(S, O. [See عَمُودٌ, &c.]) b2: And عَمَدَهُ, (L, K,) aor. ـِ (L,) or ـُ (TA,) inf. n. عَمْدٌ, (L,) He struck him, or beat him, with an [iron weapon such as is called] عَمُود. (O, L, K.) b3: And He struck him, or beat him, upon the part called عَمُودُ البَطْن. (O, L, K.) A2: عَمَدَ لَهُ, (S, A, O, L, Msb,) and عَمَدَ إِلَيْهِ, (L, Msb,) and عَمَدَهُ, (L, K,) aor. ـِ [or عَمِدَ and عَمُدَ, (Har p. 299,)] inf. n. عَمْدٌ (S, O, L, Msb) and عَمَدٌ and عِمَادٌ and عُمْدَةٌ (Mtr, TA) and عُمُودٌ (Nawádir el-Aaráb, TA) and مَعْمَدٌ; (Ibn-'Arafeh, TA;) and ↓ تعمّدهُ, (L, Msb, K,) and لَهُ ↓ تعمّد; (S, L;) and ↓ اعتمدهُ; (L, TA;) He intended it, or purposed it; did it intentionally, or purposely; the inf. n. signifying the contr. of خَطَأٌ: (Az, S, L, TA:) he directed himself, or his course or aim, to it, or towards it; made for it, or towards it; made it his object; aimed at it; sought, or endeavoured, after it; or tended, repaired, or betook himself, to it, or towards it; syn. قَصَدَهُ; (L, K;) or قَصَدَ لَهُ, (S, A, O,) or إِلَيْهِ. (Msb.) You say, الأَمْرَ ↓ اعتمد He intended, or purposed, the affair; or aimed at it; &c.; syn. صَمَدَهُ; (A in art. صمد;) or صَمَدَ صَمْدَهُ, i. e. قَصَدَ قَصْدَهُ. (M in that art.)

And عَمَدَ لِرَأْسِهِ بِالعَصَا He aimed at his head with the staff, or stick. (M in art. صمد.) And عَمَدَهُ, [and عَمَدَ إِلَيْهِ,] aor. ـِ and ↓ اعتمدهُ; and ↓ تعمّدهُ; He betook himself to him, or had recourse to him, in a case of need. (A.) b2: And [hence] one says, فَعَلْتُهُ عَمْدًا عَلَى عَيْنٍ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and عَمْدَ عَيْنٍ, (S, A, O, Msb, K,) I did it seriously, or in earnest, and with certain knowledge, or assurance. (S, A, O, Msb, K. [See also عَيْنٌ.]) When a man sees a bodily form and imagines it to be an object of the chase and therefore shoots at it, he cannot use this phrase, for he only aims at what is an object of the chase in his imagination: so says Sgh. (Msb.) A3: عَمَدَهُ, (S, O, L, K,) aor. ـِ (L,) said of disease, (S, O, L,) It pressed heavily upon him, or oppressed him; (S, O, L, K;) on the authority of IAar: (TA:) and so said of straitness, or confinement, or imprisonment, and captivity; (O;) and it caused him to fall; (O, K;) in this sense in like manner said of confinement, &c.: (O:) also, (O, K,) said of a disease, (O,) it pained him. (O, K.) And عَمَدَهُ, (K, TA,) aor., in this case, عَمُدَ, (TA, [but this, I think, requires confirmation,]) It grieved him, or made him sorrowful. (K, TA.) One says, مَا عَمَدَكَ What has grieved thee, or made thee sorrowful? (TA.) A4: عَمِدَ, (S, O, L, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. عَمَدٌ, (S, O,) said of earth, It became moistened by rain so that when a portion of it was grasped in the hand it became compacted by reason of its moisture: (S, O, L, K:) or it became moistened by rain and compacted, layer upon layer. (L.) And عَمِدَتِ الأَرْضُ, inf. n. as above, The land became moistened by the rain's sinking into the earth so that when a portion of it was grasped in the hand it became compacted by reason of its moisture. (Az.) b2: Also, (inf. n. as above, L,) said of a camel, He had the inner part of his hump broken [or bruised] by being [much] ridden, while the outer part remained whole, or sound: (S, O, L, K:) or he had his hump swollen in consequence of the galling of the saddle and the cloth beneath it, and broken [or bruised]: whence عَمِيدٌ and مَعْمُودٌ as epithets applied to a man. (L.) And عَمِدَتْ أَلْيَتَاهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوبِ His buttocks became swollen, and quivered, or throbbed, in consequence of [long and hard] riding. (En-Nadr, O, K.) And عَمِدَ, aor. and inf. n. as above, said of a pustule, It became swollen in consequence of its having been squeezed before it had become ripe, and its egg [or white globule] did not come forth.

One says, عَمِدَ عَلَيْهِ He was angry with him. (T, L.) b5: [And He wondered.] One says, أَنَا أَعْمَدُ مِنْهُ I wonder at him, or it: (S, O, L, K:) or, as some say, I am angry at him, or it: and some say that it means I lament at, or complain of, him, or it. (L.) أَعْمَدُ مِنْ سَيِّدٍ قَتَلَهُ قَوْمُهُ (S, O, L) i. e. Do I wonder at a chief whom his [own] people have slain? (L) was said by Aboo-Jahl (S, O, L) when he lay prostrated at Bedr; meaning, hath anything more happened than the slaughter of a chief by his [own] people? this is not a disgrace [to him]: he meant thereby that the destruction that befell him was a light matter to him: (A'Obeyd, L:) the saying is interrogative; (Sh, L;) أَعْمَدُ being app. contracted from أَأَعْمَدُ, by the suppression of one of the two hemzehs. (Az, L.) And أَعْمَدُ مِنْ كَيْلٍ مُحِّقَ, as related by A'Obeyd, [and thus in the O, in two copies of the S written مُحِقّ, and in a third copy omitted,] or مُحِقَ, without teshdeed, as seen by Az written in an old book, [i. e. Do I wonder at a measure incompletely filled?] is a saying of the Arabs, expl. in the book above alluded to, and, Az thinks, correctly, as meaning is it anything more than a measure incompletely filled? [and in a similar manner, but not so fully, expl. in two copies of the S and in the O:] or, accord. to IB, is it anything more than the fact of my measure's being incompletely filled? (L:) thus expl. also by ISk: and in a similar manner the saying of Aboo-Jahl. (From a marginal note in one of my copies of the S.) b6: عَمِدَ بِهِ means He kept, or clave, to it; (Ibn-Buzurj, O, K;) namely, a thing. (O.) 2 عمّد السَّيْلَ, inf. n. تَعْمِيدٌ, He stopped, or obstructed, the course of the torrent, so as to make it collect in a place, by means of earth, (O, K,) or the like, (K,) or stones. (O.) b2: See also 1, first sentence. b3: [عمّدهُ as used by the Christians, and held to be of Syriac origin, means He baptized him: see مَعْمُودِيَةٌ.]4 أَعْمَدَ see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: أَعْمَدَتَاهُ رِجْلَاهُ occurs in a trad. as meaning His legs rendered him عَمِيد, i. e. in such a state that he could not sit unless propped up by cushions placed at his sides: (L:) it is of the dial. of Teiyi, who say in like manner أَكَلُونِى البَرَاغِيثُ. (TA.) 5 تَعَمَّدَ see 1, former half, in five places.7 انعمد It became stayed, propped up, or supported; (S, O, L, K;) said of a wall, (L,) or other thing. (S, O, L.) 8 اِعْتَمَدْتُ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ I leaned, reclined, bore, or rested, upon the thing; stayed, propped, or supported, myself upon it. (S, O, L, Msb.) b2: and [hence] اعتمدت عَلَيْهِ فِى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I relied upon him in such a thing, or case; (S, O, L;) as also اِعْتَمَدْتُهُ. (L.) And اعتمدت عَلَى الكِتَابِ [and اعتمدت الكِتَابَ, and perhaps بِالكِتَابِ (see De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, sec. ed., i. 315),] (tropical:) I relied upon the book, and held to it: a metaphorical phrase, from the first above. (Msb.) b3: [Hence also the phrase, used by grammarians, يَعْتَمِدُ عَلَى مَا قَبْلَهُ (assumed tropical:) It is syntactically dependent upon what is before it; as, for instance, an enunciative upon its inchoative, an epithet upon the subst. which it qualifies, and an objective complement of a verb upon its verb. b4: اعتمد المَطَرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ, a phrase occurring in the K in art. نكح, app. meansThe rain rested upon the ground so as to soak into it: see عَمِدَ.] b5: اعتمد عَلَى السَّيْرِ He went, or journeyed, gently; went a gentle pace. (L in art. هود.) And اعتمد لَيْلَتَهُ He rode on journeying during his night. (A, O, K.) A2: See also 1, former half, in three places. b2: [اعتمدهُ بِكَذَا means قَصَدَهُ بِكَذَا i. e. He brought to him such a thing; lit. he directed, or betook, himself to him with such a thing: see two exs. in the first paragraph of art. بى.]

(L.) عَمِدٌ Earth moistened by rain so that when a portion of it is grasped in the hand it becomes compacted by reason of its moisture: (S, O, L:) or moistened by rain and compacted, layer upon layer.

My habit returned to me: but see the next preceding paragraph, first sentence]: (L, TA:) the pl. of عَادَةٌ is عَادَاتٌ (S, O, Msb) and ↓ عَادٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) or rather this is a coll. gen. n., (TA,) and ↓ عِيدٌ, (L, K, TA,) mentioned by Kr, but not of valid authority, (L, TA,) [app. a mistranscription for عِيَدٌ, like حِوَجٌ, a pl. of حَاجَةٌ,] and عَوَائِدُ, (Msb, TA,) like as حَوَائِجُ is pl. of حَاجَةٌ; but, accord. to Z and others, this last is pl. of عَائِدَةٌ, not of عَادَةٌ.

(TA. [See 4.]) You say, عَثَرَ عَلَى سِرِّ الرَّجُلِ (tropical:) He obtained knowledge of, or became acquainted with, the secret of the man [accidentally]. (TA.) [Hence,] فَإِنْ عُثِرَ عَلَى أَنَّهُمَا اسْتَحَقَّا إِثْمًا, in the Kur [v. 106], means (tropical:) But if it become known, or seen, (Ksh, Mgh, O, Bd, Jel,) that they two have done what has necessitated sin, (Ksh, Bd, Jel,) and deserved its being said of them that they were sinners.

(TA.) And اعثرهُ اللّٰهُ is syn. with أَتْعَسَهُ [of which see various explanations in art. تعس].

Thou sawest, or beheldest, thy birds; &c.: would that thou wouldst augur from them, and take warning]. (O.)

Th] says that, thus applied, it is with teshdeed to the ث [i. e. عَثَّرِىٌّ], though not in the sense here following. (TA.) b2: Also (tropical:) A man who does not occupy himself in seeking the things of the present world nor those of the world to come: (O, K, TA:) occurring in a trad., in which such is said to be the most hateful of mankind to God: (O, TA:) in this sense, sometimes written with teshdeed to the ث, (K, TA,) and thus it is accord. to Sh (O, TA) and IAar; (TA;) but correctly without teshdeed: (Th, K, TA:) and said by some to be from عَثَرِىٌّ applied to palm-trees. (O, * TA.) One says also, جَآءَ فُلَانٌ عَثَرِيًّا, meaning (tropical:) Such a one came unoccupied. (O, TA.) عَثَارٌ or عِثَارٌ: see عَاثُورٌ, in six places: A2: and for عِثَارٌ see also عِثْيَرٌ.

عَثُورٌ [Having a habit of stumbling or tripping, or of falling:] that stumbles, or trips, and falls, much or often. (Har p. 296.) عِثْيَرٌ, (S, O, K,) not عَثْيَرٌ, for there is not in the language any word of the measure فَعْيَلٌ, with fet-h to the ف, except ضَهْيَدٌ, meaning “ hardy, strong, or robust,” and this is [said to be] forged, (S, O, [but see ضهيد,]) Dust, (MA, O, K,) syn. غُبَارٌ, (O,) or عَجَاجٌ, and تُرَابٌ, (K,) and thus ↓ عِثْيَرَاتٌ is expl. by Sb; (TA;) or dust rising or spreading; (S, MA; *) as also ↓ عِثْيَرَةٌ; (TA;) and ↓ عِثَارٌ signifies the same. (MA.) b2: and Clay, or earth, (K, TA,) or dust, or bits of clay or compact earth, (TA,) which one turns over (K, TA) with the extremities of the feet (K) or of the toes, in walking, or going along, no other mark of the foot being seen: (TA:) and an obscure trace or mark, (K, TA,) said to be more obscure than such as is termed أَثَرٌ: (TA:) and so ↓ عَيْثَرٌ, with the ى put before [the ث] and with fet-h to the ع in both [of these senses: misunderstood by SM as meaning “ and with fet-h to the ع in both words,” i. e. in عثير and عيثر]: (K:) or ↓ عَيْثَرٌ signifies an obscure trace or mark: (S:) and Yaakoob mentions the saying مَا رَأَيْتُ

↓ لَهُ أَثَرًا وَلَا عَيْثَرًا and وَلَا عِثْيَرًا [app. meaning I saw not any trace of him nor any obscure trace]: (S, O:) or ولا عِثْيَرًا means, nor clay, or earth, &c., turned over by the extremities of his feet: (TA:) and it is said that ↓ ولا عَيْثَرًا means, nor bodily form. (O.) And [it is said that] مَا لَهُ أَثَرٌ وَلَا عِثْيَرٌ and ↓ ولا عَيْثَرٌ means He is not known to be a pedestrian by the appearing of his foot-mark, nor to be a horseman by his horse's raising the dust. (TA.) [See also Har p. 488.]

(TA.) عَيْثَرٌ The substance of a thing; its bodily, or corporeal, form; syn. عَيْنٌ and شَخْصٌ. (T, O, L, K, TA. [In this sense, it is said in the TA to be erroneously written in all the copies of the K عَثْيَر, with the ث before the ى; but I find it written عَيْثَر in my MS. copy of the K and also in the CK.]) See also عِثْيَرٌ, in five places.

عَاثِرَةٌ: see عَاثِرٌ.

عَاثُورٌ A pit dug for a lion or other [animal], (S, A, O,) that he may fall into it, (A,) in order that he may be taken: (S, O:) this is the primary signification: (A:) or a thing that is prepared for one to fall into it: (K:) or, as also عثار [i. e. ↓ عَثَارٌ or ↓ عِثَارٌ (see what follows)], a thing by which one is made to stumble and fall; expl. by بِهِ ↓ مَا عُثِرَ: (TA:) the pl. is عَوَاثِيرُ; whence, perhaps, عَوَاثِرُ, by suppression of the ى.

الرَّجُلِ, meaning The man was importuned for his property, or was asked for it by many persons, so that it became little. (TA.)

عَجُورٌ [A species of melon: accord. to Forskål, (Flora Aegypt. Arab., pp. lxxvi. and 168,) this name and عبدلّاوى are both applied to the cucumis chate: but accord. to Delile, (Floræ Aegypt. Illustr., no. 922,) the latter name is thus applied; and عجور (written by him as though it were عَجُّور, but it is without teshdeed,) is the name of the fruit of this species of cucumis while immature; so too says 'Abd-El-Lateef: (see De Sacy's Transl. and Notes, pp. 35 and 127; and p. 54 of the Ar. Text edited by White:) I have, however, found the name عَجُور to be commonly applied to a species different from the عَبْدَلَّاوِىّ, (which is also called عَبْدَلِّىّ, see art. عبد,) as Sonnini asserts it to be, (in his Travels in Upper and Lower Egypt, pp. 574 and 636 of the Engl. Transl., 4to., London, 1800,) and differing therefrom in shape, being, as he describes it, in some instances round, in some instances oval, and in others much elongated: the name is probably derived from the Greek ἀγγούριον (in modern Greek a>ggouri), signifying the “ water-melon ”]: it is said in the Msb that قِثَّآء is a name of what the [common] people call خِيَار and عَجُور and فَقُّوس: but it is said [by some, not by the author of the Msb,] that عَجُور signifies large قِثَّآء [q. v.].

مِعْجَرٌ signifies a turban: or a turban [wound] upon the head without a turning [of a portion thereof] beneath the jaw: (Ham p. 709:) its pl. is مَعَاجِرُ: whence الاِعْتِجَارُ. (L, TA.) b2: and مِعْجَرٌ signifies also A kind of garment, or cloth, of the fabric of El-Yemen, (Lth, K, TA,) used as the لِحَاف or مِلْحَفَة and the رِدَآء: pl. as above.

(S, O.) [See also 8 below.] عُصْرَ is used as a contraction of عُصِرَ. (S, O.) b2: [Hence,] عَصَرَ الثَّوْبَ, inf. n. as above, He wrung out the water of the garment, or piece of cloth; he forced out its water by wringing it. (Msb.) b3: And عَصَرَ الدُّمَّلَ لِتَخْرُجَ مِدَّتُهُ [He squeezed, or pressed, the pustule in order that its thick purulent matter might come forth].

(Mgh and Msb in art. خنق.) b5: and عَصَرَ, aor. ـِ (assumed tropical:) He took, or collected, the produce of the earth: from the same verb in the first of the senses expl. above: and hence, accord. to Abu-l-Ghowth, in the Kur [xii. 49], وَفَيهِ يَعْصِرُونَ (assumed tropical:) And in it they shall take, or collect, the produce of the earth: (S:) or the meaning is, and in it they shall press grapes, or olives, or the like: or they shall milk the udders.

A3: عَصَرَهُ also signifies He saved him; preserved him: and hence, in the Kur [ubi suprà], accord. to one reading, وَفِيهِ يُعْصَرُونَ [And in it they shall be saved, or preserved]. (Bd.) b2: Hence also, perhaps, the other reading, وَفِيهِ يُعْصِرُونَ And in it they shall aid, or succour, one another. (Bd.) b3: See also 8, last quarter, in two places.

A4: Also, عَصَرَهُ, (O, TA,) inf. n. عَصْرٌ, (O, K, TA,) It [or he] withheld, hindered, or prevented, him: (O, K, * TA:) one says, مَا عَصَرَكَ What withheld, hindered, or prevented, thee? (O, TA.)

[If there were, or would that there were, among our kings one] giving to us the like of what thou givest: (TA:) and another reading is, مِثْلَ مَا تَعْصِرُ; (O;) and it is expl. (by A'Obeyd, TA) as meaning, doing to us benefits (O, TA) like as thou dost: (O:) but Aboo-Sa'eed relates it thus; يُعْصَرُ فِينَا كالَّذِى تُعْصَرُ i. e. يُصَابُ مِنْهُ [app. from عَصَرَ signifying “ he pressed ” grapes and the like; and thus meaning, (assumed tropical:) from whom is gotten, among us, like what is gotten from thee; or, as it may be less freely rendered, who has his bounty drawn forth, among us, like as thou hast thine drawn forth]; and he disallowed the reading [يَعْصِرُ and] تَعْصِرُ.

(TA. [But I have substituted معاسرة for معاصرة, which latter seems to have been written by mistake for the former.]) A2: See also 8, last quarter.4 اعصر He (a man, TA) entered upon the time called العَصْر: (K, TA:) and also he entered upon the evening, or last part of the day; like اقصر. (TA.) b2: And اعصرت, (S, Msb, K,) and ↓ عصّرت, (K,) so in all the copies of the K, but in a copy of the Tahdheeb of IKtt ↓ عَصَرَتْ, without tesh-deed, (TA,) (tropical:) She (a girl, S, Msb, or woman, K) attained the عَصْر of her youth, (TA,) or [simply] attained the period of her youth, (K,) and arrived at the age of puberty: (K, TA:) or entered upon the time of puberty, and began to have the menstrual discharge; (S, O;) because of her womb's being pressed; (O;) or as though she entered upon the عَصْر of her youth: (S, O, TA:) or she attained the age of puberty: (S, IKtt:) or she had the menstrual discharge: (Msb:) or she entered upon the time of that discharge: (K:) or she approached that time; for, said of a girl, it is like رَاهَقَ said of a boy; accord. to Abu-lGhowth el-Aarábee: (S:) or she approached the age of twenty: (K:) or she became confined in the house, (K,) and had a retreat (عَصَرٌ) appointed for her, (TA,) at the time of her having the menstrual discharge: (K:) or she brought forth; (K;) in which sense it is of the dial. of Azd.

وَلَدِهِ فِى مَالِهِ [(tropical:) The father may take back what he has given to his child], the verb is made trans. by means of على because it implies the meaning of يَرْجِعُ عَلَيْهِ, and يَعُودُ عَلَيْهِ: (IAth, Mgh, O: *) or this latter trad. means, the father may forbid his child his property, and withhold it from him: (S:) and [in like manner] the former trad., the father may withhold his child from giving his property, and forbid it to him: (TA:) for اعتصر also signifies he prevented, hindered, withheld, or refused; syn. مَنَعَ.

وَيَرْضَى بِنِصْفِ الدَّيْنِ وَالأَنْفُ رَاغِمُ [And I put him off, delaying the payment of his debt, morning and evening, or from morning to evening, so that he loathes me, and is content with half of the debt, though unwilling]: meaning, when he comes to me in the first part of the day, I promise to pay him in the last part of it: (ISk, S:) or, accord. to Sgh, the right reading (instead of والانف راغم) is فِى غَيْرِ نَائِلِ [without liberality]: and the verse is by 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Ez-Zubeyr El-Asadee. (TA.) b4: Hence also (S, O) صَلَاةُ العَصْرِ, (S, O, Msb,) and ↓ صلاة العَصَرِ, (O, TA,) fem. only, and simply العَصْرُ, [and ↓ العَصَرُ,] mase. and fem., (Msb,) [The prayer of afternoon; the time of which commences about mid-time between noon and nightfall; or accord. to the Shá-fi'ees, Málikees, and Hambelees, when the shade of an object, cast by the sun, is equal to the length of that object, added to the length of the shade which the same object casts at noon; and accord. to the Hanafees, when the shadow is equal to twice the length of the object added to the length of its mid-day shadow: its end being sunset, or the time when the sun becomes red:] so called because performed in one of the عَصْرَانِ, i. e., in the last portion of the day: (O:) also called الصَّلَاةُ الوَسْطَى [accord. to some], because it is between the two prayers of the day [that of daybreak and that of noon] and the two prayers of the night [that of sunset and that of nightfall]: (Abu-l-'Abbás:) pl. [of pauc.] أَعْصُرٌ; and [of mult.] عُصُورٌ. (Msb.) [And hence likewise,] العَصْرَانِ is applied in a trad. to The prayer of daybreak and that of the عَصْر; one being made predominant over the other; (Msb, TA;) as is the case in القَمَرَانِ applied to the sun and the moon; (TA;) or they are so called because they are performed at the two extremities of the عَصْرَانِ, meaning the night and the day; (Msb, TA;) but the former is the more likely.

A2: It is now applied also to Bats' dung; which is used in medicine, administered internally; and also applied externally, mixed with vinegar, to tumours: so says Forskål in his Descr. Animalium, p. iii.: but he there states عدسيه to be an appel-lation of the bat itself.]

[Hence the phrase بِالْعَكْسِ Vice versâ.] One says to him who speaks wrongly, لاَ تَعْكِسْ [Pervert not thou]. (A.) And ↓ مُعَاكَسَةٌ with respect to language and the like is like عَكْسٌ. (TA.) b2: [Hence, said of a mirror and the like, It reflected it; namely, an object before it; because the object seen in it is reversed.] b3: From the first of the significations mentioned above is derived the expression [used by the Arabs in the “ Time of Ignorance ”], عَكْسُ البَلِيَّةِ عِنْدَ القَبْرِ [The tying, with her head turned backwards, of the she-camel that is left to die at the grave in which her master is buried]; because they used to tie her with her head turned backwards towards the part next her breast and belly, or, as some say, towards her hinder part next the back, and to leave her in that state until she died. (S, O.) And [hence, app.,] العَكْسُ also signifies The confining a beast (دَابَّة) without fodder. (TA.) Yousay also, عَكَسَ رَأْسَ البَعِيرِ, aor. ـِ He turned the head of the camel [app. meaning backwards]. (TA.) And عَكَسَ البَعِيرَ, (IKtt, O, L, Msb,) aor. ـِ (Msb, [in the L, عَكُسَ, which is evidently a mistranscription,]) inf. n. عَكْسٌ (S, IKtt, O, L, K) and عِكَاسٌ, (IKtt, L,) He tied the camel's neck to one of his fore legs while he was lying down: (IKtt, L, Msb:) or he tied the camel's fore shank to his (the camel's) arm with a rope, and then turned back the rope beneath his belly and tied it to his flank: (IDrd, O:) or he tied a cord in the fore part of the nose, or mouth, of the camel, (S, O, K,) [attaching it] to his fore legs, (K,) or to the pastern of [each of] his fore legs, (S, O,) to render him submissive, or tractable: (S, K:) or he put a halter (خِطَام) upon the head of the camel, and then tied it in a knot upon his knee, to prevent his being impetuous: (El-Jaadee:) or, accord. to an Arab of the desert, he pulled the rein (جَرِير) of the camel, and kept fast hold of his head, so that he went an easy and a quick pace: and عَكَسَ الدَّابَّةَ is said to signify he pulled the head of the beast towards him, to make him go backwards. (TA.) b4: عَكَسْتُ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَهُ i. q. رَدَدْتُهُ عَلَيْهِ [I reversed to him his affair, or case; I made his affair, or case, to become the contrary of what it was to him]. (Msb.) b5: عَكَسْتُهُ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ I prevented him from executing his affair. (Msb.) It is said in a trad. of Er-Rabeea Ibn-Kheythem, (TA,) اِعْكِسُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ عَكْسَ الخَيْلِ بِاللُّجُمِ Rein in, or refrain, (TA,) or turn back, (A, TA,) yourselves [as one reins in, &c., horses by means of the bits and bridles]. (TA.) b6: And عَكَسَ الشَّىْءَ He pulled the thing towards the ground, and pressed it, or squeezed it, hard, then smote the ground with it. (TA.) A2: One says also, عَكَسْتُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَكْسٌ, [app. meaning I poured milk upon broth; for it is said to be] from عَكِيسٌ in the first of the senses assigned to it below: (O:) or العَكْسُ signifies the pouring عَكِيس, meaning as first expl. below, upon طَعَام [or food]: (K:) and اللَّبَنَ ↓ اِعْتَكَسَ signifies the same as عَكَسَ: (TA:) [or both of these verbs are intrans.;] عَكَسَ and اعتكس from عَكِيسٌ signify the same [app. without اللَّبَنَ]. (JM.) 2 عكّس, inf. n. تَعْكِيسٌ, [He said the contrary of what he meant; spoke ironically.] (A and Mgh in art. حرس. [In the former, تعكيس is coupled with تَهَكُّمٌ, which signifies the same.]) 3 مُعَاكَسَةٌ and عِكَاسٌ [are inf. ns. of عَاكَسَ]: for the former see 1, near the beginning. b2: دُونَ ذٰلِكَ الأَمْرِ عِكَاسٌ وَمِكَاسٌ (S, A, * O, K) means[In the way to the accomplishment of that affair is] a striving to turn [therefrom]: (A, TA:) or a mutual seizing of the forelock: (A, O, K, TA:) [عِكَاسٌ and مِكَاسٌ may signify alike:] or مكاس is an imitative sequent. (O, * K, * TK.) 5 تعكّس فِى مِشْيَتِهِ [He moved along like the viper in his gait;] he went along like the viper, (Lth, O, K, TA,) as though his veins had become dry, or stiff: said of a man: sometimes a drunken man goes along thus. (Lth, O, TA.) 7 انعكس, said of a thing, i. q. ↓ اعتكس; (O, K;) each is quasi-pass. of عَكَسَهُ [and signifies, therefore, It became reversed; the last part of it became first, and the first last; or it became turned hind part before, and fore part behind: it (language) became inverted, reversed, converted, or transposed: or its order, or meaning, became perverted]. (TA.) You say, الحَدٌّ يَطَّرِدُ وَيَنْعَكِسُ [The definition is of uniform, or general, application, and may become inverted, or converted: for instance, you may say, “a man is a rational animal,” and “ a rational animal is a man ”]. (A, TA. [See also العَكْسُ in Kull p. 255.]) Yousay also, انعكس الحَالُ The state, or condition, became reversed. (TA.) 8 إِعْتَكَسَ see 7: A2: and see also 1, last sentence.

عَكْسٌ, an inf. n. used as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates; The reverse either in respect of order or of sense, i. e. the converse or the contrary, of a proposition &c. Yousay, هٰذَا عَكْسُ هٰذَا This is the reverse, &c., of this.]

(S, O, K.) عَكِيسٌ Milk poured upon broth, (O, K,) in whatever state it [the former] be. (O.) And (O, K) Fresh milk with إِهَالَة [or melted fat, &c.,] poured upon it, after which it is drunk: (S, O, K:) or flour upon which it is poured, and which is then drunk. (A'Obeyd, TA.) A2: Also A shoot of a grape-vine that is reversed (يُعْكَسُ) under the ground to [come forth at] another place. (S, O, K.) b2: لَيْلَةٌ عَكِيسَةٌ A dark night. (O, K.) b3: إِبِلٌ عَكِيسَةٌ Many camels. (O, K.) كَلَامٌ مَعْكُوسٌ Language, or a sentence, inverted, reversed, converted, or transposed: (A:) or perverted in order, or in meaning. (Msb.)

عيف

1 عَافَهُ, aor. ـَ (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) and يَعِيفُهُ, (Fr, O, K,) inf. n. عِيَافٌ, (S, Mgh, O,) or عِيَافَةٌ, (Msb, [but probably a mistranscription for the former,]) or both, or the latter is a simple subst., and the former is an inf. n., also عَيْفٌ and عَيَفَانٌ, (ISd, K,) He (a man, S, O, Msb, [and any animal,]) disliked it, or loathed it, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) namely, food, (S, O, Msb, K,) or water, (Mgh,) or beverage, (S, O, Msb, K,) and would not drink it, (S, O, K,) and sometimes it is said in relation to other things, (K,) but mostly in relation to food: (ISd, TA:) and ↓ اِعْتَافَهُ signifies the same as عَافَهُ. (TA.) A poet says, (namely, Anas Ibn-Mudrik, O, TA, and so in a copy of the S,) إِنِّى وَقَتْلِى سُلَيْكًا ثُمَّ أَعْقِلُهُ كَالثَّوْرِ يُضْرَبُ لَمَّا عَافَتِ البَقَرُ

[Verily I, in the case of my slaying Suleyk and then giving the bloodwit for slaying him, am like the bull that is beaten when the cows loathe the water]: for when the cows hold back from entering into the water and drinking, they are not beaten, because they have milk, but only the bull is beaten, in order that they may be frightened, and therefore drink. (S, O, TA. [See also the Ham, p. 416; where the former hemistich is somewhat differently related.]) And hence the saying, هٰذَا مِمَّا يَعَافُهُالطَّبْعُ [This is of the things that the natural disposition dislikes, or loathes]. (Mgh.) A2: عِفْتُ الطَّيْرَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عِيَافَةٌ, I augured from the birds, (S, O, K, TA,) good or evil, (O, K, TA,) taking warning, or the like, by considering their names, and their places of alighting (S, O, K, TA) and of passage, (TA,) and their cries: thus, correctly, as in the T and S and M and L, i. e. وَأَصْوَاتِهَا; for which the authors of the O and K have substituted وَأَنْوَائِهَا, deceived by the word مَسَاقِط in what goes before: and the verb is used in like manner in relation to gazelles or other animals passing with the right side, or the left side, turned towards the spectator: (TA:) العِيَافَةُ primarily signifies the man's throwing a pebble at a bird, or crying out at it; and, if it turn its right side towards him in flying, the auguring good from it; and if its left side, evil: (Har p. 308:) or, accord. to Az, it signifies the seeing a bird, (TA,) or a raven, or crow, (Msb, TA,) or the like, (Msb,) and auguring evil [or good] therefrom: (Msb, TA:) and also the saying [a thing] conjecturally, or surmising; without seeing anything: and it is said in a trad. to be مِنَ الجِبْتِ [expl. in art. جبت]: the verb in عِفْتُ الطَّيْرَ, as ISd says, is originally عَيِفْتُ. (TA.) A3: عَافَتِ الطَّيْرُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَيْفٌ, (S, O, K,) is like عافت having for its aor. ـُ and inf. n. عَوْفٌ, (K, TA,) i. e. (TA) The birds circled over the water, or over carcasses or corpses, and went to and fro, not going away, desiring to alight. (S, O, TA. [See also art. عوف.]) 4 أَعَافُوا [They became in the condition of finding that] their beasts disliked, or loathed, the water, and would not drink it. (ISk, O, K.) 5 تعيّف is probably used as signifying He practised عِيَافَة, i. e. auguration from birds, &c. see its part. n., below.]8 إِعْتَيَفَ see 1, first sentence.

A2: Accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, (O,) اعتاف signifies He furnished himself with provisions for journeying. (O, K.) عَيْفَةٌ is a term employed in the case when a woman brings forth and her milk is suppressed in her breast, wherefore her fellow-wife, or female neighbour, draws it, by the single sucking and the two suckings: (Nh, O, L, K, * TA: but in the K, فَتَرْضِعُهَا is erroneously put for فَتَرْضِعُهُ; and المَرَّةَ and المَرَّتَيْنِ are put for المَرَّةَ and المَرَّتَيْنِ: TA:) thus in the saying of ElMugheereh, (O, K, TA,) as expl. by himself, (O, TA,) لَا تُحَرِّمُ العَيْفَةُ [i. e. The woman's sucking once and twice in drawing the breast of another woman whose milk is suppressed after child-birth will not render unlawful the marriage of either of them to a relation of the other, nor the marriage of a relation of either to a relation of the other; as the case of regular or continued suckling of a child does]: (O, K, TA: [but in the O and CK, تُحَرَّمُ is erroneously put for تُحَرِّمُ: see a similar saying voce مَزَّةٌ:]) the action is performed in order that the obstructed channels by which the milk issues may become opened: and it is thus termed because the woman loathes it: (Az, O, K:) A'Obeyd says, We know not العَيْفَة in sucking the breast, but think it to be العُفَّة: his saying thus, however, is disapproved by Az. (O, K, * TA.) A2: عَيْفَةٌ is also the subst. from عَافَتِ الطَّيْرُ [q. v., app. signifying A circling of birds over the water, &c.]. (S, O, K.) عِيفَةٌ A good thing: (O:) or the choice, or best, or excellent, of camels or cattle or other property: (K:) like عِيمَةٌ. (O, K.) العَيَافُ and الطَّرِيدَةُ are Two games (Sh, O, K) of the boys of the Arabs of the desert: (Sh, O: [see the latter of these words:]) or the former is what is called لُعْبَةُ الغُمَيْصَآءِ, or, as in some of the copies of the K, الغُمَيْضَآءِ. (K, TA. [But I do not find elsewhere الغُمَيْصَآء as the name of a game, nor الغُمَيْضَآء in any sense.]) عَيُوفٌ: see عَائِفٌ. Applied to a camel, it means That smells the water and then leaves it, though thirsty. (S, O, K.) عَيْفانٌ: see عَائِفٌ.

عَيَفَانٌ, like تَيَّهَانٌ, (O, K,) or عَيِّفَانٌ, like تَيِّهَانٌ, (so in the CK,) One whose natural disposition, (O, K,) and habit, or wont, (K,) it is to dislike, or loathe, a thing. (O, K.) عَائِفٌ Disliking, or loathing, food or beverage: (S, TA:) and ↓ عَيُوفٌ and ↓ عَيْفَانٌ, applied to a man, signify the same as عَائِفٌ [app. in this sense: see an ex. of the former in a verse of Ibn-Mukbil cited voce سَوْفَ, last sentence]. (TA.) A2: Auguring, or divining, (S, O, K,) from birds or other things. (O, K,) b2: كَانَ عَائِفًا, said of Shureyh, in a trad, of Ibn-Seereen, means He was true in conjecture and opinion: like the saying, of him who is right in his opinion, مَا هُوَ

إِلَّا كَاهِنٌ; and of him who is eloquent in his speech, مَا هُوَ إِلَّا سَاحِرٌ. (TA.) A3: طَيْرٌ عَائِفَةٌ Birds circling over water, or over carcasses or corpses, and going to and fro, not going away, desiring to alight. (S, O.) And نُسُورٌ عَوَائِفُ [Vultures] circling over the slain, and going to and fro. (TA.) مَعِيفٌ, applied to food [and beverage], Disliked, or loathed. (Msb.) مُتَعَيِّفٌ One who practises auguration from birds [&c.]. (Har p. 564.)

عوق

1 عَاقَهُ, aor. ـُ (S, O, Msb,) inf. n. عَوْقٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) with which عَيْقٌ [as inf. n. of عَاقَهُ having يَعِيقُهُ for its aor. ] is syn.; (O and K in art. عيق;) and ↓ اعتاقهُ, (S, O,) inf. n. اِعْتِيَاقٌ; (K;) and ↓ اعاقهُ [if not a mistranscription for اعتاقهُ]; (Msb;) and ↓ عوّقهُ, (Msb,) inf. n. تَعْوِيقٌ; (S, O, K;) and ↓ تعوّقهُ; (IJ, TA;) He, or it, hindered, prevented, impeded, or withheld, him; (S, O, Msb, K, TA;) turned him back or away; retarded him; or diverted him by occupying him otherwise; (S, O, K, TA;) عَنْ كَذَا [from such a thing]; (S, O, TA;) and عَنِ الوَجْهِ الَّذِى أَرَادَهُ [from the course that he desired to pursue]. (TA.) [Accord. to the S and O and K, the first is syn. with حَبَسَهُ and صَرَفَهُ, and so is the last accord. to IJ and the TA, as is the second accord. to the S and O, and so app. are this and the fourth accord. to the K; and accord. to the S and O and K and TA, the fourth is syn. with ثَبَّطَهُ, as are also the first and second accord. to the K and TA: accord. to the Msb, the first and third and fourth are syn. with مَنَعَهُ.] And عَقَاهُ signifies the same as عَاقَهُ and عوّقهُ and اعتاقهُ. (TA.) b2: مَا عَاقَتْ عِنْدَ زَوْجِهَا وَلَا لَاقَتْ, (S,) or مَا عَاقَتْ وَلَا لَاقَتْ عِنْدَ زَوْجِهَا, (O, K,) means She did not cleave, or stick, to the heart of her husband; (S, O, K, TA;) to which IKtt adds, and did not hinder him from separating himself from her, or marrying another: and some say that it means she was not happy with her husband; near to his heart; in favour with him, or beloved by him: and some, that عَاقَتْ is an imitative adjunct to لَاقَتْ, because the latter signifies لَصِقَتْ. (TA.) 2 عَوَّقَ see the first sentence above.4 اعاقهُ: see 1, first sentence.

A2: أَعُوَقَ بِىَ الدَّابَّةُ, or الزَّادُ, The beast, or the travelling-provision, [by failing me,] disabled me from prosecuting my journey; syn. قَطَعَ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) b2: And أَعْوَقَ عَنِّى It caused me to be in difficulty (أَعْوَصَنِى), so that I was unable to accomplish it. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) 5 تعوّق He became hindered, prevented, impeded, withheld, turned back or away, retarded, or diverted by being occupied otherwise; [عَنْ أَمْرٍ

from an affair;] syn. تَثَبَّطَ. (S, O, K.) A2: تعوّقهُ: see 1, first sentence.8 اعتاقهُ: see 1, first sentence.

عَاقْ عَاقْ, (thus in copies of the K,) or [correctly] عَاقِ عَاقِ, like غَاقِ غَاقِ, (Lh, O,) The cry of the crow; (Lh, O, K;) an imitation thereof. (K.) عَوْقٌ [an inf. n.: and also used as an epithet, signifying] One who hinders, prevents, impedes, &c., [see 1,] people from that which is good; as also ↓ عَوْقَةٌ [but app. in an intensive sense].

(O, K.) b5: And Time: so in the saying, لَا يَكُونُ ذٰلِكَ آخِرَ عَوْقٍ [That will not be to the end of time]. (K.) عُوقٌ A man in whom, (O,) or with whom, (K,) is no good; (O, K;) as also ↓ عَوْقٌ; (K;) occurring in the saying of Ru-beh, فِدَاكَ مِنْهُمْ كُلُّ عَوْقٍ أَصْلَدُ [May every one of them in whom, or with whom, is no good, who is niggardly, be thy ransom]: (TA:) pl. أَعْوَاقٌ. (K.) b2: See also عَائِقٌ.

(TA in art. لوق.) عُوَقٌ and ↓ عُوَقَةٌ (S, O, K) and ↓ عِوَقٌ, (K,) which last is from IAar, and is by some written ↓ عَوِقٌ, (TA,) and ↓ عَيِّقٌ and ↓ عَيِّقٌ, this last with fet-h, (K,) i. e. with fet-h and teshdeed to the ى, (TA, [but in the CK عَيْقٌ,]) A man having the quality of hindering, preventing, impeding, retarding, or diverting by otherwise occupying, (S, O, K, TA,) men from that which is good, and his companions, because accidents diverting him from his course prevent his attaining the object of his want: (TA: [see also عَوْقٌ:]) and (O, K) IDrd says, (O,) ↓ عُوَّقٌ, (O, K,) thus with tesh-deed accord. to El-Arzenee and Aboo-Sahl ElHarawee, applied to a man, (O,) signifies one who hinders, prevents, impedes, &c., men from [accomplishing] their affairs: (O, K:) or it signifies, (K,) or signifies also, accord. to IDrd, (O,) a coward, or cowardly; (O, K;) in this sense peculiar to the dial. of Hudheyl; (O;) and so عُوَقٌ: and عُوَقٌ is also syn. with ↓ عَائِقٌ: (K:) thus it means accord. to Aboo-Usámeh, as an epithet applied to a man: (O:) and ↓ عُوَّقٌ (O, K) accord. to him (O) is pl. of ↓ عَائِقٌ: (O, K:) and عُوَقٌ and ↓ عُوَّقٌ both signify also one whom affairs cease not to hinder, prevent, impede, &c., from [accomplishing] the object of his want: and one who, when he purposes a thing, does it: (K:) thus they are expl. by Ibn-'Abbád; as though having two contr. significations.

عَوْقَةٌ: see عَوْقٌ.

(TA.) عَوِيقٌ The sound of the sheath of the penis of the horse; as also وَعِيقٌ. (TA.) عَائِقٌ and ↓ عَوْقٌ and ↓ عُوقٌ and ↓ عَوِقٌ all signify the same; (K, TA;) i. e. [A person, or thing,] hindering, preventing, impeding, withholding, turning back or away, retarding, or diverting by occupying otherwise: (TA:) see also عُوَقٌ, in two places: the pl. of the first is عُوَّقٌ. (O, K.) One says, عَاقَنِى عَائِقٌ (K, TA) and عَقَانِى عَاقٍ (TA) [A hinderer or hindrance, or an impeder or impediment, &c., hindered me, or impeded me, &c.,] عَنِ الأَمْرِ الَّذِى أَرَدْتُ [from the thing that I desired to do]. (TA.) And عَوَائِقُ الدَّهْرِ signifies The accidents, or casualties, of time or fortune, that divert [or hinder or impede] by busying or occupying or employing: (S, O, K, TA:) the former noun being pl. of عَائِقَةٌ, or anomalously of ↓ عَوْقٌ. (TA.) عُوَّقٌ: see عُوَقٌ, in three places.

عَيِّقٌ and عَيَّقٌ: see عُوَقٌ, first signification. b2: It is also used as an imitative sequent: one says ضَيِّقٌ لَيِّقٌ عَيِّقٌ (K) or ضَيِّقٌ عَيِّقٌ لَيِّقٌ (IAar, TA) [app. meaning Very niggardly]: or, as some say, عَيِّقٌ signifies as expl. voce عُوَقٌ, and is not an imitative sequent. (TA.) العَيُّوقُ A red [?] bright star in, or on, the right [?] edge of the Milky Way, following, not preceding, الثُّرَيَّا [the Pleiades]; rising before الجَوْزَآء [by which may be meant either Orion or Gemini]: (TA:) when it has risen, it is known that الثُّرَيَّا has risen: (O:) [it is the well-known name of the star Capella, notwithstanding its being described above as “ red,” and as in, or on, the “ right ” of the Milky Way; for Capella, though not now red, has been observed to alter in brightness by astronomers in very recent times; and I think that the word rendered above “ right,”

which is أَيْمَن, is probably a mistranscription for أَيْسَر, i. e. “ left: ” the description here following plainly indicates Capella:] it is the bright star [a] upon the left shoulder of Auriga: that upon the left elbow is العَنْزُ: the two on the left wrist together with العيّوق are called العِنَازُ: [see عَنْزٌ:] it is also called the رَقِيب [or watcher] of الثُّرَيَّا, because it rises therewith at many places: and the star on the right shoulder [i. e.

β] with the two upon the ankle-joints [which may be θ and ι, for the constellation, is variously figured,] are called تَوابِعُ العَيُّوقِ: (Kzw:) it is [said to be] called العيّوق because of its [being regarded as] impeding الدَّبَرَان from meeting الثُّرَيَّا: (TA:) عَيُّوق, (Lth, Az, S, O,) is originally عَيْوُوق, (S, O,) its medial radical being و; or it may be ى. (Lth, Az, TA.) One says also, هٰذَا عَيُّوقُ طَالِعًا [meaning This is العَيُّوقُ rising]; suppressing the ال, but meaning it to be understood, and therefore leaving the word itself in its former determinate state [without tenween]. (IAar, TA.) مُعْوِقٌ One who is disappointed of attaining his object [by the failing of his beast or of his travelling-provision: see أَعْوَقَ]; syn. مُخْفِقٌ. (Ibn-' Abbád, O, K.) b2: And Hungry.

(Ksh and Bd in lxxi. 23.) [See also وَدٌّ.]
