(KL.) b2: And رَعَنٌ also signifies [simply] The being slack, or loose; or slackness, or looseness; as in the saying of a rájiz, (S, TA,) namely, Khitám El-Mujáshi'ee, (TA,) describing a she-camel, وَرَحَلُوهَا رِحْلَةً فِيهَا رَعَنْ [And they saddled her in a manner of saddling in which was a slackness, or looseness]; i. e. they did not bind her saddle firmly, by reason of fear and haste. (S, TA.) Also The being unsteady, or in a state of commotion or agitation: and quickly changing or altering. (Meyd, in explanation of a prov. cited below, voce أَرْعَنُ.)

(TA.) رَاعِنَا in the phrase لَا تَقُولُوا رَاعِنَا, in the Kur [ii. 98, and occurring again in iv. 48], is said to be a word meant to convey a reviling of the Prophet, derived from [the inf. n.] الرُّعُونَةُ: El-Hasan read رَاعِنًا, with tenween: and Th says that the phrase means Say not ye a lie, and mockery, and foolishness. (TA.) [See also 4 in art. رعى.]

أَرْعَنُ, (S, K,) applied to a man, (S,) Foolish, stupid, unsound in intellect or understanding, or deficient therein, and lax, flaccid, slack, or languid: (S, K:) or, so applied, foolish, or stupid: (KL:) [and also soft, weak, relaxed, or languid: (see 1:)] and foolish, or stupid, and hasty, in speech: (K:) fem., applied to a woman, رَعْنَآءُ: (S:) [pl. رُعْنٌ.] b2: [Its primary application, though I do not find it mentioned, is probably to a mountain, as meaning Having a رَعْن, or prominence, or projecting part: accord. to Freytag, “ is qui habet رعن: ” and then poetically used, in the Deewán of Jereer, as signifying a mountain. b3: And hence,] also, applied to a man, (assumed tropical:) Having a long nose [likened to a رَعْن]. (TA.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) An army having redundant parts, or portions, (K, TA,) like the رِعَان of mountains: (TA:) or an army has this epithet applied to it as being likened to the رَعْن of a mountain: or, as some say, the epithet thus applied means in a state of commotion by reason of its numerousness. (S.) b5: El-Basrah is termed الرَّعْنَآءُ, as being likened to the رَعْن of a mountain; (IDrd, S, K;) i. e., because of a bend in it: (TA:) or because of the abundant flow of the river there, and its sultry heat: (Az, MF:) or because of the ease and plenty that are in it, and as being likened to the woman to whom this epithet is applied; or because of the languidness and changeableness of its air. (Er-Rághib, TA.) b6: And الرَّعْنَآءُ is also a name of A sort of grapes, of Et-Táïf, (K, TA,) white, and long in the berries. (TA.) A2: أَرْعَنُ مِنْ هَوَآءِ البَصْرَةِ is a prov., meaning More unsteady and changeable than the air of El-Basrah. (Meyd.) مَرْعُونٌ: see 1, last sentence.

رم

ى1 رَمَى الشَّىْءَ, (T, * S, M, K,) aor. ـْ (T,) inf. n. رَمْىٌ; (T, M;) and رَمَى بِهِ; (M, K;) He threw, cast, or flung, the thing, (S, K,) مِنْ يَدِهِ from his hand; (S, TA;) as also ↓ ارمى; (M, K;) i. e. ارمى الشَّىْءَ مِنْ يَدِهِ: (M: [in the K it is implied that one says also بَهِ ↓ ارمى; agreeably with a phrase mentioned in what follows:]) you say, الحَجَرَ مِنْ يَدِى ↓ أَرْمَيْتُ I threw the stone from my hand: (S:) and الفَرَسُ بِرَاكِبِهِ ↓ ارمى

The horse threw, or threw down, [i. e. threw off,] his rider: (T:) رَمَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ is said إِذَا رَمَيْتَهُ بِيَدِكَ; [i. e., as meaning رَمَيْتُهُ بِيَدِى; which may be rendered I threw him (the man) with my hand; and also I threw, or shot, at him (the man) with my hand;] but when you remove him from his place, you say, عَنِ الفَرَسِ وَغَيْرِهِ ↓ أَرْمَيْتُهُ [I threw him, or threw him down or off, from the horse &c.]: (Msb:) and عَنْ فَرَسِهِ ↓ طَعَنَهُ فَأَرْمَاهُ, meaning [He thrust him, or pierced him, with his spear,] and threw him, or threw him down [or off], from his horse: (El-Fárábee, S, Msb:) and الحِمْلَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ ↓ أَرْمَيْتُ I threw down the load from the back of the camel. (T.) وَمَا رَمَيْتَ

إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمَى, in the Kur [viii. 17], is said by Aboo-Is-hák to be tropical, and to mean (tropical:) And thou didst not cast [in effect, or] so as to attain the point that was attained, [when thou didst cast,] but God [cast in effect, i. e.,] overruled the casting: or, accord. to Abu-l-' Abbás, the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) thou didst not cast fear, or terror, into their hearts, when thou didst cast the pebbles, [but God cast the fear, or terror:] or, accord. to Mbr, (assumed tropical:) thou didst not cast with thy strength, when thou didst cast, but with the strength of God thou didst cast [so that in effect God cast]. (T. [See also another explanation in what follows.]) b2: [رَمَى بِسَلْحِهِ He cast forth his excrement, or ordure, or properly, in a thin state, is a phrase of frequent occurrence.] b3: You say also, رَمَيْتُ بِالسَّهْمِ [I shot the arrow], inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ.

though some make it to mean [رَمَى عَنْهَا or] رَمَى

عَلَيْهَا, making the ب to be instead of عن or على. (Msb.) b4: And رَمَى القَنَصَ, (S, M,) or الصَّيْدَ, [He shot, or shot at, the animal, or animals, of the chase,] inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ, (Msb,) or رَمْىٌ, and none other. (M.) [And رَمَاهُ بِكَذَا He threw at him, cast at him, or shot at him, with such a thing; i. e. he threw it, cast it, or shot it, at him: and, more commonly, he threw at him, or cast at him, and hit him, or he shot him, with such a thing: namely, with a stone, an arrow, &c. and رَمَاهُ بِحِجَارَةً He threw at him with stones, threw stones at him: and he pelted him with stones, i. e. threw at him and hit him with stones.] and رَمَى فِى الأَغْرَاضِ [He shot, or cast, at the butts]. (ISk, T, S, M.) b5: [Hence,] one says, in cursing a person, رَمَى اللّٰهُ فِى يَدِهِ, and أَنْفِهِ, (assumed tropical:) [May God aim at, and smite, with some bane, or malady, his hand, or arm, and his nose,] and in like manner in relation to other members. (M, K. *) [And رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِكَذَا, sometimes meaning (assumed tropical:) God smote him, or afflicted him, with such a thing: but generally, may God smite him, or afflict him, with such a thing; as in the saying,] رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِدَآءِ الذِّئْبِ (assumed tropical:) [May God smite him, or afflict him, with the disease of the wolf]; a prov., meaning may God destroy him, or cause him to perish; because [it is said that] the wolf has no disease but death: or, as some say, the meaning is, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِالجُوعِ [may God afflict him with hunger]; because the wolf is always hungry. (Meyd.) and رَمَاهُ بِدَاهِيَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [He (God) sent upon him, or against him,. or smote him with, a calamity: and also] (assumed tropical:) he (a man) made a very sagacious and crafty and politic man to be his assailant. (L in art. حجر. [See also, in that art., رُمِىَ فُلَانٌ بِحَجِرِ الأَرْضِ, and بِحَجَرِهِ.]) [And رَمَاهُ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He assailed him with such a thing; as, for instance, reproach, and an argument, &c. Hence,] رَمَاهُ بِقَبِيحٍ, (TA,) or بِأَمْرٍ قَبِيحٍ, (IAar, T,) or بِالقَبِيحِ, (Msb,) (assumed tropical:) He reproached him, or upbraided him, with a thing, or with that, which was bad, evil, abominable, or foul: (IAar, T, Msb, TA:) whence the usage of the verb alone [in this sense, adultery being understood,] in the Kur xxiv. 4 and 6. (T, TA.) [And رَمَاهُ بِسُوْءٍ (assumed tropical:) He cast an evil imputation upon him; accused him, or suspected him, of evil: see مَرْمِىٌّ. And رَمَاهُ alone (assumed tropical:) He accused him, or suspected him.] And رَمَاهُ بِالحَقِّ (assumed tropical:) [He accused him with truth]. (L in art. قرح, in explanation of قَرَحَهُ بِالحَقِّ.) [And رَمَاهُ بِلِسَانِهِ (assumed tropical:) He spoke against him.] b6: رَمَى اللّٰهُ لَكَ means (tropical:) May God aid thee, or aid thee against thine enemy, and work [good] for thee: (AO, S, TA: *) and رَمَى اللّٰهُ لَهُ (tropical:) God aided him, or aided him against his enemy, (AAF, M, K, TA,) and wrought [good] for him: (AAF, M, TA:) and [it is said that] the verb has this meaning in the words of the Kur, وَمَا رَمَيْتَ إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمَى

[of which other explanations have been given above]; because, when God aids a person against his enemy, He aims at, and smites, (يَرْمِى,) that enemy. (M, TA.) [In like manner, also, فُلَانٌ يَرْمِى مِنْ وَرَآءِ فُلَانٍ means (assumed tropical:) Such a one defends such a one.] b7: رُمِيتُ بِكَذَا (tropical:) I had such a thing offered, or presented, to me, the meeting with it being appointed, or prepared; [I had it as it were thrown to me, or thrown in my way; as though I were thrown at therewith;] like نُبِذْتُ بِهِ.

(Th, M, TA.) And رَمَى الرَّجُلُ (assumed tropical:) The man journeyed. (IAar, T, TA.) And Az says, (TA,) I heard an Arab of the desert say to another, أَيْنَ تَرْمِى, meaning (assumed tropical:) Whither dost thou direct thy course. (T, TA.) One says, رَأَيْتُ نَاسًا يَرْمُونَ الطَّائِفَ (assumed tropical:) I saw men directing their course to, or towards, Et-Táïf. (Har p. 54.) [See also an ex. in a verse of Dhu-r-Rummeh cited in p. 78.] b10: رَمَوْهَا بِأَثْوَابٍ خِفَافٍ, in a verse cited voce ثَوْبٌ, [They cast upon them light, or agile, bodies,] means they mounted them with their [light, or agile,] bodies; referring to camels. (T and TA in art. ثوب.) b11: رُمِىَ فِى جِنَازَتِهِ He has been carried, or lifted, and put, into, or upon, his bier, means (assumed tropical:) he died, or has died: (TA:) it is said in giving information of a man's death. (TA in art. جنز.) b12: [رَمَى also app. means (assumed tropical:) He (a governor) imposed an impost upon his subjects: see رَمِيَّةٌ.]

b13: And رَمَى, aor. ـْ means also (assumed tropical:) He misconjectured; thought wrongly; or formed a wrong opinion: (IAar, T:) [and app. he threw out a conjecture: or he spoke conjecturally; for Az adds,] it is like the phrase رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ [or رَجَمَ بِالغَيْبِ or قَالَ رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ]. (T.) b14: رَمَى السَّحَابُ: see 6. b15: رَمَى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ: see 4.

A2: رَمُوَ is a verb of the same kind as قَضُوَ and هَيُؤَ, [invariable as to person, time, and mood,] and means Excel-lent [or how excellent] is he in his throwing, or shooting! (IJ, TA voce هَيُؤَ, q. v. [See also بَطُؤَ, voce بُطْآنَ.]) 3 رَامَيْتُهُ, (S, K,) and رَامَيْتُهُ بِالسِّهَامِ, (TA,) inf. n. مُرَامَاةٌ and رِمَآءٌ (T, S, K) and ↓ تَرْمَآءٌ, (K,) or this last is like the two preceding ns. [in meaning, but is a quasi-inf. n.], (T,) [I threw, or shot, (generally the latter,) and I shot arrows, with him, or at him; (see 6;) mostly meaning in competition, or contention; i. e. I competed, or contended, with him, in throwing, or shooting, and in shooting arrows: and رَامَيْتُهُ alone often means رَامَيْتُهُ بِالحِجَارَةِ, or بِالسِّهَامِ; whence it is said that] مُرَامَاةٌ signifies the shooting arrows, and throwing stones, with any one. (KL.) It is said in a prove., respecting an affair in which one is forward before doing it, قَبْلَ الرِّمَآءِ تُمْلَأُ الكَنَائِنُ [Before shooting arrows with another, or doing so in competition or contention, the quivers are to be filled]. (A 'Obeyd, T.) 4 أَرْمَىَ see 1, first sentence, in seven places: b2: and see also 6.

A2: ارمى, (M, Mgh,) inf. n. إِرْمَآءٌ, (Mgh,) also signifies It (a thing, Mgh) exceeded. (M, Mgh.) You say, ارمى عَلَيْهِ It (anything) exceeded it, namely, another thing. (M.) Hátim-Teiyi says, وَأَسْمَرَ خَطِّيًّا كَأَنَّ كُعُوبَهُ نَوَى القَسْبِ قَدْ أَرْمَى ذِرَاعًا عَلَى العَشْرِ [And a tawny spear of El-Khatt, as though its knots, or joints, were hard date-stones; one that exceeded a cubit over the ten]: (T, S:) i. e., قَدْ زَادَ عَلَيْهَا. (T.) And hence, (T,) you say, ارمى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ, i. e. He exceeded [the age of fifty]; (Az, A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K;) [like اربى;] as also ↓ رَمَى; (Az, T, S, M, K;) [for] رَمْىٌ signifies the exceeding in age: and one says also أَرْمَأَ and رَمَأَ in the same sense. (IAar, T.) and ارمى فُلَانٌ signifies the same as أَرْبَى [meaning Such a one took usury or the like]. (S.) See also رَمَآءٌ, below. You say also, سَابَّهُ فَأَرْمَى عَلَيْهِ, i. e. [He reciprocated reviling, or vilifying, with him, and] he exceeded him. (S.) 5 ترمّى He shot, or cast, at the butts, and at the trunks of trees. (ISk, T, S, M.) 6 تَرَامَيْنَا and ↓ اِرْتَمَيْنَا [We cast, or shot, (generally the latter,) one with another, or one at another; mostly meaning in competition, or contention; i. e. we competed, or contended, together in throwing, or shooting]: (S, K:) and ترامى القَوْمُ بِالسِّهَامِ and ↓ ارتموا The people, or party, shot arrows, [one with another, or] one at another. (T.) b2: [Hence,] ترامت بِهِ البِلَادُ (tropical:) The countries cast him forth, or expelled him; (M, K, TA;) [as though they bandied him, one to another;] as also ↓ ارتمت, (so in a copy of the M, [which I think correct,]) or ↓ ارمت. (K.) b3: And ترامى السَّحَابُ (assumed tropical:) The clouds became drawn, or joined, together, (M, K, TA,) [as though thrown, one at another,] and heaped, or piled, up; (TA;) as also ↓ رَمَى. (M, TA.) b4: And ترامى أَمْرُهُ إِلَى

الظَّفَرِ; or إِلَى الخِذْلَانِ; i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His affair, or case,] came eventually [to the attainment of what was desired, or sought; or to abandonment by God]. (T, K, TA.) Hence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., of Zeyd Ibn-Háritheh, سُبِىَ فِى الجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَتَرَامَى الأَمْرُ أَنْ صَارَلِخَدِيجَةَ, (T, TA,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [He was made a captive in the Time of Ignorance, and the case] came eventually, and led, [to his becoming the property of Khadeejeh, (إِلَى being understood before أَنْ صَارَ,)] as though the decrees [of God] cast him thereto. (IAth, TA.) One says also, ترامى الأَمْرُ, meaning تَرَاخَى [i. e. (assumed tropical:) The affair was sluggish, or backward]: (K:) [or] one says of a [purulent swelling such as is termed]

حِيْن, (T,) or of a wound, (S,) ترامى إِلَى فَسَادٍ, (T,) or الى الفَسَادِ, (S,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) It was in a sluggish, or backward, state, (تَرَاخَى,) and became putrid and corrupt. (T.)

(MA.) b5: ترامت سَفْرَتُهُ (assumed tropical:) His journey was, or became, distant, or far-extending. (Har p. 34.) b6: تراماهُ الشَّبَابُ Youthfulness, or youthful vigour, attained its full term [in him]. (Skr, M.) 8 ارتمى It was, or became, thrown, cast, or flung. (S, K, TA.) It fell to the ground: so in the saying, ارتمى الحِمْلُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ [The load fell to the ground, or it may mean was thrown down, from the back of the camel]. (T.) b2: Also He shot, or shot at, an animal, or animals, of the chase. (T, S, M.) b3: See also 6, in three places.

رَمْىٌ [originally an inf. n.]: see رَمِىٌّ.

رِمًى The sound of a stone (T, K) thrown at a boy (so accord. to a copy of the T) or thrown by a boy; (K;) on the authority of IAar. (T.) A2: رِمًا [thus written in the M]: see رَمَآءٌ.

رَمْيَةٌ A single throw, or cast, or fling: and a single shot: (Mgh, Msb, TA:) pl. رَمَيَاتٌ. (Msb, TA.) رُبَّ رَمْيَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ رَامٍ [Many a hitting shot, or scarce any hitting shot, is there without a skilled shooter] is a prov. [applied to the case of an unexpected success obtained by an inexperienced person;] meaning many a [hitting] shot, or scarce any [hitting] shot, originates from a shooter that [usually] misses. (Meyd) رَمَآءٌ, (S, IAth, K, in a copy of the T and in a copy of the S without any vowel-sign,) with fet-h and medd, (IAth, and so in a copy of the S, in which it is added that it is said by Ks to be with medd,) like سَمَآءٌ; (K;) or ↓ رِمَآءٌ; (Mgh, and so in a copy of the T;) or ↓ رِمًا, said by Lh to be formed by substitution [of م for ب, as is shown by what follows]; (M;) An excess, or an addition; i. e., (A 'Obeyd, T, Mgh,) i. q. رِبًا, (A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K,) or رِبًوا, (Mgh, and thus written in some copies of the S and K, or in most of the copies of the K, [meaning usury, and the like,]) or an excess, or addition, over what is lawful. (T, IAth.) Hence the trad. of 'Omar, لَا تَبِيعُوا, (A 'Obeyd, T,) or he said لَا تَشْتَرُوا, (S,) الذَّهَبَ بِالفِضَّةِ إِلَّا يَدًا بِيَدٍ هَا وَهَا, [or هَأْ وَهَأْ, (see art. هوأ,)] or هَآء وَهَآء, [i. e. هَآءَ وَهَآءَ,] (accord. to different copies of the T and S,) adding, (T, S,) إِنِّى أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمُ الرمآءَ; (T, S, Mgh;) [i. e. Exchange not ye gold for silver, except it be done hand with hand, meaning, except there be no delay between the giving and receiving, take and take: verily I fear for you the practice of usury;] or he said, إِلَّا هَآءَ وَهَآءِ, meaning, except [by saying] take and give: (Az, TA in باب الالف الليّنة:) and, as some relate it, he said, انّى اخاف عليكم ↓ الإرْمَآءَ; [which means the same;] using the inf. n. (T, Mgh.) رِمَآءٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

رَمِىٌّ, applied to the male of the goat-kind, or mountain-goat, or of the gazelle, [and any male animal of the chase,] and likewise, without ة, to the female, i. q. ↓ مَرْمِىٌّ [i. e. Thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot]: but when they do not distinguish a male from a female, the word applied to the male and to the female is [↓ رَمِيَّةٌ,] with ة [added لِلنَّقْلِ, i. e. to transfer it from the category of epithets to that of substantives]: or, accord. to Lh, رَمِىٌّ and ↓ رَمِيَّةٌ are both applied, as epithets, to the female; but the former is the more approved: the pl. of the former [and of the latter also] is رَمَايَا. (M, TA.) A2: Also, (M,) accord. to As, i. q. سَقِىٌّ, i. e., (T, S,) A cloud of which the rain-drops are large, and vehement in their fall, (T, S, M, K, *) of the clouds of the hot season and of the autumn: (S:) or, (M, K,) accord. to Lth, (T,) small portions of clouds, (T, M, K,) of the [apparent] size of the hand, or somewhat larger; but the approved explanation is that given by As: (T:) and ↓ رَمْىٌ is a dial. var. thereof: (TA:) the pl. is أَرْمِيَةٌ, (T, S, M, K,) like as that of سَقِىٌّ is أَسْقِيَةٌ, (S,) and أَرْمآءٌ, (Lth, T, M, K,) [each, properly, a pl. of pauc.,] and رَمَايَا. (M, K.) رَمِيَّةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

صَنْعَاءُ:
منسوبة إلى جودة الصنعة في ذاتها، كقولهم:
امرأة حسناء وعجزاء وشهلاء، والنسبة إليها صنعانيّ
على غير قياس كالنسبة إلى بهراء بهراني، وصنعاء:
موضعان أحدهما باليمن، وهي العظمى، وأخرى قرية بالغوطة من دمشق، ونذكر أوّلا اليمانية ثمّ نذكر الدمشقية ونفرق بين من نسب إلى هذه وهذه، فأما اليمانية فقال أبو القاسم الزجاجي: كان اسم صنعاء في القديم أزال، قال ذلك الكلبي والشّرقي وعبد المنعم، فلمّا وافتها الحبشة قالوا نعم نعم فسمّي الجبل نعم أي انظر، فلمّا رأوا مدينتها وجدوها مبنية بالحجارة حصينة فقالوا هذه صنعة ومعناه حصينة فسمّيت صنعاء بذلك، وبين صنعاء وعدن ثمانية وستون ميلا، وصنعاء قصبة اليمن وأحسن بلادها، تشبّه بدمشق لكثرة فواكهها وتدفق مياهها فيما قيل، وقيل:
سميت بصنعاء بن أزال بن يقطن بن عابر بن شالخ وهو الذي بناها، وطول صنعاء ثلاث وستون درجة وثلاثون دقيقة، وعرضها أربع عشرة درجة وثلاثون دقيقة، وهي في الإقليم الأوّل، وقيل: كانت تسمى أزال، قال ابن الكلبي: إنما سميت صنعاء لأن وهرز لما دخلها قال: صنعة صنعة، بريد أن الحبشة أحكمت صنعتها، قال: وإنّما سميت باسم الذي بناها وهو صنعاء بن أزال بن عبير بن عابر بن شالخ فكانت تعرف بأزال وتارة بصنعاء، وقال مجاهد في قوله تعالى:
غُدُوُّها شَهْرٌ وَرَواحُها شَهْرٌ 34: 12، كان سليمان، عليه السلام، يستعمل الشياطين بإصطخر ويعرضهم بالريّ ويعطيهم أجورهم بصنعاء فشكوا أمرهم إلى إبليس فقال: عظم البلاء وقد حضر الفرج، وقال عمارة بن أبي الحسن:
ليس بجميع اليمن أكبر ولا أكثر مرافق وأهلا من صنعاء، وهو بلد في خط الاستواء، وهي من الاعتدال من الهواء بحيث لا يتحوّل الإنسان من مكان طول عمره صيفا ولا شتاء، وتتقارب بها ساعات الشتاء والصيف، وبها بناء عظيم قد خرب، وهو تلّ عظيم عال وقد عرف بغمدان، وقال معمر: وطئت أرضين كثيرة شاما وخراسان وعراقا فما رأيت مدينة أطيب من صنعاء، وقال محمد بن أحمد الهمداني الفقيه:
صنعاء طيبة الهواء كثيرة الماء يقال إن أهلها يشتون مرتين ويصيّفون مرّتين وكذلك أهل فران ومأرب وعدن والشحر، وإذا صارت الشمس إلى أوّل الحمل صار الحر عندهم مفرطا، فإذا صارت إلى أوّل السرطان وزالت عن سمت رؤوسهم أربعة وعشرين شتوا ثمّ تعود الشمس إليهم إذا صارت إلى أول الميزان فيصيّفون ثانية ويشتدّ الحرّ عليهم، فإذا زالت إلى الجنوب وصارت إلى الجدي شتوا ثانية غير أن شتاءهم قريب من صيفهم، قال: وكان في ظفار وهي صنعاء، كذا قال، وظفار مشهورة على ساحل البحر، ولعلّ هذه كانت تسمّى بذلك، قريب من القصور قصر زيدان، وهو قصر المملكة، وقصر شوحطان، وقصر كوكبان، وهو جبل قريب منها، وقد ذكر في موضعه، قال:
وكان لمدينة صنعاء تسعة أبواب، وكان لا يدخلها غريب إلّا بإذن، كانوا يجدون في كتبهم أنها تخرب من رجل يدخل من باب لها يسمّى باب حقل فكانت عليه أجراس متى حركت سمع صوت الأجراس من الأماكن البعيدة، وكانت مرتبة صاحب الملك على ميل من بابها، وكان من دونه إلى الباب حاجبان بين كلّ واحد إلى صاحبه رمية سهم، وكانت له سلسلة من ذهب من عند الحاجب إلى باب المدينة ممدودة وفيها أجراس متى قدم على الملك شريف أو رسول أو بريد من بعض العمال حركت السلسلة فيعلم الملك بذلك فيرى رأيه، وقال أبو محمد اليزيدي يمدح صنعاء ويفضلها على غيرها وكان قد دخلها:
قلت ونفسي جمّ تأوّهها ... تصبو إلى أهلها وأندهها:
سقيا لصنعاء! لا أرى بلدا ... أوطنه الموطنون يشبهها
خفضا ولينا، ولا كبهجتها، ... أرغد أرض عيشا وأرفهها
يعرف صنعاء من أقام بها ... أعذى بلاد عذا وأنزهها
ما أنس لا أنس ما فجعت به ... يوما بنا إبلها تجهجهها
فصاح بالبين ساجع لغب، ... وجاهرت بالشّمات أمّهها
ضعضع ركني فراق ناعمة ... في ناعمات تصان أوجهها
كأنّها فضّة مموّهة ... أحسن تمويهها مموّهها
نفس بين الأحباب والهة، ... وشحط ألّافها يولّهها
نفى عزائي وهاج لي حزني، ... والنّفس طوع الهوى ينفهها
كم دون صنعاء سملقا جددا ... ينبو بمن رامها معوّهها
أرض بها العين والظّباء معا ... فوضى مطافيلها وولّهها
كيف بها، كيف وهي نازحة، ... مشبّه تيهها ومهمهها
وبنى أبرهة بصنعاء القليس وأخذ الناس بالحجّ إليه وبناه بناء عجيبا، وقد ذكر في موضعه، وقدم يزيد ابن عمرو بن الصّعق صنعاء ورأى أهلها وما فيها من العجائب، فلمّا انصرف قيل له: كيف رأيت صنعاء؟ فقال:
ومن ير صنعاء الجنود وأهلها، ... وجنود حمير قاطنين وحميرا
يعلم بأنّ العيش قسّم بينهم، ... حلبوا الصفاء فأنهلوا ما كدّرا
ويرى مقامات عليها بهجة ... يأرجن هنديّا ومسكا أذفرا
ويروى عن مكحول أنّه قال: أربع من مدن الجنة:
مكّة والمدينة وإيلياء ودمشق، وأربع من مدن النار:
أنطاكية والطوانة وقسطنطينية وصنعاء، وقال أبو عبيد: وكان زياد بن منقذ العدوي نزل صنعاء فاستوبأها وكان منزله بنجد في وادي أشيّ فقال يتشوق بلاده:
لا حبّذا أنت يا صنعاء من بلد، ... ولا شعوب هوى مني ولا نقم
وحبّذا حين تمسي الرّيح باردة ... وادي أشيّ وفتيان به هضم
مخدّمون كرام في مجالسهم، ... وفي الرّحال إذا صحبتهم خدم
الواسعون إذا ما جرّ غيرهم ... على العشيرة، والكافون ما جرموا
ليست عليهم إذا يغدون أردية ... إلّا جياد قسيّ النّبع واللّجم
لم ألق بعدهم قوما فأخبرهم ... إلّا يزيدهم حبّا إليّ هم
يا ليت شعري عن جنبي مكشّحة ... وحيث تبنى من الحنّاءة الأطم
عن الأشاءة هل زالت مخارمها، ... وهل تغيّر من آرامها إرم؟
يا ليت شعري! متى أغدو تعارضني ... جرداء سابحة أم سابح قدم
نحو الأميلح أو سمنان مبتكرا ... في فتية فيهم المرّار والحكم
من غير عدم ولكن من تبذّلهم ... للصّيد حين يصيح الصائد اللّحم
فيفزعون إلى جرد مسحّجة ... أفنى دوابرهنّ الركض والأكم
يرضخن صمّ الحصى في كل هاجرة ... كما تطايح عن مرضاخه العجم
وهي أكثر من هذا وإنّما ذكرت ما ذكرت منها وإن لم يكن فيها من ذكر صنعاء إلّا البيت الأوّل استحسانا لها وإيفاء بما شرط من ذكر ما يتضمن الحنين إلى الوطن ولكونها اشتملت على ذكر عدة أماكن، وقد نسب إلى ذلك خلق وأجلّهم قدرا في العلم عبد الرزاق ابن همّام بن نافع أبو بكر الحميري مولاهم الصنعاني أحد الثقات المشهورين، قال أبو القاسم: قدم الشام تاجرا وسمع بها الأوزاعي وسعيد بن عبد العزيز وسعيد بن بشير ومحمد بن راشد المكحولي وإسماعيل ابن عباس وثور بن يزيد الكلاعي وحدّث عنهم وعن معمّر بن راشد وابن جريج وعبد الله وعبيد الله ابني عمرو بن مالك بن أنس وداود بن قيس الفرّاء وأبي بكر بن عبد الله بن أبي سبرة وعبد الله بن زياد بن سمعان وإبراهيم بن محمد بن أبي يحيى وأبي معشر نجيح السندي وعبد الرحمن بن زيد بن أسلم ومعتمر بن سليمان التيمي وأبي بكر بن عباس وسفيان الثوري وهشيم بن بشير الواسطي وسفيان بن عيينة وعبد العزيز ابن أبي زياد وغير هؤلاء، روى عنه سفيان بن عيينة، وهو من شيوخه، ومعتمر بن سليمان، وهو من شيوخه، وأبو أسامة حمّاد بن أسامة وأحمد بن حنبل ويحيى ابن معين وإسحاق بن راهويه ومحمد بن يحيى الذّهلي وعليّ بن المديني وأحمد بن منصور الرّمادي والشاذكوني وجماعة وافرة وآخرهم إسحاق بن إبراهيم الدبري، وكان مولده سنة 126، ولزم معمّرا ثمانين سنة، قال أحمد بن حنبل: أتينا عبد الرزاق قبل المائتين وهو صحيح البصر، ومن سمع منه بعد ما ذهب بصره فهو ضعيف الإسناد، وكان أحمد يقول: إذا اختلف أصحاب معمر فالحديث لعبد الرزاق، وقال أبو خيثمة زهير بن حرب: لما خرجت أنا وأحمد بن حنبل ويحيى بن معين نريد عبد الرزاق فلمّا وصلنا مكّة كتب أهل الحديث إلى صنعاء إلى عبد الرزاق:
قد أتاك حفّاظ الحديث فانظر كيف تكون أحمد ابن حنبل ويحيى بن معين وأبو خيثمة زهير بن حرب، فلمّا قدمنا صنعاء أغلق الباب عبد الرزاق ولم يفتحه لأحد إلّا لأحمد بن حنبل لديانته، فدخل فحدّثه بخمسة وعشرين حديثا ويحيى بن معين بين الناس جالس، فلمّا خرج قال يحيى لأحمد: أرني ما حلّ لك، فنظر فيها فخطّأ الشيخ في ثمانية عشر حديثا، فلمّا سمع أحمد الخطأ رجع فأراه مواضع الخطإ فأخرج عبد الرزاق الأصول فوجده كما قال يحيى ففتح الباب وقال: ادخلوا، وأخذ مفتاح بيته وسلّمه إلى أحمد ابن حنبل وقال: هذا البيت ما دخلته يد غيري منذ ثمانين سنة أسلّمه إليكم بأمانة الله على أنّكم لا تقولون ما لم أقل ولا تدخلون عليّ حديثا من حديث غيري، ثمّ أومأ إلى أحمد وقال: أنت أمين الدين عليك وعليهم، قال: فأقاموا عنده حولا، أنبأنا الحسن بن رستوا أنبأنا أبو عبد الرحمن النسائي قال: عبد الرزاق بن همّام فيه نظر لمن كتب عنه بآخره، وفي رواية أخرى: عبد الرزاق بن همام لمن
يكتب عنه من كتاب ففيه نظر ومن كتب عنه بآخره حاد عنه بأحاديث مناكير، حدّثنا عبد الله بن أحمد بن حنبل قال: سألت أبي قلت عبد الرزاق كان يتشيّع ويفرط في التشيّع؟ فقال: أما أنا فلم أسمع منه في هذا شيئا ولكن كان رجلا تعجبه الأخبار، أنبأنا مخلد الشعيري قال: كنّا عند عبد الرزاق فذكر رجل معاوية فقال: لا تقذّروا مجلسنا بذكر ولد أبي سفيان! أنبأنا عليّ بن عبد الله بن المبارك الصنعاني يقول: كان زيد بن المبارك لزم عبد الرزاق فأكثر عنه ثمّ حرق كتبه ولزم محمد بن ثور فقيل له في ذلك فقال: كنّا عند عبد الرزاق فحدثنا بحديث معمر عن الزهري عن مالك بن أوس بن الحدثان الطويل، فلمّا قرأ قول عمر لعليّ والعباس: فجئت أنت تطلب ميراثك من ابن أخيك ويطلب هذا ميراث امرأته من أبيها، قال: ألّا يقول الأنوك [1] رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم؟ قال زيد بن المبارك:
فقمت فلم أعد إليه ولا أروي عنه حديثا أبدا، أنبأنا أحمد بن زهير بن حرب قال: سمعت يحيى بن معين يقول وبلغه أن أحمد بن حنبل يتكلم في عبد الله ابن موسى بسبب التشيّع قال يحيى: والله الذي لا إله إلّا هو عالم الغيب والشهادة لقد سمعت من عبد الرزاق في هذا المعنى أكثر ممّا يقول عبد الله بن موسى لكن خاف أحمد أن تذهب رحلته، أنبأنا سلمة بن شبيب قال: سمعت عبد الرزاق يقول والله ما انشرح صدري قطّ أن أفضّل عليّا على أبي بكر وعمر، رحم الله أبا بكر ورحم عمر ورحم عثمان ورحم عليّا ومن لم يحبّهم فما هو بمسلم فإن أوثق عملي حبّي إياهم، رضوان الله تعالى عليهم أجمعين. ومات عبد الرزّاق في شوّال سنة 211، ومولده سنة 126.
وصنعاء أيضا: قرية على باب دمشق دون المزّة مقابل مسجد خاتون خربت، وهي اليوم مزرعة وبساتين، قال أبو الفضل: صنعاء قرية على باب دمشق خربت الآن، وقد نسب إليها جماعة من المحدثين، قال عبد الرحمن بن أبي حاتم في كتابه: أبو الأشعث شراحيل بن أدّة، ويقال شراحيل بن شراحيل الصنعاني، من صنعاء دمشق، ومنهم أبو المقدام الصنعاني، روى عن مجاهد وعنبسة، روى عنه الأوزاعي والهيثم بن حميد وإسماعيل بن عياش، قال الأوزاعي: ما أصيب أهل دمشق بأعظم من مصيبتهم بالمطعم بن المقدام الصنعاني وبأبي مزيد الغنوي وبأبي إبراهيم بن حدّاد العذري، فأضافه إلى أهل دمشق والحاكم أبو عبد الله نسبه إلى اليمن، وقال أبو بكر أحمد بن عليّ الحافظ الأصبهاني في كتابه الذي جمع فيه رجال مسلم بن الحجاج: حفص بن ميسرة الصنعاني صنعاء الشام كنيته أبو عمر، زيد بن أسلم وموسى بن عقبة وغيرهما، روى عنه عبد الله بن وهب وسويد بن سعيد وغيرهما، وأبو بكر الأصبهاني أخذ هذه النسبة من كتاب الكنى لأبي أحمد النيسابوري فإنّه قال: أبو عمر حفص بن ميسرة الصنعاني صنعاء الشام، وقال أبو نصر الكلاباذي في جمعه رجال كتاب أبي عبد الله البخاري:
هو من صنعاء اليمن نزل الشام، والقول عندنا قول الكلاباذي بدليل ما أخبرنا أبو عمر عبد الوهاب بن الإمام أبي عبد الله بن مندة، أنبأنا أبو تمام إجازة قال: أخبرنا أبو سعيد بن يونس بن عبد الأعلى في كتاب المصريين قال: حفص بن ميسرة الصنعاني يكنى أبا عمر من أهل صنعاء، قدم مصر وكتب عنه، وحدث عنه عبد الله بن وهب وزمعة بن عرابي ابن معاوية بن أبي عرابي وحسّان بن غالب، وخرج هكذا في الأصل.
عن مصر إلى الشام فكانت وفاته سنة 181، وقال أبو سعيد: حدثني أبي عن جدي أنبأنا ابن وهب حدثني حفص بن ميسرة قال: رأيت على باب وهب بن منبّه مكتوبا: ما شاء الله لا قوّة إلّا بالله، فدلّ جميع ذلك على أنّه كان من صنعاء اليمن، قدم مصر ثمّ خرج منها إلى الشام، وحنش بن عبد الله الصنعاني صنعاء الشام، سمع فضالة بن عبيد، روى عنه خالد ابن معدان والحلّاج أبو كبير وعامر بن يحيى المعافري، قال ابن الفرضي: عداده في المصريين وهو تابعي كبير ثقة ودخل الأندلس، قال: وهو حنش بن عبد الله بن عمرو بن حنظلة بن فهد بن قينان بن ثعلبة ابن عبد الله بن ثامر السّبائي وهو الصنعاني يكنى أبا رشيد، كان مع عليّ بن أبي طالب، رضي الله عنه، بالكوفة وقدم مصر بعد قتل عليّ وغزا المغرب مع رويفع بن ثابت والأندلس مع موسى بن نصير، وكان فيمن ثار مع ابن الزبير على عبد الملك بن مروان فأتي به عبد الملك في وثاق فعفا عنه، حدث عنه الحارث بن يزيد وسلامان بن عامر بن يحيى وسيّار ابن عبد الرحمن وأبو مرزوق مولى نجيب وغيرهم، ومات بإفريقية في الإسلام وولده بمصر، وقيل إنّه مات بمصر، وقيل بسرقسطة وقبره بها معروف، كل ذلك عن ابن الفرضي، ويزيد بن ربيعة أبو كامل الرحبي الصنعاني صنعاء دمشق، هكذا ذكره البخاري في التاريخ العساكري، روى عن أبي أسماء الرحبي وأبي الأشعث الصنعاني وربيعة بن يزيد وذكر جماعة أخرى، قال أبو حاتم: يزيد بن ربيعة الصنعاني ليس بثقة دمشقيّ، قال جماعة من أصحاب الحديث:
ليس يعرف بدمشق كذّاب إلّا رجلين: الحكم بن عبد الله الأبلّي ويزيد بن ربيعة، قال أبو موسى الأصبهاني محمد بن عمر: كان الحاكم أبو عبد الله لا يعرف إلّا صنعاء اليمن فإنّه ذكر فيمن يجمع حديثهم من أهل البلدان، قال: ومن أهل اليمن أبو الأشعث الصنعاني والمطعم بن المقدام وراشد بن داود وحنش ابن عبد الله الصنعانيون وهؤلاء كلّهم شاميون لا يمانيون، قال أبو عبد الله الحميدي: حنش بن علي الصنعاني الذي يروي عن فضالة بن عبيد من صنعاء الشام قرية بباب دمشق، وأبو الأشعث الصنعاني منها أيضا، قاله عليّ بن المديني، قال الحميدي: ولهذا ظنّ قوم أن حنش بن عبد الله من الشام لا من صنعاء اليمن ولا أعرف حنش بن عليّ والذي يروي عن فضالة هو ابن عبد الله فهذا بيان حسن لطالب هذا العلم، وقال ابن عساكر: يحيى بن مبارك الصنعاني من صنعاء دمشق، روى عن كثير بن سليم وشريك بن عبد الله النخعي وأبي داود شبل بن عبّاد ومالك بن أنس، روى عنه إسماعيل بن عياض الأرسوفي وخطّاب بن عبد السلام الأرسوفي وعبد العظيم بن إبراهيم وإسماعيل بن موسى بن ذرّ العسقلاني نزيل أرسوف، ويزيد بن السمط أبو السمط الصنعاني الفقيه، روى عن الأوزاعي والنّعمان بن المنذر ومطعم بن المقدام وذكر جماعة وذكر بإسناده أن عالمي أهل الجند بعد الأوزاعي يزيد بن السمط ويزيد ابن يوسف، وكان ثقة زاهدا ورعا من صنعاء دمشق، ويزيد بن مرثد أبو عثمان الهمداني المدعي حي من همدان من أهل صنعاء دمشق، روى عن عبد الرحمن ابن عوف ومعاذ بن جبل وأبي الدرداء وأبي ذرّ وأبي رهم اجزاب بن أسيد السمعي وأبي صالح الخولاني، روى عنه عبد الرحمن بن يزيد بن عامر وخالد بن معدان والوضين بن عطاء، وراشد بن داود أبو المهلّب، ويقال أبو داود الرسمي الصنعاني صنعاء دمشق، روى عن أبي الأشعث شراحيل بن أدّة وأبي
عثمان شراحيل بن مرثد الصنعانيين وأبي أسماء الرحبي ونافع ويعلى بن أبي شدّاد بن أوس وغيرهم، روى عنه يحيى بن حمزة وعبد الله بن محمد الصنعاني وعبد الرحمن بن سليمان بن أبي الجون وغيرهم، وسئل عنه يحيى بن معين فقال: ليس به بأس ثقة، قال يحيى:
وصنعاء هذه قرية من قرى الشام ليست صنعاء اليمن.

ققب

قَيْقَبٌ and ↓ قَيْقَبَانٌ A certain wood of which horses' saddles are made; (IDrd, S, O, K;) called in Pers\. آزَاد دِرَخْت. (IDrd, S, O.) [See also قَبْقَبٌ, in art. قب.] b2: And, both words, A horse's saddle itself. (IDrd, O, K.) [See, again, قَبْقَبٌ.] b3: And the former word signifies A strap, or thong, that surrounds the pommel and troussequin of a horse's saddle: (O, K:) or, as used by post-classical authors, a strap, or thong, that is put across behind the troussequin of a saddle.

قَيْقَبَانٌ: see the first paragraph, above.

قل See Supplement قلب1 قَلَبَهُ, (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ (Msb, K.) inf. n. قَلْبٌ, (Msb,) He altered, or changed, its, or his, mode, or manner, of being; (A, Mgh, Msb, * K;) and ↓ قلّبهُ signifies the same, (K,) or is like قَلَبَهُ in the sense expl. above and in other senses but denotes intensiveness and muchness; (Msb;) and ↓ اقلبهُ also signifies the same as قَلَبَهُ in the sense expl. above, (K,) on the authority of Lh, but is of weak authority. (TA.) Hence, (Mgh,) He inverted it; turned it upside-down; turned it so as to make its upper most part its undermost; (S, * A, * Mgh, Msb;) namely, a thing; (S;) for instance, a [garment of the kind called] رِدَآء: (A, * Mgh:) and ↓ قلّبهُ has a similar meaning, but [properly] denotes intensiveness and muchness. (Msb. See two exs. of the latter verb voce قَلَبَةٌ.) And, (A, K,) like ↓ قلّبهُ, [except that the latter properly denotes intensiveness and muchness,] (K,) it signifies حَوَّلَهُ ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ (A, K) [He turned it over, or upsidedown as meaning so that the upper side became the under side; lit. back for belly; accord. to the TA, meaning back upon belly (ظَهْرًا عَلَى بَطْنٍ); but this is hardly conceivable; whereas the former explanation is obviously right in another case: (see 5:) and another meaning of قَلَبَهُ and ↓ قُلبهُ, i. e. he turned it inside-out, is indicated in the TA by its being added, so that he knew what was in it]. b2: See an ex. voce قَلَابِ. One says, قَلَبَ كَلَامًا [meaning He altered, or changed, the order of the words of a sentence or the like, by inversion, or by any transposition]. (TA.) [And in like manner, قَلَبَ كَلِمَةً He altered, or changed, the order of the letters of a word, by inversion, or by any transposition.] Es-Sakháwee says, in the Expos. of the Mufassal, that when they transpose [the letters of a word], they do not assign to the [transformed] derivative an inf. n., lest it should be confounded with the original, using only the inf. n. of the original that it may be an evidence of the originality [of the application of the latter to denote the signification common to both]: thus they say يَئِسَ, inf. n. يَأْسٌ; and أَيِسَ is مِنْهُ ↓ مَقْلُوبٌ [i. e. formed by transposition, or metathesis, from it], and has no inf. n.: when the two inf. ns. exist, the grammarians decide that each of the two verbs is [to be regarded as] an original, and that neither is مقلوب from the other, as in the case of جَذَبَ and جَبَذَ: but the lexicologists [in general] assert that all such are [of the class termed]

مقلوب. (Mz, close of the 33rd نوع.) [and قَلَبَ likewise signifies He changed, or converted, a letter into another letter; the verb in this sense being doubly trans.: for ex., one says, قَلَبَ الوَاوَ يَآءً He changed, or converted, the و into ى.] b3: And [hence] one says, قَلَبَهُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ (assumed tropical:) He turned him [from his manner, way, or course, of acting, or proceeding, &c.]: and Lh has mentioned ↓ اقلبهُ [in the same sense], but as being disapproved. (TA.) And قَلَبَ الصِّبْيَانَ (tropical:) He (the teacher) turned away [or dismissed] the boys to their dwellings: (Th, A, TA:) or sent them [away], and returned them, to their abodes: and Lh has mentioned ↓ اقلبهم as a dial. var. of weak authority, saying that the former verb is that which is used by the Arabs in this and other [similar] cases. (TA.) And قَلَبْتُ القَوْمَ (assumed tropical:) I turned away [or dismissed] the people, or party; (Th, S, O;) like as you say صَرَفْتُ الصِّبْيَانَ. (Th, S.) And قَلَبَ اللّٰهُ فُلَانًا إِلَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) [God translated such a one unto Himself, by death: meaning God took his soul]; as also ↓ اقلبه; (K, TA;) whence the saying of Anooshirwán, اللّٰهُ مُقْلَبَ أَوْلِيَائِهِ ↓ أَقْلَبَكُمُ (assumed tropical:) [May God translate you with the translating of his favourites (مقلب being here an inf. n.), meaning, as He translates his favourites]. (TA.) b4: And قَلَبَ عَيْنَهُ, and حِمْلَاقَهُ, (TA,) or حِمْلَاقَ عَيْنِهِ, (A,) [He turned about, or rolled, his eye, and therefore the parts of his eye that are occasionally covered by the eyelids,] on the occasion of anger, (A, TA,) and of threatening. (TA.) b5: قَلَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. قَلْبٌ; and ↓ اقلب likewise, but this is of weak authority, mentioned by Lh; signify also He turned over bread, and the like, when the upper part thereof was thoroughly baked, in order that the under side might become so. (TA.) And you say, قَلَبْتُ الإِنَآءَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ [I turned over the vessel upon its head]. (Msb, in explanation of كَبَبْتُ الإِنَآءَ.) And قَلَبْتُ الأَرْضَ لِلزِّرَاعَةِ [I turned over the earth for sowing]: and ↓ قَلَّبْتُهَا, also, I did so much.] (Msb.) And يُقْلَبُ التُّرَابُ بِالحَفْرِ [The earth is turned over in digging]: whence قَلَبْتُ قَلِيبًا means I dug a well. (A.) b6: And [hence also] one says, قَلَبْتُ الشَّىْءَ لِلْاِبْتِيَاعِ I turned over the thing, or (assumed tropical:) I examined the several parts, or portions, of the thing, (تَصَفَّحْتُهُ,) [or I turned over the thing for the purpose of examining it,] with a view to purchasing, and saw its outer part or side, and its inner part or side: and ↓ قَلَّبْتُهُ, also, I did so much. (Msb.) And قَلَبَ السِّلْعَةَ (tropical:) He (a trafficker) examined the commodity, and scrutinized its condition: and ↓ قَلَّبَهَا, also, he did so [much]. (A.) And قَلَبَ الدَّابَّةَ and الغُلَامَ (tropical:) [He examined, &c., the beast, or horse, or the like, and the youth, or young man, or male slave]: (A:) and قَلَبَ المَمْلُوكَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. قَلْبٌ, (tropical:) he uncovered and examined the male slave, to look at [or to see] his defects, on the occasion of purchasing. (O, TA.) And قَلَبْتُ الأَمْرَ ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ (assumed tropical:) I considered [or turned over in my mind] what might be the issues, or results, of the affair, or case: and ↓ قَلَّبْتُهُ, also, I did so much. (Msb.) A2: قَلَبٌ signifies اِنْقِلابٌ, (S, A, O, K, TA,) meaning A turning outward, (TK,) and being flabby, (TA,) of the lip, (S, A, O, K,) or of the upper lip, (TA,) of a man: (S, A, O, K, TA:) it is the inf. n. of قَلِبَت said of the lip (الشَّفَةُ); (TA;) [and also, accord. to the TK, of قَلِبَ said of a man as meaning His lip had what is termed قَلَبٌ:] and hence ↓ أَقْلَبُ as an epithet applied to a man; and [its fem.] ↓ قَلْبَآء as an epithet applied to a lip. (S, A, O, K, TA.) A3: قَلَبَهُ, (S, A, O, K,) aor. ـُ (Lh, K) and قَلِبَ, (K,) He (a man, S, O) hit his heart. (S, A, O, K.) And It (a disease) affected, or attacked, his heart. (A.) and قُلِبَ He (a man) was affected, or attacked, by a pain in his heart, (Fr, A, * TA,) from which one hardly, or nowise, becomes free. (Fr, TA.) and قُلِبَ said of a camel, (As, S, O, K, TA,) inf. n. قُلَابٌ, (As, S, TA,) He was attacked by the disease called قُلَاب expl. below: (As, S, O, K, TA:) or he was attacked suddenly by the [pestilence termed] غُدَّة, and died in consequence. (As, TA.) b2: [Hence,] قَلَبَ النَّخْلَةَ (tropical:) He plucked out the قَلْب, or قُلْب, meaning heart, of the palm-tree. (S, A, O, K.) b3: And قَلَبَتِ البُسْرَةُ (assumed tropical:) The unripe date became red. (S, O, K.) 2 قَلَّبَ see 1, first quarter, in four places. Yousay, قَلَّبْتُهُ بِيَدِى [I turned it over and over with my hand], inf. n. تَقْلِيبٌ. (S.) [And hence several other significations mentioned above.] See, again, 1, latter half, in four places. b2: فَأَصْبَحَ يُقَلِّبُ كَفَّيْهِ, (A, O,) in the Kur [xviii. 40], (O,) means فاصبح يقلّب كفّيه ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ [and he began to turn his hands upside-down, or to do so repeatedly,] in grief, or regret: (Bd:) or (tropical:) he became in the state, or condition, of repenting, or grieving: (Ksh, A, O:) for تَقْلِيبُ الكَفَّيْنِ is an action of him who is repenting, or grieving; (Ksh, O:) and therefore metonymically denotes repentance, or grief, like عَضُّ الكَفِّ and السُّقُوطُ فِى اليَدِ. (Ksh.) b3: [تَقْلِيبُ المَالِ لِغَرَضِ الرِّبْحِ occurs in the A, in art. تجر, as an explanation of التِّجَارَةُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) The employing of property, or turning it to use, in various ways, for the purpose of gain.] And you say, قَلَّبْتُهُ فِى الأَمْرِ, meaning صَرَّفْتُهُ [i. e.

(K in art. صرف.) [And قَلَّبَ الفِكَرَ فِى أمّرٍ (assumed tropical:) He turned over and over, or revolved repeatedly, in his mind, thoughts, considerations, or ideas, with a view to the attainment of some object, in relation to an affair.] And قلّب الأُمُورَ, (TA,) inf. n. تَقْلِيبٌ, (S, K, TA,) (tropical:) He investigated, scrutinized, or examined, affairs, [or turned them over and over in his mind, meditating what he should do,] and considered what would be their results.

(Ksh, Bd.) 4 أَقْلَبَ see 1, in six places. [اقلبهُ, said of God, also signifies (assumed tropical:) He made him to return from a journey: see an ex. in the first paragraph of art. صحب. (In the phrase أَقْبِلْنَا بِذِمَّةٍ, expl. in the TA in art. دم as meaning Restore us to our family in safety, أَقْبِلْنَا is a mistranscription for أَقْلِبْنَا.)]

A2: اقلب as intrans., said of bread [and the like], It became fit to be turned over [in order that the other side might become thoroughly baked]. (S, O, K.) b2: And اقلب العِنَبُ The grapes became dry, or tough, externally, (K, TA,) and were therefore turned over, or shifted. (TA.)

(S, O, TA.) تقلّب said of a man's face [&c.] signifies تصرّف [i. e. It turned about, properly meaning much, or in various ways or directions; or it was, or became, turned about, &c.].

قَلْبٌ The heart; syn. فُؤَادٌ: (Lh, T, S, M, O, Msb, K, &c.:) or [accord. to some] it has a more special signification than the latter word: (O, K:) [for] some say that فؤاد signifies the “ appendages of the مَرِىْء [or œsophagus], consisting of the liver and lungs and قَلْب [or heart]: ” (K in art. فأد:) [and, agreeably with this assertion,] it is said that the قلب is a lump of flesh, pertaining to the فؤاد, suspended to the نِيَاط [q. v.]: Az says, I have observed that some of the Arabs call the whole flesh of the قلب, its fat, and its حِجَاب [or septum?], قَلْب and فُؤَاد; and I have not observed them to distinguish between the two [words]; but I do not deny that the [word]

قلب may be [applied by some to] the black clot of blood in its interior: MF mentions that فؤاد is said to signify the “ receptacle,” or “ covering,” of the heart, (وِعَآءُ القَلْبِ, or غِشَاؤُهُ, [i. e. the pericardium,]) or, accord. to some, its “ interior: ” the قَلْب is said to be so called from its تَقَلُّب: [see 5:] the word is of the masc. gender: and the pl. is قُلُوبٌ. (TA.) بَنَاتُ القَلْبِ means (assumed tropical:) The several parts, or portions, [or, perhaps, appertenances,] of the heart. (TA in art. بنى.) [And قَلْبٌ is also used as meaning The stomach, which is often thus termed in the present day: so, for ex., in an explanation of طَنِخ, q. v.] b2: قَلْبُ العَقْرَبِ (also called simply, القَلْبُ, Kzw) is (assumed tropical:) A certain bright star, [the star a in Scorpio,] between two other stars, which is one of the Mansions of the Moon, (S, O,) namely, the Eighteenth Mansion; so called because it is in the heart of Scorpio: (MF:) [it rose aurorally, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, in Central Arabia, together with النَّسْرُ الوَقِعُ (a of Libra) on the 25th of November, O. S.: (see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل:)] the commencement of the period when the cattle breed in the desert is at the time of its [auroral] rising and the [auroral] rising of النسر الواقع; these two stars rising together, in the cold season: the Arabs say, القَلبْ جَآءَ الشِّتَآءُ كَالْكَلْبْ [When the heart of the Scorpion rises, the winter comes like the dog]: and they regard its نَوْء [q. v.] as unlucky; and dislike journeying when the moon is in Scorpio: at its نَوْء [meaning auroral rising], the cold becomes vehement, cold winds blow, and the sap becomes stagnant in the trees: its رَقِيب is الدَّبَرَانُ [q. v.] (Kzw.) There are also three similar appellations of other stars: these are قَلْبُ الأَسَدِ (assumed tropical:) [Cor Leonis, or Regulus, the star a of Leo]: قَلْبُ الثَّوْرِ, an [improper] appellation of الدَّبَرَانُ: and قَلْبُ الحُوتِ, a name of الرِّشَآءُ [q. v.]. (TA.) b3: And القَلْبُ is syn. with الضَّمِيرُ [signifying (assumed tropical:) The heart as meaning the mind or the secret thoughts]. (Msb in art. ضمر.) b4: And (assumed tropical:) The soul. (TA.) b5: And (assumed tropical:) The mind, meaning the intellect, or intelligence. (Fr, S, O, Msb, K.) So in the Kur l. 36: (Fr, S, O, TA:) or it means there endeavour to understand, and consideration. (TA.) Accord. to Fr, you may say, مَا لَكَ قَلْبٌ (assumed tropical:) Thou hast no intellect, or intelligence: (TA:) and مَا قَلْبُكَ مَعَكَ (assumed tropical:) Thine intellect is not present with thee: (O, TA:) and أَيْنَ ذَهَبَ قَلْبُكَ (assumed tropical:) Whither has thine intellect gone? (TA.) [And hence, أَفْعَالُ القُلُوبِ (assumed tropical:) The verbs significant of operations of the mind; as ظَنَّ, and the like.] b6: See also قُلْبٌ. b7: [قَلْبُ الجَيْشِ means (assumed tropical:) The main body of the army; as distinguished from the van and the rear and the two wings: mentioned in the S and K in art. خمس; &c.] b8: And قَلْبٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) The pure, or choice, or best, part of anything. (L, K, * TA.) It is said in a trad. إِنَّ لِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَلْبًا وَقَلْبُ القُرْآنِ يٰس (tropical:) [as though meaning, Verily to everything there is a choice, or best, part; and the choice, or best, part of the Kur-án is Yá-Seen (the Thirty-sixth Chapter)]: (A, O, L, TA:) it is a saying of the Prophet; [and may (perhaps better) be rendered, verily to everything there is a pith; and the pith &c.; from قَلْبٌ, as meaning, like قُلْبٌ, the “ pith ” of the palm-tree; but,] accord. to Lth, it is from what here immediately follows.

سَمَرْقَنْدُ:
بفتح أوّله وثانيه، ويقال لها بالعربيّة سمران: بلد معروف مشهور، قيل: إنّه من أبنية ذي القرنين بما وراء النهر، وهو قصبة الصّغد مبنيّة
على جنوبي وادي الصغد مرتفعة عليه، قال أبو عون:
سمرقند في الإقليم الرابع، طولها تسع وثمانون درجة ونصف، وعرضها ست وثلاثون درجة ونصف، وقال الأزهري: بناها شمر أبو كرب فسميت شمر كنت فأعربت فقيل سمرقند، هكذا تلفظ به العرب في كلامها وأشعارها، وقال يزيد بن مفرّغ يمدح سعيد بن عثمان وكان قد فتحها:
لهفي على الأمر الذي ... كانت عواقبه النّدامه
تركي سعيدا ذا النّدى، ... والبيت ترفعه الدّعامه
فتحت سمرقند له، ... وبنى بعرصتها خيامه
وتبعت عبد بني علا ... ج، تلك أشراط القيامه
وبالبطيحة من أرض كسكر قرية تسمى سمرقند أيضا، ذكره المفجّع في كتاب المنقذ من الإيمان في أخبار ملوك اليمن قال: لما مات ناشر ينعم الملك قام بالملك من بعده شمر بن افريقيس بن أبرهة فجمع جنوده وسار في خمسمائة ألف رجل حتى ورد العراق فأعطاه يشتاسف الطاعة وعلم أن لا طاقة له به لكثرة جنوده وشدّة صولته، فسار من العراق لا يصدّه صادّ إلى بلاد الصين فلمّا صار بالصّغد اجتمع أهل تلك البلاد وتحصّنوا منه بمدينة سمرقند فأحاط بمن فيها من كلّ وجه حتى استنزلهم بغير أمان فقتل منهم مقتلة عظيمة وأمر بالمدينة فهدمت فسميت شمركند، أي شمر هدمها، فعرّبتها العرب فقالت سمرقند، وقد ذكر ذلك دعبل الخزاعي في قصيدته التي يفتخر فيها ويردّ بها على الكميت ويذكر التبابعة:
وهم كتبوا الكتاب بباب مرو، ... وباب الصّين كانوا الكاتبينا
وهم سمّوا قديما سمرقندا، ... وهم غرسوا هناك التّبّتينا
فسار شمر وهو يريد الصين فمات هو وأصحابه عطشا ولم يرجع منهم مخبّر، فبقيت سمرقند خرابا إلى أن ملك تبّع الأقرن بن أبي مالك بن ناشر ينعم فلم تكن له همّة إلّا الطلب بثأر جدّه شمر الذي هلك بأرض الصين فتجهّز واستعدّ وسار في جنوده نحو العراق فخرج إليه بهمن بن إسفنديار وأعطاه الطاعة وحمل إليه الخراج حتى وصل إلى سمرقند فوجدها خرابا، فأمر بعمارتها وأقام عليها حتى ردّها إلى أفضل ما كانت عليه، وسار حتى أتى بلادا واسعة فبنى التّبّت كما ذكرنا، ثمّ قصد الصين فقتل وسبى وأحرق وعاد إلى اليمن في قصة طويلة، وقيل: إن سمرقند من بناء الإسكندر، واستدارة حائطها اثنا عشر فرسخا، وفيها بساتين ومزارع وأرحاء، ولها اثنا عشر بابا، من الباب إلى الباب فرسخ، وعلى أعلى السور آزاج وأبرجة للحرب، والأبواب الاثنا عشر من حديد، وبين كلّ بابين منزل للنوّاب، فإذا جزت المزارع صرت إلى الربض وفيه أبنية وأسواق، وفي ربضها من المزارع عشرة آلاف جريب، ولهذه المدينة، أعني الداخلة، أربعة أبواب، وساحتها ألفان وخمسمائة جريب، وفيها المسجد الجامع والقهندز وفيه مسكن السلطان، وفي هذه المدينة الداخلة نهر يجري في رصاص، وهو نهر قد بني عليه مسنّاة عالية من حجر يجري عليه الماء إلى أن يدخل المدينة من باب كسّ، ووجه هذا النهر رصاص كلّه، وقد عمل في خندق المدينة مسنّاة وأجري عليها، وهو نهر يجري في وسط السوق بموضع يعرف بباب الطاق،
وكان أعمر موضع بسمرقند، وعلى حافات هذا النهر غلّات موقوفة على من بات في هذا النهر وحفظة من المجوس عليهم حفظ هذا النهر شتاء وصيفا مستفرض ذلك عليهم، وفي المدينة مياه من هذا النهر عليها بساتين، وليس من سكة ولا دار إلّا وبها ماء جار إلّا القليل، وقلّما تخلو دار من بستان حتى إنّك إذا صعدت قهندزها لا ترى أبنية المدينة لاستتارها عنك بالبساتين والأشجار، فأمّا داخل سوق المدينة الكبيرة ففيه أودية وأنهار وعيون وجبال، وعلى القهندز باب حديد من داخله باب آخر حديد، ولما ولي سعيد بن عثمان خراسان في سنة 55 من جهة معاوية عبر النهر ونزل على سمرقند محاصرا لها وحلف لا يبرح حتى يدخل المدينة ويرمي القهندز بحجر أو يعطوه رهنا من أولاد عظمائهم، فدخل المدينة ورمى القهندز بحجر فثبت فيه فتطيّر أهلها بذلك وقالوا:
ثبت فيها ملك العرب، وأخذ رهانهم وانصرف، فلمّا كانت سنة 87 عبر قتيبة بن مسلم النهر وغزا بخارى والشاش ونزل على سمرقند، وهي غزوته الأولى، ثمّ غزا ما وراء النهر عدّة غزوات في سنين سبع وصالح أهلها على أن له ما في بيوت النيران وحلية الأصنام، فأخرجت إليه الأصنام فسلب حليها وأمر بتحريقها، فقال سدنتها: إن فيها أصناما من أحرقها هلك! فقال قتيبة: أنا أحرقها بيدي، وأخذ شعلة نار وأضرمها فاضطرمت فوجد بقايا ما كان فيها من مسامير الذهب خمسين ألف مثقال، وبسمرقند عدّة مدن مذكورة في مواضعها، منها: كرمانية ودبوسية وأشروسنة والشاش ونخشب وبناكث، وقالوا: ليس في الأرض مدينة أنزه ولا أطيب ولا أحسن مستشرفا من سمرقند، وقد شبهها حضين بن المنذر الرقاشي فقال:
كأنّها السماء للخضرة وقصورها الكواكب للإشراق ونهرها المجرّة للاعتراض وسورها الشمس للإطباق، ووجد بخط بعض ظرفاء العراق مكتوبا على حائط سمرقند:
وليس اختياري سمرقند محلّة ... ودار مقام لاختيار ولا رضا
ولكنّ قلبي حلّ فيها فعاقني ... وأقعدني بالصغر عن فسحة الفضا
وإنّي لممّن يرقب الدّهر راجيا ... ليوم سرور غير مغرى بما مضى
وقال أحمد بن واضح في صفة سمرقند:
علت سمرقند أن يقال لها ... زين خراسان جنّة الكور
أليس أبراجها معلّقة ... بحيث لا تستبين للنّظر
ودون أبراجها خنادقها ... عميقة ما ترام من ثغر
كأنّها وهي وسط حائطها ... محفوفة بالظّلال والشّجر
بدر وأنهارها المجرّة وال ... آطام مثل الكواكب الزّهر
وقال البستي:
للنّاس في أخراهم جنّة، ... وجنّة الدنيا سمرقند
يا من يسوّي أرض بلخ بها، ... هل يستوي الحنظل والقند؟
قال الأصمعي: مكتوب على باب سمرقند بالحميرية:
بين هذه المدينة وبين صنعاء ألف فرسخ، وبين بغداد وبين إفريقية ألف فرسخ، وبين سجستان وبين البحر مائتا فرسخ، ومن سمرقند إلى زامين سبعة عشر
فرسخا، وقال الشيخ أبو سعد عبد الكريم بن محمد بن منصور السمعاني: أخبرنا أبو الفضل محمد بن عبد الله ابن المظفّر الكسّي بسمرقند أنبأنا أبو الحسن عليّ بن عثمان بن إسماعيل الخرّاط إملاء أنبأنا عبد الجبار بن أحمد الخطيب أنبأنا أبو بكر محمد بن عبد الله الخطيب أنبأنا محمد بن عبد الله بن عليّ السائح الباهلي أنبأنا الزاهد أبو يحيى أحمد بن الفضل أنبأنا مسعود بن كامل أبو سعيد السكّاك حدثنا جابر بن معاذ الأزدي أنبأنا أبو مقاتل حفص بن مسلم الفزاري أنبأنا برد بن سنان عن أنس بن مالك، رضي الله عنه، أنّه ذكر مدينة خلف نهر جيحون تدعى سمرقند ثمّ قال: لا تقولوا سمرقند ولكن قولوا المدينة المحفوظة، فقال أناس:
يا أبا حمزة ما حفظها؟ فقال: أخبرني حبيبي رسول الله، صلّى الله عليه وسلّم، أن مدينة بخراسان خلف النهر تدعى المحفوظة، لها أبواب على كلّ باب منها خمسة آلاف ملك يحفظونها يسبّحون ويهلّلون، وفوق المدينة خمسة آلاف ملك يبسطون أجنحتهم على أن يحفظوا أهلها، ومن فوقهم ملك له ألف رأس وألف فم وألف لسان ينادي يا دائم يا دائم يا الله يا صمد احفظ هذه المدينة، وخلف المدينة روضة من رياض الجنة، وخارج المدينة ماء حلو عذب من شرب منه شرب من ماء الجنّة ومن اغتسل فيه خرج من ذنوبه كيوم ولدته أمّه، وخارج المدينة على ثلاثة فراسخ ملائكة يطوفون يحرسون رساتيقها ويدعون الله بالذكر لهم، وخلف هؤلاء الملائكة واد فيه حيّات وحيّة تخرج على صفة الآدميّين تنادي يا رحمن الدنيا ورحيم الآخرة ارحم هذه المدينة المحفوظة، ومن تعبّد فيها ليلة تقبّل الله منه عبادة سبعين سنة، ومن صام فيها يوما فكأنّما صام الدهر، ومن أطعم فيها مسكينا لا يدخل منزله فقر أبدا، ومن مات في هذه المدينة فكأنّما مات في السماء السابعة ويحشر يوم القيامة مع الملائكة في الجنة، وزاد حذيفة بن اليمان في رواية: ومن خلفها قرية يقال لها قطوان يبعث منها سبعون ألف شهيد يشفع كلّ شهيد منهم في سبعين من أهل بيته، وقال حذيفة: وددت أن يوافقني هذا الزمان وكان أحبّ إليّ من أن أوافق ليلة القدر، وهذا الحديث في كتاب الأفانين للسمعاني، وينسب إلى سمرقند جماعة كثيرة، منهم: محمد بن عدي بن الفضل أبو صالح السمرقندي نزيل مصر، سمع بدمشق أبا الحسين الميداني، وبمصر أبا مسلم الكاتب وأبا الحسن عليّ بن محمد بن إسحاق الحلبي وأبا الحسين أحمد بن محمد الأزهر التنيسي المعروف بابن السمناوي ومحمد ابن سراقة العامري وأحمد بن محمد الجمّازي وأبا القاسم الميمون بن حمزة الحسيني وأبا الحسن محمد بن أحمد بن العباس الإخميمي وأبا الحسن علي بن محمد ابن سنان، روى عنه أبو الربيع سليمان بن داود بن أبي حفص الجبلي وأبو عبد الله بن الخطّاب وسهل بن بشر وأبو الحسن عليّ بن أحمد بن ثابت العثماني الديباجي وأبو محمد هيّاج بن عبيد الحطّيني، ومات سنة 444 وأحمد بن عمر بن الأشعث أبو بكر السمرقندي، سكن دمشق مدة وكان يكتب بها المصاحف ويقرأ ويقرئ القرآن، وسمع بدمشق أبا علي بن أبي نصر وأبا عثمان إسماعيل بن عبد الرحمن الصابوني، روى عنه أبو الفضل كمّاد بن ناصر بن نصر المراغي الحدّادي، حدث عنه ابنه أبو القاسم، قال ابن عساكر:
سمعت الحسن بن قيس يذكر أن أبا بكر السمرقندي كان يكتب المصاحف من حفظه وكان لجماعة من أهل دمشق فيه رأي حسن فسمعت الحسن بن قيس يذكر أنّه خرج مع جماعة إلى ظاهر البلد في فرجة فقدّموه يصلي بهم وكان مزّاحا، فلمّا سجد بهم تركهم في الصلاة وصعد إلى شجرة، فلمّا طال عليهم انتظاره رفعوا رؤوسهم فلم يجدوه فإذا هو في الشجرة يصيح صياح السنانير فسقط من أعينهم، فخرج إلى بغداد وترك أولاده بدمشق واتصل ببغداد بعفيف الخادم القائمي فكان يكرمه وأنزله في موضع من داره، فكان إذا جاءه الفرّاش بالطعام يذكر أولاده بدمشق فيبكي، فحكى الفرّاش ذلك لعفيف الخادم فقال:
سله عن سبب بكائه، فسأله فقال: إن لي بدمشق أولادا في ضيق فإذا جاءني الطعام تذكّرتهم، فأخبره الفرّاش بذلك، فقال: سله أين يسكنون وبمن يعرفون، فسأله فأخبره، فبعث عفيف إليهم من حملهم من دمشق إلى بغداد، فما أحسّ بهم أبو بكر حتى قدم عليه ابنه أبو محمد وقد خلّف أمّه وأخويه عبد الواحد وإسماعيل بالرحبة ثمّ قدموا بعد ذلك فلم يزالوا في ضيافة عفيف حتى مات، وسألت ابنه أبا القاسم عن وفاته فقال في رمضان سنة 489.

سر

1 سَرَّهُ, accord. to the TA, has two contr. significations: for it is there stated that “ one says سَرَرْتُهُ meaning كَتَمْتُهُ and سَرَرْتُهُ meaning أَعْلَنْتُهُ: ” and it is added that “ it will occur again soon: ” but it does not again occur in that work, nor have I found it in any other lexicon: I therefore think that it is a mistranscription, for أَسْرَرْتُهُ, first Pers\. of أَسَرَّهُ, q. v.]

A2: سَرَّهُ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـُ (MS,) inf. n. مَسَرَّةٌ (S, O, K) and سُرُورٌ [which latter, from the explanations of it which will be found below, seems to be generally, if not only, as an inf. n., that of سُرَّ,] and سُرٌّ [which is also syn. with سُرُورٌ in the senses assigned to the latter below] and سُرَّى and تَسِرَّةٌ [which last may be also an inf. n. of ↓ سرّرهُ expl. by Freytag as syn. with سَرَّهُ in the sense here following, but without an indication of any authority], (O, K,) He, or it, rejoiced him; gladdened him; or made him happy; syn. أَفْرَحَهُ: (Msb, K:) [or made him to experience a pleasure, or delight, and dilatation of the heart, of which there was no external sign: see سُرُورٌ, below.] And سُرَّ, [inf. n. سُرُورٌ, (see above,)] He rejoiced; was joyful, or glad; or was happy: (S, * A, * K:) [or he experienced a pleasure, or delight, and dilatation of the heart, of which there was no external sign; accord. to an explanation of سُرُورٌ:] you say, سُرَّ بِهِ and ↓ اِسْتَسَرَّ [He rejoiced, was joyful or glad, or was happy, by reason of him, or it]. (A.) b2: سَرَّهُ, (K,) aor. as above, (TA,) also signifies He saluted him with [the offering of what are termed] المَسَرَّة, i. e. the extremities of sweet-smelling plants. (K.) A3: Also سَرَّهُ, (S, M,) aor. as above, inf. n. سَرٌّ, (S,) or سِرٌّ, (so in a copy of the M,) He cut his (a child's) سِرَر, or سُرّ, i. e. navel-string. (S, M.) and سُرَّ He (a child) had his navel-string cut. (K.) b2: And سَرَّهُ, aor. as above, He pierced him, or thrust him, [with a spear or the like,] in his سُرَّة [or navel]: a poet says, وَإِنْ أَدْبَرُوا فَهُمُ مَنْ يُسَبْ نَسُرُّهُمُ إِنْ هُمُ أَقْبَلُوا [We pierce them in the navel if they advance; and if they retreat, they are those who are pierced in the podex; يُسَبْ being for يُسَبُّ]. (S.) A4: سَرَّ الزَّنْدَ, aor. as above, inf. n. سَرٌّ, He put a piece of wood, (M, K,) or a little piece of wood, (S,) in the interior of the زند [or piece of stick, or wood, for producing fire], (M,) or in its extremity, (S, K,) inserting it in its interior, (S,) in order that he might produce fire with it. (S, M, K.) One says, سُرَّ زَنْدَكَ فَإِنَّهُ أَسَرُّ Fill up the interior of thy زند, that it may produce fire, (AHn, M,) for it is [worn] hollow. (S, K.) A5: سَرَّ, [sec. Pers\. سَرِرْتَ,] aor. ـَ (IAar, Sgh, L, K,) inf. n. سَرَرٌ, remarked upon by MF as extr., [though it is agreeable with a general rule,] said of a man, (TA,) He had a complaint of the سُرَّة [or navel]. (IAar, Sgh, L, K.) b2: Also, aor. and inf. n. as in the next preceding case, said of a camel, He had the pain, or disorder, termed سَرَرٌ [q. v.]. (IAar, M.) 2 سَرَّّ see 1, second sentence.

A2: سَرَّرْتُهُ in the phrase سَرَّرْتُهُ سُرِّيَّةً I gave him, or caused him to take, a concubine slave, doubly trans., is [said to be] changed to سَرَّيْتُهُ for alleviation of the pronunciation. (Msb.) A3: سرّرهُ, inf. n. تَسْرِيرٌ, said of water, It reached his سُرَّة [or navel]. (K.) 3 سارّهُ, inf. n. مُسَارَّةٌ and سِرَارٌ, (S, M,) [He spoke, or discoursed, secretly to him or with him;] he acquainted him with a secret. (M.) You say, سارّهُ فِى أُذُنِهِ He spoke secretly to him in his ear. (S, * K, * TK.) And كَانَ يُحَدِّثُهُ كَأَخِى السِّرَارِ occurs in a trad., meaning He (Mohammad) used to talk to him ('Omar) in a low voice, like him who is telling a secret. (TA.) b2: بَيْعُ السِّرَارِ is The selling in which one says, “I will put forth my hand and thou shalt put forth thy hand, and if I produce my signet-ring before thee, it is a sale for such a price; and if thou produce thy signet-ring before me, for such a price: ” if they produce together, or do not both produce, they do thus again. (Mgh.) 4 اسرّهُ, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِسْرَارٌ; (Msb;) [and accord. to the TA سَرَّهُ; but see the first sentence of this art.;] He concealed it; suppressed it; kept it secret; (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K;) namely, a story, or the like: (A, Mgh, Msb:) and, contr., he manifested it; revealed it; published it; made it known. (S, M, Msb, K.) Both of these significations have been assigned to the verb in the phrase وَأَسَرُّوا النَّدَامَةَ, in the Kur [x. 55 and xxxiv. 32]: (S:) some say, that the meaning is They will manifest repentance: Th says, they will conceal it from their chiefs: the former [says ISd] is the more correct: (M:) the former meaning is also given on the authority of AO; but Sh says, I have not heard it on the authority of any other; and Az says that the lexicologists most strongly disapprove of the saying of AO; and it is said that the meaning is, they, the chiefs of the polytheists, will conceal repentance from the lower class of their people, whom they shall have caused to err; and in like manner say Zj and the [other] expositors. (TA.) In like manner also the two contr. significations are assigned to the verb in the saying of Imra-el- Keys, [in his Mo'allakah,] لَوْ يُسِرُّونَ مَقْتَلِى, which As used to quote with ش, thus, لَوْ يُشِرُّونَ مَقْتَلِى, meaning that they might publish, or make known, my slaughter. (S.) You say also, أَسَرَّ إِلَيْهِ حَدِيثًا He revealed unto him a story (S, K) secretly. (TA.) An ex. occurs in the Kur lxvi. 3. (TA.) And أَسْرَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ المَوَدَّةَ, and بِالمَوَدَّةِ, I showed, or manifested, to him love, or affection. (S.) It is said in the Kur [lx. 1], تُسِرُّونَ إِلَيْهِمْ بِالْمَوَدَّةِ, meaning, Ye reveal to them the news of the Prophet by reason of the love that is between you and them; the objective complement of the verb being suppressed: or المودّة may be an objective complement, the ب being a redundant corroborative, as in أَخَذَ الخِطَامَ and أَخَذَ بِهِ: (Msb:) and this interpretation is correct; for إِسْرَارٌ to a person necessarily implies revealing a secret to him and at the same time concealing it from another. (B.) b2: وَأَسَرُّوهُ بِضَاعَةً, in the Kur xii. 19, signifies And they concealed, or kept secret, his case, making him as an article of merchandise: (Jel:) or they conjectured in their minds that they should obtain, by selling him, merchandise. (TA.) [See also an ex. voce اِرْتَغَى, in art. رغو.] b3: اسرّ الفَاتِحَةَ, and بِالفَاتِحَةِ, He recited the Fátihah [or First Chapter of the Kur-án] secretly, or inaudibly: (Msb:) or the latter form of expression is a mistake. (Mgh.) b4: أَسْرَرْتُهُ also signifies نَسَبْتُهُ إِلَى السِّرِّ [which may mean either I attributed it to secrecy, or, like many phrases of this kind, by inversion, I attributed to him secrecy, or mystery]. (Msb.) 5 تسرّر and تسرّى, (M, K,) and ↓ استسرّ, (K,) He took to himself a concubine-slave. (M, * K, * TA.) And تَسَرَّرْتُ جَارِيَةً, and تَسَرَّيْتُهَا, (S,) and ↓ اِسْتَسَرَّيْتُهَا, (TA,) I took to myself a girl, or young woman, as a concubine-slave. (S, * TA.) تَسَرَّرْتُهَا is [said to be] thus changed to تَسَرَّيْتُهَا, (T, S, Msb,) for alleviation of the pronunciation, (Msb,) on account of the three ر s following one another, (T,) being like تَظَنَّنْتُ and تَظَنَّيْتُ. (T, * S.) Lth says that تسرّيت is a mistake; but Az says that it is correct. (TA.) ↓ اِسْتَسَرَّنِى

occurs in a trad. as signifying He took me to himself as a concubine-slave; but by rule one should say تَسَرَّرَنِى, or تَسَرَّانِى: as to ↓ استسرّنى, it [more properly] signifies “ He revealed to me his secret. ” (TA.) b2: تَسَرَّرَ فُلَانٌ بِنْتَ فُلَانٍ [as though signifying Such a one took to himself the daughter of such a one as a concubine-slave] is said when a man of low birth takes as his wife a woman or girl of high birth because of the abundance of his property and the littleness of hers. (M.) 6 تسارّوا They spoke, or discoursed, secretly together; acquainted one another with secrets. (S, K.) [See also 3.]

A2: تسارّإِلَى ذٰلِكَ (tropical:) He experienced pleasure, or delight, at that: as, for instance, at his scratching a part of his body, or pressing, or kneading, it; and at a thing disliked by another person. (A, TA.) [But I am in some doubt as to the correctness of this, and incline to think that it is a mistake for ↓ استسرّ.]10 استسرّ He, or it, became concealed; or he, or it, concealed himself or itself: (K:) it (a thing, or an affair,) became hidden or concealed or secret: (A, Msb:) it (the moon) became concealed (S, M, A, TA) by the light of the sun, (TA,) [i. e. by its proximity to the sun,] for one night, or for two nights. (AO, S.) A2: استسرّهُ He took extraordinary pains in concealing it, or keeping it secret. (TA.) b2: See also 5, in four places. b3: اِسْتَسَرَّنِى He revealed to me his secret. (TA.) A3: See also 1; and see 6, last sentence.

سَرٌّ A man who rejoices, or gladdens, another; or makes him happy; (S, K;) [and so ↓ سَارٌّ:] fem. سَرَّةٌ; with which ↓ سَارَّةٌ is syn. (Lh, M, K.) You say رَجُلٌ بَرٌّ سَرٌّ A man who treats with goodness and affection and gentleness, and rejoices &c., (S, K, TA,) his brethren: (TA:) pl. بَرُّونَ سَرُّونَ. (S, K.) سُرٌّ: see سُرُورٌ: A2: and سِرٌّ, last sentence but one.

A3: It is also a contraction of سُرُرٌ, pl. of سَرِيرٌ. (Sb, M.) A4: Also, and ↓ سِرَرٌ, (S, M, K,) and ↓ سَرَرٌ, (S, K, in the CK سُرَر,) The navel-string of a child; i. e. the thing that the midwife cuts off from the navel (سُرَّة) of a child; (S, K;) the thing that hangs from the navel (سُرَّة) of a newborn child, and that is cut off: or ↓ سِرَرٌ signifies the part that is cut off thereof, and that goes away: (M:) pl. (of سِرَرٌ, S, [or of سُرٌّ or سَرَرٌ,]) أَسِرَّةٌ, (Yaakoob, S, M, K,) which is extr. (M.) One says, عَرَفْتُ ذٰلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُقْطَعَ سُرُّكَ [I knew that before thy navel-string was cut]: one should not say سُرَّتُكَ; for the سُرَّة is not cut. (S.) and وَاحِدِ ↓ وَلَدَتْ ثَلَاثَةً فِى سَرَرٍ She brought forth three [boys] consecutively, or one at the heels of another. (M.) [See also سِرٌّ, last sentence.]

سِرٌّ A secret; a thing that is concealed, or suppressed, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) in the mind; (TA;) as also ↓ سَرِيرَةٌ: (S, M, A, K:) or the former has the above-mentioned signification, and the latter signifies a secret action, whether good or evil: (Lth:) [and the former, also, a mystery:] pl. of the former, أَسْرَارٌ; (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K;) and of the latter, سَرَائِرُ. (S, A, K.) It is said in a prov., مَا يَوْمُ حَلِيمَةَ بِسِرٍّ [The day of Haleemeh is not a secret]: applied to anything commonly known: alluding to Haleemeh the daughter of El-Hárith the son of Aboo-Shemir El-Ghassánee; for, when her father sent an army to El-Mundhir the son of Má-es-Semà, she took forth for the soldiers some perfume in a vessel (مِرْكَن), and perfumed them with it. (S.) [You say also, هُوَ مَوْضِعُ سِرِّى He is the depositary of my secret, or secrets.] The words of the Kur [lxxxvi. 9] ↓ يَوْمَ تُبْلَى السَّرَائِرُ signify In the day wherein the secret tenets and intentions shall be tried and revealed: (Jel:) or by السرائر is here meant fasting, and prayer, and alms-giving, and ablution on account of the pollution termed جَنَابَة. (TA.) [See also a verse cited in the third paragraph of art. عرض.] b2: A thing that is revealed, appears, or is made manifest: thus it has two contrary significations. (MF.) b3: السِّرُّ [for مَحَلُّ السِّرِّ, (assumed tropical:) The heart; the mind; the recesses of the mind; the secret thoughts; the soul;] is a syn. of الضَّمِيرُ. (K in art. ضمر. [See also سَرِيرَةٌ.]) [لَا تُتْعِبْ سِرَّكَ (assumed tropical:) Weary not thy heart, or mind, is a common modern phrase. And one says, of a deceased holy man, قَدَّسَ اللّٰهُ سِرَّهُ (assumed tropical:) May God sanctify his soul.] b4: سِرٌّ also signifies Secrecy; privacy; contr. of عَلَانِيَةٌ. (S in art. علن.)
