and مَعَكَ as meaning Thou art in the right, and الحَقُّ عَلَىَّ as meaning I am in the wrong.] One says also, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عِنْدَ حَقِّ لَقَاحِهَا, and لَقَاحِهَا ↓ حِقِّ (tropical:) That was on the occasion of the establishment of the fact of her conception, or pregnancy. (S, A, K, * TA.) And هٰذَا العَالِمُ حَقَّ العَالِمِ, [like هٰذَا العَالِمُ جِدَّ العَالِمِ,] This is the learned man, the extremely learned man. (Sb, TA.) And حَقُّ عَلِيمٍ meansVery [or extremely] knowing. (Ham p. 139.) [Respecting the expressions الحَقُّ اليَقِينُ and حَقُّ اليَقِينِ, see art. يقن.] b2: [From the primary and general signification, explained in the first sentence of this paragraph, are deduced several particular meanings here following.] b3: Equity, or justice. (K.) b4: [The right mode, or manner, of acting or being.] b5: Veracity (K) in discourse. (TA.) b6: Prudence. (K, TA.) b7: [A right, or due, of any kind: a just claim: a desert, or thing deserved: anything that is owed; as a fee, hire, or pay, and a price: a duty; an obligation:] the sing. of حُقُوقٌ. (S, K.) [You say, هٰذَا حَقِّى

This is my right, or due, &c. And هٰذَا حَقٌّ لِى

This is a right, or due, belonging to me; or a thing due, or owed, to me: or this is a duty to me. And هٰذَا حَقٌّ عَلَىَّ This is a right, or due, the rendering of which is binding, obligatory, or incumbent, on me: or this is my duty. and hence, حَقُّ الطَّرِيقِ The duty that relates to the road: see art. طرق.] ↓ حَقَّةٌ is a more particular, or peculiar, or special, term. (S, K.) You say, ↓ هٰذِهِ حَقَّتِى [This is my particular, or peculiar, or special, right or due &c.: but it is explained as] meaning حَقِّى. (S.) And ↓ هٰذِهِ حِقَّتِى This is my just, or necessary, or incumbent, right or due &c. (K.) b8: A share, or portion; as in the saying, أَعْطِ كُلَّ ذِى حَقٍّ حَقَّهُ Give thou to every one to whom belongs a share, or portion, his share, or portion, that is appointed, or assigned, to him. (TA.) b9: Property: a possession. (K.) b10: [An appertenance. Hence the pl.] حُقُوقٌ signifies The مَرَافِق [or appertenances, or conveniences, such as the privy and the kitchen and the like,] of a house. (Msb, TA.) b11: [A necessary, or requisite, thing.]

b12: A thing, or an event, that is decreed, or destined. (K, TA.) It is said to have this meaning in the Kur [xv. 8], in the words, مَا نُنَزِّلُ المَلَائِكَةَ

إِلَّا بِالحَقِّ [We send not down the angels save with that which is decreed, or destined]: (TA:) or, as some say, it means here revelation: (Ksh, Bd:) or punishment. (Ksh, Bd, Jel.) b13: [And hence,] Death. (K.) So accord. to some in the Kur [1. 18], where it is said, وَ جَآءَتْ سَكْرَةُ المَوْتِ بِالحَقِّ [And the confusion of the intellect by reason of the agony of death shall come with death: but other and obvious meanings are assigned to it in this instance]. (TA.) b14: [As an epithet,] الحَقُّ is one of the names of God: or one of the epithets applied to Him: (K:) meaning the Really-existing; whose existence and divinity are proved to be true: (IAth, TA:) or the Creator according to the requirements of wisdom, justice, right, or rightness. (Er-Rághib, TA.) b15: It is also applied to The Kur-án. (K.) b16: And to [The religion of] El-Islám. (K.) A2: See also حَقِيقٌ, in two places.

A3: And see حَاقٌّ, in two places.

حُقٌّ: see حُقَّةٌ. b2: Also The breast, or mamma, of an old woman. (TA.) b3: A tuber of a truffle. (TA.) b4: The small hollow upon the head of the shoulder-blade: (K:) or, as some say, the حُقّ of the shoulder-blade is the head of the upper arm, in which is the وَابِلَة: (TA:) or this latter is another signification of حُقّ. (K.) b5: The head, (K,) or lower part of the head, (TA,) of the hip, in which is the thigh-bone; (K, TA;) the socket, or turning-place, of the hip.

(TA.) b3: And [the pl.] حِقَاقٌ is applied to The young ones of trees: (TA:) and particularly of the [species of mimosa termed]

You say, أَتَتِ النَّاقَةُ عَلَى حِقِّهَا (tropical:) The she-camel arrived at the time of year in which she had been covered in the preceding year: (S, TA:) and ↓ اتت على حِقَّتِهَا signifies the same; or she completed her period of gestation, and overpassed by some days the time of year in which she had been covered in the preceding year, to complete the formation of the fœtus. (TA.) And جَازَتِ الحِقَّ She (a camel) overpassed the year without bringing forth. (As, S.) [See also the last sentence but one in the explanations of 1 as an intrans. verb.] b2: كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عِنْدَ حِقِّ لَقَاحِهَا: see حَقٌّ حَقَّةٌ: see حَقٌّ, in two places: b2: and حَقِيقَةٌ, also in two places: b3: and حَاقَّةٌ.

حُقَّةٌ A receptacle of wood, (K, TA,) or of ivory, or of some other material proper to be cut, or shaped out; (TA;) a receptacle for perfume; (Har p. 518;) [generally a small round box, used for unguents and perfumes &c.; and applied also to a small cocoa-nut used as a box for snuff &c.;] a thing well known: (S:) [also a receptacle for wine: (see تَأْمُورٌ, in art. امر:)] pl. ↓ حُقٌّ, [or rather this is a coll. gen. n., as is indicated in the TA, and it is now used as a sing., like حُقَّةٌ,] and حُقَقٌ, (S, K,) which latter is pl. of حُقَّةٌ, (ISd, TA,) and حِقَاقٌ (S, K) and حُقُوقٌ and [of pauc.] أَحْقَاقٌ, (K,) which three are pls. of حُقٌّ. (TA.) b2: And (tropical:) A woman; (K, TA;) as being likened thereto. (TA.) A2: See also حَاقَّةٌ.

(TA.) b2: And Persons establishing a claim or claims. (TA.) حَقِيقٌ Adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, proper, competent, or worthy; syn. خَلِيقٌ, (Sh, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and جَدِيرٌ; (K;) as also ↓ حَقٌّ, (Ibn- 'Abbád, K,) and [some say] ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ: (Sh, S, Mgh, K:) حَقِيقٌ is said to be of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ; but accord. to the A, it is not so, because its fem. is with ة; but is from the supposed verb حَقُقَ, and is like خَلِيقٌ from خَلُقَ, and جَدِيرٌ from جَدُرَ: and ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ signifies [properly] rendered adapted &c.: (TA:) the pl. of حقيق is أَحِقَّآءُ; and that of ↓ محقوق is مَحْقُوقُونَ. (S.) You say, هُوَ حَقِيقٌ بِهِ (Sh, S, Msb, K) and به ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ (Sh, S, K) and به ↓ حَقٌّ (Ibn-'Abbád, K) [He is adapted, &c., for it; or worthy of it]. And to a woman, أَنْتَ حَقِيقَةٌ بِكَذَا (A, TA) and حَقِيقَةٌ لِذٰلِكَ and لِذٰلِكَ ↓ مَحْقُوقَةٌ [Thou art adapted, &c., for such a thing and for that thing; or worthy of it]. (TA.) And أَنْتَ حَقِيقٌ بِأَنْ تَفْعَلَ (A, Mgh) and ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ (A) [Thou art adapted, &c., for thy doing such a thing; or worthy of doing it]. And هُوَ حَقِيقٌ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ كَذَا [He is adapted, &c., for his doing such a thing; or worthy to do it]; (S;) in which case, ان is for بِأَنْ. (Mgh.) [And حَقِيقٌ بِكَذَا also signifies Having a right, or just title or claim, to such a thing; entitled to such a thing.] It is said in the Kur [vii. 103], حَقِيقٌ عَلَى أَنْ لَا أَقْولَ عَلَى

اللّٰهِ إِلَّا الحَقَّ, meaning I am disposed [not] to say [of God aught save] the truth: or, as some say, I am vehemently desirous [that I should not say &c.]; for, accord. to Aboo-'Alee, أَنَا حَقِيقٌ عَلَى

كَذَا means I am vehemently desirous of such a thing: but one reading, that of Náfi', is حَقِيقٌ عَلَىَّ أَنْ لَا أَقُولَ, It is binding, or obligatory, or incumbent, on me [that I should not say]. (TA.) حَقِيقَةٌ The essence of a thing as meaning that by being which a thing is what it is; [or that in being which a thing consists;] as when we say that a rational animal is the حقيقة of a human being: (KT:) or that by being which a thing is what it is, considered with regard to its reality, is termed حَقِيقَةٌ: considered with regard to its individuality, هُوِيَّةٌ: and without regard thereto, مَاهِيَّةٌ: (KT, TA:) the ultimate and radical constituent of a thing. (Msb, TA.) b2: [Also The essence of a thing as meaning the property or quality, or the aggregate of properties or qualities, whereby a thing is what it is; the essential property or quality, or the aggregate of the essential properties or qualities, of a thing; that which constitutes the particular and distinguishing nature of a thing or of a genus or species; i. q. ذَاتِيَّةٌ: and] the truth, reality, or true or real nature or state [or circumstances or facts, the very nature, and the gist, and the pith, marrow, or most essential part], of a case, or an affair: pl. حَقَائِقُ: see 3. (TA.) One says, بَلَغَ حَقِيقَةَ الأَمْرِ He arrived at [the knowledge of] the truth, reality, or true or real nature or state [&c.], of the case, or affair. (TA.) and ↓ الحَقَّةُ signifies حَقِيقَةُ الأَمْرِ; (S, K;) as also ↓ الحَاقَّةُ. (TA.) Hence the saying, لَمَّا عَرَفَ مِنِّى هَرَبَ ↓ الحَقَّةَ [When he knew the truth, reality, or true or real nature or state &c., of the case, or affair, from me, he fled]. (S, TA.) And مِنِّى هَرَبَ ↓ لَمَّا رَأَى الحَاقَّةَ [When he saw the truth, &c.]. (TA.) [حَقِيقَةً is often used as meaning In truth, or truly; in reality, or really; and in fact.] You say also, عَرَفْتُهُ حَقِيقَةَ المَعْرِفَةِ [I knew it with reality of knowledge]. (Msb in art. كنه.) And حَقِيقَةُ الإِيمَانِ means Genuine belief or faith; reality of belief or faith. (TA.) [And you say, هٰذَا شَىْءٌ لَا حَقِيقَةَ لَهُ This is a thing having no reality.]

A2: [Also A word, or phrase, used in its proper or original, or in a proper or an original, sense;] that which is constantly used according to its original application; or a name for that whereby is meant what it was [originally] applied to denote; (TA;) contr. of مَجَازٌ: (S, K:) of the measure فَعِيلَةٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلَةٌ, from حَقَّ الشَّىْءُ signifying ثَبَتَ: the ة is affixed for the conversion of the word from an epithet to a subst.: (TA:) [pl. as above]. [It is also called حَقِيقَةٌ لُغَوِيَّةٌ, and حَقِيقَةٌ لُغَةً; to distinguish it from what is termed حَقِيقَةٌ عُرْفِيَّةٌ, and حَقِيقَةٌ عُرْفًا, which is A word, or phrase, so much used in a particular tropical sense as to be, in that sense, conventionally regarded as proper; as, for instance, عَدْلٌ in the sense of “ just; ” it being properly an inf. n.] A مَجَاز, when much used, becomes what is termed حَقِيقَةٌ عُرْفًا. (Mz 24th نوع.) [حَقِيقَةٌ means also A proper (opposed to a tropical) signification.]

A3: الحَقِيقَةُ also signifies (tropical:) That which, or those whom, it is necessary for one, or it behooveth one, to defend, or protect, (S, L, K, TA,) of the people of one's house, (L,) or such as the wife, and the female neighbour, and property, &c.: (Ham p. 181:) pl. as above. (L.) You say, فُلَانٌ حَامِى الحَقِيقَةِ (tropical:) [Such a one is the defender, or protector, of that which, or those whom, it is necessary, &c., to defend, or protect]. (S, TA.) [See also ذِمَارٌ. And see an ex. of this signification, or of the next, in a verse cited in p. 288.] b2: Also (assumed tropical:) The banner, or standard: (S, K, and Ham ubi suprà:) this being included in the preceding meaning. (Ham.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) That which is sacred, or inviolable; that which one is under an obligation to respect, or honour. (TA.) حَقِيقَىٌّ rel. n. of حَقِيقَةٌ, Essential, &c.]

حَقَّانِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, الحَقّ as meaning justness, propriety, rightness, correctness, or truth; &c.: and hence just, proper, &c.; like حَقٌّ when used as an epithet: and of, or relating to, الحَقّ as meaning God:] a rel. n. from الحَقُّ, like رَبَّانِىٌّ from الرَّبُّ. (TA.) قَرَبٌ حَقْحَاقٌ [A night-journey to water] made with labour or exertion or haste; (K;) as also هَقْهَاقٌ and قَهْقَاهٌ; and so ↓ مُحَقْحِقٌ. (TA.) [See R. Q. 1.]

حَاقٌّ i. q. صَادِقٌ [as used in the phrase صَادِقُ الحَلَاوَةِ and صَادِقُ الحَمْلَةِ, &c.: see art. صدق]: so in the phrase حَاقٌّ الجُوعِ [Vehement hunger]: (K:) occurring in a trad. of Aboo-Bekr: but accord. to one reading, it is حَاقُ الجُوعِ, without teshdeed to the ق, from حَاقَ بِهِ البَلَآءُ, inf. n. حَيْقٌ and حَاقٌ, “trial, or trouble, beset him; ” and means the besetting of hunger: or it may mean حَائِقُ الجُوعِ [besetting hunger]. (TA.) One says also, رَجُلٌ حَاقُّ الرَّجُلِ and الرَّجُلِ ↓ حَاقَّةُ A man perfect in manliness: and حَاقُّ الشُّجَاعِ and ↓ حَاقَّةُ الشُّجَاعِ perfect in courage. (K, * TA.) And Az relates that he heard an Arab of the desert say, of a mark of mange, or scab, that appeared upon a camel, هٰذَا حَاقُّ صُمَادِحِ الجَرَبِ [This is a most sure, or a truth-telling, evidence of genuine mange, or scab]. (TA.) A2: Also The middle of the head; (S, K;) as also ↓ حَقٌّ: (K:) and of the back of the neck; as also ↓ حُقٌّ: (TA: [thus the latter is there written, in this instance, with damm:]) and of the eye: (TA:) and of a road: (K, * TA:) and of winter. (S.) One says, سَقَطَ عَلَى حَاقِّ رَأْسِهِ (S, K) and رأسه ↓ حَقِّ (K) He fell upon the middle of his head: (S, K:) and على حَاقِّ القَفَا and القفا ↓ حُقِّ upon the middle of the back of the neck. (TA.) And أَصَابَ حَاقَّ عَيْنِهِ He, or it, hit the middle of his eye. (TA.) And رَكِبَ حَاقَّ الطَّرِيقِ He went upon the middle of the road. (K, * TA.) And جِئْتُهُ فِى حَاقِّ الشِّتَآءِ I came to him in the middle of winter. (S.) And لَقِيتُهُ مِنْ حَاقِّ المَسْجِدِ: see حُقٌّ. b2: هُوَ فِى حَاقٍّ مِنْ كَذَا He is in straitness by reason of such a thing. (TA.) حَاقَّةٌ: see حَقِيقَةٌ, in two places. [In the sense in which it is there explained, its pl. is حَوَاقُّ; and so in other senses; agreeably with analogy: see the second of the sentences here following.]

b2: Also A severe calamity or affliction, the happening of which is fixed, or established; and so ↓ حَقَّةٌ; (K;) which signifies also, [according to another explanation,] like ↓ حُقَّةٌ, [simply,] a calamity; or a great, formidable, terrible, or momentous, thing, or event: (Az, K:) and حَاجَةٌ حَاقَّةٌ a want that befalls, or happens, and is severe, or distressing. (Msb.) b3: And الحَاقَّةُ [in the Kur lxix. 1 and 2] means The resurrection: (S, Msb, K:) because in it shall be [manifest] the true natures (حَوَاقّ) of things, or actions; or because in it shall be [or shall happen (Bd)] severe calamities (حَوَاقُّ الأُمُورِ); (Fr, S, Bd, K;) namely, the reckoning and the recompensing: (Bd:) or because in it things shall be surely known (Bd, Jel) which are denied; namely, the raising of the dead, and the reckoning, and the recompensing: (Jel:) or because including within its sphere [all] the created beings. (Msb. [Several other reasons are assigned; but these which I have mentioned appear to be the most generally approved.]) b4: See also حَاقٌّ, in two places.

أَحَقُّ [comparative and superlative of حَقِيقٌ]. You say, هُوَ أَحَقُّ بِكَذَا [He is more, and most, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, proper, or competent, for such a thing; or more, and most, worthy, or deserving, of it: and he has a better, and the best, right to such a thing; or a more just, and the most just, title or claim to it; or he is more, and most, entitled to it]: this phrase is used in two senses: first, as denoting the possession of an exclusive right or title, i. e., without the participation of another; as when you say, زَيْدٌ أَحَقُّ بِمَالِهِ Zeyd is entitled to his property exclusively of any other person: secondly, as denoting the possession of a right or title in participation with another person, but in a superior degree; as in the saying, الأَيِّمُ أَحَقُّ بِنَفْسِهَا مِنْ وَلِيِّهَا, (Msb,) i. e. The woman that has not a husband and is not a virgin [is more entitled to dispose of herself than is her guardian]; (Mgh in art. ايم;) meaning that they participate [in the right], but that her right is the stronger: (Msb:) a saying of Mohammad, in which the ايّم is opposed to the بِكْر, for it is added that the بكر is to be asked her permission: but one reading substitutes الثَّيِّبُ for الايّم. (Mgh ubi suprà.) In the saying, in the Kur [v. 106], لَشَهَادَتُنَا أَحَقُّ مِنْ شَهَادَتِهِمَا, it may be formed from اِسْتَحَقَّ by rejection of the augmentative letters, so that the meaning is, [Verily our testimony is] more deserving of being accepted [than the testimony of them two]: or it may be from حَقَّ الشَّىْءُ signifying ثَبَتَ, and so mean more true, or valid. (TA.) A2: Applied to a horse, That does not sweat. (S, K.) b2: And, likewise thus applied, That puts down his hind hoof in the place [that has just before been that] of his fore hoof. (S, * K.) [See حَقَقٌ.]

مُحِقٌّ Speaking truth; saying what is true; (Msb;) contr. of مُبْطِلٌ: (K:) or revealing, or manifesting, or showing, a truth, or a right or due: or laying claim to a right [or to a thing (see 4)] which is, or becomes, due to him.

(TA.) b2: And, applied to a garment, or piece of cloth, (tropical:) Firmly, or compactly, woven, (S, K, TA,) and figured with the form of حُقَق [pl. of حُقَّةٌ, q. v.]. (TA.) مُحَقِّقٌ is often used as meaning A critical judge in matters of literature.]

مَحْقُوقٌ: see حَقِيقٌ, in six places.

مِحَاقٌّ, applied to cattle, Such as have not brought forth, nor been milked (لَمْ يُحْلَبْنَ [in the CK, erroneously, لم يُجْلَبْنَ]), in the next preceding year: (Ibn-'Abbád, K:) or whose first and second milkings are of biestings. (AHát, TA.) طَعْنَةٌ مُحْتَقَّةٌ (in [some of] the copies of the K, erroneously, مُحَقَّقَةٌ, TA) A thrust, or piercing, in which is no swerving from the right direction. (S, A, O, L, K.) مُحَقْحِقٌ: see حَقْحَاقٌ.
