هو

أ1 هَآءَ بِنَفْسِهِ إِلى المَعَالِى, (S, K,) aor. ـُ (S,) inf. n. هَوْءٌ, (TA,) He raised his mind to high things, or objects; purposed, or aspired to, high things. (S, K, TA.) The vulgar say, يَهْوِى

بِنَفْسِهِ. (S.) b2: مَا هُؤْتُ هَوْءَهُ I did not know it, nor desire, or mean, [to do it; i. e., I did it not knowingly, nor intentionally]. (TA.) b3: هُؤْتُ بِهِ خَيْرًا, (Az, S, K) and شَرًّا, (K,) and حُؤْتُهُ بِخَيْرٍ, and بِشَرٍّ, (Lh,) inf. n. هَوْءٌ, (TA,) I thought him to be possessed of good, (Az, S, K,) and, of evil. (K, TA.) b4: هُؤْتُهُ بِمَالٍ كَثِيزٍ I thought him to be possessed of much wealth. (TA.) b5: إِنِّى لَأَهُؤْءُ بِكَ عَنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ Verily I exalt thee above this thing; I hold thee above it]. (Lh.) b6: هُؤْتُ بِهِ I rejoiced in him, or it. (AA, K.) b7: هَوِئَ إِلَيْهِ, aor. ـْ He purposed, or intended, it. (K.) A2: هَآءِ and هَآءَ and هَأْ, in imperative senses, and the forms into which they are inflected, see below.3 هاوأهُ He contended with him for superior glory: like هَاوَاهُ. (IAar.) [See also art. هوى.]

هَآءِ, هَآءَ, هَأْ, &c. b2: هَاءِ, with kesr, is syn. with هَاتِ, Give; [or changed from this verb;] and is thus inflected: sing. masc. هَآءِ, fem. هائِى; dual. masc. and fem. هَائِيَا; pl. masc. هَاؤُوا, fem.

هَائِينَ: (S, K: like هَاتُوا; هَاتِيَا; هَاتِى, هَاتِ, هَاتِينَ: ء holding the place of ت: S.) b3: But هَآءَ, with fet-h, is syn. with هَاكَ, Take; [or changed from this word;] and is thus inflected: sing. masc. هَآءَ, fem. هَآءِ, without ى; dual masc. and fem. هَاؤُمَا; pl. masc. هَاؤُمُ, [so in the K, and so I find it in one copy of the S: in another copy of the latter, هَاؤُمُ, as it is pronounced before a conjunctive ا; for instance, in the Kur, lxix, 19:] fem. هَاؤُنَّ, (S, K:) or هَاؤُمْنَ: (L:) [which last does not exactly correspond with the model هَاكُنَّ: but I think it most probable that هَاكُنَّ is changed by idghám from هَاكُمْنَ; and in like manner, that هَاؤُنَّ is changed from هَاؤُمْنَ:] (like هَاكَ, هَاكِ; هَاكُمَا; هَاكُمْ, هَاكُنَّ: هَوُاَ holding the place of ك: S:) also, sing. masc.

هَأْ (originally هَآءُ, S), fem. هَائِى; dual masc. (S) and fem. (S, K) هَاآ; (S, K;) pl. masc. هَاؤُوا, (S,) fem. هَأْنَ: (S, K:) also, sing. masc. and fem.

هَأْ; dual. masc. هَاآ, fem. هَائِيَا; pl. masc. هَاؤُوا, fem. هَاؤُنَّ. (TA.) b4: [See a saying of 'Omar cited voce رَمَآءٌ, in art. رمى.] b5: When it is said to thee هَآءَ Take, thou sayest مَا أَهَآءُ What shall I take? syn. مَا آخُذُ; and مَا أُهَآءُ, in the pass. form, What shall I receive, or be given? syn. مَا أُعْطَى. (S.) [Also, in the TA, it seems to be said that أَهَآءَ signifies أَعْطَى He gave, or made to take: but this is uncertain; as the former verb is there written اهاءَ, and the latter is without the syll. points]. b6: هَآءَ is also syn. with لبَّيْكَ At thy service! &c.. (K, TA.) A2: لَا هَآءَ اللّٰهِ ذَا, or, more chastely, لَا هَا اللّٰهِ ذَا, or the former is a barbarism; originally لَا وَاللّٰهِ هٰذَا: ها and ذا are separated, and the name of God is introduced between them; (K;) and the meaning is No, by God, (I did not) this! (S, art. ها, q. v.) or No, by God, this (is what I swear by)! (K.) هَوْءٌ Mind; purpose; aspiration; desire; ambition. (S, K, TA.) Ex. بَعِيذُ الهَوْءِ A person of far-reaching aspiration, or ambition. (S, TA.) b2: هَوْءٌ Penetrating judgment. (K.) b3: وَقَعَ فى هَوْئِى, and ↓ هُوئِى, It occurred to my mind, or imagination. (K.) هُوْءٌ: See preceding sentence.

مُهْوَأَنٌّ (S, K) and ↓ مَهْوَئِنٌّ (K) A wide desert, or wide tract of the kind called صَحْرَآء. (S. K.) b2: Custom: syn. عَادَةٌ. (K.) b3: A part of the night. (K.) b4: The mention of مهوأنّ in this art., by J, says IB, and F after him, is wrong; for its measure is مفوعّل; the و being an augmentative letter. [But if so, F has himself done wrong, in mentioning it, not only here, but also in art. هون, (where, if the و be augmentative, it is equally inappropriate,) as though it were a quasi-quadriliteral-radical word, of the measure مفعاُلّ.] ISd gives it as formed by transposition from the root هنأ, and explains it as signifying a wide place. (TA.) مُهْوَئِنٌّ: see مُهْوَأَنٌّ.
