ـسَبَــهُ, (
S,
A,
Mgh, &c.,)
aor. ـُ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb, &c.,)
inf. n. حَـ
ـسْبٌ (
S,
A,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and حُـ
ـسْبَــانٌ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and حِـ
ـسْبَــانٌ (
K) and حِسَابٌ (
S,
K,) which is generally an
inf. n. of this verb, but sometimes of حَا
سَبَ, (
TA,) and حِسَابَةٌ (
S,
K) and حِـ
ـسْبَــةٌ, (
Msb,
K,) or this is like قِعْدَةٌ and رِكْبَةٌ, [denoting a mode, or manner,] as in a verse of En-Nábighah cited below, (
S,) and حَـ
ـسْبَــةٌ, which is of rare occurrence, (
MF,
TA,) He numbered, counted, reckoned, calculated, or computed, it; (
S,
A,
Mgh,
Msb,
K;) namely, property [&c.]. (
A,
Mgh,
Msb.) Yousay, مَنْ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى عَدِّ الرَّمْلِ وَحَـ
ـسْبِ الحَصَى
[Who can count the sands, and number the pebbles?]. (
A.) And أَلْقِ هٰذَا فِى الحَـ
ـسْبِ [Throw thou this into the reckoning]; i. e., into what thou hast reckoned. (
A.) وَالشَّمْسُ وَالقَمَرُ بِحُـ
ـسْبَــانٍ, in the
Kur [lv. 4], means And the sun and the moon [run their courses] according to a [certain] reckoning; or through a series of mansions [or constellations], the bounds of which they do not transgress: (
TA:) or بحـ
ـسبــان alludes to the numbers of the months and years and all other times: [but properly speaking,] حـ
ـسبــان is here an
inf. n.: (
Zj,
TA:) or,
accord. to
Akh, a
pl. of حِسَابٌ; (
S,
TA;) and so says
AHeyth: or,
accord. to some, it is here a proper
subst., signifying the firmament. (
TA.) حُـ
ـسْبَــانًا in the
Kur vi. 96 is held by
Akh to be for بِحُـ
ـسْبَــانٍ, meaning بِحِسَابٍ [as in the phrase quoted above, from the
Kur lv. 4,
accord. to the first explanation]. (
TA.) and حُـ
ـسْبَــانُكَ عَلَى اللّٰه signifies حِسَابُكَ على اللّٰه [On God be it to reckon with thee: see also حَسِيبُكَ اللّٰهُ]. (
TA.)
Az says that the reckoning in buying and selling is termed حِسَابٌ because one knows thereby what is sufficient. (
TA.) وَاللّٰهُ سَرِيعُ الحِسَابِ, in the
Kur [ii. 198, &c., God is quick in reckoning], signifies that his reckoning is necessary, or of necessity, and that his reckoning with one person does not divert Him from reckoning with another. (
TA.) And يَرْزُقُ مَنْ يَشَآءُ بَغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ, in the
Kur [ii. 208, &c., He supplieth whom He willeth, without reckoning], means without sparing, or scanting; as when a man expends without reckoning: but the phrase is variously explained, as meaning without appointing for any one what is deficient: or without fearing that any one will call Him to account for it: or without the receiver's thinking that He will bestow upon him, or without his reckoning upon the supply; so that it may be from حَـ
ـسِبَ“ he thought,” or from حَـ
ـسَبَ “ he reckoned. ” (
L,
TA.) The saying, cited by
IAar, يَا جُمْلُ أَسْقَاكِ بِلَا حِسَابَهْ as related by
J [in the
S], but correctly أُسْقيت, (
TA,) means [O Juml, mayest thou be given rain] without reckoning, and without measure. (
S.) An instance of حِـ
ـسْبَــةٌ as similar to قِعْدَةٌ and رِكْبَةٌ occurs in the saying of En-Nábighah, فَكَمَّلَتْ مِائَةً فِيهَا حَمَامَتُهَا وَأَسْرَعَتْ حـ
ـسْبَــةً فِى ذٰلِكَ العَدَدٍ
[And she completed a hundred, in which was her pigeon; and she was quick in the mode of computing that number]. (
S.)
A2: حَـ
ـسِبَــهُ كَذَا, [a verb of the kind termed أَفْعَالُ القُلُوبِ, having two objective complements, the former of which is called its noun, and the latter its
enunciative,]
aor. ـَ and حَـ
ـسِبَ; (
S,
Msb,
K;) the former the more approved, (
TA,) of the dialects of all the Arabs except Benoo-Kináneh; the latter
aor. being peculiar to the
dial. of this tribe, (
Msb,) and
contr. to
analogy, (
S,
Msb,) for by rule it should be حَـ
ـسَبَ [only]; and حَـ
ـسِبَ is the only verb of the measure فَعِلَ having both يَفْعَلُ and يَفْعِلُ as the measures of its
aor. except نَعِمَ and يَئِسَ and يَبِسَ [and وَعِرَ and وَحِرَ and بَئِسَ and وَلِهَ and وَهِلَ mentioned by Ibn-
Málik (with the preceding) cited in the
TA voce وَرِثَ]; but eight verbs having an unsound letter for the first radical have kesreh to the medial radical in the
pret. and
aor. , viz., وَثِقَ and وَرِثَ and وَرِعَ and وَرِمَ and وَرِيَ and وَفِقَ and وَلِىَ and وَمِقَ; (
S;)
inf. n. حِـ
ـسْبَــانٌ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and مَحْـ
ـسَبَــةٌ and مَحْـ
ـسِبَــةٌ (
S,
K) and حِسَابٌ; (
TA; [but see what follows;]) He [counted, accounted, reckoned, or esteemed, meaning] thought, or supposed, him, or it, to be so. (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K.) You say, حَـ
ـسِبْــتُهُ صَالِحًا [I counted him, or thought him, good, or righteous]. (
S.) And حَـ
ـسِبْــتُ زَيْدًا قَائِمًا [I thought Zeyd to be standing]. (
Msb.) And مَا كَانَ فِى حِـ
ـسْبَــانِى
كَذَا [Such a thing was not in my thought]: you should not say فى حِسَابِى, (
K,) unless you mean thereby it was not included in my reckoning, or, by amplification of the sense, I did not think it. (
MF.)
A3: حَـ
ـسُبَ,
aor. ـُ (
S,
Msb,
K,)
inf. n. حَسَابَةٌ (
S,
K) and حَـ
ـسَبٌ, (
Msb,
K,) He was, or became, characterized, or distinguished, by what is termed حَـ
ـسَبٌ as explained below [i. e. grounds of pretension to respect or honour; &c.]. (
S,
Msb,
K.) 2 حـ
ـسّبــهُ,
inf. n. تَحْسِيبٌ: see 4.
b2: Also He placed a pillow for him; supported him with a pillow; (
S,
K;) seated him upon a حُـ
ـسْبَــانَة, or مَحْـ
ـسَبَــة. (
TA.)
b3: And hence, He honoured him. (
L.)
b4: He buried him: (
TA:) or buried him in stones: [see حَـ
ـسْبٌ:] or buried him wrapped in grave-clothing: namely, a dead person. (
K,
TA.)
b5: Nuheyk El-Fezáree says, (
S,
TA,) addressing 'Ámir Ibn-Et-Tufeyl, (
TA,) لَتَقَيْتَ بِالوَجْعَآءِ طَعْنَةَ مُرْهَفٍ
↓ حَرَّانَ أَوْ لَثَوَيْتَ غَيْرَ مُحَـ
ـسَّبِ (
S,
TA) Thou wouldst have avoided, by turning thy hinder part, the thrust [of a thin, thirsty weapon], or thou wouldst have taken thy restingplace (
TA) not honoured, or not shrouded, (
S,
TA,) or not pillowed: غير محـ
ـسّب being variously rendered: one person prefers the meaning not buried:
Az says that the signification of burial in stones and that of wrapping in grave-clothes, assigned to the verb, were unknown to him; and that غير محـ
ـسّب signifies not supported with a pillow. (
TA.) 3 حا
سبــهُ,
inf. n. مُحَا
سَبَــةٌ (
S,
TA) and sometimes حِسَابٌ, which is also an
inf. n. of حَـ
ـسَبَ, or,
accord. to
Th, it seems to be a quasi-
inf. n., (
TA,) [He reckoned with him.] And حا
سبــهُ عَلَيْهِ [He called him to account for it]. (
TA.) 4 احـ
ـسبــهُ, (
Th,
S,
K,)
inf. n. إِحْسَابٌ, (
TA,) He gave him what sufficed, or satisfied, him, مِنْ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ of everything: (
Th,
TA:) he contented him: (
K:) or he gave him what contented him; as also ↓ حـ
ـسّبــهُ: (
S:) and both verbs,
inf. n. of the latter تَحْسِيبٌ, he gave him to eat and drink until he was satisfied: (
K:) and the former, [or both,] he gave him until he said حَـ
ـسْبِــى [It is sufficient for me]. (
Az,
S.) You say also, أَعْطَى
فَأَحْـ
ـسَبَ He gave, and (assumed
tropical:) gave much: (
S:) and ↓ اِحْتَـ
ـسَبْــتُهُ, [if not a mistranscription for أَحْـ
ـسَبْــتُهُ,] (
tropical:) I gave him much. (
A,
TA.)
b2: Also It (a thing,
S,
Msb,) sufficed him: (
S,
A,
Msb:) he sufficed him. (
TA.) You say, مَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ أَحْـ
ـسَبَــكَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ, and [مِنْ رَجُلَيْنِ] بِرَجُلَيْنِ أَحْـ
ـسَبَــاكَ, and [مِنْ رِجَالٍ] بِرِجَالٍ أَحْـ
ـسَبُــوكَ, I passed by a man sufficient for thee as a man, i. e., supplying to thee the place of any other [by his excellent qualities], and by two men &c., and by men &c. (
S.) [The verb here is rendered, in grammatical analysis, by its
act. part. n. See also حَـ
ـسْبُ.]
5 تحـ
ـسَب (
tropical:) He sought, or sought leisurely and repeatedly, to learn news: (
A,
K, *
TA:) he sought after news: (
K, *
TA:) he inquired, or asked, respecting news; (
S,
K, *
TA; [in the
CK, اسْتَخْيَرَ is erroneously put for اِسْتَخْبَرَ;]) of the
dial. of El-Hijáz: (
TA:) he searched after news as a spy. (A 'Obeyd,
TA.) It is said in a
trad.,
accord. to one reading, كَانُوا يَجْتَمِعُونَ فَيَتَحَـ
ـسَّبُــونَ الصَّلَاةَ (
tropical:) They used to assemble, and endeavour to ascertain the time of prayer: but the common reading is يَتَحَيَّنُونَ. (
TA.)
A2: Also He reclined upon a pillow. (
K.) 8 احتـ
ـسب [for احتـ
ـسب أَجْرًا He reckoned upon a reward: or] he sought a reward [from God in the world to come]. (
TA.) وَيَرْزُقُهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَـ
ـسِبُ, in the
Kur lxv. 2, means [And He will supply him with the means of subsistence] whence he does not reckon, or expect; whence does not occur to his mind. (
Bd,

trad., Whoso fasteth during Ramadán, believing in God and his Apostle, and [reckoning upon a reward, or] seeking a reward from God. (

ـسب بِكَذَا أَجْرًا عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ (
S,
K) He reckoned upon obtaining, [or he sought,] by such a thing, or such an action, a reward from God: (
PS:) or he prepared, or provided, such a thing, seeking thereby a reward from God. (
K.) and احتـ
ـسب عِنْدَ اللّٰهِ خَيْرًا He prepared, or provided, in store for himself, good, [i. e. a reward,] with God. (
A,
Mgh.) And احتـ
ـسب الأَجْرَ عَلَى اللّٰهِ He laid up for himself, in store, the reward, with God, not hoping for the reward of the present life; اِحْتِسَابُ الأَجْرِ relating only to an action done for the sake of God. (
Msb.) [Hence,] احتـ
ـسب وَلَدَهُ, (
A,
Mgh,) or ابْنَهُ, (
Msb,) or ابْنًا, or بنْتًا, (
S,
K, *) is said when one has lost by death an adult child or son or daughter; (
S,
A,
Mgh,
Msb,
K;) meaning He prepared, or provided, in store for himself, a reward, by his patience on the occasion of his being afflicted and tried by the death of his adult child: (
Mgh, *
TA:) when a man has lost by death a child not arrived at the age of puberty, you say of him, اِفْتَرَطَهُ. (
S,
A,
Msb,
K.) [Hence also,] احتـ

TA.)
b2: اِحْتَـ
ـسَبْــتُ بَالشَّىْءِ I included the thing in a numbering, or reckoning; or made account of it; accounted it a matter of importance. (
Msb.) And فُلَانٌ لَا يُحْتَـ
ـسَبُ [for لا يحتـ
ـسب بَهِ] Such a one is made no account of; is not esteemed, or regarded, as of any account, or importance. (
A,
TA.)
b3: اِحْتَـ
ـسَبْــتُ عِنْدَهُ means اِكْتَفَيْتُ [I was, or became, sufficed, or contented, thereat, or with him, or at his abode]. (
A,
TA.) [and IbrD thinks that the verb has the same signification in the phrase اِحْتَـ
ـسَبْــتُ عَلَيْهِ بِالمَالِ, quoted in the
TA from the A; holding عليه to be here used in the sense of عَنْهُ; so that the meaning is I was, or became, sufficed, so as to have no need of him, or it, by the property: but I doubt whether this phrase be correctly transcribed.]
b4: احتـ
ـسب also signifies اِنْتَهَى [He abstained, or desisted;
app. as one sufficed, or contented]. (
K.)
b5: And احتـ
ـسب عَلَيْهِ كَذَا He disapproved and disallowed his doing, or having done, such a thing; (
S,

TA:) whence the appellation ↓ مُحْتَـ
ـسِبٌ. (
K.) and
accord. to some, احتـ
ـسب اللّٰهَ عَلَيْهِ means He said, May God take, or execute, vengeance upon him; or punish him; for his evil deeds. (
Har p. 371.
[See حَسِيبٌ.]) [In the present day, احتـ
ـسب عَلَيْهِ is used as meaning He prayed for aid against him by saying, حَـ
ـسْبُــنَا اللّٰهُ God is, or will be, sufficient for us.]
b6: You say also, احتـ
ـسب فُلَانًا, (
K,) or احتـ
ـسب مَا عِنْدَهُ, (
A,) meaning (
tropical:) He endeavoured to learn what such a one had [in his mind, or in his possession]. (
A,
K, *
TA.)
b7: See also 4.
9 احـ
ـسبّ He (a camel) was, or became, of a white colour intermixed with red (
S,
TA) and with black. (
TA.) حَـ
ـسْبٌ Sufficiency. (
K voce هَـ
ـسْبٌ.)
b2: حَـ
ـسْبُ is a [prefixed] noun (
S) [
syn. with كَفْىُ, as is implied in the
K voce قَطْ; or]
syn. with كَافِى; (
Msb;) or [virtually] meaning كَفَى [as a
pret. in the sense of an emphatic
aor. ]; (
S,
K;) or يَكْفِى: (
TA:)
Sb says that it is used to denote the being sufficed, or content. (
TA.) You say, حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ دِرْهَمٌ [and بِحَـ
ـسْبِــكَ دِرْهَمٌ, in which latter the ب is redundant; meaning Thy sufficiency, or a thing sufficing thee, is a dirhem; a phrase which may be used in two ways; as predicating of what is sufficient, that it is a dirhem; and as predicating of a dirhem, that it is sufficient; in which latter case, بحـ
ـسبــك is an
enunciative put before its
inchoative, (as also حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ,) so that the meaning is, a dirhem is a thing sufficing thee, i. e. a dirhem is sufficient for thee; as is shown in a marginal note in my copy of the
Mughnee, in art. بِ; or,
accord. to the
S and
K, a dirhem suffices thee:
accord. to
Bd (iii. 167), بحـ
ـسبــك means مُحْـ
ـسِبُــكَ, and كَافِيكَ, from أَحْـ
ـسَبَــهُ meaning كَفَاهُ; and is shown to have this meaning by its not importing a determinate signification in consequence of its being a
prefixed noun with its complement in the saying, هٰذَا رَجُلٌ حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ This is a man sufficing thee]. (
S,
Msb,
K.) You say also, حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ ذٰلِكَ That is, or will be, [or let that be,] sufficient for thee. (
TA.) And حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ اللّٰهُ, in the
Kur viii. 65, God is, or will be, sufficient for thee. (
Fr,
TA. See also حَسِيبُكَ اللّٰهُ.) and حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ بِصَدِيقِنَا [A person sufficing thee is our friend]; in which the ب is added to denote emphatic praise. (
Fr,
TA in art. بِ.) In the saying, هٰذَا رَجُلٌ حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ This is a man sufficing thee as a man, i. e. supplying to thee the place of any other [by his excellent qualities], (
S,
K,) and مَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ حَـ
ـسْبِــكَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ I passed by a man sufficing thee as a man, (
TA,) حـ
ـسبــك is an expression of praise, referring to the indeterminate noun [رجل]; because, in its case, [what is originally (see below)] an
inf. n. (فِعْلٌ [under which term lexicologists, but not grammarians, include the مَصْدَر]) is rendered, in grammatical analysis, by another word, [i. e., by an
act. part. n.,] as though one said مُحْـ
ـسِبٌ لَكَ, or كَافٍ
لَكَ. (
S. [Thus حـ
ـسبــك in these two instances is a صِفَة, i. e. an epithetic phrase; and من رجل is a تَمْيِيز, i. e. a
specificative phrase.]) When the noun to which حـ
ـسبــك refers is determinate, you put حـ
ـسب in the
accus. case, as a حال, i. e. a denotative of state; as in the saying, هٰذَا عَبْدُ اللّٰهِ حَـ
ـسْبَــكَ مِنْ رَجُلٍ This is 'Abd-Allah; being one sufficing thee as a man. (
S. [Here من رجل is, as before, a
specificative phrase.]) [See also 4, the corresponding verb.]) حـ
ـسب, in this manner, is used alike as
sing. and dual and
pl.; (
S,
K;) being [originally] an
inf. n. (
S.) It is also used alone, [as a
prefixed noun of which the complement is understood,] as in the phrase زَيْدٌ حَـ
ـسْبُ, without tenween, for حَـ
ـسْبِــى or حَـ
ـسْبُــكَ [&c., meaning Zeyd is sufficient for me or for thee &c.]; like as one says, جَآءَنِى زَيْدٌ لَيْسَ غَيْرُ, for لَيْسَ غَيْرُهُ عِنْدِى. (
S. [That is, حَـ
ـسْبُ, when thus used, is subject to the same rules as غَيْرُ and قَبْلُ, and بَعْدُ &c. when so used.])
b3: See also حَـ
ـسَبٌ, in three places.
A2: Also, (
TA,) and ↓ حِـ
ـسْبَــةٌ, (
K,) Burial of the dead: (
TA:) or burial of the dead in stones [
app. meaning in a grave cased with stones]: or burial of the dead wrapped in grave-clothes: like تَحْسِيبٌ. (
K. [See 2.]) حَـ
ـسَبٌ i. q. ↓ مَحْسُوبٌ; (
S,
K;) of the measure فَعَلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, like نَفَضٌ in the sense of مَنْفُوضٌ; (
S;) Numbered, counted, reckoned, calculated, or computed. (
S,
K.)
b2: A number counted. (
L.)
b3: Amount, quantity, or value. (
L.) Sometimes, (
S,
L,
K,) by poetic license, (
S,) and in prose, (
L,) ↓ حَـ
ـسْبٌ. (
S,
L,
K.) You say, الأَجْرُ بِحَـ
ـسَبِ مَا عَمِلْتَ, and ↓ بِحَـ
ـسْبِ, The recompense is, or shall be, according to the amount, or quantity, or value, of thy work. (
L.) And يُجْزَى المَرْءُ عَلَى حَـ
ـسَبِ عَمَلِهِ The man is, or shall be, paid according to the amount, or quantity, of his work. (
Msb.) and عَلَى حَـ
ـسَبِ مَا أَسْدَيْتَ إِلَىَّ شُكْرِى لَكَ [and ↓ حَـ
ـسْبَــمَا (for عَلَى حَـ
ـسَبِ مَا)] According to the amount, or value, of the benefit, or benefits, that thou hast conferred upon me are my thanks to thee. (
L.) And لِيَكُنْ عَمَلُكَ بِحَـ
ـسَبِ ذٰلِكَ Let thy deed, or work, be correspondent to the quantity, or number, of that: or adequate, or equivalent, to that. (
S.) And هٰذَا بِحَـ
ـسَبِ ذَا This is equal in number or quantity, or is equivalent, to that. (
K.) and مَا أَدْرِى مَا حَـ
ـسَبُ حَدِيثِكَ, i. e. ما قَدْرُهُ [
app. I know not what is the value of thy story]. (
Ks,
S.) And أَحْسَنْتُ إِلَيْهِ حَـ
ـسَبَ الطَّاقَةِ and عَلَى حَـ
ـسَبِ الطَّاقَةِ I benefited him according to the measure of ability. (
Mgh.)
b4: Also [Grounds of pretension to respect or honour, consisting in any qualities (either of oneself or of one's ancestors) which are enumerated, or recounted, as causes of glorying: and hence signifying nobility; rank or quality; honourableness, or estimableness, from whatever source derived:] originally, (
MF,) what one enumerates, or recounts, of the deeds, or qualities, in which his ancestors have gloried: (
S,
A,
Mgh, *
K,
MF:) secondly, what one enumerates, or recounts, of his own deeds, or qualities, in which he glories: thirdly, what one enumerates, or recounts, of any deeds, or qualities, that are causes of his glorying, of whatever kind they be: (
MF:) or the memorable deeds, or qualities, of one's ancestors; and one's own deeds, or qualities, in which he glories; because they were enumerated, or recounted, by the Arabs in contending, or disputing, for glory; (
T,
Msb, *
TA;) the latter consisting in such qualities as courage, and good disposition, and liberality: (
Msb:) or what are enumerated, or recounted, of generous actions, or qualities: (
Msb:) or good actions, or conduct, of oneself, and of one's ancestors: (
Sh,

i. q. حَالٌ]: (
K:) or intellect, or understanding: (
MF:) and a man's relations, consisting of his children and others:
pl. أَحْسَابٌ. (
Az,

Accord. to
ISk, (
S,
Msb,) حَـ
ـسَبٌ and كَرَمٌ may pertain to him who has not noble ancestors; but not شَرَفٌ nor مَجْدٌ. (
S,
Msb, *
K.) حَـ
ـسَبٌ is also used elliptically, (
Mgh,
TA,) [in the sense of حَسِيبٌ,
q. v.,] for ذُو حَـ
ـسَبٍ, (
TA,) and for ذَوُو حَـ
ـسَبٍ. (
Mgh.)
b5: اِشْتَرَى بِالحَـ
ـسَبِ He bought a thing in an honourable manner with respect to himself and the seller: حـ
ـسب, here, is said to be from حَـ
ـسَّبَــهُ “ he honoured him; ” or from حُـ
ـسْبَــانَةٌ “ a small pillow ” [because him for whom you put a pillow you honour: see 2]. (
TA.) حُـ
ـسْبَــةٌ, in a camel, A colour in which are whiteness and redness (
K,
TA) and blackness: (
TA:) in a man, [a reddish colour such as is termed]
شُقْرَة in the hair of the head: (
K:) and also in a man, (
K,
TA,) and in a camel, (
TA,) whiteness and redness produced by a whiteness of the skin arising from disease and infecting the hair [so as to turn it red]: (
K,

accord. to
IAar, blackness inclining to redness. (
