(Msb.) نُسَارِيَّةٌ The eagle; syn. عُقَابٌ: (IAar, K:) likened to the نَسْر. (IAar, TA.) [Hence it appears that, accord. to IAar, the نَسْر is not the eagle.]

(TA.) It is said in a trad., مَنْ نُوقِشَ الحِسَابَ عُدِّبَ, (S,) or هَلَكَ, (M,) He with whom the utmost is done in reckoning (S, M,) is punished, (S,) or perishes. (M.)
