(Th, S, O. Msb, K.) 2 فَلَّجَ see 1, former half: b2: and see also فَلَجٌ, in two places.3 فالجهُ He contended with him, trying which of them should succeed, or overcome. (TA.) Hence one says, (TA,) أُفَالِجُكَ أُمُورًا مِنَ الحَقِّ I will contend with thee, trying which of us shall succeed, to accomplish affairs of right. (A, TA.) 4 افلج as intrans.: see 1, former half, in three places.

A2: افلجــهُ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ God made him to succeed against him; to overcome him, conquer him, or gain the victory over him: (S, O, K: *) and made him to excel him. (TA.) b2: And خَاصَيْتُ فَأَــفْلَجَــنَى I contended in an altercation, disputed, or litigated, and he decided in my favour, and judged me to have prevailed against, or overcome, my adversary.

(TA.) A2: See also 1, last sentence.10 استــفلج فُلَانٌ بِأَمْرِهِ Such a one mastered, or became master of, his affair: and so استفلح, with ح. (A, TA.) [See the latter verb.]

فَلْجٌ an inf. n. of فَلَجَ [q. v.]. (S, O, K, &c.) b2: And [probably as such] i. q. قَمْرٌ [app. as meaning An overcoming in a game of hazard]; as also ↓ فُلْجٌ. (L.) A2: See also فَالِجٌ, in two places.

A3: Also, and ↓ فِلْجٌ, (S, O, K,) and ↓ فُلُجٌّ, [q. v.,] (Seer, L,) [or perhaps this is a mistranscription for فَلْجٌ or فِلْجٌ,] The half of a thing: (S, O, K:) pl. of the first and second فُلُوجٌ.

(Mgh.) فَلَجٌ: see فُلْجٌ, in two places.

A2: It is also an inf. n. of فَلِجَ [q. v.]: (Lh, TA:) and signifies Distance, or width, between the teeth; (K;) as also ↓ تَفْلِيجٌ: (TA:) or, between the medial and lateral incisors, (T, S, O,) when natural; and تَفْلِيجٌ, distance, or width, between those teeth when it is the effect of art. (T.) فَلَجٌ in all the teeth is disapproved, and not at all beautiful; but it is esteemed goodly when only between the two middle teeth. (TA.) b2: Also Distance, or width, between the feet, (Lth, O, K, TA,) in the posterior direction: (O, TA:) or, between the shanks; like فَحَجٌ: (ISd, TA:) or crookedness, or curvature, [or a bowing outwards,] of the arms. (TA. [See أَــفْلَجُ.]) And The turning over of the foot upon the outer side, and displacement of the heel; in a neuter sense. (L.) A3: Also, (S, K,) and, accord. to the S, فَلْجٌ, but this is a mistake, (IB, K,) A river: (A'Obeyd, TA:) or a small river: (S, O, K:) a rivulet, or streamlet; syn. جَدْوَلٌ: (A:) or a running spring of water: or running water: (R, TA:) or a large well: (Ibn-Kunáseh, TA:) pl. أَفْلَاجٌ (S, O) and فَلَجَــاتٌ (R, TA) [or فُلْجَــانٌ, for] فُلْجَــانٌ signifies rivulets, streamlets, or small channels, for the irrigation of seed-produce: and ↓ فُلُجٌ, with two dammehs, signifies a rivulet, streamlet, or small channel, for irrigation, running to every part of a garden.

فَلَجَــاتٌ Fields, or lands, sown, or for sowing. (TA. [See also فَلَحَةٌ, in art. فلح.]) b2: See also فَلَجٌ, last sentence but two.

فُلُجٌّ, [thus in the L,] accord. to Sb, A sort of men: one says, النَّاسُ فُلُجَّــانِ The people, or men, are two sorts; [for ex.,] consisting of entering and going out: [but I think it most probable that فُلُجٌّ and فُلُجَّــانِ are mistranscriptions for فِلْجٌ and فِلْجَــانِ, for] Seer says that فلج signifying “ a half ” and “ a sort ” is derived from فِلْجٌ syn. with قَفِيزٌ: thus he makes فِلْجٌ an Arabic word. (L.) See also فَلْجٌ.

فِلْجَــانٌ, [said to be] from فِلْجٌ signifying “ a certain measure of capacity,” [but app. from the Pers\. فِنْجَان,] A [small porcelain or earthenware] cup out of which coffee &c. is drunk; commonly pronounced by the vulgar فِنْجَان and فِنْجَال [from the Pers\. پِنْگَان and پِنْگَال, and also called ↓ فِلْجَــانَةٌ, vulgarly فِنْجَانَة; and ↓ فِيَالَجَة: (see سَوْمَلَةٌ:) pl. فَلَاجِينُ and فَنَاجِينُ and فَنَاجِيلُ].

خِبَآء: (As, S, O, K:) As says, I know not in what part it is: (TA:) ↓ فَلِيجٌ appears to be used for it by poetic license; or the word may be one of those pronounced with and without ة; or without ة it may be a pl. [or coll. gen. n.] of which the sing. [or n. un.] is with ة: (M, TA:) [or] فَلِيجٌ signifies a single oblong piece of a بِجَاد [q. v.]; and its pl. is فُلُجٌ: (L and TA in art. بجد:) and [in like manner] ↓ فَلْجَــةٌ signifies a piece of a بِجَاد. (TA in the present art.) b2: See also فَلِيحَةٌ, with ح.

(S, M, K; all in art. صر.) b3: And الفَالِجُ signifies [Palsy, or paralysis, whether partial or general; hemiplegia or paraplegia:] a disease arising from a flaccidity in one of the lateral halves of the body; (A;) or a flaccidity in one of the lateral halves of the body, (K, TA,) arising suddenly, (TA,) occasioned by an efflux of a phlegmatic humour, and causing the passages of the spirit to become obstructed; (K, TA;) this being its first effect; it deprives the patient of his senses and his motion; and is sometimes in one member: (TA:) or a flatus (رِيحٌ S, O, L, TA) which attacks a man, and deprives him [of the use] of one lateral half of the body; (thus in the L, and the like is said in the 'Eyn; TA;) whence it is thus called: (IDrd, S, O:) or a disease that arises in one of the lateral halves of the body, occasioning the loss of the senses and of motion, and sometimes in both lateral halves, and sudden in its attack; on the seventh [day] it is dangerous; but when it has passed the seventh, its acuteness ceases; and when it has passed the fourteenth, it becomes a chronic disease: (Msb:) it is called in a trad. of Aboo-Hureyreh دَآءُ الأَنْبِيَآءِ [the disease of the prophets]: and is said by Et-Tedmuree, in the Expos. of the Fs, to be a disease that attacks a man when the venters (بُطُون) of the brain become filled with certain moistures, or humours, occasioning the loss of sensation and of the motions of the members, and rendering the patient like a dead person, understanding nothing. (TA.) A3: أَنَا مِنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ فَالِجُ بْنُ خَلَاوَةَ, or كَفَالِجِ بْنِ خَلَاوَةَ, is a saying expl. in art. خلو.

فَيْلَجٌ [The cocoon of a silk-worm;] the thing from which قَزّ is obtained: an arabicized word; [from the Pers\. پِيلَهْ pélah; but said to be] originally فَيْلَق, and thus some pronounce it. (Msb,) فِيَالَجَةٌ: see فِلْجَــانٌ. [فَيَالِجَة occurs in art. قز.

in the TA, as its pl.; being there expl. as meaning small cups (فَنَاجِين) in which wine (شَرَاب) is drunk: but I think that this may be taken from a mistranscription for فِيَالَجَة.]

فَلَجٌ:
بفتح أوله وثانيه، وآخره جيم، والــفلج: الماء الجاري من العين، قال العجّاج:
تذكر أعينا رواء فلجــا
أي جارية، يقال: عين فلج وماء فلج، قال أبو عبيدة: الــفلج النهر، والــفلج: تباعد ما بين الأسنان، والــفلج: تباعد ما بين القدمين أو اليدين. وفلج:
مدينة بأرض اليمامة لبني جعدة وقشير وكعب بن ربيعة بن عامر بن صعصعة كما أن حجر مدينة بني ربيعة بن نزار بن معدّ بن عدنان. وفلج: مدينة قيس بن عيلان بن مضر بن نزار بن معدّ بن عدنان وبها منبر ووال، قال: ويقال لها فلج الأفلاج، قال السكوني: قال أبو عبيد: ووراء المجازة فلج الأفلاج وهو ما بين العارض ومطلع الشمس تصبّ فيه أودية العارض وتنتهي إليه سيولها، وليس باليمامة ملك لقوم خلصوا به مثلها، وهي أربعة فراسخ طولا وعرضا مستديرة، قال أبو زياد يزيد بن عبد الله الحرّ في نوادره: إنما سمّي فلج الأفلاج لأنها أفلاج كثيرة وأعظمها هذا الــفلج لأنه أكثرها نخلا ومزارع وسيوحا جارية، وسوى ذلك من الأفلاج الخطائم:
مكان كثير الزرع والأطواء ليس فيه نخل، والزّرنوق: موضع آخر فيه الزّروع وأطواء كثيرة وهو فلج من الأفلاج، وحرم فلج، وأكمة فلج، والشطبتان فلج من الأفلاج، فهذا إنما سمي فلج الأفلاج لأنه أعظمها وأكثرها نخلا، والأفلاج لبني جعدة وفيها لبني قشير، والحريش: موضع، وكلّ ما يجري سيحا من عين فهو فلج، وكل جدول شقّ من عين على وجه الأرض فهو فلج، وأما البحور والسيول فلا تسمّى أفلاجا، هذا آخر كلام أبي زياد الكلابي حرفا حرفا، وقال أبو الدّنيا: فلج الأفلاج نخل لبني جعدة كثير وسيوح تجري مثل الأودية تنقب فيها قنيّ فتساح، وقال القحيف بن حميّر العقيلي، وقال أبو زياد: هي لرجل من بني هزّان:
سلوا فلج الأفلاج عنّا وعنكم ... وأكمة إذ سالت سرارتها دما
عشيّة لو شئنا سبينا نساءكم، ... ولكن صفحنا عزّة وتكرّما
عشيّة جاءت من عقيل عصابة ... تقدّم من أبطالها من تقدّما
وقال القحيف أيضا:
بدانا فقلنا أثاب البحر واكتست [1] ... أسافله حتى ارجحنّ وأوّدا
أم التين في قريانه تم نبته ... خضيدا ولولا لينه ما تخضّدا
أم النخل من وادي القرى انحرفت له ... يمانية هنّ القنا فتأوّدا
سقى فلج الأفلاج من كلّ همة ... ذهاب تروّيه دماثا وقوّدا
ويروى: سقى الــفلج العاديّ.
به نجد الصيد الغريب ومنظرا ... أنيقا ورخصات الأنامل خرّدا
وقال الجعديّ:
نحن بنو جعدة أرباب الــفلج، ... نحن منعنا سيله حتى اعتلج [1]- هذا الشطر مختل الوزن.
ويوم فلج: لبني عامر على بني حنيفة، ويقال فلج الأفلاج والــفلج العاديّ أيضا، قال القحيف:
تركنا على النّشّاس بكر بن وائل ... وقد نهلت منها السيوف وعلّت
وبالــفلج العاديّ قتلى إذا التقت ... عليها ضباع الغيل باتت وظلّت
وكان فلج هذا من مساكن عاد القديمة.
