فرض

1 فَرَضَهُ, (S, A, O, Msb, &c.,) aor. ـِ (Msb, TA, &c.,) inf. n. فَرْضٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) He made a mark in it, or upon it, by notching, or otherwise: (O:) he notched it: made a notch, or an incision, in it; (S, O, Msb, K;) namely, a piece of wood, (Msb,) a زَنْد, [or rather فَرَضَهَا said of a زَنْدَة, from which fire is produced,] and a سِوَاك [or toothstick], (S, O,) and in like manner a bow; (A;) as also [↓ افترضهُ; (see this verb below;) and] ↓ فرّضهُ, inf. n. تَفْرِيضٌ: (K:) or this last signifies he notched it much; or made notches in it; (S, O, TA;) or you say, فَرَضَ قَوْسَهُ and فَرَّضَ قِسِيَّهُ: (A:) and فَرَضَهُ signifies he notched it with his teeth; namely, a tooth-stick: (As:) and he cut it; namely, a thing; or a hard thing; which is said by some to be the primary signification: (TA:) and he (a tailor) cut it out; namely a garment: (Kull p. 275:) and he cut it out and made it round; namely a shield: (TA:) and فَرْضٌ also signifies the cutting, or dividing, lengthwise; cleaving; or the like; applied in a general manner; or the making a trench, or an oblong excavation, in the middle of a grave; فَرَضْتُ لِلْمَيِّتِ signifying I made a trench, or an oblong excavation, in the middle of a grave, for the corpse. (TA.) A2: فَرَضَ لَهُ, [aor. and] inf. n. as above, (K, &c.,) He apportioned to him [a thing]: he appointed to him [a thing]: (Bd in xxxiii. 38, and TA: *) because that which is apportioned, or appointed, [to a person] is cut off from the thing from which it is apportioned, or appointed: (TA:) he made [a thing] lawful, or allowable, to him; (Jel in xxxiii. 38, and Kull in p. 275, and TA; *) relating to a case into which a man has brought himself: (Kull:) this is said to be the meaning when the phrase فَرَضَ اللّٰهُ لَهُ occurs in the Kur: (TA:) he appointed, or assigned, to him a definite portion; (K;) as also له ↓ افرض. (O, L, K.) You say فَرَضَ لَهُ فِى

العَطَآءِ [He appointed, or assigned, to him a definite portion in the gift]. (As, S.) And فَرَضَ لَهُ فِى الدِّيوَانِ (As, S, A) [He appointed, or assigned, to him a definite portion in the register of soldiers or pensioners; or] he registered his stipend therein. (As, A, TA.) And فَرَضَهُ, (S,) and ↓ افرضهُ, (S, K,) He gave to him. (S, O, K.) b2: فَرَضَ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb,) aor. as above, (TA,) and so the inf. n., (Msb, TA,) also signifies He (God, S, A, Mgh, Msb) made a thing, (S, TA,) or prayer, (A, Mgh,) or statutes or ordinances, (Msb,) obligatory, or binding, syn. أَوْجَبَ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, TA,) by a known decree, (TA,) [or He imposed a thing &c.,] عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ on a man, (TA,) or عَلَيْنَا on us; (S;) and so ↓ اِفْتَرَضَ: (S, A, Mgh, O, K:) or فَرْضٌ is like إِيجَابٌ; but the latter is so termed in consideration of its befalling; and the former is so called in consideration of the sentence, or decree, respecting it: (B:) [this is said in books on the law, in explanation of the opinion of Aboo-Haneefeh, as opposed to that of Esh-Sháfi'ee: for] accord. to Esh-Sháfi'ee, these two terms are alike; (L, TA;) but accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh, the difference between الوَاجِبُ and الفَرْضُ is like the difference between heaven and earth: (TA:) this distinction, however, is founded upon contested derivations of the two terms: (Kull p. 276:) and it is said that wherever the phrase فَرَضَ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ occurs, it means إِيجَابٌ. (TA.) Also He (the apostle of God) instituted, or prescribed, [a thing as a statute, or an ordinance, or a command or prohibition;] syn. سَنَّ; (O, K;) on the authority of IAar alone: (O, TA:) but accord. to others, he made necessarily obligatory or binding; and this, says Az, is the obvious meaning. (TA.) Also He (a judge) decreed, or adjudged, [TA.) Also He (a judge) decreed, or adjudged, [a thing, as, for instance,] expenses [&c.]. (Msb.) Also He assigned, or appointed, a particular time for doing a thing; or he determined, defined, or limited, a thing as to time, or otherwise; the inf. n., فَرْضٌ, being syn. with تَوْقِيتٌ: (Ibn-'Arafeh, A, O, K:) as in the phrase فَمَنْ فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ الحَجَّ [And whoso determineth the performance of the pilgrimage therein]; (Ibn-'Arafeh, O, K;) occurring in the Kur [ii. 193]; and in like manner it is expl. by Ibn-'Arafeh as occurring in xxxiii. 38 of the Kur (O, TA:) but the phrase quoted above is also expl. as meaning and whoso maketh it obligatory, or binding, on himself to perform the pilgrimage therein, by his entering upon the state of إِحْرَام. (TA.) b3: سُورَةٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهَا وَفَرَضْنَاهَا, (K,) in the Kur, [commencing chap. xxiv.,] (TA,) means [This is a chapter which we have revealed and] in which we have set down the obligatory statutes: (O, K:) or in which we have bound you to do according to what is made obligatory therein: (Az, O:) or, as some read, ↓ وَفَرَّضْنَاهَا, (S, O, K, *) meaning and in which we have set down obligatory statutes, (O, L, K,) one after another: (O, K:) or which we have distinctly explained: (Az, S, O, K:) or we have distinctly explained what is in it, of lawful and unlawful [things]. (T, TA.) b4: فَرْضٌ also signifies The act of reading, or reciting. (IAar, O, K.) You say, فَرَضْتُ جُزْئِى I read, or recited, my portion. (O, TA.) A3: فَرُضَ, inf. n. فَرَاضَةٌ, He was, or became, skilled in the فَرَائِض; (A, O, K, TA;) i. e. in the science of the division of inheritances. (TA.) MF says that, accord. to IKtt, the verb is also written فَرَضَ, like كَتَبَ: but [says SM] what I find in his “ Kitáb el-Abniyeh ” is the mention of the two modes of writing in the instance of فرضت said of a cow; and the verb applied to a man he has not mentioned. (TA.) A4: فَرَضَتْ, aor. ـِ inf. n. فُرُوضٌ; and فَرُضَتْ, inf. n. فَرَاضَةٌ; She (a cow) became old, aged, far advanced in age, (S, O, K,) or extremely old. (TA.) b2: And فَرَضَ, inf. n. فُرُوضٌ, signifies It (a thing) became wide; it widened, or dilated. (TA.) 2 فَرَّضَ see 1, first sentence: and again, in the last quarter of the paragraph.

A2: فرّض, inf. n. تَفْرِيضٌ, said of a man, He had a فَرِيضَة [to give from] among his camels. (O, K.) 4 افرض لَهُ: and افرضهُ: see 1, latter part of the first half of the paragraph.

A2: أَفْرَضَتِ المَاشِيَةُ The beasts amounted to the number which rendered it obligatory on the owner to give from among them a فَرِيضَة. (S, O, K. *) 8 افترضهُ: see 1, first sentence. b2: لَمْ يَفْتَرِضْهَا وَلَدٌ, occurring in a trad., means [A child had not been brought forth by her; lit.] لَمْ يَحُزَّهَا, and لَمْ يُوءَتِّرْهَا [a mistake for لم يُوءَشِّرْهَا]. (TA.) A2: See also 1, latter part of the first half of the paragraph.

A3: افترض الجُنْدٌ The soldiers received their stipends. (A, K.) A4: افترض القَوْمُ The people, or company of men, perished, none of them remaining; syn. انقرض. (K.) فَرْضٌ A mark [made by notching, or otherwise; as is shown by the first explanation of 1]: (TA:) a notch, or an incision, in a thing: (O, TA:) of a bow, (S, A, K,) the place of the string; (K;) the notch (S, A, O) in the curved extremity thereof, (A,) into which the string falls; (S, O;) as also ↓ فُرْضَةٌ; (A, TA;) or this is the place of the notch for the string thereof: (Msb:) pl. of the former فِرَاضٌ (S, O, K) and فُرُوضٌ; (TA;) and of the latter فُرَضٌ (Msb, TA) and فِرَاضٌ: (Msb:) also, of a زَنْد, (S, K,) or [rather] of a زَنْدَة, (A,) the notch; (K;) or the place, or part, whence the fire is produced; (S, K;) the hole, or perforation, that is made in the head thereof, into which the زَنْد is put, and then twisted round, in producing fire; also called وَكْرٌ; (A;) and ↓ فُرْضَةٌ signifies the same: (TA:) and فُرَضٌ also signifies notches in an unfeathered and headless arrow [such as is used in the game called المَيْسِر]. (TA.) A2: I. q. ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ (A, Msb, K) [Apportioned: appointed; made lawful, or allowable: and] a thing made obligatory, or binding, by God; (S, A, O, K;) for neglecting which one will be punished; like وَاجِبٌ; accord. to EshSháfi'ee; (TA in art. وجب;) because it has marks and limits; (S, O, TA;) said to be from the same word signifying “ a mark,” because it inseparably pertains to a man, like a mark; (TA;) or, as some say, because it necessarily pertains to a man like as does the فَرْض, i. e. notch, to the arrow; (O, TA;) as also ↓ مُفْتَرَضٌ: (TA:) pl. فُرُوضٌ. (Msb.) As a law-term, it is of two sorts, فَرْضُ عَيْنٍ and فَرْضُ كِفَايَةٍ: the former is That whereof the observance is obligatory on every one, and does not become of no force in respect of some in consequence of the observance [thereof] by some [others]; as religious belief, and the like: the latter is That whereof the observance is obligatory on the collective body of the Muslims, and, in consequence of the observance [thereof] by some, becomes of no force in respect of the rest; as warring against unbelievers, and the prayer over the dead in the bier. (KT.) Yousay, هٰذَا أَمْرٌ فَرْضٌ عَلَيْهِمْ, and ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ, and ↓ مُفْتَرَضٌ, This is [a thing] made obligatory, or binding, on them by God. (TA.) And حَقُّكَ فَرْضٌ, and ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ, and ↓ مُفْتَرَضٌ, Thy right, or due, is [a thing] made obligatory, or binding, by God. (A.) ↓ نَصِيبًا مَفْرُوضًا, in the Kur [iv. 8 and 118], means A share, or portion, determined, defined, or limited, as to time, or otherwise: (Zj, Ibn-'Arafeh:) or, in iv. 118, a share, or portion, cut off and limited. (S, O.) [See also فَرِيضَةٌ.]

b2: A statute, an ordinance, a command or prohibition, of the Apostle of God; syn. سُنَّةٌ. (IAar, O, K.) [But فَرْضٌ is generally distinguished from سُنَّةٌ: the former, for instance, being applied to prayer appointed in the Kur-án; and the latter, to prayer appointed by Mohammad without allegation of a divine order.] b3: A gift, or a soldier's stipend or pay, syn. عَطَآءٌ, (A,) or عَطِيَّةٌ, (S, O, K,) assigned, or appointed. (S, O, K. *) In the copies of the K, مَوْسُومَة is put by mistake for مَرْسُومَة. (TA.) You say, مَا أَصَبْتُ مِنْهُ فَرْضًا وَلَا قَرْضًا I did not obtain from him an assigned, or appointed, gift, or soldier's stipend, (S, O, TA,) nor a gift to be requited, or a loan. (O, TA.) And فَرْضٌ also signifies A thing which one makes obligatory, or binding, on himself, and freely gives: or a thing which one gives liberally, not for a recompense. (IDrd, O, K.) A3: Also Soldiers who receive stipends; (K:) so accord. to Lth, as related by Az; but [Sgh says] I have not found it in the book of Lth: (O:) or soldiers having definite portions assigned to them: (A:) pl. فُرُوضٌ. (A, TA.) Yousay, عِنْدَهُ مِائَةٌ مِنَ الفَرْضِ He has with him a hundred soldiers &c. (A.) A4: A shield. (S, O, K.) Sakhr-el-Gheí says, describing lightning, (O, TA,) likening it to a light shield which an announcer of tidings was turning over and over with his hands that a party might see it and be gladdened [by the signal], (TA,) أَرِقْتُ لَهُ مِثْلَ لَمْعِ البَشِيرِ يُقَلِّبُ بِالكَفِّ فَرْضًا خَفِيفًا [I was sleepless by reason of it, it being (in its flickering) like the signalling of the announcer of tidings turning over and over with the hand a light shield]: one should not say قُرْصًا خفيفا. (S, O, TA: but my copies of the S have قَلَّبَ instead of يُقَلِّبُ.) [See also what follows.] b2: And A stick, or piece of wood; syn. عُودٌ; thus [it means] in the verse (فِى البَيْتِ) accord. to El-Jumahee, (O, TA,) i. e. in the verse above-cited: (TA:) he says, الفَرْضُ فِى البَيْتِ عُودٌ: (O, TA:) whence the author of the K has been misled to explain الفَرْضُ as meaning عُودٌ مِنْ أَعْوَادِ البَيْتِ. (TA.) b3: And An arrow before it has been furnished with feathers and a head: (Akh, S, O, TA:) a meaning also heard by El-Jumahee: (O, TA:) and to this, in the hand of the player, 'Abeed ElAbras has likened lightning, accord. to the S; but Sgh says, in the TS, that he did not find the verse cited by J in the poetry of 'Abeed. (TA.) b4: And A piece of rag: another explanation heard by El-Jumahee. (O.) b5: And A garment, or piece of cloth: (O, K:) a meaning mentioned by As on the authority of some one or more of the Arabs of the desert, of Hudheyl. (O.) [See also فِرَاضٌ.] b6: And it is said that in the verse cited above it means the notch in the زَنْد [or rather زَنْدَة, mentioned in the first sentence of this paragraph]. (O, TA.) A5: A sort of dates (S, O, Msb, K) of 'Omán: (Msb:) As says that the best dates of 'Omán are these and the بَلْعَق: (S, O:) and AHn says, Certain of the desertArabs of 'Omán informed me that when the tree thereof has its fruit ripened, and the gathering is delayed, the fruit falls from its stones, and the raceme remains with nothing upon it but stones hanging to the ثَفَارِيق [by which they are attached to the ends of the stalks]. (TA.) فِرْضٌ The fruit of the دَوْم [or Theban palm] while continuing red. (AA, O, * K.) فُرْضَةٌ: see فَرْضٌ, first sentence, in two places, b2: A gap, or an opening, in a wall and the like: pl. فُرَضٌ. (Msb.) b3: A gap, or breach, in the bank of a river, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) whence one draws water, (S, O, K,) or by which one descends to the water, (Mgh, Msb,) and by which the ships, or boats, ascend; (Msb;) i. e. (Mgh) its مَشْرَعَة: (As, A, Mgh:) pl., in this and the following senses, فُرَضٌ (TA) and فِرَاضٌ. (A, TA.) Hence the saying, in a trad., فَاجْعَلُوا السُّيُوفَ لِلْمَنَايَا فُرَضًا (assumed tropical:) Therefore make ye the swords to be مَشَارِع [here used in the sense of means of access] to death; (O, TA;) and offer, or expose, yourselves to martyrdom. (TA.) Hence also, فِرَاضٌ is used in the sense of ثُغُورٌ [pl. of ثَغْرٌ, q. v.]. (TA.) b4: Of a sea, or great river, The place where ships unload; syn. مَحَطُّ السُّفُنِ: (S, O, K:) or where they are stationed, near the bank of a river, or near the land.

(IB.) فَرَضِىٌّ and ↓ فَارِضٌ (S, A, Mgh, O, K) and ↓ فَرَّاضٌ (A, Mgh, B) and ↓ فَرِيضٌ (A, O, L, K) A man skilled in the science of the فَرَائِض; (S, * A, Mgh, O, K, * B;) i. e. in the science of questions relating to inheritance; (Mgh;) or in the science of the division of inheritances.

فَرِيضٌ An arrow having its notch cut; (S, A, O, K;) as also ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ. (TA.) b2: See also فَرَضِىٌّ: A2: and see فَارِضٌ.

A3: Also The cud of the camel; accord. to Kr: but accord. to others this is called, قَرِيض [q. v.], with ق. (TA.) فَرِيضَةٌ, of the measure فَعِيلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولَةٌ: pl. فَرَائِضُ: said by some to be derived from فَرْضٌ signifying the act of “ apportioning,” or “ appointing; ” because فرائض are apportioned, or appointed: by others said to be from فَرْضٌ in relation to a bow. (Msb.) [These remarks apply to the word in all the senses here following.] b2: A subst. signifying A thing made obligatory, or binding, on a person or persons, (S, Mgh, TA) by God; (S, TA;) an obligatory statute or ordinance of God, in a general sense: pl. as above.

(Mgh.) It is said in a trad., (Mgh,) تَعَلَّمُوا الفَرَائِضَ وَعَلِّمُوهَا النَّاسَ فَإِنَّهَا نِصْفُ العِلْمِ, accord. to the relation commonly followed, with the pron. fem., referring to الفرائض; and وَعَلِّمُوهُ فَإِنَّهُ, with the pron. masc., referring to عِلْم understood as prefixed to الفرائض; [i. e.

(Mgh, * Msb.) The phrase الفَرِيضَةُ العَادِلَةُ [The equitable portion of inheritance], in a trad. of Ibn-'Omár, is that respecting which the Muslims have agreed: or that for which the authority is elicited from the Kur-án and the Sunneh without there being in these any express statute respecting it: or that is equitably divided, agreeably with the portions and shares mentioned in the Kur-án and the Sunneh. (TA.) b4: What is made obligatory, or binding, [on the owner, to give,] of pasturing beasts, [i. e. camels,] in payment of the poor-rate; (S, O, K;) the camel that is taken in payment of the poor-rate: so termed because it is made obligatory to be given, of a certain number of camels: the ة is added because the word is made a subst., not an epithet: pl. فَرَائِضُ: (TA:) فَرَائِضُ الإِبِلِ signifying the dues of the poor-rate, of camels: (A, Mgh: *) the فريضة of twenty-five camels is a بِنْت مَخَاض, (Mgh,) or she-camel one year old; (AHeyth;) that of thirty-six, a بِنْت لَبُون, (AHeyth, Mgh,) or she-camel two years old; (AHeyth;) that of forty-six, a حِقَّة, or she-camel three years old; and that of sixty-one, a جَذَعَة, or she-camel four years old.

The moth-worm that eats, or frets, wool, or woollen cloths]: (Msb:) [and the book-worm, or species of moth-worm that eats books: applied to both of these in the present day: and,] accord. to IAar, an insect [of the same kind] that clings to skin, or leather, and eats it: (TA:) [and the weevil; i. e.] the kind of worm, or grub, that eats corn; also called سُوسٌ: (M in art. سوس:) one thereof is termed ↓ عُثَّةٌ: (Msb:) [i. e.] عُثَّةٌ signifies a سُوسَة [or mothworm] that eats, or frets, wool: (S, A, O, K:) or a worm, or grub, that attacks wool and cloths (Mgh and Msb in art. سوس) and wheat or other food; (Mgh in that art.;) also called سُوسَةٌ: (Mgh and Msb in that art.:) and it is said to be the أَرَضَة, [generally signifying the wood-fretter, but here meaning] a certain insect that eats wool, and skin, or leather: (Msb:) the pl. of عُثَّةٌ is عُثَثٌ, (O,) or عُثٌّ, (K,) or both, (S,) or [rather]

عُثٌّ, which is expl. by IDrd as a pl., is a gen. n., having a pl. meaning though it is a sing: (TA:) the pl. of عُثٌّ is عِثَاثٌ. (Msb.) An Arab of the desert, being asked respecting his son, said, أُعْطِيهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مِنْ مَالِى دَانِقًا وَإِنَّهُ فِيهِ لَأَسْرَعُ مِنَ العُثِّ فِى الصُّوفِ فِى الصَّيْفِ [I give him, every day, of my property, a dánik (a small silver coin), and verily he is quicker in consuming it than the moth-worm in wool in the summer]. (TA.) And one says, فُلَانٌ عُثُّ مَالٍ, (S, O,) meaning (assumed tropical:) Such a one is a consumer of property; (PS;) like as one says إِزَآءُ مَالٍ, (S, O,) meaning “ a manager of property. ” (PS.) [See also عُثَّةٌ below: and عُثَيْثَةٌ.]

A2: أَطْعَمَنِى سَوِيقًا حُثًّا عُثًّا means [He fed me with meal of parched barley or wheat] not moistened and beaten up with anything greasy [such as clarified butter &c.]. (O: in the TA حُثًّا وَعُثًّا.) عَثَّةٌ: see the paragraph here following.

عُثَّةٌ: see عُثٌّ. b2: It is also an appellation of (tropical:) An old woman: (S, O, K:) as though, by reason of her corrupt state or conduct, and want of skill or understanding, she were a سُوسَة. (TA.) b3: Also, (O, K, TA,) and ↓ عَثَّةٌ, (TA,) A woman foul, or obscene, in tongue; (O, K, TA;) despised; obscure, or reputeless: (TA:) and a foolish, or stupid, woman: (O, K:) or, the former signifies, accord. to Az, a woman obscure, or reputeless; whether she be, or be not, lean, or emaciated: and the latter, accord. to IDrd, a woman lean, or spare, in body: and in like manner ↓ عَثٌّ applied to a man: (O:) the pl. of عثّة is عِثَاثٌ. (TA.) عِثَاثٌ Vipers that eat one another in a time of drought. (O, K.) b2: Also pl. of عُثٌّ: (Msb:) b3: and of عُثَّةٌ or عَثَّةٌ. (TA.) عُثَيْثَةٌ dim. of عُثَّةٌ [n. un. of عُثٌّ, q. v.]. (L.)

(O.) عَثَّآءُ The serpent. (O, K.)

1 رَمَّهُ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and يَرِمُّ (S, Msb, K,) the latter [irreg. as aor. of a trans. v. of this class, and] said by MF to be unknown, but there are other instances of the same kind, as هَرَّهُ, aor. ـُ and يَهِرُّ and عَلَّهُ, aor. ـُ and يَعِلُّ, (TA,) inf. n. رَمٌّ (Lth, T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K) and مَرَمَّةٌ, (Lth, T, S, Mgh, K,) He repaired it; or put it into a good, sound, right, or proper, state; (Lth, T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) after a part thereof had become in a bad state; (Lth, T;) namely, a thing, (Lth, T, S,) as, for instance, a rope becoming old and worn-out, or a house, (Lth, T,) or a building, (Mgh,) or a wall, &c.; (Msb;) as also رَمَّ شَأْنَهُ, (S,) or شَأْنَهَا referring to a house (دَار): (Lth, T:) and in like manner, he rectified it, namely, an affair, after it had become disorganized, or disordered: (Lth, T:) and ↓ رمّم signifies the same in an intensive sense; [i. e. he repaired it, &c., much, or well:] (Msb:) and ↓ رَمْرَمَ he repaired, or rectified, his affair, case, state, or condition. (TA.) The saying, كُنَّا أَهْلَ ثَمِّهِ وَرَمِّهِ, (T, S,) occurring in a trad., (S,) accord. to the relaters thereof ↓ ثُمِّهِ وَرُمِّهِ, but A'Obeyd holds the former reading to be the right, (T, S,) means, accord. to AA, We were the fit persons to put it into a good, sound, right, or proper, state: (T:) or, accord. to A'Obeyd, to put it into such a state, and to eat it. (T, S. [See another explanation of the verb in what follows.]) b2: You say also, رَمَّ سَهْمَهُ, meaning (tropical:) [He made his arrow even, or straight, by means of his eye; or] he looked at his arrow until he made it even, or straight. (TA.) A2: رَمٌّ also signifies The act of eating; and so ↓ اِرْتِمَامٌ. (ISh, T.) You say, رَمَّهُ, (T, S, K,) aor. ـُ (T, S,) inf. n. رَمٌّ, (TA,) He ate it. (T, S, K.) And it is said in a trad., عَلَيْكُمْ بِأَلْبَانِ البَقَرِ فَإِنَّهَا تَرُمُّ مِنْ كُلِّ الشَّجَرِ [Keep ye to the milk of cows, for they eat of all the tress]; (T, S, * TA;) i. e. تَأْكُلُ: or, accord. to one reading, it is ↓ تَرْتَمُّ. (TA.) رَمَّتِ الشَّاةُ الحَشِيشَ aor. ـُ inf. n. رَمٌّ, means The sheep, or goat, took the dry herbage, or fodder, with its lips. (M.) And رَمَّتِ الشَّاةُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ, and ↓ ارتمّت, The sheep, or goat, ate from the land. (S.) And رَمَّتِ البَهْمَةُ, (M,) or البَهِيمَةُ, (K,) inf. n. as above; (TA;) and ↓ ارتمّت; i. e.

(T.) and العَظْمَ ↓ ترمّم He ate off the flesh from the bone; syn. تَعَرَّقَهُ: or he left the bone like the رِمَّة [q. v.]: in [some of] the copies of the K, تَرَمَّمَ is erroneously explained by تَعَزَّقَ; [in my MS. copy, by تَعَرَّفَ; and in the CK, by تَفَرَّقَ;] the right reading being تَعَرَّقَ, as in the A. (TA.) and it is said in a trad., respecting the she-cat, وَلَا مِنْ خَشَاشِ الأَرْضِ ↓ أَرْسَلْتُهَا تُرَمْرِمُ, meaning [and I did not send her] for her to eat [of the creeping things of the earth]. (TA.) A3: رَمَّ العَظْمُ, aor. ـِ (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. رَمٌّ (T, M,) or رِمَّةٌ, (S,) or both, (K, TA, [the former written in the CK رِمّ]) and رَمِيمٌ; (M, K;) and ↓ ارمّ; (M, K; [but see what follows;]) The bone became such as is termed رمَّة; (M, TA;) [i. e.,] became old and decayed; (MA, KL;) syn. بَلِىَ. (T, S, Mgh, Msb, K.) Accord. to IAar, one says, رَمَّتْ عِظَامُهُ, and ↓ أَرَمَّتْ, meaning His bones became old and decayed; syn. بَلِيَتْ: but others explain العَظْمُ ↓ ارمّ differently, as below: see 4. (T.) In the saying, mentioned in a trad., يَا

↓ رَسُولَ اللّٰهِ كَيْفَ تُعْرْضُ صَلَاتُنَا عَلَيْكَ وَقَدْ أَرَمْتَ, meaning بَلِيتَ [i. e. O Apostle of God, how shall our blessing be offered, or addressed, to thee when thou shalt have become decayed in the grave?], the last word is originally أَرْمَمْتَ; one of the two م s being rejected; like as is done in أَحَسْتَ, for أَحْسَسْتَ: (IAth, K, * TA: [in the CK, تَعْرَضُ is put in the place of تُعْرَضُ:]) accord. to one relation, it is أَرَمَّتَ; accord. to another, رَمَمْتَ; and accord. to another, أُرِمْتَ: but the first is the proper manner of relation. (TA.) And رَمَّ الحَبْلُ The rope became [old and worn out or rotten, (see رُمَّةٌ,) or] ragged, or dissundered. (M.) 2 رَمَّّ see 1, first sentence.4 ارمّ, said of a bone, It had in it, or contained, رِمّ, i. e. marrow, (T, S, K,) running therein. (S.) One says of a sheep or goat (S, M) that is lean, or emaciated, (S,) and of a she-camel, (M,) مَا يُرِمُّ مِنْهَا مَضْرِبٌ, (S, M,) meaning Not a bone of her that is broken and from which the marrow is [sought to be] extracted [contains any marrow]: (M:) i. e., if any of her bones be broken, no marrow will be found in it. (S.) And ارمّت is said of a she-camel in the first stage of fatness when becoming in good condition of body, and in the last stage thereof when becoming lean; (M, TA;) meaning She had in her somewhat of marrow. (TA.) b2: See also 1, in the latter part of the paragraph, in four places.

A2: Also, (T, S, M, K,) inf. n. إِرْمَامٌ, (T,) He (a man, T) was, or became, silent; (T, M, K;) in a general sense; or, as some say, from fear, or fright: (M:) [and in like manner a bird: see its part. n. مُرِمٌّ:] or they (a company of men) were, or became, silent. (S.) [See also R. Q. 2.]

A3: ارمّ

إِلَى اللَّهْو He inclined to diversion, sport, or play. (IAar, M, K.) b2: And ارمّ لِكَذَا He was cheered, or delighted, and pleased, or was diverted, by reason of such a thing; like أَرَنَّ لَهُ. (T in art. رن.) 5 ترمّمهُ He proceeded gradually, by degrees, step by step, or time after time, with the repairing of it; or with the putting it into a good, sound, right, or proper, state. (TA.) A2: See also 1, near the middle of the paragraph, in two places.8 إِرْتَمَ3َ see 1, in the middle portion of the paragraph, in four places. b2: ارتمّ is also said of a young camel as meaning He began to be in that state in which one could feel his hump. (K.) 10 استرمّ It (a wall, S, MA, Mgh, K, or a building, KL) needed, or required, its being repaired; (M, MA, K, KL; expl. in the M and K by دَعَا إِلَى إِصْلَاحِهِ;) having become old: (MA:) or attained to the time in which it should be repaired; (S, Mgh;) a long period having elapsed since it was plastered with mud. (S.) R. Q. 1 رَمْرَمَ: see 1, in two places. R. Q. 2 تَرَمْرَمَ He moved his lips, (T,) or his mouth, (S,) to speak: (T, S:) or تَرَمْرَمُوا they put themselves in motion to speak, but spake not: (M, K:) but it is said to be mostly used in negative phrases. (TA.) One says, مَا تَرَمْرَمَ فُلَانٌ بِحَرْفٍ Such a one uttered not [a letter, or a word]: (T, TA:) or put not himself in motion [therewith]. (IDrd, TA.) And كَلَّمَهُ فَمَا تَرَمْرَمَ [He spoke to him and] he returned not a reply. (M, TA.) رَمٌّ an inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (Lth, T, S, &c.) b2: One says, مَالِى مِنْهُ حَمٌّ وَلَا رَمٌّ There is not for me any avoiding it, or escaping it: (S:) or مَا لَهُ عَنْ ذٰلِكَ الأَمْرِ حَمٌّ وَلَا رَمٌّ (T, TA) There is not for him any avoiding, or escaping, that thing, or affair: (TA:) and some say ↓ حُمٌّ وَلَا رُمٌّ: (S:) so says Lth: (T:) [accord. to ISd,] in the saying ↓ مَا عَنْ ذٰلِكَ حُمٌّ وَلَا رُمٌّ, meaning There is no avoiding, or escaping, that, رُمٌّ is an imitative sequent; (M;) and so says Lth. (T. [But see the next paragraph.]) b3: See also another signification assigned to رَمٌّ in the last sentence but one of the next paragraph. b4: [And see the last sentence also of that paragraph.]

رُمٌّ: see 1, second sentence: b2: and see also the paragraph next preceding this, in two places. b3: Also i. q. بَيْتٍ ↓ مَرَمَّةُ, (ISk, T, S, M,) i. e. Household-goods; or the utensils and furniture of a house or tent. (M. [This explanation, from the M, I have found, in the TT, since I composed art. ثم; in which I have said that, accord. to analogy, مَرَمَّةُ البَيْتِ app. signifies the means by which a house, or tent, is put into a good state; and therefore good furniture and utensils.]) So in the saying, مَا لَهُ ثُمٌّ وَلَا رُمٌّ, (ISk, T, S, M,) and مَا يَمْلِكُ ثُمًّا وَلَا رُمًّا, (ISk, T, S,) i. e. He has not, and he possesses not, such household-goods as water-skins, or milk-skins, and vessels, (ISk, T, M,) nor any of the utensils and furniture of the house or tent. (ISk, * T, * M.) This explanation is better than the saying of Lth [that رُمٌّ is an imitative sequent: see the next preceding paragraph]. (T.) One says also, مَا لَهُ حُمٌّ وَلَا رُمٌّ, meaning He has not anything: (S:) or he has neither little nor much. (TA voce حَمٌّ [q. v.]) [See also ثُمٌّ.] b4: Also i. q. هَمٌّ [as meaning An object, or a thing intended or meant or determined upon or desired, in the mind: and perhaps also anxiety; or disquietude, or trouble, of mind]. (M, K. [This signification, هَمٌّ, Freytag has assigned to رَمٌّ, not to رُمٌّ; rendering it “ cura, sollicitudo; ” as from the K; in which the word bearing it is expressly said to be “ with damm. ”]) So in the saying, مَا لَهُ رُمٌّ غَيْرُ كَذَا [He has not any object in his mind except such a thing]. (M.) And so in the saying, مَا لَهُ حُمٌّ وَلَا رُمٌّ غَيْرُكَ and ↓ حَمٌّ وَلَا رَمٌّ [He has not any object in his mind except thee]. (TA in art. حم.) A2: Also A company of men: occurring in a trad. applied to a company of [the people called] أَكْرَاد, abiding [in a place] like a حَى [or tribe] of the Arabs of the desert: [perhaps correctly رَمٌّ, from the Pers\. رَمْ:] said by Aboo-Moosà to be app. a Pers\. word. (TA.) رِمٌّ The herbage and other things that are upon the land: whence the current saying, جَآءَ فُلَانٌ بِالطِّمِّ وَالرِّمِّ, meaning Such a one brought everything of what is on the land and in the sea: [or, of what is in the sea and on the land; for] الطِّمُّ means “ the sea; ” and is originally الطّمُّ, but is pronounced [in this case] الطِّمّ to assimilate it to الرِّمّ. (T.) [Or] i. q. ثَرًى [app. as meaning Good of any kind; and particularly wealth; as appears from what immediately follows]: one says, جَآءَهُ بِالطِّمِّ وَالرِّمّ, meaning He brought him much wealth. (S.) [Or] جَآءَ بِالطِّمِّ وَالرِّمِّ means He brought what was of the sea and what was of the land: (بِالبَحْرِىِّ وَالبَرِّىّ, K: [so in MS. copies and in the CK: in the copy of the K followed in the TA, and in like manner in the M, بالبحر والثرى, which, I think, is evidently a false reading:]) or moist and dry: or earth and water: (M, K:) or much wealth; (K;) as in the S: (TA:) and it is said in the copies of the K, [and in the M,] that الرِّمُّ signifies what is borne [on its surface] by the water; but this is a signification of الطِّمُّ; and الرِّمُّ signifies what is borne by the wind: (TA:) or what is upon the ground, of fragments of dry herbage. (M, K.) [See also art. طم.] b2: Also Marrow. (T, S, M, K.) رُمَّةٌ The remains of a rope after it has become ragged, or dissundered: (T:) or a piece of a rope (S, M, Msb, K) that is old and worn out or rotten; (S;) as also ↓ رِمَّةٌ: (M, K:) pl. [of mult.]

رُمَمٌ (T, S,) or رِمَمٌ (M, K,) and رِمَامٌ (S, M, K) and [of pauc.] أَرْمَامٌ: (M, K:) and they said also حَبْلٌ أَرْمَامٌ and رِمَمٌ [or رُمَمٌ] and رِمَامٌ; (M, K;) [like حَبْلٌ أَرْمَاثٌ and ثَوْبٌ أَخْلَاقٌ &c.;] thus using the pl. as though every part [of the rope] were termed a single thing. (M.) b2: Hence the saying, أَعْطَيْتُهُ الشَّىْءَ بِرُمَّتِهِ (assumed tropical:) I gave him the thing altogether: (T:) or دَفَعَ إِلَيْهِ الشَّىْءَ بِرُمَّتِهِ (assumed tropical:) He gave him the thing altogether: (S:) or أَخَذَهُ بِرُمَّتِهِ (assumed tropical:) He took it altogether: (M; and the like is said in the Msb:) and أَتَيْتُكَ بِالشَّىْءِ بِرُمّتِهِ (assumed tropical:) I brought thee, or have brought thee, the thing altogether: (M:) or أَعْطَاهُ بِرُمَّتِهِ (assumed tropical:) He gave it altogether: (K:) originally meaning the rope that is put upon the neck of the camel: (T:) [i. e.] originating from the fact that a man gave to another a camel with a rope upon his neck: (S, K:) or from the fact that a man sold a camel with a rope upon his neck; and it was said, Give him with his رُمَّة: (Msb:) or, as some say, from the bringing a captive bound with his رُمَّة; but this is not a valid assertion. (M.) In all the copies of the K, الرُّمَّةُ is also expl. as syn. with الجَبْهَةُ; but [SM says,] I have not found it in the originals from which it is derived; and may-be the right reading is الجُمْلَةُ. (TA.) 'Alee said, dispraising the present world, أَسْبَابُهَا رِمَامٌ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [Its ties (lit. ropes) are] old and worn out or rotten. (TA.) b3: ↓ أَرْمَامٌ [perhaps as pl. of رُمَّةٌ] also signifies (assumed tropical:) The last remains of herbage. (M, TA.) رِمَّةٌ Old and decayed bones: (AA, T, S, M, Msb, K:) or the old and decayed, of bones: (Mgh:) pl. رِمَمٌ and رِمَامٌ. (S, Msb.) The performance of the act termed الاِسْتِنْجَآء therewith is forbidden. (Mgh, TA.) [See also رَمِيمٌ.] b2: [and A bone in which is marrow. (Freytag, from the “ Kitáb el-Addád. ”)] b3: See also رُمَّةٌ, first sentence.

A2: Also A two-winged ant: (M, K:) so accord. to Aboo-Hátim; but disallowed by ElBekree. (TA.) b2: And The أَرَضَة [or woodfretter], (M, K,) in some one or more of the dialects. (M, TA.) رُمُمٌ Clever, ingenious, skilful, or intelligent, girls, or young women: (IAar, K:) app. pl. of ↓ رَامَّةٌ, [as it is said to be in the TK, whence Freytag (who has mentioned it as from the K, explaining it as an epithet applied to a girl meaning “ ingeniosa, prudens,”) appears to have taken it,] which signifies a female skilful in repairing. (TA.) رُمَامٌ: see رَمِيمٌ. b2: It is applied as an epithet to ثُمَام, in a saying of 'Omar, explained in art. ثم: accord. to some, it means that whereof the heads are grown, so that they are eaten (تُرَمُّ, i. e. تُؤْكَلُ): it is also applied to a herb, or leguminous plant, such that the cattle pluck it with their mouths, obtaining but little thereof: and to herbage that had dried up when becoming green. (T.) شِاْةٌ رَمُومٌ A sheep, or goat, that eats that by which it passes. (M, TA.) رَمِيمٌ A bone old and decayed: (S, M, Msb, K:) and ↓ رُمَامٌ signifies the same (K, TA) in an intensive sense: (TA:) or the former is like رِمَّةٌ; (A 'Obeyd, T, and Ksh in xxxvi. 78;) i. e. it is a subst., signifying the old and decayed, of bones; (Ksh and Bd ibid.;) not of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ or مَفْعُولٌ: (Ksh ibid.:) or it is used in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, [meaning eroded,] from رَمَمْتُهُ [“ I ate it ”]: (Bd ibid.:) its pl. is in most instances أَرِمَّآءُ [when it is used as a subst. or as an epithet], like أَدِلَّآءُ pl. of دَلِيلٌ [or أَقْرِبَآء pl. of قَرِيبٌ]; and رِمَامٌ also occurs [when it is used as a subst., for رِمَّةٌ, of which رِمَامٌ is a pl., or when it is used as an epithet], like كِرَامٌ pl. of كَرِيمٌ: (Msb:) or you say أَعْظُمٌ رَمَائِمُ, and رَمِيمٌ also; or رَمِيمٌ may have the meaning of a gen. n., and therefore be used in the place of a pl. (M.) It is said in the Kur ubi suprà, مَنْ يُحْيِى الْعِظَامَ وَهِىَ رَمِيمٌ [Who will quicken the bones when they are old and decayed &c.?]; the last word being without ة because it is a subst., as expl. above, (Ksh, Bd, Jel,) not an epithet; (Ksh, Jel;) or because it is used in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, as stated above; (Bd;) or because words of the measures فَعِيلٌ and فَعُولٌ are sometimes used alike as masc. and fem. [and sing.] and pl., like صَدِيقٌ and رَسُولٌ and عَدُوٌّ. (S.) And Hátim, or some other, says, أَمَا وَالَّذِى لَا يَعْلَمُ السِّرَّ غَيْرُهُ وَيُحْيِى العِظَامَ البِيضَ وَهْىَ رَمِيمُ [Verily, or now surely, by Him beside whom none knoweth the secret, and who quickeneth the white bones when they are old and decayed &c.]; in which رميم may have the meaning of a gen. n., as observed above. (M.) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) Anything old and decayed or worn out. (M.) One says, أَحْيَى رَمِيمَ المَكَارِمِ (tropical:) [He revived what had become decayed of generous qualities or actions or practices]. (TA.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) The remains of the herbage of the next preceding year: (Lh, M:) from the same word in the sense first expl. above. (M.) A2: رَمِيمُ is one of the names of The east, or easterly, wind; الصَّبَا: and is also a proper name for a woman. (M.) رُمَامَةٌ A sufficiency of the means of subsistence, (K, TA,) whereby life becomes, or is held to be, in a good, or thriving, state. (TA.) رَمَّآءُ, applied to a ewe, White, (S, M,) without any colour upon her. (M.) رَمَّامٌ قَشَّاشٌ One who collects what has fallen of food, and the worst thereof, to eat it, not preserving himself from its uncleanness. (T, as heard by its author from the Arabs.) رُمَّانٌ is of the measure فُعْلَانٌ accord. to Sb: accord. to Abu-l-Hasan [i. e. Akh], of the measure فُعَّالٌ, (M, TA,) and is [therefore] mentioned in the S and K in art. رمن [q. v.]: (TA:) the n. un. is with ة. (M.) رَمْرَامٌ The حَشِيش [or herbs, or dry herbage,] of the [season called] رَبِيع: and also a certain species of trees, (S, M,) of sweet scent: n. un. with ة: (M:) or رَمْرَامَةٌ signifies a certain well-known sort of حَشِيش in the desert; and رَمْرَامٌ, much thereof: (T:) or this latter signifies a certain herb having prickly branches and leaves, that forbid the touch, rising to the height of a cubit; long in the leaves, broad, and intensely green, having a yellow flower, and eagerly desired by the cattle: (AHn, M:) or a certain dust-coloured plant, (Aboo-Ziyád, M, K,) which people use as a remedy for the sting of the scorpion. (Aboo-Ziyád, M.) رِامَّةٌ: see رُمُمٌ, of which it is thought to be the singular.

أَرْمَامٌ a pl. of رُمَّةٌ as signifying “ a piece of a rope: ” (M, K:) b2: and perhaps also in another sense: see the latter word, last sentence.

مُرِمٌّ Containing رِمّ, i. e. marrow; applied to a bone. (T.) And, [in like manner without ة,] applied to a she-camel, (S, M, K,) in the first stage of fatness when becoming in good condition of body, and in the last stage thereof when becoming lean, (M,) meaning Having in her somewhat of marrow. (S, M, * K. *) A2: Also Silent; (A 'Obeyd, T, S;) in a general sense; or, as some say, from fear, or fright; (TA;) applied to a man, (A 'Obeyd, T,) and to a bird, as in the saying of a rájiz, (S,) namely, Homeyd El-Arkat, (TA,).

مُرْخًى رِوَاقَاهُ هُجُودٌ سَامِرُهْ يَرِدْنَ وَاللَّيْلُ مُرمٌّ طَائِرُهُ [They come to the water when the bird of night is silent, when its curtains (lit. its two curtains) of darkness are let down, when the holders of discourse therein are sleeping]. (S, * TA.) A3: [The pl.] مُرِمَّاتٌ signifies Calamities, or misfortunes: (T, K:) so accord. to Az in the saying, رَمَاهُ بِالمُرِمَّاتِ [He smote him, or afflicted him, with calamiites, or misfortunes]: or, accord. to Aboo-Málik, it signifies المُسْكِتَات [i. e. silencing words or acts]. (T.) مَرَمَّةٌ [originally مَرْمَمَةٌ, a noun of the same class as مَجْنبَنَةٌ and مَبْخَلَةٌ &c., meaning A cause of repair: and hence, a thing needing repair; as in a phrase mentioned voce رَقِيعٌ]. b2: See also مَرَمَّةُ بَيْتِ, voce رُمٌّ. b3: And see what here follows.

مِرَمَّةٌ, (Th, T, S, M, TA,) accord. to the K, مَرِمَّةٌ, but this is a mistake, (TA,) The lip of any cloven-hoofed animal, (Th, T, S, M, K, TA,) such as the cow &c.; because it eats therewith; (S;) like مِقَمَّةٌ; (Th, T;) as also ↓ مَرَمَّةٌ [like مَقَمَّةٌ]. (S, M, K.) مَرْمُومٌ sing. of مَرَامِيمٌ, (TA,) which is [an epithet] applied to arrows, meaning Having the feathers repaired, or put into a good state. (K, TA.) b2: And (tropical:) An arrow [made even, or straight, by means of the eye; or] looked at until made even, or straight. (TA.) b3: You say also, أَمْرُ فُلَانٍ مَرْمُومٌ [i. e.

صنبر

Q. 1 صَنْبَرَتِ النَّخْلَةُ The palm-tree became solitary, or apart from others: (M:) or became slender in its lower part, and bared of the stumps of its branches, and scanty in its fruit. (M, K.) And صَنْبَرَ أَسْفَلُ النَّخْلَةِ The lower part of the palm-tree became slender, and stripped of the external parts [or of the stumps of the branches]. (AO, and S in art. صبر, and TA.) صَنْبَرٌ, (K, TA,) or ↓ صُنْبُورٌ, (O,) [both probably correct,] Anything slender and weak, (O, K, TA,) of animals and of trees [&c.]: (O, TA:) [the reg. pl. of the former is صَنَابِرُ: and hence, app.,] b2: ↓ صَنَابِرُ signifies Slender arrows; (T, M;) accord. to IAar: [ISd says,] I have not found it save on his authority; and he has not mentioned a sing. thereof: (M:) [but] accord. to the T, they are so called as being likened to the صَنَابِر [a pl. of صُنْبُورٌ] of the palm-tree: (TA:) occurring in this sense in a verse cited voce ذِلَّةٌ. (IAar, T, M.) صِنْبِرٌ, and صِنَبْرٌ, and الصِّنَبْرُ: see صِنَّبْرٌ.

صَنْبَرَةٌ Ground that has become rough by reason of urine and of dung, or compacted dung, of oxen or sheep &c., (K, TA,) and the like. (TA.) b2: أَخَذْتُ الشَّىْءَ بِصَنْبَرَتِهِ and بِصِنْبِرَتِهِ and بِصَنْوَبِرِهِ [which last is evidently, I think, a mistranscription for ↓ بِصَنَوْبَرِهِ] is a saying mentioned by Ibn-'Abbád as meaning I took the thing altogether. (O.) صِنَّبْرٌ, (S, in art. صبر, M, O, K,) originally

↓ صِنَبْرٌ, (O,) Cold, as a subst.; (M, O;) as also صِنِّبْرٌ: (O:) or cold clouds: (IDrd, O:) or a cold wind (M, K) with mist or clouds: (M:) occurring in a verse of Tarafeh with kesr to the ب: (M:) [see also صُنْبُورٌ:] or صِنَّبِرٌ, occurring in that verse, signifies the intense cold of winter; (S in art. صبر;) as also ↓ صَنَابِرُ, (S, K,) of which the sing. is ↓ صُنْبُورٌ. (TA.) On the expression of Tarafeh, حِينَ هَاجَ الصِّنَّبِرْ, [when the cold wind, with mist, rises,] ending a verse, IJ says that the poet means الصِّنَّبْرُ; but requiring to make the ب movent, he transfers to it the final vowel, as in the phrases هٰذَا بَكُرْ and مَرَرْتُ بِبَكِرْ: he should therefore have said الصِّنَّبُرْ; but regarding the expression as meaning حِينَ هَيْجِ الصِّنَّبْرِ, he makes the ب to be with kesr, as though he transferred to it the kesreh of the ر: this, he adds, is more probable than the opinion that the change is merely one of poetic necessity. (M.) For this last reason, another poet uses the word with teshdeed to the ن and ر, and with kesr to the ب; saying, نُطْعِمُ الشَّحْمَ وَالسَّدِيفَ وَنَسْقِى الْ مَحْضَ فِى الصِّنَّبِرِّ وَالصُّرَّادِ [We give to eat fat and the hump of the camel, and we give to drink pure milk, in the time of cold wind and chill mist]. (K.) b2: Also الصِّنَّبْرُ, (M, K,) or ↓ الصِّنَبْرُ, (as in two copies of the S in art. صبر,) and صِنَّبْرٌ, [without the article ال, occurring in a verse of which the metre requires it to be thus written, with teshdeed to the ن,] (TA,) One, (S,) namely, the second, (M, K,) of the days called أَيَّامُ العَجُوزِ: (S, M, K: [see عَجُوزٌ:]) الصِّنَبْرُ [or الصِّنَّبْرُ] and الصِّنَّبِرُ may have the same meaning, [or meanings, or may both be applied to the day above mentioned, for the application of صِنَّبْرٌ to that day is certain;] poetic necessity requiring the ب to be movent. (S.) b3: صِنَّبِرٌ has also two contr. significations, namely, Hot: and cold: accord. to Th, on the authority of IAar. (M.) You say غَدَاةٌ صِنَّبِرٌ, (M,) or صِنَّبْرٌ, (K,) and ↓ صِنْبِرٌ, (as in a copy of the M,) or صِنِّبْرٌ, (K,) A cold morning: (M, K:) and a hot morning. (K.) صُنْبُورٌ A solitary palm-tree, apart from others, (AO, S in art. صبر, and M, A in art. صبر, and K,) the lower part of which becomes slender, (S and A in art. صبر,) and stripped of the external parts [or the stumps of the branches]: (S ubi suprà:) and a palm-tree slender in its lower part, and bared of the stumps of its branches, and scanty in its fruit; (M, K;) as also ↓ صُنْبُورَةٌ: (M:) and a palm-tree that comes forth from the root, or lower part, of another palm-tree, without being planted: (M:) or a little palm-tree that does not grow from its mother-tree: (Ibn-Sim'án:) and the lowest part of a palm-tree, (AHn, Ibn-Sim'án, M, K,) from which the roots branch off: (AHn, M:) and branches that come forth from the lowest part of a palm-tree: (M, K:) or a branch that comes forth from the trunk of a palmtree, not from the ground: this is [said to be] the original signification: (T, TA:) or branches that come forth from the trunk of a palm-tree, not having their roots in the ground: such branches weaken the mother-tree, which is cured by pulling them off: the pl. is صَنَابِيرُ (IAar) and ↓ صَنَابِرُ: (T, TA:) and the صَنَابِير are also called رَوَاكِيبُ and عِقَّانٌ. (Ibn-Sim'án.) b2: Hence, (A,) applied to a man, Solitary; lonely: (IAar:) or solitary, or lonely, without offspring and without brother: (S, A:) or solitary, weak, vile, or ignominious, having no family nor offspring nor assistant: (M, K:) or having no offspring, nor kinsfolk or near relations, nor assistant, whether of strangers or relations: and weak: (IAar:) and mean, or ignoble. (M, K.) See also صَنْبَرٌ. And A young, or little, (K,) or weak, (TA,) boy, or child. (K, TA.) It was applied as an epithet to Mohammad, by the unbelievers, as also [its dim.] ↓ صُنَيْبِيرٌ, (M, TA,) or they called him صُنْبُورٌ, (O,) meaning that he had no offspring nor brother, so that, when he should die, his name would be lost; (M, TA;) likening him to a [solitary] palm-tree, of which the lower part had become slender, and the branches few, and which had become dry; (AO;) or to a branch growing from the trunk of a palm-tree. (TA.) A2: The tube, or pipe, that is in the [kind of leathern vessel, or bag, for water, called] إِدَاوَة, of iron, (S, M, A, K,) or of lead, (S, M, K,) or brass, (A,) or of other material, (K,) from which one drinks. (S, M, A, K.) b2: The [aperture called] مَثْعَب of a watering-trough or tank [from which the water runs out]: (S, M, K:) or the hole, or perforation, thereof, from which the water issues when it is washed.

A2: And] The middle of anything. (O.) الظِّلُّ الصَّنَوْبَرِىُّ The cone-shaped shade of the earth, on entering which the moon becomes eclipsed.]

صُنَيْبِيرٌ dim. of صُنْبُورٌ, q. v. (M, TA.) نَخْلَةٌ مُصَنْبِرَةٌ A palm-tree that produces branches from its trunk: such branches spoil it; for they take the nourishment from the mother-tree, and weaken it. (Aboo-Sa'eed, TA.)

(K.) دَابَّةٌ [originally a fem. part. n.], for نَفْسٌ دَابَّةٌ, (M,) [or the ة is added لِلنَّقْلِ, i. e. for the purpose of transferring the word from the category of epithets to that of substs.,] Anything that walks [or creeps or crawls] upon the earth; as also ↓ دَبِيبٌ: (S: see دِبَّةٌ:) an animal that walks or creeps or crawls (يَدِبُّ); (M, A, K;) discriminating and not discriminating: (M:) any animal upon the earth: (Msb:) it is said in the Kur [xxiv. 44], وَاللّٰهُ خَلَقَ كُلَّ دَابَّةٍ مِنْ مَآءٍ فَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَمْشِى عَلَى بَطْنِهِ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَمْشِى عَلَى رِجْلَيْنِ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ يَمْشِى عَلَى أَرْبَعٍ [And God hath created every دابّة of water (meaning of the seminal fluid); and of them is he that goeth upon his belly, and of them is he that goeth upon two legs, and of them is he that goeth upon four]: here, as دابّة applies to a rational and an irrational creature, the expression فمنهم is used; for which, if it applied only to an irrational creature, فَمِنْهَا or فَمِنْهُنَّ would be used: moreover, the expression من يمشى is used, though دابّة applies originally to an irrational creature, [or rather a beast, and a reptile,] because the different classes of beings are spoken of collectively: (M:) and this passage of the Kur refutes the assertion of him who excludes the bird from the significations of this word: (Msb:) in the last verse but one of ch. xxxv. of the Kur, it is said to relate to mankind and the jinn (or genii) and every rational being; or to have a general signification: (M:) its predominant signification is a beast that is ridden: (S, M, A, K:) especially a beast of the equine kind; i. e. a horse, a mule, and an ass: (Kull:) or particularly a بِرْذَوْن [meaning hackney, or horse for ordinary use and for journeying: (M:) but as particularly applied, when used absolutely, to a horse and a mule, it is an adventitious conventional term: (Msb:) it is applied to a male and a female: (M, A, Msb, K:) and is properly an epithet: (M:) pl. دَوَابُّ. (Msb, TA.) The dim. [signifying Any small animal that walks or creeps or crawls upon the earth, a small beast, a small reptile or creeping thing, a creeping insect, and any insect, and also a mollusk, a shell-fish (as in an instance cited voce مَحَارَةٌ in art. حور) and the like,] is ↓ دُوَيْبَّةٌ, (Zj, T, Msb,) in which the ى is quiescent, but pronounced with إِشْمَام [i. e. a slight approximation to the sound of kesr], as it is in every similar case, in a dim. n., when followed by a doubled letter: (Zj, T:) and ↓ دُوَابَّةٌ also has been heard, with the ى changed into ا anomalously. (Msb; and L in art. هد, on the authority of ISd.) b2: دَابَّةُ الأَرْضِ [The Beast of the Earth] is an appellation of one of the signs of the time of the resurrection: (S, M, K:) or the first of those signs. (K.) It is said to be a beast sixty cubits in length, or height, with legs, and with fur (وَبَر), and to be diverse in form, resembling a number of different animals. (TA.) It will come forth in Tihámeh, or between Es-Safà and ElMarweh, (M,) or at Mekkeh, from Jebel Es-Safà, which will rend open for its egress, during one of the nights when people are going to Minè; or from the district of Et-Táïf; (K) or from three places, three several times. (M, K.) It will make, upon the face of the unbeliever, a black mark; and upon the face of the believer, a white mark: the unbeliever's mark will spread until his whole face becomes black; and the believer's, until his whole face becomes white: then they will assemble at the table, and the believer will be known from the unbeliever. (M.) It is also said that it will have with it the rod of Moses and the seal of Solomon: with the former it will strike the believer; and with the latter it will stamp the face of the unbeliever, impressing upon it “ This is an unbeliever. ” (K.) b3: See also أَرَضَةٌ.

دَيْبُوبٌ: see دَبُوبٌ.

دُوَابَّةٌ: dims. of دَابَّةٌ, q. v.

دُوَيْبَّةٌ: dims. of دَابَّةٌ, q. v.

أَدَبٌّ Having down (K, TA) upon the face: (TA:) or having much hair: (M, K:) and having much وَبَر [or fur]: (M:) it is applied to a man: (M:) and to a camel, (M, K,) in the second of these senses, (K, TA,) or in the third sense, or as meaning having much fur upon the face; (TA;) or i. q. أَزَبُّ: (M:) and occurs in a trad. written أَدْبَب, (M, K,) to assimilate it in measure to a preceding word, namely, حَوْءَب: (M:) the fem. is دَبَّآءُ; with which ↓ دَبِبَةٌ is syn.; (M, K;) signifying a woman having hair upon her face: (TA:) or having much hair upon the جَبِين [or part above the temple]. (M, TA.) مَدِبٌّ and مَدَبٌّ The track, or course, of a torrent, (S, M, K, *) and of ants: (S, K:) pl. مَدَابُّ. (TA.) One says, of a sword, لَهُ أَثْرٌ كَأَنَّهُ مَدَبُّ النَّمْلِ and مَدَابُّ الذَّرِّ [It has diversified wavy marks like the track of ants and the tracks of little ants]. (TA.) The subst. is with kesr; and the inf. n., with fet-h; accord. to a rule constantly obtaining, (S, * K, * TA,) except in some anomalous instances, (TA,) when the verb is of the measure فَعَلَ (S, K, TA) or فَعِلَ, (TA,) and its aor. is of the measure يَفْعِلُ. (S, K, TA.) [Here it should be observed that مَجْرًى, given as the explanation of مَدِبٌّ and مَدَبٌّ in the K, is both an inf. n. and a n. of place and of time: but J clearly explains both these words as above; and F seems, in the K, to assign to them both the same signification.]

أَرْضٌ مَدَبَّةٌ A land abounding with دِبَبَة [or bears]. (T, S, M. *) مُدَبَّبٌ, like مُعَظَّمٌ, (TA,) or مِدْبَبٌ, (so in a copy of the T, according to the TT,) an epithet applied to a camel, (T, TA,) signifying الذى يمشى دبادب (TA) [app. دَبَادِبَ, and if so it seems to mean That walks quickly, with short steps: or that makes a sound with his feet, like دُبْ دُبْ: see دَبْدَبَةٌ: but in the TT it is written دَباْ دَباْ; perhaps correctly دَبًّا دَبًّا, creeping and creeping].
