وَإِنْ كُنْتِ قَدْ أَزْمَعْتِ صَرْمِى وَبِغْضَتِى
[Then be thou in prosperity, in safe keeping (of God), and in happy condition, even if thou have firmly resolved to cut me and to detest me], كِلَآءٌ may be an
inf. n.; or it may be
pl. of كِلَأءَةٌ; or it may be put for كِلَآءَةٌ, the ة being elided by a necessary poetical licence. (Abu-l- Hasan.)
b4: The verb is also used without hemzeh, thus; كَلَاتُ, يَكْلُوكُمْ; and كَلَيْتُ, يَكْلَاكُمْ; in the
dial. of Kureysh;
inf. n. كِلَايَةٌ: as the

5 تكلّأ; and ↓ كلّأ,
inf. n. تَكْلِىْءٌ; He bought on credit. [This is the explanation given in the
TK, and it appears to be correct. It is also there said, that تَكَلَّأْتُهُ signifies أَخَذْتُهُ نَسْيْئَةً, I took it, or bought it, on credit: and كَلَّأْتُ فِى
الطَّعَامِ, اخذته بالنّسيئةِ, I took, or bought, the food on credit, but the latter I render differently. (See 2, above.) In the
K we read الكَالِئُ
والكُلْأَةُ بِالضَّمِّ النَّسِيْئَةُ والعُرْبُونُ وتَكَلَّأْتُ وكَلَّأْتُ تَكْلِيْئًا
أخَذْتُهُ. IbrD thinks that the last word should be أخَّرْتُ “ I postponed, or delayed ”: but I rather think that it should be أَخَذْتُهَا, meaning أَخَذْتُ نَسِيْئَةً I took, or bought, on credit. in the
TA we read,
AO says, تَكَلَّأْتُ كُلْأَةً وكَلَّأْتُ
تَكْلِيْئًا إِسْتَنْسَأْتُ نَسِيْئَةَ أَىْ أَخَذْتُهُ وَالنَّسِيْئَةُ التَّأْخِيرُ
وَكَذٰلِكَ إِسْتَكْلَأْتُ كُلْأَةً: but the words اى اخذته seem to have been added by
SM; for in the
S we find, on the authority of
AO, تَكَلَّأْتُ أَىْ اسْسَنْسَأْتُ نَسِيْئَةً وَكَذٰلِكَ اسْتَكْلَأْتُ كُلْأَةً
بِالضَّمِّ وَهُوَ مِنَ التَّأْخِيرِ: whence it seems, that تكلّأ, (or تكلّأ كُلْأَةً, and كُلْأَةً ↓ كلّأ, see above,) and كُلأَةً ↓ الستكلأ, signify He asked for a delay of the period of the payment of a debt.] See 8.
8 اكتلأ مِنْهُ (assumed

masc., and perfectly declinable: (
S:) so called because it keeps the vessels safe (يَكْلَؤُهَا) from the wind: but
