A2: خَبُثَ, accord. to Z, i. q. خَبُثَ [q. v.]: occurring in a trad. (TA.) [See خَبِيتٌ.]4 اخبت He became in what is termed خَبْتٌ [q. v.]. (A, TA.) b2: And, (S, Msb, K, TA,) [hence, or] from خَبْتٌ, (Ksh and Bd in xi. 25, and TA,) or from خَبَتَ ذِكْرُهُ, (L,) inf. n. إِخْبَاتٌ, (S, Msb,) (tropical:) He (a man, Msb, TA) was, or became, lowly, humble, or submissive, (S, Msb, K, TA,) in heart, (Msb,) and obedient, (TA,) لِلّٰهِ to God. (S, TA.)

(S, TA.) خَبِيتٌ A thing that is contemptible, or despicable; (K, TA;) bad, corrupt, abominable, vile, base, or disapproved; [&c.;] (TA;) and [thus] i. q. خَبِيثٌ. (As, K.) The Jew of Kheyber says, يَنْفَعُ الطَّيِّبُ القَلِيلُ مِنَ الرِّزْ قِ وَلَا يَنْفَعُ الكَثِيرُ الخَبِيتُ

[The lawful, but small, supply of the means of subsistence is beneficial, but the large and unlawful is not beneficial]. (TA.) Kh asked As respecting الخبيت in this verse; and the latter replied that the poet meant الخَبِيث; the former word being of the dial. of Kheyber: but Kh rejoined, “If so, the poet would have said الكتير: it behooves you only to say that the people of Kheyber change ث into ت in some words: ” AM thinks that الخبيت in this verse is a mistranscription for الخَتِيت, which means the thing that is “ contemptible and bad,” and is syn. with الخَسِيس. (TA.) b2: It is also applied to a man; meaning as above; or Bad, corrupt, vitious, or depraved. (TA.) مُخْبِتٌ (assumed tropical:) Still; motionless: as also مُخْبِطٌ. (TA in art. خمد.)

(TA.) One says of certain food, تَخْبُثُ عَنْهُ النَّفْسُ (tropical:) [The soul, or stomach, becomes heavy, or heaves, or becomes agitated by a tendency to vomit, in consequence of it].

Ex., from a trad., يَكُونُ فِى النَّاسِ مُوتَانٌ كَقُعَاصِ الغَنَمِ There will be, among men, a mortality, or much death, [or mortal disease], like the قُعَاص that befalls sheep or goats. (TA.) مَوَتَانٌ (assumed tropical:) Inanimate things, or goods; dead stock; such as lands and houses [&c.]; (S;) contr. of حَيَوَانٌ [q. v.] (S, K.) It is made of this measure to agree in measure with its contr.

حيوان: both these words deviate from the constant course of speech; being of a measure properly belonging to inf. ns. (TA.) [See also مَوَاتٌ.] b2: إِشْتَرِ المَوَتَانَ وَلا تَشْتَرِ الحَيَوَانَ Buy lands and houses [or the like], and buy not slaves and beasts of carriage [&c.]. (S.) b3: رَجُلٌ يَبِيعُ المَوَتَانَ A man who sells utensils or furniture or the like, and anything but what has life. (L.) b4: See also مَوْتٌ.

مَوَاتٌ That wherein is no spirit or life; an inanimate thing. (S, K.) [See also مَوَتَانٌ.]

b2: مَوَاتٌ (you say أَرْضٌ مَوَاتٌ, TA,) (tropical:) Land that has no owner (S, K) of mankind, and of which no use is made, or from which no advantage is derived, (S,) and in which is no water: such as is also called ↓ أَرْضٌ مَيْتَةٌ: (En-Nawawee:) land that has not been sown, nor cultivated, nor occupied by any man's camels

&c.: ↓ مَوَتَانٌ signifies the same as مُوَاتٌ (مَوَاتٌ?), namely, land that is no man's property; and is also written مَوْتَانٌ: (L:) or مَوَتَانٌ signifies land that has not yet been brought into a state of cultivation: (Fr, S, L, K:) in a trad. it is said, that such land is the property of God and his Apostle; and whosoever brings into a state of cultivation such land, to him it belongs. (S.) مُوَاتٌ: see مَوْتٌ and مُوتَانٌ.

مَيِّتٌ and ↓ مَيْتٌ signify the same, [Dead, or dying]: (Zj, S, K:) the former is originally مَيْوِتٌ, of the measure فَيْعِلٌ: (S:) the latter is contracted from the former; and is both masc. and fem.; (Zj, S;) as is also the former. (Zj.) 'Adee Ibn-Er-Raalà says, ↓ لَيْسَ مَنْ مَاتَ فَاسْتَرَاحَ بِمَيْتٍ

إِنَّمَا المَيْتُ مَيِّتُ الأَحْيَآءِ [He who has died and become at rest is not dead: the dead is only the dead of the living]. (S, TA.) Or ↓ مَيْتٌ signifies One who has died (actually, TA,); and مَيِّتٌ, as also ↓ مَائِتٌ, one who has not yet died, (K,) but who is near to dying: or, accord. to a verse cited by AA, to Kh, مَيْتٌ is applied to him who is borne to the grave; [i. e., who is dead, or lifeless]; and مَيِّتٌ, to him who [is dying, but] has life in him. (TA.) Fr says, you say of him who has not died, إِنَّهُ مَائِتٌ, عَنْ قَلِيلٍ ↓ and مَيِّتٌ; but you do not say of him who has died ↓ هذا مَائِتٌ: (S:) but some say, that this is an error, and that مَيِّتٌ is applicable to that which will soon die. Those who assert that ميّت is applicable only to the living adduce the following words of the Kur, [xxxix. 31,] إِنَّكَ مَيِّتٌ وَإِنَّهُمْ مَيِّتُونَ: (TA:) i. e. Verily thou wilt die, and verily they will die. (Msb.) MF observes, that مَيْتٌ is asserted to be contracted from مَيِّتٌ; and if so, that there can be no difference in their meanings: that the making a difference between them is contrary to analogy; agreeably with which, they should be like هَيْنٌ and هَيِّنٌ, and لَيْنٌ and لَيِّنٌ: and also contrary to what has been heard from the Arabs; for they made no difference in their use of these two words. (TA.) [See also what is said of مَيْتَةٌ, below.] The pls. are أَمْوَاتٌ and مَوْتَى and مَيِّتُونَ and مَيْتُونَ. (S, K.) The first of these is pl. of مَيِّتٌ, and consequently of مَيْتٌ, because this latter is contracted from the former: as مَيِّتٌ is of the measure فَيْعِلٌ, and this measure resembles فَاعِلٌ, it has received a form of pl. which is sometimes applicable to the measure فاعل: (Sb:) or اموات is [only] pl. of مَيْتٌ. (Msb.) [The second form (which is applied to rational beings, Msb,) is also pl. of ميّت and ميت.] The third and fourth are [only] applied to rational beings. (Msb.) The fem. epithet is مَيِّتَةٌ and مَيْتَةٌ and مَيِّتٌ (K, TA) and مَيْتٌ. (TA; and so in some copies of the K, in the place of مَيِّتٌ.) مَيِّتَةٌ is an epithet applied to a female rational being; [and its pl. is مَيِّتَاتٌ:] مَيْتَةٌ, to a female brute, for the sake of distinction; and its pl. is مَيْتَاتٌ: the latter is contracted because it is more in use than the former epithet applied to a female rational being: (Msb:) the pl. of ميّت and ميت as fem. epithets is as above [أَمْوَاتٌ and مَوْتَى]. (TA.) b2: ↓ مَيْتَةٌ signifies That which has not been slaughtered (AA, S, K) [in the manner prescribed by the law, i. e., carrion]: or that of which the life has departed without slaughter: so in the classical language and in the language of practical law: all such is unlawful to be eaten, except fish and locusts, which are lawful by universal consent of the Muslims: (En-Nawawee:) or, in the common acceptation of the language of law, what has died a natural death, or been killed in a state or manner different from that prescribed by the law, either the agent or the animal killed not being such as is so prescribed; as that which is sacrificed to an idol, or slaughtered [by a person] in the state of إِحْرَام, or not by having the throat cut, and that which it is unlawful to eat, such as a dog: (Msb:) [and any separated part of an animal of which the flesh is not lawful food: see عَاجٌ.] b3: بَلَدٌ مَيِّتٌ A tract of land without herbage, or pasture, (Msb, in art. بلد.) b4: مَيِّتٌ (assumed tropical:) An unbeliever; like as حَىٌّ means a Muslim. (TA, in art. حى.) مَيِّتٌ and مَيْتٌ are employed in various other senses, agreeably with the senses of the verb.]

مَائِتٌ: see مَيِّتٌ. b2: فُلَانٌ مَائِتٌ فى الغَمِّ (tropical:) [Such a one is dying, or absorbed, in grief]. (TA.) b3: مَوْتٌ مَائِتٌ A severe, painful, or violent, death: (TA:) like لَيْلٌ لَائِلٌ: the latter word being added to corroborate the former. (S.) مَمَاتٌ: see مَوْتٌ.

مُمِيتٌ and مُمِيتَةٌ (tropical:) A woman, and a she-camel, that has lost her offspring by death: (S:) and a woman who has lost her husband by death: (TA:) pl. مَمَاوِيتُ. (S.) مُتَمَاوِتٌ (tropical:) [Feigning himself dead]. b2: (tropical:) An epithet applied to A hypocritical devotee, (S, K,) who pretends to be like one dead in his devotion, who lowers his voice, and moves little: as though he were one who put on the outward appearance of devotees, and constrained himself to characterize himself by the characteristics of the dead, that he might be imagined to be weak by reason of much devotion. (TA.) مُسْتَمِيتٌ A courageous man, who seeks, or courts death: (K:) a man who seeks to be slain; who cares not, in war, for death: (S:) abandon-ing, or devoting, himself to death, (مسْتَرْسِلٌ لِلْمَوْتِ,) as also مُسْتَقْتِلٌ. (A.) b2: (assumed tropical:) Abandoning, or devoting himself to a thing, or affair; syn. مُسْتَرْسِلٌ لِأَمْرٍ. (S, K.) b3: هَوَ مُسْتَمِيتٌ إِلَى كَذَا, as also مُسْتَهْلِكٌ, (tropical:) He [is devoted to such a thing, so that he] imagines that he shall die if he do not attain it. (A.) b4: Ru-beh says, وَزَبَدُ البَحْرِ لَهُ كَتِيتُ وَاللَّيْلُ فَوْقَ المَاءِ مُسْتَمِيتُ [And to the froth of the sea there was a sound like that of boiling, and night impended over the water]. (S.) [It is implied in the S that مستميت here signifies مُسْتَرْسِل.] b5: (assumed tropical:) One who feigns himself to be insane, or possessed by a devil; not being really so. (TA.) b6: (assumed tropical:) One who feigns lowliness, or submissiveness, in voice, &c., to this man until he feeds him, and to this until he feeds him, and, when he is satiated, is ungrateful to his benefactors. (TA.) b7: (assumed tropical:) One who makes a show of being good and quiet or tranquil, and is not so in reality. (Ibn-El-Mubárak.) A2: مُسْتَمِيتٌ The thin pellicle that adheres to the white of an egg. (K.) [See 10: and see also مُسْتَمِيثٌ, in art. ميث.]

(IAar, with reference to the former verb.) b3: مَرَجَ, aor. ـُ (assumed tropical:) He marred, or spoiled, his affair. (TA.) b4: مرِجَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. مَرَجٌ, (tropical:) It (e. g. a deposit, S, and a covenant, and religion, TA) became corrupt; impaired; spoiled; marred; or disordered.

(TA.) b2: Also A leguminous plant that grows in the season called الرَّبِيع, (K,) rising to the height of a cubit, with red twigs, and broad round leaves, very dense, juicy, satisfying thirst, and having the property of making the milk of animals that feed upon it to become abundant: (TA:) n. un. with ة.

And in the Kur, [lii. 9,] يَوْمَ تَمُورُ السَّمَآءُ مَوْرًا On the day when the heaven shall actually be in a state of commotion, or tumult: so accord. to Ed-Dahhák: or shall move from side to side: so accord. to AO and Akh: (S:) or shall come and go; or move to and fro; or reel.

نَسَآءٌ Length of life. (Akh, S, K.) b2: The Fakeeh of the Arabs [El-Hárith Ibn-Keledeh, as said in the Mz, close of 39th نوع, where the following is quoted,] says, مَنْ سَرَّهُ النَّسَآءُ وَلَا نَسَآءَ فَلْيُخَفِّفِ الرِّدَآءَ وَلْيُبَاكِرِ الغَدَآءَ وَلْيُؤَخِّرِ العَشَآءَ وَلْيُقِلَّ غِشْيَانَ النِّسَآءِ [Let him whom length of life rejoiceth (but there is no long endurance in life) lighten his debts, and make his morning-meal early, and delay his evening-meal, and take little enjoyment in women]: (S, * TA:) الرداء here means debt. (T, M, TA, in art. ردى, where this saying is cited with some variations.) نَسِىْءٌ, of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, (S,) A month which the Arabs, in the time of paganism, postponed: (K:) the doing of which is forbidden in the Kur, ix. 37. (S.) b2: Also, as an inf. n. of نَسَأَ, (which it is also said to be in the L,) The postponing of a month: i. e., the postponing of the sacredness of a month; transferring it to another month. When the Arabs returned from Mina, [after the accomplishment of the pilgrimage,] it was customary for a man of the tribe of Kináneh to arise and say, أَنَا الَّذِى لَا يُرَدُّ لِى قَضَآءٌ [“ I am he whose decree is not to be rejected ”]; (S;) or إِنِّى لَا أُحَابُ وَلَا أُعَابُ وَلَا يُرَدُّ قَوْلِى, or ولا يردّ مَا قَضَيْتُ بِهِ; [“ Verily I am not to be accused of a sin, nor am I to be charged with a fault, nor is my saying, (or decree,) to be rejected; ”] (TA;) whereupon they would say, أَنْسِئْنَا شَهْرًا [“ Postpone for us a month ”]; i. e., “ Postpone for us the sacredness of El-Mo- harram, and transfer it to Safar: ” for they disliked that three months during which they might not make predatory expeditions should come upon them consecutively, as their subsistence was obtained by such expeditions: so he made ElMoharram free from restriction to them. (S.) [But this, as appears from what is said in the Kur, ix. 37, was not done every year.] The tribes of Teiyi and Khath'am did not observe the sacred months; therefore the نَاسِئ (or postponer) proclaimed it lawful to slay them therein, when they were aggressors. (TA.) b3: [The term نَسِىْء appears also to have been applied to The postponement of the time of the pilgrimage; which was another custom of the Pagan Arabs, mentioned under this word in the TA.] The Arabs, liking that the day of their return from pilgrimage should always be at one season of the year, postponed it every year eleven days; at the same time keeping sacred the two months in which the pilgrimage took place, and the month next after those two, and also the month of Rejeb, at whatever season this fell. (TA.) [For the same purpose, at one time, they used to intercalate a month in the third and sixth and eight of every eight years. See Kur, ix. 36, where the prohibition of this custom is implied; and Sale's Prel. Disc., § vii.]. b4: See نَسْءٌ. b5: نَسِىْءٌ (K, TA) and ↓ نَسِيْئَةٌ and ↓ نُسْأَةٌ, (S, K,) like كُلْأَةٌ, (S,) A postponement, or delay, as to the time of the payment of a debt, or of the price of a thing sold, &c. (S, K, TA.) The first is a subst.; (K;) and also an inf. n.; (L;) [and each of the others seems to be sometimes used as such]. b6: ↓ بَاعَهُ بِنَسِيْئَةٍ, and ↓ بِنُسْأَةٍ, (as also بِكُلْأَةٍ, S,) He sold it on credit; for payment to be made at a future period. (S, K, TA.) نَسِيْئَةٌ: see نَسِىْءٌ. b2: Also, A debt of which the payment is deferred by the creditor to a future period. (TA.) b3: A sale upon credit, in which the payment is deferred to a certain, or definite, period. (TA.) نَاسِئٌ, pl. نَسَأَةٌ (S) and نَاسِئُونَ, (TA,) One whose office it was to perform the act called نَسِىْء; i. e., the postponing of a month: (S, TA:) he was also called قَلَمَّسٌ, pl. قَلَامِسُ. (TA.) A2: نَاسِئٌ Anything fat: or beginning to grow fat: in the K it is said, كُلُّ نَاسِئٍ سَمِينٌ: in the L, كلّ سمين ناسئ, which is more proper. (TA.) مَنْسَأَةٌ: see 1. b2: صِلَةُ الرَّحِمِ مَثْرَاةٌ فِى المَالِ مَنْسَأَةٌ فِى الأَثَرِ [Union with kindred is a means of multiplying wealth, a means of prolonging one's memorial].

For مِنْسَأَتَهُ, in the Kur, xxxiv. 13, some read مِنْ سَأَتِهِ; i. e. “ from, or of, the end of his staff; ” سأَة originally signifying the “ bent part at each end of a bow; ” (Fr, TA, &c.;) and being here used tropically. (TA.) This reading is disapproved by the author of the K. but is supported by good authorities. (TA.) مُنْتَسَأٌ An interval; a distance; a space. (S.) إِنَّ لِى عَنْكَ لَمُنْتَسَأٌ Verily I am far from thee. (S.)

(A.) b3: وَجَأَهُ فَنَثَرَ أَمْعَآءَهُ (tropical:) He smote him with a knife and scattered his intestines].

And نَثَرَ, (Fr, T, IAth, Mgh, Msb,) aor. ـِ (T, IAth,) inf. n. نَثْرٌ (T, Mgh) [and app. نَثِيرٌ, as above], (tropical:) He [a man] blew his nose; ejected the mucus from his nose; syn. امْتَخَطَ; (IAth;) as also ↓ استنثر: (S, K, art. مخط:) and he ejected what was in his nose, of mucus, and of that which annoyed or hurt him, in performing the ablution termed وُضُوْء; (Sgh, TA;) as also ↓ أَنْثَرَ, accord. to some: (TA:) or ↓ أَنْثَرَ signifies he ejected what was in his nose; or he emitted his breath from his nose; or he introduced the water into his nose; as also ↓ انتثر and ↓ استنثر: (K:) but this last explanation is outweighed in authority; the form ↓ انثر is disallowed by the leading lexicologists; and the author of the K, in respect of this form, follows Sgh, without due consideration: (TA:) [accord. to the more approved opinion,) نَثَرَ signifies he scattered what was in his nose by the breath; as also ↓ انتثر and ↓ استنثر: (S:) or, as some of the learned say, he snuffed up water, and then ejected what was in it, of anything annoying or hurting, or of mucus; as also ↓ استنثر: (IAar, T, Mgh:) or ↓ استنثر (T, M, IAth, K) and ↓ انتثر, (K,) he snuffed up water, and then ejected it (T, M, IAth, K) by the breath of the nose: (T, M, K:) accord. to some, نَثَرَ and ↓ استنثر signify he (a person performing وُضُوْء) snuffed up water: but others say that the latter signifies he ejected what was in his nose, of mucus &c.; agreeably with a trad. to be cited below: (Msb:) IAar says, that ↓ استنثر signifies he snuffed up water, and put in motion the نَثْرَة, or end of the nose, in purification: (T [in the Mgh, this explanation is ascribed to Fr:]) and Fr, that نَثَرَ and ↓ انتثر and ↓ استنثر signify he put in motion the نَثْرَة, in purification.

It is said of Mohammad, كَانَ يَسْتَنْشِقُ ثَلَاثًا فِى كُلِّ مَرَّةٍ يَسْتَنْثِرُ [He used to snuff up water three times, every time ejecting it; &c.] and this indicates that ↓ استنثر differs from استنشق. (T, Mgh, Msb.) And it is said in a trad., إِذَا اسْتَنْشَقْتَ فَانْثُرْ, (S, Msb,) and فَانْثِرْ, with the conjunctive ا, and with damm and kesr to the ث, (Msb,) When thou snuffest up water, scatter what is in thy nose by the breath; (S;) or eject what is in thy nose, of mucus, &c.: (Msb:) or, as A'Obeyd relates it, ↓ فَأَنْثِرْ; inf. n. إِنْثَارٌ: (Msb:) or, as he relates it إِذَا تَوَضَّاتَ فَأَنْثِرْ, with the disjunctive ا; and he does not explain it; but the lexicologists do not allow ↓ أَنْثَرَ, from الإِنْثَارُ; one only says, نَثَرَ and ↓ انتثر and ↓ استنثر.

No instance of ↓ استنثر used transitively has been heard, except in a trad. of El-Hasan Ibn-'Alee, أَنْفَهُ ↓ اِسْتَنْثَرَ [He ejected the contents of his nose; or he blew his nose]; as though the root [نَثَرَ] were regarded in it, or as though it were made to import the meaning of نَقَّى.

نقر

1 نَقَرَ, (S, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. نَقْرٌ, (S, Msb,) He (a bird) pecked, or picked up, (S, A, Msb, K,) a grain, (S,) or grains, (A, Msb,) from this place and that, (A, K,) بِمِنْقَارِهِ with his beak. (A.) [Accord. to the TA, the addition “ from this place and that,” which is found in the K and A, and in one place in the S, seems to be unnecessary. And ↓ انتقر signifies the same: see 8, in art. قب.] b2: [Hence, because of the sure aim with which a bird pecks a thing,] the same verb, having the same [aor. and] inf. n. signifies, (tropical:) It (an arrow) hit the butt. (Msb.) And He (an archer) hit the butt, without making his arrow to pass through, partly or wholly. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] (assumed tropical:) He took [or picked] a thing, as, for instance, food, with the finger. (TA.) b4: Also, (M, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (M, TA,) He struck a thing (IKtt, K, * TA,) with a thing: (IKtt, TA:) [generally, he struck, knocked, or pecked, a thing with a pointed instrument, like as a bird strikes a thing with its beak:] he struck [or pecked] a mill-stone, or a stone, &c., with a مِنْقَار [which is a pick, or a kind of pickaxe; i. e., he wrought it into shape, and roughened it in its surface, with a pick]. (M, TA.) b5: [Hence,] (tropical:) He wrote [or engraved writing] فِى حَجَرٍ upon a stone. (A, K.) Whence the saying, التَّعْلِيمُ فِى الصِّغَرِ كَالنَّقْرِ عَلَى الحَجَرِ [or, as in a verse of Niftaweyh, فِى الحَجَرِ, i. e., Teaching in infancy is like engraving writing upon stone]. (TA.) b6: He struck [or fillipped] a man's head, and in like manner a lute, and a tambourine, with his finger. (TA.) You say also أُذُنَهُ ↓ أَنْقَرَ, meaning, He struck [or fillipped] his ear with his finger. (AA, in TA, art. نطب.) b7: [Hence,] نَقَرَ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. نَقْرٌ, as appears from what follows;] and ↓ أَنْقَرَ; (tropical:) [He made a snapping with his thumb and middle finger;] he struck his thumb against the end of the middle finger and made a sound with them. (A.) [And in like manner the former verb used transitively; as in the following instance:] وَضَعَ طَرَفَ إِبْهَامِهِ عَلَى بَاطِنِ سَبَّابَتِهِ ثُمَّ نَقَرَهَا [(tropical:) He put the end of his thumb against the inner side of his first finger, then made a snapping with it]. (TA.) See also نَقْرٌ, below. b8: [Hence also,] نَقَرَ بِالدَّابَّةِ, (T, A, TS,) or بِالفَرَسِ, (S,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. نَقْرٌ; (T, S, TS;) and ↓ أَنْقَرَ, (A, TS,) inf. n. إِنْقَارٌ; (TS;) (tropical:) He made a [smacking or] slight sound, to put in motion the [beast or] horse, by making his tongue adhere to his palate and then opening [or suddenly drawing it away]: (S:) or he struck with his tongue the place of utterance of the letter ن and made a [smacking] sound [by suddenly withdrawing his tongue]: (A:) نَقْرٌ signifies the making the end of the tongue to adhere to the palate, then making a sound [by suddenly withdrawing it]: (M, K:) or one's putting his tongue above his central incisors, at the part next the palate, then making a smacking sound [so I render ثُمَّ يَنْقُر]: (TA:) [the sounds thus described, which are nearly the same, are commonly made by the Arabs in the present day, in urging beasts of carriage:] or an agitation of the tongue (K, TA) in the mouth, upwards and downwards: (TA:) or a sound, (so in some copies of the K and in the TA,) or slight sound, (so in the TS [as mentioned in the TA] and in some copies of the K) by which a horse is put in motion: (TS, K:) or نَقَرَ بِلِسَانِهِ, accord. to IKtt, signifies he struck his palate with his tongue to quiet the horse: but this is at variance with what is said by Az, J, and ISd, and requires consideration. (TA.) A poet, (S,) Fedekee El-Minkaree, (K,) i. e., 'Obeyd Ibn-Máweeyeh, of the tribe of Teiyi, (TA,) uses النَّقُرْ for النَّقْرْ, meaning النَّقْرُ بِالْخَيْلِ [The smacking with the tongue to urge the horses]: pausing after the word, at the end of a hemistich, he transfers the vowel of the ر to the ق, (S, K,) agreeably with the dial. of certain of the Arabs, (TA,) that the hearer may know it to be the vowel of the [final] letter when there is no pause; (S;) like as you say, هٰذَا بَكْرُ and مَرَرْتُ بِبَكِرْ: but this is not done when the word is in the accus. case (S, K:) and if you choose, you may make the final letter quiescent in pausing, though it is preceded by a quiescent letter. (S.) b9: Hence also, فَإِذَا نُقِرَ فِى النَّاقُورِ [Kur, lxxiv. 8,] (tropical:) For when the horn shall be blown: (S, * A, * Bd, K:) from نَقْرٌ signifying (tropical:) the making a sound: originally, striking, which is the cause of sound. (Bd.) See also نَاقُورٌ, below. b10: Also, نَقَرَ He bored, perforated, or made a hole through or in or into, a thing: (TA:) or he did so with a مِنْقَار: (S:) and, inf. n. نَقْرٌ, he hollowed out, or excavated, a piece of wood. (Mgh, Msb.) نُقِرٌ and ↓ اِنْتَقَرَ, (so in some copies of the K,) or ↓ أُنْتُقِرَ, (so in other copies of the K and in the TA,) both in the pass. form, (TA,) said of stone and of wood and the like, signify alike, (K,) It was bored, or perforated, or it had a hole made through or in or into it: (TA:) [and it was hollowed out.] Yousay, نَقَرَ البَيْضَةَ عَنِ الفَرْخِ, (K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. نَقْرٌ, (TA.)

(Lth, A, K.) And in like manner, ↓ انتقرت السُّيُولُ نُقَرًا The torrents left hollows in the ground, in which water was retained. (TA.) b11: Hence, نَقَرَ عَنِ الأَمْرِ; (Msb;) and عَنْهُ ↓ نقّر, (S, K,) inf. n. تَنْقِيرٌ; (S;) and ↓ نقّرهُ; and ↓ تنقّرهُ: and ↓ انتقرهُ; (K;) (tropical:) He searched or inquired into the thing; investigated, scrutinized, or examined, it; (S, Msb, K, TA;) and endeavoured to know it: (TA;) and so نَقَرَ عَنِ لخَبَرِ (tropical:) he investigated the news, and endeavoured to know it. (A.) [and hence,] السَّهْمَ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ ↓ نقّر. (K, in art. حن,) or عَلَى الإِبْهَامِ, inf. n. تَنْقِيرٌ, (K, in art. دوم,) [He tried the sonorific quality of the arrow by turning it round between his fingers, or upon his thumb: see حَنَّانٌ, and دَرَّ السَّهْمُ, and see also 4, in art. دوم: or] نقّر السَّهْمَ signifies he made the arrow to produce a sharp sound [by turning it round between his fingers, or] upon his thumb. (TK, in art. دوم.) 2 نَقَّرَ see 1, last two sentences.4 أَنْقَرَ see 1, in three places, in the first half.

A2: انقر عَنْهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. إِنْفَارٌ, (TA,) He refrained, forbore, abstained, or desisted, from it or him; he left or relinquished, it or him. (S, * K.) Hence the saying, ضَرَبَهُ فَمَا أَنْقَرَ عَنْهُ حَتَّى قَتَلَهُ He beat him and left him not until be killed him. (TA.) And hence the saying of I'Ab, مَاكَانَ اللّٰهُ لِيُنْقِرَ عَنْ قَاتِلِ الْمُؤْمِنِ, i. e., God will not leave the slayer of the believer until He destroy him (S, TA.) 5 تَنَقَّرَ see 1, last signification 8 إِنْتَقَرَ see 1, latter part, in four places.

نَقْرٌ (tropical:) A slight sound that is heard in consequence of striking the thumb against the middle finger [and then letting them fly apart in opposite directions, passing each other]: (S, K:) [or the snapping with the fingers or with the thumb and middle finger, or with the thumb and first finger; as also ↓ نَقيرٌ: n. an. of the former with ة.] One says, مَا أَثَابَهُ نَقْرَةٌ (tropical:) [He did not reward him with even a snap of the fingers;] meaning, with anything: (S, K [in the former of which it is implied that نقرة thus used is from نَقْرٌ in the first of the senses explained above;]) not used thus save in [a negative phrase. (S.) A poet says, وَهُنّ حَرَى أَلَّا يُثِبْنَكَ نقْرَةٌ وَأَنْتَ حَرُى بِالنَّار حِينَ تُثِيبُ (tropical:) [And they are fit, or worthy, not to reward thee with anything, and thou art fit for, or worthy of, the fire of hell when thou rewardest]. (S.) Or the right reading in both these instances is ↓ نُقْرَةً, with damm. (TA.) [See نُقْرَةٌ.] One says also, لَمْ يَكْتَرِتْ لِى بِقَدُر نَقْرَة إِصْبَعٍ (tropical:) [He did not care for me so much as a snap of a finger]. (A.) [See also an (??) in a verse cited in the first paragraph of art. شأو.] I'Ab, in explanation of the words of the Kur, [iv. 123,] وَلَا يُظْلَمُونَ نَقِيرًا, put the end of the thumb against the inner side of his first finger, then made a snapping with it (ثُمَّ نَقَرَهَا), and said, This is what is termed ↓ نَقِيرٌ; [denoting the lit. meaning to be (tropical:) And they shall not be wronged a snap of the fingers.] (TA.) But see نُقْرَةٌ, below. b2: Also, A sound, or slight sound, by which a horse is put in motion: (TS, K:) as also ↓ نَقِيرٌ: (TA:) or the former has one or other of the different significations assigned to it above, in the explanations under the head of نَقَرَ بِالدَّابَّةِ.
