[And لَبِسَ أَبَاهُ, which is explained in the TA by مَلَّهُ, which I also find in a copy of the A thought to have been used by the author of the TA: but, from what follows, it appears to me that the right reading is مُلِّيَهُ, and the meaning, (tropical:) He enjoyed long life with his father: or he lived the period that his father lived: or he lived with his father all his (the latter's) life: see a verse of Ibn-Ahmar cited voce أَبْلَى in art. بلو. See also a verse of El-'Ajjáj cited voce خَلَجَ.] You say also, لَبِسْتُ فُلَانًا (tropical:) I took, or chose, such a one particularly, or specially, as a friend or companion.

A2: لَبَسَ عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرَ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ (S, M, Msb, K,) inf. n. لَبْسٌ, (S, M, Msb,) He made, or rendered, the thing, or case, or affair, confused to him: (S, M, Msb, K:) and ↓ لبّسهُ, (A, Msb,) inf. n. تَلْبِيسٌ, (S, K,) signifies the same in an intensive degree: (S, * Msb, K: *) or the former signifies either as above, or he concealed the thing, or case, or affair, from him: (R, MF:) and [in like manner] تَلْبِيسٌ is syn. with تَدْلِيسٌ, (K,) or is similar thereto: (S:) and the former also signifies he made, or rendered, the thing, or case, or affair, dubious to him; (TA;) [as also ↓ لبّسهُ: both signify he involved the thing, or case, or affair, in confusion, or doubt, to him: and he concealed, disguised, or cloaked, it to him.] It is said in the Kur., [vi. 9,] وَلَلَبَسْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ مَا يَلْبِسُونَ And we would make confused to them what they make confused: (S, Msb:) or make dubious to them what they make dubious, and would make them to err like as they have made to err.

You say also, لَبَسَنِى, meaning, He, or it, made me to become confounded, or in doubt, (جَعَلَنِى أَلْتَبِسُ,) respecting his case, or affair. (TA, from a trad.) 2 لَبَّسَ see 4: b2: and see also لَبَسَ, in three places. [تَلْبِيسٌ, alone, often signifies The involving a thing in confusion, or doubt: and the practising concealment, or disguise.]

(Ibn-'Arafeh, K.) Yousay, لَا بَسْتُهُ حَتَّى عَرَفْتُ دُخْلَتَهُ I mixed with him [until I knew his mind, or inward state or circumstances]. (A.)

Yousay, الحَرَّةُ الأَرْضُ الَّتِى أَلْبَسَتْهَا حِجَارَةٌ سُودٌ [The حرّة is ground which black stones have covered, or covered the wholly]. (TA.) And أَلْبَسَتِ السَّمَآءَ السَّحَابُ. (TA,) or أَلْبَسَ, (AA,) [The clouds covered the sky, &c.;] but you do not say, لَبِسَ السَّمَآءُ السَّحَابَ. (AA.) And أَلْبَسَنَا اللَّيْلُ [The night covered us, &c.]; but not لَبِسْنَا اللَّيْلَ. (AA.) And البسهُ الشَّبَابُ: see 1 in art. غطو and غطى.

A3: See also 8.5 تلبّس بِالثَّوْبِ (S, K) He clad himself [lit. mixed himself, being explained by إِخْتَلَطَ,] with the garment. (K.) You say, تلبّس بِلِبَاسٍ حَسَنٍ and لِبَاسًا حَسَنًا [He clad himself with goodly clothing].

b3: تلبّس الطَّعَامُ بِاليَدِ The food stuck to the hand. (K.) b4: تلبّس بِىَ الأَمْرُ The thing, as, for instance, love, mingled with me, and clung to me. (M.) [See an ex. in a verse cited voce عَطْفَةٌ.]8 التبس It (spun thread) became entangled. (Lth, Az, Sgh, in TA, art. عسر.) b2: It (a thing, or an affair, or a case) became [involved, complicated,] confounded, or confused, (S, M, Msb, *) and dubious; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ أَلْبَسَ, (TA,) and ↓ لَبَّسَ, which last belongs to the class of بَيَّنَ in the phrase قَدْ بَيَّنَ الصُّبْحُ لِذِى عَيْنَيْنِ (M, TA.) [You say, التبس الشَّىْءُ بِشَىْءٍ آخَرَ The thing became confounded with another thing; as, for instance, a subst. with a part. n. when both are written in the same manner, as in the case of كَاهِلٌ.] And التبس عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرُ The thing, or affair, became confused and dubious to him. (S.) And جَعَلَنِى أَلْتَبِسُ فِى أَمْرِهِ [He, or it, made me to become confounded, or in doubt, respecting his case, or affair]. (TA.) and اُلْتُبِسَ بِى I was, or became, disordered in my mind.

&c.: see 5. b4: اِلْتَبَسَتْ بِهِ الخَيْلُ (tropical:) The horsemen overtook him. (A, TA.) b5: [التبس بِهِ also signifies He, or it, made it to be, or had it, as an accompaniment, or an adjunct. Hence, one of the uses of the preposition بِ is explained by some as being لِلْاِلْتِبَاسِ: by others, ↓ لِلْمُلَابَسَةِ, or لِلْمُصَاحَبَةِ: all of which signify nearly the same. For instance, it is said in the Mgh, art. توج, that in the phrase التَّمَاثِيلُ بِالتِيجَانِ “ the effigies with the crowns ” upon pieces of money, بالتيجان is used as a denotative of state, meaning مُلْتَبِسَةً بِالِتّيجَانِ and مَقْرُونَةً مَعَهَا accompanied with the crowns, as their attributes: and نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ “ we declare thy remoteness from evil, with the praising of Thee,” in the Kur ii. 28, is explained by Bd and others as meaning, مُلْتَبِسِينَ بِحَمْدِكَ making the praising of Thee to be as an accompaniment, or an adjunct, to our doing that: and تَنْبُتُ بِالدُّهْنِ “ growing, with oil ”, in the same, xxiii. 20, as meaning, مُلْتَبِسًا بِالدُّهْنِ having oil as an accompaniment to its growth. Sometimes, in such instances, we find مُتَلَبِّسًا and مُتَلَبِّسِينَ in the places of مُلْتَبِسًا and مُلْتَبِسِينَ: see 5.]
