(K.) 3 تَاْهَمَ see 4.4 اتهم He (a man, S) went, (S,) or came, (K,) to Tihámeh: (S, K:) Er-Riyáshee says, I have heard the Arabs of the desert say thus of him who has descended from the mountain-roads of Dhát 'Irk: (TA:) or he alighted, or abode, therein: (K:) as also ↓ تَاهَمَ, (JK, K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, تَاهَّمَ,]) in the latter sense, (JK,) and ↓ تتهّم; (K;) or these mean he came to Tihámeh. (TA.) b2: [Accord. to Golius, on the authority of a gloss. in the KL, it signifies also, He went into a region of hot air: and this, if correct, may be the primary meaning.]

A2: اتهم البَلَدَ He found the country, or town, to be insalubrious, (K, TA,) and to have a bad, or foul, odour. (TA.) A3: اتهم, inf. n. إِتْهَامٌ; in measure like أَكْرَمَ, inf. n. إِكْرَامٌ; (Msb;) [originally اوهم; or] formed from تُهَمَةٌ, in consequence of imagining the ت in this word to be radical; (MF in art. وهم;) [like as is said of أَتْخَمَ;] He did a thing that made him an object of suspicion: (JK and Msb and TA in the present art.:) or he was an object of suspicion: (K in art. وهم: [in the CK and TK, erroneously, اتّهم:]) or there was in him that which induced suspicion: you say of a man, when you suspect him, أَتْهَمْتَ, inf. n. إِتْهَامٌ; like أَدْوَأْتَ, inf. n. إِدْوَآءٌ. (S in art. وهم.) A4: اتهمهُ He suspected him; thought evil of him; as also ↓ اِتَّهَمَهُ [which is the more common]. (Msb in this art.) You say, اتهمهُ بِكَذَا, (K, and so in some copies of the S, both in art. وهم,) inf. n. إِتْهَامٌ; (K in that art.;) or بِهِ ↓ اِتَّهَمَهُ; (Msb and K, and so in some copies of the S, all in that art.;) and أَوْهَمَهُ; (K in that art.;) He suspected him of such a thing; imputed it to him; (Msb and K * and TA, all in that art.;) [and he accused him of such a thing;] i. e., a thing attributed to him. (TA.) And ↓ اِتَّهَمْتُهُ فِى قَوْلِهِ [I suspected him in respect of his saying;] I doubted of the correctness, or truth, of his saying. (Msb in art. وهم.) 5 تَتَهَّمَ see 4.8 إِتَّهَمَ see 4, in three places.

تَهَمٌ [in the CK, erroneously, تَهْم] Land descending (أَرْضٌ مُتَصَوِّبَةٌ [in the CK, here and afterwards, erroneously, مُتَصَوِّيَة]) to the sea; as also ↓ تَهَمَةٌ; (K, TA;) mentioned by IKt, from Ez-Ziyádee, from As: (TA:) these two words seem to be [originally] inf. ns. from تِهَامَةُ: (K:) [and accord. to F,] ↓ التَّهْمَةُ is a dial. var. of ↓ تِهَامَةُ: (K:) [but J says,] ↓ التَّهَمَةُ is used in the place of ↓ تِهَامَةُ, as though it were [originally] the inf. n. un., accord. to the saying of As that التَّهَمُ, with fet-h to the medial radical, is an inf. n. from ↓ تِهَامَةُ: (S:) for the ↓ تَهَائِم [pl. of تِهَامَةُ, and thus meaning the parts of Tihámeh, or, accord. to the JK, meaning lands descending to the sea,] do descend to the sea: (K, TA:) so says As: (TA:) and [hence] the rájiz says, (namely, Sheytán Ibn-Mudlij, TA,) نَظَرْتُ وَالعَيْنُ مُبِينَةُ التَّهَمْ [I looked, the eye distinguishing Et-Taham], (S, and Ham p. 659,) meaning Et-Tihámeh. (Ham ibid.) b2: [As inf. n. of تَهِمَ, q. v.,] التَّهَمُ also signifies Vehemence of heat, and [or with] stillness of the wind. (K.) And hence Tihámeh is said to be thus called. (TA.) تَهِمٌ, applied to flesh-me., Altered for the worse; (JK;) having a foul odour; stinking. (JK, * K.) b2: أَرْضٌ تَهِمَةٌ A land vehemently, or intensely, hot. (Er-Riyáshee, TA.) A2: Sleeping; (JK;) i. q. تَهِنٌ. (TA in art. لعث.) التَّهْمَةُ: see تَهَمٌ. b2: It, (K,) or ↓ التَّهَمَةُ, (JK,) signifies also البَلْدَةُ [app. as meaning Mekkeh, like ↓ تِهَامَةُ; as though the city of cities]: (JK, K:) so in the phrase ↓ أَهْلُ التَّهَمَةِ [which may mean The people of Mekkeh; and also, of Tihá-meh, in the more extended sense of the latter appellation]. (JK.) تُهْمَةٌ: see تُهَمَةٌ.

فِيهِ تَهَمَةٌ In it is a foul odour; a stink. (K.) b2: See also تَهَمٌ. b3: التَّهَمَةُ: see تَهَمٌ, and التَّهْمَةُ; the latter in two places.

تُهَمَةٌ, (S, M, K, &c., in art. وهم, and Msb in that art. and in the present also,) of which ↓ تُهْمَةٌ is a dial. var. mentioned by El-Fárábee (Msb, and TA in art. وهم) and by several other authors, or, accord. to Ibn-Kemál, the latter is an inf. n. and the former is a simple subst., but Esh-Shiháb doubts of this; (TA;) originally وَهَمَةٌ, (S, ISd, Msb, &c.,) like as تُخَمَةٌ is originally وُخَمَةٌ; (ISd, TA;) a subst. from اِتَّهَمَهُ; (S, Msb, both in art. وهم;) Doubt: and [more commonly] suspicion, or evil opinion; or doubt combined with suspicion or evil opinion: syn. شَكٌّ: and رِيبَةٌ: (Msb in the present art.:) or i. q. ظَنٌّ [which is a preponderating wavering between the two extremes of indecisive belief; and often means suspicion]: (ISd and TA in art. وهم:) or a thing for which one is suspected: (K in that art.: [and this is often meant by رِيبَةٌ, one of the syns. mentioned above:]) the pl. of تُهْمَةٌ is تُهَمٌ, mentioned by Sb, who argues that it is a pl. [and not a coll. gen. n.] from their saying هِىَ التُّهَمُ [They are suspicions, &c.], and not saying هُوَ التُّهَمُ like as they say هُوَ الرُّطَبُ. (TA in art. وهم.) تَهَامٍ: see تِهَامِىٌّ.

تَهِيمٌ Suspected; thought evil of; (JK in this art., and Msb in this and in art. وهم;) [as also ↓ مُتَّهَمٌ and ↓ مُتْهَمٌ:] or being an object of suspicion; as also ↓ مُتْهِمٌ. (K in art. وهم. [In the CK, the latter is erroneously written مُتَّهِمٌ.]) تِهَامَةُ a name of Mekkeh: (JK, K:) and [more commonly] a certain land, (Msb, K,) well known, (K,) commencing from Dhát 'Irk, (Msb, TA,) towards Nejd, (Msb,) and extending to Mekkeh and beyond it to the distance of two day's journeys (Msb, TA) and more, then uniting with the Ghowr, and extending to the sea: some say that it adjoins the land of El-Yemen; and that Mekkeh is of تِهَامَةُ اليَمَنِ: (Msb:) [F says that] J has erred in terming it a بَلَد: (K:) [but by بلد, J may mean both a city and a country or province:] some say that its name is from تَهِمَ in the first of the senses assigned to this verb above, because it is low in relation to Nejd, so that its odour is bad; and some, that it is from the same verb in the sense explained in the second sentence, because of its vehement heat: (Msb:) [it seems to have تَهَائِمُ for a pl.:] see تَهَمٌ, in four places; and التَّهْمَةُ.

تِهَامِىٌّ Of, or belonging to, Tihámeh; as also ↓ تَهَامٍ, (T, S, M, Msb, K, [in the CK, erroneously, تَهامٌ,]) with fet-h, (Msb, K,) irregularly formed; (M, Msb;) fem. تَهَامِيَةٌ; like رَبَاعٍ and رَبَاعِيَةٌ: (T, Msb:) when it is pronounced with fet-h to the ت, it is without teshdeed [to the ى when you say التَّهَامِى and تَهَامِيَةٌ]; as in the instances of رَجُلٌ يَمَانٍ and شَآمٍ, except that the ا in تَهَامٍ is of the original word, and that in يَمَانٍ and شَآمٍ is a substitute for the two ى of the [regular] rel. n., (S,) or rather, for one of those two ى: (Aboo-Zekereeyà, TA:) and you say قَوْمٌ تَهَامُونَ [A people, or company of men, of Tihámeh], like يَمَانُونَ: (S, K:) and accord. to Sb, some say تَهَامِىٌّ and يَمَانِىٌّ and شَآمِىٌّ, with fet-h, and with teshdeed [to the ى]. (S.) مُتْهَمٌ: see تَهِيمٌ.

مُتْهِمٌ [Going, or coming, to Tihámeh: or alighting, or abiding, therein: and] alighting, or abiding, in Mekkeh. (TA.) b2: وَادٍ مُتْهِمٌ A valley of which the water pours to Tihámeh. (TA.) A2: See also تَهِيمٌ.

ث

أب1 ثُئِبَ, ('Eyn, T, M, K,) like عُنِىBَ, (K,) and ثَئِبَ, (IKoot, L, and so in a copy of the A,) inf. n. ثَأْبٌ, (K,) or ثَأَبٌ, (M,) He became relaxed and sluggish; said of a man: (A:) or he became affected with sluggishness and languor; (M;) as also ↓ تثآءب: (M, A:) or he became affected with sluggishness and languor like the languor of drowsiness; as also ↓ تثآءب and ↓ تثأّب; (K;) which last is approved by IDrd and Thábit Es-Sara- kustee, who disallow ↓ تثآءب, though this is the form commonly known and approved, and is the most chaste form: (TA:) or he became affected with languor like the heaviness of drowsiness, in consequence of something that he had eaten or drunk, without becoming insensible; (T;) as also ↓ تثآءب: (L:) or ↓ this last signifies he yawned, or opened his mouth, (Mgh, Msb,) by reason, (Mgh,) or on the occasion, (Msb,) of languor (Mgh, Msb,) like the heaviness of drowsiness; (Mgh;) or he yawned, or opened his mouth, and stretched himself, on being affected by sluggishness or drowsiness or anxiety; (MF, TA, on the authority of IDrst;) or he yawned, or opened his mouth, and emitted wind from his stomach, by reason of some affection thereof: (TA on the authority of EtTedmuree:) التَّثَاؤُبُ is from الثُّؤَبَآءُ; (Az, T, S, Mgh;) and is on the occasion of one's stretching himself, and being languid: (Lth, T:) one should not say تَثَاوَبَ; (Az, T, S, O, Mgh;) [for] this is vulgar. (Msb.) Hence, أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيُغَطِّ ↓ إِذَا تَثَأَءَبَ فَاهُ [When any one of you yawns, he should cover his mouth with the back of his left hand; for it is believed that the devil leaps into the uncovered yawning mouth]. (Mgh.) 5 تَثَاَّ^َ see 1.6 تَثَاَّ^َ see 1, in six places.

ثُؤَبَآءُ, (T, S, M, K, &c.,) as also ثُؤْبَآء, accord. to Ibn-Mis-hal, but this is strange, (TA,) is a subst. derived from التَّثَاؤُبُ, like مُطُوَآءُ from التَّمَطِّى; (T;) or from ثَئِبَ; and means A state of relaxation and sluggishness: (A:) or sluggishness and languor (M, K) like the languor of drowsiness: (K:) or languor like the heaviness of drowsiness, in consequence of something that one has eaten or drunk, not attended by insensibility: (T, L:) or a yawning, or opening the mouth, by reason of languor like the heaviness of drowsiness: (Mgh:) or a yawning, or opening the mouth, and stretching oneself, on being affected by sluggishness or drowsiness or anxiety: (IDrst, MF, TA:) or a yawning, or opening the mouth, and emitting wind from the stomach, by reason of some affection thereof. (Et-Tedmuree, TA.) Hence the prov., أَعْدَــى مِنَ الثُّؤَبَآءِ, (S, A, TA,) and [الثُّوَبَآءِ,] without ء, as some say; (MF;) or the pronunciation without ء is vulgar, (IDrst, TA,) or erroneous; (TA;) [More catching than yawning;] for when a man yawns ( اذا تثاءب ) in the presence of others, they become affected as he is. (TA.) مَثْؤُوبٌ Affected with sluggishness and languor like the languor of drowsiness: from ثُئِبَ, q. v. (K.)

And hence,] ثَبَتَ is also syn. with وَجَبَ [as meaning It was, or became, or proved to be, binding, obligatory, incumbent, or due: and it was, or became, necessitated, necessary, or requisite: so that ثَبَتَ عَلَيْهِ means also it was, or became, or proved to be, binding, obligatory, or incumbent, on him; or it rested, or lay, on him; as a debt, or a duty: and it (a sentence &c.) became necessitated to take effect upon him: and ثَبَتَ لَهُ it was, or became, or proved to be, due to him, or owing to him].

[Explained in a copy of that work, followed in the TA, by قَبِلَهُ; but this is undoubtedly a mistranscription for قَتَلَهُ, q. v.]) b7: Also, (i. e. اثبتهُ alone,) He verified it. (Har p. 175.) b8: And (tropical:) He wrote it, [set it down, registered it, or recorded it,] i. e., a man's name, (A, Msb, TA,) فِى الدِّيوَانِ [in the register of soldiers or pensioners or accounts].

[Golius explains ثَخَنٌ as meaning “ crassities, spissitudo; ” on the anthority of Ibn-Maaroof and Ibn-Beytár; but I suspect that he found ثَخَنٌ in their works written for ثُخْنٌ or ثِخَنٌ, both inf. ns. of ثَخُنَ.]

ثَخَنَةٌ: see ثَخُنٌ.

ثَخِينٌ part. n. of ثَخُنَ; (S, Msb;) Thick, big, coarse, or gross; and hard, firm, stiff, tough, or strong: (S:) [thick, dense, or compact: &c.: see 1: pl. ثِخَانٌ.] You say ثَوْبٌ ثَخِينٌ A garment, or piece of cloth, thick, or close, or full, in texture, and, as Az adds, in warp. (TA.) b2: Applied to a man, Completely armed: (KL:) or ثَخِينُ السِّلَاحِ has this meaning. (S.) b3: Also (JK, TA) (tropical:) Forbearing, clement, grave, sedate, or calm: (JK, K, * TA: [in some copies of the K, الحَكِيمُ is erroneously put for الحَلِيمُ:]) in the M, heavy in his sitting-place. (TA.) مُثْخَنٌ [pass. part. n. of 4, q. v.]. You say, تَرَكْتُهُ مُثْخَنًا وَقِيذًا [I left him weakened, languid, enervated, or much wounded; beaten until he was at the point of death]. (TA.) b2: (assumed tropical:) Forbearing, clement, grave, sedate, or calm, in mind, or intellect. (TA.)

(S.) A2: وَبَأَ, aor. ـْ (K; contr. to rule, which requires that the aor. should be يَبَا; MF;) and ↓ وبّأ; He put the utensils, or goods, one upon another; or packed them up: or he prepared, set in order, or arranged, them; syn. عَبَأَ. (K.) A3: وَبَأَ إِلَيْهِ; (S, K: Ibn-El-Mukarram says, I think that Th has mentioned وَبَأْتُ, without tesh-deed; but I am not confident of it; TA;) and ↓ اوبأ, inf. n. إِيْبَآءٌ; (S, K;) dial. vars. of وَمَأَ and أَوْمَأَ; (S;) He made a sign to him: (S, K:) or اوبأ اليه signifies he made a sign to him with his fingers, forwards, that he should approach; and اومأ اليه “ he made a sign to him with his fingers, backwards, that he should retire, or remain behind. ” So accord. to the K; but this is at variance with what the leading lexicographers have transmitted. In the L it is said, وبأ اليه and اوبأ are dial. syns. of ومأ and اومأ he made a sign to him: or, accord. to some, اومأ اليه signifies “ he made a sign with his hand to him, (i. e., to a person before him,) turning his fingers towards the palm of his hand, in order that he should approach him; ” [in doing which, the palm of the hand is held towards the person beckoned;] and ↓ اوبا أليه he made a sign to him; (i. e., to a person behind him,) opening his fingers [from the palm] towards the back of the hand, in order that he should retire, or remain behind; [in doing which, the palm of his hand is towards himself]. El-Ferezdak says, تَرَى النَّاسَ إِنْ سِرْنَا يَسِيرُونَ خَلْفَنَا النَّاسِ وَقَّفُوا ↓ وَإِنْ نَحْنُ وَبَّأْنَا إِلَى

[If we journey on, thou seest the people journey on behind us; and if we make a sign to the people to remain behind, they stop, one after another]. ↓ أَوْبَأْنَا is also read in this verse for وَبَّأْنَا. Ibn-Buzruj says, that اومأ signifies “ he made a sign with the eyebrows, and the eyes; ” and ↓ وبّأ, he made a sign with the hands, and a garment, and the head. (TA.) b2: وَبَأَتْ إِلَيْهِ, aor. ـَ She (a camel) yearned towards it [i. e., towards her young one]; or uttered to it the cry produced by yearning: syn. حَنَّتْ. (K.) 2 وَبَّاَ see 1.4 اوبأ It became unwholesome: syn. صَارَ وَبِيْأً. (TA.) A2: See 1.

The like is said of pasture. (TA.) 5 تَوَبَّاَ see 10.10 استوبا (S, K,) and ↓ توبّأ (TA) He found, or deemed, a country, (S, K,) or water, (TA,) unhealthy, or unwholesome: (K, TA:) [see وَبَأٌ:] or, much afflicted with disease.

(TA.) Accord. to Ibn-En-Nefees, it is a corruption happening to the substance of the air, by reason of causes in the heavens or the earth; as stinking water, and carcases, such as are the result of bloody battles. Accord. to the hakeem Dá-ood, it is a change effected in the air by events in the higher regions, as the conjunction of beaming stars; and by events in the lower regions, as bloody battles, and the opening of graves, and the ascending of putrid exhalations; with which causes conspire the changes of the seasons and elements, and the revolutions of the universe. They mention also its signs; among which are fever, small-pox, defluxions, itch or scab, tumours, &c. What is said in the Nuzheh necessarily implies that the طاعون is one of the different kinds of وبا; as the physicians hold to be the case: but the opinion which the critics among the professors of practical law and the relaters of traditions hold is, that these two diseases are distinct, the one from the other; the وبا being an unwholesomeness in the air, in consequence of which diseases become common among men; and the طاعون being that kind [of disease] with which men are smitten by the jinn, or genii: an opinion which they corroborate by the words in a trad. إِنَّهُ وَحْزُ أَعْدَــائِكُمْ مِنَ الجِنِّ [Verily it is the unpenetrating thrusting of your enemies among the jinn]. (TA.) The pl. of وَبَأٌ is أَوْبَآءُ; and of ↓ أَوْبِيَةٌ, وَبَآءٌ (S, K, TA) or أَوْبِئَةٌ. (CK.) بِئَةٌ The state of a land being afflicted with وَبَأ.

(S.) وَبَاءٌ: see وَبَأٌ.

وَبِىْءٌ Sick; unwell; (IAar:) See أرْضٌ وَبِئَةٌ. b2: وَبِىْءٌ Unwholesome water. (TA.) مُوبِئٌ Engendering وَبَأ. (TA.) b2: جُرْعَةَ شَرُوبٍ

أَنْفَعُ مِنْ عَذْبٍ مُوبٍ A draught of brackish water is more profitable than sweet water that engenders وَبَأ. (A trad.) Here the وَبُاَ is omitted in the last word to assimilate it to شروب. It is a proverb, applied to two men; one, superior in station, and more slim; the other, inferior in station, but more useful. (TA.) b3: See أَرْضٌ وَبِئَةٌ. b4: مُوبِئٌ Water that is little in quantity; and failing, or stopping. (K.) مَوْبُوْءَةٌ: see أَرُضٌ وَبِئَهٌ.

وك

أ1 وَكڤاَ see 8.3 واكأ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ He leaned upon his hands, or arms. Mohammad was seen to do so when he raised and extended his hands in supplication to God. (IAth.) 4 أَوْكَأَهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. إِيكَاءٌ, (S,) He set up for him a thing upon which to recline (مُتَّكَأٌ.) (S, K.) b2: أَتْكَأَهُ, (in which ت is substituted for و,) inf. n. إِتْكَاهُ, He propped him up by a cushion or other thing whereon to recline; made him recline upon a cushion &c. (Az, TA.) b3: ضَرَبَهُ فَأَتْكَأَهُ, (A,) or طَعَنَهُ حَتَّى أَتْكَأَهُ, originally أَوْكَأَهُ, (S,) (tropical:) He smote him, (A,) or pierced him, (S,) so that he made him fall in a reclining posture: (S, A, K: *) or, so that he threw him down upon his left side. (K.) b4: See 3.5 تَوَكَّاَ see 8.8 اِتَّكَأَ He sat in a firm, or settled, manner: and he sat leaning upon one of his sides: (Msb, in art. تكأ:) the vulgar know it only in the latter sense: but it signifies he leaned, rested, or stayed, his back, or his side, against, or upon, a thing: and he leaned, rested, or stayed, himself in any manner, upon a thing. (IAth, in Msb, art. وكأ.) b2: اِتَّكَأَ عَلَى شَىْءٍ, (S,) and ↓ توكّأ, (S, K,) and ↓ اوكأ; (K;) and ↓ تَكِئَ, [in which ت is substituted for و,] aor. ـْ inf. n. تَكْءٌ; (Lth;) and ↓ وَكَأَ; (CK;) He leaned, or reclined, upon a thing; supported, propped, or stayed, himself upon it. (K.) b3: اِتَّكَأَ He reclined upon a cushion, &c. (TA.) b4: اِتَّكَأَ He made for him [i. e., app., for himself,] a thing upon which to lean, or recline: (CK, and a MS. copy of the K:) or he made him to be a thing upon which to lean, or recline. (TA.) [The latter seems to be wrong, unless the verb be read أَتْكَأَ.] b5: اِتَّكَأْنَا عِنْدَ فُلَانٍ (tropical:) We ate a repast with, or at the abode of, such a one. (TA.) A2: اِتَّكَأَتْ (MF) and ↓ تَوَكَّأَتْ (K) She (a camel) was taken with the pains of labour, and cried out. (K.) Accord. to Lth, تَوَكُّؤُ النَّاقَةِ signifies تصلّفها عند مخاضها: (TA:) [but it is evident that the right reading is تصلّقها; and the sense agreeable with the above explanation].

تُكَأَةٌ (in which ت is substituted for و, TA) A staff, or stick, (K,) upon which one leans in walking; a walking-stick: (TA:) that upon which one leans or reclines. (S, K.) b2: One who reclines much. (S, K.) b3: (tropical:) A heavy person [app., in disposition]. (TA.) مُتَّكِئٌ act. part. n. of 8. b2: لَا آكُلُ مُتَّكِئًا I (said Mohammad) eat not sitting in a firm, or settled, posture, cross-legged, or in such other similar manner as is adapted for much eating: for he used to eat sitting upon his hams, with his shanks erect, so as to be ready to rise. The meaning is not [only] “ inclining on one side,” as the vulgar among students imagine. (K.) مُتَّكَأ A place in which one reclines: (S:) a chamber, or sitting-room. (Akh, S.) b2: That upon which one leans, or reclines, in eating, drinking, or talking. (Zj.) b3: (tropical:) Food, or a repast: so called because people used to recline when they sat to eat: but the Muslims are forbidden to do so. [See مُتَّكِئٌ.] It is said to have this last meaning in the Kur. xii. 31. (TA.)

وثب

1 وَثَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وَثْبٌ and وُثُوبٌ (the latter agreeable with analogy, TA,) and وَثَبَانٌ and وَثِيبٌ (S, K) and وِثاَبٌ (K; but this is generally affirmed to be an inf. n. of وَاثَبَ, TA;) and ثِبَةٌ, (Ibn-Málik and others) He leaped; jumped; sprang; bounded: (S, K:) or he leaped down, or downwards. (Mgh, Msb, art. طفر.) b2: وَثَبَ المَوْضِعَ [He leaped, or jumped, upon, or over the place]. (TA.) b3: وَثَبَ إِلَى الشَّرَفِ وَثْبَةً (tropical:) [He made a single leap to eminence, or nobility]. (TA.) b4: وَثَبَ إِلَيْهِ [app., He leaped, or sprang up, or he hastened, to him]. (TA.) b5: الوُثُوبُ, except in the dial. of Himyer, signifies The act of rising, or standing up. (TA.) b6: It is also much used by the vulgar as signifying The act of hastening to a thing; as observed by MF, who is wrong in saying that there is nothing in the lexicons that favours its being so used. (TA.) A2: وَثَبَ, [aor. ـِ inf. n. وَثْبٌ, in the dial. of Himyer signifies He sat; sat down. (K, TA, from a trad.) ثِبْ in that dial. signifies Sit; sit down. (S.) It is related that Zeyd Ibn-Abd-Allah Ibn-Dárim came as an envoy to one of the kings of Himyer, and found him at a hunting-place belonging to him, on a high mountain, and he saluted him, and mentioned to him his lineage, or relationship; whereupon the king said to him ثِبْ, meaning إِجْلِسْ, Sit; but the man thought that he commanded him to leap from the mountain; and he said, “Thou shalt find me, O king, very obedient: ” then he leaped from the mountain, and perished. So the king said, “What ailed him? ” And they explained to him his case, and his mistake respecting the word: upon which he said لَيْسَتْ عِنْدَنَا عَرَبِيَّتْ مَنْ دَخَلَ ظَفَارِ حَمَّرَ i. e., [“ Arabic is not current with us: ” (for, probably, in the time of this king, the term عَرَبِيَّة was only applied to the general language of Arabia:) “ whoso entereth Dhafári,] let him learn [or, rather, speak, as MF says,] the Himyeree language. ” (Mz., 16th نوع.) [The principal facts of this anecdote are also mentioned in the S, on the authority of As.] By the king's saying عَرَبِيَّتْ was meant العَرَبِيَّةُ: the ة is pronounced ت in the case of a pause (which is the case here) in their dialect. (S.) Or, accord. to another relation of the above anecdote, the king said لَيْسَ عِنْدَنَا عَرَبِيَّتْ كَعَرَبِيَّتْكُمْ [“ Arabic like your Arabic is not current with us: ”] and this, says ISd, is the right reading in my opinion: for the king did not mean to exclude himself from the Arabs. (MF.) 2 وتّبه, inf. n. تَوْثِيبٌ, He seated him upon a cushion: (S, K:) asserted to be of the dial. of Himyer. (MF.) b2: وثّبه وِسَادَةً, (S, K,) in some copies of the K وَثَبَهُ, (TA,) He threw to him a cushion (S, L, K) that he might sit upon it: (S:) [app. in the dial. of Himyer]. b3: وَثَّبْتُهُ وِثَابًا I spread for him a bed, or the like. (TA.) 3 واثبه He leaped, or sprang, upon him, or at him; he assaulted or assailed him; syn. سَاوَرَهُ (S, K) and ثَاوَرَهُ. (K, art. ثور) and صَاوَلَهُ. (K, art. صول.) b2: [Also, perhaps, He contended with him in leaping, jumping, springing, or bounding.] b3: [واثبه is also mentioned in the TA as having a signification not explained in the K: app., He contended with him in hastening to a thing.]4 اوثبه He made him to leap, jump, spring, or bound. (S, Msb.) b2: اوثبه المَوْضِعَ [He made him to leap, or jump, upon, or over, the place]. (TA.) 5 توثّب فُلَانٌ فِى ضَيْعَةٍ لِى (tropical:) Such a one took possession unjustly of an estate belonging to me; he seized upon it unjustly. (S, K.) b2: توثّب فِى

أَرْضِهِ عَلَى أَخِيهِ (tropical:) He took possession of his land with injustice towards his brother. (A.) b3: توثّب عَلَى مَنْزِلَتِهِ (tropical:) He took possession unjustly of the place occupied by him. (A.) 6 هُمْ يَتَوَاثَبُونَ عَلَى كَذَا They leap, or rush, together upon such a thing [in an evil, or injurious, or a contentious manner]. (S, art. كلب.) التَّوَاثُبُ is syn. with التَّكَالُبُ. (S, K, art. كلب.) وَثْبَةٌ A single leap, jump, spring, a bound: (TA:) or a leap down, or downwards. (Mgh, Msb, art. طفر.) ثُبَةٌ An assembly; a company; a troop; a congregated body. (K.) [But it seems rather to belong to the root ثبى, as remarked by Freytag; or, accord. to some, to art. ثوب. See arts. ثبى and ثوب.]

وَثَبَى: see وَثَّاتٌ.

وِثَابٌ A throne, or couch; syn. سَرِيرٌ; (K;) accord. to some, that is always occupied by the king; or that the king does not cease to occupy: (TA:) [app. of the dial. of Himyer]. b2: A bed; or what is spread to lie or recline upon: (K:) ex. وَتَّبْتُهُ وِثَابًا I spread for him a bed, or the like: (TA:) or places where persons sit; syn. مَقَاعِدُ: (S, K:) in which case it is a pl., as some have expressly affirmed it to be: (TA:) accord. to IF and others, of the dial. of Himyer. (MF.) Applied to heaven (السَّمَاءُ) as being the sittingplaces of the angels. (S.) ظَبْىٌ وَتَّابٌ An antelope that leaps, jumps, springs, or bounds, quickly. فَرَسٌ وَثَّابَةٌ A mare that leaps, &c., quickly.
