Young men used to say to an old man, أَجْزَرْتُ يَا شَيْخُ (assumed tropical:) [Thou hast attained to the time for dying, (lit. for being cut,) O old man]: and he replied, أَىْ بَنِىَّ وَتُخْتَضَرُونَ (assumed tropical:) [O my sons, and ye shall be cut off, or die, in your youth].

(S, A, Msb, K.) [Hence,] اخضرّ إِزَارَى (The place of) my ازار became black: or, rather, became of a [blackish] hue inclining to green: because the hair when it first grows is of that hue. (Har p. 494.) And اخضرّ شَارِبُهُ [His mustache grew so as to appear dark]; said of a boy; a phrase similar to بَقَلَ وَجْهُهُ.

Whence the saying, مَضِرَةٌ ↓ الدُّنْيَا خَضِرَةٌ [in the S حُلْوَةٌ خَضِرَةٌ] The goods of this world are delicate, fresh, and pleasant: or pleasing. (TA.)

(TA.) Also A species of plant of the kind called جَنْبَة; (K;) which latter term is applied to herbage whereof the root is deep in the earth, like the نَصِىّ and صِلِّيَان: (TA:) [a coll. gen. n.:] n. un. with ة: (K:) it is not of the slender and succulent herbs or leguminous plants, which dry up in summer. (TA.) Hence آكِلَةُ الخَضِرِ, occurring in a trad., [properly signifying A she-camel that eats the plant above mentioned,] applied to a man who acts justly and moderately with respect to worldly enjoyments: for the خضر is not of the slender and succulent herbs, as above observed, nor of those excellent plants which the spring produces by its consecutive rains, and which therefore become goodly and soft or tender; but of those upon which beasts pasture after others have dried up, because they find no others, and which the Arabs call جَنْبَة; and the beasts do not eat much of it, nor do they find it wholesome.

Hast thou ever seen the wolf?]: meaning that the milk was of an ash-colour (أَوْرَق), like the colour of the wolf, by reason of the great quantity of the water: or, as some say, milk and water in the proportion of one third of the former to two thirds of the latter: it is of any milk, that has been kept in a skin or that is fresh, and from any beast: some say that the word is a pl., [or rather a coll. gen. n.,] and that the sing., or n. un., is with ة. (TA.) خَضُورٌ: see أَخْضَرُ.

(Msb, TA.) You say شَجَرَةٌ خَضْرَآءُ A green, and fresh, or juicy, tree. (TA.) and مَآءٌ أَخْضَرُ Water inclining to a green colour, by reason of its clearness. (TA.) And أَخْضَرُ الجِلْدَةِ [lit.

أَخْضَرُ الجِلْدَةِ فِى بَيْتِ العَرَبْ [And I am the tawny: who knows me? the tawny of skin (or pure of race), of the family that comprises the nobility of the Arabs]. (S, IB.)

أَخْضَرُ (tropical:) Such a one possesses abundant خَيْر [or wealth, or prosperity]: (A, TA:) [or it may mean goodness: for] الأَخْضَرُ, applied to a man, is an epithet of praise, whereby he may be likened to the sea, because it is described as green, or to the [rain or herbage called] رَبِيع; in both cases meaning (assumed tropical:) liberal, or bountiful; and it is so applied because خُضْرَةٌ is of the colours of the Arabs: and it is also an epithet of dispraise, as meaning (assumed tropical:) black by reason of baseness, ignobleness, or meanness. (Ham p. 282.) And شَابٌّ أَخْضَرُ (tropical:) A young man whose hair has begun to grow upon the sides of his face. (TA.)

And [hence,] جَنَّ عَلَيْهِ أَخْضَرُ الجَنَاحَيْنِ (tropical:) Night [lit. the black-winged] veiled him, concealed him, or covered him with its darkness. (A.) مُدْهَامَّتَانِ, in the Kur [lv. 64, relating to two gardens of Paradise], is explained by خَضْرَاوَانِ because it means Inclining to blackness, by reason of abundance of moisture, or irrigation.

خَضْرَآءُ [is also used as a subst., and] signifies Gree herbs or leguminous plants; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ خُضَارَةٌ: (K:) pl. خَضْرَاوَاتٌ: by rule it should be خُضْرٌ; but as the quality of a subst. predominates in it, it has a pl. like the pl. of a subst., like صَحْرَاوَاتٌ pl. of صَحْرَآءٌ: (Msb:) this pl. occurs in the saying (in a trad., TA) لَيْسَ فِى

الخَضْرَاوَاتِ صَدَقَةٌ There is no poor-rate in the case of green herbs or leguminous plants; (Msb;) or fresh fruits and herbs or leguminous plants; (TA;) or fruits, such as the apple and the pear &c.; or herbs or leguminous plants, such as leeks and smallage and rue and the like; and خُضَرٌ, pl. of خُضْرَةٌ, is sometimes substituted for it. (Mgh.) [Hence,] إِيَّاكُمْ وَخَضْرَآءُ الدِّمَنِ, meaning (tropical:) Avoid ye the beautiful woman that is of bad origin: (S, A, Msb:) because what grows in a دِمْنَة [or place which men have blackened by their cooking, and where their camels or other beasts have staled and dunged], though it may be beautiful and bright, does not bear fruit [because it is neglected, and left unwatered], (S, Msb,) and soon becomes corrupt, or bad. (Msb. [See also دِمْنَةٌ: and see عُشْبَةٌ الدَّارِ, in art. عشب.]) b4: And الخَضْرَآءُ, as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates, (TA,) (tropical:) The sky, or heaven; (S, A, K;) because of its greenness; like as the earth is called الغَبْرَآءُ.

So in the saying, أَبَادَ اللّٰهُ خَضْرَآءَهُمْ (assumed tropical:) [May God destroy the congregated or collective body, mass, or bulk, of them]: (S:) or this means, (tropical:) their stock (شَجَرَة) from which they have branched off; (A;) [for] خَضْرَآءُ signifies the origin of anything: (TA:) or, their life in this present world: (Fr, TA:) or, as some say, their enjoyment and plenty; (TA;) [for] خَضْرَآءُ signifies prosperity, and plenty, and enjoyment: (TA in a later part of this art.:) or the right reading is غَضْرَآءَهُمْ, meaning “their prosperity, and their pleasantness of life, or plenty and prosperity.” (S. [See art. غضر.]) b7: البَقْلَةُ الخَضْرَآءُ: see خَضِرٌ. b8: الخُضْرُ, (T,) or الخَضْرَآءُ, (K,) The domestic pigeons; (T, K;) so called although of various colours, because their predominant colour is وُرْقَة [or ash-colour], or خُضْرَة [meaning a dark, or an ashy, dust-colour]: the خُضْر and the نُمْر [or spotted with white and black, &c.,] are especially characterized by the faculty of rightly directing their course. (T, TA.) b9: الأَخَاصِرُ [a pl. of الأَخْضَرُ used as a subst.] (tropical:) Gold and flesh-meat and wine; as also الأَحَامِرَةُ [as some explain this latter]. (TA.) b10: أَخْضَرُ also signifies (tropical:) Fresh, or recent: so in the saying, الأَمْرُ بَيْنَنَا أَخْضَرُ (tropical:) [The affair between us is fresh, or recent]: and in like manner you say, المَوَدَّةُ بَيْنَنَا خَضْرَآءُ (tropical:) Love, or affection, between us is fresh.

(Az, T and TA in art. نوأ.) الأُخَيْضِرُ dim. [of الأَخْضَرُ], (TA,) [Cantharides;] a kind of fly, (K,) green, of a dark or an ashy dust-colour, (أَخْضَرُ,) of the size of the black fly, and called the Indian fly [as cantharides are (??) the Arabs in the present day]; having properties and uses mentioned in medical books.

علم العرافة
هو معرفة الاستدلال ببعض الحوادث الخالية على الحوادث الآتية بالمناسبة أو المشابهة الخفية التي تكون بينهما أو الاختلاط أو الارتباط على أن يكونا معلولي أمر وأحد أو يكون ما في الحال علة لما في الاستقبال وشرط كون الارتباط المذكور خفيا أن لا يطلع عليه إلا الأفراد وذلك إما بالتجارب أو بالحالة المودعة في أنفسهم عند الفطرة بحيث عبر عنهم النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بالمحدثين المصيبين في الظن والفراسة.
حكي أن الاسكندر حين أراد قتال ملك الفرس قال: ذلك الملك لا حاجة إلى مقابلة عساكرهم نقاتل معك فإما أن تقتلني وإما أن أقتلك ففرح الاسكندر بهذا الكلام حيث قدم ذلك الملك نفسه في ذكر القتل فكان كما قال.
ويحكى عنه أيضا أنه لما دخل بلاد المغرب فمر على امرأة في مدينة تنسج ثوبا فقالت له: أيها الملك أعطيت ملكا ذا طول وعرض ثم مر عليها الملك الأول فقالت له: سيقطع الاسكندر ملكك فغضب الملك فقالت: لا تغضب إن النفوس قد تشاهد أمور قبل وقوعها بعلامات تحكم النفس بصدقها لما مر علي الاسكندر كنت أنسج طول الثوب وعرضه ولما مررت أنت فرغت وأردت قطعه وكان الأمر كما قالت.
ويحكى أنه كان في زمن هارون الرشيد رجل أعمى من أهل العرافة وكان يستدل على المسئول عنه بكلام مصدر عن الحاضرين عقيب السؤال فسرق يوما من خزانة هارون بعض من الأشياء فطلب الرجل وأمر أن لا يتكلم أحد بعد السؤال أصلا ففعلوا كما أمر هارون والأعمى ألقى سمعه ولم يسمع شيئا فأمر يده على البساط فوجد فيه نواة تمرة فقال: إن المسئول عنه در وزبرجد وياقوت. فقال الرشيد: في أين هو؟ قال: في بئر فوجدوه كما ذكر الأعمى فتحير الرشيد فيه.
فسأل عن سبب معرفته.
فقال: وجدت نواة تمرة وطلع النخل أبيض وهو كالدرة ثم يكون بسرا وهو أخضر وهو لون الزمرد ثم يكون رطبا وهو أحمر وهو لون الياقوت ثم لما سألتم عن مكان المسروق سمعت صوت دلو فعرفت أنه في بئر فاستحسن الرشيد فراسته فأعطاه مالا جزيلاً.
وحكي أن أبا معشر وصاحبه ذهبا إلى عراف فسألاه عن شيء فقال: أنكما سألتما عن مسجون فقالا: إنه يخلص قال: نعم يخلص فسألاه عن سبب معرفته فقال: إنكما لما سألتماني وقع نظري على قربة ماء فعرفت أن السؤال عن مسجون ولما سألتماني عن خلاصة نظرت فإذا هو قد فرغ قربته.
