بِلْىٌ: and بِلْىُ سَفَرٍ: &c.: see art. بلو.

بَلَى is a particle; (S, Msb, Mughnee;) contr. of لَا: (S:) not a noun: (Sb, S:) it is a replicative; (S, Mughnee;) an affirmative of what is said [in that to which it is a reply]; (S, Msb;) [with very few exceptions] relating only to a negation, which it annuls: (Msb, Mughnee:) the final letter is a radical: or, accord. to some, the word is originally بَلْ, [after which an affirmation is to be understood,] and the final letter is augmentative: and some of these say that this letter is a denotative of the fem. gender, because it is [often] pronounced with imáleh. (Mughnee.) It is a reply to an interrogation in which is a negative, (T, M, Msb, Mughnee, K,) and affirms what is said to thee [in that interrogation]; (M, K;) whether it be an interrogation in the proper sense, (Mughnee,) as when you say to another, أَلَمْ تَفْعَلْ كَذَا [Didst thou not such a thing?], and he replies, بَلَى [meaning Yes, or yea, or ay, I did], (T,) or as when one says, أَلَيْسَ زَيْدٌ بِقَائِمٍ

[Is not Zeyd standing?], and you reply, بَلَى

[Yes, he is]; or be meant to convey reproof, (Mughnee,) as in the Kur [lxxv. 3 and 4], أَيَحْسَبُ الإِنْسَانُ أَنْ لَنْ نَجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُ بَلَى [Doth man think that we will not collect his bones? Yes], (Msb, Mughnee,) i. e., we will collect them; (Msb;) or be meant to make a person confess, or acknowledge, a thing, (Mughnee,) as in the Kur [vii. 171], أَلَسْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ قَالُوا بَلَى

[Am I not your Lord? They said, Yea]. (M, Mughnee.) It is also a reply to a simple negation, (Msb, Mughnee,) as when I say, مَا قَامَ زَيْدٌ [Zeyd did not stand, or has not stood], and you reply, بَلَى as an affirmative [meaning Yes, he did, or he has]. (Msb.) It occurs in the Kur [xxxix. 60], where it is said, بَلَى قَدْ جَآءَتْكَ آيَاتِى

[Yea, my signs have come to thee], preceded by that which is not literally a negation, but which has the force of a negation; for the preceding saying, لَوْ أَنَّ اللّٰهَ هَدَانِى [If God had directed me aright, or would that God &c.], is like the saying, مَا هُدِيتُ [I was not directed aright]. (M.) It also occurs in the books of traditions, in some instances, as a reply to an interrogation without a negative; but these instances are rare, and not to be followed in rendering revelation. (Mughnee.) Az says that when a man says to another, أَلَا تَقُومُ [Wilt thou not stand?], and the latter replies, بَلَى, he means بَلْ أَقُومُ [Nay, I will stand], adding the alif [written ى] to make the pause good; for if he said, بَلْ, the other would expect something more to be said after it. (TA.) It is said that the pronunciation termed imáleh is allowable in the case of بَلَى; and if so, its final radical letter is ى: and some of the grammarians say that this pronunciation of بلى is because, by reason of its completeness and independence of meaning, so that it requires nothing after it, it resembles independent nouns, in the cases of which this pronunciation is allowable.

ام

1 أَمَّهُ, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـُ (T, M, Msb,) inf. n. أَمٌّ, (T, S, M, Msb,) He tended, repaired, betook himself, or directed his course, to, or towards, him, or it; aimed at, sought, endeavoured after, pursued, or endeavoured to reach or attain or obtain, him, or it; intended it, or purposed it; syn. قَصَدَهُ, (Lth, T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and تَوَخَّاهُ, (T,) and تَعَمَّدَهُ, (Mgh,) and تَوَجَّهَ إِلَيْهِ; (TA;) as also ↓ أَمَّمَهُ, and ↓ تأمّمهُ, (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and ↓ ائتمّهُ, (M, K,) and ↓ يَمَّمّهُ, (T, M, K,) and ↓ تَيَمَّمَهُ; (T, M, Mgh, K;) the last two being formed by substitution [of ى for أ]. (M.) Hence, يَااَللّٰهُ أُمَّنَا بِخَيْرٍ [O God, bring us good]. (JK in art. اله, and Bd in iii. 25.) and لَأَمَّ مَا هُوَ, occurring in a trad., meaning He has indeed betaken himself to, or pursued, the right way: or it is used in a pass. sense, as meaning he is in the way which ought to be pursued. (TA.) And رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ ↓ انْطَلَقْتُ أَتَأَمَّمُ, in another trad., I went away, betaking myself to the Apostle of God. (TA.) Hence, also, تَيَمَّمَ ↓ الصَّعِيدَ لِلصَّلَاهِ [He betook himself to dust, or pure dust, to wipe his face and his hands and arms therewith, for prayer]: (T, * M, * Mgh, TA:) as in the Kur iv. 46 and v. 9: (ISk, M, TA:) whence الَّتَّيَمُّمُ as meaning the wiping the face and the hands and arms with dust; (ISk, T, * M, * Mgh, TA;) i. e. the performing the act termed تَوَضُّؤٌ with dust: formed by substitution [of ى for آ]: (M, K:) originally التَّأَمُّمُ. (K.) b2: See also 8.

A2: أَمَّهُ, (S, M, Mgh, &c.,) aor. ـُ (M, Mgh,) inf. n. أَمٌّ, (M, Mgh, K,) He broke his head, so as to cleave the skin, (S, Msb,) inflicting a wound such as is termed آمَّة [q. v.]; (S;) [i. e.] he struck, (M, Mgh, K,) or wounded, (M, K,) the أُمّ [q. v.] of his head, (M, Mgh, K,) with a staff, or stick. (Mgh.) A3: أَمَّهُمْ (S, M, K) and أَمَّ بِهِمْ, (M, K,) [aor. ـُ inf. n. إِمَامَةٌ, (S, [but in the M and K it seems to be indicated that this is a simple subst.,]) He preceded them; went before them; took precedence of them; or led them, so as to serve as an example, or object of imitation; syn. تَقَدَّمَهُمْ; (M, K;) [and particularly] فِى الصَّلَاةِ [in prayer]. (S.) And أَمَّهُ and بِهِ أَمَّ He prayed as إِمَام [q. v.] with him. (Msb.) And أَمَّ الصُّفُوفَ He became [or acted as] إِمَام to the people composing the ranks [in a mosque &c.]. (Har p. 680.) You say also, لَا يَؤُمُّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِى سُلْطَانِهِ [A man shall not take precedence of a man in his authority]; meaning, in his house, and where he has predominance, or superior power, or authority; nor shall he sit upon his cushion; for in doing so he would show him contempt. (Mgh in art. سلط.) A2: أَمَّتٌ, (S, M, K,) [first Pers\. أَمُمْتُ,] aor. ـُ (M,) inf. n. أُمُومَةٌ, (M, K,) She (a woman, S) became a mother; (S, M, K;) [as also أَمَّتٌ having for its first Pers\. أَمِمْتُ, aor. ـَ for] you say, مَا كُنْتِ أُمَّا وَلَقَدْ أَمِمْتِ [Thou wast not a mother, and thou hast become a mother], (S, M, K, [in the last فَأَمِمْتِ,]) with kesr, (K,) inf. n. أُمُومَةٌ. (S, M, K.) b2: أَمَمْتُهُ I was to him a mother. (A in art. ربض.) IAar, speaking of a woman, said, كَانَتْ لَهَا عَمَّةٌ تَؤُمُّهَا, meaning [She had, lit. there was to her, a paternal aunt] who was to her like the mother. (M.) 2 أَمَّمَهُ and يَمَّمَهُ: see 1, first sentence, in two places.3 آمّهُ It agreed with it, neither exceeding nor falling short. (M.) b2: [See also the part. n. مُؤَامٌّ, voce أَمَمٌ; whence it seems that there are other senses in which آمَّ may be used, intransitively.]5 تَأَمَّمَ and تَيَمَّمَ: see 1, former part, in four places.

A2: تأمّم بِهِ: see 8.

A3: تَمَّمْتُ I took for myself, or adopted, a mother. (S.) And تَأَمَّمَهَا He took her for himself, or adopted her, as a mother; (S, * M, K;) as also ↓ استآمّها, (M, K,) and تَأَمَّهَهَا. (M.) 8 ائتمّهُ [written with the disjunctive alif اِيتَمَّهُ]: see 1, first sentence.

A2: ائتمّ بِهِ He followed his example; he imitated him; he did as he did, following his example; or taking him as an example, an exemplar, a pattern, or an object of imitation; (S, Mgh, Msb;) as also ↓ أَمَّهُ: (Bd in xvi. 121:) the object of the verb is termed إِمَامٌ; (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) applied to a learned man, (Msb,) or a head, chief, or leader, or some other person. (M, K.) He made it an أُمَّة or إِمَّة [i. e. a way, course, or rule, of life or conduct; as explained immediately before in the work whence this is taken]; as also به ↓ تأمّم. (M.) You say, ائتمّ بِالشَّيْءِ and ائْتَمَى به, by substitution [of ى for م], (M, K,) disapproving of the doubling [of the م]. (M.) 10 إِسْتَاْمَ3َ see 5.

أَمْ is a conjunction, (S, M, K,) connected with what precedes it (Msb, Mughnee) so that neither what precedes it nor what follows it is independent, the one of the other. (Mughnee.) It denotes interrogation; (M, K;) or is used in a case of interrogation, (S, Msb,) corresponding to the interrogative أَ, and meaning أَىّ, (S,) or, as Z says, أَىُّ الأَمْرَيْنِ كَائِنٌ; [for an explanation of which, see what follows;] (Mughnee;) or, [in other words,] corresponding to the interrogative أَ, whereby, and by أَمْ, one seeks, or desires, particularization: (Mughnee:) it is as though it were an interrogative after an interrogative. (Lth, T.) Thus you say, أَزَيُدٌ فِى الدَّارِ أَمْ عَمْرٌو [Is Zeyd in the house, or 'Amr?]; (S, Mughnee;) i. e. which of them two (أَيُّهُمَا) is in the house? (S;) therefore what follows ام and what precedes it compose one sentence; and it is not used in commanding nor in forbidding; and what follows it must correspond to what precedes it in the quality of noun and of verb; so that you say, أَزَيْدٌ قَائِمٌ أَمع قَاعِدٌ [Is Zeyd standing, or sitting?] and أَقَامَ زَيْدٌ أَمْ قَعَدَ [Did Zeyd stand, or sit?]. (Msb.) It is not to be coupled with أَ after it: you may not say, أَعِنْدَكَ زَيْدٌ أَمْ أَعِنْدَكَ عَمْرٌو. (S.) b2: As connected in like manner with what goes before, it is preceded by أَ denoting equality [by occurring after سَوَآءٌ &c.], and corresponds thereto, as in [the Kur lxiii. 6,] سَوَآءُ عَلَيْهِمْ أَسْتَغْفَرْتَ لَهُمٌ لَمٌ تَسْتَغُفِرْ لَهُمٌ [It will be equal to them whether thou beg forgiveness for them or do not beg forgiveness for them]. (Mughnee.) b3: It is also unconnected with what precedes it, (S, Msb, Mughnee,) implying always digression, (Mughnee,) preceded by an enunciative, or an interrogative, (S, Msb, Mughnee,) other than أَ, (Mughnee,) or by أَ not meant [really] as an interrogative but to denote disapproval, (Mughnee,) and signifies بَلْ, (Lth, Zj, T, S, M, Mughnee, K,) or بَلْ and أَ together, (Msb,) and this is its meaning always accord. to all the Basrees, but the Koofees deny this. (Mughnee.) Thus, using it after an enunciative, you say, إِنَّهَا لَإِبِلٌ أَمْ شَآءٌ [Verily they are camels: nay, or nay but, they are sheep, or goats: or nay, are they sheep, or goats?]: (S Msb, Mughnee:) this being said when one looks at a bodily form, and imagines it to be a number of camels, and says what first occurs to him; then the opinion that it is a number of sheep or goats suggests itself to him, and he turns from the first idea, and says, أَمْ شَآءٌ, meaning بَلْ, because it is a digression from what precedes it; though what follows بل is [properly] a thing known certainly, and what follows ام is opined. (S, TA.) And using it after an interrogative in this case, you say, هَلْ زيْدٌ مُنْطَلِقٌ أَمْ عَمْرٌو [Is Zeyd going away? Nay rather, or, or rather, is 'Amr?]: you digress from the question respecting Zeyd's going away, and make the question to relate to 'Amr; so that ام implies indecisive opinion, and interrogation, and digression. (S.) And thus using it, you say, هَلْ زَيْدٌ قَامَ أَمْ عَمْرٌو [Did Zeyd stand? Nay rather, or or rather, did 'Amr?]. (Msb.) And an ex. of the same is the saying [in the Kur xiii. 17], هَلْ يَسْتَوِى الْأَعْمَى وَالْبَصِيرُ أَمْ هَلْ تَسْتَوِى الظُّلُمَاتُ وَالنُّورُ [Are the blind and the seeing equal? Or rather are darkness and light equal?]. (Mughnee.) And an ex. of it preceded by أَ used to denote disapproval is the saying [in the Kur vii. 194], أَلَهُمْ أَرْجُلٌ يَمْشُونَ بِهَا أَمْ لَهُمْ أَيْدٍ يَبْطِشُونَ بِهَا [Have they feet, to walk therewith? Or have they hands to assault therewith?]: for أَ is here equivalent to a negation. (Mughnee.) [It has been shown above that] أَمْ is sometimes introduced immediately before هَلْ: (S, K:) but IB says that this is when هل occurs in a phrase next before it; [as in the ex. from the Kur xiii. 17, cited above;] and in this case, the interrogative meaning of ام is annulled; it being introduced only to denote a digression. (TA.) b4: It is also used as a simple interrogative; accord. to the assertion of AO; in the sense of هَلْ; (Mughnee;) or in the sense of the interrogative أَ; (Lth, T, K) as in the saying, أَمْ عِنْدَكَ غَدَآءِ حَاضِرٌ, meaning Hast thou a morning-meal ready? a good form of speech used by the Arabs; (Lth, T;) and allowable when preceded by another phrase. (T.) b5: And sometimes it is redundant; (Az, T, S, Mughnee, K) in the dial. of the people of El-Yemen; (T;) as in the saying, يَا دَهْنَ أَمْ مَا كَانَ مَشْيِى رقَصَا بَلْ قَدْ تَكُونُ مِشْيَتِى تَوَقُّصَا (T, S, * [in the latter, يا هِنْدُ, and only the former hemistich is given,]) meaning O Dahnà, (the curtailed form دَهْنَ being used for دَهْنَآء,) my walking was not, as now in my age, [a feeble movement like] dancing: but in my youth, my manner of walking used to be a bounding: (T:) this is accord. to the opinion of Az: but accord. to another opinion, ام is here [virtually] conjoined with a preceding clause which is suppressed; as though the speaker had said, يَا دَهْنَ أَكَانَ مَشْيِى رَقَصَّا أَمْ مَا كَانَ كَذلِكَ. (A 'Hát, TA.) A2: It is also used (T, Mughnee) in the dial. of the people of El-Yemen, (T,) or of Teiyi and Himyer, (Mughnee,) in the sense of ال, (T,) to render a noun determinate. (Mughnee.) So in the trad., لَيْسَ مِنَ امْبِرّ امْصِيامُ فِى امْسَفَرِ, (T, Mughnee,) i. e. الَيْسَ مِنَ البِرِّ الصِّيَامُ فِى السَّفَرِ [Fasting in journeying is not an act of obedience to God]. (T, and M in art. بر.) So too in the trad., اَلْآنَ طَابَ امْضَرْبُ Now fighting has become lawful; as related accord. to the dial. of Himyer, for الضَّرْبُ. (TA in art. طيب.) It has been said that this form ام is only used in those cases in which the ل of the article does not become incorporated into the first letter of the noun to which it is prefixed; as in the phrase, خُذِ الرُّمْحَ وَارْكَبِ امْفَرَسَ [Take thou the spear, and mount the mare, or horse], related as heard in El-Yemen; but this usage may be peculiar to some of the people of that country; not common to all of them; as appears from what we have cited above. (Mughnee.) A3: أَمَ for أَمَا, before an oath: see art. اما.

A4: And أَمَ اللّٰهِ and أَمُ اللّٰهِ &c.: see أَيْمُنُ اللّٰهِ, in art. يمن.

أُمٌّ A mother (T, S, M, Msb, K, &c.) [of a human being and] of any animal; (IAar, T;) as also ↓إِمٌّ, (Sb, M, Msb, K) and ↓إُمَّةٌ, (T, M, Msb, K,) and ↓أُمَّهَةٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) which last is the original form (S, Msb) accord. to some, (Msb,) or the ه in this is augmentative (M, Msb) accord. to others: (Msb:) the pl. is أُمَّهَاتٌ (Lth, T, S, M, Msb, K) and أُمَّاتٌ; (S, M, Msb, K;) or the former is applied to human beings, and the latter to beasts; (T, S;) or the former to rational beings, and the latter to irrational; (M, K;) or the former is much applied to human beings, and the latter to others, for the sake of distinction; (Msb;) but the reverse is sometimes the case: (IB:) IDrst and others hold the latter to be of weak authority: (TA:) the dim. of أُمٌّ is ↓ أُمَيْمَةٌ (T, S, K) accord. to some of the Arabs; but correctly, [accord. to those who hold the original form of أُمٌّ to be أُمَّهَةٌ,] it is ↓ أُمَيْمِهَةٌ. (Lth, T, TA. [In a copy of the T, I find this latter form of the dim. written اميهة.]) b2: أُمَّ لَكَ denotes dispraise; (S;) being used by the Arabs as meaning Thou hast no free, or ingenuous, mother; because the sons of female slaves are objects of dispraise with the Arabs; and is only said in anger and reviling: (A Heyth, T:) or, as some say, it means thou art one who has been picked up as a foundling, having no Known mother: (TA:) [or] it is also sometimes used in praise; (A 'Obeyd, T, S, K;) and is used as an imprecation without the desire of its being fulfilled upon the person addressed, being said in vehemence of love; [lit. meaning mayest thou have no mother!], like ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ, and لَا أَبَا لَكَ, [and قَاتَلَكَ اللّٰهُ,] &c. (Har p. 165.) b3: Some elide the ا of أُمّ; as in the saying of 'Adee Ibn-Zeyd.

أَيُّهَا العَائِبُ عِنْدِمَّ زَيْدٍ

[O thou who art blaming in my presence the mother of Zeyd]; meaning, عِنْدِى أُمَّ زَيْدٍ; the ى of عندى being also elided on account of the occurrence of two quiescent letters [after the elision of the ا of أُمّ]: (Lth, T, S:) and as in the phrase وَيْلُمِّهِ, (S,) which means وَيْلٌ لِأُمِّهِ. (S, and K in art. ويل, q. v.) b4: هُمَا أُمَّاكّ means They two are thy two parents: or thy mother and thy maternal aunt. (K.) [But] فَدَّاهُ بِأُمَّيْهِ is said to mean [He expressed a wish that he (another) might be ransomed with] his mother and his grandmother. (TA.) b5: One says also, لَا تَفْعَلِى ↓ يَا أُمَّتِ [O my mother, do not thou such a thing], and [in like manner] يَا أَبَتِ افْعَلْ; making the sign of the fem. gender a substitute for the [pronominal] affix ى; and in a case of pause, you say يَا أُمَّهْ. (S.) b6: And one says, مَا أُمِّى وَأُمُّهُ, and مَا شَكْلِى وَشَكْلُهُ, meaning [What relationship have I to him, or it? or what concern have I with him, or it? or] what is my case and [what is] his or its, case? because of his, or its, remoteness from me: whence, (T,) وَمَا أُمِّى وَأُمُّ الوَحْشِ لَمَّا تَفَرَّعَ فِى مَفَارِقِىَ الْمَشِيبُ [And what concern have I with the wild animals when hoariness hath spread in the places where my hair parts?]; (T, S;) i. e. مَا أَنَاوَطَلَبُ الوَحْشِ بَعْدَ مَا كَبِرْتُ [i. e. مَا أمْرِي وَطَلَبُ الوَحْشِ: in one copy of the S, وَطَلَبَ, i. e. with وَ as a prep. denoting concomitance, and therefore governing the accus. case: both readings virtually meaning what concern have I with the pursuing of the wild animals after I have grown old?]: he means, the girls: and the mention of أُمّ in the verse is superfluous. (S.) b7: أُمٌّ also relates to inanimate things that have growth; as in أُمُّ الشَّجَرَةِ [The mother of the tree]; and أُمُّ النَّخْلَةِ [the mother of the palm-tree]; and أُمُّ المَوْزِةَ [the mother of the banana-tree; of which see an ex. in art. موز]; and the like. (M, TA.) b8: and it signifies also The source, origin, foundation, or basis, (S, M, Msb, K,) of a thing, (S, Msb, [in the former of which, this is the first of the meanings assigned to the word,]) or of anything; (M, K) its stay, support, or efficient cause of subsistence. (M, K.) b9: Anything to which other things are collected together, or adjoined: (IDrd, M, K:) anything to which the other things that are next thereto are collected together, or adjoined: (Lth, T:) the main, or chief, part of a thing; the main body thereof: and that which is a compriser, or comprehender, of [other] things: (Ham p. 44:) the place of collection, comprisal, or comprehension, of a thing; the place of combination thereof. (En-Nadr, T.) b10: And hence, (IDrd, M,) The head, or chief, of a people, or company of men; (IDrd, S, M, K;) because others collect themselves together to him: (IDrd, TA:) so in the phrase أُمُّ عِيَالٍ [lit. the mother of a household], in a poem of Esh-Shenfarà: (IDrd, M:) or in this instance, it has the signification next following, accord. to Esh-Sháfi'ee. (T.) b11: A man who has the charge of the food and service of a people, or company of men; accord. to EshSháfi'ee: (T:) or their servant. (K.) b12: A man's aged wife. (IAar, T, K.) b13: A place of habitation or abode. (K.) So in the Kur [ci. 6], فَأُمُّهُ هَاوِيَةٌ His place of habitation or abode [shall be] the fire [of Hell]: (Bd, Jel, TA:) or, as some say, the meaning is أُمُّ رَأْسِهِ هَاوِيَةٌ فِيهَا [his brain shall fall into it, namely, the fire of Hell]. (TA.) b14: The ensign, or standard, which an army follows. (S.) [See أُمُّ الرُّمْحِ, below.] b15: It is said in a trad., respecting the prophets, أُمَّهَا تُهُمْ شَتَّى, meaning that, though their religion is one, their laws, or ordinances, or statutes, are various, or different: or the meaning is, their times are various, or different. (TA in art. شت.) b16: See also أُمَّةٌ, in two places. b17: أُمّ is also prefixed to nouns significant of many things. (M.) [Most of the compounds thus formed will be found explained in the arts. to which belong the nouns that occupy the second place. The following are among the more common, and are therefore here mentioned, with the meanings assigned to them in lexicons in the present art., and arranged in distinct classes.] b18: أُمُّ الرَّجُلِ The man's wife; and the person who manages the affairs of his house or tent. (TA.) And أُمُّ مَثْوَى الرَّجُلِ The man's wife, to whom he betakes himself for lodging, or abode: (T:) the mistress of the man's place of abode. (S, M.) b19: أُمُّ عَامِرٍ The hyena, or female hyena; as also أُمُّ عَمْرٍو; (TA;) and أُمُّ الطَّرِيقِ. (S, TA. [See also other significations of the first and last below.]) أُمُّ حِلْسٍ [or أُمُّ الحِلْسِ (as in the S and K in art. حلَس)] The she-ass. (TA.) أُمُّ البَيْضِ The female ostrich. (S, K.) b20: أُمُّ الرَّأُسِ The brain: (T, M, K:) or the thin skin that is upon it: (IDrd, M, K:) or the bag in which is the brain: (T:) or the skin that comprises the brain; [the meninx, or dura mater and pia mater;] (S, Mgh;) which is called أُمُّ الدِّمَاغِ (S, Msb) likewise. (S.) b21: أُمُّ النُّجُومِ The Milky way; (S, M, K) because it is the place where the stars are collected together [in great multitude]: (M:) or, as some say, the sun; which is the greatest of the stars. (Ham pp. 43 and 44.) Because of the multitude of the stars in the Milky way, one says, مَا أَشْبَهَ مَجْلِسَكَ بِأُمِّ النُّجُومِ (assumed tropical:) [How like is thine assembly to the Milky way!]. (TA.) b22: أُمُّ القُرَى [The mother of the towns; the metropolis: particularly] Mekkeh; (T, S, M, K) because asserted to be in the middle of the earth; (M, K;) or because it is the Kibleh of all men, and thither they repair; (M, K; *) or because it is the greatest of towns in dignity: (M, K:) and every city is the أُمّ of the towns around it. (T.) أُمُّ التَّنَائِفِ The most difficult of deserts or of waterless deserts: (T:) or a desert, or waterless desert, (S, K,) far extending. (S.) أُمُّ الطَّرِيقِ (T, S, M) and أُمَّةٌ ↓ الطَّرِيقِ (M, K) The main part [or track] of the road: (T, S, M, K:) when it is a great road or track, with small roads or tracks around it [or on either side], the greatest is so called.

(T.) You say, فُلَانٌ لَا أُمَّةَ لَهُ Such a one has no religion; no religious persuasion. (S.)

A2: The people of a [particular] religion: (Akh, S:) a people to whom an apostle is sent, (M, K,) unbelievers and believers; such being called his أُمَّة: (M:) any people called after a prophet are said to be his أُمَّة: (Lth, T:) the followers of the prophet: pl. أُمَمٌ. (T, Msb.) It is said in the Kur [ii. 209], كَانَ النَّاسُ أُمَّةٍ واحِدَةً, meaning Mankind was [a people] of one religion.

(Bd:) b5: A learned man: (T, M, K:) one who has no equal: (T:) the learned man of his age, or time, who is singular in his learning: (Msb:) and one who is alone in respect of religion. (T.)

A5: The stature of a man; tallness, and beauty of stature; or justness of stature; syn. قَامَةٌ; (T, S, M, Msb, K;) and شَطَاطً: (M, TA: [in the K, the signification of نَشَاطٌ is assigned to it; but this is evidently a mistake for شَطَاطٍ; for the next three significations before the former of these words in the K are the same as the next three before the latter of them in the M; and the next five after the former word in the K are the same as the next five after the latter in the M, with only this difference, that one of these five is the first of them in the M and the third of them in the K:]) pl. أُمَمٌ. (T, S, M. *) You say, إِنَّهُ لَحَسَنُ الأُمَّةِ, i. e. الشَّطَاطِ [Verily he is beautiful in justness of stature]. (M.)

A2: Accord. to IKtt, it signifies also i. q. أَمَمٌ [but in what sense is not said]. (TA.) أَمَمٌ Nearness. (S, M, K.) b2: [Near; nigh.] You say, أَخَذْتُ ذلِكَ مِنْ أَمَمٍ I took that from near; from nigh. (S, TA.) And دَارُكُمْ أَمَمٌ Your house is near, or nigh. (M, TA.) and هُوَ أَمَمٌ مِنْكَ He, or it, is near to thee: and in like manner you say of two: (M, TA:) and of a pl. number. (S, M, TA.) And دَارِى أَمَمَ دَارِهِ My house is opposite to, facing, or in front of, his house. (S.) b3: Easy: (S, M, K:) near at hand; near to be reached, or laid hold of. (T, TA.) b4: Between near and distant. (ISk, T, S.) b5: Conforming, or conformable, to the just mean: (M, K: *) and ↓ مُؤَامٌّ, (AA, T, S, M, K,) [in form] like مُضَارٌّ, (S,) originally مُؤَامِمٌ, (TA,) the same; (T;) of a middle, or middling, kind or sort; neither exceeding, nor falling short of, what is right; (AA, T, S, M;) applied to an affair, or a case, (T, S,) and a thing [of any kind]; (S;) as also ↓ مُؤَمٌّ; (TA;) and convenient, or suitable: (M, K:) and أَمَمٌ and ↓ مُؤَامٌّ both signify an affair, or a case, that is manifest, clear, or plain, (M, K,) not exceeding the due bounds or limits. (M.) الأَمَامُ The location that is before; (M, Msb, * K;) contr. of الوَرَآءُ. (M, K.) It is used [absolutely] as a noun, and adverbially, (M, Msb, * K,) necessarily prefixed to another noun: (Mgh:) and is fem., (Ks, M,) and sometimes mase.: (M, K:) or it is mase., and sometimes fem. as meaning the جِهَة: or, as Zj says, they differ as to making it masc. and making it fem. (Msb.) You say, كُنْتُ أَمَامَهُ I was before him, in respect of place. (S.) In the saying of Mohammad, to Usámeh, الصلَاةُ أَمَامَكَ, the meaning is The time of prayer [is before thee], or the place thereof; and by the prayer is meant the prayer of sunset. (Mgh.) You also say, أَمَامَكَ [i. c. Look before thee; meaning beware thou; or take thou note;] when you caution another, (M, K,) or notify him, of a thing. (M.) إِمَامٌ A person, (S, Mgh,) or learned man, (Msb,) whose example is followed, or who is imitated; (S, Mgh, Msb;) any exemplar, or object of imitation, (T, M, K,) to a people, or company of men, (T,) such as a head, chief, or leader, or some other person, (M, K,) whether they be following the right way or be erring therefrom: (T:) applied alike to a male and to a female: (Mgh, Msb:) applied to a female, it occurs in a phrase in which it is written by some with ة: (Mgh:) but this is said to be a mistake: (Msb:) it is correctly without ة, because it is a subst., not an epithet: (Mgh, Msb:) or it is allowable with ة, because it implies the meaning of an epithet: (Msb:) and ↓ أُمَّةٌ signifies the same: (T, M, K:) the pl. of the former is أَيِمَّةْ, (T, S, M, K, [but omitted in the CK,]) originally أَأْمِمَةٌ, (T, S,) of the measure أَفعِلَةٌ, like أَمْثِلَةٌ, pl. of مِثَالٌ, (T,) but as two meems come together, the former is incorporated into the latter, and its vowel is transferred to the hemzeh before it, which hemzeh, being thus pronounced with kesr, is changed into ى; (T, S; *) or it is thus changed because difficult to pronounce; (M;) or, as Akh says, because it is with kesr and is preceded by another hemzeh with fet-h: (S:) but some pronounce it أَئِمَّةٌ, (Akh, T, S, M, K,) namely, those who hold that two hemzehs may occur together; (Akh, S;) the Koofees reading it thus in the Kur ix. 12; (M;) but this is anomalous: (M, K:) it is mentioned as on the authority of Aboo-Is-hák, and [Az says,] I do not say that it is not allowable, but the former is the preferable: (T:) or the pl. is أَئِمَّةٌ, originally أَأْمِمَةٌ like أَمْثِلَةٌ: one of the two meems being incorporated into the other after the transfer of its vowel to the hemzeh [next before it]; some of the readers of the Kur pronouncing the [said] hemzeh with its true sound; some softening it, agreeably with analogy, in the manner termed بَيْنَ بَيْنَ; and some of the grammarians changing it into ى; but some of them reckon this incorrect, saying that there is no analogical reason for it: (Msb:) and accord. to some, (M,) its pl. is also إِمَامُ, (M, K,) like the sing., (K,) occurring in the Kur xxv. 74; (M;) not of the same category as عَدْلٌ (M, K) and رِضَّى, (M,) because they sometimes said إِمَامَانِ, but a broken pl.: (M, K: *) or, accord. to A 'Obeyd, it is in this instance a sing. denoting a pl.: (M, S: *) or it is pl. of آمٌّ, [which is originally آمِمْ,] like as صِحَابٌ is pl. of صَاحِبٌ: (M:) the dim. of أَيِمَّةٌ is ↓ أُوَيْمَّةْ; or, as El-Mázinee says, ↓ أُيَيْمَّةٌ. (S.) b2: الإمَامُ also signifies The Prophet: (K:) he is called إِمَامُ [the exemplar, object of imitation, leader, or head, of his nation, or people]; (T;) or إِمَامُ الأمَّةِ [the exemplar, &c., of the nation, or people]; (M;) it being incumbent on all to imitate his rule of life or conduct. (T.) b3: The Khaleefeh: (Msb, K:) he is called إمَامُ الرَّعِيَّةِ [the exemplar, &c., of the people, or subjects]. (M.) The title of الإمَامُ is still applied to the Kings of El-Yemen: Aboo-Bekr says, you say, فُلَانٌ إِمَامُ القَوْمِ, meaning such a one is the first in authority over the people, or company of men: and إِمَامُ المَسْلِمِينَ means the head, chief, or leader, of the Muslims. (TA.) b4: The person whose example is followed, or who is imitated, [i. e. the leader,] in prayer. (Msb.) b5: [The leading authority, or head, of a persuasion, or sect. The four أيِمَّة or أَئِمَّة are the heads of the four principal persuasions, or sects, of the Sunnees; namely, the Hanafees, Sháfi'ees, Málikees, and Hambelees. And the Hanafees call the two chief doctors of their persuasion, after Aboo-Haneefeh, namely, Aboo-Yoosuf and Mohammad, الإِمَامَانِ The two Imáms.] b6: The leader of an army. (M, K.) b7: The guide: (K:) he is called إِمَامُ الإِبِلِ [the leader of the travellers]. (M.) b8: The conductor, or driver, of camels (M, K) is called إِمَامُ الإِبِلِ, though he be behind them, because he guides them. (M.) b9: The manager, or conductor, and right disposer, orderer, or rectifier, of anything. (M, K. *) b10: The Kur-án (M, K) is called إِمَامُ المُسْلِمينَ [the guide of the Muslims]; (M;) because it is an exemplar. (TA.) [The model-copy, or standard-copy, of the Kur-án, namely the copy of the Khaleefeh 'Othmán, is particularly called الإِمَامُ.] b11: [The scripture of any people: and, without the article, a book, or written record.] It is said in the Kur [xvii. 73], يَوْمَ نَدْعُو كُلَّ أُنَاسٍ بِإمَامِهِمْ The day when we shall call every one of mankind with their scripture: or, as some say, with their prophet and their law: or, as some say, with their book in which their deeds are recorded. (T.) It is also said in the Kur [xxxvi. 11], كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ فِى إِمَامٍ مُبِينٍ, meaning, says El-Hasan, [And everything have we recorded] in a perspicuous book, or writing; (S, Jel;) i. e., on the Preserved Tablet. (Bd, Jel.) b12: The lesson of a boy, that is learned each day (T, M, K) in the school: (T:) also called السَّبَقُ. (TA.) b13: The model, or pattern, of a semblance, or shape. (M, K.) b14: The builder's wooden instrument [or rule] whereby he makes the building even. (S, K. *) b15: The cord which the builder extends to make even, thereby, the row of stones or bricks of the building; also called التُّرُّ and المِطْهَرُ; (T;) the string which is extended upon, or against, a building, and according to which one builds. (M, K. *) b16: إِمَامٌ signifies also A road, or way: (S, [but omitted in some copies,] M, K:) or a manifest road, or way. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xv. 79], وَ إِنَّهُمَا لَبِإمَامٍ مُبِينٍ (S, M) And they were both, indeed, in a way pursued and manifest: (M:) or in a way which they travelled in their journeys. (Fr.) b17: The direction (تَلْقَآء) of the Kibleh. (M, K. *) b18: A tract, quarter, or region, of land, or of the earth. (S.) b19: A string [of a bow or lute &c.]; syn. وَتَرٌ. (Sgh, K.) أَمِيمٌ Beautiful in stature; (K;) applied to a man. (TA.) A2: I. q. ↓ مَأْمُومٌ; (S, M, Msb, K;) i. e. one who raves, or is delirious, (يَهْذِى, [in two copies of the S يَهْدِى, but the former appears, from a remark made voce آمَّةٌ, to be the right reading,]) from [a wound in] what is termed أُمُّ رَأْسِهِ [see أُمٌّ]: (S:) or wounded in what is so termed; (M, K;) having a wound such as is termed آمَّة, q. v. (Msb.) It is also used, metaphorically, in relation to other parts than that named above; as in the saying, وَ حَشَاىَ مِنْ حَرِّ الفِرَاقِ أَمِيمُ (tropical:) [And my bowels are wounded by reason of the burning pain of separation]. (M.) A3: A stone with which the head is broken: (S, O:) but in the M and K ↓ أمَيْمَةٌ, [in a copy of the M, however, I find it without any syll. signs, so that it would seem to be ↓ أَمِيمَةٌ,] explained as signifying stones with which heads are broken: (TA:) pl. أَمَائِمُ. (S, TA.) أُمَائِمُ Three hundred camels: (M, K:) so explained by Abu-l-'Alà. (M.) إِمَامَةٌ: see إِمَّةٌ.

أَمِيمَةٌ: see أَمِيمٌ b2: Also, (Sgh,) or ↓ أُمَيْمَةٌ, (K,) A blacksmith's hammer. (Sgh, K.) أُمَيْمَةٌ dim. of أُمٌّ, q. v. (T, S, K.) A2: See also أَمِيمٌ: b2: and أمَيمَةٌ.

الإِمِامِيَّةُ One of the exorbitant sects of the Shee'ah, (TA,) who asserted that 'Alee was expressly appointed by Mohammad to be his successor. (Esh-Shahrastánee p. 122, and KT.) أُمَيْمِهةٌ [dim. of أُمَّهةٌ] : see أُمٌّ, first sentence.

أُمِّىٌّ (T, M, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ أُمَّانٌ (K) [the former a rel. n. from أُمَّةٌ, and thus properly meaning Gentile: whence, in a secondary, or tropical, sense,(assumed tropical:) a heathen;] (assumed tropical:) one not having a revealed scripture; (Bd in iii. 19 and 69;) so applied by those having a revealed scripture: (Bd in iii.69:) [and particularly] an Arab: (Jel in iii. 69, and Bd and Jel in lxii. 2:) [or] in the proper language [of the Arabs], of, or belonging to, or relating to, the nation (أُمَّة) of the Arabs, who did not write nor read: and therefore metaphorically applied to (tropical:) any one not knowing the art of writing nor that of reading: (Mgh:) or (assumed tropical:) one who does not write; (T, M, K;) because the art of writing is acquired; as though he were thus called in relation to the condition in which his mother (أُمَّهُ) brought him forth: (T:) or (assumed tropical:) one who is in the natural condition of the nation (الأُمَّة) to which he belongs, (Zj, * T, M, * K, *) in respect of not writing, (T,) or not having learned writing; thus remaining in his natural state: (M, K:) or (assumed tropical:) one who does not write well; said to be a rel. n. from أمٌّ; because the art of writing is acquired, and such a person is as his mother brought him forth, in respect of ignorance of that art; or, as some say, from أُمَّةُ العَرَبِ; because most of the Arabs were of this description: (Msb:) the art of writing was known among the Arabs [in the time of Mohammad] by the people of Et-Táïf, who learned it from a man of the people of El-Heereh, and these had it from the people of El-Ambár. (T.) أُمِّيُّون لَا يَعْلَمُونَ, الكِتَابَ, in the Kur ii. 73, means Vulgar persons, [or heathen,] who know not the Book of the Law revealed to Moses: (Jel:) or ignorant persons, who know not writing, so that they may read that book; or, who know not the Book of the Law revealed to Moses. (Bd.) Mohammad was termed أُمِّىّ [meaning A Gentile, as distinguished from an Israelite: or, accord. to most of his followers, meaning illiterate;] because the nation (أُمَّة) of the Arabs did not write, nor read writing; and [they say that] God sent him as an apostle when he did not write, nor read from a book; and this natural condition of his was one of his miraculous signs, to which reference is made in the Kur [xxix. 47], where it is said, “thou didst not read, before it, from a book, nor didst thou write it with thy right hand:” (T, TA:) but accord. to the more correct opinion, he was not well acquainted with written characters nor with poetry, but he discriminated between good and bad poetry: or, as some assert, he became acquainted with writing after he had been unacquainted therewith, on account of the expression “ before it ”

in the verse of the Kur mentioned above: or, as some say, this may mean that he wrote though ignorant of the art of writing, like as some of the kings, being أُمِّيُّون, write their signs, or marks: (TA:) or, accord. to Jaafar Es-Sádik, he used to read from the book, or scripture, if he did not write. (Kull p. 73.) [Some judicious observations on this word are comprised in Dr. Sprenger's Life of Mohammad (pp. 101-2); a work which, in the portion already published (Part I.), contains much very valuable information.] b2: Also, (K,) or [only] أُمِّىٌّ, (Az, T, M,) applied to a man, (Az, T,) Impotent in speech, (عَيِىّ, in the K incorrectly written غَبِىّ, TA,) of few words, and rude, churlish, uncivil, or surly. (Az, T, M, K.) أُمِّيَّةٌ The quality denoted by the epithet أُمِّىٌّ: (TA:) [gentilism: (assumed tropical:) heathenism: &c.:] (assumed tropical:) the quality of being [in the natural condition of the nation to which one belongs, or] as brought forth by one's mother, in respect of not having learned the art of writing nor the reading thereof. (Kull p. 73.) أُمَّانٌ: see أُمِّىٌّ; and see also art. امن

أُمَّهَدٌ: see أُمٌّ.

آمٌّ [act. part. n. of 1;] i. q. قَاصِدٌ: [see 1, first sentence:] (TA:) pl. إِمَامٌ, like as صِحَابٌّ is pl. of صَاحِبٌ, (M, K,) accord. to some, but others say that this is pl. of إِمَامٌ [q. v.; the sing. and pl. being alike]; (M;) and آمُّونَ. (TA.) Hence, in the Kur [v. 2], وَلَا آمِّينَ الْبَيْتَ الْحَرَامَ [Nor those repairing to the Sacred House]. (TA.) آمَّةٌ (S, Msb) and ↓ مَأْمُومَةٌ, as some of the Arabs say, (IB, Msb,) because it implies the meaning of a pass. part. n., originally; (Msb;) but 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh says that this is a mistake; for the latter word is an epithet applied to the part called أُمُّ الدِّمَاغِ when it is broken; (IB;) or شَجَّةٌ آمَّةٌ and ↓ مَأْمُومَةٌ; (M, Mgh, K;) A wound by which the head is broken, (S, M, Msb, K,) reaching to the part called أُمُّ الدِّمَاغِ, (S, Msb,) or, [which means the same,] أُمُّ الرَّأْسِ, (M, K,) so that there remains between it and the brain [only] a thin skin: (S:) it is the most severe of شِجَاج [except that which reaches the brain (see شَجَّةٌ)]: ISk says that the person suffering from it roars, or bellows, (يَصْعَقُ,) like thunder, and like the braying of camels, and is unable to go forth into the sun: (Msb:) the mulct for it is one third of the whole price of blood: (TA:) IAar assigns the meaning of [this kind of] شَجَّة to ↓ أَمَّةٌ; which seems, therefore, to be either a dial. var. or a contraction of آمَّةٌ: (Msb:) the pl. of آمَّةٌ is أَوَامُّ (Mgh, Msb) and ↓ مآئِمُ; or this latter has no proper sing.: (M, TA:) the pl. of ↓ مأْمُومَةٌ is مَأْمُومَاتٌ. (Mgh, Msb.) أَوَمُّ and أَيَمُّ Better in the performance of the office termed إِمَامَةٌ; followed by مِنْ: (Zj, T, M, K:) originally أَأَمُّ: the second hemzeh being changed by some into و and by some into ى. (Zj, T, M.) أُيَيْمَّةٌ, or أُيَيْمَّةٌ, dim. of أَيِمَّةٌ, pl. of إِمَامٌ, q. v. (S.) مُؤمٌّ: see أَمَمٌ.

مِئَمٌّ A camel that leads and guides: (M:) or a guide that shows the right way: and a camel that goes before the other camels: (K:) fem. with ة; (M, K;) applied to a she-camel (M, TA) that goes before the other she-camels, and is followed by them. (TA.) مأْمُومٌ: see أَمِيمٌ. b2: Also A camel having his hump bruised internally by his being much ridden, or having his hump swollen in consequence of the galling of the saddle and the cloth beneath it, and bruised, and having his hump corroded: (S:) or whose fur has gone from his back in consequence of beating, or of galls, or sores, produced by the saddle or the like. (M, K.) b3: مأْمُومَةٌ: see آمَّةٌ, in three places.

مُؤَامٌّ: see أَمَمٌ, in two places.

مؤْتَمٌّ act. part. n. of ائْتَمَّ بِهِ; Following as an example; imitating; taking as an example, an exemplar, a pattern, or an object of imitation.

تلاهى: أراد أن يتسلّى ويبتعد عمّا يرهقه ويزعجه (ألف ليلة 47:3): ثم أني سليت نفسي وصوت اتلاهى في بعض الأمور.
تلاهى: (فاليتون 3): كان حزيناً جداً وحاله حال ذلك الذي شارفت حياته على نهايتها ولم يبق منه إلاّ أنفاس معدودة وحركات محصورة ومدة فانية وعدة متلاهية؛ وحول معنى عدّة (التي تابع ويجرز معناها الذي ذكره رايسك) ذكر (لين): انقضت عدة الرجل. The man's term ended.
فهي إذن مرادفة لكلمة إلاّ أن متلاهية التي فسّرها ويجرز تفسيراً مبتوراً بدت لي غير ذات معنى. لقد كان الأجدر بي أن أقرأها متناهية (لمن قرُبت نهايته) لأنها أكثر انطباقاً على المعنى، بل إنها تمتماً لو لم يعترضني المخطوط.
التهى بنفسه: (ألف ليلة 371:4).
التهى في: لها، مَجَن (بوشر).
لهو. آلات اللهو (ألف ليلة 66:1).

ملهوية: رامج. قطعة جلد احمر على شكل طائر تلقى في الهواء لاستعادة الصقر في الصيد (الكالا a?agaza) .

لهو

1 لَهِىَ عَنْهُ, (S, Msb, K) and لَهَا عنه (Msb, K,) He became diverted from it, so as to forget it. (S, Msb, K.) b2: See an ex. voce استأثر: and see عَنْ. b3: لَهَتْ إِلَى حَدِيثِهِ, inf. n. لَهْوٌ and لُهُوٌّ, She (a woman) was, or became, cheered, or delighted, and pleased, with his discourse. (M, K.) And so لَهَوْتُ بِحَدِيثِهِ. (T in art. رنو.) 4 أَلْهَانِى الشَّىْءُ The thing diverted me; syn. شَغَلَنِى. (Msb.) b2: أَلْهَاهُ بَالغِنَآءِ [He diverted him by singing]. (S, art. سمد.) 5 تَلَهَّى بَالشَّىْءِ i. q. تَعَلَّلَ: (TA:) and أُولِعَ بِهِ. (Msb.) b2: And تَلِّهَى He diverted himself. (TA.) لَهْوٌ Diversion; pastime; sport; play: or especially, such as is vain, or frivolous; idle sport: (from various explanations:) what occupies a man so as to divert him from that which would render him sad or solicitous, &c.: (TA:) or relief of the mind by means which wisdom does not require: this [it is said] is the original signification: (Et-Tarasoosee, Msb:) a thing in which a man delights himself, and which occupies him so as to divert him, and then ceases. (KT.) It has a more general application than لَعِبٌ: for ex., the hearing of musical instruments or the like is لَهْوٌ, but not لَعْبٌ. (TA.) b2: آلَةُ لَهْوٍ [An instrument of diversion, meaning, of music]. (K voce رَبَابٌ.) لَهَاةٌ [The uvula;] the red piece of flesh that hangs down from the upper حَنَكِ. (Zj, in his Khalk el-Insán.) See also الأَسَالِقُ, and شِقْشِقةٌ. b2: اللَهُاة [generally expl. as meaning The uvula: or] what is between the end of the root of the tongue and the end of the قَلْب [thus in all the copies of the K that I have seen, an evident mistranscription for قَلْت, i. e. hollow] of the upper part of the mouth (K: [app. meaning the arches, or pillars, of the soft palate; agreeably with the next explanation here following:]) or the furthest part of the mouth: [see غُنّةٌ:] and, of the he-camel, the شِقْشِقَة [i. e. bursa faucium]. (JK.) See also a usage of the pl., لَهَواتٌ, in the last explanation of قَلْتٌ.

تسع

1 تَسَعَهُمْ, aor. ـَ (S, Msb, K) and تَسِعَ (Yoo, Msb, K) and تَسُعَ, (Msb,) inf. n. تَسْعٌ, (T K,) He took the ninth part of their possessions: or he became the ninth of them: (S, Msb, K:) or he made them to be nine with himself; (K;) they having before been eight. (TA.) [See also 2.]2 تسّعهُ He made it nine. (Esh-Sheybánee, and K voce وَحَّدَ.) [See also 1.] b2: تسّع لِامْرَأَتِهِ, or عِنْدَهَا, He remained nine nights with his wife: and in like manner the verb is used in relation to any saying or action. (TA voce سَبَّعَ.) 4 اتسعوا They became nine: (S, K:) and they became ninety. (M and L in art. ثلث.) b2: They were, or became, persons whose camels came to water [on the ninth day, counting the day of the next preceding watering as the first; i. e.,] after an interval of nine days, [of which the first or last, or each of these, was not complete,] and eight nights. (S, * K, * TA.) تَسْعٌ: see تِسْعَةٌ.

تُسْعٌ A ninth part; one of nine parts; (S, Msb, K,) as also ↓ تُسُعٌ; (Msb;) and ↓ تَسِيعٌ, (S, Msb, K,) agreeably with a rule which some hold to be applicable in the case of every similar fractional number; but Sh says, I have not heard تَسِيعٌ on any authority but that of Az. (TA.) تِسْعٌ fem. of تِسْعَةٌ, q. v. b2: Also A certain ظْمء of the أَظْمَآء of camels; (S, K, TA;) i. e., their coming to water [on the ninth day, counting the day of the next preceding watering as the first; or, in other words,] after an interval of nine days, [of which the first or last, or each of these, is not complete,] and eight nights. (TA.) b3: Also The ninth young one, or offspring. (A in art. ثلث.) تُسَعٌ The seventh and eighth and ninth nights of the [lunar] month; (K;) the three nights of the month which are after the نُفَل, because the last night of these is the ninth; (S;) among the nights of the month are three called غُرَرٌ, [pl. of غُرَّةٌ,] and after these are three called نُفَلٌ, and after these are three called تُسَعٌ because the last of them is the ninth night: (Az, TA:) or the three nights of the commencement of the month, as some say; but the first of these explanations is more agreeable with analogy. (TA.) تُسُعٌ: see تُسْعٌ.

تِسْعَةٌ, applied to denote a number, [namely Nine,] is masc. ; and ↓ تِسْعٌ, so applied, is fem.: (S:) the latter is also written ↓ تَسْعٌ, with fet-h to the ت; and is thus pronounced in the Kur xxxviii. 22, (Bd, MF,) accord. to one reading. (Bd.) You say تِسْعَةُ رِجَالٍ [Nine men], and تِسْعٌ نِسْوَةٍ [Nine women]. (K.) When it means the things numbered, not the amount of the number, تسعة is imperf. decl., being regarded as a proper name: thus you say, تِسْعَةُ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ ثَمَانِيَةَ [Nine things are more than eight things]. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xvii. 103], وَ لَقَدْ آتَيْنَا مُوسَى تِسْعَ آيَاتٍ بَيِّنَاتٍ [And we formerly gave unto Moses nine evident signs; generally understood to mean the principal miracles which he was empowered to perform, and which are differently enumerated in the K and other works; but by some supposed to mean statutes]. (K, * TA.) b2: In تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ, which is masc., and تِسْعَ عَشْرَةَ, which is fem., [each signifying Nineteen,] each of the two words ends with fet-h in every case, because they are two nouns which are regarded as one noun. (TA.) The former is pronounced by some of the Arabs تِسْعَةَ عْشَرَ: and the latter, thus in the dial. of El-Hijáz [and of most of the Arabs], is pronounced تِسْعَ عَشِرَةَ in the dial. of Nejd. (S in art. عشر.) In the Kur lxxiv. 30, some read, تِسْعَةَ عْشَرَ, making the ع in عشر quiescent, instead of تِسْعَهَ عَشَرَ, from a dislike of this consecution of vowels in what is like one word. (Bd, TA. *) تِسْعُونَ, Ninety: and ninetieth.]

تُسَاعَ, as meaning Nine and nine, or nine and nine together, or nine at a time and nine at a time, seems not to have been in use.] A'Obeyd says that more than أُحَادَ and ثُنَآءَ and ثُلَاثَ and رُبَاعَ has not been heard, except عُشَارَ occurring in a verse of El-Kumeyt. (TA in art. عشر.) تَسِيعٌ: see تُسْعٌ.

تَاسِعٌ [Making to be nine with himself, or itself: and hence, ninth]. You say, هُوَ تَاسِعُ تِسْعَةٍ [He is the ninth of nine]: and تَاسِعُ ثَمَانِيَةٍ [He is making eight to be nine with himself]: but it is not allowable to say, تَاسِعٌ تِسْعَةً. (TA.) b2: [تَاسِعَ عَشَرَ and تَاسِعَةَ عَشْرَةَ, the former masc. and the latter fem., meaning Nineteenth, are subject to the same rules as ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and its fem., explained in art. ثلث, q. v.]

تَاسُوعَآءُ, (Msb, TA, &c.,) or التَّاسُوعَآءُ, (S, K,) The tenth day of [the month] El-Moharram; (Msb, TA;) [the day] before the day of العَاشُورَآءُ, (S,) or before the day of عَاشُورَآءُ: (K:) or, accord. to some, the same as the day of العاشوراء: (TA:) [see عاشوراء, where this is explained:] it is a post-classical word: (Sgh, K:) J says, in the S, I think it post-classical: (Msb, TA:) but [SM says,] this requires consideration; for it was used by the Prophet: (TA:) one ought to say, that, with عاشوراء, it has this form for the sake of resemblance; but as used alone, it must be conceded that it has not been heard [from the Arabs of the classical times]. (Msb.) مُتَسَّعٌ pass. part. n. of 2, q. v. See also مُثَلَّثٌ.]

مَتْسُوعٌ A rope consisting of nine strands. (TA.)

And ثُلِثَتِ التَّرِكَةُ The property left at death had a third of it taken. (A.) and ثَلَثَ, aor. ـِ [but in this case it seems that it should be ثَلُثَ, as above,] is also said to signify He slew a third. (L.) b2: ثَلَثَ القَوْمَ, (T, S, K,) or الاِثْنَيْنِ, (Fr, T, M,) or الرَّجُلَيْنِ, (Msb,) aor. ـِ (S, M, Msb, K,) [thus distinguished from the verb in the first sense explained above,] inf. n. ثَلْثٌ, (TA,) signifies He was, or became, the third of the people, (T, S, K,) or a third to the two, (Fr, T, M,) or to the two men: (Msb:) or he made them, with himself, three: (T, S, K:) and similar to this are the other verbs of number, to ten [inclusive], except that you say, أَرْبَعُهُمْ and أَسْبَعُهُمْ and أَتْسَعُهُمْ, with fet-h, because of the ع. (S.) A poet says, (IAar, S,) namely, AbdAllah Ibn-Ez-Zubeyr El-Asadee, satirizing the tribe of Teiyi, (IB, TA,) فَإِنْ تَثْلِثُوا نَرْبَعْ وَإِنْ يَكُ خَامِسٌ يَكُنْ سَادِسٌ حَتَّى يُبِيرَكُمُ القَتْلُ [And if ye make up the number of three, we will make up the number of four; and if there be a fifth of you, there shall be a sixth of us; so that slaughter shall destroy you]: (IAar, S, IB:) he means, if ye become three, we will become four: or if ye slay three. (IB, TA.) b3: Also; (S, M, TA;) in the K, “or,” but this is wrong; (MF, TA;) ثَلَثَ القَوْمَ signifies He made the people, with himself, thirty; (A 'Obeyd, S, M, K;) they being twenty-nine: and in like manner one uses the other verbs of number, to a hundred [exclusive]. (A 'Obeyd, S.) And ثَلَثَ also signifies He made twelve to be thirteen. (T.) b4: ثَلَثَ الأَرْضَ He turned over the ground three times for sowing, or cultivating. (A, TA.) b5: See also 2. b6: ثَلَثَ, (T, M, L, TA,) [as though intrans., an objective complement being app. understood,] or ↓ ثلّث, (K, [but the former is app. the right reading, unless both be correct,]) said of a horse, He came [third in the race; i. e., next] after that which is called المُصَلِّى: (T, M, L, K: [in the CK, الذى, after الفَرَسُ, should be omitted:]) then you say رَبَعَ: then, خَمَسَ. (T, M, L.) And in like manner it is said of a man [as meaning He came third]. (T.) b7: لَا يَثْنِى

وَلَا يَثْلِثُ, (so in a copy of the M in art. ثنى, but in the present art. in the same copy written لا يثنِى ولا يثْلِثُ,) or ↓ لَا يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ, (so in a copy of the A, [in the CK in art. ثنى, and in Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 545, لَا يُثَنَّى وَلَا يُثَلَّثُ,]) or ↓ لَا يُثْنِى وَلَا يُثْلِثُ, (so in a copy of the K in art. ثنى, [in the TA, in the present art. and in art. ثنى, without any syll. signs,]) said of an old man, meaning He cannot rise, (M, A, TA,) when he desires to do so, a first time, nor can he (M, TA) the second time, nor the third.

(KL.) b2: [Hence, ثلّث, inf. n. تَثْلِيثٌ, He asserted the doctrine of the Trinity.] b3: [Hence also,] فُلَانٌ يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ Such a one counts two Khaleefehs, namely, the two Sheykhs [Aboo-Bekr and 'Omar], and [does not count three, i. e.,] rejects the other [that succeeded them]: and فُلَانٌ يُثَلِّثُ وَلَا يُرَبِّعُ Such a one counts three Khaleefehs, [namely, those mentioned above and 'Othmán,] and [does not count a fourth, i. e.,] rejects ['Alee,] the fourth. (A, TA.) b4: لَا يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ: see 1. b5: ثلّث لِامْرَأَتِهِ, or عِنْدَهَا, He remained three nights with his wife: and in like manner the verb is used in relation to any saying or action. (TA voce سَبَّعَ.) b6: ثلّث بِنَاقَتِهِ He tied, or bound, three of the teats of his she-camel with the صِرَار. (S.) b7: ثَلَّثَتْ said of a she-camel, and of any female: see 4. b8: ثلّث said of a horse in a race: see 1. b9: ثلّث البُسْرُ, (M, K,) inf. n. as above, (K,) The full-grown unripe dates became, to the extent of a third part of them, ripe, or in the state in which they are termed رُطَب.

ثِلْثٌ The third young one or offspring, (M, A, K,) of a she-camel, (M, K,) and, accord, to Th, of any female: (M:) and in like manner others are termed, to ten [inclusive]. (A.) But one should not say نَاقَةٌ ثِلْثٌ [after the manner of ثِنْىٌ, q. v.]. (M.) b2: سَقَى نَخْلَهُ الثِّلْثَ He watered his palm-trees once in three days: (A:) or he watered them بَعْدَ الثُّنْيَا [which app. means after excepting, or omitting, one day]. (K.) ثِلْثٌ is not used [thus] except in this case: there is no ثِلْث in the watering of camels; for the shortest period of watering is the رِفْه when the camels drink every day; then is the غِبّ, which is when they come to the water one day and not the next day; and next after this is the رِبْع; then, the خِمْس; and so on to the عِشْر: so says As: (S, TA:) and this is correct, though J's assertion that ثِلْث is not used except in this case is said by F to require consideration. (TA.) b3: حُمَّى الثِّلْثِ i. q. حُمَّى الغِبِّ, [The tertian fever;] the fever that attacks one day and intermits one day and attacks again on the third day; called by the vulgar ↓ المُثَلِّثَةُ. (Msb.) ثُلَثٌ: see what next follows.

ثُلُثٌ (T, S, M, A, Msb, K) and ↓ ثُلْثٌ (Msb, K) and ↓ ثُلَثٌ, which last is either a dial. var. or is so pronounced to make the utterance more easy, (MF,) A third; a third part or portion; (S, A, Msb, K;) as also ↓ ثَلِيتٌ, (As, T, S, M, Msb, K,) like ثَمِينٌ and سَبِيعٌ and سَدِيسٌ and خَمِيسٌ and نَصِيفٌ, (S,) though Az ignored ثَلِيثٌ (T, S) and خَمِيسٌ: (S:) [and ↓ مِثْلَاثٌ, q. v., app, signifies the same:] the pl. of ثلث, (M, Msb,) and of ثليث also, (M,) is أَثْلَاثٌ. (M, Msb.) It is said in a trad., دِيَةُ شِبْهِ العَمْدِ أَثْلَاثًا [The expiatory mulct for that homicide which resembles what is intentional shall be thirds]; i. e., thirty-three she-camels each such as is termed حِقَّة, and thirtythree of which each is such as is termed جَذَعَة, and thirty-four of which each is what is termed ثَنِيَّة. (TA.) إِنَآءٌ ثَلْثَانُ A vessel in which the corn &c. that is measured therein reaches to one third of it: and in like manner one uses this expression in relation to beverage, or wine, &c. (M, L.) ثِلْثَانٌ, (so in a copy of the M,) or ثَلِثَانٌ, and ثَلَثَانٌ, (K,) I. q. عِنَبُ الثَّعْلَبِ; (K;) the tree thus called. (M, TA.) ثَلَاثٌ, also written ثَلٰثٌ: see ثَلَاثَةٌ, in six places: and ثُلَاثُ, in two places.

ثُلَاثُ and ↓ مَثْلَثُ (S, L, K) Three and three; three and three together; or three at a time and three at a time; (L;) imperfectly decl. [because] changed from the original form of ثَلَاثَةٌ ثَلَاثَةٌ; (K;) or because of their having the quality of epithets and deviating from the original form of ثَلَاثَةٌ: they are epithets; for you say, مَرَرْتُ بِقَوْمٍ

مَثْنَى وَثُلَاثَ [I passed by a party of men two and two, and three and three, together]: (Sb, S:) or they are imperfectly decl. because they deviate from their original as to the letter and the meaning; the original word being changed as above stated, and the meaning being changed to ثَلَاثَةٌ ثَلَاثَةٌ: but the dim. is ↓ ثُلَيِّثٌ, perfectly decl., like أُحَيِّدٌ &c., because it is like حُمَيِّرٌ [dim. of حِمَارٌ], assuming the form of that which is perfectly decl., though it is not so in the cases of أَحْسَنُ and the like, as these words, in assuming the dim. form, do not deviate from the measure of a verb, for مَا أُحَيْسِنَهُ [How goodly is he!] is sometimes said. (S.) It is said in the Kur [iv. 3], فَانْكِحُوا مَا طَابَ لَكُمْ مِنَ النِّسَآءِ وَثُلَاثَ وَرُبَاعَ, i. e. Then marry ye such as please you, of women, two [and] two, and three [and] three, and four [and] four: [meaning, two at a time, &c.:] here مثنى &c. are imperfectly decl. because deviating from the original form of اِثْنَيْنِ اِثْنَيْنِ, &c., and from the fem. form. (Zj, T, L.) And one says ↓ مَثْلَثَ مَثْلَثَ, like ثُلَاثَ ثُلَاثَ. (T.) You say also, فَعَلْتُ الشَّىْءَ مَثْنَى وَثُلَاثَ وَرُبَاعَ, meaning I did the thing twice and twice, and thrice and thrice, and four times and four times. (L.) b2: [ثُلَاثٌ is app. fem. of ثُلَاثَةٌ, a dial, var. of ثَلَاثَةٌ, of which the fem. is ثَلَاثٌ: and hence,] ذُو ثُلَاثٍ, with damm [to the initial ث], A camel's [girth of the kind called]

وَضِين. (K.) You say, اِلْتَقَتْ عُرَا ذِى ثُلَاثِهَا (tropical:) [lit., The loops of her girth met together]; (A, TA; [but in a copy of the former, ↓ ذى ثَلَاثِهَا;]) meaning, she was, or became, lean, or lank in the belly. (A. [See a similar saying voce بِطَانٌ.]) And a poet says, وَقَدْ ضَمَرَتْ حَتَّى بَدَا ذُو ثُلَاثِهَا [And she had become lean, or lank in the belly, so that her girth appeared]: but some say that ذو ثلاثها [here] means her belly, and the two skins, [namely,] the upper, and that which is pared, or scraped off, after the flaying: (TA:) or, accord. to some, the phrase is حَتَّى ارْتَقَى ذو ثلاثها, meaning, so that her fœtus rose to her back; the ثلاث [here again in a copy of the A written with fet-h to the initial ث, and in like manner ثلاثها,] being the سَابِيَآء and the سَلَا and the womb. (A, TA.) You say also ↓ عَلَيْهِ ذُو ثَلَاثٍ, [so I find it written, but perhaps it should be ذو ثُلَاثٍ,] meaning, (tropical:) Upon him is a [garment of the kind called]

كِسَآء made of the wool of three sheep. (A, TA. [In the latter without any syll. sign to show that ثلاث here differs from the form in the exs. cited before.]) ثِلَاث: see ثَالِثٌ.

ثَلُوثٌ A she-camel that fills three vessels (S, M, A, L, K) such as are called أَقْدَاح, (M, L,) when she is milked, (S, K,) [i. e.,] at one milking. (A.) This is the utmost quantity that the camel yields at one milking. (IAar, M.) b2: Also A she-camel three of whose teats dry up: (S, M, A, K: [accord. to the TA, it is said in the T that such is termed ↓ مَثْلُوثٌ; but I think that this is a mistranscription:]) or that has had one of her teats cut off (IAar, T, M, L, K) by cauterization, which becomes a mark to her, (IAar, M,) and [in some copies of the K “ or ”] is milked from three teats: (T, M, L, K:) or that has three teats; (IAar, TA;) [and] so ↓ مُثَلِّثَةٌ: (T, TA:) or a she-camel having one of her teats dried up in consequence of something that has happened to it. (ISk.) ثَلِيثٌ: see ثُلُثٌ.

ثَلَاثَةٌ, also written ثَلٰثَةٌ, a noun of number, [i. e. Three,] is masc., (S, M, Msb,) and is also written and pronounced ↓ ثُلَاثَةٌ, with damm: (IAar, M, TA:) the fem. is ↓ ثَلَاثٌ, also written ثَلٰثٌ; (S, M, Msb;) [and app. ثُلَاثٌ also, mentioned above, under the head of ثُلَاثُ, but only as occurring with ذُو prefixed to it.] You say ثُلَاثَةُ رِجَالٍ [Three men]: and نِسْوَةٍ ↓ ثَلَاثُ [three women]. (Msb.) In the saying of Mohammad, ↓ رُفِعَ القَلَمُ عَنْ ثَلَاثٍ [The pen of the recording angel is withheld from three persons] ثلاث is for ثَلَاثِ أَنْفُسٍ. (Msb. [See art. رفع.]) [In like manner, ↓ ثَلَاثٌ occurs in several trads. for ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ; as, for instance, in the saying,] ثَلَاثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ حَاسَبَهُ اللّٰهُ حِسَابًا يَسِيرًا [There are three qualities: in whomsoever they be, God will reckon with him with an easy reckoning]: these are, thy giving to him who denies thee, and forgiving him who wrongs thee, and being kind to him who cuts thee off from him. (El-Jámi' es-Sagheer.) The people of El-Hijáz say, أَتَوْنِى ثَلَاثَتَهُمْ [The three of them came to me], and أَرْبَعَتَهُمْ, and so on to ten [inclusive], with nasb in every case; and in like manner in the fem., ↓ أَتَيْنَنِى ثَلَاثَهُنَّ, and أَرْبَعَهُنَّ: but others decline the word with the three vowels, making it like كُلُّهُمْ: after ten, however, only nasb is used; so that you say, أَتَوْنِى أَحَدَ عَشَرَهُمْ [and ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَهُمْ], and إِحْدَى عَشْرَتَهُنَّ [and ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَتَهُنَّ]. (S.) The saying وَلَدُ الزِّنَا شَرٌ الثَّلَاثَةِ means [The offspring of adultery, or fornication, is the worst of the three] if he do the deeds of his parents. (Mgh.) [It is said that when ثلاثة means the things numbered, not the amount of the number, it is imperfectly decl., being regarded as a proper name; and so are other ns. of number. (See ثُمَانِيةٌ.) See also سِتَّةٌ.] b2: ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ [indecl. in every case, meaning Thirteen,] is pronounced by some of the Arabs ثَلَاثَةَ عْشَرَ: and [the fem.] عَشْرَةَ ↓ ثَلَاثَ, thus in the dial. of El-Hijáz [and of most of the Arabs], is pronounced ثَلَاثَ عَشِرَةَ in the dial. of Nejd. (S in art. عشر.) ثُلَاثَةٌ: see ثَلَاثَةٌ.

الثَّلَاثَآءُ, also written الثَّلٰثَآءُ, (Lth, T, S, M,) or يَوْمُ الثَّلَاثَآءِ or الثَّلٰثَآءِ, (A, Msb, K,) and ↓ الثُّلَاثَآء, with damm, (A, K,) [meaning The third day of the week, Tuesday,] has this form for the sake of distinction; for properly it should be الثَّالِثُ: (S, M:) or it has meddeh in the place of the ة in the noun of number [ثَلَاثَةٌ] to distinguish it from the latter: (Lth, T:) [it is without tenween in every case; when indeterminate as well as when determinate; being fem.:] the pl. is ثَلَاثَاوَاتٌ (S, M, Msb) and أَثَالِثُ. (Th, M.) It has no dim. (Sb, S in art. امس.) Lh relates that Aboo-Ziyád used to say, مَضَى الثَّلَاثَآءُ بِمَا فِيهِ [Tuesday passed with what occurred in it]; making ثلاثاء sing. and masc.; [but this he did because he meant thereby يَوْمُ الثَّلَاثَآءِ; يوم being masc.:] Th is related to have said, بِمَا فِيهَا; making it fem.: and Abu-l-Jarráh used to say, مَضَتِ الثَّلَاثَآءُ بِمَا فِيهِنَّ, treating the word as a numeral. (M.) الثُّلَاثَآءُ: see الثَّلَاثَآءُ.

ثُلَاثِىٌّ a rel. n. from ثَلَاثَةٌ, anomalously formed, (M,) [or regularly formed from ثُلَاثَةٌ,] Of, or relating to, three things. (T, TA.) b2: Three cubits in length, or height; applied in this sense to a garment, or piece of cloth; (T, A;) and to a boy. (T.) b3: A word comprising, or composed of, three letters [radical only, or of three radical letters with one or more augmentative; i. e., of three radical letters with, or without, an augment]. (T, TA.) ثَلَاثُونَ, [also written ثَلٰثُونَ,] the noun of number, [meaning Thirty, and also thirtieth,] is not considered as a multiple of ثَلَاثَةٌ, but as a multiple of عَشَرَةٌ; and therefore, if you name a man ثَلَاثُونَ, you do not make the dim. to be ثَلِيِّثُون, but [you assimilate the noun from which it is formed to a pl. with و and ن from عَشَرَةٌ, or to عِشْرُونَ, and say] ↓ ثُلَيْثُونَ. (Sb, M.) ثُلَيْثُونَ: see what immediately precedes.

ثَلَاثَاوِىٌّ: One who fasts alone on the third day of the week. (IAar, Th, M.) ثُلَيِّثٌ: see ثُلَاثُ.

ثَالِثٌ [Third]: fem. with ة. (T, &c.) The final ث in الثَّالِثُ is sometimes changed into ى. (M.) You say, هُوَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةٍ [He, or it, is the third of three]: thus you say when the two [terms] agree, each with the other; but not ثَالِثٌ ثَلَاثَةً; ثالث being regarded in the former case as though it were a subst.; for you do not mean to convey by it a verbal signification, but only mean that he, or it, is one of the three, or a portion of the three: (Fr, ISk, T, S:) and in like manner you say, هِىَ ثَالِثَةُ ثَلَاثَ [She is the third of three]; but when there is among the females a male, you say, هِىَ ثَالِثَةُ ثَلَاثَةٍ, making the masc. to predominate over the fem. (T.) When the two [terms] are different, you may make the former to govern the gen. case or to govern as a verb; saying, هُوَ رَابِعُ ثَلَاثَةٍ or هُوَ رَابِعٌ ثَلَاثَةً, like as you say ضَارِبُ زَيْدٍ and ضَارِبٌ زَيْدًا; and thus you also say, هٰذَا ثَالِثُ اثْنَيْنِ and هٰذَا ثَالِثٌ اثْنَيْنِ, meaning This makes two to be three, with himself, or itself. (ISk, T, * S. [In most copies of the S, for ثَالِثٌ اثْنَيْنِ is put ثَالِثَ اثْنَيْنِ; and, in the explanation of this phrase, ثَلَّثَ اثْنَيْنِ for ثَلَثَ اثْنَيْنِ: IB has remarked that these are mistakes.]) ↓ ثِلَاث occurs in the sense of ثَالِث in a trad. cited voce ثَانٍ in art. ثنى. (Sh, T in art. ثنى.) b2: ثَالِثَةُ الأَثَافِى meansA projecting portion of a mountain, by which are placed two pieces of rock, upon all which is placed the cooking-pot. (S, K.) Hence the saying, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِثَالِثَةِ الأَثَافِى [explained in art. اثف]. (TA.) b3: [ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and ثَالِثَةَ عَشْرَةَ, the former masc. and the latter fem., meaning Thirteenth, are generally held to be indecl. in every case without the art.; but with the art., most say in the nom. الثَّالِثُ عَشَرَ, accus. الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ, and gen. الثَّالِثِ عَشَرَ; and in like manner in the fem. Accord. to some,] you say, هُوَ ثَالِثُ عَشَرَ as well as هُوَ ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ [He, or it, is a thirteenth]: he who uses the former phrase says that he means هُوَ ثَالِثُ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ, (T, S,) i. e. He, or it, is one of thirteen, (T,) and that he suppresses ثلاثه, and leaves ثالث decl. as it was; and he who uses the latter phrase says that he likewise means this, but that, suppressing ثلاثة, he gives its final vowel to the word ثالث, (T, S,) to show that there is a suppression: (S:) but IB says that the former of these two phrases is wrong; that the Koofees allow it, but that the Basrees disallow it, and pronounce it a mistake. (L.) [And accord. to J, one says, هٰذَا الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ and هٰذِهِ الثَّالِثَةَ عَشْرَةَ This is the thirteenth, or this thirteenth: for he adds,] and you say, هذَا الحَادِى عَشَرَ and الثَّانِىَ عَشَرَ and so on to twenty [exclusive]; all with fet-h; for the reason which we have mentioned: and in like manner in the fem., in which each of the two nouns is with ة. (S.) You say also, ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ ثَلَاثَةَ عَشَرَ [The thirteenth of thirteen]; and so on to تَاسِعَ عَشَرَ تِسْعَةَ عَشَرَ: and in like manner in the fem. (I' AK p. 316.) الثَّالُوثُ The Trinity.]

مَثْلَثُ and مَثْلَثَ: see ثُلَاثُ. b2: مثلث [i. e.

مَتْلَثٌ] signifies A chord [of a lute] composed of three twists: that which is of two twists is called مثنى [i. e. مَثْنًى]: or, as some say, these two words signify [respectively] the third chord and the second: their pls. are مَثَالِثُ and مَثَانٍ. (Har p.244.) مُثْلِثٌ A she-camel, and any female, bringing forth her third young one, or offspring: one should not say نَاقَةٌ ثِلْثٌ. (M.) b2: See also مُثَلِّثٌ.

مُثَلَّثٌ A thing having three angles or corners, triangular [or trilateral]; a triangle. (S, K.) You say مُثَلَّثٌ حَادٌّ [An acute-angled triangle]: and مُثَلَّثٌ قَائِمٌ [A right-angled triangle]. (TA.) And أَرْضٌ مُثَلَّثَةٌ A three-sided piece of land. (TA.) b2: A thing composed of three layers or strata, or of three distinct fascicles or the like; (M, TA;) [see also مَثْلُوثٌ;] and in like manner what are composed of four, and more, to ten [inclusive], are called by similar epithets: (TA:) or a thing of three folds. (Lth, T.) b3: [As a conventional term in lexicology, A word having a letter which has any of the three vowels: ex. gr., بَدْأَةٌ is مُثَلَّثَةُ البَآءِ; i. e., it is written بَدْأَةٌ and بُدْأَةٌ and بِدْأَةٌ. As such also, A verb having its عَيْن (or middle radical letter) movent by any of the three vowels: ex. gr., بَهَأَ بِهِ is مُثَلَّثٌ; i. e., it is written بَهَأَ and بَهُؤَ and بَهِئَ. And as such, مُثَلَّثَةٌ (not مُثْلَثَةٌ) signifies Three-pointed; having three diacritical points: it is an epithet added to ثَآء, to prevent its being mistaken for بَآء or تَآء or يَآء.]

b4: Wine (شَرَاب) cooked until the quantity of two thirds of it has gone; (S, K;) the expressed juice of grapes so cooked. (Mgh.) b5: And A certain electuary, or confection, of aromatics, or perfumes. (KL.) مُثَلِّثٌ A calumniator, or slanderer, of his brother [or fellow] to his prince; because he destroys three; namely, himself and his brother and his prince: (Sh, T, M, * K:) as also ↓ مُثْلِثٌ; (K;) or thus accord. to Aboo-'Owáneh. (Sh, T.) b2: See also ثِلْثٌ, last sentence: b3: and see ثَلُوثٌ.

مِثْلَاثٌ from ثُلُثٌ is like مِرْبَاعٌ from رُبْعٌ. (M.) See ثُلُثٌ and مِرْبَاعٌ.

مَثْلُوثٌ Property of which a third part has been taken. (A.) b2: [Applied to a verse,] That of which a third has been taken away: (M, K:) whatever is مَثْلُوث is مَنْهُوك: (TA:) or the former word signifies as above, and the latter signifies that of which two thirds have been taken away: this is the opinion of the authors on versification with respect to the metres called رَجَز and مُنْسَرِح: (M, TA:) the مثلوث in poetry is that whereof two feet out of six have gone. (TA.) b3: A rope composed of three strands (Lth, T, S, M, A, K) twisted together, (Lth, T, A,) and in like manner woven, or plaited: (Lth, T:) and ropes composed of four, five, six, seven, and nine, strands, but not of eight nor of ten, are similarly called. (M.) b4: A garment of the kind called كِسَآء woven of wool and camels' hair (وَبَر) and goats' hair (شَعَر). (Fr, T.) b5: مَزَادَةٌ مَثْلَوثَةٌ A مزادة [or leathern water-bag] made of three skins. (T. S, A, K.) b6: أَرْضٌ مَثْلُوثَةٌ Land turned over three times for sowing or cultivating. (A.) b7: See also ثَلُوثٌ.

(L.) b3: توحّد بِرَأْيِهِ He was, or became, alone, without any to share, or participate with him, in his opinion. (S, L.) b4: See 1.8 إِوْتَحَدَ [اِتَّحَدَ It was, or became, one. And hence, اِتَّحَدَ مَعَهُ He was, or became, one with him in interests &c.] b2: اتّحد It (a number of things, or substances, two and more, KT,) became one. (KT, KL.) See 1.10 إِسْتَوْحَدَ see 1.

حِدَةٌ: see وَحْدٌ. b2: فَعَلَهُ مِنْ ذَاتِ حِدَتِهِ, and عَلَى ذات حدته, and من ذِى حدته, and من ذات نَفْسِهِ, and من ذات رَأْيِهِ, He did it of himself; of his own accord; of his own judgment. (Az, L, K.) وَحْدٌ: see 1, and وَحِيدٌ. b2: رَأَيْتُهُ وَحْدَهُ (S, L, K) I saw him alone. (S, L.) وحد is here an inf. n., having no dual nor pl. (K.) The Koofees hold it to be in the acc. case as an adv. n. of place: the Basrees, as an inf. n., in every instance; as though thou saidst أَوْحَدْتُهُ بِرُؤْيَتِى إِبحَادًا, meaning “ I saw none save him,” and then substituted وحده: or, as Abu-l-'Abbás says, it may mean the man's being himself alone; as though thou saidst رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا مُنْفَرِدًا اِنْفِرَادًا, and then substituted وحده. (S.) Or it is in the acc. case as a denotative of state accord. to the Basrees [and the grammarians in general]; not as an inf. n., J being in error in what he says on this matter: (IB, K:) the Basrees hold it to be a noun occupying the place of an inf. n. in the acc. case as a denotative of state; like جَآءَ زَيْدٌ رَكْضًا, meaning رَاكِضًا: (IB:) excepting some of them, as Yoo, who holds it to be in the acc. case as an adv. n. of place, for عَلَى وَحْدِهِ, (IB, K,) like عِنْدَهُ: (TA:) and there is a third opinion, that of Hishám; that it is in the acc. case as an inf. n. (L.) Or, (accord. to IAar, L,) it is a noun used as a noun absolutely: (L, K:) so in the dial. of the Benoo-Temeem: (Msb:) you say جَلَسَ وَحْدَهُ, and عَلَى وَحْدِهِ, and جَلَسَا عَلَى وَحْدِ هِمَا, and وَحْدَيْهِمَا, and جَلَسُوا عَلَى وَحْدِهِمْ, [He sat alone, and they two sat alone, and they sat alone]. (L, K.) When not preceded by a prefixed n. [or a prep.], it is always in the acc. case: (Lth, L:) you say, لَا إِلَاَه إِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهُ [There is no deity but God alone]: and مَرَرْتُ بِزَيْدٍ وَحْدَهُ [I passed by Zeyd alone]: (L:) [excepting in a few cases, such as the phrases]

قُلْنَا هٰذَا الأَمْرَ وَحْدَيْنَا [We two alone said this thing], and قَالَتَاهُ وَحْدَيْهُمَا [They two women alone said it]; mentioned by Az. (L.) Yousay also, هٰذَا عَلَى وَحْدِهِ, and ↓ عَلَى حِدَتِهِ, This is by itself; (L, K;) and هُمَا عَلَى حِدَتِهِمَا They two are by themselves: and هُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِمْ They are by themselves: (L:) and أَعْطِ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ

مَنْهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِ Give thou to every one of them by himself; syn. على حِيَالِهِ. (S.) The ة in حِدَةٌ is a substitute for the و (S, L) which is cut off from the beginning. (L.) b3: وَحْدٌ, (K,) or ↓ وَحَدٌ, (L,) A wild animal alone, by itself, or apart from others. (L, K.) b4: وَحَدٌ, (K,) or ↓ وَحَدٌ, (L,) A man whose lineage and origin are unknown. (Lth, L, K.) b5: وَحْد is used as the complement of a prefixed n. only in the following phrases: (A'Obeyd, S, L:) هُوَ نَسِيجُ وَحْدِهِ, which is an expression of praise; (S, L, K;) meaning, (tropical:) He is one unequalled; one who has no second: (L:) or he is a man of right judgment: you say also هُمَا نَسِيجَا وَحْدِهِمَا, and هُمْ نُسَجَآءُ وَحْدِهِمْ, and هِىَ نَسِيجَةُ وَحْدِهَا, and هُنَّ نَسَائِجُ وَحْدِهِنَّ: (Lth, L:) [see art. نسج:] it is as though you said نَسِيجُ إِفْرَادٍ: you put وحده in the place of an inf. n. in the gen. case: (S:) and رَجُلُ وَحْدِهِ, (IAar, L,) and رُجَيْلُ وَحْدِهِ, (S, L,) [A man unequalled; who has no second, and a little man (probably meaning the contr.) &c.]: and قَرِيعُ وَحْدِهِ A man with whom no one contends in excellence: (Lth, L:) and عُيَيْرُ وَحْدِهِ, and جُحَيْشُ وَحْدِهِ, which are expressions of dispraise; (S, L, K;) meaning, (tropical:) One who does not consult, nor mix with, any one, and who is contemptible and weak: (Sh, L:) وَحْد being used in the manner of an inf. n., not being an epithet nor an enunciative so as to be in concordance with the preceding noun, would be more properly in the acc. case; but the Arabs use it in these instances as the complement of a prefixed n.: (Lth, L:) these expressions are indeterminate: for the Arabs say, رُبَّ نَسِيجِ وَحْدِهِ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ (tropical:) [Few unequalled men have I seen]. (Hishám, Fr., L.) وَحَدٌ: see وَحْدٌ and وَحِيدٌ.

وَحِدٌ: see وَحِيدٌ.

وَحْدَةٌ The state of being alone, or apart from others; solitariness; solitude. (Sb, S.) See 1. b2: وَحْدَةُ القَبْرِ [The solitude of the grave]. (A.) b3: [لَيْلَةُ الوَحْدَةِ The night of solitude; the first night after burial: so called because the soul is believed to remain in the grave during this night, and then to depart to the place appointed for the residence of good souls until the last day, or to the appointed prison in which wicked souls await their final doom. See also لَيْلَةٌ الوَحْشَةِ.]

وَحْدَانِيَّةٌ The unity of God: (L, K: *) as also أَحْدِيَّةٌ. (Msb.) وَحْدَانِيٌّ One who is singular in his religious opinions; who separates himself from the general body of believers: a rel. n. from الوَحْدَةُ; the ا and ن being added to give intensiveness to the signification. (L.) وُحَادَ: see مَوْحَدَ.

وَحِيدٌ (S, L, Msb, K) and ↓ مُتَوَحِّدٌ (L, K) and ↓ وَحَدٌ and ↓ وَحِدٌ (S, L, Msb, K) and ↓ وَحْدٌ (M, L) and ↓ وَاحِدٌ (L) A man alone; by himself; apart from others; solitary; lonely: (S, M, L, Msb, K;) as also أَحَدٌ: (M, L, K:) or, accord. to Az, one should not say رَجُلٌ أَحَدٌ, nor دِرْهَمٌ أَحَدٌ, nor شَىْءٌ أَحَدٌ, though some of the lexicologists assert that أَحَدٌ is originally وَحَدٌ: for أَحَدٌ is an epithet applied to God alone: (L:) the fem. epithet used in this sense is وَحِدَةٌ: (K:) and ↓ وَاحِدٌ in this sense receives the dual form: and the pl. is وُحْدَانٌ and أَحْدَانٌ and وِحَادٌ. (L.) رَجُلٌ وَحِيدٌ A man who has no one to cheer him by his society, conversation, or company. And ↓ رَجُلٌ مُتَوَحِّدٌ A man who remains alone, by himself, apart from others, or solitary, not mixing with other people, not sitting with them. (L.) See also وَحْدٌ.

وَاحِدٌ One; the first of the numbers: (S, L, Msb, K:) syn. [in many cases, which will be shown below,] with أَحَدٌ: (K:) [and one alone: a single person or thing:] fem. وَاحِدَةٌ: (L, Msb:) it sometimes receives the dual form; (L, K;) as in the expression إِلْتَقَيْنَا وَاحِدَيْنِ [We met, we being each of us one alone]; cited from a poet by IAar: or the dual form pertains to it in another sense, explained below, namely “ alone: ” (L:) pl. وَاحِدُونَ (S, L, K) and وُحْدَانٌ and أُحْدَانٌ; (S, L;) in the last of which, أ is substituted for و because of the dammeh: (L:) one says, أَنْتُمْ حَىٌّ وَاحِدٌ, and حَىٌّ وَاحِدُونَ, (Ye are one tribe, L) like as one says شِرْذِمَةٌ قَلِيلُونَ: (Fr, S, L:) آحَادٌ may also be a pl. of وَاحِدٌ [and therefore originally أَوْحَادٌ,] like as أَشْهَادٌ is pl. of شَاهِدٌ. (Th, Msb.) Its proper signification is A thing having no subdivision: and it is secondarily applied to any existing thing; so that there is no number to which it may not be applied as an epithet; wherefore one says, عَشَرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ [One ten], and مِائَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ [One hundred]. (Er-Rághib.) It is interchangeable for أَحَدٌ when used as an epithet applied to God; and in certain nouns of number. [See art. أحد.] In most cases differing from these two, there is a difference in usage. The latter is used in affirmative phrases as a prefixed noun only, governing the noun which follows it in the gen. case; and is used absolutely in negative phrases: whereas the former is used in affirmative phrases as a prefixed n. and otherwise. (Msb.) [See, again, art. أَحد.] b2: ↓ لَسْتُ فِى هٰذَا الأَمْرِ بأَوِْحَدَ I am not alone, without a parallel, or watch, in this affair: (S, * L, K: *) or simply, I am not alone in it. (T, L.) The fem. وَحْدَآءُ is not used. (S, L.) b3: أُحْدَانٌ, the pl. of ↓ اوحد, is applied by a poet to dogs having no equals or matches. (S, L.) b4: فُلَانٌ لَا وَاحِدَ لَهُ Such a one has no equal, like, parallel, or match. (S, M, L.) b5: Also, One that has no equal; one unequalled. (L.) b6: فُلَانٌ وَاحِدُ دَهْرِهِ Such a person is the unequalled one of his age. (S, L.) And in like manner, (TA,) أَهْلِ زَمَانِهِ ↓ فُلَانٌ أَوْحَدُ (S, L) Such a person is the unequalled one of the people of his time. (TA.) The pl. of ↓ اوحد [as well as of واحد in the same sense] is أُحْدَانٌ, (originally وُحْدَانٌ, S) like as سُودَانٌ is pl. أَسْوَدُ. (S, L.) b7: وَاحِدُ أُمِّهِ [An unequalled son of his mother], is an indeterminate expression, like نَسِيجُ وَحْدِهِ, q. v. (Hishám, Fr. L.) b8: Also, A man pre-eminent in knowledge or science, or in valour in war, (L, K [in the CK, for بَأْس is put ناس]) or in other qualities; as though having no equal, and thus being alone: (L:) pl. وُحْدَانٌ and أُحْدانٌ. (L, K.) b9: الوَاحِدُ and الأَحَدُ (T, L) and ↓ الأَوْحَدُ and ↓ المُتَوَحِّدُ, (M, L, K,) epithets applied to God, The One, the Sole; He whose attribute is unity: (M, L, K:) or the first signifies the One in essence, who has no like nor equal; and the second, the One in attributes, beside whom there is no other: or the first, the One who is not susceptible of division into parts or portions, nor of duplication, and who has no equal nor like: (TL:) or the One who has ever been alone, without companion: (IAth, L:) and there is no being but God to whom the first and second of these epithets are applicable together, or to whom the second is applicable alone. (T, L.) See also أَحَدٌ, in art. أحد. b10: الإِنْسَانُ وَالفَرَسُ وَاحِدٌ فِى الجِنْسِ The human being and the horse are one in genus. And زَيْد وَعَمرْوٌ وَاحِدٌ فِى النَّوْعِ Zeyd and 'Amr are one in species. (Er-Rághib.) b11: وَاحِدٌ Singular, as opposed to plural: pl. وُحْدَانٌ. (The lexicons, passim.) b12: أَصْحَابِى وَأَصْحَابُكَ وَاحِدٌ [Thy companions and my companions are one and the same]. And الجُلُوسُ وَالقُعُود وَاحِدٌ [الجلوس and القعود are one and the same]. (L.) b13: See وَحِيدٌ. b14: حَادِىَ عَشَرَ, masc., and حَادِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ, fem., Eleventh. In this case, [and in similar instances, as حَادِى وَعِشْرُونَ Twentyfirst, &c.,] حادى and حادية are formed by transposition from وَاحِدٌ and وَاحِدَةٌ, by putting the first radical letter after the second. [When without the article, it is indecl.: but when rendered determinate by the article, the first word is decl.] You say, هُوَ حَادِىَ عَشَرَهُمْ [He is the eleventh of them]: and اليَوْمُ الحَادِى عَشَرَ [The eleventh day]: and اللَّيْلَةُ الحَادِيَةُ عَشْرَةَ [The eleventh night]. (ISd, L.) [The rules respecting حَادِىَ عَشَرَ and its fem. are the same as those respecting ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and its fem., explained in art. ثلث, q. v.] b15: بِوَاحِدَةٍ signifies i. q. فَقَطْ: and is often used in the sense of البَتَّةَ. (MF, voce ذُرُّوحٌ.) إِحْدَى: see art. أحد.

أُحَادَ: see مُوْحَدَ.

أَوْحَدُ: see وَاحِدٌ.

مُوحِدٌ A ewe bringing forth, or that brings forth, one ewe only. (S, K.) [See مُغْرِدٌ.]

مَوْحَدَ and ↓ وُحَادَ and أُحَادَ [used adverbially] are imperfectly decl. because of their having the quality of an epithet and deviating from their original form, (S, L,) which is وَاحِدًا: (L, K:) or because they differ from their original both as to the letter and the meaning; the original word being changed as above stated, and the meaning being changed to وَاحِدًا وَاحِدًا: (S, L:) you say دَخَلُوا مَوْحَدَ مَوْحَدَ, (S, L, K,) [and وُحَادَ وُحَادَ,] and أُحَادَ أُحَادَ, (L, K,) They entered one [and] one, [one and one]; or one [by] one, [one by one]; (K;) or one at a time; one after another. (S, L.) مُوَحَّدَةٌ, (not مُوحَدَةٌ,) conv. term in lexicology, Having one diacritical point; one-pointed: an epithet added to باء to prevent its being mistaken for تاء, ثاء, or ياء. (The lexicons, passim.)]

مِيحَادٌ One of several hills, such as are called أَكَمَات, separate or remote, one from another: pl. مَوَاحِيدُ. (L, K.) F remarks, that J is in error in saying, المِيحَادُ مِنَ الوَاحِدِ كَالمِعْشَارِ مِنَ العَشَرَةِ: (TA:) but the meaning of this is, that it denotes one part or portion; like as مِعْشَارٌ signifies one of ten: (L:) [i. e., the former signifies one of several things whereof each is alone, or by itself:] and the same explanation is given by [several] old authors. (TA.) [In one copy of the S, instead of العَشَرَة, I find العُشْر; which affords a good sense, i. e., that ميحاد, is syn. with وَاحِدٌ; and may be the true reading.]

مُتَوَحِّدٌ: see وَحِيدٌ and وَاحِدٌ.
