سر
1 سَرَّهُ,
accord. to the
TA, has two
contr. significations: for it is there stated that “ one says سَرَرْتُهُ meaning كَتَمْتُهُ and سَرَرْتُهُ meaning أَعْلَنْتُهُ: ” and it is added that “ it will occur again soon: ” but it does not again occur in that work, nor have I found it in any other lexicon: I therefore think that it is a mistranscription, for أَسْرَرْتُهُ, first
Pers\. of أَسَرَّهُ,
q. v.]
A2: سَرَّهُ, (
S,
O,
Msb,
K, &c.,)
aor. ـُ (
MS,)
inf. n. مَسَرَّةٌ (
S,
O,
K) and سُرُورٌ [which latter, from the explanations of it which will be found below, seems to be generally, if not only, as an
inf. n., that of سُرَّ,] and سُرٌّ [which is also
syn. with سُرُورٌ in the senses assigned to the latter below] and سُرَّى and تَسِرَّةٌ [which last may be also an
inf. n. of ↓ سرّرهُ
expl. by Freytag as
syn. with سَرَّهُ in the sense here following, but without an indication of any authority], (
O,
K,) He, or it, rejoiced him; gladdened him; or made him happy;
syn. أَفْرَحَهُ: (
Msb,
K:) [or made him to experience a pleasure, or delight, and dilatation of the heart, of which there was no external sign: see سُرُورٌ, below.] And سُرَّ, [
inf. n. سُرُورٌ, (see above,)] He rejoiced; was joyful, or glad; or was happy: (
S, *
A, *
K:) [or he experienced a pleasure, or delight, and dilatation of the heart, of which there was no external sign;
accord. to an explanation of سُرُورٌ:] you say, سُرَّ بِهِ and ↓ اِسْتَسَرَّ [He rejoiced, was joyful or glad, or was happy, by reason of him, or it]. (
A.)
b2: سَرَّهُ, (
K,)
aor. as above, (
TA,) also signifies He saluted him with [the offering of what are termed] المَسَرَّة, i. e. the extremities of sweet-smelling plants. (
K.)
A3: Also سَرَّهُ, (
S,
M,)
aor. as above,
inf. n. سَرٌّ, (
S,) or سِرٌّ, (so in a copy of the
M,) He cut his (a child's) سِرَر, or سُرّ, i. e. navel-string. (
S,
M.) and سُرَّ He (a child) had his navel-string cut. (
K.)
b2: And سَرَّهُ,
aor. as above, He pierced him, or thrust him, [with a spear or the like,] in his سُرَّة [or navel]: a poet says, وَإِنْ أَدْبَرُوا فَهُمُ مَنْ يُسَبْ نَسُرُّهُمُ إِنْ هُمُ أَقْبَلُوا [We pierce them in the navel if they advance; and if they retreat, they are those who are pierced in the podex; يُسَبْ being for يُسَبُّ]. (
S.)
A4: سَرَّ الزَّنْدَ,
aor. as above,
inf. n. سَرٌّ, He put a piece of wood, (
M,
K,) or a little piece of wood, (
S,) in the interior of the زند [or piece of stick, or wood, for producing fire], (
M,) or in its extremity, (
S,
K,) inserting it in its interior, (
S,) in order that he might produce fire with it. (
S,
M,
K.) One says, سُرَّ زَنْدَكَ فَإِنَّهُ أَسَرُّ Fill up the interior of thy زند, that it may produce fire, (
AHn,
M,) for it is [worn] hollow. (
S,
K.)
A5: سَرَّ, [sec.
Pers\. سَرِرْتَ,]
aor. ـَ (
IAar,
Sgh,
L,
K,)
inf. n. سَرَرٌ, remarked upon by
MF as
extr., [though it is agreeable with a general rule,] said of a man, (
TA,) He had a complaint of the سُرَّة [or navel]. (
IAar,
Sgh,
L,
K.)
b2: Also,
aor. and
inf. n. as in the next preceding case, said of a camel, He had the pain, or disorder, termed سَرَرٌ [
q. v.]. (
IAar,
M.) 2 سَرَّّ see 1, second sentence.
A2: سَرَّرْتُهُ in the phrase سَرَّرْتُهُ سُرِّيَّةً I gave him, or caused him to take, a concubine slave, doubly
trans., is [said to be] changed to سَرَّيْتُهُ for alleviation of the pronunciation. (
Msb.)
A3: سرّرهُ,
inf. n. تَسْرِيرٌ, said of water, It reached his سُرَّة [or navel]. (
K.) 3 سارّهُ,
inf. n. مُسَارَّةٌ and سِرَارٌ, (
S,
M,) [He spoke, or discoursed, secretly to him or with him;] he acquainted him with a secret. (
M.) You say, سارّهُ فِى أُذُنِهِ He spoke secretly to him in his ear. (
S, *
K, *
TK.) And كَانَ يُحَدِّثُهُ كَأَخِى السِّرَارِ occurs in a
trad., meaning He (Mohammad) used to talk to him ('Omar) in a low voice, like him who is telling a secret. (
TA.)
b2: بَيْعُ السِّرَارِ is The selling in which one says, “I will put forth my hand and thou shalt put forth thy hand, and if I produce my signet-ring before thee, it is a sale for such a price; and if thou produce thy signet-ring before me, for such a price: ” if they produce together, or do not both produce, they do thus again. (
Mgh.) 4 اسرّهُ, (
S,
M,
A,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,)
inf. n. إِسْرَارٌ; (
Msb;) [and
accord. to the
TA سَرَّهُ; but see the first sentence of this art.;] He concealed it; suppressed it; kept it secret; (
S,
M,
A,
Mgh,
Msb,
K;) namely, a story, or the like: (
A,
Mgh,
Msb:) and,
contr., he manifested it; revealed it; published it; made it known. (
S,
M,
Msb,
K.) Both of these significations have been assigned to the verb in the phrase وَأَسَرُّوا النَّدَامَةَ, in the
Kur [x. 55 and xxxiv. 32]: (
S:) some say, that the meaning is They will manifest repentance:
Th says, they will conceal it from their chiefs: the former [says
ISd] is the more correct: (
M:) the former meaning is also given on the authority of
AO; but
Sh says, I have not heard it on the authority of any other; and
Az says that the lexicologists most strongly disapprove of the saying of
AO; and it is said that the meaning is, they, the chiefs of the polytheists, will conceal repentance from the lower class of their people, whom they shall have caused to err; and in like manner say
Zj and the [other] expositors. (
TA.) In like manner also the two
contr. significations are assigned to the verb in the saying of Imra-el- Keys, [in his Mo'allakah,] لَوْ يُسِرُّونَ مَقْتَلِى, which
As used to quote with ش, thus, لَوْ يُشِرُّونَ مَقْتَلِى, meaning that they might publish, or make known, my slaughter. (
S.) You say also, أَسَرَّ إِلَيْهِ حَدِيثًا He revealed unto him a story (
S,
K) secretly. (
TA.) An
ex. occurs in the
Kur lxvi. 3. (
TA.) And أَسْرَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ المَوَدَّةَ, and بِالمَوَدَّةِ, I showed, or manifested, to him love, or affection. (
S.) It is said in the
Kur [lx. 1], تُسِرُّونَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَوَدَّةِ, meaning, Ye reveal to them the news of the Prophet by reason of the love that is between you and them; the
objective complement of the verb being suppressed: or المودّة may be an
objective complement, the ب being a redundant
corroborative, as in أَخَذَ الخِطَامَ and أَخَذَ بِهِ: (
Msb:) and this interpretation is correct; for إِسْرَارٌ to a person necessarily implies revealing a secret to him and at the same time concealing it from another. (
B.)
b2: وَأَسَرُّوهُ بِضَاعَةً, in the
Kur xii. 19, signifies And they concealed, or kept secret, his case, making him as an article of merchandise: (
Jel:) or they conjectured in their minds that they should obtain, by selling him, merchandise. (
TA.) [See also an
ex. voce اِرْتَغَى, in art. رغو.]
b3: اسرّ الفَاتِحَةَ, and بِالفَاتِحَةِ, He recited the
Fátihah [or First Chapter of the
Kur-án] secretly, or inaudibly: (
Msb:) or the latter form of expression is a mistake. (
Mgh.)
b4: أَسْرَرْتُهُ also signifies نَسَبْتُهُ إِلَى السِّرِّ [which may mean either I attributed it to secrecy, or, like many phrases of this kind, by inversion, I attributed to him secrecy, or mystery]. (
Msb.) 5 تسرّر and تسرّى, (
M,
K,) and ↓ استسرّ, (
K,) He took to himself a concubine-slave. (
M, *
K, *
TA.) And تَسَرَّرْتُ جَارِيَةً, and تَسَرَّيْتُهَا, (
S,) and ↓ اِسْتَسَرَّيْتُهَا, (
TA,) I took to myself a girl, or young woman, as a concubine-slave. (
S, *
TA.) تَسَرَّرْتُهَا is [said to be] thus changed to تَسَرَّيْتُهَا, (
T,
S,
Msb,) for alleviation of the pronunciation, (
Msb,) on account of the three ر s following one another, (
T,) being like تَظَنَّنْتُ and تَظَنَّيْتُ. (
T, *
S.)
Lth says that تسرّيت is a mistake; but
Az says that it is correct. (
TA.) ↓ اِسْتَسَرَّنِى
occurs in a
trad. as signifying He took me to himself as a concubine-slave; but by rule one should say تَسَرَّرَنِى, or تَسَرَّانِى: as to ↓ استسرّنى, it [more properly] signifies “ He revealed to me his secret. ” (
TA.)
b2: تَسَرَّرَ فُلَانٌ بِنْتَ فُلَانٍ [as though signifying Such a one took to himself the daughter of such a one as a concubine-slave] is said when a man of low birth takes as his wife a woman or girl of high birth because of the abundance of his property and the littleness of hers. (
M.) 6 تسارّوا They spoke, or discoursed, secretly together; acquainted one another with secrets. (
S,
K.) [See also 3.]
A2: تسارّإِلَى ذٰلِكَ (
tropical:) He experienced pleasure, or delight, at that: as, for instance, at his scratching a part of his body, or pressing, or kneading, it; and at a thing disliked by another person. (
A,
TA.) [But I am in some doubt as to the correctness of this, and incline to think that it is a mistake for ↓ استسرّ.]
10 استسرّ He, or it, became concealed; or he, or it, concealed himself or itself: (
K:) it (a thing, or an affair,) became hidden or concealed or secret: (
A,
Msb:) it (the moon) became concealed (
S,
M,
A,
TA) by the light of the sun, (
TA,) [i. e. by its proximity to the sun,] for one night, or for two nights. (
AO,
S.)
A2: استسرّهُ He took extraordinary pains in concealing it, or keeping it secret. (
TA.)
b2: See also 5, in four places.
b3: اِسْتَسَرَّنِى He revealed to me his secret. (
TA.)
A3: See also 1; and see 6, last sentence.
سَرٌّ A man who rejoices, or gladdens, another; or makes him happy; (
S,
K;) [and so ↓ سَارٌّ:]
fem. سَرَّةٌ; with which ↓ سَارَّةٌ is
syn. (

A2: and سِرٌّ, last sentence but one.
A3: It is also a contraction of سُرُرٌ,
pl. of سَرِيرٌ. (
Sb,
M.)
A4: Also, and ↓ سِرَرٌ, (
S,
M,
K,) and ↓ سَرَرٌ, (
S,
K, in the
CK سُرَر,) The navel-string of a child; i. e. the thing that the midwife cuts off from the navel (سُرَّة) of a child; (
S,
K;) the thing that hangs from the navel (سُرَّة) of a newborn child, and that is cut off: or ↓ سِرَرٌ signifies the part that is cut off thereof, and that goes away: (
M:)
pl. (of سِرَرٌ,
S, [or of سُرٌّ or سَرَرٌ,]) أَسِرَّةٌ, (Yaakoob,
S,
M,
K,) which is
extr. (
M.) One says, عَرَفْتُ ذٰلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُقْطَعَ سُرُّكَ [I knew that before thy navel-string was cut]: one should not say سُرَّتُكَ; for the سُرَّة is not cut. (
S.) and وَاحِدِ ↓ وَلَدَتْ ثَلَاثَةً فِى سَرَرٍ She brought forth three [boys] consecutively, or one at the heels of another. (
M.) [See also سِرٌّ, last sentence.]
سِرٌّ A secret; a thing that is concealed, or suppressed, (

A,
K:) or the former has the above-mentioned signification, and the latter signifies a secret action, whether good or evil: (
Lth:) [and the former, also, a mystery:]
pl. of the former, أَسْرَارٌ; (
S,
M,
A,
Mgh,
Msb,
K;) and of the latter, سَرَائِرُ. (
S,
A,
K.) It is said in a
prov., مَا يَوْمُ حَلِيمَةَ بِسِرٍّ [The day of Haleemeh is not a secret]: applied to anything commonly known: alluding to Haleemeh the daughter of El-Hárith the son of Aboo-Shemir El-Ghassánee; for, when her father sent an army to El-Mundhir the son of
Má-es-Semà, she took forth for the soldiers some perfume in a vessel (مِرْكَن), and perfumed them with it. (
S.) [You say also, هُوَ مَوْضِعُ سِرِّى He is the depositary of my secret, or secrets.] The words of the
Kur [lxxxvi. 9] ↓ يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ signify In the day wherein the secret tenets and intentions shall be tried and revealed: (

سَرُورٌ: see what next follows.
سُرُورٌ, (
S,
M,
A,
Msb,) or ↓ سَرُورٌ, when used as a simple
subst., (

Er-Rághib,
TA in art. فرح:) or سُرُورٌ signifies pleasure, or delight, and dilatation of the heart, of which there is no external sign; distinguished from حُبُورٌ, which is cheerfulness, i. e., pleasure, or delight, or dilatation of the heart, which has a visible effect in the aspect. (

pl. [of pauc.] أَسِرَّةٌ and [of mult.] سُرُرٌ, (

M,
Msb,
K,) and some, for the latter, say سُرَرٌ, as more easy of pronunciation, (
S,
Msb,) and make the same change in other similar pls., (
S,) and he who says صِيْدٌ [for صُيُدٌ,
pl. of صَيُودٌ,] says سُرٌّ for سُرُرٌ. (
Sb,
M.) It is said to be derived from سُرُورٌ, because it generally belongs to persons of ease and affluence and of authority, and to kings. (

S,
K,) and whom he takes as a possession and for concubitus: (
TA:) of the measure فُعْلِيَّةٌ, (
S,
M,
Mgh,
Msb,) from سِرٌّ as signifying “ concubitus,” (
S,
M, *
Mgh,
Msb,
K,) or as signifying “ concealment,” because a man often conceals and protects her from his wife; (
S;) altered from the regular form of a rel.
n., (
S,
M,
Msb,
K,) by its having damm [in the place of kesr]; (
S,
Msb;) for the rel.
n. is sometimes thus altered, as in the instances of دُهْرِىٌّ from الدَّهْرُ and سُهْلِىٌّ from الأَرْضُ السَّهْلَةُ: (
S:) or it is with damm to distinguish it from سِرِّيَّةٌ, which is applied to “ a free woman with whom one has sexual intercourse secretly,” (
Msb,) or “ one who prostitutes herself: ” (
TA:) or it is from سُرٌّ in the sense of سُرُورٌ; because her owner rejoices in her; (
Akh, *
S, *
Msb;) and if so, it is agreeable with
analogy: (
Msb:) so says
A Heyth; and this is the best that has been said respecting it: (
TA:) or it is of the measure فُعُّولَةٌ, from سَرْوٌ, (
M,
Mgh,) the latter و being changed into ى for euphony, and then the [other] و being incorporated into it and thus becoming ى like it, after which the dammeh is changed into a kesreh because the ى is next to it: (
M:) the
pl. is سَرَارِىُّ (
ISk,
S,
TA) and سَرَارٍ; (
ISk,
TA;) the latter, by poetic license. (
Ham p. 304.) سِرِّيَّةٌ A free woman with whom one has sexual intercourse secretly, (

TA, *) or who prostitutes herself: (
