ظن

1 ظَنَّ, aor. ـُ inf. n. ظَنٌّ, (Msb,) [He thought, opined, supposed, or conjectured: and he doubted: and he knew, but not by ocular perception: see ظَنٌّ below:] you say, ظَنَنْتُ الشَّىْءَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. ظَنٌّ; and ↓ اِظَّنَنْتُهُ and اِظْطَنَنْتُهُ; and ↓ تَظَنَّنْتُهُ and تَظَنَّيْتُهُ, this last formed by changing the last ن into ى: [i. e. I thought the thing, &c:] and Lh mentions, as heard from the Benoo-Suleym, ظَنْتُ ذَاكَ i. e. ظَنَنْتُ ذاك [I thought that, &c.] like ظَلْتُ and other instances of the dial. of Suleym. (M.) [In the first of the senses expl. above, it governs two objective complements, which are originally an inchoative and an enunciative:] you say, ظَنَنْتُكَ زَيْدًا [I thought thee Zeyd, originally I thought thou wast Zeyd], and ظَنَنْتُ زَيْدًا إِيَّاكَ [I thought Zeyd thee, originally I thought Zeyd was thou], denoting by a pronoun what is originally an inchoative [in the former phrase] and what is originally an enunciative [in the latter phrase]. (S, TA.) It is also used [in this sense] in the same manner as a verb signifying an oath, the Arabs giving it the same kind of complement, saying, ظَنَنْتُ لَعَبْدُ اللّٰهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْكَ [I thought surely 'Abd-Allah was better than thou]. (S in art. درد.) [ظَنَّ بِهِ كَذَا means I thought of him, or it, such a thing: and I thought such a thing to be in him, or it: and is used in relation to good and to evil.] It is said in the Kur [xxxiii. 10], وَتَطُنُّونَ بِاللّٰهِ الظُّنُونَا [and ye were thinking, of God, various thoughts]. (M.) Accord. to Sb, ظَنَنْتُ بِهِ means I made him, or it, the place [i. e. object] of my ظَنّ [or thought, &c.]. (M.) [In all these exs. the verb denotes a state of mind between doubt and certainty, but the latter is predominant: and hence ظَنَّ sometimes means He doubted: and sometimes, he knew, by considering with endeavour to understand, not by ocular perception; being more frequently used in this sense than as meaning “ he doubted,” though not so frequently as it is in the sense of “ he thought,” whence the meaning “ he knew ” is held by some to be tropical.] إِنَّى, ظَنَنْتُ أَنِّى مُلَاقٍ حِسَابِيَهْ, in the Kur [lxix. 20], means Verily I knew [that I should meet with my reckoning]. (T.) And الَّذِينَ يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّهُمْ مُلَاقُو رَبِّهِمْ, in the same [ii. 43], means Who know [that they shall meet their Lord, lit., be meeters of their Lord]. (Msb.) And ظَنَنْتُ مَا قَالَ, occurring in a trad., means I knew [what he meant to say by his making a sign with his hand]. (TA.) b2: ظَنَنْتُهُ, (M, Mgh, Msb,) aor. as above, (Msb,) and so the inf. n., (M,) signifies also I suspected him; thought evil of him; (M, Mgh, Msb;) and (M) so ↓ اِظَّنَنْتُهُ (S, M, Mgh, K) and اِظْطَنَنْتُهُ (M, TA) and اِطَّنَنْتُهُ. (TA.) [Thus, too, ↓ أَظْنَنْتُهُ accord. to several copies of the S and accord. to the CK; but this is app. a mistranscription.] In the saying of Ibn-Seereen, لَمْ فِى قَتْلِ عُثْمَانَ ↓ يَكُنْ عَلِىٌّ يُظَّنُّ, (T, S, K, but in the T مَا كَان,) meaning Alee was not suspected [in the case of the slaying of 'Othmán], (T,) يُظَّنُّ is of the measure يُفْتَعَلُ, originally يُظْتَنُّ: (T, S, K:) so says A'Obeyd: (T:) or, as some relate it, the word is يُطَّنُّ. (TA.) One says, بِكَذَا ↓ هُوَ يُظَّنُّ and يُطَّنُّ, meaning He is suspected of such a thing. (TA in art. طن.) and طَنَنْتُ بِزَيْدٍ and ظَنَنْتُ زَيْدًا I suspected Zeyd: in this sense the verb has a single objective complement. (TA.) 4 أَظْنَنْتُهُ الشَّىْءَ I made him to think the thing. (M, TA.) b2: And أَظْنَنْتُ بِهِ النَّاسَ [I made the people to suspect him: or] I exposed him to suspicion; (M, Msb, TA;) [and] so أَظنَنْتُهُ [alone]. (K.) b3: See also 1, last quarter.5 التَّظَنِّى means The exercising, employing, or using, of الظَّنّ [i. e. thought, &c.]; originally التَّظَنُّنُ. (S, K.) A'Obeyd says, تَظَنَّيْتُ is from ظَنَنْتُ, and is originally تَظَنَّنْتُ; the ن being many, one of them is changed into ى: it is like قَصَّيْتُ, which is originally قَصَّصْتُ. (T.) A2: See also 1, first sentence.8 إِظْتَنَ3َ see 1, first sentence: b2: and again, in the last quarter, in three places.

ظَنٌّ is a simple subst. as well as an inf. n.; (TA;) and signifies Thought, opinion, supposition, or conjecture: (Er-Rághib, Mgh, TA:) or a preponderant belief, with the admission that the contrary may be the case: (KT, El-Munáwee, TA:) or a preponderating wavering between the two extremes in indecisive belief: (K:) or an inference from a sign, or mark, or token; when strong, leading to knowledge; and when weak, not exceeding the limit of وَهْم: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or doubt or uncertainty; (T, M;) or it has this meaning also; (Er-Rághib, TA;) contr. of يَقِينٌ: (Msb:) and sometimes it is put in the place, (S, K,) or used in the sense, (Mgh, Msb,) of عِلْمٌ, (S, Mgh, K,) or يَقِينٌ, (Msb,) [i. e. knowledge, or certainty,] in which sense it is [held by some to be] tropical; (Mgh;) or it signifies also knowledge, or certainty, (يَقِينٌ, T, M,) such as is obtained by considering with endeavour to understand, not by ocular perception, (M,) or not such as relates to an object of sense: (MF:) and it also means suspicion, or evil opinion: (Er-Rághib, TA: [but in this last sense, ظِنَّةٌ is more common:]) as a subst., (TA,) its pl. is ظُنُونٌ and أَظَانِينُ, (M, K, TA,) the latter anomalous, or (as ISd says, TA) it may be pl. of ↓ أُظْنُونَةٌ, but this I do not know. (M, TA.) One says, هُوَ سَيِّئُ الظَّنِّ بِكُلِّ أَحَدٍ [He is evil in opinion of everyone]. (M.) [And سَآءَ ظَنُّهُ بِفُلَانٍ

His opinion of such a one was evil.] And عِلْمُهُ بِالشَّىْءِ ظُنُونٌ [His knowledge is but opinions]; meaning that no confidence is to be placed in him. (TA.) ظِنَّةٌ Suspicion, or evil opinion; (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also طِنَّةٌ; the ظ being changed into ط, though there is no إِدْغَام in this case, because of their being accustomed to say اِطَّنَّ [for اِظَّنَّ, which is for اِظْطَنَّ]; an instance like الدِّكْرُ, which is made to accord with اِدَّكَرَ [for اِذَّكَرَ, which is for اِذْدَكَرَ], as mentioned by Sb; (M;) and ↓ ظَنَانَةٌ, (so accord. to a copy of the M,) or ↓ ظِنَانَةٌ, like كِتَابَةٌ, (TA,) signifies the same: (M, TA:) the pl. of ظِنَّةٌ is ظِنَنٌ. (S, K.) One says, عِنْدَهُ ظِنَّتِى and هُوَ ظِنَّتِى, meaning He is the place [i. e. object] of my suspicion. (TA.) b2: And [hence] (assumed tropical:) A little [like the French “ soupçon ”] of a thing. (TA.) ظُنَنٌ: see ظَنَّانٌ.

ظَنُونٌ A man who thinks evil (S, M) of everyone. (M.) b2: A man possessing little good or goodness: or, as some say, of whom one asks [a thing] thinking that he will refuse, and who is as he was thought to be: (M:) [or] ↓ ظَنِينٌ has this latter meaning. (TA.) b3: A man in whose goodness no trust, or confidence, is to be placed. (M.) And Anything in which no trust, or confidence, is to be placed, (M, TA,) of water, and of other things; (TA;) as also ↓ ظَنِينٌ. (M, TA.) A well (بِئْرٌ) having little water, (S, M, K,) in the water of which no trust, or confidence, is to be placed: (M:) or a well, (S, K,) or a drinkingplace, (M,) of which one knows not whether there be in it water or not: (S, M, K:) or water which one imagines, or supposes, to exist, but of which one is not sure. (TA.) كُلُّ مَنِيَّةٍ ظَنُونٌ

إِلَّا القَتْلَ فِى سَبِيلِ اللّٰهِ is a saying mentioned, but not expl., by IAar; [app. meaning Every death is doubtful as to its consequence except slaughter in the way, or cause, of God; but ISd says,] in my opinion the meaning is that it is of little good and profit. (M.) دَيْنٌ ظَنُونٌ means A debt of which one knows not whether he who owes it will pay it or not: (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, * K:) it is said in a trad. of 'Omar that there is no poorrate in the case of such a debt. (TA.) b4: Also A man suspected in relation to his intellect, or intelligence. (Aboo-Tálib, TA.) And A woman suspected in relation to her grounds of pretension to respect, or honour, on account of lineage &c. (TA.) And A woman of noble rank or quality, who is taken in marriage, (M, K,) from a desire of obtaining off spring by her, when she is advanced in age. (M.) b5: Also A weak man. (K. [See also ظَنينٌ.]) b6: And A man having little artifice, cunning, ingenuity, or skill. (K.) ظَنِينٌ Suspected; (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) applied to a man; (S, M;) i. q. ↓ مَظْنُونٌ, (Mbr, Msb,) in this sense: (Msb:) pl. أَظِنَّآءُ. (M, TA.) Thus in the saying in the Kur [lxxxi. 24], وَمَا هُوَ عَلَى الْغَيْبِ بِظَنِينٍ, (T, M, Msb,) meaning And he is not suspected as to what he makes known from God, of the knowledge of that which is undiscoverable, as is related on the authority of 'Alee: or, accord. to Fr, it may mean weak; for ظَنِينٌ may have this meaning like as ظَنُونٌ has: (T:) some read بِضَنينٍ. (TA in art. ضن, q. v.) شَهَادَةُ ظَنِينٍ, which is said in a trad. to be not allowable, is The testimony of one who is suspected as to his religion. (TA.) And نَفْسٌ

↓ ظَنَّآءُ means [A soul, or person,] suspected. (TA.) b2: Also One who treats or regards another, or others, with enmity, or hostility; (T, M;) because of his evil opinion and the evil opinion of which he is an object. (M.) b3: See also ظَنُونٌ, in two places.

ظَنَّآءُ: see ظَنِينٌ.

ظَنَّانٌ One who opines, or conjectures, much [and] in an evil manner; as also ↓ ظُنَنٌ. (TA.) أَظَنُّ [Such as is more, or most, fit that one should think of him to do a thing]. You say, نَظَرْتُ إِلَى أَظَنِّهِمْ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ I looked towards him who was the most fit of them that I should think of him to do that. (M, TA.) أُظْنُونَةٌ: see ظَنٌّ, near the end.

مَظِنَّةٌ, (M, Mgh, Msb, TA,) of which مَظَنَّةٌ, mentioned by Ibn-Málik and others, and مِظَنَّةٌ, are dial. vars., (TA,) or [rather] مَظِنَّةُ شَىْءٍ, (IF, S, Msb, K, TA,) signifies The place, (IF, S, Msb, K, TA,) and the accustomed place, (IF, S, Msb, TA,) in which is thought to be the existence, (S, K, TA,) of a thing; (IF, S, Msb, K, TA;) [a place] where a thing is thought to be: (M:) or it signifies, (Mgh, Msb,) or signifies also, (S,) a place where a thing is known to be: (S, Mgh, Msb:) [a thing, and a person, in which, or in whom, a thing, or quality, is thought, supposed, presumed, suspected, inferred, known, or accustomed, to be, or exist:] accord. to IAth, by rule it should be مَظَنَّةٌ: (TA:) [it may therefore be properly rendered a cause of thinking, &c., the existence of a thing; and مَظِنَّةٌ لِكَذَا may be well expl. as meaning a thing, and a person, that occasions one's thinking, supposing, presuming suspecting, inferring, or knowing, the existence of such a thing or quality, in it, or in him: and hence, an indication, or evidence, or a symptom, diagnostic, characteristic, sign, mark, or token, of the existence of such a thing or quality:] the pl. is مَظَانُّ. (M, Mgh, Msb, TA.) One says, مَوْضِعُ كَذَا مَظِنَّةٌ مِنْ فُلَانٍ i. e. Such a place is a place in which such a one is known [&c.] to be. (S, TA.) And فُلَانٌ مَظِنَّةٌ مِنْ كَذَا i. e.

(Ham p. 437.) And En-Nábighah says, فَإِنْ يَكُ عَامِرٌ قَدْ قَالَ جَهْلًا فَإِنَّ مَظِنَّةَ الجَهْلِ الشَّبَابُ [And if 'Ámir has spoken ignorantly, verily youthfulness is a state in which ignorance is usually found to exist]: (S, Msb: *) or, as some relate the verse, السِّبَابُ [so that the meaning is, mutual reviling is an act in which &c.]: (S:) or, accord. to another relation, the latter hemistich is فَإِنَّ مَطِيَّةَ الجَهْلِ الشَّبَابُ (S, * TA;) because one finds it [i. e. youthfulness] to be easy like as he does the beast on which one rides. (TA.) And one says also, طَلَبَهُ مَظَانَّهُ [He sought him, or it, in the places where he, or it, was thought to be;] meaning, by night and by day. (TA.) And إِنَّهُ لَمَظِنَّةٌ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ i. e. Verily he is apt, meet, fitted, or suited, for one to think of his doing that: and in like manner one says of two, and of a pl. number, and of a female. (Lh, M.) مَظْنُونٌ [Thought, opined, &c.: see its verb: and] see ظَنِينٌ. Applied to a narrative, or story, it means [Doubted; or] of which one is not to be made to know the real state.

(M, L, TA.) 4 أَصَبُّوا They (a company of men, TA) took their way down a declivity, or declivous place.

And عَرَقًا ↓ تَصَبَّبْتُ [which may be rendered I flowed with sweat] is a phrase of the Arabs, meaning تصبّب عَرَقِى [my sweat flowed]: thus the act is literally ascribed to the speaker, and what is essentially the agent becomes a specificative: it is not allowable to say عَرَقًا تَصَبَّبْتُ; for, as it is not allowable to put the agent before the verb, so it is not allowable to put the specificative, when it is virtually the agent, before the verb.

(TA.) b4: And عَلَيْهِ البَلَآءُ ↓ صُبَّ, مِنْ صَبٍّ, meaning (tropical:) [Trial, or affliction, was poured upon him] from above. (A, TA.) A2: Also, applied to a man, Affected with excessive love, or with attachment, or admiring love, (IAar, S, A, * TA,) and desire: (S:) or with desire: (M, A, * K:) or with tenderness of desire, (S, * M, A, * K,) and ardour thereof: (S: * [see صَبَّ:]) or with tenderness of love. (M, K.) One says, هُوَ صَبٌّ بِهَا (and إِلَيْهَا (see صَبَّ)] He is affected with excessive love of her; &c.: (A:) fem. صَبَّةٌ: (M, K:) dual masc. صَبَّانِ, pl. masc. صَبُّونَ; dual. fem. صَبَّتَانِ, pl. fem. صَبَّاتٌ: thus accord. to those who hold رَجُلٌ صَبٌّ to be similar to رَجُلٌ فَهِمٌ and حَذِرٌ, originally صَبِبٌ: (TA:) [hence it appears that some hold صَبٌّ to be originally an inf. n., and therefore use it as an epithet in its original form, without regard to gender or number: but] accord. to Sb, صَبٌّ is [originally] of the measure فَعِلٌ, because you say صَبِبْتُ صَبَابَةً, like as you say قَنِعْتُ قَنَاعَةً. (M.) See also 1, last sentence.

صُبٌّ: see صُبَّةٌ. b2: Accord. to AO, it may also be pl. of ↓ صَبُوبٌ or of ↓ صَابٌّ: but Az says that, accord. to others, it is not pl. of either of these two words; their pl. being صُبُبٌ: (L, TA:) it is said in a trad., (S, L, TA,) respecting conflicts and factions, or seditions, (L, TA,) لَتَعُودُنَّ فِيهَا أَسَاوِدَ صُبًّا يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ: (S, L, TA:) here by أَسَاوِد are meant “ [great and noxious] serpents: ” (L, TA:) and صُبًّا, accord. to Ez-Zuhree, is from الصَّبُّ [“ the act of pouring out or forth ”]; for the serpent, he says, when it desires to bite, raises itself, and then darts down (lit. pours down) upon him that is bitten: (S, L, TA:) [as though the meaning were, Ye will be, therein, like great and noxious serpents, one portion of you smiting the necks of another portion:] Ez-Zuhree says that صُبًّا is pl. of ↓ صَبُوبٌ, and originally صُبُبًا; like as رَجُلٌ صَبٌّ is originally صَبِبٌ; and so says IAmb: but IAar is related to have said that أَسَاوِد means companies, pl. of سَوَادٌ; and صُبًّا, pouring, one upon another, with slaughter: and some say that it is صُبَّى, in measure like حُبْلَى; and it is said to be from صَبَا, [for صَبَا إِلَى الدُّنْيَا,] aor. ـْ meaning “ he inclined to the things of the present world; ” and thus to be like غُزَّى, pl. of غَازٍ: [see صَابٍ, in art. صبو:] IAar used also to say that it is originally صُبَّأً, with ء, [pl. of صَابِئٌ,] from صَبَأً عَلَيْهِ “ he came, or came forth, upon him unexpectedly. ” (L, TA.) صُبَّةٌ A quantity of wheat or food, &c., that is poured out or forth (M, K) together, or collectedly; (M;) also (M, K) sometimes (M) termed ↓ صُبٌّ. (M, K.) See also 1, near the beginning. b2: And A سُفْرَة [or piece of skin in which the traveller puts his food; or the thing upon which one eats]; (M, K;) so called because the food is poured into it, or upon it: (M:) or a thing like the سُفْرَة: (M, K:) and صُنَّةٌ, with ن, signifies the same. (M.) b3: See also صُبَابَةٌ, with which it is syn. b4: Also A company of men: (M, Msb, K:) [app. tropical; but it is said that] this is the primary meaning, and it is used in relation to camels, and sheep or goats, and the like, tropically. (TA.) b5: (tropical:) A detached number of horses, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) and of camels, (A, K,) and of sheep or goats, (A, Msb, K,) and of dirhems, or pieces of money: (A:) or from ten to forty: (A, K:) or from twenty to thirty and forty of camels and of sheep or goats: or less than a hundred (M, A, K) of camels: (M, K:) or of camels i. q. صِرْمَةٌ: (S:) and from ten to forty of goats: (Az, S:) or a flock of sheep or a herd of goats, as being likened to a company of men: (TA:) or from twenty to forty of sheep and of goats; or peculiarly of goats: or about fifty: or from sixty to seventy: and of camels about five or six: (IAth, TA:) and a collection of dirhems, or pieces of money, and of wheat, or food, &c.: and a piece of a thing: (Msb:) [or] a small quantity or portion of wealth or property. (M, K.) b6: And (assumed tropical:) A part, or portion, of the night: so in the saying, مَضَتْ صُبَّةٌ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ (assumed tropical:) [A part, or portion, of the night passed]. (S.) صَبَبٌ The descent, (تَصَوُّب, M, L, TA, in the K erroneously written تَصَبُّب, TA,) of a river, or rivulet, or channel of water, or of a road, down a declivity. (M, L, K, TA.) b2: And A declivity, declivous place, or ground sloping down; (M, A, K, TA;) and (TA) so ↓ صَبِيبٌ, of which the pl. is أَصْبَابٌ; (S, TA;) so too ↓ صَبُوبٌ and ↓ صُبُوبٌ, with fet-h and with damm; (TA;) [i. e.] ↓ الصَّبُوبُ signifies that down which you descend, or have descended, (مَا انْصَبَبْتَ فِيهِ,) and its pl. is صُبُبٌ [like عُمُدٌ pl. of عَمُودٌ]; (M, TA;) [and so ↓ الصُّبُوبُ;] or, as some say, ↓ الصَّبُوبُ, with fet-h, is a name for the water, &c., that is poured out upon a man, like طَهُورٌ and غَسُولٌ; and ↓ صُبُوبٌ, with damm, is pl. of صَبَبٌ: but Az mentions his having heard the Arabs apply ↓ صَبُوبٌ to a declivity, or declivous place; and says that its pl. is صُبُبٌ: (TA:) and الصَّبَبُ مِنَ الرَّمْلِ signifies what has poured out or forth or down, of sand: (M, K: *) and the pl. of صَبَبٌ is أَصْبَابٌ. (M, K.) صُبَابٌ: see صُبَابَةٌ.

صَبُوبٌ [app. syn. with ↓ صَابٌّ as part. n. of the intrans. verb صَبَّ, signifying Pouring out or forth or down; or like the latter but having an intensive meaning]: see صُبٌّ, in two places. b2: See also صَبَبٌ, in four places.

صُبُوبٌ: see صَبَبٌ, in three places.

صَبِيبٌ [Poured out or forth: (see also صَبٌّ, first sentence:) or, as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates,] water poured out or forth; syn. ↓ مَآءٌ مَصْبُوبٌ. (M, K.) b2: and (M, K) some say (M) Blood: (S, M, K:) and sweat; (K;) as in the saying, هَوَاجِرُ تَحْتَلِبُ الصَّبِيبَا [Vehement midday-heats that draw forth the sweat]: (TA:) [or what is poured forth of sweat and of blood; for] one says, جَرَى صَبِيبُ العَرَقِ and الدَّمِ [What was poured forth, of the sweat and of the blood, ran, or flowed]. (A.) b3: and (M, K) some say (M) The expressed juice of عَنْدَم [or dragon's blood]. (M, K.) b4: And (M, K) some say (M) A certain red dye.

(Meyd, TA. *) In the following verse, cited by IAar, وَلَيْلٍ هَدَيْتُ بِهِ فِتْيَةً

الكَرَى الأَغْيَدِ ↓ سُقُوا بِصُبَابِ (tropical:) [During many a night have I guided in the right way young men infused with the remains of drowsiness that made them to bend their necks from side to side], صُبَاب may be put for صُبَابَة; or it may be pl. of the latter, [or rather a coll. gen. n. of which صُبَابَة is the n. un.,] like as شَعِيرٌ is of شَعِيرَةٌ: the poet uses this word metaphorically, in relation to drowsiness, like as he has used the word سُقُوا. (M, L, TA.) One says also لَمْ أُدْرِكْ مِنَ العَيْشِ إِلَّا صُبَابَةً and إِلَّا صُبَابَاتٍ (tropical:) [I did not attain, or obtain, of life, save a small remainder and small remains].

(Msb, K. [In the latter, صَخْرٌ and صَخَرٌ, as well as صُخُورٌ and صَخَرَاتٌ, are improperly termed pls. of صخرة.]) By صَخْرَة in the Kur xxxi. 15 is meant a صخرة that is beneath the ground.
