(L.) A2: حَجَّرَ البَعِيرُ The camel had a mark burned round each of his eyes with a circular cauterizing instrument. (K. [Perhaps this may be a mistake for حُجِّرَ البَعِيرُ: or for حَجَّرَ البَعِيرَ, meaning he burned a mark round each of the eyes of the camel &c.: but see what follows.]) b2: حجّر القَمَرُ, (S, K,) inf. n. as above, (K,) The moon became surrounded by a thin line, which did not become thick: (S, K:) and (S [in the K “ or ”]) became surrounded by a halo in the clouds.

And تحّجر وَاسِعًا He made strait what was ample: (Msb:) or he made strait what God made ample, and made it to be peculiar to himself, exclusively of others; as also ↓ حَجَرَهُ and ↓ حجّرهُ. (TA.) A2: See also 8: A3: and 10. b2: [Hence, perhaps,] تحجّر لِلْبُرْءِ It (a wound) closed up, and consolidated, to heal. (TA from a trad.) 8 احتجر, (TA,) or احتجرحَجْرَةً, (S, Msb,) and ↓ استحجر and ↓ تحجّر, (K,) He made for himself a حُجْرَة [i. e. an enclosure for camels] (S, Msb, K.) b2: And hence, (Msb,) احتجر الأَرْضَ, (Mgh, Msb, K,) and ↓ حَجَرَهَا, (TA,) He placed a land-mark to the land, (Mgh, Msb, K,) to confine it, (Mgh, Msb,) and to prevent others from encroaching upon it.

A2: Also, and ↓ حِجْرٌ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K TA,) [the latter of which I have found to be the more common in the present day,] and ↓ حُجْرٌ, (K, [but this I have not found in any other lexicon, and the TA, by implication, disallows it,]) The حِضْن; (Mgh, Msb, K;) [i. e. the bosom; or breast; agreeably with explanations of حِضْن in the K: or] the part beneath the armpit, extending to the flank; (Mgh, Msb;) [agreeably with other explanations of حِضْن;] of a man or woman: (S A, Mgh, Msb, K:) pl. حُجُورٌ. (S, Msb.) Hence the saying, (Mgh,) فُلَانٌ فِى حَجْرِ فُلَانٍ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is in the protection of such a one; (Az, T, Mgh, Msb;) as also ↓ فى حَجْرَتِهِ. (TA.) And نَشَأَ ↓ فِى حِجْرِهِ and حَجْرِهِ (assumed tropical:) He grew up in his care and protection. (K.) b2: Also ↓ حِجْرٌ (T, K) and حَجْرٌ (T, TA) [The bosom as meaning] the fore part of the garment; or the part, thereof, between one's arms. (T, K.) b3: See also حَجْرَةٌ: b4: and مَحْجِرُ العَيْنِ.

A3: Also An extended gibbous tract of sand. (K.) حُجْرٌ: see حِجْرٌ, in three places:

A2: and حَجْرٌ: b2: and مَحْجِرُ العَيْنِ.

حِجْرٌ (S A, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ حُجْرٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ حَجْرٌ, (S, K,) of which the first is the most chaste, (S,) and ↓ مَحْجَرٌ (S, K) and ↓ حَاجُورٌ (K) [and ↓ مَحْجُورٌ], Forbidden, prohibited, unlawful, inviolable, or sacred. (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K.) Each of the first three forms occurs in different readings of the Kur vi. 139. (S.) You say, هٰذَا حِجْرٌ عَلَيْكَ This is forbidden, or unlawful, to thee. (A.) In the time of paganism, a man meeting another whom he feared, in a sacred month, used to say, ↓ حِجْرًا مَحْجُورًا, meaning It is rigorously forbidden to thee [to commit an act of hostility against me] in this month: and the latter, thereupon, would abstain from any aggression against him: and so, on the day of resurrection, the polytheists, when they see the punishment, will say to the angels, thinking that it will profit them: (Lth, S: *) but Az says that I' Ab and his companions explain these words [occurring in the Kur xxv. 24] otherwise, i. e., as said by the angels, and meaning, the joyful annunciation is forbidden to be made to you: and accord. to El-Hasan, the former word will be said by the sinners, and the latter is said by God, meaning it will be forbidden to them to be granted refuge or protection as they used to be in their former life in the world: but Az adds, it is more proper to regard the two words as composing one saying: (TA:) and the latter word is a corroborative of the former, like مَائِتٌ in the expression مَوْتٌ مَائِتٌ. (Bd.) The same words in the Kur xxv. 55 signify A strong mutual repugnance, or incongruity; as though each said what one says who seeks refuge or protection from another: or, as some say, a defined limit. (Bd.) A man says to another, “Dost thou so and so, O such a one?” and the latter replies حِجْرًا, or ↓ حُجْرًا, or ↓ حَجْرًا, meaning [I pray for] preservation, and acquitment, from this thing; a meaning reducible to that of prohibition, and of a thing that is prohibited. (Sb.) The Arabs say, on the occasion of a thing that they disapprove, لَهُ ↓ حُجْرًا, with damm, meaning, May it be averted. (S.) b2: Homeyd Ibn-Thowr says, فَهَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَغْشَى إِلَيْهَا مَحْجَرًا وَلَمِثْلُهَا يُغْشَى إِلَيْهِ المَحْجَرُ meaning, And I purposed doing to her a forbidden action: and verily the like of her is one to whom that which is forbidden is done. (S, K.) ↓ مَحْجَرٌ is also explained as signifying حُرْمَةٌ; [app. meaning a thing from which one is bound to refrain, from a motive of respect or reverence;] and to have this meaning in the verse above. (Az.) b3: Also, the first of these words, Any حَائِط [i. e. garden, or walled garden of palm-trees,] which one prohibits [to the public]. (S.) b4: and الحِجْرُ That [space] which is comprised by [the curved wall called] the حَطِيم, (S, A, Mgh, K,) which encompasses the Kaabeh on the north [or rather north-west] side; (S, A, K;) on the side of the spout: (Mgh:) or the حطيم [itself], which encompasses the Kaabeh on the side of the spout. (Msb.) [It is applied to both of these in the present day; but more commonly to the former.] b5: Also, حِجْرٌ, The anterior pudendum of a man and of a woman; and so ↓ حَجْرٌ: (K, TA:) the latter the more chaste. (TA.) b6: A mare; the female of the horse: (S, A, Msb, K:) and a mare kept for breeding; (A;) as though her womb were forbidden to all but generous horses: (T:) but in the latter sense the sing. is scarcely ever used; though its pl., the first of the following forms, (as well as the second, A,) is used to signify mares kept for breeding: (K:) ↓ حِجْرَةٌ, as a sing., is said by F and others to be a barbarism: it occurs in a trad.; but perhaps the ة is there added to assimilate it to بَغْلَةٌ, with which it is there coupled: (MF:) the pl. [of pauc.] is أَحْجَارٌ (Msb, K) and [of mult.] حُجُورٌ (A, Msb, K) and حُجُورَةٌ. (K.) A poet says, إِذَا خَرِسَ الفَحْلُ وَسْطَ الحُجُورِ وَصَاحَ الكِلَابُ وَعَقَّ الوَلَدْ When the stallion, seeing the army and the gleaming swords, is mute in the midst of the mares kept for breeding, and does not look towards them, and the dogs bark at their masters, because of the change of their appearances, and children behave undutifully to their mothers whom fear diverts from attending to them. (A.) b7: Relationship [that prohibits marriage]; nearness with respect to kindred. (Msb, K.) b8: Understanding, intelligence, intellect, mind, or reason: (S, A, Msb, K:) so in the Kur lxxxix. 4: (S, Bd:) thus called because it forbids that which it does not behoove one to do. (Bd.) One says, فِى ذٰلِكَ عِبْرَةٌ لِذِي حِجْرٍ In that is an admonition to him who possesses understanding, &c. (A.) A2: See also حَجُرٌ, in three places.

حَجَرٌ [A stone; explained in the K by صَخْرَةٌ; but this means “a rock,” or “a great mass of stone” or “of hard stone”]; (S, K, &c.;) so called because it resists, by reason of its hardness; (Mgh;) and ↓ أُحْجُرٌّ signifies the same: (Fr, K:) pl. (of pauc., of the former, S) أَحْجَارٌ (S, Mgh, K) and أَحْجُرٌ (K) and (of mult, S) حِجَارٌ and [more commonly] حِجَارَةٌ, (S, K,) which last is extr. [with respect to rule], (S,) or agreeable with a usage of the Arabs, which is, to add ة to any pl. of the measure فِعَالٌ or of that of فُعُولٌ, as in the instances of ذِكَارَةٌ and فِحَالَةٌ and ذُكُورَةٌ and فُحُولَةٌ. (AHeyth.) And (metonymically, TA) (tropical:) Sand: (IAar, K;) pl. أَحْجَارٌ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] أَهْلُ الحَجَرِ The people of the desert, who dwell in stony and sandy places: occurring in a trad., coupled with أَهْلُ المَدَرِ. (TA.) b3: الحَجَرُ الأَسْوَدُ, and simply الحَجَرُ, The [Black] Stone of the Kaabeh. (K, TA.) El-Farezdak applies to it, in one instance, the pl. الأَحْجَارُ, considering the sing. as applicable to every part of it. (TA.) b4: One says, فُلَانٌ حَجَرُ الأَرْضِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) Such a one is unequalled. (TA.) and رُمِىَ فُلَانٌ بِحَجَرِ الأَرْضِ (tropical:) Such a one has had a very sagacious and crafty and politic man made to be an assailant against him. (K, * TA.) El-Ahnaf Ibn-Keys said to 'Alee, when Mo'á-wiyeh named 'Amr Ibn-El-'Ás as one of the two umpires, قَدْ رُمِيتَ بِحَجَرِ الأَرْضِ فَاجْعَلْ مَعَهُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَعْقِدُ عُقْدَةً إِلَّا حَلَّهَا (assumed tropical:) Thou hast had a most exceedingly sagacious and crafty and politic man made to be an assailant against thee: so appoint thou with him Ibn-'Abbás; for he will not tie a knot but he shall untie it: meaning one that shall stand firm like a stone upon the ground. (L from a trad.) One says also, رُمىَ فُلَانٌ بِحَجَرِهِ, meaning (tropical:) Such a one was coupled [or opposed] with his like: (A:) [as though he had a stone suited to the purpose of knocking him down cast at him.] b5: لِلْعَاهِرِ الحَجَرُ, occurring in a trad., means (assumed tropical:) For the fornicator, or adulterer, disappointment, and prohibition: accord. to some, it is meant to allude to stoning; [and it may have had this meaning in the first instance in which it was used;] but [in general] this is not the case; for every fornicator is not to be stoned. (IAth, TA.) [See also art. عهر.] b6: الحَجَرُ Gold: and silver. (K.) Both together are called الحَجَرَانِ. (S.) حَجِرٌ [Stony; abounding with stones]. Yousay أَرْضٌ حَجِرَةٌ [so in several copies of the K; in the CK حَجْرَةٌ;] Land abounding with stones; as also ↓ حَجِيرَةٌ and ↓ مُتَحَجِّرَةٌ. (K.) حُجُرٌ The flesh surrounding the nail. (K.) حَجْرَةٌ A severe year, that confines men to their tents, or houses, so that they slaughter their generous camels to eat them. (L in art. نبت, on a verse of Zuheyr.) A2: A side; an adjacent tract or quarter; (ISd, K;) as also ↓ حَجْرَةٌ: (EM p. 281:) pl. of the former ↓ حَجْرٌ, [or rather this is a coll. gen. n., of which the former is the n. un.,] and حَجَرَاتٌ (S, K) and ↓ حَوَاجِرُ: (K:) the last is mentioned by ISd as being thought by him to be a pl. of حَجْرَةٌ in the sense above explained, contr. to analogy. (TA.) Hence, حَجْرَةٌ قَوْمٍ The tract or quarter adjacent to the abode of a people. (S.) And حَجْرَتَا الطَّرِيقِ The two sides of the road. (TA.) And حَجْرَتَا عَسْكَرٍ The two sides of an army; (A, TA;) its right and left wings. (TA.) And قَعَدَ حَجْرَةً He sat aside. (A.) And سَارَ حَجْرَةً He journeyed aside, by himself. (TA.) And ↓ مَحْجَرًا is also said to signify the same, in the following ex.: تَرْعَى مَحْجَرًا وَتَبْرُكُ وَسَطًا She (the camel) pastures aside, and lies down in the middle. (TA.) It is said in a prov., يَرْبِضُ حَجْرَةً وَيَرْتَعِى وَسَطًا He lies down aside, and pastures in the middle: (S:) or فُلَانٌ يَرْعَى وَسَطًا وَيَرْبِضُ حَجْرَةً Such a one pastures in the middle, and lies down aside: (TA:) applied to a man who is in the midst of a people when they are in prosperity, and when they become in an evil state leaves them, and lies down apart: the prov. is ascribed to Gheylán Ibn-Mudar. (IB.) Imra-el--Keys says, [addressing Khálid, in whose neighbourhood he had alighted and sojourned, and who had demanded of him some horses and riding-camels to pursue and overtake a party that had carried off some camels belonging to him (Imra-el-Keys), on Khálid's having gone away, and returned without anything,] فَدَعْ عَنْكَ نَهْبًا صِيحَ حَجَرَاتِهِ وَلٰكِنْ حَدِيثًا مَا حَديثُ الرَّوَاحِلِ [Then let thou alone spoil by the sides of which a shouting was raised: but relate to me a story. What is the story of the riding-camels?]: hence the prove., الحُكْمُ لِلّهِ وَدَعْ عَنْكَ نَهْبًا صِيحَ فِى حَجَرَاتِهِ [Dominion belongeth to God: then let thou alone &c.]; said with reference to him who has lost part of his property and after that lost what is of greater value. (TA.) [And hence the saying,] قَدِ انْتَشَرَتْ حَجْرَتُهُ (assumed tropical:) His property has become large, or ample. (S.) b2: See also حَجْرٌ.

حُجْرَةٌ An enclosure (حَظِيرَةٌ) for camels.

Hence the saying, (TA,) لَا قَطْعَ فِى حَرِيسَةِ الجَبَلِ (tropical:) [There shall be no amputation of the hand for the sheep, or goat, that is stolen by night from the mountain]. (A, TA.) IF says that there are two explanations of the expression حريسة الجبل: some make it to signify theft, or the thing stolen, (السَّرِقَةُ,) itself: others make the meaning to be, that there shall be no amputation for [stealing] what is guarded, or kept, in the mountain, because it is not a place well protected: ISk says that الحَرِيسَةُ signifies السَّرِقَةُ. (Msb.) b3: A wall of stones, made for sheep, or goats, (K,) to guard them.

(S, Msb.) b2: Also (tropical:) A thief; used in this sense ironically; (A, Mgh, TA;) because they found guardians to be thieves; (A, TA;) and so ↓ مُحْتَرِسٌ: (TA:) pl. of the former, حُرَّاسٌ.

[It seems to have been customary for the widow to collect a number of pieces of بَعْر, as many as the days she had to wait before she could marry again, and to throw away one each day: so that the saying means She threw the last piece of بعر.]

A2: بَعِرَ, aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. بَعَرٌ, (TA,) He (a camel) became a بَعِير. (K.) 2 بَعَّرَ see 4.3 بَاعَرَتْ حَالِبَهَا, [inf. n., app., بِعَارٌ, q. v.,] said of a ewe or she-goat, (K,) and of a she-camel, (TA,) She befouled her milker with her dung. (TA voce بِعَارٌ.)

And it is said in a prov., أَنْتَ كَصَاحِبِ البَعْرَةِ [Thou art like the owner of the piece of بعر, or أَنْتَ فِى مِثْلِ صَاحِبِ البَعْرَةِ Thou art in a condition like that of the owner of the piece of بعر; (meaning the person for whom it was intended;) applied to him who reveals a thing relating to himself; (see Freytag's Arab.

If one say, أَعْطُونِى بَعِيرًا [Give ye to me a بعير], the persons so addressed, accord. to EshSháfi'ee, are not to give a she-camel: (Msb:) but the following phrases are transmitted from the Arabs: صَرَعَتْنِى بَعِيرِى My she-camel threw me down prostrate: (S, A:) and حَلَبْتُ بَعِيرِى I milked my camel: (A, Msb:) and شَرِبْتُ مِنْ لَبَنِ بَعِيرِى I drank of the milk of my camel: (S:) and كِلَا هٰذِيْنِ البِعْرَيْنِ نَاقَةٌ Each of these two camels is a she-camel.

You say, بَلَغَ اللّٰهُ بِكَ أَكْلَأَ العُمُرِ, i. e. [May God cause thee to reach, or attain,] the extreme, or most distant, period of life! (S and TA in art. كلأ.) And فَعَلْتُ بِهِ مَا بَلَغَ بِهِ الأَذَى وَ المَكْرُوهْ [I did with him that which caused him to come to what was annoying, or hurtful, and evil]. (TA.) And بَلَغَ بِهِ البِلَغِينَ: see the last word of this phrase below. b3: بُلِغَ, like عُنِىَ, He (a man) was, or became, jaded, harasssed, distressed, fatigued, or wearied. (K.) A2: بَلُغَ, [aor. ـُ (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. بَلَاغَةٌ, (S, Msb,) He was, or became بَلِيغ, i. e. فَصِيح [more properly signifying chaste, or perspicuous, in speech, but here meaning eloquent]; (S, * Msb, K;) and sharp, or penetrating, or effective, in tongue; (Msb;) attaining, by his speech, or diction, the utmost scope of his mind and desire. (K, * TA.) The difference between بَلَاغَةٌ and فَصَاحَةٌ is this: that the latter is an attribute of a single word and of speech and of the speaker; but the former is an attribute only of speech and the speaker: (Kull:) بلاغة in the speaker is A faculty whereby one is enabled to compose language suitable to the exigency of the case, i. e., to the occasion of speaking [or writing], with chasteness, or perspicuity, or eloquence, thereof: in language, it is suitableness to the exigency of the case, i. e., to the occasion of speaking [or writing], with chasteness or perspicuity, or eloquence, thereof. (KT.) 2 تَبْلِيغٌ and ↓ إِبْلَاغٌ [inf. ns. of بلّغ and ابلغ] signify The causing to reach, attain, arrive, or come; bringing, conveying, or delivering: (S, K, TA:) the former is the more common. (Er-Rághib, TA.) [You say, بلّغهُ المَكَانَ He caused him, or it, to reach, attain, arrive at, or come to, the place. And بلّغهُ مَقْصُودَهُ He caused him to attain his object of aim or endeavour &c.] and بَلَّغْتُ الرِّسَالَةَ [I brought, conveyed, or delivered, the message]. (S.) And بلّغهُ السَّلَامَ, (Msb,) and الخَبَرَ, (TA,) as also ↓ ابلغهُ, (Msb, TA,) He brought, conveyed, delivered, or communicated, to him the salutation, (Msb,) and he brought, &c., or told, to him the news, or information. (TA.) [and بَلَّغَنِى عَنْ فُلَانٍ He told me from such a one, or on the part of such a one, some piece of information, or that some event had happened, &c.]

A2: بلّغ الفَارِسُ, (S, A, K,) inf. n. تَبْلِيغٌ, (K,) The horseman stretched forth, or extended, his hand, or arm, with the rein of his horse, [or gave the rein to his horse,] in order that he might increase in his running. (S, A, K.) A3: بلّغ الشَّيْبُ فِى رَأْسِهِ Hoariness began to appear on his head; accord. to IAar; as also بلّع, with the unpointed ع: the Basrees assert that the former is a mistranscription; but it is related as heard from Th, by Aboo-Bekr Es-Soolee. (TA.) 3 بالغ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) inf. n. مُبَالَغَةٌ (JK, K, &c.) and بِلَاغٌ, (K.) He exceeded the usual, or ordinary, or the just, or proper, bounds, or degree, in a thing; acted egregiously, or immoderately, or extravagantly, therein: (KL:) he strove, or laboured; exerted himself, or his power or efforts or endeavours or ability; employed himself vigorously, strenuously, laboriously, sedulously, earnestly, with energy or effectiveness; took pains, or extraordinary pains: (K, TA:) he did not fall short of doing what was requisite, or what he ought; did not flag, or was not remiss: (S, K, TA:) he exerted unsparingly his power or ability, or effort or endeavour, or the utmost thereof: (Msb:) he accomplished, or did, or attained, the utmost of his power or ability, or effort or endeavour; he did his utmost: (JK:) فِى أَمْرٍ [in an affair]: (S, K, TA:) or فِى كَذَا, meaning in the pursuit of such a thing. (Msb.) بالغ فِى كَذَا may be rendered as above, or He did such a thing much, exceedingly, egregiously, extraordinarily, immoderately, extravagantly, excessively, vehemently, energetically, superlatively, excellently, consummately, thoroughly. Hence مُبَالَغَةٌ in explanations of words; meaning Intensiveness; muchness; extraordinariness; excessiveness; vehemence; energy; emphasis; hyperbole; &c.; and sometimes, frequentative signification. Thus, إِسْمُ مُبَالَغَةٍ means A noun of intensiveness; or an intensive epithet: as شَكُورٌ

“ very thankful,” or “ very grateful; ” and حَمَّادٌ

“ a great praiser,” or “ a frequent praiser. ”]4 ابلغ, inf. n. إِبْلَاغٌ: see 2, in two places. [Hence,] ابلغ الأَمْرَ جَهْدَهُ [He brought his utmost power or ability, or effort or endeavour, to the performance, or accomplishment, of the affair]. (TA.) And أَبْلَغْتُ إِلَيْهِ i. e. فَعَلْتُ بِهِ مَا بَلَغَ بِهِ الأَذَى وَ المَكْرُوهَ [I did with him that which caused him to come to what was annoying, or hurtful, and evil]. (TA.) A2: See also 1, first sentence; where it is said that إِبْلَاغٌ is syn. with بُلُوغٌ; but this is app. a mistake.

A3: [مَا أَبْلَغَهُ, and أَبْلِغْ بِهِ, How eloquent is he !].5 تبلّغ المَنْزِلَ He constrained himself to reach, or attain, the place of abode, until, or so that, he did reach [it], or attain [it]. (K.) b2: تبلّغ بِهِ He was satisfied, or content, with it, (S, Msb, K,) and attained his desire [thereby]. (TA.) b3: تَبَلَّغَتْ بِهِ العِلَّةُ The disease, or malady, distressed him; afflicted him; became vehement, or severe, in him. (S, Z, Sgh, K.) 6 تبالغ الدِّبَاغُ فِى الجِلْدِ The tan attained its utmost effect in the skin. (AHn.) And تبالغ فِيهِ الهَّمُ, and المَرَضَ, Anxiety, or disquietude of mind, or grief, attained its utmost degree in him, and so disease, or the disease. (TA.) [This verb seems properly to signify It reached, or attained, by degrees.]

A2: تبالغ فِى كَلَامِهِ He affected eloquence (بَلَاغَة) in his speech, not being of those characterized thereby: [whence] one says, مَا هُوَ بِبَلِيغٍ

وَلٰكِنْ يَتَبَالِغُ [He is not eloquent, but he affects eloquence]. (TA.) بَلْغٌ: see what next follows, in three places: A2: and see بَالِغٌ, in two places: b2: and بَلِيغٌ, in two places.

اللّٰهُمَ سِمْعٌ لَا بِلْغٌ, and ↓ سَمْعٌ لَا بَلْغٌ, (Ks, Fr, S, K,) and ↓ سَمْعًا لَا بَلْغًا, (Ks, S, K,) and سِمْعًا لَا بِلْغًا, (K,) O God, may we hear of it (or may it be heard of, IB) but may it not be fulfilled; (Fr, S, K;) or, may it not reach us, or come to us: said on hearing of a displeasing, or hateful, or an evil, event: (L:) or on hearing tidings not pleasing to one: (Ks, S, K:) or on the coming of tidings not held to be true. (TA.) [See also art. سمع.]

A2: أَحْمَقُ بِلْغٌ, (S, K,) and ↓ بَلْغٌ, and ↓ بَلْغَةٌ, (K,) Stupid, or foolish, but, notwithstanding his stupidity, or foolishness, attaining his desire: (S, K:) or stupid, or foolish, in the utmost degree: (K, TA:) fem. حَمْقَآءُ بِلْغَةٌ. (TA.) b2: رَجُلٌ بِلْغٌ مِلْغٌ (S, * K) A man who is bad, evil, or wicked, (Fr, K,) in the utmost degree. (Fr, TA.) b3: See also بَلِيغٌ.

بِلَغٌ: see بَلِيغٌ.

بَلْغَةٌ: see بِلْغٌ.

بُلْغَةٌ A sufficiency of the means of subsistence, (T, S, Msb, K,) such that nothing remains over and above it: (T, Msb:) and simply a sufficiency; enough; (JK, Msb, TA;) as also ↓ بَلَاغٌ, (JK, S, Msb, K,) meaning a thing that suffices, or contents, and enables one to attain what he seeks; (TA;) and ↓ تَبَلُّغٌ. (JK, Msb, TA.) You say, فِى هٰذَا بُلْغَةٌ, and ↓ بَلَاغٌ, and ↓ تَبَلُّغٌ, In this is a sufficiency, or enough. (Msb, TA.) And it is said in the Kur [xxi. 106], لِقَوْمٍ ↓ إِنَّ فِى هٰذَا لَبَلَاغًا عَابِدِينَ Verily in this is a sufficiency [for a people serving God]: (Bd, TA:) or a means of attaining the object sought after, or desired. (Bd.) بِلَغْنٌ: see بَلَاغَةٌ.

A2: Also A calumniator, or slanderer: (Kr, TA:) or one who conveys people's discourse to others. (TA.) البُلَغِينَ, (S,) or البِلَغِينَ, (JK,) or both, (K,) Calamity, misfortune, or disaster: (S, K:) or distress, or affliction. (JK.) Hence the saying of 'Áïsheh to 'Alee, (S, K,) when she was taken prisoner [by him], (S,) بَلَغْتَ مِنَّا البُلَغِينَ, (S, K,) and البِلَغِينَ, (K,) i. e., الدَّاهِيَةَ; meaning بَلَغْتَ

↓ مِنَّا كُلَّ مَبْلَغٍ [Thou hast distressed us, or afflicted us, in the utmost degree]: (K:) it is said to mean that the war harassed her, and distressed her in the utmost degree. (TA.) It is like البُرَحِينَ [and البِرَحِينَ] and الأَطْوَرِينَ; all meaning calamities, misfortunes, or disasters: (A'Obeyd, TA:) and is as though they said خَطْبٌ بِلَغٌ [and بُلَغٌ], meaning بَلِيغٌ, and then formed the pl. thus because they considered calamities [as personified, i. e.,] as rational beings having purpose, or design. (IAth, TA.) It is invariably thus, terminating with ى and ن: or one may say in the nom. case البُلَغُونَ, and in the accus. and gen. البُلَغِينَ. (O, K. *) You say also, بَلَغَ بِهِ البِلَغِينَ [lit. He caused him to come, i. e. he brought him, to calamity, misfortune, or disaster, or to distress, or affliction]; meaning he went to the utmost point in reviling him, and annoying him, or molesting him. (IAar, TA.) بَلَاغٌ is a subst. from تَبْلِيغٌ and إِبْلَاغٌ, meaning The bringing, conveyance, delivery, or communication, (S, K, &c.,) of a message [&c.]. (Jel in iii. 19, &c.) [It often occurs in the Kur as meaning The communication, or announcement, of what is revealed.] b2: In a trad., in which it is said, كُلُّ رَافِعَةٍ رَفَعَتْ إِلَيْنَا مِنَ البَلَاغِ, [in the CK رُفِعَتْ علينا,] it means What is communicated, or announced, (مَا بَلَغَ,) of the Kur-án and of the [statutes, or ordinances, &c., termed] سُنَن: or the meaning is, مِنْ ذَوِى البَلَاغِ, i. e., التَّبْلِيغِ, [of those who have the office of communicating, or announcing,] the simple subst. being put in the place of the inf. n.: (K, TA:) but some relate it differently, saying ↓ مِنَ البُلَّاغِ [of the communicators, or announcers,] like حُدَّاث in the sense of مُحَدِّثُون: (TA:) and some say, ↓ مِنَ البِلَاغِ, meaning مِنَ المُبَالِغِينَ فِى التَّبْلِيغِ, i. e. of those who do their utmost in communicating, or announcing. (Hr, K.) [See this trad. cited and explained more fully in the first paragraph of art. رفع.] b3: هٰذَا بَلَاغٌ لِلنَّاسِ, in the Kur [xiv. last verse], means This Kur-án contains a sufficient exposition, or demonstration, for men. (TA.) b4: See also بُلْغَةٌ, in three places.

(TA.) Applied to a saying, [&c.,] it also signifies Effectual, or producing an effect. (Ksh and Bd and Jel in iv. 66.) b2: [Also Surpassing in any quality: and superlative.] It is also applied to a calamity or the like [as meaning Great, severe, distressing, or afflictive]. (IAth.) بَلَاغَةٌ i. q. فَصَاحَةٌ, [as meaning Eloquence; (see بَلُغَ, of which it is the inf. n.;)] (S, Msb, *) as also ↓ بِلَغْنٌ. (Seer, TA.) b2: And [the pl.] بَلَاغَاتٌ Slanders, or calumnies.

And ↓ أَمْرُ اللّٰهِ بَلْغٌ, i. e. بَالِغٌ, (S, K,) meaning [The decree of God] reacheth, or attaineth, its intended object: (K:) from the saying in the Kur [lxv. 3], إِنَّ اللّٰهَ بَالِغٌ أَمْرَهُ (S) Verily God attaineth his purpose. (Bd, Jel.) and بَالِغٌ فِى الحُمْقِ Reaching the utmost point, or degree, in stupidity, or foolishness. (TA.) and لَزِمَهُ ذٰلِكَ بَالِغًا مَا بَلَغَ: see 1: and see the sentence there next following it.

(Msb.) b3: A good, a goodly, or an excellent, thing. (S, K.) أَبْلَغُ [More, and most, effectual or efficacious: see بَلِيغٌ]. b2: ثَنَآءٌ أَبْلَغُ i. q. فِيهِ ↓ مُبَالَغٌ [Praise, or eulogy, or commendation, in which the usual, or ordinary, or the just, or proper, bounds are exceeded; such as is egregious, or immoderate, or extravagant; &c.: see 3].

(Msb. [But in this last work it seems to be مثبْهِمَةٌ, which is not agreeable with common usage.]) In the copies of the K, بُهْمٌ and بُهُمٌ are given as pls. of this word: but it seems that there is an omission or a misplacement in the passage; for these are said to be pls. of بَهِيمٌ, as shown above. (TA.) b7: (assumed tropical:) In a state of swooning or insensibility, speechless, and without discrimination; in consequence of a blow [&c.]. (TA.) b8: See also بَهِيمٌ.
