See also سَدِرَ. b2: اسمدرّت عَيْنُهُ His eye shed tears; accord. to Lh; but this is not known in the classical language. (M in art. سمدر.) سِدْرٌ [a coll. gen. n., The species of lote-tree called by Linnæus rhamnus spina Christi; and by Forskål, rhamnus nabeca;] the tree, or trees, of which the fruit is called نَبِق and نَبْق: (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) sing., (Msb,) or [rather] n. un., (S, M, K,) سِدْرَةٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) and sometimes سِدْرٌ is used as meaning the smallest or smaller of numbers [generally denoting from three to ten inclusively]: (Ibn-Es-Sarráj, Msb:) AHn says, accord. to Aboo-Ziyád, the سِدْر is of the kind called عِضَاه, and is of two species, عُبْرِىٌّ and ضَالٌ: the عبرى is that which has no thorns except such as do not hurt: the ضال has thorns [which hurt]: the سدر has a broad round leaf: and sometimes people alight and rest beneath a tree of this kind; but the ضال is small: the best نبق that is known in the land of the Arabs is in Hejer (هَجَر), in a single piece of land which is appropriated to the Sultán alone: it is the sweetest of all in taste and odour: the mouth of him who eats it, and the garments of him who has it upon him, diffuse an odour like that of perfume: (M, TA:) it is [also] said that the سدر is of two species; whereof one grows in the cultivated lands, and its leaves are used in the ablution termed غُسْل, and its fruit is sweet; and the other grows in the desert, and its leaves are not so used, and its fruit is juicy: the زُعْرُور is so described that it may be supposed to be the wild نبق: (Msb:) when سِدْرٌ is used absolutely, with relation to the ablution termed غُسْل, it means the ground leaves of the tree so called: (Mgh, * Msb:) the pl. of سِدْرَةٌ is سِدْرَاتٌ and سِدِرَاتٌ and سِدَرَاتٌ (S, K) and سِدَرٌ (S, M, K) and سُدُورٌ, (M, K,) which last is extr. (M.) b2: سِدْرَةُ المُنْتَهَى is said to be The lote-tree in the Seventh Heaven; (Lth, K; *) beyond which neither angel nor prophet passes, and which shades the water and Paradise: (Lth:) in the Saheeh it is said to be in the Sixth Heaven: 'Iyád reconciles the two assertions by the supposition that its root is in the Sixth, and that it rises over the Seventh: accord. to IAth, it is in the furthest part of Paradise to which, as its furthest limit, extends the knowledge of ancients and moderns. (MF, TA.) سَدَرٌ [see 1]. You say, فِى بَصَرِهِ سَدَرٌ, and ↓ سَمَادِيرُ, In his sight is a confusedness, so that he does not see well.

(TA in art. رقع.) سِدْرِىٌّ One who grinds and sells the leaves of the سِدْر. (TA.) [See also سَدَّارٌ.]

سَادِرٌ: see سَدِرٌ. b2: Also Losing his way: you say, إِنَّهُ سَادِرٌ فِى الغَىِّ Verily he is losing his way, in error. (A.) And أَتَى أَمْرَهُ سَادِرًا i. e.

(S, K.) The م is augmentative. (S: but the word is mentioned in the M and K in art. سمدر.) See also سَدَرٌ.

(K in art. سمدر.) الأَسْدَرَانِ The shoulder-joints, (S, M, A, K,) and the sides: (S, K:) or (so in the M, but accord. to the K “ and ”) two veins (M, K) in the eye, (M,) or in the two eyes: (K:) or beneath the temples. (M.) Hence the saying جَآءَ يَضْرِبُ

أَسْدَرَيْهِ He came beating (with his hands, TA) his shoulder-joints (S, A, K) and his sides; (S, K;) meaning, (tropical:) he came empty, (S, A, K,) having nothing in his hand, (S,) or having no occupation, (M,) and without having accomplished the object of his desire: (S, K:) and in like manner, أَصْدَرَيْهِ: (S:) and جَآءَ يَنْفُضُ أَسْدَرَيْهِ, (Az,) and أَصْدَرَيْهِ, (TA,) and أَزْدَرَيْهِ, (ISk,) he came shaking his shoulder-joints: (Az:) or his sides: meaning as above.

(T, TA.) You say, أَنَا أَحْجُو بِهِ خَيْرًا I think, or opine, that there is good in him. (S, TA.) And Aboo-Shembel says, respecting Aboo-'Amr Esh-Sheybánee, قَدْ كُنْتُ أَحْجُو أَبَا عَمْرٍوأَخَاثِقَةٍ

حَتَّى أَلَمَّتْ بِنَا يَوْمًا مُلِمَّاتُ [I used to think and assert Aboo-'Amr to be a trustworthy person, until, one day, misfortunes befell us]. (TA.) b2: حَجَا القَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا (S, K *) He repaid, requited, compensated, or recompensed, the people, or party, [with, or for, such and such things,] syn. جَزَاهُمْ; [so in my copies of the S, and in the K; but Freytag gives, as the reading found by him in the S, حزاهم, as though meaning he computed them by conjecture to be such and such in number; which is agreeable with what follows;] and he thought them to be so. (S.) A2: He directed himself, or his course or aim, to, or towards, him, or it: (Az, TA:) and ↓ تحجّى

الشَّىْءَ he directed himself, or his course or aim, to, or towards, the thing. (S, TA.) A3: Also, (K,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) He kept a secret: (K:) or he concealed it: (Az, TA:) [and ↓ حَاجِى has a similar meaning; for] you say, لَامُحَاجَاةَ عِنْدِى

(TA.) b2: لَا يَحْجُو إِبِلَهُ, said of a pastor, He does not, or will not, keep and tend, or pasture and defend, his camels. (TA.) One says also of a pastor whose sheep or goats [and camels] are lost by him, and become dispersed, مَا يَحْجُو غَنَمَهُ وَلَا إِبِلَهُ [He does not keep his sheep or goats, nor his camels, from being lost and becoming dispersed].

(IAar, K.) b2: and حَجَا بِهِ, [inf. n. as above, (see Ham p. 523,)] He was, or became, tenacious, or avaricious, of it, namely, a thing; (S, K;) as also به ↓ تحجّى. (TA.) And حَجِى بِهِ, (Fr, S, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. حَجًى [or حَجًا], (TK,) He was, or became attached to it, and clave to it; (Fr, S, K;) as also حَجِئَ به; and به ↓ تحجّى; (Fr, S;) and تحجّأبه. (Fr, TA.) ↓ تحجّى also signifies He kept to the حَجَا, or place of bending or turning of a valley. (TA.) And بِهٰذَا المَكَانِ ↓ تَحَجَّيْتُ I preceded you, or outwent you, to this place, and clave to it before you. (S, TA.) And [hence,] بِهِمْ ↓ تحجّى is said to mean (assumed tropical:) He was first, or foremost, or quick, to blame them. (TA.) b3: حَجِىَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـَ (TA,) is also [said to be] syn. with عَدَا, (K,) He ran; (TK;) thus bearing two contr. significations: (K:) but this requires consideration. (TA.) b4: [Golius, as on the authority of the KL, assigns to it also the meaning “ Hilaris et lubens fuit: ” but in this sense it is said in the KL to be with ء for its last radical letter: see art. حجأ.]3 حَاْجَوَ ↓ حَاجَيْتُهُ فَحَجَوْتُهُ, (T, S, K,) inf. n. of the former مُحَاجَاةٌ and حِجَآءٌ, (K,) I contended, or vied, with him in intelligence or skill and knowledge, or in endeavouring to show my superiority in intelligence &c., (فَاطَنْتُهُ,) and I overcame him therein; (K;) from حِجًى [or حِجًا] meaning “ intelligence. ” (Har p. 9.) [And hence, I tried him with an enigma or enigmas, and overcame him therein: (see 6:) or] I proposed to him an enigma [&c.]: (T, TA:) [or I contended with him in proposing an enigma or enigmas, &c.]: i. e. دَاعَيْتُهُ فَغَلَبْتُهُ: (S:) so in the handwriting of Aboo-Zekereeyà, and in that of Aboo-Sahl, [and in my two copies of the S,] but in [some of the copies of] the S دعيته. (TA.) And حُوجِىَ بِهِ [He was tried with it as an enigma to be explained by him; or he had it proposed to him as an enigma]. (TA.) b2: مُحَاجَاةٌ signifies [also] The asking a thing of one much, so as to weary; as also مُدَاعَاةٌ. (KL.) b3: And حِجَآءٌ, (K, TA,) [accord. to the CK حَجًا, but correctly] like كِتَابٌ, (TA,) An engaging in conflict, or fight.

(S, K, TA:) verbs of wonder having no corresponding verb of the measure فَعَلَ. (TA.) Yousay, مَا أَحْجَاهُ بِذٰلِكَ How well adapted or disposed, &c., is he for that! (S, TA.) 5 تَحَجَّوَ see 1, in eight places. b2: You say also, تحجّى لَهُ, meaning He knew it, or understood it, readily, or with quickness of intelligence. (AHeyth, TA.) 6 تَحَاجَوْا They tried one another with enigmas: [or proposed enigmas, one to another: or contended, one with another, in proposing an enigma, or enigmas: (see 3:)] from حِجًى [or حِجًا] meaning “ intelligence. ” (Har p. 189.) You say, يَتَحَاجَوْنَ بِأُحْجِيَّةٍ [They try one another with an enigma: or contend, one with another, in proposing an enigma]: (S, TA:) التَّحَاجِى signifying التَّدَاعِى. (TA.) 8 احتجى He found out, or discovered, (أَصَابَ,) that with which he was tried as an enigma to be explained by him. (TA.) حَجًا or حَجًى A side, region, quarter, or tract: (S, Msb, K, TA:) and an extremity: (TA:) pl. أَحَجَآءٌ.

A2: Bubbles upon water, arising from the drops of rain: pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] of ↓ حَجَاةٌ: (S, K: [in the CK, erroneously, حِجاة:]) the latter word, which is like حَصَاةٌ, is explained by Az as signifying a bubble that rises upon water, like a flask; and as having for its pl. حَجَوَاتٌ: and the same word (حجاة) signifies also a pool of water, itself, such as is left by a torrent. (TA.) A3: See also حَجِىٌّ.

A4: حَجَا is also used, by poetic license, for حَجَاج, q. v. (TA in art. حج.) حَجٍ: see حَجِىٌّ.

A2: إِنَّهُ لَحَجِىٌ إِلَى بَنِى فُلَانٍ means لَا جِئٌ لَهُمْ [i. e. Verily he is betaking himself for refuge, or protection, to the sons of such a one; like لَحَجِئٌ: but by rule it should be لَحَجٍ; and thus, perhaps, it is correctly written]. (Az, TA.) حِجًا or حِجًى Intelligence, or understanding; (S, Msb, K;) sagacity, or skill and knowledge: (K:) [said to be] from حَجَا meaning “ he, or it, prevented, or withheld; ” because it prevents, or withholds, a man from doing that which is bad, or corrupt. (TA.) A2: And i. q. مِقْدَارٌ [Quantity, measure, &c.]: pl. أَحْجَآءٌ. (K.) A3: See also حَجًا.

A4: [Also said by Golius, as on the authority of J, to signify “ an enigma,” as though syn. with

أُحْجِيَّةٌ; but I have not found it in this sense in any copy of the S, nor in any other lexicon.]

حَجَاةٌ: see حَجًا.

حَجْوَى a subst. signifying مُحَاجَاةٌ [i. e. A contention in intelligence &c.; and particularly, in trying with an enigma or enigmas; in proposing an enigma or enigmas; or simply the proposal of an enigma; see 3]; (T, TA;) the subst. denoted by حَاجَيْتُهُ فَحَجَوْتُهُ; (K;) [or rather by the verb حَاجَيْتُ, agreeably with the foregoing explanation from the T;] as also ↓ حُجَيَّا, (S, K, TA,) with a dammeh, (K, TA,) and with teshdeed of the ى; (TA; [in some copies of the K erroneously written حُجْيُا;]) and ↓ أُحْجِيَّةٌ: (S:) or ↓ حُجَيًّا is the dim. of حَجْوَى: (T, TA:) and ↓ أُحْجِيَّةٌ signifies a saying of which the meaning differs from the letter, as also ↓ أُحْجُوَّةٌ, (K,) but احجيّة is preferable, (T, TA,) and كَلِمَةٌ

↓ مُحْجِيَةٌ, (K,) like مُحْسِنَةٌ; (TA; [in the CK, erroneously, مُحْجِيَّةٌ;]) [i. e.] ↓ أُحْجِيَّةٌ signifies an enigma; a riddle; (MA, PS, TK;) and so ↓ حُجَيَّا; (PS;) or a question put to one with the view of causing him to make a mistake; (TA;) and is from حِجًى [or حِجًا] meaning “ intelligence,” because مُحَاجَاةٌ is like a vying, or contending, in intelligence: (Har p. 9:) the pl. of ↓ أُحْجِيَّةٌ is أَحَاجِىُّ and أَحَاجٍ, (MA, and Har ubi suprà,) agreeably with a general rule relating to words of its measure, as أُثْفِيَّةٌ and أُمْنِيَّةٌ. (Seer, in Har ubi suprà.) One says, مَاكَانَ ↓ حُجَيَّاكَ كَذَا وَكَذَا [The question of contention with thee in trying thine intelligence by an enigma, or the enigma proposed to thee, is, What is, or was, such a thing, and such a thing?]: it means a certain game, and a question put with the view of causing one to make a mistake: A 'Obeyd says, It is like their saying, Disclose what is in my hand, and thou shalt have such a thing. (S.) One says also, فِى هٰذَا ↓ أَنَا حُجَيَّاكَ, meaning مَنْ يُحَاجِيكَ [i. e. I am he who contends with thee in intelligence, or in trying with an enigma, &c., respecting this thing]. (S.) And ↓ بَيْنَهُمْ أُحْجِيَّةٌ يَتَحَاجَونَ بِهَا [Between them is a contention in intelligence, or in proposing enigmas, or between them is an enigma, with which they try one another]. (S.) هُوَحَجِىٌّ بِهِ He is adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, or proper, for it; or worthy of it; as also ↓ حَجٍ, (S, M, K, TA,) of which the pl. is حَجُونَ; (TA;) and ↓ حَجًى, (S, M, K, TA,) which last has no fem. nor dual nor pl. form, (S, M,) retaining the same form as fem. and dual and pl.: (M:) and in like manner you say, أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ ↓ إِنَّهُ لَمَحْجَاةٌ Verily he is adapted, &c., to do that; (S, K; *) and إِنَّهَا لَمَحْجَاةٌ; and إِنَّهُمْ لَمَحْجَاةٌ. (S.) b2: حَجِىٌّ is also syn. with حَرِيصٌ [Vehemently desirous, eager, &c.]. (KL.) حُجَيَّا: see حَجْوَى, in five places.

A2: Respecting this word in the phrase حثجْ حُجَيَّاكَ, see حَاجَةٌ (in art. حوج), near the end of the paragraph.

أحْجَى More, and most, adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, competent, proper, or worthy: (TA, Ham p. 523:) so in the saying, هُوَ أَحْجَى أَنْ يَكُونَ كَذَا [He is more, or most, adapted, &c., to be thus; or worthy of being thus]: (TA:) and فُلَانٌ أَحْجَى بِكَذَا [Such a one is more, or most, adapted, &c., for such a thing; or worthy of it]. (Ham ubi suprà.) Hence, in a trad., مَعَاشِرُ هَمْدَانَ أَحْجَى حَىٍّ بِالكُوفَةِ [The companies of Hemdán are the most worthy tribe in El-Koofeh]: or, as some say, the meaning is, the most intelligent tribe. (TA.) أُحْجُوَّةٌ: see حَجْوَى.

أُحْجِيَّةٌ: see حَجْوَى, in five places.

مَحْجًى: see حَجًا.

مُحْجٍ Niggardly, tenacious, or avaricious. (K.) A2: كَلَمَةٌ مُحْجِيَةٌ: see حَجْوَى.

مَحْجَاةٌ: see حَجِىٌّ.

عصب

1 عَصَبَ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. عَصْبٌ, (S, A, Mgh, O, K,) He twisted [a thing], or wound [it] round: (A, K, TA:) this is the primary signification: (TA:) and he folded [it]; (A, K;) or he folded [it] tightly: (S, O, TA:) and he bound [it], or tied [it]: (A, Mgh, K, TA:) عَصْبٌ denotes the binding, or tying, a thing with another thing, lengthwise, or [more commonly] around. (O.) See also 2, first sentence. [And see مَعْصُوبٌ.] b2: He twisted, or spun, thread. (K, * TA.) And He put together thread, and bound it, previously to dyeing it. (TA.) b3: عَصَبَ الكَبْشَ, (S, O, Msb, K, *] aor. as above, (K,) and so the inf. n., (S, Msb, K,) He bound, or tied, (tightly, TA) the testicles of the ram, in order that they might fall, without his extracting them: (S, O, Msb, K:) and in like manner one says of a goat, (K,) and of other beasts. (TA.) b4: عَصَبَ النَّاقَةَ, (O, Msb, K, *) aor. as above, (K,) and so the inf. n., (Msb, K, TA,) and عِصَابٌ also; (TA;) and ↓ اعتصبها; (O, K;) He bound the thighs of the she-camel, (Msb, K, TA,) or the lower parts of her nostrils, (TA,) with a cord, (Msb, TA,) in order that she might yield her milk copiously: (Msb, K, TA:) and (O) عَصَبَ فَخِذَ النَّاقَةِ [He bound the thigh of the she-camel] for that purpose. (S, O.) [See عَصُوبٌ.] Hence one says, أَعْطَى عَلَى العَصْبِ (tropical:) He gave by means of force. (TA.) And مِثْلِى لَا يَدِرُّ بِالعِصَابِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one as I am will not give by means of force. (A, TA.) b5: عَصَبَتْ فَرْجَهَا She (a woman) bound her vulva with a bandage. (Msb.) b6: عَصَبَ الشَّجَرَةَ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ, (K,) He drew together the branches of the tree (S, O, K, TA) that were straggling, (K, TA,) by means of a rope, (TA,) and then beat it, (S, O, K, TA,) in order that its leaves might fall. (S, O, TA.) [Golius assigns this signification also to عَصَّبَ, as on the authority of the S, in which I do not find it.] El-Hajjáj said, (S, TA,) when preaching to the people at El-Koofeh, (TA,) لَأَعْصِبَنَّكُمْ عَصْبَ السَّلَمِ (S) or السَّلَمَةِ (TA) [I will assuredly draw you together and beat you as one does the selem or the selemeh]. The سَلَمَة is a tree of the kind called عِضَاه, having thorns, and its leaves are the قَرَظ with which hides are tanned: [but see قَرَظٌ:] the removal of the leaves with the hand being difficult on account of the many thorns, its branches are drawn together and bound tightly with a rope; then the beater pulls them towards him, and beats them with his staff; whereupon the leaves become scattered for the cattle and for him who desires to gather them. (TA.) Or this is done, (S, O, TA,) accord. to A 'Obeyd, (S, O,) only (TA) when they desire to cut down the selemeh, that they may get at the stock. (S, O, TA.) [Hence,] one says, فُلَانٌ لَا تُعْصَبُ سَلَمَاتُهُ [Such a one will not have his selemehs bound round with a rope, and beaten]: a prov., applied to a strong, mighty man, not to be subdued nor abased. (A, * TA.) And one says also of winds, تَعْصِبُ الشَّجَرَ عِنْدَ دُرُوجِهَا فِيهِ (assumed tropical:) [They compress the branches of the trees, as though they bound them round, in their passage among them]: and such winds are termed ↓ عَصَائِبُ. (O.) And عَصَبَ القَوْمَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ, (assumed tropical:) It (an affair, or event,) drew the people together, and became severe to them. (Az, TA.) b7: عَصَبَ صَدْعَ الزُجَاجَةِ بِضَبَّةٍ مِنْ فِضَّةٍ He (a smith) repaired the crack of the glass vessel by putting round it a band of silver. (O, TA.) b8: عَصَبَ بِرَأْسِ قَوْمِهِ العَارَ (assumed tropical:) He made disgrace to befall his people [as though he bound it upon the head of their chief or upon the head of each of them]. (O.) It is related in a trad. respecting the battle of Bedr, that 'Otbeh the son of Rabee'ah said, اِرْجِعُوا وَلَا تُقَاتِلُوا وَاعْصِبُوهَا بِرَأْسِى (assumed tropical:) [Return ye, and fight not; and bind it upon my head]; meaning attach and attribute to me the disgrace that will befall you for relinquishing the battle and inclining to peace. (IAth, TA.) And it is said in another trad., قُومُوا بِمَا عَصَبَكُمْ بِهِ (assumed tropical:) Fulfil ye the obligations with which He (meaning God) has bound you; or which He has imposed upon you and attached to you; by his commands and prohibitions. (TA.) b9: عَصَبَ الشَّىْءَ and عَلَى

الشَّىْءِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ and عِصَابٌ, He grasped the thing with his hand. (K, * TA.) A poet, cited by IAar, says, وَكُنَّا يَا قُرَيْشُ إِذَا عَصَبْنَا يَجِىْءُ عِصَابُنَا بِدَمٍ عَبِيطِ [And we were, O Kureysh, when we grasped our opponents, such that our grasping brought fresh blood]; عِصَابُنَا meaning our grasping those whom we opposed with the swords. (TA.) b10: and عَصَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ, He clung, or kept, to a thing. (K.) One says, عَصَبَ المَآءَ He kept to, or by, the water. (IAar, TA.) And عَصَبَ الرَّجُلُ بَيْتَهُ The man remained, or stayed, in his house, or tent, not quitting it. (O, TA.) b11: And He went round, encompassed, or surrounded, a thing. (K.) It is said in a trad., of the angel Gabriel, on the day of Bedr, قَدْ عَصَبَ رَأْسَهُ الغُبَارُ The dust had overspread, [or surrounded,] and clung to, his head: or, as some relate it, قَدْ عَصَمَ ثَنِيَّتَيْهِ الغُبَارُ; and if this be not a mistake, the latter verb is syn. with the former: ب and م being often interchangeable: (L, TA:) the latter phrase means, as also with عَصَبَ, the dust had stuck to his two central incisors. (TA in art. عصم.) And Ibn Ahmar says, إِذْ عَصَبَ النَّاسَ شَمَالٌ وَقُرٌ [وَقُرْ being for وَقُرٌّ] i. e. When north wind and cold environ me. (L, TA.) And one says also, عَصَبَ الغُبَارُ بِالجَبَلِ The dust encompassed, or surrounded, the mountain. (L, TA.) And عَصَبُوا بِهِ They encompassed, or surrounded, him: (S, A, Mgh, O, TA:) and they encompassed, or surrounded, him, looking at him: (S, O:) and, (Msb, K,) as also عَصِبُوا, (K,) aor. of the former عَصِبَ, (Msb, K,) and inf. n. عَصْبٌ, (Msb,) and aor. of the latter عَصَبَ, (K,) they assembled around him (Msb, K) for fight or defence. (Msb. For another explanation of عَصَبَ and عَصِبَ, see 12.) And عَصَبَ القَوْمُ بِالنَّسَبِ i. q. أَحَاطُوا بِهِ [app. meaning The people, or party, included, or comprehended, the relations, or kinsmen; for النَّسَبُ is often used for ذَوُو النَّسَبِ]. (Msb.) and عَصَبَتِ الإِبِلُ بِالمَآءِ The camels surrounded, or encircled, the water. (S, O.) b12: عَصَبَ الرِّيقُ بِفِيهِ, (S, O, K, * TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ; (K, TA;) and عَصِبَ, aor. ـَ (TA;) The saliva became dry in his mouth. (S, O, K, * TA.) And عَصَبَ الرِّيقُ فَاهُ (S, O, TA) The saliva by its drying made his mouth dry: and the saliva adhered to his mouth. (TA.)

[The saliva makes his mouth dry, with what a drying ! as the drying of the spume of camels' milk on the lips of the skin]. (S, O.) and عَصَبَ فُوهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ, His mouth, with his saliva, became dry. (O.) And عَصَبَ الفَمُ, (K, * TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْبٌ and عُصُوبٌ, meaning [The mouth, or teeth, (the latter accord. to the explanation in the K,)] became foul, or dirty, from dust and the like, (K, TA,) as from vehement thirst, or fear. (TA.) b13: عَصَبَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. عُصُوبٌ, He was, or became, [hungry; or] very hungry; or his bowels were almost dried up with hunger: because it is said of the practice of a hungry man's binding round his belly, as expl. voce مَعْصُوبٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) b14: عَصَبَ الأُفُقُ The horizon became red. (S, O. [In Freytag's Lex. عَصِبَ, as from the K, in which I do not find it. See عَصْبٌ.]) A2: عَصِبَ, (S, O, K,) with kesr, (S, O,) like فَرِحَ, (K,) said of flesh, or flesh-meat, It had many عَصَبَ [i. e. sinews, or tendons]. (S, O, K.) b2: And عَصِبَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. عَصْبٌ, [so in the TA, and so in a verse there cited, not عَصَبٌ,] He was, or became, firm and compact in flesh.

(L, TA.) He turbaned a man; attired him with a turban. (A, TA.) b2: Hence, (A, O,) تَعْصِيبٌ signifies (tropical:) [The crowning a man: (see the pass. part. n.:)] the making a man a chief: (A, O, K, TA:) for turbans are the crowns of the Arabs: (O:) when a man's people made him a chief, they bound his head with a turban: (A, TA:) as kings wore crowns, so the chiefs of the Arabs wore red turbans: (L, TA:) there were brought to the desert, from Haráh (هَرَاة), red turbans, which the nobles among the Arabs wore. (Az, TA.) b3: [Hence also,] عصّبهُ بِالسَّيْفِ i. q. عَمَّمَهُ بِهِ (assumed tropical:) [He cut, or wounded, him in the place of the turban, with the sword].

(MF, TA.) b4: Hence, (assumed tropical:) Clouds like such as are termed لَطْخ [q. v.]: (S, O:) or red clouds or mist (K, TA) seen in the western horizon (TA) in a time of drought, or sterility; as also ↓ عِصَابَةٌ, (K, TA,) pl. عَصَائِبُ. (TA.) A2: In a trad., mention occurs of a necklace made of عَصْب: ElKhattábee says, if it do not mean the garments of El-Yemen, I know not what it is; yet I see not how a necklace can be made of these: Aboo-Moosà thinks it may be عَصَب, meaning the tendons of joints, as they may have taken the tendons of certain clean animals, and cut them in pieces, and made them like beads, and, when dry, made neck laces of them; but he adds his having been told by some of the people of El-Yemen that عَصْبٌ is the name of A certain beast of the sea, or of the great river, called also فَرَسُ فِرْعَوْنَ [i. e. Pharaoh's horse, perhaps meaning the hippopotamus], of which [meaning of the teeth or bones of which] beads and other things, as the handles of knives &c., are made, and which is white. (L, TA.)

AHn], and عَصْبَة with fet-h on the authority of AA, (O,) as meaning a certain plant that twines about a tree, and is called لَبْلَاب; and نُشْبَة as meaning a man who, when he sports with a thing (عَبِثَ بِشَىْءٍ [but probably the right reading is شَبِثَ بشىء or تَشَبَّثَ i. e. clings to a thing]), hardly, or never, quits it.

عَبْدٌ, originally an epithet, but used as a subst., (Sb, TA,) A male slave; (S, A, O, L, Msb, K;) i. q. مَمْلُوكٌ; (L, K;) [but عَبْدٌ is now generally applied to a male black slave; and مَمْلُوكٌ, to a male white slave; and this distinction has long obtained;] contr. of حُرٌّ; (S, A, O, L, Msb;) as also ↓ عَبْدَلٌ, (L, K,) in which the ل is augmentative: (L:) and a servant, or worshipper, of God, and of a false god, or of the Devil: (Lth, L, &c.:) [you say عَبْدُ اللّٰهِ and عَبْدُ الشَّمْسِ &c.: see also عَابِدٌ, which signifies the same; and see the remarks in this paragraph on the pls. عَبِيدٌ and عِبَادٌ and عَبَدَةٌ &c.:] and a man, or human being; (M, A, L, K;) as being a bondman (مَرْبُوبٌ) to his Creator; (L;) applied to a male and to a female; (Ibn-Hazm, TA;) whether free or a slave: (K:) pl. أَعْبُدٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and أَعْبِدَةٌ and أَعْبَادٌ, (IKtt, TA,) [all pls. of pauc.,] of which the first is the most commonly known, (Msb,) and ↓ عَبِيدٌ and عِبَادٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) which two and the first are the most commonly known of all the many pls. of عَبْدٌ, (Msb,) عَبِيدٌ being like كَلِيبٌ as pl. of كَلْبٌ, a rare form of pl.; (S, O;) or, accord. to some, it is a quasipl. n.; accord. to Ibn-Málik, فَعِيلٌ occurs as a pl. measure, but sometimes they use it in the manner of a pl. and make it fem., as in the instance of عَبِيدٌ, and sometimes they use it in the manner of quasi-pl. ns. and make it masc., as in the instances of حَجِيجٌ and كَلِيبٌ; (MF;) [accord. to the general and more approved opinion, it is a quasi-pl. n., and therefore fem. and masc., but most commonly fem.;] and further it should be remarked that the common people agree in making a difference between عَبِيدٌ and عِبَادٌ, by the former meaning slaves [and by the latter meaning servants of God and also simply, with the article ال, mankind], saying, هٰؤُلَآءِ عَبِيدٌ these are slaves, and هٰذَا عَبْدٌ مِنْ عِبَادِ اللّٰهِ [this is a servant, of the servants of God]: (Az, L:) [and a distinction is also made between عِبَادٌ and عَبَدَةٌ, respecting which see what follows:] other pls. of عَبْدٌ are عُبْدَانٌ, (S, O, K,) like تُمْرَانٌ pl. of تَمْرٌ, (S, O,) and عِبْدَانٌ, (S, O, K,) like جِحْشَانٌ pl. of جَحْشٌ, (S, O,) and عُبُدٌ, (S, O, K,) like سُقُفٌ pl. of سَقْفٌ, (S, O,) or this is pl. of عَبِيدٌ, like رُغُفٌ pl. of رَغِيفٌ, (Zj,) and is also a pl. of عَابِدٌ, (L,) and some read [in the Kur v. 65] عُبُدَ الطَّاغُوتِ, (Akh, S, O,) and عُبْدٌ (MF) and عُبُودٌ and عُبَّدٌ and عُبَّادٌ and عَبَدَةٌ, (IKtt, TA,) the last three of which are also pls. of عَابِدٌ: (L:) one says of the worshippers of a plurality of gods, هُمْ عَبَدَةُ الطَّاغُوتِ [they are the servants of Et-Tághoot]; but the Muslims one calls عِبَادُ اللّٰهِ, meaning the servants, or worshippers, of God: (Lth, L:) [all these are pls. in the proper sense of the term, of the broken class:] and عَبْدُونَ, (O, K,) a pl. of the sound class, adopted because عَبْدٌ is originally an epithet: (TA:) and [the following, with the exception of the first, and of some which are particularized as being pls. of pls., are also said to be pls., but are properly speaking quasi-pl. ns., namely,] ↓ عَبُدٌ, (O, K,) accord. to some, who read [in the Kur ubi suprà] عَبُدَ الطَّاغُوتِ, making the former a prefixed noun, as meaning the servants (خَدَم) of Et-Tághoot; but it is a n. of the measure فَعُلٌ, like حَذُرٌ and نَدُسٌ, not a pl.; the meaning being the servant (خَادِم) of Et-Tághoot; (Akh, S, O;) and it is also used by poetic license for عَبْدٌ; (Fr, T, S, O;) and ↓ عِبِدَّانٌ and ↓ عِبِدَّآءُ and ↓ عِبِدَّى; (S, O, K;) or, accord. to some, the last of these signifies slaves born in a state of slavery; and the female is termed ↓ عَبْدَةٌ; and Lth says that ↓ عِبِدَّى signifies a number of slaves born in a state of slavery, generation after generation; but Az says that this is a mistake, that عِبِدَّى اللّٰهِ signifies the same as عبَادُ اللّٰهِ, that it is thus used in a trad., and that عِبِدَّى is applied in another trad. to poor men of the class called أَهْلُ الصُّفَّة; (L;) and ↓ عُبُدَّآءُ and ↓ عِبِدَّةٌ and ↓ عِبَادٌّ (IKtt, TA) and ↓ مَعْبَدَةٌ, like مَشْيَخَةٌ, (T, O, K,) and ↓ مَعْبُودَآءُ (Yaakoob, S, O, K) and ↓ مَعْبُودَى, (IKtt, TA,) and [pl. pl.] ↓ مَعَابِدُ, (O, K,) said to be pl. of مَعْبَدَةٌ; (TA;) and pl. pl. أَعَابِدُ, (K,) pl. of أَعْبُدٌ; (TA;) and عَبِيدُونَ, (Es-Suyootee, MF,) app. pl. of ↓ عَبِيدٌ. (MF.) فَادْخُلِى فِى عِبَادِى, in the Kur lxxxix. 29, means Then enter thou among my righteous servants: (Ksh, Bd, Jel:) or it means فِى حِزْبِى [among my peculiar party].

A2: Also A certain plant, of sweet odour, (O, K, TA,) of which the camels are fond because it makes the milk to become plentiful, and fattens; it is sharp, or hot, (حَادّ O, or حَارّ TA,) in temperament; and when they depasture it they become thirsty, and seek the water: (O, TA:) so says IAar.

↓ العَابِدِينَ, means The disdainers, or scorners, and the angry: (S, * L:) but Ibn-'Arafeh rejects this assertion: (TA:) these words are variously explained; as meaning There is not to the Compassionate a son; and I am the first of the angry disdainers or scorners of the assertion that there is: or, and I am the first of the deniers of this assertion: or, and I am the first of the worshippers of God according to the unitarian doctrine, or, of the worshippers of God of this people: or if there were to the Compassionate a son, I would be the first of his worshippers: or if there be to the Compassionate a son, I am the first of worshippers; but I am not the first worshipper of God: or, accord. to Az, the best interpretation is one ascribed to Mujáhid; i. e. if there be to the Compassionate a son in your opinion, I am the first of those who have worshipped God alone, and who have thus charged you with uttering a falsehood in this your assertion. (L.) عَبْدَةٌ: see عَبْدٌ, latter half.

(L.) b5: [Hence also A joint, i. e. an articulation, of the fingers: and a bone of a finger, i. e. any one of the phalanges: it is used in both of these senses in the present day: and العُقْدَةُ مِنَ الأَصَابِعِ occurs in the Msb, in art. نمل, in explanation of الأَنْمَلَةُ; which is generally expl. as meaning “ the head of the finger,” or “ the portion in which is the nail. ” (See also مَعْقِدٌ.) b6: A knot, or joint, of a cane and the like.
