شمل

1 شَمِلَهُمُ الأَمْرُ, aor. ـَ and شَمَلَهُم, aor. ـُ (S, Msb, K;) but the latter verb was unknown to As, (S, TA,) and is said by Lh to be rare; (TA;) inf. n. شَمَلٌ, (Msb, K,) which is of the former, (Msb,) and شُمُولٌ, (Msb, K,) and شَمْلٌ; (K;) i. q. عَمَّهُمْ [i. e. The event, or case, included them in common, in general, or universally, within the compass of its effect or effects, its operation or operations, its influence, or the like]: (S, Msb, K:) or شَمِلَهُمْ خَيْرًا or شَرًّا, or خَيْرًا and شَرًّا, (accord. to different copies of the K,) like فَرِحَ, (in the CK, or like فَرِحَ,) [app. means he, or it, caused that] good or evil, or good and evil, betided them [in common, in general, or universally]: and شَرًّا ↓ أَشْمَلَهُمْ [means] عَمَّهُمْ بِهِ [i. e. he, or it, included them in common, in general, or universally, with, or by, evil]: (K:) but one should not say, اشملهم خَيْرًا. (TA.) [Whether what precedes, or what next follows, should be regarded as giving the primary signification of شَمِلَ, is uncertain.] b2: شَمِلَهُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. شَمْلٌ and شُمُولٌ, He covered [or enveloped] him with the شَمْلَة, (K, TA,) or, with the مِشْمَلَة: such is thought by ISd to be meant by the explanation given by Lh, which is, غَطَّى عَلَيْهِ الــمِشْمَلَةَ. (TA.) b3: هٰذِهِ شَمْلَةٌ تَشْمَلُكَ means تَسَعُكَ [i. e. This is a شملة sufficient in its dimensions, or sufficiently large, for thee]. (TA.) You say, اِشْتَرَيْتُ شَمْلَةً ثَشْمَلُنِى [I bought a شملة sufficient in its dimensions, &c., for me]. (ISk, S, O.) b4: شَمِلَتْ لِقَاحًا, aor. ـَ (S, O, K,) inf. n. شَمَلٌ, (S, O,) said of a she-camel, (S, O, K,) She admitted impregnating seed, (K,) or she conceived, مِنْ فَحْلِ فُلَانٍ, [from the stallion of such a one]. (S, O.) b5: شَمِلَتْ إِبِلُكُمْ بَعِيرًا لَنَا Your camels concealed among them a he-camel belonging to us, by his entering amid their dense multitude: (K, TA:) so in the M and the Moheet. (TA.) A2: شَمَلَ الشَّاةَ, aor. ـُ (S, K) and شَمِلَ, (K,) inf. n. شَمْلٌ, (S,) He suspended upon the ewe, or she-goat, the kind of bag called شِمَال, and bound it upon her udder: (S, * K, TA:) and some say, شَمَلَ النَّاقَةَ, he suspended a شِمَال upon the she-camel. (T, TA.) Also, and ↓ اشملها, He put to the ewe, or she-goat, (K, TA,) or he made for her, (TA,) a شِمَال. (K, TA.) A3: شَمَلَ بِهِ, (K, TA,) inf. n. شَمْلٌ, (TA,) He took [in it, i. e. in travelling it, (see the pass. part. n.,)] the direction of the left hand; syn. أَخَذَ ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ: (K, TA:) so expl. by IAar.

(O. [In the TA, I find أَشْمَلَت الريح ذهبت شماليل مثل شَمَّلت: but this, I doubt not, is a mistranscription of the passage in the O, which I have here followed; i. e. أَشْمَلَتِ الرِيحُ هَبَّت شَمالًا مِثل شَمَلَت; or of a similar passage in which إِذَا هَبَّتْ is put instead of هَبَّتْ alone.]) One says of two persons when they are separated, شَمَلَتْ رِيحُهُمَا (assumed tropical:) [Their wind has become north, or northerly].

(K.) b4: And شُمِلُوا, (S, and in like manner in the Ham p. 595,) or شَمِلُوا, [expressly said to be] like فَرِحُوا, (K, [but this I think to be a mistake, the weight of authority, and the form of the part. n., which is مَشْمُولٌ, being against it,]) They were smitten, or blown upon, by the wind called the شَمَال. (S, K.) A4: شَمَلَ النَّخْلَةَ, (K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. شَمْلٌ, (TA,) He picked the ripe dates that were upon the palm-tree; as also ↓ اشملها, and ↓ شَمْلَلَهَا: (K:) or this last (which is mentioned on the authority of Seer), accord. to some, signifies he took of the شَمَالِيل of the palmtree; i. e., of the few dates remaining upon it.

(TA.) b3: اشمل فُلَانٌ خَرَائِفَهُ Such a one picked the ripe dates that were upon his خرائف [or palm-trees of which he gathered the fruit for himself and his household], except a few. (S, O.) b4: See also 1, last sentence.

(TA.) b2: أَشْمَلَتِ الرِّيحُ: see 1, latter half. b3: See also 7.5 تشمّل بِالشَّمْلَةِ, [and تشمّل الشَّمْلَةَ, (see 5 in art. درس,)] inf. n. تَشَمُّلٌ and ↓ تَشْمِيلٌ; (K;) the former reg.; the latter, which is mentioned by Lh, irreg., an instance like that in the saying [in the Kur lxxiii. 8], وَتَبَتَّلْ إِلَيْهِ تَبْتِيلًا; (TA;) He covered himself with the شَمْلَة [q. v.]. (K.) [See also 8.]7 انشمل i. q. شَمَّرَ, (K, TA,) or اِنْشَمَرَ, (O, TA,) [both of which signify He passed along striving, or exerting himself; and the latter signifies also he acted with a penetrative force or energy; and he hastened, or went quickly;] فِى حَاجَتِهِ [in his needful affair]. (O, TA.) And i. q. أَسْرَعَ [He hastened; went quickly; or was quick, swift, or fleet]: (K:) or so ↓ أَشْمَلَ: (thus in the O, as on the authority of IDrd:) or so ↓ اشتمل, inf. n. اشتمال: (thus accord. to my copy of the Msb:) and likewise (O, K) ↓ شَمْلَلَ, (S, O, K,) inf. n. شَمْلَلَةٌ: (S:) and so ↓ شمّل, (K,) inf. n. تَشْمِيلٌ. (TA.) And i. q. اِنْشَمَرَ (O, TA) and اِنْضَمَّ, (TA,) [both meaning It became contracted,] as used by a poet in relation to a she-camel's udder. (O, TA.) 8 اشتمل بِثَوْبِهِ He wrapped, or inwrapped, himself with his garment; syn. تَلَفَّفَ: (S, O:) or اشتمل بِالثَّوْبِ signifies he wrapped the garment around the whole of his body so that his arm, or hand, did not come forth from it: (K:) or, as some say, he wrapped himself with the garment, and threw [a part of] it upon his left side. (TA.) [See also 5.] اِشْتِمَالُ الصَّمَّآءِ, which is forbidden by the Prophet, is, accord. to As, The wrapping oneself with the garment so as to cover with it his body, not raising a side thereof in such a manner that there is in it an opening from which he may put forth his hand, or arm: (O:) this is also termed التَّلَفُّعُ: and sometimes one reclines in the state thus described: (TA:) but A 'Obeyd says, accord. to the explanation of the lawyers, it is the wrapping oneself with one garment, not having upon him another, then raising it on one side and putting it upon his shoulders: [so says Sgh; and he adds,] he who explains it thus has regard to the dislike of one's uncovering himself and exposing to view the pudenda; and he who explains it as do the lexicologists dislikes one's covering his whole body for fear of his becoming in a state in which his respiration would become obstructed so that he would perish: (O:) or it is one's covering his whole body with the كِسَآء or with the إِزَار; (S, Msb;) to which some add, not raising aught of the sides thereof. (Msb.) [See also art. صم.] One says also, يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى السَّيفِ [He wraps his garment over the sword; or] he covers the sword with his garment. (S, O.) b2: [Hence, اشتمل عَلَى كَذَا It comprehended, or comprised, such a thing.] One says, الرَّحِمُ تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى الوَلَدِ (assumed tropical:) The womb comprises [or encloses] the young. (TA.) [And in like manner one says of a woman, اشتملت مِنْهُ عَلَى وَلَدٍ (assumed tropical:) She became with child by him. And الكِتَابُ يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى كَذَا وَكَذَا (assumed tropical:) The book, or writing, comprises such and such things. And hence the phrase in grammar, بَدَلُ اشْتِمَالٍ (assumed tropical:) A substitute for an antecedent to indicate an implication therein.] b3: One says also, اشتمل عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرُ, meaning (tropical:) The event [such as a misfortune or an evil of any kind beset him, or beset him on every side, or] encompassed him; (K, TA;) like as the كِسَآء encompasses the body. (TA.) b4: One says of wine, تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى العَقْلِ فَتَمْلِكُهُ وَتَذْهَبُ بِهِ (assumed tropical:) [It compasses the intellect, and so takes possession of it, and makes away with it]: (Ham p. 555:) or تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى عَقْلِ الإِنْسَانِ فَتُغَيِّبُهُ (assumed tropical:) [It compasses the intellect of the man, and conceals it]; and thus one says of the present world or its enjoyments (الدُّنْيَا). (TA.) [اشتمل عَلَى شَىْءٍ often means (assumed tropical:) He took, or got, possession of a thing; got it, or held it, within his grasp, or in his possession.] b5: [Hence,] one says, اشتمل عَلَى نَاقَةٍ فَذَهَبَ بِهَا (assumed tropical:) He mounted a she-camel and went away with her. (Az, O.) b6: And اشتمل عَلَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) He shrouded, covered, or protected, him with himself, or his own person. (TA.) b7: See also 7 R. Q. 1 شَمْلَلَ: see 1, last sentence: A2: and see also 7.

(S, Mgh, Msb.) In imprecating evil upon enemies, (O, TA,) [or upon an enemy,] one says, شَتَّتَ اللّٰهُ شَمْلَهُمْ, (O, TA,) or فَرَّقَ اللّٰهُ شَمْلَهُمْ, (Msb,) or فرّق اللّٰه شَمْلَهُ, (S,) i. e. [May God dissolve, break up, discompose, derange, disorganize, disorder, or unsettle,] their, (Msb,) or his, (S,) united, or composed, state of affairs; (S, Msb;) and شَتَّ شَمْلُهُمْ i. e. [May their united, or composed, state of affairs &c.] become dissolved, broken up, discomposed, &c.: (O, TA:) and [in the contr. case] one says, جَمَعَ اللّٰهُ شَمْلَهُمْ, (S, O, Msb, TA,) or شَمْلَهُ, (Mgh,) i. e. [May God unite, or compose,] their, (S, Msb,) or his, (Mgh,) disunited, or discomposed, state of affairs [&c.]. (S, Mgh, Msb.) And ↓ شَمَلٌ signifies the same: El-Ba'eeth says, قَدْ يَنْعَشُ اللّٰهُ الفَتَى بَعْدَ عَثْرَةٍ

وَقَدْ يَجْمَعُ اللّٰهُ الشَّتِيتَ مِنَ الشَّمَلْ [Sometimes, or often, God raises the young man after a stumble: and sometimes, or often, God unites, or composes, what is dissolved, or broken up, of the state of affairs previously united, or composed]: (S, O:) Az cites this ex. in his “ Nawádir: ” (S:) but Aboo-'Omar El-Jarmee says that he had not heard the word thus except in this verse: (S, O:) Ibn-Buzurj, however, cites another verse as presenting an ex. of the same. (TA.) b2: دَخَلَ فِى شَمْلِهَا and ↓ شَمَلِهَا, said of a he-camel that has become concealed among a herd of [she-] camels, means He entered amid their dense multitude: (K, TA:) so in the M and the Moheet. (TA.) A2: Also, (AHn, O, K,) and so ↓ شِمْلٌ, and ↓ شِمِلٌّ, (K,) A raceme of a palm-tree: (AHn, O, K:) Et-Tirimmáh likens thereto a camel's tail: (TA:) or such as has little fruit: (K:) or of which some of the fruit has been plucked: but AO used to say that it is the produce [or spadix] of the male palm-tree, while not abundant and large. (TA.) A3: See also شَمَالٌ.

A4: And شَمْلٌ مِنْ جُنُونٍ signifies Fear, or fright, like insanity: and so ↓ شَمَلٌ [used alone, and thus written]. (TA.) شِمْلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, near the end.

شَمَلٌ: see شَمْلٌ, in two places.

A2: Also i. q. كَنَفٌ [as meaning Quarter, or shelter or protection]: الكَتِفُ in the copies of the K being a mistake for الكَنَفُ: one says, نَحْنُ فِى شَمَلِكُمْ i. e. فِى كَنَفِكُمْ [We are in your quarter, &c.]. (TA.) A3: And A small quantity (S, K) of dates upon a palm-tree (S) or of ripe dates: (K:) and of rain: (S, K:) and a small number (S, K) of men and of camels (S) or of men &c.: pl. أَشْمَالٌ: and in like manner ↓ شُمْلُولٌ [app. in all of these applications]; (K;) [or] as meaning a light quantity of fruit of the palm-tree; (TA;) and the pl. of the latter is شَمَالِيلُ: (K:) one says, مَا عَلَى النَّخْلَةِ إِلَّا شَمَلٌ and ↓ شَمَلَةٌ and ↓ شَمَالِيلُ There is not upon the palm-tree save a small quantity remaining of its fruit: (S, TA:) or ↓ مَابَقِىَ فِى النَّخْلَةِ إِلَّا شَمَلَةٌ and ↓ شَمَالِيلُ There remained not upon the palm-tree save somewhat in a sparse state [of its fruit]: (TA:) and أَصَابَنَا شَمَلٌ مِنْ مَطَرٍ A small quantity of rain fell upon us: and رَأَيْتُ شَمَلًا مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالإِبِلِ I saw a small number of men and of camels.

شَمِلٌ Wrapping, or inwrapping, himself (↓ مُشْتَمِلٌ) with a شَمْلَة [q. v.]. (TA.) A2: and Thin; syn. رَقِيقٌ: thus expl. by Sh, as applied in this sense by Ibn-Mukbil to a she-camel's tail, which he terms لِيف.

(Msb.) [See also مِشْمَالٌ.] b2: [Hence the saying,] ضَمَّ عَلَيْهِ اللَّيْلُ شَمْلَتَهُ (tropical:) [The night contracted upon him its covering of darkness]. (TA.) b3: and أُمُّ شَمْلَةَ (tropical:) The present world, or its enjoyments; syn. الدُّنْيَا: (IAar, K, TA:) so called because compassing the intellect of a man (تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى

(K, TA.) الشِمْلَةُ الصَّمَّآءُ is That [mode of wrapping oneself] which is without a shirt and without drawers beneath; in the case of which, prayer is disliked. (TA.

شَمَلٌّ: see شَمَالٌ.

شِمِلٌّ: see شَمْلٌ, near the end of the paragraph.

I lowered my left hand or arm;] شِمْلَالٌ and شِمَالٌ meaning the same. (S, O.) شَمَالٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) the most common form of the word, (Msb,) and ↓ شِمَالٌ, [a form which I think objectionable as likely to cause confusion, though it is probably the original form,] (K,) and ↓ شَمْأَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and ↓ شَمْأَلٌّ, (S, O, K, [in one place in the O erroneously written شَأمَلّ,]) and ↓ شَأْمَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) which last is formed by transposition, (S, O, Msb,) and ↓ شَامَلٌ, without ء, (MF, TA,) and ↓ شَوْمَلٌ, and ↓ شَيْمَلٌ and ↓ شَمُولٌ, (O, K,) and ↓ شَمِيلٌ, (K,) and ↓ شَمَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and ↓ شَمْلٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the last said by ISd not to have been heard except in the poetry of El-Ba'eeth, (TA,) and ↓ شَمَلٌّ, (MF, TA,) [every one of these] used as a subst. and as an epithet, (K,) [so that one says رِيحُ الشَّمَالِ &c. as well as رِيحٌ شَمَالٌ &c. and شَمَالٌ &c. alone; The north wind: or a northerly wind:] the wind that is the opposite to the جَنُوب: (Msb:) the wind that blows from the direction of the قُطْب [or pole-star]: (S:) or the wind that blows from the direction of the حِجْر [which is on what is called the north, but what is rather to be called the north-west, side of the Kaabeh]: (M, K:) or the wind that blows from the direction of the right hand of a person facing the Kibleh [by which is meant the angle of the Black Stone; i. e., correctly speaking, from the north]: (Th, M, K:) or, correctly, the wind that blows from between the place of sunrise and the constellation of the Bear (بَنَات نَعْش): or from between the place of sunrise and the place of setting of the constellation of the Eagle (النَّسْر الطَّائِر): (IAar, K:) [i. e. the wind that blows from some point of the north-east quarter, or nearly so: but it was probably thus named as being the wind that blows from the direction of the شِمَال (or left side) of a person facing the rising sun; and therefore the north wind or a northerly wind:] it seldom, or never, blows in the night: (K:) when it blows for seven days upon the people of Egypt, they prepare the graveclothes, for its nature is deadly: it is cold and dry: (TA:) [see also نَكْبَآءُ:] the pl. of شَمَالٌ is شَمَالَاتٌ (S, O, K) and شَمَائِلُ, which is anomalous, as though pl. of شَمَالَةٌ: (S, O:) الأَشَامِل also occurs, coupled with الأَجَانِب, in a verse of Et-Tirimmáh; and [as أَجَانِبُ is a reg. pl. of أَجْنُبٌ, which is a pl. of جَنُوبٌ,] ISd thinks that they formed from شَمْلٌ the pl. أَشْمَلٌ; and then from this last, the pl. أَشَامِلُ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] one says, ↓ أَصَبْتُ مِنْ فُلَانٍ شَمَلًا i. e. رِيحًا [(assumed tropical:) I perceived from such a one an odour, app. meaning a foul odour]. (TA.) شِمَالٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) applied to one of the hands or arms, (S, Msb,) The left; contr. of يَمِينٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ شِيمَالٌ, (K, TA, [in the CK, الشَّمال and الشّمال are erroneously put for الشِّمَال and الشِّيمَال,]) the latter thought by ISd to be used only by poetic license, for شِمَالٌ, (TA,) and ↓ شِمْلَالٌ, (AA, S, O, K,) this last not known to Ks nor to As: (TA:) of the fem. gender: (S, O, Msb:) pl. [of pauc.] أَشْمُلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) because it is fem., (S, O,) and [of mult.] شَمَائِلُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) which is anomalous, (S, O,) and شُمُلٌ, and شِمَالٌ like the sing. (K.) b2: And The direction [or side] of the hand so called: you say, اِلْتَفَتَ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا i. e. [He looked, or turned his face,] in the direction of the يمين and in the direction of the شمال: and the pl. in this sense also is أُشْمُلٌ and شَمَائِلُ: (Msb:) you say, ذَهَبَ إِلَى أَيْمُنِ الإِبِلِ وَأَشْمُلِهَا He went to the right sides of the camels and the left sides thereof. (TA in art. يمن.) b3: [Hence,] (tropical:) Ill luck, unluckiness, or evil fortune. (K, TA.) طَيْرُ الشِّمَالِ means (tropical:) Birds of ill luck: (A, TA:) every bird from which one augurs evil. (O, TA.) One says, جَرَى لَهُ غُرَابُ شِمَالٍ, meaning (assumed tropical:) What was disliked, or hated, happened to him: as though the bird [to which this is likened] came to him from the شِمَال [or direction of the left hand]. (TA.) And when the place that a person occupies is rendered evil, one says, فُلَانٌ عِنْدِى

بِالشِّمَالِ (assumed tropical:) [Such a one is with me, or in my estimation, in an evil plight].

A3: And A mark made with a hot iron (سِمَةٌ) upon the udder of a ewe or goat. (K.) A4: Also A nature; or a natural disposition or temper or the like: (O, Msb, K:) accord. to Er-Rághib, so called because [it is as though it were a thing] inwrapping the man [and restricting his freedom of action], like as the [garments called]

شِمَال [pl. of شَمْلَةٌ] inwrap the body: (TA:) the pl. is شَمَائِلُ, (O, K, TA,) and شِمَالٌ, also, [which seems to be rarely used as a sing. in this sense,] may be a pl., like دِلَاصٌ. (TA; and Ham p. 489, q. v.) 'Abd-Yaghooth El-Hárithee says, أَلَمْ تَعْلَمَا أَنَّ المَلَامَةَ نَفْعُهَا قَلِيلٌ وَمَا لَوْمِى أَخِىمِنْ شِمَالِيَا [Know not ye two that the utility of censure is little, and my censuring my brother is not of my nature, or of my natural dispositions?]: (O, TA:) here it may be a pl., of the class of هِجَانٌ and دِلَاصٌ: or it may be [شَمَالِيَا,] an instance of transposition, for شَمَائِلِى.

Yousay, ضُرِبَ فُلَانٌ فَغَوَّثَ Such a one was beaten, and cried وا غوثاه. (TA.) This is declared by the leading grammarians to be the primary signification of غوّث: then they used it as meaning He cried out, or called, desiring, or demanding, aid, or succour. (MF.) A2: See also غَوِيثٌ.4 اغاثهُ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِغَاثَةٌ (Msb, K) and ↓ مَغُوثَةٌ [which is anomalous], (K,) He aided, or succoured, him; (Msb;) He (i. e.

(TA.) And one says also, أَغَاثَنَا المَطَرُ (assumed tropical:) [The rain gave us relief]. (Msb.) 6 تَغَاوَثُوا, accord. to Freytag, appears to be used in the Deewán of the Hudhalees as signifying They said, one to another, وَا غَوْثَاهُ: A2: and تغاوث as syn. with أَغَاثَ.]10 استغاثهُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and استغاث بِهِ, (O, Msb, TA,) the latter disallowed by some, but used by Sb, (TA,) He sought, desired, or demanded, aid, or succour, of, or by means of, him, or it; he sought, &c., [or called for,] his aid, or succour.

↓ دُعَآءَهُ وغُوَاثَهُ and ↓ غَوَاثَهُ [God answered his prayer, and his cry for aid]. (Fr, S.) ↓ غَوَاثٌ is said by Fr to be the only word significant of a sound, or cry, having fet-h [to the first letter]; other words of this kind being with damm, as بُكَآءٌ and دُعَآءٌ, or with kesr, as نِدَآءٌ and صِيَاحٌ.
