Pers\. حَرَرْتَ, aor. ـِ and حَرُّ; inf. n. حَرٌّ and حُرُورٌ (S, Msb, K) and حَرَارَةٌ, (S, K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and حِرَّةٌ; (TA;) and ↓ احرّ, (S, K,) a dial. var. heard by Ks, (S,) and mentioned by Zj and IKtt; (TA;) It (a day, S, A, Msb, K, and food, Msb) was, or became, hot; (A, Msb, K;) or very hot.

Lh mentions حَرِرْتَ يَا رَجُلُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. حِرَّةٌ [perhaps a mistake for حَرَّةٌ] and حَرَارَةٌ: [app. in the same sense:] ISd says, I think he means [from] الحَرُّ, not الحُرِّيَّةُ. (TA.) And حَرَرٌ [an inf. n. of the same verb] signifies The liver's becoming dry from thirst or grief. (TA.) A2: حَرَّ, sec. Pers\. حَرِرْتَ, aor. ـَ (S, A, * Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. حَرَارٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) He (a slave, S) became free: (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K:) and ↓ تحرّر in the same sense is agreeable with analogy. (Mgh.) b2: And حَرَّ, sec. Pers\. and aor. as above, inf. n. حُرِّيَّةٌ, He (a man) was freeborn, or of free origin. (S.) A3: حَرَّ, [sec. Pers\.

حَرَرْتَ,] aor. ـُ inf. n. حَرٌّ, He heated water (A, * K) &c. (A.) A4: حَرَّ, aor. ـِ He cooked [what is termed] حَرِيرَة: (K:) and حَرَّتْ she made حريرة. (A.) Hence, in a trad., ذُرِّى وَأَنَا أَحِرُّ لَكِ Sprinkle thou the flour, and I will make of it حريرة for thee. (TA.) 2 حرّر, inf. n. تَحْرِيرٌ, He freed, liberated, or emancipated, a slave. (A, Mgh, Msb.) and حرّر رَقَبَةً He freed a neck [i. e. a slave]. (S, K.) b2: Also He set apart a child for the worship of God and the service of the mosque or oratory: (S, TA:) or he devoted him to the service of the church as long as he should live, so that he could not relinquish it while he retained his religion. (TA.) b3: Also, inf. n. as above, (tropical:) He made a writing &c. accurate, or exact; (S, K;) he made a writing beautiful, or elegant, and free from defects, by forming its characters rightly, and rectifying its faults: (A:) he wrote a writing well, or elegantly, and accurately, or exactly; (TK;) he wrote well, or elegantly: (KL:) and he made an account, or a reckoning, accurate, without mistake, and without omission, and without erasure. (TA.) [And simply (tropical:) He wrote a letter &c.]4 احرّ: see 1. b2: Also His (a man's) camels became thirsty. (S, K.) A2: Also He (God) made a man's liver to become dry by reason of thirst or grief. (TA.) And He made a man's bosom thirsty; as in the saying, used by the Arabs in cursing a man, مَا لَهُ أَحَرَّ اللّٰهُ صَدْرَهُ [What aileth him? May God make his bosom thirsty]: or the meaning is هَامَتَهُ [app. here used as signifying the bird called هَامَة, in the form of which the soul was believed to issue from a slain man, and to call incessantly for drink until the slaughter of the slayer]. (TA.) 5 تَحَرَّّ see 1.10 استحرّ (S, K) and ↓ حَرَّ (S, TA) (tropical:) It (slaughter) was, or became, vehement, (S, K,) and great in extent; (TA;) and the same is said of death. (TA.) A2: استحرّها He asked, or desired, of her [that she should make what is termed] حَرِيرَة. (A.) [See 1, last signification.]

حِرٌ: see حِرٌّ, below; and see also art. حرح.

حِرِىٌّ: see art. حرح.

حَرٌّ Heat; contr. of بَرْدٌ; (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ حَرَارَةٌ, (S, * Msb, * K,) contr. of بُرُودَةٌ; (S;) and ↓ حُرُورٌ (S, * Msb, * K) and ↓ حِرَّةٌ: (TA:) [see 1, first sentence:] pl. [of the first]

حُرُورٌ and ↓ أَحَارِرُ; (K;) the latter anomalous, both as to its measure and in the non-incorporation of the first ر into the second: it is mentioned on the authority of Az and others; but IDrd doubts its correctness; and the author of the Wá'ee mentions أَحَارُّ as a pl. form, but apparently to avoid contrariety to rule: the pl. of ↓ حَرَارَةٌ as a simple subst., or as an inf. n., but more probably as the former, is حَرَارَاتٌ. (TA.) b2: (assumed tropical:) A burning of the heart, from pain and wrath and distress or affliction or trouble or fatigue. (TA.) [See also حَرَارَةٌ.] b3: (assumed tropical:) Difficulty, or severity, of work. (TA.) A2: See also حَارٌّ: A3: and حَرَّةٌ: A4: and سَاقُ حُرٍّ, voce حُرٌّ.

حُرٌّ Free, ingenuous, or free-born; contr. of عَبْدٌ: (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K:) fem. حُرَّةٌ: (S, Mgh, Msb, K:) pl. masc. أَحْرَارٌ (Msb, K) and حِرَارٌ; (IJ, K;) not حَرَارٌ, as some say; nor is حِرَارٌ an inf. n. as well as a pl., as others say: (MF:) pl. fem. حَرَائِرُ, (Msb, K,) contr. to analogy, and, as Suh says, the only instance of the kind except شَجَرٌ مَرَائِرُ as pl. of شَجَرَةٌ مُرَّةٌ; for the [regular] pl. of فُعْلَةٌ is فْعَلٌ; but حُرَّةٌ has this form of pl. because it is syn. with كَرِيمَةٌ and عَقِيلَةٌ [as will be seen in what follows]; and مُرَّةٌ, because it means خَبِيثَةُ الطَّعْمِ. (Msb.) Omar said to the women who used to go forth to the mosque, لَأَرُدَّنَّكْنَّ حَرَائِرَ [lit. I will assuredly make you to become free women]; meaning I will assuredly make you to keep to the houses: for the curtain is lowered before free women; not before slavewomen. (TA.) [See also حُرِّيَّةٌ.] b2: (tropical:) Generous, noble, or well-born; like as عَبْدٌ is used to signify “ ignoble,” or “ base-born: ” (Mgh:) and so the fem. حُرَّةٌ; (S, Mgh, K;) applied to a woman; (TA;) and to a she-camel: (S:) and so the masc. applied to a horse. (K, TA.) [Hence,] بَاتَتْ بِلَيْلَةِ حُرَّةٍ (tropical:) [She passed a virgin's night] is said of her whose husband has not been able to devirginate her (S, A, K) in the night when she has been first brought to him: (TA:) because the حُرَّة is modest and repugnant: (Har p. 418:) in the contr. case one says, بِلَيْلَةِ شَيْبَآءَ: (S, L:) and one says also بِلَيْلَةٍ حُرَّةٍ; and بِلَيْلَةٍ شَيْبَآءَ. (TA.) [And hence,] لَيْلَةُ حُرَّة and لَيْلَةٌ حُرَّةٌ signify also (assumed tropical:) The first night of the [lunar] month: (K:) its last night is called لَيْلَةُ شَيْبَآءَ and لَيْلَةٌ شَيْبَآءُ. (TA.) You say also وَجْهٌ حُرٌّ (tropical:) [app. meaning An ingenuous countenance]. (A.) b3: (tropical:) Generous, or ingenuous, in conduct: as in the saying of Imra-el-Keys, لَعَمْرُكَ مَا قَلْبِى إِلَى أَهْلِهِ بِحْرْ [By thy life, my heart is not generous in conduct to its, or his, companion]; meaning that it is averse therefrom, and inclines to another. (Az, TA.) [Hence,] سَحَابَةٌ حُرَّةٌ (tropical:) A cloud bountiful with rain; (A;) or abounding with rain. (S, K.) b4: (tropical:) A good deed or action. (K, TA.) Yousay, مَاهٰذَا مِنْكَ بِحُرٍّ (tropical:) This is not good, or well, of thee. (S, A.) b5: (assumed tropical:) Anything good, or excel-lent; as poetry, &c. (TA.) You say كَلَامٌ حُرٌّ (tropical:) [app. meaning good, or excellent, speech or language]. (A.) b6: (tropical:) Good earth, or clay, and sand: (K, TA:) or earth, or clay, in which is no sand: (S, A:) and sand in which is no earth or clay: (S:) or sand that has good herbage: (A:) you say رَمْلَةٌ حُرَّةٌ; (S, A;) and the pl. is حَرَائِرُ: (S:) or sand in which is no mixture of any other thing: (Msb: [accord. to which, this is the primary meaning of the word, whence the meaning of “ free,” i. e. the “ contr. of عَبْدٌ: ” but accord. to the A and TA, it is tropical:]) and أَرْضٌ حُرَّةٌ (tropical:) land in which is no salt earth: (A:) or in which is no sand: as applied to that upon which no tithe is levied, it is post-classical. (Mgh.) b7: (tropical:) The middle, (S, A, K,) and best part, (TA,) of sand, (S, K, TA,) and of a house. (S, A, TA.) b8: (assumed tropical:) The best of anything; (K, TA;) as, for instance, of fruit. (TA.) b9: Also sing. of أَحْرَار in the term أَحْرَارُ البُقُولِ, (TA,) which means (tropical:) Herbs, or leguminous plants, that are eaten without being cooked; (S, A;) as also البُقُولِ ↓ حُرِّيَّةُ: (A:) or such as are slender and succulent; and ذُكُورُ البُقُولِ means “ such as are thick and rough: ” (AHeyth:) or the former are such as are slender and soft; and the latter, “such as are hard and thick: ” (TA in art. عشب:) or the former are such as are slender and sweet; and the latter, “ such as are thick, and inclining to bitterness: ” (TA in art. ذكر:) or the former are such as are rough; and these are three, namely, النَّفَلُ and الحُرْبُثُ and القَفْعَآءُ: or الحُرُّ is applied to a plant of the kind called النَّجِيل, growing in salt grounds. (TA.) b10: حُرُّ الوَجْهِ (tropical:) What appears of the face: (K, TA:) or what appears of the elevated part of the cheek; (S;) [i. e.] the ball, or most prominent place, of the cheek; (W p. 28;) and ↓ الحُرَّةُ signifies [the same, or] the elevated part of the cheek: (TA:) or the former is what fronts one, of the face: or the four tracks of the tears, from each corner of each eye. (TA.) One says, لَطَمَهُ عَلَى حُرِّ وَجْهِهِ (tropical:) [He slapped him on the ball of his cheek]. (S, TA. *) A2: The young one of a gazelle. (S, K.) b2: The young one of a serpent: (S, K:) or of a slender serpent: or it is a slender serpent, like the جَانّ, of a white colour: or a white serpent: or a serpent, absolutely. (TA.) b3: The young one of a pigeon: (S, K:) or the male thereof. (TA.) b4: سَاقُ حُرٍّ [is said to signify] The male of the قَمَارِىّ [or kind of collared turtle-doves of which the female is called قُمْرِيَّة (see قُمْرِىٌّ)]: (S, Msb, K:) Homeyd Ibn-Thowr says, وَمَا هَاجَ هٰذَا الشَّوْقَ إِلَّا حَمَامَةٌ دَعَتْ سَاقَ حُرٍّ تَرْحَةً وَتَرَنُّمَا [And nothing excited this desire but a pigeon (see حَمَامٌ) that called ساق حرّ, sorrowing and warbling]: or, accord. to IJ, the right reading is دَعَتْ سَاقَ حُرٍّ فِى حَمَامٍ تَرَنُّمَا [that called ساق حرّ among other pigeons, warbling]: but some say that الساق is the pigeon; and حرّ, its young one: or ساق حرّ is the cry of the قمارىّ, and is an onomatopœia: accord. to Aboo-'Adnán, it is ↓ ساق حَرّ, and means the warbling of the pigeon: and Sakhr El-Gheí makes it a compound, and indecl.; using the phrase, تُنَادِى

سَاقَ حُرَّ [she calls ساق حرّ]: on which IJ observes, As says, ساق حرّ is thought to mean the young one of the bird; but it is her cry: and he (IJ) adds, the fact that the poet [Sakhr] does not make it decl. is an evidence of the correctness of the assertion of As; for, were it decl., he would have said سَاقَ حُرٍّ if it consisted of two nouns whereof the former was prefixed to the other so as to govern it in the gen. case, or ساق حُرًّا if it were a compound; as it is indeterminate: and its being made decl. by Homeyd does not show it to be not significant of a sound; for sometimes an expression significant of a sound consists of two nouns whereof the former is prefixed to the latter so as to govern it in the gen. case, like خَازُ بَازٍ. (M, MF, TA.) حِرٌّ (Msb, K) and ↓ حِرٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, and K, in art. حرح) The vulva, or pudendum, of a woman: (Msb, K:) the former a dial. var. of the latter; (K;) originally حِرْحٌ [q. v.].

(TA.) الحُرَّةُ: see حُرٌّ. b2: حُرَّةُ الذِّفْرَى (tropical:) The part of the protuberance behind the ear where the earring swings about: (S, K: *) or it is an epithet, signifying beautiful and smooth and long in the protuberance behind the ear; applied to a woman and to a she-camel.

(S, K.) One says, رَمَاهُ اللّٰهُ بِالحِرَّةِ تَحْتَ القِرَّةِ (A, K) May God afflict him by thirst with cold: and بِالحِرَّةِ وَالقِرَّةِ by thirst and cold. (TA.) And أَشَدُّ العَطَشِ حِرَّةٌ عَلَى قِرَّةٍ The most severe of thirst is thirst in a cold day. (S.)

(Zj.) حُرُورٌ: see حَرٌّ.

A poet says, وَزَادَهُ كَلَفًا فِى الحُبِّ أَنْ مَنَعَتْ وَحَبَّ شَيْئًا الَى الانْسَانِ مَا مُنِعَا [And her denying increased his devotion in love: for lovely, as a thing, to man, is that which is denied]. (TA.) And Sá'ideh says, هَجَرَتْ غَضُوبُ وَحَبَّ مَنْ يَتَجَنَّبُ وَعَدَتْ عَوَادٍ دُونَ وَلْيِكَ تَشْعِبُ [Ghadoob hath forsaken thee, (and lovely is the person who withdraweth far away,) and obstacles in the way of thy drawing near have occurred to separate thee and her]. (S, TA.) [See also حَبَّذَا, below.] b3: [Both are also verbs of wonder.] Yousay, حَبَّ بِفُلَانٍ, (As, S, and so in copies of the K,) and حُبَّ, (I 'Ak p. 236, [where both forms are mentioned as correct,] and so in the CK,) How beloved, or lovely, &c., is such a one (As, S, K) to me! (As, S.) [See also 4.] A'Obeyd and Fr read this حَبَّ, saying that it means حَبُبَ بفلان, and that the former ب is rendered quiescent by the suppression of its dammeh, and incorporated into the latter. (S, * TA.) A2: See also 4, in two places.

A3: Also حَبَّ, [aor., accord. to analogy, حَبِّ,] He stood still, stopped, or paused. (K.) A4: And حُبَّ, with damm, He was fatigued, or tired. (K.) 2 حبّبهُ إِلَىَّ He, or it, [rendered him, or it, an object of love, lovely, or pleasant, to me;] made me to love, affect, like, approve, or take pleasure in, him, or it. (K.) You say, حبّبهُ إِلَىَّ

إِحْسَانُهُ [His beneficence made him an object of love to me]. (A, TA.) And حَبَّبَ اللّٰهُ إِلَيْهِ الإِيمَانَ [God made faith lovely to him]. (A, TA.) and حُبِّبَ إِلَىَّ بِأَنْ تَزُورَنِى [Thy visiting me hath been made pleasant to me]. (A, TA.) A2: حبّب الدَّوَآءَ [He formed the medicine into pills, or little clots or balls: see its quasi-pass., 5]. (K in حثر, &c.) A3: And حبّب He filled a water-skin &c. (AA, TA.) A4: See also 5.3 مُحَابَّةٌ, (S,) or مُحَابَبَةٌ, (K,) and حِبَابٌ signify the same [as inf. ns. of حابّ]. (S, K.) [You say, حابّ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا They loved, affected, liked, approved, or took pleasure in, one another.] and حابّهُ He acted, or behaved, in a loving, or friendly, manner with him, or to him. (A, TA.) b2: See also 4.4 احبّهُ, (S, A, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِحْبَابٌ; (KL;) and ↓ حَبَّهُ, (S,) first Pers\. حَبَبْتُهُ, (Msb, K,) aor. ـِ which is anomalous, (S, Msb, K,) the regular aor. being حَبُ3َ, which is unused, (Msb,) [said to be] the only instance of a trans. verb whose second and third radical letters are the same having the measure يَفْعِلُ as that of its aor. without having also the measure يَفْعُلُ, (S,) and therefore by some disapproved, as not chaste, and disallowed by Az, though he allows the pass. form حُبَّ, (TA,) inf. n. حُبٌّ, (K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and حِبٌّ; (K;) and [↓ حَبَّهُ,] first Pers\. حَبِبْتُهُ, aor. ـَ and ↓ حَابّهُ, inf. n. حِبَابٌ, of the dial. of Hudheyl; (Msb;) and ↓ استحبّهُ; (Msb, K;) signify the same; (S, Msb, K;) He loved, affected, liked, approved, or took pleasure in, him, or it: (A, K, and KL in explanation of the first and last:) he held him, or esteemed him, as a friend: (KL in explanation of the first and last:) or اِسْتِحْبَابٌ signifies the esteeming [a person or thing] good: (S:) and the preferring, or choosing, [a person or thing,] as also إِحْبَابٌ: (KL:) and استحبّهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ means he loved, or esteemed, him, or it, above another, or others; preferred him, or it, to another, or others. (K, A, * TA.) مَا أَحَبْتُ ذٰلِكَ, in the dial. of the tribe of Suleym, is for ما أَحْبَبْتُهُ [I loved not, or liked not, that]; like ظَنْتُ for ظَنَنْتُ, and ظَلْتُ and ظِلْتُ for ظَلِلْتُ. (Lh, TA.) [أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَكوُنَ كَذَا may be rendered I would that it were thus, or that such a thing were.] It is said of Ohod, in a trad., هُوَ جَبَلٌ يُحِبُّنَا وَنُحِبُّهُ, meaning It is a mountain whose inhabitants love us, and whose inhabitants we love: or it may mean we love the mountain itself, because it is in the land of people whom we love. (IAth, TA.) And one says فِى سَاعَةٍ يُحِبُّهَا الطَّعَامُ for يُحَبُّ فِيهَا [In an hour, or a time, in which food is loved, or liked]. (TA.) b2: مَا أَحَبَّهُ

إِلَىَّ i. q. حَبَّ بِهِ [How beloved, lovely, pleasing, charming, or excellent, is he, or it, to me!]; (As, S, K, * TA;) and so أَحْبِبْ إِلَىَّ بِهِ. (A, TA.) [De Sacy, in his Gram. Ar., sec. ed., ii. 221, mentions the saying, مَا أَحَبَّ المُؤْمِنَ للّٰهِ وَمَا أَحَبَّهُ إِلَى اللّٰهِ, as meaning How greatly does the believer love God! and how great an object of love is he to God!]

A2: احبّ, (S, K,) inf. n. as above, (S,) also signifies He (a camel) kneeled and lay down, and would not spring up: (K:) or was restive: or kneeled and lay down: (S:) or was afflicted by a fracture, or disease, and would not move from his place until cured, or remained there until he died: (Az, S, K:) or became jaded: (TA: [agreeably with this last explanation the act. part. n. is rendered in the S and K on the authority of Th:]) or was at the point of death, by reason of violent disease, and therefore kneeled and lay down, and could not be roused. (AHeyth, TA.) Accord. to AO, أَحْبَبْتُ حُبَّ الخَيْرِ عَنْ ذِكْرِ رَبِّى [in the Kur xxxviii. 31] means I have stuck to the ground, on account of my love of the horses, [lit., of good things,] and so been diverted from prayer, until the time of prayer has passed: (TA:) by الخير is meant الخَيْل. (Jel.) A3: Also He became in a state of recovery from his disease. (K.) A4: And It (seed-produce) had, bore, or produced, grain. (S, K.) 5 تجبّب He manifested, or showed, love, or affection, (S, K,) إِلَيْهِ to him. (S.) تحبّب and ↓ حَبَّ are both syn. with تُودّد. (TA.) b2: [Also, app., He became, or made himself, an object of love or affection to him: see مُحَبَّبٌ, said to be syn. with مُتَحَبِّبٌ.]

A2: He became swollen, or inflated, like a jar (حُبّ), from drinking. (A, TA.) b2: It (a water-skin &c.) became full. (AA, TA.) b3: He began to be satiated with drink. (K.) b4: He (an ass &c.) became filled with water: (S:) and ↓ حَبَّبَ also is used in this sense, but ISd doubts its correctness: (TA:) one says, شَرِبَتِ الإِبِلُ حَتَّى حَبَّبَتْ The camels drank until they were satiated. (S.) A3: تحبّب الجَلِيدُ كَاللُّؤْلُؤِ الصِّغَارِ [The hoar-frost formed into grains like small pearls]. (TA in art. صأب.) b2: تحبّب الرِّيقُ عَلَى الأَسْنَانِ [The saliva formed, or collected, in little bubbles upon the teeth].

(S in art. بحثر.) b4: تحبّب الزُّبْدُ [The butter formed into little clots, when first appearing in the milk or cream]. (S and K in art. ثمر.) The verb is also used in like manner in relation to honey, (K in art. حثر,) and دِبْس (S in that art.,) and medicine. (TA in that art. [See also 2.]) b5: تحبّب الجِلْدُ [The skin broke cat with pimples, or small pustules: so in the language of the present day: see حَبٌّ]. (TA in art. حثر.) 6 تحابّوا They loved, or affected, or liked, one another. (S, A, * K. *) 10 إِسْتَحْبَ3َ see 4.

A2: اِسْتَحَبَّتْ كَرِشُ المَالِ The stomachs of the cattle, or camels &c., retained the water [that they had drunk], and the time between the two waterings thereof became long, or became lengthened. (K.) This is at the conjunction of [the periods of] الطَّرْف and الجَبْهَة [the ninth and tenth of the Mansions of the Moon, which, in central Arabia, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, took place on the 12th of August, O. S., (see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل,)] when Canopus rises with them. (TA. [الصَّرْفَة is there put for الطَّرْف; but evidently by a mistake of a copyist. There is also another mistake, though a small one, in the foregoing passage: for Canopus rises, in central Arabia, after الطرف, and before الجبهة; and rose aurorally, in that latitude, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, on the 4th of August, O. S.]) حَبْ and حَبٍ A cry by which a he-camel is chidden, to urge him on. (TA voce حَوْبِ, q. v.) حَبٌّ, (S, Msb, K,) a [coll.] gen. n., (Msb,) n. un. حَبَّةٌ; (S, Msb, K;) Grain of wheat, barley, lentils, rice, &c.: (Az, TA:) accord. to Ks, only of wheat and barley: (TA:) or wheat &c. while in the ears or other envelopes: (Msb:) [but applied also to various other seeds; among which, to beans, (as in the Mgh in art. بقل,) and peas and the like; and kernels; and] the stones of grapes, dates, pomegranates, and the like: (Mgh voce عجَمٌ:) by some it is applied even [to berries; as, for instance,] to grapes: you say حَبَّةٌ مِنْ عِنَبٍ, as well as مِنَ البُرِّ, and مِنَ الشَّعِيرِ, and the like: (TA:) [and hence, to beads: (see حِبٌّ:)] the pl. (of حَبٌّ, Msb) is حُبُوبٌ (S, Msb, K) and حُبَّانٌ, like تُمْرَانٌ, (K,) pl. of تَمْرٌ; (TA;) and (of حَبَّةٌ, Msb) حَبَّاتٌ (Msb, K) and حِبَابٌ, [or this is pl. of حَبٌّ also,] like كِلَابٌ as pl. of كَلْبَةٌ [and of كَلْبٌ]: (Msb:) and حَبٌّ is also called [by lexicologists, but not by grammarians,] a pl. of حَبَّةٌ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] Seed-produce, whether small or large. (TA.) b3: And الحَبَّةُ الخَضْرَآءُ (S, K) i. q. البُطْمُ [The fruit of the terebinth-tree, or pistacia terebinthus of Linn. (Delile, Flor. Æg. no. 936.)] (K.) b4: And الحَبَّةُ السَّوْدَآءُ (S, K) i. q. الشُّونِيزُ [The black aromatic seed of a species of nigella]. (K.) [But see art. سود.

And for other similar terms, see the latter word of each.] b5: And حَبَّ الغَمَامِ and حَبُّ المُزْنِ and حَبُّ قُرٍّ Hail. (S. [See a metaphorical usage of the first of these in a verse cited voce أَنَّ.]) b6: [Hence likewise,] حَبٌّ also signifies Pimples, or small pustules: [so in the present day: and any similar small extuberances: a coll. gen. n.: n. un. with ة.] (S and K * in art. حثر.) حُبٌّ Love; affection; syn. وُدٌّ, (A,) or وِدَادٌ; (K;) inclination of the nature, or natural disposition, towards a thing that pleases, or delights; (Kull p. 165;) contr. of بُغْضٌ: (Mgh, TA:) حُبٌّ and ↓ حِبٌّ and ↓ حُبَّةٌ [this being said in the S to be syn. with حُبٌّ and in the K to be syn. with مَحَبَّةٌ, and it is used as an inf. n. in an ex. cited voce دَاحٌ in art. دوح,] and ↓ حُبَابٌ (S, K) and ↓ حِبَابٌ (K) and ↓ مَحَبَّةٌ (S) signify the same; (S, K;) i. e., as above. (K.) The degrees of حُبّ are as follow: first, هَوًى, the “ inclining of the soul, or mind; ” also applied to the “ object of love itself: ” then, عَلَاقَةٌ, “love cleaving to the heart; ” so termed because of the heart's cleaving to the object of love: then, كَلَفٌ, “violent, or intense, love; ” from كُلْفَةٌ signifying “ difficulty, or distress, or affliction: ” then, عِشْقٌ, [“ amorous desire; ” or “ passionate love; ”] in the S, “excess of love; ” and in the language of the physicians, “ a kind of melancholy: ” then, شَغَفٌ, “ardour of love, accompanied by a sensation of pleasure; ”

like لَوْعَةٌ and لَاعِجٌ; the former of which is “ ardour of love; ” and the latter, “ardent love: ”

then, جَوًى, “inward love; ” and “ violence of amorous desire,” or “ of grief, or sorrow: ” then, تَتَيُّمٌ, “a state of enslavement by love: ” then تَبْلٌ, “lovesickness: ” then, وَلَهٌ, “distraction, or loss of reason, in love: ” and then, هُيَامٌ “ a state of wandering about at random in consequence of overpowering love. ” (Kull ubi suprà.) [Accord. to the Msb, it is a simple subst.: but accord. to the K, an inf. n.; and hence,] حُبًّا لِمَا أَحْبَبْتُمْ, meaning أُحِبُّ حُبًّا [I love with loving, i. e. much, what ye have loved]. (Har p. 186.) Hence the phrase, وَكَرَامَةً ↓ نَعَمْ وَحُبَّةً [Yea; and with love and honour will I do what thou requirest: or for the sake of the love and honour that I bear thee: or حبّة may be here used for حُبًّا to assimilate it in termination to كرامة: see what follows]. (S, TA.) Hence also the saying of Abu-l-' Atà EsSindee, فَوَاللّٰهِ مَا أَدْرِى وَإِنِّى لَصَادِقٌ

أَدَآءٌ عَرَانِى مِنْ حُبَابِكِ أَمْ سِحْرُ [And by God, I know not (and indeed I am speaking truth) whether disease have befallen me in consequence of love of thee, or enchantment]: (S, TA:) but IB says that the reading best known is ↓ مِنْ حِبَابِكِ; and that حِباب, here, may be an inf. n. of حَابَبْتُهُ; or it may be pl. of حُبٌّ, like as عِشاشٌ is of عُشٌّ; (TA;) or it may be an inf. n. of حَبَبْتُهُ: some also read ↓ مِنْ حَبَابِكِ, with fet-h to the ح, said to mean on account of the love of thee, and of the main amount thereof: (Ham p. 26:) and some read مِنْ جَنَابِكِ “ from thy part ” [or “ from thee ”]. (TA.) b2: See also حَبِيبٌ.

A2: Also a Persian word, arabicized, (AHát, S, Msb,) from خُنْب, (AHát, TA,) [or خُبْ or خُپْ,] i. q. خَابِيَةٌ, (S, Msb,) A jar, (K, MF,) whether large or small, used for preparing wine: (MF:) or a large jar: (K:) or one for water: (IDrd, TA:) or the four pieces of wood upon which is placed a two-handled, or two-eared, jar: (K, TA: [in the CK, by a misplacement of words, this last signification is assigned to حَبَاب:]) pl. [of pauc.] أَحْبَابٌ (K) and [of mult.]

حِبَابٌ and حِبَبَةٌ. (S, Msb, K.) From this last signification is [said to be] derived the phrase حُبًّا وَكَرَامَةً [pronounced حُبًّا وَكَرَامَهْ, lit. A jarstand and a cover will I give thee, or the like], كرامة signifying the “ cover ” of a jar, (K, TA,) whether of wood or of baked clay. (TA.) [If this be the true derivation, the phrase may have originated from a person's asking of another the loan or gift of a jar, and the latter's replying

“ Yea; and I will give thee a jar-stand and a cover; ” meaning “ I will do what thou requirest, and more: ” but this phrase is now, and perhaps was in early times, generally used, agreeably with the more common significations of the two words, in the sense assigned above to the phrase حُبَّةً

وَكَرَامَةً.]

حِبٌّ: see حُبٌّ: b2: and حَبِيبٌ, in four places: A2: and حِبَّةٌ.

A3: Also, and ↓ حِبَابٌ, [but the latter is doubted by the author of the TA, and thought to be perhaps syn. with حِبٌّ in the sense of مُحِبٌّ, and in the L it is said to be syn. with حبٌّ, but in what sense is not explained,] An ear-ring [formed] of one حَبَّة [or bead]. (K.) حَبَّةٌ n. un. of حَبٌّ [q. v.]. (S, Msb, K.) [Hence,] جَابِرُ بْنُ حَبَّةَ a name of (assumed tropical:) Bread.

You say اِمْرَأَةٌ لِزَوْجِهَا ↓ مُحِبَّةٌ and ↓ مُحِبٌّ [A woman loving to her husband]. (Fr, S, K. *) b3: أَبُو حَبِيبٍ The kid. (Har p. 227.) b4: الحَبِيبَةُ: see مُحَبٌّ.

حُبَاحِبٌ, (K,) or أَبُو حُبَاحِبٍ, (S,) [A kind of fire-fly;] a fly that flies in the night, (K,) resembling fire, (S,) emitting rays like a lamp: (K:) AHn says that حباحب and ابوحباحب were both unknown to him, and that nothing respecting them had been heard by him from the Arabs; but that some people asserted the insect thus called to be the يَرَاع, a moth that, when it flies by night, no person not knowing it would doubt to be a spark of fire: Aboo-Tálib says, as on the authority of Arabs of the desert, that حباحب is the name of a flying thing longer than the common fly, and slender, that flies between sunset and nightfall, resembling a spark of fire: (TA:) or, accord. to As, it is a flying thing, like the common fly, with a wing that becomes red; when it flies appearing at a distance like a lighted piece of fire-wood. (Har p. 500.) نَارُ الحُبَاحِبِ (S, K) and نَارُأَبِى حُبَاحِبٍ and simply الحُبَاحِبُ (S) mean The fire of the fly above mentioned: or of El-Hobáhib or Aboo-Hobáhib: (TA:) [for] El-Hobáhib, (S,) or Aboo-Hobáhib, (K,) is said to have been a niggardly man, who never lighted any but a faint fire, fearing to attract guests, so that his fire became proverbial. (S, K.) El-Kumeyt says, describing swords, يَرَى الرَّاؤُونَ بِالشَّفَرَاتِ مِنْهَا كَنَارِ أَبِى حُبَاحِبَ وَالظُّبِينَا [The beholders see, in the sides of the blades thereof, and the extremities, the semblance of the fire of the fire-fly]: (S:) here the poet has made حباحب imperfectly decl., regarding it as a fem. [proper] name [of the fly above mentioned]. (TA.) Or نارالحباحب (S, K) and simply الحباحب (S) signify The fire that is struck by a horse's hoofs: (Fr, S:) or the sparks of fire that are made to fly forth in the air by the collision of stones: or the sparks that fall from the pieces of wood that are used for producing fire [by means of friction]: (K:) or they are derived from حَبْحَبَةٌ, (IAar, K,) signifying “ weakness,” (IAar, TA,) [and their meaning is faint fire.] b2: أُمُّ حُبَاحِبٍ

A flying insect resembling the [species of locust called] جُنْدَب, (K, * TA,) spotted with yellow and green: when people see it, they say, بَرِّدِى

يَا حُبَاحِبُ [Spread forth thy wings (بُرْدَيْكِ), hobáhib]; whereupon it spreads its two wings, which are adorned with red and yellow. (TA.) حَبَّذَا, meaning حَبِيبٌ, as in the phrase حَبَّذَا الأَمْرُ [Loved, beloved, affected, loved, or approved, is the thing, or affair; or lovely, charming, or excellent, is it]; (K;) and in حَبَّذَا زَيْدٌ [Loved, beloved, &c., is Zeyd]; (S;) is composed of حَبَّ, (Sb, Fr, S, K,) a verb of praise, in the pret. form, invariable, originally حَبُبَ, (Fr, S,) and ذَا, (Sb, Fr, S, K,) its agent, (S,) which together constitute it a single word, (Sb, S, K,) a noun, (Sb, K,) or occupying the place of a noun, (S,) governing the noun [particularized by praise] that follows it in the nom. case; (Sb, S, K;) the place that it occupies in construction making it virtually in the nom. case as an inchoative, and the noun that follows it being its enunciative: (S:) [but see what follows.] It is used in the same manner as a prov.; (Sb, K;) [i. e., it is not altered to agree in number or gender with the noun particularized by praise, which follows it;] remaining the same when used in the dual and pl. and fem. sense; so that one says, حبّذا زَيْدٌ and الزَّيْدَانِ and الزَّيْدُونَ and هِنْدٌ and أَنْتَ and أَنْتُمَا and أَنْتُمْ [&c.]; (Ibn-Keysán, TA;) and حبّذا امْرَأَةٌ, not حَبَّذِهِ المَرْأَةُ; (Sb, S, K; *) which shows that the noun that follows it may not be regarded as a substitute for ذا: (S:) [but see what follows.] It is allowable, but bad, to say, زَيْدٌ حَبَّذَا. (TA.) [There are, however, various opinions respecting حبّذا and the noun that follows it.] Some hold that حبّذا is a noun, composed of حَبَّ and ذا, and is an inchoative, and that the noun particularized by praise is its enunciative; or that the former is an enunciative, and the latter an inchoative, reversing the usual order: others hold that حَبَّ is a verb in the pret. form; and ذا, its agent; and that the noun particularized by praise may be an inchoative, of which حبّذا is the enunciative; or it may be an enunciative of which the inchoative is suppressed, so that حبّذا زَيْدٌ is for حبّذا هُوَ زَيْدٌ [Loved, or beloved, &c., is this person: he is Zeyd], or حبّذا المَمْدُوحُ زَيْدٌ [loved, &c., is this person: the person praised is Zeyd]: others hold that حبّذا is a pret. verb, composed of حَبَّ and ذا, and that the noun following it is its agent; but this is the weakest of opinions: one also says, in dispraise, لَاحَبَّذَا زَيْدٌ. (I 'Ak p. 235.) حَابٌّ An arrow that falls [in the space] around the butt: pl. حَوَابُّ. (K.) أَحَبُّ [More, and most, loved, beloved, &c. You say, هٰذَا أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ ذَاكَ This is more an object of love, affection, liking, or approval, or is more lovely, charming, or pleasing, to me than that. And هُوَ أَحَبُّهُمْ إِلَىَّ He is the most beloved of them to me.]

مُحَبٌّ: see حَبِيبٌ, in three places. b2: المُحَبَّةُ and ↓ المَحْبُوبَةُ and ↓ المُحَبَّبَةُ and ↓ الحَبِيبَةُ are epithets of El-Medeeneh. (K.) مُحِبٌّ, and its fem.: see حَبِيبٌ, in three places.

(TA.) And جُنَّ عَنْهُ meansIt (anything) was veiled, concealed, or hidden, from him. (K.) b2: He concealed it; namely, a dead body; as also ↓ اجنّهُ: (S, TA:) or the latter, he wrapped it in grave-clothing: (K:) and he buried it. (TA.)

A2: جَنَّ, aor. ـِ inf. n. جِنٌّ, It (an embryo, or a fœtus,) was concealed in the womb. (K.) b2: Also, [inf. n., probably, جِنٌّ and جُنُونٌ and جَنَانٌ, explained below,] It (the night) was, or became, dark. (Golius on the authority of Ibn-Maaroof.)

(S, Msb, K.) [and so, vulgarly, ↓ جنّنهُ, whoever, or whatever, be the agent.] b2: ما اجنّهُ [How mad, or insane, &c., is he!] is anomalous, (Th, S,) being formed from a verb of the pass. form, namely, جُنَّ; (Th, TA;) for of the مَضْرُوب one should not say, مَا أَضْرَبَهُ; nor of the مَسْلُول should one say, مَا أَسَلَّهُ: (S:) Sb says that the verb of wonder is used in this case because it denotes want of intellect [which admits of degrees].

A2: [The genii; and sometimes the angels;] accord. to some, the spiritual beings that are concealed from the senses, or that conceal themselves from the senses; all of such beings; (Er-Rághib, TA;) the opposite of إِنْسٌ; (S, Mgh, Msb, Er-Rághib, TA;) thus comprising the angels; all of these being جِنّ; (Er-Rághib, TA;) thus called because they are feared but not seen: (S:) or, accord. to others, certain of the spiritual beings; for the spiritual beings are of three kinds; the good being the angels; and the evil being the devils (شَيَاطِين); and the middle kind, among whom are good and evil, being the جِنّ; as is shown by the first twelve verses of ch. lxxii. of the Kur: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or it here means intelligent invisible bodies, predominantly of the fiery, or of the aerial, quality: or a species of souls, or spirits, divested of bodies: or human souls separate from their bodies: (Bd:) or the جِنّ are the angels [exclusively]; (K;) these being so called in the Time of Ignorance, because they were concealed, or because they concealed themselves, from the eyes: so, accord. to some, in the Kur [xviii. 48], where it is said that Iblees was of the جِنّ: and so, as some say, in the Kur [vi. 100], where it is said that they called the جِنّ partners of God: (TA:) but some reject the explanation in the K, because the angels were created of light, and the جِنّ of fire; and the former do not propagate their kind, nor are they to be described as males and females; contrary to the case of the جِنّ; wherefore it is generally said that in the phrase [in the Kur xviii. 48, above mentioned] إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ كَانَ مِنَ الجِنِّ, what is excepted is disunited in kind from that from which the exception is made, or that Iblees had adopted the dispositions of the جِنّ: (MF, TA:) or, as some say, the جِنّ were a species of the angels, who were the guardians of the earth and of the gardens of Paradise: (TA:) ↓ جِنَّةٌ, also, signifies the same as جِنٌّ: (S, Msb, K:) so in the last verse of the Kur: (S:) in the Kur xxxvii. 158 meaning the angels, whom certain of the Arabs worshipped; (TA;) and whom they called the daughters of God: (Fr, TA:) a single individual of the جِنّ is called ↓ جِنِّىٌّ, [fem. with ة:] (S, TA:) and ↓ جَانٌّ, also, is syn. with جِنٌّ: (Msb:) or الجَانٌ means the father of the جِنّ; (S, Mgh, TA;) [i. e. any father of جِنّ; for] the pl. is جِنَّانٌ, like حِيطَانٌ pl. of حَائِطٌ: (S, TA:) so says El-Hasan: it is said in the T, on the authority of AA, that the جانّ is, or are, of the جِنّ: (TA:) or جَانٌّ is a quasi-pl. n. of جِنٌّ; (M, K;) like جَامِلٌ and بَاقِرٌ: (M, TA:) so in the Kur lv. 56 and 74: in reading the passage in the Kur lv. 39, 'Amr Ibn-'Obeyd pronounced it جَأَنٌ: (TA:) it is related that there were certain creatures called the جَانّ, who were upon the earth, and who acted corruptly therein, and shed blood, wherefore God sent angels who banished them from the earth; and it is said that these angels became the inhabitants of the earth after them. (Zj, TA.) بَاتَ فُلَانٌ ضَيْفَ جِنٍّ

[Such a one passed the night a guest of جنّ] means, in a desolate place, in which was no one that might cheer him by his society or converse. (TA.) The saying of Moosà Ibn-Jábir, فَمَا نَفَرَتْ جِنِّى وَلَا فُلَّ مِبْرَدِى

may mean And my companions, who were like the جِنّ, did not flee when I came to them and informed them, nor was my tongue, that is like the file, deprived of its sharp edge: or by his جنّ he means his familiar جنّ, such as were asserted to aid poets when difficulties befell them; and by his مبرد, his tongue: (Ham p. 182 [where other explanations are proposed; but they are far-fetched]:) or by his جنّ he means his heart; and by his مبرد, his tongue. (S.) The Arabs liken a man who is sharp and effective in affairs to a جِنِّىّ and a شَيْطَان: and hence they said, نَفَرَتْ جِنُّهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) He became weak and abject. (Ham ubi suprà.) b2: The greater, main, or chief, part, or the main body, or bulk, of men, or of mankind; as also ↓ جَنَانٌ; (K;) because he who enters among them becomes concealed by them: (TA:) or the latter means the general assemblage, or collective body, of men: (IAar, S, * TA:) or what veils, conceals, covers, or protects, one, of a thing. (AA, TA.) b3: (tropical:) The flowers, or blossoms, of plants or herbage. (K, TA.) b4: (tropical:) The prime, or first part, of youth: (S, K, TA:) or the sharpness, or vigorousness, and briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, thereof. (TA.) Yousay, كَانَ ذٰلِك فِى جِنِّ شَبَابِهِ (tropical:) That was in the prime, or first part, of his youth. (S, TA.) and أَفْعَلُ ذٰلِكَ الأَمْرَ بِجِنِّ ذٰلِكَ (tropical:) I will do that thing in the time of the first and fresh state of that. (S, TA.) جِنٌّ may also signify (assumed tropical:) The madness, or insanity, of exultation, or of excessive exultation. (TA.) And one says, اِتّقِ النّاقَةَ فَإِنّهَا بِجِنِّ ضِرَامِهَا, meaning (assumed tropical:) Fear thou the she-camel, for she is in her evil temper on the occasion of her bringing forth. (TA.) b5: Also i. q. جدّ [app. جِدٌّ, as meaning (assumed tropical:) Seriousness, or earnestness]; because it is a thing that is an accompaniment of thought, or reflection, and is concealed by the heart. (TA.) جَنَّةٌ A [garden, such as is called] بُسْتَان: (S, Mgh:) or a garden, or walled garden, (حَدِيقَة, Msb, K,) of trees, or of palm-trees, (Msb,) or of palms and other trees: (K:) or only if containing palm-trees and grape-vines; otherwise, if containing trees, called حديقة: (Aboo-'Alee in the Tedhkireh, TA:) or any بستان having trees by which the ground is concealed: and sometimes concealing trees: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and palm-trees: (S:) or tall palm-trees: (Mgh:) or shadowing trees; because of the tangling, or luxuriousness of their branches; as though concealing at once what is beneath them: then a بستان; because of its dense and shadowing trees: (Bd in ii. 23:) or a بستان of palms and other trees, dense, and shadowing by the tangling, or luxuriousness, and denseness, of their branches; as though it were originally the inf. n. of un. of جَنَّهُ, and meaning “ a single act of veiling ” or “ concealing ” &c.: (Ksh ib.:) then, with the article ال, [Paradise,] the abode of recompense; because of the جِنَان therein; (Ksh and Bd ib.;) or because the various delights prepared therein for mankind are concealed in the present state of existence: (Bd ib.:) [and] hence الجَنَّاتُ [the gardens of Paradise], (so in a copy of the S,) or جَنَّاتُ عَدْنٍ [the gardens of continual abode]: (so in another copy of the S:) [for] the pl. of جَنَّةٌ is أَجِنَّةٌ (Mgh, Msb, K) and جِنَيْنَة (Msb, TA) and جُنَّةٌ, but this last is strange. (MF, TA.) [Dim. ↓ جُنَيْنَةٌ, vulgarly pronounced جِنَيْنَة, and applied to A garden; as though it were a little Paradise.]

جُنَّةٌ A thing by which a person is veiled, concealed, hidden, covered, or protected: an arm, or armour, with which one protects himself: (S:) anything protective: (K:) or coats of mail, and any defensive, or protective, arm or armour: (TA:) pl. جُنَنٌ.

(K.) جِنَّةٌ: see its syn. جِنٌّ: A2: and جُنُونٌ.

A2: A dead body; (S, K;) because concealed in the grave; the word being of the measure فَعَلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, like نَفَضٌ in the sense of مَنْفُوضٌ. (TA.) جَنُنٌ: see جُنُونٌ.

جَنَانٌ: see جِنٌّ, first sentence, in two places: A2: and see the same in the latter part of the paragraph. b2: Also A garment: (K:) or a garment that conceals one; as in the saying, مَا عَلَىَّ جَنَانٌ إِلَّا مَا تَرَى [There is not upon me a garment that conceals me save what thou seest].

[Her husband had become altered for the worse, or stinking, having died, in a well which he had descended]: from the saying in the Kur مِنْ حَمَأ

مَسْنُونٍ: [see مَسْنُونٌ:] but some say that he [who used this phrase] meant [to say, or meant thereby,] أَسِنَ, i. e. his head became affected with vertigo by reason of a foul odour that he smelt, and he swooned. (L.) 2 سنّنهُ: see 1, near the beginning. b2: [Hence,] سنّن المَنْطِقَ (assumed tropical:) He made the speech good, or beautiful; (M, L, K;) as though he polished it.

(Mgh, L.)

(Mgh, L.) And البَدَنَةُ ↓ سُنَّتِ, a phrase mentioned by KT, as meaning The teeth of the بدنة grew forth, is also a mistake [for أَسَنَّت]. (L.) b2: You say also, اسنّ سَدِيسُ النَّاقَةِ The [tooth called] سديس of the she-camel grew forth, i. e. in the eighth year. (S, L.) A2: Also, said of God, He made a tooth to grow forth. (S, L, K.) اللّٰهُ ↓ سَنَّهَا, [referring to the teeth of a بَدَنَة,] a phrase mentioned by KT, is a mistake [for أَسَنَّهَا]. (L.) b2: See also 1, in the former half of the paragraph, in two places.5 تسنّن بِهِ [He took him, or it, as an exemplar, example, or object to be imitated].

(Az, L.) b3: Said of the سَرَاب [or mirage], It was, or became, in a state of commotion, went to and fro, or quivered. (M, L, K.) b4: Said of a horse, i. q. قَمَصَ [app. as meaning He pranced, leaped, sprang, or bounded]: (S, K:) he frisked; or was brisk, lively, or sprightly: he ran, in his friskiness, briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, in one direction: he ran, by reason of his friskiness, briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, a heat, or two heats, without a rider upon him: (L:) he ran to and fro, by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness: from سَنَّ as signifying “ he poured forth ” water, and as signifying “ he sharpened ”

iron upon a whetstone. (Har p. 47.) It is said in a prov., اِسْتَنَّتِ الفِصَالُ حَتَّى القَرْعَى, (S, Meyd, L,) or الفُصْلَانُ, (Meyd,) i. e. The young weaned camels leaped, sprang, or bounded; (S * L;) even those affected with the small pustules called قَرَع; (Meyd, L;) which are small white pustules, the remedy for which is salt, and the butter (جُبَاب) of camels' milk: (Meyd:) when the healthy young weaned camels do thus, those affected with such pustules do the like in imitation, but become disabled from doing it by weakness: the prov. is applied to the man who introduces himself among a people, or party, to whom he does not belong: (L:) or to him who speaks with one before whom he should not speak by reason of the greatness of his rank: and some related it differently, saying, القُرَيْعَى [which is the dim. of القَرْعَى]; (Meyd;) and القُرْعُ [which is pl. of الأَقْرَعُ, q. v.]: and some say that استنّت الفِصَالُ signifies the young weaned camels became fat, or plump, and their skins became [sleek] like مَسَانّ [or whetstones]. (L.) And it is said in a trad. of 'Omar, رَأَيْتُ

أَبَاهُ يَسْتَنُّ بِسَيْفِهِ كَمَا يَسْتَنُّ الجَمَلُ, meaning [I saw his father] exulting with briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness, and brandishing his sword, [like as the camel exults with briskness, and lashes with his tail.] (L.) See also 5. b5: [Also He took, held, or followed, the سَنَن, i. e., road, or way, or main and middle part thereof: and he, or it, was, or lay, in the way. Hence,] one says, خُذْ مَا اسْتَنَّ, meaning [Take thou what lies in the way;] what is easily attainable; what offers itself without difficulty. (AA, TA voce اِنْتَدَبَ.) b6: See also 1, near the end of the paragragh, in two places.10 إِسْتَسْنَ3َ see 4: A2: and see also 1, near the end of the paragraph, in two places. b2: اِسْتَسَنَّتِ الطَّرِيقُ The road was travelled. (K.) R. Q. 1 سَنْسَنَتِ الرِّيحُ The wind blew coldly, or coolly; as also نَسْنَسَت: so in the Nawádir. (L.) سِنٌّ i. q. ضِرْسٌ [as meaning A tooth; in which sense this latter word is often used; though it is frequently restricted to a molar tooth, or to any of the teeth except the central incisors]: (M, L, K:) [or, accord. to some, a single tooth; i. e. one that is not of the double, or molar, kind; as shown by a description in what follows:] of the fem. gender: (S, M, L, Msb:) pl. أَسْنَانٌ (S, M, L, Msb, K) and أَسِنَّةٌ and أَسُنٌّ, (M, L, K,) the last of these mentioned by Lh, and this and the second anomalous; (M, L;) or the second is allowable as pl. of the first of these pls.; (S;) or it is pl. of the سِنَان of the spear; but may also be pl. of أَسْنَانٌ as pl. of سِنٌّ applied to herbage upon which camels pasture, in an instance to be cited in what follows: (A'Obeyd, T, L:) the vulgar say إِسْنَان and أُسْنَان, which are wrong: (Msb:) the أَسْنَان of a human being consist of four ثَنَايَا, and four رَبَاعِيَات, and four أَنْيَاب, and four نَوَاجِذ, and sixteen أَضْرَاس: or, as some say, four ثنايا, and four رباعيات, and four انياب, and four نواجذ, and four ضَوَاحِك, and twelve أَرْحَآء: (Msb:) or the أَسْنَان and أَضْرَاس together make up the number of thirty-two; the ثنابا are four, two above and two below [in the middle]; next are the رباعيات, which are four, two above and two below; next are the انياب, which are four [likewise, two above and two below]; and next are the اضراس, which are twenty, on each side five above and five below; and of these [last] the four that are next to the انياب are the ضواحك; next to each ناب, above and below, is a ضَاحِك; next to the ضواحك are the طَوَاحِن, also called the أَرْحَآء, which are twelve, on each side [above and below] three; and next to these are the نواجذ, which are the last of the teeth in growth, and the last of the اضراس, on each side of the mouth one above and one below: (Zj in his “ Khalk el-Insán: ”) the dim. of سِنٌّ is ↓ سُنَيْنَةٌ, because it is fem. (S.) One says, لَا آتِيكَ سِنَّ الحِسْلِ, (S, M, L,) i. e. I will not come to thee as long as remains the tooth of the young one of the [kind of lizard called]

ضَبّ; (M, L;) meaning, ever; (S, M, * L;) because the حسل never sheds a tooth: (S, L:) or, as Lh relates it, on the authority of ElMufaddal, سِنَّىْ حِسْلٍ; [using the dual form of سِنٌّ;] and [it may be rendered, accord. to the former reading, (assumed tropical:) during the life of the young one of the ضّب, for] he says, they assert that the ضبّ lives three hundred years, and that it is the longest-lived creeping thing upon the earth. (M, L.) A poet (Aboo-Jarwal El-Jushamee, whose name was Hind, L) says, describing camels taken as a bloodwit, فَجَآءَتْ كَسِنِّ الظَّبْىِ لَمْ أَرَ مِثْلَهَا بَوَآءَ قَتِيلٍ أَوْ حَلُوبَةَ جَائِعِ [And they came; (assumed tropical:) like the age of the gazelle was the age of every one of them: I have not seen the like of them for an equivalent of a slain person, or a milch camel of one hungry: (I have given a reading of this verse that I have found in the M and TA in art. ظبى, instead of that in the present art. in the S and L, in which سنآءَ and سَنَآءَ are put in the place of بَوَآءَ app. for سِنَآءَ, an inf. n. of سَانَاهُ, and as such here meaning a soothing, or the like:)] he means that they were ثُنْيَان, [pl. of ثَنِىٌّ], because the ثَنِىّ is one shedding [or that has shed] his ثَنِيَّة, and the gazelle has no ثَنِيَّة [in the upper jaw], so that he is always [one that may be termed] a ثَنِىّ. (S, L.) It is said in a trad., إِذَا سَافَرْتُمْ فِى الخِصْبِ فَأَعْطُوا الرُّكُبَ

أَسِنَّتَهَا, [expl. as] meaning When ye journey in the land abounding with herbage, enable ye the ridden beasts to take of the pasturage: (S, L:) but Az states that A'Obeyd says, I know not أَسِنَّة except as pl. of the سِنَان of the spear; and if the trad. be [correctly] preserved in memory, it seems to be pl. of أَسْنَان; for سِنٌّ [sometimes] signifies the [portion of] herbage upon which camels pasture; and its pl. is أَسْنَانٌ; one says, أَسْنَانٌ مِنَ المَرْعَى; and the pl. of أَسْنَانٌ is أَسِنَّةٌ: Aboo-Sa'eed says that this last is pl. of سِنَانٌ, not of أَسْنَانٌ, and ↓ سِنَانٌ is applied to the [plants, or trees, called] حَمْض, as meaning (assumed tropical:) a strengthener [i. e. a sharpener of the appetite] of the camels for the [plants, or trees, called] خُلَّة: [see a phrase in the earlier part of the first paragraph:] in like manner, also, [he says,] when they light upon what is termed سِنٌّ مِنَ المَرْعَى [a portion of pasturage], this is termed عَلَى السَّيْرِ ↓ سِنَانٌ [a strengthener, or sharpener, for journeying]: this explanation is approved by Az, and likewise that of A'Obeyd: it is also related, on the authority of Fr, that السِّنُّ signifies the eating vehemently: [a signification mentioned in the K as well as in the L:] and Az says, I have heard more than one of the Arabs say, أَصَابَتِ الإِبِلُ اليَوْمَ سِنًّا مِنَ المَرْعَى

[The camels have obtained to-day a good portion of pasturage] when they have eaten well of the best of the pasturage: Z says that ↓ أَعْطُوا الرُّكُبَ أَسِنَّتَهَا means (assumed tropical:) Give ye to the ridden beasts what will prevent their being slaughtered; for when their owner pastures them well, they become fat, and goodly in his eye, and therefore he withholds himself, with niggardliness, from slaughtering them, and this [condition of them] is likened to أَسِنَّة [as meaning “ spear-heads ”] pl. of سِنَانٌ: [see also أَخَذَتْ رِمَاحَهَا, said of camels, voce رُمْحٌ:] or if the pl. of سِنٌّ be intended by it, the meaning is, enable ye them [i. e. the ridden beasts] to take of the pasturage; and hence the trad., أَعْطُوا السِّنَّ حَظَّهَا مِنَ السِّنِّ, i. e. Give ye the possessors of the سِنّ [meaning tooth] their share of the سِنّ which is the pasture. (L.) السِّنُّ is also used for ذَوَاتُ السِّنِّ [The possessors of the tooth] as meaning the slave and horses and the like and other animals, [collectively, in like manner as خُفٌّ and حَافِرٌ are used,] in a trad. of 'Omar. (L.) And it is said in a trad. of Ibn-Dhee-Yezen, لَأُوطِئَنَّ أَسْنَانَ العَرَبِ كَعْبَهُ, for ذَوِى أَسْنَانِ العَرَبِ, meaning [I will assuredly make] the great men and the nobles [of the Arabs to tread upon his ankle]. (L.) [But اسنان in this instance may be pl. of سِنٌّ in the sense here next following; so that ذوى اسنان may be rendered the advanced in age.]) b2: Hence, (L,) (tropical:) Life; (S, M, L, Msb;) metaphorically used in this sense as indicative of its length and its shortness; (L;) [for the teeth vary with the length of life;] the measure, (K,) or extent, of life; (Msb, K;) [the age attained;] used in relation to human beings and others: (M, L, K:) of the fem. gender in this sense also, (M, L, Msb,) because meaning مُدَّةٌ: (Msb:) pl. أَسْنَانٌ, (M, L, K,) only. (M, L.) You say رَجُلٌ حَدِيثُ السِّنِّ, meaning (assumed tropical:) A young man. (S, Msb, K, all in art. حدث.) And جَاوَزْتُ أَسْنَانَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِى (assumed tropical:) [I have exceeded] the lives of the people of my house. (L.) And صَدَقَنِى سِنَّ بَكْرِهِ [and سِنُّ بَكْرِهِ, expl. in art. بكر]. (L.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) A like, an equal, or a match, in age, of another; (M, L, K;) like تِنٌّ; (M, L;) as also ↓ سَنِينٌ, (M, L, K,) and ↓ سِنِينٌ, (L,) or ↓ سَنينَةٌ: (M, K:) in this sense also fem.; and [therefore] the dim. is ↓ سُنَيْنَةٌ; (L;) one says, اِبْنِى سُنَيْنَةُ ابْنِكَ [My son is the equal in age of thy son]: (El-Kanánee, L:) and the pl. is أَسُنٌّ and أَسْنَانٌ. (L.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) A tooth of a مِنْجَل [or reaping-hook]: (M, L, K: *) pl. أَسْنَانٌ, signifying its أُشُر.

(Har p. 39.) b6: and (assumed tropical:) The nib, i. e. the place of paring, of a writingreed: (S, L, K:) [and each lateral half of that part; for] the writing-reed has a right سِنّ and a left سِنّ: (TA in art. حرف:) [and ↓ سِنَّةٌ occurs in the K voce جِلْفَةٌ as meaning the point of a writing-reed.] One says, أَطِلْ سِنَّ قَلَمِكَ وَسَمِّنْهَا وَحَرِّفْ قِطَّتَكَ وَأَيْمِنْهَا [Make long the nib, or pared portion, of thy writing-reed, and make it thick (lit. fat), and make thy mode of cutting the extremity of the nib oblique, and make it to incline towards the right]. (S, L. *) b7: A tooth [or pin] of a key [app. of the kind of wooden lock called ضَبَّة, q. v.]. (MA.) b8: See also سِنْسِنٌ. b9: Also, (M, K, and A and K in art. فص,) or ↓ سِنَّةٌ, (S, JM,) A clove, (فَصٌّ, S and A as syn. with سِنٌّ in art. فص, and JM in explanation of سِنَّةٌ in the present art., or فَصَّةٌ, S and L in explanation of سِنَّةٌ,) or a حَبَّة [app. here meaning small distinct portion] of the head [app. here meaning bulb], (M and L and K in explanation of سِنٌّ,) of garlic. (S, M, A, L, K, JM.) A2: [Accord. to some,] one says, وَقَعَ فُلَانٌ فِى سِنِّ رَأْسِهِ, meaning Such a one fell into [what equalled] the number of his hairs, of good, (M, * L, K, *) and of evil: (L:) or, as some say, into what he willed, or wished, and had authority to decide: (L, K:) but this is a mistranscription: (Meyd:) the correct saying is فِى سِىِّ رَأْسِهِ, (Az, Meyd, L,) and سَوَآءِ رَأْسِهِ, meaning he fell into a state of enjoyment, or welfare; (Meyd;) the former sometimes expl. as meaning, [he lighted upon, or came upon, what equalled] the number of the hairs of his head, of wealth, or good: (A'Obeyd, Meyd:) or what equalled [the hairs of] his head, of abundance of herbage, or of the goods, conveniences, or comforts, of life: (Az, L, and Meyd * on the authority of IAar:) the saying is a prov.

[of pauc.] أَزْرَارٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and [of mult.] زُرُورٌ. (K.) [Hence the saying,] هُوَ أَلْزَمُ لِى

A2: مَرْكَبٌ زُرْزُورٌ A narrow مركب [or animal, or thing, upon which one rides or is carried; accord. to the TK, meaning a beast; for it is there added that one says حِمَارٌ زُرْزُورٌ, meaning a narrow ass].

زُرَازِرٌ: see زَرِيرٌ.

دن

1 دَنَّ: see R. Q. 1, in four places.

A2: [دَنِنَ is mentioned by Golius and Freytag (by the former as from the S) as though it were the verb of which دَنَنٌ (q. v.) is the inf. n.; but I find no authority for it: and if دَنَنٌ have a verb, it should, accord. to rule, be دَنَّ, aor. يَدَنُّ.]2 دَنَّّ see R. Q. 1.4 ادنّ, (T, K,) inf. n. إِدْنَانٌ, (T, TA,) He (a man, T, TA) remained, stayed, abode, or dwelt, (T, K, TA,) [as though set in the ground like a دَنّ,] بَالمَكَانِ in the place; like أَبَنَّ: (T, TA:) on the authority of Aboo-Turáb, (T,) or Ibn-ElFaraj. (TA.) R. Q. 1 دَنْدَنَ It buzzed, or made a buzzing sound; syn. صَوَّتَ, and طَنَّ, (K,) and طَنْطَنَ; (Sh, T, TA;) as also ↓ دَنَّ, and ↓ دنّن; said of the fly, (K,) [and of the bee, and of the hornet, and the like; for] دَنْدَنَةٌ [inf. n. of دَنْدَنَ] (Lth, T, M, K) and دَنِينٌ [inf. n. of ↓ دَنَّ] (Lth, T, M) and ↓ دِنْدِنٌ [a simple subst.] (M) signify the buzzing (صَوْت, Lth, T, M, K) of the fly, (M, K,) or the bee, (Lth, T,) and the hornet, (Lth, T, M, K,) and the like. (M.) b2: and [hence,] He (a man) spoke in a low, gentle, or soft, tone, so that his speech was not understood; (A'Obeyd, K, TA;) [as also ↓ دَنَّ; for] دَنْدَنَةٌ [inf. n. of the former] (A'Obeyd, T, S, M, K) and دَنِينٌ [inf. n. of ↓ دَنَّ] and ↓ دِنْدِنٌ (M, K) signify the speaking in a low, gentle, or soft, tone, (A'Obeyd, T, S,) or in the manner termed هَيْنَمَةٌ, (M, K,) so that the speech is not understood: (A'Obeyd, T, S, M:) or دَنْدَنَةٌ signifies [merely] the speaking in a low, or faint, tone: (M:) accord. to IAth, it is a little above what is termed هَيْنَمَةٌ. (TA.) A poet says, نُدَنْدِنُ مَثْلَ دَنْدَنَةِ الــذُّبَابِ [We buzz in our speech like the buzzing of the fly]. (Sh, T.) And it is said in a trad., حَوْلَهَا نُدَنْدِنُ, (S,) or حَوْلَهُمَا, (M, JM, TA,) which is thus explained: the Prophet asked an Arab of the desert, “What dost thou say in the تَشَهُّد? ” [see this word, which means the repetition of a form of words at the close of the ordinary prayers:] and he answered, “I ask of God Paradise, and seek protection of Him from the fire [of Hell]: but as to thy دَنْدَنَة and the دَنْدَنَة of Mo'ádh, I do not approve it: ” and the Prophet said, حَوْلَهُمَا نُدَنْدِنُ; (M, JM; *) i. e. [We speak with a low, or faint, voice] about those two things, namely, the seeking Paradise and the praying for protection from the fire [of Hell]; and on account of them: (JM:) accord. to some, it is from دَنْدَنَ حَوْلَ المَآءِ He went round about the water: [hence it may mean we utter our prayer respecting them with a low, or faint, sound, as though we were buzzing round about them like flies; seeking to enter the one, and to keep outside the other:] As says that it may be from the signification of the sound [of buzzing], or from that of going round about: (TA:) or, accord. to one relation, the Prophet said, عَنْهُمَا نُدَنْدِنُ [From a consideration of them we utter our prayer with a low, or faint, voice;] i. e. our دَنْدَنَةُ arises from them; and is because of them: and hence, (JM,) دَنْدَنَ means also He (a man, JM) went to and fro in one place. (JM, TA.) دَنٌّ A wine-jar: (MA:) a [jar of the kind called] حُبّ: (S:) or [a jar] in form like a حُبّ: (Msb:) or a large رَاقُود [or earthen jar, smeared inside with pitch, long in the lower part], (M, K,) in form like the حُبّ, (M,) but taller; (M; in the K, or taller than the حُبّ;) uniform in make, [tapering to the bottom,] having at the lower end what resembles the قَوْنَس [or tapering top] of a helmet: (M:) or smaller than the حُبّ, having a pointed lower extremity, [so I render عُسْعُسٌ, (agreeably with the TK,) regarding it as a dial. var., or perhaps a mistranscription, of عُصْعُصٌ, which properly signifies the “ os coccygis,”] (M, K,) so that (M) it will not sit [upright] without one's digging a hole for it: (M, K:) IDrd says that it is a genuine Arabic word: (M:) pl. [of mult.] دِنَانٌ (T, S, M, Msb) [and دِنَنَةٌ and (of pauc.) أَدْنُنٌ and أَدُنٌّ, as appears from the following saying of IAar, quoted by Az:] one says دَنٌّ and أَدْنُنٌ and أَدُنٌّ and دِنَانٌ and دِنَنَةٌ. (T.) [See an ex. in a verse of El-Aashà

cited voce اِرْتِسَامٌ.]

دَنَنٌ A bending, or curving, in the back [so that it resembles a دَنّ: see أَدَنُّ]: (M, K:) and a nearness [to the ground] in the neck and breast, (M, K,) and a stooping, (M,) and lowness, therein, (M, K,) by original natural constitution: it is in a man, (M,) and in a horse or the like, and any quadruped: (M, K:) or shortness, and lowness, or depression, of the neck: (R, TA:) or, in a horse, shortness of the fore legs: or, accord. to As, in any quadruped, nearness of the breast to the ground; which is one of the worst of faults: (S:) or, accord. to Az, in a camel, a leaning forward, with shortness of the fore legs: and, accord. to AHeyth, in a horse or similar beast, shortness of the fore legs, and a consequent nearness of the neck to the ground. (T.) دِنَّةٌ A certain insect resembling an ant: (K:) so called because of its shortness. (TA.) دِنِّيَّةٌ The [kind of cap called] قَلَنْسُوَة, of a Kádee; likened to a دَنّ; (K;) a قلنسوة worn by Kádees, as though so called in relation to the دَنّ, because high and round: (Har p. 109:) accord. to Esh-Shereeshee, originally دَنِينَةٌ; a قلنسوة pointed at the extremity, [in my original الاطراف is erroneously put for الطَّرَف,] worn by Kádees and great men: not a genuine Arabic word, but of the dial. of El-'Irák. (TA.) دِنْدِنٌ syn. with دَنْدَنَةٌ: see R. Q. 1, in two places.

A2: Also Herbage (S, M, K) and trees, (M, K,) or dry herbage, (As, T,) become black, (As, T, S, K,) or wasted and black, (M,) by reason of oldness: (As, T, S:) or what is broken in pieces of [the species of barley-grass called]

بُهْمَى, when it has become black and old: or the stems (أُصُول) of old and wasted trees: (M:) accord. to Lth, the stems (اصول) of trees: but the right explanation is that given above on the authority of As. (T.) دَنَادِنُ The ذَلَاذِل [or lower parts, that are next the ground,] of garments. (K.) أَدَنُّ One whose back resembles the دَنّ; (IAar, T;) [i. e.] having a bending, or curving, in the back; (S, M, K;) applied to a man; (S;) hump-backed: (Fr, TA in art. عجر:) and having the neck and breast near [to the ground], (M, K,) and stooping, (M,) and low, (M, K,) by original natural constitution: applied to a man, (M,) and to a horse or the like, and any quadruped: (M, K:) or, applied to a horse, short in the fore legs: (S:) or, applied to a camel, leaning forward, with shortness of the fore legs: (Az, T:) or, applied to a horse or the like, short in the fore legs, and consequently having his neck near to the ground: (AHeyth, T:) As said that no أَدَنّ ever outstripped except that of the Benoo-Yarbooa: (M:) fem. دَنَّآءُ. (M, K.) [See also دَنَنٌ.] b2: Also, applied to a house, or chamber, or tent, (بَيْت, [for which Golius appears to have read نَبْت,]) Low, or depressed, [app. in its roof.] (S, K.)
