1 رَاعَهُ, (IAar, Az, S, Msb, K, *) aor. ـُ (Mgh,) inf. n. رَوْعٌ (Msb, TA) and رُوعٌ and رُوُوعٌ and رُؤُوعٌ, (IAar, TA,) [He, or it, affected his رُوع, i. e. heart, or mind, with fright, or fear;] fear of it (namely an affair or event) reached his رُوع; (Az, TA;) he, or it, (a man, S, or an affair or event, IAar, TA, or a thing, Msb,) frightened him; put him in fear; made him afraid; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ روّعهُ, (S, Msb, K, *) inf. n. تَرْوِيعٌ: (TA:) or its beauty and abundance or multitude frightened him: (Lth, TA:) and ↓ the latter also, it frightened him by its abundance or multitude, or its beauty. (TA.) Hence the saying, in a trad., إِذَا شَمِطَ لإِنْسَانُ فِى عَارِضَيْهِ فَذٰلِكَ الرَّوْعُ, as though meaning [When the man becomes grizzled in the hair of the two sides of his face, that is] the warning of death. (TA.) You say also, [using the pass. form,] رِيعَ, aor. ـَ (TA,) inf. n. رَوْعٌ, (S, K,) He was, or became, frightened, or afraid; or he feared; (S, * K, * TA;) as also ↓ ارتاع, and ↓ تروّع. (S, K, TA.) And رَاعَ مِنْهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. رَوْعٌ, He was, or became, frightened at it, or afraid of it; or he feared it. (TK. [But I know of no authority on which this is founded, except a prov. (cited in art. جعر) , in which some read رُوعِى جَعَارِ instead of رُوغِى.]) To a man, you say, لَا تُرَعْ [Be not thou frightened;] fear not thou; let not fear overtake thee: and to a woman, لَا تُرَاعِى. (S, TA.) And hence the saying, in a trad., لَنْ تُرَاعَوْا مَا رَأَيْنَا مِنْ شَىْءٍ [Ye shall not be frightened, or afraid: we saw not, or have not seen, anything]. (TA.) You also say, مِنْهُ ↓ ارتاع and لَهُ He was, or became, frightened at, or afraid of, him, or it; or he feared him, or it. (TA.) b2: (tropical:) [It affected his رُوع, i. e. heart, or mind, with a sudden surprise; it took him by surprise.] One says, مَا رَاعَنِى إِلَّا مَجِيؤُكَ meaning (tropical:) [Nothing took me by surprise but thy coming; i. e. I was surprised by thy coming; or] I knew not save thy coming; as though he said, nothing struck my رُوع but thy coming. (TA.) And خَرَجْتُ وَ مَا رَاعَنِى إِلَّا فُلَانٌ لِالبَابِ (assumed tropical:) [I went forth, and nothing took me by surprise but such a one at the door]; which is equivalent to saying, and lo, such a one was at the door. (Har p. 207.) And it is said in a trad. of I'Ab, فَلَمْ يَرُعْنِى إِلَّا رَجُلٌ آخِذٌ بِمَنْكِبِى, i. e. I knew not [save a man taking hold of, or seizing, my shoulder-joint]; as though he came upon him suddenly, or unexpectedly, without any previous appointment, and without knowledge, and so that event frightened him. (TA.) b3: [It affected his رُوع, i. e. heart, or mind, with admiration, or pleasure;] it excited his admiration and approval; it pleased him, or rejoiced him; (S, Msb, K;) said of beauty [&c.]. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., describing the people of Paradise, فَيَرُوعُهُ مَا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ اللِّبَاسِ And what is upon him, of apparel, excites his admiration &c., by its beauty. (TA.) b4: [It (drink) cooled it, (namely, the heart,) or allayed its thirst.] A poet says, سَقَتْنِى شَرْبَةً رَاعَتْ فُؤَادِى

سَقَاهَا اللّٰهُ مِنْ حَوْضِ الرَّسُولِ [She gave me to drink a draught that cooled, or allayed the thirst of, my heart: may God give her to drink from the pool of the Apostle in Paradise]. (TA.) You say also, هٰذِهِ شَرْبَةٌ رَاعَ بِهَا فُؤَادِى [which may be rendered This is a draught by which he has cooled, or allayed the thirst of, my heart; and it is implied in the TA that this is the right meaning: or it means] this is a draught by which the thirst, or vehement thirst, of my heart has been allayed: (so accord. to the pointing in the copies of the K:) mentioned by Az. (TA.) A2: The verb from رَوَعٌ [q. v. infrà] is one and the same [whether trans. or intrans.; i. e., you say رَاعَهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. رَوْعٌ, meaning “He,” or “it, excited his admiration and approval,” &c., as expl. above; and رَاعَ, app. with the same aor. and inf. n., meaning He possessed the quality of exciting admiration and approval by his beauty and the pleasingness of his aspect, or by his courage, &c.; and in like manner, رَاعَتْ, said of a woman]; the trans. verb [in this case] being like the trans. [in other cases], and the intrans. [in this case] like the intrans. [in other cases]: but the regular form, accord. to Az, of the [intrans.] verb hence derived is رَوِعَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. رَوَعٌ. (TA.) A3: رَاعَ فِى يَدِى

كَذَا: see art. ريع. b2: And رَاعَ, aor. ـُ and يَرِيعُ, inf. n. of the former رُوَاعٌ, and of the latter رَيْعٌ: see art. ريع.2 رَوَّعَ see 1, first sentence, in two places.5 تَرَوَّعَ see 1, in the former half of the paragraph.8 إِرْتَوَعَ see 1, in the former half of the paragraph, in two places. b2: ارتاع لِلْخَيْرِ i. q. ارتاح لَهُ [He was affected by alacrity, cheerfulness, briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, disposing him to promptness to do good; he inclined to, and loved, doing good]. (Az.) رَوْعٌ [see 1, of which it is an inf. n. b2: ] Fright, or fear; (S, K;) as also ↓ رَوعٌ [accord. to some, but this seems to be little known]. (TA.) Hence the saying, أَفْرَخَ رَوْعُهُ His fright, or fear, departed. (S.) Az says, All the lexicologists whom I have met say أَفْرَخَ رَوْعُهُ, with fet-h to the ر [in روعه], except El-Mundhiree, who informs me that AHeyth used to say, It is only ↓ افرخ رَوْعُكَ, with damm. (TA.) Accord. to different relations of a trad., you say, ↓ أَفْرَخَ رُوعُكَ, meaning Fright, or fear, hath departed from thy heart; or may fright, or fear, depart from thy heart; (K, TA;) thus expl. by AHeyth; (TA;) and افرخ رَوْعُكَ, with fet-h; or this latter, only, is the right, and means what thou fearest hath quitted thee, and departed from thee, and become removed; or may what thou fearest quit thee, &c.; as though it were taken from the young bird's going forth from the egg, (K, TA,) and the darkness' becoming removed from it; thus expl. by Aboo-Ahmad El-Hasan Ibn-' Abd-Allah Ibn-Sa'eed El-' Askeree; and AO says that افرخ روعك [thus in the TA, without any syll. signs,] means let thy fright, or fear, depart, for the case is not as thou fearest it to be. (TA.) It is also said, in a trad. of Mo'áwiyeh, that he wrote in a letter to Ziyád, ↓ لِيُفْرِخْ رُوعُكَ, with damm; (K, TA;) but the opinion commonly obtaining with the leading lexicologists is, that it is with fet-h; except AHeyth, who relates it thus, with damm; (TA;) meaning Dismiss thou the رَوْع from thy رُوع; (K, TA;) i. e., the fright, or fear, from thy heart: (TA:) for you say أَفْرَخَتِ البَيْضَةُ when the young bird quits the egg; and رَوْع is fright, or fear, which does not depart from itself, but from its place, which is the رُوع, with damm; (AHeyth, K;) the رَوْع in the رُوع being like the young bird in the egg: in like manner also one says أَفْرَخَ فُؤَادُ الرَّجُلِ when a man's fright, or fear, departs: but Dhu-r-Rummeh, though knowing the meaning, has made an inversion, saying, قَدْ أَفْرَخَتْ عَنْ رُوعِهِ الكُرَبُ [for قَدْ أَفْرَخَ عَنِ الكُرَبِ رُوعُهُ His heart had freed itself from griefs]. (AHeyth, TA.) AHeyth adds, (TA,) one also says, عَنِ الأَمْرِ ↓ أَفْرِخَ رُوعَكَ, or عَلَى الأَمْرِ, [accord. to different copies of the K, the latter being the reading in the TA, but the former probably the right,] meaning [Free thy heart from the affair; i. e.] be thou tranquil, and without fear. (K, TA.) Az observes, What AHeyth says is clear; but I am averse from it because of his being alone in his saying; though sometimes later authorities correct things in which the earlier have erred; therefore the correctness of AHeyth may not be [absolutely] denied in this matter, seeing that he had an ample share of knowledge. (TA.) [See also art. فرخ, in several places.] b3: Also (tropical:) War, or battle; as in the phrase, شَهِدَ الرَّوْعَ (tropical:) [He witnessed, or was present at or in, war, or battle]. (TA.) [See also an ex. in a verse cited voce سَعَفٌ.]

رُوعٌ The heart: (S, Msb, K:) or the part thereof which is the place of رَوْع, i. e. fear: (K, * TA:) or the سَوَاد [or core, &c.,] thereof: (K:) and the mind: (S, Msb, K, * TA:) and the understanding; or intellect. (S, K.) See رَوْعٌ, in five places. You say, وَقَعَ ذٰلِكَ فِى رُوعِى That came into my mind. (S, Msb, * TA.) And it is said in a trad., إِنَّ الرُّوحَ نَفَثَ فِى رُوعِى [Verily the Trusted, or Trusty, Spirit (meaning Gabriel) inspired into my mind, or heart]. (S.) You say also, ثَابِ رُوعُهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) He went to [app. a mistake for from] a thing, and then returned to it. (TA.) رَوَعٌ The quality of exciting admiration and approval by beauty (S, K) and pleasingness of aspect, or by courage; (K;) the quality denoted by the epithet أَرْوَعُ, applied to a man, (S, K, *) and رَوْعَآءُ, applied to a woman. (S.) [See also 1, near the end of the paragraph.]

رَوِعٌ: see رَائِعٌ; last sentence.

رَوْعَةٌ A fit of fright or fear: (S, K, TA:) pl. رَوَعَاتٌ; (TA;) which is applied by Tarafeh to the frights occasioned by a stallion-camel to a she-camel when he desires to cover her. (EM, p. 66.) It is said in a trad., فَأَعْطَاهُمْ بِرَوْعَةِ الخَيْلِ, meaning And he gave them something for the fright occasioned to their women and their children by the horsemen. (TA.) b2: A trait, or sign, or mark, of beauty [that affects the رُوع, or heart]: (IAar, K:) beauty that excites admiration and approval, or pleases, or rejoices. (TA.) رُوَاعُ الفُؤَادِ and رُوَاعَةُ الفُؤَادِ, applied to a she-camel, Quick, spirited, vigorous; sharp in spirit; syn. شَهْمَةٌ ذَكِيَّةٌ: (K:) and [in like manner]

↓ رَوْعَآءُ, applied to a she-camel and a mare, (S, K,) but not to a male [in this sense, i. e. its masc. form, أَرْوَعُ, is not thus used], (S,) sharp in spirit; syn. حَدِيدَةُ الفُؤَادِ: (S, K:) in the T, رُوَاعٌ, without ة, is applied as an epithet to a mare: and IAar says that ↓ رَوْعَآءُ, thus applied, is not from رَائِعَةٌ, but means one that is as though she were fearful, by reason of her sharpness, and briskness, or lightness, of spirit: he says also, that ↓ أَرْوَعُ, applied to a horse, is like this epithet applied to a man; and IB says, in art. عجس, that, applied to a man, it signifies quickly frightened or afraid: it is also applied to a heart, meaning that is frightened, [or startled,] by reason of its sharpness, at everything that is heard or seen; and so رُوَاعٌ. (TA.) [See also رَائِعٌ, and أَرْوَعُ mentioned and expl. therewith.]

رَائِعٌ [act. part. n. of رَاعَهُ, q. v.,] Frightening; putting in fear; making afraid; [and particu-larly] by its beauty and abundance or multitude. (Lth, TA.) b2: Applied to beauty, That excites admiration and approval in the رُوع [i. e. heart, or mind,] of him who beholds it, and pleases him, or rejoices him. (TA.) Applied to a man, (K, * TA,) as also ↓ أَرْوَعُ (S, K, TA) so applied, (S, TA,) Who excites admiration and approval by his beauty (S, K, TA) and pleasingness of aspect, (K, TA,) with generousness, or nobleness, and excellence, and lordly condition; (TA;) or by his courage: (K, TA:) or the former, beautiful in countenance, who excites admiration and approval by his pleasingness of aspect and by the goodliness of his form or figure or state of apparel and the like: or, as some say, who frightens men by his aspect, inspiring reverence or awe: but the former explanation is the more reasonable: and ↓ the latter epithet, a beautiful man, who excites admiration and approval in him who beholds him: or, as some say, sharp; lively in spirit, and sharp in intellect: (TA:) [see also the next preceding paragraph:] the fem. of the former is with ة: (TA:) that of the latter, ↓ رَوْعَآءُ: (S:) the pl. of رَائِعٌ is أَرْوَاعٌ, (K, * TA,) applied to men, like as رَوَائِعُ [the pl. of رَائِعَةٌ] is to women: (TA:) and the pl. of أَرْوَعُ and رَوْعَآءُ is ↓ رُوعٌ, (K, TA,) applied to men and to women. (TA.) You say also, فَرَسٌ رَائِعٌ A beautiful horse, that frightens (يُرُوعُ, i. e. يُخَوِّفُ, [or rather startles, but better rendered excites admiration and approval in, or pleases, or rejoices,]) the beholder by his beauty: (Mgh:) and فَرَسٌ رَائِعَةٌ, and ↓ رَوْعَآءُ, [but see, respecting the latter, a remark of IAar in the next preceding paragraph,] a mare that excites admiration and approval, or pleases, or rejoices, (تَرُوعُ,) by her generousness, or excellence, or high blood, and her description. (TA.) [See also art. ريع, to which, as well as to the present art., رَائِعٌ, applied to a horse, is said, in the TA, to belong.] And زِينَةٌ رَائِعَةٌ Beautiful ornament. (TA.) And كَلَامٌ رَائِعٌ (tropical:) Surpassing, or excelling, speech, or language. (TA.) A2: Also Frightened, or afraid; and so ↓ رَوِعٌ, with the و unaltered, as though it were of the measure فَعِيلٌ: [or both signify having fright or fear: for] each is a possessive epithet: or the former may be of the measure فَاعِلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ [and therefore have the signification first given]. (TA.) أَرْوَعُ: fem. رَوْعَآءُ: pl. رُوعٌ: see the two paragraphs next preceding; the former in three places; the latter, in five.

فصح

1 فَصُحَ, (S, A, Mz in the 9th نوع, and so in some copies of the K as stated in the TA,) [aor. ـُ inf. n. فَصَاحَةٌ, (KL,) or فَصْحٌ; (Mz ubi suprà, on the authority of Er-Rághib;) or ↓ فصّح; (so in other copies of the K;) or the latter also; (A;) and ↓ افصح; (A, K, Mz;) said of milk, It became divested of the froth, (S, A, K, Mz,) which is the primary signification accord. to Er-Rághib; (Mz;) and clear of its biestings: (A:) or ↓ افصح has this latter signification. (S, L, K.) and فَصْحٌ, accord. to Er-Rághib, signifies [also] A thing's becoming clear of what was mixed with it. (Mz ubi suprà.) b2: And [hence] فَصُحَ, (S, Msb, K, and Mz ubi suprà,) [aor. ـُ inf. n. فَصَاحَةٌ (S, K) and فَصْحٌ, (K,) (tropical:) He (a man) was, or became, good in his language, or dialect; a metaphorical signification from the same verb as said of milk; so accord. to Er-Rághib: (Mz: see also 4: [and see فَصَاحَهٌ below:]) or he (a foreigner) was, or became, good and correct in his language, or dialect: (S, Msb:) or he [a man] was, or became, clear, perspicuous, or distinct, in speech, or language: and he (a foreigner) spoke Arabic intelligibly: but this signification seems to belong more properly to أَفْصَحَ, q. v.:] or he [a man] was an Arab [by birth, and therefore in speech], and he increased in فَصَاحَة [q. v.]; like ↓ تفصّح: (K:) and he was, or became, eloquent; (L;) thus used as syn. with بَلُغَ [from which it is properly distinct]. (MF.) A2: قَدْ فَصَحَكَ الصُّبْحُ [is said to mean] (assumed tropical:) Daybreak has become apparent to thee, and its light has overcome thee: (K, * TA:) and some say, فَضَحَكَ: [or,] accord. to Lh, فَصَحَهُ الصُّبْحُ means daybreak came upon him suddenly. (TA.) 2 فصّح: see 1, first sentence. b2: Also, (tropical:) He (a foreigner) made his tongue to speak Arabic. (A.) 4 افصح: see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: It is also said of urine, (K, TA,) as mentioned by IAar, but not expl. by him, (TA,) meaning It became clear, or free from turbidness. (K.) b3: And افصحت is said of a ewe, or she-goat, (S, A, K,) and of a she-camel, (TA,) meaning Her milk became free from admixture; (K;) or free from froth, and clear of its biestings: (A:) or her biestings ceased, and the milk came after: (Lh, TA:) or her biestings ceased, and her milk became free from admixture. (S.) b4: and [hence] افصح signifies also (tropical:) He spoke with فَصَاحَة; (K, TA;) [i. e. clearness, perspicuousness, or distinctness; accord. to the explanation of فصاحة in the K, and the usage of this verb in numerous exs.; or with chasteness, or correctness;] as also افصح الكَلَامَ and افصح بِهِ, and افصح القَوْلَ; but when the verb became in frequent use, and commonly known, the objective complement became dropped, as in the case of أَحْسَنَ, &c.: (TA:) (assumed tropical:) he spoke clearly, or plainly, (A, * K, * TA,) to another; (A, TA;) without indistinctness, or without concealment: (TA:) [and] (tropical:) he (a foreigner) spoke Arabic: (S, A, Msb:) or (assumed tropical:) spoke Arabic correctly: (ISk, Msb:) [and] (assumed tropical:) he (a man of barbarous or vitious or indistinct speech) spoke intelligibly. (L.) And one says, افصح فِى

مَنْطِقِهِ (tropical:) He (a child) began to speak intelligibly. (A, L.) And ↓ افصح فُلَانٌ ثُمَّ فَصُحَ (tropical:) [He spoke Arabic, and then became good in his language, or dialect: so accord. to Er-Rághib, as cited in the Mz, 9th نوع; in which it is said that some, but not so correctly, use these two verbs in the converse manner: or he spoke clearly, or intelligibly, and then became chaste, or good and correct, or eloquent, in his speech, or language]. (A.) and افصح is also used in poetry as signifying (assumed tropical:) He (an animal not endowed with speech) uttered a sound, or cry, clearly. (L.) And one says, افصح عَنْ شَىْءٍ, inf. n. إِفْصَاحٌ [in this and the preceding senses], meaning (tropical:) He explained a thing. (A, * TA.) And افصح عَنْ مُرَادِهِ (assumed tropical:) He showed or revealed [his desire or his meaning]. (Msb.) b5: Also (assumed tropical:) It (a thing) became clearly apparent, manifest, or evident. (K.)

(S.) b6: And افصح الرَّجُلُ مِنْ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) The man got clear out of such a thing; or escaped from it. (S, TA.) You say, نُفْصِحُ مِنْ شِتَائِنَا (tropical:) We shall get clear out of our winter. (A.) b7: And أَفْصَحُوا (tropical:) They (the Christians, S, A, K) entered upon, (S, K,) or celebrated, (A,) the festival called الفِصْح [or Easter], (S, A, K,) and broke their fast, eating flesh-meat.

(TA.) See also 1, latter part.6 تَفَاْصَحَ see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.10 إِسْتَفْصَحَ [استفصحهُ (assumed tropical:) He deemed it فَصِيح as meaning chaste, or free from barbarousness, &c.; namely, a word, or phrase: and probably used in a similar sense in relation to a man: but perhaps post-classical: its pass. part. n. occurs in the Mgh, in art. بنى.] b2: اِسْتَفْصَحْتُهُ عَنْ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) [I asked him, or desired him, to explain such a thing: see 4, latter half]. (O and K in art. سنح.) فَصْحٌ: see فَصِيحٌ.

(Msb, TA.) فَصِيحٌ Milk divested of the froth, (S, A,) and clear of its biestings; (A:) or milk that has come after the ceasing of the biestings; as also ↓ فِصْحٌ. (Lh, TA.) b2: [And hence,] (tropical:) Chaste, as meaning free from barbarousness: applied in this sense to a word, or an expression, and to language in general, and to a speaker, or writer: i. e.,] as applied to a word, or an expression, it means [free from an incongruous combination of letters and from strangeness and from contrariety to analogy not sanctioned by frequency of usage among the Arabs of pure speech; (see فَصَاحَةٌ, below:) or] of which the beauty is perceived by hearing: (K:) and as applied to language in general, [free from weakness of construction and from incongruity of works, with فَصَاحَة (which see again) in the words themselves:] as used by the vulgar, it means in which the rules of desinential syntax are observed: syn. مُعْرَبٌ: (L;) [and sometimes it means] eloquent; syn. بَلِيغٌ. [from which it is properly distinct]: (S:) and as applied to a man, [possessing a faculty whereby he is enabled to express what he desires, with فَصَاحَة (which see again) in languages or] clear, perspicuous, or distinct, in speech, or language; as also ↓ فَصْحٌ; (K;) but this latter is an intensive epithet, [being originally an inf. n.,] like عَدْلٌ: (TA:) [and sometimes it signifies] eloquent; syn. بَلَيغٌ [respecting which see what precedes]: (S, A:) or مُنْطَلِقُ اللِّسَانِ [i. e. free from impediment of the tongue, or eloquent, or chaste,] in speech, who knows how to distinguish what is good in language from what is bad: (TA;) the pl. as applied to men is فُصَحَآءِ and فِصَاحٌ and فُصُحٌ, (K, TA,) the last formed in the manner of the broken pl. of a subst., like قُضُبٌ pl. of قَضِيبٌ: (Sb, TA:) the fem. is فَصِيحَةٌ; of which the pl. is فِصَاحٌ and فَصَائِحُ. (K, TA.) And you say رَجُلٌ فَصِيحُ اللِّسَانِ (assumed tropical:) A man whose tongue speaks Arabic correctly. (Msb.) And لِسَانٌ فَصِيحٌ i. q. طَلْقٌ (assumed tropical:) [A tongue free from impediment, or eloquent, or chaste in speech]: (S:) or (tropical:) an eloquent tongue. (A.) And فَصِيحٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) Any one having the faculty of speech; (S;) [i. e.] a human being; (TA:) أَعْجَمُ meaning that which is “ destitute of the faculty of speech; ” (S;) [i. e.] “ a beast; ” as also صَامتٌ: whence the saying, لَهُ مَالٌ فَصِيحٌ وَصَامِتٌ (tropical:) [as though meaning He has property consisting of human beings and of beasts: but see صَامِتٌ]. (TA.) And it also occurs in poetry as meaning (assumed tropical:) Clear, applied to the cry of an ass.

(A.) b2: And [hence] one says, فَعَلْتُهُ عَمْدًا عَلَى عَيْنٍ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and عَمْدَ عَيْنٍ, (S, A, O, Msb, K,) I did it seriously, or in earnest, and with certain knowledge, or assurance. (S, A, O, Msb, K. [See also عَيْنٌ.]) When a man sees a bodily form and imagines it to be an object of the chase and therefore shoots at it, he cannot use this phrase, for he only aims at what is an object of the chase in his imagination: so says Sgh. (Msb.) A3: عَمَدَهُ, (S, O, L, K,) aor. ـِ (L,) said of disease, (S, O, L,) It pressed heavily upon him, or oppressed him; (S, O, L, K;) on the authority of IAar: (TA:) and so said of straitness, or confinement, or imprisonment, and captivity; (O;) and it caused him to fall; (O, K;) in this sense in like manner said of confinement, &c.: (O:) also, (O, K,) said of a disease, (O,) it pained him. (O, K.) And عَمَدَهُ, (K, TA,) aor., in this case, عَمُدَ, (TA, [but this, I think, requires confirmation,]) It grieved him, or made him sorrowful. (K, TA.) One says, مَا عَمَدَكَ What has grieved thee, or made thee sorrowful? (TA.) A4: عَمِدَ, (S, O, L, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. عَمَدٌ, (S, O,) said of earth, It became moistened by rain so that when a portion of it was grasped in the hand it became compacted by reason of its moisture: (S, O, L, K:) or it became moistened by rain and compacted, layer upon layer. (L.) And عَمِدَتِ الأَرْضُ, inf. n. as above, The land became moistened by the rain's sinking into the earth so that when a portion of it was grasped in the hand it became compacted by reason of its moisture. (Az.) b2: Also, (inf. n. as above, L,) said of a camel, He had the inner part of his hump broken [or bruised] by being [much] ridden, while the outer part remained whole, or sound: (S, O, L, K:) or he had his hump swollen in consequence of the galling of the saddle and the cloth beneath it, and broken [or bruised]: whence عَمِيدٌ and مَعْمُودٌ as epithets applied to a man. (L.) And عَمِدَتْ أَلْيَتَاهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوبِ His buttocks became swollen, and quivered, or throbbed, in consequence of [long and hard] riding. (En-Nadr, O, K.) And عَمِدَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, said of a pustule, It became swollen in consequence of its having been squeezed before it had become ripe, and its egg [or white globule] did not come forth.

One says, عَمِدَ عَلَيْهِ He was angry with him. (T, L.) b5: [And He wondered.] One says, أَنَا أَعْمَدُ مِنْهُ I wonder at him, or it: (S, O, L, K:) or, as some say, I am angry at him, or it: and some say that it means I lament at, or complain of, him, or it. (L.) أَعْمَدُ مِنْ سَيِّدٍ قَتَلَهُ قَوْمُهُ (S, O, L) i. e. Do I wonder at a chief whom his [own] people have slain? (L) was said by Aboo-Jahl (S, O, L) when he lay prostrated at Bedr; meaning, hath anything more happened than the slaughter of a chief by his [own] people? this is not a disgrace [to him]: he meant thereby that the destruction that befell him was a light matter to him: (A'Obeyd, L:) the saying is interrogative; (Sh, L;) أَعْمَدُ being app. contracted from أَأَعْمَدُ, by the suppression of one of the two hemzehs. (Az, L.) And أَعْمَدُ مِنْ كَيْلٍ مُحِّقَ, as related by A'Obeyd, [and thus in the O, in two copies of the S written مُحِقّ, and in a third copy omitted,] or مُحِقَ, without teshdeed, as seen by Az written in an old book, [i. e. Do I wonder at a measure incompletely filled?] is a saying of the Arabs, expl. in the book above alluded to, and, Az thinks, correctly, as meaning is it anything more than a measure incompletely filled? [and in a similar manner, but not so fully, expl. in two copies of the S and in the O:] or, accord. to IB, is it anything more than the fact of my measure's being incompletely filled? (L:) thus expl. also by ISk: and in a similar manner the saying of Aboo-Jahl. (From a marginal note in one of my copies of the S.) b6: عَمِدَ بِهِ means He kept, or clave, to it; (Ibn-Buzurj, O, K;) namely, a thing.

(O.) b2: See also 1, first sentence. b3: [عمّدهُ as used by the Christians, and held to be of Syriac origin, means He baptized him: see مَعْمُودِيَةٌ.]4 أَعْمَدَ see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: أَعْمَدَتَاهُ رِجْلَاهُ occurs in a trad. as meaning His legs rendered him عَمِيد, i. e. in such a state that he could not sit unless propped up by cushions placed at his sides: (L:) it is of the dial. of Teiyi, who say in like manner أَكَلُونِى البَرَاغِيثُ. (TA.) 5 تَعَمَّدَ see 1, former half, in five places.7 انعمد It became stayed, propped up, or supported; (S, O, L, K;) said of a wall, (L,) or other thing. (S, O, L.) 8 اِعْتَمَدْتُ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ I leaned, reclined, bore, or rested, upon the thing; stayed, propped, or supported, myself upon it. (S, O, L, Msb.) b2: and [hence] اعتمدت عَلَيْهِ فِى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I relied upon him in such a thing, or case; (S, O, L;) as also اِعْتَمَدْتُهُ. (L.) And اعتمدت عَلَى الكِتَابِ [and اعتمدت الكِتَابَ, and perhaps بِالكِتَابِ (see De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, sec. ed., i. 315),] (tropical:) I relied upon the book, and held to it: a metaphorical phrase, from the first above. (Msb.) b3: [Hence also the phrase, used by grammarians, يَعْتَمِدُ عَلَى مَا قَبْلَهُ (assumed tropical:) It is syntactically dependent upon what is before it; as, for instance, an enunciative upon its inchoative, an epithet upon the subst. which it qualifies, and an objective complement of a verb upon its verb. b4: اعتمد المَطَرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ, a phrase occurring in the K in art. نكح, app. meansThe rain rested upon the ground so as to soak into it: see عَمِدَ.] b5: اعتمد عَلَى السَّيْرِ He went, or journeyed, gently; went a gentle pace. (L in art. هود.) And اعتمد لَيْلَتَهُ He rode on journeying during his night. (A, O, K.) A2: See also 1, former half, in three places. b2: [اعتمدهُ بِكَذَا means قَصَدَهُ بِكَذَا i. e.

(TA.) And in like manner, أَنَا أُعْهِدُكَ مِنْ هَذٰا الأَمْرِ I hold thee, or make thee, secure from this thing. (TA.) Hence the term ↓ عُهْدَةٌ. (TA.) And the latter phrase signifies [also] I am responsible for thy security from this thing. (ISh, O, K.) 5 تعهّدهُ He renewed his acquaintance with it, or his knowledge of it; (S, O, L, Msb, K;) this is the proper signification; (Msb;) as also ↓ اعتهدهُ; (O, * L, K;) and ↓ تعاهدهُ; (L, K;) and ↓ عاهدهُ, inf. n. مُعَاهَدَةٌ: (L:) and he sought it, or sought for it or after it, it being absent from him; syn. تَفَقَّدَهُ; as also ↓ تعاهدهُ, and ↓ اعتهده: (K:) or تعهّدهُ and تفقّدهُ are used, by some, each in the place of the other; but accord. to Er-Rághib and many others, the former signifies he sought, or sought leisurely or repeatedly, to obtain knowledge of it, having known of it before; and the latter, he sought, or sought leisurely or repeatedly, to obtain knowledge of it, having lost it: (MF in art. فقد:) or تعهّدهُ signifies he renewed his acquaintance with it, or his knowledge of it, and sought, or sought leisurely or repeatedly, to find means of rectifying it, reforming it, or putting it into a good or right or proper state: (IDrst, TA:) or he came to it, and rectified it, reformed it, or put it into a good or right or proper state: (Mgh:) or as first expl. above, and also he returned to it time after time, or went frequently to it, and rectified it, reformed it, or put it into a good or right or proper state: (Msb:) or, simply, [as also ↓ تعاهدهُ,] he returned, or recurred, to it time after time, [see an instance voce أَخْرَقُ,] or went frequently to it: (Et-Tedmuree, TA:) and also [i. e. both signify also he paid repeated, or frequent, attention to it; or] he was careful, or mindful, of it; or attentive to it. (S, O, Msb. *) One says also, تَعَهَّدْتُ فُلَانًا [I renewed my acquaintance with such a one; repaired, or betook myself, to him frequently; paid frequent attention to him; or simply paid attention to him]. (S, O.)

(AHát, TA.) One also says, of a man, يَتَعَهَّدُهُ صَرْعٌ [Epilepsy befalls him repeatedly, or time after time].

(Mgh.) and مَتَى عَهْدُكَ بِأَسْفَلِ فِيكَ [When didst thou see the lower part of thy mouth?]: a prov.; said in asking a person respecting an old affair of which he has no knowledge. (L.)

وَلٰكِنْ أَحَاطَتْ بِالرِّقَابِ السَّلَاسِلُ [And it is not like the formerly-known state of the abode, O Umm-Málik; but chains have surrounded the necks;] is expl. as meaning, the case is not as thou knewest it; but El-Islám has come, and has subverted that case.

الفَقْدُ [as inf. n. of فُقِدَ, though often used as meaning the being non-existent, properly] signifies the thing's being absent from the range of perception by sense so that its place is not known. (Bd in xii. 71.) [فُقِدَ signifies It was not found, was lost, was not seen, &c.] It is related of Abu-dDardà that he said, يَفْقِدْ ↓ مَنْ يَتَفَقَّدْ, [lit. He who seeks will not find,] meaning he who seeks after good in mankind will not find it; for he saw good to be rare in mankind: or he who seeks to acquaint himself with the circumstances of men will not find what will please him. (L.) 4 أَفْقَدَهُ اللّٰهُ إِيَّاهُ God caused him to lose, or fail of finding, him, or it. (L, K.) One says, أَفْقَدَكَ اللّٰهُ كُلَّ جَمِيمٍ [May God cause thee to lose every relation, or loved and loving relation]. (A.) [Or]

الإِفْقَادُ is not of established authority: as to the saying الجُنُونُ يُفْقِدُ شَهْوَةَ الجِمَاعِ [meaning Insanity causes to lose, or annuls, the desire of coïtus], the correct word is يُعْدِمُ or يُزِيلُ. (Mgh.) 5 تفقّدهُ He sought it, or sought for it or after it; or did so leisurely or repeatedly; (A, * Mgh, L;) as also ↓ افتقدهُ: (Mgh, L:) or he sought it, or sought for it or after it, it being absent from him; (S, O, L, Msb, K;) as also ↓ افتقدهُ: (K:) or he sought, or sought leisurely or repeatedly, to obtain knowledge of it, having lost it: so accord. to Er-Rághib and many others; but this expression and تعَهَّدَهُ are used, by some, each in the place of the other, and the latter, accord. to Er-Rághib and many others, [properly] signifies he sought, or sought leisurely or repeatedly, to obtain knowledge of it, having known it before. (MF.) You say, ↓ مَا تَفَقَّدْتُهُ مُنْذُ افْتَقَدْتُهُ, meaning منذ فَقَدْتُهُ [i. e. I have not sought for, or after, him, or it, since I lost him, or it. (B, TA.) See also 1, last sentence. b2: [Also He investigated it.]6 تفاقدوا means فَقَدَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا [i. e. They lost one another]. (S, O, K.) 8 إِفْتَقَدَ see 1: b2: and see also 5, in three places.

الفَقْدُ, (O, K,) by Az, (K,) or in a number of the copies of the work of Az, (O,) erroneously written الفَقَدُ, (O, K,) A certain plant, (K,) resembling the [species of cuscuta, or dodder, called]

كَشُوث: (TA:) and a beverage prepared from raisins or honey or [the plant] كشوث, as also ↓ الفُقْدُدُ: (K:) or, as AHn says, a certain plant which is thrown into the beverage of honey, which beverage consequently becomes strong, and is then called الفَقْدُ: he says, the فَقْد is what is called in Pers\. فَنْجَنْكُشْت: IAar says, ↓ الفِقْدَةُ [or الفَقْدَةُكشوث ?

then. un.] is the كشوث: and a beverage prepared from raisins and honey; and it is said that a beverage (نَبِيذ) is made of honey, and then the فَقْد is thrown into it, and causes it to become strong: so says Lth: and he says that the فَقْد is a plant resembling the كشوث: and ↓ الفُقْدُدُ is the نَبِيذ of the كشوث. (O.) الفَِقْدَةُ: see the next preceding paragraph.

الفُقْدُدُ: see الفَقْدُ, in two places.

فَقِيدٌ and ↓ مَفْقُودٌ signify the same, (O, Msb, K,) [Not found, lost, not seen, missed, non-existent,] absent from one, (Mgh in explanation of the latter,) not had, lacking or lacked, wanting or wanted. (Msb, K.) One says, مَاتَ غَيْرَ فَقِيدٍ وَلَا حَمِيدٍ, (A, K,) and وَلَا مَحْمُودٍ ↓ غَيْرَ مَفْقُودٍ, (A,) [He died unmissed and unpraised; or,] without his loss being cared for [and without being praised]. (A, K.) فَاقِدٌ [as act. part. n. of 1 signifies Not finding a thing, losing it, not seeing it, missing it, not having it, being destitute of it, lacking it, or wanting it; or having failed to find it, having lost it, or having failed to see it. b2: And hence,] A woman who is bereft of her child [by death]: (A 'Obeyd:) or who loses (تَفْقِدُ) her husband or child: (S, O:) or whose husband, or child, (L, K, TA,) or relation, or loved and loving relation, (TA,) has died: (L, K, TA:) or who marries after the death of her husband. (Lth, L, K.) The Arabs say, لَا تَتَزَوَّجَنَّ فَاقِدًا وَتَزَوَّجْ مُطَلَّقَةً [Do not thou marry a woman whose husband has died, but [rather] marry thou a divorced woman]. (Lh, L.) b3: And in like manner, (O,) it is applied also to a she-gazelle, (S, O, L,) and to a cow [app. a wild cow], (O, L, K,) as also فَاقِدَةٌ, (O,) meaning Whose young one has been devoured by a beast, or bird, of prey; (O, L, K;) and to a pigeon (حَمَامَة) likewise. (L.) مَفْقُودٌ: see فَقِيدٌ, in two places.

1 قَرَظَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. قَرْظٌ, He tanned it, (Msb, TA,) namely, a skin, or hide, (Msb,) or a skin for water or milk, (TA,) with قَرَظ, q. v. infra: (Msb, TA:) or he dyed it therewith. (TA.) b2: He plucked it, or gathered it, from the tree; namely, what is called قَرَظ. (Msb.) A2: قَرَظْتُهُ a dial. var. of قَرَضْتُهُ, in the phrase قَرَظْتُهُ ذَاتَ الشِّمَالِ, q. v. (Fr, K.) b2: And [in like manner as a dial. var. of قَرَضْتُهُ,] I cut it, or made it and cut it according to a measure and pattern. (Fr.) A3: قَرِظَ, aor. ـَ He was, or became, a lord, master, chief, or man of rank or quality, after being in a base or abject state. (IAar, O, K; and T in art. قرض.) 2 قرّظهُ, inf. n. تَقْرِيظٌ, He took extraordinary pains, or exceeded the usual degree, in tanning it, namely, a skin, or hide, with قَرَظ.

(K.) And فُلَانٌ يُقَرِّظُ صَاحِبَهُ, and يُقَرِّضُهُ, (tropical:) Such a one praises his companion, falsely or truly. (Az, S, TA.) And يُقَرِّظُنِى بِمَا لَيْسَ فِىَّ (tropical:) [He praises me for that which is not in me]. (TA, from a trad.) b3: And He praised him immoderately: like فرّطهُ. (O in art. فرط.) b4: Also, [like قرّضهُ,] (assumed tropical:) He dispraised him: (Kitáb el-Addád, cited by Freytag:) or it relates only to praise and good; but تَقْرِيضٌ relates to good and to evil. (TA in art. قرض.) 6 هُمَا يَتَقَارَظَانِ المَدْحَ (tropical:) They two praise each other; (S, K, TA;) from 2 in the first of the senses assigned to it above; each embellishing the other like as the قَارِظ embellishes the skin, or hide; (Z, TA;) and يتقارضان is like it: (TA;) and you say also, هُمَا يَتَقَارَظَانِ الخَيْرَ والشَّرَّ [They two interchange good and evil, each with the other]; as also يتقارضان: (IKh, in TA, art. قرض:) or تَقَارُظٌ relates only to praise and good; but تَقَارُضٌ, to good and evil. (TA.) قَرَظٌ, accord. to some, (Msb,) The leaves of the سَلَم [mimosa flava], (Lth, S, Mgh, K,) with which they tan; (Lth, S, Mgh;) but this assertion is [said to be] inaccurate; for the leaves are called خَبَط, and camels are fed with them, and they are not used for tanning: some say, that it is a kind of tree; but this also is inaccurate; for one says, “I plucked, or gathered, قَرَظ; ” and trees are not plucked, or gathered: (Msb:) AHn [contradicts this, however, for he applies this word to a kind of tree, and] says, it is the best of things with which hides are tanned in the land of the Arabs; and these are tanned with its leaves and its fruit: [the pods of the سَنْط, which is also called قَرَظ, are used for tanning;] and in one place he says, it is a large kind of trees, having thick stems (سوق [app. a mistranscription for شَوْك, thorns,]) resembling the walnut-tree, [in the Mgh, evidently from the same source, “or, as some say, a large kind of trees, having thick thorns (شوْك), resembling the walnut-tree,”] the leaves of which are smaller than those of the apple-tree, and it has grains which are put into balances [for weights, like as are those of the carob-tree]: it grows in the low plains: (TA:) or a kind of tree, whereof the سَنْط [mimosa Nilotica, also called acacia Nilotica,] is a species: (M, K, in art. سنط:) [or,] correctly speaking, it is [the fruit, or seed with its pericarp, of that tree;] a well-known grain, which comes forth in envelopes, like lentils, from the trees called عِضَاه; (Msb;) or, [to speak more precisely,] the fruit of the سَنْط, whence is expressed أَقَاقِيَا [acacia, i. e. succus acaciæ]; (K;) which is termed عُصَارَةُ القَرَظِ, [and when inspissated, رُبُّ القَرَظِ,] and has an acrid property; the best thereof is that which is sweet in odour, heavy, hard, and green; and it strengthens relaxed members, when cooked in water, and poured upon them: (Ibn-Jezleh, TA:) [the last application is that which commonly obtains in the present day: see also 'Abd-el-Lateef, pp. 48-52 of the Arabic text, and De Sacy's translation and notes:] the n. un. is قَرَظَةٌ: (AHn, Mgh, Msb:) and the dim. of this is قُرَيْظَةٌ. (AHn, Msb.) Hence بِلَادُ القَرَظِ, applied to El-Yemen, because the قَرَظ grows there [most plentifully]. (S.) See also صَمْعٌ.

قَرَظِىٌّ The dye (صِبْغ [a mistranscription for دِبْع i. e. tan]) of the قَرَظ. (TA.) b2: See also مَقْرُوظٌ. b3: إِبِلٌ قَرَظِيَّةٌ Camels that eat قَرَظ. (TA.) b4: كبش قَرَظِىٌّ and قُرَظِىٌّ A ram of El-Yemen; because the قَرَظ grows there [most plentifully]. (S, K.) قَرَّاظٌ A seller of قَرَظ. (Msb, K.) قَارِظٌ A plucker, or gatherer, of قَرَظ. (S, Msb, K.) It is said in a proverb, (S,) لَا آتِيكَ أَوْ يَؤُوبُ القَارِظُ العَنَزِىُّ [I will not come to thee unless the gatherer of قرظ, of the tribe of 'Anazeh, return]: (S, K, but in the latter العنزى is omitted:) and Aboo-Dhu-eyb says, وَحَتَّى يَؤُوبَ القَارِظَانِ كِلَاهُمَا [And until the two gatherers of قرظ return, each of them]: (S:) the قَارِظَانِ were two men of the tribe of 'Anazeh, who went forth in search of قَرَظ, and did not return. (S, K.) We also find in the M, لَا آتِيكَ القَارِظَ العَنَزِىَّ, i. e. I will not come to thee as long as the gatherer of قرظ, of the tribe of 'Anazeh, is absent: القارظ العنزى being made to occupy the place of الدَّهْرَ, and being put in the accus. case as an adverbial expression, by an extension of the signification, of which there are parallel instances. (TA.) تَقْرِيظ: see 2. [Used as a subst., (tropical:) An encomium, or eulogy, on a living person: pl. تَقَارِيظُ and تَقْرِيظَاتٌ.]

مُقْرَظٌ: see what next follows.

مَقْرُوظٌ A skin, or hide, tanned with قَرَظ; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ قَرَظِىٌّ; and AHn mentions, on the authority of Aboo-Mis-hal, ↓ مُقْرَظٌ, as though from أَقْرَظَهُ, which, he says, we have not heard: (TA:) or dyed therewith. (K.) قرع قرف See Supplement

(Az, TA.) [See also شَصَرٌ.] b2: A youth, or young man.

Accord. to Er-Rághib, يَشْفَعُ means He joins himself to another, and aids him, becoming to him one of a pair, or a شَفِيع [i. e. an intercessor], in doing good or evil, so that he aids him, or partakes with him, in [procuring] the benefit or the harm thereof; and thus it means in the saying in the Kur [iv. 87], مَنْ يَشْفَعْ شَفَاعَةً حَسَنَةً [and in what follows the same]: (TA:) or these words mean Whoso adds a [good] deed to a [good] deed: (O, K:) or, as some say, the شفاعة here is a man's instituting, or prescribing, to another, a way of good or evil, so that he [the latter] imitates him, and thus becomes as though he were to him one of a pair. (TA.) [But accord. to the expositors in general, and accord. to the general usage of the inf. n. شَفَاعَةٌ as distinguished from شَفْعٌ, what is here meant is Intercession.] b4: [Hence also,] شَفَعَ لَهُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ, (S, * K, * TA,) or الى الأَمِيرِ, (MA,) aor. ـَ (K, TA,) inf. n. شَفَاعَةٌ; (MA, K, TA;) and لَهُ ↓ تشفّع, (MA,) or فِيهِ ↓ تشفّع; (S, TA;) He made petition, or intercession, for him [to such a one, or to the prince or the like; thus adjoining himself to him as an aider]: (MA, TA:) and شَفَعَ بَيْنَ النَّاسِ [He interceded between the people], inf. n. شَفَاعَةٌ: (Jel in iv. 87:) and شَفَعْتُ فِى الأَمْرِ, (Msb,) inf. n. شَفَاعَةٌ (IKtt, Msb, TA) and شَفْعٌ, (Msb, [but the latter is scarcely to be found elsewhere thus used,]) I pleaded, [or interceded,] in the affair, or case, [in favour of another,] for some means of access or ingratiation, or some right or due: (IKtt, * Msb, TA: *) شَفَاعَةٌ is mentioned, but not explained, in the K: (TA:) as distinguished from شَفْعٌ meaning as expl. above, it signifies the joining oneself to another as an aider to him or a petitioner respecting him [or for him]; and in most instances the former person is one of higher station than the latter: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or the speaking of the شَفِيع [or intercessor] to the king [or some other person] respecting some object of want which the speaker asks for another person: it is also expl. as signifying the passing over without punishment, or the forgiving, [or rather the asking, or requesting, the passing over &c., (for the word طَلَبُ, probably accidentally omitted by the transcriber at the commencement of the explanation, should doubtless be supplied,)] of sins, crimes, or misdeeds. (TA.) Hence, in a trad., ↓ اِشْفَعْ تُشَفَّعْ [Intercede thou: thou shalt have thine intercession accepted]. (TA.) The saying in the Kur [ii. 117], وَلَا تَنْفَعُهَا شَفَاعَةٌ [Nor shall intercession profit it] means that it shall have no شَافِع [or intercessor] for his شَفَاعَة [or intercession] to profit it; being a denial of the شَافِع; (Ibn-'Arafeh, O, K;) and the same is the case in the Kur lxxiv. 49, (Ibn-'Arafeh, O, TA,) and xx.

108. (TA.) شَفَعَ, inf. n. شَفْعٌ and شَفَاعَةٌ, also signifies He prayed, or supplicated: and thus Mbr and Th explain the words of the Kur [ii. 256], مَنْ ذَا الَّذِى يَشْفَعُ عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِ [Who is he that shall pray, or supplicate, in his presence, except by his permission?]. (TA.) b5: Accord. to El-Kutabee, (Mgh,) [i. e.] El-Kuteybee, (TA,) one says also, of a neighbour of one who desires to sell a dwelling [or land] شَفَعَ إِلَيْهِ فِى مَا بَاعَ, meaning He made a demand to him, i. e. to the latter, respecting that which he sold [for the right of pre-emption]: and of the latter person, ↓ فَشَفَّعَهُ [and he admitted his right of pre-emption, i. e.] and he pronounced him to have a better right, or title, or claim, [as a purchaser,] to that which was sold, that he whose connexion was more remote. (Mgh, TA. *) A2: شَفَعَ, inf. n. شَفْعٌ, signifies also He, or it, was, or became, tall, or high. (TA.) A3: And شُفِعَ, like عُنِىَ, He (a man) was smitten by the [evil] eye. (IKtt, TA. [But see شُفْعَةٌ, last sentence.]) 2 شَفَّعَ see 1, near the beginning. b2: شَفَّعْتُهُ فِيهِ, inf. n. تَشْفِيعٌ, I accepted his intercession (شَفَاعَتَهُ) [for him]. (S, * O, K.) See, again, 1, in the last quarter of the paragraph. b3: And see another signification of the verb in a later part of the same paragraph.5 تشفّع [signifies It was made a pair or couple, accord. to the K voce وِتْرٌ; this word being there expl. as meaning مَا لَمْ يَتَشَفَّعْ مِنَ العَدَدِ: but in the M and A, in the same place, instead of يَتَشَفَّعْ, we find يُشْفَعْ]. b2: تشفّع لَهُ, and فِيهِ: see 1, near the middle of the paragraph. b3: [It is said in the TA that تَشَفَّعَهُ also is quasi-pass. of اِسْتَشْفَعَ بِهِ: but تَشَفَّعَهُ is evidently, here, a mistranscription, app. for تَشَفَّعَ, meaning He was granted intercession.]

A2: Also He became a شَافِعِىّ [i. e. a follower of the Imám Esh-Sháfi'ee] in persuasion: but this is post-classical. (TA.) 10 اِسْتَشْفَعْتُهُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ I asked him to make intercession for me (أَنْ يَشْفَعَ لِى) to such a one. (S, O, K. *) And اِسْتَشْفَعْتُ بِهِ I sought, or demanded, intercession (الشَّفَاعَةَ) [by means of him]. (Msb.) A poet, cited by Aboo-Leylà, says, زَعَمَتْ مَعَاشِرُ أَنَّنِى مُسْتَشْفِعٌ لَمَّا خَرَجْتُ أَزُورُهُ أَقْلَامَهَا i. e. Companies of men asserted me to be seeking intercession (زَعَمُوا أَنِى أَسْتَشْفِعُ) for the object of eulogy, [when I went forth repairing to visit him,] by means of their writing-reeds (بِأَقْلَامِهِمْ), meaning by their letters (بِكُتُبِهِمْ). (O, TA.) شَفْعٌ contr. of وِتْرٌ; (S, Mgh, O, K;) i. q. زَوْجٌ [i. e., like زَوْجٌ, it signifies One of a pair or couple; and sometimes, but rarely, a pair or couple together; and sometimes, (see for instance زَكَا) an even number, a number that may be divided into two equal numbers]: (O, K:) also one with which another is made to be a pair or couple: (TA:) [and, as will be seen in what follows, one with which an odd number is made to be an even number:] pl. شِفَاعٌ, (TA,) and app. أَشْفَاعٌ, whence الصَّلَاةُ بَيْنَ الأَشْفَاعِ, meaning التَّرَاوِيح [q. v. voce تَرْوِيحَةٌ]. (Mgh.) b2: الشَّفْعُ also signifies The day of the sacrifice; (O, K;) thus in the words of the Kur [lxxxix. 2] وَالشَّفْعِ وَالْوِتْرِ; by الوتر being meant the day of 'Arafát: (O:) or in this instance it means the creatures of God, (O, K,) because of the saying in the Kur [li. 49], “and of everything we have created two of a pair; ” (K;) الوتر meaning God: (O, K:) or Adam's wife; الوتر meaning Adam, who was made a pair with her: (I'Ab, O, TA:) or Adam's children: (TA:) or the two days after the sacrifice; الوتر meaning the third day: (O, TA:) or God; [and الوتر, those who compose an odd number;] because of the saying in the Kur [lviii. 8], “there can be no secret discourse of three, but He is the maker of them, with Himself, to be four: ” (K:) or the meaning of الشَّفْعُ وَالوِتْرُ is the prayers; of which some are شَفْع [i. e. an even number of rek'ahs], and some are وِتْر [i. e. an odd number of rek'ahs]: (O, TA:) [for] it is said that all the numbers consist of شَفْع [i. e. even] and وِتْر [i. e. odd]. (TA.) شَفْعَةٌ: see the next paragraph, in two places, near the end.

شُفْعَةٌ is used in relation to a house and to land; (S, TA;) and ↓ شُفُعَةٌ, with two dammehs, is a dial. var. thereof thus used. (TA.) It signifies A مِلْك [here meaning house, or piece of land,] that is coupled (مَشْفُوع) [by purchase] with one's مِلْك [i. e. house, or piece of land, previously possessed, and adjoining thereto]; (Mgh, Msb; *) from the phrase كَانَ وِتْرًا فَشَفَعْتُهُ [expl. above, in the second sentence of this art.]; (Mgh; [and the like is said in the Msb;]) a noun of the same class as لُقْمَةٌ; being of the measure فُعْلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ: (Mgh, Msb: *) this is the primary signification: then it was applied to denote a particular kind of obtaining possession; (Mgh;) [i. e.] it is also used as meaning the obtaining possession of that مِلْك [or house, or piece of land, by purchasing it, and coupling it with that previously possessed, and adjoining thereto]; (Msb;) or one's making a demand respecting that which he seeks [to possess, for the right of the pre-emption thereof], and adjoining it to that which he [already] has: (O, K:) and with the lawyers it signifies the right of obtaining possession of a piece of land, [i. e. the right of pre-emption thereof, or of a house,] against one's co-sharer whose possession is recent, by compulsion, for a compensation: (K:) or the right of obtaining possession of a piece of land, by compulsion, for [the payment of] what it cost the [former] purchaser, by reason of partnership or of [immediate] neighbourship: (KT:) or the right of [immediate] neighbourship with respect to [pre-emption of] a house or land. (PS.) [See 1 in art. سقب.] El-Kutabee says, in explaining this word, in the Time of Ignorance, when a man desired to sell a house, his neighbour used to come to him and to make a demand to him (شَفَعَ

إِلَيْهِ i. e. طَلَبَ) respecting that which he sold [ for the right of pre-emption], and he pronounced him to have a better right, or title, or claim, [as a purchaser,] to that which was sold, than he whose connexion was more remote: as though he took it from الشَّفَاعَةُ: but the [right] derivation is that first mentioned. (Mgh.) We have not heard, (Mgh,) or there is not known, (Msb,) any verb belonging to it [in the classical language]. (Mgh, Msb.) Esh-Shaabee uses it in the first and in the second of the senses expl. above, [or nearly so,] in his saying, مَنْ بِيعَتْ شُفْعَتُهُ وَهُوَ حَاضِرٌ فَلَمْ يَطْلُبْ ذٰلِكَ فَلَا شُفْعَةَ لَهُ [i. e. He whose claimed possession to be coupled by purchase with one already belonging to him is sold when he is present without his demanding that possession, there shall be no obtaining possession for him by his purchasing it for that purpose]. (Mgh. [And the like is said in the Msb.]) Esh-Shaabee says [also], الشُّفْعَةُ عَلَى رُؤُوسِ الرِجَالِ [The possession that is coupled by purchase with another possession is apportioned according to the heads of the men entitled thereto]: i. e., when the house is shared by a company of men whose shares are different, and one of them sells his portion, what is sold to his co-sharers is to be apportioned among them equally, according to their heads, not according to their [former] shares: (O, K, TA:) so in the Nh. (TA.) b2: شُفْعَةُ الضُّحَى The two rek'ahs (رَكْعَتَانِ) of the [prayer that is performed in the period of the morning called the]

ضُحَى; as also الضحى ↓ شَفْعَةُ: (O, K:) occurring in a trad., thus accord. to two different relations. (O.) A2: Also Diabolical, or demoniacal, possession; or madness, or insanity; (AA, O, K;) and so ↓ شَفْعَةٌ; the latter expl. in this sense by IAar; and as syn. with سَفْعَةٌ and شُنْعَةٌ and رَدَّةٌ and نَظْرَةٌ, [perceived] in the face: [see these words; the second and third of which generally mean an unseemliness or ugliness; and so, sometimes, does the last:] the pl. of شُفْعَةٌ in the sense here expl. on the authority of AA is شُفَعٌ. (TA.) b2: and IF states that it has been said to signify The [evil] eye, by which one is smitten: but he doubts its correctness; and thinks that it may be with the unpointed س. (O.) [See سَفْعَةٌ, not سُفْعَةٌ.]

شُفُعَةٌ: see شُفْعَةٌ, first sentence.

شَفُوعٌ A she-camel that fills two milking-vessels in one milking. (S, K.) b2: See also شَافِعٌ.

شَفِيعٌ i. q. صَاحِبُ شَفَاعَةٍ; (S, K, TA;) i. e. (TA) An intercessor; as also ↓ شَافِعٌ: pl. of the former شُفَعَآءُ. (Msb, TA.) [See السُّقَفَآء, in art. سقف.] b2: Also i. q. صَاحِبُ شُفْعَةٍ; (S, K;) [meaning A possessor of the right termed شُفْعَة; or] one who demands, and is granted, as a neighbour [or a partner], in preference to him whose connexion is more remote, the right of purchasing a house [or piece of land] that is to be sold. (TA.) شَفَائِعُ Sorts of pasture, or herbage, that grow two and two: (Ibn-Abbád, O, K:) or twins (تُؤَام [pl. of تَوْءَم]) of plants. (O, K.) شَافِعٌ [act. part. n. of 1, q. v. b2: Hence], applied to a she-camel, (tropical:) Having a young one in her belly and another following her: (Fr, Sh, S, Mgh, K, TA:) or applied in this sense to a ewe or she-goat: (K:) or, thus applied, having her young one with her: (A'Obeyd, S, Mgh:) thus called because her young one has made her to be one of a pair [with it], or because she has made it to be one of a pair [with her]: (A'Obeyd, S, K:) and ↓ شَفُوعٌ, thus applied, signifies the same as شَافِعٌ: and one says also, هٰذِهِ شَاةُ الشَّافِعِ, like as one says صَلَاةُ الأُولَى and مَسْجِدُ الجَامِعِ. (TA.) b3: Also A he-goat, (O, K, TA,) himself: (O:) or a ram: or such as, when he impregnates, impregnates with twins. (O, K.) b4: عَيْنٌ شَافِعَةٌ An eye [that makes a thing to appear a pair, i. e.,] that sees doubly. (O, K.) b5: فُلَانٌ يُعَادِينِى وَلَهُ شَافِعٌ means (tropical:) Such a one treats me with enmity, and has one who aids him to do so. (A, TA.) b6: See also شَفِيعٌ and مُشَفَّعٌ.

أَشْفَعُ Tall, or high. (L, TA.) مُشْفِعٌ A ewe, or she-goat, that suckles any animal. (IAar, TA.) مُشَفَّعٌ One whose intercession is accepted: hence the Kur-án is termed by Ibn-Mes'ood مُشَفَّعٌ ↓ شَافِعٌ, i. e. An intercessor of which the intercession will be accepted, for him who follows it and does according to what is in it, that his unpremeditated transgressions may be forgiven. (O, TA.) مُشَفِعٌ One who accepts intercession. (L, TA.) مَشْفُوعٌ A possession (مِلْكٌ [here meaning house, or piece of land,]) coupled [by purchase] with a man's possession [previously belonging to him, upon certain conditions expl. voce شُفْعَةٌ]. (Mgh, Msb.) A2: Also Affected with diabolical, or demoniacal, possession; or with madness, or insanity; (O, K;) and مَسْفُوعٌ, with the unpointed س, is a dial. var. thereof. (TA.) b2: And مَشْفُوعَةٌ is said to signify A woman smitten by the [evil] eye: (IF, O, L: [but see شُفْعَةٌ, last sentence:]) the masc. is not used in this sense. (L, TA.)

عجر

1 عَجَرَ عُنُقَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَجْرٌ, He bent his neck, (ISk, S, O, K, TA,) and twisted it: said of one who desires not to comply with a command to do a thing: or عَجَرَ عُنُقَهُ إِلَى كَذَا وَكَذَا [he bent, and twisted, his neck, turning towards such and such things,] is said of one who is going in a particular direction, and returns from it to a thing behind him which he is forbidden: so in the Nawádir el-Aaráb. (TA.) b2: And one says, عَجَرَ بِهِ بَعِيرُهُ as though meaning His camel returned with him towards his usual associates and his family when he was desiring to ride him in a particular direction; as also عَكَرَ بِهِ. (ISk, S, O.) [See also the latter verb.] b3: And عَجَرَ الفَرَسُ, (S, O,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَجْرٌ and عَجَرَانٌ, (O,) The horse extended [or, accord. to an explanation of the act. part. n. in the L, raised] his tail towards his عَجُز [or. croup] in running. (S, O.) b4: and hence, (S,) مَرَّ الفَرَسُ يَعْجِرُ (S, O, K *) and يَعْجُرُ, (so in one of my copies of the S, and accord. to the TA,) inf. n. عَجْرٌ (S, K) and عَجَرَانٌ, (K,) The horse went along swiftly, (S, O, K, *) by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, (O,) or from fear and the like: and ↓ مُعَاجَرَةٌ is syn. with the inf. ns. of يَعْجِرُ used in this sense: (K:) [so that one says in like manner ↓ مَرَّ يُعَاجِرُ:] and one says also, الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ ↓ عاجر, meaning The man ran before the man, fleeing. (O, TA.) b5: عَجَرَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَجْرٌ, said of an ass, is syn. with قَمَصَ [app. as meaning He raised his fore legs together and put them down together, and beat the ground with his kind legs]: (K, TA:) and a similar action is signified by the phrase يَعْجِرُ بِرِجْلَيْهِ, inf. n. عَجَرَانٌ, [app. meaning He beats the ground with his kind legs, rearing while doing so], said of a horse.

الرَّجُلِ, meaning The man was importuned for his property, or was asked for it by many persons, so that it became little. (TA.) One says رَجُلٌ عَلَيْهِ ↓ مَعْجُورٌ meaning A man importuned by begging so that all his property has been taken from him. (K, * TA.)

(TA.) b2: And اعتجر He wound a turban round his head: (IF, S, Mgh, O, Msb:) and he wound a turban (or a piece of cloth, TA) upon his head without turning [a portion of] it beneath his lower jaw; (Az, El-Ghooree, Mgh, K, * TA;) as also اِقْتَعَطَ: the winding it in which manner [and so wearing it] in prayer, is forbidden: but another explanation, which is, he wound the turban upon his head so as to show the هَامَة [or crown of the head], is more probable; as it is from مِعْجَرٌ, meaning “ a piece of a cloth, like a fillet, wound upon the round of a woman's head. ” (Mgh.) One says, ↓ هُوَ حَسَنُ المُعْتَجَرِ He is comely in respect of the manner of winding the turban upon the head. (A.)

عَجُورٌ [A species of melon: accord. to Forskål, (Flora Aegypt. Arab., pp. lxxvi. and 168,) this name and عبدلّاوى are both applied to the cucumis chate: but accord. to Delile, (Floræ Aegypt. Illustr., no. 922,) the latter name is thus applied; and عجور (written by him as though it were عَجُّور, but it is without teshdeed,) is the name of the fruit of this species of cucumis while immature; so too says 'Abd-El-Lateef: (see De Sacy's Transl. and Notes, pp. 35 and 127; and p. 54 of the Ar. Text edited by White:) I have, however, found the name عَجُور to be commonly applied to a species different from the عَبْدَلَّاوِىّ, (which is also called عَبْدَلِّىّ, see art. عبد,) as Sonnini asserts it to be, (in his Travels in Upper and Lower Egypt, pp. 574 and 636 of the Engl.
