(MA.) b3: [Golius assigns to دال, with دَوْلَةٌ for its inf. n., as on the authority of the S and KL, two significations app. from two meanings of دَوْلَةٌ, one of which he seems to have misunderstood, and to neither of which do I find any corresponding verb: they are “ Obivit alter alterum in bello: ” and “ superior evasit. ” There are many inf. ns. that have no corresponding verbs.] b4: دال, aor. ـُ (T, K,) inf. n. دَوْلٌ and دَالَةٌ, (K,) or دَوْلَةٌ, (T,) He became notorious [either in a bad or in a good sense]; expl. by صَارَ شُهْرَةً, (IAar, T, K,) i. e. مَشْهُورًا. (TK.) b5: دال الثَّوْبُ, aor. ـُ The garment, or piece of cloth, was, or became, old, and worn out. (Az, S.) [Hence,] جَعَلَ وُدُّهُ يَدُولُ (tropical:) His love, or affection, was beginning to become, or at the point of becoming, worn out. (Az, S, TA.) b6: See also 7.2 دوّل He wrote a د. (TA.) 3 داول, [inf. n. مُدَاوَلَةٌ,] He made to come round [by turns, or to be by turns]: hence the saying in the Kur [iii. 134], و تِلْكَ الْأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ And those days, we make them to come round [by turns] to men: (S, * K, * TA:) or this means, we dispense them by turns to men; (Bd, Jel;) to these one time, and to these another; (Bd;) or one day to one party, and one day to another. (Jel.) You say, دَاوَلْتُ الشَّىْءَ بَيْنَهُمْ

↓ فَتَدَاوَلُوهُ [I dispensed the thing among them by turns, and they had, or received, or took, it by turns]. (Bd on the passage of the Kur quoted above.) مُدَاوَلَةٌ also signifies The giving a turn of fortune, or good fortune. (KL. [See what next follows.]) 4 ادالهُ, (M, K,) inf. n. إِدَالَةٌ, (T, TA,) [signifying He gave him a turn of good fortune, or a turn to prevail over another in war, &c.,] is from الدَّوْلَةُ. (T, M, K, TA. [See what next precedes.]) Hence, [in the CK from الدُّولَة,] the saying, أَدَالَنَا اللّٰهُ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا [God gave us, or may God give us, a turn to prevail over our enemy]. (S, K.) And أَدَالَكَ اللّٰهُ مِنْ عَدُوِّكَ and عَلَى عَدُوِّكَ, i. e. جَعَلَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِ دَوْلَةً [May God appoint thee, or give thee, a turn to prevail over thine enemy]. (Ham p. 547.) And ادال اللّٰهُ زَيْدًا مِنْ عَمْرٍو [God gave to Zeyd a turn to have the superiority over 'Amr;] i. e. God took away the turn of good fortune, or the good fortune, (الدولة,) from

'Amr, and gave it to Zeyd. (Har p. 118.) Hence, also, (TA,) El-Hajjáj said, إِنَّ الأَرْضَ سَتُدَالُ مِنَّا كَمَا أُدِلْنَا مِنْهَا [Verily the earth will be given (?) turn to prevail over us, like as we have been given a turn to prevail over it]; (Lth, T, TA;) meaning that it will consume us, like as we have consumed [of] it. (T, TA.) and [hence] إِدَالَةٌ signifies غَلَبَةٌ [or Victory]: (S, K:) or [rather], as some say, it signifies نُصْرَةٌ [i. e. aid against an enemy]: (Har ubi suprà:) you say, اَللّٰهُمَ أَدِلْنِى عَلَى فُلَانٌ O God, aid me against such a one. (S, and Har ubi suprà. [In the former, وَانْصُرْنِىعَلَيْهِ, as an explicative adjunct: in the latter, اى نصِّرنى عليه, for انْصُرْنِى.]) 6 تَدَاوَلُوهُ They took it, or had it, by turns. (S, Msb, K. See 3.) You say, تَدَاوَلْنَا الأَمْرَ We took [or did] the affair by turns. (M.) and تَدَاوَلْنَا العَمَلَ وَ الأَمْرَبَيْنَنَا We did the work, and the thing, or affair, by turns, among us. (T.) And تَدَاوَلُوا البَاطِلَ They took it by turns to say, or to do, that which was false, wrong, vain, futile, or the like; syn. تَبَطَّلُوا بَيْنَهُمْ. (Az and K in art. بطل.) And تَدَاوَلَتْهُ الأَيْدِى The hands took it by turns. (S.) And تَدَاوَلَتِ الرِّيَاحُ رَسْمَ الدَّارَ The winds blew by turns upon, or over, the remains that marked the site of the house [so as to efface them]; one time from the south, and another time from the north, and another time from the east, and another time from the west. (Az, TA in art. عور.) And, of a thing, you say, يُتَدَاوَلُ (T) or يُتَدَاوَلُ بِهِ (S) [meaning It is taken, or done, by turns]. And تُدُوْوِلَتِ الأَرْضُ بِالرَّعْىِ [The land was pastured on by turns]. (S and K in art. وظب.) [تَدَاوَلُوهُ also signifies They made frequent use of it; i. e., used it time after time, or turn after turn; namely, a word or phrase: but perhaps in this sense it is postclassical: see an ex. in De Sacy's “ Chrest. Arabe,” sec. ed., p. 141 of the Arabic text.] And تَدَاوَلَتِ الأَشْيَآءُ The things alternated; or succeeded one another by turns, one taking the place of another: (L in art. نسخ:) and [in like manner] الأَزْمَنَةُ [the times]. (Msb and K in that art.) [See also 6 in art دفو.]7 اندال القَوْمُ The people, or party, removed, or shifted, from one place to another. (S.) b2: اندال مَا فِىبَطْنِهِ What was in his belly, (M, K,) of intestines or peritonæum, (M,) came forth, (M, K,) in consequence of its being pierced. (M.) b3: And اندال It (the belly) became wide, and near, or approaching, to the ground. (M, K.) Also (K) It (the belly) was, or became, flaccid, flabby, or pendulous; (S, O, K;) and so ↓ دَالَ. (K.) b4: And It (a thing) dangled, or moved to and fro; and hung. (M, K.) دَالٌ One of the letters of the alphabet, (د,) the place of utterance of which is near to that of ت: masc. and fem.; so that you say دَالٌ حَسَنٌ and حَسَنَةٌ [a beautiful د]: the pl. is أَدْوَالٌ if masc., and دَالَاتٌ [if fem.; the latter the more common]. (TA.) A2: Also A fat woman. (Kh, TA.) A3: See also دَالَةٌ.

دَوْلٌ an inf. n. of دَالَ in senses explained above. (K, KL.) A2: Also i. q. دَلْوٌ [A bucket]: (K:) [an arabicized word from the Pers\. دُولْ: or] formed from دَلْوٌ by transposition. (TA.) دَوَلٌ, as an epithet applied to نَبْلٌ [or arrows] i. q. ↓ مُتَدَاوَلٌ. (IAar, M, K. *) So in the saying, يُلُوذُ بِالجَوْدِ مِنَ النَّبْلِ الدَّوَلْ [app. relating to a wild animal, and meaning. He seeks, or takes, refuge in the copious rain from the arrows received in turns by one after another of the herd]. (IAar, M.) A2: See also دَوْلَةٌ.

دَالَةٌ i. q. شُهْرَةٌ [Notoriousness, &c.]: pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] ↓ دَالٌ. (IAar, T, K.) b2: [Accord. to the K, it is also an inf. n.: see 1.]

دَوْلَةٌ A turn, mutation, change, or vicissitude, of time, or fortune, (K, TA,) from an unfortunate and evil, to a good and happy, state or condition; (TA;) [i. e.,] relating to good; as دَبْرَةٌ, on the contrary, relates to evil: (As, T and M in art. دبر:) [therefore meaning a turn of good fortune; a favourable turn of fortune: or] good fortune [absolutely]: (KL:) a happy state or condition, that betides a man: (MF:) [also] a turn which comes to one or which one takes [in an absolute sense]; syn. نَوْبَةٌ: (K in art. نوب:) and [particularly] (K) a turn (عُقْبَةٌ) [to share] in wealth, and [to prevail] in war; as also ↓ دُولَةٌ: ('Eesà Ibn-'Omar, * T, * S, * M, K: *) or each is a subst. [in an absolute sense, app. as meaning a turn of taking, or having, a thing,] from تَدَاوَلُوا الشَّىْءَ signifying “ they took, or had, the thing by turns: ” (Msb:) or ↓ دُولَةٌ is in wealth; and دَوْلَةٌ is in war; (Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà, T, S, M, Msb, K;) this latter being when one of two armies defeats the other and then is defeated; (Fr, T;) or when one party is given a turn to prevail (تُدَال) over the other: one says, كَانَتْ لَنَا عَلَيْهِمُ الدَّوْلَةُ فِى الحَرْبِ [The turn to prevail over them in war was ours]: (S:) and قَدْ رَجَعَتِ الدَّوْلَةُ عَلَى هٰؤُلَآءِ [The turn to prevail against these returned]; as though meaning المَرَّةُ: so says Fr: but ↓ دُولَةٌ, he says, is in religions and institutions that are altered and changed with time: (T:) accord. to Zj, (T,) or A'Obeyd, (so in two copies of the S,) ↓ دُولَةٌ signifies a thing that is taken by turns; and دَوْلَةٌ, the act [of taking by turns]; (T, S;) and a transition from one state, or condition, to another: (T: [in this last sense, app. an inf. n.: see 1, third sentence:]) you say, بَيْنَهُمْ ↓ صَارَ الفَىْءُ دُولَةً, meaning [The فىء (or spoil, &c.,) became] a thing taken by turns among them: (S:) and the saying, in the Kur [lix. 7], بَيْنَ الأَغْنِيَآءِ مِنْكُمْ ↓ كَىْ لَا يَكُونَ دُولَةً means That it may not be a thing taken by turns [among the rich of you]: (T:) or دَوْلَةٌ relates to the present life or world; and ↓ دُولَةٌ, to that which is to come: (M, K:) and it is said that the former of these two words signifies prevalence, predominance, mastery, or victory; and ↓ the latter, the transition of wealth, blessing, or good, from one people, or party, to another: (TA:) the pl. (of دَوْلَةٌ, S, Msb) is دَوِلٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) like as قِصَعٌ is pl. of قَصْعَةٌ, (Msb,) and (of ↓ دُولَةٌ, T, S, Msb), دُوَلٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and دُولَاتٌ, (S, TA,) and ↓ دَوَلٌ (M, K) is [a quasi-pl. n.] of both, because, as IJ says, دَوْلَةٌ is regarded as though it were originally دُولَةٌ. (M.) b2: [In post-classical works, it signifies also A dynasty: and a state, an empire, or a monarchy.]

A2: Also The حَوْصَلَة [or stomach of a bird; its triple stomach: or only its first stomach; the crop, or craw]: because of its اِنْدِيَال [or flaccidity]. (Ibn-'Abbaád, K.) And The قَانِصَة [which may here mean the same as the حوصلة, for this is one of the meanings assigned to it, and this explanation of دولة is not given by Ibn-'Abbád: or it may here mean the intestines, of a bird, into which the food passes from the stomach: or the gizzard]. (K.) b2: And The شِقْشِقَة [or faucial bag of the he-camel]. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) b3: And A thing like a مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag] with a narrow mouth. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) b4: And The side of the belly. (K.) [But] accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, مَا أَعْظَمَ دَوْلَةَ بَطْنِهِ meansHow large is his navel! (TA.) دوُلَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in nine places: b2: and see also what next follows, in two places.

دُوَلَةٌ (T, S, K) and ↓ دِوَلَةٌ (Ibn-'Abbád, TA) [and ↓ دُولَةٌ, as appears from what follows]; as also تُوَلَةٌ (T, S) [and تِوَلَةٌ and تُوَلةٌ]; A calamity, or misfortune: (T, Ibn-'Abbád, S, K:) pl. دُوَلَاتٌ (S) and دِوَلَاتٌ and دُوَلَاتٌ. (Ibn-'Abbád, TA.) You say, جَآءَ بِدُوَلَاتِهِ (S) [and ↓ بِدِوَلَاتِهِ] and ↓ بِدُولَاتِهِ (Ibn-'Abbad, TA) and ↓ بِدُولَاهُ, as also بِتُولَاهُ, (Aboo-Málik, K,) He, or it, came with, or brought, or brought to pass, his, or its, calamities, or misfortunes: (Ibn-'Abbád, S, K. *) دِوَلَةٌ: and جَآءَبِدَوَلَاتِهِ: see دُوَلَةٌ.

جَآءَ بِدُولَاهُ: see دُوَلَةٌ.

دَوِيلٌ A plant that is a year old, (S, M, K,) and dry: (M, K:) or two years old, (Az, K,) and worthless: (Az, TA:) or especially what is dry of the [plants called] نَصِىّ and سَبَط: (M, K, * TA:) or any plant broken and black. (TA.) دَوَالِىُّ A sort of grapes of Et-Táïf, (M, K,) black inclining to redness. (M.) [See also دَوَالٍ, in art. دلو.]

دَوَالَيْكَ i. q. مُدَاوَلَةً, [in the CK, erroneously, مُتَداوَلَةً,] used in an imperative sense [with its verb and the objective complement thereof understood before it, and thus meaning دَاوِلِ الفِعْلَ مُدَاوَلَةً Make thou the action to come round, or to be, by turns]: (M, K:) or it may be rendered as meaning that the thing happened in this manner [i. e. the action being made to come round, or to be, by turns]: (Sb, M:) or it means تَدَاوُلٌ بَعْدَ تَدَاوُل [i. e. a taking, or doing, (a thing) by turn after (another's) doing so, and may be rendered virtually in the same manner as above, i. e. let the action be done by turns: or the action being done by turns]: (S, O, K: [in the PS, تَدَاوُلًا بَعْدَ تَدَاوُلٍ, which better explains the two manners in which it is said to be used:]) IAar says that it is an invariable expression, like حَجَازَيْكَ and هَذَاذَيْكَ; and is from the phrase تَدَاوَلُوا الأَمْرَ بَيْنَهُمْ, said of persons when this takes a turn and this a turn. (T, TA.) 'Abd-Beni-l- Has-hás says, إِذَ شُقَّ بُرْدٌ شُقَّ بِالبُرْدِ مِثْلُهُ دَوَالَيْكَ حَتَّى لَيْسَ لِلْبُرْدِ لَابِسُ [When a burd (a kind of garment) is rent, the like thereof is rent with the burd, the action being done by turns, so that there is no wearer of the burd; it having been rent so as to fall off]: (S:) the poet is speaking of a man's rending the clothing of a woman to see her person, and her rending his also. (T, TA. [This verse is related with several variations: see another reading of it voce هَذَاذَيْكَ, in art. هذ; with another explanation of it.]) b2: Ibn-Buzurj says, (T,) sometimes the article ال is prefixed to it, so that one says الدَّوَالَيْكَ, (T,) meaning One's walking with an elegant and a proud and self-conceited gait, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side, (T,) or one's urging, or pressing forward, and striving, (أَنْ يَتَحَفَّزَ, [in the CK, erroneously, ان يَتَحَفَّزَ,]) in his gait, or pace, (K,) when he moves about his shoulder-joints, and parts his legs widely, in walking. (T, K,* TA. In the copies of the K, جال [or جاءك] is erroneously put for حَاكَ, the reading in the T, TA. [The author of the TK follows the reading جال; and has fallen into several other evident mistakes in explaining this expression; which is itself, in my opinion, when with the article ال, a mistake for الدَّوَالِيْكُ, mentioned in art. دلك.]) A poet uses the phrase يَمْشِى الدَّوَالَيْكَ as meaning Walking, or going, in the manner explained above: (Ibn-Buzurj, T and TA in the present art.:) or يَمْشِى الدَّوَالِيكَ. (TA in art. دلك.) مُنْدَالٌ as meaning Dangling, or moving to and fro; and hanging; is said by Seer to be of the measure مُنْفَعِلٌ from التَّدَلَّى, and formed by transposition; and if so, it has no inf. n.; for the word that is formed by transposition has no inf. n. (M. [But for this assertion I see no satisfactory reason.]) مُتَدَوَالٌ: see دَوَلٌ. b2: [الكَلَامُ المُتَدَاوَلُ signifies, in modern Arabic, The language commonly used.]

دسم

1 دَسِمَ, (S, M, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. دَسَمٌ, (Msb, TA,) or دُسُومَةٌ, (Mgh, in which the verb is not mentioned,) It (a thing, S, M, Mgh, or food, Msb) was, or became, greasy; or had in it, or upon it, grease, or gravy, or dripping of flesh-meat or of fat; (M, K, * Mgh;) as also ↓ تدسّم: (M:) and it (a garment, or some other thing,) was, or became, dirty, or filthy. (K.) b2: And دَسِمَ, (inf. n. دَسَمٌ, TK,) He, or it, was, or became, of the colour termed دُسْمَة, i. e., dust-colour inclining to blackness. (M, K.) A2: دَسَمَ, (Z, K, and so in some copies of the S,) [aor., app., دَسِمَ,] inf. n. دَسْمٌ; (TA;) or ↓ دسّم; (so in some copies of the S;) said of rain, It moistened the earth (S, Z, K) a little, (K,) not much, (S,) or so as not to reach the moist soil. (Z, TA.) b2: And دَسَمَ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. دَسْمٌ, (TA,) He smeared a camel with tar. (K.) b3: Also, (S, M, K,) aor. ـُ (S, K, *) or ـِ (M,) inf. n. دَسْمٌ, (S, M,) He stopped up (S, M, K) a thing, (M,) such as a wound, (S, M,) and an ear, (S,) and a flask, or bottle; as also ↓ ادسم; (K;) or دَسَمَ القَارُورَةَ signifies شَدَّ رأْسَهَا [i. e. he bound the head of the flask, or bottle: or the right reading, as the context seems to indicate, is سَدَّ رَأْسَهَا i. e. he stopped up the head of the flask, or bottle]; (M;) and دَسَمَ الجُرْحَ he put the tent (الفَتِيلَ) into the wound. (TA.) b4: and hence, i. e. from دَسَمَ الجُرْحَ or from دَسَمَ القَارُورَةَ, (TA,) (tropical:) Inivit feminam. (Kr, M, K, TA.) and hence also,] one says to the مُسْتَحاَضَة, [see this word,] اُدْسُمِى وَصَلِّى (assumed tropical:) [Stuff thy vagina with cotton, to arrest the blood, and say thy prayers]. (TA.) b5: Also, (K,) inf. n. دَسْمٌ, (TA,) He closed, or locked, a door; syn. أَغْلَقَ. (K.) A3: Also, (i. e. دَسَمَ,) i. q. طَسَمَ, [in some copies of the K, and in the TA, طَمَسَ, which signifies the same, i. e. It became effaced, or obliterated,] said of a relic, trace, mark, or the like. (S, K.) 2 تَدْسِيمٌ, (S,) inf. n. of دسّم, (Msb,) signifies The smearing (S, Msb) a thing, (S,) or a morsel, or mouthful, (Msb,) [or seasoning it, imbuing it, or soaking it,] with دَسَم [i. e. grease, or gravy, or dripping]. (S, Msb.) b2: دَسِّمُوا نُونَتَهُ, (Mgh, K,) said by 'Othmán respecting a beautiful boy, (Mgh,) means Blacken ye his dimple in the chin, in order that the evil eye may not have effect upon it. (Mgh, K. *) [Accord. to another explanation, mentioned in the TA, the blackness denoted by this phrase is behind the ear: but this is evidently a mistake.] b3: See also 1.4 أَدْسَمَ see 1.5 تَدَسَّمَ see 1. b2: تدسّموا also signifies They ate [food] with دَسَم [i. e. grease, or gravy, or dripping] دَسَم (TA.) دَسْمٌ: see دَسَمٌ.

A2: أَنَا عَلَى دَسْمِ الأَمْرِ meansعلى طَرَفٍ مِنْهُ [app. I am beside, or out of, the case, or affair]. (K.) دَسَمٌ a word of well-known meaning; (S;) i. q. وَدَكٌ; (M, K;) both signifying Grease, or gravy; i. e. the dripping that exudes from flesh-meat and from fat; (Msb in art. ودك;) the وَدَك of flesh-meat and of fat: (Mgh: [in the CK, الوَرَكُ is erroneously put for الوَدَكُ:]) or, accord. to the T, anything that has وَدَك, of flesh-meat and of fat: (TA:) and dirt, or filth: (M, K:) and ↓ دَسْمٌ signifies the same as دَسَمٌ, accord. to El-Kurtubee; but El-Welee El-'Irákee says, I have not seen this on the authority of any other lexicologist. (TA.) You say, يَدُهُ مِنَ الدَّسَمِ سَلِطَةٌ [app. meaning, if correctly transcribed, His hand is hard by reason of dirt adhering to it: in my MS. copy of the K, the last word is written سَطِلَةٌ; a word which I do not find in any sense: in the TK, سطلة: this Freytag thinks to be the right reading, though I know of no such word; and he renders the phrase, “manus ejus propter sordes inhaerentes catinus est; ” evidently assuming that سطلة is a dial. var. of سَطْلٌ]. (K.) [It seems that you say also, مَا فِيهِ دَسَمٌ meaning (assumed tropical:) There is not in him, or it, any profit, or good: a sense assigned in the TA to the phrase ما فيه ديسم دسم; in which I think it evident that the transcriber has written ديسم by mistake, and forgotten to erase it after adding دسم.) b2: Also The bowels, or intestines. (TA.) A2: Accord. to IAar, it means also كَثِيرُ الذِّكْرِ [Praising, or glorifying, God, much]; a sense in which it is incorrectly said in the K to be ↓ دَسِيمٌ, like أَمِيرٌ: (TA:) and hence the trad., of weak authority, لَا يَذْكُرُونَ اللّٰهَ إِلَّا دَسَمًا: (K:) or, accord. to Z, this is from دَسَمَ said of rain: and, as related by Abu-d-Dardà, the words are أَرَضِيتُمْ إِنْ شَبِعْتُمْ عَامًا أَلَّا تَذْكُرُونَ اللّٰهَ إِلَّا دَسَمًا, meaning [Do ye approve, if ye be satisfied in your stomachs throughout a year,] that ye should not praise, or glorify, God, save a little? (TA:) or it may denote commendation; so that the meaning of لا يذكرون اللّٰه الّا دسمًا is, that praise, or glorification, is the stuffing of their hearts and of their mouths: and it may denote discommendation; as meaning that they praise, or glorify, little; from تَدْسِيمُ نُونَةِ الصَّبِىِّ; (K, TA;) the blackness denoted by this phrase being small in quantity: or, as some say, the meaning is, that they do not praise, or glorify, God for anything but eating, and the grease, or gravy, in their insides. (TA.) دَسِمٌ A thing greasy; or having in it, or upon it, grease or gravy, (M, Mgh,) of flesh-meat or of fat: (Mgh:) [and dirty, or filthy: pl. دُسْمٌ; like as ذُرْبٌ is pl. of ذَرِبٌ.] You say مَرَقَةٌ دَسِمَةٌ [Greasy broth]. (TA.) And ثِيَابٌ دُسْمٌ, Dirty, or filthy, garments. (S, TA.) And دَسِمَ الثَّوْبِ, applied to a man, [Dirty in the garment: and hence, going on foot;] not riding; as also ↓ أَدْسَمُ الثَّوْبِ. (TA.) [Hence also,] (assumed tropical:) Defiled by culpable dispositions. (TA.) A rájiz says, لَاهُمَّ إِنَّ عَامِرَ بْنَ جَهْمِ

أَوْذَمَ حَجًّا فِى ثِيَابٍ دُسْمِ meaning (assumed tropical:) [O God, verily 'Ámir Ibn-Jahm] hath imposed upon himself, (S in art. وذم,) or hath performed, (M,) pilgrimage being defiled by sins. (S in art. وذم, and M.) b2: عِمَامَةٌ دَسِمَةٌ signifies A black turban; (TA;) as also عمامة ↓ دَسْمَآءُ. (Az, Mgh, TA.) And دَسِمٌ occurs in a trad. as meaning (assumed tropical:) Strict, or pious, [though] black, (أَسْوَدُ, [or this may here mean a genuine Arab, as opposed to أَحْمَرُ meaning a foreigner,]) and religious. (TA.) أُمُّ دَسْمَة [probably a mistranscription for أُمُّ

↓ دُسْمَةٍ, lit. “ the mother of blackness; ”] (assumed tropical:) The cooking-pot. (T in art. ام.) A2: آخِرُ دَسْمَةٍ i. q. آخِرُ عَهْدٍ [The last time]; like آخِرُ مَخْطَرٍ. (TA in art. خطر. [See خَطْرَةٌ, last sentence.]) دُسْمَةٌ A thing with which a hole in a skin for water or milk is stopped up. (M, K.) A2: Blackness; (IAar, TA;) [and] so ↓ دَيْسَمٌ: (K:) or dust-colour inclining to blackness. (M, K.) Hence the Abyssinian is called أَبُو دُسْمَةٍ. (IAar, TA.) See also أُمُّ دَسْمَة, above.

A3: Applied to a man, (assumed tropical:) Low, or ignoble; base; vile; mean, or sordid: (S, TA:) or bad, corrupt, base, or vile. (M, K. [Freytag erroneously assigns the meaning “ vilis ”

to أَدْسَمُ.]) One says, مَا أَنْتَ إِلَّا دُسْمَةٌ (tropical:) Thou art none other than one in whom is no good.
