As relates, of an Arab of the desert, with whom some companions of his made an appointment to meet him in a certain place of the mosque, and to whom he broke his promise, that, being asked respecting that, he said, مَرَرْتُ بِكُمْ فَسَرِفْتُكُمْ, meaning [I passed by you and] I was unmindful of you. (S.) And hence the saying of Jereer, (S, TA,) praising the Benoo-Umeiyeh, (TA,) أَعْطَوْا هُنَيْدَةَ يَحْدُوهَا ثَمَانِيَةٌ مَا فِى عَطَائِهِمُ مِنٌّ وَلَا سَرَفُ meaning [They gave a hundred camels, eight persons driving them, or urging them by singing to them: there was not in their gift reproach for a benefit conferred, nor] unmindfulness: or the meaning is, nor missing (خَطَأٌ); that is, they did not miss the proper place of the gift by their giving it to such as did not deserve it and refusing it to the deserving.

بنج

2 بنّجهُ, inf. n. تَبْنِــيجٌ, [He dosed him, or stupified him, with بَنْج, q. v.;] he gave him بَنْج to eat. (K.) [See the act. part. n. below.]

بَنْجٌ [Hyoscyamus, or henbane;] an arabicized word, [said to be] from [the Persian] بَنْكْ; [but see a quotation from Hammer-Purgstall, near the close of this paragraph;] a certain plant, (Mgh, and Har p. 365,) having an intoxicating kind of grain, or, as some say, (Mgh,) of which the leaves and peel and seeds torpify: (Mgh, Har:) it is said, in the Kánoon, (Mgh,) by Aboo-'Alee [Ibn-Seenà, or Avicenna], (Har,) that it is a poison which confuses the intellect, and annuls the memory, and occasions insanity and [the disorder termed]

خُنَاق [or quinsy]; (Mgh, Har;) and it is red, and white: (Har:) a certain plant having a kind of grain that confuses the intellect, and occasions alienation of the mind, or insanity; and sometimes it intoxicates, when a man drinks it after it has been dissolved; and it is said to occasion forgetfulness: (Msb:) a certain torpifying plant, well known; different from حَشِيشُ الحَرَافِيشِ; disordering the intellect (مُخَبِّطٌ لِلْعَقْلِ), rendering insane, allaying the pains of humours and pustules, and the earache, (K, TA,) applied as a liniment or as a poultice; (TA;) the worst kind (K, TA) for use (TA) is the black; then, the red; and the safest kind is the white. (K, TA.) [Kzw says that the leaves of the garden-hemp (قِنَّب بُسْتَانِىّ, or شَهْدَانَجِ, the latter of which properly signifies hemp-seed,) are the بَنْج which, when eaten, disorders the intellect. And ElIdreesee applies the appellation حَشِيشِيَّة to the “ Assassins. ” This establishes the correctness of De Sacy's opinion, that the appellation “ Assassins ” is derived from the vulgar pl. حَشَّاشِين, (hemp-eaters, or persons who intoxicate themselves with hemp,) for حَشَّاشِين is syn. with حَشِيشَّة, and the sect called by us the “ Assassins ” are expressly said by the Arabs to have made frequent use of بَنْج. Baron Hammer-Purgstall, correctly regarding بَنْج as hyoscyamus (or henbane), makes the following important observations, “ ‘ Bendj, ' the pl. of which in Coptic is ‘ nibendj, ' is without doubt the same plant as the ‘ nepenthe, '

which has hitherto so much perplexed the commentators of Homer. Helen evidently brought the nepenthe from Egypt, and bendj is there still reputed to possess all the wonderful qualities which Homer attributes to it. ” (Trébutien, “Contes Inédits des Mille et une Nuits,” tome i. p. 12, note.)] The phrase شَرِبَ البَنْجَ is used by ElKarkhee [as meaning He drank the بنج] because it is mixed with water; or [as meaning he took, or swallowed, the بنج,] according to the conventional language of the physicians. (Mgh.) مُبَنِّجٌ One who employs a stratagem by means of food containing بَنْج [in order to obtain some advantage over another, by stupifying him therewith; as the “ Assassins ” used to do]. (Mgh.)

b2: You say, دَارُوا

حَوْلَهُ and ↓ استداروا They went round it: (A:) and دار حَوْلَ البَيْتِ and ↓ استدار He went round the house [or Kaabeh]. (Msb.) Z and others dislike the phrase داربِالبَيْتِ, [which seems to have been used in the same sense as دار حَوْلَهُ,] preferring the phrase طَافَ بِالبَيْتِ, because of the phrase دار بَالدُّوَارِ, signifying He went round about in the circuit called الدُّوَار, round the idol called by the same name. (TA.) [بِهِ ↓ استدار

mostly signifies It encircled, or surrounded, or encompassed, it.]

الفَلَكِ signifies the consecutive incessant motions of the several parts of the firmament. (Msb.)

b4: Hence the saying دَارَتِ المَسْأَلَةُ, [inf. n. دَوْرٌ,] The question formed a circle; one of its propositions depending for proof upon another following it, and perhaps this upon another, and so on, and the latter or last depending upon the admission of the first. (Msb.) [And in like manner, دار, inf. n. دَوْرٌ, signifies He reasoned in a circle.]


b5: It is said in a trad., ↓ إِنَّ الزَّمَانَ قَدِ اسْتَدَارَ

كَهَيْئَتِهِ يَوْمَ خَلْقِ اللّٰهِ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَ الأَرْضَ [Verily time hath come round to the like of the state in which it was on the day of God's creating the heavens and the earth: this was said by Mohammad after he had forbidden the practice of intercalating a lunar month, by which the Arabs had long imperfectly adjusted their lunar year to the solar.] (TA.) And one says, دَارَتِ الأَيَّامُ [The days came round in their turns]. (S and Msb and K in art. دول.) And يَوْمٌ لَا يَدُورُ فِى شَهْرِهِ

[A day of the week that does not come round again in its month: as the last Wednesday, &c.]. (Mujáhid, TA voce دُبَارٌ [q. v.].) [And دار is said of an event, as meaning It came about. See an ex. in a verse cited in art. اذ.]

says, حَتَّى أُتِيحَ لَهُ يَوْمًا بِمَرْقَبَةٍ

ذُو مِرَّةٍ بِدِوَارِ الصَّيْدُ وَجَّاسُ

[Until there was prepared for him, one day, in a watching-place, an intelligent person, acquainted with the circumvention of game]: وجّاس is here made trans. by means of ب because it means the same as عَالِمٌ in the phrase عَالِمٌ بِهِ. (M.) [Or the meaning of the latter hemistich is, a person possessing skill in circumventing game, attentive to their motions and sounds.]

It is said in the trad. respecting the night-journey [of Mo-hammad to Jerusalem, and his ascension thence into Heaven], that Moses said to Mohammad, لَقَدْ دَاوَرْتُ بَنِى إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى أَدْنَى مِنْ هٰذَا فَضَعُفُوا

[(assumed tropical:) Verily I endeavoured to induce the children of Israel to incline to less than this, and they were unable]: or, accord. to one relation, he said رَاوَدْتُ. (TA.) See also 4.

b4: دَاوَرَ الأُمُورَ (tropical:) He sought to find the modes, or manners, of doing, or performing, affairs, or the affairs: (A:) المُدَاوَرَةٌ is like المُعَالَجَةٌ [signifying the labouring, taking pains, applying one's self vigorously, exerting one's self, striving, or struggling, to do, execute, or perform, or to effect, or accomplish, or to manage, or treat, a thing; &c.].

signifying He was made to turn round; by which, as by the third also, is meant] he became affected by a vertigo, or giddiness in the head. (S, * A, * K. [See also 1.])

b2: ادارهُ عَلَى الأَمْرِ He endeavoured [to turn him to the thing, i. e.]

b3: إِدَارَةٌ [the inf. n.] also signifies The giving and taking, from hand to hand, without delay: and agreeably with this explanation is rendered the phrase in the Kur [ii. 282], لِجَارَةٌ حَاضِرَةٌ تُدِيرُونَهَا بَيْنَكُمْ Ready

merchandise, which ye give and take among yourselves, from hand to hand, without delay; i. e., not on credit]. (TA.)

رَجَبٌ One of the [Arabian] months; (Msb;) [namely, the seventh thereof;] so called because of the honour in which it was held in the Time of Ignorance, (S, A, * K, *) inasmuch as war, or fighting, during it was held unlawful: (S:) in a trad., (TA,) it is called رَجَبُ مُضَرَ [Rejeb of Mudar], because Mudar most honoured it: (S, TA:) and it is further distinguished as being between جَمَادَى and شَعْبَان, to show that what is meant by it is not what the [pagan] Arabs called رجب according to the computation founded upon postponement; for they used to postpone it from month to month: (TA:) [it is also called رَجَبٌ الفَرْدُ Rejeb the separate; because it is the only sacred month that is not preceded nor followed by another sacred month; the other sacred months being المُحَرَّمُ and ذُو القَعْدَةِ and ذُو الحَجَّةِ:] the pl. is أِرْجَابٌ (S, Msb, K) and أَرْجِبَةٌ and أَرْجُبٌ [all pls. of pauc.] (Msb) and رُجُوبٌ and رِجَابٌ and رَجَبَاتٌ (Msb, K) and رَجُوبٌ [or rather this last is a quasi-pl. n.] (TA) and [pl. pl.] أَرَاجِبُ [pl. of أَرْجُبٌ] and أَرَاجِيبُ [pl. of أَرْجَابٌ]. (Msb.) The dual, رَجَبَانِ, (S, Msb,) or الرَّجَبَانِ, (A,) [The two Rejebs] is applied to [the two months] رَجَبٌ and شَعْبَانُ, (S, A, Msb,) by the attribution of predominance to the former. (Msb.) A2: See also أَرْجَابٌ.

رُجْبَةٌ A thing by means of which a tree is propped up, because of the abundance of its fruit, lest its branches should break: sometimes it is a wall built for it to rest upon, because of its weakness: (S:) a wall, or the like, built round a palm-tree, for it to rest upon, because of its heaviness or its weakness: (Mgh in art. عرو and عرى:) a kind of wide bench of stone or brick (دُكَّانٌ) built at the foot of a palm-tree, for it to rest upon, (K, TA,) because of its leaning, and being valuable to its owner, and being weak: (TA:) accord. to As, a structure of rock with which a palm-tree is supported by means of forked pieces of wood: (TA:) it is also called رُجْمَةٌ: (K * and TA in art. رجم:) pl. رُجَبٌ.

(TA.) رَاجِبٌ One who honours his lord, chief, or master. (AA, TA.) رَاجِبَةٌ sing. of رَوَاجِبُ; (S, K;) or, accord. to Kr, the sing. of this latter is ↓ رُجْبَةٌ [also mentioned as a sing. in the K]; but the correctness of this is doubted: (TA:) the رواجب are The finger-joints that are next to the ends of the fingers: (S, K:) next to these are the بَرَاجِم: then, the أَشَاجِع, which are next to the كَفّ: (S:) or the joints of the lowest parts (أُصُول) of the fingers: (K: [by which is meant the same as by the former explanation, accord. to the TA; though this seems to be more than doubtful:]) or the inner sides of those joints: or the bones of the fingers: (K:) or the finger-joints: (A, K:) or the backs of the سُلَامَيَات [generally meaning the phalanges of the fingers]: or the parts of the سُلَامَيَات between the بَرَاجِم; (K;) which last word [commonly signifies the knuckles, and] is explained by IAar as signifying the wrinkled parts at the joints of the fingers; whereof each finger has three, except the thumb: or the رواجب are the parts, of the inner sides, between the finger-joints: or [the knuckles next the metacarpal bones; i. e.] the parts that protuberate at the roots of the fingers when the hand is clinched.

(S, K) known to A'Obeyd: (S:) or its sing. is ↓ رَجَبٌ, (Kr, K,) or ↓ رُجْبٌ, (K,) or ↓ رِجْبٌ. (Ibn-Hamdaweyh.) مُرَجَّبٌ Honoured, or magnified: (S:) or revered, venerated, regarded with awe, and honoured, or magnified; (A;) as also ↓ مَرْجُوبٌ (S.) b2: The saying of Hobáb Ibn-El-Mundhir
