ركض

1 رَكَضَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. رَكْضٌ, He moved, (S, A, K,) or struck with, (Msb,) his leg, or foot: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he struck and hit therewith, like as one strikes and hits therewith a beast. (IAth.) Hence, (S, A, K,) the phrase in the Kur [xxxviii. 41], (S,) اُرْكُضْ بِرِجْلِكَ [Strike thou the ground with thy foot]: (S, A, K:) or strike thou, and tread, the ground with thy foot. (Sgh.) Yousay also, رَكَضَ الرَّجُلُ (tropical:) The man struck the ground with his foot: and رَكَضَتِ الخَيْلُ (tropical:) The horses struck the ground with their hoofs: and جَآءَتِ الخَيْلُ رَكْضًا (tropical:) [The horses came striking the ground with their hoofs]: and رَكَضَتِ الجُنْدَبُ الرَّمْضَآءَ بِكُرَاعَيْهَا (tropical:) [The locusts termed جندب struck the vehemently-hot ground with their two legs]: and تَرَكْتُهُ يَرْكُضُ بِرِجْلِهِ لِلْمَوْتِ (tropical:) [I left him striking the ground with his foot previously to death: see also 8]. (A.) [The above-mentioned phrases marked as tropical are so marked on the authority of the A: but the reason of their being so I do not see.] b2: They also said, sometimes, رَكَضَ الطَّائِرُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) The bird moved his wings in flying: (S:) the inf. n., رَكْضٌ, signifying (tropical:) the act of moving the wing: (K, TA:) and الطَّائرُ يَرْكُضُ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ (tropical:) The bird moves his wings, and puts them back against his body: (A, TA:) or the former of these two phrases means (assumed tropical:) the bird was quick, or swift, in his flying. (TA.) b3: رَكْضٌ also signifies The act of impelling; syn. دَفْعٌ: and the urging a horse to run, (A, K, TA,) [by striking] with his foot or leg: (TA:) the striking a beast with one's feet or legs, to urge him: (Mgh:) or putting him in motion, whether he go on or not. (As.) You say, رَكَضْتُ الفَرَسَ بِرِجْلِى I urged the horse to run, with my foot or leg. (S, O, Msb. *) And رَكَضَ الدَّابَّةَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. رَكْضٌ, He struck the sides of the beast with his foot or leg. (TA.) And رَكَضَ الدَّابَّةَ بِرِجْلٍ, and بِرِجْلَيْنِ, He struck the beast to urge it with a foot or leg, and with two feet or legs. (A.) b4: And from frequency of usage of the phrase رَكَضْتُ الفَرَسَ, originated the saying رَكَضَ الفَرَسُ, (Az, * S, Mgh, Msb,) meaning (tropical:) The horse ran: (S, Mgh: *) which some disallow; but without reason, since it has been transmitted by a good authority: (Msb:) it is disallowed by As: (TA:) [and J says,] the correct phrase is رُكِضَ الفَرَسُ: (S:) or you say, رُكِضَ الفَرَسُ فَرَكَضَ هُوَ, meaning [The horse was urged to run,] (assumed tropical:) and he ran: (K:) and رَكْضٌ signifies (assumed tropical:) the act of running: (K, in another place in this art.:) and (assumed tropical:) the act of fleeing: whence, [in the Kur xxi. 12], إِذَا هُمْ مِنْهَا يَرْكُضُونَ (K) (assumed tropical:) lo, they fled from it, from punishment: (Zj:) or (assumed tropical:) were routed, and fled from it: (Fr:) or they ran from it: (Mgh:) [for] رَكَضَ الرَّجُلُ signifies (assumed tropical:) The man fled, and (assumed tropical:) ran. (ISh.) [Hence,] رَكَضَتِ النُّجُومُ فِى السَّمَآءِ (tropical:) The stars moved along in the sky. (A, TA.) [And hence,] رَكْضٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A man's going along by both his legs together. (TA.) b5: You also say, رَكَضَهُ البَعِيرُ (S, A, Msb) (tropical:) The camel struck him with his kind leg: (S, Msb:) like as you say, رَمَحَهُ الفَرَسُ: (A, Msb: *) but you should not say, [when a camel is the agent,] رَمَحَهُ. (Yaakoob, S.) and رَكَضَ الأَرْضَ, and الثَّوْبَ, (assumed tropical:) He struck the ground, and the garment, or piece of cloth, with his foot or leg. (TA.)

(A, TA.) b8: and هُوَ لَا يَرْكُضُ المِحْجَنَ (assumed tropical:) He does not defend himself: (K:) or (assumed tropical:) he is not angry and vexed at a thing, nor does he defend himself. (IAar, L.) b9: And رَكَضَ النَّارَ بَالمِرْكَضِ (tropical:) [He stirred the fire with the مَركَض]. (A.) 3 راكضهُ, (S, K,) or راكضهُ الخَيْلَ, (A,) He contended with him in a race, each making his horse to run. (S, K.) 4 اركضت, said of a woman, (K,) or of a mare, (A 'Obeyd, S, O, L,) (tropical:) Her fœtus became large in her belly, and moved about: (S, O, L, K:) or her fœtus moved about in her belly: (A 'Obeyd;) and so ↓ ارتكضت, said of a she-camel. (A, TA.) 6 خَرَجُوا يَتَرَاكَضُونَ [They went forth contending together in urging their horses]. (A.) and تراكضوا إِلَيْهِمْ خَيْلَهُمْ [They contended together in urging towards them their horses] (S, A) حَتَّى

أَدْرَكُوهُمْ [until they overtook them, or came up to them]. (A.) And فِى الحَلْبَةِ ↓ ارتكضوا [app. signifies They urged their horses in the raceground]. (A, TA.) 8 إِرْتَكَضَ see 6. b2: تَرَكْتُهُ يَرْتَكِضُ لِلْمَوْتِ (tropical:) [I left him struggling with, or convulsed in, his legs, previously to death: see also 1, near the beginning]. (A, TA.) b3: ارتكض also signifies (tropical:) It was, or became, in a state of commotion or agitation: (S, A, K:) said of a fœtus in the belly (S, A) of a mare: (S:) and of water in a well. (A, TA.) b4: ارتكض فُلَانٌ فِى أَمْرِهِ (tropical:) Such a one was, or became, agitated, or disturbed, or disquieted, in his affair: (S, TA:) and, which implies the same, (TA,) he exercised art, or cunning, (تَقَلَّبَ,) in his affair, and strove thereby to accomplish or effect it. (A, TA.) b5: Hence اِرْتِكَاضٌ signifying (assumed tropical:) The travel-ling through, or traversing, countries, or regions. (Har p. 660.) b6: See also 4.

رَكْضَةً An impulse: a motion: (K:) [pl. رَكَضَاتٌ: see an ex. voce رَفَضَاتٌ.] Hence, (TA,) it is said in a trad. of I'Ab, that the blood which continues to flow after menstruation is رَكْضَةٌ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ, (S, * TA,) i. e. An impulse from the devil; (S;) whereby he finds a way of putting the woman in doubt respecting the affairs of her religion, and her state of pureness, and her prayer. (TA.) b2: [Hence also,] one of the names of [the well of] Zemzem is رَكْضَةُ جِبْرِيلَ [The impulse of Gabriel; because it is fabled to have gushed forth on the ground's being struck by Gabriel's wings]. (TA.) رَكُوضٌ, applied to a bow (قَوْس), (tropical:) That sends the arrow swiftly: (S, TA:) or that impels it vehemently: and ↓ مُرْكِضَةٌ [or perhaps ↓ مِرْكَضَةٌ] signifies the same.

[Hence,] بِتُّ أَرْعَى النُّجُومَ وَهْىَ رَوَاكِضُ (tropical:) I passed the night observing the stars while they moved along in the sky. (A, TA.) تَرْكَضَى and تِرْكِضَآءُ, the former incorrectly written in the K تَرْكَضَآءُ, [or, in some copies, تَرْكُضَآءُ, and the latter in one copy written تَرْكِضَآءُ,] are there said to be used as examples by the grammarians, but not explained; and the author offers his opinion that they are syn. with رَكْضٌ: (TA:) but this is a strange defect: for AHei explains them as signifying A certain gait, in which is a proud and self-conceited air, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side: and he asserts the ت to be augmentative: (MF, TA:) and in the L they are expl. as signifying a particular kind of gait: or meaning as above. (TA.) مَرْكَضٌ The part of the flank of a horse which the rider strikes with his heel or foot, (A, TA, the latter in this art. and also voce يَعْسُوبٌ,) on either side: (TA:) pl. مَرَاكِضُ.

(TA.) b2: See also رَكُوضٌ. b3: Also (tropical:) A certain part of a bow; well known; one of [the two parts called] its مِرْكَضَتَانِ; (S;) or ↓ مِرْكَضَانِ: (IB:) each of the two curved extremities thereof; as also ↓ مِرْكَضٌ: (A:) or the side thereof: (K:) pl. مَرَاكِضُ.

(KL.)

(دمو or دمى) 1 دَمِىَ, (T, S, M, MA, Msb, K,) [held by some to be originally دَمِوَ,] like رَضِىَ, (S, K,) which is from الرِّضْوَانُ, being thus [with ى] because of the kesreh, (S,) [but most hold the last radical to be ى,] and دَمَى, (TA as from the Msb, [but not in my copy of the latter work,]) aor. ـْ inf. n. دَمًا or دَمًى (T, S, M, MA, Msb, K) and دُمِىٌّ, (S, MA, [but in the Msb it seems to be indicated that it is دَمَىٌ,]) said of a thing, (S,) or of a wound, (Msb,) and دَمِيَتْ said of the arm or hand, (T,) It bled; blood issued from it: (Msb:) [and] it was, or became, bloody; i. e., smeared, or defiled, with blood.

دَمَّاهُ signifies [also] he smeared him, or defiled him, or made him to be smeared or defiled, with blood. (MA.) Hence the prov., وُلْدُكِ مَنْ دَمَّى

عَقَبَيْكِ, (M, TA,) Thy son is he who made thy two heels to be smeared with blood; (TA in art. ولد;) i. e., whom thou thyself broughtest forth; (K and TA in that art.;) he is thy son really; not he whom thou hast taken from another, and adopted.

(Th, M.) 4 أَ1ْ2َ3َ see 2.10 استدمى He (a man) stooped his head, blood dropping from it; (M;) as also اِسْتَدَامَ, formed by transposition from استدمى. (Kr, TA in art. دوم.) A2: استدمى غَرِيمَهُ (assumed tropical:) He acted gently with his debtor; as also اِسْتَدَامَهُ: (Fr, M and K in art. دوم:) judged [by ISd] to be formed by transposition from the latter. (M in that art.) b2: استدمى مَوَدَّتَهُ He looked, or watched, or waited, for his love, or affection: [formed by transposition] from اِسْتَدَامَ. (M in art. دوم.) دَمٌ [Blood;] one of the [four] أَخْلَاط [or humours], (M,) well known: (T, M, K:) accord. to some, (Msb,) it is originally دَمَوٌ: (S, Msb:) or it is originally دَمًى; (Zj, Mbr, S, M, Msb, K;) thus in the correct copies of the K; (TA; [in some copies دَمْىٌ, and in the CK دَمَىٌ;]) though deviating from other words of the same form in respect of its pl. [which see below]; (Mbr, S;) as is shown by its dual, (Zj, M,) which is دَمَيَانِ, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) whereby [also] the letter gone from it is shown to be ى; (Mbr, S;) but it has also for its dual دَمَانِ; (T, M, Msb, K;) and some of the Arabs say دَمَوَانِ; (S, M;) in which last, however, [accord. to ISd,] the و is substituted for ى, though generally و is changed into ى: (M:) and this original form is used by a poet, [namely, Hoseyn Ibn-El-Homám, accord. to one of my copies of the S,] in his saying, فَلَسْنَا عَلَى الأَعْقَابِ تَدْمَى كُلُومُنَا

↓ وَلٰكِنْ عَلَى أَقْدَامِنَا يَقْطُرُ الدَّمَى

[And we have not our wounds bleeding upon the heels; but upon our feet the blood drops]: (S:) or it is originally دَمْىٌ; (Sb, T, S, M, Msb;) as is shown by its pls., (Sb, S,) which are دِمَآءُ (Sb, T, S, M, K) and دُمِىٌّ, (Sb, S, M, K,) also pronounced دِمِىٌّ; (TA;) like as ظَبْىٌ and دَلْوٌ have for their pls. ظِبَآءُ and ظُبِىٌّ and دِلَآءٌ and دُلِىٌّ; for if it were like قَفًا and عَصًا, it would not have such pls. (Sb, S.) دَمٌّ is ignored by Ks; but is used by poetic license; (M;) or it is a dial. var. of دَمٌ. (K in art. دم.) ↓ دَمَةٌ has a more special signification than دَمٌ, the two words being like بَيَاضَةٌ and بَيَاضٌ; (S;) [i. e.] it signifies A portion of blood: (T, M, K:) or it is a dial. var. of دَمٌ, (M, K,) accord. to IJ. (M.) The dim. of دَمٌ is ↓ دُمَىٌّ. (S.) [Hence,] رَجُلٌ ذُو دَمٍ A man seeking to obtain, or prosecuting for, [the revenge of] blood. (TA.) دَمُ فُلَانٍ فِى ثَوْبِ فُلَانٍ is a saying of the Arabs, meaning (assumed tropical:) Such a one is the slayer of such a one. (Ham p. 632.) الدَّمُ الدَّمُ وَالهَدْمُ الهَدْمُ, or وَالهَدَمَ الهَدَمَ, is a saying of the Arabs, meaning If thy blood be sought, my blood shall be sought; and if thy blood go for nought, my blood shall go for nought: or, accord. to the latter reading, as is said in the Nh, and where thou shalt be buried, I will be buried: or thine abode shall be mine abode. (JM in art. هدم, q. v.) See also an ex. voce دُمْيَةٌ. b2: دَمُ الأَخَوَيْنِ [The red, resinous, inspissated juice called dragon's blood;] what is called العَنْدَمُ; (S;) i. q. دَمُ الغَزَالِ; (K voce مَظٌّ;) now called القَاطِرُ الَمِكّىُّ; or a species thereof; (TA;) [vulgarly قَطْر مَكَّة; and also called دَمُ الثُّعْبَانِ;] what is called in Pers\. خُون سِيَاوُشَان (K.) b3: دَمُ الغِزْلَانِ A certain herb, or leguminous plant, having a beautiful blossom: (M, K:) accord. to Lth, الغِزْلَانِ ↓ دُمْيَةُ is the name of a certain herb, or leguminous plant, having a blossom.

الدَّمَى, said to be the original form of الدَّمُ: see دَمٌ.

دَمٍ Bleeding; having blood issuing from it: (S, * Msb:) [and] bloody; i. e. smeared, or defiled, with blood: and ↓ دَامٍ signifies the same [in both senses]. (MA.) دُمْيَةٌ An image, or effigy, (S, M, Mgh, K,) of ivory and the like, (S,) or of marble, (M, K,) variegated, decorated, embellished, or coloured, (M, Mgh, K,) in which is redness like blood: (Mgh:) or an image, or effigy, in a general sense: (Kr, M, K:) accord. to Abu-I-'Alà, because originally painted with red, as though from الدَّمُ: and any beautiful female is likened thereto, because adorned: (TA:) metonymically applied to (tropical:) a woman: (IAar, T:) or anything that is deemed beautiful in respect of whiteness: (TA:) and an idol: (Lth, S, K:) said in the R to be so called because of the shedding of blood at the place thereof for the purpose of propitiation; but MF says that this derivation requires consideration: more probably because it is decorated: (TA:) pl. دُمًى. (S, Mgh, K.) Accord. to MF, it is also pronounced ↓ دِمْيَةٌ. (TA.) One says, أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الدُّمْيَةِ, meaning More beautiful than the image of ivory. (Har p. 611.) And لَاوَ الدُّمَى is an oath of the Pagan Arabs, meaning No, by the idols: or, as some relate, it is ↓ لَا وَ الدِّمَآءِ meaning No, by the blood of what is sacrificed upon the stones set up to be worshipped: so in the Nh.
