مدح

1 مَدَحَهُ, (S, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. مَدْحٌ (S, K) and مِدْحَةٌ, (K,) as some say, but correctly this latter is a simple subst.; (TA;) and ↓ امتدحهُ; (S, K;) and ↓ مدّحهُ, (K,) inf. n. تَمْدِيح; (TA;) [but this, and that next preceding it, have an intensive signification, as is shown by the explanation of their pass. part. ns., which see below;] and ↓ تمدّحهُ; (K:) [which seems to imply some degree of effort in the agent;] He praised, eulogized, or commended, him; spoke well of him; mentioned him with approbation: (S, K:) or he described him as characterized by goodliness, beauty, or elegance; opposite of ذَمَّهُ: and he enumerated his generous qualities or actions; opposite of هَجَاهُ: (MF:) or he praised him for his goodly qualities, whether natural or depending upon his own will; and hence it is of more common application than حَمَدَهُ: accord. to El-Khateeb El-Tebreezee, it is from the phrase تَمَدَّحَتِ الأَرْضُ “ the land became ample, or spacious; ” whence it would seem to signify he amplified his phrase: accord. to Kh, مَدَحَهُ relates to an absent person; and مَدَهَهُ, to one who is present: and accord. to EsSarakustee, مَدْهٌ is descriptive of the state, or condition, and external appearance or form; and of nothing beside. (Msb.) 2 مَدَّحَ see 1.3 مادحهُ He praised, eulogized, or commended, him reciprocally.

(A.) b5: See 1. b6: تَمَدَّحَتِ الخَاصِرَةُ, (S, K,) and ↓ امتدحت, and ↓ إِمَّدَحَت [originally إِنْمدَحَت], (K,) The hypochondre, or flank, became distended, expanded, or dilated, (S, K,) by reason of satiety; like تندّحت: occurring in this sense in a verse of Er-Rá'ee, as some relate it; as others relate it, it is تمذّحت. (S.) b7: بَطْنُهُ ↓ امدحّ His belly became wide, or distended; a dial. form of اندحّ. (S.) This, says F, is a mistake; but it is no mistake; and he has perverted the words of J, which are confirmed by Sgh and the author of the L and many others. (MF.) b8: Also تمدّحت الأَرْضُ, and امتدحت, and ↓ امّدحت (K) and ↓ انمدحت, (TA,) The land became ample, or spacious. (K.) The first and second are formed by substitution of م for ن from تندحت and انتدّحت. (L.) 6 تمادحوا They praised, eulogized, or commended, one another. (A.) التَّمَادُحُ التَّذَابُحُ Praising one another is slaughtering one another. (S, art. ذبح, A.) 7 إِنْمَدَحَ 8, and 9. See 5 and 1.

(K, A.) مَدِيحٌ: see مِدْحَةٌ.

مَدَّاحٌ [One who praises, &c., much, or often; a habitual praiser, &c.] (TA in art. حثو; &c. See an ex. voce حَثَا.) مَادِحٌ Praising, eulogizing, or commending; or a praiser, eulogizer, or commender: pl. مَدَّحٌ. (TA.) مَمَادِحُ Praiseworthy, commendable, or good, qualities or dispositions, &c.; contr of مَقَابِحُ. (L, art. قبح.) أُمْدُوحَةٌ: see مِدْحَةٌ.

(L.) [It often signifies He stroked a thing with his hand; as, for instance, the Black Stone of the Kaabeh; see below.] b2: مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ المَآءِ; and جَبِينَهُ الرَّشَحِ; He wiped his head with his hand to remove the water that was upon it; and his forehead to remove the sweat. (L.) b3: مَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ (S) He wiped with his hand, or passed his hand closely over, his head, or a part thereof, without making any water to flow upon it: so in the Kur, v. 8; where it is said, فَاغْسِلُوا وُجُوهَكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ إِلَى الْمَرَافِقِ وَامْسَحُوا بِرُؤُوسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ

إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ: here أَرْجُلَكُمْ is in the acc. case as an adjunct to ايديكم; [i.e., as a third objective complement to the verb اغسلوا; not as an adjunct to رؤوسكم;] but some read أَرْجُلِكُمْ, putting it in the gen. case because of its proximity to رؤوسكم; (Jel;) [in like manner as خَرِبٍ is put in the gen. case in the phrase هٰذَا جُحْرُ ضَبٍّ خَرِبٍ, an ex. given by many of the grammarians, showing that this is allowable in prose,] notwithstanding that it is said, by Aboo-Is-hák the grammarian, that the putting a noun in the gen. case because of its proximity to a preceding noun in that case is not allowable except in poetry, when necessity requires it: (L:) the head, which is wiped, is mentioned between the arms and the feet, which are washed, to show the order which is to be observed in the purification. (Jel.) But مَسَحَ signifies both he wiped with the hand, and also he washed: so says IAth: (L:) and Az and IKt say the like: (Msb:) you say مَسَحْتُ يَدَىَّ بالمَآءِ, meaning I washed my hands with water. (Az, Msb.) b4: مَسَحَ شَيْئًا بِالمَآءِ He wiped a thing with his hand wetted with water; passed his hand, wetted with water, over a thing. (Msb.) b5: مَسَحَ البَيْت He compassed the House [of God, i.e. the Kaabeh: because he who does so passes his hand over the corner in which is the Black Stone].

(TA.) b15: مَسَحَهُمْ (tropical:) He passed lightly by them, or brushed by them, without remaining by them. (L.) b16: مَسِحَ, [aor. ـَ inf. n. مَسَحٌ, The inner sides of his (a man's, S) thighs rubbed together, (S, L, K,) so as to become sore and chapped: (L:) or he had the inner side of his knee inflamed by the roughness of his garment.

(TA.) b18: مَسَحَتِ الإِبِلُ يَوْمَهَا (tropical:) The camels journeyed all the day. (S.) مَسَحَتِ الإِبِلُ الأَرْضَ يَوْمَهَا دَأْبًا (tropical:) The camels journeyed all the day laboriously. (TA.)

Agreeably with both these significations مَسْحًا is rendered in the Kur, xxxviii. 32: some say that what is here meant is the wiping with the hand wetted with water: accord. to IAth, Solomon is here said to have smitten the necks and hock-tendons of the horses. (L.) [See art. طفق.] مَسَحَهُ بِالسَّيْفِ He smote him with the sword: (L:) and he cut him with the sword: (S, L:) or مَسَحَهُ signifies he struck him gently with a staff, or stick, and with a sword.

1 مَخَرَتِ السَّفِينَةُ, (S, A, K,) or مخرت السفينة المَآءَ, (TA,) aor. ـَ (S, K) and مَخُرَ, (S, TA,) inf. n. مَخْرٌ and مُخُورٌ, (S, K,) The ship clave the water with its stem, and ran: (AHeyth:) or clave the water with a noise: (A:) or ran, cleaving the water with a noise: (S:) or ran: or faced the wind in her course: (K:) or advanced and retired. (TA.) And مَخَرَ السَّابِحُ The swimmer clave the water with his arms (K, TA.) in swimming. (TA.) The primary signification of مَخْرٌ is the act of cleaving: and it also signifies the making a noise or sound. (TA.) 5 تمخّر الرِّيحَ He (a horse) faced the wind, (K,) or turned his nose towards the wind, (TA,) for the sake of greater ease to himself; as also ↓ امتخرها, and ↓ استمخرها. (K.) It is mostly said of the camel: you say, تمخّرت الإِبِلُ الرِّيحَ The camels faced the wind, and snuffed it. (TA.) And, met., of a man; as in the following ex.: خَرَجْتُ أَتَمَخَّرُ الرِّيحَ, app. meaning, (tropical:) I went forth to snuff the wind. (TA.) You also say, الرِّيحَ ↓ إِسْتَمْخَرْتُ (assumed tropical:) I directed my nose towards the wind. (S, A.) And it is said in a trad., إِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمُ البَوْلَ فَلْيَتَمَخَّرِ الرِّيحَ (S, K) (assumed tropical:) When any one of you desires to make water, let him see whence the wind blows, and not face it, that it may not drive back the urine against him, (S, TA,) and cause it to sprinkle him; but let him turn his back to the wind. (TA.) And again, (K,) in a trad. of Surákah, as related by ISh, on the same subject, (TA,) ↓ إِسْتَمْخِرُوا الرِّيحَ, i.e., Turn ye your backs to the wind, (K,) in making water; (TA;) as though, (كَأَنَّهُ: so in the copies of the K; but in the Nh of IAth, لِأَنَّهُ, for, TA) when one turns his back to it, he (as it were, TA) cleaves it with his back, so that it passes on his right and left: for though تَمَخُّرٌ sometimes means the act of facing the wind, yet in this trad. it means the turning the back: (K:) but this is not properly its meaning; for the meaning is, the looking to see whence the wind blows: then the man is to turn his back. (TA.) You say also تمخّرت الإِبِلُ الكَلَأَ The camels turned themselves towards the pasture. (L.) 8 إِمْتَخَرَ see 5, throughout.10 إِسْتَمْخَرَ see 5, throughout.

An arabicized word, from [the Persian] مَيْخُورْ, or مَىْ خُورْ, or مَيْخَوارْ, (as in different copies of the K,) meaning “ a winedrinker ” : so that as a name of the place, it is tropical: (TA:) or Arabic, from مَخَرَتِ السَّفِينَةُ, (K,) meaning “ the ship advanced and retired ”; (TA;) because of men's frequenting it, going to and fro: (K:) in which case also it is tropical. (TA.) Pl مَوَاخِيرُ (A, K) and مَوَاخِرُ. (K.) The former pl. occurs in a trad. (TA.)

The people of Egypt, (S,) or of Hejer, (M,) or of both, (TA,) write in their contracts, (S, M, *) إِشْتَرَى
