الْوَاو المُفْرَدَةُ
: مِن حُروفِ المُعْجم، وَقد تقدَّم ذِكْرها، وَهِي على (أَقْسام:
(الأُولَى: العاطِفَةُ لمُطْلَقِ الجَمْع) مِن غيرِ تَرْتيبٍ (فَتَعْطِفُ الشَّيءَ على مصاحِبِه) كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {فأَنْجَيْناهُ وأَصْحابَ السَّفينةِ} ، و) تَعْطِفُ الشَّيءَ (على سابِقِه) كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {وَلَقَد أَرْسَلْنا نُوحاً وإبراهيمَ} ؛ وعَلى لاحِقِه) كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {كَذلكَ يُوحِي إِلَيْك وَإِلَى الذينَ مِن قَبْلِكَ} . والفَرْقُ بَيْنها وبَيْنَ الفاءِ أنَّ الواوَ يُعْطَفُ بهَا جُمْلَةٌ وَلَا تدلُّ على التَّرْتيبِ فِي تَقْدِيمِ المُقَدّم ذِكْره على المُؤَخّرِ ذِكْره، وأَمَّا الفرَّاء فإنَّه يُوصِلُ بهَا مَا بَعْدَها بِالَّذِي قَبْلها والمُقدّمُ الأَوَّل، وَقَالَ الفرَّاء: إِذا قلْت زُرْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ وزَيْداً فأيّهما شِئْتَ كَانَ هُوَ المُبْتَدَأ بالزِّيارَةِ، وإنْ قلْت زُرْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ فزَيْداً كانَ الأوَّل هُوَ الأوَّل والآخرُ هُوَ الآخرُ، انتَهَى. (وَإِذا قيلَ: قامَ زَيْدٌ وعَمْرٌ و، احْتَمَلَ ثلاثَةَ مَعانٍ) : المَعِيّة ومُطْلَق الجَمْع والتَّرْتيب، (وكَوْنُها للمَعِيَّةِ راجِحٌ) لمَا بَيْنهما مِن المُناسَبَةِ لأنَّ مَعَ للمُصاحَبَةِ، وَمِنْه الحديثُ: (بُعِثْتُ أَنا والساعَةُ كهَاتَيْن) ، أَي مَعَ الساعَةِ؛ (وللتَّرْتيبِ كَثيرٌ ولعَكْسِه قَليلٌ، ويجوزُ أَنْ يكونَ بَيْنَ مُتَعاطِفَيْها تَقارُبٌ أَو تَراخٍ) كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {إنَّا رَادُّوهُ إِلَيْك وجاعِلُوه مِنَ المُرْسَلِيْنَ} ، فإنَّ بينَ رَدِّ موسَى إِلَى أُمِّه وجَعْلهِ رَسُولاً زَمانٌ مُتراخٍ؛ (وَقد تَخْرُجُ الواوُ عَن إفادَةِ مُطْلَقِ الجَمْع وذلكَ على أَوْجُهٍ:
(أَحَدُها: تكونُ بمعْنَى أَوْ وذلكَ على ثلاثَةِ أَوْجُهٍ: أَحَدُها) : أَنْ (تكونَ بمعْناها فِي التَّقْسِيم، نحوُ: الكَلمةُ اسمٌ وفِعْلٌ وحَرْفٌ؛ و) الثَّانِي: (بمعْناها فِي الإباحَةِ) كَقَوْلِك: (جالِسِ الحَسَنَ وابنَ سِيرِينَ أَي أَحَدَهُما؛ و) الثالثُ: (بمَعْناها فِي التَّخْيير) كقولِ الشَّاعرِ:
(وَقَالُوا نَأَتْ فاخْتَرْ لَها الصَّبْرَ والبُكا (والوَجْهُ الثَّانِي) : أَنْ تكونَ (بمعْنَى باءِ الجَرِّ نحوُ: أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ ومالَكَ) ، أَي بمالِكَ، (وبِعْتُ الشَّاءَ شَاة ودِرْهَماً) ، أَي بدِرْهَمٍ.
(الثَّالث: بمعْنَى لامِ التَّعْليل؛ نحوُ) قَوْله تَعَالَى: {يَا لَيْتَنَا نُرَدُّ وَلَا نَكْذِبُ} ، أَي لئَلاَّ نَكْذِبَ، (قالَهُ الخارَزَنْجي) مُصنِّفُ تَكْملة العَيْن وَقد مَضَتْ تَرْجمتُه عنْدَ ذِكْرِه فِي حَرْفِ الجِيم.
(الَّرابع: وَاو الاسْتِئْنافِ) كَقَوْلِهِم: (لَا تَأْكُلِ السَّمَكَ وتَشْرَبِ اللَّبَنَ فيمَنْ رَفَعَ) ، وَقد ذُكِرَ ذلكَ فِي بَحْثِ لَا قَرِيباً.
(الْخَامِس: واوُ المَفْعولِ مَعَه: كسِرْتُ والنِّيلَ.
(السَّادِسُ: واوُ القَسَمِ) كقولِهم: واللهاِ لقَدْ كانَ كَذَا، وَهُوَ بدلٌ مِن الباءِ وإنَّما أبدلٌ مِنْهُ لقُرْبِه مِنْهُ فِي المَخْرَجِ إِذْ كانَ مِن حُروفِ الشَّفَةِ (وَلَا تَدْخُلُ إلاَّ على مُظْهَرٍ) فَلَا يقالُ وك اسْتغْنَاء بِالْبَاء عَنْهَا، (وَلَا تَتَعَلَّقُ إلاَّ بمَحْذُوفٍ نحوُ) قَوْله تَعَالَى: {والقُرآنُ الحَكِيم} ، وَلَا يقالُ أُقْسِمُ واللهاِ، (إنْ تَلَتْها واوٌ أُخْرَى) كقولِهِ تَعَالَى: {والطّورِ وكِتابٍ مَسْطورٍ} (فالثانِيَةُ للعَطْفِ) والأُولى للقَسَمِ (وإلاَّ لاحْتاجَ كلٌّ إِلَى جَوابٍ نحوُ) قَوْله تَعَالَى: {والتِّيْنِ والزَّيتُونِ) وطُورِ سِيِنِيْنَ} . (السَّابعُ: واوُ رُبّ، وَلَا تَدْخُلُ إلاَّ على مُنَكَّرٍ) مَوْصوفٍ لأنَّ وَضْعَ رُبَّ لتَقْليلِ نَوْعٍ مِن جِنْسٍ فيذكرُ الجِنْسَ ثمَّ يَخْتَصُّ بصفَةِ تَعْرفةٍ؛ وَمِنْه قولُ الشاعرِ:
وبَلْدةٍ ليسَ بهَا أَنِيسُ
إلاَّ اليَعافِيرُ وإلاَّ العِيسُ أَي ورُبَّ بَلْدةٍ.
(الثَّامن: الَّزائِدَةُ) ، كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {حَتَّى إِذا جاؤها وفُتِحَتْ أَبوابُها} ، جَوَّزَه الجَوْهرِي؛ وَقَالَ غيرُه: هِيَ واوُ الثمانِيَةِ، وَفِي الصِّحاح: قالَ الأصْمعي: قلْتُ لأبي عَمْرِو بنِ العَلاءِ: وقولُهم رَبّنا ولكَ الحَمْدُ، فقالَ: يقولُ الرَّجُلُ للرَّجُلِ بِعْني هَذَا الثَّوْبَ، فيقولُ: وَهُوَ لَكَ وأَظنُّه أَرادَ هُوَ لَك؛ وأَنْشَدَ الأخْفَش:
فَإِذا وذلِكَ يَا كُبَيْشةُ لمْ يَكُنْ
إلاَّ كَلَمَّةِ حالِمٍ بخَيالِكأنَّه قَالَ: فَإِذا ذلكَ لم يَكُنْ، وقالَ آخَرُ، وَهُوَ زُهيرٌ:
قِفْ بالدِّيارِ الَّتِي لم يَعْفُها القِدَمُ
بَلَى وغَيَّرَها الأَرْواحُ والدِّيَمُيُريدُ: بَلَى غَيَّرَها؛ كَذَا فِي الصِّحاح قَالَ ابنُ برِّي: وَقد ذَكَرَ بعضُ أَهْل العِلْم أنَّ الواوَ زائِدَةٌ فِي قَوْله تَعَالَى: {وأَوْحَيْنا إِلَيْهِ لتُنَبِّئَنَّهم بأَمْرِهم هَذَا} ، لأنَّه جوابُ لمَّا فِي قَوْله: {فلمَّا ذَهَبُوا بِهِ وأَجْمَعُوا أَنْ يَجْعَلُوه فِي غَيابَةِ الجُبِّ} . (التَّاسِعُ: واوُ الثَّمانِيَةِ: يقالُ ستَّةٌ سَبْعةٌ وثمانِيَةٌ، وَمِنْه) قَوْله تَعَالَى: {سَبْعةٌ وثامِنُهُمْ كَلْبُهُمْ} ، وَقَوله تَعَالَى: {ثَيِّبات وأَبْكَاراً} ، وَقَوله تَعَالَى: {والنَّاهُونَ عَن المُنْكَر} قَالَ السَّهيلي فِي الرَّوْضِ: واوُ الثمانِيَةِ فِي قَوْله تَعَالَى: {سَبْعةٌ وثامِنُهُم كَلْبُهُم} تدلُّ على تَصْدِيقِ القائِلِينَ بأنَّهم سَبْعةٌ لأنَّها عاطِفَةٌ على كَلامٍ مُضْمَرٍ تَقْديرُه نَعَم وثامِنُهُم كَلْبُهُم، وذلكَ أنَّ قائِلاً لَو قالَ: إنَّ زَيْداً شاعِرٌ فقُلْت لَهُ: فَقِيهٌ، كُنْت قد صدَّقْته كأنَّك قُلْت: نَعَم هُوَ كَذلكَ وفَقِيهٌ أَيْضاً؛ وَكَذَا الحديثُ: (أَيتوضَّأُ بمَا أَفْضَلَتِ الحُمُر؟ قالَ. وَبِمَا أَفْضَلَتِ السِّباعُ) ؛ يريدُ نَعَم وبَما أَفْضَلَت السِّباعُ؛ خَرَّجَه الدَّارْقطْني؛ قالَ: وَقد أَبْطَل واوَ الثمانِيَةِ هَذِه ابنُ هِشامٍ وغيرُهُ مِن المُحقِّقين وَقَالُوا: لَا مَعْنى لَهُ وبَحثُوا فِي أَمْثِلتِه وَقَالُوا إنَّها مُتناقِضَةٌ.
(العاشِرُ: واوُ ضميرِ الذُّكُورِ نحوُ) قَوْلهم: (الرِّجالُ قامُوا) ويَقُومُونَ وقُومُوا أَيّها الرِّجال، وَهُوَ (اسْمٌ) عنْدَ الأكْثرينَ، وقالَ (الأخْفَشُ والمازِنيُّ) ؛ هُوَ (حَرْفٌ.
(الحادِي عَشَرَ: واوُ عَلامةِ المُذَكَّرِينَ فِي لُغَةِ طيِّىءٍ أَو أَزْدِشَنُوءَةَ أَو بَلْحَارِثِ) على اخْتِلافٍ فِي ذلكَ؛ (وَمِنْه) الحديثُ: ((يتعاقَبُونَ فيكُمْ ملائكةٌ باللَّيلِ وملائكةٌ بالنَّهارِ) .
(الثَّانِي عَشَرَ: واوُ الإنْكارِ نحوُ: الرَّجُلُوهُ بعدَ قَوْلِ القائِلِ: قامَ الرجلُ) ، فَقَوله: الرَّجُلُوهْ هُوَ قَوْلُ المُنْكِر يَمدُّه بالواوِ والهاءِ للوَقْفَة؛ وَمِنْه كَذلكَ: الحَسَنُوهْ وعَمْرُوه، وتُسَمَّى أَيْضاً واوُ الإسْتِنْكار.
(الثَّالثُ عَشَرَ: الواوُ المُبْدلَةُ مِن هَمْزةِ الاسْتِفْهامِ المَضْمومُ مَا قَبْلَها كقِراءَةِ قُنْبُلٍ: {وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ وأَمِنْتُمْ} ،) وكَذلكَ: {قَالَ فِرْعَوْنُ وآمَنْتُمْ} .
(الَّرابعُ عَشَرَ: واوُ التَّذْكِيرِ، كَذَا فِي النسخِ، والصَّوابُ التَّذكّر، فَفِي التّكْملةِ: وتكونُ للتَّعايي والتَّذَكّر كقولِكَ: هَذَا عَمْرُو فتَسْتَمِدُّ ثمَّ تقولُ مَنْطَلِقٌ؛ وكَذلكَ الألِفُ والياءُ قد تكونانِ للتَّذَكّر، انتَهَى.
(الخامسُ عَشَرَ: واوُ) الصِّلَةِ و (القَوافِي) ، كَقَوْلِه:
قِفْ بالدِّيار الَّتِي لم يَعْفُها القِدَمُو فوُصِلَتْ ضمَّةُ الْمِيم بواوٍ ثَمَّ بهَا وَزْنُ البَيْتِ.
(السَّادسُ عَشَرَ: واوُ الإشْباعِ كالبُرْقُوع) والمُعْلُوقِ، والعربُ تَصِلُ الضمَّةَ بالواوِ. وحَكَى الفرَّاءُ: أُنْظُور فِي مَوْضِعِ أَنْظُر؛ وأنْشَدَ:
مِن حَيْثُ مَا سَلَكُوا أَدْنُو فأَنْظُورُ وَقد ذُكِرَ فِي الرَاءِ، وأنْشَدَ أَيْضاً:
لَوْ أنَّ عَمْراً هُمَّ أَن يَرْقُودا
فانْهَضْ فشُدَّ المِئْزَرَ المَعْقُوداأَرادَ: أنْ يَرْقُد فأَشْبَعَ الضمَّةَ ووَصَلَها بالواوِ ونَصَبَ يَرْقُودَ على مَا يُنْصَبُ بِهِ الفِعْلُ.
(السَّابعُ عَشَرَ: مَدُّ الاسْمِ بالنِّداءِ) كَقَوْلِهِم: يَا قُورْطُ، يُريدُ قُرْطاً، فمدُّوا ضمَّة القافِ بالواوِ ليَمْتَدَّ الصَّوْتَ بالنِّداءِ.
(الثَّامنُ عَشَرَ: الواوُ المُحَوَّلَةُ) نَحْو: (طُوبَى أَصْلُها طُيْبَى) قُلِبَتِ الياءُ واواً لانْضِمام الطاءِ قَبْلَها وَهِي مِن طابَ يَطِيبُ، ومِن ذَلِك واوُ المُوسِرِينَ مِن أَيْسَرَ. ومِن أَقْسامِ الواوِ المُحوَّلةِ: واوُ الجَزْمِ المُرْسَلِ كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {ولَتَعْلُنَّ عُلُوًّا كَبِيرا} فأُسْقِطَتِ الواوُ لالْتِقاءِ السَّاكِنَينِ لأنَّ قَبْلَها ضمَّةً تَخْلُفها؛ وَمِنْهَا: واوُ الجَزْمِ المُنْبَسِطِ كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {لَتُبْلَوُنَّ فِي أَمْوالِكُم} فَلم تَسْقُطِ الواوُ وحَرَّكُوها لأنَّ قَبْلَها فتْحةً لَا تكونُ عِوَضاً عَنْهَا. قالَ الأزْهري: هَكَذَا رَواهُ المُنْذرِي عَن أَبي طالِبٍ النحوّي.
(التَّاسعُ عَشَرَ: واواتُ الأَبْنِيَةِ كالجَوْرَبِ والتَّوْرَبِ) للتُّرابِ والجَدْوَلِ والحَشْوَرِ وَمَا أَشْبَهَها.
(العِشْرونَ: واوُ الوَقْتِ: وتَقْرُبُ مِن واوِ الحالِ) كَقَوْلِك: (اعْمَلْ وأَنْتَ صَحِيحٌ) ، أَي فِي وقْتِ صحَّتِكَ والآنَ وأَنْتَ فارِغٌ.
(الحادِي والعِشْرونَ: واوُ النِّسْبَةِ: كأَخَوِيَ فِي النِّسْبَةِ إِلَى أَخٍ) ، بفَتْح الهَمْزةِ والخاءِ وكَسْر الواوِ، وَهَكَذَا كانَ يَنْسبُه أَبو عَمْرِو بنُ العَلاءِ، وَكَانَ يَنْسبُ إِلَى الزِّنازِنَوِيٌّ، وَإِلَى أُخْتٍ أُخَوِيٌّ بضمِّ الهَمْزةِ، وَإِلَى ابنِ بَنَوِيٌّ، وَإِلَى عالِيَةِ الحجازِ عُلْوِيٌّ، وَإِلَى عَشِيَّة عَشَوِيٌّ، وَإِلَى أَبٍ أَبَوِيٌّ.
(الثَّاني والعِشْرونَ: واوُ عَمْرٍ و) : زِيدَتْ (لتَفْرِقَ بَيْنه وبينَ عُمَرَ) فِي الرَّفْعِ والخَفْضِ وَفِي النّصْبِ تَسْقُطُ تقولُ: رأَيْتُ عَمْراً لأنّه حَصَلَ الأمْنُ مِن الالْتِباسِ، وزِيدَتْ فِي عَمْرٍ ودُونَ عُمَر لأنَّ عُمَرَ أثْقَلُ مِن عَمْرٍ و.
(الثَّالثُ والعِشْرونَ: الواوُ الفارِقَةُ) : وَهِي كلُّ واوٍ دَخَلَتْ فِي أَحَدِ الحَرْفَيْن المُشْتَبَهَيْن تَفْرقُ بَيْنه وبينَ المُشْبَه لَهُ فِي الخَطِّ (كواوِ أُولئِكَ وأُولَى لئَلاَّ يَشْتَبِه بإِلَيْكَ وَإِلَى) ، كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {أُولئِكَ على هُدًى من رَبِّهم} ، وَقَوله تَعَالَى: {غَيْرُ أُولي الضَّرَرِ} زِيدَتْ فيهمَا الواوُ فِي الخَطِّ ليَفْرقَ بَيْنهما وبينَ مَا شَاكَلهما فِي الصُّورَةِ.
(الَّرابعُ والعِشْرونَ: واوُ الهَمْزةِ فِي الخَطِّ) واللّفْظِ، فأَمَّا الخَطّ (كهذهِ نِساؤُكَ وشاؤُكَ) صُوِّرَتِ الهَمْزةُ واواً لضمَّتها، (و) أَمَّا (فِي اللَّفْظِ: كحَمْراوانِ وسَوْداوانِ) وَمثل قَوْلك: أُعِيذُ بأَسْماواتِ اللهاِ وأَبْناواتِ سَعْدٍ، وَمثل السَّمواتِ وَمَا أَشْبَهها.
(الخامسُ والعِشْرونَ: والنِّداءِ والنُّدْبةِ) ، الأوَّل كوازَيْد، وَالثَّانِي كواغُرْبَتاهْ، وَقد تقدَّمَ. وَفِي التكملةِ: وَهِي غَيْرُ واوُ النُّدْبة. فتأَمَّل.
(السَّادسُ والعِشْرون: واوِ الحالِ) ، كَقَوْلِك: (أَتَيْتُه والشمسُ طالِعَةٌ) ، أَي فِي حالِ طُلوعِها، وَمِنْه قَوْله تَعَالَى: {إِذْ نادَى وَهُوَ مَكْظُومٌ} ، ومَثَّل الجَوْهرِي لواوِ الحالِ بقولِهم: قُمْتُ وأَصُكّ وَجْهَه، أَي قُمْتُ صاكًّا وَجْهَه، وكقولهم: قُمْتُ والناسُ قُعُودٌ.
(السَّابعُ والعِشْرونَ: واوُ الصَّرْفِ) : قَالَ الفرَّاء: (وَهُوَ أَنْ تأْتي الواوُ مَعْطوفَةً على كَلامٍ فِي أَوَّلهِ حادِثَةٌ لَا تَسْتَقيمُ إعادتُها على مَا عُطِفَ عَلَيْهَا كقولهِ) ، أَي الشاعرِ، وَهُوَ المُتَوكِّلُ اللَّيْثي:
(لَا تَنْهَ عَن خُلُقٍ وتأْتيَ مِثْلَهُ (عارٌ عَلَيْك إِذا فَعَلْتَ عَظِيمُ (فإنَّه لَا يجوزُ إعادَةُ: وتَأْتي مِثْلَه على تَنْهَ) ؛ هَكَذَا فِي النسخِ، ونَصّ الفرّاء أَلا تَرَى أَنَّه لَا يجوزُ إعادَةُ (لَا) على (وتَأْتي مِثْلَه) ، فلذلكَ (سُمِّيَ صَرْفاً إِذْ كَانَ مَعْطوفاً وَلم يَسْتَقِمْ أَن يُعادَ فِيهِ الحادِثُ الَّذِي فِيمَا قَبْلَهُ) .
وممَّا يُسْتدركُ عَلَيْهِ:
واوُ الإعْرابِ: كَمَا فِي الأسْماءِ السِّتَّةِ.
وبمعْنَى إِذْ نَحْو: لَقِيتُكَ وأَنْتَ شابٌّ، أَي إِذْ أَنتَ، وَعَلِيهِ حملَ قَوْله تَعَالَى: {وطائِفَة قد أَهَمَّتْهم} ، أَي إِذْ طائِفَة.
وللتَّفْصِيل: كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {ومِنْكَ ومِن نُوح} ، {ونَخْلٍ ورُمَّانٍ} .
وتَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهَا أَلِفُ الاسْتِفْهامِ: كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {أَو عَجِبْتُم أَنْ جاءَكُم ذِكْرٌ مِن رَبِّكم} ، كَمَا نقولُ أَفَعَجِبْتم؛ نقلَهُ الجَوْهرِي؛ وكذلكَ قولهُ تَعَالَى: {أَو لم يَنْظُرُوا} ، {أَوَ لم يَسِيرُوا} .
وللتِّكْرار: كَقَوْلِه تَعَالَى: {حافِظُوا على الصَّلواتِ والصَّلاةِ الوُسْطَى} .
وَمِنْهَا الواواتُ الَّتِي تدخُلُ فِي الأجْوبةِ فتكونُ جَواباً مَعَ الجَوابِ وَلَو حُذِفَتْ كانَ الجَوابُ مُكْتَفِياً بنَفْسِه؛ أنْشَدَ الفرَّاء:
حَتَّى إِذا قَلَتْ بُطُونَكُمُ
ورَأَيْتُمُ أَبْناءَكُم شَبُّواوقَلَبْتُمُ ظَهْرَ المِجَنِّ لَنا
إنَّ اللَّئِيمَ العاجِزُ الخَبُّأَرادَ: قَلَبْتُم. ومِثْلُه فِي الكَلامِ: لمَّا أَتانِي وأَثِبُ عَلَيْهِ، كأنَّه قَالَ: وَثَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ، وَهَذَا لَا يجوزُ إلاَّ مَعَ لمَّا وَحَتَّى إِذا.
وَمِنْهَا الواوُ الدائِمَةُ: وَهِي كلُّ واوٍ تلابسُ الجزاءَ ومَعْناها الدَّوامُ كَقَوْلِك: زُرْني وأَزُورَكَ وأَزُورُكَ، بالنَّصْبِ والرَّفْع، فالنَّصْبُ على المُجازاةِ، ومَنْ رَفَعَ فمعْناهُ زِيارَتَكَ عليَّ واجبةٌ أُدِيمُها لكَ على كلِّ حالٍ.

(TA.) إِذَا

↓ تَرَدَّى, in the Kur [xcii. 11], means When he falls into the abyss of the fire [of Hell]: (T, * TA:) or into the cavity of the grave: or into the lowest depth of Hell: or when he perishes: (Bd:) or when he dies. (T.) b3: And رَدَى He (a man) went away. (K.) You say, مَا أَدْرِى أَيْنَ رَدَى I know not whither he went away, or has gone away. (S.) A2: رَدَاهُ, (S, M, K,) aor. ـْ (M,) inf. n. رَدْىٌ, (TK,) He broke it; (M, K;) namely, a thing with a stone: (M:) or he beat it, [or battered it,] namely, a stone with a piece of rock, or with a pickaxe, in order to break it. (S.) b2: And He dashed himself against him, or knocked against him, (S, K, TA,) like as the pickaxe knocks against the stone.

[It is also said in the T, with reference to مِرْدَاةٌ, as signifying a large stone with which other stones are beaten, or battered, الرَّدْىُ إِنَّمَا هُوَ رَفْعٌ بِهَا وَرَمْىٌ بِهَا; but I think that رَفْعٌ is a mistranscription for دَفْعٌ; and that the meaning intended to be expressed by these words is, that رَدْىٌ signifies The thrusting with a مِرْدَاة; and the throwing it, or with it.] b4: [Hence, app.,] رَدَى said of a horse, (As, ISk, T, S, M, K,) aor. ـْ (As, ISk, T, S, K,) inf. n. رَدْىٌ and رَدَيَانٌ; (ISk, S, M, K;) and رَدَا, (K and TA in art. ردو, [in the CK, و is omitted before the word لُغَةٌ in that art.,]) aor. ـْ (TA;) [and, accord. to Freytag, ↓ ارتدى is used in the same sense by Jereer;] He beat, or battered, the ground, (رَجَمَ الأَرْضَ, As, ISk, T, S, ISk, T, S, M, K,) with his hoofs, (M, K, TA,) in running, (As, T,) or in going along, and in running, (M,) or in going a pace between running and vehement walking: (ISk, S:) or رَدَيَانٌ signifies the same as تَقْرِيبٌ: (Az, T, M: [see 2 in art. قرب:]) or it is [a manner of going] between running and walking: (K:) or the running (T, S, M) of the horse (T) or of the ass (S, M) between his آرِىّ [or place of confinement, or the loop to which he is tied,] and his مُتَمَعَّك [or place of rolling upon the ground]; (T, S, M;) thus explained by El-Munteji' Ibn-Nebhán, (T, S,) to As. (S.) In the K, رَجَمَتْ is erroneously put for رَجَمَ; being app. taken from the M, in which it refers to horses; [not to a single horse;] as does also the pronoun in بِحَوَافِرِهَا, in the same portion of the passage in the K and in the M. (TA.) Accord. to Az, this is from رَدَيَانُ الجَوَارِى, explained in what follows. (Ham p. 221.) b5: You say, رَدَتِ الجَارِيَةُ The girl raised one leg and went along upon the other, in play; (K, TA;) and so ↓ اِرْتَدَت: (TA:) and الجَوَارِى يُرْدِينَ, inf. n. رَدَيَانٌ; (M;) or ↓ يَرْتَدِينَ; (T;) the girls played, (T, M,) raising one leg, (M,) or one of them raising one leg, (T,) and going along upon the other: (T, M:) or رَدَيَانُ الجَوَارِى signifies the girls' playing in which one of them raises one leg and steps with the other two steps, and then puts it down and raises the other, doing thus several times. (Az, Ham p. 221.) And رَدَى الغُلَامُ The boy raised one leg and leaped, or jumped, [or hopped,] with the other. (S.) And رَدَى الغُرَابُ, (M, K,) aor. ـْ (T,) The crow, or raven, raised one leg and hopped on the other; or leaped along. (T, M, K.) A3: رَدَتْ غَنَمِى My sheep, or goats, increased, or exceeded; as also ↓ أَرْدَتْ. (Fr, M, K.) b2: And رَدَيْتُ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ and ↓ ارديت I exceeded the thing. (M.) And عَلَى غَيْرِهِ ↓ اردى

It exceeded another thing; as also اردأ [q. v.] (M in art. ردأ.) And رَدَيْتُ عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ, (S, M, *) and الثَّمَانِينَ, (M,) and ↓ ارديت, (S,) I exceeded [the age of fifty, and eighty]. (S, M. *) 2 ردّاهُ, (Msb, K,) inf. n. تَرْدِيَةٌ, (Msb,) He made him to fall, or threw him down, (Msb, K,) into a deep hollow, or cavity, or pit, (Msb,) or into a well; as also ↓ ارداهُ. (K.) He (God) overthrew him; as also ↓ ارداهُ. (M.) A2: رَدَّيْتُهُ, inf. n. as above, I clad him with a رِدَآء [q. v.]. (S.) 3 رَادَيْتُ عَن القَوْم, (S, K. *) inf. n. مُرَادَاةٌ, (S,) I contended in throwing stones in defence of the people, or party. (S, K. *) A2: راداهُ, (T, S, M, K,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) is also syn. with رَاوَدَهُ [He endeavoured to turn him; or to turn him by blandishment, or by deceitful arts; or to entice him to turn]; (S, M, K;) formed from the latter by transposition; (S;) or دَاوَرَهُ [which means the same]; عَلَى الأَمْرِ [to the thing, or affair]: (T as on the authority of A 'Obeyd:) and دَارَاهُ [which means the same; or he treated him with gentleness, or blandishment; soothed, coaxed, wheedled, or cajoled, him; or he deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, him; or endeavoured, or desired, to do so]; (S, M, K; the first as on the authority of A 'Obeyd;) or, accord. to AA, i. q. دَاجَاهُ and دَالَاهُ and فَانَاهُ [all of which are syn. with دَارَاهُ]. (T.) 4 ارداهُ He (i. e. God, M, or another, S, M *) caused him to perish; or destroyed him. (S, M, K.) Hence, (M,) in the Kur [xxxvii. 54], إِنْ كِدْتَ لَتُرْدِينِ Verily thou almost causedst me to perish, or destroyedst me. (T, M. *) b2: See also 2, in two places. b3: Also He made him (i. e. a horse) to go in the manner signified by the verb رَدَى [q. v., meaning, beating, or battering, the ground, &c.]: so accord. to the M and K, except that, in both, the fem. pronoun is used, in the M referring to horses, and in the K improperly referring to a single horse. (TA.) b4: See also 1, last four sentences.5 تردّى: see 1, second and third sentences, in four places. b2: He was, or became, overthrown. (M.) A2: Also, and ↓ ارتدى, He put on, or clad himself with, or wore, a رِدَآء [q. v.]: (S, K: but in the latter the verbs are fem. [as said of a woman]:) or so تردّى بِرِدَآءٍ and بِهِ ↓ ارتدى. (M, Msb.) b2: And تردّى بِسَيْفِهِ, and ↓ ارتدى, (assumed tropical:) He hung upon himself his sword, putting its suspensory belt or cord upon his neck or shoulder; syn. تَقَلَّدَهُ. (M.) b3: And تردّت الجَارِيَةُ (assumed tropical:) The girl, or young woman, put on, or decked herself with, a وِشَاح [q. v.], which is also called رِدَآء. (T, K.) 8 ارتدى: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in three places.

A2: See also 5, in three places: and see an ex. voce رِدَآءٌ b2: [Hence,] اِرْتَدَانِى He carried me, or bore me, upon his shoulder, in the place of the رِدَآء. (Ham p. 471.) رَدًى an inf. n. of رَدِىَ [q. v.]. (S, M, Msb, K.) A2: Also Excess, redundance, or superfluity; syn. زِيَادَةٌ: so in the saying, مَا بَلَغْتُ رَدَى عَطِيَّتِكَ, i. e. I have not attained to thy excess, &c., in thy gift: and يُعْجِبُنِى رَدَى قَوْلِكَ The excess of thy saying pleases me: and so in the saying of Kutheiyir, لَهُ عَهْدُ وُدٍّ لَمْ يَكَدَّرْ يَزِينُهُ رَدَى قَوْلِ مَعْرُوفٍ حَدِيثٍ وَمُزْمِنِ meaning [He has a covenant of love, or affection, into which he has entered, which has not been sullied, and] which excess of kind speech, on his part, [recent and of long duration,] adorns: (T:) or, [as ISd cites the verse,] قَوْلِ مَعْرُوفٍ ↓ رَدِى

&c.: [and he adds,] it is said, in explanation thereof, that رَدِى means زِيَادَة; and I think that it is an inf. n., of the measure فَعِلٌ, like ضَحِكٌ and حَبِقٌ, or a subst. put in the place of an inf. n. (M.) A3: See also رَدَاةٌ.

رَدٍ [originally رَدِىٌ] Perishing; (IAar, T, S, M, K;) applied to a man: fem. رَدِيَةٌ. (S, K.) A2: See also the next preceding paragraph.

رِدْيَةٌ A mode, or manner, of wearing the رِدَآء: (S, M, * Msb: *) like رِكْبَةٌ from الرُّكُوبُ, and جِلْسَةٌ from الجُلُوسُ: (S:) you say, هُوَ حَسَنُ الرِّدْيَةِ [He is comely in respect of the manner of wearing the ردآء] (S, M, Msb.) رَدَاةٌ A rock; or piece of rock; or great mass of stone, or of hard stone: (Fr, T, S, K:) pl. رَدَيَاتٌ (Fr, T) and [coll. gen. n.] ↓ رَدًى. (S, K.) رِدَآءٌ A certain garment; (S, Msb;) a kind of مِلْحَفَة [or outer wrapping garment], (M, K,) well known; (K;) one of the garments that are not cut and sewed; (Mgh in art. قطع, and MF voce إِزَارٌ;) [being of a single piece;] covering the upper half of the body; or lying upon the shoulders and back; (MF voce إِزَارٌ;) or falling upon the belly and there ending: (TA voce صِفْرٌ:) [a رداء worn by Mohammad, “thrown over the left shoulder and wrapped round the body under the right arm,” is described as “four cubits long and two cubits and a span wide:” (Sprenger's Life of Mohammad, Part I, English ed., pp. 86 and 87:)] it is of the masc. gender, and it is not allowable to make it fem.: (IAmb, Msb:) the dual is رِدَاآنِ and رِدَاوَانِ the latter being allowable, (S, Msb,) but the former being preferable: (S:) and the pl. is أَرْدِيَةٌ: (S, M, Msb:) the رِدَآء is also called ↓ رِدَآءَةٌ, (M, K, TA, [in the CK رِداة,]) like as the إِزَار is also called إِزَارَةق; (M;) and ↓ مِرْدَاةٌ, (K, TA, in the CK مَرْداة,) of which the pl. is ↓ مَرَادٍ, (TA,) occurring in the saying, مَرَادِىَ الحَرِيرِ ↓ لَا يَرْتَدِى

وَلَا يُرَى بِسُدَّةِ الأَمِيرِ

إِلَّا لِحَلْبِ الشَّاْةِ وَالبَعِيرِ [He will not wear outer wrapping garments of silk, nor will he be seen at the porch of the commander, or prince, unless for the purpose of milking the sheep, or goat, and the camel]; (M, TA;) المَرَادِى meaning الأَرْدِيَة; (M;) but accord. to Th, it has no sing.: (M, TA:) [or] ↓ مَرَادٍ signifies waist-wrappers; syn. أُزُرٌ. (K.) b2: Hence, صِفْرُ رِدَائِهَا, in a description of Umm-Zara, in a trad., meaning (assumed tropical:) Lank in her belly; as though her ردآء were empty. (TA in art. صفر.) b3: and غَمْرُ الرِّدَآءِ (tropical:) Abounding in beneficence. (T, M, K, TA.) And عَيْشٌ غَمْرُ الرِّدَآءِ (tropical:) A life ample, or plentiful, in its means. (TA.) b4: And رِدَآءُ الشَّبَابِ (assumed tropical:) The beauty, and softness, tenderness, or delicateness, of youth. (T.) b5: And رِدَآءُ الشَّمْسِ (assumed tropical:) The light, (M,) or beauty and light, (T,) of the sun. (T, M.) b6: رِدَآءٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A sword; (T, M, K;) [ISd says,] I think, as being likened to the garment thus called; (M;) [i. e.] because it is hung, by its suspensory cords, upon the neck and shoulder [like that garment]. (T.) [See also مِرْدًى, near the end of the paragraph.] Mutemmem says, لَقَدْ كَفَّنَ المِنْهَالُ تَحْتَ رِدَائِهِ فَتًى غَيْرَ مِبْطَانِ العَشِيَّاتِ أَرْوَعَا [Verily El-Minhál has shrouded beneath his sword a young man not voracious in the evenings, when the chief meal is eaten, one who excited the admiration of the beholder]: for El-Minhál had slain his [the poet's] brother Málik; and when a man slew another who was a celebrated man, he used to lay his sword upon him, in order that his slayer might be known. (M. [But see, in relation to this verse, a long story in the Ham pp. 370-372.]) And El-Khansà says, جَعَلْتَ رِدَآءَكَ فِيهَا خِمَارَا وَدَاهِيَةٍ جَرَّهَا جَارِمٌ [And in many a calamity which a committer of a crime has brought to pass, thou hast made thy sword to be as a covering to the head]; meaning, thou hast smitten, therein, the necks of thine enemies with thy sword like the خمار [which means a woman's “muffler” and a man's “turban”]. (T.) b7: Also (assumed tropical:) A bow; (AAF, M, IAth;) because it is borne upon the shoulder, which is the place of the رداء [properly thus called]. (IAth, TA.) b8: And [for the like reason] (assumed tropical:) The [ornament called] وِشَاح [q. v., worn by women]. (T, K.) So in a verse of El-Aashà, cited voce رَقْرَقَ. (T.) b9: And (assumed tropical:) A bier; because it is borne upon the place of the رداء [properly thus called, i. e., upon the shoulder]. (Ham p. 471.) b10: And (assumed tropical:) Debt; (T, M, K;) because it is [regarded as] a thing that cleaves to the neck of the debtor, like as the رداء [properly thus called] cleaves to the shoulders of the wearer. (T.) You say, هُوَ خَفِيفُ الرِّدَآءِ, meaning (tropical:) He is little burdened in respect of debt: and also, in respect of household. (K, * TA.) [See also an ex. voce نَسَآءٌ.] b11: Also (assumed tropical:) Intelligence: b12: and (assumed tropical:) ignorance: (M, K:) both on the authority of IAar: (M:) b13: he says also that it means (assumed tropical:) anything that is the pride, or ornament, of a person; (T, M;) even, (M,) for instance, one's house, and one's father; (T, M;) or one's house and one's beast; (so in the TA;) each of these, he says, is one's رداء [or (assumed tropical:) pride]: (T:) thus, (M,) it is (assumed tropical:) a thing that graces: and (assumed tropical:) a thing that disgraces: (M, K:) so that it has two contr. meanings: thus in the K, referring to the meanings of “intelligence” and “ignorance:” but this requires consideration. (TA.) رِدَآءَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, first signification.

رَدِىٌّ: see رَدِىْءٌ, in art. ردأ

الرَّادِى The lion; (K;) because he dashes himself (يَرْدِى i. e. يَصْدِمُ) [against his prey]. (TA.) مِرْدًى A stone that is thrown; (S, K;) as also ↓ مِرْدَاةٌ: (T, S:) or a piece of rock with which date-stones are broken: (Ham p. 417:) and accord. to ISk, ↓ the latter signifies a piece of rock with which stones are broken, (S,) or with which one breaks [anything]: (M:) or a stone which the strong man can hardly, or not at all, lift with his hands; [like مِرْدَأَةٌ; (TA in art. ردأ;)] with which stones are broken; and with which they beat and soften a rugged place that they hollow out; and with which the hole of the [lizard called] ضَبّ is broken, or battered, when it is among large stones (فى قلعة [i. e. فِى قَلَعَةٍ]), which قلعة it softens and demolishes: (En-Nadr, T:) the same word (مرداة) also signifies the stone, (T,) or the piece of rock, (M,) by means of which the ضَبّ is guided to its hole: (T, M:) [and accord. to Golius, on the authority of Meyd and the Mirkát el-Loghah, the upper mill-stone:] the pl. of مِرْدَاةٌ is ↓ مَرَادٍ: (T:) and this pl. is [also] syn. with مَرَامٍ [app. as pl. of مِرْمَاةٌ, and meaning the arrows thus called; or any missiles]. (M.) Hence the prov., ↓ عِنْدَ جُحْرِ كُلِّ ضَبٍّ مِرْدَاتُهُ [Near by the hole of every dabb is its stone that is to be thrown at it, or its stone by means of which it guides itself to that hole]; applied to a thing that is near at hand, having no obstacle in the way to it; for the dabb will not be guided to its hole, when it goes forth from it and returns to it, except by means of a stone which it places as a mark to point out its hole: (T:) or كُلُّ

↓ ضَبٍّ عِنْدَهُ مِرْدَاتُهُ (S, M, Meyd) i. e. Every dabb has near by it its stone that is to be thrown at it; (S, * Meyd;) for the dabb has little knowledge, therefore it prepares not its hole save by a stone that may be a mark thereof, so that he who seeks it finds the stone that is to be thrown at the dabb near to it; therefore the prov. means that thou shouldst not feel secure from accidents, because calamities are prepared with every time, or period; and it is applied to him who exposes himself to destruction. (Meyd.) Hence also, i. e. from مِرْدًى in the first of the senses assigned to it above, (S,) or in the second of those senses, (Ham p. 417,) said of a courageous man, إِنَّهُ لَمِرْدَى حُرُوبٍ (assumed tropical:) [Verily he is like the missile of wars]; (S;) or فُلَانٌ مِرْدَى الحُرُوبِ (assumed tropical:) [Such a one is like the crushing stone of the wars]; or مِرْدَى الخُصُومِ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) he whom they throw against the antagonists and who crushes them: (Ham ubi suprà:) and هُمْ مَرَادِى الحُرُوبِ: [مَرَادٍ being pl. of مِرْدًى, as well as of مِرْدَاةٌ:] (S:) and فُلَانٌ مِرْدَى خُصُومَةٍ وَحَرْبٍ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is very patient in the endurance of contention and war. (M.) مِرْدًى is also used as meaning (assumed tropical:) A horse hard like the stone thus called; thus in a verse of 'Antarah: or it there means a horse that runs swiftly; from الرَّدَيَانُ [an inf. n. of رَدَى, q. v.]: or it is from الرَّدَى [inf. n. of رَدِىَ, and syn. therewith], meaning perdition: or it means, in that verse, [like رِدَآءٌ,] a sword, [as being an instrument of perdition,] from الرَّدَى. (Ham p. 207.) ↓ مِرْدَاةٌ, also, (S,) or نَاقَةٌ مِرْدَاةٌ, (TA,) is used as meaning (assumed tropical:) A she-camel like the stone thus called in hardness. (S, TA.) And ↓ مَرَادٍ [as pl. of مِرْدًى or of مِرْدَاةٌ] means also (assumed tropical:) The legs of camels, (Lth, T, M, K,) and of the elephant (Lth, T, K) or of elephants; as being likened to the stones thus called; (M, TA;) or because of their heaviness, and vehemence of tread. (T, TA.) b2: Also مِرْدًى, (so in the S,) or ↓ مُرْدِىٌّ, with damm [to the ل] and with shedd [to the ى], (K,) A pole with which a ship, or boat, is propelled, (S, K,) being in the hand of the sailor: (S:) pl. [of the former]

مَرَادٍ, (S,) or [of the latter] مَرَادِىُّ: (K:) in the dial. of the vulgar مِدْرى [pronounced by them مِدْرَى, without tenween, or مِدْرَا, for مِدْرَأٌ]; pl., with the art., المَدَارِى [and vulgarly pronounced مَدَارِى also without the art.]. (TA.) مِرْدَاةٌ, and its pl. مَرَادٍ (which is also pl. of مِرْدًى): see the next preceding paragraph, in seven places: b2: and see also رِدَآءٌ, in three places.

مُرْدِىٌّ: see مِرْدًى, last sentence.

اِمْرَأَةٌ هَيْفَآءُ المُرَدَّى A woman lank, or slender, in the place of the [ornament called] وِشَاح [q. v.]. (T.) المُتَرَدِّيَةُ, in the Kur v. 4, means That which falls from a mountain, or into a well, or from an elevated place, and dies. (T.) The sheep or goat thus termed is forbidden [to be eaten] because it has died without having been slaughtered according to the law. (Msb.)

حك

(K.) b2: حَكَيْتُ الشَّىْءَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, I did the like of the thing; as, for instance, another person's art: I imitated it; or emulated it: as also حَكَوْتُهُ, aor. ـُ (Msb.) One is related to have said, لَا أَحْكُو كَلَامَ رَبِّى, meaning I will not imitate, or emulate, the words of my Lord. (ISk, Msb.) And you say, حَكَيْتُ فُلَانًا; and ↓ حَاكَيْتُهُ, (K,) inf. n. مُحَاكَاةٌ; (TA;) [I imitated such a one;] I did the deed of such a one: (K:) or I said the like of the saying of such a one, exactly; (K, * TA;) not exceeding it: (TA:) and حَكَيْتُ فِعْلَهُ, and ↓ حَاكَيْتُهُ, I did the like of his deed: (S:) but in relation to what is had, foul, or unseemly, the latter verb is most used.

(S.) A2: حَكَى and ↓ احكى He tightened a knot; (S, K;) and made it strong: (IKtt, TA:) dial. vars. of حَكَأَ and أَحْكَأَ. (S.) 3 حَاْكَىَ see 1, in four places.4 أَحْكَىَ see 1, last sentence.

A2: احكى عَلَيْهِمْ i. q. أَبَرَّ [He overcame them; &c.]. (Sgh, K.) 8 احتكى أَمْرِى My affair was, or became, in a firm, solid, sound, or good, state. (K.) b2: احتكى ذٰلِكَ فِى صَدْرِى That came into my mind. (Fr, TA.) [See also اِحْتَكَأَ; and see اِحْتَكَّ in the first paragraph of art. حك.]

اِمْرَأَةٌ حَكِىٌّ A calumnious woman; (K;) one who repeats the sayings of others in a calumnious manner. (TA.) حِكَايَةٌ inf. n. of 1. (S, Msb, K.) b2: [Used as a simple subst., it signifies A narrative, story, or tale:] pl. حَكَايَاتٌ. (TA.) b3: As a conventional term in grammar, [meaning Imitation, or conforming, in language,] it is of two kinds: حِكَايَةُ جُمْلَةٍ [The imitation of a proposition, or phrase], and حِكَايَةُ مُفْرَدٍ [The imitation of a single word]: the former is of two sorts; one of which is termed حِكَايَةُ مَلْفُوظٍ [The imitation of a thing uttered], whereof قَالُوا الحَمْدُ للّٰهِ [They said, “Praise be to God,” (Kur vii. 41,)] is an ex.; and the other, حِكَايَةُ مَكْتُوبٍ [The imitation of a thing written], whereof قَرَأْتُ عَلَى فَصِّهِ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ [I read upon his ring-stone, “Mohammad is the Apostle of God,”] is an ex.: and the latter kind, also, (that of a single word,) is of two sorts; one of which is with the interrogative أَىٌّ or مَنْ, as when, to one who says, رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا [pronounced رَجُلَا, I saw a man], you say, أَيَّا [What (man)?], or مَنَا [Whom?], and the like, which sort is agreeable with a common rule; the other sort being without an interrogative, as the saying of one of the Arabs, to one who said, هَاتَانِ تَمْرَتَانِ [These are two dates], دَعْنَا مِنْ تَمْرَتَانِ [Abstain thou from troubling us about two dates], which sort is anomalous. (El-Ashmoonee's Expos. of the Alfeeyeh of Ibn-Málik.) [حِكَايَةُ صَوْتٍ signifies A word imitative of a sound; an onomatopœia: see اِسْمُ صَوْتٍ

(TA in art. ربع.) b2: سانهت النَّخْلَةُ The palm-tree bore one year and not another; (As, K;) as also عَاوَمَت. (As, TA.) 4 أَسْنَهَ In this form of the verb, the final radical letter is changed into ت, so that they say أَسْنَتُوا, meaning They experienced drought, or barrenness. (TA. [See also art. سنت.]) 5 تَسَنَّهْتُ عِنْدَهُ, (S,) and تَسَنَّيْتُ عنده, (S, Msb,) I remained, stayed, dwelt, or abode, with him, or at his abode, a year: (Msb:) both signify the same. (TA.)

b2: تسنّهت النَّخْلَةُ (assumed tropical:) The palm-tree underwent the lapse of years; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ سَنِهَت: (S:) and in like manner one says of other things. (Msb.) b3: تسنّه said of food and of beverage, (Fr, S, TA,) (assumed tropical:) It became altered [for the worse]; as also ↓ سَنِهَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. سَنَهٌ: (TA:) or it became altered [for the worse] by the lapse of years: (Fr, S, TA:) and التَّسَنُّهُ in relation to bread and beverage &c. means the becoming mouldy, or musty, or spoiled. (S: and so in some copies of the K and in the TA: in other copies of the K, السَّنِهُ, like كَتِف, is put in the place of التَّسَنُّهُ; and المُتَكَرِّجُ in the place of the explanation التَّكَرُّجُ.) فَانْظُرْ إِلَى طَعَامِكَ وَشَرَابِكَ لَمْ يَتَسَنَّهْ, in the Kur [ii. 261], means (assumed tropical:) [But look at thy food and thy beverage,] it has not become altered [for the worse] by the lapse of years: (Fr, S, TA:) Az says that this is the right way of reading, by pronouncing the ه in يتسنّه in pausing after it and in continuing without pausing: Ks used to suppress the ه in the latter case and to pronounce it in the former: and Aboo-'Amr EshSheybánee says that the original form [of يَتَسَنَّ] is يَتَسَنَّنْ; the like change being made in it as is made in تَظَنَّيْتُ [for تَظَنَّنْتُ] and in قَصَّيَتُ أَظْفَارِى

[for قَصَّصْتُ اظفارى]. (TA. [See also 5 in art. سنو and سنى, last sentence.]) سَنَةٌ a word of which the final radical letter is rejected, (S, Msb,) and of which there are two dial. vars., (Msb,) being, accord. to some, originally سَنْهَةٌ, (S, Msb,) like جَبْهَةٌ (S) or سَجْدَةٌ, (Msb,) and accord to others, سَنْوةٌ, (S, * Msb,) like شَهْوَةٌ, and upon each of these originals are founded modifications of the word, (Msb,) therefore it is mentioned in the K [and S and other lexicons] in the present art. and again in art. سنو, (TA,) A year; syn. حَوْلٌ; (Msb;) or عَامٌ: (M, K:) or, as Suh says, in the R, the سَنَة is longer than the عَام; the latter word being applied to the [twelve] Arabian months [collectively], and thus differing from the former word: (TA:) with the Arabs it consists of four seasons, mentioned before [in art. زمن, voce زَمَنٌ]: but sometimes it is tropically applied to (tropical:) a single فَصْل [or quarter]; as in the saying, دَامَ المَطَرُ السَّنَةَ كُلَّهَا, meaning [The rain continued] during the فَصْل [or quarter, all of it]: (Msb:) [see more in art. سنو and سنى:] the dim. is ↓ سُنَيْهَةُ (S, Msb) accord. to those who make the original of سَنَةٌ to be سَنْهَةٌ, (Msb,) and ↓ سُنَيَّةٌ (S, Msb) accord. to those who make the original of سَنَةٌ to be سَنْوَةٌ; (Msb;) and some say سُنَيْنَةٌ, but this is rare: (TA:) the pl. is سَنَهَاتٌ (Msb, K) accord. to those who make the original of سَنَةٌ to be سَنْهةٌ, (Msb,) and سَنَوَاتٌ (Msb, K) accord. to those who make the original of سَنَةٌ to be سَنْوَةٌ; (Msb;) and سِنُونَ also, (S, Msb, K,) like the masc. perfect pl., (Msb,) [agreeably with a rule applying to other cases of this kind,] with kesr, to the س, (S, TA,) and سِنِينَ [in the accus. and gen. cases], (Msb, TA,) so that one says, هٰذِهِ سِنُونَ [These are years], and رَأَيْتُ سِنِينَ [I saw years], (TA,) and the ن is elided when it is prefixed to another noun, governing the latter in the gen. case, (Msb,) and some say سُنُونَ, with damm to the س; (S, TA;) and in one dial., the ى is retained in all the cases, and the ن is made a letter of declinability, with tenween when the word is indeterminate, [so that one says سِنِينٌ,] and is not elided when the word is prefixed to another noun, governing the latter in the gen. case, because it is [regarded as] one of the radical letters of the word; and of this dial. is the saying of the Prophet, اَللّٰهُمَّ اجْعَلْهَا عَلَيْهِمْ سِنِينًا كَسِنِينِ يُوسُفَ [O God, make them to be to them years like the years of Joseph]; (Msb; [but in my copy of the Mgh, I find كَسِنِى يُوسُفَ;]) or with respect to سِنِينٌ, like مِئِينٌ, with refa [and tenween], there are two opinions; one is, that it is of the measure فِعْلِينٌ, like غِسْلِينٌ, with a rejection [of one letter], though this is an anomalous pl., for there sometimes occurs among pls. that which has no parallel, as عِدًى, and this is the opinion of Akh; the other is, that it is of the measure فَعِيلٌ, changed to فِعِيلٌ because of the kesreh of the second letter; the pl. being in some instances of the measure فَعِيلٌ, like كَلِيبٌ and عَبِيدٌ; but he who holds this opinion makes its final ن to be a substitute for و, and that of مِائَةٌ a substitute for ى: (S:) you may also suppress the tenween in سِنِينٌ; [in which case it seems that one says سِنِينَ in the nom. case (assimilating it to سِنُونَ) as well as in the accus. and the gen.; like as one does in the instances of بُرِين and بِرِين, pls. of بُرَةٌ, accord. to the K, though, as I have shown in art. برو, there is some doubt on this point;] but the suppression of the tenween in سِنِينٌ is more rare than its pronunciation: (I' Ak p. 18:) and another pl. is سُنِىٌّ, [originally سُنُوٌّ,] of the measure فُعُولٌ. (Er-Rághib, TA in art. سنو.) The phrase ثَلٰثَ مِائَةٍ سِنِينَ, in the Kur [xviii. 24], is said by Akh to be for ثَلٰثَمِائَةٍ مِنَ السِّنِينَ [Three hundred of years]: and he says that if the سِنُون be an explicative of the مِائَة, it is in the gen. case [to agree with مِائَةٍ]; and if an explicative of the ثَلٰث, it is in the accus. case [to agree with ثَلٰثَ]. (S. [See also Bd on this phrase; and see De Sacy's Ar. Gr., 2nd ed., i. 423.]) [لِسَنَةٍ, relating to an animal or a plant or the like, means To the completion of a year: and لِسَنَتِهِ, to the completion of his, or its, year; i. e. in his, or its, first year.] And one says, ↓ لَقِيتُهُ مُنْذُ سُنَيَّاتٍ [I met him some years ago; three or more, to ten, years ago]: a phrase like لَقِيتُهُ ذَاتَ العُوَيْمِ. (Az, TA in art. عوم.) And ↓ سُنَيَّةٌ is a dim. of enhancement, of سَنَةٌ: one says سُنَيَّةٌ حَمْرَآءُ A severe year of drought or barrenness or dearth: (TA:) and البِيضِ ↓ وَقَعُوا فِى السُّنَيَّاتِ [They lapsed into the severe years of scantiness of herbage]: these were years that pressed hard upon the people of ElMedeeneh. (K, TA.) b2: سَنَةٌ [alone] also signifies (tropical:) Drought, or barrenness: (Msb, K, TA:) or vehement, or intense, drought: (TA in art. سنو:) an instance of a noun used especially in one of its senses, like دَابَّةٌ applied to “ a horse,” and مَالٌ applied to “ camels: ” pl., in this, as in the former, sense, سَنَهَاتٌ [and سَنَوَاتٌ] and سِنُونَ and سِنِينٌ. (TA.) One says of a land (أَرْضٌ), أَصَابَتْهَا السَّنَةُ (tropical:) Drought, or barrenness, befell it. (Msb.) And in like manner one says of people, أَصَابَتْهُمُ السَّنَهُ (tropical:) [Drought, &c., befell them]. (TA.) A seeker of herbage and of a place in which to alight was sent to a tract, and found it dried up by want of rain, and when he returned, being asked respecting it, he said, السَّنَةُ, meaning (tropical:) Drought, &c. [has befallen it]. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ أَعِنِّى عَلَى مُضَرَبِالسَّنَةِ, i. e. (tropical:) [O God, aid me against Mudar] by drought &c. (TA.) A2: It is also [used as an epithet,] applied to land (أَرْضٌ), as meaning (tropical:) Affected with drought, or barrenness; (As, S, K;) as also ↓ سَنْهَآءُ and سَنْوَآءُ. (Msb.) One says likewise, هٰذِهِ بِلَادٌ سِنِينٌ (tropical:) These are countries, or tracts, affected with drought &c.: and Et-Tirimmáh says بِمُنْخَرَقٍ تَحِنُّ الرِّيحُ فِيهِ حَنِينَ الحُلْبِ فِى البَلَدِ السِّنِينِ (tropical:) [In a gusty tract, the wind moaning therein like the moaning of the milch ewes or goats (see حَلُوبٌ) in the country affected with drought, or the countries, &c., بَلَد being regarded as a coll. gen. n. and therefore qualified by a pl., like قَوْمٌ in the phrase قَوْمٌ كَافِرُونَ]. (TA.) سَنَهْ سَنَهْ, also pronounced with teshdeed to the ن: see سَنًا, in art. سنو and سنى, last sentence.

طَعَامٌ سَنِهٌ (assumed tropical:) [Food, or wheat,] that has undergone the lapse of years; (Az, K;) as also سَنٍ. (Az, TA.) b2: See also مُتَسَنِّهٌ.

نَخْلَةٌ سَنْهَآءُ (assumed tropical:) A palm-tree that bears one year and not another: (S, K:) or a palm-tree affected by a year of drought. (S.) And سَنَةٌ سَنْهَآءُ A year in which is no herbage nor rain. (TA.) b2: See also سَنَةٌ, last sentence but one.

مُتَسَنِّهٌ, applied to bread, (S, K,) and so ↓ سَنِهٌ applied to bread and to beverage &c., (CK, but see 5, third sentence,) (assumed tropical:) Mouldy, or musty, or spoiled. (S, K.)

(سنن) - في الحديث: "إنما أُنَسىَّ لِأَسُنّ"
: أي أُدفَعُ إلا النِّسيان لأَسوقَ النَّاسَ بالهِدايةِ إلا الطريقِ المستقيمِ.
وسنَنتُ الإبلَ: سُقتُها سَوقاً شديدا: أي لأُبَيِّن لهم ما يحتاجون إليه أن يَفعَلوُا إذا عَرَض لهمِ النِّسيان.
- في حديث عمر - رضي الله عنه -: "نَهَى عن السَّلَم في السِّنِّ"
يعني الرَّقيقَ والدَّوابَّ والحَيوانَ.
وقال أبو عمرو: السِّنّ: الثَّور خاصة، والأَولُ أَولَى؛ لأن السِّنّ لجميع الحيوان. - وفي حديث عمر أيضا: "رأَيتُ أباه يستَنُّ بسَيْفهِ كما يَسْتَنُّ الجَمَل".
: أي يَمرَحِ . ويقال: فلان يَستَنُّ الريحَ والسَّيلَ إذا كان على جِهَتِهِما وممَرِّهما، واستَنَّ على وَجْه واحدٍ: أي مَضىَ.
- وفي الحديث : "أنه كان يَسْتَنّ".
الاسْتِنان: الاسْتِياك، مأخوذ من السَّنَّ.
- وفي حديث الجُمُعة وسُنَّتِها: "وأن يَسْتَنَّ".
وهو من ذلك السّنّ بالسِّواك وإمرار المِسْواك عليها.

مَلْساء ليس بها خَالٌ ولا نَدَبُ  يقال: هو أَشبَهُ به سُنَّةً ومُنَّةً وأُمَّةً: أي صورةً وقُوةَ عَقْل وقَامَةً. والمَسنُون: المصَوَّر.
- وفي الحديث: "أعْطُوا السِّنَّ حظَّها"
: أي ذوات السِّنّ وهو الرَّعْي، وقد سَنّ الإِبلَ: صَقَلها بالرَّعْىِ.
- وقول على :

: أي أنه أَمرٌ لم يَسُنَّ فِعلَه لكافَّة الأُمَّة على معنى القُربَة كالسُّنَن التي هي عبادات، ولكنه شيءٌ فَعلَه رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - لسبب خَاصٍّ؛ وهو أنه أراد أن يُرِىَ الكُفَّارَ قُوَّةَ أصحابِه وقد يَفعَل الشَّىءَ لِمعْنًى، فيَزُولُ ذلك المعنى، ويَبْقَى الفِعلُ على حاله كقَصْر الصلاة في السَّفَر للخوف، كما قال تبارك وتعالى: {فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ تَقْصُرُوا مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ إِنْ خِفْتُمْ} . ثم زال الخَوفُ وبَقِىَ القَصْر ليس بسُنَّة لكافَّة الأُمَّة ابتداءً، ولكن سُنَّت للصَّحابة، رضي الله عنهم، ثم بَقِيت للأُمَّة.
ولهذا يُفعَل في طوافٍ واحدٍ دون سَائِر الطَّوْفاَتِ.
- في حديث بَرْوعَ : "وكان زَوجُها سُنَّ في بئر".

عق

1 عَقَّ, (Msb, K, TA,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. عَقٌّ, (Mgh, O, Msb, TA,) He clave, split, slit, ripped, or rent; (Mgh, O, Msb, K, TA;) and he cut. (Mgh, O, TA.) You say, عَقَّ ثَوْبَهُ He slit, ripped, or rent, his garment. (Msb.) and عُقَّتْ تَمِيمَتُهُ فِى بَنِى فُلَانٍ [His amulet was cut off among the sons of such a one]; said of a boy when he has attained to the prime of manhood, and become strong, with a tribe; originating from the fact that as long as the boy was an infant, his mother hung upon him amulets to preserve him from the evil eye; and when he became full-grown, they were cut off from him: whence the saying of a poet, بِلَادٌ بِهَا عَقَّ الشَّبَابُ تَمِيمَتِى

وَأَوَّلُ أَرْضٍ مَسَّ جِلْدِى تُرَابُهَا [A country in which the attaining to the prime of manhood cut off my amulet, and the first land of which the dust touched my skin]. (TA.) b2: and [hence,] عَقَّتِ الرِّيحُ المُزْنَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, The wind drew forth a shower of fine rain from the مزن [or clouds containing water]; as though it rent them. (TA.) And عُقَّتِ السَّحَابَةُ The cloud poured forth its water; [as though it were rent;] and ↓ اِنْعَقَّت [means the same]; (TA;) and ↓ اعتقّت [likewise]. (O.) b3: and عَقَّ عَنْ وَلَدِهِ, (S, Msb,) or عَنِ المَوْلُودِ, (K,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb, TA) and عَقِّ, (TA,) inf. n. عَقٌّ, (S, Msb,) He slaughtered as a sacrifice (S, Msb, K, TA) for his child, (S, Msb,) or for the new-born child, (K,) a sheep or goat, (T, Msb, TA,) [generally the latter,] on the seventh day after the birth. (T, S, Msb, TA.) And He shaved the [hair termed] عَقِيقَة [q. v.] (S, TA) of his child, (S,) or of the new-born child. (TA.) b4: And عَقَّ بِالسَّهْمِ He shot the arrow towards the sky; and that arrow was called عَقِيقَةٌ; (S, O, K;) and it was the arrow of self-excuse: they used to do thus in the Time of Ignorance [on the occasion of a demand for blood-revenge]; and if the arrow returned smeared with blood, they were not content save with the retaliation of slaughter; but if it returned clean, they stroked their beards, and made reconciliation on the condition of the bloodwit; the stroking of the beards being a sign of reconciliation: the arrow, however, as IAar says, did not [ever] return otherwise than clean: (S, O:) the origin was this: a man of the tribe was slain, and the slayer was prosecuted for his blood; whereupon a company of the chief men [of the family of the slayer] collected themselves together to the heirs [who claimed satisfaction for the blood] of the slain, and offered the bloodwit, asking forgiveness for the blood; and if the heir [who claimed satisfaction and who acted for himself and his coheirs] was a strong man, impatient of injury, he refused to take the bloodwit; but if weak, he consulted the people of his tribe, and then said to the petitioners, “We have, between us and our Creator, a sign denoting command and prohibition: we take an arrow, and set it on a bow, and shoot it towards the sky; and if it return to us smeared with blood, we are forbidden to take the bloodwit, and are not content save with the retaliation of slaughter; but if it return clean, as it went up, we are commanded to take the bloodwit: ” so they made reconciliation; for this arrow never returned otherwise than clean; and thus they had an excuse in the opinion of the ignorant of them. (L, TA.) A poet (S, O, TA) of the family of the slain, said by some to be of Hudheyl, by IB to be El-As'ar El-Joafee, who was absent from this reconciliation, (TA,) says, عَقُّوا بِسَهْمٍ ثُمَّ قَالُوا صَالِحُوا يَا لَيْتَنِى فِى القَوْمِ إِذْ مَسَحُوا الِلُّحَى

[They shot an arrow towards the sky; them they said, “Make ye reconciliation: ” would that I were among the party when they stroked the beards]: (S, O, TA:) or, as some relate it, the first word is عَقَّوْا, with fet-h to the ق; which belongs to the class of unsound verbs [i. e. to art. عقى]. (S, O.) b5: One says also, عَقَّ وَالِدَهُ, (S, O, K,) or أَبَاهُ, (Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, O, Msb,) inf. n. عُقُوقٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and مَعَقَّةٌ (S, O, K) and عَقٌّ, (TA,) He was undutiful, disobedient, refractory, or ill-mannered, to his parent, or father; contr. of بَرَّهُ; (K;) he broke his compact of obedience to his parent, or father; (TA;) he disobeyed his father; and failed, or neglected, to behave to him in a good, or comely, manner. (Msb.) And عَقَّ الرَّحِمَ, (TA, and Ham p. 93,) like قَطَعَهَا [i. e. He severed the tie, or ties, of relationship, by unkind behaviour to his kindred]. (Ham ib.) and عَقَّ [alone], aor. ـُ inf. n. عُقُوقٌ, [He was undutiful, &c.; or he acted undutifully, &c.; or] he contravened, or opposed, him whom he was under an obligation to obey. (Har p. 158.) عُقُوقُ الوَالِدَيْنِ [Undutiful treatment, &c., of the two parents] is said in a trad. to be one of the great sins. (O.) And it is said in a prov., العُقُوقُ

أَحَدُ الثُّكْلَيْنِ [Undutiful treatment of a parent is one of the two sorts of being bereft of a child]: or, as some relate it, العُقُوقُ ثُكْلُ مَنْ لَمْ يَثْكَلْ [Undutiful treatment of a parent is (like) the bereavement of him who is not (really) bereft of his child]: i. e. he whom his children have treated undutifully (مِنْ عَقَّهُ وَلَدُهُ) is as though he were bereft of his children although they are living. (O.) [See also 3: and 4.] b6: Hence, from عُقُوقُ الوَالِدَيْنِ, the verb is metaphorically used in the saying, in a trad., مَثَلُكُمْ وَمَثَلُ عَائِشَةَ مَثَلُ العَيْنِ فِى الرَّأْسِ تُؤْذِى صَاحِبَهَا وَلَا يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يَعُقَّهَا إِلَّا بِالَّذِى هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَهَا (tropical:) [The similitude of you and of 'Áïsheh is that of the eye in the head, when it hurts its owner, and he cannot treat it severely save with that which is good for it: app. meaning that her severity was for the good of the objects thereof]. (TA.) A2: عَقَّ, intrans., said of lightning: see 7.

A3: عَقَّتْ said of a mare, and of an ass: see 4.

A4: عَقَّتِ الدَّلْوُ, inf. n. عَقُّ, means The bucket came up full from the well; and some of the Arabs say عَقَّت as having تَعْقِيَةٌ for its inf. n.; but it is [said to be] originally ↓ عَقَّقَت, the third ق being changed into ى, [which is then in this case suppressed,] like as they said تَظَنَّيْتُ from الظَّنُّ: [it is, however, mentioned in the TA in art. عقو also, and there expl. as meaning it rose in the well turning round: and from what here follows, it appears to mean it rose swiftly, cleaving the air:] a poet, cited by IAar, says, of a bucket, عَقَّتْ كَمَا عَقَّتْ دَلُوفُ العِقْبَانٌ meaning It clave [the air of] the well, rising swiftly, like the hastening of the swift eagle in its flight towards the prey. (TA in the present art.) 2 عَقَّّ see above, last sentence.3 عَاقَقْتُ فُلَانًا, aor. ـَ inf. n. عِقَاقٌ, I contravened, or opposed, such a one. (TA.) [See also عَقَّ وَالِدَهُ, in the latter half of the first paragraph.]4 اعقّ فُلَانٌ i. q. جَآءَ بِالعُقُوقِ [i. e. Such a one did that which was an act of undutifulness, disobedience, refractoriness, or ill manners, to his father or the like]. (S, TA.) [See also عَقَّ وَالِدَهُ, in the latter half of the first paragraph.] b2: and you say, مَا أَعَقَّهُ لِوَالِدِهِ [How undutiful, disobedient, refractory, or ill-mannered, is he to his father!]. (TA.) A2: اعقّت She (a mare, S, O, K, and an ass, TA) conceived, or became pregnant; (S, O, K;) or she did not conceive, or become pregnant, after having been covered by the stallion, or during a year or two years or some years; (K;) and ↓ عَقَّتْ, aor. ـِ (O, K, TA,) the verb being of the class of ضَرَبَ, (TA,) inf. n. عَقَاقٌ and عَقَقٌ (O, K, TA) and عُقُوقٌ, (CK, but not in other copies,) signifies the same, (O, * K, TA,) said of a mare, (O, K,) and of an ass; (O;) or عَقَاقٌ signifies pregnancy itself, as also عِقَاقٌ, (K,) and عَقَقٌ; (S, O;) or عَقَّتْ signifies she became pregnant; and اعقّت, the [hair called] عَقِيقَة grew in her belly upon the young one that she bore. (TA.) b2: Also It (a palm-tree, and a grape-vine) put forth what are termed عِقَّان [q. v.]. (S, O, K.) A3: اعقّهُ He made it bitter; (S, O, K;) namely, water; said of God; like اقعّهُ. (S, O.) and اعقّت الأَرْضُ المَآءَ The earth made the water bitter. (TA.) 7 انعقّ It became cloven, split, slit, ripped, or rent; or it clave, split, &c.; said of anything; (S, O, K, TA;) mentioned by Th as said of a garment. (TA.) b2: انعقّت السَّحَابَهُ The cloud became rent with the water. (S, O, K.) See also 1, first quarter. [And see 8.] b3: انعقّ البَرْقُ and ↓ عَقَّ [of which latter the aor. is probably يَعَقُّ, and the inf. n. عَقَقٌ, said in the K to mean اِنْشِقَاقٌ,] signify تَشَقَّقَ and اِنْشَقَّ [as though meaning The lightning became cloven]; (TA;) [but] the former is expl. as signifying the lightning was, or became, in a state of commotion (تَضَرَّبَ) in the clouds. (S, O.) [Another meaning is suggested by an explanation of عَقِيقَةٌ (q. v.) in relation to lightning.] b4: انعقّ الغُبَارُ i. q. سَطَعَ [app. as meaning The dust spread, or diffused itself]: (IF, O, K:) or اِنْشَقَّ وَسَطَعَ [became cleft, and diffused itself]. (TA.) b5: انعقّ الوَادِى The valley was, or became, deep. (TA.) A2: انعقّت العُقْدَةُ The knot became strongly, or firmly, tied. (O, * K, * TA.) 8 اعتقّ السَّحَابُ The clouds became rent, (K, TA,) and their water poured forth. (TA.) See also 1, first quarter. [And see 7.]

A2: اعتقّ السَّيْفَ He drew the sword (O, K) from its scabbard. (O.) A3: And اعتقّ [probably from عَقَّ بِالسَّهْمِ, q. v.,] He exceeded the due bounds, or was immoderate, in excusing himself. (TA.)

Q. 1 عَقْعَقَ بِصَوْتِهِ, (O, TA,) inf. n. عَقْعَقَةٌ, (S, O,) said of the عَقْعَق [or magpie], It uttered a [kind of chattering] cry, (S, * O, TA,) resembling the sound of ع and ق [or the repeated sound of عَقْ]; (O, TA;) whence its name: and said of a bird [that utters a cry of this kind] when it comes and goes. (TA.) b2: And عَقْعَقَةٌ signifies also The shaking, or being in a state of commotion, [so as to produce a kind of crackling, or rustling, sound,] of paper, and of a new garment; like قَعْقَعَةٌ [q. v.].

مَآءٌ عُقٌّ, with damm, (K, TA,) or ↓ عَقٌّ, (thus written in my copies of the S and in the O,) and ↓ عُقَاقٌ, (O, K, TA,) Bitter water: (S, O, K:) or intensely bitter water: used alike as sing. and pl.: (TA:) like قُعٌّ, (TA,) or قَعٌّ, (S, O,) and قُعَاعٌ. (O, TA.) عِقٌّ: see what next follows.

عَقَّةٌ A deep excavation, hollow, cavity, trench, or the like, in the ground; (K, TA;) as also ↓ عِقٌّ, accord. to the K, there said to be with kesr, but correctly ↓ عَقٌّ, with fet-h, [q. v.,] which signifies an elongated excavation in the ground, and is originally an inf. n.; thus in the L. (TA.) b2: And A blaze of lightning extending in an elongated form in the sky, (IDrd, O, K,) or in the side of the clouds, (A, TA,) and said to be as though it were a drawn sword. (TA.) [See also عَقِيقَةٌ.]

عُقَّةٌ A certain thing with which boys play. (L, K, TA.) عِقَّةٌ: see عَقِيقَةٌ, in the former half.

عَقَقٌ: see عَقَاقٌ. b2: It is said in the K to be syn. with عَاقٌّ; but in this sense the correct word is عُقَقٌ. (TA.) عُقَقٌ: see عُقِيقَةٌ, latter half: A2: and see also عَاقٌّ, in two places.

عُقُقٌ, as a sing. and as a pl.: see عَاقٌّ.

عَقَاقٌ is an inf. n. of عَقَّتْ said of a mare (O, K) and of an ass: (O:) or it signifies Pregnancy (AA, S, K) itself; (K;) as also ↓ عِقَاقٌ, (K,) and ↓ عَقَقٌ [which is likewise said to be an inf. n. of عَقَّتْ]. (S.) You say, أَظْهَرَتِ الأَتَانُ عَقَاقًا The she-ass manifested pregnancy. (AA, S, O.) b2: And, accord. to Esh-Shafi'ee, An embryo; or a fœtus. (TA.) A2: عَقَاقِ, like قَطَامِ, [indecl.,] is a [proper] name for العُقُوقُ [Undutifulness, disobedience, refractoriness, or ill manners, to a parent, or the like]: (K, TA:) mentioned by IB, and in the O. (TA.) عُقَاقٌ, applied to water: see عُقٌّ.

عِقَاقٌ: see عَقَاقٌ.

عَقُوقٌ, applied to a mare, (S, O, K, TA,) and to an ass, (TA,) Pregnant: (S, O, K:) or not pregnant after having been covered by the stallion, or during a year or two years or some years; (K;) or it signifies thus also; (O;) having two contr. meanings; (K;) or it is applied to one in the latter state as implying a presage of good; (O, K;) so says AHát; (O, TA;) i. e., as though they meant that she would become pregnant: (TA:) it is extr.; [as being from أَعَقَّتْ;] and one should not say ↓ مُعِقٌّ; or this is a bad dial. var.; (S, O, K;) or, accord. to AA, it is from اعقّت, and عَقُوقٌ is from عَقَّتْ: (TA:) the pl. is عُقُقٌ, and عِقَاقٌ is a pl. pl., (S, O, K,) i. e. pl. of عُقُقٌ. (S, O.) It is said in a prov., طَلَبَ الأَبْلَقَ العَقُوقَ, meaning He sought an impossible thing; because ابلق is applied to a male, and عقوق means pregnant: (S, O, and K in art. بلق) or الابلق العقوق means the dawn, because it breaks, lit, cleaves. (O, and K in art. بلق.) b2: نَوَى

العَقُوقِ means Date-stones that are easily broken, (Lth, S, O, K,) soft to be chewed; (Lth, O, K;) which are given as provender to camels, (S,) or to the pregnant thereof, in consideration of her state, wherefore they are thus called; and which are eaten, or chewed, by the old woman; but this is of the speech of the people of El Basrah, and not known by the Arabs in their desert: (Lth, O:) and sometimes they called a single date-stone of this sort ↓ عَقِيقَةٌ. (S.) A2: See also عَاقٌّ.

عَقِيقٌ Cleft, split, slit, ripped, or rent; and cut; as also ↓ مَعْقُوقٌ. (TA.) b2: And [hence] Any channel which the water of a torrent has cloven (S, O, Msb, * K) of old (Msb) and made wide: (S, O:) and a valley: (O, K:) pl. أَعِقَّةٌ (S, O, Msb, K, TA) and عَقَائِقُ. (TA.) And عَقَائِقُ signifies also Pools of water in cleft furrows: (AHn, TA:) and some say, red sands. (TA.) b3: See also عَقِيقَةٌ, in two places.

A2: Also [Carnelian;] a species of فُصُوص [or stones that are set in rings]; (S;) a sort of stone, (Msb,) or red خَرَز [meaning precious stones], (O, K,) of which فُصُوص are made; (O, Msb;) existing in ElYemen, (K, TA,) near to Esh-Shihr, said by Et-Teefáshee to be brought from mines thereof at San'à, (TA,) and on the shores of the Sea of Roomeeyeh; one kind thereof is of a turbid appearance, like water running from salted flesh-meat, and having in it faint white lines, (K, TA,) and this, Et-Teefáshee says, is what is known by the appellation الرطبى [so in my original]; the best kind is the red; then, the yellow; then, the white; and the other kinds are bad: or, as some say, the streaked (المُشَطَّب) is the best: (TA:) [I omit some absurd assertions in the K and TA respecting various virtues supposed to be possessed by this stone:] the n. un. is with ة: and the pl. is عَقَائِقُ. (O, K.) [العَقِيقُ اليَمَانِىُّ is an appel-lation applied by some to The agate.]

عَقِيقَةٌ [a subst. from عَقِيقٌ, made so by the affix ة. Hence, because cleft, or furrowed, in the earth,] A river, or rivulet. (IAar, O, K.) b2: And A fillet, or bandage, (عِصَابَةٌ,) at the time of its being rent from a garment, or piece of cloth. (IAar, O, K.) b3: And The prepuce of a boy (AO, IAar, O, K) when he is circumcised. (TA.) b4: And [app. because made of cut pieces of skin,] A [leathern water-bag such as is commonly called]

مَزَادَة. (IAar, O, K.) b5: Also The wool of a جَذَع [or sheep in or before its second year]: (S, O, K, TA:) that of a ثَنِىّ [or sheep in its third year] is called جَنِيبَةٌ: (TA:) and the hair of a young one recently born, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K, TA,) that comes forth upon his head in his mother's belly, (TA,) of human beings, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K, TA,) because it is cut off on his seventh day, (Mgh,) and of others, (Msb,) [i. e.] of beasts likewise; (S, O, K, TA;) as also ↓ عَقِيقٌ and ↓ عِقَّةٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) but A 'Obeyd says that he had not heard this last except in relation to human beings and asses: (S, O, K: *) its pl. (i. e. the pl. of عِقَّةٌ) is عِقَقٌ: (O, K:) [the pl. of عَقِيقَةٌ and عَقِيقٌ is عَقَائِقُ: a law of the Sunneh requires that the عَقِيقَة of an infant should be weighed, and its weight in silver be given to the poor: (and Herodotus, in ii. 65, mentions a similar custom as obtaining among the Ancient Egyptians:)] when the hair has once fallen from the young [by its being cut], the term عَقِيقَةٌ ceases to be applied to it: so says Lth: (O, TA:) but it occurs in a trad. applied to hair as being likened to the hair of a recently-born infant. (TA.) b6: Hence, (S, O,) it is applied also to The sheep, or goat, [generally the latter,] that is slaughtered (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K) as a sacrifice for the recentlyborn infant (S, Mgh, Msb) on the occasion of the shaving of the infant's hair (O, K) on the seventh day after his birth, (S, Msb,) and of which the limbs are divided, and cooked with water and salt, and given as food to the poor: (Lth, TA:) Z holds it to be thus called from the same word as applied to the hair: but it is said [by some] to be so called because it is slaughtered by cutting the windpipe and gullet and the two external jugular veins: (TA:) the Prophet disallowed this appellation, (Mgh, Msb,) as being of evil omen, (Mgh,) or as though he saw them to regard it as of evil omen, (Msb,) and desired them to use نَسِيكَةٌ in its stead; (Mgh, Msb, TA;) saying I like not العُقُوق. (TA.) b7: عَقِيقَةُ البَرْقِ signifies What remains [for an instant] in the clouds, of the rays, or beams, of lightning; (Lth, O, K;) as also ↓ العُقَقُ; (K;) which, as well as العَقِيقَةُ, is also expl. as meaning lightning which one sees in the midst of the clouds, resembling a drawn sword: (TA:) or عَقِيقَةُ البَرْقِ signifies lightning in a state of commotion in the clouds: (S, O:) or lightning extending in an elongated form in the side, or breadth, of the clouds: (TA:) or lightning that cleaves the clouds, and extends high, into the midst of the sky, without going to the right and left: (S in art. خفو:) or, as expl. by Aboo-Sa'eed, a flash of lightning that has spread in the horizon: (O, voce شَقِيقَةٌ:) a sword is likened thereto: (S, O, K:) and [the pl.] عَقَائِقُ is a name for swords: (O, K:) ↓ عَقِيقٌ, also, signifies lightning. (TA.) b8: And عَقِيقَةٌ signifies also An arrow shot towards the sky; (S, O, K;) the arrow of self-excuse; which was used in the manner described in the explanation of the phrase عَقَّ بِالسَّهْمِ [q. v.]. (S, O.) b9: See also عَقُوقٌ, last signification.

سَحَابَةٌ عَقَّاقَةٌ A cloud pouring forth its water: (TA:) or a cloud much rent by water. (T, TA voce هَيْدَبٌ.) عِقَّانٌ Shoots that come forth from the أُصُول [meaning trunks, or stems,] of palm-trees and of grape-vines; (S, O, K;) and which, if not cut off, cause the اصول to become vitiated, or unsound.

عَقْعَقٌ [The magpie, corvus pica; so called in the present day;] a certain bird, (S, O, Msb, K,) well known, (S, O,) of the size of the pigeon, (Msb,) party-coloured, black and white, (O, Msb, K,) having a long tail, (O, Msb,) said by Is-hák El-Mowsilee to be the same that is called شَجَجَى, (Th, IB, TA,) a species of crow, (IAth, Msb, TA,) wherefore it is said in a trad. that the man in the state of إِحْرَام may kill it; (IAth, TA;) its cry resembles the sound of ع and ق [or the repeated sound of عَقْ]; (O, K;) and the Arabs regard it as an evil omen. (Msb.) [See also صُرَدٌ.]

عَاقٌّ Undutiful, disobedient, refractory, or illmannered, to his parent, or father; (S, * O, * K;) breaking, or one who breaks, his compact of obedience to his parent, or father; (TA;) disobeying, or disobedient to, his father; and failing, or neglecting, to behave to him in a good, or comely, manner; (Msb;) [and severing, or one who severs, the tie, or ties, of relationship, by unkind behaviour to his kindred; (see its verb;)] and ↓ عَقٌّ signifies the same; (O, K;) as also ↓ عُقَقٌ, (S, O, TA,) but in an intensive sense, altered from عَاقٌّ, like غُدَر and فُسَق from غَادِر and فَاسِق, in the K erroneously said to be عَقَقٌ; (TA;) and ↓ عُقُقٌ; (L, and TA as from the K, but not in my MS. copy of the K nor in the CK;) which last signifies also [as a pl.] men severing, or who sever, the ties of relationship, by unkind behaviour to their kindred; and also remote, or distant, enemies: (TA:) [and ↓ عَقُوقٌ is app. used (as Freytag asserts it to be) in the sense of عَاقٌّ in the Fákihet el-Khulatà, p. 55, 1. 7 from the bottom:] the pl. of عَاقٌّ is عَقَقَةٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) like كَفَرَةٌ, (S,) and عُقَّقٌ, like رُكَّعٌ, a form used by Ru-beh, (O,) and أَعِقَّةٌ, which is an extr. [meaning anomalous] pl. (Ham p. 93.) ↓ ذُقٌ عُقَقُ, (S, O,) in a trad., (S,) said by Aboo-Sufyán to Hamzeh on the day of Ohod, when he passed by him slain, (S, * O,) means ذُقٌ جَزَآءَ فِعْلِكَ [Taste thou the recompense of thy deed], (S,) or ذُقِ القَتْلَ [taste thou slaughter], (O,) يَا عَاقُّ [O undutiful, &c.; or, accord. to the explanation in the TA mentioned above, عُقَقُ, for يَا عُقَقُ, means O very undutiful, &c.]. (S, O.) عَوَاقُّ النَّخْلِ The shoots, or offsets, of the palmtrees, that grow forth therewith. (O, K.) [See also عِقَّانٌ.]

أَعَقُّ مِنْ ضَبٍّ [More undutiful, &c., to kindred, than a lizard of the species called ضبّ] is a prov. [mentioned, but not expl., in the O]: IAar says, the female [of the ضبّ] is meant; and its عُقُوق consists in its eating its young ones. (TA.) [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 152-3. And see an ex. of أَعَقُّ in a verse cited in art. زهد, conj. 2.]

ى1 عَمِىَ, [aor. ـْ inf. n. عَمًى, He was, or became, blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes; (Msb, K, * TA;) as also ↓ اِعْمَاىَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعْمِيَآءٌ; (K;) [said by SM to be like اِرْعَوَى, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِرْعِوَآءٌ; as though اِعْمَاىَ were originally اِعْمَىَّ, like as اِرْعَوَى is originally اِرْعَوَّ, both being of the measure اِفْعلَّ; but he adds, correctly, that,] accord. to Sgh, اِعْمَاىَ is originally like اِدْهَامَمَ, which becomes اِدْهَامَّ, [i. e. it is originally اِعْمَايَىَ,] but the latter ى is changed into ا because of the fet-hah of the former, so that it becomes اِعْمَايَا, and the two, thus differing, do not easily admit of idghám (TA;) and sometimes the ى of اِعْمَاىَ is musheddedeh, (Sgh, K, TA,) so that it becomes [↓ اِعْمَاىَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعمِيَّآءٌ,] like اِدْهَامَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِدْهِيمَامٌ; but this is by a straining of a point, and not in use: (Sgh, TA:) and ↓ تعمّى, likewise, signifies the same, (K, TA,) i. e., the same as عَمِىَ. (TA.) And you say also, عَمِيَتْ عَيْنَاهُ His two eyes were, or became, blind. (TA.) b2: Hence عَمًى is metaphorically used in relation to the mind, as meaning (tropical:) An erring; the connection between the two meanings being the not finding, or not taking, the right way: (Msb:) or the being blind in respect of the mind: and in this sense, the verb is as above, with the exception of the measure اِفعَالَّ [and the abbreviated form of this]. (K, * TA. [اَفْعَالٍ in the CK in this passage is a mistranscription, for افْعَالَّ.]) You say, عَمِىَ عَنْ رُشْدِهِ, and حُجَّتِهِ, meaning لَمْ يَهْتَدِ (assumed tropical:) [He did not, or could not, become guided to his right course, and his plea or the like; i. e. he was, or became, blind thereto]. (TA.) And عَمِىَ عَنْ حَقِّهِ (assumed tropical:) [He was, or became, blind to his right, or due], like عَشِىَ عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) b3: One says also عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرُ (tropical:) The information was, or became, unapparent, obscure, or covert, to him. (Mgh, Msb. *) And عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ طَرِيقُهُ, (TA,) and الأَمْرُ, (S, TA,) and الشِّعْرُ, and الكَلَامُ, (Har p. 190,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His way, or road, and the affair, and the poetry, or verse, and the speech, or saying,] was, or became, obscure, or dubious, to him; (S, TA, and Har ubi suprá) and so ↓ عُمِّىَ; (TA;) and ↓ تعمّى. (Har ubi suprá.) Hence, accord. to different readings, in the Kur [xxviii. 66], فَعَمِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَنْبَآءُ and ↓ فَعُمِّيَتْ (assumed tropical:) [And the pleas shall be obscure, or dubious, to them]. (S, TA.) b4: and عَمِيتُ إِلَى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I betook myself to such a thing, not desiring any other; as also عَطِشْتُ. (TA. [Accord. to the TA, the inf. ns. of these two verbs, thus used, are عميان and عطشان: but they are correctly عَمًى and عَطَشٌ.]) A2: عَمَى

المَوْجُ, aor. ـْ (S, K,) inf. n. عَمْىٌ, (S,) The waves cast the particles of rubbish, or the like, (S, K, TA,) driving them to their upper, or uppermost, parts, (TA,) and the foam. (S, TA.) b2: And عَمَى بِلُغَامِهِ, (K, TA,) aor. ـْ (TA,) He (a camel) brayed, and cast the foam of his mouth upon his head, or the upper part of his head, or anywhere: (K, TA:) mentioned by ISd. (TA.) b3: And [hence] عَمَانِى بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He cast upon me a suspicion of such a thing. (TA.) b4: عَمَى, aor. ـْ said of water, (K, TA,) and of other things, (TA,) also signifies It flowed; (K, TA;) and so هَمَى. (TA.) b5: And عمى النَّبْتُ [app. عَمَى] and ↓ اعتمى and اِعْتَمَّ are three syn. dial. vars., (TA in this art.,) meaning (assumed tropical:) The plant, or herbage, became of its full height, and blossomed; (S, K, TA, in explanation of the last, in art. عم;) and became luxuriant, or abundant and dense. (TA in that art.) 2 عمّاهُ, inf. n. تَعْمِيَةٌ, He rendered him blind, of both eyes: (K, TA:) and (TA) so ↓ اعماهُ, (S, Msb, TA,) said of God, (S, TA,) or of a man. (Msb.) Hence the saying of Sá'ideh Ibn-Jueiyeh, وَعَمَّى عَلَيْهِ المَوْتُ بَابَىْ طَرِيقِهِ [And death rendered blind, to him, the two doors of his way]; بابى طريقه meaning his two eyes. (TA.) b2: And [hence] عَمَّيْتُ الخَبَرَ (assumed tropical:) I made the information unapparent, obscure, or covert. (Msb.) And عمّى مَعْنَى البَيْتِ, inf. n. as above, (S, K,) (assumed tropical:) He made the meaning of the verse unapparent, obscure, or covert. (K.) And عمّى مُرَادَهُ (assumed tropical:) He made his meaning enigmatical, or obscure, in his speech, or language. (S, A, K, in art. لغز.) and عمّى عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ شَيْئًا (assumed tropical:) He made a thing obscure, or dubious, to a man. (TA.) See also 1, latter half, in two places. [And see مُعَمَّى.]4 اعماهُ: see 2, first sentence. b2: Also He found him to be blind [app. meaning properly, and also (assumed tropical:) in mind]. (K, TA.) b3: مَا أَعْمَاهُ meansonly مَا أَعْمَى قَلْبَهُ (assumed tropical:) [How blind is his mind!]: (S, K:) for the verb of wonder is not formed from that which is not significant of increase. (S.) 5 تعمّى [in its proper sense, and also in a tropical sense]: see 1, in two places.6 تعامى He feigned himself أَعْمَى (S, K, TA) [i. e. blind], in respect of the eyes [as is implied in the S], b2: and also (assumed tropical:) in respect of the mind [as is implied in the K]. (TA.) You say, تعامى عَنْ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) He feigned himself ignorant [of such a thing], as though he did not see it; like تَعَاشَى

عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) 8 اِعْتَمَاهُ He chose it, selected it, or preferred it; syn. اِخْتَارَهُ; (S, K, TA;) i. e., a thing; (S;) formed by transposition from اِعْتَامَهُ [mentioned in art. عيم]. (S, TA.) b2: And i. q. قَصَدَهُ [i. e. He tended, betook himself, or directed himself or his course or aim, to, or towards, him, or it; &c.]; (K, TA;) like اِعْتَامَهُ. (TA in art. عيم.) A2: See also 1, last sentence.11 اِعْمَاىَّ, and its abbreviated form اِعْمَاىَ: see 1, first quarter.

صَكَّةَ عُمْىٍ: see صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ.

عَمَا in the phrase عَمَا وَاللّٰهِ, i. q. أَمَا [expl. in art. اما]: (K, TA:) as also غَمَا, (K in art. غمى,) and هَمَا. (TA.) عَمًى [sometimes written عَمًا] inf. n. of عَمِىَ [q. v.]. (S, * Msb, K.) [Hence the saying, لَا شَلَلًا وَلَا عَمًى: see 1 in art. شل. Hence also one says, رَكِبَ أَمْرًا عَلَى العَمَى, meaning He ventured upon, or embarked in, an affair blindly; like عَلَى

غَيْرِ بَصِيرَةِ.]

A2: See also أَعْمَآءٌ.

A3: And see عَمَآءٌ, in two places.

A4: Also Stature: and height. (K.) One says, مَا أَحْسَنَ عَمَى هٰذَا الرَّجُلِ i. e. [How goodly is] the height, or the stature, of this man! (TA.) A5: And Dust; syn. غُبَارٌ. (K.) A6: In the saying of a rájiz, describing a skin of milk, because of its whiteness, يَحْسَبُهُ الجَاهِلُ مَا كَانَ عَمَا شَيْخًا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّةِ مُعَمَّمَا [The ignorant would think it, while there was remoteness, to be an old man upon his chair, turbaned,] the meaning is looking at it from afar; for العَمَا in this case signifies remoteness. (TA.) عَمٍ, originally عَمِىٌ: see أَعْمَى, in four places.

عَمْيَةٌ, a contraction of عَمِيَةٌ fem. of عَمٍ: see أَعْمَى.

عِمْيَةٌ [in the CK erroneously عَمْيَة] a subst. from اِعْتَمَاهُ in the sense of اِخْتَارَهُ [signifying A thing chosen, selected, or preferred; like خِيرَةٌ, a subst. from اِخْتَارَهُ]. (K, TA.) عَمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed عَمٍ

(TA.) b2: See also عَمَآءَةٌ.

أَتَيْتُهُ صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ, (S,) or لَقِيتهُ صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ, and ↓ عُمْىٍ, which occurs in poetry, (K, TA,) in a case in which the metre requires it, a verse of Ru-beh, who uses it for عَمَىٍّ, (TA, [which shows, by citing that verse, that عَمًى, the reading in the CK, is wrong,]) and ↓ أَعْمَى, (K,) i. e. [I came to him, or I met him,] in the time of midday when the heat was vehement, (S,) or in the most vehement heat of midday in summer (K, and Lh and O and TA in art. صك) when the heat almost blinded by its vehemence; (Lh and O and TA in that art.;) a time in which the divinelyappointed prayer [of midday] is forbidden: it is said only in the hot season; because when a man goes forth at that time, he cannot fill his eyes with the light of the sun; or, as ISd says, because the gazelle seeks the covert when the heat is vehement, and his eye becomes weak by reason of the whiteness of the sun, and the bright shining thereof, and he is dazzled, so that he knocks against his covert, not seeing it: (TA:) عُمَىّ being an abbreviated dim. of أَعْمَى: (S:) or it is a name for the heat, (K, TA,) itself: (TA:) or the name of a certain man, (K, TA,) of [the tribe of] 'Adwán, who used to press forward with the pilgrims when the heat was vehement, as is related in the Nh, or (TA) who used to decide cases judicially in, or concerning, the pilgrimage, and he came among a company journeying upon their camels, (K, TA,) performing the religious visit called عُمْرَة, (TA,) and they alighted at a station in a hot day, whereupon he said, “Upon whomsoever shall come this hour, or time, of tomorrow while he is حَرَام [i. e. in the condition of one performing the acts of the حَجّ or of the عُمْرَة], (K, TA,) not having accomplished his عُمْرَة, (TA,) he shall remain حَرَام until [this time] next year: ” and they immediately sprang up, (K, TA,) hastening, (TA,) so that they arrived at the House [of God, at Mekkeh, in the time required,] from a distance of a journey of two nights, using exertion; (K, TA;) and this saying became a prov., as is related in the M: (TA:) or it was the name of a certain man, (S, K, TA,) of the Amalekites, (S, TA,) who made a sudden attack upon a people, and exterminated them; (S, K, TA;) and the time became called in relation to him. (S, TA.) [See also art. صك.]

عَمَآءَةٌ, (K, TA,) or ↓ عَمَآءٌ, (CK, and so in my MS. copy of the K,) and ↓ عَمَايَةٌ, and ↓ عَمِيَّةٌ, and ↓ عُمِيَّةٌ, (assumed tropical:) Error: and (assumed tropical:) persistence; or con-tention, or litigation, or wrangling; or persistence in contention or litigation or wrangling; syn. لَجَاجٌ; (K, TA;) in that which is false or vain or futile: (TA:) [or the last but one, or the last, signifies (assumed tropical:) ignorance; for] ↓ فِيهِمْ عَمِيَّتُهُمْ or ↓ عُمِيَّتُهُمْ (accord. to different copies of the S) means In them is their ignorance. (S.) [See also عِمِّيَّةٌ, and عِمِّيَّا.] b2: For the first (عَمَآءَةٌ), see also عَمَآءٌ.

عَمَايَةٌ A remaining portion of the darkness of night. (TA.) b2: [And Dimness of the eyes from tears: so, accord. to Freytag, in the Deewán of the Hudhalees.] b3: See also عَمَآءٌ. b4: And see عَمَآءَةٌ.

عَمِيَّةٌ: see عَمَآءَةٌ, in two places. b2: Also i. q. دعوة عميأء [i. e., app., ↓ دِعْوَةٌ عَمْيَآءُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) An obscure claim to relationship]. (TA.) عُمِيَّةٌ: see عَمَآءَةٌ, in two places.

عَمَّا is a compound of عَنْ and مَا.

تَرَكْنَاهُمْ عُمَّى, (S, K,) or تركناهم فى عُمَّى, (so in some copies of the S, [thus in one of my copies,]) (assumed tropical:) We left them at the point of death. (S, K.) b2: See also أَعْمَآءُ.

عِمِّيَّا, of the measure فِعِّيلَى, i. q. فِتْنَةٌ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) Trial, or probation; punishment; slaughter; civil war; conflict and faction, or sedition; &c.]. (Mz, 40th نوع.) [See also the next paragraph.]

b2: [In the TA, عمياء, evidently a mistranscription for عِمِّيَّا, is expl. as having the second of the meanings assigned above to عَمَآءَةٌ &c., i. e. (assumed tropical:) Persistence; or contention, &c.] b3: قَتِيلُ عِمِّيَّا, (Mz ubi suprà, and K,) [in the CK, erroneously, عَمِيَّا, and in the TA قُتِلَ عِمِّيَّا,] the latter word of the measure فِعِّيلَى, (Mz, TA,) like رِمِّيَّا, (K, TA, [in the CK like رَمِيَّا,]) and خِصِّيصَى, (TA,) means (assumed tropical:) A slain person whose slayer is not known. (Mz, K, TA.) The predicament of him who has been so slain is like that of the slain unintentionally; the bloodwit being obligatory in his case [on his عَاقِلَة, q. v. voce عَاقِلٌ]. (TA.) عِمِّيَّةٌ and عُمِّيَّةٌ, (K, TA,) of the measure فُعِّيلَةٌ from العَمَى, (TA,) Pride; or self-magnification: or error; or deviation from that which is right. (K, TA. [See also عَمَآءَةٌ, and عِمِّيَّا.]) Hence, in a trad., مَنْ قُتِلَ تَحْتَ رَايَةِ عُِمِّيَّةٍ [Whoso has been slain under a banner of pride, &c.,] i. e. in فِتْنَة [meaning conflict and faction, or the like], or error, as in the fighting in the case of partisanship, and of erroneous opinions. (TA.) عَامٍ One who does not see his road, or way. (TA.) b2: عَامِيَةٌ, applied to a land (أَرْضٌ): see أَعْمَى. b3: Also, [thus applied,] Of which the traces are becoming [or become] effaced, or obliterated. (TA.) b4: See also أَعْمَآءٌ, in three places. b5: Applied to a woman, (TA,) عَامِيَةٌ signifies بَكَّآءَةٌ, (K, TA,) [a strange epithet,] meaning (assumed tropical:) Having very little milk. (TK.) A2: Applied to a man, عَامٍ signifies also رَامٍ [i. e. Casting, &c.]. (TA.) أَعْمَى (S, Msb, K) and ↓ عَمٍ (K [but see what follows]) Blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes: (Msb, K, * TA:) fem. of the former عَمْيَآءُ: (Msb, K, TA:) and pl. [masc.] عُمْىٌ (S, Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمْيَانٌ (Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمَاةٌ, as though this last were pl. of عَامٍ; (K, TA, but not in the CK;) and the dual of its fem. is عَمْيَاوَانِ; and its pl. is عَمْيَاوَاتٌ: (TA:) the fem. of ↓ عَمٍ is عَمِيَةٌ, (S, K, TA, [in the CK عَمِيَّةٌ, which is a mistranscription, for it is]) of the measure فَعِلَةٌ, (S,) like فَرِحَةٌ, (TA,) and ↓ عَمْيَةٌ, (K, TA, but not in the CK,) which is [a contraction] like فَخْذٌ for فَخِذٌ: (TA:) and the pl. masc. is عَمُونَ. (S, TA.) b2: And [hence,] (assumed tropical:) Blind in respect of the mind: (K, TA:) [but more commonly] one says, ↓ هُوَ عَمٍ as meaning (tropical:) He is erring, or one who errs; and أَعْمَى القَلْبِ [meaning the same, or blind in respect of the mind]: (Msb:) or القَلْبِ ↓ رَجُلٌ عَمِى i. e. (assumed tropical:) An ignorant man [or a man blind in respect of the mind]; and اِمْرَأَةٌ عَمِيَةٌ عَنِ الصَّوَابِ [a woman ignorant of, or blind to, that which is right], and عَمِيَةُ القَلْبِ [like عَمِى القَلْبِ as applied to a man]. (S.) In the saying in the Kur [xvii. 74], وَمَنْ كَانَ فِى هٰذِهِ فَهُوَ فِى الْآخِرَةِ أَعْمَى, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former [اعمى] is a part. n. and the second is like it; (TA;) and the meaning is, And whoso is in this state of existence blind in respect of the mind, not seeing his right course, he will be in the other blind with respect to the way of safety: (Bd:) or, as some say, the second is what is termed أَفْعَلُ تَفْضِيلٍ, the complement of which is expressed by means of مِنْ, [meaning more blind &c.,] and therefore AA and Yaakoob did not pronounce it with الإِمَالَة, as not being like the first, (Bd, TA, *) which is subject to الامالة because its ا [written ى] becomes [really]

ى in the dual: but Hamzeh and Ks and Aboo-Bekr pronounced both with الامالة. (Bd.) b3: الأَعْمَيَانِ means (assumed tropical:) The torrent and the fire of a burning house or the like; (K, TA;) because of the perplexity that befalls him whom they befall; or because, when they occur, they spare not a place, nor avoid anything; like the أَعْمَى [or blind], who knows not where he is travelling, so that he goes whither his leg conveys him: (TA:) or the torrent and the night: (K:) or the torrent, (S, K) or the tumultuous torrent, (TA,) and the camel excited by lust. (S, K, TA.) b4: And الأَمْرُ الأَعْمَى (assumed tropical:) The case [such as that] of partisanship (العَصَبِيَّة) whereof the manner of proceeding is not distinguishable. (TA.) b5: And أَرْضٌ عَمْيَآءُ and ↓ عَامِيَةٌ, and مَكَانٌ أَعْمَى, (assumed tropical:) A land, and a place, in which one will not, or cannot, be directed to his right course. (TA.) b6: See also صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ: b7: and see عَمِيَّةٌ.

أَعْمَآءٌ Tracts of land in which is no sign of the way, (S, K,) nor any habitation or cultivation, (K,) or nor any trace of habitation or cultivation; (S;) and ↓ مَعَامٍ signifies the same; (S, K;) this latter being a pl. of which the sing., said by ISd to be unknown to him, should by rule be معمية [app. مُعْمِيَةٌ], but it is ↓ عُمَّى, deviating from rule; (TA;) or it means مَجَاهِلُ, and its sing. is معماة [i. e. ↓ مَعْمَاةٌ] signifying a place of erring, or wandering from the right way: (Har p. 85:) in the K, أَعْمَآءٌ is also expl. as signifying جُهَّالٌ [pl. of جَاهِلٌ], and is said to be [in this sense] pl. of أَعْمَى: but this is a double mistake, for it signifies مَجَاهِلُ, [like as مَعَامٍ is said to do above,] and its sing. is عمى [app. ↓ عَمًى]. (TA.) In the phrase ↓ أَعْمَآءُ عَامِيَةٌ, [in the CK, erroneously, عامِيَّةٌ,] the latter word is added to give intensiveness to the meaning; i. e., it signifies [Tracts in which is no sign of the way, &c.,] in the utmost degree obscure or dubious: thus it is in the following verse: (TA:) Ru-beh says, أَعْمَاؤُهُ ↓ وَبَلَدٍ عَامِيَةٍ

كَأَنَّ لَوْنَ أَرْضِهِ سَمَاؤُهُ [And many a desert, or waterless desert, whereof the tracts in which is no sign of the way are in the utmost degree obscure or dubious, as though the colour of its ground were like that of its sky]: (S, TA:) he means وَرُبَّ بَلَدٍ. (S.) b2: Also Tall; applied to men: (IAar, K:) pl. of ↓ عَامٍ, like as أَنْصَارٌ is of نَاصِرٌ. (IAar, TA.) أَعْمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed أَعْمَى [q. v.]. (S, TA.) مَعْمَاةٌ; and the pl. مَعَامٍ: see أَعْمَآءٌ.

مُعَمًّى (assumed tropical:) A verse [or a saying] of which the meaning is made unapparent, obscure, or covert. (S, TA.) المُعْتَمِى The lion. (K.)
