ى1 حَرَى, aor. ـْ (S, K,) inf. n. حَرْىٌ, (S,) It (a thing S) decreased, diminished, or waned, (S, K, TA,) after increase; (TA;) as does, for instance, the moon. (S, TA.) [See an ex. in a verse cited in art. است.]

A2: حَرَى أَنْ يَكُونَ ذٰلِكَ i. q. عَسَى

[May-be, or may-hap, &c., that will be]. (TA.) A3: حَرِىَ بِكَذَا He was, or became, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, for such a thing; or worthy of it. (MA.) A4: حَرَاهُ: see 5.4 احراهُ It (time) caused it (a thing, S) to decrease, diminish, or wane. (S, K.) A2: مَا أَحْرَاهُ, and أَحْرِ بِهِ, How well adapted or disposed, or how apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, or how worthy, is he! (S, K.) [You say, مَا أَحْرَاهُ بِذٰلِكَ How well adapted or disposed, &c., is he for that!]5 تحرّى signifies قَصَدَ الحَرَى; i. e. He sought, or repaired to, the vicinage, quarter, tract, or region, of a people: this is said to be the primary signification: (Mgh:) and تحرّاهُ he sought, or repaired to, his vicinage, &c.; (قَصَدَ حَرَاهُ;) as also ↓ حَرَاهُ, aor. ـْ (TA:) he aimed at it; made it his object; sought, endeavoured after, pursued, or endeavoured to reach or attain or obtain, it; intended or purposed it; namely, a thing. (S, Mgh, Msb, K, TA.) Hence, in the Kur [lxxii. 14], فَأُولَائِكَ تَحَرَّوْا رَشَدًا Those have aimed at, or sought, &c., a right course. (S, TA.) And تَحَرَّيْتُ مَرْضَاتَهُ I aimed at, or sought, &c., his approval. (Mgh.) And the trad., تَحَرَّوْا لَيْلَةَ القَدْرِ فِى العَشْرِ الأَوَاخِرِ Seek ye the Night of القدر in the last ten [nights of Ramadán]. (TA.) — Also He sought what was most meet, suitable, fit, proper, or deserving, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) to be done, (S, K,) of two things, (Mgh, Msb,) according to the opinion predominating in his mind, (S,) فِى الأَمْرِ [in the affair, or case]: (Msb:) or he sought, or endeavoured, and strove in seeking, and deciding upon, the singling out of a thing, by deed and by word. (TA.) — And He tarried, waited, or paused in expectation, بِالمَكَانِ in the place. (S, K.) حَرًى The vicinage, quarter, tract, or region, (As, T, S, IAth, Mgh, K,) of a man, (As, T, IAth,) or of a people; (Mgh;) the environs (As, T, S) of a man, (As, T,) or of a house; (S;) and ↓ حَرَاةٌ signifies the same: (S, K:) and [it is said that] the former signifies also the place of the eggs of an ostrich: (S, K:) and a covert, or hiding-place, among trees, of a gazelle: (K, * TA:) Lth says that it signifies the place of laying eggs of the ostrich; or the covert, or lodging-place, of the gazelle: but this is false; for with the Arabs the word signifies as explained above on the authority of As and the حرى of the place of laying eggs of the ostrich, and of the covert of the gazelle, is the environs thereof: (T, TA:) pl. أَحْرَآءٌ. (K.) You say, اِذْهَبْ فَلَا أَرَيَنَّكَ بِحَرَاىَ and ↓ حَرَاتِى [Go thou, so that I may by no means see thee in my vicinage, &c.]. (S.) and لَا تَطُرْ حَرَانَا Approach not thou our environs. (S.) And نَزَلْتُ بِحَرَاهُ and بِعَرَاهُ [I alighted, or descended and abode, in his vicinage, &c.]. (S.) A2: See also حَرِىٌّ, in six places.

حَرٍ: see حَرِىٌّ, in four places.

حَرَاةٌ: see حَرًى, in two places.

حَرِىٌّ Adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, proper, or worthy; as also ↓ حَرٍ and ↓ حَرًى, which last has no dual nor pl., (S, Msb, K,) nor a fem. form, remaining unaltered, because it is [originally] an inf. n.; [see a verse cited voce نَقْرٌ;] or, accord. to Lh, one may say حَرَيَانِ, because Ks has related that some of the Arabs dualize what they do not pluralize: (TA:) the pl. of حَرِىٌّ is حَرِيُّونَ and أَحْرِيَآءُ; (S, Msb;) and the pl. of حَرِيَّةٌ is حَرِيَّاتٌ and حَرَايَا: the pl. of ↓ حَرٍ is أَحْرَآءٌ (S, TA) and حَرُونَ; and the pl. of حَرِيَةٌ is حَرِيَاتٌ. (TA.) You say, إِنَّهُ لَحَرِىٌّ بِكَذَا, and ↓ لَحَرِ, and ↓ لَحَرًى, (K, TA,) Verily he, or it, is adapted, &c., to such a thing; or worthy of such a thing. (TA.) And هُوَ حَرِىٌّ

أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذَاكَ, and ↓ حَرٍ, and ↓ حَرًى, He is adapted, &c., to do that: (S, Msb:) and ان ↓ انّه لَمَحْرًى

يفعل, (Lh, K, [in some copies of the K, erroneously, لَمَحْرِىٌّ,]) and ↓ لَمَحْرَاةٌ, (K,) which last has no dual nor pl. nor fem. form, like مَخْلَقَةٌ [q. v.] and مَقْمَنَةٌ: (TA:) and ↓ هٰذَا الأَمْرُ مَحْرَاةٌ لِذٰلِكَ [This thing, or affair, is adapted, &c., to that]. (S.) And hence the phrase, أَنْ ↓ بِالْحَرَى

يَكُونَ ذَاكَ (S, * K) It is suitable, fit, or proper, that that should be. (PS.) [But this phrase, in the present day, means Rather that should be. And hence, ↓ كَمْ بِالحَرَى How much rather.] One says also, of a man who has attained to fifty [years], ↓ فَحَرًى, meaning He is adapted, &c., to attain all that is good. (Th, TA.) And one says إِنَّهُ لَحَرِىٌّ as meaning Verily it is probable; or likely to happen or be, or to have happened or been; as also لَخَلِيقٌ. (TA in art. خلق.) حِرِىٌّ: see art. حرح.

حَارٍ masc. of حَارِيَةٌ, (M, TA,) which is an epithet applied to a viper (أَفْعًى); (S, M, K;) meaning That has decreased in its body by reason of age; and it is the worst, or most malignant or noxious, that is: (S:) or that has become old, and has wasted in its body, and whereof there remains not save its head and its breath (نَفَسُهَا [in the CK نَفْسُهَا]) and its poison: (M, K:) dim. ↓ حُوَيْرٍ. (TA.) One says, رَمَاكَ اللّٰهُ بِأَفْعًى حَارِيَةٍ [meaning (assumed tropical:) May God smile thee with an evil like a viper wasted by age]. (S.) حُوَيْرٍ: see what next precedes.

أَحْرَى More, and most, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper; or more, and most, worthy, or deserving. (S, * Mgh, Msb, K.) A thing is said to be أَحْرَى

بِالِاسْتِعْمَالِ [More, or most, meet, &c., to be done]. (S, K.) مَحْرًى: see حَرِىٌّ.

مَحْرَاةٌ: see حَرِىٌّ, in two places.

(Bd in ii. 32.) And ↓ اسجد He lowered his head, and bent himself; (AA, S, Mgh, K;) said of a man; (AA, S, Mgh;) and put his forehead on the ground: (Mgh:) and likewise said of a camel; (S, A;) in the latter case tropical; (A;) as also سَجَدَ; (A, Mgh, Msb;) meaning (tropical:) he lowered his head, (S, A, Mgh, Msb,) to be ridden, (S, Mgh,) or to his rider, (A,) or on the occasion of his being ridden, or mounted.

(Msb.) b3: It is said of Kisrà, in a trad., كَانَ يَسْجُدْ لِلطَّالِع, i. e. He used to lower himself, or bend himself down, to the arrow passing beyond the butt, going over it; which they used to reckon like that which hit the butt; meaning that he used to concede to the shooter thereof: or, accord. to Az, it means that he used to lower his head when his arrow was elevated [too high] above the object shot at, in order that the arrow might be rightly directed, and might hit the circle. (TA.) b4: And [as salutation is often accompanied with a bending of the body,] سُجُودٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The act of saluting. (L, TA.)

(Bd, Jel.) The سُجُود of inanimate things to God we understand, in the Kur, as denoting obedience to that whereto they are made subservient, and as a fact to be believed without inquiry into the manner thereof. (I'Ab, L.) A2: Also He stood erect: (Lth, Msb, K:) so in the dial. of Teiyi. (Msb.) It is said in the K, immediately after the mention of the first signification and this last, that thus the verb has two contr. meanings: but it may be said that there is no [necessary, or absolute,] contrariety between الخُضُوع and الاِنْتِصَاب. (MF.) A3: سَجِدَتْ رِجْلُهُ, aor. ـَ (tropical:) His leg became inflated, or swollen.

(A, TA.) سَجْدَةٌ A single act of سُجُود [as meaning prostrating oneself in prayer or the like: pl. سَجَدَاتٌ]: so in the phrase سَجَدْتُ سَجْدَةً [I performed a prostration of myself]: (Msb:) and قَرَأْتُ سُورَةَ السَّجْدَةِ [I recited, or read, the chapter of the prostration; which is the thirty-second chapter of the Kur-án].

(L.) b2: وَ ادْخُلُوا الْبَابَ سُجَّدًا, in the Kur [ii. 55 and vii. 161], means And enter ye the gate bending down your heads: (I'Ab, K:) it was a narrow [or low] gate.

مِنْ خَيْرِ ذِى نَطَفٍ أَغَنَّ مُنَطَّقٍ

وَافَى بِهَا لِدَرَاهِمِ الإِأَسْجَادِ [Of the wine of one with earrings, having a nasal twang, girded with a waist-belt, i. e., of a foreigner: he brought it for what are termed دراهم الاسجاد], (S, * O, K, but in the copies of the K كَدَرَاهِم, [which I think a mistranscription,]) means dirhems whereon were effigies to which people performed the act of سُجُود: (S, O, K:) it is said that upon them was the effigy of Kisrà, and he who beheld them lowered his head to them and showed humility [as the Persians in the present day do to the picture of their King]: (IAmb, TA:) or الأَسْجَاد means the tax called جِزْيَة: (O, K:) so says AO, (O,) or A 'Obeyd: (TA:) or the Jews and the Christians: (O, K:) some say the former and some say the latter: (O:) and it is read with kesr to the ء, and expl. as meaning the Jews, (O, K,) by IAar. (O.) [Whatever be the signification of the last word, the verse plainly means, “of wine of a foreigner, sold by him for foreign money. ”]

مَسْجَدٌ The forehead, (S, K,) where is the mark made by the سُجُوَد [or prostration in prayer]. (S.) [Said in the TA to be tropical; but not so accord. to the A.] And sing. of مَسَاجِدُ which signifies The parts of a man that are the places of سُجُود; (Lth, Mgh, Msb, L;) المَسَاجِدُ meaning the forehead, the nose, the hands, the knees, and the feet: (Mgh, L:) or the forehead, the hands, and the knees: (Mgh:) or the seven آرَاب; (S, K;) namely, the forehead, the hands, the knees, and the feet: (TA in art. ارب:) such, accord. to some, is its meaning in the Kur lxxii. 18. (L.) b2: See also the next paragraph, in two places.

مَسْجِدٌ [Any place in which one performs the act of سُجُود, or acts of worship or devotion; and particularly a mosque; a Muslim temple; an oratory;] a house in which one performs the act of سُجُود; (IB;) a house of prayer; (Mgh, Msb;) any place in which one performs acts of worship or devotion: (Zj:) a word of well-known meaning; (K;) sing. of مَسَاجِدُ; (S, Mgh, K;) and also pronounced ↓ مَسْجَدٌ: (S, K:) this latter word signifies, accord. to IAar, the مِحْرَاب [here meaning oratory, or place of private prayer,] of a house; and the place of prayer of the congregations; (TA;) or it signifies any of the parts of the ground, as well as of the body, that are the places of سُجُود: (Lth, L:) or the place of the forehead [on the ground in the act of prostration in prayer]. (IB.) Fr says, (S,) the مَفْعل of every verb of the class of فَعَلَ having its aor. of the measure يَفْعُلُ is with fet-h to the medial radical letter, whether it be a subst, or an inf. n., (S, K,) without any difference, so that you say, دَخَلَ مَدْخَلًا, and هٰذَا مَدْخَلُهُ; (S;) except some words (S, K) among substs., (S,) as مَسْجِدٌ and مَطْلِعٌ (S, K) and مَغْرِبٌ (S) and مَشْرِقٌ and مَسْقِطٌ and مَفْرِقٌ and مَجْزِرٌ and مَسْكِنٌ and مَرْفِقٌ (S, K) from رَفَقَ, aor. ـْ (S,) and مَنْبِتٌ and مَنْسِكٌ (S, K) from نَسَكَ, aor. ـْ (S;) these being with kesr (S, K) to the medial radical letter (K) as a sign of their being substs.; but sometimes some of the Arabs pronounce it with fet-h in the subst.: مَسْكِنٌ and مَسْكَنٌ have been transmitted; and we have heard المَسْجِدُ and ↓ المَسْجَدُ, and المَطْلِعُ and المَطْلَعُ: and he further says, (S,) fet-h is allowable, (S, K,) in all of these, (S,) even if we have not heard it: but when the verb is of the class of فَعَلَ having its aor. of the measure يَفْعِلُ, the n. of place [or time] is with kesr, and the inf. n. is with fet-h, to distinguish the one from the other; so that you say, نَزَلَ مَنْزَلًا, meaning نُزُولًا, and هٰذَا مَنْزِلُةُ, meaning دَارُهُ. (S, K. *) b2: [Hence مَسْجِدٌ جَامِعٌ A congregational mosque; i. e. a mosque in which a congregation assembles to perform the Friday-prayers.] المَسْجِدُ الحَرَامُ [The sacred mosque of Mekkeh]. (Msb in art. حرم.) المَسْجِدُ الأَقْصَى The furthest mosque [which is in Jerusalem]. (Msb in art. قصو.) مَسْجِدُ الخَيْفِ The mosque of the خَيْف [q. v.] in Minè. (S &c. in art. خيف.) And المَسْجِدَانِ The two mosques; that of Mekkeh and that of El-Medeeneh: (S, Mgh:) so in a verse cited in the first paragraph of art. ثرو. (S.) مِسْجَدَةٌ: see سَجَّادَةٌ.

عفو: عَفا: لم يذكر لين إلاّ عفّى على، غير أن عفا تستعمل أيضاً، يقال، عفا عليه التراب بمعنى غطاه التراب فلم يعرف. (معجم البلاذري). وفي تاريخ البربر (1: 434): فأزال السلطان تلك السِكة وعفا عليها. (وهذا صواب قراءة العبارة بدل عليه وفقاً لما جاء في مخطوطتنا رقم 135) أي أزالها.
عَفا: ألْغى أمراً؟ (ألكالا) وهو يذكر: نهفو وأهفيت وأهفو ويكتبها كذلك كما لو كان هذا الفعل حفو، غير أن حفو هذا لا يوافق المعنى.

عافاك: مرحى؛ أحسنت، ممتاز، حبذا، يا حبذا، ة عظيم، نعما. (بوشر).
عافاكم العرب: مرحى أيها العرب، يا حبذا العرب، أحسنتم أيها العرب. (جاكسون تمبكتو ص141).
أعفى: بمعنى عفا: محا، دمر، خرب (ريجرز ص21) حسب ما جاء في مخطوطتنا (رقم 1) وحسب ما جاء في مخطوطة باريس (رقم ج) التي يعتمد عليها دي ساسي. أما مخطوطتنا (رقم ب) ففيها عافي غير أن الناشر يرى أن عفا أفضل، وهذه موجودة في طبعة باريس. غير أن عبارة في المقري (1: 339) تؤيد كلمة أعفاه، لأن المصدر إعفاء يعني الإبادة والتخريب.
أعفى: بمعنى جعله في حل من الأمر، وصرفه عن منصبه لا تليها من فقط فيقال: إعفاء من، بل تليها عن أيضاً فيقال: إعفاء عن (معجم أبي الفداء بوشر، كليلة ودمنة ص238).

عَافِية: نشاط. (بوشر).
عافِية: هدوء، سكينة وسكون. (بوشر بربرية).
ويقال: راح بعافيته أي ذهب بهدوء. وفي رياض النفوس (ص92 و): قال له وهو يهدده بسكين لئن لم ترح بعافيتك لأخضبنها من دمك.

عفو

1 عَفَا, aor. ـْ (S, Msb,) inf. n. عَفَآءٌ (S, Msb, K) and عُفُوٌّ and عَفْوٌ, (Msb, K,) It was, or became, effaced, erased, rased, or obliterated; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ تعفّى: (K:) and it, or he, perished, came to nought or to an end, or died. (S, TA.) One says, عَفَا الأَثَرُ The trace, vestige, or footprint, was, or became, effaced, &c. (TA.) And [hence,] عَفَا

أَثَرُهُ, inf. n. عَفَآءٌ, He perished, or died. (K.) And عَفَا المَنْزِلُ, aor. as above. (S, Msb,) and so the inf. ns. as in the first sentence, (Msb,) the place of alighting, or abode, was, or became effaced, &c., (S, Msb:) and عَفَت الدَّارُ. aor. ـف inf. a عَفَآءٌ and عُفُوٌّ [and عَفْوٌ]: (TA;) and ↓ تَعَفَّت, (S, TA.) and ↓ عَفَّت also; (TA;) The house, or dwelling, or abode, was, or became, effaced, &c. (S, TA) A'Obeyd cites, as an ex. of العَفَآءُ signifying the being, or becoming, effaced, &c., and the perishing, &c., the saying of Zuheyr, (S, TA.) mentioning a dwelling, or an abode, (TA.) تَحَمَّلُ أَهُلَهَا عَنْهَا فَبَانُوا عَلَى آثَارِ مَا ذَهَبَ العَفَآءُ [Its occupants departed from it, and separated themselves, or removed far away; may the state of that which is effaced, &c., be or rest, upon the traces of what has gone away; or the meaning may be, dust is upon the traces &c., (see عَفَآءٌ as a subst., below;) but it is not thus accord to A 'Obeyd; for] he says, This is like their saying عَلَيْهِ الدَّبَارُ as an imprecation against one expressing a prayer that he may go away and not return. (S, TA.) MF says that عَفَا is one of those verbs that have contr. significations, for at signifies It was, or became, unapparent, or imperceptible and also It was, or became, apparent, or perceptible: and it has two other contr. significations, which will be mentioned in what follows (TA.) b2: And عَفْوٌ signifies also The act of effacing, erasing, rasing, or obliterating. (K, TA.) One says, عَفَتِ الرِّيحُ الأَثَرَ, (TA,) or المَنْزِلَ, (S, Msb,) and الدَّارَ, (TA,) the wind effaced, &c, (S, Msb, TA,) the trace, vestige, or footprint, (TA,) or the place of alighting, or abode, (S, Msb,) and the house, or dwelling, or abode: (TA:) and in like manner, الرِّيحُ ↓ عَفَّتِ الدَّارَ, (S, TA,) inf. n. تَعْفِيَةٌ, (TA,) in which the verb is with teshdeed to denote intensiveness [of the signification, i. e. the wind effaced, &c., mightily, or utterly, the house, or dwelling, or abode]: (S, TA:) and عَلَى أَثَرِهِ ↓ عَفَّى It, or he, effaced its, or his, trace, vestige, or footprint. (MA.) b3: Hence, as some say, عَفَا اللّٰهُ عَنْكَ i. e. May God efface [from thee thy sin, &c.; meaning may God absolve thee]; (TA;) or may God efface thy sins: (Msb:) [and عُفِىَ عَنْهُ May he be absolved, or forgiven, or pardoned:] and hence the saying in a trad., سَلُوا اللّٰهَ العَفْوَ i. e. [Ask ye of God] the effacement of sin; [or ask ye of God absolution, or forgiveness, or pardon;] and ↓ المُعَافَاةَ, and ↓ العَافِيَةَ [which have a similar meaning: see 3]: (TA:) and one says, عَفَوْتُ عَنْ ذَنْبِهِ, meaning I left him, and did not punish him: (S:) or عَفَوْتُ عَنْهُ and عَفَوْتُ عَنْ ذَنْبِهِ and عَفَوْتُ لَهُ عَنْ ذَنْبِهِ i. e. I turned away from him, or from his crime, sin, fault, or offence; syn. صَفَحْتُ عَنْهُ; and I turned away (أَعْرَضْتُ) from punishing him: (Mgh:) or العَفْوُ signifies the turning away (الصَّفْحُ, K, TA) from the committer of a crime or the like; (TA;) and the relinquishing the punishment of the deserving [thereof]: and one says, عَفَا عَنْهُ and عَفَا لَهُ ذَنْبَهُ and عَنْ ذَنْبِهِ [he turned away from him, or from his crime, &c; and relinquished the infliction of his merited punishment, i. e. forgave him, or pardoned him]: (K, TA:) or عَفَا عَنْهُ ذَنْبَهُ and عَفَا لَهُ ذَنْبَهُ and عَنْ ذَنْبِهِ: (so accord. to the CK:) accord. to MF, the primary signification of العَفْوُ is التَّرْكُ: but this is not the case: and الصَّفْحُ [by which it is expl. in the K] is [or rather implies] the relinquishing of blame, or reproof, or of severe, or angry, blame or reproof; and this is more than [is signified by]

العَفْوُ, for the latter is sometimes without the former: the primary signification of العَفْوُ [when trans.] is [said to be] the purposing to take a thing; and Er-Rághib says that عَفَوْتُ عَنْكَ is as though it meant I have purposed to remove [or to take away] thy crime or the like: (TA:) [but I think that the primary signification of العَفْوُ when its object is a crime or the like is that of effacement: and hence likewise what next follows:] b4: العَفْوُ is also metaphorically used as meaning (tropical:) The withdrawing from a right, or due, and from seeking, or demanding, it: and thus the verb is used in the Kur ii. 238 [q. v.]: and in the saying of the Prophet, عَفَوْنَا لَكُمْ عَنْ صَدَقَةِ الخَيْلِ وَالرَّقِيقِ [i. e. (tropical:) We have remitted to you the poor-rate of horses and of the slave or slaves]: (Mgh:) [and hence] عَفَوْتُ عَنِ الحَقِّ means (assumed tropical:) I have annulled [or remitted] the right, or due; as though I erased it from [the account of] him who owed it: (Msb:) and عَفَوْتُ لَهُ عَنْ مَا لِى عَلَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) I have relinquished [or remitted] to him what was due to me on his part. (TA.) A2: عَفَا signifies also It was, or became, much in quantity, or many in number: (Msb, MF, TA:) and also the contr., i. e. It was, or became, little in quantity, or few in number. (MF, TA.) It is said in the former sense of hair, and of herbage, &c.: (S:) or, said of hair, It was, or became, long, and much in quantity; (TA;) and said of the hair of a camel, (K,) or of the hair of a camel's back, (TA,) it became abundant and long, and covered his rump; (K, TA;) and said of herbage, it was, or became, much in quantity, and tall. (TA.) And عَفَوْا in the Kur vii. 93 means They became many, or numerous. (S, Msb.) And عَفَتِ الأَرْضُ The land became covered with herbage. (K and TK. [In the CK, والارضَ is erroneously put for وَالأَرْضُ.]) b2: And عَفَوْتُهُ I made it to become much in quantity, or many in number; as also ↓ أَعْفَيْتُهُ; (S, * Msb, TA; *) and so ↓ عَفَّيْتُهُ. (TA.) Accord. to Es-Sarakustee, one says, عَفَوْتُ الشَّعَرَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. عَفْوٌ; and عَفَيْتُهُ, aor. ـْ inf. n. عَفَىٌ; meaning I left the hair to become abundant and long. (Msb.) And one says, اللِّحْيَةَ ↓ اعفى He left the beard to become abundant and long, (Mgh, K, TA,) having ceased from cutting it: (Mgh:) whence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., أَمَرَ أَنْ تُحْفَى

الشَّوَارِبُ وَتُعْفَى اللُّحَى [He commanded that the mustaches should be clipped closely, or much, and that the beards should be left to become abundant and long]: (S, TA:) or أَحْفُوا الشَّوَارِبَ وَأَعْفُوا اللِّحَى [Clip ye &c.], and one may also use the unaugmented verb [saying وَاعْفُوا, from عَفَا]. (Msb, TA.) And شَعَرَ البَعِيرِ ↓ أَعْفَيْتُ, (K,) or شَعَرَ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ, (TA,) I left the hair of the camel, or the hair of the back of the camel, to become abundant and long; as also ↓ عَفَّيْتُهُ; (K, TA;) this latter with teshdeed. (TA. [In the CK, عَفَيْتُهُ.]) عَفَا الصُّوفَ, expl. in the K as signifying He shore, or sheared, the wool, signifies he left the wool to become abundant and long, then shore, or sheared, it. (TA.) A3: Also, inf. n. عَفْوٌ, i. q. فَضَلَ or superfluous; or it remained over and above]. (Msb.) You say, خُذْ مَا صَفَا وَعَفَا, [correctly, مَا عَفَا وَصَفَا,] meaning فَضَلَ وَتَسَهَّلَ [i. e. Take thou what has exceeded, or become redundant, and has become facilitated]. (Mgh.) b2: [And He exceeded.] You say, عَفَا عَلَيْهِ فِى العِلْمِ He exceeded him in knowledge; syn. زَادَ. (K.) And هُوَ يَعْفُو عَلَى مُنْيَةِ المُتَمَنِّى وَسُؤَالِ السَّائِلِ He exceeds, in giving, the wish of the wisher and the petition of the petitioner. (TA.) And عَفَوْتُ لَهُ بِمَالِى I exceeded to him [what was incumbent on me] with my property, and gave him. (TA.) b3: And عَفَا, aor. ـْ signifies also [simply] He gave. (TA.) And ↓ اعفاهُ He gave to him, namely, one seeking, or demanding, his beneficence. (Ham pp. 377 and 723.) And بِحَقِّهِ ↓ اعفاهُ He gave to him fully, or wholly, his right, or due. (Har p. 117.) b4: And عَفَوْتُ لَهُ مِنَ المَرَقِ I laded out for him first, and gave to him in preference, some of the broth. (S. [See عِفَاوَةٌ.]) b5: And عَفَوْتُ القِدْرَ I left in the bottom of the cooking-pot [as a gratuity for the lender thereof] the last of the broth, which is termed the عُفَاوَة. (S.) A4: and عَفَوْتُ الرَّجُلَ I asked, or petitioned, the man. (Msb.) And عَفَوْتُهُ and ↓ اِعْتَفَيْتُهُ I came to him seeking, or demanding, his beneficence: you say, فُلَانٌ تَعْفُوهُ الأَضْيَافُ and ↓ تَعْتَفِيهِ [Such a one, guests come to him seeking, or demanding, his hospitality].

(S, K.) 2 عَفَّتِ الدَّارُ: b2: and عَفَّتِ الرِّيحُ الدَّارَ: and عَفَّى عَلَى أَثَرِهِ: see 1, former half, in three places. [Hence] one says, عَفَّى عَلَيْهِمُ الخَبَالُ, inf. n. تَعْفِيَةٌ, [Perdition, or destruction, &c., effaced them,] meaning (tropical:) they died. (Z, K, TA.) And عَفَّى

عَلَى مَا كَانَ مِنْهُ [He effaced what had proceeded from him], meaning (assumed tropical:) he acted well, or rightly, after acting ill, or wrongly. (S.) A2: See also 1, latter half, in two places. b2: [Hence] one says, عَفُّوا ظَهْرَ هٰذَا الجَمَلِ, meaning Leave ye this camel [lit. the back of this camel] so that he may become fat. (TA.) 3 عافاهُ اللّٰهُ, (S, Msb, K,) مِنَ المَكْرُوهِ, inf. n. مُعَافَاةٌ (K) and عِفَآءٌ (TA as from the K) and ↓ عَافِيَةٌ, (K,) or this is a subst.

(Msb. See also 1, former half.) And عُوفِىَ and ↓ اعفى [the latter perhaps أَعْفَى, but more probably, I think, أُعْفِىَ, agreeably with what here precedes,] are both used in the same sense, said of a sick person [as meaning He was restored to health, or soundness]. (TA.) b2: And مُعَافَاةٌ signifies also God's defending thee from men and defending them from thee: (K, TA:) IAth says that it signifies his rendering thee independent, or in no need, of them, and rendering them independent, or in no need, of thee, and averting their harm from thee and thy harm from them: and some say that it signifies one's forgiving, or pardoning, men, and their forgiving, or pardoning, him. (TA. [See also 6.]) 4 اعفاهُ مِنَ الأَمْرِ He made him to be free, or exempted him, from the affair. (K.) You say, أَعْفِنِى مِنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ and أَعْفِ عَنِّى مِنْهُ [Make thou me to be free, or exempt thou me, from this affair]. (TA.) And أَعْفِنِى مِنَ الخُرُوجِ مَعَكَ Exempt thou me, or excuse me, from going forth with thee.

(TA.) 5 تَعَفَّوَ see 1, first and fourth sentences.6 التَّعَافِى signifies [The forgiving, or pardoning, one another, or] the turning away from punishing one another: and تَعَافَوُا الحُدُودَ فِيمَا بَيْنَكُمْ, originally تَعَافَوْا عَنِ الحُدُودِ, [i. e. Relinquish ye the prescribed punishments in respect of what occurs between you,] means let every one of you turn away from [or relinquish] punishing his fellow; the phrase being elliptical, or the verb being made to imply the meaning of التَّرْك, and therefore being made trans. in the same manner as الترك: [hence,] لَوْ تَعَافَيْتُهَا is used by El-Hareeree as meaning If I relinquished them: (Har p. 60:) [and hence it is said that التَّعَافِى signifies التَّجَاوُزُ [app. when each is followed by عَنْ, and thus meaning The passing by, or over, another, or one another, without punishing]. (TA.) A2: And it signifies also The finding, experiencing, or obtaining, health, or soundness.

(K.) b2: And A redundant portion, (S, Mgh, K,) being such as is left, (Mgh,) of property, remaining over and above what is expended. (S.)

وَلَا تَنْطِقِى فِى سَوْرَتِى حِينَ أَغْضَبُ [Take thou what is redundant from me, seeking the continuance of my affection; and speak not in my fit of irritation, when I am angry]. (S.) قُلِ العَفْوَ, in the Kur [ii. 217], means Say thou, Expend ye what is redundant and abundant. (TA.) And خُدِ العَفْوَ, in the same [vii. 198]. means [Take thou, or accept thou,] what is redundant: or accept thou what is easily obtained from the dispositions of men; and oppose them not, for in that case they would oppose thee, and thence would be engendered hatred and enmity.
