accord. to
Er-Rághib, the time of a thing's arriving, or coming, and happening; having a vague meaning, and rendered particular, or special, by that to which it is prefixed: some say that it occurs applied in different ways: to an appointed term; as that to which God makes one to live: and a year; as in the

Kur xxx. 16: and to time absolutely:
accord. to El-Munáwee, in the [genuine] language of the Arabs, it is applied to [the time of] a glance of the eye, and more than that, to time without end: (
TA:) the
pl. is أَحْيَانٌ, (
S,
Msb,
K,) and

Mgh.) حِينَ in the phrase قُمْتُ حِينَ قُمْتَ [I stood in the time when thou stoodest, or I stood when thou stoodest,] is an adv.
n. of time; (
Msb;) [see also an
ex. in a verse cited
voce خَشَفَ, and the remarks there subjoined:] and one may well employ in its place لَمَّا and إِذَا (
Msb,
TA) and إِذْ and مَتَى and سَاعَةَ (
TA) and وَقْتَ (
Msb,
TA) and the like; but not, as many have said, حَيْثُ; for this is an adv.
n. of place. (
Msb.)
b2: When they make the two times to be distant, the one from the other, [i. e. the time of speaking and the time spoken of,] they do so by means of إذ, and thus, (
K,) they say حِينَئِذٍ
[meaning At that time; then]: (
S,
K:) and sometimes they suppress the ء, substituting for it ى. (
TA.)
b3: Sometimes, also, they prefix تَ to حِينَ; (
S,
TA;) and say لَا تَحِينَ, meaning It is not, or was not, a time [of such a thing; but this is generally written لَاتَ حِينَ]; as in the
Kur xxxviii. 2 [respecting which see art. ليت]. (
TA.) Aboo-Wejzeh Es-Saadee says, اَلْعَاطِفُونَ تَحِينَ مَا مِنْ عَاطِفٍ
وَالمُطْعِمُونَ زَمَانَ أَيْنَ المُطْعِوُ [The persons who return to the attack when there is none other that returns to the attack, (as is said in the
S and
L in art. عطف,) or it may mean who act affectionately in the time when there is none other that acts affectionately; as is said in the
L in that art.;) and the feeders in the time when it is said, Where is the feeder?]: (
S:)
ISd says that ت is thus prefixed to حين like as it is in تَلَانَ meaning الآنَ: but
IB says that Ibn-Es-
Seeráfee cites the former hemistich thus: اَلْعَاطِفُونَهْ حِينَ مَامِنْ عَاطِفٍ
[with the ه of pausation]: and some say that the ه of pausation is likened to the
fem. ة, and is then made movent with fet-h. (
TA. [See more in art. ليت.])

حِينَةُ نَاقَتِكَ, meaning When is the time of the milking of thy she-camel? and كَمْ حِينَتُهَا, meaning How many times is she milked? (
K.) One says also, of a man, (
S,) يَأْكُلُ الحِينَةَ and ↓ الحَيْنَةَ, meaning He eats once in the day and the night: (
S,
K:) or,
accord. to Aboo-'Amr Ez-
Záhid, الوَجْبَة is used as meaning a man's eating once in the day, and الحينة as meaning a she-camel's being milked once in the day. (
IB,
TA.) and one says, مَا أَلْقَاهُ إِلَّا الحِينَةَ بَعْدَ الحِينَةَ, i. e. الحِينَ

TA.) مِحْيَانٌ: see its
syn. حينٌ.
