(TA.) b2: جَنَقُونَا بِالمَنْجَنِيقِ They cast at us with the منجنيق: mentioned by El-Fárisee on the authority of Az. (M.)

Q. Q. 1 مَجْنَقُوا: see 1 and 2.

مَنْجَنِيقٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and مِنْجَنِيقٌ (Msb, K) and ↓ مَنْجَنُوقٌ (Lth, IAar, Msb, K) [A kind of balista;] an instrument [or engine of war] with which stones are cast (S, M, K, TA) at the enemy; made by binding [in some manner] very tall wooden poles, whereon is placed what is to be cast, which is then struck with a long pole, and so cast to a very distant place: [this imperfect description (the only one that I have found of this engine) seems to show that it was of a very simple and rude construction:] it is an ancient instrument, anterior to the invention [or use] of gunpowder and cannons by the Christians; and was used by Mohammad in the siege of Et-Táïf; but the first [of the Arabs] who used it in the time of paganism is said to have been Jedheemeh El-Abrash, of the Mulook et-Tawáïf: (TA:) pl. مَنْجَنِيقَاتٌ (S, Msb, K) and مَنْجَنُوقَاتٌ (Lth, TA) and مَجَانِيقُ (Sb, S, Msb, K) and مَجَانِقُ: (K:) dim. ↓ مُجَيْنِيقٌ: (Sb, S:) it is fem., (Lth, S, Msb, K, *) preferably, (Lth, TA,) and in most instances; (Msb;) and hence it is also called الأُنْثَى; (M in art. انث;) but sometimes it is masc.: (Msb, K:) and is arabicized, (S, Msb, K,) from the Persian (S, K) مَنْ چِى نِيكْ, i. e. “ How excellent am I! ” (S,) or مَنْ چِهْ نِيكْ, i. e. “ I, how excellent am I! ” (K;) [Golius asserts it to be from the Greek μάγγανον but this is the original of مَنْجَنُونٌ, which has a different meaning: its derivation, however, seems to have been unknown to the Arabs in general; for] some say that مَنْجَنِيقٌ is of the measure مَفْعَلِيلٌ, [so in copies of the S, but correctly مَنْفَعِيلٌ, as in the Msb and TA,] because of the phrase نُجْنَقُ مَرَّةً [see 1]: (S, Msb: *) or, (Msb,) accord. to Sb, (S,) it is of the measure فَنْعَلِيلٌ; (S, Msb;) because مَجَانِيقُ is its pl. and the dim. is مُجَينِيقٌ; and because, if the م were augmentative as well as the ن, there would be two augmentative letters at the beginning of the noun, and this may not be in substs. nor in epithets that are not conformable to augmented verbs; and if the ن were made an essential part of the word, the noun would be a quadriliteral-radical, and augmentative letters are not prefixed to words of this class except nouns conformable to their verbs, like مُدَحْرَجٌ: (S, TA:) but MF says that these disquisitions are unprofitable; for in his opinion, all the letters of the word are radical, since it is a foreign word. (TA.) مَنْجَنِيِقىٌّ [app. A maker of the kind of engine called منجنيق; being mentioned as a surname:] a rel. n. from منجنيق. (K.)

(S, TA.) One says, عَلَيْكَ بِالمُدَارَاةِ وَالمُجَامَلَةِ [Keep thou to blandishment and coaxing, &c.]. (TA.) 4 اجمل He collected a thing (Msb, K) without discrimination, or distinction, (Msb,) or from a state of separation, or dispersion. (K.)

A3: [He acted with goodness, or was good and liberal: and he acted with moderation, or was moderate. You say,] اجمل فِى صَنِيعِهِ [He was good and liberal, or, perhaps, moderate, in his benefit]. (S.) And اجمل فِى الطَّلَبِ He was moderate, not extravagant, in demanding, or desire. (Msb, * K, TA.) It is said in a trad., أَجْمِلُوا فِى طَلَبِ الرِّزْقِ فَإِنَّ كُلًّا مُيَسَّرٌ لِمَا خُلِقَ لَهُ [Be ye moderate in demanding, or desiring, the means of subsistence, for every one is accommodated to that which is created for him].

جُمْلٌ: see جُمْلَةٌ and جُمَّلٌ; the latter in two places.

جَمَلٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ جَمْلٌ, (K,) which latter is so rare that it is said by some to be used only in poetry, in cases of necessity, (MF,) but it is a correct dial. var., (TA,) a word of well-known meaning; (K;) i. e., [A he-camel; but commonly applied to the camel as a generic term; in like manner as جَامِلٌ is applied to the males and the females; but properly,] the male of the إِبِل; (TA;) the mate of the نَاقَة; (Fr, S, Mgh;) among camels, corresponding to رَجُلٌ among us; (Sh, Msb;) نَاقَةٌ corresponding to مَرْأَةٌ, and بَكْرٌ to غُلَامٌ, and بَكْرَةٌ to جَارِيَةٌ; (Sh, TA;) [in general] peculiarly applied to the male; (Msb;) exceptionally to the female, as in the saying شَرِبْتُ لَبَنَ جَمَلِى, (K,) i. e., I drank the milk of my she-camel; but ISd doubts the correctness of this: (TA:) [as corresponding to رَجُلٌ among us, it signifies a full-grown hecamel:] or it signifies such as is termed رَبَاعٍ [or one in his seventh year]: (S, ISd, K:) or such as is termed جَذَعٌ [or one in his fifth year]: (ISd, K:) or such as is termed بَازِلٌ [or one in his ninth year]: (ISd, Mgh, Msb, K:) or such as is termed ثَنِىٌّ [or one in his sixth year]: (ISd, K:) or, accord. to Z, one that has covered: (TA:) [see also بَعِيرٌ, and بَكْرٌ, and قَعُودٌ:] pl.

It is said in a prov., مَااسْتَتَرَ مَنْ قَادَ الجَمَلَ [He does not conceal himself who leads the he-camel]. (TA.) And in another prov., اِتَّخَذَ اللَّيْلَ جَمَلًا (assumed tropical:) He journeyed all the night. (K, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 230.]) b2: الجَمَلُ also signifies A certain fish (IAar, K) of the sea, (IAar, TA,) thirty cubits in length: (K:) or, as some say, جَمَلُ البَحْرِ is the name of a very great fish, also called the بَال, [i. e., the whale,] thirty cubits in length: accord. to some, this, (TA,) or جَمَلُ المَآءِ, (Mgh,) is what is called the كَوْسَج and كُبَع (Mgh, TA) and لُخْم, [i. e., xiphias, or sword-fish,] which passes by nothing without cutting it. (TA.) [In the present day, جَمَلُ البَحْرِ is an appellation of The pelican.] b3: عَيْنُ الجَمَلِ, in the dial. of Egypt, i. q. الشَّاه بَلُّوط [The chestnut].

(S.) [جُمْلَةٌ مِنْ مَالٍ generally means A large sum of money; and in a similar sense جُمْلَةٌ is often used in relation to various things.] It is said in the Kur [xxv. 34], وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ لَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الْقُرْآنُ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً, i. e., [And those who disbelieved said, Wherefore was not the Kur-án sent down, or revealed, to him] aggregated? (TA:) [or in one aggregate?] or at once? (Bd.) [Hence, بِالجُمْلَةِ as meaning Upon the whole; to sum up.]

b3: And hence, in grammar, (TA,) [A proposition; a clause; a phrase; sometimes, a sentence;] a phrase composed of a subject and an attribute, [i. e., composed of an inchoative and an enunciative, (in which case it is termed جُمْلَةٌ اسْمِيَّةٌ,) or of a verb and its agent, (in which case it is termed جُمْلَةٌ فِعْلِيَّةٌ,)] (KT, TA,) [&c.,] whether affording a complete sense, as زَيْدٌ قَائِمٌ [Zeyd is standing], or not, as إِنْ يُكْرِمْنِى [If he treat me with honour].

It is said in a trad., إِنَّ اللّٰهَ جَمِيلٌ يُحِبُّ الجِمَالَ Verily God is comely in deeds, (TA,) or an Abundant Bestower of good things: He loveth those who are of the like character. (Er-Rághib, TA.) And you say, عَامَلَهُ بَالجَمِيلِ [He treated him with comely, or pleasing, behaviour]. (TA.) And مَاسَحَهُ بِالجَمِيل [He coaxed him, or wheedled him, with comely, or pleasing, behaviour or speech]. (ISd, K. [See 3.]) b2: أَبُو جَمِيلٍ [The kind of plants called] البَقْل; because they embellish by their presence, and render good, the seasoning of food; or because they take away the جَمِيل, i. e., the grease of the flesh-meat, and dry up the food.

[as a pl.; though, in relation to جُمَالَةٌ, it may be a coll. gen. n., forming its n. un. with ة]. (AA, K.) جِمَالَةٌ: see what next precedes.

(TA.) In all the forms mentioned above, except the last (جمالة), the word is read in the phrase [in the Kur vii. 38], حَتَّى يَلِجَ الجُمَّلُ فِى سَمِّ الخِيَاطِ [Until the cable shall enter into the eye of the needle]: (K, TA:) I 'Ab reads الجُمَّلُ, (S, TA,) and so do 'Alee and many others: ↓ جُمْلٌ is pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] of جُمْلَةٌ, a strand of a thick rope; or, accord. to IJ, pl. of جَمَلٌ [q. v.]: the first is explained by Fr as meaning ropes put together; but Aboo-Tálib thinks that he meant ↓ جُمَلٌ, without tesh-deed. (TA.) A2: حِسَابُ الجُمَّلِ, (S K,) thought by IDrd to be not Arabic, (TA,) and ↓ الجُمَلِ, (K,) but IDrd doubts its correctness, The calculation by means of the letters د ج ب ا, &c.

(M, TA.) b2: Also, said of a garment, or piece of cloth, (S, K,) and of a coat of mail, (K,) and of a skin for water or milk, (S,) It became threadbare, or worn, and soft, or smooth: (S, K:) or, said of a skin, and of a book, or writing, it became old and worn out.
