ز

أبقQ. 1 زَأْبَقَ He did over dirhems, or pieces of money, with زِئْبِق [i. e. quicksilver]. (Mgh.) [It is said that] the verb [from زئبق, or rather its inf. n.,] is التَّزْبِيقُ: (TA:) [but see مَزَأْبَقٌ, below.]

زِئْبِقٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) thus pronounced by some, (S,) and this is the form preferred by ElMeydánee, and that which is in the Fs and its Expositions, (TA,) rendered quasi-coordinate to زِئْبِرٌ and ضِئْبِلٌ, (S, in which it is mentioned in art. زبق,) also pronounced زِئْبَقٌ, (S, K, [in both of which it is implied that this is the more common form, and such is the case now,]) and it is allowable to pronounce it زِيبِقٌ, (Msb,) an arabicized word, (S, K,) of well-known meaning, [i. e. Quicksilver,] (Msb, K,) originally Pers\. [Cِيوَهْ and زِيبَقْ or زِيبِقْ]; (S;) i. q. زَاوُوقٌ: (Mgh, TA:) some of it is drawn in a fluid state from its mine, and some is extracted from stones of the mine by means of fire: its smoke, or vapour, puts to flight serpents and scorpions from the house, or kills such of them as remain [therein]. (K.) b2: Hence, as being likened thereto, (TA,) زِئْبِقٌ and زِئْبَقٌ signify also (tropical:) A man who is light, inconstant, unsteady, irresolute, or fickle. (Ibn-'Abbád, TA.) زِئْبَقِىٌّ Of, or relating to, quicksilver. b2: and A seller of quicksilver.]

دِرْهَمٌ مُزَأْبَقٌ, (Lth, S, Mgh, TA,) said by Th to be correctly مَزَأْبِقٌ, with kesr to the ب, (TA in art. زبق, [but this is app. a mistake,]) or مُزَيْبَقٌ, with fet-h to the ب, (Msb,) A dirhem, or piece of money, done over with زئبق [i. e. quicksilver]: (Lth, Mgh, Msb, TA:) the vulgar say مُزَبَّقٌ. (S, Mgh.)

سرول

Q. 1 سَرْوَلَهُ, (inf. n. سَرْوَلَةٌ, TA,) He clad him with سَرَاوِيل. (S, M, K.) Q. 2 تَسَرْوَلَ He clad himself, or became clad, with سَرَاوِيل. (S, M, K.) سِرْوَالٌ: see سَرَاوِيل, latter half, in two places.

سِرْوِيلٌ: see سَرَاوِيل, in the latter half.

سِرْوَالَةٌ: see the next paragraph, latter half, in two places.

سَرَاوِيل a Pers\. word, (S, * M, Msb, * K,) originally شَلْوَار, (MA, KL, [in the former loosely expl. by the word إِزَارٌ, and so in the PS,]) of well-known meaning, (S,) [Drawers, trousers, or breeches; originally applied to such as are worn under other clothing;] a certain under-garment; (MA;) [but now applied also to such as are worn externally;] is masc. [and perfectly decl., i. e. with tenween], and fem. [and imperfectly decl., i. e. without tenween]; (S, M, Msb, K; *) sometimes masc., (Msb, K,) but not known to As otherwise than as fem.; (M;) accord. to the usage most commonly obtaining, it is imperfectly decl. and fem.: (MF:) Sb says that it is a sing., and is a foreign, or Pers\., word, arabicized; resembling, in their [the Arabs'] language, what is imperfectly decl. [as a pl. of the measure فَعَالِيلُ] when determinate and when indeterminate; but is perfectly decl. when indeterminate; and imperfectly decl. if applied as a proper name to a man, and so is its dim. if so applied, because it is fem. and of more than three letters: (S:) or it is imperfectly decl. as a proper name because it is also originally a foreign word; and its dim., ↓ سُرَيْيِيل, [for سُرَيْوِيل, the و being changed into ى, as in سَيِّدٌ for سَيْوِدٌ,] is perfectly decl. unless used as a proper name, in which latter case it is imperfectly decl. [for the reason above mentioned or] because it is fem. and determinate: (IB, TA:) it (i. e. سَرَاوِيل) is made, as a pl., imperfectly decl. when indeterminate by some of the grammarians; (S;) and it occurs in poetry imperfectly decl. [when indeterminate]: (S, M, * IB, TA:) [but this may be by poetic license:] thus in the saying of Ibn-Mukbil, أَتَى دُونَهَا ذَبُّ الرِّيَادِ كَأَنَّهُ فَتًى فَارِسِىٌّ سَرَاوِيلَ رَامِحُ [The came as an obstacle intervening in the way to her, or them, the wild bull, as though he were a Persian youth in drawers; one with a pair of horns]: (S, * IB, TA:) the former [however] is the usual way, [contrary to what has been said on the authority of MF,] though the latter is more valid: (S:) the pl. is سَرَاوِيلَاتٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) Sb says that it has no broken pl., because, if it had, it would be the same as the sing.: (M:) or, (K,) some say, (S, M, Msb,) namely those grammarians who make it imperfectly decl. when indeterminate, (S,) holding it to be [originally] an Arabic word, (Msb,) it is a pl. of which the sing. is ↓ سِرْوَالَةٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ سِرْوَالٌ (S, K) and ↓ سِرْوِيلٌ, which is [said to be] the only instance of a word of the measure فَعْوِيلٌ: (K:) [this, therefore, confirms the opinion that I hold, that the measure of this word is فِعْلِيلٌ, and that all the words of the present art. are quadriliteral-radical, agreeably with an assertion in the TA that سرل is not genuine Arabic: though it seems that all the lexicographers regard the و in the words of this art. as augmentative:] a poet says, فَلَيْسَ يَرِقُّ لِمُسْتَعْطِفِ * ↓ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ اللُّؤْمِ سِرْوَالَةٌ [Upon him is an under-garment of ignobleness, (i. e. ignobleness cleaves to him like a pair of drawers,) so that he does not become tenderhearted to one who endeavours to conciliate him]: (S, * M:) in the “ Mujarrad,” سَرَاوِيلُ is made fem., and ↓ سِرْوَالٌ masc.: (Msb:) سَرَاوِين is a dial. var.; (K;) or syn. with سَرَاوِيل; the ن in the former being asserted by Yaakoob to be a substitute for the ل [in the latter]: (M:) and شِرْوَالٌ, with ش, is likewise a dial. var. [of سِرْوَالٌ], (K,) mentioned by Es-Sijistánee, on the authority of some one or more of the Arabs: (TA:) [the common modern pronunciation is شَرْوَال: pl. شَرَاوِيل.]

سُرَيْيِيل: dim. of سَرَاوِيل, q. v. (IB, TA.) مُسَرْوَلٌ Clad with سَرَاوِيل; as also ↓ مُتَسَرْوِلٌ. (A, TA.) b2: [Hence,] طَائِرٌ مُسَرْوَلٌ (tropical:) A bird whose plumage clothes its legs. (M, L, TA.) and حَمَامَةٌ مُسَرْوَلَةٌ (tropical:) A pigeon having feathers upon its legs. (S, K, TA.) And فَرَسٌ مُسَرْوَلٌ, (K,) or فَرَسٌ أَبْلَقُ مُسَرْوَلٌ, (A'Obeyd, S, TA,) (tropical:) [A horse, or a black and white horse,] whose whiteness of the legs extends (A'Obeyd, S, K) beyond, (A'Obeyd, K, TA,) or to, (S,) the arms and thighs: (A'Obeyd, S, K:) or مُسَرْوَلٌ applied to a horse means white in the hinder part, [and black, or of some other colour, in the hind legs,] the whiteness descending to the thighs. (A, voce آزَرُ.) b3: And المُسَرْوَلُ signifies (assumed tropical:) The wild bull: because of the blackness that is in his legs. (Az, TA.) مُتَسَرْوِلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

(TA.) فَيْشٌ and ↓ فَيْشَةٌ The head [or glans] of the penis: (S, O, K:) or a swollen penis: (TA:) or ↓ the latter word has the former meaning; and فَيْشٌ is its pl., [or rather coll. gen. n.,] like as تَمْرٌ is of تَمْرَةٌ: (O:) and ↓ فَيْشَلَةٌ signifies the same as فَيْشَةٌ; and some say that its ل is augmentative: (TA:) or فَيْشٌ signifies a weak فَيْشَلَة.

1 بَلَّهُ (S, M, &c.,) aor. ـُ (S, M,) inf. n. بَلٌّ (M, Msb, K) and بِلَّةٌ, (M, K,) He moistened it (S, M, K) with water (M, Msb, K) &c.; (M;) and in like manner, ↓ بلّلهُ, (S, M, K,) but signifying he moistened it much. (S, TA.) b2: [Hence,] بَلَّتِ الإِبِلُ أَغْمَارَهَا [The camels damped their thirst;] i. e., drank a little. (TA in art. غمر.) b3: [Hence also,] بَلَّ رَحِمَهُ, (T, S, M, K,) aor. ـُ (T, M,) inf. n. بَلٌّ (with fet-h, TA [in the CK it has kesr]) and بِلَالٌ, (M, K,) (tropical:) He made close [or he refreshed] his ties of relationship by behaving with goodness and affection and gentleness to his kindred; syn. وَصَلَهَا, (T, S, M, K,) and نَدَّاهَا: (T:) for, as some things are conjoined and commixed by moisture, and become disunited by dryness, بَلٌّ is metaphorically used to denote conjunction, as above, and يُبْسٌ to denote the contrary. (TA.) A poet says, وَالرِّحْمَ فابْلُلْهَا بِخَيْرِ البُلَّانْ فَإِنَهَااشْتُقَّتْ مِنِ اسْمِ الرَّحْمٰنْ [(tropical:) And the ties of relationship, make thou them close &c. by the best mode, or modes, of doing so; for the name thereof is derived from the name of the Compassionate]: here ↓البُلَّان may be a noun in the sing. number, like غُفْرَانٌ, or it may be pl. of بَلَلٌ, which may be either a subst. or an. inf. n., for some inf. ns. have pls., as شُغْلٌ and عَقْلٌ and مَرَضٌ. (M.) And it is said in a trad., بُلُّوا أَرْحَامَكُمْ وَلَوْ بِالسَّلَامِ (tropical:) Make ye close [or refresh ye] your ties of relationship &c., though but, or if only, by salutation; syn. صِلُوهَا, (M,) or نَدُّوهَا بِالصِّلَةِ. (S.) And hence the saying in another trad., إِذَ اسْتَشَنَّ مَا بَيْنَكَ وَ بَيْنَ اللّٰهِ فَابْلُلْهُ بِالإِحْسَانِ إِلَى عِبَادَهِ (tropical:) [When the tie between thee and God wears out, repair thou it, or refresh thou it, by beneficence to his servants]. (TA.) [See also بِلَالٌ.] b4: بَلَّكَ اللّٰهُ بِابْنٍ, (S, M, K,) and ابْنًا, (M, K,) (assumed tropical:) May God give thee a son. (S, M, K, TA.) Hence, perhaps, the phrase, بُلَّتْ يَدَاكَ بِهِ as meaning (assumed tropical:) Thou was given it. (Har p. 479.) You say also, بَلَلْتُهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) I gave to him. (T.) And ↓ لَا تَبْلُكَ عِنْدِى بَالَّةٌ, and ↓ بَلَالٌ, (T, S, M, K, [but in the K عِنْدَنَا, and “ or ” for “ and,” and in the CK لا تَبَلُّكَ,]) (tropical:) No bounty, (S,) no good, or no benefit, shall betide thee from me, (T, S, K, TA,) nor will I profit thee, nor believe thee. (T.) b5: بَلُّوا They sowed land. (ISh, T, K.) A2: [بَلَّ as an intrans. verb perhaps primarily signifies It was, or became, moist; and has for its sec. Pers\. بَلِلْتَ or بَلَلْتَ, and for its aor. ـَ or بَلِّ, and for its inf. n. بَلَلٌ, and probably بِلَّةٌ &c. mentioned with that noun below. b2: And hence,] بَلَّتِ الرِّيحُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. بُلُولٌ, The wind was cold and moist. (M, K.) [See بَلِيلٌ.] b3: [And hence, probably, as though originally said of one who had had a fever,] بَلَّ مِنْ مَرَضِهِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. بَلٌّ (S, M, K) and بَلَلٌ and بُلُولٌ; (M, K) and ↓ ابلّ, and ↓ استبلّ; (S, M, K;) He recovered from his disease: (S, M:) and ↓ ابتلّ and ↓ تبلّل he became in a good condition after leanness, or meagerness: (M,Z:) or all have this latter signification: and the second (ابلّ) has the former also. (K.) b4: And بَلَّ, (M, K,) aor. ـِ (M,) inf. n. بُلُولٌ; and ↓ ابلّ; He (a man, TA) escaped, or became safe or secure, (M, K,) from difficulty, distress, or straitness. (TA.) b5: بَلَّ فِى الأَرْض, (Msb, K, * TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. بَلٌّ; (Msb;) and ↓ ابلّ; (M, K;) He (a man, M) went away in, or into, the land, or country. (M, Msb, K.) And بَلَّتْ نَاقَتُهُ His she-camel went away. (TA.) And بَلَّتْ مَطِيَّتُهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهَا, (Fr, T, TA,) and على ↓ ابلّت وجها, (K,) His camel, or riding-camel, ran away, or went away, at random, to pasture, straying; syn. هَمَتْ ضَالَّةً. (Fr, T, K, TA. [In the CK, همت, which, as is said in the TA, is without teshdeed, is written هَمَّتْ.]) A3: بَلِلْتُ مِنْهُ, (As, T, S, &c.,) inf. n. بَلَلٌ, (M,) I got him; got possession of him; (As, T, S, M, K;) got him in my hand. (S.) One says, لَئِنْ بَلَّتْ بِكَ يَدِى لَا تُفَارِقُنِى أَوْ تُؤَدِّىَ حَقِّى [Assuredly if my hand get hold of thee, thou shalt not quit me unless thou give up, or pay, my right, or due]. (S.) and hence the prov., مَا بَلَلْتُ مِنْ فُلَانٍ بِأَفْوَقَ نَاصِلٍ [I did not get, in such a one, a man like an arrow with a broken notch and without a head]; meaning I got a perfect man; one sufficient. (Sh, T.) b2: Also, (T,) or بَلِلْتُهُ, (M, K,) I kept, or clave, to him, (T, M, K,) namely, a man, (T, K,) and constantly associated with him. (T.) And بَلَّ بِالشَّيْءِ, inf. n. بَلٌّ, He became devoted, or attached, to the thing, and kept to it constantly. (TA.) b3: And بَلِلْتُ مِنْهُ, (M, K,) aor. ـَ (TA,) inf. n. بَلَلٌ and بَلَالَةٌ and بُلُولٌ, I was tried by him (مُنِيتُ بِهِ [app. meaning بِحُبِّهِ by love of him]), and loved him (عَلِقْتُهُ [in the CK عَلَقْتُهُ]); as also بَلَلْتُ به, (AA, M, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. بُلُولٌ (AA, TA.) And بَلِلْتُ بِهِ I was tried by him, as though by fire, (صَلِيتُ به, [in the CK صَلَيْتُ,]) and suffered distress, or misery, or fatigue (شَقِيتُ, for which شُفِيتُ is erroneously put in the copies of the K: TA). (M, K. *) b4: مَا بَلَلْتُ بِهِ, (K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. بَلَلٌ, (TA,) I did not light on, or meet with, or find, nor know, him, or it; expl. by مَا أَصَبْتُهُ وَ لَا عَلِمْتُهُ. (K.) A4: بَلَّ, (Th, M, K,) inf. n. بَلَلٌ, (Th, S, M, K,) He (a man) was, or became, such as is termed أَبَلّ [which epithet see below]. (Th, S, M, K.) 2 بَلَّّ see 1, first sentence.4 ابلّ It (wood, or a branch or twig,) had the sap, (المَآء, K,) or the produce of the rain, (O,) flowing in it. (O, K.) b2: See also بَلَّ, in four places.

A2: He (a man) resisted, or withstood, and overcame. (As, T, S. [See also أَبَلَ.]) And ابلّ عَلَيْهِ He overcame him. (M, K.)

[See مُبِلٌّ.]) A3: أَبْلَلْتُهُ I made him to go away.

(M, K.) b2: See also بَلَّ.10 إِسْتَبْلَ3َ see بَلَّ.

R. Q. 1 بَلْبَلَ, inf. n. بَلْبَلَةٌ and بِلْبَالٌ, (M, K,) the latter with kesr, (TA,) [but written in the CK with fet-h,] He put people in motion; and roused, or excited, them. (M, K.) b2: Also, (T,) inf. n. بَلْبَلَةٌ, (K,) He scattered, dispersed, or put asunder, his goods, commodities, or householdutensils and furniture. (IAar, T, K. * [In the CK, والمَتاعُ is erroneously put for وَالمَتَاعِ.]) b3: And He divided, or disunited, opinions. (Fr, T, K; but only the inf. n. of the verb in this sense is mentioned.) b4: And He (God) [mixed or confounded or] made discordant the tongues, or languages, of a people.

(Har p. 94.) b2: تَبَلْبَلَتِ الأَلْسُنُ The tongues, or languages, became mixed, or confounded. (S, K.) A2: تَبَلْبَلَتِ الإِبِلُ الكَلَأَ The camels went on seeking the herbage, or pasture, and left not of it aught. (S, K.) بَلْ is a particle of digression: (Mughnee, K:) or, accord. to Mbr, it denotes emendation, wherever it occurs, in the case of a negation or an affirmation: (T, TA:) or it is a word of emendation, and denoting digression from that which precedes; as also بَنْ, in which the ن is a substitute for the ل, because بل is of frequent occurrence, and بن is rare; or, as IJ says, the latter may be an independent dial. var. (M.) When it is followed by a proposition, the meaning of the digression is either the cancelling of what precedes, as in وَقَالُوا اتَّخَذَ الرَّحْمٰنُ وَلَدًا سُبْحَانَهُ بَلْ عِبَادٌ مُكْرَمُونَ [And they said, “The Compassionate hath gotten offspring: ” extolled be his freedom from that which is derogatory from his glory! nay, or nay rather, or nay but, they are honoured servants (Kur xxi. 26)], or transition from one object of discourse to another, as in قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَنْ تَزَكَّى وَ ذَكَرَ اسْمَ رَبِّهِ فَصَلَّى

بَلْ تُؤْثِرُونَ الْحَيَاةَ الدُّنْيَا [He hath attained felicity who hath purified himself, and celebrated the name of his Lord, and prayed: but ye prefer the present life (Kur lxxxvii. 14-16)]: (Mughnee, K: *) and in all such cases it is an inceptive particle; not a conjunctive. (Mughnee.) When it is followed by a single word, it is a conjunction, (S, * Msb, * Mughnee, K,) and requires that word to be in the same case as the word before it: (S:) and if preceded by a command or an affirmation, (Mughnee, K,) as in اِضْرَبْ زَيْدًا بَلْ عَمْرًا [Beat thou Zeyd: no, 'Amr], (Msb, Mughnee, K,) and قَامَ زَيْدٌ بَلْ عَمْرٌو [Zeyd stood: no, 'Amr], (M, Mughnee, K,) or جَآءَنِى أَخُوكَ بَلْ أَبُوكَ [Thy brother came to me: no, thy father], (S,) it makes what precedes it to be as though nothing were said respecting it, (S, * Msb, * Mughnee, K,) making the command or affirmation to relate to what follows it: (S, * Msb, * Mughnee:) [and similar to these cases is the case in which it is preceded by an interrogation: see أَمْ as syn. with this particle:] but when it is preceded by a negation or a prohibition, it is used to confirm the meaning of what precedes it and to assign the contrary of that meaning to what follows it, (Mughnee, K,) as in مَا قَامَ زَيْدٌ عَمْرٌو [Zeyd stood not, but 'Amr stood], (Mughnee,) or مَا رَأَيْتُ زَيْدًا بَلْ عَمْرًا, [I saw not Zeyd, but I saw 'Amr], (S,) and لَا يَقُمْ زَيْدٌ بَلْ عَمْرٌو [Let not Zeyd stand, but let 'Amr stand]. (Mughnee.) Mbr and 'Abd-El-Wárith allow its being used to transfer the meaning of the negation and the prohibition to what follows it; so that, accord. to them, one may say, مَازَيْدٌ قَائِمًا بَلْ قَاعِدًا [as meaning Zeyd is not standing: no, is not sitting], and بَلْ قَاعِدٌ [but is sitting]; the meaning being different [in the two cases]. (Mughnee, K. *) The Koofees disallow its being used as a conjunction after anything but a negation [so in the Mughnee, but in the K a prohibition,] or the like thereof; so that one should not say, ضَرَبْتُ زَيْدًا بَلْ إِيَّاكَ [I beat Zeyd: no, thee]. (Mughnee, K.) Sometimes لَا is added before it, to corroborate the meaning of digression, after an affirmation, as in the saying, وَجْهُكَ البَدْرُ لَا بَلِ الشَّمْسُ لَوْ لَمْ يُقْضَ لِلشَّمْسِ كَسْفَةٌ وَ أُفُولُ [Thy face is the full moon: no, but it would be the sun, were it not that eclipse and setting are appointed to happen to the sun]: and to corroborate what precedes it, after a negation, as in وَ مَا هَجَرْتُكَ لَا بَلْ زَادَنِى شَغَفًا هَجْرٌ وَ بَعْدٌ تَرَاخَى لَا إِلَى أَجَلِ [And I did not abandon thee, or have not abandoned thee: no, but abandonment and distance, protracted, not to an appointed period, increased, or have increased, my heart-felt love]. (Mughnee, K. *) b2: Sometimes it is used to denote the passing from one subject to another without cancelling [what precedes it], and is syn. with وَ, as in the saying in the Kur [lxxxv. 20 and 21], وَاللّٰهُ مِنْ, وَ رَائِهِمْ مُحِيطٌ بَلْ هُوَ قُرْآنٌ مَجِيدٌ [And God from behind them is encompassing: and it is a glorious Kur-án: or here it may mean إِنَّ, as in an ex. below]: and to this meaning it is made to accord in the saying, لَهُ عَلَىَّ دِينَارٌ بَلْ دِرْهَمٌ [I owe him a deenár and a dirhem]. (Msb.) b3: In the fol-lowing saying in the Kur [xxxviii. 1],وَالْقُرْآنِ ذِى

الذِّكْرِبَلِ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا فِى عِزَّةٍ وَشِقَاقٍ, it is said to signify إِنَّ; [so that the meaning is, By the Kur-án possessed of eminence, verily they who have disbelieved are in a state of pride and opposition;] therefore the oath applies to it. (Akh, S.) b4: Sometimes the Arabs use it in breaking off a saying and commencing another; and thus a man commences with it a citation, or recitation, of verse; in which case, it does not form any part of the first verse, but is a sign of the breaking off, or ending, of what precedes. (Akh, S.) b5: Sometimes it is put in the place of رُبَّ, (S, Mughnee,) as in the saying of the rájiz, بَلْ مَهْمَهٍ قَطَعْتُ بَعْدَ مَهْمَهٍ

[Many a far-extending desert have I traversed, after a far-extending desert]. (S: [and a similar ex. is given in the Mughnee.]) b6: What is deficient in this word [supposing it to be originally of three letters] is unknown; and so in the cases of هَلْ and قَدْ: it may be a final و or ى or they may be originally بَلّ and هَلّ and قَدّ. (Akh, S.) بَلٌّ Moist, or containing moisture: or rather moistened; being, app., an inf. n. used in the sense of a pass. part. n. ; like خَلْقٌ in the sense of مَخْلُوقٌ. Hence,] رِيحٌ بَلَّةٌ and ↓بَلِيلٌ and ↓بَلِيلَةٌ A wind in which is moisture: (S:) or the last, a wind mixed with feeble rain: (T:) and the second, a wind cold with moisture; (M, K;) or the same, a wind cold with rain; (A, TA;) the north wind, as though it sprinkled water by reason of its coldness: (TA:) and ↓ بَلَلٌ also signifies a cold north wind: (Ibn-'Abbád, TA:) بَلِيلٌ is used alike as sing. and pl. : (K:) it has no pl. (M.) A2: بَلٌّ بِشَىْءٍ A man (M) devoted, or attached, to a thing, and keeping to it constantly. (M, K. [In the CK and in my MS. copy of the K, اللَّهْجُ is erroneously put for اللَّهِجُ.]) b2: And بَلٌّ, alone, Much given to the deferring of payment to his creditors, by repeated promises; (T;) withholding, by swearing, what he possesses of things that are the rightful property of others. (IAar, T, K.) See also أَبَلٌّ, in two places.

بِلٌّ Allowable, or lawful; i. e., to be taken, or let alone, or done, or made use of, or possessed: (T, S, M, K:) so in the dial. of Himyer: (T, S. M:) or a remedy; (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, K;) from the phrase بَلَّ مِنْ مَرَضِهِ [q. v.]: (A' Obeyd, T, S, M:) or it is an imitative sequent to حِلٌّ, (M, K,) as some say: (M:) so As thought until he heard that it was said to be of the dial. of Himyer in the first of the senses explained above: (S, M:) A'Obeyd and ISk say that it may not be so because it is conjoined with حِلٌّ by وَ: (T:) and A'Obeyd says, We have seldom found an imitative sequent conjoined by و. (TA.) Hence the phrase, هُوَ لَكَ حِلٌّ وَبِلٌّ It is to thee lawful and allowable: or lawful and a remedy. (M, K. *) And hence the saying of El-'Abbás the son of 'Abd-El-Muttalib, respecting [the well of] Zemzem, هِىَ لِشَارِبٍ حِلٌّ وَ بِلٌّ It is to a drinker lawful &c. (T, S, M.) بَلَّةٌ [A single act of moistening. b2: And hence,] The least sprinkling (أَدْنَى بَلَلٍ lit. the least moisture) of good. (TA in art. هل.) You say, جَآءَنَا فُلَانٌ فَلَمْ يَأْتِنَا بِهَلَّةٍ وَلَا بَلَّةٍ [Such a one came to us and did not bring us anything to rejoice us nor the least sprinkling of good]: هلّة, accord. to ISK, being from الفَرَحُ and الاِسْتِهْلَالُ, and بلّة from البَلْلُ and الخَيْرُ. (S.) And مَا أَصَابَ هَلَّةً

وَلَا بَلَّةً He did not obtain, or has not obtained, anything. (S.) b3: Wealth, or competence: (Fr, TA:) or wealth, or competence, after poverty; (Fr, T, K, TA;) as also ↓ بُلَّى. (K.) b4: Remains of herbage or pasture; (K;) as also ↓ بُلَّةٌ. (Fr, T, K.) b5: The freshness of youth; as also ↓ بُلَّةٌ; (M, K; *) but the former word is the more approved. (M.) b6: See also an ex. voce بَلَلٌ.

بُلَّةٌ: see بَلَلٌ, in two places: b2: and see also بَلَّةٌ, in two places. b3: Also A state of moisture. (M.) b4: The moisture of fresh pasture. (S, M, K.) The rájiz (Iháb Ibn-'Omeyr, TA) says, describing [wild] asses, وَ فَارَقَتْهَا بُلَّةُ الأَوَابِلِ حَتَّى إِذَا أَهْرَأْنَ بِالأَصَائِلِ meaning that they went in the cool of the evening to the water after that the herbage had dried up: الاوابل means the wild animals that are satisfied with green pasture, so as to be in no need of water. (S.) بِلَّةٌ: see بَلَلٌ, in two places. b2: Also Good, good fortune, prosperity, or wealth: and sustenance, or means of subsistence. (M, K.) b3: Health; soundness; or freedom from disease. (T, K, TA.) b4: A repast prepared on the occasion of a wedding, or on any occasion. (Fr, K.) b5: (tropical:) The tongue's fluency, and chasteness of speech: (K, TA:) or its readiness of diction or expression, and facility; (M;) and [so in the M, but in the K “ or,”] its falling upon the [right] places of utterance of the letters, (T, M, A, K,) and its regular and uniform continuance of speech, (T, M, K,) and its facility. (K.) You say, مَا أَحْسَنٌ بِلَّةَ لِسَانِهِ (tropical:) [How good is the fluency, &c., of his tongue!]. (T, M, TA.) بَلَلٌ Moisture; (S, M, Msb, K;) as also ↓ بِلَّةٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ بِلَالٌ and ↓ بُلَالَةٌ (M, K) [and several other dial. vars. occurring in phrases in this paragraph]: or ↓ بِلَّةٌ signifies an inferior, or inconsiderable, degree of moisture; (Lth, T, K; [an ambiguity in the K in this place has occasioned several mistakes in Freytag's Lex. voce بَلَلٌ;]) and ↓ بِلَالٌ is an anomalous pl. of this word; (M, TA;) and is pl. also of ↓ بُلَّةٌ: (S, TA:) and بُلَّانٌ, occurring in a verse cited above (see 1) may be pl. of بَلَلٌ. (M.) [Using syns. of بَلَلٌ in the sense explained above,] you say, طَوَيْتُ

↓ السِّقَآءَ عَلَى بُلُلَتِهِ, (S, K,) and ↓ بُلَلَتِهِ, (K,) or ↓ بَلَلَتِهِ, (T, M,) I folded the skin while it was moist, (T, S, M, K,) before it should break in pieces, (T,) or lest it should break in pieces.

(T.) b2: Abundance of herbage; or of the goods, conveniences, or comforts, of life. (TA.) b3: See also بَلٌّ. b4: مَا أَحْسَنَ بَلَلَهُ How good is his adornment of himself! or his manner of undertaking a task, or taking upon himself a responsibility!

(K.) دِرْهَمٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) of the measure فِعْلَلٌ, (Msb, MF,) of which it has been said that there are only three other instances, but there are many more; (MF;) an arabicized word, (S, Msb,) from the Pers\. [دِرَمْ]; (S;) also pronounced ↓ دِرْهِمٌ, (S, Msb, K,) but this is of rare occurrence; (TA;) and ↓ دِرْهَامٌ, (S, K,) which is more rare; (TA;) A certain silver coin; (Mgh, Msb;) like as دِينَارٌ signifies a certain gold coin: (Mgh:) [and the weight thereof; i. e. a drachm, or dram:] its weight is six دَوَانِيق [or dániks]; (Msb, and K in art. مك;) i. e., the weight of the دِرْهَم إِسْلَامِىّ: but in the Time of Ignorance, some dirhems were light, being four دوانيق; and these were called طَبَرِيَّةٌ: and some were heavy, being eight دوانيق; and these were called عَبْدِيَّةٌ, or بَغْلِيَّةٌ: and of these two they made two that were equal; so that each درهم was six دوانيق: this is said to have been done by 'Omar: or, accord. to another account, some dirhems were of the weight of twenty carats, and were called the weight of ten [i. e. of ten dániks]; and some were of the weight of ten [carats], and were called the weight of five; and some were of the weight of twelve [carats], and were called the weight of six; and they put the three weights together, and called the third part thereof the weight of seven: and one of the weights of the درهم before El-Islám was twelve carats, which is six دوانيق: but the درهم اسلامىّ is sixteen carats; the دانق of this being a carat and two thirds: (Msb:) or dirhems should be fourteen carats [i. e. seven dániks]; ten being of the weight of seven مَثَاقِيل [or mithkáls]: in the Time of Ignorance, some were heavy, [equal to] مثاقيل; and some were light, [called]

طَبَرِيَّةٌ; and when they were coined in the age of El-Islám, they made of the heavy and the light two dirhems, so that ten became equal to seven مثاقيل: A 'Obeyd says that this was done in the time [of the dynasty] of the sons of Umeiyeh: (El-Karkhee, cited in the Mgh:) [see also De Sacy's “ Chrest. Arabe,” sec. ed., vol. ii. p. 110 of the Arabic text, and p. 282 of the transl.; where it is further stated, on the authority of Ibn-Khaldoon, that the دِرْهَم مَــغْرِبِــىّ was three دوانيق; and the يَمَنِىّ, one دانق; and, as is said in the Msb, that 'Omar adopted the mean between the بغلىّ and the طبرىّ, making the درهم to be six:] the pl. (of درهم, S) is دَرَاهِمُ and (of درهام, S) دَرَاهِيمُ. (S, K.) [The former of these pls. is often used as signifying Money, cash, or coin, in an absolute sense.] The dim. is ↓ دُرَيْهِمٌ and ↓ دُرَيْهِيمٌ: the latter held by Sb to be anomalous; for he says that it is as though it were formed from دِرْهَامٌ, though this was not used by them. (TA.) b2: Hence, as being likened thereto, [i. e., to the coin thus called,] (TA,) دِرْهَمٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) A حَدِيقَة [app. as meaning a round piece of land surrounded by a fence or the like, or by elevated land; for this is one of the significations of حَدِيقَةٌ]. (K.) [It is said that] this is taken from the saying of 'Antarah, [describing shower of copious rain,] فَتَرَكْنَ كُلَّ حَدِيقَةٍ كَالدِّرْهَمِ [So that they left every ridged-round spot of ground like the درهم]. (TA.) [But accord. to one reading, he said, كُلَّ قَرَارَةٍ; meaning, as is said in the EM, p. 227, “every round hollow; ” and likening such a hollow to the درهم because of its roundness, and the clearness and whiteness of its water.]

(TA.) [Hence, as it seems to be indicated in the S and A, or from شَعْبٌ meaning “ a tribe,” as it seems to be indicated in the Ham p. 538,] one says, تَفَرَّقَ شَعْبُهُمْ, (S,) or شَتَّ شَعْبُهُمْ, (A, Ham,) (tropical:) [Their union became dissolved, or broken up; or their tribe became separated;] meaning they became separated after being congregated: (S, Ham:) and اِلْتَأَمَ شَعْبُهُمْ (S, A, Ham) (tropical:) [Their separation became closed up, or their tribe drew together;] meaning they drew together after being separated.

[See also what next follows.]4 اشعب He died: (S, K: [see also 3:]) or (so in the S and TA, but in the K “ and ”) he separated himself from another or others, never to return; (S, K;) as also ↓ شعّب or ↓ شَعَبَ, accord. to different copies of the K, the latter as in the L. (TA.) A poet says, (S,) namely, En-Nábighah El-Jaadee, (IB, TA.) وَكَانُوا أُنَاسًا مِنْ شُعُوبٍ فَأَشْعَبُوا (S, IB, TA,) or وَكَانُوا شُعُوبًا مِنْ أُنَاسٍ, accord. to different readings: [app. meaning, And they were men of divided races or tribes, or were divided races or tribes of men; so they perished; or separated, never to return:] IB says, after mentioning the former reading, i. e. they were of men who should perish; so they perished: having previously mentioned the latter reading, and added, i. e. they were of those whom شعوب should overtake. (TA. [IB's explanations seem at first sight to indicate that he read شَعُوبَ and شَعُوبًا; neither of which is admissible: each of his explanations app. relates to both readings; as though he understood the poet to mean, they were men separated from different tribes, to be overtaken by others; so they perished.]) 5 تشعّب and ↓ انشعب are quasi-pass. verbs, the former of شَعَّبَ and the latter of شَعَبَ: (TA:) [the former, therefore, is most correctly to be regarded and used as intensive in its significations, or as relating to several things or persons: but it is said that] both signify alike: [app. It became collected; it became brought, gathered, or drawn, together; or it became united: and also] it became separated, put apart or asunder, divided, disunited, or dispersed or scattered: (S, K:) and it, or he, became distant, or remote. (K.) One says, تَشَعَّبُوا فِى طَلَبِ المِيَاهِ [They became separated, &c., or they separated themselves, &c., in search of the waters], and فِى الغَارَاتِ [in predatory excursions]. (TA.) And عَنِّى ↓ انشعب فُلَانٌ Such a one became distant, or remote, from me; or withdrew to a distance, or for away, from me. (TA.) And الطَّرِيقُ ↓ انشعب [and تشعّب] The road separated. (S, A, Msb.) And ↓ انشعب النَّهْرُ and تشعّب The river separated [or branched forth] into other rivers. (TA.) And ↓ انشعبت

(Msb.) See also 2. One says also, تشعّب أَمْرُ الرَّجُلِ (assumed tropical:) [The state of affairs of the man became broken up, discomposed, deranged, disorganized, or (agreeably with another explanation of the verb in what follows) rendered unsound, impaired, or marred]. (A.) b2: Also ↓ the latter verb, [or each,] It became closed up; [or repaired by having a crack or cracks closed up, or by being pieced;] said of a cracked thing: (TA:) and ↓ both verbs, i. q. اِنْصَلَحَ [which means, in a general sense, it became rectified, repaired, mended, amended, adjusted, or put into a right, or proper, state; &c.; but I have not found this verb (انصلح) in its proper art. in any of the Lexicons]: (K, TA:) and ↓ the latter signifies also it became cracked; (A;) [and in like manner the former, said of a number of things; or it became cracked in several places when said of a single thing: and hence ↓ both signify, in a general sense, it became corrupted, rendered unsound, impaired, or marred; a meaning which may justly be assigned to the former verb in the phrase mentioned in the next preceding sentence.]7 إِنْشَعَبَ see 5, in nine places: and see also 3.8 إِشْتَعَبَ see 1, in the former half of the paragraph.

شَعْبٌ inf. n. of شَعَبَ [q. v.]. (Msb.) b2: [Used as a simple subst., it signifies Collection, or union: and also separation, division, or disunion; and] a state of separation or division or disunion; (K, TA;) as also ↓ شُعْبَةٌ: (S, TA:) pl. of the former شُعُوبٌ. (TA.) b3: And [hence, perhaps, as implying both union and division,] Such as is divided [into sub-tribes], of the tribes of the Arabs and foreigners: (S: [in my copy of the Msb, ما انقسمت فيه قبائل العرب, as though it meant the tribes of the Arabs collectively, agreeably with another explanation to be mentioned below; but I think that there may be a mistranscription in this case:]) pl. شُعُوبٌ: (S, Msb:) or it signifies, as some say, (Msb,) or signifies also, (S,) a great tribe; syn. قَبِيلَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ, (S, A, K,) or حَىٌّ عَظِيمٌ; (Msb;) the parent of the [tribes called] قَبَائِل, to which they refer their origin, and which comprises them: (S:) or, as some say, a great tribe (حَىٌّ عَظِيمٌ) forming a branch of a قَبِيلَة: or a قَبِيلَة itself: (TA:) A' Obeyd says, on the authority of Ibn-El-Kelbee, on the authority of his father, that the شَعْب is greater than the قَبِيلَة; next to which is the فَصِيلَة; then, the عَمَارَة; then, the بَطْن; then, the فَخِذ: (S, TA:) but IB says that the true order is that which Ez-Zubeyr Ibn-Bekkár has stated, and is as follows: (TA:) [i. e.] the genealogies of the Arabs consist of six degrees; (Msb;) first, the شَعْب; then, the قَبِيلَة; then, the عَمَارَة, (Msb, TA,) with fet-h and with kesr, to the ع; (Msb;) then, the بَطْن; then, the فَخِذ; and then, the فَصيلَة: thus, Khuzeymeh is a شعب; and Kináneh, a قبيلَة; and Kureysh, an عمارة; and Kuseí, a بطن; and Háshim, a فخذ; and El-'Abbás, a فصيلة: (Msb, TA:) and Aboo-Usámeh says that these classes are agreeable with the order obtaining in the structure of man; the شعب is the greatest of them, derived from the شَعْب [or suture] of the head; next is the قبيلة, from the قبيلة [which is a term applied to any one of the four principal bones] of the head; then, the عمارة, which is the breast; then, the بطن [or belly]; then, the فخذ [or thigh]; and then, the فصيلة, which is the shank: to these some add the عَشِتيرَة, which consists of few in comparison with what are before mentioned: (TA:) and some add after this the رَهْط: some also add the جِذْم before the شعب: (TA in art. بطن:) the pl. is as above. (TA.) It signifies also A nation, people, race, or family of mankind; syn. جِيلٌ; as expl. by IM and others: in the K, [and in a copy of the A,] erroneously, جَبَل [a mountain]: (TA:) but it is [strangely] said by Aboo-'Obeyd El-Bekree that accord. to all except Bundár, the word in this sense is ↓ شِعْبٌ, with kesr. (MF.) And the pl., شُعُوبٌ, is [said to be] especially applied to denote the foreigners (العَجَم): (TA:) [thus it is said that] the phrase, in a trad., إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الشُّعُوبِ

أَسْلَمَ means [Verily a man] of the foreigners (العَجَم) [became a Muslim: but see الشُّعُوبِيَّةُ]. (S.) b4: Also, [as implying separation,] Distance, or remoteness. (A, K.) So in the phrase شَعْبُ الدَّارِ [The distance, or remoteness, of the abode, or dwelling]. (TA.) b5: And A crack (S, A, K, TA) in a thing, (S,) which the شَعَّاب repairs.

(S.) b7: [Hence, perhaps,] هُمَا شَعْبَانِ (assumed tropical:) They two are likes [or like each other]. (S.) b8: See also شِعْبٌ.

A2: Also Distant, or remote; (K;) as in the phrase مَآءٌ شَعْبٌ [Distant, or remote, water]: pl. شُعُوبٌ. (TA.) شُعْبٌ: see the dual شُعْبَانِ voce شُعْبَةٌ.

And A water-course, or place in which water flows, in [a low, or depressed, tract, such as is called] a بَطْن of land, (ISh, A, O, K,) having two elevated borders, and in width equal to the stature of a man lying down, and sometimes between the two faces, or acclivities, of two mountains. (ISh, O.) Or it signifies, (K,) or signifies also, (A,) A ravine, or gap, [or pass,] between two mountains. (A, K.) b2: Also [A reef of rocks in the sea: so in the present day: or] a زِرْبَة or زَرَبَة (accord. to different copies of the K in art. جهن [but neither of these two words do I find in their proper art. in any Lex.]) in the sea, such as is connected with the shore: if not connected with the shore, a bowshot distant, it is called جُهْنٌ. (K and TA in art. جهن.) b3: And A brand, or mark made with a hot iron, (S, K,) upon camels, (K,) peculiar to the Benoo-Minkar, in form resembling the [hooked stick called] مِحْجَن: (S:) or a brand upon the thigh, lengthwise, [consisting of] two lines meeting at the top and separated at the bottom: (ISh, TA:) or a brand united [at the upper part and] at the lower part separated: (Aboo-' Alee in the “ Tedhkireh,” TA: [but there is an omission here, so that the reverse may perhaps be meant:]) or a brand upon the neck, like the مِحْجَن: (Suh in the R, TA:) in a marginal note in the copy of the L, it is said that شعب signifying a brand is with kesr to the ش and with fet-h [i. e. شِعْبٌ and ↓ شَعْبٌ]. (TA.) b4: See also شَعْبٌ. b5: [And see the pl. شِعَابٌ below.]

شَعَبٌ Width, or distance, (A, K,) or great width or distance, (S,) between the horns (S, A, K) of a goat (S, TA) and of a gazelle, (TA,) and between the shoulders, (A, K,) and between two branches. (A.) [See also 1, last signification.]

(TA.) And شُعَبُ الغُصْنِ The divaricating, or straggling, [branchlets, or] extremities [or shoots or stalks] of the branch. (TA.) And [hence] عَصًا فِى رَأْسِهَا شُعْبَتَانِ [A staff having at his head two forking portions or projections]; (A, TA;) and Az mentions, as heard by him from the Arabs, ↓ شُعْبَانِ, without ت, instead of شُعْبَتَانِ in this phrase.

Nor did I think that the vicissitudes of fortune would divide one whole body of men into many parties:] but Az disapproves of this explanation, and says that شُعَب here means Intentions, designs, or purposes: he says that the poet describes tribes assembled together in the [season called] رَبِيع, who, when they desired to return to the watering-places, differed in their intentions, or designs; wherefore he says, Nor did I think that various intentions would divide [one whole body of men who before had] a consentient intention.

“ a branch,” and as meaning duties, and relations: (Freytag's Arab. Prov., i. 653:)] but El-Mundhiree says that شِعَابِى is a mistranscription: the other reading is سَعَاتِى, meaning “ my expending upon my family. ” (Meyd. [See also سَعَاةٌ, in art. سعو and سعى.]) شَعُوبُ, (S, A, Msb, K,) without the article ال, and imperfectly decl., (Msb,) and الشَّعُوبُ, (A, Msb, K,) with the article, and perfectly decl., (Msb,) but several authors disallow this latter, accounting it wrong; (TA;) a name for Death; (S, A, * Msb, K; *) so called because it separates men: (S, Msb:) the former is a proper name: (Msb:) J says [in the S] that it is determinate, and does not admit the article ال: in the L, it is said that شَعُوبُ and الشَّعُوبُ both signify as above; and that in either case it may be originally an epithet, being like the epithets قَتُول and ضَرُوب; and if so, the article in this case is as in العَبَّاسُ and الحَسَنُ and الحٰرِثُ: and this opinion is confirmed by what is said of its derivation: but he who says شَعُوب, without the article, makes the word a pure substantive, and deprives it literally of the character of an epithet; wherefore the article is not necessarily attached to it, as it is not to عَبَّاس and حٰرِث; yet the essence of an epithet is in it still, as in the instance of جَابِرُ بْنُ حَبَّةَ, a name for “ bread,” so called because it reinvigorates the hungry; and as in وَاسِط, [a certain town] so called, accord. to Sb, because midway between El-'Irák [' Irák el-'Ajam] and El-Basrah: thus in the L. (TA.) One says of a person when he has been at the point of death and then escaped, أَقَصَّتْهُ شَعُوبُ [Death became near to him]. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., فَمَا زِلْتُ وَاضِعًا رِجْلِى

عَلَى خَدِّهِ حَتَّى أَزَرْتُهُ شَعُوبَ, i. e. [And I ceased not putting my foot upon his cheek until] I made death to visit him. (TA.) شَعِيبٌ A [leathern water-bag such as is called]

مَزَادَة [q. v.]; (A'Obeyd, S, K;) as also رَاوِيَةٌ and سَطِيحَةٌ: (A'Obeyd, S:) or one that has been repaired, or pieced: (TA:) or one that is made of two hides: (K:) or one that is made of two hides facing each other, without فِئَام at their corners; فئام in [the making of] مَزَايِد being the taking of the hide and folding it, and then adding at the sides what will widen it: or one that is pieced (تُفْأَمُ) with a third skin, between the two skins, that it may be rendered wider: or one that is made of two pieces joined together: (TA:) or one that is sewed (مَخْرُوزَة, K and TA, in the CK مَحْزُوزَة,) on both sides: (K:) called thus because one part is joined to another: (L, TA:) pl. شُعُبٌ.

(IM, Msb, * TA.) In the phrase إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الشُّعُوبِ أَسْلَمَ, occurring in a trad., [and mentioned before, voce شَعْبٌ,] الشعوب may mean العَجَم; or it may be [used as] a pl. of الشُّعُوبِىُّ, like as اليَهُودُ and المَجُوسُ are [used as] pls. of اليَهُودِىُّ and المَجُوسِىُّ.

(S, A, TA.) A2: It is also the name of a certain very covetous man [who became proverbial for his covetousness, and hence it is used as an epithet]: (S, K:) so in the saying, لَا تَكُنْ

أَشْعَبَ فَتَتْعَبَ [Be not thou an Ash'ab, for in that case thou wilt become fatigued, or wearied, by thy endeavours]; (K;) a prov.: (TA:) and so in the prov., أَطْمَعُ مِنْ أَشْعَبَ [More covetous than Ash'ab].

(S. [Accord. to the TA, the meaning, app. taken without consideration from one of the foregoing explanations of سَفَرٌ, is, when Sirius rises at nightfall: but this is during the usual winter-rains.]) You say also, لَقِيتُهُ سَفَرًا, and فِى سَفَرٍ, meaning ↓ عِنْدَاسْفِرَارِ الشَّمْسِ لِلغُرُوبِ, thus related, with س [in the word اسفرار (not with ص), and app. meaning I met him when the sun was becoming white, previously to the setting].
