خَمِيصٌ Empty; applied to the belly: (TA:) hungry. (Msb.) b2: خَمِيصُ البَطْنِ, (A,) or خَمِيصُ الحَشَا, (S, K,) and ↓ خُمْصَانٌ, (S, A, K,) and ↓ خَمَصَانٌ, (A, K,) A man empty in the belly, (A,) or lank in the belly; (S, K;) as also ↓ خَامِصٌ البَطْنِ: (K * and TA in art. رهف:) and slender in make: (TA:) fem. of the first with ة, (S, A, K,) and so of the second, (Yaakoob, S, A, K,) and so of the third; (TA;) and IAar mentions ↓ خَمْصَى as a fem., occurring prefixed to الحَشَا in a verse of El-Asamm Ed-Dubeyree: (TA:) pl., (S, A, K,) masc., (A, K,) خِمَاصٌ; (S, A, K;) and fem., [i. e., of خميصة,] خَمَائِصُ: (A, K:) ↓ خُمْصَانٌ has no pl. formed by the addition of و and ن, though its fem. is formed by the addition of ة; being made to accord with the measure فَعْلَانٌ, of which the fem. is فَعْلَى. (TA.) خِمَاصٌ [also] signifies Hungry, in a pl. sense, (K,) and lank in the bellies: (TA:) ↓ مِخْمَاصٌ also signifies the same as خَمِيصٌ; and [its pl.] مَخَامِيصُ, lank in the bellies (خُمْصُ البُطُونِ [whence it appears that ↓ أَخْمَصُ, sing. of خُمْصٌ, is also syn. with خَمِيصٌ]). (TA.) You say also, هُوَ خَمِيصُ البَطْنِ مِنْ أَمْوَالِ النَّاسِ, meaning (tropical:) He is one who abstains from [devouring] the possessions of men. (A.)

(TA.) El-Aashà

says, إِذَا جُرِّدَتْ يَوْمًا حَسِبْتَ خَمِيصَةً

عَلَيْهَا وَ جِرْيَالَ النَّضِيرِ الدُّلَامِصَا [When she is stripped of her clothing, any day, thou wouldst think there was upon her a khameesah, and the glistening redness of gold]: As says, he likens her [long and spreading] hair to a خميصة, which is black.

أَخْمَصُ القَدَمِ A man whose foot rises from the ground, [or is hollow in the middle of the sole,] so that it does not touch it: fem. خَمْصَآءُ: and pl. خُمْصٌ: (Msb:) and ↓ خُمْصَانٌ signifies having the middle of the sole of the foot moderately rising from the ground; which is a goodly quality; but when it is flat, or rises much, it is dispraised: so explained by IAar when he was asked by Th respecting 'Alee's saying of Mohammad, [cited, but not explained, in the K,] كَانَ خُمْصَانَ الأَخْمَصَيْنِ: or, accord. to Az, خُمْصَانٌ signifies having the part [of the sole] of the foot which does not cleave to the ground in treading very much retiring from the ground. (TA.) b2: الأَخْمَصُ [when without the article ال also written without tenween accord. to the best authorities, because the quality of an epithet is original to it, and that of a subst. is accidental,] also signifies The part [of the sole] of the human foot which does not cleave to the ground in treading; (Az, TA;) the part of the sole of the human foot which is hollow, so that it does not touch the ground; (S, K; *) the part of the bottom of the human foot which is thin, and retires from the ground; or, as some explain it, [meaning the same,] the خَصْر of the human foot: (TA:) pl. أَخَامِصُ.

(TA.) b2: And صَبَعَ فُلَانًا عَلَى فُلَانٍ He directed such a one to such a one by pointing, or indication: (S, K:) because, when one directs a man to a way, or road, or to a thing that is latent, or obscure, he points towards it with the finger. (TA.) One says, مَا صَبَعَكَ عَلَيْنَا What directed thee to us? (TA.) And صَبَعَ بَيْنَ القَوْمِ He directed others to the people, or party. (TA.) Of one who magnifies himself, or acts proudly, in his government, or administration, one says, صَبَعَهُ الشَّيْطَانُ (assumed tropical:) [app. meaning The Devil has directed him]: and أَدْرَكَتْهُ أَصَابِعُ الشَّيْطَانِ [The fingers of the Devil have reached him]. (TA. [See the pass. part. n. below.]) b3: And one says, قُرِّبَ إِلَيْهِ طَعَامٌ فَمَا صَبَعَ فِيهِ i. e. [Food was presented, or offered, to him, or was placed, or put, before him, and] he did not put his finger into it. (TA.) [See also صَبَأَ, near the end.] b4: And صَبَعَ الدَّجَاجَةَ, (O, K,) inf. n. as above. (TA,) He inserted his finger into the hen in order that he might know if she were [near] laying an egg or not: (O, K:) mentioned by Z. (TA.) b5: And صَبَعَ الإِنَآءَ He put his finger upon the vessel so that what was in another vessel flowed upon it [into the former vessel]: (A'Obeyd, S, O, K:) or, as some say, he put together his two fingers, [or two of his fingers,] then discharged, or let flow, what was in the vessel, of wine, or beverage, into a thing with a narrow head [or mouth]: or, accord. to Az, he discharged, or let flow, what was in the vessel, of wine, or beverage, between the extremities of [either of] his two thumbs and fore fingers, in order that it might not become scattered, and pour forth copiously. (TA.) b6: and صَبَعَهُ, inf. n. as above, He hit, or hurt, his finger. (TA.) A2: صَبَعَ عَلَى القَوْمِ, inf. n. as above, meaning He came forth upon the people, or party, is said to be originally صَبَأَ, with ء. (TA.) 4 اصبع, followed by عَلَى, is said by Freytag, as on the authority of Meyd, to signify He (a pastor) fed and managed well his cattle: but this is perhaps taken from a mistranscription of the saying, mentioned by Meyd, لِلرَّاعِى عَلَى مَاشِيَتَهِ

(IAar, TA.) b4: and فُلَانٌ مُغِلُّ الإِصْبَعِ (tropical:) Such a one is unfaithful, treacherous, or perfidious. (O, K, * TA. *) b5: and لَهُ إِصْبَعٌ فِى هٰذَا الأَمْرِ (tropical:) [He has a finger in this affair].

(O.) b7: And a man says, in respect of a difficult affair, when he has been made to have recourse to a strong man, able to bear his burden, إِنَّهُ يَأْتِى عَلَيْهِ بِإِصْبِعٍ وَاحِدَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [Verily he will make an end of it with one finger]: and إِنَّهُ يَكْفِيهِ بِصُغْرَى أَصَابِعِهِ (assumed tropical:) [Verily the smallest of his fingers will suffice him for its accomplishment; the ب thus prefixed to the agent being redundant, as in كَفَى بِاللّٰهِ شَهِيدًا and many other instances]. (O.) b8: أَبُو الإِصْبَعِ is one of the surnames of The Devil. (TA. [See صَبَعَهُ الشِّيْطَانُ, above.]) b9: [إِصْبَعٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) A prong, as resembling a finger: so in the S and K in art. حفر, and in other instances.] b10: أَصَابِعُ الفَتَيَاتِ, (O, TS, K,) in the “ Minháj ” of Ibn-Jezleh اصابع الفتيان, [app. a mistranscription,] and in the I, اصابع البُنَيَّاتِ, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) [Common clinopodium, or wild basil,] the sweet-smelling plant called in Pers\. الفَرَنْجَمُشْك, (AHn, O, K,) which grows abundantly in the southern parts of Arabia, and is not depastured by any animal.
