حَوْزٌ inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. b2: فِى حَوْزِهِ: see حَوْزَةٌ.

(TA.) One says to a man, when he holds back respecting an affair, دَعْنِى مِنْ حَوْزِكَ وَطَلَقِكَ (assumed tropical:) [Let me alone and cease from this and that discursion of thine]. (TA.)

(L, TA.) You say also, صَارَفِى حَوْزَتِهِ, and ↓ فِى حَوْزِهِ, [and ↓ فى حَيِّزِهِ,] It became in his possession, or occupation. (L, TA.)

I'Ab used to say to his companions, أَحْمِضُوا (tropical:) [Launch ye forth, or enter upon, cheering discourse]; (A, TA;) whereupon they would begin to recite poetry, and to relate the memorable conflicts of the Arabs; (A;) because they then entered into traditions and stories of the Arabs, being weary of the interpretation of the Kur-án, [like camels betaking themselves to the pasture termed حَيْض when weary of that termed خُلَّة.] (TA.) [and in like manner,] إِحْمَاضٌ also means (assumed tropical:) The changing from seriousness to jesting or joking. (Har p. 10.) b5: See also 2. [And see 5.]

(TA.) 5 تحمّض [app. signifies, in its primary acceptation, He (a camel) betook himself to the pasture termed حَمْض after eating for a time of that termed خُلَّة. (See also 1 and 4 and 2.) b2: and hence,] (tropical:) He shifted from one thing to another thing. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] one says to a man when he comes threatening, أَنْتَ مُخْتَلَّ فَتَحَمَّضْ (tropical:) [Thou art disordered in temper, therefore sooth thyself]: (S, A:) from خُلَّةٌ and حَمْضٌ.

حَمْضٌ [a coll. gen. n.] A kind of plant in which is saltness, (A, Msb,) which camels eat as though it were fruit, and after which they drink: (A:) other plants are termed خُلَّة: (Msb:) or what is salt and bitter, of plants; (S, K;) such as the رِمْث and the أَثْل and the طَرْفَآء and the like: (S:) what is sweet is called خُلَّة: (S, K:) or any kind of plant that is salt, or sour, rising upon [several] stems, and having no [single] أَصْل [or stock]: (M [as cited in the L, but I doubt whether the passage be correctly transcribed]:) or any salt, or sour, kind of trees; having a juicy and quivering leaf, which, when squeezed, bursts forth with water; and having a pungent, or strong, odour; that cleanses the garment and the hand when they are washed with it; such as the نَجِيل and the خذْرَاف and the إِخْرِيط and the رِمْث and the قِضَة and the قُلَّام and the هَرْم and the حُرْض and the رُغل and the طَرْفَآء and the like: (Lh:) or any plant that does not dry up in the رَبِيع [or spring], but endures the hot season, having in it saltness; when camels eat it, they drink upon it; and when they do not find it, they become thin and weak: (Lth, T:) the Arabs say that the خُلَّة is the bread of camels, and the حَمْض is their fruit, (S, A, Msb, K, *) or, as some say, their flesh-meat; (S;) or their خَبِيص: (TA in art. خل:) and they say that flesh-meat is the حَمْض of men: (TA:) the n. un. is with ة: (Mgh:) and the pl. is حُمُوضٌ. (S, K.) [In Isaiah xxx. 24, the word rendered “ clean ”

in our authorized version is thought by some to mean “ salt ” or “ sour. ”] b2: Hence the saying, جَاؤُوا مُخِلِّينَ فَلَاقَوْا حَمْضَا (tropical:) They came eagerly desiring evil, or mischief, and found him who cured them of that which affected them: which is like the saying of Ru-beh, وَنُورِدُ المُسْتَوْرِدِينَ حَمْضَا (tropical:) And him who cometh to us seeking to do evil, or mischief, we cure of his disease: for camels, when they are satiated with خُلَّة, eagerly desire حَمْض [to cure them of the effect of the former]. (TA. [See also خُلِّىٌّ, in art. خل.]) b3: Hence, also, by way of comparison, حَمْض is applied to (tropical:) Evil, and war: and خُلَّة, to ease, or repose; freedom from trouble or inconvenience, and toil or fatigue; or tranquillity; and ampleness of circumstances: (T and TA in art. خل:) and the former, to death: and the latter, to life. (Ham p. 315.) b4: فُؤَادٌ حَمْضٌ and نَفْسٌ حَمْضةٌ mean (assumed tropical:) A mind that takes fright at a thing, and shrinks from it, at first hearing it. (TA.) حَمْضَةٌ (assumed tropical:) Eager desire for a thing. (S, K.) It is said in a trad., الأُذُنُ مَجَّاجَةٌ وَلِلنَّفْسِ حَمْضةٌ; (S, TA;) and in another, لِلْأُذُنِ مَجَّةٌ وللنفس حمضة; (TA;) [both meaning the same;] (assumed tropical:) The ear is wont to reject what it hears, not retaining it, when one is exhorted to do a thing, or forbidden to do it, while the mind has eager desire to hear: (IAth:) or the ear retains not all that that it hears, while having eager desire for what it deems elegant, of extraordinary matters of discourse and speech. (Az.) This usage of the word is taken from the eager desire of camels for حَمْض when they have become weary of خُلَّة. (S.) بَعِيرٌ حَمْضِىٌّ, and إِبِلٌ حَمْضِيَّةٌ and حَمَضِيَّةٌ: see حَامِضٌ: b2: and أَرْضٌ حَمْضِيَّةٌ: see حَمِيضةٌ.

حُمُوضةٌ [Acidity; sourness; the quality of being sharp or biting to the taste; pungency;] the taste of that which is termed حَامِض. (S, K.) [See 1.] الحُمُوضةُ is also explained as signifying That which bites the tongue; as the taste of vinegar, and of milk such as is termed حَازِر: which is extr., [if it be meant thereby that the word is thus used as an epithet to qualify a subst., or as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant, but I rather think that it is a loose way of explaining it as an inf. n. used as a simple subst.,] for [the measure] فُعُولَةٌ does not belong [save] to inf. ns. (TA: [in which the word إِلَّا is evidently omitted by an oversight in transcription, and therefore has been supplied by me in rendering the passage.]) أَرْضٌ حَمِيضَةٌ Land abounding with حَمْض; (ISh, K;) as also ↓ ارض مُحْمِضَةٌ; (S;) and ↓ ارض حَمْضِيَّةٌ: (TA:) pl. of the first, أَرَضُونَ حُمُضٌ, (as in some copies of the K,) or حُمْضٌ: (as in other copies of the same, and in the TA:) and حُمُوضٌ [which seems to be another pl. of the first of these epithets] is explained as signifying land possessing حَمْض. (TA.) حُمَّاضٌ [Sorrel; or particularly the rose-flowered sorrel; more commonly called in the present day حُمَّيْض;] a certain plant having a red flower; (S;) a herb, or leguminous plant, of the kind termed ذُكُور, having a produce, or fruit, red like blood; (Ham p. 823;) a certain herb (K, TA) growing in the mountains, of herbs of the [season called] رَبِيع, (TA,) the leaves of which are like those of the هِنْدِبَآء, (K, TA,) large and broad; (TA;) it is acid, (K, TA,) intensely so; its flower is red, and its leaves are green: (TA: [in which is here added ويتناوس فى ثمره مثل حبّ الرمّان, app. for وَيَتَنَوَّسُ الخ; meaning that it waves much to and fro when blown by the wind, and describing its fruit as containing what resemble the grains of the pomegranate:]) it is pleasant to the taste; (K, TA;) and is eaten by men, but in small quantity: AHn and Aboo-Ziyád say, it grows very tall, and has a wide leaf, and a red flower, which, when it is near to drying up, becomes white: and Aboo-Ziyád says, in our mountain-country it is abundant; and is of two species; one of these two is acid, [but] pleasant to the taste; (TA;) and one species thereof is bitter; (K, TA;) in the lower parts of each, when they are full grown, is a redness; and the seeds and leaves of the acid species are used medicinally: Az says, it is a wild herb, or leguminous plant, that grows in the days of the [season called] رَبِيع, in the channels of water, and has a red flower, and is of the herbs, or leguminous plants, which are termed ذُكُور: IB says, the places of its growth are the small channels of water, and the places to which valleys take their courses; and in it is acidity: sometimes, also, the people of settled habitations make it to grow in their gardens, and water it and sustain it so that it does not dry up in the time when the wild herbs, or leguminous plants, dry up: it is also said in the Minháj that it is both wild and growing in gardens; that the wild is called سلق, [but this name is commonly applied to bete,] and in all of this there is not acidity: the garden-kind resembles the هندباء, and in this is acidity, and an excessive viscous moisture: the best is the acid, gardenkind: here ends the quotation from the Minháj: (TA:) each species, (K, TA,) the bitter and the pleasant, or the garden-kind and the wild, (TA,) is good for thirst, and for inflammation arising from yellow bile; and strengthens the bowels; and allays heaving of the stomach, and hot palpitation, and tooth-ache; and is good for the black [or livid] jaundice; (K, * TA;) and, when cooked, and applied externally, for the leprosy; and for the ringworm (قُوَبَآء); and for glandular swellings in the neck, so much so that it is said to do good to him who has these even when hung upon the neck: with vinegar, also, it is good for the mange, or scab; and it is astringent; and puts a stop to malacia [so I render شَهْوَةالطِّين, lit. “ the longing for clay ”]: its seeds are cold in the first degree, and have an astringent property, particularly when fried: (TA:) they say that if these be hung, in a purse, upon a woman's left upper arm, she will not become pregnant as long as they remain upon her: (K, * TA:) they are also good for the sting of scorpions; and if some of the seeds be swallowed before the scorpion's stinging, its stinging will not hurt. (TA.) A2: Also What is in the interior of the [kind of citron called] أُتْرُجّ: (A, K:) n. un. with ة: (A:) it is cold and dry in the third degree; used as a liniment, it removes freckles and the like, and clears the complexion; and it suppresses (يَقْمَعُ) the yellow bile; and gives appetite for food; and is good for hot palpitation; and made into a beverage, it sweetens the odour of the mouth; and is good for looseness arising from yellow bile; and is suitable for those who are fevered. (TA.) [In the present day, in Egypt, this name is applied to A species of citron, itself, with a conical apex, and very acid pulp.]

(TA.) حَامِضٌ [Acid; sour; sharp or biting to the taste; pungent; having a taste like that of vinegar or like that of sour milk; see حُمُوضةٌ;] (S, Msb, K;) applied to milk (TA) and other things; (Msb;) and ↓ مُحَمِّضٌ signifies the same, applied to a grape. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] رَجُلٌ حَامِضُ الفُؤَادِ (tropical:) A man whose heart, or mind, is altered and bad, (O, K,) فِى الغَضَبِ in anger. (O.) And فُلَانٌ حَامِضُ الرِّئَتَيْنِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is in a loathing state of mind; syn. مُرُّ النَّفْسِ. (S.)

(AHn.) b3: It (leather) became red. (S, K.) [The inf. n. of the verb in this sense is not mentioned.]

A2: See also 2.2 حنّطهُ, inf. n. تَحْنِيطٌ (S, TA;) in the K, ↓ حَنَطَهُ, aor. ـُ which is a mistake; (TA;) He prepared him (a dead person [i. e. for burial]) [and also it (grave-clothing)] with حَنُوط [q. v.]; (S, K;) as also ↓ احنطهُ. (K.) And [hence,] ↓ أُحْنِطَ [lit. He was prepared for burial with حنوط, is used to signify] he died. (K.) 4 احنط: see 1, in five places.

(TA.) 10 استحنط [lit. He desired to be prepared for burial with حَنُوط: and hence meaning] he (a man, Fr) emboldened himself, or became emboldened, to encounter death, holding his life in light estimation. (Fr, K.) حِنْطَةٌ Wheat; and the grain of wheat; syn. بُرٌّ (S, Msb, K) and قَمْحٌ and طَعَامٌ; (Msb;) of the first three of which words, بُرٌّ is the most chaste; (S in art. بر;) the well-known grain called بُرٌّ: (TA:) chewed, and applied as a poultice, it is good for the bite of a dog: (K:) or, correctly, what is chewed thereof disperses humours; but for the bite of a dog, it is coarsely pounded, and put upon the bite; as is said by the author of the “ Minháj: ” and one of its wellknown properties is this; that when it is put upon a piece of heated iron, and powdered, and ringworms (قَوَابِىّ) are smeared with the moisture thereof, it removes them: (TA:) pl. حِنَطٌ. (S, K.) حِنْطِىٌّ An eater of much حِنْطَة [or wheat], in order that he may grow fat. (K.) b2: Accord. to Aboo-Nasr and Aboo-Sa'eed, (TA,) Inflated, or swollen; syn. مُنْتَفِخٌ.

(AHn.) Also, accord. to Sh, i. q. وَارِسٌ, in the phrase حَانِطُ الغَضَى [app. meaning What is putting forth its leaves, of trees of the kind called غَضًى]: but accord. to Ibn-'Abbád and the K, the fruit of the kind of tree called غَضًى. (TA.) b3: Also Red leather. (S, TA.) And أَحْمَرُ حَانِطٌ Intensely red: (IF, K:) because wheat (الحِنْطَةُ) is called الحَمْرَآءُ. (IF.) مُحْنِطٌ: see حَانِطٌ.

حتف

1 حَتَفَ, aor. ـِ is a verb mentioned by IKoot and IKtt and others, as derived from حَتْفٌ signifying “ death,” though J says that no verb is formed from this word; as IF and Meyd and Az also assert: (MF, TA:) and حُتُوفٌ is its inf. n., as well as pl. of حَتْفٌ: [accord. to SM, it is intrans., signifying He died; for he says,] hence the saying in the A, المَرْءُ يَسْعَى وَيَطُوفُ وَعَاقِبَتُهُ الحُتُوفُ [Man labours, and goes about: and his end is dying]. (TA.) [But see what follows.]

A2: IF says that no verb is formed from حَتْفٌ signifying “ death; ” and so, after him, J; and Az says that he had heard no such verb: but IKoot mentions حَتَفَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَتْفٌ, as signifying He, or it, killed him; or caused him to die. (Msb.) حَتْفٌ Death: (S, Msb, K, &c.:) pl. حُتُوفٌ. (S, K.) You say, مَاتَ حَتْفَ أَنْفِهِ, (A 'Obeyd, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and حَتْفَ فِيهِ, but this is rare, and حَتْفَ أَنْفَيْهِ, (K,) which may mean مَنْخِرَيْهِ, or it may mean أَنْفه وَفَمه, the انف being made predominant, (TA,) He died upon his bed; (A 'Obeyd, Mgh, Msb, K;) [a natural death;] respiring until he yielded his last breath; (Msb;) not from slaughter, nor beating, (A 'Obeyd, S, Msb, K,) nor drowning, nor burning, (A 'Obeyd, Sgh, Msb, K,) nor by a wild beast, &c.: (A 'Obeyd, TA:) the nose is particularized as meaning that the spirit passes forth from it with the breath; or because they imagined that the spirit of the sick man passes forth from his nose, and that of the wounded man from his wound; (IAth, K;) or because the spirit passes forth from the mouth and the nose, and the latter of these is made predominant: (O, TA:) and حتف is put in the accus. case in the manner of an inf. n. (TA.) This phrase was used in the time of paganism, by Es-Semow-al: (Msb, TA:) or, accord. to some, in the phrase attributed to him, the right reading is not مات حتف انفه, but مات فِى فِرَاشِهِ; and the former was first used by Mohammad. (Ham p. 52.) It is said of a human being: (S, Mgh:) and then of any animal when it dies without any accidental cause: (Mgh:) hence, of a fish that has died, and floats upon the water. (Msb, TA.) It is said in a trad. of 'Ámir Ibn-Fuheyreh, وَالمَرْءُ يَأْتِى حَتْفُهُ مِنْ فَوْقِهِ [And man, his death comes from above him]: meaning that his caution and his cowardice will not repel from him the decree of death when it befalls him: originally said by 'Amr Ibn-Mámeh. (L, TA.) A2: حَيَّةٌ حَتْفَةٌ [A dead serpent] is a phrase like اِمْرَأَةٌ عَدْلَةٌ: (Z, TA:) the latter word is here an epithet. (Z, K.)

[Beware ye] lest any one of you cast at, or shoot, the hare: because this animal is of evil omen. (TA. [But the reading there given is ايّاى: an evident mistranscription.]) Or حَذَفَهُ, inf. n. as above, signifies He struck, or he cast at, or shot, him, or it, from one side. (Lth, TA.) b4: [Hence,] حَذَفَ فُلَانًا بِجَائِزَةٍ (tropical:) He gave such a one a gift. (Z, K.) b5: And حَذَفَ بِهَا (assumed tropical:) He broke wind.

(A, TA.) تَحْذِيفُ الشَّعَرِ [or الرَّأْسِ] signifies The cutting of the hair so as to form a طُرَّة [q. v.], by taking from its sides so as to make it even [with the cut portion over the forehead]; (T, Mgh;) as is done by, or to, a girl: (Mgh:) or تحذيف الرأس is a custom of women, consisting in the removing of the hair from [the sides of] the head as far as a line upon the side of the face made by putting one end of a string, or thread, upon the top of the ear, and the other end upon the angle of the جَبِين [or part above the temple]: (Msb:) accord. to En-Nadr, the تحذيف of the طُرَّة is the making a [طرّة such as is termed] سُكَيْنِيَّة, [i. e., after the fashion of Sukeyneh the daughter of El-Hoseyn, as is shown in the S and K &c. in art. سكن,] like as do the Christians. (L, TA.) b2: Also, inf. n. as above, (tropical:) He prepared it; or put it into a right, or good, state; and made it; or made it skilfully, or well. (S, K, TA.) 8 إِحْتَذَفَ see 1.

(TA.) — [Hence,] one says, مَا فِى رَحْلِهِ حُذَافَةٌ (tropical:) There is not in his travelling-utensils any food: (S, Sgh, K:) or any small quantity of food &c. (Z, TA.) And أَكَلَ الطَّعَامَ فَمَا تَرَكَ مِنْهُ حُذَافَةٌ (assumed tropical:) [He ate the food, and left not of it anything]. (ISk, S.) And اِحْتَمَلَ رَحْلَهُ فَمَا تَرَكَ مِنْهُ حُذَافَةً (assumed tropical:) [He took up and carried away his travelling-apparatus, and left not of it anything]. (ISk, S.)

(ISd, TA.) The saying, in the Kur xxii. 11, وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ يَعْبُدُ اللّٰهَ عَلَى حَرْفٍ means And of men is he who serves God standing aloof with respect to religion, in a fluctuating state, like him who is in the outskirts of the army, who, if sure of victory and spoil, stands firm, and otherwise flees: (Ksh, Bd: *) or the meaning is, who serves God in doubt, or suspense, (Zj, K, Jel,) being unsteady like him who alights and abides upon the حَرْف [i. e. point, or ridge, or brow,] of a mountain: (Jel:) or in a state of disquietude respecting his case; (Ibn-'Arafeh, K;) i. e. not entering into the religion firmly, or steadily: (K:) or who serves God in one mode of circumstances; i. e. when in ample circumstances, and not when straitened in circumstances; (Az, S, K;) as though good fortune and plenty were one side, and an evil state were another side: (Az, TA:) [hence,] حَرْفٌ sometimes signifies a mode, or manner, and a way. (Msb.) b2: A letter of the alphabet: pl. حُرُوفٌ: (S, Msb, K:) the letters being thus called because they are the extremities of the word [and of the syllable]. (Kull.) The saying of the lawyers, تُبْطَلُ الصَّلَاةَ بِحَرْفٍ مُفْهِمٍ [Prayer is made null by a significant letter] means only by an imperative of a verb of which the first and last radical letters are infirm; such as فِ from وَفَى, and قِ from وَقَى, and the like.

(Mgh.) A2: Applied to a she-camel, (assumed tropical:) Lean, or light of flesh; or lean, and lank in the belly; (S, K;) and firm, strong, or hardy; likened to the حَرْف of a mountain; (S;) or to the حرف of a sword, (Z, O, TA,) in respect of her leanness, or thinness, and her sharpness and effectiveness in pace; (Z, TA;) or to a letter of the alphabet, meaning the letter ا, in respect of her leanness: (TA:) or excellent, or high-bred, or strong and light and swift, sharp and effective in pace, rendered lean by journeyings; likened to the حرف of a sword: (L:) or emaciated: (S, K:) so As used to say: (S:) but this is inconsistent with Dhu-r-Rummeh's description of a she-camel by the epithets جُمَالِيَّةٌ حَرْفٌ سِنَادٌ: (TA:) [see حَرِيثَةٌ:] or [in the CK “ and ”] great; big; of great size; (K, TA;) likened to the حرف of a mountain: (TA:) it is applied only to a she-camel: one may not say جَمَلٌ حَرْفٌ. (IAar, TA.) حُرْفٌ and ↓ حِرْفَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ حُرْفَةٌ (Mgh, K) and ↓ حِرَافٌ (TA) Ill-fatedness; privation of prosperity; or the being denied prosperity; syn. حِرْمَانٌ [as inf. n. of حُرِمَ]: (K, TA:) lack of good fortune, so that one has no increase of his cattle or other property: (S:) debarment from the means of subsistence. (Mgh.) Hence the saying of 'Omar, أَحَدِهِمْ أَشَدُّ عَلَىَّ مِنْ عَيْلَتِهِ ↓ لِحِرْفَةُ, (S, K,) or, accord. to one reading, ↓ لَحُرْفَةُ, (TA,) [Verily the ill-fatedness of any one of them is more distressing to me than his poverty:] i. e., the supplying the wants of the poor man is easier to me than the making the bad to thrive: or the meaning is, the want of the means of gaining subsistence by any one of them, and grief on that account, is more distressing to me than his poverty: so in the Nh. (TA.) A2: الحُرْفُ A certain grain, resembling الخَرْدَل [or mustard]; (Az, Msb, TA;) called by the vulgar, (AHn, TA,) or in the dial. of El-'Irák, (TA in art. رشد,) حَبُّ الرَّشَادِ, (AHn, S, K,) or الرَّشَادُ: (Msb:) n. un. with ة, (TA,) applied to a single grain thereof. (Msb.) [See art. رشد.] Hence حِرِّيفٌ [q. v.]. (S, Msb.) حُرْفَةٌ: see حُرْفٌ, in two places.

حِرْفَةٌ A craft, or handicraft, (S, K, TA,) by which one gains his subsistence; a mode, or manner, of gain; any habitual work or occupation of a man; because he turns (يَنْحَرِفُ, K, i. e. يَمِيلُ, TA) to it; (K, TA;) a subst. from اِحْتَرَفَ: (Mgh, Msb:) pl. حِرَفٌ.

حُرْفِىٌّ A seller of الحُرْف, i. e. حَبّ الرَّشَاد. (K.) حِرَافٌ: see حُرْفٌ.

حَرِيفٌ A fellow-worker, syn. مُعَامِلٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) in one's craft or ordinary occupation: (K:) and an associate: (KL:) pl. حُرَفَآءُ. (Msb.) b2: It is mostly used by foreigners as meaning A companion in drinking: and by most of the Turks, as implying vituperation; [like our term “ fel-low; ”] so that when any one of them addresses another by this epithet, he is angry. (TA.) حَرَافَةٌ The quality, or property, of burning, or biting, the tongue; acritude. (S, Msb, TA.) حِرِّيفٌ, from الحُرْفُ, Burning, or biting, to the tongue: (S, Msb, TA:) it is applied in this sense to an onion, and to other things: one should not say حَرِّيفٌ. (S, TA.) مَحْرِفٌ A place to which to turn away, or back, from a thing. (AO, S, K.) So in the saying, مَالِى عَنْ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ مَحْرِفٌ [I have no place to which to turn away, or back, from this thing]. (AO, S, K. *) b2: Also, and ↓ مُحْتَرَفٌ, A place in which a man earns or gains [subsistence], or labours to do so, and employs himself as he pleases, or follows his various pursuits.
