One says, فُلَانٌ سَبَكَتْهُ التَّجَارِبُ (tropical:) [Such a one, tryings tried, or have tried, him]. (TA.)

(A, TA.) b2: The pl. is also applied to وُقَاق [i. e.

(TA.) سَبَّاكٌ A melter and purifier and caster, or one who makes سَبَائِك, of gold, or silver, or the like. b2: Hence,] هُوَ سَبَّاكٌ لِلْكَلَامِ a tropical phrase [app. meaning (tropical:) He is a trier, or tester, or a purifier, of speech, or language: see 1].

1 سَجَلَ المَآءَ, (S, K,) inf. n. سَجْلٌ, (TA,) He poured out, or forth, the water, (S, K, JM, TA,) continuously. (JM, TA.) b2: Hence, سَجَلَ القُرْآنَ He read, or recited, the Kur-án continuously.

(O.) You say, سجّل بِهِ He decided it judicially, [and recorded it in the سِجِلّ;] or he decreed it decisively; so expl. by the Shereef: or, as in the 'Ináyeh, he established it and recorded it [in the سِجِلّ]. (TA.) And سجّل القَاضِى

(S.) Hence, فُلَانٌ يُسَاجِلُ فُلَانًا (tropical:) Such a one vies with such a one, each of them producing, [of the evidences] of nobility, the like of what the other produces; the one, of them, that desists being overcome. (IB.) El-Fadl Ibn-'Abbás Ibn-'Otbeh Ibn-Abee-Lahab says, مَنْ يُسَاجِلْنِى يُسَاجِلْ مَاجِدًا يَمْلَأُ الدَّلْوَ إِلَى عَقْدِ الكَرَبْ [He who contends for superiority with me contends for superiority with one possessing glory, who fills the bucket to the tying of the rope that is attacked to the middle of its cross-bars]: and hence the saying, الحَرْبُ سِجَالٌ. (S. [See سَجْلٌ.]) 4 اسجلهُ He gave him a bucketful (سَجْلًا) or two bucketfuls (سَجْلَيْنِ): (K:) or, as some say, (assumed tropical:) he gave him much.

A2: اسجل He (a man, TA) abounded in goodness, (K, TA,) and beneficence, and gifts to men. (TA.) A3: أَسْجَلْتُ لِلرَّجُلِ, inf. n. إِسْجَالٌ, I wrote a writing for the man. (Msb.) b2: See also 2.6 تساجلوا They vied, competed, or contended for superiority, one with another; emulated, or rivalled, one another; or imitated one another; [originally, in the drawing of water: and hence, (assumed tropical:) in other things: (see 3:)] (S, TA:) and هُمَا يَتَسَاجَلَانِ They two vie, &c., each with the other. (K.) 7 انسجل It (water) poured out, or forth; or became poured out, or forth; (S, K;) [app., continuously: see 1.]

سَجْلٌ A full bucket: so accord. to Az and ElFárábee and others: (MS:) or a bucket containing water, whether little or much: such as is empty is not called سَجْلٌ nor ذَنُوبٌ: (S:) or a great bucket: (Msb: [see also سَجِيلٌ:]) or a great bucket that is full (K, TA) of water: (TA:) and a bucketful; the quantity that fills a bucket: (K:) it is of the masc. gender [though دَلْوٌ (the most common word for “ a bucket ”) is generally fem.]: (S, K:) pl. سِجَالٌ. (S.) b2: And [hence,] (assumed tropical:) A share, or portion; (Msb;) like دَلَاةٌ [which likewise originally signifies “ a bucket ”]. (S in art. دلو. [See also سَجِيلٌ.]) And hence is derived the saying, الحَرْبُ سِجَالٌ, [as though meaning (assumed tropical:) War is an affair of shares, or portions;] i. e. the victory in war is shared by turns among the people [engaged therein]: (Msb:) [but it is implied in the S that it is from المُسَاجَلَةُ, and that سِجَالٌ is here an inf. n. like مُسَاجَلَةٌ, agreeably with analogy; and if so, the saying may be rendered war is a contention for superiority: (see 3:)] or the saying الحَرْبُ بَيْنَهُمْ سِجَالٌ means (assumed tropical:) [War between them consists of portions, in such a manner that] a سَجْل [or portion] thereof is against these, and another is against these: (K:) originating from the act of two men drawing water with two buckets from a well, each of them having [in his turn] a full bucket. (TA.) You say also, أَعْطَاهُ سَجْلَهُ مِنْ كَذَا (tropical:) He gave him his share, or portion, of such a thing; like as one says, ذَنُوبَهُ. (Har p. 19.) The phrase سَجْلٌ

↓ سَجِيلٌ in the saying لَهُمْ مِنَ المَجْدِ سَجْلٌ سَجِيلٌ (K, * TA) has an intensive signification; (K, TA;) [the saying app. meaning (assumed tropical:) They have, of glory, a large share.] b3: Hence likewise, metaphorically applied to signify (tropical:) A gift: one says جَوَادٌ عَظِيمُ السَّجْلِ (tropical:) [A bountiful man who is large in gift]. (Har ibid. [The first word in this saying is there written جوّاد.]) One says also, لَهُ بِرٌّ فَائِضُ السِّجَالِ (assumed tropical:) [He has overflowing goodness or beneficence]. (TA.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) A bountiful man. (Abu-l-' Omeythil, K.) b5: And (assumed tropical:) A great udder: pl. سِجَالٌ and سُجُولٌ. (K.) A2: See also سِجِلٌّ, in two places.

سِجْلٌ: see the next paragraph.

سِجِلٌّ A writing; or paper, or piece of skin, written upon; (K, * TA;) as also سُجُلٌّ (TA) and ↓ سِجْلٌ (K, TA) [and ↓ سَجْلٌ, as appears from what follows]: or a طُومَار [meaning a roll, or scroll, or the like,] for writing upon or written upon: (Bd in xxi. 104:) and a written statement of a contract and the like; (K, TA;) i. e.

(K.) b4: And A certain angel, (K,) who folds the written statements of [men's] works. (Bd ubi suprà.) b5: And, without the article, A man, in the Abyssinian language. (K.) In the verse cited above, I' Ab read ↓ السَّجْلِ, and explained it as meaning A certain man: but it is also said to mean a certain angel: and another reading is السُّجُلِّ, a dial. var. mentioned above. (TA.) السِّجَالُ a name for The ewe. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) b2: And سِجَال سِجَال [i. e. سِجَالْ سِجَالْ, so in my MS. copy of the K, but in the CK سِجالِ سِجالِ,] is A call to the ewe to be milked. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) سَجُولٌ A she-goat abounding in milk: thus correctly, as in the O: in the copies of the K, in the place of عَنْزٌ is put عَيْنٌ [making the meaning to be a spring abounding in water or an eye abounding in tears].

(TA.) سَجَالَةٌ, in a testicle, Flaccidity and wideness in the scrotum. (K.) سَجِيلَةٌ: see سَجِيلٌ.

سِجِّيلٌ Stones like lumps of dry, or tough, clay: arabicized from سَنْگ وَ گِلْ; (K, TA;) which are Pers\. words, meaning “ stone and clay; ” the conjunction falling out in the arabicizing: (TA:) or baked clay: (Jel in xi. 84 and xv. 74 and cv. 4:) or stones (S, K) of clay (S) baked by the fire of Hell, whereon were inscribed the names of the people [for whom they were destined]: (S, K:) so in the Kur; as is indicated therein, in li. 33 and 34: (S:) or مِنْ سَجِّيلٍ in the Kur means مِنْ سِجِلٍّ, i. e. of what had been written [or decreed] for them, that they should be punished therewith; and سِجِّيل means the same as سِجِّين, mentioned and expl. in the Kur lxxxiii. 8 and 9: (K:) AO says that من سجّيل means many and hard; and that سِجِّينٌ is syn. with سِجِّيلٌ in this sense: (TA:) it is also said to be from سِجِّينٌ meaning Hell; the ن being changed into ل: (Bd in xi. 84:) also, to be from أَسْجَلْتُهُ meaning “ I sent forth him or it: ” or from أَسْجَلْتُ meaning “ I gave; ” and to be from السَّجْلُ.

(S.) b8: A skin such as is termed زِقّ for wine: (S, K:) because of its blackness: and ↓ سُحَيْمٌ also signifies a زِقّ (TA.) b9: Also A horn: (S, K:) thus in the saying of Zuheyr, وَتَذَبِيبُهَا عَنْهُ بِأَسْحَمَ مِذْوَدِ [And the frequent repelling of her, or them, from him with a horn; so that مذود is merely an explicative adjunct, for it also means a horn, or it may be rendered here an instrument for repel-ling]: (S, * TA:) or [اسحم is here an epithet, and] the meaning is, with a black horn. (TA.) Another poet uses the phrase تَذُبُّ بِسَحْمَاوَيْنِ.

[so in the TA, app. a mistranscription for تَذُبُّ,] i. e., [reading تَذُبُّ, She repels] with a pair of horns; using the fem, as meaning بِصِيصيَتَيْنِ; as though he said بِصِيصِيتَيْنِ سَحْمَاوَيْنِ [with two black horns]. (IAar, TA.) b10: The fem., السَّحْمَآءُ also signifies The دُبُر [here meaning anus]: (K:) because of its colour. (TA.) b11: For another signification of the fem., see سَحَمٌ.

أُسْحُمَانٌ Of the colour termed أُدْمَةٌ [here app. meaning tawniness] in an intense degree. (TA.) b2: Also A sort of tree. (M, K.) A poet uses the phrase الأُسْحُمَانُ الأَسْحَمُ [The black, or dark, اسحمان]. (M, TA.) إِسْحِمَانٌ: see أَسْحَمُ, first sentence.

(M, Msb, K.) 2 سنّمهُ, (M, K,) inf. n. تَسْنِيمٌ, (K,) It (herbage, or pasture,) made him (a camel) large in the سَنَام [or hump]; as also ↓ اسنمهُ: (M, K:) or both signify it made him fat. (TA.) b2: And He made it gibbous, namely, a grave; i. e. he raised it from the ground like the سَنَام: (Msb:) تَسْنِيم (S, K) of a grave (S) is the contr. of تَسْطِيح. (S, K.) He raised it, [app. so as to make it gibbous,] namely a thing. (M.) b3: And He filled it, namely, a vessel, (Az, M, Msb, K,) and then put upon it what was like a سَنَام of wheat or some other thing, (Az, Msb,) or so that there was above it what was like the سَنَام. (M.) b4: See also 5. b5: [And see تَسْنِيمٌ, below.]4 أَسْنَمَ see 1, in two places: b2: and 2, first sentence. b3: اسنم الدُّخَانُ, (S, K,) inf. n. إِسْنَامٌ, (S,) The smoke rose, or rose high.

(Har pp. 332, and 390.) b2: He (the stallion) mounted the she-camel; (M, TA;) he leaped the she-camel. (TA.) b3: And تسنّمهُ He, or it, mounted, ascended, got, was, or became, upon it, (S, M, Msb, K,) namely, a thing; (M, Msb, K;) as also ↓ سنّمهُ, (M, K,) inf. n. تَسْنِيمٌ. (TA. [Freytag adds استنمهُ in this sense, as on the authority of J, whom I do not find to have mentioned it.]) And He mounted, or ascended, upon it from its side, namely, a wall. (TA.) And He rode upon it, namely, anything, [meaning any animal,] advancing, or retiring. (TA.) b4: Also It became abundant upon him, and spread; said of hoariness; as also تَشَيَّمَهُ; (IAar, M, TA;) like أَوْشَمَ فِيهِ. (TA.) b5: and تسنّم السَّحَابُ الأَرْضَ The clouds rained copiously, or abundantly, upon the land. (TA.) b6: التَّسَنُّمُ also signifies The taking, or seizing, suddenly, unexpectedly, or by surprise. (M, K.) سَنَمٌ [a coll. gen. n.]: see سَنَمَةٌ [its n. un.].

سَنِمٌ A camel having a large سَنَام [or hump]: (Lth, S, M, K:) fem. with ة. (Lth, TA.) b2: Also A tall plant, of which the سَنَمَة, (S, K,) i. e. the head, resembling the ear of corn, (S,) or the blossom, (K,) has come forth. (S, K.) [And]

سَنِمَةٌ signifies Any tree (شَجَرَة) that does not bear; its extremities having dried up, and become altered. (M. [In the TA, the word in this sense is said to be سَنَمَةٌ: but the former is app. the right reading.]) b3: Also, (TA,) or سَنِمٌ عَلَى

وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ, (S, in which it is only mentioned as said of water,) Water rising, or rising high, and appearing upon the surface of the earth. (TA.) سَنَمَةٌ The blossom (M, K) of a plant; (K;) i. e. (TA) the head thereof, resembling the ear of corn, (S, TA,) [or] it is of the طَرِيفَة [q. v.], not of the [herbs called] بَقْل: (M:) and signifies also the extremities [or an extremity] of the صِلِّيَان, which are [or is] shed thereby: (M, TA:) and the head of a tree [or plant] of the kind termed دِقّ [q. v.], in form like what is upon the head of the reed, or cane, except that it is soft, and the camels eat it in the manner termed خَضْمٌ [inf. n. of خَضَمَ, q. v.]: (TA:) [it is the n. un. of ↓ سَنَمٌ, the latter being a coll. gen. n., as is shown by what follows:] AHn says, some assert that the سَنَمَة is such of the produce of herbs as resembles the produce of the إِذْخِر [q. v.] and the like; and such as the produce of the reed, or cane; and that the most excellent of the سَنَم are the سَنَم of a herb called the ↓ إِسْنَامَة [n. un. of إِسْنَامٌ]; and the camels eat it in the manner termed خَضْمٌ, because of its softness; or, as in some of the copies [of his work], the camels do not eat it. (M.) سَنَامٌ of the camel, (S,) of the he-camel and of the she-camel, [The hump; i. e.] the highest part of the back: (M, TA:) [in substance,] it is to the camel like the أَلْيَة [here meaning the fat of the tail] to the sheep: (Msb:) pl. أَسْنِمَةٌ (S, M, Msb, K) [and app. أَسْنَامٌ also, as seems to be indicated by an explanation of this latter pl. in what follows]. Hence, in a trad., نِسَآءٌ عَلَى رُؤُوسِهِنَّ كَأَسْنِمَةِ البُخْتِ [Women upon whose heads are the like of the humps of the Bactrian camels]; meaning such as wind the head-coverings as turbans upon their heads so as to enlarge them [in appearance] thereby. (TA.) [Hence, also, سَنَامُ النَّاقَةِ (assumed tropical:) The name of a star in the constellation of Cassiopea: mentioned by Freytag, with a reference to Ideler Untersuch. p. 84.] b2: Also The highest, or highest part, of anything: (TA:) and the best, or choice part, (M, TA,) of anything; (TA;) because the سَنَام is the best, or the choice part, of what is in the camel. (M.) [Hence,] أَسْنِمَةُ الرِّمَالِ The protuberant, or elevated, parts of the sands; as being likened to the hump of the she-camel: (M, TA:) and أَسْنِمَةُ الرَّمْلِ the backs of the sands, that rise from the main portions thereof. (TA.) And سَنَامُ الأَرْضِ The بَحْر [q. v.] (S, TA [in some copies of the S نَحْر, perhaps correctly نَجْد, i. e. high, or elevated, part]) of the land: (S, TA:) and the middle of the land. (S, K.) And سَنَامُ النَّعْلِ The rising part of the middle of the upper side of the sandal, which is in the place of the hollow of the foot. (Har p. 559.) And أَسْنَامُ نَارٍ The highest parts of a fire: (EM p. 156, and TA:) أَسْنَام being pl. of سَنَامٌ, which signifies the highest part of a thing. (EM ubi suprà.) And سَنَامُ المَجْدِ (assumed tropical:) The highest [of a people] in respect of glory. (TA.) السُّنَّمُ The ox, or cow; syn. البَقَرَةُ: (M, K:) or, as some say, the wild بَقَرَة. (TA.) إِسْنَامٌ The fruit, or produce, of the حَلِىّ [q. v.]; (M, K, TA; [in the CK, of the حُلَيّا;]) mentioned by Seer on the authority of Aboo-Málik: (M:) n. un. with ة. (K.) And the latter signifies A certain herb: (see سَنَمَةٌ:) or a species of tree: pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] إِسْنَامٌ. (M.) تَسْنِيمٌ [originally inf. n. of 2, q. v.,] A certain water in Paradise; so called because running above the elevated chambers (S, K *) and the pavilions: mentioned in the Kur lxxxiii. 27: (S:) or a certain fountain, or source, (عَيْنٌ,) in Paradise: so they assert; and this requires its being determinate, imperfectly decl.: or, accord. to Zj, a water coming upon them from above, from the elevated chambers: (M:) or a certain fountain, or source, coming upon them from above. (K [and in like manner Az explains it].) أَرْضٌ مُسْنِمَةٌ A land that gives growth to the إِسْنَامَة, n. un. of إِسْنَامٌ.

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. (Ks, Lh, TA.) b2: Some also say, يَا شَىْءَ and يَا هَىَّ and يَا فَىَّ, and some add مَا, saying, يَا شَىْءَ مَا and يَا هَىَّ مَا and يَا فَىَّ مَا, meaning How good, or beautiful, is this! (Ks, TA.) شِيْئَةٌ [Will, wish, or desire,] a subst. from شَآءَهُ, (Lh, K,) [and] so is ↓ مَشِيْئَةٌ [which is mentioned in the K as an inf. n.]. (Msb.) One says, كُلُّ شَىْءٍ بِشِيْئَةِ اللّٰهِ, (S, K,) i. e. ↓ بَمِشِيْئَتِهِ [Everything is by the will of God]. (S.) شُيَىْءٌ and شِيَىْءٌ and شُوَىٌّ or شُوَىْءٌ: see شَىْءٌ in the middle of the paragraph.

شَيِّآنٌ and شَيَّآنٌ: see art. شوأ.

أُشَيَّآءُ dim. of أَشْيَآءُ: see شَىْءٌ, in the latter part of the former half of the paragraph.

مَشِيْئَةٌ: see شِيْئَةٌ, in two places: b2: and see also شَىْءٌ, near the beginning of the paragraph.

مُشَيَّأٌ Incongruous, unsound, (K, TA,) foul, or ugly, (TA,) in make, or formation. (K, TA. [See Ham p. 192.]) b2: And accord. to Aboo-Sa'eed, A child born preposterously, the legs coming forth before the arms. (TA.)

(K, TA.) فِيمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ, in the Kur 4:65, means Respecting that which hath become complicated, or intricate, or confused, [so as to be a subject of disagreement, or difference,] between them: and hence the word شَجَرٌ, [“ trees,” and “ shrubs,”] because of the intermixing, or confusion, of the branches: (Bd:) or respecting the disagreement, or difference, that has happened between them. (Zj, Mgh.) And it is said in a trad., إِيَّاكُمْ وَمَا شَجَرَ بَيْنَ أَصْحَابِى Avoid ye the disagreement, or difference, that hath occurred among my companions. (TA.)

[of شَجَرٌ] is أَشْجَارٌ (S, Msb) and [of شَجَرَةٌ] شَجَرَاتٌ (Msb, TA) and [of شِيَرَةٌ] شِيَرَاتٌ: (TA:) ↓ شَجْرَآءُ also signifies the same as شَجَرٌ: (K:) or it is a pl. [or rather a quasi-pl. n.] of شَجَرَةٌ; a pl. [or quasi-pl. n.] of which there are few other instances; قَصْبَآءُ of قَصَبَةٌ, and طَرْفَآءُ of طَرَفَةٌ, and حَلْفَآءُ of حَلَفَةٌ; or, accord. to As, the sing.

(Bd in xiv. 31.) And الشَّجَرَةُ المَلْعُونَةُ, mentioned in the Kur xvii. 62, means The tree called الزَّقُّوم: and some explain it as meaning the Devil: and Aboo-Jahl: and El-Hakam Ibn-Abi-l-'As. (Bd.) b5: شَجَرَةٌ also signifies (tropical:) The stock, or origin, of a man: (O, TA:) [hence,] one says, هُوَ مِنْ شَجَرَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ (tropical:) [He is of a good stock or origin]; and مِنْ شَجَرَةِ النُّبُوَّةِ (tropical:) [of the prophetic stock, meaning of the stock of the Prophet].

(TA.) b7: And one says, مَا أَحْسَنَ شَجَرَةَ ضَرْعِهَا, (so in my copy of the A, and accord. to the CK,) or ضرعها ↓ شَجْرَةَ, (O, and so accord. to the text of the K as given in the TA, [but Z has, in the A, distinguished the phrase as tropical, and hence it seems that he held the former reading to be the right,]) (tropical:) How goodly are the shape, (A,) or the size, (O, K,) and the appearance, of her udder! (A, O, K:) or the veins and skin and flesh thereof! referring to a she-camel. (O, K.) شَجِرٌ: see 1, last sentence: A2: and its fem., with ة, see voce شَجِيرٌ.

شكر

1 شَكَرَ لَهُ, and شَكَرَهُ, (S, Mgh, K,) but the former is the more chaste, (S,) and the latter is for شَكَرَ نِعْمَتَهُ, (A,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. شُكْرٌ and شُكْرَانٌ (S, A, * Msb, K) and شُكُورٌ, (S, K) which last, in the Kur lxxvi. 9, may be either an inf. n. or pl. of شُكْرٌ [used as a simple subst.], (S,) He thanked him; or praised, eulogized, or commended, him, for a benefit or benefits: (S:) he was grateful, or thankful, to him; or he acknowledged his beneficence, and spoke of it largely: (S, * K: [but in the S, the verb in the former sense has شُكْرٌ only for its inf. n., and it is implied that in the latter sense it has for its inf. n. only شُكْرَانٌ, as will be seen below:]) and شَكَرَ لِلّٰهِ, and شَكَرَ اللّٰهَ, (Lh, Msb, K,) which latter is less common than the former, and even disallowed by As in prose, though allowed by him in verse, (Msb,) and شَكَرَ بِاللّٰهِ and شَكَرَ نِعْمَةَ اللّٰهِ, and شَكَرَ بِنِعْمَةِ اللّٰهِ, (Lh, K,) and شَكَرَ لِلّٰهِ نِعْمَتَهُ, (A,) inf. n. شُكْرٌ and شُكْرَانٌ (Msb) [and شُكُورٌ], He thanked, or praised, God for his beneficence: (A:) he was grateful, or thankful, to God; or acknowledged his beneficence, and spoke of it largely: (K:) he acknowledge the beneficence of God, and acted in the manner incumbent on him in rendering Him obedience and abstaining from disobedience; so that شُكْر is in word and in deed: (Msb:) and لَهُ ↓ تَشَكَّرَ signifies the same as شَكَرَ لَهُ: (S, A, Msb, K:) you say, لَهُ مَا صَنَعَ ↓ تَشَكَّرْتُ [I thanked him, &c., for what he did]: (A:) and لَهُ بَلَآءَهُ ↓ تشكّر [He was grateful to Him, &c., i. e. to God, for his probation]: (K:) and أَشْكُرُ إِلَيْكَ نِعَمَ اللّٰهِ [I praise to thee, or mention to thee with thanks, the favours of God]: (L in art. حمد:) [but there are many explanations of شَكَرَ beside those given above: its meanings will be more fully shown by what here follows:] شُكْرٌ is the thanking a benefactor; or praising, eulogizing, or commending, him, (S, A,) for a benefits: (S:) or the being grateful, or thankful; or acknowledging beneficence; and speaking of it largely; and [in the copies of the K, “or,” but this is evidently a mistake,] it is only on account of favour received; (K;) and شُكْرَانٌ is [the same, being] contr. of كُفْرَانٌ: (S:) شُكْرٌ [sometimes] differs from حَمْدٌ; (Msb in art. حمد;) for شكر is only on account of favour received; whereas حمد is sometimes because of favour received, (Th, Az, TA in art. حمد, and Msb ubi suprà,) and sometimes form other causes; (Th ubi suprà;) [and thus] the latter is of more common application than the former; (S in art. حمد;) therefore you do not say شَكَرْتُهُ عَلَى

شَجَاعَتِهِ, but you say حَمِدْتُهُ على شجاعته: (Msb ubi suprà:) or شُكْرٌ is more common than حَمْدٌ with respect to its kinds and means, and more particular with respect to the objects to which it relates; and the latter is more common with respect to the objects to which it relates, and more particular with respect to the means; for the former is, with the heart, the being humble, or lowly, and submissive; and with the tongue, the act of praising, eulogizing, or commending; and acknowledging beneficence; and with the members, the act of obeying, and submitting one's self; and the object to which it relates is the benefactor, exclusively of his essential qualities; therefore one does not say شَكَرْنَا اللّٰهَ عَلَى حَيَاتِهِ [we thanked God for his existence, or praised Him, &c.]; but He is مَحْمُود on that account, like as He is for his beneficence; and شُكْرٌ is also for beneficence: thus حَمْدٌ relates to every object to which, as an object, شُكْرٌ relates; but the reverse is not the case: and everything whereby is حمد, thereby is شكر; but the reverse is not the case; for the latter is by means of the members, or limbs, and the former is by means of the tongue: شُكْرٌ is of three kinds; with the heart, or mind, which is the forming an [adequate] idea of the benefit; and with the tongue, which is the praising, eulogizing, or commending, the benefactor; and with the members, or limbs, which is the requiting the benefit according to its desert: it rests upon five foundations; humility of him who renders it towards him to whom it is rendered; his love of him; his acknowledgment of his benefit; the eulogizing him for it; and his not making use of the benefit in a manner which he [who has conferred it] dislikes: it is also explained as devotion of the heart to love of the benefactor, and of the members to obey him, and the employment of the tongue in mentioning him and eulogizing him: [and there are several other explanations of it which it is unnecessary to add:] some say that it is formed by transposition from كَشْرٌ, the “ act of uncovering, or exposing to view: ” others, that it is from عَيْنٌ شَكْرَى “ a full fountain, or eye; ” accord. to which etymology it would signify the being full of the praise of the benefactor. (B, TA.) b2: شُكْرٌ on the part of God signifies (tropical:) The requiting and commending [a person]: (K:) or (assumed tropical:) the forgiving a man: or (tropical:) the regarding him with content, satisfaction, good will, or favour: and hence, necessarily, (tropical:) the recompensing, or rewarding, him: the saying شَكَرَ اللّٰهُ سَعْيَهُ signifies (tropical:) May God recompense, or reward, his work, or labour. (TA.)
