(T, TA.) You say, جَنِفَ, (T, S, Mgh, Msb,) aor. ـَ inf. n. جَنَفٌ; (S, Msb;) [and app. جَنَفَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. جُنُوفٌ;] and ↓ اجنف; (T, Msb, TA;) He inclined or declined [in speech and in any affair]: (T, S, TA:) and he declined, or deviated, from the right course; acted wrongfully, unjustly, injuriously, or tyrannically; (T, Mgh, Msb, TA;) عَلَيْهِ against him.

[of جَنِفَ, q. v.]: Abu-l-'Iyál El-Hudhalee says, أَلَّا دَرَأْتَ الخَصْمَ حِينَ رَأَيْتُهُمْ جَنَفًا عَلَىَّ بِأَلْسُنٍ وَعُيُونِ [Wherefore didst not thou repel the adversaries, when thou sawest them inclining, or acting wrongfully, against me with tongues and eyes?]: or, accord. to one reading, جُنُفًا [which is a pl. of ↓ جَانِفٌ]: (Skr p. 128:) [or, as some say,] جَنَفًا is a pl.

جَمَلٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ جَمْلٌ, (K,) which latter is so rare that it is said by some to be used only in poetry, in cases of necessity, (MF,) but it is a correct dial. var., (TA,) a word of well-known meaning; (K;) i. e., [A he-camel; but commonly applied to the camel as a generic term; in like manner as جَامِلٌ is applied to the males and the females; but properly,] the male of the إِبِل; (TA;) the mate of the نَاقَة; (Fr, S, Mgh;) among camels, corresponding to رَجُلٌ among us; (Sh, Msb;) نَاقَةٌ corresponding to مَرْأَةٌ, and بَكْرٌ to غُلَامٌ, and بَكْرَةٌ to جَارِيَةٌ; (Sh, TA;) [in general] peculiarly applied to the male; (Msb;) exceptionally to the female, as in the saying شَرِبْتُ لَبَنَ جَمَلِى, (K,) i. e., I drank the milk of my she-camel; but ISd doubts the correctness of this: (TA:) [as corresponding to رَجُلٌ among us, it signifies a full-grown hecamel:] or it signifies such as is termed رَبَاعٍ [or one in his seventh year]: (S, ISd, K:) or such as is termed جَذَعٌ [or one in his fifth year]: (ISd, K:) or such as is termed بَازِلٌ [or one in his ninth year]: (ISd, Mgh, Msb, K:) or such as is termed ثَنِىٌّ [or one in his sixth year]: (ISd, K:) or, accord. to Z, one that has covered: (TA:) [see also بَعِيرٌ, and بَكْرٌ, and قَعُودٌ:] pl. [of pauc.]

أَجْمَالٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) which may be pl. of جَمْلٌ, (TA,) and أَجْمُلٌ (Msb) and [of mult.]

جِمَالٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and جُمْلٌ (K) and جِمَالَةٌ (Mgh, Msb, K) and [quasi-pl. n.] جُمَالَةٌ and جَمَالَةٌ and جَامِلٌ, (K,) which last is disallowed by some, as will be seen below, (TA,) and [pl. pl.] جِمَالَاتٌ, (S, Msb, K,) which is pl. of جِمَالٌ, (Msb, TA,) or it may be pl. of جِمَالَةٌ, (TA,) and جُمَالَاتٌ [which see also voce جُمَّلٌ] and جَمَالَاتٌ (K) and جَمَائِلُ, (S, K,) pl. of جمالة and جِمال, (Ham p. 527,) and أَجَامِلُ. (K.) One says of camels, when they are males, without any female among them, هٰذِهِ جِمَالَةُ بَنِى فُلَانٍ [These are the hecamels of the sons of such a one]. (ISk, S. [See also جُمَالَةٌ.]) And they said also جِمَالَانِ [meaning Two herds of camels, thus forming a dual from the pl. جِمَالٌ], like as they said لِقَاحَانِ. (ISd, in TA voce خَيْلٌ.) It is said in a prov., مَااسْتَتَرَ مَنْ قَادَ الجَمَلَ [He does not conceal himself who leads the he-camel]. (TA.) And in another prov., اِتَّخَذَ اللَّيْلَ جَمَلًا (assumed tropical:) He journeyed all the night. (K, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 230.]) b2: الجَمَلُ also signifies A certain fish (IAar, K) of the sea, (IAar, TA,) thirty cubits in length: (K:) or, as some say, جَمَلُ البَحْرِ is the name of a very great fish, also called the بَال, [i. e., the whale,] thirty cubits in length: accord. to some, this, (TA,) or جَمَلُ المَآءِ, (Mgh,) is what is called the كَوْسَج and كُبَع (Mgh, TA) and لُخْم, [i. e., xiphias, or sword-fish,] which passes by nothing without cutting it. (TA.) [In the present day, جَمَلُ البَحْرِ is an appellation of The pelican.] b3: عَيْنُ الجَمَلِ, in the dial. of Egypt, i. q. الشَّاه بَلُّوط [The chestnut]. (TA.) b4: جَمَلٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) A woman's husband. (L in arts. اخذ and قيد. See 2 in each of those arts.) b5: Also (tropical:) Palm-trees; (K;) as being likened to the he-camel in respect of their tallness and their bigness and their produce: in some of the copies of the K, النَّحْلُ is erroneously put for النَّخْلُ. (TA.) b6: See also جُمَّلٌ.

جُمُلٌ A company, or congregated body, of men. (ISd, K.) b2: See also جُمَّلٌ.

(TA, in two places in this art.) b2: Hence, app., (TA,) The aggregate of a thing; (K;) the sum, whole, or total; (KL, PS;) it implies muchness, or numerousness, and means any aggregate unseparated: (Er-Rághib, TA:) pl. جُمَلٌ. (S.) [جُمْلَةٌ مِنْ مَالٍ generally means A large sum of money; and in a similar sense جُمْلَةٌ is often used in relation to various things.] It is said in the Kur [xxv. 34], وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ لَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الْقُرْآنُ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً, i. e., [And those who disbelieved said, Wherefore was not the Kur-án sent down, or revealed, to him] aggregated? (TA:) [or in one aggregate?] or at once? (Bd.) [Hence, بِالجُمْلَةِ as meaning Upon the whole; to sum up.]

b3: And hence, in grammar, (TA,) [A proposition; a clause; a phrase; sometimes, a sentence;] a phrase composed of a subject and an attribute, [i. e., composed of an inchoative and an enunciative, (in which case it is termed جُمْلَةٌ اسْمِيَّةٌ,) or of a verb and its agent, (in which case it is termed جُمْلَةٌ فِعْلِيَّةٌ,)] (KT, TA,) [&c.,] whether affording a complete sense, as زَيْدٌ قَائِمٌ [Zeyd is standing], or not, as إِنْ يُكْرِمْنِى [If he treat me with honour]. (KT.) جَمْلَآءُ: see جَمِيلٌ.

جَمَالٌ inf. n. of جَمُلَ: (S, Mgh, Msb:) [when used as a simple subst., meaning] Beauty, goodliness, comeliness, or pleasingness, syn. حُسْنٌ, (S, M, Mgh, * K,) in person, (M, K,) and goodness in action, or actions, or behaviour, (M, TA,) or also, in moral character: (K:) or elegance, or prettiness; i. e., delicacy, or minuteness, of beauty: (Sb, Msb:) or much goodness, or beauty or goodliness or comeliness, in the mind, or in the person, or in the actions or behaviour; and also, much goodness that is communicated from its possessor to another: (Er-Rághib, TA:) accord. to As, [when relating to the person,] حُسْنٌ is in the eyes; and جَمَالٌ, in the nose. (TA in art. حسن.) [See also جَمِيلٌ.] One says, جَمَالَكَ أَنْ لَا تَفْعَلَ كَذَا, (ISd, K,) or أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا, (IDrd, TA,) meaning, Keep to that which is most comely for thee to do, and do not thus. (IDrd, ISd, K. [But see what follows.]) b2: Also Patience. (Mgh in art. خص.) Aboo-Dhu-eyb says, جَمَالَكَ أَيُّهَا القَلْبُ القَرِيحُ سَتَلْقَى مَنْ تُحِبُّ فَتَسْتَرِيحُ (S, * TA, the former of which cites only the first hemistich, and the latter substitutes الجَرِيحُ for its syn. القَرِيحُ,) meaning, [Keep thy patience, O thou wounded heart: thou wilt find whom thou lovest, and be at rest: or] keep to thy patience, or thy constraint of thyself to be patient, and thy shrinking from what is foul, and be not impatient in an evil manner. (S, TA.) جُمَالٌ: see جَمِيلٌ: A2: and جُمَالَةٌ.

جَمُولٌ A piece of fat melted. (IAar, TA.) [See also جَمِيلٌ.] b2: A fat woman. (IAar, K.) b3: A person, (K,) or woman, (M,) who melts fat. (M, K.) جَمِيلٌ Melted fat: (S, Mgh:) or melting fat: or fat that is melted and collected: (K, TA:) or fat that is melted, and, whenever it drips, made to drip upon bread, and then replaced over the fire [that it may drip again: see جَمَلَ]: (TA:) and ↓ جُمَالَةٌ, also, signifies [the same; or] melted grease. (Mgh, * TA.) [See also جَمُولٌ.]

A2: Hence, accord. to Abu-l-'Alà, because, when a man becomes fat and in good condition, his جَمَال becomes apparent, (Ham p. 155,) as also ↓ جُمَالٌ and ↓ جُمَّالٌ, (K,) or this last denotes a higher degree of beauty than جَمِيلٌ, (S, Sgh,) and has no broken pl., (TA,) and ↓ أَجْمَلُ, (TA,) Beautiful, goodly, comely, or pleasing, (S, M, Mgh, K,) in person, (M, K,) and good in action, or actions, or behaviour, (M, TA,) or also in moral character: (K:) [like the Greek καλὸς, the Latin pulcher, the French beau, &c.; and so حَسَنٌ:] or elegant, or pretty; i. e., delicately, or minutely, beautiful: (Msb:) [or characterized by much goodness, or beauty or goodliness or comeliness, in his mind, or in his person, or in his actions or behaviour; and also characterized by much goodness communicated from him to others: see جَمَالٌ:] pl. of the first جَمَالٌ: (TA:) fem. جَمِيلَةٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) applied to a woman; (S, Mgh, Msb;) as also ↓ جَمْلَآءُ, (Ks, S, K,) [said to be] an instance of [the measure] فَعْلَآءُ having no [masc. of the measure]

أَفْعَلُ; (TA;) [but see above;] or this is applied to any female as signifying perfect, or complete, in body. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) It is said in a trad., إِنَّ اللّٰهَ جَمِيلٌ يُحِبُّ الجِمَالَ Verily God is comely in deeds, (TA,) or an Abundant Bestower of good things: He loveth those who are of the like character. (Er-Rághib, TA.) And you say, عَامَلَهُ بَالجَمِيلِ [He treated him with comely, or pleasing, behaviour]. (TA.) And مَاسَحَهُ بِالجَمِيل [He coaxed him, or wheedled him, with comely, or pleasing, behaviour or speech]. (ISd, K. [See 3.]) b2: أَبُو جَمِيلٍ [The kind of plants called] البَقْل; because they embellish by their presence, and render good, the seasoning of food; or because they take away the جَمِيل, i. e., the grease of the flesh-meat, and dry up the food. (Har p. 227.) جَمَالَةٌ: see the next paragraph.

A3: Also A herd, or distinct number, of camels; (K;) mentioned before as a pl. of جَمَلٌ [q. v.]: (TA:) or, of she-camels among which is no he-camel; as also ↓ جِمَالَةٌ and ↓ جَمَالَةٌ; (K;) but this is contradictory to a saying of ISk [respecting جِمَالَةٌ], mentioned above [voce جَمَلٌ; where all these three words are said to be pls. of جَمَلٌ]: (TA:) and also horses: pl. ↓ جُمَالٌ, which is extr. [as a pl.; though, in relation to جُمَالَةٌ, it may be a coll. gen. n., forming its n. un. with ة]. (AA, K.) جِمَالَةٌ: see what next precedes.

جَمِيلَةٌ A number of gazelles together: and of pigeons. (Ibn-' Abbád, K.) جُمَالِىٌّ applied to a man, (S, Msb, K,) Large in make: (S, Msb:) or tall in body: (Msb:) or firm [in make], (K,) or big in limbs, complete in make, (TA,) like a he-camel. (K, TA.) and with ة applied to a she-camel, (S, K,) Resembling a he-camel in greatness of make: (S:) or firm (K, TA) in make, (TA,) like a he-camel (K, TA) in greatness of make and in strength. (TA.) جُمَّلٌ (S, K, &c.) and ↓ جُمَلٌ and ↓ جُمْلٌ (K) and ↓ جُمُلٌ and ↓ جَمَلٌ (IJ, K) [A cable;] the rope of a ship, (S, K,) i. e., the thick rope thereof, (TA,) that is also called قَلْسٌ, (S, TA,) consisting of [a number of] ropes put together: (S:) and ↓ جُمَالَةٌ also signifies [the same; or] a thick rope, because consisting of many strands put together; pl. جُمَالَاتٌ; (Zj, TA;) which Mujáhid explains as meaning the ropes of bridges; but I 'Ab, as the ropes of ships, put together so as to be like the waists of men [in thickness]. (TA.) In all the forms mentioned above, except the last (جمالة), the word is read in the phrase [in the Kur vii. 38], حَتَّى يَلِجَ الجُمَّلُ فِى سَمِّ الخِيَاطِ [Until the cable shall enter into the eye of the needle]: (K, TA:) I 'Ab reads الجُمَّلُ, (S, TA,) and so do 'Alee and many others: ↓ جُمْلٌ is pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] of جُمْلَةٌ, a strand of a thick rope; or, accord. to IJ, pl. of جَمَلٌ [q. v.]: the first is explained by Fr as meaning ropes put together; but Aboo-Tálib thinks that he meant ↓ جُمَلٌ, without tesh-deed. (TA.) A2: حِسَابُ الجُمَّلِ, (S K,) thought by IDrd to be not Arabic, (TA,) and ↓ الجُمَلِ, (K,) but IDrd doubts its correctness, The calculation by means of the letters د ج ب ا, &c. (TA.) جَمَّالٌ An owner, or an attendant, of a camel or camels: (KL, TA: * [see also جامِلٌ:]) and جَمَّالَةٌ owners, or attendants, of camels; (S, K, TA;) similar to خَيَّالَةٌ and حَمَّارَةٌ; (S, TA;) as the former is to حَمَّارٌ.

جَامِلٌ [act. part. n. of جَمَلَ.

A2: And also part. n. of جَمُلَ]. The Arabs say, اُجْمُلْ إِنْ كُنْتَ جَامِلًا [Become beautiful, &c., if thou be becoming beautiful, &c.]: but when they mean the quality [alone], they say, إِنَّهُ لَجَمِيلٌ [Verily he is beautiful, &c.]. (Lh, TA.) A3: A man possessing a جَمَل [or he-camel]. (TA. [See also جَمَّالٌ.]) b2: A herd, or distinct number, of camels, (S, K, * TA,) males and females, (TA,) with their pastors and their owners: (S, K, TA: [also said in the K to be a pl. of جَمَلٌ: in the CK, الجامِعُ is erroneously put for الجَامِلُ:]) or a word formed to denote a pl., meaning camels, (Ham pp. 122 and 490,) males and females; (Id p. 122;) derived from جَمَلٌ; (Id. p. 490;) like بَاقِرٌ (Id. ib. and TA) from بَقَرٌ, (Ham p. 490,) and كَالِبٌ [from كَلْبٌ].

J cites, as an ex. of this word in the sense of شخص, from a verse of Bishr, سَنَامٌ كَجُثْمَانِ البَنِيِّةِ أَتْلَعَا observing that by البنيّة is meant the Kaabeh: but IB says that the right reading, as found in his poetry, is البَلِيَّةِ, and أَتْلَعُ; and that the meaning is, A [long] hump like the جثمان [or body] of the she-camel that is placed [and confined without food or water until she dies] at the grave of a dead man.

كَلْبٌ a word of well-known signification, [The dog:] (S:) or any wounding animal of prey: (L, K, &c.:) but whether birds [of prey] are comprised in this term is a point that requires consideration: (Esh-Shiháb El-Khafájee:) and especially applied to the barking animal [or dog]: (K:) or rather, this is its proper signification; and it admits no other: (MF:) sometimes used as an epithet; as in the ex.

(A 'Obeyd.) If we read الكلابُ, the meaning is The dogs are upon, or against, the wild oxen: and in like manner, if we read الكرابُ, the meaning is “ The turning over of the soil is the work of the oxen: ” if الكرابَ, “ Leave the turning over of the soil to the oxen. ” (MF, from expositions of the Fs.) b5: [كَلْبٌ كَلِبٌ seems also to signify A fierce, or furious, dog.

(El-Kazweenee.) b5: [الكَلْبَانِ, accord. to Freytag, A name of the two stars υ and κ which belong to Taurus: but accord. to my MS. of El-Kazweenee, the two stars that are near together on the ears of Taurus are called الكُلْيَتَانِ.] b6: كِلَابُ الشِّتَاءِ The stars, or asterisms, of the beginning of winter; namely, الذِّرَاعُ and المَّثْرَةُ and الطَّرْفُ and الجَبْهَةُ [the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th, of the Mansions of the Moon: so called because they set aurorally in the winter: the first so set, about the period of the commencement of the era of the Flight, in central Arabia, on the 3rd of January: see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل].

(TA.) Accord. to El-Mufaddal, it originates from a disease which befalls the standing corn &c., and which is not removed until the sun rises upon it: if cattle eat of it before that, they die: wherefore Mohammad forbade pasturing by night: but sometimes a camel runs away, and eats of such pasture before sunrise, and dies in consequence: then a dog comes, and eats of its flesh, and becomes mad; and if it bite a man, he also becomes mad, and when he hears the barking of a dog, answers it [by barking]. (TA.) b3: دِمَاءُ المُلُوكِ أَشْفَى مِنَ الكَلَبِ [The blood of kings has cured of canine madness]: or, accord. to another reading, دِمَاءُ المُلُوكِ شِفَاءُ الكَلَبِ [The blood of kings is the cure for canine madness]. A proverb, explained by what is quoted from Lh, voce كَلِبٌ.

[When war sets over thee &c.] there are two opinions: one, that by كليب is meant مُكَالِب (see 2): the other, that it is an inf. n. of كَلِبَتِ الحَرْبُ [“ The war became vehement, severe, or fierce ”]: the former is the more valid. (IM.) كَلَّابٌ: see كَلْبٌ and مُكَلِّبٌ.

كِسْرَوِىٌّ and ↓ كِسْرِىٌّ Of, or relating to, كِسْرَى; rel. ns. from كِسْرَى: (S, Msb, K:) and كَسْرَوِىٌّ alone is the rel. n. from كَسْرَى. (Msb.) [In the TA, it is said that one should not say كَسْرَوِىٌّ; but it seems that what is not allowable is كَسْرِىٌّ.]

(TA.) b2: أَرْضٌ ذَاتُ كُسُورٍ (tropical:) A land having [places of] ascent and descent. (S, A.) b3: See also كَسْرٌ and كِسْرٌ.

(TA.) b2: ناقة كَسِيرٌ (S, K) i. q. مَكْسُورَةٌ [lit., A broken she-camel,] (K,) is like the phrase كَفٌّ خَضِيبٌ, (S, TA,) meaning مَخْضُوبَةٌ: (TA;) or a she-camel having one of its legs broken: (Mgh:) and شَاةٌ كَسِيرٌ a sheep, or goat, having one of its legs broken: كسير being of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ: (Mgh, Msb:) and كَسِيرَةٌ also, [app. as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant,] like نَطِيحَةٌ: (Msb:) كَسِيرٌ, occurring in a trad. is explained as signifying a sheep, or goat, having a broken leg, that cannot walk; (IAth, * Mgh;) but this requires consideration. (Mgh.) كَاسِرٌ [Breaking]; fem. with ة: pl. masc. and fem. كُسَّرٌ; and pl. fem. كَوَاسِرُ also (K.) b2: (tropical:) Folding or doubling, and leaning or reclining upon, a pillow or cushion. Hence the following. in a trad. of 'Omar, لا يَزَالُ أَحَدُهُمْ كَاسِرًا وِسَادَهُ عِنْدَ امْرَأَةٍ مُغْزِيَةٍ, meaning, (tropical:) Not one of them ceases to fold or double his pillow or cushion at the abode of a woman whose husband is absent in war, and to lean or recline upon it, and enter upon discourse with her.

(Ibn-'Akeel: see Dieterici's “ Alfijjah ” &c.; pp.329 and 330.) b2: Also تَكْسِيرٌ (assumed tropical:) [The area of a circle]: in the circle are three things: دَوْرٌ [or circumference] and قُطْرٌ [or diameter] and تَكْسِيرٌ [or area], which [last] is the product of the multiplication of the half of the قطر by the half of the دور: and it is sometimes called مِسَاحَةٌ. You say, مَا تَكْسِيرُ دَائِرَةٍ

قُطْرُهَا سَبْعَةٌ وَدَوْرُهَا اثْنَانِ وَعِشْرُونَ [What is the area of a circle of which the diameter is seven and its circumference two-and-twenty?]: and the answer is ثَمَانِيَةٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ وَنِصْفٌ [Eight-and-thirty and a half]. (TA.) [It is scarcely necessary to add that this is not perfectly exact.]

You say, عُودٌ صُلْبُ المَكْسِرِ [Wood, or a piece of wood, or a branch, or twig, hard in the place of breaking,] when you know its goodness by its breaking: (S, A:) and عُودٌ طَيِّبُ المَكْسِرِ [Wood, &c., good in the place of breaking,] i. e. approved.

(TA.) And فُلَانٌ طَيِّبُ المَكْسِرِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is praised when tried, proved, or tested: (S, TA:) and رَدِىْءُ المَكْسِرِ [dispraised when tried, &c.]. (TA.)

(S, ISd, K.) مُنْكَسِرٌ has for its pl. مَكَاسِيرُ, which is extr.; like مَسَاحِيقُ, pl. of مُنْسَحِقٌ.

خسر

1 خَسِرَ, (S, A, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـَ (K;) and خَسَرَ, aor. ـِ (K;) but the latter is an unusual form [except in the sense of أَخْسَرَ]; (B, TA;) inf. n. خُسْرَانٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and خُسْرٌ (S, Msb, K) and خَسَارَةٌ (Msb, K) [which are the only forms assigned in the TA to the verb when used with reference to traffic] and خُسُرٌ and خَسْرٌ and خَسَرٌ and خَسَارٌ; (K;) He lost, or suffered loss or diminution: or he was deceived, cheated, beguiled, or circumvented: (K:) فِى البَيْعِ in selling; (S;) or فِى بَيَعِهِ in his selling; (A;) or فِى تِجَارَتِهِ in his traffic: (Msb, K: [see also 4:]) the former is the original signification: (TA:) he suffered diminution of his capital; he lost part thereof: (B, TA:) and he lost his capital altogether. (Bd in iv. 118; &c.) خُسْرَانٌ is also attributed to an action, as well as to a man: (B, TA:) you say, (but in this case the verb is used tropically, A,) خَسِرَتْ تِجَارَتُهُ (tropical:) [His traffic was losing; or an occasion of loss]; (A, B;) opposed to رَبِحَتْ. (A.) It is also used in relation to personal acquisitions; such as health, and safety, and intellect, and faith, and the recompense or reward of obedience [to God], which God has declared [Kur xxii. 11 and xxxix. 17] to be manifest خُسْرَان, (B,) since there is none like it. (Bd.) For instance, you say, خَسِرَ عَقْلَهُ, and مَالَهُ, He lost his intellect, and his property. (IAar.) [In a phrase of this kind, the noun which immediately follows the verb may be considered as put in the accus. case on account of the rejection of a prep., namely فِى: for] it is said that خَسِرَ is never used otherwise than intransitively: though this has been contradicted, on the ground of the following phrase in the Kur [xxii. 11], خَسِرَ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةَ [He hath lost, or he loseth, the things of the present life and of the latter life]; and the like; as الَّذِينَ خَسِرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَ أَهْلِيهِمْ [Who shall have lost themselves, or their own souls, and their families, or their wives; Kur xxxix. 17 and xlii. 44]; (MF, TA;) i. e., themselves, or their own souls, by their having erred, and their families by their having caused them to err, or by being separated from them for ever; (Bd;) or by being themselves made to remain for ever in Hell, and by their not gaining access to the حُور prepared in Paradise [as wives] for the believers: (Jel:) or the meaning is, accord. to Fr, who shall be deceived of their own souls, &c.: or, accord. to others, who shall have destroyed their own souls, &c. (TA.) b2: Also [He experienced, or saw, that he was loser; or] his having lost became manifest to him: so in the Kur xl. [78 and] last verse. (TA.) b3: Also (with all the forms of the inf. n. above mentioned, K,) He erred; went astray; deviated from, or lost, or missed, the right way: or he became lost; he perished; or he died: syn. ضَلَّ, (K,) and هَلَكَ. (Msb.) A2: خَسَرَهُ, (A 'Obeyd, IAar, Zj, S, A, &c.,) aor. ـِ (Zj, Msb) and خَسُرَ, (Bd in lv. 8,) inf. n. خَسْرٌ (Msb, K) and خُسْرَانٌ; (K;) and ↓ اخسرهُ, (A 'Obeyd, Zj, S, A, Msb,) inf. n. إِخْسَارٌ; (Msb, K;) and ↓ خسّرهُ; (A;) He made it defective, or deficient; (A 'Obeyd, IAar, Zj, S, A, Msb, K;) namely, the weight, and the measure; (Zj, TA;) and the thing weighed; (TA;) and the balance, (A 'Obeyd, IAar, Zj, A, Msb,) by diminishing the weight. (Msb.) ↓ The second of these forms is more common, in this sense, than the first (Zj, TA) [and than the third]. For الْمِيزَانَ ↓ وَ لَا تُخْسِرُوا, in the Kur lv. 8, there are three other readings; namely تَخْسُرُوا and تَخْسُروا and تَخْسَرُوا; in the last of which, the prep. فِى is omitted after the verb.
