ريب

1 رَابَنِى, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـِ (M, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. رَيْبٌ (T, M, Mgh, Msb, &c.) and رِيبَةٌ, (M, K,) or the latter is a simple subst., (S, Msb,) It (a thing) occasioned in me disquiet, disturbance, or agitation, of mind: (Ksh and Bd in ii. 1:) [this is the primary signification; (see رِيبَةٌ;) a signification also borne by ↓ أَرَابَنِى; (see the verses of Khálid cited in this paragraph;) whence the other significations here expl. in what follows:] it (a thing) made me to doubt: (Msb: and in like manner رَابَهُ is expl. in the Mgh:) or it (a thing, M) caused me to have what is termed رِيبَة [i. e. doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion, or doubt combined with suspicion or evil opinion]; as also ↓ أَرَابَنِى: (M, K: in both of which this meaning is indicated, but not expressed:) but the latter is said by Lth to be bad: (T:) or, (T, M, Msb,) accord. to Az, (T, Msb,) the former signifies he, (T, M, *) or it, i. e. his case, (M, * Msb,) made me to know that there was on his part what is termed رِيبَة [i. e. something occasioning doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion, or doubt combined with suspicion or evil opinion]; (T, M, Msb;) made me to be certain, or sure, of it: (Msb:) and ↓ the latter signifies made me to think that there was in him what is so termed; (Sb, T, M, Msb, K;) without my being certain, or sure, of it: (Msb:) [Az says that] these are the right explanations of the two phrases: (T:) [or] the latter signifies also جَعَلَ فِىَّ الرِّيَبَةَ [he put into me, i. e. into my mind, doubt, or suspicion &c.]; (Sb, M, K; and in a similar manner أَرَبْتُهُ is expl. in the latter;) or أَوْهَمَنِى الرِّيبَةَ [he made me to think that which occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c.]: (K: and in like manner ارابهُ is expl. in the Ham p. 363:) and رِبْتُهُ signifies أَوْصَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ الرِّيبَةَ [I made doubt, or suspicion &c., or that which occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c., to come to him, or to reach him]; (K;) [app. by some act; for it is said that] رَابَهُ signifies أَتَاهُ بِرِيبَةٍ [he did to him a thing that occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c.]: (Ham ubi suprà:) or, (K,) accord. to Lh, the Arabs say, (M,) رَابَنِى أَمْرُهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. رَيْبٌ and رِيبَةٌ: when they speak allusively [with respect to the cause of doubt &c., not expressing it,] (إِذَا كَنَوْا [misinterpreted in the TA as meaning “ when they affix a pronoun to the verb,” for the meaning here intended is clearly shown by what follows,]) they prefix ا [to the verb, saying ↓ أَرَابَ, and أَرَبْتُ, &c., expl. in the latter part of this paragraph]; and when they do not speak allusively [with respect to the cause of doubt &c., but express it,] (إِذَا لَمْ يَكْنُوا) they reject that letter; but [so accord. to the M, but in the K “ or,”] it is allowable to say, الأَمْرُ ↓ أَرَابَنِى; (M, K;) i. e., to prefix the ا when the verb is made trans.: (M:) accord. to As, (T,) رَابَنِى [signifies he did what made me to doubt, or to have doubt, or suspicion &c, and what I disliked, or hated; for it] is said of a man when thou seest, on his part, what makes thee to doubt, &c., (مَا يُرِيبُكَ, [or مَا يَرِيبُكَ,]) and what thou dislikest, or hatest: (T, S:) and Hudheyl say, ↓ أَرَابَنِى, (T, S, Msb,) or ارابنى أَمْرُهُ, as As says on the authority of 'Eesà

Ibn-'Omar; (M;) and رِبْتُ and ↓ اِرْتَبْتُ, meaning I doubted: (Msb:) accord. to IAth, رَابَنِى

الشَّكُّ [an evident mistranscription for رابنى الشَّىْءُ] and ↓ ارابنى both mean شَكَّكَنِى وَ أَوْهَمَنِى الرِّيبَةَ بِهِ [i. e. the thing made me to doubt, and caused me to think that there was that which occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c., in it]; but when you are certain, or sure, of it, you say [only] رَابَنِى, without [an incipient] ا: (TA:) accord. to Lth, رَابَنِى

الأَمْرُ, inf. n. رَيْبٌ, signifies the thing, or event, [app. said only of that which is evil,] betided me, or befell me: and رَابَنِى أَمْرُهُ, his affair, or case, brought upon me doubt (شَكًّا [in the TA شَرًّا i. e. evil]) and fear. (T.) It is said in a trad., of Fátimeh, يَرِيبُنِى مَا يَرِيبُهَا, meaning That displeases and disquiets me which displeases and disquiets her. (TA.) And in another, respecting a gazelle lying curled in sleep, لَا يَرِيبُهُ أَحَدٌ بِشَىْءٍ, meaning No one shall oppose himself to it and disquiet it, or disturb it. (TA.) And in another, مَا رَابَكَ إِلَى قَطْعِهَا, i. e. What disquieted thee and constrained thee to cut it off? as Aboo-Moosà

thinks the phrase may be read: but see another reading voce رَابٌ. (TA.) And in another, دَعْ مَا وَ إِنَّ ↓ يَرِيبُكَ إِلَى مَا لَا يَريبُكَ فَإِنَّ الكَذِبَ رِيبَةٌ الصِّدْقَ طُمَأْنِينَةٌ, (Mgh, TA, *) or, as some relate it, ↓ يُرِيبُكَ, (TA,) i. e. Leave thou that which causeth thee to doubt, (Mgh, TA, *) and occasioneth in thee الرِّيبَة, which originally signifies disquiet, or disturbance, or agitation, of mind, [and hence suspicion &c., and betake thyself to that which will not cause thee to doubt, &c., for verily lying is a thing that occasions disquiet of mind, or doubt, or suspicion &c., and verily veracity is a thing that occasions tranquillity;] because the mind is not at rest when it doubts, but becomes tranquil when it is certain, or sure. (Mgh.) And the Hudhalee, (S, TA,) Khálid Ibn-Zuheyr, (TA,) says, يَا قَوْمِ مَا لِى وَ أَبَا ذُؤَيْبِ كُنْتُ إِذَا أَتَوْتُهُ مِنْ غَيْبِ يَشُمُّ عِطْفِى وَ يَجُرُّ ثَوْبِى

بِرَيْبِ ↓ كَأَنَّنِى أَرَبْتُهُ [O my people, what aileth me with Aboo-Dhueyb? I was (such that) when I came to him after absence, or from being absent, he would smell my side, or my armpit, and pull my garment, as though I disquieted his mind with doubt, or suspicion &c.]: (S and TA, in this art. and in art. بز; but in the latter with يَبُزُّ in the place of its syn. يَجُرُّ:) it is said in the L that اراب is trans. and intrans.; and that he who makes it trans. makes it syn. with رَابَ; and thus it is in the saying of Khálid cited above; the last hemistich of which is also related thus: كَأَنَّنِى قَدْ رِبْتُهُ بِرَيْبِ but ↓ اراب when intrans. signifies أَتَى بِرِيبَةٍ

[meaning he did an act that occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c.]; like as أَلَامَ signifies أَتَى بِمَا يُلَامُ عَلَيْهِ [he did an act for which he was to be blamed]: and agreeably with this signification is expl. the verse ascribed to El-Mutalemmis, or to Beshshár Ibn-Burdeh, أَخُوكَ الَّذِى إِنْ رِبْتَهُ قَالَ إِنَّمَا وَ إِنْ لَايَنْتَهُ لَانَ جَانِبُهْ ↓ أَرَبْتُ [Thy brother is he who, if thou make him to doubt, &c., (or if thou do to him an act occasioning doubt, or suspicion &c., as expl. in the Ham p. 363, where عَاتَبْتَهُ is put in the place of لَايَنْتَهُ,) says, Only I have done what occasions doubt, &c.; and if thou act gently with him, becomes gentle]: thus the verse is correctly related: he who relates it differently, saying أَرَبْتَ, [and thus I find it in two copies of the T,] asserts that إِنْ رِبْتَهُ means if thou make him of necessity to have doubt, or suspicion &c.; and ↓ اربت [here said in the TA to be “ with damm,” but this is evidently a mistranscription for “ with fet-h,” for it cannot mean with damm to the ا, as أُرِبْتَ does not bear an appropriate signification, nor can it mean with damm to the ت, as the explanation relates to the reading of اربت with fet-h to the ت,] means thou hast caused [me] to think that there was that which occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c., when it was not decidedly necessary. (TA.) 4 اراب, as a trans. verb: see 1, in eight places.

A2: As intrans., it signifies He (a man) was, or became, one in whom was something occasioning doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion, or doubt combined with suspicion or evil opinion; i. e. صَارَ ذَا رِيبَةِ: (Sb, T, S, M:) and he did a thing that occasioned doubt, or suspicion &c.: (As, T:) it is said when one is told something of a person, or thinks it, or imagines it: (Msb:) see 1, in the former half of the paragraph; and also, in three places, in the latter part of the same paragraph. Also It (a thing, or an affair, or a case,) was, or became, one in which was something occasioning doubt, or suspicion &c.; i. e. صَارَ ذَا رَيْبٍ (T, K) or ذا رِيبَةٍ. (M.) 5 تَرَيَّبَ see the next paragraph.8 ارتاب He doubted, (S, Msb, K,) فِيهِ [respecting him, or it]. (S.) See 1, in the former half of the paragraph. And ارتاب بِهِ He suspected him, or thought evil of him: (T, M, K:) or he saw on his part [or in him] what caused him to have doubt, or suspicion &c.; as also به ↓ تريّب; (Har p. 257;) and به ↓ استراب; i. e. رَأَى مِنْهُ مَا يَرِيبُهُ: (S, K, and Har ubi suprà:) the last used by [the tribe of] Hudheyl. (TA.) b2: [It often means particularly He was sceptical in matters of religion.]10 استراب He fell into that which occasioned doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion; meaning he feared so that he doubted of safety or security: (Har pp. 256 and 257:) [he conceived doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion:] he doubted: and became infected with suspicion or evil opinion. (Idem p. 309.) See also 8.

رَابٌ Want, or need. (TA.) Hence, in a trad., مَا رَبُكُمْ إِلَيْهِ What is [the reason of] your want of him? or your wanting to ask him? (TA.) And, in another trad., مَا رَابُكَ إِلَى قَطْعِهَا What is [the reason of] thy wanting to cut it off? thus, says El-Khattábee, they relate it, with damm to the ب: but IAth says that it is properly مَا أَرَبُكَ, meaning the same: or, accord. to Aboo-Moosà, the right reading may be ما رَابَكَ, expl. in the preceding paragraph. (TA.) رَيْبٌ is an inf. n. of 1, (T, M, Mgh, Msb, &c.,) as also ↓ رِيبَةٌ, (M, K,) or the latter is a simple subst.: (S, Msb:) the primary signification of the latter [and of the former also when it is used as a simple subst.] is Disquiet, disturbance, or agitation, of mind: (Ksh and Bd in ii. 1:) [and hence] the former signifies doubt; (T, S, Msb;) as also ↓ the latter; (S, Mgh;) because doubt disquiets, or disturbs, the mind: (Ksh and Bd ubi suprà, and Mgh:) and opinion; syn. ظَنٌّ: (Msb:) and ↓ the latter, (S, M, A, Mgh, K,) and the former also, (M, A, K,) doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion; syn. تُهَمَةٌ (S, M, A, Mgh, K) and ظِنَّةٌ: (M, A, K:) or the former, [and ↓ the latter also,] doubt combined with suspicion or evil opinion: (IAth, TA:) and a thing, or an event, or a case, that occasions one doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion, or doubt combined with suspicion or evil opinion; i. e. مَا رَابَكَ مِنْ أَمْرٍ: (S, TA:) [in this last sense, the latter is the more common: hence,] lying is termed رِيبَةٌ in a trad. cited above: see 1: (Mgh:) the ↓ pl. of the latter is رِيَبٌ. (Msb.) A man, and a thing or an event or a case, is said to be ↓ ذُو رِيبَةٍ [as meaning Having in him, or it, something occasioning doubt, or suspicion &c.]. (A.) [لَا رَيْبَ often occurs as meaning There is no doubt; without doubt; undoubtedly.] b2: Hence, رَيْبُ الزَّمَانِ The accidents, or evil accidents, of time, (Ksh and Bd ubi suprà, [in Fleischer's ed. of the latter رِيَب الزمان, which is more agreeable with the explanation, but رَيْب الزمان is more usual,]) that disquiet, or disturb, the minds and hearts: (Ksh:) and رَيْبُ المَنُونِ (S, A) [which likewise signifies] the accidents, or evil accidents, of time: (S:) and رَيْبُ الدَّهْرِ signifies the same; i. e. صَرْفُهُ, (M, K,) or صُرُوفُهُ, (T, Msb,) and حَوَادِثُهُ. (T. [This is said in the TA to be tropical; but I do not find it so characterized in the A.]) b3: [Hence, likewise,] رَيْبٌ also signifies A want; a needful, or requisite, thing, affair, or business; syn. حَاجَةٌ. (S, A, Msb, K.) A poet says, (S,) namely, Kaab Ibn-Málik El-Ansáree, (TA,) قَضَيْنَا مِنْ تِهَامَةَ كُلَّ رَيْبٍ

وَ خَيْبَرَ ثُمَّ أَجْيَيْنَا السُّيُوفَا [We accomplished, from Tihámeh, every want, and from Kheyber: then we gave rest to our swords]. (S.) A2: [ريب mentioned by Freytag as applied in art. دلس of the S to a certain plant, and written رَيْب in both of my copies of the S in that art., is a mistake for رَبَب, which is the reading in the TA, pl. of رِبَّةٌ.]

رِيبَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in six places. b2: [It often means particularly Scepticism in matters of religion.]

أَمْرٌ رَيَّابٌ A thing, or an event, or a case, that frightens, or terrifies. (M, K.) رَائِبٌ [act. part. n. of 1; Causing, or occasioning, doubt, or suspicion or evil opinion, &c.] IAar says that Aboo-Bekr is related to have said, in his charge to 'Omar, عَلَيْكَ بِالرَّائِبِ مِنَ الأُمُورِ وَ إِيَّاك وَ الرَّائِبَ مِنْهَا, which Th explains as meaning Keep thou to what is clear, free from dubiousness or confusedness, of affairs, and beware thou of, or avoid thou, what has in it dubiousness, or confusedness, thereof: (T, TA:) the first is from رَابَ of which the aor. is يَرُوبُ, said of milk; and the second is from رَابَ of which the aor. is يَرِيبُ. (TA.) [See also a verse cited voce رَائِبٌ in art. روب, and my remark thereon.]

مُرِيبٌ, applied to a man, (T, S, A,) and to a thing or an event, (M, A,) i. q. ذُو رِيبَةٍ [expl. above, voce رَيْبٌ]. (T, S, M, A.) إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا فِى

شَكٍّ مُرِيبٍ, in the Kur xxxiv. last verse, means Verily they were in doubt causing to fall into suspicion or evil opinion: or it means ذِى رِيبَةٍ

[having in it something occasioning suspicion &c.]: (Ksh and Bd:) or ذِى رَيْبٍ [which means the same: or attended with disquiet, or disturbance, or agitation, of mind]: (M, TA:) [see its verb, 4:] it may be from the trans. or from the intrans. verb. (Ksh.) مُرْتَابٌ Doubting [or suspecting]. (Msb.) b2: [It often means particularly Sceptical, or a sceptic, in matters of religion.

A2: And مُرْتَابٌ فِيهِ, or بِهِ, Doubted of, or suspected.]

ظم

أ1 ظَمِئَ, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. ظَمَأٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and ظَمْءٌ (TA) and ظَمَآءٌ (T, M, K) and ظَمَآءَةٌ, (M, K, TA,) in one copy of the K ظَمْأَة, (TA,) He thirsted, or was thirsty: (S, M, Msb, K:) or as some say, he thirsted in the slightest degree. (M, TA.) b2: Hence, (M,) ظَمِئَ إِلَى لِقَائِهِ (tropical:) He desired, or longed, [or, as we often say, thirsted,] to meet with him. (S, M, K, * TA.) 2 ظَمَّاَ see the next paragraph.4 اظمأهُ, (T, * S, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِظْمَآءٌ; (T;) and ↓ ظمّأهُ, (T, * Msb, K,) inf. n. تَظْمِئَةٌ; (T, S;) He made him to thirst: (S, Msb, K:) [or to thirst most vehemently: or to thirst in the slightest degree: see 1.] b2: And (K) (tropical:) He made him lean, or lank, namely, a horse, (T, * K, TA,) by sweating him. (TA.) [See also 4 in art. ظمى.]5 تظمّأ He constrained himself to endure with patience a state of thirst. (A, TA.) ظِمْءٌ a subst. from ظَمِئَ (S, M, K) in both of its senses; (M, K;) [i. e.] it signifies Thirst: (MA:) [or most vehement thirst: or the slightest degree of thirst:] pl. أَظْمَآءٌ. (MA.) b2: [and (tropical:) Desire, or a longing, (or, as we often say, a thirsting,) to meet with a person. See 1.] b3: And (S, M, K) The time, or interval, or period, between two drinkings, or waterings, (T, S, M, K,) in the coming of camels to water: (T:) and the keeping of camels from the water [during that interval, i. e.] until the extreme limit of the coming thereto: (S:) pl. أَظْمَآءٌ. (T, S, M.) The shortest ظِمْءٌ of camels is that termed غِبٌّ, i. e., when they come to the water one day and return, and are in the place of pasture a day, and come to the water [again] on the third day; the interval between their two drinkings being termed a ظِمْء: this is during the greatest heat: but when Suheyl [i. e. Canopus] rises [aurorally, which it did in Central Arabia, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, on the 4th of August, O. S.], they increase the ظِمْء, so that the camels remain in the place of pasture two days, and come to the water on the fourth; and one says, وَرَدَتْ رِبْعًا: then follow the خِمْس and the سِدْس to the عِشْر: and the interval between their two drinkings is termed ظِمْءٌ, whether long or short. (T.) One says, مَا بَقِىَ مِنْ عُمُرِهِ إِلَّا ظِمْءُ الحِمَارِ, (T, S, * K, * TA,) meaning There remained not of his life save a little; [lit., save the period between the two drinkings of the ass;] (S, K, * TA;) because there is no beast that bears thirst for a shorter time than the ass; (T, S, * K, * TA;) for he comes to the water in summer every day twice. (T, TA.) b4: الظِّمْءُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The period from birth to death; (K;) or so ظِمْءُ الحَيَاةِ. (S, M, TA.) b5: ظِمْوٌ is a dial. var. of ظِمْءٌ. (T and M in art. ظمو.) ظَمِئٌ: see the next paragraph.

ظَمْآنُ, (T, S, M, Msb, &c.,) fem. ظَمْأَى, (T, S, M, A, L, Msb,) both imperfectly decl.; (T;) or ظَمْآنٌ, fem. ظَمْآنَةٌ; (K; [but this requires consideration, for its correctness is extremely doubtful;]) and ↓ ظَمِئٌ, (so in the K accord. to the TA, and so in my MS. copy of the K,) like كَتِفٌ, [agreeably with analogy as part. n. of ظَمِئَ, and therefore probably correct,] (TA,) or ↓ ظَمِىْءٌ, (so in a copy of the M and in the CK,) fem. [of the former] ظَمِئَةٌ, like فَرِحَةٌ, mentioned by Ibn-Málik, but generally held to be disused; (MF, TA;) and ظَامٍ, like رَامٍ; (TA; [app. for ↓ ظَامِئٌ;]) Thirsty: (S, M, Msb, K:) or most vehemently thirsty: (T, M, K:) or thirsty in the slightest degree: (M, TA:) pl. (of the first, M, Msb, and of the second, M, or of all, mase. and fem., TA) ظِمَآءٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and ظُمَآءٌ, which is extr., (K, TA,) being of a form applying to only about ten words, (TA,) mentioned on the authority of Lh, (K, TA,) by ISd in the “ Mukhassas. ” (TA.) b2: [Hence,] one says, أَنَا ظَمْآنُ إِلَى لِقَائِكَ (tropical:) I am desirous, or longing, [or, as we often say, thirsting,] to meet with thee. (A, TA.) b3: And وَجْهٌ ظَمْآنُ (tropical:) A face having little flesh, (T, TA,) the skin of which adheres to the bone, and the sap of which is little: (TA:) an expression of praise: contr. of وَجْهٌ رَيَّانُ, which is [said to be] an expression of dispraise. (A, TA.) And فَرَسٌ ظَمْآنُ الشَّوَى (assumed tropical:) A horse having little flesh upon the legs: (T in art. روى:) and so أَظْمَى الشَّوَى. (T in art. ظمى.) And سَاقٌ ظَمْأَى (assumed tropical:) A lean shank: (T, TA:) and so ساق ظَمْيَآءُ. (S and M and K in art. ظمى.) And عَيْنٌ ظَمْأَى (assumed tropical:) An eye having a thin, or delicate, lid: (M, TA:) and so عين ظَمْيَآءُ. (S and M and K in art. ظمى.)

(TA.) b4: And رِيحٌ ظَمْأَى (assumed tropical:) A wind that is hot, (As, T, K,) thirsty, not gentle, (K,) and without moisture. (As, T.) ظَمِىْءٌ: see ظَمْآنُ, first sentence.

ظَمَآءَةٌ (assumed tropical:) Evilness of nature, of a man, and meanness of disposition, and deficiency of equity to associates: (En-Nadr, T, K:) originating from the fact that he who is given to drink, if of an evil nature, does not act equitably to his associates. (T.) ظَامِئٌ: see ظَمْآنُ, first sentence.

ثغر

1 ثَغَرَهُ, (T, A, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. ثَغْرٌ, (T,) He broke it; (T, A;) namely, a part of a wall; (A;) he demolished it: this is [said to be] the primary signification: he demolished it, or pulled it down; namely, a wall: (T:) and he broke it (namely, anything, [as a wall and a vessel, &c.,] A) so as to make a gap in it, or a hollow in its edge. (A, K.) b2: Also, (IAar, S, Msb, K,) aor. as above, (Msb, K,) He broke his ثَغْر [or front teeth], (S, Msb, K,) or his teeth. (IAar, and TA as from the K.) And ثُغِرَ, in the pass. form, inf. n. ثُغُورٌ, He (a boy) had his ثَغْر [or front teeth] broken. (Msb.) b3: ثَغَرْتُ سِنَّهُ I pulled out his tooth. (El-Hujeymee, TA.) and ثُغِرَ He (a man) had a tooth, or teeth, pulled out. (As, TA.) b4: Also ثُغِرَ, (Az, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. ثَغْرٌ, (Az, Msb,) He (a boy) shed his central milk-teeth, (Az, S, Mgh, K,) or his ثَغْر [or front teeth]: (Az, Msb:) or ↓ أَثْغَرَ has this latter meaning, (A, K,) or ↓ اِتَّغَرَ; (As, TA;) and ثَغِرَ, (K,) or ↓ اِتَّغَرَ, (Sh, TA,) or ↓ اِتَّغَرَ, (Msb,) signifies he shed his teeth: (Sh, Msb, K:) ثُغِرَ is said to have this last signification in the Kifáyet el-Mutahaffidh; and ↓ اثّغر and ↓ اتّغر are there said to have the contr. signification, explained below [see 8]. (Msb.) b5: ثُغِرَ also signifies He had his mouth bruised; and so ↓ أُثْغِرَ. (K.) A2: ثَغَرَ الثُّلْمَةَ, aor. ـَ He stopped up, or obstructed, the gap, or breach: thus the verb bears two contr. significations. (K.) And ثَغَرْنَاهُمْ We stopped up, or obstructed, against them the gaps, or passes of the mountain; (S, TA;) we stopped up, or obstructed, against them the place of exit, so that they knew not what way to take. (A.) 4 أَثْغَرَ see 1, in two places: b2: and 8 also, in two places.8 اِتَّغَرَ (Az, Sh, S, Mgh, Msb, K) and اِثَّغَرَ (Az, Mgh, Msb) and اِدَّغَرَ, (K,) originally اِثْتَغَرَ, (Az, S, K,) He (a boy) bred his central milkteeth, (S,) or his ثَغْر [or front teeth]; (Sh, * Msb, K;) as also ↓ أَثْغَرَ: (K:) or he bred his teeth after the former ones had fallen out: (Az, Mgh:) and ↓ أَثْغَرَ, inf. n. إِثْغَارٌ, of the measure of أَكْرَمَ, inf. n. إِكْرَامٌ, he grew his ثَغْر [or front teeth] after the former ones had fallen out: by some, اثّغر and اتّغر are used specially in relation to a beast: the Benoo-Kiláb thus used the former; not in relation to a boy.

الهَرَمانِ:
هي أهرام كثيرة إلّا أن المشهور منها اثنان، واختلف الناس في أهرام مصر اختلافا جمّا وتكاد أن تكون حقيقة أقوالهم فيها كالمنام إلّا أنّا نحكي من ذلك ما يحسن عندنا، فمن ذلك ما ذكره أبو عبد الله محمد بن سلامة بن جعفر القضاعي في كتاب خطط مصر أنه وجد في قبر من قبور الأوائل صحيفة فالتمسوا لها قارئا فوجدوا شيخا في دير القلمون فقرأها فإذا فيها: إنا نظرنا فيما تدل عليه النجوم فرأينا أنّ آفة نازلة من السماء وخارجة من الأرض ثم نظرنا فوجدناه ماء مفسدا للأرض وحيوانها ونباتها، فلما تمّ اليقين من ذلك عندنا قلنا لملكنا سوريد بن سهلوق: مر ببناء افرونيات وقبر لك وقبور لأهل بيتك، فبنى لنفسه الهرم الشرقي وبنى لأخيه هو جيب الهرم الغربي وبنى لابن هو جيب الهرم المؤزّر وبنيت الافرونيات في أسفل مصر وأعلاها وكتبنا في حيطانها علما غامضا من معرفة النجوم وعللها والصنعة والهندسة والطبّ وغير ذلك مما ينفع ويضر ملخّصا مفسرا لمن عرف كلامنا وكتابتنا، وانّ هذه الآفة نازلة بأقطار العالم وذلك عند نزول قلب الأسد في أول دقيقــة من رأس السرطان وتكون الكواكب عند نزوله إياها في هذه المواضع من الفلك: الشمس والقمر في أول دقيقــة من رأس الحمل، وزحل في درجة وثمان وعشرين دقيقــة من الحمل، والمشتري في الحوت في تسع وعشرين درجة وثمان وعشرين دقيقــة، والمريخ في الحوت في تسع وعشرين درجة وثلاث دقائق، والزهرة في الحوت في ثمان وعشرين درجة ودقائق، وعطارد في الحوت في
سبع وعشرين درجة ودقائق، والجوزهر في الميزان وأوج القمر في الأسد في خمس درج ودقائق، ثم نظرنا هل يكون بعد هذه الآفة كون مضرّ بالعالم فاحتسبنا الكواكب فإذا هي تدلّ على أنّ آفة من السماء نازلة إلى الأرض وأنها ضدّ الآفة الأولى وهي نار محرقة لأقطار العالم، ثم نظرنا متى يكون هذا الكون المضر فرأيناه يكون عند حلول قلب الأسد في آخر دقيقــة من الدرجة الخامسة عشرة من الأسد ويكون إيليس وهو الشمس معه في دقيقــة واحدة متصلة بستورنس وهو زحل من تثليث الرامي ويكون المشتري وهو زاويس في أول الأسد في آخر احتراقه ومعه المرّيخ وهو آرس في دقيقــة ويكون سلين وهو القمر في الدلو مقابلا لإيليس مع الذنب في اثنتين وعشرين ويكون كسوف شديد له بثلث سلين القمر ويكون عطارد في بعده الأبعد أمامها مقبلين أما الزهرة فللاستقامة وأما عطارد فللرجعة، قال الملك:
فهل عندكم من خبر توقفوننا عليه غير هذين الاثنين؟
قالوا: إذا قطع قلب الأسد ثلثي سدس أدواره لم يبق من حيوان الأرض متحرّك إلّا تلف فإذا استتمّ أدواره تحلّلت عقود الفلك وسقط على الأرض، قال لهم: ومتى يكون يوم انحلال الفلك؟ قالوا:
اليوم الثاني من بدو حركة الفلك، فهذا ما كان في القرطاس، فلما مات سوريد دفن في الهرم الشرقي ودفن هوجيب في الهرم الغربي ودفن كرورس في الهرم الذي أسفله من حجارة أسوان وأعلاها كدان، ولهذه الأهرام أبواب في آزاج تحت الأرض طول كلّ أزج منها مائة وخمسون ذراعا، فأما باب الهرم الشرقي فمن الناحية البحرية، وأما باب الهرم الغربي فمن الناحية الغربية، وأما باب الهرم المؤزر فمن الناحية القبلية، وفي الأهرام من الذهب وحجارة الزمرد ما لا يحتمله الوصف، وإنّ مترجم هذا الكتاب من القبطي إلى العربي أجمل التاريخات إلى أول يوم من توت الأحد وطلوع شمسه سنة خمس وعشرين ومائتين من سني العرب فبلغت أربعة آلاف وثلاثمائة وإحدى وعشرين سنة لسني الشمس ثم نظر كم مضى من الطوفان إلى يومه هذا فوجده ثلاثة آلاف وتسعمائة وإحدى وأربعين سنة وتسعة وخمسين يوما فألقاها من هذه الجملة فبقي معه ثلاثمائة وتسع وتسعون سنة وخمسة أيام فعلم أن هذا الكتاب المؤرّخ كتب قبل الطوفان بهذه السنين، وحكى ابن زولاق: ومن عجائب مصر أمر الهرمين الكبيرين في جانبها الغربي ولا يعلم في الدنيا حجر على حجر أعلى ولا أوسع منها، طولها في الأرض أربعمائة ذراع في أربعمائة، وكذلك علوها أربعمائة ذراع، وفي أحدهما قبر هرمس وهو إدريس، عليه السّلام، وفي الآخر قبر تلميذه أغا تيمون، وإليهما تحج الصابئة، قال:
وكانا أولا مكسوّين بالديباج وعليهما مكتوب:
وقد كسوناهما بالديباج فمن استطاع بعدنا فليكسهما بالحصير، قال: وقال حكيم من حكماء مصر:
إذا رأيت الهرمين ظننت أن الإنس والجنّ لا يقدرون على عمل مثلهما ولم يتولّهما إلا خالق الأرض، ولذلك قال بعض من رآهما: ليس من شيء إلا وأنا أرحمه من الدهر إلا الهرمين فإني أرحم الدهر منهما، قال عبيد الله مؤلف هذا الكتاب: وقد رأيت الهرمين وقلت لمن كان في صحبتي غير مرّة إن الذي يتصوّر في ذهني أنه لو اجتمع كل من بأرض مصر من أولها إلى آخرها على سعتها وكثرة أهلها وصمدوا بأنفسهم عشر سنين مجتهدين لما أمكنهم أن يعملوا مثل الهرمين وما سمعت بشيء تعظّم عمارته فجئته إلا ورأيته دون
صفته إلا الهرمين فإن رؤيتهما أعظم من صفتهما، قال ابن زولاق: ولم يمرّ الطوفان على شيء إلا وأهلكه وقد مرّ عليهما لأن هرمس وهو إدريس، عليه السّلام، قبل نوح وقبل الطوفان، وأما الهرم الذي بدير هرميس فإنه قبر قرباس وكان فارس مصر وكان يعدّ بألف فارس فإذا لقيهم وحده لم يقوموا له وانهزموا، وإنه مات فجزع عليه الملك والرعية ودفنوه بدير هرميس وبنوا عليه الهرم مدرجا وبقي طينه الذي بني به مع الحجارة من الفيوم وهذا معروف إذا نظر إلى طينه لم يعرف له معدن إلا بالفيوم وليس بمنف ووسيم له شبه من الطين، وقال ابن عفير وابن عبد الحكم: وفي زمان شداد بن عاد بنيت الأهرام فيما ذكر عن بعض المحدثين ولم نجد عند أحد من أهل العلم من أهل مصر معرفة في الأهرام ولا خبرا ثبت إلا أن الذي يظن أنها بنيت قبل الطوفان فلذلك خفي خبرها ولو بنيت بعده لكان خبرها عند الناس، ولذلك يقول بعضهم:
حسرت عقول ذوي النّهى الأهرام، ... واستصغرت لعظيمها الأحلام
ملس منبّقة البناء شواهق، ... قصرت لغال دونهنّ سهام
لم أدر حين كبا التفكّر دونها، ... واستوهمت بعجيبها الأوهام
أقبور أملاك الأعاجم هنّ أم ... طلّسم رمل كنّ أم أعلام
وقال ابن عفير: لم تزل مشايخ مصر يقولون إن الأهرام بناها شداد بن عاد وهو الذي بنى المغار وجند الأجناد، والمغار والأجناد هي الدفائن، وكانوا يقولون بالرجعة فكان إذا مات أحدهم دفنوا معه ماله كائنا ما كان وإن كان صانعا دفنت معه آلته، وذكر أن الصابئة تحجّها، ومن عجائب مصر الهرمان إذ ليس على وجه الأرض بناء باليد حجر على حجر أطول منهما وإذا رأيتهما ظننت أنهما جبلان موضعان، ولذلك قيل: ليس من شيء إلا وأنا أرحمه من الدهر إلا الهرمين فإني أرحم الدهر منهما، وعلى ركن أحدهما صنم كبير يقال إنه بلهيت ويقال إنه طلسم للرمل لئلا يغلب على كورة الجيزة وإن الذي طلسمه بلهيت، وسبب تطلسمه أن الرمال غربيه وشماليه كثيرة متكاثفة فإذا انتهت إليه لا تتعداه، وهو صورة رأس آدمي ورقبته ورأسا كتفيه كالأسد وهو عظيم جدّا، حدثني من رأى نسرا عشش في أذنه:
وهو صورة مليحة كأن الصانع فرغ منه عن قرب، وهو مصبوغ بحمرة موجودة إلى الآن مع تطاول المدة وتقدم الأعوام، قال المعرّي:
تضلّ العقول الهبرزيّات رشدها، ... ولا يسلم الرأي القويم من الأفن
وقد كان أرباب الفصاحة كلما ... رأوا حسنا عدّوه من صنعة الجنّ
وقال أبو الصّلت: وأي شيء أعجب وأغرب بعد مقدورات الله، عز وجل، ومصنوعاته من القدرة على بناء جسم من أعظم الحجارة مربع القاعدة مخروط الشكل ارتفاع عموده ثلاثمائة ذراع ونحو سبعة عشر ذراعا تحيط به أربعة سطوح مثلثات متساويات الأضلاع طول كل ضلع منها أربعمائة ذراع وستون ذراعا وهو مع هذا العظم من إحكام الصنعة وإتقان الهندام وحسن التقدير بحيث لم يتأثر إلى هلمّ جرّا بتضاعف الرياح وهطل السحاب وزعزعة الزلازل، وهذه صفة كل واحد من الهرمين المحاذيين للفسطاط 26- 5
من الجانب الغربي على ما شاهدناه منهما، قال:
واتفق أن خرجنا يوما فلما طفنا بهما وكثر تعجبنا منهما تعاطينا القول فيهما فقال بعضنا يعني نفسه:
بعيشك هل أبصرت أحسن منظرا، ... على طول ما أبصرت، من هرمي مصر
أطافا بأعنان السماء وأشرفا ... على الجوّ إشراف السّماك أو النسر
وقد وافيا نشزا من الأرض عاليا ... كأنهما ثديان قاما على صدر
قال: وزعم قوم أن الأهرام الموجودة بمصر قبور الملوك العظام آثروا أن يتميزوا بها عن سائر الملوك بعد مماتهم كما تميزوا عنهم في حياتهم وتوخوا أن يبقى ذكرهم بسببها على تطاول الدهور وتراخي العصور، ولما وصل المأمون إلى مصر أمر بنقبهما فنقب أحد الهرمين المحاذيين للفسطاط بعد جهد شديد وعناء طويل فوجد في داخله مهاو ومراق يهول أمرها ويعسر السلوك فيها ووجد في أعلاها بيت مكعب طول كل ضلع من أضلاعه ثمانية أذرع وفي وسطه حوض رخام مطبق فلما كشف غطاؤه لم يجدوا فيه غير رمة بالية قد أتت عليها العصور الخالية فأمر المأمون بالكف عن نقب ما سواه، وفي سفح أحد الهرمين صورة آدميّ عظيم مصبغة وقد غطى الرمل أكثرها وهي عجيبة غريبة، وفيها يقول ظافر الحداد الإسكندري:
تأمّل بنية الهرمين وانظر ... وبينهما أبو الهول العجيب
كعمّاريّتين على رحيل ... لمحبوبين بينهما رقيب
وماء النيل تحتهما دموع، ... وصوت الريح عندهما نحيب
قال: ومن الناس من زعم أن هرمس الأول المدعو بالمثلث بالحكمة وهو الذي يسميه العبرانيون أخنوخ ابن يرد بن مهلائيل بن قينان بن أنوش بن شيث بن آدم وهو إدريس النبي، عليه السّلام، استدل من أحوال الكواكب على كون الطوفان فأمر ببنيان الأهرام وإيداعها الأموال وصحائف العلوم إشفاقا عليها من الذهاب والدروس وحفظا لها واحتياطا عليها، وقيل إن الذي بناها سوريد بن سهلوق بن سرياق، وقال البحتري في قصيدة:
ولا بسنان بن المشلّل عند ما ... بنى هرميها من حجارة لابها
وذكر قوم أنه قد كتب على الهرمين بالمسند: إني بنيتهما فمن يدّعي قوة في ملكه فليهدمهما فإن الهدم أيسر من البناء، وذكر أن حجارتهما نقلت من الجبل الذي بين طرا وحلوان، وهما قريتان من مصر، وأثر ذلك باق إلى الآن.

(O.) قَدْ is a noun and a particle: (S, O, Mughnee, K:) and as a noun it is used in two ways. (Mughnee, K.) b2: (I) It is a noun syn. with حَسْبُ; (S, O, Mughnee, K;) generally used indeclinably; (Mughnee, K;) thus accord. to the Basrees; with the د quiescent; (TA;) because resembling قَدْ the particle in respect of the letters composing it, and many other particles in respect of its form, (Mughnee, TA,) such as عَنْ and بَلْ &c.: (TA:) one says, قَدْ زَيْدٍ دِرْهَمٌ [The sufficiency of Zeyd (i. e. what is sufficient for Zeyd) is a dirhem], (Mughnee, K,) with the د quiescent; (Mughnee, * K, * TA;) and قَدِى (S, O) and قَدْنِى (S, O, Mughnee) [both] meaning حَسْبِى [My sufficiency (i. e. what is sufficient for me)]; (S, O;) the ن in قَدْنِى being inserted in order to preserve the quiescence [of the final letter of the noun] because this is the original characteristic of what they make indeclinable; (Mughnee;) but the insertion of the ن in this case is anomalous, for it is [by rule] only added in verbs, by way of precaution, [to prevent the confusion of the pronominal affix of the verb and that of the noun,] as in ضَرَبَنِى: (S, O:) [see, however, in the next sentence, an explanation of قَدْنِى accord. to which the ن is inserted regularly:] accord. to Yaakoob, using قَدْ in the sense of حَسْبُ, one says, مَا لَكَ عِنْدِى إِلَّا هٰذَا فَقَدْ i. e. فَقَطْ [There is nothing for thee with me, or nothing due to thee in my possession, except this, and it is a thing sufficient, or it is enough, فَقَطْ being held to signify properly فَحَسْبُ, but it is commonly used as meaning and no more]; and he asserts it [i. e. قَدْ] to be a substitute [for قَطْ]: (M:) and it is also used declinably; (Mughnee, K;) thus accord. to the Koofees; (TA;) but this is rare: (Mughnee:) one says قَدُ زَيْدٍ, making it marfooa, (Mughnee, K,) like as one says حَسْبُهُ; and قَدِى without ن [as mentioned above,] like as one says حَسْبِى. (Mughnee.) b3: (2) It is also a verbal noun, syn. with يَكْفِى: one says, قَدْ زَيْدًا دِرْهَمٌ [A dirhem suffices, or will suffice, Zeyd], and قَدْنِى دِرْهَمٌ [A dirhem suffices, or will suffice, me]; (Mughnee, K;) like as one says يَكْفِى زَيْدًا دِرْهَمٌ, and يَكْفِيْنِى دِرْهَمٌ. (Mughnee, K. *) A2: As a particle, it is used peculiarly with a verb, (Mughnee, K,) [i. e.] as such it is not preposed to anything except a verb, (S, O,) either a pret. or an aor. , (TA,) from which it is not separated unless by an oath, (Mughnee,) such as is perfectly inflected, enunciative, (Mughnee, K,) not an imperative, (TA,) affirmative, and free from anything that would render it mejzoom or man-soob, and from what is termed حَرْف تَنْفِيس [i. e.

سَوْفُ and its variants]: and it has six meanings. (Mughnee, K.) b2: (1) It denotes expectation: (M, Mughnee, K:) and when it is with an aor. , this is evident; (Mughnee;) one says قَدْ يَقْدَمُ الغَائِبُ, (Mughnee, K,) meaning It is expected that the absent will come: (TA:) and most affirm that it is thus used with a pret.: (Mughnee:) accord. to some, (M,) it is used in reply to the saying لَمَّا يَفْعَلْ [i. e. “ He has not yet done ” such a thing, which implies expectation that he would do it]; (S, M, O;) the reply being, قَدْفَعَلَ [Already he has done the thing]: (M:) and Kh asserts that it is used in reply to persons expecting information; (S, M, * O, Mughnee;) [for to such] you say, قَدْ مَاتَ فَلَانٌ [Already such a one has died]; but if one inform him who does not expect it, he does not say thus, but he says [merely] مَاتَ فُلَانٌ: (S, O:) thus some say قَدْ رَكِبَ الأَمِيرُ [Already the commander has mounted his horse] to him who expects his mounting: some, however, disallow that قَدْ is used to denote expectation with the pret. because the pret. denotes what is already past; and hence it appears that those who affirm it to be so used mean that the pret. denotes what was expected before the information: (Mughnee: [in which it is added, with some other observations, that, in the opinion of its author, it does not denote expectation even with the aor. ; because the saying يَقْدَمُ الغَئِبُ denotes expectation without قَدْ:]) MF says, What we have been orally taught by the sheykhs in ElAndalus is this, that it is a particle denoting the affirmation of truth, or certainty, when it occurs before a pret., and a particle denoting expectation when it occurs before a future. (TA.) b3: (2) It denotes the nearness of the past to the present: (O, Mughnee, K:) so in the saying قَدْ قَامَ زَيْدٌ [Zeyd has just, or just now, stood; a meaning often intended by saying merely, has stood]; (Mughnee, K;) for this phrase without قد may mean the near past and the remote past; (Mughnee;) and so in the saying of the muëdhdhin, قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاةُ [The time of the rising to prayer has just come, or simply has come]: (O:) [and, when thus used, it is often immediately preceded by the pret. or aor. of the verb كَانَ; thus you say, كَانَ قَدْ ذَهَبَ He had just, or simply had, gone away; and يَكُونُ قَدْ ذَهَبَ He will, or shall, have just, or simply have gone away:] and accord. to the Basrees, except Akh, it must be either expressed or understood immediately before a pret. used as a denotative of state; as in [the saying in the Kur ii. 247,] وَمَا لَنَا أَلَّا نُقَاتِلُ فِى سَبِيلِ اللّٰهِ وَقَدْ أُخْرِجْنَا مِنْ دِيَارِنَا وَأَبْنَائِنَا [And what reason have we that we should not fight in the cause of God when we have been expelled from our abodes and our children?]; and in [the saying in the Kur iv. 92,] أَوْ جَاؤُوكُمْ حَصِرَتْ صُدُورُهُمْ أنْ يُقَاتِلُوكَمْ [Or who come to you, their bosoms being contracted so that they are incapable of fighting you, or their bosoms shrinking from fighting you]; but the Koofees and Akh says that this is not required, because of the frequent occurrence of the pret. as a denotative of state without قَدْ, and [because] the primary rule is that there should be no meaning, or making, anything to be understood, more especially in the case of that which is in frequent use: (Mughnee:) Sb [however] does not allow the use of the pret. as a denotative of state without قَدْ; and he makes حصرت صدورهم to be an imprecation [meaning may their bosoms become contracted]: (S in art. حصر; in which art. in the present work see more on this subject:) and the inceptive لَ is prefixed to it like of the saying, إِنَّ زَيْدًا لَقَدْ قَامَ [Verily Zeyd has just stood, or has stood]; because the primary rule is that it is to be prefixed to the noun, and it is prefixed to the aor. because it resembles the noun, and when the pret. denotes a time near to the present it resembles the aor. and therefore it is allowable to prefix it thereto. (Mughnee.) [See also the two sentences next after what is mentioned below as the sixth meaning.] b4: (3) It denotes rareness, or paucity; (Mughnee, K;) either of the act signified by the verb, (Mughnee,) as in [the saying], قَدْ يَصْدُقُ الكَذُوبُ [In some few instances the habitual liar speaks truth]; (Mughnee, K;) or of what is dependent upon that act, as in [the saying in the Kur xxiv. last verse,] قَدْ يَعْلَمُ مَا

أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ [as though] meaning أَنَّ مَا هُمْ عَلَيْهِ هُوَ

أَقَلُّ مَعْلُومَاتِهِ [so that it should be rendered At least He knoweth that state of conduct and mind to which ye are conforming yourselves]: but some assert that in these exs. and the like thereof it denotes the affirmation of truth, or certainty; [as will be shown hereafter;] and that the denoting of rareness, or paucity, in the former ex. is not inferred from قَدْ, but from the saying الكَذُوبُ يَصْدُقٌ. (Mughnee.) b5: (4) It denotes frequency; (Mughnee, K;) [i. e.] sometimes (S, O) it is used as syn. with رُبَّمَا [as denoting frequency, as well as with رُبَّمَا in the contr. sense, mentioned in the next preceding sentence]: (S, M, O:) thus in the saying (S, M, O, Mughnee, K) of the Hudhalee, (M, Mughnee,) or 'Abeed Ibn-El-Abras, (IB, TA,) قَدْ أَتْرُكُ القِرْنَ مُصْفَرًّا أَنَامِلُهُ [Often I leave the antagonist having his fingers' ends become yellow]. (S, M, O, Mughnee, K.) b6: (5) It denotes the affirmation of truth, or certainty: thus in [the saying in the Kur xci. 9,] قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَنْ زَكَّاهَا [Verily, or certainly, or indeed, or really, he prospereth, or will prosper, who purifieth it; (namely, his soul;) each pret. here occupying the place of a mejzoom aor. ]: (Mughnee, K:) and thus accord. to some in [the saying in the Kur xxiv. last verse, of which another explanation has been given above,] قَدْ يَعْلَمُ مَا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ [Verily, or certainly, &c., He knoweth that state of conduct and mind to which ye are conforming yourselves]. (Mughnee.) b7: (6) It denotes negation, (Mughnee, K,) accord. to ISd, (Mughnee,) occupying the place of مَا, (M,) in the saying, قَدْ كُنْتَ فِى خَيْرٍ فَتَعْرِفَهُ, (M, Mughnee, K,) with تعرف mansoob, [as though meaning Thou wast not in prosperity, that thou shouldst know it,] (Mughnee, K,) heard from one of the chaste in speech: (M:) but this is strange. (Mughnee.) b8: [When it is used to denote the nearness of the past to the present, as appears to be indicated by the context in the O,] قَدْ may be separated from the verb by an oath; as in قَدْ وَاللّٰهِ أَحْسَنْتَ [Thou hast, by God, done well] and قَدْ لَعَمْرِى بِتُّ سَاهِرًا [I have, by my life, or by my religion, passed the night sleepless]. (O, Mughnee. [In the latter, this and what here next follows are mentioned before the explanations of the meanings of the particle; probably because the meaning in these cases can hardly be mistaken.]) And the verb may be suppressed after it, (M, * O, Mughnee,) when its meaning is apprehended, (O,) or because of an indication; (Mughnee;) as in the saying of En-Nábighah (M, O, Mughnee) Edh-Dhubyánee, (O,) أَفِدَ التَّرَحُّلُ غَيْرَ أَنَّ رِكَابَنَا لَمَّا تَزُلْ بِرِحَالِنَا وَكَأَنْ قَدِ [The time of departure has drawn near, though the camels that we ride have not left with our utensils and apparatus for travelling, but it is as though they had (left)]; meaning كَأَنْ قَدْ زَالَتْ. (M, O, Mughnee.) b9: If you make قَدْ an اِسْم [i. e. a subst. or a proper name], you characterize it by teshdeed: therefore you say, كَتَبْتُ قَدًّا حَسَنَةً [I wrote a beautiful قد]; and so you do in the case of كَىْ and هُوَ and لَوْ; because these words have no indication of what is deficient in them [supposing them to be originally of three radical letters], therefore it is requisite to add to the last letter of each what is of the same kind as it, and this is incorporated into it: but not in the case of ا; for in this case you add ء; thus if you name a man لَا, or مَا, and then add at the end of it ا, you make it ء; for you make the second ا movent, and ا when movent becomes ء: (S, O:) so says J, [and Sgh has followed him in the O,] and such is the opinion of Akh and of a number of the grammarians of El-Basrah [and of El-Koofeh (MF)], and F has quoted this passage in the B and left it uncontradicted: but IB says, (TA,) [and after him F in the K,] this is a mistake: that only is characterized by teshdeed of which the last letter is infirm: you say, for هُوَ, (IB, K,) used as the name of a man, (IB,) هُوٌّ, (IB, K,) and for لَوْ you say لَوٌّ, and for فِى you say فِىٌّ; (IB;) and such is characterized by teshdeed only in order that the word may not be reduced to one letter on account of the quiescence of the infirm letter [which would disappear] with tenween [as it does in دَمٌ and يَدٌ &c.]: (K:) but as to قَدْ, if you use it as a name, you say قَدٌ; (IB, K;) and for مَنْ you say مَنٌ, and for عَنْ you say عَنٌ; (K;) like يَدٌ (IB, K) and دَمٌ &c.: (K:) F, however, [following IB,] is wrong in calling J's statement a mistake; though the rule given by him [and IB] is generally preferred. (MF, TA.) قَدٌّ The skin of a lamb or kid: (M, A, L, Msb, K:) or [only] of a kid: (S, O, L:) or, accord. to IDrd, a small skin, but of what kind he does not say: (M, L:) pl. (of pauc., S) أَقُدٌّ and (of mult., S) قِدَادٌ (ISk, S, M, L, Msb, K) and [of pauc. also] أَقِدَّةٌ, which is extr. (M, L.) Hence the saying, ↓ فُلَانٌ مَا يَعْرِفُ القَدَّ مِنَ القِدِّ Such a one knows not the skin of a lamb, or kid, from the thong. (A.) And hence, (O, K,) it is said in a prov., (S, M, A, O,) مَا يَجْمَلُ قَدَّكَ إِلَى أَدِيمِكَ (S, M, A, O, K) What approximates thy skin of a lamb, or kid, to thy hide [of a full-grown beast]? meaning, accord. to Th, (assumed tropical:) what makes the great to be like the little? (M: [or the little to be like the great?]) or meaning what induces thee to make thy small affair [appear] great? (S:) or what approximates thy small [affair] to thy great? (O, K:) applied to him who transgresses his proper limit; (M, O, K;) and to him who compares the contemptible with the noble. (O, K.) b2: See also قِدٌّ, in two places.

A2: Also (assumed tropical:) The measure, quantity, size, or bulk, (M, L, Msb, K,) of a thing: (M, L:) (tropical:) the conformation, or proportion, syn. تَقْطِيع, (S, M, A, O, L, K,) of a thing, (M, L,) or of a young woman, (A,) or of a man: (K:) (tropical:) the stature, syn. قَامَة, (S, A, O, L, K,) of a man: (K:) (assumed tropical:) his justness of form, or symmetry: (M, L, K:) and (assumed tropical:) his figure, person, or whole body: (M, L:) pl. [of pauc.] أَقُدٌّ (M, L, K) and أَقِدَّةٌ, (K,) which is extr., (TA,) and [of mult.] قُدُودٌ (M, L, K) and قِدَادٌ. (K.) One says, هٰذَا عَلَى قَدِّ ذَاكَ (assumed tropical:) This is equal in measure, quantity, size, or bulk, to that; is like that. (Msb.) And شَىْءٌ حَسَنُ القَدِّ (assumed tropical:) A thing goodly, or beautiful, in respect of conformation, or proportion. (L.) And جَارِيَةٌ حَسَنَةُ القَدِّ (tropical:) A young woman goodly, or beautiful, in respect of stature, and of conformation, or proportion. (A.) And غُلَامٌ حَسَنُ القَدِّ (assumed tropical:) A young man goodly, or beautiful, in respect of justness of form, or symmetry, and in person, or the whole of his body. (M, L.) A3: See, again, قِدٌّ.

A4: By the phrase يَا وَيْلَ قَدٍّ, addressed to Mikdád, in a verse of Jereer, is meant يَا وَيْلَ مِقْدَادٍ [O, woe to thee Mikdád]; the poet restricting himself to some of the letters [of the name]: an instance [more obviously] of a similar kind is سَلَّام used by El-Hoteiäh for سُلَيْمَان. (O.) قُدٌّ A certain marine fish, (O, K,) the eating of which is said to increase [the faculty of] الجِمَاع. (O.) قِدٌّ A thing that is مَقْدُود [i. e. cut in an elongated form, &c.]. (M, L.) b2: [And hence] A thong cut from an untanned skin, (S, M, * A, O, * L, Msb, K,) with which sandals or shoes are sewed, (M, * L, Msb,) and with which a captive is bound; (A;) pl. أَقُدٌّ: (S, O, L:) and [as a coll. gen. n.] thongs, cut from an untanned skin, with which camels' saddles and [the vehicles called]

مَحَامِل are bound: (M, L:) and ↓ قِدَّةٌ [of which the pl. is قِدَدٌ] is a more special term, (S, O, L,) signifying a single thong of this kind. (K.) See an ex. voce قَدٌّ. b3: And (hence, L) A whip; (O, L, K;) as also ↓ قَدٌّ. (K.) Thus in the trad., لَقَابُ قَوْسِ أَحَدِكُمْ وَمَوْضِعُ قِدِّهِ فِى الجَنَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا, (O, * L,) or ↓ قَدِّهِ, (K,) i. e. Verily the space that would be occupied by the bow of any one of you, and the place that would be occupied by his whip, in Paradise, are better than the present [sublunary] world and what is in it: or قِدّه may here have the meaning next following. (L.) b4: A sandal; because cut in an elongated form from the skin: (O, L:) or a sandal not stripped of the hair, in order that it may be more pliant. (IAar, O, L.) b5: And A vessel of skin. (S, O, K.) One says, مَا لَهُ قِدٌّ وَلَا قِحْفٌ He has not a vessel of skin nor a vessel of wood: (S, O, M:) or a skin nor a fragment of a drinking-cup or bowl. (M.) b6: شَدِيدُ القِدِّ occurs in a trad. as some relate it, meaning Having a strong bowstring: but accord. to others, it is ↓ شَدِيدُ القَدِّ, meaning strong in pulling the bow. (L.) قِدَّةٌ: see قِدٌّ. b2: Also A piece of a thing. (M, L.) b3: And hence, (M,) A party, division, sect, or distinct body or class, of men, holding some particular tenet, or body of tenets, creed, opinion, or opinions, (S, M, O, L, Msb, K,) accord. to some, (Msb,) of whom each has his own, (S, O, L, K,) or of which each has its own, (Msb,) erroneous opinion: (S, O, L, Msb, K:) pl. قِدَدٌ. (Msb.) Hence, كُنَّا طَرَائِقَ قِدَدًا, (S, L, O, K,) in the Kur [lxxii. 11], (L, O,) said by the Jinn, (Fr, L,) We were parties, or sects, differing in their erroneous opinions, or in their desires: (Fr, O, L, K:) or separate [sects]; Muslims and not Muslims: (Zj:) or diverse, or discordant, or various, sects; Muslims and unbelievers. (Jel.) And one says, صَارَ القَوْمُ قِدَدًا The people became divided, or different, in their states, or conditions, and their desires, or erroneous opinions. (L.) قَدَادٌ The hedge-hog: b2: and The jerboa. (O, K.) قُدَادٌ A pain [app. what may be termed a cutting pain] in the belly. (S, M, O, L, K.) حَبَنًا وَقُدَادًا is a form of imprecation, meaning [May God inflict upon thee] dropsy, and a pain in the belly. (L.) قَدِيدٌ, (S, M, O, L, K,) or لَحْمٌ قَدِيدٌ, (Msb,) Flesh-meat cut into strips, or oblong pieces: (M, L, K:) or cut, (M,) or cut into oblong pieces, and spread, or spread in the sun, to dry: (M, L, K:) or salted, and dried in the sun: (L:) i. q. لَحْمٌ مُقَدَّدٌ: (S, O, L:) قَدِيدٌ is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ. (L.) b2: ثَوْبٌ قَدِيدٌ A garment, or piece of cloth, [slit, or rent, and] old and worn out. (S, O, L, K.) قُدَيْدٌ A small مِسْح [or garment of thick, or coarse, hair-cloth], (M, * K, * TA,) such as is worn by persons of low condition. (TA.) قَدِيدِيُّونَ, (IAth, O, K, TA,) thus accord. as a trad., in which it occurs is related, (IAth, TA,) not to be pronounced with damm, (K,) or, as some say, it is [قُدَيْدِيُّونَ, i. e.] with damm to the ق and fet-h to the [first] د, (IAth, TA,) and thus in the handwriting of Z in the “ Fáïk,” (O,) [and thus I find it in a copy of the A,] The followers of an army, consisting of handicraftsmen, (A, IAth, O, K, TA,) such as the repairer of cracked wooden bowls, and the farrier, (O, K, TA,) and the blacksmith: (O, TA:) of the dial. of the people of Syria: as though they were called by the former appellation because of the tattered state of their clothing; (O;) or by the latter as though, by reason of their low condition, they wore the small مِسْح called قُدَيْد; or from التَّقَدُّدُ, because they disperse themselves in the provinces on account of need, and because of the tattered state of their clothing; and the diminutive form denotes mean estimation of their condition: (IAth, TA:) a man (IAth, O, TA) of them (O) is reviled by its being said to him يَا قَدِيدىُّ (IAth, O, TA) and يا قُدَيْدِىُّ: (IAth, TA:) and it is commonly used in the language of the Persians also. (O.) قَيْدُودٌ A she-camel long in the back: (O, K:) but this is said to be derived from القَوْدُ, like الكَيْنُونَةُ from الكَوْنُ: (L:) [see art. قود:] pl. قَيَادِيدُ. (K. [In the O the pl. is written قَنَادِيدُ.]) مَقَدٌّ (tropical:) A road: (A, K, TA:) because it is cut: so in the phrase مَفَازَةٌ مُسْتَقِيمَةُ المَقَدِّ (tropical:) [A desert, or waterless desert, whereof the road is straight, or direct]. (A, TA.) b2: (assumed tropical:) The rima vulvæ of a woman. (M, L.) b3: (assumed tropical:) The part of the back of the neck that is between the ears. (K, L.) [A dial. var. of, or a mistake for, مَقَذٌّ.]) b4: And i. q. قَاعٌ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) An even, or a plain, place. (S, M, O, L.) مِقَدٌّ, like مِدَقٌّ [in measure], (K, [in a copy of the M, erroneously, مَقَدّ,]) or ↓ مِقَدَّةٌ, (L,) The iron instrument with which skin is cut (يُقَدُّ). (L, * K, * TA.) مِقَدَّةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

مَقَدِّىٌّ Wine of El-Makadd, a town of the region of the Jordan, (K,) or, as is said in the Marásid and the Moajam, near Adhri'át, in the Howrán; (TA;) wrongly said by J to be without teshdeed to the د, for the wine called مَقَدَىٌّ is different from that called مَقَدِّىٌّ: (K:) or it is wine boiled until it is reduced to half its original quantity; likened to a thing that is divided (قُدَّ) in halves; so accord. to Rejá Ibn-Selemeh, and in the Nh and Ghareebeyn; and sometimes it is pronounced without teshdeed to the د. (TA.)
