[In the TA, I find أَشْمَلَت الريح ذهبت شماليل مثل شَمَّلت: but this, I doubt not, is a mistranscription of the passage in the O, which I have here followed; i. e. أَشْمَلَتِ الرِيحُ هَبَّت شَمالًا مِثل شَمَلَت; or of a similar passage in which إِذَا هَبَّتْ is put instead of هَبَّتْ alone.]) One says of two persons when they are separated, شَمَلَتْ رِيحُهُمَا (assumed tropical:) [Their wind has become north, or northerly].

(K.) [See also 8.]7 انشمل i. q. شَمَّرَ, (K, TA,) or اِنْشَمَرَ, (O, TA,) [both of which signify He passed along striving, or exerting himself; and the latter signifies also he acted with a penetrative force or energy; and he hastened, or went quickly;] فِى حَاجَتِهِ [in his needful affair]. (O, TA.) And i. q. أَسْرَعَ [He hastened; went quickly; or was quick, swift, or fleet]: (K:) or so ↓ أَشْمَلَ: (thus in the O, as on the authority of IDrd:) or so ↓ اشتمل, inf. n. اشتمال: (thus accord. to my copy of the Msb:) and likewise (O, K) ↓ شَمْلَلَ, (S, O, K,) inf. n. شَمْلَلَةٌ: (S:) and so ↓ شمّل, (K,) inf. n. تَشْمِيلٌ.

(O, TA.) 8 اشتمل بِثَوْبِهِ He wrapped, or inwrapped, himself with his garment; syn. تَلَفَّفَ: (S, O:) or اشتمل بِالثَّوْبِ signifies he wrapped the garment around the whole of his body so that his arm, or hand, did not come forth from it: (K:) or, as some say, he wrapped himself with the garment, and threw [a part of] it upon his left side. (TA.) [See also 5.] اِشْتِمَالُ الصَّمَّآءِ, which is forbidden by the Prophet, is, accord. to As, The wrapping oneself with the garment so as to cover with it his body, not raising a side thereof in such a manner that there is in it an opening from which he may put forth his hand, or arm: (O:) this is also termed التَّلَفُّعُ: and sometimes one reclines in the state thus described: (TA:) but A 'Obeyd says, accord. to the explanation of the lawyers, it is the wrapping oneself with one garment, not having upon him another, then raising it on one side and putting it upon his shoulders: [so says Sgh; and he adds,] he who explains it thus has regard to the dislike of one's uncovering himself and exposing to view the pudenda; and he who explains it as do the lexicologists dislikes one's covering his whole body for fear of his becoming in a state in which his respiration would become obstructed so that he would perish: (O:) or it is one's covering his whole body with the كِسَآء or with the إِزَار; (S, Msb;) to which some add, not raising aught of the sides thereof. (Msb.) [See also art. صم.] One says also, يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى السَّيفِ [He wraps his garment over the sword; or] he covers the sword with his garment. (S, O.) b2: [Hence, اشتمل عَلَى كَذَا It comprehended, or comprised, such a thing.] One says, الرَّحِمُ تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى الوَلَدِ (assumed tropical:) The womb comprises [or encloses] the young. (TA.) [And in like manner one says of a woman, اشتملت مِنْهُ عَلَى وَلَدٍ (assumed tropical:) She became with child by him. And الكِتَابُ يَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى كَذَا وَكَذَا (assumed tropical:) The book, or writing, comprises such and such things. And hence the phrase in grammar, بَدَلُ اشْتِمَالٍ (assumed tropical:) A substitute for an antecedent to indicate an implication therein.] b3: One says also, اشتمل عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرُ, meaning (tropical:) The event [such as a misfortune or an evil of any kind beset him, or beset him on every side, or] encompassed him; (K, TA;) like as the كِسَآء encompasses the body. (TA.) b4: One says of wine, تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى العَقْلِ فَتَمْلِكُهُ وَتَذْهَبُ بِهِ (assumed tropical:) [It compasses the intellect, and so takes possession of it, and makes away with it]: (Ham p. 555:) or تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى عَقْلِ الإِنْسَانِ فَتُغَيِّبُهُ (assumed tropical:) [It compasses the intellect of the man, and conceals it]; and thus one says of the present world or its enjoyments (الدُّنْيَا). (TA.) [اشتمل عَلَى شَىْءٍ often means (assumed tropical:) He took, or got, possession of a thing; got it, or held it, within his grasp, or in his possession.] b5: [Hence,] one says, اشتمل عَلَى نَاقَةٍ فَذَهَبَ بِهَا (assumed tropical:) He mounted a she-camel and went away with her. (Az, O.) b6: And اشتمل عَلَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) He shrouded, covered, or protected, him with himself, or his own person. (TA.) b7: See also 7 R. Q. 1 شَمْلَلَ: see 1, last sentence: A2: and see also 7.

(S, Mgh, Msb.) In imprecating evil upon enemies, (O, TA,) [or upon an enemy,] one says, شَتَّتَ اللّٰهُ شَمْلَهُمْ, (O, TA,) or فَرَّقَ اللّٰهُ شَمْلَهُمْ, (Msb,) or فرّق اللّٰه شَمْلَهُ, (S,) i. e. [May God dissolve, break up, discompose, derange, disorganize, disorder, or unsettle,] their, (Msb,) or his, (S,) united, or composed, state of affairs; (S, Msb;) and شَتَّ شَمْلُهُمْ i. e. [May their united, or composed, state of affairs &c.] become dissolved, broken up, discomposed, &c.: (O, TA:) and [in the contr. case] one says, جَمَعَ اللّٰهُ شَمْلَهُمْ, (S, O, Msb, TA,) or شَمْلَهُ, (Mgh,) i. e. [May God unite, or compose,] their, (S, Msb,) or his, (Mgh,) disunited, or discomposed, state of affairs [&c.]. (S, Mgh, Msb.) And ↓ شَمَلٌ signifies the same: El-Ba'eeth says, قَدْ يَنْعَشُ اللّٰهُ الفَتَى بَعْدَ عَثْرَةٍ

وَقَدْ يَجْمَعُ اللّٰهُ الشَّتِيتَ مِنَ الشَّمَلْ [Sometimes, or often, God raises the young man after a stumble: and sometimes, or often, God unites, or composes, what is dissolved, or broken up, of the state of affairs previously united, or composed]: (S, O:) Az cites this ex. in his “ Nawádir: ” (S:) but Aboo-'Omar El-Jarmee says that he had not heard the word thus except in this verse: (S, O:) Ibn-Buzurj, however, cites another verse as presenting an ex. of the same. (TA.) b2: دَخَلَ فِى شَمْلِهَا and ↓ شَمَلِهَا, said of a he-camel that has become concealed among a herd of [she-] camels, means He entered amid their dense multitude: (K, TA:) so in the M and the Moheet. (TA.) A2: Also, (AHn, O, K,) and so ↓ شِمْلٌ, and ↓ شِمِلٌّ, (K,) A raceme of a palm-tree: (AHn, O, K:) Et-Tirimmáh likens thereto a camel's tail: (TA:) or such as has little fruit: (K:) or of which some of the fruit has been plucked: but AO used to say that it is the produce [or spadix] of the male palm-tree, while not abundant and large. (TA.) A3: See also شَمَالٌ.

A4: And شَمْلٌ مِنْ جُنُونٍ signifies Fear, or fright, like insanity: and so ↓ شَمَلٌ [used alone, and thus written]. (TA.) شِمْلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, near the end.

شَمَلٌ: see شَمْلٌ, in two places.

A2: Also i. q. كَنَفٌ [as meaning Quarter, or shelter or protection]: الكَتِفُ in the copies of the K being a mistake for الكَنَفُ: one says, نَحْنُ فِى شَمَلِكُمْ i. e. فِى كَنَفِكُمْ [We are in your quarter, &c.]. (TA.) A3: And A small quantity (S, K) of dates upon a palm-tree (S) or of ripe dates: (K:) and of rain: (S, K:) and a small number (S, K) of men and of camels (S) or of men &c.: pl. أَشْمَالٌ: and in like manner ↓ شُمْلُولٌ [app. in all of these applications]; (K;) [or] as meaning a light quantity of fruit of the palm-tree; (TA;) and the pl. of the latter is شَمَالِيلُ: (K:) one says, مَا عَلَى النَّخْلَةِ إِلَّا شَمَلٌ and ↓ شَمَلَةٌ and ↓ شَمَالِيلُ There is not upon the palm-tree save a small quantity remaining of its fruit: (S, TA:) or ↓ مَابَقِىَ فِى النَّخْلَةِ إِلَّا شَمَلَةٌ and ↓ شَمَالِيلُ There remained not upon the palm-tree save somewhat in a sparse state [of its fruit]: (TA:) and أَصَابَنَا شَمَلٌ مِنْ مَطَرٍ A small quantity of rain fell upon us: and رَأَيْتُ شَمَلًا مِنَ النَّاسِ وَالإِبِلِ I saw a small number of men and of camels.

شَمِلٌ Wrapping, or inwrapping, himself (↓ مُشْتَمِلٌ) with a شَمْلَة [q. v.]. (TA.) A2: and Thin; syn. رَقِيقٌ: thus expl. by Sh, as applied in this sense by Ibn-Mukbil to a she-camel's tail, which he terms لِيف. (TA.) شَمْلَةٌ A [garment of the kind called] كِسَآء, with which one wraps, or inwraps, himself (يُشْتَمَلُ بِهِ), (S, Mgh, K,) smaller than the قَطِيفَة; as also ↓ مِشْمَلٌ (K) and ↓ مِشْمَلَةٌ; (S, K;) the last two expl. by Lth as a كِسَآء having a sparse villous substance, with which one wraps himself, smaller than the قَطِيفَة: (TA:) or the first signifies a small كِسَآء which one wears in the manner of the إِزَار [or waist-wrapper]: (Msb:) or with the Arabs it is a مِئْزَر [or waist-wrapper] of wool or of [goats'] hair, which one wraps round him: and ↓ مِشْمَلَةٌ, such as is made of two pieces sewed together, with which a man wraps himself when he sleeps by night: (Az, TA:) and this last, accord. to Meyd, signifies a كِسَآء comprising the steel with which one strikes fire, with the apparatus of this latter: (Har p. 628:) the pl. of the first is شِمَالٌ (Msb, TA) and شَمَلَاتٌ. (Msb.) [See also مِشْمَالٌ.] b2: [Hence the saying,] ضَمَّ عَلَيْهِ اللَّيْلُ شَمْلَتَهُ (tropical:) [The night contracted upon him its covering of darkness]. (TA.) b3: and أُمُّ شَمْلَةَ (tropical:) The present world, or its enjoyments; syn. الدُّنْيَا: (IAar, K, TA:) so called because compassing the intellect of a man (تَشْتَمِلُ عَلَى

(K, TA.) الشِمْلَةُ الصَّمَّآءُ is That [mode of wrapping oneself] which is without a shirt and without drawers beneath; in the case of which, prayer is disliked. (TA. [See 8, and see also art. صم.]) شَمَلَةٌ: see شَمَلٌ, in two places.

شَمَلٌّ: see شَمَالٌ.

شِمِلٌّ: see شَمْلٌ, near the end of the paragraph.

A2: Also, (TA,) and شِمِلَّةٌ; (S, O, K, TA;) the former applied to a he-camel; (TA;) and the latter to a she-camel, as also ↓ شِمْلَالٌ and ↓ شِمْلِيلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) which are likewise applied to a he-camel, (TA,) and ↓ شِمَالٌ; (K;) Light, active, or agile; (S, O, Msb, K;) or swift. (Msb, K, TA.) Hence the phrase ↓ طَأْطَأْتُ شِمْلَالِى [I hastened my light one, or my swift one]: or, accord. to AA, he means his hand, or arm, called the شِمَال; [i. e. I lowered my left hand or arm;] شِمْلَالٌ and شِمَالٌ meaning the same. (S, O.) شَمَالٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) the most common form of the word, (Msb,) and ↓ شِمَالٌ, [a form which I think objectionable as likely to cause confusion, though it is probably the original form,] (K,) and ↓ شَمْأَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and ↓ شَمْأَلٌّ, (S, O, K, [in one place in the O erroneously written شَأمَلّ,]) and ↓ شَأْمَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) which last is formed by transposition, (S, O, Msb,) and ↓ شَامَلٌ, without ء, (MF, TA,) and ↓ شَوْمَلٌ, and ↓ شَيْمَلٌ and ↓ شَمُولٌ, (O, K,) and ↓ شَمِيلٌ, (K,) and ↓ شَمَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and ↓ شَمْلٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the last said by ISd not to have been heard except in the poetry of El-Ba'eeth, (TA,) and ↓ شَمَلٌّ, (MF, TA,) [every one of these] used as a subst. and as an epithet, (K,) [so that one says رِيحُ الشَّمَالِ &c. as well as رِيحٌ شَمَالٌ &c. and شَمَالٌ &c. alone; The north wind: or a northerly wind:] the wind that is the opposite to the جَنُوب: (Msb:) the wind that blows from the direction of the قُطْب [or pole-star]: (S:) or the wind that blows from the direction of the حِجْر [which is on what is called the north, but what is rather to be called the north-west, side of the Kaabeh]: (M, K:) or the wind that blows from the direction of the right hand of a person facing the Kibleh [by which is meant the angle of the Black Stone; i. e., correctly speaking, from the north]: (Th, M, K:) or, correctly, the wind that blows from between the place of sunrise and the constellation of the Bear (بَنَات نَعْش): or from between the place of sunrise and the place of setting of the constellation of the Eagle (النَّسْر الطَّائِر): (IAar, K:) [i. e. the wind that blows from some point of the north-east quarter, or nearly so: but it was probably thus named as being the wind that blows from the direction of the شِمَال (or left side) of a person facing the rising sun; and therefore the north wind or a northerly wind:] it seldom, or never, blows in the night: (K:) when it blows for seven days upon the people of Egypt, they prepare the graveclothes, for its nature is deadly: it is cold and dry: (TA:) [see also نَكْبَآءُ:] the pl. of شَمَالٌ is شَمَالَاتٌ (S, O, K) and شَمَائِلُ, which is anomalous, as though pl. of شَمَالَةٌ: (S, O:) الأَشَامِل also occurs, coupled with الأَجَانِب, in a verse of Et-Tirimmáh; and [as أَجَانِبُ is a reg. pl. of أَجْنُبٌ, which is a pl. of جَنُوبٌ,] ISd thinks that they formed from شَمْلٌ the pl. أَشْمَلٌ; and then from this last, the pl. أَشَامِلُ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] one says, ↓ أَصَبْتُ مِنْ فُلَانٍ شَمَلًا i. e. رِيحًا [(assumed tropical:) I perceived from such a one an odour, app. meaning a foul odour]. (TA.) شِمَالٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) applied to one of the hands or arms, (S, Msb,) The left; contr. of يَمِينٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ شِيمَالٌ, (K, TA, [in the CK, الشَّمال and الشّمال are erroneously put for الشِّمَال and الشِّيمَال,]) the latter thought by ISd to be used only by poetic license, for شِمَالٌ, (TA,) and ↓ شِمْلَالٌ, (AA, S, O, K,) this last not known to Ks nor to As: (TA:) of the fem. gender: (S, O, Msb:) pl. [of pauc.] أَشْمُلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) because it is fem., (S, O,) and [of mult.] شَمَائِلُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) which is anomalous, (S, O,) and شُمُلٌ, and شِمَالٌ like the sing.

[He looked, or turned his face,] in the direction of the يمين and in the direction of the شمال: and the pl. in this sense also is أُشْمُلٌ and شَمَائِلُ: (Msb:) you say, ذَهَبَ إِلَى أَيْمُنِ الإِبِلِ وَأَشْمُلِهَا He went to the right sides of the camels and the left sides thereof. (TA in art. يمن.) b3: [Hence,] (tropical:) Ill luck, unluckiness, or evil fortune. (K, TA.) طَيْرُ الشِّمَالِ means (tropical:) Birds of ill luck: (A, TA:) every bird from which one augurs evil. (O, TA.) One says, جَرَى لَهُ غُرَابُ شِمَالٍ, meaning (assumed tropical:) What was disliked, or hated, happened to him: as though the bird [to which this is likened] came to him from the شِمَال [or direction of the left hand]. (TA.) And when the place that a person occupies is rendered evil, one says, فُلَانٌ عِنْدِى

A4: Also A nature; or a natural disposition or temper or the like: (O, Msb, K:) accord. to Er-Rághib, so called because [it is as though it were a thing] inwrapping the man [and restricting his freedom of action], like as the [garments called]

شِمَال [pl. of شَمْلَةٌ] inwrap the body: (TA:) the pl. is شَمَائِلُ, (O, K, TA,) and شِمَالٌ, also, [which seems to be rarely used as a sing. in this sense,] may be a pl., like دِلَاصٌ.

I constructed an enclosure of wood for the sheep or goats: this meaning is plainly indicated, though not expressed, in the S and TA:] but in some copies of the K, in the place of بِنَآءُ الزَّرِيبَةِ لِلْغَنَمِ, as explaining الزَّرْبُ, we find بنات الزريبة الغنم [meaning that ↓ بَنَاتُ الزَّرِيبَةِ signifies sheep, or goats]. (TA.) b2: And زَرَبَ البَهْمَ فِى زَرْبِهَا or زَرِيبَتِهَا He put the بهم [i. e. lambs or kids, or young lambs or kids,] into their place [or enclosure of wood]. (A.

(TA.) b4: See also the next paragraph.

زِرْبٌ: see the next preceding paragraph. b2: Also A channel in which water flows; (K;) and so ↓ زَرْبٌ. (TA.) It is said in a rejez of Kaab, تَبِيتُ بَيْنَ الزِّرْبِ وَالكَنِيفِ She passes the night between the channel of water and the concealing, or protecting, place: meaning that she is fed in the enclosures for camels &c., [فِى الحظائر, thus I read for الحضائر (an evident mistranscription) in the TA,] and among the tents, or houses; not in the pasture-land. (TA.) زِرْبِىٌّ and زُرْبِىٌّ, (K,) or, accord. to the L [and the A], on the authority of IAar, ↓ زَرْبِيَّةٌ, also said to be written زِرْبِيَّةٌ and زُرْبِيَّةٌ, (TA,) are sings. of ↓ زَرَابِىُّ, (K, TA,) which signifies نَمَارِقُ [app. as meaning Small pillows]: (S, A, K:) and carpets: or any things which are spread, and upon which one leans, or reclines: (A, K:) the like of this is said by Zj in explaining a phrase in which it occurs in the Kur lxxxviii. 16: or, accord. to Fr, it signifies carpets (طَنَافِس) having a fine nap, or pile: (TA:) also, [particularly,] (A,) carpets (قُطُوع, A, or طَنَافِس, Har p. 377) of the fabric of El-Heereh; and the like thereof in fabric: (A, and Har ubi suprà:) or ↓ زربيّة signifies [simply] a carpet (طِنْفِسَةٌ): and a carpet (بِسَاط) having a nap, or pile: and a [piece of leather that is spread upon the ground, such as is called] نِطَع: and the like thereof in make. (TA.

(A.) The following saying, of Artáh Ibn-Suheiyeh, وَنَحْنُ بَنُو عَمٍّ عَلَى ذَاتِ بَيْنِنَا فِيهَا بِغْضَةٌ وَتَنافُسُ ↓ زَرَابِىُّ is expl. by En-Nemiree as meaning (assumed tropical:) [And we are sons of a paternal uncle, but] upon our enmity is a comely covering beneath which it is latent; [therein are vehement hatred and envious competition;] زَرَابِىُّ signifying [properly] carpets of sundry colours: (Ham p. 196:) it is also said to mean, in this instance, (assumed tropical:) [concealed] enmities, and sayings that give pain; [the former of these two meanings being] from زَرَبْتُ البَهْمَ فِى الزَّرِيبَةِ, i. e. أَدْخَلْتُهُ: [the latter of them app. suggested by another reading, namely, زَأَانِبُ in the place of زَرَابِىُّ; mentioned and thus explained in the Ham ubi suprà: the poet, therefore, is supposed to have meant, upon our state of union, or concord, (ذات بيننا having two contr. significations,) have supervened concealed enmities, &c.:] or, as some say, the reading in the deewán of Artáh is زَرَائِبُ, as though pl. of ↓ زَرِيبَةٌ, which is likewise made to denote enmity because it is made to enter (تُزْرَبُ, i. e. تُدْخَلُ,) into the heart; or which may be metaphorically applied to a place of enmity latent in the bosom, from the same word as signifying the “ place in which are put lambs, or kids, and sheep, or goats: ” or, supposing the right reading to be ↓ زَرَابِىُّ, the poet may very properly mean, upon the vacant space between our tents, or houses, are carpets (طَنَافِس and بُسُط) spread for us, and we sit thereon, near together in the places, but with the hearts remote: (idem p. 195:) but with the reading زَأَانِبُ, mentioned above, occurs another variation, thus: عَلَى ذَاكَ بَيْنَنَا زَأَانِبُ; meaning, notwithstanding that, between us are sayings that give pain. (Idem p. 196.) b2: ↓ وَيْلٌ لِلزَّرْبِيَّةِ, occurring in a trad., is said to mean (tropical:) Wo to those who go in to lords, or princes, and, when they say what is evil, or say anything, say, He has spoken truth: such persons being likened, in respect of their variable conduct, to one of the زَرَابِىّ mentioned above in the first sentence of this paragraph; or to sheep, or goats, which are thus called in relation to the زَرْب, i. e. the enclosure to which they repair, because they are obsequious to the lords, or princes, and follow their steps with the submissiveness of sheep or goats to their pastor. (TA.) b3: Accord. to El-Muärrij, (TA,) ↓ زَرَابِىُّ is applied to plants, as meaning Such as have become yellow, or red, while having in them greenness: (K, TA:) and when they saw the colours in carpets and other articles of furniture that are spread, they likened them to such plants. (TA.) زَرْبِيَّةٌ and زِرْبِيَّةٌ and زُرْبِيَّةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places. b2: [Golius, finding the second and third of these words expl. by the Pers\. شادروان, (which is often applied by Arabs in the present day to “ an artificial fountain that throws up water,”) has erroneously, as Freytag has observed, supposed that they may signify “ Euripus, fons in altum saliens. ”]

زَرِيبَةٌ: see زَرْبٌ, in two places: and see 1, first sentence. b2: Also (assumed tropical:) The lurking-place of a beast of prey. (S, K.) b3: See also زِرْبِىٌّ.

(K.) b2: And Anything yellow. (K.) A2: Also A certain black singingbird; (MF, TA;) called also ابو زولق, [app. a mistranscription for ابو زريق, as in Freytag's Lex., i. e. أَبُو زُرَيْقٍ,] accord. to the book entitled “ Mantik et-Teyr. ” (TA.) مِزْرَابٌ i. q. مِرْزَابٌ [q. v., said to be not a chaste word].
