(T, S, A. *) And they say, in a proverb, بِجَارُهَا نَارُهَا (T, S) Their origin is indicated by their mark with which they are burned. (T.) The Rájiz says, حَتَّى سَقَوْا آبَالَهُمْ بِالنَّارِ وَالنَّارُ قَدْ تَشْفِى مِنَ الأُوَارِ [Until, or so that, they watered their camels because of the brand that they bore: for the fire, or the brand, sometimes cures of the heat of thirst]: (T, S: *) he means, that, when they saw their marks with which they were burned, they left the water to them.

(TA.) As نور is a convenience of the pious in the present world and the world to come, it is said in the Kur, [lvii. 13,] اُنْظُرُونَا نَقْتَبِسْ مِنْ نُورِكُمْ [Wait ye for us that we may take of your light]. (B.) [See also ظُلَمْةٌ.] b2: It is also applied to Mohammad: (T, M, K:) it is said by Aboo-Is-hak to be so applied in the Kur, v. 18. (T.) b3: And That which manifests things, (K, TA,) and shows to the eyes their true or real state: and therefore النُّور is applied in the Kur, vii.

156, to (tropical:) that [revelation] which the Prophet brought. (TA.) b4: النُّورُ is also one of the names of God; meaning, accord. to IAth, He by whose light the obscure in perception sees, and by whose guidance the erring is directed aright: or the Manifest, by whom is every manifestation. And أَللّٰهُ نُورُ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ [in the Kur, xxiv. 35,] means God is the enlightener of the heavens and of the earth: like as فُلَانٌ غِيَاثُنَا means مُغِيثُنَا: (TA:) or, as some say, the right director of the inhabitants of the heavens and of the inhabitants of the earth.

(TA.) [Hence the saying,] إِنْ رُمْتَ المُحَاجَزَهْ فَقَبْلَ المُنَاجَزَهْ [If thou desire the reciprocal prevention of fighting, and the making of peace, let it be before fighting]: (A:) or المُحَاجَزَهْ قَبْلَ المُنَاجَزَهْ (S, K) [the reciprocal prevention of fighting, and] the making of peace, [should be] before the striving together, (المُعَالَجَة, as in the CK,) or hastening, (المُعَالَجَة, as in some copies of the K and in the TA, and, accord. to the latter, المُسَارَعَة,) in fighting: (K, TA:) a proverb: (S, TA:) relating to the prudence of him who hastens to flee from him whom he has not power to withstand: (K:) or applied to him who seeks peace after fighting.

(Msb.) [Hence the saying,] أَنْجَزَ حُرٌّ مَا وَعَدَ (S, K) An ingenuous man fulfils what he promises: a proverb: (TA:) alluding to the fulfilment of a promise: and sometimes, to the asking, or demanding, the fulfilment thereof: El-Hárith the son of 'Amr said to Sakhr the son of Nahshal, “ Shall I guide thee to booty and one fifth of it be for me? ” and he answered, “Yes: ” so he guided him to some people from El-Yemen, and Sakhr made a sudden attack upon them, and engaged with them in conflict, and overcame, and obtained booty; and when he turned back, El-Hárith said to him the above words, and Sakhr fulfilled his promise to him. (K.) b3: انجز عَلَى القَتِيلِ He hastened and completed, or made certain, the slaughter of the slain man; i. q. أَجْهَزَ عَلَيْهِ. (Abu-l-Mikdám Es-Sulamee and K.) 5 تَنَجَّزَ see 10, in five places.6 تَنَاْجَزَ see 3.10 استنجز حَاجَتَهُ, and ↓ تنجّزها, He sought, or asked, or demanded, the accomplishment of his want, from him who had promised him; (Msb;) syn. إِسْتَنْجَحَهَا.

(TA.) Hence, البَرَاآتِ ↓ تَنَجُّزُ The demanding and receiving of immunities. (Mgh.) You say also, إِسْتَنْجَزْتُ مِنْهُ كِتَابًا, and تَنَجَّزْتُهُ, [app. meaning, I sought, or asked, or demanded, of him the finishing, or completion, of a writing, or letter, or book.] (A.) نَجْزٌ and ↓ نُجْزٌ are syn.

(S.) And لَا يُبَاعُ غَائِبٌ بِنَاجِزٍ, meaning, A debt to be paid at a future time shall not be sold for ready money. (Mgh.) And نَاجِزٌ بِنَاجِزٍ is a proverb, [meaning Ready merchandise with ready money,] like يَدٌ بِيَدٍ, and عَاجِلٌ بِعَاجِلٍ. (TA.) It is said in a trad., بِيعُوا حَاضِرًا بِنَاجِزٍ [Sell ye present merchandise for ready money]. (S.) And a poet ('Abeed Ibn-El-Abras, TA, art. كلأ,) says, وَإِذَا تُبَاشِرُكَ الهُمُو مُ فَإِنَّهَا كَالٍ وَنَاجِزْ (S, TA, ubi supra;) [And when griefs attend thee, know that] they are, some, debts to be payed at future periods, and some, payments in ready money. (TA, ubi supra.) The saying [of 'Abd-Allah Ibn-'Ámir El-Kurashee, owner of a horse named Esh-Shamoos, (TA, art. شمس,)]

جَرْىَ الشَّمُوسِ نَاجِزًا بِنَاجِزِ [app. meaning, Quickly as the running of EshShamoos; ready with ready, or prompt with prompt;] is explained by IAar, as meaning, Thou hast given an evil recompense and I have recompensed thee in like manner: or, as he says in one place, this is said when one does a thing and thou dost the like thereof; he not being able to go beyond thee in word or in deed. (TA.) [Respecting this saying, Freytag says, in his Arab. Prov., i. 305, (where, for نَاجِزًا we find نَاجِزٌ,) that it applies to him who is equal to the execution of the things which he undertakes, as well good as bad: and that جَرَى is to be supplied before جَرْىَ.]

(A, TA.) and تَعْسًا لَهُ وَنُكْسًا, and sometimes one says, نَكْسًا, (S, K,) in this case, (S,) for the sake of mutual resemblance, (S, K,) or because نَكْسًا is a dial form [of نُكْسًا], (S,) [meaning, (assumed tropical:) May he fall upon his face, or the like, (see art. تعس,) and relapse into disease: or] may he fall upon his face, and not rise after his fall until he fall a second time: and in like manner you say, ↓ تَعَسَ وَانْتَكَسَ.

(TA.) And نَعَشَكَ اللّٰهُ (tropical:) May God restore thee from poverty to wealth, or competence, or sufficiency: or make thee to continue in life; preserve thee alive. (A.) and ↓ انعشهُ (assumed tropical:) He set him up, and strengthened his heart. (TA.) And الرَّبِيعُ يُنْعشُ النَّاسَ (tropical:) (A, TA,) [The spring, or spring-herbage, or the season, or rain, called الربيع,] makes men to live and enjoy plenty of herbage or the like. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] نَعَشَ المَيِّتَ, (Sh, K,) aor. as above, (Sh,) and so the inf. n. (TA) (tropical:) He eulogized, or praised, the dead man, (Sh, K,) and exalted his praise, or fame, or honour. (Sh.) b4: نَعَشُوا المَيِّتَ also signifies They carried the dead man upon the نَعْش, q. v. (A [where this signification is indicated, but not expressed: it is shown, however, by an explanation of pass. part. n. (q. v. infra) in the TA.]) b5: نُعِشَ عَلَى جِنَارَتِهَا A نَعْش [q. v.] was made for her bier. (Mgh, from a trad. of, or relating to, Fátimeh.) 2 نَعّشهُ: see 1.

A2: Also, (K,) or نعّش لَهُ, (S,) inf. n. تَنْعِيشٌ, (K,) He said to him نَعَشَكَ اللّٰهُ [which see above, in 1, and also below, in 8]: (S, K:) in [some copies of] the S, نَعَّشَكَ الله. (TA.) 4 أَنْعَشَ see 1, in four places.8 انتعش He rose; or became raised, or lifted up: (TA:) he rose after his stumble, or trip: (S, A, Msb, K:) and in like manner you say of a bird, (A, TA,) meaning it rose [after falling or alighting], (TA,) and he raised his head. (TA.) Hence the saying, تَعَسَ فَلا انْتَعَشَ May he fall, having stumbled, or stumble and fall, and not rise [again]: a form of imprecation. (TA.) and hence the saying of 'Omar, اِنْتَعِشْ نَعَشَكَ اللّٰهُ Rise thou: may God raise thee: or نعشك اللّٰه has here one of the two meanings assigned to it before, in 1. (TA.) b2: [And hence,] (tropical:) He recovered, or became recovered, from his embarrassment, or difficulty. (A, TA.) نَعْشٌ A state of elevation, or exaltation. (Sh.) See 1. b2: A state of remaining; lastingness; endurance; permanence; or continuance; syn. بَقَآءٌ. (Sh, K.) A2: [A kind of litter, or] a thing resembling a مِحَفَّة, upon which the king used to be carried. when sick: (IDrd, Msb, K:) not the نَعْش of a corpse. (IDrd, Msb.) This is said to be the primary application. (TA) b2: And hence, (TA,) A bier, (S, A, Msb, K,) when the corpse is upon it. for otherwise it is called سرِيرٌ: (S, IAth, Msb:) it is called by the former name because of its height, or its being raised: (S, TA.) pl. نُعُوشٌ: (Msb:) also, a reticulated thing. (Az. Mgh, TA,) resembling a محَفّة, (Mgh,) which is put as a cover over a [dead] woman when she is placed upon the bier; (Az, Mgh, TA;) but this is properly called حَرَجٌ, though people called is نَعْشٌ, which is properly only the bier itself. (Az, TA.) b3: [And hence,] بَنَاتُ نَعْشِ الكُبْرَى [or بَنَاتُ نَعْشَ الكُبْرَى, together with نَعْشٌ or نَعْشُ, constitute (assumed tropical:) The constellation of Ursa Major: or the principal stars thereof:] seven stars; whereof four [which are in the body] are called نَعْشٌ [or نَعْشُ], and three [which are in the tail] are called بَناتٌ, (S, K,) i. e., بنات نعش (TA:) and to like manner الصُّغْرَى, (K,) or بنات نعش الصُّغْرَى

[together with نعش الصُّغْرَى constitute [the constellation of Ursa Minor: or the principal stars thereof; seven in number; whereof the four in the body are called نعش, and the there in the tail are called بنات]: (S:) [the former four] said to be likened to the bearers of a bier, because they form a square: (IDrd, TA:) [the بنات being so called as being likened to damsels or to men for بنات is pl. of اِبْنٌ applied to an irrational thing as well as pl. of بِنْتٌ) following a bier:] Sb and Fr agree that نعش is imperfectly decl. because determinate and of the fem. gender: (S:) or it is perfectly decl. when indeterminate, but not when determinate [by having the epithet الكُبْرَى or الصُّغْرَى

added to it]: (Aboo-'Amr Ez-Záhid, K:) بَنو نَعْشِ also occurs, in poetry; (Sb, S, K;) because a single one [of the stars thereof] is called ابْنُ نَعْشِ, (Lth, K,) being made to accord. in gender with كَوْكَبٌ; but when they say ثَلَاث or أَرْبَع, they say بَنَات: (Lth, TA:) [this is agreeable with a general rule; accord. to which, بَنَاتٌ is the pl. of اِبْنٌ applied to anything but a human being:] the pl. of بنات نعش is النَّوَاعِشُ; like as أَبَارِصُ is pl. of سَامُّ أَبَرَصَ. (L, TA.) See also نُعَيْشٌ. b4: Also نَعْشٌ A piece of wood, (K, TA,) of the length of twice the stature of a man, (TA,) upon the head of which is a piece of rag, (K, TA,) called حَرَجٌ, (TA,) with which young ostriches are hunted or captured. (K, TA.) نُعَيْشٌ [or نُعَيْشُ (assumed tropical:) The small star called] السُّهَى, which is [by the star (??)] in the middle of بَنَات نَعْش.

So in the saying, هُوَ أَخْفَى مِنْ نُعَيْش فِى بَنَاتِ نَعْش [He, or it, is more obscure than No'eysh among the Bená Naash]. (A, TA.) النَّوَاعِشُ: see نَعْشٌ, near the end.

مَنْعُوشٌ A corpse carried upon a نَعْش, or bier. (S, A, * Msb.)
