And أَلْقَى أَرْوَاقَهُ (assumed tropical:) He remained at rest in a place; (S, O, K;) like as one says, أَلْقَى عَصَاهُ: (S, O:) a meaning said in the K to be app. the contr. of what here next follows: but this requires consideration. (TA.) Also (assumed tropical:) He ran vehemently: (A 'Obeyd, S, O, K:) not known, however, to Sh, in this sense; but known to him as meaning (assumed tropical:) he strove, laboured, toiled, or exerted himself, in a thing. (TA.) [Agreeably with this last explanation, it is said that] رَوْقٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A man's determination, or resolution; his action; and his purpose, or intention. (K, TA.) And hence the saying, أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ أَرْوَاقَهُ [meaning (assumed tropical:) He devoted his mind and energy to it, or him]: (TA:) [or] you say thus, and أَلْقَى عَلَيْهِ شَرَاشِرَهُ, meaning his loving it, or him, (أَنْ يُحِبَّهُ,) vehemently [i. e. (assumed tropical:) he loved it, or him, vehemently; agreeably with explanations of the saying القى عليه شراشره in art. شر, q. v.]. (Thus in the JM. [In my two copies of the S, and in the O and K, and hence in the TA, in the places of عَلَيْهِ and يُحِبَّهُ we find عَلَيْكَ and تُحِبَّهُ; evidently mistranscriptions which have been copied by one lexicographer after another without due consideration: or, if we read عَلَيْكَ, we should read يُحِبَّكَ; for in this case the meaning of the saying would certainly be he loved thee vehemently. Freytag, misled by the reading تُحِبَّهُ in the S and K, renders القى عليك ارواقه as meaning Magno amore erga ipsum te accendit. Golius gives, in its place, ضرب اوراقه عليه (for ارواقه), as meaning Valde amavit eum.]) b11: Yousay also, أَلْقَتِ السَّحَابَةُ أَرْوَاقَهَا, (JK, S, O, K,) or القت السحابة عَلَى الأَرْضِ ارواقها, (TA,) (tropical:) The cloud cast down its rain, and its vehement rain consisting of large drops, (S, O, K, TA,) upon the earth: (TA:) or persevered with rain, and remained stationary upon the land: (JK, TA:) or أَلْقَتِ السَّمَآءُ بِأَرْوَاقِهَا The sky cast down all the water that was in it: (IAmb, O, TA:) or this saying, (O, TA,) or the former, (K,) means cast down its clear waters; (O, K, TA;) from رَاقَ المَآءُ signifying “ the water was, or became, clear: ”

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

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

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

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

(TA.) A2: Also A little, or paltry, thing: (JK, IDrd, O, K:) of the dial. of El-Yemen. (IDrd, O.) You say, مَا أَعْطَاهُ إِلَّا رُوقَةً He gave him not save a little, or paltry, thing.

(tropical:) [They sat in] the front or fore part [of his tent]: (Z, TA:) and ↓ رَوْقٌ also signifies a tent; as in the saying, ضَرَبَ رَوْقَهُ [He pitched his tent]: (S:) and [hence] the place of the huntsman [in which he conceals himself to lie in wait]; (K;) as being likened to the رواق: (TA:) and رواق signifies also a place that affords shelter in rain: (MA:) [and a portico; and particularly such as surrounds the court of a mosque; (see سُدَّةٌ;) in some of the large collegiate mosques, as, for instance, in the mosque El-Azhar, in Cairo, divided into a number of distinct apartments for students of different provinces or countries, each of which apartments by itself is termed a رِوَاق:] the pl. of رواق is أَرْوِقَةٌ and رُوقٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) the former a pl. of pauc. and the latter of mult. (S, O.) b2: [Hence, الرِّوَاقُ مِنَ السَّحَابِ, expl. in the TA as meaning ما دار مِنْهُ كَرِوَاقِ البَيْتِ: but دار is here evidently a mistranscription for كَانَ; and the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) The part, of the clouds, that resembles the رواق of the tent.

أَرْوِقَتَهُ (assumed tropical:) [It let fall its curtains]. (S.) [See also an ex. in a verse cited voce مُرِمٌّ, in art. رم.] b4: And رِوَاقُ العَيْنِ (assumed tropical:) The eyebrow. (JK, K.)

عذب

1 عَذُبَ, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. عُذُوبَةٌ, said of water, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) [and app. of wine or other beverage, and of food, (see عَذْبٌ,)] It was, or became, sweet: (S, O, * TA:) or it was, or became, easy and agreeable to be drunk or swallowed. (Msb.) [See also 12. b2: Freytag has also assigned to it a meaning belonging to أَعْذَبَ, q. v.]

A2: عَذَبَ: see 4, in two places.

A3: And see also 2, last sentence.

A4: [عَذِبَ, inf. n. عَذَبٌ, is mentioned by Golius as signifying “ Quisquiliis aut lente palustri obducta fuit,” and in a similar manner by Freytag; by both as said of water, and as on the authority of the K: but I find, in the K, no ground for this, except an explanation of عَذِبٌ, q.v., of which ISd knew not a verb.]2 عذّبهُ, inf. n. تَعْذِيبٌ, He punished, castigated, or chastised, him: (S, O, Msb, K:) [and he, or it, tormented, or tortured, him:] originally, he beat him: then, he punished him in any painful manner. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., إِنَّ المَيِّتَ يُعَذَّبُ بِبُكَآءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ [Verily the dead will be punished for his family's weeping for him]: the reason of which is probably this; that the Arabs used to charge their families to weep and wail for them; therefore the dead is obnoxious to punishment for his having done this. (IAth, TA.) And the verb is used metaphorically in relation to that which has not sensation: a poet says, لَيْسَتْ بِسَوْدَآءَ مِنْ مَيْثَآءَ مُظْلِمَةٍ

وَلَمْ تُعَذَّبْ بِإِدْنَآءٍ مِنَ النَّارِ [It (app. wine) is not black, from Meytha, darkcoloured; nor has it been mulled (such seems to be here the meaning of the verb) by being put near to fire, or by being boiled]. (L, TA. [See also مُعَذَّبَةٌ.]) b2: See also 4, in two places.

A2: عذّب سَوْطَهُ, and هدّبهُ, [perhaps a mistranscription for ↓ عَذَبَهُ, for accord. to Golius, this last and the first here mentioned are expl. by Z in the sense here following,] He put an عِلَاقَة [i. e. an عَذَبَة] to his whip: so in the A. (TA.) 4 اعذب القَوْمُ The people, or party, became in the condition of having sweet water. (K, TA. [Freytag has erroneously assigned this meaning to عَذُبَ.]) A2: And اعذب, (O, TA,) inf.n. إِعْذَابٌ, (K, TA,) He abstained, or desisted, (O, K, * TA,) عَنْ شَىْءٍ from a thing; (TA;) and, (K, TA,) in like manner followed by عَنْ, (TA,) he left, quitted, or relinquished, (K, TA,) a thing: (TA:) and ↓ استعذب, (K, TA,) likewise followed by عَنْ, (TA,) signifies the same: (K, TA:) and عَذْبٌ, (K, TA,) as inf. n. of ↓ عَذَبَ, (MF, TA,) signifies the abstaining, &c., (K, MF, TA,) from a thing: and [particularly] the abstaining (of a man, and of an ass, and of a horse, TA) from eating, by reason of intense thirst; (K, TA;) being neither fasting nor breaking fast; (TA;) and so عُذُوبٌ as inf. n. of the same verb. (MF, TA.) A3: And اعذبهُ, (S, O,) inf. n. إِعْذَابٌ; (K;) and ↓ عذّبهُ, (O,) inf. n. تَعْذِيبٌ; (K;) and ↓ عَذَبَهُ, (O,) inf. n. عَذْبٌ; (K;) He prevented, hindered, withheld, restrained, or forbade, him, (S, O, K, *) عَنِ الأَمْرِ from [doing] the thing, or affair. (S, O.) One says, أَعْذِبْ نَفْسَكَ عَنْ كَذَا Withhold, or restrain, thyself from such a thing. (S, O.) A4: اعذبهُ [He deprived it of its عَذَب; i. e.] he removed from it, (S, O, K,) namely, water, (K,) or a watering-trough, or tank, (S, O,) the floating particles that were upon it, (S, O,) or its [green substance termed] طُحْلُب, (K,) or both of these: (TA:) and ↓ تَعْذِيبٌ [in like manner] signifies the removing of what is termed عَذَب. (Bd in ii. 6.) 8 اعتذب He made [the] two ends (عَذَبَتَيْنِ) of his turban to hang down behind. (O, K, TA.) 10 استعذب المَآءَ He reckoned, or esteemed, the water sweet. (O, Msb, TA.) b2: And He sought sweet water: you say, استعذب لِأَهْلِهِ he sought sweet water for his family. (TA.) b3: And He drank the water sweet. (TA.) b4: and He drew sweet water. (S, O, K. *) One says, يُسْتَعْذَبُ لِفُلَانٍ مِنْ بِئْرِ كَذَا i. e. [Sweet water] is drawn for such a one from such a well. (S, O.) b5: And استعذب لَهُ المَآءَ He brought to him sweet water. (TA.) A2: See also 4.12 اعذوذب, like اِحْلَولَى, said of water, It was, or became, sweet, [like عَذُبَ,] or very sweet. (Lb, TA.) عَذْبٌ Sweet water: (S, O:) or water, (Msb,) or wine, or beverage, and food, (K,) that is easy and agreeable to be drunk or swallowed: (Msb, K:) pl. عِذَابٌ (O, Msb, TA) and عُذُوبٌ. (TA.) You say رَكِيَّةٌ عَذْبَةٌ [A well of sweet water] : and مَآءٌ عَذْبٌ [sweet water]: and also مَآءَةٌ عَذْبَةٌ [a sweet water]: and مَآءٌ عِذَابٌ [sweet water or waters], using a pl. epithet in this last case because مَآءٌ is a coll. gen. n., of which مَآءَةٌ is the n. un. (TA.) And Aboo-Heiyeh En-Nemeree says, describing water, لَهُ غَلَلٌ بَيْنَ الإِجَامِ عُذُوبُ [Having sweet water permeating amid the reedbeds, or the thickets]: he uses غَلَلٌ as a coll. gen. n., and therefore pluralizes the epithet. (L, TA.) b2: One says also نِساءٌ عِذَابُ الثَّنَايَا (assumed tropical:) [Women sweet in respect of the front teeth]. (A.) b3: And إِنَّهُ لَعَذْبُ اللِّسَانِ (assumed tropical:) [Verily he is sweet in respect of the tongue]; likening his tongue to the water that is termed عَذْب. (Lh, TA.) A2: Also A sort of trees; (K, TA;) the same that is called عَذَبٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) عَذَبٌ, (S, O, K,) [a coll. gen. n.] of which, in all its senses, the n. un. is darr; عَذَبَةٌ, (K, TA,) Motes, or particles of rubbish or the like, (S, O, K, TA,) floating upon water. (TA.) [In this sense, it is said in the S and O that عَذَبَةٌ is its sing. or n. un.] One says مَآءٌ ذُو عَذَبٍ Water abounding with such motes or particles. (S, O. See also عَذِبٌ.) And ↓ عَذِبَةٌ has the same meaning as the n. un. of عَذَبٌ in this sense: (K:) and signifies likewise, as also ↓ عَذَبَةٌ and ↓ عَذْبَةٌ, (L, K,) this last mentioned by IAar, (L,) [the green substance called] طُحْلُب (L, K, TA) and عَرْمَض and the like, (L, TA,) or طُحْلُب and dung (دِمْن), floating upon water. (TA.) b2: And What comes forth next after the fœtus from the womb. (O, K.) A2: Also A sort of trees, (AHn, O, K,) of the shrub-kind: (AHn, O:) the same that is called عَذْبٌ. (TA.) A3: and The pieces of rag that women hold when wailing for the dead; as also مَعَاذِبُ, (O, K,) pl. of ↓ مَعْذَبَةٌ [or probably مِعْذَبَةٌ, like its syn. مِئْلَاةٌ, originally مِئْلَوَةٌ], or , accord. to AA, an anomalous pl. of [the n. un. of عَذَبٌ, i. e.] عَذَبَةٌ: (O:) one of such pieces of rag is also called مِعْوَزٌ, as well as عَذَبَةٌ. (TA.) b2: And Straps, or thongs: (S, O:) or the extremities thereof; as also ↓ عَذَبَاتٌ. (TA.) So in the saying of Dhu-r-Rummeh, (S, O, TA,) describing dogs of the chase, (O,) غُضْفٌ مُهَرَّتَةُ الأَشْدَاقِ ضَارِيَةٌ مِثْلُ السَّرَاحِينِ فِى أَعْنَاقِهَا العَذَبُ [Having pendulous ears, wide in the sides of the mouth, habituated to the chase, resembling wolves, with straps, or thongs, or the extremities thereof, upon their necks]. (S, O, TA.) b3: Also, (K,) or ↓ عَذَبَةٌ, in this and other senses following, (S, O, Msb, &c.,) [the former evidently wrong, the latter (as is said in the K) being its n. un. in all its senses,] The string with which a balance, or pair of scales, is raised. (S, O, Msb, K.) b4: And The end, or extremity, of a whip; (Mgh in art. ثمر, and Msb;) its tail; also called its ثَمَرَة: (Mgh ubi suprà:) or its عِلَاقَة, (TA in the present art.,) which means the [suspensory] thong in the handle thereof: (TA in art. علق:) or [it may have both of these significations, for it is said that it is] one of the عَذَبَتَانِ of a whip. (S, O.) b5: The end, or extremity of anything. (A, K.) b6: The extremity of the tongue; (S, O, Msb;) its [tip or] narrow extremity: (TA:) pl. ↓ عَذَبَاتٌ. (Msb.) One says, أَلْسِنَتِهِمْ ↓ الحَقُّ عَلَى عَذَبَاتِ [Truth is on the tips of their tongues]. (A, TA.) b7: The extremity of the penis of a camel: (ISd, K, TA:) or the extremity of a camel's penis thin in the fore part.

One says, خَفَقَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ العَذَبُ (A, TA) i. e. خِرَقُ الأَلْوِيَةِ [The cravates fluttered over his head].

(TA.) A2: عَذِبٌ is also syn. with عَظِبٌ meaning A man alighting, or abiding, in places of dried-up herbage, and in a waterless desert. (TA in art. عظب.) عَذْبَةٌ: see عَذَبٌ.

[In some copies of the K, دَآءٌ, or “ disease,” is put for دَوَآءٌ, accord. to the TK, as observed by Freytag.]) عَذَبَةٌ, and its pl. عَذَبَاتٌ: see عَذَبٌ, in nine places. b2: The pl. above mentioned signifies also The legs of a she-camel. (TA.) عَذِبَةٌ: see عَذَبٌ, fourth and last sentences.

A2: Also What is taken forth from طَعَام [i. e. wheat, or corn in general,] and thrown away; (Lh, K, TA;) being the worst thereof; also termed عَذِرَةٌ. (Lh, TA in art. عذر.) A3: And Pasturage, or herbage: so in the phrase مَآءٌ مَا بِهِ عَذِبَةٌ, (O,) or مَآء لَا عَذِبَةَ فِيهِ [Water where is no pasturage, or herbage]. (TA.) b2: It is also expl. in copies of the K as signifying, with the article, مَا أَحَاطَ مِنَ الدِّرَّةِ: but the right explanation is مَا أَحَاطَ بِالدَّبْرَةِ [app. meaning The ridge of earth that surrounds a sown piece of ground to retain the water for irrigation (see دَبْرٌ)], as in the M and L &c. (TA.) عَذَبِىٌّ, (thus in my copies of the S,) or عُذَبِىٌّ, (O, K, TA,) with the pointed ذ, accord. to AA, mentioned in the T in art. عدب, as written with the unpointed د, and here said in the K to be syn. with عُدَبِىٌّ, (TA,) Generous in natural dispositions.

(TA.) عَذُوبٌ: see عَاذِبٌ, in seven places.

عَذَابَةٌ The womb; thus mentioned by Az, on the authority of El-Mundhiree and AHeyth, with the pointed ذ; (O, TA;) i. q. عَدَابَةٌ. (K, TA.) عَاذِبٌ and ↓ عَذُوبٌ, applied to a horse or the like, &c., (S, O,) Such as is standing still, or stopping from fatigue, (قَائِمٌ, S,) that will not eat nor drink: (S, O:) or abstaining, or that abstains, from eating, by reason of intense thirst; (K, TA;) applied to a man, and an ass, and a horse: but Az says that the assertion respecting these two epithets that they signify [a horse, &c.] that neither eats nor drinks is more correct than the assertion respecting ↓ عَذُوبٌ that it signifies [one] that abstains from eating by reason of his thirst: also, that عَاذِبٌ signifies any animal, but generally a horse and a camel, that will not eat anything: accord. to Th, this and ↓ عَذُوبٌ signify a horse or the like standing still, or stopping from fatigue, (قَائِمٌ,) that raises his head, and will not eat nor drink; and the former, that passes a night without eating anything: (TA:) the pl. of عَاذِبٌ is عُذُوبٌ, like as سُجُودٌ is a pl. of سَاجِدٌ: and the pl. of ↓ عَذُوبٌ is عُذُبٌ, and, accord. to A 'Obeyd, عُذُوبٌ [like as هُجُودٌ is pl. of هَجُودٌ]: Az says that this is a mistake, for a word of the measure فَعُولٌ does not form a pl. of the measure فُعُولٌ; but [SM says] this is an extr. instance; and he who preserves an authority in his mind is an evidence against him who does not. (TA.) One says, ↓ بَاتَ عَذُوبًا, meaning He passed the night without eating or drinking anything; because abstaining therefrom. (O.) b2: عَاذِبٌ signifies also [Unsheltered;] having no covering between him and the sky; (O, K;) and so ↓ عَذُوبٌ. (K, TA.) El-Jaadee says, describing a wild bull (ثَوْر وَحْشِىّ [a species of bovine antelope]) that had passed the night alone, tasting nothing, لِلسَّمَآءِ كَأَنَّهُ ↓ فَبَاتَ عَذُوبًا سُهَيْلٌ إِذَا مَا أَفْرَدَتْهُ الكَوَاكِبُ [And he passed the night exposed without shelter to the sky, as though he were Canopus when the other stars have left him solitary]. (TA.) الأَعْذَبَانِ [The two most sweet things;] saliva (الرِّيق, S, O, K, or الرُّضَاب, A) and wine: (S, A, O, K: [for, in the amorous language of the Arab, the sweetness of the saliva of his beloved is often praised:]) or food and coïtus. (K.) لِجَامٌ مُعْذِبٌ A bridle that withholds from going away in a headlong manner. (O.) مَعْذَبَةٌ [or مِعْذَبَةٌ?]: see عَذَبٌ.

مُعَذَّبَةٌ [for خَمْرٌ مُعَذَّبَةٌ] Wine mixed [with water, or with some other thing or things]. (A, TA.) b2: And معذب [app. مُعَذَّب] is applied by the vulgar to Fresh ripe dates soaked with water.
