A.) And it is said in a
prov., أَنْتَ كَصَاحِبِ البَعْرَةِ [Thou art like the owner of the piece of بعر, or أَنْتَ فِى مِثْلِ صَاحِبِ البَعْرَةِ Thou art in a condition like that of the owner of the piece of بعر; (meaning the person for whom it was intended;) applied to him who reveals a thing relating to himself; (see Freytag's Arab.
Prov. i. 85;)] originating from the fact that a man had a suspicion respecting some one among his people; so he collected them to search out from them the truth of the case, and took a piece of بعر, and said, “I am about to throw this my piece of بعر at the person whom I suspect;”
whereupon one of them withdrew himself quickly, and said, “Throw it not at me;” and confessed. (

بَعَرٌ: see بَعْرٌ.
بِعَارٌ, a
subst., [or
inf. n. of 3,] The befouling of her milker with her dung, by a ewe or she-goat, (
K,) or a camel: (
TA:) it is reckoned a fault, because the animal that does so sometimes casts her dung into the milking-vessel. (
TA.) بَعِيرٌ, (
S,
Msb,
K, &c.,) sometimes pronounced بَعِيرٌ, (
K,) which latter is of the
dial. of BenooTemeem, but the former is the more chaste, (
TA,) A camel, male or female; (
S,
Msb,
K;) as applied to a camel, like إِنْسَانٌ applied to a human being; (
S,
Msb;) whereas جَمَلٌ is applied only to a male camel, and نَاقَةٌ to a she-camel; بَكْرٌ and بَكْرَةٌ are respectively terms like فَتنًى and فَتَاةٌ; and قَلُوصٌ is like the term جَارِيَةٌ; so say, among others,
ISk and
Az and
IJ; and it is added in the Mutahffidh, that the terms جمل and ناقة are applied only when the animal has entered the seventh year: (
Msb:) but بعير is more commonly applied to the male camel; (
Msb,
K;) and only to one that has entered its fifth year; (
S,
K;) or that has entered its ninth year: (
K:) the
pl. is أَبْعِرَةٌ [a
pl. of pauc.] and بُعْرَانٌ (
S,
Msb,
K) and بِعْرَانٌ (
K) and بُعُرٌ (
TA) and (
pl. of أَبْعِرَةٌ
TA) أَبَاعِرُ (
S,
Msb,
K) and أَبَاعِيرُ (
K.) If one say, أَعْطُونِى بَعِيرًا [Give ye to me a بعير], the persons so addressed,
accord. to EshSháfi'ee, are not to give a she-camel: (
Msb:) but the following phrases are transmitted from the Arabs: صَرَعَتْنِى بَعِيرِى My she-camel threw me down prostrate: (
S, A:) and حَلَبْتُ بَعِيرِى I milked my camel: (
A,
Msb:) and شَرِبْتُ مِنْ لَبَنِ بَعِيرِى I drank of the milk of my camel: (
S:) and كِلَا هٰذِيْنِ البِعْرَيْنِ نَاقَةٌ Each of these two camels is a she-camel. (
A.) لَيْلَةُ البَعِيرِ [The night of the camel], mentioned in a
trad. of
Jábir, means the night in which the Prophet purchased of him his camel. (
TA.)
b2: Also An ass: (IKh,
K:) so in the
Kur xii. 72; but this signification is of rare occurrence: (IKh:) and anything that carries: (IKh,
K:) so in the Hebrew language [165 (see Gen. xlv. 17)]. (
TA.) بَاعِرٌ A widow throwing the piece of بَعْر; meaning ending the number of days during which she has had to wait after the death of her husband previously to her being allowed to marry again. (
A.) [See 1.]
مَبْعَرٌ and ↓ مِبْعَرٌ [and ↓ مَبْعَرَةٌ (occurring in the
K in art. خور)] The place [or passage (as is shown in the Lexicons in many places)] of the بَعْر; [i. e. the rectum; the intestine, or gut, containing the بَعْر;] of any quadruped: (
K:)

TA.) It is said in a
prov., إِنَّ هٰذَا الدَّاعِرَ مَا زَالَ يَنْحَرُ الأَبَاعِرَ وَ يَنْثِلُ المَبَاعِرَ [Verily this bad man has not ceased to slaughter camels and to cleanse the intestines containing the dung]. (
A,
TA.) مِبْعَرٌ: see مَبْعَرٌ مَبْعَرَةٌ: see مَبْعَرٌ مِبْعَارٌ A ewe or she-goat, (
K,) or a she-camel, (
TA,) that befouls with her dung (تُبَاعِرُ) her milker. (
K,
TA.) [See بِعَارٌ.]
