سَرَاوِيل a Pers\. word, (S, * M, Msb, * K,) originally شَلْوَار, (MA, KL, [in the former loosely expl. by the word إِزَارٌ, and so in the PS,]) of well-known meaning, (S,) [Drawers, trousers, or breeches; originally applied to such as are worn under other clothing;] a certain under-garment; (MA;) [but now applied also to such as are worn externally;] is masc. [and perfectly decl., i. e. with tenween], and fem. [and imperfectly decl., i. e. without tenween]; (S, M, Msb, K; *) sometimes masc., (Msb, K,) but not known to As otherwise than as fem.; (M;) accord. to the usage most commonly obtaining, it is imperfectly decl. and fem.: (MF:) Sb says that it is a sing., and is a foreign, or Pers\., word, arabicized; resembling, in their [the Arabs'] language, what is imperfectly decl. [as a pl. of the measure فَعَالِيلُ] when determinate and when indeterminate; but is perfectly decl. when indeterminate; and imperfectly decl. if applied as a proper name to a man, and so is its dim. if so applied, because it is fem. and of more than three letters: (S:) or it is imperfectly decl. as a proper name because it is also originally a foreign word; and its dim., ↓ سُرَيْيِيل, [for سُرَيْوِيل, the و being changed into ى, as in سَيِّدٌ for سَيْوِدٌ,] is perfectly decl. unless used as a proper name, in which latter case it is imperfectly decl. [for the reason above mentioned or] because it is fem. and determinate: (IB, TA:) it (i. e. سَرَاوِيل) is made, as a pl., imperfectly decl. when indeterminate by some of the grammarians; (S;) and it occurs in poetry imperfectly decl. [when indeterminate]: (S, M, * IB, TA:) [but this may be by poetic license:] thus in the saying of Ibn-Mukbil, أَتَى دُونَهَا ذَبُّ الرِّيَادِ كَأَنَّهُ فَتًى فَارِسِىٌّ سَرَاوِيلَ رَامِحُ [The came as an obstacle intervening in the way to her, or them, the wild bull, as though he were a Persian youth in drawers; one with a pair of horns]: (S, * IB, TA:) the former [however] is the usual way, [contrary to what has been said on the authority of MF,] though the latter is more valid: (S:) the pl. is سَرَاوِيلَاتٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) Sb says that it has no broken pl., because, if it had, it would be the same as the sing.: (M:) or, (K,) some say, (S, M, Msb,) namely those grammarians who make it imperfectly decl. when indeterminate, (S,) holding it to be [originally] an Arabic word, (Msb,) it is a pl. of which the sing. is ↓ سِرْوَالَةٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ سِرْوَالٌ (S, K) and ↓ سِرْوِيلٌ, which is [said to be] the only instance of a word of the measure فَعْوِيلٌ: (K:) [this, therefore, confirms the opinion that I hold, that the measure of this word is فِعْلِيلٌ, and that all the words of the present art. are quadriliteral-radical, agreeably with an assertion in the TA that سرل is not genuine Arabic: though it seems that all the lexicographers regard the و in the words of this art. as augmentative:] a poet says, فَلَيْسَ يَرِقُّ لِمُسْتَعْطِفِ * ↓ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ اللُّؤْمِ سِرْوَالَةٌ [Upon him is an under-garment of ignobleness, (i. e. ignobleness cleaves to him like a pair of drawers,) so that he does not become tenderhearted to one who endeavours to conciliate him]: (S, * M:) in the “ Mujarrad,” سَرَاوِيلُ is made fem., and ↓ سِرْوَالٌ masc.: (Msb:) سَرَاوِين is a dial. var.; (K;) or syn. with سَرَاوِيل; the ن in the former being asserted by Yaakoob to be a substitute for the ل [in the latter]: (M:) and شِرْوَالٌ, with ش, is likewise a dial. var. [of سِرْوَالٌ], (K,) mentioned by Es-Sijistánee, on the authority of some one or more of the Arabs: (TA:) [the common modern pronunciation is شَرْوَال: pl. شَرَاوِيل.]

سُرَيْيِيل: dim. of سَرَاوِيل, q. v. (IB, TA.) مُسَرْوَلٌ Clad with سَرَاوِيل; as also ↓ مُتَسَرْوِلٌ. (A, TA.) b2: [Hence,] طَائِرٌ مُسَرْوَلٌ (tropical:) A bird whose plumage clothes its legs. (M, L, TA.) and حَمَامَةٌ مُسَرْوَلَةٌ (tropical:) A pigeon having feathers upon its legs. (S, K, TA.) And فَرَسٌ مُسَرْوَلٌ, (K,) or فَرَسٌ أَبْلَقُ مُسَرْوَلٌ, (A'Obeyd, S, TA,) (tropical:) [A horse, or a black and white horse,] whose whiteness of the legs extends (A'Obeyd, S, K) beyond, (A'Obeyd, K, TA,) or to, (S,) the arms and thighs: (A'Obeyd, S, K:) or مُسَرْوَلٌ applied to a horse means white in the hinder part, [and black, or of some other colour, in the hind legs,] the whiteness descending to the thighs. (A, voce آزَرُ.) b3: And المُسَرْوَلُ signifies (assumed tropical:) The wild bull: because of the blackness that is in his legs. (Az, TA.) مُتَسَرْوِلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

(TA.) b2: رَفَوْتُ الرَّجُلَ, (ISk, S, M,) third Pers\. رَفَا, (K,) [aor. and inf. n. as above,] (tropical:) I appeased, or quieted, or calmed, the man; (ISk, M, TA;) as also رَفَأْتُهُ; (M and K in art. رفأ;) [i. e.] I quieted the man's fear; (S, K, TA;) did away with his fear, like as one does away with a rent, or hole, by الرَّفْو [i. e. darning]. (TA.) b3: And رَفَا, aor. ـْ (tropical:) He married, or took a wife; (TA;) and رَفَأَ is said to signify the same. (TA in art. رفأ.) 2 رَفَّيْتُهُ, inf. n. تَرْفِيَةٌ, I said to him (i. e. to a man taking to himself a wife, S) بِالرِّفَآءِ وَالبَنِينَ [expl. below, see 3]: (S, K:) and so رَفَّأْتُهُ. (T, S, M, K; all in art. رفأ.) 3 يُرَافِينِى means He agrees, or is of one mind or opinion, with me; [the inf. n.] مُرَافَاةٌ being syn. with اِتِّفَاقٌ, (S, TA,) or مُوَافَقَةٌ, (Az, M, TA,) as also رِفَآءٌ, (Az, TA,) this latter being thus made by Az an inf. n. [like the former]: (TA:) [or]

↓ رِفَآءٌ [is a simple subst., or is generally used as such, and] signifies close union, or coalescence; and concord, or agreement; (S, K, TA;) and good consociation: (TA:) and hence the saying, to one taking to himself a wife, (S, in the TA للملك [to the king],) بِالرِّفَآءِ وَالبَنِينَ [May it (the marriage) be with close union, &c., further expl. in art. رفأ]: (S, TA:) ISk says that it is originally with ء; (TA;) but if you will, he says, the meaning may be, with tranquillity, or freedom from disturbance or agitation; from رَفَوْتُ الرَّجُلَ

“ I appeased, or quieted, or calmed, the man. ” (S, TA.) b2: مُرَافَاةٌ is also syn. with مُدَارَاةٌ: and with مُحَابَاةٌ: as a dial. var. of مُرَافَأَةٌ: [i. e., رَافَاهُ signifies, like دَارَاهُ, He treated him with gentleness, or blandishment; soothed, coaxed, wheedled, or cajoled, him; &c.: and he treated him in an easy and a gentle manner in selling; or abated to him the price, or payment:] and accord. to IAar, ↓ ارفاهُ [also, like ارفأهُ,] is syn. with دَارَاهُ. (TA.) 4 أَرْفَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ I had recourse, or I betook myself, or repaired, to him, or it, for refuge, protection, preservation, concealment, covert, or lodging: (TA:) and I inclined to, or towards, him, or it: a dial. var. of أَرْفَأْتُ. (Fr, TA.) A2: أَرْفَيْتُ السَّفِينَةَ I brought the ship near to the land; a dial. var. of أَرْفَأْتُ. (ISh, TA.) b2: See also 3, last sentence.6 تَرَافَوْا عَلَى الأَمْرِ They agreed together to do the thing; a dial. var. of تَرَافَؤُوا. (TA.) رُفَةٌ: pl. رُفَاتٌ: see رُفَهٌ, in art. رفه.

رِفَآءٌ: see 3; and see also art. رفأ.

(Az, K, TA.) [See also شَقَاوَةٌ below.] b2: Also (assumed tropical:) He suffered, or experienced, fatigue, (TA, and Ksh and Bd and Jel in xx. 1,) فِى كَذَا [in such a thing]. (TA.)

(K. [In the S, شَاقَانِى فُلَانٌ فَشَقَوْتُهُ, aor. ـْ and only the latter verb as thus used is there explained.]) b3: مُشَاقَاةٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) The treating [one] with hardness, harshness, or illnature. (TA.) b4: And (tropical:) The vying, one with another, in patience, or endurance: a rájiz says, إِذَا يُشَاقِى الصَّابِرَانِ لَمْ يَرِثْ يَكَادُ مِنْ ضَعْفِ القُوَى لَا يَنْبَعِثْ [When the two patient ones vie in endurance, he does not lag behind, almost, by reason of the weakness of powers, failing to hasten in pace]: he means a camel vying with the attendant thereof in endurance of going.

شَكْوة: شكوى، دعوى أمام القضاء (بوشر).
شكاء: اتهام، دعوى. و (بالأسبانية القديمة achaque وهي مشتقة منها تدل على نفس المعنى).

مِشْكَاة: تعنى هذه الكلمة في الحبشة كوّة، أي فتحة في الجدار يدخل منها الضوء إلى داخل البيت (انظر معجم الحبشة لديلمان 382) وانظر المعرب للجواليقي ص135.
وأكثر مفسري القرآن لا يرون هذا المعنى ففي القران الكريم (سورة رقم 24 للآية 35):} ((مثل نوره كمشكاة فيها مصباح)) {فأرادوا أن يبتعدوا عنه فالمشكاة في رأيهم كوة غير نافذة في الجدار يوضع فيها القنديل والمصباح.
ولعلهم انساقوا إلى هذا الخطأ بسبب أصل للكلمة غير صحيح. وأرى ان يترك الأصل الحبشي إلى جانب. وقد كانت كلمة مشكاة تدل دائماً في اللغة السائدة (لأني لا أتكلم عن المؤلفين الذين اتبعوا مفسري القرآن) على موضع فتيلة السراج وهو أنبوب من المعدن فيه الفتيلة، وهذا ما يذكره الكالا، ويذكر المقري (1: 361) مشاكي الرصاص أي مواضع فتيلة السراج بمعنى كؤوس أو مصابيح جامع قرطبة. وفي رسائل ابن الخطيب، (مخطوطة 2ص 21 و): إلى ما لا يحصى من الأنوار والمشاكي وأوعية المشاعل.
وإذا ما أغفلت ذكر بعض النصوص لأنها لا تؤكد ما أقول فإني انقل ما في المقري (1: 511) حيث يقول الباجي لابن حزم: أنا أعظم منك همة في طلب العلم لأنك طلبته وأنت مُعانٌ تسهر بمشكاة الذهب وطلبته وأنا أسهر بقنديل.
وأخيراً فان فوك يذكر هذه الكلمة في مادة لاتينية معناها مصباح، ولعله أراد أن يدل على معنى موضع فتيلة السراج أو أن مشكاة عنده تعنى المصباح، وكلاهما محتمل.
مشتكى: نوح، نحيب عويل (بوشر).
