غِفَارَة، عند أهل المغرب: رداء أحمر (فوك).
وفي تونس (غفارة رداء رقيق يغطي كُل الجسم). وعند ميشيل (ص76) (غِفارة برنس قصير من الصوف رقيق أبيض يرتدي في الصيف) (دونانت ص201) وعند ابن القوطية (ص25 و): دخل عليه يوماً- وعليه ثوب عراقي وغفارة عراقي فقال له يا ابن الشمر تُظاهر العراقي على العراقي ما فعلتْ غُفَيــرتُك التي كنتَ تختلف إليَّ بها وأنا ولدٌ فقال قطعت منها جُلاً وبرقعا لبغلك الأشهب. وفي حيّان- بسّام (3: 140و) في الكلام عن دخول هشام الثالث قرطبة (مخطوطة أ): دخل- بحِلية مختصرة ساد لا شمل (سمل) غفارة ما على تحتها كسوة رثة. وفي (مخطوطة ب): ساد لا اشمال (اسمال) عفاوة إلى ما تحتها كسوة رثة. (المقري 1: 881، المقدمة 2: 194). وفي مخطوطة كوبنهاجن المجهولة الهوية (ص34): ولما كان النزول برباط تازة التفت المنصور إلى ساقته فرأى أكثر القرابة من الاخوة والعمومة قد اصطفَّوا واختصّوا بلباس الغفائر والبرانيس فانكر عليهم لكونه من زي الخليفة في حالتَيّ ركوبه وجلوسه في كل موطن.
وهذه الكلمة تثير مشكلتين: الأولى أنه ليس من اليسير معرفة إذا ما كانت تعني قلنسوة وطاقية أو أنها تعنى كساء. وأرى الآن أن الأفضل في العبارتين اللتين نقلتهما في الملابس (ص316) انها تعني رداء. والثانية هل هي غِفارة أو غَفَّارة (انظر غفَّارة) وهذه الأخيرة تعنى كساء أيضاً.
غِفَارَة: تصحيف خِفاوة بمعنى حماية، ففي أبو حَمُّو: فأنت وجيوشك في غفارتهم تعيشون وبدعائهم تثبتون.
غُفَيْــرَة: كساء قصير. انظر المادة السابقة- وضبط الكلمة هذا في المخطوطة.
غُفَّارَة، والجمع غَفافِير: كساء. (الملابس ص317، القلائد ص334 (= برنس) وانظر، غِفارَة، وفي محيط المحيط: الغَفَّارة وشاح يلبسه الأحبار في الهياكل. (ولا ادري لماذا قال إنها عبرانية). وعند برجرن: غَفَارة والجمع غَفَارات: غَفَّارة الأحبار في الهياكل، وفي معجم بوشر غفارة بدون تشديد ولا حركات وهو ثوب واسع يلبس كساءً في الكنيسة.
تَغْقِير عند النصارى: غُفْران، صفح، عفو عن الخطايا. (ألكالا).
مَغْفِرَة: نفس المعنى السابق (ألكالا، ويوم الغُفْران). (ألكالا).
مُغفّر (تصحيف مخفّر): حامٍ، واقٍ، ظهير، مدافع، مجير، خفير، صائن، معين، بركهارت سورية ص660.
إسْتِغْفار عام: إقرار بالذنب، اعتراف بالذنب، طلب المغفرة عن الإثم.
اسْتِغْفارِيّ: تكفري، مُكفّر عن الذنوب (بوشر).

مَفْعُوِلهِ and أَوْصَلَهُ إِلَيْهِ, which latter phrase is the more usual, mean “ he made the verb transitive ”]: (K:) or ↓ اغفلهُ signifies he neglected it (i. e. a thing) though remembering it. ('Eyn, Sb, S, O, Msb.) It is said in a trad., مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الصَّيْدَ غَفَلَ i. e. He who pursues the object of the chase has his mind busied and possessed by it so that he becomes unmindful [&c. of other things]. (TA.) 2 غفّلهُ, inf. n. تَــغْفِيــلٌ, He made him to become unmindful, forgetful, neglectful, heedless, or inadvertent. (Msb.) b2: See also 4. b3: التَّــغْفِيــلُ signifies [also] The sufficing one's companion [in respect of an affair] when he who is the object thereof is unmindful, unoccupied [in mind, or actually,] by anything. (ISk, K, TA.) [You say, غفّل صَاحِبَهُ meaning He sufficed his companion in respect of an affair when he (the latter) was unmindful, &c.]

A2: And غفّلهُ, (Mgh, O, K, but in my copy of the Mgh written without tesh-deed,) inf. n. as above, (O, K,) He concealed it, (Mgh, O, K,) namely, a thing. (Mgh, O.) 3 غافلهُ [app. He acted with him in the manner of him who is unmindful, forgetful, neglectful, heedless, or inadvertent]. (TA voce سَاهَاهُ, q. v., in art. سهو.) 4 اغفلهُ: see 1, in three places. b2: [Hence,] one says, مَا أَغْفَلَهُ عَنْكَ شَيْئًا [app. lit. signifying How unmindful of thee is he as to anything! and therefore virtually] meaning dismiss doubt [from thee respecting him as to anything]. (TA. [See further explanations of it voce شَىْءٌ.]) b3: and اغفلهُ عَنْهُ He made him to be unmindful, forgetful, neglectful, or heedless, of it, or inadvertent to it; (S, * O, TA;) namely, a thing. (S.) [Or]

اغفلهُ signifies He, or it, smote him, or lighted on him, he (the latter) being غَافِل [i. e. unmindful, &c.]: or he made him to be غَافِل: or he called him, or named him, غَافِل: and in like manner ↓ غفّلهُ, inf. n. تَــغْفِيــلٌ: (TA:) or تَــغْفِيــلٌ signifies the calling [one] unmindful, &c.: and the rendering [one] stupid, or foolish.

(TA.) b5: And اغفل الدَّابَّةَ He left the beast unbranded; did not brand it. (S, O.) 5 تغفّل as intrans.: see 6, in two places.

A2: تغفّلهُ He watched for his unmindfulness, forgetfulness, negligence, heedlessness, or inadvertence; (S, Mgh, O, Msb;) as also عَنْهُ ↓ تغافل, (S, O,) and ↓ استغفلهُ: (TA:) تغافل [as trans.] in this sense [without a prep.] is a mistake. (Mgh.) 6 تغافل He feigned himself unmindful, forgetful, neglectful, heedless, or inadvertent; not being so really. (Msb.) [And] He was intentionally, or purposely, unmindful, forgetful, &c.; as also ↓ تغفّل: (K:) or the former has this meaning: but ↓ تغفّل signifies he was deceived, or circumvented, in a state of unmindfulness, forgetfulness, &c. (TA.) تغافل عَنْهُ: see 5. It means [also] He was unmindful, &c., of him, or it: or he feigned himself unmindful, &c., of him, or it. (MA.) 10 استغفلهُ: see 5.

(TA.) b2: Also A road, or way, &c., in which is no sign, or mark, whereby it may be known. (K.) b3: And A gaming-arrow (قِدْحٌ) upon which is no mark [or notch to distinguish it]; (K;) such as has no portion assigned to it, and no fine: (O, K:) [or,] accord. to Lh, one says قِدَاحٌ غُفْلٌ, using the sing. form [of the epithet] meaning [gaming arrows] in which are no notches, and to which is assigned no portion and no fine: they used to be added to give additional weight to the collection of arrows from fear of occasioning suspicion [of foul play], i. e. to increase the number: and they were four; the first [called] المُصَدَّرُ; the next, المُضَعَّفُ; the next, المَنِيحُ; and the next, السَّفِيحُ. (TA.) b4: and A beast (دَابَّةٌ) having no brand upon it: (S, O, K:) and a she-camel that is not branded, in order that the poor-rate may not be [considered as] incumbent for her: and ↓ غُفُلٌ is a dial. var. thereof, or is used by poetic license: the pl. is أَغْفَالٌ.

One whose beneficence is not hoped for, nor his evilness feared; (K, TA;) he being like the shackled that is neglected: pl. as above. (TA.)

[فِى غَفْلَةٍ In a state of unmindfulness &c., and عَنْ غَفْلَةٍ in consequence of unmindfulness &c., may often be rendered at unawares.]

(TA.) It is said in a trad., عَلَيْكَ بِالْمَغْفَلَةِ [Keep thou to the washing of the tuft of hair beneath the lower lip]: meaning that one should use heedfulness in washing it, in the performance of the ablution termed وُضُوء. (TA.) مُغَفَّلٌ [lit. Made unmindful, &c.; see its verb: and hence, a simpleton; or] devoid of intelligence, sagacity, skill, or natural understanding. (IDrd, Mgh, O, Msb, K.)
