ثن

ى1 ثَنَاهُ, (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) said in the K to be like سَعَى, implying that the aor. is ثَنَىَ, but this is a mistake, (MF, TA,) [for it is well known that] the aor. is ثَنِىَ, (Msb,) inf. n. ثَنْىٌ, (S, M, Msb, &c.,) He doubled it, or folded it; (T;) he turned one part of it upon another; (M, K;) he bent it; (T, S, Mgh, Msb, TA;) he drew, or contracted, one of its two extremities to [or towards] the other; or joined, or adjoined, one of them to the other; thus bending it; (Mgh;) namely, a stick, or branch, or twig, (Mgh,) or a thing, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) of any kind. (T.) One says of a man with the mention of whom one begins, in relation to an honourable or a praiseworthy quality, or in relation to science or knowledge, بِهِ تُثْنَى الخَنَاصِرُ, (T,) meaning With [the mention of] him, (T, and Msb in art. خصر,) among others of his class, (Msb ib.,) the little fingers are bent. (T, and Msb ubi suprá. [For the Arabs, in counting with the fingers, first bend the tip of the little finger down to the palm of the hand; then, the tip of the next; and so on; bending the thumb down upon the other fingers for five; and then continue by extending the fingers, one after another, again commencing with the little finger.]) And a poet says, فَإِنْ عُدَّ مَجْدٌ أَوْ قَدِيمٌ لِمَعْشَرٍ

فَقَوْمِى بِهِمْ تُثْنَى هُنَاكَ لأَصَابِعُ [And if glory, or any old ground of pretension to honour, be reckoned as belonging to a body of men, it is my people, with the mention of them, in that case, the fingers are bent]; meaning that they are reckoned as the best; (IAar, M;) for the best are not many. (M.) One says also, ثَنَى وَرِكَهُ فَنَزَلَ [lit. He bent his hip, and alighted], meaning he alighted from his beast. (T.) and ثَنَى رِجْلَهُ عَنْ دَابَّتِهِ, meaning He drew up his leg to his thigh, and alighted. (M.) But قَبْلَ أَنْ يَثْنِىَ رِجْلَهُ, occurring in a trad., means Before he turned his leg from the position in which it was in the pronouncing of the testimony of the faith. (IAth.) ثَنَى صَدْرَهُ, aor. and inf. n. as above, [lit. He folded his breast, or bosom,] means (assumed tropical:) he concealed enmity in his breast, or bosom: or he folded up what was in it, in concealment. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xi. 5], أَلَا إِنَّهُمْ يَثْنَونَ صُدُورَهُمْ, meaning [Now surely] they infold and conceal [in their bosoms] enmity and hatred: (Fr, T:) or they bend their breasts, or bosoms, and fold up, and conceal, what is therein: (Zj, T:) I'Ab read, صُدُورُهُمْ ↓ تَثْنَوْنِى: you say, اِثْنَوْنَى صَدْرُهُ عَلَى البَغْضَآءِ, meaning his breast, or bosom, infolded, or concealed, vehement hatred: (T:) or the phrase in the Kur, accord. to the former reading, means they bend, or turn, their breasts, or bosoms, from the truth; they turn themselves away therefrom: or they incline their breasts, or bosoms, to unbelief, and enmity to the Prophet: or they turn their backs: (Bd:) [for] b2: ثَنَاهُ, (T, S, Msb, TA,) aor. as above, (Msb,) and so the inf. n., (T, Msb, TA,) also signifies He turned him, or it, away or back. (T, S, Msb, TA.) Also He turned him, or turned him away or back, (Lth, T, S,) from the course that he desired to pursue, (Lth, T,) or from the object of his want: (S:) or you say, ثَنَاهُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ, (Mgh,) and عَنْ حَاجَتِهِ, (TA,) and عَنْ مُرَادِهِ, (Msb,) he turned him, or turned him away or back, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) from his course, (Mgh,) and from the object of his want, (TA,) and from the object of his desire. (Msb.) One says also, فُلَانٌ لَا يُثْنَى عَنْ قِرْنِهِ وَلَا عَنْ وَجْهِهِ [Such a one will not be turned, or turned away or back, from his antagonist, nor from his course]. (T.) b3: Also He tied it; or tied it in a knot or knots; or tied it firmly, fast, or strongly. (TA.) You say, ثَنَيْتُ البَعِيرَ بِثِنَايَيْنِ, meaning, accord. to As, as related by A'Obeyd, I bound both the fore legs of the camel with two bonds: but correctly, I bound the two fore legs of the camel with the two ends of a rope; the last word meaning a single rope: (T:) عَقَلْتُهُ بِثَنْيَيْنِ means I bound one of his fore shanks to the arm with two ties, or tyings. (T, M.) b4: ثَنْىٌ [as inf. n. of ثَنَى] also signifies The act of drawing, or joining, or adjoining, one [thing] to another; (Lth, T, Mgh;) and so ↓ تَثْنِيَةٌ [inf. n. of ثنّى]. (Mgh.) b5: [As ثَلَثَهُمْ signifies “ he took the third of their property,” and “ he made them, with himself, three,” and other verbs of number are used in similar senses, so] ثَنَاهُ signifies He took the half of their property: or he drew, or adjoined, to him what became with him two: (TA:) or ثَنَيْتُهُ, (S, Msb,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (Msb,) signifies I became (S, Msb) to him, (S,) or with him, (Msb,) a second; (S, Msb;) or I was a second to him, or it: (Er-Rághib:) or one should not say thus, but that Az says, (M,) هُوَ وَاحِدٌ فَاثْنِهِ (M, K [but in the latter, هٰذَا in the place of هُوَ, and in the CK, ↓ فأَثْنِه,]) he is one, and be thou a second to him. (M, K.) b6: ثَنَى, aor. as above, also signifies He made eleven to be twelve. (T in art. ثلث.) b7: ثَنَى الأَرْضَ, inf. n. as above, He turned over the land, or ground, twice for sowing, or cultivating: (Mgh, and A * and TA * in art. ثلث:) and ↓ تَثْنِيَةٌ [inf. n. of ثنّى] and ثُنُيَانٌ [app. another inf. n. of ثَنَى, and app. correctly written ثُنْيَانٌ] are often used by [the Imám] Mohammad in the sense of ثَنْىٌ: he who explains تَثْنِيَةٌ as signifying the turning over [the land, or ground,] for sowing, or cultivating, after the harvest, or as signifying the restoring land to its owner turned over for sowing, or cultivating, commits an inadvertence. (Mgh.) b8: فَاثْنِنِى, occurring in a poem of Kutheiyir 'Azzeh, is explained as meaning Then give thou to me a second time: (M, TA:) but this is strange: (TA:) [ISd says,] I have not seen it in any other instance. (M.) b9: لَا يَثْنِى وَلَا يَثْلِثُ, (a phrase mentioned by IAar, M,) or وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ ↓ لَا يُثَنِّى, or وَلَا يُثْلِثُ ↓ لَا يُثْنِى: see 1 in art. ثلث.2 ثنّاهُ, (S, M, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَثْنِيَةٌ, (S, K,) He made it two; or called it two. (S, M, MS b, K.) [Hence,] ثَنَّى means also He counted two; whence the saying, فُلَانٌ يُثَنِّى وَلَا يُثَلِّثُ; see art. ثلث: (A and TA in art. ثلث:) [and so, app., ↓ اِثَّنَى; for] a poet says, بَدَا بِأَبِى ثُمَّ اثَّنَى بِأَبِى أَبِى

[which seems plainly to mean He began with my father; then counted two with the father of my father]. (M.) b2: [He dualized it, namely, a word; made it to have a dual. b3: He marked it with two points, namely, a ت or a ى.] b4: He repeated it; iterated it. (Mgh.) See 1, in three places. b5: ثنّى لِامْرَأَتِهِ, or عِنْدَهَا, He remained two nights with his wife: and in like manner the verb is used in relation to any saying or action. (TA voce سَبَّعَ.) b6: ثنّى بِالأَمْرِ He did the thing immediately after another thing. (T.) b7: تَثْنِيَةٌ also signifies A man's requesting others [who are playing with him at the game called المَيْسِر] to return, for [a chance of] the stakes, his arrow, when it has been successful, and he has been secure, and has won. (Lh, M.) A2: See also 4.4 أَثْنَتْ, or ↓ اِثْتَنَتْ, She brought forth her second offspring. (TA in art. بكر.) b2: See also 1, in two places. b3: اثنى, (inf. n. إِثْنَآءٌ, TA,) He shed his tooth called the ثَنِيَّة; (S, Mgh, Msb;) he became what is termed ثُنِىّ; said of a camel [&c.]: (M, K:) he shed his رَوَاضِع [pl. of رَاضِعَة which is the same, in this case, as ثَنِيَّة]; said of a horse [&c.]. (IAar, T.) A2: اثنى عَلَيْهِ, (T, S, M, Msb, K, &c.,) inf. n. إِثْنَآءٌ; (T;) and ↓ ثنّى, inf. n. تَثْنِيَةٌ, accord. to the K, but this is a mistake for ↓ ثبّى, inf. n. تَثْبِيَةٌ; (TA;) He praised, eulogized, commended, or spoke well of, him: and he dispraised, censured, discommended, or spoke ill of, him: (T, * M, Msb, K:) the object is either God or a man: (T:) or it has the former meaning only: (M, K;) or the former meaning is the more common: (Msb:) accord. to IAar, اثنى signifies he spoke, or said, well, or good; and ill, or evil; and انثى, “he defamed,” or “did so in the absence of the object;” and “he disdained, scorned, shunned, disliked, or hated,” a thing: (T:) and you say, اثنى عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا [He spoke, or said, well, or good, of him]; (S, and TA from a trad.;) and شَرًّا [ill, or evil], also. (TA from the same trad.) One says also, أَثْنَيْتُ فِعْلَهُ [I praised his deed]; meaning عَلَى فِعْلِهِ; or because أَثْنَى means مَدَحَ. (Ham p. 696.) 5 تثنّى: see 7. b2: Also He affected an inclining of his body, or a bending, or he inclined his body, or bent, from side to side; syn. تَمَايَلَ: (Har pp. 269 and 271:) and he walked with an elegant and a proud and self-conceited gait, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side; or with a twisting of the back, and with extended steps; syn. تَبَخْتَرَ. (Idem p. 271.) Yousay, تثنّى فِى مِشْيَتِهِ (S, and Har p. 269) He affected an inclining of his body, or a bending, or he inclined his body, or bent, from side to side, in his gait. (Har ib.) [And in like manner, and more commonly, one says of a woman.]7 انثنى, (T, S, M, K,) and ↓ تثنّى, and ↓ اِثَّنَى, of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ, (M, K,) originally اِثْتَنَى, (M,) and ↓ اِثْنَوْنَى, (T, S, K,) of the measure اِفْعَوْعَلَ, (T, S,) It was, or became, doubled, or folded; (T;) it had one part turned upon another; (M, K;) it was, or became, bent. (T, S.) b2: [Hence,] انثنى signifies also He turned, or turned away or back, (Har pp. 44 and 120,) عَنْ أَمْرٍ from an affair, after having determined to do it. (Lth in TA art. زمع.) 8 إِثْتَنَىَ see 7, and 4: b2: and see also 2.10 استثناهُ He set it aside as excluded; or he excluded it, or excepted it; مِنْ شَىْءٍ from a thing; syn. حَاشَاهُ: (M:) or he set it aside, or apart, for himself: and in the conventional language of the grammarians, [he excepted it; i. e.] he excluded it from the predicament in which another thing was included, or in which other things were included: (Mgh:) الاِسْتِثْنَآءُ [in grammar] is the turning away the agent from reaching the object of the اِسْتِثْنَآء: (Msb:) in the case of an oath [and the like], it means the saying إِنْ شَآءَ اللّٰهُ [If God will]. (Mgh.) [See ثُنْيَا.]12 اثنونى: see 7; and see also 1.

ثِنْىٌ A duplication, or doubling, of a thing: (T, * S, Msb:) pl. أَثْنَآءٌ; (S, Msb;) or the sing. may be ↓ ثَنًى. (Msb.) b2: A folding: so in the saying, أَنْفَذْتُ كَذَا ثِنْىَ كِتَابِى, (S, TA,) or فِى ثِنْىِ كِتَابِىِ (so in a copy of the S,) i. e., فِى طَيِّهِ [lit. I sent, or transmitted, such a thing within the folding of my writing, or letter; meaning infolded, or enclosed, in it; and included in it]. (S, TA.) b3: A duplicature, or fold, of a garment, or piece of cloth: (TA:) or what is turned back of the extremities thereof: (T:) pl. as above: whence, in a trad. of Aboo-Hureyreh, كَانَ يَثْنِيهِ عَلَيْهِ أَثْنَآءً مِنْ سَعَتِهِ [He used to fold it upon him in folds by reason of its width]; meaning the garment. (TA.) [Hence the saying,] وَكَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى أَثْنَآءِ كَذَا, i. e., فى غُضُونِهِ [lit and that was in the folds, meaning, in the midst, of such a thing, or such an affair, or event]. (TA.) And جَاؤُوا فِى أَثْنَآءِ الأَمْرِ They came in the midst of the affair, or event. (Msb.) [And hence, app.,] مَضَى ثِنْىٌ مِنَ اللَّيْل An hour, or a period, or a short portion, of the night passed; (M, K; *) syn. سَاعَةٌ, (Th, M, K,) or وَقْتٌ. (Lh, M, K.) [See also what is said below respecting its pl. in relation to a night.] b4: Also sing. of أَثْنَآءٌ meaning The parts of a thing that are laid together like the strands of a rope, or that are laid one upon another as layers or strata, or side by side as the things that compose a bundle; (قُوَاهُ, and طَاقَاتُهُ; [rendered by Freytag “ virtutes, facultates rei; ”]) and ↓ مَثَانٍ, of which the sing. is ↓ مَثْنَاةٌ and ↓ مِثْنَاةٌ, signifies the same. (M, K.) b5: Also A bending of the neck of a sheep, or goat, not in consequence of disease: (K: but in the M, ثَنْىٌ [inf. n. of 1]:) and a serpent's bending, or folding, of itself: (M, K:) and also (thus in the M, but in the K “or”) a curved part of a serpent that has folded itself; (M, K;) pl. أَثْنَآءٌ, (M,) i. e. the folds of a coiled serpent. (T.) The pl. is used metaphorically [as though meaning (tropical:) The turns] of a night. (M. [But see explanations of the sing. as used in relation to a night in what precedes.] b6: A part that is bent, or folded, or doubled, of a وِشَاح [q. v.]; (TA;) pl. as above: (T, TA:) and so of a rope: (S:) or a portion of the extremity of a rope folded, or doubled, [so as to form a loop,] for binding therewith the pastern of the fore leg of a beast, to serve as a tether. (T.) Tarafeh says, لَعَمْرُكَ إِنَّ المَوْتَ مَا أَخْطَأَ الفَتَى

لَكَالطِّوَلِ المُرْخَى وَثِنْيَاهُ بِالْيَدِ [By thy life, death, while missing the strong young man, is like the tether that is slackened while the two folded extremities thereof are upon the fore leg, or in the hand: see طِوَلٌ]: (T, S:) he means that the young man must inevitably die, though his term of life be protracted; like as the beast, though his tether be lengthened and slackened, cannot escape, being withheld by its two extremities: (so in a copy of the T:) or by ثنياه he means its extremity; using the dual form because it is folded, or doubled, upon the pastern, and tied with a double tie: (so in another copy of the T:) or he means, while its two extremities are in the hand of its owner: (EM p. 91:) by ما اخطأ, he means فِى إِخْطَائِهِ, (S in art. طول,) or مُدَّةَ إِخْطَائِهِ: and the ل [prefixed to the ك of comparison] is for corroboration. (EM ubi suprá.) You say also, رَبَّقَ أَثْنَآءَ الحَبْلِ, meaning He made loops in the middle of the rope to put upon the necks of the young lambs or kids. (T.) b7: Also A bend, or place of bending, of a valley, (S, M, * K,) and of a mountain: (S:) pl. as above: (M, K:) and ↓ مَثَانٍ [likewise] signifies the bends of a valley. (T, K.) A2: A she-camel that has brought forth twice, (S,) or two, (M,) or a second time: (K:) or, as some say, that has brought forth once: but the former is more analogical: (M:) one does not say ثِلْثٌ [as meaning “ that has brought forth thrice ”], nor use any similar epithet above this: (S, TA:) pl. ثُنَآءٌ, like ظُؤَارٌ pl. of ظِئْرٌ, accord. to Sb, (M, TA,) and أَثْنَآءٌ accord. to others: (TA:) in like manner it is applied to a woman, (S, M,) metaphorically: (M:) and to the she-camel's second young one: (S, M:) accord. to As, as related by A'Obeyd, a she-camel that has brought forth once: also that has brought forth twice: [so says Az, but he adds,] but what I have heard from the Arabs is this; that they term a she-camel that has brought forth her first young one بِكْر; and her first young one, her بِكْر; and when she brought forth a second, she is termed ثِنْىٌ; and her young one, her ثِنْى: and this is what is correct. (T.) [Hence the saying,] مَا هٰذَا الأَمْرُ مِنْكَ بِكْرًا وَلَا ثِنْيًا (tropical:) This thing, or affair, is not thy first nor thy second. (A and TA in art. بكر.) b2: See also ثُنْيَانٌ.

ثَنًى: see ثِنْىٌ, first sentence.

ثُنًى: see ثِنًى: b2: and see also ثُنْيَانٌ: b3: and اِثْنَانِ.

ثِنًى The repetition of a thing; doing it one time after another: (Aboo-Sa'eed, TA:) or a thing, or an affair, done twice: (S, Msb, TA:) this is the primary signification: (TA:) and ↓ ثُنًى signifies the same. (IB, TA.) It is said in a trad., لَا ثِنَى فِى الصَّدَقَةِ There shall be no repetition in the taking of the poor-rate; (IAth, TA;) [i. e.] the poor-rate shall not be taken twice in one year: (As, Ks, T, S, M, Mgh, K:) or two she-camels shall not be taken in the place of one for the poor-rate: (M, IAth, K: *) or there shall be no retracting of an alms; or no revoking it: (Mgh, K, * TA:) this last is the meaning accord. to Aboo-Sa'eed, (Mgh, TA,) i. e. Ed-Dareeree, (Mgh,) who, in explaining this trad., as relating to the giving an alms to a man and then desiring to take it back, says he does not deny that ثِنًى

has the meaning first assigned to it above in this paragraph. (TA.) b2: See also ثُنْيانٌ: b3: and اِثْنَانِ.

(S, K.) ثُنْيَا a subst. from اِسْتِثْنَآءٌ; (S, Mgh, Msb;) as also ↓ ثَنْوَى; the former with damm, and the latter with fet-h: (S, Msb:) both are syn. with اِسْتِثْنَآءٌ [used as a subst., meaning An exception]; (T;) as also ↓ ثَنِيَّةٌ, (T, K,) or ↓ ثُنْيَةٌ, (accord. to one copy of the T,) and ↓ مَثْنَوِيَّةٌ: (T:) so in the saying, حَلَفَ يَمِينًا لَيْسَ فِيهَا ثُنْيَا and ↓ ثُنْوَى and ↓ ثَنِيَّةٌ or ↓ ثُنْيَةٌ and ↓ مَثْنَوِيَّةٌ [he swore an oath in which there was not an exception]; for when the swearer says, “By God I will not do such and such things unless God will otherwise,” he reverses what he [first] says by God's willing otherwise: (T: [see 10:]) [and so in the saying,] ↓ حَلْفَةٌ غَيْرُ ذَاتِ مَثْنَوِيَّةٍ a swearing not made lawful [by an exception]: (M:) [so too in the saying,] ↓ بَيْعٌ مَا فِيهِ مَثْنَوِيَّةٌ [and ثُنْيَا &c.] (K in art. لحج) a sale in which there is not an exception: (TA in that art.:) or ثُنْيَا signifies a thing excepted, (M, Mgh, K,) whatever it be; (K) as also ↓ ثَنْوَى, (M, K,) with و substituted for ى, (M,) or ↓ ثُنْوَى, (so in the TA, [but probably through inadvertence,]) and ↓ ثَنِيَّةٌ, (M, K,) or ↓ ثُنْيَةٌ. (TA.) In a sale, it is unlawful when it is the exception of a thing unknown; and when one sells a slaughtered camel for a certain price and excepts the head and extremities: (T, TA:) or when an exception is made from things sold without measuring or weighting or numbering: and in a contract with another for labour upon land on the condition of sharing the produce, it is when one excepts a certain measure after the half or the third. (IAth, TA.) The saying of Mo-hammad, مَنِ اسْتَثْنَى فَلَهُ ثُنْيَاهُ means Whoso maketh an exception, his shall be what he excepteth: (M, TA: *) as, for instance, when one says, “I divorce her thrice, save once: ” or “ I emancipate them, except such a one. ” (TA.) b2: It also means particularly The head and legs of a slaughtered camel; (T, M, * K;) because the seller of the camel used, in the Time of Ignorance, to except them; (T;) and IF adds, but incorrectly, the back-bone: (Sgh, TA:) whence, applied to a she-camel, مُذَكَّرَةُ الثُّنْيَا, (T, M,) meaning Resembling the make of the male in [the largeness of] her head and legs; (Th, M;) or جُمَالِيَّةُ الثُّنْيَا, having thick legs, like those of the male camel in thickness. (T.) [Also, app., The exception, or omission, of a day, in irrigation: see 3 in art. ثلث, and ثِلْثٌ in the same art.] and ↓ ثَنِيَّةٌ signifies also A palm-tree that is excepted from a bargain. (M, K.) And The martyrs whom God has excepted from those who shall fall down dead or swooning: (M, K:) these, accord. to Kaab, are اللّٰهِ فِى الأَرْضِ ↓ ثَنِيّةُ [those whom God has excepted on the earth]; (T, M;) alluded to in the Kur [xxxix. 68], where it is said, “and the horn shall be blown, and those who are in the heavens and those on the earth shall fall down dead, or swooning, except those whom God shall please [to except]. ” (T.) ثُنْيَانٌ The second chief; the person who comes second as a chief; (A'Obeyd, T;) the person who is [next] below the سَيِّد, (S, M, K, [in some copies of the K, erroneously, سيل,]) in rank; (S;) as also ↓ ثِنًى (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, K) and ↓ ثُنًى (A'Obeyd, T, S, K) and ↓ ثِنْىٌ: (K:) pl. (of the first, S) ثِنْيَةٌ [which is also a sing., mentioned above]. (S, K.) [See an ex. in a verse cited voce بَدْءٌ.] b2: A man having no judgment nor intelligence, or understanding. (M, K.) b3: Applied to judgment, or an opinion, (M, K,) (tropical:) Wrong, or having a wrong tendency; (M;) bad, corrupt, unsound, or wrong. (K, TA.) A2: Also a pl. of ثَنِىٌّ [q. v.]. (S, M, &c.) ثَنَوِىٌّ rel. n. of اِثْنَانِ, and of اِثْنَا عَشَرَ, when either or these is used as the proper name of a man; as also ↓ اِثْنِىٌّ [with ا when connected with a preceding word]; like بِنَوِىٌّ and اِبْنِىٌّ as rel. ns. of اِبْنٌ. (S.) b2: And الثَّنَوِيَّةُ [The Dualists;] the sect who assert the doctrine of Dualism [الاِثْنَيْنِيَّة]. (TA.) ثَنَآءٌ, [and accord. to the CK, ثَنِيَّةٌ, but this is a mistranscription for تَثْنِيَة, inf. n. of ثَنَّى, and تَثْنِيَة is a mistake for تَثْبِيَة, inf. n. of ثَبَّى, (see 4,)] Praise, eulogy, or commendation, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) of a man, (T, M,) and of God: (T:) and dispraise, censure, or discommendation, (T, M, Msb, K,) of a man: (T, M:) or the former only: (M, K:) or more frequently the former: (Msb:) so termed because it is repeated: (Ham p. 696:) that it relates to good speech and evil is asserted by many. (TA.) ثُنَآءُ and ثُنَآءَ: see مَثْنَى.

ثِنَآءٌ The cord, or rope, with which a camel's fore shank and his arm are bound together; (S, K;) and the like; consisting of a folded, or doubled, cord, or rope: each of the folds, or duplicatures, thereof would be thus termed if the word were used in the sing. form: (S:) Ibn-EsSeed [in the CK, erroneously, Ibn-Es-Seedeh] allows it; and therefore it is given as on his authority in the K: (TA:) and Lth allows it; but in this instance he allows what the Arabs do not allow: (T:) you say, عَقَلْتُ البَعِيرَ بِثِنَايَيْنِ, meaning I bound together the fore shanks and the arms of the camel with a rope, (S,) or with two ropes, (M, [but this is probably a mistake of a copyist,]) or with the two ends of a rope; (Az, T, S, M;) without ء because the word has no sing.: (Kh, Sb, T, S:) Lth allows one's saying بِثِنَآءَيْنِ also; but the Basrees and Koofees [in general] agree that it is without ء: (T:) IB says that it has no sing. because it is a single rope, with one end of which one fore leg is bound, and with the other end the other leg; and IAth says the like: (TA:) this rope is also called ↓ ثِنَايَةٌ; but a single rope for binding one fore shank and arm is not thus called. (T.) See also ثِنَايَةٌ. b2: And see ثَانٍ.

A2: The فِنَآء [or court, or open or wide space, in front, or extending from the sides,] (M, K,) of a house: (M:) [in the CK, الغِناءُ is erroneously put for الفِناءُ:] accord. to IJ, from ثَنَى, aor. ـْ because there one is turned back, by its limits, from expatiating; but A'Obeyd holds the ث to be a substitute for ف. (M.) ثَنِىٌّ Shedding his tooth called the ثَنِيَّة [q. v.]: (S, M, Msb:) or that has shed the tooth so called: (T, Mgh:) applied to a camel &c., as follows: (T, S, M, &c.:) or, as some say, to any animal that has shed that tooth, except man: (M:) fem. with ة: (T, S, M, Msb, K:) a camel in the sixth year; (T, S, M, IAth, Mgh, Msb, K;) the least age at which he may be sacrificed: (T:) and a horse in the fourth year; (IAar, T, Mgh, K;) or in the third year: (S, Msb:) and a cloven-hoofed animal, (S, Mgh, Msb,) or a sheep or goat and an animal of the bovine kind, [respecting which last see عَضْبٌ,] (T, IAth, K,) in the third year: (T, S, IAth, Mgh, Msb, K:) or a sheep and a goat, (M,) the latter accord. to the persuasion of Ahmad [Ibn-Hambal], (TA,) in the second year: (M:) and a gazelle after the age at which he is termed جَذَعٌ: (M: [see شَصَرٌ:]) in all cases, after what is termed جَذَعٌ and before what is termed رَبَاعٍ: (Mgh:) pl. (masc., S, TA) ثُنْيَانٌ and ثِنَآءٌ (S, M, Mgh, Msb) and ثُنَآءٌ, and, accord. to Sb, ثُنٍ; (M;) and pl. fem. ثَنِيَّاتٌ. (S.) الثُّنَىُّ, or الثُّنِىُّ: see اِثْنَانِ.

ثَنِيَّةٌ I. q. عَقَبَةٌ: (AA, M, Mgh, K:) or the latter means a long mountain that lies across the road, and which the road traverses; and the former, any such mountain that is traversed: (T:) so called because it lies before the road, and crosses it; or because it turns away him who traverses it: (Mgh:) or the road of what is termed عَقَبَة: (S; and so in copies of the K:) or a high road of what is thus termed: (K accord. to the TA:) or a road in, or upon, a mountain, (M, K,) like that which is termed نَقْبٌ [q. v.]: (M:) or a road to a mountain: (M, K:) or a mountain (M, K) itself: (M:) or a part of a mountain that requires one, in traversing it, to ascend and descend; as though it turned the course of journeying: (Er-Rághib, TA:) pl. ثَنَايَا: (T, S:) which signifies also [such roads as are termed] مَدَارِج. (T.) Hence the phrase, فُلَانٌ طَلَّاعُ الثَّنَايَا Such a one rises to eminences, or to lofty things or circumstances, or to the means of attaining such things; like the phrase طَلَّاعُ أَنْجُدٍ

[q. v.]: (S:) or, like the latter phrase, is accustomed to embark in, or undertake, or to surmount, or master, lofty and difficult things: (Mgh:) or is hardy, strong, or sturdy; one who embarks in, or undertakes, great affairs. (TA. [See an ex. under the heading of اِبْنُ جَلَا, in art. جلو: and see also art. طلع.]) b2: Also, (T, S, M, &c.,) pl. ثَنَايَا (T, S, Mgh, Msb) and ثَنِيَّاتٌ, (Msb,) One of certain teeth, (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) the foremost in the mouth, (M,) [namely, the central incisors,] four in number, (T, M, Mgh, Msb,) to man, and to the camel, (T, M, &c.,) and to the wild beast, (M,) in the fore part of the mouth, (T, Mgh, K,) two above and two below: (T, M, Mgh, K:) so called as being likened to the ثَنِيَّة of a mountain, in form and hardness; (TA;) or because each of them is placed next to its fellow. (Mgh.) A2: Also fem. of ثَنِىٌّ [q. v.]. (T, S, M, &c.) A3: See also ثُنْيَا, in five places.

ثِنَايَةٌ A cord, or rope, of goats' hair (شَعَر), or of wool, (S, K,) or of other material; (K;) as also ↓ ثِنَآءٌ (K) and ↓ مِثْنَاةٌ and ↓ مَثْنَاةٌ; (M, K;) which last is explained by IAar as signifying [simply] a cord, or rope: (M:) [or] the first has the meaning assigned to it above, voce ثِنَآءٌ; syn. with ثِنَايَانِ: and signifies also a long rope; whence the saying of Zuheyr, describing the [she-camel termed] سَانِيَة, تَمْطُو الرِّشَآءَ وَتُجْرِى فِى ثِنَايَتِهَا مِنَ المَحَالَةِ قَبًّا رَائِدًا قَلِقَا (T,) meaning [She draws the well-rope, and causes to run,] with her ثناية upon her, (ISk, T,) [a wabbling, unsteady, sheave (?) of the large pulley;] the ثناية here being a rope of which the two ends are tied to the saddle (قَتَب) of the سانية; the [upper] end of the well-rope being tied to its ↓ مِثْنَاة [which here means the folded middle part]: (T:) but Aboo-Sa'eed says that it [here] means a piece of wood by which are connected the two extremities of the cheeks, or side-pieces, (طرفا الميلين, [the latter of which words I here render conjecturally, supposing it to be similar in meaning to القَعْوِ or القَعْوَيْنِ,]) above the محالة, and a similar piece below; the محالة and [qu. or] the sheave turning between the tow pieces thus called. (T, in a later portion of the art.) ثُنَائِىٌّ [a rel. n. from اِثْنَانِ, anomalously formed, but analogous with other rel. ns. from ns. of number, as رُبَاعِىٌّ ثُلَاثِىٌّ, &c., Of, or relating to, two things]. b2: كَلِمَةٌ ثُنَائِيَّةٌ A word comprising, or composed of, two letters; as يَدٌ, and دُمْ [or دَمٌ?]. (TA.) ثِنْتَانِ a fem of اِثْنَانِ, q. v.

ثَانٍ [act. part. n. of 1; Doubling, or folding; &c.]. Hence, هُوَ ثَانٍ رِجْلَهُ While he was bending his leg before rising, or standing up. (TA from a trad.) [And جَآءَ ثَانِىَ عِطْفِهِ: see art. عطف.] One says of a horseman who has bent the neck of his beast on the occasion of his vehement running, جَآءَ ثَانِىَ العِنَانِ [He came bending the rein by pulling it with both hands a little apart]: (T:) or جَآءَ ثَانِيًا مِنْ عِنَانِهِ [he came bending a part of his rein]. (S.) And of the horse himself, one says, جَآءَ سَابِقًا ثَانِيًا, i. e. He came outstripping, with bent neck, by reason of briskness; because when he is fatigued, he stretches out his neck; and when he is not fatigued nor jaded by running, but comes in his first run, he bends his neck: and hence the saying of the poet, وَمَنْ يَفْخَرْ بِمِثْلِ أَبِى وَجَدِّى

يَجِئْ قَبْلَ السَّوَابِقِ وَهُوَ ثَانِى

i. e. [And he who glories in the like of my father and my grandfather, let him come before the mares that outstrip,] he being like the horse that outstrips [all others], with bent neck; or it may mean, he bending the neck of his horse which has outstripped the others. (T.) [Hence also,] شَاةٌ ثَانِيَةٌ A sheep, or goat, bending the neck, not in consequence of disease. (M, K.) b2: [Also Second; the ordinal of two: fem. with ة.] You say, هٰذَا ثَانِى هٰذَا [This is the second of this]; i. e. this is what has made this a pair, or couple: (M:) and فُلَانٌ (T) or هٰذَا (S) ثَانِى اثْنَيْنِ, (T, S,) i. e. Such a one, or this, is [the second of two, or] one of the two; (T, S;) like as you say ثَالِتُ ثَلَاثَةٍ; and so on to عَشَرَة: but not with tenween: (S:) [i. e.,] you may not say ثانٍ اثْنَيْنِ: (T: [see ثَالِثٌ:]) but if the two [terms] disagree, you may use either mode; (S;) you may say, هٰذَا (S) or هُوَ (Mgh) ثَانِى وَاحِدٍ and ثَانٍ وَاحِدًا, (S, Mgh,) i. e. This has become a second to one, (S,) [or rather, becomes &c. (i. e. يَثْنِى rather than ثَنَى),] or he, or it, makes one, with himself, or itself, to be two. (Mgh.) ↓ ثِنَآء also signifies the same in a trad. respecting the office of commander, or governor, or prince; where it is said, أَوَّلُهَا مَلَامَةٌ وَثِنَاؤُهَا نَدَامَةٌ وَثِلَاثُهَا عَذابُ يَوْمِ القِيَامَةِ إِلَّا مَنْ عَدَلَ, i. e. [The first result thereof is blame, and] the second [is regret, and] the third [is the punishment of the day of resurrection, except in the case of him who acts equitably]: so says Sh. (T.) b3: And الثَّوَانِى [pl. of الثَّانِيَةُ] signifies [The second horns;] the horns that are [next] after the أَوَائِل. (M.) b4: [ثَانِىَ عَشَرَ and ثَانِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ, the former masc. and the latter fem., meaning Twelfth, are subject to the same rules as ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and its fem., explained in art. ثلث.]

أَثْنَآءٌ pl. of ثِنْىٌ and of اِثْنَانِ: and also syn. with this latter, q. v.

اِثْنِىٌّ: see ثَنَوِىٌّ.

اِثْنَانِ a noun of number; (S, Msb;) applied to the dual number; (Msb;) meaning [Two;] the double of وَاحِدٌ; (M, K;) with a conjunctive ا [when not immediately preceded by a quiescence, written اثْنَانِ]; (T, S, Msb;) but this is sometimes made disjunctive when connected with a preceding word by poetic license: (T, S:) of the masc. gender: (S:) fem. اِثْنَتَانِ, (T, S, Msb,) in which, also, the ا is conjunctive; (T, Msb;) and ↓ ثِنْتَانِ; (T S, M, Msb, K;) the latter sometimes used, (T,) [much less frequently than the former, though the only fem. form mentioned in the M and K,] and of the dial. of Temeem; (Msb;) like as one says, هِىَ ابْنَةُ فُلَانٍ and هِىَ بِنْتُهُ: (T:) the ت in the dual is a substitute for the final radical, ى, (M, TA,) as it is in أَسْنَتُوا, the only other instance of this substitution except in words of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ: (Sb, M, TA:) in اِثْنَانِ, the final radical, ى is suppressed: (Msb:) it has no sing.: (Lth, T:) if it were allowable to assign to it a sing., it would be اِثْنٌ [for the masc.] and اِثْنَةٌ [for the fem.], like اِبْنٌ and اِبْنَةٌ: (S:) accord. to some, (Msb,) it is originally ثِنْىٌ; (T, Msb, CK;) and hence the dual ثِنْتَانِ: (Msb:) or it is originally ثَنَىٌ, (M, Msb, and so in a copy of the K,) the conjunctive ا being then substituted for the ى whence the dual اثْنَانِ, like ابْنَانِ: (Msb:) this is shown by the form of its pl., which is أَثْنَآءٌ, (M, K,) like أَبْنَآءٌ [pl. of ابْنٌ, which is originally بَنَىٌ or بَنَوٌ,] and آخَآءٌ [pl. of أَخٌ, which is originally أَخَوٌ]. (M.) In the saying in the Kur [xvi. 53], لَا تَتَّخِذُوا إِٰلهَيْنِ اثْنَيْنِ [Take not to yourselves two gods], the last word is added as a corroborative. (M.) The phrase ثِنْتَا حَنْظَلٍ occurs, by poetic license, for اِثْنَتَانِ مِنْ حَنْظَلٍ, meaning حَنْظَلَتَانِ [Two colo-cynths]. (S.) You say also, القَدَحِ ↓ شَرِبْتُ أَثْنَآءَ, and شَرِبْتُ اثْنَىْ هٰذَا القَدَحِ, meaning [I drank] twice as much as the bowl, and as this bowl: and in like manner, شَرِبْتُ اثْنَىْ مُدِّ البَصْرَةِ and اثْنَيْنِ بِمُدِّ البَصْرَةِ [I drank twice the quantity of the مُدّ of El-Basrah]. (M.) And a poet says, ↓ فَمَا حُلِبَتْ إِلَّا الثَّلَاثَةَ وَالثُّنَى

وَلَا قُيِّلَتْ إِلَّا قَرِيبًا مَقَالُهَا meaning [And she was not milked save] three vessels and two, [nor was she given her middaydrink save when her midday-resting was near.] (IAar, M.) b2: Hence, (Msb,) يَوْمُ الاِثْنَيْنِ, (S, Msb,) or الاِثْنَانِ alone, (M, K,) One of the days of the week; [the second; namely, Monday;] because the first, with the Arabs, is الأَحَدُ; (M;) as also ↓ الثِّنَى, like إِلَى; (K;) so in the copies of the K; [or,] accord. to some, ↓ الثُّنِىُّ, [originally الثُّنُوىُ,] of the measure فُعُول, like ثُدِىٌّ [pl. of ثَدْىٌ], is used in this sense; (TA;) or ↓ اليَوْمُ الثُّنَىُّ, [so in the M, accord. to the TT,] mentioned by Sb, on the authority of certain of the Arabs: (M:) the pl. is أَثْنَآءٌ and أَثَانِينُ, (M, K,) the latter mentioned on the authority of Th: but it has no dual: and those who say أَثْنَآءٌ form this pl. from الاِثْنُ, although this has not been in use: (M:) or it has neither dual nor pl., (S, Msb,) being itself a dual; (S;) but if you would form a pl. from it, you would regard it as itself a sing., and make its pl. أَثَانِينُ: (S, Msb:) IB says that أَثَانِينُ has not been heard [from the Arabs], and is only mentioned by Fr, on the ground of analogy; that it is far-fetched in respect of analogy; and that the pl. heard is أَثْنَآءٌ: Seer and others mention, as heard from the Arabs, إِنَّهُ لَيَصُومُ الأَثْنَآءَ [Verily he fasts on the Mondays]. (TA.) الثنين in يوم الثنين has no dim. (Sb, S in art. امس.) IJ says that the article ال in الثنين is not redundant, though the word is not an epithet: Abu-l-'Abbás says that the prefixing of the article in this case is allowable because the virtual meaning is اليَوْمُ الثَّانِى [the second day]. (M.) The saying اليَوْمُ الاِثْنَانِ means The name of to-day [is الاثنان]; and is like the saying اليَوْمُ يَوْمَانِ [to-day is two days] and اليَوْمُ خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ [to-day is fifteen of the month]. (Sb, M.) Sometimes, يَوْمُ اثْنَيْنِ, without the article ال, occurs in poetry. (M, K.) When a pronoun refers to الاثنان [as meaning Monday], this word may be treated in two ways, [as a sing. and as a dual,] but the more chaste way is to treat it as a sing., as meaning the day: (Msb:) [thus,] Aboo-Ziyád used to say, مَضَى الاِثْنَانِ بِمَا فِيهِ [Monday passed with what occurred in it]; making it sing. and masc.; and thus he did in the case of every day of the week, except that he made الجُمْعَة fem.: Abu-I-Jarráh used to say, مَضَى الاِثْنَانِ بِمَا فِيهِمَا, treating the word as a numeral; and thus he treated the third and fourth and fifth days, saying in each of these cases بِمَا فِيهِنَّ. (M.) b3: [اِثْنَا عَشَرَ, fem. اِثْنَتَا عَشْرَةَ; respectively, in a case of nasb and khafd, اِثْنَىْ عَشَرَ and اِثْنَتَىْ عَشْرَةَ; and with ا when not immediately preceded by a quiescence; mean Twelve: see عَشَرَةٌ.]

اِثْنَوِىٌّ, [with ا when not immediately preceded by a quiescence, in the CK erroneously written اَثْنَوِىّ,] One who fasts alone on the second day of the week. (IAar, Th, M, K.) الاِثْنَيْنِيَّةُ [The doctrine of dualism: see ثَنَوِىٌّ]. (TA.) مَثْنَى (S, Mgh) and ↓ ثُنَآءُ (T, S) [Two and two; two and two together; or two at a time and two at a time]: they are imperfectly decl., in like manner as [مَثْلَثُ and] ثُلَاثُ, as explained in art. ثلث; (S, TA;) [because] changed from the original form of اِثْنَانِ اثْنَانِ; (T, Mgh, TA;) or because of their having the quality of epithets and deviating from the original form of اِثْنَانِ; (Sb, S in art. ثلث, q. v.;) or 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 اِثْنَانِ اثْنَانِ. (S ibid.) You say, جَاؤُوا مَثْنَى and ↓ ثُنَآءَ (M, K) or مَثْنَى مَثْنَى, (S,) but this is a repetition of the word only, not of the meaning, (Mgh,) and in like manner one says of women, (M, K, *) i. e. They came two [and] two. (S, M, K.) And it is said in a trad., صَلَاةُ اللَّيْلِ مَثْنَى مَثْنَى, i. e. The prayer of night is two rek'ahs [and] two rek'ahs (رَكْعَتَانِ رَكْعَتَانِ). (TA.) [See also other exs. voce ثُلَاثُ.] b2: مَثْنَى الأَيَادِى The repeating a benefit, or benefaction; or reiterating it; conferring it twice, or thrice; (As, T, K;) or twice, or more than twice: (K:) or the shares remaining of the slaughtered camel (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, K) in the game called المَيْسِر, (A'Obeyd, T, S, K,) which shares a bountiful man used to purchase, and give for food to the أَبْرَام, (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, K,) i. e., those who took no part in the game, not contributing: (M:) or the taking a portion time after time. (AA, T, S, M.) b3: مَثَانٍ [is pl. of مَثْنًى as signifying A place of doubling, or folding &c.: and hence means b4: ] The knees and elbows of a horse or similar beast. (T, K.) b5: And The bends of a valley. (T, K. See ثِنْىٌ.) b6: And, as pl. of مَثْنًى, The chords of the lute that are after the first: (M, K:) or مثنى signifies a chord [of a lute] composed of two twists: or, as some say, the second chord.

النِّيلُ:
بكسر أوله، بلفظ النيل الذي تصبغ به الثياب، في مواضع: أحدها بليدة في سواد الكوفة قرب حلّة بني مزيد يخترقها خليج كبير يتخلج من الفرات الكبير حفره الحجاج بن يوسف وسماه بنيل مصر، وقيل:
إنّ النيل هذا يستمد من صراة جاماسب، ينسب إليه خالد بن دينار النيلي أبو الوليد الشيباني، كان يسكن النيل، حدث عن الحسن العكلي وسالم بن عبد الله ومعاوية بن قرّة، روى عنه الثوري وغيره، وقال محمد بن خليفة السّنبسي شاعر بني مزيد يمدح دبيسا بقصيدة مطلعها:
قالوا هجرت بلاد النيل وانقطعت ... حبال وصلك عنها بعد إعلاق
فقلت: إني وقد أقوت منازلها ... بعد ابن مزيد من وفد وطرّاق
فمن يكن تائقا يهوى زيارتها ... على البعاد فإني غير مشتاق
وكيف أشتاق أرضا لا صديق بها ... إلا رسوم عظام تحت أطباق؟
وإياه عنى أيضا مرجا بن نباه بقوله:
قصدتكم أرجو نوال أكفّكم، ... فعدت وكفّي من نوالكم صفر
فلما أتيت النيل أيقنت بالغنى ... ونيل المنى منكم فلاحقني الفقر
والنيل أيضا: نهر من أنهار الرّقة حفره الرشيد على ضفّة نيل الرّقة، والبليخ: نهر دير زكّى، ولذلك قال الصّنوبري:
كأنّ عناق نهري دير زكّى، ... إذا اعتنقا، عناق متيّمين
وقت ذاك البليخ يد الليالي ... وذاك النيل من متجاورين
وأما نيل مصر فقال حمزة: هو تعريب نيلوس من الرومية، قال القضاعي: ومن عجائب مصر النيل جعله الله لها سقيا يزرع عليه ويستغنى به عن مياه المطر في أيام القيظ إذا نضبت المياه من سائر الأنهار فيبعث الله في أيام المدّ الريح الشمال فيغلب عليه البحر الملح فيصير كالسّكر له حتى يربو ويعم الرّبى والعوالي ويجري في الخلج والمساقي فإذا بلغ الحدّ الذي هو تمام الريّ وحضر زمان الحرث والزراعة بعث الله الريح الجنوب فكبسته وأخرجته إلى البحر الملح وانتفع الناس بالزراعة مما يروى من الأرض، وأجمع أهل العلم أنه ليس في الدنيا نهر أطول من النيل لأن مسيرته شهر في الإسلام وشهران في بلاد النوبة وأربعة أشهر في الخراب حيث لا عمارة فيها إلى أن يخرج في بلاد القمر خلف خطّ الاستواء، وليس في الدنيا نهر يصبّ من الجنوب إلى الشمال إلا هو، ويمتد في أشدّ ما يكون من الحرّ حين تنقص أنهار الدنيا، ويزيد بترتيب وينقص بترتيب بخلاف سائر الأنهار، فإذا زادت الأنهار في سائر الدنيا نقص وإذا نقصت زاد نهاية وزيادة، وزيادته في أيام نقص غيره، وليس في الدنيا نهر يزرع عليه ما يزرع على النيل ولا يجيء من خراج نهر ما يجيء من خراج ما يسقيه النيل، وقد روي عن عمرو بن العاص أنه قال: إن نيل مصر سيد الأنهار سخر الله له كلّ نهر بين المشرق والمغرب أن يمدّ له وذلّله له فإذا أراد الله تعالى أن يجري نيل مصر أمر الله تعالى كلّ نهر أن يمدّه بمائه وفجّر الله تعالى له الأرض عيونا وانتهى جريه إلى ما أراد
الله تعالى، فإذا بلغ النيل نهايته أمر الله تعالى كلّ ماء أن يرجع إلى عنصره ولذلك جميع مياه الأرض تقلّ أيام زيادته، وذكر عبد الرحمن بن عبد الله بن عبد الحكم قال: لما فتح المسلمون مصر جاء أهلها إلى عمرو بن العاص حين دخل بؤونه من شهور القبط فقالوا: أيها الأمير إن لبلدنا هذا سنّة لا يجري النيل إلا بها وذلك أنه إذا كان لاثنتي عشرة ليلة تخلو من هذا الشهر عمدنا إلى جارية بكر بين أبويها فأرضينا أبويها وجعلنا عليها من الحلي والثياب أفضل ما يكون ثم ألقيناها في هذا النيل، فقال لهم عمرو: إن هذا لا يكون في الإسلام وإن الإسلام يهدم ما قبله، فأقاموا بؤونه وأبيب ومسرى لا يجري النيل قليلا ولا كثيرا حتى هموا بالجلاء، فلما رأى عمرو ذلك كتب إلى عمر بن الخطاب بذلك فكتب إليه عمر:
قد أصبت، إن الإسلام يهدم ما قبله، وقد بعثت إليك ببطاقة فألقها في داخل النيل إذا أتاك كتابي هذا، وإذا في كتابه: بسم الله الرّحمن الرّحيم، من عبد الله عمر بن الخطاب أمير المؤمنين إلى نيل مصر، أما بعد فإن كنت تجري من قبلك فلا تجر، وإن كان الواحد القّهار يجريك فنسأل الله الواحد القهار أن يجريك، قال: فألقى عمرو بن العاص البطاقة في النيل وذلك قبل عيد الصليب بيوم وكان أهل مصر قد تأهبوا للخروج منها والجلاء لأنهم لا تقوم مصلحتهم إلا بالنيل، فأصبحوا يوم الصليب وقد جرى النيل بقدرة الله تعالى وزاد ستة عشر ذراعا في ليلة واحدة وانقطعت تلك السنّة السيئة عن أهل مصر، وكان للنيل سبعة خلجان: خليج الإسكندرية، وخليج دمياط، وخليج منف، وخليج المنهي، وخليج الفيوم، وخليج عرشي، وخليج سردوس، وهي متصلة الجريان لا ينقطع منها شيء، والزروع بين هذه الخلجان متّصلة من أول مصر إلى آخرها، وزروع مصر كلها تروى من ستة عشر ذراعا بما قدّروا ودبروا من قناطرها وجسورها وخلجها، فإذا استوى الماء كما ذكرناه في المقياس من هذا الكتاب أطلق حتى يملأ أرض مصر فتبقى تلك الأراضي كالبحر الذي لم يفارقه الماء قط والقرى بينه يمشى إليها على سكور مهيأة والسفن تخترق ذلك، فإذا استوفت المياه ورويت الأرضون أخذ ينقص في أول الخريف وقد برد الهواء وانكسر الحرّ فكلما نقص الماء عن أرض زرعت أصناف الزروع واكتفت بتلك الشربة لأنه كلما تأخّر الوقت برد الجوّ فلا تنشف الأرض إلى أن يستكمل الزرع فإذا استكمل عاد الوقت يأخذ في الحرّ والصيف حتى ينضج الزروع وينشفها ويكمّلها، فلا يأتي الصيف إلا وقد استقام أمرها فأخذوا في حصادها، وفي ذلك عبرة وآية ودليل على قدرة العزيز الحكيم الذي خلق الأشياء في أحسن تقويم، وقد قال عزّ من قائل:
ما ترى في خلق الرحمن من تفاوت، وفي النيل عجائب كثيرة وله خصائص لا توجد في غيره من الأنهار، وأما أصل مجراه فيذكر أنه يأتي من بلاد الزنج فيمر بأرض الحبشة مسامتا لبحر اليمن من جهة أرض الحبشة حتى ينتهي إلى بلاد النوبة من جانبها الغربي والبجه من جانبها الشرقي فلا يزال جاريا بين جبلين بينهما قرى وبلدان والراكب فيه يرى الجبلين عن يمينه وشماله وهو بينهما بإزاء الصعيد حتى يصب في البحر، وأما سبب زيادته في الصيف فإن المطر يكثر بأرض الزنجبار وتلك البلاد في هذه الأوقات بحيث ينزل الغيث عندهم كأفواه القرب وتنصبّ المدود إلى هذا النهر من سائر الجهات فإلى أن يصل إلى مصر ويقطع تلك المفاوز يكون القيظ ووجه
الحاجة إليه كما دبره الخالق عز وجل، وقد ذكر الليث بن سعد وغيره قصة رجل من ولد العيص بن إسحاق النبي، عليه السّلام، وتطلّبه مجراه أذكرها بعد إن شاء الله تعالى، قال أميّة: نيل مصر ينبوعه من وراء خط الاستواء من جبل هناك يقال له جبل القمر فإنه يبتدئ في التزيّد في شهر أبيب وهو في الرومية يوليه، والمصريون يقولون: إذا دخل أبيب شرع الماء في الدبيب، وعند ابتدائه في التزيّد تتغير جميع كيفياته ويفسد، والسبب في ذلك مروره بنقائع مياه أجنة يخالطها فيحيلها ويستخرجها معه ويستصحبها إلى غير ذلك مما يحيله، فلا يزال على هذه الحال كما وصفه الأمير تميم بن الــمعزّ بن إسماعيل فقال:
أما ترى الرعد بكى واشتك ... والبرق قد أومض واستضحكا؟
فاشرب على غيم كصبغ الدُّجى ... أضحك وجه الأرض لما بكى
وانظر لماء النيل في مدّه ... كأنه صندل أو مسّكا
أو كما قال أمية بن أبي الصلت المغربي:
ولله مجرى النيل منها إذا الصّبا ... أرتنا به في مرّها عسكرا مجرا
بشطّ يهزّ السّمهريّة ذبّلا، ... وموج يهزّ البيض هنديّة بترا
ولتميم بن الــمعز أيضا:
يوم لنا بالنيل مختصر، ... ولكل وقت مسرة قصر
والسّفن تصعد كالخيول بنا ... فيه وجيش الماء منحدر
فكأنما أمواجه عكن، ... وكأنما داراته سرر
وقال الحافظ أبو الحسين محمد بن الوزير في تدرج زيادة النيل إصبعا إصبعا وعظم منفعة ذلك التدرج:
أرى أبدا كثيرا من قليل، ... وبدرا في الحقيقة من هلال
فلا تعجب فكلّ خليج ماء ... بمصر مسبّب لخليج مال
زيادة إصبع في كل يوم ... زيادة أذرع في حسن حال
فإذا بلغ الماء خمسة عشر ذراعا وزاد من السادس عشر إصبعا واحدا كسر الخليج ولكسره يوم معهود فيجتمع الخاصّ والعامّ بحضرة القاضي وإذا كسر فتحت التّرع وهي فوهات الخلجان ففاض الماء وساح وعمّ الغيطان والبطاح وانضمّ أهل القرى إلى أعلى مساكنهم من الضياع والمنازل بحيث لا ينتهي إليهم الماء فتعود عند ذلك أرض مصر بأسرها بحرا عامّا غامر الماء بين جبليها المكتنفين لها وتثبت على هذه الحال حسبما تبلغ الحدّ المحدود في مشيئة الله، وأكثر ذلك يحول حول ثمانية عشر ذراعا ثم يأخذ عائدا في صبّه إلى مجرى النيل ومشربه فينقص عما كان مشرفا عاليا من الأراضي ويستقر في المنخفض منها فيترك كل قرارة كالدرهم ويعمّ الرّبى بالزهر المؤنق والروض المشرق، وفي هذا الوقت تكون أرض مصر أحسن شيء منظرا وأبهاها مخبرا، وقد جوّد أبو الحسن عليّ بن أبي بشر الكاتب فقال:
شربنا مع غروب الشمس شَمْساً ... مشعشعة إلى وقت الطلوع
وضوء الشمس فوق النيل باد ... كأطراف الأسنّة في الدروع
ومن عجائب النيل السمكة الرعّادة وهي سمكة لطيفة مسيّرة من مسّها بيده أو بعود يتصل بيده إليها أو بشبكة هي فيها اعترته رعدة وانتفاض ما دامت في يده أو في شبكته، وهذا أمر مستفيض رأيت جماعة من أهل التحصيل يذكرونه، ويقال إن بمصر بقلة من مسّها ومسّ الرعّادة لم ترتعد يده، والله أعلم، ومن عجائبه التمساح ولا يوجد في بلد من البلدان إلا في النيل، ويقال إنه أيضا بنهر السند إلا أنه ليس في عظم المصري فإذا عضّ اشتبكت أسنانه واختلفت فلم يتخلص الذي وقع فيها حتى يقطعه، وحنك التمساح الأعلى يتحرّك والأسفل لا يتحرك، وليس ذلك في غيره من الدواب، ولا يعمل الحديد في جلده، وليس له فقار بل عظم ظهره من رأسه إلى ذنبه عظم واحد ولا يقدر أن يلتوي أو ينقبض لأنه ليس في ظهره خرز، وهو إذا انقلب لم يستطع أن يتحرك، وإذا أراد الذكر أن يسفد أنثاه أخرجها من النيل وألقاها على ظهرها كما يأتي الرجل المرأة فإذا قضى منها وطره قلبها فإن تركها على ظهرها صيدت لأنها لا تقدر أن تنقلب، وذنب التمساح حادّ طويل وهو يضرب به فربما قتل من تناله ضربته، وربما جرّ بذنبه الثور من الشريعة حتى يلجج به في البحر فيأكله، ويبيض مثل بيض الإوزّ فإذا فقص عن فراخه كان الواحد كالحرذون في جسمه وخلقته ثم يعظم حتى يصير عشرة أذرع وأكثر وهو يبيض وكلما عاش يزيد، وتبيض الأنثى ستين بيضة، وله في فيه ستون سنّا، ويقال إنه إذا أخذ أول سن من جانب حنكه الأيسر ثم علّق على من به حمّى نافض تركته من ساعته، وربما دخل لحم ما يأكله بين أسنانه فيتأذّى به فيخرج من الماء إلى البرّ ويفتح فاه فيجيئه طائر مثل الطّيطوى فيسقط على حنكه فيلتقط بمنقاره ذلك اللحم بأسره فيكون ذلك اللحم طعاما لذلك الطائر وراحة بأكله إياه للتمساح، ولا يزال هذا الطائر حارسا له ما دام ينقي أسنانه، فإذا رأى إنسانا أو صيادا يريده رفرف عليه وزعق ليؤذنه بذلك ويحذره حتى يلقي نفسه في الماء إلى أن يستوفي جميع ما في أسنانه، فإذا أحسّ التمساح بأنه لم يبق في أسنانه شيء يؤذيه أطبق فمه على ذلك الطائر ليأكله فلذلك خلق الله في رأس ذلك الطائر عظما أحدّ من الإبرة فيقيمه في وسط رأسه فيضرب حنك التمساح، ويحكى عنه ما هو أعجب من ذلك، وهو أن ابن عرس من أشد أعدائه، فيقال إن ابن عرس إذا رأى التمساح نائما على شاطئ النيل ألقى نفسه في الماء حتى يبتل ثم يتمرغ في التراب ثم يقيم شعره ويثب حتى يدخل في جوف التمساح فيأكل ما في جوفه وليس للتمساح يد تدفع عنه ذلك، فإذا أراد الخروج بقر بطنه وخرج، وعجائب الدنيا كثيرة وإنما نذكر منها ما نجرّبه عادة ولهذا أمثال ليس كتابنا بصدد شرحها، وقال الشاعر:
أضمرت للنيل هجرانا ومقلية ... مذ قيل لي إنما التمساح في النيل
فمن رأى النيل رأي العين من كشب ... فما رأى النيل إلا في البواقيل
والبواقيل: كيزان يشرب منها أهل مصر، وقال عمرو بن معدي كرب:
فالنيل أصبح زاخرا بمدوده، ... وجرت له ريح الصّبا فجرى لها
عوّدت كندة عادة فاصبر لها، ... اغفر لجانبها وردّ سجالها
وحدّث الليث بن سعد قال: زعموا، والله أعلم،
أن رجلا من ولد العيص يقال له حائذ بن شالوم بن العيص بن إسحاق بن إبراهيم، عليهما السلام، خرج هاربا من ملك من ملوكهم إلى أرض مصر فأقام بها سنين، فلما رأى عجائب نيلها وما يأتي به جعل الله نذرا أن لا يفارق ساحله حتى يرى منتهاه أو ينظر من أين مخرجه أو يموت قبل ذلك، فسار عليه ثلاثين سنة في العمران ومثلها في غير العمران، وبعضهم يقول خمس عشرة كذا وخمس عشرة كذا، حتى انتهى إلى بحر أخضر فنظر إلى النيل يشقه مقبلا فوقف ينظر إلى ذلك فإذا هو برجل قائم يصلّي تحت شجرة تفّاح، فلما رآه استأنس به فسلم عليه فسأله صاحب الشجرة عن اسمه وخبره وما يطلب، فقال له: أنا حائذ بن شالوم بن العيص بن إسحاق بن إبراهيم، فمن أنت؟ قال: أنا عمران بن العيص بن إسحاق بن إبراهيم، فما الذي جاء بك إلى ههنا يا حائذ؟ قال:
أردت علم أمر النيل، فما الذي جاء بك أنت؟ قال:
جاء بي الذي جاء بك، فلما انتهيت إلى هذا الموضع أوحى الله تعالى إليّ أن قف بمكانك حتى يأتيك أمري، قال: فأخبرني يا عمران أي شيء انتهى إليك من أمر هذا النيل وهل بلغك أن أحدا من بني آدم يبلغه؟ قال: نعم بلغني أن رجلا من بني العيص يبلغه ولا أظنه غيرك يا حائذ، فقال له: يا عمران كيف الطريق إليه؟ قال له عمران: لست أخبرك بشيء حتى تجعل بيننا ما أسألك، قال: وما ذاك؟ قال: إذا رجعت وأنا حيّ أقمت عندي حتى يأتي ما أوحى الله لي أن يتوفاني فتدفني وتمضي، قال: لك ذلك عليّ، قال: سر كما أنت سائر فإنه ستأتي دابة ترى أولها ولا ترى آخرها فلا يهولنّك أمرها فإنها دابة معادية للشمس إذا طلعت أهوت إليها لتلتقمها فاركبها فإنها تذهب بك إلى ذلك الجانب من البحر فسر عليه فإنك ستبلغ أرضا من حديد جبالها وشجرها وجميع ما فيها حديد، فإذا جزتها وقعت في أرض من فضة جبالها وشجرها وجميع ما فيها فضة، فإذا تجاوزتها وقعت في أرض من ذهب جميع ما فيها ذهب ففيها ينتهي إليك علم النيل، قال: فودعه ومضى وجرى الأمر على ما ذكر له حتى انتهى إلى أرض الذهب فسار فيها حتى انتهى إلى سور من ذهب وعليه قبّة لها أربعة أبواب وإذا ماء كالفضة ينحدر من فوق ذلك السور حتى يستقرّ في القبة ثم يتفرق في الأبواب وينصبّ إلى الأرض، فأما ثلثاه فيغيض وأما واحد فيجري على وجه الأرض وهو النيل، فشرب منه واستراح ثم حاول أن يصعد السور فأتاه ملك وقال: يا حائذ قف مكانك فقد انتهى إليك علم ما أردته من علم النيل وهذا الماء الذي تراه ينزل من الجنة وهذه القبة بابها، فقال:
أريد أن أنظر إلى ما في الجنة، فقال: إنك لن تستطيع دخولها اليوم يا حائذ، قال: فأي شيء هذا الذي أرى؟ قال: هذا الفلك الذي تدور فيه الشمس والقمر وهو شبه الرحا، قال: أريد أن أركبه فأدور فيه، فقال له الملك: إنك لن تستطيع اليوم ذلك، ثم قال: إنه سيأتيك رزق من الجنة فلا تؤثر عليه شيئا من الدنيا فإنه لا ينبغي لشيء من الجنة أن يؤثر عليه شيء من الدنيا، فبينما هو واقف إذ أنزل عليه عنقود من عنب فيه ثلاثة أصناف: صنف كالزبرجد الأخضر وصنف كالياقوت الأحمر وصنف كاللؤلؤ الأبيض، ثم قال: يا حائذ هذا من حصرم الجنة ليس من يانع عنبها فارجع فقد انتهى إليك علم النيل، فرجع حتى انتهى إلى الدابة فركبها فلما أهوت الشمس إلى الغروب أهوت إليها لتلتقمها فقذفت به إلى جانب البحر الآخر فأقبل حتى انتهى إلى عمران فوجده قد مات في يومه ذلك فدفنه وأقام
على قبره، فلما كان في اليوم الثالث أقبل شيخ كبير كأنه بعض العبّاد فبكى على عمران طويلا وصلى على قبره وترحم عليه ثم قال: يا حائذ ما الذي انتهى إليك من علم النيل؟ فأخبره، فقال: هكذا نجده في الكتاب، ثم التفت إلى شجرة تفاح هناك فأقبل يحدّثه ويطري تفاحها في عينيه، فقال له: يا حائذ ألا تأكل؟ قال: معي رزقي من الجنة ونهيت أن أوثر عليه شيئا من الدنيا، فقال الشيخ: هل رأيت في الدنيا شيئا مثل هذا التفاح؟ إنما هذه شجرة أنزلها الله لعمران من الجنة ليأكل منها وما تركها إلا لك ولو أكلت منها وانصرفت لرفعت، فلم يزل يحسّنها في عينه ويصفها له حتى أخذ منها تفاحة فعضها ليأكل منها فلما عضها عضّ يده ونودي: هل تعرف الشيخ؟
قال: لا! قيل: هذا الذي أخرج أباك آدم من الجنة، أما إنك لو سلمت بهذا الذي معك لأكل منه أهل الدنيا فلم ينفد، فلما وقف حائذ على ذلك وعلم أنه إبليس أقبل حتى دخل مصر فأخبرهم بخبر النيل ومات بعد ذلك بمصر، قال عبيد الله الفقير إليه مؤلف الكتاب: هذا خبر شبيه بالخرافة وهو مستفيض ووجوده في كتب الناس كثير، والله أعلم بصحته، وإنما كتبت ما وجدت.

(M, L, TA.) 4 أَصَبُّوا They (a company of men, TA) took their way down a declivity, or declivous place. (M, K, TA.) 5 تَصَبَّّ see 7, in four places. b2: And see also what here follows.6 تَصَابَبْتُ المَآءَ I drank what remained of the water (S, A, K) in a vessel: (S, A:) [or] you say, تصابّ الصُّبَابَةَ and ↓ اصطبّها and ↓ تصبّبها [he drank what remained of the water, or of the milk, in a vessel]; (M, L;) all signifying the same. (L, TA.) b2: And [hence,] تَصَابَّ فُلَانٌ المَعِيشَةَ بَعْدَ فُلانٍ [lit. Such a one drank the remains of life after such a one], meaning (tropical:) such a one outlived such a one: (A, * TA:) and تَصَابَبْتُهُمْ

أَجْمَعِينَ إِلَّا وَاحِدًا (tropical:) [I outlived them all except one]. (TA.) Esh-Shemmákh says, (M,) or ElAkhtal, (TA,) لَقَوْمٌ تَصَابَبْتُ المَعِيشَةَ بَعْدَهُمْ

أَعَزُّ عَلَىَّ مِنْ عِفَآءٍ تَغَيَّرَا (tropical:) [Verily the loss of a people whom I have outlived is more severe to me than abundant and long hair that has become altered in colour]: he means, the loss of those with whom I was in a state of ease and plenty is more severe to me than my hair's becoming white: (M:) Az says, he likens what remained of his life to the remains of beverage that he was sipping up. (TA.) 7 انصبّ It (water, S, M, and the like, M) poured out or forth, or became poured out or forth; (S, M, A, K;) as also ↓ صَبَّ, (M, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ (Msb, TA,) inf. n. صَبِيبٌ; (Msb;) and ↓ تصبّب, (M, K,) which is of a form rarely occurring as that of a quasi-pass. of an unaugmented triliteral verb, being generally that of the quasi-pass. of a verb of the form فَعَّلَ; (MF, TA;) [but this app. denotes its doing so repeatedly; and abundantly, like تَدَفَّقَ, q. v.;] and ↓ اصطبّ. (K.) One says, المَآءُ يَنْصَبُّ مِنَ الجَبَلِ, (TA,) and من الجبل ↓ يَتَصَبَّبُ, (S, TA,) The water descends, little by little, from the mountain. (S, TA.)

And عَرَقًا ↓ تَصَبَّبْتُ [which may be rendered I flowed with sweat] is a phrase of the Arabs, meaning تصبّب عَرَقِى [my sweat flowed]: thus the act is literally ascribed to the speaker, and what is essentially the agent becomes a specificative: it is not allowable to say عَرَقًا تَصَبَّبْتُ; for, as it is not allowable to put the agent before the verb, so it is not allowable to put the specificative, when it is virtually the agent, before the verb. (IJ, M.) b2: One says also, انصبّ الكُوزُ [The mug had its contents poured out or forth]. (TA in art. دفق.) b3: See also 1, in three places. b4: انصب النَّاسُ عَلَى المَآءِ [generally implies descent, but] means (assumed tropical:) The people collected together, or assembled, at the water.

(assumed tropical:) Thou inclinest to diversion, or sport..]8 اصطبّ المَآءَ is expl. by Sb as signifying He took for himself the water; agreeably with general analogy: (M:) [but it is more properly rendered he poured out for himself the water:] one says, اِصْطَبَبْتُ لِنَفْسِى مَآءً مِنَ القِرْبَةِ لِأَشْرَبَهُ [I poured out for myself water from the skin that I might drink it]: and اِصْطَبَبْتُ لِنَفْسِى قَدَحًا [I poured out for myself a cup].

Q. 2 تَصَبْصَبَ (assumed tropical:) It was, or became, annihilated, caused to pass away, or done away with; (S, M, K;) it passed, or went, away; said of a thing. (S, M.

(M, K, * TA.) صَبٌّ is an inf. n. [and is] used [as an epithet] in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ, or of the measure مَفْعُولٌ: (TA:) [thus it is used as an epithet] applied to water, [meaning Pouring out or forth, or poured out or forth,] like as are سَكْبٌ and غَوْرٌ: (S, TA: [see also صَابٌّ and صَبِيبٌ:]) and hence, in 'Alee's description of Aboo-Bekr, when he died, كُنْتَ عَلَى الكَافِرِينَ عَذَابًا صَبًّا (assumed tropical:) [Thou wast, against, or upon, the unbelievers, a punishment pouring forth, or poured forth]. (TA.) b2: And [hence, app.,] one says, ضَرَبَهُ ضَرْبًا صَبًّا, meaning (assumed tropical:) He smote him with the edge of the sword [as though with a smiting pouring down, or poured down]; as also حَدْرً. (IAar, L, TA.) b3: One says also, ضَرَبَهُ مِائِةً فَصَبًّا, (TA,) or أَخَذَ مِائَةً فَصَبًّا, (A,) meaning, (tropical:) [He smote him with a hundred blows, or he took a hundred,] and less than that, i. e. فَدُونَ ذٰلِكَ, (TA,) contr. of فَصَاعِدًا; (A;) or and more [than that], or above [that], i. e. like فَصَاعِدًا, (A, TA,) i. e. مَا فَوْقَ ذٰلِكَ. (TA.) b4: And عَلَيْهِ البَلَآءُ ↓ صُبَّ, مِنْ صَبٍّ, meaning (tropical:) [Trial, or affliction, was poured upon him] from above. (A, TA.) A2: Also, applied to a man, Affected with excessive love, or with attachment, or admiring love, (IAar, S, A, * TA,) and desire: (S:) or with desire: (M, A, * K:) or with tenderness of desire, (S, * M, A, * K,) and ardour thereof: (S: * [see صَبَّ:]) or with tenderness of love. (M, K.) One says, هُوَ صَبٌّ بِهَا (and إِلَيْهَا (see صَبَّ)] He is affected with excessive love of her; &c.: (A:) fem. صَبَّةٌ: (M, K:) dual masc. صَبَّانِ, pl. masc. صَبُّونَ; dual. fem. صَبَّتَانِ, pl. fem. صَبَّاتٌ: thus accord. to those who hold رَجُلٌ صَبٌّ to be similar to رَجُلٌ فَهِمٌ and حَذِرٌ, originally صَبِبٌ: (TA:) [hence it appears that some hold صَبٌّ to be originally an inf. n., and therefore use it as an epithet in its original form, without regard to gender or number: but] accord. to Sb, صَبٌّ is [originally] of the measure فَعِلٌ, because you say صَبِبْتُ صَبَابَةً, like as you say قَنِعْتُ قَنَاعَةً. (M.) See also 1, last sentence.

صُبٌّ: see صُبَّةٌ. b2: Accord. to AO, it may also be pl. of ↓ صَبُوبٌ or of ↓ صَابٌّ: but Az says that, accord. to others, it is not pl. of either of these two words; their pl. being صُبُبٌ: (L, TA:) it is said in a trad., (S, L, TA,) respecting conflicts and factions, or seditions, (L, TA,) لَتَعُودُنَّ فِيهَا أَسَاوِدَ صُبًّا يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ: (S, L, TA:) here by أَسَاوِد are meant “ [great and noxious] serpents: ” (L, TA:) and صُبًّا, accord. to Ez-Zuhree, is from الصَّبُّ [“ the act of pouring out or forth ”]; for the serpent, he says, when it desires to bite, raises itself, and then darts down (lit. pours down) upon him that is bitten: (S, L, TA:) [as though the meaning were, Ye will be, therein, like great and noxious serpents, one portion of you smiting the necks of another portion:] Ez-Zuhree says that صُبًّا is pl. of ↓ صَبُوبٌ, and originally صُبُبًا; like as رَجُلٌ صَبٌّ is originally صَبِبٌ; and so says IAmb: but IAar is related to have said that أَسَاوِد means companies, pl. of سَوَادٌ; and صُبًّا, pouring, one upon another, with slaughter: and some say that it is صُبَّى, in measure like حُبْلَى; and it is said to be from صَبَا, [for صَبَا إِلَى الدُّنْيَا,] aor. ـْ meaning “ he inclined to the things of the present world; ” and thus to be like غُزَّى, pl. of غَازٍ: [see صَابٍ, in art. صبو:] IAar used also to say that it is originally صُبَّأً, with ء, [pl. of صَابِئٌ,] from صَبَأً عَلَيْهِ “ he came, or came forth, upon him unexpectedly. ” (L, TA.) صُبَّةٌ A quantity of wheat or food, &c., that is poured out or forth (M, K) together, or collectedly; (M;) also (M, K) sometimes (M) termed ↓ صُبٌّ. (M, K.) See also 1, near the beginning. b2: And A سُفْرَة [or piece of skin in which the traveller puts his food; or the thing upon which one eats]; (M, K;) so called because the food is poured into it, or upon it: (M:) or a thing like the سُفْرَة: (M, K:) and صُنَّةٌ, with ن, signifies the same. (M.) b3: See also صُبَابَةٌ, with which it is syn. b4: Also A company of men: (M, Msb, K:) [app. tropical; but it is said that] this is the primary meaning, and it is used in relation to camels, and sheep or goats, and the like, tropically. (TA.) b5: (tropical:) A detached number of horses, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) and of camels, (A, K,) and of sheep or goats, (A, Msb, K,) and of dirhems, or pieces of money: (A:) or from ten to forty: (A, K:) or from twenty to thirty and forty of camels and of sheep or goats: or less than a hundred (M, A, K) of camels: (M, K:) or of camels i. q. صِرْمَةٌ: (S:) and from ten to forty of goats: (Az, S:) or a flock of sheep or a herd of goats, as being likened to a company of men: (TA:) or from twenty to forty of sheep and of goats; or peculiarly of goats: or about fifty: or from sixty to seventy: and of camels about five or six: (IAth, TA:) and a collection of dirhems, or pieces of money, and of wheat, or food, &c.: and a piece of a thing: (Msb:) [or] a small quantity or portion of wealth or property. (M, K.) b6: And (assumed tropical:) A part, or portion, of the night: so in the saying, مَضَتْ صُبَّةٌ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ (assumed tropical:) [A part, or portion, of the night passed]. (S.) صَبَبٌ The descent, (تَصَوُّب, M, L, TA, in the K erroneously written تَصَبُّب, TA,) of a river, or rivulet, or channel of water, or of a road, down a declivity. (M, L, K, TA.) b2: And A declivity, declivous place, or ground sloping down; (M, A, K, TA;) and (TA) so ↓ صَبِيبٌ, of which the pl. is أَصْبَابٌ; (S, TA;) so too ↓ صَبُوبٌ and ↓ صُبُوبٌ, with fet-h and with damm; (TA;) [i. e.] ↓ الصَّبُوبُ signifies that down which you descend, or have descended, (مَا انْصَبَبْتَ فِيهِ,) and its pl. is صُبُبٌ [like عُمُدٌ pl. of عَمُودٌ]; (M, TA;) [and so ↓ الصُّبُوبُ;] or, as some say, ↓ الصَّبُوبُ, with fet-h, is a name for the water, &c., that is poured out upon a man, like طَهُورٌ and غَسُولٌ; and ↓ صُبُوبٌ, with damm, is pl. of صَبَبٌ: but Az mentions his having heard the Arabs apply ↓ صَبُوبٌ to a declivity, or declivous place; and says that its pl. is صُبُبٌ: (TA:) and الصَّبَبُ مِنَ الرَّمْلِ signifies what has poured out or forth or down, of sand: (M, K: *) and the pl. of صَبَبٌ is أَصْبَابٌ. (M, K.) صُبَابٌ: see صُبَابَةٌ.

صَبُوبٌ [app. syn. with ↓ صَابٌّ as part. n. of the intrans. verb صَبَّ, signifying Pouring out or forth or down; or like the latter but having an intensive meaning]: see صُبٌّ, in two places. b2: See also صَبَبٌ, in four places.

(A.) b3: and (M, K) some say (M) The expressed juice of عَنْدَم [or dragon's blood]. (M, K.) b4: And (M, K) some say (M) A certain red dye.

(Meyd, TA. *) In the following verse, cited by IAar, وَلَيْلٍ هَدَيْتُ بِهِ فِتْيَةً

الكَرَى الأَغْيَدِ ↓ سُقُوا بِصُبَابِ (tropical:) [During many a night have I guided in the right way young men infused with the remains of drowsiness that made them to bend their necks from side to side], صُبَاب may be put for صُبَابَة; or it may be pl. of the latter, [or rather a coll. gen. n. of which صُبَابَة is the n. un.,] like as شَعِيرٌ is of شَعِيرَةٌ: the poet uses this word metaphorically, in relation to drowsiness, like as he has used the word سُقُوا.
