And you say, اِفْعَلْ ذٰلِكَ رَهْوًا Do thou that quietly, or calmly. (S.)

(TA.) b5: أَرْهِ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ Be gentle with, or to, thyself: (S, K, TA;) [in the CK ارْهُ; and (hence, perhaps,) thus in the printed edition of Har, p. 498; where it is said to be from رها فى السير, meaning رفق: but the right reading is أَرْهِ, for] one says also مَا أَرْهَيْتَ إِلَّا عَلَى
