A3: اطرف فُلَانًا He gave to such a one what he had not given to any one before him: (L, K, * TA:) or he gave him a thing of which he did not possess the like, and which pleased him: (TA:) [and he gave him property newly, or recently, acquired.] You say, أَطْرَفَهُ كَذَا and بِكَذَا, meaning أَتْحَفَهُ [He gave him such a thing as a تُحْفَة, i. e. طُرْفَة, q. v.].

One says of good discourse, يَسْتَطْرِفُهُ مَنْ سَمِعَهُ [He who has heard it esteems it new]. (K.) b2: and استطرف الشَّىْءَ He found, gained, or acquired, the thing newly. (S, O, K.

[See also 2, last signification but one.]) طَرْفٌ The eye; a word having no pl. in this sense because it is originally an inf. n., (S, O, K,) therefore it may denote a sing. and may also denote a pl. number [i. e. may signify also eyes]: (S, O, Msb:) or, (K,) as Ibn-'Abbád says, (O,) it is a coll. n. signifying the بَصَر [which has the sing. and the pl. meanings mentioned above, as well as the meaning of the sense of sight], and is not dualized nor pluralized: or, as some say, it has for pl. أَطْرَافٌ: (O, K:) but this is refuted by the occurrence of طَرْف in a pl. sense in the Kur xxxvii. 47 and xxxviii. 52 and lv. 56: (O:) and though الأَطْرَاف is said to occur as its pl. in a trad. of Umm-Selemeh, this is a mistake for الإِطْرَاق: (Z, O:) it is said, however, that its being originally an inf. n. is not a reason for its not being allowable to pluralize it when it has become a subst., and especially when it is not meant to convey the signification of an epithet: (MF:) [but it may be regarded as an epithet; meaning seer, and, being originally an inf. n., seers also; and this is the more probable because]

↓ الطَّوَارِفُ [is an epithet used as a subst., and thus] signifies the eyes, (S, O, K,) as in the saying هُوَ بِمَكَانٍ لَا تَرَاهُ الطَّوَارِفُ [He is in a place in which the eyes will not see him]; (S, * O, * TA;) pl. of ↓ طَارِفَةٌ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] الطَّرْفُ is the name of (assumed tropical:) Two stars, which precede الجَبْهَةُ, (S, O, K,) so called because (K) they are [regarded as] the two eyes of Leo; one of the Mansions of the Moon: (S, O, K:) [often called الطَّرْفَةُ, q. v.:] the طَرْف of Leo, consisting of two small stars in front of الجَبْهَة, like the فَرْقَدَانِ, but inferior to them in light, and having somewhat of obliquity; the Ninth Mansion of the Moon: (Kzw in his descr. of that Mansion:) or the star [app. lambda] in the face of Leo, together with that which is outside [app. alpha] on the figure of Cancer: (Kzw in his descr. of Leo:) or the bright star [alpha] on the hinder, southern, leg, or foot, [i. e. claw,] of Cancer. (Kzw in his descr. of Cancer.) [See مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل.] b3: And طَرْفُ العَيْنِ signifies The eyelid. (TA.) A2: Also طَرْفٌ, A man generous, or noble, (K, TA, [see also طِرْفٌ,]) in respect of ancestry, up to the greatest [i. e. most remote] forefather. (TA.) A3: See also طَرَفٌ, first sentence.

طُرْفٌ: see طَرِيفٌ, with which it is syn., and of which it is also a pl. طِرْفٌ A generous horse: (As, S, O, K:) or, accord. to Er-Rághib, one that is looked at (يُطْرَفُ) because of his beauty; so that it is originally مَطْرُوفٌ, i. e. مَنْظُورٌ; like نِقْضٌ in the sense of مَنْقُوضٌ: (TA:) pl. طُرُوفٌ (As, S, O, K) and أَطْرَافٌ: (O, K:) accord. to Az, an epithet applied peculiarly to the males: (S, O, K: *) or generous in respect of the sires and the dams: (Lth, O, K:) or recently acquired; not of his owner's breeding; fem. with ة, (O, K,) occurring in a verse of El-'Ajjáj: Lth says that they sometimes apply the epithets طِرْفٌ and طِرْفَةٌ as syn. with نَجِيبٌ and نَجِيبَةٌ, in a manner unusual in the language: (O:) accord. to Ks, طِرْفَةٌ is applied as an epithet to a mare: (TA:) and طِرْفٌ signifies also a horse long in the legs or the neck, having the ears pointed, tapering, or slender at the extremities. (TA in the supplement to this art.) b2: And (tropical:) Generous (S, O, TA) as an epithet applied to a young man (S, TA) or to a man; (O, TA;) as also ↓ طَرَفٌ: (O, K:) or a man generous in respect of his male and his female ancestors: (K, * TA:) pl. أَطْرَافٌ: (O, K:) when applied to other than man, its pl. [or rather one of its pls.] is طُرُوفٌ. (K.) b3: See also طَرَفٌ, latter half. b4: And رَجُلٌ طِرْفٌ فِى نَسَبِهِ, (K, TA,) with kesr, (TA,) [in the CK, erroneously, طَرْفٌ,] (assumed tropical:) A man whose nobility is recent: as though a contraction of ↓ طَرِفٌ. (K, TA.) b5: And اِمْرَأَةٌ طِرْفُ الحَدِيثِ, (K, TA,) with kesr, (TA,) [in the CK طَرْف,] A woman whose discourse is good; every one who has heard it esteeming it new (يَسْتَطْرِفُهُ). (K, * TA.) A2: And One desirous of possessing everything that he sees. (K.) b2: See also طَرِفٌ, in two places. b3: And see طَرِيفٌ.

A3: Also Anything of the produce of the earth still in the calyxes thereof. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K, *) طَرَفٌ The extremity, or end, of anything; [as of a sword, and of a spear, and of a rope, and of the tongue, &c.;] thus accord. to ISd; but in the K this meaning is assigned to ↓ طَرْفٌ: (TA: [several evidences of the correctness of the former word in this sense will be found in the present art.; and countless instances of it occur in other arts. &c.: it seems to have been generally regarded by the lexicographers as too notorious to need its being mentioned:]) and a side; a lateral, or an outward, or adjacent, part or portion; a region, district, quarter, or tract; syn. نَاحِيَةٌ: (S, O, Msb, K:) and a part, portion, piece, or bit, (syn. طَائِفَةٌ,) of a thing: (S, O, K:) it is used in relation to bodies, or material things, and to times &c.; (Er-Rághib, TA;) and is thus used in the sense of طَائِفَة of a people, in the Kur iii. 122; (Ksh;) [and may often be rendered somewhat of a thing, whether material (as land &c.) or not material (as in the T and S voce ذَرْوٌ, where it is used of a saying, and as in the S and A and K in art. هوس &c., where it is used of madness, or insanity, or diabolical possession):] the pl. is أَطْرَافٌ. (O, Msb, K.) b2: [Hence,] الأَطْرَافُ signifies The fingers: and [when relating to the fingers] has no sing. unless this is used as a prefixed noun, as in the saying أَشَارَتْ بِطَرَفِ إِصْبَعِهَا [She made a sign with the end of her finger]: but the pl. is said by Az to be used in the sense of the sing. in the following ex. cited by Fr, يُبْدِينَ أَطْرَافًا لِطَافًا عَنَيَهٌ [so that the meaning is, They show an elegant finger like a fruit of the species of tree called عَنَم]; therefore the poet says عَمَنَه [which is a n. un.: but I think that it is much more reasonable, and especially as the verb is pl., to regard the ه in this case as the ه of pausation, of which see an ex. voce حِينٌ; and accordingly to render the saying, they show elegant fingers like fruits of the عَنَم]. (TA.) It is said in a trad. of Abraham, when he was a little child, جُعِلَ رِزْقُهُ فِى أَطْرَافِهِ [His sustenance was made to be in his fingers]; meaning that he used to suck his fingers and find in them that which nourished him. (TA.) b3: And [hence] أَطْرَافُ العَذَارَى (tropical:) A species of grapes, (A, K, TA,) white and slender, found at Et-Táïf: (A, TA:) or, as in the L, black and long, resembling acorns, likened to the fingers of virgins, that are dyed [with حِنَّآء], because of their length; and the bunch of which is about a cubit long. (TA.) b4: ذُو الطَّرَفَيْنِ is an appellation of A sort of serpent, (K,) a sort of black serpent, (TA,) or the [serpent called] أَسْوَد, (O,) having two stings, one in its nose and the other in its tail, with both of which, (O, K, TA,) so it is said, (O, TA,) it smites, and it suffers not him whom it smites to linger, killing at once. (O, K, TA.) b5: طَرَفَا الدَّابَّةِ sometimes means The fore part and the hinder part of the beast. (TA.) b6: and أَطْرَافُ الجَسَدِ (O) or البَدَنِ (K) means [The extremities of the body; i. e.] the arms or hands, and the legs or feet, and the head: (O, K:) or, as in the L, أَطْرَافٌ is pl. of طَرَفٌ as syn. with شَوَاةٌ [n. un. of شَوًى, q. v.]. (TA.) b7: [And the dual has various other meanings assigned to it, derived from the first of the significations mentioned in this paragraph.] It is said in a trad. (O, K) of the Prophet, (O,) كَانَ إِذَا اشْتَكَى أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ لَمْ تَزَلِ البُرْمَةُ عَلَى النَّارِ حَتَّى يَأْتِىَ عَلَى أَحَدِ طَرَفَيْهِ [It was the case that when any one of his family had a complaint, the cooking-pot did not cease to be on the fire but he arrived at one of his two limits]; meaning (assumed tropical:) convalescence or death; because these are the two terminations of the case of the diseased. (O, K.) b8: And one says, لَا يَمْلِكُ طَرَفَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) He will not have control over his mouth and his anus: referring to him who has drunk medicine or become intoxicated. (AO, ISk, S, O, K.) b9: And فُلَانٌ فَاسِدُ الطَّرَفِيْنِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is corrupt in respect of the tongue and the فَرْج. (TA.) b10: And لَا يَدْرِى أَىُّ طَرَفَيْهِ أَطْوَلُ, (in the CK يُدْرَى,) [He will not, or does not, know which of his two extremities is the longer,] meaning (tropical:) his ذَكَر and his tongue; (S, O, K, TA;) whence طَرَفٌ is used as signifying (assumed tropical:) the tongue: (TA:) or the meaning is, as some say, (assumed tropical:) which of his two halves is the longer; the lower or the upper: (TA:) or (assumed tropical:) the lineage of his father or that of his mother (O, K, TA) in respect of generosity, or nobility: (O, TA:) i. e., which of his two parents is the more generous, or noble: so says Fr. (TA.) b11: كَرِيمُ الطَّرَفَيْنِ means (tropical:) Generous, or noble, [on both sides, i. e.] in respect of male and female ancestors. (S, O, TA.) b12: And أَطْرَافٌ means also (assumed tropical:) A man's father and mother and brothers and paternal uncles and any relations whom it is unlawful for him to marry. (Az, S, O, K.) b13: And (assumed tropical:) Noble, or exalted, men: (Th, S:) or أَطْرَافُ الأَرْضِ means (tropical:) the noble, or exalted, men, and the learned men, of the earth, or land: (O, K, TA:) one of whom is termed طَرَفٌ, or ↓ طِرْفٌ. (O, See the latter of these words.) And hence, as some explain it, the saying in the Kur [xiii. 41, like one in xxi. 45], أَوَلَمْ يَرَوْا أَنَّا نَأْتِى الْأَرْضَ نَنْقُصُهَا مِنْ أَطْرَافِهَا (assumed tropical:) [Have they not seen that we visit, or bring destruction upon, the land, curtailing it of its learned men?]; the meaning being, the death of its learned men: (O, TA:) or, as some say, [curtailing it of its inhabitants and its fruits; for they say that] the meaning is, the death of its inhabitants and the diminution of its fruits: (TA:) or it means, curtailing it of its sides, or districts, one by one: (Az, O, L:) Ibn-'Arafeh says that the meaning is, we lay open by conquest, to the Prophet, (نَفْتَحُ عَلَى النَّبِىِّ,) the country around Mekkeh. (O, TA.) [b14: أَطْرَافُ النَّاسِ also means (assumed tropical:) The lower orders of the people: but this I believe to be post-classical.] b15: طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ, in the Kur 11:114, means غُدْوَةً وَعَشِيَّةً [i. e. Morning and afternoon]; by the former being meant daybreak; and by the latter, noon and the عَصْر [q. v.], (Ksh, Bd,) or the عَصْر [only]. (Bd.) And أَطْرَافَ النَّهَارِ, in the Kur 20:130, means At daybreak and at sunset: (Ksh, Bd:) or at noon and at the عَصْر; so says Zj: or, accord. to IAar, in the hours (سَاعَات) of the day: Abu-l-'Abbás says that it means طَرَفَىِ النَّهَارِ. (TA.) b16: [عَلَى طَرَفٍ often occurs as meaning Beside, aside, or apart; like على جَانِبٍ, and على نَاحِيَةٍ: and in like manner the Persians say بَرْ طَرَفْ. b17: and مِنْ طَرَفِ فُلَانٍ is often used as meaning On the part of such a one; but is perhaps post-classical.] b18: And you say, لِلْأَمْرِ طَرَفَانِ [meaning (assumed tropical:) There are two ways of performing the affair, either of which may be chosen; as though it had two ends, or two sides]. (TA voce صَرْعٌ.) And جَعَلَهُ مُطْلَقَ الطَّرَفَيْنِ (assumed tropical:) [He made it allowable, or free, in respect of both the alternatives, either way one might choose to take]. (Msb in art. بوح.) b19: [And hence, perhaps,] طَرَفٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) Anything chosen or choice: pl. أَطْرَافٌ: [whence]

أَطْرَافُ الحَدِيثِ means (assumed tropical:) Chosen, or choice, subjects of discourse; as also الحَدِيثِ ↓ طَرَائِفُ: and أَطْرَافُ الأَحَادِيثِ means [the same, or] colloquies of friends, consisting of mutual communications, and oblique expressions, and allusions: so says ISd: and this is likewise a meaning of ↓ الطِّرَافُ and السِّبَابُ, which latter [properly signifying “ mutual reviling ”] is given in the K as an explanation of the former. (TA.) b20: Also Flesh, or flesh-meat; syn. لَحْمٌ. (TA.) طَرِفٌ, in the K ↓ طِرْف, but the former is the right, (TA,) A male camel that removes from one pasturage to another; (K, TA;) not keeping constantly to one pasturage. (TA.) And طَرِفَةٌ A she-camel that does not keep constantly to one pasturage; (S, O, K;) that depastures the extremities, or sides, of the pasturage, and tastes, and does not keep constantly to one pasturage: (Har p. 569:) or, accord. to As, that looks at the meadows (تَطْرِفُ الرِّيَاضَ), meadow after meadow [app. to pasture upon them in succession]: (TA:) and ↓ مُسْتَطْرِفَةٌ, so applied, signifies the same as طَرِفَةٌ: (TA, but not as on the authority of As:) and ↓ مِطْرَافٌ, so applied, that will not feed upon a pasturage unless she choose anew, or take the first of, (حَتَّى تَسْتَطْرِفَ,) another. (As, S, O, K.) b2: And [hence (see 10)] طَرِفٌ applied to a man signifies (assumed tropical:) That does not keep constantly to a wife, or woman, nor to a companion: (S, O, K:) and ↓ طِرْف, thus accord. to the K, (TA, [in which it is said that by rule it should be طَرِفٌ, as above,]) a man who does not keep constantly to the companionship of one person, by reason of his weariness. (K.) And ↓ مُتَطَرِّفَةٌ applied to a woman (assumed tropical:) That chooses new ones of the men (تَسْتَطْرِفُ الرِّجَالَ), not keeping constantly to a husband; as being likened to the she-camel termed طَرِفَةٌ. (Har p. 569.) A2: And طَرِفٌ, applied to a she-camel, (O, K, [but in some of the copies of the latter, where it follows next after another explanation of the epithet thus applied, mentioned above, “or,”]) accord. to IAar, Whose fore part of the head has gradually shed its hair (الَّتِى تَحَاتَّ مُقَدَّمُ الرَّأْسِ فِيهَا, O) or whose fore part of her mouth has shed its teeth one after another (التى تَحَاتَّ مُقَدَّمُ فِيهَا, K) by reason of extreme age. (O, K. [See 2, last sentence.]) A3: Also, and ↓ طَريفٌ (assumed tropical:) Contr. of قُعْدُدٌ; (S, M, K, TA;) i. e., as the latter is further expl. in the S, and each in the M, having many ancestors, up to the greatest [i. e. most remote] forefather; and J adds that sometimes it is used in praise: thus also As explains النَّسَبِ ↓ طَرِيفُ: accord. to IAar, طَرِيفٌ signifies منحدر فى النَّسَبِ [app. مُنْحَدِرٌ, as though meaning of long descent]; and he says that it is with the Arabs more noble than قُعْدُدٌ: the pl. of طَرِفٌ as meaning the contr. of قُعْدُدٌ is طَرِفُونَ; and the pl. of ↓ طَرِيفٌ in the same sense is طُرُفٌ and طُرَفٌ and طُرَّافٌ, the second and third of which pls. are anomalous. (TA.) b2: [طَرِفٌ seems also to have the contr. meaning; or (assumed tropical:) One whose nobility is recent: and the like is said of قُعْدُدٌ; that it has two contr. meanings:] see طِرْفٌ.

طَرْفَةٌ [A wink, i. e.] a closing of one of the eyelids upon the other: (S, O, K:) or [a twinkling of the eye, i. e.] a putting the eyelids in motion or in a state of commotion. (K.) One says أَسْرَعُ مِنْ طَرْفَةِ عَيْنٍ [Quicker than a wink, or a twinkling of an eye]. (S, O.) And مَا يُفَارِقُنِى طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ [He does not separate himself from me during a wink, or a twinkling of an eye]. (TA.) b2: Also A red spot of blood, in the eye, occasioned by a blow or some other cause. (S, O, K.) b3: And A brand, or mark made with a hot iron, having to it no أَطْرَاف [or sides, or lateral portions], being only a line. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) A2: And الطَّرْفَةُ A certain star or asterism (نَجْمٌ). (K. [There thus mentioned as though different from the asterism commonly called الطَّرْفُ, which I do not believe to be the case: see the latter appellation.]) طُرْفَةٌ A hurt of the eye, occasioning its shedding tears. (K.) A2: And Newly-acquired property; (S, O, K;) anything that one has newly acquired, and that pleases him; as also ↓ أُطْرُوفَةٌ; (TA;) a thing newly acquired; (Har p. 54;) and a thing that is strange and deemed good; (Id. p.

615;) [a pleasing rarity;] a welcome, or pleasing, thing; (KL;) and a gift not given to any one before; (K, * TA;) and a gift of which the recipient did not possess the like, and which pleases him; (TA;) [generally, a novel, or rare, and pleasing, present; like تُرْفَةٌ and تُحْفَةٌ:] pl. طُرَفٌ. (Har p. 32.) [See also طَرِيفٌ and طَرِيفَةٌ.]

طَرَفَةٌ A single tree of the species called طَرْفَآء, q. v. (AHn, S, O, K.) طُرْفَى Remoteness in lineage from the [chief, or oldest,] ancestor: قُعْدَى is nearer therein. (IB, TA.) [See طَرِفٌ.]

طَرْفَآء [accord. to some طَرْفَآءٌ and accord. to others طَرْفَآءُ, as will be seen from what follows,] A kind of trees, (S, O, K,) of which there are four species, one of these being the أَثْل [q. v.]: (K:) [or it is different from the أَثْل: the name is now generally applied to the common, or French, tamarisk; tamarix gallica of Linn.: (Forskål's Flora Aegypt. Arab. p. lxiv. no. 181; and Delile's Floræ Aegypt. Illustr. no. 349:)] AHn says, it is of the kind called عِضَاه; its هَدَب [q. v.] are like those of the أَثْل; it has no wood fit for carpentry, coming forth only as even and smooth rods towards the sky; and sometimes the camels eat it as حَمْض [q. v.] when they find no other حَمْض: AA, he adds, says that it is a sort of حَمْض: (TA:) the n. un. is ↓ طَرَفَةٌ, (AHn, S, O, K,) [which is irreg.,] and طَرْفَآءَةٌ, (AHn, O, K, [in the CK, erroneously, طَرْفَاةٌ,]) [and this requires طَرْفَآء to be with tenween, as a coll. gen. n.,] or, accord. to Sb, طَرْفَآء is sing. and pl.: (S, O:) or it is a pl. [or quasi-pl. n.] of طَرَفَةٌ, like as شَجْرَآءُ is of شَجَرَةٌ: (S in art. شجر: [see شَجَرٌ:]) or it is coll. gen. n.: accord. to IJ, the ء in طَرْفَآء is a denotative of the fem. gender; but in طَرْفَآءَةٌ, the ة is a denotative of the fem. gender, and the ء is augmentative. (M, TA.) b2: Also A place of growth of the طَرَفَة. (TA.) طِرَافٌ The portion that is taken [app. meaning cut] from the extremities (أَطْرَاف) of corn, or seed-produce. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) b2: تَوَارَثُوا المَجْدَ طِرَفًا means عَنْ شَرَفٍ [i. e. They inherited, one after another, glory from nobility of ancestry]. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) b3: See also طَرِيفٌ. b4: and see طَرَفٌ, last sentence but one.

(TA, from IAar.) b3: See also طَرِفٌ, latter part, in three places.

Hence, طَرَائِفُ البَيْتِ The choice articles, such as vessels &c., of the house: see رَفٌّ. And hence also,] طَرَائِفُ الحَدِيثِ: see طَرَفٌ, last sentence but one.

(S, O, K, TA.) b3: The phrase مَا أَبْرَزَتْهُ طَوَارِفُ القَرَائِحِ, in which طَوَارِفُ is pl. of طَارِفَةٌ, from طَارِفٌ signifying property “ newly acquired,” means مَا

مُطْرِفٌ [act. part. n. of 4, q. v.]. b2: أَنْشِدِ البَيْتَيْنِ المُطْرِفَيْنِ, a phrase used by El-Hareeree, means Recite thou the two verses that adduce what is strange, or extraordinary, and approved, or deemed good: or, as some relate it, ↓ المُطْرَفَيْنِ, expl. by Mtr as meaning that are ornamented at their two extremities; like the رِدَآء called مُطْرَف: or ↓ المُطَرَّفَيْنِ, meaning, if correctly related, that are beautified, and excite admiration, in the first and last foot; as being likened to the horse termed مُطَرَّفٌ, that is white in the head and the tail: and المطرّفين [i. e. المُطَرَّفَيْنِ] may mean المستطرفين [i. e. المُسْتَطْرَفَيْنِ]. (Har p. 615: in the next p. of which, an ex. is given.) b3: See also طَرِيفٌ.

مِطْرَفٌ (S, O, L, Msb, TA) and ↓ مُطْرَفٌ, (S, O, L, Msb, K, TA,) the latter, only, mentioned in the K, (TA,) and this is the original form, because it is from أَطْرِفَ, but the dammeh was deemed difficult of pronunciation, and therefore kesreh was substituted for it, (Fr, S, O, TA,) like as is the case in مِصْحَفٌ [q. v.], (Fr, TA,) and IAth mentions also ↓ مَطْرَفٌ, (TA,) A garment, (Msb,) or [such as is termed] رِدَآء, (S, O, K,) of [the kind of cloth called] خَزّ, (S, O, Msb, K,) square, or four-sided, (S, O, K,) having ornamental or coloured or figured, borders (أَعْلَام): (S, O, Msb, K:) or a garment having, in its two ends, or sides, (فِى طَرَفَيْهِ,) two such borders (عَلَمَانِ): (Fr, TA:) or a square, or four-sided, garment of خَزّ: (Msb:) pl. مَطَارِفُ. (S, O, Msb, K.) b2: مَطَارِفُ is also applied to (assumed tropical:) Clouds [as being likened to the garments thus called]. (TA in art. دكن.) b3: See also طَرِيفٌ.

مُطَرَّفٌ A horse white in the head and the tail, the rest of him being of a different colour: and in like manner black in the head and the tail. (S, O, K.)

And شَاةٌ مُطَرَّفَةٌ A sheep or goat black in the end of the tail, in other parts white: (S, O, K:) or white in the ends of the ears, and for the rest part black: or black in the ends of the ears, and for the rest part white. (TA.) b2: See also مُطْرِفٌ. And see سَجْعٌ. b3: In a verse of Sá'ideh the Hudhalee, as some relate it, but accord. to others it is مُطَرِّف [q. v.], (O, TA,) describing a horse, (O,) it signifies مُرَدَّدٌ فِى الكَرَمِ [app. meaning Repeatedly improved in generosity by descent from a number of generous sires and dams].

مُطَرِّفٌ A man who fights around the army: (O, K, TA: [see 2, second sentence:]) or, as some say, who fights the أَطْرَاف [app. meaning noble, or exalted, pl. of طَرَفٌ q. v., or of طِرْفٌ,] of men. (TA.) b2: In a verse of Sá'ideh the Hudhalee, (O, TA,) describing a horse, (O,) that repels those that form the side, or flank, of the horses and of the [hostile] company of men: but as some relate it, the word is مُطَرَّف [q. v.]. (O, TA.) مِطْرَافٌ: see طَرِفٌ, former half.

مَطْرُوفٌ [pass. part. n. of طَرَفَ, q. v.]. Yousay, فُلَانٌ مَطْرُوفُ العَيْنِ بِفُلَانٍ, meaning Such a one is, exclusively of others, looked at by such a one. (S, O.) b2: And عَيْنٌ مَطْرُوفَةٌ An eye of which the lids are put in motion or in a state of commotion, by looking. (As, TA.) [And] An eye, hit, struck, smitten, or hurt, with a thing, so that it sheds tears. (S, O, K.) And ↓ طَرِيفٌ applied to an eye signifies the same as مَطْرُوفَةٌ [in one of these senses, but in which of them is not said]. (TA.) b3: مَطْرُوفَةٌ applied to a woman means As though her eye were hit, struck, smitten, or hurt, with something, (O, and EM p. 83,) so that it shed tears, (O,) by reason of the languish of her look; (EM ibid;) and this is said to be its meaning in the saying of Tarafeh, إِذَا نَحْنُ قُلْنَا أَسْمِعِينَا انْبَرَتْ لَنَا عَلَى رِسْلِهَا مَطْرُوفَةً لَمْ تَشَدَّد (O, EM,) i. e. When we say, “Sing thou to us,”

she betakes herself to us in her gentle way, as though her eye were hurt by something, by reason of the languish of her look, not straining herself in her singing; but as some relate the verse, the word is مَطْرُوقَةً, meaning “ weakly: ” (EM:) or it means whose eye the love of men has smitten, so that she raises her eyes and looks at every one that looks at her; as though a طَرْفَة [or red spot of blood], or a stick or the like, hurt her eye: (Az, TA:) or having a languishing eye; as though it were turned away, or back, (طُرِفَتٌ,) from everything at which it looked: (IAar, TA:) or as though her eye were turned away, or back so that it, or she, is still: (TA:) or (assumed tropical:) who looks at the men (تَطْرِفُ الرِّجَالَ); i. e. (assumed tropical:) who does not keep constantly to one; the pass. part. n. being put in the place of the act.; but Az says that this explanation is at variance with the original purport of the word: (TA:) or مَطْرُوفَةٌ بِالرِّجَال means (tropical:) a woman who raises, or stretches and raises, her eye at men, (S, O, K, TA,) and turns away her look from her husband, to others, (S, TA, *) and in whom is no good: (TA:) or (assumed tropical:) who looks not at any but the men; (K;) or مَطْرُوفَةُ العَيْنِ بِالرِّجَالِ has this meaning. (AA, TA.) A2: أَرْضٌ مَطْرُوفَةٌ Land abounding with the herbage called طَرِيفَة. (S, O, K.) مُطَّرَفٌ A camel newly purchased: (S:) or purchased from another part of the country, and therefore yearning for his accustomed place. (IB, TA.) مُتَطَرِّفٌ A man who does not, or will not, keep constantly to an affair; [but I think that امر (which I have rendered “ an affair ”) in my original is evidently a mistranscription for امْرَأَة, i. e. a woman, or wife;] as also ↓ مُسْتَطْرِفٌ. (TA.) See also طَرِفٌ.

مُسْتَطْرَفٌ: see طَرِيفٌ. b2: فَعَلْتُهُ فِى مُسْتَطْرَفِ الأَيَّامِ I did it in the first, or first part, of the days; (فى مُسْتَأْنَفِهَا;) as also الايّام ↓ فى مُطَرَّفِ. (S, O, K.) مُسْتَطْرِفٌ: see مُتَطَرِّفٌ. See also طَرِفٌ.

قص

1 قَصَّهُ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. قَصٌّ, (M, Msb,) He cut it; (S, Msb;) or he clipped it, or shore it, or cut off from it; (A, K;) namely, hair, (S, M, A, K,) and wool, (M,) and plumage, (A,) and a nail of a finger or toe; (M, K;) with the مِقَصّ, q. v.: (A, K:) as also ↓ قصّصهُ, (M, A,) and, by permutation, قَصَّاهُ: (M:) or these two forms have an intensive signification: or you say, الظُّفْرَ وَنَحْوَهُ ↓ قَصَّيْتُ, meaning, I pared the nail and the like. (Msb.) b2: Also, He (a weaver) cut off from it, namely, a garment, or piece of cloth, its unwoven end, or extremity, consisting of warp without woof. (M.) b3: And He cut off the extremities of his ears. (IAar, M.) قُصِّيهِ occurs in a trad., as meaning, Take thou from the extremities of his ears. (TA.) [But this may be from the root قصو, q. v.] b4: And [hence,] قَصَّ اللّٰهُ خَطَايَاهُ (assumed tropical:) God diminished, or took or deducted from, [the account of] his sins. (TA, from a trad.) A2: قَصَّ أَثَرَهُ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (M, TA,) inf. n. قَصَصٌ, (S, M, A, O, L, K,) in [some of] the copies of the K قَصِيصٌ, but the former is the right, (TA,) and قَصٌّ, (T, M, K,) He followed, or followed after, his track, or footsteps, in pursuit; endeavoured to trace him, or track him; (S, M, A, Msb, K, &c.;) or he did so by degrees: (TA:) or by night: or at any time: (M, TA:) which last is the correct explanation: (TA:) and قَصَّهُ signifies the same, (A, TA,) and so اثره ↓ اقتصّ, (S, K,) and اثره ↓ تقصّص: (S, M, K:) and قَسَّ is a dial. form of the same. (TA.) You say, خَرَجَ فُلَانٌ قَصَصًا فِى أَثَرِ فُلَانٍ Such a one went forth following, or following after, the footsteps of such a one, in pursuit. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [xviii. 63,] (S,) فَارْتَدَّا عَلَى آثَارِهِمَا قَصَصًا (S, K) And they both returned by the way by which they had come, retracing their footsteps. (K, TA.) b2: [And hence,] قَصَّ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرَ, (S, M, Msb, * K, *) and الحَدِيثَ, and الرُّؤْيَا, (A,) aor. ـُ (M, TA,) inf. n. قَصَصٌ, (M, TA,) or this is a subst. put in the place of the inf. n. so that it has become predominant over it, (S,) and قَصٌّ, (M, TA,) or the latter only is the inf. n., and the former is [only] a subst., (Msb,) He related to him the piece of news, or information, (S, M, Msb,) and the tradition, or story, and the dream, (A,) in its proper manner (عَلَى وَجْهِهِ): (S, Msb:) or he made it known [to him]: (K:) and الحَدِيثَ ↓ اقتصّ he related the tradition, or story, in its proper manner (عَلَى وَجْهِهِ); (S, K, TA;) as though he followed its traces, in pursuit, and related it accordingly: (TA:) [i. e., he pursued the course of the tradition, or story:] and الخَبَرَ ↓ تقصّص he pursued, or sought after, the particulars of the news, or information, gradually, and deliberately. (M.) قَصَّ is also said to signify He recited, or delivered, a [discourse such as is termed] خُطْبَة. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [xii. 3,] نَحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ أَحْسَنَ القَصَصِ We explain unto thee with the best explanation: (K, TA:) or, as some say, قَصٌّ is the inf. n. of the verb used in this sense, and قَصَصٌ is a subst. [syn. with قِصَّةٌ, q. v.]. (TA.) And in a trad. respecting the Children of Israel it is said, لَمَّا قَصُّوا هَلَكُوا: or لَمَّا هَلَكُوا قَصُّوا: accord. to different relations: meaning, When they relied upon words, and neglected works, they perished: or when they perished, by neglecting works, they inclined to, and relied upon, stories. (TA.) A3: قَصَّهُ المَوْتُ, and قَصَّهُ عَلَى المَوْتِ, or مِنَ المَوْتِ: see 4.2 قصّصهُ and قَصَّاهُ: see I, first signification.

A2: قصّص, (S,) inf. n. تَقْصِيصٌ, (A, K,) He plastered, or built, (TA,) a house, (S, K, TA,) and a tomb, which it is forbidden to do, (A, TA,) with gypsum; (TA;) syn. جَصَّصَ: (S, K:) of the dial. of El-Hijáz. (TA, art. جص.) 3 قاصّهُ, (Msb,) inf. n. مُقَاصَّةٌ (A, Mgh, Msb) and قِصَاصٌ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) [which latter is the more common,] He (the relation of a slain man, A, Mgh, TA, or one who has been wounded, Mgh, [or mutilated,]) retaliated upon him by slaying him, or wounding him, (S, * Mgh, Msb, K,) or mutilating him, (S, * Msb, K, *) so as to make him quit, or even, with him. (Mgh.) See also 8. b2: Hence, (A, Mgh,) (tropical:) He made him quit, or even, with himself: used in a general way. (Mgh.) You say, قاصّ صَاحِبَهُ, (S, Mgh, Msb, * K,) inf. ns. as above, (Msb,) (tropical:) He made his fellow quit, or even, with him, (Mgh,) in a reckoning, (S, Mgh, K,) or other thing, (S, K,) by withholding from him the like of what the latter owed to him; (Mgh;) he made a debt which his fellow owed him to be as a requital of a like debt which he owed his fellow: [but Fei adds,] this is taken from إِقْتِصَاصُ الأَثَرِ: and hence the former signification, relating to retaliation of slaughter and wounding and mutilation, which, however, is the predominant signification. (Msb.) You say also, قَاصَصْتُهُ بِمَا كَانَ لِى قَبْلَهُ, [or, more probably, قِبَلَهُ, or perhaps عَلَيْهِ,] (tropical:) I withheld from him the like of what he owed me. (A, TA.) ISd says, (TA,) The phrase قُوصَّ زَيْدٌ مَا عَلَيْهِ has been mentioned; and means, in my opinion, (assumed tropical:) Zeyd was reckoned with for what he owed: though made trans. without a particle, as implying the meaning of أُغْرِمَ and the like. (M, TA.) 4 اقصّهُ, inf. n. إِقْصَاصٌ, He retaliated for him; (M;) as also ↓ اقتصّهُ; (A; [so in a copy of that work; but I think it is a mistake for اقصّهُ, or for اقتصّ لَهُ, q. v.]) or اقتصّ مِنْهُ. (TA [but this seems to be a mistake for اقتصّ لَهُ.]) You say, اقصّ فُلَانًا مِنْ فُلَانٍ He (a governor, or prince,) retaliated for such a one upon such a one, (S, K,) by wounding the latter like as he had wounded the former, (S, Msb, K,) or by slaying the latter for the slaughter of the former; (S, K;) and the like. (TA.) b2: اقصّ الرَّجُلُ مِنُ نَفْسِهِ The man gave power, or authority, to retaliate upon himself, (K, TA,) by doing to him the like of that which he had done, whether it be slaughter or mutilation or beating or wounding. (TA.) [Whence the saying,] أَقْصَصْتُكَ الجُرْحَةَ (tropical:) I authorize thee to adduce anything whereby to invalidate the testimony. (A, * TA, art. جرح.) A2: ضَرَبَهُ حَتَّى أَقَصَّهُ مِنَ المَوْتِ, (S, K,) and عَلَى المَوْتِ ↓ قَصَّهُ, (K,) He beat him until he made him to be near to death: (S, K:) and Fr used to say, ضربه حتّى

أَقَصَّهُ المَوْتَ [meaning as above]. (S.) You say [also], أَقْصَصْتُهُ عَلَى المَوْتِ [I made him to be near to death]. (M.) And a poet says, فَقَدْ أَقْصَصْتَ أُمَّكَ بِالْهُزَالِ meaning, Thou hast made thy mother to be near to death. (TA.) b2: Fr also said, (S,) المَوْتُ ↓ قَصَّهُ and أَقَصَّهُ المَوْتُ [in the L and TA قَصَّهُ مِنَ المَوْتِ and أَقَصَّهُ مِنْهُ, which seems to be a mistranscription,] both signifying Death became near to him: (S, K:) or he became at the point of death, and then escaped; (TA;) and so أَقَصَّتْهُ شَعُوبُ: (M:) and أَقَصَّ على المَوْتِ he became at the point of death. (M.) 5 تقصّص and تَقَصَّى: see 8.

A2: تقصّص أَثَرَهُ: see قَصَّ اثره. b2: تقصّص الخَبَرَ: see قَصَّ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرَ. b3: تقصّص كَلَامَهُ He preserved in his memory his speech, or discourse. (Az, M, K.) 6 تقاصّوا They made themselves quits, or even, one with another, by retaliation, (M, TA,) slaying for slaying, or wounding for wounding. (M.) A poet says, فَرُمْنَا القِصَاصَ وَكَانَ التَّقَاص صُ حُكْمًا وَعَدْلًا عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَا [And we sought retaliation so as to make a party quit, or even, with us; for people's making themselves quits, or even, one with another, by retaliation, is a statute, and an act of justice, appointed to the Muslims]: in which التَّقَاصُّ is an instance of a deviation from a general rule, as it presents two quiescent letters together in poetry; wherefore some relate it differently, saying, القِصَاصُ: and there is no other instance of the kind excepting one verse cited by Akh: وَلَوْلَا خِدَاشٌ أَخَدْتُ دَوَاب بَ سَعْدٍ وَلَمْ أَعْطِهِ مَا عَلَيْهَا but Aboo-Is-hák thinks, that, if this verse be genuine, the right reading is دَوَابِبَ سَعْدٍ, as the making the duplication of a letter distinct is allowable in poetry; or رَوَاحِلَ سَعْدٍ. (M, TA.) This is the primary signification of the verb. (TA.) b2: and hence, (A, * Mgh, * TA,) [or, accord. to Fei, the reverse is the case, (see 3,)] (tropical:) They made themselves quits, or even, one with another, in a reckoning, (S, A, Mgh, K,) or other thing (S, A, K) one withholding from another the like of what the latter owed him. (Mgh.) 8 اقتصّ It (hair [or the like]) was, or became, cut, or clipped, or shorn, (M, TA,) with the مِقَصّ; (TA;) as also ↓ تقصّص and تَقَصَّى. (M, TA.) A2: اقتصّ أَثَرَهُ: see قَصَّ اثره. b2: اقتصّ الحَدِيثَ: see قَصَّ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرَ.

A3: He retaliated, slaying for slaying, or wounding for wounding. (M.) Yousay, اقتصّ لِفُلَانٍ مِنْ فُلَانٍ (S, A, K) He retaliated for such a one upon such a one, by wounding the latter like as he had wounded the former, or by slaying the latter for the slaughter of the former, (S, K, TA,) and the like; (TA;) as also مِنْهُ ↓ أَقَصَّهُ. (S, K.) [See the latter verb, first signification.] And ↓ أَفَصَّهُ, inf. n. إِقْصَاصٌ, signifies [also] He (the Sultán) slew him in retaliation. (Msb.) b2: اِقْتِصَاصٌ, as a subst., [i. e., having no verb corresponding to the signification here following, though I do not see how this can be asserted, for one may certainly say اُقْتُصَّ مِنْهُ,] also signifies The being done to like as one has done, whether it be slaughter or mutilation or beating or wounding. (TA.) b3: See also 10.10 استقصّ He sought, or demanded, retaliation, i. e., slaying for slaying, or wounding for wounding. (M.) b2: استقصّهُ He asked of him to retaliate for him: (S, A, Msb, K:) and ↓ اقتصّهُ signifies the same accord. to the K; but the author has been misled into saying this by misunderstanding the following passage in the O; تقصّص اثره مثل قَصَّهُ واقتصّهُ واستقصّهُ سَأَلَهُ أَنْ يُقِصَّهُ, in which واقتصّه terminates a clause. (TA.) قَصٌّ (M, K) and ↓ قَصَصٌ (M, TA) What is cut, or clipped, or shorn, of the wool of a sheep. (M, K, TA.) See also قُصَاصَةٌ.

A2: Also, both words, (S, M, A, K,) and ↓ قَصْقَصٌ (M, TA) The breast (M, A, K) of anything: (M:) or the head thereof, (S, K,) called in Persian سر سينه [i. e.

سَرْسِينَهْ, applied to the pit at the head of the breast]; and such is the قَصَص of the sheep or goat, &c.: (S:) or the middle thereof: (M, K:) or the bone thereof, (M, K,) of a man or other animal; (TA;) [i. e. the sternum;] the soft bone into which are set the cartilaginous ends of the [seven upper pairs of the] ribs, in the middle of the breast: (Lth, TA:) pl. قِصَاصٌ [a reg. pl. of the first]. (K.) Hence the saying, هُوَ أَلْزَمُ لَكَ مِنْ شُعَيْرَاتِ قَصِّكَ, (S,) or هُوَ أَلْزَمُ بِكَ مِنْ شَعَرَاتِ قَصِّكَ, and ↓ قَصَصِكَ, (M, TA,) [He is more closely adherent to thee than the little hairs, or the hairs, of thy breast, &c.:] because as often as they are cut they grow [afresh]: (As, TA:) meaning, he will not separate himself from thee, nor canst thou cast him from thee: applied to him who denies his relation: and also to him who denies a due that is incumbent on him.
