(TK.) You say also, داقّ النَّظَرَ فِى مُعَامَلَاتِهِ وَنَفَقَاتِهِ [He examined minutely into his dealings and his expenses].

(M.) b3: and ادقّت, said of the eye, It shed few tears; opposed to اجلّت; as in the saying of El-Fak'asee cited in art. جل. (S * and TA voce أَجَلَّ, q. y.) A2: And ادقّ (assumed tropical:) He pursued little, paltry, or mean, things.

(TA.) And أَحْمَقُ فَاكٌّ وَهَاكٌّ (tropical:) [A foolish, or stupid, person,] one who talks of that which he knows and of that which he knows not, and is more, or oftener, incorrect than correct.

(M, L, K.) A poet says, فَكَأَنَّنَا فِيهِمْ جِمَالٌ ذَبَّةٌ [And it was as though we were, among them, camels that would not remain still in a place]: which shows that ذَبٌّ is not an inf. n. used as an epithet; for, were it so, he had said جِمَالٌ ذَبٌّ. (M, L.) b2: الذَّبُّ (tropical:) The wild bull; [a species of bovine antelope;] also called ذَبُّ الرِّيَادِ; (T, S, M, K;) so called because he goes to and fro, not remaining in one place; (M;) or because he pastures going to and fro; (T, S, * M;) or because his females pasture with him, going to and fro: (T:) and called also ↓ الأَذَبُّ, (T, K,) by poetic license, for الذَّبُّ; (T;) and ↓ الذُّنْبُبُ.

[properly speaking], and is used as such in the Kur xxii. 72: (M:) the pl. (of pauc., S, Msb) is أَذِبَّهٌ and (of mult., S, Msb) ذِبَّانٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and ذُبٌّ, (M, K,) the last mentioned by Sb, accord. to the dial. of Temeem. (M.)

(A.) مَنْجَى الذُّبَابِ [The refuge of the fly] is a prov., applied to him who is protected by his ignobleness. (Har p. 332: there written مَنْجَا; and in two places, منجأ.) And أَبُو الذُّبَابِ [The father of the fly] is an appellation used as meaning (assumed tropical:) He who has stinking breath; and some say أَبُو الذِّبَّانِ [the father of the flies]: (M, TA:) and is especially applied to 'Abd-El-Melik Ibn-Marwán: (M, A, TA:) whence the saying, أَبْخَرُ مِنْ أَبِى الذُّبَابِ (A, TA) and أَبِى الذِّبَّانِ (TA) [More stinking in breath than Abu-dh-Dhubáb and Abu-dh-Dhibbán]. b2: [Hence,] (tropical:) Evil, or mischief; (A, K;) and annoyance, or harm; as in the saying, أَصَابَنِى ذُبَابٌ (tropical:) [Evil, &c., befell me]; (A;) and أَصَابَ فُلَانًا مِنْ فُلَانٍ ذُبَابٌ لَاذِعٌ (assumed tropical:) Evil, or mischief, [lit. a hurting fly] fell upon such a one from such a one: (T:) or (tropical:) continual evil, as in the saying, أَصَابَكَ ذُبَابٌ مِنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ (tropical:) [Continual evil hath befallen thee from this thing, or event]; and شَرُّهَا ذُبَابٌ (tropical:) [Her, or its, or their, evil is a continual evil]. (TA.) b3: (assumed tropical:) Ill luck. (T, K.)
