It is of the measure اِفْمَعَلَّ, from السَّدَرُ; (IKtt;) the م being augmentative. (S.) See also سَدِرَ. b2: اسمدرّت عَيْنُهُ His eye shed tears; accord. to Lh; but this is not known in the classical language. (M in art. سمدر.) سِدْرٌ [a coll. gen. n., The species of lote-tree called by Linnæus rhamnus spina Christi; and by Forskål, rhamnus nabeca;] the tree, or trees, of which the fruit is called نَبِق and نَبْق: (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) sing., (Msb,) or [rather] n. un., (S, M, K,) سِدْرَةٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) and sometimes سِدْرٌ is used as meaning the smallest or smaller of numbers [generally denoting from three to ten inclusively]: (Ibn-Es-Sarráj, Msb:) AHn says, accord. to Aboo-Ziyád, the سِدْر is of the kind called عِضَاه, and is of two species, عُبْرِىٌّ and ضَالٌ: the عبرى is that which has no thorns except such as do not hurt: the ضال has thorns [which hurt]: the سدر has a broad round leaf: and sometimes people alight and rest beneath a tree of this kind; but the ضال is small: the best نبق that is known in the land of the Arabs is in Hejer (هَجَر), in a single piece of land which is appropriated to the Sultán alone: it is the sweetest of all in taste and odour: the mouth of him who eats it, and the garments of him who has it upon him, diffuse an odour like that of perfume: (M, TA:) it is [also] said that the سدر is of two species; whereof one grows in the cultivated lands, and its leaves are used in the ablution termed غُسْل, and its fruit is sweet; and the other grows in the desert, and its leaves are not so used, and its fruit is juicy: the زُعْرُور is so described that it may be supposed to be the wild نبق: (Msb:) when سِدْرٌ is used absolutely, with relation to the ablution termed غُسْل, it means the ground leaves of the tree so called: (Mgh, * Msb:) the pl. of سِدْرَةٌ is سِدْرَاتٌ and سِدِرَاتٌ and سِدَرَاتٌ (S, K) and سِدَرٌ (S, M, K) and سُدُورٌ, (M, K,) which last is extr. (M.) b2: سِدْرَةُ المُنْتَهَى is said to be The lote-tree in the Seventh Heaven; (Lth, K; *) beyond which neither angel nor prophet passes, and which shades the water and Paradise: (Lth:) in the Saheeh it is said to be in the Sixth Heaven: 'Iyád reconciles the two assertions by the supposition that its root is in the Sixth, and that it rises over the Seventh: accord. to IAth, it is in the furthest part of Paradise to which, as its furthest limit, extends the knowledge of ancients and moderns. (MF, TA.) سَدَرٌ [see 1]. You say, فِى بَصَرِهِ سَدَرٌ, and ↓ سَمَادِيرُ, In his sight is a confusedness, so that he does not see well. (A.) b2: Some say that it signifies An affection resembling vertigo, common to a voyager upon the sea: or [simply] vertigo. (TA in art. بقل.) سَدِرٌ Having his eyes dazzled by a thing, so that he turns away his face from it: or in a state of confusion or perplexity, and unable to see his right course: syn. مُتَحَيِّرٌ: (K:) as also ↓ سَادِرٌ: (S, K:) and the former, a camel having his eyes dazzled by a thing, so that he turns away his face from it, by reason of intense heat: (S:) and also one having his eyes dazzled by snow; as well as by intense heat.

(IAar, TA in art. سد.) b4: Also سَدِرٌ The sea: (S, M, K:) one of the [proper] names thereof; (S;) occurring only in a poem of Umeiyeh Ibn-Abi-s-Salt: (M:) he says, فَكَأَنَّ بِرْقِعَ وَالمَلَائِكُ حَوْلَهُ سَدِرٌ تَوَاكَلُهُ القَوَائِمُ أَجْرَدُ [And as though the first heaven, with the angels around it, were the sea, the winds deserting it, and smooth]: (S, M, TA: [but in the M and TA, for حَوْلَهُ, we find حَوْلَهَا; and in the S, for أَجْرَدُ, we find أَجْرَبُ, which is inconsistent with the rhyme of the poem:]) by القوائم he means the winds; and by تواكله, [for تَتَوَاكَلُهُ,] تَرَكَتْهُ [or rather تَتْرُكُهُ]: he likens the sky to the sea when calm: (TA:) Th quotes thus: وَكَأَنَّ بِرْقِعَ وَالمَلَائِكُ تَحْتَهَا سَدِرٌ تَوَاكَلُهُ قَوَائِمُ أَرْبَعُ and says that the poet likens the angels, with respect to their fear of God, to a man affected with a vertigo [lit., turning round, though it would seem more appropriate had he said, the poet likens them to a camel so affected, whom his four legs failed: he prefaces this explanation with the words, سَدِرٌ يَدُورُ وَقَوَائِمُ أَرْبَعُ هُمُ المَلَائِكَةُ; to which he or ISd adds, لَا يَدْرِى كَيْفَ خَلْقُهُم: but (using a common phrase of ISd) I can only say, لَا أَدْرِى كَيْفَ هٰذَا; unless there be some omission in the transcription]: (M, TA:) Sgh says that the correct reading is سِدْرٌ, meaning the kind of tree so called, not the sea; and the author of the Námoos adopts his opinion; but MF rejects it: (TA:) some read رَقْعًا [in the place of برقع] and explain it as meaning the seventh heaven. (TA in art. رقع.) سِدْرِىٌّ One who grinds and sells the leaves of the سِدْر. (TA.) [See also سَدَّارٌ.]

سِدَارٌ A thing resembling a [curtain of the kind called] خِدْر: (K:) or resembling a كِلَّة, which is put across a [tent of the kind called] خِبَآء. (M.) سَدَّارٌ A seller of the leaves of the سِدْر. (TA.) [See also سِدْرِىٌّ.]

سَادِرٌ: see سَدِرٌ. b2: Also Losing his way: you say, إِنَّهُ سَادِرٌ فِى الغَىِّ Verily he is losing his way, in error. (A.) And أَتَى أَمْرَهُ سَادِرًا i. e.

(K in art. سمدر.) الأَسْدَرَانِ The shoulder-joints, (S, M, A, K,) and the sides: (S, K:) or (so in the M, but accord. to the K “ and ”) two veins (M, K) in the eye, (M,) or in the two eyes: (K:) or beneath the temples. (M.) Hence the saying جَآءَ يَضْرِبُ

أَسْدَرَيْهِ He came beating (with his hands, TA) his shoulder-joints (S, A, K) and his sides; (S, K;) meaning, (tropical:) he came empty, (S, A, K,) having nothing in his hand, (S,) or having no occupation, (M,) and without having accomplished the object of his desire: (S, K:) and in like manner, أَصْدَرَيْهِ: (S:) and جَآءَ يَنْفُضُ أَسْدَرَيْهِ, (Az,) and أَصْدَرَيْهِ, (TA,) and أَزْدَرَيْهِ, (ISk,) he came shaking his shoulder-joints: (Az:) or his sides: meaning as above.

فر

ى1 فَرَاهُ, (M, K,) aor. ـْ (K,) inf. n. فَرْىٌ, (K,) He slit it, or cut it lengthwise, ill, or improperly; or well, or properly; as also ↓ فرّاهُ and ↓ افراهُ [both relating to both of the foregoing explanations]: (K:) or he slit it, or cut it lengthwise, and made it bad, or improper; as also ↓ فرّاهُ: or, accord. to the sound lexicologists, the former has this meaning: but ↓ افرى signifies he slit, or cut lengthwise, and made good, or proper: (M:) or ↓ افراهُ (M, K) signifies, (M,) or signifies also, (K,) he made it good, or proper: or he ordered [another] to make it so: (M, K:) as though he removed from it unsoundness, or imperfection: but some say that this signifies he slit it, or cut it lengthwise, and made it bad, or improper: and when you mean he measured it, and cut it, to make it good, or proper, you say فَرَاهُ, inf. n. فَرْىٌ: (M:) [thus, accord. to J,] فَرَى, aor. and inf. n. as above, signifies he cut a thing in order to make it good, or proper: (S:) or he cut a skin, or hide, in a good, or proper, manner: (Ks, S, Msb:) and ↓ افرى he cut it in a bad, or an improper, manner: (Ks, S:) or this signifies he slit much, in a bad, or an improper, manner: and افرى الجِلْدَ, accord. to As, he rent, tore, or slit, the skin, and made holes in it, and spoiled it: and افرى signifies also he slit a thing (S, M, Msb) of any kind; (as also ↓ فرّاهُ:]) thus you say, افرى الأَودَاجَ he slit the اوداج [or external jugular veins], (T, M, Mgh, Msb,) and made what was in them, of the blood, to come forth; (T, Mgh, Msb;) and in like manner one says of a garment, or piece of cloth, and of a جُلَّة [or receptacle for dates, made of palm-leaves woven together]; (T;) or he cut the اوداج: (S:) IAar alone mentions فَرَى أَوْدَاجَهُ and ↓ افراها: (M:) [but it is also said that فَرَى signifies he cut a نِطَع [or the like]: (K in art. خلق: [see an ex. in a verse cited in the first paragraph of that art.; also cited in the T after the first of the explanations here following, and in the M after the second thereof:]) or فَرَى, aor. and inf. n. as above, signifies he measured, and worked, or manufactured, and made good, or proper, a thing, such as a sandal, or a نِطَع [q. v.], or a water-skin, and the like: (T:) or he measured it, and cut it, to make it good, or proper: (M:) and he measured and manufactured a مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag]: (S, K:) or he sewed, and made well, or properly, a مزادة: (T:) [it is said that] the difference between ↓ الإِفْرَاءُ an الفَرْىُ is this, that the former signifies the cutting so as to render bad, or improper, and the slitting like as the slaughterer and the wild beast slit [their victims]; and the latter, the cutting so as to make good, or proper, like the act of cutting of the sewer of the hide, or of leather: but فَرَى

sometimes occurs in the sense of افرى: (Mgh:) one says, رَأْسَهُ ↓ أَفْرَيْتُ, meaning I split, or clave, his head with a sword; like أَفْرَرْتُهُ: (Yz, T &c. in art. فر:) and افرى الجُرْحَ he slit the wound: (T:) and افرى الذِّئْبُ بَطْنَ الشَّاةِ [the wolf slit, or rent, the belly of the sheep, or goat]: (S:) and one says, قَدْ أَفْرَيْتَ وَمَا فَرَيْتَ i. e. thou hast done ill, or improperly, and hast not done well, or properly. (A, TA.) b2: فَرَاهُ, aor. as above, [and so the inf. n.,] is sometimes metonymically used [as meaning (tropical:) He slaughtered him, or butchered him; i. e.] as denoting vehemence, or excess, in slaying. (TA.) b3: And it means also (assumed tropical:) He cut him with censure, or satire: (TA:) and ↓ افرى means he blamed, or censured, a man. (M, K.) b4: and you say, فَرَيْتُ الأَرْضَ (tropical:) I traversed, or crossed, (lit. travelled and cut,) the land, or country; (T, S, K, TA;) inf. n. as above. (TA.) b5: هُوَ يَفْرِى

↓ الفَرِىَّ means (assumed tropical:) He effects what is wonderful in his deed. (S, K.) أَحَدٌ ↓ مَا يَفْرِى فَرِيَّهُ, thus, with teshdeed [to the ى in فريه] as related by A'Obeyd, is said of a courageous man [as meaning No one does his deed, or the like]: but it is said [by Kh] to be correctly فَرْيَهُ, [as an inf. n.,] without tesh-deed. (M. [See, however, what follows.]) They say, ↓ تَرَكْتُهُ يَفْرِى الفَرِىَّ, meaning [I left him] doing well, or excellently, in a deed, or in watering: [an explanation relating to what here follows:] the Prophet said, respecting 'Omar, whom he saw in a dream drawing water at a well with a great bucket, ↓ فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا يَفْرِى فَرِيَّهُ [And I have not seen a chief of a people do his deed, &c.]: (T:) or, as some relate it, he said فَرْيَهُ: (TA:) [but] A'Obeyd says, this is like thy saying يَعْمَلُ عَمَلَهُ and يَقُولُ قَوْلَهُ; and Fr cited to us [as an ex.]

↓ قَدْ كُنْتِ تَفْرِينَ بِهِ الفَرِيَّا meaning [Verily] thou didst multiply and magnify thy words respecting it: (T: and in like manner this hemistich [which shows, by the measure, that الفَرِيَّا cannot be here a mistake for الفَرْيَا,] is expl. in the S:) it is said that ↓ فَرِىّ thus used is of the measure فَعيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, from فَرَى signifying “ he cut ” [or “ cut lengthwise ” or “ slit ”] a hide, or leather; (Har p. 257; [where see more;]) [and this assertion is corroborated by the fact that] one says of a man strenuous, or vigorous, in an affair, and strong, وَيَقُدُّ ↓ تَرَكْتُهُ يَفْرِى الفَرِىَّ [lit. I left him slitting, or cutting, the slit, or cut, thing, and shaping].

أَرْمِى وَلَا وَدَّعْتُ صَاحِبْ [And I became confounded, &c., by reason of fright, so that I did not shoot an arrow, nor bade I farewell to a friend]: (T, M:) or, accord. to As, فَرِىَ, aor. ـْ signifies he looked, and knew not what he should do: (T:) and فَرِيتُ signifies also I wondered; from ↓ الفَرِىُّ meaning “ that which is wonderful. ” (Skr, on the verse above-cited.) 2 فَرَّىَ see 1, first quarter, in three places.4 أَفْرَىَ see 1, former half, in seven places: b2: and also in the latter half, near the middle of the paragraph.5 تفرّى It became slit, or cut lengthwise; (S, M, Msb, K;) as also ↓ انفرى; (S, M, Msb;) both said of a skin, (M,) or of a thing: (S:) or it became much slit, or rent; said of the sewing of a leathern water-skin.

The horse threw, or threw down, [i. e. threw off,] his rider: (T:) رَمَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ is said إِذَا رَمَيْتَهُ بِيَدِكَ; [i. e., as meaning رَمَيْتُهُ بِيَدِى; which may be rendered I threw him (the man) with my hand; and also I threw, or shot, at him (the man) with my hand;] but when you remove him from his place, you say, عَنِ الفَرَسِ وَغَيْرِهِ ↓ أَرْمَيْتُهُ [I threw him, or threw him down or off, from the horse &c.]: (Msb:) and عَنْ فَرَسِهِ ↓ طَعَنَهُ فَأَرْمَاهُ, meaning [He thrust him, or pierced him, with his spear,] and threw him, or threw him down [or off], from his horse: (El-Fárábee, S, Msb:) and الحِمْلَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ ↓ أَرْمَيْتُ I threw down the load from the back of the camel. (T.) وَمَا رَمَيْتَ

إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمَى, in the Kur [viii. 17], is said by Aboo-Is-hák to be tropical, and to mean (tropical:) And thou didst not cast [in effect, or] so as to attain the point that was attained, [when thou didst cast,] but God [cast in effect, i. e.,] overruled the casting: or, accord. to Abu-l-' Abbás, the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) thou didst not cast fear, or terror, into their hearts, when thou didst cast the pebbles, [but God cast the fear, or terror:] or, accord. to Mbr, (assumed tropical:) thou didst not cast with thy strength, when thou didst cast, but with the strength of God thou didst cast [so that in effect God cast]. (T. [See also another explanation in what follows.]) b2: [رَمَى بِسَلْحِهِ He cast forth his excrement, or ordure, or properly, in a thin state, is a phrase of frequent occurrence.] b3: You say also, رَمَيْتُ بِالسَّهْمِ [I shot the arrow], inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ.

though some make it to mean [رَمَى عَنْهَا or] رَمَى

عَلَيْهَا, making the ب to be instead of عن or على. (Msb.) b4: And رَمَى القَنَصَ, (S, M,) or الصَّيْدَ, [He shot, or shot at, the animal, or animals, of the chase,] inf. n. رَمْىٌ and رِمَايَةٌ, (Msb,) or رَمْىٌ, and none other. (M.) [And رَمَاهُ بِكَذَا He threw at him, cast at him, or shot at him, with such a thing; i. e. he threw it, cast it, or shot it, at him: and, more commonly, he threw at him, or cast at him, and hit him, or he shot him, with such a thing: namely, with a stone, an arrow, &c. and رَمَاهُ بِحِجَارَةً He threw at him with stones, threw stones at him: and he pelted him with stones, i. e. threw at him and hit him with stones.] and رَمَى فِى الأَغْرَاضِ [He shot, or cast, at the butts]. (ISk, T, S, M.) b5: [Hence,] one says, in cursing a person, رَمَى اللّٰهُ فِى يَدِهِ, and أَنْفِهِ, (assumed tropical:) [May God aim at, and smite, with some bane, or malady, his hand, or arm, and his nose,] and in like manner in relation to other members. (M, K. *) [And رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِكَذَا, sometimes meaning (assumed tropical:) God smote him, or afflicted him, with such a thing: but generally, may God smite him, or afflict him, with such a thing; as in the saying,] رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِدَآءِ الذِّئْبِ (assumed tropical:) [May God smite him, or afflict him, with the disease of the wolf]; a prov., meaning may God destroy him, or cause him to perish; because [it is said that] the wolf has no disease but death: or, as some say, the meaning is, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِالجُوعِ [may God afflict him with hunger]; because the wolf is always hungry. (Meyd.) and رَمَاهُ بِدَاهِيَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [He (God) sent upon him, or against him,. or smote him with, a calamity: and also] (assumed tropical:) he (a man) made a very sagacious and crafty and politic man to be his assailant. (L in art. حجر. [See also, in that art., رُمِىَ فُلَانٌ بِحَجِرِ الأَرْضِ, and بِحَجَرِهِ.]) [And رَمَاهُ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He assailed him with such a thing; as, for instance, reproach, and an argument, &c. Hence,] رَمَاهُ بِقَبِيحٍ, (TA,) or بِأَمْرٍ قَبِيحٍ, (IAar, T,) or بِالقَبِيحِ, (Msb,) (assumed tropical:) He reproached him, or upbraided him, with a thing, or with that, which was bad, evil, abominable, or foul: (IAar, T, Msb, TA:) whence the usage of the verb alone [in this sense, adultery being understood,] in the Kur xxiv. 4 and 6. (T, TA.) [And رَمَاهُ بِسُوْءٍ (assumed tropical:) He cast an evil imputation upon him; accused him, or suspected him, of evil: see مَرْمِىٌّ. And رَمَاهُ alone (assumed tropical:) He accused him, or suspected him.] And رَمَاهُ بِالحَقِّ (assumed tropical:) [He accused him with truth]. (L in art. قرح, in explanation of قَرَحَهُ بِالحَقِّ.) [And رَمَاهُ بِلِسَانِهِ (assumed tropical:) He spoke against him.] b6: رَمَى اللّٰهُ لَكَ means (tropical:) May God aid thee, or aid thee against thine enemy, and work [good] for thee: (AO, S, TA: *) and رَمَى اللّٰهُ لَهُ (tropical:) God aided him, or aided him against his enemy, (AAF, M, K, TA,) and wrought [good] for him: (AAF, M, TA:) and [it is said that] the verb has this meaning in the words of the Kur, وَمَا رَمَيْتَ إِذْ رَمَيْتَ وَلٰكِنَّ اللّٰهَ رَمَى

[of which other explanations have been given above]; because, when God aids a person against his enemy, He aims at, and smites, (يَرْمِى,) that enemy. (M, TA.) [In like manner, also, فُلَانٌ يَرْمِى مِنْ وَرَآءِ فُلَانٍ means (assumed tropical:) Such a one defends such a one.] b7: رُمِيتُ بِكَذَا (tropical:) I had such a thing offered, or presented, to me, the meeting with it being appointed, or prepared; [I had it as it were thrown to me, or thrown in my way; as though I were thrown at therewith;] like نُبِذْتُ بِهِ. (A in art. نبذ.) b8: رَمَانِى القَوْمُ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ (assumed tropical:) The people, or party, [cast their eyes, on me: or] looked at me sideways, or did so with anger, or aversion: or looked at me hardly, or intently.

(Th, M, TA.) And رَمَى الرَّجُلُ (assumed tropical:) The man journeyed. (IAar, T, TA.) And Az says, (TA,) I heard an Arab of the desert say to another, أَيْنَ تَرْمِى, meaning (assumed tropical:) Whither dost thou direct thy course. (T, TA.) One says, رَأَيْتُ نَاسًا يَرْمُونَ الطَّائِفَ (assumed tropical:) I saw men directing their course to, or towards, Et-Táïf. (Har p. 54.) [See also an ex. in a verse of Dhu-r-Rummeh cited in p. 78.] b10: رَمَوْهَا بِأَثْوَابٍ خِفَافٍ, in a verse cited voce ثَوْبٌ, [They cast upon them light, or agile, bodies,] means they mounted them with their [light, or agile,] bodies; referring to camels. (T and TA in art. ثوب.) b11: رُمِىَ فِى جِنَازَتِهِ He has been carried, or lifted, and put, into, or upon, his bier, means (assumed tropical:) he died, or has died: (TA:) it is said in giving information of a man's death. (TA in art. جنز.) b12: [رَمَى also app. means (assumed tropical:) He (a governor) imposed an impost upon his subjects: see رَمِيَّةٌ.]

b13: And رَمَى, aor. ـْ means also (assumed tropical:) He misconjectured; thought wrongly; or formed a wrong opinion: (IAar, T:) [and app. he threw out a conjecture: or he spoke conjecturally; for Az adds,] it is like the phrase رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ [or رَجَمَ بِالغَيْبِ or قَالَ رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ]. (T.) b14: رَمَى السَّحَابُ: see 6. b15: رَمَى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ: see 4.

A2: رَمُوَ is a verb of the same kind as قَضُوَ and هَيُؤَ, [invariable as to person, time, and mood,] and means Excel-lent [or how excellent] is he in his throwing, or shooting! (IJ, TA voce هَيُؤَ, q. v. [See also بَطُؤَ, voce بُطْآنَ.]) 3 رَامَيْتُهُ, (S, K,) and رَامَيْتُهُ بِالسِّهَامِ, (TA,) inf. n. مُرَامَاةٌ and رِمَآءٌ (T, S, K) and ↓ تَرْمَآءٌ, (K,) or this last is like the two preceding ns. [in meaning, but is a quasi-inf. n.], (T,) [I threw, or shot, (generally the latter,) and I shot arrows, with him, or at him; (see 6;) mostly meaning in competition, or contention; i. e. I competed, or contended, with him, in throwing, or shooting, and in shooting arrows: and رَامَيْتُهُ alone often means رَامَيْتُهُ بِالحِجَارَةِ, or بِالسِّهَامِ; whence it is said that] مُرَامَاةٌ signifies the shooting arrows, and throwing stones, with any one. (KL.) It is said in a prove., respecting an affair in which one is forward before doing it, قَبْلَ الرِّمَآءِ تُمْلَأُ الكَنَائِنُ [Before shooting arrows with another, or doing so in competition or contention, the quivers are to be filled]. (A 'Obeyd, T.) 4 أَرْمَىَ see 1, first sentence, in seven places: b2: and see also 6.

A2: ارمى, (M, Mgh,) inf. n. إِرْمَآءٌ, (Mgh,) also signifies It (a thing, Mgh) exceeded. (M, Mgh.) You say, ارمى عَلَيْهِ It (anything) exceeded it, namely, another thing. (M.) Hátim-Teiyi says, وَأَسْمَرَ خَطِّيًّا كَأَنَّ كُعُوبَهُ نَوَى القَسْبِ قَدْ أَرْمَى ذِرَاعًا عَلَى العَشْرِ [And a tawny spear of El-Khatt, as though its knots, or joints, were hard date-stones; one that exceeded a cubit over the ten]: (T, S:) i. e., قَدْ زَادَ عَلَيْهَا. (T.) And hence, (T,) you say, ارمى عَلَى الخَمْسِينَ, i. e. He exceeded [the age of fifty]; (Az, A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K;) [like اربى;] as also ↓ رَمَى; (Az, T, S, M, K;) [for] رَمْىٌ signifies the exceeding in age: and one says also أَرْمَأَ and رَمَأَ in the same sense. (IAar, T.) and ارمى فُلَانٌ signifies the same as أَرْبَى [meaning Such a one took usury or the like]. (S.) See also رَمَآءٌ, below. You say also, سَابَّهُ فَأَرْمَى عَلَيْهِ, i. e. [He reciprocated reviling, or vilifying, with him, and] he exceeded him. (S.) 5 ترمّى He shot, or cast, at the butts, and at the trunks of trees. (ISk, T, S, M.) 6 تَرَامَيْنَا and ↓ اِرْتَمَيْنَا [We cast, or shot, (generally the latter,) one with another, or one at another; mostly meaning in competition, or contention; i. e. we competed, or contended, together in throwing, or shooting]: (S, K:) and ترامى القَوْمُ بِالسِّهَامِ and ↓ ارتموا The people, or party, shot arrows, [one with another, or] one at another. (T.) b2: [Hence,] ترامت بِهِ البِلَادُ (tropical:) The countries cast him forth, or expelled him; (M, K, TA;) [as though they bandied him, one to another;] as also ↓ ارتمت, (so in a copy of the M, [which I think correct,]) or ↓ ارمت. (K.) b3: And ترامى السَّحَابُ (assumed tropical:) The clouds became drawn, or joined, together, (M, K, TA,) [as though thrown, one at another,] and heaped, or piled, up; (TA;) as also ↓ رَمَى. (M, TA.) b4: And ترامى أَمْرُهُ إِلَى

الظَّفَرِ; or إِلَى الخِذْلَانِ; i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His affair, or case,] came eventually [to the attainment of what was desired, or sought; or to abandonment by God]. (T, K, TA.) Hence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., of Zeyd Ibn-Háritheh, سُبِىَ فِى الجَاهِلِيَّةِ فَتَرَامَى الأَمْرُ أَنْ صَارَلِخَدِيجَةَ, (T, TA,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [He was made a captive in the Time of Ignorance, and the case] came eventually, and led, [to his becoming the property of Khadeejeh, (إِلَى being understood before أَنْ صَارَ,)] as though the decrees [of God] cast him thereto. (IAth, TA.) One says also, ترامى الأَمْرُ, meaning تَرَاخَى [i. e. (assumed tropical:) The affair was sluggish, or backward]: (K:) [or] one says of a [purulent swelling such as is termed]

حِيْن, (T,) or of a wound, (S,) ترامى إِلَى فَسَادٍ, (T,) or الى الفَسَادِ, (S,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) It was in a sluggish, or backward, state, (تَرَاخَى,) and became putrid and corrupt. (T.)

(MA.) b5: ترامت سَفْرَتُهُ (assumed tropical:) His journey was, or became, distant, or far-extending. (Har p. 34.) b6: تراماهُ الشَّبَابُ Youthfulness, or youthful vigour, attained its full term [in him]. (Skr, M.) 8 ارتمى It was, or became, thrown, cast, or flung. (S, K, TA.) It fell to the ground: so in the saying, ارتمى الحِمْلُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ البَعِيرِ [The load fell to the ground, or it may mean was thrown down, from the back of the camel]. (T.) b2: Also He shot, or shot at, an animal, or animals, of the chase. (T, S, M.) b3: See also 6, in three places.

رَمْىٌ [originally an inf. n.]: see رَمِىٌّ.

رِمًى The sound of a stone (T, K) thrown at a boy (so accord. to a copy of the T) or thrown by a boy; (K;) on the authority of IAar. (T.) A2: رِمًا [thus written in the M]: see رَمَآءٌ.

رَمْيَةٌ A single throw, or cast, or fling: and a single shot: (Mgh, Msb, TA:) pl. رَمَيَاتٌ. (Msb, TA.) رُبَّ رَمْيَةٍ مِنْ غَيْرِ رَامٍ [Many a hitting shot, or scarce any hitting shot, is there without a skilled shooter] is a prov. [applied to the case of an unexpected success obtained by an inexperienced person;] meaning many a [hitting] shot, or scarce any [hitting] shot, originates from a shooter that [usually] misses. (Meyd) رَمَآءٌ, (S, IAth, K, in a copy of the T and in a copy of the S without any vowel-sign,) with fet-h and medd, (IAth, and so in a copy of the S, in which it is added that it is said by Ks to be with medd,) like سَمَآءٌ; (K;) or ↓ رِمَآءٌ; (Mgh, and so in a copy of the T;) or ↓ رِمًا, said by Lh to be formed by substitution [of م for ب, as is shown by what follows]; (M;) An excess, or an addition; i. e., (A 'Obeyd, T, Mgh,) i. q. رِبًا, (A 'Obeyd, T, S, M, K,) or رِبًوا, (Mgh, and thus written in some copies of the S and K, or in most of the copies of the K, [meaning usury, and the like,]) or an excess, or addition, over what is lawful. (T, IAth.) Hence the trad. of 'Omar, لَا تَبِيعُوا, (A 'Obeyd, T,) or he said لَا تَشْتَرُوا, (S,) الذَّهَبَ بِالفِضَّةِ إِلَّا يَدًا بِيَدٍ هَا وَهَا, [or هَأْ وَهَأْ, (see art. هوأ,)] or هَآء وَهَآء, [i. e. هَآءَ وَهَآءَ,] (accord. to different copies of the T and S,) adding, (T, S,) إِنِّى أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمُ الرمآءَ; (T, S, Mgh;) [i. e. Exchange not ye gold for silver, except it be done hand with hand, meaning, except there be no delay between the giving and receiving, take and take: verily I fear for you the practice of usury;] or he said, إِلَّا هَآءَ وَهَآءِ, meaning, except [by saying] take and give: (Az, TA in باب الالف الليّنة:) and, as some relate it, he said, انّى اخاف عليكم ↓ الإرْمَآءَ; [which means the same;] using the inf. n. (T, Mgh.) رِمَآءٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

رَمِىٌّ, applied to the male of the goat-kind, or mountain-goat, or of the gazelle, [and any male animal of the chase,] and likewise, without ة, to the female, i. q. ↓ مَرْمِىٌّ [i. e. Thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot]: but when they do not distinguish a male from a female, the word applied to the male and to the female is [↓ رَمِيَّةٌ,] with ة [added لِلنَّقْلِ, i. e. to transfer it from the category of epithets to that of substantives]: or, accord. to Lh, رَمِىٌّ and ↓ رَمِيَّةٌ are both applied, as epithets, to the female; but the former is the more approved: the pl. of the former [and of the latter also] is رَمَايَا. (M, TA.) A2: Also, (M,) accord. to As, i. q. سَقِىٌّ, i. e., (T, S,) A cloud of which the rain-drops are large, and vehement in their fall, (T, S, M, K, *) of the clouds of the hot season and of the autumn: (S:) or, (M, K,) accord. to Lth, (T,) small portions of clouds, (T, M, K,) of the [apparent] size of the hand, or somewhat larger; but the approved explanation is that given by As: (T:) and ↓ رَمْىٌ is a dial. var. thereof: (TA:) the pl. is أَرْمِيَةٌ, (T, S, M, K,) like as that of سَقِىٌّ is أَسْقِيَةٌ, (S,) and أَرْمآءٌ, (Lth, T, M, K,) [each, properly, a pl. of pauc.,] and رَمَايَا. (M, K.) رَمِيَّةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places. [As a subst.,] it signifies A thing, (S, M,) meaning (S) an animal (As, T, S, M, * Mgh, Msb) of the chase, (As, T, S,) that is thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot, (As, T, S, M, Mgh, Msb,) by its pursuer; and any beast thrown at, cast at, shot at, or shot; (As, T;) applied to the male and the female: (As, T, Mgh, Msb:) it is originally a word of the measure فَعِلَيةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولَةٌ: (Msb:) [or rather] it is made fem., (As, T,) [i. e.] it has ة, (S,) because it is made a subst., (As, T, S,) not an epithet: (As, T:) it is not مَرْمِيَّةٌ converted into رَمِيَّةٌ: (S:) or, accord. to Sb, the ة, in general, is affixed to show that the act has not yet been executed upon the object thereof; [so that the meaning is, an animal to be thrown at, cast at, shot at, or shot;] and thus ذَبِيحَةٌ is applied to “ a sheep, or goat, [to be slaughtered or sacrificed,] not yet slaughtered [or sacrificed]; ” but when the act has been executed upon it, it is [said to be] ذَبِيحٌ: (M:) the pl. is رَمِيَّاتٌ and رَمَايَا. (Msb.) One says, بِئْسَ الرَّمِيَّةُ الأَرْنَبُ, meaning Very bad is the thing of those that are [or are to be] thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot, the hare. (S, M.) b2: Also, (assumed tropical:) An impost which the governor imposes [so I render مَا يَرْمِيهِ العَامِلُ] upon his subjects. (TA.) رِمِّيَّا, (S, TA,) thus correctly written, like عِمِّيَّا; in the copies of the K like عِمِيَّا, (TA,) [and in two copies of the T written رِمِيَّا; in a copy of the M, رِمِّيَا;] i. q. تَرَامٍ: (T, S: *) or مُرَامَاةٌ: (K:) or رَمْىٌ: (M:) or it is an intensive inf. n. from الرَّمْىُ, of the measure فِعِّيلَى, like هِجِّيَرى and خِصِّيصَى: (Nh, TA:) one says, كَانَتْ بَيْنَهُمْ رِمِّيَّا (T, * S, M, * TA) ثُمَّ حَجَزَتْ بَيْنَهُمْ حِجِّيزَى, (T,) or ثُمَّ صَارُوا إِلَى حِجِّيزَى, (S, TA,) i. e. There was between them a reciprocal throwing of stones, (T, TA,) [or shooting of arrows or the like, or a great, or vehement, throwing, &c.,] then there intervened between them [an intervention, or a vehement intervention, or] a person, or persons, who withheld them, one from another, (T,) or then they withheld themselves, [or withheld themselves much,] one from another. (TA.) رَامٍ act. part. n. of 1; (Lth, T, TA;) Throwing, &c.: (TA:) [pl. رُمَاةٌ.] b2: [Hence, الرَّامِى a name of The constellation Sagittarius; the ninth of the signs of the zodiac: thus called in the present day; but more commonly, القَوْسُ.] b3: [Hence likewise,] رَامٍ also signifies (assumed tropical:) [One who assails with reproach, &c.:] (assumed tropical:) one who reproaches, or upbraids; or who gives an ill name: (KL:) [(assumed tropical:) one who accuses, or suspects, another: see مَرْمِىٌّ.]

مَرْمًى A place [of throwing, or casting, or] of shooting arrows; (KL;) the place of the butt at which arrows are shot: (TA:) [pl. مَرَامٍ.] b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) i. q. مَقْصِدٌ [meaning A place, and an object, to, or towards, which one directs his aim or course]: (TA, and Har p. 54:) pl. مَرَامٍ: (Har ibid.:) whence the trad., لَيْسَ وَرَآءَ اللّٰهِ مَرْمًى, i. e. (assumed tropical:) [There is not, beyond God,] any object (مَقْصِد) towards which to direct hopes. (TA.) مِرْمًى An instrument for throwing, or casting, or shooting: pl. مَرَامٍ. (Har p. 54.) [Hence,] مَرَامِى نِيرَانٍ [Engines for throwing fire upon the enemy]. (S and K voce حَرَّاقَةٌ.) [See also مِرْمَاةٌ.]

مَرْمَاةٌ i. q. غَلْوَةٌ [as meaning The limit of a shot or throw]. (K in art. غلو.) A2: See also the next paragraph.

(M.) When they see many مَرَامٍ in the quiver of a man, they say, وَنَبْلُ العَبْدِ أَكْثَرُهَا المَرَامِى

[And the arrows of the slave, most of them are those that are small and weak]: a prov., said to mean that the free man purchases arrows at a high price, buying the broad and long iron head, because he is a man of war and of the chase; but the slave is only a pastor, and therefore is content with what are termed مَرَامٍ, because they are cheaper if he buy them; and if he ask for them as a gift, no one gives him aught but a مِرْمَاة. (M.) [See also the last sentence of this paragraph.] b2: It is also used, tropically, as meaning (tropical:) A مَنْجَنِيق [or kind of engine for casting stones at the enemy; app. such as was called by the Romans “ onager,” or the like thereof]: because, like the مِرْمَاْة before mentioned, it is an instrument for casting, or shooting. (Mgh.) [See also مِرْمًى.] And [the pl.] مَرَامٍ also signifies (assumed tropical:) Thunderbolts; syn. صَوَاعِقُ. (Bd in xviii. 38.) b3: Also A cloven hoof (S, Mgh, K) of a sheep or goat; because it is of the things that are thrown away: (Mgh:) [or,] accord. to A 'Obeyd, (T, S,) a thing that is between the two hoofs of a sheep or goat; (T, S, M, K;) as also ↓ مَرْمَاةٌ: (A 'Obeyd, T, M, K:) thus, he says, it is explained; but I know not what is its meaning: (T, S:) its dual occurs in the following trad.: لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ دُعِىَ

إِلَى مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَجَابَ وَهُوَ لَا يُجِيبُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ; (T, S; related also, with some variations, in the M and Mgh;) in which it is said to be the dual of مِرْمَاةٌ in the former of these two senses; [i. e. If any one of you were invited to partake of two hoofs of a sheep or goat, he would obey the invitation, but he will not obey the invitation to prayer;] (S, Mgh;) or, accord. to A 'Obeyd, it is here the dual of this word in the latter of the same two senses: (T, S:) accord. to IAar, (T, TA,) or Aboo-Sa'eed, it here means the kind of arrow called مِرْمَاةٌ: (T, Mgh, TA:) but in another, and similar, trad., مرماتين is followed by أَوْعَرْقٍ [i. e. “ or a bone with some meat remaining upon it ”]. (T, Z, TA.) مَرْمِىٌّ pass. part. n. of 1; Thrown, &c.: (TA:) [thrown at, or cast at, or shot at, or shot:] see رَمِىٌّ. b2: [Hence, (assumed tropical:) Smitten, or afflicted, with some bane, or malady, &c.: (assumed tropical:) assailed with reproach, &c.: (assumed tropical:) reproached, or upbraided, or stigmatized with an ill name: (assumed tropical:) accused, or suspected.] You say اِمْرَأَةٌ مَرْمِيَّةٌ بِسُوْءٍ (assumed tropical:) A woman accused, or suspected, of evil. (TA in art. رطم.) مُرْتَمٍ A scout (T, K) لِقَوْمٍ [to a people or party]: (T, K: *) and so مُرْتَبِئٌ. (T.)

سفه

1 سَفِهَ, (S, MA, Msb,) aor. ـَ (Msb;) and سَفُهَ, [aor. ـُ (S, Msb;) inf. n. سَفَهٌ and سَفَاهَةٌ (S, MA, Msb, K *) and سَفَاهٌ, (S, MA, K, *) [all mentioned in the MA as of the former verb, and so in the TA when that verb is trans., but properly] the first is of the former verb, and the second is of the latter verb, (S, Msb,) and so is the third; (S;) He (a man, S) was, or became, such as is termed سَفِيه; (S, TA;) [i. e.] he was, or became, unwise, witless, or destitute of wisdom or understanding, or [rather] lightwitted. (MA.) b2: The phrase سَفِهَ نَفْسَةُ, [of which an instance occurs in the Kur ii. 124, and] to which غَبِنَ رَأْيَهُ and بَطِرَ عَيْضْلَرRَهُ and أَلِمَ بَطْنَهُ and وَفِقَ أَمْرَهُ and رَضْلَرRِدَ أَمْرَهُ are similar, was originally سَفِهَتْ نَفْسُ زَيْدٍ [or rather سَفِهَتْ نَفْسُهُ i. e. Himself, or his mind, was, or became, lightwitted, &c.]; but when [the dependence of] the verb became transferred [from the نفس] to the man, what followed the verb was put in the accus. case by being its objective complement, for the phrase became identical in meaning with نَفْسَهُ ↓ سَفَّهَ [he made himself, or his mind, lightwitted, &c.]: so say the Basrees and Ks; and it is allowable with them to make this accus. to precede [the verb]; like as it is allowable to say, غُلَامَهُ ضَرَب زَيْدٌ: (S, TA:) accord. to the K, the verb thus used has three forms; (TA;) you say سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ and رَأْيَهُ, (K, TA,) and حِلْمَهُ, (TA,) and سَفُهَ, and سَفَهَ, meaning حَمَلَهُ عَلَىالسَّفَهِ [which is virtually the same as سَفَّهَهُ i. e. he made himself, or his mind, lightwitted, or unwise, &c., and in like manner his judgment, or opinion, and he made his gravity, or forbearance, or the like, to become levity, or hastiness, &c.]: or he attributed سَفَه [i. e. lightwittedness, &c., to himself, or his mind, and to his judgment, or opinion]: or he destroyed it; (K, TA;) agreeably with the meaning assigned to سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ by AO: (TA:) or this means he held himself in mean, or light, estimation; (MA, and Ksh and Bd in ii. 124;) and rendered himself low, base, or contemptible: (Bd ibid.:) but Lh says that سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ, with kesr [to the ف], inf. n. سَفَهٌ and سَفَاهَةٌ and سَفَاهٌ, means حَمَلَهُ عَلَى

السَّفَهِ [or حَمَلَهَا], and is the approved form, and that some say سَفُهَ, which is rare: and accord. to J and others, (TA,) when they say سفه نَفْسَهُ, and رَأْيَهُ, they do not say it otherwise than with kesr [to the ف], because فَعُلَ is not trans.: (S, TA:) so that the three forms of the verb mentioned in the K require consideration: (TA:) accord. to Fr, when [the dependence of] the verb in the phrase سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ became transferred from the نفس to the possessor thereof, what followed the verb became an explicative, to indicate that the سَفَه [or lightwittedness, &c.,] was therein; and by rule it should be سَفِهَ زَيْدٌ نَفْسًا, for the explicative should not be otherwise than indeterminate; but it was left in its state of a prefixed noun, and put in the accus. case in the manner of an indeterminate noun as being likened thereto; [the meaning, therefore, accord. to him, is he was, or became, lightwitted, &c., as to his mind;] it is not allowable, however, in his opinion, to make this accus. to precede [the verb], because the explicative may not precede; and similar to this is the phrase ضِقْتُ بِهِ ذَرْعًا, and طِبْتُ بِهِ نَفْسًا, meaning ضَاقَ ذَرْعِىبِهِ and طَابَتْ نَفْسِى بِهِ: (S, TA:) but this saying [of Fr] is disallowed by the grammarians; for they say that explicatives are indeterminate, and that determinate nouns may not be used as indeterminate: some of the grammarians say that إِلَّامَنْ سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ in the Kur [ii. 124] means الّا من سَفِهَ فِىنَفْسِهِ [but he who is lightwitted, &c., in his mind], i. e., who becomes سَفِيه; [the prep.] فى being suppressed [and the noun therefore put in the accus. case agreeably with a general rule]: Zj holds that the approvable saying is, that it means إِلَّا مَنْ جَهِلَ نَفْسَهُ, i. e., but he who is [ignorant or silly or foolish or] unreflecting in his mind: and in like manner, سَفِهَ رَأْيَهُ means جَهِلَهُ [i. e. he was ignorant, &c., in his judgment, or opinion]; and his judgment, or opinion, was unsound, without rectitude: and سَفِهَ نَفْسَهُ signifies also he lost himself, or his own soul. (TA.) سَفِهَ الحَقَّ is likewise expl. as meaning الحَقَّ ↓ سَفَّهَ [He made the truth, or right, to be foolishness, or the like]; and Yoo held the one to be a dial. var. of the other, and the measure of the former verb to denote intensiveness; and accord. to this explanation one may say, سَفِهْتُ زَيْدًا meaning زَيْدًا ↓ سَفَّهْتُ [I pronounced Zeyd lightwitted, &c.]: or the meaning is جَهِلَ الحَقَّ [he ignored the truth, or right], and he did not see it to be the truth, or right: (TA:) or he regarded the truth, or right, as foolishness, or ignorance. (S and TA in art. غمط.) See also 2. b3: سَفِهَ عَلَيْهِ signifies جَهِلَ [i. e., when thus trans. by means of عَلَى, He feigned ignorance to him]; as also سَفُهَ, (K, TA,) and ↓ تسافه. (K.) b4: and سَفِهْتُ نَصِيبِى [and it is implied in the K that one says سَفَهْتُ نصيبى also, but only the former is authorized by the TA,] I forgot my share, or portion. (Th, K, TA.) b5: And سَفَهَ صَاحِبَهُ, aor. ـُ He overcame his companion in what is termed مُسَافَهَة [inf. n. of 3, q. v.]. (K.) You say, ↓ سَافَهَهُ فَسَفَهَهُ. (TA.) b6: سَفِهَتِ الطَّعْنَةُ, (JK, K, TA,) inf. n. سَفَهٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) The spear-wound, or the like, emitted blood which came from it quickly (JK, K, TA) and dried up (وَجَفَّ [in the TK وِخف]): (K, TA:) so in the A. (TA.) b7: سَفِهَ الضْلَرRَّرَابَ, (S, K,) inf. n. سَفَهٌ, (TA,) He drank much of the beverage, or wine, without having his thirst satisfied thereby. (S, K, TA.) See also 3. and سَفِهَ المَآءَ (tropical:) He drank the water immoderately. (TA.) b8: And سَفِهْتُ and سَفَهْتُ signify ضْلَرRُغِلْتُ, (so in the CK,) in [some of] the copies of the K ضْلَرRَغَلْتُ, but the right reading is ضْلَرRُغِلْتُ [i. e. I was occupied, or busied, or diverted from a thing]: or, accord. to the copies of the K, تَضْلَرRَغَّلْتُ; but correctly, or ضْلَرRَغَلْتُ [i. e. I occupied, or busied, or diverted from a thing]. (TA.) 2 سَفَّهَ see 5. b2: [Hence,] سِفِهِهُ, inf. n. تَسْفِيهٌ, (S, Msb, K,) signifies جَعَلَهُ سَفِيهًا [i. e. He, or it, made him to be, or he pronounced him to be, lightwitted, &c.]; as also ↓ سَفِهَهُ; (K, TA;) on the authority of Akh and Yoo: (TA:) or he attributed to him what is termed سَفَه [i. e. lightwittedness, &c.]: (S, Msb:) or he said to him that he was such as is termed سَفِيه. Msb.) and سفّه الجَهْلُ حِلْمَهُ Ignorance made him light, inconstant, unsteady, irresolute, or fickle; syn. أَطَاضْلَرRَهُ and أَخَفَّهُ. (TA.) See also 1, in three places.3 سافههُ, (S, MA, K,) inf. n. مُسَافَهَةٌ, (S, KL,) He acted [in a lightwitted manner,] foolishly, or ignorantly, with him; (MA, KL;) showed lightness, levity, weakness of mind, and lack of حِلْم [or gravity, &c.], with him. (KL.) You say, سَافَهَهُ فَسَفَهَهُ: see 1, near the end of the paragraph. [سافهه in this instance may mean as above, or may have the meaning here next following.] b2: He reviled him; or he reviled him, being reviled by him; syn. ضْلَرRَاتَمَهُ: whence the prov., سَفِيهٌ لَمْ

↓ يَجِدْ مُسَافِهًا [A lightwitted person found not a reviler, or mutual reviler]; (K, TA;) mentioned in the S. (TA.) [See also 5.] b3: سافه الدَّنَّ, (S, K,) or الوَطْبَ, (S,) (assumed tropical:) He sat with (قَاعَدَ) the دنّ [or wine-jar], (S, K,) or the وطب [or milk-skin], (S,) and drank from it while after while. (S, K.) And سافه الضْلَرRَّرَابَ (tropical:) He exceeded the due bounds in respect of the beverage, or wine, drinking it without measure; (K, TA;) as also ↓ سَفِهَهُ. (K.) And سَافَهْتُ المَآءَ (tropical:) I drank the water immoderately, (Lh, TA,) or without measure. (A, TA.) [See also 1, near the end of the paragraph.] b4: And سَافَهَتِ النَّاقَةُ الطَّرِيقَ (tropical:) The she-camel kept to the road, or way, (A, K, TA,) or took to it, (A, TA,) with a vehement pace: (A, K, TA:) or was light, or agile, in her pace, or going. (TA.) 4 أَسْفَهْتُهُ I found him to be سَفِيه [i. e. lightwitted, &c.]. (TA. [There said to be tropical; but I see not why.]) b2: أَسْفَهَكَ اللّٰه الضْلَرRَّرَابَ (assumed tropical:) May God make thee to drink of the beverage, or wine, without having thy thirst satisfied thereby: or أَسْفَهَهُ اللّٰهُ God made him, or may God make him, to drink without having his thirst satisfied: (S, accord. to different copies:) or اسفه اللّٰهُ فُلَانَّا المَآءَ God made, or may God make, such a one to drink much water. (TA.) 5 تسفّهت الرِّيَاحُ The winds became in a state of commotion. (TA.) b2: تسفّهت الرِّيحُ الضْلَرRَّجَرَ, (S,) or الغُصُونَ, (K, TA,) and الرِّيحُ ↓ سَفَّهَتِ الغُصُونَ, (Ham p. 359,) The wind made the trees, (S,) or the branches, (K,) to bend, or incline: (S, K:) and put the branches in motion: (K, and Ham ubi suprà:) or ruffled, and put in motion, the branches. (TA. [There said to be tropical: but see what is said of the primary signification of سَفَهٌ, below.]) b3: [Hence,] it is said in a prov., فُرَارَةٌ تَسَفَّهَتْ قَرَارَةً A lamb, or kid, made a sheep, or goat, to incline [to silly behaviour]: applied to the old whom the young incites to lightwittedness (السَّفَه) and levity. (Meyd. [See also a similar prov. in Freytag's Arab. Prov., ii. 253.]) b4: تسفّههُ عَنْ مَالِهِ He deluded him, or beguiled him, of his property. (S, K.) b5: تسفّه عَلَيْهِ He acted with سَفَاهَة [i. e. lightwittedness, &c.], or foolishly, towards him. (MA.) b6: And تَسَفَّهْتُ عَلَيْهِ signifies أَسْمَعْتُهُ [as meaning I reviled him]. (S.) [See also 3.]6 تسافه عَلَيْهِ: see 1, in the last quarter of the paragraph. b2: [And تسافهوا They behaved in a lightwitted, foolish, or ignorant, manner, one with another. See also 3, which has a similar meaning. b3: And They reviled one another: as seems to be indicated in the TA. See also Har p. 522: and see, again, 3.] b4: تَسَافَهُ أَضْلَرRْدَاقُهَا, in a verse of Khalaf Ibn-Is-hák El-Bahránee, [describing swift camels,] means Their sides of the mouth casting forth their foam, one at another: like the saying of El-Jarmee, تَسَافَهُ أَضْلَرRْدَاقُهَا بِاللُّغَامِ [Their sides of the mouth casting forth the foam, one at another]. (TA. [تسافه, there written without any syll. signs, is app. thus, (for تَتَسَافَهُ,) not تُسَافِهُ.]) سَفَهٌ, (S, TA,) as also ↓ سَفَاهَةٌ and ↓ سَفَاهٌ, (TA,) [all mentioned as inf. ns. in the first paragraph of this art.,] primarily signifies خِفَّةٌ [in its proper sense of Lightness], and motion, commotion, or agitation. (S, TA.) b2: And hence (S, TA) the first, (S, K, TA,) like each of the others, (K, TA,) signifies [generally Lightwittedness, or the like;] the contr. of حِلْمٌ; (S, K, TA;) [i. e.] خِفَّةٌ [as meaning lightness or levity, inconstancy, unsteadiness, irresoluteness; or lightness or levity, &c., and hastiness; for, as is said in the TA in art. رجح, the contr. of حِلْمٌ is described by the terms خِفَّةٌ and عَجَلٌ, like as حِلْمٌ is described by the term ثِقَلٌ]; and slenderness, shallowness, or weakness, of judgment; qualities which deficiency of intellect, or understanding, necessarily involves: (Bd in ii. 12, in explanation of سَفَهٌ:) or خِفَّةُ حِلْمٍ

[i. e. slightness of gravity or staidness or sedateness or calmness &c.]: or جَهْلٌ [i. e. ignorance, or silliness or foolishness]: (K, TA:) all of which explanations are nearly alike: (TA:) or سَفَهٌ is a deficiency in intellect or understanding: (Msb:) or a lightness, or levity, accidental to a man, arising from joy or anger, inducing him to act unreasonably and unlawfully. (KT.) سَفَاهٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

سَفيِهٌ [Having the quality termed سَفَهٌ; i. e., accord. to the explanation of the primary signification of the latter, above, Light; and in a state of motion, commotion, or agitation:] applied to a camel's nose-rein, (S, K,) light: (S:) or quivering; (K, TA;) because of the she-camel's shaking it, and contending in pulling it. (TA: but there said to be, when thus applied, tropical.) Dhu-rRummeh says, عَلَى ظَهْرِ مِقْلَاتٍ سَفِيهٍ جَدِيلُهَا i. e. [Upon the back of a she-camel that had brought forth but once and not conceived after,] whose nose-rein was light. (S. In the TA, زِمَامُهَا is here put in the place of جَدِيلُهَا.) and one says also نَاقَةٌ سَفِيهَةُ الزِمَامِ, (K, TA,) meaning [A she-camel whose nose-rein is light, or quivering: or] light, or agile, in pace or going. (TA: in which this, also, is said to be tropical.) b2: Also Lightwitted; light of intellect or understanding; (TA;) deficient in intellect or understanding; (Msb;) ignorant; (Mujáhid, K, TA;) weak; foolish, stupid, unsound in intellect or understanding, dull therein, or having little, or no, intellect, or understanding; (Mujáhid, TA;) and ↓ سَافِهٌ, also, [which is syn. with سَفِيهٌ in all the senses mentioned above,] is expl. by IAar as having this last meaning of foolish, stupid, &c.: (TA:) the fem. is سَفِيهَةٌ: (Msb, K:) and the pl. of the masc., (K,) or of the masc. and fem., (Msb, TA,) is سُفَهَآءُ, (Msb, K, TA,) and of both, سِفَاهٌ, and of the fem., سَفِيهَاتٌ also and سَفَائِهُ and سُفَّهٌ. (K, TA.) In the Kur ii. 282, سَفِيهًا means, accord. to Ibn-'Arafeh, Ignorant of the ordinances, or statutes; one who does not dictate well, and knows not what dictation is; for he who is ignorant in all his circumstances may not deal with another upon credit: accord. to ISd, ignorant or صَغِير [meaning under the age of puberty]; not ignorant of dictating, as Lh asserts it to mean, because it is added, “or not able to dictate, himself: ” this, says Er-Rághib, denotes سَفَه in respect of worldly matters: in the Kur lxxii. 4, سَفِيهُنَا denotes سَفَه in religion. (TA.) In the Kur iv. 4, the pl. السُّفَهَآء is said to mean Women, and young children; because they are ignorant of the proper object of expense: and I'Ab is related to have said that women are termed السُّفَّهُ and السُّفَهَآءُ: (Lh, TA:) Az, also, says that a woman is termed سَفِيهَةٌ because of the weakness of her intellect, and because she does not manage well her property; and in like manner are termed children as long as they are not known to be characterized by maturity of intellect, and rectitude of actions, and good management of affairs. (TA.) b3: ثَوْبٌ سَفِيهٌ (tropical:) A garment, or piece of cloth, badly woven; thin, flimsy, unsubstantial, or scanty in the yarn. (K, * TA.) سَفَاهَةٌ: see سَفَهٌ.

سَافِهٌ: see سَفيهٌ. b2: Also, applied to a man, (assumed tropical:) Vehemently thirsty: and so سَاهِفٌ. (Az, TA.) وَادٍ مُسْفَهٌ (tropical:) A valley filled [with water]: (K, TA:) as though it exceeded the due bounds, and became such as is termed سَفِيه: imagined to be from أسْفَهْتُهُ signifying “ I found him to be سَفِيه. ” (TA.) طَعَامٌ مَسْفَهَةٌ, (K, TA, in the CK [erroneously]

مُسْفِهٌ,) as also مَسْهَفَةٌ, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) Food that incites [in the CK يُتْعِبُ is erroneously put for يَبْعَتُ] to the drinking of much water. (IAar, * K, TA.) مُسَافِهٌ act. part. n. of 3, q. v.
