علم التصوف
هو: علم يعرف به كيفية ترقي أهل الكمال، من النوع الإنساني في مدارج سعادتهم، والأمور العارضة لهم في درجاتهم، بقدر الطاقة البشرية.
وأما التعبير عن هذه الدرجات والمقامات، كما هو حقه، فغير ممكن لأن العبارات إنما وضعت للمعاني التي وصل إليها، فهم أهل اللغات.
وأما المعاني التي لا يصل إليها إلا غائب، عن ذاته، فضلا عن قوى بدنه، فليس بممكن أن يوضع لها ألفاظ، فضلا عن أن يعبر عنها بالألفاظ.
فكما أن المعقولات لا تدرك بالأوهام، والموهومات لا تدرك بالخياليات، والتخيلات لا تدرك بالحواس، كذلك ما من شانه أن يعاين بعين اليقين، لا يمكن أن يدرك بعلم اليقين، فالواجب على من يرد ذلك، أن يجتهد في الوصول إليه بالعين، دون أن يطلبه بالبيان، فإنه طور وراء طور العقل.

علم التصوف علم ليس يعرفه * إلا أخو فطنة بالحق معروف
وليس يعرفه من ليس يشهده * وكيف يشهد ضوء الشمس مكفوف
هذا ما ذكره: ابن صدر الدين.
وأما أبو الخير، فإنه جعل الطرف الثاني من كتابه في العلوم المتعلقة بالتصفية، التي هي ثمرة العمل بالعلم.
ولهذا العلم أيضا ثمرة: تسمى: (علوم المكاشفة)، لا يكشف عنها العبارة غير الإشارة.
كما قال النبي - عليه الصلاة والسلام -: (إن من العلم كهيئة المكنون، لا يعرفها إلا العلماء بالله - تعالى -، فإذا نطقوا ينكره أهل الغرة).
فرتب هذا الطرف في: مقدمة، ودوحة، لها: شعب، وثمرة.
وقال: الدوحة: في علوم الباطن.
ولها أربع شعب: العبادات، والعادات، والمهلكات، والمنجيات.
فلخص فيه: كتاب: (إحياء العلوم). للغزالي.
ولم يذكر الثمرة، فكأنه لم يذكر التصوف، المعروف بين أهله.
قال الإمام القشيري: اعلموا أن المسلمين بعد رسول الله - صلى الله تعالى عليه وسلم - لم يتسم أفاضلهم في عصرهم بتسمية علم، سوى صحبة الرسول - عليه الصلاة والسلام -، إذ لا أفضلية فوقها، فقيل لهم: الصحابة.
ولما أدركهم أهل العصر الثاني، سمي من صحب الصحابة: (بالتابعين).
ثم اختلف الناس، وتباينت المراتب، فقيل لخواص الناس، ممن لهم شدة عناية بأمر الدين: الزهاد، والعباد.
ثم ظهرت البدعة، وحصل التداعي بين الفرق، فكل فريق ادعوا: أن فيهم زهادا، فانفرد خواص أهل السنة المراعون أنفسهم مع الله - سبحانه وتعالى -، الحافظون قلوبهم عن طوارق الغفلة، باسم: (التصوف).
واشتهر هذا الاسم لهؤلاء الأكابر: قبل المائتين من الهجرة. انتهى.
وأول من سمي بالصوفي:
أبو هاشم الصوفي.
المتوفى: سنة 150، خمسين ومائة.
واعلم: أن الإشراقيين من الحكماء الإلهيين: كالصوفيين في المشرب، والاصطلاح.
خصوصا المتأخرين منهم، إلا ما يخالف مذهبهم مذهب أهل الإسلام، ولا يبعد أن يؤخذ هذا الاصطلاح من اصطلاحهم، كما لا يخفى على من تتبع كتب حكمة الإشراق.
وفي هذا الفن كتب غير محصورة، ذكرنا منها ما أثبتناه في هذا السفر، على ترتيبه إجمالا.

قال عبد الرحمن بن خلدون: هذا العلم من العلوم الشرعية الحادثة في الملة.
وأصله: أن طريقة هؤلاء القوم لم تزل عند سلف الأمة وكبارها من الصحابة والتابعين ومن بعدهم طريقة الحق والهداية.
وأصلها: العكوف على العبادة والانقطاع إلى الله تعالى والإعراض عن زخرف الدنيا وزينتها والزهد فيما يقبل عليه الجمهور من لذة ومال وجاه والانفراد عن الخلق في الخلوة للعبادة وكان ذلك عاما في الصحابة والسلف فلما فشا الإقبال على الدنيا في القرن الثاني وما بعده وجنح الناس إلى مخالطة الدنيا اختص المقبلون على العبادة باسم: الصوفية والمتصوفة.
وقال القشيري - رحمه الله -: ولا يشهد لهذا الاسم اشتقاق من جهة العربية ولا قياس والظاهر إنه لقب ومن قال: اشتقاقه من الصفا أو من الصفة فبعيد من جهة القياس اللغوي قال: وكذلك من الصوف لأنهم لم يختصوا بلبسه قلت: والأظهر إن قيل: بالاشتقاق أنه من الصوف وهم في الغالب مختصون بلبسه لما كانوا عليه من مخالفة الناس في لبس فاخر الثياب إلى لبس الصوف فلما اختص هؤلاء بمذهب الزهد والانفراد عن الخلق والإقبال على العبادة اختصوا بمآخذ مدركة لهم وذلك أن الإنسان بما هو إنسان إنما يتميز عن سائر الحيوان بالإدراك وإدراكه نوعان: إدراك للعلوم والمعارف من اليقين والظن والشك والوهم وإدراك للأحوال القائمة من الفرح والحزن والقبض والبسط والرضاء والغضب والصبر والشكر. وأمثال ذلك. فالروح العاقل والمتصرف في البدن تنشأ من إدراكات وإرادات وأحوال وهي التي يميز بها الإنسان وبعضها ينشأ من بعض كما ينشأ العلم من الأدلة والفرح والحزن عن إدراك المؤلم أو المتلذذ به والنشاط عن الحمام والكسل عن الإعياء وكذلك المريد في مجاهدته لا بد وأن ينشأ عن كل مجاهدة حال نتيجة تلك المجاهدة وتلك الحالة: إما أن تكون نوع عبادة فترسخ وتصير مقاما للمريد وإما أن لا تكون عبادة وإنما تكون صفة حاصلة للنفس من حزن وسرور ونشاط أو كسل أو غير ذلك من المقامات.
ولا يزال المريد يترقى من مقام إلى مقام إلى أن ينتهي إلى التوحيد والمعرفة التي هي الغاية المطلوبة للسعادة.
قال - صلى الله عليه وسلم -: "من مات يشهد أن لا إله إلا الله دخل الجنة" فالمريد لا بد له من الترقي في هذه الأطوار وأصلها كلها الطاعة والإخلاص ويتقدمها الإيمان ويصاحبها وتنشأ عن الأحوال والصفات نتائج وثمرات ثم تنشأ عنها أخرى وأخرى إلى مقام التوحيد والعرفان وإذا وقع تقصير في النتيجة أو خلل فنعلم أنه إنما أتى من قبل التقصير في الذي قبله.
وكذلك في الخواطر النفسانية والواردات القلبية فلهذا يحتاج المريد إلى محاسبة نفسه في سائر أعماله وينظر في حقائقها لأن حصول النتائج عن الأعمال ضروري وقصورها من الخلل فيها كذلك والمريد يجد ذلك بذوقه ويحاسب نفسه عن أسبابه ولا يشاركهم في ذلك إلا القليل من الناس لأن الغفلة عن هذا كأنها شاملة وغاية أهل العبادات إذا لم ينتهوا إلى هذا النوع إنهم يأتون بالطاعات مخلصة من نظر الفقه في الأجزاء والأمثال وهؤلاء يبحثون عن نتائجها بالأذواق والمواجد ليطلعوا على أنها خالصة من التقصير أولا فظهر أن أصل طريقتهم كلها محاسبة النفس على الأفعال والتروك والــكلام في هذه الأذواق والمواجد التي تحصل عن المجاهدات ثم تستقر للمريد مقاما ويترقى منها إلى غيرها ثم لهم مع ذلك آداب مخصوصة بهم واصطلاحات في ألفاظ تدور بينهم إذ الأوضاع اللغوية إنما هي للمعاني المتعارفة فإذا عرض من المعاني ما هو غير متعارف اصطلحنا عن التعبير عنه بلفظ يتيسر فهمه منه فلهذا أختص هؤلاء بهذا النوع من العلم الذي ليس لواحد غيرهم من أهل الشريعة الــكلام فيه وصار علم الشريعة على صنفين: صنف مخصوص الفقهاء وأهل الفتيا وهي الأحكام العامة في العبادات والعادات والمعاملات وصنف مخصوص بالقوم في القيام بهذه المجاهدة ومحاسبة النفس عليها والــكلام في الأذواق والمواجد العارضة في طريقها وكيفية الترقي منها من ذوق إلى ذوق وشرح الاصطلاحات التي تدور بينهم في ذلك فلما كتبت العلوم ودونت وألف الفقهاء في الفقة وأصوله والــكلام والتفسير وغير ذلك كتب رجال من أهل هذه الطريقة في طريقهم فمنهم من كتب في الورع ومحاسبة النفس على الاقتداء في الأخذ والترك كما فعله القشيري في كتاب: الرسالة والسهروردي في كتاب: عوارف المعارف وأمثالهم وجمع الغزالي - رحمه الله - بين الأمرين في كتاب: الإحياء فدون فيه أحكام الورع والاقتداء ثم بين آداب القوم وسننهم وشرح اصطلاحاتهم في عباراتهم وصار علم التصوف في الملة علما مدونا بعد أن كانت الطريقة عبادة فقط وكانت أحكامها إنما تتلقى من صدور الرجال كما وقع في سائر العلوم التي دونت بالكتاب من التفسير والحديث والفقه والأصول وغير ذلك.
ثم إن هذه المجاهدة والخلوة والذكر يتبعها غالبا كشف حجاب الحس والإطلاع على علم من أمر الله ليس لصاحب الحس إدراك شيء منها والروح من تلك العوالم وسبب هذا الكشف: أن الروح إذا رجع عن الحس الظاهر إلى الباطن ضعفت أحوال الحس وقويت أحوال الروح وغلب سلطانه وتجدد نشوه وأعان على ذلك الذكر فإنه كالغذاء لتنمية الروح ولا يزال في نمو وتزيد إلى أن يصير شهودا بعد أن كان علما ويكشف حجاب الحس ويتم وجود النفس والعلوم اللدنية والفتح الإلهي وتقرب ذاته في تحقق حقيقتها من الأفق الأعلى أفق الملائكة.
وهذا الكشف كثيرا ما يعرض لأهل المجاهدة فيدركون من حقائق الوجود ما لا يدرك سواهم وكذلك يدركون كثيرا من الواقعات قبل وقوعها ويتصرفون بهممهم وقوى نفوسهم في الموجودات السفلية وتصير طوع إرادتهم فالعظماء منهم لا يعتبرون هذا الكشف ولا يتصرفون ولا يخبرون عن حقيقة شيء لم يؤمروا بالتكلم فيه بل يعدون ما يقع لهم من ذلك محنة ويتعوذون منه إذا هاجمهم وقد كان الصحابة - رضي الله عنهم - على مثل هذه المجاهدة وكان حظهم من هذه الكرامات أوفر الحظوظ لكنهم لم تقع لهم بها عناية وفي فضائل أبي بكر وعمر وعثمان وعلي - رضي الله عنهم - كثير منها وتبعهم في ذلك أهل الطريقة ممن اشتملت: رسالة القشيري على ذكرهم ومن تبع طريقتهم من بعدهم.
ثم إن قوما من المتأخرين انصرفت عنايتهم إلى كشف الحجاب والمدارك التي وراءه واختلفت طرق الرياضة عنهم في ذلك باختلاف تعليمهم في إماتة القوى الحسية وتغذية الروح العاقل بالذكر حتى يحصل للنفس إدراكها التي لها من ذاتها بتمام نشوتها وتغذيتها فإذا حصل ذلك زعموا أن الوجود قد انحصر في مداركها حينئذ وأنهم اكتشفوا ذوات الوجود وتصوروا حقائقها كلها من العرش إلى الطش هكذا قال الغزالي في كتاب: الإحياء بعد أن ذكر صورة الرياضة.
ثم إن هذا الكشف لا يكون صحيحا كاملا عندهم إلا إذا كان ناشئا عن الاستقامة: لأن الكشف قد يحصل لصاحب الجوع والخلوة وإن لم تكن هناك استقامة كالسحرة والنصارى وغيرهم من المرتاضين وليس مراده إلا الكشف الناشئ عن الاستقامة ومثاله أن المرآة الصقلية إذا كانت محدبة أو مقعرة وحوذي بها جهة المرئي فإنه يتشكل فيه معرجا على غير صورته وإن كانت مسطحة تشكل فيها المرئي صحيحا فالاستقامة للنفس كالانبساط للمرآة فيما ينطبع فيها من الأحوال ولما عني المتأخرون بهذا النوع من الكشف تكلموا في حقائق الموجودات العلوية والسفلية وحقائق الملك والروح والعرش والكرسي وأمثال ذلك وقصرت مدارك من لم يشاركهم في طريقهم عن فهم أذواقهم ومواجدهم في ذلك وأهل القيابين منكر عليهم ومسلم لهم وليس البرهان والدليل بنافع في هذه الطريق ردا وقبولا إذ هي من قبيل الوجدانيات وربما قصد بعض المصنفين بيان مذهبهم في كشف الوجود وترتيب حقائقه فأتى بالأغمض فالأغمض بالنسبة إلى أهل النظر والاصطلاحات والعلوم كما فعل الفرغاني شارح قصيدة ابن الفارض في: الديباجة التي كتبها في صدر ذلك الشرح فإنه ذكر في صدور الوجود عن الفاعل وترتيبه: أن الوجود كله صادر عن صفة الوحدانية التي هي مظهر الأحدية وهما معا صادران عن الذات الكريمة التي هي عين الوحدة لا غير ويسمون هذا الصدور بالتجلي وأول مراتب التجليات عندهم تجلي الذات على نفسه وهو يتضمن الكمال بإفاضة الإيجاد والظهور لقوله في الحديث1 الذي يتناقلونه: كنت كنزا مخفيا فأحببت أن أعرف فخلقت الخلق ليعرفوني.
وهذا الكمال في الإيجاد المتنزل في الوجود وتفصيل الحقائق وهو عندهم عالم المعاني والحضرة الكمالية والحقيقة المحمدية وفيها حقائق الصفات واللوح والقلم وحقائق الأنبياء والرسل أجمعين والكمال من أهل الملة المحمدية وهذا كله تفصيل الحقيقة المحمدية ويصدر عن هذه الحقائق حقائق أخرى في الحضرة البهائية وهي مرتبة المثال ثم عنها العرش ثم الكرسي ثم الأفلاك ثم عالم العناصر ثم عالم التركيب.
هذا في عالم الرتق فإذا تجلت فهي في عالم الفتق ويسمى هذا المذهب: مذهب أهل التجلي والمظاهر والحضرات وهو كلام يقتدر أهل النظر على تحصيل مقتضاه لغموضه وانغلاقه وبعد ما بين كلام صاحب المشاهدة والوجدان وصاحب الدليل وربما أنكر بظاهر الشرع هذا الترتيب وكذلك ذهب آخرون منهم إلى القول: بالوحدة المطلقة وهو رأي أغرب من الأول في تعقله وتفاريعه يزعمون فيه أن الوجود له قوى في تفاصيله بها كانت حقائق الموجودات وصورها وموادها والعناصر إنما كانت بما فيها من القوى وكذلك مادتها لها في نفسها قوة بها كان وجودها ثم إن المركبات فيها تلك القوى متضمنة في القوة التي كان بها التركيب كالقوة المعدنية فيها قوى العناصر بميولها وزيادة القوة المعدنية ثم القوة الحيوانية ثم الفلك يتضمن القوة الإنسانية وزيادة وكذا الذوات الروحانية والقوة الجامعة للكل من غير تفصيل هي: القوة الإلهية التي انبثت في جميع الموجودات كلية وجزئية وجمعتها وأحاطت بها من كل وجه لا من جهة الظهور ولا من جهة الخفاء ولا من جهة الصورة ولا من جهة المادة فالكل واحد وهو نفس الذات الإلهية وهي في الحقيقة واحدة بسيطة والاعتبار هو المفصل لها كالإنسانية مع الحيوانية ألا ترى أنها مندرجة فيها وكائنة بكونها فتارة يمثلونها بالجنس مع النوع في كل موجود كما ذكرناه وتارة بالكل مع الجزء على طريقة المثال وهم في هذا كله يفرون من التركيب والكثرة بوجه من الوجوه وإنما أوجبها عندهم الوهم والخيال.
والذي يظهر من كلام ابن دهقان في تقرير هذا المذهب أن حقيقة ما يقولونه في الوحدة شبيه بما يقوله الحكماء في الألوان: من أن وجودها مشروطة بالضوء فإذا عدم الضوء لم تكن الألوان موجودة بوجه وكذا عندهم الموجودات المحسوسة كلها مشروطة بوجود المدرك الحسي بل والموجودات المعقولة والمتوهمة أيضا مشروطة بوجود المدرك العقلي فإذا الوجود المفصل كله مشروط بوجود المدرك البشري فلو فرضنا عدم المدرك البشري جملة لم يكن هناك تفصيل الوجود بل هو بسيط واحد فالحر والبرد والصلابة واللين بل والأرض والماء والنار والسماء والكواكب إنما وجدت لوجود الحواس المدركة لها لما جعل في المدرك من التفصيل الذي ليس في الموجود وإنما هو في المدرك فقط فإذا فقدت المدارك المفصلة فلا تفصيل إنما هو إدراك واحد وهو أنا لا غيره ويعتبرون ذلك بحال النائم فإنه إذا نام وفقد الحس الظاهر فقد كل محسوس وهو في تلك الحالة إلا ما يفصله له الخيال.
قالوا: فكذا اليقظان إنما يعتبر تلك المدركات كلها على التفصيل بنوع مدركه البشري ولو قدر فقد مدركة فقد التفصيل وهذا هو معنى قولهم: الموهم لا الوهم الذي هو من جملة المدارك البشرية.
وهذا ملخص رأيهم على ما يفهم من كلام ابن دهقان وهو في غاية السقوط لأنا نقطع بوجود البلد الذي نحن مسافرون عنه وإليه يقينا مع غيبته عن أعيننا وبوجود السماء المظلة والكواكب وسائر الأشياء الغائبة عنا.
والإنسان قاطع بذلك ولا يكابر أحد نفسه في اليقين مع أن المحققين من المتصوفة المتأخرين يقولون: إن المريد عند الكشف ربما يعرض له توهم هذه الوحدة ويسمى ذلك عندهم مقام الجمع ثم يترقى عنه إلى التمييز بين الموجودات ويعبرون عن ذلك بمقام الفرق وهو مقام العارف المحقق ولا بد للمريد عندهم من عقبة الجمع وهي عقبة صعبة لأنه يخشى على المريد من وقوفه عندها فتخسر صفقته فقد تبينت مراتب أهل هذه الطريقة.
ثم إن هؤلاء المتأخرين من المتصوفة المتكلمين في الكشف وفيما وراء الحس توغلوا في ذلك فذهب الكثير منهم إلى الحلول والوحدة كما أشرنا إليه وملأوا الصحف منه مثل الهروي في كتاب: المقامات له وغيره وتبعهم ابن العربي وابن سبعين وتلميذهما ابن العفيف وابن الفارض والنجم الإسرائيلي في قصائدهم. وكان سلفهم مخالطين للإسماعيلية المتأخرين من الرافضة الدائنين أيضا بالحلول وإلاهية الأئمة مذهبا لم يعرف لأولهم فأشرب كل واحد من الفريقين مذهب الآخر واختلط كلامــهم وتشابهت عقائدهم وظهر في كلام المتصوفة القول بالقطب معناه: رأس العارفين يزعمون أنه لا يمكن يساويه أحد في مقامه في المعرفة حتى يقبضه الله ثم يورث مقامه الآخر من أهل العرفان.
وقد أشار إلى ذلك ابن سينا في كتاب: الإشارات في فصول التصوف منها فقال: جل جناب الحق أن يكون شرحه لكل وارد أو يطلع عليه إلا الواحد بعد الواحد وهذا كلام لا تقوم عليه حجة عقلية ولا دليل شرعي وإنما هو من أنواع الخطابة وهو بعينه ما تقوله الرافضة ودانوا به.
ثم قالوا بترتيب وجود الأبدال بعد هذا القطب كما قاله الشيعة في: النقباء حتى أنهم لما أسندوا لباس خرقة التصوف ليجعلوه أصلا لطريقتهم وتخليهم رفعوه إلى علي - رضي الله عنه - وهو من هذا المعنى أيضا وإلا فعلي - رضي الله عنه - لم يختص من بين الصحابة بتخلية ولا طريقة في لباس ولا حال بل كان أبو بكر وعمر - رضي الله عنهما - أزهد الناس بعد رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - وأكثرهم عبادة ولم يختص أحد منهم في الدين بشيء يؤثر عنه في الخصوص بل كان الصحابة كلهم أسوة في الدين والزهد والمجاهدة يشهد لذلك من كلام هؤلاء المتصوفة في أمر الفاطمي وما شجنوا كتبهم به في ذلك مما ليس لسلف المتصوفة فيه كلام بنفي أو إثبات وإنما هو مأخوذ من كلام الشيعة والرافضة ومذاهبهم في كتبهم - والله يهدي إلى الحق.
ثم إن كثيرا من الفقهاء وأهل الفتيا انتدبوا للرد على هؤلاء المتأخرين في هذه المقالات وأمثالها وشملوا بالنكير وسائر ما وقع لهم في الطريقة والحق أن كلامــهم معهم فيه تفصيل فإن كلامــهم في أربعة مواضع: أحدها الــكلام على المجاهدات وما يحصل من الأذواق والمواجد ومحاسبة النفس على الأعمال لتحصل تلك الأذواق التي تصير مقاما ويترقى منه إلى غيره كما قلناه.
وثانيها: الــكلام في الكشف والحقيقة المدركة من عالم الغيب مثل: الصفات الربانية والعرش والكرسي والملائكة والوحي والنبوة والروح وحقائق كل موجود غائب أو شاهد وتركيب الأكوان في صدورها عن موجدها وتكونها كما مر.
وثالثها: التصرفات في العوالم والأكوان بأنواع الكرامات.
ورابعها: ألفاظ موهمة الظاهر صدرت من كثير من أئمة القوم يعبرون عنها في اصطلاحهم بالشطحيات تستشكل ظواهرها فمنكر ومحسن ومتأول.
فأما الــكلام في المجاهدات والمقامات وما يحصل من الأذواق والمواجد في نتائجها ومحاسبة النفس على التقصير في أسبابها فأمر لا مدفع فيه لأحد وأذواقهم فيه صحيحة والتحقيق بها هو عين السعادة.
وأما الــكلام في كرامات القوم وأخبارهم1 بالمغيبات وتصرفهم في الكائنات فأمر صحيح غير منكر، وإن مال بعض العلماء إلى إنكارها فليس ذلك من الحق وما احتج به الأستاذ أبو إسحاق الإسفرائيني من أئمة الأشعرية على إنكارها لالتباسها بالمعجزة فقد فرق المحققون من أهل السنة بينهما بالتحدي وهو: دعوى وقوع المعجزة على وفق ما جاء به قالوا: ثم إن وقوعها على وفق دعوى الكاذب غير مقدور: لأن دلالة المعجرة على الصدق عقلية فإن صفة نفسها التصديق فلو وقعت مع الكاذب لتبدلت صفة نفسها وهو محال هذا مع أن الوجود شاهد بوقوع الكثير من هذه الكرامات وإنكارها نوع مكابرة وقد وقع للصحابة وأكابر السلف كثير من ذلك وهو معلوم مشهور.
وأما الــكلام في الكشف وإعطاء حقائق العلويات وترتيب صدور الكائنات فأكثر كلامــهم فيه نوع من المتشابه لما أنه وجداني عندهم وفاقد الوجدان عندهم بمعزل عن أذواقهم فيه واللغات لا تعطي دلالة على مرادهم منه لأنها لم توضع إلا للمتعارف وأكثر من المحسوسات فينبغي أن لا نتعرض لــكلامــهم في ذلك ونتركه فيما تركناه من المتشابه ومن رزقه الله فهم شيء من هذه الكلمات على الوجه الموافق لظاهر الشريعة - فأكرم بها سعادة.
وأما الألفاظ الموهمة التي يعبرون عنها بالشطيحات ويؤاخذهم بها أهل الشرع فاعلم أن الإنصاف في شأن القوم أنهم أهل غيبة عن الحس والواردات تملكهم حتى ينطقوا عنهما بما لا يقصدونه وصاحب الغيبة غير مخاطب والمجبور معذور فمن علم منهم فضله واقتداؤه حمل على القصد الجميل من هذا وإن العبارة عن المواجد صعبة: لفقدان الوضع لها كما وقع لأبي يزيد وأمثاله ومن لم يعلم فضله ولا اشتهر فمؤاخذ بما صدر عنه من ذلك إذا لم يتبين لنا ما يحملنا على تأويل كلامــه وأما من تكلم بمثلها وهو حاضر في حسه ولم يملكه الحال فمؤاخذ أيضا ولهذا أفتى الفقهاء وأكابر المتصوفة بقتل الحلاج: لأنه تكلم في حضور وهو مالك لحاله والله أعلم.
وسلف المتصوفة من أهل الرسالة أعلام الملة الذين أشرنا إليهم من قبل لم يكن لهم حرص على كشف الحجاب ولا هذا النوع من الإدراك إنما همهم الاتباع والاقتداء ما استطاعوا ومن عرض له شيء من ذلك عرض عنه ولم يحفل به بل يفرون منه ويرون أنه من العوائق والمحن وأنه إدراك من إدراكات النفس مخلوق حادث وأن الموجودات لا تنحصر في مدارك الإنسان وعلم الله أوسع وخلقه أكبر وشريعته بالهداية أملك فلا ينطقون بشيء مما يدركون بل حظروا الخوض في ذلك ومنعوا من يكشف له الحجاب من أصحابهم من الخوض فيه والوقوف عنده بل يلتزمون طريقتهم كما كانوا في عالم الحس قبل الكشف من الاتباع والاقتداء ويأمرون أصحابهم بالتزامها.
وهكذا ينبغي أن يكون حال المريد والله الموفق للصواب. انتهى كلام ابن خلدون رحمه الله.
وما ذكر من كرامات الأولياء فهو حق يدل عليه القرآن والسنة وما ذكر من التصرفات في العوالم والأخبار عن المغيبات ففيه نظر وتفصيل ذكر في محله فليعلم - والله أعلم.

عرض: عرض نَفْسَه على فلان: عرّفه بنفسه.
وحضر أمامه وقدّم نفسه إليه. ففي النويري (الأندلس ص480) وأعلن سليمان نفسه خليفة عند البربر وسار معهم إلى وادي القصارة الذي استولوا عليه وعرضوا أنفسهم على واضح العامري- صاحب مدينة سالم فلم يقبلهم.
عَرَض: أعلن عن اسمه. (الأغاني ص31).
عَرَض: تضرع، توسل، ترامي (بوشر).
عرض نفسه على الخلاء: ذهب إلى الخلاء ليتغوط (ابن الجوزي ص148 و).
عرض البلاء على: انتقم، أخذ بالثأر (فوك).
عَرَض: استظهر، تلا (لين 2003)، قرأ عن ظهر قلب، قرأ من حفظه. ويستعمل هذا الفعل ويقال: عرض الشيخ الكتاب إذا قرأه في دروسه عن ظهر قلب. كما يقال: عرض التلميذ إذا قرأ عن ظهر قلب ما يحفظه لكي يستفيد من ملاحظات الشيخ وتصحيحاته. أو يقرأ بعض الكتب عن ظهر قلب لكي يثبت إنه يحفظها، وبعبارة أخرى ليجتاز الامتحان (رسالة إلى السيد فليشر ص159 وما يليها).
وفي محيط المحيط: والعَرْض عند المحدّثين هو قراءة الحديث على الشيخ.
عَرَض أو عرض على: قابل بين نصّ واصله (المقدمة 1: 9).
عَرَض: ثلب، حقر، حطّ من (هلو).
عرضنا وداعتك. (ألف ليلة برسل 9: 393) ولا بد أن معناها قلنا له نستودعك الله. وفي طبعة ماكن: استودعناك الله ..
ما عرضتُ بالصفَد: ليس لي نية لأن اطلب منك عطاء (دي ساسي، النابغة في طرائف دي ساسي (1382) وانظر (ص463).
عَرَّض (بالتشديد). عرَّض فلانا لكذا: جعله عرضة وهدفاً له، كما ذكر فوك وفيه: عرَّض نفسه ل.
عرَّض: متعد، بنفسه لا باللام، ففي كوسج (طرائف من 147): لقد عرضتنا ونَفْسَك شراً. وفي الأخبار (ص39): وقد وعد أن لا يعرضهم البربر. أي لا يجعلهم غرضاً وهدفاً لأعدائهم البربر. وكذلك في (ص56) وفي (ص42): عرَّضتَنا أكل الكلاب والجلود. أي أطعمتنا الكلاب والجلود.
عرَّض بفلان .. في كتاب محمد بن الحارث (ص205): ماذا عرضتما بالرجل. أي إلى أي خطر جعلتما هذا الرجل عرضة وهدفاً. وفيه (ص209): أن عاندنا فقد عرَّض بنفسه ودمه.
عرَّض: قاوم، ناوء، ناقض (دومب ص130).
عَرّض: جعله يقرأ عن ظهر قلب. (شيرب ديال ص213).
عَرَّض: دعا، وحثَ وحرض وأغرى (هلو).
عارَض: أزعج، كدَّر، أرهن. (أماري ديب ص131).
عارَض: لام، عاتب (فوك) وفيه إنه مرادف: عذل، وعاتب.
عارَض: ففي رياض النفوس (ص96 ق): أتى فلان إلى كتَّابي فعارض الصبيان في الفساد. أي أراد إغواء الصبيان وإفساد أخلاقهم. وأرى أن فوك فكر بهذا المعنى حين قال: إنه مرادف راود.
عارض فلاناً وعارضه به: أراه شيئاً (معجم الطرائف) وقد ترجمت العبارة التي وردت في (ص135) إلى الفرنسية (بما معناه): قال أني لم أفعل ما تلومني عليه فهي ليست إلا شائعة أشاعها عني من يكرهني ويبغضني والذين يسرهم أن يصيبني سوء الحظ وتنزل بي نوائب الدهر طوارقه وقوارعه. وبعد أن قال هذا أقسم له أن يتجنب ما يتهمونه به، وعندئذ تركه العباس وشأنه. فلهذا الفعل إذا معناه المألوف الذي ذكره لين وهو أعرض عنه أي صدّ وولىَّ.
عارض: بمعنى درس الكتاب مع آخر (لين تاج العروس). وهذا الفعل يتعدى بنفسه إلى مفعولين، ففي حياة ابن خلدون (ص207 و) في الــكلام عن أحد الشيوخ: كان يعارض السلطان القرآن برواياته السبع إلى أن توفَي.
عارض في الأمور: لم يتبين لي معناها في العبارة التي في مادة دسَّ اعرض: عبرّ عن، أبان، وضّح. (بوشر).
أعرض: عرض. (رولاند).
أعرض عن: تظاهر بعدم ملاحظة الشيء (فوك).

أعرض نفسه ل: عرَّض نفسه، جعلها هدفاً. (بوشر).
أعرض في أو أعرض ل: تدخل في، شارك في، ووافق عليه ورضي به. (معجم الطرائف). هذا إذا كان الفعل فيه أعرض وليس عرض. تعرَّض له: أخذ شيئاً منه، سرقه، وتجرأ على ملامسته، وتجاسر على استملاكه. ففي كليلة ودمنة (ص241): ولتعلم إنه لم يكن يتعرض لِلَحْم استودعتَه إياه. وفي النويري (مخطوطة رقم 273، 572): وقد أصدر أمراً إلى النصارى أن لا يتعرضوا لماله ولادمه. أي بعدم التجاسر والتعدي على مال المسلم وحياته.
تعرّض لحرم فلان: اعتدى على شرف نسائه (أماري ص284، (انظر تعليقات نقدية) وص500). وفي تاريخ أبي الفداء (ص96): تعرض للمملكة وليس من بيت المملكة. ويقال أيضاً: تعرّض إلى (ابن الأثير 11: 70) وتعرض ب أيضاً، ففي الفخري (ص277) في كلامــه عن الجنود: تعرّضوا بالنساء. ويقال أيضاً تعرَّض فلاناً بمضرَّة وأذية، أي أذاه وأضربه. (أماري دبي ص24، 27).
تعرَّض لي: تعهَّد، عقد تعهداً لشراء شيء ودفع ثمنه. أو يجهزه ويموّنه بثمن معين (بوشر).
تعرَّض: وضع عرضاً. وتوترّ وتمدّد. يقال: تعرضت السلسة (البكري ص39).
تعرّض الجنودُ: استعرضوا، مروا في استعراض عسكري. (أماري ص201) وانظر: تعليقات نقدية.
قعدوا متعرضين: جلسوا الواحد جنب الآخر. ترتبوا بعضهم بجانب البعض الآخر.
(زيشر 22: 155).
اعترض: اجتاز، قطع، عبر، ففي رحلة ابن بطوطة (:70) في الــكلام عن مسجد عمرو بالقاهرة: والطريق يعترضه من شرق إلى غرب.
اعتراض: وضع بالعرض، وتوترّ وتمدَّد. يقال: اعترضت السلسلة. (ابن بطوطة: 1: 131).
اعترض: صدّ، أوقف، منع، أعاق السير، ففي تاريخ البربر (1: 23): اعترضوا هدية باديس من أفريقية إلى مصر فأخذوها.
اعترض: هاجم الجبهة، وهي ضد اعتلى أي هاجم برفع الذراع. (دي ساسي طرائف 2: 444).
اعتراض: على أو اعترض في: زاحم، نافس، ضادّ، ناوأ، تصدّى له. (بوشر).
اعترض على: عارض، ردّ على (بوشر، هلو).
استعرض: لا يقال استعرض المملوك بمعنى طلب شراءه فقط بل بمعنى تفحصه أيضاً.
(انظر كتاب محمد بن الحارث من 238، والثعالبي طبعة كول وبوردا من 38، ألف ليلة 2: 465) وألاحظ أيضاً أن فريتاج حين ذكر: Lustravit at Comparavit rem rei اعتماداً على جان جاك شولتنز فيما يزعم، فانه قد نسب إلى هذا المستشرق الشهير خطأ هو بريء منه. فشولتنز بذكر أولاً Lustravit ( أي استعرض وعاين وفحص) نقلاً عن أبي الفداء، ثم قال بعد ذلك: استعرضت الناقة بحضر موت Comparavi camelam Hadramautae نقلاً عن الحريري (ص485 طبعة دي ساسي) وهذا يعني: اشتريت ناقة بحضر موت. ويؤيد هذا قول بعض اللغويين: والمعنى اشتريتها. غير أن فريتاج فهم من هذه العبارة اللاتينية أنها تعني عارضت وقارنت ناقة بحضر موت، وهذا لغو لا معنى له، ومن الغريب حقاً إنه نقل هذه العبارة من مقامات الحريري في السطر السابق بشرحه أسوأ شرح.
استعرض الجندّ: طلب عرضهم عليه. (عبد الواحد ص72).
استعرض: حاد، تولي عن، صدف، أعرض عنه. ففي بسَّام (3: 5ر): خالعين لسليمان معارضة للطاعة، واستعراضاً للجماعة.
عَرْض. ملك عرض: في الهند هو الذي يعرض الجنود أي يستعرضهم ويتولى قيادتهم. (ابن بطوطة 3: 44)، ويقول صاحب كتاب طبقات الناصري: كان في أيام الأمراء الغوريين موظف يسمى صاحب ديوان عرض ويجب على من يرغب في الخدمة العسكرية أن يحضر أمامه (طبقات الناصري ص458).
عَرْض: وظيفة تقديم العرائض والالتماسات والطلبات إلى السلطان. ففي كرتاس (ص259): ومن كتابه الفقيه الكاتب البارع أبو عبد الله المغيلي كان يتولّى العرض والإنشاء.
عَرْض وجمعها أعراض وعروضات، ويقال أيضاً: عرض حال: تقرير، مذكرة، عريضة، طلب، التماس، مذكرة استرحام، استرحام، رسالة إلى رئيس (بوشر).
عَرْض: وجمعها عُروض: طلب. (هلو) وفي محيط المحيط: عرض الحال عند الكتاب كتاب من الأدنى إلى الاعلى وجمعه وعرض حالات.
عَرْض: بمعنى أثاث المنزل، المفروشات والرياش. وتجمع أيضاً على أعراض (الفخري ص19) وانظر فريتاج في مادة عَرَض.
عَرْض = صَفّ. (زيشر 22: 155) ففي المقري (1: 364): وكان الرجال في المسجد مثل حروف في عرض سطر. وهذا فيما أرى صواب قراءتها وفقاً لما جاء في عدد من المخطوطات ولما جاء في طبعة بولاق بدلاً من عروض. ومنه يقال: من عرض الناس= من جُمْلَة الناس. (1 زيشر 1: 1).
عَرْض: دائرة العمل، منطقة النفوذ والسلطة، وسعة القدرة والطاقة، وسعة العلم والمعرفة وسعة الحال. يقال مثلاً: هذا خارج من عرضه.
عرض الوادي: ضفة النهر (فوك).
عَرْض: بقرة، ثور. (دومب ص64).
من عَرْض الفَحصْ: عند، قرب (فوك) ولا أدري كيف أن هذه العبارة تدل على هذا المعنى.
عِرْض، وجمعها أعراض: قبيلة، عشيرة. ففي كتاب ابن خرداذبه (ص80) وقد نقلت في الحلل ص87 و) حيث يعدد قبائل البربر: أعراض البربر، هوارة وزناتة الخ، وعند رولان (ص352): قبائل رحل. ولعلها في الأصل. المقاطعات والمناطق التي تسكنها مختلف القبائل فسميت بأسمائها. (أنظر ياقوت 1: 541) حيث يتحدث عن البربر فيقول: وهذه من أسماء قبائلهم التي سميّت بهم الأماكن التي نزلوا بها.
عِرْض: شرف. وأهل عرض: أشراف (بوشر).
أكل العرضَ أو الأعراض أو عرضَه: اغتاب، نمّ، شنّع: انتقص من، ثلب، قذف، افترى عليه، وشي. (فوك، ألكالا).
نحن في عرضك: نطرح أنفسنا على مروءتك وشهامتك، كما ترجمها لين (ألف ليلة: 225) وفيها: أن رجلين خافا أن يقتلا فذهبا إلى أمهما وقالا لها: يا أمَّنا نحن في عرضك يا أمنا اشفعي فينا. وفي معجم بوشر: أنا في عرضك: الأمان الأمان! العفو العفو! عُرْض: كما يقال فلان من عرض الناس، يقال: فلان من عرض الجند، أي جند بسيط (مباحث 1 ص38).
عَرَض: جنَي، شيطان، صاحب عرض، وجمعها أصحاب أعراض: به مس من الشيطان (فوك).
عَرِض، عرض الممالك، انظرها في مادة عارض.
عَرْضَة وجمعها عَرَضات: الشيء الذي يُعْرَض ويرى. ففي طرائف فريتاج (ص38): ثم قال لخادمه يا بشرْ إذا أنا مُتُّ فاجعَل الرقاعَ في أكفاني ألُقَي بهما محمداً صلّعم في عَرَضات القيامة. وهذا الضبط للكلمات في المطبوع منه. عُرْضَة ل: مُعرّض ل، هدف ل، ففي العبدري في كلامــة عن خِرْقة تسمى برقع تغطى بها نساء برقة وجوههن: فلا تزال تلك الخرقة عرضة للاتساخ.
عرضْى: قبيلة، عشيرة. (هلو).
عُرضى: معسكر، ثكنة (بوشر). ولا أدري أن كانت هذه الكلمة ذات علاقة مع أعْراض (انظر عِرْض) أو أن لها علاقة بالكلمة التركية أوردي أو أوردوا التي أخذنا منها كلمة: horde التي معناها معسكر.
عَرَضِيّ: طارىء، مفاجيء (فوك، محيط المحيط) الخطيئة العرضية: خلاف الكبيرة أو المميتة، وهي من اصطلاح النصارى (محيط المحيط).
عَرَضِيَّة: حالة الشيء العارض أي الطارئ (بوشر). عرضية= كَر (انظر طرّ): قطعة قماش تتخذ عمامة، وقد فسرت ب (ما يلف على الرأس) (ميهرن ص31) وقد ترجمها بما معناه طاقية وقلنسوة، وهذا خطأ.
عَروض: موسيقى، فن الغناء (ألكالا، المقدمة 3: 417). انظر عن هذا البيت الذي ذكر في المقدمة ملاحظاتي في الجريدة الآسيوية 1869، 2: 213 - 214). وفي المعجم اللاتيني العربي): melodia بَمَساق وعَرُوض حلْو.
عروض البَلَد: أغنية شائعة في المدينة، أغنية هزلية خفيفة. (المقدمة 2: 195، 3: 417) عَرُوض: شطر، مصراع، نصف بيت. (المقدمة 3: 417) والجمع أعاريض: أجزاء البيت، تفاعيل. (المقري 2: 406).

(الجريدة الآسيوية (1869، 2: 186، 187، المعجم اللاتيني - العربي).

عَرُوضِيّ: موسيقار (الكالا).
عَرُوضات: الراغبون، التائقون المشتهون. (رولاند).
عارض: السحاب المعترض في الأفق. ويقال العارض جائز، أي يهطل المطر مدراراً (دلابورت ص39. وفي معجم فوك: عارض: شؤبوب، وابل مدرار، زخة مطر. وهمرة، مزنة.
عارض: شبح، يقال: عارض رجل: شبح رجل (عباد 2= 120، 3: 211 رقم 11).
عارض: اختلال الصحة، سقم. ففي بدرون (ص17): طبيب لا يخُشى معه داء ولا شيء ولا عارض من العوارض.
عارِض: مرض يصيب الكرم (ابن العوام 1: 586).
عارض: يطلق على اختلال العقل. ففي حياة ابن خلدون (ص198 ق): لقي أعلام المشرق يومئذ فلم يأخذ عنهم لأنه كان مختلطا بعارض عرض في عقله. وفي محيط المحيط: والعارض للمسّ من الجنّ من كلام المولّدين.
عارض، جنى استولى على شخص وجننه.
(ألف ليلة 2: 341، 342، 343، 4: 532) عوارضُ السِكك: ملتقى الطرق فيما يظهر.
(المقري 1: 358).

تَعْرِيض: تورية: تلميح، إلماع (بوشر). مَعْرِض: سوق الرقيق (لين) وفي معجم (فوك): مَعَرَض وجمعها معارض: ساحة انعقاد الأسواق الدورية وفي كتاب الخطيب (ص37 و): وانا أقدر أن أشتري لك من الغرض (المعرض) أخيرا (خَيراً) منه بعشرين ديناراً. وما قلته هو الصواب لأنا نجد في المقري (2: 546): من سوق العبيد. وهو يعني المكان المذكور.
مُعْرِض: بمعنى أمكنه من عُرضِه. (انظر ديوان الهذليين ص266 البيت العاشر)، وجمعها: مَعارِض؟ (معجم مسلم).
مِعْراض: يبدو لي أنها تعني المعنى المألوف الذي ذكره لين في العبارة التي نقلت في معجم مسلم.
مِعْراض: حاجز، عائق. ففي المقري (3: 118): قال السلطان وقد حضر تشييع ميت: كيف تتركون الخيلَ تصل إلى ضريح الشيخ هَلاً عرَّضتم هنالك (وأشار إلى حيث المعراض الآن) خشبة ففعلنا. فمعراض تعني إذا خشبة معرَّضة وهي قطعة من الخشب توضع بالعرض.

عرض

1 عَرُضَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. عِرَضٌ, [instead of which, as a simple subst., عَرْضٌ is generally used,] and عَرَاضَةٌ, It was, or became, broad, or wide; (S, O, * Msb, K, TA;) as also ↓ اعرض, (A, TA,) which occurs in this sense in two exs. following. (TA.) [And in like manner, ↓ استعرض It grew, or spread, wide; said of a tree; opposed to طَالَ; occurring in the TA in art. بهل.] It is said in a prov., القِرْفَةُ ↓ أَعْرَضَتِ (S, O, * TA [but in two copies of the S, I find the verb in this instance written اعرضتُ, and in the O اعرضتَ, and I do not know that the reading in the TA, which seems to be the common one, is found in any copy of the S,]) Suspicion became, or has become, wide; syn. اِتَّسَعَت: (TA:) used when it is said to a man, “ Whom dost thou suspect ? ” and he answers, “ The sons of such a one,” referring to the whole tribe. (S, O, TA.) [See Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 112, where another reading is mentioned, which, by what he says, is shown to be أَعْرَضْتَ القِرْفَةَ Thou hast made suspicion wide.] In another prov. it is said, ثَوْبُ المَلْبَسِ ↓ أَعْرَضَ (IAar, A, TA, and K in art. لبس,) and المِلْبَسِ and المُلْبِسِ (IAar, and K in art. لبس,) and المُلْتَبِسِ (TA in art. لبس) i. e. صَارَ ذَا عَرْضٍ, (A, TA,) and عَرُضَ, and اِتَّسَعَ; (Sh;) [meaning the same as the prov. before mentioned;] used with reference to him whose suspicion has become wide; (IAar, and TA in art. لبس;) i. e. with reference to him who suspects many persons (IAar, Az, and K in art. لبس,) of a theft; (IAar, Az, and TA in that art.;) or of saying a thing: (TS, and TA in that art.:) or when thou askest a person respecting a thing and he does not explain it to thee. (TA in that art.) [See, again, Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 100, where it is said that أَعْرَضَ ثَوْبُ المُلْبِسِ app. means The garment of the suspected appeared, or has appeared: but that another reading is عَرُضَ, meaning became, or has become, wide.]

A2: عَرَضَ, aor. ـِ (Fr, S, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA:) and عَرِضَ, (As, TS, K,) aor. ـَ (Fr, K,) or ـِ like حَسِبَ, aor. ـِ deviating from the general rule; (As, TS;) It (a thing) appeared, or became apparent, لَهُ to him; (S, O, Msb, K; [but in some copies of the K, instead of the explanation ظَهَرَ وَبَدَا, we find ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ وَبَدَا, which is a mistake;]) as also ↓ اعرض, (Fr, S, O, Msb, K,) which is a deviation from a general rule, being quasi pass. of عَرَضَهُ, which see below; (S, * O, * Msb, K;) [lit.] it showed its breadth, or width. (O, * TA.) You say, لَكَ الشَّىْءُ ↓ اعرض مِنْ بَعِيدٍ The thing appeared to thee from afar. (TA.) And عَرَضَتْ لَهُ الغُولُ, and عَرِضَتْ, (Az, S, O, K,) The ghool appeared to him. (K.) The Arabs say, of a thing, عَرَضَ and ↓ اعرض and ↓ تعرّض and ↓ اعترض, using these verbs as syn.; (Sh;) [app. as meaning It showed, presented, or offered, itself, (lit. its breadth, or width, or its side, see 5,) to a person: the first and last also often signify, and the others sometimes, he obtruded himself in an affair; interfered therein:] IKt disallows ↓ اعرض in the sense of اعترض, as not having been found by him: (TA:) [but] an instance of the former of these two verbs used in the sense of the latter of them occurs in the phrase لِلنَّاظِرِينَ ↓ إِذَا أُعْرَضَتْ [app. meaning When she shows, or presents, herself to the lookers], in a poem by one of the tribe of Teiyi. (Sh.) b2: عَرَضَ لَكَ الخَيْرُ, [in one place in the TA الخَبَرَ, and الخبر in a copy of the Msb,] inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA; [in one place in the TA عُرُوضٌ there referring to الخَبَرُ, which is app. a mistranscription;]) and ↓ اعرض; (S, O, K, TA;) Good [i. e. the doing of good] hath become within thy power, or practicable to thee, or easy to thee. (S, O, K, TA.) And لَكَ الظَّبْىُ ↓ اعرض The gazelle hath exposed to thee its side; (TA;) or hath put its side in thy power, (S, O, K, TA,) by turning it towards thee: (O, TA:) said to incite one to shoot it, or cast at it. (S, O.) Or لَكَ ↓ اعرض, said of an animal of the chase, or other thing, signifies It hath put in thy power, [or exposed to thee,] its breadth, or width: (A:) or لَهُ ↓ اعرض signifies it (a thing) became within his power, or practicable to him, or easy to him; lit., it showed its side [to him]. (Mgh.) [In the TA, I find أَعْرَضَ فِى الشَّىْءِ expl. as signifying He had the width of the thing in his power: but فى, here, seems to be a mistake for لَهُ.] A poet, also, says ↓ أَعْرِضِى addressing a woman; meaning أَمْكِنِى

[Empower thou; i. e. grant thou access]. (S.) b3: عَرَضَ لَهُ, aor. ـِ (As, S, K, TA;) and عَرِضَ, aor. ـَ (TA;) are also said of an event, (As, TA,) or of a disease, and the like, (S, K, TA,) such as disquietude of mind, and a state of distraction of the mind or attention; (TA;) [meaning It happened to him; it befell him; it occurred to him; was incident to him;] and also of doubt, and the like. (TA.) [So, too, is ↓ اعترض.] You also say, عَرَضَهُ عَارِضٌ مِنَ الحُمَّى وَنَحْوِهَا [An occurrence of fever, and the like, happened to him, or befell him]. (S.) And البَدَنَ ↓ اعترض [It befell the body] is said of [a disease, as, for instance,] the mange, or scab. (B, in TA in art. عر.) b4: عَرَضَ لَهُ, aor. ـِ (Msb, TA;) and عَرِضَ له, aor. ـَ (Msb;) He intervened as an obstacle to him, preventing him from attaining his desire, (Msb, TA, *) or from seeking to attain his desire, and from going his way; (TA;) as also له ↓ اعترض. (Msb.) Yousay also, عَرَضَ لَهُ أَشَدَّ العَرْضِ, and ↓ اعترض, He opposed himself to him (قَابَلَهُ بِنَفْسِهِ) with the most vehement opposition of himself. (TA.) See also 5, second sentence. One should not say, عرّضتُ لَهُ, with teshdeed, in the sense of اِعْتَرَضْتُ. (Msb.) You also say, عَرَضَ عَارِضٌ, meaning [An obstacle intervened, or prevented; lit.] an intervening thing intervened; a preventing thing prevented. (TA.) And سِرْتُ فَعَرَضَ لِى فِى الطَّرِيقِ عَارِضٌ مِنْ جَبَلٍ

وَنَحْوِهِ I journeyed, and there opposed itself to me, so as to prevent my going on, an obstacle consisting in a mountain, and the like; as also ↓ اعترض: whence the اِعْتِرَاضَات [or objections] of the lawyers; because they prevent one's laying hold upon the evidence. (Msb.) And عَرَضَ لَهُ الشَّىْءُ فِى الطَّرِيقِ The thing intervened as an obstacle to him in the way, preventing him from going on. (TA.) And عَرَضَ الشَّىْءُ The thing stood up and prevented; [or stood in the way, or presented itself as an obstacle; or opposed itself;] as also ↓ اعترض. (TA.) [And The thing lay, or extended, breadthwise, or across, or athwart; like اعترض, q. v.] And الشَّىْءُ دُونَ الشَّىْءِ ↓ اعترض The thing intervened as an obstacle in the way to the thing; syn. حَالَ. (S, O.) b5: مَا عَرَضْتُ لَهُ بِسُوْءٍ, aor. ـِ and ما عَرِضْتُ, aor. ـَ signify ما تَعَرَّضْتُ: see 5: or, as some say, I did not, or have not, become exposed to his reviling, or evilspeaking, by reviling, or speaking evil, of him. (Msb.) [See also عَرَضَ عِرْضَهُ, below.] b6: عَرَضَ لَهُ also signifies He went towards him; (TA in art. نحو;) and عَرَضَ عَرْضَهُ and عُرْضَهُ [the same, i. e.] نَحَا نَحْوَهُ; (K;) as also عرضه ↓ اعترض (TA.) b7: In the saying of El-Kumeyt, فَأَبْلِغْ يَزِيدَ إِنْ عَرَضْتَ وَمُنْذِرًا he means [And convey thou to Yezeed,] if thou pass by him, [and to Mundhir: or perhaps, if thou go to him: or if thou present thyself to him.] (S.) b8: عَرَضَ الفَرَسُ, (L, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (L, TA,) The horse went along inclining towards one side: (K, TA:) or ran inclining his breast and head: (L, TA:) and ran inclining his head and neck; (K; [in which only the inf. n. of the verb in this last sense is mentioned;]) the doing of which is approved in horses, but disapproved in camels. (TA.) [See also 3, and 5.] b9: عَرَضَ البَعِيرُ, (K,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (TA,) The camel ate of the أَعْرَاض, i. e. of the upper parts of the trees [or shrubs]. (K.) b10: عَرَضَتْ, said of a she-camel, A fracture, (S, O, K,) or some injurious accident, (S, O,) befell her; (S, O, K;) as also عَرِضَتْ; (O, K;) but the former is the more approved: (TA:) and عَرَضَ لَهَا a disease, or a fracture, befell her. (TA, from a trad.) Also, said of a sheep, or goat, (شاة,) It died by disease. (K.) and عَرِضَ الشَّآءُ The sheep, or goats, burst, or became rent, from abundance of herbage. (K.) and عَرَضَ, (IKtt,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (K,) He (an animal, IKtt, or a man, K, [but it is said in the TA that there is no reason for this restriction,]) died without disease. (IKtt, K.) b11: عَرَضَ بِسِلْعَتِهِ i. q. عَارَضَ بِهَا. (K.) See 3, in two places. [and under the same, see a similar phrase.] b12: عَرَضَ He (a man, S, O) came to العَرُوض, i. e. Mekkeh and El-Medeeneh, (S, O, K, TA,) and El-Yemen, (TA,) and what is around them. (S, O, K, TA.) A3: عَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (Msb,) He made the thing apparent; showed it; exhibited it; manifested it; exposed it to view; presented it; (S, O, Msb, K;) unfolded it; laid it open: and also he mentioned it: (Msb:) [lit. he showed its breadth, or width, or its side: and hence it also signifies he made the thing to stand as an obstacle, دُونَ شَىْءٍ in the way to, or of, a thing.] You say, عَرَضَ لَهُ الشَّىْءَ He made apparent, showed, exhibited, manifested, or exposed to view, to him the thing; (S, O, K;) unfolded it, or laid it open, to him. (S, TA.) And عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَ كَذَا (S, O, K *) He showed, propounded, or proposed, to him, such a thing, or such a case: (K, * TA:) [and he asked, or required, of him, with gentleness, the doing of such a thing; for]

العَرْضُ signifies طَلَبٌ بِلِينٍ, (Mughnee and K, voce أَلَا,) or طَلَبٌ بِلِينٍ وَتَأَدُّبٍ. (Mughnee voce لَوْلَا.) And عَرَضْتُ المَتَاعَ لِلْبَيْعِ [I showed, exposed, presented, or offered, the commodity for sale; or] I showed the commodity to those desirous of purchasing it. (Msb.) The phrase عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ المَتَاعَ [He showed, or offered, to him the commodity] is used because the person shows to the other the length and breadth of the thing (طُولَهُ وَعَرْضَهُ), or because he shows him one of its sides (عُرْضًا مِنْ أَعْرَاضِهِ). (Mgh.) [Hence,] it is said in a trad. of Hodheyfeh, تُعْرَضُ الفِتَنُ عَلَى القُلُوبِ عَرْضَ الحَصِيرِ, which means, accord. to some, that فِتَن [Temptations, &c.,] will be [displayed and] embellished to the hearts of men like [as] the ornamented and variegated garment called حصير [is displayed and embellished]: (B, TA in art. حصر:) or the meaning is, that they will be laid and spread upon the hearts like the حصير: (IAth, TA in the present art.:) and some say that by this last word is here meant a certain vein extending across upon the side of a beast, towards the belly. (TA in art. حصر.) [Hence also,] عَرْضٌ سَابِرِىٌّ [A slight exhibition: (see art. سبر:)] so in the proverbs by A'Obeyd, in the handwriting of Ibn-El-Jawáleekee: (TA:) or عَرْضُ سَابِرِىٍّ: (TA, and so in a copy of the S in this art.:) or عَرْضَ سَابِرِىٍّ. (O, TA, and so in a copy of the S in this art.) With this agrees in meaning the saying عَرَضَ عَلَىَّ سَوْمَ عَالَّةٍ [He offered to me in the manner of offering water to camels taking a second draught: see also arts. سوم and عل; and see Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 84]. (TA.) Yousay also, عَرَضْتُ الجَارِيَةَ عَلَى البَيْعِ [I showed, or displayed, or exposed, or offered, the girl for sale]: (S, O, TA:) and in like manner المَتَاعَ [the commodity]. (TA.) And عَرَضْتُ لَهُ ثَوْبًا مَكَانَ حَقِّهِ; (S, O;) and عَرَضْتُ لَهُ مِنْ حَقِّهِ ثَوْبًا, (S, O, K,) or مَتَاعًا, (TA,) this meaning, [as also the former phrase,] I gave to him a garment, or piece of cloth, [or a commodity,] in place of his due: (S, O, K:) and in like manner, عرضت بِهِ. (El-Umawee, TA.) And عَرَضْتُ البَعِيرَ عَلَى

الحَوْضِ, which is an instance of inversion, meaning عَرَضْتُ الحَوْضَ عَلَى البَعِيرِ [I showed the watering-trough to the camel]: (S, O, Msb:) [or it agrees in meaning with the phrase] عَرَضَ النَّاقَةَ عَلَى الحَوْضِ, and ↓ أَعْرَضَهَا, [as rendered] He offered to the she-camel to drink [at the wateringtrough]. (L, TA.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى السَّيْفِ [lit. He exposed them to the sword; (see also 2;) meaning] he slew them (S, A, O, Msb, K) with the sword. (Msb.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى السَّوْطِ He beat them with the whip; he flogged them. (K, * TA.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى النَّارِ He burned them. (A, TA.) And عَرَضْتُ العَسَلَ عَلَى النَّارِ I cooked the honey [upon the fire] to separate it from the wax. (Msb.) [And عَرَضَ نَفْسَهُ لِلْهَلَاكِ He exposed himself to destruction.] b2: عَرْضٌ also signifies The bringing a man before a judge, and accusing him. (IAar, in TA, art. عقب.) [and The presenting, or addressing, a petition, &c., with عَلَى or لِ before the word signifying the person to whom it is presented or addressed.] b3: One says also, مَا يَعْرِضُكَ لِفُلَانٍ, (S, [so in two copies,] and O,) or مَا يَعْرُضَكَ, (L, TA,) with fet-h to the ى and damm to the ر, (L,) the verb being coordinate to نَصَرَ: (TA:) [app. meaning What causeth thee to present thyself to such a one?]: Yaakoob disallows one's saying ↓ مَا يُعَرِّضُكَ لِفُلَانٍ, with teshdeed. (S, O, TA.) [But the latter of these two verbs has a signification nearly allied to that which is here assigned to the former, and exactly agreeing with one mentioned before. See 2.] b4: عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ, (S, Msb,) and عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ عَرْضَ العَيْنِ, (S, O,) or عَرْضَ عَيْنٍ, (A, K, B, except that in the A and B we find الجَيْشَ instead of الجند,) aor. ـِ (Msb,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (Yoo, S,) He made the army, or body of soldiers, to pass by him, and examined their state, (S, O, K,) what it was: (S, O:) [i. e. he reviewed them:] or he made them to pass before him in review, that he might know who was absent and who was present: (A, B:) or he caused them to come forth, and examined them, that he might know them: (Msb:) and you say also, ↓ اعترضهُمْ, (S, O, K,) meaning [the same, or] he made them to pass by him, or before him, and examined them, one by one, (K, TA,) to see who were absent from those who were present. (TA.) You say also, ↓ اعترض المَتَاعَ وَنَحْوَهُ and عَلَى عَيْنِهِ ↓ اعترضهُ [He examined the commodity, and the like thereof, having it displayed before his eye]. (Th.) [See also عَرْضٌ.]

(Msb.) A4: عَرَضَ عِرْضَهُ, aor. ـِ (TA;) and ↓ اعترضهُ; (A, TA;) [perhaps originally signified He examined his grounds of pretension to respect, or the like: and then became used to express a frequent consequence of doing so; i. e.] he spoke evil of him; reviled him; detracted from his reputation: (A, TA:) or he corresponded to him, or equalled him, in grounds of pretension to respect: (TA:) [the former seems to be the more probable of the two meanings; for it is said that] فُلَانًا ↓ اعترض signifies he spoke evil of such a one; reviled him; detracted from his reputation; (Lth, S, O, K;) and annoyed him. (Lth, TA.) A5: عَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (TA,) He hit the side (عُرْض) of the thing. (K.) A6: عَرَضَ العُودَ عَلَى

الإِنَآءِ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and السَّيْفَ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـُ and عَرِضَ, (S, O, Msb, K,) in both phrases, (O, K,) [J says, in the S, app. referring, not, as SM thinks, to the latter of the two phrases, but to the meaning, “this, only, with damm,”] He put the stick breadthwise, across, athwart, or crosswise, (مَعْرُوضًا, TA, or بِالعَرْضِ, Msb, TA, both meaning the same, TA,) upon the vessel, (Msb, TA,) [and so the sword upon his thigh: and ↓ عرّضهُ signifies the same.] b2: عَرَضَ الرُّمْحَ, aor. ـِ [and probably عَرُضَ also,] inf. n. عَرْضٌ; and ↓ عرّضهُ, inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ; (TA:) He turned, or placed, the spear sideways; contr. of سَدَّدَهُ.

(TA.) b4: The saying of Aboo-Kebeer El-Hudhalee, cited, but not expl., by Th, فَعَرَضْتُهُ فِى سَاقِ أَسْمَنِهَا is thought by ISd to mean And I made its (the sword's) breadth to become concealed in the thigh of the fattest of them. (TA.) A7: عَرَضَهُ He fed him: (Fr, TA:) [or he offered, or presented, to him food: for] عُرِضُوا signifies They were fed: and they had food offered, or presented, to them. (L, TA.)

meaning that he is tall of stature, and one who entertains many guests: (Mgh:) [but many hold these two words to be identical in meaning.] You say, عَرَّضْتُ لِفُلَانٍ and بِفُلَانٍ, i. e. I said something [in the manner explained above], meaning such a one. (S, Msb.) [See also an ex. voce كَلَّآءٌ.] 'Omar defined [or rather explained]

التَّعْرِيضُ بِالفَاحِشَةِ [The making an allusion to that which is foul, or obscene] by the instance of a man saying to another “ My father is not an adulterer, nor is my mother an adulteress. ” (O, TA.) Or, accord. to the early authorities, عرّض signifies He used a phrase susceptible of different meanings, or an equivocal phrase, by which the hearer understood a meaning different from that which he (the speaker) intended: or, accord. to the later authorities, as Et-Teftezánee, he mentioned a thing by a proper or tropical or metonymical expression, to signify some other thing, which he did not mention; as when one says, “I heard him whom thou hatest praying for thee, and making good mention of thee; ” meaning in his praying for the Muslims in general. (El-Munáwee, in explaining the trad. إِنَّ فِى المَعَارِيضِ الخ, which see below, voce مِعْرَاضٌ.) تعريض with respect to the demanding of a woman in marriage in [the period of] her عِدَّة, [during which she may not contract a new marriage,] is the using language which resembles a demand of her in marriage, but does not plainly express it; as the saying to her “ Verily thou art beautiful,” or “ Verily there is a desire for thee,” or “ Verily women are of the things that I need: ” and تعريض is sometimes made by the quoting of proverbs, and by the introducing of enigmas in one's speech. (TA.) [When followed by عَلَى, it signifies The making an indirect objection against a person or saying &c.] b4: Also عرّض, (S, O,) inf. n. as above, (K,) He wrote indistinctly; (S, O, K;) not making the letters distinct, nor the handwriting rightly formed or disposed. (TA.) A2: تَعْرِيضٌ also sigsifies The making a thing to be exposed [or liable] to another thing. (K, [It is there expl., with the article ال prefixed to it, by the words أَنْ يَجْعَلَ لِلشَّىْءِ ↓ الشَّىْءَ عَرْضًا, or ↓ عَرَضًا, accord. to different copies; the latter (which see, last sentence but one,) app. the right reading; meaning مَعْرُوضًا, whichever be the right; for an inf. n. may be used in the sense of a pass. part. n.; and many a word of the measure فَعَلٌ is used in that sense, as, for instance, خَبَطٌ and نَفَضٌ and هَدَمٌ. That I have rightly rendered the above-mentioned explanation in the K is indicated by what here immediately follows.]) Hence the trad. مَا عَظُمَتْ نِعْمَةُ اللّٰهِ عَلَى عَبْدٍ إِلَّا عَظُمَتْ مَؤُونَةُ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْتَمِلْ تِلْكَ المَؤُونَةَ فَقَدْ عَرَّضَ تِلْكَ النِّعْمَةَ لِلزَّوَالِ [The blessing of God upon a servant, or man, hath not become great but the burden of other men upon him hath become great; and he who doth not take upon himself that burden causeth that blessing to be exposed to cessation]. (O, TA.) You also say, هُوَ لَهُ ↓ عَرَّضْتُ فُلَانًا لِكَذَا فَتَعَرَّضَ [I caused such a one to expose himself, or I exposed him, to such a thing, and he exposed himself, or became exposed, to it], (S, O, *) i. e. ↓ جَعَلْتُهُ عَرَضًا لِكَذَا. (O.) See also 1, last quarter. b2: Also The giving a thing in exchange for, as an equivalent for, or in the place of, another thing. (TA.) b3: And The act of bartering, or selling, a commodity for a like commodity. (K, * TA.) See 3, in two places. b4: And The giving what is termed an عُرَاضَة: (TA:) and the feeding with what is so termed: (K:) or the giving food of what is so termed. (S.) [See also 1, near the end.] It is said in a trad., respecting a company of travelling merchants making presents to Mohammad and Aboo-Bekr, عَرَّضُوهُمَا ثِيَابًا بِيضًا They gave to both of them white garments, or pieces of cloth. (L.) And you say, عَرَّضُوهُمْ مَحْضًا They gave them to drink [unmixed] milk. (TA.) And عَرِّضُونَا Give ye to us food of your عُرَاضَة; your wheat, or corn, which ye have brought. (S, TA.) b5: عرّض المَاشِيَةَ, inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ, He made the cattle to have such pasturage as rendered them in no need of being fed with fodder. (TA.) A3: عرّض, (IAar, O,) inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ (K,) also signifies He became possessed of عَارِضَة [i. e. courage, or courage and energy], (IAar, O, K,) and strength, or power, (IAar, O,) and a faculty of speech, (IAar, O, K,) or, as in the Tekmileh, and power of speech. (TA.) A4: And He kept continually to the eating of عِرْضَان, (O, * K, TA, [in the O عِرَاض,]) pl. of عَرِيضٌ. (TA.) A5: See also 4, last sentence.3 عَاْرَضَ [عَارضهُ has two contr. significations, which are unequivocally expressed by saying عارضهُ بِالخِلَافِ and عارضهُ بِالوِفَاقِ. (See عَانَدَهُ.) Thus one says,] عارضهُ, (Msb,) inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, (TA,) He opposed him [being opposed by him]. (Kull p. 342.) b2: And [He vied, competed, or contended for superiority, with him; emulated, rivalled, or imitated, him;] he did like as he (the latter) did. (Msb, TA.) You say also, عَارَضْتُهُ بِمِثْلِ مَا صَنَعَ, (S, O,) or بِمِثْلِ صَنِيعِهِ, (K,) I did to him like as he did: (S, O, K:) whence المُعَارَضَة [in trafficking, as will be seen below]: as though the breadth (عَرْض) of the action of the one were like the breadth of the action of the other. (O, K.) And عارضهُ بِمَا صَنَعَهُ He requited him for that which he did. (L.) b3: [Hence] مُعَارَضَةٌ also signifies The selling a commodity for another commodity; exchanging it for another; as also عَرْضٌ: (TA:) and [in like manner] ↓ تَعْرِيضٌ, the act of bartering, or selling a commodity for a like commodity.

You say, عارض بِسِلْعَتِهِ; and بِهَا ↓ عَرَضَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA;) He exchanged his commodity; giving one commodity and taking another; (TA:) and مَتَاعَهُ ↓ عرّض he sold his commodity for another commodity. (TK.) Also عارضهُ بِالبَيْعِ (M and L in art. بد) and بَاعَهُ مُعَارَضَةً (S and K in that art.) [He bartered, or exchanged commodities, with him]. And ↓ أَخَذْتُ هٰذِهِ السِّلْعَةَ عَرْضًا I took this commodity giving another in exchange for it. (TA.) And when persons demand blood of other persons, and they [the latter] do not retaliate for them, they [the latter] say, نَحْنُ نَعْرِضُ مِنْهُ [We will give a compensation for it]: and they [the former] accept (اعترضوا) the bloodwit. (L.) b4: You say also, عَارَضْتُهُ فِى البَيْعِ فَعَرَضْتُهُ [I vied with him in endeavouring to defraud, or deceive, in selling, or buying,] and I defrauded, or deceived, him therein. (K, * TA.) And عارضهُ بِالمَجْدِ [He vied, or competed, or contended, with him, or emulated him, or rivalled him, in glory, or honour, &c.]: (L and K in art. مجد:) and in like manner عارضهُ بِالفَخْرِ. (K in art. فخر.) See 6. b5: عارضهُ, (O, K,) or عارضهُ فِى المَسِيرِ (S,) or فى السَّيْرِ, (A,) He went along over against him; or on the opposite side to him; (S, A, O, K;) in a corresponding manner; (TA;) [each taking the side opposite to the other.] b6: [Hence. عارضهُ as signifying It (a tract &c.) lay over against him. Also as syn. with اعرض عَنْهُ.] See 4. b7: [Hence also,] عارض, (S, O, K,) inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, (TA,) He took to one side (S, O, K *) of the way, or ways, (accord. to different copies of the K,) while another took to another way, so that they both met.

(TA.) b8: عارض الجِنَازَةَ He came to the bier, or the bier conveying the corpse, intermediately (مُعْتَرِضًا), in a part of the way, not following it from the abode of the deceased: (O, K, TA:) said of Mohammad, in a trad. respecting the funeral of Aboo-Tálib. (O, TA.) b9: عارض المَرْأَةَ, inf. n. عِرَاضٌ and مُعَارَضَةٌ, He came in to the woman [indirectly, or] unlawfully; (Sgh, K, TA;) i. e. without marriage and without possession [of her as his slave].

(A, TA.) b12: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ مُعَارَضَةً He looked at him, or towards him, sideways, or obliquely. (A, TA.) You say also, نَظَرَ عَنْ مُعَارَضَةٍ [He looked sideways, or obliquely]. (TA in art. خزر.) and you say of a she-camel, تَمْشِى مُعَارَضَةً لِلنَّشَاطِ [She goes obliquely by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]. (S, K. * [See again 5, latter half.]) b13: عارض الشَّىْءَ بِالشَّىْءِ He compared the thing with the thing. (Msb.)

A2: ضَرَبَ النَّاقَةَ عِرّاضًا [He covered the she-camel agreeably with her desire] is said when the stallion is offered to her, and if she desire he covers her, but otherwise he does not: (S, O, TA:) in the K it is said, if he desire her; which is wrong: (TA:) this is because of her generous quality. (S, O, TA.) b2: And لَقِحَتْ عِرَاضًا She (a camel) conceived by a stallion, she not being of the camels among which he was sent. (AO, TA.) b3: See also 8, near the end.4 اعرض: see 1, first sentence; and in thirteen places after that, as far as the break after the words “ grant thou access. ” b2: Also He went wide (S, O, Msb, K) and long; (S, O, K;) فِى الشَّىْءِ [in the thing]; (Msb;) and فِى المَكَارِمِ (tropical:) [in generous actions]. (TA.) b3: اعرض عَنْهُ, (S, * O, * Msb, K,) inf. n. إِعْرَاضٌ, (S, O,) He turned away from, avoided, shunned, and left, it; (S, O, Msb, K;) lit. he took a side (عُرْضًا i. e. جَانِبًا) other than the side in which it was: (Msb:) or he turned his back upon it: (IAth, TA:) and [in like manner]

↓ عارضهُ he turned aside, or away, from him; avoided him; shunned him; (S, O, K;) lit. he became aside with respect to him. (TA.) A2: اعرضهُ: see 2, first signification. b2: أَعْرَضَتْ بِوُلْدِهَا She (a woman) brought forth her children broad [in make]; expl. by the words وَلَدَتْهُمْ عِرَاضًا; (S, O, K;) [not meaning عَنْ عِرَاضٍ, (see 3,) as Freytag, deviating from Golius, has understood it; unless SM be in error; for he says that] the last word in this explanation is pl. of عَرِيضٌ. (TA.) b3: اعرض المَسْأَلَةَ He put, or expressed, the question broadly; (Mgh;) widely; (Mgh, TA;) largely. (TA.) b4: اعرض النَّاقَةَ عَلَى الحَوْضِ: see عَرَضَ, latter half. b5: اعرض العِرْضَانَ He put for sale the عرضان [pl. of عَرِيضٌ, q. v.]. (O.) b6: And (O) He castrated the عرضان. (S, IKtt, O.) b7: [And app. He circumcized a boy: or so ↓ عرّض: see مُعَرِّضٌ.]5 تعرّض: see عَرَضَ, near the beginning, where these two verbs, and اعرض and اعترض, are said to be used as syn.; [app. as meaning It showed, presented, or offered, itself, to a person; lit. it showed, or presented, its breadth, or width; or, as تعرّض is expl. in the EM p. 19, it showed its عُرْض, i. e. side: this, or it, or he, presented, or offered, or exposed, its, or his, side, seems to be the primary signification of تعرّض, and of اعترض, as well as of عَرَضَ; and is of frequent occurrence: and all (as mentioned voce عَرَضَ) signify also he obtruded himself in an affair; interfered therein.] b2: [Hence,] تعرّض لَهُ He opposed himself to him; he offered opposition to him; or he attacked him; said of a man, and of a beast of prey, or noxious reptile, and the like; as also ↓ عَرَضَ and ↓ اعترض: this signification also is of frequent occurrence. (The lexicons passim.) b3: [Hence also,] He addressed, or applied, or directed, himself, or his regard, or attention, or mind, to him, or it; [as though he set himself over against the object to which the verb relates;] syn. تَصَدَّى. (Lth, Lh, S, O, Msb, K.) So in the saying, تعرّض لِمَعْرُوفِهِمْ and مَعْرُوفَهُمْ [He addressed himself, &c., presented himself, betook himself, advanced, came forward, or went forward, or attempted, to obtain their favour, or bounty]: and تعرّض لِلْمَعْرُوفِ and المَعْرُوفَ [He addressed himself, &c., to obtain favour, or bounty; and] he sought, or demanded, it: (Az, Msb:) and [so] للمعروف ↓ اعترض (Msb in art. عر. [See also اعترض لَهُ.]) So too in the saying, تَعَرَّضُوا لِنَفَحَاتِ رَحْمَةِ اللّٰهِ [Address ye yourselves, &c., to become objects of the effusions of the mercy of God]; (O, K, TA;) occurring in a trad. (TA.) And hence the saying, تعرّض فِى شَهَادَتِهِ لِكَذَا He addressed himself, &c., (تصدّى,) in his testimony, to the mention of such a thing. (Msb.) It is likewise syn. with تصدّى in the saying, تعرّض لِى فُلَانٌ بِمَكْرُوهٍ [Such a one addressed himself, &c., or attempted, to do me an abominable, or evil, action; or opposed himself to me with an abominable, or evil, action]. (Lth.) [In like manner also you say,] يَتَعَرَّضُ لِلنَّاسِ بِالشَّرِّ [He addresses himself, &c., to do to men evil; or he opposes himself to men with evil or mischief]. (S, K.) And مَا تَعَرَّضْتُ لَهُ بِسُوْءٍ [I did not address myself, or have not addressed myself, &c., to do to him evil]: and ↓ مَا عَرَضْتُ and ↓ مَا عَرِضْتُ are said to signify the same. (Msb.) [See 1.] Yousay also, تَعَرَّضْتُ أَسْأَلُهُمْ [I addressed myself, &c., to ask them]. (S, O. *) And جَآءَ فُلَانٌ يَتَعَرَّضُ, and يَتَضَرَّعُ, Such a one came asking, or petitioning, to another, for a thing that he wanted. (Fr, in S, art.ضرع.) b4: And تعرّض الرِّفَاقَ He asked the companies of travellers for what are termed عُرَاضَات [pl. of عُرَاضَةٌ, q. v.]. (TA.) b5: تعرّض لِكَذَا [also signifies He exposed himself, or became exposed, to such a thing]. (S.) See 2, latter portion. b6: Also تعرّض, [from عُرْضٌ,] He, or it, turned aside; turned from the right course or direction; syn. تَعَوَّجَ; (S, K, TA;) and زَاغَ: (TA:) his, or its, course, or march, was, or became, indirect, or oblique. (L, TA.) You say, تعرّض الجَمَلُ فِى الجَبَلِ The camel went to the right and left, [in, or upon, the mountain,] on account of the difficulty of the road, or way. (S, O, K.) And تَعَرَّضَتِ الإِبِلُ المَدَارِجَ The camels went along the routes (فِى المَدَارِجِ) [المَدَارِجَ being in the accus. case because فى is understood, not that the verb is trans.] to the right and left; (A;) i. e., alternately to the right and left. (T in art. ثنى.) [See a verse cited voce تَصَدَّفَ, and its explanation.] Dhu-l-Bijádeyn, being guide to the Apostle, addressing his she-camel, said, تَعَرَّضِى مَدَارِجًا وَسُومِى

تَعَرُّضَ الجَوْزَآءِ لِلنُّجُومِ هٰذَا أَبُو القَاسِمِ فَاسْتَقِيمِى (S, O) Go thou along routes to the right and left, avoiding the rugged acclivities, [and continue thy course, or as expl. in the TA, art. سوم, pass along quickly,] (TA,) like as الجوزاء [Orion] passes along in the sky obliquely, or indirectly, in the disposition of its stars [with respect to the other stars: (see 3, towards the end:) this is Abu-l- Kásim; therefore go thou right]. (IAth, TA.) b7: تعرّض الفَرَسُ فِى رَسَنِهِ i. q. اعترض, q. v. (TA.) You say also, of a camel, فِى سَيْرِهِ ↓ يَعْتَرِضُ [He inclines towards one side, in his march, or course; or goes obliquely, or inclining towards one side]. (K: and so in one copy of the S: in another copy of the S, يَتَعَرَّضُ. [See also 3, last quarter.]) b8: تعرّض also signifies It (a thing) became infected, vitiated, or corrupted; and in this sense it is said of love: (TA:) [as though it turned from the right course, or direction; a signification mentioned before; and thus it is expl. in the S, as occurring in the phrase تعرّض وَصْلُهُ, in the Mo'allakah of Lebeed; or, thus used, it signifies] it (a person's attachment to another) became altered, so as to cease. (EM p. 149.) 6 تعارضا They opposed each other. (Ibn-Maaroof, in Golius. [The verb is very often used in this sense.]) b2: They fought, or combated, each other. (MA.) b3: They did each like as the other did; they imitated each other: they vied, competed, or contended, each with the other; they emulated, or rivalled, each other: (TA in art. برى:) syn. تَبَارَيَا. (K in that art.) 8 اعترض: see عَرَضَ, near the beginning, where these two verbs and اعرض and تعرّض, are said to be used as syn., app. in the senses expl. there and in the beginning of 5. b2: [Hence,] اعترض عَلَيْهِ He opposed, resisted, or withstood, him, or it; syn. اِمْتَنَعَ. (MA.) [See 1 in art. شنف, in two places.] b3: See also 5, second sentence. b4: And see from عَرَضَ لَهُ as signifying “ it happened to him ” as far as the end of the sentence explaining اعترض الشَّىْءُ دُونَ الشَّىْءِ.

اعترض signifies [It lay, or extended, breadthwise, across, transversely, athwart, sideways, obliquely, or horizontally: or so as to present an obstacle: or so intervened in any manner; as shown in the part last referred to, above: or rather it has both of these meanings; and in the former sense it is used, in the TA, art. حر, in describing the direction of an asterism, opposed to اِنْتَصَبَ: or, in other words,] it (a thing, S) became, (K,) or became an obstacle, (صَارَ عَارِضًا, S, O,) like a piece of wood lying across, or athwart, or obliquely, (مُعْتَرِضَةً,) in a channel of running water, (S, O, K,) or a road, (O, L,) and the like, preventing persons from passing along it. (L.) It is also said [of a collection of clouds appearing, or presenting itself, or extending sideways, or stretching along in the horizon like a mountain; see عَارِضٌ: and] of a building, or other thing, such as a trunk of a palm-tree, or a mountain, lying in a road: and as this prevents the passengers from passing along the road, it is used as signifying He, or it, prevented, or hindered: (O, K:) it is quasi-pass. of عَرَضَهُ. (K, * TA.) [And hence,] اُعْتُرِضَ عَنِ امْرَأَتِهِ, (O, TA,) not اِعْتَرَضَ, as the K seems to indicate, (TA,) He was prevented from going in to his wife, by an obstacle that befell him, arising from the jinn, or genii, or from disease: (O, K, TA:) occurring in a trad. (TA.) b5: [Hence,] اِعْتِرَاضٌ which is forbidden in a trad. [respecting horseracing] signifies A man's coming intermediately with his horse, in a part of the course, and so entering among the [other] horses. (O, L, K.) [See also عَارَضَ الجِنَازَةَ.] b6: [And hence,] اعترض الشَّهْرَ He commenced [the observances of] the month not from the beginning thereof. (S, O, K.) b7: [اعترضت الجُمْلَةُ The clause intervened parenthetically. b8: اعترض عَلَيْهِ He interposed in an argument, or the like, objecting against him something, by way of confutation]. And اعترض عَلَى

أَحَدٍ مِنْ قَوْلٍ أَوْفِعْلٍ He attributed to any one an error in respect of a saying or an action. (Har p. 687.) b9: اعترض الفَرَسُ فِى رَسَنِهِ The horse was perverse, untoward, or intractable, [in his halter,] to his leader; (S, A, O, K;) as also ↓ تعرّض. (TA. [See مُعْتَرِضٌ.]) And اِعْتَرِاضٌ in a man is The appearing and engaging in what is vain, or false, and refusing to obey the truth. (TA.) b10: اعترضهُ He faced him, and advanced towards him: (Har p. 420) and اعترض عَرْضَهُ and عُرْضَهُ [has nearly, if not exactly, the same signification]: see عَرَضَ. And اعتراض also signifies The coming in upon any one: or entering upon an affair. (Har p. 687.) b11: [اعترض لَهُ often means He presented himself, or advanced, or came forward, to him: and he addressed or betook himself, or advanced, or went forward, to it; namely, an action; like تعرّض له: see its syns. اِنْبَرَى and تَبَرَّى.] b12: See also 5, second sentence. b13: اعترض لَهُ بِسَهْمٍ He advanced towards him with an arrow, and shot at him, and slew him. (S, O, K.) b14: اعترض لِلْمَعْرُوفِ: see 5. b15: يَعْتَرِضُ فِى سَيْرِهِ: see 5, near the end.

A2: اعترض He rode while reviewing the army, or body of soldiers, or making them to pass by him and examining their state, (S, O, K,) عَلَى الدَّابَّةِ upon the beast. (S, O.) b2: اعترض الجُنْدُ The army, or body of soldiers, was reviewed: (Mgh, L:) quasi-pass. of عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ [which signifies the same as the phrase next following]. (O, L, TA.) b3: اعترض الجُنْدَ: and المَتَاعَ وَنَحْوَهُ and اعترضهُ عَلَى عَيْنِهِ: see عَرَضَ, last quarter.

A3: اِعترض عِرْضَهُ: and اعترض فُلَانًا: see عَرَضَ, last quarter.

A4: اعترض البَعِيرَ He rode the camel while refractory, or untractable, (S, O, K,) as yet. (K.) And اعترض العَرُوضَ He took the untrained she-camel in her untrained state. (TA. [In the original of this explanation is a mistranscription, which I have rectified in the translation; اخذعا for أَخَذَهَا.]) b2: [Hence, app.,] اعترض فُلَانٌ الشَّىْءَ Such a one undertook the thing, or constrained himself to do it, it being difficult, or troublesome, or inconvenient. (IAth.) A5: اعترض الشَّوْكَ (K, TA.) He ate the thorns: and الشَّوْكَ ↓ عَرَضَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. عَرَضَ, he took and ate of the thorns: both said of a sheep or goat, or rather of a camel: (TA:) and [in like manner] one says of a camel, الشَّجَرَ ذَا الشَّوْكِ بِفِيهِ ↓ عَارَضَ: and the camel that does so is said to be ذُو عِرَاضٍ. (S, O, K.) A6: See also 10, in five places.

A7: اعترض مِنْهُ [He accepted an equivalent, or a substitute, or compensation, for it]. You say, كَانَ عَلَى فُلَانٍ نَقْدٌ فَأَعْسَرْتُهُ فَاعْتَرَضْتُ مِنْهُ [Such a one owed a debt of money, and I demanded it of him when it was difficult for him to pay it, and I accepted an equivalent, &c., for it]: and اعترضوا مِنْهُ, referring to blood, when retaliation has been refused, means they accepted [قَبِلُوا, for which اقبلوا has been substituted by the copyists in the L and TA,] the bloodwit [as a compensation for it]. (L.) 10 استعرض: see عَرُضَ; second sentence. b2: استعرضت النَّاقَةُ بِاللَّحْمِ is like the phrase قُذِفَتْ بِاللَّحْمِ, (O, K, TA,) meaning The she-camel became fat and plump. (TA.) A2: استعرضهُ He asked him to show, or exhibit, to him what he had. (S, TA.) b2: استعرض الجَارِيَةَ He asked to show, or display, to him the girl on the occasion of sale. (Mtr, in Har p. 557.) A3: استعرضها He came to her from the direction of her side. (TA.) b2: [Hence, استعرضهُ also signifies, and so ↓ اعترضهُ, He betook himself to him or it, or he took him or it, or he acted with respect to him or it, without any direct aim, at random, or indiscriminately: and hence the phrase here following.] استعرض النَّاسُ الخَوَارِجَ and ↓ اِعْتَرَضُوهُمْ The people went forth against the Khárijees not caring whom they slew. (Mgh.) And مَنْ لَقُوا ↓ لَا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ يَعْتَرِضُوا فَيَقْتُلُوا [There will be no harm to them] in their taking without distinguishing who and whence he is him whom they find, and slaying. (Mgh.) and يَسْتَعْرِضُ الخَارِجِىُّ النَّاسَ The Khárijee slays men (S, O, K, * TA) in any possible manner, and destroys whomsoever he can, (TA,) without inquiring respecting the condition of any one, (S, * O, K, TA,) Muslim or other, (S, O, TA,) and without caring whom he slays. (TA.) And وَاشْتَرِهِ مِمَّنْ ↓ اِعْتَرِضْهُ وَجَدْتَهُ وَلَا تَسْأَلْ عَمَّنْ عَمِلَهُ [Take thou it at random, or indiscriminately, and buy it of him whom thou findest, and ask not respecting him who made it]. (S, K.) And اِسْتَعْرَضَ يُعْطِى مَنْ أَقْبَلَ وَمَنْ

أَدْبَرَ [He acted indiscriminately, giving to him who advanced and to him who retired]. (S.) And اِسْتَعْرِضِ العَرَبَ Ask thou whom thou wilt of the Arabs respecting such and such things. (S.) You say also, of land (أَرْض) in which is herbage, يَسْتَعْرِضُهَا المَالُ and ↓ يَعْتَرِضُهَا [The camels, or the like,] depasture it [app. at random] when traversing it. (K.) عَرْضٌ Breadth; width; contr. of طُولٌ; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) and i. q. سَعَةٌ; (K;) the mutual distance of the edges or sides of a thing: (Msb:) primarily relating to corporeal things, but afterwards used in relation to other things: [see عَرِيضٌ:] (TA:) this word as signifying the contr. of طول is the common source of derivation of the other words of this art., not withstanding their multitude: (O:) pl. [of pauc.] أَعْرَاضٌ (IAar, TA) and of mult. عُرُوضٌ and عِرَاضٌ. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [lvii. 21, وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا كَعَرْضِ السَّمَآءِ والأَرْضِ And a paradise whereof the breadth, or width, is like the breadth, or width, of the heaven and the earth: and in iii. 127,] عَرْضُهَا السَّمٰوَاتُ والأَرْضُ [the breadth, or width, whereof is as the heavens and the earth]: and Ibn-'Arafeh observes that when the عَرْض is described as being much, it indicates that the طُول is much, for the latter is more than the former. (O, TA.) You say also, عَرَضَ عَرْضَهُ, and ↓ عُرْضَهُ, He went towards him: [lit. towards his breadth, and his side.] (K.) And ذَهَبَ عَرْضًا وَطُولًا [He went wide and long]; (S, Msb, * K;) فِى الشَّىْءِ [in the thing]; (Msb;) and فِى المَكَارِمِ (tropical:) [in generous actions]. (TA.)

And عَرَضَ عُرْضَهَ, He went towards him: [lit. towards his side.] (K.) See also عَرْضٌ, near the beginning. And مِنَ الطَّرِيقِ ↓ أَخَذَ فِى عَرُوضٍ (S, * K) He took to one side of the way. (S, * TA.) And سِوَى هٰذِهِ ↓ خُذْ فِى عَرُوضٍ Take thou to a side other than this. (A.) And أَخَذَ مَا تُعْجِبُنِى ↓ فُلَانٌ فِى عَرُوضٍ (S, A) Such a one took to a way and side not pleasing to me. (S.) [عَرُوضٌ, it will be observed, is fem.] And سِرْتُ

↓ فِى عِرَاضِهِ I went along over against him. (A.) And القَوْمِ ↓ سِرْنَا فِى عِرَاضِ We went along not facing the people, or company of men, but coming to them from their side. (TA.) And Aboo-Dhueyb says, أَمِنْكِ بَرْقٌ أَبِيتُ اللَّيْلَ أَرْقُبُهُ الشَّامِ مِصْبَاحُ ↓ كَأَنَّهُ فِى عِرَاضِ (S, * TA,) i. e. [Is there lightning proceeding from thee, which I pass the night watching, as though it were a lamp] in the side, or region, of Syria? (S.) b2: See also عَرْضٌ, as signifying the “ lowest part, or base, of a mountain; ” and the “ side thereof. ” [And see شَفَقٌ, last sentence but one.]

b3: The middle, or midst, of a river or rivulet or the like, (O, K,) and of the sea, (K,) and of men or people, and of a story or tradition; and ↓ عَرْضٌ signifies the same, of men or people, &c.: (TA:) and the former, the main part of men or people; as also ↓ the latter; and of a story or tradition; (K;) as also ↓ عِرَاضٌ, (TA, and so in some copies of the K,) and ↓ عُرَاضٌ. (TA, and so in some copies of the K.) You say, رَأَيْتُهُ فِى عُرْضِ النَّاسِ I saw him among the people: (S, O:) and some of the Arabs say, النَّاسِ ↓ رَأَيْتُهُ فِى عَرْضِ, meaning فِى عُرْضٍ; (Yoo, S, O, TA;) or meaning I saw him in the midst of the people; (TA;) or, as also النَّاسِ ↓ فِى عُرُضِ, in the middle portions of the people; or, as some say, in the surrounding portions of the people. (Msb.) And فُلَانٌ مِنْ عُرْضِ النَّاسِ Such a one is of the common people, or vulgar. (S, K. *) b4: كُلِ الجُبْنَ عُرْضًا [Eat thou cheese indiscriminately; or] take thou cheese at random, or indiscriminately, and buy it of him whom thou findest, not asking respecting him who made it, (As, S, O, K,) whether it be of the making of the people of the Scriptures, or of the making of the Magians. (As, S, O.) A2: نَاقَةٌ عُرْضُ أَسْفَارٍ: and عُرْضُ هٰذَا البَعِيرِ السَّفَرُ وَالحَجَرُ: see عُرْضَةٌ, last two sentences but one.

A3: أَعْرَاضُ الــكَلَامِ: see مِعْرَاضٌ. [But whether اعراض in this phrase be pl. of عُرْضٌ, or whether it have any sing., I know not.] b2: See also عُرُضٌ.

عِرْضٌ: see عُرْضٌ, first signification. b2: Also The side of a valley, and of a بَلَد [i. e. country or the like, or town or the like]: (K: [in the CK, بلد is in the nom. case, which I think a mistake:]) or (as some say, TA) a part, region, quarter, or tract, (K, TA,) and the low ground or land, (TA,) of, or pertaining to, either of these: (K, TA:) pl. أَعْرَاضٌ. (TA.) b3: A valley in which are towns, or villages, and waters: (O, K:) or in which are palm-trees: (K:) or a valley containing many palms and other trees: (TA:) or any valley in which are trees: (S, O:) [see also عَرْضٌ, explained as applied to a valley:] pl. as above, (S,) and عُرْضَانٌ. (TA.) b4: أَعْراضُ الحِجَازِ The towns, or villages, of El-Hijáz: (K:) or these, (TA,) or the أَعْرَاض, (S, O,) are certain towns, or villages, [with their territories; i. e. certain provinces, or districts;] between El-Hijáz and El-Yemen: (S, O, TA:) and some say that أَعْرَاضُ المَدِينَةِ is applied to the towns, or villages, that are in the valleys of El-Medeeneh: (TA:) or the low lands of its towns, or villages, where are seed-produce and palm-trees: so says Sh: (O, TA:) the sing. is عِرْضٌ. (K.) b5: And عِرْضٌ, (S, O,) or أَعْرَاضٌ, (K,) which is its pl., (TA,) signifies [The trees called] أَرَاك (S, O, K) and أَثْل (S, O) and حَمْض. (S, O, K.) A2: Also A great cloud, (K, TA,) appearing, or presenting itself, or intervening, (يَعْتَرِضُ,) in the horizon. (TA.) [See عَرْضٌ and عَارِضٌ, which signify nearly the same.]

A3: I. q. عَرْضٌ, q. v., as signifying (assumed tropical:) An army: (K:) or a great army: (TA:) b2: and as signifying (assumed tropical:) Numerous locusts. (K.) A4: One's self; syn. نَفْسٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) i. e. نَفْسُ رَجُلٍ. (IKt.) You say, أَكْرَمْتُ عَنْهُ عِرْضِى I preserved myself from it. (S, O.) and فُلَانٌ نَقِىُّ العِرْضِ Such a one is [pure in respect of himself; or] free from reproach; (S, O;) or from fault, or vice, or the like. (S, Msb.) and in the same sense it occurs in the saying of Abu-d-Dardà, أَقْرِضْ مِنْ عِرْضِكَ لِيَوْمِ فَقْرِكَ [Lend thou from thyself for the day of thy poverty: but see art. قرض]: and in other instances. (TA.) b2: The body; syn. جَسَدٌ, (IAar, S, O, K,) or بَدَنٌ: (IKt, Az:) pl. أَعْرَاضٌ. (Az, S.) So in the description of the people of Paradise, (Az, S,) in a trad., (Az,) إِنَّمَا هُوَ عَرَقٌ يَجْرِى مِنْ أَعْرَاضِهِمْ [It is only sweat which flows from their bodies]. (Az, S, O.) b3: The skin. (Ibráheem El-Harbee, O, K.) b4: Any place of the body that sweats: (O, K:) so in the trad. cited above: (TA:) or any part of the body such as the arm-pit and the groin and the like. (A'Obeyd.) b5: The odour of the body, (S, O, K,) and of other things, (S, O,) whether sweet or foul. (S, O, K.) You say, فُلَانٌ طَيِّبُ العِرْضِ [Such a one is sweet in respect of odour], and مُنْتِنُ العِرْضِ [foul in respect of odour]; and سِقَآءٌ خَبِيثُ العِرْضِ a stinking water-skin, or milk-skin; from A'Obeyd. (S, O.) b6: A man's honour, or reputation, (جَانِبُهُ,) which he preserves from impairment and blame, both as it relates to himself and to his حَسَب [or grounds of pretension to respect on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of his ancestors, &c.]: (IAth, O, K:) or whether it relate to himself or to his ancestors or to those of whose affairs the management is incumbent on him: (K:) or a subject of praise, and of blame, of a man, (Abu-l-'Abbás, IAth, O, K,) whether it be in himself or in his ancestors or in those of whose affairs the management is incumbent on him: (IAth:) or those things by the mention whereof with praise or dispraise a man rises or falls; which may be things whereby he is characterized exclusively of his ancestors; and it may be that his ancestors are mentioned in such a manner that imperfection shall attach to him by reason of the blaming of them. respecting this there is no disagreement among the lexicologists, except IKt [whose objection see in what follows]: (Abu-l-'Abbás, O:) or (accord. to some, S) grounds of pretension to respect on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of one's ancestors, &c., (حَسَبٌ, S, Msb, K,) and eminence, or nobility, (شَرَفٌ,) in which one glories. (K.) You say, فُلَانٌ كَرِيمُ العِرْضِ Such a one is generous, or noble, in respect of حَسَب: and هُوَ ذُو عِرْضٍ he is a possessor of حَسَب; and of شَرَف. (TA.) b7: Sometimes, Ancestors are meant by it. (A'Obeyd, K.) Thus you say, شَتَمَ فُلَانٌ عِرْضَ فُلَانٍ, meaning Such a one spoke evil of the ancestors of such a one. (A'Obeyd.) And فُلَانٌ جَرِبُ العِرْضِ Such a one is base, or ignoble, in respect of ancestry. (TA.) IKt disallows this signification, asserting عِرْضٌ to have no other signification than those of a man's نَفْس and his بَدَن: (O, * TA:) but I Amb says that this is an error; as is shown by the saying of Aboo-Miskeen Ed-Dárimee, رُبَّ مَهْزُولٍ سَمِينٌ عِرْضُهُ وَسَمِينِ الجِسْمِ مَهْزُولُ الحَسَبْ

in which عِرْض cannot be syn. with بَدَن and جِسْم, for, were it so, it would involve a contradiction; the meaning being only Many a person meagre in respect of his body is noble [or great] in respect of his ancestry; [and fat in respect of the body, meagre in respect of grounds of pretension to honour on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of his ancestors, &c.:] and by Mohammad's using the expression دَمُهُ وَعِرْضُهُ; for if عِرْض were [here] syn. with نَفْس, it had sufficed to say دمه without عرضه. (O, TA.) b8: Also A natural disposition that is commended. (IAth, K.) b9: And A good action. (TA.) A5: Also One who speaks evil of men (يَعْتَرِضُهُمْ) falsely; (O, K;) applied to a man: and so with عِرْضَنٌ applied to a woman: (O, K: *) so too ↓ ة applied to a man, and with عَرْضَنٌ to a woman. (TA.) عَرَضٌ A thing that happens to, befalls, or occurs to, a man; such as disease, and the like; (S, O, K;) as disquietude of mind, and a state of distraction of the mind or attention: or a misfortune, such as death, and disease, and the like: (TA:) or an event that happens to a man, whereby he is tried: (As:) or a thing that happens to a man, whereby he is impeded; such as disease, or a theft: (Lh:) or a bane, or cause of mischief, that occurs in a thing; as also ↓ عَارِضٌ: (TA:) [both signify also an accident of any kind:] pl. أَعْرَاضٌ. (TA.) b2: A thing's befalling, or hitting, unexpectedly. (O, K. [I follow the reading of the O, which is that of the K as given in the TA, and of my MS. copy of the K, أَنْ يُصِيبَ الشَّىْءُ عَلَى غِرَّةٍ; in preference to that in the CK, أَنْ تُصِيبَ الشَّىْءَ عَلَى غِرَّةٍ.]) You say, أَصَابَهُ سَهْمُ عَرَضٍ (S, A, O, K *) and سَهْمٌ عَرَضٌ, (A, TA,) and حَجَرُ عَرَضٍ (S, O) and حَجَرٌ عَرَضٌ, (TA,) [A random arrow, and a random stone, or] an arrow, and a stone, aimed at another, hit him: (S, O, K:) such as hits, or falls upon, a man without any one's shooting it, or casting it, is not thus termed. (L.) And مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ الرَّأْىِ عَرَضًا خَيْرٌ مِمَّا جَآءَكَ مُسْتَكْرَهًا, i. e. [The opinion] that comes to thee without consideration, or thought, [is better than that which comes to thee forced.] (TA.) And عُلِّقْتُهَا عَرَضًا I became attached to her (S, O, K) accidentally, or unintentionally, (S, O,) in consequence of her presenting herself to me (ISk, S, O, K) as a thing occurring without my seeking it. (ISk.) [See an ex., in a verse of Antarah, cited in the first paragraph of art. زعم; and another, in a verse of El-Aashà, cited in the first paragraph of art. علق.] b3: A thing that is not permanent: (Mgh, O, B, K.) so in the conventional language of the Muslim theologians: (Mgh:) opposed to جَوْهَرٌ: (TA:) or hence metaphorically applied by the Muslim theologians to (tropical:) a thing that has not permanence unless in, or by, the substance; [i. e., in the language of old logicians, an accident; an essential, and an accidental (as meaning a non-essential), property, or quality; or what modern logicians call a mode; whether it be, in their language, an essential mode or an accidental mode; which latter only they term “ an accident; ”] as colour, and taste: (B:) or, in the conventional language of the Muslim theologians (المُتَكَلِّمُون [expl. in the TA as signifying “ the philosophers,” from whom, however, they are generally distinguished]), a thing that subsists in, or by, another thing; (O, K;) as colours, and tastes, and smells, and sounds, and powers, and wills: (O: [and the like is said in the Msb:]) or, in philosophy, a thing that exists in its subject, or substance, and ceases therefrom without the latter's becoming impaired or annihilated; and also such as does not cease therefrom: the former kind being such as tawniness occasioned by an altered state of the body, and yellowness of complexion, and motion of a thing moving; and the latter kind, such as the blackness of pitch, and of [the beads called] سَبَج, and of the crow. (L.) b4: [Hence, An appertenance of any kind. b5: Hence also,] The frail goods (حُطَام) of the present world or state; (As, O, K;) and what a man acquires thereof: (As, O:) [so called as being not permanent:] or worldly goods or commodities, (AO, Msb,) of whatever kind, are thus called, with fet-h to the ر: (AO:) and any property or wealth, little or much, (S, O, K,) is thus called, (K,) or is called عَرَضُ الدُّنْيَا. (S, O.) See also عَرْضٌ, expl. as signifying “ a commodity,” or “ commodities ” or “ goods. ” One says, الدُّنْيَا عَرَضٌ حَاضِرٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا البَرُّ وَالفَاجِرُ [The world is a present frail good: the righteous and the unrighteous eat thereof]: (S, O, TA:) i. e. it has no permanence: a trad. related by Sheddád Ibn-Ows. (TA.) And in another trad. related by the same, it is said, لَيْسَ الغِنَى عَنْ كَثْرَةِ العَرَضِ

إِنَّمَا الغِنَى غِنَى النَّفْسِ [Richness is not from the abundance of worldly goods: richness is only richness of the soul]. (O, TA.) One says also, قَدْ فَاتَهُ العَرَضُ, (Yoo, S, L,) and ↓ العَرْضُ, but the former is the more approved, (L,) [The property, &c., (but see another meaning below,) had escaped him], which is from عَرْضُ الجُنْدِ, [see عَرَضَ,] like as one says قَبَضَ قَبْضًا and قَدْ أَلْقَاهُ فِى القَبَضِ: (Yoo, S:) [which seems to indicate that عَرَضٌ properly signifies مَعْرُوضٌ, like as قَبَضٌ signifies مَقْبُوضٌ.] b6: Booty; spoil. (O, K.) So in the Kur ix. 42: (O:) or it there signifies b7: i. q. مَطْلَبٌ [app. meaning A thing sought, or desired; and object of desire; rather than a place where a thing is sought]. (TA.) b8: I. q. طَمَعٌ [app. meaning A thing that is eagerly desired, or coveted: and also eager desire; or covetousness]. (AO, O, K.) So explained by some as occurring in the saying قَدْ فَاتَهُ العَرَضُ, mentioned above. (TA.) And the following verse is also cited as an ex., مَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو بَقَآءً لَا نَفَادَ لَهُ فَلَا يَكُنْ عَرَضُ الدُّنْيَا لَهُ شَجَنَا

[Whoso hopeth for continuance without cessation, let not the eager desire of worldly goods be to him a cause of anxiety]. (O, TA.) b9: A gift. (TA.) See also عُرَاضَةٌ. b10: هُوَ عَلَى عَرَضِ الوُجُودِ signifies عَلَى إِمْكَانِهِ [app. meaning It is in the condition of possibility of existence; for على seems to be here used in the sense of فِى, as in some other instances]; from أَعْرَضَ لَهُ meaning “ it became within his power,” &c. (Mgh.) And one says, هُوَ بِعَرَضٍ

أَنْ يَضِيعَ [He is exposed, or liable, to perish]. (Mgh voce ضَيَاعٌ.) b11: جَعَلَ الشَّىْءَ عَرَضًا لِلشَّىْءِ, or عَرْضًا, accord. to different copies of the K: see 2, in the latter half of the paragraph, in two places.

عُرُضٌ, (L, TA,) in the K, erroneously, ↓ عُرْضٌ, (TA,) A certain manner of going along, (K, TA,) towards one side, (TA,) approved in horses, but disapproved in camels. (K, TA.) b2: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ عَنْ عُرُضٍ: b3: and رَأَيْتُهُ فِى عُرُضِ النَّاسِ: see عُرْضٌ.

عُرْضَةٌ is of the measure فُعْلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعولٌ, like قُبْضَةٌ; (Bd, ii. 224;) and is applied to A thing that is set as an obstacle in the way of a thing: (Bd, TA:) and also to a thing that is exposed to a thing: (Bd:) or that is set as a butt, like the butt of archers. (TA.) You say, جَعَلْتُ فُلَانًا عُرْضَةً لِكَذَا, meaning نَصَبْتُهُ لَهُ; (S, O, K; *) i. e. I set such a one as an obstacle to such a thing: or as a butt for such a thing. (TA.) And هُوَ لَهُ دُونَهُ عُرْضَةٌ He is an obstacle to him intervening in the way of it. (S, O.) And فُلَانٌ عُرْضَةٌ لِلنَّاسِ Such a one is [a butt to men; i. e.] a person whom men cease not to revile: (S, O, Msb, K:) or a person to whom men address themselves to do evil, and whom they revile. (Az, TA.) And هُمْ ضُعَفَآءُ عُرْضَةٌ لِكُلِّ مُتَنَاوِلٍ

They are weak persons; persons who offer themselves as a prey to any one who would take them. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur [ii. 224], وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا اللّٰهُ عُرْضَةً لِأَيْمَانِكُمْ أَنْ تَبَرُّوا وَتَتَّقُوا وَتُصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ, (S, * &c.,) meaning نَصْبًا; (S, TA;) admitting the two significations of an obstacle and a butt: (TA:) i. e. And make not God an obstacle between you and that which may bring you near unto God, &c.: (O, K:) or make not God an obstacle to the performance of your oaths to be pious (O, Bd) and to fear God and to make reconciliation between men: or make not God an obstacle, because of your oaths, to your being pious &c.: (Bd:) or make not the swearing by God an obstacle to your being pious [&c.]: (Fr:) and Zj says the like of this: (L:) or عُرْضَةٌ signifies intervention with respect to good and evil; (Abu-l- 'Abbás, O, K;) and the meaning is, do not intervene by swearing by God every little while so as not to be pious &c.: (O, K, * TA:) or make not God an object of your oaths, by ordinary and frequent swearing by Him, (Bd,) or a butt for your oaths, like the butt of archers, (TA,) in order that ye may be pious &c.; for the habitual swearer emboldens himself against God, and is not pious &c.: (Bd:) or, as some say, the meaning is make not the mention of God a means of strengthening your oaths. (TA.) You say also, هٰذَا عُرْضَةٌ لَكَ as meaning This is a thing prepared for thy common, or ordinary, use. (O, TA.) b2: A purpose; an intention; or an object of desire, or of endeavour; [as though it were a butt;] syn. هِمَّةٌ. (S, O, K.) Hassán says, (S, O,) i. e. Ibn-Thábit, (O, TA,) وَقَالَ اللّٰهُ قَدْ يَسَّرْتُ جُنْدًا هُمُ الأَنْصَارُ عُرْضَتُهَا اللِّقَآءُ [And God said I have prepared an army: they are the Ansár; whose purpose, or the object of whose desire, is conflict with the unbelievers]. (S, O, TA. [In one copy of the S, in the place of يَسَّرْتُ, I find أَعْدَدْتُ, which signifies the same.]) b3: A pretext; an excuse. (MA.) b4: One says also, فُلَانٌ عُرْضَةُ ذَاكَ, (S, O,) or عُرْضَةٌ لِذَاكَ, (S, O, K,) Such a one is possessed of the requisite ability and strength for that: (S, O, K:) and عُرْضَةٌ لِلشَّرِّ possessed of strength to do evil, or mischief: and in like manner عُرْضَةٌ is applied to two things, and to more. (TA.) And فُلَانَةُ عُرْضَةٌ لِلزَّوْجِ (S, O, K) Such a female is possessed of sufficient strength for the husband; [i. e., to be married;] (TA;) or لِلنِّكَاحِ for marriage. (A.) And نَاقَةٌ عُرْضَةٌ لِلْحِجَارَةِ A she-camel having strength enough for [going upon] the stones. (S, O, K.) And [in like manner] أَسْفَارٍ ↓ نَاقَةٌ عُرْضُ A she-camel having strength sufficient for journeys. (S, O, K. *) and هٰذَا البَعِيرِ السَّفَرُ وَالحَجَرُ ↓ عُرْضُ (S, O, K) The strength of this camel is sufficient for journeying and for going over stone. (IB.) A2: عُرْضَةٌ also signifies A kind of trick, or artifice, in wrestling, (S, O, K,) by which one throws down men. (S, O.) عَرْضِىٌّ [in the CK عَرْضٰى] A kind of cloths or garments. (S, O, K.) b2: And Certain of the appertenances (مَرَافِق, O, K) and chambers (O) of the house: a word of the dial. of El-'Irák: (O, K:) unknown to the Arabs. (O.) عُرْضِىٌّ A camel that goes obliquely, or inclining towards one side, because not yet completely trained: (S, O, K:) or submissive in the middle part [or body, so as to be easy to ride, but] difficult of management: and perverse, untoward, or intractable: and with ة, a she-camel not completely trained: (TA:) or difficult to manage; refractory. (S, O, K.) See also عَرُوضٌ. b2: One who does not sit steadily, or firmly, upon the saddle; (IAar, O, K;) inclining at one time this way, and at another time that way. (IAar, O.) يَمْشِى بِالعَرْضِيَّةِ, and ↓ بِالعُرْضِيَّةِ, the latter from Lh, He goes sideways. (TA.) عُرْضِيَّةٌ: see what next precedes. Refractoriness, and a random or heedless manner of going, by reason of pride: in a horse, the going sideways: and in a she-camel, the state of being untrained: (TA:) and in a man, [so expressly shown in the S and TA; but in the CK, قِيلَ is erroneously put for فِيكَ;] what resembles roughness, ungentleness, or awkwardness; want of due care, by reason of haste; (syn. عَجْرَفِيَّةٌ;) and pride; and refractoriness. (Az, S, O, K.) A2: [See also عَرْضِىٌّ.]

عِرَضَّى, with fet-h to the ر; (O;) or عِرِضَّى, like زِمِكَّى; (K;) Briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness. (IAar, O, K. [See also عِرَضْنَةٌ.]) b2: and [app. for ذُو عِرَضَّى] meaning also Brisk, lively, or sprightly. (TA. [See, again, عِرَضْنَةٌ.]) عِرْضَنٌ; fem. with ة: see عِرْضٌ, last sentence.

عِرَضْنَةٌ An oblique course or motion: (A'Obeyd, L, TA:) and briskness, liveliness, sprightliness: and عِرِضْنَةٌ signifies the same. (TA. [See also عِرَِضَّى.]) One says, يَمْشِى العِرَضْنَةَ and ↓ العِرَضْنَى He goes along with a proud gait, (S, O, K,) inclining towards one side, (S, O,) by reason of his briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness. (S, O, K.) And ↓ تَعْدُو العِرَضْنَى and العِرَضْنَةَ and العِرَضْنَاةَ [perhaps correctly العِرَضْنَاتَ] She (a mare) runs in a sidelong manner, one time in one direction and another time in another. (O, TA.) and يَعْدُو العِرَضْنَةَ He (a man) runs so that he outstrips. (L, TA.) And نَظَرْتُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ عِرَضْنَةً I looked towards such a one from the outer angle of my eye. (S, O, K. *) The dim. of ↓ عِرَضْنَى is ↓ عُرَيْضِنٌ; the ن being retained because it is a letter of quasi-coordination, and the ى suppressed because it is not such. (S, O.) b2: Also, [app. for ذَاتُ عِرَضْنَةٍ,] A she-camel that goes along obliquely, (S, O, K,) by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness: pl. عِرَضْنَاتٌ. (S, O. [See, again, عِرَضَّى.] But A'Obeyd disallows the application of this epithet to a she-camel. (TA in art. عرضن.) b3: And A woman that has become broad by reason of her fatness and plumpness. (TA.) عِرَضْنى: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

عُرَاضٌ: see عَرِيضٌ, in four places: A2: see also عُرْضٌ, in the latter half of the paragraph.

عِرَاضٌ: see عُرْضٌ, in the first sentence, and again, in four places, in the latter half of the paragraph. b2: أَخَذَ فِى عِرَاضِ كَلَامِــهِ He began to say the like of that which he [another] had said: or, as in the O, he matched him, and equalled him, by saying the like of what he had said.

(TA.) b4: The place that is over against one, or on the opposite side to one, as he goes along. (S, O, K.)

(TA.) [See also عَرْضٌ and عِرْضٌ.] In the phrase عَارِضٌ مُمْطِرُنَا, in the Kur [xlvi. 23], ممطرنا means مُمْطِرٌ لَنَا; for as being determinate it cannot be an epithet to عَارِضٌ, which is indeterminate: and the like of this the Arabs do only in the instances of nouns derived from verbs; so that you may not say هٰذَا رَجُلٌ غُلَامُنَا.

(TA.) خَفِيفُ العَارِضَيْنِ means Light, or scanty, in the hair of the two sides of the cheeks, (S, O, Msb,) and of the beard; (O;) being elliptical. (Msb.) But in a certain trad., in which a happy quality of a man is said to be خِفَّةُ عَارِضَيْهِ, the meaning is said to be (tropical:) His activity in praising and glorifying God; i. e. his not ceasing to move the sides of his cheeks by praising and glorifying God. (IAth, on the authority of El-Khattábee; and O.) b12: The side of the neck; (K;) the two sides thereof being called the عَارِضَانِ: (IDrd, O:) pl. as above. (TA.)

A poet describes a she-camel carrying dates, and having outgone the other camels, so that the crows, or ravens, alighted upon her, and ate the dates, as being مِنْ مُعَرِّضَاتِ الغِرْبَانِ, as though she were of those feeding the crows, or ravens, of what is termed عُرَاضَة, q. v. (S.) A2: Also the circumciser of a boy: (K:) [or] so ↓ مُعْرِضٌ. (O:) مِعْرَاضٌ An arrow having no feathers (As, S, Mgh, O, Msb, K) nor head, (As,) slender at the two extremities, and thick in the middle, (O, K,) being in form like the wooden implement wherewith cotton is separated from its seeds, or is separated and loosened [by striking therewith the string of a bow], (O, TA,) which goes sideways, (Mgh, [in the O and TA, مُسْتَوِيًا, app. a mistranscription, for مُسْتَعْرِضًا,]) striking with its عَرْض [or middle part, unless this be a mistake for عُرْض, or side], (Mgh, [in my copy of which, عرض is without any vowel-sign,] and K,) not with its extremity: (Mgh, K:) sometimes, it strikes with its thick middle part in such a manner that it breaks and crushes what it strikes so that it is like the thing that is beaten to death; and if the object of the chase be near to it, it strikes it with the place of the head thereof: if it make a hole, the game smitten with it may be eaten; but not if it strike with a middle part (بِعَرْضٍ). (O, TA.) A2: An oblique, indirect, obscure, ambiguous, or equivocal, mode of speech; as when thou askest a man, “Hast thou seen such a one? ” and he, having seen him, and disliking to lie, answers, “ Verily such a one is seen: ” (Msb:) from عَرَّضَ [q. v.]: (Msb, El-Munáwee: the latter in explaining a trad., q. v. infrà:) i. q. تَوْرِيَةٌ [signifying as above; or the pretending one thing and meaning another; or the using a word, an expression, or a phrase, which has an obvious meaning, and intending thereby another meaning to which it applies but which is contrary to the obvious one]; the original meaning of which is concealment: (Msb:) or language whereof one part resembles another in the meanings: (O, TA: [in the TA immediately follows the exemplification cited above, from the Msb; whence it seems that this explanation is itself somewhat of a معراض, meaning what it does not clearly express:]) or المَعَارِيضُ فِى الــكَلَامِ [thus, with the pl. form, in two copies of the S, and in the TA,] signifies التَّوْرِيَةُ بِالشَّىْءِ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ [the pretending, or making believe, a thing instead of another thing]: (S:) and مَعَارِضُ الــكَلَامِ and ↓ أَعْرَاضُهُ signify the same as مَعَارِيضُهُ. (TA.) [مَعَارِضُ is a contraction of مَعَارِيضُ, like as مِعْرضٌ is said to be of مِعْرَاضٌ when syn. therewith.] It is said in a prov., (S,) a trad., (TA,) إِنَّ فِى

المَعَارِيضِ لَمَنْدُوحَةً عَنِ الكَذِبِ [Verily, in oblique, indirect, obscure, ambiguous, or equivocal, modes of speech is ample scope, freedom, or liberty, (سَعَةٌ, S,) to avoid lying; or, as is said in the L in art. ندح, that which renders one in no need of lying]. (S, Msb.) One says also, عَرَفْتُهُ فِى

مِعْرَاضِ كَلَامِــهِ, expl. voce عَرُوضٌ which see in three places, and كَلَامِــهِ ↓ فِى مِعْرَضِ, rejecting the ا: this latter is said by some of the learned to be a metaphorical expression, from مِعْرَضٌ signifying the “ garment in which girls are displayed,” as though the meaning were (tropical:) [I knew it] in the form, or manner, and guise, and mould, of his speech; but this does not obtain in all kinds of speech; for it may not be said in cases of reviling; indeed it would be bad, in these cases, to use as a metaphor the garment of adornment: therefore the proper way is to say that مِعْرَضٌ is a contraction of مِعْرَاضٌ. (Msb.) One also says الأَلْفَاظُ مَعَارِيضُ المَعَانِى (tropical:) [Words are the robes of meanings]: and this phrase also is [said to be] taken from مِعْرَضٌ signifying the “ garment in which a girl is displayed; ” because words adorn meanings. (TA.) مُعَارِضٌ A camel that does not go straightly in the file, or series, but takes to the right and left: (A:) or a she camel such as is termed عَلُوق; that makes a show of affection with her nose [by smelling her young one], (تَرْأَمُ بِأَنْفِهَا,) and refuses to yield her milk. (AA, O, K.) سَحَابٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فِى الأُفُقِ: i. q. عَارِضٌ, q. v. b2: [جُمْلَةٌ مُعْتَرِضَةٌ A parenthetic clause.] b3: فُلَانٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فِى خُلُقِهِ [Such a one is habitually cross, or perverse, in his disposition, in every case,] is said of a man when everything of his affairs displeases thee. (TA.) b4: هَوًى مُعْتَرِضٌ Love that befalls at first sight, and captivates the heart at once unless it quit it quickly as it seized it quickly. (Ham p. 551.)
