ابن

1 أَبَنَهُ, aor. ـُ and اَبِنَ, inf. n. أَبْنٌ, He made him an object of imputation, or suspected him: and he found fault with him, or blamed him: (M:) or he cast a foul, or an evil, imputation upon him. (IAar, T.) You say, أَبَنَهُ بِشَىْءٍ, (S, K,) or بِشَّرٍ (as in one copy of the S,) or بِخَيْرٍوَشَّرٍ, (Lh, M,) aor. as above, (Lh, S, M, K,) and so the inf. n., (Lh, M,) He made him an object of imputation, or suspected him, (Lh, S, M, K,) of a thing, (S, K,) or of evil, (S, accord. to one copy,) or of good, and evil: (Lh, M:) and ↓ أبّنهُ signifies the same. (M.) And بِخَيْرٍ ↓ فُلَانٌ يُؤَبَّنُ, or بِشَّرٍ, Such a one is made an object of imputation, or suspected, of good, or of evil: (AA, * Lh, T [as in the TT; but perhaps يُؤَبَّنُ is a mistranscription for يُؤْبَنُ; for it is immediately added, فَهُوَ مَأْبُونٌ:]) when, however, you say يؤبن [i. e. يُؤْبَنُ or ↓ يُؤَبَّنٌ] alone, it relates to evil only. (AA, T. [But see 2.]) And فُلَانٌ يَؤَبَنُ بِكَذَا, or ↓ يُؤَبَّنُ, Such a one is evil spoken of by the imputation of such a thing. (S, accord. to different copies.) and it is said respecting the assembly of the Prophet, فِيهِ الحُرَمُ, ↓ لَا تُؤَبَّنُ, (T, and so in a copy of the S,) or لا تُؤْبَنُ, (so in some copies of the S,) i. e. Women (T) shall not be mentioned in an evil manner therein: (T, S:) or shall not have evil imputations cast upon them, nor be found fault with, nor shall that which is foul be said of them, nor that which ought not, of things whereof one should be ashamed. (IAar, T.) b2: Also, and ↓ أبّنهُ, (M, K,) inf. n. تَأْبِينٌ, (K,) He found fault with him, or blamed him, to his face; (M, K;) and he upbraided him, or reproached him. (M.) 2 أبّن الشَّىْءَ, (Az, S,) inf. n. تَأْبِينٌ, (K,) He watched, or observed, the thing; or he expected it, or waited for it. (Az, S, K.) b2: أبّن الأَثَرَ, (M,) inf. n. as above, (As, T, S, K,) He followed the traces, or footprints, or footsteps, (As, T, S, M, K,) of a thing; (As, S, K;) as also ↓ تأبّن. (K.) And hence the next signification. (As, T.) A2: أبّن الرَّجُلَ, (S, M,) inf. n. as above, (Sh, T, S, K,) He praised the man, or spoke well of him, (Sh, Th, T, S, M, K,) after his death, (Th, S, M, K,) or in death and in life, (Sh, T,) used in poetry to signify praise of the living; (M;) and wept for him: (S:) he praised him; and enumerated, or recounted, his good qualities or actions: you say, لَمْ يَزَلَ يُقَرِّظُ أَحْيَاكُمْ وَيُؤَبِّنُ مَوْتَاكُمْ [He ceased not to eulogize your living and to praise your dead]: (Z, TA:) for he who praises the dead traces his [good] deeds. (As, T.) b2: See also 1, in six places.5 تَاَبَّنَ see 2.

(TA.) b4: And (tropical:) Rancour, malevolence, malice, or spite: (K, TA:) and enmity: pl. as above. (TA.) You say, بَيْنَهُمْ أُبَنٌ (tropical:) (S, TA) Between them are enmities. (S.) b5: Also The [part called] غَلْصَمَة [meaning the epiglottis] of a camel. (M, K.) اِبْنَةٌ: see art. بنى

(M, K.) You say, أَخَذَ الشَّىْءَ بِإِبَّانِهِ He took the thing in its time: or in, or with, the first thereof. (M.) The ن is radical, so that it is of the measure فِعَّالٌ; or, as some say, augmentative, so that it is of the measure فِعْلَانٌ. (TA.) [See art. اب.]

مُؤَبَّنٌ occurs as meaning Dead, or dying; i. e., [properly,] wept for. (S.) [See 2.]

مُؤَبِّنٌ A praiser of the dead; because he traces his [good] deeds.
