(K, TA.) You say, عَزَبَ بِهَا, referring to sheep or goats, He went to a distance, or far off, with them: so in a trad.: or, as some relate it, بها ↓ عزّب, meaning he went with them to a remote pasturage: and he pastured them (namely, camels,) at a distance from the place of abode of the tribe, not repairing, or returning, to them [in the evening]: and ↓ تعزّب, and thus the verb is written in copies of the K in a place where some copies have يَعْزُبُ, occurs in the phrase تعزّب عَنْ أَهْلِهِ وَمَالِهِ [He went away to a distance from his family and his cattle, or camels &c.]. (TA.) And عَزَبَتِ الإِبِلُ The camels went away to a distance in the pasturage, not returning in the evening: (S, O:) and in like manner one says of sheep or goats. (O.) And لَا يَعْزُبُ عَنْ عِلْمِهِ شَىْءٌ Nothing is absent from his (God's) knowledge. (TA. [See Kur x.62 and xxxiv. 3.]) And عَزَبَ طُهْرُ المُرْأَةِ [The woman's state of pureness from the menstrual discharge was a remote thing] means (assumed tropical:) the woman's husband was absent from her: (K:) or [rather] is said of the woman when her husband is absent from her. (S, O.) And عَزَبَ عَنْ فُلَانٍ حِلْمُهُ [Such a one's forbearance quitted him]; (S, O;) as also ↓ اعزب. (O.) b2: Also, aor. ـُ (Msb, K,) inf. n. عُزْبَةٌ and عُزُوبَةٌ, (Msb, MF, TA,) or these are simple substs., (S, K,) (assumed tropical:) He was without a wife; or in a state of celibacy. (Msb, K.) [And app. عَزَبَتْ is said in like manner of a woman, meaning (assumed tropical:) She was without a husband. See also 5.]

b3: And عَزَبَتِ الأَرْضُ (assumed tropical:) The land, whether fruitful or unfruitful, was, or became, destitute of inhabitants; had in it no one. (S, O, K.) 2 عزّب بِهَا: see 1, second sentence. عُزِّبَ بِهِ عَنِ الدَّارِ is said of a herd of pasturing camels [meaning It was taken to pasture at a distance from the place of abode]. (S, O, K. *) b2: It is said in a trad. (S, O) of the Prophet, (O,) مَنْ قَرَأَ القُرْآنَ فِى أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً فَقَدْ عَزَّبَ, meaning (tropical:) [He who reads, or recites, the Kur-án in forty nights] goes to a remote period of time from his commencement; (S, O, TA;) or makes the time of the commencement thereof to be remote; (A;) and is tardy in doing so. (TA.) A2: عزّب إِبِلَهُ: see 4. b2: لَيْسَ لِفُلَانٍ امْرَأَةٌ تُعَزِّبُهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) There is not for such a one a woman to put an end to his celibacy by marriage, is like the saying هِىَ تُمَرِّضُهُ

“ she takes care of him in his sickness. ” (O, TA.) b3: And one says, فُلَانٌ يُعَزِّبُ فُلَانًا وَيُرْبِضُهُ (assumed tropical:) [Such a one undertakes, or manages, the affairs of such a one, and his expenses]; i. e., acts for him like a treasurer. (TA, from the Nawádir el-Aaráb. [In art. ربض in the TA, عزّبه is said to signify, agreeably with the explanation above, قَامَ عَلَيْهِ.]) 4 اعزب He made to be distant, or remote; or to go far away. (K, * TA.) You say, اعزبهُ اللّٰهُ God made him, or may God make him, to go away, or far away. (S, TA.) b2: اعزب الإِبِلَ He drove the camels to a distance in the pasturage, not to return in the evening. (TA.) And اعزب إِبِلَهُ and ↓ عزّبها He made his camels to pass the night in the pasturage, not bringing them back in the evening. (TA.) And اعزب جَمَلَهُ is like أَضَلَّهُ [He made his camel to go astray]. (A.) b3: [Hence,] اعزب اللّٰهُ عَنْهُ حِلْمَهُ (assumed tropical:) God made his forbearance to become remote from him. (O.) b4: And أَعْزَبْنَا الكَلَأَ, (O,) or أَعْزَبْنَا alone, (S,) We lighted upon remote herbage. (S, O.) A2: As intrans.: see 1, first sentence: and the same in the latter half. b2: [Hence,] اعزب القَوْمُ The people's camels went away to a distance in the pasturage, not to return in the evening. (S, * O, * K, * TA.) 5 تعزّب: see 1, second sentence. b2: Also He passed the night with his camels in the pasturage, not returning in the evening. (TA.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) He abstained from marriage: (K, TA:) and in like manner تعزّبت is said of a woman. (TA.) One says, تعزّب زَمَانًا ثُمَّ تَأَهَّلَ (S, O) (assumed tropical:) He was without a wife [a long time, or he abstained from marriage a long time; then he took a wife]. (O.) [See also 1, near the end.]

عَزَبٌ [correctly thus, but in the sense here following written in the TA without any syll. signs, and in the O written عِزَّبٌ,] A man who goes away to a distance into the country, or in the land. (O, TA.) [And One who goes far away with his camels to pasture: pl. أَعْزَابٌ. (See also عَزِيبٌ and عَازِبٌ and مُعْزِبٌ and مِعْزَابَةٌ.)] هِرَاوَةُ الأَعْزَابِ means The staff of those who go far away with their camels to pasture; and a horse is likened thereto, (S, O, TA,) on account of its compactness and smoothness; so in a marginal note in the L: (TA:) [Sgh, however, says,] thus in some of the lexicons, but in my opinion, (O,) it was the name of a mare which was not to be outstripped, and which was thus called because her owner gave her gratuitously for the use of those of his people who had no wives, who made predatory attacks upon her, and when one of them acquired for himself property and a wife, he resigned her to another of his people: (O, K: *) whence the prov.

أَعَزُّ مِنْ هِرَاوَةِ الأَعْزَابِ [More highly esteemed than Hiráwet-el-Aazáb]. (O.) See an ex. in a verse cited voce عَدِيدٌ. b2: See also عَازِبٌ. b3: Also Whatever is alone, solitary, or apart from others. (TA.) b4: And (assumed tropical:) A man having no wife; (Ks, S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ عَازِبٌ, (Msb, * TA,) which is the original; (Msb;) and ↓ عَزِيبٌ, and ↓ مِعْزَابَةٌ [which see below]; (K;) but not ↓ أَعْزَابُ, (Mgh, O, Msb, K,) this being disallowed by AHát, (O, Msb,) and others; (TA;) or it is rare; (K;) but it occurs in a trad.; (Mgh, O;) and some allow it: (O, Msb:) the pl. of the first is أَعْزَابٌ, (O, K,) or عُزَّابٌ, (S, * Msb,) which is thus because the original form of the sing. is considered as being ↓ عَازِبٌ, this pl. being like كُفَّارٌ as pl. of كَافِرٌ, (Msb,) or عَزَبٌ has both of these pls., (O,) or عُزَّابٌ is pl. of ↓ عَازِبٌ, (TA,) and is applied to men and to (assumed tropical:) women as meaning having no spouses: (S, TA:) عَزَبَةٌ is applied to (assumed tropical:) a woman [as meaning having no husband], (Ks, S, O, Msb, K,) and (O, Msb, K) so عَزَبٌ; (Zj, Kz, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) and if أَعْزَبُ be applied to a man, ↓ عَزْبَآءُ, may by rule be applied to a woman; and the pl. of عَزَبَةٌ is عَزَبَاتٌ: (Msb:) or, accord. to Zj, عَزَبَةٌ is a mistake of Abu-l-'Abbás [i. e. Th], and عَزَبٌ is used as an epithet of a man and of a woman, like as is خَصْمٌ, and does not assume a dual form nor a pl. nor a fem. form, because it is originally an inf. n.; MF, however, denies that we have any authority for calling عَزَبٌ an inf. n.: he considers it to be a simple epithet, like حَسَنٌ &c.; and if used in the fem. sense without the termination ة otherwise than by poetic license, to be an anomalous epithet, like عَانِسٌ, which is applied alike to a man and to a woman: the phrase رَجُلَانِ عَزَبَانِ is also mentioned: and the saying إِنَّهُ لَعَزَبٌ لَزَبٌ [in which the latter epithet is merely an imitative sequent corrobative of the former], and إِنَّهَا لَعَزَبَةٌ لَزَبَةٌ: and عَزَبٌ is said to be [also] a quasi-pl. n. [of عَازِبٌ], like as خَدَمٌ is of خَادِمٌ. (TA.) عُزْبَةٌ and ↓ عُزُوبَةٌ The state of having no wife or husband; celibacy. (S, K. [Each said in the S and K to be a simple subst.: but see 1, near the end.]) عَزِيبٌ A man who has gone away to a distance (تَعَزَّبَ, as in some copies of the K), or who goes away to a distance (يَعْزُبُ, as in other copies of the K), from his family and his cattle, or camels &c. (K, TA.) b2: And Cattle, or camels &c., at a distance from the tribe: heard by Az in this sense from the Arabs: (TA:) or a herd of camels, and the like of sheep or goats, that go away to a distance from their owners in the pasturage: (K, TA:) and إِبِلٌ عَزِيبٌ camels that do not return in the evening to the tribe: عَزِيبٌ thus used is pl. (or a quasi-pl. n., TA) of ↓ عَازِبٌ, like as غَزِىٌّ is of غَازٍ. (S, K, TA.) b3: See also عَازِبٌ b4: And see عَزَبٌ, near the middle.

عَزُوبَةٌ A land in which one has to go far for pasturage; (O, K;) in which the pasturage is little: (TA:) the ة is to render the signification intensive. (O.) عُزُوبَةٌ: see عُزْبَةٌ.

عَازِبٌ Distant, or remote: (Msb, TA:) applied in this sense to herbage: (S, K:) or, applied to herbage, such as has not been depastured at all, nor trodden: and, accord. to the A, only such as is in a desert in which is no seed-produce: (TA:) and it is likewise applied to meadows (رَوْضٌ) [app. as meaning distant, or remote]; as also ↓ عَزِيبٌ. (A, TA.) In the following saying, وَصَدْرٍ أَرَاحَ اللَّيْلُ عَازِبَ هَمِّهِ تَضَاعَفَ فِيهِ الحُزْنُ مِنْ كُلِّ جَانِبِ (tropical:) [In many a bosom whose remote (or long-past) anxiety night has brought back, grief has multiplied from every quarter], it is used metaphorically. (A.) And [in like manner,] in a trad. of 'Átikeh, قَهُنَّ هَوَآءٌ وَالحُلُومُ عَوَازِبُ means (assumed tropical:) And they are devoid of reason, the intel-lects [being] far away: عَوَازِبُ here being pl. of عَازِبٌ. (L, TA.) And [in a similar manner,] عَوَازِبُ الأَطْهَارِ [in which عَوَازِبُ is pl. of عَازِبَةٌ] is applied as an epithet to women whose husbands are absent: (S and O and TA, from a verse of En-Ná- bighah Edh-Dhubyánee: [for the lit. meaning, see 1, latter half:]) b2: [for] عَازِبٌ signifies also Absent; and concealed. (Msb.) b3: It is also applied to sheep or goats, (شَآءٌ, O, TA, and غَنَمٌ, O,) and to camels, (إِبِلٌ, O,) meaning Remote in the pasturage, (O, TA,) that do not return in the evening, (O,) or that do not repair to the place of alighting and abode [of their owners] in the night: (TA:) and [in like manner] ↓ عَزَبٌ is applied to cattle, or camels &c., (مَالٌ, A, O, TA,) meaning that go away to a distance from their owners. (O.) See also عَزِيبٌ [which, thus applied, is a quasi-pl. n. of عَازِبٌ]. And عَازِبَةٌ is likewise applied to camels (O, K) as meaning That go far away to pasture: (O, K: *) so in the prov. إِنَّمَا اشْتَرَيْتُ الغَنَمَ حِذَارَ العَازِبَةِ [I only bought the sheep, or goats, in fear of loosing those that go far away to pasture]: said by a man who had camels, and sold them, and bought sheep, or goats, lest they [the camels] should go far away to pasture; and his sheep, or goats, did so: (O, K:) it is applied to the case of him who acts with gentleness [or precaution] in the easiest of affairs, and has unexpected difficulty, or trouble, inseparable from him. (O.) b4: See also عَزَبٌ, in three places. b5: And see مُعَزِّبَةٌ.

عَوْزَبٌ An old woman: (O, K:) so called because of the long period that has elapsed since her marriage. (TA.) أَعْزَبُ; and the fem. عَزْبَآءُ: see عَزَبٌ.

مُعْزِبٌ One who goes away from his family with his camels. (Az, TA.) [See also عَزَبٌ and عَزِيبٌ

&c.] b2: And Seeking distant herbage, such as is termed عَازِبٌ. (TA.) b3: And One whose camels go away to a distance in the pasturage, not to return in the evening. (S, TA.) مِعْزَبَةٌ A female slave: (O, K:) or, accord. to Th, applied only to a woman that has not a husband: (TA:) pl. مَعَازِبُ, for which مَعَازِيبُ occurs in a verse of Aboo-Khirásh El-Hudhalee. (O.) b2: See also مُعَزِّبَةٌ.

مُعَزَّبٌ A herd of pasturing camels taken to pasture at a distance (عُزِّبَ بِهِ) from the place of abode. (S, O, K. *) مُعَزِّبَةٌ (A, O, K) and ↓ مِعْزَبَةٌ and ↓ عَازِبَةٌ (K) (tropical:) A man's wife, (A, O, K,) to whom he resorts, and who undertakes the preparing of his food and the taking care of his implements, utensils, accoutrements, or furniture. (O.) مِعْزَابٌ: see what follows, in two places.

مِعْزَابَةٌ A man who goes away to a distance with his cattle, or camels &c., (S, A, O, K,) from others, in the pasturage; (S, O;) as also ↓ مِعْزَابٌ: (A, O, K:) accord. to Az, the former is the only epithet of the measure مِفْعَالَةٌ, except مِجْذَامَةٌ, which is sometimes used; [but in the TA, مِطْرَابَةٌ and مِطْوَاعَةٌ and مِقْدَامَةٌ also are mentioned;] the ة in معزابة, he says, is added to give intensiveness to the signification, and to imply praise; the meaning being, in his opinion, a man who frequently betakes himself, with his cattle, or camels &c., pasturing at a distance from others, to the places where rain has fallen, and to the uncropped herbage produced thereby; and he adds that the ة is affixed to a masc. epithet to imply praise or blame when intensiveness is meant. (TA.) The two epithets above are also expl. as applied to a man who pastures his camels at a distance from the abode of the tribe, not repairing to them to rest. (TA.) [See also عَزَبٌ &c.] b2: Also, (S, O, K, TA,) or ↓ مِعْزَابٌ, (A, TA,) (tropical:) A man who has been long without a wife, (S, A, O, K, TA,) so that he has no need of one. (TA.) b3: See also عَزَبٌ

علث

1 عَلَثَهُ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. عَلْثٌ, (S, O,) to which غَلْثٌ is like in its meanings (K and TA in art. غلث) for the most part, (TA in that art.,) He mixed it; (S, * O, * K, TA;) as also ↓ علّثهُ, inf. n. تَعْلِيثٌ; and ↓ اعتلثهُ. (TA.) You say, عَلَثْتُ البُرَّ بِالشَّعِيرِ, aor. as above, I mixed the wheat with the barley.

A2: عَلَثَ السِّقَآءَ He tanned the [skin called] سقاء with the أرْطَى [q. v.], (K,) or with any of the trees of the kind called عَلَث [q. v.]: accord. to AHn, it is with غ [i. e. غَلَثَ]. (TA.) [But مَغْلُوثٌ, with غ, is expl. on the authority of ISk, as meaning, applied to a سقاء, “ Tanned with dry, or with unripe, dates. ”]

A3: عَلَثَ, (S, O, K, TA,) [or, perhaps, عَلِثَ, like غَلِثَ,] as also ↓ اعتلث, (TA,) said of a زَنْد [or piece of stick, or wood, for producing fire], It failed to produce fire, (S, O, K, TA,) and was difficult to use: and the subst. is ↓ عُلَاثٌ [app. meaning The quality of failing to produce fire, &c.]. (L, TA.) A4: عَلَثٌ The fighting vehemently, and cleaving to fight: (S, O, K:) and so غَلَثٌ. (S, O.) One says, عَلِثَ القَوْمُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. عَلَثٌ, The people, or party, fought one another [or did so vehemently and perseveringly]: and عَلِثَ بَعْضُ القَوْمِ بِبَعْضٍ [One portion of the people, or party, fought another portion vehemently and perseveringly]. (TA.) And عَلِثَ الذِّئْبُ بِالغَنَمِ The wolf kept to worrying the sheep or goats. (L. [And so غَلِثَ.]) 2 عَلَّثَ see 1, first sentence. b2: [The inf. n.] تَعْلِيثٌ also signifies Confusion of mind: or, as some say, the beginning of pain. (TA. [See also 2 in art. غلث; and see مُغَلِّثٌ, with غ.]) 4 أَعْلَثَ see 8.5 تعلّث He, or it, clung, clave, or held fast, (O, K, TA,) بِهِ to it [or him]. (TK. [See also 5 in art. غلث.]) A2: Also He made, or did, [a thing] faultily, or unsoundly. (O, K.) [Accord. to the TK, one says, تعلّث السَّهْمَ, meaning He made the arrow faultily, or unsoundly: but this is perhaps a mistake: see 8.] b2: And i. q. تَمَحَّلَ: (K:) Fr says, تَعَلَّثْتُ لَهُ الذُّنُوبَ is like تَمَحَّلْتُ [app. meaning I laboured, and exercised art or management, in seeking to do to him misdeeds: see art. محل]. (O.) 8 إِعْتَلَثَ see 1, first sentence. You say, اعتلث العُلَاثَةَ He (a man) mixed the [mess called] عُلَاثَة [q. v.]. (As, O.) b2: And اعتلث زَنْدًا He took a زَنْد [or piece of stick, or wood, for producing fire] from trees, without knowing whether or not it would produce fire: (S, O, K:) or he acted unskilfully in selecting a زند: (A:) or he took, or made, for himself a زند from any tree that he found in his way: and so اغتلث, with غ. (AHn, TA.) and one says, فُلَانٌ يَعْتَلِثُ الزِّنَادَ meaning (assumed tropical:) Such a one does not select his مَنْكِح [or wife]: (S, A, * O, K: *) in which sense also يغتلث is a dial. var.: (TA:) and in like manner one says اعتلث [alone], and ↓ أَعْلَثَ. (So in a copy of the A. [But I doubt the correctness of the latter verb; and the more so as it is not quite clear whether it be meant to be expl. as having this meaning, or as meaning It (a زَنْد) failed to produce fire, and therefore, perhaps, a mistranscription for عَلَثَ.]) b3: and اعتلث السَّهْمَ He took [or made] the arrow from any of the trees that were before him. (L.) and He made the arrow faultily, or unsoundly. (L, TA. [See also 5.]) A2: See also 1, latter half.

[See also أَغْلَاثٌ, which is somewhat similarly explained.]) b4: And A زَنْد [or piece of stick, or wood, for producing fire] that has not produced fire. (A.) And الأَعْلَاثُ [or أَعْلَاثُ الشَّجَرِ] signifies [also] The promiscuous pieces of trees that one uses for producing fire, of the [trees called] مَرْخ, and of such as are dried up. (S, O, K.) b5: And أَعْلَاثُ الزَّادِ Such things as are eaten without being selected, of travelling-provisions. (O, K.) عَلِثٌ One whose origin is referred to a person who is not his father [or forefather], (O, K, TA,) his lineage being confused; (TA;) as also ↓ مُعْتَلِثٌ. (O, K.) A2: Also Firm, or constant, in fight. (TA.) [رَجُلٌ عَلِثٌ is expl. in the O by the words مُلَازِمٌ لِمَنْ يُطَالِبُ, and in like manner العَلِثُ is expl. in the K; app. meaning A man cleaving, or holding fast, applied to such as is seeking, or demanding, blood-revenge, or a debt or the like; agreeably with what here immediately precedes, and with the explanation in the L, which is, مُلَازِمٌ أَىْ طَالِبٌ فِى قِتَالٍ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ cleaving, or holding fast, i. e. seeking, or demanding, in fight or in some other case. See عَلِثَ, of which عَلِثٌ is the part. n.: and see also غَلثٌ.]

عُلْثَةٌ, with damm, (K, but written in the O عَلْثَة,) i. q. عُلْقَةٌ [most probably, I think, in the sense in which this is used in the phrase لِى فِى

هٰذَا المَالِ عُلْقَةٌ (q. v.), from تَعَلَّثَ in the first of the senses assigned to it above, syn. with تَعَلَّقِ]. (O, K.) عَلْثَى Food having poison mixed with it, by which vultures are killed: mentioned by Kr: and غَلْثَى is a dial. var. thereof. (TA.) عُلَاثٌ: see عُلَاثَةٌ: A2: and see also, 1, latter half.

سُلْت. (TA, from a trad.) b2: And Wheat mixed with barley; (Az, TA;) as also ↓ عَلَثٌ and ↓ عَلِيثَةٌ: or, accord. to Abu-l-Jarráh, barley and wheat mixed together for sowing and then reaped together.

مُعْتَلِثٌ: see عَلِثٌ: b2: and see the next preceding paragraph. b3: Also, (O, * L, [thus in the latter, with kesr to the ل, but in the former without any vowel-sign to that letter, perhaps from اِعْتَلَثَ الزَّنْدُ, but more probably ↓ مُعْتَلَثٌ, from اعتلث السَّهْمَ,]) An arrow in which is no good. (O, L.)

A2: عَمَدَ لَهُ, (S, A, O, L, Msb,) and عَمَدَ إِلَيْهِ, (L, Msb,) and عَمَدَهُ, (L, K,) aor. ـِ [or عَمِدَ and عَمُدَ, (Har p. 299,)] inf. n. عَمْدٌ (S, O, L, Msb) and عَمَدٌ and عِمَادٌ and عُمْدَةٌ (Mtr, TA) and عُمُودٌ (Nawádir el-Aaráb, TA) and مَعْمَدٌ; (Ibn-'Arafeh, TA;) and ↓ تعمّدهُ, (L, Msb, K,) and لَهُ ↓ تعمّد; (S, L;) and ↓ اعتمدهُ; (L, TA;) He intended it, or purposed it; did it intentionally, or purposely; the inf. n. signifying the contr. of خَطَأٌ: (Az, S, L, TA:) he directed himself, or his course or aim, to it, or towards it; made for it, or towards it; made it his object; aimed at it; sought, or endeavoured, after it; or tended, repaired, or betook himself, to it, or towards it; syn. قَصَدَهُ; (L, K;) or قَصَدَ لَهُ, (S, A, O,) or إِلَيْهِ.

(A.) b2: And [hence] one says, فَعَلْتُهُ عَمْدًا عَلَى عَيْنٍ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and عَمْدَ عَيْنٍ, (S, A, O, Msb, K,) I did it seriously, or in earnest, and with certain knowledge, or assurance. (S, A, O, Msb, K. [See also عَيْنٌ.]) When a man sees a bodily form and imagines it to be an object of the chase and therefore shoots at it, he cannot use this phrase, for he only aims at what is an object of the chase in his imagination: so says Sgh. (Msb.) A3: عَمَدَهُ, (S, O, L, K,) aor. ـِ (L,) said of disease, (S, O, L,) It pressed heavily upon him, or oppressed him; (S, O, L, K;) on the authority of IAar: (TA:) and so said of straitness, or confinement, or imprisonment, and captivity; (O;) and it caused him to fall; (O, K;) in this sense in like manner said of confinement, &c.: (O:) also, (O, K,) said of a disease, (O,) it pained him.

(L.) And عَمِدَتِ الأَرْضُ, inf. n. as above, The land became moistened by the rain's sinking into the earth so that when a portion of it was grasped in the hand it became compacted by reason of its moisture.

(L.) And عَمِدَتْ أَلْيَتَاهُ مِنَ الرُّكُوبِ His buttocks became swollen, and quivered, or throbbed, in consequence of [long and hard] riding. (En-Nadr, O, K.)

One says, عَمِدَ عَلَيْهِ He was angry with him. (T, L.) b5: [And He wondered.] One says, أَنَا أَعْمَدُ مِنْهُ I wonder at him, or it: (S, O, L, K:) or, as some say, I am angry at him, or it: and some say that it means I lament at, or complain of, him, or it. (L.) أَعْمَدُ مِنْ سَيِّدٍ قَتَلَهُ قَوْمُهُ (S, O, L) i. e. Do I wonder at a chief whom his [own] people have slain? (L) was said by Aboo-Jahl (S, O, L) when he lay prostrated at Bedr; meaning, hath anything more happened than the slaughter of a chief by his [own] people? this is not a disgrace [to him]: he meant thereby that the destruction that befell him was a light matter to him: (A'Obeyd, L:) the saying is interrogative; (Sh, L;) أَعْمَدُ being app. contracted from أَأَعْمَدُ, by the suppression of one of the two hemzehs. (Az, L.) And أَعْمَدُ مِنْ كَيْلٍ مُحِّقَ, as related by A'Obeyd, [and thus in the O, in two copies of the S written مُحِقّ, and in a third copy omitted,] or مُحِقَ, without teshdeed, as seen by Az written in an old book, [i. e. Do I wonder at a measure incompletely filled?] is a saying of the Arabs, expl. in the book above alluded to, and, Az thinks, correctly, as meaning is it anything more than a measure incompletely filled? [and in a similar manner, but not so fully, expl. in two copies of the S and in the O:] or, accord. to IB, is it anything more than the fact of my measure's being incompletely filled? (L:) thus expl. also by ISk: and in a similar manner the saying of Aboo-Jahl. (From a marginal note in one of my copies of the S.) b6: عَمِدَ بِهِ means He kept, or clave, to it; (Ibn-Buzurj, O, K;) namely, a thing.

(TA.) 5 تَعَمَّدَ see 1, former half, in five places.7 انعمد It became stayed, propped up, or supported; (S, O, L, K;) said of a wall, (L,) or other thing. (S, O, L.) 8 اِعْتَمَدْتُ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ I leaned, reclined, bore, or rested, upon the thing; stayed, propped, or supported, myself upon it. (S, O, L, Msb.) b2: and [hence] اعتمدت عَلَيْهِ فِى كَذَا (assumed tropical:) I relied upon him in such a thing, or case; (S, O, L;) as also اِعْتَمَدْتُهُ. (L.) And اعتمدت عَلَى الكِتَابِ [and اعتمدت الكِتَابَ, and perhaps بِالكِتَابِ (see De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, sec. ed., i. 315),] (tropical:) I relied upon the book, and held to it: a metaphorical phrase, from the first above. (Msb.) b3: [Hence also the phrase, used by grammarians, يَعْتَمِدُ عَلَى مَا قَبْلَهُ (assumed tropical:) It is syntactically dependent upon what is before it; as, for instance, an enunciative upon its inchoative, an epithet upon the subst. which it qualifies, and an objective complement of a verb upon its verb. b4: اعتمد المَطَرُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ, a phrase occurring in the K in art. نكح, app. meansThe rain rested upon the ground so as to soak into it: see عَمِدَ.] b5: اعتمد عَلَى السَّيْرِ He went, or journeyed, gently; went a gentle pace. (L in art. هود.) And اعتمد لَيْلَتَهُ He rode on journeying during his night. (A, O, K.) A2: See also 1, former half, in three places. b2: [اعتمدهُ بِكَذَا means قَصَدَهُ بِكَذَا i. e.

(B, TA.) Hence the phrase in the Kur [xviii. 20] أَعْثَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ; (S, Ta;) in which غَيْرَهُمْ, the objective complement, is suppressed. (TA.) And اعثرهُ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ (tropical:) He guided him, or showed him the way, to his companions. (A.) b4: اعثر جَدَّهُ, and ↓ عثّرهُ, (assumed tropical:) He [i. e. God] made his fortune, or good fortune, to fall. (K. [See عَثَرَ جَدُّهُ.]) A2: See also 1, latter half.5 تَعَثَّرَ see 1, in four places. Q. Q. 1 عَثْيَرَ القَوْمُ [from عِثْيَرٌ] The people, or party, raised the dust, or earth, or bits of dry clay or compact earth, (termed عِثْيَر,) with the extremities of their toes, in walking. (Kh, Har p. 488.) A2: عَيْثَرَ الطَّيْرَ [from عَيْثَرٌ] He saw, or beheld, the birds: or he saw that the birds ran: (O:) or he saw the birds running, and augured from them (فَزَجَرَهَا). (K. [But this addition, فزجرها, is evidently taken from an explanation of the words here following.]) A poet says, لَقَدْ عَيْثَرْتَ طَيْرَكَ لَوْ تَعِيفُ [i. e. Thou sawest, or beheldest, thy birds; &c.: would that thou wouldst augur from them, and take warning]. (O.) And you say, عَيْثَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ I saw, or beheld, the thing; (L, TA;) and individuated it. (TA.) عَثْرٌ: see عَثَرِىٌّ.

عُثْرٌ A lie; or falsehood; (K;) as also ↓ عَثَرٌ. (IAar, K.) A2: Also The Eagle: (K:) a meaning also assigned in the K, in art. عبر, but erroneously, to عُبْرٌ. (TA.) عَثَرٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

عَثْرَةٌ A stumble, or trip, (Msb, TA,) in walking, or going along: pl. عَثَرَاتٌ. (TA.) b2: and [hence,] (tropical:) A slip, lapse, fault, wrong action, or mistake; (S, O, Msb, TA;) so called as being a fall into sin or crime. (Msb.) One says, أَقَالَ اللّٰهُ عَثْرَتَكَ (tropical:) [May God cancel thy slip, lapse, fault, &c.]. (A.) And it is said in a trad., لَا حَلِيمَ إِلَّا ذُو عَثْرَةٍ i. e. (tropical:) There is no one to be characterized as of a forbearing disposition except he be one who has committed a slip, and becomes admonished thereby, distinguishing the occasions of error so as to avoid them [and to make allowance for others who have done the like]. (TA.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) War, or fight, against unbelievers or others; because war, or fight, is an occasion of frequent stumbling, or tripping: so in a trad., in which it is said, لَا تَبْدَأْهُمْ بِالعَثْرَةِ (assumed tropical:) [Begin not ye with them by war]; meaning invite ye them first to El-Islám or to the payment of the poll-tax; and if they assent not, then have recourse to war. (TA.) عَثِرَةٌ Land (أَرْض) without herbage, being high, and overspread with عِثْيَر, i. e. dust: (O, TA:) and said to occur in a trad. as the name of a particular land. (O, K, * TA.) عَثَرِىٌّ i. q. عِذْىٌ, (Az, S, O, Msb, TA,) as some say; (Msb;) i. e., (Az, S, O, TA,) Such as is watered by the rain (Az, S, K, TA) alone, (S,) of palm-trees, (Az, O, TA,) or of seed-produce: (S:) or such as is watered by water running upon the surface of the ground, (O, Msb,) of palmtrees: (Msb:) or seed-produce that is watered by torrents and by rain, the water being made to flow thereto in channels: (TA:) and ↓ عَثْرٌ signifies the same: (K, TA:) or, accord. to IAth, palm-trees (نَخِيل) that imbibe with their roots of the rain-water that collects in a part hollowed out in the ground: (TA:) the former term is said to be thus applied because what is so called is as though it stumbled upon water without any labour of its owner; regarding it as an irregular rel. n. from العَثْرُ: (O, * TA:) but Abu-l-'Abbás [i. e. Th] says that, thus applied, it is with teshdeed to the ث [i. e. عَثَّرِىٌّ], though not in the sense here following. (TA.) b2: Also (tropical:) A man who does not occupy himself in seeking the things of the present world nor those of the world to come: (O, K, TA:) occurring in a trad., in which such is said to be the most hateful of mankind to God: (O, TA:) in this sense, sometimes written with teshdeed to the ث, (K, TA,) and thus it is accord. to Sh (O, TA) and IAar; (TA;) but correctly without teshdeed: (Th, K, TA:) and said by some to be from عَثَرِىٌّ applied to palm-trees. (O, * TA.) One says also, جَآءَ فُلَانٌ عَثَرِيًّا, meaning (tropical:) Such a one came unoccupied. (O, TA.) عَثَارٌ or عِثَارٌ: see عَاثُورٌ, in six places: A2: and for عِثَارٌ see also عِثْيَرٌ.

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

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

عِثْيَرَةٌ, and its pl. عِثْيَرَاتٌ: see عِثْيَرٌ. b2: One says also أَرْضٌ عِثْيَرَةٌ, meaning A land in which is much dust. (TA.) عَاثِرٌ [Stumbling, or tripping; &c. b2: And] (assumed tropical:) A liar. (TA.) b3: And one says also جَدٌّ عَاثِرٌ (assumed tropical:) [Fortune, or good fortune, in a falling state: (see 1, near the end:)] pl. عَوَاثِرُ: (TA:) b4: or this may be pl of عَاثِرٌ signifying The snare of a sportsman: b5: or it may be pl. of ↓ عَاثِرَةٌ signifying (assumed tropical:) An accident that destroys, or causes to be overcome, him whom it befalls: (O:) b6: or it may be pl. of عَاثُورٌ [q. v.], the ى being suppressed, (O, TA,) by poetic license, in a verse in which it occurs. (TA.) عَيْثَرٌ The substance of a thing; its bodily, or corporeal, form; syn. عَيْنٌ and شَخْصٌ. (T, O, L, K, TA. [In this sense, it is said in the TA to be erroneously written in all the copies of the K عَثْيَر, with the ث before the ى; but I find it written عَيْثَر in my MS. copy of the K and also in the CK.]) See also عِثْيَرٌ, in five places.

عَاثِرَةٌ: see عَاثِرٌ.

عَاثُورٌ A pit dug for a lion or other [animal], (S, A, O,) that he may fall into it, (A,) in order that he may be taken: (S, O:) this is the primary signification: (A:) or a thing that is prepared for one to fall into it: (K:) or, as also عثار [i. e. ↓ عَثَارٌ or ↓ عِثَارٌ (see what follows)], a thing by which one is made to stumble and fall; expl. by بِهِ ↓ مَا عُثِرَ: (TA:) the pl. is عَوَاثِيرُ; whence, perhaps, عَوَاثِرُ, by suppression of the ى. (O, TA. [See عَاثرٌ.]) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) A place of perdition: (TA voce حَاجُورٌ:) or (tropical:) a cause, or place, of perdition or of death: (A, K:) applied to a land. (K.) You say, وَقَعَ فِى عَاثُورٍ (tropical:) He fell into a cause, or place, of perdition or of death. (A, TA.) And فُلَانٌ يَقِى صَاحِبَهُ العَوَاثِرَ (tropical:) [Such a one preserves his companion from the causes, or places, of perdition or of death]. (A.) And it is said in a trad., إِنَّ قُرَيْشًا أَهْلُ أَمَانَةٍ مَنْ بَغَاهَا العَوَاثِيرَ كَبَّهُ اللّٰهُ لِمَنْخِرَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) [Verily the tribe of Kureysh are people of fidelity: whoso seeks for them the causes, or places, of perdition or of death, may God lay him prostrate upon his nostrils]: or, accord. to one relation, عَوَاثِرَ. (O, TA.) b3: And [hence,] (tropical:) Difficulty, or distress; as also عَاثُورُ شَرٍّ: (S, O:) and evil; (K, TA;) like عَاذُورٌ, which is a dial. var. thereof, or an instance of mispronunciation; (S and O in art. عذر;) as also ↓ عَثَارٌ, (accord. to some copies of the K,) or ↓ عِثَارٌ: (thus in other copies of the K and in the TA [in the latter of which it is said to be with kesr; and this I think to be the more probably correct; originally an inf. n.]:) and شَرٍّ ↓ عِثَارُ is said by Fr to signify the same as عَاثُورُ شَرٍّ. (TA.) You say, لَقِيتُ مِنْهُ عَاثُورًا, (As, S, O, TA,) and ↓ عِثَارًا, (TA,) (tropical:) I experienced from him, or it, difficulty, or distress. (As, S, O, TA.) And وَقَعُوا فِى عَاثُورِ شَرٍّ, (As, S, O, TA,) and عَافُورِ شَرٍّ, (S, O,) (tropical:) They fell into difficulty, or distress: (As, S, O:) or into a confusion of evil and difficulty or distress. (TA.) It is the opinion of Yaakoob that the ف in عَافُور is a substitute for the ث in عَاثُور: but Az observes that this is not necessarily the case, as the meaning of difficulty is implied in the root عفر. (TA.) b4: It is said to signify also A kind of snare (مِصْيَدَة) made of bark. (O.) b5: And A channel that is dug for the purpose of irrigating thereby a palm-tree such as is termed بَعْلٌ. (O.) b6: And A well. (K.) A2: And it may also be used as an epithet [app. meaning Perilous, or destructive]. (ISd, TA.)
