نوط

1 نَاطَهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. نَوْطٌ, He suspended it; hung it. (S, Msb, K.) You say, نُطْتُ القِرْبَةَ بِنِيَاطِهَا [I suspended the water-skin by its نياط, q. v]. (TA.) And نِيطَ عَلَيْهِ الشَّىْءُ The thing was suspended to him, or it: and نُوطَ عليه: (TA:) or عَلَيْهِ ↓ نُوِّطَ, (S; accord. to two copies: the pronoun relating to a camel when loaded.) and نِيطَ بِهِ الشَّىْءُ The thing was attached to, or connected with, him, or it. (TA.) It is said in a trad, مَا أَخَذْنَاهُ إِلَّا عَفْوًا بِلَا سَوْطٍ وَلَا نَوْطٍ i. e. [We took him not save with case;] with neither beating, [lit. with neither whip,] nor hanging [or clinging]. (TA.) And in a proverb, كُلُّ شَاهٍ بِرِجْلِهَا سَتُنَاطُ [Every sheep, or goat, shall be hung by its hind leg]: i. e. every one who commits a crime shall be punished for it: or, accord to As, one ought not to punish for a crime, or an offence, any but the committer thereof. (TA.) And Hassán Ibn-Thábit says, وَأَنْتَ دَعِىٌّ نِيطَ فِى آلِ هَاشِمٍ

كَمَا نِيطَ خَلْفَ الرَّاكِبِ القَدَحُ الفَرْدُ [And thou art an adopted person, who is connected with the family of Háshim, like as the single drinking-cup is connected behind the rider]. (TA.) See also شَاقَ, in art. شوق.2 نَوَّطَ see 1.8 انتاط It was, or became, suspended, or hung; it hung; (K, TA;) بِهِ to him, or it. (TA.) b2: [And hence,] (tropical:) It was, or became, distant, or remote, or far-extending. (S, TA.) You say, انتاطت المَفَازَةُ, and, by transposition, إِنْتَطَت, (tropical:) The desert extended far; [as though it were connected with a desert like it; (see نِيَاطٌ;)] it was far-extending. (TA.) And انتاطت المَغَازِى (tropical:) The places of war were distant, or far-extending: from نِيَاطُ المَفَازَةِ, meaning “ the far extent of the desert: ” or from النَوْطُ. (TA.) And انتاطت الدَّارُ (tropical:) The house, or place of abode, &c., was distant. (IAar, K, TA.) نَوْطٌ A thing, (S, K,) whatever it be, (S,) that is suspended, or hung, from another thing; (S, K;) an inf. n. used as a subst.: (K:) and particularly a thing that is put, or hung, upon a camel, (عِلَاوَةٌ,) between two halves of a load, بين عِدْلَيْنِ, (K,) or, as A 'Obeyd says, بَيْنَ العُودَيْنِ [which, if not a mistranscription, app. meansbetween the two staves of the saddle]; (TA:) the علاوة being thus called because it is suspended (تُنَاطُ) to the load: (Z, TA:) and a small [receptacle of palm-leaves, of the kind called] جُلَّة, (Az, S, K,) containing dates (S, K) and the like, (K,) which is suspended from a camel, (S,) being hung, by its handles, from the saddle of the camel of burden: (Az, TA;) such, says Az, I have heard thus called by the people of El-Bahreyn: (TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَنْوَاطٌ (S. K) and [of mult.] نِيَاطٌ (Az, K;) the former is pl. of نَوْطٌ in the general sense first mentioned above: and also signifies what is suspended (نُوِّطَ, as in two copies of the S, or نُوطَ, as in the TA) upon the camel when he is loaded: (S, TA:) and i. q. مَعَالِيقُ [things suspended to a beast of burden; such as the قُمْقُمَة and the قِرْبَة and the مِطْهَرَة]. (S, K.) It is said in a proverb عَاطٍ بَغَيْرِ أَنْوَاطٍ Taking [or reaching to take] without there being there anything suspended; which is like the saying “ Driving by singing without having a camel ” (S, L, See also art عطو.]) And in another proverb. إِنْ أَعْيَا البَعِيرُ فَزِدْهُ نَوْطًا [If the camel be fatigued, add thou to him an appendage to his full load] meaning, if he be slow and inobsequious in his pace, do not thou lighten his burden: (K:) accord. to As, إِنْ أَعْيَا فَزِدْهُ نَوْطًا is a proverb relating to the pressing a niggardly man. (TA.) b2: ذَاتُ أَنْوَاطٍ the name of A particular tree, (S, TA,) of great size, (S,) which was worshipped in the time of ignorance, said by IAth to be the name of a particular gum-acacia-free (سَمُرَة) to which the believers in a plurality of gods used to suspend their weapons, and around which they used to circuit. (TA.) b3: النَّوْطُ المُذَبْذِبُ occurs in a trad. as meaning The leg of a rider, from fatigue or some other cause, ever dangling, or moving to and fro. (TA.) نَيْطٌ: see نِيَاطٌ, in two places. and see art نيط.

نِيَاطٌ The loop-shaped handle (عُرْوَة) of a قِرْبَة [or water-skin]: (Msb:) the [appendage called]

مُعَلَّق [q. v.] of a bow; (S, K;) by which it is suspended: (K, voce خَطَمَ:) and of a قِرْبَة: [by which it is suspended; (see 1, second sentence;) and of anything. (K.) b2: See also شِيَاقٌ. b3: Also (S, Msb [in the K, “or,” which is evidently a mistake,]) النِّيَاطُ [i. e. نِيَاطُ القَلْبِ The suspensory of the heart;] a vein, (S, Msb,) or a thick vein, (K,) [app. the ascending aor. a,] by which the heart is suspended (S, Msb, K) from, (مِنْ, S, Msb [or possibly this may mean forming a part of,]) or to, (إِلَى, K,) the وَتِين, [which seems here to signify the descending aor. a, or, accord. to the second rendering of من, suggested above, the aor. a altogether,] (S, Msb, K,) the cutting, or severing, of which causes death; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ نَيْط: (S:) pl. [of pauc.] أَنْوِطَةٌ and [of mult.] نُوطٌ, with damm, (Az, K,) because the ى in نِيَاطٌ is originally و: the latter is allowable when the number is not meant [to be limited to a few]: or, accord. to some, there are two things thus called: the upper being that of the heart: and the lower, the فَرْج. (Az, L.) [Hence,] المُقَطَّعَةُ النِّيَاطِ (K, and so in a copy of the S, excepting that the former word is there without the article,) is applied to (tropical:) The أَرْنَب [or female hare], (S, K,) like مُقَطَّعَةُ الأَسْحَارِ, (S,) as an appellation of good omen, i. e. as meaning that her نياط will be severed: or, as some say, المُقَطِّعَةُ النِّيَاطِ, (K, and so in some copies of the S, excepting that the former word is there without the article,) as meaning that, by reason of her swiftness, her نياط, or [as in the A,] the نياط of [every one of] the dogs [that pursue her], will be severed. (K.) Hence also the saying, ↓ رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِالنَّيْطِ, meaning [God smote him, or may God smite him,] with death. (S.) [See also art. نيط.] [Hence likewise,] النِّيَاطُ is applied to (tropical:) Two stars [app. s and t of Scorpio] between which is قَلْبُ العَقْرَبِ [which is the star and of that constellation]. (Sgh, K, TA.) b4: Also, i. q. الفُؤَادُ [which generally means The heart; but is probably here used in one of its other senses, namely, the appendages of the œsophagus, consisting of the liver and lungs and heart]. (K.) b5: Also, A certain vein lying within the صُلْب [i. e. backbone, or back], beneath the [portion of flesh and sinew called the] مَتْن; and so ↓ النَّائِطُ: (K:) or the latter is a vein extending in, or along, the صُلْب, [in some copies of the K, قَلْب, which, as is said in the TA, is a mistake,] by the cutting of which the مَصْفُور [or person in whose belly is yellow water, as explained in the TA,] is treated for the purpose of cure. (S, K.) b6: نِيَاطُ المَفَازَةِ (tropical:) The far extent of the desert: (TA:) or of the way thereof; as though it were connected with another desert, (S, K,) hardly coming to an end. (S, TA.) [Thus,] البَعِيدُ نِيَاطُهُ, applied to the Hijáz, means البَعِيدُ مُعَلَّقُهُ (assumed tropical:) [i. e. Whereof every connected part, or appendant tract, is far-extending]. (Ham, p. XXX). The Rájiz, El-'Ajjáj, says, وَبَلْدَةٍ بَعِيدَةِ النِّيَاطِ مَجْهُولَةٍ تَغْتَالُ خَطْوَ الخَاطِى (assumed tropical:) [Many a region far extending, unknown, rendering unapparent the trace of the stepping of the stepper]. (S and O in the present art. and in art. غول.) النَّائطُ: see نِيَاطٌ.

تَنَوُّطٌ, (S, K,) like تَكَرُّمٌ, (K,) and تُنَوِّطٌ, (S, K,) with damm to the ت (K) and fet-h to the ن (TA) and kesr to the و, (K,) or تَنَوِّطٌ, (as in some copies of the S,) and تُنُوِّطٌ, (TA, voce تُبُشِّرٌ,) A certain bird, that lets down strings from a tree, (As, S, K,) and weaves its nest like an oilflask, suspended to those strings, (K,) then produces her young therein; and hence its appellation: (As, S:) a certain bird, like the قَارِيَة in blackness, [or rather in dinginess,] that constructs its nest between two twigs, or branches, or upon one twig, or branch, making its nest long, so that a man cannot reach its eggs until he introduces his arm to the shoulder-joint: or, accord. to Aboo-'Alee, a certain bird, that suspends pieces of the bark of trees [formed into strings], and makes its nest at their extremities, to protect itself from serpents and men and ذَرّ [or young ants, or small red ants]: (TA [see also صَافِرٌ:]) called in Persian كِيپُوْ: (Kzw:) n. un. with ة. (S, K.) [See De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, 2nd ed., vol. iii., p. 499.] Hence the proverb, أَصْنَعُ مِنْ تَنَوُّطٍ [More skilled in fabricating than a تنوّط]. (Meyd.) تَنْوُاطٌ What is hung (S, K) from, (S,) or upon, (K,) the [kind of vehicle called] هَوْدَجٌ, for ornament: (S, K:) or the implements, or apparatus, &c., that are hung upon a horse. (Ham, p. 165) b2: And hence, (tropical:) Adventives; or persons who introduce themselves among a people, and live among them, not being of their race; and persons whose fathers are free men, or Arabs, and whose mothers are slaves, and who have become conjoined with the genuine and pure Arabs, not being of them: for ذُو التَّنْوَاطِ; [or ذَوُو التَّنْوَاطِ;] the latter of these two words being originally an inf. n.: or it may be an inf. n. used as an epithet. (Ham, ibid.) [See also مَنُوطٌ.]

مَنَاطٌ A place of suspension, or hanging. (Msb.) b2: [Hence the saying,] فُلَانٌ مِنِّى مَنَاطَ الثُّرَيَّا (tropical:) [Such a one is with respect to me as though he were in the place of suspension of the Pleiades]; i. e., in distance: (Sb, S, K * [in the K, هذا is put for فُلَانٌ; and in the CK, مَناطُ is erroneously put for مناطَ]:) or the meaning is, in such a station: the prep. being understood, as in ذَهَبْتُ الشَأْمَ and دَخَلْتُ البَيْتَ: Z says, هُمْ مِنِّى مَنَاطَ الثُّرَيَّا (tropical:) [they are &c.] by reason of their elevated state. (TA.) مَنُوطٌ Suspended; hung. (K.) You say, هٰذَا مَنُوطٌ بِهِ This is suspended, or hung, to him, or it. (K.) b2: [Hence the saying,] هٰذَا رَجُلٌ مَنُوطٌ بِالقَوْمِ (assumed tropical:) This is a man adventive to the people; one who has introduced himself among them, and lives among them, not being of their race: (K, * TA:) or i. q. دَعِىٌّ [one whose origin, or lineage, is suspected; &c.]: (K:) and مَنُوطٌ مُذَبْذِبٌ is also applied to a person of this latter description who betakes himself to a people; the latter epithet being added to denote that he knows not to whom to assert himself related, like the wind wavering to the right and left. (TA.) See also تَنْوَاطٌ.]

مُنْتَاطٌ (tropical:) Distant, or remote; and far extending. (TA.) You say, مُنْتَاطُ المَحَلِّ (tropical:) Whose place of abode is distant. (TA.) And غَايَةٌ مُنْتَاطَةٌ (tropical:) A distant goal, or scope; or a far-extending space. (TA.)

أ1 قَرَأَ الشَّىْءَ, [aor. ـَ inf. n. قُرْآنٌ, He collected together the thing; put it, or drew it, together; (S, O, K, TA;) part to part, or portion to portion. (S, O, TA.) [This seems to be generally regarded as the primary signification.] b2: Hence the saying of the Arabs, مَا قَرَأَتْ هٰذِهِ النَّاقَةُ سَلًى قَطُّ and مَا قَرَأَتْ جِنِينًا, meaning This she-camel has not contracted her womb upon a young one: (S, O, TA:) but most say that the meaning is, her womb has not comprised, or enclosed, a fœtus:or the former saying means she has not borne a fœtus: accord. to AHeyth, this same saying and مَا قَرَأَتْ مَلْقُوحًا are both said to mean, by some, she has not borne in her womb a young one (??): and by some, she has not let fall a young one, ever; i. e. she has not been pregnant: and accord. to ISh, one says, ↓ ضَرَبَ الفَحْلُ النَّاقَةَ عَلَى غَيْرِ قَرْءٍ [which seems to mean The stallion covered the she-camel without her bringing forth, or becoming pregnant; for he adds that قرء الناقة means ضعتها; app. ضَعَتُهَا or ضِعَتُهَا; but I have not found ضَعَةٌ nor ضِعَةٌ among the inf. ns. of وَضَعَتْ meaning “ she brought forth; ” and I rather think that the right reading is ضَغَنُهَا or ضِغْنُهَا, and that the meaning therefore is, without her inclining, or being desirous: see 10, third sentence; and see قَرْءُ الفَرَسِ]: and there is another saying; that لَمْ تَقْرَأْ جَنِينًا means She has not, or did not, cast forth a fœtus, or a young one. (TA.) One says also, of the she-camel, (K, TA,) and of the ewe, or she-goat, (TA,) قَرَأَتْ, alone, meaning She became pregnant: (K, TA:) and likewise, of the pregnant [in general], or of the she-camel, accord. to different copies of the K, (TA,) meaning she brought forth: (K, TA:) ISh says that قَرَأَتْ is used in relation to a she-camel; and ↓ أَقْرَأَتْ, in relation to a woman: [each, app., in the former sense and in the latter:] and that one says ↓ نَاقَةٌ قَارِئٌ; pl. نُوقٌ قَوَارِئُ. (TA.) b3: See also 4.

A2: قَرَأَ الكِتَابِ, (S, O, Msb, * K, *) and بِهِ, (Msb, * K,) the verb being trans. by itself and by means of ب, or this particle is redundant, (Msb,) and sometimes the ء is suppressed, so that one says [قَرَى and] قَرَيْتُ

&c., (TA,) aor. ـَ and قَرُاَ, (K,) the latter aor. on the authority of Ez-Zejjájee, as is said in the L, but generally ignored, (TA,) inf. n. قِرَآءَةٌ and قُرْآنٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and قَرْءٌ, (Msb, K,) this last mentioned by Az; (Msb;) and ↓ اقترأهُ; (K;) He read [the book, or Scripture], or recited [it]: (K, TA:) or قَرَأْتُ القُرْآنَ means [properly, or etymologically, accord. to some,] I uttered [the words of] the Kur-án in a state of combination [or uninterruptedly]; (O, TA;) as Ktr is related to have said: (O:) [or قَرَأَ as used in a case of this kind app. signifies properly he read, or recited, the Scripture chanting; like as أَنْشَدَ properly signifies “ he recited ” poetry “ chanting with a high voice: ” (for Scripture and poetry are usually chanted:) then, he read, or recited, anything in any manner, without, or from, or in, a book.] It is said in a trad., مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يَقْرَأَ القُرْآنَ غَضًّا كَمَا أُنْزِلَ فَلْيَقْرَأْهُ قِرَآءَةَ أُمِّ عَبْدٍ [He who desires to read, or recite, the Kur-án freshly, like as it was revealed, let him read, or recite, it in the manner of Ibn-Umm-'Abd]; meaning فَلْيُرَنِّلْ كَتَرْتِيلِهِ [properly, let him read, or recite, in a leisurely manner, with distinct utterance, and with moderation; but conventionally, let him chant, in a peculiar, distinct, and leisurely, manner; like as he did]: or يُحَزِّنْ كَتَحْزِينِهِ [let him read, or recite, with a slender and plaintive voice, like as he did]: or يَحْدُرْهُ كَحَدْرِهِ [let him read it, or recite it, quickly, like as he did]. (O.) And in a trad. of I'Ab, it is said, كَانَ لَا يَقْرَأُ فِى الظُّهْرِ وَالعَصْرِ, meaning He used not to recite [the Kur-án] aloud in the [prayers of the] noon and the [period of the afternoon called the] عْصر: or he used not to make himself to hear his reciting: as though he heard persons reciting and making themselves and those near them to hear. (TA.) The saying, in the Kur [lxxv. 17 and 18], إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَهُ فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِع قُرْآنَهُ means, Verily on us is the collecting thereof [i. e. of the Kur-án] and the reciting thereof; and when we recite it, then follow thou the reciting thereof:or, accord. to I'Ab, and when we explain it to thee, then do thou according to that which we have explained to thee: (S, O, TA:) or the meaning [signified and implied] is, verily on us is the collecting thereof in thy mind, and the fixing the recitation thereof on thy tongue; and when we recite it to thee by the tongue of Gabriel, then follow thou the reciting thereof, and often recur therein so that it may become firmly rooted in thy understanding: (Bd:) [therefore قُرْآنَهُ in the former instance means the teaching thee to recite it; and thus we may explain the assertion that]

قَرَأَ and ↓ أَقْرَأَ are syn. in like manner as are عَلَا قِرْنَهُ and استعلاهُ. (Sb, TA.) See 4. قَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ means He read, or recited, to him the Kur-án, &c., [as a teacher, or an informant; (as is shown by phrases in the Kur xxvi. 199 and lxxxiv. 21;) like تَلَا عَلَيْهِ: and also, as a conventional and post-classical phrase,] as a pupil, or learner, to his sheykh, or preceptor. (L.) قَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ and السَّلَامَ ↓ أَقْرَأَهُ are syn., (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) signifying He conveyed, or delivered, to him the salutation: or the latter phrase is not used unless the salutation is written: (K, TA:) or belongs to a particular dial.; and is used when the salutation is written, meaning he made him to read the salutation: (AHát, TA:) the aor. of the verb in the former phrase is قَرَاَ, and the inf. n. is قِرَآءَةٌ: As says that the making that verb trans. by itself is a mistake; therefore one should not say اِقْرَأْهُ السَّلَامَ [meaning Convey thou, or deliver thou, to him, salutation]. (Msb.) b2: See also 5.

A3: and see 4, first quarter.2 قرّأت جَارِيَةً She kept at her abode a girl, or young woman, until she should menstruate, in order to find if she were free from pregnancy. (Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà, S, O.) And قِرّئَتْ She was kept in confinement [for the purpose above mentioned, or] in order that the termination of her menstruations might be waited for, or awaited, (K,) or until the termination of her عِدَّة [q. v.]. (TA.) 3 قارأهُ, (O, K.) inf. n. مُقَارَأَةٌ and قِرَآءٌ, (K,) He read, or studied, with him, each of them teaching the other. (O, K.) b2: It is said of the [ch. of the Kur-án entitled] سُورَةُ الأَحْزَاب, as Ibn-Háshim related that trad., إِنْ كَانَتْ لَتُقَارِئُ سُورَةَ البَقَرَةِ هِىَ أَطْوَلُ i. e. [Verily (إِنْ being here a contraction of إِنَّ as in the Kur xvii. 75 and 78 &c.)] it was equal as to the time required to read it, or to recite it, to [that which is entitled] the سورة of the بقرة [or it was longer]: but most related it as commencing with the words ان كانت لَتُوَازِى. (TA.) 4 اقرأت, said of a woman: see 1, former half. Said of a she-camel, (K, TA,) and of a ewe, or she-goat, (TA,) She retained the seed of the male in her womb: (K, TA:) and when this is the case, one says that she is فى قِرْوَتِهَا, which is anomalous, for ↓ فى قِرْأَتِهَا; (TA in the present art.;) meaning in the first period of her pregnancy, before its becoming apparent, or manifest. (TA in art. قرو.) [And accord. to Freytag, (app. in the phrase أَقْرَأَتْ سَمًّا,) the verb is expl. in the Kitáb el-Addád as said of a serpent, meaning It retained poison for the space of a month.] b2: Also, said of a woman, She menstruated: and she became pure from the menstrual discharge: (S, O, * Msb, K, TA:) and so ↓ قَرَأَتْ, in both of these senses, (Msb, TA,) aor. ـَ inf. n. قَرْءٌ; (Msb;) or in the former sense; (Akh, S, K;) and [accordingly] one says, قَرَأَتْ حَيْضَةً أَوْ حَيْضَتَيْنِ [so in copies of the S, agreeably with what immediately precedes, but in one of my copies of the S and in the O and TA, أَقْرَأَت, meaning, she menstruated once or twice]; (S, O, * TA; *) and قَرَأَتْ signifies she saw the blood [of the menses app. for the first time]: (TA:) and أَقْرَأَتْ signifies she became one who had the menstrual discharge. (Akh, S, O, TA.) [Accord. to Zj, as I gather from the TA, the second of the significations in the sentence immediately preceding is from the collection of the blood in the womb: in the opinion of IAth, it and the first signification are from relation to time: but I rather incline to think that the converse of this is the case, and that hence are deduced several other meanings here following.] b3: اقرأت الرِّيَاحُ (S, K) The winds blew, (K,) or began [to blow], (S,) in their time, or season. (S, K.) b4: اقرأ (said of a man, O, TA) He reverted, or turned back, (O, K, TA,) from his journey. (O, TA.) And He returned (K, TA) from his journey. (TA.) b5: And He, or it, approached, or drew near. (K.) You say, أَقْرَأْتُ مِنْ أَهْلِى I approached, or drew near to, my family. (O.) And أَقْرَأَتْ حَاجَتُكَ They object of want approached, or drew near; or has approached, &c. (S, O.) b6: And It set, (K, TA,) said of a star: or the time of its setting came, or drew near. (TA.) أَقْرَأَتِ النُّجُومُ signifies The stars set: (O:) b7: and also (O) The stars delayed [to bring] their rain. (S, O.) b8: And اقرأ is also syn. with أَخَّرَ, (K, TA,) in the phrase اقرأ حَاجَتَهُ [He postponed, or delayed, the object of his want:] (TA:) and, (K, TA,) as some say, (TA,) syn. with اِسْتَأْخَرَ [He, or it, was, or became, behind, backward, late, &c.:] (K, TA:) [but it should be observed that أَخَّرَ is often intrans., and syn. with اِسْتَأْخَرَ; therefore one signification may possibly in this instance be meant by both: such, however, is not the case accord. to SM, as has been shown above, and as is further shown by his saying,] perhaps the saying of the author of the K, that it is syn. with أَخَّرَ, may have been taken from the phrase أَعَتَّمْتَ قِرَاكَ أَمْ أَقْرَأْتَهُ i. e. Hast thou withheld thy entertainment for the guest, or guests, or hast thou postponed it? but his explanation is obviously loose and defective. (TA.) b9: أَقْرَأْتُ فِى الشِّعْرِ is from الأَقْرَآءُ [pl. of القَرْءُ or القُرْءُ: hence it seems to mean I rhymed, or versified: compare أَرْجَزَ from الرَّجَزُ, and أَرْمَلَ from الرَّمَلُ, &c.]. (O. [See also 8.]) A2: أَقْرَأهُ, (L, K, TA,) inf. n. إِقْرَآءٌ, (TA,) He (a sheykh, or preceptor, L, TA) made him, or taught him, to read, or recite; (L, K, TA;) [and so ↓ قَرَأَهُ, inf. n. قُرْآنٌ, as shown before:] see 1, last quarter. One says, أَقْرَأَهُ القُرْآنَ (S, O, L, TA) and الحَدِيثَ (L, TA) He made him, or taught him, to read, or recite, the Kur-án and the tradition. (L, TA.) Hence

أَقْرَأَهُ السَّلَامَ: (AHát, TA:) see 1, near the end. b2: See also what next follows.5 تقرّأ He devoted himself to religious exercises [and particularly to the reading, or reciting, of the Kur-án]; (S, K;) as also ↓ قَرَأَ; (O, TA;) and ↓ اقرأ: (K, TA:) and i. q. تَفَقَّهَ [i. e. he learned knowledge, or science; or particularly الفِقْه, meaning the science of the law. (K.) 8 إِقْتَرَاَ see 1, former half. [After the mention of اقترأهُ as syn. with قَرَأَهُ, it is added in the TA, يقال اقترأت فى الشعر, in which اقترأت is evidently a mistranscription; and not attributable to the copyist, but to the author, of the TA, for the whole sentence is misplaced.]10 استقرأ الأَشْيَآءَ, (Msb,) or استقرى الاشياءَ, (TA in art. قرو,) [both probably correct, as dial. vars.,] He investigated the أَقْرَآء [or modes, or manners of being, (pl. of ↓ قَرْءٌ or قُرْءٌ, and of قَرْوٌ,)] of the things, for acquiring a knowledge of their conditions and properties. (Msb in this art., and TA in art. قرو.) [And one says also, استقرأ الكتَابَ, meaning He investigated the book to find some particular thing.] b2: And استقرأ الجَمَلُ النَّاقَةَ The he-camel left the she-camel (تَارَكَهَا [in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K باركها]) in order that he might see whether she had conceived or not: (S, K:) [or whether she were in her state of desire: for SM adds, after stating that this is from AO,] as long as the وديق [i. e. وَدِيق, an epithet which seems to be properly applied to a female solid-hoofed animal, but here app. applied to a she-camel,] is in her وديق [a mistranscription for وِدَاق or a noun cognate there with], one says of her, ↓ هِىَ فِى قُرْئِهَا and أَقْرَائِهَا.

قِرْأَةٌ The وَبَآء [by which is here meant the common, or general, disease] (As, S, O, K) of a country; (S, O;) of which it is said that when a person has come to that country and remained in it fifteen nights [or days, accord. to one of my copies of the S,] the قرأة thereof quits him; or, as the people of El-Hijáz say, its قِرَة; meaning that if he be affected with a malady after that, it will not be from the وبآء [or قرأة] of the country: (As, S, O;) and it is also termed ↓ قِرْءٌ. (TA. [But I think it not improbable that this last word may have originated in a mistranscription of قِرَةٌ.]) A2: See also 4, second sentence.

القُرْآنُ is said by some of the erudite to be originally an inf. n. of قَرَأْتُ الشَّىْءَ meaning “ I collected together the thing,” or of قَرَأْتُ الكِتَابَ meaning “ I read, or recited, the book, or Scripture; ” and then conventionally applied to signify The Book of God that was revealed to Mo-hammad: (Kull:) it is [also expl. as signifying] the revelation, (K, TA,) meaning that which is termed العَزِيز [the mighty, or inimitable, &c.], which is read, or recited, and written in books, or volumes: (TA:) used as a subst., and unrestrictedly, it is applied in the language of the law to the substance itself [whereof the Kur-án consists], and lexically to the alphabetical letters [in which it is written] for these are what are read; as when one says, كَتَبْتُ القُرْآنَ [I wrote the Kur-án], and مَسِسْتُهُ [I touched it]: (Msb:) [and without the article ال, it is applied to any portion of the Kur-án:] accord. to AO, (S,) and Zj, (TA,) it is thus called because it collects and comprises the سُوَر [or chapters]: (S, O, TA:) and IAth says that the original meaning of the word is the collection; and that the قُرْآن is so called because it has collected the histories [of the prophets &c.], and commands and prohibitions, and promises and threats, [and the like is said in the O,] and the آيَات [i. e. verses, or signs], and the سُوَر [or chapters]: but Ismá'eel Ibn-Kustan- teen, to whom, as a disciple to his preceptor, EshSháfi'ee read, or recited, the Kur-án, is related on the latter's authority to have said that القُرَانُ is a subst., and with hemz, and not taken from قَرَأْتُ, but is a name for the Book of God, like التَّوْرَاةُ [the Book of the Law revealed to Moses] and الإِنْجِيلُ [the Gospel]: and it is related that Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà used to pronounce القران without hemz [like many others, but it is, and always has been, pronounced by most with hemz]. (TA.) b2: It is also applied to The divinely appointed act of prayer (الصَّلَاةُ) because it comprises recitation [of words of the Kur-án]. (IAth, TA.) قَرِىْءٌ: see قَرْءٌ, last quarter.

(TA.) And قُرَّآءُ is sometimes a pl. of قَارِئٌ. (S.) قَارِئٌ as an epithet applied to a she-camel; pl. قَوَارِئُ: see 1, former half.

(Msb, K.) b2: And syn. with قُرَّآءٌ, q. v. (K.) A3: See also قَرْءٌ, first quarter, in two places.

A4: هٰذَا وَقْتُ قَارِئِ الرِّيحِ means This is the time of the blowing of the wind. (TA.) A5: It is also said to signify The top, or upper part, of a قَصْر [or pavilion, &c.]. (O.) أَقْرَؤُكُمْ, occurring in a trad., may mean He, of you, who reads, or recites, [the Kur-án] most: or it may mean, who is most sound in his knowledge of the Kur-án, and who retains it most in his memory. (Ibn-Ketheer, TA.) مُقْرِئٌ [thus withot ة] Menstruating: (S, Msb:) and also being pure from the menstrual discharge. (Msb.)

[See the verb.]

صَحِيفَةٌ مَقْرُوْءَةٌ, (K, TA,) the only form of the latter word allowed by Ks and Fr, (TA,) and مَقْرُوَّةٌ and مَقْرِيَّةٌ, (K, TA,) which are extr., except in the dial. of those who say قَرَيْتُ [ for قَرَأْتُ], (TA,) [A writing read.]

قنح

1 قَنَحَهُ, (S, K, TA,) aor. ـَ (K, TA,) inf. n. قَنْحٌ, (S, TA,) He bent it, or curved it, (S, K, TA,) i. e. a thing, (S,) or a stick, or branch, (TA,) [at the end,] like a مِحْجَن, (S, K, TA,) or صَوْلَجَان. (TA.) b2: And قَنَحَ البَابَ He hewed, or cut out, a wooden implement, (called a قُنَّاحَة [q. v.], L,) and with it raised [and opened] the door; as also ↓ اقنحهُ: (T, L, K, TA:) or [simply] he raised [and opened] the door with the wooden implement called a قُنَّاحَة; and so ↓ قنّحهُ: (A:) [or] البالبَ ↓ قنّح, (S, K,) inf. n. تَقْنِيحٌ, (K,) He adjusted (أَصْلَحَ) a قُنَّاحَة to the door. (S, K.) A2: And قَنَحَ, (K, TA,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,) said of one drinking, He satisfied his thirst, and, by reason thereof, raised his head; and showed, or expressed, dislike of drinking (تَكَارَهَ عَلَى

الشُّرْبِ); like ↓ تقنّح; (K, TA;) which is the more approved [and to which, as well as to the former verb, both of the clauses of the explanation above relate, as will be shown by what follows]: in some of the copies [of the K] like

↓ قنّح: accord. to AHn, one says, قَنَحَ مِنَ الشَّرَابِ, aor. and inf. n. as above, meaning he sipped [of the wine or beverage]; and accord. to Az, ↓ تَقَنَّحْتُ مِنَ الشَّرَابِ, which, he says, is the prevailing expression: hence the saying of Umm-Zara, أَشْرَبُ

↓ فَأَتَقَنَّحُ, i. e. I [drink, and] stop, or interrupt, drinking, and proceed leisurely therein: or, I drink after the satisfying of thirst: which latter explanation, mentioned on the authority of Az, is that which is approved by Sh and Az, in opposition to Aboo-'Abd-Allah Et-Tuwál, who thought it to mean I drink by little and little. (TA. [See also this saying of Umm-Zara, with another reading of it, in the last sentence but one of art. قمح.]) 2 قَنَّحَ see above, second sentence, in two places: A2: and see also the third sentence.4 أَقْنَحَ see 1, second sentence.5 تَقَنَّحَ see 1, third sentence, in three places.

قِنْحٌ [thus accord. to the L] is expl. in the 'Eyn as meaning Thy making a قُنَّاحَة with which thou wilt fasten (تَشُدُّ) the side-post of thy door and the like; termed by the Persians قانه [app. a mistranscription for فَانَهٌ, a wooden peg, which, dropping into the bolt of a lock, or the like, prevents its being opened until the said peg is pulled up]; but ISd says, I know not how this is, for the explanation is not good; and I think قِنْحٌ here is a dial. var. of قُنَّاحٌ [q. v.]. (L.) قَنَّاحٌ and ↓ قَنَّاحَةٌ [thus in the L, but app. the ق should be with damm in both words,] A stick, or branch, bent, or curved, [at the end,] like a صَوْلَجَان [q. v.]. (L.) قُنَّاحٌ A bar (مِتْرَس [or مَتَرْس]) of a door. (IAar, L.) قَنَّاحَةٌ: see قَنَّاحٌ.

قُنَّاحَةٌ A crooked, or curved, long مِفْتَاح [or instrument for opening a door]: (S, L, K:) [from what here follows, it seems to be a kind of wooden lever, with a crooked, or curved, end, with which a door is raised and opened: (see also 1:)] a wooden implement with which a door is raised [and opened, app. by lifting the lower pivot (which serves as a hinge) out of its socket]: (A, L:) and any piece of wood that is inserted beneath another [as a lever] in order to move it.
