K:) but one should not say, اشملهم خَيْرًا. (

شَمالًــا مِثل شَمَلَت; or of a similar passage in which إِذَا هَبَّتْ is put instead of هَبَّتْ alone.]) One says of two persons when they are separated, شَمَلَتْ رِيحُهُمَا (assumed

accord. to
As, The wrapping oneself with the garment so as to cover with it his body, not raising a side thereof in such a manner that there is in it an opening from which he may put forth his hand, or arm: (
O:) this is also termed التَّلَفُّعُ: and sometimes one reclines in the state thus described: (
TA:) but A 'Obeyd says,
accord. to the explanation of the lawyers, it is the wrapping oneself with one garment, not having upon him another, then raising it on one side and putting it upon his shoulders: [so says
Sgh; and he adds,] he who explains it thus has regard to the dislike of one's uncovering himself and exposing to view the pudenda; and he who explains it as do the lexicologists dislikes one's covering his whole body for fear of his becoming in a state in which his respiration would become obstructed so that he would perish: (
O:) or it is one's covering his whole body with the كِسَآء or with the إِزَار; (
S,
Msb;) to which some add, not raising aught of the sides thereof. (
Msb.) [See also art. صم.] One says also, يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى السَّيفِ [He wraps his garment over the sword; or] he covers the sword with his garment. (

TA.) [And in like manner one says of a woman, اشتملت مِنْهُ عَلَى وَلَدٍ (assumed
tropical:) She became with child by him. And الكِتَابُ يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى كَذَا وَكَذَا (assumed
tropical:) The book, or writing, comprises such and such things. And hence the phrase in grammar, بَدَلُ اشْتِمَالٍ (assumed

b3: One says also, اشتمل عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرُ, meaning (
tropical:) The event [such as a misfortune or an evil of any kind beset him, or beset him on every side, or] encompassed him; (
K,
TA;) like as the كِسَآء encompasses the body. (
TA.)
b4: One says of wine, تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى العَقْلِ فَتَمْلِكُهُ وَتَذْهَبُ بِهِ (assumed
tropical:) [It compasses the intellect, and so takes possession of it, and makes away with it]: (
Ham p. 555:) or تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى عَقْلِ الإِنْسَانِ فَتُغَيِّبُهُ (assumed
tropical:) [It compasses the intellect of the man, and conceals it]; and thus one says of the present world or its enjoyments (الدُّنْيَا). (

S,
Msb,) or his, (
Mgh,) disunited, or discomposed, state of affairs [&c.]. (

وَقَدْ يَجْمَعُ اللّٰهُ الشَّتِيتَ مِنَ الشَّمَلْ [Sometimes, or often, God raises the young man after a stumble: and sometimes, or often, God unites, or composes, what is dissolved, or broken up, of the state of affairs previously united, or composed]: (
S, O:)
Az cites this
ex. in his “ Nawádir: ” (

S,
K;) the last two
expl. by
Lth as a كِسَآء having a sparse villous substance, with which one wraps himself, smaller than the قَطِيفَة: (
TA:) or the first signifies a small كِسَآء which one wears in the manner of the إِزَار [or waist-wrapper]: (

Msb.) [See also مِـ
ـشْمَالٌ.]
b2: [Hence the saying,] ضَمَّ عَلَيْهِ اللَّيْلُ شَمْلَتَهُ (

شَمَلٌّ: see

شِمِلٌّ: see شَمْلٌ, near the end of the paragraph.
A2: Also, (

TA,) and ↓
شِمَالٌ; (
K;) Light, active, or agile; (
S,
O,
Msb,
K;) or swift. (
Msb,

accord. to
AA, he means his hand, or arm, called the
شِمَال; [i. e. I lowered my left hand or arm;] شِمْلَالٌ and
شِمَالٌ meaning the same. (
S, O.)
شَمَالٌ, (
S,
O,

S,
O,
K, [in one place in the O erroneously written شَأمَلّ,]) and ↓ شَأْمَلٌ, (

TA,) and ↓ شَمَلٌّ, (
MF,
TA,) [every one of these] used as a
subst. and as an
epithet, (
K,) [so that one says رِيحُ الـ
ـشَّمَالِ &c. as well as رِيحٌ
شَمَالٌ &c. and
شَمَالٌ &c. alone; The north wind: or a northerly wind:] the wind that is the opposite to the جَنُوب: (
Msb:) the wind that blows from the direction of the قُطْب [or pole-star]: (
S:) or the wind that blows from the direction of the حِجْر [which is on what is called the north, but what is rather to be called the north-west, side of the Kaabeh]: (
M,
K:) or the wind that blows from the direction of the right hand of a person facing the Kibleh [by which is meant the angle of the Black Stone; i. e., correctly speaking, from the north]: (
Th,
M,
K:) or, correctly, the wind that blows from between the place of sunrise and the constellation of the Bear (بَنَات نَعْش): or from between the place of sunrise and the place of setting of the constellation of the Eagle (النَّسْر الطَّائِر): (
IAar,
K:) [i. e. the wind that blows from some point of the north-east quarter, or nearly so: but it was probably thus named as being the wind that blows from the direction of the
شِمَال (or left side) of a person facing the rising sun; and therefore the north wind or a northerly wind:] it seldom, or never, blows in the night: (
K:) when it blows for seven days upon the people of Egypt, they prepare the graveclothes, for its nature is deadly: it is cold and dry: (
TA:) [see also نَكْبَآءُ:] the
pl. of
شَمَالٌ is
شَمَالَــاتٌ (
S,
O,
K) and شَمَائِلُ, which is
anomalous, as though
pl. of
شَمَالَــةٌ: (
S, O:) الأَشَامِل also occurs, coupled with الأَجَانِب, in a verse of Et-Tirimmáh; and [as أَجَانِبُ is a
reg. pl. of أَجْنُبٌ, which is a
pl. of جَنُوبٌ,]
ISd thinks that they formed from شَمْلٌ the
pl. أَشْمَلٌ; and then from this last, the
pl. أَشَامِلُ. (
TA.)
b2: [Hence,] one says, ↓ أَصَبْتُ مِنْ فُلَانٍ شَمَلًا i. e. رِيحًا [(assumed
tropical:) I perceived from such a one an odour,
app. meaning a foul odour]. (
TA.)
شِمَالٌ, (

S,
Msb,) The left;
contr. of يَمِينٌ; (
S,

K,
TA, [in the
CK, الـ
ـشَّمال and الـ
ـشّمال are erroneously put for الـ
ـشِّمَال and الشِّيمَال,]) the latter thought by
ISd to be used only by poetic license, for
شِمَالٌ, (
TA,) and ↓ شِمْلَالٌ, (
AA,
S,
O,
K,) this last not known to
Ks nor to
As: (
