رجم

1 رَجْمٌ signifies The throwing, or casting, of stones: (S, K:) this is its primary meaning: (S, TA:) you say, رَجَمَهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. رَجْمٌ, (S, Msb, TA,) He threw, or cast, stones at him; or pelted him with stones: (S, TA:) or he struck him, or smote him, with رَجَم, meaning stones: (Msb:) and رُجُومٌ is syn. with رَجْمٌ, as an inf. n.: thus some explain the saying, in the Kur [lxvii. 5], وَجْعَلْنَاهَا رُجُومًا لِلشَّيَاطِينِ [And we have made them for casting at the devils; meaning shooting stars, which are believed to be hurled at the devils that listen by stealth, beneath the lowest heaven, to the words of the angels therein: but see other explanations below, voce رَجْمٌ]. (TA.) b2: Hence, (S, TA,) The act of slaying [in any manner, but generally stoning, i. e. putting to death by stoning]. (S, K.) So in رَجْمُ الثَّيِّبَيْنِ إِذَا زَنَيَا [The slaying, or stoning, of the two married persons when they have committed adultery]. (TA.) b3: [(assumed tropical:) The act of beating, or battering, the ground with the feet.] One says of a camel, يَرْجُمُ الأَرْضَ (assumed tropical:) [He beats, or batters, the ground], i. e., with his feet; which implies commendation: (TA:) and so one says of a horse; (K;) or يُرْجُمُ فِى الأَرْضِ. (S.) and one says also, جَآءَ يَرْجُمُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [He came beating, or battering, the ground; or] passing along with an ardent and a rapid running. (Lh, K, * TA.) [See also 8.] b4: (tropical:) The act of cursing. (K, TA.) b5: (assumed tropical:) The act of reviling. (K, TA.) لَأَرْجُمَنَّكَ, in the Kur xix. 47, means (assumed tropical:) I will assuredly revile thee: (Bd, Jel, TA: see also another explanation below, in this paragraph:) or I will assuredly cast stones at thee, (Bd, Jel,) so that thou shalt die, or shalt remove far from me.

(K, TA.) One says, رَجَمَ بِالغَيْبِ (assumed tropical:) He spoke of that which he did not know. (Ham p. 494.) And رَجَمَ بِالظَّنِّ (Z, TA) (assumed tropical:) He spoke conjecturally: (MA:) or he conjectured, or opined. (Bd in xviii. 21.) Hence, قَالَهُ رَجْمًا (assumed tropical:) He said it conjecturally. (Z, TA.) Hence also, (TA,) رَجْمًا بَالغَيْبِ, in the Kur [xviii. 21], (S, TA,) (assumed tropical:) [Speaking conjecturally of that which is hidden, or unknown; as indicated in the S and TA: or] conjecturing in a case hidden from them. (Jel.) One says also, قَالَ رَجْمًا بِالغَيْبِ, i. e.

(TA.) It is related in a trad. of 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Mughaffal, that he said, لَا تُرَجِّمُوا قَبْرِى, i. e. Place not ye upon my grave رُجَم; meaning thereby that they should make his grave even with the ground, not gibbous and elevated: the verb is thus correctly, with tesh-deed: but the relaters of trads. say, ↓ لا تَرْجُمُوا قبرى: (S:) [and it is said that] القَبْرَ ↓ رَجَمَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـُ inf. n. رَجْمٌ, (TA,) signifies عَلَّمَهُ, (K,) i. e. He put a tombstone to the grave: (TK:) or he placed upon the grave رِجَام [a pl., like رُجَم, of رُجْمَة]: (K:) or, accord. to Aboo-Bekr, لَا قَبْرِى ↓ تَرْجُمُوا means Wail not ye at my grave; i. e. say not, at it, what is unseemly; from الرَّجْمُ signifying “ the act of reviling. ” (TA.) 3 مُرَاجَمَةٌ [in its primary acceptation] is The mutual throwing, or casting, of stones; or the vying, or contending for superiority, in the throwing, or casting, of stones.

(TA.) 6 تراجموا بَالحِجَارَةِ They threw, or cast, stones, one at another; or vied, or contended for superiority, in throwing, or casting, stones, one at another: (S, TA:) and ↓ ارتجموا signifies the like of this.

(TA.) رَسَنٌ A rope, or cord: (S, M, Msb, K:) or [a halter; i. e.] a rope, or cord, with which a camel [or a horse (see 1)] is led: (TA:) and such of the [reins, or leading-ropes, termed] أَزِمَّة [pl. of زِمَامٌ] as is upon the nose; (M;) [in other words,] such a زِمَام as is upon a nose: (K:) pl. أِرْسَانٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and أَرْسُنٌ, (M, Msb, K,) [both properly pls. of pauc.,] and sometimes they said رُسُنٌ; (Msb;) or, accord. to Sb, it has no other pl. than أَرْسَانٌ; (M, Msb;) [but perhaps he meant of pauc., for SM says,] Sb disallowed أَرْسُنٌ. (TA.) A poet says, (S,) namely, Ibn-Mukbil, (TA,) هَرِيتٌ قَصِيرُ عِذَارِ الِلّجَامِ

أَسِيلٌ طَوِيلُ عِذَارِ الرَّسّنْ [Wide-mouthed, short in the cheek-straps of the bridle (or headstall): smooth and long in the cheek, long in the appertenance of the halter corresponding to the cheek-straps of the bridle or headstall; because this appertenance is longer than are the cheek-straps of the bridle or headstall]. (S, TA.) مّرَّ الصَّعَالِيكِ بِأَرْسَانِ الخَيْلِ [As the passing along of the robbers with the halters of the horses] is a prov., applied to an affair, or event, that is quick and uninterrupted. (TA.) And one says, رَمَى بِرَسَنِهِ عَلَى غَارِبِهِ [He threw his leading-rope upon his withers], meaning (assumed tropical:) he left his way free, or open, to him; so that God did not withhold him from that which he desired to do. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] رَسَنُ البَازِى [The leash of the hawk]. (A in art. رود.) A2: [The pl.]

أَرْسَانٌ also signifies Rugged and hard tracts of ground. (K, * TA.) رَاسَنٌ A certain plant, resembling the plant called زَنْجَبِيل [i. e. ginger]; (M;) i. q. قَنَسٌ; [both of which names are applied to the inula helenium, common inula, or elecampane; also called in the present day زَنْجَبِيلٌ شَامِىٌّ;] a Pers\. word [arabicized]. (K.) مَرْسِنٌ (S, M, K) and مَرْسَنٌ, (M, K,) or the latter should be مِرْسَنٌ, [but I think this doubtful,] thus written in some of the copies of the S, and in both ways in the L, (TA,) The part, of the nose of the horse, which is the place of the رَسَن: (S:) or the nose of a solid-hoofed animal: this is the primary signification: (M:) then, by a secondary application, (S, M,) the nose (S, M, K) in an absolute sense, (M, K,) or, of a human being: (S:) pl. مَرَاسِنُ (TA) [which, as stated by Freytag, is used in a sing. sense, in the Deewán of Jereer, as meaning the nose]. سَلِسُ المَرْسِنِ, a phrase used by the poet El-Jaadee, means (assumed tropical:) Easy to be led, tractable, or compliant. (TA.) And you say, فَعَلْتُ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى رَغْمِ مَرْسِنِهِ (assumed tropical:) [I did that against his wish; in spite of him; or notwithstanding his dislike, or disapproval, or hatred; like as you say, عَلَى رَغْمِ أَنْفِهِ].

(TA.) المَرْسِينُ [The myrtle-tree;] i. q. رَيْحَانُ القُبُورِ: of the dial. of Egypt. (TA.) [Also mentioned in art. مرس: for some hold the م to be augmentative; and some, the ن.]

ركن

1 رَكَنَ إِلَيْهِ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb, K;) of the dial. of the lower (سُفْلَى) [app. in territory] of Mudar, and said by Az to be not chaste [thought it, or the third, seems to be the most common of the dial. vars. here mentioned]; (Msb;) and رَكِنَ aor. ـَ (S, Msb, K;) mentioned by Az; (S;) and رَكَنَ, aor. ـَ (S, Msb, K;) which is a combination of two dial. vars., [namely, the first and second of those above mentioned,] (S, Msb,) because neither the medial nor the final radical letter is faucial; (Msb;) said to be the only instance of its kind except أَبَى aor. ـَ (T in art. ابى;) and رَكِنَ, aor. ـُ which is likewise an instance of the commixture of two dial. vars., like فَضِلَ and حَضِرَ and نَعِمَ, aor. ـْ and يَحْضُرُ and يَنْعُمُ; (TA;) inf. n. رُكُونٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and رَكَانَةٌ and رَكَانِيَةٌ; (TA;) He inclined to him, or it; syn. مَالَ: and he trusted to, or relied upon, him, or it, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; syn. سَكَنَ: (S, Mgh, K:) or he leaned, rested, or relied, upon him; syn. اِعْتَمَدَ عَلَيْهِ: (Msb:) or he inclined to him in the least degree; (Bd in xi. 115;) رُكُونٌ signifying slight inclining. (Ksh and Bd ibid.) It is said in the Kur [xi. 115], وَلَا تَرْكَنُوا

إِلَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا [And incline ye not, &c., to those who have acted wrongfully]: (S, Msb:) or, incline ye not in the least degree [&c.]: (Bd:) thus generally read; and also تِرْكَنُوا, (Ksh, Bd, TA,) accord. to the dial. of Temeem; and ↓ تُرْكَنُوا, in the pass. form, from أَرْكَنَهُ. (Ksh, Bd.) b2: رَكِنَ فِى المَنْزِلِ, aor. ـَ inf. n. رَكْنٌ, He kept tenaciously to the place of alighting, or abode, (ضَنَّ بِهِ,) and did not relinquish it. (TA.) A2: رَكُنَ, inf. n. رَكَانَةٌ (S, K) and رُكُونَةٌ (K) and رَكَانِيَةٌ, (TK,) [primarily, it seems, said of a mountain, meaning It was inaccessible, or difficult of access, having high, or strong أَرْكَان i. e. sides or angles: see Har p. 561; and see رَكِينٌ, below; and 5. b2: And hence,] (tropical:) He (a man) was, or became, firm, (Har p. 561,) still, or motionless, (TA,) grave, staid, steady, sedate; or calm. (S, K, TA.) 2 ركّن is said by Golius, as on the authority of the KL, to signify He made like, “similem fecit: ” and hence Freytag also thus explains it: but it is زكّن that has this signification. In my copy of the KL, تَزْكِينٌ (not تَرْكِينٌ) is expl. by مانند كردن.]4 اركنهُ He made him to incline [إِلَى غَيْرِهِ to another]; syn. أَمَالَهُ: [and to trust to, or rely upon, another, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind: or to lean, rest, or rely, upon another: see 1:] whence a reading in the Kur xi. 115. (Ksh, Bd. *) See 1.5 تركّن said of a man, (TA,) [or primarily and properly, of a thing, like رَكُنَ,] He, [or it] was, or became, firm, or strong, (K, TA,) and inaccessible, or difficult of access. (TA.) b2: and [hence,] (assumed tropical:) He endeavoured, or constrained himself, to be grave, staid, steady, sedate, or calm; syn. تَوَقَّرَ, (K,) and تَرَزَّنَ. (TA.) رَكْنٌ The جُرَذ [or large field-rat]: and the فَأْر [or common rat or mouse]; as also ↓ رُكَيْنٌ. (K.) رُكْنٌ The جَانِب [meaning side, or outward part,] of a thing: (Msb:) or the strongest جَانِب [i. e. side, or outward part,] (S, K, TA) of a thing (S, TA) of any kind: (TA:) the corner, or angle, (زَاوِيَة,) of a house or room or the like: (K in art. زوى:) [and this is perhaps what is meant by the “ strongest جانب; ” for the strongest outward part of the house is unquestionably the corner, or angle: thus the angle in which is the Black Stone, of the Kaabeh, is specially called رُكْنُ البَيْتِ, i. e. رُكْنُ بَيْتِ اللّٰهِ:] the رُكْن of a قَصْر [or palace, or pavilion, &c.,] is its جَانِب [or its strongest جانب], and so of a mountain: (TA: [see رَكُنَ, and رَكِينٌ:]) the pl. is أَرْكَانٌ and أَرْكُنٌ [each properly a pl. of pauc., but the former is used as a pl. of mult.]: (Msb, TA:) the أَرْكَان of anything are is جَوَانِب [or sides, or outward parts, or its corners, or angles,] upon which it rests, and by which it is supported: (TA:) and the أَرْكَان of a land are its extremities [or sides or corners]. (Ham p. 478.) b2: [Hence, (assumed tropical:) A stay, or support, of any kind: see an ex. voce مِرْجَمٌ: whence, perhaps,] one says, تَمَسَّحْتُ بِأَرْكَانِهِ, meaning تَبَرَّكْتُ بِهِ (tropical:) [i. e. I looked for a blessing by means of him, or it]. (TA.) (assumed tropical:) A thing whereby one is strengthened (مَا يُقَوَّى بِهِ [in the CK ما تَقَوَّىبه]), such as dominion (مُلْك [in the CK مَلِك]), and an army, or a military force, &c.: (K:) and thus it has been explained as occurring in the Kur [li. 39], where it is said, فَتَوَلَّى بِرُكْنِهِ, (TA,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) And he turned away from belief with his forces; because they were to him like the رُكْن [properly so termed]. (Jel.) (assumed tropical:) A man's kinsfolk; or nearer, or nearest, relations; or clan; or tribe; syn. عَشِيرَةٌ: (AHeyth, TA:) (assumed tropical:) a man's people, or party; and the higher among them; and the persons by whom he is aided and strengthened: thought by ISd to be thus called by way of comparison [to a رُكْن properly so termed]: and thus it has been explained as used in the Kur [xi. 82], where it is said, أَوْ آوِىَ رُكْنٍ شَدِيدٍ (assumed tropical:) [Or that I might have recourse to a strong people, or party, &c.]: (TA:) or it here means عَشِيرَة [explained above]. (Jel.) And (assumed tropical:) A noble, or high, person; as in the saying, هُوَ رُكْنٌ مِنْ

أَرْكَانِ قَوْمِهِ (assumed tropical:) [He is a noble, of the nobles of his people]. (TA.) And أَرْكَانُ الإِنْسَانِ means (assumed tropical:) The members, or limbs, of the man, with which things are gained or earned, or with which he works; as the hands or arms, and the feet or legs. (TA.) b3: Also (assumed tropical:) Might, and resistance: (S, K:) so in the saying, هُوَ يَأْوِى إِلَى رُكْنٍ شَدِيدٍ (assumed tropical:) [He has recourse to strong, or vehement, might and resistance]: (S:) and so it has been explained as used in the words of the Kur last cited above. (TA.) b4: And (assumed tropical:) A thing, an affair, a case, an event, or an action, of great magnitude or moment, momentous, formidable, or terrible. (AHeyth, K.) Thus AHeyth explains it as used in the saying of En-Nábighah [Edh-Dhubyánee], لَا تَقْذِفَنِّى بِرُكْنٍ لَا كِفَآءَ لَهُ [By no means reproach thou me with a momentous, or a formidable, thing or action, or an enormity, that has not its equal; though (he proceeds to say) the enemies incite thee, with companies of men aiding one another]. (TA.) b5: In the conventional language [of the schools], رُكْنُ الشَّىْءِ means (assumed tropical:) [The essence of the thing; or] that whereby the thing subsists: from التَّقَوُّمُ; because the قِوَام [or subsistence] of the thing is by its رُكْن: not from القِيَام: else it would necessarily be the case that the agent would be a رُكْن to the action; and the substance, to the accident; and the thing to which a quality is attributed, to the quality: (KT:) it is (assumed tropical:) that without which the thing has no subsistence: (Kull:) and is [also] applied to (assumed tropical:) [an essential, or essential part, of the thing; i. e.,] a part of the مَاهِيَّة [or essence] of the thing, (Kull, [and in like manner أَرْكَانُ الشَّىْءِ is explained in the Msb as meaning the parts of the ماهيّة of the thing,]) as when we say that القِيَام is a رُكْن of الصَّلَاْة; as well as to (assumed tropical:) the whole مَاهيّة [of the thing]: (Kull:) [thus] أَرْكَانُ العِبَادَاتِ means (assumed tropical:) the fundamentals [or essentials] of the services of religion, by the neglect, or non-observance, of which they are ineffectual, or null, or void: (TA:) or, as some say, رُكْنُ الشَّىْءِ means that whereby the thing is complete; and this is intrinsic therein; differing from the شَرْط [or condition] thereof, which is extrinsic thereto. (KT.) رَكِينٌ A mountain having high أَرْكَان [i. e. sides, or angles]: (S, K:) or having strong اركان: (TA:) or inaccessible, or difficult of access, having اركان. (Har p. 561.) b2: And hence, (Har ibid.,) (tropical:) A man (S, K, &c.) firm, (Har,) still, or motionless, (TA,) grave, staid, steady, sedate, or calm. (S, K, Har, TA.) رُكَيْنٌ: see رَكْنٌ.

أَرْكُونٌ A great دِهْقَان, (K, TA,) i. e. headman, or chief, of a village or town: [app. from the Greek ἄρχω ν; though it is said that] he is thus called because the people of the village or town trust to him and incline to him. (TA.) مِرْكَنٌ A kind of vessel, well known, (K, TA,) like a تَوْر [q. v.], of leather, used for water: (TA:) or i. q. إِجَّانَةٌ [q.v.], (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) in which clothes and the like are washed; (TA;) called in Pers\. تَغَارْ: (Mgh:) pl. مَرَاكِنُ and مَرَاكِينُ. (TA.) One says, زَرَعُوا الرَّيَا حِينَ فِى

المَرَاكِينِ [They sowed the sweet-smelling plants in the مراكين]. (TA.) مُرَكَّنٌ A thing having أَرْكَان [here meaning corners, or angles]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] ضَرْعٌ مُرَكَّنٌ A great udder; as though having اركان: (S, TA:) and an udder that has opened [or expanded] in its place so as to fill the أَرْفَاغ [or groins], and is not very long. (TA.) Tarafeh says, وَضَرَّتُهَا مُرَكَّنَةٌ دَرُورُ [And her udder is great, having much milk: or,] accord. to AA, مركّنة [here] signifies مجمّعة [app. meaning collecting much]. (TA.) and you say also نَاقَةٌ مُرَكَّنَةُ الضَّرْعِ (S, TA) [A she-camel great in the udder; or] whose udder has أَرْكَان by reason of its greatness. (TA.)

(Har p. 572.) He (a horse) ran with wide steps, and preceded, or outstripped. (S, TA. [See also سَهْبٌ, below.]) And [hence,] He was, or became, loquacious, or profuse of speech; (IAar, S, K;) like اسهم; (K * and TA in art. سهم;) [and] so اسهب فِى المَنْطِقِ : (JK:) or he doted; or was disordered in his intellect; but when a man makes many mistakes in his speech, you say of him أَفْنَدَ: (As, TA:) or he doted much, or often; or was much, or often, disordered in his intellect: (AO, TA:) [and it seems from an explanation of the part. n. مُسْهِبٌ that it probably signifies also he was eloquent, or profuse of correct speech:] or he was very greedy, and (in some copies of the K “ or ”) covetous, so as to refrain from nothing: (K, TA:) and you say also اسهب كَلَامَهُ He prolonged, or was prolix in, his speech: and فى كَلَامِهِ إِسْهَابٌ In his speech is prolixity.

(TA. [See also the part. n., مُسْهَبٌ, below.]) إِسْهَابُ اللُّبِّ [in which the former word is probably the inf. n. of أُسْهِبَ, not of أَسْهَبَ,] means The mind's being confounded, or perplexed, by [love of] a woman. (JK.) 8 إِسْتَهَبَ see 4, in the middle of the paragraph.

A4: سَبَتَ الشَّىْءَ, (M, TA,) inf. n. سَبْتٌ, (M, A, Mgh, K,) i. q. قَطَعَهُ [meaning He cut the thing; or cut it off; severed it; and intercepted, or interrupted, it; put a stop, or an end, to it; or made it to cease; relating to ideal as well as real objects; for instance, to work, or action, as is shown in the TA]; (M, A, Mgh, K, TA;) as also ↓ سبّتهُ: expl. by Lh as relating particularly to necks. (M, TA.) [Hence,] سَبَتَ عِلَاوَتَهُ, (S, M,) inf. n. سَبْتٌ, (S, K,) He smote his neck [so as to decapitate him]: (S, M, K:) and سُبِتَتْ عِلَاوَتُهُ, His head was cut off. (A. [This is there said to be tropical; but why, I do not see.]) b2: and سَبَتَتِ اللُّقْمَةُ حَلْقِى, and ↓ سَبَّتَتْهُ, i. q. قَطَعَتْهُ [i. e. The morsel, or gobbet, obstructed, or stopped, my fauces]: but the verb without teshdeed is the more usual. (M, TA.) b3: And سَبَتَ رَأْسَهُ, (M, A, Mgh, Msb,) aor. ـِ (M, Msb, TA,) inf. n. سَبْتٌ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) He shaved his head: (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K:) and in like manner, سَبَتَ شَعَرَهُ, he shaved off his hair; (TA;) as also ↓ سبّتهُ and ↓ اسبتهُ. (AA, TA in art. سبد.) b4: and سَبْتٌ also signifies The letting down the hair, or letting it fall or hang down, after (lit. from, عَن,) [the twisting, or plaiting, termed] العَقْص. (S, K.)

(Msb, TA.) 2 سَبَّتَ see 4: A2: and see also 1, latter half, in three places.4 أَسْبَتَ see 1, former half, in four places. b2: اسبتت الحَيَّةُ, inf. n. إِسْبَاتٌ The serpent was, or became, silent; or bent down its head, or lowered its eyes, looking towards the ground. (TA.) A2: [اسبت It (a drug) produced the kind, or degree, or semblance, of sleep termed سُبَات: and hence, it torpified, or benumbed: often used in this sense in medical works: and ↓ سبّت is also used in this sense in the present day.]

A3: See also 1, near the end of the paragraph.7 انسبت [It became cut off, interrupted, put a stop to, or put an end to, or it ceased: meanings indicated in this art. in the M and TA. b2: ] It became extended: (K:) or long and extended, together with softness. (TA.) It is said in a description of the countenance of the Prophet, (TA,) كَانَ فِى وَجْهِهِ انْسِبَاتٌ There was, in his face, length, and extension. (K, * TA.) b3: It (a hide) became soft by the process of tanning. (IAar, TA.) b4: انسبتت الرُّطَبَةُ The date became wholly pervaded by ripeness: (M, TA:) and became soft. (TA.) And انسبت الرُّطَبُ The dates became all ripe, or ripe throughout. (M, TA.) سَبْتٌ Rest: (S, K:) and quiet, stillness, or freedom from motion. (TA.) [See 1, of which it is an inf. n.] See also سُبَاتٌ. b2: السَّبْتُ, (M, K,) or يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ, (S, Msb,) [The sabbath, or Saturday;] one of the days of the week; (M, K;) the seventh of those days: (M:) so called because the creation commenced on the first day of the week and continued to [the end of] Friday, and on the سبت there was no creation, the work having ceased thereon: or, as some say, because the Jews ceased thereon from work, and the management of affairs: (M, TA:) or because the days [of the week] end thereon: (S, TA:) Az says that he errs who asserts it to have been so called because God commanded the Children of Israel to rest thereon, and that God created the heavens and the earth in six days, whereof the last was Friday, then rested, and the work ceased, and therefore He named the seventh day يوم السبت: this, he says, is an error, because [he affirms that] سَبَتَ as meaning “ he rested ” is not known in the language of the Arabs, but signifies قَطَعَ; and rest cannot be attributed to God, because He knows not fatigue, and rest is only after fatigue and work: (TA:) the pl. [of pauc.] is أَسْبُتٌ and [of mult.] سُبُوتٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) it has no dim. (Sb, S in art. امس.) b3: سَبْتٌ also means A week; from the سَبْت to the سَبْت [i. e. from the sabbath to the sabbath]: so in the saying, in a trad., فَمَا رَأَيْنَا الشَّمْسَ سَبْتًا [And we saw not the sun for a week]: as when one says “ twenty autumns ” meaning “ twenty years: ” or it means in this instance a space of time, whether short or long. (TA.) b4: I. q. بُرْهَةٌ [i. e. A space, or period, or a long space or period,] (M, K, TA) مِنَ الدَّهْرِ [of time]: (TA:) so in the saying, أَقَمْتُ سَبْتًا [I remained, staid, dwelt, or abode, a space, or a long space, of time]; as also ↓ سَبْتَةً and ↓ سَنْبَتًا and ↓ سَنْبَتَتًا. (M, K.) b5: And i. q. دَهْرٌ [meaning Time; or a long time; or a space, or period, of time, whether long or short; &c.]; as also ↓ سُبَاتٌ. (S, M, K.) And [hence] ↓ اِبْنَا سُبَاتٍ means (assumed tropical:) The night and the day: (S, M, K:) Ibn Ahmar says, وَكُنَّا وَهُمْ كَابْنَىْ سُبَاتٍ تَفَرَّقَا سِوًى ثُمَّ كَانَا مُنْجِدًا وَتَهَامِيَا [And we were, with them, like the night and the day that parted asunder alike, then became one going towards Nejd and one going towards Tihámeh]: (S, K:) such, they say, is the meaning: (S:) or, as IB says, on the authority of Aboo-Jaafar Mohammad Ibn-Habeeb, ابنا سبات were two men, one of whom saw the other in a dream, and then one of them awoke in Nejd, and the other in Tihámeh: or they were two brothers, one of whom went to the east to see where the sun rose, and the other to the west to see where it set. (L, TA.) A2: Also A certain pace (S, M, K) of camels: (S, K:) or a quick pace: (TA:) or i. q. عَنَقٌ [q. v.]: (AA, S:) or a pace exceeding that termed العَنَقُ. (M.)

(K) b3: A man cunning, i. e. possessing intelligence, or sagacity, or intelligence mixed with craft and forecast; and excellent in judgment; or very cunning &c.; (K, TA;) silent, or lowering his eyes, looking towards the ground; (TA;) and ↓ سُبَاتٌ signifies the same. (K, TA.) b4: A man who sleeps much; (K;) i. e. كَثِيرُ السُّبَاتِ. (TA.) See also مَسْبُوتٌ.

A4: See also what next follows.

سُبْتٌ A certain plant, resembling the خِطْمِىّ [or marsh-mallow]; (Kr, M, K;) as also ↓ سَبْتٌ, (K [there expressly said to be with fet-h],) or ↓ سِبْتٌ: (M [so written in a copy of that work]:) said to be a certain plant used for tanning. (MF.) See the next paragraph.

سِبْتٌ The hides, or skins, of oxen; (M, K;) whether tanned or not tanned: so some say: (M:) or (so accord. to the M, in the K and TA “ and,” but the و is omitted in the CK,) any tanned hide; (As, AA, M, K;) said to be so called [because the tanning removes the hair,] from السَّبْتُ, “the act of shaving: ” (AA, TA:) or such. as is tanned with قَرَظ [q. v.]: (M, K:) or only ox-hides tanned: so says AHn on the authority of As and Az: (TA:) or ox-hides tanned with قَرَظ, (S, Mgh,) whereof are made [the sandals called] ↓ نِعَالٌ سِبْتيَّةٌ: (S) these are hence thus called: (Mgh:) they are sandals having no hair upon them: (M, Msb:) or sandals tanned with قرَظ: (AA, TA:) accord. to Az, they are thus called because their hair has been shaven off (سُبِتَ, i. e. حُلِقَ,) and removed by a wellknown process in tanning, (Mgh, * TA,) so that they are soft; and they are of the sandals of people that lead a life of ease and softness: (Mgh:) IAar says that they are thus called because of their having become soft by the tanning: accord. to this, they should be called ↓ سَبْتِيَّة; and so accord. to a saying of EdDáwoodee, that they are called in relation to سُوقُ السَّبْتِ [“ the Market of the Sabbath ”]: it is also said that they are called in relation to the ↓ سُبْت, with damm, which is a plant used for tanning therewith; so that they should be called ↓ سُبْتِيَّة, unless the appellation be an instance of a rel. n. deviating from its source of derivation [or unless this plant be also termed سِبْتٌ, as it is accord. to a copy of the M]: (TA:) see سُبْتٌ.

It is related of the Prophet, that he saw a man walking among the graves wearing his sandals, and said, يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتَينِ اِخْلَعْ سِبْتَيْكَ [meaning (tropical:) O wearer of the pair of sandals of سِبْت, pull off thy pair of sandals of سِبْت]: (S, * TA:) and accord. to the A, they are thus termed tropically: it is like the saying “ Such a one wears wool, and cotton, and silk; ” meaning “ garments made thereof; ” as is said in the Nh: but, as some relate it, what he said was, ↓ يَا صَاحِبَ السِّبْتِيَّيْنِ, the last of these words being a rel. n.; and thus it is found in the handwriting of Az, in his book. (TA.) سِبِتٌّ, (M, L, K,) like فِلِزٌّ, (TA,) [in a copy of the M erroneously written سِبْت,] A certain plant; [anethum graveolens, or dill, of the common garden-species;] an arabicized word, from [the Pers\.] شِبِتّ [or شِبِتْ]: (AHn, M, L:) or i. q. شِبِتٌّ; both words arabicized from شِوِذْ [or شِوِدْ]: (K:) asserted by some to be the same as سَنُّوتٌ [q. v.]: (M, L:) Az says that شِبِتٌّ, the name of a well-known herb, or leguminous plant, is an arabicized word; that he had heard the people of El-Bahreyn call it سِبِتٌّ, with the unpointed س, and with ت; that it is originally, in Pers\., شِوِذْ; and that it has another dial. var., namely, سبط [i. e. سِبِطٌّ]. (El-Jawáleekee, TA.) سَبْتَةٌ: see سَبْتٌ, in the middle of the paragraph.

A2: Also Goats, collectively. (K.) سَبْتَآءُ A [desert such as is termed] صَحْرَآء: (Az, K:) or أَرْضٌ سَبْتَآءُ is like صَحْرَآءُ: or a land in which are no trees: (M:) and i. q. ↓ مَسْبُوتَةٌ [i. e. a bare land; as though shorn of its herbage]: (TA:) pl. سَبَاتِىُّ. (M.) b2: Also, [in like manner] a fem. epithet, Having spreading, or expanded, ears, whether long or short. (K.) سَبْتِىٌّ One who fasts alone on the سَبْت [i. e. sabbath, or Saturday]: thus in the saying mentioned by Th, on the authority of IAar, لَا تَكُ سَبْتِيًّا [Be not thou one who fasts &c.]. (M.) نِعَالٌ سِبْتِيَّةٌ, and سَبْتِيَّةٌ, and سُبْتِيَّةٌ; and the dual. of سِبْتِىٌّ, applied to a pair of sandals: see سِبْتٌ, in four places.

سِبْتَانٌ, with kesr, Foolish, stupid, or of little sense; (K, TA;) confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course; without understanding. (TA.) سُبَاتٌ primarily signifies Rest [like سَبْتٌ]: (S, Msb:) and hence, sleep: (S, K:) or heavy sleep: (Msb:) or sleep that is hardly perceptible (خَفِىّ, M, K, [in some copies of the K, as mentioned by Freytag, خَفِيف, i. e. light,]), like a swoon: (M:) or the commencement of sleep in the head [and its continuance] until it reaches the heart: (Th, M, K:) or the sleep of one who is sick; i. e. light sleep: (TA:) and ↓ سَبْتٌ signifies the same as سُبَاتٌ. (T, TA.) Hence, in the Kur [lxxviii. 9, and in like manner the word is used in xxv. 49], وَجَعَلْنَا نَوْمَكُمْ سُبَاتًا; (S;) i. e. قَطْعًا; as though a man, when he slept, were cut off from [the rest of] mankind: (IAar, TA:) or سبات is when one is cut off, or ceases, from motion, while the soul still remains in the body; i. e., the text means, And we have made your sleep to be rest unto you: (Zj, TA:) or we have made your sleep to be a cutting off from sensation and motion, for rest to the animal forces, and for causing their weariness to cease: or, to be death: (Bd:) or, to be rest unto your bodies by the interruption of labour, or work. (Jel.) A2: See also سَبْتٌ, latter half, in three places.

سَبُوتٌ A she-camel that goes the pace termed سَبْتٌ: or constantly going the pace termed عَنَقٌ. (M.) سَبَنْتًى, (S, M, K,) as also سَبَنْدًى, (S,) Bold, or daring; (S, M, K;) as an epithet applied to anything [i. e. man or brute]: the ى is added to render it quasi-coordinate to the class of quinqueliteral-radical words, not to denote the fem. gender, for it receives ة as a termination [to denote the fem.], becoming سَبَنْتَاةٌ; (S;) and has tenween. (TA.) A poet applies the fem. epithet to a she-camel. (S.) b2: Also The leopard; (S, M, K;) so too with ة; (AHeyth, L in art. سبد;) and so سَبَنْدًى: probably thus called because of his boldness, or daringness: (S:) or, as some ay, the lion: fem. with ة: or the fem, signifies a bold, or daring, lioness: or a she-camel of bold, or daring, breast; but this last is not of valid authority: (M:) and a beast of prey [absolutely]: (L in art. سيد:) pl. سَبَانِتُ; (K, TA;) and some of the Arabs make سَبَاتِى [or rather سَبَاتٍ] to be its pl. (TA.) b3: The fem. also, applied to a woman, signifies Sharp in tongue; or clamorous; or clamorous and foul-tongued; or long-tongued and vehemently clamorous. (TA.) سَنْبَةٌ: see سَبْتٌ, in the middle of the paragraph.

سَنْبَتَةٌ: see سَبْتٌ, in the middle of the paragraph.

مُسْبِتٌ Motionless; not moving. (S, K.) b2: And, accord. to the L and K, Entering upon the day called السَّبْتُ [i. e. the sabbath]: but correctly, entering upon the observance of the سَبْت [or sabbath]. (TA.) مَسْبُوتٌ Affected with [the kind, or degree, or semblance, of sleep termed] سُبَات [q. v.]: (IAar, M:) or affected with a swoon: and, applied to a sick man, prostrated like him who is sleeping, generally closing his eyes: (S:) or confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course: (Msb:) and ↓ سَبْتٌ signifies the same as مَسْبُوتٌ; as in the saying, cited by As, يُصْبِحُ مَخْمُورًا وَيُمْسِى سَبْتَا [He is in the morning affected with the remains of intoxication, and he is in the evening affected with sleep, or heavy sleep, &c.]. (T, TA.) b2: Also Dead. (S, K.) A2: رَأْسٌ مَسْبُوتٌ [A head cut off.] (A.) b2: أَرْضٌ مَسْبُوتَةٌ: see سَبْتَآءُ.

رُطَبٌ مُنْسَبِتٌ Dates that have become all ripe, or ripe throughout. (S, K.) And رَطَبَةٌ مُنْسَبِتَةٌ [A date that is ripe throughout: and also] a soft date. (TA.)

(S, K.) It is said in a prov., سَكَتَ أَلْفًا ونَطَقَ خَلْفًا He held his tongue from a thousand words (سَكَتَ عَنْ أَلْفِ كَلِمَةٍ), and then uttered what was wrong. (ISk, S and Msb in art. خلف.) and you say [of the quiescent ه that is sometimes added at the end of a word, after a vowel or a letter of prolongation, as in لَمْ يَرْضَهْ and وَا زَيْدَاهْ], هٰذِهِ هَآءُ السَّكْتِ [This is the هاء of pausation]. (A, TA.) One says also, of a she-camel, سَكَتَتْ, inf. n. سُكُوتٌ, meaning She uttered not the [grumbling] cry termed رُغَآء when the saddle was put upon her. (ISd, TA.) b2: [Hence سَكَتَ, aor. as above, inf. n. سَكْتٌ, as syn. with سَكَنَ, meaning as expl. above; and also (assumed tropical:) It was, or became, still, quiet, motionless, at rest, stilled, quieted, appeased, tranquillized, calm, allayed, assuaged, or quelled; it remitted; it subsided; and so ↓ اسكت.] You say, ضَرَبَهُ حَتَّى سَكَتَتْ حَرَكَتُهُ (A) or حركته ↓ أَسْكَتَتْ (TA) (tropical:) [He beat him until his motion became stilled]; and ↓ حتّى أَسْكَتَ (assumed tropical:) [until he became still]. (TA.) And سَكَتَ الغَضَبُ i. q. سَكَنَ, (S, Msb, TA,) meaning فَتَرَ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) The anger remitted; or became stilled, appeased, or allayed]; (TA:) as also ↓ اسكت: (Msb:) and سَكَتَ عَنْهُ الغَضَبُ (tropical:) [Anger, or the anger, became stilled so that it departed from him]. (A.) Hence, in the Kur [vii. 153], وَلَمَّا سَكَتَ عَنْ مُوسَى

الغَضَبُ, (S,) meaning, accord. to Zj, سَكَنَ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) And when the anger became stilled so that it departed from Moses]: or, as some say, the phrase is inverted, the meaning being وَلَمَّا سَكَتَ مُوسَى عَنِ الغَضَبِ [And when Moses was silent, ceasing from anger]: but the former is the explanation of those skilled in the Arabic language. (TA. [See also 4.]) You say also, سَكَتَ الحَرُّ, meaning (assumed tropical:) The heat became vehement, or intense, the wind being still. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] (assumed tropical:) He died: (K:) occurring in this sense in a trad. (TA.) b4: سَاكَتَنِى فَسَكَتُّ: see 3.

A2: سَكَتَ said of a horse, [from السُّكَيْتُ,] He came in tenth in a race. (TA.) 2 سَكَّتَ see 4, in two places.3 سَاْكَتَ ↓ سَاكَتَنِى فَسَكَتُّ [may mean He kept silence with me and I was silent: or he vied with me in keeping silence and I surpassed therein: or it may have both of these meanings; both being agreeable with analogy]. (S, TA; in neither of which it is explained.) 4 اسكت as an intrans. verb: see 1, in nine places. b2: He turned away, and spoke not; occurring in this sense in a trad.: and اسكت عَنِ الشَّىْءِ He turned away from the thing. (TA.) A2: اسكتهُ and ↓ سكّتهُ (S, A, Msb) both signify the same, said of God (S) [and of a man]; He made him, or rendered him, silent, mute, or speechless; (Msb;) [he silenced, or hushed, him;] namely, a person speaking. (A.) And اسكتهُ عَنِى [He made him to abstain from speaking of, or to, me]. (As, TA in art. نصت.) And اسكت الصَّبِىَّ بِسُكْتَةٍ

[He silenced, or hushed, the child with a سُكْتَة]. (Lh, S, A, K.) And أُسْكِتَ means He was silenced in a dispute or the like. (A, TA.) b2: [And hence, (assumed tropical:) He stilled, quieted, appeased, tranquillized, calmed, allayed, assuaged, or quelled, it.] In the Kur vii. 153, some read, ↓ وَلَمَّا سُكِتَ عَنْ مُوسَى الغَضَبُ and أُسْكِتَ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) And when the anger was stilled so that it was made to depart from Moses]. (Bd. [For the usual reading see 1, latter part.]) سَكْتٌ an inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (S, &c.) b2: and [hence,] A division [or pause] between two musical sounds, or notes, without breathing; (T, K, TA;) as also ↓ سَكْتَةٌ. (TA.) A2: See also سِكِّيتٌ, in two places.

سَكْتَةٌ A single state of silence, muteness, or speechlessness. (Msb.) One says, لِلْجُبْلَى صَرْخَةٌ ثُمَّ سَكْتَةٌ [To the pregnant woman is attributable a vehement cry, then a silence]. (A, TA.) b2: In prayer, A silence [or pause] after the commencement; [i. e. after what precedes the first recitation of the Opening Chapter of the Kur-án;] which is approved: and, in like manner, after the ending of the recitation of the Opening Chapter of the Kur-án. (T, TA.) b3: See also سَكْتٌ. b4: Also A certain disease [by which a person loses his powers of speech and motion], (S, K, TA,) well known among the physicians; (TA;) [i. e. apoplexy; thus called in the present day:] accord. to some, the word in this sense should be written ↓ سِكْتَةٌ, because it denotes a mode [of silence or stillness]; but this is incorrect, being at variance with the authority of transmission. (TA.) b5: See also the next paragraph: A2: and see سِكِّيتٌ.

سُكْتَةٌ: see سِكْتَةٌ. b2: Also A thing (S, A, Msb, K) of any kind (S) with which one silences, or hushes, or quiets, a child, (S, A, Msb, K,) or other person; (S, K;) [generally meaning a lullaby of any kind for a child:] and somewhat remaining in a bag or other receptacle, (K, TA,) i. e. of food. (TA.) One says, مَا لَهُ سُكْتَةٌ لِعِيَالِهِ, and ↓ سَكْتَةٌ, meaning He has not any food with which to silence, or quiet his family, or household. (Lh, TA.) سِكْتَةٌ is a subst. from سَكَتَ; [signifying Silence, &c.; like سُكُوتٌ used as a subst.;] as also ↓ سُكْتَةٌ. (Lh, TA.) b2: See also سَكْتَةٌ.

سُكَاتٌ Constant, or continual, silence. (Msb.) Hence, by way of comparison, one says, الإِفْحَامُ سُكَاتٌ [as though meaning The state of being silenced in a dispute, &c., is a state of constant, or continual, silence: but it seems to mean, more probably, الافحام (as an act. inf. n.) is an act that silences; agreeably with what here follows]. (Msb.) b2: رَمَاهُ بِسُكَاتٍ (Az, M, K) and ↓ سُكَاتَةٍ, (Az, S, M, A, K,) to which latter is generally added وَصُمَاتَةٍ, (M, TA,) He (a man, S, M, and God, TA) smote him, or afflicted him, with a thing that silenced him; (S, A, K;) thought by ISd to mean, with anxiety, or grief, that silenced him, or a thing in consequence of which he became silent: not expl. by Az. (TA.) b3: [In like manner] one says also, ↓ رَمَاهُ بِالمُسْكِتَاتِ [He smote him, or afflicted him, with the words, or acts, that silenced him]. (T in art. رم, from Aboo-Málik.) And بِهِ سُكَاتٌ [He has in him that which makes him silent]: said of one long silent in consequence of disease (A, TA) or of some evil in him. (TA.) And أَصَابَ سُكَاتًا He met with, or experienced, a disease that prevented him from speaking. (TA.) b4: هُوَعَلَى سُكَاتِ الأَمْرِ He is at the point of accomplishing the affair. (K.) And كُنْتُ عَلَى سُكَاتِ هٰذِهِ الحَاجَةِ I was at the point of attaining this want, or needful affair.

(TA.) One says, (ISk,) or some say, (Msb,) قَضَتْ بِهِ السُّلْطَانُ (ISk, Msb) The sovereign, or ruling, power (↓ السَّلْطَنَةُ) decreed it. (Msb.) And Aboo-Zuheyr says, I heard one, in whose chasteness of speech I have confidence, say, أَتَتْنَا سُلْطَانٌ جَائِرَةٌ [A tyrannical sovereign, or ruling, power, came to us]. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., إِلَّا أَنْ تَسْأَلَ ذَا سُلْطَان ٍ, meaning Unless thou ask the ruler, or governor, or the king, for thy due from the public treasury. (Mgh.)

“ oil of olives,” because it enlightens: (TA:) and in these senses it has no pl., because it is used in the place of an inf. n. (S, TA.) Accord. to I'Ab, it signifies حُجَّة wherever it occurs in the Kur. (TA.) But in the words of the Kur [xvii. 35], فَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا لِوَلِّيِهِ سُلْطَانًا, the meaning may be either [We have given to his executor, or heir,] authority, and power, or absolute authority and power, or the like; or a plea, or the like.

Az says that it is sometimes masc. because it has a masc. form; and thus it is in the last of the instances above. (TA.) b4: Also A ruler, or governor, or the like; a king; a sovereign; (S, K, TA;) a khaleefeh: (TA:) these are its most common applications [in the writings of post-classical times]: (TA:) thus applied because the person so called is made to predominate; to have, or exercise, superior power or force; to have dominion, or the like: or because he is one of the evidences of God: (Aboo-Bekr, TA:) or because he possesses proof or evidence [of his right]: or because by him pleas and rights are established: (TA:) or because he enlightens the earth, (Msb, * B,) and is of great usefulness; (B;) the word being derived from سَلِيطٌ [signifying “ olive-oil ”]: (Msb:) it is of the measure فُعْلَانٌ: (S:) and when [thus] applied to a person, it is masc.: (Msb:) or it is masc. and fem.: (S, TA:) accord. to Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed, (TA,) fem. because it is [originally] pl. of سَلِيطٌ applied to “ oil; ” as though the kingdom shone by him; or because it has the signification of حُجَّةٌ: and sometimes masc., because regarded as meaning a man; (K, TA;) or because regarded as a sing.: so says Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed; but Az observes that none beside him says this: Fr says that he who makes it masc. regards it as meaning رَجُلٌ; and he who makes it fem. regards it as meaning حُجَّةٌ: (TA:) the pl. is سَلَاطِينُ. (S, Msb.) It is also, itself, sometimes used as a pl.; as in the phrase سَيِّدُ السُّلْطَانِ, used by a poet, meaning سَيِّدُ السَّلَاطِينَ [The lord of kings]; i. e. the khaleefeh: [but this may be rendered the lord of sovereign power, &c.:] or, as some say, the latter word is here pl. of سَلِيطٌ, like as رُغْفَانٌ is pl. of رَغِيفٌ. (Msb.) سَلَطَانَةٌ, and سِلِطَانَةٌ, or سِلِطَّانَةٌ: see سَلِيطٌ.

سَلِيطٌ Strong, or hard; (M, K;) as also ↓ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ. (K.) You say, ↓ حَافِرٌ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ, (TA,) and سَلِيطٌ, (M, TA,) A strong, or hard, solid hoof.

You say also ↓ سَنَابِكُ سَلِطَاتٌ Sharp edges of the fore parts of hoofs.

(Az, TA.) You say also, لِسَانٌ سَلِيطٌ, (M, K,) and ↓ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ, (K,) A long tongue. (M, K.) A2: Oil of olives; (S, M, Msb, K;) so applied by the generality of the Arabs: but by the people of El-Yemen applied to oil of sesame, or sesamum: (S, M:) IDrd, in the JM, says the reverse; and IF has followed him; but what J says is right, as Sgh, has observed in the O: (TA:) also, (K,) or as some say, (M,) any oil expressed from grains or berries: (M, K:) pl. سُلْطَانٌ. (Msb, K.) أَسْلَطُ More, and most, overcoming, prevailing, predominating, or superior in power or force. (Har p. 661.) b2: هُوَ أَسْلَطُهُمْ لِسَانًا He is the most chaste, or eloquent, and the sharpest, [&c., (see an ex. voce سِلْقٌ,)] of them in tongue. (S.)

An Arab of the desert said to a man who had done a good act to him, (TA,) سَبَّعَ اللّٰهُ لَكَ May God give thee thy reward, or recompense, seven times, or seven fold. (K, TA.) The Arabs also said, سَبَّعَ اللّٰهُ لَكَ أَجْرَهَا May God multiply to thee the reward, or recompense, for it; meaning, for this good act: (Aboo-Sa'eed:) [for] تَسْبِيعٌ is used by them to signify the act of multiplying, though it be more than seven fold. (TA.) And سَبَّعَ اللّٰهُ لِفُلَانٍ is used as meaning May God make a thing to be followed by another thing to such a one; in relation to good and to evil; as also تَبَّعَ لَهُ. (TA.) and سَبَّعَ اللّٰهُ لَكَ meaning May God bless thee with seven children. (TA.) b4: He washed it (namely, a vessel,) seven times. (K.)

(TA.) b8: سبّع دَرَاهِمَهُ He made his dirhems to be seventy complete; but this is post-classical; (K;) and in like manner, دراهمه ↓ سَبْعَنَ, meaning the same, and also post-classical, and not allowable; the proper phrase to express the meaning “ I made it to be seventy ” being كَمَّلْتُهُ سَبْعِينَ. (TA.) b9: سَبَّعَتِ القَوْمُ The people, or company of men, completed the number of seven hundred men: (K, TA:) occurring in a trad, (TA.) 3 سِبَاعٌ (K,) inf. n. of سابع, (TK,) The performing of the act of coïtus, (IAar, Th, K,) with a woman. (TK.) b2: The vying with another in the endeavour to surpass him in obscene, or lewd, language, and in frequency of coïtus, and in speaking plainly of such subjects as should only be alluded to, in relation to women: (IAar, K: *) such seems to be its meaning in a trad. in which the doing this is forbidden. (IAar.) b3: (assumed tropical:) Mutual reviling, vilifying, or vituperating; (K, TA;) when each of two men assails the other with foul language, such as displeases him: (TA:) this is said by some to be its meaning in the trad. in which it is forbidden. (TA.) 4 اسبع, said of a party of men, It became seven: (S, K:) also, it became seventy. (M and L in art. ثلث.) b2: Said of a man, it signifies He was, or became, one whose camels came to the water on the seventh day [counting the day of the next preceding watering as the first].

A3: اسبعهُ i. q. أَطْعَمَهُ السَّبُعَ [which may be rendered He gave him as food the animal of prey, or he gave him as food to the animal of prey; but it seems from what here follows that the former is meant]: (S, K:) in the “ Mufradát,” [he gave him as food] the flesh of the سَبُع. (TA.) A4: He gave him, or delivered him, (namely, his son,) to the ظُؤُورَة [which means both nurse and nurses].

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.

سُبَيْعَةٌ dim. of سَبُعَةٌ, q. v.

سُبَاعِىٌّ A garment, or piece of cloth, seven cubits, or seven spans, in length. (TA.) b2: A great and tall camel; (En-Nadr, K;) [as though seven cubits in height:] fem. with ة. (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].
