الغدير ضحلا قل مَاؤُهُ
بلدكم محل، وماؤكم ضحل؛ قليل، ومنه قولهم: كأتان الضحل وهي الصخرة في الماء.
الضَّحْل: القَلِيل من الماء. وقيل: الماءُ القَريب المَكانِ. وضَحَل الماءُ: رَقّ. وضَحَلَت الغُدْران: قَلَّ ماؤُها. والضَّحَل، بالتَّحريك: مكان الضَّحْل ويروى من البَعْل
ضحل: الضَّحْل: الماءُ القريبُ القَعْر. والضَّحْضاحُ: أعَمُّ منه قلَّ أو كثر. وأتان الضحل: الصَّخْرة بعضُها غامِرٌ وبعضُها ظاهر. والمَضْحَل: مكان يقِلُّ فيه الماء من الضَّحْل، وبه يُشَبَّه السَّراب، قال:
حسِبتُ يَوماً غيرَ قَرٍّ شاملاً ... يَنسُجُ غُدراناً على مَضاحِلاً
حضل: حَضِلَتِ النخْلةُ: أي فَسَدَ أصولُ سعفها، و [حظلت] أيضاً. وصَلاحُها: إشعالُ نارٍ فيها حتّى يحترقَ ما فَسَدَ من ليفها وسَعَفها ثم تجود بعد ذلك.
ضحَلَ يَضحَل، ضحْلاً، فهو ضاحِل وضَحْل
• ضحَل النَّهرُ: قلَّ ماؤه "ضحَل البئرُ/ النَّبعُ".
ضَحالة [مفرد]:
1 - سطحيَّة، تفاهة "ضحالة المعلومات/ تفكيره/ المعرفة العلميَّة/ النُّظم الماليَّة".
2 - قلّة عمق "ضحالة الماء".
ضَحْل [مفرد]: ج أضحال (لغير المصدر {وضِحال} لغير المصدر) وضُحول (لغير المصدر):
1 - مصدر ضحَلَ.
2 - صفة مشبَّهة تدلّ على الثبوت من ضحَلَ: قريب القعر ° ثقافة ضحلة- ضَحْل التَّفكير: تفكيره سطحيّ لا عُمْق فيه ولا حِكْمة.
3 - ماءٌ قليل على الأرض لا عُمْق له.
الضَّحْلُ: المَاء الرَّقِيق على وَجه الأَرْض لَيْسَ لَهُ عمق. وَقيل: هُوَ كالضحضاح، إِلَّا أَن الضحضاح أَعم مِنْهُ لِأَنَّهُ فِيمَا قل أَو كثر. وَقيل: الضَّحْلُ، المَاء الْقَلِيل يكون فِي الْعين والبئر والجمة وَنَحْوهَا. وَقيل: هُوَ المَاء الْقَلِيل يكون فِي الغدير وَنَحْوه، وَالْجمع أضْحالٌ وضُحُولٌ وضِحالٌ، قَالَ أُميَّة بن أبي عَائِذ:
فأورَدَها مُسْتَحيرَ الجما ... مِ ذَا طُحْلبٍ طافِيا فِي الضِحالِ
قَوْله: فِي الضحال، كَمَا تَقول زيد كريم فِي النَّاس.
والمَضْحَلُ: مَكَان فِيهِ الضَّحْلُ، قَالَ العجاج:
حَسِبْتَ يَوْمًا غير قرٍّ شامِلاً
ينسجُ غُدْرَانا على مَضاحلا
يصف السراب، شبهه بالغدر. وضَحلت الْغدر، قل مَاؤُهَا.
ضحل: الضَّحْلُ: القريبُ القَعْر. والضَّحْل: الماءُ الرقيق على وجه
الأَرض ليس له عَمْقٌ، وقيل: هو كالضَّحْضاح إِلاَّ أَن الضَّحْضاح أَعمُّ
منه لأَنه فيما قَلَّ أَو كثُر، وقيل: الضَّحْل الماء القليل يكون في
العين والبئر والجُمَّة ونحوها، وقيل: هو الماء القليل يكون في الغَدِير
ونحوه؛ أَنشد ابن بري لابن مقبل:
وأَظْهَرَ، في غُلاَّنِ رَقْدٍ وسَيْلُه،
عَلاجِيمُ لا ضَحلٌ، ولا مُتَضَحْضِحُ
والعُلْجُوم هنا: الماء الكثير، والجمع أَضْحال وضُحُولٌ. الجوهري:
الضَّحْلُ الماء القليل، ومنه أَتَانُ الضَّحْل لأَنه لا يَغْمُرها لقِلَّته؛
قال الأَزهري: أَتانُ الضَّحْل الصَّخْرةُ بعضها غَمَره الماءُ وبعضها
ظاهر. قال شمر: وغَدِيرٌ ضاحِلٌ إِذا رَقَّ ماؤه فذهب. وفي الحديث في
كتابه لأُكَيْدِرِ دومَةَ: ولنا الضّاحِيةُ من الضَّحْل؛ هو بالسكون القليل
من الماء، وقيل: الماء القريب المكان، وبالتحريك مكان الضَّحْل، ويروى
الضاحية من البَعْل. والمَضْحَلُ: مكانٌ يَقِلُّ فيه الماء من الضَّحْل، وبه
يُشَبَه السَّراب. قال ابن سيده: المَضْحَلُ مكان الضَّحْل؛ قال
العَجّاج:
حَسِبْتُ يوماً، غَيْر قَرٍّ، شامِلا
يَنْسُج غُدْراناً على مَضاحِلا
(* قوله «حسبت» هكذا في المحكم، وفي التكملة: كأن).
يصف السَّرابَ شبهه بالغُدُر. وضَحَلَتِ الغُدُرُ: قَلَّ ماؤها. ويقال:
إِنَّ خَيْرَكَ لضَحْلٌ أَي قليل. وما أَضْحَل خَيرَكَ أَي ما أَقَلَّه.
واضْمَحَلَّ السحابُ: تقَشَّعَ. واضْمَحَلَّ الشيءُ أَي ذهب، وفي لغة
الكِلابيِّين امْضَحَلَّ، بتقديم الميم، حكاها أَبو زيد.
الضَّحْلُ: الْماءُ الْقَلِيلُ، وهوَ الضَّحْضَاحُ، كَما فِي الصّحاحِ، وَفِي المُحْكَمِ: هوَ الماءُ الرَّقِيقُ عَلى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، لَا عُمْقَ لَهُ، قالَ شيخُنا: قَيَّدَهُ بَعْضُهم بَأنْ يَظْهَرَ مِنْهُ القَعْرُ، وقيلَ: بل الضَّحْضَاحُ أَعَمُّ مِنَ الضَّحْلِ، لأنَّهُ فِيمَا قَلَّ أَو كَثُرَ، وقيلَ: الضَّحْلُ الْمَاءُ القَلِيلُ، يكونُ فِي العَيْنِ، والبِئْرِ، والجُمَّةِ، ونَحْوِها، وقيلَ: يَكونُ فِي الغَدِيرِ ونَحْوِهِ، وأَنْشَدَ ابنُ بَرِّيٍّ لابنِ مُقْبِلٍ: عَلاجِيمُ لَا ضَحْلٌ وَلَا مُتَضَحْضَحُ والعُلْجُومُ هُنا: الماءُ الكَثِيرُ، وَفِي الحَدِيثِ فِي كِتَابِهِ لأُكَيْدِرِ دَوْمَةَ: ولَنَا الضَّاحِيَةُ مِنَ الضَّحْلِ، وهوَ الماءُ القَلِيلُ أَو القَريبُ المَكانِ، ويُرْوَى: مِنَ الْبَعْلِ. ج: أَضْحالٌ، وضُحُولٌ، وضِحَالٌ، بالكَسرِ، قالَ الجَوْهَرِيُّ: ومنهُ أَتَانُ الضَّحْلِ، لأَنَّهُ لَا يَغُمُرُها بِهِ لِقِلَّتِهِ، وقالَ الأَزْهَرِيُّ: أَتَانُ الضَّحْلِ: الصَّخْرَةُ بَعْضُها غَمَرَهُ الْمَاءُ وبَعْضُها ظَاهِرٌ، وسيأْتِي فِي أت ن. والمَضْحَلُ، كَمَقْعَدٍ: الْمَكَانُ يَقِلُّ فيهِ الْماءُ، وبِهِ يُشَبَّهُ السَّرَابُ، وَفِي المُحْكَمِ: المَضْحَلُ مَكانُ الضَّحْلِ، قالَ العَجَّاجُ: حَسِبْتُ يَوْماً غَيْرَ قَرٍّ شامِلاَ يَنْسُجُ غُدْرَاناً عَلى مَضَاحِلاَ يَصَفُ السَّحابَ شَبَّهَهُ بالْغُدُرِ. وضَحَلَ الْمَاءُ: رَقَّ، وقَلَّ، وضَحَلَتِ الْغُدُرُ: قَلَّ ماؤُها، وقالَ شَمِر: غَدِيرٌ ضَاحِلٌ: رَقَّ مَاؤُهُ، فَذَهَبَ. وممّا يُسْتَدْرَكُ عَلَيْهِ: يُقالُ: إِنَّ خَيْرَكَ: أَي مَا أَقَلَّهُ.
[ضحل] نه: فيه: إن على كل أهل بيت "أضحاة"، أي أضحية، وفيه لغات: أضحية وإضحية والجمع أضاحي، وضحية والجمع ضحايا، وأضحاة وجمعه أضــحى. ك: الأضاحي بشدة ياء وخفتها. نه: وفيه: بينا نحن "ننضــحى"، أي نتغدى، من قولهم: ألا ضحوا رويدًا، أي ارفقوا بالإبل حتى تتضــحى أي تنال من المرعى، ثم وضعت التضحية مكان الرفق، ثم اتسع فقيل لكل من أكل وقت الضــحى: يتضــحى، أي يأكل في هذا الوقت، والضحاء بالفتح والمد هو إذا علت الشمس إلى ربع السماء فما بعده. ط: وقيل: معنى نتضــحى نصلي الضــحى. نه: ومنه ح: يتروحون في "الضحاء"، أي قريبًا من نصف النهار، فأما الضحوة فهو ارتفاع أول النهار، والضــحى بالضم والقصر فوقه، وبه سميت صلاته. ومنه ح عمر: "اضحوا" بصلاة "الضــحى"، أي صلوها لوقتها ولا تؤخروها إلى ارتفاع الضــحى. ومن الأول كتاب على إلى ابن عباس: ألا "ضح" رويدًا فقد بلغت المدى، أي اصبر قليلًا.
ضحل
1 ضَحَلَ, (O, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) said of water, It was, or became, shallow, (O, K, TA,) and little in quantity. (TA.) And said of a pool of water left by a torrent, Its water became little in quantity. (K.) 4 مَا أَضْحَلَ خَيْرَكَ means مَا أَقَلَّهُ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) How little, or scanty, is thy goodness, or bounty, or beneficence!]. (TA.) Q. Q. 4 اِضْمَحَلَّ, (S, O, K,) mentioned in the K in a separate art., its author, and some others, holding the م to be radical, but most of the leading authorities on inflection hold it, with J [and Sgh and Fei], to be augmentative; (TA;) and اِمْضَحَلَّ, (S, O, Msb, K,) of the dial. of the Kilá-bees, mentioned by Az, formed by transposition of the م; (S, O, TA;) and اِمْضَحَنَّ, (K,) formed by substitution, mentioned by Yaakoob; (TA;) It (a thing, S, O) went away; (S, O, Msb, K;) and came to nought. (Msb.) b2: And said of clouds (سَحَاب), They became removed, or cleared off. (S, O, Msb, K.) b3: And i. q. اِنْحَلَّ [It became untied, or undone, &c.]. (K.) ضَحْلٌ A small quantity of water, (S, M, O, K,) upon the ground, (M, K,) shallow, (M,) not deep; (K;) i. q. ضَحْضَاحٌ; (S, O;) or the latter has a more general meaning, applying to little or much: (TA:) accord. to some, such that the bottom of it appears: (MF, TA:) or a small quantity of water in a source, or fountain, and in a well, and in a hot spring, and the like; or in a pool left by a torrent, and the like: or water little in quantity; or near in place: (TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَضْحَالٌ and [of mult.] ضُحُولٌ and ضِحَالٌ. (K.) b2: Hence, (S, O,) أَتَانُ الضَّحْلِ (S, O, K) i. e. A mass of rock of which part is covered by the water and part is protruding; (O;) expl. [more fully and variously] in art. اتن; (K;) so called because the water does not cover it by reason of its paucity. (S, O.) b3: [Hence also,] one says, إِنَّ خَيْرَكَ لَضَحْلٌ i. e. [(assumed tropical:) Verily thy goodness, or bounty, or beneficence, is] little. (TA.) غَدِيرٌ ضَاحِلٌ A pool, left by a torrent, the water of which has become shallow and has then gone away. (Sh, TA.) مَضْحَلٌ The place of a ضَحْل: (M, TA:) or a place in which is little water: (O, K:) the mirage (سَرَاب) is likened thereto: (TA:) pl. مَضَاحِلُ; (O, TA;) to which Ru-beh, (O,) or El-'Ajjáj, (TA,) likens clouds. (O, * TA.) ضحو and ضــحى 1 ضَحَا الطَّرِيقُ, (S, K,) aor. ـْ (S,) inf. n. ضَحْوٌ, (S, and so in the CK,) or ضُحُوٌّ, (so in other copies of the K and in the TA,) like عُلُوٌّ, thus accord. to ISd and IKtt, (TA,) and ضُــحِىٌّ, (TA as from the K, [but not in the CK nor in my MS. copy of the K,]) The road appeared, or became apparent, (S, K,) to a person: so says Az: (S:) [and so, app., signifies ضَــحِىَ, aor. ـْ for] As says, يُسْتَحَبُّ مِنَ الفَرَسِ أَنْ يَضْــحَى عِجَانُهُ i. e. [It is approved as a quality of the horse] that his عجان [q. v., a word variously expl.,] appear. (S, TA.) b2: ضَحِيَتِ اللّيْلَةُ The night was, or became, cloudless. (TA.) b3: ضَــحِىَ الفَرَسَ The horse was, or became, white. (TA.) b4: ظِلُّهُ ضَحَا (tropical:) He died: (K, TA:) it [properly] means his shade, or shadow, became sun: and when a man's shade, or shadow, becomes sun, he himself becomes nought. (IAmb, TA.) b5: And ضَحَا and ضَــحِىَ, aor. of each ـْ inf. n. ضَحْوٌ, (K, TA,) or, accord. to the M, ضُحُوٌّ, (TA,) and ضُــحِىٌّ, He, or it, was smitten by the sun; or the sun came, or fell, upon him, or it: (K, TA:) or ضَــحِىَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. ضَحًا; and ضَحَا, aor. ـْ inf. n. ضَحْوٌ and ضُحُوٌّ, he, or it, was smitten by the heat of the sun. (Ham p. 625.) Hence, in the Kur [xx. 117], لَا تَظْمَأُ فِيهَا وَلَا تَضْــحَى [Thou shalt not thirst. therein nor shalt thou be smitten by the sun]; i. e., thou shalt be preserved from the heat of the sun. (TA.) b6: And ضَحَا, inf. n. ضَحْوٌ and ضُحُوٌّ and ضُــحِىٌّ, He went forth to the sunshine; (K;) as also لِلشَّمْسِ ↓ استضــحى; (TA;) [and app. ↓ تضــحّى also; see Har p. 296, where, for النزول, in النزول للشمس as an explanation of التَّضَــحِّى, I think we should read البُرُوزُ:] or ضَحِيتُ لِلشَّمْسِ, inf. n. ضَحَآءٌ; and ضَحَيْتُ also; aor. of each ـْ I went forth to the sunshine. (S.) أَضْحِ [the imperative of ↓ أَضْــحَى] occurs in a trad., accord. to the relaters thereof: but As says that it is [correctly] اِضْحَ, with kesr to the ا and fet-h to the ح; from ضَحِيتُ; being a command to go forth to the sunshine. (S.) b7: And ضَــحِىَ, (S, K,) inf. n. ضَــحًى [or ضَحًا], He (a man, S) sweated. (S, K.) 2 ضَحَّيْنَاهُمْ is like صَبَّحْنَاهُمْ [i. e. it signifies We came to them in the time of the morning called الضُّــحَى]: (TA:) and ↓ ضاحاهُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. مُضَاحَاةٌ, is similar to غَادَاهُ and رَاوَحَهُ, meaning, (TA,) He came to him in the time called الضُّــحَى. (K, TA.) b2: ضــحّى الغَنَمَ He pastured the sheep, or goats, in the time called الضُّــحَى; (S, K, TA;) and in like manner, الإِبِلَ the camels. (TA.) And ضَحَّيْتُ الإِبِلَ عَنِ الوِرْدِ I pastured the camels with the [morning-pasture called] ↓ ضَحَآء, so that they might come to the water having satisfied themselves with food: and in like manner, عَشَّيْتُهَا عَنْهُ “ I pastured them with the [evening-pasture called] عَشَآء,” &c. (A, TA.) b3: [Hence,] ضَحَّيْتُهُ, inf. n. تَضْحِيَةٌ, I fed him in the time called الضُّــحَى: (K, TA:) or I fed him with the [morning-meal called] غَدَآء, at any time [of the morning]; but more commonly known as meaning, in the time called الضُّــحَى: and the verb primarily relates to camels [and sheep or goats]: or ضــحّى قَوْمَهُ means he fed his people, or party, with the [morning-meal called] غَدَآء; or he invited them [thereto, i. e.] to his ضَحَآء. (TA.) b4: IAth says, when the Arabs, in their journeying, or migrating, passed by a piece of land in which was herbage, one of them said, أَلَا ضَحُّوا رُوَيْدًا, meaning [Now] be ye gentle with the camels ↓ حَتَّى نَتَضَــحَّى i. e. in order that we may obtain of this herbage; then التَّضْحِيَةُ was applied to mean the being gentle in order that the camels may reach the place of alighting [app. in the morning] having satisfied themselves with food: and then ↓ تَضَــحَّى was said of anyone as meaning he ate in the time called [الضُّــحَى or] الضَّحَآء. (TA.) One says, ضَحَّيْتُ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ (assumed tropical:) I was gentle, or I acted gently, with the thing. (S.) And ضــحّى عَنِ الأَمْرِ (tropical:) He acted gently, or deliberately, in the affair: and so عَشَّى عَنْهُ. (A, TA.) And ضَحِّ رُوَيْدًا, (S, A, TA,) a prov., (A, TA,) meaning (tropical:) Hasten thou not; (S, TA;) from تَضْحِيَةُ الإِبِلِ عَنِ الوِرْدِ: [see the third sentence of this paragraph:] or meaning be thou patient a little while: (TA:) or the meaning is, slaughter thou, or sacrifice thou, [deliberately, leisurely, or] without haste: (Meyd:) [for] b5: ضــحّى, inf. n. تَضْحيَةٌ, signifies [also] He slaughtered, or sacrificed, the [victim termed] أُضْحِيَّة, in the time called الضُّــحَى: and hence, by reason of frequency of usage, he did so in any time of what are termed أَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ: (Msb:) and ضــحّىبِشَاةٍ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) or بِكَبْشٍ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ, (Mgh,) he slaughtered, or sacrificed, a sheep or goat, (S, Msb, K,) or a ram or other [victim], (Mgh,) in the time called الضُّــحَى (Mgh, K) of the day called يَوْمُ الأَضْــحَى; and afterwards said of him who has done so [at any time, even] in the last part of the [said] day. (Mgh.) A2: See also 4.
A3: and see 5.3 ضاحت البِلَدُ The countries, or lands, became exposed to the sun, and their herbage consequently dried up. (TA.) A2: ضاحاهُ: see 2, first sentence.4 اضــحى He (a man, TA) entered upon the time of morning called الضُّــحَى, (K, * TA,) or the time called الضَّحْوَة, (TA,) [or the time called الضَّحَآء, for] you say, أَقَمْتُ بِالمَكَانِ حَتَّى أَضْحَيْتُ, from الضَّحَآءُ [and therefore meaning I remained in the place until I entered upon the time called الضَّحَآء], like as you say أَصْبَحْتُ from الصَّبَاحُ. (S, TA.) Hence the saying of 'Omar, أَضْحُوا لِصَلَاةِ الضُّــحَى, (S,) or بِصَلَاةِ الضُّــحَى, (TA,) i. e. Perform ye the prayer of the time called الضــحى at its [proper] time: do not delay it until the time called الضَّحَآء has become advanced: (TA:) or do not perform that prayer when the time called الضُّــحَى has become advanced. (S.) b2: And you say, اضــحى فُلَانٌ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا, (S, M, K,) like as you say ظَلَّ يفعل كذا; (S;) meaning Such a one became occupied, or engaged, in the time called الضُّــحَى in doing such a thing: (M, K, TA:) or did such a thing in the first part of the day, (IKtt, TA.) b3: [This phrase often means also Such a one became occupied, or engaged, in doing such a thing; betook, set, or applied, himself to doing such a thing; set about, or commenced, doing such a thing; or began to do such a thing; like أَصْبَحَ and ظَلَّ &c. And, like these verbs, اضــحى followed by an aor. , or by a part. n. in the accus. case, often requires to be rendered simply He, or it, became: see an ex. in a verse cited voce دَفِئٌ.] b4: اضــحى also signifies He performed the supererogatory act of prayer (النَّافِلَة) in the time called الضُّــحَى. (TA.) b5: See also 1, last sentence but one. b6: One says also, اضــحى عَنِ الأَمْرِ, meaning (tropical:) He withdrew himself far from the affair. (TA. [See also another meaning of this phrase in what follows.]) And القَطا يُضْــحِى عَنِ المَآءِ (tropical:) The birds called قطا go far from water. (TA.) A2: اضــحى الشَّىْءَ He made apparent, showed, or revealed, the thing. (K, TA.) And عَنِ الأَمْرِ ↓ ضــحّى He made the affair, or case, apparent, or manifest: and [so اضــحى عَنْهُ, for] one says, أَضْحِ لِى عَنْ أَمْرِكَ, with fet-h to the ء, meaning Make manifest to me thy affair, or case: so in the M. (TA.) b2: لَا أَضْــحَى
اللّٰهُ لَنَا ظِلَّكَ is a deprecatory phrase [lit. May God not cause thy shadow to become sun to us: meaning (assumed tropical:) may God not deprive us of thee by death: (see ضَحَا ظِلُّهُ:) or it may be similar in meaning to the phrase here following]. (TA.) لَا تُضْحِنَا عَنْ ظِلِّكَ [lit. Make us not to go forth into the sun from thy shadow] means (assumed tropical:) withdraw not from us the shadow of thy compassion: the verb being made trans. by means of عن because the phrase implies the meaning of لَا تُخْرِجْنَا مِنْهُ: and ظلّ being here used metaphorically. (Har p. 4.) 5 تَضــحّى: see 1, latter half. b2: And see 2, in two places. It [generally] means He ate in the time of morning called الضُّــحَى: (K:) or he ate the [morning-meal called] غَدَآء; syn. تَغَدَّى: (S, TA:) and ↓ ضــحّى also has the former [or the latter] meaning. (ISd, TA.) 10 إِسْتَ1ْ2َ3َ see 1, latter half.
ضَحْوٌ: see the next paragraph.
ضُــحًى, also written ضُحًا, held by some to be of the measure فُعَلٌ, and by others to be [originally ضُحْوًى i. e.] of the measure فُعْلًى, of the former measure accord. to Mbr, and of the latter accord. to Th, (MF, TA,) [The early part of the forenoon, after sunrise: accord. to some, when the sun is yet low: accord. to others, when the sun is somewhat high:] i. q. ↓ ضَحْوَةٌ, accord. to most authorities: (MF, TA, and so in one place in the K:) or this latter signifies the period of the day after sunrise: (S:) or this signifies the advanced state of the day (اِرْتِفَاعُ النَّهَارِ [which is said by the doctors of the law in the present day to mean when the sun has risen the measure of a رُمْح, q. v., or more]); as also ↓ ضَحْوٌ and ↓ ضَحِيَّةٌ: (K:) and the ضُــحَى is after the ضَحْوَة (S, K) a little, (K,) when the sun shines brightly: (S:) or from sunrise to the time when the day is advanced and very white: thus in the M: (TA:) or it is the spreading of the sun [upon the earth], and the extending of the day: and the time [thereof] is thus named: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or ضُــحًى is pl. of ↓ ضَحْوَةٌ, like as قُرًى is of قَرْيَةٌ; and its sing. is like ↓ ضَحَآءٌ, which means the extending of the day, and is of the masc. gender, as though a name of the time [thereof]: then ضُــحًى became used as a sing., and the time was thus called: (Msb:) it is fem. and masc.: (S, K: *) he who makes it fem. holds it to be pl. of ↓ ضَحْوَةٌ; and he who makes it masc. holds it to be [a sing.] noun of the measure فُعَلٌ, like صُرَدٌ and نُغَرٌ: (S:) its dim. is ↓ضُــحَىٌّ, without ة; (Fr, Msb, K;) for they disapproved the affixing the ة lest it should be confounded with the dim. of ضَحْوَةٌ. (Fr, Msb.) Using it as an adv. noun, you say, لَقِيتُهُ ضُــحَى, when you mean [I met him] in the ضــحى of this day; without tenween. (S, TA.) See also ضَحْوَةٌ. [See also De Sacy's Chrest. Ar., sec. ed., i. 162-167, respecting the prayer that is performed in the time thus called, i. e. the prayer termed صَلَاةُ الضُّــحَى, mentioned above, voce أَضْــحَى.] b2: Also The sun: (M, Msb, K:) because of its appearing in the time thus called. (M, TA.) One says, اِرْتَفَعَتِ الضَّــحَى, meaning The sun became high. (Msb.) b3: and ضُــحَى الشَّمْسِ The light of the sun: thus is expl. xci. 1. of the Kur. (TA.) b4: مَا لِكَلَامِهِ ضُــحًى means (assumed tropical:) His speech, or language, has no perspicuity: thus in the M and K: but in the A, ↓ أَنْشَدَنِى شَعْرًا لَيْسَ فِيهِ حَلَاوَةٌ وَلَا ضَحَآءٌ i. e. [He recited to me poetry] in which was no [sweetness nor] plainness of meaning. (TA.) ضَحْوَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places. You say, أَتَيْتُكَ ضَحْوَةً, meaning [I came to thee] in a [time called] ↓ ضُــحًى [or rather ضَحْوَة], (K, * TA,) with tenween, unless you mean of this day [in which case you say ضَحْوَةٌ, without tenween, like as you say in the latter case ضُــحَى]. (TA.) ضَحْيَا and ضَحْيَآءُ fems. of أَضْــحَى [q. v.].
