(TA.) Lh mentions, as a phrase of the Arabs, هٰؤُلَآءِ أَبْنَآءُ صِلَبَتِهِمْ [These are the sons of their loins: because the sperma of the man is held to proceed from the صُلْب of the man, as is said in the Ksh &c. in lxxxvi. 7].

[of the former accord. to analogy, and perhaps of the latter also,] صُلُبٌ. (K.) Hence, in a trad., the phrase أَصْحَابُ الصُّلُبِ [in the CK ↓ الصَّلَبِ] Those who collect bones, (K, TA,) when the flesh has been stripped off from them, and cook them with water, (TA,) and extract their grease, or oily matter, and use it as a seasoning.

(TA.) b4: And i. q. عَلَمٌ [as meaning A banner, or standard; properly, in the form of a cross]: (O, K:) En-Nábighah Edh-Dhubyánee is said to have thus called the عَلَم because there was upon it a صَلِيب [i. e. a cross]; for he was a Christian.

(T, TA.) b2: [Hence, ذَيَّلْتُ كِتَابَهُ (assumed tropical:) I added an appendix to his writing, or book; like ذَنَّبْتُهُ.

(Msb.) It is said in a trad., (S, M,) of the Prophet, (M,) نَهَى عَنْ إِذَالَةِ الخَيْلِ, (S, M,) i. e. [He forbade] the using of horses for mean work, and burdens. (S, TA.) b4: and أَذْلْتُهَا I rendered her lean; or emaciated her; namely, a woman, and a camel. (TA.) 5 تذيّلت الدَّابَّةُ The beast moved about its tail.

ذَيْلٌ The latter, or kinder, or the last, or kindmost, part of anything. (M, K.) Accord. to MF, this is the proper signification, and the other significations here following are tropical. (TA.) [But in my opinion, the word in each of the next two senses, or at least in the former of them; if not strictly proper, is what is termed حَقِيقَةٌ عُرْفِيَّةٌ, i. e. a word so much used in a tropical sense as to be, in that sense, conventionally regarded as proper.] b2: [A skirt, or lower extremity, of a garment, reaching nearly, or quite, to the ground, or that is dragged upon the ground, when made to hang down:] the extremity, of a garment, that is next the ground, and so if not touching it [as well as if touching it]; an inf. n. used in this sense: (Msb:) or the part of a waist-wrapper (إِــزَار), and of a garment [of any kind], that is dragged [upon the ground], (M, K,) when it is made to hang down: (M:) or the part, of an إِــزَار, and of a [garment of the kind called] رِدَآء, that is made to hang down, and touches the ground: and the part, of any kind of garment worn by a woman, that the wearer drags upon the ground behind her: (Lth, T:) or the parts, all round, of a woman's garment, that fall upon the ground: and the portion that is made to hang down, of a woman's shift and of her قِنَاع [or head-covering]: you do not [properly] say of a man that he has a ذَيْل [but only when you liken the lower part of his garment to the similar part of a woman's garment]: a man's having a long garment, such as a shirt and a جُبَّة, [or his dragging the skirt thereof,] is termed إِرْفَالٌ: (Khálid Ibn-Jembeh, T:) the pl. of ذَيْلٌ (in this sense, T, Msb, as relating to a shirt [&c.], S, and in all its senses, T, M) is أَذْيَالٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and أَذْيُلٌ (El-Hejeree, M, K) [both pls. of pauc.] and ذُيُولٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) which is a pl. of mult. (M.) Hence طُولُ الذَّيْلِ is a metonymical expression meaning (tropical:) Richness, or competency; because long أَذْيَال generally pertain to the rich and the prodigal and the proud and self-conceited: (Er-Rázee, Har p. 493:) and you say, طَالَ ذَيْلُ فُلَانٍ, meaning (tropical:) The state, or condition, of such a one became good, and his wealth became abundant: and هُوَ طَوِيلُ الذَّيْلِ, meaning (tropical:) He is rich. (Har p. 319.) b3: Of a horse (T, K) &c., (K,) [i. e.] of a horse and a camel and the like, (M,) The tail: (T, M, K:) or the tail when long: (TA:) or the part, of the tail, that is made to hang down. (M, K.) b4: [(assumed tropical:) Of a cloud, The skirt; or lower, pendent, part: used in this sense in the K voce هَيْدَبٌ.] b5: ذَيْلُ الرِّيحِ (assumed tropical:) What is dragged along, (T, S, O,) or drawn together, (M,) by the wind, upon the ground, (T, S, O, M,) of dust (T, M, O) and rubbish: (T, O:) or what the wind leaves upon the sand, (M, K,) in the form of a rope, (M,) resembling the track of a ذَيْل [or skirt] dragged along: (M, K:) or, as some say, أَذْيَالُالرِّيحِ means (assumed tropical:) the after-parts of the wind, with which it sweeps what is light to it. (M.) b6: ذَيْلُ جَبَلٍ (assumed tropical:) The foot, bottom, base, or lowest part, of a mountain. (A and TA voce جَرٌّ.) b7: أَذْيَالُ النَّاسِ (assumed tropical:) The hindmost of the people. (K.) You say, جَآءَ أَذْيَالٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ (assumed tropical:) Some few of the hindmost of the people came. (S, Sgh.) b8: See also 2.

A2: And see ذَائِلٌ.

ذَيَّالٌ: see ذَائِلٌ, in three places. b2: Also That behaves proudly, conceitedly, or vainly, and walks with an elegant and a proud and self-conceited gait. (TA.) Applied to a horse, That carries himself in an elegant and a proud and self-conceited manner, in his step, and in curvetting, or raising his fore legs together and putting them down together, and kneading with his hind legs, or in prancing, as though he dragged along the ذَيْل [or pendent portion] of his tail. (M.) ذَائِلٌ, applied to a horse, Having a ذَيْل, (T, K,) i. e. tail: (T:) and ↓ ذَيَّالٌ having a long ذَيْل: (T, K:) or the former word has the latter signification; (IKt, T, M;) it means having a long tail: (S:) and ↓ the latter word, tall, and having a long ذَيْل, (M, K,) and that carries himself in an elegant and a proud and self-conceited manner, in his step; (K;) and is applied in the same sense to a wild bull: (M:) or the former word signifies short, and having a long tail; and its fem. is with ة: (T:) or when a horse is of this description, they say الذَّنَبِ ↓ ذَيَّالُ, mentioning the ذَنَب. (T, S.) b2: Also, applied to a دِرْع, (S, M, K,) [i. e. a coat of mail, as is shown in the S and TA,] Long (S, M, K) in the ذَيْل [or shirt]; (S;) and so ذَائِلَةٌ and ↓ مُذَالَةٌ. (M, K. [In the CK, the last word is erroneously written مَذَالَةٌ.]) b3: And حَلْقَةٌ ذَائِلَةٌ and ↓ مُذَالَةٌ A ring [app. of a coat of mail] that is slender (M, K *) and elongated. (M.) A2: ذَائِلٌ ↓ ذَيْلٌ [an expression like ذُلٌّ ذَلِيلٌ, the former word an inf. n.,] means [Exceeding] lowness, baseness, vileness, meanness, contemptibleness, or ignominiousness. (S.) مُذَالٌ; fem. with ة: see the latter in the next preceding paragraph, in two places. b2: The fem. also means (assumed tropical:) A female slave: (T, S, M:) because she is held in low, or mean, estimation, while she carries herself in an elegant and a proud and selfconceited manner: so in the prov., أَخِيلُ مِنْ مُذَالَةٍ

[More proud and self-conceited than a female slave]. (S, K.) مُذْيِلٌ [so in my MS. copy of the K, as in the M, but in other copies of the K مُذَيَّلٌ,] and ↓ مُتَذَيِّلٌ [in the CK مُتَذَيَّلٌ] i. q. مُتَبَذِّلٌ [One who performs his own work; or who is careless of himself or his honour or reputation]. (M, K.) مُذَيَّلٌ A garment, (T,) of the kind called مُلَآء, (T, S,) or رِدَآء, (K,) Long (T, S, K) in the ذَيْل [or skirt]. (S, K.) So in a verse of Imra-el- Keys, of which the latter hemistich is cited voce دُوَارٌ. (T, TA.) أَرْضٌ مُتَذَيَّلَةٌ A land upon which has fallen a weak and small quantity (لَطْخٌ ضَعِيفٌ) of rain. (Sgh, K.) مُتَذَيِّلٌ: see مُذِيلٌ.

خلق

1 خَلْقٌ signifies The act of measuring; or determining the measure, proportion, or the like, of a thing; and the making a thing by measure, or according to the measure of another thing; or proportioning a thing to another thing; syn. تَقْدِيرٌ: (S, Msb, K, TA, and Bd in ii. 19:) this is the primary meaning. (Msb, TA, and Bd ubi suprà.) You say, خَلَقَ الأَدِيمِ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, TA,) inf. n. خَلْقٌ (JK, S, Msb, K) and خَلْقَةٌ, (K,) He measured, or proportioned, (قَدَّرَ,) the hide, and sewed it: (K:) or he measured, or proportioned, (قدّر,) the hide, (JK, S, Msb, K,) لِمَا يُرِيدُ [for, or to, that which he desired to make of it], (JK, * TA,) or لِلسِّقَآءِ [for, or to, the skin for water or milk that he desired to make], (Msb,) before cutting it; (S, K, TA;) he measured it (قَاسَهُ) to cut from it a water-bag, or a water-skin, or a boot: (TA:) and in like manner, خَلَقَ النِّطَعَ he measured, &c., the نطع [q. v.]: when one cuts it, one says, فَرَاهُ. (K.) And خَلَقَ النَّعْلَ He determined the measure of the sandal, or proportioned it; (قَدَّرَهَا;) and made it by measure. (Ksh and Bd in ii. 19.) Hence the saying of Zuheyr, (S,) praising Herim Ibn-Sinán, (TA,) وَلَأَنْتَ تَفْرِى مَا خَلَقْتَ وَبَعْ(??) (??)ضُ القَوْمِ يَخْلُقُ ثُمَّ لَا يَفْرِى

[(assumed tropical:) And thou indeed cuttest what thou hast measured; but some of the people measure, then will not cut]: (S, TA:) i. e., when thou determinest upon a thing thou executest it; but others determine upon that which they do not execute. (TA.) And El-Hajjáj said, مَا خَلَقْتُ إِلَّا قَرَيْتُ وَعَدْتُ

إِلَّا وَفَيْتُ [(assumed tropical:) I have not measured unless I have afterwards cut, and I have not promised unless I have afterwards performed]. (S.) أَخْلُقُ لَكُمْ مِنَ الطِّينِ كَهَيْئَةِ الطَّيْرِ, in the Kur iii. 43, means I will form for you, (Jel,) or I will make according to its proper measure (أُقَدِّرُ) for you, (Ksh, Bd,) and will form, (Bd,) of clay, a thing like the form of the bird, or of birds. (Ksh, Bd, Jel.) b2: [Hence,] it signifies also The bringing a thing into existence according to a certain measure, or proportion, and so as to make it equal [to another thing], or uniform [therewith]: (Ksh and Bd in ii. 19:) or the originating, or producing, [a thing] after a pattern, or model, which one has devised, not after the similitude of anything preexisting: this is another meaning which it has in the [classical] language of the Arabs. (TA.) As the act of God, it signifies The originating, or bringing into being or existence, anything, not after the similitude of anything pre-existing: (TA:) [and the creating a thing; and thus it is generally best rendered; as meaning the bringing into existence from a state of non-existence: for]

خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ الشَّىْءَ, inf. n. خَلْقٌ, means God brought the thing into existence (Mgh, * TA) after it had not been: (TA:) [or خَلْقٌ, as the act of God, signifies the creating out of nothing: for it is said that] أُعْبُدُوا رَبَّكُمُ الَّذِى خَلَقَكُمْ, in the Kur ii. 19, means [Serve ye your Lord] who brought you into existence when ye were nothing. (Jel. [But in other passages of the Kur (vi. 2 &c.) it is said that God created (خَلَقَ) mankind of clay.]) Accord. to the A, خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ الخَلْقَ is a tropical phrase, meaning (tropical:) God brought into existence the creation, or created beings, or mankind, according to a predetermination (تَقْدِير) required by wisdom. (TA.) You say, هٰذِهِ خَلِيقَتُهُ الَّتِى خُلِقَ عَلَيْهَا and خُلِقَهَا and الَّتِى خُلِقَ: see خُلُقٌ. (Lh.) b3: [Hence, also,] خَلَقَ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) inf. n. خَلْقٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) He fabricated speech, or a saying or sentence, &c.: (K, * TA:) (tropical:) he forged (S, Msb, K, TA) a saying, (Msb,) or a lie, or a falsehood; (S, K, TA;) as also ↓ اختلق (S, Msb, K) and ↓ تخلّق. (S, K.) The Arabs say, حَدَّثَنَا فُلَانٌ بِأَحَادِيثِ الخَلْقِ (tropical:) Such a one related to us fictitious tales or stories, such as are deemed pretty, or such as are told by night [for entertainment]. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur [xxvi. 137], accord. to one reading, إِنْ هٰذَا إِلَّا خَلْقُ الأَوَّلِينَ, meaning (tropical:) This is nought but the lying, and forging, of the ancients. (TA.) and in the same [xxxviii. 6], ↓ إِنْ هٰذَا إِلَّا اخْتِلَاقٌ (tropical:) This is nought but forging, and lying. (TA.) b4: خَلَقَهُ, (K,) inf. n. خَلْقٌ, (TA,) also signifies He made it smooth; (K;) and so ↓ خلّقهُ; namely, an arrow, (S,) [and any other thing; for] of anything that has been made smooth one says, خُلِّقَ: (TA:) he made it equable, or even; namely, wood, or a stick; and so ↓ خلّقهُ, (K,) inf. n. تَخْلِيقٌ. (TA.) A2: خَلُقَتْ, inf. n. خَلَاقَةٌ, said of a woman, (JK, K,) She had [a goodly] body and make: (JK:) or she was, or became, goodly in make, or well made. (K. [In the CK, instead of حَسُنَ خَلْقُهَا, is put حَسُنَ خُلُقُها, meaning She was, or became, good in nature, &c.]) b2: And خَلِقَ, aor. ـَ (JK, K,) inf. n. خَلَقٌ; (JK, S; *) and خَلُقَ, aor. ـُ (K,) inf. n. خُلُوقَةٌ (TA) [and خَلَاقَةٌ, and perhaps خُلْقَةٌ q. v. infrà]; It (a thing) was, or became, smooth, (JK, K, TA,) and equable, or even. (TA.) [See also 12.

And it seems that one says, خَلِقَتِ الصَّخْرَةُ, inf. n. خَلَقٌ, q. v. infrà, meaning The rock was free from crack or fracture.] b3: And خَلُقَ, (JK, S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (K;) and خَلِقَ, aor. ـَ and خَلَقَ, aor. ـُ (K;) inf. n. (of the first, JK, S) خُلُوقَةٌ (JK, S, K) and خَلَاقَةٌ (JK, TA) and [of the second] خَلَقٌ (K) and [of the third] خُلُوقٌ; (JK, TA;) It (a garment) was, or became, old, and worn out; as also ↓ اخلق, (JK, S, Msb,) inf. n. إِخْلَاقٌ; (JK, TA;) and ↓ اخلولق. (TA.) [Hence,] دِيبَاجُهُ ↓ اخلق [lit.] His face became worn out; meaning (tropical:) it became used for mean service [so that it lost its grace, or was disgraced,] by his begging. (Har p. 476. [See also 4 below.]) [Hence also,] شَبَابَهُ ↓ اخلق (assumed tropical:) His youth declined, or departed. (TA.) b4: And خَلُقَ, (S, K,) aor. ـُ (K,) inf. n. خَلاقَةٌ, (Ham p. 522,) He was, or became, خَلِيق, i. e. جَدِير [meaning adapted or disposed by nature, apt, meet, &c.: see خَلِيقٌ, below]. (S, K.) You say, خَلُقَ لذٰلِكَ [and بِذٰلِكَ (see خَلِيقٌ) He was, or became, adapted, disposed, &c., for that]; as though he were one of those in whom that was reckoned to be, and in whom the symptoms, signs, or tokens, thereof were seen. (S.) [And خَلُقَ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ and بِأَنْ يفعل ذلك and لِأَنْ يفعل ذلك and مَنْ أَنْ يفعل ذلك He was, or became, adapted, &c., to do that: see خَلِيقٌ. And خَلُقَ may signify also It was, or became, probable; or likely to happen or be, or to have happened or been: see, again, خَلِيقٌ.]2 خلّقهُ: see 1, latter half, in two places.

A2: Also, (S, K,) inf. n. تَخْلِيقٌ, (K,) He rubbed him over with خَلُوق [q. v.]: (S:) or he perfumed him: (K:) or خلّقهُ بِخَلُوقٍ he perfumed him with خلوق (TA.)

(TA.) One says, خَالِصِ المُؤْمِنَ وَخَالِقِ الفَاجِرَ, (S,) or وخالق الكَافِرَ, (TA,) [Act thou with reciprocal sincerity towards the believer, and comport thyself with the vitious, or the unbeliever, according to his nature, &c. See also 3 in art. خلص, where a similar saying is mentioned.]4 اخلق: see 1, latter part, in three places. b2: Also He had old and worn-out garments. (TA.) A2: اخلقهُ He wore it out; namely, a garment; the verb being trans. as well as intrans. (S, Msb, K.) [Hence,] اخلق الدَّهْرُ الشَّىْءَ (assumed tropical:) Time wore out, or wasted, the thing. (TA.) [Hence also,] one says to the beggar, أَخْلَقْتَ وَجْهَكَ (tropical:) (TA) [lit. Thou hast worn out thy face;] meaning (tropical:) thou hast used thy face for mean service [so that it has lost its grace, or has become disgraced]: and in like manner one says, أُخْلِقُ لَهُ دِيَبَاجَتِى, i. e. وَجْهِى: and يُخْلِقُ دِيبَاجَتَيْهِ (tropical:) He uses his face for mean service by begging. (Har pp. 15 and 476.) b2: Also, (K,) or اخلقهُ ثَوْبًا, (S,) He clad him with an old and worn-out garment. (S, K.) and اخلقِنى ثَوْبَهُ He gave me his old and worn-out garment. (JK.) And some say, اخلقهُ خَلَقًا He gave him an old and worn-out garment. (TA.) b3: And إِخْلَاقٌ الثَّوْبِ also signifies The cutting out of the garment: whence the saying, to UmmKhálid, أَبْلِى وَأَخْلِقِى [Wear out, and cut out new]; or, as some relate it, وَأَخْلِفِى, i. e., “and replace,” which is the more likely. (TA.) A3: مَا أَخْلَقَهُ and أَخْلِقْ بِهِ [have both of the following significations; though it is said that] the former signifies How likely is he, or it! (JK, TA;) and the latter, How well adapted or disposed, or how apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, or how worthy, is he, or it! i. q. أَجْدِرْ بِهِ and أَحْرِ بِهِ. (TA. [See 4 in arts. جدر and حرى.]) 5 تَخَلَّقَ see 1, a little after the middle of the paragraph. b2: تخلّق بِغَيْرِ خُلُقِهِ means He affected a خُلُق [or nature, &c.,] that was not his own. (S, K.) And تخلّق بِكَذَا He feigned such a thing, it not being in his nature, or not being created in him. (TA.) And تخلّق لِلنَّاسِ بِمَا لَيْسَ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ, occurring in a trad., [He affected, to men, a nature, &c., that did not belong to him; or] he pretended [to men] that there was in his nature فِى

خُلُقِهِ) that which was contrary to his real intention; (Mbr, TA;) or that which was contrary to what he had in his heart: the verb is similar to تَصَنَّعَ and تَجَمَّلَ. (TA.) A2: تخلّق بِهِ; (S, K;) and تخلّقت به; (Msb;) He was, or became, rubbed over, (S,) or perfumed; (K;) and she was, or became, so; (Msb;) [or he rubbed himself over, or perfumed himself; and she did so;] with it; (S, Msb, K;) namely, with خَلُوق. (S, Msb.) 8 إِخْتَلَقَ see 1, latter half, in two places.12 اخلولق, said of the back (مَتْن) of a horse, It was, or became, smooth; (K;) [like خَلِقَ and خَلُقَ; or very smooth; for] the verb is of a form intensive in signification. (TA. [See its part. n., مَخْلَوْلِقٌ, below.]) b2: Said of a رَسْم [i. e. a trace, or a remain or relic marking the place of a house or the like and cleaving to the ground,] It was, or became, even with the ground. (S, K.) b3: اخلولق السَّحَابُ The clouds became equable, or uniform, (JK, S, K, TA,) their sides becoming conjoined; or, as some say, they became smooth; (TA;) and, (K,) or as some say, (S, TA,) they became adapted, or disposed, to rain; (S, K, TA;) as though they were rendered smooth: or they became collected together after separation, and prepared to rain. (TA.) And اخلولقت السَّمَآءُأَنْ تَمْطُرَ The sky was near, and likely, to rain. (TA.) b4: See also 1, latter part.

خَلْقٌ inf. n. of خَلَقَ. (JK, S, Msb, K, &c.) You say رَجُلٌ تَامُّ الخَلْقِ [A man complete, or perfect, in respect of make, or proportion, &c.]. (S, K. * [See also خِلْقَةٌ.]) [In this and similar instances,] الخَلْق signifies The fashion of the outer man, and its [peculiar] qualities and attributes; like as الخُلُقُ signifies “ the fashion of the inner man,” &c. (TA.) b2: الخَلْقُ is also used in the sense of ↓ المَخْلُوقُ [meaning What is created; the creature]: (TA, and Bd in xxiii. 17, &c.:) [and, collectively, the creation; as meaning the beings, or things, that are created;] all created things: (Bd ubi suprà, &c.:) and [particularly] mankind; as also ↓ الخلِيقَةُ: (S, * K:) and mankind and the jinn, or genii, and others: (Jel in lv. 9, &c.:) and ↓ الخلِيقَةُ and [its pl.] خَلَائِقُ signify the same: you say, هُمْ خَلِيقَةُ اللّٰهِ and also هُمْ خَلقُ اللّٰهِ [They are the creatures of God]: الخَلْقُ being originally an inf. n.: (S, TA:) and Lh mentions [an instance of its having a pl., in] the saying, لَا وَالَّذِى خَلَقَ الخُلُوقَ مَا فَعَلْتُ كَذَا, meaning [No, by Him who created] all creatures, [I did not such a thing.] (TA.) In the saying, فَلَيُغَيِّرُنَّ خَلْقَ اللّٰهِ, in the Kur [iv. 118, lit. and they shall alter the creature of God], some say that castration is meant: (TA: [and Bd includes, with this, other unnatural actions:]) or the meaning is, the religion of God; (Bd, Jel, TA;) accord. to El-Hasan and Mujáhid. (TA.) and لَا تَبْدِيلَ لِخَلْقِ اللّٰهِ, in the Kur [xxx. 29], means, accord. to Katádeh, [There shall be no changing, or altering,] of the religion of God. (TA.) b3: خَلْقٌ also signifies Anything made smooth. (TA.) [See also مُخَلَّقٌ.]

خُلْقٌ: see خُلُقٌ, in four places.

خَلَقُ inf. n. of خَلِقَ: as such, signifying The being smooth [&c.]. (JK, S. *) [As such also,] in a rock, Freedom from crack or fracture. (S, K.) b2: [And, as such,] The being old, and worn out. (K.) b3: [Hence, used as an epithet,] Old, and worn out: (S, Msb, K:) [and as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant; meaning an old and worn-out garment or piece of cloth:] pl. خُلْقَانٌ (S, K) and أَخْلَاقٌ. (S, * K, * TA.) And [as an epithet] it is masc. and fem.; (S, K;) because it is originally an inf. n., the inf. n. of أَخْلَقُ meaning “ smooth,” (S,) [or rather of خَلِقَ meaning “ it was, or became, old, and worn out; ” although it has pls.; and] IB mentions an instance of its dual, خَلَقَانِ: (TA:) Ks says, We have not heard them say, خَلَقَةٌ in any instance: (Lh, TA:) Fr says that it is without ة [as a fem. epithet] because it was originally used as a prefixed noun; for one said, أَعْطِنِى

خَلَقَ جُبَّتِكَ and خَلَقَ عِمَامَتِكَ [lit. meaning Give thou to me what is old, and worn out, of thy جبّة and of thy turban]; but Ez-Zejjájee says that this is nought. (TA.) You say ثَوْبٌ خَلَقٌ [An old and worn-out garment or piece of cloth], and مِلْحَفَةٌ خَلَقٌ [an old and worn-out outer wrapping garment]: (S:) also رُمَّةٌ خَلَقٌ [an old and worn-out piece of rope]: and دَارٌ خَلَقٌ [an old and decayed house]: and جِسْمٌ خَلَقٌ [an old and wasted body]. (TA.) One says also ثَوْبٌ

أَخْلَاقٌ, meaning A garment, or piece of cloth, altogether, or wholly, old and worn out; (Fr, S, K;) every portion of it being خَلَق; (Fr;) like as they said بُرْمَةٌ أَعْشَارٌ &c.: (S:) and in like manner, مُلَآءَةٌ أَخْلَاقٌ. (IAar.) And Ks mentions the saying, أَصْبَحَتْ ثِيَابُهُمْ خُلْقَانًا وَ خَلَقُهُمْ جُدُدًا [Their garments became old, and worn out; and their old and worn-out garments became replaced by new]; with the sing. [in the latter clause] in the place of the pl. خُلْقَان: (TA:) or جُدُدًا may be here put for جَدِيدًا. (L in art. جد.) In the phrase ↓ مِلْحَفَةٌ خُلَيْقٌ [An outer wrapping garment that is a little, or somewhat, old, and worn out], the dim. is without ة because it is [the dim. of] an epithet [applied without ة to a fem. n.], and ة is not affixed to the dims. of epithets [of this kind]: it is like نُصَيُفٌ dim. of نَصَفٌ an epithet applied to a woman. (S, K. * [See Lumsden's Arab. Gram. p. 623: but some of the grammarians consider these instances as anomalous.]) b4: بَاعَهُ بِيعَةَ الخَلَقِ, and بَيْعَ ذِى الخَلَقِ, the latter as used by a poet, [lit. He bought it, or sold it, (app. the former,) as one buys, or sells, the old and worn-out garment, like as we say “ dogcheap,” and “ cheap as dirt ”], are phrases mentioned, but not explained, by IAar, who cites the following saying: أَبْلِغْ فَــزَارَــةَ أَنِّى قَدْ شَرَيْتُ لَهَا مَجْدَ الحَيَاةِ بِسَيْفِى بَيْعَ ذِى الخَلَقِ [app. meaning Tell thou Fezárah that I have purchased for them life-long glory (lit. the glory of life), with my sword, as cheaply, i. e as easily, as one purchases the old and worn-out garment]. (TA.) b5: سَحَابَةٌ خَلَقَةٌ: see the next paragraph.

خَلِقٌ [part. n. of خَلِقَ]. b2: [Hence,] سحَابَةٌ خَلِقَةٌ A cloud in which is a sign, or trace, of rain; as also ↓ خَلِيقَةٌ: (S, K:) or a cloud giving hope of rain; as also ↓ خَلْقَآءُ; (JK;) both are said by IAar to signify the same: (TA:) and ↓ خَلَقَةٌ [alone, as a subst., or probably سَحَابَةٌ خَلَقَةٌ,] a cloud that is equable, or uniform, giving hope of rain. (Aboo-Sa'eed, K.) خُلُقٌ (S, Msb, K) and ↓ خُلْقٌ (S, K) A nature; or a natural, a native, or an innate, disposition or temper or the like; syn. سَجِيَّةٌ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) and طَبْعٌ; (K, TA;) of which one is created: (TA:) and ↓ خِلْقَةٌ signifies [the same; i. e.] the فِطْرَةٌ [or nature, &c.,] (S, Msb, K, TA) of which a man is created; (TA;) like [خُلُقٌ and] ↓ خُلْقٌ: (K, TA: [in the CK, erroneously, خَلْق:]) and ↓ خَلِيقَةٌ [also] signifies [the same; i. e.] the طَبِيعَة [or nature, &c.,] (S, K, TA) with which a man is created: (TA:) the proper signification of خُلُقٌ is [the moral character; or] the fashion of the inner man; i. e. his mind, or soul, and its peculiar qualities and attributes; like as خَلْقٌ signifies the “ fashion of the outer man, and its [peculiar] qualities and attributes: ”

it signifies also custom or habit [as being a second nature]: (TA:) and, as also ↓ خُلْقٌ, [which is merely a contraction thereof, and therefore identical with it in all its senses,] manliness; syn. مُرُوْءَةٌ: and religion: (IAar, K:) the pl. is أَخْلَاقٌ only: (TA:) [this is often used as signifying morals: and ethics:] and the pl. of ↓ خَلِيقَةٌ in the sense explained above [said in Har p. 193 to be that of خُلُقٌ] is خَلَائِقٌ. (S.) It is said in a trad., لَيْسَ شَىْءٌ فِى المِيزَانِ أَثْقَلَ مِنْ حُسْنِ الخُلُقِ [Nothing is heavier in the balance in which good and evil will be weighed than goodness of the moral character, &c.] (TA.) And one says, عَلَيْهَا ↓ الَّتِى خُلِقَ ↓ هٰذِهِ خَلِيقَتُهُ and ↓ خُلِقَهَا and ↓ الَّتِى خُلِقَ This is his nature, &c., of which he was created. (Lh.) And ↓ إِنَّهُ لَكَرِيمُ الخَلِيقَةِ Verily he is generous in respect of nature, &c. (Az.) And صَارَ ذٰلِكَ لَهُ خُلُقًا That became to him [a second nature, a habit, or] a thing to which he was habituated. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xxvi. 137], إِنْ هٰذَا إِلَّا خُلُقُ الأَوَّلِينَ This is nought but a custom of the ancients. (TA.) And in the same [lxviii. 4], وَ إِنَّكَ لَعَلَى خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ and verily thou art of a great religion. (Jel, TA.) And in a trad. of 'Áïsheh, كَانَ خُلُقُهُ القَرْآنَ, meaning That whereto he clung was the Kur-án, with its rules of discipline and its command and its prohibitions, and the excellences and beauties and gracious things comprised in it. (TA.) b2: نَوْمَةُ الخُلقِ [i. e. الخُلُقِ or ↓ الخُلْقِ] The sleep of midday, which was prescribed by the Prophet. (Har p. 223. [See also حُمْقٌ and خُرْقٌ.]) خُلْقَةٌ Smoothness; (K, TA;) as also ↓ خُلُوقَةٌ and ↓ خَلَاقَةٌ: (K:) but the second of these three, correctly speaking, [as also the third, accord. to analogy, and perhaps the first also,] is an inf. n. of خَلُقَ. (TA.) خِلْقَةٌ [primarily signifies A mode, or manner, of خَلْق, generally as meaning creation; a particular make: and hence,] constitution; syn. تَرْكِيبٌ: (Mgh:) [and particularly the natural constitution of an animated being, as created in the womb of the mother; also termed فِطْرَةٌ:] see also خُلُقٌ. You say رَجُلٌ حَسَنُ الخِلْقَةِ [A man goodly, or beautiful, in respect of make]. (A, TA.) فِى مَسْلَكٍ هُوَ خِلْقَةٌ means فِى طَرِيقٍ

أَصْلِىٍّ ↓ خِلْقِىٍّ [In a way, or road, that is natural, and original]. (Mgh.) خَلَقَةٌ: see خَلِقٌ.

خِلْقِىٌّ Natural; not accidental: [constitutional: of, or relating to, or belonging to, the natural constitution of an animated being, as created in the womb of the mother:] rel. n. of خِلْقَةٌ. (Msb.) You say عَيْبٌ خِلْقِىٌّ A natural fault or imperfection &c. (Msb.) And صِفَةٌ خِلْقِيَّةٌ [A natural quality]; opposed to اخْتِيَارِيَّةٌ. (Msb in art. مدح.) See also خِلْقَةٌ.

خَلَقِىٌّ One who wears old and worn-out clothes. (TA.) خُلْقَانِىٌّ A seller of old and worn-out clothes. (TA.) خَلَاقٌ A share, or portion: (JK, S, Msb:) and a good, just, or righteous, share or portion: (JK:) or a full, a complete, or an abundant, share or portion of good, (K, TA,) and of goodness, or righteousness: (TA:) and religion: or a share, or portion, thereof. (TA.) One says, لَا خَلَاقَ لَهُ فِى الآخِرَةِ There is no share, or portion, [of good] for him in the final state of existence. (S. [See the Kur iii. 71, &c.]) and لَا خَلَاقَ لَهُ He has no desire for good, nor righteousness in religion. (TA.) خِلَاقٌ: see the next paragraph.

خَلُوقٌ A certain species of perfume; (JK, S, Mgh, Msb, K;) also termed ↓ خِلَاقٌ; (Lh, Msb, K;) accord. to some of the lawyers, (Msb,) fluid, (Mgh, Msb,) but of thick consistence; (L, voce نَضْخٌ;) and in which is a yellowness: (Mgh, Msb:) it is composed of saffron and other things; and redness and yellowness are predominant in it: it is forbidden [to men], because it is of the perfumes of women, who use it more than do men.

[or coll. gen. n.] of the latter, like as شَعِيرٌ is of شَعِيرَةٌ: (TA:) and ↓ مُخْتَلَقٌ signifies anything just in proportion: (IF, TA:) ↓ مُخَلَّقٌ, also, signifies perfect, or complete, in make; applied to a camel (جمل): (TA:) [or جمل, here may be a mistranscription for حَمْل; for] ↓ مُضْغَةٌ مُخَلَّقَةٌ signifies [a fœtus when it has become like a lump of flesh] perfect, or complete, in make; (Fr, S, K;) so in the Kur xxii. 5; (Fr, TA;) or of which the make has become apparent.

You say, فُلَانٌ خَلِيقٌ لِكَذَا, i. e. جَدِيرٌ بِهِ [Such a one is adapted or disposed by nature, &c., for such a thing]; as though he were one of those in whom that was reckoned to be, and in whom the symptoms, signs, or tokens, thereof were seen. (S.) [And هُوَ خَلِيقٌ لِلْخَيْرِ He is adapted or disposed by nature to good; i. e., to be, or to do, or to effect, or to produce, what is good.] and إِنَّهُ لَخَلِيقٌ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ and بِأَنْ يفعل ذلك and لِأَنْ يفعل ذلك and منْ أَنْ يفعل ذلك [Verily he is adapted or disposed &c. for doing that; or worthy to do it]: so says Lh: and he adds that the Arabs say, يَا خَلِيقُ بِذٰلِكَ, using the nom. case; and يَا خَلِيقًا بِذٰلِكَ, using the accus. case; [the latter being the usual form; both meaning O thou who art adapted or disposed &c. for that;] but ISd says, I know not the reason of this. (TA.) And لِذَاكَ ↓ هٰذَا مَخْلَقَةٌ, i. e. مَجْدَرَةٌ لَهُ [This is one that is adapted or disposed &c. for that]: (S, K: *) and لَكَ ↓ هٰذَا الأَمْرُ مَخْلَقَةٌ [This affair, or thing, is one that is adapted &c. for thee]: and مِنْ ذٰلِكَ ↓ إِنَّهُ مَخْلَقَةٌ [Verily it is adapted &c. for that]: like مَجْدَرَةٌ and مَحْرَاةٌ and مَقْمَنَةٌ: and in like manner one says of two, and of more than two, and of a feminine: so says Lh. (TA.) [↓ مَخْلَقَةٌ properly signifies A place, and hence a thing, an affair, and a person, adapted or disposed &c.: it is of the same class as مَعْسَاةٌ and مَظِنَّةٌ and مَئِنَّةٌ.] خَلِيقٌ also signifies Habituated, or accustomed. (PS, TA. *) And one says, إِنَّهُ لَخَلِيقٌ, i. e. لَحَرِىٌّ, meaning Verily it is probable; or likely to happen or be, or to have happened or been. (TA.)

(L.) [Hence,] one says, سَكَنَ الدَّمْعُ, and الدَّمُ, meaning رَقَأَ [The tears, and the blood, stopped, or ceased to flow]. (S and Mgh in art. رقاٌ.) [And one says of heat, and cold, and pain, &c., سَكَنَ عَنْهُ It passed away from him; quitted him. And سَكَنَتِ النَّارُ The fire became extinguished; or became allayed or assuaged; subsided; or ceased to flame or blaze or burn fiercely,] b2: [Hence also, It (a letter) was or became, quiescent; i. e., without a vowel immediately following it; contr. of تَحَرَّكَ.] b3: And سَكَنَ إِلَيْهِ, (Msb, [where the aor. is said to be سَكِنَ, but this is either a mistake or rare, for the aor. accord. to common usage is سَكُنَ, as in the Kur vii.] 189 and xxx. 20,]) inf. n. سُكُونٌ (Mgh, Msb) and سَكَنٌ, (Msb,) He trusted to it, or relied upon it, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; i. q. رَكَنَ إِلَيْهِ; (S and K &c. in art. ركن;) and اِطْمَأَنَّ إِلَيْهِ; (TA in art. طمن;) [and اِعْتَمَدَ عَلَيْهِ; and وَثِقَ بِهِ; &c.; and he inclined to it; syn. مَالَ إِلَيْهِ; and became familiar with it; syn. اِسُتَأْنَسَ بِهِ, and أَلِفَ; agreeably with explanations here following;] namely, a thing: (Msb:) and سَكَنَ إِلَيْهَا, aor. ـُ he trusted to her, or relied upon her, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; &c., as above; syn. اِطْمَأَنَّ إِلَيْهَا; (Ksh and Bd in vii. 189, and Ksh in xxx. 20;) and مَالَ إِلَيْهَا; (Ksh in vii. 189, and the same and Bd in xxx. 20;) and اِسْتَأْنَسَ بِهَا, and أَلِفَ; (Bd in the same two places;) namely, his wife.

(MA, Mgh.) وَلَهُ مَا سَكَنَ فِى اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ, in the Kur [vi. 13], is from السُّكْنَى (Ksh, Bd) or from السُّكُونُ: (Bd:) if from the former, (Ksh, Bd,) it signifies To Him belongeth what taketh up its abode in the night and the day; (IAar, Ksh, * Bd, * L, Jel;) meaning, what the night and the day include within their limits: (Ksh, * Bd:) or, if from السُّكُونُ, (Bd,) what is still, or motionless, (Abu-l-'Abbás, Bd, L,) and what moves; one of the two contraries being mentioned as sufficient [to show what is intended] without the other; (Bd;) app. meaning the creation, collectively, or all created beings. (Abu-l-'Abbás, L.) b5: And سَكَنَ, (L, K,) aor. ـُ (K,) He became such as is termed مِسْكِين [q. v.]; (L, K;) as also سَكُنَ, (K,) and ↓ اسكن, and ↓ تسكّن, and ↓ تَمَسْكَنَ: (L, K:) and [thus it means particularly] he was, or became, lowly, humble, or submissive; and low, abject, abased, and weak; as also ↓ اسكن, (L,) and ↓ تسكّن, and ↓ تَمَسْكَنَ; (S, * L;) the former of these being the regular form, (S, L,) and the more common and more chaste; (L;) the latter of them anomalous, [from المِسْكِينُ,] like تَمَنْدَلَ from المِنْدِيلُ, and تَمَدْرَعَ from المِدْرَعَةُ; (S, L;) and ↓ استكن, (L, Msb,) and ↓ اِسْتَكَانَ, of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ (L, Msb, K) from المَسْكَنَةُ (L, K) or from السُّكُونُ, (Msb,) with ا added, (L, Msb,) the vowel of the medial radical letter being thus rendered full in sound, (L, Msb, K,) or it is of the measure اِسْتَفْعَلَ from الكِينَةُ, signifying “ evil state or condition,” (Msb,) or from الكَيْنُ signifying “ the [piece of] flesh in the interior of the vulva,” because he who is lowly and abject is the most obscure of mankind. (L. [See also arts.

كون and كين.]) 2 سكّنهُ, (S, L, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَسْكِينٌ, (S, L, K,) He, or it, caused it to be, or become, still, motionless, stationary, in a state of rest, quiet, calm, or unruffled; (S, * L, Msb, K;) namely, a thing: (S, L, Msb:) [and caused it, namely, anything such as wind, and heat, and cold, and the like, as rain, and pain, and anger, to be, or become, still, or calm; stilled, calmed, tranquillized, appeased, allayed, assuaged, or quelled, it; caused it to die away, pass away, or cease to be: and caused it to remit, or subside; to become alleviated, light, slight, or gentle: and caused him, and it, namely, a man or beast or the like, and a voice or sound, to become still, or silent: (see 1, first sentence:)] and ↓ اسكنهُ signifies the same. (L.) [Hence,] one says of God, سكّن دَمْعَهُ, meaning أَرْقَأَهُ [He caused his tears to stop, or cease flowing]. (S and TA in art. رقأ.) b2: [and hence, He made it (a letter) quiescent; i. e., made it to be without a vowel immediately following it; contr. of حَرَّكَهُ.]

A2: تَسْكِينٌ also signifies The straightening a cane, or spear, (صَعْدَة,) with fire [which is termed السَّكَن]. (IAar, L, K.) A3: and The constantly riding a light and swift ass which is termed سُكَيْن. (IAar, L, K.) 3 ساكنهُ, inf. n. مُسَاكَنَةٌ, i. q. جَاوَرَهُ [meaning He lived in his neighbourhood, or near to him]. (TA in art. جور.) 4 اسكن: see 1, near the end, in two places.

A2: اسكنهُ: see 2, first sentence. b2: [Hence,] said of poverty, It made him to be little, or seldom, in motion. (Aboo-Is-hák, L, K.) b3: And, said of God, He made him to be such as is termed مِسْكِين [q. v.]. (L, K.) b4: And اسكنهُ الدَّارَ, (S, L, Msb, K,) or المَنْزِلَ, (MA,) He made him [or gave him] to inhabit the house, or abode; (S, * MA, L, * Msb, * K; *) he lodged him therein. (MA.) 5 تسكّن, said of a man, is from السَّكِينَةُ [i. e. He had, or possessed, or affected, the quality thus termed; meaning he was, or became, or affected to be, calm, tranquil, grave, staid, steady, or sedate; &c.]. (L.) See also Q. Q. 2, below: and see 1, above, near the end, in two places.8 استكن, and its var. or syn. اِسْتَكَانَ: see 1, near the end. Q. Q. 2 تَمَسْكَنَ He affected to be like, or he imitated, such as are termed مَسَاكِين [pl. of مِسْكِينٌ, q. v.]. (IAth, L.) b2: See also 1, near the end, in two places. You say, تَمَسْكَنَ لِرَبِهِ He humbled, or abased, himself to his Lord; or addressed himself with earnest, or energetic, supplication to Him: and ↓ تسكّن is like تَمَسْكَنَ. (Lh, L.) سَكْنٌ, a quasi-pl. n. of ↓ سَاكِنٌ, like as شَرْبٌ is of شَارِبٌ, called by Akh a pl., (L,) The inhabitants, people, or family, of a house or tent; (S, L, K;) a household. (L.) b2: And The collective body of the people of a tribe: one says, تَحَمَّلَ السَّكْنُ فَذَهَبُوا [The collective body of the people of the tribe bound the loads, or burdens, upon their beasts, and went away]. (Lh, L.) b3: See also سَكَنٌ. b4: And see the paragraph here next following.

سُكْنٌ: see سُكْنَى. b2: And see also مَسْكَنٌ, in three places. b3: Also, (L, JM, [thus written in both, and expressly said in the latter to be “ with damm,”]) or ↓ سَكَنٌ, (thus in copies of the K,) or ↓ سَكْنٌ, (thus in the CK,) [but the first is app. the right,] Food, aliment, or victuals, syn. قُوتٌ; (L, K, JM;) like نُزْلٌ meaning “ food (طَعَام, L, JM) of a party alighting to partake of it,” and said to be called سُكْنٌ because by means of it a place is inhabited, like as the نُزْل of an army means the “ appointed rations of an army alighting at a place. ” (L.) سَكَنٌ A thing, (S, L, Msb, K,) of any kind, (S, L,) to which one trusts, or upon which one relies, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; (S, L, Msb, K;) and in like manner, a person, or persons, to whom one trusts, &c.: applied in this sense to a family, or wife, (L, Msb,) as well as to property, (Msb,) &c.: (L, Msb:) and hence [particularly] signifying a wife. (L.) One says, [app. using it in this sense, as seems to be indicated by the context in the S,] فُلَانٌ أْبْنُ السَّكَنِ [Such a one is the son of the سَكَن]; and As used to say ↓ السَّكْنِ: (S, L:) accord. to Ibn-Habeeb, one says سَكَن and سَكْن. (L.) And it is said in the Kur [vi. 96], جَعَلَ

أْللَّيْلَ سَكَنًا He hath made, or appointed, the night to be a resource for ease, or quiet. (L.) And in the same [ix. 104], إِنَّ صَلَوَاتِكَ سَكَنٌ لَهُمْ, i. e. [Verily thy prayers for forgiveness are] a cause of ease, or quiet, to them. (Zj, L.) [And ↓ سُكْنَةٌ seems to have a similar meaning: for] ISh says, تَغْطِيَةُ الوَجْهِ عِنْدَ النَّوْمِ سُكْنَةٌ, app. [The covering of the face on the occasion of sleep is a cause of ease, or quiet,] in the case of loneliness, or of fear arising therefrom. (L.) And it is said in a trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ أَنْزِلْ عَلَيْنَا فِى أَرْضِنا سَكَنَهَا, meaning O God, send down upon us, in our land, the succour, or relief, of its inhabitants, [app. alluding to rain,] to which they may trust so as to be easy, or quiet, in mind. (L.) b2: Also i. q. مَسْكِنٌ. (Lh, L, and Ham p. 400.) See the latter word, in three places. b3: And Fire; [app. first applied thereto as being a cause of ease, or comfort;] (S, L, K;) as in the saying [of a rájiz], وَسَكَنٍ تُوقَدُ فِىمِظَلَّهْ [And a fire kindled in a large tent of hair-cloth, or in a booth, or shed], (S, L,) describing himself as driven to have recourse thereto by the night, and by a moist wind, or a wind cold with moisture; and [afterwards used without any allusion to its being a cause of ease, or comfort,] as in the saying of another, describing a cane, أَقَامَهَا بِسَكَنٍ وَأَدْهَانْ meaning He straightened it with fire and oils. (L.) b4: And Mercy, pity, or compassion. (K, [See also سَكِينَةٌ.]) b5: And i. q. بَرَكَةٌ [A blessing; prosperity, or good fortune; increase; &c.]. (K.) A2: See also سُكْنٌ:

سَكْنَةٌ A quiescence of a letter; its having no vowel immediately following; opposed to حَرَكَةٌ: pl. سَكَنَاتٌ.] b2: تَرَكْتُهُمْ عَلَى سَكَنَاتِهِمْ: see سَكِنَةٌ.

سُكْنَةٌ: see سَكَنٌ.

سَكِنَةٌ A place; [properly] a place of habitation or abode: pl. سَكِنَاتٌ. (L.) It is said in a trad., اِسْتَقِرُّوا عَلَى سَكِنَاتِكُمْ فَقَدِ انْقَطَعَتِ الهِجْرَةُ, (S, L, K, *) i. e. Rest ye, or remain ye, at your places, (S, L,) or in your places of habitation or abode, (S, L, K,) for emigration has [ended, having] become no longer needful. (L.) And one says, النَّاسُ عَلَى سَكِنَاتِهِمْ, [virtually] meaning, accord. to Fr, The people are in their right state: (S, L:) and in like manner is expl. the saying, تَرَكْتُهُمْ عَلَى سَكِنَاتِهِمْ and ↓ سَكَنَاتِهِمْ and نَزَلَاتِهِمْ; but the approved explanation is, [I left them] at their places of habitation, which is that of Th; or, as in the M, their places of alighting, or abode. (L.) b2: Also The part, of the neck, which is the resting-place of the head. (S, L, K.) So in the saying, (S, L,) attributed to several poets, (L,) بِضَرْبِ يُزِيلُ الهَامَ عَنْ سَكِنَاتِهِ [With a smiting that removes the heads from their resting-places on the necks].

(S, L, K) also (L) from أَسْكَنَهُ الدَّارَ, (S, L, K,) like as عُتْبَى is from إِعْتَابٌ, (S, L,) and so is ↓ سَكَنٌ, (Lh, L, K,) [which is app. mentioned in the Msb as an inf. n. of the former verb,] signifying, as also ↓ سُكْنٌ, [so in one place, as on the authority of Lth, in the L, and said in the MA to be, like سُكْنَى, an inf. n. of the verb first mentioned above,] The making [or giving] a man a place, or an abode, to inhabit, without rent; (L, and Ham p. 400 in explanation of the first of these words;) the term سُكْنَى being similar to عُمْرَى.

(Bd.) In a trad. of' Alee, respecting the building. of the Kaabeh, it is said, فَأَرْسَلَ اللّٰه إِلَيْهِ السَّكِينَةَ, meaning [And God sent to him] the wind swift in its passage.

↓ سَكَنٌ and ↓ سُكْنٌ, i. e. ↓ سُكْنَى [or مَسْكَنٌ, meaning A house in which is a place of habitation, or a lodging]: (L: [↓ سَكَنٌ and ↓ سُكْنٌ are there mentioned as syn., each of them, with مَسْكَنٌ and سُكْنَى, but in different places; and I incline to think that سُكْنٌ thus mentioned may be a mistranscription for سَكَنٌ: I have not found it elsewhere in this sense:]) and ↓ دَارِى لَكَ سُكْنَى, in which the last word is [said to be] virtually in the accus. case, as a denotative of state, meaning [My house is for thee,] as made [or given] to be inhabited, or as being inhabited: (Mgh:) or ↓ لَكَ دَارِى هٰذِهِ سُكْنَى, meaning To thee this my house is a lent dwelling-place: and المَرْأَةِ ↓ سُكْنَى means The wife's dwelling-place in which the husband lodges her.

(L, K.) مَسْكَنَةٌ (L, Msb, K) The state of him who is termed مِسْكِينٌ: primarily, lowliness, humility, or submissiveness: and meaning also lowness, abjectness, ignominiousness, abasement, or humiliation; and paucity of property; and an evil state or condition; also poverty of mind; and weakness; (IAth, L:) it is from السُّكُونُ [an inf. n. of سَكَنَ meaning as expl. in the first sentence of this art.]. (L.) مُسْكَانٌ, meaning “ an earnest,” or “ earnest money,” and of which [as well as of مِسْكِينٌ] the pl. is مَسَاكِينُ, belongs to art. مسك. (TA.) مِسْكِينٌ (S, Mgh, L, Msb, K, &c.) and مَسْكِينٌ, (L, Msb, K,) the latter anomalous, for there is no [other] instance of the measure مَفْعِيلٌ, (L,) of the dial. of Benoo-Asad, (L, Msb,) mentioned by Ks as heard by him from some one or more of that tribe, (L,) others saying مِسْكِينٌ, (Msb,) of the measure مِفْعِيلٌ (L) from السُّكُونُ, because the person to whom it is applied trusts to, or relies upon, others, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind: (Mgh, L, Msb:) primarily, (L,) it signifies Lowly, humble, or submissive; (IAth, Mgh, L;) and therefore the Prophet said, اَللّٰهُمَّ أَحْيِنِى مِسْكِينًا وَأَمِتْنِى مِسْكِينًا وَاْحْشُرْنِى فِى زُمْرَةِ المَسَاكِينِ [O God, make me to live lowly, and make me to die lowly, and gather me among the congregation of the lowly]: (Mgh, * L:) and hence it sometimes applies to him who possesses little and [sometimes] to him who possesses much: (L:) sometimes, (S,) it signifies (S, IAth, L, Msb, K) also (IAth, L) low, abject, ignominious, or in a state of abasement or humiliation; (S, IAth, L, Msb, K;) and weak; (S, L, K;) and subdued, or oppressed; though possessing riches or competence: (Msb:) [therefore] Sb says, it is one of the words expressive of pity, or compassion; [and as such may be rendered poor;] you say, مَرَرْت بِهِ المِسْكِينَ [I passed by him, I mean the poor man], putting it in the accus. case by the implication of أَعْنِى, though it may be in the genitive case as a substitute [for the pronoun], and in the nom. case by the suppression of هُوَ meant to be understood: (L:) in other cases, (S,) it is syn. with فَقِيرٌ, (S, L, Msb,) meaning (Msb) destitute, i. e. possessing nothing: (L, Msb, K:) or accord. to ISk, مسكين means thus; but the فقير is he who possesses a sufficiency of the means of subsistence: (Msb:) or the former means possessing somewhat; (L;) or [rather] needy, i. e. possessing what is not sufficient (L, K) for him (K) or for his family: (L:) or caused by poverty to have little power of motion; (L, K;) thus expl. by Aboo-Is-hák; but this is improbable; for مسكين has the meaning of an active part. n., and his explanation [like one of the others mentioned above] makes it to have that of a pass. part. n.: (L:) Yoo says the like of ISk: (Msb:) he used to say that the مسكين is in a harder condition than the فقير: (S, L, * Msb: *) he says, I asked an Arab of the desert, Art thou فقير? and he answered, No, by God, but rather مسكين; (S, L, * Msb;) but 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh says that this man may have meant that he was low, or abject, by reason of his distance from his people and his home; and that he does not think he meant anything but that: (L:) [J also adds,] it is said in a trad. that the مسكين is not he whom a mouthful or two mouthfuls will turn back, or away, but is only he who does not beg, and who is not known so that he may be given [anything]; (S;) but Ziyádet-Allah Ibn-Ahmad says that the فقير is he who sits in his house, not begging, and the مسكين is he who begs and is given; and hence it is argued that the latter is in a better condition than the former; though it indicates that the former is more highminded than the latter: (L:) accord. to As, the مسكين is better in condition than the فقير; and this is [said to be] the right assertion, (Mgh, L, Msb,) for the pl. of the former is applied in the Kur xviii. 78 to men possessing a ship, or boat, which is worth a considerable sum; (L, Msb;) but they may have been thus termed because they were humbled and abased by the tyranny of the king who took every ship, or boat, that he found upon the sea, by force; (L;) and it is said that these men were hirers, not owners, of the vessel: (TA voce فَقِيرٌ, q. v.:) 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh says, that the مسكين is better in condition than the فقير is shown by a passage in the Kur [ix. 60], where it is said that the poor-rates are for the فُقَرَآء and the مَسَاكِين; for you will find the classes to be there mentioned in such an order that the second is better in condition than the first, and the third than the second, and in like manner the fourth and the fifth and the sixth and the seventh and the eighth: and he says that the same is shown by the fact that the Arabs sometimes used مسكين as a proper name, but not فقير: (L:) or when these two words are used together, they differ in signification; and when used separately, they [sometimes] signify the same: (El-Bedr El-Karáfee, TA in art. فقر:) [see more voce فَقِيرٌ:] a woman is termed مِسْكِينَةٌ (Sb, S, L, Msb, K) and مِسْكِينٌ also; (S, L, K;) the former by way of assimilation to فَقِيرَةٌ; (Sb, S, L;) the latter being accord. to rule, for an epithet of the measure مِفْعِيلٌ is regularly applied alike to a male and a female; (S, Msb;) or, as Abu-l-Hasan says, this is only when it is an intensive epithet, which مِسْكِينَةٌ is not: (L:) the pl. is مَسَاكِينُ and مِسْكِينُونَ, (S, L, K,) applied to men, (K,) or to a company of people, (S, L,) and مِسْكِينَاتٌ applied to female. (S, L, K.)
