مقصورة: في المساجد: حجرة محاطة بسياج هي مكان الأمير حين يؤم الناس في الصلاة. وهي في الموضع الذي يجلس فيه جماعة المرتلين (الخورس) في كنائسنا. وتوجد أيضا كلمة قورة وقد فسرت بمقصورة المحراب (سيمونيه ص354) وأول من أنشأ المقصورة معاوية فيما يقال على إثر محاولة الخارجي اغتياله في المسجد بضربة بالسيف. (المقدمة 2: 62 مع تعليقه السيد دي سلان، مملوك 1، 1: 164، 2، 1: 283، لين عادات 1: 116، فوك).
وتوجد في المساجد الكبيرة أحيانا عدد من المقصورات، ففي جامع دمشق ثلاث مقصورات، يجتمع في إحداها السادة الحنفية للتدريس (مملوك 2، 1: 283)، وأن في جامع قرطبة مقصورات للنساء. (المقري 1: 360، 361).

مقاصري أو مقاصري: وصف يوصف به خشب الصندل الأبيض، أو الصندل الليموني اللون وهو أصهب اللون. (الكالا) وفيه صندل مقاصري أي صندل ابيض. وعند ابن وافد (ص19 ق) وفي منهاج الدكان (مخطوطة رقم 1532) في مادة جوارشن صندل: صفحة صندل مقاصري، وفي رحلة ابن بطوطة (4: 149): صفحة صغيرة فيها الصندل المقاصري. وعند ابن الجوزي (ص143 و): الصندل جيده المقاصري الأبيض، وفي رحلة ابن بطوطة (3: 250): منبر من الصندل الأبيض المقاصري.
وعند شكوري (ص211 و، ص214 و): صندل أصفر مقاصري.
وكان دودنيس يعرف هذه الكلمة لأنه في كلامه عن خشب الصندل يقول (1548): (الصنف الأصفر الباهت منه ويسمى في الصيدليات: Santalum citrinum.
وباللاتينية: santalum pallidum أو santalum odoratum وبعضهم يطلق عليه الوصف العربي مها سري، ومشازري، ومكاسري، أو مزفراني، وهذه الأخيرة هي مزغفراني أما كلمة مقاصري فقد ذكرها النويري (مخطوطة رقم 273 ص796) فقال: (يوجد عدة أصناف من الصندل أجوده الصندل الأصفر كأنه مصبوغ بالزعفران ورائحته عطرية ويسمى المقاصيري) ولم تتفق الآراء حول أصل هذه الكلمة، فبعضهم يقول إنها نسبة إلى بلد يسمى مقاصير، وبعضهم يزعم إن أحد الخلفاء العباسيين صنع من هذا الخشب مقاصير لزوجاته ومحضياته الأثيرات لديه ولذلك أطلق هذا الوصف على الصندل فقيل صندل مقاصيري.
والرأي الأول هو الأفضل لأنهم كانوا يجلبون هذا الخشب من بلدين في أقاصي الهند أحدهما اسمه مقاصير والآخر الجور، ومن هذا قيل لهذين الصنفين من الصندل المقاصيري والجوري وهذا الأخير هو الأبيض. ومن سفالة يجلب هذان الصنفان من الصندل. وكان العرب يجلبون هذا الخشب من أفريقية (انظر كرونتيز المجلد 136 ص95) وفي النص الذي لدينا يراد بها سفالة الهند كما يقول ابن البيطار (2: 224).

(Kull p. 128.) [And ↓ قصّر دُونَهُ He fell short of reaching, or attaining, it: see an ex. voce يَعْقُوبٌ.] [Hence also,] قَصَرَتْ بِنَا النَّفَقَةُ The money for expenses [fell short of what we required;] did not enable us to attain our object; (Msb;) meaning, that they were unable to pay the expenses: (Mgh:) and بِهِ ↓ قَصَّرَ

(M, K.) A5: قَصَرَهُ, (S, M, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, M,) inf. n. قَصْرٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) He confined, restricted, limited, kept within certain bounds or limits, restrained, withheld, hindered or prevented, him, or it; syn. حَبَسَهُ. (S, M, Msb, K. *) It is said in a trad. of Mo'ádh, لَهُ مَا قَصَرَ فِى بَيْتِهِ To him belongeth what he hath held confined in, or kept within, his house or tent: (TA:) or what he hath held in possession &c. (Az, TA in art. خمر: see 10 in that art.) Yousay also قَصَرْتُ الدَّارَ, inf. n. as above, I [confined and so] defended the house by walls. (TA.) and قَصَرَ الجَارِيَةَ بِالْحِجَابِ He [confined and so] kept safe the girl by means of the veil, or covering, or the like: and in like manner you say of a horse. (TA.)

(TA.) and one says قَصَرْتُ نَفْسِى عَلَى الشَّىْءِ I confined, or restricted, myself to the thing, and obliged myself to do it. (TA.) [See also 8.] Hence what is said of Thumámeh, in a trad., فأَبَى أَنْ يُسْلِمَ قَصْرًا But he refused to become a Muslim by constraint and compulsion: or by force, as some say, from القَسُرُ; the س being changed into ص, as is done in many other cases.

[Hence,] قَصَرْتُ اللِّقْحَةَ عَلَى فَرَسِى I appropriated the milk of the milch-camel [restrictively] to my horse. (S, TA.) [And hence,] قَصَرْتُ عَلَى نَفْسِى نَاقَةً I retained for myself [restrictively] a she-camel, that I might drink her milk. (Msb.) Aboo-Du-ád says, describing a horse, فَقُصِرْنَ الشِّتَآءَ بَعْدُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ لِلذَّوْدِ أَنْ يُقَسَّمْنَ جَارٌ meaning, So they were restricted to him, that he might drink their milk, during the severity of the winter, afterwards; and he is a protector to the few she-camels from their being suddenly attacked and divided in shares; مِنْ being understood before أَنْ. (M.) A6: قَصَرَ الثَّوْبَ, (S, M, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S,) inf. n. قَصْرٌ (S, Mgh, Msb) and قِصَارَةٌ; (Sb, M, TA;) and ↓ قصّرهُ, (S, M,) inf. n. تَقْصِيرٌ; (S;) He beat, (S, TA,) washed, (Mgh,) and whitened, (M, Msb, TA,) the cloth, or garment. (S, M, &c.) 2 قَصَّرَ see 1, throughout.4 أَقْصَرَ see 1, throughout.

A2: أَقْصَرَتْ She brought forth short children: hence the saying, إِنَّ الطَّوِيلَةَ قَدْ تُقْصِرُ وَإِنَّ القَصِيرَةَ قَدْ تُطِيلُ [Verily the tall woman sometimes brings forth short children, and verily the short woman sometimes brings forth tall children]. (S, K. *) J is in error in saying that this is in a trad. (Sgh, K.) But IAth also asserts it to be a trad. (MF in art. طول.) 6 تقاصر He feigned, or pretended, (أَظْهَرَ,) shortness; (M, Sgh, K;) as also ↓ تَقَوْصَرَ: (Sgh, K:) or, accord. to some, these two verbs have different significations: see the latter below.

Q. 1 in art. فذ.)] b3: تقاصرت نَفْسُهُ (assumed tropical:) He (lit. his spirit, or soul,) became abject, mean, contemptible, or despicable; syn. تَضَآءَلَتْ.

(M, TA.) b5: See also 1, in two places.8 اقتصر عَلَى الأَمْرِ He confined, restricted, or limited, himself to the thing, or affair; did not exceed it. (M, K. *) b2: اقتصر عَلَى الشَّىْءِ, (S,) or على كَذَا, (Msb,) [and بِكَذَا,] He was satisfied, or content, (S, Msb,) with the thing, (S,) or with such a thing.

(S.) b2: He reckoned him, or held him, to fall short of doing what he ought to do: or to flagg, or be remiss: عَدَّهُ مُقَصِّرًا. (S.) Q. Q. 2 تَقَوْصَرَ, said of a man, (M,) He became contracted; lit., one part of him entered into another part; (M, K;) as though he became like a قَوْصَرَّة, from which word the verb is derived. (Z, TA.) b2: See also 6.

قَصْرٌ and ↓ قَصَرٌ and ↓ قُصْرَةٌ [like the inf. n. قُصُورٌ] The falling, or stopping, or coming, short of accomplishing an affair; or of doing what one ought, or is commanded, to do; or flagging, or remissness: you say to a man whom you have sent to accomplish some needful affair, and who has fallen short of doing what you commanded him to do, on account of heat or some other cause, مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَبْلُغَ المَكَانَ الَّذِى أَمَرْتُكَ بِهِ إِلَّا

أَنَّكَ أَحْبَبْتَ القَصْرَ, and القَصَرَ, and القُصْرَةَ, i. e. أَنْ تُقَصِّرَ [Nothing prevented thy reaching the place to which I commanded thee to go but thy loving to fall short &c.; or to flag, or be remiss]. (M, K *.) And ↓ قَصَرَةٌ, (K,) or ↓ قَصَرٌ, without ة, accord. to the Nawádir of IAar, as cited in the L, and so in the handwriting of Sgh, (TA,) and ↓ قَصَارٌ, (K,) signify Laziness; slothfulness. (IAar, Sgh, K.) An Arab of the desert is related to have said ↓ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ آتِيَكَ فَمَنَعَنِى القَصَارُ [I desired to come to thee, but laziness prevented me]. (TA.) A2: قَصْرُكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا and ↓ قَصَارُكَ, (S, M, K,) and ↓ قُصَارُكَ, (M, K,) and ↓ قُصَارَاكَ, (S, M, K,) and ↓ قُصَيْرَاكَ, (M, K,) Thine utmost, or the utmost of thy power or of thine ability or of thy deed, (جُهْدُكَ, M, K, [or app., جَهْدُكَ, (see art. جهد,)] and غَايَتُكَ, S, M, K,) and the end of thy case, and that to which thou hast confined or restricted or limited thyself, (S, TA,) [or that to which thou art confined or restricted or limited,] is, or will be, thy doing such a thing. (S, M, K.) It is from قَصْرٌ signifying the “ act of confining, restricting, limiting,” &c. (TA.) And ↓ قُصْرَى also signifies the end of an affair. (Sgh, TA.) A poet says إِنَّمَا أَنْفُسُنَا عَارِيَّةٌ وَالْعَوَارِىُّ قَصَارٌ أَنْ تُرَدْ [Our souls are only a loan: and the end of loans is their being given back; تُرَدْ being for تُرَدَّ]. (S, TA.) You also say, كُلِّ بَلَآءٍ وَشِدَّةٍ ↓ المَوْتُ قُصَارِى

[Death is the end of every trial and distress]. (TA, art. حمأ.) A3: قَصْرٌ (S, M) and ↓ مَقْصَرٌ (K) and ↓ مَقْصَرَةٌ and ↓ مَقْصِرٌ (M, K) The afternoon: or evening: syn. عَشِىٌّ: (S, M, K:) or the first signifies the last part of the day: (IKtt:) or the time before the sun becomes yellow: (JK:) or the first and second signify the time of the approach of the عَشِىّ, a little before the عَصْر: (A, TA:) and the first (S, K) and second (A'Obeyd, TA) and third, (A'Obeyd, S, TA,) [the time of] the mixing of the darkness: (A'Obeyd, S, K, TA:) pl. of the second (TA) and third (S, M) and fourth, (M,) مَقَاصِرُ (S, M) and مَقَاصِيرُ, which latter is extr.; (M;) in the first sense, as signifying عَشَايَا; (M;) or in the last sense; (S;) not signifying, as it is said to do in the K, العِشَآءُ الآخِرَةُ; for this is a great mistake, app. occasioned by F's seeing the passage [in the T] of Az, [or in the M, in which I find it,] وَالمَقَاصِرُ وَالمَقَاصِيرُ العَشَايَا الأَخِيرَةُ نَادِرَةٌ, and not properly considering it. (TA.) Sb says, that قَصْرٌ has no dim.; the Arabs being content to use in its stead the dim. of مَسَآءٌ. (M.) You say أَتَيْتُهُ قَصْرًا I came to him in the afternoon, or evening; syn. عَشِيًّا. (S.) And جِئْتُ قَصْرًا, and ↓ مَقْصَرًا, I came at the approach of the عَشِىّ, a little before the عَصْر. (A, TA.) And العِشَآءِ ↓ أَقْبَلَتْ مَقَاصِيرُ [The times of the mixing of the darkness of nightfall came, or advanced]. (A, TA.) A4: قَصْرٌ [A palace: a pavilion, or kind of building wholly or for the most part isolated, sometimes on the top of a larger building, i. e., a belvedere, and sometimes projecting from a larger building, and generally consisting of one room if forming a part of a larger building or connected with another building; the same as the Turkish كوشك: to such buildings we find the appellation to have been applied from very early times to the present day:] a well-known kind of edifice: (M:) a mansion, or house; syn. مَنْزِلٌ: (Lh, M, K:) or any house or chamber (بَيْت) of stone; (M, K;) of the dial. of Kureysh: (M:) so called because a man's wives and the like are confined in it: (M:) pl. قُصُورٌ. (S, M, Msb.) قَصْرُ الْمَلِكِ [The palace, or pavilion, of the king]. (Msb.) A5: Also قَصْرٌ Large and dry, or large and thick, or dry, fire-wood; حَطَبٌ جَزْلٌ. (M, K.) So in the Kur, lxxvii. 32, accord. to El-Hasan, as related by Lh. (M.) قَصَرٌ: see قَصْرٌ, in two places.

(TA.) هَرِيسٌ Grain, (Msb,) or wheat, (A,) bruised, brayed, or pounded, (A, Msb,) vehemently, or violently, (A,) with the مَهْرَاس, before it is cooked; for when it is cooked, it is termed هَرِيسَةٌ: (Msb:) [of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ:] from the verb above-mentioned. (K.) You say, عِنْدِى هَرِيسٌ لِلْهَرِيسَةِ I have wheat bruised, &c., for the هَرِيسَة. (A.) هَرِيسَةٌ Grain, (Msb,) or wheat, (TA,) bruised, brayed, or pounded, [vehemently, or violently, (see هَرِيسٌ,)] and then cooked: (Msb, TA:) [or a kind of thick pottage, prepared of cooked wheat and cooked flesh-meats much pounded together: (Golius; app. on the authority of Ibn-Maaroof:) but this is probably one of the kinds of هريسة peculiar to post-classical times; which kinds are many: see De Sacy's Relation de l'Égypte par Abd-Allatif, pp. 307 and 312:] of the measure فَعِيلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولَةٌ: (Msb:) from the verb above-mentioned: (S, K:) pl. هَرَائِسُ. (A.) هَرَّاسٌ A maker, or preparer, of هَرِيسَة: (Mgh, Msb, K:) and a seller thereof.

(TA.)

الا

أَلَا [in its primitive acceptation, being composed of the interrogative hemzeh and the negative لا,] denotes an interrogation respecting a negative, as in the saying [of the poet], أَلَا اصْطِبَارَ لِسَلْمَى أَمْ لَهَا جَلَدٌ
إِذَا أُلَاقِى الَّذِى لَاقَاهُ أَمْثَالِى

[Is there not any patience belonging to Selmà, or has she hardiness, when I experience what persons like me have experienced?]: (Mughnee, K:) and when used in this manner, it is put before a nominal proposition only, and governs like the negative لا [when used without the interrogative hemzeh]. (Mughnee.) b2: It also denotes a wish; as in the saying [of the poet], أَلَا عُمْرَ وَلَّى مُسْتَطَاعٌ رُجُوعُهُ
فَيَرْأَبَ مَا أَثْأَتْ يَدُ الغَفَلَاتِ [May there not be a life which has declined whereof the returning is possible, so that it may repair what the hand of negligences hath marred?]; for which reason يرأب is mansoob, because it is the complement of a wish, coupled with فَ: and used in this manner, also, it is put before a nominal proposition only, [ولّى in the verse above being a qualificative, like an epithet,] and it governs like the negative لا [without the interrogative hemzeh], and has no enunciative either expressed or understood. (Mughnee.) b3: It also denotes reproof, or reproach, (T, Mughnee, K,) and disapproval; as in the saying [of the poet], أَلَا ارْعِوَآءَ لِمَنْ وَلَتْ شَبِيْبَتُهُ
وَاذَنَتْ بِمَشِيبٍ بَعْدَهُ هَرَمُ [Is there no self-restraint to him whose youth hath declined, and announced hoariness, after which is to follow decrepitude?]: (Mughnee, K:) and used in this manner, also, it is put before a nominal proposition only, and governs as in the cases mentioned above, (Mughnee,) or before a verb [also], which is always marfooa; as in the phrase أَلَا تَنَدَّمَ عَلَى فِعَالِكَ [Dost not thou repent of thine actions?] and أَلَا تَسْتَحْيِى

مِنْ جِيرَانِكَ [Art not thou ashamed for thyself, or of thyself, with respect to thy neighbours?] and أَلَا تَخَافُ رَبَّكَ [Dost not thou fear thy Lord?]. (T.) b4: It also denotes عَرْضٌ, (T,) or العَرْضُ, and التَّحْضِيضُ, both of which signify the asking, or requiring, a thing; (Mughnee, K; *) but the former means the doing so with gentleness; (Mughnee, K;) and the latter, the doing so with urgency: (Mughnee:) and when used in this manner, [also,] it is said to be composed of لا with the interrogative hemzeh; (TA;) and is put before a verbal proposition only; (Mughnee;) as in the saying [in the Kur xxiv. 22], أَلَا تُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللّٰهُ لَكُمْ [Do not ye, or wherefore do not ye, (see أَمَا,) like that God should forgive you?] (Mughnee, K,) and [in the same, ix. 13,] أَلَاتُقَاتِلُونَ قًوْمًا نَكَثُوا أَيْمَانَهُمْ [Will not ye, or wherefore will not ye, fight a people who have broken their oaths?]; (Mughnee;) or before a mejzoom or marfooa aor. , both of these forms being mentioned on the authority of the Arabs, as in أَلَا تَنْزِلْ تَأْكُلْ and أَلَا تَنْزِلُ تَأْكُلُ [Wilt not thou, or wherefore wilt not thou, alight and eat?]. (Ks, T.) b5: It is also an inceptive particle, (S, Mughnee, K,) of which those who parse show the place but neglect the meaning, (Mughnee,) used to give notice of something about to be said, [like as Now, and why, (by the former of which I think it is generally best rendered when thus used,) are often employed in our language, and like as ἀλλὰ (which is remarkable for its near agreement with it in sound) is often used in Greek,] (S, Mughnee, K,) and importing averment, because it is composed of the interrogative hemzeh and the negative لا which, when thus composed, have this import, (Mughnee, K,) like أَلَمْ, and أَلَيْسَ, because the interrogative particle resembles the particle of negation, and the negation of a negation is an affirmation, (Ham p. 589,) and like أَمَا before an oath: (Z, Mughnee:) [it may therefore be further rendered by our word surely;; for this word (as Dr. Johnson says in his Dictionary) "is often used rather to intend and strengthen the meaning of the sentence, than with any distinct and explicable meaning:"] or it signifies حَقًّا [verily, or truly]: (M voce أَمَا:) it is put before both the [kinds of] propositions, [the nominal and the verbal;] (Mughnee;) as in the saying [in the Kur ii. 12], أَلَا إِنَّهُمْ هُمُ السُّفَهَآءُ [meaning Now surely it is they who are the lightwitted], (Mughnee, K,) and [in the same, xi. 11,] أَلَا يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمْ لَيْسَ مَصْرُوفًا عَنْهُمْ [meaning Now surely, on the day of its coming to them, it shall not be averted from them], (Mughnee,) in which يَوْمَ يَأْتِيهِمْ appears to be the object of government of مَصْرُوفًا, which is the enunciative of لَيْسَ whence it has been argued that, as the object of government of the enunciative of ليس precedes that verb, the enunciative itself may precede it: (I 'Ak pp. 74 and 75:) [J says,] you say, أَلَا إِنَّ زَيْدًا خَارِجٌ [Now surely Zeyd is going forth], like as you say, إِعْلَمْ أَنَّ زَيْدًا خَارِجٌ [Know thou that Zeyd is going forth]: (S:) Ks says, أَلَا is used to give notice of what is about to be said, and is followed by a command and a prohibition and an enunciation, as in أَلَا قُمْ [Now stand thou], and أَلَا لَا تَقُمْ [Now stand not thou], and أَلَا إِنَّ زَيْدًا قَدْ قَامَ [Now surely Zeyd has stood, or has just now stood]. (T.) When it is put before the particle [يَا] used to give notice of what is about to be said, it is merely an inceptive, as in the saying. [of the poet], أَلَا يَا اسْلَمِى يَا دَارَ مَىَّ عَلَى البِلَى

[Now be thou free from evil, O abode of Meiyà, during wear and tear]. (AAF, M.) b6: Lth says, sometimes أَلَا is immediately followed by another لا; and he cites the following ex.: فَقَامَ يَذُودُ النَّاسَ عَنَّا بِسَيْفِهِ
يَقُولُ أَلَا لَا مِنْ سَبِيلٍ إِلَى هِنْدِ [Then he began to drive away the people from us, saying, Now is there no way to Hind?]: and one says to a man, "Did such and such things happen?" and he answers, أَلَا لَا [Why no]: he holds الا to be used to give notice of what is about to be said, and لا to be a negative. (T.) أُلَا and الأُلَا, and أُلَآءِ &c.: see art. الى.

أَلَّا is a particle denoting تَحْضِيض; (Msb in art. حض, Mughnee, K;) i. e., when followed by a future, exciting to an action, and seeking or desiring or demanding the performance of it; and when followed by a preterite, reproof for not doing a thing; (Msb ubi suprà;) syn. with هَلَّا; (T, TA;) and peculiar to enunciative verbal propositions, (Mughnee, K,) like the other particles used for the same purpose. (Mughnee.) Yousay, [أَلَّا تَفْعَلُ كَذَا Wherefore wilt not thou do such a thing? and] أَلَّا . فَعَلْتَ كَذَا [Wherefore didst not thou such a thing?] (T, TA,) meaning, (TA,) or as though meaning, (T,) لِمَ لَمْ تَفْعَلْ كَذَا. (T, TA.) A2: It also means أَنْ لَا; the ن being incorporated into the ل, which is written with teshdeed: (T, TA:) in which case, it is not to be confounded with the foregoing particle. (Mughnee.) You say, أَمَرْتُهُ أَلَّا يَفْعَلَ ذَاكَ [I commanded him that he should not do that]; and you may say, أَمَرْتُهُ أَنْ لَا يَفْعَلَ ذَاكَ: it occurs in the old copies of the Kur written in the former manner in some places, and in the latter manner in other places. (T, TA.) In the saying in the Kur [xxvii. 31], أَلَّا تَعْلُوا عَلَىَّ, [which may mean That ye exalt not yourselves against me, or exalt ye not yourselves against me,] it may be a compound of أَنْ governing a mansoob aor. and the negative لَا, or of the explicative أَنْ and the prohibitive لا. (Mughnee.) [It often has لِ prefixed to it, forming the compound لِئَلَّا, which signifies That, or in order that,... not; and may frequently be rendered by lest; as in the Kur ii. 145, لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَيْكُمْ حُجَّةٌ That, or in order that, there may not be, or lest there should be, to men, against you, any allegation.]

إِلَّا, [regarded as a simple word,] not to be confounded with the compound of the conditional إِنْ and the negative لَا, (Mughnee at the end of the article on this word,) is used in four manners. (The same in the beginning of the art.) First, (Mughnee,) it is used (as a particle, S, Msb,) to denote exception; [meaning Except, save, or saving; and sometimes but; and sometimes but not; as will be seen below;] (T, S, Msb, Mughnee, K; [in which last it is mentioned in art. ال, and again, as in the S, in the last division of the work;]) and to denote exception, it is used in five manners; after an affirmation, and a negation, and a portion of a sentence devoid of the mention of that from which the exception is made, and when the thing excepted precedes that from which the exception is made, and when these two are disunited in kind, in which last case it has the meaning of لٰكِنَّ [but when the sentence is negative, and but not when the sentence is affirmative]. (S, TA.) You say, قَامَ القَوْمُ إِلَّا زَيْدًا [The people, or company of men, stood, except Zeyd]; i. e., Zeyd was not included in the predicament of the people, or company of men: (Msb:) and it is said in the Kur [ii. 250], (T,) فَشَرِبُوا مِنْهُ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا مِنْهُمْ [And they drank of it, except a few of them]: (T, Mughnee, K:) here قليلا is governed in the accus. case by الّا, (Mughnee, K,) accord. to the most correct opinion: (Mughnee:) accord. to Th, it is so because there is no negation in the beginning of the sentence. (T.) And it is also said in the Kur [iv. 69], (T,) مَا فَعَلُوهُ إِلَّا قَلِيلٌ مِنْهُمْ [They had not done it, or they would not do it, except a few of them]: (T, Mughnee, K:) here قليل is in the nom. case as being a partial substitute, (Mughnee, K,) accord. to the Basrees, (Mughnee,) i. e., as being a [partial] substitute for the [pronoun] و [in فعلوه], for it may here be so without perversion of the meaning, whereas it cannot be so without such perversion when the sentence is affirmative: (TA:) accord. to the Koofees, الّا is a conjunction, like the conjunctive لَا: (Mughnee:) accord. to Th, قليل is here in the nom. case because the sentence commences with a negative: (T:) or in a sentence [like this,] which is not affirmative, in which the thing excepted is united in kind to that from which the exception is made, accord. to the opinion which is generally preferred and which commonly obtains, the noun signifying the thing excepted is a substitute for the noun signifying that from which the exception is made; but it is allowable to put it in the accus. case according to the general rule respecting exception; so that one says, مَا قَامَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا زَيْدٌ and إِلَّا زَيْدًا [There stood not any one, except Zeyd]: and the same is the case in a prohibitive sentence; as in لَا يَقُمْ أَحَدٌ

إِلَّا زَيْدٌ and إِلَّا زَيْدًا [Let not any one stand, except Zeyd]; and in an interrogative sentence; as in هَلْ قَامَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا زَيْدٌ and إِلَّا زَيْدًا [Did any one stand, except Zeyd?]; when, in such sentences, the thing excepted is united in kind to that from which the exception is made. (I 'Ak p. 162.) You say also, مَا جَآءَنِى إِلَّا زَيْدٌ [There came not to me any, save Zeyd], without mentioning that from which the exception is made; (TA;) and مَا ضَرَبْتُ إِلَّا زَيْدًا [I beat not any, save Zeyd]; and مَا مَرَرْتُ إِلَّا بِزَيْدٍ

[I passed not by any, save by Zeyd]; (I' Ak p. 164;) the case of the noun signifying the thing excepted being the same as if الّا were not mentioned: (I' Ak ubi suprà, and TA:*) but you may not say, affirmatively, ضَرَبْتُ إِلَّا زَيْدًا, or the like. (I 'Ak ubi suprà.) When the thing excepted precedes that from which the exception is made, if the sentence is affirmative, the noun signifying the former must be in the accus. case; as in قَامَ إِلَّا زَيْدًا القَوْمُ [Except Zeyd, the people, or company of men, stood]: and so, accord. to the usage generally preferred, when the sentence is not affirmative; as in مَاقَامَ إِلَّا زَيْدًا القَوْمُ [Except Zeyd, the people, or company of men, stood not]; but recorded instances allow one's saying also, مَا قَامَ إِلَّا زَيْدٌ القَوْمُ. (I 'Ak p. 163.) When the thing excepted is disunited in kind from that from which the exception is made, if the sentence is affirmative, the noun signifying the former must likewise be in the accus. case; as in قَامَ القَوْمُ إِلَّا حِمَارًا [The people, or company of men, stood, but not an ass], and ضَرَبْتُ القَوْمَ إِلَّا حِمَارًا [I beat the people, but not an ass], &c.: (I' Ak p. 162:) and so, accord. to the generality of the Arabs, when the sentence is negative; as in مَا قَامَ القَوْمُ إِلَّا حِمَارًا [The people stood not, but an ass]; (I' Ak p. 163;) and مَا رَأَيْتُ القَوْمَ إِلَّا حِمَارًا [I saw not the people, but an ass]; الّا being here syn. with لٰكِنَّ; as also in the Kur [xlii. 22], where it is said, لَا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِلَّا الْمَوَدَةَ فِى القُرْبَى [I ask not of you a recompense for it, but affection in respect of relationship]; (Msb;) and in the same xx. 1 and 2, مَا أَنْزَلْنَا عَلَيْكَ القُرْآنَ لِتَشْقَى إِلَّا تَذْكِرَةً

[We have not sent down unto thee the Kur-án that thou shouldest suffer fatigue, but as an admonition]; (Bd, Jel;) or it is here syn. with بَلْ [which in this case means the same as لكنّ]: (S:) so, too, when the sentence resembles a negative, being prohibitive or interrogative; (I' Ak p. 163, explained in p. 162;) [thus, لَا تَضْرِبِ القَوْمَ

إِلَّا حِمَارًا means Beat not thou the people, but an ass; and] فَلَولَا كَانَتْ قَرْيَةٌ آمَنَتْ فَنَفَعَهَا إِيمَانُهَا إِلَّا قَوْمَ يُونُسَ [in the Kur x. 98] means And wherefore did not any inhabitants of a town believe, before the punishment befell them, and their belief profit them, but the people of Jonas? for these were different from the former. (T.) When إِلَّا is repeated for the purpose of corroboration, it has no effect upon what follows it, except that of corroborating the first exception; as in مَا مَرَرْتُ بِأَحَدٍ إَلَّا زَيْدٍ إِلَّا أَخِيكَ [I passed not by any one, except Zeyd, except thy brother], in which اخيك is a substitute for زيد, for it is as though you said, مَا مَرَرْتُ بِأَحَدٍ إِلَّا زَيْدٍ أَخِيكَ; and as in قَامَ القَوْمُ

إِلَّا زَيْدًا وَ إِلَّا عَمْرًا [The people stood, except Zeyd, and except' Amr], originally إِلَّا زَيْدًا وَ عَمْرًا. When the repetition is not for that purpose, if the sentence is devoid of the mention of that from which the exception is made, you make the governing word [which is the verb] to affect one, whichever you please, of the nouns signifying the things excepted, and put the others in the accus. case, so that you say, مَا قَامَ إِلَّا زَيْدٌ إِلَّا عَمْرًا إِلَّا بَكْرًا [There stood not any, save Zeyd, save' Amr, save Bekr]; but if the sentence is not devoid of the mention of that from which the exception is made, different rules are observed accord. as the things excepted are mentioned before that from which the exception is made or after it: in the former case, all must be put in the accus., whether the sentence be affirmative or not affirmative; as in قَامَ إِلَّا زَيْدًا إِلَّا عَمْرًا إِلَّا بَكْرًا القَوْمُ [Except Zeyd, except' Amr, except Bekr, the people stood], and مَاقَامَ إِلَّا زَيْدًا إِلَّا عَمْرًا إِلَّا بَكْرًا القَوْمُ [Except Zeyd, except' Amr, except Bekr, the people stood not]: in the latter case, when the sentence is affirmative, all must likewise be put in the accus., so that you say, قَامَ القَوْمُ إِلَّا زَيْدًا إِلَّا عَمْرًا إِلَّا بَكْرًا [The people stood, except Zeyd, except' Amr, except Bekr]; but when the sentence is not affirmative, the same rule is observed with respect to one of them as when the exception is not repeated, accord. to the usage generally preferred, or it may be put in the accus., which is rarely done, and the rest must be put in the accus., so that you say, مَا قَامَ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا زَيْدٌ إِلَّا عَمْرًا إِلَّا بَكْرًا [There stood not any one, except Zeyd, except' Amr, except Bekr, accord. to the more approved usage], زيد being a substitute for احد, or you may make the other nouns which remain to be substitutes. (I' Ak pp. 164 — 166.) b2: Secondly, (Mughnee,) it is used as a qualificative, (S, Msb, Mughnee, K,) in the manner of غَيْرُ, (Mughnee, K,) [i. e.] in the place of غَيْرُ, (S,) [i. e.] as syn. with غَيْرُ, (T, Msb,) and سِوَى; (T;) [both meaning the same, i. e. Other than; or not, as used before a subst. or an adjective;] but its primary application is to denote exception, and its use as a qualificative is adventitious; whereas the primary application of غَيْرُ is as a qualificative, and its use to denote exception is adventitious. (S.) It [generally] follows an indeterminate, unrestricted pl.; (Msb;) or an indeterminate pl., or the like thereof, is qualified by it and by that which follows it; (Mughnee, K;) the noun which follows it being put in the same case as that which precedes it. (S.) The following is an ex. of the indeterminate pl.: (Mughnee, K:) لَوْ كَانَ فِيهِمَا آلِهَةٌ إِلَّا اللّٰهُ لَفَسَدَتَا [If there had been in them (namely the heavens and the earth) deities other than God, or not God, assuredly they would have become in a state of disorder, or ruin; occurring in the Kur xxi. 22]; (Fr, T, S, Msb, Mughnee, K;) الّا here meaning سَوِى, (Fr, T,) or غَيْرُ, (Msb, TA,) and الّا اللّه being a qualificative of آلهة. (TA.) and the following is an ex. of the like of an indeterminate pl.: أُنِيخَتْ فَأَلْقَتْ بَلْدَةً فَوْقِ بَلْدَةٍ
قَلِيلٍ بِهَا الأَصْوَاتُ إِلَّا بُغَامُهَا [She (the camel) was made to lie down, and threw her breast upon a tract of ground in which were few sounds other than her broken yearning cry for her young one]; for the determination of الاصوات [by the article ال] is generical: (Mughnee, K:) this verse is by Dhu-r-Rummeh. (S in art. بلد.) The following is an ex. of the like of a pl..: (Mughnee:) it is by Lebeed: (T:) لَوْ كَانَ غَيْرِى سُلَيْمَى اليَوْمَ غَيَّرَهُ
وَقْعُ الحَوَادِثِ إِلَّا الصَّارِمُ الذَّكَرُ [If it had been other than I, (O) Suleymà, today, the befalling of misfortunes would have altered him; other than the sharp sword diversified with wavy marks or streaks or grain, or of which the edge is of steel and the middle of the broad side of soft iron]. (T, Mughnee. [But in the latter, in the place of اليَوْمَ, I find الدَّهْرَ, i. e. ever.]) What Sb says necessarily implies its not being a condition that the word qualified must be a pl. or the like thereof; for he gives as an ex., لَوْ كَانَ مَعَنَا رَجُلٌ إِلَّ [If there had been with us a man other than Zeyd, we should have been overcome]. (Mughnee.) Another ex. of the same usage of إِلَّا is the following: جَآءَنِى القَوْمُ إِلَّا زَيْدٌ [The people came to me, others than Zeyd, or not Zeyd]. (S.) [And مَ أَنْتُمْ إِلَّا بَشَرٌ مِثْلُنَا Ye are no other than human beings like us. (Kur xxxvi. 14.)] And the saying [in the Kur xliv. 56], لَا يَذُقُونَ فِيهَا الْمَوْتَ إِلَّا المَوْتَةَ الْأُولَى [They shall not taste therein death, other than the first death]; الّا here meaning سِوَى: (T:) or, accord. to some, it here means بَعْدَ [after]. (Jel.) And the saying of 'Amr Ibn-Maadee-kerib, وَ كُلُّ أَخٍ مُفَارِقُهُ أَخُوهُ
لَعَمْرُ أَبِيكَ إِلَا الفَرْقَدَانِ [And every brother, his brother forsakes him, or separates himself from him, by the life of thy father, other than the Farhadán; which is the name of the two stars b and r of Ursa Minor]; as though he said غَيْرُ الفَرْقَدَيْنِ: (S:) but Ibn-El-Hájib regards this instance as a deviation from a general rule; for he makes it a condition of the use of الّا as a qualificative that it must be impossible to use it for the purpose of denoting exception: (Mughnee:) Fr says that this verse has the meaning of a negation, and therefore الّا here governs the nom. case; as though the poet said, There is not any one but his brother forsakes him, except the Farkadán. (T.) When it is used as a qualificative, it differs from غَيْرُ inasmuch as that the noun qualified by it may not be suppressed; so that one may not say, جَآءَنِى إِلَّا زَيْدٌ [meaning There came to me not Zeyd]; whereas one says, جَآئَنِى غَيْرُ زَيْدٍ: and, accord. to some, in this also; that it may not be used as such unless it may be used to denote exception; so that one may say, عِنْدِى

دِرْهَمٌ إِلَّا دَانِقٌ [I have a dirhem, not a dánik], because one may say إِلَّا دَانِقًا [except a dánik]; but not إِلَّا جَيِّدٌ [not a good one], because one may not say إِلَّا جَيِّدًا [except a good one]; but it may be said that this is at variance with what they assert respecting the phrase لَوْ كَانَ فِيهِمَا آلِهَةٌ, and with the ex. given by Sb, and with the saying of Ibn-El-Hájib mentioned above. (Mughnee.) b3: Thirdly, (Mughnee,) sometimes, (S, Msb,) it is used as a conjunction, (Mughnee, K,) in the manner of وَ (S, Mughnee, K,) consociating both literally and as to the meaning, as mentioned by Akh and Fr and AO, (Mughnee,) [i. e.] as syn. with وَ [And]. (Msb.) Thus in the saying, لِئَلاَّ يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَيْكُمْ حُجَةٌ إِلَّا الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا [That there may not be to men, against you, any allegation, and (meaning nor) to those who have acted wrongfully]; (Msb, Mughnee, K;) occurring in the Kur [ii. 145]; (Msb;) so accord. to Akh and Fr and AO; (Mughnee;) i. e., and those who have acted wrongfully also, to them there shall not be, against you, any allegation: (Msb:) Fr explains it as meaning that the wrongdoer has no allegation of which account should be taken; and this is correct, and is the opinion held by Zj. (T.) Thus, too, in the saying [in the Kur xxvii.10 and 11], لَا يَخَافُ لَدَىَّ الْمُرْسَلُونَ إِلَّا مَنْ ظَلَمَ ثُمَّ بَدَلَ حُسْنًا بَعْدَ سُوءٍ [The apostles shall not fear in my presence, and neither shall he who hath acted wrongfully, then hath done good instead, after evil; as some explain it; but others say that وَلَا مَنْ ظَلَمَ here denotes exception]. (Mughnee, in which it is explained as meaning ; and K.) And thus in the saying of the poet, [namely, El-Mukhabbal Es-Saadee, (S in art. خلد,)]

وَأَرَى لَهَا دَارًا بِأَغْدِرَة السْ??
سِيدَانِ لَمْ يَدْرُسْ لَهَا رَسْمُ
إِلَّا رَمَادًا هَامِدًا دَفَعَتْ
عَنْهُ الرِّيَاحَ خَوَالِدٌ سُحْمٌ [And I see a dwelling formerly belonging to her, at the pools of Es-Seedán, (a hill so called,) the remains of which have not become effaced, and ashes wasted and compacted together, from which three black pieces of stone whereon the cooking-pot was wont to be placed turned back the winds]: he means, أَرَى لَهَا دَارًا وَ رَمَادًا. (S.) b4: Fourthly, (Mughnee,) it is redundant, as in the following verse, (S in art. فك, Mughnee, K,) of Dhu-rRummeh, (S ubi suprà, Mughnee,) accord. to As and IJ: (Mughnee:) حَرَاجِيجُ مَا تَنْفَكُّ إِلَّا مُنَاخَةٌ
عَلَى الخَسْفِ أَوْ نَــرْمِى بِهَا بَلَدًا قَفْرَا [She-camels long-bodied, or lean, (but other meanings are assigned to the word which I thus render,) that cease not to be made to lie down in a state of hunger, or with which we direct our course to a desert region]; (S ubi suprà, Mughnee; [but in one copy of the former, in the place of نَــرْمِى, I find يَــرْمِى; and in my copy of the latter, تَــرْمِى;]) meaning, ما تنفكّ مناخةً: (S ubi suprà:) but it is said that this is a mistake of the poet: (Mughnee:) so says Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà; for, he says, الّا is not to be introduced after تَنْفَكُّ and تَزَالُ: (TA:) and some say that the right reading is إِلًّا, with tenween, [perhaps a mistranscription, for آلًا,] meaning شَخْصًا [in a pl. sense]: and some, that تنفكّ is a complete [or an attributive] verb, and مناخة is a denotative of state; [consequently, that إِلَّا is a compound of إِنْ and لَا, as in some other instances hereafter to be mentioned;] the meaning being, that are not disengaged, or not free, from fatigue [unless when made to lie down]. (Mughnee.) The following is also given as an ex. of the same kind: أَرَى الدَّهْرَ إِلَّا مَنْجَنُونًا بِأَهْلِهِ [I see fortune, or time, to be like a water-wheel, with its people]: but the reading which is remembered to have been heard is وَمَا الدَّهْرُ: and if the former be correct, it may be explained on the supposition that ارى is the complement of an oath meant to be understood, and that لا is suppressed, as in [the saying in the Kur xii. 85,] تَاللّٰهِ تَفْتَأُ تَذْكُرُ يُوسُفَ; [so that the meaning is, I see not fortune, or time, to be aught save a water-wheel, with its people;] the form of the exceptive sentence which is devoid of the mention of that from which the exception is made indicating such an explanation. (Mughnee.) b5: [Fifthly,] it occurs as syn. with لضَا [as a particle denoting exception, equivalent to our But; meaning both except and (after an oath or the like) only, or nothing more than]; as in the saying in the Kur [xxxviii. 13], إِنْ كُلٌّ إِلَّا كَذَّبَ الرُّسُلَ [There was not any one but such as accused the apostles of lying], in which 'Abd-Allah reads, in its place, لَمَّا; and for كُلٌّ he reads كُلُّهُمْ; and as in the saying, أَسْأَلُكَ بِاللّٰهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَيْتَنِى [I ask, or beg, or beseech, thee by God but that thou give me; i. e., I do not ask of thee anything save thy giving me; the preterite here, as in many instances in which it is preceded by لَمَّا (q. v.), not being a preterite in meaning]; for which one says also لَمَّا اعطيتنى. (T.) A2: It is also a particle [or rather a compound of two words] denoting the complement of a condition; originally إِنْ لَا, which form a compound that does not admit of [the pronunciation termed] imáleh, because إِنْ and لَا are particles. (T.) [It signifies, lit., If not.] It is followed by a fut., which it renders mejzoom; [and in this case it may be rendered as above, or by unless;] as in the saying in the Kur [viii. 74], إِلَا تَفْعَلُوهُ تَكُنْ فِتْنَةٌ فِى الأَرْضِ [If ye do it not, or unless ye do it, there will be a weakness of faith and an appearing of unbelief in the earth]. (T.) [In like manner,] in a saying such as the following, [in the Kur ix. 40,] إِلَّا تَنْصُرُوهُ فَقَدْ نَصَرَهُ اللّٰهُ [If ye do not, or will not, aid him, certainly God aided him], it is only a compound of two words, the conditional إِنْ and the negative لَا, and is distinct from إِلَّا of which the usages have been mentioned before, though Ibn-Málik has included it therewith. (Mughnee.) [Often in post-classical works, and perhaps in classical also, but seldom except when it is preceded by a condition with its complement, the verb or verbal proposition which should immediately follow it is suppressed; as in the like of the saying, إِنْ فَعَلْتَ كَذَا عَفَوْتُ عَنْكَ وَ إِلَّا قَتَلْتُكَ If thou do such a thing, I forgive thee, or cancel thine offence; but if thou wilt not do it (i. e., إِلَّا تَفْعَلْهُ,) I kill thee: sometimes also it ends a sentence, by an aposiopesis; the whole of what should follow it being suppressed: and sometimes the complement of the condition which precedes, as well as the verb or verbal proposition which should immediately follow it, is suppressed; so that you say, إِنْ فَعَلْتُ كَذَا وَ إِلَّا قَتَلْتُكَ If thou do such a thing, excellent will it be, or the like, فَنِعِمَّا هُوَ, or the like, being understood,) but if not, I kill thee. Hence,] it sometimes has the meaning of إِمَّا, [signifying Or, denoting an alternative, corresponding to a preceding إِمَّا, which signifies “either,”] as in the saying, إِمَّا أَنْ تُكَلِّمَنِى وَ إِلَّا فَاسْكُتْ [Either do thou speak to me or else (meaning وَ إِلَّا تُكَلِّمَنِى or if thou wilt not speak to me) be silent], i. e., وَ إِمَّا أَنْ تَسْكُتَ. (S.) [It is also followed by أَنْ, as in إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَآءَ اللّٰهُ Unless God should please; in the Kur vi. 111, &c. And by و as a denotative of state, as in لَا تَمُوتُنَّ

إِلَّا وَ أَنْتُمْ مُسْلِمُونَ Do not ye die unless ye be Muslims; in the Kur ii. 126 and iii. 97. and sometimes it is preceded by اَللّهُمَّ; for the effect of which, in this case, see art. اله.]

عم

ى1 عَمِىَ, [aor. ـْ inf. n. عَمًى, He was, or became, blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes; (Msb, K, * TA;) as also ↓ اِعْمَاىَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعْمِيَآءٌ; (K;) [said by SM to be like اِرْعَوَى, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِرْعِوَآءٌ; as though اِعْمَاىَ were originally اِعْمَىَّ, like as اِرْعَوَى is originally اِرْعَوَّ, both being of the measure اِفْعلَّ; but he adds, correctly, that,] accord. to Sgh, اِعْمَاىَ is originally like اِدْهَامَمَ, which becomes اِدْهَامَّ, [i. e. it is originally اِعْمَايَىَ,] but the latter ى is changed into ا because of the fet-hah of the former, so that it becomes اِعْمَايَا, and the two, thus differing, do not easily admit of idghám (TA;) and sometimes the ى of اِعْمَاىَ is musheddedeh, (Sgh, K, TA,) so that it becomes [↓ اِعْمَاىَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعمِيَّآءٌ,] like اِدْهَامَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِدْهِيمَامٌ; but this is by a straining of a point, and not in use: (Sgh, TA:) and ↓ تعمّى, likewise, signifies the same, (K, TA,) i. e., the same as عَمِىَ. (TA.) And you say also, عَمِيَتْ عَيْنَاهُ His two eyes were, or became, blind. (TA.) b2: Hence عَمًى is metaphorically used in relation to the mind, as meaning (tropical:) An erring; the connection between the two meanings being the not finding, or not taking, the right way: (Msb:) or the being blind in respect of the mind: and in this sense, the verb is as above, with the exception of the measure اِفعَالَّ [and the abbreviated form of this]. (K, * TA. [اَفْعَالٍ in the CK in this passage is a mistranscription, for افْعَالَّ.]) You say, عَمِىَ عَنْ رُشْدِهِ, and حُجَّتِهِ, meaning لَمْ يَهْتَدِ (assumed tropical:) [He did not, or could not, become guided to his right course, and his plea or the like; i. e. he was, or became, blind thereto]. (TA.) And عَمِىَ عَنْ حَقِّهِ (assumed tropical:) [He was, or became, blind to his right, or due], like عَشِىَ عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) b3: One says also عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرُ (tropical:) The information was, or became, unapparent, obscure, or covert, to him. (Mgh, Msb. *) And عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ طَرِيقُهُ, (TA,) and الأَمْرُ, (S, TA,) and الشِّعْرُ, and الكَلَامُ, (Har p. 190,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His way, or road, and the affair, and the poetry, or verse, and the speech, or saying,] was, or became, obscure, or dubious, to him; (S, TA, and Har ubi suprá) and so ↓ عُمِّىَ; (TA;) and ↓ تعمّى. (Har ubi suprá.) Hence, accord. to different readings, in the Kur [xxviii. 66], فَعَمِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَنْبَآءُ and ↓ فَعُمِّيَتْ (assumed tropical:) [And the pleas shall be obscure, or dubious, to them]. (S, TA.) b4: and عَمِيتُ إِلَى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I betook myself to such a thing, not desiring any other; as also عَطِشْتُ. (TA. [Accord. to the TA, the inf. ns. of these two verbs, thus used, are عميان and عطشان: but they are correctly عَمًى and عَطَشٌ.]) A2: عَمَى

المَوْجُ, aor. ـْ (S, K,) inf. n. عَمْىٌ, (S,) The waves cast the particles of rubbish, or the like, (S, K, TA,) driving them to their upper, or uppermost, parts, (TA,) and the foam.

Hence the saying of Sá'ideh Ibn-Jueiyeh, وَعَمَّى عَلَيْهِ المَوْتُ بَابَىْ طَرِيقِهِ [And death rendered blind, to him, the two doors of his way]; بابى طريقه meaning his two eyes. (TA.) b2: And [hence] عَمَّيْتُ الخَبَرَ (assumed tropical:) I made the information unapparent, obscure, or covert. (Msb.)

(K, TA.) b3: مَا أَعْمَاهُ meansonly مَا أَعْمَى قَلْبَهُ (assumed tropical:) [How blind is his mind!]: (S, K:) for the verb of wonder is not formed from that which is not significant of increase.

عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) 8 اِعْتَمَاهُ He chose it, selected it, or preferred it; syn. اِخْتَارَهُ; (S, K, TA;) i. e., a thing; (S;) formed by transposition from اِعْتَامَهُ [mentioned in art. عيم].

Hence also one says, رَكِبَ أَمْرًا عَلَى العَمَى, meaning He ventured upon, or embarked in, an affair blindly; like عَلَى

غَيْرِ بَصِيرَةِ.]

A2: See also أَعْمَآءٌ.

(TA.) عَمٍ, originally عَمِىٌ: see أَعْمَى, in four places.

عَمْيَةٌ, a contraction of عَمِيَةٌ fem. of عَمٍ: see أَعْمَى.

عِمْيَةٌ [in the CK erroneously عَمْيَة] a subst. from اِعْتَمَاهُ in the sense of اِخْتَارَهُ [signifying A thing chosen, selected, or preferred; like خِيرَةٌ, a subst. from اِخْتَارَهُ]. (K, TA.) عَمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed عَمٍ

[q. v. voce أَعْمَى]. (S, TA.) عَمَآءٌ, (S, K, TA,) in some of the copies of the K ↓ عَمًى, and by some thus related in a trad. mentioned in what follows, (TA,) Clouds: or, accord. to Az, [clouds] resembling smoke, surmounting the heads of mountains: (S, Msb:) or lofty clouds: or [in the CK “ and ”] dense: (K, TA:) or dense [clouds such as are termed] غَيْم: (TA:) or raining clouds: or thin clouds: or black: or white: or such as have poured forth their water; (K, TA;) but have not become dissundered like mountains: and ↓ عَمَآءَةٌ [is the n. un., and] signifies a dense, covering, cloud; as also ↓ عَمَايَةٌ: or a dense portion of cloud: but some disallow this, and make عَمَآءٌ to be [only] a coll. n.

أَتَيْتُهُ صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ, (S,) or لَقِيتهُ صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ, and ↓ عُمْىٍ, which occurs in poetry, (K, TA,) in a case in which the metre requires it, a verse of Ru-beh, who uses it for عَمَىٍّ, (TA, [which shows, by citing that verse, that عَمًى, the reading in the CK, is wrong,]) and ↓ أَعْمَى, (K,) i. e. [I came to him, or I met him,] in the time of midday when the heat was vehement, (S,) or in the most vehement heat of midday in summer (K, and Lh and O and TA in art. صك) when the heat almost blinded by its vehemence; (Lh and O and TA in that art.;) a time in which the divinelyappointed prayer [of midday] is forbidden: it is said only in the hot season; because when a man goes forth at that time, he cannot fill his eyes with the light of the sun; or, as ISd says, because the gazelle seeks the covert when the heat is vehement, and his eye becomes weak by reason of the whiteness of the sun, and the bright shining thereof, and he is dazzled, so that he knocks against his covert, not seeing it: (TA:) عُمَىّ being an abbreviated dim. of أَعْمَى: (S:) or it is a name for the heat, (K, TA,) itself: (TA:) or the name of a certain man, (K, TA,) of [the tribe of] 'Adwán, who used to press forward with the pilgrims when the heat was vehement, as is related in the Nh, or (TA) who used to decide cases judicially in, or concerning, the pilgrimage, and he came among a company journeying upon their camels, (K, TA,) performing the religious visit called عُمْرَة, (TA,) and they alighted at a station in a hot day, whereupon he said, “Upon whomsoever shall come this hour, or time, of tomorrow while he is حَرَام [i. e. in the condition of one performing the acts of the حَجّ or of the عُمْرَة], (K, TA,) not having accomplished his عُمْرَة, (TA,) he shall remain حَرَام until [this time] next year: ” and they immediately sprang up, (K, TA,) hastening, (TA,) so that they arrived at the House [of God, at Mekkeh, in the time required,] from a distance of a journey of two nights, using exertion; (K, TA;) and this saying became a prov., as is related in the M: (TA:) or it was the name of a certain man, (S, K, TA,) of the Amalekites, (S, TA,) who made a sudden attack upon a people, and exterminated them; (S, K, TA;) and the time became called in relation to him. (S, TA.) [See also art. صك.]

عَمَّا is a compound of عَنْ and مَا.

تَرَكْنَاهُمْ عُمَّى, (S, K,) or تركناهم فى عُمَّى, (so in some copies of the S, [thus in one of my copies,]) (assumed tropical:) We left them at the point of death. (S, K.) b2: See also أَعْمَآءُ.

عِمِّيَّا, of the measure فِعِّيلَى, i. q. فِتْنَةٌ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) Trial, or probation; punishment; slaughter; civil war; conflict and faction, or sedition; &c.]. (Mz, 40th نوع.) [See also the next paragraph.]

b2: [In the TA, عمياء, evidently a mistranscription for عِمِّيَّا, is expl. as having the second of the meanings assigned above to عَمَآءَةٌ &c., i. e. (assumed tropical:) Persistence; or contention, &c.] b3: قَتِيلُ عِمِّيَّا, (Mz ubi suprà, and K,) [in the CK, erroneously, عَمِيَّا, and in the TA قُتِلَ عِمِّيَّا,] the latter word of the measure فِعِّيلَى, (Mz, TA,) like رِمِّيَّا, (K, TA, [in the CK like رَمِيَّا,]) and خِصِّيصَى, (TA,) means (assumed tropical:) A slain person whose slayer is not known. (Mz, K, TA.) The predicament of him who has been so slain is like that of the slain unintentionally; the bloodwit being obligatory in his case [on his عَاقِلَة, q. v. voce عَاقِلٌ]. (TA.) عِمِّيَّةٌ and عُمِّيَّةٌ, (K, TA,) of the measure فُعِّيلَةٌ from العَمَى, (TA,) Pride; or self-magnification: or error; or deviation from that which is right. (K, TA.

(TA.) عَامٍ One who does not see his road, or way. (TA.) b2: عَامِيَةٌ, applied to a land (أَرْضٌ): see أَعْمَى. b3: Also, [thus applied,] Of which the traces are becoming [or become] effaced, or obliterated. (TA.) b4: See also أَعْمَآءٌ, in three places. b5: Applied to a woman, (TA,) عَامِيَةٌ signifies بَكَّآءَةٌ, (K, TA,) [a strange epithet,] meaning (assumed tropical:) Having very little milk. (TK.) A2: Applied to a man, عَامٍ signifies also رَامٍ [i. e. Casting, &c.]. (TA.) أَعْمَى (S, Msb, K) and ↓ عَمٍ (K [but see what follows]) Blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes: (Msb, K, * TA:) fem. of the former عَمْيَآءُ: (Msb, K, TA:) and pl. [masc.] عُمْىٌ (S, Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمْيَانٌ (Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمَاةٌ, as though this last were pl. of عَامٍ; (K, TA, but not in the CK;) and the dual of its fem. is عَمْيَاوَانِ; and its pl. is عَمْيَاوَاتٌ: (TA:) the fem. of ↓ عَمٍ is عَمِيَةٌ, (S, K, TA, [in the CK عَمِيَّةٌ, which is a mistranscription, for it is]) of the measure فَعِلَةٌ, (S,) like فَرِحَةٌ, (TA,) and ↓ عَمْيَةٌ, (K, TA, but not in the CK,) which is [a contraction] like فَخْذٌ for فَخِذٌ: (TA:) and the pl. masc. is عَمُونَ. (S, TA.) b2: And [hence,] (assumed tropical:) Blind in respect of the mind: (K, TA:) [but more commonly] one says, ↓ هُوَ عَمٍ as meaning (tropical:) He is erring, or one who errs; and أَعْمَى القَلْبِ [meaning the same, or blind in respect of the mind]: (Msb:) or القَلْبِ ↓ رَجُلٌ عَمِى i. e. (assumed tropical:) An ignorant man [or a man blind in respect of the mind]; and اِمْرَأَةٌ عَمِيَةٌ عَنِ الصَّوَابِ [a woman ignorant of, or blind to, that which is right], and عَمِيَةُ القَلْبِ [like عَمِى القَلْبِ as applied to a man]. (S.) In the saying in the Kur [xvii. 74], وَمَنْ كَانَ فِى هٰذِهِ فَهُوَ فِى الْآخِرَةِ أَعْمَى, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former [اعمى] is a part. n. and the second is like it; (TA;) and the meaning is, And whoso is in this state of existence blind in respect of the mind, not seeing his right course, he will be in the other blind with respect to the way of safety: (Bd:) or, as some say, the second is what is termed أَفْعَلُ تَفْضِيلٍ, the complement of which is expressed by means of مِنْ, [meaning more blind &c.,] and therefore AA and Yaakoob did not pronounce it with الإِمَالَة, as not being like the first, (Bd, TA, *) which is subject to الامالة because its ا [written ى] becomes [really]

ى in the dual: but Hamzeh and Ks and Aboo-Bekr pronounced both with الامالة. (Bd.) b3: الأَعْمَيَانِ means (assumed tropical:) The torrent and the fire of a burning house or the like; (K, TA;) because of the perplexity that befalls him whom they befall; or because, when they occur, they spare not a place, nor avoid anything; like the أَعْمَى [or blind], who knows not where he is travelling, so that he goes whither his leg conveys him: (TA:) or the torrent and the night: (K:) or the torrent, (S, K) or the tumultuous torrent, (TA,) and the camel excited by lust. (S, K, TA.) b4: And الأَمْرُ الأَعْمَى (assumed tropical:) The case [such as that] of partisanship (العَصَبِيَّة) whereof the manner of proceeding is not distinguishable. (TA.) b5: And أَرْضٌ عَمْيَآءُ and ↓ عَامِيَةٌ, and مَكَانٌ أَعْمَى, (assumed tropical:) A land, and a place, in which one will not, or cannot, be directed to his right course. (TA.) b6: See also صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ: b7: and see عَمِيَّةٌ.

أَعْمَآءٌ Tracts of land in which is no sign of the way, (S, K,) nor any habitation or cultivation, (K,) or nor any trace of habitation or cultivation; (S;) and ↓ مَعَامٍ signifies the same; (S, K;) this latter being a pl. of which the sing., said by ISd to be unknown to him, should by rule be معمية [app. مُعْمِيَةٌ], but it is ↓ عُمَّى, deviating from rule; (TA;) or it means مَجَاهِلُ, and its sing. is معماة [i. e. ↓ مَعْمَاةٌ] signifying a place of erring, or wandering from the right way: (Har p. 85:) in the K, أَعْمَآءٌ is also expl. as signifying جُهَّالٌ [pl. of جَاهِلٌ], and is said to be [in this sense] pl. of أَعْمَى: but this is a double mistake, for it signifies مَجَاهِلُ, [like as مَعَامٍ is said to do above,] and its sing. is عمى [app. ↓ عَمًى]. (TA.) In the phrase ↓ أَعْمَآءُ عَامِيَةٌ, [in the CK, erroneously, عامِيَّةٌ,] the latter word is added to give intensiveness to the meaning; i. e., it signifies [Tracts in which is no sign of the way, &c.,] in the utmost degree obscure or dubious: thus it is in the following verse: (TA:) Ru-beh says, أَعْمَاؤُهُ ↓ وَبَلَدٍ عَامِيَةٍ

كَأَنَّ لَوْنَ أَرْضِهِ سَمَاؤُهُ [And many a desert, or waterless desert, whereof the tracts in which is no sign of the way are in the utmost degree obscure or dubious, as though the colour of its ground were like that of its sky]: (S, TA:) he means وَرُبَّ بَلَدٍ. (S.) b2: Also Tall; applied to men: (IAar, K:) pl. of ↓ عَامٍ, like as أَنْصَارٌ is of نَاصِرٌ. (IAar, TA.) أَعْمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed أَعْمَى [q. v.]. (S, TA.) مَعْمَاةٌ; and the pl. مَعَامٍ: see أَعْمَآءٌ.

مُعَمًّى (assumed tropical:) A verse [or a saying] of which the meaning is made unapparent, obscure, or covert. (S, TA.) المُعْتَمِى The lion. (K.)

(K.) It is said in the Kur xxxvi. 6, لَقَدْ حَقَّ القَوْلُ عَلَى أَكْثَرِهِمْ, i. e. The saying, “ I will assuredly fill Hell with genii and men together,” [Kur xi. 120 and xxxii. 13,] (Bd,) or the sentence of punishment, (Jel,) hath become necessitated [as suitable to the requirements of justice, or as being just or right,] to take effect upon the greater number of them; syn. وَجَبَ, (Jel, TA,) and ثَبَتَ. (TA.) And this, namely, ثَبَتَ, is the meaning of the verb in the phrase, حَقَّ عَلَيْكَ القَضَآءُ [The sentence was, or, emphatically, is, necessitated as suitable to the requirements of justice to take effect upon thee; or it was, or is, necessary, just, or right, that the sentence should take effect upon thee]. (TA.) [In like manner,] one says, يَحِقُّ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا It is necessary for thee [as suitable to the requirements of wisdom or justice or the like], or incumbent on thee, or just or proper or right for thee, that thou shouldst do such a thing.

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

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

&c. (A, TA.) And مَا كَانَ يَحُقُّكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَهُ [virtually] means the same as مَا حُقَّ لَكَ [best rendered in this case It did not behoove thee to do it]. (TA.) One says also, حَقَّ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ [It was, or, emphatically, is, necessary &c. that thou shouldst do or to do such a thing]: but they did not say, حَقَقْتَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ. (Fr, TA.) b2: But حَقَّ عَلَىَّ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا means Thy doing so distressed, or hath distressed, or afflicted, me; or, emphatically, distresses, or afflicts, me; like عَزَّ عَلَىَّ. (S and K and TA in art. عز.) And in like manner, حَقَّ أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ [or حَقَّ مَا أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ] means عَزَّ مَا أَنَّكَ ذَاهِبٌ [It is distressing to me that thou art going away]. (TA in art. عز.) And لَحَقَّ مَا is used in the same manner as لَعَزَّ مَا, q. v. (A and TA in art. عز.) You say also, حَقَّتِ الحَاجَةُ Want befell, or betided, or happened, and was severe, or distressing: (Msb, TA:) [which is said to be] from the phrase, حَقَّتِ القِيَامَةُ, aor. ـُ The resurrection included, or shall include, within its sphere [all] the created beings. (Msb.) A2: حَقَّتْ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. حِقَّةٌ (S, * Msb, K,) and حِقٌّ, (K,) or, accord. to ISd, it should rather be حَقَاقَةٌ and حُقُوقَةٌ, because حِقَّةٌ is used as an epithet, [as will be seen below,] and the inf. n. in a case like this, by rule, should differ from the epithet, (TA,) She (a camel) became a حِقّ, or حِقَّة; i. e., entered the fourth year: (K:) and ↓ أَحَقَّ, inf. n. إِحْقَاقٌ, he (a camel) became a حِقّ: because, so they say, he is then fit to be laden: (Msb:) and ↓ احقّت she (a young camel) completed three years; (Aboo-Málik, K;) became a حِقَّة; (Ibn-'Abbád, K;) like حَقَّتْ. (TA.) You say, هُوَ حَقٌّ بَيِّنُ الحِقَّةِ [He is a حقّ, bearing evidence of being such]: (S:) and هِىَ حِقٌّ (K) and حِقَّةٌ (Msb, K) بَيِّنَةُ الحِقَّةِ [she is a حقّ or حقّة, bearing evidence &c.]: (Msb:) [a phrase] to which a parallel is scarcely known, (Msb,) or to which there is no parallel (K) except أَسَدٌ بَيِّنُ الأَسَدِ [a lion bearing evidence of being like a lion in boldness]. (TA.) b2: حِقٌّ [as inf. n. of حَقَّتْ] also signifies A she-camel's overpassing the days [corresponding to those] in which she was covered [in the preceding year]: (K:) or her completing [the time of] her pregnancy; as also ↓ اِسْتِحْقَاقٌ. (TA.) b3: And حَقَّتْ and ↓ احقّت and ↓ استحقّت She (a camel) became fat. (TA. [See also 8, last signification.]) A3: حَقَّهُ, (K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. حَقٌّ, (TA,) He, or it, rendered it [suitable to the requirements of wisdom, justice, rightness, truth, or reality or fact; or to the exigencies of the case; (see the first of the significations in this art.;) or] necessary, requisite, or unavoidable; binding, obligatory, incumbent, or due; or just, proper, or right; syn. أَوْجَبَهُ; (K;) [whence حُقَّ لَكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ ذَا, explained above;] as also ↓ حقّقهُ (K) and ↓ احقّهُ; (S, K;) which last some explain by صَيَّرَهُ حَقًّا [meaning as above; or he rendered it true;] or صيّره حقًّا لَا شَكَّ فِيهِ [he rendered it true, so that there was no doubt respecting it]; as also حَقَّهُ, inf. n. حَقٌّ: and حَقَّهُ signifies also he established it so that it became true and undoubted in his estimation: (TA:) or حَقَّهُ signifies, (S, Msb,) or signifies also, (K,) he assured, or certified, himself of it; he ascertained it; he was, or became, sure, or certain, of it; (A 'Obeyd, S, Msb, * K; *) and so ↓ تحقّقه (A 'Obeyd, S, K) and ↓ احقّهُ: (S, Msb: *) or he pronounced it, or held or believed it, to be established as a necessary truth or fact; as also ↓ احقّهُ: and ↓ حقّقهُ has a similar, but intensive, signification: (Msb:) or ↓ احقّهُ signifies he established it as true; or he judged, or decided, it to be so: (TA: [contr. of أَبْطَلَهُ: see an ex., from the Kur viii., voce أَبْطَلَ:]) and ↓ حقّقهُ, inf. n. تَحْقِيقٌ, signifies صَدَّقَهُ [as meaning he verified it, or proved it to be true or veritable; or he found it to be true or veritable; both of which significations are of very frequent occurrence]; (S, K;) as also حَقَّهُ, inf. n. حَقٌّ: and accord. to IDrd, ↓ حقّقهُ signifies [also] صَدَّقَ قَائِلَهُ [he proved, or found, or pronounced, the sayer of it to be ture]: and حقّق is also said to signify he said, “This thing is the truth; ” like صَدَّقَ. (TA.) You say, حَقَقْتُ عَلَيْهِ القَضَآءَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. حَقٌّ, I necessitated the sentence [as suitable to the requirements of justice] to take effect upon him; or necessitated [as suitable &c.] the taking effect of the sentence upon him; syn. أَوْجَبْتُهُ; as also ↓ أَحْقَقْتُهُ, inf. n. إِحْقَاقٌ. (TA.) And ↓ أُحِقَّ عَلَيْكَ القَضَآءُ The sentence was, or, emphatically, is, necessitated [as suitable to the requirements of justice] to take effect upon thee; syn. أُثْبِتَ. (TA.) And حَقَقْتُ حَذَرَهُ, (S, K,) or حِذْرَهُ, (so in one copy of the S,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (S,) [I rendered his caution, or fear, necessary; or justified it; meaning] I did that of which he was cautious, or that which he feared; (S, K;) as also حذره ↓ أَحْقَقْتُ: (S:) or, accord. to Az, the latter only is right. (TA.) And حَقَقْتُ ظَنَّهُ; (Ks, TA;) and ↓ حَقَّقْتُهُ, (Ks, S, TA,) inf. n. تَحْقِيقٌ: (S:) both signify the same; (Ks, TA;) i. e. صَدَّقْتُ; (S;) which means I found his opinion to be true; (Ksh and Bd and Jel, in xxxiv. 19;) or proved it to be true: (Ksh, ibid.:) and so قَوْلَهُ his saying: (S:) and تَحْقِيقٌ signifies [also] the strengthening, or confirming, a saying; or making it strong, or firm. (KL.) And أَنَا

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

أَحُقُّهُ [I think it, but I do not know the truth of it, or am not certain of it]. (T in art. إِيَّا; &c.) And حَقَقْتُ العُقْدَةَ, [written in the TA without any syll. signs, so that it may be either thus or ↓ حَقَّقْتُهُ; but it is most probably the former, as the quasi-pass. is not تحقّقت, but انحقّت: it signifies lit. I made the knot right, or sure; meaning] (tropical:) I tied, or made fast, or tightened, the knot; (Ibn-'Abbád, TA;) or I tied, or tightened, firmly the knot. (A, TA.) b2: [He, or it, rendered him حَقِيق, i. e. adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, proper, or worthy, to do a thing &c.; whence حُقِقْتَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَهُ, or بِأَنْ تَفْعَلَ, explained above. b3: It was necessary for him, or incumbent on him, or just or proper or right for him, or it behooved him, to do a thing &c.; whence مَا كَانَ يَحُقُّكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَهُ, explained above.] b4: Also, (S, K,) aor. ـُ (K,) inf. n. حَقٌّ, (TA,) He overcame him in disputing, or contending, for a right, or due; (S, K, * TA;) and so ↓ احقّهُ, (K,) inf. n. إِحْقَاقٌ, mentioned by Az on the authority of Ks, but, he adds, disallowed by A 'Obeyd. (TA.) See 3. b5: Also He (a man) came to him, namely, another man; (A 'Obeyd, S, K;) and so ↓ احقّهُ. (A 'Obeyd, S.) [Hence, app.,] حَقَّتْنِى الشَّمْسُ The sun reached me. (TA.) And لَا يحقُّ مَا فِى هٰذَا الوِعَآءِ رِطْلًا [app. يَحُقُّ] What is in this receptacle [does not reach, or amount, to a pound; i. e.,] does not weigh a pound. (TA.) A4: حَقَّ الطَّرِيقَ, (K,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. حَقٌّ, (TK,) He went upon the حَاقّ of the road; (K;) i. e. the middle of it: the doing of which is forbidden, in a trad., to women. (TA.) And حَقَّ فُلَانًا, (K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,) He beat, or struck, such a one in, or upon, the حاقّ of his head; (K;) i. e. the middle of it: (TA:) or in, or upon, the حُقّ of his كَتِف; i. e. the small hollow upon the head of his shoulder-blade: (K:) or, as some say, the head of the upper arm, in which is the وَابِلَة. (TA.) 2 حقّقهُ, inf. n. تَحْقِيقٌ: see حَقَّهُ, above, in six places. [Hence تَحْقِيقُ الهَمْزَةِ The uttering of the hemzeh with its ture, or proper, sound; opposed to تَخْفِيفُهَا. Hence also] صَبَغْتُ الثَّوْبَ صَبْغًا تَحْقِيقًا I dyed the garment, or piece of cloth, with a saturating dyeing. (TA.) And تَحْقِيقٌ signifies also The weaving a garment, or piece of cloth, strongly, or firmly. (KL.) A2: حقّق فِى أَمْرِهِ He was serious, or in earnest, in his affair; contr. of هَزَلَ. (L in art. جد.) 3 حاقّهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. حِقَاقٌ and مُحَاقَّةٌ, (TA,) He disputed, litigated, or contended, with him, (S, K,) each of them laying claim to a right, or due: (S, TA:) the verb is mostly used in the third person. (TA.) You say, حَاقَّنِى وَ لَمْ يُحَاقَّنِى

فِيهِ أَحَدٌ [He disputed, &c., with me, and no one had disputed, &c., with me respecting it]. (TA.) [But] you say also, ↓ حَاقَقْتُهُ فَحَقَقْتُهُ I disputed, litigated, or contended, with him for a right, or due, and I overcame him in doing so. (TA.) And إِنَّهُ لَنَزِقُ الحِقَاقِ (tropical:) Verily he is one who disputes, or litigates, or contends, respecting small things. (S, K, TA.) And مَا لَهُ فِيهِ حَقٌّ وَ لَا حِقَاقٌ, i. e. [He has no right, or due, to exact, in respect of him, or it, nor any cause of] disputing, or litigating, or contending. (S.) And it is said respecting women, (K,) in a trad. of 'Alee, (TA,) إِذَا بَلَغْنَ نَصَّ الحِقَاقِ فَالعَصَبَةُ أَوْلَى, or الحَقَائِقِ: (K:) accord. to some, الحقاق here means the same as المُحَاقَّة: accord. to others, it properly signifies the camels thus called: and so الحقائق; this [likewise] being a pl. of ↓ حِقَّةٌ; or it is pl. of ↓ حَقِيقَةٌ. (TA. [See art. نص; in which this trad. is more fully, but somewhat differently, cited; and fully explained.]) A2: [Also, app., He acted seriously, or in earnest, with him in an affair: see 3 in art. جد: and see also 2 above, last signification.]4 احقّ, [inf. n. إِحْقَاقٌ,] He spoke truth; said what was true: [very common in this sense; contr. of أَبْطَلَ:] or he revealed, or manifested, or showed, a truth, or a right or due: or he laid claim to a right, (or to a thing, TA) and it was, or became, due to him. (Msb.) A2: See also حَقَّ, as an intrans. verb, in three places; relating to camels. b2: احقّ القَوْمُ The people's cattle became fat. (TA.) And احقّ القَوْمُ مِنَ الرَّبِيعِ The people's cattle became fat by means of the [herbage called] ربيع. (AHn, * ISd, TA.) A3: As a trans. verb: see حَقَّهُ, in nine places. You say also, أَحْقَقْتُ الأَمْرَ, inf. n. as above, (tropical:) I did, performed, or executed, the affair in a firm, solid, sound, or good, manner; or put it into a firm, solid, sound, or good, state. (TA.) b2: رَمَى فَأَحَقَّ الرَّمِيَّةَ (tropical:) He cast, or shot, and killed on the spot the animal at which he cast, or shot. (Ibn-'Abbád, Z, K, * TA.) b3: أَحَقَّتْ إِبِلُنَا رَبِيعًا and ↓ استحقّت ربيعا (assumed tropical:) Our camels found [herbage such as is termed] ربيع full-grown, and pastured upon it. (TA.) 5 تحقّق [It was, or became, or proved to be, a truth, a reality, or a fact.] [Hence,] تحقّق عِنْدَهُ الخَبَرُ The information was, or proved, true, right, correct, or valid, in his estimation. (S, K. *) A2: تحقّقهُ: see حَقَّهُ.6 تَحَاقٌّ is syn. with تَخَاصُمٌ; and ↓ اِحْتِقَاقٌ, with اِخْتِصَامٌ; [The disputing, litigating, or contending, together;] (S, K;) [for] تَخَاصَمُوا and اِخْتَصَمُوا signify the same; (K in art. خصم;) [or rather] the meaning of [تحاقّ and] ↓ احتقاق is [the disputing, &c., together for a right, or due;] each one's, or every one's, saying, “The right is mine,” and “ with me; ” or demanding his right, or due. (TA.) One says, تَحَاقٌّوا [They disputed, &c., together for a right, or due]. (TK.) And ↓ اِحْتَقَّا They two disputed, &c., (K, TA,) each of them demanding his right, or due. (TA.) And فُلَانٌ وَ فُلَانٌ ↓ احتقّ [Such a one and such a one disputed, &c., together for a right, or due]. (S.) One does not say of a single person [تحاقّ nor] ↓ احتقّ; like as one does not say of one only [تخاصم nor] اختصم. (S.) 7 اِنْحَقَّتِ العُقْدَةُ (tropical:) The knot became tied, or made fast, or tightened. (Ibn-' Abbád, K, TA.) 8 إِحْتَقَ3َ see 6, throughout.

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

One says, رَمَى فُلَانٌ الصَّيْدَ فَاحْتَقَّ بَعْضًا وَ شَرَّمَ بَعْضًا (assumed tropical:) Such a one shot, or cast, at the objects of the chase, and killed some, and wounded some so that they escaped: (S:) or pierced into the bellies, or insides, of some, and wounded the skin of some without so piercing. (L.) A3: احتقّهُ إِلَى كَذَا He kept him, or held him, back, or retarded him, [until such a time, or such an event,] and straitened him. (TA.) A4: احتقّ الفَرَسُ The horse became lean, or light of flesh; or slender, and lean; or lean, and lank in the belly. (S, K, TA.) b2: and احتقّ المَالُ The cattle became fat: (K: [see also the last meaning of 1 as an intrans. verb:]) but in the A and O and L, احتقّ القَوْمُ the people's cattle became fat, and their fatness ended, or attained the extreme point. (TA.) 10 استحقّهُ He demanded it as his right, or due. (TA.) [And hence,] He had a right, or just title or claim, to it; he was, or became, entitled to it; he deserved it, or merited it; syn. اِسْتَوْجَبَهُ: (S, Msb, K:) or these two verbs are nearly the same; (TA;) [the former meaning he was, or became, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, for it; which is the most proper meaning of the phrase صَارَ حَقِيقًا بِهِ, as well as of the verb استحقّ; but this verb has also the former of these two meanings.] When a man purchases a house, and another lays claim to it, and establishes a just evidence of his claim, and the judge decides for him according to his evidence, one says of him, قَدِ اسْتَحَقَّهَا عَلَى المُشْتَرِى [He has a right to it in preference to the purchaser]; meaning that he is to possess it in preference to the purchaser. (TA.) And of a camel such as is termed حِقّ one says, استحقّ أَنْ يُرْكَبَ [He was, or has become, fit to be ridden], (K,) and أَنْ يُحْمَلَ عَلَيْهِ [to be laden]: (S, Msb:) and استحقّ الضِّرَابَ [He was, or has become, fit for covering]. (L, K.) b2: [Hence, It (an action, and anything,) deserved it, merited it, or required it.] And استحقّ إِثْمًا He did what necessitated sin; (Ksh and Bd and Jel in v. 106;) [was guilty of a sin;] and deserved its being said of him that he was a sinner; (Ksh ibid.;) i. q. اِسْتَوْجَبَهُ. (TA.) And استحقّوا They committed sins for which he who should punish them would be excusable, because they deserved punishment; like أَوْجَبُوا, and أَعْذَرُوا, and اِسْتَلَاطُوا. (IAar, TA in art. لوط.) b3: استحقّت

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

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

(S, K.) [You say, هٰذَا حَقِّى

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

This is a right, or due, belonging to me; or a thing due, or owed, to me: or this is a duty to me. And هٰذَا حَقٌّ عَلَىَّ This is a right, or due, the rendering of which is binding, obligatory, or incumbent, on me: or this is my duty. and hence, حَقُّ الطَّرِيقِ The duty that relates to the road: see art. طرق.] ↓ حَقَّةٌ is a more particular, or peculiar, or special, term.

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

(Ksh, Bd, Jel.) b13: [And hence,] Death. (K.) So accord. to some in the Kur [1. 18], where it is said, وَ جَآءَتْ سَكْرَةُ المَوْتِ بِالحَقِّ [And the confusion of the intellect by reason of the agony of death shall come with death: but other and obvious meanings are assigned to it in this instance].

(S.) You say, هُوَ حَقِيقٌ بِهِ (Sh, S, Msb, K) and به ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ (Sh, S, K) and به ↓ حَقٌّ (Ibn-'Abbád, K) [He is adapted, &c., for it; or worthy of it].

And أَنْتَ حَقِيقٌ بِأَنْ تَفْعَلَ (A, Mgh) and ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ (A) [Thou art adapted, &c., for thy doing such a thing; or worthy of doing it]. And هُوَ حَقِيقٌ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ كَذَا [He is adapted, &c., for his doing such a thing; or worthy to do it]; (S;) in which case, ان is for بِأَنْ. (Mgh.) [And حَقِيقٌ بِكَذَا also signifies Having a right, or just title or claim, to such a thing; entitled to such a thing.] It is said in the Kur [vii. 103], حَقِيقٌ عَلَى أَنْ لَا أَقْولَ عَلَى

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

مَحْقُوقٌ: see حَقِيقٌ, in six places.

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