ى1 عَمِىَ, [aor. ـْ inf. n. عَمًى, He was, or became, blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes; (Msb, K, * TA;) as also ↓ اِعْمَاىَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعْمِيَآءٌ; (K;) [said by SM to be like اِرْعَوَى, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِرْعِوَآءٌ; as though اِعْمَاىَ were originally اِعْمَىَّ, like as اِرْعَوَى is originally اِرْعَوَّ, both being of the measure اِفْعلَّ; but he adds, correctly, that,] accord. to Sgh, اِعْمَاىَ is originally like اِدْهَامَمَ, which becomes اِدْهَامَّ, [i. e. it is originally اِعْمَايَىَ,] but the latter ى is changed into ا because of the fet-hah of the former, so that it becomes اِعْمَايَا, and the two, thus differing, do not easily admit of idghám (TA;) and sometimes the ى of اِعْمَاىَ is musheddedeh, (Sgh, K, TA,) so that it becomes [↓ اِعْمَاىَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِعمِيَّآءٌ,] like اِدْهَامَّ, aor. ـْ inf. n. اِدْهِيمَامٌ; but this is by a straining of a point, and not in use: (Sgh, TA:) and ↓ تعمّى, likewise, signifies the same, (K, TA,) i. e., the same as عَمِىَ. (TA.) And you say also, عَمِيَتْ عَيْنَاهُ His two eyes were, or became, blind. (TA.) b2: Hence عَمًى is metaphorically used in relation to the mind, as meaning (tropical:) An erring; the connection between the two meanings being the not finding, or not taking, the right way: (Msb:) or the being blind in respect of the mind: and in this sense, the verb is as above, with the exception of the measure اِفعَالَّ [and the abbreviated form of this]. (K, * TA. [اَفْعَالٍ in the CK in this passage is a mistranscription, for افْعَالَّ.]) You say, عَمِىَ عَنْ رُشْدِهِ, and حُجَّتِهِ, meaning لَمْ يَهْتَدِ (assumed tropical:) [He did not, or could not, become guided to his right course, and his plea or the like; i. e. he was, or became, blind thereto]. (TA.) And عَمِىَ عَنْ حَقِّهِ (assumed tropical:) [He was, or became, blind to his right, or due], like عَشِىَ عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) b3: One says also عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ الخَبَرُ (tropical:) The information was, or became, unapparent, obscure, or covert, to him. (Mgh, Msb. *) And عَمِىَ عَلَيْهِ طَرِيقُهُ, (TA,) and الأَمْرُ, (S, TA,) and الشِّعْرُ, and الكَلَامُ, (Har p. 190,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) [His way, or road, and the affair, and the poetry, or verse, and the speech, or saying,] was, or became, obscure, or dubious, to him; (S, TA, and Har ubi suprá) and so ↓ عُمِّىَ; (TA;) and ↓ تعمّى. (Har ubi suprá.) Hence, accord. to different readings, in the Kur [xxviii. 66], فَعَمِيَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الْأَنْبَآءُ and ↓ فَعُمِّيَتْ (assumed tropical:) [And the pleas shall be obscure, or dubious, to them]. (S, TA.) b4: and عَمِيتُ إِلَى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I betook myself to such a thing, not desiring any other; as also عَطِشْتُ. (TA. [Accord. to the TA, the inf. ns. of these two verbs, thus used, are عميان and عطشان: but they are correctly عَمًى and عَطَشٌ.]) A2: عَمَى

المَوْجُ, aor. ـْ (S, K,) inf. n. عَمْىٌ, (S,) The waves cast the particles of rubbish, or the like, (S, K, TA,) driving them to their upper, or uppermost, parts, (TA,) and the foam. (S, TA.) b2: And عَمَى بِلُغَامِهِ, (K, TA,) aor. ـْ (TA,) He (a camel) brayed, and cast the foam of his mouth upon his head, or the upper part of his head, or anywhere: (K, TA:) mentioned by ISd. (TA.) b3: And [hence] عَمَانِى بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He cast upon me a suspicion of such a thing. (TA.) b4: عَمَى, aor. ـْ said of water, (K, TA,) and of other things, (TA,) also signifies It flowed; (K, TA;) and so هَمَى. (TA.) b5: And عمى النَّبْتُ [app. عَمَى] and ↓ اعتمى and اِعْتَمَّ are three syn. dial. vars., (TA in this art.,) meaning (assumed tropical:) The plant, or herbage, became of its full height, and blossomed; (S, K, TA, in explanation of the last, in art. عم;) and became luxuriant, or abundant and dense. (TA in that art.) 2 عمّاهُ, inf. n. تَعْمِيَةٌ, He rendered him blind, of both eyes: (K, TA:) and (TA) so ↓ اعماهُ, (S, Msb, TA,) said of God, (S, TA,) or of a man. (Msb.) Hence the saying of Sá'ideh Ibn-Jueiyeh, وَعَمَّى عَلَيْهِ المَوْتُ بَابَىْ طَرِيقِهِ [And death rendered blind, to him, the two doors of his way]; بابى طريقه meaning his two eyes. (TA.) b2: And [hence] عَمَّيْتُ الخَبَرَ (assumed tropical:) I made the information unapparent, obscure, or covert. (Msb.) And عمّى مَعْنَى البَيْتِ, inf. n. as above, (S, K,) (assumed tropical:) He made the meaning of the verse unapparent, obscure, or covert. (K.) And عمّى مُرَادَهُ (assumed tropical:) He made his meaning enigmatical, or obscure, in his speech, or language. (S, A, K, in art. لغز.) and عمّى عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ شَيْئًا (assumed tropical:) He made a thing obscure, or dubious, to a man. (TA.) See also 1, latter half, in two places. [And see مُعَمَّى.]4 اعماهُ: see 2, first sentence. b2: Also He found him to be blind [app. meaning properly, and also (assumed tropical:) in mind]. (K, TA.) b3: مَا أَعْمَاهُ meansonly مَا أَعْمَى قَلْبَهُ (assumed tropical:) [How blind is his mind!]: (S, K:) for the verb of wonder is not formed from that which is not significant of increase. (S.) 5 تعمّى [in its proper sense, and also in a tropical sense]: see 1, in two places.6 تعامى He feigned himself أَعْمَى (S, K, TA) [i. e. blind], in respect of the eyes [as is implied in the S], b2: and also (assumed tropical:) in respect of the mind [as is implied in the K]. (TA.) You say, تعامى عَنْ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) He feigned himself ignorant [of such a thing], as though he did not see it; like تَعَاشَى

عَنْهُ. (TA in art. عشو.) 8 اِعْتَمَاهُ He chose it, selected it, or preferred it; syn. اِخْتَارَهُ; (S, K, TA;) i. e., a thing; (S;) formed by transposition from اِعْتَامَهُ [mentioned in art. عيم]. (S, TA.) b2: And i. q. قَصَدَهُ [i. e. He tended, betook himself, or directed himself or his course or aim, to, or towards, him, or it; &c.]; (K, TA;) like اِعْتَامَهُ. (TA in art. عيم.) A2: See also 1, last sentence.11 اِعْمَاىَّ, and its abbreviated form اِعْمَاىَ: see 1, first quarter.

صَكَّةَ عُمْىٍ: see صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ.

عَمَا in the phrase عَمَا وَاللّٰهِ, i. q. أَمَا [expl. in art. اما]: (K, TA:) as also غَمَا, (K in art. غمى,) and هَمَا. (TA.) عَمًى [sometimes written عَمًا] inf. n. of عَمِىَ [q. v.]. (S, * Msb, K.) [Hence the saying, لَا شَلَلًا وَلَا عَمًى: see 1 in art. شل. Hence also one says, رَكِبَ أَمْرًا عَلَى العَمَى, meaning He ventured upon, or embarked in, an affair blindly; like عَلَى

غَيْرِ بَصِيرَةِ.]

A2: See also أَعْمَآءٌ.

A3: And see عَمَآءٌ, in two places.

A4: Also Stature: and height. (K.) One says, مَا أَحْسَنَ عَمَى هٰذَا الرَّجُلِ i. e. [How goodly is] the height, or the stature, of this man! (TA.) A5: And Dust; syn. غُبَارٌ. (K.) A6: In the saying of a rájiz, describing a skin of milk, because of its whiteness, يَحْسَبُهُ الجَاهِلُ مَا كَانَ عَمَا شَيْخًا عَلَى كُرْسِيِّةِ مُعَمَّمَا [The ignorant would think it, while there was remoteness, to be an old man upon his chair, turbaned,] the meaning is looking at it from afar; for العَمَا in this case signifies remoteness. (TA.) عَمٍ, originally عَمِىٌ: see أَعْمَى, in four places.

عَمْيَةٌ, a contraction of عَمِيَةٌ fem. of عَمٍ: see أَعْمَى.

عِمْيَةٌ [in the CK erroneously عَمْيَة] a subst. from اِعْتَمَاهُ in the sense of اِخْتَارَهُ [signifying A thing chosen, selected, or preferred; like خِيرَةٌ, a subst. from اِخْتَارَهُ]. (K, TA.) عَمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed عَمٍ

[q. v. voce أَعْمَى]. (S, TA.) عَمَآءٌ, (S, K, TA,) in some of the copies of the K ↓ عَمًى, and by some thus related in a trad. mentioned in what follows, (TA,) Clouds: or, accord. to Az, [clouds] resembling smoke, surmounting the heads of mountains: (S, Msb:) or lofty clouds: or [in the CK “ and ”] dense: (K, TA:) or dense [clouds such as are termed] غَيْم: (TA:) or raining clouds: or thin clouds: or black: or white: or such as have poured forth their water; (K, TA;) but have not become dissundered like mountains: and ↓ عَمَآءَةٌ [is the n. un., and] signifies a dense, covering, cloud; as also ↓ عَمَايَةٌ: or a dense portion of cloud: but some disallow this, and make عَمَآءٌ to be [only] a coll. n. (TA.) It is related in a trad. that, in reply to the question “ Where was our Lord (meaning the عَرْش [q. v.] of our Lord) before He created his creatures? ” it was said, كَانَ فِى عَمَآءٍ تَحْتَهُ هَوَآءٌ وَفَوْقَهُ هَوَآءٌ [He (i. e. his عَرْش) was in clouds, or lofty clouds, &c., beneath which was a vacuity, and above which was a vacuity]: or, accord. to one relation, ↓ كَانَ فِى عَمًى [meaning He was in a vacuity] i. e. there was not with Him anything: or, as some say, it means anything that the intellectual faculties cannot perceive, and to the definition of which the describer cannot attain. (TA.) b2: See also عَمَآءَةٌ.

أَتَيْتُهُ صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ, (S,) or لَقِيتهُ صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ, and ↓ عُمْىٍ, which occurs in poetry, (K, TA,) in a case in which the metre requires it, a verse of Ru-beh, who uses it for عَمَىٍّ, (TA, [which shows, by citing that verse, that عَمًى, the reading in the CK, is wrong,]) and ↓ أَعْمَى, (K,) i. e. [I came to him, or I met him,] in the time of midday when the heat was vehement, (S,) or in the most vehement heat of midday in summer (K, and Lh and O and TA in art. صك) when the heat almost blinded by its vehemence; (Lh and O and TA in that art.;) a time in which the divinelyappointed prayer [of midday] is forbidden: it is said only in the hot season; because when a man goes forth at that time, he cannot fill his eyes with the light of the sun; or, as ISd says, because the gazelle seeks the covert when the heat is vehement, and his eye becomes weak by reason of the whiteness of the sun, and the bright shining thereof, and he is dazzled, so that he knocks against his covert, not seeing it: (TA:) عُمَىّ being an abbreviated dim. of أَعْمَى: (S:) or it is a name for the heat, (K, TA,) itself: (TA:) or the name of a certain man, (K, TA,) of [the tribe of] 'Adwán, who used to press forward with the pilgrims when the heat was vehement, as is related in the Nh, or (TA) who used to decide cases judicially in, or concerning, the pilgrimage, and he came among a company journeying upon their camels, (K, TA,) performing the religious visit called عُمْرَة, (TA,) and they alighted at a station in a hot day, whereupon he said, “Upon whomsoever shall come this hour, or time, of tomorrow while he is حَرَام [i. e. in the condition of one performing the acts of the حَجّ or of the عُمْرَة], (K, TA,) not having accomplished his عُمْرَة, (TA,) he shall remain حَرَام until [this time] next year: ” and they immediately sprang up, (K, TA,) hastening, (TA,) so that they arrived at the House [of God, at Mekkeh, in the time required,] from a distance of a journey of two nights, using exertion; (K, TA;) and this saying became a prov., as is related in the M: (TA:) or it was the name of a certain man, (S, K, TA,) of the Amalekites, (S, TA,) who made a sudden attack upon a people, and exterminated them; (S, K, TA;) and the time became called in relation to him. (S, TA.) [See also art. صك.]

عَمَآءَةٌ, (K, TA,) or ↓ عَمَآءٌ, (CK, and so in my MS. copy of the K,) and ↓ عَمَايَةٌ, and ↓ عَمِيَّةٌ, and ↓ عُمِيَّةٌ, (assumed tropical:) Error: and (assumed tropical:) persistence; or con-tention, or litigation, or wrangling; or persistence in contention or litigation or wrangling; syn. لَجَاجٌ; (K, TA;) in that which is false or vain or futile: (TA:) [or the last but one, or the last, signifies (assumed tropical:) ignorance; for] ↓ فِيهِمْ عَمِيَّتُهُمْ or ↓ عُمِيَّتُهُمْ (accord. to different copies of the S) means In them is their ignorance. (S.) [See also عِمِّيَّةٌ, and عِمِّيَّا.] b2: For the first (عَمَآءَةٌ), see also عَمَآءٌ.

عَمَايَةٌ A remaining portion of the darkness of night. (TA.) b2: [And Dimness of the eyes from tears: so, accord. to Freytag, in the Deewán of the Hudhalees.] b3: See also عَمَآءٌ. b4: And see عَمَآءَةٌ.

عَمِيَّةٌ: see عَمَآءَةٌ, in two places. b2: Also i. q. دعوة عميأء [i. e., app., ↓ دِعْوَةٌ عَمْيَآءُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) An obscure claim to relationship]. (TA.) عُمِيَّةٌ: see عَمَآءَةٌ, in two places.

عَمَّا is a compound of عَنْ and مَا.

تَرَكْنَاهُمْ عُمَّى, (S, K,) or تركناهم فى عُمَّى, (so in some copies of the S, [thus in one of my copies,]) (assumed tropical:) We left them at the point of death. (S, K.) b2: See also أَعْمَآءُ.

عِمِّيَّا, of the measure فِعِّيلَى, i. q. فِتْنَةٌ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) Trial, or probation; punishment; slaughter; civil war; conflict and faction, or sedition; &c.]. (Mz, 40th نوع.) [See also the next paragraph.]

b2: [In the TA, عمياء, evidently a mistranscription for عِمِّيَّا, is expl. as having the second of the meanings assigned above to عَمَآءَةٌ &c., i. e. (assumed tropical:) Persistence; or contention, &c.] b3: قَتِيلُ عِمِّيَّا, (Mz ubi suprà, and K,) [in the CK, erroneously, عَمِيَّا, and in the TA قُتِلَ عِمِّيَّا,] the latter word of the measure فِعِّيلَى, (Mz, TA,) like رِمِّيَّا, (K, TA, [in the CK like رَمِيَّا,]) and خِصِّيصَى, (TA,) means (assumed tropical:) A slain person whose slayer is not known. (Mz, K, TA.) The predicament of him who has been so slain is like that of the slain unintentionally; the bloodwit being obligatory in his case [on his عَاقِلَة, q. v. voce عَاقِلٌ]. (TA.) عِمِّيَّةٌ and عُمِّيَّةٌ, (K, TA,) of the measure فُعِّيلَةٌ from العَمَى, (TA,) Pride; or self-magnification: or error; or deviation from that which is right. (K, TA. [See also عَمَآءَةٌ, and عِمِّيَّا.]) Hence, in a trad., مَنْ قُتِلَ تَحْتَ رَايَةِ عُِمِّيَّةٍ [Whoso has been slain under a banner of pride, &c.,] i. e. in فِتْنَة [meaning conflict and faction, or the like], or error, as in the fighting in the case of partisanship, and of erroneous opinions. (TA.) عَامٍ One who does not see his road, or way. (TA.) b2: عَامِيَةٌ, applied to a land (أَرْضٌ): see أَعْمَى. b3: Also, [thus applied,] Of which the traces are becoming [or become] effaced, or obliterated. (TA.) b4: See also أَعْمَآءٌ, in three places. b5: Applied to a woman, (TA,) عَامِيَةٌ signifies بَكَّآءَةٌ, (K, TA,) [a strange epithet,] meaning (assumed tropical:) Having very little milk. (TK.) A2: Applied to a man, عَامٍ signifies also رَامٍ [i. e. Casting, &c.]. (TA.) أَعْمَى (S, Msb, K) and ↓ عَمٍ (K [but see what follows]) Blind, (S, Msb, K,) of both eyes: (Msb, K, * TA:) fem. of the former عَمْيَآءُ: (Msb, K, TA:) and pl. [masc.] عُمْىٌ (S, Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمْيَانٌ (Msb, K, TA, but not in the CK) and عُمَاةٌ, as though this last were pl. of عَامٍ; (K, TA, but not in the CK;) and the dual of its fem. is عَمْيَاوَانِ; and its pl. is عَمْيَاوَاتٌ: (TA:) the fem. of ↓ عَمٍ is عَمِيَةٌ, (S, K, TA, [in the CK عَمِيَّةٌ, which is a mistranscription, for it is]) of the measure فَعِلَةٌ, (S,) like فَرِحَةٌ, (TA,) and ↓ عَمْيَةٌ, (K, TA, but not in the CK,) which is [a contraction] like فَخْذٌ for فَخِذٌ: (TA:) and the pl. masc. is عَمُونَ. (S, TA.) b2: And [hence,] (assumed tropical:) Blind in respect of the mind: (K, TA:) [but more commonly] one says, ↓ هُوَ عَمٍ as meaning (tropical:) He is erring, or one who errs; and أَعْمَى القَلْبِ [meaning the same, or blind in respect of the mind]: (Msb:) or القَلْبِ ↓ رَجُلٌ عَمِى i. e. (assumed tropical:) An ignorant man [or a man blind in respect of the mind]; and اِمْرَأَةٌ عَمِيَةٌ عَنِ الصَّوَابِ [a woman ignorant of, or blind to, that which is right], and عَمِيَةُ القَلْبِ [like عَمِى القَلْبِ as applied to a man]. (S.) In the saying in the Kur [xvii. 74], وَمَنْ كَانَ فِى هٰذِهِ فَهُوَ فِى الْآخِرَةِ أَعْمَى, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former [اعمى] is a part. n. and the second is like it; (TA;) and the meaning is, And whoso is in this state of existence blind in respect of the mind, not seeing his right course, he will be in the other blind with respect to the way of safety: (Bd:) or, as some say, the second is what is termed أَفْعَلُ تَفْضِيلٍ, the complement of which is expressed by means of مِنْ, [meaning more blind &c.,] and therefore AA and Yaakoob did not pronounce it with الإِمَالَة, as not being like the first, (Bd, TA, *) which is subject to الامالة because its ا [written ى] becomes [really]

ى in the dual: but Hamzeh and Ks and Aboo-Bekr pronounced both with الامالة. (Bd.) b3: الأَعْمَيَانِ means (assumed tropical:) The torrent and the fire of a burning house or the like; (K, TA;) because of the perplexity that befalls him whom they befall; or because, when they occur, they spare not a place, nor avoid anything; like the أَعْمَى [or blind], who knows not where he is travelling, so that he goes whither his leg conveys him: (TA:) or the torrent and the night: (K:) or the torrent, (S, K) or the tumultuous torrent, (TA,) and the camel excited by lust. (S, K, TA.) b4: And الأَمْرُ الأَعْمَى (assumed tropical:) The case [such as that] of partisanship (العَصَبِيَّة) whereof the manner of proceeding is not distinguishable. (TA.) b5: And أَرْضٌ عَمْيَآءُ and ↓ عَامِيَةٌ, and مَكَانٌ أَعْمَى, (assumed tropical:) A land, and a place, in which one will not, or cannot, be directed to his right course. (TA.) b6: See also صَكَّةَ عُمَىٍّ: b7: and see عَمِيَّةٌ.

أَعْمَآءٌ Tracts of land in which is no sign of the way, (S, K,) nor any habitation or cultivation, (K,) or nor any trace of habitation or cultivation; (S;) and ↓ مَعَامٍ signifies the same; (S, K;) this latter being a pl. of which the sing., said by ISd to be unknown to him, should by rule be معمية [app. مُعْمِيَةٌ], but it is ↓ عُمَّى, deviating from rule; (TA;) or it means مَجَاهِلُ, and its sing. is معماة [i. e. ↓ مَعْمَاةٌ] signifying a place of erring, or wandering from the right way: (Har p. 85:) in the K, أَعْمَآءٌ is also expl. as signifying جُهَّالٌ [pl. of جَاهِلٌ], and is said to be [in this sense] pl. of أَعْمَى: but this is a double mistake, for it signifies مَجَاهِلُ, [like as مَعَامٍ is said to do above,] and its sing. is عمى [app. ↓ عَمًى]. (TA.) In the phrase ↓ أَعْمَآءُ عَامِيَةٌ, [in the CK, erroneously, عامِيَّةٌ,] the latter word is added to give intensiveness to the meaning; i. e., it signifies [Tracts in which is no sign of the way, &c.,] in the utmost degree obscure or dubious: thus it is in the following verse: (TA:) Ru-beh says, أَعْمَاؤُهُ ↓ وَبَلَدٍ عَامِيَةٍ

كَأَنَّ لَوْنَ أَرْضِهِ سَمَاؤُهُ [And many a desert, or waterless desert, whereof the tracts in which is no sign of the way are in the utmost degree obscure or dubious, as though the colour of its ground were like that of its sky]: (S, TA:) he means وَرُبَّ بَلَدٍ. (S.) b2: Also Tall; applied to men: (IAar, K:) pl. of ↓ عَامٍ, like as أَنْصَارٌ is of نَاصِرٌ. (IAar, TA.) أَعْمَوِىٌّ Of, or relating to, such as is termed أَعْمَى [q. v.]. (S, TA.) مَعْمَاةٌ; and the pl. مَعَامٍ: see أَعْمَآءٌ.

مُعَمًّى (assumed tropical:) A verse [or a saying] of which the meaning is made unapparent, obscure, or covert. (S, TA.) المُعْتَمِى The lion. (K.)

شر

ى1 شَرَاهُ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـِ (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. شِرًى (S, Mgh, Msb, TA) and شِرَآءٌ, (S, * Mgh, Msb, * TA,) the former inf. n. the more in repute, (Msb, TA,) and this is of the dial. of Nejd, the latter being of the dial. of El-Hijáz, or the latter may be said to be with medd for the purpose of assimilating it to a preceding word, accord. to El-Munádee, or it may be regarded as an inf. n. of شَارَاهُ, (TA,) i. q. بَاعَهُ [in the sense in which this is generally used, i. e. He sold it]; (S, Mgh, K;) he gave it for a price: (Msb:) and i. q. ↓ اِشْتَرَاهُ [in the sense in which this is generally used, i. e. he bought it]; (S, Mgh;) i. e. شَرَاهُ signifies also he took it, or acquired it, for a price: (Msb:) or this and ↓ اشتراه both signify بَاعَهُ [as meaning he sold it]; (T, * K, TA;) but the former is more used than the latter in this sense: (T, TA:) and both signify also [he bought it; i. e.] he possessed it by sale; (K;) which is the more usual meaning of the latter: (T, TA:) thus the former has two contr. meanings, (S, Msb, K,) and the latter also: (K:) for the two persons selling and buying sell and buy the price and the thing upon which the price is put; so that each of the things given in exchange is sold in one point of view and bought in another. (Msb, TA.) It is said in the Kur [ii. 203], وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يَشْرِى

نَفْسَهُ ابْتِغَآءَ مَرْضَاةِ اللّٰهِ i. e. [And of men is he] who sells [himself in the endeavour to obtain the approval of God]. (S, * TA.) And in the same, [xii. 20], وَشَرَوْهُ بِثَمَنٍ بَخْسٍ i. e. And they sold him [for a deficient, or an insufficient, price]. (S, TA.) And in the same [ii. 15], أُولَائِكَ الَّذِينَ الضَّلَالَةَ بِالْهُدَى ↓ اشْتَرَوُا, originally اشْتَرَيُوا, (S,) [lit. Those are they who have purchased error with right direction,] meaning, (tropical:) who have taken الضلالة in exchange for الهدى: (Ksh, Bd, Jel:) or (tropical:) who have preferred الضلالة to الهدى: (Ksh, Bd:) [for] of any one who relinquishes a thing and lays hold upon another thing, one says اشتراه; (K, TA;) which is thus tropically used [as meaning (tropical:) he took it in exchange بِغَيْرِهِ by giving up another thing]; (TA;) and hence this saying in the Kur-án. (K, TA.) b2: [Hence,] شَرَى بِنَفْسِهِ عَنِ القَوْمِ (tropical:) He advanced before the people, or party, (K, TA,) to their enemy, (TA,) and fought in defence of them: or (tropical:) he advanced to the Sultán, and spoke for the people: (K, TA:) [as though he sold himself for them; the ب in بنفسه being app. redundant:] or, as in the Tekmileh, شَرَى بِنَفْسِهِ إِلَى القَوْمِ (tropical:) he advanced to the people, or party, and fought them. (TA.) b3: And شَرَى

[&c.]; and the like is said in the Nh, with this addition, that شُرَاةٌ is the pl. of شَارٍ; i. e., it is from شَرَى, aor. ـْ or it may be from المُشَارَاةُ meaning المُلَاجَّةُ: moreover, the part. n. of شَرِىَ is شَرٍ; and this has not شُرَاةٌ for its pl.

(TA.) b2: And أَفْعَمْتُ البَيْتَ بِرِيحِ العُودِ [I filled the house, or chamber, or tent, with the odour of aloes-wood]. (S.) It is said in a trad., لَوْ أَنْ امْرَأَةً مِنَ الحُورِ العِينَ أَشْرَفَــتْ لَأَفْعَمَتْ مَا َبيْنَ السَّمَآءِ وَالأَرْضِ رِيحَ المِسْكِ i. e. [If a woman (or Paradise) of those having eyes like the eyes of gazelles rose into view,] she would fill [the space between the heaven and the earth with the odour of musk]: thus related: and also لَأَفْغَمَتْ, and لَفَغَمَتْ: but Az says that the right relation is لافعمت, with ع. (TA in this art. and in art. فغم.) And one says, افعم المِسْكُ البَيْتَ The musk filled with its odour, (S,) or perfumed, (K,) [the house, or chamber, or tent.] b3: and افعم الرَّجُلَ He filled the man with anger; (S, TA;) mentioned by Az on the authority of Aboo-Turáb: (TA:) or he angered him: or he filled his nose with odour, (K, TA,) i. e. with sweet odour: (TA:) as also ↓ فَعِمَهُ and ↓ فَعَمَهُ, aor. of both فَعَمَ, (K, TA,) inf. n. فَعْمٌ; but better known with the pointed غ. (TA.) b4: And افعمهُ and افغمهُ He filled him with joy, or happiness. (Aboo-Turáb, TA.) 12 اِفْعَوْعَمَ It became full, and overflowed. (K.) b2: And افعوعم طِيبًا It (a house, or chamber, or tent,) became filled with perfume.

أَفْعَمُ Full [like فَعْمٌ]: or overflowing by reason of fulness. (TA.) مُفْعَمٌ Filled; applied in this sense to a skin for water or milk; as also مُفْأَمٌ: but as to ↓ مَفْعُومٌ, IAar asserts that he had not heard it except in a verse of Kutheiyir: Az, however, mentions it as signifying full [like فَعْمٌ], applied to a river, or rivulet: and Aboo-Sahl cites an ex. of it from the verses of the Fs as signifying full of flesh. (TA.) b2: The phrase سَيْلٌ مُفْعَمٌ may be of the same category as هَمٌّ نَاصِبٌ [for هَمٌّ ذُو نَصَبٍ], the meaning being A torrent having the quality of filling; though the possessive epithet in most instances has the form of the act. part. n., such as طَالِقٌ [for ذَاتَ طَلَاقٍ] and مُرْضِعٌ [for ذَاتُ رَضِيعٍ]: or it may be that مَفْعَمٌ in this case is expressive of muchness, or abundance, like the latter word in the phrase شِعْرٌ شَاعِرٌ and in مَوْتٌ مَائِتٌ. (Ham p. 106.) مَفْعُومٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

Lawsonia inermis, or Egyptian privet]: (K:) [said to be] a dial. var. of فَاغِيَةٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) أَفْعًى, (S, Msb, K) of the fem. gender, but with tenween, (S, Msb,) because it is a subst., not an epithet; (Msb;) [said in the S and Msb to be like أَرْوًى; but this is a mistake, for اروى is without tenween;] or it is an epithet and a subst.; (K, TA;) but mostly a subst.; (TA;) [if used as an epithet, it is without tenween, written أَفْعَى, being also of the measure of a verb;] A certain serpent, (S, Msb, K,) of a malignant kind; [i. e. the viper;] also called ↓ أُفْعُوٌّ, (K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, اُفْعُوان, which see in what follows,]) occurring in a trad., in which it is said that there is no harm in the killing of the أُفْعُوّ and the حُدُوّ by the مُحْرِم, the [final] alif being changed into و in both of these words in the dial. of El-Hijáz: (TA:) it is spotted, black and white; slender in the neck; broad in the head; it is said that it will not quit its place; (TA;) always coiling itself round; and neither antidote nor charm is of any avail against it: (Msb, TA:) sometimes it has two horns [i. e. it sometimes signifies the cerastes, or horned viper]: (TA:) ↓ أُفْفُوَانٌ signifies the male: (S, Msb, TA:) [see also خِشَاشٌ:] the pl. is أَفَاعٍ. (S, Msb, K. * [In the K, the pl. is written أَفَاعِى, which, when indeterminate, is wrong.]) b2: [Hence,] by way of comparison [to vipers], (TA,) الأَفَاعِى signifies (tropical:) Certain veins (عُرُوق) that branch off from the حَالِبَانِ [q. v.]. (K.) أَفْعآءٌ [a pl. of which the sing. is not mentioned] Sweet, or pleasant, odours. (IAar, M, K.) أُفْعُوٌّ, and أُفْعُوانٌ: see أَفْعًى.

(TA.) b2: حَجَا القَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا (S, K *) He repaid, requited, compensated, or recompensed, the people, or party, [with, or for, such and such things,] syn. جَزَاهُمْ; [so in my copies of the S, and in the K; but Freytag gives, as the reading found by him in the S, حزاهم, as though meaning he computed them by conjecture to be such and such in number; which is agreeable with what follows;] and he thought them to be so. (S.) A2: He directed himself, or his course or aim, to, or towards, him, or it: (Az, TA:) and ↓ تحجّى

فِى كَذَا, i. e. There is no concealment with me in respect of such a thing; as also لا مُكَافَأَةَ. (TA.) b2: لَا يَحْجُو إِبِلَهُ, said of a pastor, He does not, or will not, keep and tend, or pasture and defend, his camels. (TA.) One says also of a pastor whose sheep or goats [and camels] are lost by him, and become dispersed, مَا يَحْجُو غَنَمَهُ وَلَا إِبِلَهُ [He does not keep his sheep or goats, nor his camels, from being lost and becoming dispersed].

And بِهٰذَا المَكَانِ ↓ تَحَجَّيْتُ I preceded you, or outwent you, to this place, and clave to it before you. (S, TA.) And [hence,] بِهِمْ ↓ تحجّى is said to mean (assumed tropical:) He was first, or foremost, or quick, to blame them. (TA.) b3: حَجِىَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـَ (TA,) is also [said to be] syn. with عَدَا, (K,) He ran; (TK;) thus bearing two contr. significations: (K:) but this requires consideration.

[And hence, I tried him with an enigma or enigmas, and overcame him therein: (see 6:) or] I proposed to him an enigma [&c.]: (T, TA:) [or I contended with him in proposing an enigma or enigmas, &c.]: i. e. دَاعَيْتُهُ فَغَلَبْتُهُ: (S:) so in the handwriting of Aboo-Zekereeyà, and in that of Aboo-Sahl, [and in my two copies of the S,] but in [some of the copies of] the S دعيته.

[or rather coll. gen. n.] of ↓ حَجَاةٌ: (S, K: [in the CK, erroneously, حِجاة:]) the latter word, which is like حَصَاةٌ, is explained by Az as signifying a bubble that rises upon water, like a flask; and as having for its pl. حَجَوَاتٌ: and the same word (حجاة) signifies also a pool of water, itself, such as is left by a torrent. (TA.) A3: See also حَجِىٌّ.

حَجَاةٌ: see حَجًا.

حَجْوَى a subst. signifying مُحَاجَاةٌ [i. e. A contention in intelligence &c.; and particularly, in trying with an enigma or enigmas; in proposing an enigma or enigmas; or simply the proposal of an enigma; see 3]; (T, TA;) the subst. denoted by حَاجَيْتُهُ فَحَجَوْتُهُ; (K;) [or rather by the verb حَاجَيْتُ, agreeably with the foregoing explanation from the T;] as also ↓ حُجَيَّا, (S, K, TA,) with a dammeh, (K, TA,) and with teshdeed of the ى; (TA; [in some copies of the K erroneously written حُجْيُا;]) and ↓ أُحْجِيَّةٌ: (S:) or ↓ حُجَيًّا is the dim. of حَجْوَى: (T, TA:) and ↓ أُحْجِيَّةٌ signifies a saying of which the meaning differs from the letter, as also ↓ أُحْجُوَّةٌ, (K,) but احجيّة is preferable, (T, TA,) and كَلِمَةٌ

(Seer, in Har ubi suprà.) One says, مَاكَانَ ↓ حُجَيَّاكَ كَذَا وَكَذَا [The question of contention with thee in trying thine intelligence by an enigma, or the enigma proposed to thee, is, What is, or was, such a thing, and such a thing?]: it means a certain game, and a question put with the view of causing one to make a mistake: A 'Obeyd says, It is like their saying, Disclose what is in my hand, and thou shalt have such a thing. (S.) One says also, فِى هٰذَا ↓ أَنَا حُجَيَّاكَ, meaning مَنْ يُحَاجِيكَ [i. e. I am he who contends with thee in intelligence, or in trying with an enigma, &c., respecting this thing]. (S.) And ↓ بَيْنَهُمْ أُحْجِيَّةٌ يَتَحَاجَونَ بِهَا [Between them is a contention in intelligence, or in proposing enigmas, or between them is an enigma, with which they try one another]. (S.) هُوَحَجِىٌّ بِهِ He is adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, for it; or worthy of it; as also ↓ حَجٍ, (S, M, K, TA,) of which the pl. is حَجُونَ; (TA;) and ↓ حَجًى, (S, M, K, TA,) which last has no fem. nor dual nor pl. form, (S, M,) retaining the same form as fem. and dual and pl.: (M:) and in like manner you say, أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ ↓ إِنَّهُ لَمَحْجَاةٌ Verily he is adapted, &c., to do that; (S, K; *) and إِنَّهَا لَمَحْجَاةٌ; and إِنَّهُمْ لَمَحْجَاةٌ. (S.) b2: حَجِىٌّ is also syn. with حَرِيصٌ [Vehemently desirous, eager, &c.]. (KL.) حُجَيَّا: see حَجْوَى, in five places.

A2: Respecting this word in the phrase حثجْ حُجَيَّاكَ, see حَاجَةٌ (in art. حوج), near the end of the paragraph.

أحْجَى More, and most, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, proper, or worthy: (TA, Ham p. 523:) so in the saying, هُوَ أَحْجَى أَنْ يَكُونَ كَذَا [He is more, or most, adapted, &c., to be thus; or worthy of being thus]: (TA:) and فُلَانٌ أَحْجَى بِكَذَا [Such a one is more, or most, adapted, &c., for such a thing; or worthy of it]. (Ham ubi suprà.) Hence, in a trad., مَعَاشِرُ هَمْدَانَ أَحْجَى حَىٍّ بِالكُوفَةِ [The companies of Hemdán are the most worthy tribe in El-Koofeh]: or, as some say, the meaning is, the most intelligent tribe.

بزو

1 بَزَا, aor. ـْ i. q. تَطَاوَلَ [app. as meaning He stretched out his neck, looking at a thing far off]; and تَأَنَّسَ [here meaning the same, or he looked, raising his head; said of a hawk, or falcon]: (Az, ISd, K:) and hence IJ says that ↓ بَازٌ is [originally] of the measure فَلْعٌ from this verb: (TA: [and it is said in the K that بَازٍ

seems to be hence derived:]) for [or تطاول may here be used in another sense; for, accord. to Fei,] بَزَا, aor. as above, signifies he overcame, or subdued; and hence is derived ↓ بَازٍ. (Msb.) Yousay also, بَزَا عَلَيْهِ, aor. as above, meaning تطاول [i. e., thus followed by عليه, He held up his head with an assumption of superiority over him; behaved haughtily towards him; exalted himself above him; or overpowered, subdued, or oppressed, him]. (S.) And بُزِىَ بِالقَوْمِ The people, or company of men, were overcome, or subdued. (TA.) And بَزَاهُ, aor. as above, (K,) inf. n. بَزْوٌ, (TA,) He overcame, or subdued, him; and laid violent hands upon him, or assaulted him; as also ↓ ابزى

بِهِ: (K:) or this last signifies he overcame him, and subdued him: (S:) and بَزَاهُ, he wronged him; or treated him wrongfully, or injuriously: and ↓ ابزاهُ may signify the same; or this may mean he induced him to become أَبْزَى, q. v.: (Ham p.

502:) and accord. to Aboo-Riyásh, ↓ ابزى signifies he pressed heavily upon his adversary, or imposed on him that which he was unable to do, or to bear, in order to treat him wrongfully, or injuriously. (Ham pp. 104 and 105.) [It is said that] بَزَوَانٌ [an inf. n. of which the verb, if it have one, is بَزَا,] signifies the act of Leaping; syn. وَثْبٌ. (S: [but I think it not improbable that this may have been taken from a mistranscription of نَزَوَانٌ, an inf. n. of نَزَا.]) A2: بَزِىَ, (K,) aor. ـَ (Ham p. 502;) and بَزَا, aor. ـُ (K;) inf. n. بَزًا (S, * K, * TA) and بَزْوٌ, (TA,) He (a man, TA) had what is termed بَزًا; (K;) i. e., prominence of the breast and depression of the back: (S, K, and Ham ubi suprà:) or depression of the back and prominence of the belly: or, as some say, prominence of the breast and depression of the lower part of the belly: (Ham ubi suprà:) or depression of the breast and prominence of the lower part of the belly: (Ham p. 105:) or a bending in the back next the posteriors: (K, TA:) or a projecting of the middle of the back over the posteriors: or a backward bulging of the posteriors: (K:) or he was as though his posteriors projected over the hinder part of the thighs: or he had the breast bulging forward and the posteriors backward, so that he appeared unable to straighten his back.

(TA.) Accord. to IAar, البزاء [probably a mistranscription for الإِبْزَآءُ] signifies الصلف [i. e. الصَّلَفُ, app. meaning An extravagant affecting of elegance of carriage, such as is common with women]. (TA.) 6 تبازى: see 4. b2: Also He stepped wide. (K.) b3: And He made a vain, or false, boast of abundance, or riches; or a boast of more than he possessed; or invested himself with that which did not belong to him.

(of بَازٍ, S, ISd, Msb) is بُزَاةٌ (S, ISd, Msb, K) and بَوَازٍ; (ISd, K;) and (of بَازٌ, Msb) بِيزَانٌ (Msb, K) and أَبْوَازٌ, (Msb,) the former a pl. of mult., and the latter a pl. of pauc., (TA,) or the former is originally بُزْيَانٌ [and therefore a pl. of بَازٍ]; (IKtt, TA in art. ميد;) and (of بَأْزٌ, K in art. بأز,) أَبْؤُزٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and بُؤُوزٌ (K in this art. and in art. بأز) and بِئْزَانٌ.

(TA.) هُوَ مُبْزٍ بِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ He is strong, or able, to perform this affair; a prudent, or sound, manager thereof. (S.)
