(T. [See also another explanation in what follows.]) b2: [رَمَى بِسَلْحِهِ He cast forth his excrement, or ordure, or properly, in a thin state, is a phrase of frequent occurrence.] b3: You say also, رَمَيْتُ بِالسَّهْمِ [I shot the arrow], inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ.

though some make it to mean [رَمَى عَنْهَا or] رَمَى

عَلَيْهَا, making the ب to be instead of عن or على. (Msb.) b4: And رَمَى القَنَصَ, (S, M,) or الصَّيْدَ, [He shot, or shot at, the animal, or animals, of the chase,] inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ, (Msb,) or رَمْىٌ, and none other. (M.)

(ISk, T, S, M.) b5: [Hence,] one says, in cursing a person, رَمَى اللّٰهُ فِى يَدِهِ, and أَنْفِهِ, (assumed tropical:) [May God aim at, and smite, with some bane, or malady, his hand, or arm, and his nose,] and in like manner in relation to other members. (M, K. *) [And رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِكَذَا, sometimes meaning (assumed tropical:) God smote him, or afflicted him, with such a thing: but generally, may God smite him, or afflict him, with such a thing; as in the saying,] رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِدَآءِ الذِّئْبِ (assumed tropical:) [May God smite him, or afflict him, with the disease of the wolf]; a prov., meaning may God destroy him, or cause him to perish; because [it is said that] the wolf has no disease but death: or, as some say, the meaning is, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِالجُوعِ [may God afflict him with hunger]; because the wolf is always hungry. (Meyd.) and رَمَاهُ بِدَاهِيَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [He (God) sent upon him, or against him,. or smote him with, a calamity: and also] (assumed tropical:) he (a man) made a very sagacious and crafty and politic man to be his assailant. (L in art. حجر. [See also, in that art., رُمِىَ فُلَانٌ بِحَجِرِ الأَرْضِ, and بِحَجَرِهِ.]) [And رَمَاهُ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He assailed him with such a thing; as, for instance, reproach, and an argument, &c.

And رَمَاهُ alone (assumed tropical:) He accused him, or suspected him.] And رَمَاهُ بِالحَقِّ (assumed tropical:) [He accused him with truth]. (L in art. قرح, in explanation of قَرَحَهُ بِالحَقِّ.) [And رَمَاهُ بِلِسَانِهِ (assumed tropical:) He spoke against him.] b6: رَمَى اللّٰهُ لَكَ means (tropical:) May God aid thee, or aid thee against thine enemy, and work [good] for thee: (AO, S, TA: *) and رَمَى اللّٰهُ لَهُ (tropical:) God aided him, or aided him against his enemy, (AAF, M, K, TA,) and wrought [good] for him: (AAF, M, TA:) and [it is said that] the verb has this meaning in the words of the Kur, وَمَا رَمَيْتَ إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمَى

[of which other explanations have been given above]; because, when God aids a person against his enemy, He aims at, and smites, (يَرْمِى,) that enemy. (M, TA.) [In like manner, also, فُلَانٌ يَرْمِى مِنْ وَرَآءِ فُلَانٍ means (assumed tropical:) Such a one defends such a one.] b7: رُمِيتُ بِكَذَا (tropical:) I had such a thing offered, or presented, to me, the meeting with it being appointed, or prepared; [I had it as it were thrown to me, or thrown in my way; as though I were thrown at therewith;] like نُبِذْتُ بِهِ.

(TA in art. جنز.) b12: [رَمَى also app. means (assumed tropical:) He (a governor) imposed an impost upon his subjects: see رَمِيَّةٌ.]

b13: And رَمَى, aor. ـْ means also (assumed tropical:) He misconjectured; thought wrongly; or formed a wrong opinion: (IAar, T:) [and app. he threw out a conjecture: or he spoke conjecturally; for Az adds,] it is like the phrase رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ [or رَجَمَ بِالغَيْبِ or قَالَ رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ]. (T.) b14: رَمَى السَّحَابُ: see 6. b15: رَمَى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ: see 4.

A2: رَمُوَ is a verb of the same kind as قَضُوَ and هَيُؤَ, [invariable as to person, time, and mood,] and means Excel-lent [or how excellent] is he in his throwing, or shooting!

I competed, or contended, with him, in throwing, or shooting, and in shooting arrows: and رَامَيْتُهُ alone often means رَامَيْتُهُ بِالحِجَارَةِ, or بِالسِّهَامِ; whence it is said that] مُرَامَاةٌ signifies the shooting arrows, and throwing stones, with any one. (KL.) It is said in a prove., respecting an affair in which one is forward before doing it, قَبْلَ الرِّمَآءِ تُمْلَأُ الكَنَائِنُ [Before shooting arrows with another, or doing so in competition or contention, the quivers are to be filled]. (A 'Obeyd, T.) 4 أَرْمَىَ see 1, first sentence, in seven places: b2: and see also 6.

A2: ارمى, (M, Mgh,) inf. n. إِرْمَآءٌ, (Mgh,) also signifies It (a thing, Mgh) exceeded. (M, Mgh.) You say, ارمى عَلَيْهِ It (anything) exceeded it, namely, another thing. (M.)

(T.) And hence, (T,) you say, ارمى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ, i. e. He exceeded [the age of fifty]; (Az, A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K;) [like اربى;] as also ↓ رَمَى; (Az, T, S, M, K;) [for] رَمْىٌ signifies the exceeding in age: and one says also أَرْمَأَ and رَمَأَ in the same sense. (IAar, T.) and ارمى فُلَانٌ signifies the same as أَرْبَى [meaning Such a one took usury or the like]. (S.) See also رَمَآءٌ, below. You say also, سَابَّهُ فَأَرْمَى عَلَيْهِ, i. e. [He reciprocated reviling, or vilifying, with him, and] he exceeded him. (S.) 5 ترمّى He shot, or cast, at the butts, and at the trunks of trees.

الظَّفَرِ; or إِلَى الخِذْلَانِ; i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His affair, or case,] came eventually [to the attainment of what was desired, or sought; or to abandonment by God]. (T, K, TA.) Hence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., of Zeyd Ibn-Háritheh, سُبِىَ فِى الجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَتَرَامَى الأَمْرُ أَنْ صَارَلِخَدِيجَةَ, (T, TA,) i. e.

It fell to the ground: so in the saying, ارتمى الحِمْلُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ [The load fell to the ground, or it may mean was thrown down, from the back of the camel]. (T.) b2: Also He shot, or shot at, an animal, or animals, of the chase. (T, S, M.) b3: See also 6, in three places.

رَمْيَةٌ A single throw, or cast, or fling: and a single shot: (Mgh, Msb, TA:) pl. رَمَيَاتٌ. (Msb, TA.) رُبَّ رَمْيَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ رَامٍ [Many a hitting shot, or scarce any hitting shot, is there without a skilled shooter] is a prov. [applied to the case of an unexpected success obtained by an inexperienced person;] meaning many a [hitting] shot, or scarce any [hitting] shot, originates from a shooter that [usually] misses. (Meyd) رَمَآءٌ, (S, IAth, K, in a copy of the T and in a copy of the S without any vowel-sign,) with fet-h and medd, (IAth, and so in a copy of the S, in which it is added that it is said by Ks to be with medd,) like سَمَآءٌ; (K;) or ↓ رِمَآءٌ; (Mgh, and so in a copy of the T;) or ↓ رِمًا, said by Lh to be formed by substitution [of م for ب, as is shown by what follows]; (M;) An excess, or an addition; i. e., (A 'Obeyd, T, Mgh,) i. q. رِبًا, (A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K,) or رِبًوا, (Mgh, and thus written in some copies of the S and K, or in most of the copies of the K, [meaning usury, and the like,]) or an excess, or addition, over what is lawful. (T, IAth.) Hence the trad. of 'Omar, لَا تَبِيعُوا, (A 'Obeyd, T,) or he said لَا تَشْتَرُوا, (S,) الذَّهَبَ بِالفِضَّةِ إِلَّا يَدًا بِيَدٍ هَا وَهَا, [or هَأْ وَهَأْ, (see art. هوأ,)] or هَآء وَهَآء, [i. e. هَآءَ وَهَآءَ,] (accord. to different copies of the T and S,) adding, (T, S,) إِنِّى أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمُ الرمآءَ; (T, S, Mgh;) [i. e. Exchange not ye gold for silver, except it be done hand with hand, meaning, except there be no delay between the giving and receiving, take and take: verily I fear for you the practice of usury;] or he said, إِلَّا هَآءَ وَهَآءِ, meaning, except [by saying] take and give: (Az, TA in باب الالف الليّنة:) and, as some relate it, he said, انّى اخاف عليكم ↓ الإرْمَآءَ; [which means the same;] using the inf. n. (T, Mgh.) رِمَآءٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

رَمِىٌّ, applied to the male of the goat-kind, or mountain-goat, or of the gazelle, [and any male animal of the chase,] and likewise, without ة, to the female, i. q. ↓ مَرْمِىٌّ [i. e. Thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot]: but when they do not distinguish a male from a female, the word applied to the male and to the female is [↓ رَمِيَّةٌ,] with ة [added لِلنَّقْلِ, i. e. to transfer it from the category of epithets to that of substantives]: or, accord. to Lh, رَمِىٌّ and ↓ رَمِيَّةٌ are both applied, as epithets, to the female; but the former is the more approved: the pl. of the former [and of the latter also] is رَمَايَا. (M, TA.) A2: Also, (M,) accord. to As, i. q. سَقِىٌّ, i. e., (T, S,) A cloud of which the rain-drops are large, and vehement in their fall, (T, S, M, K, *) of the clouds of the hot season and of the autumn: (S:) or, (M, K,) accord. to Lth, (T,) small portions of clouds, (T, M, K,) of the [apparent] size of the hand, or somewhat larger; but the approved explanation is that given by As: (T:) and ↓ رَمْىٌ is a dial. var. thereof: (TA:) the pl. is أَرْمِيَةٌ, (T, S, M, K,) like as that of سَقِىٌّ is أَسْقِيَةٌ, (S,) and أَرْمآءٌ, (Lth, T, M, K,) [each, properly, a pl. of pauc.,] and رَمَايَا. (M, K.) رَمِيَّةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places. [As a subst.,] it signifies A thing, (S, M,) meaning (S) an animal (As, T, S, M, * Mgh, Msb) of the chase, (As, T, S,) that is thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot, (As, T, S, M, Mgh, Msb,) by its pursuer; and any beast thrown at, cast at, shot at, or shot; (As, T;) applied to the male and the female: (As, T, Mgh, Msb:) it is originally a word of the measure فَعِلَيةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولَةٌ: (Msb:) [or rather] it is made fem., (As, T,) [i. e.] it has ة, (S,) because it is made a subst., (As, T, S,) not an epithet: (As, T:) it is not مَرْمِيَّةٌ converted into رَمِيَّةٌ: (S:) or, accord. to Sb, the ة, in general, is affixed to show that the act has not yet been executed upon the object thereof; [so that the meaning is, an animal to be thrown at, cast at, shot at, or shot;] and thus ذَبِيحَةٌ is applied to “ a sheep, or goat, [to be slaughtered or sacrificed,] not yet slaughtered [or sacrificed]; ” but when the act has been executed upon it, it is [said to be] ذَبِيحٌ: (M:) the pl. is رَمِيَّاتٌ and رَمَايَا. (Msb.) One says, بِئْسَ الرَّمِيَّةُ الأَرْنَبُ, meaning Very bad is the thing of those that are [or are to be] thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot, the hare. (S, M.) b2: Also, (assumed tropical:) An impost which the governor imposes [so I render مَا يَرْمِيهِ العَامِلُ] upon his subjects. (TA.) رِمِّيَّا, (S, TA,) thus correctly written, like عِمِّيَّا; in the copies of the K like عِمِيَّا, (TA,) [and in two copies of the T written رِمِيَّا; in a copy of the M, رِمِّيَا;] i. q. تَرَامٍ: (T, S: *) or مُرَامَاةٌ: (K:) or رَمْىٌ: (M:) or it is an intensive inf. n. from الرَّمْىُ, of the measure فِعِّيلَى, like هِجِّيَرى and خِصِّيصَى: (Nh, TA:) one says, كَانَتْ بَيْنَهُمْ رِمِّيَّا (T, * S, M, * TA) ثُمَّ حَجَزَتْ بَيْنَهُمْ حِجِّيزَى, (T,) or ثُمَّ صَارُوا إِلَى حِجِّيزَى, (S, TA,) i. e. There was between them a reciprocal throwing of stones, (T, TA,) [or shooting of arrows or the like, or a great, or vehement, throwing, &c.,] then there intervened between them [an intervention, or a vehement intervention, or] a person, or persons, who withheld them, one from another, (T,) or then they withheld themselves, [or withheld themselves much,] one from another. (TA.) رَامٍ act. part. n. of 1; (Lth, T, TA;) Throwing, &c.: (TA:) [pl. رُمَاةٌ.] b2: [Hence, الرَّامِى a name of The constellation Sagittarius; the ninth of the signs of the zodiac: thus called in the present day; but more commonly, القَوْسُ.] b3: [Hence likewise,] رَامٍ also signifies (assumed tropical:) [One who assails with reproach, &c.:] (assumed tropical:) one who reproaches, or upbraids; or who gives an ill name: (KL:) [(assumed tropical:) one who accuses, or suspects, another: see مَرْمِىٌّ.]

أَرْمَى [More, and most, skilled in throwing, or casting, or shooting]: see an ex. voce تِقْنٌ.

تَرْمَآءٌ: see 3 [of which it is a quasi-inf. n.].

مَرْمًى A place [of throwing, or casting, or] of shooting arrows; (KL;) the place of the butt at which arrows are shot: (TA:) [pl. مَرَامٍ.] b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) i. q. مَقْصِدٌ [meaning A place, and an object, to, or towards, which one directs his aim or course]: (TA, and Har p. 54:) pl. مَرَامٍ: (Har ibid.:) whence the trad., لَيْسَ وَرَآءَ اللّٰهِ مَرْمًى, i. e. (assumed tropical:) [There is not, beyond God,] any object (مَقْصِد) towards which to direct hopes. (TA.) مِرْمًى An instrument for throwing, or casting, or shooting: pl. مَرَامٍ. (Har p. 54.) [Hence,] مَرَامِى نِيرَانٍ [Engines for throwing fire upon the enemy]. (S and K voce حَرَّاقَةٌ.) [See also مِرْمَاةٌ.]

مَرْمَاةٌ i. q. غَلْوَةٌ [as meaning The limit of a shot or throw]. (K in art. غلو.) A2: See also the next paragraph.

مِرْمَاةٌ An arrow with which one shoots (As, IAar, T) at a butt: (As, T, Mgh:) an arrow with which one learns to shoot; (M, K, TA;) which is the worst kind of arrows: (TA:) or a small, weak arrow: (AHn, M, K:) or an arrow with its [head of] iron: (Th, TA in art. حسب:) or, like سِرْوَةٌ, a round arrow-head: (AA, [so in the S, but in the TA it is IAar,] S, TA:) [and app. a missile of any kind: (see مِرْدًى:)] pl. مَرَامٍ. (M.) When they see many مَرَامٍ in the quiver of a man, they say, وَنَبْلُ العَبْدِ أَكْثَرُهَا المَرَامِى

[And the arrows of the slave, most of them are those that are small and weak]: a prov., said to mean that the free man purchases arrows at a high price, buying the broad and long iron head, because he is a man of war and of the chase; but the slave is only a pastor, and therefore is content with what are termed مَرَامٍ, because they are cheaper if he buy them; and if he ask for them as a gift, no one gives him aught but a مِرْمَاة. (M.) [See also the last sentence of this paragraph.] b2: It is also used, tropically, as meaning (tropical:) A مَنْجَنِيق [or kind of engine for casting stones at the enemy; app. such as was called by the Romans “ onager,” or the like thereof]: because, like the مِرْمَاْة before mentioned, it is an instrument for casting, or shooting. (Mgh.) [See also مِرْمًى.] And [the pl.] مَرَامٍ also signifies (assumed tropical:) Thunderbolts; syn. صَوَاعِقُ. (Bd in xviii. 38.) b3: Also A cloven hoof (S, Mgh, K) of a sheep or goat; because it is of the things that are thrown away: (Mgh:) [or,] accord. to A 'Obeyd, (T, S,) a thing that is between the two hoofs of a sheep or goat; (T, S, M, K;) as also ↓ مَرْمَاةٌ: (A 'Obeyd, T, M, K:) thus, he says, it is explained; but I know not what is its meaning: (T, S:) its dual occurs in the following trad.: لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ دُعِىَ

إِلَى مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَجَابَ وَهُوَ لَا يُجِيبُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ; (T, S; related also, with some variations, in the M and Mgh;) in which it is said to be the dual of مِرْمَاةٌ in the former of these two senses; [i. e. If any one of you were invited to partake of two hoofs of a sheep or goat, he would obey the invitation, but he will not obey the invitation to prayer;] (S, Mgh;) or, accord. to A 'Obeyd, it is here the dual of this word in the latter of the same two senses: (T, S:) accord. to IAar, (T, TA,) or Aboo-Sa'eed, it here means the kind of arrow called مِرْمَاةٌ: (T, Mgh, TA:) but in another, and similar, trad., مرماتين is followed by أَوْعَرْقٍ [i. e. “ or a bone with some meat remaining upon it ”]. (T, Z, TA.) مَرْمِىٌّ pass. part. n. of 1; Thrown, &c.: (TA:) [thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot:] see رَمِىٌّ. b2: [Hence, (assumed tropical:) Smitten, or afflicted, with some bane, or malady, &c.: (assumed tropical:) assailed with reproach, &c.: (assumed tropical:) reproached, or upbraided, or stigmatized with an ill name: (assumed tropical:) accused, or suspected.] You say اِمْرَأَةٌ مَرْمِيَّةٌ بِسُوْءٍ (assumed tropical:) A woman accused, or suspected, of evil.

ى1 عَمِىَ, [aor. ـْ inf. n. عَمًى, He was, or became, blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes; (Msb, K, * TA;) as also ↓ اِعْمَاىَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعْمِيَآءٌ; (K;) [said by SM to be like اِرْعَوَى, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِرْعِوَآءٌ; as though اِعْمَاىَ were originally اِعْمَىَّ, like as اِرْعَوَى is originally اِرْعَوَّ, both being of the measure اِفْعلَّ; but he adds, correctly, that,] accord. to Sgh, اِعْمَاىَ is originally like اِدْهَامَمَ, which becomes اِدْهَامَّ, [i. e. it is originally اِعْمَايَىَ,] but the latter ى is changed into ا because of the fet-hah of the former, so that it becomes اِعْمَايَا, and the two, thus differing, do not easily admit of idghám (TA;) and sometimes the ى of اِعْمَاىَ is musheddedeh, (Sgh, K, TA,) so that it becomes [↓ اِعْمَاىَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعمِيَّآءٌ,] like اِدْهَامَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِدْهِيمَامٌ; but this is by a straining of a point, and not in use: (Sgh, TA:) and ↓ تعمّى, likewise, signifies the same, (K, TA,) i. e., the same as عَمِىَ. (TA.) And you say also, عَمِيَتْ عَيْنَاهُ His two eyes were, or became, blind. (TA.) b2: Hence عَمًى is metaphorically used in relation to the mind, as meaning (tropical:) An erring; the connection between the two meanings being the not finding, or not taking, the right way: (Msb:) or the being blind in respect of the mind: and in this sense, the verb is as above, with the exception of the measure اِفعَالَّ [and the abbreviated form of this]. (K, * TA. [اَفْعَالٍ in the CK in this passage is a mistranscription, for افْعَالَّ.]) You say, عَمِىَ عَنْ رُشْدِهِ, and حُجَّتِهِ, meaning لَمْ يَهْتَدِ (assumed tropical:) [He did not, or could not, become guided to his right course, and his plea or the like; i. e. he was, or became, blind thereto]. (TA.) And عَمِىَ عَنْ حَقِّهِ (assumed tropical:) [He was, or became, blind to his right, or due], like عَشِىَ عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) b3: One says also عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرُ (tropical:) The information was, or became, unapparent, obscure, or covert, to him. (Mgh, Msb. *) And عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ طَرِيقُهُ, (TA,) and الأَمْرُ, (S, TA,) and الشِّعْرُ, and الكَلَامُ, (Har p. 190,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His way, or road, and the affair, and the poetry, or verse, and the speech, or saying,] was, or became, obscure, or dubious, to him; (S, TA, and Har ubi suprá) and so ↓ عُمِّىَ; (TA;) and ↓ تعمّى. (Har ubi suprá.) Hence, accord. to different readings, in the Kur [xxviii. 66], فَعَمِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَنْبَآءُ and ↓ فَعُمِّيَتْ (assumed tropical:) [And the pleas shall be obscure, or dubious, to them]. (S, TA.) b4: and عَمِيتُ إِلَى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I betook myself to such a thing, not desiring any other; as also عَطِشْتُ. (TA. [Accord. to the TA, the inf. ns. of these two verbs, thus used, are عميان and عطشان: but they are correctly عَمًى and عَطَشٌ.]) A2: عَمَى

المَوْجُ, aor. ـْ (S, K,) inf. n. عَمْىٌ, (S,) The waves cast the particles of rubbish, or the like, (S, K, TA,) driving them to their upper, or uppermost, parts, (TA,) and the foam. (S, TA.) b2: And عَمَى بِلُغَامِهِ, (K, TA,) aor. ـْ (TA,) He (a camel) brayed, and cast the foam of his mouth upon his head, or the upper part of his head, or anywhere: (K, TA:) mentioned by ISd. (TA.) b3: And [hence] عَمَانِى بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He cast upon me a suspicion of such a thing. (TA.) b4: عَمَى, aor. ـْ said of water, (K, TA,) and of other things, (TA,) also signifies It flowed; (K, TA;) and so هَمَى. (TA.) b5: And عمى النَّبْتُ [app. عَمَى] and ↓ اعتمى and اِعْتَمَّ are three syn. dial. vars., (TA in this art.,) meaning (assumed tropical:) The plant, or herbage, became of its full height, and blossomed; (S, K, TA, in explanation of the last, in art. عم;) and became luxuriant, or abundant and dense. (TA in that art.) 2 عمّاهُ, inf. n. تَعْمِيَةٌ, He rendered him blind, of both eyes: (K, TA:) and (TA) so ↓ اعماهُ, (S, Msb, TA,) said of God, (S, TA,) or of a man. (Msb.) Hence the saying of Sá'ideh Ibn-Jueiyeh, وَعَمَّى عَلَيْهِ المَوْتُ بَابَىْ طَرِيقِهِ [And death rendered blind, to him, the two doors of his way]; بابى طريقه meaning his two eyes. (TA.) b2: And [hence] عَمَّيْتُ الخَبَرَ (assumed tropical:) I made the information unapparent, obscure, or covert. (Msb.) And عمّى مَعْنَى البَيْتِ, inf. n. as above, (S, K,) (assumed tropical:) He made the meaning of the verse unapparent, obscure, or covert. (K.) And عمّى مُرَادَهُ (assumed tropical:) He made his meaning enigmatical, or obscure, in his speech, or language. (S, A, K, in art. لغز.) and عمّى عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ شَيْئًا (assumed tropical:) He made a thing obscure, or dubious, to a man. (TA.) See also 1, latter half, in two places. [And see مُعَمَّى.]4 اعماهُ: see 2, first sentence. b2: Also He found him to be blind [app. meaning properly, and also (assumed tropical:) in mind]. (K, TA.) b3: مَا أَعْمَاهُ meansonly مَا أَعْمَى قَلْبَهُ (assumed tropical:) [How blind is his mind!]: (S, K:) for the verb of wonder is not formed from that which is not significant of increase. (S.) 5 تعمّى [in its proper sense, and also in a tropical sense]: see 1, in two places.6 تعامى He feigned himself أَعْمَى (S, K, TA) [i. e. blind], in respect of the eyes [as is implied in the S], b2: and also (assumed tropical:) in respect of the mind [as is implied in the K]. (TA.) You say, تعامى عَنْ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) He feigned himself ignorant [of such a thing], as though he did not see it; like تَعَاشَى

عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) 8 اِعْتَمَاهُ He chose it, selected it, or preferred it; syn. اِخْتَارَهُ; (S, K, TA;) i. e., a thing; (S;) formed by transposition from اِعْتَامَهُ [mentioned in art. عيم]. (S, TA.) b2: And i. q. قَصَدَهُ [i. e. He tended, betook himself, or directed himself or his course or aim, to, or towards, him, or it; &c.]; (K, TA;) like اِعْتَامَهُ. (TA in art. عيم.) A2: See also 1, last sentence.11 اِعْمَاىَّ, and its abbreviated form اِعْمَاىَ: see 1, first quarter.

صَكَّةَ عُمْىٍ: see صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ.

عَمَا in the phrase عَمَا وَاللّٰهِ, i. q. أَمَا [expl. in art. اما]: (K, TA:) as also غَمَا, (K in art. غمى,) and هَمَا. (TA.) عَمًى [sometimes written عَمًا] inf. n. of عَمِىَ [q. v.]. (S, * Msb, K.) [Hence the saying, لَا شَلَلًا وَلَا عَمًى: see 1 in art. شل. Hence also one says, رَكِبَ أَمْرًا عَلَى العَمَى, meaning He ventured upon, or embarked in, an affair blindly; like عَلَى

غَيْرِ بَصِيرَةِ.]

A2: See also أَعْمَآءٌ.

A3: And see عَمَآءٌ, in two places.

A4: Also Stature: and height. (K.) One says, مَا أَحْسَنَ عَمَى هٰذَا الرَّجُلِ i. e. [How goodly is] the height, or the stature, of this man! (TA.) A5: And Dust; syn. غُبَارٌ. (K.) A6: In the saying of a rájiz, describing a skin of milk, because of its whiteness, يَحْسَبُهُ الجَاهِلُ مَا كَانَ عَمَا شَيْخًا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّةِ مُعَمَّمَا [The ignorant would think it, while there was remoteness, to be an old man upon his chair, turbaned,] the meaning is looking at it from afar; for العَمَا in this case signifies remoteness. (TA.) عَمٍ, originally عَمِىٌ: see أَعْمَى, in four places.

عَمْيَةٌ, a contraction of عَمِيَةٌ fem. of عَمٍ: see أَعْمَى.

عِمْيَةٌ [in the CK erroneously عَمْيَة] a subst. from اِعْتَمَاهُ in the sense of اِخْتَارَهُ [signifying A thing chosen, selected, or preferred; like خِيرَةٌ, a subst. from اِخْتَارَهُ]. (K, TA.) عَمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed عَمٍ

(S, TA.) عَمَآءٌ, (S, K, TA,) in some of the copies of the K ↓ عَمًى, and by some thus related in a trad. mentioned in what follows, (TA,) Clouds: or, accord. to Az, [clouds] resembling smoke, surmounting the heads of mountains: (S, Msb:) or lofty clouds: or [in the CK “ and ”] dense: (K, TA:) or dense [clouds such as are termed] غَيْم: (TA:) or raining clouds: or thin clouds: or black: or white: or such as have poured forth their water; (K, TA;) but have not become dissundered like mountains: and ↓ عَمَآءَةٌ [is the n. un., and] signifies a dense, covering, cloud; as also ↓ عَمَايَةٌ: or a dense portion of cloud: but some disallow this, and make عَمَآءٌ to be [only] a coll. n. (TA.) It is related in a trad. that, in reply to the question “ Where was our Lord (meaning the عَرْش [q. v.] of our Lord) before He created his creatures? ” it was said, كَانَ فِى عَمَآءٍ تَحْتَهُ هَوَآءٌ وَفَوْقَهُ هَوَآءٌ [He (i. e. his عَرْش) was in clouds, or lofty clouds, &c., beneath which was a vacuity, and above which was a vacuity]: or, accord. to one relation, ↓ كَانَ فِى عَمًى [meaning He was in a vacuity] i. e. there was not with Him anything: or, as some say, it means anything that the intellectual faculties cannot perceive, and to the definition of which the describer cannot attain. (TA.) b2: See also عَمَآءَةٌ.

[I came to him, or I met him,] in the time of midday when the heat was vehement, (S,) or in the most vehement heat of midday in summer (K, and Lh and O and TA in art. صك) when the heat almost blinded by its vehemence; (Lh and O and TA in that art.;) a time in which the divinelyappointed prayer [of midday] is forbidden: it is said only in the hot season; because when a man goes forth at that time, he cannot fill his eyes with the light of the sun; or, as ISd says, because the gazelle seeks the covert when the heat is vehement, and his eye becomes weak by reason of the whiteness of the sun, and the bright shining thereof, and he is dazzled, so that he knocks against his covert, not seeing it: (TA:) عُمَىّ being an abbreviated dim. of أَعْمَى: (S:) or it is a name for the heat, (K, TA,) itself: (TA:) or the name of a certain man, (K, TA,) of [the tribe of] 'Adwán, who used to press forward with the pilgrims when the heat was vehement, as is related in the Nh, or (TA) who used to decide cases judicially in, or concerning, the pilgrimage, and he came among a company journeying upon their camels, (K, TA,) performing the religious visit called عُمْرَة, (TA,) and they alighted at a station in a hot day, whereupon he said, “Upon whomsoever shall come this hour, or time, of tomorrow while he is حَرَام [i. e. in the condition of one performing the acts of the حَجّ or of the عُمْرَة], (K, TA,) not having accomplished his عُمْرَة, (TA,) he shall remain حَرَام until [this time] next year: ” and they immediately sprang up, (K, TA,) hastening, (TA,) so that they arrived at the House [of God, at Mekkeh, in the time required,] from a distance of a journey of two nights, using exertion; (K, TA;) and this saying became a prov., as is related in the M: (TA:) or it was the name of a certain man, (S, K, TA,) of the Amalekites, (S, TA,) who made a sudden attack upon a people, and exterminated them; (S, K, TA;) and the time became called in relation to him.

عَمَّا is a compound of عَنْ and مَا.

تَرَكْنَاهُمْ عُمَّى, (S, K,) or تركناهم فى عُمَّى, (so in some copies of the S, [thus in one of my copies,]) (assumed tropical:) We left them at the point of death. (S, K.) b2: See also أَعْمَآءُ.

عِمِّيَّا, of the measure فِعِّيلَى, i. q. فِتْنَةٌ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) Trial, or probation; punishment; slaughter; civil war; conflict and faction, or sedition; &c.]. (Mz, 40th نوع.) [See also the next paragraph.]

b2: [In the TA, عمياء, evidently a mistranscription for عِمِّيَّا, is expl. as having the second of the meanings assigned above to عَمَآءَةٌ &c., i. e. (assumed tropical:) Persistence; or contention, &c.] b3: قَتِيلُ عِمِّيَّا, (Mz ubi suprà, and K,) [in the CK, erroneously, عَمِيَّا, and in the TA قُتِلَ عِمِّيَّا,] the latter word of the measure فِعِّيلَى, (Mz, TA,) like رِمِّيَّا, (K, TA, [in the CK like رَمِيَّا,]) and خِصِّيصَى, (TA,) means (assumed tropical:) A slain person whose slayer is not known. (Mz, K, TA.) The predicament of him who has been so slain is like that of the slain unintentionally; the bloodwit being obligatory in his case [on his عَاقِلَة, q. v. voce عَاقِلٌ]. (TA.) عِمِّيَّةٌ and عُمِّيَّةٌ, (K, TA,) of the measure فُــعِّيلَةٌ from العَمَى, (TA,) Pride; or self-magnification: or error; or deviation from that which is right. (K, TA. [See also عَمَآءَةٌ, and عِمِّيَّا.]) Hence, in a trad., مَنْ قُتِلَ تَحْتَ رَايَةِ عُِمِّيَّةٍ [Whoso has been slain under a banner of pride, &c.,] i. e. in فِتْنَة [meaning conflict and faction, or the like], or error, as in the fighting in the case of partisanship, and of erroneous opinions. (TA.) عَامٍ One who does not see his road, or way. (TA.) b2: عَامِيَةٌ, applied to a land (أَرْضٌ): see أَعْمَى. b3: Also, [thus applied,] Of which the traces are becoming [or become] effaced, or obliterated. (TA.) b4: See also أَعْمَآءٌ, in three places. b5: Applied to a woman, (TA,) عَامِيَةٌ signifies بَكَّآءَةٌ, (K, TA,) [a strange epithet,] meaning (assumed tropical:) Having very little milk. (TK.) A2: Applied to a man, عَامٍ signifies also رَامٍ [i. e. Casting, &c.]. (TA.) أَعْمَى (S, Msb, K) and ↓ عَمٍ (K [but see what follows]) Blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes: (Msb, K, * TA:) fem. of the former عَمْيَآءُ: (Msb, K, TA:) and pl. [masc.] عُمْىٌ (S, Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمْيَانٌ (Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمَاةٌ, as though this last were pl. of عَامٍ; (K, TA, but not in the CK;) and the dual of its fem. is عَمْيَاوَانِ; and its pl. is عَمْيَاوَاتٌ: (TA:) the fem. of ↓ عَمٍ is عَمِيَةٌ, (S, K, TA, [in the CK عَمِيَّةٌ, which is a mistranscription, for it is]) of the measure فَعِلَةٌ, (S,) like فَرِحَةٌ, (TA,) and ↓ عَمْيَةٌ, (K, TA, but not in the CK,) which is [a contraction] like فَخْذٌ for فَخِذٌ: (TA:) and the pl. masc. is عَمُونَ. (S, TA.) b2: And [hence,] (assumed tropical:) Blind in respect of the mind: (K, TA:) [but more commonly] one says, ↓ هُوَ عَمٍ as meaning (tropical:) He is erring, or one who errs; and أَعْمَى القَلْبِ [meaning the same, or blind in respect of the mind]: (Msb:) or القَلْبِ ↓ رَجُلٌ عَمِى i. e. (assumed tropical:) An ignorant man [or a man blind in respect of the mind]; and اِمْرَأَةٌ عَمِيَةٌ عَنِ الصَّوَابِ [a woman ignorant of, or blind to, that which is right], and عَمِيَةُ القَلْبِ [like عَمِى القَلْبِ as applied to a man]. (S.) In the saying in the Kur [xvii. 74], وَمَنْ كَانَ فِى هٰذِهِ فَهُوَ فِى الْآخِرَةِ أَعْمَى, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former [اعمى] is a part. n. and the second is like it; (TA;) and the meaning is, And whoso is in this state of existence blind in respect of the mind, not seeing his right course, he will be in the other blind with respect to the way of safety: (Bd:) or, as some say, the second is what is termed أَفْعَلُ تَفْضِيلٍ, the complement of which is expressed by means of مِنْ, [meaning more blind &c.,] and therefore AA and Yaakoob did not pronounce it with الإِمَالَة, as not being like the first, (Bd, TA, *) which is subject to الامالة because its ا [written ى] becomes [really]

ى in the dual: but Hamzeh and Ks and Aboo-Bekr pronounced both with الامالة. (Bd.) b3: الأَعْمَيَانِ means (assumed tropical:) The torrent and the fire of a burning house or the like; (K, TA;) because of the perplexity that befalls him whom they befall; or because, when they occur, they spare not a place, nor avoid anything; like the أَعْمَى [or blind], who knows not where he is travelling, so that he goes whither his leg conveys him: (TA:) or the torrent and the night: (K:) or the torrent, (S, K) or the tumultuous torrent, (TA,) and the camel excited by lust. (S, K, TA.) b4: And الأَمْرُ الأَعْمَى (assumed tropical:) The case [such as that] of partisanship (العَصَبِيَّة) whereof the manner of proceeding is not distinguishable. (TA.) b5: And أَرْضٌ عَمْيَآءُ and ↓ عَامِيَةٌ, and مَكَانٌ أَعْمَى, (assumed tropical:) A land, and a place, in which one will not, or cannot, be directed to his right course. (TA.) b6: See also صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ: b7: and see عَمِيَّةٌ.

أَعْمَآءٌ Tracts of land in which is no sign of the way, (S, K,) nor any habitation or cultivation, (K,) or nor any trace of habitation or cultivation; (S;) and ↓ مَعَامٍ signifies the same; (S, K;) this latter being a pl. of which the sing., said by ISd to be unknown to him, should by rule be معمية [app. مُعْمِيَةٌ], but it is ↓ عُمَّى, deviating from rule; (TA;) or it means مَجَاهِلُ, and its sing. is معماة [i. e. ↓ مَعْمَاةٌ] signifying a place of erring, or wandering from the right way: (Har p. 85:) in the K, أَعْمَآءٌ is also expl. as signifying جُهَّالٌ [pl. of جَاهِلٌ], and is said to be [in this sense] pl. of أَعْمَى: but this is a double mistake, for it signifies مَجَاهِلُ, [like as مَعَامٍ is said to do above,] and its sing. is عمى [app. ↓ عَمًى]. (TA.) In the phrase ↓ أَعْمَآءُ عَامِيَةٌ, [in the CK, erroneously, عامِيَّةٌ,] the latter word is added to give intensiveness to the meaning; i. e., it signifies [Tracts in which is no sign of the way, &c.,] in the utmost degree obscure or dubious: thus it is in the following verse: (TA:) Ru-beh says, أَعْمَاؤُهُ ↓ وَبَلَدٍ عَامِيَةٍ

كَأَنَّ لَوْنَ أَرْضِهِ سَمَاؤُهُ [And many a desert, or waterless desert, whereof the tracts in which is no sign of the way are in the utmost degree obscure or dubious, as though the colour of its ground were like that of its sky]: (S, TA:) he means وَرُبَّ بَلَدٍ. (S.) b2: Also Tall; applied to men: (IAar, K:) pl. of ↓ عَامٍ, like as أَنْصَارٌ is of نَاصِرٌ. (IAar, TA.) أَعْمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed أَعْمَى [q. v.]. (S, TA.) مَعْمَاةٌ; and the pl. مَعَامٍ: see أَعْمَآءٌ.

مُعَمًّى (assumed tropical:) A verse [or a saying] of which the meaning is made unapparent, obscure, or covert. (S, TA.) المُعْتَمِى The lion. (K.)

رع

ى1 رَعَتِ المَاشِيَةُ, aor. ـْ (Msb, K,) inf. n. رَعْىٌ (S, * Msb, K) and رِعَايَةٌ (K) and مَرْعًى; (S, * K, * JM;) and ↓ ارتعت, and ↓ ترعّت; (K;) The cattle [pastured, or] pastured by themselves. (Msb.) And رَعَتِ المَاشِيَةُ الكَلَأَ, inf. n. رَعْىٌ (Mgh, TA) and رِعَايَةٌ [and مَرْعًى]; and ↓ ارتعت, and ↓ ترعّت; [The cattle pastured upon, or depastured, the herbage;] all signifying the same: (TA:) and of a camel you say, رَعَى الكَلَأَ بِنَفْسِهِ, inf. n. رَعْىٌ [&c., He pastured upon, or depastured, the herbage by himself]; and in like manner ↓ ارتعى. (S.) b2: The saying of 'Áïsheh فَإِنْ كَانَتْ تَرْعَى مَا هُنَالِكَ is an allusion to the feeling, or touching, of the فَرْج itself. (Mgh.) A2: رَعْىٌ also signifies The keeping, or tending, animals; pasturing, or feeding, them; and defending them from the enemy. (Er-Rághib, TA.) You say, رَعَيْتُ الإِبِلَ, (S,) or المَاشِيَةَ, (Msb, K,) or الغَنَمَ, (MA,) aor. ـْ (S, Msb,) inf. n. رَعْىٌ (S, MA) [and رِعَايَةٌ, as appears from a phrase mentioned below,] and رِعْيَةٌ, (MA,) or this last is a simple subst. from this verb, (K,) I [kept, or tended, or] pastured, (MA, Msb,) or lead to pasture, (MA,) the camels, (S,) or the cattle, (Msb, K,) or the sheep or goats; (MA;) and ↓ ارعاها signifies the same as رَعَاهَا. (K.) and صِنَاعَتُهُ رِعَايَةُ الإِبِلِ [His habitual work, or occupation, is the tending, or pasturing, of camels]. (ISd, K.) And فُلَانٌ يَرْعَى أَبِيهِ [Such a one tends, or pastures, for his father;] i. e. يَرْعَى غَنَمَهُ [tends, or pastures, his father's sheep or goats]. (S.) b2: And hence, as also رِعَايَةٌ, The keeping or guarding [a person or thing]; being mindful or regardful [of him or it]; and managing or ruling or governing [him or it]. (Er-Rághib, TA.) You say, رَعَيْتُهُ I kept, or guarded, him, as a ruler or governor, or a prince or commander, who manages, conducts, orders, or regulates, the affairs of the people: (Msb:) and رَعَى الأَمِيرُ رَعِيَّتَهُ [The prince ruled, or governed, his subjects], inf. n. رِعَايَةٌ. (S.) And رَعْيًا لَكَ [I beg God's keeping, or guarding, for thee]; meaning رَعَاكَ اللّٰهُ May God keep thee, or guard thee. (Har p. 617.) And رَعَى أَمْرَهُ, (K,) inf. n. رَعْىٌ (TA) [and رِعَايَةٌ], He was mindful, or regardful, of his affair, or case; as also امره ↓ راعى, (K, TA,) inf. n. مُرَاعَاةٌ. (TA.) And رِعَآءٌ [app. as an inf. n. of ↓ راعى] signifies The guarding of palm-trees. (TA.) فَمَا رَعَوْهَا حَقَّ رِعَايَتِهَا, in the Kur [lvii. 27], means But they did not observe it with its right, or due, observance; were not mindful, watchful, observant, or regardful, of it, in the right, or due, manner of being so. (TA.) You say also, رَعَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ حُرْمَتَهُ, inf. n. رِعَايَةٌ, (ISk, S,) i. e. 1 was mindful, regardful, or observant, of his حرمة [meaning of what was entitled to reverence, respect, honour, or defence, in his character and appertenances]: and in like manner, ↓ مُرَاعَاةٌ الحُقُوقِ, mentioned in the S, means The being mindful, regardful, or observant, of rights, or dues. (PS.) This last phrase is from ↓ رَاعَيْتُهُ, inf. n. مُرَاعَاةٌ, (TA,) which means I regarded him; had regard, or an eye, to him; or paid regard, or consideration, to him; (S, Msb, K, TA;) acting, or behaving, well to him; doing good to him; or conferring a benefit, or benefits, upon him. (K, TA.) [Hence also, فِيهِ كَذَا ↓ رُوعِىَ Regard is had, in it, (the meaning of a word or phrase,) to such a thing, as alluded to therein.] And الأَمْرَ ↓ رَاعَيْتُ, (S, K,) inf. n. مُرَاعَاةٌ, (TA,) signifies also I looked to see what would be the issue, or result, of the affair, or case. (S, Msb, K.) Hence, accord. to Er-Rághib, النُّجُومِ ↓ مُرَاعَاةُ: (TA:) you say, رَعَى النُّجُومَ; (S, K;) and ↓ رَاعَاهَا, (K,) inf. n. مُرَاعَاةٌ; (TA;) He watched the stars, (S, K, TA,) waiting for the time when they would disappear. (K, TA.) El-Khansà says, ↓ أَرْعَى النُّجومَ وَمَا كُلِّفْتُ رِعْيَتَهَا وَتَارَةً أَتَغَشَّى فَضْلَ أَطْمَارِى

[I watch, or I watching, the stars, waiting for the time when they will, or would, disappear, though I am not, or I was not, tasked with the watching of them; and at one time I cover myself, or covering myself, with the redundant parts of my old and worn-out garments]. (S.) b3: رِعَايَةٌ also signifies The being faithful to an engagement, or promise; syn. وَفَآءٌ. (Mgh. [See رَاعٍ, below; last sentence.]) 2 رعّاهُ, inf. n. تَرْعِيَةٌ, He said [of him], رَعَاهُ اللّٰهُ [May God keep him, or guard him: or he said to him, رَعَاكَ اللّٰهُ May God keep thee, or guard thee]. (TA.) 3 راعى الحِمَارُ الحُمُرَ The ass pastured with the [other] asses: (S, K:) and in like manner one says of camels with wild animals. (TA.) b2: راعت الأَرْضُ, a reading required by the context in the K, is wrong; the correct phrase being ارعت الأَرْضُ [q. v.]. (TA.) b3: See also 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in eight places. b4: المُرَاعَاةُ is also syn. with المُنَاظَرَةُ [app. as meaning The looking towards, or facing, a person or thing: a signification nearly like the last referred to in the sentence here immediately preceding]. (TA.) b5: See also 4, in three places. b6: وَرِّعِ اللِّصَّ وَلَا تُرَاعِهِ, in a trad. of 'Omar, means Restrain thou the thief, or make him to refrain, from taking thy goods, but bear not witness against him: so says Lth: or the meaning is, and do not wait for him. (TA.) 4 ارعى المَاشِيَةَ i. q. رَعَاهَا: see 1, in the former half of the paragraph. Said of God, it means He caused to grow, for the cattle, that upon which they might pasture. (S.) One says also ارعت الأَرْضُ, [as though المَاشِيَةَ or the like were understood] The land abounded [as though it fed abundantly] with herbage: (Zj, K:) راعت الأَرْضُ, in this sense [as stated above, see 3,] is wrong. (TA.) And ارعاهُ المَكَانَ He made the place to be a pasturage for him. (ISd, K.) b2: أَرعَيْتُهُ سَمْعِى means I made my ear, or ears, to be mindful of his speech: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or I gave ear, hearkened, or listened, to him. (S, Msb.) Yousay, أَرْعِنِى سَمْعَكَ, (Msb, K,) and ↓ رَاعِنِى, i. e. Hearken thou, or listen thou, to my speech. (K.) Hence ↓ رَاعِنَا in the Kur [ii. 98 and iv. 48]: Akh says that it is of the form فَاعِلْنَا from المُرَاعَاةُ, and means أَرْعِنَا سَمْعَكَ; the ى having gone away because it is an imperative: he says also that it is read رَاعِنًا, as an objective complement, from الرُّعُونَةُ: (S: [see art. رعن:]) the reading in Ibn-Mes'ood's copy of the Kur-án is رَاعُونَا. (TA.) You say also, هُوَ لَا يُرْعِى إِلَى قَوْلِ أَحَدٍ He will not pay any regard, or attention, to the saying of any one. (TA.) b3: And أَرْعَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ I showed mercy to him [by sparing him, or letting him live, or by pardoning him, or otherwise]; had mercy on him; pitied, or compassionated, him; syn. أَبْقَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ and تَرَحَّمْتُهُ. (S, K.) Aboo-Dahbal says, إِنْ كَانَ هٰذَا السِّحْرُ مِنْكِ فَلَا تُرْعِى عَلَىَّ وَجَدِّدِى سِحْرَا [app. meaning If this enchantment be from thee, then spare me not, but renew enchantment]. (TA. [It seems to be there cited as an instance of the verb's having a second objective complement; (for which I see no reason;) following the assertion that one says, أَرْعَى عَلَيْهِ كَذَا, signifying ابقى; and that the verb is made trans. by means of على as properly meaning ارعاه متطلعا عليه: but I doubt not that the correct reading is أَرْعَاهُ مُطَّلِعًا عَلَيْهِ, i. e. He showed mercy to him, coming to him, or getting sight and knowledge of him.]) ↓ المُرَاعَآةُ, also, [or المُرَاعَاةُ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ,] signifies الإِبْقَآءُ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ. (TA.) 5 تَرَعَّىَ see 1, first and second sentences.8 إِرْتَعَىَ see 1, in three places, first two sentences.10 استرعى [app. signifies He desired cattle to pasture: and hence, he left them to pasture alone]. You say, اِسْتَرْعَيْتُ مَالِىَ القَمَرَ, meaning I left my cattle to pasture without a pastor to take care of them in the night: and [in like manner,] استرعيتهُ الشَّمْسَ, in the day. (TA in art. قمر.) b2: اِسْتَرْعَيْتُهُ الشَّىْءَ (S, K *) I asked him, or desired him, to keep or guard, or be mindful of or regardful of, the thing. (K, * TA.) Hence the prov., مَنِ اسْتَرْعَى الذِّئْبَ فَقَدْ ظَلَمَ [He who asks, or desires, the wolf to keep guard does wrong]; (S, TA;) i. e. he who trusts in one who is treacherous puts trust in a wrong place. (TA.) [And hence also,] اِسْتَرْعَى الأَسْمَاعَ لِخُطْبَتِهِ He asked, or desired, the ears [meaning the hearers] to mind his discourse, or oration. (Har p. 361.) رِعْىٌ and ↓ مَرْعًى Pasture, or herbage; (S, Mgh, K;) the food of beasts: (Msb:) pl. of the former أَرْعَآءٌ [meaning kinds, or sorts, of pasture or herbage]: (K:) and of ↓ the latter مَرَاعٍ. (Msb.) It is said in a prov., وَلَا كَالسَّعْدَانِ ↓ مَرْعًى

[Pasture, but not like the سعدان: see art. سعد]. (S.) b2: رِعْىُ الحَمَامِ وَالإِبِلِ A certain herb, having berries like myrtle-berries, in which is the least degree of sweetness; not injurious to the camels that feed upon it, but poison to [venomous or noxious reptiles or the like, such as are termed]

هَوَامّ: the decoction thereof blackens the hair. (Ibn-Seenà, book ii. p. 252.) رِعْيَةٌ a subst. from 1 in the first of the senses mentioned in this art.; i. e. [The act of cattle's pasturing, or their pasturing alone,] from رَعَتِ المَاشِيَةُ. (K.) b2: [Also The act, or occupation, of keeping or tending, or of pasturing or feeding, animals.] You say [of a man], يُجِيدُ رِعْيَةَ الإِبِلِ [He performs well the act of keeping or tending, or of pasturing or feeding, camels]. (S, K.) b3: [And The act of watching, and waiting for the time of the disappearance, of the stars.] See a verse cited near the end of the first paragraph.

A2: Also Land in which are projecting stones that impede the plough. (K, TA.) رَعْوَى and رُعْوَى: see the next paragraph. b2: [Both seem to be also substs. from أَرْعَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ; and thus to be syn. with بَقْوَى and بُقْوَى; and in like manner, ↓ رُعْيَا is probably syn. with بُقْيَا: the radical ى being changed into و as it is in بقوى.] You say, مَا لِى عَلَيْهِ رَعْوَى وَلَا بَقْوَى [I have no mercy nor pity to bestow upon him]. (JK in art. بقى. [See بُقْيَا.]) See also 1 in art. رعو [from which رَعْوَى in this phrase may also with reason be regarded as derivable].

رُعْيَا a subst. from رَعَى as used in the phrase رَعَى أَمْرَهُ [expl. in the first paragraph; thus signifying Mindfulness, regardfulness, or observance, of an affair, or a case]; as also ↓ رَعْوَى and ↓ رُعْوَى. (K.) b2: See also the next preceding paragraph. And see art. رعو.

رَعِىٌّ Pastured: ruled, or governed: and kept, or guarded: so accord. to Golius, as on the authority of the KL; but not in my copy of that work. It is agreeable with analogy as syn. with مَرْعِىٌّ: and from it is formed the subst. next following.]

رَعِيَّةٌ [with ة affixed لِلنَّقْلِ, i. e., to transfer the word from the category of epithets to that of substantives,] Cattle pasturing, or pasturing by themselves: and cattle kept, tended, or pastured: (K, TA:) pl. رَعَايَا: (TA:) this latter (the pl.) signifies cattle kept, tended, or pastured, for any one; (K, TA;) for the subjects and for the Sultán; (TA;) as also ↓ رَعَاوِيَّةٌ: (K, TA: in some copies of the K رَعَاوِيَة, without teshdeed:) and ↓ أَرْعَاوِيَّةٌ signifies cattle kept, tended, or pastured, for the Sultán, (K, TA,) especially, and upon which are his brands and marks. (TA.) Hence the trad., كُلُّ رَاعٍ مَسْؤُولٌ عِنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ [Every pastor shall be questioned respecting his pastured cattle: or every ruler shall be questioned respecting his subjects; agreeably with what follows]. (TA.) b2: The people ruled or governed; the subjects of a ruler or governor: (Msb, K:) the community; the people in common or in general; or the common people: (S:) [any persons or person, and things or thing, in the keeping, or under the guardianship or rule or government, of a man or woman:] see رَاعٍ, in the latter half of the paragraph: pl. as above. (TA.) رعاءة الخَيْلِ: see رَاعِيَةٌ.

رَعَاوَى and رُعَاوَى Camels that pasture around the people and their dwellings (S, K) because they are those upon which they work [or perform their business]: (S:) but in the Tekmileh it is written ↓ رُعَاوِيَّةٌ, as meaning cattle that pasture around the dwellings of the people. (TA.) رَعَاوِيَّةٌ: see رَعِيَّةٌ.

رُعَاوِيَّةٌ: see رَعَاوَى.

رَاعٍ [act. part. n. of 1]. You say مَاشِيَةٌ رَاعِيَةٌ Cattle [pasturing, or] pasturing by themselves: (Msb:) pl. رَوَاعِى [a mistranscription for رَوَاعٍ]. (TA.) b2: رَاعِى البُسْتَانِ and الأُتُنِ ↓ رَاعِيَةُ are names of Two species of جَنَادِب [or locusts]; (K;) the latter mentioned by ISd: Sgh says that the former is a large جُنْدَب: and the latter is another species, that does not fly. (TA.) b3: رَاعٍ also signifies A keeper, or guarder, (TA,) or pastor, (Msb,) of cattle: (Msb, TA:) an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant: (TA:) pl. رُعَاةٌ, (S, Msb, TA,) but this is said to be mostly used as pl. of رَاعٍ in another sense as will be shown below, (TA,) and رِعَآءٌ [and app. رُعَآءٌ (mentioned below)] and رُعْيَانٌ; (S, Msb, TA;) and رُعَاةٌ has a pl., namely, رُعًى. (TA.) b4: [Hence,] الرَّاعِى is the name of The star [a] that is upon the head of الحَوَّآء [i. e. Ophiuchus]: that which is upon the head of الحاوى [a mistranscription in my MS. for الجَاثِى, i. e. Hercules, the star a,] being called كَلْبُ الرَّاعِى. (Kzw.) Also The star γ] that is upon the left leg of Cepheus: between whose legs is a star [app. K] that is called كَلْبُ الرَّاعِى: (Kzw:) [from their longitudes it seems that these two stars are the same as are meant by what here follows:] الكَلْبُ [or كَلْبُ الرَّاعِى] is a certain star over against الدَّلْو [or Aquarius, which latter is] below; in the path of which is a red [or perhaps another (آخَر instead of أَحْمَر)] star, called الرَّاعِى. (TA in art. كلب.) [and accord. to Freytag, رَاعِى الجَوْزَآءِ is the name of A star otherwise called the Foot of Orion: and رَاعِى النَّعَائِمِ, the name of The star λ in Sagittarius: see Ideler's “ Untersuch. über den Ursprung etc. der Sternnamen,” to which he refers, pp. 213, 226, for the former; and p. 187 for the latter.] b5: [And hence,] رَاعٍ signifies also A ruler, or governor, (S, K,) or prince, or commander, (Msb,) who manages, conducts, orders, or regulates, the affairs of a people: (Msb, K:) and a ruler, or governor, of himself: (TA:) pl. رُعَاةٌ and رُعْيَانٌ, (K,) but it is said that the former is mostly used as meaning rulers, or governors, and the latter as pl. of رَاعٍ in relation to sheep or goats [or the like], (TA,) and رِعَآءٌ and رُعَآءٌ. (K.) It is said in a trad., كُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَكُلُّكُمْ مَسْؤُولٌ عِنْ

↓ رَعِيَّتِهِ [Every one of you is a ruler, or governor, and every one of you shall be questioned respecting those, or that, of which he is ruler or governor]: such is the man in respect of his family, and in respect of the property of his father; and the servant in respect of the property of his master; and the wife is a رَاعِيَة in respect of the house, or tent, of her husband: and every one of these shall be questioned respecting his, or her, رَعِيَّة. (ElJámi' es-Sagheer of Es-Suyootee.) And one says, كَالرَّاعِى ↓ لَيْسَ المَرْعِىُّ [The ruled, or governed, is not like the ruler, or governor]. (S.) b6: In the saying of El-Karkhee, بَاعَ طَيْرًا عَلَى أَنَّهُ رَاعٍ, relating to [carrier-] pigeons, it is from الرِّعَايَةُ signifying الوَفَآءُ; [the saying meaning He sold birds on the condition of their being such as would be faithful to their charge;] for pigeons in El-'Irák and Syria are bought for high prices, and sent from distant points with letters of informations, and convey them, and bring back replies to them. (Mgh, JM.) رَاعِيَةٌ [fem. of رَاعٍ. b2: Also a subst. formed from the latter word by the affix ة; like رَعِيَّةٌ from رَعِىٌّ]: see راعٍ, third sentence. b3: الرَّاعِيَةُ is the name of A certain bird: (TA:) [and] so is رَاعِيَةُ الخَيْلِ; (TA, and thus in some copies of the K;) thus correctly written, as in the Tekmileh; in [some of] the copies of the K, راعية الجبل; [perhaps the same as the former bird;] a yellow bird, that is found beneath the bellies of horses or similar beasts; thus in the Tekmileh; said by ISh to be a small bird like the sparrow, that alights beneath the bellies of the horses and other beasts, yellow, as though its neck and wings were tinged with saffron, its back having upon it a dinginess, or duskiness, and blackness, its head being yellow, and its زِمِكَّى [or tail] being neither long nor short; accord. to Sgh, also called الخيل ↓ رعاءة. (TA [thus written without any syll. signs: if applying to the species in the manner of a coll. gen. n., perhaps a mistranscription for رُعَاةُ الخَيْلِ].) b4: رَاعِيَةُ الشَّيْبِ, and رَوَاعِى الشَّيْبِ, (tropical:) The commencement of hoariness, (K, TA,) and the first marks thereof. (TA.) أَرْعَى [app. More, and most, merciful or compassionate; from أَرْعَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ, though by rule it should be formed from an unaugmented verb accord. to many of the grammarians: b2: and hence, being nearly syn. with أَرْفَقُ in the primary sense, syn. with this latter, or nearly so, in a secondary sense]. You say, أَمْرُ كَذَا أَرْفَقُ بِى

وَأَرْعَى عَلَىَّ [app. meaning (assumed tropical:) This affair is more, or most, easy and convenient to me]. (TA.) أُرْعُوَّةٌ The yoke that is placed upon the necks of the two bulls employed in ploughing; (AA, Sgh, K, TA;) of the dial. of Azd-Shanoo-ah. (TA.) أَرْعَاوِيَّةٌ: see رَعِيَّةٌ.

[Hence,] فَإِنَّ لِكُلٍّ بُغَاةٌ ↓ لَا تَدَعَنَّ فَتَاةً وَلَا مَرْعَاةً [Do not thou leave uncared for a young woman nor a pasturage, for there are persons that seek, or endeavour, to find and get each]: a prov. enjoining the availing oneself of an opportunity, and the setting about an affair with prudence, discretion, precaution, or sound judgment.
