بابِلُ:
بكسر الباء: اسم ناحية منها الكوفة والحلّة، ينسب إليها السحر والــخمر، قال الأخفش: لا ينصرف لتأنيثه، وذلك أن اسم كل شيء مؤنث إذا كان علما وكان على أكثر من ثلاثة أحرف فإنه لا ينصرف في المعرفة، وقد ذكرت فيما يأتي في ترجمة بابليون معنى بابل عند أهل الكتاب، وقال المفسرون في قوله تعالى: وما أنزل على الملكين ببابل هاروت وماروت، قيل بابل العراق، وقيل بابل دنباوند، وقال أبو الحسن: بابل الكوفة، وقال أبو معشر: الكلدانيون هم الذين كانوا ينزلون بابل في الزمن الأول، ويقال: إن أول من سكنها نوح، عليه السلام، وهو أول من عمرها، وكان قد نزلها بعقب الطوفان، فسار هو ومن خرج معه من السفينة إليها لطلب الدّفء، فأقاموا بها وتناسلوا فيها وكثروا من بعد نوح، وملّكوا عليهم ملوكا، وابتنوا بها المدائن، واتصلت مساكنهم بدجلة والفرات، إلى أن بلغوا من دجلة إلى أسفل كسكر، ومن الفرات إلى ما وراء الكوفة، وموضعهم هو الذي يقال له السواد، وكانت ملوكهم تنزل بابل، وكان الكلدانيون جنودهم، فلم تزل مملكتهم قائمة إلى أن قتل دارا آخر ملوكهم، ثم قتل منهم خلق كثير فذلوا وانقطع ملكهم، وقال يزدجرد بن مهبندار: تقول العجم: إن الضحاك الملك الذي كان له بزعمهم ثلاثة أفواه وستّ أعين، بنى مدينة بابل العظيمة، وكان ملكه ألف سنة إلا يوما واحدا
ونصفا، وهو الذي أسره أفريدون الملك وصيّره في جبل دنباوند، واليوم الذي أسره فيه يعده المجوس عيدا، وهو المهرجان، قال: فأما الملوك الأوائل أعني ملوك النبط وفرعون إبراهيم فإنهم كانوا نزلا ببابل، وكذلك بخت نصّر، الذي يزعم أهل السير أنه ممّن ملك الأرض بأسرها، انصرف بعد ما أحدث ببني إسرائيل ما أحدث إلى بابل فسكنها، قال أبو المنذر هشام بن محمد: إن مدينة بابل كانت اثني عشر فرسخا في مثل ذلك، وكان بابها مما يلي الكوفة، وكان الفرات يجري ببابل حتى صرفه بخت نصّر إلى موضعه الآن مخافة أن يهدم عليه سور المدينة، لأنه كان يجري معه، قال: ومدينة بابل بناها بيوراسب الجبار واشتق اسمها من اسم المشتري، لأن بابل باللسان البابلي الأول اسم للمشتري، ولما استتمّ بناؤها جمع إليها كل من قدر عليه من العلماء وبنى لهم اثني عشر قصرا، على عدد البروج، وسماها بأسمائهم، فلم تزل عامرة حتى كان الإسكندر، وهو الذي خرّبها. وحدث أبو بكر أحمد بن مروان المالكي الدينوري في كتاب المجالس من تصنيفه: حدثنا إسماعيل بن يونس ومحمد بن مهران، قالا: حدثنا عمرو بن ناجية حدثنا نعيم بن سالم بن قنبر مولى علي ابن أبي طالب عن أنس بن مالك، قال: لما حشر الله الخلائق إلى بابل، بعث إليهم ريحا شرقية وغربية وقبلية وبحرية، فجمعهم إلى بابل، فاجتمعوا يومئذ ينظرون لما حشروا له، إذ نادى مناد: من جعل المغرب عن يمينه والمشرق عن يساره فاقتصد البيت الحرام بوجهه فله كلام أهل السماء، فقام يعرب ابن قحطان [1] فقيل له: يا يعرب بن قحطان بن هود أنت هو، فكان أول من تكلم بالعربية، ولم يزل المنادي ينادي: من فعل كذا وكذا فله كذا وكذا، حتى افترقوا على اثنين وسبعين لسانا، وانقطع الصوت وتبلبلت الألسن، فسميت بابل، وكان اللسان يومئذ بابليّا، وهبطت ملائكة الخير والشر وملائكة الحياء والإيمان وملائكة الصحة والشقاء وملائكة الغنى وملائكة الشرف وملائكة المروءة وملائكة الجفاء وملائكة الجهل وملائكة السيف وملائكة البأس، حتى انتهوا إلى العراق، فقال بعضهم لبعض: افترقوا، فقال ملك الإيمان: أنا أسكن المدينة ومكة، فقال ملك الحياء: وأنا معك، فاجتمعت الأمة على أن الإيمان والحياء ببلد رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، وقال ملك الشقاء: أنا أسكن البادية، فقال ملك الصحة: وأنا معك، فاجتمعت الأمة على أن الشقاء والصحة في الأعراب، وقال ملك الجفاء: أنا أسكن المغرب، فقال ملك الجهل: وأنا معك، فاجتمعت الأمة على أن الجفاء والجهل في البربر، وقال ملك السيف: أنا أسكن الشام، فقال ملك البأس: وأنا معك، وقال ملك الغنى: أنا أقيم ههنا، فقال ملك المروءة: وأنا معك، وقال ملك الشرف: وأنا معكما، فاجتمع ملك الغنى والمروءة والشرف بالعراق. قلت: هذا خبر نقلته على ما وجدته، والله المستعان عليه.
وقد روي أن عمر بن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، سأل دهقان الفلّوجة عن عجائب بلادهم، فقال:
كانت بابل سبع مدن، في كل مدينة أعجوبة ليست في الأخرى، فكان في المدينة التي نزلها الملك بيت فيه صورة الأرض كلها برساتيقها وقراها وأنهارها، فمتى التوى أحد بحمل الخراج من جميع البلدان، خرق أنهارهم فغرّقهم وأتلف زروعهم وجميع ما في بلدهم حتى يرجعوا عما هم به، فيسد بإصبعه تلك الأنهار [1] هكذا في الأصل.
فيستدّ في بلدهم. وفي المدينة الثانية حوض عظيم، فإذا جمعهم الملك لحضور مائدته حمل كل رجل ممن يحضره من منزله شرابا يختاره، ثم صبه في ذلك الحوض، فإذا جلسوا للشراب شرب كل واحد شرابه الذي حمله من منزله. وفي المدينة الثالثة طبل معلق على بابها، فإذا غاب من أهلها إنسان وخفي أمره على أهله وأحبوا أن يعلموا أحي صاحبهم أم ميت، ضربوا ذلك الطبل، فإن سمعوا له صوتا فإن الرجل حيّ، وإن لم يسمعوا له صوتا فإن الرجل قد مات.
وفي المدينة الرابعة مرآة من حديد، فإذا غاب الرجل عن أهله وأحبوا أن يعرفوا خبره على صحته، أتوا تلك المرآة فنظروا فيها فرأوه على الحال التي هو فيها. وفي المدينة الخامسة أوزّة من نحاس على عمود من نحاس منصوب على باب المدينة، فإذا دخلها جاسوس صوّتت الأوزّة بصوت سمعه جميع أهل المدينة، فيعلمون أنه قد دخلها جاسوس. وفي المدينة السادسة قاضيان جالسان على الماء، فإذا تقدّم إليهما الخصمان وجلسا بين أيديهما غاص المبطل منهما في الماء. وفي المدينة السابعة شجرة من نحاس ضخمة كثيرة الغصون لا تظلّ ساقها، فإن جلس تحتها واحد أظلّته إلى ألف نفس، فإن زادوا على الألف، ولو بواحد، صاروا كلّهم في الشمس. قلت وهذه الحكاية كما ترى خارقة للعادات، بعيدة من المعهودات، ولو لم أجدها في كتب العلماء لما ذكرتها. وجميع أخبار الأمم القديمة مثله، والله أعلم.

1 سَلَّ الشَّىٌءَ, (S, M, Mgh,) aor. ـُ (S, M,) inf. n. سَلٌّ; (S, M, Mgh, K;) and ↓ استلّهُ, (M,) inf. n. اِسْتِلَالٌ; (K; [in the CK, الِاسْلال is put in the place of الِاسْتِلَال;]) He drew the thing out or forth from another thing: (Jel in xxiii. 12:) or he pulled out the thing, or drew it forth, gently: (M, K: *) or he drew, or pulled, the thing out, or forth, as a sword from its scabbard, and a hair from dough. (Mgh.) You say, سَلَّ السَّيْفَ, (S, Msb,) aor. and inf. n. as above; (Msb;) and ↓ استلّهُ, both signifying the same; (S;) [i. e. He drew the sword;] as also ↓ اسلّهُ, inf. n. إِسْلَالٌ. (TA.) In the saying of El-Farezdak, غَدَاةَ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ كَانَّ سُيُوفَكُمْ

↓ ذَآنِينُ فِى أَعْنَاقِكُمْ لَمْ تُسَلْسَلِ [In the morning when ye turned back, as though your swords were ذآنين (pl. of ذُؤْنُونٌ a species of fungus) upon your necks, (for the sword was hung upon the shoulder, not by a waist-belt,) not drawn forth], he has separated the doubled letter: thus the verse is related by IAar: but by Th, ↓ لَمْ تَسَلَّلِ [for تَتَنَسَلَّلِ]. (M.) It is said in a trad., لَأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعْرَةُ مِنَ العَجِينِ [I will assuredly draw thee forth from them like as the single hair is drawn forth from dough]. (TA.) And in another trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ أْسْلُلْ سَخِيمَةَ قَلْبِى (tropical:) [O God, draw forth the rancour of my heart]: and hence the saying الهَدَايَا تَسُلُّ السَّخَائِمَ وَتَحُلُّ الشَّكَائِمَ (tropical:) [Presents draw away feelings of rancour, and loose, or melt, resistances, or incompliances]. (TA.) And سُلَّ, said of a colt, means He was drawn forth a سَلِيل [q. v.]. (M, TA.) b2: Also He took the thing. (Msb.) Hence one says, تُسَلُّ المَيِّتُ مِنْ قِبَلِ رَأْسِهِ إِلَى القَبْرِ, i. e. [The dead body] is taken [head-foremost to the grave]: (Msb:) [or is drawn forth &c.: for] it is said of the Apostle of God, سُلَّ مِنْ قِبَل رَأْسِهِ, meaning He was drawn forth [&c.] from the bier. (Mgh.) b3: Also, aor. and inf. n. as above, He stole the thing: (Msb, TA:) or he stole it covertly, secretly, or clandestinely; (TA;) and so ↓ اسلّهُ. (TK.

(M, K.) See also 1, in the latter half of the paragraph. You say, اسلّ مِنَ المَغْنَمِ He stole of the spoil. (Mgh.) b3: إِسْلَالٌ signifies also An open raid or predatory incursion. (TA.) b4: And اسلّ He aided another to steal, or to steal covertly, secretly, or clandestinely. (TA.) b5: [See also إِسْلَالٌ below. Accord. to Freytag, اسلّ signifies He received a bribe: but this requires consideration: he gives no authority but the K, which does not justify this explanation.]

A2: اسلّهُ He (God) caused him to be affected with the disease termed سِلّ [q. v.]. (S, M, Msb, K.) 5 تسلّل: see 7: and see also 1, in the former half of the paragraph. b2: Also i. q. اِضْطَرَبَ [It was, or became, in a state of commotion, agitation, &c.]; said of a thing; as though it were imagined to be repeatedly drawn forth. (Er-Rághib, TA.) 7 انسلّ It (a thing) became pulled out, or drawn forth, gently; (M;) it became drawn, or pulled out or forth, as a sword from its scabbard, and a hair from dough. (Mgh.) You say, انسلّ السَّيْفُ مِنَ الغَمْدِ The sword [became drawn from the scabbard: or] slipped out from the scabbard. (TA.) And انسلّ قِيَادُالفَرَسِ مِنْ يَدِهِ [The leading-rope of the horse slipped out or] came forth [from his hand].

(S.) And اِنْسَلَلْتُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ I went away, and went forth, deliberately, or leisurely, and by degrees, from before him. (TA.) Sb says that اِنْسَلَلْتُ [used in this or a similar sense] is not a quasi-pass. verb; but is only like [a verb of the measure] فَعَلْتُ; like as اِفْتَقَرَ is like ضَعُفَ. (M.) It is said in a prov., رَمَتْنِى بِدَائِهَاوَانْسَلَّتْ [She reproached me with her own fault, and slipped away]: (S, Meyd, TA:) [originally] said by one of the fellow-wives of Ruhm, daughter of El-Khazraj, wife of Saad Ibn-Zeyd-Menáh, on Ruhm's reproaching her with a fault that was in herself. (Meyd, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab.

(O. TA.) b3: And سَلْسَلْتُ المَآءَ فِى الحَلْقِ I poured the water into the throat, or fauces, [app. in a continuous stream.] (S, * O.) b4: And مَاسَلْسَلَ طَعَامًا He did not eat food: (K:) as though he did not pour it into his throat, or fauces.

(TA.) A2: See also سَلَّةٌ, in two places.

سُلٌّ: see what next follows.

سِلٌّ (S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ سُلَالٌ, (S, M, K,) the former [the more common, and] often occurring in the verses of chaste poets, though El-Hareeree says in the “ Durrat el-Ghowwás ” that it is an erroneous term of the vulgar, and that the latter is the right term, (TA,) signify the same, (S, M, K,) as also ↓ سُلٌّ and ↓ سَلَّةٌ, (K,) [Consumption: or phthisis:] an emaciating, oppressive, and fatal malady: (T, TA:) a certain disease, well known; said in the medical books to be one of the diseases of girls, because of the abundance of blood in them: (Msb:) accord. to the physicians, (TA,) an ulcer, (K, TA,) or ulcers, (Msb,) [or ulceration,] in the lungs; (Msb, K, TA;) succeeding (تُعَقِّبُ [grammatically referring to سَلَّة]) either ذَات الرِّئَة [i. e. inflammation of the lungs] or ذَات الجَنْب [i. e. pleurisy]: (in the CK, بِعَقَبِ ذات الرِّيّةِ اوذاتِ الجَنْبِ is [erroneously] put in the place of تُعَقِّبُ ذَاتَ الرِّئَةِ أَوْ ذَاتَ الجَنْبِ: and in what here follows, the gen. case is put in the place of the nom. in four instances:) or a rheum (زُكَامٌ), and defluxions (نَوَازِلُ), or a long cough, and attended with constant fever.

(TA.) سَلَّةٌ The drawing of swords; (S, M, K;) as also ↓ سِلَّةٌ. (K.) So in the saying, أَتَيْنَاهُمْ عِنْدَ السَّلَّةِ [We came to them on the occasion of the drawing of swords]. (S, M, K.) b2: And Theft: (S, Msb:) or covert, secret, or clandestine, theft; (M, K;) like إِسْلَالٌ [except that the former is a simple subst., and the latter is an inf. n., i. e. of 4]: (K:) one says, فِى بَنِى فُلَانٍ سَلَّةٌ [Among the sons of such a one is theft, or covert theft]: (S:) and الخَلَّةُ تَدْعُو إِلَى السَّلَّةِ [Want invites to theft, or covert theft].

الخَيْلِ (S) or عَلَى سَائِرِ الخَيْلِ (TA) (tropical:) [His rush in striving to outstrip proceeded against the other horses]. b2: And A revulsion of shortness of breathing (اِرْتِدَادُ رَبْوٍ) in the chest of a horse, in consequence of his suppressing such shortness of breathing [so I render مِنْ كَبْوَةٍ يَكْبُوهَا, but this phrase admits of other renderings, as will be seen in art. كبو]: (M, K:) when he is inflated thereby, one says, أَخْرَجَ سَلَّتَهُ [app. meaning he has manifested his revulsion of shortness of breathing]; and thereupon he is urged to run with vehemence, and made to sweat, and coverings are thrown upon him, and that shortness of breathing (ذٰلِكَ الرَّبْوُ) passes forth. (M.) b3: [In a sheep or goat, or a ewe or she-goat, it seems to mean Power, or force, of long continuance: see مَسْلُولَةٌ, voce مَسْلُولٌ.]

A3: See also سِلٌّ.

[or coll. gen. n.] because it denotes what is made by art, not created, and it should more properly be regarded as of the class of كَوْكَبٌ and كَوْكَبَةٌ [which are syn.] because this is more common than the class of سَفِينَةٌ and سَفِينٌ. (M.) A5: Also A fault, or defect, in a water-ing-trough or tank, or in a [jar of the kind called]

خَابِيَة: (M, K:) or a breach between the أَنْصَابِ, (K,) or [more properly] between the نَصَائِب, [i. e. the stones set up, and cemented together with kneaded clay, around the interior,] (M,) of a watering-trough or tank.

(AA, K.) b3: A colt; (M, K;) and with ة a filly; (S, * M, TA;) the ة being affixed, though سليل is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, because the word is made a subst.: (Ham p. 102:) or, as some say, (M, in the K “ and ”) the former signifies a colt that is born not in a [membrane such as is called] مَاسِكَة nor [in one such as is called] سَلًى: if in either of these, it is termed بَقِيرٌ [not بُقَيْرٌ as in the CK].

سَلَم and سَمُر, (S, K,) or that gives growth to the سَلَم and ضَعَة and يَنَمَة and حَلَمَة; (M;) and ↓ سَالٌّ signifies the same: (M, K:) or this latter, a place in which are trees: (TA:) or a narrow channel of a torrent in a valley: (As, S, TA:) or a low place surrounded by what is elevated, in which the water collects: (En-Nadr, TA:) pl. of both سُلَّانٌ, (M, K,) or of the former accord. to Kr, (M, TA,) and of the latter accord. to As [and the S], (TA,) or that of the latter is سَوَالُّ. (En-Nadr, K, TA.) One says سَلِيلٌ مِنْ سَمُرٍ

(Msb.) [See also 4.] In the words of the Kur, [xxxiii. 33,] وَقِرْنَ فِى

بُيُوتِكُنَّ, and وَقَرْنَ, [And remain ye in your houses, or chambers,] قِرْنَ and قَرْنَ are contractions of اِقْرِرْنَ and اِقْرَرْنَ like as ظِلْنَ and ظَلْنَ are contractions of اِظْلِلْنَ and اِظْلَلْنَ: (M, Bd, * TA: * [but see ظَلَّ:]) or قِرْنَ is from وَقَرَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وَقَارٌ; (Bd, TA; *) and قَرْنَ from قَارَ, aor. ـَ signifying اِجْتَمَعَ. (Bd.) It is said in a proverb, اِبْدَأْهُمْ بِالصُّرَاخِ يَقِرُّوا [Begin thou by crying out to them, and they will become still, or quiet; or] begin thou by complaining of them, and they will be content to be still, or quiet. (TA.) [But see Freytag's Arab. Prov., i. 173, where, instead of يَقِرُّوا, we find يَفِرُّوا.] You also say فِى مَكَانِهِ ↓ فُلَانٌ مَا يَتَقَارُّ, i. e. ↓ مَا يَسْتَقِرُّ [Such a one does not rest, or remain, in his place]. (S.) And it is said in a trad. of Aboo-Dharr, أَنْ قُمْتُ ↓ فَلَمْ أَتَقَارَّ And I did not delay to rise, or stand up. (TA.) You say also, of a woman, تَقِرُّ لِمَا يُصْنَعُ بِهَا (K) She suffers quietly what is done to her, such as the being kissed, &c. (K. * TA.) And مَآءُ الفَحْلِ فِى الرَّحِمِ ↓ اِقْتَرَّ The seed of the stallion rested, or remained, in the womb (S, K) of the she-camel; (K;) i. q. ↓ استقرّ. (S, K.) See also قَرٌّ, and قَرَارٌ, below.

قَرَرْتَ or قَرُرْتَ,] aor. ـُ (Lh, M, K;) or, accord. to MF, Lh mentions the aor. .

قَرُ3َ and قَرِّ in his Nawádir; and IKtt, the three forms of aor. , and so the author of the Ma'álim; but IKtt says, in his Kitáb el-Abniyeh, يَقَرُّ and يَقِرُّ, though he may have mentioned the three forms in another book; and accord. to what is stated [in the M and] in the L, Lh says يَقُرُّ and يَقَرُّ, which is a rare form; (TA;) [on which it should be remarked, that ISd, IKtt, and Mtr, mention the form قَرَّ first, as though to indicate its being the more, or most, common;] inf. n. قَرٌّ, (Msb,) or قُرٌّ, (IKtt, TA,) or the latter is a simple subst.; (Msb;) It (the day, Lh, S, M, &c., and in like manner one says of the night, قَرّتِ اللَّيْلَةُ, M) was, or became, cold. (Lh, S, M, &c.) b2: قُرَّ He (a man) was, or became, affected, or smitten, by the cold. But you do not say قَرَّهُ اللّٰهُ: instead of this you say ↓ أَقَرَّهُ. (M, K.) b3: It is said in a trad. respecting the war of the Moat, فَلَمَّا أَخْبَرْتُهُ خَبَرَ القَوْمِ وَقَرِرْتُ قَرَرْتُ, meaning, And when I [acquainted him with the tidings of the people, and] became quiet, I experienced cold. (TA.) [But perhaps the last word should be قُرِرْتُ.] b4: قَرَّتْ عَيْنُهُ, (S, M, IKtt, Msb, K,) of the measure فَعِلَتْ, (M,) like تَعِبَتْ, (Msb,) [second Pers\.

قَرِرْتِ,] aor. ـَ (S, M, IKtt, K,) which is the more usual form; (M;) and قَرِّتْ, like ضَرَبَتْ, (Msb,) [second Pers\. قَرَرْتِ,] aor. ـِ (S, M, IKtt, K;) inf. n. قُرَّةٌ, (Th, M, Msb, K,) said by Th to be an inf. n., (M,) and قَرَّةٌ (M, K) and قُرُورٌ; (M, Msb, K;) (tropical:) His eye was, or became, cool, or refrigerated, or refreshed; contr. of سَخِنَتْ; (S, M;) wherefore some prefer that قَرَّتْ should be of the measure فَعِلَتْ, to agree in measure with its contr.: (M:) or became cool, &c., by reason of happiness, or joy: (Msb:) or became cool, &c., and ceased to weep, (M, K,) and to feel hot with tears; (M;) for the tear of happiness, or joy, is cool; and that of sorrow, or grief, is hot: (S:) [it may therefore be rendered, his eye was, or became, unheated by tears:] or it is from القَرَارُ, and means, his eye, seeing that for which it longed, became at rest, and slept. (M, K. *) You also say قَرِرْتُ بِهِ عَيْنًا, and قَرَرْتُ بِهِ عَيْنًا, inf. n., of both forms, قُرَّةٌ and قُرُورٌ, (tropical:) I was, or became, cool, or refrigerated, or refreshed, in eye thereby. (S.) See also 4.

A3: قَرَّهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. قَرٌّ, He poured it; poured it out, or forth; namely, water: and he poured it, or poured it out or forth, at once. (TA.) You say قَرَّ عَلَيْهِ المَآءَ He poured the water upon him. (M, K.) And قَرَرْتُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ذَنُوبًا مِنْ مَآءٍ بَارِدٍ I poured upon his head a bucket of cold water. (S.) and قَرَّ المَآءَ فِى الإِنَآءِ He poured the water into the vessel. (TA.) b2: Hence, (TA,) قَرَّ الكَلَامَ فِى أُذُنِهِ, (Sh, M, K,) and الحَدِيثَ, (S,) aor. ـُ (Sh, S, M,) inf. n. قَرٌّ, (Sh, S, M, K,) (tropical:) He poured forth the speech, or discourse, or narration, into his ear: (M, K:) or he did as though he poured it into his ear: (S:) or he intrusted him with it: (TA:) or he spoke it secretly into his ear: (M, * K, * TA:) or he repeated it in his ear, meaning the ear of a dumb man (أَبْكَم), that he might understand it: (IAar:) or he put his mouth to his ear and spoke loudly to him, as one does to a deaf man. (Sh.) 2 قَرَّّ see 4, in two places.

A2: قَرَّرَهُ بِهِ, inf. n. تَقْرِيرٌ, He made him to acknowledge, or confess, it. (S.) You say قَرَّرَهُ بِالْحَقِّ, (S,) and عَلَى الحقِّ, (M, K,) حَتَّى أَقَرَّ, (S,) He made him to acknowledge the truth, or right, or due, (S, M, K,) so that he did acknowledge it. (S.) 3 قَارَّهُ, inf. n. مُقَارَّةٌ, He settled, became fixed or established or motionless or quiet or still or at rest, rested, remained, or continued, with him. (S, K.) You say أَنَا لَا أُقَارُّكَ عَلَى مَا أَنْتَ عَلَيْهِ I will not settle, &c., with thee in the state in which thou art. (TA.) And hence the saying of Ibn-Mes'ood, قَارُّوا الصَّلَاةَ, (S, * K,) from القَرَارُ, not from الوَقَارُ, (S,) meaning, Be ye still, without motion, and without play, during prayer. (TA.) 4 اقرّه, (S, M, K,) and ↓ قرّرهُ, (M, K,) He settled, fixed, established or confirmed, him, or it; rendered him, or it, motionless, quiet, still, or at rest; made him, or it, to rest, remain, or con-tinue; (S, * M, * K;) فِيهِ [in it, namely, a place, or the like], and عَلَيْهِ [in it, namely, a state, an office, or the like]. (M, K.) You say اقرّهُ فى مَكَانِهِ [He settled, fixed, established, or confirmed, &c., him, or it, in his, or its, place]. (S, K.) And مَا

أَقَرَّنِى فِى هٰذَا البَلَدِ إِلَّا مَكَانُكَ [Nothing fixed me in this country, or town, &c., but thy being in it]. (TA.) And اقرّ الطَّيْرَ فِى وَكْرِهِ He left the birds to rest in their nest. (Msb.) And اقرّ العَامِلَ عَلَى عَمَلِهِ He left the agent to rest, [or settled, fixed, or established, him, or made him to continue, or confirmed him,] in his agency. (Msb.) [And اقرّهُ عَلَى قَوْلِهِ He left him at rest in his assertion, undisturbed, unopposed, or uncontradicted; he confirmed him in it; he confessed him to be correct respecting it. Thus the verb is used in the phrase اقرّهُ عَلَى ذٰلِكَ in the Expos. of the Jel., xxxviii. 22: and in many other instances.] You say also الشَّىْءَ ↓ قرّر, inf. n. تَقْرِيرٌ, meaning, He put the thing in its قَرَار [or resting-place]. (S.) And قَرَّرْتُ عِنْدَهُ الخَبَرَ حَتَّى

↓ اسْتَقَرَّ [I established the information in his mind, so that it became established]. (S.) And أَقْرَرْتُ هٰذَا الأَمْرِ, inf. n. تَقْرَارَةٌ and تَقِرَّةٌ, [both of which inf. ns. properly belong to the synonymous form قَرَّرْتُ, (as Lumsden has remarked, in his Arabic Grammar, page 241,) I settled, fixed, established, &c., this thing, or affair; or I confirmed it.] (S.) And it is said in a trad. of 'Othmán, أَقِرُّوا الأَنْفُسَ حَتَّى تَزْهَقَ Make ye the souls of the beasts which ye slaughter to become at rest, [and wait ye] that they may depart, and do not hasten to skin the beasts, nor to cut them in pieces. (TA.) And in a trad. of Aboo-Moosà, أُقِرَّتْ الصَّلَاةُ بِالْبِرِّ والزَّكَاةِ Prayer is established and connected with برّ and زكاة [i. e., benevolent treatment of others or piety or obedience to God, and the giving of the alms required by the law]. (TA.) b2: أَقْرَرْتُ الكَلَامَ لِفُلَانٍ I explained the saying, or speech, or language, to such a one, so that he knew it. (TA.) A2: أَقَرَّ He became quiet and submissive. (TA, from a trad.) A3: اقرّ بِهِ, (S, Msb,) inf. n. إِقْرَارٌ, (M, K,) He acknowledged, or confessed, it, (S, M, Msb, K,) namely, the truth, or a right, or due, (S, M, K,) or a thing. (Msb.) إِقْرَارٌ signifies The affirming a thing either with the tongue or with the mind, or with both. (ElBasáïr.) b2: [Hence, app.,] أَقَرَّتِ النَّاقَةُ, [as though signifying The she-camel acknowledged, or confessed, herself to be pregnant;] the she-camel's pregnancy became apparent: (IKtt, TA;) or became established; became a positive fact: (ISk, S, K:) or the she-camel conceived; became pregnant. (IAar.) A4: اقرّ He entered upon a time of cold. (M, K.) b2: اقرّهُ اللّٰهُ, (inf. n. إِقْرَارٌ, Msb,) God caused him to be affected, or smitten, by the cold. (S, * M, Msb, K.) One does not say قَرَّهُ (M, K) b3: اقرّ اللّٰهُ عَيْنُهُ, (S, M, Msb, K,) and بِعَيْنِهِ, (M, K,) (tropical:) God made his eye to become cool, or refrigerated, or refreshed, (Msb, TA,) by happiness, or joy, in consequence of his having offspring, or of some other event: (Msb:) or cooled his tears; for the tear of happiness, or joy, is cool: (As:) or gave him to such an extent that his eye became quiet (حَتَّى تَقَرَّ), and was not raised towards him who was above him, (S, TA,) or towards that which was above it: (L:) or caused him to meet with that which contented him, so that his eye became quiet (تَقَرَّ) in looking at other things; an explanation approved and adopted by Abu-l-'Abbás: (L, TA:) or caused his eye to sleep, by making him to meet with happiness, or joy, that dispelled his sleeplessness. (Aboo-Tálib.) You say also يُقِرُّ بِعَيْنِى أَنْ أَرَاكَ [It refreshes my eye, &c., to see thee]. (TA.) See also 1.5 تَقَرَّّand 6: see 1, first signification.8 إِقْتَرَ3َ see 1, first signification.

A2: اقترّ, (K,) or اقترّ بِالْقَرُورِ, (S,) or بِالْمَآءِ البَارِدِ, (M,) He washed himself with cold water. (S, M, K.) 10 إِسْتَقْرَ3َ see 1, first signification, in three places; and see 4. [b2: استقرّ often signifies It was, or subsisted, or had being: and hence مُسْتَقِرٌّ is frequently used or understood as a copula, often with بِ prefixed to the predicate; as is also يَسْتَقِرُّ; so that رَيْدٌ مُسْتَقِرٌّ عِنْدَكَ or يَسْتَقِرُّ عندك may mean Zeyd is with thee; as well as Zeyd is residing, &c., with thee. See, on this point, I 'Ak, p. 58.) b3: Also, It obtained, or held. R. Q. 1 قَرْقَرَ, [inf. n. قَرْقَرَةٌ,] It (a man's belly) sounded, [or rumbled,] (S, TA,) by reason of hunger, or from some other cause. (TA.) Also said of a cloud, with thunder.

(M, TA.) b3: He laughed (S, M, K) in a certain manner, (S,) violently, or immoderately, and reiterating his voice in his throat: (M, K:) or he imitated the sounds of laughing: (IKtt:) or قَرْقَرَ is similar to قَهْقَهَ. (Sh.) b4: He (a camel) brayed, (S, M, K,) with a clear and reiterated voice: (S, M:) or brayed in the best manner: (IKtt:) said only of a camel advanced in age: (S, in art. نقض:) قَرْقَرَةٌ is the inf. n., (S, * M, K, *) and the simple subst. is قَرْقَارٌ: (M, K:) and قَرَاقِرُ is pl. of the former of these ns. (S.) b5: قَرْقَرَتْ It (a pigeon, حَمَامَة,) [cooed; or] uttered its cry: (S, K:) or uttered a hind of cry: (M:) the inf. n. is قَرْقَرَةٌ and قَرْقَرِيرٌ, (S, M, K,) which latter IJ says is of the measure فَعْلَلِيْلٌ, thus making it a quadriliteralradical word, (M,) and قَرْقَارٌ and قَرْقَارٌ, which last is a simple subst. as well as an inf. n., and so is قَرْقرَةٌ. (El-Hasan Ibn-'Abd-Allah El-Kátib El-Isbahánee.) b6: She (a domestic hen) uttered a reiterated cry, or cackling. (Hr, M.) قَرٌّ: see 1, throughout. b2: يَوْمُ القَرِّ [The day of resting;] the eleventh day of Dhu-l-Hijjeh; (A 'Obeyd;) the first of the days called أَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ; (Msb;) the day next after that called يَوْمُ النَّحْرِ [or the day of the sacrifice, or of the slaughtering of camels]: (S, M, Mgh, K:) so called because the people on that day rest, or settle, in their abodes: (S, M, Mgh:) or because they rest on that day in [the valley of] Minè, (A 'Obeyd, Kr, M, Msb, K,) after the fatigue of the three days immediately preceding. (A 'Obeyd.) A2: يَوْمٌ قَرٌّ, (S, M, Msb, K,) the inf. n. being thus used as an epithet, (Msb,) and ↓ قَارٌّ, (S, Mgh, Msb,) but the latter was disapproved by IAar, (TA,) and ↓ مَقْرُورٌ, (M, K,) and لَيْلَةٌ قَرَّةٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) and ↓ قَارَّةٌ, (S, Msb,) A cold chill, or cool, day, and night: (S, M, &c.:) and قَرٌّ is applied to anything as signifying cold; (TA;) [and so, app., ↓ قَارٌّ, and perhaps ↓ قَرُورٌ and ↓ قَرِيرٌ]. [Hence,] القَرَّتَانِ [The two cold times;] the morning and the evening. (S, K.) A man being asked what had caused his teeth to fall out, he answered ↓ أَكْلُ الحَارِّ وَشُرْبُ القَارِّ [The eating what was hot, and drinking what was cold: but he may have used قَارّ instead of قرّ for the purpose of assimilation to حارّ; and it seems that, when coupled or connected with حَارٌّ, قَارٌّ is more chaste than قَرٌّ]. (TA.) Respecting the saying وَلِّ حَارَّهَا مَنْ تَوَلَّى قَارَّهَا, see art. حر.

A3: See also قُرٌّ.

قُرٌّ i. q. قَرَارٌ [q. v.] (S, M, K) and مُسْتَقَرٌّ (TA) [and مَقَرٌّ].

A2: Also, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and ↓ قَرٌّ, (Lh, KT,) which latter form, it is said, must be used in conjunction with [its contr.] حَرٌّ, for the sake of assimilation, (TA,) and ↓ قِرٌّ, (KT,) Cold; coldness; chill; chilness; coolness; syn. بَرْدٌ; (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ قِرَّةٌ: (S:) or قُرٌّ signifies cold; &c., in winter; (M, K;) whereas بَرْدٌ is in winter and summer: (M:) and ↓ قِرَّةٌ, cold, &c., by which a man (M, K) or other creature, (M,) is affected, or smitten. (M, K.) You say دَخَلُوا فِى القُرِّ They entered upon the [time of] cold. (M.) And لَا حَرَّ وَلَا قَرَّ Neither heat nor cold. (TA, from a trad.) And لَيْلَةٌ

↓ ذَاتُ قِرَّةٍ A night of cold. (TA.) And اشدُّ

↓ العَطَشِ حِرَّةٌ عَلَى قِرَّةٌ (S) The most severe of thirst is thirst in a cold day. (S, art. حر.) and sometimes the Arabs said ↓ أَجِدُ حِرَّةٌ تَحْتَ قِرَّةٌ (S) [I experience] thirst in a cold day. (ISd, in TA, art. حر.) [See this and other exs. in art. حر.) One says also ↓ ذَهَبَتْ قِرَّتُهَا, [meaning قِرَّةٌ العِلَّةِ,] The time of its access, or coming, meaning of the access, or coming, of the disease, [app., of the shivering-fit of an ague, (see عُرَوَآءُ,)] departed: the [pronoun] ها refers to [the word]

قُرَّةُ العَيْنِ signifies مَا قَرَّتْ بِهِ العَيْنُ (tropical:) [That by which, or in consequence of which, the eye becomes cool, or refrigerated, or refreshed; &c.; or in consequence of which it becomes at rest, and sleeps: see 1]. (M, K.) In the Kur, xxxii. 17, instead of قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ, Aboo-Hureyreh reads قُرَّاتِ أَعْيُنٍ, as on the authority of the Prophet. (M.) You say also هُوَ فِى قُرَّةٍ مِنَ العَيْشِ (tropical:) He is in a plentiful and pleasant state of life. (TA.) قِرَّةٌ: see قُرٌّ, throughout.

قَرَارٌ: see 1, first signification. b2: A state of settledness, fixedness, stability, establishment, quiet, stillness, rest, permanence, or continuance; (Msb, TA;) and so ↓ مُسْتَقَرٌّ, in the Kur, ii. 34, and vii.

38,] And the sun runneth to a place, and time, beyond which it doth not pass: or to a term appointed for it: (TA:) or to a determined limit, where its revolution ends; likened to the مستقرّ of a traveller, when he ends his journey: or to the middle of the sky; for it there seems to pause: or to its state of settledness, &c., according to a special path: or to its appointed end in one of the different places of rising and setting which it has on different days: or to the end of its course, in the desolate part of the world: and accord. to other readings, لَا مُسْتَقَرَّ لَهَا, and لَا مُسْتَقَرٌّ لَهَا, meaning, it has no rest; for it is always in motion. (Bd.) And ↓ لِكُلِّ نَبَإٍ مُسْتَقَرٌّ [Kur, vi. 66,] To every prophecy is a term [for its fulfilment], which ye shall see in the present world and in the world to come. (TA.)

I will assuredly impel thee, or drive thee, against thy will, to the utmost point to which thou canst go, or be brought or reduced; and, constrain thee to do thine utmost]. (JK.

عِلْمِهِ كَالقَرَارَةِ فِى المُثْعَنْجَرِ My knowledge compared to his knowledge is like the small pool of water left by a torrent, placed by the side of the [main deep, or] middle of the sea. (K, * TA, art. ثعجر.) b4: [The bottom of the sea, &c.]

(K.) The vulgar use it in the present day as an intensive epithet; saying خَيَّاط قَرَارِى, and نَجَّار قَرَارِى, (TA,) meaning a clever tailor, and a clever carpenter; and in like manner, قِرْقَارِى. (IbrD.) قَرْقَرَةٌ: see R. Q. 1; the first and last in two places.

(Msb.) b3: (tropical:) The black of the eye; the part, of the eye, that is surrounded by the white: (M, K:) as being likened to قارورة of glass, because of its clearness, and because the observer sees his image in it.

(Msb.) Hence the words [of Mohammad] in a trad., رُوَيْدَكَ رِفْقًا بِالْقَوَارِيرِ [Go thou leisurely: act gently with the قَوَارير]: women being here likened to قوارير of glass because of their weakness of purpose, and their fickleness; for such vessels are soon broken and cannot be restored to soundness: meaning, that the man thus addressed, named أَنْجَشَة (Anjesheh), [a freedman of Mohammad,] should not raise his voice and sing in driving the camels, for fear of the women's having their desires excited by what they heard; or for fear that the camels, hearing the singing, should go quickly, and jolt and fatigue the riders.

مَقْرُورٌ Affected, or smitten, by the cold: (S, M, K:) from أَقَرَّهُ اللّٰهُ, contr. to rule; as though formed from قُرَّ. (S.) [It seems that J was not acquainted with the form قُرَّ, which is mentioned in the M and K, or that he did not allow it.] b2: See also قَرٌّ.
