And one says, هُوَ فِى قَائِتٍ مِنَ العَيْشِ He is in a state of sufficiency [in respect of the means of subsistence]. (S. O.) b3: See also قُوتٌ, in two places.

A2: See also 8, former half. b2: القَائِتُ is an appellation of The lion. (O, K.) مُقِيتٌ [Giving, or a giver of, food, nourishment, or sustenance. (See 1, first sentence.) b2: and hence,] Keeping, preserving, guarding, or protecting; or a keeper, &c.; syn. حَافِظٌ [as signifying thus; and app. as signifying also watching; or a watcher]: (S, A, O, Msb, K:) and witnessing; or a witness; syn. شَاهِدٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) or شَهِيدٌ: (A:) and AO says that it signifies, with the Arabs, one acquainted (مَوْقُوفٌ) with a thing (عَلَى شَىْءٍ). (TA.) Th cites the following verses (of Es-Semow'al Ibn-Ádiyà, O): لَيْتَ شِعْرِى وَأَشْعُرَنَّ إِذَا مَا قَرَّبُوهَا مَنْشُورَةً وَدُعِيتُ

أَلِىَ الفَضْلُ أَمْ عَلَىَّ إِذَا حُو سِبْتُ إِنِّى عَلَى الحِسَابِ مُقِيتُ [meaning Would that I knew, but I shall assuredly know when they shall have set it (namely, the صَحِيفَة, or record, of my actions,) near, unfolded, and I am summoned, whether superiority be for me or against me when I am reckoned with: verily I shall be a watcher, or a witness, of the reckoning, or, accord. to some, as is said in the TA, acquainted with the reckoning]: i. e. I shall know what evil I have done; for [as is said in the Kur lxxv. 14] man shall be a witness against himself: (S, O, TA:) IB says that, accord. to Seer, the correct reading is, رَبِّى على الحساب مقيت [meaning my Lord is able to make the reckoning] because he who is submissive to his Lord does not describe himself by this epithet: but IB adds that Seer has founded this remark upon the assumption that مقيت is here used as meaning مُقْتَدِرٌ; and that if it be understood as syn. with حَافِظٌ and شَاهِدٌ, the former reading is not objectionable. (TA.) b3: المُقِيتُ is one of the best names of God: (TA:) and [as such] signifies The Possessor of power; (Fr, Zj, S, O, Msb, K, TA;) as He who gives to every man his قُوت [or food], (F, S, O, K, TA,) and likewise to everything: (TA:) or (as one of those names, TA) the Preserver, or Protector, (Zj, TA,) who gives to everything such preservation, or protection, as is needful. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [iv. 87], وَكَانَ اللّٰهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَىْءٍ مُقِيتًا, (S, O,) meaning [For God is] a possessor of power [over everything, or is omnipotent], (Ksh, Bd, Jel,) so He will requite everyone for what he has done: (Jel:) or a witness, [and] a preserver, or protector, or watcher. (Ksh, Bd.)
