You say, راق فِى يَدِى كَذَا Such a thing was redundant, or remained over and above, in my hand; like رَاعَ; syn. زَادَ. (L in art. ريع.) and راق فُلَانٌ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ Such a one was, or became, above, or superior to, his family; surpassed, or excelled, his family. (JK.)

(JK, K: expl. in the former by رَفَعَ لَهُ فِى سَوْمِهَا وَ لَا يُرِيدُهَا; and in the latter by رَفَعَ لَهُ فِى ثَمَنِهَا وَ هُوَ لَا يُرِيدُهَا.) 4 أَرْوَقَ: see 2.

A2: اراقهُ, (Msb in art. ريق, and K in that and the present art.,) inf. n. إِرَاقَةٌ, (S in the present art., and so in the K accord. to the TA,) He poured it out, or forth; (S, Msb, K;) namely, water and the like, (S,) or water and blood: (Msb:) and one says also هَرَاقَهُ, (Msb, TA,) changing the أ into ه, originally هَرْيَقَهُ, like دَحْرَجَهُ, in measure, (Msb,) said by Lh to be of the dial. of El-Yemen, and afterwards to have spread among Mudar, (TA in art. ريق,) aor. ـَ (Msb, TA,) with fet-h to the ه, imperative هَرِقْ, originally هَرْيِقْ, like دَحْرِجْ, (Msb,) inf. n. هِرَاقَةٌ; (S and K in art. هرق;) and أَهْرَاقَهُ, aor. ـْ (Msb, TA,) with the ه quiescent, like يُسْطِيعُ aor. of إِسْطَاعَ; or, accord. to the T, أَهْرَقْتُ is wrong as being anomalous; and some say, هَرَقْتُهُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. هَرْقٌ, as though the ه were radical. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., إِنَّ امْرَأَةً

كَانَتْ تُهَرَاقُ الدِّمَآءَ or تُهْرَاقُ, the verb being in the pass. form, and the ه either meftoohah or quiescent, and الدماء being in the accus. case as a specificative; [so that the meaning is, Verily a woman used to pour forth with blood; for تهراق is equivalent to تَرِيقُ; but by rule the specificative should be without the article ال;] or الدماء may be in the nom. case, الدِّمَآءُ being for دِمَاؤُهَا [i. e. her blood used to pour forth]. (Msb.) ISd says that أَرَاقَ is judged to be originally أَرْوَقَ because the medial radical letter of a verb is more commonly و than ى; and because, when water is poured forth, its clearness appears, and it excites the admiration and approval of its beholder; [to which may be added, also because one says, هُما يَتَرَاوَقَانِ المَآءَ;] though Ks states that رَاقَ المَآءُ, aor. ـِ signifies The water poured out, or forth: IB says that أَرَقْتُ المَآءَ is from راق المَآءُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. رَيْقٌ, signifying the water went to and fro upon the surface of the earth. (TA.) One says also, of a man, اراق مَآءَ ظَهْرِهِ and هَرَاقَهُ and أَهْرَاقَهُ [meaning He poured forth his seminal fluid]. (TA.) b2: and أَرِقْ عَنْكَ مِنَ الظَّهِيرَةِ and هَرِقْ meaning (assumed tropical:) Stay thou until the mid-day heat shall have become assuaged, and the air be cool; syn. أَبْرِدْ. (IAar, TA in art. فيح.) b3: [See more in art. هرق.]5 تروّق It (wine, or beverage, [&c.,]) became clear [or rather cleared] without pressing, or expressing. (TA.) 6 هُمَا يَتَرَاوَقَانِ المَآءَ They two pour the water out, or forth, by turns. (TA.) رَوْقٌ [an inf. n. of رَاقَ, used as an epithet,] Clear; applied to water &c. (IAar, K.

(IAar, TA.)

(K.) A3: A horn (JK, S, K, TA) of any horned animal: (TA:) pl. أَرْوَاقٌ. (S, TA.) [Hence,] رَوْقُ الفَرَسِ (assumed tropical:) The spear which the horseman extends between the horse's ears: (K:) [for] spears are regarded as the horses' horns. (Ham p. 90.) And دَاهِيَةٌ ذَاتُ رَوْقَيْنِ (tropical:) A great calamity or misfortune; (K, TA;) lit. twohorned. (TA.) And حَرْبٌ ذَاتُ رَوْقَيْنِ (tropical:) A vehement war.

(TA.) b8: And (assumed tropical:) Life; i. e. the period of. life: whence the saying, أَكَلَ رَوْقَهُ (assumed tropical:) [He consumed his life; or] he became aged: (K:) or this saying means (assumed tropical:) his life became prolonged so that, or until, his teeth fell out, one after another. (S, O.) b9: (assumed tropical:) A part, or portion, of the night: (S, K:) pl., accord. to IB, أَرْوُقٌ: but accord. to Aboo-'Amr Esh-Sheybánee, this is pl. of رِوَاقٌ: (TA:) [or the pl. of رَوْقٌ in this sense is أَرْوَاقٌ.] Yousay, مَضَى رَوْقٌ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ (assumed tropical:) A part, or portion, of the night passed. (TA.) And أَرْوَاقُ اللَّيْلِ means (tropical:) The folds (أَثْنَآء) of the darkness of night. (K, TA.)

(TA.) Also (assumed tropical:) He ran vehemently: (A 'Obeyd, S, O, K:) not known, however, to Sh, in this sense; but known to him as meaning (assumed tropical:) he strove, laboured, toiled, or exerted himself, in a thing. (TA.) [Agreeably with this last explanation, it is said that] رَوْقٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A man's determination, or resolution; his action; and his purpose, or intention. (K, TA.) And hence the saying, أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ أَرْوَاقَهُ [meaning (assumed tropical:) He devoted his mind and energy to it, or him]: (TA:) [or] you say thus, and أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ شَرَاشِرَهُ, meaning his loving it, or him, (أَنْ يُحِبَّهُ,) vehemently [i. e.

[In my two copies of the S, and in the O and K, and hence in the TA, in the places of عَلَيْهِ and يُحِبَّهُ we find عَلَيْكَ and تُحِبَّهُ; evidently mistranscriptions which have been copied by one lexicographer after another without due consideration: or, if we read عَلَيْكَ, we should read يُحِبَّكَ; for in this case the meaning of the saying would certainly be he loved thee vehemently. Freytag, misled by the reading تُحِبَّهُ in the S and K, renders القى عليك ارواقه as meaning Magno amore erga ipsum te accendit. Golius gives, in its place, ضرب اوراقه عليه (for ارواقه), as meaning Valde amavit eum.]) b11: Yousay also, أَلْقَتِ السَّحَابَةُ أَرْوَاقَهَا, (JK, S, O, K,) or القت السحابة عَلَى الأَرْضِ ارواقها, (TA,) (tropical:) The cloud cast down its rain, and its vehement rain consisting of large drops, (S, O, K, TA,) upon the earth: (TA:) or persevered with rain, and remained stationary upon the land: (JK, TA:) or أَلْقَتِ السَّمَآءُ بِأَرْوَاقِهَا The sky cast down all the water that was in it: (IAmb, O, TA:) or this saying, (O, TA,) or the former, (K,) means cast down its clear waters; (O, K, TA;) from رَاقَ المَآءُ signifying “ the water was, or became, clear: ”

but IAmb deems this improbable, because the Arabs did not say مَآءٌ رَوْقٌ and مَاآنِ رَوْقَانِ and أَمْوَاهٌ أَرْوَاقٌ: (O, TA:) [i. e. they said رَوْقٌ only, in all cases when they used it as an epithet meaning “ clear,” because it is originally an inf. n., like عَدْلٌ &c.:] or, as some say, by بارواقها is meant its waters rendered heavy by the clouds: and one says, أَرْخَتِ السَّمَآءُ أَرْوَاقَهَا and عَزَالِيهَا (assumed tropical:) [The sky loosed, or let down, its spouts; the clouds being likened to leathern water-bags]: (TA:) [for]

رَوْقُ السَّحَابِ means (assumed tropical:) The مَسِيل [or channel by which flows the water] of the clouds. (TA in another part of the art. [See also رِوَاقٌ, as used in relation to clouds.]) A4: رَوْقٌ also signifies A substitute for a thing, (O, K,) accord. to [the JK and] Ibn-'Abbád. (O.) A5: And الرَّوْقُ meansThe breathing of [i. e. in] the agony of death (نَفْسُ النَّزْعِ). (O, K, TA. [In the CK and in my MS. copy of the K, نَفْسُ النَّزْعِ, which means the agony of death itself.]) رُوقٌ is said to be pl. of رُوقَةٌ, and of رَائِقٌ, and of أَرْوَقُ. (TA.) [See these three words.]

رَوَقٌ Length of the teeth, with a projecting of the upper over the lower: (JK:) or length of the upper incisors exceeding that of the lower, (S, O, K, TA,) with projection of the former over the latter. (TA.) [See also 1, last sentence.]

رَيْقٌ: see رَوْقٌ, in two places, in the former half of the paragraph: b2: and see also رِيِّقٌ.

رَوْقَةٌ i. q. جَمَالٌ رَائِقٌ [i. e. Beauty, comeliness, or elegance, &c., that induces wonder, or admiration, and pleasure, or joy; or surpassing beauty, &c.]. (K.) رُوقَةٌ Choice, or excellent: (Fr, O:) or goodly, or beautiful: (K:) applied to a boy and to a girl, (Fr, O, K,) and to a he-camel and to a she-camel: (Fr, O:) and very beautiful or comely or elegant; (K;) applied to one and more of human beings: (TA:) used alike as masc. and fem. and sing. and pl.

(S, O.) b2: [Hence, الرِّوَاقُ مِنَ السَّحَابِ, expl. in the TA as meaning ما دار مِنْهُ كَرِوَاقِ البَيْتِ: but دار is here evidently a mistranscription for كَانَ; and the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) The part, of the clouds, that resembles the رواق of the tent.

(JK, Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) رَاوُوقٌ A clarifier, or strainer, (S, Msb, K,) syn. مِصْفَاةٌ, (S, K,) for wine or beverage: (S:) the نَاجُود [q. v.] with which wine, or beverage, is cleared, (Lth, JK, K, TA,) without pressing, or expressing: (TA:) and (sometimes, S) the [kind of wine-vessel called] بَاطِيَة. (S, K.) Accord. to IAar, (O, TA,) who is said by Sh to differ herein from all others, (TA,) الرَّاوُوقُ signifies also The كَأْس [or drinking-cup, or cup of wine,] itself. (O, K, TA.) And Dukeyn uses it metaphorically in relation to youth; saying, أَسْقَى بِرَاوُوقِ الشَّبَابِ الخَاضِبِ [app. meaning (assumed tropical:) He gave to drink of the cup of ruddy youth: see خَاضِبٌ as an epithet applied to an ostrich]. (TA.) أَرْوَقُ [app. originally signifying Horned: b2: and hence,] (assumed tropical:) A horse between whose ears the rider extends his spear: when the rider does not thus, he [the horse] is said to be أَجَمُّ. (K.) b3: Also, applied to a man, (S, Mgh, K,) Having long teeth, with a projecting of the upper over the lower: (JK:) or having long incisors: (Mgh:) or whose upper incisors are longer than the lower, (S, K, TA,) and project over the latter: (TA:) fem. رَوْقَآءُ: (JK, TA:) and pl. رُوقٌ; (K, TA;) which is also said to be pl. of رُوقَةٌ, and of رَائِقٌ. (TA.) [In the K is added, after the mention of the pl., وَ كَذٰلِكَ قَوْمٌ رُوقٌ وَ رَجُلٌ أَرْوَقُ: an addition altogether redundant.]

A2: [It seems that it is also syn. with أَوْرَقُ, as being formed from the latter by transposition; and that hence] one says سَنَةٌ رَوْقَآءُ and سِنُونَ رُوقٌ [meaning (assumed tropical:) A rainless year and rainless years], and عَاثَ فِيهِمْ عَامٌ أَرْوَقُ كَأَنَّهُ ذِئْبٌ أَوْرَقُ [meaning (assumed tropical:) A rainless year made mischief, or havock, among them, as though it were a dusky wolf]. (TA.) See also رِوَاق, last sentence.

إِرَاقَةٌ inf. n. of 4. (S.) b2: And [hence,] The مَآء [meaning seminal fluid] of a man; as also هِرَاقَةٌ and إِهْرَاقَةٌ. (TA.) [See أَرَاقَ مَآءَ ظَهْرِهِ.]

مَرَاقٌ: see art. ريق.

مَآءٌ مُرَاقٌ [Water, and hence, seminal fluid, poured forth]. (TA. [There immediately followed by أَرَاقَ مَآءَ ظَهْرِهِ, q. v.]) رَجُلٌ مُرِيقٌ [A man pouring forth water, and hence, his seminal fluid]. (TA. [There immediately followed by مَآءٌ مُرَاقٌ, q. v.]) مُرَوَّقٌ: see رَائِقٌ: A2: and see مُرَيَّقٌ, in art. ريق.

A3: Also A tent (بَيْتٌ, S, K, and خِبَآءٌ, S) having a رِوَاق [q. v.]. (S, K. [Said in the TA to be tropical; but why, I do not see.]) هُوَ مُرَاوِقِى He has the رِوَاق of his tent fronting, or facing, that of mine; (JK, A, O, K; *) and so هُوَ جَارِى مُرَاوِقِى. (A, TA.)

سقب

1 سَقِبَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. سَقَبٌ, He, or it, was, or became, near. (Msb.) سَقَبٌ is syn. with قُرْبٌ. (S, A, K.) You say, سَقِبَتْ دَارُهُ, (S, and so in the K accord. to the TA,) with kesr [to the ق], (S,) [inf. n. as above;] or سَقَبَت, (so in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K and in my copy of the Mgh,) inf. n. سَقْبٌ, (so in my copy of the Mgh,) or سُقُوبٌ; (K;) [but I believe the verb to be correctly سَقِبَت, like its syn. صَقِبَت, and the inf. n. to be correctly سَقَبٌ, and perhaps سُقُوبٌ also;] His house was near; (S, Mgh, K;) as also ↓ أَسْقَبَت. (S, K.) It is said in a trad., الجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِسَقَبِهِ, meaning [The neighbour has a better, or the best, claim to pre-emption] by reason of his being near: (S, * A, Msb:) or the ب is a connective of احقّ with its complement, (Mgh, Msb,) not to denote a cause, (Mgh,) and بِسَقَبِهِ is expl. as meaning بِالضْلَرRُّفْعَةِ; (Mgh, Msb;) i. e. the neighbour has a better, or the best, claim to الضْلَرRُّفْعَة [or pre-emption], when his house is contiguous: (Mgh:) IAth says that it is adduced as an evidence that الضْلَرRُّفْعَة belongs to the neighbour though not a sharer; i. e., that he has a better claim thereto than one who is not a neighbour: but some explain الجار as meaning the partner, or sharer: or the meaning of the trad. may be, the neighbour has a better, or the best, claim to kindness and assistance because of his being near. (L, TA. [See also another reading (بِصَقَبِهِ), and explanations thereof, in art. صقب.]) 4 اسقبهُ He made him, or it, to be near: (K:) or اسقب دَارَهُ he made his house to be near. (S.)

(S, * TA. [In the former, only the second hemistich is cited.]) 6 تساقبت أَبْيَاتُهُمْ was probably used as meaning Their tents, or houses, were near together: see the part. n. of this verb below.]

Arabe, 2nd ed., ii. 358: and see سَقْبَةٌ below:] the pl. is أَسْقُبٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and سِقَابٌ and سُقُوبٌ and سُقْبَانٌ. (K.) أَذَلُّ مِنَ السُّقْبَانِ بَيْنَ الحَلَائِبِ [More vile than the male young ones of camels among the milch camels] is a prov. [from a verse of Keys Ibn-El-Khateem].

[See also صَقْبٌ.]) Applied to a branch, Juicy, thick, and long: (Az, TA: [and so صَقْبٌ:]) or anything of the like kind full and complete. (ADk, TA.) In the following verse, cited by Sb, وَسَاقِيَيْنِ مِثْلَ زَيْدٍ وَجُعَلْ سَقْبَانِ مَمْضْلَرRُوقَانِ مَكْنُوزَا العَضَلْ سَقْبَانِ signifies طَوِيلَانِ [tall], and is also written صَقْبَانِ: (Sh, TA:) [so that the meaning may be, And two waterers, or givers of drink, like Zeyd and Jo'al: they being two tall persons, light of flesh, compact in the muscles: I suppose هُمَا to be understood before the latter hemistich; because of the ns. in the nom. case: and I have substituted مَكْنُوزَا for مَنْكُوزَا, the reading in the TA, doubtless a mistranscription:] or it is for مِثْلَ سَقْبَيْنِ [meaning like two male young ones of camels]. (L, TA.) b3: And The pole of a [tent such as is called] خِبَآء; (S, K;) as also ↓ سَقِيبَهٌ: and so صَقَبٌ: (S:) pl. of the first سِقْبَانٌ. (K.) سَقَبٌ inf. n. of سَقِبَ [q. v.]. (Msb.)

(K, * TA.) سُقُوبٌ a pl. of سَقْبٌ [q. v.]. (K.) b2: Also The hind legs of camels: (IAar, K:) pronounced also with ص. (IAar, TA in art. صقب.) سَقِيبٌ: see سَاقِبٌ.

سَقِيبَةٌ: see سَقْبٌ, last sentence. b2: Also A baker's kneading-board: or his rolling-pin. (MA.) سَاقِبٌ [in the CK ثاقب] Near; (A, Msb, K;) and likewise with ص; (A;) as also ↓ سَقيتٌ (Msb) and ↓ سَقَبٌ, [likewise pronounced with ص,] (Mgh, K, * TA,) for ذُو سَقَبٍ, or it may be an inf. n. used as a subst. or an epithet, (Mgh,) and ↓ مُسْقِبٌ. (K, * TA.) You say مَكَانٌ سَاقِبٌ A near place: (A:) and ↓ مَنْزِلٌ سَقَبٌ and ↓ مُسْقِبٌ a near place of alighting or abode: (K, * TA:) and مِنْ دَارِهِ ↓ دَارِىسَقَبٌ My house is near his house. (Mgh.) b2: Also Distant: (Msb, K:) this meaning is mentioned by some, as well as the former: (Msb:) thus it has two contr. meanings: (K:) the latter of these is mentioned in the Mj; and the following verse is cited as a proof thereof; تَرَكْتَ أَبَاكَ بِأَرْضِ الحِجَازِ وَرُحْتَ إِلَى بَلَدٍ سَاقِبِ [Thou leftest thy father in the land of El-Hijáz, and wentest to a distant country].

2 سنّت القِدْرَ, inf. n. تَسْنِيتٌ, He put سَنُّوت, (S, K,) meaning كَمُّون [i. e. cumin, or cuminseed], (S,) into the cooking-pot. (S, K.) 3 سانتوا الأَرْضَ They sought after the herbage of the land, doing so diligently, or with labour or perseverance, or time after time. (M, K.) 4 اسنتوا They experienced drought, or barrenness: (S, M, A, K:) derived from سَنَةٌ; the و being changed into ت, [for سَنَةٌ is originally سَنْوَةٌ, or, accord. to one dial. سَنْهَةٌ,] to distinguish between this verb and أَسْنَى as signifying “ he remained in a place a year: ” or, as Fr says, they imagined the ه [meaning ة, in سَنَةٌ,] to be a radical letter, finding it to be the third letter, and therefore changed it into ت: (S:) accord. to Sb, the ت [in أَسْنَتَ] is substituted for the ى [in أَسْنَى]; and there is no instance of the like except ثِنْتَانِ [in which the ت is substituted for the final radical, ى], (M in the present art.,) and in words of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ [as اِتَّسَرَ for اِيتَسَرَ]. (M in art. ثنى.) 5 تَسَنَّتَهَا [He married her, or took her as his wife, he being an ignoble, or a low-born, but rich, man, and she being a noble, or high-born, but poor, woman; or] he, an ignoble, or a low-born, man, married her, a noble, or high-born woman, because of the paucity of her property and the abundance of his property. (S) And تسنّت كَرِيمَةَ آلِ فُلَانٍ He married the noble or highborn, woman of the family of such a one in the year of drought, dearth, or scarcity. (TA.) أَصَابَهُمْ سَنَتٌ, for سَنَةٌ, Drought, or barrenness, afflicted them, or befell them.

(M.) And the former, A man afflicted with drought, or barrenness; (TA in art. بقع;) as also ↓ مُسْنِتٌ: (TA in the present art.:) and ↓ رَجُلٌ مُسْنِتٌ a man indigent and desolate, possessing nothing: probably from أَرْضٌ مُسْنِتَةٌ, or عَامٌ مُسْنِتٌ, [both expl. below,] or from أَسْنَتُوا meaning as expl. above. (MF.) b2: And أَرْضٌ سَنِتَةٌ and ↓ مُسْنِتَةٌ Land that has not given growth to anything, (AHn, M, K,) in consequence of its not having been rained upon: but if containing any of the dry herbage of the preceding year, it is not termed مسنتة: it is not thus termed unless having in it nothing. (AHn, M.) [See also سَنِيتٌ.]

رَجُلٌ سَنُوتٌ A man evil in disposition. (M, L.) [See also مَسْنُوتٌ.]

عَامٌ سَنِيتٌ and ↓ مُسْنِتٌ A year of drought, or barrenness. (AHn, M, K.) [See also سَنِتٌ.]

سَنُّوتٌ, also pronounced سِنَّوْتٌ, (S, M, K,) the latter a dial. var. mentioned by Kr, (M,) and سُنُّوتٌ, a form mentioned by IAth and others, but the first is that which is commonly known, and the most chaste; (TA;) a word of which the meaning is differently explained, as follows: (M, TA:) Honey: (S, M, A, K:) i. q. رُبٌّ [i. e. rob, or inspissated juice, &c.]: (M, K:) a species of dates: fresh butter; syn. زُبْدٌ: cheese: (K:) i. q. كَمُّونٌ [i. e. cumin, or cumin-seed]; (Yaakoob, S, M, K;) so in the dial. of El-Yemen: (M:) or a certain plant resembling the كَمُّون: (IAar, M:) i. q. سِبِتٌّ [i. e. anethum graveolens, or dill, of the common garden-species; in the CK شِبِتّ]: and i. q. رَازِيَانَجٌ; (M, K;) which last is what is called in the Egyptian dial. شَمَرٌ [a name given in Egypt to the anethum graveolens, above mentioned, and to its seed; and also to the anethum fæniculum, or fennel].

سوف

1 سَافَ الشَّىْءَ, aor. ـُ (S, M, Msb) and يَسَافُ, (M,) inf. n. سَوْفٌ; (S, M, K;) and so ↓ ساوفهُ; (M, TA;) and ↓ استافهُ, (M, Msb, K, *) inf. n. اِسْتِيَافٌ; (S;) [and, accord. to Freytag, ↓ سوّفهُ; but he has not named his authority; if correct, probably having an intensive signification;] He smelled the thing. (S, M, Msb.) A poet says, (Msb,) namely, Ru-beh, (S, M,) أَخْلَاقَ الطُّرُقْ ↓ إِذَا الدَّلِيلُ اسْتَافَ [When the guide smells the natures of the roads to know whether he be pursuing the right course or deviating therefrom]. (S, M, Msb.) b2: [and hence, He hunted. (Freytag, from the Deewán el-Hudhaleeyeen.)]

A2: سَوْفٌ is also Syn. with صَبْرٌ. (IAar, K.) You say, of a man, ساف عَلَيْهِ, inf. n. سَوْفٌ, He endured it with patience. (TK.) A3: سَافَ, (S, M, O, K,) aor. ـُ (S, O, K) and يَسَافُ, (O, K,) inf. n. سَوْفٌ, (M,) said of a man, (M,) and of cattle, (مَال, M, O, K,) He, or they, perished, or died: (S, M, O, K:) or, said of cattle, they had a murrain occurring among them. (K.) A4: [سَافَ expl. by Freytag in this art., as though having for its aor. ـُ and meaning He smote a person with a sword, is a mistake, caused by a mistranscription (of سُفْتُهُ for سِفْتُهُ) in art. سيف in some copies of the K.]2 سوّفهُ, (S, M, K,) or سوّف بِهِ, (Msb,) inf. n. تَسْوِيفٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) He said to him time after time سَوْفَ أَفْعَلُ [I will do such a thing]; (S, Msb, TA;) derived from the particle سَوْفَ: (IJ, M:) and hence, (Msb,) he delayed, or deferred, with him; or put him off with promises; syn. مَطَلَهُ; (S, * Msb, K, TA;) saying سَوْفَ أَفْعَلُ; (TA;) or promising to be faithful to his engagement; (Msb;) mostly used in relation to a promise that is not to be fulfilled; as is said by Ibn-Abi1-Hadeed: (MF, TA:) and ↓ ساوفهُ signifies [the same, as is implied in the M, being syn. with]

مَاطِلَهُ: see an ex. in a verse cited voce سَوْفَ, last sentence. (TA.) التَّسْوِيفُ is [also expl. as] Syn. with التَّأْخِيرُ [app. as meaning the postponing, putting off, delaying, or deferring, anything]. (TA.) [And it is implied in art. عظب of the TA that it is Syn. with التَّمْرِينُ and التَّصْبِيرُ: so that you say, سوّفهُ عَلَيْهِ, meaning He inured, or accustomed, him to it; and made him to endure it with patience: see سَافَ عَلَيْهِ, above.] b2: You say also, سَوَّفْتُهُ أَمْرِى, meaning I made him (a man) to have the ordering and deciding of my affair, or case, (S, K,) to do what he would: (S:) and so سَوَّمْتُهُ.

(K.) 4 اساف, (S, M, K,) inf. n. إِسَافَةٌ, (TA,) said of a man, (S, M,) His cattle perished, or died: (S, K:) or he had murrain occurring among his cattle: so in a verse of Tufeyl, cited voce اِسْتَرْخَى, in art. رخو. (M.) [Hence,] one says, أَسَافَ حتّّى

مَايَشْتَكِى السَّوَافَ, (AA, S, Meyd, K,) or السُّوَافَ, (As, Meyd,) [He had murrain among his cattle until he did not complain of the murrain:] a prov., (Meyd,) applied to him who has become accustomed to casualties; (S, K;) or to him who has become inured to calamities, (A'Obeyd, Meyd, A,) so that he is not impatient of the vicissitudes of fortune. (A'Obeyd, Meyd.) b2: اساف الوَالِدَانِ The two parents lost their child by his death: in which case, the child is said to be ↓ مُسَافٌ; and his father, ↓ مُسِيفٌ; and his mother, ↓ مِسْيَافٌ. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) A2: اسافهُ اللّٰهُ God destroyed him, or took away his life. (M.) b2: اساف الخَرْزَ i. q. خَرَمَهُ [i. e. He spoiled the sewing of the skin, or hide; as when one uses a thick instrument for sewing or perforating, and a thin thong; or as when one rends two stitch-holes into one]. (M.) And اساف الخَارِزُ The sewer of a skin, or hide, perforated, or sewed, in such a manner that the two stitch-holes became rent [into one]. (A'Obeyd, K.) 8 إِسْتَوَفَ see 1, first and second sentences.

سَافٌ Any row, or course, (S, M, L, K, TA,) [i. e.] a single row, or course, (Mgh,) of bricks, (S, M, Mgh, L, K, TA,) or (so in the Mgh, but in the TA “ and ”) of clay, (Mgh, TA,) of a wall, (S, Mgh, K, TA,) or in a wall, (TA,) or in a building; (M, L, TA;) as also مِدْمَاكٌ: (TA:) pl. of pauc. آسُفٌ [formed by transposition, like آدُرٌ pl. of دَارٌ,] (L,) and سَافَاتٌ: (Mgh:) Lth explains السَّافُ as signifying what is between the سَافَات of the building: its ا is originally و. (TA.) [سَافَةٌ mentioned by Freytag as signifying “ a single series of stones in a wall,” on the authority of the K, I do not find there, nor in any other lexicon.]

A2: Also A certain bird, that preys. (M.) سَوْفَ, for which one also says سَفْ, (M, Mughnee, K,) rejecting the medial radical letter, (M, Mughnee,) and سَوْ, (M, Mughnee, K,) rejecting the final radical, (M, Mughnee,) and سَىْ, (M, Mughnee, K,) rejecting the final radical and changing the medial into ى for the purpose of alleviation [of the utterance], (M, Mughnee,) and accord. to the L سَا, (TA,) is a particle, (IJ, M, K,) denoting inception; (K;) or a word denoting تَنْفِيس, (Sb, S, M, K,) i. e. amplification, because it changes the aor. from the strait time, which is the present, to the ample time, which is the future; (Mughnee voce سَ [q. v.];) i. e., denoting تنفيس with respect to that which has not yet happened; (Sb, S, K;) and postponement; (M;) and is used in terrifying and threatening and promising; (IDrd, K;) or it is a word denoting promising or threatening: (Msb:) it is syn. with سَ accord. to some, or has a larger meaning than this latter accord. to others. (Mughnee.) You say, سَوْفَ

أَفْعَلُ [I will do such a thing]. (Sb, S.) And one may not introduce a separating word between it and its verb, [except in a case mentioned in what follows,] because it occupies the place of the س in سَيَفْعَلُ [&c.]. (Sb, S.) [But] it is distinct from سَ by its [sometimes] having ل prefixed to it; as in [the phrase in the Kur xciii. 5], وَلَسَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ رَبُّكَ فَتَرْضَى [And thy Lord will give thee, and thou wilt be well pleased]: (Mughnee:) in this phrase, [however,] the ل is [considered as] pre-fixed to the verb, not to the particle: (M:) or the phrase is elliptical, for لَأَنْتَ سَوْفَ يُعْطِيكَ. (Bd.) And it is distinct from سَ in this, that it is sometimes separated [from its verb] by a verb divested of government both as to the letter and the meaning; as in the saying, وَمَا أَدْرِى وَسَوْفَ إِخَالُ أَدْرِى

أَقَوْمٌ آلُ حِصْنٍ أَمْ نِسَآءُ [And I know not, but I shall, I think, know, whether the family of Hisn be a company of men or women]. (Mughnee.) b2: When you desire to make it a subst., [i. e. to use it as a subst.,] you make it to have tenween [when it is indeterminate]. (IDrd, K.) IDrd cites as an ex., إِنَّ سَوْفًا وَإِنَّ لَيْتًا عَنَآءٌ [Verily سَوْفَ and verily لَيْتَ are a weariness]: but one reading is إِنَّ لَوًّا; and another, إِنَّ لَيْتًا وإِنَّ لَوًّا; and there is no such reading as إِنَّ سَوْفًا. (O, TA.) One says also, فُلَانٌ يَقْتَاتُ السَّوْفَ [lit. Such a one feeds upon the word سَوْفَ]; meaning (tropical:) Such a one lives by means of things hoped for: (S, K, TA:) and in like manner, مَا قُوتُهُ إِلَّا السَّوْفُ [lit. His food is not anything but, or other than, the word سَوْفَ]. (A, TA.) b3: In the following verse of Ibn-Mukbil, cited by Sb, بِسَوْفٍ مِنْ تَحِيَّتِهَا ↓ لَوْ سَاوَفَتْنَا سَوْفَ العَيُوفِ لَرَاحَ الرَّكْبُ قَدْ قَنِعَا

[Had she put us off with a سَوْفَ as part of her greeting, with the putting off even of such as is affected with dislike, the riders had gone contented], سَوْفَ is put in the accus. case [for مُسَاوَفَةَ, i. e.] as an inf. n. with the augmentation [meaning the augmentative letters] rejected. (M.) سِيفَةٌ: see مَسَافَةٌ, in two places.

سَوَافٌ The [cucumber commonly called] قِثَّآء

[q. v.]: (M, K, TA:) so says AHn, (M, TA,) on the authority of Et-Toosee. (TA.) A2: See also what next follows.

سُوَافٌ and ↓ سَوَافٌ; with damm accord. to As, and so, he says, all the names of diseases, as نُحَازٌ and دُكَاعٌ and قُلَابٌ and خُمَالٌ [&c.]; accord. to AA, not so, but with fet-h, and in like manner said 'Omárah Ibn-'Akeel; (S;) or none relates it with fet-h except AA, and his relation is nought; (IB;) Disease of cattle, and death thereof: (S:) or each signifies death among mankind and cattle: (M:) or the latter, a mortality, or murrain, among camels; or so the former: or the latter, a mortality among mankind and cattle: (K:) and the former, disease of camels; (AHn, M, K;) and so the latter. (K.) One says, وَقَعَ فِى المَالِ سَوَافٌ [or سُوَافٌ] Death [or a murrain] happened among the cattle. (S.) مَسَافٌ The nose: because one smells (يُسَافُ, K, i. e. يُشَمُّ, TA) with it: (K:) so in the Moheet. (TA.) b2: See also مَسَافَةٌ, in two places.

مُسَافٌ A child taken from his parents by death: see 4. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) مُسِيفَ A man whose cattle have died. (TA.) b2: And A father having lost his child by death: see 4. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) مَسَافَةٌ [properly A place of smelling: b2: and hence,] (tropical:) Distance; (S, K, TA;) and ↓ مَسَافٌ and ↓ سِيفَةٌ signify the same in this sense [or in others here following]: (K:) [a space, or tract, or an extent, over which one journeys:] a far-extending tract that one traverses: originally a place of smelling of the guides, in order that they may know whether it be far or near, out of the way or in the right way: (A, TA:) or a [desert, or such as is termed] مَفَازَة: (M:) said to be from سَافَ الشَّىْءَ meaning “ he smelled the thing; ” for the guide smells the dust of the place wherein he is; and if he smell the odour of urine and dung of camels, he knows that he [or some other] has traversed it; but otherwise, not: (Msb:) or because the guide, when he is in a desert, (S, M, K,) and has lost his way therein, (M,) smells its dust, (S, M, K,) in order that he may know, (S, K,) or and thus knows, (M,) whether he be in the right way, (S, M, K,) or not: (S, K:) then, by reason of frequency of usage of this word [as meaning “ a place of smelling of the guides ”] it became a term for “ distance: ” (S, K:) pl. مَسَاوِفُ (A, TA) and مَسَافَاتٌ. (Msb.) One says, كَمْ مَسَافَةُ هٰذِهِ الأَرْضِ and ↓ مَسَافُهَا and ↓ سِيفَتُهَا (tropical:) [How long is the distance, or how much is the extent, of this land?]. (TA.) And بَيْنَهُمْ مَسَافَةٌ بَعِيدَةٌ (assumed tropical:) [Between them is a far-extending distance or space]. (Msb.) And بَيْنَنَا مَسَافَةُ عِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا (tropical:) [Between us is the distance, or space, of twenty days]. (TA.) b3: In the following saying of Dhu-rRummeh, it is doubly tropical: وَأَبْعَدُهُمْ مَسَافَةَ غَوْرِ عَقْلٍ

إِذَا مَا الأَمْرُ ذُو الشُّبُهَاتِ عَالَا (tropical:) (tropical:) [And the furthest of them in the extent of the depth of intelligence when the affair, or case, in which are dubiousnesses overcomes and is onerous]. (A, TA.) مُسَوِّفٌ One who does what he will, [as though he said time after time سَوْفَ أَفْعَلُ,] whom no one will make to turn back. (K.) b2: And, with ة, A woman who will not comply with the desire of her husband when he calls her to his bed, and strives with him to repel him in respect of that which he desires of her, and says سَوْفَ أَفْعَلُ: such is said, in a trad., to be cursed. (TA.) b3: Also, with ة, A well (رَكِيَّةٌ) of which one says, Water will be found (سَوْفَ يُوجَدُ) in it: or of which the water is smelt (يُسَافُ), and disliked, and loathed. (Ibn-'Abbád, Z, K.) b4: And, without ة, Very patient or enduring. (TA.) مُسْتَافٌ A place of smelling, or that is smelt. (O, K.) مِسْيَافٌ A mother having lost her child by death: see 4. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) إِنَّهَا لَمُسَاوِفَةٌ لِلسَّيْرِ [app. referring to a she-camel] Verily she is one that has ability for journeying. (M.)

سجل

1 سَجَلَ المَآءَ, (S, K,) inf. n. سَجْلٌ, (TA,) He poured out, or forth, the water, (S, K, JM, TA,) continuously. (JM, TA.) b2: Hence, سَجَلَ القُرْآنَ He read, or recited, the Kur-án continuously. (JM. [See also سَحَلَ.]) b3: See also 2: b4: and 4.2 سجّل, inf. n. تَسْجِيلٌ, (S, Msb, K,) said of a judge, (S,) or kádee, (Msb,) He wrote a سِجِلّ [q. v.]: (S, * K:) or he decided judicially, and recorded his sentence in the سِجِلّ: (Msb:) and Mtr says that ↓ إِسْجَالٌ may be syn. with تَسْجِيلٌ, signifying the writing of سِجِلَّات [pl. of سِجِلٌّ], though not found by him in the lexicons: (Har p. 473:) [but I have found it, for Sgh says,] the إِسْجَال of the kádee and his تَسْجِيل are one [in meaning]. (O.) You say, سجّل بِهِ He decided it judicially, [and recorded it in the سِجِلّ;] or he decreed it decisively; so expl. by the Shereef: or, as in the 'Ináyeh, he established it and recorded it [in the سِجِلّ]. (TA.) And سجّل القَاضِى

لِفُلَانٍ بِمَالِهِ The kádee secured to such a one his property [by a judicial decision recorded in the سِجِلّ]. (TA.) And سجّل عَلَيْهِ القَاضِى [The kadee decided judicially against him, and recorded his sentence in the سِجِلّ]. (Mgh.) b2: And سجّل عَلَيْهِ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) He rendered him notorious by reason of such a thing, and stigmatized him with it. (Z, TA.) A2: And سجّل بِهِ He threw it from above; as also ↓ سَجَلَ, inf. n. سَجْلٌ. (K.) A3: And سجّل, inf. n. as above, He (a man, TA) became affected with carnal appetite. (K.) 3 ساجلهُ, (K,) inf. n. مُسَاجَلَةٌ, (S, IB, TA,) [and app. سِجَالٌ also, (see سَجْلٌ,)] He vied, competed, or contended for superiority, with him; emulated, or rivalled, him; or imitated him; (S, IB, * K;) doing like as he did; (S, IB;) originally in the drawing of water; (S, * IB;) each of them bringing forth in his سَجْل [or bucket] the like of what the other brought forth [or endeavouring to do so]; the one, of them, that desisted being overcome: (IB:) and also, (assumed tropical:) in running: or in watering. (S.) Hence, فُلَانٌ يُسَاجِلُ فُلَانًا (tropical:) Such a one vies with such a one, each of them producing, [of the evidences] of nobility, the like of what the other produces; the one, of them, that desists being overcome. (IB.) El-Fadl Ibn-'Abbás Ibn-'Otbeh Ibn-Abee-Lahab says, مَنْ يُسَاجِلْنِى يُسَاجِلْ مَاجِدًا يَمْلَأُ الدَّلْوَ إِلَى عَقْدِ الكَرَبْ [He who contends for superiority with me contends for superiority with one possessing glory, who fills the bucket to the tying of the rope that is attacked to the middle of its cross-bars]: and hence the saying, الحَرْبُ سِجَالٌ. (S. [See سَجْلٌ.]) 4 اسجلهُ He gave him a bucketful (سَجْلًا) or two bucketfuls (سَجْلَيْنِ): (K:) or, as some say, (assumed tropical:) he gave him much. (TA.) b2: And اسجل الحَوْضَ He filled the watering-trough, or tank; (S, K;) as also ↓سَجَلَهُ. (JM.) b3: أُسْجِلَتِ البَهِيمَةُ مَعَ أُمِّهَا The beast was sent forth, or set loose or free, with its mother. (TA.) It is said in a trad., لَا تُسْجِلُوا أَنْعَامَكُمْ, meaning Set not loose your cattle in men's fields of seed-produce. (TA.) b4: And you say, اسجل النَّاسَ He left, or left alone, the people. (K.) b5: And اسجل لَهُمُ الأَمْرَ (assumed tropical:) He made the affair free, or allowable, to them. (K.) b6: And أَسْجَلْتُ الكَلَامَ (assumed tropical:) I made the speech, or language, to be unrestricted. (S.) A2: اسجل He (a man, TA) abounded in goodness, (K, TA,) and beneficence, and gifts to men. (TA.) A3: أَسْجَلْتُ لِلــرَّجُلِ, inf. n. إِسْجَالٌ, I wrote a writing for the man. (Msb.) b2: See also 2.6 تساجلوا They vied, competed, or contended for superiority, one with another; emulated, or rivalled, one another; or imitated one another; [originally, in the drawing of water: and hence, (assumed tropical:) in other things: (see 3:)] (S, TA:) and هُمَا يَتَسَاجَلَانِ They two vie, &c., each with the other. (K.) 7 انسجل It (water) poured out, or forth; or became poured out, or forth; (S, K;) [app., continuously: see 1.]

سَجْلٌ A full bucket: so accord. to Az and ElFárábee and others: (MS:) or a bucket containing water, whether little or much: such as is empty is not called سَجْلٌ nor ذَنُوبٌ: (S:) or a great bucket: (Msb: [see also سَجِيلٌ:]) or a great bucket that is full (K, TA) of water: (TA:) and a bucketful; the quantity that fills a bucket: (K:) it is of the masc. gender [though دَلْوٌ (the most common word for “ a bucket ”) is generally fem.]: (S, K:) pl. سِجَالٌ. (S.) b2: And [hence,] (assumed tropical:) A share, or portion; (Msb;) like دَلَاةٌ [which likewise originally signifies “ a bucket ”]. (S in art. دلو. [See also سَجِيلٌ.]) And hence is derived the saying, الحَرْبُ سِجَالٌ, [as though meaning (assumed tropical:) War is an affair of shares, or portions;] i. e. the victory in war is shared by turns among the people [engaged therein]: (Msb:) [but it is implied in the S that it is from المُسَاجَلَةُ, and that سِجَالٌ is here an inf. n. like مُسَاجَلَةٌ, agreeably with analogy; and if so, the saying may be rendered war is a contention for superiority: (see 3:)] or the saying الحَرْبُ بَيْنَهُمْ سِجَالٌ means (assumed tropical:) [War between them consists of portions, in such a manner that] a سَجْل [or portion] thereof is against these, and another is against these: (K:) originating from the act of two men drawing water with two buckets from a well, each of them having [in his turn] a full bucket. (TA.) You say also, أَعْطَاهُ سَجْلَهُ مِنْ كَذَا (tropical:) He gave him his share, or portion, of such a thing; like as one says, ذَنُوبَهُ. (Har p. 19.) The phrase سَجْلٌ

↓ سَجِيلٌ in the saying لَهُمْ مِنَ المَجْدِ سَجْلٌ سَجِيلٌ (K, * TA) has an intensive signification; (K, TA;) [the saying app. meaning (assumed tropical:) They have, of glory, a large share.] b3: Hence likewise, metaphorically applied to signify (tropical:) A gift: one says جَوَادٌ عَظِيمُ السَّجْلِ (tropical:) [A bountiful man who is large in gift]. (Har ibid. [The first word in this saying is there written جوّاد.]) One says also, لَهُ بِرٌّ فَائِضُ السِّجَالِ (assumed tropical:) [He has overflowing goodness or beneficence]. (TA.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) A bountiful man. (Abu-l-' Omeythil, K.) b5: And (assumed tropical:) A great udder: pl. سِجَالٌ and سُجُولٌ. (K.) A2: See also سِجِلٌّ, in two places.

سِجْلٌ: see the next paragraph.

سِجِلٌّ A writing; or paper, or piece of skin, written upon; (K, * TA;) as also سُجُلٌّ (TA) and ↓ سِجْلٌ (K, TA) [and ↓ سَجْلٌ, as appears from what follows]: or a طُومَار [meaning a roll, or scroll, or the like,] for writing upon or written upon: (Bd in xxi. 104:) and a written statement of a contract and the like; (K, TA;) i. e. (TA) i. q. صَكٌّ: (S, TA: [but see this word, which has also other meanings, and among them that here following, which is the most common meaning of سِجِلٌّ:]) the record of a kádee, or judge, in which his sentence is written; (Msb;) a judicial record: (Mgh:) [see also مَحْضَرٌ:] pl. سِجِلَّاتٌ. (Msb, K.) كَطَىِّ السِّجِلِّ لِلْكِتَابِ, in the Kur xxi. 104, means Like the folding of the طُومَار [expl. above] for the purpose of writing [thereon]: or for what is to be written: (Bd:) or upon what is written; (Bd, * Jel;) i. e., upon the written record [of the works] of the son of Adam at his death: (Jel:) or السِّجِلّ here has the third of the meanings here following: (Bd, Jel:] or the second thereof. (Bd.) b2: And A writer, or scribe: (K:) and so some explain it in the verse above cited. (TA.) b3: And السِّجِلُّ A certain scribe of the Prophet. (K.) b4: And A certain angel, (K,) who folds the written statements of [men's] works. (Bd ubi suprà.) b5: And, without the article, A man, in the Abyssinian language. (K.) In the verse cited above, I' Ab read ↓ السَّجْلِ, and explained it as meaning A certain man: but it is also said to mean a certain angel: and another reading is السُّجُلِّ, a dial. var. mentioned above. (TA.) السِّجَالُ a name for The ewe. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) b2: And سِجَال سِجَال [i. e. سِجَالْ سِجَالْ, so in my MS. copy of the K, but in the CK سِجالِ سِجالِ,] is A call to the ewe to be milked. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) سَجُولٌ A she-goat abounding in milk: thus correctly, as in the O: in the copies of the K, in the place of عَنْزٌ is put عَيْنٌ [making the meaning to be a spring abounding in water or an eye abounding in tears]. (TA.) سَجِيلٌ, applied to a bucket (دَلْو), Large, or big; as also with ة: (K:) or ↓ سَجِيلَةٌ [alone, i. e. as a subst., rendered such by the affix ة,] signifies a large, or big, bucket.

A2: And A share, or portion: (K:) IAar says, it is of the measure فَعِيلٌ from سَجْلٌ meaning “ a full bucket ” [and likewise “ a share, or portion ”]; but, he adds, it does not please me. (TA.) سَجَالَةٌ, in a testicle, Flaccidity and wideness in the scrotum. (K.) سَجِيلَةٌ: see سَجِيلٌ.

سِجِّيلٌ Stones like lumps of dry, or tough, clay: arabicized from سَنْگ وَ گِلْ; (K, TA;) which are Pers\. words, meaning “ stone and clay; ” the conjunction falling out in the arabicizing: (TA:) or baked clay: (Jel in xi. 84 and xv. 74 and cv. 4:) or stones (S, K) of clay (S) baked by the fire of Hell, whereon were inscribed the names of the people [for whom they were destined]: (S, K:) so in the Kur; as is indicated therein, in li. 33 and 34: (S:) or مِنْ سَجِّيلٍ in the Kur means مِنْ سِجِلٍّ, i. e. of what had been written [or decreed] for them, that they should be punished therewith; and سِجِّيل means the same as سِجِّين, mentioned and expl. in the Kur lxxxiii. 8 and 9: (K:) AO says that من سجّيل means many and hard; and that سِجِّينٌ is syn. with سِجِّيلٌ in this sense: (TA:) it is also said to be from سِجِّينٌ meaning Hell; the ن being changed into ل: (Bd in xi. 84:) also, to be from أَسْجَلْتُهُ meaning “ I sent forth him or it: ” or from أَسْجَلْتُ meaning “ I gave; ” and to be from السَّجْلُ. (TA.) A2: Also i. q. دَائِمٌ; and so سِجِّينْ [q. v.]. (L in art. سجن.) سَجَنْجَلٌ A mirror: (S, K:) or a Chinese mirror: (MA:) [said to be] a Greek word (رُومِىٌّ), (S, K,) arabicized: (S:) and some say زَجَنْجَلٌ. (Az, TA.)

(K.) أَسْجَلُ: see سَجِيلٌ. b2: سَجْلَآءُ, [the fem.,] applied to a she-camel, (S, K,) means (assumed tropical:) Long in the udder: (S:) or big in the udder: pl. سُجْلٌ. (K.) b3: And, applied to a woman, (assumed tropical:) Big in the posteriors: (K:) pl. as above. (TA.) مُسْجَلٌ Allowed, or made allowable, to every one; (S, K;) not denied to any one.

إِلَّا الْإِحْسَانُ [Shall the recompense of doing good be other than doing good?], هِىَ مُسْجَلَةٌ لِلْبَرِّ وَ الفَاجِرِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) It is unrestricted in its relation to the righteous and the unrighteous: a righteous person is not made to be conditionally intended thereby, exclusively of an unrighteous. (As, S, TA.) b3: And one says, فَعَلْنَاهُ وَ الدَّهْرُ مُسْجَلٌ (assumed tropical:) [We did it when fortune was unrestricted], i. e., when no one feared any one. (K.)

سحم

1 سَحِمَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. سَحَمٌ; and سَحُمَ; He, or it, was, or became, black. (Msb.) 2 سَحَّمُوا وَجْهَهُ They blackened his face; syn. حَيَّيُوهُ; as also سَخَّمُوهُ. (A, TA.) 4 اسحمت السَّمَآءُ The sky poured forth its water: (K:) mentioned as on the authority of IAar: but it has been mentioned before, on his authority, as with ج. (TA.) سَحَمٌ: see سُحْمَةٌ.

A2: A sort of tree; (S, K;) like ↓ سَحْمَآءُ: (S:) the latter also signifies a sort of tree: (K:) the former is said by ISk to be a certain plant: and by AHn, to be a plant that grows like the نَصِىّ and صِلِّيَان and عَنْكَث, except that it is taller; the سَحَمَة [i. e. the single plant of this species] being sometimes as tall as a man, and larger. (TA.) A3: Also Iron: (IAar, K:) n. un. with ة; meaning a lump, or piece, of iron. (IAar, TA.) سُحُمٌ [a pl. of which the sing. is not mentioned,] The blacksmith's hammers. (IAar, K.) سُحْمَةٌ Blackness; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ سَحَمٌ, [mentioned above as inf. n. of سَحِمَ,] and ↓ سُحَامٌ; (K;) like [سُخْمَةٌ and] سَخَمٌ: (TA in art. سخم:) a blackness like the colour of the crow to which the epithet ↓ أَسْحَمُ is applied. (Lth, TA.) سُحَامٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

سُحَيْمٌ: see the next following paragraph.

أَسْحَمُ Black; (S, Msb, K;) like أَسْخَمُ; (TA in art. سخم;) applied to the crow; see سُحْمَةٌ: (Lth, TA:) fem. سَحْمَآءُ; (Msb, TA;) applied to a plant of that colour; (ISk, TA;) and particularly to the نَصِىّ when it is of that colour, and thus applied as an intensive epithet; and to a woman in the same sense: (TA:) and ↓ إِسْحِمَانٌ signifies anything black (ISd, K) accord. to some; but this is a mistake, for it is only أَسْحَمُ. (ISd, TA.) b2: [Hence,] الأَسْحَمُ is the name of A certain idol, (K, TA,) which was black. (TA.) b3: and The night. (TA.) b4: [Hence likewise,] أَسْحَمُ signifies also Clouds (سَحَابٌ): (S, K:) or, as some say, black clouds: and سَحْمَآءُ signifies a black cloud. (TA.) b5: Also Blood into which are dipped the hands of persons swearing, one to another; (K;) or blood into which the hand is dipped on the occasion of swearing with another or others: said to have this meaning in the saying of El-Aashà, رَضِيعَىْ لِبَانِ ثَدْىِ أُمٍّ تَحَالَفَا بِأَسْحَمَ دَاجٍ عَوْضُ لَا تَتَفَرَّقُ [Two foster-brothers by the sucking of the breast of one mother swore together, by dark blood into which they dipped their hands, that you, or they, i. e. a tribe (قَبِيلَة) or a company of men (جَمَاعَة), for, without the context, the meaning is doubtful, should not ever become separated]: or it has here one, or another, of three meanings here following. (S.) b6: The womb. (S.) b7: The nipple of a woman's breast: (K:) or the blackness of the nipple of a woman's breast. (S.) b8: A skin such as is termed زِقّ for wine: (S, K:) because of its blackness: and ↓ سُحَيْمٌ also signifies a زِقّ (TA.) b9: Also A horn: (S, K:) thus in the saying of Zuheyr, وَتَذَبِيبُهَا عَنْهُ بِأَسْحَمَ مِذْوَدِ [And the frequent repelling of her, or them, from him with a horn; so that مذود is merely an explicative adjunct, for it also means a horn, or it may be rendered here an instrument for repel-ling]: (S, * TA:) or [اسحم is here an epithet, and] the meaning is, with a black horn. (TA.) Another poet uses the phrase تَذُبُّ بِسَحْمَاوَيْنِ.

[so in the TA, app. a mistranscription for تَذُبُّ,] i. e., [reading تَذُبُّ, She repels] with a pair of horns; using the fem, as meaning بِصِيصيَتَيْنِ; as though he said بِصِيصِيتَيْنِ سَحْمَاوَيْنِ [with two black horns]. (IAar, TA.) b10: The fem., السَّحْمَآءُ also signifies The دُبُر [here meaning anus]: (K:) because of its colour. (TA.) b11: For another signification of the fem., see سَحَمٌ.

أُسْحُمَانٌ Of the colour termed أُدْمَةٌ [here app. meaning tawniness] in an intense degree. (TA.) b2: Also A sort of tree. (M, K.) A poet uses the phrase الأُسْحُمَانُ الأَسْحَمُ [The black, or dark, اسحمان]. (M, TA.) إِسْحِمَانٌ: see أَسْحَمُ, first sentence.

1 وَحَدَ, aor. ـِ (T, L, Msb;) and وَحِدَ, (Lh, M, L, K,) aor. ـْ (Lh) and يَحِدُ; (K;) with the latter aor. , like وَرِثَ, aor. ـِ but وَحِدَ with this aor. is not mentioned by the lexicologists or grammarians [except F]; (MF;) [and its aor. is therefore probably يَوْحَدُ, only, agreeably with analogy, for which reason it seems to be omitted in the M;] and وَحُدَ, (Lh, M, L, Msb, K,) aor. also يَحِدُ; (K;) but this is without a parallel, and without any authority [except F]; (MF;) or يَوْحَدُ; (L;) [but this is also extr., and is probably a mistake for يَوْحُدُ, which is the form agreeable with analogy;] inf. n. حِدَةٌ (T, M, L, Msb, K) and وَحْدٌ (M, L, K) and وَحَدٌ (L) and وَحْدَةٌ, (L, K,) or وُحْدَةٌ, (as in some copies of the K and in the TA) and وُحُودٌ (K) and وَحَادَةٌ (M, L, Msb, K) and وُحُودَةٌ; (K;) He, or it, was, or became, alone, by himself or itself, apart from others; (T, L, Msb;) as also [↓ إِتَّحَدَ; and ↓ توحّد; and] ↓ استوحد; (A:) he was, or became, alone, without anyone to cheer him by his society, company, or conversation: (L:) he remained alone, by himself, apart from others; (Lh, M, L, K;) as also ↓ توحّد. (M, L, K.) See also 5, below.2 وحّدهُ, (inf. n. تَوْحِيدٌ, K,) He made it one; or called it one: (K:) like as one says ثَنَاهُ, and ثَلَّثَهُ: (S, L:) as also أَحَّدَهُ. (TA.) Similar verbs are formed from the other nouns significant of numbers, to عَشَرَةٌ. (Esh-Sheybánee, K.) b2: وحّد لِامْرَأَتِهِ, or عِنْدَهَا, He remained one night with his wife: and in like manner the verb is used in relation to any saying or action. (TA, voce سَبَّعَ.) b3: وحّد اللّٰهَ, inf. n. تَوْحِيدٌ, He asserted, or declared, God to be one: he asserted, declared, or preferred belief in, the unity of God: as also احّدهُ. (T, L.) b4: التَّوْحِيدُ The belief in God alone; (L, K;) in his unity. (L.) 4 اوحد اللّٰهُ جَانِبَهُ [God rendered him solitary]; i. e., he remained alone; (K;) or was made to remain alone. (L.) b2: اوحدهُ لِلْأَعْدَآءِ He left him [alone] to the enemies. (L, K.) b3: اوحدهُ He (God) made him the unequalled one of his time: (S, L, K:) made him to have no equal. (A.) b4: اوحدهُ النَّاسُ The people left him alone, or by himself. (L.) b5: أَوْحَدْتُهُ بِرُؤْيَتِى, inf. n. إِيحَادٌ, [I singled him by my sight;] I saw none save him. (S, L.) b6: اوحدت She (a ewe) brought forth one only: (S, K:) like

أَفَذَّتْ. (S.) b7: اوحدت بِهِ She (a woman) brought him forth an unequalled one. (L, from a trad.) 5 توحّد اللّٰهُ بِعِصْمَتِهِ, (S,) or توحّدهُ بعصمته, (L, K,) God protected him himself, not committing him to the care of another. (S, L, K.) b2: توحّد بَالأَمْرِ He was, or became, alone, without any to share or participate with him, in the affair. (L.) b3: توحّد بِرَأْيِهِ He was, or became, alone, without any to share, or participate with him, in his opinion. (S, L.) b4: See 1.8 إِوْتَحَدَ [اِتَّحَدَ It was, or became, one. And hence, اِتَّحَدَ مَعَهُ He was, or became, one with him in interests &c.] b2: اتّحد It (a number of things, or substances, two and more, KT,) became one. (KT, KL.) See 1.10 إِسْتَوْحَدَ see 1.

حِدَةٌ: see وَحْدٌ. b2: فَعَلَهُ مِنْ ذَاتِ حِدَتِهِ, and عَلَى ذات حدته, and من ذِى حدته, and من ذات نَفْسِهِ, and من ذات رَأْيِهِ, He did it of himself; of his own accord; of his own judgment. (Az, L, K.) وَحْدٌ: see 1, and وَحِيدٌ. b2: رَأَيْتُهُ وَحْدَهُ (S, L, K) I saw him alone. (S, L.) وحد is here an inf. n., having no dual nor pl. (K.) The Koofees hold it to be in the acc. case as an adv. n. of place: the Basrees, as an inf. n., in every instance; as though thou saidst أَوْحَدْتُهُ بِرُؤْيَتِى إِبحَادًا, meaning “ I saw none save him,” and then substituted وحده: or, as Abu-l-'Abbás says, it may mean the man's being himself alone; as though thou saidst رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًــا مُنْفَرِدًا اِنْفِرَادًا, and then substituted وحده. (S.) Or it is in the acc. case as a denotative of state accord. to the Basrees [and the grammarians in general]; not as an inf. n., J being in error in what he says on this matter: (IB, K:) the Basrees hold it to be a noun occupying the place of an inf. n. in the acc. case as a denotative of state; like جَآءَ زَيْدٌ رَكْضًا, meaning رَاكِضًا: (IB:) excepting some of them, as Yoo, who holds it to be in the acc. case as an adv. n. of place, for عَلَى وَحْدِهِ, (IB, K,) like عِنْدَهُ: (TA:) and there is a third opinion, that of Hishám; that it is in the acc. case as an inf. n. (L.) Or, (accord. to IAar, L,) it is a noun used as a noun absolutely: (L, K:) so in the dial. of the Benoo-Temeem: (Msb:) you say جَلَسَ وَحْدَهُ, and عَلَى وَحْدِهِ, and جَلَسَا عَلَى وَحْدِ هِمَا, and وَحْدَيْهِمَا, and جَلَسُوا عَلَى وَحْدِهِمْ, [He sat alone, and they two sat alone, and they sat alone]. (L, K.) When not preceded by a prefixed n. [or a prep.], it is always in the acc. case: (Lth, L:) you say, لَا إِلَاَه إِلَّا اللّٰهُ وَحْدَهُ [There is no deity but God alone]: and مَرَرْتُ بِزَيْدٍ وَحْدَهُ [I passed by Zeyd alone]: (L:) [excepting in a few cases, such as the phrases]

قُلْنَا هٰذَا الأَمْرَ وَحْدَيْنَا [We two alone said this thing], and قَالَتَاهُ وَحْدَيْهُمَا [They two women alone said it]; mentioned by Az. (L.) Yousay also, هٰذَا عَلَى وَحْدِهِ, and ↓ عَلَى حِدَتِهِ, This is by itself; (L, K;) and هُمَا عَلَى حِدَتِهِمَا They two are by themselves: and هُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِمْ They are by themselves: (L:) and أَعْطِ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ

مَنْهُمْ عَلَى حِدَتِهِ Give thou to every one of them by himself; syn. على حِيَالِهِ. (S.) The ة in حِدَةٌ is a substitute for the و (S, L) which is cut off from the beginning. (L.) b3: وَحْدٌ, (K,) or ↓ وَحَدٌ, (L,) A wild animal alone, by itself, or apart from others. (L, K.) b4: وَحَدٌ, (K,) or ↓ وَحَدٌ, (L,) A man whose lineage and origin are unknown. (Lth, L, K.) b5: وَحْد is used as the complement of a prefixed n. only in the following phrases: (A'Obeyd, S, L:) هُوَ نَسِيجُ وَحْدِهِ, which is an expression of praise; (S, L, K;) meaning, (tropical:) He is one unequalled; one who has no second: (L:) or he is a man of right judgment: you say also هُمَا نَسِيجَا وَحْدِهِمَا, and هُمْ نُسَجَآءُ وَحْدِهِمْ, and هِىَ نَسِيجَةُ وَحْدِهَا, and هُنَّ نَسَائِجُ وَحْدِهِنَّ: (Lth, L:) [see art. نسج:] it is as though you said نَسِيجُ إِفْرَادٍ: you put وحده in the place of an inf. n. in the gen. case: (S:) and رَجُلُ وَحْدِهِ, (IAar, L,) and رُجَيْلُ وَحْدِهِ, (S, L,) [A man unequalled; who has no second, and a little man (probably meaning the contr.) &c.]: and قَرِيعُ وَحْدِهِ A man with whom no one contends in excellence: (Lth, L:) and عُيَيْرُ وَحْدِهِ, and جُحَيْشُ وَحْدِهِ, which are expressions of dispraise; (S, L, K;) meaning, (tropical:) One who does not consult, nor mix with, any one, and who is contemptible and weak: (Sh, L:) وَحْد being used in the manner of an inf. n., not being an epithet nor an enunciative so as to be in concordance with the preceding noun, would be more properly in the acc. case; but the Arabs use it in these instances as the complement of a prefixed n.: (Lth, L:) these expressions are indeterminate: for the Arabs say, رُبَّ نَسِيجِ وَحْدِهِ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ (tropical:) [Few unequalled men have I seen]. (Hishám, Fr., L.) وَحَدٌ: see وَحْدٌ and وَحِيدٌ.

وَحِدٌ: see وَحِيدٌ.

وَحْدَةٌ The state of being alone, or apart from others; solitariness; solitude. (Sb, S.) See 1. b2: وَحْدَةُ القَبْرِ [The solitude of the grave]. (A.) b3: [لَيْلَةُ الوَحْدَةِ The night of solitude; the first night after burial: so called because the soul is believed to remain in the grave during this night, and then to depart to the place appointed for the residence of good souls until the last day, or to the appointed prison in which wicked souls await their final doom. See also لَيْلَةٌ الوَحْشَةِ.]

وَحْدَانِيَّةٌ The unity of God: (L, K: *) as also أَحْدِيَّةٌ. (Msb.) وَحْدَانِيٌّ One who is singular in his religious opinions; who separates himself from the general body of believers: a rel. n. from الوَحْدَةُ; the ا and ن being added to give intensiveness to the signification. (L.) وُحَادَ: see مَوْحَدَ.

وَحِيدٌ (S, L, Msb, K) and ↓ مُتَوَحِّدٌ (L, K) and ↓ وَحَدٌ and ↓ وَحِدٌ (S, L, Msb, K) and ↓ وَحْدٌ (M, L) and ↓ وَاحِدٌ (L) A man alone; by himself; apart from others; solitary; lonely: (S, M, L, Msb, K;) as also أَحَدٌ: (M, L, K:) or, accord. to Az, one should not say رَجُلٌ أَحَدٌ, nor دِرْهَمٌ أَحَدٌ, nor شَىْءٌ أَحَدٌ, though some of the lexicologists assert that أَحَدٌ is originally وَحَدٌ: for أَحَدٌ is an epithet applied to God alone: (L:) the fem. epithet used in this sense is وَحِدَةٌ: (K:) and ↓ وَاحِدٌ in this sense receives the dual form: and the pl. is وُحْدَانٌ and أَحْدَانٌ and وِحَادٌ. (L.) رَجُلٌ وَحِيدٌ A man who has no one to cheer him by his society, conversation, or company. And ↓ رَجُلٌ مُتَوَحِّدٌ A man who remains alone, by himself, apart from others, or solitary, not mixing with other people, not sitting with them. (L.) See also وَحْدٌ.

وَاحِدٌ One; the first of the numbers: (S, L, Msb, K:) syn. [in many cases, which will be shown below,] with أَحَدٌ: (K:) [and one alone: a single person or thing:] fem. وَاحِدَةٌ: (L, Msb:) it sometimes receives the dual form; (L, K;) as in the expression إِلْتَقَيْنَا وَاحِدَيْنِ [We met, we being each of us one alone]; cited from a poet by IAar: or the dual form pertains to it in another sense, explained below, namely “ alone: ” (L:) pl. وَاحِدُونَ (S, L, K) and وُحْدَانٌ and أُحْدَانٌ; (S, L;) in the last of which, أ is substituted for و because of the dammeh: (L:) one says, أَنْتُمْ حَىٌّ وَاحِدٌ, and حَىٌّ وَاحِدُونَ, (Ye are one tribe, L) like as one says شِرْذِمَةٌ قَلِيلُونَ: (Fr, S, L:) آحَادٌ may also be a pl. of وَاحِدٌ [and therefore originally أَوْحَادٌ,] like as أَشْهَادٌ is pl. of شَاهِدٌ. (Th, Msb.) Its proper signification is A thing having no subdivision: and it is secondarily applied to any existing thing; so that there is no number to which it may not be applied as an epithet; wherefore one says, عَشَرَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ [One ten], and مِائَةٌ وَاحِدَةٌ [One hundred]. (Er-Rághib.) It is interchangeable for أَحَدٌ when used as an epithet applied to God; and in certain nouns of number. [See art. أحد.] In most cases differing from these two, there is a difference in usage. The latter is used in affirmative phrases as a prefixed noun only, governing the noun which follows it in the gen. case; and is used absolutely in negative phrases: whereas the former is used in affirmative phrases as a prefixed n. and otherwise. (Msb.) [See, again, art. أَحد.] b2: ↓ لَسْتُ فِى هٰذَا الأَمْرِ بأَوِْحَدَ I am not alone, without a parallel, or watch, in this affair: (S, * L, K: *) or simply, I am not alone in it. (T, L.) The fem. وَحْدَآءُ is not used. (S, L.) b3: أُحْدَانٌ, the pl. of ↓ اوحد, is applied by a poet to dogs having no equals or matches. (S, L.) b4: فُلَانٌ لَا وَاحِدَ لَهُ Such a one has no equal, like, parallel, or match. (S, M, L.) b5: Also, One that has no equal; one unequalled. (L.) b6: فُلَانٌ وَاحِدُ دَهْرِهِ Such a person is the unequalled one of his age. (S, L.) And in like manner, (TA,) أَهْلِ زَمَانِهِ ↓ فُلَانٌ أَوْحَدُ (S, L) Such a person is the unequalled one of the people of his time. (TA.) The pl. of ↓ اوحد [as well as of واحد in the same sense] is أُحْدَانٌ, (originally وُحْدَانٌ, S) like as سُودَانٌ is pl. أَسْوَدُ. (S, L.) b7: وَاحِدُ أُمِّهِ [An unequalled son of his mother], is an indeterminate expression, like نَسِيجُ وَحْدِهِ, q. v. (Hishám, Fr. L.) b8: Also, A man pre-eminent in knowledge or science, or in valour in war, (L, K [in the CK, for بَأْس is put ناس]) or in other qualities; as though having no equal, and thus being alone: (L:) pl. وُحْدَانٌ and أُحْدانٌ. (L, K.) b9: الوَاحِدُ and الأَحَدُ (T, L) and ↓ الأَوْحَدُ and ↓ المُتَوَحِّدُ, (M, L, K,) epithets applied to God, The One, the Sole; He whose attribute is unity: (M, L, K:) or the first signifies the One in essence, who has no like nor equal; and the second, the One in attributes, beside whom there is no other: or the first, the One who is not susceptible of division into parts or portions, nor of duplication, and who has no equal nor like: (TL:) or the One who has ever been alone, without companion: (IAth, L:) and there is no being but God to whom the first and second of these epithets are applicable together, or to whom the second is applicable alone. (T, L.) See also أَحَدٌ, in art. أحد. b10: الإِنْسَانُ وَالفَرَسُ وَاحِدٌ فِى الجِنْسِ The human being and the horse are one in genus. And زَيْد وَعَمرْوٌ وَاحِدٌ فِى النَّوْعِ Zeyd and 'Amr are one in species. (Er-Rághib.) b11: وَاحِدٌ Singular, as opposed to plural: pl. وُحْدَانٌ. (The lexicons, passim.) b12: أَصْحَابِى وَأَصْحَابُكَ وَاحِدٌ [Thy companions and my companions are one and the same]. And الجُلُوسُ وَالقُعُود وَاحِدٌ [الجلوس and القعود are one and the same]. (L.) b13: See وَحِيدٌ. b14: حَادِىَ عَشَرَ, masc., and حَادِيَةَ عَشْرَةَ, fem., Eleventh. In this case, [and in similar instances, as حَادِى وَعِشْرُونَ Twentyfirst, &c.,] حادى and حادية are formed by transposition from وَاحِدٌ and وَاحِدَةٌ, by putting the first radical letter after the second. [When without the article, it is indecl.: but when rendered determinate by the article, the first word is decl.] You say, هُوَ حَادِىَ عَشَرَهُمْ [He is the eleventh of them]: and اليَوْمُ الحَادِى عَشَرَ [The eleventh day]: and اللَّيْلَةُ الحَادِيَةُ عَشْرَةَ [The eleventh night]. (ISd, L.) [The rules respecting حَادِىَ عَشَرَ and its fem. are the same as those respecting ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and its fem., explained in art. ثلث, q. v.] b15: بِوَاحِدَةٍ signifies i. q. فَقَطْ: and is often used in the sense of البَتَّةَ. (MF, voce ذُرُّوحٌ.) إِحْدَى: see art. أحد.

أُحَادَ: see مُوْحَدَ.

أَوْحَدُ: see وَاحِدٌ.

مُوحِدٌ A ewe bringing forth, or that brings forth, one ewe only. (S, K.) [See مُغْرِدٌ.]

مَوْحَدَ and ↓ وُحَادَ and أُحَادَ [used adverbially] are imperfectly decl. because of their having the quality of an epithet and deviating from their original form, (S, L,) which is وَاحِدًا: (L, K:) or because they differ from their original both as to the letter and the meaning; the original word being changed as above stated, and the meaning being changed to وَاحِدًا وَاحِدًا: (S, L:) you say دَخَلُوا مَوْحَدَ مَوْحَدَ, (S, L, K,) [and وُحَادَ وُحَادَ,] and أُحَادَ أُحَادَ, (L, K,) They entered one [and] one, [one and one]; or one [by] one, [one by one]; (K;) or one at a time; one after another. (S, L.) مُوَحَّدَةٌ, (not مُوحَدَةٌ,) conv. term in lexicology, Having one diacritical point; one-pointed: an epithet added to باء to prevent its being mistaken for تاء, ثاء, or ياء. (The lexicons, passim.)]

مِيحَادٌ One of several hills, such as are called أَكَمَات, separate or remote, one from another: pl. مَوَاحِيدُ. (L, K.) F remarks, that J is in error in saying, المِيحَادُ مِنَ الوَاحِدِ كَالمِعْشَارِ مِنَ العَشَرَةِ: (TA:) but the meaning of this is, that it denotes one part or portion; like as مِعْشَارٌ signifies one of ten: (L:) [i. e., the former signifies one of several things whereof each is alone, or by itself:] and the same explanation is given by [several] old authors. (TA.) [In one copy of the S, instead of العَشَرَة, I find العُشْر; which affords a good sense, i. e., that ميحاد, is syn. with وَاحِدٌ; and may be the true reading.]

مُتَوَحِّدٌ: see وَحِيدٌ and وَاحِدٌ.

وتر

1 وَتَرَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وَتْرٌ; (Msb;) and ↓ اوترهُ; (S, Msb, K;) He made it, (a number, Msb,) sole; or one, and no more: syn. أَفَذَّهُ, (S, K,) or أَفْرَدَهُ. (Msb.) It is said that the latter verb only is used in relation to a number; but both are said to be thus used in the M [as well as in the Msb.] (TA.) b2: [And He made it to be an odd number.] You say, وَتَرَ القَوْمَ, (M, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. وَتْرٌ; (M;) and ↓ أَوْتَرَهُمْ; (M, K;) He made the people, they being an even number, to be an odd number. (M, K, TA.) 'Atà says, كَانَ القَوْمُ وِتْرًا فَشَفَعْتُهُمْ وَكَانُوا شَفْعًا فَوَتَرْتُهُمْ [The people were an odd number and I made them an even number, and they were an even number and I made them an odd number]. (TA.) You say also, وَتَرَ الصَّلَاةَ, (Msb, K,) and ↓ أَوْتَرَهَا, (T, S, Msb, K,) and ↓ وَتَّرَهَا, (K,) and فِىالصَّلَاةِ ↓ أَوْتَرَ, (Lh, M,) He made the prayer to be such as is termed وِتْر [i. e., to consist of an odd number of rek'as; as is done in the case of a prayer which is performed in the night, consisting of three rek'ahs, and particularly called صَلَاةُ الوِتْرِ]; (S, * Msb, K; *) he performed prayers of double rek'ahs, two and two together, and then performed the prayer of one rek'ah at the end, making what he performed an odd number: (T:) and ↓ أَوْتَرَ, alone, signifies he performed the prayer called الوِتْر [explained above]; (T, M, A, Mgh, K;) or he performed prayers of [an odd number of rek'ahs,] two and two together, and then a single rek'ah at the end. (TA.) It is said in a trad. إِنَّ اللّٰهَ وِتْرٌ يُحِبُّ الوِتْرَ فَأَوْتِرُوا يَا أَهْلَ الْقُرْآنِ [Verily God is one only: He loveth the odd number: therefore perform ye the prayer of an odd number of rek'ahs, O people of the Kur-án]. (T.) And in another trad., إِذَا اسْتَجْمَرْتَ فَأَوْتِرْ When thou employest stones in the purification termed إِسْتِنْجَآء, use an odd number; (TA;) i. e. use three stones for that purpose, or five, or seven, and not an even number. (T.) A2: وَتَرَهُ, (T, S, A, Mgh,) aor. ـِ inf. n. وَتْرٌ (S,) and وِتْرٌ and تِرَةٌ, (T, S,) He slew his relation, and so separated him from him, and rendered him solitary: (A, Mgh:) or he slew a person belonging to him, or related to him, without the latter's obtaining revenge, or retaliation, for the blood of the slain: (S:) or he slew a person belonging to him, or related to him; or took property belonging to him. (T.) It is also doubly trans.: you say, وَتَرَ فُلَانٌ فُلَانًا أَهْلَهُ Such a one committed a crime against such a one by slaying his family; or by taking them away: (T:) and وَتَرَةُ مَالَهُ (T, M, K) (assumed tropical:) he committed a crime against him by taking away his property: (T:) or (assumed tropical:) he made him to suffer loss or detriment in respect of his property; or he deprived him of it in part, or altogether; syn. نَقَصَهُ إِيَّاهُ: (T, * M, K:) and وَتَرَهُ حَقَّهُ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb,) aor. as above, (Msb,) (tropical:) he made him to suffer loss or detriment in respect of his right or due; or he abridged him, or deprived him, or defrauded him, of it partially, or wholly; syn. نقصهُ. (S, Mgh, Msb.) It is said in a trad., مَنْ فَاتَتْهُ صَلَاةُ العَصْرِ فَكَأَنَّمَا وُتِرَ أَهْلَهُ وَمَالَهُ (T, M, * Msb, * TA) By whomsoever the prayer of the afternoon passeth unobserved, he is as though he had his family slain and his property taken away: or as though he had his family and his property taken away: (T:) or as though he were deprived (نُقِصَ) of his family and his property, (T, M, Msb, TA,) and remained alone: (T, TA:) the loss of the family and property is thus likened to the loss of the recompense: اهله and ماله being in the accus. case as objective complements: (Msb:) اهله is a second objective complement: for the first is understood, as implied in the verb: but if we read أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ, accord. to another relation, اهله supplies the place of the agent, nothing being understood, and the family and property are the objects to which the loss is made to relate. (TA.) And it is said in another trad., مَنْ جَلَسَ مَجْلِسًا لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اللّٰهَ فِيهِ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ تِرَةً (assumed tropical:) He who sitteth in an assembly in which God is not mentioned is obnoxious to detriment, or loss: or, as some say, to a claim of reparation for wrongful conduct. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [xlvii. 37,] وَلَنَ يَتِرَكُمْ أَعْمَالَكُمْ (assumed tropical:) and He will not deprive you of aught of the recompence of your deeds: (Zj, T:) or will not make you to suffer loss in respect of your deeds; like as you say دَخَلْتُ البَيْتَ, meaning دَخَلْتُ فِى

البَيْتِ. (S.) b2: [Also,] وَتَرَهُ, (M, K,) aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. وَتْرٌ (M, K) and وِتْرٌ (TA) and تِرَةٌ, (M, K,) He executed blood-revenge upon him: or did so wrongfully: (M, * K, * TK:) expl. by أَصَابَهُ بِذَحْلٍ. (TK.) b3: He overtook him (أَدْرَكَهُ) with some displeasing, or abominable, or evil, action. (M, K.) b4: He frightened him; terrified him. (Fr, K.) A3: وَتَرَ القَوْسَ: see 2, in two places.2 وتّر الصَّلَاةَ: see 1, near the beginning.

A2: وتّر القَوْسَ He fastened, bound, firmly, or braced, the string of the bow; expl. by شَدَّ وَتَرَهَا; (Lh, M, K;) as also ↓ أَوْتَرَهَا; (Lh, M, Msb;) both these signify the same; (S, in which the meaning is not explained;) and ↓ وَتَرَهَا, (M, TA,) inf. n. وَتْرٌ: (TA:) or ↓ اوترها signifies he put to it a string: (M, K:) and ↓ وَتَرَهَا, (M, K,) aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. تِرَةٌ, (TA,) he attacked to it its string: (M, K:) this, accord. to some, is the proper signification of the last. (M.) It is said in a proverb, إِنْبَاضٌ بِغَيْرِ تَوْتِيرٍ [Twanging the bow without bracing the string]: (S:) or لَا تُعْجِلِ الإِنْبَاضَ قَبْلَ التَّوْتِيرِ [Hasten not the twanging of the bow before the bracing of the string]: alluding to the hastening a thing before its proper time. (M.) [See also art. نبض. And see 2 in arts. جنب and حنب.]3 واتر بَيْنَ أَخْبَارِهِ, (A, and so in some copies of the K,) or ↓ أَوْتَرَ, (M, and so in some copies of the K,) and بين كُتُبِهِ, (M,) and واتر أَخْبَارَهُ, (M, K; in the latter of which وَاتَرَهُ is put by mistake for وَاتَرَهَا, as is observed in the TA,) and كُتُبَهُ, (M, A, K,) inf. n. مُوَاتَرَةٌ (S, M, K,) and وِتَارٌ, (M, K,) He made his tidings, or narrations, and his writings, or letters, to follow one another: (M, A, K:) or with some intervals between them; for مواترة between things is only when there is some interval between them; otherwise it is مُدَارَكَةٌ and مُوَاصَلَةٌ: (S, K:) or واتر الكُتُبَ signifies he made the writings, or letters, to follow one another nearly, one by one, without ceasing: (S:) or he made them to follow one another with a small interval between every two: (T:) and وَاتر الخَبَرَ he made the tidings, or narration, to follow one part after another: or, accord. to As, with a small space between every two portions thereof: from وِتْرٌ in the sense of فَرْدٌ. (T.) Yousay also وَاتر بَيْنَ مِيَرِهِمْ He made their supplies of wheat to come to them without stopping; time after time. (TA, from a trad.) And it is said in a trad., لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يُوَاتِرَ قَضَآءَ رَمَضَانَ There will be no harm in his performing the fast of Ramadán at intervals, fasting one day and breaking fast one day: (TA:) مُوَاتَرَةُ الصَّوْمِ is the fasting one day and breaking fast one day, or two; performing it separately: it does not mean المُوَاصَلَةُ, because it is from الوِتْرُ, (S, K, TA,) i. e., الفَرْدُ. (TA.) 4 أَوْتَرَ see 1, in seven places, first part. b2: اوتر بَيْنَ أَخْبَارِهِ: see 3.
