(TA.) One says also ازلق رِجْلَهُ, (S,) or القَدَمَ, (Msb,) He made his (another's) foot to slip, (S,) or he made the foot not to remain firm, or fixed, in its place; and so ↓ زَلَّقَهَا. (Msb.) b2: ازلقت, said of a camel, (S, K, TA,) and of a mare, (TA,) She cast her young one; syn. أَسْقَطَتْ; (S, TA;) or أَجْهَضَتْ [q. v.]: (K:) or she (a mare) cast forth her young one completely formed: or, as some say, [her fœtus] not completely formed: (JK:) and you say also, ازلقت بِجَنِينِهَا, like أَمْلَصَتْ به [q. v.]: (Abu-l- 'Abbás, TA in art. ملص:) or ازلقت وَلَدَهَا is said of a female [of any kind], and means she cast forth her young one before it was completely formed. (Mgh.) b3: See also 1, last sentence.5 تزلّق He, or it, slipped, or slid, along; (KL;) like تزلّج. (S and TA in art. زلج.

(K, TA.) زَلْقٌ: see the next paragraph.

مَكَانٌ زَلَقٌ, (S,) or زَلَقٌ [alone], (K,) which is originally an inf. n., (S,) and ↓ زَلِقٌ and ↓ زَلْقٌ (K) and ↓ زَلَاقَةٌ and ↓ مَزْلَقٌ and ↓ مَزْلَقَةٌ, (S, K, TA, [the last two erroneously written in the CK مِزْلَق and مِزْلَقَة,]) all signify the same; (K;) A slippery place; a place on which the foot does not remain firm, or fixed.

Hence, in the Kur [xviii. 38], فَتُصْبِحَ صَعِيدًا زَلَقًا, i. e., [So that it shall become] smooth ground, with nothing in it, or with no plants in it: or, accord. to Akh, such that the feet shall not stand firmly upon it. (TA.) A poet says, (TA,) namely, Mohammad Ibn-Besheer, (Ham p. 551,) قَدِّرْ لِرِجْلِكَ قَبْلَ الخَطْوِ مَوْقِعَهَا فَمَنْ عَلَا زَلَقًا عَنْ غِرَّةٍ زَلَجَا [Appoint for thy foot, before the stepping, its place upon which it shall fall, or, as in the Ham p. 522, simply its place, (مَوْضِعَهَا,)] for he who goes upon a slippery place, in consequence of inadvertence, slips].
