غدو

1 غَدَا, (S, M, Msb, K,) aor. ـْ (S, M, Msb,) inf. n. عُدُوٌّ (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K) and غَدْوٌ (M, TA, and so accord. to the CK instead of غُدُوٌّ [which is the only inf. n. commonly known]) and غُدْوَةٌ, (K,) He went, or went away, in the time called غُدْوَة, (Mgh, Msb,) i. e. [the early part of the morning,] the period between the prayer of daybreak and sunrise: this is the primary signification: (Msb:) or i. q. بَكَّرَ [he went forth early in the morning; in the first part of the day; or between the time of the prayer of daybreak and sunrise]; so in the phrase غَدَا عَلَيْهِ [he went forth early in the morning, &c., to him, or it]; (K;) as also ↓ اغتدى: (S, * K:) and ↓ غاداهُ signifies the same as غَدَا عَلَيْهِ; (S;) or the same as بَاكَرَهُ [which is syn. with بَكَّرَ عَلَيْهِ as expl. above; and signifies also, like بَكَّرَ عَلَيْهِ, he hastened to it, or to do it, at any time, morning or evening]: (ISd, K, TA:) الغُدُوُّ is the contr of الرَّوَاحُ [inf. n. of رَاحَ]. (S.) Hence, in the Kur [lxviii. 22], أَنِ اغْدُوا عَلَى حَرْثِكُمْ [Saying, Go ye forth early, &c., to your land's produce]: and the saying of a poet, وَالطَّيْرُ فِى وُكُنَاتِهَا ↓ وَقَدْ أَغْتَدِى

[And sometimes, or often, I go forth early, &c., while the birds are in their nests]. (TA.) b2: Afterwards, by reason of frequency of use, it became employed as meaning He went, or went away, or departed, at any time. (Mgh, * Msb, TA.) Hence the saying, (Mgh, Msb,) of the Prophet, (Msb,) in a trad., (Mgh,) اُغْدُ يَا أُنَيْسُ, (Mgh, Msb,) meaning Depart then, O (??) (Msb.) b3: [Freytag bas erroneously assigned to it another meaning, i. e. “ Nutrivit ” misled by his finding تَغْدُوْ put for تَغْذُو in art. طلى in the CK.] b4: غَدِىَ: see 5.2 غَدَّيْتُهُ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَغْدِيَةٌ, (Msb, K,) I fed him with the meal called غَدَآء [q. v.]. (S, * Msb, K.) 3 غَاْدَوَ see 1, first sentence. One says, أَنَا أُعَادِيهِ وَأُرَاوِحُهُ expl. in the first paragraph of art. روح.5 تغدّى [He ate the meal called غَدَآء, q. v.; properly,] he ate in the first part of the day; (S, Msb, * K;) as also ↓ غَدِىَ, (IKtt, K, TA,) inf. n. غَدًا. (TK: but in the TA written غداء.) When it is said to thee, تَغَدَّ [Eat thou the غَدَآء], thou sayest, مَا بِى مِنْ تَغَدٍّ [I have no desire for eating the غَدَآء]; and not مَا بِى غَدَآءٌ, for [the] غَدَآء is the meal itself. (S, Msb. See also 5 in art. عشو.) تَغَدَّى فِى رَمَضَانَ means تَسَحَّرَ [i. e. He ate the meal, or drank the draught of milk, called سَحُور, q. v.]. (TA.) b2: And تَغَدَّتِ الإِبِلُ means The camels pastured in the first part of the day. (AHn, TA.) 8 إِغْتَدَوَ see 1, first and second sentences. [10. استغدى accord. to Freytag is syn. with تَغَدَّى; but for this I do not find any authority.]

غَدٌ, meaning The morrow, the day next after the present day, (Msb,) is originally ↓غَدْوٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the و being elided, (S, Msb,) without any substitution, (S,) and the د being made a letter of declinability. (Msb.) And one says غَدًا meaning [I will do such a thing, &c.,] tomorrow: and بَعْدَ غَدٍ the day after to-morrow. (MA.) See also غَدَاةٌ. b2: And its signification has been extended so that it is applied to a remote time that is expected, (Msb, TA,) and to a near time. (Nh, TA.) b3: It is not used in its complete form except in poetry: (Nh, TA:) Lebeed, (S, TA,) or Dhu-r-Rummeh, (TA,) has thus used it in his saying, وَمَا النَّاسُ إِلَّا كَالدِّيَارِ وَأَهْلُهَا بَلَاقِعُ ↓ بِهَا يَوْمَ حَلُّوهَا وَغَدْوًا [And mankind are no other than the like of dwellings, the occupants thereof being in them daring the day in which they have alighted in them, and to-morrow they are vacant]: (S, TA:) or, accord. to the M, one says, هٰذَا عَدُكَ and ↓ هٰذَا غَدْوُكَ [This is thy morrow]. (TA.) b4: It has no diminutive. (Sb, S, in art. امس.) غَدْوٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in there places.

غَدَاةٌ: see غُدْوَةٌ, in four places: though [properly] fem., and not heard as made mase., it may be made mase. if meant to be understood as signifying the “ first part of the day: ” (IAmb, Msb:) it is originally غَدَوَةٌ, because its pl. is غَدَوَاتٌ. (IHsh, TA.) One says, ↓ آتِيكَ غَدَاةَ غَدٍ

[I will come to thee in the early part of the morning, &c., of to-morrow]. (S, TA.) بِالْغَدَاةِ وَالْعَشِىِّ in the Kur [vi. 52 and xviii. 27] means After the prayer of daybreak and [after] the prayer of [the period of the afternoon called] the عَصْر: or, accord. to some, [it means in the morning and the evening, or rather in the forenoon and the afternoon, for they say that] it denotes constancy of religious service: Ibn-'Ámir and Aboo-'Abd-erRahmán Es-Sulamee read وَالْعَشِىِّ ↓ بِالْغُدْوَةِ; but the former is the common reading; and A 'Obeyd says, we think that they read thus following the handwriting, for it is written in all the copies of the Kur-án with و like الصَّلَوة and الزَّكَوة, and this is not an indication of the reading [which they have adopted], as the و in الصلوة and الزكوة is not pronounced [otherwise than as an] of prolongation except that it requires the fet-hah that follows to be uttered with a somewhat broad sound]. (TA.) b2: هُوَ ابْنُ غَدَاتَيْنِ means He is a son of two days [i. e. he is two days old]. (TA.) b3: The dim. is ↓ غُدَيَّةٌ: (TA:) or this is the dim. of ↓ غُدْوَةٌ: (EM p. 56:) one says, أَرْكَبُ

إِلَيْهِ غُدَيَّةً [I will ride to him, or it, in a short period of an early part of a morning, &c.]: and one says also, ↓ ذَتَيْتُهُ غُدَيَّانَاتٍ [I came to him, or it, in short periods of early parts of mornings, &c.]; an anomalous [pl.] dim. like عُشَيَّانَات; both of which are mentioned by Sb. (TA.) غَدْوَةٌ A journey in the first part of the day: [an inf. n. un. of غَدَا:] opposed to رَوْحَةٌ. (TA.) b2: See also the next paragraph. b3: And see غَدَآءٌ.

غُدْوَةٌ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) and ↓ غَدْوَةٌ, said by MF to be well known, and ↓ غِدْوَةٌ, said by him to be rare, or disapproved, (TA,) The early part of the morning; the first part of the day; (K;) or the period between the time of the prayer of daybreak and sunrise; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ غَدَاةٌ, and ↓ غَدِيَّةٌ, (K, TA,) the last [in the CK غَدْيَةِ, but correctly] a dial. var. of غُدْوَةٌ, like ضَحِيَّةٌ a dial. var. of ضَحْوَةٌ: (IAar, TA:) or ↓ غَدَاةٌ is syn. with ضَحْوَةٌ [meaning the early part of the forenoon, after sunrise; accord. to some, when the sun is yet low; or, accord. to others, when the sun is somewhat high]: (Msb:) [it may therefore be generally rendered morning, before, or after, sunrise:] the pls. are غُدًى, which is pl. of غُدْوَةٌ; (S, Msb, TA;) and غَدَوَاتٌ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) which is pl. of ↓ غَدَاةٌ; (S, Msb, TA;) and ↓ غُدُوٌّ, (K, TA,) which is a pl. of غُدْوَةٌ, formed by rejecting the ة [of the sing.], or, accord. to the M, an anomalous pl. of ↓ غَدَاةٌ, or, as J says, [in the S,] referring to the phrase بِالْغَدُوِّ وَالْآصَالِ, in the Kur [vii. 204 and xiii. 16 and xxiv. 36], بِالغُدُوِّ there means بِالغَدَوَاتِ, and is a verb [i. e. an inf. n.] used to denote the time, as [is طُلُوع] in the saying طُلُوعَ الشَّمْسِ meaning فِى وَقْتِ طُلُوعِ الشمس; (TA;) and غَدِيَّاتٌ, (IAar, K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, غَدَياتٌ,]) which is pl. of ↓ غَدِيَّةٌ; (TA;) and غَدَايَا, (K, TA,) which is likewise a pl. of ↓ غَدِيَّةٌ, accord. to IAar, and, if so, regularly formed from غَدَايِوُ, in the same manner as has already been expl. in the case of عَشَايَا [pl. of عَشِيَّةٌ, q. v. voce عَشِىٌّ]; by some said to be a pl. of غُدْوَةٌ, but this has been controverted by IHsh in the Expos. of the “ Kaabeeyeh ” and by its commentator ['AbdEl-Kádir] El-Baghdádee; (TA;) or غَدَايَا is not used except in conjunction with عَشَايَا; (K, TA;) one says, إِنِّى لَآتِيهِ بِالغَدَايَا وَالعَشَايَا [Verily I come to him in the early parts of mornings and in the late parts of evenings], for the purpose of conformity. (S, TA.) Zj says that when غُدْوَة means The بُكْرَة [or early part of the morning, &c.,] of the present day, or of a particular day, it is imperfectly decl.: and AHei says that it is thus accord. to the opinion commonly obtaining, as is also بُكْرَة, each as being a generic proper name, like أُسَامَةُ; and that when you mean to generalize, you say, غُدْوَةٌ وَقْتُ نَــشَاطٍ [An early part of a morning is a time of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]; and when you mean to particularize, لَأَسِيرَنَّ اللَّيْلَةَ إِلَى غُدْوَةَ [I will assuredly journey to-night until the early part of the morning]: (TA:) [in the latter case also] one says, أَتَيْتُهُ غُدْوَةَ [I came to him in the early part of the morning of this, or of a particular, day]; غدوة being here imperfectly decl. because it is determinate, like سَحَرَ; but it is of those adv. ns. that may be used otherwise than as adv. ns.: you say, سِيرَ عَلَى فَرَسِكَ غُدْوَةَ and غُدْوَةً [i. e. Journeying was performed on thy horse, or mare, in the غُدْوَة of this, or of a particular, day, and in a غُدْوَة,] and غُدْوَةٌ and غُدْوَةٌ [i. e. the journey of the غُدْوَة of this, or of a particular, day, and the journey of a غُدْوَة, was performed (lit. was journeyed) on thy horse, or mare, غُدْوَةُ and غُدْوَةٌ being for. مَسِيرَةُ غُدْوَةَ and مَسِيرَةُ غُدْوَةٍ, like as شَهْرٌ in the Kur xxxiv. 11 is for مَسِيرَةُ شَهْرٍ]; what is with tenween, of these, being indeterminate, and what is without tenween being determinate. (S. [In one of my copies of the S, سِرْ is put in the place of سِيرَ: that the latter is the right is shown by the addition of غُدْوَةُ and غُدْوَةٌ; for each of these must be what is termed نَائِبٌ عَنْ فَاعِلٍ i. e. a substitute for an agent.]) See also غَدَاةٌ, in two places.

غِدْوَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

غَدَوِىٌّ: see غَدِىٌّ. b2: Also Whatever [offspring] is in [any of] the bellies of pregnant animals (AO, K, TA) of camels and of sheep or goats: (AO, TA:) or peculiarly of sheep or goats; (K, TA;) thus in the dial. of the Prophet: (TA:) or it [virtually, in a trad. mentioned in what follows,] means the selling a camel, or other [animal], for what the stallion begets: or the selling a sheep for the offspring begotten by the ram: (K:) in all of which senses غَذِىٌّ and غَذَوِىٌّ are [said to be] syn.: (K in art. غذو:) or غَدَوِىٌّ, (TA,) or غَذَوِىٌّ, or, as some relate a verse of El-Farezdak in which it occurs, غَدَوِىٌّ, (S in art. غذو,) means the selling a thing for the offspring begotten by the ram [or, as appears from what follows, by the stallioncamel] in that year: غَدَوِىٌّ being a rel. n. from غَدٌ: as though they rendered one desirous by saying, “Our camels will bring forth and we will give thee to-morrow (غَدًا): ” (S in art. غذو, and TA:) what is thus termed is forbidden in a trad.: a man used to buy, for a camel or a she-goat or money, what was in the bellies of pregnant animals; and this is a hazardous proceeding, and was therefore forbidden. (Nh, TA.) See also art. غذو. b3: And see عَدَوِيَّةٌ, in art. عدو.

غَدْيَانُ Eating the meal called غَدَآء: (S, K: *) fem. غَدْيَا, of the measure فَعْلَى, applied to a woman; (S;) or غَدْيَآءُ: (so in copies of the K:) they are originally with و [in the place of the ى], on the ground of preference, as is said in the M: and غَدْيَانَةٌ is mentioned by Z, as applied to a woman, coupled with عَشْيَانَةٌ. (TA.) غَدَآءٌ The morning-meal, that is eaten between daybreak and sunrise; i. e. the meal, or repast, of the غُدْوَة; (K;) or of the غَدَاة; (Msb;) the meal, or repast, that is the contr. of the عَشآء: (S:) [it may therefore be rendered breakfast: but it is now commonly applied to dinner, which is eaten soon after the prayer of noon, and which is a lighter repast than the عَشَآء, i. e. supper:] الغدوة [app. ↓ الغَدْوَةُ] as meaning الغَدَآءُ is vulgar: (TA voce عَشْوَةٌ:) the pl. of غَدَآءٌ is أَغْذِيَةٌ. (K.) And The [meal, or the draught of milk, called]

سَحُور is thus termed; because it is to the person fasting the like of what it is to him who is not fasting. (TA.) b2: Also The pasture of camels in the first part of the day. (TA.) غُذُوٌّ: see غُدْوَةٌ.

غَدِىٌّ Of, or relating to, the morrow; the rel. n. from غَدٌ; as also ↓ غَدَوىٌّ; (S, K;) the latter allowable. (S.) b2: See also عَدَويَّةٌ, in art. عدو.

غَدِيَّةٌ: see its syn. غُدْوَةٌ, in three places.

غُدَيَّةٌ: and see غَدَاةٌ, last sentence.

الغَادِى The lion: (K, TA:) because he goes forth in the early part of the morning against the prey. (TA.) غَادِيَةٌ A cloud that rises (S, K) in the صَبَاح (S) or in the غُدْوَة (K) [i. e. in the first part of the day]: or a rain of the [period of the morning called] غَدَاة: (K, TA:) thus says Lh: the pl. is غَوَادٍ. (TA.) [See a verse in the Ham p. 429.]

مَغْدًى and ↓ مَغْدَاةٌ [A place to which people go, or to which they return, in the period of the morning called غُدْوَة; opposed to مَرَاحٌ and مَرَاحَةٌ]. b2: [Hence] one says, مَا تَرَكَ فُلَانٌ مِنْ أَبِيهِ مَغْدًى

وَلَا مَرَاحًا, and وَلَا مَرَاحَةً ↓ مَغْدَاةً, expl. in art. روح. (S in art. روح, and K in the present art.) مَغْدَاةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

دعو

1 دَعَوْتُ and دَعَيْتُ signify the same: (Fr, K and TA in art. دعى:) the aor. of the former is أَدْعُو, (TA in that art.,) sec. Pers\. fem. sing.

تَدْعِينَ and تَدْعُوِينَ and تَدٌعُيْنَ, the last with an inclination to the sound of a dammeh in the vowel of the ع [so that it is between a kesreh and a dammeh], and sec.

And دَعَوْتُ اللّٰهَ لَهُ [I prayed to God for him]; and عَلَيْهِ [against him]; inf. n. دُعَآءٌ: (S:) [and دَعَوْتُ لَهُ I prayed for him, or blessed him; and دَعَوْتُ عَلَيْهِ I prayed against him, or cursed him:] and دَعَوْتُ لَهُ بِخَيْرٍ [I supplicated for him good]; and دَعَوْتُ عَلَيْهِ بِشَرٍّ [I imprecated upon him evil].

[دُعَآءٌ and] دَعْوٌ, (TA, [but the former is more common,]) also signify I called him, called out to him, or summoned him, (S, MA, Mgh, Msb,) syn. نَادَيْتُهُ, (Mgh, Msb,) or الدُّعَآءُ is to the near and النِّدَآءُ is to the distant, (Kull p. 184,) and desired him to come, to come forward, or to advance; (Msb;) and ↓ اِسْتَدْعَيْتُهُ signifies the same, (S, MA,) [i. e.] I called him to myself. (MA.) One says, دَعَا المُؤَذِّنُ النَّاسَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ [The مؤذّن called the people to prayer]. (Msb.) And the saying of En-Nahdee كُنَّا نَدْعُو وَنَدَعُ means We used to call, or invite, them to ElIslám at one time, and to leave doing so at another time. (Mgh.) And دَعَوْتُ النَّاسَ, (Msb,) inf. n. دُعَآءٌ and دَعْوَةٌ, (S,) or the latter is a simple subst., (Msb,) and مَدْعَاةٌ, (S, [app. there mentioned as an inf. n., agreeably with many other instances,]) means also I invited people to eat with me, or at my abode.

(K.) [SM, who appears to have read ↓ اِدَّعَاهُ, says that it is like اِسْتَلْحَقَهُ and اِسْتَلَاطَهُ.]5 التَّدَعِّى [inf. n. of تَدَعَّتْ] signifies The تَطْرِيب [or singing, or quavering or trilling and prolonging of the voice, or prolonging and modulating of the voice,] of a woman wailing for the dead.

And [hence,] تَدَاعَتْ إِبِلُ بَنِى فُلَانٍ (tropical:) (tropical:) The camels of such a one became broken by emaciation. (TA.) b3: تَدَاعَوْ بِالأَلْقَابِ They called one another by surnames, or nicknames. (Msb.) b4: التَّدَاعِى also signifies (assumed tropical:) The trying one another with an enigma or enigmas; or contending, one with another, in proposing an enigma or enigmas; syn. التَّحَاجِى. (TA in art. حجو.) You say, بَيْنَهُمْ أُدْعِيَّةٌ يَتَدَاعُوْنَ بِهَا (assumed tropical:) [Between them is an enigma with which they try one another; or by proposing which they contend, one with another].

(Har p. 446.) b6: See also 8, in two places.

Akh heard one or more of the Arabs say, لَوْدَعَوْنَا لَانْدَعَيْنَا, meaning لَأَجُبْنَا [i. e. Had they called us, &c., we had certainly answered, or replied, or assented, or consented]. (S.) 8 اِدَّعَى He asserted a thing to be his, or to belong to him, or to be due to him, either truly or falsely: (K, * TA:) he claimed a thing; laid claim to it; or demanded it for himself: and he desired a thing; or wished for it. (Msb.) and اِدَّعَوُا الشَّىْءَ and الشىء ↓ تَدَاعَوُا signify the same [i. e. They claimed the thing, every one of them for himself]. (Mgh.) You say, اِدَّعَيْتُ عَلَى فُلَانٍ كَذَا [I asserted myself to have a claim upon such a one for such a thing; preferred a claim against such a one for such a thing; or claimed of such a one such a thing]. (S.) And اِدَّعَى زَيْدٌ عَلَى عَمْرو مَالًا [Zeyd asserted himself to have a claim upon 'Amr for property; or preferred a claim against 'Amr &c.]. (Mgh.) And اِدَّعَيْتَ عَلَىَّ مَا لَمْ أَفْعَلْ [Thou hast asserted against me, or charged against me, or accused me of, that which I have not done]. (S and K in art. شرب, and S in art. اكل.) هٰذَا الَّذِى كُنْتُمْ بِهِ تَدَّعُونَ, in the Kur [lxvii. 27], means This is that on account of which ye used to assert vain and false things: or which ye used to deny, or disbelieve: or, accord. to Fr, the latter verb may here be used in the sense of تَدْعُونَ; and the meaning may be, this is that which ye desired to hasten, and for which ye prayed to God in the words of the Kur [viii. 32], “O God, if this be the truth from Thee, then rain Thou upon us stones from Heaven, or bring upon us some [other] painful punishment: ” it may be from الدُّعَآءُ: and it may be from الدَّعْوَى: (TA:) [i. e.] it means this is that which ye used to demand, and desire to hasten; from الدُّعَآءُ: or that which ye used to assert, [namely,] that there will be no raising to life; from الدَّعْوَى. (Bd.) And وَلَهُمْ مَا يَدَّعُونَ, in the Kur [xxxvi. 57], is explained as meaning and they shall have what they desire, or wish for; which is referrible to the meaning of الدُّعَآءُ. (TA.) b2: You say also, اِدَّعَى غَيْرَ أَبِيهِ [He asserted the relationship of father to him of one who was not his father; or claimed as his father one who was not his father]. (T, Mgh, Msb.) And يَدَّعِى إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيهِ [He asserts his relationship as a son, or claims the relationship of a son, to one who is not his father]. (T, Msb. See 4, in three places.) And يَدَّعِيهِ غَيْرُ أَبِيهِ [One who is not his father asserts him to be his son; or claims him as his son]. (T, Msb.) الاِدِّعَآءُ in war signifies The asserting one's relationship; syn. الاِعْتِزَآءُ; (S, TA;) as also ↓ التَّدَاعِى; (TA;) i. e. the saying “ I am such a one the son of such a one. ” (S.) And [hence] sometimes it includes the meaning of Informing, or telling; and therefore بِ may be prefixed to its objective complement; so that one says, فُلَانٌ يَدَّعِى بِكَرَمِ فِعَالِهِ, i. e. Such a one informs of the generosity of his deeds. (Msb.) 10 إِسْتَدْعَوَ see 1, near the middle of the paragraph. b2: [Hence, استدعى signifies also It called for, demanded, required, or invited, a thing. See also دَعَابِهِ.]

دَعْوَةٌ [as an inf. n. of un.] signifies A single time or act (S, Msb) [of prayer and of imprecation, as is indicated in the S, and also, though less plainly, in the TA].

He, or it, is distant from me the space of the call of the man and of the dog]. (K, TA.) And لَهُمُ الدَّعْوَةُ عَلَى

غَيْرِهِمْ The call is to them before the others of them: (K, TA: [يَبْدَأُ in the CK is a mistake for يُبْدَأُ:]) accord. to the T and the Nh, in the case of gifts, or pay, or salary. (TA.) b3: The call to prayer: whence, in a trad., الدَّعُوَةُ فِى الحَبَشَةِ [meaning The office of calling to prayer rests among the Abyssinians]; (JM, TA;) said by the Prophet in preference of his مُؤَذِّن Bilál. (JM.) b4: A call, or an invitation, to El-Islám. (Mgh.)

(S, Msb, K.) You say, كُنَّافِى

دَعْوَةِ فُلَانٍ and ↓ مَدْعَاتِهِ, meaning [We were included in] the invitation (دُعَآء [see 1]) of such a one to food: (S, Msb: [but in the latter, نَحْنُ, in the place of كُنَّا:]) [or we were at the repast, or feast, or banquet, of such a one; for] you say [also] دَعَاهُ إِلَى الدَّعْوَةِ and ↓ الى المَدْعَاةِ [He invited him to the repast, or feast, or banquet: and in this sense دَعْوَة is commonly used in the present day]. (MA.) b6: See also دِعْوَةٌ: b7: and دَعْوَى. b8: Also i. q. حَلِفٌ or حَلْفٌ (accord. to different copies of the K) [both in the sense of Confederation to aid or assist]: (K, TA:) [whence] one says, دَعْوَةٌ فُلَانٍ فِى بَنِى فُلَانٍ

[meaning The confederation of such a one is with the sons of such a one]. (TA.) دُعْوَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

دَعْوَى: see دُعَآءٌ, in five places. b2: Also a subst. from 8; (S, M, Mgh, Msb, TA;) omitted in the K, though better known than the sun; (TA;) and so ↓ دَعَاوَةٌ (M, Msb, K) and ↓ دِعَاوَةٌ and ↓ دِعْوَةٌ, (M, K,) accord. to the general pronunciation, (M, TA,) and ↓ دَعْوَةٌ, (M, K,) accord. to the pronunciation of 'Adee of Er-Rabáb, (M, TA,) and ↓ دَاعِيَةٌ; (TA, there said to be syn. with دَعْوَى;) [meaning An assertion that a thing belongs to one, or is due to one; a claim; as is indicated in the S and Mgh and K &c.;] a demand; a suit; (Yz, Az, Msb;) whether true or false: (Mgh, K, TA:) the pl. of دَعْوَى is دَعَاوٍ and دَعَاوَى; the former of which is preferable accord. to some, being, as IJ says, the original form; but some say that the latter is preferable: (Msb:) [the latter only is mentioned in the Mgh:] the alif in the sing. [written ى] is a sign of the fem. gender; and therefore the word is without tenween. (Mgh.) Yz mentions the sayings, لِى فِى هٰذَا الأَمْرِ دَعْوَى I have, in respect of this thing, [a claim or] a demand, and دَعَاوَى or دَعَاوٍ [claims or] demands, as written in different copies. (Az, Msb.) And لَوْ أُعْطِىَ النَّاسُ بِدَعَاوِيهِمْ [If men were given according to their claims, or demands,] occurs in a trad. (Msb.) b3: See also دِعْوَةٌ.

دُعْوِىٌّ is a word used only in negative sentences: (S:) you say, مَا بِالدَّارِ دُعْوِىٌّ There is not in the house any one: (S, K: *) Ks says that it is from دَعَوْتُ, and [properly] means لَيْسَ فِيهَا مَنْ يَدْعُو [there is not in it one who calls, &c.]. (S.) دُعَآءٌ is an inf. n. of 1; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ دَعْوَى: (K:) the former is originally دُعَاوٌ: (S:) [both, used as simple substs., signify A prayer, or supplication, to God:] and the pl. of the former is أَدْعِيَةٌ. (S.) IF says that some of the Arabs, for ↓ دَعْوَةٌ, say ↓ دَعْوَى, with the fem. alif [written ى]. (Msb, TA.)

And hence, in the Kur [x. 10], فِيهَا سُبْحَانَك اللّٰهُمَّ ↓ دَعْوَاهُمْ [Their prayer in it shall be سبحانك اللّٰهمّ]. (TA.) [دُعَآءٌ followed by لِ signifies An invocation of good, a blessing, or a benediction: followed by عَلَى, an imprecation of evil, a curse, or a malediction.] سُورَهُ الدُّعَآءِ is a title of The first chapter of the Kur-án.

Belief; particularly in God, and in his word and apostles &c.: faith: &c.]: a meaning mentioned by the Expositors of El-Bukháree.

(TA.) دَعِىٌّ One invited to a repast: pl. دُعَوَآءُ; as in the saying عِنْدَهُ دُعَوَآءُ [With him, or at his abode, are guests invited to a repast].

(Jel.) b3: And One whose origin, or lineage, or parentage, is suspected; (K, TA;) as also ↓ مَدْعِىٌّ: pl. of the former as in the next preceding sentence.

(Msb, TA.) [Hence,] دَاعِى اللّٰهِ [God's summoner, or inviter; i. e.] the prophet: (K:) and also, (Msb, K,) or simply الدَّاعِى, (TA,) The مُؤَذِّن [or summoner to prayer]. (Msb, K, TA.) [Hence also, دَاعِى المَنَايَا The summoner of death, lit. of deaths; like طَارِقُ المَنَايَا] b2: See also the next paragraph, in two places. b3: Also A punisher. (TA.) دَاعِيَةٌ: see دَعْوَةٌ, in two places: b2: and see also دَعْوَى. b3: دَاعِيَّةٌ اللَّبَنِ The remainder of the milk, (K,) or what is left, of the milk, in the udder, (S, Mgh,) that draws, or attracts, (K,) or in order that it may draw, or attract, (S, Mgh,) what is to come after it; (S, Mgh, K; *) as also اللَّبَنِ ↓ دَاعِى, occurring in a trad., where it is said, دَعْ دَاعِىَ اللَّبَنِ [Leave thou the remainder of the milk, in the udder, that is to draw, or attract, what is to come after it]; (S, Mgh;) i. e. do not exhaust it entirely.

نَصِيبِين:
بالفتح ثم الكسر ثم ياء علامة الجمع الصحيح، ومن العرب من يجعلها بمنزلة الجمع فيعربها في الرفع بالواو وفي الجر والنصب بالياء، والأكثر يقولون نصيبين ويجعلونها بمنزلة ما لا ينصرف من الأسماء، والنسبة إليها نصيبيّ ونصيبينيّ، فمن قال نصيبينيّ أجراه مجرى ما لا ينصرف وألزمه الطريقة الواحدة مما ذكرنا، ومن قال نصيبيّ جعله بمنزلة الجمع ثم ردّه إلى واحده ونسب إليه: وهي مدينة عامرة من بلاد الجزيرة على جادّة القوافل من الموصل إلى الشام وفيها وفي قراها على ما يذكر أهلها أربعون ألف بستان، بينها وبين سنجار تسعة فراسخ، وبينها وبين الموصل ستة أيام، وبين دنيسر يومان عشرة فراسخ، وعليها سور كانت الروم بنته وأتمه أنوشروان الملك عند فتحه إياها، وقالوا: كان سبب فتحه إياها أنه حاصرها وما قدر على فتحها فأمر أن تجمع إليه العقارب فحملوا العقارب من قرية تعرف بطيرانشاه من عمل شهرزور بينها وبين سمرداذ مدينة شهرزور فرسخ، فرماهم بها في العرّادات والقوارير وكان يملأ القارورة من العقارب ويضعها في العرّادة وهي على هيئة المنجنيق فتقع القارورة وتنكسر وتخرج تلك العقارب، ولا زال يرميهم بالعقارب حتى ضجّ أهلها وفتحوا له البلد وأخذها عنوة، وذلك أصل عقارب نصيبين، وأكثر العقارب جبل صغير داخل السور في ناحية من المدينة ومنه تنتشر العقارب في المدينة كلها، ذكر ذلك كله أحمد بن الطيب السرخسي في بعض كتبه، وطول مدينة نصيبين خمس وسبعون درجة وعشرون دقيقة، وعرضها ست وثلاثون درجة واثنتا عشرة دقيقة، في الإقليم الرابع، طالعها سعد الأخبية، بيت حياتها إحدى عشرة درجة من الثور تحت اثنتي عشرة درجة وثمان وأربعين دقيقة من السرطان، يقابلها مثلها من الجدي، وقال صاحب الزيج: طول نصيبين سبع وعشرون درجة ونصف، ونصيبين مدينة وبئة لكثرة بساتينها ومياهها، وقد روي في بعض الآثار
أن النبي، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، قال: رفعت ليلة أسري بي فرأيت مدينة فأعجبتني فقلت: يا جبرائيل ما هذه المدينة؟ قال: هذه نصيبين، فقلت: اللهم عجّل فتحها واجعل فيها بركة للمسلمين! وسار عياض بن غنم إلى نصيبين فامتنعت عليه فنازلها حتى فتحها على مثل صلح أهل الرّها، قال: كتب عامل نصيبين إلى معاوية وهو عامل عثمان على الشام والجزيرة يشكو إليه أن جماعة من المسلمين الذين معه أصيبوا بالعقارب، فكتب إليه يأمره أن يوظف على كل حيز من أهل المدينة عدّة من العقارب مسمّاة في كل ليلة، ففعل فكانوا يأتون بها فيأمر بقتلها حتى قلّت، وقال سيف:
بعث سعد بن أبي وقّاص سنة 17 من الكوفة عياض ابن غنم لفتح الجزيرة، وغير سيف يقول: إنما بعث أبو عبيدة من الشام فقدم عبد الله بن عبد الله بن عتبان فسلك على دجلة حتى إذا انتهى إلى الموصل عبر إلى بلد وهي بلط حتى إذا انتهى إلى نصيبين أتوه بالصلح فكتب بذلك إلى عياض فقبله فعقد لهم عبد الله بن عبد الله بن عتبان وأخذوا ما أخذوا عنوة ثم أجروا مجرى أهل الذمة، قال عند ذلك ابن عتبان:
ألا من مبلغ عني بجيرا: ... فما بيني وبينك من تعادي
فإن تقبل تلاق العدل فينا ... فأنسى ما لقيت من الجهاد
وإن تدبر فما لك من نصيب ... نصيبين فتلحق بالعباد
وقد ألقت نصيبين إلينا ... سواد البطن بالخرج الشداد
لقد لقيت نصيبين الدواهي ... بدهم الخيل والجرد الوراد
وقال بعضهم يذكر نصيبين: وظاهرها مليح المنظر وباطنها قبيح المخبر، وقال آخر يذم نصيبين فقال:
نصيب نصيبين من ربها ... ولاية كل ظلوم غشوم
فباطنها منهم، في لظى، ... وظاهرها من جنان النعيم
وينسب إلى نصيبين جماعة من العلماء والأعيان، منهم: الحسن بن علي بن الوثاق بن الصلب بن أبان بن زريق بن إبراهيم بن عبد الله أبو القاسم النصيبي الحافظ، قدم دمشق وحدث بها في سنة 344 عن عبد الله بن محمد بن ناجية البغدادي وأبي يحيى عبّاد بن علي بن مرزوق البصري وإسحاق بن إبراهيم الصوّاف ومحمد ابن خالد الراسبي البصري وعبدان الجواليقي وأبي يعلى الموصلي وأبي خليفة الجمحي وغيرهم، روى عنه تمام بن محمد وأبو العباس بن السمسار وأبو عبد الله بن مندة وأبو علي سعيد بن عثمان بن السكن الحافظ ولم يذكر وفاته، ونصيبين أيضا: قرية من قرى حلب، وتلّ نصيبين أيضا: من نواحي حلب. ونصيبين أيضا: مدينة على شاطــئ الفرات كبيرة تعرف بنصيبين الروم، بينها وبين آمد أربعة أيام أو ثلاثة ومثلها بينها وبين حرّان، ومن قصد بلاد الروم من حرّان مرّ بها.
