[عَزَّ وَجَلَّ, referring to the name of God expressed or understood, is a phrase of frequent occurrence, meaning, To Him, or to Whom, belong might and majesty, or glory and greatness.] b2: You also say, عَزَزْتُ عَلَيْهِ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـِ (O, K,) meaning, كَرُمْتُ عَلَيْهِ, (S, O, K, *) i. e., I exceeded him in nobleness, or generosity. (TK.) b3: And عَزَّ, [aor. ـِ inf. n. عِزٌّ and عِزَّةٌ and app. عَزَازَةٌ also,] He magnified, or exalted, himself: (TA:) (assumed tropical:) he was disdainful, scornful, or indignant, in a blamable manner. (TA, in explanation of عِزَّةٌ; q. v. infrà.) [See also 5.] b4: He resisted, or withstood: (TA, in explanation of عِزٌّ:) he was indomitable, invincible; not to be overcome. (B and TA, in explanation of عِزَّةٌ, q. v. infrà.) And عَزَّ الشَّىْءُ, aor. ـِ The thing was, or became, [difficult, or hard; as also ↓ اِعْتَزَّ, (occurring in the TA, coupled with تَعَسَّرَ, in an explanation of مَنُعَ, in art. منع,) and ↓ تعزّز: and] impossible, insuperable, or unattainable: or so, as Es-Sarakustee says, ↓ تعزّز.

(S, O, K.) b6: [and hence, He, or it, was, or became, dear, highly esteemed, or greatly valued..] b7: عَزَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ (Mgh, O, Msb, K) and عَزَّ (Fr, Mgh, O, K,) [the second Pers\. of the pret. being عَزَزْتَ and عَزِزْتَ,] the latter aor. the more chaste, (O,) means Thy doing so distressed, or hath distressed, or afflicted, me; or, emphatically, distresses, or afflicts, me; syn. اِشْتَدَّ, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K, TA,) and حَقَّ, (S, O, K, TA,) and شَقَّ: (TA:) a phrase [often, but not always,] alluding to a loathing of the action, or indignation thereat. (Msb.) In like manner also you say, عَزَّ عَلَىَّ كَذَا Such a thing distressed, or afflicted, me. (S.) And عَزَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ

أَسُوْءَكَ It distressed, or afflicted, me to displease thee. (A.) And عَزَّ مَا أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ, like حَقَّ أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ [or حَقَّ مَا انّك ذاهب, meaning It is distressing that thou art going away]. (TA.) And one says to a man, Dost thou love me? and he replies, لَعَزَّ مَا, i. e., لَشَدَّ مَا, (A, O, K,) and لَحَقَّ مَا, (A, TA,) meaning It distresses me, what thou sayest; or it has distressed me. (TK.) You say also, بِمَا أَصَابَكَ ↓ أُعْزِزْتُ I was, or am, distressed by what befell, or hath befallen, thee. (S, O, K.) And عَلَىَّ بِمَا أُصِبْتَ بِهِ ↓ أَعْزِزْ That by which thou hast been afflicted distresses me: (S, O:) [or how doth it distress me!] so in a trad. of 'Alee; when he beheld Talhah slain, he said, عَلَىَّ ↓ أَعْزِزْ

أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ أَنْ أَرَاكَ مُجَدَّلًا تَحْتَ نُجُومِ السَّمَآءِ [It distresses me, or how doth it distress me! O Aboo-Mohammad, that I see thee prostrated upon the ground beneath the stars of heaven]. (TA.) [A similar ex. is given in the A; without بِ prefixed to أَنْ.]

A2: عَزَّ also signifies He was, or became, weak: thus having two contr. meanings. (Msb.) A3: عَزَّهُ, aor. ـُ (S, A, O, K,) inf. n. عَزٌّ, (S, O, TA,) He overcame him, or conquered him: (S, A, O:) he overcame him in argumentative contest; (K, * TA;) as also ↓ عَزْعَزَهُ, (K,) inf. n. عَزْعَزَةٌ; (TA;) and so عَزَّهُ فِى الخِطَابِ: (Jel in xxxviii.

22, and TA:) or this last signifies he became stronger than he therein; (TA;) or he strove with him to overcome therein; as also فِيهِ ↓ عازّهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. مُعَازَّةٌ: (O, TA:) in the Kur xxxviii.

22, some read عَزَّنِى; and others, ↓ عَازَّنِى: and you say, فَعَزَزْتُهُ ↓ عَازَّنِى, meaning, he strove with me to overcome, and I overcame him: and مُعَازَّةٌ signifies the contending together in argument: (TA:) you say also of a horse, فَارِسَهُ ↓ اعتزّ [he overcame his rider, or gained the mastery over him]. (S and K in art. جمع.) It is said in a prov., (S,) مَنْ عَزَّ بَزَّ He who overcomes takes the spoil. (S, A, O, K.) And in another prov., (S,) إِذَا عَزَّ أَخُوكَ فَهُنْ (Th, S, O, K) When thy brother overcomes thee, and thou art not equal to him (لَمْ تُقَاومْهُ) be thou gentle to him: (Az, O, K, TA:) or when thy brother magnifies and exalts himself against thee, abase thyself: (Th, TA:) or, accord. to Aboo-Is-hák, what Th says is a mistake; the right reading being فَهِنْ, with kesr, and the meaning, when thy brother is hard, or severe, to thee, treat thou him with gentleness, or blandishment; not فَهُنْ, with damm, which is from الهَوَانُ: but ISd approves and justifies the reading given by Th. (TA.) [See also 10.]

A4: عَزَّهُ. aor. ـُ inf. n. عَزٌّ, also signifies the same as عَزَّزَهُ (Msb, TA *) and أَعَزَّهُ, (TA,) in a sense pointed out below: see 2, in two places.

(S, K, TA.) In the Kur [xxxvi. 13], some read, فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ; (S, TA;) and others, بثالث ↓ فَعَزَزْنَا; meaning And then we strengthened [them] by a third. (S, O, TA.)

(TA. [See another reading voce تَعَزَّى, in art. عزى.]) You say also, تَعَزَّيْتُ عَنْهُ, meaning I constrained myself to endure the loss, or want, of him, or it, with patience; originally تَعَزَّزْتُ, meaning, I exerted my strength or energy [to divert myself from him, or it]; like تَظَنَّيْتُ for تَظَنَّنْتُ.

(TA.) A2: See also عَزَزٌ.

عَزُوزٌ Narrow in the orifices of the teats; (S, A, O, K;) applied to a she-camel, (S, O, K,) and to a ewe, (O,) and to a she-goat. (TA.) One says of a niggardly man possessing much property, فُلَانٌ عَنْزٌ عَزُوزٌ لَهَا دَرٌّ جَمٌّ (assumed tropical:) [Such a one is like a she-goat narrow in the orifices of the teats, that has much milk].

(TA.) b5: وَإِنَّهُ لَكِتَابٌ عَزِيزٌ, [said of the Kur, in that book, xli. 41, means And verily it is a mighty book: meaning, inimitable: or] defended, or protected, (Bd, Jel,) from being rendered void and from being corrupted: (Bd:) or of great utility; unequalled. (Bd.) [الكِتَابُ العَزِيزُ The mighty book, is an appellation often given to the Kur-án.] b6: عِزُّ عَزِيزٌ signifies Great might, or the like: or might, or the like, that is a cause of the same to a person.

المُؤْمِنِينَ أَعِزَّةٍ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ, meaning, [God will bring a people whom He will love and who will love Him,] gentle to the believers, rough in manners, or behaviour, to the unbelievers: (TA:) or submissive to the believers, though they be [themselves] mighty, or noble, proud to the unbelievers, though they be [themselves] inferior to them in highness of rank and in grounds of pretension to respect. (Az, TA.) b8: [And one says, هُوَ العَزِيزُ

أَنْ يُضَامَ: expl. voce اَلْ (p. 75). And هُوَ عَزِيزُ النَّفْسِ: see صُلْبٌ. And اِمْرَأَةٌ عَزِيزَةٌ عَنْدَ نَفْسِهَا: see ظَلِفٌ. b9: عَزِيزٌ also signifies Severe, difficult, distressing, or grievous; (see an ex. voce عَنِتَ;) and so ↓ أَعَزُّ, fem. عَزَّآءُ:] you say, سَنَةٌ عَزَّآءُ A severe year: (S, O, K:) and مَنْ حَسُنَ مِنْهُ العَزَآءُ هَآنَتْ عَلَيْهِ العَزَّآءُ [He whose patient endurance of a loss is of a good description, what is difficult, or distressing, becomes easy to him]. (A.) A2: حَبُّ العَزِيزِ [The small tubercles that compose the root of the cyperus esculentus, which have a sweet and pleasant taste, and which women eat with the view of acquiring fatness thereby: and also that plant itself: both are thus called in the present day].

عَزِيزَةٌ [fem. of عَزِيزٌ, q. v. b2: Also] An eagle: so in a verse of Aboo-Kebeer El-Hudhalee: but as some relate that verse, it is عَزِيبَة, (K, TA,) i. e. “ that has gone far from the seeker: ” (TA:) or غَرِيبَة, (TA, and thus in the CK,) expl. by Skr as meaning “ black ” (سَوْدَآء) [as though for غِرْبِيبَة, fem. of غِربِيب: but the word سَوْدَآء immediately follows it in that verse]. (TA.) عُزَيْزَى and عُزَيْزَآءُ The extremity of the hip, or haunch, of a horse: (S, O, K, TA:) or the part between the root of the tail and the جَاعِرَة [q. v.]; (TA as from the K [in which I do not find it]): or the former, a sinew inserted in the rectum, extending to the hip, or haunch: (Aboo-Málik, TA:) dual of the former عُزَيْزَيَانِ, and of the latter عُزَيْزَاوَانِ. (S, O, TA.) عُزَّى: see أَعَزُّ, in four places: and عَزِيزٌ.

عَزَّآءُ [fem. of أَعَزُّ, q. v., last sentence: b2: and] i. q. مَعْزُوزَةٌ, q. v. (TA.) أَعَزُّ [More, and most, mighty, potent, powerful, or strong: &c.: see عَزِيزٌ, of which it is the comparative and superlative form: and see an ex. voce اَلْ (p. 75): and another in a verse cited in art. صب, conj. 6]. It is related in a trad. of Aboo-Bekr, that he said to 'Áïsheh, إِنَّ أَحَبَّ النَّاسِ إِلَىَّ غَنًى أَنْتِ وَأَعَزُّهُمْ فَقْرًا أَنْتِ, meaning. Verily the one of mankind whose richness is most pleasing to me art thou; and the one of them whose poverty is most distressing to me art thou. (Mgh.) The fem. of أَعَزُّ [as a noun of excess] is ↓ عُزَّى: (S, ISd, O, K;) like as فُضْلَى is of أَفْضَلُ. (ISd.) [But see what follows.] b2: ↓ العُزَّى

was the name of A certain idol, (S, O, K,) belonging to Kureysh and Benoo-Kináneh: (S, O, TA:) or a certain gum-acacia-tree, (سَمُرَةٌ,) which the tribe of Ghatafán (S, O, K) the son of Saad the son of Keys-'Eilán (TA) used to worship; (S, O, K;) the first who took it as an object of worship was Dhálim the son of As' ad; above Dhát-'Irk, nine miles towards El-Bustán, (O, K, TA,) at [the valley called] En-Nakhleh Esh-Shámeeyeh, (O, TA,) near Mekkeh; or, as some say, at Et-Táïf: (TA:) he, (K,) Dhálim, (O,) or they, (S,) built over it a house, (S, O, K) and named it بُسّ, (O, K,) accord. to Ibn-El-Kelbee; or, accord. to others, بُسَّآء; (TA;) and they appointed to it ministers, (S, TA,) like those of the Kaabeh; (TA;) and they used to hear in it a voice: (O, K, TA:) but Mohammad sent to it Khálid Ibn-El-Weleed, (S, O, K,) in the year of the conquest [of Mekkeh], (O, TA,) and he demolished the house, (S, K,) and slew the [chief] minister, (TA,) and burned the gum-acacia-tree: (S, O, K:) or, as is related on the authority of I'Ab, a certain she-devil, who used to come to three gumacacia-trees (سَمُرَات) in Batn-Nakhleh, against whom Mohammad, when he conquered Mekkeh, sent Khálid Ibn-El-Weleed; and he cut down the trees, and slew her and her minister. (TA.) A poet says, أَمَا وَدِمَآءٍ مَائِرَاتٍ تَخَالُهَا عَلَى قُنَّةِ العُزَّى وَبِالنَّسْرِ عَنْدَمَا [Verily, or now surely, by bloods flowing, and running hither and thither, which thou wouldst think to be dragon's-blood, upon the mountain-top of El-' Ozzà, and by En-Nesr]. (S.) ISd says, I hold ↓ العُزَّى to be fem. of الأَعَزُّ; and if so, the ال in the former is not redundant, but is like the ال in الحَارِثُ and العَبَّاسُ: but properly it should be redundant, because we have not heard العُزَّى as an epithet [of excess] like as we have heard الصُّغْرَى and الكُبْرَى. (L, TA.) b3: ↓ عُزَّى is [however] used in the sense of عَزِيزَةٌ: (K, TA:) and أَعَزُّ [fem. عَزَّآءُ] is also syn. with عَزِيزٌ, which see in four places.

(M.) And صَوِىَ الضَّرْعُ The udder had no milk remaining in it.

(M.) Some say that تَصْوِيَةٌ is like تَصْرِيَةٌ; and hence the trad., التَّصْوِيَةُ خِلَابَةٌ [i. e. The causing the milk to collect in the udder of an animal by abstaining from milking her for some days, when one desires to sell her, is an endeavouring to deceive: but I think that the right reading in this instance is probably التَّصْرِيَةُ, with ر]. (TA.) b2: It is also used in relation to a stallion (S, M, K) of the camels: (S:) thus it is used by El-Fak'asee. (M.)

A2: صَدَا, inf. n. صَدْوٌ: see 2, in two places.2 تَصْدِيَةٌ signifies The clapping with the hands; syn. تَصْفِيقٌ; (S, K;) accord. to Er-Rághib, as being like the echo (الصَّدَى), inasmuch as there is no profit in it; (TA;) or it is from الصَّدُّ, because they [who practised it in their worship] used to turn away (كَانُوا يَصُدُّونَ) from El-Islám; (K;) [see more in the second paragraph of art. صد;] and صَدْوٌ [an inf. n. of which the verb is ↓ صَدَا] signifies the same; (K;) and so ↓ تَصَدٍّ, of which AHeyth cites as an ex. the saying of Hassán صَلَاتُهُمُ التَّصَدَّى وَالمُكَآءُ [Their prayer is the clapping with the hands, and whistling: like the saying in the Kur viii. 35]: (TA:) one says of a man, صدّى, (M,) or صدّى

In the Kur xxxviii. 1, some read صَادِ, with kesr, as an imperative from المُصَادَاةُ (Bd, TA) as meaning المُعَارَضَةُ; and hence الصَّدَى [i. e. the echo], because it imitates (يُعَارِضُ) the first sound: so that the meaning is, Imitate thou (عَارِض) the Kur-án by thy works. (Bd.) b2: [And] i. q. دَبَّرَهُ [i. e. He considered, or forecast, its issues, or results; did, performed, or executed, it with thought, or consideration; or managed, conducted, ordered, or regulated, it]; relating to an affair: (M:) [or] المُصَادَاةُ signifies the turning about, or revolving, the opinion, or idea, [that one forms] respecting the management (تَدْبِير) of a thing, and the doing of it: (Ham p. 35:) [or,] accord. to As, the minding a thing attentively, carefully, or solicitously: a man who had assisted his she-camel in her bringing forth said, بِتُّ أُصَادِيهَا طُولَ لَيْلِى [I passed all my night minding her attentively, carefully, or solicitously]; because he disliked binding her fore shank to her arm, as it would distress her; or leaving her, as she might go away at random and the wolf might devour her young one: and in like manner one says of the pastor, يُصَادِى إِبِلَهُ [He minds attentively, &c., his camels]; when they thirst before the completion of their usual period of being kept from drinking, he restricts them to journeying by night so as to arrive at water on the morrow.

(M.) مَنْ صَادَاكَ فَقَدْ صَادَكَ [He who soothes thee, or coaxes thee, surely ensnares thee] is a saying mentioned in the A. (TA.) 4 اصدى It (a mountain) returned an echo. (S, * K.) b2: And He (a man, TA) died; (K, TA;) as though [meaning] his echo ceased; the | having a privative effect. (TA.) 5 التَّصَدِّى, accord. to Er-Rághib, signifies The corresponding to a thing like as does the echo returning from the mountain. (TA.) [But accord. to others,] تصدّى لَهُ is originally تَصَدَّدَ; (Az and L in art. صد;) and signifies تَعَرَّضَ, (S, M, K,) and تَضَرَّعَ. (M.) [See 5 in art. صد; where the usages of this verb, except in the senses mentioned and indicated here below, are fully explained.] b2: It signifies also The feigning oneself unmindful, negligent, inattentive, inadvertent, inconsiderate, or heedless, not being really so.

(S.) One says, صَمَّ صَدَاهُ (tropical:) [His echo became dumb, or may his echo become dumb]; (S, TA;) meaning he perished, or may he perish: (S and K and TA in art. صم:) and أَصَمَّ اللّٰهُ صَدَاهُ (tropical:) [May God make his echo to return no sound]; (S, K, TA;) meaning may God destroy him: (S, K, and TA in art. صم:) for when a man dies, the صدى hears not from him anything, that it should respond to him. (S. [See also another explanation of this saying in what follows.]) b2: And A sound, voice, or cry, (M, TA,) in an absolute sense. (TA.) b3: Also The part of the head, (M,) or the part of the brain, (TA,) which is the place [or seat] of hearing. (M, TA.) And therefore one says, أَصَمَّ اللّٰهُ صَدَاهُ [May God render deaf the part of his brain which is the seat of hearing]. (TA.) b4: And The brain, (M, K, TA,) itself. (TA.) And The [entire] contents (lit. the stuffing, حَشْو,) of the head; (M, K, TA;) also called the هَامَة. (TA.) One says, صَدَعَ اللّٰهُ صَدَاهُ [May God crack his brain, or the contents of his head]. (M.) b5: And A bird that cries in the هَامَة [or head] of the slain when his blood has not been avenged by retaliation: (M:) or a bird that comes forth (M, K) from his head, (مِنْ رَأْسِهِ, M,) or from the head of the slain, (K,) when he, or it, has become consumed, or decayed, (M, K,) also called the هَامَة; (M;) accord. to the assertion of the people of the Time of Ignorance; (M, K;) mentioned by A 'Obeyd; and some of them used to say that the bones of the dead became a هَامَة, which flew: pl. أَصْدَآءٌ: (TA:) and [this may be meant by the saying that it signifies] the male of the بُوم (S, M, K, TA) and هَام: pl. أَصْدَآءٌ: (M:) they used to say that when a man was slain and his blood was not avenged by retaliation, there came forth from his head a bird like the بُومَة, i. e. the هَامَة, the male being called the صدى; and it cried upon his grave, اِسْقُونِى اِسْقُونِى [Give ye me to drink, give ye me to drink, meaning, of the blood of the slayer]; and if the slayer was slain, it abstained from its crying: (TA:) and [it is said that] it signifies also the body [itself] of a human being after his death; (M, K;) or the remains of the dead in his grave, i. e. his جُثَّة [or corpse]. (JM, TA.) b6: And, (K,) accord. to El-'Adebbes, (S,) [A cricket;] a certain flying thing, that creaks by night, and hops, (S, K,) and flies, thought by the [common] people to be the جُنْدَب, but it is only the صدى, the جندب being smaller than the صدى.

(S.) A2: Also Thirst: (S, M, K:) or vehement thirst: (M:) [see the first paragraph, in which it is mentioned as an inf. n.:] it is said that thirst does not become vehement but the brain dries, and therefore the skin of the forehead of him who dies of thirst cracks. (TA.) b2: See also the next paragraph.
