سنف

1 سَنَفَ البَعِيرَ, aor. ـِ and سَنُفَ, (S, M, K,) inf. n. سَنْفٌ; (M, K;) and ↓ اسنقهُ; (S, * M, K;) or, accord. to As, the latter only; (S;) He bound the سِنَاف [q. v.] upon the camel: (S, M, K:) and the latter, he put to him (i. e. the camel), or made for him, a سِنَاف; (K, TA;) thus expl. by El-'Ozeyzee. (TA.) [Hence, accord. to some,] one says, in a prov., of a person confounded or perplexed, and unable to see his right course, in his affair, ↓ عَىَّ بِالإِسْنَافِ, (S, Meyd,) meaning He was confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course, by reason of fright, like him who knows not where to bind the سِنَاف: (Z, TA:) it originated from the fact of a man's being thus confounded, or perplexed: (Meyd:) a poet says, (namely, Ibn-Kulthoom, TA,) إِذَا مَا عَىَّ بِالإِسْنَافِ قَوْمٌ مِنَ الأَمْرِ المُشَبَّهِ أَنْ يَكُونَا [as though meaning When a people are unable to find the right way to bind the سناف, in consequence of the affair that is uncertain to be: (thus related by Meyd; but in the TA with حَىٌّ in the place of قوم, and عَلَى in the place of من:)] Az, however, says that this is not the meaning: that الاسناف here signifies the advancing, or preceding; and that the meaning is, are unable to find the right way of advancing, or preceding; (Meyd, TA;) from أَسْنَفَ said of a horse, expl. below. (TA.) A2: See also the next paragraph.4 اسنف, inf. n. إِسْنَافٌ: see above, in two places. b2: Hence, i. e. from this verb in the sense expl. in the first sentence, (S, TA,) اسنف أَمْرَهُ (tropical:) He performed his affair skilfully, soundly, or thoroughly. (S, M, K, TA.) A2: Also He (a horse) preceded the other horses: (S, TA:) and اسنفت she (a camel) preceded the other camels (K, TA) in going, or journeying, or pace; (TA;) as also ↓ سَنَفَتْ. (K, TA.) [See the verse cited in the preceding paragraph, and the explanation of it by Az.] Said of a camel, it means also He put forward his neck, to go on: (K, TA:) or he advanced, or preceded. (TA.) b2: Said of lightning, It appeared, or was seen, near; and so said of the clouds (السَّحَاب). (K.) b3: And اسنفت الر ِّيحُ The wind blew violently, and raised the dust. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) سَنْفٌ: see the next paragraph.

سِنْفٌ A leaf; (M, and so in copies of the K, and in the TA;) or leaves: (so in other copies of the K:) pl. سِنْفٌ; thus in the copies of the K, [like the sing.,] but this requires consideration; and it seems that it is سُنُوفٌ, a pl. assigned to سِنْفٌ in a sense that will be mentioned in what follows: (TA:) [or the pl. is سِنَفَةٌ, likewise mentioned, as a pl. of سِنْفٌ, in what follows, in three places:] also (K) the leaf of the [tree called]

مَرْخ: (AA, S, O, K:) or the pericarp of the مَرْخ: (S, M, O, K:) this, says IB, is the correct meaning, as those acquainted with the مرخ affirm; for, as 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh says, the مرخ has not leaves, nor thorns, but consists of slender twigs; it grows in [water-courses such as are termed] شُعَب: (TA:) a poet likens thereto the ears of horses: (S:) the pl. is سِنَفَةٌ: (M:) or the pericarps of any tree having a produce consisting of grains in a long pod, (AHn, O, K,) that become scattered, when they dry, from that pod, the shale thereof remaining; (AHn, O;) one such pod is termed ↓ سِنْفَةٌ; (AHn, O, K;) and the pl. [or coll. gen. n.] is سِنْفٌ; (K;) and this last has for its pl. سِنَفَةٌ: (AHn, O, K:) Aboo-Ziyád says that it is like [the pod of] the بَاقِلَّى [or bean], except that it is wider, and pointed at the extremity; wherefore a poet likens thereto the ear of a horse: (O:) or, accord. to AHn, ↓ سِنْفَةٌ signifies any pericarp, whether oblong or not oblong; and the pl. [or coll. gen. n.] is سِنْفٌ; and the pl. of سِنْفٌ is سِنَفَةٌ: (M:) [see also حُبْلَةٌ:] and the shale of the [bean called]

بَاقِلَّآء, and of the [species of kidney-bean called]

لُوبِيَآء, and of the lentil, and the like; (IAar, TA;) or the shale of the first of these three when what was in it has been eaten; (K;) and the pl. is سُنُوفٌ. (IAar, TA.) b2: Also, (K,) or ↓ سَنْفٌ, with fet-h, (IAar, O, L,) A branch, or twig, (عُودٌ,) stripped of its leaves. (IAar, O, L, K.) b3: And the former, The [grain called] دَوْسَر [i. e.

زُؤَان, q. v.,] which is sometimes in wheat and barley, (O, K,) and which vitiates them, and lowers their prices. (O.) A2: Also i. q. صِنْفٌ [A sort, or species]. (K.) One says, هٰذَا طَعَامٌ سِنْفَانِ [This is food, or wheat,] of two sorts, good and bad. (AA, O.) b2: And A company of men. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) One says, جَآءَنِى سِنْفٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ A company of men came to me. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) سِنْفَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

سُنْفَتَانِ and سَنْفَتَانِ Two pieces of wood set upright, between which is put the [pulley called]

مَحَالَة [by means whereof water is drawn.] (K.) سِنَافٌ The [breast-girth called] لَبَب: (K:) or the appertenance of the camel that is as the لَبَب to the horse or similar beast: (Kh, S:) or a cord which you tie to the تَصْدِير [or breast-girth of the camel], then you bring it forward so as to put it behind the callous protuberance upon the breast, [and there, app., make it fast in some manner,] and it keeps the تصدير in its place: (As, S, O, K:) this is done only when the belly of the camel has become lank, and his تصدير has [consequently] become unsteady: (S, O, K: *) or a cord that is tied from the hind girth of the camel to his breast-girth and is then tied to his neck, when he has become lank: (M:) pl. [of mult.]

سُنُفٌ (M, K) and سُنْفٌ (K) and [of pauc.] أَسْنِفَةٌ: (TA:) and a leathern strap or thong, or some other thing, that is put behind the [breast-girth called] لَبَب, in order that it may not slip [from its place]. (M.) سَنُوفٌ A horse that shifts the saddle forwards. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) [See also مِسْنَافٌ.]

سَنِيفٌ A cloth that is put, (AA, O, K,) or tied, (M,) upon the shoulders of the camel: pl. سُنُفٌ (AA, M, O, K) and سُنْفٌ: (K:) the cloths that are similarly placed upon the hinder parts of camels are called أَشِلَّةٌ [pl. of شَلِيلٌ]. (AA, O.) b2: Also The حَاشِيَة [properly meaning selvage, or selvedge,] of a carpet; (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K;) i. e., its خَمْل [which generally means nap; but this addition I think doubtful]. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) مُسْنَفَةٌ A she-camel having the سِنَاف [q. v.] tied upon her. (S, TA.) b2: And خَيْلٌ مُسْنَفَاتٌ Horses having the [withers, or parts called] مَنَاسِج high, or elevated: denoting a quality approved in them; for it is only in the best, and the generous, thereof: and when they are thus, the saddles recede upon their backs; wherefore the سِنَاف is put to them, to keep the saddles in their places. (M.) مُسْنِفَةٌ A mare, (S, M, K,) and a she-camel, (M,) preceding others in going, or journeying, or pace; (S, M, K;) as also ↓ مِسْنَافٌ: (M:) and مَسَانِيفٌ [being pl. of the latter] signifies the same; and is applied to camels: (Th, TA:) or [so in the K, but more properly “ and ”] مُسْنَفَةٌ, with fet-h to the ن is specially applied to the she-camel, (K, TA,) in the sense first assigned to it above: (TA:) or مُسْنِفَةٌ, (K, TA,) with kesr to the ن, (TA,) signifies a [youthful she-camel such as is termed] بَكْرَة that has completed the tenth month of her pregnancy, and whose udder has become swollen. (Ibn-'Abbád, K, TA,) b2: Also, (El-'Ozeyzee, O, K,) or مُسْنِفٌ and ↓ مِسْنَافٌ, (AA, M,) applied to a she-camel, Lean, or light of flesh, (AA, El-'Ozeyzee, M, O, K,) or lank in the belly. (AA, M.) b3: And مُسْنِفَةٌ signifies also Land affected with drought, barrenness, or dearth: (El-'Ozeyzee, O, K:) or a year of drought, barrenness, or dearth: [thus expl. as a subst., or an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant:] pl. مَسَانِفُ. (AHn, M.) مِسْنَافٌ (tropical:) A camel that makes the saddle to shift backwards; (S, M, K, TA;) wherefore a سِنَاف is put to him: (S, TA:) and, (K,) or as some say, (S,) that makes it to shift forwards: (S, K, TA:) so says Lth: but ISh disallows his explanation, saying that it means a she-camel that makes the load to shift forwards; and that مِجْنَأَةٌ [a word which I have not found anywhere except in this instance] signifies the contrary: (TA:) or that makes her fore girth to slip forward; contr. of مُدْرِجٌ and مِدْرَاجٌ. (TA in art. درج.) b2: See also مُسْنِفَةٌ, in two places.

سوك

1 سَاكَ الشَّىْءَ, (IDrd, O, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. سُوْكٌ, (IDrd, O, Msb,) He rubbed the thing, or rubbed it well. (IDrd, O, Msb, K.) b2: See also 2.

A2: And see 6.2 سوّك فَاهُ, (S, O, Msb,) or سوّك فَمَهُ بِالعُودِ, (K,) inf. n. تَسْوِيكٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) and ↓ سَاكَهُ, (O, K,) aor. and inf. n. as in the first paragraph, (O,) or inf. n. سِوَاكٌ; (Msb; [there said to be an inf. n., as well as a subst. syn. with مِسْوَاكٌ, but without the mention of its verb;]) and ↓ استاك and ↓ تسوَك, these two used without the mention of the mouth (S, O, Msb, K) or the stick; (K;) [He rubbed and cleaned his teeth with the سِوَاك, or مِسْوَاك.]5 تَسَوَّكَ see the next preceding paragraph.6 تَسَاوُكٌ and سِوَاكٌ [each an inf. n., the verb of the latter, if it have one, being app. ↓ سَاكَ,] A weak manner of going: or a bad manner of going, resulting from slowness or emaciation: (K, TA:) so says ISk. (TA.) One says, جَآءَتِ الإِبِلُ تَسَاوَكُ, [for تَتَسَاوَكُ,] i. e. The camels came inclining from side to side, in consequence of weakness, in their going along. (S, O.) [Or]

تساوكت الإِبِلُ means The camels had an agitation of their necks in consequence of leanness. (IF, Msb.) In the M it is said that جَآءَت الغَنَمُ مَاتَسَاوَكُ means The sheep, or goats, came, not moving their heads, in consequence of weakness. (TA.) 8 إِسْتَوَكَ see 2.

سِوَاكٌ and ↓ مِسْوَاكٌ signify the same; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) i. e. A tooth-stick; a piece of stick with which the teeth are rubbed [and cleaned, the end being made like a brush by beating or chewing it so as to separate the fibres]; (K, * TA;) [commonly] a piece of stick of the [kind of tree called] أَرَاك: (Msb:) accord. to IDrd, derived from سُكْتُ الشَّىْءَ meaning “ I rubbed, or rubbed well, the thing; ” (O, Msb;) accord. to IF, from تساوكت الإِبِلُ [expl. above]: (Msb:) accord. to Lth, (T, TA,) سِوَاكٌ is masc. and fem., (IDrd, T, M, O, K,) though it is the more approvable way to make it masc.; (O;) but Az holds this to be a mistake, and the word to be masc. [only]; and Hr says that this assertion of Lth is one of his foul mistakes: (TA:) its pl. is سُوُكٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and سُوْكٌ (Az, TA) and سُؤُكٌ, (AHn, TA,) and [of pauc.] أَسْوِكَةٌ; and the pl. of ↓ مِسْوَاكٌ is مَسَاوِيكُ. (TA.) In the saying, in a trad., خَيْرُ خِلَالِ الصَّائِمِ السِّوَاكُ, a prefixed n. is [said to be] suppressed [so that the meaning is The best of the habits, or customs, of the faster is the use of the tooth-stick: but see 2, where سِوَاكٌ is said, on the authority of the Msb, to be also an inf. n.].

مِسْوَاكٌ: see سِوَاكٌ, in two places.

شي

أ1 شَآءَهُ, (Msb,) [originally شَيِئَهُ,] like خَافَهُ, [which is originally خَوِفَهُ,] (MF,) first. Pers\.

شِئْتُهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb,) [and by poetic license يَشَاهُ, without ء,] first Pers\. أَشَاؤُهُ, (S. K,) inf. n. شَىْءٌ (Msb, K) and مَشِيْئَةٌ, (S, * K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and مَشَآءَةٌ and مَشَائِيَةٌ, (K,) [or these two also are simple substs.,] He, and I, willed, wished, or desired, it; syn. أَرَادَهُ (Msb) and أَرَدْتُهُ: (S, * K:) most of the scholastic theologians make no difference between المَشِيْئَةُ and الإِرَادَةُ, though they are [said to be] originally different; for the former, in the proper language, signifies the causing to be or exist, syn. الإِيجَادُ; and the latter, the willing, wishing, or desiring; syn. الطَّلَبُ. (TA.) A Jew objected, to the Prophet, his people's saying مَا شَآءَ اللّٰهُ وَشِئْتُ [What God hath willed and I have willed], as implying the association of another being with God: therefore the Prophet ordered them to say مَا شَآءَ اللّٰهُ ثُمَّ شِئْتُ [What God hath willed, then I have willed]. (TA.) [مَا شَآءَ اللّٰهُ as signifying What hath God willed! is used to express admiration. And as signifying What God willed it is a phrase often used to denote a vague, generally a great or considerable, but sometimes a small, number or quantity or time: See De Sacy's Relation de l'Égypte par Abdallatif, pp.246 and 394 &c.]

A2: See also 1 in art. شوأ.2 شَيَّأْتُهُ عَلَى الأَمْرِ [in some copies of the K (erroneously) شِئْتُهُ] I incited him, or made him, to do the thing, or affair. (As, S, L, K, TA.) A2: And شَيَّأَ اللّٰهُ وَجْهَهُ, (K, TA,) and خَلْقَهُ, (TA,) God rendered, or may God render, foul, unseemly, or ugly, his face, (K, TA,) and his make. (TA.) 4 أَشَآءَهُ إِلَيْهِ He, or it, compelled him, constrained him, or necessitated him, to have recourse, or betake himself, to it; syn. أَلْجَأَهُ; (S, K;) a dial. var. of أَجَآءَهُ; (S;) of the dial. of Temeem. (TA.) Temeem say, شَرٌّ مَا يُشِيؤُكَ إِلَى مُخَّةِ عُرْقُوبٍ, meaning يُجِيؤُكَ [q. v., i. e. It is an evil thing that compels thee to have recourse to the marrow of a hock]. (S.) 5 تشيّأ His anger became appeased: (K:) said of a man. (TA.) شَىْءٌ [A thing; anything; something; somewhat;] a word of well-known meaning: (K:) [sometimes, in poetry, written and pronounced شَىٌّ: see an ex. in a verse cited voce صُؤَابَةٌ: see also the last sentence but one of this paragraph:] الشَّىْءُ properly signifies what may be known, and that whereof a thing may be predicated: (Mgh, KT:) accord. to Sb, it denotes existence, and is a name for anything that has been made to have being, whether an accident, or attribute, or a substance, and such that it may be known, and that a thing may be predicated thereof: (KT:) MF says that it is app. an inf. n. used in the sense of a pass. part. n., meaning what is willed, and meant, or intended, [in which sense ↓ مَشِيْئَةٌ (pl. مَشِيْآتٌ) is often used,] without restriction to its actuality or possibility of being, so that it applies to that which necessarily is, and that which may be, and that which cannot be; accord. to the opinion adopted by the author of the Ksh: [or, as an inf. n. in the sense of a pass. part. n., it may be expl., agreeably with what is said to be the proper meaning of the verb, as signifying what is caused to be or exist; accordingly,] Er-Rághib says that it denotes whatever is caused to be or exist, whether sensibly, as material substances, or ideally, as sayings; and Bd and others expressly assert that it signifies peculiarly what is caused to be or exist; but Sb says that it is the most general of general terms; and some of the scholastic theologians apply it to what is non-existent; such, however, are overcome in their argument by its not being found to have been thus used by the Arabs, and by such passages as كُلُّ شَىْءٍ هَالِكٌ إِلَّا وَجْهَهُ [Everything is subject to perish except Himself (Kur xxviii. last verse)] and وَإِنْ مِنْ شَىْءٍ إِلَّا يُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِهِ [And there is not anything but it glorifies Him with praising (Kur xvii. 46)], for what is nonexistent cannot be described as perishing nor imagined to glorify God: (TA:) the pl. is أَشْيَآءُ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) imperfectly decl., (Msb, TA,) or rather this is a quasi-pl. n., (Sb, TA,) respecting the formation of which there is much difference of opinion [as will be shown hereafter], (Msb, TA,) and أَشْيَاوَاتٌ, (S, K,) a pl. pl. [i. e. pl. of أَشْيَآءٌ], (MF, TA,) and أَشَاوَاتٌ, [a contraction of that next preceding,] (K,) and أَشَاوَى, (S, K,) with fet-h to the و, (MF, TA,) and it is also mentioned as with kesr, (TA,) [and is written in both of my copies of the S أَشَاوَى, though if with kesr it should be either أَشَاوٍ or أَشَاوِىُّ, but أَشَاوَى

only is meant by J, as is shown by what here follows,] originally أَشَايِىُّ, with three ى s, not أَشَائِىُّ as J says, [or rather as the word is written in copies of the S, for J may have held it to be أَشَائِىُّ or أَشَايِىْءُ, as he says that the ء was changed into ى thus occasioning the combination of three ىs, so that he held its secondary form to be أَشَايِىُّ, as will presently be shown,] because the first ى is radical, not augmentative, (IB, K,) the medial ى of the three being suppressed, and the final one changed into ا [though written ى], and the initial one changed into و, (S,) and another form of pl. is أَشَايَا, (S, Msb, K,) with the ى preserved, not changed into و [as it is in أَشَاوَى], (TA,) [likewise] a pl. of أَشْيَآءُ, (Msb,) and أَشَيَايَا also is mentioned, (K,) as formed [from أَشْيَآءُ] by the change of ء into ى and adding ا, (TA,) and أَشَاوِهُ, which is strange, (Lh, K,) as there is no ه in أَشَيَآءُ, (Lh,) or in شَىْءٌ: (K:) with respect to the first of these forms, [the quasi-pl. n.] أَشَيَآءُ, the most probable opinion is that of Kh: (Msb, TA:) accord. to him, (S, Msb, K,) it is originally of the measure فَعْلَآءُ, (S, K, *) in lieu of أَفْعَالٌ, (K,) and therefore imperfectly decl., (S,) [i. e.] it is originally شَيْئَآءُ, (Msb,) and the two hemzehs combined in the latter portion being found difficult of pronunciation, the former of them is transposed to the beginning of the word, so that it becomes of the measure لَفْعَآءُ, (S, Msb,) as is shown by its having for its pls. أَشَاوَى and أَشَايَا and أَشْيَاوَاتٌ: (S:) accord. to Akh, it is [originally] of the measure أَفْعِلَآءُ; (S, K;) but if it were thus a broken pl., [not a quasi-pl. n.,] its dim. would not be ↓ أُشْيَّآءُ, as it is, but شُيَيْآتٌ: (S:) accord. to Ks, it is of the measure أَفْعَالٌ, and made imperfectly decl. because of frequency of usage, being likened to فَعْلَآءُ; but were it so, أَبْنَآء and أَسْمَآء would be imperfectly decl.: (S, K:) accord. to Fr, شَىْءٌ is originally شَيِّئٌ, and therefore has a pl. of the measure أَفْعِلَآءُ, afterwards contracted to فَعْلَآءُ; but were it so, it would not have for its pl. أَشَاوَى. (S. [Much more respecting this pl. is added in the TA, but it is comparatively unprofitable.]) The dim. of شَىْءٌ is ↓ شُيَىْءٌ and ↓ شِيَىْءٌ; (S, K, TA, but only the former in some copies of the K, the word being written in other copies شُِيَىْءٌ;) not ↓ شُوَىٌّ, or ↓ شُوَىْءٌ; (the former accord. to my two copies of the S and accord. to the copies of the K followed in the TA, in which it is said to be with teshdeed to the ى, and the latter accord. to the CK and my MS. copy of the K;) or this is a dial. var. of weak authority, (K,) used by post-classical poets in their verses. (MF, TA.) b2: When a man says to thee, “What dost thou desire? ” thou answerest, لَا شَيْئًا [Nothing]: and when he says, “Why didst thou that? ” thou answerest, لِلَا شَىْءٍ [For nothing]: and when he says, “What is thine affair? ” thou answerest, لَا شَىْءٌ [Nothing]: it is with tenween in every one of these cases. (As, AHát, TA.) [When one says لَا شَىْءَ, he means thereby There is nothing.]

b3: لَيْسَ بِشَىْءٍ means [It is nought, of no account or weight; it is not worthy of notice, or not worth anything;] it is not a good thing; or it is not a thing to be regarded. (W p. 27.) b4: [لَيْسَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ فِى شَىْءٍ is a phrase of frequent occurrence, meaning He has no concern with the affair; see two exs. in the first paragraph of art. حوص. b5: فِيهِ شَىْءٍِ مِنَ الطُّولِ occurs in the TA voce حُسْبَانَةٌ, meaning In it is somewhat, or some degree, of length; i. e. it is somewhat long; and is used in the present day in this sense.] b6: In the phrase هُوَ أَحْسَنُ مِنْكَ شَيْئًا, the last word is for بِشَىْءٍ

[i. e. He is better than thou in something; meaning he is somewhat better than thou]. (IJ, L.) b7: مَا أَغْفَلَهُ عَنْكَ شَيْئًا is a phrase of the Arabs [app. lit. signifying How unmindful of thee is he as to anything!] mentioned by Sb as meaning دَعِ الشَّكَّ عَنْكَ [Dismiss doubt from thee (respecting him as to anything)]: IJ says that شيئا is here put in the accus. case as an inf. n., as though the saying were مَا أَغْفَلَهُ عَنْكَ غُفُولًا, because the verb of wonder does not require to be corroborated by the inf. n. [proper to it]: (L, TA:) [or it is a specificative:] IF says that it is a phrase of dubious meaning; and that the most probable explanation of it is this; that ما is here lit. interrogative, but in meaning denotative of wonder; and that شيئا is governed in the accus. case by some other word, or phrase, as though the saying were dismiss a thing by which he is not occupied in mind, and dismiss doubt as to his being occupied in mind by it. (TA in art. ما.) b8: [شَيْئًا فَشَيْئًا means Thing by thing, part by part, bit by bit, piecemeal, inch by inch, drop by drop, little and little in succession, by little and little, by degrees or gradually.] b9: أَىُّ شَىْءٍ [meaning What thing?] is, by the alleviation of the ى [in اىّ] and the suppression of the ء [in شىء], made into one word, أَيْشَىْ: so says El-Fárábee: (Msb:) or, [as is commonly the case in the present day,] by reason of frequency of usage, it is contracted into أَيْشَ. (TA in art. جرم, as on the authority of Ks.) b10: شَىْءٌ in the Kur lx. 11 may mean Any one (Bd, Jel) or more. (Jel.) b11: [It is also applied to (assumed tropical:) The penis of a man; as in the explanation of a phrase mentioned voce ذَنَبٌ; like as its syn. هَنٌ is to the same and (more commonly) to the “ vulva ” of a woman.] b12: In algebra, it signifies [A square root;] a number that is multiplied into itself; which in arithmetic [and in algebra also] is called جذر [i. e. جَذْرٌ]; and in geometry, ضلع [i. e. ضِلْعٌ or ضِلَعٌ]; (“ Dict. of the Techn. Terms used in the Sciences of the Musalmans,” p. 202;) an unknown number that is multiplied into itself. (Idem, p. 730.) A2: It is also said, on the authority of Lth, to signify Water: and he cites as an ex., تَرَى رَكْبَهُ بِالشَّىْءِ فِى وَسْطِ قَفْرَةٍ

[Thou seest, or wilt see, his company of riders at the water in the midst of a desert]: but AM says, I know not الشىء in the sense of “ water,” nor know I what it is. (TA.) A3: يَا شَىْءَ is an expression of regret, (El-Ahmar, Ks, TA,) or of wonder, (K, TA,) [or of both,] meaning [Oh! or] O my wonder! (Ks, Lh, TA.) One says, يَا شَىْءَ مَا لِى, (El-Ahmar, Ks, Lh, K,) and يَا شَىَّ مَا لِى, i. e. with and without ء, (Ks, TA,) and يَا هَىْءَ مَا لِى, (Lh, K,) يا هَىَّ ما لى, and يَا فَىَّ ما لى, (El-Ahmar, Ks, TA,) neither of these two with ء, (Ks, TA,) [meaning Oh! or O my wonder! What has happened to me?] in all of these, (Ks, TA,) ما being in the place of a noun in the nom. case.

[See also 3, and 6.]) Accord. to El-Báhilee, ذَاتُ شَغْبٍ

[applied to a she-ass] means (tropical:) Having the quality of opposing or contravening [the male]: so in the saying of El-'Ajjáj, كَأَنَّ تَحْتِى ذَاتَ شَغْبٍ سَمْحَجَا قَوْدَآءَ لَا تَحْمِلُ إِلَّا مُخْدَجَا (tropical:) [As though beneath me were a she-ass] such as opposes or contravenes [the male], long-bodied, long-necked, [that would not bear in her womb aught save a fœtus imperfectly formed;] meaning, لَا تُؤَاتِبهِ وَتَشْغَبُ عَلَيْهِ [i. e. that she (the beast that he was riding) would not comply with his desire, and was contravening him].

مَشْوَرَةٌ and ↓ مَشُورَةٌ and ↓ شُورَى signify the same: (S:) the first and second are substs. from شَاوَرَهُ, and the third is a subst. from تَشَاوَرُوا: (Msb:) or the first (Lth) and second [which is written in the CK مَشْوَرَةٌ] (Lth, K) and third (K) are from الإِشَارَةُ (Lth) or أَشَارَ عَلَيْهِ: (K:) [they signify Consultation; or mutual debate in order that one may see another's opinion; or counsel, or advice: or a command, an order, or an injunction: or] the extracting, or drawing forth, opinion: (Bd, as mentioned above: see 6:) ↓ مَشُورَةٌ [in the CK مَشْوَرَةٌ] is of the measure مَفْعُلَةٌ, [originally مَشْوُرَةٌ, in the CK مَفْعَلَةٌ,] not مَفْعُولَةٌ, (K, TA,) because it is an inf. n., [or rather a quasi-inf. n.,] and such a noun has not this last measure: (TA:) it is like مَعُونَةٌ; (Msb;) and is a contraction of مَشْوُرَةٌ: (Fr, TA:) and it is said also to be from شَارَ الدَّابَّةَ; or, accord. to some, from شَارَ العَسَلَ; good counsel or advice being likened to honey.

بَيْنَهُمْ, like امرهم فَوْضَى بينهم, [Their affair, or case, is a thing to be determined by consultation among themselves,] i. e., none of them is to appropriate a thing to himself exclusively of others. (Msb.) It is said of 'Omar, ↓ تَرَكَ الخِلَافَةَ شُورَى (A, Mgh) He left the office of Khaleefeh as a thing to be determined by consultation: for he assigned it to one of six; not particularizing for it any one of them; namely, 'Othmán and 'Alee and Talhah and Ez-Zubeyr and 'Abd-Er-Rahmán Ibn-'Owf and Saad Ibn-Abee-Wakkás. (Mgh.) And one says also, ↓ النَّاسُ فِيهِ شُورَى [The people are to determine by consultation respecting it]. (A.) المُشِيرَةُ The forefinger, or pointing finger.

Hence the saying, إِيَّاكَ وَالخُطَبَ فَإِنَّهَا مِشْوَارٌ كَثِيرُ العِثَارِ (tropical:) [Avoid thou orations, for they are means of display in which one often stumbles]. (S, A, K.) b2: And The pace, or manner of going, of a horse: one says فَرَسٌ حَسَنُ المِشْوَارِ [A horse good in respect of pace, or manner of going]. (A.)

(TA.) A4: [It occurs in the O and K, in art. خوق, as signifying The penis of a horse: perhaps a mistranscription for شِوَار, q. v.: I find it expl. in this sense in Johnson's Pers\., Arab., and Engl. Dict.; but he may have taken it from the K.]

A5: [It is said to signify] also A portion that a beast has left remaining of its fodder: (O, K, TA:) but Kh says, “I asked ADk, Is it نِشْوَارٌ or مِشْوَارٌ? and he said نِشْوَارٌ, and asserted it to be Pers\.: ” (O, TA:) it is an arabicized word, (K,) originally نِشْخُوَار: (O, K: or, as in the CK, نُشْخوار: [correctly نِشْخْوَارْ or نُشْخْوَارْ:]) one says, نَشْوَرَتِ الدَّابَّةُ نِشْوَارًا. (TA.) مِشْوَارَةٌ A place in which bees deposit their honey; as also ↓ شُورَةٌ; (K;) or, as written by Sgh, the latter word is [↓ شَوْرَةٌ,] with fet-h. (TA.) [See also مَشَارٌ.]

مُشْتَارٌ A gatherer of honey. (S, TA.) b2: See also مَشَارٌ.

مُسْتَشِيرٌ Fat; (AA, S;) as also ↓ شُورَةٌ, with damm, applied to a she-camel: (K:) or the latter signifies of generous race; or excellent. (TA.)

(TA.) Hence, also, what is said in a trad., by Rabee'ah, respecting a man emancipating a portion of a slave: يَكُونُ عَلَى

المُعْتِقِ قِيمَةُ أَنْصِبَآءِ شُرَكَآئِهِ يُشْحَطُ الثَّمَنُ ثُمَّ يُعْتِقُ كُلَّهُ [The value of the portions of his copartners shall be imposed upon the emancipater;] the price of the slave shall be carried to the utmost; [then he shall emancipate the whole of him:] or the meaning is, the price of the slave shall be collected; from شَحَطَ الإِنَآءَ, which see below.

[And my she-camel uttered a yearning cry, by reason of lively emotion, and desire; whereupon I said, For whom, by the yearning cry, dost thou render me desirous?]: تُشَوِّقِينِى being for تُشَوِّقِينَنِى. (O, and Ham p. 146, q. v.) Lth says that التَّشْوِيقُ in relation to reading or recitation [of the Kur-án], and [sacred] narratives, is as when one says, شَوِّقْنَا يَا فُلَانُ [lit. Do thou render us desirous, O such a one], meaning do thou mention [to us] Paradise and what is therein, by narratives, or reading or recitation; may-be we shall become desirous of it, and therefore work for it. (O, TA.) 4 اشاقهُ signifies وَجَدَهُ شَائِقًا [app. meaning, عَاشِقًا, i. e. He found him to be an excessive, or attached, or admiring, lover]. (IAar, * TA.) b2: One says also, مَا أَشْوَقَنِى إِلَيْكَ [How great is my desire, or the yearning or longing of my soul, for thee!]. (TA.) 5 تشوّق He was, or became, excited by desire, or yearning or longing of the soul; quasi-pass. of شَوَّقَهُ (S, TA) and شَاقَهُ. (TA.) See also 8. b2: And (TA) He showed, or made a show of, (O, K, TA,) and affected, (O,) or affecting, (K, TA,) desire, or a yearning or longing of the soul. (O, K, TA.) 8 اشتاق إِلَيْهِ, (MA, O, Msb, K,) and اشتاقهُ, both signifying the same, (MA, O, K,) as also إِليه ↓ تشوّق, i. e. He was, or became, desirous of it; or affected with desire for it; (MA;) [or he yearned or longed for it in his soul; for] اِشْتِيَاقٌ is syn. with شَوْقٌ, (q. v.) as expl. below. (S.) شَوْقٌ Desire, or yearning or longing of the soul, (S, O, Msb, K,) إِلَى شَىْءٍ for a thing; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ اِشْتِيَاقٌ: (S:) [or] the motion of love: (IAar, O, K:) pl. أَشْوَاقٌ. (K.) One says, بَرَّحَ بِى الشَّوْقُ [Desire, &c., distressed me]: and بَلَغَتْ مِنِّى الأَشْوَاقُ [meaning in like manner Desires, &c., distressed me]. (TA.) بَنَاتُ الشَّوْقِ means (assumed tropical:) The effects of الشوق [or desire, &c.]. (Ham p.

539.) A2: Also inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (Msb, TA.) شِيقٌ: see what next follows.

شِيَاقٌ (assumed tropical:) The thing with which a thing is extended in order to its being tied to a thing; (O, K;) like نِيَاطٌ; (S in art. شيق, O, TA;) originally. شِوَاقٌ: and ↓ شِيقٌ, originally شِوْقٌ, signifies the same. (TA.) شَائِقٌ Exciting one's desire, or the yearning or longing of the soul of a person. (S, TA.) b2: Also [a possessive epithet, meaning ذُو شَوْقٍ. and hence,] An excessive, or attached, or admiring, lover; syn. عَاشِقٌ; and so ↓ مَشُوقٌ: (Har, p. 142:) or ↓ the latter signifies one whose desire, or yearning or longing of the soul, is excited: (S, TA:) the former is sing. of شُوقٌ, (TA,) which is syn. with عُشَّاقٌ [pl. of عَاشقٌِ] (IAar, O, K, TA) as well as pl. of أَشْوَقُ. (K.) شَيِّقٌ i. q. ↓ مُشْتَاقٌ [i. e. Desirous, or yearning or longing in the soul]: (O, Msb, K:) or i. q. مَشُوقٌ [q. v. voce شَائِقٌ, in two places]: (JK:) originally شَيْوِقٌ, of the measure فَيْعِلٌ.

(Ibn-Buzurj, O, K, TA.) مُشْتَاقٌ: see شَيِّقٌ. المُشْتَأَق (so in the S,) or المُشْتَئِق, because مُشْتَاقٌ is originally مُشْتَوِقٌ, of the measure مُفْتَعِلٌ, (O,) is used by poetic license for مُشْتَاق, (S, O,) as Sb says; (S;) for the poet, requiring to make the last letter but one movent, makes it so by the original vowel. (O.)
