تلع

تَلْعَةٌ High, or elevated, land or ground: (AO, S, K:) and low, or depressed, land or ground: (AO, S, Msb, K:) thus bearing two contr. significations, (S, K,) accord. to AO: (S:) or it has not these significations, but means a water-course from the upper part of a valley to its lower part; therefore sometimes its upper part is described [by this name], and sometimes its lower part; (IAar, IB, TA:) or it has the second of the significations above, (Msb, K,) and the first, (K,) and signifies also a water-course (Msb, K) from the upper part of a valley: (Msb:) and also, (K,) or, accord. to IDrd, (TA,) the wide part of the mouth of a valley: and a high, or an elevated, piece of land or ground: (IDrd, K:) sometimes, says IDrd, it has this last application; but the former is the original signification: (TA:) it is also said to signify high, or elevated, and rugged, land or ground, in which the torrent goes to and fro, and from which it then pours to another تلعة, lower than it; and which is fertile in plants, or herbage: (L, TA:) or a water-course from the higher part of the ground to the bottom of a valley: (AA, S:) pl. تِلَاعٌ (AA, S, Msb, K) and تَلَعَاتٌ: (K:) and, (K,) or, accord. to Sh, (TA,) تِلَاعٌ signifies water-course flowing from acclivities and the [eminences termed] نِجَاف and the mountains, until they pour into the valley: (Sh, K:) to which Sh adds, the تلعة of the mountain being formed by the water's coming and furrowing and excavating it until it escapes from it: (TA:) but تلاع are nowhere except [the word إِلّاَ has been dropped in the CK] in the صَحَارَى

[or deserts]; (Sh, K;) and sometimes a تلعة comes from a distance of five leagues (فَرَاسِخ) to the valley; and when it flows from the mountains, and falls into the صحارى [or deserts], it excavates in them what resembles a moat: when it becomes so large as to be like the half, or two thirds, of the valley, it is termed مَيْثَآءُ: (Sh, TA:) تَلْعَةٌ is also said to be like رحبة [i. e. رَحَبَةٌ or رَحْبَةٌ, app. as meaning the part of a valley in which its water flows into it from its two sides]; and the pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] is said to be تَلْعٌ. (TA.) It is said in a trad., فَيَجِىْءُ مَطَرٌ لَا يَمْتَنِعُ مِنْهُ ذَنَبُ تَلْعَةٍ [And a rain will come, in consequence of which the end of a water-course will not be impeded]: meaning to denote its abundance, and that no place will be exempt from it. (TA.) And in a prov., فُلَانٌ لَا يَمْنَعُ ذَنَبَ تَلْعَةٍ [Such a one will not impede the end of a water-course]: (K, * TA:) applied to the abject and contemptible. (K.) And in another, (ISh,) لَا أَثِقُ بِسَيْلِ تَلْعَتكَ [I do not, or will not, trust in the flow of thy water-course]: applied to him in whom one does not trust: (ISh, K:) i. e. I do not, or will not, trust in what thou sayest, and what thou adducest: characterizing the person as a liar. (ISh.) and in another, (IAar,) مَا أَخَافُ إِلَّا مِنْ سَيْلِ تَلْعَتِى

[I fear not save from the flow of my water-course]: i. e., from the sons of my uncle, and my relations: (IAar, K:) for he who descends the water-course is in danger: if the torrent come, it sweeps him away. (IAar.)

(Msb.) b5: ثُغِرَ also signifies He had his mouth bruised; and so ↓ أُثْغِرَ. (K.) A2: ثَغَرَ الثُّلْمَةَ, aor. ـَ He stopped up, or obstructed, the gap, or breach: thus the verb bears two contr. significations. (K.)

(Msb.) b2: See also 1, in five places.

ثَغْرٌ The front teeth; (S, A, K;) syn. مَبْسِمٌ; (Msb;) described by a poet as eight in number, four upper and four lower: (TA:) afterwards applied to the central incisors: (Msb:) or all the teeth (TA) while they remain in their places of growth, (K, TA,) before they fall out: (TA:) or the teeth, (K, TA,) all of them, whether in their places of growth or not: (TA:) or the mouth: (K:) pl. ثُغُورٌ.

(Msb.) You say, فُلَانٌ يَسُدُّ الثَّغْرَ (tropical:) [Such a one stops up, or obstructs, the frontieraccess of the country by his bravery]. (A.) b4: See also ثُغْرَةٌ, in two places. b5: أَمْسُوا ثُغُورًا (tropical:) They became dispersed, or scattered, (JK, A, K,) and lost, or in a state of perdition: (A, K:) sing. ثَغْرٌ.

(TA.) b3: A tract, or quarter, of the earth, or of land; (JK, K;) as also ↓ ثَغْرٌ. (TA.) You say, مَا بِتِلْكَ الثُّغْرَةِ مِثْلُهُ There is not, in that tract, or quarter, of the earth, his, or its, like. (TA.) b4: A plain, level, or even, road; (K;) as also ↓ ثَغْرٌ: (TA:) or any road that people tread, or pass along, with ease; because they furrow its surface: (T, TA:) pl. as above. (A.) [Hence,] ثُغَرُ المَسْجِدِ The ways leading to the mosque: or ثُغْرَةُ المَسْجِدِ means the upper part of the mosque [app. next to the kibleh]. (TA.) And هُوَيَخْتَرِقُ ثُغَرَ المَجْدِ (tropical:) [He travels] the ways of glory. (A.) ثُغْرُورٌ: see ثَغْرٌ.

ثَكُولٌ: see ثَاكِلٌ. b2: فَلَاةٌ ثَكُولٌ (tropical:) A desert in which the traveller becomes lost. (K, TA.) ثَاكِلٌ, applied to a man, Bereft of a child, or of a friend, or person beloved; as also ↓ ثَكْلَانُ or ثَكْلَانٌ [with or without tenween, as is shown by the two forms of the fem. mentioned in what follows, but generally without]: (K:) and applied to a woman; (S, Msb, K;) and sometimes ثَاكِلَةٌ; (Msb;) as also ثَكْلَى (S, Msb, K) and ثَكْلَانَةٌ, (IAar, K,) which is rare, (K,) and ↓ ثَكُولٌ; (S, K;) meaning bereft of her child [by death]; (S, Msb;) pl.

These two words are mentioned here by J and Sgh, and F has followed them; but they should be mentioned among words whose first radical letter is hemzeh, for the أ is a radical, substituted for ع.

1 ثَمَنَهُمْ, aor. ـُ (S, M, Mgh, &c.,) inf. n. ثَمْنٌ, (M,) He took the eighth of their goods, or property. (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K.) b2: And, aor. ـِ He was, or became, the eighth of them: (S, Mgh, Msb, K:) or he made them, with himself, eight. (S in art. ثلث.) And He made them, they being seventy-nine, to be eighty. (A'Obeyd, S in art. ثلث.) A2: ثَمُنَ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. ثَمَانَةٌ, It (a commodity) was, or became, precious, costly, of high price; and ↓ اثمن [signifies the same; or] it had a price, or value. (TA. [See ثَمِينٌ.]) 2 ثمّنهُ He made it eight: or called it eight. (Esh-Sheybánee, and K in art. وحد.) b2: [He made it octangular.] b3: ثمّن لِامْرَأَتِهِ, or عِنْدَهَا, He remained eight nights with his wife: and in like manner the verb is used in relation to any saying or action. (TA in art. سبع.) A2: Also, (T, TA,) inf. n. تَثْمِينٌ, (TA,) He collected it together. (T, TA.) A3: Also, inf. n. as above, (Msb, TA,) He made known, or notified, [or he set or assigned it,] its price; i. e., the price of a commodity; like قَوَّمَهُ: (TA:) or he assigned it a price by conjecture: (Msb:) and ↓ اثمنهُ he named a price for it. (TA.) 4 اثمن القَوْمُ The party of men became eight: (S, K:) and also the party of men became eighty. (M and L in art. ثلث.) b2: أَثْمَنَتْ She brought forth her eighth offspring. (TA in art. بكر.) b3: اثمن said of a man, He was, or became, one whose camels came to water ↓ ثِمْنًا, (S, K,) i. e., on the eighth night [after the next preceding watering]. (K.) A2: اثمن said of a commodity: see 1.

A3: اثمنهُ He sold it for a price. (Msb.) b2: See also 2. b3: اثمن الرَّجُلَ مَتَاعَهُ, (T, S,) or سِلْعَتَهُ, (K,) and اثمن لَهُ, (T, S, K,) [i. e. اثمن له متاعه, or سلعته,] signify the same, (T, S, *) He gave the man the price of his commodity: (K:) or اثمن الرَّجُلَ بِمَتَاعِهِ, and اثمن لَهُ مَتَاعَهُ, he named to the man a price for his commodity, and assigned it to it, or to him. (Mgh.) ثُمْنٌ: see ثُمُنٌ.

A2: One of the periods between two drinkings, or waterings, of camels: (S:) [or the end of one of those periods; namely, the night of coming to water which is] the eighth night of a period between two drinkings, or waterings, of camels, (K,) [counting the night of the next preceding drinking, or watering, as the first: see رِبْعٌ and خِمْسٌ &c.] See also 4.

ثَمَنٌ The price of a thing; i. e. the thing that the seller receives in return for the thing sold, whether money or a commodity; (Er-Rághib, TA;) the ثَمَن of a thing sold: (S:) and also (Er-Rághib, TA) a compensation, or substitute, (Mgh, Msb, Er-Rághib, TA,) whatever it be, for a thing, (Er-Rághib, TA,) i. e., for a thing that is sold; but in the sense commonly known, such as it is incumbent upon one to pay, of pieces of silver, and of gold [or other money]; not commodities and the like: (Mgh:) or the value, or worth, of a thing; (K;) its قِيمَة: (T:) or the estimated value, or worth, of a thing, by mutual consent, even though it be really excessive or deficient; whereas the قِيمَة is its real value or worth, its equivalent: (MF:) pl. أَثْمَانٌ (T, Mgh, Msb, K) and أَثْمُنٌ, (S, Msb, K,) the latter used only as a pl. of pauc., (Msb,) and [so] أَثْمِنَةٌ. (CK: not in the TA.) The saying in the Kur [ii. 38 and v. 48], وَلَا تَشْتَرُوا بِآيَاتِى ثَمَنًا قَلِيلًا is metaphorical, meaning (tropical:) And take ye not in exchange for my signs a small substitute: [i. e. purchase not in exchange for belief in my word the happiness, or enjoyments, of the present life.] (Mgh.) With respect to this saying, Fr remarks, when ثَمَنًا occurs in the Kur, with بِ prefixed to the name of the thing sold or bought, in most cases it relates to two things whereof neither is a ثمن in the sense commonly known, i. e., such as pieces of gold and of silver: and such is the case when you say, اِشْتَرَيْتُ ثَوْبًا بِكِسَآءٍ [I purchased a garment with a كساء, q. v.]: either of these may be termed a ثمن for the other: but in speaking of pieces of silver and of gold, you prefix the ب to the ثمن [only]; as is done in [the chapter of] Yoosuf, [i. e. ch. xii., v. 20, where it is said,] وَشَرَوْهُ بِثَمَنٍ بَخْسٍ دَرَاهِمَ مَعْدُودَةٍ

[And they sold him for a deficient, or an insufficient, price: for pieces of silver not many, so as to require their being weighed, but few, and therefore counted]: for pieces of silver are always a ثمن: and when you purchase pieces of silver and of gold with the like, you prefix the ب to whichever of the two you will, because each of them in this case is a purchase and a price. (T.) ثُمُنٌ (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ ثُمْنٌ (M, Msb, K) An eighth; an eighth part or portion; as also ↓ ثَمِينٌ; (S, M, * Mgh, Msb, K;) agreeably with a general rule applying to fractions, accord. to some; (M, K;) but ثَلِيثٌ was ignored by Az (T and S in art. ثلث) and by others, (TA,) and so was خَمِيسٌ: (S in art. ثلث:) pl. أَثْمَانٌ. (M, K.) ثَمَانٍ and ثَمَانٌ: see ثَمَانِيَةٌ.

ثَمِينٌ: see ثُمُنٌ.

A2: Also High-priced; or of high value; (S, TA;) and ↓ مُثْمِنٌ [signifies the same; or] having a price, or value: (TA:) but accord. to the Durrat el-Ghowwás, the assertion that the former has the meaning here assigned to it is a mistake; for it means [only] the same as ثُمُنٌ; and a thing that has a price, or value, is termed مثمن [app. مُثْمِنٌ, as above; but perhaps مُثْمَنٌ, q. v.]. (Har p. 42.) ثَمَانِيَةٌ a noun of number, well known; [meaning Eight;] as also ↓ ثَمَانٍ, (M, TA,) which is like يَمَانٍ, (M, K,) in form: (M:) the former is the masc. form: the latter, the fem.: (Msb:) this is not a rel. n. [though likened above to يَمَانٍ]: (M, K:) or it is originally a rel. n. from الثُّمُنُ, because it is the part, or portion, that makes seven to be eight, so that it is its eighth: they make the first letter to be pronounced with fet-h, because they make changes [in some other cases] in the rel. n., (S, K,) as when they say سُهْلِىٌّ and دُهْرِىٌّ, [which are rel. ns. of سَهْلٌ and دَهْرٌ,] (S,) and they suppress one of the two ى which are characteristic of the rel. n., and compensate it by the insertion of ا, as they do in the rel. n. of اليَمَنُ [when they say يَمَانٍ, originally يَمَانِىٌ, for يَمَنِىٌّ]: (S, K: [and the like is said in the Mgh:]) El-Fárisee says that the ا of ثَمَانٍ is the characteristic of the rel. n., because this word is not a broken pl. like صَحَارٍ; and IF assents to this, and says that were it not so, the ة would be inseparable, as it is in عَبَاقِيَةٌ &c. (M.) You say ثَمَانِيَةُ رِجَالٍ [Eight men], (T, S, Mgh,) and ثَمَانِيَةُ أَيَّامٍ [eight days]. (Msb.) And when ثمان is prefixed to another noun, its ى is retained, like the ى in القَاضِى: (S, Msb, K:) and it is decl. in the same manner as words of the class to which this last belongs: (Msb:) you say ثَمَانِى نِسْوَةٍ

[Eight women], (T, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and ثَمَانِى

مِائَةٍ [eight hundred], (S, Msb, K,) [in the nom. and gen. cases;] and رَأَيْتُ ثَمَانِىَ نِسْوَةٍ [I saw eight women], pronouncing the fet-hah [at the end, in this case]. (Msb.) When it is with tenween, the ى is dropped in the nom. and gen. cases, but it is retained in the accus. case: (S, K:) [i. e.,] when the fem. form is not prefixed to another noun, you say, عِنْدِى مِنَ النِّسَآءِ ثَمَانٍ

[I have with me, of women, eight], and مَرَرْتُ مِنْهُنَّ بِثَمَانٍ [I passed by, of them, eight], and رَأَيْتُ ثَمَانِيًا [I saw eight]. (Msb.) It sometimes occurs, in poetry, indecl.: (S, M:) this is because it is fancied to be a pl.; (S;) or because it is likened, as to the letter, but not as to the meaning, to جَوَارِىَ. (M.) The people of El-Hijáz pronounce the masc. and the fem. with nasb in every case, in phrases like أَتَوْنِى ثَلَاثَتَهُمْ and أَتَيْنَنِى ثَلَاثَهُنَّ; and so on to ten [inclusive]. (S voce ثَلَاثَةٌ, q. v.) Th mentions ↓ ثَمَانٌ; (TA;) and some instances of its occurrence are cited; but As disallows it. (T, Mgh, TA.) كِسَآءٌ ذُو ثَمَانٍ means A [garment of the kind called] كساء

made of eight fleeces. (T.) تُقْبِلُ بِأَرْبَعٍ وَتُدْبِرُ بِثَمَانٍ [She advances with four and goes back with eight] is a saying of one of the مُخَنَّثُون of El-Medeeneh; meaning, with four creases (عُكَن) of the belly, and with eight extremities thereof; each crease having two extremities, towards the two sides of the woman spoken of. (Mgh in art. هيت.) The saying الثَّوْبُ سَبْعٌ فِى ثَمَانٍ should properly be فِى ثَمَانِيَةٍ, (S,) which means, The garment, or piece of cloth, is seven cubits in length by eight spans in breadth; (Msb;) because the length is measured by the ذِرَاع, which is fem., and the breadth by the شِبْر, which is masc.; but they use the fem. when they do not mention things; as when they say, صُمْنَا مِنَ الشَّهْرِ خَمْسًا [We fasted, of the month, five], though meaning days: (S:) or because ذراع is fem. in most instances, and شبر is masc. (Msb.) [But it is said that when ثمانية means the things numbered, not the amount of the number, it is imperfectly decl., being regarded as a proper name: thus] you say, تِسْعَةُ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ ثَمَانِيَةَ [Nine things are more than eight things]. (TA voce تِسْعَةٌ, q. v.) [See also سِتَّةٌ.] b2: When you make it a compound [with the number ten], you say, عِنْدَى ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ رَجُلًا [I have with me eighteen men]: and in the case of the fem., you may either make the ى to be with fet-h or make it quiescent, saying, عِنْدِى

مِنَ النِّسَآءِ ثَمَانِىَ عَشْرَةَ امْرَأَةً or ثَمَانِىْعَشْرَةَ [I have with me, of women, eighteen women]; but the former is the more chaste; and in one dial., the ى is elided, on the condition of [saying ثَمَانَ عَشْرَةَ,] making the ن to be with fet-h; (Msb;) or in this case you say ثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ, with kesr. (T.) A poet says, (T, S,) namely, El-Aashà, (K,) فَلَأَشْرَبَنَّ ثَمَانِيًا وَثَمَانِيًا وَثَمَانِ عَشْرَةَ وَاثْنَتَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعَا [And I will assuredly drink eight cups of wine, (a pl. of كَأْس, which is fem., being understood,) and eight more, and eighteen, and two, and four]: (T, S, K: but in the S and K, وَلَقَدْ شَرِبْتُ; and in the K, and in one copy of the S, وَثَمَانَ:) he should properly have said ثَمَانِىَ عَشْرَةَ or ثَمَانِىْ عَشْرَةَ, (accord. to different copies of the T and S and K,) but he elides the ى after the dial. of him who says طِوَالُ الأَيْدِ [for الأَيْدِى], (S, K,) and he makes the ن to be with kesr in order to indicate the ى. (T.) b3: The dim. of ثَمَانِيَةٌ may be formed either by suppressing the ا, which is the preferable way, so that you say ↓ ثُمَيْنِيَةٌ, or by suppressing the ى, saying ↓ ثُمَيِّنَةٌ, changing the ا into ى and incorporating into it the ى that is the characteristic of the dim.; and you may compensate for both [of these suppressed letters by saying ↓ ثُمَيْنِيَّةٌ and ↓ ثُمَيِّينَةٌ]. (S.) b4: الثَّمَانِى is also the name of A certain plant. (As, T, K.) ثَمَانُونَ a well-known noun of number; [meaning Eighty;] sometimes used as an epithet: ElAashà says, لَئِنْ كُنْتَ فِى جُبٍّ ثَمَانِينَ قَامَةً

وَرُقِّيتَ أَسْبَابَ السِّمَآءِ بِسُلَّمِ [Assuredly if thou wert in a well eighty fathoms deep, and wert made to ascend the tracts of heaven by a ladder]: he uses it thus as meaning deep. (TA. [But in this verse, as cited in the present art in the TA, أَبْوَابَ is put in the place of اسباب, which is the reading commonly known, and given in the S and TA in art. سب, and in the TA in art رقى-]) أَحْمَقُ مِنْ صَاحَبِ ضَأْنٍ ثَمَانِينَ [More stupid than an owner of eighty sheep], (S, K,) or مِنْ رَاعِى ضَأْنٍ ثَمَانِينَ [than a pastor of eighty sheep], as in some of the copies of the S, or, as in the Proverbs of Aboo-'Obeyd, مِنْ طَالِبِ ضَأْنٍ

ثَمَانِينَ [than a demander of eighty sheep], (TA,) is a saying that originated from the fact that an Arab of the desert announced to Kisrà an event that rejoiced him, whereupon he said, “Ask of me what thou wilt; ” and he asked of him eighty sheep. (S, K.) b2: [It also signifies Eightieth.]

ثُمَيْنِيَةٌ and ثُمَيِّنَةٌ and ثُمَيْنِيَّةٌ and ثُمَيَّينَةٌ: see ثَمَانِيَةٌ, last sentence but one.

ثَامِنٌ [Eighth: fem. with ة]. (S, K, &c.) b2: [ثَامِنَ عَشَرَ and ثَامِنَةَ عَشْرَةَ, the former masc. and the latter fem., meaning Eighteenth, are subject to the same rules as ثَالِثَ عَشَرَ and its fem., explained in art. ثلث, q. v.] b3: إِبِلٌ ثَوَامِنُ, [the latter word pl. of ثَامِنَةٌ,] Camels that come to water on the eighth night [after the next preceding watering]: from ثِمْنٌ. (TA.) أَثْمَنُ Of more [and of most] price or value. (S.) مُثْمَنٌ Sold for a price: (Msb:) or having a price named for it, and assigned to it. (Mgh.) [See also ثَمِينٌ.]

(T, TA.) 3 ظالفهُ: see 1, former half: it is a mistake, in the K, for اظلفهُ. (TA.) 4 اظلف, said of a man, (IAar, T, O,) or of a company of men, (M,) He, or they, became, or came to be, (IAar, T, M, O, K,) in, or upon, a hard place, (IAar, T, O,) or in, or upon, what is termed أُظْلُوفَة (M, K) and ظَلَف.

ظَلْفٌ, of ground, or land, Such as is rugged, that will not show any foot-mark; (M;) as also ↓ ظَلَفٌ: (S, * M:) or so ↓ ظَلِفَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ ظَلُفَةٌ and ↓ ظَلَفَةٌ: (K:) and ↓ ظَلَفٌ signifies ground such as horses like to run upon: (T:) or (i. e. the last) a place elevated above the water and the mud; and so ↓ ظَلِفٌ; (K;) this last thus expl. by Ibn-'Abbád: (O:) or this last and ↓ ظَلِفَةٌ, accord. to ISh, (TA,) or ↓ ظَلَفٌ and ↓ ظَلَفَةٌ, (so accord. to a copy of the T, in which the authority is not mentioned,) signify ground, or land, in which the foot-mark will not appear, and which is high and rugged: and accord. to Fr, ↓ ظَلِفٌ and ↓ ظَلِفَةٌ signify ground, or land, that will not show a foot-mark; as though it were prevented from doing so: (T, TA:) and ↓ ظِلْفٌ, (so in a copy of the T,) or ↓ ظَلِفٌ, (so in the TA,) accord. to Fr, signifies such as is soft, of ground, or land: but accord. to IAar, such as is hard, and does not show a foot-mark; in which is no softness, so as to be difficult to him who walks upon it; nor sand, so that the camels would have their feet burnt upon it; nor stones, so that they would be chafed, or abraded, in the soles of their feet, upon it: and it is also expl.

(AA, T, S, M, O, K.) الظُّلْفُ in Har p. 312, there said to be used as meaning Continence, and disdain of base actions, is app. a mistake for الظَّلْفُ, inf. n. of 1 in the phrase ظَلَفَ نَفْسَهُ.]

ظِلْفٌ The ظُفْر [meaning cloven hoof] of any ruminant (T, M) of the bovine kind and the like; (T;) [i. e.] it is an appertenance of the bovine kind and of the sheep and goat (S, O, Msb, K) and of the gazelle or antelope (S, O, K) and the like, (O, Msb, K,) which is to them like the ظُفْر to man, (Msb,) or like the قَدَم to us: (K:) one says the رِجْل and قَدَم of a man, and the حَافِر of a horse, and the خُفّ of a camel and of an ostrich, and the ظِلْف of a bovine animal and of a sheep or goat [and the like]: (ISk, T, TA:) pl. أَظْلَافٌ (S, M, O, Msb, K) and ظُلُوفٌ: (S, O, K:) and أَظْلَاف is applied, by 'Amr Ibn-Maadee-kerib, to the hoofs of horses, (S, M, O,) as is said by Lth and Az and IF, by poetic license, (O,) metaphorically: (S, O:) and by El-Akhtal, metaphorically, to the feet of men. (M, IB, TA.) [Its dual is used in the K, in explanations of the words شَعِرَةٌ and أَشْعَرُ, in the latter instance on the authority of Lh, as meaning The two halves of a cloven hoof.] And one says, مَا جَشِمْتُ إِلَيْكَ ظِلْفًا [app. meaning I have not had the trouble of bringing to thee so much as the hoof of a gazelle or the like]. (Az, TA in art. جشم, q. v.) And هُوَ يَأْكُلُهُ بِــضِرْسٍ وَيَطَؤُهُ بِظِلْفٍ

[He eats it with a lateral tooth, and treads it with a cloven hoof; app. meaning, vehemently]. (TA.) b2: It is sometimes used as meaning (tropical:) Cloven-hoofed animals. (TA.) One says, مَا لَهُ خُفٌّ وَلَا حَافِرٌ وَلَا ظِلْفٌ (tropical:) [He possesses not camels, nor horses or asses or mules, nor sheep or goats or other cloven-hoofed beasts]. (TA in art. خف.) b3: It also signifies [or implies] The making consecutive progressions in walking and in other actions, (T, K,) or, accord. to the L, in a thing. (TA.)

(M.) b4: Also A thing that is suitable to the requirements of a man, and of a beast: (M:) and an object of desire: (M, O, K:) and an object of want. (T, K.) One says, أَصَابَ فُلَانٌ ظِلْفَهُ Such a one attained what was suitable to his requirements, and what he desired: and sometimes one says the like of any beast that finds, or lights on, or meets with, that which he likes. (M.) وَجَدَتِ الدَّابَّةُ ظِلْفَهَا is a prov., (M, O,) applied to him who finds the means of attaining that which he seeks; (Meyd;) meaning [The beast found what was suitable to its requirements; or,] what withheld it [from other things] and prevented its desire [thereof]. (A, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov., ii. 807.]) And one says, وَجَدَتِ الشَّاةُ ظِلْفَهَا The sheep, or goat, found suitable pasturage, and therefore did not quit it: (K, TA:) a prov. mentioned by Fr; applied to him, of men and of beasts, that finds what is suitable to him.

And وَجَدَ ظِلْفَهُ He found what he loved, (O,) or what he desired, (K,) and what was suitable to him; (TA;) said of a man. (O.) And مَا وَجَدْتُ عِنْدَهُ ظِلْفِى I did not find with him the object of my want. (TA.) A2: See also ظَلْفٌ, near the middle of the paragraph. b2: [In some copies of the K, الظِّلْفُ is erroneously put for الظَّلَفُ as relating to the means of subsistence. And in the CK ظِلْفُهَا is erroneously put for ظَلِفُهَا as meaning ظَلِفُ النَّفْسِ.]

ظَلَفٌ [as an inf. n.: see 1, last quarter. b2: Also] Hardness, or difficulty, (S, O, K,) or coarseness, (M,) in the means of subsistence: (S, M, O, K:) thus the word is correctly written: not ظِلْف, as we find it written in [copies of] the K: [nor ظَلْف, as in the CK:] and ظَلَفُ العَيْشِ occurs in a trad., (O, TA,) meaning straitness, and hardness or difficulty, and coarseness, of the means of subsistence.

(S, TA.) A3: See also ظَلِفَةٌ.

الظُّلَفُ in Har p. 623, there said to mean The restraining the soul from its desire, or blamable inclination, is app. a mistranscription for الظَّلَفُ, inf. n. of ظَلِفَتِ النَّفْسُ.]

A2: Also A certain brand, or mark made with a hot iron, upon a camel; and so ↓ ظَلِفَةٌ. (O, K.) ظَلَفَةٌ: see ظَلْفٌ, in two places, near the beginning. b2: [Hence, perhaps,] one says, أَقَامَهُ اللّٰهُ, عَلَى الظَّلَفَاتِ, (TA, [there said to be مُحَرَّكَة,]) or الظلِفات, (so in a copy of the T, [i. e.

(assumed tropical:) The seven material substances; namely, the four elements, (fire, air, earth, and water,) and the three products composed of these (which are minerals, vegetables, and animals)]. (MF. [But in the copy of his work which I use, الاجساد is erroneously put for الجسام.]) فَالُوذٌ (T, S, M, O, L, K) and ↓ فَالُوذَقٌ, but, accord. to Yaakoob, not ↓ فَالُوذَجٌ, (S, O, L,) or this is the proper form, because the ه in the original Pers\. word is regularly changed into ج, (MF,) [the word being] arabicized, (T, S, O, L,) from the Pers\. (M, O, * L) بَالُودَه [or فَالُودَه or پَالُودَه], (O,) A kind of sweet food, (M, O, * L, K,) well known, (K,) prepared of the purest substance of wheat (لُبّ الحِنْطَة), (T, L,) or of starch, (TA in art. نشو,) [with water and honey:] pl. فَوَالِيذُ [of which see an ex. in the next paragraph].

(Msb.) b2: It (a vessel) became full: (Msb:) [or it overflowed: for you say,] فَاضَ النَّهْرُ بِمَائِهِ The river overflowed with its water: and فَاضَ الإِنَآءُ بِمَا فِيهِ The vessel overflowed with what was in it: (Msb:) and a poet says, شَكَوْتُ وَمَا الشَّكْوَى لِمِثْلِىَ عَادَةً

وَلٰكِنْ تَفِيضُ الكَأْسُ عِنْدَ امْتِلَائِهَا [I complained; and complaint is not a custom of the like of me; but the cup overflows on the occasion of its being full]. (A) You say also فَاضَتْ عَيْنُهُ, aor. as above, inf. n. فَيْضٌ, The eye flowed [with tears]. (TA.) And فَاصَ عَرَقًا, said of a man, [He sweated;] sweat appeared upon his body, on an occasion of grief. (IKtt) b3: (assumed tropical:) It (a thing) was, or became, much, abundant, many, or unmerous. (O, K.) You say, فَاضَ اللِّئَامُ (assumed tropical:) The mean became many: (S, O:) opposed to غَاضَ, q. v. (S and A in art. غيض.) And فَاضَ الخَيْرُ (tropical:) Good, or wealth, &c., became abundant, (A, Msb,) فِيهِمْ among them. (A.) b4: Aor. as above, (S,) inf. n. فَيْضٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) It (a piece of news, or a story,) spread abroad; (S, M, K;) as also ↓ استفاض; (S, M, A, Msb, K, TA;) it spread abroad among the people. (Msb and TA in explanation of the latter verb,) like water. (TA.) ↓ The latter is also said of a place, meaning (tropical:) It became wide, or ample. (A.) And you say, فَاضَ عَلَيْهِ الدِّرْعُ (tropical:) [The coat of mail spread over him; or covered him]. (A.) b5: Aor. as above, inf. n. فَيْضٌ and فُيُوضٌ, (tropical:) He (a man, S, O, K) died: (S, M, O, K:) and, (S, M, O, K,) in like manner, (S, O,) فَاضَتٌ نَفْسُهُ, (S, M, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) aor. as above, (M,) inf. n. فَيْضٌ, (M, Msb,) (tropical:) his soul departed, or went forth; (S, M, A, * Mgh, * O, Msb, K;) of the dial. of Temeem; (S, M, O;) on the authority of AO and Fr; and Az says the like; but As says that one should not say, فاض الرَّجُلُ, nor فاضت نفسه, for فاض is only said of tears and of water: (S, O:) to which is added in the O, but one says, فَاظَ, with ظ, [as is also said in the Mgh,] as meaning “ he died,” and not فاض, with ض, decidedly: (TA:) [see, however, the remarks of IB below:] or the more chaste expression is فاظ, with ظ, without the mention of the نفس; and some do not allow any other: (Msb:) but in the L we find as follows: IAar says. فاض الرجل and فاظ, meaning “ the man died: ” and Abu-l-Hasan says, فاظت نفسه, the verb relating to the نفس; and فاض الرجل and فاظ: but As says, I heard AA say that one should not say, فاظت نفسه, but فاظ, meaning “ he died; ” and not فاض, with ض, decidedly: IB, however, says that what IDrd has cited from As is different from that which J has ascribed to him; for IDrd cites the words of As thus: the Arabs says, فاظ الرجل, meaning “ the man died; ” but when they speak of the نفس, they say فاضت نفسه, with ض; and he quotes the ex.

فَفُقِئَتْ عَيْنٌ وَفَاضَتْ نَفْسُ [And an eye was put out, and a soul departed]: and he [IB] adds that this is what is commonly known to be the opinion of As: but J has committed and error; for As quotes from AA that one should not say, فاظت نفسه, but فاظ, meaning “ he died; ” not فاض, decidedly and he also says, nor does it necessarily follow from what he relates that he firmly believed it: AO says that فاظت نفسه is of the dial. of Keys; and فاضت, of the dial of Temeem and AHát says, I heard Az say that Benoo-Dabbeh alone say, فاضت نفسه: in like manner also El-Mázinee says. on the authority of Az. that all the Arabs say, فاظت نفسه. except Benoo-Dabbeh, who say, فاضت نفسه with ض. (TA.) [See also art. فيظ. It is further said, that] الفَيْضُ signifies Death: (A, K;) as occurring in a trad respecting Ed-Dejjál, where it is said, ثُمَّ يَكُونُ عَلَى أَثَرِ ذٰلِكَ الفَيْضُ [Then shall be, after that, death] (A, TA:) Sh says, I asked El-Bekráwee respecting this, and he asserted الفيض, in this case, to signify “ death; ” but I have not heard it from any other; unless it be from فَاضَتْ نَفْسَهُ signifying His slaver collecting upon his lips at the departure of his soul [flowed]. (TA.) b6: You say also فَاضَ صدْرُهُ مِنَ الغَيْظِ (tropical:) [His bosom overflowed with wrath, or rage], (A, TA.) And فَاضَ صَدْرُهُ بِالسِّرِّ His bosom disclosed, or concealed, the secret; (S, O, K;) his bosom could not conceal the secret; (M;) his bosom was full with the secret, and disclosed it, not being able to conceal it. (TA.) b7: And فَيْضٌ is used as meaning (assumed tropical:) God's suggesting (إِلْقَآء) [of a thing]: what the Devil suggests (يُلْقِيهِ) is termed الوَسْوَسَةُ. (Kull p. 277.) b8: فَاضَ البَعِيرُ بِجِرَّتِهِ: see 4, latter half.4 افاض: see 1, first sentence.

A2: He filled a vessel so that it overflowed: (S, M, O, K:) or [simply] he filled a vessel, (M, Msb,) accord. to Lh; but the former. [says ISd,] in my opinion, is the correct signification. (M.) b2: He made water, and tears, and the like, to run, or flow; or to pour out, or forth; or to pour out, or forth, vehemently; to gush out, or forth: (M:) he poured [water &c.] out, or forth: (A, TA:) or he poured water out, or forth, copiously. (Mgh.) You say, افاض المَآءَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ, (S, O, K,) or على جَسَدِهِ, (Msb,) He poured the water (S, O, Msb, K) upon himself, (S, O, K,) or upon his body. (Msb.) And افاض دُمُوعَهُ, (S,) or دَمْعَهُ, (Msb,) He poured forth his tears. (Msb.) And افاضت العَيْنُ الدَّمْعَ [The eye poured forth tears].

(Msb.) b4: افاض عَلَيْهِ الدِّرْعَ (tropical:) He put on him the coat of mail: like as you say صَبَّهَا [lit he poured it]. (A, TA.) b5: أَفَاضُوا مِنْ عَرَفَاتٍ (tropical:) They pushed on, pressed on, or went quickly, syn. دَفَعُوا, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) or اِنْدَفَعُوا, (M, A,) with multitude, (M, Mgh, O,) from 'Arafát, (S, M, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) to Minè, (S, M, O,) exclaiming لَبَّيْكَ: (M:) or they returned, and dispersed themselves from 'Arafát: (O, K:) or they hastened from 'Arafát to another place: (K:) the last rendering is taken from Ibn-'Arafeh; and agreeably with all of these renderings, the phrase in the Kur [ii. 194], فَإِذَا أَفَضْتُمْ مِنْ عَرَفَاتٍ, has been explained: (TA:) and [in like manner,] you say افاضوا مِنَ مِنَى إِلَى

مَكِّةَ (tropical:) They returned from Mine to Mekkeh; on the day of the sacrifice: (Msb:) إِفَاضَةٌ signifies (tropical:) the advancing, and pushing on, or pressing on, in journeying, or pace, (A, * TA,) and the like, (A,) with multitude, and is only after a state of separation and congregation: (TA:) it is from the same word as signifying the “ pouring out, or forth; ” (A, O, TA,) or from افاض المَآءَ signifying

“ he poured the water out, or forth, copiously ” (Mgh:) and the original expression is افاض نَفْسَهُ. or رَاحِلَتَهُ; but they omit the objective complement, and hence the verb resembles one that is intrans.: (O, TA:) or افاضة signifies the quickly impelling or urging [a beast] to run, with one's foot or leg, or feet or legs: and افاض, he (a (??)) made his camel to exert himself beyond measure, (??) quick run, between the utmost (??) and what is (??) than that; افاضة denoting the half [of the fall (??) of the run of camels having riders upon these; and being only applied when they have riders upon them: (Khálid Ibn-Jembeh:) and every دَفْعَة [or act of pushing on, or pressing (??),] is termed إِفَاضَةٌ. (S, Msb, K.) Hence, طَوَافُ الإِفَاضَةِ, signifying The (??) [around the K(??) the return from Mine to Mekkeh; (Msb, TA) on the day of the sacrifice: (TA:) or the circuiting of visitation. (Mgh.) b6: افاضوا فِى الحَدِيثِ (tropical:) They pushed on, or pressed on, in discourse; syn. اِنْدَفَعُوا: (Lh, S, M, A, O,) they entered thereinto; launched forth, or cut, thereinto: (Lh, M, O;) they were large, or copious, or profuse, therein; (O, TA:) or they dilated therein (M:) or they began, commenced, or entered upon, discourse: (Msb;) as also ↓ استفاضوهُ, (M, Msb,) accord. to some; (Msb;) but this latter is disallowed by most; (M;) or by the skilful, (Msb.) You say also, افاض فِى عَمَلٍ (assumed tropical:) He entered into an action, or employment; and pushed on, or pressed on, therein: (Bd in x. 62:) or he began it, commenced it, or entered upon it. (Jel, ibid.) b7: افاض بَالشَّيْءِ He impelled, or thrust, with the thing: (M:) he cast, or threw, the thing. (M, TA.) b8: افاض البَعِيرُ بِجِرَّتِهِ, (Lh, S, M, A, O,) and (S, O) افاض alone, (S, O, K,) and بِجِرَّتِهِ ↓ فَاضَ, (TA,) (tropical:) The camel propelled his cud (Lh, S, M, A, K) from his inside, (Lh, M, A,) or from his stomach, (S, K,) and expelled it, or ejected it: (S:) or cast it forth in a scattered and copious state: or it means [he made to be heard] the sound of his cud, and of his chewing. (M.) b9: مَا افاض بِكَلِمَةٍ (assumed tropical:) He did not make clear, or distinct, or perspicuous, a word, or sentence. (Msb, TA.) [And ما افاض بكلمة signifies the same.] b10: افاض بِالقِدَاحِ, (S, M, A, O, K,) and عَلَى القِدَاحِ, meaning بِالقِدَاحِ, for prepositions stand in the places of other prepositions, (S, O,) and افاض القِدَاحَ, (O, K,) (tropical:) i. q. ضَرَبَ بِالقِدَاحِ [which has two significations: He turned about, or shuffled, the gaming-arrows: and he played with the gaming-arrows]: (S, M, A, O, K:) and أَجَالَهَا [which has the former of the above significations]: or he dealt them forth. (TA.) Aboo-Dhu-eyb says, describing a [wild] he-ass and his she-asses, فَكَأَنَّهُنَّ رِبَابَةٌ وَكَأَنَّهُ يَسَرٌ يُفِيضُ عَلَى القِدَاحِ وَيَصْدَعُ (S, TA) (tropical:) [And it was as though they were a bundle of gaming-arrows, and as though he were a shuffler thereof, shuffling or] dealing out the arrows, and deciding, and making known what he produced: (TA:) or, accord. to Kh, and speaking with his loudest voice, saying “ The arrow of such a one has won,” or “ This is the arrow of such a one: ” or, accord. to some, distributing, or dispensing, by means of the arrows: (TA in art. صدع:) by عَلَى القِدَاحِ is meant بِالقِدَاحِ. (S voce عَلَى.) One relation of this verse substitutes يَخُوضُ for يُفِيضُ. (TA.) Az says that إِفَاض [a mistranscription for إِفَاضَةٌ] is always a consequence of a state of separation, or dispersion, and abundance, or copiousness. (TA.) b11: Hence the saying in a trad. respecting a thing picked up from the ground, ثُمَّ أَفِضْهَا مِنْ مَالِكَ, [app. a mistake for فِى مَالِكَ,] i. e. (assumed tropical:) Then put thou, or throw thou, it, and mix it, among thy property. (TA.) b12: أُفِيضَتْ She (a woman) became wide in the belly: [as though spread out:] or she became large in the belly, and flabby in flesh. (M.) A3: افاض المَرْأَةَ He made the مَسْلَكَانِ [i. e. vagina and rectum] of the woman to become one, on the occasion of devirgination; (M;) i. q. أَفْضَاهَا [from which it is app. formed by transposition, as is indicated in the M.].

فَيْضٌ A river, (M, TA,) in general: (TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَفْيَاضٌ and [of mult.] فُيُوضٌ: the pluralization thereof shows that it is not an inf. n. used as a subst.: (M, TA:) [and a river, or water, that overflows.] الفَيْضُ is [hence] applied to The Nile of Egypt: (S, O, K:) or, accord. to the Tekmileh, to a place in the Nile of Egypt: (TA:) and to the river of El-Basrah: (As, S, K:) or this last is called فَيْضُ البَصْرَةِ, because of its greatness.
