دهر

1 دَهَرَهُمْ أَمْرٌ, (JK, A, K,) and دَهَرَ بِهِمْ أَمْرٌ, (S, TA,) aor. ـَ (K,) An event befell them (S, A) from fate, or fortune: (A:) or an evil event befell them. (JK, K.) In a trad. respecting the death of Aboo-Tálib occur these words [as said by him]: لَوْ لَا أَنًّ قُرَيْشًا تَقُولُ دَهَرَهُ الجَزَعُ لَفَعَلْتُ [Were it not that the tribe of Kureysh would say, Impatience hath befallen him, (or, perhaps, constrained him, from دَهْرٌ signifying “fate,” or overcome him, see what follows,) I would do it]. (TA.) b2: دَهَرَهُ, (Bd in xlv. 23,) inf. n. دَهْرٌ, (K,) He overcame, conquered, subdued, overpowered, or mastered, him; gained the mastery, prevailed, or predominated, over him; or surpassed him. (Bd ubi suprà, B, * K.) 3 عَامَلَهُ مُدَاهَرَةٌ and دِهَارًا is like مُشَاهَرَةً [i. e. it means He made an engagement, or a contract, or bargain, with him to work, or the like, for a long period, or for a constancy; like as مُشَاهَرَةً means“for a month”]. (K.) And in like manner one says, اِسْتَأْجَرَهُ مُدَاهَرَةً and دِهَارًا [He hired him for a long period, or for a constancy]. (Lh, TA.) Q. Q. 1 دَهْوَرَهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. دَهْوَرَةٌ, (TA,) He collected it together, and threw it into a deep place. (S, K.) b2: He pushed it, namely, a wall, so that it fell. (K.) b3: دهوراللُّقَمَ He made the mouthfuls large, (S, A,) or round, (Az,) and gulped them down. (Az, A.) Q. Q. 2 تَدَهْوَرَ It (sand) poured down, and for the most part fell. (Msb.) b2: And hence, He, or it, fell down, from a higher to a lower place. (Msb.) b3: And It (the night) for the most part went: (Msb:) or departed, or retreated. (K, TA.) دَهْرٌ (T, S, M, K, &c.) and ↓ دَهَرٌ, (M, K,) the latter either a dial. var., agreeably with the opinion of the Basrees in cases of this kind, and therefore such cases are limited by the authority of hearsay, or it is so written and pronounced because of the guttural letter, and so is accordant to a universal rule, agreeably with the opinion of the Koofees, (ISd,) Time, from the beginning of the world to its end; (Esh-Sháfi'ee, Az, Msb, Er-Rághib;) as also حِينٌ: (Esh-Sháfi'ee, Az:) this is the primary signification: (Er-Rághib:) and any long period of time; (Z, Mgh, K, Er-Rághib;) thus differing from زَمَانٌ, which will be explained below: (Er-Rághib:) and a portion of the longest period of time: (Az:) or دَهْرٌ signifies, (S, A,) or signifies also, (Az, Msb,) time; or a time; or a space, or period, of time; syn. زَمَانٌ, (Sh, Az, S, A, Mgh, Msb,) whether long or short: (Msb:) or this is the proper signification of زَمَانٌ, but not of دَهْرٌ: (Er-Rághib:) and (tropical:) a division of the year: and (tropical:) a less period: (Az, Msb:) Az says, I have heard more than one of the Arabs say, أَقَمْنَا عَلَى مَآءِ كَذَا دَهْرًا [We stayed at such a water a long time, or a time]; and هٰذَا المَرْعَى يَكْفِينَا دَهْرًا [This pasture-land will suffice us a long time, or a time]; but one does not say that الدَّهْرُ is four times, or four seasons, because its application to (tropical:) a short period of time is tropical, and an extension of its proper signification: (Msb:) or it signifies i. q. أَبَدٌ [meaning a long unlimited time; or an extended indivisible space of time; or duration without end; time without end]; (S, Msb;) it differs from زَمَانٌ in having no end: (Khálid Ibn-Yezeed:) or a prolonged, or lengthened, term; syn. أَبَدٌ مَمْدُودٌ: (K, in some copies of which, in the place of ابد, we find أَمَد:) and (tropical:) the period, or duration, of life; an age: (Kull p. 183:) the present state of existence: (Msb:) and (assumed tropical:) a thousand years: (K:) pl. [of pauc.] أَدْهُرٌ (K) and [of mult.] دُهُورٌ: (S, A, K:) both said to be pls. of دَهْرٌ, and no other pls. are known as those of دَهَرٌ; the form أَدْهَارٌ not having been heard. (TA.) b2: You say مَضَى عَلَيْهِ دَهْرٌ and دُهُورٌ [A long time and long times, or an age and ages, &c., passed over him, or it]. (A.) b3: And كَانَ ذٰلِكَ دَهْرَ النَّجْمِ That was in the time of God's creation of the stars; meaning, in the beginning of time; in ancient time. (A.) b4: [And فِى أَوَّلِ الدَّهْرِ In the beginning of time. (A.) b5: [And يَبْقَى الدَّهْرَ It remains for ever. b6: And لَا آتِيهِ الدَّهْرَ I will not come to him, ever. See also دَاهِرٌ.] b7: And صَامَ الدَّهْرَ [He fasted ever, or always]. (TA in art. اول, &c. [See a trad. cited voce آلَ, in that art.]) b8: [Hence, because, in one sense, time brings to pass events, good and evil,] الدَّهْرُ was applied by the Arabs to Fortune; or fate: and they used to blame and revile it: and as the doing so was virtually blaming and reviling God, since events are really brought to pass by Him, Mohammad forbade their doing thus. (Az, Mgh, TA, &c.) It is said in a trad., لَا تَسُبُّوا الدَّهْرَ فَإِنَّ الدَّهْرَ هُوَ اللّٰهُ, (S, Mgh, TA, &c.,) or, accord. to one reading, فَإِنَّ اللّٰهُ هُوَ الدَّهْرُ, (Az, Mgh, TA, &c.,) in which some explain الدهر in the first proposition as having a different meaning from that which it has in the second, whereas others assign to it the same meaning in both cases: (TA:) the meaning of the trad. is, Revile ye not [fortune, or] the Efficient of fortune; for the Efficient of fortune is God: (Az, S, TA, &c.:) or, accord. to the second reading, for God is the Efficient of fortune. (TA.) Hence, (TA,) some reckon الدَّهْرُ as one of the names of God: (K, &c.:) but some disallow this: and some say that it is allowable if meant to signify, as rendered above, the Efficient of fortune. (TA, &c.) b9: زَوْجُ دَهْرٍ A husband prepared for the accidents or calamities of fortune. (S in art. بهر. [See بَهْرٌ.]) b10: دَهْرٌ also signifies An evil event or accident; a misfortune; a calamity. (K.) See also دَهَارِيرُ.

[And see 1.] b11: Also A purpose; an intention: (S, K:) a desire: (TA:) the scope, or end that one has in view. (K, TA.) You say, مَا دَهْرِى

بِكَذَا, (S, TA,) and مَا دَهْرِى كَذَا, (TA,) My purpose, or intention, (S, TA,) and my desire, and my scope, or the end that I have in view, (TA,) is not such a thing. (S, TA.) b12: Also (tropical:) A custom, or habit, (S, K,) that is constant, or permanent, (Kull p. 183,) or that lasts throughout life. (TA.) You say, مَا ذَاكَ بِدَهْرِى (tropical:) That is not my custom, or habit, (S,) that lasts throughout my life: (TA:) and مَا دَهْرِى بِكَذَا (tropical:) My habit throughout life is not so. (TA.) دَهَرٌ: see دَهْرٌ.

دَهْرِىٌّ (S, A, Msb, K) and ↓ دُهْرِىٌّ (K) One who deviates from the truth, and introduces into it that which does not belong to it, syn. مُلْحِدٌ; (S, A;) who asserts that the duration of the present world is from eternity, (A, Msb,) or that it is everlasting, (K,) and does not believe in the resurrection, (Msb,) or in the world to come. (TA.) b2: And the latter, (S, A, Msb, K,) or the former, (IAmb,) An old, or aged, man. (IAmb, S, A, Msb, K.) Th says that both are rel. ns. from الدَّهْرُ, though the latter is contr. to rule, [as is also remarked in the Msb,] like سُهْلِىٌّ from الأَرْضُ السَّهْلَةُ. (S.) b3: Some say also that the latter signifies An acute, or ingenious, or expert, man. (TA.) دُهْرِىٌّ: see the next preceding paragraph.

دِهْرَارٌ: see دَهَارِيرُ.

دُهرُورٌ: see دَهَارِيرُ.

دِهْرِيرٌ: see دَهَارِيرُ.

دَهيِرٌ: see دَاهِرٌ.

دَهَارِيرُ, a pl. without a sing.; (K, TA;) or its sing. is ↓ دَهْرٌ, like as the sing. of مَذَاكِيرُ is ذَكَرٌ, and that of مَشَابِهُ, شَبَهٌ; or its sing. is ↓ دُهْرُورٌ, or ↓ دِهْرَارٌ, [in the TA written by mistake دهرات,] or ↓ دِهْرِيرٌ; (TA;) Misfortunes; calamities: as in the phrase وَقَعَ فِى الدَّهَارِيرِ He fell into misfortunes, or calamities. (A, TA.) b2: Also Severe, or calamitous. (S.) It is said in a trad. of Sateeh, فَإِنَّ ذَا الدَّهْرَ أَطْوَارًا دَهَارِيرُ [For verily this age is at times calamitous]. (TA.) دَهْرٌ دَهَارِيرُ, A severe, or calamitous, age, is a phrase like لَيْلَةُ لَيْلَآءُ, and نَهَارٌ أَنْهَرُ, &c.: (S:) [see also دَاهِرٌ:] and it also signifies a time of two states, adverse and prosperous: (TA:) and دُهُورٌ دَهَارِيرٌ, various, or varying, times: (K:) or long times. (A.) [See دَاهِرٌ.] b3: Also دَهَارِيرُ [or rather, as IbrD says, دَهْرُ الدَّهَارِيرِ, for this has the signification immediately following,] The beginning of time past: and [absolutely] preceding, or past, time. (K, TA.) You say كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى

دَهْرِ الدَّهَارِيرِ [That was in the beginning of past time: or in the time of by-gone ages]. (TA.) دَهْرٌ دَاهِرٌ (S, K) and ↓ دَهْرٌ دَهِيرٌ (K) are phrases in which the epithet has an intensive effect, [meaning A long, or an endless, period, or course, of time,] (K,) like أَبَدٌ أَبِيدٌ (S, TA) and أَبَدٌ آبِدٌ: (TA:) or a severe, or calamitous, age. (TA.) [See also دَهَارِيرُ.] b2: لَا آتِيكَ دَهْرَ الدَّهِرِينَ I will not come to thee, ever: (S, K:) similar to the phrase أَبَدَ الآبِدِينَ. (TA.) هُمْ مَدْهُورٌ بِهِمٌ, and مَدْهُورُونَ, They are afflicted with an evil event. (K.)

(S,) is like مُشَاهَرَةً [and شِهَارًا] (S, K) from الشَّهْرُ. (S.) 4 ازمن [He, or it, continued a long time;] a long time passed over him, or it, (K, * TA,) i. e. a thing. (TA.) You say, ازمن بِالمَكَانِ He remained, staid, dwelt, or abode, a long time (زَمَانًــا) in the place. (TA.) b2: And [hence,] ازمن عَنِّى

عَطَاؤُهُ (tropical:) His gift [was a long time kept back from me, or] was slow, or tardy, in coming to me. (TA.) A2: ازمن فُلَانًا He (God) made such a one to be such as is termed زَمِن, i. e. affected with a protracted disease; (Msb, TA;) or crippled, or deprived of the power to move or to stand or to walk, by disease, or by a protracted disease: or made him to be affected with what is termed [زَمَانَــةٌ, expl. below, as meaning] عَاهَةٌ [&c.].

(of زَمَنٌ, Msb) is أَــزْمَانٌ and أَزْمُنٌ and (that of زَمَانٌ, Msb) أَزْمِنَةٌ. (S, Msb, K.) [The dim. of زَمَنٌ, i. e. زُمَيْنٌ, see below.] In the following trad., إِذَا تَقَارَبَ لَمْ تَكَدْ رُؤيَا المُؤْمِنِ تَكْذِبُ ↓ الــزَّمَانُ [When the time becomes contracted, the dream of the believer will scarcely ever, or never, be false], what is meant is the end of time; and the approach of the resurrection; because when a thing becomes little, its extremities contract: or what is meant is the day's and the night's becoming equal; for the interpreters of dreams assert that the times [of dreams] most true of interpretation are the season of the breaking forth of the blossoms and that of the ripening of the fruit, which is when the day and the night become equal: or what is meant is the coming forth of El-Mahdee, when the year will be like the month, and the month like the week, and the week like the day, and the day like the hour, deemed short because deemed delightful: (K in art. قرب:) or it alludes to the shortness of lives and the scantiness of blessings. (TA in that art.) In another trad. it is said, كَانَتْ تَأْتِينَا أَــزْمَانَ خَدِيجَةَ, meaning [She used to come to us] in the life-time [lit. times] of Khadeejeh. (TA.) And one says also, مَا لَقِيتُهُ مُذْ

↓ زَمَنَةٍ, meaning ↓ مذ زَمَانٍ [i. e. I have not met him for a long time past: but in this case, accord. to the more approved usage, one should say مُذْ زَمَنَةٌ and مُذْ زَمَانٌ, or مُنْذُ زَمَنَةٍ and مُنْذُ زَمَانٍ]. (Lh, K, * TA.) (For authorities, and further information, see the words here mentioned, and more particularly نَوْءٌ and رَبِيعٌ; under the latter of which it is said that the third and last of the Six Seasons are called by some, respectively, الرَّبِيعُ الثَّانِى and الرَّبِيعُ الأَوَّلُ; and also that the appellations of the 3rd and 4th months are differently pronounced by different persons; and that some exclude the وَسْمِىّ from the rains called الرَّبِيعُ: and for the Calendar of the Mansions of the Moon, see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل.) The months are said to have received the names here given to them from Kiláb Ibn-Murrah, an ancestor of Mohammad, about two centuries before El-Islám. These months were lunar; and from this period, with the view of adapting their year to the solar, the Arabs added a month, which they called النَّسِىْءُ, at the end of every three years, until they were forbidden to do so by the Kur-án (ch. ix.): but the months still retrograded through the seasons, though much more slowly. The abolition of the intercalation was proclaimed by Mohammad at the pilgrimage in the tenth year of the Flight.

(TA.) b2: [Hence,] هُوَ فَاتِرُ النَّشَاطِ زَمِنُ الرَّغْبَةِ (tropical:) [He is remiss in respect of briskness or promptness, powerless in respect of desire]. (TA.) زُمْنَةٌ: see زَمَنٌ, second sentence.

زُمَيْنٌ [dim. of زَمَنٌ]. You say, لَقِيتُهُ ذَاتَ الزُّمَيْنِ, meaning thereby تَرَاخِى الوَقْتِ; (S, K;) [i. e.

(S, * Msb, K.) b2: [Used as a simple subst.] it signifies also A disease, or an evil affection, syn. آفَةٌ, (S,) or عَاهَةٌ, (K,) in animals: (S:) [and particularly, in a man, a disease of long continuance: or such as cripples, or deprives of the power to move or to stand or to walk: (see زَمِنَ and زَمِنٌ:)] or want of some one or more of the limbs, or members; and privation of the powers, or faculties. (Har p. 315.) And i. q. دَهْرٌ [app. as meaning An evil event or accident, a misfortune, or a calamity]. (KL.) b3: Also Love. (K.) سَاعَةٌ زَمَانِــيَّةٌ A while; an indefinite short time; as distinguished from سَاعَةٌ فَلَكِيَّةٌ, which is an astronomical hour: and so, often, سَاعَةٌ alone.]

منذ

مُنْدُ is a simple word; (K;) or, accord. to some, a compound word, as will be explained hereáfter: (TA:) Sb says, that it is with respect to time like مِنْ with respect to place: (S, L:) it is indecl., [generally] with damm for its termination; and مُذْ is indecl. also, [generally] with its final letter quiescent, (S, L, K,) [unless followed by a quiescent letter, when it is movent in different manners which will be shown below,] and it is formed from مُنْذُ by elision: (M, L, K:) منذ is also written and pronounced مِنْذُ, (M, L, K,) in the dial. of the Benoo-Suleym; (M, L;) and مذ, مِذْ, (M, L, K,) in the dial. of the tribe of 'Okl. (M, L.) Each may be a prep., governing what follows it in the gen. case, and used in the same manner as فِى [signifying In, or during, or from the beginning of]: and in this case, each is prefixed only to that which denotes present time: thus you say, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذُ اللَّيْلَةِ [I have not seen him in this night; or simply I have not seen him this night]: (S, L:) or each is followed by a noun in the gen. case, and in this instance is a prep., in the sense of مِنْ [meaning Since, or lit., from,] when relating to a past time [such as a particular past day or the like]; and in the sense of فِى [meaning In, or from the beginning of,] when relating to the present time; and in the sense of مِنْ and إِلَى

together [meaning From the beginning to the end of; or during the whole course of; or simply during, or for;] when relating to a computed period of time, or number of days or the like: ex. [relating to a past time,] مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمِ الخَمِيسِ [I have not seen him since Thursday, إِلَى الْآنَ to the present time]; (Mughnee, K;) and [relating to the present time,] مُنْذُ يَوْمِنَا or عَامِنَا [in, or from the beginning of, (this) our day, or (this) our year;]; and, [relating to a computed period of time, or number of days or the like,] مُنْذُ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ

[from the beginning to the end of, i. e., during, or for, three days]. (Mughnee.) Each may also be a noun, governing the noun which follows it in the nom. case, as signifying a particular day or the like, or as signifying a definite length of time: in the case of a noun signifying a particular day or the like, you say, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذْ يَوْمُ الجُمْعَةِ [I have not seen him (since the commencement of a space of time); the commencement of the space of time thereof (i. e., أَوَّلُ مُدَّةِ عَدَمِ رُؤْيَتِى إِيَّاهُ the commencement of the space of time of my not seeing him) was Friday; meaning, since Friday]: and, in the case of a noun signifying a definite length of time, you say, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذْ سَنَةٌ, meaning, أَمَدُ ذٰلِكَ سَنَةٌ, [I have not seen him (during, or for, a time); the time thereof (i. e., أَمَدُ عَدَمِ رُؤْيَتِى إِيَّاهُ the time of my not seeing him) is a year; meaning, during, or for, a year;] and the noun in this latter case can only be indeterminate; for you cannot say, مُذْ سَنَةُ كَذَا: (S:) when followed by a noun in the nom. case, as in the instance of مُنْذُ يَوْمَانِ [or, accord. to more approved usage, مُذْ يَوْمَانِ, as will be shown below, The time is two days, meaning during, or for, two days], each is an inchoative, and what follows it is an enunciative; and its meaning is the time with respect to what is present, and to a computed period, or a number of days or the like; and the commencement of the space of time with respect to a past time [such as a particular past day or the like]: or each is an adv. n. [of time], an enunciative, of which what follows is the inchoative, and meaning بَيْنَ وَبَيْنَ, as in the instance of لَقِيتُهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمَانِ, [or, rather, مُذْ يَوْمَانِ,] i. e., بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَ لِقَائِهِ يَوْمَانِ [Two days have been between the time in which I now am and (the time of) my meeting him]: (K:) but this opinion is rejected by Ibn-Hájib. (TA.) Accord. to some of the Arabs, for they differ on this point, مذ governs in the gen. case a noun signifying a past time and one signifying a time not past: and accord. to some of them, منذ governs in the nom. case a noun signifying a past time and one signifying a time not past: (M, L:) but the general and most approved way is to make مذ govern in the gen. case a noun signifying a time not past, and in the nom. case one signifying a time past; and to make منذ govern in the gen. case a noun signifying a time not past and one signifying a time past: (T, M, L:) most of the Arabs hold, that each must govern in the gen. case a noun signifying the present time; and that it is preferable to make منذ govern in the same case, and to make مذ govern in the nom. case, a noun signifying a past time: (Mughnee:) [they therefore say, مُنْذُ اللَّيْلَةِ and مُذُ اللَّيْلَةِ, and مُنْذُ يَوْمِ الخَمِيسِ and مُنْذُ يَوْمَينِ; but they say, مُذْ يَوْمُ الخَمِيسِ and مُذْ يَوْمَانِ.] Some [or, rather, most] say, لَمْ أَرَهُ مُذْ يَوْمَانِ, and لَمْ أَرَهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمَينِ, [I have not seen him for, or during, two days;] making مذ [in these instances] to govern the nom. case; and منذ, the gen. case. (L.) Such is said when the period of separation is a day and part of a day. (Msb, art. شهر.) The Benoo-Dabbeh and Er-Rabáb make مذ to govern the gen. case in every instance. (M, L.) The phrases, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذْ عَامٌ أَوَّلُ, and مُذْ عَامٌ أَوَّلَ, (S, K, art. وأل; and L,) and مُذْ عَامُ الأَوَّلِ, and مُذْ عَامًا أَوَّلَ, [I have not seen him since last year,] are also mentioned by different authors. (L.) The Arabs generally agree in pronouncing منذ with damm to the ذ when it is followed by a movent or a quiescent letter; (T, M, L;) as in لَمْ أَرَهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمٍ, and مُنْذُ اليَوْمِ: (T, L:) and to pronounce مذ with the ذ quiescent when it is followed by a movent letter, (T, M, L,) and with damm and [sometimes] with kesr when it is followed by a conjunctive ا; (M, L;) as in لَمْ أَرَهُ مُذْ يَوْمَانِ, and لَمْ أَرَهُ مُذُ اليَوْمِ, [and مُذِ اليَوْمِ]: (T, L:) and so say most of the grammarians. (T.) Lh says, The Benoo-'Obeyd, of the tribe of Ghanee, make the ذ of مذ movent when it is followed by a movent or a quiescent letter, and make the noun following it to be in the nom. case, saying مُذُ اليَوْمُ; and some of them pronounce it with kesr when followed by a quiescent letter, saying مُذِ اليَوْمُ; but this is not the proper way. (M, L.) In the phrase مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذُ اليَوْمِ, the Arabs make the ذ movent because of the occurrence [otherwise] of two quiescent letters together; and they [generally] give it not kesr, but damm, because the latter is the final vowel of its original منذ. (M, L.) One says also, مَا لَقِيتُةُ مُنْذَ اليَوْمِ, and مُذَ اليَوْمِ, which fet-h to the ذ in each. (K.) The Benoo-Suleym are related to have used the expression مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مِنْذُ سِتٌّ [by ستّ meaning six nights], with kesr to the م of منذ, and with the noun following it in the nom. case: and the tribe of 'Okl are related to have used the expression مِذُ يَوْمَانِ, with the ن elided, and with kesr to the م, and damm to the ذ. (M, L.) b2: Each of the two words منذ and مذ is also followed by a verbal proposition, as in the instance مَا زَالَ مُذْ عَقَدَتْ يَدَاهُ إِزَازَهُ [He has not ceased, since his two hands tied his wrapper of the lower part of the body]: or a nominal proposition, as in the instance وَلَا زِلْتُ أَبْغِى المَالَ مُذْ أَنَا يَافِعٌ [And I ceased not to seek wealth from the time of my being a youth, or young man]: in such cases, each is an adv. n. prefixed to the proposition [and governing it virtually in the gen. case], or to a noun significant of time [understood as] prefixed thereto [in the same manner]: or, as some say, each is an inchoative. (K.) b3: The original of مذ is منذ, because they restore the dammeh to the ذ in the case of the occurrence of two quiescent letters together; as in the instance of مُذُ اليَوْمِ, for were not its original with damm, they would give it kesr: [but this some do, as has been shown above:] and because its dim. is مُنَيْذٌ: (K:) for when مذ is used as a proper name of a man, its dim. is thus formed, by restoring the ن, that it may be of the measure فُعَيْلٌ: (IJ, M, L:) or when مذ is a noun, it is originally منذ; and when it is a particle, it is itself original. (K.) b4: Accord. to some, منذ (T, S, L, K) and مذ (K) are originally مِنْ and إِذْ, which are made one word, (T, S, L, K,) by eliding the hemzeh, and then giving damm to the ذ because of the occurrence of two quiescent letters together; (K;) مُنْذُ كَانَ [and مُذْ كَانَ] meaning مِنْ إِذْ كَانَ: (T, L:) but there is nothing to indicate the truth of this opinion: (S, L:) or, as some say, منذ and مذ are originally the prep.

من and ذو in the sense of الَّذِى (L, K) in the dial. of Teiyi: so says Fr.; adding, that when either governs a gen. case, it is used in the manner of مَنْ; and when it governs a nom. case, it is as though one said, [in using the expression مُنْذُ أَوْ مُذْ يَوْمَانِ,] مِنَ الَّذِى هُوَ يَوْمَانِ; and that the former government prevails in the case of منذ because the ن is not suppressed: (L:) or, as some say, they are originally مِنْ and the noun of indication ذَا; so that in the phrase مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمَانِ, [accord. to more approved usage, مُذْ يَوْمَانِ,] we virtually say, مِنْ ذَا الْوَقْتِ يَوْمَانِ: but each of these assertions is a deviation from the plain way. (K.)

علم المنطق
ويسمى علم الميزان أيضا وهو: علم يتعرف منه كيفية اكتساب المجهولات التصورية والتصديقية من معلوماتها.
وموضوعه: المعقولات الثانية من حيث الإيصال إلى المجهول أو النفع فيه.
والغرض منه: عصمة الذهن عن الخطأ في الفكر.
ومنفعته: الإصابة في جميع العلوم.
قال في الكشف: الغرض منه ومنفعته ظاهران من الكتب المبسوطة في المنطق كذا قال في مفتاح السعادة انتهى.
والمنطق لكون حاكما على جميع العلوم في الصحة والسقم والقوة والضعف وأجلها نفعا وأعظمها سماه أبو نصر الفارابي: رئيس العلوم.
ولكونه آلة في تحصيل العلوم الكسبية النظرية والعملية لا مقصودا بالذات سماه الشيخ الرئيس ابن سينا بخادم العلوم.
وحكى أبو حيان في تفسيره البحر: إن أهل المنطق بجزيرة الأندلس كانوا يعبرون عن المنطق بالمفعل تحررا عن صولة الفقهاء حتى إن بعض الوزراء أراد أن يشتري لابنه كتابا من المنطق فاشتراه خفية خوفا منهم مع أنه أصل كل علم وتقويم كل ذهن انتهى.
قال الغزالي: من لم يعرف المنطق فلا ثقة له في العلوم أصلا حتى روي عن بعضهم أنه فرض كفاية وعن بعضهم فرض عين بناء على أن معرفة الله تعالى بطريق البرهان واجبة وإنها لا تتم إلا بعلم المنطق فما لا يتم الواجب إلا به فهو واجب قال القائل:
إن رمت إدراك العلوم بسرعة ... فعليك بالنحو القويم ومنطق
هذا الميزان العقول مرجح ... والنحو إصلاح اللسان بمنطق
قال في كشف الظنون: قال الشيخ أبو علي بن سينا: المنطق نعم العون على إدراك العلوم كلها وقد رفض هذا العلم وجحد منفعته من لم يفهمه ولا اطلع عليه عداوة لما جهل وبعض الناس ربما يتوهم أنه يشوش العقائد مع أنه موضوع للاعتبار والتحرير.
وسبب هذا التوهم أن من الأغبياء الأغمار الذين لم تؤدبهم الشريعة من اشتغل بهذا العلم واستضعف حجج بعض العلوم واستخف بها وبأهلها ظنا منه أنها برهانية لطيشه وجهله بحقائق العلوم ومراتبها فالفساد لا من العلم.
قالوا: ويستغنى عنه المؤيد من الله تعالى ومن علمه ضروري ويحتاج إليه من عداهما.
فإن قلت: إذا كان الاحتياج بهذه المرتبة فما بال الأئمة المقتدى بهم كمالك والشافعي وأبي حنيفة وأحمد بن حنبل رحمهم الله لم ينقل عنهم الاشتغال به وإنما هو من العلوم الفلسفية وقد شنع العلماء على من عربها وأدخلها في علوم الإسلام ونقل عن شيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية الحنبلي رحمه الله أنه كان يقول: ما أظن الله تعالى يغفل عن المأمون العباسي ولا بد أن يعاقبه بما أدخل على هذه الأمة.
فجوابه إن ذلك مركوز في جبلاتهم السليمة وفطرتهم المستقيمة ولم يفتهم إلا العبارات والاصطلاحات كما ذكر في علم النحو.
وأصول المنطق تسعة على المشهور:
الأول: باب الكليات الخمس:.
الثاني: باب التعريفات.
الثالث: باب التصديقات.
الرابع: باب القياس.
الخامس: البرهان.
السادس: الخطابة.
السابع: الجدل.
الثامن: المغالطة.
التاسع: الشعر هذا خلاصة ما في العلمي حاشية شرح هداية الحكمة الميبذية وشرح حكمة العين وغيرها.
والكتب المصنفة في المنطق كثيرة منها: إيساغوجي وبحر الفرائد وتيسير الفكر وجامع الدقاق والشمسية غرة النجاة والقواعد الجلية ولوامع الأفكار والمطالع ومجل النظر ومعيار الأفكار وناظر العين ونخبة الفكر وغير ذلك انتهى ما في الكشف وكشاف اصطلاحات الفنون. ومن كتبه المرقاة للشيخ الفاضل فضل إمام الخير آبادي وهو مختصر مفيد وعليه شرح لحفيده المولوي عبد الحق.
وتهذيب المنطق للتفتازاني والصغرى والكبرى بالفارسية للسيد السند الشريف الجرجاني رحمه الله إلى غير ذلك.
قال بعضهم: والذي أجاب به شيخ الإسلام من كون المنطق مرتكزا في نفوسهم جواب ضعيف لا يخفى ضعفه على من يعقل ويعرف مقاصد الشريعة الغراء انتهى.
أقول: ارجع إلى كتاب رد المنطقيين لابن تيمية رحمه الله واعلم أن جواباته كثيرة وكلها صواب حق لا يسع ذكرها هذا المقام وهذا الجواب أيضا صواب يعرفه من منحه الله طبعا سليما لا اعوجاج فيه وصاحب القلب الصحيح والفكر السليم لا يحتاج إلى علم المنطق بل يصدر عنه العلم المطابق له من غير درية بهذا الفن كما يصدر الكلام الموزون ممن لا يعلم بعلم العروض والقافية ولا يحسن تقطيعات الأشعار ويقول نظما كثيرا وينظم قصائد طويلة ولا يعرف أوزان الشعر ولا بحوره فأي استبعاد في كون المنطق مرتكزا في نفوس بعض العباد الصحيح الفؤاد السلم المراد.
وقد اختلف أهل العلم في أن المنطق من العلم أم لا فتدبر.
قال ابن خلدون في بيان هذا العلم: هو قوانين يعرف بها الصحيح من الفاسد في الحدود والمعرفة للماهيات والحجج المفيدة للتصديقات وذلك أن الأصل في الإدراكات إنما هو المحسوسات بالحواس الخمس وجميع الحيوانات مشتركة في هذا الإدراك من الناطق وغيره
وإنما يتميز الإنسان عنها بإدراك الكليات وهي مجردة من المحسوسات وذلك بأن يحصل في الخيال من الأشخاص المتفقة صورة منطبقة على جميع تلك الأشخاص المحسوسة هي الكلي ثم ينظر الذهن بين تلك الأشخاص المتفقة وأشخاص أخرى توافقها في بعض فيحصل له صورة تنطبق أيضا عليهما باعتبار ما اتفقا فيه ولا يزال يرتقي في التجريد إلى الكل الذي لا يجد كليا آخر معه يوفاقه فيكون لأجل ذلك بسيطا. وهذا مثل ما يجرد من أشخاص الإنسان صورة النوع المنطبقة عليها ثم ينظر بينه وبين الحيوان ويجرد صورة الجنس المنطبقة عليهما ثم بينهما وبين النبات إلى أن ينتهي إلى الجنس العالي وهو الجوهر فلا يجد كليا يوافقه في شيء فيقف العقل هنالك عن التجريد.
ثم إن الإنسان لما خلق الله له الفكر الذي به يدرك العلوم والصنائع وكان العلم إما تصور للماهيات ويعني به إدراك ساذج من غير حكم معه.
وأما تصديقا أي: حكما بثبوت أمر لأمر فصار سعي الفكر في تحصل المطلوبات.
إما بأن تجمع تلك الكليات بعضها إلى بعض على جهة التأليف فتحصل صورة في الذهن كلية منطبقة على أفراد في الخارج فتكون تلك الصورة الذهنية مفيدة لمعرفة ماهية تلك الأشخاص
وإما بأن يحكم بأمر على أمر فيثبت له ويكون ذلك تصديقا وغايته في الحقيقة راجعة إلى التصور لأن فائدة ذلك إذا حصل إنما هي معرفة حقائق الأشياء التي هي مقتضى العلم.
وهذا السعي من الفكر قد يكون بطريق صحيح. وقد يكون بطريق فاسد فاقتضى ذلك تمييز الطريق الذي يسعى به الفكر في تحصيل المطالب العلمية ليتميز فيها الصحيح من الفاسد فكان ذلك قانون المنطق.
وتكلم فيه المتقدمون أول ما تكلموا به جملا جملا ومتفرقا ولم تهذب طرقه ولم تجمع مسائله حتى ظهر في يونان أرسطو فهذب مباحثه ورتب مسائله وفصوله وجعله أول العلوم الحكمية وفاتحتها ولذلك يسمى بالمعلم الأول وكتابه المخصوص بالمنطق يسمى النص وهو يشمل على ثمانية كتب أربعة منها في صورة القياس وأربعة في مادته.
وذلك إن المطالب التصديقية على أنحاء:
فمنها ما يكون المطلوب فيه اليقين بطبعه.
ومنها ما يكون المطلوب فيه الظن وهو على مراتب فينظر في القياس من حيث المطلوب الذي يفيده وما ينبغي أن تكون مقدماته بذلك الاعتبار ومن أي جنس يكون من العلم أو من الظن وقد ينظر في القياس لا باعتبار مطلوب مخصوص بل من جهة إنتاجه خاصة.
ويقال للنظر الأول: إنه من حيث المادة ونعني به المادة المنتجة للمطلوب المخصوص من يقين أو ظن ويقال للنظر الثاني: إنه من حيث الصورة وإنتاج القياس على الإطلاق فكانت لذلك كتب المنطق ثمانية.
الأول: في الأجناس العالية التي ينتهي إليها تجريد المحسوسات وهي التي ليس فوقها جنس ويسمى كتاب المقولات.
والثاني: في القضايا التصديقية وأصنافها ويسمى: كتاب العبارة.
والثالث: في القياس وصورة إنتاجه على الإطلاق ويسمى كتاب القياس وهذا آخر النظر من حيث الصورة.
ثم الرابع: كتاب البرهان وهو النظر في القياس المنتج لليقين وكيف يجب أن تكون مقدماته يقينية ويختص بشروط أخرى لإفادة اليقين مذكورة فيه مثل كونها ذاتية وأولية وغير ذلك وفي هذا الكتاب الكلام في المعرفات والحدود إذ المطلوب فيها إنما هو اليقين لوجوب المطابقة بين الحد والمحدود لا تحتمل غيرها فلذلك اختصت عند المتقدمين بهذا الكتاب.
والخامس: كتاب الجدل وهو القياس المفيد قطع المشاغب وإفحام الخصم وما يجب أن يستعمل فيه من المشهورات ويختص أيضا من جهة إفادته لهذا الغرض بشروط أخرى من حيث إفادته لهذا الغرض وهي مذكورة هناك وفي هذا الكتاب يذكر المواضع التي يستنبط منها صاحب القياس قياسه ومنه عكوس القضايا.
والسادس: كتاب السفسطة: وهو القياس الذي يفيد خلاف الحق ويغالط به المناظر صاحبه وهو فاسد وهذا إنما كتب ليعرف به القياس المغالطي فيحذر منه.
والسابع: كتاب الخطابة وهو القياس المفيد ترغيب الجمهور وحملهم على المراد منهم وما يجب أن يستعمل في ذلك من المقالات.
والثامن: كتاب الشعر وهو القياس الذي يفيد التمثيل والتشبيه خاصة للإقبال على الشيء أو النفرة عنه وما يجب أن يستعمل فيه من القضايا التخييلية هذه هي كتب المنطق الثمانية عند المتقدمين.
ثم أن حكماء اليونانيين بعد أن تهذبت الصناعة ورتبت رأوا أنه لا بد من الكلام في الكليات الخمس المفيدة للتصور فاستدركوا فيها مقالة تختص بها مقدمة بين يدي الفن فصارت تسعا وترجمت كلها في الملة الإسلامية وكتبها وتداولها فلاسفة الإسلام بالشرح والتلخيص كما فعله الفارابي وابن سينا ثم ابن رشد من فلاسفة الأندلس ولابن سينا كتاب الشفا استوعب فيه علوم الفلسفة السبعة كلها.
ثم جاء المتأخرون فغيروا اصطلاحات المنطق والحقوا بالنظر في الكليات الخمس ثمرته وهي: الكلام في الحدود والرسوم نقولها من كتاب البرهان وحدقوا كتاب المقولات لأن نظر المنطقي فيه بالعرض لا بالذات وألحقوا في كتاب العبارة الكلام في العكس لأنه من توابع الكلام في القضايا ببعض الوجوه ثم تكلموا في القياس من حيث إنتاجه للمطالب على العموم لا بحسب المادة وحدقوا النظر فيه بحسب المادة وهي الكتب الخمسة: البرهان والجدول والخطابة والشعر والسفسطة وربما يلم بعضهم باليسير منها إلماما وأغفلوها كأن لم تكن وهي المهم المعتمد في الفن.
ثم تكلموا فيما وضعوه من ذلك كلاما مستبحرا نظروا فيه من حيث أنه فن برأسه لا من حيث أنه آلة للعلوم فطال الكلام فيه واتسع.
وأول من فعل ذلك الإمام فخر الدين بن الخطيب ومن بعده فضل الدين الخونجي وعلى كتبه معتمد المشارقة لهذا العهد وله في هذه الصناعة كتاب كشف الأسرار وهو طويل واختصر فيها مختصر الموجز وهو حسن في التعليم ثم مختصر المجمل في قدر أربعة أوراق أخذ بمجمامع الفن وأصوله فتداوله المتعلمون لهذا العهد فينتفعون به وهجرت كتب المتقدمين وطرقهم كأن لم تكن وهي ممتلئة من ثمرة المنطق وفائدته كما قلناه والله الهادي للصواب انتهى كلام ابن خلدون.
قال في مدينة العلوم:
وقد صح بشهادة أهل التواريخ والندماء أن أول من دون المنطق أرسطو وقد بذل ملك زمانــه في مقابلة ذلك خمسمائة ألف دينار وأدر عليه في كل سنة مائة وعشرين ألف دينار.
وقيل: أنه تنبه لوضعه وترتيبه من نظم كتاب إقليدس في الهندسة ثم إن أرسطو بعدما دون المنطق صارت كتبه مخزونة في أبنية ولاية موره من بلاد الروم عند ملك من ملوك اليونان ولما رغب الخليفة المأمون في علوم الأوائل أرسل إلى الملك المذكور وطلب الكتب فلم يرسل فغضب المأمون وجمع العساكر وبلغ الخبر إلى الملك فجمع البطاريق وشاورهم في الأمر فقالوا:
إن أردت الكسر في دين المسلمين وتزلزل عقائدهم فلا تمنعهم عن الكتب فاستحسن الملك فأرسلها إلى المأمون فجمع المأمون مترجمي مملكته كحنين بن إسحاق وثابت ابن قرة وغيرهما فترجموها بتراجم مختلفة بحيث لا يوافق ترجمة أحدهم ترجمة الآخر فبقيت التراجم غير محررة إلى أن التمس منصور بن نوح الساماني من أبي نصر الفارابي أن يحررها ويخصها ففعل كما أراد ولهذا لقب بالمعلم الثاني وكانت كتبه في خزانة الكتب المبنية بأصبهان المسماة بصوان الحكمة إلى زمان السلطان مسعود لكن كانت غير مبيضة لأن الفارابي كان غير ملتفت إلى جمع التصانيف ونشرها بل غلب عليه السياحة ثم إن الشيخ أبا علي تقرب عند السلطان مسعود بسبب الطب حتى استوزره واستولى على تلك الخزانة وأخذ ما في تلك الكتبولخص منها كتاب الشفا وغير ذلك من تصانيفه وقد اتفق إن احترقت تلك الكتب فاتهم أبو علي بأنه أحرقها لينقطع انتساب تلك العلوم عن أربابها ويختص بنفسه لكن هذا كلام الحساد الذين ليس لهم هاد.
واعلم أن الأوائل من الملوك كانوا يهتمون بجمع الكتب وخزانتها فحدثت في الإسلام خزائن ثلاث:
إحداها: بمدينة دار السلام ببغداد وكانت فيها من الكتب ما لا يحصى كثرة وقد ذهب الكل في وقعة تاتار ببغداد.
وثانيتها: خزانة الفاطميين بمصر وكانت من أعظم الخزائن وأكثرها جمعا للكتب النفيسة ولما انقضت دولتهم باستيلاء الملك صلاح الدين على مصر فاشترى القاضي الفاضل أكثر كتب هذه الخزانة ووقفها على مدرسته بمصر فبقيت فيها إلى أن استولت عليها الأيدي فلم يبق منها إلا القليل.
وثالثتها: خزانة بني أمية بالأندلس وكانت من أجل خزائن الكتب أيضا ولما انقرضت دولتهم باستيلاء ملوك الطوائف على الأندلس ذهب كلها.
أو من الكتب المبسوطة في المنطق: البحر الخضم ومنطق الشفاء لأبي علي بن سينا كتبه بلا مطالعة كتاب وكان يكتب كل يوم خمسين ورقة من حفظه وله كتاب النجاة والقانون والإشارات.
ومنها كتاب بيان الحق ومطالع الأنوار والمناهج كلها في المنطق والحكمة للأمور كان شافعيا وكتاب كشف الأسرار لمحمد بن عبد الملك الخونجي وهو صاحب الموجز في المنطق ومن الكتب اللطيفة التلويحات والمطارحات لأبي الفتوح يحيى بن حنش الملقب بشهاب الدين السهروردي الحكيم المقتول وقيل اسمه عمر.
ومنها: الملخص وشرح الإشارات للرازي والمعتبر لأبي البركات البغدادي اليهودي أولا في أكثر عمره والمهتد إلى الإسلام في آخر عمره أتى في المعتبر بأقسام الحكمة غير الرياضي وهو أحسن كتاب في هذا الشأن في هذا الــزمان استولت عليه آفات لو وضع واحد منها على رضوى لتخلخلت أصولها الرواسخ وتدكدكت رؤوسها الشوامخ وذلك أنه عمى وطرش وبرص وتجذم فنعوذ بالله من نقمة لا تطيقها الأبدان ومن زوال العافية وتقلب الإحسان
ولما أحس بالموت أوصى من يتولاه أن يكتب على قبره: هذا قبر أوحد الــزمان أبي البركات ذي العبر صاحب المعتبر فسبحان من لا يغلبه غالب ولا ينجو من قضائه متحيل ولا هارب نسأل الله في حياتنا العافية وفي مماتنا حسن العاقبة رب قد أحسنت فيما مضى فلك أن تحسن فيما بقي ولم يتحقق تاريخ وفاته إلا أنه كان في أوسط المائة السادسة.
ومنها جامع الدقائق للكاتبي وتنزيل الأفكار وحواشي ملخص الرازي له أيضا وإن أردت بلوغ الغاية في المنطق فعليك بتعديل الميزان وهو أحد أقسام تعديل العلوم لصدر الشريعة وقد كشف في هذا الكتاب عن غوامض طالما تحير فيها عقول الأقدمين وأبرز قواعد لم يهتد إليها أحد من الأوحدين ومع هذا فهو لعلوم الشريعة أبو عذرها وابن بجدتها وكتب المنطق أكثر من أن تحصى وأجل من أن تستقصي انتهى حاصله.
علم مواسم السنة
قال الأرنيقي: إن لكل أمة من الأمم ولكل طائفة من الأقوام مواسم وأعياد يعينون لكل منها شغلا مخصوصا فالعلم المذكور يعرف به أعياد كل قوم وإنها من السنة في أي يوم ويعرف شغل أهلها في ذلك ومن جملة ذلك يوم النيروز والمهرجان عند أهل الفارس وكان أهل القبط يأتي ملكهم في يوم النيروز ويرصدون من الليل فيقدمون رجلا حسن الاسم والوجه طيب الرائحة فيقف على الباب حتى يصبح فإذا أصبح دخل على الملك بغير أذن فيقف عنده.
فيقول له الملك: ما اسمك؟ ومن أين أنت أقبلت؟ وأين تريد؟ ولأي شيء وردت وما معك؟
فيقول: أنا المنصور واسمي المبارك ومن قبل الله أقبلت والملك السعيد أردت وبالهنا والسلامة وردت ومعي السنة الجديدة ثم يجلس ويدخل بعده رجل معه طبق من فضة وفيه حنطة وشعير وجلبان وذرة وحمص وسمسم وأرز من كل سبع سنابل وسبع حبات وقطعة سكر ودينار فيضع الطبق بين يدي الملك ثم يدخل عليه الهدايا ويبتدئ من الوزير ثم الناس على قدر مراتبهم ثم يقدم الملك برغيف كبير مصنوع من تلك الحبوب فيأكل منه ويطعم من حضره ثم يقول: هذا يوم جديد من شهر جديد من عام جديد من زمان جديد يحتاج أن يجدد فيه ما أخلقه الــزمان وأحق الناس بالفضل والإحسان الرأس لفضله على سائر الأعضاء ثم يخلع على وجوه دولته ويصلهم ويصرف عليهم ما حمل إليه من الهدايا.
وكان من عادة الفرس في عيدهم أن يدهن الملك بدهن البان تبركا ويلبس القصب والوشي ويضع على رأسه تاجا فيه صورة الشمس ويكون أول من يدخل عليها المؤبد بطبق عليه أترجة وقطعة سكر ونبق وسفرجل وتفاح وعناب وعنقود عنب أبيض وسبع باقات آس ثم يدخل الناس مثل الأول على طبقاتهم ومن عادتهم في يوم النيروز أنهم: يجمعون بين سبع أشياء أول أسمائهن سينات يأكلونها هي السكر والسفرجل السمسم والسحاق والسذاب والسقنقور وعادات الناس في الأعياد خارجة عن التعداد انتهى.
قلت: وقد ذكر الشيخ الإمام العلامة المقريزي في كتاب الخطط والآثار كثيرا من أعيادهم وبسط في بيان ذلك ولكن الشرع الشريف قد ورد بإبطال كل عيد للناس على اختلاف فرقهم وقبائلهم وعشائرهم إلا ما وردت به السنة المطهرة من الجمعة والعيدين والحجج وعليه عمل المسلمين إلى الآن.
ولشيخ الإسلام أحمد بن تيمية رضي الله عنه كتاب سماه اقتضاء الصراط المستقيم لمخالفة أصحاب الجحيم في رد أعياد الأقوام ونهي المسلمين عن اعتياد عادات هؤلاء الطعام وفي الحديث من تشبه بقوم فهو منهم والتشبه يشمل كل شبه يكون في الأعياد والأخلاق وهيأت اللبس والآكل والركوب والبناء والكلام وقد تساهل الناس المسلمون اليوم في التحرز عن التشبه إلى الغاية وشابهوا الكفار وأهل الكتاب في مراسمهم ومواسهم إلى النهاية إلا من عصمه الله وقليل ما هم وتأويل هذا الحديث يستدعي بسطا تاما وليس هذا موضع بيان المسائل والأحكام فعليك بالنظر في اقتضاء الصراط المستقيم يتضح لك الحق مما هو باطل في دين الإسلام وبالله التوفيق.

(TA.) b2: رَجِلَ, (M, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) [inf. n. رَجَلٌ, being similar to رَكِبَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. رَكَبٌ,] also signifies He (a man) was, or became, large in the رِجْل [i. e. leg, or foot]. (M, K: but omitted in some copies of the K.) b3: And رُجِلَ, like عُنِىَ; and رَجِلَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. [of the former] رِجْلَةٌ and [of the latter]

رِجْلٌ; [so in the CK; but accord. to the rule of the K they should be رَجْلَةٌ and رَجْلٌ, as neither is expressly said to be with kesr; or the latter may be correctly رِجْلٌ, as رَجِلَ is said to be like عَلِمَ, of which the inf. n. is عِلْمٌ;] He had a complaint of his رِجْل [i. e. leg, or foot]: (CK; but omitted in other copies: both mentioned in the TA:) the latter verb is mentioned in this sense by El-Fárisee, and also on the authority of Kr. (TA.) b4: And رَجِلَ مِنْ رِجْلِهِ He was, or became, affected in his leg, or foot, by something that he disliked. (TA.) b5: And رَجِلَ, aor. ـَ (K, TA,) inf. n. رَجَلٌ, (TA,) He (a beast, such as a horse or the like,) had a whiteness in one of his رِجْلَانِ [i. e. hind legs or feet], (K, TA,) without a whiteness in any other part. (TA.) A2: رَجِلَ, aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. رَجَلٌ, (Msb, TA,) is also said of hair, (Msb, K,) meaning It was, or became, [wavy, or somewhat curly, i. e.] of a quality between lankness and crispness or curliness, (K,) or neither very crisp or curly, nor very lank, but between these two. (Msb, TA.) A3: رَجَلَهُ, (CK, TA, omitted in some copies of the K,) [aor. ـُ as in similar verbs,] inf. n. رَجْلٌ, (TA,) He, or it, hit, or hurt, his رِجْلِ [i. e. leg, or foot]. (CK, TA.) b2: رَجَلَ الشَّاةَ, (S, K,) or, accord. to the O and the Mufradát, رَجَلَ الشَّاةَ بِرِجْلِهَا, (TA,) and ↓ ارتجلها, (K,) He suspended the sheep, or goat, by its hind leg or foot: (S, O, K:) or the meaning is عَقَلَهَا بِرِجْلَيْهِ [app. he confined its shank and arm together with his feet, by pressing his feet upon its folded fore legs while it was lying on the ground], (K,) or, as in the M, بِرجْلِهِ [with his foot]. (TA.) b3: رَجَلَتْ وَلَدَهَا, (K,) inf. n. رَجْلٌ; in the copies of the M written ↓ رَجَّلَتْ, with teshdeed; (TA;) She (a woman) brought forth her child preposterously, so that its legs came forth before its head. (K.) A4: رَجَلَهَا, namely, the mother of a young camel, (K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. رَجْلٌ, (TA,) He sent the young one with her [to suck her whenever he would; as is implied by what immediately precedes]; as also ↓ أَرْجَلَهَا: (K:) or الفَصِيلَ ↓ أَرْجَلْتُ (so in two copies of the S and in the O) I left the young camel with his mother to such her whenever he pleased: (S, * O: [in one of my copies of the S رَجَلْتُ, which appears from what here follows to be a mistake:]) so says ISk: and he cites as an ex., حَتَّى فُطِمَا ↓ مُسَرْهَدٌ أُرْجِلَ [Fat, and well nourished: he was left with his mother to such her when he pleased until he was weaned]. (O.) [See also رَجَلٌ, below; where it is explained as though a quasi-inf. n. of أَرْجَلْتُ in the sense here assigned to it in the S and O, or inf. n. of رَجَلْتُ in the same sense.] b2: And رَجَلَ

أُمَّهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. رَجْلٌ, (S,) He (a young camel, S, or a lamb, or kid, or calf, K, TA) sucked his mother. (S, K.) b3: رَجَلٌ also signifies The act of [the stallion's] leaping the mare: (O, K, TA:) [i. e., as inf. n. of رَجَلَ; for] one says, بَاتَ الحِصَانُ يُرْجُلُ الخَيْلَ The stallion-horse passed the night leaping the mares. (TA; and so in the O, except that الخيل is there omitted.) b4: And رَجَلَ المَرْأَةَ He compressed the woman. (TA.) A5: [Golius says that رَجُلَ signifies Vir et virili animo fuit; as on the authority of J; and that رُجْلَةٌ is its inf. n.: but it seems that he found الرُّجْلَةُ incorrectly explained in a copy of the S as مَصْدَرُ رَجُلَ instead of مَصْدَرُ الرَّجُلِ: ISd expressly says that رُجْلَةٌ and its syns. (explained below) are of the number of those inf. ns. that have no verbs.]2 رَجَّلَتْ وَلَدَهَا [app. a mistranscription]: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph.

A2: تَرْجِيلٌ [the inf. n.] signifies The making, or rendering, strong. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) A3: رجّل الشَّعَرَ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَرْجِيلٌ, (S, Msb, K,) He made the hair to be [wavy, or somewhat curly, i. e.] not very crisp or curly, nor lank, (S,) or in a state between that of lankness and that of crispness or curliness: (K:) or he combed the hair; (Msb, TA;) either his own hair, [see 5,] or that of another: (Msb:) or he combed down the hair; i. e., let it down, or made it to hang down, by means of the comb: (Mgh:) Er-Rághib says, as though he made it to descend at the رِجْل [or foot], i. e. from its places of growth; but this requires consideration: (MF:) or he combed and anointed the hair: (TA voce عَسِبٌ:) or he washed and combed the hair. (Ham p. 356.) 4 ارجلهُ He made him to go on foot; (S, K, TA;) to alight from his beast. (TA.) A2: and He granted him some delay, or respite; let him alone, or left him, for a while. (S, K.) b2: أَرْجَلْتُ الحِصَانَ فِى الخَيْلِ I sent-the stallion-horse among the mares. (TA.) b3: See also 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in three places.5 تَرَجَّلَ see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: ترجّل فِى البِئْرِ, (S, Msb, K,) and ترجّل البِئْرَ, (K,) He descended into the well (S, Msb, K) [by means of his feet, or legs, alone, i. e.,] without his being let down, or lowered, or suspended [by means of a rope]. (S, Msb.) b3: ترجّل الزَّنْدَ, and ↓ ارتجلهُ, [or, more probably, ارتجل الزَّنْدَةَ, and ترجّلها, (see مُرْتَجِلٌ,)] He put the زند [or the زندة; (the former meaning the upper, and the latter the lower, of the two pieces of wood used for producing fire,)] beneath his feet: (M, K:) or ↓ ارتجل signifies he (a man come from a distant country) struck fire, and held the زَنْد [here app. meaning (as in many other instances) the زند properly so called and the زندة] with his hands and his feet, [i. e. the زند with his hands and the زندة with his feet,] because he was alone. (TA. [See مُرْتَجِلٌ.]) A2: [ترجّل He became a رَجُل, or man; he rose to manhood. (See an explanation of ترجّل النَّهَارُ, in what follows.) And] ترجّلت She (a woman, TA) became like a رَجُل [or man] (K, TA) in some of her qualities, or states, or predicaments. (TA.) b2: ترجّل النَّهَارُ i. q. اِرْتَفَعَ (tropical:) [i. e. The day became advanced, the sun being somewhat high]; (S, IAth, O, K, TA;) it being likened to the rising of a man from youth; (IAth, TA;) and so النهار ↓ ارتجل: or, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former means the sun went down from [or below] the walls; as though it alighted (كَأَنَّهَا تَرَجَّلَتْ [in a proper sense of this verb: see 1, first sentence]). (TA.) A3: and ترجّل He combed his own hair: (Msb:) or he combed down his own hair; i. e., let it down, or made it to hang down, by means of the comb: (Mgh:) or he anointed [or washed] and combed his own hair. (TA. [See 2.]) Hence, نَهَى

عَنِ التَّرَجُّلِ إِلَّا غِبًّا (Mgh, TA) He [Mohammad] forbade the anointing and combing of one's own hair except it be less frequent than every day. (TA.) 8 ارتجل: see 1, first sentence. b2: Said of a horse, (in his running, TA,) He mixed the pace termed العَنَق with that termed الهَمْلَجَة, (T, TA,) or the former pace with somewhat of the latter, and thus, (S,) he went those two paces alternately, (S, K,) somewhat of the former and somewhat of the latter. (S.) A2: He took a man by his رِجْل [i. e. leg, or foot]. (S, TA.) b2: ارتجل الشَّاةَ: see 1, in the middle of the paragraph. b3: ارتجل الرَّنْدَ [or الزَّنْدَةَ], and ارتجل alone in a similar sense: see 5, in two places.

A3: [He extemporized a speech or verses; spoke it or them extemporaneously, impromptu, or without premeditation;] he began an oration (a خُطْبَة), and poetry, without his having prepared it beforehand; (S;) he spoke a speech (Msb, K) without consideration or thought, (Msb,) or without his having prepared it; (K;) he recited it, or related it, standing, without forecast, consideration, thought, or meditation; so accord. to Er-Rághib [who seems to have held this to be the primary signification of the verb when relating to a speech or the like]; or without reiteration, and without pausing, halting, or hesitating. (TA.) and ارتجل الشَّىْءَ [He did, performed, or produced, the thing without premeditation, or previous preparation]. (TA in art. خرع.) [And ارتجل اسْمًا He coined a name.] b2: ارتجل بِرَأْيِهِ He was, or became, alone, or independent of others, with none to take part or share or participate with him, in his opinion, (Msb, K, TA,) without consulting any one respecting it, (Msb, TA,) and kept constantly, or perseveringly, to it. (Msb.) [Hence,] أَمْرُكَ مَا ارْتَجَلْتَ Thine affair [to which thou shouldst keep] is that respecting which thou art alone [&c.] in thine opinion. (K.) and اِرْتَجِلْ مَا ارْتَجَلْتَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ is explained in the T as meaning اِرْكَبْ مَا رَكِبْتَ مِنْهُ [i. e. Undertake thou what thou hast undertaken of the affair: but it may rather signify keep thou to what thou hast undertaken of the affair; agreeably with what here follows]. (TA.) One says also, ↓ اِرْتَجِلْ رَجْلَكَ Keep thou to thine affair: (IAar, M, K, TA:) in [some of] the copies of the K, erroneously, رَجَلَكَ. (TA.) A4: He collected a detached number (قِطْعَة [or رِجْل]) of locusts, to roast, or fry, them. (S.) A5: He set up a مِرْجَل [q. v.], to cook food in it: (T, TA:) or he cooked food in a مِرْجَل. (K.) A6: ارتجل النَّهَارُ: see 5.10 استرجل He desired, or requested, to be, or to go, on foot. (KL.) رَجْلٌ: see رَجُلٌ: b2: and رَاجِلٌ; the latter in two places.

A2: See also رَجِلٌ, in two places.

A3: اِرْتَجِلْ رَجْلَكَ, in some of the copies of the K, erroneously, رَجَلَكَ: see 8, near the end of the paragraph.

رِجْلٌ [The leg of a human being and of a bird, and the kind leg of a quadruped; in each of these senses opposed to يَدٌ;] the part from the root of the thigh to the [sole of] the foot of a man [and of any animal]; (Mgh, Msb, K:) رِجْلُ الإِنْسَانِ meaning that [limb] with which the man walks: (Msb:) or the foot of a man [and of a bird, and the kind foot of a quadruped: or rather it signifies thus in many instances; but generally as before explained: and sometimes, by a synecdoche, it is used in a yet larger sense, as will be explained below]: (K:) of the fem. gender: (Zj, Msb, TA:) pl. أَرْجُلٌ: (S, Msb, K, &c.:) it has no other pl. (Msb, TA) known to Sb; (TA;) the pl. of pauc. being also used as a pl. of mult. in this instance. (IJ, TA.) [Hence,] الرِّجْلُ جُبَارٌ [The hind leg or foot, or it may here mean the leg or foot absolutely, is a thing of which no account, or for which no retaliation or mulct, is taken]: i. e., if a beast tread upon a man with its رِجْل, there is no retaliation or mulct, if in motion; but if the beast be standing still in the road, or way, the rider is responsible, whether it strike with a يَد or a رِجْل. (TA.) And هُوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رِجْلٍ [lit. He is standing upon a single leg; meaning] (assumed tropical:) he is setting about, or betaking himself to, an affair that presses severely, or heavily, upon him, or that straitens him. (T, K, TA. [In the CK, حَزَنَهُ is erroneously put for حَزَبَهُ.]) And أَنَا عَلَى رِجْلٍ (assumed tropical:) I am in fear, or fright, lest a thing should escape me. (TA.) b2: ذُو الرِّجْلِ [as though meaning The onelegged;] a certain idol, of El-Hijáz. (TA.) b3: رِجْلُ الجَبَّارِ (assumed tropical:) The very bright star [3, called by our astronomers “ Rigel,” and also called by the Arabs رِجْلُ الجَوْزَآءِ اليُسْرَى,] upon the left foot of Orion. (Kzw.) [And رِجْلُ الجَوْزَآءِ اليُمْنَى (assumed tropical:) The star k upon the right leg of Orion.] b4: رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ (assumed tropical:) A certain plant, (K,) called also رِجْلُ الرَّاغِ, the root, or lower part, of which, when cooked, is good for chronic diarrhœa; mentioned in art. غرب [q. v.]. (TA.) Also A certain mode of binding the udder of a camel, so that the young one cannot suck, therewith, nor will it undo: (S, K:) whence the phrase صَرَّ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ, for صَرَّ صَرًّا مِثْلَ صَرِّرِجْلِ الغُرَابِ. (TA.) El-Kumeyt says, صَرَّ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ مُلْكُكَ فِى النَّا سِ عَلَى مَنْ أَرَادَ فِيهِ الفُجُورَا (assumed tropical:) [Thy dominion among the people has bound with a bond not to be undone him who desires, within the scope of it, transgression]: (S, TA:) i. e. thy dominion has become firm so that it cannot be undone; like as what is termed رجل الغراب cannot be undone by the young camel. (TA.) And one says, صُرَّ عَلَيْهِ رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ, meaning (tropical:) The affair was, or became, difficult to him: (K and TA in art. غرب:) or his life, or subsistence, was, or became, difficult to him. (TA in that art.) b5: رِجْلُ الجَرَادِ (assumed tropical:) A certain plant, like البَقْلَةُ اليَمَانِيَّةُ [see art. بقل: accord. to Golius, the former appellation is applied to a species of atriplex, or orache]. (IAar, K.) b6: [And several other plants have similar appellations in the present day.] b7: رِجْلُ الطَّائِرِ (assumed tropical:) A certain مِيسَم [i. e. branding-instrument, or brand]. (S, K.) b8: رِجْلُ البَابِ (assumed tropical:) The foot, or heel, of the door, upon which it turns in a socket in the threshold. (MA.) b9: رِجْلُ القَوْسِ (assumed tropical:) The lower curved extremity of the bow; (Kh, S, K;) the upper curved extremity being called its يَد: (Kh, S:) or the part below its كَبِد [q. v.]: accord. to AHn, it is more complete, or perfect, than its يد: accord. to IAar, أَرْجُلُ القَوْسِ means, when the string is bound, or braced, the upper parts of the bow; and أَيْدِيهَا, its lower parts; and the former are stronger than the latter: and he cites the saying, لَيْتَ القِسىَّ كُلُّهَا مِنْ أَرْجُلِ [Would that the bows were all of them, or wholly, of what are termed أَرْجُل]: the two extremities of the bow, he says, are called its ظُفْرَانِ; and its two notches, its فُرْضَتَانِ; and its curved ends, its سِئَتَانش; and after the سئتان are the طَائِفَانِ; and after the طائفان, the أَبْهَرَانِ; and the portion between the ابهران is its كَبِد; this being between the two knots of the suspensory. (TA.) b10: رِجْلَا السَّهْمِ (assumed tropical:) The two extremities of the arrow. (K, * TA. [In the former it is implied that the phrase is رِجْلُ السَّهْمِ.]) b11: رِجْلُ بَحْرٍ (tropical:) A canal (خليج) of a بحر [or large river]. (Kr, K, TA.) b12: رِجْلٌ also signifies (tropical:) A part, or portion, of a thing: (K, TA:) of the fem. gender. (TA.) It is said in a trad. of 'Áïsheh, أَهْدَى لَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ رِجْلَ شَاةٍ مَشْوِيَّةٍ فَقَسَمْتُهَا إِلَّا كَتِفِهَا, meaning (tropical:) [Aboo-Bekr gave to us] the half of a roasted sheep, or goat, divided lengthwise [and I divided it into shares, except its shoulder-blade, or its shoulder]: she called the half thus by a synecdoche: (IAth, O, TA:) or she meant the leg (رجْل) thereof, with what was next to it [for مما يَلِيهَا in the O and TA, I read بِمَا يَلِيهَا] of the lateral half: or she thus alluded to the whole thereof, like as one does by the term رَأْس. (O, TA. [But see what here next follows.]) And in another trad., the رِجْل of a [wild] ass is mentioned as a gift, meaning (tropical:) One of the two lateral halves: or, as some say, the thigh: (TA:) and it is explained as meaning the whole; but this is a mistake. (Mgh.) b13: Also (assumed tropical:) The half of a رَاوِيَة [or pair of leathern bags, such as are borne by a camel, one on each side,] of wine, and of olive-oil. (AHn, K.) b14: It is also applied by some to (assumed tropical:) A pair of trousers or drawers; and رِجْلُ سَرَاوِيلَ occurs in this sense in a trad., for رِجْلَا سَرَاوِيلَ; like زَوْجُ خُفٍّ and زَوْجُ نَعْلٍ, whereas each is properly زَوْجَانِ; for the سراويل are of the articles of clothing for the two legs: (IAth, TA:) this is what is meant by the saying in the K [and in the O likewise] that الرِّجْلُ also signifies السَّرَاوِيلُ [app. for مِنَ السَّرَاوِيلِ الطَّاقُ]. (TA.) b15: Also (assumed tropical:) A swarm, or numerous assemblage, of locusts: (S:) or a detached number (قِطْعَةٌ) thereof: (K:) [or] one says [or says also] رِجْلُ جَرَادٍ, (S, TA,) and رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ: it is masc. and fem.: (TA:) a pl. without a proper sing.; like عَانَةٌ (a herd of [wild] asses, S) and خِيطٌ (a flock of ostriches, S) and صُِوَارٌ (a herd of [wild] bulls or cows, S): (S, K:) pl. أَرْجَالٌ; (K:) and so in the next two senses here following. (TA.) b16: And hence, as being likened thereto, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) An army: (K:) or a numerous army. (TA.) b17: Also (assumed tropical:) A share in a thing. (IAar, K.) So in the saying, لِى فِى

مَالِكَ رِجْلٌ (assumed tropical:) [To me belongs a share in thy property]. (TA.) b18: And (tropical:) A time. (TA.) One says, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلِى رِجْلِ فُلَانٍ (tropical:) That was in the time of such a one; (S, K, TA;) in his life-time: (K, TA:) like the phrase على رَأْسِ فُلَانٍ. (TA.) b19: Also (assumed tropical:) Precedence. (Abu-l- Mekárim, K.) When the files of camels are collected together, an owner, or attendant, of camels says, لِىَ الرِّجْلُ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) [The precedence belongs to me; or] I precede: and another says, لَا بَلِ الرِّجْلُ لِى (assumed tropical:) [Nay, but the precedence belongs to me]: and they contend together for it, each unwilling to yield it to the other: (Abu-l-Mekárim, TA:) pl. أَرْجَالٌ: (K:) and so in the senses here following. (TA.) b20: And (assumed tropical:) Distress; straitness of the means of subsistence or of the conveniences of life; a state of pressing want; misfortune; or calamity; and poverty. (O, K.) A2: Also A man who sleeps much: (O, K:) fem. with ة. (TA.) b2: And A man such as is termed قَاذُورَةٌ [which means foul in language; evil in disposition: one who cares not what he does or says: very jealous: one who does not mix, or associate as a friend, with others, because of the evilness of his disposition, nor alight with them: &c.: see art. قذر]. (O, K.) A3: Also Blank paper; (O, K, * TA;) without writing. (TA.) رَجَلٌ: see رَاجِلُ, first sentence: A2: and see also رَجِلٌ, in two places.

A3: [It is also explained as here follows, as though a quasi-inf. n. of 4 in a sense mentioned in the first paragraph on the authority of the S and O, or inf. n. of رَجَلَ in the same sense; thus:] The sending, (S, O,) or leaving, (K, TA,) a lamb or kid or calf, (S, O, TA,) or a young camel, (K, TA,) and a colt, (TA,) with its mother, to such her whenever it pleases: (S, O, K:) [but I rather think that this is a loose explanation of the meaning implied by رَجَلٌ used as an epithet; for it is added in the S and O immediately, and in the K shortly after, that] one says بَهْمَةٌ رَجَلٌ (S, O, K) and ↓ رَجِلٌ (K) [meaning, as indicated in the S and O, A lamb, or hid, or calf, sent with its mother to such her whenever it pleases, or, as indicated in the K, sucking, or that sucks, its mother]: pl. أَرْجَالٌ. (S, O, K.) b2: Also A horse [i. e. a stallion] sent upon the خَيْل [meaning mares, to leap them]: (K:) and in like manner one says خَيْلٌ رَجَلٌ, [using it as a pl., app. meaning horses so sent,] (K accord. to the TA,) or ↓ خَيْلٌ رَجِلَةٌ. (CK, and so in my MS. copy of the K: [perhaps it should be رَجَلَةٌ.]) رَجُلٌ (S, O, Mgh, Msb, K &c.) and ↓ رَجْلٌ, (O, K,) the latter a dial. var., (O,) or, accord. to Sb and El-Fárisee, a quasi-pl. n., [but app. of رَاجِلٌ, not of رَجُلٌ,] called by Abu-l-Hasan a pl., (TA,) A man, as meaning the male of the human species; (Msb;) the opposite of اِمْرَأَةٌ: (S, O, Mgh:) applied only to one who has attained to puberty and manhood: (K, * TA:) or as soon as he is born, (K, TA,) and afterwards also: (TA:) pl. رِجَالٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.,) [applied in the Kur lxxii. 6 to men and to jinn (or genii), like نَاسٌ and أُنَاسٌ, and likewise a pl. of رَاجِلٌ, and of its syn. رَجْلَانُ,] and رجَالَاتٌ, (S, K,) said by some to be a pl. pl., (TA,) and ↓ رَجْلَةٌ, (Sb, Msb, K, TA, in the CK رِجْلَةٌ, [which is a mistake, as is shown by what follows,]) of the measure فَعْلَةٌ, with fet-h to the ف, (Msb,) [but this is, properly speaking, a quasi-pl. n.,] said to be the only instance of its kind except كَمْأَةٌ, which, however, some say is a n. un. like others of the same form belonging to [coll.] gen. ns., (Msb,) used as a pl. of pauc. instead of أَرْجَالٌ, (Sb, Ibn-Es-Serráj, Msb, TA,) because they assigned to رَجُلٌ no pl. of pauc., (Sb, TA,) not saying أَرْجَالٌ (TA) [nor رِجْلَةٌ], and ↓ رَجِلَةٌ, mentioned by Az as another pl., but this [also] is a quasi-pl. n., and of it Abu-l-' Abbás holds ↓ رَجْلَةٌ to be a contraction, (TA,) and رِجَلَةٌ (Ks, K) and أَرَاجِلُ (Ks, S, K) and [another quasi-pl. n. is] ↓ مَرْجَلٌ. (IJ, K.) شَهِيدَيْنِ مِنْ رِجَالِكُمْ, in the Kur [ii. 282], means [Two witnesses] of the people of your religion. (TA.) [رَجُلٌ also signifies A woman's husband: and the dual] رَجُلَانِ [sometimes] means A man and his wife; predominance being thus attributed to the former. (IAar, TA.) And ↓ رَجُلَةٌ signifies A woman: (S, K:) or, accord. to Er-Rághib, a woman who is, or affects to be, or makes herself, like a man in some of her qualities, or states, or predicaments. (TA.)

[See also مَرْجَلَانِيَّةٌ.]) The dim. of رَجُلٌ is ↓ رُجَيْلٌ and ↓ رُوَيْجِلٌ: (S, K:) the former reg.: (TA:) the latter irreg., as though it were dim. of رَاجِلٌ: (S, TA:) [but it seems that رُوَيْجِلٌ is properly the dim. of رَاجِلٌ, though used as that of رَجُلٌ.] One says, هُوَ رَجُلُ وَحْدِهِ [He is a man unequalled, or that has no second], (IAar, L in art. وحد,) and وَحْدِهِ ↓ رُجَيْلُ [A little man (probably meaning the contrary) unequalled, &c.]. (S and L in that art.) and it is said in a trad., إِنْ صَدَقَ ↓ أَفْلَحَ الرُّوَيْجِلُ [The little man prospers if he speak truth] (TA.) b2: Also One much given to coition: (Az, O, K:) used in this sense by the Arabs of ElYemen: and some of the Arabs term such a one عُصْفُورِىٌّ. (O, TA.) b3: And i. q. رَاجِلٌ, q. v. (Mgh, Msb, K.) b4: And Perfect, or complete [in respect of bodily vigour or the like]: ('Eyn, O, K, TA: [in the CK, والرّاجِلُ الكَامِلُ is erroneously put for والراَجل والكامل:]) or strong and perfect or complete: sometimes it has this meaning, as an epithet: and when thus used, Sb allows its being in the gen. case in the phrase, مَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ رَجُلٍ أَبُوهُ [I passed by a man whose father is strong &c.]; though the nom. case is more common: he says, also, that when you say, هُوَ الرَّجُلُ, you may mean that he is perfect or complete, or you may mean any man that speaks and that walks upon two legs. (M, TA.) A2: [In the CK, شَعَرٌ رَجُلٌ is erroneously put for شَعَرٌ رَجْلٌ: and, in the same, رَجُلُ الشَّعَرِ, as syn. with رَجِلُ الشَّعَرِ, is app. a mistake for رَجْلُ الشَّعَرِ; but it is mentioned in this sense by 'Iyád:] see the paragraph here following.

&c., agreeably with the passage in the M, in which the order of the two clauses is the reverse of their order in the K.]) One says, حَمَلَكَ اللّٰهُ عَنِ الرُّجْلَةِ and مِنَ الرُّجْلَةِ, i. e. [May God give thee a beast to ride upon, and so relieve thee from going on foot, or] from the act of the man who has no beast. (T, TA.) And هُوَ ذُو رُجْلَةٍ He has strength to walk, or go on foot.
