[And hence, app.,] بِكَذَا نَفْسُكَ ↓ قَصَّرَتْ [Thy mind, or wish, fell short of what was requisite with respect to such a thing], said to him who has sought, or desired, little, and a mean share or lot.

A3: قَدْ قَصَرَ العَشِىُّ, aor. ـُ inf. n. قُصُورٌ, [The afternoon, or evening, has come,] is said when you enter upon the مَسَآء [i. e. afternoon, or evening]: (S:) or it means has almost drawn near to night. (TA.) [See also قَصْرٌ, below.] b2: Hence, (S,) قَصَرْنَا and ↓ أَقْصَرْنَا We entered upon the عَشِىّ [i. e. afternoon, or evening]; (M, K;) the former signifies أَمْسَيْنَا; and the latter, دَخَلْنَا فِى قَصْرِ العَشِىِّ, like as you say أَمْسَيْنَا from المَسَآءُ: (S:) or the former, we came to be in the last part of the day; and the latter, we entered upon the last part of the day.

(M, K.) A5: قَصَرَهُ, (S, M, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, M,) inf. n. قَصْرٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) He confined, restricted, limited, kept within certain bounds or limits, restrained, withheld, hindered or prevented, him, or it; syn. حَبَسَهُ. (S, M, Msb, K. *) It is said in a trad. of Mo'ádh, لَهُ مَا قَصَرَ فِى بَيْتِهِ To him belongeth what he hath held confined in, or kept within, his house or tent: (TA:) or what he hath held in possession &c. (Az, TA in art. خمر: see 10 in that art.) Yousay also قَصَرْتُ الدَّارَ, inf. n. as above, I [confined and so] defended the house by walls. (TA.) and قَصَرَ الجَارِيَةَ بِالْحِجَابِ He [confined and so] kept safe the girl by means of the veil, or covering, or the like: and in like manner you say of a horse. (TA.)

(TA.) and one says قَصَرْتُ نَفْسِى عَلَى الشَّىْءِ I confined, or restricted, myself to the thing, and obliged myself to do it. (TA.) [See also 8.] Hence what is said of Thumámeh, in a trad., فأَبَى أَنْ يُسْلِمَ قَصْرًا But he refused to become a Muslim by constraint and compulsion: or by force, as some say, from القَسُرُ; the س being changed into ص, as is done in many other cases. (TA.) You say also قَصَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ عَلَى كَذَا I restricted the thing to such a thing. (S, TA.) And قَصَرَهُ عَلَى الأَمْرِ, meaning, رَدَّهُ إِلَيْهِ, (M, K,) i. e., [He reduced him, to the thing, or affair; or] he appropriated him [or it, restrictively,] to the thing, or affair. (TK.) [Hence,] قَصَرْتُ اللِّقْحَةَ عَلَى فَرَسِى I appropriated the milk of the milch-camel [restrictively] to my horse. (S, TA.) [And hence,] قَصَرْتُ عَلَى نَفْسِى نَاقَةً I retained for myself [restrictively] a she-camel, that I might drink her milk. (Msb.) Aboo-Du-ád says, describing a horse, فَقُصِرْنَ الشِّتَآءَ بَعْدُ عَلَيْهِ وَهُوَ لِلذَّوْدِ أَنْ يُقَسَّمْنَ جَارٌ meaning, So they were restricted to him, that he might drink their milk, during the severity of the winter, afterwards; and he is a protector to the few she-camels from their being suddenly attacked and divided in shares; مِنْ being understood before أَنْ.

A2: أَقْصَرَتْ She brought forth short children: hence the saying, إِنَّ الطَّوِيلَةَ قَدْ تُقْصِرُ وَإِنَّ القَصِيرَةَ قَدْ تُطِيلُ [Verily the tall woman sometimes brings forth short children, and verily the short woman sometimes brings forth tall children]. (S, K. *) J is in error in saying that this is in a trad. (Sgh, K.) But IAth also asserts it to be a trad. (MF in art. طول.) 6 تقاصر He feigned, or pretended, (أَظْهَرَ,) shortness; (M, Sgh, K;) as also ↓ تَقَوْصَرَ: (Sgh, K:) or, accord. to some, these two verbs have different significations: see the latter below.

Q. 1 in art. فذ.)] b3: تقاصرت نَفْسُهُ (assumed tropical:) He (lit. his spirit, or soul,) became abject, mean, contemptible, or despicable; syn. تَضَآءَلَتْ.

(S.) b2: He reckoned him, or held him, to fall short of doing what he ought to do: or to flagg, or be remiss: عَدَّهُ مُقَصِّرًا. (S.) Q. Q. 2 تَقَوْصَرَ, said of a man, (M,) He became contracted; lit., one part of him entered into another part; (M, K;) as though he became like a قَوْصَرَّة, from which word the verb is derived. (Z, TA.) b2: See also 6.

أَنَّكَ أَحْبَبْتَ القَصْرَ, and القَصَرَ, and القُصْرَةَ, i. e. أَنْ تُقَصِّرَ [Nothing prevented thy reaching the place to which I commanded thee to go but thy loving to fall short &c.; or to flag, or be remiss]. (M, K *.) And ↓ قَصَرَةٌ, (K,) or ↓ قَصَرٌ, without ة, accord. to the Nawádir of IAar, as cited in the L, and so in the handwriting of Sgh, (TA,) and ↓ قَصَارٌ, (K,) signify Laziness; slothfulness. (IAar, Sgh, K.) An Arab of the desert is related to have said ↓ أَرَدْتُ أَنْ آتِيَكَ فَمَنَعَنِى القَصَارُ [I desired to come to thee, but laziness prevented me]. (TA.) A2: قَصْرُكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا and ↓ قَصَارُكَ, (S, M, K,) and ↓ قُصَارُكَ, (M, K,) and ↓ قُصَارَاكَ, (S, M, K,) and ↓ قُصَيْرَاكَ, (M, K,) Thine utmost, or the utmost of thy power or of thine ability or of thy deed, (جُهْدُكَ, M, K, [or app., جَهْدُكَ, (see art. جهد,)] and غَايَتُكَ, S, M, K,) and the end of thy case, and that to which thou hast confined or restricted or limited thyself, (S, TA,) [or that to which thou art confined or restricted or limited,] is, or will be, thy doing such a thing. (S, M, K.) It is from قَصْرٌ signifying the “ act of confining, restricting, limiting,” &c. (TA.) And ↓ قُصْرَى also signifies the end of an affair. (Sgh, TA.) A poet says إِنَّمَا أَنْفُسُنَا عَارِيَّةٌ وَالْعَوَارِىُّ قَصَارٌ أَنْ تُرَدْ [Our souls are only a loan: and the end of loans is their being given back; تُرَدْ being for تُرَدَّ]. (S, TA.) You also say, كُلِّ بَلَآءٍ وَشِدَّةٍ ↓ المَوْتُ قُصَارِى

[Death is the end of every trial and distress]. (TA, art. حمأ.)

(TA.) Sb says, that قَصْرٌ has no dim.; the Arabs being content to use in its stead the dim. of مَسَآءٌ. (M.) You say أَتَيْتُهُ قَصْرًا I came to him in the afternoon, or evening; syn. عَشِيًّا. (S.) And جِئْتُ قَصْرًا, and ↓ مَقْصَرًا, I came at the approach of the عَشِىّ, a little before the عَصْر. (A, TA.)

I'Ab reads كَالْقَصَرِ, in the Kur, lxxvii. 32, (S, M, * TA,) and explains it as meaning Like the thick bases of necks, (M, * TA,) or as meaning كَقَصَرِ النَّخْلِ, i. e. الأَعْنَاق. (S.) [See the next signification.] You say ذَلَّتْ قَصَرَتُهُ [His neck or] the base of his neck became in a state of subjection. (TA.) And إِنَّهُ لَنَامُّ القَصَرَةِ Verily he has a large, or thick, neck. (Aboo-Mo'ádh the Grammarian.) b2: And hence, (Aboo-Mo'ádh,) (tropical:) The trunks, or lower-parts, (أُصُول, M, K, or أَعْنَاق, I'Ab, S,) of palm-trees: (S, M, K:) so explained in the Kur, ubi supra, (S, M,) by I'Ab: (S:) sing.

: see its syn. سَاهَمَهُ.4 أَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ He ordered, or commanded, them to cast, or draw, lots, or to practise sortilege, [among themselves,] for the thing (عَلَى الشَّىْءِ): (JM:) [see an ex. in the Mgh, in this art.:] or he prepared, or disposed, them, for doing so, for the thing (على الشىء): (Msb:) or he cast, or drew, lots, or practised sortilege, among them. (K.) The first explanation is generally preferable. See أَسْهَمَ بَيْنَهُمْ.6 هُمَا يَتَقاَرَظَانِ الخَيْرَ وَالشَّرَّ

: see تَقَارَضَا.

حُبُّ القَرْعِ Worms in the belly. (TA, voce شهدانج.) But see دُودُ القَرْحِ. القَرْع is not a mistake for القَرْح: حَبُّ القَرْحِ is a corruption, found in medical books: حب القرع is a name of the tape-worm, because each joint of it resembles a grain, or seed, of the gourd. (IbrD.) قَرَعٌ Bare pieces of ground amid herbage. (TA in art. خفى, from a trad.) قُوْعَةٌ [A lot used in sortilege: lots collectively: sortilege itself. Used in all these senses in the present day, and app. in the classical times.]

ضَرَبَ القُرْعَةَ He shuffled, or cast, or drew, lots; performed a sortilege.

(TA.)

شرب

1 شَرِبَ, (S, A, K, &c.,) aor. ـَ (A, K,) inf. n. شُرْبٌ and شَرْبٌ (S, A, Msb, K, &c.) and شِرْبٌ, (S, A, K,) agreeably with three different readings of the Kur lvi. 55, (S, TA,) the first of which (with damm) is that generally obtaining, (Fr, TA,) and is the only one admitted by Jaafar Ibn-Mohammad, notwithstanding which the second form (with fet-h) is said by MF to be the most chaste as well as the most agreeable with analogy, (TA,) or the second (with fet-h) is an inf. n., and the first is a simple subst., (AO, S, Msb, K,) and so is the third, (AO, S, K,) and مَشْرَبٌ, (S, K,) which is also a n. of place [and of time], (S,) and تَشْرَابٌ, (S K, TA,) a form used when muchness of the act is meant, (TA,) and تِشْرَابٌ, which is anomalous, (TA voce بَيَّنَ, q. v.,) He drank, (KL, PS, TK,) or he swallowed, syn. جَرِعَ, (A, K, [but the former meaning is evidently intended by this explanation, and such I shall assume to be the case in giving the explanations of the derivatives in the A and K. &c.,]) water, &c., (S,) or a liquid, properly by sucking in, or sipping; and otherwise tropically; (Msb;) [generally, gulping it; for] you say, شَرِبَ المَآءَ فِى كَرَّةٍ [He drank the water at once, or at a single draught]; and فِى ↓ تشرّبهُ مُهْلَةٍ [He drank it leisurely, or gently, or slowly]: (Mgh:) شُرْبٌ signifies the conveying to one's inside, by means of his mouth, that in the case of which chewing is not practicable: (KT:) [but] Es-Sarakustee says, one does not say of a bird شَرِبَ المَآءَ, but حَسَاهُ. (Msb.) In the saying of Aboo-Dhu-eyb, describing clouds, شَرِبْنَ بِمَآءِ البَحْرِ ثُمَّ تَرَفَّعَتْ [which is evidently best rendered They drank of the water of the sea, then rose aloft, agreeably with what has been stated respecting بِ in the sense of مِنْ in p. 143, it is said that] the ب is redundant, or, as رَوِينَ is rendered trans. by means of بِ, [though I do not think that this is the case unless بِ be used as meaning “ by means of,” and I do not remember to have met with an instance of it,] شَرِبْنَ is thus rendered trans. (TA.) [See a similar ex. in the 28th verse of the Mo'allakah of 'Antarah, EM p. 232. One says also, شَرِبَ فِى إِنَآءٍ, meaning He drank out of a vessel; agreeably with an explanation of مِشْرَبَةٌ, in the S and K, as meaning إِنَآءٌ يُشْرَبُ فِيهِ.] and one says, إِنِّى لَأَمْكُثُ اليَوْمَيْنِ مَا أَشْرَبُهُمَا مَآءً, meaning مَا أَشْرَبُ فِيهِمَا مَآءً [i. e. Verily I tarry the two days not drinking in them water]. (O.) b2: [شَرِبَ الدَّوَآءَ, in the conventional language of the physicians, as is indicated in the Mgh, voce بَنْجٌ (q. v.), on the phrase شَرِبَ البَنْجَ, and as is shown in many instances in the K &c., means He took, i. e. swallowed, the medicine, whether fluid or solid. b3: And in the present day, they say, شَرِبَ الدُّخَانَ, meaning He inhaled, properly imbibed, smoke of tobacco; or he smoked tobacco, or the tobacco.] b4: One says of seed-produce, or corn, when its culms have come forth, قَدْ شَرِبَ الزَّرْعُ فِى القَصَبِ (assumed tropical:) [The seed-produce, or corn, has imbibed into the culms]: (O, TA:) and when the sap (المَآء) has come into it, شَرِبَ قَصَبُ الزَّرْعِ (assumed tropical:) [The culms of the seed-produce, or corn, have imbibed]. (TA.) And one says, شَرِبَ السُّنْبُلُ الدَّقِيقَ (tropical:) [The ears of corn imbibed the farina; or] became pervaded by the farina; (En-Nadr, A, O;) or had in them the alimentary substance; as though the farina were water which they drank. (TA.) And وَقَدْ شَرِبَ الزَّرْعُ الدَّقِيقَ, occurring in the story of Ohod, (O, TA,) as some relate it, or ↓ شُرِّبَ as others relate it, means (tropical:) [And the seed-produce, or corn, had imbibed, or had been made to imbibe, the farina, or] had become hardened in its grain, and near to maturity. (TA.) [And ↓ أُشْرِبَ means the same: for one says,] أُشْرِبَ الزَّرْعُ (tropical:) [The seed-produce, or corn, was made to imbibe the farina; or] became pervaded by the farina: and in like manner, أُشْرِبَ الزَّرْعُ الدَّقِيقَ, i. e. (tropical:) [The seed-produce, or corn, was made to imbibe the farina, or] its alimentary substance. (TA.) b5: One also says, أَكَلَ غَنَمِى وَشَرِبَهَا (tropical:) [He ate the flesh of my sheep, or goats, and drank the milk of them]. (TA in art. اكل.) And [in like manner] أَكَلَ فُلَانٌ مَالِى

وَشَرِبَهُ (tropical:) [Such a one fed upon, devoured, or consumed, my property]. (A.) And أَكَلَ عَلَيْهِ الدَّهْرُ وَشَرِبَ (tropical:) [Time wasted him, or wore him away; as though it fed upon him]. (A.) b6: And مَا لَمْ ↓ أَشْرَبْتَنِى

أَشْرَبْ [lit. Thou hast made me to drink what I have not drunk,] meaning (tropical:) thou hast charged against me, or accused me of doing, what I have not done; (S, A, K;) like أَكَّلْتَنِى مَا لَمْ آكُلْ. (S in art. اكل.) b7: شَرِبَ also signifies He was, or became, satisfied with drinking: (TA:) and in like manner شَرِبَت is said of camels. (A 'Obeyd, S, TA.) And He was, or became, thirsty; (K, TA;) thus having two contr. significations; (TA;) as also ↓ أَشْرَبَ. (K, TA.) b8: Also, and ↓ أَشْرَبَ, His camels were, or became, satisfied with drinking: and, i. e. both these verbs, his camels were, or became, thirsty: (K, TA:) or the former verb signifies, or signifies also, (accord. to different copies of the K,) his camel was, or became, weak. (K, TA.) A2: شَرِبَ بِهِ, and بِهِ ↓ أَشْرَبَ, He lied against him. (K.) A3: شَرَبَ, aor. ـُ (O, K, TA,) inf. n. شَرْبٌ, (O, TA,) He understood: (O, K, TA:) on the authority of AA. (TA.) [In a copy of the A, the verb in this sense is written شَرِبَ; and app. not through the fault of the transcriber, for it is there mentioned as tropical: but in the O, it is said to be like كَتَبَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. كَتْبٌ; and in the K, to be like نَصَرَ.] One says, شَرَبَ مَا أُلْقِىَ إِلَيْهِ, i. e. He understood [what was told to him]. (TA.) And one says to a stupid person, اُحْلُبْ ثُمَّ اشْرُبْ Kneel thou; then understand. (O, TA. See also 1 in art. حلب.) 2 شَرَّبَ [شرّبهُ, inf. n. تَشْرِيبٌ, He made him to drink water &c.; and so, as is indicated in the S and K &c., and as is well known, ↓ أَشْرَبَهُ: and] شَرَّبْتُ المَآءَ I gave to drink the water; as also ↓ أَشْرَبْتُهُ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] one says, ظَلَّ مَالِى يُؤَكَّلُ وَيُشَرَّبُ [lit. My cattle passed the day made to eat and made to drink,] i. e. (assumed tropical:) pasturing as they pleased. (S, TA.) And شَرَّبَ مَالِى وَأَكَّلَهُ [lit. He made people to drink my property, and made them to eat it; or to drink the milk of my cattle, and to eat the flesh thereof;] i. e. (assumed tropical:) he fed people, (S,) or gave people to drink and to eat, (TA,) [of] my property, or cattle. (S, TA.) b3: and شرّب الأَرْضَ وَالنَّخْلَ (assumed tropical:) He gave drink to the land and the palm-trees. (TA.) b4: And شرّب لُقْمَةً

بِالدَّسَمِ (assumed tropical:) [He imbued, or soaked, a morsel, or mouthful, with grease, or gravy]. (TA in art. روغ.) b5: And شَرَّبْتُ القِرْبَةَ, (A 'Obeyd, S,) inf. n. تَشْرِيبٌ, (A 'Obeyd, K,) (assumed tropical:) I rendered the water-skin sweet; (K;) I put into the water-skin, it being new, clay and water, in order to render its savour sweet. (A 'Obeyd, S.) b6: And شُرِّبَ الزَّرْعُ الدَّقِيقَ: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph.3 شاربهُ, (S, A, K, TA,) inf. n. مُشَارَبَةٌ and شِرَابٌ, He drank with him; namely, a man. (TA.) b2: [And He watered his camels, &c. with his, i. e. with another's : or he drew water with him for the watering of camels &c.:] see an ex. of the latter inf. n. in a verse cited voce شَرِيبٌ.4 أَشْرَبَ see 2, in two places. One says, أَشْرَبْتُ الإِبِلَ حَتَّى شَرِبَتْ [I made the camels to drink until they were satisfied with drinking; or I watered the camels, or gave them to drink, &c.]; (S, TA;) [for] أَشْرَبَ is syn. with سَقَى. (K.) b2: [Hence,] الثَّوْبُ يُشْرَبُ الصٍّبْغَ: see 5. And أُشْرِبَ الثَّوْبُ حُمْرَةً (tropical:) The garment, or piece of cloth, was imbued, or saturated, with redness. (A.) and أَشْرَبَ اللَّوْنَ (tropical:) He saturated the colour [with dye]. (K, TA.) And أُشْرِبَ لَوْنًا (assumed tropical:) It was intermixed with a colour; as also ↓ اِشْرَابَّ. (TA.) and أُشْرِبَ الأَبْيَضُ حُمْرَةً (assumed tropical:) The white was suffused, or tinged over, with redness. (S, TA.) b3: [Hence, أُشْرِبَ is also said of a sound, as meaning (assumed tropical:) It was mixed with another sound; as appears from the words here following:] حِسُّ الصَّوْتِ فِى الفَمِ مِمَّا لَا إِشْرَابَ لَهُ مِنْ صَوْتِ الصَّدْرِ (assumed tropical:) [The faint, or gentle, sound of the voice in the mouth, of such kind as has no mixture of the voice of the chest]. (K in art. همس.) b4: [Hence also,] أُشْرِبَ الزَّرْعُ: see 1, latter half. b5: And أُشْرِبَ فِى قَلْبِهِ حُبَّهُ, (S,) or أُشْرِبَ حُبَّ فُلَانٍ, (K,) or حُبَّ فُلَانَةَ, (A,) (tropical:) [He was made to imbibe into his heart the love of him, or of such a man, or of such a female;] meaning that the love of him, or of her, pervaded, or commingled with, his heart, (S, A, K, TA,) like beverage. (TA.) Whence, in the Kur [ii. 87], وَأُشْرِبُوا فِى قُلُوبِهِمُ الْعِجْلَ, for حُبَّ العِجْلِ, (S, TA,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) And they were made to imbibe [into their hearts] the love of the calf.. (Zj, TA.) b6: And رَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَأَشْرَبَهَا الهَوَآءَ ثُمَّ قَالَ بِهَا عَلَى قَذَالِهِ (tropical:) [He raised his hand, and made the air to swallow it up, (i. e. raised it so high and so quickly that it became hardly seen,) then gave a blow with it upon the back of his head]. (A, TA.) b7: And أَشْرَبْتَنِى مَا لَمْ أَشْرَبْ: see 1, latter half. b8: And one says to his she-camel, لَأُشْرِبَنَّكِ الحِبَالَ (tropical:) [I will assuredly put upon thee the ropes, or cords], and العِقَالَ [the cord, or rope, with which the fore shank and the arm are bound together]. (A.) [Or] اشربهُ means (tropical:) He put the rope, or cord, upon his neck; namely, a man's, (K, TA,) and a camel's, and a horse's or the like: (TA:) and اشرب الخَيْلَ he put the ropes, or cords, upon the necks of the horses. (K,) and اشرب إِبِلَهُ (tropical:) He tied his camels, every one to another. (K, TA.) A2: اشرب as an intrans. verb: see 1, last quarter, in two places. b2: Also He (a man, TA) attained to the time for the drinking of his camels. (K, * TA.) A3: اشرب بِهِ: see 1, near the end of the paragraph.5 تَشَرَّبَ see 1, first sentence. b2: Hence one says, (Mgh,) تشرّب الثَّوْبُ العَرَقَ, (S, Mgh, * K,) and الصِّبْغَ, (A, Mgh, L,) (tropical:) The garment, or piece of cloth, imbibed, or absorbed, (S, A, Mgh, * L, K,) the sweat, (S, Mgh, K,) and the dye; (A, Mgh, L;) as though it drank it by little and little: (Mgh:) and [in like manner] one says, الثَّوْبُ يشرب الصِّبْغَ [app. ↓ يُشْرَبُ, (like as one says يُشْرَبُ حُمْرَةً, as shown in the next preceding paragraph,) meaning (assumed tropical:) The garment, or piece of cloth, is made to imbibe, or absorb, the dye]. (TA.) [It is said that] the verb is not used intransitively in the [proper] language of the Arabs. (Mgh.) [But] one says, تشرّب الصِّبْغُ فِى الثَّوْبِ, meaning (tropical:) The dye pervaded the garment, or piece of cloth: (K, * TA:) and الصِّبْغُ يَتَشَرَّبُ الثَّوْبَ (tropical:) [The dye pervades the garment, or piece of cloth]. (TA.) [See also the explanation of a verse cited voce تَسَقَّى.]10 استشرب لَوْنُهُ (assumed tropical:) His, or its, colour became intense. (K.) And استشربت القَوْسُ حُمْرَةً (assumed tropical:) The bow became intensely red: such is the case when it is made of the [tree called] شَرْيَان. (AHn, (TA.) 11 اِشْرَابَّ: see 4, near the beginning. Q. Q. 4 اِشْرَأَبّ, (S, A, O, K,) inf. n. اِشْرِئْبَابٌ, (S, O,) (tropical:) He raised his head like the camel that has satisfied his thirst on the occasion of drinking: (A:) or he stretched forth his neck to look: (S, A, O, K:) not improbably, from الشُّرْبُ in its well known sense, as though he did so when preparing to drink: (O:) or, as is said in the L, from مَشْرَبَةٌ as syn. with غُرْفَةٌ: (TA:) you say, اِشْرَأَبَّ لَهُ, (S, A,) or إِلَيْهِ, (K,) or both; (TA;) [the former of which may be rendered He raised his head at it, or he stretched forth his neck at it to look; or, as also the latter, he stretched forth his neck to look at it;] namely, a thing: (S:) or اشرأبّ originally means he stretched forth his neck in preparing to drink water: and then, in consequence of frequency of usage, he raised his head, and stretched forth his neck, in looking; and hence is trans. by means of إِلَى: (Har p.

152:) or he raised, or exalted, himself. (K, * TA.) يَشْرَئِبُّونَ لِصَوْتِهِ, occurring in a trad., means (tropical:) They will raise their heads at his voice to look at him. (TA.) And اِشْرَأَبَّ النِّفَاقُ وَارْتَدَّتِ العَرَبُ, in another trad., means (tropical:) Hypocrisy exalted itself [and the Arabs apostatized, or revolted from their religion]. (TA.) شَرْبٌ an inf. n. of شَرِبَ [q. v.]. (S, A, Msb, K, &c.) A2: And a pl., (S, Msb,) or [rather] a quasipl. n., (ISd, TA,) of شَارِبٌ, q. v. (S, ISd, Msb, TA.) A3: [Golius assigns to it also the meaning of “ Linum tenue,” as on the authority of Meyd.]

شُرْبٌ an inf. n. of شَرِبَ [q. v.]; (S, A, Msb, K, &c.;) like ↓ شِرْبٌ: (S, A, K:) or a simple subst. [signifying The act of drinking]; (AO, S Msb, K;) as also ↓ شِرْبٌ. (AO, S, K.) A2: In the phrase أَخُوكَ شُرْبٌ it is used as [an epithet,] meaning ذُو شُرْبٍ [which may be regarded as virtually syn. with شَارِبٌ or as similar to this latter but intensive in signification]. (Ham p. 194.) شِرْبٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places. b2: Also Water, (K, TA,) itself; so some say; (TA;) as also ↓ مِشْرَبٌ, (K, accord. to the TA,) with kesr, (TA,) or ↓ مَشْرَبٌ, (so in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K,) i. e. water that one drinks; so says Az: pl. of the former أَشْرَابٌ. (TA.) [See also شَرَابٌ.] b3: [And A draught of milk: see an ex. in a verse cited in art. سلف, conj. 4.] b4: And A share, or portion that falls to one's lot, of water: (S, Mgh, Msb, K:) or so شِرْبٌ مِنْ مَآءٍ. (ISk, TA.) It is said in a prov., آخِرُهَا أَقَلُّهَا شِرْبًا [The last of them is the one of them that has the least share of water]: originating from the watering of camels; because the last of them sometimes comes to the water when the watering-trough has been exhausted. (S. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 61.]) b5: As a law-term, it means The use of water [or the right to use it] for the watering of sown-fields and of beasts. (Mgh.) b6: Also A wateringplace; syn. مَوْرِدٌ: (Az, K:) pl. as above. (TA.) b7: And (assumed tropical:) A time of drinking: (K:) but they say that it denotes the time only by a sort of tropical application; and they differ respecting the connexion of this meaning with the proper meaning. (MF, TA.) شَرَبٌ: see شَرَبَةٌ, in two places.

شَرْبَةٌ A single act of drinking. (S.) b2: and A single draught, or the quantity that is drunk at once, of water. (S.) It is said in a prov., نِعْمَ مِعْلَقُ الشَّرْبَةِ هٰذَا [Excellent, or most excellent, is the traveller's drinking-cup, or bowl, that will hold a single draught, namely, this!]: the مِعْلَق is said by As to be a drinking-cup or bowl which the rider upon a camel suspends [to his saddle]: (Meyd:) it is said in describing a camel: (TA:) and it means that, to the place of alighting to which he desires to go, he is content with a single draught, not wanting another: (Meyd, TA:) the prov. is applied to him who, in his affairs, is content with his own opinion, not wanting that of another person. (Meyd.) شَرْبَةُ أَبِى الجَهْمِ [The draught of Abu-l-Jahm] is said of a thing that is sweet, or pleasant, but in its result unwholesome: (MF, TA:) Abu-l-Jahm was a frequent visiter of the Khaleefeh El-Mansoor El-'Abbásee, who, finding him troublesome, ordered that a poisoned draught should be given to him, in his presence: which having been done, Abu-l-Jahm, pained by the draught, rose to depart; and being asked by the Khaleefeh whither he was going, he answered, Whither thou hast sent me, O Prince of the Faithful. (MF.) b3: In the Mo'allakah of Tarafeh, it is applied to A draught of wine. (EM p. 87.) b4: [In the conventional language of the physicians, it is a term applied to A dose of medicine, such as is drunk and also such as is eaten.]

A2: Also A palm-tree that grows from the date stone: (K:) pl. شَرَبَاتٌ. (TA. [It seems to be there added that شَرَائِبُ and شَرَابِيبُ are also its pls.: the former may be like ضَرَائِرُ pl. of ضَرَّةٌ: the latter is app. a mistranscription, and should perhaps be شَرَائِيبُ, for شَرَائِبُ; like مَحَامِيرُ for مَحَامِرُ, &c.]) شُرْبَةٌ, (K,) or شُرْبَةٌ مِنْ مَآءٍ, (S,) The quantity of water that satisfies thirst. (S, K.) b2: شُرْبَةٌ is also syn. with ↓ إِشْرَابٌ [originally an inf. n.] meaning (assumed tropical:) A colour tinged over with another colour; as in the saying, فِيهِ شُرْبَةٌ مِنْ حُمْرَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [In him is a colour tinged with redness]: (S, TA:) [and] (tropical:) somewhat of redness; as in the phrase, فِيهِ شُرْبَةٌ (tropical:) [In him is somewhat of redness]: (A:) or (assumed tropical:) a redness in the face: (K:) or (assumed tropical:) whiteness mixed with redness. (IAar, TA voce حُسْبَةٌ.) شَرَبَةٌ [The act, or habit, of] much drinking. (K.) One says, إِنَّهُ لَذًو شَرَبَةٍ, meaning Verily he is one who drinks much. (AA, AHn, TA.) A2: It is also allowable as a pl. of شَارِبٌ [q. v.]. (Msb.) A3: Also A small trough, (S, K, TA,) made, (S,) or dug, (TA,) around a palm-tree, (S, K, TA,) and around any other kind of tree, and filled with water, (TA,) holding enough to irrigate it fully, (K, TA,) so that it is plentifully irrigated thereby: (S, TA:) pl. ↓ شَرَبٌ [or rather this is a coll. gen. n., of which the former is the n. un.,] and [the pl. properly so termed is]

شَرَبَاتٌ. (S.) b2: And i. q. كُرْدُ دَبْرَةٍ, (K, TA,) which is syn. with مَسْقَاةٌ: (TA:) [from a comparison of the explanations of all of these words, it seems to mean A channel of water for the irrigation of a plot, or tract, of sown land: or, if the explanation مسقاة, in the TA, be conjectural, the meaning may be a portion of such land, having a raised border to retain the water admitted upon it:] pl. شَرَبَاتٌ and [coll. gen. n.] ↓ شَرَبٌ [as above]. (TA.) A4: Also Thirst. (Lh, T, O, K.) One says, لَمْ تَزَلْ بِهِ شَرَبَةٌ اليَوْمَ He has not ceased to have thirst to-day. (Lh, TA.) And جَآءَتِ الإِبِلُ وَبِهَا شَرَبَةٌ The camels came thirsty. (T, O.) And طَعَامٌ ذُو شَرَبَةٍ Food wherewith one has not sufficient water to satisfy thirst. (O, TA.) Accord. to the L, شَرَبَةٌ signifies The thirst of cattle after the being satisfied with fresh pasture; because this invites to drink. (TA.) b2: And Vehemence of heat. (K.) One says, يَوْمٌ ذُو شَرَبَةٍ A day of vehement heat, in which is drunk more water than at other times. (TA.) شُرَبَةٌ One who drinks much; (ISk, S, K;) as also ↓ شَرُوبٌ and ↓ شَرَّابٌ. (S.) One says رَجُلٌ

أُكَلَةٌ شُرَبَةٌ A man who eats and drinks much. (ISk, S.) شُرْبُبٌ, applied to herbage, i. q. غَمْلَى; (O, K;) i. e. Tangled and dense, one part above another. (O.) شَرَبَّةٌ, [said to be] the only word of this form except جَرَبَّةٌ, (K,) [but to this should be added بَغَتَّةٌ, inf. n. of بَغَتَهُ,] A way, mode, or manner, of being, or acting &c. (S, O, K.) One says, مَا زَالَ فُلَانٌ عَلَى شَرَبَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ Such a one ceased not to be [employed] upon one affair. (S, O.) A2: And A tract of land, (K, TA,) soft, or plain, (TA,) producing herbs, but having in it no trees. (K, TA.) b2: [And] The side of a valley. (Mgh.) شَرَابٌ A beverage, or drink, (Mgh, L, Msb, K,) of any of the liquids, (Mgh, Msb,) or of anything that is not chewed, (L,) or of whatever kind and in whatever state it be; thus in a copy of the K: (TA:) and syn. with شَرَابٌ are ↓ شَرِيبٌ and ↓ شَرُوبٌ, (K,) accord. to a saying attributed to Az: (TA:) or these two have another meaning, expl. in the next paragraph: (K:) the pl. of شَرَابٌ is أَشْرِبَةٌ; (Mgh, TA;) or it has no pl., as is said in the K in art. نهر [accord. to one or more of the copies; but see نَهَارٌ, where it is shown that in copies of the K, as well as in the S, the word to which this statement relates is سَرَابٌ, with the unpointed س]. (TA.) The lawyers [and generally the post-classical writers, and sometimes others,] mean thereby [Win, and] such beverage as is forbidden. (Mgh.) [Also Sirup: pl. شَرَابَاتٌ: so in the language of the present day.]

شَرُوبٌ and ↓ شَرِيبٌ are syn. with شَرَابٌ, q. v.: or both signify Water inferior to the عَذْب [or sweet]: (K:) or [brackish water; i. e.] water between the salt and the sweet: (AO, S:) or water drinkable, or fit to be drunk, but in which is disagreeableness: (Msb:) or the former signifies water that has some degree of sweetness, and is sometimes drunk by men notwithstanding what is in it; and ↓ the latter, water inferior to what is sweet, and not drunk by men save in cases of necessity, but sometimes drunk by cattle: (IKtt, TA:) or ↓ the latter, the sweet: and the former is said to signify water that is drunk: (TA:) or ↓ the latter, water that has no sweetness in it, but is sometimes drunk by men notwithstanding what is in it; and the former, water inferior to this in sweetness, and not drunk by men save in cases of necessity: (Az, T, M, TA:) or, accord. to Lth, ↓ شَرِيبٌ and ↓ شِرِّيبٌ signify water in which are bitterness and saltness, but not abstained from as drink: and مَآءٌ شَرُوبٌ and طَعِيمٌ are syn.: and ↓ مَآءٌ مِشْرَبٌ is syn. with شَرُوبٌ: this last word is used alike as masc. and fem. and sing. and pl. (TA.) It is said in a prov., originally in a trad., جُرْعَةُ شَرُوبٍ أَنْفَعُ مِنْ عَذْبٍ مُوبٍ [expl. in art. وبأ]. (TA.) A2: Also, شَرُوبٌ, A man who drinks vehemently. (TA.) See also شُرَبَةٌ: and شِرِّيبٌ. b2: And (assumed tropical:) A she-camel desiring the stallion. (K.) شَرِيبٌ: see شَرَابٌ: and شَرُوبٌ; the latter in five places.

A2: Also One who drinks with another: (S, K:) and one who waters his camels with those of another: of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مُفَاعِلٌ: (S:) and one who draws water, or is given to drink, with another. (IAar, K.) You say, هُوَ شَرِيِبِى [He is my companion in drinking; or in watering his camels with mine: &c.]. (TA.) And a rájiz says, رُبَّ شَرِيبٍ لَكَ ذِى حُسَاسِ كَالحَزِّ بِالمَوَاسِى ↓ شِرَابُهُ [Many a one who waters his camels with thine, or who draws water with thee for the watering of camels, having an evil disposition, his watering &c. is like the cutting with razors]: i. e., thy waiting for him at the watering-trough is [a cause of] killing to thee and to thy camels. (TA.) شَرِيبَةٌ is expl. in the S as meaning A sheep, or goat, which one drives back, or brings back, from the water, when the sheep, or goats, are satisfied with drinking, and which they follow: but in some of the copies in a marginal note stating that the correct word is سَرِيبَةٌ, with the unpointed س. (TA.) شَرَابِىٌّ A cup-bearer: or a butler: and a seller of wine or of sirup. (MA.) شُرَأْبِيبَةٌ a subst. (K) from اِشْرَأَبَّ [q. v.; as such signifying (tropical:) A raising of the head like the camel that has satisfied his thirst on the occasion of drinking: &c.]: (S, K, TA:) like طُمَأْنِينَةٌ [from اِطْمَأَنَّ]. (K, TA.) شَرَّابٌ: see شُرَبَةٌ: and what here next follows.

شِرِّيبٌ Addicted to شَرَاب [i. e. drink, or wine]; (S, K, TA;) like خِمِّيرٌ; (S;) as also ↓ شَرَّابٌ and ↓ شَرُوبٌ and ↓ شَارِبٌ. (TA.) A2: See also شَرُوبٌ.

شُرَّابَةٌ A tassel: so in the language of the present day: probably post-classical: pl. شَرَارِيبُ.]

شَارِبٌ Drinking, or a drinker: pl. شَارِبُونَ (Msb) and ↓ شَرْبٌ, like as صَحْبٌ is of صَاحِبٌ, (S, Msb,) or, accord. to ISd, (TA,) شَرْبٌ, which signifies people drinking, (K, TA,) and assembling for drinking, is a quasi.-pl. n. of شَارِبٌ, being like رَكْبٌ and رَجْلٌ; and شُرُوبٌ, which is said by IAar [and in the S] to be pl. of شَرْبٌ, is pl. of شَارِبٌ, like as شُهُودٌ is of شَاهِدٌ; (TA;) شَرَبَةٌ also is allowable as a pl. of شَارِبٌ, like as كَفَرَةٌ is pl. of كَافِرٌ; (Msb;) and أَشْرُبٌ is pl. of شَرْبٌ, or it may be an anomalous pl. of شَارِبٌ: (MF:) the pl. شُرُوب occurs in the saying of El-Aashà, هُوَ الوَاهِبُ المُسْمِعَاتِ الشُّرُو بَ بَيْنَ الحَرِيرِ وَبَيْنَ الكَتَنْ

[He is the giver of female singers to the drinkers, some clad in silk and some in linen]. (S.) b2: See also شِرِّيبٌ. b3: [Hence, The mustache; i. e.] the defluent hair over the mouth; (Msb;) or so شَوَارِبُ, (Lh, A, K,) which is the pl., (Lh, S, Msb,) as though the sing, applied to every distinct part: (Lh:) the two [halves] are called شَارِبَانِ: (S, TA:) or, as some say, only the sing. is used, and the dual is a mistake: (TA:) accord. to AHát (Msb, TA) and AAF, (TA,) the dual is is scarcely ever, or never, used; but accord. to AO, the Kilábees say شَارِبَانِ, with regard to the two extremities: (Msb, TA:) and the pl., (A, K,) or, accord. to the T &c., the dual, (TA,) signifies the long portions [of the hair] on the two sides of the سَبَلَة [q. v.]: (T, A, K, TA:) or (K, TA) شَارِبٌ signifies the سَبَلَة altogether, (A, K, TA,) as some say; but this is not correct. (TA.) One says, طَرَّ شَارِبُ الغُلَامِ [The mustache of the boy, or young man, grew forth]. (S.) b4: and hence, as being likened to the two long portions of hair on each side of the سَبَلَة, the شَارِبَانِ of the sword, (T, TA,) i. e. (tropical:) Two long projections (أَنْفَانِ طَوِيلَانِ) at the lower part of the hilt, (A, * K, TA,) [extending from the guard,] one on one side and the other on the other side of the blade, (T, * TA,) the غَاشِيَة [or leathern covering of the scabbard] being beneath them: so says ISh. (TA.) b5: الشَّوَارِبُ also signifies (tropical:) The عُرُوق [or ducts] of the حُلْقُوم [or windpipe]: (A:) or certain ducts (عُرُوق) in the حَلْق [i. e. fauces or throat], (K, TA,) that imbibe the water [or saliva?], being the channels thereof: (TA:) and, (K,) or, as some say, (TA,) the channels of the water [or saliva?] (S, K, TA) in the حَلْق [i. e. fauces or throat] (S) or in the neck: (K, TA:) or certain ducts (عُرُوق) adhering to the windpipe, and the lower parts thereof to the lungs: so says IDrd: or rather, some say, the hinder part thereof [adhering] to the وَتِين [or aor. a], having tubes from which the voice issues, and in which choking takes place, and whence the saliva issues: and those of the horse are said to be [certain ducts] by the side of the أَوْدَاج [or external jugular veins], where the veterinary surgeon draws blood by cutting the اوداج: the sing. seems by implication to be شَارِبٌ. (TA.) Hence the phrase حِمَارٌ صَخِبُ الشَّوَارِبِ (assumed tropical:) An ass that brays vehemently. (S, TA.) And صَخِبُ الشَّوَارِبِ (tropical:) [A man] having a disagreeable voice: thus likened to an ass. (A, TA.) b6: Accord. to IAar, الشَّوَارِبُ signifies [also] مَجَارِى المَآءِ فِى العَيْنِ, which AM supposes to mean The channels of water in the spring, or source; not in the eye. (L, TA.) b7: سُنْبُلٌ شَارِبُ قَمْحٍ means (tropical:) Ears of corn becoming, or being, pervaded by the farina: (A, TA:) or, in which the grain has hardened, and nearly come to maturity. (TA.) A2: Also (assumed tropical:) Weakness, or feebleness, in any animal: (K, * TA:) or a strain (عِرْق) thereof; as in the saying, نِعْمَ البَعِيرُ هٰذَا لَوْلَا

أَنَّ فِيهِ شَارِبَ خَوَرٍ (assumed tropical:) [Excellent, or most excellent, were the camel, this one, were there not in him a strain of weakness or feebleness]. (TA.) شَارِبَةٌ [a subst. from شَارِبٌ, made such by the affix ة,] A people, or party, dwelling upon the side (ضَفَّة, in some copies of the K صُفَّة,) of a river, (S, * A, K,) and to whom belongs the water thereof. (S.) إِشْرَابٌ as syn. with شُرْبَةٌ: see the latter.

مَشْرَبٌ is a noun of place, [and of time,] as well as an inf. n.: [i. e.] it signifies [A place, and a time, of drinking: or] the quarter (وَجْه) whence one drinks: (S, TA:) and a place to which one comes to drink at a river or rivulet: (TA:) and ↓ مَشْرَبَةٌ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) not, as is implied in the K, مَشْرُبَةٌ also, (TA,) signifies [the same, as is indicated in the A; or] a place whence people drink; (Msb, TA; *) i. q. مَشْرَعَةٌ; (K;) or like a مَشْرَعَة. (S, TA.) One says, هٰذَا مَشْرَبُ القَوْمِ and ↓ مَشْرَبَتُهُمْ [This is the people's, or party's, drinkingplace, or place whence they drink]. (A.) And it is said in a trad., ↓ مَلْعُونٌ مَنْ أَحَاطَ عَلَى مَشْرَبَةٍ, (S, TA,) i. e. [Cursed is he] who takes entirely to himself, debarring others from it, a place whence people drink. (TA.) b2: See also شِرْبٌ.

مُشْرَبٌ حُمْرَةً (tropical:) A man whose complexion is tinged over [or intermixed] with redness. (TA.) [See 4: and see also مُشَرَّبٌ.]

رَجُلٌ مُشْرِبٌ A man whose camels have drunk [until satisfied with drinking: see أَشْرَبَ near the end of the first paragraph]. (TA.) And A man whose camels are thirsty, or who is himself thirsty. (TA.) اِسْقِنِى فَإِنَّنِى مُشْرِبٌ is a saying mentioned by IAar, and expl. by him as meaning عَطْشَانُ: it means [Give thou me to drink, for] I am thirsty or my camels are thirsty. (TA.) مِشْرَبٌ: see شِرْبٌ: and see also شَرُوبٌ.

مَشْرَبَةٌ: see مَشْرَبٌ, in three places. b2: Hence, (A, TA,) An upper chamber; syn. غُرْفَةٌ; (S, A, Msb, K, TA;) and عُِلِّيَّةٌ; (S, * K;) both of which signify the same; (MF, TA;) because people drink therein; (A, TA;) as also ↓ مَشْرُبَةٌ: (S, Msb, K, TA:) pl. مَشَارِبُ, (TA,) syn. with عَلَالِىُّ, (S,) and مَشْرَبَاتٌ. (TA.) b3: And the former, (K, TA,) not, as is implied in the K, the latter also, (TA,) A صُفَّة [i. e. roofed vestibule or the like]: (K, TA:) or the like of a صُفَّة in the front of a غُرْفَة [expl. above].

A2: [Also A cause of drinking: a word of the class of مَبْخَلَةٌ

&c.] One says طَعَامٌ مَشْرَبَةٌ Food [that is a cause of drinking, or] upon which one drinks much water: (T, TA:) or طَعَامٌ ذُو مَشْرَبَةٍ food upon which the eater drinks. (A.) مَشْرُبَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

مِشْرَبَةٌ, (S, A, K,) and MF says that ↓ مَشْرَبَةٌ is allowable in the same sense, mentioning it as on the authority of Fei, [in my copy of whose lexicon, the Msb, I do not find it,] (TA,) A drinkingvessel. (S, A, K.) مُشَرَّبٌ حُمْرَةً (tropical:) A man whose complexion is much tinged over [or much intermixed] with redness. (TA.) [See also مُشْرَبٌ.] b2: مُشَرَّبَةٌ is an epithet applied to Certain letters the utterance of which, in pausing, is accompanied with a sort of blowing, but not with the same stress as the [generality of those that are termed] مَجْهُورَة: they are زَاى and ظَآء and ذَال and ضَاد: [and Lumsden (in his Ar. Gr. p. 47) states that رَآء belongs to the same class, likewise: and, as some say, نُون when movent:] Sb says that some of the Arabs utter with more vehemence of voice than others. (TA.)

[And Golius explains it as meaning He decked with a royal garment; on the authority of the KL; in my copy of which I find no other meaning assigned to it than the first mentioned above.] One says, شَرَّفَ اللّٰهُ الكَعْبَةَ, (O, K, TA,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) [God rendered, or may God render, the Kaabeh an object of honour, or glorious,] from الشَّرَفُ, (O, K, TA,) i. e. المَجْدُ.

His soul was vehemently eager for a thing. (Mgh. [See also 10.]) إِشْرَافٌ signifies The being eager, and the being vehemently eager: and hence the saying, in a trad., مَنْ أَخَذَ الدُّنْيَا بِإِشْرَافِ نَفْسٍ

لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهَا [Whoso takes the enjoyments of the present world with eagerness, or vehement eagerness, of soul, he will not be blessed therein].

Whoso finds a place of refuge [for escaping, or avoiding them, let them invite him, or cause him, to seek, or take, refuge, virtually meaning] let him seek, or take, refuge therein.

A poet says, تَطَالَلْتُ وَاسْتَشْرَفْتُهُ فَرَأَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ آأَنْتَ زَيْدُ الأَرَامِلِ [I stretched up myself, and raised my eyes towards him, expanding my hand over my eyebrow like him who is shading his eyes from the sun; and I said to him, Art thou Zeyd-el-Arámil?].

وَأَقُودُ لِلشَّرَفِ الرَّفِيعِ حِمَارِى

[I come to the assembly, and my sitting-place is not made near to the chief person or persons, and I lead to the high elevated place my ass]: he means, I have become unsound in my intellect in consequence of old age, so that no profit is gotten from my opinion, and I am not able to mount my ass from the ground, unless from a high place. (S.) b4: [Hence, (tropical:) The brink, verge, or point, of some event of great magnitude, or of any importance: not well expl. as meaning] the being on the brink, or verge, or at the point, of some event of great importance, good or evil: (O, K:) one says in the case of good, هُوَ عَلَى شَرَفٍ مِنْ قَضَآءِ حَاجَتِهِ (tropical:) [He is at the point of accomplishing the object of his want]: and in the case of evil, هُوَ عَلَى شَرَفٍ مِنَ الهَلَاكِ (tropical:) [He is on the brink, &c., of destruction].

One says, عَدَا شَرَفًا أَوْ شَرَفَيْنِ [He ran a heat, or two heats]: (O:) and [in like manner,] اِسْتَنَّتٌ شَرَفًا أَوْ شَرَفَيْنِ, (O, K,) occurring in a trad., said of a mare, or of horses. (O.)

شُرُفَاتٌ] is pl. of ↓ شُرُفَةٌ, with two dammehs: EshShiháb says that شُرْفَات is expl. as meaning the highest portions of a قَصْر; but what are thus termed are only what are built on the top of a wall, distinct from one another, [side by side, like merlons of a parapet,] according to a well-known form: (TA:) the شُرْفَة is what is called by the [common] people ↓ شُرَّافَة: (Ham p. 824:) the شُرَّافَة of a mosque is a word used by the lawyers, and is one of their mistakes, as IB has notified: so says MF: its pl. is شَرَارِيفُ. (TA.) b4: The شُرُفَات (thus with two dammehs, K) of a horse are The neck and قَطَاة [i. e. croup, or rump, or part between the hips or haunches,] thereof. (O, K.) شُرُفَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

شَرِيفٌ High, elevated, exalted, or eminent, (S, O, * Msb, K, TA,) [in rank, condition, or estimation,] in respect of religion or of worldly things: (TA:) [generally meaning high-born, or noble:] possessing glory, honour, dignity, or nobility: or such, and having also [such] ancestry: (TA:) [using it as not implying highness, or nobility, of ancestry,] you say, هُوَ شَرِيفٌ اليَوْمَ [He is high, or noble, to-day], and عَنْ قَلِيلٍ ↓ شَارِفٌ as meaning one who will be شَرِيف [after a little while]: (Fr, S, K:) the pl. [of pauc.] is أَشْرَافٌ and [of mult.]

شُرَفَآءُ (S, O, Msb, K) and ↓ شَرَفٌ, so in the K, app. denoting that this last is one of the pls. of شريف, and it is said in the O that شَرَفٌ is syn. with شُرَفَآءُ; but in the L it is said that it is syn. with شَرِيفٌ; and hence the saying هُوَ شَرَفُ قَوْمِهِ meaning He is the شَرِيف of his people, and كَرَمُهُمْ meaning the كَرِيم of them; and thus it has been expl. as used in a trad.: (TA:) [but both these assertions are probably correct; for it seems to be, agreeably with analogy, an inf. n. used as an epithet, and therefore applicable to a single person and to a pl. number, and also to two persons, and likewise to a female as well as to a male.] b2: [By the modern Arabs, and the Turks and Persians, it is also applied, as a title of honour, to Any descendant of the Prophet; like سَيِّد. And, with the article ال, particularly to the descendant of the Prophet who is The governor of Mekkeh; now always a vassal of the Turkish Sultán.]

شُرَافِىٌّ, applied to a [lizard of the kind called]

ضَبّ, and to a jerboa, Large in the ears, and in the body: (TA:) and so شُرَافِيَّةٌ applied to a she-camel; (O, K, TA;) as also ↓ شَرْفَآءُ. (TA.) and أُذُنٌ شُرَافِيَّةٌ i. q. شُفَارِيَّةٌ [q. v.], (K, TA,) or An ear that is high, long, and having hair upon it. (IDrd, O, TA.) See also أُذُنٌ شَرْفَآءُ, voce أَشْرَفُ. b2: Also A kind of white garments or cloths: (O, K: *) or a garment, or piece of cloth, that is purchased from a country of the foreigners adjacent to the land of the Arabs. (As, O, K. *) شُرَّافَةٌ; pl. شَرَارِيفُ: see شُرْفَةٌ.

شِرْيَافٌ (S, O, K) and شِرْنَافٌ (O and K in art. شرنف) [but see Q. Q. 1] The leaves of seedproduce that have become so long and abundant that one fears its becoming marred; wherefore they are cut off. (S, O, K.) شَارِفٌ: see شَرِيفٌ. b2: Applied to a she-camel, (assumed tropical:) High [app. meaning much advanced] in age: (A, TA:) or advanced in age; (S, O, K;) decrepit; (IAar, K;) as also شَارِفَةٌ: (K:) [see دَلُوقٌ, in three places:] pl. شُرْفٌ, like بُزْلٌ and عُوذٌ pls. of بَازِلٌ and عَائِذٌ, (S, O,) or شُرُفٌ, like كُتُبٌ, (K,) or the latter is allowable in poetry, (O,) or the former is a contraction of the latter, (IAth, TA,) and شَوَارِفُ [also pl. of شَارِفَةٌ] (O, K) and شُرَّفٌ and شُرُوفٌ: (K:) it is said that شَارِفٌ is not applied to the he-camel; but it is so applied, as well as to the she-camel, accord. to the Towsheeh of El-Jelál. (TA.) Hence, as being likened to black decrepit she-camels, (Aboo-Bekr, TA,) الشُّرُفُ الجُونُ, with two dammehs, [which I think a mistake, unless it mean with a dammeh to each word,] (K,) or الشَّرْفُ الجُونُ, (O, IAth, TA,) occurring in a trad., meaning (assumed tropical:) [Trials, or conflicts and factions,] like portions of the dark night: (O, * K, * TA:) thus expl. by the Prophet: (O, TA:) but some relate it otherwise, with ق, (K,) saying الشُّرْقُ الجون, pl. of شَارِقٌ, (O, * TA,) meaning “ [trials, &c.,] rising (O, K, TA) from the direction of the east. ” (O, TA.) b3: Also applied to an arrow, as meaning Old: (S, O, K:) and applied to a garment or a piece of cloth [app. in the same sense]: (A and TA voce طَرِيدٌ:) or an arrow long since laid by [expl. by بَعِيدُ العَهْدِ بِالصِّيَابَةِ; but I think that the right reading is بعيد العهد لِالصِّيَانَةِ, and have assumed this to be the case in my rendering]: or of which the feathers and the sinews [wherewith they are bound] have become uncompact: or slender and long. (TA.) b4: دَنٌّ شَارِفٌ [A wine-jar] of which the wine is old. (TA.) b5: And شَارِفٌ [alone] A receptacle for wine, such as a خَابِيَة and the like thereof.

(S, O.) b2: And شَارُوفٌ also signifies A broom: (S, O, K:) a Pers\. word, (S,) arabicized, from جَارُوبٌ, (O, K,) originally جَاىْ رُوبْ, which means “ a place-sweeper. ” (O.) أَشْرَفُ [More, and most, high, elevated, exalted, or eminent, in rank, condition, or estimation; &c.; generally meaning more, and most, high-born or noble; (see شَرِيفٌ;)] surpassing in شَرَف. (S, O.) b2: مَنْكِبٌ أَشْرَفُ A high shoulder; (S, O, K;) such as has a goodly rising; which implies what is termed إِهْدَآء [inf. n. of أَهْدَأَهُ, and here app. meaning the “ being curved in the back ”]. (TA.) And أُذُنٌ شَرْفَآءُ A long ear; (S, O, K;) standing up; rising above what is next to it: and so اذن ↓ شُرَافِيَّةٌ. (TA.) b3: See also شُرَافِىٌّ [أَشْرَفُ also signifies Having a prominent, or an apparent, ear: opposed to أَسَكُّ, q. v. b4: Hence,] الأَشْرَفُ is an appellation of The bat; (O, K, TA;) because its ears are prominent and apparent: it is bare of downy and other feathers, and is viviparous, not oviparous: so in the saying of Bishr Ibn-ElMoatemir, وَطَائِرٌ لَيْسَ لَهُ وَكْرُ وَطَائِرٌ أَشْرَفُ ذُو جُرْدَةٍ

[And a flying thing that has prominent and apparent ears and a denuded body, and a flying thing that has no nest]: (O, TA:) in the K is added, and another bird, that has no nest, &c.: but this is taken from an explanation of the latter hemistich of the verse cited above; which explanation is as follows: (TA:) the bird that has no nest is one of which the Bahránees [so in the TA, but accord. to the O “ the sailors,”] tell that it does not alight save while it makes, of the dust, or earth, a place in which it lays its eggs, and which it covers over; then it flies into the air, and its eggs break open of themselves at the expiration of the term thereof; and when its young ones are able to fly, they do after the habit of their parents. (O, L, TA: and the same is said, less fully, in the K.) b5: مَدِينَةٌ شَرْفَآءُ A city having شُرَف, (Mgh, O, K, *) pl. of شُرْفَةٌ [q. v.]: (O:) the pl. of أَشْرَفُ and of شَرْفَآءُ, accord. to rule, is شُرْفٌ. (Mgh. [In the copies of the K, الشُّرُفُ is erroneously said to be pl. of الشَّرْفَآءُ.]) It is said in a trad. of Ibn-' Abbás, أُمِرْنَا أَنْ نَبْنِىَ المَدَائِنَ شُرْفًا وَالمَسَاجِدَ جُمًّا i. e. We have been commanded to build cities with شُرَف and mosques without شُرَف. (Mgh, O. *) أَشْرَافٌ The ears and nose of a man: (O, K, TA:) its sing. in this sense is not mentioned: it is app. ↓ شَرَفٌ; like سَبَبٌ, sing. of أَسْبَابٌ. (TA.) تَشْرِيفٌ inf. n. of 2 [q. v.]. (S &c.) b2: [and also a post-classical term applied to An honorary present, such as a garment &c.: and a letter, i. e. an epistle, considered as conferring honour: pl. تَشْرِيفَاتٌ.]

مَشْرَفٌ: see شَرَفٌ, in the middle of the paragraph: and see also what here next follows.

مُشْرَفٌ, (O, K,) like مُكْرَمٌ, (K,) or ↓ مَشْرَفٌ [q. v. voce شَرَفٌ], (so in my two copies of the S,) A place from which one overlooks, i. e. looks upon, or views, [a thing] from above. (S, O, K.) b2: Hence the saying in a trad., مَا جَآءَكَ مِنْ هٰذَا المَالِ وَأَنْتَ غَيْرُ مُشْرَفٍ وَلَا سَائِلٍ فَخْذْهُ (O, TA) i. e.

Ar., sec. ed., iii. 53:)] and it is said that مَشْرَف was the name of a blacksmith who made swords: (TA:) one says سَيْفٌ مَشْرَفِىٌّ, (S, O, Msb,) not مَشَارِفِىٌّ, because a rel. n. is not formed from a pl. of the measure of مَشَارِفُ. (S, O.) مُشَرَّفٌ [Elevated, or exalted, in rank, condition, or estimation; or ennobled]; (K, TA;) an epithet applied to a man; from الشَّرَفُ. (TA.)

[When thou jestest with men, be not altogether foolish, but say like as they have said, and be not straitened, &c.,] some relate with ى [in the last word, saying تَتَزَيَّدِ: see art. زيد]. (TA.) زَنْدٌ [A piece of stick, or wood, for producing fire;;] the upper one of the two pieces of stick, or wood, (عُودَانِ, S, M, L, K, or خَشَبَتَانِ, L,) with which fire is produced [in a manner described below]; (S, M, L, K;) of the masc. gender; (Msb;) [or masc. and fem.: (see مِيقَادٌ, in art. وقد:)] and ↓ زَنْدَةٌ is the appellation of the lower one thereof, (S, M, L, K,) in which is the notch, or hollow, (فُرْضَة, M, L, or فَرْض, A in art. فرض,) or in which is a hole (ثَقْب, S), [whence the fire is produced;] and this is fem.: (S, M:) one end of the زَنْد is put into the فَرْض of the زَنْدَة, and the زَنْد is then [rapidly] twirled round, in producing fire: (A in art. فرض:) [the best kind of زَنْد is made of عَفَار; and the best kind of ↓ زَنْدَة, of مَرْخ: (see these two words:)] the dual زَنْدَانِ is applied to the two together; (S, M, L;) [and so, very often, is the sing. زَنْدٌ:] one should not say زَنْدَتَانِ; (S, M, L, K;) for it is a well-known rule that predominance is to be attributed to the masc.: (MF:) the pl. [of mult.] is ↓ زِنَادٌ, (S, M, Mgh, L, Msb, K,) which is also syn. with زَنْدٌ, (Kr, L,) and زُنُودٌ (L) and [of pauc.] أَزْنُدٌ and أَزْنَادٌ, (S, M, L, K,) the last anomalous [accord. to general opinion because the medial radical is not an infirm letter]; (TA;) and pl. pl. أَزَانِدُ. (L.) Hence one says, إِنَّهُ لَوَارِى الزَّنْدِ, (TA,) or وَارِى

And زَنْدَانِ فِى مُرَقَّعَةٍ: see art. رقع. and زَنْدَانِ فِى وِعَآءٍ (assumed tropical:) [Two pieces of stick, or wood, for producing fire, in a bag or the like]: a prov. denoting lowness, ignobleness, meanness, or weakness; and applied to two weak persons together.

(A, Mgh. *) And in some one or more of the dialects, الأَعْلَى مِنْ الزَّنْدَيْنِ is The سَاعِد [q. v.]; and الأَسْفَلُ مِنَ الزَّنْدَينِ, the ذِرَاع [q. v.]. (L and TA in art. سعد.)

ظرب

1 ظَرِبَ بِهِ, aor. ـَ He, or it, stuck, adhered, or clave, to him, or it. (K.) 2 ظُرِّبَتِ الحَوَافِرُ, inf. n. تَظْرِيبٌ, The solid hoofs became hard and strong. (T, K.) ظَرِبٌ A stone projecting (Lth, T, M, Msb, K) from a mountain or from rugged ground (Lth, T) and having a sharp point: (Lth, T, M, K:) or an expanded mountain, (M, K, TA,) accord. to some, that is not high: (TA:) or a small mountain: (M, K:) or a small hill: (T, S, Msb:) pl. ظِرَابٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and أَظْرُبٌ, (Nh, TA,) [the latter a pl. of pauc.,] the former pl. of a rare kind, for by rule it should be أَظْرَابٌ, and it seems as though they had imagined the sing. to be ظَرْبٌ, and so made the pl. like سِهَامٌ, pl. of سَهْمٌ: (Msb, TA:) or, accord. to En-Nadr, ظَرِبٌ signifies the smallest of [hills such as are termed]

آكَام, and the sharpest in stones, all its stones being sharp like knives, the white thereof and the black and of every colour: and the pl. is أَظْرَابٌ. (T.) [See also this pl. below.]

ظَرِبَانٌ (S, M, Msb, K, &c.) and ظِرْبَانٌ (AA, Az, Msb, TA) and ظَرْبَانٌ (IJ, TA) and ↓ ظِرَبَآءُ (M, CK, TA, or ↓ ظِرْبَآء or ↓ ظِرِبَآء accord. to two different copies of the K) A small, stinking beast, (Az, S, M, Msb, K,) resembling a cat, (Az, S, M, K,) or resembling a short Chinese dog, (Msb,) or resembling an ape or a monkey, (AA, T, M, TA,) or above the whelp of a dog, (El-Mustaksee, TA,) that often emits a noiseless wind from the anus; (M, Msb, * TA;) said by Az, on the authority of the handwriting of AHeyth, to be a beast that has small legs, their length being that of half a finger, but which is broad, its breadth being equal to the space measured by the extension of the thumb and the little finger, or of the thumb and the fore finger, and its length being a cubit, having a compact head, and its ears [for ادناه, in my original, I read أُذُنَاهُ] being like the cat's; (TA;) it is small and short in the ears, (أَصْلَمُ الأُذُنَيْنِ, M, Msb,) or having a stoppage of the ears, (أَصَمُّ الاذنين, TA,) its earholes [only] hearing a confused, or humming, or ringing, sound; (M, TA;) long in the snout, [but El-Farezdak speaks of it as having a short nose, as is shown in the S,] black in the back, white in the belly; (M, Msb, TA;) it is said that its back is [or rather contains] one single bone, without any قَفَص [or cage-formed structure of ribs, &c.], and that the sword has no effect upon it by reason of the hardness of its skin, unless striking its nose: (TA:) the pl. is ظَرَابِينُ, (M, K,) or ظَرَابِىُّ, (Az, T, S, Msb,) sometimes, (S,) or this latter also, (M, K,) as though it were pl. of ظِرْبَآء, (S,) or the first ى is a substitute for the ا [of the sing. ظَرِبَانٌ] and the second for the ن, (M,) and (quasi-pl. ns., M, K) ↓ ظِرْبَى (Az, T, M, Msb, K) and ↓ ظِرْبَآءُ, (M, K,) or ↓ ظِرْبَى, is a pl. like حِجْلَى pl. of حَجَلٌ, (S, TA,) and these two are [said to be] the only pls. of this measure, (AHei, TA,) and Lth and AHeyth say that ظِرْبَآءُ is incorrect, and is rightly ↓ ظِرْبَى. (T, TA.) A poet says, (namely, 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Hajjáj Ez-Zebeedee, M, TA,) أَلَا أَبْلِغَا قَيْسًا وَخِنْدِفَ أَنَّنِى

ضَرَبْتُ كَثِيرًا مَضْرِبَ الظَّرِبَانِ [Now tell ye Keys and Khindif that I have struck Ketheer in the place of striking of the ظربان], meaning that he had struck Ketheer Ibn-Shiháb (S, M, TA) El-Medh-hijee upon his face; for the ظربان has a line, or long mark, upon his face; and he likens the blow that he inflicted upon his face to that mark: [see مَضْرِبٌ:] and the same words of the latter hemistich, except that عُبَيْدًا is substituted in them for كَثِيرًا, occur in a verse of Asad Ibn-Nághisah, who slew 'Obeyd by order of En-Noamán. (TA.) One says, فَسَا بَيْنَنَا الظَّرِبَانُ, (S,) or بَيْنَهُم, (Msb, K,) [lit. The ظربان emitted a noiseless wind from its anus among us, or among them,] a prov., (S,) meaning that we, or they, became disunited, and alienated, one from another: [for] when this animal emits a noiseless wind from its anus in the garment of a man, the stink does not go away until the garment wears out: (S, Msb, K:) the Arabs of the desert assert that it does so in the garment of him who hunts it: (S:) and it is said to do so in the hole of the [lizard called] ضَبّ, which, being stupified by the foulness of the stink, is taken and eaten by it. (M, K, TA.) One says also, تَشَاتَمَا فَكَأَنَّمَا جَزَرَا بَيْنَهُمَا ظَرِبَانًا [They reviled each other, and it was as though they slaughtered between them a ظربان]: the foulness of their reviling being likened to the stink of that animal. (M, TA.) And يَتَنَازَعَانِ جِلْدَ الظَّرِبَانِ They two contend in pulling at the skin of the ظربان, meaning (assumed tropical:) they revile each other: (M, TA:) and يَتَمَاشَنَانِ جِلْدَ الظَّرِبَانِ They wipe their hands together upon the skin of the ظربان, [likewise] meaning (assumed tropical:) they revile each other. (IAar, T, TA.) الأَظْرَابُ [accord. to some] signifies Four teeth behind the نَوَاجِذ [or other grinders; app. meaning, of a horse]: (K:) or the sockets (أَسْنَاخ) of the teeth: (S, K:) [and it is said that] أَظْرَابُ اللِّجَامِ signifies the knots that are at the extremities of the bit. (M, TA.) J cites the following verse, ascribing it to 'Ámir Ibn-Et-Tufeyl, وَمُقَطِّعٍ حَلَقَ الرِّحَالَةِ سَابِحٍ

بَادٍ نَوَاجِذُهُ عَنِ الأَظْرَابِ [thus in the S, (but in the M and TA عَلَى

الأَظْرَابِ,) as though meaning And breaking in pieces the rings of the girth of the saddle, running with the fore legs well stretched forth, his grinders appearing from the sockets]: but IB says, [following the reading in the M and TA,] the verse is by Lebeed; and the poet is describing a horse that breaks in pieces the rings of the saddle by his springing forward, and whose grinders (نَوَاجِذُهُ) appear when he treads upon the [stones, or hills, called] ظِرَاب: [see ظَرِبٌ, of which both ظِرَابٌ and أَظْرَابٌ are said to be pls.:] also that the right reading is وَمُقَطِّعٌ [and سَابِحٌ]: and by the نواجذ are meant the ضَوَاحِك [or teeth next behind the canine teeth], accord. to Hr. (TA.) حَوَافِرُ مُظَرَّبَةٌ [accord. to the TA مُظَرِّبَةٌ, but this is evidently a mistake (see 2),] means [Solid hoofs] that have become hard and strong: (K, TA:) [but] accord. to El-Mufaddal, المُظَرَّبُ, like مُعَظَّم [in measure], signifies الَّذِى قَدْ لَوَّحَتْهُ الظِّرَابُ [app. meaning that which the stones, or hills, called ظِرَاب have altered, or, perhaps, heated, in its treading upon them]. (TA.)
