نقاب which they used reached close to the eye, and they showed one eye while the other was concealed; whereas the [kind of] نقاب, which only shows both the eyes [without their circuits] was called by them وَصْوَصَةٌ [a mistake for وَصْوَاصٌ] and تُرْقُعٌ: [in the original, والنقاب لا يبدومنه الّا العينان وكان اسمه الخ: but the و before كان is erroneously introduced, and perverts the sense, which is otherwise plain, and agreeable with what is said before:] then they innovated the [veil] properly called] نقاب: (A'Obeyd:) pl. نَقُبٌ. (Msb.) A2: نِقَابٌ and ↓ مِنَقَبٌ A road through a rugged tract of ground: (K:) the former word used both as a sing and a pl. (TA.) A3: نِقَابٌ (a strange form of epithet, MF,) (tropical:) A man of great knowledge; very knowing: (S, K:) or possessing a knowledge of things, or affairs: or, as also ↓ مِنعقَبٌ, mentioned by I Ath and Z, a man possessing a knowledge of things, who scrutinizes or investigates them much; who is intelligent, and enters deeply into things. (TA.) A4: نقَابٌ The bello, Hence the proverb, فَرْخَانِ فِى نِقَابٍ [Two young birds in one belly]: applied to two things that resemble one another, (K.) In like manner one says كَانَا فِى نقاب وَاحد [They were in one belly]; meaning they were like each other, (A.) نَقِيبٌ i. q. مَنْقُوبٌ, A thing perforated, pierced, bored. or having a hole made through, or in. or into it. (TA.) b2: نَقِيبٌ A musical reed, or pipe.

(S: and the like is said in the L.) A2: نَقِيبُ قُوْمٍ The intendant, superintendent, overseer, or inspector, of a people; he who takes notice, or cognisance, of their actions, and is responsible for them; i. q. عَرِيفُهُمْ and شَاهِدُهُمْ and ضَمِيُهُمْ: (S, K:) like أَمِينٌ and كَفِيلٌ: (Zj:) their head, or chief: (TA:) like عَرِيفٌ [q. v.]; i. e., one who is set over a people, and investigates their affairs: (L:) or, as some say, the greatest, or supreme, chief of a people: so called [from نَقَبَ “ he scrutinized, or investigated,”] because he is acquainted with the secret affairs of the people, and knows their virtues, or generous actions, and is the way by which one obtains knowledge of their affairs: (TA:) pl. نُقَبَاءُ. (S.) نِقَابَةٌ The office of نَقِيب. (Sb: see 1.) نَقِيبَةٌ Mind: syn. نَفْسٌ. (S, K,) You say فُلَانٌ مَيْمُونُ النقيبةِ Such a one is of a fortunate mind, (A'Obeyd, S,) when the person referred to is fortunate in his affairs, succeeding in what he seeks after, or strives to accomplish: (ISk, S:) or when he is fortunate in his counsel, or advice: (Th, S:) or the phrase signifies such a one is fortunate in his actions, and in gaining what he seeks. (TA.) See also what follows. نَقِيبَةٌ is also said, in the K, to signify the same as عَقْلٌ (understanding, intellect, or intelligence); but, says SM, I have not found this in any other lexicon: only I have found the word explained in the L as signifying يُمْنُ الفِعْلِ (good fortune attending, or resulting from, an action): so probably عَقْلٌ is a mistake for فِعْلٌ. (TA.) b2: Also, Counsel, or advice. (K.) See above. b3: Also, Penetration of judgment; acuteness; sagacity. (Ibn-Buzurj, K.) b4: Also, Nature; or natural, or native, disposition, temper, or other quality: (K:) i. q. نَقِيمَةٌ and عَرِيكَةٌ and طَبِيعَةٌ. (T, art. عرك.)

(IAar.) Also هُوَ حَسَنُ النَّقِيبَةِ He is of a good nature, or natural disposition: and in like manner, جَمِيلَةٍ ↓ فُلَانٌ فِى مَنَاقِبَ Such a one is a person of good dispositions, or natural qualities. (L.) A2: نَقِيبَةٌ A she-camel having a large udder: (ISd, K:) having her udder bound up with a cloth or the like, on account of its greatness and excellence: but AM says this is a corruption, and that the correct word is ثقيبة, with ث, meaning a she-camel “ abounding with milk. ” (TA.) نَقَّابَةٌ: see نَقْبٌ.

نَاقِب and نَاقِبَةٌ [the former omitted in some copies of the K] A disease that befalls a man in consequence of long sluggishness, or indolence: (K:) or, as some say, the ulcer that arises in the side. (TA.) See نَقْبٌ.

أَنْقَابٌ, a pl. without a sing., The ears: (M, K,) or, accord. to some, its sing. is نُقْبٌ. (TA.) El-Katámee says, كَانَتْ خُدُودُ هِجَانِهِنَّ مُمَالَةً

أَنْقَابُهُنَّ إِلَى حُدَآءِ السُّوَّقِ [The cheeks of their white camels were with their ears inclined to the singing of the drivers]. But

أَنَقًا بِهِنَّ, “by reason of their pleasure,” is also read, for أَنْقَابُهُنَّ: (TA:) [so that the meaning is The cheeks of their white camels were inclined, by reason of their pleasure. to the singing of the drivers].

مَنْقَبٌ The navel: or [a place] before it: (K:) where the farrier makes a perforation in order that a yellow fluid may issue forth: (S:) so in a horse. (TA.) b2: See نَقْبٌ.

مَنْقَبَةٌ: see نَقْبٌ. b2: A narrow way between two houses, (L, K,) along which one cannot pass. (L.) It is said in a trad., that one does not possess the right of pre-emption (الشُّفْعَة) with respect to a منقبة; and this word is explained as signifying a wall: syn. حَائِطٌ: [and so in the K:] or a way between two houses, as though it were perforated from one to the other: or a road, or way, over an elevated piece of ground. (L.) A2: مَنْقَبَةٌ A virtue; an excellence; contr. of مَثْلَبَةٌ: (S:) a cause of glorying: (K:) generosity of action, or conduct: (L:) a [good disposition, or natural quality: [see نَقِيبَةٌ:] (TA:) a memorable, or generous action, and [good] internal quality: (A:) pl. مَنَاقِبُ: (TA:) رجُلٌ ذُو مَنَاقِبَ A man of memorable, or generous, actions, and [good] internal qualities.

نذر

1 نَذَرَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ, (Yoo, Akh, T, S, M, A, * K,) aor. ـِ and نَذُرَ, (M, K,) inf. n. نَذْرٌ (Yoo, Akh, S, M, K,) and نُذُورٌ, (M, K,) [He made a vow; imposed upon himself a vow; أَنْ يَفْعَلَ كَذَا that he would do such a thing; either absolutely, or conditionally, as will be explained below;] he made [a future action] binding, or obligatory, on himself; (T, M, A, K;) as also ↓ انتذر. (K.) And نَذْرًا ↓ انتذر signifies the same as نَذَرَ [He vowed a vow]. (Sgh.) You say also نَذَرْتُ مَالِى, aor. ـُ [and نَذِرَ as implied in the K] inf. n. نَذْرٌ, [I vowed my property; made a vow to give it.] (Yoo, Akh, S, K. *) And نَذَرْتُ لِلّٰهِ كَذَا, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ and نَذِرَ, (S, Msb,) inf. n. نَذْرٌ, (Msb,) I made it binding, or obligatory, on myself, [i. e., I vowed,] of my own free will, to do or to give such a thing to God; namely, some religious service, or an alms, &c.: (TA:) or نَذْرٌ signifies the promising conditionally; as when one says, “Such a thing shall be obligatory on me if God restore to health my sick [son or other]: ”

this is termed نَذْرٌ: but the saying “ I impose upon myself the giving a deenár as alms,” is not so termed. (K.) The doing this is repeatedly forbidden in traditions: but what is meant thereby is, one's doing so in the belief that he may attain by it something which God has not decreed to betide him, or that he may divert from himself something decreed to befall him: yet if he do so, fulfilment is obligatory on him. (IAth.) Yousay also, نَذَرَ الوَلَدَ, (M, K,) and نَذَرَتْهُ, (M,) He (the father, M, K) and she (the mother, M) appointed the child [by a vow] to be a minister or servant to the church, (M, K,) or to a place appropriated to religious services or exercises, or acts of devotion: (TA:) so in the Kur, iii. 31. (M.) A2: نَذِرَ بِالشَّىْءِ, aor. ـَ (M, IKtt, Msb, K,) inf. n. نَذَرٌ (M, IKtt) and نَذَارَةٌ and نِذَارَةٌ, (IKtt,) or, as some assert, it has no inf. n., like عَسَى &c., the Arabs being content to use in its stead أَنْ followed by the verb, as is said in the 'Ináyeh, on the Kur, chap. xiv., (MF,) He knew of the thing: (Msb:) or he knew of the thing and was cautious of it or on his guard against it or in fear of it. (M, K.) You say also نَذِرَ القَوْمُ بالعَدُوِّ (S, A) The people knew of the enemy: (S:) or knew of the enemy and prepared themselves for them: (A:) or knew of the enemy and were cautious of them or on their guard against them or in fear of them. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., إِنْذَرِ القَوْمَ Have thou knowledge of the people and be cautious of them or on thy guard against them or in fear of them. (TA.) 4 أَنْذَرْتُهُ بِالأَمْرِ, (M, K,) and انذرته الشَّىْءَ, (Msb,) inf. n. إِنْذَارٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and نُذْرٌ (M, K) the latter accord. to Kr, but correctly it is a simple subst., (M,) and نُذُرٌ, (T, K,) or this is pl. of نَذِيرٌ, (T,) and نَذْرٌ, (K,) accord. to Lh and Kr, (TA,) [but this is properly a simple subst.,] and نَذِيرٌ, (M, K,) accord. to Zj, (M,) or Ez-Zejjájee, (TA,) but this should rather be regarded as a simple subst., (T, M,) I informed him, or advised him, of the thing: (M, K, TA:) this is the primary signification: (TA:) and [I warned him of the thing;] I cautioned him, or put him on his guard, against the thing, and put him in fear, (M, * K,) in my communication or announcement: (K:) in this sense the verb is used in the Kur, xl. 18: (M, TA:) or I announced to him the thing, (S, * Msb,) generally in a case of putting in fear the person addressed, or frightening him, (Msb,) or never otherwise than in such a case: (S:) and thus the verb is used in the Kur, ubi supra., وَأَنْذرْهُم يَوْمَ آلازِفَةِ [and warn them and put them in fear of the day of the approaching event, the day of resurrection] meaning, put them in fear of its punishment: (Msb:) and أَنْذَزْتُهُ بِكَذَا I informed him, or advised him, of such a thing. (Msb.) انذرهُ also signifies He (a spy) informed him, or advised him, of the state of the enemy: in the copies of the K, نَذَرَهُ; but this is a mistake. (TA.) And you say, أَنْذَرْتُ القَوْمَ مَسِيرَ العَدُرِّ

إِلَيْهِمْ I informed the people of the march of the enemy towards them, to put them on their guard. (T.) And أَنْذَرْتُ القَوْمَ بِالعَدُوِّ, and أَنْذَرْتُهُمُ العَدُوَّ, signify the same. (A.) It is said in a proverb, قَدْ أَعْذَرَ مَنْ أَنْذَرَ, meaning, He hath become excused, and averted from himself the blame of men, who hath warned thee that he will punish thee for a future evil deed proceeding from thee, if thou then do the evil deed and he punish thee. (T.) See also أَعْذَرَ, in two places: and see عُذْرٌ.6 تناذر القَوْمُ The people warned, or cautioned, one another, or put one another in fear, (M, K,) of a terrifying evil. (TA.) You say تناذر القَوْمُ كَذَا The people warned one another, (S,) and put one another in fear, of such a thing. (S, A.) A poet says, (S,) namely, En-Nábighah, (T, TA,) describing a serpent, (T,) and his being threatened by En-Noamán so that he passed the night as though he had been stung, turning over and over upon his bed, (TA,) تَنَاذَرَهَا الرَّاقُونَ مِنْ سُوْءِ سَمِّهَا تُطَلِّقُهُ طَوْرًا وَطَوْرًا تُرَاجِعُ [Of which the charmers have warned one another, and put one another in fear, on account of the evil nature of its poison, which it discharges one time and one time draws back]. (T, S, TA.) 8 إِنْتَذَرَ see نَذَرَ, in two places.10 استنذر إِلَيْهِ He offered warning to him (A, TA, art. عذر.) See استعذر.

نَذْرٌ A vow, which a man makes to be binding, or obligatory, on himself; (T, M, * K, * TA;) [either absolutely, or conditionally: (see نَذَرَ:)] pl. نُذُورٌ: (S, M, K: *) and in the following verse of Ibn-Ahmar, some say that نُذُر is pl. of نَذْرٌ, like as رُهُنٌ is pl. of رَهْنٌ; but others say that it is pl. of نَذِيرٌ in the sense of مَنْذُورٌ: كَمْ دُونَ لَيْلَى مِنْ تَنُوفِيَّةٍ

لَمَّاعَةٍ تُنْذَرُ فِيهَا النُّذُرْ [How many a waterless desert glistening with the mirage, in which vows, or things vowed, are vowed, lie in the way to Leylà!]. (S.) b2: Also, (tropical:) The mulct for an intentional wound; used in this sense by Esh-Sháfi'ee, (T, TA,) and of the dial. of El-Hijáz; (TA;) i. q. أَرْشٌ, (T, A, K, TA,) which is of the dial. of the people of El-'Irák: (T, TA:) pl. نُذُورٌ: (T, A, K:) said by Aboo-Nahshal to be only for wounds, small and great. (T, K. *) You say, لِى قِبَلَ فُلَانٍ نَذْرٌ, (T, TS, L,) or عِنْدَ فُلَانٍ, (K,) (tropical:) A mulct for a wound is owed to me. (T, K, &c.) And أَعْطَيْتُهُ نَذْرَ جُرْحِهِ (tropical:) I gave him the mulct for his wound. (A.) Aboo-Sa'eed Ed-Dareer says that it is thus called لِأَنَّهُ نُذِرَ فِيهِ, i. e., because it is made binding, or obligatory, for it; [namely, for the wound;] from the phrase نَذَرْتُ علَى نَفْسِى. (T, TA.) b3: [A votive offering].

A2: See also نُذْرٌ.

نُذْرٌ (M) and ↓ نُذُرٌ (T, S, K) [and ↓ نَذْرٌ (see 4)] and ↓ نَذِيرٌ (S, M) and ↓ نَذِيرَةٌ (M) and ↓ نِذَارَةٌ (Esh-Sháfi'ee, K) and ↓ نُذْرَى (K) are substs. in the sense of إِنْذَارٌ [meaning An informing, or advising, of a thing: and a warning, or cautioning, and putting one on his guard, against a thing, and putting one in fear of a thing; &c.: (see 4:)] (T, S, M, K:) or a putting one in fear in announcing a thing. (TA.) عُذْرًا

أَوْ نُذْرًا and عُذُرًا أَوْ نُذُرًا, accord. to different readings, in the Kur, lxxvii. 6, put in the accus. case as causal complements, signify لِلْإِعْذَارِ وَالْإِنْذَارِ [For excusing and warning]. (Zj, T.) [See also art. عذر.] And in like manner, ↓ نُذُرِ, in the Kur, liv. 16, &c., signifies إِنْذَارِى. (S, K.) And so ↓ نَذِيرِ, in the Kur, lxvii. 17. (T, M.) Hence also the saying of the Arabs, عُذْرَاكَ لَا نُذْرَاكَ, meaning, أَعْذِرُ وَلَا تُنْذِرْ [i. e. Do thou that for which thou wilt be excused, by inflicting punishment when it is deserved, and do not merely warn and put in fear]. (TA.) نُذُرٌ: see نُذْرٌ.

(TA.) b2: [Hence,] ابو مُنْذِرٍ The cock (Har. p. 644). b3: [And also,] النَّذِيرُ The apostle: (M, K:) so in the Kur, xxxv. 34, accord. to Th: (M:) the prophet Mohammad: (T, K:) so, accord. to most of the expositors, in that verse of the Kur. (T.) b4: Hoariness, or whiteness of the hair: (T, M, K:) so, accord. to some, in the verse of the Kur, last referred to: (T, M:) but the explanation immediately preceding is more probable. (T.) b5: The sound of a bow: (AHn, M, K:) because it warns, or frightens, (يُنْدِرُ,) that which is shot at. (AHn, M.) A2: I. q. مَنْذُورٌ [i. e. Vowed]: pl. نُذُرٌ. (S.) See نَذْرٌ.
