(S, O.) [See also 8 below.] عُصْرَ is used as a contraction of عُصِرَ. (S, O.) b2: [Hence,] عَصَرَ الثَّوْبَ, inf. n. as above, He wrung out the water of the garment, or piece of cloth; he forced out its water by wringing it. (Msb.) b3: And عَصَرَ الدُّمَّلَ لِتَخْرُجَ مِدَّتُهُ [He squeezed, or pressed, the pustule in order that its thick purulent matter might come forth]. (Msb.) b4: And عَصَرَ حَلْقَهُ [He squeezed his throat]. (Mgh and Msb in art. خنق.) b5: and عَصَرَ, aor. ـِ (assumed tropical:) He took, or collected, the produce of the earth: from the same verb in the first of the senses expl. above: and hence, accord. to Abu-l-Ghowth, in the Kur [xii. 49], وَفَيهِ يَعْصِرُونَ (assumed tropical:) And in it they shall take, or collect, the produce of the earth: (S:) or the meaning is, and in it they shall press grapes, or olives, or the like: or they shall milk the udders. (Bd.) [And there are other explanations, which see below.]

A2: عُصِرُوا, (S, IKtt, O,) or ↓ أُعْصِرُوا, (O, K,) They were rained upon; they had rain; syn. مُطِرُوا, (S, O,) or أُمْطِرُوا [which is less correct]. (IKtt, K.) Hence, in the Kur [ubi suprà], accord. to one reading, وَفِيهِ يُعْصَرُونَ [And in it they shall have rain]. (S, O.) [See also above, and below.]

A3: عَصَرَهُ also signifies He saved him; preserved him: and hence, in the Kur [ubi suprà], accord. to one reading, وَفِيهِ يُعْصَرُونَ [And in it they shall be saved, or preserved]. (Bd.) b2: Hence also, perhaps, the other reading, وَفِيهِ يُعْصِرُونَ And in it they shall aid, or succour, one another. (Bd.) b3: See also 8, last quarter, in two places.

A4: Also, عَصَرَهُ, (O, TA,) inf. n. عَصْرٌ, (O, K, TA,) It [or he] withheld, hindered, or prevented, him: (O, K, * TA:) one says, مَا عَصَرَكَ What withheld, hindered, or prevented, thee? (O, TA.)

Thus it has two contr. significations. (IKtt, TA.) Tarafeh says, لَوْ كَانَ فِى أَمْلَاكِنَا أَحَدٌ يَعْصِرُ فِينَا كَالَّذِى تَعْصِرُ (S, O, TA, but in the S with مَلِكٌ in the place of أَحَدٌ,) i. e. [If there were, or would that there were, among our kings one] giving to us the like of what thou givest: (TA:) and another reading is, مِثْلَ مَا تَعْصِرُ; (O;) and it is expl. (by A'Obeyd, TA) as meaning, doing to us benefits (O, TA) like as thou dost: (O:) but Aboo-Sa'eed relates it thus; يُعْصَرُ فِينَا كالَّذِى تُعْصَرُ i. e. يُصَابُ مِنْهُ [app. from عَصَرَ signifying “ he pressed ” grapes and the like; and thus meaning, (assumed tropical:) from whom is gotten, among us, like what is gotten from thee; or, as it may be less freely rendered, who has his bounty drawn forth, among us, like as thou hast thine drawn forth]; and he disallowed the reading [يَعْصِرُ and] تَعْصِرُ. (TA.) See also 8, first quarter.

A5: See also 4, second sentence: b2: and last two sentences.

A6: And see the paragraph here following.2 عَصَّرَ see 1: A2: and see also 4, second sentence.

A3: عصّر الزَّرْعُ, inf. n. تَعْصِيرٌ; (K, TA;) but in the Tekmileh written الزَّرْعُ ↓ عَصَرَ, without teshdeed; (TA;) The corn put forth its glumes: (K, TA:) app. from عَصَرٌ meaning “ a place of protection: ”

i. e. [the rudiments of its ears] became protected in its glumes. (TA.) 3 عاصر فُلَانًا, inf. n. مُعَاصَرَةٌ and عِصَارٌ, He was contemporary with such a one: or he attained to, or reached, the time of such a one. (O, TA.) Hence the saying, المُعَاصَرَةُ مُعَاسَرَةٌ وَالمُعَاصِرُ لَا يُنَاصِرُ [The being contemporary is an occasion of hard, or harsh, treatment; and the contemporary will not render reciprocal aid to his fellow]. (TA. [But I have substituted معاسرة for معاصرة, which latter seems to have been written by mistake for the former.]) A2: See also 8, last quarter.4 اعصر He (a man, TA) entered upon the time called العَصْر: (K, TA:) and also he entered upon the evening, or last part of the day; like اقصر. (TA.) b2: And اعصرت, (S, Msb, K,) and ↓ عصّرت, (K,) so in all the copies of the K, but in a copy of the Tahdheeb of IKtt ↓ عَصَرَتْ, without tesh-deed, (TA,) (tropical:) She (a girl, S, Msb, or woman, K) attained the عَصْر of her youth, (TA,) or [simply] attained the period of her youth, (K,) and arrived at the age of puberty: (K, TA:) or entered upon the time of puberty, and began to have the menstrual discharge; (S, O;) because of her womb's being pressed; (O;) or as though she entered upon the عَصْر of her youth: (S, O, TA:) or she attained the age of puberty: (S, IKtt:) or she had the menstrual discharge: (Msb:) or she entered upon the time of that discharge: (K:) or she approached that time; for, said of a girl, it is like رَاهَقَ said of a boy; accord. to Abu-lGhowth el-Aarábee: (S:) or she approached the age of twenty: (K:) or she became confined in the house, (K,) and had a retreat (عَصَرٌ) appointed for her, (TA,) at the time of her having the menstrual discharge: (K:) or she brought forth; (K;) in which sense it is of the dial. of Azd. (TA.) The woman, or girl, is termed ↓ مُعْصِرٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and ↓ مُعْصِرَةٌ, with ة: (IDrd, O, TA:) pl. مَعاصِرٌ (S, K) and مَعَاصِيرُ. (K.) A2: أَعْصَرَتِ السَّحَائِبُ (assumed tropical:) The clouds were at the point of having rain pressed forth from them by the winds. (O, and Bd in lxxviii. 14.

[See the act. part. n., below.] b3: And اعتصر بِالمَآءِ (assumed tropical:) He swallowed the water by little and little in order that some food by which he was choked might be made to descend easily in his throat. (S, O, K.) b4: And اعتصر مَالَهُ (tropical:) He extracted, or extorted, his property from his hand, or possession: (S, Msb, TA:) from the same verb as syn. with عَصَرَ expl. in the beginning of this art.: (Msb:) he took forth his property for a debt or for some other reason: (K, * TA:) and اعتصر, (assumed tropical:) he took; (K;) as also ↓ عَصَرَ, aor. ـِ (TA:) (assumed tropical:) he took of, or from, a thing: (TA:) (assumed tropical:) he got, and took, of, or from, a thing: (S, as implied in an explanation of the act. part. n.:) (assumed tropical:) he got a thing from a person: (L:) or, accord. to El-'Itreefee, (assumed tropical:) he took the property of his son for himself; or he suffered the property of his son to remain in his (the latter's) possession: you do not say اعتصر فُلَانٌ مَالَ فُلَانٍ [such a one took for himself the property of such a one] unless he be a relation to him: [you say so of a father:] and of a boy you say, اعتصر مَالَ أَبِيهِ, meaning, (assumed tropical:) he took the property of his father. (TA.) [See اعتسر.] And بِالمَالِ ↓ اعتصر العَصَّارُ [or المَالَ?

(A, TA.) b5: Also اعتصر, (tropical:) He took back a gift: (A, Mgh, L, TA:) in the K, the inf. n. is expl. by اِنْتِجَاعُ العَطِيَّةِ; but in the L, the verb is expl. by اِرْتَجَعَ العَطِيَّةَ, [and in like manner in the A and Mgh,] and رَجَعَ فِيهَا: (TA:) (assumed tropical:) he revoked, recalled, or retracted, the gift; syn. اِرْتَجَعَ, (Mgh, O,) and اِسْتَرَدَّ. (Mgh.) Hence the trad. of 'Omar, الوَالِدُ يَعْتَصِرُ وَلَدَهُ فِيمَا

أَعْطَاهُ وَلَيْسَ لِلْوَلَدِ أَنْ يَعْتَصِرَ مِنْ وَالِدِهِ, i. e., (tropical:) The father may take from his child what he has given him; [but it is not for the child to take from his father what he has given him.] (Mgh, O.) But as to the trad. of Esh-Shaabee, يَعْتَصِرُ الوَالِدُ عَلَى

وَلَدِهِ فِى مَالِهِ [(tropical:) The father may take back what he has given to his child], the verb is made trans. by means of على because it implies the meaning of يَرْجِعُ عَلَيْهِ, and يَعُودُ عَلَيْهِ: (IAth, Mgh, O: *) or this latter trad. means, the father may forbid his child his property, and withhold it from him: (S:) and [in like manner] the former trad., the father may withhold his child from giving his property, and forbid it to him: (TA:) for اعتصر also signifies he prevented, hindered, withheld, or refused; syn. مَنَعَ. (K, TA.) Hence, اِعْتِصَارُ الصَّدَقَةِ [The withholding, or refusing, the poorrate]. (TA.) [See also 1.] b6: اعتصر also signifies (assumed tropical:) He was niggardly, or avaricious, (K, TA,) عَلَيْهِ towards him. (TA.)

In the Kur [xii. 49], ↓ وَفِيهِ تُعْصَرُونَ [sic], which is one reading, is expl. by Lth as signifying And in it ye shall have recourse for refuge, or protection; but Az disapproves of this: (TA:) [the common reading] وفيه يَعْصِرُونَ, accord. to AO, (so in one copy of the S,) or A'Obeyd, (as in another copy of the S,) signifies and in it they shall be safe; from عُصْرَةٌ signifying “ a cause, or means, of safety: ” (S:) or they shall be safe from trial, or affliction, and shall preserve themselves by plenty, or fruitfulness. (TA.) عَصْرٌ [which is the most common form] and ↓ عُصُرٌ (S, A, O, Msb, K) and ↓ عُصْرٌ (S, A, O, K) and ↓ عِصْرٌ (A, O, K) i. q. دَهْرٌ [as meaning Time; or a time; or a space or period of time]; (S, A, O, Msb, K;) or any unlimited extent of time, during which peoples pass away and become extinct; (Esh-Shiháb, in the “ Sharh esh-Shifè; ”) [a succession of ages:] such is said by Fr to be its meaning in the Kur ciii. l: (TA:) pl. (of pauc., O) أَعْصُرٌ (O, K) and أَعْصَارٌ; (K;) and [of mult.] عُصُورٌ (S, O, K) and عُصُرٌ. (K.) You say, مَا فَعَلْتُهُ عَصْرًا, and بِعَصْرٍ, I did it not in its time. (A.) And ↓ جَآءُ لٰكِنَّ لَمْ يَجِئْ لِعُصْرٍ He came, but he came not at the [proper] time of coming. (Az, O, K: but Az relates it without لكنّ. TA.)

And نَامَ فُلَانٌ وَلَمْ يَنَمْ عَصْرًا, and بِعَصْرٍ, Such a one slept, but slept not during a [considerable period of] time, or day; (A;) agreeably with other significations, here following.

(Katádeh, O.) b3: A day: (K:) [or day, as opposed to night:] and a night: (K:) [or night, as opposed to day:] also the morning, before, or after, sunrise; syn. غَدَاةٌ: and the afternoon; or evening; or last part of the day; until the sun becomes red; as also ↓ عَصَرٌ, (IDrd, K.) Hence, العَصْرَانِ The night and the day: (O, TA:) or night and day: (Msb:) and the morning, before, or after, sunrise, and the afternoon or evening; or the first part of the day and the last part thereof: الغَدَاةُ وَالعَشِىُّ.

وَيَرْضَى بِنِصْفِ الدَّيْنِ وَالأَنْفُ رَاغِمُ [And I put him off, delaying the payment of his debt, morning and evening, or from morning to evening, so that he loathes me, and is content with half of the debt, though unwilling]: meaning, when he comes to me in the first part of the day, I promise to pay him in the last part of it: (ISk, S:) or, accord. to Sgh, the right reading (instead of والانف راغم) is فِى غَيْرِ نَائِلِ [without liberality]: and the verse is by 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Ez-Zubeyr El-Asadee. (TA.) b4: Hence also (S, O) صَلَاةُ العَصْرِ, (S, O, Msb,) and ↓ صلاة العَصَرِ, (O, TA,) fem. only, and simply العَصْرُ, [and ↓ العَصَرُ,] mase. and fem., (Msb,) [The prayer of afternoon; the time of which commences about mid-time between noon and nightfall; or accord. to the Shá-fi'ees, Málikees, and Hambelees, when the shade of an object, cast by the sun, is equal to the length of that object, added to the length of the shade which the same object casts at noon; and accord. to the Hanafees, when the shadow is equal to twice the length of the object added to the length of its mid-day shadow: its end being sunset, or the time when the sun becomes red:] so called because performed in one of the عَصْرَانِ, i. e., in the last portion of the day: (O:) also called الصَّلَاةُ الوَسْطَى [accord. to some], because it is between the two prayers of the day [that of daybreak and that of noon] and the two prayers of the night [that of sunset and that of nightfall]: (Abu-l-'Abbás:) pl.

[of pane.] is غِزْلَةٌ and [of mult.] غِزْلانٌ. (S, O, Msb, K.) A2: غَزَالُ شَعْبَانَ A certain insect (دُوَيْبَّةٌ), (K, TA,) a species of the [locusts, or locust-like insects, called]

A2: الغَزَالَةُ, also, signifies The sun; (S, O, K;) because it extends [what resemble] cords, [meaning its rays,] as though it were spinning: (K:) or the sun when rising; (Msb, K;) [therefore] one says طَلَعَتِ الغَزَالَةُ, but not غَرَبَتِ الغَزَالَةُ: (TA:) or the sun when high: (M, * K, TA:) or the عَيْن [meaning the disk, or, as it sometimes means, the rays, or beams,] of the sun.

KL:) Fr says that ↓ مُغْزَلٌ is the original form, from أُغْزِلَ “ it was made to turn round ” or “ revolve ” [or “ was twirled ”]; (S, TA;) but the dammeh was deemed by the Arabs difficult of pronunciation, and therefore they said مِغْزَلٌ, and in like manner مِصْحَفٌ and مِخْدَعٌ and مِجْسَدٌ and مِطْرَفٌ: accord. to IAth, مِغْزَلٌ signifies the instrument [with which one spins]; and ↓ مَغْزَلٌ, the place of the غَزْل [which means the act of spinning and the span thread or yard]; and ↓ مُغْزَلٌ, the place in which (فِيهِ [or this may here mean upon which]) the غَزْل [i. e. spun thread or yarn] is put: (TA:) pl. مَغَازِلُ. (MA.) أَعْرى مِنْ مِغْزَلٍ is a prov. [meaning More naked than a spindle]. (Meyd.) And one says, صَاحِبُ الغَزَلِ أَضَلُّ مِنْ سَاقِ مِغْزَلٍ

[The practiser of the talk and actions &c. usual between the lover and the object of love is more erring than the shank (i. e. pin) of a spindle), of which the error is its [aiding in] clothing mankind while it is [itself] naked. (A, TA.) b2: It is said in a book of certain of the Jews, عَلَيْكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَرُبْعُ المِغْزَلِ, meaning [I pon you lie as due from you such and such things and) the fourth part of what your women have spun. (TA.) b3: And [the pl.] مَغَازِلُ signifies The عَمَد (O) or عُمُد (K) [app. meaning the upright wooden supports of the seat] of the [machine called] نَوْرَج [q. v.] with which the reaped grain heaped together is thrashed. (O, K.) مِغْزَلِىٌّ (MA) and ↓ مَغَازِلِىٌّ (S and K voce مِصْرَمٌ) A parer of spindles. (MA.) مُغَيْزِلٌ A slender cord (حَبْلٌ دَقِيقٌ) [so in copies of the K, and in the CK, but in the latter المُغْتَزَلُ is put for المُغَيْزِلُ: in my MS. copy of the K, المُغَيْزِلُ جَبَلٌ دَقِيقٌ, and this I think to be the correct reading. meaning El-Mugheyzil is a certain slender mountain]: ISd says, I think it to be likened to the مِغْزَل, because of its slenderness; adding that El-Hirmázee has mentioned it. (TA. [A verse cited by El-Hirmázee is there given as an ex.; mentioning the day of المُغَيْزِل, app. as the day of the separation of a lover from his beloved; and it is a common custom of the Arabs to call the day of an event the day of the place where it occurred.]) مَغَازِلِىٌّ: see مِغْزَلِىٌّ.
