A2: See also 4, in three places.2 فَعَّمَ see what next follows.4 افعم; [like أَفْأَمَ;] (S, K;) and so افغم; (K in art. فغم;) as also ↓ فعّم; (thus in some of the copies of the K;) or ↓ فَعَمَ, (thus accord. to other copies of the K and accord. to the TA,) aor. ـَ inf. n. فَعْمٌ; (TA;) He filled a vessel; (S, K, TA;) and exceeded the usual degree, or strove, or laboured, or did not fall short of what was requisite, in filling it. (TA.) b2: And أَفْعَمْتُ البَيْتَ بِرِيحِ العُودِ [I filled the house, or chamber, or tent, with the odour of aloes-wood]. (S.) It is said in a trad., لَوْ أَنْ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الحُورِ العِينَ أَشْرَفَتْ لَأَفْعَمَتْ مَا َبيْنَ السَّمَآءِ وَالأَرْضِ رِيحَ المِسْكِ i. e. [If a woman (or Paradise) of those having eyes like the eyes of gazelles rose into view,] she would fill [the space between the heaven and the earth with the odour of musk]: thus related: and also لَأَفْغَمَتْ, and لَفَغَمَتْ: but Az says that the right relation is لافعمت, with ع. (TA in this art. and in art. فغم.) And one says, افعم المِسْكُ البَيْتَ The musk filled with its odour, (S,) or perfumed, (K,) [the house, or chamber, or tent.] b3: and افعم الرَّجُلَ He filled the man with anger; (S, TA;) mentioned by Az on the authority of Aboo-Turáb: (TA:) or he angered him: or he filled his nose with odour, (K, TA,) i. e. with sweet odour: (TA:) as also ↓ فَعِمَهُ and ↓ فَعَمَهُ, aor. of both فَعَمَ, (K, TA,) inf. n. فَعْمٌ; but better known with the pointed غ. (TA.) b4: And افعمهُ and افغمهُ He filled him with joy, or happiness. (Aboo-Turáb, TA.) 12 اِفْعَوْعَمَ It became full, and overflowed. (K.) b2: And افعوعم طِيبًا It (a house, or chamber, or tent,) became filled with perfume. (TA.) فَعْمٌ Full; applied in this sense to a سَاعِد [or fore arm]; (S, K;) and to a vessel; as also ↓ فَعْمَلٌ, in which the ل is augmentative: (K:) and full of flesh; applied to the place of the anklet. (TA.) It is said of the Prophet, in a trad., كَانَ فَعْمَ الأَوْصَال i. e. He was full in respect of the limbs. (TA.) And one says اِمْرَأَةٌ فَعْمَةٌ A woman full-formed, and thick in her shank.

A2: And A species of tree: or the rose. (K.) فَعْمَلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

أَفْعَمُ Full [like فَعْمٌ]: or overflowing by reason of fulness. (TA.) مُفْعَمٌ Filled; applied in this sense to a skin for water or milk; as also مُفْأَمٌ: but as to ↓ مَفْعُومٌ, IAar asserts that he had not heard it except in a verse of Kutheiyir: Az, however, mentions it as signifying full [like فَعْمٌ], applied to a river, or rivulet: and Aboo-Sahl cites an ex. of it from the verses of the Fs as signifying full of flesh. (TA.) b2: The phrase سَيْلٌ مُفْعَمٌ may be of the same category as هَمٌّ نَاصِبٌ [for هَمٌّ ذُو نَصَبٍ], the meaning being A torrent having the quality of filling; though the possessive epithet in most instances has the form of the act. part. n., such as طَالِقٌ [for ذَاتَ طَلَاقٍ] and مُرْضِعٌ [for ذَاتُ رَضِيعٍ]: or it may be that مَفْعَمٌ in this case is expressive of muchness, or abundance, like the latter word in the phrase شِعْرٌ شَاعِرٌ and in مَوْتٌ مَائِتٌ. (Ham p. 106.) مَفْعُومٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

فعو or فعى 1 فَعَا شَيْئًا i. q. فتته [so in my original, app., if not a mistranscription, فَتَّتَهُ i. e. He crumbled a thing much]; said of a man.

(TA.) فَاعٍ Angry and foaming [with anger]. (IAar, M, K.) b2: And [the fem.] فَاعِيَةٌ A woman (TA) wont to calumniate; syn. نَمَّامَةٌ. (K, TA: in the CK الثُّمامَةُ is put for النَّمَّامَةُ.) فَاعِيَةٌ [as a subst.] The flower of the حِنَّآء [i. e. Lawsonia inermis, or Egyptian privet]: (K:) [said to be] a dial. var. of فَاغِيَةٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) أَفْعًى, (S, Msb, K) of the fem. gender, but with tenween, (S, Msb,) because it is a subst., not an epithet; (Msb;) [said in the S and Msb to be like أَرْوًى; but this is a mistake, for اروى is without tenween;] or it is an epithet and a subst.; (K, TA;) but mostly a subst.; (TA;) [if used as an epithet, it is without tenween, written أَفْعَى, being also of the measure of a verb;] A certain serpent, (S, Msb, K,) of a malignant kind; [i. e. the viper;] also called ↓ أُفْعُوٌّ, (K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, اُفْعُوان, which see in what follows,]) occurring in a trad., in which it is said that there is no harm in the killing of the أُفْعُوّ and the حُدُوّ by the مُحْرِم, the [final] alif being changed into و in both of these words in the dial. of El-Hijáz: (TA:) it is spotted, black and white; slender in the neck; broad in the head; it is said that it will not quit its place; (TA;) always coiling itself round; and neither antidote nor charm is of any avail against it: (Msb, TA:) sometimes it has two horns [i. e. it sometimes signifies the cerastes, or horned viper]: (TA:) ↓ أُفْفُوَانٌ signifies the male: (S, Msb, TA:) [see also خِشَاشٌ:] the pl. is أَفَاعٍ. (S, Msb, K. * [In the K, the pl. is written أَفَاعِى, which, when indeterminate, is wrong.]) b2: [Hence,] by way of comparison [to vipers], (TA,) الأَفَاعِى signifies (tropical:) Certain veins (عُرُوق) that branch off from the حَالِبَانِ [q. v.]. (K.) أَفْعآءٌ [a pl. of which the sing. is not mentioned] Sweet, or pleasant, odours. (IAar, M, K.) أُفْعُوٌّ, and أُفْعُوانٌ: see أَفْعًى.

Q. 1 حَثْحَثَ: see 1, in two places. b2: Also He moved about [a thing]; or put [it] in motion, or into a state of commotion; (K;) [and so ↓ حَثَّ, as is implied in the M, voce فَدَّ, where it is used as meaning it (a bird) moved, or flapped, its wings.] You say, حَثْحَثَ المِيلَ فِى العَيْنِ He moved about the collyrium-style in the eye. (A, TA.) and [hence,] حَثْحَثُوا ذٰلِكَ الأَمْرَ ثُمَّ تَرَكُوهُ (assumed tropical:) They stirred up (حَرَّكُوا) that affair, and then left it, or abandoned it.

(TA.) Or حثاث signifies Light, or little, sleep. (IDrst, TA.) It is related on the authority of an Arab of the desert that it signifies A little collyrium: and on the authority of El-Fihree, that it is syn. with بَرُودٌ, i. e. كُحْلٌ [collyrium].

1 خَصَّهُ بِالشَّىْءِ, (S, K,) or بِكَذَا, (A, Msb,) aor. ـُ (Msb, TA,) inf. n. خَصٌّ (K) and خُصُوصٌ (S, Msb, K) and خَصُوصٌ (TA) and خَصُوصِيَّةٌ and خُصُوصِيَّةٌ, (S, Mgh, * Msb, K,) of which last two the former is the more chaste, (S, TA,) and is the form mentioned in the Fs and its Exposi tions, and the ى in it is said to be the relative ى, and the ى which is characteristic of an inf. n., whereas in the latter it is said to be a characteristic of intensiveness, but MF thinks that this requires consideration, because the ى is also said to be, and by some more commonly, without teshdeed, as in كَرَاهِيَةٌ and عَلَانِيَةٌ, (TA,) and خِصِّيصَى, (S, K,) like مِكِّيثَى, which is said to be the only other instance of this measure, (TA,) [but some others might be added, as دِلِّيلَى and فِخِّيرَى and قِتِّيتَى,] and خِصِّيصَآءُ, (IAar, Kr, K,) [like مِكِّيثَآءُ,] the former of which last two [each of which has an intensive signification] is the chaste, and com monly known, form, (TA,) and خُصِّيَّةٌ, or خِصِّيَّةٌ, or خَصِيَّةٌ, (accord. to different copies of the K,) written by Sgh with damm, (TA,) and تَخِصَّةٌ, (Ibn-' Abbád, K,) or, as some say, خَصُوصِيَّةٌ and خِصِّيَّةٌ [or خُصِّيَّةٌ or خَصِّيَّةٌ] are each a quasi-inf. n., as also خَاصَّةٌ, (TA,) He distinguished him particularly, peculiarly, or specially, i. e., above, or from, or exclusively of, others, by the thing, or by such a thing; he particularized him, or particularly or peculiarly or specially characterized him, thereby; syn. فَضَّلَهُ (A, K, TA) دُونَ غَيْرِهِ, and مَيَّزَهُ; (TA;) he appropriated, or assigned, [the thing or] such a thing, or made it to belong, to him alone, or in particular, or peculiarly, or specially, exclusively of others; (Msb;) and بِهِ ↓ اختصّهُ signifies the same; (S, A, Msb, K;) as also ↓ اخصّهُ, (A, [but for this I know not any other authority,]) and ↓ خصّصهُ; (A;) or this last has an intensive signification. (Msb.) You say, خَصَّهُ بِالُودِّ He distinguished him &c. by love, or affection; or favoured him in preference to another, or others, thereby. (K, TA.)

(TA.) And [hence]

خَصَّهُ بِكَذَا also signifies He gave him such a thing in large quantity, or abundantly. (TA.) [You say also, خَصَّهُ بِالذِّكْرِ He distinguished, &c., or singled out, him, or it, by mention: or he particularized, peculiarized, or specified, him, or it, thereby; he particularly, peculiarly, or specially, mentioned him, or it. And خَصَّهُ, alone, He pointed particularly, or peculiarly, to him, or it, in what he said; or he meant particularly, or peculiarly, him, or it. And خَصَّ مِنْهُ كَذَا He distinguished, particularized, peculiarized, or specified, thereof such a thing: and he distinguished therefrom such a thing; he particularly, peculiarly, or specially, excepted therefrom such a thing.] Youalso say, خَصَّهُ لِنَفْسِهِ (TA) and لِنَفْسِهِ ↓ اختصّهُ (T, A, TA) [He appropriated, or took, or chose, him, or it, particularly, or specially, to, or for, himself; as also خَصَّ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ and بِهِ نَفْسَهُ ↓ اختصّ]. And فُلَانًا ↓ هُوَ يَسْتَخِصُّ and يَسْتَخْلِصُهُ (A, TA) [He appropriates such a one purely to himself, exclusively of any partner; (see the latter verb;)] he chooses such a one for himself; he appropriates him to himself as his particular, or special, intimate; (TA in art. خلص;) both signify the same. (S and K in art. خلص.) [And ↓ اختصّهُ He treated him, or behaved towards him, with partiality; was partial towards him: a signification implied by the first explanation in this art.: and in this sense it is often used.]

You say, اختصّ فُلَانٌ بِالأَمْرِ, and لَهُ ↓ تخصّص, [or بِهِ, accord. to general usage,] Such a one was, or became, alone, with none to share or participate with him, in the affair; syn. اِنْفَرَدَ.

(TA.) You say also, ↓ سَدَدْتُ خُصَاصَةَ فُلَانٍ, with damm, meaning, (tropical:) I repaired the broken fortune of such a one. (A, TA.) b2: Also the first, (tropical:) Thirst; as in camels when they return from water without having satisfied themselves with drink: and hunger; as in a man when he has not satisfied himself with food. (TA.) خُصَاصَةٌ: see خَصَاصَةٌ, last sentence but one.

خَصَاصَآءُ: see خَصَاصَةٌ, from the beginning to the last sentence but two.

خَصوُصِيَّةٌ and خُصُوصِيَّةٌ: see خُصُوصٌ, in three places.

خِصَّانٌ and خُصَّانٌ: see the next paragraph, in three places.

خَاصٌّ Particular; peculiar; special; distinct, or distinguished, from others; contr. of عَامٌّ. (Msb, TA.) b2: [And hence, Choice; select. b3: And Pare; unmixed; unadulterated.] b4: [Used as a subst.,] it is syn. with ↓ خَاصَّةٌ; (Ks, Msb, K;) in which the ة is a corroborative; (Msb;) and which signifies Distinguished people; persons of distinction; the distinguished sort; contr. of عَامَّةٌ: (S, Msb, K:) or the former is contr. of عَامٌّ, and ↓ the latter is contr. of عَامَّةٌ: (TA:) [the pl. of both is خَوَاصٌّ and ↓ خِصَّانٌ and ↓ خُصَّانٌ: or, accord. to rule, the first of these is pl. only of خَاصَّةٌ; and judging from other instances, we should regard the second and third as more probably pls. of خَاصٌّ: but however the case may be,] خِصَّانٌ is syn. with خَوَاصُّ, (S, K,) and so is خُصَّانٌ. (K.) [You say, الخَاصُّ وَالعَامُّ, and وَالعَمَّةُ ↓ الخَاصَّةُ, The distinguished and the common people; the persons of distinction and the vulgar.] You also say, ↓ إِنَّمَا يَفْعَلُ هٰذَا خِصَّانٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ meaning خَوَاصُّ مِنْهُمْ [Only distinguished persons of mankind do this]. (S.) b5: [It seems to be also, in some instances, syn. with

↓ خَاصَّةٌ as signifying A particular, peculiar, or special, friend, intimate, familiar, companion, associate, attendant, dependent, or servant:] the latter is explained in the T [and JK] as meaning a person whom thou hast appropriated, particularly distinguished, taken, or chosen, (اِخْتَصَصْتَهُ,) [as a friend, &c.,] to, or for, thyself: (TA:) [and it is used as a sing. and as a pl.: for] you say, هٰذَا خَاصَّتِى [This is my particular, or special, or choice, or choicest, friend, &c.]: and هُمْ خَاصَّتِى [They are my particular, or peculiar, or special, or choice, or choicest, friends, &c.]. (A.) You say also, فُلَانٌ خَاصٌّ لِفُلَانٍ, (Kull p. 174,) or بِفُلَانٍ, (so in the L,) [app. meaning لِفُلَانٍ, unless it be mistranscribed, and the latter be the correct reading, which I think much the more probable;] i. e., Such a one belongs exclusively [as a particular, or peculiar, or special, friend, &c.,] to such a one; (Kull;) and ↓ مُخَصٌّ signifies the same. (L.) b6: See the dim. of خَاصَّةٌ, (namely خُوَيْصَّةٌ,) below.

خَاصَّةٌ: see خَاصٌّ, in four places. b2: It also signifies A property of a thing, not found, or not existing, either wholly or partly, in another thing: and ↓ خَاصِّيَّةٌ [thus correctly written, and thus I have always found it written except by Golius and those who have probably imitated him, who write it without the sheddeh to the ى,] is used as denoting [a property, or particular or peculiar virtue, which is] an unknown cause of a known effect; as that by which a medicine operates: the former differs from the latter in being conventionally applied to an effect, [or effective property,] whether the cause of its existence be known or not: [the pl. of the former is خَوَاصُّ, agreeably with analogy and usage, like as عَوَامُّ is pl. of عَامَّةٌ:] the pl. of the latter is خَاصِّيَّاتٌ [and خَصَائِصُ]; and خَوَاصُّ is a quasi-pl. n., not a pl., of the same. (Kull p. 174. [All the abovementioned words here cited from that work are there without syll. signs, as being well known. Both خاصّة and ↓ خاصّيّة, as here explained, are perhaps post-classical; but of this I am not certain: and both are sometimes used as meaning The peculiar nature of a thing; also termed its essence.]) b3: خَاصَّةً and بِخَاصَّةٍ: see خُصُوصٌ.

خَاصِّيَّةٌ: see خَاصَّةٌ, in two places.

خُوَيْصَّةٌ dim. of خَاصَّةٌ; (A, K;) [like دُوَيْبَّةٌ, q. v., dim. of دَابَّةٌ;] originally خُوَيْصِصَةٌ; (TA;) the ى being quiescent because the ى of the dim. cannot be movent; (A, K;) [properly signifying A little, or young, particular, or peculiar, or special, friend, companion, associate, attendant, or servant; and used in other senses, like other diminutives; implying littleness of estimation; and also affection, and awe.] It is said in a trad., (TA,) عَلَيْكَ بِخُوَيْصَّةِ نَفْسِكَ [Keep thou to the little, or dear, particular friend of thine own self: so it seems to mean accord. to Z, being mentioned by him among the proper expressions belonging to this art.: but accord. to the TK, it appears to be tropical; for the meaning is there said to be, (assumed tropical:) thine own particular state, or condition]. (A, TA.) In another trad., خويصّة is used as signifying A little, young, particular, or peculiar, or special, servant. (TA.) And in another trad. it is said, بَادِرُوا بِالأَعْمَالِ سِتًّا الدَّجَّالِ وَكَذَا وَكَذَا وَخُوَيْصَّةَ أَحَدِكُمْ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) Strive ye to be before six things with [good] works; Antichrist, and such and such things, and the event of death which is specially, or peculiarly, appointed to any one of you: [or, I would rather say, the awful special awaiter of any one of you; though it is asserted that] the diminutive form is here used to denote low estimation of that which it signifies in comparison with what follows it, namely, the resurrection, &c. (TA.) مُخَصٌّ: see خَاصٌّ, last sentence but one.

شَرُرْتَ, (S accord. to some copies, L, Msb, K, MF,) aor. ـُ (L, Msb, K, * MF;) and sec. Pers\.

شَرَرْتَ, (S accord. to some copies, M, K, MF,) aor. ـِ (M, K, MF;) of which three vars. the first is the best known; and the last is strange, and disallowed by most authorities; (MF;) inf. n. [of the first or third] شَرٌّ (S, K) and [of the first]

شَرَرٌ (S) and [of the second or third] شَرَارَةٌ, (S, K,) and شِرَّةٌ also is an inf. n. [syn. with شَرٌّ]; (S;) He (a man) was, or became, evil, a wrongdoer, unjust, bad, corrupt, wicked, mischievous, vitious, or depraved. (S, * L, Msb, K, * &c.) The manner in which the K mentions شَرَّ with the two aor. .

يَشُرُّ and يَشِرُّ [only, omitting the most common aor., i. e. يَشَرُّ,] obviously demands consideration. (MF.) One says, شَرِرْتَ يَا رَجُلُ [Thou hast been evil, or a wrongdoer, &c., O man], (S, K,) and so شَرُرْتَ and شَرَرْتَ. (S accord. to different copies, and K.) b2: شَرَّ, aor. ـَ also signifies He increased in evil, wrongdoing, &c. (L.) It is said in a prov., كُلَّمَا تَكْبَرُ تَشَرُّ [In proportion as thou growest old, thou increasest in evil, &c.]. (Az, L.) b3: مَا شَرَّهُ: see 4, last sentence.

(O, K, * TA. [See also 4.]) One says, مَا قُلْتُ ذَاكَ لِشُرِّكَ وَإِنَّمَا قُلْتُةُ لِغَيْرِ شُرِّكَ I said not that to find fault with thee, but I only said it for a different purpose than that of finding fault with thee: (S, TA:) or this has a different meaning, which see below, voce شُرٌّ. (TA.) One says also, قَدْ قَبِلْتُ عَطِيَّتَكَ ثُمَّ رَدَدْتُهَا عَلَيْكَ مِنْ غَيْرِ شُرِّكَ وَلَا ضُرِّكَ, meaning [I have accepted thy gift; then I have given it back to thee] without rejecting it to thee or blaming thee [and without injuring thee].

(TA.) And [hence,] شَرَّهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـُ (S,) inf. n. شَرٌّ; (S, K;) and ↓ اشرّهُ, (K,) inf. n. إِشْرَارٌ; (TA;) and ↓ شرّرهُ, (K,) inf. n. as above; (TA;) and شَرَّاهُ [or شَرَاهُ without tesh-deed?]; (K;) He put it (i. e. [the preparation of curd called] أَقْط, and flesh-meat, S, K, and the like, and salt, S, and a garment, or piece of cloth, and the like, K) upon a خَصَفَة, (S, K,) i. e. a mat, (TA,) or some other thing, (K,) to dry. (S, K.) And شرّهُ He sprinkled it; namely, salt. (R, MF.) 2 شرّرهُ inf. n. تَشْرِيرٌ, He rendered him notorious, or infamous, among men. (Yz, K.)

[See also 1.]) b2: أَشَرُّوهُ They banished him, or drove him away, and caused him to be alone. (TA.) A2: See also 1, latter part, in two places. b2: [Hence, app.,] اشرّهُ signifies also (tropical:) He manifested it, revealed it, published it, or made it known. (S, A, K.) Thus in a verse of Imra-el-Keys, where he says, لَوْ يُشِرُّونَ مَقْتَلِى (assumed tropical:) [that they might publish, or make known, my slaughter]; as related by As; but it is better with س. (S.) A3: مَا أَشَرَّهُ, and ↓ مَا شَرَّهُ, [the latter of which is extr. with respect to form, but more commonly used than the former, meaning How evil, wrongdoing, unjust, bad, corrupt, wicked, mischievous, vitious, or depraved, is he!] phrases similar to مَا أَخْيَرَهُ and مَا خَيْرَهُ [which have the contr. meaning]. (TA in art. خير.) 8 اشترّ, said of a camel, [and of any clovenhoofed animal,] i. q. اجترّ, i. e. He ruminated, or chewed the cud: ج and ش being from one place of utterance. (IAth, TA.) 10 استشرّ He became possessor of a great herd, such as is termed إِشْرَارَة, of camels. (K.) R. Q. 1 شَرْشَرَهُ, (A 'Obeyd, K,) inf. n. شَرْشَرَةٌ, (S,) He split it, or clave it: (A 'Obeyd, S:) and cut it much, or in many pieces. (A 'Obeyd, S, K.) b2: He bit it, and then shook it; namely, a thing. (O, K, TA. [In the CK, نَقَضَهُ is erroneously put for نَفَضَهُ.]) b3: شَرْشَرَتْهُ الحَيَّةُ The serpent bit him. (L, K. *) b4: شرشرت المَاشِيَةُ النَّبَاتَ The cattle ate the herbage. (K.) b5: شرشر السِّكِّينَ He sharpened, (K,) or rubbed, (O,) the knife upon a stone, (O, K, TA,) so that its edge became rough.

(Msb, K.) It is said in a trad., in a form of prayer, (TA,) used by the Prophet, (Msb,) وَالخَيْرُ كُلُّهُ بِيَدَيْكَ وَالشَّرُّ لَيْسَ إِلَيْكَ, (Msb, * TA,) meaning [And all good is in thy hands, and evil i. e.] wrongdoing, or injustice, or corruptness, is not imputable to Thee: (Msb, TA:) or evil is not a means of advancement in thy favour, or of obtaining thine approval: or evil speech does not ascend to Thee. (Nh, L.) b2: شَرٌّ also signifies (assumed tropical:) Poverty. (K.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) Fever. (K.) b4: It is also an epithet, applied to a man, (Yoo, S,) and so is ↓ شَرِيرٌ, (Akh, S, A, Msb, K,) meaning Evil, wrongdoing, unjust, bad, corrupt, wicked, mischievous, vitious, or depraved: (Yoo, * Akh, * S, * A, * Msb, K: *) [fem. of the former شَرَّةٌ, like as خَيْرَةٌ is fem. of its contr. خَيْرٌ; and شُرَّى, fem. of أَشَرُّ, is used in the same sense, as will be shown in what follows:] the pl. of شَرٌّ, (Yoo, S,) or of ↓ شَرِيرٌ, (Akh, S, Msb, K,) is أَشْرَارٌ, (Yoo, Akh, S, Msb, K,) and of the former شِرَارٌ; (Ham p. 514;) and you say قَوْمٌ أَشِرَّآءُ [pl. of شَرٌّ or of ↓ شَرِيرٌ]. (S.) A woman of the Arabs, (S, L,) who, accord. to some, was of the Benoo-'Ámir, (L,) is related to have said, ↓ أُعِيذُكِ بِاللّٰهِ مِنْ نَفْسٍ حَرَّى وَعَيْنٍ شُرَّى, meaning [I charm thee by invoking God, against a thirsty soul, and] an evil, or a malignant, eye: (S, L:) or an eye that looks at one with vehement hatred. (TA.) And الشَّرُّ [The evil one] is an appellation of Iblees. (K.) b5: [It is also used to denote the comparative and superlative degrees; like the contr. خَيْرٌ.] You say, هُوَ شَرٌّ مِنْكَ [He is worse, or more evil or wrongdoing &c., than thou]. (K.) And هٰذَا شَرٌّ مِنْ ذَاكَ [This is worse, &c., than that]. (Msb.) And فُلَانٌ شَرُّ النَّاسِ [Such a one is the worst, &c., of mankind]; (S;) and ↓ أَشَرُّ; (S, Msb, K;) this latter being the original, (Mgh, Msb,) but rare, (K,) or bad, (S, K,) peculiar to the dial. of the Benoo-'Ámir, (Msb,) or unused. (Mgh.) The fem. [of شَرٌّ] is شَرَّةٌ, [like as the fem. of its contr., خَيْرٌ, is خَيْرَةٌ,] (K,) and (of أَشَرُّ, S, * or of شَرٌّ, which is used for أَشَرُّ, Kr) ↓ شُرَّى. (S, Kr, K.) And [using the dim. form of شَرٌّ,] you say, مِنْكَ ↓ هُوَ شُرَيْرٌ [He is a little worse, &c., than thou]. (Ibn-Buzurj, TA in art. خير. [See خَيْرٌ.]) A2: مَا شَرَّ for مَا أَشَرَّ: see 4.

شُرٌّ A vice, fault, defect, blemish, or something amiss: (TA:) a thing disapproved, disliked, or hated. (K, TA.) You say, مَا رَدَدْتُ هٰذَا عَلَيْكَ مِنْ شُرٍّ بِهِ I did not give this back to thee on account of any fault &c., in it, but I preferred to give it to thee. (TA.)

(L.) And it is said in a trad., الشُّعْثُ الرُّؤُوسِ الَّذِينَ لَا تُفْتَحُ لَهُمُ السُّدَدُ, (S, A,) meaning الأَبْوَابُ [i. e. The shaggy, or dishevelled, and dusty, in the heads are those to whom the doors will not be opened]. (A.) b2: Hence, Umm-Selemeh, addressing' Áïsheh, termed her a سُدَّة, i. e. a بَاب [meaning (assumed tropical:) A means of communication[, between the Prophet and his people. (L, from a trad.)

(M.) سَدَدٌ: see the next paragraph, in four places: b2: and see also سَدِيدٌ.

سَدَادٌ [an inf. n. of the intrans. verb سَدَّ; as also ↓ سَدَدٌ]. [Hence,] one says, إِنَّهُ لَذُو سَدَادٍ Verily he has a faculty of hitting the right thing, or his object or aim, in speaking, and in the managing or disposing of affairs, and in shooting. (TA.) b2: [Hence also, as a subst.,] A thing that is right, syn. صَوَابٌ, (S, A, Msb, K,) and قَصْدٌ, (S,) of what is said and of what is done; (S, A, * Msb, K;) as also ↓ سَدَدٌ, (S, A,) which is a contraction of the former. (S.) One says, قَالَ سَدَادًا مِنَ القَوْلِ He said a right thing [lit. of what is said, i. e., a right saying]; (S, A;) as also ↓ سَدَدًا. (A.) And يُصِيبُ السَّدَادَ He hits the right thing in speech [or action]. (S.) And هُوَ عَلَى سَدَادٍ مِنْ

أَمْرِهِ and ↓ سَدَدٍ [He is following a right course of action in respect of his affair]. (A.) and أَمْرُ فُلَانٍ يَجْرِى عَلَى السَّدَادِ The affair of such a one goes on according to that which is right. (S.) b3: [And hence the saying,] أَتَتْنَا رِيحٌ مِنْ سَدَادِ أَرْضِهِمْ (tropical:) A wind came to us from the direction of their land. (A, TA.) b4: It is also used as an epithet, syn. with سَدِيدٌ, q. v. (L.) b5: and السَّدَادُ [as though meaning The right projecter] is a name that was given to a bow belonging to the Prophet, as ominating the hitting of the object aimed at by that which was shot from it.

(S, K, * TA.) b2: سِدَادٌ مِنْ عَوَزٍ and ↓ سَدَادٌ, (ISk, S, M, Msb, K,) but the former is the more chaste, (S,) and it alone is mentioned by most authors in this saying, because it is from سداد as meaning the “ stopper ” of a bottle; (Msb;) and some say that ↓ سَداد, with fet-h, is a corruption; (Msb, K;) expressly disallowed by As and ISh; (Msb;) a prov.; (Meyd;) meaning (tropical:) A thing by which want is supplied, (S, M, Msb, K,) and by which life is preserved; accord. to ISh, if incomplete; and accord. to As, a thing by which somewhat of the entire wants of one's case is supplied. (Msb.) One says also, أَصَبْتُ بِهِ سِدَادًا مِنَ العَيْشِ and ↓ سَدَادًا (tropical:) I attained thereby a thing by which want was supplied; (S, K, * TA;) or a means of sustaining life.
