(M, TA.) [See بُسْرٌ.]

4 اشفى عَلَيْهِ He was, or became, on the brink of it; (S, Msb, K, TA;) namely, a thing; and death: (S, Msb:) mostly used in relation to evil, but also in relation to good: so says IKtt. (TA.)

A3: اشفاهُ He gave him a remedial medicine. (Az, TA.) And He prescribed for him a remedy in which should be his recovery, or restoration to convalescence. (TA.) And أَشْفَيْتُكَ الشَّىْءَ (S, K *)

I gave thee the thing in order that thou shouldst attain, or seek, recovery, or restoration to convalescence, thereby. (S: in two copies thereof, بِهِ ↓ تَشْتَفِى: in two other copies thereof, and in like manner in the K, بِهِ ↓ تَسْتَشْفِى.) And اشفاهُ

اللّٰهُ عَسَلًا God made honey to be his remedy. (AO, S: and the like is said by IKtt as cited in the TA.)

b2: See also 1, last sentence.

b3: اشفى also signifies (assumed tropical:) He gave [a person] something. (TA.)

And تشفّى مِنْ عَدُوِّهِ, (T, TA,) or بِالعَدُوِّ, and به ↓ اشتفى, (Msb,) (assumed tropical:) He inflicted injury upon his enemy [or the enemy] in a manner that rejoiced him [or relieved him from his anger]: (T, TA:) [or he attained what he desired from his enemy or the enemy, and so appeased his anger:] because latent anger is like a disease; and when it departs by reason of that which one seeks to obtain from his enemy, he is as though he became free, or recovered, from his disease. (Msb.)

6 تَشَافَيْتُ المَآءَ a phrase mentioned by IAar as meaning I exhausted the water: said by ISd to be originally تَشَافَفْتُ. (TA in art. شف.)

8 اشتفى بِكَذَا (S, K, TA) He attained recovery, or restoration to convalescence, by means of such a thing: (TA;) and so ↓ تشفّى: (TK:) and مِنْ عِلَّتِهِ ↓ استشفى [if not a mistranscription for اشتفى] he became free from his disease, sickness, or malady; recovered from it; or became convalescent. (TA.) See 4, latter part.

10 استشفى He sought, or demanded, a remedy, or cure. (TA.) See 4, latter part.

b2: And see also 8.

شَفًا The point or extremity, verge, brink, or edge, of anything; (S, Msb, K, &c.;) like ↓ شَفَةٌ; for شَفَا الحُفْرَةِ (Ksh in iii. 99) or شَفَا البِئْرِ (Bd ibid.) and شَفَتُهَا both signify the same, (Ksh, Bd,) i. e. حَرْفُهَا (Ksh) or طَرَفُهَا; (Bd;) but the final و in the former is changed into ا, and in the latter [accord. to those who hold شَفَةٌ to be originally شَفْوَةٌ] it is elided; (Ksh, Bd;) شَفًا being originally شَفَوٌ: (Bd:) [but شَفًا generally signifies as expl.

above; and شَفَةٌ almost always signifies the “ lip ” of a human being:] the dual is شَفَوَانِ; this being known, as Akh says, by the fact that إِمَالَة in the word شَفًا is not allowable: (S:) and the pl. is أَشْفَآءٌ. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [iii. 99], وَكُنْتُمْ عَلَى شَفَا حُفْرَةٌ مِنَ النَّارِ فَأَنْقَذَكُمْ مِنْهَا [and ye were on the verge, or brink, of a pit of the fire of Hell, and He saved, or rescued, you from it]. (S.) And one says, هُوَ عَلَى شَفَا الهَلَاكِ (tropical:) [He is on the brink of destruction]. (TA.)

b2: Also (tropical:) A little; (S, A, K, TA;) a small part, or portion; somewhat; (A, TA;) somewhat remaining of the moon when near the change, (K, TA, [الهَلاك in the CK is erroneously put for الهِلَال,]) and of the sight (البَصَر), and of the day, and the like, as in the T. (TA.) One says of a man on the occasion of his dying, and of the moon at [the last period of the month called] its مُحَاق, and of the sun at its setting, (S,) مَا بَقِىَ مِنْهُ إِلَّا شَفًا [and مِنْهَا when

said of the sun] (assumed tropical:) There has not remained of him, or it, save a little: (S, K: *) and [in like manner]

مِنَ العُمُرِ [of life]. (S.) And one says, أَتَيْتُهُ

بِشَفًا مِنْ ضَوْءِ الشَّمْسِ (assumed tropical:) [I came to him in a time when there was little remaining of the light of the sun]. (TA.) El-'Ajjáj says, أَشْرَفْتُهُ بِلَا شَفًا أَوْ بِشَفَا وَمِرْبَأٍ عَالٍ لِمَنٌ تَشَرَّفَا

meaning [Many an elevated place of observation, high to him who ascends it, I have ascended]

when the sun had set or when there was somewhat of it remaining. (S.) One says also, صَارَ فِى شَفَا

القَمَرِ meaning (assumed tropical:) He was, or became, in the last part of the night. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., (in relation to [the temporary marriage termed]

المُتْعَة,) فَلَوْ لَا نَهْيُهُ عَنْهَا مَا احْتَاجَ إِلَى الزِّنَا إِلَّا شَفًا, accord. to the T meaning [Were it not for his (i. e. God's) forbidding it, none would need having recourse to fornication,] save a small number of men: (T, TA:) or, accord. to 'Atà, it means, but would be on the brink thereof, without falling into it; شَفًا being thus used in the place of the inf. n. إِشْفَآء: so says IAth, as from Az. (TA.)

شَفَةٌ, in which the deficient letter is و, (K, TA,) for it has for pl. شَفَوَاتٌ, (TA,) or ه, (K, TA,) for it has [also] for pl. شِفَاهٌ, (TA,) has been mentioned before, (K, TA,) in art. شفه [q. v.]. (TA.)

b2: See also شَفًا above, first sentence.

شِفَآءٌ, (K, TA,) like كِسَآءٌ, (TA,) [in the CK erroneously written شَفاء,] primarily signifies The becoming free from disease, sickness, or malady; recovering therefrom; or becoming convalescent:

b2: and then, Medical, or curative, treatment: (TA:) the giving of health; (KL:) inf. n. of شَفَاهُ

[q. v.]: (S, Msb, TA:)

b3: and [then], (TA,) A medicine, or remedy: pl. أَشْفِيَةٌ, and pl. pl. أَشَافٍ. (K, TA.) [Hence, دَارُ الشِفَآءِ The hospital.]

A2: Also A man whose lips do not close together: fem. شَفْيَآءُ. (TA.) See أَشْفَهُ, in art. شفه.

إِشْفًى An instrument for perforating; (K;) a thing pertaining to the makers or sewers of boots or shoes or sandals &c.; (S;) [i. e.] the awl used by them: (MA, KL:) and the instrument with which leather, or skin, is sewed: (Mgh, K:) or, accord. to ISk, it is [an instrument used] for water-skins and water-bags and the like; and the مِخْصَف is for sandals: (S:) [see also art. اشف:] masc. and fem.: (K, * TA:) pl. أَشَافٍ. (Mgh, TA.)

b2: Th mentions the saying, إِنْ لَاطَمْتَهُ

لَاطَمْتَ الــإِشْفَى [if thou contend with him in slapping, thou wilt do so with the اشفى]; meaning that when one does so, it will be against himself. (TA.)

(S.) b3: Also (assumed tropical:) Fresh milk upon which is poured رَائِب [i.e. curdled, or thick, or churned, milk]: (S, K:) if dates and clarified butter are put into it, it is [termed] عَوْبَثَانِىٌّ.

And كَلَّمَهُ مُشَافَهَةً (Msb, TA) and مُشَافَاةً (Msb) He spoke to him putting his lip near to his lip: (TA:) [or mouth to mouth; for,] accord. to J, (TA,) مُشَافَهَةٌ signifies the talking with another mouth to mouth: (S, TA:) but the usage of the inf. n. of a verb different from that which it is thus made to qualify is, as Sb says, restricted to instances that have been heard: the phrase كَلَّمَهُ مُفَاوَهَةً [has not been heard, and therefore] is not allowable.

(TA in art. شفى.) مَشْفُوهٌ (tropical:) A water at which there are many lips (شِفَاه TA, and Har p. 669,) of those coming to drink, (Har,) so that it has become little in quantity; (TA;) or water at which are many people: (S, K: *) or water that is sought: or, as some say, forbidden to those who come to drink of it because of its being little in quantity.

(A 'Obeyd.) If we read الكلابُ, the meaning is The dogs are upon, or against, the wild oxen: and in like manner, if we read الكرابُ, the meaning is “ The turning over of the soil is the work of the oxen: ” if الكرابَ, “ Leave the turning over of the soil to the oxen. ” (MF, from expositions of the Fs.) b5: [كَلْبٌ كَلِبٌ seems also to signify A fierce, or furious, dog.

(TA.) Accord. to El-Mufaddal, it originates from a disease which befalls the standing corn &c., and which is not removed until the sun rises upon it: if cattle eat of it before that, they die: wherefore Mohammad forbade pasturing by night: but sometimes a camel runs away, and eats of such pasture before sunrise, and dies in consequence: then a dog comes, and eats of its flesh, and becomes mad; and if it bite a man, he also becomes mad, and when he hears the barking of a dog, answers it [by barking].

S) by the disease called كُلَابٌ, barking like a dog, reading his clothes upon himself. wounding others, and at last dying of thirst, refusing to drink. (Lth.) b3: A man thus affected is termed كَلِبٌ and ↓ كَلِيبٌ: pl. of the former كَلِبُونَ, and of the latter (or of the former accord. to the S) كَلْبَى. (TA.)

(A.) b6: دَهْرٌ كَلِبٌ (tropical:) Fortune that presses severely and injuriously upon its subjects. (TA.) b7: كَلِبٌ A tree of which the leaves are rough, in consequence of its not having sufficient watering, without losing their moisture, so that they catch to the garments of those who pass by, thus annoying them like a dog. (ADk.) كَلْبَةٌ (assumed tropical:) A thorny tree, destitute of branches: (K:) so called because it catches to [the garments of] those who pass by it, like a dog: (TA:) a rugged tree, with branches standing out apart, and tough thorns. (TA.) b2: A small thorny plant, of the kind called شِرْس, resembling the شكاعا [or شُكَاعَى, or شُكَاعَة], of the description termed ذُكُور: (TA:) or a certain thorny tree, (K,) of the kind called عِضَاه, having [what is termed]

(S, K.) b2: حَدِيدَةٌ ذَاتُ كَلْبَتَيْنِ [An iron with two curved ends, forming a forceps]. You also say حَدِيدَتَانِ ذَوَاتَا كلبتين, and حَدَائِدُ ذَوَاتُ كلبتين. (TA.) كُلْبَةٌ The shop of a vintner. (AHn, K.) A2: The hairs that grow upon each side of the fore part of the nose and mouth of a dog or cat: (Z, K:) wrongly explained as signifying the nails of a dog. (Z.) A3: A thong, or a strand (طَاقَة) of the fibres of the palm-tree (لِيف), with which skins and the like are sewed: (K, TA:) [see إِقْتَفَأَ:] or a thong, or [so in the O and in the TA, art. قفأ; but here, in the latter, instead of “ or, ” “ behind, ” which is evidently a mistake;] a strand (طَاقَة) of the fibres of the palm-tree, used in the same manner as the shoe-maker's awl that has, at its head, a perforation ثَقْبٌ [so in the O, in the TA حجر a strange mistranscription: what is meant is doubtless an eye, like that of a needle, and it is by means of an implement with an eye at the end that the operation here described is commonly performed in the present day:] the thong, or the thread, or string, is inserted into the كلبة, which is doubled: thus it enters the place [or hole] of the sewing, and the sewer introduces his hand into the إِدَاوَة [q.v., i. e., the vessel upon which he is employed in working], and stretches the thong of leather, or the thread, or string, (O, L, TA,) in the كلبة. (L, TA.) [See كَلَبَ.]

كَلَابٌ [perhaps inf. n. of كُلِبَ] The departure of reason by the kind of madness termed كَلَب. (K.) كُلَابٌ: see كَلَبٌ.

كَلِيبٌ: see كَلْبٌ and كَلِبٌ. b2: Respecting this word in the following verse of TaäbbataSharran, إِذَا الحَرْبُ أَوْلَتْكَ الكَلِيبَ فَوَلِّهَا كَلِيبَكَ وَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهَا سَوْفَ تَنْجَلِى

[When war sets over thee &c.] there are two opinions: one, that by كليب is meant مُكَالِب (see 2): the other, that it is an inf. n. of كَلِبَتِ الحَرْبُ [“ The war became vehement, severe, or fierce ”]: the former is the more valid. (IM.) كَلَّابٌ: see كَلْبٌ and مُكَلِّبٌ.

كُلَّابٌ (S, K) and ↓ كَلُّوبٌ (K) A spur; (S, K;) the iron instrument that is in the boot of him who breaks in a horse.

كَلْتَبَانٌ A pimp: from كَلِبَ, q. v., (As, IAar, K) Sb, however, does not mention the measure فَعْتَلَانٌ. ISd thinks it most probable that كَلِبَ is a triliteral-radical, and كلتبان a quadriliteralradical [or rather a quasi-quadriliteral-radical], like زَرِمَ and إِزْرَأَمّ &c. (L.) See also قَرْطَبَانٌ and قَلْتَبَانٌ, and art. كلتب.

(S.) مُتَكَالِبٌ an appellation given by the people of El-Yemen to (tropical:) A deputy, or an agent; because of his acting injuriously, or contentiously, towards them over whom he is appointed as such. (TA.)

نيب

1 نَابَهُ, aor. ـِ He hit him on his ناب, i. e., his canine tooth. (S, K.) 2 نيّب السَّهْمَ He bit the wood of the arrow, to know whether it were strong or weak, and made an impression upon it with his canine tooth. (S, K.) b2: نيّب فِيهِ He (a beast of prey) made an impression upon him with his canine tooth: he fixed his canine teeth in him. (TA) b3: نيّبت She (a camel) became extremely old: (Lh, S, K:) became what is termed a ناب. (A.) b4: نيّب and ↓ تنيّب (assumed tropical:) It (a plant) put forth its root. (K.) Also signifying the same with reference to white, or hoary hair. The root is thought by ISd to be thus likened to a canine tooth. (TA.) b5: ظَفَّر فُلَانٌ فِى كَذَا وَنَيَّبَ (tropical:) Such a one clung to, caught to, or took fast hold upon, such a thing: [lit., stuck his nails and dog-teeth into it]. (A.) See also ظَفَّرَ.5 تَنَيَّبَ see 2.

نَابٌ [originally نَيَبٌ, The canine tooth, or dog-tooth; or eye-tooth; the tusk, or tush; or the fang; of certain animals:] one of the teeth; (S;) the tooth that is [next] behind the رَبَاعِيَة, [or next but one to the central pair of incisors:] (M, K.) [In this sense, the word is masc.:] the tooth thus called is mase., when thus called: [though if you call it سِنٌّ (???)] but ناب when fem. signifies “ an old she-camel ” (Msb:) or, accord. to the M and K, it is fem. only in each of the above senses without distinction. (TA.) Sb says, that the Arabs observed the pronunciation termed imáleh (إِمَالَة) in the case of ناب in the nom. [as well as in the acc. and gen., in which latter case this pronunciation is agreeable with analogy on account of the final kesreh,] likening its (tropical:) to that in رَمَى, [in which it is expressed in writing by ى,] because it is changed from ى: but this is extr. That is, this pronunciation of (tropical:) changed from ى or و is only observed [regularly] when the said ا is a final radical letter; and specially in verbs: the instances of this kind that occur in nouns are extr.; and more (???) are these in which the ا changed from ى is a medial radical letter. (TA.) [But the restriction to the case of verbs is inconsistent with what is said by Ibn-Málik and other high authorities: and so, too, is the restriction to the case of a final radical letter.] Pl. أَنْيُبٌ (Lh, K) and أَنْيَابٌ [both pls. of pauc.: but the latter is used as a pl. of mult.:] and نُيُوبٌ; (S, K;) the latter contr. to analogy, (S,) because [نَابٌ is originally نَيَبٌ, and] a word of the measure فَعَلٌ does not [regularly] assume the measure فَعُولٌ in the pl.; (TA;) to which should be added نِيُوبٌ, a dial. var., as in the case of every pl. of the measure فُعُولٌ of which the medial radical letter is ى: (M, F:) and pl. pl. أَنَايِيبُ. (K, TA.) Ibn-Seenà says that no animal has both a ناب and a horn. (Msb.) b2: نَابٌ An aged she-camel: (S, K:) not applied to a male camel: (S;) so called because of the length of her lush; (S;) by synedoche; the whole being called by the name of a part: (TA:) as also ↓ نَيُوبٌ; (K;) accord. to some copies of the K, نَيَّوبٌ; but this is a mistake: (TA:) pl. of the former أَنْيَابٌ and نُيُوبٌ (K) and نِيبٌ: (S, K:) or these are pls. of both the former of sing. (K. accord. to some copies; and TA.) Sb is of opinion that نِيبٌ is pl. of ناب, and says that the Arabs have made it of the measure فُعْلٌ [as it is said to be in the S, for it is originally نُيْبٌ like as they have the pl. of دَارٌ, disliking the sound of نُيُوبٌ, because the ى is with dammeh, and preceded by dammeh, and followed by و. It is also said to be pl. of ↓ نَيُوبٌ; as it is related, on the authority of Yoo, that certain of the Arabs say صِيدٌ and بِيضٌ, as pls. of صَيُودٌ and بَيُوضٌ, agreeably with the dial. of those who say رُسْلٌ [instead of رُسُلٌ]; namely, the tribe of Temeem but their not saying نُيُبٌ, like as they say صُيُدٌ and بُيُضٌ, is an argument in favour of the opinion of Sb. b3: لَا أَفْعَلُ ذٰلِكَ مَا حَنَّتِ النِّيبُ [I will not do that as long as aged she-camels yearn towards their young ones i. e., I will never do it]. A proverb. (S.) b4: The dim. of نَابٌ is نُيَيْبٌ, without ة, because ناب, as applied to an aged she-camel, is like an epithet: (S:) or rather this formation of the dim. without ناب is a dev. from constant rule. (MF.) Sh says, that some of the Arabs make the dim. of ناب to be ثُوَيْبٌ, because many an ا such as that in ناب is changed from و: [or rather, this is generally the case:] but this, says Ibn-Es-Sarráj is an error on his part [who does (???) (S.) This apparently means, that Ibn-EsSarráj accuses Sh of an error; but such is not the case: for Sb himself says “ but this is an error on their part; ” i. e., on the part of the Arabs who say نويب for نييب (IB.) b5: نَابُ قَوْمٍ (tropical:) The lord, master, or chief, of a people: (S, K:) pl. أَنْيَابٌ. (TA.) b6: عَضَّتْهُ أَنْيَابُ الدَّهْرِ, and نُيُوبُهُ, [(tropical:) The dog-teeth of fortune bit him]. (A.) b7: انياب are likewise met. assigned to evil, or mischief. (TA.) نَيُوبٌ: see نَاب.

نُيَّبٌ [as though pl. of نَائِبٌ or نَائِبَةٌ] an epithet added to نُيُوبٌ as signifying “ canine teeth. ” to render the signification intensive, or energetic. (TA.) أَنْيَبُ Having a large, or thick, canine tooth, (K,) that does not bite a thing without breaking it. (Th.)

قفأ

قف

أ1 قَفِئَتِ الأَرْضُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. قَفْءٌ, The land was rained upon, and its herbage became altered and spoiled thereby: (K:) or قَفْءٌ [the inf. n.] signifies the falling of dust upon the herbs, or leguminous plants, (AHn, K, TA,) in consequence of which they are spoiled if the dust be not washed off. (AHn, TA.) [See فَقَأَت as said of the بُهْمَى.]8 اقتفأ الخَرْزَ is said in the K to be syn. with افتقأهُ, [q. v.,] and is expl. by Lh as meaning He repeated the [kind of sewing termed] خَرْز [i. e. the sewing of skins and the like by means of an awl], and added, between the two kulbehs, another kulbeh, as is done with reed-mats when they are re-sewed. (TA.) [The kulbeh (كُلْبَة, q. v.) is here described as a thong, or a strand (طَاقَة) of [the membranous fibres that grow at the base of the branches of the palm-tree and are called]

لِيف, used in the same manner as the shoemaker's awl, &c., as in art. كلب, q. v.; but what is here meant by this word is evidently, I think, a thong, or the like, with which a skin is sewed, agreeably with another explanation of it in art. كلب.]
