صد

ى1 صَدِىَ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـْ (S, Mgh, Msb,) inf. n. صَدًى, He thirsted: (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) or he thirsted vehemently. (M.) A2: صَدَا, inf. n. صَدْوٌ: see 2, in two places.2 تَصْدِيَةٌ signifies The clapping with the hands; syn. تَصْفِيقٌ; (S, K;) accord. to Er-Rághib, as being like the echo (الصَّدَى), inasmuch as there is no profit in it; (TA;) or it is from الصَّدُّ, because they [who practised it in their worship] used to turn away (كَانُوا يَصُدُّونَ) from El-Islám; (K;) [see more in the second paragraph of art. صد;] and صَدْوٌ [an inf. n. of which the verb is ↓ صَدَا] signifies the same; (K;) and so ↓ تَصَدٍّ, of which AHeyth cites as an ex. the saying of Hassán صَلَاتُهُمُ التَّصَدَّى وَالمُكَآءُ [Their prayer is the clapping with the hands, and whistling: like the saying in the Kur viii. 35]: (TA:) one says of a man, صدّى, (M,) or صدّى

بِيَدَيْهِ, (TA,) meaning He clapped with his hands; (M, TA;) [said to be] originally صَدَّدَ; (M;) and بِيَدَيْهِ ↓ صَدَا, inf. n. صَدْوٌ [mentioned above], meaning the same. (TK.)

In the Kur xxxviii. 1, some read صَادِ, with kesr, as an imperative from المُصَادَاةُ (Bd, TA) as meaning المُعَارَضَةُ; and hence الصَّدَى [i. e. the echo], because it imitates (يُعَارِضُ) the first sound: so that the meaning is, Imitate thou (عَارِض) the Kur-án by thy works. (Bd.) b2: [And] i. q. دَبَّرَهُ [i. e. He considered, or forecast, its issues, or results; did, performed, or executed, it with thought, or consideration; or managed, conducted, ordered, or regulated, it]; relating to an affair: (M:) [or] المُصَادَاةُ signifies the turning about, or revolving, the opinion, or idea, [that one forms] respecting the management (تَدْبِير) of a thing, and the doing of it: (Ham p. 35:) [or,] accord. to As, the minding a thing attentively, carefully, or solicitously: a man who had assisted his she-camel in her bringing forth said, بِتُّ أُصَادِيهَا طُولَ لَيْلِى [I passed all my night minding her attentively, carefully, or solicitously]; because he disliked binding her fore shank to her arm, as it would distress her; or leaving her, as she might go away at random and the wolf might devour her young one: and in like manner one says of the pastor, يُصَادِى إِبِلَهُ [He minds attentively, &c., his camels]; when they thirst before the completion of their usual period of being kept from drinking, he restricts them to journeying by night so as to arrive at water on the morrow. (TA.) b3: And He soothed, coaxed, wheedled, or cajoled, him; or deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, him; or strove, endeavoured, or desired, to do so: syn. دَارَاهُ, (S, M, K, TA,) and دَاجَاهُ, and سَاتَرَهُ, (S, K, TA,) all of which have one meaning, (TA,) [though the last implies concealing enmity,] and لَايَنَهُ. (M.) مَنْ صَادَاكَ فَقَدْ صَادَكَ [He who soothes thee, or coaxes thee, surely ensnares thee] is a saying mentioned in the A. (TA.) 4 اصدى It (a mountain) returned an echo. (S, * K.) b2: And He (a man, TA) died; (K, TA;) as though [meaning] his echo ceased; the | having a privative effect. (TA.) 5 التَّصَدِّى, accord. to Er-Rághib, signifies The corresponding to a thing like as does the echo returning from the mountain. (TA.) [But accord. to others,] تصدّى لَهُ is originally تَصَدَّدَ; (Az and L in art. صد;) and signifies تَعَرَّضَ, (S, M, K,) and تَضَرَّعَ. (M.) [See 5 in art. صد; where the usages of this verb, except in the senses mentioned and indicated here below, are fully explained.] b2: It signifies also The feigning oneself unmindful, negligent, inattentive, inadvertent, inconsiderate, or heedless, not being really so. (TA.) b3: And The diverting oneself. (TA.) b4: See also 2.

صَدًى [sometimes written صَدًا] An echo; i. e. الصَّدَى signifies what the mountain returns to him who utters a sound, or voice, or cry, therein; (K;) or the sound of the mountain and the like that responds to one; (M;) or what responds to one with the like of his voice, or cry, in the mountains &c. (S.) One says, صَمَّ صَدَاهُ (tropical:) [His echo became dumb, or may his echo become dumb]; (S, TA;) meaning he perished, or may he perish: (S and K and TA in art. صم:) and أَصَمَّ اللّٰهُ صَدَاهُ (tropical:) [May God make his echo to return no sound]; (S, K, TA;) meaning may God destroy him: (S, K, and TA in art. صم:) for when a man dies, the صدى hears not from him anything, that it should respond to him. (S. [See also another explanation of this saying in what follows.]) b2: And A sound, voice, or cry, (M, TA,) in an absolute sense. (TA.) b3: Also The part of the head, (M,) or the part of the brain, (TA,) which is the place [or seat] of hearing. (M, TA.) And therefore one says, أَصَمَّ اللّٰهُ صَدَاهُ [May God render deaf the part of his brain which is the seat of hearing]. (TA.) b4: And The brain, (M, K, TA,) itself. (TA.) And The [entire] contents (lit. the stuffing, حَشْو,) of the head; (M, K, TA;) also called the هَامَة. (TA.) One says, صَدَعَ اللّٰهُ صَدَاهُ [May God crack his brain, or the contents of his head]. (M.) b5: And A bird that cries in the هَامَة [or head] of the slain when his blood has not been avenged by retaliation: (M:) or a bird that comes forth (M, K) from his head, (مِنْ رَأْسِهِ, M,) or from the head of the slain, (K,) when he, or it, has become consumed, or decayed, (M, K,) also called the هَامَة; (M;) accord. to the assertion of the people of the Time of Ignorance; (M, K;) mentioned by A 'Obeyd; and some of them used to say that the bones of the dead became a هَامَة, which flew: pl. أَصْدَآءٌ: (TA:) and [this may be meant by the saying that it signifies] the male of the بُوم (S, M, K, TA) and هَام: pl. أَصْدَآءٌ: (M:) they used to say that when a man was slain and his blood was not avenged by retaliation, there came forth from his head a bird like the بُومَة, i. e. the هَامَة, the male being called the صدى; and it cried upon his grave, اِسْقُونِى اِسْقُونِى [Give ye me to drink, give ye me to drink, meaning, of the blood of the slayer]; and if the slayer was slain, it abstained from its crying: (TA:) and [it is said that] it signifies also the body [itself] of a human being after his death; (M, K;) or the remains of the dead in his grave, i. e. his جُثَّة [or corpse]. (JM, TA.) b6: And, (K,) accord. to El-'Adebbes, (S,) [A cricket;] a certain flying thing, that creaks by night, and hops, (S, K,) and flies, thought by the [common] people to be the جُنْدَب, but it is only the صدى, the جندب being smaller than the صدى.

(TA.) b8: and [A man] small, or slender, in person; (AA, M, K, TA;) and so صَدَأْ, with ء, as mentioned by Az. (TA. [See also صَدْعٌ and صَدَعٌ.]) b9: and Knowing in respect of what is conducive to the good of cattle: (K:) or صَدَى مَالٍ means thus: (M:) or gentle in the management of cattle; like

إِزَآءُ مَالٍ: so in the JM: (TA:) or, as some particularly say, of camels: (M, TA:) [i. e.] you say, إِنَّهُ لَصَدَى إِبِلٍ, meaning Verily he is knowing in respect of camels, and of what is conducive to their good. (S.) A2: Also Thirst: (S, M, K:) or vehement thirst: (M:) [see the first paragraph, in which it is mentioned as an inf. n.:] it is said that thirst does not become vehement but the brain dries, and therefore the skin of the forehead of him who dies of thirst cracks. (TA.) b2: See also the next paragraph.

A3: And The act of the مُتَصَدِّى, (M, K, TA,) i. e., [as is indicated in the M,] of him who raises his head and breast, looking towards, or regarding, a thing; and so ↓ صَدَاةٌ.

(TA. See 6 in art. فسأ.) الفَسَا is a dial. var. of الفَسَأُ [i. e. فَسًا is a dial. var. of فَسَأٌ, expl. in art. فسأ]. (K.) الفُسَاةُ: see the paragraph here following.

فَسْوَةٌ [is the inf. n. of unity of فَسَا, as such signifying A single noiseless emission of wind from the anus: and] has for its pl. [فَسَوَاتٌ, agreeably with rule, and also] فُسًى, which is [anomalous,] like شُهًى pl. of شَهْوَةٌ, which see. (TA.) b2: لَيْسَ لَهُ إِلَّا فَسْوَةُ الضَّبُعِ [the lit. signification of which is sufficiently plain] occurs in a trad. as meaning (assumed tropical:) There is not any benefit, or profit, or utility, attributable to it; [or rather, it is worse than useless;] the ضبع [or hyena] being particularized because of its stupidity and its evil nature: or, some say, it [i. e.

(TA.) Hence the prov., أَفْحَشُ مِنْ فَاسِيَةٍ i. e. [More foul than] a خنفساء. (S, M.) الفَاسِيَآءُ: see the next preceding paragraph. b2: [اِبْنُ الفَاسِيَآءِ is an appellation of The insect called قَرَنْبَى, resembling the beetle called خُنْفَسَآء, or somewhat larger than the latter, with long hind legs, and with a speckled back: for القَرَنْبَى, as the explanation of ا, the TA, in art. بنى, has القرينى; and the TT, in that art., as from the T,.

الفُرَنَى: what I have here substituted for these is evidently, in my opinion, right.]

أَفْسَى مِنَ الظَّرِبَانِ [More wont to emit noiseless wind from the anus than the ظربان, a small stinking beast, described in art. ظرب,] is a saying of the Arabs. (TA.) المَفْسَى The anus [as being the place of emission of the فُسَآء]. (TA.) مَا أَقْرَبَ مَحْسَاهُ مِنْ مَفْسَاهُ [How near is his mouth to his anus!] is a prov.

(K, TA.) b5: زَلَّتِ الدَّرَاهِمُ, (S, Msb, * K,) aor. ـِ (S, Msb,) inf. n. زُلُولٌ, (S, K,) or زَلِيلٌ, (Msb,) The dirhems, or pieces of money, poured out, or forth: (K:) or were, or became, deficient in weight. (S, Msb, * K.) b6: زَلَّ, inf. n. زَلَلٌ, (K,) said of a man, (TA,) [and app. of a wolf, (see أَزَلُّ,)] He was, or became, light [of flesh] in the hips, or haunches: (K:) or زَلَلٌ signifies a woman's having little flesh in the posteriors and thighs. (S.) A2: زَلَّ, aor. ـِ accord. to analogy, as an intrans. v., from أَزْلَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ meaning “ I gave to him ” of food &c., should signify He took, or received: and hence the saying of the lawyers, وَيَزِلُّ إِنْ عَلِمَ الرِّضَى And he shall take, or receive, or the food [if he have knowledge of permission, or consent]. (Msb.) A3: زُلَّ i. q. دُقِّقَ [app. as meaning He, or it, was made, or rendered, thin, or slender]. (IAar, TA.) 2 زَلَّّ see the next paragraph, near its end.4 ازلّهُ, (K,) inf. n. إِزْلَالٌ, (TA,) He, or it, made him, or caused him, to slip in mud, (K, TA,) or in speech, or in judgment, or opinion, or in religion; (TA;) and ↓ استزلّهُ signifies the same. (S, * MA, K, * PS. [But respecting this latter, see what follows.]) It is said in the Kur [ii. 34], فَأَزَلَّهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ عَنْهَا [And the Devil made them, or caused them, both, to slip, or fall, from it, namely, Paradise (الجَنَّة)]; and one reading is أَزَالَمُهَا, i. e. removed them: or, as some say, it means caused them to commit a slip, or wrong action, in consequence of it [referring to the tree]: or, accord. to Th, caused them to slip in judgment. (TA.) And in the same, iii. 149, ↓ اسْتَزَلَّهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ The Devil made them, or caused them, to slip: (Jel:) or, as some say, sought to make them commit a slip, or wrong action. (TA.) b2: One says also, أَزَلَّ فُلَانًا إِلَى القَوْمِ He sent forward such a one to the people, or party. (TA.) b3: And أَزَلَّهُ عَنْ رَأْيِهِ He made him to turn from his opinion. (MA.) b4: And as زَلِيلٌ signifies the “ passing ” of a body from one place to another, one says, speaking metaphorically, (IAth, TA,) أَزَلَّ إِلَيْهِ نِعْمَةً (tropical:) He did to him a benefit: (S, IAth, K:) whence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., مَنْ أُزِلَّتْ إِلَيْهِ نِعْمَةٌ فَلْيَشْكُرْهَا (assumed tropical:) He to whom a benefit is done [let him be grateful for it]. (A'Obeyd, S, * Mgh, Msb.) And أَزْلَلْتُ لَهُ زُلَّةً (assumed tropical:) I did to him a benefit: one should not say زللت [thus written, app. for ↓ زَلَّلْتُ: but see مُزَلِّلٌ]. (TA.) And أَزْلَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ [alone] (assumed tropical:) I gave to him: or I did to him a benefit. (Msb.) And أَزْلَلْتُ

إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَغَيْرِهِ (assumed tropical:) I gave to him of the food and other things. (IKtt, TA.) And أَزَلَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَقِّهِ شَيْئًا (assumed tropical:) He gave to him somewhat of his due. (S, K.) And أَزَلَّ عَنْهُ نِعْمَةً (assumed tropical:) He drew forth from him a benefit. (TA.) 10 إِسْتَزْلَ3َ see 4, in two places. R. Q. 1 زَلْزَلَهُ, (S, * Msb, K, &c.,) inf. n. زَلْزَلَةٌ and زِلْزَالٌ and زَلْزَالٌ and زُلْزَالٌ, (K,) or the first of these is an inf. n. [by universal consent], (S,) and so is the second, but the third is a simple subst., (Zj, S, Msb,) though this and the fourth [which is the least known] have the authority of certain readings of passages of the Kur, namely, xcix. 1 for both of these, and xxxiii. 11 for the latter of them, (TA,) He put it, or him, into a state of motion, commotion, or agitation: (Msb, K, TA:) or into a state of convulsion, or violent motion. (Zj, TA.) You say, زَلْزَلَ اللّٰهُ الأَرْضَ [i. e. God made the earth to quake: or to quake violently:] (S:) [or] put the earth into a state of convulsion, or violent motion. (Zj, TA) And جَآءَ بِالإِبِلِ يُزَلْزِلُهَا He came with, or brought, the camels, driving them with roughness, violence, or vehemence. (TA.) Some say that زَلْزَلَةٌ is from الزَّلَلُ فِى الرَّأْىِ [i. e. “ the making a slip in judgment, or opinion ”]: so when one says, زُلْزِلَ القَوْمُ the meaning is, The people, or party, were turned away from the right course, and fear was cast into their hearts. (TA.) It is said in a trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ اهْزِمِ الأَحْزَابَ وَزَلْزِلْهُمْ i. e. [O God, rout, defeat, or put to flight, the combined forces, and] make their state of affairs to be unsound, or unsettled. (TA.) Accord. to IAmb, أَصَابَتِ القَوْمَ زَلْزَلَةٌ means An affrighting befell the people, or party; from the saying in the Kur [ii. 210], وَزُلْزِلُوا حَتَّى يَقُولَ الرَّسُولُ i. e. And they were affrighted [so that the Apostle said]: (L, TA:) or were vehemently agitated. (Ksh, Bd.) b2: مَا زَلْزَلْتُ قَطُّ مَآءً أَبْرَدَ مِنْ مَآءِ الثغوبِ [or الثَّغَبِ, as it is written in the explanation of this saying, the latter being app. the right reading], said by Aboo-Shembel, means I have not put into my throat, or fauces, ever, water slipping into it cooler than the water of the ثَغَب [or pool left by a torrent in the shade of a mountain]. (Az, TA.) R. Q. 2 تَزَلْزَلَ It was, or became, in a state of motion, commotion, agitation, convulsion, or violent motion. (Msb, TA.) You say, تَزَلْزَلَتِ الأَرْضُ (S, Msb, TA) The earth [quaked: or quaked violently:] was, or became, in a state of motion, commotion, &c.: (Msb:) the verb in this phrase [and in others] is quasi-pass. of R. Q. 1. (S, TA.) And تَزَلْزَلَتْ نَفْسُهُ His soul reciprocated in his chest at death. (TA.) زُلٌّ Slippery: (S:) a place in which one slips; (K;) and ↓ زَلَلٌ signifies the same; (S, K;) and ↓ زَلُولٌ [likewise, i. e.] a place in which the foot slips. (TA.) You say مَقَامٌ زُلٌّ and ↓ زَلَلٌ, and مَقَامَةٌ زُلٌّ and ↓ زَلَلٌ, [A standing-place] in which one slips. (K.) And زُحْلُوقَةٌ زُلٌّ and ↓ زَلَلٌ A slippery [sloping slide or rolling-place &c.]. (S.) [See also مَزِلَّةٌ.]

زَلَّةٌ A slip (S, Msb, * K) in mud, or in speech; a subst. from 1 meaning as expl. in the first sentence of this art.; (S, K:) as also ↓ زِلِّيلَى: (S: [but this latter is mentioned by Lh and in the K as an inf. n.:]) a slip, or lapse; (K:) a fault, a wrong action, a mistake, or an error; (Msb, K;) or a sin, or crime; (K, * TA;) a fall into sin or crime. (Msb in art. عثر.) One says, زَلَّ الرَّجُلُ زَلَّةً قَبِيحَةً The man [made a foul slip; or] fell into the commission of a disapproved, or hateful, or foul, act; or committed an exorbitant, an abominable, or a foul, mistake: whence the trad., نَعُوذُ بِاللّٰهِ مِنْ زَلَّةِ العَالِمِ [We seek protection by God from the slip of the learned man]: and the well-known saying, زَلَّةٌ العَالِمِ زَلَّةُ العَالَمِ [The slip of the learned man is the slip of the world at large]. (TA.) b2: A benefit, or good action; (Mgh, * K;) as also ↓ زُلَّةٌ: (K:) a gift. (Msb.) b3: A feast, or repast, that is prepared for guests. (Lth, O, Msb.) One says, اِتَّخَذَ فُلَانٌ زَلَّةً [Such a one made, or prepared, a feast for guests]. (Lth, O, Msb.) Hence, (Lth, TA,) it is also a name for Food that is carried from the table of one's friend or relation: a word of the dial. of El-'Irák: (Lth, Msb, K:) or in this sense it is a vulgar word, (K, TA,) used by the common people of El-'Irák (TA.) And i. q. عُرْسٌ [as meaning A marriage-feast]. (ISh, Az, Msb, K.) So in the saying, كُنَّا فِى زَلَّةِ فُلَانٍ [We were at the marriage-feast of such a one]. (ISh, Az, Msb, TA.) زُلَّةٌ: see زَلَّةٌ.

A2: Also A straitened state of the breath [unless النَّفَسِ be a mistranscription for النَّفْس the soul, which I think not improbable]. (K.) زِلَّةٌ Stones: or smooth stones: (K:) pl. زِلَلٌ. (TA.) زَلَلٌ an inf. n. of 1, [q. v,] (Fr, S, Msb, K,) in two [or three] senses. (K.) A2: See also زُلٌّ, in four places.

A3: Also A deficiency: so in the saying, فِى مِيزَانِهِ زَلَلٌ [In its weight is a deficiency]. (Lh, K.) زُلَالٌ A certain animal, of small, white body; which, when it dies, is put into water, and renders it cool, or cold: (TA:) [Golius describes it as a worm that is bred in snow; of which Aristotle speaks in his Hist. Animalium, l. ↓. 19; and he adds, on the authority of Dmr, that it is of the length of a finger, generally marked with yellow spots; and swelling in water such as is termed ماء الزلال.] b2: Hence, [it is said to be] applied to water, as meaning Cool, or cold: (TA:) or, so applied, sweet: (S:) or sweet, clear, or limpid, pure, easy in its descent, that slips into the throat; as also ↓ زُلَازِلٌ: (TA:) or quick in its descent and passage in the throat, (K, * TA,) cool, or cold, sweet, clear, or limpid, easy in its descent; as also ↓ زَلِيلٌ and ↓ زَلُولٌ and ↓ زُلَازِلٌ. (K.) b3: And Clear, as applied to anything. (TA.) زَلُولٌ: see زُلٌّ: b2: and see also زُلَالٌ.

زَلِيلٌ: see زُلَالٌ. b2: Also [The kind of sweet food called] فَالُوذ [q. v.]. (Sgh, K.) زِلِّيَّةٌ, an arabicized word from the Pers\. زِيلُو, (K in art. زلى, in the CK زَيْلُو, [“ a sort of woollen blanket,”] A carpet; syn. بِسَاطٌ: (K in the present art.:) a certain sort of بُسُط [or carpets, said by Golius to be generally woollen and villous, but by Freytag to be woollen but not villous]: (Msb:) [in Johnson's Pers\. Arab. and Engl. Dict. expl. as meaning a coverlet of woollen, without a pile, neither striped nor painted:] pl. زَلَالِىٌّ. (S, Msb, K.) زِلِّيلَى: see زَلَّةٌ.

It is said in a prov., هُوَ أَسْمَعُ مِنَ السِّمْعِ الأَزَلِّ [He is more quick of hearing than the سمع that is lean in the rump and thighs; or than the light, or active, سمع]. (S, TA.) b4: قَوْسٌ زَلَّآءُ A bow from which the arrow slips, by reason of the rapidity with which it goes forth.

سردق

[Q. 1. سَرْدَقَ, inf. n. سَرْدَقَةٌ, He covered a house with an awning over its interior court, as a protection from the heat of the sun: so accord. to Golius, as on the authority of the KL: and the same is indicated by the explanation of the pass. part. n. in the PS: but in the KL, I find only the inf. n. expl. by سَرَاپَرْدَهْ كَرْدَنْ: the verb may, however, be better expl. as signifying he furnished with a سُرَادِق, q. v.]

سُرَادِقٌ, said by El-Jawáleekee to be an arabicized word from [the Pers\.] سَرَادَرْ or سَرَاطَاقْ, (MF,) An awning extended over the interior court of a house: (S, O, Msb, K:) [and the cover of a tent:] and any tent of cotton: (S, O, K, and mentioned in the Msb as on the authority of J:) or a [ tent of the kind called] فُسْطَاط; (Bd in xviii. 28;) so says AO: (Msb:) also (Msb) an enclosure around a خَيْمَة [or tent], consisting of pieces of cloth, without a roof: (Mgh, Msb:) or an enclosure (حُجْرَة) around a فُسْطَاط: (Ksh and Bd ubi suprá:) or what surrounds the [tent called] خَيْمَة and the [tent called] قُبَّة: (Ham p. 772:) or any wall or enclosure, or [tent such as is called] مِضْرَب or [such as is called] خِبَآء

that surrounds a thing: (IAth, TA:) pl. سُرَادِقَاتٌ: (S O, K:) it has this pl., though it is masc., because. it has no broken pl. (Sb, TA.) ElKedhdháb El-Hirmázee says, not Ru-beh as in the “ Book ” of Sb [and in the S], addressing Hakam Ibn-El-Mundhir Ibn-El-Járood, سُرَادِقُ المَجْدِ عَلَيْكَ مَمْدُودْ (assumed tropical:) [The canopy of glory is extended over thee]. (O, TA.) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) Dust rising; or spreading, or diffusing itself. (Az, O, K.) b3: and (assumed tropical:) Smoke rising high, and surrounding a thing. (Az, O, K.) b4: In the Kur xviii. 28, it is applied to what will surround the unbelievers, of the fire of Hell, (Ksh, Bd,) as being likened to a فُسْطَاط, (Bd,) or to an enclosure around a فسطاط; or as meaning the smoke of the fire; or a wall thereof.

[A house, or tent,] having a سُرَادِق: (Ksh in xviii. 28, and PS:) or having the whole of its upper part, and of its lower part, مَشْدُود [accord. to the TK here meaning curtained, which seems to be the only apposite rendering, but I know not any authority for it], (Lth, JK, O, K, TA,) or مَسْدُود [i. e. closed, &c.]. (So in the CK.)

سل

1 سَلَّ الشَّىٌءَ, (S, M, Mgh,) aor. ـُ (S, M,) inf. n. سَلٌّ; (S, M, Mgh, K;) and ↓ استلّهُ, (M,) inf. n. اِسْتِلَالٌ; (K; [in the CK, الِاسْلال is put in the place of الِاسْتِلَال;]) He drew the thing out or forth from another thing: (Jel in xxiii. 12:) or he pulled out the thing, or drew it forth, gently: (M, K: *) or he drew, or pulled, the thing out, or forth, as a sword from its scabbard, and a hair from dough. (Mgh.) You say, سَلَّ السَّيْفَ, (S, Msb,) aor. and inf. n. as above; (Msb;) and ↓ استلّهُ, both signifying the same; (S;) [i. e. He drew the sword;] as also ↓ اسلّهُ, inf. n. إِسْلَالٌ. (TA.) In the saying of El-Farezdak, غَدَاةَ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ كَانَّ سُيُوفَكُمْ

↓ ذَآنِينُ فِى أَعْنَاقِكُمْ لَمْ تُسَلْسَلِ [In the morning when ye turned back, as though your swords were ذآنين (pl. of ذُؤْنُونٌ a species of fungus) upon your necks, (for the sword was hung upon the shoulder, not by a waist-belt,) not drawn forth], he has separated the doubled letter: thus the verse is related by IAar: but by Th, ↓ لَمْ تَسَلَّلِ [for تَتَنَسَلَّلِ]. (M.) It is said in a trad., لَأَسُلَّنَّكَ مِنْهُمْ كَمَا تُسَلُّ الشَّعْرَةُ مِنَ العَجِينِ [I will assuredly draw thee forth from them like as the single hair is drawn forth from dough]. (TA.) And in another trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ أْسْلُلْ سَخِيمَةَ قَلْبِى (tropical:) [O God, draw forth the rancour of my heart]: and hence the saying الهَدَايَا تَسُلُّ السَّخَائِمَ وَتَحُلُّ الشَّكَائِمَ (tropical:) [Presents draw away feelings of rancour, and loose, or melt, resistances, or incompliances]. (TA.) And سُلَّ, said of a colt, means He was drawn forth a سَلِيل [q. v.]. (M, TA.) b2: Also He took the thing. (Msb.) Hence one says, تُسَلُّ المَيِّتُ مِنْ قِبَلِ رَأْسِهِ إِلَى القَبْرِ, i. e. [The dead body] is taken [head-foremost to the grave]: (Msb:) [or is drawn forth &c.: for] it is said of the Apostle of God, سُلَّ مِنْ قِبَل رَأْسِهِ, meaning He was drawn forth [&c.] from the bier. (Mgh.) b3: Also, aor. and inf. n. as above, He stole the thing: (Msb, TA:) or he stole it covertly, secretly, or clandestinely; (TA;) and so ↓ اسلّهُ. (TK. [But see 4, below, where اسلّ meaning “ he stole ” is mentioned only as intrans.]) Yousay, سَلَّ البَعِيرَ جَوْفِ اللَّيْلِ He drew away the camel from among the other camels in the middle of the night: and in like manner you say of other things. (TA.) A2: سَلَّ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. سَلٌّ, (TK,) said of a man; (TA;) or سَلَّتْ, aor. ـَ [whence it would seem that the sec. Pers\. of the pret. is سَلِلْتَ, and the inf. n. سَلَلٌ,] said of a sheep or goat, شاة; (M;) He, or it, lost his, or its, teeth: (M, K:) on the authority of Lh. (M.) A3: سُلَّ, (M, Msb, K,) in the pass. form, (Msb,) with damm, (K,) He was, or became, affected with the disease termed سِلّ [q. v.]. (M, Msb, K.) 4 أَسْلَ3َ see 1, second sentence. b2: اسلّ, (ISk, S, M, Mgh,) inf. n. إِسْلَالٌ, (ISk, S, K,) also signifies He stole: (ISk, S, Mgh:) or he stole covertly, secretly, or clandestinely. (M, K.) See also 1, in the latter half of the paragraph. You say, اسلّ مِنَ المَغْنَمِ He stole of the spoil. (Mgh.) b3: إِسْلَالٌ signifies also An open raid or predatory incursion. (TA.) b4: And اسلّ He aided another to steal, or to steal covertly, secretly, or clandestinely. (TA.) b5: [See also إِسْلَالٌ below. Accord. to Freytag, اسلّ signifies He received a bribe: but this requires consideration: he gives no authority but the K, which does not justify this explanation.]

A2: اسلّهُ He (God) caused him to be affected with the disease termed سِلّ [q. v.]. (S, M, Msb, K.) 5 تسلّل: see 7: and see also 1, in the former half of the paragraph. b2: Also i. q. اِضْطَرَبَ [It was, or became, in a state of commotion, agitation, &c.]; said of a thing; as though it were imagined to be repeatedly drawn forth. (Er-Rághib, TA.) 7 انسلّ It (a thing) became pulled out, or drawn forth, gently; (M;) it became drawn, or pulled out or forth, as a sword from its scabbard, and a hair from dough. (Mgh.) You say, انسلّ السَّيْفُ مِنَ الغَمْدِ The sword [became drawn from the scabbard: or] slipped out from the scabbard. (TA.) And انسلّ قِيَادُالفَرَسِ مِنْ يَدِهِ [The leading-rope of the horse slipped out or] came forth [from his hand]. (Mgh.) b2: And [hence], as also ↓ تسلّل, (S, M, K,) He slipped away, or stole away; i. e., went away covertly, secretly, or clandestinely: (M, K:) or he went forth, مِنْ بَيْنِهِمْ [from among them]. (S.) And اِنْسَلَلْتُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ I went away, and went forth, deliberately, or leisurely, and by degrees, from before him. (TA.) Sb says that اِنْسَلَلْتُ [used in this or a similar sense] is not a quasi-pass. verb; but is only like [a verb of the measure] فَعَلْتُ; like as اِفْتَقَرَ is like ضَعُفَ. (M.)
