Hence the reading of Aboo-Jaafar and Náfi', [in the Kur lxviii. 51,] وَإِنْ يَكَادُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيَزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ, meaning [And verily they who have disbelieved almost] smite thee with their evil eyes so as to remove thee from thy station in which God has placed thee, by reason of enmity to thee. (TA. [Or this reading may be rendered agreeably with the common reading: see 4.]) b3: زَلَقَ رَأْسَهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. زَلْقٌ, (S,) He shaved his head; as also ↓ ازلقهُ; and ↓ زلّقهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. تَزْلِيقٌ: (S:) IB says that, accord. to 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh, it is only زَبَقَهُ, with ب; and that الزَّبْقُ means the plucking out; not the shaving: but accord. to Fr, one says of him who has shaved his head قد زلقه, [whether with or without teshdeed is not shown,] and ازلقه. (TA.) 2 زلّق, [inf. n. تَزْلِيقٌ,] He made a place slippery, (K, TA,) so that it became like the مَزْلَقَة; and thus too though there be no water therein. (TA.) b2: Accord. to the O and K, [the inf. n.]

تَزْلِيقٌ also signifies The anointing the body with oils and the like, so that it becomes like the مَزْلَقَة; to which is added in the O, and though it be without water: but this is a confusion of two meanings; one of which is the first expl. above in this paragraph; and the other is, the anointing the body with oils and the like; as in the L and the Tekmileh. (TA.) b3: See also 4. b4: And see 1, last sentence. b5: زلّق الحَدِيدَةَ He made the iron thing to be always sharp. (K.) b6: رلّقهُ بِبَصَرِهِ, inf. n. as above, He looked sharply, or intently, at him, or it. (Ez-Zejjájee, TA.) b7: See also 2, last sentence, in art. دلص.4 ازلقهُ He made him to slip; as also ↓ زَلَقَهُ. (K.) All the readers except those of El-Medeeneh read, [in the Kur lxviii. 51,] وَإِنْ يَكَادُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَيُزْلِقُونَكَ بِأَبْصَارِهِمْ, meaning [and verily those who have disbelieved] almost make thee to fall by their looking hard at thee, with vehement hatred: so accord. to El-'Otbee: or the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) [almost] smite thee with their [evil] eyes: (TA:) [it is also said that] ازلق فُلَانًا بِبَصَرِهِ means (tropical:) he looked at such a one with the look of a person affected with displeasure, or anger: (K:) or so نَظَرَ إِلَى فُلَانٍ فَأَزْلَقَهُ بِبَصَرِهِ: (JM, TA:) and in this sense, also, is expl. the saying in the Kur mentioned above. (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. [See also 1.]) One says, تزلّقت الغُدَّةُ بَيْنَ الجِلْدِ وَاللَّحْمِ [The ganglion slipped about between the skin and the flesh]. (M in art. ديص.) b2: [Also It was, or became, smooth, or slippery: a signification indicated in the M, in art. ملس, where it is coupled with اِسْتَوَى.] b3: He anointed his body with oils and the like. (JK.) b4: He ornamented, or adorned, himself; (Aboo-Turáb, K, TA;) as also تزبّق: (Aboo-Turáb, TA:) and led an easy, and a soft, or delicate, life, so that his colour, and the exterior of his skin, had a shining, or glistening. (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. (S, TA.) 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]. (TA.) b2: زَلَقٌ also signifies The rump of a horse or similar beast. (S, K, TA.) زَلِقٌ: see the next preceding paragraph. b2: Applied to a man, Quickly angry (O, K) at what is said. (O) b3: And, (T, S, K,) as also ↓ زُمَلِقٌ (T, S, and K in art. زملق) and ↓ زُمَّلِقٌ and ↓ زُمَالِقٌ, (S, and K in art. زملق,) applied to a man, (T, S,) Qui semen emittit quum verba mulieri facit, sine congressu: (T, TA:) or qui semen emittit ante initum. (S, K.) زَلَقَةٌ A smooth rock; (K;) as also زَلَفَةٌ. (K in art. زلف.) b2: And, (Az, K,) as also the latter word, (Az, TA,) A mirror. (Az, K. [In the CK, المَرْأَةُ is erroneously put for المِرْآةُ.]) نَاقَةٌ زَلُوقٌ A quick, or swift, she-camel; (Az, K;) as also زَلُوجٌ. (Az, TA.) b2: And عُقْبَةٌ زَلُوقٌ [and زَلُوجٌ and زَلُوخٌ, in the CK, erroneously, عَقَبَةٌ,] A far-extending [stage of a journey]. (K, TA.) زَلِيقٌ i. q. سِقْطٌ [meaning A young one, or fœtus, that falls from the belly of the mother abortively, or in an immature, or imperfect, state, or dead, but having the form developed, or manifest]. (S, K.) زَلَاقَةٌ: see زَلَقٌ.

زُلَّيْقٌ The smooth peach; (S, K;) called in Pers\.

(TA.) أَزْلَقُ (K in art. دلص) Hairless and glistening in body. (TK in that art.) مَزْلَقٌ: see زَلَقٌ.

مَزْلَقَةٌ: see زَلَقٌ. [Hence,] one says, هُوَ عَلَى

مَزْلَقَةِ البَاطِلِ [He is on the slippery way of false religion or the like]. (MF voce جَادَّةٌ, q. v.) مِزْلَاقٌ i. q. مِزْلَاجٌ, (K,) a dial. var. of the latter word, [q. v.,] meaning The thing by means of which a door is closed, or made fast, and which is opened without a key. (S, K.) b2: Also A mare [or other female (see 4)] that often casts her young; (S, K;) i. e., that usually does so; and applied in this sense to a camel. (TA.)

زهق

1 زَهَقَتْ نَفْسُهُ, and زَهِقَتْ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) the latter preferred by IKoot and Hr, but the former by A'Obeyd, (TA,) aor. ـَ (S, Msb, K, *) inf. n. زُهُوقٌ, (S, Mgh,) which is of both verbs, (S,) or this is of the former verb, and the inf. n. of the latter is زَهَقٌ, (Msb,) [but in the K it seems to be indicated, by its being said of the latter verb that it is of the class of سَمِعَ, that the inf. n. of this verb is زَهْقٌ,] His soul went forth, passed forth, or departed: (S, Mgh, Msb, K, TA:) it perished: it died: (TA:) نَفْسُهُ ↓ اِنْزَهَقَتْ and اِنْزِهَاقُ الرُّوحِ are not of the [classical] language of the Arabs. (Mgh.) It is said in the Kur [ix. 55 and 86] وَتَزْهَقَ أَنْفُسُهُمْ وَهُمْ كَافِرُونَ [And that their souls may depart while they are unbelievers]. (S.) The primary meaning of زُهُوقٌ is The going forth, passing forth, or departing, with difficulty. (Bd in ix. 55.) b2: [Hence,] زَهَقَ الشَّىْءُ (tropical:) The thing perished, passed away, or came to nought; (Msb, K, TA;) became null, void, or of no effect. (K, TA.) And زَهَقَ البَاطِلُ (tropical:) What was false, or vain, passed away, or came to nought, (S, Msb, K, TA,) being overcome by the truth, or reality, or fact: or, accord. to Katádeh, by الباطل is here meant the devil.

(JK.) b4: And زَهَقَ الفَرَسُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. زُهُوقٌ, (assumed tropical:) The horse preceded, went before, got before, outwent, or outstripped. (S, * Msb.) And زَهَقَتِ الرَّاحِلَةُ, inf. n. زُهُوقٌ (ISk, S, K) and زَهْقٌ, (TA as from the K, [but not in the CK nor in my MS. copy of the K,]) (tropical:) The saddle-camel preceded, went before, got before, outwent, or outstripped, the horses, or horsemen; (ISk, JK, * S, K, TA;) and ↓ انزهقت signifies the same.

(K.) A2: زَهَقَ said of a bone, (S, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. زُهُوقٌ, Its marrow became compact and full; (S, K;) as also ↓ ازهق. (L, K.) And زَهَقَتِ الدَّابَّةُ, with the same aor. and inf. n., The beast was, or became, marrowy in the utmost degree, its marrow-bones being compacted and full. (TA.) b2: Also, said of marrow, It was, or became, compact and full. (S, K.) 2 زَهَّقَ see 2 in art. زرق: and see 4 below.3 زاهق الحَقُّ البَاطِلَ (TA [there expl. by زَهَقَه, a mistranscription, app. for ↓ أزْهَقَهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) The truth, or reality, or fact, made what was false, or vain, to pass away, or come to nought.]) 4 ازهق نَفْسَهُ He (God) caused his soul to go forth, pass forth, or depart. (Mgh, Msb.) The phrase القَتْلُ إِزْهَاقٌ means (assumed tropical:) Slaughter is a cause of making the soul to come to nought, and to depart. (Mgh.) b2: [Hence,] ازهق البَاطِلَ (tropical:) He (God) caused what was false, or vain, to pass away, or come to nought. (S, K, TA.) See also 3. b3: And ازهق السَّهْمَ (S, K) مِنَ الهَدَفِ (K) (tropical:) He made the arrow to pass beyond the butt.

(S.) [Accord. to my copy of the KL, ↓ تَزْهِيقٌ, inf. n. of زهّق, signifies (assumed tropical:) The shifting backwards of a camel's saddle from his back: see 2 in art. زرق.] b5: And ازهق فِى السَّيْرِ (assumed tropical:) He was quick [as though urging himself forward] in pace, or journeying. (K.) A2: ازهقهُ also signifies He filled it; (S, O, K;) namely, a vessel: (S, O:) but accord. to the L, he overturned it; i. e. a vessel. (TA.) A3: See also 1, near the end.7 إِنْزَهَقَ see 1, in three places. b2: One says also انزهقت الدَّابَّةُ (assumed tropical:) The beast leaped, or leaped upwards, (S,) or went forward, or preceded, (O, K,) in consequence of beating, or taking fright. (S, O, K.) And The beast fell into a deep place, or from a mountain; or fell from a mountain and died; syn. تَرَدَّتْ. (TA. [See the next paragraph.]) زَهَقٌ A low, or depressed, part of the ground. (S, O, K.) A hollow, or cavity, or deep hollow or cavity, in the ground; syn. وَهْدَةٌ: (JK, TA:) sometimes, or often, beasts fall into it, and die. (TA. [See 7.]) زَهِقٌ (tropical:) Light, and unsteady, or lightwitted; (S, K, TA;) applied to a man. (S.) A2: And A beast not exceeded in fatness. (TA.) زَهَقَى (assumed tropical:) A mare that precedes, or outgoes, the [other] horses, or the horsemen. (Sh, K.) هُمْ زُهَاقُ مِائَةٍ and زِهَاقُ مائة i. q. زُهَآءُ مِائَةٍ, (K, * TA,) i. e. They are of the number of a hundred. (TA.) زَهُوقٌ (tropical:) A thing passing away, or coming to nought; or that passes away, or comes to nought; as also ↓ زَاهِقٌ. (K, TA.) Hence, in the Kur [xvii. 83], إِنَّ البَاطِلَ كَانَ زَهُوقًا, i. e. (tropical:) [Verily what is false, or vain,] is a thing that passes away, or comes to nought. (TA.) b2: (tropical:) A deep well; (JK, S, K;) as also ↓ زَاهِقَةٌ; [in the TA زَاهِقٌ;] and in like manner both are applied to a place of destruction (مَتْلَفَةٌ); (JK;) and to a مَتْلَفَة [app. meaning a desert in which people perish] as meaning far-extending. (Ham p. 23.) And in like manner, (S,) the former is also applied [app. as an epithet] to a فَجّ [or road, or depressed road,] of an overpeering, or overhanging, mountain. (S, K.) b3: Also (tropical:) Light, or active; syn. خَفِيفٌ. (JK.) زَاهِقٌ Perishing, or dying. (Az, TA.) b2: See also زَهُوقٌ, in two places. b3: (tropical:) An arrow passing beyond the butt, and falling behind it: (Mgh, TA:) whence the saying, in a trad., إِنَّ حَابِيًا خَيْرٌ مِنْ زَاهِقٍ [expl. in art. حبو].

(K.) b2: And, applied to marrow, Compact and full: (S, TA:) or, so applied, good in respect of fatness: and some say, i. q. رَارٌ [i. e. in a melting state, or corrupt, by reason of emaciation; or thin; &c.]: so that [thus applied also] it bears two contr. meanings. (JK.) In the saying of a rájiz, (S, TA,) namely, 'Omárah Ibn-Tárik, (TA,) وَمَسَدٍ أُمِرَّ مِنْ أَيَانِقِ لَسْنَ بِأَنْيَابٍ وَلَا حَقَائِقِ وَلَا ضِعَافٍ مُخُّهُنَّ زَاهِقُ accord. to Fr, it is in the nom. case, the poetry being what is termed مُكْفَأ, [by which is here meant having one rhyme made to end with kesreh (which is substituted for fet-hah by poetic license) and another with dammeh,] the poet meaning [And a rope, or many a rope, tightly twisted, of the fur of she-camels, that were not aged ones, nor such as had their teeth fallen out by reason of extreme age, nor weak,] but whose marrow was compact and full: [or, agreeably with an explanation given above from the JK, زاهق may mean in a melting state, &c.:] another explanation is, that زاهق here means ذَاهِب [going away]: (S, TA:) but, as Sgh says, the [right] reading is عِيسٍ عِتَاقٍ ذَاتِ مُخٍّ زَاهِقِ [meaning but of a reddish, or yellowish, or dingy, white hue, of generous race, having compact and full marrow]. (TA.) أُزْهُوقَةٌ sing. of أَزَاهِيق in the phrase فَرَسٌ ذَاتُ

أًزَاهِيقَ (tropical:) A mare having wonderful, or admirable, qualities in running: (A, TA:) or this means a mare having a swift running. (S, K.) b2: One says also, جَآءَ تِ الخَيْلُ أَزَاهِقَ and أَزَاهِيقَ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [The horses, or horsemen, came] in troops in a state of dispersion.
