1 فَرَقَ بَيْنَ الشَّيْئَيْنِ, (
S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,

aor. ـُ (
S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,) and in one
dial. فَرِقَ, (
Msb,
TA,)
inf. n. فَرْغٌ and فُرْقَانٌ, (
S,
O,
Msb,
K,) the latter of which has a more intensive signification, (
TA,) He made a separation, or a distinction, or difference, (
Msb,
K,
TA,) between the two things, (
K, *
TA,) or between the parts of the two things: (
Msb:) relating alike to objects of sight and to objects of mental perception: (
TA:)
IAar, by exs. that he mentions, makes it to relate particularly to objects of the mind, such as sayings; and ↓ فرّق, to persons, or material things: (
Msb: [and it is stated in the
Mgh that the same distinction is mentioned by
Az:]) others, however, state that the two verbs are
syn.; but that the latter has an intensive signification. (
Msb.) It is said in the
Kur [
v. 28], فَافْرُقْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْقَوْمِ الفَاسِقِينَ [Therefore decide Thou, or make Thou a distinction, between us and the unrighteous people]:
accord. to one reading, فَافْرِقْ. (
Msb,
TA.) فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ, in the
Kur [xliv. 3], means [Wherein] is made distinct [every firm decree]: (
Lth,
TA:) or is decided; (
O,
K,
TA;) thus
expl. by Katádeh. (
O,
TA.) And in the phrase وَقُرآنًا فَرَقْنَاهُ, (
S,
O,
K,
TA,) in the same [xvii. 107], (
S,
O,
TA,) by فَرَقْنَاهُ is meant We have made it distinct, (
S,
O,
K,
TA,) and rendered it free from defect, (
O,
K,
TA,) and explained the ordinances therein: (
TA:) but some read ↓ فَرَّقْنَاهُ, meaning We have sent it down in sundry portions, in a number of days. (
S,
TA.)
وَإِذْ فَرَقْنَا بِكُمُ الْبَحْرَ, (
O,
K,
TA,) in the
Kur [ii. 47], (
O,
TA,) means And when we clave because of you the sea;
i. q. فَلَقْنَاهُ: (
O,
K,
TA:) another reading, ↓ فَرَّقْنَا, meaning we divided into several portions, is mentioned by
IJ; but this is unusual. (
TA.) It is also said that الفَرْقُ is for rectification; and ↓ التَّفْرِيقُ, for vitiation: and
IJ says that إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَرَّقُوا ↓ دِيْنَهُمْ CCC, in the
Kur [vi. 160, and the like occurs in xxx. 31], means Verily those who have divided their religion into sundry parts, and dismembered it, and have disagreed respecting it among themselves: but that some read فَرَقُوا دِيْنَهُمْ, without teshdeed, meaning, have severed their religion from the other religions [
app. by taking it in part, or parts, therefrom]; or this, he says, may mean the same as the former reading, for sometimes فَعَلَ has the same meaning as فَعَّلَ. (
TA.)
IJ also says that فَرَقَ لَهُ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ signifies He made the thing distinct, or plain, to him. (
TA.)
b2: فَرَقَ الشَّعْرَ بِالمُشْطِ,

TA.) [and it is implied in a
trad. cited in the O and

A2: فَرَقَ لَهُ الطَّرِيقُ, (
S,
O,
K,)
inf. n. فُرُوقٌ, (
K,) The road presented itself to him divided into two roads: (
S,
O,
K,
TA:) or [it means] an affair presented itself, or occurred, to him, and he knew the mode, or manner, thereof: (
TA, as from the
K: [but not in the
CK nor in my
MS. copy of the
K:]) and hence, in a
trad. of
I'Ab, فَرَقَ لِى رَأْىٌ An idea, or opinion, appeared [or occurred] to me: (
TA:) [or] one says, فَرَقَ لِى هٰذَا الأَمْرُ,
inf. n. فُرُوقٌ, This affair became, or has become, distinct, apparent, or manifest, to me: and hence the saying, فَإِنْ لَمْ يُفْرُقْ لِلْإِمَامِ رَأْىٌ [And if an idea, or an opinion, appear not, or occur not, to the Imám]. (

q. v.] (
O,
K,
TA) of sheep or goats: (

TA:)
accord. to the

TA.)
A5: فَرَقَهَا, (
K,)
inf. n. فَرْقٌ, (
TA,) He fed her (i. e. a woman) with فَرِيقَة [
q. v.]; as also ↓ افرقها, (

S,
O,
Msb: *) but you should not say, فَرِقْتُكَ: (
S, O:)
Sb [however] mentions فَرِقَهُ, suppressing مِنْ. (
TA.) And you say also, فَرِقَ عَلَيْهِ [He feared for him]. (
TA.)
A8: And فَرِقَ,
aor. ـَ He entered into a wave, [which is termed فِرْقٌ,] and dived therein. (
K.)
A9: And the same verb
accord. to the
K, but
accord. to
Sgh [in the O] it seems, from the context to be فَرَقَ, (
TA,) He drank (
O,
K) the measure called فَرَق, (
O,) or with the فَرَق. (
K,
TA.) 2 فرّقهُ,
inf. n. تَفْرِيقٌ and تَفْرِقَةٌ, (
S,
O,
K,) He separated it [into several, or many, portions]; disunited it [i. e. a thing, or a collection of things]; or dispersed, or dissipated, it; or did so much [or greatly or widely];
syn. بَدَّدَهُ. (
K.) And فرّق بَيْنَ الأَشْيَآءِ [He made, or caused, a separation &c., or much, or a wide, separation, &c., between the things]. (
Mgh.) [And فِيهِمْ فرّقهُ and عَلَيْهِمْ He scattered, or distributed, it among them, and to them.] See 1, former half, in five places. It is said in a
trad. of 'Omar, فَرِّقُوا عَنِ المَنِيَّةِ وَاجْعَلُوا الرَّأْسَ رَأْسَيْنِ, (
Mgh,
O, *) meaning Separate ye your cattle by way of preservation from death, [and make the one head two head,] by buying two animals with the price of one, that, when one dies, the second may remain. (
Mgh, O.) and it is said in a
trad. respecting the poor-rate, لَا يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ وَلَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ مُفْتَرِقٍ There shall be no separating what is put together, nor shall there be a putting together what is separate. (
TA. [The reason is, that by either of these acts, in the case of cattle, the amount of the poor-rate may be diminished.]) يُفَرِّقُونَ بِهِ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَزَوْجِهِ [in the
Kur ii. 96, meaning Whereby they might dissolve, break up, discompose, derange, disorganize, disorder, or unsettle, the state of union subsisting between the man and his wife, in respect of affairs and of the expression of opinion, or, briefly, whereby they might cause division and dissension between the man and his wife,] is from التَفْرِيقُ as meaning تَشْتِيتُ الشَّمْلِ وَالكَلِمَةِ. (El-Isbahánee,
TA.) One says also, فرّق الأَمْرَ, meaning شَتَّتَهُ [i. e. He discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, the state of affairs]. (
S in art. شت.) And فرّق عَلَيْنَا الكَلَامَ [
lit. He scattered speech (
app. meaning he jabbered) at us, or against us]. (
K in art. بق: see
R.
Q. 1 in that art.) In the saying in the
Kur [ii. 130 and iii.
78], لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ [We will not make a distinction between any of them], the verb is allowably made to relate to احد because this word [in negative phrases] imports a
pl. meaning. (
TA. [See p. 27, 3rd col.]) See, again, 1, near the middle.
A2: فرّقهُ, (
O,
TA,)
inf. n. تَفْرِيقٌ, (

Msb:) and
Lh mentions الصَبِىَّ ↓ فَرَقْتُ as meaning I frightened the boy, or child; but
ISd says, I think it to be فَرَّقْتُ. (

Lth,
As,

K;) or recovered, but not completely; (
As,
O,
K;) to which IKh adds, quickly; (
TA;) i. e., a sick person from (مِنْ) his sickness; (
As,
Az,
S,
O,
K;) and one fevered from his fever; (
As,
S;) and one smitten with the plague: (
Lth,
TA:) or (
K) it is not said except in the case of a disease that does not attack one more than once, as the small-pox, (
O,
K,) and the measles. (
O.)
b2: افرقت She (a camel) had a return of some of her milk. (
O,
K.)
A3: افرق said of a man, and of a bird, and of a beast of prey, and of a fox, He voided dung, or thin dung. (

TA. [See also 1, last quarter.])
b2: And افرقهُ He, or it, caused him to void dung;
syn. أَذْرَقَهُ. (
K. [But I do not find اذرق mentioned except as an
intrans. v.]) See also فِرْقَةٌ, last sentence.

CK تَفْراق,] It was, or became, separated, or disunited: or separated much, or greatly, or widely, or into several, or many, portions; or dispersed, or dissipated:
contr. of تَجَمَّعَ: and ↓ افترق signifies the same: (
K,
TA:) and so does ↓ انفرق: (
TA:) all are quasi-
pass. of فَرَّقْتُهُ: (
S, *
TA:) [or rather the second and third have the former of the meanings mentioned above: and تفرّق has the latter of those meanings:] or ↓ اِفْتَرَقَا is said of two sayings, as quasi-
pass. of فَرَقْتُ بَيْنَهُمَا: and تَفَرَّقَا, of two men, as quasi-
pass. of فَرَّقْتُ بَيْنَهَمَا: (
Mgh, *
Msb,
TA:) so says
IAar: (
Msb:) [but] one says also, افترق القَوْمُ [The party, or company of men, became separated; or they separated themselves:] (
Msb:) and Esh-
Sháfi'ee has used ↓ اِفْتَرَقَا as relating to two persons buying and selling; (
Msb,
TA;) and so have Ahmad [Ibn-Hambal] and Aboo-Haneefeh and
Málik and others. (
TA.) It is said in a
trad., البَيَّعَانِ بِالخِيَارِ مَا يَتَفَرَّقَا i. e. [The buyer and seller have the option to annul their contract] as long as they have not become separated bodily; (
Mgh,
Msb;) originally, مَا لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقْ أَبْدَانُهُمَا; for this is the proper meaning. (
Msb.) تَفَرَّقَتْ بِهِمُ الطُّرُقُ [properly The roads became separate with them,] means every one of them went one [separate] way. (
TA.) [And one says, تفرّقت الأَغْصَانُ (
S in art. شذب, &c.,) The branches were, or became, or grew out, apart, one from another; divaricated; diverged; forked; straggled; or spread widely and dispersedly. and تفرّق أَمْرُهُ His affair, or state of affairs, became discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, so that he considered what might be its issues, or results, saying at one time, I will do thus, and at another time, I will do thus: see أَجْمَعَ; and شَتَّ: and ↓ افترق signifies the same: see an
ex. voce فَشَا, in art. فشو. And تفرّقت كَلِمَتُهُمْ (
K voce شَالَ, in art. شول,) Their expression of opinion was, or became, discordant: and تفرّقت آرَاؤُهُمْ Their opinions were, or became, so.]
6 تفارقوا They separated themselves, one from another; or left, forsook, or abandoned, one another. (
TA.) 7 انفرق, of which مُنْفَرَقٌ may be an
inf. n. [like اِنْفِرَاقٌ], as well as a
n. of place, It was, or became, separated, or divided. (
O,
K.) See also 5.
[Hence,] انفرق الفَجْرُ
i. q. اِنْفَلَقَ [The dawn broke]. (
TA.) 8 افترق: see 5, first sentence, in three places: and also in the last sentence but one.
فَرْقٌ [is originally an

TA.)
b3: [And
app. A blaze on a horse's forehead. (See an

app. meaning Two separate bowls, or milking-vessels, supposing the former word to be قَدَحَانِ; the latter word being مُفْتَرِقَانِ]. (
TA. [This is
app. said in explanation of فُرْقَانِ ending a verse in which it means “ milkingvessels: ” but it is said in the
S, and in one place in the
TA, that it is in that instance
pl. of فَرْقٌ or فَرَقٌ,
q. v.]) فِرْقٌ A piece, or portion, that is split from a thing, or cleft therefrom; (
S,
O,
K;) whence its usage in the

S, O:) and a portion of anything (
K,
TA) when it is separated; and the
pl. is فِرَقٌ: (
TA:) or a portion that is separated, or dispersed, of a thing; and thus it is said to mean in the

K];) because it has become separated from the blackness of the night: (
TA:) one says, أَبْيَنُ مِنْ فَرَقِ الصُّبْحِ a

accord. to Ahmad Ibn-Yahyà and
Khálid Ibn-Yezeed, (

S,
Mgh,
O,
Msb,

Mtr says] this I have not found in any of the lexicons in my possession; and so what is said in the Moheet, that it is sixty pints: (
Mgh:) the
pl. is فُرْقَانٌ, (
S,
Mgh,
O,
K,
TA,) which is of ↓ فَرْقٌ and of فَرَقٌ; (
S,
Mgh,
O,
TA;) and أَفْرُقٌ occurs in a
trad. as a
pl. [of pauc.] of فَرَقٌ meaning the measure thus called. (
TA.) 'Áïsheh is related to have said that she and the Prophet used to wash themselves from a vessel called the ↓ فَرْق. (
O,
Msb.) [In a verse of which a hemistich is cited in the
S and
TA, the
pl. فُرْقَان is used as meaning Milking-vessels. (See also الفُرْقُ.) Respecting a modern signification of ↓ فَرْق (A bale, or sack, of merchandise), see De Sacy's Chrest. Ar., sec. ed., iii., 378-9 and 382.]
فَرُقٌ: see فَرُوقَةٌ, in two places.
فَرِقٌ is applied to plants, or herbage, (نَبْتٌ,) as meaning [In a sparse, or scattered, state; or] small, not covering the ground: (
