1 مَا سَكِفْتُ البَابَ, (Ibn-'Abbád, K, TA,) and بَابَهُ, (TA in art, عتب,) aor. ـَ (K,) I did not tread, or have not trodden, upon the threshold of the door, (Ibn-'Abbád, K, TA,) and of his door; (TA;) as also ↓ ما تَسَكَّفْتُهُ: (K:) and لَهُ بَابًا ↓ لَا أَتَسَكَّفُ [I will not tread upon the threshold of a door of his; or] I will not enter a house, or chamber, of his. (Z, TA.) 4 اسكف, (inf. n. إِسْكَافٌ, Msb,) He was, or became, an إِسْكَاف [q. v. infrà]. (IAar, T, Msb, K.) 5 تَسَكَّفَ see 1, in two places.

سِكَافَةٌ The craft, or handicraft, of the إِسْكَاف [q. v.]: (K:) termed by Lth an inf. n., the source of الإِسْكَافُ, having no [unaugmented] verb. (TA.) سَكَّافٌ: see إِسْكَافٌ.

سَاكِفٌ The lintel of a door, in which turns the صَائِر, (O, K, TA,) this latter word meaning [the upper and] the lower extremity of the door, the upper of which turns [in a socket in the lintel, and the lower in a socket in the threshold]: so says En-Nadr. (O, TA. [The explanation of صَائِرٌ in the O seems to have been mutilated by a copyist, and requires the additions which I have made, according to modern usage.]) سَيْكَفٌ: see إِسْكَافٌ.

أَسْكَفٌ: see إِسْكَافٌ, in two places.

أُسْكُفُّ العَيْنَيْنِ The parts on which grow the eyelashes of the two eyes: (IAar, K:) or the lower eyelids. (Z, K.) أُسْكُفَّةٌ The threshold of a door, (S, O, K,) upon which one treads; (O, K;) as also ↓ أُسْكُوفَةٌ: (TA:) or the lintel of a door: and sometimes [or rather almost universally] used in the former sense, which is the only meaning mentioned in the T [and] in the Abridgment of the 'Eyn [and in most other lexicons]: pl, اسكاف [app. أَسْكَافٌ, and, if so, anomalous]. (Msb.) A2: Also The خرقة [i. e. خِرْقَة, or rag, or ragged garment, or perhaps it is a mistranscription for حِرْفَة, i. e. craft, or handicraft, like سِكَافَةٌ,] of the إِسْكَاف: extr.: on the authority of Fr. (TA.) إِسْكَافٌ (Sh, S, M, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ أُسْكُوفٌ (Sh, S, M, K) and ↓ أَسْكَفٌ and ↓ سَكَّافٌ and ↓ سَيْكَفٌ (K) A maker of boots, (Sh, Msb, K,) or of shoes or sandals; (MA;) or a sewer of boots &c.: (Msb;) or the first word, (Msb, K, TA,) as used by the Arabs [of the desert], (Msb, TA,) any artificer, or artisan, (Msb, K, TA,) thus expl. in the M, and so its three [perhaps a mistake for four] dial. vars., but said by J [in the S] to be a meaning not known, (TA,) except the maker of boots, for he is called ↓ أَسْكَفٌ, (K, TA,) i. e. when they mean such as is called إِسْكَافٌ in the cities or towns or villages: (TA:) or a carpenter; (K;) in which sense it is used by Esh-Shemmákh, but J says, [in the S,] only on the ground of supposition; (TA;) and any handicraftsman who works with an iron tool: (AA, K, * TA:) pl. أَــسَاكِفَــةٌ (S, Msb, TA) [and أَسَاكِيفُ]. b2: Also the first word, Skilful with an affair. (O, K.) Sh says, I heard El-Fak'asee say, إِنَّكَ لإِسْكَافٌ بِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ, meaning Verily thou art skilful with this affair. (O.) A2: Accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, الإِسْكَافُ is also used (O, K) by Ibn-Mukbil (O) as meaning The redness of wine: but this is a mistranscription, (O, K,) and a perversion of the meaning: (O:) the right word is الإِسْكَاب. (O, K.) أَسْكُوفٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

أُسْكُوفَةٌ: see أُسْكُفَّةٌ.

صير

1 صَارَ كَذَا, (T, S, Msb,) aor. ـِ (S,) inf. n. صَيْرُورَةٌ (S, Msb) and صَيْرٌ, (S,) He, or it, attained to the state, or condition, of such a thing; (T;) became such a thing; (T, Msb;) in which sense the verb is like كَانَ [in meaning, when the latter is non-attributive, and in having its subject in the nom. case and its predicate in the accus.]. (T.) You say, صَارَ زَيْدٌ رَجُلًا Zeyd became a man; or attained to the state, or condition, of a man. (TA.) And صَارَ زَيْدٌ غَنِيًّا Zeyd became rich, not having been so. (Msb.) And صَارَ العَصِيرُ خَمْرًا The expressed juice became wine. (Msb.) [and صَارَ لَا شَىْءَ عِنْدَهُ He became in a state, or condition, in which there was not anything in his possession. And صَارَ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا He became in the state, or condition, of doing such a thing; i. e. he became occupied, or engaged, in doing such a thing; or he set about, began, commenced, took to, or betook himself to, doing such a thing; like جَعَلَ. And صَارَ لَا يَفْعَلُ شَيْئًا He became in the state, or condition, of not doing anything; or he became unoccupied in doing anything. and صَارَ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ He became in the state of not speaking; he became speechless. And صَارَ يَتَفَكَّرُ فِى كَذَا He became in a state of reflection upon such a thing; he began to reflect upon such a thing.] b2: One says also, صَارَ الأَمْرُ إِلَى كَذَا, (M, A, Msb, K,) aor. as above, (TA,) inf. n. مَصِيرٌ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) which is anomalous, being regularly مَصَارٌ, like مَعَاشٌ, (S,) and صَيْرٌ and صَيْرُورَةٌ, (M, A, K,) i. e. رَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ: (Msb:) [but this is a loose explanation; the meaning being, The thing, or affair, or case, came eventually (see صِيرٌ) to such a state, or condition:] the difference between مَصِيرٌ and مَرْجِعٌ is, that the former word necessarily implies a difference [of the latter state or condition] from the former state or condition; but the latter word does not. (Bd in iii. 156.) [In this case, the ulterior state or condition is likened to a place: for] b3: صَارَ also signifies He, or it, attained in respect of place: so in the saying, صَارَ زَيْدٌ إِلَى عَمْرٍو [Zeyd came, or went, or pursued a course that brought him, to 'Amr]. (TA.) صِرْتُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ [I came, &c., to such a one] is similar to the phrase in the Kur [iii. 27]

وَإِلَى اللّٰهِ الْمَصِيرُ [And to God, as the ultimate object, is the transition, or course, of every human being]. (S.) [Hence, أًلَا إِلَى اللّٰهِ تَصِيرُ الْأُمُورُ, in the Kur xlii. last verse, which Bd explains by adding the words بِارْتِفَاعِ الوَسَائِطِ وَالتَّعَلُّقَاتِ; the meaning being, Verily to God are things, or events, referrible, mediately and dependently: in the Expos. of the Jel expl. as meaning تَرْجِعُ.] b4: [And in like manner one says, صَارَ لَهُ كَذَا Such a thing came to, betided, or befell, him, or it: and hence, he, or it, came to have, or became possessed of, such a thing.] b5: And صَارَ فِى أَرْضِ فَلَاةٍ [He became, or came to be, meaning he found himself, in a desert, or waterless, land]; i. q. وَقَعَ فِيهَا. (Msb in art. وقع.) And صَارَ فِى الرَّبِيعِ [He entered, lit. became in, the season called ربيع]; i. q. أَرْبَعَ [which is expl. in the S as signifying دَخَلَ فِى الرَّبِيعِ]. (K in art. ربع.) A2: صَيْرٌ signifies also The returning of seekers after herbage to the watering-places. (O, K.) And one says, صَارَ الرَّجُلُ, aor. ـِ [inf. n. صَيْرٌ,] The man stayed, or abode, at the water. (TA.) and صَارَ النَّاسُ المَآءَ The people stayed, or abode, at the water. (M, K, TA.) A3: صَارَهُ, (S,) first Pers\. صِرْتُهُ, (M,) aor. as above, (S,) inf. n. صَيْرٌ, (K,) a dial. var. of صَارَهُ having for its aor. ـُ [q. v.,] (S,) He cut it; (S, M, K;) and clave it, or split it. (M.) b2: And in like manner, [i. e. as a dial. var. of صَارَهُ having for its aor. ـُ He made it to incline, or lean. (S.) You say, صَارَ وَجْهَهُ, aor. ـِ (M,) as also يَصُورُ, (M and K in art. صور,) He turned his face towards a person or thing. (M.) And صِرْتُ عُنُقَهُ I twisted his neck. (M.) [Respecting the phrase فَصِرْهُنَّ إِلَيْكَ in the Kur ii.

262, accord. to one reading, see 1 in art. صور.] b3: صَارَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. صَيْرٌ, signifies also حَبَسَهُ [He confined, restricted, &c., him, or it]. (Msb.) 2 صيّرهُ كَذَا He made him, or it, to be in such a state, or condition; or he made him, or it, to be such a thing; [as also ↓ أَصَارَهُ;] syn. جَعَلَهُ. (S.) You say, صَيَّرَنِى لَهُ عَبْدًا and ↓ أًصَارَنِى [He made me to be to him a slave]. (A.) b2: [And صَيَّرَهُ إِلَى

كَذَا and ↓ أَصَارَهُ He, or it, made, or caused, him, or it, to come, or to pursue a course that led, to such a state, or condition; brought, or reduced, him, or it, thereto.] 'Omeyleh El-Fezáree said to his paternal uncle Ibn-'Ankà, ↓ مَا الَّذِى أَصَارَكَ

إِلَى مَا أَرَى يَا عَمِّ [What hath made thee to come, or brought thee, or reduced thee, to the state, or condition, that I see, O my paternal uncle?]. (M.) [In this case, the ulterior state or condition is likened to a place: for] you say, صَيَّرَهُ إِلَيْهِ and ↓ أَصَارَهُ [meaning He, or it, made him to come, or brought him, to him, or it; i. e., to a person, or place, or to a state, or condition:] (M, K:) and صَيَّرَتْنِى إِلَيْهِ الحَاجَةُ and ↓ أَصَارَتْنِى [Want, or need, or necessity, made me to come, or brought me, to him, or it]. (A.) And [hence,] صَيَّرَ إِلَيْهِ الأَمْرَ He committed to him the thing, or affair; syn. فَوَّضَهُ اليه. (M in art. فوض.) [And صَيَّرَ لَهُ كَذَا He made such a thing to come to, betide, or befall, him, or it: and consequently, he made him, or it, to have, or become possessed of, such a thing.] b3: تَصْيِيرٌ is also by word, or covenant, as well as by deed. (Bd in ii. 20.) [You say, صَيَّرَهُ كَذَا meaning He asserted, or pronounced, him, or it, to be in such a state, or condition; or to be such a thing: in which case, also, it is syn. with جَعَلَهُ, whereby it is expl. in the S. And صَيَّرَ لَهُ كَذَا He asserted, or pronounced, such a thing to belong to him, or it; asserted, or pronounced, him, or it, to have such a thing; attributed to him, or it, such a thing: and appointed or assigned, to him, or it, such a thing.]4 أَصْيَرَ see 2, in six places.5 تصيّر أَبَاهُ He became like his father.
