علم الميزان
ويسمى علم المنطق تقدم وإنما سمي بالميزان إذ به توزن الحجج والبراهين.
وكان أبو علي يسميه: خادم العلوم إذ ليس مقصودا بنفسه بل هو وسيلة إلى العلوم فهو كخادم لها.
وأبو نصر يسميه: رئيس العلوم لنفاذ حكمه فيها فيكون رئيسا حاكما عليها وإنما سمي بالمنطق لأن النطق يطلق على اللفظ وعلى إدراك الكليات وعلى النفس الناطقة.
ولما كان هذا الفن يقوي الأول ويسلك بالثاني مسلك السداد ويحصل بسببه كمالات الثالث اشتق له اسم منه وهو المنطق.
وهو: علم بقوانين تفيد معرفة طرق الانتقال من المعلومات إلى المجهولات وشرائطها بحيث لا يعرض الغلط في الفكر.
والمعلومات: تتناول الضرورية والنظرية.
والمجهولات: تتناول التصورية والتصديقية وهذا أولى مما ذكره صاحب الكشف تفيد معرفة طرق الانتقال من الضروريات إلى النظريات لأنه يوهم بالانتقال الذاتي علم ما يتبادر من العبارة والمراد الأعم من أن يكون بالذات أو بالواسطة.
وأما احترازاته: فقد ذكرها صاحب كشاف اصطلاحات الفنون وليس إيرادها ههنا من غرضنا في هذا الكتاب.
والمنطق من العلوم الآلية لأن المقصود منه تحصيل المجهول من المعلوم ولذا قيل: الغرض من تدوينه العلوم الحكمية فهو في نفسه غير مقصود ولذا قيل المنطق آلة قانونية تعصم مراعاتها الذهن عن الخطأ في الفكر.
وموضوعه: التصورات والتصديقات أي: المعلومات التصورية والتصديقية لأن بحث المنطقي عن أعراضها الذاتية فإنه يبحث عن التصورات من حيث إنها توصل إلى تصور مجهول إيصالا قريبا أي بلا واسطة كالحد والرسم أو إيصالا بعيدا ككونها كلية وجزئية وذاتية وعرضية ونحوها فإن مجرد أمر من هذه الأمور لا يوصل إلى التصور ما لم ينضم إليه آخر يحصل منها حد أو رسم.
ويبحث عن التصديقات من حيث أنها توصل إلى تصديق مجهول إيصالا قريبا كالقياس والاستقراء والتمثيل أو بعيد ككونها قضية وعكس قضية ونقيضها فإنها ما لم تنضم إليه ضميمة لا توصل إلى التصديق.
ويبحث عن التصورات من حيث أنها توصل إلى التصديق إيصالا أبعد ككونها موضوعات ومحمولات ولا خفاء في أن إيصال التصورات والتصديقات إلى المطالب قريبا أو بعيدا من العوارض الذاتية لها فتكون هي موضوع المنطق.
وذهب أهل التحقيق إلى أن موضوعه المعقولات الثانية لا من حيث إنها ما هي في أنفسها ولا من حيث أنها موجودة في الذهن فإن ذلك وظيفة فلسفية بل من حيث أنها توصل إلى المجهول أو يكون لها نفع في الإيصال.
فإن المفهوم الكلي إذا وجد في الذهن وقيس إلى ما تحته من الجزئيات فباعتبار دخوله في ماهياتها يعرض له الذاتية وباعتبار خروجه عنها العرضية وباعتبار كونه نفس ماهياتها النوعية وما عرض له الذاتية جنس باعتبار اختلاف أفراده وفصل باعتبار آخر وكذلك ما عرض له العرضية إما خاصة أو عرض عام باعتبارين مختلفين.
وإذا ركبت الذاتيات والعرضيات إما منفردة أو مختلطة على وجوه مختلفة عرض لذلك المركب الحدية والرسمية ولا شك أن هذه المعاني أعني كون المفهوم الكلي ذاتيا أو عرضيا أو نوعا ونحو ذلك ليست من الموجودات الخارجية بل هي مما يعرض للطبائع الكلية إذا وجدت في الأذهان وكذا الحال في كون القضية حملية أو شرطية وكون الحجة قياسا أو استقراء أو تمثيلا فإنها بأسرها عوارض تعرض لطبائع النسب الجزئية في الأذهان إما وحدها أو مأخوذة مع غيرها فهي أي المعقولات الثانية موضوع المنطق.
ويبحث المنطقي عن المعقولات الثالثة وما بعدها من المراتب فإنها عوارض ذاتية للمعقولات الثانية فقط.
فالقضية مثلا معقول ثان يبحث عن انقسامها وتناقضها وانعكاسها وإنتاجها إذا ركبت بعضها مع بعض فالانعكاس والإنتاج والانقسام والتناقض معقولات واقعة في الدرجة الثالثة من التعقل وإذا حكم على أحد الأقسام أو أحد المتناقضين مثلا في المباحث المنطقية بشيء كان ذلك الشيء في الدرجة الرابعة من التعقل وعلى هذا القياس.
وقيل: موضوعه الألفاظ من حيث أنها تدل على المعاني وهو ليس بصحيح لأن نظر المنطقي ليس إلا في المعاني ورعاية جانب اللفظ إنما هي بالعرض.
والغرض من المنطق: التمييز بين الصدق والكذب في الأقوال والخير والشر في الأفعال والحق والباطل في الاعتقادات.
ومنفعته: القدرة على تحصيل العلوم النظرية والعملية.
وأما شرفه: فهو أن بعضه فرض وهو البرهان لأنه لتكميل الذات وبعضه نقل وهو ماسوى البرهان من أقسام القياس، لأنه للخطاب مع الغير ومن أتقن المنطق فهو على درجة من سائر العلوم، ومن طلب العلوم الغير المتسقة وهي ما لا يؤمن فيها من الغلط ولا يعلم المنطق، فهو كحاطب ليل وكرامد العين لا يقدر على النظر إلى الضوء لا البخل من الموجد بل لنقصان في الأستعداد والصواب الذي يصدر من غير المنطقي كرمي من غير رام، وقد يندر للمنطقي خطأ في النوافل دون المهمات لكنه يمكنه استدراكه بعرضه على القوانين المنطقية. ومرتبته في القراءة أن يقرأ بعد تهذيب الأخلاق وتقويم الفكر ببعض العلوم الرياضية مع الهندسة والحساب.
وأما الأول: فلما قال أبقراط: البدن ليس بنقي كلما غذوته إنما يزيد شرا ووبالا ألا ترى أن الذين لم يهذبوا أخلاقهم إذا شرعوا في المنطق سلكوا منهج الضلال وانخرطوا في سلك الجهال وأنفوا أن يكونوا مع الجماعة ويتقلدوا ذل الطاعة فجعلوا الأعمال الطاهرة والأقوال الظاهرة من البدائع التي وردت بها الشرائع وقر آذانهم والحق تحت أقدامهم وأما الثاني: فلتستأنس طبائعهم إلى البرهان كذا في شرح إشراق الحكمة ومؤلف المنطق ومدونه أرسطو انتهى. ما في كشاف اصطلاحات الفنون.
ولشيخنا الإمام العلامة قاضي القضاة محمد بن علي الشوكاني رسالة في هذا الباب سماه أمنية المتشوق في حكم المنطق قال فيها:
الخلاصة في ذلك أنه ذهب إلى لزوم تعلم المنطق الغزالي وجماعة.
وذهب إلى تكريهه قوم.
وقال بإباحته جمع جم وصرح بتحريمه جماعة.
قال السيوطي في الحاوي: المنطق هو: فن خبيث مذموم يحرم الاشتغال به مبني بعض ما فيه على القول بالهيولي الذي هو كفر يجر إلى الفلسفة والزندقة. وليس له ثمرة دينية أصلا بل ولا دنيوية نص على جميع ما ذكرته أئمة الدين وعلماء الشريعة.
فأول من نص على ذلك الإمام الشافعي ونص عليه من أصحابه إمام المحرمين والغزالي في آخر أمره وابن الصباغ صاحب الشامل وابن القشيري ونصر المقدسي والعماد بن يونس وحفيده والسلفي وابن بندار وابن عساكر وابن الأثير وابن الصلاح وابن دقيق العيد والبرهان الجعبري وأبو حيان والشرف الدمياطي والذهبي والطيبي والملوي والأسنوي والأذرعي والولي العراقي والشرف المقري قال: وأفتى به شيخنا قاضي القضاة شرف الدين المناوي.
ونص عليه من أئمة المالكية ابن أبي زيد صاحب الرسالة والقاضي أبو بكر بن العربي وأبو بكر الطرطوسي وأبو الوليد الباجي وأبو طالب المكي صاحب قوت القلوب وأبو الحسن بن الحصار وأبو عامر بن الربيع وأبو الحسن بن حبيب وأبو حبيب المالقي وابن المنير وابن رشد وابن أبي حمزة وعامة أهل المغرب.
ونص عليه من الأئمة الحنفية: أبو سعيد السيرافي والسراج القزويني وألف في ذمه كتابا سماه نصيحة المسلم المشفق لمن ابتلى بعلم المنطق.
ونصل عليه من أئمة الحنابلة: ابن الجوزي وسعد الدين الحارثي والتقي ابن تيمية وألف في ذمه ونقض قواعده مجلدا كبيرا اسمه نصيحة ذوي الإيمان في الرد على منطق اليونان انتهى كلامه.
ومن عرف معنى الهيولي الذي جعله سببا لتحريم هذا الفن لابتناء بعضه عليه. علم أن السيوطي رحمه الله تعالى في هذا الفن ناقة ولا جمل ورجل ولا حمل فهو معذور. وقد قال بقول هؤلاء جماعة من أهل البيت وابن حزم الظاهري قال في الجوهرة: وقد فرط الغزالي وأفرط. وأما تفريطه: فكونه زعم أنه لا حاجة إلى علم الكلام.
وأما إفراطه: فلأنه شرط للمجتهد ما لم يشترط أحد من علماء الإسلام معرفة صناعة المنطق ولهذا قال المهدي في أوائل البحر: وأما المنطق فالمحققون لا يعدونه لإمكان البرهان دونه يعني لا يعدونه من علوم الاجتهاد.
وفي منهاج القرشي: أن الفلاسفة وضعوا علم المنطق خديعة وتوصلا إلى إبطال مسائل التوحيد لأنهم جعلوا قياس الغائب على الشاهد ظنيا وجميع مسائل التوحيد مبنية عليه فتوصلوا بهذا إلى أن الكلام في إثبات الصانع وصفاته ظني لا يمكن العلم به وتوصلا إلى إبطال مسائل العدل لأنهم جعلوا الحكم بقبح المظلم والكذب ونحو ذلك والحكم بحسن العدل ووجوب رد الوديعة وشكر المنعم ونحو ذلك أمورا مشهورات مسلمات ليس فيها إلا ظن ضعيف فلا يحكم الإنسان بقبح الظلم إلا لرقة قلبه أو الحمية أو لمحبة التعاون على المعاش ونحو ذلك
فتوصلوا بذلك إلى إبطال العدل والوعيد والشرائع وتكلفوا للتوصل إلى هذه الخديعة فنا من أدق الفنون والبراهين الحاصلة عن أشكالهم نوع واحد من أنواع العلوم وهو إلحاق التفصيل بالجملة وهو أقل العلوم كلفة وإن لم يكن ضروريا كمن يعلم أن كل ظلم قبيح ثم يعلم في وقت معين أنه ظلم فإنه يعلم أن هذا المعين قبيح إلحاقا للتفصيل بالجملة ولا يحتاج إلى إيراد مقدمتين في شكل مخصوص انتهى.
قال القاضي علي بن عبد الله بن رادع: ولقد عرفت صحة ما ذكره في المنهاج بسماعي لمعظم كتب المنطق كالرسالة الشمسية وشرحها وغيرهما ووجدت ما يذكرونه في أشكالهم لا فائدة فيه إلى آخر ما قال في شرحه للأثمار ولقد عجبت من قول هذا القاضي حيث قال: بسماعي لمعظم كتب المنطق ثم تكلم بعد ذلك بكلام يشعر بعدم معرفته لأول بحث من مباحث الرسالة الشمسية وكثيرا من يظن أنه قد عرف علم المنطق وهو لا يعرفه لأنه علم دقيق لا يفتح هذه الإشكالات الباردة.
قال ابن رادع في شرح الأثمار: روي عن المؤلف أيده الله أنه قال: إن العلماء المتقدمين كانوا إذا اطلعوا على شيء من ألفاظ الفلاسفة في أي كلام يرد عليهم اكتفوا في رده وإبطاله بكون فيه شيء من عبارة الفلاسفة ولم يتشاغلوا ببيان بطلانه وإن كثيرا من العلماء المتقدمين وكثيرا من المتأخرين نهوا عن الخوض فيه أشد النهي.
وصنف الشيخ جلال الدين السيوطي كتابا سماه القول المشرق في تحريم الاشتغال بالمنطق ولم يشتغل من اشتغل من المتأخرين إلا لما كثر التعبير بقواعده من المخالفين واستعانوا بالخوض فيه على تيسير الرد عليهم بالطريق التي سلكوها وكان الأولى السلوك في طريقة المتقدمين لأن قواعد التعبير بعبارة المنطق كثيرة الغلط وخارجة عن عبارة الكتاب والسنة واللسان العربي مع أنه مفسدة في كل من الأديان وقد روي أن بعض الخلفاء العباسيين لما طلب الفلاسفة ترجم علم المنطق باللغة العربية شاور كبيرا لهم فقال: ترجموه لهم فإن علمنا هذا لا يدخل في دين إلا أفسده.
قال المؤلف رحمه الله: وقد وجد ذلك الكلام صحيحا فإن كثيراً من المتعمقين في علم المنطق من المسلمين قد مال في كثير من الأصول إلى ما يفكر به قطعاً.
وأما غير المسلمين من أهل الكتاب فقد تفلسف أكثرهم ولهذا إن كل من خرج عن الأصول الشرعية والعقلية لا يعتمد غيره مثل الباطنية والصوفية وغيرهم انتهى.
وقال جماعة من العلماء: القول الفصل فيه أنه كالسيف يجاهد به شخص في سبيل الله ويقطع به آخر الطريق.
قال الإمام يحيى بن حمزة: إن كان الإطلاع عليه لقصد حل شبهة ونقضها جاز ذلك بل هو الواجب على علماء الإسلام.
وإن كان لغرض غير ذلك كالاقتفاء لآثارهم والتدين بدينهم فهو الكفر والفرية التي لا شبهة فيها ولا مرية وفي هذا القدر من أقوال العلماء كفاية وإن كان المجال يتسع لأضعاف أضعاف ذلك وليس مرادنا إلا الإشارة إلى الاختلاف في هذا العلم.
وأما ما هو الحق من هذه الأقوال فاعلم أنه لا يشك من له مسكة في صحة أطراف ثلاثة نذكرها هاهنا نجعلها كالمقدمة لما نرجحه.
الطرف الأول: إن علم المنطق علم كفري واضعه الحكيم أرسطاطاليس اليوناني وليس من العلوم الإسلامية بإجماع المسلمين والمنكر لهذا منكر للضرورة وليس للمشتهرين بمعرفته المكبين على تحقيق مطالبه من المسلمين كالفارابي وابن سينا ومن نحا نحوهم إلا التفهم لدقائقه والتعريف بحقائقه ولهذا قال الفارابي وهو أعلم المسلمين بهذا الفن لما قال له قائل: أيما أعلم أنت أم أرسطاطايس؟ فقال: لو أدركته لكنت من أكبر تلامذته.
الطرف الثاني: إن المتأخرين من علماء الإسلام ولا سيما أئمة الأصول والبيان والنحو والكلام والجدل من أهل البيت وغيرهم قد استكثروا من استعمال القواعد المنطقية في مؤلفاتهم في هذه الفنون وغيرها وبالغ المحقق ابن الإمام الحسين بن القاسم في شرح غاية السول فقال:
وهاهنا أبحاث يحتاج إليها.
أما الأول: فلان هذا العلم لما كان علما بكيفية الاستنباط وطريقة الاستدلال عن دلائل وكان المنطق علما بكيفية مطلق الاستدلال والاستنباط شارك المنطق وشابهه من هذه الجهة حتى كأنه جزئي من جزئيات المنطق وفرع من فروعه ولا ريب في أن إتقان الأصل وتدبره أدخل لإتقان الفرع والتبصر فيه انتهى بلفظه.
فانظر كيف جعل علم الأصول جزئيا من جزئيات المنطق وجعله فرعاً والمنطق أصلاً.
وعلى الجملة فاستعمال المتأخرين لفن المنطق في كتبهم معلوم لكل باحث ومن أنكر هذا بحث أي كتاب شاء من الكتب المتداولة بين الطلبة التي هي مدارس أهل العصر في هذه العلوم فإنه يجد معرفة ذلك متعسرة إن لم تكن متعذرة بدون علم المنطق خصوصا علم الأصول. فإنها قد جرت عادة مؤلفيه باستفتاح كتبهم بهذا العلم كابن الحاجب في مختصر المنتهى وشرحه وابن الإمام في غاية السول وشرحها وغيرهما دع عنك المطولات والمتوسطات هذه المختصرات التي هي مدرس المبتدئ في زماننا كالمعيار للإمام المهدي وشروحه والكافل لابن بهران وشروحه قد اشتمل كل واحد منها على مباحث من هذا العلم لا يعرفها إلا أربابه ومن ادعى معرفتها بدون هذا العلم فهو يعرف كذب نفسه.
الطرف الثالث: إن كتب المنطق التي يدرسها طلبة العلوم في زماننا كرسالة إيساغوجي للأبهري وشروحها التهذيب للسعد وشروحه والرسالة الشمسية وشروحها وما يشابه هذه الكتب قد هذبها أئمة الإسلام تهذيبا صفت به عن كدورات أقوال المتقدمين فلا ترى فيها إلا مباحث نفيسة ولطائف شريفة تستعين بها على دقائق العلوم وتحل بها إيجازات المائلين إلى تدقيق العبارات فإن حرمت نفسك معرفتها فلاحظ لك بين أرباب التحقيق ولا صحة لنظرك بين أهل التدقيق فاصطبر على ما تسمعه من وصفك بالبلة والبلادة وقلة الفطنة وقصور الباع.
فإن قلت: السلف أعظم قدوة وفي التشبه بهم فضيلة قلت: لا أشك في قولك ولكنه قد حال بينك وبينهم مئات من السنين وكيف لك بواحدة من أهل القرن الأول والثاني أو الثالث تأخذ عنه المعارف الصافية عن كدر المنطق هيهات هيهات حال بينك وبينهم عصور ودهور فليس في زمانك رجل يسبح في لجج مقدمات علم الكتاب والسنة إلا وعلم المنطق من أول محفوظاته ولا كتاب من على علماء الإسلام فنون هذه المقدمات إلا وقد اشتمل على أبحاث منه فأنت بخير النظرين:
أما الجهل بالعلوم التي لا سبيل إلى معرفة الكتاب والسنة إلا بها.
أو الدخول فيما دخل فيه أبناء عصرك والكون في أعدادهم ولا أقول لك: لا سبيل لك إلى كتب المتقدمين التي لم تشب بهذا لعلم بل ربما وجده منها ما يكفيك عن كتب المتأخرين ولكنك لا تجد أحدا من أبناء عصرك تأخذها عنه بسنده المتصل بطريق السماع كما تجد كتب المتأخرين كذلك ولا أقول لك أيضا: إن علم الكتاب والسنة متوقف لذاته على معرفة علم المنطق فإن دين الله أيسر من أن يستعان على معرفته بعلم كفري ولكن معرفة علم الأصول والبيان والنحو والكلام على التمام والكمال متوقفة على معرفته في عصرنا لما أخبرناك به ومعرفة كتاب الله وسنة نبيه متوقفة على معرفتها على نزاع والمتوقف على المتوقف متوقف.
وسبب التوقف بهذه الواسطة محبة المتأخرين للتدقيق والإغراب في العبارات واستعمال قواعد المناطقة واصطلاحاتهم وليتهم لم يفعلوه فإنه قد تسبب عن ذلك بعد الوصول إلى المطلوب على طالبه وطول المسافة وكثرة المشقة حتى إن طالب الكتاب والسنة بما لا يبلغ حد الكفاءة لقراءتهما إلا بعد تفويت أعوام عديدة ومعاناة معارف شديد فيذهب في تحصيل الآلات معظم مدة الــرغبة واشتغال القريحة وجودة الذكاء فيقطعه ذلك عن الوصول إلى المطلوب وقد يصل إليهما بذهن كليل وفهم عليل فيأخذ منه بأنزر نصيب وأحقر حظ وهذا هو السبب الأعظم في إهمال علمي الكتاب والسنة في المتأخرين لأنهم قد أذهبوا رواء الطلب وبهاء الــرغبة في غيرهما ولو أنفقوا فيهما بعض ما أنفقوا في آلاتهما لوجدت فيهم الحفاظ المهرة والأئمة الكملة1 والله المستعان. وحاصل البحث: أنه لم يأت من قال بتحريم علم المنطق بحجة مرضية إلا قوله أنه علم كفري ونحن نسلم ذلك ولكنا نقول: قد صار في هذه الأعصار بذلك السبب من أهم آلات العلوم حلال أو حرام بل يتوقف كثير من المعارف عليه فاشتغل به اشتغالك بفن من فنون الآلات ولا تعبأ بتشغيبات المتقدمين وبتشنيعات المقصرين وعليك بمختصرات الفن كالتهذيب والشمسية واحذر من مطولاته المستخرجة على قواعد اليونان كشفاء ابن سينا وما يشابهه من كتبه وكتاب الشفاء والإشارات وما يليهما من المطولات والمتوسطات التي خلط فيها أهلها المنطق بالحكمة اليونانية والفلسفة الكفرية يضل أكثر المشتغلين بها ويبعدهم عن الصراط السوي والهدي النبوي الذي أمرنا باتباعه بنصوص الكتاب والسنة والله تعالى أعلم بالصواب.

A2: اكفأ الإِبِلَ كَفْأَتَيْنِ He divided the camels into two equal numbers, setting apart the one half for breeding during one year, and the other half for breeding during the next. It was esteemed the best plan, by the Arabs, to leave a she-camel for one year after her breeding, without suffering the stallion to cover her; in like manner as land is left fallow for a year. (S, TA.) b2: The same is also said of sheep &c. (TA.) A3: اكفأه إِبِلَهُ وَغَنَمَهُ (S, * K, * TA) He assigned to him the profits, (K,) or the profits for a year, (S,) of his camels and his sheep or goats; (K, TA;) i.e., their hair and wool, milk, and young ones.

A6: اكفأ, (K,) inf. n. إِكْفَاءٌ, (TA,) in poetry, accord. to a commentary on the Káfee, He used as the رَوِىّ two letters having their places of utterance near to each other; as ط with د: [such is the signification of the verb accord. to general usage in the present day:] or, accord. to the Ahkám el-Asás, he changed the روىّ from ر to ل, or ل to م: or he made a similar change of one letter to another having its place of utterance near to that of the former: or it has another signification, given below, accord. to the same authority: (TA:) or he used different letters in the rhymes; (S, K;) whether letters having their places of utterance near to each other, or the contrary; (TA;) or in some م and in some ن and in some د, and in some ط, and in some ح, and in some خ, &c.; as says Az; and this is the meaning known to the Arabs: (S:) or he used different vowels in the روىّ: (Fr, S:) or i. q. أَقْوَى: (S, K:) or, accord. to the Ahkám el-Asás, it signifies either as explained above on that authority, (TA,) or he used different final inflections in the rhymes: (K:) or he changed the final vowel in the rhyme; ending one verse with ضَمَّة, and another with كَسْرَة, [which are the two vowels that resemble each other]: (TA:) [see a verse cited in the first paragraph of art. غيب:] or he impaired the end of a verse in any way. (K.) Eloquent Arabs explained the meaning of the verb in this last manner to Akh, without defining any particular kind of impairment: but one made it to consist in the use of different letters. (TA.) 5 تكفّأ It (a vessel &c.) was inverted, or turned upside-down. (TA.) See also 1, in two places. b2: تكفّأ (as also تكّفى, inf. n. تَكَفٍّ; but the original word is that with hemzeh;) He inclined forwards, in walking, as a ship inclines in her course. Mohammad is said to have walked in this manner, which is indicative of strength. (TA.) [And so] تكفّأت She (a woman) moved her body from side to side, in walking, as the tall palm-tree moves from side to side. (S.) [And] She (a ship) inclined forwards in her course. (TA.) [See an ex., voce أَعْرَبَ, in this sense; or, as implied in the S, in the sense immediately preceding.]6 تَكَافَآ They two were like, or equal, each to the other. (S, K.) b2: تَتَكَافَأُ دِمَاؤُهُمْ Their blood (i. e., the blood of the Muslims,) shall be equally retaliated, or expiated: (A 'Obeyd, S:) i. e., the noble shall have no advantage over the ignoble in the retaliation or expiation of blood. (A 'Obeyd.) 7 انكفأ He turned, or was turned, away, or back, from a thing that he desired to do; (S;) [see also 1;] he returned, or went back, or reverted. (S, K.) b2: Also, (TA,) or ↓ كَفَأَ, (K,) It (a party) became routed, defeated, or put to flight. (K, TA.) b3: See 1, in two places.8 إِكْتَفَاَ See 1. b2: اكتفأ أَهْلِيهِمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ [He carried off their families and their goods.] (TA, from a trad.; mentioned next after the explanation of كَفَأَ الإِبِلَ.) 10 استكفأه إِبِلَهُ He asked him for a year's produce of his camels; i.e., their young ones in the womb in one year; (S, TA;) or their hair and wool, milk, and young ones, of one year. (TA.) b2: استكفأه نَخْلَةً He asked him for a year's produce of a palm-tree. (TA.) كَفْءٌ and كُفْءٌ and كِفْءٌ and كُفُؤٌ see كِفَاءٌ, and for كِفْءٌ see also كَفِىْءٌ.

(Az, S, K.) Yousay أَعْطِنِى كفأةَ نَاقَتِكَ Give me the year's produce, &c., of thy she-camel. (S.) b2: b3: And, both words (tropical:) A year's produce of a palm-tree.

[of 3], and ↓ كُفْءٌ and كُفُوْءٌ [&c., as in the following examples,] Like; equal; a match.

Ibn-Ketheer and AA and Ibn-'Ámir and Ks read كُفُؤًا: Hamzeh read كُفْئًا; and, in a case of pause, كُفَا, without hemzeh. (TA,) b4: Pl. (of كُفْءٌ and كِفْءٌ, and كُفُؤٌ, and perhaps of كَفْءٌ also, MF,) أَكْفَآءٌ and (of all the above forms excepting كِفَآءٌ, MF,) كِفَآءٌ. (K.) b5: كِفَآءٌ As much as is equal to another thing.

(أَوْ أَفْسَدَ فِي آخِرِ البَيْتِ أَيَّ إِفْسَادٍ كانَ) قَالَ الأَخفش: وسأَلت العربَ الفُصحاءَ عَنهُ، فإِذا هم يَجعلونه الفسادَ فِي آخرِ الْبَيْت والاختلافَ، من غير أَنْ يَحُدُّوا فِي ذَلِك شَيْئا، إِلا أَني رأَيتُ بعضَهم يَجعله اختلافَ الْحُرُوف، فأَنشدته:
كَأَنَّ فَا قَارُورَةٍ لم تُعْفَصِ مِنْها حِجَاجَا مُقْلَةٍ لَمْ تُلْخَصِ
كَاينَّ صِيرَانَ المَهَا المُنَقِّزِ
فَقَالَ: هَذَا هُوَ الإِكفاءُ، قَالَ: وأَنشده آخرُ قَوافِيَ على حُروفٍ مُختلفةٍ، فعَابِه، وَلَا أَعلمه إِلاَّ قَالَ لَهُ: قد أَكْفَأْتَ. وَحكى الجوهريُّ عَن الفرَّاءِ: أَكفَأَ الشاعرُ، إِذا خَالف بَين حَركات الرَّوِيِّ، وَهُوَ مِثْلُ الإِقواءِ، قَالَ ابنُ جِنّي: إِذا كَانَ الإِكفاءُ فِي الشّعْرِ مَحْمُولا على الإِكفاء فِي غيرِه، وَكَانَ وَضْعُ الإِكفاء إِنما هُوَ للخلافِ ووقوعِ الشيْءِ على غيرِ وَجْهِهِ لمْ يُنْكَرْ أَنْ يُسَمُّوا بِهِ الإِقواءَ فِي اختلافِ حُرُوف الرَّوِيّ جَمِيعًا، لأَن كلَّ واحدٍ مِنْهُمَا واقعٌ على غيرِ استواءٍ، قَالَ الأَخفش: إِلا أَني رأَيتهم إِذا قَرُبتْ مَخَارجُ الحُروف، أَو كَانَت من مَخرَجٍ واحدٍ ثمَّ اشتَدَّ تَشابُهُمَا لم يَفْطُنْ لَهَا عَامَّتُهم، يَعْنِي عامَّةَ العربِ، وَقد عَابَ الشيخُ أَبو مُحَمَّد بن بَرِّيَ على الجوهريِّ قولَه: الإِكفاءُ فِي الشّعْر أَن يُخالَف بَين قَوَافِيه فتَجْعَل بعضَها ميماً وبعضَها طاءً، فَقَالَ: صوابُ هَذَا أَن يَقُول: وبعضَها نُوناً، لأَن الإِكفاءَ إِنما يكون فِي الْحُرُوف المتقاربة فِي المَخْرَجِ، وأَمَّا الطاءُ فليستُ من مَخْرَج المِيمِ. والمُكْفَأُ فِي كلامِ الْعَرَب هُوَ المقلوبُ، وإِلى هَذَا يَذهبون، قَالَ الشَّاعِر:
وَلَمَّا أَصَابَتْنِي مِنَ الدَّهْرِ نَزْلَةٌ
شُغِلْتُ وَأَلْهَى النَّاسَ عَنِّي شُؤُونُهَا
إِذَا الفَارِغُ المَكْفِيُّ مِنْهُمْ دَعَوْتُهُ
أَبَرَّ وَكَانَتْ دَعْوَةً تَسْتَدِيمُهَا
فجَعَل الميمَ مَعَ النونِ لشَبهها بهَا، لأَنهما يَخرُجانِ من الخَياشيمِ، قَالَ: وأَخبرني من أَثِقُ بِهِ من أَهلِ العلمِ أَن ابْنَةَ أَبِي مُسافِعٍ قالتْ تَرثي أَباها (وقُتِلَ) وَهُوَ يَحْمِي جِيفَةَ أَبي جَهْلِ بنِ هِشامِ:
وَمَا لَيْثُ غَرِيفٍ ذُو
أَظَافِيرَ وَإِقْدَامْ
كَحِبِّي إِذْ تَلاَقَوْا
وَوُجُوهُ القَوْمِ أَقْرَانْ وأَنتَ الطَّاعِنُ النَّجْلاَ

وَبِالْكَفِّ حُسَامٌ صَا
رِمٌ أَبْيَضُ خَذَّامْ
وَقَدْ تَرْحَلُ بِالرَّكْبِ
فَمَا تُخْنِى بِصُحْبَانْ
قَالَ: جَمَعوا بَين الميمِ والنونِ لقُرْبهما، وَهُوَ كثيرٌ، قَالَ: وَسمعت من الْعَرَب مِثل هَذَا مَا لَا أُحْصِى، قَالَ الأَخفش: وبالجُمْلة فإِنّ الإِكفاءَ المخالفةُ، قَالَ فِي قَوْله:
{مُكْفَأً غَيْرَ سَاجِعِ
} المُكْفَأُ هَاهُنَا الَّذِي لَيْسَ بِمُوافِقٍ. وَفِي حديثِ النَّابِغة أَنه كَانَ {يُكْفِىءُ فِي شِعْرِه، وَهُوَ أَن يخالِف بَين حركاتِ الرَّوِيّ رفعا ونصباً وجرًّا، قَالَ: وَهُوَ كالإِقْواءِ، وَقيل: هُوَ أَن يُخَالف بَين قَوافِيه فَلَا يَلْزَم حرفا وَاحِدًا كَذَا فِي (اللِّسَان) .
(و) أَكفأَت (الإِبِلُ: كَثُرَ نِتَاجُهَا) وَكَذَلِكَ الْغنم، كَمَا يُفيده سِياقُ المُحكم (و) أَكفأَ (إِبِلَهُ) وغَنَمَه (فُلاناً: جَعَلَ لَهُ مَنَافِعَهَا) أَوْبَارَها. وأَصوَافَهَا وأَشعارَها وأَلبانَها وأَولاَدَها.
(} والكَفْأَةُ) بِالْفَتْح (ويُضَمُّ) أَوَّلُه (: حَمْلُ النَّخْلِ سَنَتَهَا، و) هُوَ (فِي الأَرْضِ: زِرَاعَةُ سَنَتِهَا) قَالَ الشَّاعِر:
غُلْبٌ مَجَالِيحُ عِنْدَ المَحْلِ كُفْأَتُهَا
أَشطانُهَا فِي عَذَابِ البَحْرِ تَسْتَبقُ
أَراد بِهِ النَّخيلَ، وأَراد بأَشطانِها عُروقَا، والبَحْرُ هُنَا الماءُ الكثيرُ، لأَن النخْلَ لَا يَشْرب فِي البَحْرِ، وَقَالَ أَبو زيد: {استكْفَأْتُ فلَانا نَخْلَه إِذا سأْلْتَه ثَمَرها سَنَةً، فَجعل للنخْلِ كَفْأَةً، وَهُوَ ثَمَرةُ سَنَتِها، شُبِّهَتْ بِكَفْأَةِ الإِبل، قلت: فَيكون من الْمجَاز.
(و) الكَفْأَة (فِي الإِبِلِ) والغَنم (نِتاجُ عَامِهَا) } واستكْفأْتُ فُلاناً إِبلَه، أَي سأَلْتُه نِتَاجَ إِبلهِ سَنَةً! فأَكْفَأَنِيهَا، أَي أَعطاني لَبَنَها وَوَبَرَها وأَولادَها مِنْهُ، تَقول: أَعطِني كُفْأَةَ ناقَتك، تضمُّ وتفتَحُ، وَقَالَ غَيره: ونَتَجَ الإِبلَ {كَفُأَتَيْنِ، وأَكفَأَها إِذا جَعلها كُفْأَتينِ، وَهُوَ أَن يَجعلها نِصْفَيْنِ يَنْتِجُ كُلَّ عامٍ نِصْفاً وَيَدَعُ نُصْفاً، كَمَا يصنعُ بالأَرض بالزِّراعة، فإِذا كَانَ الْعَام المُقْبِل أَرسلَ الفحلَ فِي النَّصف الَّذِي لم يُرسله فِيهِ من العامِ الفارِطِ لأَن أَجْوَد الأَوقات عِنْد العَرب فِي نِتاجِ الإِبل أَن تُتْرَك النَّاقة بعد نِتاجِها سَنةً لَا يُحْمَلُ عَلَيْهَا الفَحْلُ ثمَّ تُضرَب إِذا أَرادَتِ الفَحْلَ، وَفِي (الصِّحَاح) : لأَن أَفضلَ النِّتاجِ أَن يُحْمَلَ على الإِبلِ الفُحُولَةُ عَاما وتُتْرَكَ عَاما، كَمَا يُصْنَع بالأَرضِ فِي الزِّراعة، وأَنشد قولَ ذِي الرُّمَّة:
تَرَى كُفْأَتَيْهَا تُنفِضان وَلَمْ يَجِدْ
لَهَا ثِيلَ سَقْبٍ فِي النِّتَاجَيْنِ لاَمِسُ
وَفِي (الصِّحَاح) : (كِلاَ} كَفْأَتَيْهَا) يَعْنِي أَنها نُتِجت كُلُّها إِنَاثاً، وَهُوَ محمودٌ عِنْدهم، قَالَ كعبُ بن زُهَيْر:

(JK. [See 3.]) لَاغَرْوَ signifies لَا عَجَبَ [meaning There is no case of wonder], (Msb, K, and Ham p. 603,) the enunciative of لَا being suppressed, as though the saying were لَاغَرْوَ فِى الدُّنْيَا [there is no case of wonder in the present world] or مَوْجُودٌ [existing]; (Ham;) as also ↓ لَا غَرْوَى: (K:) or لَيْسَ بِعَجَبٍ

(Har p. 488.) And the saying وَلَا غَرْوَ أَنْ يَحْذُو الفَتَى حَذْوَ وَالِدِهْ means And it is not a case of wonder (لَيْسَ بِعَجَبٍ), i. e. there is no wondering (لَا عَجَبَ), that the [young] man should follow the example of his father, doing the like of his deed.

غَرَآءٌ [A state of attachment, or fondness, &c.;] the subst. from غَرِىَ بِهِ [q. v.] as meaning أُولِعَ بِهِ: (S, Msb, TA:) or, accord. to the M, this is an inf. n.; and the subst. accord. to the K is ↓ غَرْوَى. (TA.) غِرَآءٌ and ↓ غَرًا (S, Mgh, Msb, K) [Glue;] a substance with which a thing is made to adhere, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) obtained from fish, (S, Mgh,) or made from skins, and sometimes made from fish: (Msb:) or the substance with which one smears; (Fr, K, TA;) and thus the former word is expl. by Sh: (TA:) or a certain thing that is extracted from fish: (K:) [and mucilage, which by concretion becomes gum; the former word is used in this sense in the K voce صَمْغٌ. q. v.:] and it is said that the trees [app. that produce the mucilage termed غِرَآء, otherwise [know not what can be meant thereby,] are [called] غَرًى [or ↓ غَرًا]; but AHn says that certain persons pronounce the word thus, but it is not the approved way. (TA.) A2: رَجَلٌ غِرَآءٌ means A man who has not a beast [to carry him] (لَا دَابَّةَ لَهُ). (K.) غَرِىٌّ Made to adhere; syn. مُلْصَقٌ.

(See also مَغْرُوٌّ.) b4: ] And The goodly, or beautiful, (S, K, TA,) in respect of face, (TA,) of mankind, (S, K, TA,) and the goodly, or beautiful, of others than mankind: and [particularly] a goodly building: (K, TA:) and hence. b5: الغَرِيَّانِ Two well-known buildings, in El-Koofeh, (K, TA,) at Eth-Thaweeyeh, where is the tomb of 'Alee, the Prince of the Faithful, asserted to have been built by one of the Kings of El-Heereh: (TA:) or two tall buildings, said to be the tombs of Málik and Akeel, the two cup-companions of Jedheemeh ElAbrash; thus called because En-Noamán Ibn-El-Mundhir used to smear them (كَانَ يُغَرِّيهِمَا) with the blood of him whom he slew when he went forth in the day of his evil fortune [or ill omen, the story of which is well known], (S, TA.) b6: الغَرِىُّ is also the name of A certain idol [or object of idolatrous worship, app. from what here follows, a mass of stone, like as اللَّاتُّ is said to have been by some, and like as were several other objects of worship of the pagan Arabs], with which [probably meaning with the blood on which] one used to smear himself, and upon which one used to sacrifice [victims]. (TA.) b7: And غَرِىٌّ signifies also A certain red dye. (TA.) غُرَاوَى i. q. رَغْوَةٌ [i. e. Froth]: (K, TA: [الغُراءىٰ in the CK is a mistranscription:]) app. formed by transposition; for رُغَاوَى has been mentioned [in art. رغو] as syn. with رَغْوَةٌ: (TA:) pl. with fet-h [i. e. غَرَاوَى]. (K, TA.) هُوَ مُغْرًى بِهِ, from أَغْرَاهُ بِهِ [q. v.], He is made to become attached to it, or fond of it; &c. (TA.) مَغْرُوٌّ [pass. part. n. of غَرَا, q. v.; Glued, &c. b2: Hence, for سَهْمٌ مَغْرُوٌّ, lit. A glued arrow, meaning an arrow having the feathers glued upon it, i. e.] a feathered arrow. (Meyd in explanation of what here follows.) It is said in a prov., أَدْرِكْنِى وَلَوْ بِأَحَدِ المُغْرُوَّيْنِ, meaning [Reach thou me, though] with one of the two [feathered] arrows: or, as Th says, with an arrow or with a spear: (S:) El-Mufaddal says, there were two brothers, of the people of Hejer, a people to whom the Arabs ascribe stupidity, and one of those two rode an intractable she-camel, and the one that did not ride had with him a how, and his name was Huneyn; so the one that was riding called to him, and said, يَا هُنَيْنُ وَيْلَكَ انْزِلْنِى وَلَوْ بِأَحَدِ المَغْرُوَّيْنِ, [in which انزلنى seems to be a mistranscription for ادركنى,] meaning, with his arrow; whereupon his brother shot at him and laid him prostrate; and his saying became a prov., applied on an occasion of necessity, or difficulty, and of the after failing of stratagem. (Meyd.) One says also قَوْسٌ مَغْرُوَّةٌ [A glued bow] (S, Msb, K) and ↓ مَغْرِيَّةٌ. (S, K.) قَوْسٌ مَغْرِيَّةٌ: see what next precedes.

1 سَكَنَ, (S, Mgh, L, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (L,) inf. n. سُكُونٌ, (S, Mgh, L, Msb, K,) said of a thing, (S, L,) of a thing that moves, (Mgh, Msb,) It was, or became, still, motionless, stationary, in a state of rest, quiet, calm, or unruffled, (هَدَأَ, Abu-l-'Abbás, L, or قَرَّ, K,) after motion; (Abu-l-'Abbás, L;) its motion [ceased, or] went away; (L, Msb;) and in like manner said of a man, and of a beast: (Abu-l-'Abbás, L:) and said of anything such as wind and heat and cold and the like; of rain; [and of pain;] and of anger; [&c.;] it was, or became, still, calm, tranquillized, appeased, allayed, assuaged, or quelled; [it died away, passed away, or ceased to be: and it remitted, or subsided; became alleviated, light, slight, or gentle:] and said of a man [or beast or the like, and of a voice or sound], he [or it] was, or became, still, or silent. (L.) [Hence,] one says, سَكَنَ الدَّمْعُ, and الدَّمُ, meaning رَقَأَ [The tears, and the blood, stopped, or ceased to flow]. (S and Mgh in art. رقاٌ.) [And one says of heat, and cold, and pain, &c., سَكَنَ عَنْهُ It passed away from him; quitted him. And سَكَنَتِ النَّارُ The fire became extinguished; or became allayed or assuaged; subsided; or ceased to flame or blaze or burn fiercely,] b2: [Hence also, It (a letter) was or became, quiescent; i. e., without a vowel immediately following it; contr. of تَحَرَّكَ.] b3: And سَكَنَ إِلَيْهِ, (Msb, [where the aor. is said to be سَكِنَ, but this is either a mistake or rare, for the aor. accord. to common usage is سَكُنَ, as in the Kur vii.] 189 and xxx. 20,]) inf. n. سُكُونٌ (Mgh, Msb) and سَكَنٌ, (Msb,) He trusted to it, or relied upon it, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; i. q. رَكَنَ إِلَيْهِ; (S and K &c. in art. ركن;) and اِطْمَأَنَّ إِلَيْهِ; (TA in art. طمن;) [and اِعْتَمَدَ عَلَيْهِ; and وَثِقَ بِهِ; &c.; and he inclined to it; syn. مَالَ إِلَيْهِ; and became familiar with it; syn. اِسُتَأْنَسَ بِهِ, and أَلِفَ; agreeably with explanations here following;] namely, a thing: (Msb:) and سَكَنَ إِلَيْهَا, aor. ـُ he trusted to her, or relied upon her, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; &c., as above; syn. اِطْمَأَنَّ إِلَيْهَا; (Ksh and Bd in vii. 189, and Ksh in xxx. 20;) and مَالَ إِلَيْهَا; (Ksh in vii. 189, and the same and Bd in xxx. 20;) and اِسْتَأْنَسَ بِهَا, and أَلِفَ; (Bd in the same two places;) namely, his wife. (Ksh and Bd.) b4: And سَكَنَ الَّدارَ, (S, MA, Mgh, L, Msb, K,) and فِى الدَّارِ, (Mgh, Msb,) and بِالمَكَانِ, (L,) aor. ـُ (L, Msb, JM,) inf. n. سُكْنَى (MA, Mgh, L, JM) and سُكُونٌ (MA, L) and سُكْنٌ, (MA,) or ↓ سُكْنَى is a simple subst., and the inf. n. is سكن, (Msb, [accord. to which the latter is app. سَكَنٌ, for it is there said that the verb in this case is like طَلَبَ, the unaugmented inf. n. of which is طَلَبٌ, but this inf. n. سَكَنُ I have not found elsewhere, and what is generally used as the inf. n. or quasi-inf. n. of the verb in this case is ↓ سُكْنَى,]) or ↓ سُكْنَى is a subst. in the sense of إِسْكَانٌ, as expl. below, (Mgh,) [or rather it is also a subst. in this sense,] He inhabited, or dwelt or abode in, the house [and the place]. (MA, Mgh.) وَلَهُ مَا سَكَنَ فِى اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ, in the Kur [vi. 13], is from السُّكْنَى (Ksh, Bd) or from السُّكُونُ: (Bd:) if from the former, (Ksh, Bd,) it signifies To Him belongeth what taketh up its abode in the night and the day; (IAar, Ksh, * Bd, * L, Jel;) meaning, what the night and the day include within their limits: (Ksh, * Bd:) or, if from السُّكُونُ, (Bd,) what is still, or motionless, (Abu-l-'Abbás, Bd, L,) and what moves; one of the two contraries being mentioned as sufficient [to show what is intended] without the other; (Bd;) app. meaning the creation, collectively, or all created beings. (Abu-l-'Abbás, L.) b5: And سَكَنَ, (L, K,) aor. ـُ (K,) He became such as is termed مِسْكِين [q. v.]; (L, K;) as also سَكُنَ, (K,) and ↓ اسكن, and ↓ تسكّن, and ↓ تَمَسْكَنَ: (L, K:) and [thus it means particularly] he was, or became, lowly, humble, or submissive; and low, abject, abased, and weak; as also ↓ اسكن, (L,) and ↓ تسكّن, and ↓ تَمَسْكَنَ; (S, * L;) the former of these being the regular form, (S, L,) and the more common and more chaste; (L;) the latter of them anomalous, [from المِسْكِينُ,] like تَمَنْدَلَ from المِنْدِيلُ, and تَمَدْرَعَ from المِدْرَعَةُ; (S, L;) and ↓ استكن, (L, Msb,) and ↓ اِسْتَكَانَ, of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ (L, Msb, K) from المَسْكَنَةُ (L, K) or from السُّكُونُ, (Msb,) with ا added, (L, Msb,) the vowel of the medial radical letter being thus rendered full in sound, (L, Msb, K,) or it is of the measure اِسْتَفْعَلَ from الكِينَةُ, signifying “ evil state or condition,” (Msb,) or from الكَيْنُ signifying “ the [piece of] flesh in the interior of the vulva,” because he who is lowly and abject is the most obscure of mankind. (L. [See also arts.

كون and كين.]) 2 سكّنهُ, (S, L, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَسْكِينٌ, (S, L, K,) He, or it, caused it to be, or become, still, motionless, stationary, in a state of rest, quiet, calm, or unruffled; (S, * L, Msb, K;) namely, a thing: (S, L, Msb:) [and caused it, namely, anything such as wind, and heat, and cold, and the like, as rain, and pain, and anger, to be, or become, still, or calm; stilled, calmed, tranquillized, appeased, allayed, assuaged, or quelled, it; caused it to die away, pass away, or cease to be: and caused it to remit, or subside; to become alleviated, light, slight, or gentle: and caused him, and it, namely, a man or beast or the like, and a voice or sound, to become still, or silent: (see 1, first sentence:)] and ↓ اسكنهُ signifies the same. (L.) [Hence,] one says of God, سكّن دَمْعَهُ, meaning أَرْقَأَهُ [He caused his tears to stop, or cease flowing]. (S and TA in art. رقأ.) b2: [and hence, He made it (a letter) quiescent; i. e., made it to be without a vowel immediately following it; contr. of حَرَّكَهُ.]

A2: تَسْكِينٌ also signifies The straightening a cane, or spear, (صَعْدَة,) with fire [which is termed السَّكَن]. (IAar, L, K.) A3: and The constantly riding a light and swift ass which is termed سُكَيْن. (IAar, L, K.) 3 ساكنهُ, inf. n. مُسَاكَنَةٌ, i. q. جَاوَرَهُ [meaning He lived in his neighbourhood, or near to him]. (TA in art. جور.) 4 اسكن: see 1, near the end, in two places.

A2: اسكنهُ: see 2, first sentence. b2: [Hence,] said of poverty, It made him to be little, or seldom, in motion. (Aboo-Is-hák, L, K.) b3: And, said of God, He made him to be such as is termed مِسْكِين [q. v.]. (L, K.) b4: And اسكنهُ الدَّارَ, (S, L, Msb, K,) or المَنْزِلَ, (MA,) He made him [or gave him] to inhabit the house, or abode; (S, * MA, L, * Msb, * K; *) he lodged him therein. (MA.) 5 تسكّن, said of a man, is from السَّكِينَةُ [i. e. He had, or possessed, or affected, the quality thus termed; meaning he was, or became, or affected to be, calm, tranquil, grave, staid, steady, or sedate; &c.]. (L.) See also Q. Q. 2, below: and see 1, above, near the end, in two places.8 استكن, and its var. or syn. اِسْتَكَانَ: see 1, near the end. Q. Q. 2 تَمَسْكَنَ He affected to be like, or he imitated, such as are termed مَسَاكِين [pl. of مِسْكِينٌ, q. v.]. (IAth, L.) b2: See also 1, near the end, in two places. You say, تَمَسْكَنَ لِرَبِهِ He humbled, or abased, himself to his Lord; or addressed himself with earnest, or energetic, supplication to Him: and ↓ تسكّن is like تَمَسْكَنَ. (Lh, L.) سَكْنٌ, a quasi-pl. n. of ↓ سَاكِنٌ, like as شَرْبٌ is of شَارِبٌ, called by Akh a pl., (L,) The inhabitants, people, or family, of a house or tent; (S, L, K;) a household. (L.) b2: And The collective body of the people of a tribe: one says, تَحَمَّلَ السَّكْنُ فَذَهَبُوا [The collective body of the people of the tribe bound the loads, or burdens, upon their beasts, and went away]. (Lh, L.) b3: See also سَكَنٌ. b4: And see the paragraph here next following.

سُكْنٌ: see سُكْنَى. b2: And see also مَسْكَنٌ, in three places. b3: Also, (L, JM, [thus written in both, and expressly said in the latter to be “ with damm,”]) or ↓ سَكَنٌ, (thus in copies of the K,) or ↓ سَكْنٌ, (thus in the CK,) [but the first is app. the right,] Food, aliment, or victuals, syn. قُوتٌ; (L, K, JM;) like نُزْلٌ meaning “ food (طَعَام, L, JM) of a party alighting to partake of it,” and said to be called سُكْنٌ because by means of it a place is inhabited, like as the نُزْل of an army means the “ appointed rations of an army alighting at a place. ” (L.) سَكَنٌ A thing, (S, L, Msb, K,) of any kind, (S, L,) to which one trusts, or upon which one relies, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; (S, L, Msb, K;) and in like manner, a person, or persons, to whom one trusts, &c.: applied in this sense to a family, or wife, (L, Msb,) as well as to property, (Msb,) &c.: (L, Msb:) and hence [particularly] signifying a wife. (L.) One says, [app. using it in this sense, as seems to be indicated by the context in the S,] فُلَانٌ أْبْنُ السَّكَنِ [Such a one is the son of the سَكَن]; and As used to say ↓ السَّكْنِ: (S, L:) accord. to Ibn-Habeeb, one says سَكَن and سَكْن. (L.) And it is said in the Kur [vi. 96], جَعَلَ

أْللَّيْلَ سَكَنًا He hath made, or appointed, the night to be a resource for ease, or quiet. (L.) And in the same [ix. 104], إِنَّ صَلَوَاتِكَ سَكَنٌ لَهُمْ, i. e. [Verily thy prayers for forgiveness are] a cause of ease, or quiet, to them. (Zj, L.) [And ↓ سُكْنَةٌ seems to have a similar meaning: for] ISh says, تَغْطِيَةُ الوَجْهِ عِنْدَ النَّوْمِ سُكْنَةٌ, app. [The covering of the face on the occasion of sleep is a cause of ease, or quiet,] in the case of loneliness, or of fear arising therefrom.

See the latter word, in three places. b3: And Fire; [app. first applied thereto as being a cause of ease, or comfort;] (S, L, K;) as in the saying [of a rájiz], وَسَكَنٍ تُوقَدُ فِىمِظَلَّهْ [And a fire kindled in a large tent of hair-cloth, or in a booth, or shed], (S, L,) describing himself as driven to have recourse thereto by the night, and by a moist wind, or a wind cold with moisture; and [afterwards used without any allusion to its being a cause of ease, or comfort,] as in the saying of another, describing a cane, أَقَامَهَا بِسَكَنٍ وَأَدْهَانْ meaning He straightened it with fire and oils.

Rest ye, or remain ye, at your places, (S, L,) or in your places of habitation or abode, (S, L, K,) for emigration has [ended, having] become no longer needful. (L.) And one says, النَّاسُ عَلَى سَكِنَاتِهِمْ, [virtually] meaning, accord. to Fr, The people are in their right state: (S, L:) and in like manner is expl. the saying, تَرَكْتُهُمْ عَلَى سَكِنَاتِهِمْ and ↓ سَكَنَاتِهِمْ and نَزَلَاتِهِمْ; but the approved explanation is, [I left them] at their places of habitation, which is that of Th; or, as in the M, their places of alighting, or abode. (L.) b2: Also The part, of the neck, which is the resting-place of the head. (S, L, K.) So in the saying, (S, L,) attributed to several poets, (L,) بِضَرْبِ يُزِيلُ الهَامَ عَنْ سَكِنَاتِهِ [With a smiting that removes the heads from their resting-places on the necks]. (S, L.) سُكْنَى is an inf. n. of سَكَنَ in the phrase سَكَنَ الدَّارَ: (MA, Mgh, L, JM:) or a simple subst. therefrom: (Msb:) or a subst. in the sense of إِسْكَانٌ, like رُقْبَى in the sense of إِرْقَابٌ: (Mgh:) see 1, in three places: or it is a subst. (S, L, K) also (L) from أَسْكَنَهُ الدَّارَ, (S, L, K,) like as عُتْبَى is from إِعْتَابٌ, (S, L,) and so is ↓ سَكَنٌ, (Lh, L, K,) [which is app. mentioned in the Msb as an inf. n. of the former verb,] signifying, as also ↓ سُكْنٌ, [so in one place, as on the authority of Lth, in the L, and said in the MA to be, like سُكْنَى, an inf. n. of the verb first mentioned above,] The making [or giving] a man a place, or an abode, to inhabit, without rent; (L, and Ham p. 400 in explanation of the first of these words;) the term سُكْنَى being similar to عُمْرَى. (L.) b2: See also مَسْكَنٌ, in five places.

سُكَيْنٌ An ass light, or active, and quick, or swift: and سُكَيْنَةٌ is applied to a she-ass (L, K) in the same sense. (L.) b2: Hence the latter is used as a name for (assumed tropical:) A girl, or young woman, or a female slave, that is of a light, or an active, spirit. (L.) b3: The former also signifies A wild ass. (L.) b4: And السُّكَيْنَةُ is the name of The gnat that entered into the nose of Numrood [or Nimrod].

(Har p. 62.) One says of a man who is calm or tranquil, or grave &c., عَلَيْهِ السَّكِينَةُ [Upon him is resting, or abiding, calmness &c.]. (L.) And it is said in a trad., respecting the Prophet, on the occasion of the coming down of revelation, فَغَشِيَتْهُ السَّكِينَةُ, meaning And calmness, or tranquillity, and غَيْبَة [i. e., as here used, absence of mind from self and others by its being exclusively occupied by the contemplation of divine things], came upon him.

(Bd.) In a trad. of' Alee, respecting the building. of the Kaabeh, it is said, فَأَرْسَلَ اللّٰه إِلَيْهِ السَّكِينَةَ, meaning [And God sent to him] the wind swift in its passage. (L.) سُكَيْنَةٌ fem. of سُكَيْنٌ [q. v.]. (L, K. *) الطُّرَّةُ السُّكَيْنِيَّةُ [The hair over the forehead (of a girl or woman) that is cut with a straight, or even, edge, or with two such edges one above the other, so as to form a kind of border, after the fashion of Sukeyneh,] is so called in relation to Sukeyneh the daughter of El-Hoseyn. (S, L, K.) سَكَّانٌ A maker of سَكَاكِين [or knives], (ISd, L, K, *) pl. of سِكِينٌ; (ISd, L;) as also ↓ سَكَاكِينِىٌّ, (ISd, L, K,) which latter is held by ISd to be post-classical, being formed from the pl., whereas by rule it should be formed from the sing. (L.) سُكَّانٌ The ذَنَب, (Lth, S, MA, Mgh, L,) [i. e.] the rudder, (MA, KL, PS,) of a ship or boat, (Lth, S, MA, Mgh, L,) by means of which it is rightly directed, (Lth, Mgh, * L,) and made still, or steady; (Mgh, L;) its خَدْف; (AA, L;) i. q. خَيْزُرَانٌ and كَوْثَلٌ [meaning the same, or its tiller]: (A 'Obeyd, L:) it is an Arabic word. (L.) Hence the saying of Tarafeh, (L,) likening to it the elevated neck of a she-camel, as being long, and quick in motion, (EM p. 73,) [and thus app. applying it to the upper and narrow part of a rudder,] كَسُكَّانِ بُوصِىٍ بِدِجْلَةَ مُصْعِدِ (L, EM,) i. e. Like the سُكَّان of a vessel of the sort called بُوصِىّ [ascending the Tigris]. (EM.) A2: Also pl. of سَاكِنٌ [q. v.]. (L, Msb.) سِكِّينٌ a word of well-known meaning; (S, Msb, K;) i. e. A knife; (MA, PS;) i. q. مُدْيَةٌ; (L;) as also ↓ سِكِّينَةٌ, (ISd, L, K,) a dial. var., (ISd, L,) occurring in a trad., but the former is that which is commonly known: (L:) so called because it stills the animals slaughtered with it: (Az, L, Msb:) of the measure فِعِّيلٌ: (IDrd, L, Msb:) or, accord. to some, its ن is augmentative, so that it is of the measure فِعْلِينٌ: (Msb:) it is masc., and sometimes fem.: (Zj, IAmb, * L, Msb, K: *) not heard as fem. by IAar: (L:) held to be only masc. by Az and As and some others: (Msb:) but sometimes it occurs in poetry as fem. on the ground of meaning [as being syn. with مُدْيَةٌ or شَفْرَهٌ], (Msb,) and as such it occurs in a trad.: (L:) the pl. is سَكَاكِينُ.

أَسْكَنُ More, and most, still, &c.]

مَسْكَنٌ and مَسْكِنٌ; (S, L, Msb, K;) the people of El-Hijáz say the former, (S, L,) and the latter is anomalous; (L;) [A place of habitation;] a place of alighting, abiding, sojourning, or lodging; an abode, or a dwelling; (S, L, K;) a house, or a tent; (S, L, Msb;) pl. مَسَاكِنُ: (Msb:) and ↓ سَكَنُ signifies the same as مَسْكِنٌ, [thus in the Kur xvi. 82,] (Lh, L, and Ham p. 400,) as also ↓ سُكْنَى, (Lh, L,) and ↓ سُكْنٌ: you say, دَارٌ فِيهَا

↓ سَكَنٌ and ↓ سُكْنٌ, i. e. ↓ سُكْنَى [or مَسْكَنٌ, meaning A house in which is a place of habitation, or a lodging]: (L: [↓ سَكَنٌ and ↓ سُكْنٌ are there mentioned as syn., each of them, with مَسْكَنٌ and سُكْنَى, but in different places; and I incline to think that سُكْنٌ thus mentioned may be a mistranscription for سَكَنٌ: I have not found it elsewhere in this sense:]) and ↓ دَارِى لَكَ سُكْنَى, in which the last word is [said to be] virtually in the accus. case, as a denotative of state, meaning [My house is for thee,] as made [or given] to be inhabited, or as being inhabited: (Mgh:) or ↓ لَكَ دَارِى هٰذِهِ سُكْنَى, meaning To thee this my house is a lent dwelling-place: and المَرْأَةِ ↓ سُكْنَى means The wife's dwelling-place in which the husband lodges her. (L.) مَرْعًى مُسْكِنٌ Abundant pasturage, [that causes people to abide in it,] not requiring to go away; like مُرْبِعٌ and مُنْرِلٌ.

(L, K.) مَسْكَنَةٌ (L, Msb, K) The state of him who is termed مِسْكِينٌ: primarily, lowliness, humility, or submissiveness: and meaning also lowness, abjectness, ignominiousness, abasement, or humiliation; and paucity of property; and an evil state or condition; also poverty of mind; and weakness; (IAth, L:) it is from السُّكُونُ [an inf. n. of سَكَنَ meaning as expl. in the first sentence of this art.]. (L.) مُسْكَانٌ, meaning “ an earnest,” or “ earnest money,” and of which [as well as of مِسْكِينٌ] the pl. is مَسَاكِينُ, belongs to art. مسك. (TA.) مِسْكِينٌ (S, Mgh, L, Msb, K, &c.) and مَسْكِينٌ, (L, Msb, K,) the latter anomalous, for there is no [other] instance of the measure مَفْعِيلٌ, (L,) of the dial. of Benoo-Asad, (L, Msb,) mentioned by Ks as heard by him from some one or more of that tribe, (L,) others saying مِسْكِينٌ, (Msb,) of the measure مِفْعِيلٌ (L) from السُّكُونُ, because the person to whom it is applied trusts to, or relies upon, others, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind: (Mgh, L, Msb:) primarily, (L,) it signifies Lowly, humble, or submissive; (IAth, Mgh, L;) and therefore the Prophet said, اَللّٰهُمَّ أَحْيِنِى مِسْكِينًا وَأَمِتْنِى مِسْكِينًا وَاْحْشُرْنِى فِى زُمْرَةِ المَسَاكِينِ [O God, make me to live lowly, and make me to die lowly, and gather me among the congregation of the lowly]: (Mgh, * L:) and hence it sometimes applies to him who possesses little and [sometimes] to him who possesses much: (L:) sometimes, (S,) it signifies (S, IAth, L, Msb, K) also (IAth, L) low, abject, ignominious, or in a state of abasement or humiliation; (S, IAth, L, Msb, K;) and weak; (S, L, K;) and subdued, or oppressed; though possessing riches or competence: (Msb:) [therefore] Sb says, it is one of the words expressive of pity, or compassion; [and as such may be rendered poor;] you say, مَرَرْت بِهِ المِسْكِينَ [I passed by him, I mean the poor man], putting it in the accus. case by the implication of أَعْنِى, though it may be in the genitive case as a substitute [for the pronoun], and in the nom. case by the suppression of هُوَ meant to be understood: (L:) in other cases, (S,) it is syn. with فَقِيرٌ, (S, L, Msb,) meaning (Msb) destitute, i. e. possessing nothing: (L, Msb, K:) or accord. to ISk, مسكين means thus; but the فقير is he who possesses a sufficiency of the means of subsistence: (Msb:) or the former means possessing somewhat; (L;) or [rather] needy, i. e. possessing what is not sufficient (L, K) for him (K) or for his family: (L:) or caused by poverty to have little power of motion; (L, K;) thus expl. by Aboo-Is-hák; but this is improbable; for مسكين has the meaning of an active part. n., and his explanation [like one of the others mentioned above] makes it to have that of a pass. part. n.: (L:) Yoo says the like of ISk: (Msb:) he used to say that the مسكين is in a harder condition than the فقير: (S, L, * Msb: *) he says, I asked an Arab of the desert, Art thou فقير? and he answered, No, by God, but rather مسكين; (S, L, * Msb;) but 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh says that this man may have meant that he was low, or abject, by reason of his distance from his people and his home; and that he does not think he meant anything but that: (L:) [J also adds,] it is said in a trad. that the مسكين is not he whom a mouthful or two mouthfuls will turn back, or away, but is only he who does not beg, and who is not known so that he may be given [anything]; (S;) but Ziyádet-Allah Ibn-Ahmad says that the فقير is he who sits in his house, not begging, and the مسكين is he who begs and is given; and hence it is argued that the latter is in a better condition than the former; though it indicates that the former is more highminded than the latter: (L:) accord. to As, the مسكين is better in condition than the فقير; and this is [said to be] the right assertion, (Mgh, L, Msb,) for the pl. of the former is applied in the Kur xviii. 78 to men possessing a ship, or boat, which is worth a considerable sum; (L, Msb;) but they may have been thus termed because they were humbled and abased by the tyranny of the king who took every ship, or boat, that he found upon the sea, by force; (L;) and it is said that these men were hirers, not owners, of the vessel: (TA voce فَقِيرٌ, q. v.:) 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh says, that the مسكين is better in condition than the فقير is shown by a passage in the Kur [ix. 60], where it is said that the poor-rates are for the فُقَرَآء and the مَسَاكِين; for you will find the classes to be there mentioned in such an order that the second is better in condition than the first, and the third than the second, and in like manner the fourth and the fifth and the sixth and the seventh and the eighth: and he says that the same is shown by the fact that the Arabs sometimes used مسكين as a proper name, but not فقير: (L:) or when these two words are used together, they differ in signification; and when used separately, they [sometimes] signify the same: (El-Bedr El-Karáfee, TA in art. فقر:) [see more voce فَقِيرٌ:] a woman is termed مِسْكِينَةٌ (Sb, S, L, Msb, K) and مِسْكِينٌ also; (S, L, K;) the former by way of assimilation to فَقِيرَةٌ; (Sb, S, L;) the latter being accord. to rule, for an epithet of the measure مِفْعِيلٌ is regularly applied alike to a male and a female; (S, Msb;) or, as Abu-l-Hasan says, this is only when it is an intensive epithet, which مِسْكِينَةٌ is not: (L:) the pl. is مَسَاكِينُ and مِسْكِينُونَ, (S, L, K,) applied to men, (K,) or to a company of people, (S, L,) and مِسْكِينَاتٌ applied to female. (S, L, K.)

عرض: عرض نَفْسَه على فلان: عرّفه بنفسه.
وحضر أمامه وقدّم نفسه إليه. ففي النويري (الأندلس ص480) وأعلن سليمان نفسه خليفة عند البربر وسار معهم إلى وادي القصارة الذي استولوا عليه وعرضوا أنفسهم على واضح العامري- صاحب مدينة سالم فلم يقبلهم.

عَرَّض (بالتشديد). عرَّض فلانا لكذا: جعله عرضة وهدفاً له، كما ذكر فوك وفيه: عرَّض نفسه ل.
عرَّض: متعد، بنفسه لا باللام، ففي كوسج (طرائف من 147): لقد عرضتنا ونَفْسَك شراً. وفي الأخبار (ص39): وقد وعد أن لا يعرضهم البربر. أي لا يجعلهم غرضاً وهدفاً لأعدائهم البربر. وكذلك في (ص56) وفي (ص42): عرَّضتَنا أكل الكلاب والجلود. أي أطعمتنا الكلاب والجلود.
عرَّض بفلان .. في كتاب محمد بن الحارث (ص205): ماذا عرضتما بالرجل. أي إلى أي خطر جعلتما هذا الرجل عرضة وهدفاً. وفيه (ص209): أن عاندنا فقد عرَّض بنفسه ودمه.

عارض فلاناً وعارضه به: أراه شيئاً (معجم الطرائف) وقد ترجمت العبارة التي وردت في (ص135) إلى الفرنسية (بما معناه): قال أني لم أفعل ما تلومني عليه فهي ليست إلا شائعة أشاعها عني من يكرهني ويبغضني والذين يسرهم أن يصيبني سوء الحظ وتنزل بي نوائب الدهر طوارقه وقوارعه. وبعد أن قال هذا أقسم له أن يتجنب ما يتهمونه به، وعندئذ تركه العباس وشأنه. فلهذا الفعل إذا معناه المألوف الذي ذكره لين وهو أعرض عنه أي صدّ وولىَّ.
عارض: بمعنى درس الكتاب مع آخر (لين تاج العروس). وهذا الفعل يتعدى بنفسه إلى مفعولين، ففي حياة ابن خلدون (ص207 و) في الكلام عن أحد الشيوخ: كان يعارض السلطان القرآن برواياته السبع إلى أن توفَي.

(معجم الطرائف). هذا إذا كان الفعل فيه أعرض وليس عرض. تعرَّض له: أخذ شيئاً منه، سرقه، وتجرأ على ملامسته، وتجاسر على استملاكه. ففي كليلة ودمنة (ص241): ولتعلم إنه لم يكن يتعرض لِلَحْم استودعتَه إياه. وفي النويري (مخطوطة رقم 273، 572): وقد أصدر أمراً إلى النصارى أن لا يتعرضوا لماله ولادمه. أي بعدم التجاسر والتعدي على مال المسلم وحياته.
تعرّض لحرم فلان: اعتدى على شرف نسائه (أماري ص284، (انظر تعليقات نقدية) وص500). وفي تاريخ أبي الفداء (ص96): تعرض للمملكة وليس من بيت المملكة. ويقال أيضاً: تعرّض إلى (ابن الأثير 11: 70) وتعرض ب أيضاً، ففي الفخري (ص277) في كلامه عن الجنود: تعرّضوا بالنساء. ويقال أيضاً تعرَّض فلاناً بمضرَّة وأذية، أي أذاه وأضربه.

اعترض على: عارض، ردّ على (بوشر، هلو).
استعرض: لا يقال استعرض المملوك بمعنى طلب شراءه فقط بل بمعنى تفحصه أيضاً.
(انظر كتاب محمد بن الحارث من 238، والثعالبي طبعة كول وبوردا من 38، ألف ليلة 2: 465) وألاحظ أيضاً أن فريتاج حين ذكر: Lustravit at Comparavit rem rei اعتماداً على جان جاك شولتنز فيما يزعم، فانه قد نسب إلى هذا المستشرق الشهير خطأ هو بريء منه. فشولتنز بذكر أولاً Lustravit ( أي استعرض وعاين وفحص) نقلاً عن أبي الفداء، ثم قال بعد ذلك: استعرضت الناقة بحضر موت Comparavi camelam Hadramautae نقلاً عن الحريري (ص485 طبعة دي ساسي) وهذا يعني: اشتريت ناقة بحضر موت. ويؤيد هذا قول بعض اللغويين: والمعنى اشتريتها. غير أن فريتاج فهم من هذه العبارة اللاتينية أنها تعني عارضت وقارنت ناقة بحضر موت، وهذا لغو لا معنى له، ومن الغريب حقاً إنه نقل هذه العبارة من مقامات الحريري في السطر السابق بشرحه أسوأ شرح.
استعرض الجندّ: طلب عرضهم عليه. (عبد الواحد ص72).
استعرض: حاد، تولي عن، صدف، أعرض عنه. ففي بسَّام (3: 5ر): خالعين لسليمان معارضة للطاعة، واستعراضاً للجماعة.
عَرْض. ملك عرض: في الهند هو الذي يعرض الجنود أي يستعرضهم ويتولى قيادتهم. (ابن بطوطة 3: 44)، ويقول صاحب كتاب طبقات الناصري: كان في أيام الأمراء الغوريين موظف يسمى صاحب ديوان عرض ويجب على من يرغب في الخدمة العسكرية أن يحضر أمامه (طبقات الناصري ص458).
عَرْض: وظيفة تقديم العرائض والالتماسات والطلبات إلى السلطان. ففي كرتاس (ص259): ومن كتابه الفقيه الكاتب البارع أبو عبد الله المغيلي كان يتولّى العرض والإنشاء.
عَرْض وجمعها أعراض وعروضات، ويقال أيضاً: عرض حال: تقرير، مذكرة، عريضة، طلب، التماس، مذكرة استرحام، استرحام، رسالة إلى رئيس (بوشر).
عَرْض: وجمعها عُروض: طلب. (هلو) وفي محيط المحيط: عرض الحال عند الكتاب كتاب من الأدنى إلى الاعلى وجمعه وعرض حالات.
عَرْض: بمعنى أثاث المنزل، المفروشات والرياش. وتجمع أيضاً على أعراض (الفخري ص19) وانظر فريتاج في مادة عَرَض.
عَرْض = صَفّ. (زيشر 22: 155) ففي المقري (1: 364): وكان الرجال في المسجد مثل حروف في عرض سطر. وهذا فيما أرى صواب قراءتها وفقاً لما جاء في عدد من المخطوطات ولما جاء في طبعة بولاق بدلاً من عروض. ومنه يقال: من عرض الناس= من جُمْلَة الناس. (1 زيشر 1: 1).
عَرْض: دائرة العمل، منطقة النفوذ والسلطة، وسعة القدرة والطاقة، وسعة العلم والمعرفة وسعة الحال. يقال مثلاً: هذا خارج من عرضه.
عرض الوادي: ضفة النهر (فوك).
عَرْض: بقرة، ثور. (دومب ص64).
من عَرْض الفَحصْ: عند، قرب (فوك) ولا أدري كيف أن هذه العبارة تدل على هذا المعنى.
عِرْض، وجمعها أعراض: قبيلة، عشيرة. ففي كتاب ابن خرداذبه (ص80) وقد نقلت في الحلل ص87 و) حيث يعدد قبائل البربر: أعراض البربر، هوارة وزناتة الخ، وعند رولان (ص352): قبائل رحل. ولعلها في الأصل. المقاطعات والمناطق التي تسكنها مختلف القبائل فسميت بأسمائها. (أنظر ياقوت 1: 541) حيث يتحدث عن البربر فيقول: وهذه من أسماء قبائلهم التي سميّت بهم الأماكن التي نزلوا بها.
عِرْض: شرف. وأهل عرض: أشراف (بوشر).
أكل العرضَ أو الأعراض أو عرضَه: اغتاب، نمّ، شنّع: انتقص من، ثلب، قذف، افترى عليه، وشي. (فوك، ألكالا).
نحن في عرضك: نطرح أنفسنا على مروءتك وشهامتك، كما ترجمها لين (ألف ليلة: 225) وفيها: أن رجلين خافا أن يقتلا فذهبا إلى أمهما وقالا لها: يا أمَّنا نحن في عرضك يا أمنا اشفعي فينا. وفي معجم بوشر: أنا في عرضك: الأمان الأمان! العفو العفو! عُرْض: كما يقال فلان من عرض الناس، يقال: فلان من عرض الجند، أي جند بسيط (مباحث 1 ص38).
عَرَض: جنَي، شيطان، صاحب عرض، وجمعها أصحاب أعراض: به مس من الشيطان (فوك).
عَرِض، عرض الممالك، انظرها في مادة عارض.
عَرْضَة وجمعها عَرَضات: الشيء الذي يُعْرَض ويرى. ففي طرائف فريتاج (ص38): ثم قال لخادمه يا بشرْ إذا أنا مُتُّ فاجعَل الرقاعَ في أكفاني ألُقَي بهما محمداً صلّعم في عَرَضات القيامة. وهذا الضبط للكلمات في المطبوع منه. عُرْضَة ل: مُعرّض ل، هدف ل، ففي العبدري في كلامة عن خِرْقة تسمى برقع تغطى بها نساء برقة وجوههن: فلا تزال تلك الخرقة عرضة للاتساخ.
عرضْى: قبيلة، عشيرة. (هلو).
عُرضى: معسكر، ثكنة (بوشر). ولا أدري أن كانت هذه الكلمة ذات علاقة مع أعْراض (انظر عِرْض) أو أن لها علاقة بالكلمة التركية أوردي أو أوردوا التي أخذنا منها كلمة: horde التي معناها معسكر.
عَرَضِيّ: طارىء، مفاجيء (فوك، محيط المحيط) الخطيئة العرضية: خلاف الكبيرة أو المميتة، وهي من اصطلاح النصارى (محيط المحيط).
عَرَضِيَّة: حالة الشيء العارض أي الطارئ (بوشر). عرضية= كَر (انظر طرّ): قطعة قماش تتخذ عمامة، وقد فسرت ب (ما يلف على الرأس) (ميهرن ص31) وقد ترجمها بما معناه طاقية وقلنسوة، وهذا خطأ.
عَروض: موسيقى، فن الغناء (ألكالا، المقدمة 3: 417). انظر عن هذا البيت الذي ذكر في المقدمة ملاحظاتي في الجريدة الآسيوية 1869، 2: 213 - 214). وفي المعجم اللاتيني العربي): melodia بَمَساق وعَرُوض حلْو.
عروض البَلَد: أغنية شائعة في المدينة، أغنية هزلية خفيفة. (المقدمة 2: 195، 3: 417) عَرُوض: شطر، مصراع، نصف بيت. (المقدمة 3: 417) والجمع أعاريض: أجزاء البيت، تفاعيل. (المقري 2: 406).
عَروُض: بَحرْ وزن الشعر وميزان الشعر.
(الجريدة الآسيوية (1869، 2: 186، 187، المعجم اللاتيني - العربي).
من ذا العُرُوض: من هذا النوع، من هذا الصنف، من هذا الجنس. (فوك).
الشاعر العَرِيض؟ (حيان ص9 ف) عَرِيض: جانب الجبل الذي هو في جهة المسافر، هذا إذ فهمت جيدا ما جاء من محيط المحيط وهو ما عُرِض واستقام من جانب الجبل، وهو من كلام المولدين.
عُرَاضة: عند أهل لبنان لإطلاق البارود في محافل الفرح (محيط المحيط).

عَريضة: في اصطلاح الكتاب عرض الحال (محيط المحيط).
عَرُوضِيّ: موسيقار (الكالا).

عارض: شبح، يقال: عارض رجل: شبح رجل (عباد 2= 120، 3: 211 رقم 11).
عارض: اختلال الصحة، سقم. ففي بدرون (ص17): طبيب لا يخُشى معه داء ولا شيء ولا عارض من العوارض.
عارِض: مرض يصيب الكرم (ابن العوام 1: 586).
عارض: يطلق على اختلال العقل. ففي حياة ابن خلدون (ص198 ق): لقي أعلام المشرق يومئذ فلم يأخذ عنهم لأنه كان مختلطا بعارض عرض في عقله. وفي محيط المحيط: والعارض للمسّ من الجنّ من كلام المولّدين.
عارض، جنى استولى على شخص وجننه.
(ألف ليلة 2: 341، 342، 343، 4: 532) عوارضُ السِكك: ملتقى الطرق فيما يظهر.
(المقري 1: 358).
عارضُ (أو عَرِض) الممالك: مفتش الأقاليم في الهند. أنظر التعليقة في رحلة ابن بطوطة (3: 458).

تَعْرِيض: تورية: تلميح، إلماع (بوشر). مَعْرِض: سوق الرقيق (لين) وفي معجم (فوك): مَعَرَض وجمعها معارض: ساحة انعقاد الأسواق الدورية وفي كتاب الخطيب (ص37 و): وانا أقدر أن أشتري لك من الغرض (المعرض) أخيرا (خَيراً) منه بعشرين ديناراً. وما قلته هو الصواب لأنا نجد في المقري (2: 546): من سوق العبيد. وهو يعني المكان المذكور.
مُعْرِض: بمعنى أمكنه من عُرضِه. (انظر ديوان الهذليين ص266 البيت العاشر)، وجمعها: مَعارِض؟ (معجم مسلم).
مِعْراض: يبدو لي أنها تعني المعنى المألوف الذي ذكره لين في العبارة التي نقلت في معجم مسلم.
مِعْراض: حاجز، عائق. ففي المقري (3: 118): قال السلطان وقد حضر تشييع ميت: كيف تتركون الخيلَ تصل إلى ضريح الشيخ هَلاً عرَّضتم هنالك (وأشار إلى حيث المعراض الآن) خشبة ففعلنا. فمعراض تعني إذا خشبة معرَّضة وهي قطعة من الخشب توضع بالعرض.

1 عَرُضَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. عِرَضٌ, [instead of which, as a simple subst., عَرْضٌ is generally used,] and عَرَاضَةٌ, It was, or became, broad, or wide; (S, O, * Msb, K, TA;) as also ↓ اعرض, (A, TA,) which occurs in this sense in two exs. following. (TA.) [And in like manner, ↓ استعرض It grew, or spread, wide; said of a tree; opposed to طَالَ; occurring in the TA in art. بهل.] It is said in a prov., القِرْفَةُ ↓ أَعْرَضَتِ (S, O, * TA [but in two copies of the S, I find the verb in this instance written اعرضتُ, and in the O اعرضتَ, and I do not know that the reading in the TA, which seems to be the common one, is found in any copy of the S,]) Suspicion became, or has become, wide; syn. اِتَّسَعَت: (TA:) used when it is said to a man, “ Whom dost thou suspect ? ” and he answers, “ The sons of such a one,” referring to the whole tribe. (S, O, TA.) [See Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 112, where another reading is mentioned, which, by what he says, is shown to be أَعْرَضْتَ القِرْفَةَ Thou hast made suspicion wide.] In another prov. it is said, ثَوْبُ المَلْبَسِ ↓ أَعْرَضَ (IAar, A, TA, and K in art. لبس,) and المِلْبَسِ and المُلْبِسِ (IAar, and K in art. لبس,) and المُلْتَبِسِ (TA in art. لبس) i. e. صَارَ ذَا عَرْضٍ, (A, TA,) and عَرُضَ, and اِتَّسَعَ; (Sh;) [meaning the same as the prov. before mentioned;] used with reference to him whose suspicion has become wide; (IAar, and TA in art. لبس;) i. e. with reference to him who suspects many persons (IAar, Az, and K in art. لبس,) of a theft; (IAar, Az, and TA in that art.;) or of saying a thing: (TS, and TA in that art.:) or when thou askest a person respecting a thing and he does not explain it to thee. (TA in that art.) [See, again, Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 100, where it is said that أَعْرَضَ ثَوْبُ المُلْبِسِ app. means The garment of the suspected appeared, or has appeared: but that another reading is عَرُضَ, meaning became, or has become, wide.]

A2: عَرَضَ, aor. ـِ (Fr, S, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA:) and عَرِضَ, (As, TS, K,) aor. ـَ (Fr, K,) or ـِ like حَسِبَ, aor. ـِ deviating from the general rule; (As, TS;) It (a thing) appeared, or became apparent, لَهُ to him; (S, O, Msb, K; [but in some copies of the K, instead of the explanation ظَهَرَ وَبَدَا, we find ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ وَبَدَا, which is a mistake;]) as also ↓ اعرض, (Fr, S, O, Msb, K,) which is a deviation from a general rule, being quasi pass. of عَرَضَهُ, which see below; (S, * O, * Msb, K;) [lit.] it showed its breadth, or width. (O, * TA.) You say, لَكَ الشَّىْءُ ↓ اعرض مِنْ بَعِيدٍ The thing appeared to thee from afar. (TA.) And عَرَضَتْ لَهُ الغُولُ, and عَرِضَتْ, (Az, S, O, K,) The ghool appeared to him. (K.) The Arabs say, of a thing, عَرَضَ and ↓ اعرض and ↓ تعرّض and ↓ اعترض, using these verbs as syn.; (Sh;) [app. as meaning It showed, presented, or offered, itself, (lit. its breadth, or width, or its side, see 5,) to a person: the first and last also often signify, and the others sometimes, he obtruded himself in an affair; interfered therein:] IKt disallows ↓ اعرض in the sense of اعترض, as not having been found by him: (TA:) [but] an instance of the former of these two verbs used in the sense of the latter of them occurs in the phrase لِلنَّاظِرِينَ ↓ إِذَا أُعْرَضَتْ [app. meaning When she shows, or presents, herself to the lookers], in a poem by one of the tribe of Teiyi. (Sh.) b2: عَرَضَ لَكَ الخَيْرُ, [in one place in the TA الخَبَرَ, and الخبر in a copy of the Msb,] inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA; [in one place in the TA عُرُوضٌ there referring to الخَبَرُ, which is app. a mistranscription;]) and ↓ اعرض; (S, O, K, TA;) Good [i. e. the doing of good] hath become within thy power, or practicable to thee, or easy to thee. (S, O, K, TA.) And لَكَ الظَّبْىُ ↓ اعرض The gazelle hath exposed to thee its side; (TA;) or hath put its side in thy power, (S, O, K, TA,) by turning it towards thee: (O, TA:) said to incite one to shoot it, or cast at it. (S, O.) Or لَكَ ↓ اعرض, said of an animal of the chase, or other thing, signifies It hath put in thy power, [or exposed to thee,] its breadth, or width: (A:) or لَهُ ↓ اعرض signifies it (a thing) became within his power, or practicable to him, or easy to him; lit., it showed its side [to him]. (Mgh.) [In the TA, I find أَعْرَضَ فِى الشَّىْءِ expl. as signifying He had the width of the thing in his power: but فى, here, seems to be a mistake for لَهُ.] A poet, also, says ↓ أَعْرِضِى addressing a woman; meaning أَمْكِنِى

[Empower thou; i. e. grant thou access]. (S.) b3: عَرَضَ لَهُ, aor. ـِ (As, S, K, TA;) and عَرِضَ, aor. ـَ (TA;) are also said of an event, (As, TA,) or of a disease, and the like, (S, K, TA,) such as disquietude of mind, and a state of distraction of the mind or attention; (TA;) [meaning It happened to him; it befell him; it occurred to him; was incident to him;] and also of doubt, and the like. (TA.) [So, too, is ↓ اعترض.] You also say, عَرَضَهُ عَارِضٌ مِنَ الحُمَّى وَنَحْوِهَا [An occurrence of fever, and the like, happened to him, or befell him]. (S.) And البَدَنَ ↓ اعترض [It befell the body] is said of [a disease, as, for instance,] the mange, or scab.

(Msb.) Yousay also, عَرَضَ لَهُ أَشَدَّ العَرْضِ, and ↓ اعترض, He opposed himself to him (قَابَلَهُ بِنَفْسِهِ) with the most vehement opposition of himself. (TA.) See also 5, second sentence. One should not say, عرّضتُ لَهُ, with teshdeed, in the sense of اِعْتَرَضْتُ. (Msb.) You also say, عَرَضَ عَارِضٌ, meaning [An obstacle intervened, or prevented; lit.] an intervening thing intervened; a preventing thing prevented. (TA.) And سِرْتُ فَعَرَضَ لِى فِى الطَّرِيقِ عَارِضٌ مِنْ جَبَلٍ

وَنَحْوِهِ I journeyed, and there opposed itself to me, so as to prevent my going on, an obstacle consisting in a mountain, and the like; as also ↓ اعترض: whence the اِعْتِرَاضَات [or objections] of the lawyers; because they prevent one's laying hold upon the evidence.

And عَرَضَ الشَّىْءُ The thing stood up and prevented; [or stood in the way, or presented itself as an obstacle; or opposed itself;] as also ↓ اعترض. (TA.)

(S, O.) b5: مَا عَرَضْتُ لَهُ بِسُوْءٍ, aor. ـِ and ما عَرِضْتُ, aor. ـَ signify ما تَعَرَّضْتُ: see 5: or, as some say, I did not, or have not, become exposed to his reviling, or evilspeaking, by reviling, or speaking evil, of him. (Msb.) [See also عَرَضَ عِرْضَهُ, below.] b6: عَرَضَ لَهُ also signifies He went towards him; (TA in art. نحو;) and عَرَضَ عَرْضَهُ and عُرْضَهُ [the same, i. e.] نَحَا نَحْوَهُ; (K;) as also عرضه ↓ اعترض (TA.) b7: In the saying of El-Kumeyt, فَأَبْلِغْ يَزِيدَ إِنْ عَرَضْتَ وَمُنْذِرًا he means [And convey thou to Yezeed,] if thou pass by him, [and to Mundhir: or perhaps, if thou go to him: or if thou present thyself to him.] (S.) b8: عَرَضَ الفَرَسُ, (L, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (L, TA,) The horse went along inclining towards one side: (K, TA:) or ran inclining his breast and head: (L, TA:) and ran inclining his head and neck; (K; [in which only the inf. n. of the verb in this last sense is mentioned;]) the doing of which is approved in horses, but disapproved in camels.

(TA, from a trad.) Also, said of a sheep, or goat, (شاة,) It died by disease. (K.) and عَرِضَ الشَّآءُ The sheep, or goats, burst, or became rent, from abundance of herbage. (K.) and عَرَضَ, (IKtt,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (K,) He (an animal, IKtt, or a man, K, [but it is said in the TA that there is no reason for this restriction,]) died without disease. (IKtt, K.) b11: عَرَضَ بِسِلْعَتِهِ i. q. عَارَضَ بِهَا. (K.) See 3, in two places. [and under the same, see a similar phrase.] b12: عَرَضَ He (a man, S, O) came to العَرُوض, i. e. Mekkeh and El-Medeeneh, (S, O, K, TA,) and El-Yemen, (TA,) and what is around them. (S, O, K, TA.) A3: عَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (Msb,) He made the thing apparent; showed it; exhibited it; manifested it; exposed it to view; presented it; (S, O, Msb, K;) unfolded it; laid it open: and also he mentioned it: (Msb:) [lit. he showed its breadth, or width, or its side: and hence it also signifies he made the thing to stand as an obstacle, دُونَ شَىْءٍ in the way to, or of, a thing.] You say, عَرَضَ لَهُ الشَّىْءَ He made apparent, showed, exhibited, manifested, or exposed to view, to him the thing; (S, O, K;) unfolded it, or laid it open, to him. (S, TA.) And عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَ كَذَا (S, O, K *) He showed, propounded, or proposed, to him, such a thing, or such a case: (K, * TA:) [and he asked, or required, of him, with gentleness, the doing of such a thing; for]

العَرْضُ signifies طَلَبٌ بِلِينٍ, (Mughnee and K, voce أَلَا,) or طَلَبٌ بِلِينٍ وَتَأَدُّبٍ. (Mughnee voce لَوْلَا.) And عَرَضْتُ المَتَاعَ لِلْبَيْعِ [I showed, exposed, presented, or offered, the commodity for sale; or] I showed the commodity to those desirous of purchasing it. (Msb.) The phrase عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ المَتَاعَ [He showed, or offered, to him the commodity] is used because the person shows to the other the length and breadth of the thing (طُولَهُ وَعَرْضَهُ), or because he shows him one of its sides (عُرْضًا مِنْ أَعْرَاضِهِ). (Mgh.) [Hence,] it is said in a trad. of Hodheyfeh, تُعْرَضُ الفِتَنُ عَلَى القُلُوبِ عَرْضَ الحَصِيرِ, which means, accord. to some, that فِتَن [Temptations, &c.,] will be [displayed and] embellished to the hearts of men like [as] the ornamented and variegated garment called حصير [is displayed and embellished]: (B, TA in art. حصر:) or the meaning is, that they will be laid and spread upon the hearts like the حصير: (IAth, TA in the present art.:) and some say that by this last word is here meant a certain vein extending across upon the side of a beast, towards the belly. (TA in art. حصر.) [Hence also,] عَرْضٌ سَابِرِىٌّ [A slight exhibition: (see art. سبر:)] so in the proverbs by A'Obeyd, in the handwriting of Ibn-El-Jawáleekee: (TA:) or عَرْضُ سَابِرِىٍّ: (TA, and so in a copy of the S in this art.:) or عَرْضَ سَابِرِىٍّ. (O, TA, and so in a copy of the S in this art.) With this agrees in meaning the saying عَرَضَ عَلَىَّ سَوْمَ عَالَّةٍ [He offered to me in the manner of offering water to camels taking a second draught: see also arts. سوم and عل; and see Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 84]. (TA.) Yousay also, عَرَضْتُ الجَارِيَةَ عَلَى البَيْعِ [I showed, or displayed, or exposed, or offered, the girl for sale]: (S, O, TA:) and in like manner المَتَاعَ [the commodity].

(El-Umawee, TA.) And عَرَضْتُ البَعِيرَ عَلَى

الحَوْضِ, which is an instance of inversion, meaning عَرَضْتُ الحَوْضَ عَلَى البَعِيرِ [I showed the watering-trough to the camel]: (S, O, Msb:) [or it agrees in meaning with the phrase] عَرَضَ النَّاقَةَ عَلَى الحَوْضِ, and ↓ أَعْرَضَهَا, [as rendered] He offered to the she-camel to drink [at the wateringtrough]. (L, TA.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى السَّيْفِ [lit. He exposed them to the sword; (see also 2;) meaning] he slew them (S, A, O, Msb, K) with the sword. (Msb.)

(S, O, TA.) [But the latter of these two verbs has a signification nearly allied to that which is here assigned to the former, and exactly agreeing with one mentioned before. See 2.] b4: عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ, (S, Msb,) and عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ عَرْضَ العَيْنِ, (S, O,) or عَرْضَ عَيْنٍ, (A, K, B, except that in the A and B we find الجَيْشَ instead of الجند,) aor. ـِ (Msb,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (Yoo, S,) He made the army, or body of soldiers, to pass by him, and examined their state, (S, O, K,) what it was: (S, O:) [i. e. he reviewed them:] or he made them to pass before him in review, that he might know who was absent and who was present: (A, B:) or he caused them to come forth, and examined them, that he might know them: (Msb:) and you say also, ↓ اعترضهُمْ, (S, O, K,) meaning [the same, or] he made them to pass by him, or before him, and examined them, one by one, (K, TA,) to see who were absent from those who were present.

A4: عَرَضَ عِرْضَهُ, aor. ـِ (TA;) and ↓ اعترضهُ; (A, TA;) [perhaps originally signified He examined his grounds of pretension to respect, or the like: and then became used to express a frequent consequence of doing so; i. e.] he spoke evil of him; reviled him; detracted from his reputation: (A, TA:) or he corresponded to him, or equalled him, in grounds of pretension to respect: (TA:) [the former seems to be the more probable of the two meanings; for it is said that] فُلَانًا ↓ اعترض signifies he spoke evil of such a one; reviled him; detracted from his reputation; (Lth, S, O, K;) and annoyed him. (Lth, TA.) A5: عَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (TA,) He hit the side (عُرْض) of the thing. (K.) A6: عَرَضَ العُودَ عَلَى

(TA.) b4: The saying of Aboo-Kebeer El-Hudhalee, cited, but not expl., by Th, فَعَرَضْتُهُ فِى سَاقِ أَسْمَنِهَا is thought by ISd to mean And I made its (the sword's) breadth to become concealed in the thigh of the fattest of them. (TA.) A7: عَرَضَهُ He fed him: (Fr, TA:) [or he offered, or presented, to him food: for] عُرِضُوا signifies They were fed: and they had food offered, or presented, to them. (L, TA.) [See also 2, in the last quarter.] b2: عَرَضَ الحَوْضَ and القِرْبَةَ He filled the wateringtrough and the water-skin. (K.) A8: عَرَضَ الشَّوْكَ: see 8, near the end.

meaning that he is tall of stature, and one who entertains many guests: (Mgh:) [but many hold these two words to be identical in meaning.] You say, عَرَّضْتُ لِفُلَانٍ and بِفُلَانٍ, i. e. I said something [in the manner explained above], meaning such a one. (S, Msb.) [See also an ex. voce كَلَّآءٌ.] 'Omar defined [or rather explained]

التَّعْرِيضُ بِالفَاحِشَةِ [The making an allusion to that which is foul, or obscene] by the instance of a man saying to another “ My father is not an adulterer, nor is my mother an adulteress. ” (O, TA.) Or, accord. to the early authorities, عرّض signifies He used a phrase susceptible of different meanings, or an equivocal phrase, by which the hearer understood a meaning different from that which he (the speaker) intended: or, accord. to the later authorities, as Et-Teftezánee, he mentioned a thing by a proper or tropical or metonymical expression, to signify some other thing, which he did not mention; as when one says, “I heard him whom thou hatest praying for thee, and making good mention of thee; ” meaning in his praying for the Muslims in general. (El-Munáwee, in explaining the trad. إِنَّ فِى المَعَارِيضِ الخ, which see below, voce مِعْرَاضٌ.) تعريض with respect to the demanding of a woman in marriage in [the period of] her عِدَّة, [during which she may not contract a new marriage,] is the using language which resembles a demand of her in marriage, but does not plainly express it; as the saying to her “ Verily thou art beautiful,” or “ Verily there is a desire for thee,” or “ Verily women are of the things that I need: ” and تعريض is sometimes made by the quoting of proverbs, and by the introducing of enigmas in one's speech. (TA.) [When followed by عَلَى, it signifies The making an indirect objection against a person or saying &c.] b4: Also عرّض, (S, O,) inf. n. as above, (K,) He wrote indistinctly; (S, O, K;) not making the letters distinct, nor the handwriting rightly formed or disposed. (TA.) A2: تَعْرِيضٌ also sigsifies The making a thing to be exposed [or liable] to another thing. (K, [It is there expl., with the article ال prefixed to it, by the words أَنْ يَجْعَلَ لِلشَّىْءِ ↓ الشَّىْءَ عَرْضًا, or ↓ عَرَضًا, accord. to different copies; the latter (which see, last sentence but one,) app. the right reading; meaning مَعْرُوضًا, whichever be the right; for an inf. n. may be used in the sense of a pass. part. n.; and many a word of the measure فَعَلٌ is used in that sense, as, for instance, خَبَطٌ and نَفَضٌ and هَدَمٌ. That I have rightly rendered the above-mentioned explanation in the K is indicated by what here immediately follows.]) Hence the trad. مَا عَظُمَتْ نِعْمَةُ اللّٰهِ عَلَى عَبْدٍ إِلَّا عَظُمَتْ مَؤُونَةُ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْتَمِلْ تِلْكَ المَؤُونَةَ فَقَدْ عَرَّضَ تِلْكَ النِّعْمَةَ لِلزَّوَالِ [The blessing of God upon a servant, or man, hath not become great but the burden of other men upon him hath become great; and he who doth not take upon himself that burden causeth that blessing to be exposed to cessation]. (O, TA.) You also say, هُوَ لَهُ ↓ عَرَّضْتُ فُلَانًا لِكَذَا فَتَعَرَّضَ [I caused such a one to expose himself, or I exposed him, to such a thing, and he exposed himself, or became exposed, to it], (S, O, *) i. e. ↓ جَعَلْتُهُ عَرَضًا لِكَذَا. (O.) See also 1, last quarter. b2: Also The giving a thing in exchange for, as an equivalent for, or in the place of, another thing. (TA.) b3: And The act of bartering, or selling, a commodity for a like commodity. (K, * TA.)

[See also 1, near the end.] It is said in a trad., respecting a company of travelling merchants making presents to Mohammad and Aboo-Bekr, عَرَّضُوهُمَا ثِيَابًا بِيضًا They gave to both of them white garments, or pieces of cloth. (L.) And you say, عَرَّضُوهُمْ مَحْضًا They gave them to drink [unmixed] milk. (TA.) And عَرِّضُونَا Give ye to us food of your عُرَاضَة; your wheat, or corn, which ye have brought. (S, TA.) b5: عرّض المَاشِيَةَ, inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ, He made the cattle to have such pasturage as rendered them in no need of being fed with fodder. (TA.) A3: عرّض, (IAar, O,) inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ (K,) also signifies He became possessed of عَارِضَة [i. e. courage, or courage and energy], (IAar, O, K,) and strength, or power, (IAar, O,) and a faculty of speech, (IAar, O, K,) or, as in the Tekmileh, and power of speech. (TA.) A4: And He kept continually to the eating of عِرْضَان, (O, * K, TA, [in the O عِرَاض,]) pl. of عَرِيضٌ. (TA.) A5: See also 4, last sentence.3 عَاْرَضَ [عَارضهُ has two contr. significations, which are unequivocally expressed by saying عارضهُ بِالخِلَافِ and عارضهُ بِالوِفَاقِ. (See عَانَدَهُ.) Thus one says,] عارضهُ, (Msb,) inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, (TA,) He opposed him [being opposed by him]. (Kull p. 342.) b2: And [He vied, competed, or contended for superiority, with him; emulated, rivalled, or imitated, him;] he did like as he (the latter) did. (Msb, TA.) You say also, عَارَضْتُهُ بِمِثْلِ مَا صَنَعَ, (S, O,) or بِمِثْلِ صَنِيعِهِ, (K,) I did to him like as he did: (S, O, K:) whence المُعَارَضَة [in trafficking, as will be seen below]: as though the breadth (عَرْض) of the action of the one were like the breadth of the action of the other. (O, K.) And عارضهُ بِمَا صَنَعَهُ He requited him for that which he did. (L.) b3: [Hence] مُعَارَضَةٌ also signifies The selling a commodity for another commodity; exchanging it for another; as also عَرْضٌ: (TA:) and [in like manner] ↓ تَعْرِيضٌ, the act of bartering, or selling a commodity for a like commodity. (K, * TA.) You say, عارض بِسِلْعَتِهِ; and بِهَا ↓ عَرَضَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA;) He exchanged his commodity; giving one commodity and taking another; (TA:) and مَتَاعَهُ ↓ عرّض he sold his commodity for another commodity. (TK.) Also عارضهُ بِالبَيْعِ (M and L in art. بد) and بَاعَهُ مُعَارَضَةً (S and K in that art.) [He bartered, or exchanged commodities, with him]. And ↓ أَخَذْتُ هٰذِهِ السِّلْعَةَ عَرْضًا I took this commodity giving another in exchange for it. (TA.) And when persons demand blood of other persons, and they [the latter] do not retaliate for them, they [the latter] say, نَحْنُ نَعْرِضُ مِنْهُ [We will give a compensation for it]: and they [the former] accept (اعترضوا) the bloodwit. (L.) b4: You say also, عَارَضْتُهُ فِى البَيْعِ فَعَرَضْتُهُ [I vied with him in endeavouring to defraud, or deceive, in selling, or buying,] and I defrauded, or deceived, him therein. (K, * TA.) And عارضهُ بِالمَجْدِ [He vied, or competed, or contended, with him, or emulated him, or rivalled him, in glory, or honour, &c.]: (L and K in art. مجد:) and in like manner عارضهُ بِالفَخْرِ. (K in art. فخر.) See 6. b5: عارضهُ, (O, K,) or عارضهُ فِى المَسِيرِ (S,) or فى السَّيْرِ, (A,) He went along over against him; or on the opposite side to him; (S, A, O, K;) in a corresponding manner; (TA;) [each taking the side opposite to the other.] b6: [Hence. عارضهُ as signifying It (a tract &c.) lay over against him. Also as syn. with اعرض عَنْهُ.] See 4. b7: [Hence also,] عارض, (S, O, K,) inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, (TA,) He took to one side (S, O, K *) of the way, or ways, (accord. to different copies of the K,) while another took to another way, so that they both met. (TA. [See 3 in arts. خزم and زم.]) El-Ba'eeth says, مَدَحْنَا لَهَا رَوْقَ الشَّبَابِ فَعَارَضَتْ جَنَابَ الصِّبَا فِى كَاتِمِ السِّرِّ أَعْجَمَا [cited in the S, voce رَيِّق, but with رَيْقَ, in the place of رَوْقَ, and there ascribed to Lebeed,] meaning, accord. to ISk, [We praised to her the first part of youth, and thereupon] she took to the side of الصبا [or youthful foolishness, and amorous dalliance], or, as another says, she entered with us into it, in a manner not open, but making it appear to us that she was entering with us; جناب الصبا meaning جَنْبَهُ. (TA.) b8: عارض الجِنَازَةَ He came to the bier, or the bier conveying the corpse, intermediately (مُعْتَرِضًا), in a part of the way, not following it from the abode of the deceased: (O, K, TA:) said of Mohammad, in a trad. respecting the funeral of Aboo-Tálib. (O, TA.) b9: عارض المَرْأَةَ, inf. n. عِرَاضٌ and مُعَارَضَةٌ, He came in to the woman [indirectly, or] unlawfully; (Sgh, K, TA;) i. e. without marriage and without possession [of her as his slave]. (Sgh, TA.) Hence the saying, جَآءَتْ بِوَلَدٍ عَنْ عِرَاضٍ and مُعَارَضَةٍ She brought forth a child in consequence of a man's having so come in to her: (K:) or a child whose father was unknown.

(O, TA.) b10: الجَوْزَآءُ تَمُرُّ عَلَى جَنْبٍ وَتُعَارِضُ النُّجُومَ, inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, [Orion passes along towards one side, and is oblique in its course with respect to the other stars;] i. e. it is not direct [in the disposition of its stars, particularly of the three conspicuous stars of the belt, with respect to its course] in the sky. (As, S, O.) [See also 5.] b11: عارض الرِّيحَ, said of a camel, (TA,) [He turned his side to the wind;] he did not face the wind nor turn his back to it. (A, TA.) b12: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ مُعَارَضَةً He looked at him, or towards him, sideways, or obliquely. (A, TA.) You say also, نَظَرَ عَنْ مُعَارَضَةٍ [He looked sideways, or obliquely]. (TA in art. خزر.) and you say of a she-camel, تَمْشِى مُعَارَضَةً لِلنَّشَاطِ [She goes obliquely by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]. (S, K. * [See again 5, latter half.]) b13: عارض الشَّىْءَ بِالشَّىْءِ He compared the thing with the thing. (Msb.)

And كَتَبَ كِتَابًا عَنْ مُعَارَضَةٍ [He copied, or transcribed, the writing, or book]. (K in art. نسخ.) b14: And المُعَارَضَةُ is syn. with المُدَارَسَةُ [probably as meaning The reading, or studying, with another]. (TA.) A2: ضَرَبَ النَّاقَةَ عِرّاضًا [He covered the she-camel agreeably with her desire] is said when the stallion is offered to her, and if she desire he covers her, but otherwise he does not: (S, O, TA:) in the K it is said, if he desire her; which is wrong: (TA:) this is because of her generous quality. (S, O, TA.) b2: And لَقِحَتْ عِرَاضًا She (a camel) conceived by a stallion, she not being of the camels among which he was sent. (AO, TA.) b3: See also 8, near the end.4 اعرض: see 1, first sentence; and in thirteen places after that, as far as the break after the words “ grant thou access. ” b2: Also He went wide (S, O, Msb, K) and long; (S, O, K;) فِى الشَّىْءِ [in the thing]; (Msb;) and فِى المَكَارِمِ (tropical:) [in generous actions].

↓ عارضهُ he turned aside, or away, from him; avoided him; shunned him; (S, O, K;) lit. he became aside with respect to him. (TA.) A2: اعرضهُ: see 2, first signification. b2: أَعْرَضَتْ بِوُلْدِهَا She (a woman) brought forth her children broad [in make]; expl. by the words وَلَدَتْهُمْ عِرَاضًا; (S, O, K;) [not meaning عَنْ عِرَاضٍ, (see 3,) as Freytag, deviating from Golius, has understood it; unless SM be in error; for he says that] the last word in this explanation is pl. of عَرِيضٌ. (TA.) b3: اعرض المَسْأَلَةَ He put, or expressed, the question broadly; (Mgh;) widely; (Mgh, TA;) largely. (TA.) b4: اعرض النَّاقَةَ عَلَى الحَوْضِ: see عَرَضَ, latter half. b5: اعرض العِرْضَانَ He put for sale the عرضان [pl. of عَرِيضٌ, q. v.]. (O.) b6: And (O) He castrated the عرضان. (S, IKtt, O.) b7: [And app. He circumcized a boy: or so ↓ عرّض: see مُعَرِّضٌ.]5 تعرّض: see عَرَضَ, near the beginning, where these two verbs, and اعرض and اعترض, are said to be used as syn.; [app. as meaning It showed, presented, or offered, itself, to a person; lit. it showed, or presented, its breadth, or width; or, as تعرّض is expl. in the EM p. 19, it showed its عُرْض, i. e. side: this, or it, or he, presented, or offered, or exposed, its, or his, side, seems to be the primary signification of تعرّض, and of اعترض, as well as of عَرَضَ; and is of frequent occurrence: and all (as mentioned voce عَرَضَ) signify also he obtruded himself in an affair; interfered therein.] b2: [Hence,] تعرّض لَهُ He opposed himself to him; he offered opposition to him; or he attacked him; said of a man, and of a beast of prey, or noxious reptile, and the like; as also ↓ عَرَضَ and ↓ اعترض: this signification also is of frequent occurrence. (The lexicons passim.) b3: [Hence also,] He addressed, or applied, or directed, himself, or his regard, or attention, or mind, to him, or it; [as though he set himself over against the object to which the verb relates;] syn. تَصَدَّى. (Lth, Lh, S, O, Msb, K.) So in the saying, تعرّض لِمَعْرُوفِهِمْ and مَعْرُوفَهُمْ [He addressed himself, &c., presented himself, betook himself, advanced, came forward, or went forward, or attempted, to obtain their favour, or bounty]: and تعرّض لِلْمَعْرُوفِ and المَعْرُوفَ [He addressed himself, &c., to obtain favour, or bounty; and] he sought, or demanded, it: (Az, Msb:) and [so] للمعروف ↓ اعترض (Msb in art. عر. [See also اعترض لَهُ.]) So too in the saying, تَعَرَّضُوا لِنَفَحَاتِ رَحْمَةِ اللّٰهِ [Address ye yourselves, &c., to become objects of the effusions of the mercy of God]; (O, K, TA;) occurring in a trad. (TA.) And hence the saying, تعرّض فِى شَهَادَتِهِ لِكَذَا He addressed himself, &c., (تصدّى,) in his testimony, to the mention of such a thing. (Msb.) It is likewise syn. with تصدّى in the saying, تعرّض لِى فُلَانٌ بِمَكْرُوهٍ [Such a one addressed himself, &c., or attempted, to do me an abominable, or evil, action; or opposed himself to me with an abominable, or evil, action]. (Lth.) [In like manner also you say,] يَتَعَرَّضُ لِلنَّاسِ بِالشَّرِّ [He addresses himself, &c., to do to men evil; or he opposes himself to men with evil or mischief]. (S, K.) And مَا تَعَرَّضْتُ لَهُ بِسُوْءٍ [I did not address myself, or have not addressed myself, &c., to do to him evil]: and ↓ مَا عَرَضْتُ and ↓ مَا عَرِضْتُ are said to signify the same. (Msb.) [See 1.] Yousay also, تَعَرَّضْتُ أَسْأَلُهُمْ [I addressed myself, &c., to ask them]. (S, O. *) And جَآءَ فُلَانٌ يَتَعَرَّضُ, and يَتَضَرَّعُ, Such a one came asking, or petitioning, to another, for a thing that he wanted. (Fr, in S, art.ضرع.) b4: And تعرّض الرِّفَاقَ He asked the companies of travellers for what are termed عُرَاضَات [pl. of عُرَاضَةٌ, q. v.]. (TA.) b5: تعرّض لِكَذَا [also signifies He exposed himself, or became exposed, to such a thing]. (S.) See 2, latter portion. b6: Also تعرّض, [from عُرْضٌ,] He, or it, turned aside; turned from the right course or direction; syn. تَعَوَّجَ; (S, K, TA;) and زَاغَ: (TA:) his, or its, course, or march, was, or became, indirect, or oblique. (L, TA.) You say, تعرّض الجَمَلُ فِى الجَبَلِ The camel went to the right and left, [in, or upon, the mountain,] on account of the difficulty of the road, or way. (S, O, K.) And تَعَرَّضَتِ الإِبِلُ المَدَارِجَ The camels went along the routes (فِى المَدَارِجِ) [المَدَارِجَ being in the accus. case because فى is understood, not that the verb is trans.] to the right and left; (A;) i. e., alternately to the right and left. (T in art. ثنى.) [See a verse cited voce تَصَدَّفَ, and its explanation.] Dhu-l-Bijádeyn, being guide to the Apostle, addressing his she-camel, said, تَعَرَّضِى مَدَارِجًا وَسُومِى

تَعَرُّضَ الجَوْزَآءِ لِلنُّجُومِ هٰذَا أَبُو القَاسِمِ فَاسْتَقِيمِى (S, O) Go thou along routes to the right and left, avoiding the rugged acclivities, [and continue thy course, or as expl. in the TA, art. سوم, pass along quickly,] (TA,) like as الجوزاء [Orion] passes along in the sky obliquely, or indirectly, in the disposition of its stars [with respect to the other stars: (see 3, towards the end:) this is Abu-l- Kásim; therefore go thou right]. (IAth, TA.) b7: تعرّض الفَرَسُ فِى رَسَنِهِ i. q. اعترض, q. v. (TA.) You say also, of a camel, فِى سَيْرِهِ ↓ يَعْتَرِضُ [He inclines towards one side, in his march, or course; or goes obliquely, or inclining towards one side]. (K: and so in one copy of the S: in another copy of the S, يَتَعَرَّضُ. [See also 3, last quarter.]) b8: تعرّض also signifies It (a thing) became infected, vitiated, or corrupted; and in this sense it is said of love: (TA:) [as though it turned from the right course, or direction; a signification mentioned before; and thus it is expl. in the S, as occurring in the phrase تعرّض وَصْلُهُ, in the Mo'allakah of Lebeed; or, thus used, it signifies] it (a person's attachment to another) became altered, so as to cease. (EM p. 149.) 6 تعارضا They opposed each other. (Ibn-Maaroof, in Golius. [The verb is very often used in this sense.]) b2: They fought, or combated, each other. (MA.) b3: They did each like as the other did; they imitated each other: they vied, competed, or contended, each with the other; they emulated, or rivalled, each other: (TA in art. برى:) syn. تَبَارَيَا. (K in that art.) 8 اعترض: see عَرَضَ, near the beginning, where these two verbs and اعرض and تعرّض, are said to be used as syn., app. in the senses expl. there and in the beginning of 5. b2: [Hence,] اعترض عَلَيْهِ He opposed, resisted, or withstood, him, or it; syn. اِمْتَنَعَ. (MA.) [See 1 in art. شنف, in two places.] b3: See also 5, second sentence. b4: And see from عَرَضَ لَهُ as signifying “ it happened to him ” as far as the end of the sentence explaining اعترض الشَّىْءُ دُونَ الشَّىْءِ.

And فُلَانٌ جَرِبُ العِرْضِ Such a one is base, or ignoble, in respect of ancestry. (TA.) IKt disallows this signification, asserting عِرْضٌ to have no other signification than those of a man's نَفْس and his بَدَن: (O, * TA:) but I Amb says that this is an error; as is shown by the saying of Aboo-Miskeen Ed-Dárimee, رُبَّ مَهْزُولٍ سَمِينٌ عِرْضُهُ وَسَمِينِ الجِسْمِ مَهْزُولُ الحَسَبْ

in which عِرْض cannot be syn. with بَدَن and جِسْم, for, were it so, it would involve a contradiction; the meaning being only Many a person meagre in respect of his body is noble [or great] in respect of his ancestry; [and fat in respect of the body, meagre in respect of grounds of pretension to honour on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of his ancestors, &c.:] and by Mohammad's using the expression دَمُهُ وَعِرْضُهُ; for if عِرْض were [here] syn. with نَفْس, it had sufficed to say دمه without عرضه. (O, TA.) b8: Also A natural disposition that is commended. (IAth, K.) b9: And A good action. (TA.) A5: Also One who speaks evil of men (يَعْتَرِضُهُمْ) falsely; (O, K;) applied to a man: and so with عِرْضَنٌ applied to a woman: (O, K: *) so too ↓ ة applied to a man, and with عَرْضَنٌ to a woman. (TA.) عَرَضٌ A thing that happens to, befalls, or occurs to, a man; such as disease, and the like; (S, O, K;) as disquietude of mind, and a state of distraction of the mind or attention: or a misfortune, such as death, and disease, and the like: (TA:) or an event that happens to a man, whereby he is tried: (As:) or a thing that happens to a man, whereby he is impeded; such as disease, or a theft: (Lh:) or a bane, or cause of mischief, that occurs in a thing; as also ↓ عَارِضٌ: (TA:) [both signify also an accident of any kind:] pl. أَعْرَاضٌ. (TA.) b2: A thing's befalling, or hitting, unexpectedly. (O, K. [I follow the reading of the O, which is that of the K as given in the TA, and of my MS. copy of the K, أَنْ يُصِيبَ الشَّىْءُ عَلَى غِرَّةٍ; in preference to that in the CK, أَنْ تُصِيبَ الشَّىْءَ عَلَى غِرَّةٍ.]) You say, أَصَابَهُ سَهْمُ عَرَضٍ (S, A, O, K *) and سَهْمٌ عَرَضٌ, (A, TA,) and حَجَرُ عَرَضٍ (S, O) and حَجَرٌ عَرَضٌ, (TA,) [A random arrow, and a random stone, or] an arrow, and a stone, aimed at another, hit him: (S, O, K:) such as hits, or falls upon, a man without any one's shooting it, or casting it, is not thus termed. (L.) And مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ الرَّأْىِ عَرَضًا خَيْرٌ مِمَّا جَآءَكَ مُسْتَكْرَهًا, i. e. [The opinion] that comes to thee without consideration, or thought, [is better than that which comes to thee forced.] (TA.) And عُلِّقْتُهَا عَرَضًا I became attached to her (S, O, K) accidentally, or unintentionally, (S, O,) in consequence of her presenting herself to me (ISk, S, O, K) as a thing occurring without my seeking it. (ISk.) [See an ex., in a verse of Antarah, cited in the first paragraph of art. زعم; and another, in a verse of El-Aashà, cited in the first paragraph of art. علق.] b3: A thing that is not permanent: (Mgh, O, B, K.) so in the conventional language of the Muslim theologians: (Mgh:) opposed to جَوْهَرٌ: (TA:) or hence metaphorically applied by the Muslim theologians to (tropical:) a thing that has not permanence unless in, or by, the substance; [i. e., in the language of old logicians, an accident; an essential, and an accidental (as meaning a non-essential), property, or quality; or what modern logicians call a mode; whether it be, in their language, an essential mode or an accidental mode; which latter only they term “ an accident; ”] as colour, and taste: (B:) or, in the conventional language of the Muslim theologians (المُتَكَلِّمُون [expl. in the TA as signifying “ the philosophers,” from whom, however, they are generally distinguished]), a thing that subsists in, or by, another thing; (O, K;) as colours, and tastes, and smells, and sounds, and powers, and wills: (O: [and the like is said in the Msb:]) or, in philosophy, a thing that exists in its subject, or substance, and ceases therefrom without the latter's becoming impaired or annihilated; and also such as does not cease therefrom: the former kind being such as tawniness occasioned by an altered state of the body, and yellowness of complexion, and motion of a thing moving; and the latter kind, such as the blackness of pitch, and of [the beads called] سَبَج, and of the crow. (L.) b4: [Hence, An appertenance of any kind. b5: Hence also,] The frail goods (حُطَام) of the present world or state; (As, O, K;) and what a man acquires thereof: (As, O:) [so called as being not permanent:] or worldly goods or commodities, (AO, Msb,) of whatever kind, are thus called, with fet-h to the ر: (AO:) and any property or wealth, little or much, (S, O, K,) is thus called, (K,) or is called عَرَضُ الدُّنْيَا. (S, O.) See also عَرْضٌ, expl. as signifying “ a commodity,” or “ commodities ” or “ goods. ” One says, الدُّنْيَا عَرَضٌ حَاضِرٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا البَرُّ وَالفَاجِرُ [The world is a present frail good: the righteous and the unrighteous eat thereof]: (S, O, TA:) i. e. it has no permanence: a trad. related by Sheddád Ibn-Ows. (TA.) And in another trad. related by the same, it is said, لَيْسَ الغِنَى عَنْ كَثْرَةِ العَرَضِ

إِنَّمَا الغِنَى غِنَى النَّفْسِ [Richness is not from the abundance of worldly goods: richness is only richness of the soul]. (O, TA.) One says also, قَدْ فَاتَهُ العَرَضُ, (Yoo, S, L,) and ↓ العَرْضُ, but the former is the more approved, (L,) [The property, &c., (but see another meaning below,) had escaped him], which is from عَرْضُ الجُنْدِ, [see عَرَضَ,] like as one says قَبَضَ قَبْضًا and قَدْ أَلْقَاهُ فِى القَبَضِ: (Yoo, S:) [which seems to indicate that عَرَضٌ properly signifies مَعْرُوضٌ, like as قَبَضٌ signifies مَقْبُوضٌ.] b6: Booty; spoil. (O, K.) So in the Kur ix. 42: (O:) or it there signifies b7: i. q. مَطْلَبٌ [app. meaning A thing sought, or desired; and object of desire; rather than a place where a thing is sought]. (TA.) b8: I. q. طَمَعٌ [app. meaning A thing that is eagerly desired, or coveted: and also eager desire; or covetousness]. (AO, O, K.) So explained by some as occurring in the saying قَدْ فَاتَهُ العَرَضُ, mentioned above. (TA.) And the following verse is also cited as an ex., مَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو بَقَآءً لَا نَفَادَ لَهُ فَلَا يَكُنْ عَرَضُ الدُّنْيَا لَهُ شَجَنَا

[Whoso hopeth for continuance without cessation, let not the eager desire of worldly goods be to him a cause of anxiety]. (O, TA.) b9: A gift. (TA.) See also عُرَاضَةٌ. b10: هُوَ عَلَى عَرَضِ الوُجُودِ signifies عَلَى إِمْكَانِهِ [app. meaning It is in the condition of possibility of existence; for على seems to be here used in the sense of فِى, as in some other instances]; from أَعْرَضَ لَهُ meaning “ it became within his power,” &c. (Mgh.) And one says, هُوَ بِعَرَضٍ

أَنْ يَضِيعَ [He is exposed, or liable, to perish]. (Mgh voce ضَيَاعٌ.) b11: جَعَلَ الشَّىْءَ عَرَضًا لِلشَّىْءِ, or عَرْضًا, accord. to different copies of the K: see 2, in the latter half of the paragraph, in two places.

عُرُضٌ, (L, TA,) in the K, erroneously, ↓ عُرْضٌ, (TA,) A certain manner of going along, (K, TA,) towards one side, (TA,) approved in horses, but disapproved in camels. (K, TA.) b2: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ عَنْ عُرُضٍ: b3: and رَأَيْتُهُ فِى عُرُضِ النَّاسِ: see عُرْضٌ.

عُرْضَةٌ is of the measure فُعْلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعولٌ, like قُبْضَةٌ; (Bd, ii. 224;) and is applied to A thing that is set as an obstacle in the way of a thing: (Bd, TA:) and also to a thing that is exposed to a thing: (Bd:) or that is set as a butt, like the butt of archers. (TA.) You say, جَعَلْتُ فُلَانًا عُرْضَةً لِكَذَا, meaning نَصَبْتُهُ لَهُ; (S, O, K; *) i. e. I set such a one as an obstacle to such a thing: or as a butt for such a thing. (TA.) And هُوَ لَهُ دُونَهُ عُرْضَةٌ He is an obstacle to him intervening in the way of it. (S, O.) And فُلَانٌ عُرْضَةٌ لِلنَّاسِ Such a one is [a butt to men; i. e.] a person whom men cease not to revile: (S, O, Msb, K:) or a person to whom men address themselves to do evil, and whom they revile. (Az, TA.) And هُمْ ضُعَفَآءُ عُرْضَةٌ لِكُلِّ مُتَنَاوِلٍ

They are weak persons; persons who offer themselves as a prey to any one who would take them. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur [ii. 224], وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا اللّٰهُ عُرْضَةً لِأَيْمَانِكُمْ أَنْ تَبَرُّوا وَتَتَّقُوا وَتُصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ, (S, * &c.,) meaning نَصْبًا; (S, TA;) admitting the two significations of an obstacle and a butt: (TA:) i. e. And make not God an obstacle between you and that which may bring you near unto God, &c.: (O, K:) or make not God an obstacle to the performance of your oaths to be pious (O, Bd) and to fear God and to make reconciliation between men: or make not God an obstacle, because of your oaths, to your being pious &c.: (Bd:) or make not the swearing by God an obstacle to your being pious [&c.]: (Fr:) and Zj says the like of this: (L:) or عُرْضَةٌ signifies intervention with respect to good and evil; (Abu-l- 'Abbás, O, K;) and the meaning is, do not intervene by swearing by God every little while so as not to be pious &c.: (O, K, * TA:) or make not God an object of your oaths, by ordinary and frequent swearing by Him, (Bd,) or a butt for your oaths, like the butt of archers, (TA,) in order that ye may be pious &c.; for the habitual swearer emboldens himself against God, and is not pious &c.: (Bd:) or, as some say, the meaning is make not the mention of God a means of strengthening your oaths. (TA.) You say also, هٰذَا عُرْضَةٌ لَكَ as meaning This is a thing prepared for thy common, or ordinary, use. (O, TA.) b2: A purpose; an intention; or an object of desire, or of endeavour; [as though it were a butt;] syn. هِمَّةٌ. (S, O, K.) Hassán says, (S, O,) i. e. Ibn-Thábit, (O, TA,) وَقَالَ اللّٰهُ قَدْ يَسَّرْتُ جُنْدًا هُمُ الأَنْصَارُ عُرْضَتُهَا اللِّقَآءُ [And God said I have prepared an army: they are the Ansár; whose purpose, or the object of whose desire, is conflict with the unbelievers]. (S, O, TA. [In one copy of the S, in the place of يَسَّرْتُ, I find أَعْدَدْتُ, which signifies the same.]) b3: A pretext; an excuse. (MA.) b4: One says also, فُلَانٌ عُرْضَةُ ذَاكَ, (S, O,) or عُرْضَةٌ لِذَاكَ, (S, O, K,) Such a one is possessed of the requisite ability and strength for that: (S, O, K:) and عُرْضَةٌ لِلشَّرِّ possessed of strength to do evil, or mischief: and in like manner عُرْضَةٌ is applied to two things, and to more. (TA.) And فُلَانَةُ عُرْضَةٌ لِلزَّوْجِ (S, O, K) Such a female is possessed of sufficient strength for the husband; [i. e., to be married;] (TA;) or لِلنِّكَاحِ for marriage. (A.) And نَاقَةٌ عُرْضَةٌ لِلْحِجَارَةِ A she-camel having strength enough for [going upon] the stones. (S, O, K.) And [in like manner] أَسْفَارٍ ↓ نَاقَةٌ عُرْضُ A she-camel having strength sufficient for journeys. (S, O, K. *) and هٰذَا البَعِيرِ السَّفَرُ وَالحَجَرُ ↓ عُرْضُ (S, O, K) The strength of this camel is sufficient for journeying and for going over stone. (IB.) A2: عُرْضَةٌ also signifies A kind of trick, or artifice, in wrestling, (S, O, K,) by which one throws down men. (S, O.) عَرْضِىٌّ [in the CK عَرْضٰى] A kind of cloths or garments. (S, O, K.) b2: And Certain of the appertenances (مَرَافِق, O, K) and chambers (O) of the house: a word of the dial. of El-'Irák: (O, K:) unknown to the Arabs. (O.) عُرْضِىٌّ A camel that goes obliquely, or inclining towards one side, because not yet completely trained: (S, O, K:) or submissive in the middle part [or body, so as to be easy to ride, but] difficult of management: and perverse, untoward, or intractable: and with ة, a she-camel not completely trained: (TA:) or difficult to manage; refractory. (S, O, K.) See also عَرُوضٌ. b2: One who does not sit steadily, or firmly, upon the saddle; (IAar, O, K;) inclining at one time this way, and at another time that way. (IAar, O.) يَمْشِى بِالعَرْضِيَّةِ, and ↓ بِالعُرْضِيَّةِ, the latter from Lh, He goes sideways. (TA.) عُرْضِيَّةٌ: see what next precedes. Refractoriness, and a random or heedless manner of going, by reason of pride: in a horse, the going sideways: and in a she-camel, the state of being untrained: (TA:) and in a man, [so expressly shown in the S and TA; but in the CK, قِيلَ is erroneously put for فِيكَ;] what resembles roughness, ungentleness, or awkwardness; want of due care, by reason of haste; (syn. عَجْرَفِيَّةٌ;) and pride; and refractoriness. (Az, S, O, K.) A2: [See also عَرْضِىٌّ.]

عِرَضَّى, with fet-h to the ر; (O;) or عِرِضَّى, like زِمِكَّى; (K;) Briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness. (IAar, O, K. [See also عِرَضْنَةٌ.]) b2: and [app. for ذُو عِرَضَّى] meaning also Brisk, lively, or sprightly. (TA. [See, again, عِرَضْنَةٌ.]) عِرْضَنٌ; fem. with ة: see عِرْضٌ, last sentence.

عِرَضْنَةٌ An oblique course or motion: (A'Obeyd, L, TA:) and briskness, liveliness, sprightliness: and عِرِضْنَةٌ signifies the same. (TA. [See also عِرَِضَّى.]) One says, يَمْشِى العِرَضْنَةَ and ↓ العِرَضْنَى He goes along with a proud gait, (S, O, K,) inclining towards one side, (S, O,) by reason of his briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness. (S, O, K.) And ↓ تَعْدُو العِرَضْنَى and العِرَضْنَةَ and العِرَضْنَاةَ [perhaps correctly العِرَضْنَاتَ] She (a mare) runs in a sidelong manner, one time in one direction and another time in another. (O, TA.) and يَعْدُو العِرَضْنَةَ He (a man) runs so that he outstrips. (L, TA.) And نَظَرْتُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ عِرَضْنَةً I looked towards such a one from the outer angle of my eye. (S, O, K. *) The dim. of ↓ عِرَضْنَى is ↓ عُرَيْضِنٌ; the ن being retained because it is a letter of quasi-coordination, and the ى suppressed because it is not such. (S, O.) b2: Also, [app. for ذَاتُ عِرَضْنَةٍ,] A she-camel that goes along obliquely, (S, O, K,) by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness: pl. عِرَضْنَاتٌ. (S, O. [See, again, عِرَضَّى.] But A'Obeyd disallows the application of this epithet to a she-camel. (TA in art. عرضن.) b3: And A woman that has become broad by reason of her fatness and plumpness. (TA.) عِرَضْنى: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

عُرَاضٌ: see عَرِيضٌ, in four places: A2: see also عُرْضٌ, in the latter half of the paragraph.

عِرَاضٌ: see عُرْضٌ, in the first sentence, and again, in four places, in the latter half of the paragraph. b2: أَخَذَ فِى عِرَاضِ كَلَامِهِ He began to say the like of that which he [another] had said: or, as in the O, he matched him, and equalled him, by saying the like of what he had said. (TA.) [See also عَرُوضٌ.] b3: Also A certain brand; (S, O, K;) or, (K,) accord. to Yaakoob, (S, O,) a line upon the thigh of a camel, crosswise; (S, O, K;) or upon the neck, crosswise. (Ibn-Er-Rummánee, TA.) b4: And An iron with which the feet of a camel are marked in order that his foot-prints may be known. (O, K.) عَرُوضٌ: see عُرْضٌ, first sentence, and three of the examples which follow it, near the middle of the paragraph: b2: see also عَارِضٌ, in the sentence commencing with “ The side of the cheek. ”

b3: Also A road in a mountain: (S:) or in the side, or lowest part, (عُرْض,) of a mountain, (O, K,) or, as some say, a part thereof lying across, or obliquely, (مَا اعْتَرَضَ مِنْهُ, TA,) in a narrow place: (O, K:) and a road down a descent, or declivity: (TA:) or [simply] a road: (Ham p. 346:) pl. عُرُضٌ (TA) and أَعَارِيضُ. (Ham ubi suprà.) Hence the phrase in a trad. of Aboo-Hureyreh, فَأَخَذَ فِى عَرُوضٍ آخَرَ (assumed tropical:) And he took another way of speech. (TA.) b4: The place that is over against one, or on the opposite side to one, as he goes along. (S, O, K.) A2: A she-camel that takes to a side, or tract, different from that which her rider would traverse; for which reason this epithet is applied to her: (O:) or that goes to the right and left, and does not keep to the road: (IAth:) or that has not been trained: (S, O, K:) or that has received some training, but is not thoroughly trained: (ISk:) or such as is termed ↓ عُرْضِيَّة, stubborn in the head, but submissive in her middle part; that is loaded; and then the other loaded camels are driven on; and if a man ride her, she goes straight forward, and her rider has not the power of exercising his own free will [in managing her]. (Sh.) To such a camel, 'Omar likened a class of his subjects. (TA.) And 'Amr Ibn-Ahmar El-Báhilee says, أُخِبُّ ذَلُولًا أَوْ عَرُوضًا أَرُوضُهَا [I make a submissive one to go the pace termed خَبَب, or an untrained one I train]; meaning that he recites two poems; one of which he has made easy, and the other whereof is difficult: J gives a different reading, أُسِيرُ عَسِيرًا, meaning أُسَيِّرُ; with the same explanation that is given above, of the former reading. (IB, O.) b2: A camel, (S, O, TA,) in the K, erroneously, a sheep or goat, (TA,) that eats the thorns (S, O, K, TA) when herbage is unattainable by him. (S, O.) b3: And i. q. عَتُودٌ [A yearling goat, &c.]. (TA [See also عَرِيضٌ.]) A3: Also i. q. كَثِيرٌ, (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K,) [as meaning A large quantity or number] of a thing [or of things], (K.) [or large in number,] as in the phrase حَىٌّ عَرُوضٌ [A tribe large in number]. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) A4: and Clouds; syn. سَحَابٌ; (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K;) and غَيْمٌ. (K.) A5: And Food. (Fr, O, K.) A6: عَرُوضُ كَلَامٍ The meaning, or intended sense, of speech; syn. فَحْوَاهُ, (ISk, S, O, K,) and مَعْنَاهُ: (ISk, S, O:) as also كَلَامٍ ↓ مِعْرَاضُ, (K,) of which the pl. is مَعَارِيضُ and مَعَارِضُ. (TA.) One says عَرَفْتُ ذَٰلِكَ فِى عَرُوضِ كَلَامِهِ [I knew that in the intended sense of his speech]; (ISk, S, O;) and كَلَامِهِ ↓ فِى مِعْرَاضِ; (A, O;) and in like manner, مَعَارِضِ كَلَامِهِ: (L, TA:) and عَرَفْتُهُ فِى

كَلَامِهِ ↓ مِعْرَاضِ and فى لَحْنِ كلام and فى نَحْوِ كلامه signify the same. (Msb.) [See also مِعْرَاضٌ.]

A7: هٰذِهِ المَسْأَلَة عَرُوضُ هٰذِهِ This question is the like of this. (TA.) [See also عِرَاضٌ.]

A8: عَرُوضٌ also signifies The transverse pole or piece of wood (عَارضَة) which is in the middle of a tent, and which is its main support. (Aboo-Is-hák.) b2: And hence, (Aboo-Is-hák,) The middle portion [or foot] of a verse; (Aboo-Is-hák, O;) for the بَيْت of poetry is constructed after the manner of the بَيْت inhabited by the Arabs, which is of pieces of cloth; and as the عروض of the latter is the strongest part, so should that of the former be; and accordingly we see that a deficiency in the ضَرْب is more frequent than it is in the عروض: (Aboo-Is-hák:) the last foot of the first half or hemistich (S, K) of a verse; (S;) whether perfect or altered: (K:) some make it to be the طَرَائِق of poetry, and its عَمُود: (TA:) [i. e. they liken it to these parts of the tents:] it is fem.: (K:) or sometimes masc.: (L:) the pl. is أَعَارِيضُ; (S, O, K;) contr. to rule, as though pl. of إِعْرِيضٌ; and one may use as its pl. أَعَارِضُ. (S, O.) b3: Also [The science of prosody, or versification;] the science of the rules whereby the perfect measures of Arabic verse are known from those which are broken; (Msb;) the standard whereby verse is measured: (S, O, K:) because it is compared (يُعَارَضُ) therewith: (S, O:) or because what is correct in measure is thereby distinguished from what is broken: (K: [in which some other reasons are added, too futile, in my opinion, to deserve mention: I think it more probable that عروض is used by a synecdoche for شِعْرٌ, as being the most essential part thereof; and then, elliptically, for عِلْمُ العَرُوضِ, which is the more common term for the science:]) it is fem.; and has no pl., because it is a gen. n. (S, O.) A9: See also عَارِضَةٌ; second and two following sentences.

A10: العَرُوضُ is a name of Mekkeh and El-Medeeneh, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) and El-Yemen, (Msb, TA,) with what is around them. (S, O, K, TA.) عُرُوضٌ [thus app., but written without any vowel-sign to the ع,] The quality, in a she-camel, of being untrained. (L, TA. [See عَرُوضٌ, near the beginning.]) عَرِيضٌ Broad, or wide; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K; *) as also ↓ عُرَاضٌ; (S, O, K;) like as one says كَبِيرٌ and كُبَارٌ: (S, O:) fem. of the former, (S, Msb,) and of the latter, (S, K,) with ة: (S, Msb, K:) the pl. of عَرِيضٌ is عِرَاضٌ, like as كِرَامٌ is pl. of كَرِيمٌ. (Msb.) You say, عُرَاضَةٌ and ↓ عُرَاضَةٌ [A broad, or wide, bow]. (S.) and ↓ عُرَاضَاتٌ, (TA,) or أَثَرًا ↓ عُرَاضَاتٌ, in which the latter word is in the accus. case as a specificative, (S, O, TA,) meaning Camels whose foot-marks are broad. (S, O, TA.) And فُلَانٌ عَرِيضُ البِطَانِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is rich; or in a state of competence: (A, TA:) or possessed of much property. (S, * O, K, * TA.

(Mgh.) and عَرِيضُ الوِسَادِ (tropical:) Sleepy: (TA:) or (assumed tropical:) stupid, dull, or wanting in intelligence. (Msb in art. وسد.) دُعَآءٌ عَرِيضٌ, occurring in the Kur [xli. 51], means (assumed tropical:) Large, or much, prayer, or supplication: (K, * TA:) or in this instance we may say long. (L.) A2: Also A goat (As, O, K) that is a year old, (K,) or about a year old, (As, O,) and that takes [or crops] of the herbage (As, O, K) and trees [or shrubs] (As, O) with the side of his mouth: (K:) or (O, K) such as is termed عَتُود [q. v.], (S, O,) when he rattles, and desires copulation: (S, O, K:) or a [young] goat above such as is weaned and below such as is termed جَذَع [q. v.]: or such as has pastured and become strong: or such as is termed جَذَع: or a young goat when he leaps the female: it is applied only to a male: the female is termed عَرِيضَةٌ: with the people of El-Hijáz it means peculiarly such as is gelded: it is also applied to a gazelle that has nearly become a ثَنِىّ [q. v.]: (TA:) pl. عِرْضَانٌ and عُرْضَانٌ.

(As.) You say, اِشْتَرِ عُرَاضَةً لِأَهْلِكَ Purchase thou a present to take to thy family. (S, O.) And سَأَلْتُهُ عُراضَةَ مَالٍ and مَالٍ ↓ عَرْضَ and مَالٍ ↓ عَرَضَ [I asked him for a present of property] فَلَمْ يُعْطِنِيهِ [and he did not give it to me]. (L.) [See also Ham p. 103, l. 8.]

عَرُضِىٌّ Of, or relating to, prosody, or the art of versification. A prosodist.]

عُرَيْضِنٌ dim. of عِرَضْنَى, q. v., voce عِرَضْنَةٌ. (S, O.) عَرُوضَاوَاتٌ Places in which grow أَعْرَاض [pl. of عِرْضٌ] i. e. the [trees called] أَثْل and أَرَاك and حَمْض. (TA.) عِرِّيضٌ Forward; officious; meddling; a busybody: (TA in art. تيح:) one who addresses himself to do evil to men. (S, O, K.) عَارِضٌ [Showing its breadth, or width; (see عَرَضَ, first signification;) or] having its side apparent: (TA:) and [in like manner] ↓ مُعْرِضٌ, q. v., anything showing its breadth, or width: [or its side:] (TA:) [and hence, both signify appearing. (See again عَرَضَ.)] b2: A collection of clouds appearing, or presenting itself, or extending sideways, (↓ مُعْتَرِضٌ,) in the horizon; (S, O, K;) overpeering: (TA:) or a collection of clouds which one sees in a side of the sky, like that which is termed جُلْبٌ, except that the former is white, whereas the latter inclines to blackness, and is narrower than the former, and more distant: (Az:) or a collection of clouds that comes over against one (مُعَارِضًا) in the sky, unexpectedly: (El-Báhilee, O:) or a collection of clouds that appears, or presents itself, or extends sideways, (يَعْتَرِضُ,) in the sky, like as does a mountain, before it covers the sky, is called سَحَابٌ عَارِضٌ, and also حَبِىٌّ: (As, O:) pl. عَوَارِضُ. (TA.) [See also عَرْضٌ and عِرْضٌ.] In the phrase عَارِضٌ مُمْطِرُنَا, in the Kur [xlvi. 23], ممطرنا means مُمْطِرٌ لَنَا; for as being determinate it cannot be an epithet to عَارِضٌ, which is indeterminate: and the like of this the Arabs do only in the instances of nouns derived from verbs; so that you may not say هٰذَا رَجُلٌ غُلَامُنَا. (S, O.) b3: See also عَرْضٌ, in the sentence commencing with “ A mountain,” in two places: b4: and again, shortly after. b5: A gift appearing (As, S, O, K) from a person. (As, S, O.)

In the saying of 'Alee, يَقْدَحُ الشَّكُّ فِى

مِنْ شُبْهَةٍ ↓ قَلْبِهِ بِأَوَّلِ عَارِضَةٍ, the word عارضة may perhaps be an inf. n., [or a quasi-inf. n.,] like عَاقِبَةٌ and عَافِيَةٌ: (TA:) [so that the meaning may be Doubt makes an impression upon his heart at the first occurrence of dubiousness.] b7: Whatever faces one, of a thing: (TA, and so in some copies of the K: in other copies of the K, this signification is given to ↓ عَارِضَةٌ:) or anything facing one. (O.) b8: Intervening; preventing: an intervening, or a preventing, thing; an obstacle: (TA:) a thing that prevents one's going on; such as a mountain and the like. (Msb.) [Its application to a cloud, and some other applications to which reference has been made above, may be derived from this signification, or from that next preceding, or from the first.] b9: I. q. عُرْضٌ, in the first of the senses assigned to this latter above; as also ↓ عَارِضَةٌ. (The former accord. to some copies of the K: the latter accord. to others: but both accord. to the TA.) b10: What appears, of the face, (K,) or of the mouth, accord. to the L, (TA,) when one laughs. (L, K, TA: but in some copies of the K, and in the O, this signification is given to ↓ عَارِضَةٌ.) b11: The side of the cheek (K, TA) of a man; (TA;) as also ↓ عَارِضَةٌ; (O, L, K;) the two sides of the two cheeks of a man being called the عَارِضَانِ, (Msb, TA,) or the ↓ عَارِضَتَانِ: (S:) the two sides of the face: (Lh, O, K:) or the side of the face; as also ↓ عَرُوضٌ; the two together being called the عَارِضَانِ: (Lh, TA:) or this last signifies the two sides of the mouth: or the two sides of the beard: pl. عَوَارِضُ. (TA.) خَفِيفُ العَارِضَيْنِ means Light, or scanty, in the hair of the two sides of the cheeks, (S, O, Msb,) and of the beard; (O;) being elliptical. (Msb.) But in a certain trad., in which a happy quality of a man is said to be خِفَّةُ عَارِضَيْهِ, the meaning is said to be (tropical:) His activity in praising and glorifying God; i. e. his not ceasing to move the sides of his cheeks by praising and glorifying God. (IAth, on the authority of El-Khattábee; and O.) b12: The side of the neck; (K;) the two sides thereof being called the عَارِضَانِ: (IDrd, O:) pl. as above. (TA.) [See also عُرْضٌ, near the beginning.] b13: The tooth that is in the side of the mouth: (TA; and K, as in some copies of the latter; but in other copies, this signification is given to ↓ عَارِضَةٌ:) pl. as above: (K:) or the side of the mouth; (S;) and so, as some say, عَوَارِضُ; (TA;) [meaning the teeth in the side of the mouth; for] you say اِمْرَأَةٌ نَقِيَّةُ العَارِضِ, (S,) and العَوَارِضِ, (TA,) a woman clean in the side of the mouth: (S, TA:) and Jereer describes a woman as polishing her عَارِضَانِ with a branch of a beshámeh, [a tree of which the twigs are used for cleaning the teeth,] meaning, as Aboo-Nasr says, the teeth that are after the central incisors, which latter are not of the عوارض: or, accord. to ISk, عَارِضٌ signifies the canine tooth and the ضِرْس [or bicuspid] next thereto: or, as some say, what are between the central incisor and the [first] ضرس [which is a bicuspid]: (S, O:) some say that the عوارض are the central incisors, as being [each] in the side of the mouth: others, that they are the teeth next to the sides of the mouth: others, that they are four teeth next to the canine teeth, and followed by the أَضْرَاس: Lh says that they are of the اضراس: others, that they are the teeth that are between the central incisors and the اضراس: and others, that they are eight teeth in each side; four above, and four below. (TA [from the O &c.].) A2: عَارِضٌ as applied to a she-camel, or a sheep or goat: see the paragraph next following.

(S.) ↓ عَرُوض has the signification above assigned to it in the saying, فُلَانٌ رَكُوضٌ بِلَا عَرُوضٍ [Such a one is running without any want that has occurred to him]. (S, O. [In the K, in the place of ركوض, we find رَبُوضٌ, which I think a mistake.]) [In Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 555, we find ↓ رَكُوضٌ فِى كُلِّ عَرُوضٍ, which is expl. as meaning Running swiftly in every region; and said to be applied to him who disseminates evil, or mischief, among men.]

A2: A she-camel having a fracture or a disease, (S, O, K,) for which reason it is slaughtered; (S;) as also ↓ عَارِضٌ: (O, K:) and in like manner, a sheep or goat: (TA:) pl. عَوَارِضُ. (S.) It is opposed to عَبِيطٌ, which is one that is slaughtered without its having any malady. (S, O.) One says, بَنُو فُلَانٍ

لَا يَأْكُلُونَ إِلَّا العَوَارِضَ [The sons of such a one do not eat any but camels such as are slaughtered on account of disease]; reproaching them for not slaughtering camels except on account of disease befalling them. (S, O.) b2: عَوَارِضُ, applied to camels, also signifies That eat the [trees called]

عِضَاه, (S, L,) wherever they find them. (L.) A3: [A thing lying, or extending, across, or athwart; any cross piece of wood &c.: so in the present day.] b2: The [lintel, or] piece of wood which holds the عِضَادَتَانِ [or two side-posts], above, of a door; corresponding to the أُسْكُفَّة [or threshold]; (S, L;) the upper piece of wood in which the door turns. (O, K. [In some copies of the latter, this signification is erroneously given to عَارِضٌ.]) The عَارِضَتَانِ of a door are also [said to be] the same as the عِضَادَتَانِ. (TA, voce عَتَبَةٌ.) b3: A [rafter, or] single one of the عَوَارِض of a roof: (S, O, K: [but in some copies of the last, and in the TA, this signification is erroneously given to عَارِضٌ:]) the عوارض of a house are the pieces of wood of its roof, which are laid across; one of which is called عَارِضَةٌ: and عَارِضٌ [a mistranscription for عَوَارِضُ] also signifies the سَقَائِف [or pieces of wood which form the roof] of a [vehicle of the kind called]

مَحْمِل. (L.) A4: Also, (S, and so in some copies of the K,) or ↓ عَارِضٌ, (as in other copies of the K,) or both, (TA,) Hardiness: (S, K, TA:) and this is what is meant by its being said, in [some copies of] the K, that عَارِضٌ is also syn. with عَارِضَةٌ; (TA;) [for in some copies of the K, after several explanations of العَارِضُ, we find وَالعَارِضَةُ وَالسِّنُّ الَّتِى فِى عُرْضِ الفَمِ; whereas, in other copies, the و before السِّنُّ is omitted:] courage; or courage and energy: (S, K, TA:) power of speech: (S:) perspicuity, or chasteness, of speech; and eloquence: (K, TA:) or the former signifies intuitive knowledge (بَدِيهَةٌ): or determination, resolution, or decision: (A:) and the trimming of speech or language, and the removal of its faults: and good judgment. (TA.) You say, فُلَانٌ ذُو عَارِضَةٍ (Az, IDrd, S, O, TA) Such a one is possessed of hardiness; (S, TA;) as also ↓ ذو عَارِضٍ; (TA;) and of courage, or courage and energy; and of power of speech: (S:) or of eloquence, (Az, IDrd, O,) and perspicuity, or chasteness, of speech. (IDrd, O.) And فُلَانٌ شَدِيدُ العَارِضَةِ Such a one is hardy; (Kh, O, TA;) as also ↓ شَدِيدُ العَارِضِ; (TA;) and courageous, or courageous and energetic. (Kh, TA.) أَعْرَاضُ الكَلَامِ: see مِعْرَاضٌ. b2: أَعْرَاضٌ is pl. of عَرْضٌ and of عُرْضٌ and of عِرْضٌ and of عَرَضٌ. b3: أَعْرَاضُ الشَّجَرِ means The upper parts of the trees [or shrubs]. (K.) مَعْرِضٌ The place of the appearance, [or occurrence,] and of the showing, or exhibiting, or manifesting, and of the mentioning, and of the intending, or purposing, of a thing. (Msb.) You say, قَتَلْتُهُ فِى مَعْرِضِ كَذَا I slew him in the place of the appearance [or occurrence &c.] of such a thing. (Msb.) And ذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ إِنَّمَا يَكُونُ فِى مَعْرِضِ التَّعْظِيمِ The praise and glorification of God is only in the place [or case] of the appearance, [or of the manifesting,] and of the intending, or purposing, of magnifying. (Msb.) [And hence, فِى مَعْرِضِ كَذَا also signifies In the time, or case, or on the occasion, of the appearance, &c., of such a thing. and In the state, or condition, or manner, which is indicative of such a thing: thus virtually agreeing with the phrase فِى مِعْرَضِ كَذَا, q. v. infrà.] b2: Also A place for the sale of slaves or beasts. (MA.) A2: And Pasturage that renders the cattle in no need of their being fed with fodder. (TA.) مُعْرِضٌ Anything showing its breadth, or width; [or its side; as also ↓ عَارِضٌ.] (TA. See the latter word.) [And hence, Appearing, as also the latter.] And i. q. مُعْتَرِضٌ [app. as signifying Presenting itself; or occurring]. (Sh.) and Anything putting its breadth, or width, [or side, (as is shown by an explanation of أَعْرَضَ,)] in one's power. (TA.) You say, الشَّىْءُ مُعْرِضٌ لَكَ, meaning The thing is in thy power; apparent to thee; not offering resistance to thee. (IAth, O. *) b2: And طَأْ مُعْرِضًا حَيْثُ شِئْتَ [Tread thou or] put thy feet where thou wilt, fearing nothing, for it is in thy power to do so. (S, O.) b3: اِدَّانَ مُعْرِضًا (occurring in a saying of 'Omar, K, or, as some relate it, دَانَ مُعْرِضًا, K in art. دين,) means He bought upon credit, or borrowed, or sought or demanded a loan, [doing so (TA)] of whomsoever he could, (Az, S, A, Mgh, O,) not caring what might be the consequence: (S, O:) or addressing himself to any one who came in his way: (Sh, K:) or turning away from such as said Thou shalt not buy on credit, or borrow: (IAth:) or avoiding payment: (TA:) or from any quarter that was easy and practicable to him, without caring, (O, K,) and without being perplexed: (O:) or he incurred the debt without caring for not paying it, or for what might be the consequence: (As:) or he contracted a debt with every one who presented himself to him: (K in art. دين:) Sh says that the making معرضا to signify مُمْكِنًا is improbable; because it is in the accus. case as a denotative of state with respect to [the agent implied in the verb] ادّان; and if you explain it as meaning he took it from him who enabled him, then معرضا applies to him whom he accosts, for he is the ممكن; [he suggests also, that the meaning may be he bought upon credit, or borrowed, largely; for] he adds that معرضا may be from أَعْرَضَ ثَوْبُ المَلْبَسِ, signifying اِتَّسَعَ and عَرُضَ. (TA.) b4: أَرْضٌ مُعْرِضَةٌ, or مُعْرَضَةٌ, (K, TA, [the former only in the CK,]) means Land wherein is herbage which the camels, or the like, depasture [app. at random] when traversing it. (O, K.)

(Har p. 129.) [and hence, فِى مِعْرَضِ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) In the guise of such a thing, used tropically, virtually agreeing with the phrase فِى مَعْرِضِ كَذَا in a sense expl. above.] See also مِعْرَاضٌ, last sentence but one.

مُعَرَّضٌ [pass. part. n. of 2, q. v.] Camels (نَعَمٌ) branded with the mark called عِرَاض. (S, O, K.) A2: Also Flesh-meat not well and thoroughly cooked: (ISk, S, O, K:) occurring in a verse (S, O) of Es-Suleyk Ibn-Es-Sulakeh, (O,) as some relate it; but accord. to others it is with ص; (S, O;) and this latter is the more correct. (O.) A3: مُعَرَّضَةٌ A virgin before she is veiled, or concealed: for she is once exhibited to the people of the tribe in order that some one or more may become desirous of her, and then they veil her, or conceal her. (TA.) مُعَرِّضٌ [act. part. n. of 2, q. v.]. A poet describes a she-camel carrying dates, and having outgone the other camels, so that the crows, or ravens, alighted upon her, and ate the dates, as being مِنْ مُعَرِّضَاتِ الغِرْبَانِ, as though she were of those feeding the crows, or ravens, of what is termed عُرَاضَة, q. v. (S.) A2: Also the circumciser of a boy: (K:) [or] so ↓ مُعْرِضٌ. (O:) مِعْرَاضٌ An arrow having no feathers (As, S, Mgh, O, Msb, K) nor head, (As,) slender at the two extremities, and thick in the middle, (O, K,) being in form like the wooden implement wherewith cotton is separated from its seeds, or is separated and loosened [by striking therewith the string of a bow], (O, TA,) which goes sideways, (Mgh, [in the O and TA, مُسْتَوِيًا, app. a mistranscription, for مُسْتَعْرِضًا,]) striking with its عَرْض [or middle part, unless this be a mistake for عُرْض, or side], (Mgh, [in my copy of which, عرض is without any vowel-sign,] and K,) not with its extremity: (Mgh, K:) sometimes, it strikes with its thick middle part in such a manner that it breaks and crushes what it strikes so that it is like the thing that is beaten to death; and if the object of the chase be near to it, it strikes it with the place of the head thereof: if it make a hole, the game smitten with it may be eaten; but not if it strike with a middle part (بِعَرْضٍ). (O, TA.) A2: An oblique, indirect, obscure, ambiguous, or equivocal, mode of speech; as when thou askest a man, “Hast thou seen such a one? ” and he, having seen him, and disliking to lie, answers, “ Verily such a one is seen: ” (Msb:) from عَرَّضَ [q. v.]: (Msb, El-Munáwee: the latter in explaining a trad., q. v. infrà:) i. q. تَوْرِيَةٌ [signifying as above; or the pretending one thing and meaning another; or the using a word, an expression, or a phrase, which has an obvious meaning, and intending thereby another meaning to which it applies but which is contrary to the obvious one]; the original meaning of which is concealment: (Msb:) or language whereof one part resembles another in the meanings: (O, TA: [in the TA immediately follows the exemplification cited above, from the Msb; whence it seems that this explanation is itself somewhat of a معراض, meaning what it does not clearly express:]) or المَعَارِيضُ فِى الكَلَامِ [thus, with the pl. form, in two copies of the S, and in the TA,] signifies التَّوْرِيَةُ بِالشَّىْءِ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ [the pretending, or making believe, a thing instead of another thing]: (S:) and مَعَارِضُ الكَلَامِ and ↓ أَعْرَاضُهُ signify the same as مَعَارِيضُهُ. (TA.) [مَعَارِضُ is a contraction of مَعَارِيضُ, like as مِعْرضٌ is said to be of مِعْرَاضٌ when syn. therewith.] It is said in a prov., (S,) a trad., (TA,) إِنَّ فِى

المَعَارِيضِ لَمَنْدُوحَةً عَنِ الكَذِبِ [Verily, in oblique, indirect, obscure, ambiguous, or equivocal, modes of speech is ample scope, freedom, or liberty, (سَعَةٌ, S,) to avoid lying; or, as is said in the L in art. ندح, that which renders one in no need of lying]. (S, Msb.) One says also, عَرَفْتُهُ فِى

مِعْرَاضِ كَلَامِهِ, expl. voce عَرُوضٌ which see in three places, and كَلَامِهِ ↓ فِى مِعْرَضِ, rejecting the ا: this latter is said by some of the learned to be a metaphorical expression, from مِعْرَضٌ signifying the “ garment in which girls are displayed,” as though the meaning were (tropical:) [I knew it] in the form, or manner, and guise, and mould, of his speech; but this does not obtain in all kinds of speech; for it may not be said in cases of reviling; indeed it would be bad, in these cases, to use as a metaphor the garment of adornment: therefore the proper way is to say that مِعْرَضٌ is a contraction of مِعْرَاضٌ. (Msb.) One also says الأَلْفَاظُ مَعَارِيضُ المَعَانِى (tropical:) [Words are the robes of meanings]: and this phrase also is [said to be] taken from مِعْرَضٌ signifying the “ garment in which a girl is displayed; ” because words adorn meanings. (TA.) مُعَارِضٌ A camel that does not go straightly in the file, or series, but takes to the right and left: (A:) or a she camel such as is termed عَلُوق; that makes a show of affection with her nose [by smelling her young one], (تَرْأَمُ بِأَنْفِهَا,) and refuses to yield her milk. (AA, O, K.) سَحَابٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فِى الأُفُقِ: i. q. عَارِضٌ, q. v. b2: [جُمْلَةٌ مُعْتَرِضَةٌ A parenthetic clause.] b3: فُلَانٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فِى خُلُقِهِ [Such a one is habitually cross, or perverse, in his disposition, in every case,] is said of a man when everything of his affairs displeases thee. (TA.) b4: هَوًى مُعْتَرِضٌ Love that befalls at first sight, and captivates the heart at once unless it quit it quickly as it seized it quickly. (Ham p. 551.)
