1 سَكَتَ, (S, Msb, TA,) aor. ـُ (Lth, TA,) inf. n. سُكُوتٌ and سَكْتٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and سُكَاتٌ (S, K) and سَاكُوتَةٌ, (K,) [all these ns. said in the K to signify the same, but this is not exactly the case, for the last is of an intensive form,] He was, or became, silent, mute, or speechless; contr. of نَطَقَ; (TA;) i. q. صَمَتَ: (Lth, Msb, TA:) or سَكَتَ is said of him who has the power, or faculty, of speech, but abstains from making use of it; whereas صَمَتَ is sometimes said of that which has not the power, or faculty, of speech: (Er-Rághib, MF, TA:) or سَكَتَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. سُكُوتٌ and سَكْتٌ, signifies he (a man) ceased, or stopped, speaking; and سَكَتَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. سَكْتٌ, (assumed tropical:) he (a man) was, or became, still, or quiet; syn. سَكَنَ: (Zj, TA:) [it is said that] ↓ اسكت, also, is syn. with صَمَتَ, like سَكَتَ; (Msb;) accord. to Az, one says of a man, صَمَتَ and أَصَمَتَ and سَكَتَ and ↓ أَسْكَتَ: (TA:) or, as some say, ↓ اسكت signifies he was, or became, silent, or he spoke not; and he ceased [from speech], or broke off [therefrom], or became cut short [therein]: (Msb:) or سَكَتَ signifies he was, or became, silent intentionally; and ↓ اسكت, he was, or became, silent by reason of thought or disease or fear: (TA:) or you say تَكَلَّمَ ثُمَّ سَكَتَ without ا [when you mean he spoke and then became silent, i. e., intentionally]; (S) but you say ↓ اسكت when you mean his speech became broken off, or cut short, and so he spoke not. (S, K.) It is said in a prov., سَكَتَ أَلْفًا ونَطَقَ خَلْفًا He held his tongue from a thousand words (سَكَتَ عَنْ أَلْفِ كَلِمَةٍ), and then uttered what was wrong. (ISk, S and Msb in art. خلف.) and you say [of the quiescent ه that is sometimes added at the end of a word, after a vowel or a letter of prolongation, as in لَمْ يَرْضَهْ and وَا زَيْدَــاهْ], هٰذِهِ هَآءُ السَّكْتِ [This is the هاء of pausation]. (A, TA.) One says also, of a she-camel, سَكَتَتْ, inf. n. سُكُوتٌ, meaning She uttered not the [grumbling] cry termed رُغَآء when the saddle was put upon her. (ISd, TA.) b2: [Hence سَكَتَ, aor. as above, inf. n. سَكْتٌ, as syn. with سَكَنَ, meaning as expl. above; and also (assumed tropical:) It was, or became, still, quiet, motionless, at rest, stilled, quieted, appeased, tranquillized, calm, allayed, assuaged, or quelled; it remitted; it subsided; and so ↓ اسكت.] You say, ضَرَبَهُ حَتَّى سَكَتَتْ حَرَكَتُهُ (A) or حركته ↓ أَسْكَتَتْ (TA) (tropical:) [He beat him until his motion became stilled]; and ↓ حتّى أَسْكَتَ (assumed tropical:) [until he became still]. (TA.) And سَكَتَ الغَضَبُ i. q. سَكَنَ, (S, Msb, TA,) meaning فَتَرَ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) The anger remitted; or became stilled, appeased, or allayed]; (TA:) as also ↓ اسكت: (Msb:) and سَكَتَ عَنْهُ الغَضَبُ (tropical:) [Anger, or the anger, became stilled so that it departed from him]. (A.) Hence, in the Kur [vii. 153], وَلَمَّا سَكَتَ عَنْ مُوسَى

الغَضَبُ, (S,) meaning, accord. to Zj, سَكَنَ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) And when the anger became stilled so that it departed from Moses]: or, as some say, the phrase is inverted, the meaning being وَلَمَّا سَكَتَ مُوسَى عَنِ الغَضَبِ [And when Moses was silent, ceasing from anger]: but the former is the explanation of those skilled in the Arabic language. (TA. [See also 4.]) You say also, سَكَتَ الحَرُّ, meaning (assumed tropical:) The heat became vehement, or intense, the wind being still. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] (assumed tropical:) He died: (K:) occurring in this sense in a trad. (TA.) b4: سَاكَتَنِى فَسَكَتُّ: see 3.

A2: سَكَتَ said of a horse, [from السُّكَيْتُ,] He came in tenth in a race. (TA.) 2 سَكَّتَ see 4, in two places.3 سَاْكَتَ ↓ سَاكَتَنِى فَسَكَتُّ [may mean He kept silence with me and I was silent: or he vied with me in keeping silence and I surpassed therein: or it may have both of these meanings; both being agreeable with analogy]. (S, TA; in neither of which it is explained.) 4 اسكت as an intrans. verb: see 1, in nine places. b2: He turned away, and spoke not; occurring in this sense in a trad.: and اسكت عَنِ الشَّىْءِ He turned away from the thing. (TA.) A2: اسكتهُ and ↓ سكّتهُ (S, A, Msb) both signify the same, said of God (S) [and of a man]; He made him, or rendered him, silent, mute, or speechless; (Msb;) [he silenced, or hushed, him;] namely, a person speaking. (A.) And اسكتهُ عَنِى [He made him to abstain from speaking of, or to, me]. (As, TA in art. نصت.) And اسكت الصَّبِىَّ بِسُكْتَةٍ

[He silenced, or hushed, the child with a سُكْتَة]. (Lh, S, A, K.) And أُسْكِتَ means He was silenced in a dispute or the like. (A, TA.) b2: [And hence, (assumed tropical:) He stilled, quieted, appeased, tranquillized, calmed, allayed, assuaged, or quelled, it.] In the Kur vii. 153, some read, ↓ وَلَمَّا سُكِتَ عَنْ مُوسَى الغَضَبُ and أُسْكِتَ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) And when the anger was stilled so that it was made to depart from Moses]. (Bd. [For the usual reading see 1, latter part.]) سَكْتٌ an inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (S, &c.) b2: and [hence,] A division [or pause] between two musical sounds, or notes, without breathing; (T, K, TA;) as also ↓ سَكْتَةٌ. (TA.) A2: See also سِكِّيتٌ, in two places.

سَكْتَةٌ A single state of silence, muteness, or speechlessness. (Msb.) One says, لِلْجُبْلَى صَرْخَةٌ ثُمَّ سَكْتَةٌ [To the pregnant woman is attributable a vehement cry, then a silence]. (A, TA.) b2: In prayer, A silence [or pause] after the commencement; [i. e. after what precedes the first recitation of the Opening Chapter of the Kur-án;] which is approved: and, in like manner, after the ending of the recitation of the Opening Chapter of the Kur-án. (T, TA.) b3: See also سَكْتٌ. b4: Also A certain disease [by which a person loses his powers of speech and motion], (S, K, TA,) well known among the physicians; (TA;) [i. e. apoplexy; thus called in the present day:] accord. to some, the word in this sense should be written ↓ سِكْتَةٌ, because it denotes a mode [of silence or stillness]; but this is incorrect, being at variance with the authority of transmission. (TA.) b5: See also the next paragraph: A2: and see سِكِّيتٌ.

سُكْتَةٌ: see سِكْتَةٌ. b2: Also A thing (S, A, Msb, K) of any kind (S) with which one silences, or hushes, or quiets, a child, (S, A, Msb, K,) or other person; (S, K;) [generally meaning a lullaby of any kind for a child:] and somewhat remaining in a bag or other receptacle, (K, TA,) i. e. of food. (TA.) One says, مَا لَهُ سُكْتَةٌ لِعِيَالِهِ, and ↓ سَكْتَةٌ, meaning He has not any food with which to silence, or quiet his family, or household. (Lh, TA.) سِكْتَةٌ is a subst. from سَكَتَ; [signifying Silence, &c.; like سُكُوتٌ used as a subst.;] as also ↓ سُكْتَةٌ. (Lh, TA.) b2: See also سَكْتَةٌ.

سُكَاتٌ Constant, or continual, silence. (Msb.) Hence, by way of comparison, one says, الإِفْحَامُ سُكَاتٌ [as though meaning The state of being silenced in a dispute, &c., is a state of constant, or continual, silence: but it seems to mean, more probably, الافحام (as an act. inf. n.) is an act that silences; agreeably with what here follows]. (Msb.) b2: رَمَاهُ بِسُكَاتٍ (Az, M, K) and ↓ سُكَاتَةٍ, (Az, S, M, A, K,) to which latter is generally added وَصُمَاتَةٍ, (M, TA,) He (a man, S, M, and God, TA) smote him, or afflicted him, with a thing that silenced him; (S, A, K;) thought by ISd to mean, with anxiety, or grief, that silenced him, or a thing in consequence of which he became silent: not expl. by Az. (TA.) b3: [In like manner] one says also, ↓ رَمَاهُ بِالمُسْكِتَاتِ [He smote him, or afflicted him, with the words, or acts, that silenced him]. (T in art. رم, from Aboo-Málik.) And بِهِ سُكَاتٌ [He has in him that which makes him silent]: said of one long silent in consequence of disease (A, TA) or of some evil in him. (TA.) And أَصَابَ سُكَاتًا He met with, or experienced, a disease that prevented him from speaking. (TA.) b4: هُوَعَلَى سُكَاتِ الأَمْرِ He is at the point of accomplishing the affair. (K.) And كُنْتُ عَلَى سُكَاتِ هٰذِهِ الحَاجَةِ I was at the point of attaining this want, or needful affair. (S.) b5: حَيَّةٌ سُكَاتٌ (tropical:) A serpent that bites before one has knowledge of it; (S, A, K, TA;) as also ↓ سَكُوتٌ. (TA.) سَكُوتٌ: see سِكِّيتٌ. b2: Applied to a she-camel, That does not utter the [grumbling] cry termed رُغَآء when the saddle is put upon her. (M, TA.) b3: See also سُكَاتٌ, last sentence.

سُكَيْتٌ: see سِكِّيتٌ. b2: السُّكَيْتُ and ↓ السُّكَّيْتُ, (S, Msb, K,) sometimes pronounced thus with teshdeed, (S,) the former being the more common, (Msb,) The tenth horse in a race; i. e. the last of them; (Msb;) the last horse among those that start together in a race, (S, K,) of the ten that are reckoned; (S;) also called الفِسْكِلُّ (S, Msb) and القَاشُورُ; those that come in after this one not being reckoned. (S.) The other nine are thus called, beginning with the first of these: المُجَلِّى, المُصَلِّى, المُسَلِّى, التَّالِى, المُرْتَاحُ, العَاطِفُ, الحَظِىُّ, المُؤَمَّلُ, and اللَّطِيمُ. (TA.) Sb says that سُكَيْتٌ is a contracted dim. of سُكَّيْتٌ; the uncontracted dim. of which is سُكَيْكِيتٌ. (TA.) b3: [Hence,] one says, فُلَانٌ سُكَيْتُ الحَلْبَةِ [lit. Such a one is the tenth horse of those that are started together for a wager], meaning (tropical:) such a one is scrupulously nice and exact, or neat, [and therefore deliberate,] in his handicraft. (A, TA.) سُكَاتَةٌ: see سُكَاتٌ.

سُكَّيْتٌ: see سِكِّيتٌ. b2: السُّكَّيْتُ: see السُّكَيْتُ.

(Az, K, TA.) سِكْتِيتٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

(TA.) إِسْكَاتَةٌ, of the measure إِفْعَالَةٌ from السُّكُوتُ; A silence [or pause] of short duration, requiring something to be said or read or recited after it: or an abstaining from elevating the voice in speech; not an absolute silence, in which one ceases, or abstains, from reading or reciting or speaking; for it occurs in a trad. in the words, مَا تَقُولُ فِى إِسْكَاتَتِكَ [What dost thou say in thy اسكاتة?]. (IAth, TA.) رَمَاهُ بِالمُسْكِتَاتِ: see سُكَاتٌ.

فيظ

1 فَاظَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. فَيْظٌ (ISk, T, S, M, K) and فُيُوظٌ and فَيَظَانٌ (S, M, K) and فَيْظَانٌ (Lh, TA) and فَيْظُوظَةٌ, (Lth, M, K,) He (a man, S) died; (ISk, T, S, M, K;) as also, (sometimes, S) ↓ فَاظَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. فَوْظٌ (ISk, T, S, M, K) and فَوَاظٌ; (S, K, TA; but in the CK, فُوَاظٌ, and there said to be with damm;) or, accord. to IJ, only the inf. n., فَوْظٌ, of the latter verb is used, though the verb itself is allowable on the ground of analogy. (M.) You say also, حَانَ فَيْظُهُ and ↓ فَوْظُهُ, [in the CK فُوْظُهُ,] The time came for his dying. (M, K.) In like manner, (S,) you say also, فَاظَتْ نَفْسُهُ His soul departed, or went forth; Lth, T, S, M;) on the authority of AO and Ks; and the like is related on the authority of Az; (S;) aor. ـِ (M,) inf. n. فَيْظٌ (Lth, T, M) and فَيْظُوظَةٌ; (Lth, T;) and [accord. to some,] فَاظَتْ نَفْسُهُ, inf. n. فَوْظٌ: (M:) or, when the نفس is mentioned, you say, فَاضَتْ, with ض: (K:) As says, I heard Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà say that one should not say فَاظَتْ نَفْسُهُ, (T, * S, M, *) but فاظ, (S, M,) meaning “ he died; ” and not فَاضَ, with ض, decidedly; (S;) or not فَاضَتْ: (T:) [but what was said by As respecting these two verbs has been stated more fully, and variously, in art. فيض, q. v.:] AO says that فاظت نَفْسُهُ is of the dial. of Keys; and فاضت, of the dial. of Temeem: Fr says that the people of El-Hijáz and Teiyi say the former; and Kudá'ah and Temeem and Keys say the latter: AHát says, I heard Az say that Benoo-Dabbeh alone say the latter; and ElMázinee relates the like on the authority of Az. (TA.) b2: You say also, فَاظَ نَفْسَهُ, (Ks, S, M, K,) aor. ـِ (Ks, T,) He vomited forth his soul: (Ks, S, M, K:) the verb being trans. as well as intrans. (Ks, S.) 4 افاظهُ He (God) caused him to die. (K, TA.) And you say also, ضَرَبْتُهُ حَتَّى أَفَظْتُ نَفْسَهُ [I beat him, or smote him, until I made his soul to depart, or go forth]. (S.) And لَأُفِيظَنَّ نَفْسَكَ [I will assuredly cause thy soul to depart, or go forth] (M.) And افاظهُ اللّٰهُ نَفْسَهُ [God caused him to vomit forth his soul]. (Ks, T, S, M.) تفيّظوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ They constrained themselves to vomit forth their souls. (S, TA.) [But in one copy of the S, I find يُفِيظُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ, expl. as meaning They cause to vomit forth their souls; which suggests that the right reading may perhaps be يُفِيظُوا: or it may be يَفِيظُوا, from فَاظَ نَفْسَهُ.]

ليس

1 لَيْسَ a word denoting negation: (S, A, K:) it is a verb in the pret. tense, (S, A, K, Mughnee,) having no other tense, (Sb, S, M, Msb, Mughnee,) nor a part. n. nor an inf. n.; (Sb, M, Msb; *) of the measure فَعِلَ; (Mughnee;) originally لَيِسَ, from which it is contracted by the suppression of a vowel, (Sb, * S, M, * K, Mughnee, *) being found difficult of pronunciation, (S,) [i. e.,] to render it easy to pronounce, (K,) like عَلْمَ for عَلِمَ, (Sb, M,) the ى not being changed into ا (Sb, S, M) because it is imperfectly inflected, being used in the pret. form for the present, (S,) [i. e.,] because it has no future, nor part. n., nor inf. n., nor derivation, wherefore, not being perfectly inflected like its coordinates, it is made like that which is not a verb, as لَيْتَ: (Sb, M:) what shows it to be a verb, (S, Mughnee,) not a particle occupying the place of مَا, as Ibn-Es-Sarráj and some others after him have asserted, (Mughnee,) though not perfectly inflected like [other] verbs, (S,) is their saying لَسْتَ and لَسْتُمَا (S, Mughnee) and لَسْتُمْ (S) and لَيْسَا and لَيْسُوا and لَيْسَتْ [&c.], (Mughnee,) like as they say ضَرَبْتَ and ضَرَبْتُمَا and ضَرَبْتُمْ [&c.]: (S:) we have not determined its measure to be فَعَلَ, because this is not contracted; nor فَعُلَ, because there is no verb of this measure with ى for its medial radical letter, except هَيُؤَ; but لُسْتَ has been heard; so, accord. to this form, it may be like هَيُؤَ: (Mughnee:) the Benoo-Dabbeh say لُسْتُ and لُسْنَا in the sense of لَسْتُ and لَسْنَا; and some of them say لِسْتُ: (TA, art. لوس:) but Sb says, that the Arabs did not say لِسْتَ, like as they said خِفْتَ, because ليس is not perfectly inflected like [other] verbs. (M.) [There is also another opinion respecting its origin, which will be mentioned in the course of this article.] It [is generally a particular (not a universal) negative, and] denotes the negation of a thing at the present time; (M, Mughnee;) [i. e.] it denotes [thus] the negation of its predicate: (Msb:) and has the same government as the verbكَانَ and its coordinates; (S;) governing the subject in the nom., and the predicate in the accus.: (S, Mughnee:) as when you say, لَيْسَ زَيْدٌ قَائِمًا [Zeyd is not a person standing]: (Msb:) and by means of the context, it denotes the negation of a thing at a time not the present; as in the saying of El-Aashà [respecting Mohammad], لَهُ نَافِلَاتٌ مَا يُغِبُّ نَوَالُهَا وَلَيْسَ عَطَآءُ اليَوْمِ مَانِعَهُ غَدَا [He has bounties the bestowing of which is not on alternate days; and the giving of to-day will not be a preventer of it to-morrow]; and [sometimes when it is followed by a verb, as] in the saying, لَيْسَ خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ مِثْلَهُ [God has not created the like of him, or it.] (Mughnee.) But it differs from its coordinates in that the prep. بِ may be prefixed to its predicate: as in the saying, لَيْسَ زَيْدٌ بِمُنْطَلِقٍ [Zeyd is not going away]; the ب being a means of the verb's being trans., and also corroborative of the negation: and one may optionally not introduce it, because one may do without the corroborative, and because some verbs are trans. sometimes by means of a prep. and sometimes without a prep., as اِشْتَقْتُكَ and اِشْتَقْتُ إِلَيْكَ. (S.) It also differs from its coordinates in that its predicate may not be put before it: for you may say مُحْسِنًا كَانَ زَيْدٌ, but not مُحْسِنًا لَيْسَ زَيْدٌ: (S:) or some allow this latter; but others disallow it. (Ibn-'Akeel on the Alfeeyeh, section on كان and its coordinates.) It is also used as an exceptive particle, (S, M, Mughnee,) in the place of إِلَّا; (S, Mughnee;) in which case [also] its subject [which is understood] is in the nom. case, and its predicate in the accus.: (S:) you say, جَآءَنِى

القَوْمُ لَيْسَ زَيْدًــا [The company of men came to me, except Zeyd]; as though you said, لَيْسَ الجَائِى

زَيْدًــا. (S, M: but in the latter, instead of جاءنى, we find أَتَى; and instead of الجائى, we find الآتِى.) You may also say, جَآءَنِى القَوْمُ لَيْسَكَ [The company of men came to me, excepting thee]; but the separate pronoun, إِيَّاكَ, is here better. (S.) When the predicate after it is connected with إِلَّا, as in the ex. here next following, Benoo-Temeem make it in the nom. case: thus they say, لَيْسَ الطِّيبُ إِلَّا المِسْكُ [It is not perfume, except musk; meaning, nothing is perfume except musk]: which has been resolved is several ways; some holding الطيب to be the subject of ليس: but its being peculiar to the dial. of Temeem refutes the explanations here referred to: some, again, hold ليس to be here used as a particle; and so in the saying لَيْسَ خَلَقَ اللّٰهُ مِثْلَهُ, mentioned above. (Mughnee.) Sometimes it is used in the sense of لَا التَّبْرِئَةِ [the لا which denies in a general manner to the uttermost, i. e., universally, or totally]; as is said in the K, except that in all the copies thereof we find وَإِنَّمَا put by mistake for وَرُبَّمَا: (TA:) [so in the saying in the Kur, ii. 194, لَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ, which is the same as لَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكُمْ in verse 235 of the same chapter, meaning, There shall be no crime, or sin, chargeable upon you]. Sometimes, also, it is used as a connective particle, (Mughnee,) in the sense of لا so used: (TA:) as in the saying [of a poet], أَيْنَ المَفَرُّ وَالإِلٰهُ الغَالِبُ وَالأَشْرَمُ المَغْلُوبُ لَيْسَ الغَالِبُ [Where is the place of flight when God is the pursuer, and El-Ashram (meaning Abrahah) is the overcome, not the overcomer?]: which has been resolved by supposing الغالب to be the subject of ليس, and the predicate to be suppressed; the latter being said by Ibn-Málik to be an annexed pronoun referring to El-Ashram; so that the meaning is لَيْسَهُ الغَالِبُ [the overcomer is not he]. (Mughnee.) It is said (M, K) by Fr, (M,) and also by Kh, (TA,) that the original of لَيْسَ is لَا أَيْسَ; (M, K [in the latter of which I read أَوْ أَصْلُهُ, as in several copies of the K, or rather أَوْ أَصْلُهَا, as corrected in the TA, instead of أَوْ مَعْنَاهُ, the reading in the CK];) and this, says Fr, is shown by the saying, جِئْ بِهِ مِنْ أَيْسَ وَلَيْسَ, i. e., [Bring thou him, or it,] from where he, or it, is, and is not: (M:) or اِيتِنِى مِنْ حَيْثُ أَيْسَ وَلَيْسَ i. e., [Come thou to me, or probably, the right reading is اِيتِنِى بِهِ bring thou to me him, or it, (as I find in a copy of the K, in which به has been added in red ink, and in the A I find إِيتِ بِهِ,)] from where he, or it, is, and he, or it, is not: (K:) or the meaning is, مِنع حَيْثُ لَا وُجْدَ [from where there is no finding; or no being found, or no existence; or no power, or ability]: (K, * TA:) or أَيْسَ means مَوْجُودٌ [found, or existing], and لَا أَيْسَ [means] لَا مَوْجُودٌ [not found, or not existing], and is contracted [into لَيْسَ]: (K:) [but the last rendering of ايس and لا ايس seems to be taken from an explanation, not literal, of another saying; مَا يَعْرِفُ

أَيْسَ مِنْ لَيْسَ he knows not a thing existing from a thing not existing.] Aboo-'Alee relates, that Sb said, جِئْ بِهِ مِنْ حَيْثُ وَلَيْسَا [Bring thou him, or it, from where he, or it, is and is not]; meaning, وَلَيْسَ, the fet-hah of the س being made full in sound, on account of the pause. (M.) In the saying of a certain poet, قَدْ رُسَّتِ الحَاجَاتُ عِنْدَ قَيْسِ

إِذْ لَا يَزَالُ مُولَعًا بِلَيْسِ [Wants have been forgotten as old things (so رُسَّت is explained in the M, as used here, in art. رس,) with Keys, since he ceases not to be addicted to the use of the word leysa], it is made by him a noun, and declined. (M.)

صمت

1 صَمَتَ, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, M, Msb,) inf. n. صَمْتٌ (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K) and صُمْتٌ (M, L, TA) and صُمُوتٌ and صُمَاتٌ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) or the first of these is the inf. n. and the rest are simple substs.; (M;) and ↓ اصمت, (S, M, Msb,) inf. n. إِصْمَاتٌ; (K;) and ↓ صمّت, inf. n. تَصْمِيتٌ; (S, K; but only the inf. n. is mentioned;) He was, or became, silent, mute, or speechless; syn. سَكَتَ: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he was, or became, long silent or mute or speechless: (M, Mgh:) but there is a difference between سَكَتَ and صَمَتَ; for the former is said of him who has the power, or faculty, of speech, but abstains from making use of it; whereas the latter is sometimes said of that which has not the power, or faculty, of speech. (Er-Rághib, MF and TA in art. سكت.) The Arabs say, (Ks, TA,) and it is said in a trad., (TA,) لَا صَمْتَ يَوْمًا إِلَى اللَّيْلِ, or يَوْمٌ, or يَوْمٍ, i. e. There shall be no keeping silence a whole day [until night]. (Ks, K, TA. [In the “ Jámi' es-Sagheer,” we find لا صُمَاتَ instead of لا صَمْتَ: and El-Munáwee, in his Commentary on that work, says that the keeping silence for a whole day is forbidden by the words of this trad. because it is an imitation of a Christian custom.]) And إِذْنُهَا صُمَاتُهَا [in another trad., relating to the asking a virgin if she consent to be married, lit. Her permission is her silence,] means her silence is like her permission, i. e. it suffices. (Msb.) One says also, جَآءَ بِمَا صَآءَ وَصَمَتَ (assumed tropical:) [He brought what was vocal and what was mute]; مَا صَآءَ meaning sheep, or goats, and camels; and مَا صَمَتَ, gold and silver: (IAar, TA:) صَآءَ in this saying is formed by transposition from صَأَى [q. v.]. (S in art. صأى.) 2 صمّتهُ, (M, A, K,) inf. n. تَصْمِيتٌ; (S;) and ↓ اصمتهُ; (M, A, Msb, K;) He made him, or rendered him, silent, mute, or speechless: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he made him, or rendered him, long silent or mute or speechless. (M.) b2: [Hence,] صَمِّتِى صَبِيَّكِ Feed thy child with that which will silence it [or quiet it]. (A, TA.) b3: and صمّت الرَّجُلَ He inclined to the man who complained to him by reason of his complaint [and so quieted him; or he cared for the complaint of the man and so quieted him; see مُصَمِّتٌ]. (M, TA.) A2: See also 1, first sentence.4 اصمتهُ: see 2. b2: [Hence,] لَمْ يُصْمِتْهُ ذٰلِكَ That did not suffice him [so as to quiet him]: said only of what is eaten and drunk. (TA.) b3: and اصمتهُ He made it to be solid, not hollow; without a cavity. (A'Obeyd, S, K.) [For that which is without a cavity is generally non-sonorous.] b4: And أُصْمِتَتِ الأَرْضُ, or أَصْمَتَت, (accord. to different copies of the K, the latter accord. to the O,) The land became altered (أَحَالَت) [so as to be rugged, or hard, app. in consequence of its having been left untilled and unsown,] at the end of two years, (O, K,) and had rugged patches of urine and dung. (O.) A2: See also 1, first sentence. b2: أَصْمَتَ also signifies He was, or became, tonguetied, (O, TA,) and spoke not; (TA;) said of a sick man. (O, TA.) صُمْتَةٌ a subst. from صَمَتَ [as such signifying Silence, muteness, or speechlessness; like صَمْتٌ used as a subst., and صُمْتٌ &c.; and like سُكْتَةٌ and سِكْتَةٌ]. (M, TA.) b2: And (M, TA) A thing, (M, A, K, TA,) i. e. food, (A, K, TA,) or the like, (K, TA,) such as a date, or something pretty, (TA,) with which one silences [or quiets] (M, A, K, TA) a child; (A, K, TA;) as also ↓ صِمْتَةٌ; (Lh, M, TA;) like سُكْتَةٌ [in this sense as well as in the former sense]. (S.) A date is called صُمْتَةُ الصَّبِىِّ [The quieter of the child], (M, TA,) and صُمْتَةُ الصَّغِيرِ [The quieter of the little one], so in a trad., because when the little one cries, or weeps, he is silenced with it. (TA.) One says, مَا عِنْدَهَا صُمْتَةُ لَيْلَةٍ She has not as much as would silence [or quiet] her child during one night. (A.) and مَا لَهُ صُمْتَةٌ لِعِيَالِهِ and ↓ صِمْتَةٌ He has not what would feed and silence [or quiet] his household, or family. (Lh, M.) صِمْتَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

مَا ذُقْتُ صَمَاتًا [I did not taste, or have not tasted,] anything. (K.) رَمَاهُ بِصُمَاتِهِ, (Az, K, A, K, [in a copy of the M بصِمَاتِه, but this I think a mistranscription,]) or ↓ بِصُمَاتَةٍ, (K accord. to the TA, and so in the M in art. سكت,) [both probably correct, for] one says also بِسُكَاتِهِ (Az, S) and بِسُكَاتَةٍ, (S, M, A, K, in art. سكت,) He (a man, Az, S, or God, A) smote him, or afflicted him, with a thing that silenced him. (Az, S, M, A, K.) [See رَمَاهُ بِسُكَاتٍ, in art. سكت.] b2: صُمَاتٌ signifies also Thirst: (As, TA:) or quickness of thirsting, (M, K, TA,) in men and in beasts. (M, TA.) فُلَانٌ عَلَى صِمَاتِ الأَمْرِ Such a one is, or was, at the point of accomplishing the affair. (S.) And أَنَا عَلَى صِمَاتِ حَاجَتِى I am at the point of accomplishing my want. (M.) And بَاتَ عَلَى

صِمَاتِ أَمْرِهِ He passed the night resolved upon his affair. (TA.) And هُوَ بِصِمَاتِهِ He is at the point of [attaining] his purpose: (M, TA:) Aboo-Málik says that صِمَاتٌ signifies قَصْدٌ [i. e. purpose, intention, &c.]. (TA.) And one says, بَاتَ مِنَ القَوْمِ عَلَى صِمَاتٍ He passed the night in a place where he was seen and heard by the people, near to them. (S, TA.) دِرْعٌ صَمُوتٌ (tropical:) A coat of mail from which no sound is heard to proceed when it is put on, (S, A, L, TA,) it being soft to the feel, not rough nor rusty: (L, TA:) or a heavy coat of mail.

And جَارِيَةٌ صَمُوتُ الخَلْخَالَيْنِ (tropical:) A girl, or young woman, having thick legs, form whose pair of anklets no sound is heard to proceed, (K, TA,) by reason of their being depressed in her legs. (TA. [لَها in the CK is erroneously put for لَهُمَا.]) And سَيْفٌ صَمُوتٌ (assumed tropical:) A sword that penetrates deeply into the thing struck with it [so as not to make a sound by its being repelled by a bone]. (K, TA.) And ضَرْبَةٌ صَمُوتٌ (assumed tropical:) A blow [with a sword or the like] passing among the bones, not recoiling from a bone (M, K, TA) so as to make a sound. (TA.) b2: And شَهْدَةٌ صَمُوتٌ (tropical:) A honey-comb that is full; not having a cell empty. (A, K.) صُمَاتَة: see رَمَاهُ بِصُمَاتِهِ, above.

صِمِّيتٌ, applied to a man, (S,) i. q. سِكِّيتٌ, (S, K, TA,) [i. e. Much, or often, silent or mute or speechless; or] long silent &c. (TA.) صَامِتٌ Silent, mute, or speechless: (Msb:) pl. صَامِتُونَ (Kur vii. 192) [and صُمُوتٌ, occurring in the K in art. زم]. [Hence,] one says, مَا لَهُ صَامِتٌ وَلَا نَاطِقٌ (tropical:) [He has not mute nor vocal property; or he has not dead nor live stock]: (S, M, A:) by the former are meant gold and silver; (S, M, Msb, K;) and by the latter, camels, (S, K,) and sheep or goats, (S,) or animals: (M:) i. e. he has not aught. (S.) b2: Also, of camels, (assumed tropical:) Twenty, (O, K,) and the like. (O.) b3: And of milk, (assumed tropical:) Such as is thick. (S, O, K.) أَصْمَتُ: see مُصْمِتٌ.

لَقِيتُهُ بِوَحْشِ إِصْمِتَ and بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمِتَ Az explains as meaning [I met him, or met with him, or found him,] in a desert place, in which was no one to cheer by his company: (S: [and in like manner the latter phrase is expl. in the M:]) accord. to Kr, بِبَلْدَةٍ إِصْمِتَ; but the phrase commonly known is بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمِتَ: (M:) or تَرَكْتُهُ بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمِتَ [I left him] in the desert, or waterless desert: or in such a place that it was not known where he was: (K:) and بِصَحْرَآءِ إِصْمِتَ (M, K) meaning as above, (K,) or having the latter of these two meanings: (M:) and بِوَحْشِ

إِصْمِتَ and ↓ إِصْمِتَةَ, (M, K,) mentioned, but not expl., by Lh, (M,) meaning as above, (K,) or app. meaning in the desert, or waterless desert: (M:) and some say, بِوَحْشِ الإِصْمِتَيْنِ: (TA:) اصمت is as above, with the disjunctive alif; and also with the conjunctive [i. e. اصْمِتَ]: (O, K:) it is imperfectly decl., (S, MF, TA,) because combining the quality of a proper name with the fem. gender or with the measure of a verb: (MF, TA:) it is said that the desert, or waterless desert, is thus called because in it one fears much; as though everyone [therein] said to his companion, اصمت [i. e. اُصْمُتْ or أَصْمِتْ, “Be thou silent ”]; like as they say of a مَهْمَه that it is so called because a man [therein] says to his companion, مَهْ مَهْ: (MA:) [for] accord. to some the word إِصْمِت is an imperative changed into a subst., and hence the ء is disjunctive, and it may be with kesr accord. to a dial. var. [of the imperative] that has not reached us: accord. to Yákoot, it is the name of a particular desert; but others say that the proper name [of that desert] is وَحْشُ إِصْمِتَ. (TA in art. وحش.) إِصْمِتَة: see the next preceding paragraph.

مُضْمَتٌ [primarily signifies Made, or rendered, silent, mute, or speechless. b2: And hence,] Solid; not hollow; having no cavity. (A 'Obeyd, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K.) [For that which is without a cavity is generally non-sonorous.] b3: And A door, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and a lock, (M, K,) closed, or locked, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) so that one cannot find the way to open it. (S, M, * K. *) A poet says, وَمِنْ دُونِ لَيْلَى مُصْمَتَاتُ المَقَاصِرِ [And in the way to Leylà are what are closed, &c., of chambers to which the owner alone has access: مَقَاصِر being used by poetic license for مَقَاصَير, pl. of مَقْصُورَةٌ]. (TA.) b4: Also A garment, or piece of cloth, of one, unmixed, colour. (M, Mgh, K.) The garment thus termed that is disliked is That of which the warp and woof are both of silk: or such as is woven of undressed silk, and then dressed, and dyed of one colour: (Mgh:) [or] such as is termed مُصْمَتٌ مِنْ خَزٍّ, i. e. consisting entirely of silk, not mixed with cotton nor with other material, was forbidden by the Prophet. (TA.) b5: [Hence,] فَرَسٌ مُصْمَتٌ A horse of one, unmixed, colour; in which is no colour differing from the rest: (S, A, TA:) pl. خَيْلٌ مُصْمَتَاتٌ. (TA.) And أَدْهَمُ مُصْمَتٌ [applied to a horse] (assumed tropical:) Black unmixed with any other colour. (TA.) b6: [Hence also,] إِنَآءٌ مُصْمَتٌ (assumed tropical:) A vessel not silvered, or not ornamented with silver. (Mgh.) And بَيْضَةٌ مُصْمَتَةٌ (assumed tropical:) A helmet made of one piece. (AO, TA in art. بيض.) And حَلْىٌ مُصْمَتٌ (assumed tropical:) A woman's ornament that is not intermixed with another: or, accord. to Ahmad Ibn-'Obeyd, that has stuck fast upon its wearer, so that it does not move about; such as the armlet, and the anklet, and the like. (TA.) b7: The فَهْد [or lynx, an animal proverbial for much sleeping,] is said to be مُصْمتُ النَّوْمِ (tropical:) [app. meaning A heavy sleeper]. (A, TA.) b8: الحُرُوفُ المُصْمَتَةُ are All the letters [of the Arabic alphabet] except those called حُرُوفُ الذَّلَاقَةِ [or الحُرُوفُ الذُّلْقُ]; (M, TA;) i. e. (TA) all the letters except those comprised in the phrase مُرْ بِنَفْلٍ. (K, TA.) [What is here rendered “ except ” (i. e. مَا عَدَا) is said by MF to be omitted in most of the copies of the K.] b9: See also مُصَمَّتْ.

مُصْمِتٌ Tongue-tied; (O, TA;) not speaking: (TA:) applied to a sick man [when he is unable to speak]: (O, TA:) and ↓ أًصْمَتُ [signifies the same,] i. q. أَبْهَمُ and مُبْهَمٌ. (So in copies of the K in art. بهم. [In one of the explanations which I have given of مُبْهَمٌ in consequence of an omission (to be supplied in Book II.), أَصْمَتُ is made syn. with مُصْمَتٌ.]) أَلْفٌ مُصَمَّتٌ (assumed tropical:) A thousand completed; (M, K;) like مُصَتَّمٌ; (M;) as also ↓ مُصْمَتٌ. (K.) مُصَمِّتٌ [A silencer, or quieter: and hence, b2: ] One who cares for another's complaint. (M, * Meyd, TA.) One says, (M, Meyd, TA,) i. e. a rájiz says, addressing a camel belonging to him, (Har p. 642,) إِنَّكَ لَا تَشْكُو إِلَى مُصَمِّتِ فَاصْبِرْ عَلَى الحِمْلِ الثَّقِيلِ أَوْ مُتِ [Verily thou complainest not to one who cares for thy complaint; therefore endure with patience the bearing of the heavy burden, or die]. (M, Meyd, TA.) تَشْكُو إِلَى غَيْرِ مُصَمِّتٍ, i. e. [Thou complainest] to one who cares not for thy case, is a proverb. (Meyd.)

ذكر

1 ذَكَرَهُ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. ذِكْرَى, (S, A, Msb,) which is fem., (Msb,) and imperfectly decl., (S,) and ذِكْرٌ (A, K) [and ذُكْرٌ, or, accord. to EtTebreezee, (Ham p. 26,) the latter of these two but not the former, or, as is said in the Msb., both are properly substs., and a distinction is made between them, as will be shown below,] and تَذْكَارٌ, (K,) He preserved it in his memory: (K, * TA:) he remembered it; (S, A;) as also ذَكَرَهُ بِقَلْبِهِ [to distinguish it from ذَكَرَ in a sense afterwards to be explained], (S, Msb,) and ↓ تذكّرهُ; (S, A;) and ↓ اِدَّكَرَهُ (S, K, TA,) originally اِذْتَكَرَهُ (S,) and اِذَّكَرَهُ (TA, and so in the CK,) and اِذْدَكَرَهُ (K,) and ↓ استذكرهُ, (Az, K,) signify the same as تذكّرهُ (K) [as explained above]: ↓ تذكّرهُ signifies also he became reminded of it; (Msb;) [and so ↓ ادّكرهُ and its variations: and ↓ استذكرهُ seems properly to signify, as also ↓ تذكرّهُ, he recollected it; or called it to mind: and he sought to remember it: and ↓ استذكر and ↓ تذكّر used intransitively, he sought, or endeavoured, to remember.] Yousay, ذَكَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ بَعْدَ النِّسْيَانِ [I remembered the thing after forgetting]: (S:) and ذَكَرْتُ المَنْسِىَّ and ↓ تَذَكَّرْتُهُ [I remembered the thing forgotten, and I became reminded of it, or I recollected it]: (A:) and بَعْدَ أَمَهٍ ↓ ادّكر, occurring in the Kur [xii. 45, accord. to one reading of the last word], means He remembered [or became reminded] after forgetting. (S) And رَبَطَ فِى

بِهِ حَاجَتِهِ ↓ إِصْبَعِهِ خَيْطًا يَسْتَذْكِرُ [He tied upon his finger a thread or string, seeking to remember, or recollect, or call to mind, thereby the thing that he wanted: such a thread or string is commonly called رَتِيمَةٌ:]: (Az:) and ↓ استذكر is used alone with the like signification [i. e. He sought to remember]: and also signifies He studied a book and preserved it in his memory, accord. to the K; but accord. to other lexicons, he studied a thing in order to remember it, or preserve it in his memory: (TA:) you say, بِدِرَاسَتِهِ ↓ استذكر He sought to remember by his studying of a book. (A.) b2: ذَكَرَ حَقَّهُ, (K,) inf. n. ذِكْرٌ (TA,) He was mindful of his right, or claim; and did not neglect it. (K.) Agreeably with this explanation, the words in the Kur [ii. 231, &c.,] وَاذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْكُمْ have been rendered And be ye mindful of, and neglect not to be thankful for, the favour of God conferred upon you: like as an Arab says to his companion, اُذْكُرْ حَقِّىعَلَيْكَ Be thou mindful of my claim upon thee; and neglect it not. (TA.) b3: [In like manner also are explained the words] وَاذْكُرُوا مَا فِيهِ in the Kur [ii. 60], And study ye what is in it, and forget it not: or think ye upon what is in it: or do ye what is in it. (Bd.) b4: One says, مَا اسْمُكَ أَذْكُرْ, (Fs and Lb, and so in a copy of the K,) or أَذْكُرْهُ, (so in another copy of the K, and in the TA,) the hemzeh of أَذْكُرْ being disjunctive, (Lb, K,) [in the CK we find مَا اسمُكَ اَذْكِرْهُ بقطعِ الهَمْزَةِ مِنْ اَذْكَر, as though the reading were أَذْكَرْهُ with a disjunctive hemzeh from أَذْكَرَ, which is manifestly wrong,] and with fet-h, because it is the hemzeh of the first person of a triliteral [unaugmented] verb, and with the ر mejzoom, because it is the complement of an interrogative phrase: (Lb:) it is expressive of disapprobation, (Lb, K,) and means, Acquaint me with thy name: [or, lit., what is thy name?] I will remember it, or I will bear it in mind (اذكره): the conditional phrase [if thou tell it to me] is suppressed because unnecessary, on account of frequent usage of the saying, and because what remains is indicative of it: (Lb, MF:) the saying is a prov.; and is also related with the conjunctive hemzeh, [اذْكُرْ, or اذْكُرْ; in which case it is most appropriately rendered, What is thy name? Say: or Tell it] but the reading with the disjunctive hemzeh is that which is commonly known: (TA:) [for]

A2: ذَكَرَهُ, aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. ذِكْرَى, fem., [and imperfectly decl,] (Msb,) and ذِكْرٌ and ذُكْرٌ, (TA,) [or the former of these two (which is the most common of all) but not the latter, or, as is said in the Msb, both are properly substs., and a distinction is made between them, as will be shown below,] also signifies He mentioned it; told it; related it; said it; (TA;) and so ذَكَرَهُ بِلِسَانِهِ [to distinguish it from ذَكَرَ in the first sense explained above]. (S, Msb.) You say ذَكَرْتُ لِفُلَانٍ حَدِيثَ كَذَاوَكَذَا I mentioned, or told, or related, to such a one the story of such and such things. (TA.) And ذَكَرَ امْرَأُ بِمَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ [He mentioned, or spoke of, a man as having that attribute which was not in him]. (El-Jámi' es-Sagheer voce مَنْ) b2: And ذَكَرَهُ (assumed tropical:) He magnified Him, namely, God; celebrated, lauded, or praised, Him; asserted his unity; (Zj;) [saying سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ, and الحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ, and اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ; or لَاإِلَاهَ إِلَّااللّٰهُ; or هُوَاللّٰهُ; or the like.] b3: [And, in like manner, (assumed tropical:) He spoke well of him, namely, a man; mentioned him with approbation; eulogized, praised, or commended, him: for ذَكَرَهُ بِالجَمِيلِ, or بِخَيْرٍ

See ذِكْرٌ below.] b4: Also, contr., [for ذَكَرَهُ بِالقَبِيحِ or بِشَرٍّ] (assumed tropical:) He spoke evil of him; men-tioned him with evil words; (Fr;) mentioned his vices, or faults; spoke evil of him behind his back, or in his absence, saying of him what would grieve him if he heard it, but saying what was true; or merely said of him what would grieve him: an elliptical expression in this and in the contrary sense; what is meant being known. (Zj.) One says to a man, لَئِنْ ذَكَرْتَنِى لَتَنْدَمَنَّ, meaning [Verily, if thou mention me] with evil words [thou will assuredly repent]: and in like manner the verb is used in the Kur xxi. 37 and 61: and 'Antarah says, لَاتَذْكُرِى فَرَسِى وَمَا أَطْعَمْتُهُ فَيَكُونَ جِلْدُكَ مِثْلَ جِلْدِ الأَجْرَبِ meaning Mention thou not reproachfully [my horse, and what I have given him for food, for, if thou do, thy skin will be like the skin of the scabby]: (Fr, T:) but AHeyth disallows this signification of the verb, and explains the saying of 'Antarah as meaning, Be not thou fond of mentioning my horse, and my preferring him before the family. (T, TA.) b5: ذَكَرَ فُلَانَةَ, inf. n ذِكْرٌ, [expressly said to be] with kesr, [so in the CK, and I think it the right reading,] or ذَكْرٌ, [so in a MS. copy of the K, and in the TA,] with fet-h, [so in the TA,] He demanded such a one in marriage: or he addressed himself to demand her in marriage: (K:) [as though the mentioning a woman implied a desire to demand her in marriage:] it occurs in one of these two senses in a trad. (TA.) A3: ذَكَرَهُ, inf. n. ذَكْرٌ, with fet-h, He struck him upon his penis. (K.) 2 ذكّرهُ إِيَّاهُ, (S, A, * Msb, K,) and ذكّرهُ بِهِ, (Kur xiv. 5, &c.,) inf. n. تَذْكِرَةٌ (A, TA) and تَذْكِيرٌ, (K, TA,) and quasi-inf. n. ↓ ذِكْرَى imperfectly decl.; (A, * K, * TA;) and ايّاهُ ↓ اذكرهُ; (S, Msb, K;) He reminded him of, or caused him to remember, him, or it. (S, Msb, K.) b2: And ذكّر, (TA,) inf. n. تَذْكِيرٌ (K) [and تَذْكِرَةٌ also, as in the Kur xx. 2], He exhorted; admonished; exhorted to obedience; gave good advice, and reminded of the results of affairs; reminded of what might soften the heart, by the mention of rewards and punishments. (K, TA.) Thus the verb is used in the Kur lxxxviii. 21. (TA.) A2: Also ذكّرهُ, inf. n. تَذْكِيرُ, He made it (a word) masculine; contr. of أَنَّثَهُ. (S, * Msb, K. *) b2: In the Kur [ii. 282], فَتُذَكِّرَ إِحْدَاهُمَا الأُخْرَى is said by some to signify (assumed tropical:) That one of them may make the other to be in the legal predicament of a male: [meaning that both of them together shall be as one man:] or, accord. to others, one of them may remind the other. (TA.) b3: It is said in a trad., فَذَكِّرُوهُ ↓ القُرْآنُ ذَكَرٌ (tropical:) The Kur-án is eminently excellent [lit., masculine]: therefore do ye hold it and know it and describe it as such. (K, TA. [In the CK, for ذَكَرٌ is put ذِكْرٌ.]) b4: [Hence,] ذكّرهُ, (TA,) inf. n. تَذْكِيرٌ, (K,) He put to it, namely a sword, (TA,) and the head of an axe &c., (K,) an edge of steel. (K, * TA.) [See ذُكْرَةٌ.]3 ذاكرهُ, (MA,) inf. n. مُذَاكَرَةٌ, (KL;) He called to mind with him (MA, KL) a story, or discourse, or the like, (MA,) or a thing. (KL.) b2: [And hence, He conferred with him.]4 أَذْكَرَ see 2.

A2: اذكر also signifies He (a man [or other]) begat a male. (TA from a trad.) and اذكرت She (a woman, S, A, or other female, TA) brought forth a male, (S, A, K,) or males. (Mgh.) It is said in a prayer for a woman in labour, أَيْسَرَتْ وَأَذْكَرَتْ May she have an easy birth, and may she bring forth a male child. (A.) And you say also, اذكرت بِهِ (assumed tropical:) She brought him forth a male, and hardy: (TA from a trad.:) or a male, and sharp and cunning. (Mgh.) 5 تَذَكَّرَ see 1, in five places, in the first and second sentences. b2: [Also It (a word) was, or became, or was made, of the masculine gender; contr. of تأنّث.]6 تذاكروا They called to mind [a story, or discourse, or the like, or a thing,] one with another. (KL. [See 3.]) b2: [And hence, They conferred together.]8 اِدَّكَرَ and اِذَّكَرَ and اِذْدَكَرَ: see 1, in three places, in the first and second sentences.10 إِسْتَذْكَرَ see 1, in six places, in the first and third sentences.

ذَكْرٌ: see ذِكْرٌ: A2: and ذَكِيرٌ.

ذُكْرٌ: see ذِكْرٌ, in six places.

A2: سَيْفٌ ذُو ذُكْرٍ, or ↓ ذُكُرٍ, (as in different copies of the S,) and أَذْكِرَةٍ, [which is the pl.,] (A,) (tropical:) A cutting, or sharp, sword. (S, A.) [See ذُكْرَةٌ.]

ذِكْرٌ (Yoo, A'Obeyd, Yaakoob, S, M, A, Msb, K) and ↓ ذُكْرٌ, (Yoo, A'Obeyd, Yaakoob, S, A, Msb, K, TA,) or the latter only in the first of the senses here to be explained, (Fr, Msb, TA,) and the latter only is mentioned in this sense in the Fs, (TA,) and is said by El-Ahmar to be of the dial. of Kureysh, (TA,) [both said in the Msb to be simple substs., though many hold them to be inf. ns.,] and ↓ ذَكْرٌ, accord. to one of the expositors of the Fs, but this is strange, (TA,) and ↓ ذِكْرَةٌ (S, M) and ↓ ذُكْرَةٌ (M, TA) and ↓ ذِكْرَى, (S, M, [see 1, first sentence,]) and also دِكْرٌ (S) and دُكْرٌ, mentioned by ISd as of the dial. of Rabee'ah, but held by him to be of weak authority, (TA,) Remembrance; (S, M, A, Msb, K, &c.;) the presence of a thing in the mind: (Er-Rághib:) also termed ذِكْرٌ بِالقَلْبِ, (Msb, TA,) to distinguish it from ذِكْرٌ in another sense, to be explained below: (TA:) he pl. of ↓ ذِكْرَةٌ is ذِكَرٌ, (M,) also said to be pl. of ↓ ذِكْرَى. (MF, art. احد.) You say, ↓ اِجْعَلْهُ مِنْكَ عَلَى ذُكْرٍ and ذِكْرٍ in the same sense, Place thou him, or it, in thy remembrance. (S.) And أَجْعَلَهُ مِنِّى

↓ عَلَى ذُكْرٍ, and ذِكْرٍ, I will not forget him, or it. (A.) And ↓ مَا زَالَ مِنِّى عَلَى ذُكْرٍ, and ذِكْرٍ (K,) or the former only, (Fr, Msb, TA,) He, or it, did not cease to be in my remembrance; (K;) I did not forget him, or it. (Fr, TA.) and ↓ أَنْتَ مِنِّى عَلَى ذُكْرٍ Thou art in my mind. (ISd, Lb.) b2: The words in the Kur [xxix. 44]

وَلَذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ أَكْبَرُ admit of two explanations: The remembrance of God is better for a man than a man's remembrance of a man: and the remembrance of God is better as more efficacious in forbidding evil conduct than is prayer. (TA.) b3: ذِكْرٌ also signifies Memory; a certain quality of the mind, by which a man is able to remember what he cares to know; like حِفُظٌ, except that this latter term is used with regard to the preservation of a thing [in the mind], whereas the former is used with regard to calling it to mind.

Thus in the saying, لَهُ ذِكْرٌ فِى النَّاسِ (tropical:) He has fame among the people: in which it has also the signification next following. (A.) b7: (tropical:) Eminence; nobility; honour. (S, A, Msb, K.) So in the Kur [xciv. 4], وَرَفَعْنَا لَكَ ذِكْرَكَ (tropical:) And We have raised for thee thine eminence, or thy nobility, or thine honour: as some say, it means, when I am mentioned, thou art mentioned with Me: and again, in the Kur [xliii. 43], وَ إِنَّهُ لَذِكْرٌ لَكَ وَ لِقَوْمِكَ (tropical:) And verily it (the Kur-án) is an honour to thee and to thy people.

ذَكَرٌ [probably originally signifying “ mentioned,” or “ talked of,” of the measure فَعَلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, like نَفَضٌ in the sense of مَنْفُوضٌ, and خَبَطٌ in the sense of مَخْبُوطٌ, and قَبَضٌ in the sense of مَقْبُوضٌ, &c.; and hence the first, and perhaps most others, of the significations here following:] Male; masculine; of the male, or masculine, sex, or gender; contr. of أُنْثَى: (S, A, Msb, K, &c.:) [the corresponding word in Hebrew () has been supposed to have this signification because a male is much “ mentioned,” or “ talked of; ” and it is well known that the Arabs make comparatively little account of a female:] pl. ذُكُورٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and ذُكُورَةٌ (A, Msb, K) and ذِكَارٌ (K) and ذِكَارَةٌ and ذُكْرَانٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and ذِكَرَةٌ: (S, K:) [the last, in one copy of the S, I find written ↓ ذِكْرَةٌ, which, if correct, is a pl. of pauc.: and in the TA, in the same phrase in which it occurs in the S, it is written ↓ ذُكْرَةٌ, and expressly said to be with damm, so that it is a quasi-pl. n.:] the pl. form with و and ن is not allowable. (Msb.) One says, كَمِ الذِّكَرَةُ مِنْ وَلَدِكَ, or ↓ الذِّكْرَةُ, (accord. to different copies of the S,) or ↓ الذُّكْرَةُ, with damm, (accord. to the TA,) How many are the males of thy children?

(T and A in art. انث.) The signification of “ strong, courageous, and stubborn,” and the significations which the same word has when applied to rain and to a saying, are assigned in the K to ↓ ذِكْرٌ; but [SM says,] I know not how this is; for in the other lexicons they are assigned to ذَكَرٌ.

(TA.) [See the contr., طِيبٌ مُؤَنَّثٌ, in art. انث.] b8: ذَكَرٌ applied to the Kur-án signifies (tropical:) Eminently excellent. (K.) See 2. b9: Applied to a saying, (tropical:) Strong and firm: and in like manner to poetry. (A.) b10: The Arabs disliked a she-camel's bringing forth a male; and hence they applied the term ذَكَرٌ, met., to (tropical:) Anything disliked.

They said, أَصَابَتِ الأَرْضَ ذُكُورُ الأَسْمِيَةِ (tropical:) Rains bringing intense cold and torrents fell upon the earth.

1 دَهَنَهُ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb,) inf. n. دَهْنٌ (MA, Msb, K, KL) and دَهْنَةٌ, (K,) He anointed it (MA, Mgh, Msb, * KL) with دُهْن, (Mgh, Msb,) i. e., (Msb,) with oil (MA, Msb, KL) &c.; (Msb;) [oiled it; or greased it;] namely, his head, (MA, Mgh,) or his mustache, (Mgh,) or his hair, &c.: (Msb:) or he moistened it; namely, his head, &c.: (K:) and ↓ دهّنهُ, inf. n. تَدْهِينٌ signifies the same [but app. in an intensive sense, or as applying to many objects]: (TA:) and إِدْهَانٌ [inf. n. of ↓ أَدْهَنَ] is like تَدْهِينٌ. (AHeyth, TA.) b2: [Hence,] دَهَنَ الأَرْضَ, said of rain, (S, K,) (tropical:) It moistened the ground slightly, or a little: (S, TA:) or it moistened the surface of the ground. (K.) b3: And [hence also,] دَهَنْتُهُ بِالعَصَا (S, K *) (tropical:) I struck him (S, K, TA) gently (TA) with the staff, or stick; (S, K, TA;) like as one says, مَسَحَهُ بِالعَصَا and بِالسَّيْفِ.

(So in a copy of the S.) b4: [Hence, likewise,] دَهَنَ signifies also He (a man, TA) played the hypocrite. (K, TA.) And you say, دَهَنَ فُلَانًا, aor. ـُ inf. n. دَهْنٌ, meaning He acted with such a one hypocritically. (TK.

(JK.) [See دَهِينٌ.]2 دَهَّنَ see 1, first sentence.3 مُدَاهَنَهٌ and ↓ إِدْهَانٌ signify the same; (S, Msb, K;) i. e. (tropical:) The endeavouring to conciliate; syn. مُصَانَعَةٌ: (S, TA:) or the making peace with another; or becoming reconciled with another: (Msb:) or the pretending the contrary of, or what is different from, that which one conceals in his mind: (K:) and the former signifies also the acting with dishonesty, or dissimulation: or ↓ the latter has this signification; and the former signifies the striving to outwit, deceive, beguile, or circumvent; syn. مُوَارَبَةٌ: (TA:) or دَاهَنْتُ signifies I hid, concealed, or covered; syn. وَارَيْتُ [accord. to four copies of the S; but probably this is a mistranscription for وَارَبْتُ, meaning I strove to outwit, deceive, beguile, or circumvent, as is indicated in the TA]; and ↓ أَدْهَنْتُ signifies I acted with dishonesty, or dissimulation: (S:) or ↓ إِدْهَانٌ is [originally] like تَدْهِينٌ [as has been stated above]: but is used as denoting the act of treating with gentleness or blandishment, soothing, coaxing, wheedling, beguiling, or deluding; and abstaining from restraint or prohibition: (AHeyth, TA:) or it originally signified the anointing such a thing as a hide with some oil or the like: and as such a thing is rendered soft to the sense [of feeling], it was used tropically, or metaphorically, to denote ideal softness, absolutely: hence, the treating with gentleness or blandishment, soothing, coaxing, wheedling, beguiling, or deluding, was termed مُدَاهَنَةٌ: then this tropical signification became commonly known, and conventionally regarded as proper: and then the word [مداهنة or ↓ ادهان, or rather each of these words,] was tropically used as signifying the holding a thing in light, or little, or mean, estimation, or in contempt: so in the 'Ináyeh. (MF, TA.) It is said in the Kur [lxviii. 9], ↓ وَدُّوالَوْ تُدْهِنُ فَيُدْهِنُونَ (tropical:) They wish that thou wouldst endeavour to conciliate [them], and in that case they will endeavour to conciliate [thee]: (S, TA: *) or that thou wouldst be soft, pliant, or gentle, in thy religion, and in that case they will be soft, pliant, or gentle: (TA:) or that thou wouldst be soft, pliant, or gentle, to them, and in that case they will be so to thee: (Jel:) or, accord. to Fr, that thou wouldst be an unbeliever, and they will be unbelievers.

[See also its act. part. n., below.] b2: الإِدْهَانُ is also syn. with الإِبْقَآءُ, which, accord. to IAmb, is the primary signification: in the copies of the K erroneously written الإِنْقَآءُ. (TA.) One says, لَا تُدْهِنْ عَلَيْهِ, meaning لَا تُبْقِ عَلَيْهِ [Show not thou mercy to him; or pity not him; or pardon not him]. (IAmb, TA.) And مَا أَدْهَنْتَ إِلَّا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ, i. e. مَا أَبْقَيْتَ [Thou didst not show, or hast not shown, mercy, save to thyself]. (Lh, TA.) b3: One says also, أَدْهَنْتُ فِى أَمْرِهِ, meaning I fell short in his affair, or case. (JK.) A2: And أُدْهِنَ He (a camel) was affected with the vertigo termed دُهْن.

(of دُهْنٌ, S, Msb, and Bd in lv. 37) is دِهَانٌ (S, Msb, K, and Bd ubi suprà) and أَدْهَانٌ; (K;) [the latter a pl. of pauc.; both pls. signifying kinds of oil &c.;] or ↓ الدِّهَانُ signifies that with which one anoints; (Bd ubi suprà) or it has this signification also: (TA:) you say, دَهَنْتُهُ بِالدِّهَانِ [meaning I anointed him with oils or with ointment]: (S, in which this is mentioned as an ex. of the pl. of دُهْنٌ:) and hence the prov. كَالدِّهَانِ عَلَى الوَبَرِ Like [ointment or] that with which one anoints [upon fur, or soft hair].

(TA.) b2: And, applied to a stallion, (assumed tropical:) That does not impregnate at all: as though because of the paucity of his seminal fluid. (TA.) b3: And Weak; applied to a man, and to a thing: one says, أَتَيْتَ بِأَمْرٍ دَهِينٍ

خدع

1 خَدَعَهُ, (TA,) [aor. ـَ inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (Bd in ii. 8,) He hid it, or concealed it; (TA;) as also ↓ اخدعه, (Msb, TA,) inf. n. إِخْدَاعٌ. (TA.) b2: [And hence, app.,] (Lh, K,) inf. n. as above, (Lh,) (tropical:) He doubled it, or folded it, one part upon another; namely, a garment, or piece of cloth. (Lh, K, TA.) b3: [And hence, also, accord. to some,] خَدَعَهُ, aor. ـَ inf. n. خَدْعٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and خِدْعٌ, (Az, S, K,) or the latter is a simple subst., (Msb, TA,) and خَدِيعَةٌ, (TA,) or this [also] is a simple subst., (Msb, TA,) like خِدَاعٌ, [which is also an inf. n. of 3,] and like خُدٌعَةٌ, (TA,) He deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, him; syn. خَتَلَهُ; (S, Mgh, K;) and desired to do to him a foul, an abominable, or an evil, action, without his knowing whence it proceeded: (S, K:) or he dissembled [or acted deceitfully] with him; pretended to him the contrary of what he concealed: (TA:) or he made him to resign, or relinquish, the object that he had in view, by pretending to him something the contrary of what he concealed: (Er-Rághib, B:) and ↓ خادعهُ, (S, TA,) inf. n. مُخَادَعَةٌ (S) [and خِدَاعٌ], signifies the same; (S, * TA;) as also ↓ اختدعهُ; and ↓ تخدّعهُ; and ↓ خدّعهُ, inf. n. تَخْدِيعٌ: (TA:) or this last signifies he deceived him, deluded him, beguiled him, circumvented him, or outwitted him, much: (KL:) [and of another of these verbs we find the following various explanations:] ↓ خادعهُ is syn. with كَايَدَهُ [which has the first of the meanings assigned in this sentence to خَدَعَهُ; or signifies he practised with him mutual deceit, delusion, guile, or circumvention; he deceived him, &c., being deceived, &c., by him; and this latter meaning, if not each meaning, may be intended here by كايده; for Bd says, (in ii. 8,) that مُخَادَعَة is between two]: (TA:) or it signifies he strove, endeavoured, or desired, to deceive, delude, beguile, circumvent, or outwit, him; (AAF, L;) [agreeably with what is said by Kemál Páshá Zádeh, (as I find in a marginal note in a copy of the MS, and also in the Kull p. 178,) that one says of a man خادع when he has not attained his desire, and خَدَعَ when he has attained his desire;] for many a verb of the measure فَاعَلَ relates to one only; as in the instances of عَاقَبْتُ اللِّصَّ and طَارَقْتُ النَّعْلَ: (L:) or it signifies, [like خَدَعَهُ,] he pretended to him something different from that which was in his mind. (K.) It is said in the Kur [ii. 8], اللّٰهَ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ↓ يُخَادِعُونَ, (TA,) meaning They pretend, to God and to those who have believed, something different from that which is in their minds, by concealing unbelief and pretending belief; for when they do thus to the believers, they do thus to God: (K:) and again, [in iv. 141], اللّٰهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْ ↓ يُخَادِعُونَ [They strive, endeavour, or desire, to deceive God, or] they think that they deceive God, but He is [their deceiver, i. e.,] the requiter, to them, of their خِدَاع [or deceit, &c.]: (TA:) or the meaning is [they deceive] the friends of God: (S:) and [agreeably with this last rendering, and that given in the K,] Aboo-Hayáh reads, in the former passage, يَخْدَعُونَ اللّٰهَ: (TA:) [which passage continues thus:] إِلَّا أَنْفُسَهُمْ ↓ وَمَا يُخَادِعُونَ [but they do not deceive any save themselves]; i. e., the re-sult of their خِدَاع [or deceit] does not befall any save themselves: (K:) here, again, Aboo-Hayáh reads يَخْدَعُونَ: (TA:) Muärrik reads وَمَا

↓ يَخَدِّعُونَ, meaning يَخْتَدِعُونَ. (K.) Accord. to IAar, الخَدْعُ signifies مَنْعُ الحَقِّ [meaning The preventing from discovering, or accepting, the truth]. (L.) [“ He deceived him,” or the like, seems to be generally regarded as the primary signification of خَدَعَهُ, for it occupies the first place in all the lexicons to which I have access: but Bd says (in ii. 8) that this meaning is from خَدَعَ said of the ضَبِّ, and that the primary signification of خَدْعٌ is the act of “ concealing: ” the action of the ضبّ, however, as will appear in what follows, implies, and originates from, a desire of deceit; and so, often, does the act of concealing.] b4: [Hence, app.,] خَدَعْتُهُ I gained the mastery over him. (TA.) b5: خَدَعَ, (Lth, TA, &c.,) aor. ـَ inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (TA,) said of a [lizard of the kind called] ضَبّ, [as though meaning either خَدَعَ المُحْتَرِشَ It deceived the hunter, or خَدَعَ نَفْسَهُ it concealed itself,] signifies it entered into its hole; (Lth;) as also خَدَعَ فِى حُجْرِهِ: (S, K:) or it scented a man, and therefore entered its hole, in order that it might not be caught; as also ↓ انخدع: (TA:) or it entered into its hole in a tortuous manner: and in like manner, a gazelle into its covert: but mostly said of a ضبّ: (Abu-l-'Omeythil:) also said of other things: (Lth:) of a fox, meaning he took to going to the right and left, deceitfully, or guilefully: and of a man, meaning he hid himself from another: and he assumed a disposition not his own. (TA.) [See also خِدَاعٌ, below.] b6: Hence, i. e. from خَدَعَ said of the ضبّ, (A, TA,) خَدَعَتْ عَيْنُ الشَّمْسِ (tropical:) The disc of the sun set; (A, K, TA;) like خَضَعَتْ. (TA in art. خضع.) b7: [And] خَدَعَتْ عَيْنُهُ (tropical:) His eye sank, or became depressed, in his head. (Lh, K, TA.) [Also meaning (assumed tropical:) His eye did not sleep: for] خَدَعَتِ العَيْنُ signifies (assumed tropical:) the eye did not sleep. (TA.) b8: [Hence also, as indicated in the S,] مَا خَدَعَتْ فِى عَيْنِى نَعْسَةٌ (assumed tropical:) [A slumber did not enter my eye]: (S:) or مَا خَدَعَتْ بِعَيْنِهِ نَعْسَةٌ, (so in the L,) or خَدْعَةٌ, i. e. نَعْسَةٌ, (so in the TA,) meaning (tropical:) a slumber did not pass by his eye. (L, TA.) [And from the same source have originated several other tropical significations, of which exs. here follow.] b9: خَدَعَتِ الأُمُورِ (tropical:) The affairs varied in their state; or were, or became, variable. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) b10: خَدَعَتِ السُّوقُ, (S, K,) inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) [The market varied in its state; at one time being brisk, and at another time dull, in respect of traffic: (see خَادِعٌ, below:) or] the market became dull in respect of traffic; (S, K;) as also ↓ انخدعت; (Lh, TA;) or انخدع: (K: [but سوق is generally fem.:]) and, as some say, it became brisk in respect of traffic: thus it appears to have two contr. significations: (TA:) and خَدَعَ السِّعْرُ (tropical:) The price became high, or dear. (TA.) b11: Said of a man, خَدَعَ also signifies (tropical:) His wealth, (K, TA,) and the like, (TA,) became small in amount, or little. (K, TA.) b12: Said of a time, inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (tropical:) Its rain became little: (TA:) and of rain, (tropical:) It became little. (K, TA.) b13: Said of spittle, or saliva, (tropical:) It dried: (S, K, TA:) or it became little, and dried, in the mouth: (A, TA.) or it became deficient; and when it becomes deficient, it becomes thick; and when it becomes thick, it becomes stinking: (TA:) or it became corrupt: (IAar, TA:) and in like manner, said of a thing, it became corrupt, or bad. (TA.) [See also خَادِعٌ, below.] b14: Said of a generous man, (K,) (tropical:) He refrained [from giving], (S, L, K,) and refused. (L.) You say, كَانَ فُلَانٌ يُعْطِى ثُمَّ خَدَعَ (tropical:) [Such a one used to give; then he refrained, and refused]. (S.) A2: خَدَعَهُ aor. ـَ inf. n. خَدْعٌ, He cut, or severed, his [vein called the] أَخْدَع. (TA.) 2 خدّعهُ, inf. n. تَخْدِيعٌ: see 1, third sentence. b2: خُدِّعَ He was deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, repeatedly, so that he became experienced: or he was deceived, &c., in war, time after time, so that he became skilful: or he became experienced in affairs: or he became experienced in affairs, sound in judgment, cunning, and guileful. (TA.) 3 خادعهُ, inf. n. مُخَادَعَةٌ and خِدَاعٌ: see 1, in five places. b2: مُخَادَعَةٌ العَيْنِ means The causing the eye to doubt respecting that which it sees. (Ham p. 541.) b3: خادع المَجْدَ, (As, K, *) or الحَمْدَ, (AA,) a phrase used by Er-Rá'ee, (TA,) He forsook, or relinquished, (As, AA, K,) glory, (As,) or praise, not being worthy of it. (AA.) 4 اخدعهُ: see 1, first signification.

A2: He incited him to deceive, delude, beguile, circumvent, or outwit; or to desire to do to another a foul, an abominable, or an evil, action, without the latter's knowing whence it proceeded; or to pretend to another something different from that which was in his mind. (K.) In the Kur ii. 8, quoted above, Yahyà Ibn-Yaamar reads, وَمَا يُخْدِعُونَ. (TA.) 5 تخدّع He constrained himself to deceive, delude, beguile, circumvent, outwit, or the like. (K, * TA.) A2: تخدّعهُ: see 1, third sentence.6 تخادعوا They deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, one another; or practised deceit, guile, circumvention, or the like, one to another. (TA.) b2: تخادع He pretended deceit, delusion, guile, or circumvention, (S, * P S,) on his part: (S:) or he pretended to be deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, not being so; (K, TA;) as also ↓ انخدع.

He became deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted]: (S, Msb, TA:) or he was content to be deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted. (Lth, K.) b2: See also 6.

خَدْعَةٌ A single act of deceit, delusion, guile, circumvention, or outwitting. (Mgh.) It is said in a trad., (Mgh, TA,) الحَرْبُ خَدْعَةٌ, and ↓ خُدْعَةٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and ↓ خِدْعَةٌ, (K,) and ↓ خُدَعَةٌ, (Az, Ks, S, Mgh, K,) accord. to different relaters; (Th, Mgh, K;) the first being the most chaste, (S, Mgh, Msb,) said to be the form used by Mo-hammad; (Th, Mgh, Msb;) the second ascribed by El-Khattábee to the vulgar; (TA;) the last the best in point of meaning: (Mgh:) i. e., accord. to the first reading, (Mgh,) War is finished by a single act of deceit, &c.; (Mgh, O, K;) accord. to the second, war is a thing by which one is deceived; (Mgh, Msb;) or war is deceived; for when one of the two parties deceives the other, it is as though the war itself were deceived; (IAth, TA;) [accord. to the third, war is a mode, or manner, of deceiving;] and accord. to the fourth, war is a deceiver of those engaged in it (IAth, Mgh, TA) by the frequent deceits which occur therein. (Mgh.) A2: (tropical:) A slumber. (TA.) خُدْعَةٌ A thing by which, or with which, one deceives, deludes, beguiles, circumvents, or outwits; (Mgh, Msb;) like as لُعْبَةٌ signifies “ a thing with which one plays. ” (Msb.) See خَدْعَةٌ. b2: One whom people deceive, delude, beguile, circumvent, or outwit, (S, K,) much; (K;) like as لُعْنَةٌ signifies one “ who is much cursed. ” (TA.) [See, again, خَدْعَةٌ. The comparison of خُدْعَةٌ in one sense with لُعْبَةٌ, and in another sense with لُعْنَةٌ, suggests that one of the explanations above may perhaps be founded upon a mistranscription. On فُعْلَةٌ as the measure of a word having the sense of a pass. part. n., see a remark of IB voce لَقَطٌ.] b3: See also خَدِيعَةٌ.

(O, TA.) خَدُوعٌ: see خَادِعٌ, in three places. b2: Also (assumed tropical:) A she-camel that yields milk abundantly at one time, and withholds it at another.
