You say also, مَا بَلَغَ ↓ لَزِمَهُ ذٰلِكَ بَالِغًا with the accus. case as a denotative of state; meaning [That clave to him, or adhered to him, &c.,] rising to its highest degree or point; from بَلَغَ المَنْزِلَ, explained above. (Msb.) [But مَا بَلَغَ ↓ بَالِغًا more frequently means Whatever point, degree, amount, sum, quantity, number, or the like, it may reach, attain, arrive at, come to, or amount to.] And ↓ بَلَغَ فُلَانٌ مَبْلَغَهُ and ↓ مَبْلَغَتُهُ [Such a one reached, or attained, his utmost point or scope or degree]. (TA.) And ↓ بَلَغَ فِى العِلْمِ المَبَالِغَ [He attained, in knowledge, or science, the utmost degrees of proficiency]. (TA.) And بَلَغَ فِى

↓ مَبْلَغًا [He attained a consummate degree of goodliness]: said of a boy that has attained to puberty. (O, TA.) And بَلَغَ غَايَتَهُ فِى الطَّلَبِ [He did his utmost, or used his utmost power or ability, in seeking to attain an object]. (Msb in art. جهد.) And بَلَغَ أَقْصَى مَجْهُودِ بَعِيرِهِ فِى السَّيْرِ [He exerted the utmost endeavour, or effort, or power, or strength, of his camel, in journeying]. (S in art. نكث.) And بَلَغَ جَهْدَ دَابَّتِهِ i. q. جَهَدَهَا [He jaded, harassed, distressed, fatigued, or wearied, his beast]: (K in art. جهد:) and in like manner, بَلَغَ مَشَقَّتَهُ and بَلَغَ مِنْهُ المَشَقَّةَ i. q. جَهَدَهُ [and شَقَّ عَلَيْهِ, i. e. He, or it, jaded him, harassed him, &c.; ditressed him, afflicted him, oppressed him, overpowered him: thus in each of these instances, as in many similar cases, the verb with the inf. n. that follows is equivalent to the verb of that inf. n.]. (Msb in art. جهد.) [And, elliptically, بَلَغَ مِنْهُ i. q. بَلَغَ مِنْهُ المشَقَّةَ , explained above: and often meaning It took, or had, an effect upon him; it affected him: frequently said of wine and the like: and of a saying; as in the Ksh and Bd in iv. 66, where يَبْلُغُ مِنْهُمْ is followed by وَيُؤَثِرُ فِيهِ as an explicative: see also بَلِيغٌ.] and بَلَغْتَ مِنَّا البُلَغِينَ, (S, K,) and البِلَغِينَ, and كُلَّ مَبْلَغٍ: (K:) see البُلَغِينَ below. And بَلَغْتُ مِنَ الأَمْرِ المَشَقَّةَ [I experienced distress from the affair, or event]. (TA in art. مض.) [See also an ex. voce إِبِدٌ. بَلَغَنِى also signifies It has come to my knowledge, or been related to me, or been told me; or it came to my knowledge, &c.: and in this case it is generally followed by أَنَّ, or by أَنْ as a contraction of أَنَّ: for exs., see these two particles. And in like manner, بَلَغَنِى عَنْهُ Information has come to me, or information came to me, from him, or concerning him, that such a thing has happened, or had happened.] And بَلَغَ said of a letter or writing, inf. n. بَلَاغٌ and بُلُوغٌ, It reached, arrived, or came. (Msb.) And said of a plant, or of herbage, It attained its full growth: (TA:) and of a tree, such as a palm-tree &c., its fruit became ripe: (AHn, TA:) and of fruit, it became ripe. (Msb.) Also, said of a boy, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـُ inf. n. بُلُوغٌ, or, as IKoot says, بَلَاغٌ, (Msb,) He attained to puberty, virility, ripeness, or maturity; syn. أَدْرَكَ, (T, S, Msb, K,) and اِحْتَلَمَ; (M, Msb;) and attained a consummate degree of goodliness (بَلَغَ مِنَ الجَوْدَةِ مَبْلَغًا): (O, TA:) as though he attained the time of the writing of his marriage-contract, and of his having duties or obligations imposed upon him: (TA:) and in like manner one says of a girl, بَلَغَ, (T, TA,) or بَلَغَتْ. (TA.) b2: بَلَغَ اللّٰهُ بِهِ [God caused him to reach, attain, arrive at, or come to, his appointed end, or term of life; أَجَلَهُ, or the like, being understood]. (TA.) You say, بَلَغَ اللّٰهُ بِكَ أَكْلَأَ العُمُرِ, i. e. [May God cause thee to reach, or attain,] the extreme, or most distant, period of life! (S and TA in art. كلأ.) And فَعَلْتُ بِهِ مَا بَلَغَ بِهِ الأَذَى وَ المَكْرُوهْ [I did with him that which caused him to come to what was annoying, or hurtful, and evil]. (TA.) And بَلَغَ بِهِ البِلَغِينَ: see the last word of this phrase below. b3: بُلِغَ, like عُنِىَ, He (a man) was, or became, jaded, harasssed, distressed, fatigued, or wearied. (K.) A2: بَلُغَ, [aor. ـُ (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. بَلَاغَةٌ, (S, Msb,) He was, or became بَلِيغ, i. e. فَصِيح [more properly signifying chaste, or perspicuous, in speech, but here meaning eloquent]; (S, * Msb, K;) and sharp, or penetrating, or effective, in tongue; (Msb;) attaining, by his speech, or diction, the utmost scope of his mind and desire. (K, * TA.) The difference between بَلَاغَةٌ and فَصَاحَةٌ is this: that the latter is an attribute of a single word and of speech and of the speaker; but the former is an attribute only of speech and the speaker: (Kull:) بلاغة in the speaker is A faculty whereby one is enabled to compose language suitable to the exigency of the case, i. e., to the occasion of speaking [or writing], with chasteness, or perspicuity, or eloquence, thereof: in language, it is suitableness to the exigency of the case, i. e., to the occasion of speaking [or writing], with chasteness or perspicuity, or eloquence, thereof. (KT.) 2 تَبْلِيغٌ and ↓ إِبْلَاغٌ [inf. ns. of بلّغ and ابلغ] signify The causing to reach, attain, arrive, or come; bringing, conveying, or delivering: (S, K, TA:) the former is the more common. (Er-Rághib, TA.) [You say, بلّغهُ المَكَانَ He caused him, or it, to reach, attain, arrive at, or come to, the place. And بلّغهُ مَقْصُودَهُ He caused him to attain his object of aim or endeavour &c.] and بَلَّغْتُ الرِّسَالَةَ [I brought, conveyed, or delivered, the message]. (S.) And بلّغهُ السَّلَامَ, (Msb,) and الخَبَرَ, (TA,) as also ↓ ابلغهُ, (Msb, TA,) He brought, conveyed, delivered, or communicated, to him the salutation, (Msb,) and he brought, &c., or told, to him the news, or information. (TA.) [and بَلَّغَنِى عَنْ فُلَانٍ He told me from such a one, or on the part of such a one, some piece of information, or that some event had happened, &c.]

A2: بلّغ الفَارِسُ, (S, A, K,) inf. n. تَبْلِيغٌ, (K,) The horseman stretched forth, or extended, his hand, or arm, with the rein of his horse, [or gave the rein to his horse,] in order that he might increase in his running. (S, A, K.) A3: بلّغ الشَّيْبُ فِى رَأْسِهِ Hoariness began to appear on his head; accord. to IAar; as also بلّع, with the unpointed ع: the Basrees assert that the former is a mistranscription; but it is related as heard from Th, by Aboo-Bekr Es-Soolee. (TA.) 3 بالغ, (S, Msb, K, &c.,) inf. n. مُبَالَغَةٌ (JK, K, &c.) and بِلَاغٌ, (K.) He exceeded the usual, or ordinary, or the just, or proper, bounds, or degree, in a thing; acted egregiously, or immoderately, or extravagantly, therein: (KL:) he strove, or laboured; exerted himself, or his power or efforts or endeavours or ability; employed himself vigorously, strenuously, laboriously, sedulously, earnestly, with energy or effectiveness; took pains, or extraordinary pains: (K, TA:) he did not fall short of doing what was requisite, or what he ought; did not flag, or was not remiss: (S, K, TA:) he exerted unsparingly his power or ability, or effort or endeavour, or the utmost thereof: (Msb:) he accomplished, or did, or attained, the utmost of his power or ability, or effort or endeavour; he did his utmost: (JK:) فِى أَمْرٍ [in an affair]: (S, K, TA:) or فِى كَذَا, meaning in the pursuit of such a thing. (Msb.) بالغ فِى كَذَا may be rendered as above, or He did such a thing much, exceedingly, egregiously, extraordinarily, immoderately, extravagantly, excessively, vehemently, energetically, superlatively, excellently, consummately, thoroughly. Hence مُبَالَغَةٌ in explanations of words; meaning Intensiveness; muchness; extraordinariness; excessiveness; vehemence; energy; emphasis; hyperbole; &c.; and sometimes, frequentative signification. Thus, إِسْمُ مُبَالَغَةٍ means A noun of intensiveness; or an intensive epithet: as شَكُورٌ

“ very thankful,” or “ very grateful; ” and حَمَّادٌ

“ a great praiser,” or “ a frequent praiser. ”]4 ابلغ, inf. n. إِبْلَاغٌ: see 2, in two places. [Hence,] ابلغ الأَمْرَ جَهْدَهُ [He brought his utmost power or ability, or effort or endeavour, to the performance, or accomplishment, of the affair]. (TA.) And أَبْلَغْتُ إِلَيْهِ i. e. فَعَلْتُ بِهِ مَا بَلَغَ بِهِ الأَذَى وَ المَكْرُوهَ [I did with him that which caused him to come to what was annoying, or hurtful, and evil]. (TA.) A2: See also 1, first sentence; where it is said that إِبْلَاغٌ is syn. with بُلُوغٌ; but this is app. a mistake.

A3: [مَا أَبْلَغَهُ, and أَبْلِغْ بِهِ, How eloquent is he !].5 تبلّغ المَنْزِلَ He constrained himself to reach, or attain, the place of abode, until, or so that, he did reach [it], or attain [it]. (K.) b2: تبلّغ بِهِ He was satisfied, or content, with it, (S, Msb, K,) and attained his desire [thereby]. (TA.) b3: تَبَلَّغَتْ بِهِ العِلَّةُ The disease, or malady, distressed him; afflicted him; became vehement, or severe, in him. (S, Z, Sgh, K.) 6 تبالغ الدِّبَاغُ فِى الجِلْدِ The tan attained its utmost effect in the skin. (AHn.) And تبالغ فِيهِ الهَّمُ, and المَرَضَ, Anxiety, or disquietude of mind, or grief, attained its utmost degree in him, and so disease, or the disease. (TA.) [This verb seems properly to signify It reached, or attained, by degrees.]

A2: تبالغ فِى كَلَامِهِ He affected eloquence (بَلَاغَة) in his speech, not being of those characterized thereby: [whence] one says, مَا هُوَ بِبَلِيغٍ

وَلٰكِنْ يَتَبَالِغُ [He is not eloquent, but he affects eloquence]. (TA.) بَلْغٌ: see what next follows, in three places: A2: and see بَالِغٌ, in two places: b2: and بَلِيغٌ, in two places.

اللّٰهُمَ سِمْعٌ لَا بِلْغٌ, and ↓ سَمْعٌ لَا بَلْغٌ, (Ks, Fr, S, K,) and ↓ سَمْعًا لَا بَلْغًا, (Ks, S, K,) and سِمْعًا لَا بِلْغًا, (K,) O God, may we hear of it (or may it be heard of, IB) but may it not be fulfilled; (Fr, S, K;) or, may it not reach us, or come to us: said on hearing of a displeasing, or hateful, or an evil, event: (L:) or on hearing tidings not pleasing to one: (Ks, S, K:) or on the coming of tidings not held to be true. (TA.) [See also art. سمع.]

A2: أَحْمَقُ بِلْغٌ, (S, K,) and ↓ بَلْغٌ, and ↓ بَلْغَةٌ, (K,) Stupid, or foolish, but, notwithstanding his stupidity, or foolishness, attaining his desire: (S, K:) or stupid, or foolish, in the utmost degree: (K, TA:) fem. حَمْقَآءُ بِلْغَةٌ. (TA.) b2: رَجُلٌ بِلْغٌ مِلْغٌ (S, * K) A man who is bad, evil, or wicked, (Fr, K,) in the utmost degree. (Fr, TA.) b3: See also بَلِيغٌ.

بِلَغٌ: see بَلِيغٌ.

بَلْغَةٌ: see بِلْغٌ.

بُلْغَةٌ A sufficiency of the means of subsistence, (T, S, Msb, K,) such that nothing remains over and above it: (T, Msb:) and simply a sufficiency; enough; (JK, Msb, TA;) as also ↓ بَلَاغٌ, (JK, S, Msb, K,) meaning a thing that suffices, or contents, and enables one to attain what he seeks; (TA;) and ↓ تَبَلُّغٌ. (JK, Msb, TA.) You say, فِى هٰذَا بُلْغَةٌ, and ↓ بَلَاغٌ, and ↓ تَبَلُّغٌ, In this is a sufficiency, or enough. (Msb, TA.) And it is said in the Kur [xxi. 106], لِقَوْمٍ ↓ إِنَّ فِى هٰذَا لَبَلَاغًا عَابِدِينَ Verily in this is a sufficiency [for a people serving God]: (Bd, TA:) or a means of attaining the object sought after, or desired. (Bd.) بِلَغْنٌ: see بَلَاغَةٌ.

(TA.) البُلَغِينَ, (S,) or البِلَغِينَ, (JK,) or both, (K,) Calamity, misfortune, or disaster: (S, K:) or distress, or affliction. (JK.) Hence the saying of 'Áïsheh to 'Alee, (S, K,) when she was taken prisoner [by him], (S,) بَلَغْتَ مِنَّا البُلَغِينَ, (S, K,) and البِلَغِينَ, (K,) i. e., الدَّاهِيَةَ; meaning بَلَغْتَ

↓ مِنَّا كُلَّ مَبْلَغٍ [Thou hast distressed us, or afflicted us, in the utmost degree]: (K:) it is said to mean that the war harassed her, and distressed her in the utmost degree. (TA.) It is like البُرَحِينَ [and البِرَحِينَ] and الأَطْوَرِينَ; all meaning calamities, misfortunes, or disasters: (A'Obeyd, TA:) and is as though they said خَطْبٌ بِلَغٌ [and بُلَغٌ], meaning بَلِيغٌ, and then formed the pl. thus because they considered calamities [as personified, i. e.,] as rational beings having purpose, or design. (IAth, TA.) It is invariably thus, terminating with ى and ن: or one may say in the nom. case البُلَغُونَ, and in the accus. and gen. البُلَغِينَ. (O, K. *) You say also, بَلَغَ بِهِ البِلَغِينَ [lit. He caused him to come, i. e. he brought him, to calamity, misfortune, or disaster, or to distress, or affliction]; meaning he went to the utmost point in reviling him, and annoying him, or molesting him. (IAar, TA.) بَلَاغٌ is a subst. from تَبْلِيغٌ and إِبْلَاغٌ, meaning The bringing, conveyance, delivery, or communication, (S, K, &c.,) of a message [&c.]. (Jel in iii. 19, &c.) [It often occurs in the Kur as meaning The communication, or announcement, of what is revealed.] b2: In a trad., in which it is said, كُلُّ رَافِعَةٍ رَفَعَتْ إِلَيْنَا مِنَ البَلَاغِ, [in the CK رُفِعَتْ علينا,] it means What is communicated, or announced, (مَا بَلَغَ,) of the Kur-án and of the [statutes, or ordinances, &c., termed] سُنَن: or the meaning is, مِنْ ذَوِى البَلَاغِ, i. e., التَّبْلِيغِ, [of those who have the office of communicating, or announcing,] the simple subst. being put in the place of the inf. n.: (K, TA:) but some relate it differently, saying ↓ مِنَ البُلَّاغِ [of the communicators, or announcers,] like حُدَّاث in the sense of مُحَدِّثُون: (TA:) and some say, ↓ مِنَ البِلَاغِ, meaning مِنَ المُبَالِغِينَ فِى التَّبْلِيغِ, i. e. of those who do their utmost in communicating, or announcing. (Hr, K.) [See this trad. cited and explained more fully in the first paragraph of art. رفع.] b3: هٰذَا بَلَاغٌ لِلنَّاسِ, in the Kur [xiv. last verse], means This Kur-án contains a sufficient exposition, or demonstration, for men.

(TA.) Applied to a saying, [&c.,] it also signifies Effectual, or producing an effect. (Ksh and Bd and Jel in iv. 66.) b2: [Also Surpassing in any quality: and superlative.] It is also applied to a calamity or the like [as meaning Great, severe, distressing, or afflictive]. (IAth.) بَلَاغَةٌ i. q. فَصَاحَةٌ, [as meaning Eloquence; (see بَلُغَ, of which it is the inf. n.;)] (S, Msb, *) as also ↓ بِلَغْنٌ. (Seer, TA.) b2: And [the pl.] بَلَاغَاتٌ Slanders, or calumnies.

And ↓ أَمْرُ اللّٰهِ بَلْغٌ, i. e. بَالِغٌ, (S, K,) meaning [The decree of God] reacheth, or attaineth, its intended object: (K:) from the saying in the Kur [lxv. 3], إِنَّ اللّٰهَ بَالِغٌ أَمْرَهُ (S) Verily God attaineth his purpose. (Bd, Jel.) and بَالِغٌ فِى الحُمْقِ Reaching the utmost point, or degree, in stupidity, or foolishness. (TA.) and لَزِمَهُ ذٰلِكَ بَالِغًا مَا بَلَغَ: see 1: and see the sentence there next following it. (Msb.) أَيْمَانٌ بَالِغَةٌ, in the Kur lxviii. 39, means Firm covenants: (Jel:) or covenants confirmed by oaths in the utmost degree: (Bd:) or rendered obligatory for ever; sworn to, that they shall be constantly observed: or that have reached their utmost point: (Th, TA:) or يَمِينٌ بَالِغَةٌ means [an oath, or a covenant,] confirmed. (TA.) b2: Attaining, or having attained, to puberty, virility, ripeness, or maturity; applied to a boy: (T, IKoot, IKtt, Msb:) and in like manner, without ة, applied to a girl; (T, IAmb, Msb, K;) thus applied, with the mention of the noun qualified by it, by Esh-Sháfi'ee (T, Msb) and other chaste persons, of the Arabs; (T, TA;) or بَالِغَةٌ; (IKoot, Msb;) or the latter is also thus applied, with the mention of the noun which it qualifies, (T, Msb, K,) not being wrong because it is the original form; (T, TA;) and seems to be necessarily used when the noun which it qualifies is not mentioned, to prevent ambiguity. (Msb.) b3: A good, a goodly, or an excellent, thing. (S, K.) أَبْلَغُ [More, and most, effectual or efficacious: see بَلِيغٌ]. b2: ثَنَآءٌ أَبْلَغُ i. q. فِيهِ ↓ مُبَالَغٌ [Praise, or eulogy, or commendation, in which the usual, or ordinary, or the just, or proper, bounds are exceeded; such as is egregious, or immoderate, or extravagant; &c.: see 3].

اطَّجَعَ,) the ض in اضطجع being changed into ل, which is the letter nearest in sound thereto, because the combination of two such letters as ض and ط is disliked, (S, L,) the same change occurring in اِلْطِرَادٌ for اِضْطِرَادٌ, (Az, TA,) though this change is anomalous; (L;) and ↓ أَضْجَعَ likewise signifies the same as ضَجَعَ; (Msb;) [and] so does ↓ انضجع, (K, TA,) as quasi-pass. of the trans. verb اضجع. (TA.) b2: [And accord. to Freytag, it occurs in the Deewán of the Hudhalees as signifying He declined from the way.] b3: ضَجَعَ النَّجْمُ means (tropical:) [The star, or asterism, or the Pleiades,] inclined to setting; as also ↓ ضجّع, (K, TA,) inf. n. تَضْجيعٌ.

(Msb.) b4: And hence الإِضَافَةُ as a conventional term of the grammarians; because the first [of two nouns in the case to which it applies] is adjoined to the second: (Msb:) [for] إِضَافَةُ الاِسْمِ إِلَى الاِسْمِ is [The prefixing the noun to the noun so that the former governs the latter in the gen. case] as when you say غُلَامُ زَيْدٍ; in which instance, غلام is termed ↓ مُضَافٌ, and زيد is termed إِلَيْهِ ↓ مُضَافٌ: and this is done for the purpose of particularizing or appropriating, and of making known or definite: therefore the إِضَافَة of a thing to itself [i. e. the prefixing a noun in this manner to one identical therewith in meaning] is not allowable, because a thing does not make known, or definite, itself; (S;) unless by an ellipsis, as when you say حَقُّ اليَقِينِ for حَقُّ الشَّىْءِ اليَقِينِ; or, accord. to Fr, the Arabs used to do so because of the difference of the two words themselves. (S voce جَامِعٌ.) [الإِضَافَةُ is also often used as meaning The state of being prefixed in the manner explained above; or the connection of a noun so prefixed with its complement. The various kinds of إِضَافَة are sufficiently explained in the grammars of De Sacy and others: they are not proper subjects of a lexicon, though much is said respecting them in the O, and more in the Msb. b5: Hence also, بِالإِضَافَةِ إِلَى كَذَا meaning In comparison with (lit. to), or in relation to, (like بِالنِّسْبَةِ إِلَى,) such a thing; as though in juxtaposition to it: a phrase of frequent occurrence: see an ex. in Bd ii. 6.] b6: أَضَفْتُهُ (inf. n. إِضَافَةٌ, Msb) and ↓ ضَيَّفْتُهُ (inf. n. تَضْيِيفٌ, O) both signify the same, (S, M, O, Msb, K,) from الضِّيَافَةُ; (O;) i. e. both signify I made him a guest, or lodged him, or gave him refuge or asylum, syn. أَنْزَلْتُهُ, (S, M, Msb,) with me, as a ضَيْف [or guest], (S,) and entertained him: (S, M, Msb:) أَضَافُوهُ and ↓ ضَيَّفُوهُ both signify أَنْزَلُوهُ: (Mgh:) accord. to Th, أَضَفْتُهُ signifies I lodged him at my abode as a ضَيْف: and I gave him (i. e. one in fear) protection, or refuge or asylum: (Msb:) and ↓ ضَيَّفْتُهُ is also expl. as meaning I fed him: and ↓ ضيّفهُ as meaning he made him to be in the condition of أَضْيَاف [or guests]. (TA.) 5 تَضَيَّفَ intrans.: see 1, first and second sentences. b2: تَضَيُّفٌ signifies also The being collected together. (KL, from the Mj.) b3: And The being a تَابِع [or follower, &c.]. (Id.)

A2: تضايف as said of a valley, [from ضِيفٌ “ a side,”] It became narrow; syn. تَضَايَقَ. (S, M, O.) تَضَايَفْنَ عَلَيْهِ, a phrase used by a poet [describing camels following an old camel], They became near to him, (S, M, O,) by his side. (S, M.) And you say, تضايفهُ القَوْمُ The people, or party, became on both sides of him (بِضِيفَيْهِ). (TA.) And تَضَايفُه السَّبُعَانِ The two beasts of prey hemmed him in on both sides. (TA.) and تَضَايَفَتِ الكِلَابُ الصَّيْدَ and تَضَايَفَتْ عَلَيْهِ [The dogs hemmed in the object of the chase on both sides, or round about]. (TA.) [In the TA, all these are said to be tropical; but why, I see not.]7 انضاف إِلَيْهِ signifies He, or it, became joined, or adjoined, or added, to him, or it: and he joined himself to him: but is perhaps postclassical.]10 إِسْتَضْيَفَ see 1, last sentence. b2: You say also اِسْتَضَافَنِى, meaning He desired me, or asked me, to grant him protection, or refuge. (Msb.) and استضاف فُلَانٌ إِلَى فُلَانٍ Such a one had recourse, or betook himself, to such a one for protection, or refuge. (IAar, M.) ضَيْفٌ A guest: and guests: (MA:) so called because adjoined to the family and fed with them: (Ham p. 124:) it is applied to one, and to a pl. number, (S, M, MA, O, Msb, K,) and to a male and to a female, (S, O, Msb, K,) because it is originally an inf. n.: (MA, Msb:) [as a sing.,] i. q. ↓ مُضَيَّفٌ, (M,) which is syn. with نَزِيلٌ: (TA:) and applied to a pl. number, it may be pl. [or rather a quasi-pl. n.] of ↓ ضَائِفٌ, which is syn. with نَازِلٌ; thus being of the class of زَوْزٌ and صَوْمٌ: (M:) and it is also pluralized, having for its pls. أَضْيَافٌ and ضِيفَانٌ (S, M, MA, O, Msb, K) and ضُيُوفٌ (S, M, MA, O, K) and ضِيَافٌ, (MA, TA,) the first of which is properly a pl. of pauc., but is also used as a pl. of mult.: (M:) and a female is termed ضَيْفَةٌ as well as ضَيْفٌ: (S, M, O, Msb, K:) El-Ba'eeth says, لَقًى حَمَلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَهْىَ ضَيْفَةٌ [A castaway with whom his mother became pregnant while she was a guest]: (S, M, O:) or, accord. to AHeyth, the meaning here is that which follows.

(M.) ضَيْفَنٌ One who comes with a guest: (S, O:) or who so comes intruding without invitation: (K:) or one who follows a guest: derived from ضَيْفٌ, accord. to Sb; but said by Az to belong to art. ضفن: (M:) [accord. to J and Sgh] the ن is augmentative: the pl. is ضَيَافِنُ.

(S, M, O, K.) b2: [And] a subst. from أَضَفْتُهُ and ضَيَّفْتُهُ [as such signifying The entertainment of a guest or guests; i. e. the act of entertaining: and an entertainment as meaning a repast, given to a guest or guests; a banquet, or feast]. (Msb.) [Hence, دَارُ الضِّيَافَةِ The house of entertainment of guests.]

ضَائِفٌ A man alighting as a guest; syn. نَازِلٌ: (M, TA:) see ضَيْفٌ: its [proper] pl. is ضُيَّفٌ. (TA.) مُضَافٌ; and مُضَافٌ إِلَيْهِ: see 4. b2: The former signifies also (tropical:) One who is made an adjunct, or adherent, to a people, or party, (S, M, O, K, TA,) and made to incline to them, (M,) not being of them. (M, TA.) One says, مَا هُوَ إِلَّا مُضَافٌ (tropical:) [He is none other than an adjunct, or adherent]. (TA.) b3: And (tropical:) One whose origin, or lineage, or parentage, is suspected; or who makes a claim to relationship not having it: (O, K, TA:) and (K) whose origin, or relationship, is referred to a people, or party, of whom he is not a member.

(M.) And ↓ مُسْتَضَافٌ signifies the same as مُضَافٌ [app. in the last of the senses expl. above]: so says IB; and he cites the saying of Jowwás Ibn-Heiyán El-Azdee, عِ وَأَحْمِى المُسْتَضَافَا ↓ وَلَقَدْ أَقْدَمُ فِى الرَّوٌ [app. meaning And verily I advance boldly in the case of fear, and I protect him who is constrained to betake himself to a place of refuge].

(M, TA.) مَضِيفٌ a dial. var. of مَصِيفٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) [ISd says that] مَضِيفًا occurring in a verse of Aboo-Dhu-eyb [as some relate it], cited voce كَرَبَةٌ, [where the reading of مَصِيفًا is given,] is for ضَائِفًا, meaning Turning aside; crooked.

1 كَسَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. كَسْبٌ (S, K, Msb) and كِسْبٌ (K), He collected (wealth &c.]; (S, K;) as also ↓ اكتسبهُ. (S.) This is the original signification. (S.) b2: [Hence,] He gained, acquired, or earned, wealth or the like; as also ↓ اكتسب. (Msb.) كَسَبْتُ شَيْئًا and ↓ اكْتَسَبْتُهُ are syn., [signifying I gained a thing]. (S.) b3: Hence [also], كَسَبَ and ↓ اكتسب (S, K, Msb) and ↓ تكسّب (K) He sought, sought after, or sought to gain, sustenance, or the like, (S, K,) for his family: (Msb:) or كَسَبَ signifies he got, or obtained, or gained, acquired, or earned, [sustenance, &c.]; and ↓ اكتسب, he applied himself with art and diligence [to get, or obtain, or gain, acquire, or earn, sustenance &c.; he laboured to earn, or gain, sustenance]: (Sb, K:) [so] also ↓ تكسّب is explained by تَكَلَّفَ الكَسْبَ he applied himself, as to a task, to gain, &c. (S.) b4: كَسَبَ is also said to signify, and originally, both he sought, or sought after, [sustenance]; and he laboured in seeking, or seeking after, sustenance. (TA.) b5: ↓ اكتسب has a more intensive signification than كَسَبَ; and hence, in the last verse of the second chap. of the Kur [لَهَا مَا كَسَبَتْ وَعَلَيْهَا مَا اكْتَسَبَتْ To it shall be given what reward it hath earned, and upon it shall be executed what punishment it hath drawn upon itself], the latter is used with reference to what is good; and the former, with reference to what is evil. (IJ.) You say, كَسَبَ خَيْرًا (tropical:) [He gained, or earned, or did, good]: and ↓ اكتسب شَرًّا (tropical:) [He gained, or earned, or did, evil]. (A.) b6: [This distinction, however, is not always observed: for] كَسَبَ signifies, He did either a good or an evil deed: [because he who does so earns, or draws upon himself, reward or punishment.] (Jel in ii. 281; and iii. 24; &c.) and ↓ اكتسب He committed an act of which he was accusable. (Jel in xxxiii. 58.) كَسَبَ إِثْمًا and ↓ اكتسبهُ signify He [committed, or] burdened himself with (تَحَمَّلَ), a sin, or crime. (Msb.) b7: كَسَبَهُ مَالًا, (S, K,) and مالا ↓ اكسبهُ, (IAar, IAth, K,) but the former is the more approved: the latter is by Fr and some others rejected: (TA:) He caused him to gain, acquire, or earn, wealth: (IAth, Msb:) or he assisted him to gain, acquire, or earn, wealth. (IAth.) كسبهُ عِلْمًا He caused him to gain, or acquire, knowledge. (Msb.) [In like manner,] العَبْدَ ↓ اسْتَكْسَبْتُ I caused the slave to gain, or make gain; the verb having here the sense of the measure أَفْعَلْتُهُ; like as اِسْتَخْرَجْتُهُ signifies أَخْرَجْتُهُ. (Msb.) [See an ex. voce أَدِيمٌ.] b8: نَهَى عَنْ كَسْبِ الإِمَاءِ [He (Mohammad) forbade the making female slaves to earn money, or the like, (by prostitution)].

الكَوَاسِبُ i. q. الجَوَارِحُ, (S, K,) here meaning The members (either of a man or of a bird) by means of which is gained, acquired, or earned, sustenance, or the like. (MF.) [The explanation in the TA, الجَوَارِحُ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ وَالطَّيْرِ, seems, at first sight, to signify preyers, whether men or birds: but this meaning I do not think to be the one intended.]
