(O.) b2: Accord. to As, (O,) رَفْقَآءُ applied to a she-camel signifies Having the orifice of her teat stopped up; (O, K;) and so ↓ رَفِقَةٌ: (K:) the latter is said by Zeyd Ibn-Kuthweh to signify, so applied, having the orifices of her teats stopped up.

(Msb.) b3: [Hence,] مَرَافِقُ الدَّارِ Such appertenances [or conveniences] of the house as the privy and the kitchen and the like: (Mgh, Msb:) or the sinks, and the like, of the house: (S, O, K:) and particularly privies: (O:) when used in these senses, the sing. is مِرْفَقٌ only, with kesr to the م and fet-h to the ف, (Mgh, Msb,) likened to the noun signifying an instrument. (Msb.) [See also حَيِّزٌ, in art. حوز.] b4: And from the same words in the sense expl. in the second sentence above, (Msb,) مِرْفَقٌ and ↓ مَرْفِقٌ signify also The elbow, or elbow-joint; the place where the ذِرَاع joins upon the عَضُد; (S, O, K;) [in other words,] the place where the عَضُد is connected with the سَاعِد; (Mgh;) the مرفق of a man: (Msb:) [and in like manner in a beast, the elbow, or elbowjoint, as in the JK, S, O, and K, voce أَرْفَقُ; and in countless other instances: but in the K voce رُكْبَةٌ (q. v.), it seems to be applied to the knee of a beast:] pl. as above. (Msb.) مِرْفَقَةٌ A pillow (S, O, Mgh, K) upon which one leans [with the elbow]: from مِرْفَقٌ in the sense explained in the last sentence of the next preceding paragraph. (Mgh.) شَاةٌ مُرَفَّقَةٌ A sheep, or goat, having the fore legs white to the elbows. (O, K.) مِرْفَاقٌ A camel whose elbow hurts (يُصِيبُ) his side. (O, K.) b2: And A she-camel that is hurt by the صِرَار [q. v.] when her udder is bound therewith, and from whom blood issues (JK, O, K) when she is loosed [therefrom] (إِذَا حُلَّتْ), (JK,) or when she is milked (اذا حُلِبَتْ). (O, K.) مَرْفُوقٌ A camel having a complaint of his مِرْفَق [or elbow]. (IDrd, O, K.) مُرْتَفَقٌ A place, or thing, upon which one leans [properly with the مِرْفَق, or elbow]. (Bd in xviii.28 and 30.) مُرْتَفِقٌ Leaning upon his elbow. (S, O.) A2: Also Full, standing, and continuing, or remaining: (O, K:) or nearly full: so explained by IAar as occurring in the following verse of 'Obeyd Ibn-El-Abras, (O,) describing rain that had filled the low tracts of ground: (TA in art. صوح:) فَأَصْبَحَ الرَّوْضُ وَالقِيعَانُ مُمْرِعَةً

مِنْ بَيْنِ مُرْتَفِقٍ مِنْهَا وَمُنْصَاحِ [And the meadows, and the plain, or soft, low tracts, became abundant with herbage, partly by what was full, &c., in consequence thereof, and partly by what was flowing, running upon the surface of the ground]: (O:) or, as some relate it, مُتْرَعَةً [i. e. “ filled ”]; and مُرْتَتِقٍ, which means herbage “ of which the blossoms have not yet come forth from their calyxes; ” and مُنْصَاح [accord. to this reading] meaning herbage “ of which the blossoms have appeared: ” (TA in art. صوح:) [or, accord. to the reading مُرْتَتِقٍ, the meaning may be, “partly such as were compact thereof,” i. e. of the meadows &c., “and partly such as were cracked ” by the heat and drought:] another reading is مِنْ بَيْنِ مُرْتَفِقٍ مِنْهَا وَمِنْ طَاحِى

من طاحى meaning “ of what was flowing and going away. ” (TA ubi suprà.) [Nearly the whole of this art. is wanting in the copies of the TA to which I have had access.]

رِجْلٌ; [so in the CK; but accord. to the rule of the K they should be رَجْلَةٌ and رَجْلٌ, as neither is expressly said to be with kesr; or the latter may be correctly رِجْلٌ, as رَجِلَ is said to be like عَلِمَ, of which the inf. n. is عِلْمٌ;] He had a complaint of his رِجْل [i. e. leg, or foot]: (CK; but omitted in other copies: both mentioned in the TA:) the latter verb is mentioned in this sense by El-Fárisee, and also on the authority of Kr. (TA.) b4: And رَجِلَ مِنْ رِجْلِهِ He was, or became, affected in his leg, or foot, by something that he disliked.

(O.) [See also رَجَلٌ, below; where it is explained as though a quasi-inf. n. of أَرْجَلْتُ in the sense here assigned to it in the S and O, or inf. n. of رَجَلْتُ in the same sense.] b2: And رَجَلَ

أُمَّهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. رَجْلٌ, (S,) He (a young camel, S, or a lamb, or kid, or calf, K, TA) sucked his mother.

(TA; and so in the O, except that الخيل is there omitted.) b4: And رَجَلَ المَرْأَةَ He compressed the woman. (TA.) A5: [Golius says that رَجُلَ signifies Vir et virili animo fuit; as on the authority of J; and that رُجْلَةٌ is its inf. n.: but it seems that he found الرُّجْلَةُ incorrectly explained in a copy of the S as مَصْدَرُ رَجُلَ instead of مَصْدَرُ الرَّجُلِ: ISd expressly says that رُجْلَةٌ and its syns. (explained below) are of the number of those inf. ns. that have no verbs.]2 رَجَّلَتْ وَلَدَهَا [app. a mistranscription]: see 1, in the latter half of the paragraph.

(Ham p. 356.) 4 ارجلهُ He made him to go on foot; (S, K, TA;) to alight from his beast. (TA.) A2: and He granted him some delay, or respite; let him alone, or left him, for a while. (S, K.) b2: أَرْجَلْتُ الحِصَانَ فِى الخَيْلِ I sent-the stallion-horse among the mares. (TA.) b3: See also 1, in the latter half of the paragraph, in three places.5 تَرَجَّلَ see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: ترجّل فِى البِئْرِ, (S, Msb, K,) and ترجّل البِئْرَ, (K,) He descended into the well (S, Msb, K) [by means of his feet, or legs, alone, i. e.,] without his being let down, or lowered, or suspended [by means of a rope].

(TA. [See مُرْتَجِلٌ.]) A2: [ترجّل He became a رَجُل, or man; he rose to manhood. (See an explanation of ترجّل النَّهَارُ, in what follows.) And] ترجّلت She (a woman, TA) became like a رَجُل [or man] (K, TA) in some of her qualities, or states, or predicaments. (TA.) b2: ترجّل النَّهَارُ i. q. اِرْتَفَعَ (tropical:) [i. e. The day became advanced, the sun being somewhat high]; (S, IAth, O, K, TA;) it being likened to the rising of a man from youth; (IAth, TA;) and so النهار ↓ ارتجل: or, accord. to Er-Rághib, the former means the sun went down from [or below] the walls; as though it alighted (كَأَنَّهَا تَرَجَّلَتْ [in a proper sense of this verb: see 1, first sentence]). (TA.) A3: and ترجّل He combed his own hair: (Msb:) or he combed down his own hair; i. e., let it down, or made it to hang down, by means of the comb: (Mgh:) or he anointed [or washed] and combed his own hair. (TA. [See 2.]) Hence, نَهَى

عَنِ التَّرَجُّلِ إِلَّا غِبًّا (Mgh, TA) He [Mohammad] forbade the anointing and combing of one's own hair except it be less frequent than every day. (TA.) 8 ارتجل: see 1, first sentence. b2: Said of a horse, (in his running, TA,) He mixed the pace termed العَنَق with that termed الهَمْلَجَة, (T, TA,) or the former pace with somewhat of the latter, and thus, (S,) he went those two paces alternately, (S, K,) somewhat of the former and somewhat of the latter. (S.) A2: He took a man by his رِجْل [i. e. leg, or foot]. (S, TA.) b2: ارتجل الشَّاةَ: see 1, in the middle of the paragraph. b3: ارتجل الرَّنْدَ [or الزَّنْدَةَ], and ارتجل alone in a similar sense: see 5, in two places.

A3: [He extemporized a speech or verses; spoke it or them extemporaneously, impromptu, or without premeditation;] he began an oration (a خُطْبَة), and poetry, without his having prepared it beforehand; (S;) he spoke a speech (Msb, K) without consideration or thought, (Msb,) or without his having prepared it; (K;) he recited it, or related it, standing, without forecast, consideration, thought, or meditation; so accord. to Er-Rághib [who seems to have held this to be the primary signification of the verb when relating to a speech or the like]; or without reiteration, and without pausing, halting, or hesitating. (TA.) and ارتجل الشَّىْءَ [He did, performed, or produced, the thing without premeditation, or previous preparation]. (TA in art. خرع.) [And ارتجل اسْمًا He coined a name.] b2: ارتجل بِرَأْيِهِ He was, or became, alone, or independent of others, with none to take part or share or participate with him, in his opinion, (Msb, K, TA,) without consulting any one respecting it, (Msb, TA,) and kept constantly, or perseveringly, to it. (Msb.) [Hence,] أَمْرُكَ مَا ارْتَجَلْتَ Thine affair [to which thou shouldst keep] is that respecting which thou art alone [&c.] in thine opinion. (K.) and اِرْتَجِلْ مَا ارْتَجَلْتَ مِنَ الأَمْرِ is explained in the T as meaning اِرْكَبْ مَا رَكِبْتَ مِنْهُ [i. e. Undertake thou what thou hast undertaken of the affair: but it may rather signify keep thou to what thou hast undertaken of the affair; agreeably with what here follows]. (TA.) One says also, ↓ اِرْتَجِلْ رَجْلَكَ Keep thou to thine affair: (IAar, M, K, TA:) in [some of] the copies of the K, erroneously, رَجَلَكَ. (TA.) A4: He collected a detached number (قِطْعَة [or رِجْل]) of locusts, to roast, or fry, them. (S.) A5: He set up a مِرْجَل [q. v.], to cook food in it: (T, TA:) or he cooked food in a مِرْجَل. (K.) A6: ارتجل النَّهَارُ: see 5.10 استرجل He desired, or requested, to be, or to go, on foot. (KL.) رَجْلٌ: see رَجُلٌ: b2: and رَاجِلٌ; the latter in two places.

A2: See also رَجِلٌ, in two places.

A3: اِرْتَجِلْ رَجْلَكَ, in some of the copies of the K, erroneously, رَجَلَكَ: see 8, near the end of the paragraph.

رِجْلٌ [The leg of a human being and of a bird, and the kind leg of a quadruped; in each of these senses opposed to يَدٌ;] the part from the root of the thigh to the [sole of] the foot of a man [and of any animal]; (Mgh, Msb, K:) رِجْلُ الإِنْسَانِ meaning that [limb] with which the man walks: (Msb:) or the foot of a man [and of a bird, and the kind foot of a quadruped: or rather it signifies thus in many instances; but generally as before explained: and sometimes, by a synecdoche, it is used in a yet larger sense, as will be explained below]: (K:) of the fem. gender: (Zj, Msb, TA:) pl. أَرْجُلٌ: (S, Msb, K, &c.:) it has no other pl. (Msb, TA) known to Sb; (TA;) the pl. of pauc. being also used as a pl. of mult. in this instance. (IJ, TA.) [Hence,] الرِّجْلُ جُبَارٌ [The hind leg or foot, or it may here mean the leg or foot absolutely, is a thing of which no account, or for which no retaliation or mulct, is taken]: i. e., if a beast tread upon a man with its رِجْل, there is no retaliation or mulct, if in motion; but if the beast be standing still in the road, or way, the rider is responsible, whether it strike with a يَد or a رِجْل. (TA.) And هُوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رِجْلٍ [lit. He is standing upon a single leg; meaning] (assumed tropical:) he is setting about, or betaking himself to, an affair that presses severely, or heavily, upon him, or that straitens him. (T, K, TA.

(TA.) Also A certain mode of binding the udder of a camel, so that the young one cannot suck, therewith, nor will it undo: (S, K:) whence the phrase صَرَّ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ, for صَرَّ صَرًّا مِثْلَ صَرِّرِجْلِ الغُرَابِ. (TA.) El-Kumeyt says, صَرَّ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ مُلْكُكَ فِى النَّا سِ عَلَى مَنْ أَرَادَ فِيهِ الفُجُورَا (assumed tropical:) [Thy dominion among the people has bound with a bond not to be undone him who desires, within the scope of it, transgression]: (S, TA:) i. e. thy dominion has become firm so that it cannot be undone; like as what is termed رجل الغراب cannot be undone by the young camel.

(TA.) b10: رِجْلَا السَّهْمِ (assumed tropical:) The two extremities of the arrow. (K, * TA. [In the former it is implied that the phrase is رِجْلُ السَّهْمِ.]) b11: رِجْلُ بَحْرٍ (tropical:) A canal (خليج) of a بحر [or large river]. (Kr, K, TA.) b12: رِجْلٌ also signifies (tropical:) A part, or portion, of a thing: (K, TA:) of the fem. gender. (TA.) It is said in a trad. of 'Áïsheh, أَهْدَى لَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ رِجْلَ شَاةٍ مَشْوِيَّةٍ فَقَسَمْتُهَا إِلَّا كَتِفِهَا, meaning (tropical:) [Aboo-Bekr gave to us] the half of a roasted sheep, or goat, divided lengthwise [and I divided it into shares, except its shoulder-blade, or its shoulder]: she called the half thus by a synecdoche: (IAth, O, TA:) or she meant the leg (رجْل) thereof, with what was next to it [for مما يَلِيهَا in the O and TA, I read بِمَا يَلِيهَا] of the lateral half: or she thus alluded to the whole thereof, like as one does by the term رَأْس. (O, TA. [But see what here next follows.]) And in another trad., the رِجْل of a [wild] ass is mentioned as a gift, meaning (tropical:) One of the two lateral halves: or, as some say, the thigh: (TA:) and it is explained as meaning the whole; but this is a mistake. (Mgh.) b13: Also (assumed tropical:) The half of a رَاوِيَة [or pair of leathern bags, such as are borne by a camel, one on each side,] of wine, and of olive-oil. (AHn, K.) b14: It is also applied by some to (assumed tropical:) A pair of trousers or drawers; and رِجْلُ سَرَاوِيلَ occurs in this sense in a trad., for رِجْلَا سَرَاوِيلَ; like زَوْجُ خُفٍّ and زَوْجُ نَعْلٍ, whereas each is properly زَوْجَانِ; for the سراويل are of the articles of clothing for the two legs: (IAth, TA:) this is what is meant by the saying in the K [and in the O likewise] that الرِّجْلُ also signifies السَّرَاوِيلُ [app. for مِنَ السَّرَاوِيلِ الطَّاقُ]. (TA.) b15: Also (assumed tropical:) A swarm, or numerous assemblage, of locusts: (S:) or a detached number (قِطْعَةٌ) thereof: (K:) [or] one says [or says also] رِجْلُ جَرَادٍ, (S, TA,) and رِجْلٌ مِنْ جَرَادٍ: it is masc. and fem.: (TA:) a pl. without a proper sing.; like عَانَةٌ (a herd of [wild] asses, S) and خِيطٌ (a flock of ostriches, S) and صُِوَارٌ (a herd of [wild] bulls or cows, S): (S, K:) pl. أَرْجَالٌ; (K:) and so in the next two senses here following. (TA.) b16: And hence, as being likened thereto, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) An army: (K:) or a numerous army. (TA.) b17: Also (assumed tropical:) A share in a thing. (IAar, K.) So in the saying, لِى فِى

One says, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلِى رِجْلِ فُلَانٍ (tropical:) That was in the time of such a one; (S, K, TA;) in his life-time: (K, TA:) like the phrase على رَأْسِ فُلَانٍ.

(assumed tropical:) [The precedence belongs to me; or] I precede: and another says, لَا بَلِ الرِّجْلُ لِى (assumed tropical:) [Nay, but the precedence belongs to me]: and they contend together for it, each unwilling to yield it to the other: (Abu-l-Mekárim, TA:) pl. أَرْجَالٌ: (K:) and so in the senses here following. (TA.) b20: And (assumed tropical:) Distress; straitness of the means of subsistence or of the conveniences of life; a state of pressing want; misfortune; or calamity; and poverty. (O, K.) A2: Also A man who sleeps much: (O, K:) fem. with ة. (TA.) b2: And A man such as is termed قَاذُورَةٌ [which means foul in language; evil in disposition: one who cares not what he does or says: very jealous: one who does not mix, or associate as a friend, with others, because of the evilness of his disposition, nor alight with them: &c.: see art. قذر]. (O, K.) A3: Also Blank paper; (O, K, * TA;) without writing. (TA.) رَجَلٌ: see رَاجِلُ, first sentence: A2: and see also رَجِلٌ, in two places.

A3: [It is also explained as here follows, as though a quasi-inf. n. of 4 in a sense mentioned in the first paragraph on the authority of the S and O, or inf. n. of رَجَلَ in the same sense; thus:] The sending, (S, O,) or leaving, (K, TA,) a lamb or kid or calf, (S, O, TA,) or a young camel, (K, TA,) and a colt, (TA,) with its mother, to such her whenever it pleases: (S, O, K:) [but I rather think that this is a loose explanation of the meaning implied by رَجَلٌ used as an epithet; for it is added in the S and O immediately, and in the K shortly after, that] one says بَهْمَةٌ رَجَلٌ (S, O, K) and ↓ رَجِلٌ (K) [meaning, as indicated in the S and O, A lamb, or hid, or calf, sent with its mother to such her whenever it pleases, or, as indicated in the K, sucking, or that sucks, its mother]: pl. أَرْجَالٌ. (S, O, K.) b2: Also A horse [i. e. a stallion] sent upon the خَيْل [meaning mares, to leap them]: (K:) and in like manner one says خَيْلٌ رَجَلٌ, [using it as a pl., app. meaning horses so sent,] (K accord. to the TA,) or ↓ خَيْلٌ رَجِلَةٌ. (CK, and so in my MS. copy of the K: [perhaps it should be رَجَلَةٌ.]) رَجُلٌ (S, O, Mgh, Msb, K &c.) and ↓ رَجْلٌ, (O, K,) the latter a dial. var., (O,) or, accord. to Sb and El-Fárisee, a quasi-pl. n., [but app. of رَاجِلٌ, not of رَجُلٌ,] called by Abu-l-Hasan a pl., (TA,) A man, as meaning the male of the human species; (Msb;) the opposite of اِمْرَأَةٌ: (S, O, Mgh:) applied only to one who has attained to puberty and manhood: (K, * TA:) or as soon as he is born, (K, TA,) and afterwards also: (TA:) pl. رِجَالٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.,) [applied in the Kur lxxii. 6 to men and to jinn (or genii), like نَاسٌ and أُنَاسٌ, and likewise a pl. of رَاجِلٌ, and of its syn. رَجْلَانُ,] and رجَالَاتٌ, (S, K,) said by some to be a pl. pl., (TA,) and ↓ رَجْلَةٌ, (Sb, Msb, K, TA, in the CK رِجْلَةٌ, [which is a mistake, as is shown by what follows,]) of the measure فَعْلَةٌ, with fet-h to the ف, (Msb,) [but this is, properly speaking, a quasi-pl. n.,] said to be the only instance of its kind except كَمْأَةٌ, which, however, some say is a n. un. like others of the same form belonging to [coll.] gen. ns., (Msb,) used as a pl. of pauc. instead of أَرْجَالٌ, (Sb, Ibn-Es-Serráj, Msb, TA,) because they assigned to رَجُلٌ no pl. of pauc., (Sb, TA,) not saying أَرْجَالٌ (TA) [nor رِجْلَةٌ], and ↓ رَجِلَةٌ, mentioned by Az as another pl., but this [also] is a quasi-pl. n., and of it Abu-l-' Abbás holds ↓ رَجْلَةٌ to be a contraction, (TA,) and رِجَلَةٌ (Ks, K) and أَرَاجِلُ (Ks, S, K) and [another quasi-pl. n. is] ↓ مَرْجَلٌ. (IJ, K.) شَهِيدَيْنِ مِنْ رِجَالِكُمْ, in the Kur [ii. 282], means [Two witnesses] of the people of your religion. (TA.) [رَجُلٌ also signifies A woman's husband: and the dual] رَجُلَانِ [sometimes] means A man and his wife; predominance being thus attributed to the former. (IAar, TA.) And ↓ رَجُلَةٌ signifies A woman: (S, K:) or, accord. to Er-Rághib, a woman who is, or affects to be, or makes herself, like a man in some of her qualities, or states, or predicaments. (TA.) It is said of 'Áïsheh, (S, TA,) in a trad., which confirms this latter explanation, (TA,) كَانَتْ الرَّأْىِ, ↓ رَجُلَةَ, (S, TA,) meaning She was like a man in judgment. (TA. [See also مَرْجَلَانِيَّةٌ.]) The dim. of رَجُلٌ is ↓ رُجَيْلٌ and ↓ رُوَيْجِلٌ: (S, K:) the former reg.: (TA:) the latter irreg., as though it were dim. of رَاجِلٌ: (S, TA:) [but it seems that رُوَيْجِلٌ is properly the dim. of رَاجِلٌ, though used as that of رَجُلٌ.] One says, هُوَ رَجُلُ وَحْدِهِ [He is a man unequalled, or that has no second], (IAar, L in art. وحد,) and وَحْدِهِ ↓ رُجَيْلُ [A little man (probably meaning the contrary) unequalled, &c.]. (S and L in that art.) and it is said in a trad., إِنْ صَدَقَ ↓ أَفْلَحَ الرُّوَيْجِلُ [The little man prospers if he speak truth] (TA.) b2: Also One much given to coition: (Az, O, K:) used in this sense by the Arabs of ElYemen: and some of the Arabs term such a one عُصْفُورِىٌّ. (O, TA.) b3: And i. q. رَاجِلٌ, q. v. (Mgh, Msb, K.) b4: And Perfect, or complete [in respect of bodily vigour or the like]: ('Eyn, O, K, TA: [in the CK, والرّاجِلُ الكَامِلُ is erroneously put for والراَجل والكامل:]) or strong and perfect or complete: sometimes it has this meaning, as an epithet: and when thus used, Sb allows its being in the gen. case in the phrase, مَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ رَجُلٍ أَبُوهُ [I passed by a man whose father is strong &c.]; though the nom. case is more common: he says, also, that when you say, هُوَ الرَّجُلُ, you may mean that he is perfect or complete, or you may mean any man that speaks and that walks upon two legs. (M, TA.) A2: [In the CK, شَعَرٌ رَجُلٌ is erroneously put for شَعَرٌ رَجْلٌ: and, in the same, رَجُلُ الشَّعَرِ, as syn. with رَجِلُ الشَّعَرِ, is app. a mistake for رَجْلُ الشَّعَرِ; but it is mentioned in this sense by 'Iyád:] see the paragraph here following.

رَجِلٌ; and its fem., with ة: see رَاجِلٌ.

A2: شَعَرٌ رَجِلٌ (ISk, S, Msb, K) and ↓ رَجَلٌ (ISk, S, K) and ↓ رَجْلٌ, (Msb, K, [in the CK, erroneously, رَجُلٌ,]) Hair [that is wavy, or somewhat curly, i. e.] of a quality between [بَيْنَ, for which بَيِّنُ is erroneously put in the CK,] lankness and crispness or curliness, (K,) or not very crisp or curly, nor lank, (ISk, S,) or neither very crisp or curly, nor very lank, but between these two. (Msb, TA.) b2: And رَجِلُ الشَّعَرِ and ↓ رَجَلُهُ (ISd, Sgh, K) and ↓ رَجْلُهُ (ISd, K, TA, but accord. to the CK as next follows,] and ↓ رَجُلُهُ, with damm to the ج, added by 'Iyád, in the Meshárik, (MF, TA,) A man having hair such as is described above: pl. أَرْجَالٌ and رَجَالَى; (M, K;) the former, most probably, accord. to analogy, pl. of رَجْلٌ; but both may be pls. of رَجِلٌ and رَجَلٌ: accord. to Sb, however, رَجَلٌ has no broken pl., its pl. being only رَجَلُونَ. (M, TA.) A3: See also رَجَلٌ, in two places.

رَجْلَةٌ: see رَجُلٌ, first sentence, in two places: b2: and رَاجِلٌ.

(K. [In the K is then added, “or with damm, strength to walk, or go on foot; ” but it seems evident that we should read “ and with damm,”

&c., agreeably with the passage in the M, in which the order of the two clauses is the reverse of their order in the K.]) One says, حَمَلَكَ اللّٰهُ عَنِ الرُّجْلَةِ and مِنَ الرُّجْلَةِ, i. e. [May God give thee a beast to ride upon, and so relieve thee from going on foot, or] from the act of the man who has no beast. (T, TA.) And هُوَ ذُو رُجْلَةٍ He has strength to walk, or go on foot.

(K.) b2: and A water-course, or channel in which water flows, (S, K,) from a [stony tract such as is called] حَرَّة to a soft, or plain, tract: (K:) pl. رِجَلٌ; (S, K;) a term similar to مَذَانِبُ [pl. of مِذْنَبٌ]: so says Er-Rághib: the waters (he says) pour to it, and it retains them: and on one occasion he says, the رِجْلَة is like the قَرِيّ; it is wide, and people alight in it: he says also, it is a water-course of a plain, or soft, tract, such as is ملباث, or, as in one copy, مِنْبَات [which is app. the right reading, meaning productive of much herbage]. (TA.) A5: الرِجْلَةُ also signifies A species of the [kind of plants called] حَيْض.

Q. Q. 1 سَبْعَنَ: see 2. last sentence but one.

سَبْعٌ fem. of سَبْعَةٌ, q. v.

A2: See also سَبُعٌ in two places.

A3: السَّبْعُ The place to which mankind shall be congregated (K, TA) on the day of resurrection. (TA.) Hence the trad., (K, TA,) which relates that while a pastor was among his sheep, or goats, the wolf rushed upon him, and took from them a sheep, or goat, and the pastor pursued him until he rescued it from him; whereupon the wolf looked aside towards him, and said to him, (TA,) مَنْ لَهَا يَوْمَ السَّبْعِ, meaning Who will be for it [namely, the sheep, or goat, as aider, or defender,] on the day of resurrection? (K, TA:) thus expl. by I Aar, and mentioned by Sgh and the author of the L: (TA:) but to this is contradictory, or repugnant, يَعْكُرُ, [in the CK erroneously written يَعْكَرُ,]) the saying of the wolf, (K, TA,) after the words mentioned above, (TA,) “ the day when it shall have no pastor but me; ” for the wolf will not be a pastor on the day of resurrection: or the meaning is, who shall be for it on the occasion of trials, when it shall be left to itself, without pastor, a spoil to the animals of prey: the animal of prey being thus made to be a pastor to it: (K, TA:) this is in the way of a trope: and accord. to this explanation, it may be [↓ يَوْمَ السَّبُعِ] with damm to the ب: (TA:) or يَوْمُ السَّبْعِ was a festival of their's in the Time of Ignorance, on which they were diverted from everything by their sport: (AO, K, TA:) and accord. to one relation [of the trad.] it is with damm to the ب. (L, K.) سُبْعٌ (S, Msb, K) and ↓ سُبُعٌ, (Mgh, Msb,) of which the former is a contraction, (Msb,) A seventh part; one of seven parts; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ سَبِيعٌ; (S, Msb, K;) the last not heard by Sh on any authority beside that of Az: (TA:) pl. of the first (Msb) and second (Mgh, Msb) أَسْبَاعٌ. (Mgh, Msb, TA.) Hence, أَسْبَاعٌ القُرْآنِ [The seven sections, or volumes, of the Kur-an,] in which one reads: said to be postclassical. (Mgh.) A2: See also أُسْبُوعٌ, in three places.

سِبْعٌ A certain ظِمْء of the أَظْمَآء of camels; (T, S, K;) i. e. their coming to the water on the seventh day [counting the day of the next preceding watering as the first]; (K;) or [in other words, which have virtually the same meaning,] their remaining in their places of pasturing five complete days, and coming to the water on the sixth day, not reckoning the day of the [next preceding] return from the water. (Az, TA.) You say, وَرَدَتْ إِبْلُهُ سِبْعًا His camels came to the water &c. (S, K.) b2: Also The seventh young one, or offspring. (A in art. ثلث.) سَبَعٌ: see what next follows.

سَبُعٌ (S, Sgh, Msb, K) and ↓ سَبْعٌ, (Sgh, Msb, K,) a dial. var., (Sgh, Msb,) and the form in common use with the vulgar, (Msb,) adopted also by several readers of the Kur in v. 4, (Msb, TA,) and often occurring in the poems of the Arabs, (TA,) and ↓ سَبَعٌ, (Sgh, K,) a form adopted by two readers of the Kur in the place above mentioned, and perhaps a dial. var., (Sgh, TA,) The animal of prey; the rapacious animal; (K;) [whether beast or bird; being sometimes applied to the latter, as, for instance, in the K, voce مِخْلَبٌ; but generally to the former:] or whatsoever has a fang, or canine tooth, with which it makes hostile attacks, and seizes its prey; (Msb;) such as the lion, [to which it is particularly applied by most of the Arabs in the present day,] and also (TA) such as the wolf and the lynx and the leopard, (Msb, TA,) and the like of these, that has a fang, and attacks men and beasts and makes them its prey: (TA:) the fox, however, is not thus called, though having a fang, (Msb, TA,) because he does not attack with it nor take prey, (Msb,) or because he does not attack small beasts, nor seize with his fang any animal; (TA;) and in like manner the hyena (Msb, TA) is not reckoned among the hostile animals thus called, wherefore the Sunneh allows that its flesh may be eaten, and requires that a compensation be made for it [by the sacrifice of a ram] if it be smitten [and killed] in the sacred territory or by a person in the state of ihrám: but as to the jackal, it is a noxious سبع, and its flesh is unlawful, because it is of the same kind as wolves, except that it is smaller in size and weaker in body: thus says Az: but some others say that the سبع is any hostile beast having a مِخْلَب [or tearing claw]: and it is said in the Mufradát to be thus called because of the perfectness of its strength; for السَّبْعُ [seven] is one of the perfect numbers: (TA:) the pl. is سِبَاعٌ, (Sb, S, Msb, K,) i. e., of سَبُعٌ, which has no other pl.; (Sb, Msb;) أَسْبُعٌ is also a pl., (Sgh, Msb, K,) but this is pl. of pauc. of ↓ سَبْعٌ, (Sgh, Msb,) which, not being a contraction [of سَبُعٌ, but a dial. var. thereof], has also for its pls. [of mult.]

سُبُوعٌ and سُبُوعَةٌ, like صُقُورٌ and صُقُورَةٌ, pls. of صَقْرٌ. (TA.) See also سَبْعٌ: [and see سَبُعَةٌ.] You say of him who is very injurious, or mischievous, مَا هُوَ إِلَّا سَبُعٌ مِنَ السِّبَاعِ (tropical:) [He is none other than one of the animals of prey]. (TA.) b2: السَّبُعُ is also the name of (assumed tropical:) The constellation [Lupus] behind [i. e. on the east of] Centaurus, containing nineteen stars in the figure. (Kzw.) سُبُعٌ: see سُبْعٌ.

سَبْعَةٌ, (S, K,) sometimes pronounced ↓ سَبَعَةٌ but some disallow this latter, and say that it is pl. of سَابِعٌ, (K,) [Seven;] a well-known number; and called one of the perfect numbers: (TA:) fem. سَبْعٌ. (S, K.) You say, سَبْعَةُ رِجَالٍ [Seven men]: and سَبْعُ نِسْوَةٍ [seven women]. (S, K.) b2: أَخَذَهُ أَخْذَ سَبْعَةٍ: see سَبُعَةٌ. b3: وَزْنَ سَبْعَةٍ means Of the weight of seven مَثَاقِيل: (S, K:) one says, أَخَذْتُ مِنْهُ مِائَةَ دِرْهَمٍ وَزْنَ سَبْعَةٍ, meaning [I took, or received, from him a hundred dirhems] every ten whereof were of the weight of seven mithkáls. (TA.) [But see دِرْهَمٌ.] b4: إِحْدَى مِنْ سبْعٍ [lit. One of seven;] means (assumed tropical:) a great, momentous, or difficult, thing, or affair: (Sh, K: *) an affair difficult to decide: perhaps as being likened to one of the seven nights in which God sent the punishment upon [the tribe of]

'Ád: or, as some say, the seven years [of famine in the days] of Joseph. (Sh, TA.) b5: السَّبْعُ المَثَانِى The Fátihah; [or first chapter of the Kur-án;] because it consists of seven verses: or the long chapters from البَقَرَة to الأَعْراف [a mistake for الأَنْفَال]; as in the Mufradát: or, as in the L, to التَّوْبَة, reckoning التوبة and الانفال as one chapter, for which reason they are not separated by the بَسْمَلَة. (TA.) [See also مَثْنًى.]

b6: El-Farezdak says, وَكَيْفَ أَخَافُ النَّاسَ وَاللّٰهُ قَابِضٌ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَالسَّبْعَيْنِ فِى رَاحَةِ اليَدِ meaning [And how should I fear men when God is comprehending mankind and] the seven heavens and seven earths [in the palm of the hand?]. (K.) b7: See also أُسْبُوعٌ; last sentence. b8: [سَبْعَةٌ is also used in a vague manner, as meaning Seven or more; or several; or many; as Bd says, in ix. 81, and as is indicated, though not plainly declared, in the TA. See 2: and see also سَبْعُونَ. b9: Respecting a peculiar pronunciation of the people of El-Hijáz, and a case in which سَبْعَة is imperfectly decl., see ثَلَاثَةٌ. See also سِتَّةٌ.] b10: سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ [indecl. in every case, meaning Seventeen,] is pronounced by some of the Arabs سَبْعَةَ عْشَرَ: and [the fem.] سَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ, thus in the dial. of El-Hijáz [and of most of the Arabs], is pronounced سَبْعَ عَشِرَةَ in the dial. of Nejd. (S in art. عشر.) A2: See also سَبُعَةٌ, in two places.

سَبَعَةٌ: see سَبْعَةٌ.

سَبُعَةٌ and ↓ سَبْعَةٌ, the latter a contraction of the former, The lioness. (ISk, S, Msb, K.) Hence the saying, ↓ أَخَذَهُ أَخَذَ سَبْعَةٍ, (ISk, S, K,) or السَّبْعَةِ, (Msb,) He seized him with the seizing of a lioness, (ISk, S, K,) or of the lioness, (Msb,) which is more impetuous (أَنْزَقُ) than the lion, (ISk, S,) or more bold than the lion: (Msb:) or the saying is, أَخَذَهُ أَخْذَ سَبْعَةَ (S, K) he seized him with the seizing of Seb'ah, who was a certain strong man, (Ibn-El-Kelbee, S,) or a certain insolent and audacious rebel, (Ibn-El-Kelbee, Lth, K,) of the Arabs, (TA,) whom one of the kings of El-Yemen seized, and, after having cut off his hands and feet, or arms and legs, crucified; [so that the meaning is, he punished him with the punishment of Seb'ah;] and hence it was said, لَأُعَذِّبَنَّكَ عَذَابَ سَبْعَةَ [I will assuredly punish thee with the punishment of Seb'ah]; (El-Kelbee, Lth, K; *) and لَأَعْمَلَنَّ بِكَ عَمَلَ سَبْعَةَ I will assuredly do with thee as was done with Seb'ah: (O:) or the man's name was سَبُعٌ, and it was contracted, and made fem. by way of contempt: or the meaning of the first saying is, he seized him with the seizing of seven men: (K:) and in like manner the last saying is expl. by some [who say سَبْعَةٍ instead of سَبْعَةَ]. (TA.) The dim. is ↓ سُبَيْعَةٌ. (Msb.) [See also سَبُعٌ.]

سَبُعِىٌّ Of, or relating to, an animal of prey.]

سَبْعُونَ [Seventy;] a well-known number; (K;) the round number that is between سِتُّونَ and ثَمَانُونَ. (TA.) b2: The Arabs also use it as meaning [Seventy or more; or] many. (TA.) Thus it is used in the Kur [ix. 81], where it is said, إِنْ تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ سَبْعِينَ مَرَّةً فَلَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللّٰهُ لَهُمْ, meaning If thou beg forgiveness for them many times, even then God will not forgive them; not that God would forgive them if forgiveness were begged more than seventy times: (Bd, * TA:) and سَبْعَةٌ and سَبْعُمِائَةٍ and the like are used in the same manner. (Bd.) b3: [Also Seventieth.]

سُبَاعَ as meaning Seven and seven, or seven and seven together, or seven at a time and seven at a time, seems not to have been used; for] A'Obeyd says that more than أُحَادَ and ثُنَآءَ and ثُلَاثَ and رُبَاعَ has not been heard, excepting عُشَارَ. (TA in art. عشر.) سَبُوعٌ [app. Wont to frighten]: (TA: [in which the meaning here given seems to be indicated.]) سُبُوعٌ: see أُسْبُوعٌ, in four places.

سَبِيعٌ: see سُبْعٌ: b2: and سَابعٌ.

(K.). and سُبَاعِىُّ البَدَنِ, (S, K,) applied to a man, has the like meaning; (K;) complete, or full-grown, in body; (S, TA;) [or seven spans in height; for] when a boy has attained seven spans, he is a man. (S, voce خُمَاسِىٌّ, q. v.) سَابِعٌ [act. part. n. of 1: generally meaning Seventh]: pl. سَبَعَةٌ. (K.) You say, كُنْتُ سَابِعَهُمْ [I was the seventh of them]. (S, K.) And هٰذَا هٰذَا ↓ سَبِيعُ, meaning سَابِعُهُ [This is the seventh of this: not the seventh part; though the former has also this latter meaning]. (TA.) And هُوَ سَابِعُ سَبْعَةٍ [He is the seventh of seven]. (TA.) And هُوَ سَابِعٌ سِتَّةً [He is making six to become seven]. (TA.) b2: إِبِلٌ سَوَابِعُ [pl. of سَابِعَةٌ] Camels coming to the water on the seventh day [counting the day of the next preceding watering as the first]. (TA.) [See سِبْعٌ.] b3: [سَابِعَ عَشَرَ and سَابِعَةَ عَشْرَةَ, the former masc. and the latter fem., meaning Seventeenth, are subject to the same rules as ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and its fem., expl. in art. ثلث, q. v.]

أُسْبُوعٌ A certain number of days; (S, * Msb, K; *) i. e. seven days; a week; (Msb;) also termed ↓ سُبُوعٌ, (Lth, Msb, K,) by some of the Arabs; (Lth, Msb;) [and ↓ سُبْعٌ, as shown by what follows:] pl. of the first أَسَابِيعُ. (Msb, TA.) One says, ↓ أَقَمْتُ عِنْدَهُ سُبْعَيْنِ [in the sense of أُسْبُوعَيْنِ, which is more common,] i. e. I remained at his abode two weeks. (TA.) b2: Also The seventh day; and so ↓ سُبُوعٌ; as in a trad., where it is said, إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمَ سُبُوعِهِ, meaning When his seventh day after the celebration of his marriage is come. (TA.) [↓ يَوْمُ السُّبُوعِ is used in this sense in the present day: and also as meaning The seventh day after childbirth; in which sense it is generally to be understood when used unrestrictedly; as this day is celebrated with more rejoicing than the former: also as meaning the seventh day after the return from pilgrimage.] b3: And Seven circuitings [round the House of God, meaning the Kaabeh]: (Lth, Mgh, Msb:) pl. أَسَابِيعُ (S, Mgh, Msb) and أُسْبُوعَاتٌ. (Lth, Mgh, Msb.) You say, طَافَ بِالبَيْتِ أُسْبُوعًا, (S, Mgh, * K,) and ↓ سُبُوعًا, (Lth, IDrd, K,) but A boo Sa'eed says, I know not any one who has said this except IDrd, and the former is the word commonly known, (TA,) and ↓ سَبْعًا, (K,) and ↓ سُبْعًا, (TA,) He circuited round the House [of God] seven times, (S, TA,) or seven circuitings; (Mgh;) and ثَلَاثَةَ أَسَابِيعَ [thrice seven times, or thrice seven circuitings]. (S.) مُسْبَعٌ Given, or delivered, to the ظُؤُورَة [which means both nurse and nurses]: (Skr, S, TA:) this is the primary signification: (Skr:) or whose mother dies, and who is therefore suckled by another; (K; in which the next following signification may be regarded as implied, TA;) left to himself; or left without work, or occupation; applied to a slave; syn. مُهْمَلٌ: (Skr, S:) or مُتْرَفٌ, (Sgh, K,) [which has the same and other significations; or] which is [here] nearly the same as مُهْمَلٌ, for he who is مُهْمَل is usually مُتْرَف: (TA:) or one who is left to himself with the سِبَاع [or animals of prey] so that he becomes like one of them in mischievousness, or noxiousness, or evilness: (AO, K:) or who is left to himself and not restrained from his daringness, so that he remains daring: and a slave left to himself, and daring; left until he has become like the سَبُع: (TA:) or one whose origin is suspected; (K;) whose father is not known: (Er-Rághib, Sgh:) or a bastard: (K:) or one whose lineage is of slaves, (K, TA,) or ignoble, (TA,) up to seven male ancestors, (K, TA,) or, to seven female ancestors; (TA;) or, to four male ancestors; (En-Nadr, K;) or whose lineage is traced up to four female ancestors all of them slaves: (TA:) or born at seven months; (K, TA;) not matured by the womb, his months not being completed.

(KL.) شَيْخٌ (S, A, Mgh, L, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ شَيْخُونٌ, (K,) but the latter is a strange word, mentioned by some of the expositors of the Fs, as expressing more than the former word, (MF,) [An old, or elderly, man; an elder, as meaning a man whose age gives him a claim to reverence or respect; a senior;] one advanced in age, (Mgh,) such as is beyond him who is termed كَهْلٌ, (Mgh, Msb,) which means him whose شَبَاب [i. e. youthfulness, or prime of manhood,] is ended: (Mgh:) one in whom age has become apparent, (L, K,) and hoariness: (L:) or a man from the age of fifty, or fifty-one, to the end of his life, or to the age of eighty: (L, K:) also expl. as meaning a man advanced in age but having strength, or vigour, to fight: and an old and weak, or a decrepit, man, who is of no service: (Mgh:) [in the present day, شَيْخٌ is used in the senses above mentioned; and is also especially applied, as an appellation of honour, to a doctor of religion and law; a head, or chief, of a religious confraternity; a chief of a tribe or the like, and of a village; and to a reputed saint:] fem. ↓ شَيْخَةٌ, (S, A, Msb, K,) an old, or aged, woman; syn. عَجُوزٌ: (A:) [and applied in the present day particularly to a learned woman; an instructress; and the like:] the pl.

b3: شَيْخٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A woman's husband, (K,) though young: and in like manner, a man's wife, whether old or young, is called his عَجُوز. (Az, TA in art. عجز.) b4: [And (tropical:) An ancestor. Accord. to a copy of the A that seems to have been used by the author of the TA, one says, وَرِثَ مِنْ مَشِيخَةِ الكَرَم and من أَشْيَاخِهِ, which is tropical, meaning مِنْ آبَائِهِ: but the right reading is evidently ↓ من مَشِيخَتِهِ, and الكَرَمَ; and the meaning, (tropical:) He inherited, from his ancestors, generosity.] b5: شَيْخُ النَّارِ means (tropical:) Iblees: because he was created of fire, or because his ultimate place will be the fire of Hell.

(TA. [See also سِنْخٌ, last sentence.]) A2: شَيْخٌ signifies also A certain tree; (Az, K, TA;) also called شَجَرَةُ الشُّيُوخِ, the fruit of which is a جِرْو [q. v.] like that of the خِرِّيع, which is the bastard saffron (شَجَرَةُ العُصْفُرِ); it grows in the meadows, and the قُرْيَان [or places where water runs to, or in, or into, meadows, &c.].

(M, K.) b3: Also, (T, S, M, &c.,) inf. n. as above, (M,) He clave to the dust, or earth: (M, K:) or he clave to the dust, or earth, by reason of poverty; (M;) he became so poor that he clave to the dust, or earth: (A'Obeyd, T:) or he became poor, (T, S, Msb,) as though he clave to the dust, or earth: (S, Msb:) and he suffered loss, and became poor, (M, K,) so that he clave to the dust, or earth; (M;) inf. n. as above, (M, K,) and مَتْرَبَةٌ, (M,) or مَتْرَبٌ, (K,) or both of these: (TA:) his wealth became little; (A;) as also ↓ اترب, (M, A, K,) and ↓ ترّب: (K:) or ↓ اترب signifies, (T, S, M,) or signifies also, (A, K,) and so تَرِبَ, (A,) and ↓ ترّب, (K,) his wealth became much, or abundant, (T, M, A, K,) so that it was like the dust, or earth; which is the more known meaning of the verb; (M;) or he became rich; (S, Msb;) as though he became possessed of wealth equal in quantity to the dust, or earth: (S, A:) accord. to Abu-l-'Abbás, ↓ تَتْرِيبٌ signifies [the having] much wealth; and also [the having] little wealth. (T.) You say, ↓ تَرِبَ بَعْدَ مَا أَتْرَبَ , meaning He became poor after he had been rich. (A.) b4: تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ, (T, S, A, Msb, in the M and K يَدَاهُ,) a form of imprecation, (S, Msb,) meaning [May thine arms, or thy hands, cleave to the dust, or earth, by reason of poverty; as is implied in the T: or] may thy hands have in them dust, or earth: (Ham p. 275:) or mayest thou not obtain, or attain, good: (S, K: *) or mayest thou be unsuccessful, or fail of attaining thy desire, and suffer loss: (A:) occurring in a trad., and as some relate, (A'Obeyd, T,) not meant as an imprecation; (A'Obeyd, T, Msb;) being a phrase current with the Arabs, who use it without desiring its fulfilment; (A'Obeyd, T;) but meant to incite, or instigate: (Msb:) some say that it means may thy hands become rich; but this is a mistake: (A'Obeyd, T:) and it is said to mean لِلّٰهِ دَرُّكَ [which see in art. در]: and some say that it is literally an imprecation: but the first assertion is the most worthy of respect, (that it is not meant as an imprecation,) and is corroborated by the saying, in a trad., اِنْعِمْ صَبَاحًا تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكَ [Mayest thou have a pleasant morning: may thine arms, or thy hands, &c.]. (TA.) تَرِبَتْ جَبِينُهُ [May his forehead (for so جبين here means, as it does in some other instances,) cleave to the dust, or earth,] was said by Mohammad in reproving a man, and is said to mean a prayer that the man might be frequent in prostrating himself in prayer. (TA from a trad.) And he said to one of his companions, تَرِبَتْ نَحْرُكَ [May the uppermost part of thy breast cleave to the dust, or earth], and the man was [afterwards] slain a martyr: therefore this is to be understood in its obvious sense. (TA.)

Accord. to Th, عُرُبًا أَتْرَبًا, in the Kur [lvi. 36], means [Showing love to their husbands;] like, or equal, unto them, or resembling them: which is a good rendering, as there is no begetting or bearing of children, [or rather as the latter word does not apply to females born or generated,] in that case.

(M.) تُرَابٌ and ↓ تُرْبٌ (Lth, T, S, M, A, Msb, K) and ↓ تَرْبٌ (CK [but this I do not find elsewhere]) and ↓ تُرْبَةً (S, A, * K) and ↓ تَرْبَآءُ (Lth, T, S, A, * K) and ↓ تُرَبَآءُ (S, M, K) and ↓ تَوْرَابٌ and ↓ تَوْرَبٌ and ↓ تَيْرَابٌ and ↓ تَيْرَبٌ [and ↓ تَيرَبٌ as will be seen below] and ↓ تَرِيبٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ تِرْيَبٌ, (M, K) accord. to MF ↓ تَرْيَبٌ, which is perhaps a dial. var., and accord. to some ↓ تِرْيِبٌ, and ↓ تَرْيَابٌ, (TA,) signify the same, (Lth, T, S, M, A, K,) and are words of which the meaning is well known: (A, K:) [i. e. Dust: and earth: generally the former; i. e. fine, dry, particles of earth; as when we say, الرِّيحُ تَسُوقُ التُّرَابَ The wind drives along the dust: but we also use the expression تُرَابٌ نَدٍ, meaning moist earth, the explanation, in Lexicons, of the word ثَرًى:] ?ثَرًى is تُرَابٌ; and when it ceases to be moist, it is still تراب, but is not then called ثرى: (Msb voce ثرى:) accord. to Fr, تُرَابٌ is a gen. n., from which is formed neither dual nor pl.: and its rel. n. is ↓ تُرَابِىٌّ: (TA:) [but when it means a kind of dust or earth, as ↓ تُرْبَةٌ also does sometimes, it has a pl.: in this case,] accord. to Lh, (M,) its pl. is أَتْرِبَةٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and تِرْبَانٌ [a pl. of mult.]; (S, M, K) and some add تُرْبَانٌ: (TA:) [and when ↓ تُرْبَةٌ has this, or a similar, meaning, it has for its pl. تُرَبٌ; as in the phrase أَطْيَبُ التُّرَبِ the best of the kinds of earth, occurring in this art. in the A:] but no pl. of any of the other syn. words mentioned above has been heard: (M, K:) AAF says that تراب is the pl. of ترب; [app. meaning that تُرَابٌ is a quasi-pl. n. (which is often called in lexicons a pl.) of تُرْبٌ;] but MF observes that this requires consideration: (TA:) Lth says that ↓ تُرْبٌ and تُرَابٌ are syn.; but when the fem. forms of these words are used, they say, ↓ أَرْضٌ طَيّبَةُ التُّرْبَة meaning Land that is good in respect of the natural constitution of its dust or earth; and ↓ تُرَابَةٌ when meaning A layer, or lamina, of dust or earth, such as is not perceived by the sight, but only by the imagination: (T:) or this last word and ↓ تُرْبَةٌ signify a portion of dust or earth: and الأَرْضِ ↓ تُرْبَةُ signifies the exterior, or external part, of the earth: (M:) and ↓ التَّرْبَآءُ, the earth (S, K) itself. (S.) The Arabs said, التُّرَابُ لَكَ [Dust, or earth, be thy lot]; using the nom. case, although meaning an imprecation, because the word is a simple subst., not an inf. n.: but Lh mentions the phrase التُّرَابَ لِلْأَبْعَدِ [Dust, or earth, be the lot of the remote from good]; saying that the accus. case is used, as though the phrase were an imprecation [of the ordinary kind, in which an inf. n. is used in the accus. case as the absolute complement of its own verb understood]. (M.) And لَهُ التُّرَابُ is a phrase used as meaning (assumed tropical:) [He has, or shall have, or may he have,] disappointment, (Msb in art. عهر,) or, nothing. (A 'Obeyd, Mgh in art. فرش.) لَهُ وَجَنْدَلًا ↓ تُرْبًا is also a form of imprecation, in which substs. in the proper sense of the term are used in the manner of inf. ns., put in the accus. case by reason of a verb unexpressed; as though it were for تَرِبَتْ يَدَاهُ وَجُنْدِلَتْ [May his arms, or his hands, cleave to the dust, or earth, and the stones, by reason of poverty]: and some of the Arabs put the nouns in the nom. case, still using the phrase in the same sense, as though they were in the accus. (M.) One says also, ↓ بِفِيهِ التَّوْرَبُ and ↓ التَّيْرَبُ and ↓ التِّيِرَبُ and ↓ التَّرْبَآءُ and ↓ التَّوْرَابُ [In his mouth is dust, or earth: or may dust, or earth, be in his mouth; i. e. may he die, or be in his grave]. (T.) It is said in a trad. that God created the ↓ تُرْبَة [meaning the dust, or soil, or, accord. to the TA the earth (أَرْض),] on the seventh day of the week; and created upon it the mountains on the first day; and the trees, on the second day. (T.) and one says, ↓ لَأَضْرِبَنَّهُ حَتَّى يَعَضَّ بِالتَّرْبَآءِ, (Lth, T, A,) meaning [I will assuredly beat him so that he shall bite] the dust, or earth. (Lth, T.) and ↓ بَيْنَهُمَا مَا بَيْنَ الجَرْبَآءِ وَالتَّرْبَآءِ, meaning [Between them two is the space that is between] the heaven and the earth.

(TA.) مَتْرَبَةٌ The suffering loss, and becoming poor, so as to cleave to the dust, or earth; an inf. n. of تَرِبَ: (M:) or poverty, or neediness: (S, TA:) [or (as a word of the same class as مَجْبَنَةُ and مَبْخَلَةٌ) a cause of cleaving to the dust, or earth: and hence,] ذُومَتْرَبَةٍ Poor, so as to be cleaving to the dust, or earth: (T:) or [simply] cleaving to the dust, or earth.

وثب

1 وَثَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وَثْبٌ and وُثُوبٌ (the latter agreeable with analogy, TA,) and وَثَبَانٌ and وَثِيبٌ (S, K) and وِثاَبٌ (K; but this is generally affirmed to be an inf. n. of وَاثَبَ, TA;) and ثِبَةٌ, (Ibn-Málik and others) He leaped; jumped; sprang; bounded: (S, K:) or he leaped down, or downwards. (Mgh, Msb, art. طفر.) b2: وَثَبَ المَوْضِعَ [He leaped, or jumped, upon, or over the place]. (TA.) b3: وَثَبَ إِلَى الشَّرَفِ وَثْبَةً (tropical:) [He made a single leap to eminence, or nobility]. (TA.) b4: وَثَبَ إِلَيْهِ [app., He leaped, or sprang up, or he hastened, to him]. (TA.) b5: الوُثُوبُ, except in the dial. of Himyer, signifies The act of rising, or standing up. (TA.) b6: It is also much used by the vulgar as signifying The act of hastening to a thing; as observed by MF, who is wrong in saying that there is nothing in the lexicons that favours its being so used. (TA.) A2: وَثَبَ, [aor. ـِ inf. n. وَثْبٌ, in the dial. of Himyer signifies He sat; sat down. (K, TA, from a trad.) ثِبْ in that dial. signifies Sit; sit down. (S.) It is related that Zeyd Ibn-Abd-Allah Ibn-Dárim came as an envoy to one of the kings of Himyer, and found him at a hunting-place belonging to him, on a high mountain, and he saluted him, and mentioned to him his lineage, or relationship; whereupon the king said to him ثِبْ, meaning إِجْلِسْ, Sit; but the man thought that he commanded him to leap from the mountain; and he said, “Thou shalt find me, O king, very obedient: ” then he leaped from the mountain, and perished. So the king said, “What ailed him? ” And they explained to him his case, and his mistake respecting the word: upon which he said لَيْسَتْ عِنْدَنَا عَرَبِيَّتْ مَنْ دَخَلَ ظَفَارِ حَمَّرَ i. e., [“ Arabic is not current with us: ” (for, probably, in the time of this king, the term عَرَبِيَّة was only applied to the general language of Arabia:) “ whoso entereth Dhafári,] let him learn [or, rather, speak, as MF says,] the Himyeree language. ” (Mz., 16th نوع.) [The principal facts of this anecdote are also mentioned in the S, on the authority of As.] By the king's saying عَرَبِيَّتْ was meant العَرَبِيَّةُ: the ة is pronounced ت in the case of a pause (which is the case here) in their dialect. (S.) Or, accord. to another relation of the above anecdote, the king said لَيْسَ عِنْدَنَا عَرَبِيَّتْ كَعَرَبِيَّتْكُمْ [“ Arabic like your Arabic is not current with us: ”] and this, says ISd, is the right reading in my opinion: for the king did not mean to exclude himself from the Arabs. (MF.) 2 وتّبه, inf. n. تَوْثِيبٌ, He seated him upon a cushion: (S, K:) asserted to be of the dial. of Himyer. (MF.) b2: وثّبه وِسَادَةً, (S, K,) in some copies of the K وَثَبَهُ, (TA,) He threw to him a cushion (S, L, K) that he might sit upon it: (S:) [app. in the dial. of Himyer]. b3: وَثَّبْتُهُ وِثَابًا I spread for him a bed, or the like.
