منذ

مُنْدُ is a simple word; (K;) or, accord. to some, a compound word, as will be explained hereáfter: (TA:) Sb says, that it is with respect to time like مِنْ with respect to place: (S, L:) it is indecl., [generally] with damm for its termination; and مُذْ is indecl. also, [generally] with its final letter quiescent, (S, L, K,) [unless followed by a quiescent letter, when it is movent in different manners which will be shown below,] and it is formed from مُنْذُ by elision: (M, L, K:) منذ is also written and pronounced مِنْذُ, (M, L, K,) in the dial. of the Benoo-Suleym; (M, L;) and مذ, مِذْ, (M, L, K,) in the dial. of the tribe of 'Okl. (M, L.) Each may be a prep., governing what follows it in the gen. case, and used in the same manner as فِى [signifying In, or during, or from the beginning of]: and in this case, each is prefixed only to that which denotes present time: thus you say, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذُ اللَّيْلَةِ [I have not seen him in this night; or simply I have not seen him this night]: (S, L:) or each is followed by a noun in the gen. case, and in this instance is a prep., in the sense of مِنْ [meaning Since, or lit., from,] when relating to a past time [such as a particular past day or the like]; and in the sense of فِى [meaning In, or from the beginning of,] when relating to the present time; and in the sense of مِنْ and إِلَى

together [meaning From the beginning to the end of; or during the whole course of; or simply during, or for;] when relating to a computed period of time, or number of days or the like: ex. [relating to a past time,] مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمِ الخَمِيسِ [I have not seen him since Thursday, إِلَى الْآنَ to the present time]; (Mughnee, K;) and [relating to the present time,] مُنْذُ يَوْمِنَا or عَامِنَا [in, or from the beginning of, (this) our day, or (this) our year;]; and, [relating to a computed period of time, or number of days or the like,] مُنْذُ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ

[from the beginning to the end of, i. e., during, or for, three days]. (Mughnee.) Each may also be a noun, governing the noun which follows it in the nom. case, as signifying a particular day or the like, or as signifying a definite length of time: in the case of a noun signifying a particular day or the like, you say, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذْ يَوْمُ الجُمْعَةِ [I have not seen him (since the commencement of a space of time); the commencement of the space of time thereof (i. e., أَوَّلُ مُدَّةِ عَدَمِ رُؤْيَتِى إِيَّاهُ the commencement of the space of time of my not seeing him) was Friday; meaning, since Friday]: and, in the case of a noun signifying a definite length of time, you say, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذْ سَنَةٌ, meaning, أَمَدُ ذٰلِكَ سَنَةٌ, [I have not seen him (during, or for, a time); the time thereof (i. e., أَمَدُ عَدَمِ رُؤْيَتِى إِيَّاهُ the time of my not seeing him) is a year; meaning, during, or for, a year;] and the noun in this latter case can only be indeterminate; for you cannot say, مُذْ سَنَةُ كَذَا: (S:) when followed by a noun in the nom. case, as in the instance of مُنْذُ يَوْمَانِ [or, accord. to more approved usage, مُذْ يَوْمَانِ, as will be shown below, The time is two days, meaning during, or for, two days], each is an inchoative, and what follows it is an enunciative; and its meaning is the time with respect to what is present, and to a computed period, or a number of days or the like; and the commencement of the space of time with respect to a past time [such as a particular past day or the like]: or each is an adv. n. [of time], an enunciative, of which what follows is the inchoative, and meaning بَيْنَ وَبَيْنَ, as in the instance of لَقِيتُهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمَانِ, [or, rather, مُذْ يَوْمَانِ,] i. e., بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَ لِقَائِهِ يَوْمَانِ [Two days have been between the time in which I now am and (the time of) my meeting him]: (K:) but this opinion is rejected by Ibn-Hájib. (TA.) Accord. to some of the Arabs, for they differ on this point, مذ governs in the gen. case a noun signifying a past time and one signifying a time not past: and accord. to some of them, منذ governs in the nom. case a noun signifying a past time and one signifying a time not past: (M, L:) but the general and most approved way is to make مذ govern in the gen. case a noun signifying a time not past, and in the nom. case one signifying a time past; and to make منذ govern in the gen. case a noun signifying a time not past and one signifying a time past: (T, M, L:) most of the Arabs hold, that each must govern in the gen. case a noun signifying the present time; and that it is preferable to make منذ govern in the same case, and to make مذ govern in the nom. case, a noun signifying a past time: (Mughnee:) [they therefore say, مُنْذُ اللَّيْلَةِ and مُذُ اللَّيْلَةِ, and مُنْذُ يَوْمِ الخَمِيسِ and مُنْذُ يَوْمَينِ; but they say, مُذْ يَوْمُ الخَمِيسِ and مُذْ يَوْمَانِ.] Some [or, rather, most] say, لَمْ أَرَهُ مُذْ يَوْمَانِ, and لَمْ أَرَهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمَينِ, [I have not seen him for, or during, two days;] making مذ [in these instances] to govern the nom. case; and منذ, the gen. case. (L.) Such is said when the period of separation is a day and part of a day. (Msb, art. شهر.) The Benoo-Dabbeh and Er-Rabáb make مذ to govern the gen. case in every instance. (M, L.) The phrases, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذْ عَامٌ أَوَّلُ, and مُذْ عَامٌ أَوَّلَ, (S, K, art. وأل; and L,) and مُذْ عَامُ الأَوَّلِ, and مُذْ عَامًا أَوَّلَ, [I have not seen him since last year,] are also mentioned by different authors. (L.) The Arabs generally agree in pronouncing منذ with damm to the ذ when it is followed by a movent or a quiescent letter; (T, M, L;) as in لَمْ أَرَهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمٍ, and مُنْذُ اليَوْمِ: (T, L:) and to pronounce مذ with the ذ quiescent when it is followed by a movent letter, (T, M, L,) and with damm and [sometimes] with kesr when it is followed by a conjunctive ا; (M, L;) as in لَمْ أَرَهُ مُذْ يَوْمَانِ, and لَمْ أَرَهُ مُذُ اليَوْمِ, [and مُذِ اليَوْمِ]: (T, L:) and so say most of the grammarians. (T.) Lh says, The Benoo-'Obeyd, of the tribe of Ghanee, make the ذ of مذ movent when it is followed by a movent or a quiescent letter, and make the noun following it to be in the nom. case, saying مُذُ اليَوْمُ; and some of them pronounce it with kesr when followed by a quiescent letter, saying مُذِ اليَوْمُ; but this is not the proper way. (M, L.) In the phrase مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُذُ اليَوْمِ, the Arabs make the ذ movent because of the occurrence [otherwise] of two quiescent letters together; and they [generally] give it not kesr, but damm, because the latter is the final vowel of its original منذ. (M, L.) One says also, مَا لَقِيتُةُ مُنْذَ اليَوْمِ, and مُذَ اليَوْمِ, which fet-h to the ذ in each. (K.) The Benoo-Suleym are related to have used the expression مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مِنْذُ سِتٌّ [by ستّ meaning six nights], with kesr to the م of منذ, and with the noun following it in the nom. case: and the tribe of 'Okl are related to have used the expression مِذُ يَوْمَانِ, with the ن elided, and with kesr to the م, and damm to the ذ. (M, L.) b2: Each of the two words منذ and مذ is also followed by a verbal proposition, as in the instance مَا زَالَ مُذْ عَقَدَتْ يَدَاهُ إِزَازَهُ [He has not ceased, since his two hands tied his wrapper of the lower part of the body]: or a nominal proposition, as in the instance وَلَا زِلْتُ أَبْغِى المَالَ مُذْ أَنَا يَافِعٌ [And I ceased not to seek wealth from the time of my being a youth, or young man]: in such cases, each is an adv. n. prefixed to the proposition [and governing it virtually in the gen. case], or to a noun significant of time [understood as] prefixed thereto [in the same manner]: or, as some say, each is an inchoative. (K.) b3: The original of مذ is منذ, because they restore the dammeh to the ذ in the case of the occurrence of two quiescent letters together; as in the instance of مُذُ اليَوْمِ, for were not its original with damm, they would give it kesr: [but this some do, as has been shown above:] and because its dim. is مُنَيْذٌ: (K:) for when مذ is used as a proper name of a man, its dim. is thus formed, by restoring the ن, that it may be of the measure فُعَيْلٌ: (IJ, M, L:) or when مذ is a noun, it is originally منذ; and when it is a particle, it is itself original. (K.) b4: Accord. to some, منذ (T, S, L, K) and مذ (K) are originally مِنْ and إِذْ, which are made one word, (T, S, L, K,) by eliding the hemzeh, and then giving damm to the ذ because of the occurrence of two quiescent letters together; (K;) مُنْذُ كَانَ [and مُذْ كَانَ] meaning مِنْ إِذْ كَانَ: (T, L:) but there is nothing to indicate the truth of this opinion: (S, L:) or, as some say, منذ and مذ are originally the prep.

من and ذو in the sense of الَّذِى (L, K) in the dial. of Teiyi: so says Fr.; adding, that when either governs a gen. case, it is used in the manner of مَنْ; and when it governs a nom. case, it is as though one said, [in using the expression مُنْذُ أَوْ مُذْ يَوْمَانِ,] مِنَ الَّذِى هُوَ يَوْمَانِ; and that the former government prevails in the case of منذ because the ن is not suppressed: (L:) or, as some say, they are originally مِنْ and the noun of indication ذَا; so that in the phrase مَا رَأَيْتُهُ مُنْذُ يَوْمَانِ, [accord. to more approved usage, مُذْ يَوْمَانِ,] we virtually say, مِنْ ذَا الْوَقْتِ يَوْمَانِ: but each of these assertions is a deviation from the plain way. (K.)

مُسْتَعْسِبٍ أَرِبٍ مِنْهُ بِتَمْهِيرِ He came [beating the ground with his feet] like as a horse comes [so beating the ground] to a man borrowing him for covering, wanting by his means to procure for himself a colt.

(K, TA.) In like manner, a certain man gave to another property, and he married with it the daughter of the giver, and then reproached her for the dowry he had given her: so they said, كَالْمَمْهُورَةِ مِنْ مَالِ أَبِيهَا [Like her who has been dowered from the property of her father]: (K, TA:) [a proverb] applied in relation to him who reproaches for that which is not his own.

(Lth.) b2: [Hence,] مَخْضٌ relates also to many things. (TA.) Thus, you say, (TA) مَخَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (K, TA,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) He shook, or agitated, the thing vehemently. (K, TA.) It is said in a trad., مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ تُمْخَضُ مَخْضًا; (L;) or تُمْخَضُ مَخْضَ الزّقّ; (O;) (assumed tropical:) [A bier with a corpse was conveyed past him] being shaken, or agitated, quickly; (L, TA;) or being shaken, or agitated, vehemently [like as the milkskin is shaken, &c.] (O, TA.) You say also, مَخَضَ الدَّلْوَ, (K,) or بِالدَّلْوِ, (Fr, S, O, L,) which latter is the correct phrase, (TA,) or مَخَضَ المَآءَ بِالدَّلْوِ (A,) and مَخَضَ البِئْرَ بِالدَّلْوِ, (TA,) (tropical:) He dashed the bucket in the water of the well, to fill it: (Fr., S, O, L, K:) or he drew much water with the bucket: (A:) and the last, he drew much with the bucket from the well, and agitated it.

(A, TA.) b5: And مَخَضَ said of a camel, (tropical:) He brayed (هَدَرَ) in his شِقْشِقَة [i.e. faucial bag, or bursa faucium]. (K, TA.) A2: مَخِضَتْ, (ISh, IAar S, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (S, K;) or ـَ (so in a copy of the A and in a copy of the Mgh) or both; (JK, K;) aor. of the latter, as of the former, مَخَضَ; (K;) and مُخِضَتْ; (ISh, L, K;) but this last is disallowed by IAar; (TA;) and the generality of Keys and Temeem and Asad say مِخِضَتْ, with kesr to the م, [for مَخِضَتْ,] and in like manner they do in the case of every [incipient] letter before a guttural letter in words of the measures فَعِلْتُ and فَعِيلٌ; (Nuseyr, TA;) inf. n. مَخَاضٌ (ISh, S, A, Mgh, Msb, K) and مِخَاضٌ (Msb, K) and مَخَضٌ; (A;) said of a she-camel, (ISh, S,) or of a woman, (IAar,) or absolutely, (A, Mgh,) or also absolutely, (Msb, TA, *) of a woman, and of a she-camel, and of other beasts, (TA,) (tropical:) She was taken with the pains of parturition, (ISh, S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) being near to bringing forth; (Msb;) as also ↓ مَخَّضَتْ, inf. n. تَمْخِيضٌ; (K;) and ↓ تمخّضت; (ISh, and so in some copies of the K;) each of these last two is correct; (TA;) and ↓ امتخضت. (ISh.) And مَخِضَتْ said of a woman, (tropical:) Her child moved about in her belly, previously to the birth: (Ibráheem El-Harbee:) and in like manner, بِوَلَدِهَا ↓ تمخّضت, (S, * TA,) said of a she-camel, (tropical:) her young one became agitated in her belly at the time of bringing forth: (TA:) and ↓ تمخّضت [alone], said of a ewe, or she-goat, (assumed tropical:) she conceived, or became pregnant.

'Amr Ibn-Hassán, one of the Benu-l-Hárith-Ibn-Hemmám-Ibn-Murrah, says, (Seer, S,) but the saying is also ascribed to Sahm Ibn-Khálid Ibn-'Abd-Allah Esh-Sheybánee, and to Khálid Ibn-Hikk Esh-Sheybánee, (TA,) المَنُونُ لَهُ بِيَوْمٍ ↓ تَمَخَّضَتِ

أَنَى وَلِكُلِّ حَامِلَةٍ تَمَامُ meaning [Time, or fortune,] was pregnant with a day for him, of which the time of birth had come: [for for every one that is pregnant there is a term of completion.] (S.) 2 مَخَّضَ see مَخِضَتْ.4 امخض اللَّبَنُ The milk attained to the proper time for [its being churned, or] having its butter taken, or extracted. (S, A, Msb.) In the O and K, it is made to signify the same as امتخض: but it seems that Sgh has inadvertently omitted, after it, the words حَانَ لَهُ أَنْ يُمْخَضَ, and that the author of the K has copied him without referring to other lexicons. (TA.) b2: Also امخض, (K,) said of a man, (TA,) (tropical:) He had his she-camels taken with the pains of parturition; (K, TA;) and his she-camel, in like manner. (TA.) 5 تمخّض It (milk) was, or became, agitated in the مِمْخَضَة; (S, A, * TA;) as also ↓ امتخض. (S, O, K.) [See also 4.] b2: It (milk) had its butter taken. (K.) b3: (tropical:) It (a child, or young one,) moved about in the belly of its mother; as also ↓ the latter verb. (S, TA.) b4: See also مَخِضَتْ and what follows it, to the end of the paragraph.8 إِمْتَخَضَ see 5, in two places: b2: and see مَخِضَتْ.10 استمخض اللَّبَنُ The milk was slow in becoming thick and fit for churning, and its butter would hardly, if at all, come forth: such is the best of milk, because its butter is in it. (A.) b2: Also, The milk was slow in acquiring flavour after it had been collected in the skin. (TA.) مَخْضٌ: see مَخِيضٌ.

مَخَاضٌ (assumed tropical:) The pains of parturition; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ مِخَاضٌ. (Msb.) A2: Applied to she-camels, (tropical:) Pregnant: (Az, As, S, ISd, A, Msb, K, &c.:) used in this sense as an epithet of good omen, whence they augur that their young ones will become agitated in their bellies at the time of parturition: (ISd:) having their young in their bellies: (M, TA:) or such as are called عِشَار, that have been ten months pregnant: (Th, K:) but ISd says, I have not found this explanation of مخاض on any authority beside that of Th: (TA:) [see also عُشَرَآءُ:] it has no proper sing: (S:) a single one is termed خَلِفَةٌ, (Az, As, S, A, &c,) which is extr. (K, TA) with respect to rule: (TA:) or مَخَاضٌ signifies, or it signifies also, (accord. to different copies of the K,) she-camels in the state in which they are from the time when the stallion is sent among them (ISd, K) until he brays (حَتَّى يَهْدِرَ), or, accord. to another relation, until they are left (حتّى تُغْدَرَ), i.e., (ISd,) until he ceases (حتّى

يَنْقَطِعَ, in the copies of the K, erroneously, حتى تنقطع, TA) from covering: (ISd, K:) a pl. (K) having no sing. (ISd, K.) b2: Hence, (S,) اِبْنُ مَخَاضٍ (tropical:) A young male camel, which, (As, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) having completed a year (As, S, Mgh) from the day of its birth, (As,) has entered upon the second year: (As, S, Mgh, Msb, K:) because his mother, (S, IAth, Mgh, K,) from whom he has been separated, (S,) has become adjoined to the مَخَاض, (S, IAth, Mgh, K,) or pregnant camels, (IAth, K,) whether she have conceived or not; (S, IAth, * K; *) for they used to make the stallion-camels to cover the females a year after these had brought forth, (IAth, K, *) in order that their young ones might become strong, so that they conceived in the second year: (IAth:) or because its mother has been covered, and has conceived, and become adjoined to the مَخَاض, i.e., to the pregnant camels; and this appellation it bears until it has completed the second year; but when it has entered upon the third, it is called اِبْنُ لَبُونٍ: (Msb:) or a young male camel when his mother has conceived: (K:) or whose mother has become pregnant: or when the she-camels among whom is his mother have become pregnant, though she have not become so: (IAth, K:) the female is called بِنْتُ مَخَاضٍ; (IAth, Msb, K;) or اِبْنَةُ مَخَاضٍ: (S:) the pl., (S, Msb, K,) of both the male and female appellations, (Msb,) is بَنَاتُ مَخَاضٍ, (S, Msb, K,) only; like بَنَاتُ لَبُونٍ and بَنَاتُ آوَى. (S.) Sometimes one adds to it the article ال, (Msb, K,) saying, اِبْنُ المَخَاضِ: (Msb:) [for] ابن مخاض is indeterminate; and when you desire to make it determinate, you affix the article ال, as above; but this only makes it determinate as a generic appellation. (S.) مِخَاضٌ: see مَخَاضٌ.

مَخُوضٌ: see مَاخِضٌ, in two places.

مَخِيضٌ and ↓ مَمْخُوضٌ (S, Msb, K) and ↓ مَخْضٌ (TA, voce مَحْضٌ, q. v.)

(Msb.) مَاخِضٌ, applied to a she-camel, (ISh, IAar, S, K,) and to a woman, and a ewe or she-goat, (IAar, Msb, K,) and any pregnant animal, (S, A, * Msb,) (tropical:) Taken with the pains of parturition, (ISh, IAar, S, A, Msb,) being near to bringing forth; (IAar, Msb, K;) as also ↓ مَخُوضٌ: (ISh:) and, applied to a ewe or she-goat, having conceived; as also ↓ the latter epithet; (As, K;) pl. of the former, مُخَّضٌ (S, Msb, K) and مَوَاخِضُ. (A, K.) b2: The Arabs say, in one of their imprecations, صَبَّ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْكَ أُمَّ حُبَيْنٍ

مَاخِضًا, meaning (assumed tropical:) [May God pour upon thee] the night. (Ibn-Buzurj.) إِمْخَاضٌ Fresh milk (حَلِيب), (K,) or churned milk (لَبَنٌ مَخِيضٌ), (Lth,) as long as it remains in the مِمْخَضَة: (Lth, K:) or, as some say, milk collected in the place of pasturage until it amounts to the quantity of a camel-load: pl. أَمَا خِيضُ. (Lth.) You say إِمْخَاضٌ مِنْ لَبَنٍ and إِحْلَابٌ مِنْ لَبَنٍ: (Lth:) or the former is of ewes or she-goats, or of cows; and the latter, of camels. (TA, in art. حلب, q. v.) b2: See also مِمْخَضٌ.

مِمْخَضٌ A skin; syn.; سِقَآءٌ; (K;) as also ↓ إِمْخَاضٌ, which is mentioned by Sb, and thus explained by Seer: (TA:) or a skin (سقاء) in which is مَخِيض [or churned milk, &c.]: (TA:) or the receptacle in which the milk whereof the butter has been taken is agitated: (Lth:) and ↓ مِمْخَضَةٌ [and app. the former also] the vessel, (Mgh,) or receptacle, (Msb,) [generally a skin,] in which milk is churned or beaten and agitated; (Mgh, K; *) or in which the butter of the milk is extracted, or fetched out by putting water in it, and agitating it; (Msb;) [i.e. a churn;] i. q. إِبْرِيجٌ. (S.) مِمْخَضَةٌ: see what next precedes.

مِمْخَاضٌ (assumed tropical:) A she-camel having a quick flow of milk. (JK.) مَمْخُوضٌ: see مَخِيضٌ.

مُسْتَمْخِضٌ Milk slow in becoming thick and fit for churning: (K:) or that hardly, if at all, becomes so; and when it has become so, is churned; and this is the best of the milk of ewes or goats, because its butter is destroyed (استهلك) in it. (TA.) [But see 10.]

(K, TA; but not in the CK.) b2: [Hence, مَرِضَتِ العَيْنُ (tropical:) The eye became languid; or languishing; or weak: (see مَرِيضٌ:) or, as Golius says, on the authority of Ibn-Maaroof, was weak from much, and too much, looking.]

b3: And مَرِضَتِ اللَّيْلَةُ (tropical:) The night became dark. (Th, O.) b4: [The verb probably has several other tropical significations agreeable with explanations of مَرَضٌ and مَرِيضٌ which will be found below.]2 مرّضهُ, (S, Mgh, Msb,) inf. n. تَمْرِيضٌ, (S, Msb, K,) He took care of him in his sickness; (Sb, S, Mgh;) and treated him medically, to remove his disease; the measure فَعَّلَ in this instance having a privative quality, though its quality is in most instances confirmative: (Sb:) or he took good care of him, namely a sick person: (K:) or he undertook, or managed, or superintended, the medical treatment of him. (Msb.) A2: مرّض فِى الأَمْرِ, (IDrd, A,) [and مَرَّضَهُ, (O, K voce ضَهْيَأَ,)] inf. n. as above, (S, K,) (tropical:) He fell short of doing what he ought to have done, or was remiss, in, or with respect to, the affair: (S, A:) or he did not exert himself to the full, or to the utmost, or beyond what is usual, in it: (IDrd:) or he did it weakly, or feebly, (K, * TA,) not firmly or soundly: (TA:) as also فِيهِ ↓ مارض.

(A, TA.) 4 امرض: see 1. b2: He had a bane, or murrain, (Yaakoob, S,) or a disease, or distemper, (A, TA,) in his beasts, (Yaakoob, S, A,) or camels. (TA.) A2: امرضهُ He (God, S, Msb) rendered him مَرِيض [or diseased, &c.]. (Sb, S, * Msb, K.) You say also, أَكَلَ مَا لَمْ يُوَافِقْهُ فَأَمْرَضَهُ (A, TA) [He ate what did not agree with him, and] it caused him to fall into المَرَض [or disease, &c.]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] إِمْرَاضُ الأجْفَانِ (S, voce إِسْجَادٌ) (tropical:) The lowering of the eyelids [in a languid, or languishing, manner: see مَرِيضٌ].

A3: Also امرض (assumed tropical:) He was near to being right in opinion, (S, L, K, *) though not altogether right. (L.) In the K, this signification is wrongly assigned to امرضهُ. (TA.) A poet says, (S,) namely El-Ukeyshir El-Asadee, praising 'Abd-el-Melik Ibn-Marwán, (TA.) وَلٰكِنْ تَحْتَ ذَاكَ الشَّيْبِ حَزْمٌ

[It seems to be indicated in the A that ↓ تمارض also has this signification; like as مارض in nearly the same sense is syn. with مرّض, q. v.: or perhaps تمارض signifies (tropical:) he feigned, or made a false show of, weakness, or feebleness, in his affair: it is said, in the A, to be used tropically as well as properly.]6 تمارض He feigned, or made a false show of, مَرَض [or disease, &c.] in himself.
