TA:) or ↓ إِرْفَالٌ [
inf. n. of 4] signifies a man's having a long garment, such as a skirt and a جُبَّة: (

T,
M,
K,) and a commander, and a judge: (
TA:) [like رَفَّدَهُ:] and he rendered him submissive; made him to submit; or brought him under, or into, subjection: (
M,
K:) thus it has two
contr. meanings; (
K;) [like تَرَّفَهُ;] for when a man is made judge in an affair, it is as though he were subjected to service therein. (
TA.) Dhu-r-Rummeh says, إِذَا نَحْنُ رَفَّلْنَا امْرَأً سَادَ قَوْمَهُ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ مِنْ قَبْلِ ذٰلِكَ يُذْكَرُ (assumed

b4: And تَرْفِيلٌ also signifies (
