ظرب

1 ظَرِبَ بِهِ, aor. ـَ He, or it, stuck, adhered, or clave, to him, or it. (K.) 2 ظُرِّبَتِ الحَوَافِرُ, inf. n. تَظْرِيبٌ, The solid hoofs became hard and strong. (T, K.) ظَرِبٌ A stone projecting (Lth, T, M, Msb, K) from a mountain or from rugged ground (Lth, T) and having a sharp point: (Lth, T, M, K:) or an expanded mountain, (M, K, TA,) accord. to some, that is not high: (TA:) or a small mountain: (M, K:) or a small hill: (T, S, Msb:) pl. ظِرَابٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and أَظْرُبٌ, (Nh, TA,) [the latter a pl. of pauc.,] the former pl. of a rare kind, for by rule it should be أَظْرَابٌ, and it seems as though they had imagined the sing. to be ظَرْبٌ, and so made the pl. like سِهَامٌ, pl. of سَهْمٌ: (Msb, TA:) or, accord. to En-Nadr, ظَرِبٌ signifies the smallest of [hills such as are termed]

آكَام, and the sharpest in stones, all its stones being sharp like knives, the white thereof and the black and of every colour: and the pl. is أَظْرَابٌ. (T.) [See also this pl. below.]

ظُرُبٌّ Short, and thick, (M, K, TA,) and fleshy: (Lh, TA:) or a short and fleshy man. (S.) ظَرْبَى and ظِرْبَى: see ظَرِبَانٌ, in three places.

ظِرْبَآء and ظَِرِبَآء: see the next paragraph, in four places.

ظَرِبَانٌ (S, M, Msb, K, &c.) and ظِرْبَانٌ (AA, Az, Msb, TA) and ظَرْبَانٌ (IJ, TA) and ↓ ظِرَبَآءُ (M, CK, TA, or ↓ ظِرْبَآء or ↓ ظِرِبَآء accord. to two different copies of the K) A small, stinking beast, (Az, S, M, Msb, K,) resembling a cat, (Az, S, M, K,) or resembling a short Chinese dog, (Msb,) or resembling an ape or a monkey, (AA, T, M, TA,) or above the whelp of a dog, (El-Mustaksee, TA,) that often emits a noiseless wind from the anus; (M, Msb, * TA;) said by Az, on the authority of the handwriting of AHeyth, to be a beast that has small legs, their length being that of half a finger, but which is broad, its breadth being equal to the space measured by the extension of the thumb and the little finger, or of the thumb and the fore finger, and its length being a cubit, having a compact head, and its ears [for ادناه, in my original, I read أُذُنَاهُ] being like the cat's; (TA;) it is small and short in the ears, (أَصْلَمُ الأُذُنَيْنِ, M, Msb,) or having a stoppage of the ears, (أَصَمُّ الاذنين, TA,) its earholes [only] hearing a confused, or humming, or ringing, sound; (M, TA;) long in the snout, [but El-Farezdak speaks of it as having a short nose, as is shown in the S,] black in the back, white in the belly; (M, Msb, TA;) it is said that its back is [or rather contains] one single bone, without any قَفَص [or cage-formed structure of ribs, &c.], and that the sword has no effect upon it by reason of the hardness of its skin, unless striking its nose: (TA:) the pl. is ظَرَابِينُ, (M, K,) or ظَرَابِىُّ, (Az, T, S, Msb,) sometimes, (S,) or this latter also, (M, K,) as though it were pl. of ظِرْبَآء, (S,) or the first ى is a substitute for the ا [of the sing. ظَرِبَانٌ] and the second for the ن, (M,) and (quasi-pl. ns., M, K) ↓ ظِرْبَى (Az, T, M, Msb, K) and ↓ ظِرْبَآءُ, (M, K,) or ↓ ظِرْبَى, is a pl. like حِجْلَى pl. of حَجَلٌ, (S, TA,) and these two are [said to be] the only pls. of this measure, (AHei, TA,) and Lth and AHeyth say that ظِرْبَآءُ is incorrect, and is rightly ↓ ظِرْبَى. (T, TA.) A poet says, (namely, 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Hajjáj Ez-Zebeedee, M, TA,) أَلَا أَبْلِغَا قَيْسًا وَخِنْدِفَ أَنَّنِى

ضَرَبْتُ كَثِيرًا مَضْرِبَ الظَّرِبَانِ [Now tell ye Keys and Khindif that I have struck Ketheer in the place of striking of the ظربان], meaning that he had struck Ketheer Ibn-Shiháb (S, M, TA) El-Medh-hijee upon his face; for the ظربان has a line, or long mark, upon his face; and he likens the blow that he inflicted upon his face to that mark: [see مَضْرِبٌ:] and the same words of the latter hemistich, except that عُبَيْدًا is substituted in them for كَثِيرًا, occur in a verse of Asad Ibn-Nághisah, who slew 'Obeyd by order of En-Noamán. (TA.) One says, فَسَا بَيْنَنَا الظَّرِبَانُ, (S,) or بَيْنَهُم, (Msb, K,) [lit. The ظربان emitted a noiseless wind from its anus among us, or among them,] a prov., (S,) meaning that we, or they, became disunited, and alienated, one from another: [for] when this animal emits a noiseless wind from its anus in the garment of a man, the stink does not go away until the garment wears out: (S, Msb, K:) the Arabs of the desert assert that it does so in the garment of him who hunts it: (S:) and it is said to do so in the hole of the [lizard called] ضَبّ, which, being stupified by the foulness of the stink, is taken and eaten by it. (M, K, TA.) One says also, تَشَاتَمَا فَكَأَنَّمَا جَزَرَا بَيْنَهُمَا ظَرِبَانًا [They reviled each other, and it was as though they slaughtered between them a ظربان]: the foulness of their reviling being likened to the stink of that animal. (M, TA.) And يَتَنَازَعَانِ جِلْدَ الظَّرِبَانِ They two contend in pulling at the skin of the ظربان, meaning (assumed tropical:) they revile each other: (M, TA:) and يَتَمَاشَنَانِ جِلْدَ الظَّرِبَانِ They wipe their hands together upon the skin of the ظربان, [likewise] meaning (assumed tropical:) they revile each other. (IAar, T, TA.) الأَظْرَابُ [accord. to some] signifies Four teeth behind the نَوَاجِذ [or other grinders; app. meaning, of a horse]: (K:) or the sockets (أَسْنَاخ) of the teeth: (S, K:) [and it is said that] أَظْرَابُ اللِّجَامِ signifies the knots that are at the extremities of the bit. (M, TA.) J cites the following verse, ascribing it to 'Ámir Ibn-Et-Tufeyl, وَمُقَطِّعٍ حَلَقَ الرِّحَالَةِ سَابِحٍ

بَادٍ نَوَاجِذُهُ عَنِ الأَظْرَابِ [thus in the S, (but in the M and TA عَلَى

الأَظْرَابِ,) as though meaning And breaking in pieces the rings of the girth of the saddle, running with the fore legs well stretched forth, his grinders appearing from the sockets]: but IB says, [following the reading in the M and TA,] the verse is by Lebeed; and the poet is describing a horse that breaks in pieces the rings of the saddle by his springing forward, and whose grinders (نَوَاجِذُهُ) appear when he treads upon the [stones, or hills, called] ظِرَاب: [see ظَرِبٌ, of which both ظِرَابٌ and أَظْرَابٌ are said to be pls.:] also that the right reading is وَمُقَطِّعٌ [and سَابِحٌ]: and by the نواجذ are meant the ضَوَاحِك [or teeth next behind the canine teeth], accord. to Hr. (TA.) حَوَافِرُ مُظَرَّبَةٌ [accord. to the TA مُظَرِّبَةٌ, but this is evidently a mistake (see 2),] means [Solid hoofs] that have become hard and strong: (K, TA:) [but] accord. to El-Mufaddal, المُظَرَّبُ, like مُعَظَّم [in measure], signifies الَّذِى قَدْ لَوَّحَتْهُ الظِّرَابُ [app. meaning that which the stones, or hills, called ظِرَاب have altered, or, perhaps, heated, in its treading upon them]. (TA.)

فخت

1 فَخَتَتْ, said of a woman, She walked with an elegant and a proud and self-conceited gait, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side. (Msb.) [See also 5.] b2: And, said of the bird called فَاخِتَة, It [cooed, or] uttered a cry or sound. (K.) b3: And فَخَتَ He lied, or uttered a falsehood. (A, TA. [See فَاخِتَةٌ.]) A2: فَخَتَهُ, aor. ـَ He cut it off (K, TA) with a sword. (TA.) b2: فَخَتَ رَأْسَهُ He smote his head with a sword, (O, K, TA,) and cut it off. (TA.) b3: فَخَتَ الإِنَآءَ, (K, TA,) inf. n. فَخْتٌ, (TA,) He uncovered the vessel. (K, TA.) b4: And الفَخْتُ signifies also The cook's taking out with the hand a piece of flesh-meat from the cooking-pot: (K, TA:) مِنَ القِدْرَةِ, the reading found in copies of the K, [in the CK من الفِدْرَةِ,] is a mistake: it should be من القِدْرِ, as in the L [and O] &c. (TA.) 5 تفخّت He walked in the manner of the bird called فَاخِتَة: thus in the K: but in most of the lexicons تَفَخَّتَتْ: (TA:) i. e. she (a woman) walked as walks the فَاخِتَة: (A:) [or,] accord. to Lth, [in the 'Eyn,] signifying مشت مجنبحة: (TA: in the O, مَشَتْ مجنحه; and in the margin thereof, مُجَنْبِخَةً: [the right reading is مَشَتْ مُجْتَنِحَةً; thus in the JK, a lexicon founded upon the 'Eyn:] thought by him to be from the walking of the bird called فَاخِتَة: (O, * TA:) he means, she strode in her walking, and held out her arms apart from [her sides beneath] her armpits. (TA.) b2: And He wondered, syn. تَعَجَّبَ, (O, K, TA,) and said, How good, or goodly, is he, or it! (O, TA.) And it is said of a man as signifying تعجّب فِى مِشْيَتِهِ [app. meaning He showed عُجْب, i. e. self-admiration, &c., in his gait: but I do not find this signification assigned to تعجّب]. (TA.) b3: And He affected lying; or lied purposely; syn. تَكَذَّبَ. (A, TA.) 7 انفخت, said of a roof, It became perforated. (O, K.) فَخْتٌ The light of the moon; moonlight: (S, A, O, K:) or the light of the moon when it first appears: and hence [as some say] the derivation of فَاخِتَةٌ [as the name of a certain bird], because of its colour: (Msb: [see, however, what follows:]) you say, جَلَسْنَا فِى الفَخْتِ [as though meaning We sat in the moonlight]: (A 'Obeyd, S, O:) but Sh says, I have not heard الفِخْت except in this instance; and Aboo-Is-hák states that some one of the lexicologists says, I know not whether it be a name of the light of the moon or of its darkness: Abu-l-'Abbás says that the meaning [in the saying above mentioned] is, in the shade of the moon [i. e. in the shade of a moonlight-night; and to this the colour of the فَاخِتَة may be likened]. (TA.) A2: Also The [snare, or trap, &c., called]

فَخّ, (K, TA,) of the sportsman: (TA:) or [a thing] nearly resembling the فَخّ. (O.) A3: and Holes, or perforations, of a round form, in a roof. (O, K.) فَاخِتَةٌ A certain well-known bird; (K;) of those having neck-rings [or collars]; (S, O;) a species of pigeon, marked with a neck-ring: (TA:) accord. to Ibn-El-Jawáleekee, (IB, TA,) the name is derived from الفَخْتُ, (IB, Msb, TA,) meaning “ the light of the moon,” (IB, TA,) or “ the light of the moon when it first appears; ”

because of its colour: (Msb:) [hence, and from what will be found stated voce قُمْرِىٌّ, it seems to be a species of collared turtle-dove, of a dull white colour, marked with a black neck-ring:] or, as some say, the word is a part. n. from فَخَتَتْ signifying as expl. in the first sentence of this art.: (Msb:) the pl. is فَوَاخِتُ. (S, O, Msb.) أَكْذَبُ مِنْ فَاخِتَةٍ [More lying than a fákhiteh] is a prov.; because the cry of the فاختة resembles هٰذَا أَوَانُ الرُّطَبِ [This is the season of the fresh ripe dates]; and this it utters when the spadix of the palmtree has not yet come forth. (Meyd. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 383.])

فطر

1 فَطَرَهُ, (S, M, K,) aor. ـُ (M, K, TA,) and, accord. to the K, فَطِرَ also, but this latter form requires consideration, for it is related by Sgh, from Fr, in another sense, that of milking a camel, and not unrestrictedly, (TA,) inf. n. فَطْرٌ; (S, M;) and ↓ فطّرهُ, (M, TA,) inf. n. تَفْطِيرٌ; (TA;) [but the latter is with teshdeed to denote muchness, or frequency, or repetition, of the action, or its application to many objects;] He clave, split, slit, rent, or cracked, it.

(TA.) I'Ab says, I did not know what is [the meaning of] السَّمٰوَاتِ ↓ فَاطِرُ [The Originater, or Creator, of the heavens] until two Arabs of the desert came to me, disputing together respecting a well, and one of them said أَنَا فَطَرْتُهَا, meaning, I originated, or began, it. (S.) فُطِرَ عَلَى الشَّىْءِ: see طُبِعَ. [The explanation there given is confirmed by explanations of فِطْرَةٌ.]

(Msb.) And you say also هٰذَا كَلَامٌ يُفْطِرُ الصَّوْمَ, [and, more commonly, يُفَطِّرُهُ,] This is speech which breaks, or vitiates, the fast. (TA.) A3: فطّر العَجِينَ: see 1.4 افطر He broke his fast; (S, * Mgh; *) he breakfasted; he ate and drank after fasting; (Msb, * K;) as also ↓ فَطَرَ, (K,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. فُطُورٌ: (Msb, TA:) his fast became vitiated.

(IAth.) A2: افطرهُ: see 2.

A3: افطر الجِلْدَ: see 1.5 تَفَطَّرَ see the next paragraph, in six places.7 انفطر, and ↓ تفطّر, (S, M, K,) and ↓ فَطَرَ, (M,) [but the second is with teshdeed as quasi-pass. of 2, to denote muchness, or frequency, or repetition, or application to many subjects of the action, as is indicated in the S by its being expl. by تَشَقَّقَ,] It became cleft, split, slit, rent, or cracked. (S, M, K.) إِذَا السَّمَآءُ انْفَطَرَتْ [in the Kur lxxxii. 1] means When the heaven shall become cleft. (Bd, TA.)

(TA in art. صدع.) 8 إِفْتَطَرَ see 1. And see also 8 in art. شرع.

فَطْرٌ [as an inf. n.: see 1: b2: as a subst.,] A cleft, split, slit, rent, or crack: (K:) or, accord. to some, a first cleft &c.: (MF:) pl. فُطُورٌ: (K:) occurring in the saying هَلْ تَرَى مِنْ فُطُورٍ [Dost thou see any clefts?], in the Kur [lxvii. 3]. (TA.) A2: 'Omar, being asked respecting [the discharge termed] المَذْى, answered, It is الفَطْرُ: (O, K:) thus as related by A 'Obeyd: (TA:) it is said that he likened it, in respect of its paucity, to what is drawn from the udder by means of the milking termed الفَطْرُ: (O, K:) or, as some say, it is from تَفَطَّرَتْ قَدَمَاهُ دَمًا [expl. above]: (TA:) or he likened its coming forth from the orifice of the ذَكَر to the coming forth of the نَاب of the camel: or, as it is related by En-Nadr, he said ↓ الفُطْرُ, with damm: meaning the milk that appears upon the orifice of the teat of the udder. (O, K.) فُطْرٌ Such as has broken forth [with buds or leaves] (مَا تَفَطَّرَ), of plants. (TA.) See also فِطْرٌ. b2: And, (S, K,) as also ↓ فُطُرٌ, (K,) the latter used in poetry, (TA,) [The toadstool;] a species of كَمْأَة [or fungus], (S, K,) white and large, (S,) and deadly: (K:) [so called] because the ground cleaves asunder from it: (TA:) n. un. فُطْرَةٌ. (S.) [Also applied in the present day to The common mushroom; agariens campestris. And Any fungus.]

A2: [Also, the former, Immaturity, or want of leaven, in dough:] see the explanation of فَطَرَتِ المَرْأَةُ العَجِينَ.

A3: And فُطْرٌ and ↓ فُطُرٌ signify also Somewhat of that which remains of milk [in the udder], which is then milked: (L, K:) or a small quantity of milk when it is milked: (TA:) or milk at the time when it is milked. (AA, TA.) See also فَطْرٌ, last sentence.

فِطْرٌ Grapes when the heads thereof appear; (K, TA;) [so called] because the [fruit-] stalks [then] break forth (تَنْفَطِرُ); (TA;) as also ↓ فُطْرٌ. (K, TA.) A2: Also a subst. from أَفْطَرَ; (S;) [as such] it signifies The breaking of a fast; contr. of صَوْمٌ. (TA.) [Hence, عِيدُ الفِطْرِ The festival of the breaking of the fast, immediately after Rama-dán; sometimes called الفِطْرُ alone.] ↓ الفِطْرَةُ means صَدَقَةُ الفِطْرِ [The alms of the breaking of the fast], (O, K, TA,) which is a صَاع [q. v.] of wheat: the prefixed noun (صدقه) is rejected, and ة is affixed to its complement (الفطر) to indicate that such has been done: but it is a word used by the lawyers; not of the classical language. (TA.) A3: See also مُفْطِرٌ.

فُطُرٌ: see فُطْرٌ, in two places.

فِطْرَةٌ Creation: (Msb:) the causing a thing to exist, producing it, or bringing it into existence, newly, for the first time; originating it. (TA.) b2: The natural constitution with which a child is created in his mother's womb; (AHeyth, K;) i. q. خِلْقَةٌ. (S, Mgh.) It is said to have this signification in the Kur xxx. 29. (TA.) And so in the saying of Mohammad, كُلُّ مَوْلُودٍ يُولَدُ عَلَى

الفِطْرَةِ Every infant is born in a state of conformity to the natural constitution with which he is created in his mother's womb, either prosperous or unprosperous [in relation to the soul]; and if his parents are Jews, they make him a Jew, with respect to his worldly predicament; [i. e., with respect to inheritances &c.;] and if Christians, they make him a Christian, with respect to that predicament; and if Magians, they make him a Magian, with respect to that predicament; his predicament is the same as that of his parents until his tongue speaks for him: but if he die before his attaining to the age when virility begins to show itself, he dies in a state of conformity to his preceding natural constitution, with which he was created in his mother's womb. (AHeyth, TA.) [See another explanation of the word, as occurring in this trad., below.] b3: Nature; constitution; or natural, native, innate, or original, disposition, or temper or other quality or property; idiosyncrasy. (Th, TA.) b4: The faculty of knowing God, with which He has created mankind: (TA:) the natural constitution with which a child is created in his mother's womb, whereby he is capable of accepting the religion of truth: this is a secondary application: and this is [said to be] the signification meant in the trad. mentioned above. (Mgh.) b5: Hence, The religion of el-Islám: (Mgh:) the profession whereby a man becomes a Muslim, which is the declaration that there is no deity but God, and that Mohammad is his servant and his apostle, who brought the truth from Him, and this is (AHeyth, TA) religion. (AHeyth, K, TA.) This is shown by a trad., in which it is related that Mohammad taught a man to repeat certain words when lying down to sleep, and said فَإِنَّكَ إِنْ مُتَّ مِنْ لَيْلَتِكَ مُتَّ عَلَى الفِطْرَةِ [And then, if thou die that same night, thou diest in the profession of the true religion]. (AHeyth, TA.) Also by the saying, قَصُّ الأَظْفَارِ مِنَ الفِطْرَةِ The paring of the nails is [a point] of the religion of el-Islám. (Mgh.) b6: Also i. q. سُنَّةٌ [app. meaning The way, course, mode, or manner, of acting, or conduct, or the like, pursued, and prescribed to be followed, by Mohammad]. (TA.) b7: In the Kur xxx. 29, accord. to some, The covenant received, or accepted, from Adam and his posterity. (Bd.) b8: The pl. is فِطَرَاتٌ and فِطْرَاتٌ and فِطِرَاتٌ. (TA.) A2: See also فِطْرٌ.

(TA.) You say عِنْدِى خُبْزٌ خَمِيرٌ وَحَيْسٌ فَطِيرٌ [I have leavened bread, and] fresh, recent, or newly made, حيس [q. v.]. (S, TA.)

(Hájjee Khaleefeh.) b4: And (tropical:) The hair of a woman: pl. as above [app. used in a collective sense like the French “ cheveux ”]: (K, TA:) one says اِمْرَأَةٌ طَوِيلَةُ الفُرُوعِ [meaning (tropical:) A long-haired woman].

“ a branch,” and be metonymically used as meaning recent property. (TA.) A4: See also the next paragraph, latter half.

فَرَعٌ The firstling of the camel, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) or of the sheep or goat, (L, K,) which they used to sacrifice to their gods, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) looking for a blessing thereby; (S, O, Msb;) and ↓ فَرَعَةٌ signifies the same: (Mgh, Msb:) hence, (Mgh, O, K,) it is said in a trad., [implying the prohibition of this custom,] لَا فَرَعَ وَلَا عَتِيرَةٌ, (S, O, K, *) or وَلَا عَتِيرَةَ ↓ لَا فَرَعَةَ: (Mgh: [see عَتِيرَةٌ:]) or when the camels amounted to the number for which their owner wished, they sacrificed [a firstling]: (TA:) or when one's camels amounted to a complete hundred, (K, TA,) he sacrificed a he-camel thereof every year, and gave it to the people to eat, neither he nor his family tasting it, or rather, it is said, (TA,) he sacrificed a young, or youthful, he-camel to his idol: and the Muslims used to do it in the first part of ElIslám: then it was abrogated: (K, TA:) accord. to the Bári' and the Mj, the firstling of camels and also that of sheep or goats are thus called: (Msb:) the pl.

[And a day continued to them, the heat whereof was as though it were the blazing of fire, from the asterism of the فُرُوعِ; a long day]: (S, * O, TA:) in the S, وَظَلَّ لَنَا; but correctly لَهَا, meaning to the she-asses: (TA:) and Aboo-Sa'eed related it as above with the unpointed ع in الفروع: (S, * TA:) in the same manner, also, it is expl. by him as used in the phrase فَيْحُ نَجْمِ الفُرُوعِ [which I would render the vehement raging of the heat of the asterism of the فروع] in a verse of Umeiyeh Ibn-Abee-'Áïdh: El-Jumahee related it differently, with غ; but the فُرُوغ [or rather the فَرْغَانِ] are of the stars of Aquarius; and the season thereof [i. e. of their auroral rising] is cold; there is then no فيح. (TA.) فُرَيْعٌ, occurring [with tenween, perfectly decl.,] in a verse of Umeiyeh Ibn-Abi-s-Salt, (O, K,) i. q. ↓ فِرْعَوْنُ, (O,) which is a proper name of such as was King of the Amalekites [or rather of the ancient Egyptians, in general], like as قَيْصَر was of the Room [or Greeks of the Lower Empire], and كِسْرَى of the Persians, (Ksh in ii.

46,) [and also] a foreign word, (Msb,) [wherefore it is imperfectly decl., in Hebr.

פַּרְעֹה, i. e. Pharaoh,] a dial. var. of فِرْعَوْنُ, or used by poetic license: (K:) the pl. of the latter is فَرَاعِنَةٌ. (Msb.) فِرْعَوْنُ: see the next preceding paragraph.

فَارِعٌ [Overtopping, or surpassing in height or tallness: this seems to be the primary signification]. You say جَبَلٌ فَارِعٌ A mountain higher, or taller, than what is next to it. (S, O.) b2: and High, or tall; applied to a man, and to an extended gibbous piece of sand. (TA.) b3: and High, or elevated; goodly in form or aspect or appearance; beautiful: (Aboo-'Adnán, O, K:) or [simply] high [app. in rank or dignity]: (IAar, O:) and also low, ignoble, or mean: (IAar, O, K:) thus having two contr. significations.

وَاحْذَرْ أَسْفَلَهُ [Alight thou in the higher, or highest, part of the valley, and beware of its lower, or lowest, part]. (S, O.) See also فَرْعَةٌ, in two places. b2: الفَارِعَةُ مِنَ الغَنَائِمِ means The surplus that is deducted [so I render المُرْتَفِعَةُ الصَّاعِدَةُ, app. such things as cannot be divided and are therefore removed,] from the main stock of the spoils before they are divided into fifths. (TA.) b3: And فَوَارِعٌ, (pl. of فَارِعَةٌ, TA,) applied to تِلَاع, [a word variously explained, here, I think, used as signifying either high, or low, grounds, (see its sing. تَلْعَةٌ,)] (S, O, * K, *) means Of which the channels wherein the torrents flow are in high, or elevated, parts. (S, O, K.) فَيْفَرْعٌ (K, TA) and فَيْفَرَعٌ (TA) A species of trees. (K, TA.) أَفْرَعُ Free from deficiency in the hair [of the head]; (S, O, K;) contr. of أَصْلَعُ; (IDrd, S, O, K;) used only in this sense; not applied to a man who is large in the beard or in the whole head of hair: (IDrd, S, O:) the Prophet was أَفْرَع, (S, O,) and so was Aboo-Bekr, (O, K,) and 'Omar was أَصْلَع: (O:) fem. فَرْعَآءُ; (S, O, K;) accord. to IDrd, applied to a woman as meaning having much hair: (S, O:) pl. فُرْعَانٌ, (O, K,) like its contr. صُلْعَانٌ; (O;) and also فُرْعٌ. (K.) 'Omar, being asked, “Are the صُلْعَان better or the فُرْعَان,” said “ The فرعان are better,” meaning to assert the superior excellence of Aboo-Bekr over himself. (O.) b2: فَرْعَآءُ الطَّرِيقِ: see فَرْعَةٌ.

A2: Also i. q. مُوَسْوِسُ [app. as meaning Such as is subject to diabolical promptings or suggestions]: so in the trad., لَا يَؤُمَّنَّكُمُ الأَفْرَعُ [The افرع shall by no means act as your Imám]. (Nh, K, TA.) مُفْرَعٌ Anything tall. (TA.) b2: مُفْرَعُ الكَتِفِ A man broad in the shoulder-blade: (S, O, TA:) or high therein. (TA.)

(L.) b2: لَمَحْتُهُ بِالبَصَرِ I directed (صَوَّبْتُ) my sight towards him. (Msb.) b3: لَمَحَ البَصَرُ The sight extended to a thing.

(S.) b3: فِى فُلَانٍ لَمْحَةٌ مِنْ أَبِيهِ In such a one is a likeness, or point of resemblance, to his father: then they said مِنْ ابيه ↓ مَلامِحُ, (S,) signifying likenessess, or points of resemblance; forming an extr. pl., (S, K,) as though from another word than لَمْحَةٌ: (S:) they did not say مَلْمَحَةٌ.

1 لَمَسَهُ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, M, Msb, K) and لَمِسَ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (S, M, Msb,) He felt it; or touched it; syn. مَسَّهُ: (IAar, Az, IDrd, El-Fárábee, A, Msb, TA:) or he felt it, or touched it, (مَسَّهُ,) with his hand: (S, Msb, K:) or he put his hand to it: (Msb:) or he felt it with his hand for the purpose of testing it, that he might form a judgment of it; syn. جَسَّهُ: (M, TA:) and ↓ لَامَسَهُ is syn. with لَمَسَهُ, (M, TA,) or مَاسَّهُ: (A:) لَمْسٌ and مَسٌّ both signify the perceiving by means of the exterior of the external skin: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or they are nearly alike: (TA:) [generally, like the English words feeling and touching, respectively:] or the former is, originally, [the feeling] with the hand for the purpose of knowing the feel (مَسّ) of a thing: (IDrd, Msb:) or, with the hand, it is the seeking for [or feeling for] a thing here and there: (Lth, TA:) مُلَامَسَةٌ is the same as مُمَاسَّةٌ (K, TA) with the hand; as also لَمْسٌ: (TA:) or a distinction is to be made between them; for it is said that لَمْسٌ is sometimes the feeling, or touching a thing with a thing; and is sometimes [for] the knowledge of a thing, though there be no touching (مَسّ) of substance upon substance; whereas ملامسة is mostly mutual feeling or touching, &c., being] the act of two. (IAar in TA.) b2: [Hence,] لَمَسَهَا, (M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (M) [and لَمِسَ, as implied in the K], inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (S, M,) (tropical:) Inivit eam; (I'Ab, S, M, A, Msb, K;) scil. mulierem; (A, Msb;) puellam; (K;) as also ↓ لَامَسَهَا, (M, A, Msb,) inf. n. مُلَامَسَةٌ (I'Ab, S, Msb, K) and لِمَاسٌ: (I'Ab, Msb:) and (assumed tropical:) he kissed her; by doing which, as well as by the former, one renders necessary the performance of the ablution termed وضوء. ('Abd-Allah Ibn-'Amr, Ibn-Mes'ood.) b3: [Hence also,] لَمَسَهُ, aor. ـُ [and لَمِسَ], (A, TA,) inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (IDrd, Msb, TA,) (tropical:) He sought, [as though by feeling,] or sought for or after, it, namely, a thing, (IDrd, Msb, TA,) in any manner; (IDrd, Msb;) [as, for instance, by asking, or demanding;] as also ↓ التمسهُ, (S, M, A, * K, TA,) [which is more common,] and ↓ تلمّسهُ: (M, TA:) or this last signifies he sought it, or sought for or after it, repeatedly, or time after time. (S, K, TA.) You say, أُلْمُسْ لِى فُلَانًا (A, TA) (tropical:) Seek thou for me such a one. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [lxxii. 8,] relating the words of the jinn, or genii, إِنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَآءَ, (K, * TA, *) (tropical:) Verily we sought to reach heaven: or to learn the news thereof: (Bd:) or to hear by stealth what was said therein: (Jel:) or we laboured, or strove, after (عَالَجْنَا) the secrets of heaven, and sought to hear them by stealth. (K.) And in a trad., بِهِ عِلْمًا ↓ مَنْ سَلَكَ طَرِيقًا يَلْتَمِسُ (tropical:) Whoso pursueth a way whereby he seeketh after knowledge, or science. (TA.) And in another, of 'Áïsheh, عِقْدِى ↓ فَالْتَمَسْتُ (tropical:) And I sought for my necklace. (TA.) b4: لَمَسَ البَصَرَ, aor. ـُ (tropical:) It took away the sight. (A, TA.) And the same, or, accord. to one relation of a trad., ↓ التمسهُ, (assumed tropical:) It took away quickly, and destroyed, the sight; said there of certain serpents: or the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) it aimed at the eye with its bite: and لَمَسَ عَيْنَهُ is said to signify [(assumed tropical:) he, or it, put out his eye,] the same as سَمَلَ. (TA.) 3 لامسهُ, inf. n. مُلَامَسَةٌ and لِمَاسٌ: for its proper signification, see 1, in three places. [Hence,] بَيْعُ المُلَامَسَةِ, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb,) and بَيْعُ اللِّمَاسِ, (Mgh,) or المُلَامَسَةُ فِى البَيْعِ, (K,) A mode of bargaining, which consists in saying, When thou feelest, or touchest, my garment, or I feel, or touch, thy garment, (A, K,) or when, (Mgh,) or if, (Msb,) I feel, or touch, thy garment, and thou feelest, or touchest, my garment, (Mgh, Msb,) or when I feel, or touch, the thing to be sold, (S,) the sale is binding, or settled, or concluded, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) between us, (S, Msb,) for such a sum: (S, Msb, K:) or, accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh, in thy saying, I will sell to thee this commodity for such a sum, and when I feel, or touch, thee, the sale is binding, or settled, or concluded; or in the purchaser's saying the like: (Mgh:) or, (M, Mgh, K,) as in the Sunan of Aboo-Dáwood, (Mgh,) in purchasing a commodity on the condition of feeling it (M, Mgh, * K, *) behind a garment or piece of cloth, (K,) without seeing it, (M, K,) or spreading it out and turning it over and examining it: (Mgh:) or on the condition that the feeling it with the hand shall cut one off from the choice of returning it: (TA:) the mode of bargaining thus termed is forbidden. (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb.) b2: For a tropical signification of the verb, see 1.4 أَلْمِسْنِى الجَارِيَةَ Permit thou me to feel, or touch, the girl. (A, TA.) b2: أَلْمِسْنِى امْرَأَْةً (tropical:) Marry thou to me a woman. (A, TA.) 5 تَلَمَّسَ see 1, in two places.8 إِلْتَمَسَ see 1, in four places.

لَمُوسٌ A she-camel of whose fatness one doubts; (O, TS, K;) on the authority of Ibn-'Abbád; (TA;) i. q. شَكُوكٌ and ضَبُوثٌ: (A, TA:) or of whose hump one doubts, whether there be in her fat or not; wherefore it is felt: (M, L:) pl. لُمُسٌ.

(S, M, O, L.) لَمُوسَةٌ A road, or way: so called because he who has lost his way seeks it in order to find the track of the travellers. (K, * TA.) لَامِسٌ act. part. n. of 1. (Msb, &c.) One says, of a woman who commits adultery, or fornication, or acts viciously, فَلَانَةُ لَا تَرُدُّ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (A, TA,) or لَا تَمْنَعُ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (K,) but the latter is at variance with the written authorities, the former being the phrase commonly known, (TA,) [properly signifying, Such a woman does not repel the hand of a feeler;] meaning, (tropical:) such a woman commits adultery, or fornication, and acts viciously, (K, TA,) not repelling from herself any one who desires of her that he may lie with her; (TA;) and she is suspected of easiness, or compliance, (K, TA,) towards him who desires of her that he may lie with her: (TA:) or the meaning is, such a woman gives, of her husband's property, what is sought, or demanded, from her; and this is more probably meant in a trad. in which a man is related to have said thus of his wife; because Mohammad directed him to retain her, and did not require him to divorce her. (TA.) The like said of a man, (K,) فُلَانٌ لَا يَرُدُّ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (A, Msb,) means, (tropical:) Such a man has in him no force of resistance, (A, Msb, K,) nor care of what is sacred, or inviolable. (TA.) مَلْمَسٌ [A place that is felt, or touched: and it may also be an inf. n.: see لَمِيسٌ].

(TA.) And صَبَأَت said of the ثَنِيَّة [i. e. a central incisor] of a boy, It grew forth. (S.) b2: Also, said of a star, (M, K,) and of the moon, (M,) It rose; and so ↓ اصبأ: (M, K:) or تَصْبَأَ النُّجُومُ the stars come forth from their places of rising: (AO, S:) or صَبَأَتِ النُّجُومُ the stars appeared: (TA:) and النَّجْمُ ↓ اصبأ the Pleiades [antonomastically called النجم] rose.

(K.) A2: One says also, صَبَأَ عَلَيْهِمُ العَدُوَّ, (M, * K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. صَبْءٌ; (M;) as also صَبَعَ; (TA;) He guided to them (M, K) the enemy: (K:) mentioned by IAar, from Az. (TA.) b2: And قُدِّمَ

↓ إِلَيْهِ طَعَامٌ فَمَا صَبَأَ وَلَا أَصْبَأَ Food was presented to him, and he did not put (M, K *) his hand (M) or his finger (إِصْبَعَهُ K) into it, or upon it: (M,) K: [see also صَبَعَ:]) mentioned by IAar. (M.) And صَبَأَ فِى الطَّعَامِ, aor. ـُ He [app. a camel] put his head into the food: as also صَبَغَ. (O in art. صبغ.) And صَبَأَتْ فِيهَا رَأْسَهَا [or فِيهِ, She put her head into it]; like صَبَغَتْ. (TA in that art.) 4 أَصْبَاَ see the preceding paragraph, in six places.

صَابِئٌ [part. n. of صَبَأَ: and as such signifying] One who departs from his religion to another religion. (Msb.) The Arabs used to call the Prophet الصَّابِى [for الصَّابِئُ], because he departed from the religion of Kureysh to El-Islám; and him who entered the religion of El-Islám, مَصْبُوٌّ, changing the ء to و; and the Muslims [collectively], الصُّبَاةٌ, as though pl. of الصَّابِىِ, without ء, like قُضَاةٌ and غُزَاةٌ pls. of قَاضٍ and غَازٍ. (TA.) And [the pl.] الصَّابِئُونَ in the Kur [v. 73, &c.,] is said by Zj to mean Those who depart from one religion to another. (TA.) b2: Then this appellation, صَابِئٌ, was applied to [Any individual of] a certain sect of the unbelievers, [the Sabians,] said to worship the stars secretly, and openly to profess themselves to belong to the Christians: they are called الصَّابِئَةُ and الضَّابِئُونَ: and they assert that they are of the religion of Sábi the son of Sheyth [or Seth] the son of Adam: their appellation may also be pronounced الصَّابِيُونَ, and thus Náfi' read it [in the Kur]: (Msb:) or the صَابِئُونَ are a certain class of the people who possess revealed scripture: (S:) or a people whose religion resembles that of the Christians, except that their kibleh is towards the place whence blows the [south, or southerly, wind called] جَنُوب: (Lth, T, TA:) [or] whose kibleh is from (مِنْ [or this may mean some point of]) the place whence blows the [north, or northerly, wind called] شَمَال at midday: (M, K:) or, accord. to some, their kibleh is the Kaabeh: (MF:) and they assert that they are of the religion of Noah, (Lth, T, M, K,) lyingly: (Lth, T, M:) in the R it is said that they are thus called in relation to Sábi the son of Lámak [or Lamech], the brother of Noah: Bd says, it is said that they are worshippers of the angels: and it is said that they are worshippers of the stars: and that their appellation is Arabic; from صَبَأَ “ he departed from a religion; ” or from صَبَا “ he inclined,” because of their inclining from truth to falsehood. (MF, TA.)

[But it is used often in the latter sense:] one says, الشَّمْعُ مِمَّا يُصْطَبَحُ بِهِ Candles are of the things with which one lights [himself, or others]; syn. يُسْرَجُ: (S:) [and in like manner ↓ تصبّح; for] one says, هُوَ يَتَصَبَّحُ بِالشُّمُوعِ [He lights himself, or others, with candles]: (A:) [and in like manner also ↓ استصبح; for] one says, استصبح بِالمِصْبَاحِ (S, MA, Mgh, Msb, K *) He lighted [himself, or another,] with the lamp, or wick; (MA;) syn. أَسْرَجَ; (S;) or اِسْتَسْرَجَ: (K:) [hence it appears that اصطبح بِهِ and به ↓ استصبح and به ↓ تصبّح may be aptly rendered he employed it as a means of light; and thus the second of these three verbs, is expl. in treatises on practical law:] one says also, بِالدُّهْنِ ↓ استصبح [He employed oil as a means of light; or] he made the lamp, or wick, to give light by means of oil: (Mgh, Msb:) and it is said in a trad. respecting the several sorts of fat (شُحُوم) of carrion, بِهَا النَّاسُ ↓ يَسْتَصْبِحُ The people [employ them as means of light; or] make their lamps, or wicks, to give light by means of them. (TA.) 10 إِسْتَصْبَحَ see the next preceding paragraph, in four places.11 إِصْبَاْحَّ see 1, last sentence but one.

صُبْحٌ (S, A, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ صَبَاحٌ (Msb, K) and ↓ صَبِيحَةٌ (Msb, * K) and ↓ إِصْبَاحٌ and ↓ مُصْبَحٌ (K [or perhaps the last should be مَصْبَحٌ, q. v.]) Daybreak, or dawn; syn. فَجْرٌ; (S, A, Msb, K;) i. e. (so in the Msb, but in the K “ or ”) the beginning, or first part, of day: (Msb, K:) ↓ إِصْبَاحٌ is an inf. n. [inf. n. of أَصْبَحَ] used in the sense of صُبْح, in the Kur vi. 96, (Jel,) and is similar to إِبْكَارٌ; (TA;) [and ↓ مُصْبَحٌ is the n. of place and time from أَصْبَحَ:] the pl. of صُبْحٌ is أَصْبَاحٌ; (K;) and thus some read in the Kur vi. 96. (Bd.) See also أَصْبَحُ. One says, أَتَيْتُهُ لِصُبْحِ خَامِسَةٍ and خامسة ↓ لِصِبْحِ, (S, K,) meaning [I came to him] in the morning (صَبَاح) [of the last] of five days; (K;) i. e., of a fifth day; (TK;) [or rather, of a fifth night, as the last word is fem.;] like as one says, لِمُِسْىِ خامسة. (S.) b2: الصُّبْحُ is also used as meaning (assumed tropical:) The truth; and the clear, or plain, thing or case. (Ham p. 449.) b3: And أُمُّ صُبْحٍ is one of the names of Mekkeh. (K, * TA.) صِبْحٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

(TA.) صُبْحَةٌ The early part of the forenoon, after sunrise; syn. ضُحًى; as also ↓ صَبْحَةٌ: (Msb:) or the period of one's entering upon the صَبَاح [which means both dawn and forenoon]: so in the saying, لَقِيتُهُ ذَاتَ صُبْحَةٍ [I met him when he was entering upon the dawn or forenoon]. (TA.) b2: And A sleep in the morning, or first part of day, before sunrise; as also ↓ صَبْحَةٌ; (S, * K;) or both signify a sleep in the ضُحَى [expl. above]; (A;) but the latter is by some disapproved: such sleep is forbidden in a trad., because it is in a time for the commemoration of the praises of God and then for seeking gain. (TA.) One says, فُلَانٌ يَنَامُ الصُّبْحَةَ and ↓ الصَّبْحَةَ [Such a one sleeps in the first part of day, before sunrise]. (S.) b3: and Food with which one contents, or diverts, himself [so as to allay the craving of his stomach], in the morning or first part of day, before sunrise. (K.) b4: See also صَبُوحٌ.

A2: Also (Suh, K, TA,) and ↓ صَبَحٌ, (Lth, S, TA,) [each said in one place in the K to be an inf. n. of which the verb is صَبِحَ,] Blackness inclining to redness: (K:) or intense redness in the hair: (Lth, TA:) or a colour inclining to that which is termed صُهْبَة: (K, TA:) or nearly the same as صُهْبَة: (Lth, * S, * TA:) or a colour inclining to that termed شُهْبَة: (K, TA:) or whiteness that is not clear, or pure; so the former is expl. by Suh. (TA. [See also أَصَبَحُ.]) صَبْحَانُ A man who has drunk a morningdraught, or what is termed a صَبُوح; (TA;) or who has done so, and satisfied his thirst thereby: (Aboo-'Adnán, TA:) [in the S and K it is implied that it is syn. with مُصْطَبِحٌ, q. v.:] fem.

صَبْحَى. (S, TA.) Hence the prov., أَكْذَبُ مِنَ الأَخِيذِ الصَّبْحَانِ (Aboo-'Adnán, S, TA) More lying than the captive who had satisfied his thirst with a morning-draught: (Aboo-'Adnán, TA:) the person thus alluded to was a man who was among a people that gave him a morning-draught, after which he arose and quitted them, and was taken by another people, who said to him, “ Guide us to the place where thou wast; ” to which he replied, “I have passed the night in the bare desert: ” but presently he sat down to make water, so they knew that he had passed the night with a people near by; and by his means they found their way to them, and exterminated them: (IAar, TA:) or the prov. is أَكْذَبُ مِنَ الأَخِدِ الصَّبْحَانِ More lying than the young unweaned camel that has satisfied its thirst with drinking [its mother's milk in the morning]; which [seems to be thirsty but] will not drink of its mother's milk when one desires it to do so: (IAar, Sh, TA:) or, accord. to Fr, than the young unweaned camel that is affected with indigestion, or heaviness of the stomach, from drinking much milk, and therefore craves for milk again. (Meyd. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov.: he seems to have followed a faulty text.]) b2: Also the fem., صَبْحَى, A she-camel that has been milked [app. in the morning]. (Meyd, in his Proverbs, under the letter ص; and TA.) A2: See also صَبِيحٌ.

صَبَحَانٌ A man who hastens to take the morning-draught, or what is termed the صَبُوح. (K.) صَبَاحٌ: see صُبْحٌ. b2: Also (Msb) Contr. of مَسَآءٌ, (S, A, Msb,) and so ↓ صَبِيحَةٌ, (S,) [and ↓ أُصْبُوحَةٌ (as in a phrase following in this paragraph), and ↓ مَصْبَحٌ, (see this last word,)] i. e. Morning, or forenoon, counted from sunrise to noon: (Msb and TA in art. مسو:) or, accord. to some, from midnight to noon: (TA in art. مسو:) or, accord. to the Arabs, from the beginning of the latter half of the night to the time when the sun declines from the meridian; then commences the مَسَآء, extending to the end of the former half of the night; thus expl. by Th; so says El-Jawá- leekee. (Msb.) The Arabs say, when they regard a man, &c., as ominous of evil, صَبَاحُ اللّٰهِ لَا صَبَاحُكَ [God's morning: not thy morning]: and if you will, you may say, صَبَاحَ اللّٰهِ لَا صَبَاحَكَ. (Lh, TA.) And عِمْ صَبَاحًا, (S,) or عِمُوا صَبَاحًا, (K,) lit. imperative, but meaning a prayer, i. e. May thy life, or your life, be pleasant during the morning, (Har p. 32, and TA * in arts. نعم and وعم,) is a salutation of the people of the Time of Ignorance. (TA.) One says also, لَقِيتُهُ صَبَاحًا, and ذَا صَبَاحٍ, (S,) or أَتَيْتُهُ ذَا صَبَاحٍ, (K,) which [i. e. ذا صباح] is only used adverbially, (Sb, S, K,) except in the dial. of Khath'am, (Sb, S,) meaning [I met him, or I came to him,] in a morning, [or] between daybreak and sunrise: (K:) the following verse (S, TA) by Anas Ibn-Nuheyk, of Khath'am, (TA,) or, as some say, by Iyás Ibn-Mudrikeh El-Hanafee, (so in a marg. note in a copy of the S,) presents an exception to the adverbial usage: عَزَمْتُ عَلَى إِقَامَةِ ذِى صَبَاحٍ

لِأَمْرٍ مَّا يُسَوَّدُ مَنْ يَسُودُ (S, TA:) the poet means, I determined to stay until the time of the صباح [i. e. either dawn or forenoon]: for it is on account of some particular thing, i. e. some good quality, or some praiseworthy thing, that he is made a chief who becomes a chief: thus Ibn-Es-Seeráfee explains this verse. (TA.) And one says, ↓ أَتَيْتُهُ ذَا صَبُوحٍ, not used otherwise than adverbially, meaning the same as ذَا صَبَاحٍ, expl. above; (K;) and ↓ ذَاتَ الصَّبُوحِ in the morning, or first part of day, before sunrise: (IAar, TA:) or ↓ ذَا صَبُوحٍ [properly means] in a time of drinking the [morning-draught called]

صَبُوح. (TA.) And يَوْمِ كَذَا ↓ أَتَيْتُهُ صَبِيحَةَ [I came to him in the dawn, or in the morning, or forenoon, of such a day]: (A:) and ↓ أُصْبُوحَةَ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ [in the morning of every day]; and in like manner, أُمْسِيَّةَ كُلِّ يَوْمٍ. (S.) And أَتَيْتُهُ صَبَاحَ مَسَآءَ, (Sb, A, TA,) for صَبَاحًا وَمَسَآءً, [I came to him morning and evening,] meaning every morning and evening: (Sharh esh-Shudhoor, p.

31:) the two nouns are thus constructed by some of the Arabs, after the manner of خَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ: but some prefix the former noun to the other, putting the latter in the gen. case, except when the expression is used as a denotative of state, or adverbially: (TA:) [or, accord. to IHsh,] صَبَاحَ مَسَآءٍ is allowable as [an adverbial expression] meaning صَبَاحَ ذَا مَسَآءٍ [lit. in a morning having an evening, or in a forenoon having an afternoon]; and a similar instance occurs in the Kur, ch. lxxix. last verse. (Sharh esh-Shudhoor, ubi suprà.) b3: يَوْمُ الصَّبَاحِ means (tropical:) The day of the hostile, or predatory, incursion. (S, A, K.) The Arabs, when suddenly attacked in the morning by a troop of horsemen, cry aloud, يَا صَبَاحَاهْ (assumed tropical:) [O! a hostile, or predatory, incursion!]; warning the whole tribe: (TA:) this is said by him who calls for aid: (JM:) for they generally made a hostile, or predatory, incursion in the morning: (TA, JM:) or, as some say, the two conflicting parties used, when night came, to abstain; and when day returned, they recommenced; so that the case is as though he who said thus meant, The time of the صَبَاح [or morning] has come, therefore prepare yourselves for fighting. (JM.) صُبَاحٌ The شُعلَة [or lighted wick] of a قِنْدِيل [or lamp]. (K.) [See also مِصْبَاحٌ.]
