(TA.) b3: سَمَا الهِلَالُ The moon near the change rose مُرْتَفِعًا [app. meaning upreared, not decumbent: see أَدْفَقُ]. (TA.) b4: [سَمَا لَهُ or نَحْوَهُ He rose, and betook himself, to, or towards, him, or it. Hence,] مَاسَمَوْتُ لَكُمْ I will not [or (unless the phrase be an apodosis) I did not] rise and hasten to fight you. (TA.) b5: سَمَا بَصَرَهُ His sight, or eye, rose, or became raised. (S, TA.) [And سَمَاطَرْفُهُ lit. signifies the same; but means (assumed tropical:) His look was lofty; or he was proud: see سَامٍ, below.] b6: سَمَا is also said of him who is termed حَسِيبٌ and شَرِيفٌ [i. e. it signifies He was, or became, noble; or high, or exalted, in rank].

(TA.) b10: سَمَوْا, (S, K, TA,) and ↓ استموا, (S,) They went forth to pursue the animals of the chase (S, K, TA) in their deserts: (TA:) [or] one says of the hunter, or sportsman, يَسْمُو الوَحْشَ, and ↓ يَسْتَمِيهَا, meaning he sees, or looks to see, (يَتَعَيَّنُ,) the coming forth of the wild animals, and pursues them.

A3: See also 2.2 سمّاهُ فُلَانًا and بِفُلَانٍ, (S, M, Msb, K,) accord. to Sb originally with ب, but Lh says that the former is that which is usual, (M,) [inf. n. تَسْمِيَةٌ,] and in like manner ↓ اسماهُ, (S,) i. e. اسماهُ فُلَانًا and بِفُلَانٍ, (M, K,) and accord. to Th, فُلَانًا ↓ سَمَاهُ and بِفُلَانٍ, (K, [in the correct copies of which the form of the verb first mentioned is without teshdeed, while in the CK the first and last are both alike with teshdeed, or, as is said in the M, Th has mentioned سَمَوْتُهُ, but none other has mentioned it,]) He named him, or called him, Such a one; (S, M, Msb, K;) as Zeyd; i. e., he made Zeyd to be his name, his proper name. (Msb.) b2: [One says also, سمّى اللّٰهَ عَلَى شَىْءٍ, or simply سمّى عَلَيْهِ, which is the more common, meaning He pronounced the name of God, saying بِسْمِ اللّٰهِ (In the name of God), upon, or over, a thing; such as food, and an animal about to be slaughtered.] The Prophet said, سَمُّوا وَسَمِّتُوا وَدَنُّوا, [cited, with some variations, and expl., in arts.

دنو and سمت,] meaning سَمُّوا اللّٰهَ [Pronounce ye the name of God, &c.]; i. e. whenever ye eat, [before ye begin to do so, accord. to the general custom, or] between two mouthfuls. (M.) 3 ساماهُ, (S, M, K, TA,) inf. n. مُسَامَاةٌ, (TA,) He vied, competed, or contended for superiority, in highness, loftiness, or eminence, or in glory, or excellence, [or in an absolute sense,] with him; syn. عَالَاهُ, (M,) or فَاخَرَهُ, and بَارَاهُ. (K.) It is said in the trad. respecting the lie [against 'Áïsheh], لَمْ تَكُنِ امْرَأَةٌ تُسَامِيهَا غَيْرُ زَيْنَبَ, meaning There was not any woman that vied with her in eminence (تُفَاخِرُهَا and تُعَالِيهَا) except Zeyneb; المُسَامَاةُ meaning المُطَاوَلَةُ فِى الحُِظْوَةِ. (TA.) and one says, فُلَانٌ لَا يُسَامَى وَقَدْ عَلَا مَنْ سَامَاهُ [Such a one will not be vied with in highness, &c.: and he has overcome him who vied with him, &c.]. (S.) And إِنَّ أَمَامِى مَا لَا أُسَامِى, said when one fears an affair, or event, before him; on the authority of IAar; meaning [Verily before me is an affair, or event,] with which I cannot vie. (M.) A poet cited by Th says, بَاتَ ابْنُ أَدْمَآءَ يُسَامِى الأَنْدَرَا سَامَى طَعَامَ الحَىِّ حَتَّى نَوَّرَا and he says that سَامَى means اِرْتَفَعَ, and صَعِدَ; but [it seems that the verse should be rendered, Ibn-Admà passed the night aspiring to reach the heap of reaped wheat: he aspired to attain the wheat of the tribe until it attained to maturity: for ISd says,] in my opinion he means, as the seed-produce rose by growth, he rose to it, until it attained to maturity, when he reaped it and stole it: and he cites also the saying, فَارْفَعْ يَدَيْكَ ثُمَّ سَامِ الحَنْجَرَا [And raise thy hands, then endeavour to reach the windpipe]; explaining سَامِ الحَنْجَرَ as meaning raise thy hands to his حَلْق [or throat, properly, fauces]. (M.) 4 اسماهُ He raised, upraised, uplifted, upreared, exalted, or elevated, him, or it; as also بِهِ ↓ سَمَا [lit. he rose, &c., with him, or it]. (M, K.) b2: أَسْمَيْتُهُ مِنْ بَلَدٍ I made him to go up, or away, from a town, or country. (TA.) b3: اسمانا, (TA,) or ↓ اِسْتَمَانَا, (M,) He, or it, incited us to hunt, or chase: so says Th. (M, TA.) A2: Also He looked at, or towards, his, or its سَمَاوَة [expl. immediately before the mention of this phrase in the M as meaning the form, or figure, seen from a distance, and the aspect, of anything]. (M, TA.) A3: And اسمى He (a man) took the direction of, (S,) or came to, (M,) Es-Semáweh (السَّمَاوَة, S, M) a certain water in the desert (البَادِيَة, M) or a place between El-Koofeh and Syria, (K,) a well-known desert. (TA.) A4: See also 2.5 تسمّى [expl. by Golius, first, as meaning Altus fuit, eminuit; like سَمَا; but for this he names no authority, and I find none for it.

A2: ] He named himself. (KL.) b2: تسمّى بِزَيْدٍ He was named Zeyd: (S, * M, * Msb, K: *) تسمّى

بِكَذَا means Such a thing became his name: it is quasi-pass. of سَمَّاهُ and أَسْمَاهُ. (TA.) b3: and تسمّى بِبَنِى فُلَانٍ, (M,) or بِالقَوْمِ, (K,) and إِلَيْهِمْ, (M, K,) He asserted his relationship to the sons of such a one [by the assumption of a name of relationship to them], or to the people.

(TA.) b3: and تساموا They vied, competed, or contended for superiority, [in highness, loftiness, or eminence, or in glory, or excellence, or in an absolute sense, (see 3,)] one with another. (S, K.) A2: and تساموا signifies also They called one another by their names. (TA.) 8 استمى He (a hunter, or sportsman, [الصّاعِدُ in the CK being a mistranscription for الصَّائِدُ,]) attired himself with the socks, or stockings, called مِسْمَاة, (M, K, TA,) to protect himself from the heat of the burning ground, (TA,) for the hunting of gazelles, in the time of heat. (M.) and (M, in the K “ or ”) استماهُ He asked of him the loan of the socks, or stockings, above named, for that purpose, (M, K, *) i. e. for the hunting of gazelles at midday. (TA.) And استمى, (M, CK,) or استمى الظِّبَآءَ, (so in some copies of the K and in the TA,) He sought, or pursued, the gazelles in their caves, or hiding-places, (فَى غِيرَانِهَا, M, and so in copies of the K, by the غِيرَان being meant the كُنُس, M,) or in what was not their time, or season, (فِى غَيْرِ انِهَا, thus in some copies of the K,) at the auroral rising of Canopus (سُهَيْل [which rose aurorally, in Central Arabia, about the commencement of the era of the Flight, on the 4th of August, O. S.]): (M, K:) so says IAar. (M.) [Freytag says, on the authority of scholia to the Deewán of Jereer, as follows: In the time of the greatest heat, they drive out a wild animal repeatedly from its hiding-place, permitting it to return thither at night, when, thus disturbed, it does not issue from its place; in order that they may be able to strike it.] b2: And He hunted, or chased, wild animals. (M.) b3: See also 1, latter part, in two places. b4: and see 4.

A2: اِسْتَمَيْتُهُ also signifies I made him the object of a visit: or I perceived in him good, or goodness, by a right opinion formed from its outward signs. (K.) b2: And استماهُ He chose it, took it in preference, or selected it. (IAar, L voce اِقْتَرَحَ.) b3: And IAar mentions the saying, البَكْرَةُ مِنَ الإِبِلِ تُسْتَمَى بَعْدَ أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً أَوْبَعْدَ إِحْدَى وَعِشْرِينَ, as meaning [The youthful she-camel] is tested for the purpose of discovering whether or not she be pregnant [after fourteen nights or after one and twenty]: but Th disallows this, and says that the word is تُسْتَمْنَى, from المُنْيَةُ, which means “ the period by the end of which one knows whether or not the she-camel is pregnant. ” (M.) 10 استسمى [or استسمى فُلَانًا, the word فلانا having app. been inadvertently omitted by a copyist,] He asked, or demanded, his [or such a one's] name. (TA.) سِمٌ and سُمٌ and سَمٌ: see اِسْمٌ, in three places, near the beginning of the paragraph; and in four places near the end of the same.

سَمَآءٌ The higher, or upper, or highest, or uppermost, part of anything: [in this sense] masc. (M.) b2: [In its predominant acceptation,] a word of well-known meaning; (K, TA;) i. e. (TA) [The sky, or heaven;] the canopy of the earth: (M, Msb, TA:) in this sense (M, Msb) masc. and fem.; (IAmb, S, M, Msb, K; *) sometimes fem.; (M;) rarely so, and thus as having the next but one of the significations here following: (Fr, Msb:) Az says that it is fem. because it is pl. [or coll. gen. n.] of سَمَآءَةٌ: (TA:) or it is as though it were pl. of ↓ سَمَاوَةٌ, [or rather its coll. gen. n.,] like as سَحَابٌ is of سَحَابَةٌ: (Msb, TA:) Er-Rághib says that the سَمَآء as opposed to the أَرْض is fem., and sometimes masc.; and is used as a sing. and as a pl.; as the latter in the Kur ii. 27 [where it is shown to apply to seven heavens]; and that it is like نَخْلٌ and شَجَرٌ and other [coll.] gen. ns.: (TA:) in this sense (M) the pl. is أَسْمِيَةٌ [a pl. of pauc.] (S, M, K) and سُمِىٌّ, (M, K,) the latter [originally سُمُوىٌ] of the measure فُعُولٌ, and both [also] pls. of سَمَآءٌ in another sense, mentioned in what follows, (TA,) and سَمَاوَاتٌ or سَمٰوَاتٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) and accord. to the K, [in which all of these are mentioned as though pls. of سَمَآءٌ in all its senses,] ↓ سَمًا, [in the CK سُمًا,] but in the M سَمَآءٌ [like the sing., as mentioned above], where it is said that it must be a pl. in the Kur ii. 27 for the reason already stated, as though pl. of سَمَآءَةٌ or سَمَاوَةٌ; (TA;) and a poet assigns to سَمَآءٌ the anomalous pl. سَمَآءٍ, by his saying, سَمَآءُ الْإِلٰهِ فَوْقَ سَبْعِ سَمَآئِيَا [The heaven of God, above seven heavens]: (S, M:) the dim. is ↓ سُمّيَّةٌ. (Ham p. 452.) b3: and Any canopy, or covering over-head, of a person. (S, Msb, * TA.) b4: And hence, (S, TA,) The ceiling, or roof, (S, Msb, K, TA,) of a house, or chamber, or tent, (S, K, TA,) and of anything; (K, TA;) in this sense masc.; (Msb, TA;) and ↓ سَمَاوَةٌ also has this meaning. (S.) b5: And The رِوَاق, (M, K,) i. e. the شُقَّة [or oblong piece of cloth] that is beneath the upper, or uppermost, شُقَّةٌ, (M,) of a بَيْت [or tent]; (M, K;) in which sense it is fem., and sometimes masc.; (M;) as also ↓ سَمَاوَةٌ; (M, K;) [and so, app., ↓ سِمَايَةٌ; for] one says, أَصْلَحَ سِمَايَتَهُ, with kesr, [He repaired his سماية,] meaning, his سَمَاوَة. (TA.) b6: And The clouds; (Zj, K;) because of their height: (Zj, TA:) or a cloud. (Msb.) b7: and Rain; (S, M, Msb, K;) because it comes forth from the سَمَآء [i. e. sky or clouds]: (TA:) or a good rain (مَطْرَةٌ جَيِّدَةٌ): (K, TA:) or a new rain (مَطْرَةٌ جَدِيدَةٌ): (T, TA:) or, as some say, rain that has not fallen upon the earth; so called in consideration of what has been said above [of its meaning the “ clouds ” &c.]: (Er-Rághib, TA:) [but] one says, مَا زِلْنَا نَطَأُ السَّمَآءَ حَتَّى

أَتَيْنَاكُمْ [We ceased not to tread upon the rain until we came to you]: (S, TA:) applied to rain, it is masc., and fem. also because of its connexion with the سَمَآء that canopies the earth; (M;) or it is fem., as meaning سَحَابَةٌ: (Msb:) the pl. [of mult.] is سُمِىٌّ (S, M, Msb, TA) and [of pauc.]

أَسْمِيَةٌ. (S, TA.) بَنُو مَآءِ السَّمَآءِ is an appellation of The Arabs; [signifying the sons of the water of the heaven;] because of their keeping much to the deserts which are the places of the falling of rain [by means of which they subsist]: or by مَآء السمآء is meant Zemzem, which God made to well forth for the Arabs, who are therefore like the sons thereof. (TA.) b8: [Hence, app., as being likened to rain by reason of the swiftness of his running,] a certain horse, (M, K,) belonging to Sakhr the brother of El-Khansà, (M,) was named السَّمَآءُ. (M, K.) b9: [Hence, likewise, as being likened to rain, (assumed tropical:) Bounty.] One says, أَصَابَنِى بِرَشْحَةٍ مِنْ سَمَائِهِ (assumed tropical:) [He gave me a gift from his store of bounty].

(S, M, TA.) b3: A like, or an equal: (S, M, K TA:) and this meaning the word, in the accus. case, is said by some to have in the Kur xix. 8: or in this instance it has the meaning here following.

El-'Ajjáj says, سَمَآوَةُ الهِلَالِ حَتَّى احْقَوْقَفَا [The form, &c., of the moon when near the change, until it became curved]. (S.) سِمَايَةٌ: see سَمَآءٌ, in the middle of the paragraph.

سَمَآئِىٌّ and سَمَاوِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, the sky or heaven; heavenly; celestial;] rel. ns. from سَمَآءٌ. (Msb, TA.) سَامٍ [High, or lofty; as also ↓ سَمِىٌّ: pl. of the former سَوَامٍ; applied to women as pl. of سَامِيَةٌ, whence the phrase سَوَامِى الطَّرْفِ in a verse cited voce بُضْعٌ; and to irrational animals, as in an instance here following]. One says القُرُومُ السَّوَامِى

The stallions [meaning the stallion-camels high in their heads, or] raising their heads high. (S, TA.) And سَامِيَاتٌ, [pl. of سَامِيَةٌ,] applied to camels, That raise, or raise high, their eyes and their heads. (Ham p. 791.) And رَدَدْتُ مِنْ سَامِى

(M.) اِسْمٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) with the conjunctive ا, [i. e. written اسْمٌ,] but this is made disjunctive by poetic license [as well as when the word commences a sentence], (S,) usually with kesr [when the | is disjunctive], (Lh, M, TA,) and اُسْمٌ, (S, M, K,) of the dial. of Benoo-'Amr-Ibn-Temeem and of Kudá'ah, (M, TA,) mentioned by IAar, (TA,) and ↓ سِمٌ and ↓ سُمٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ سَمٌ, (K,) and ↓ سُمًا (M, K) and ↓ سِمًا and ↓ سَمًا, (K,) [The name of a thing; i. e.] a sign [such as may be uttered or written] conveying knowledge of a thing; syn. عَلَامَةٌ: and a word applied to denote a substance or an accident or attribute, for the purpose of distinction: (M, K:) [or a substantive in the proper sense of this term, i. e. a real substantive; and a substance in a tropical sense of this term, i. e. an ideal substantive:] as expl. by El-Munáwee, in the “ Towkeef,” the اسم is that which denotes a meaning in itself unconnected with any of the three times [past and present and future]: if denoting what subsists by itself, it is termed اِسْمُ عَيْنٍ; and if denoting what does not subsist by itself, [i. e. an accident or attribute,] whether existent, as العِلْمُ [i. e. knowledge], or non-existent, as الجَهْلُ [i. e. ignorance], it is termed اِسْمُ مَعْنًى: (TA:) the pl. is أَسْمَآءٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and أَسْمَاوَاتٌ, (S, M, K,) the latter said by Lh to be a pl. of اِسْمٌ, but it is rather a pl. of أَسْمَآءٌ, for otherwise there is no way of accounting for it, (M,) and أَسَامٍ (S, M, K) and أَسَامِىُّ (M, K) are [likewise] pls. of أَسْمَآءٌ: (K, * TA:) the word اسْمٌ [i. e. اِسْمٌ or اُسْمٌ] is derived from سَمَوْتُ, (S, TA,) or from السُّمُوُّ, (Msb, Er-Rághib, TA,) because the اسم is a means of raising into notice the thing denoted thereby, and making it known: (S, * Er-Rághib, TA:) it is of the measure اِفْعٌ [or اُفْعٌ, accord. to different dialects], the last radical, و, being wanting in it, (S, Msb, TA,) and the hemzeh [or rather |] being prefixed by way of compensation for it, accord to a general rule; (Msb, TA;) for it is originally سِمْوٌ (S, Msb, Er-Rághib, TA) or سُمْوٌ, (S, Msb, TA,) its pl. being أَسْمَآءٌ, and its dim. being ↓ سُمَىٌّ [originally سَمَيْوٌ]: (S, Msb, Er-Rághib, * TA:) some of the Koofees hold that it is from الوَسْمُ, meaning العَلَامَةُ, the و, which is the primal radical, being rejected, and the hemzeh [or |] being substituted for it, so that its measure is اِعْلٌ [or اُعْلٌ]; but this is a weak opinion, for, were it so, the dim. would be وَسَيْمٌ and the pl. would be أَوْسَامٌ. (Msb, TA.) One says, اِسْمُ هٰذَا كَذَا [The name of this is thus, or such a word]; and if you will you may say, اُسْمُ هٰذا كذا; and in like manner, ↓ سِمُهُ and ↓ سُمُهُ: Lh says that اِسْمُهُ فُلَانٌ [His name is Such a one] is the [common] phrase of the Arabs; and he mentions اُسْمُهُ فُلَانٌ as heard from [the tribe of] Benoo-'Amr-Ibn-Temeem: and Ks cites, as heard from some of [the tribe of] Benoo-Kudá'ah, the saying, ↓ بِاسْمِ الَّذِى فِى كُلِّ سُورَةٍ سُمُهْ [In the name of Him whose name is in every chapter of the Kur-án], and ↓ سِمُهْ as heard from others, not of Kudá'ah. (M.) سِرْ عَلَى اسْمِ اللّٰهِ is an elliptical phrase [for سِرْ مُعْتَمِدًا عَلَى ذِكْرِ اسْمِ اللّٰهِ Journey thou relying upon the mention of the name of God]. (IJ, M in art. دل: see دَلِيلٌ.) b2: [Hence,] اسْمٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) Fame, renown, report, or reputation, of a person: (TA:) and so ↓ سُمًا, in relation to good, (K, TA,) not to evil; mentioned by Az. (TA.) One says, ذَهَبَ اسْمُهُ فِى النَّاسِ, i. e. His fame &c. [went, or spread, among mankind, or the people]. (TA.) اِسْمِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, a name or noun or substantive;] rel. n. from اِسْمٌ; as also ↓ سِمَوِىٌّ and ↓ سُمَوِىٌّ. (S, TA.) [Hence, جُمْلَةٌ اسْمِيَّةٌ A nominal proposition or phrase; as distinguished from فِعْليَّةٌ, or verbal.]

اِسْمِيَّةٌ The quality of a name or noun or substantive.]

مِسْمَاةٌ The socks, or stockings, worn by a hunter, (M, K, TA,) to protect him from the heat of the burning ground. (TA.) مُسَمًّى [Named]. b2: [Hence,] one says, هُوَ مِنْ مُسَمَّى قَوْمِهِ and مُسَمَّاتِهِمْ, meaning (assumed tropical:) He is of the best of his people or party. (TA.) مُسَامٍ: see سَمِىٌّ.

A2: طَرَا, [aor. ـْ inf. n. طُرُوٌّ, (K,) or, as written in the M, طَرْوٌ, (TA,) He came from a distant place: (K:) you say طَرَا عَلَيْهِمْ he came, or, accord. to Lth, he came forth, upon them from a distant place: or, accord. to Az, he came upon them without their knowledge: it is a dial. var. of طَرَأَ [q. v.].

(TA.) b3: And طَرِىَ, aor. ـْ (IAar, K,) in which, accord. to the K, the last radical letter is ى, [not و changed into ى by reason of the kesreh before it,] but ISd says that there in no word of which the radical letters are ط and ر and ى, (TA,) He advanced, or came forward: or he passed, passed by, went, or went away.

(TA.) b3: And He plastered, or coated, a building with clay, or mud: of the dial. of Mekkeh. (Z, TA.) 4 اطراهُ He praised him; thus in the S, and in like manner expl. by Zbd and IKtt; (TA;) and thus اطرأهُ [with ء] is expl. by Es-Sarakustee: (Msb:) he eulogized, or commended, him; (K;) thus in the M; (TA;) and thus it is expl. by Es-Sarakustee: (Msb:) or he praised him renewing the mention of him: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or he praised him exceedingly: (AA, TA:) or he praised him for the best of the qualities that he possessed; (Msb, TA;) thus expl. by IF, and in like manner by Z: (TA:) or he praised him for that which was not in him: (Az, TA:) or he praised him greatly, or extravagantly; exceeded the just, or usual, bounds in praising him: (Msb:) or, accord. to Hr and IAth, he exceeded the just, or usual bounds in praising him, and lied therein.

الطَّرَا [without the article طَرًا] What is not of the nature of the earth; (K;) or whatever is upon the surface of the earth, of such things as are not of the nature of the earth, consisting of pebbles; or small pebbles; [and the like;] and dust and the like: (TA:) and, (K, TA,) as some say, (TA,) the sorts of created things whereof the number cannot be reckoned; (K, TA;) or any created things whereof the number and the sorts cannot be reckoned. (TA.) One says, هُمْ أَكْثَرُ مِنَ الطَّرَى وَالثَّرَى [or الطَّرَا والَثَّرَا i. e. They are more in number, or quantity, than the pebbles, &c., and than the moist earth]. (TA.) طَرِىٌّ Fresh, juicy, or moist: (S, Msb, K, TA:) and طَرِىْءٌ is a dial. var. thereof. (Msb.) It is expl. as meaning thus in the Kur [xvi. 44 and] xxxv. 13 [as an epithet applied to the flesh of fish]. (TA.) And الطَّرِيَّانِ [used as a subst.] means Fish and fresh ripe dates. (A, TA.) b2: Also Strange, or a stranger; syn. غَرِيبٌ: and AA has mentioned ↓ رَجُلٌ طَارِىٌّ, [said to be] with teshdeed, [otherwise I should think it might be a mistranscription for طَارِئٌ,] as meaning a man that is a stranger. (TA.) طِرِيَّانٌ, with two kesrehs, and with the ى musheddedeh, The خِوَان [or table] upon which one eats; thus accord. to ISk: or, accord. to IAar, the طَبَق [i. e. dish, or plate]: occurring in a trad.; as some relate it, thus; and as others relate it, طِرِّيَان, with the ر musheddedeh, like صِلِّيَان; [and thus it is mentioned in the O and K in art. طر;] but Fr says that this latter is of the dial. of the vulgar. (TA.) طَارِىٌّ: see طَرِىٌّ.

إِطْرِيَةٌ A sort of food, called in Pers\. لَا خِشَهْ; (S;) [i. e.] a certain food, like threads, made of flour; (K, TA;) an explanation necessarily implying that it is what is called in Egypt غَزْلُ البَنَاتِ: accord. to Sh, a thing made of softened starch; and said by Lth to be a food made by the people of Syria; a word having no n. un.; and what these two say indicates that it is what is called كُنَافَة: Lth and Z mention the word as pronounced also with fet-h; but Az says that the pronunciation with fet-h is incorrect. (TA.) أُطْرُوَانٌ The first stage, and the quickness, (غُلَوَآء, in the CK [erroneously] غُلُوّ,) of youth: (K, TA:) like عُنْفُوَانٌ in measure and in meaning. (TA.)

فَرْوٌ signifies A certain thing that is worn; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ فَرْوَةٌ: (Msb:) each of these is a word of well-known meaning: (M:) [but the former is properly a coll. gen. n., and ↓ فَرْوَةٌ is its n. un.; agreeably with what here follows:] الفَرْوُ is well known [as being fur]; and ↓ فَرْوَةٌ is the appellation applied when it is [a furred garment] like the جُبِّة: (Lth, T:) and signifies also a skin, but not unless having upon it وَبَر [i. e. fur, or soft hair,] or wool: (T:) [in general,] this latter word signifies, (K, TA,) and some say the former also, (TA,) a kind of garment, well known, (K, TA,) lined with the skins of various species of animals, the most highly esteemed whereof is the سَمَّور [or sable], tanned, and sewed together; this garment being worn for preservation from the cold: (TA:) فِرَآءٌ is the pl. (S, M, Msb, TA) of mult., and the pl. of pauc. is أَفْرٍ: so says Aboo-'Alee El-Kálee. (TA.) فَرْوَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places. b2: Also The scalp, or skin of the head: (S, Msb, K:) or فَرْوَةُ الرَّأْسِ signifies the scalp, or skin of the head, with the hair thereof, (Lth, T, M, Mgh,) of a man, and of other than man: (M:) or the upper part of the head: (M, TA:) and one says, ضَرَبَهُ عَلَى أُمِّ فَرْوَتِهِ meaning [He struck him upon] his هَامَة [crown, &c.]. (TA.) [Hence,] it is metaphorically applied, in a trad., to (tropical:) The skin of the face. (TA.) b3: and (tropical:) A woman's [head-covering such as is called]

خِمَار, (Mgh, K, TA,) or [such as is called] قِنَاع; occurring in a trad.; (Mgh, TA;) metaphorically applied thereto.

(TA.) b5: and A [garment of the kind called] جُبَّة of which the two sleeves have been tucked up. (K.) b6: and The half of a [garment such as is called] كِسَآء

(TA.) b7: and A [bag such as is termed] وَفْضَة [q. v.], (K, TA,) [i. e.] like the خَرِيطَة, made of skin, (TA,) in which the beggar puts his alms. (K, TA.) and hence, (TA,) ذُو الفَرْوَة means The beggar. (K, TA.) b8: And A portion of herbage collected together and dry. (S, K.) b9: And Waste, or uncultivated, land, having in it no herbage (T, K) and no بَرَش [or maculæ, or spots differing in colour from the rest]. (T.) b10: أَبُو فَرْوَةٍ signifies The بَلُّوط [here meaning chestnut, which is called in Egypt ابو فروة in the present day]; of the dial. of Egypt: it is thus called because within its husk is what resembles the soft hair of camels. (TA.) A2: Also i. q. ثَرْوَةٌ, (Fr, As, ISk, T, S, M, Msb, K,) and غِنًى; (S, K;) [i. e. Abundance, and richness &c.;] accord. to Yaakoob [i. e. ISk], (M,) formed from ثَرْوَةٌ by substitution (S, M) of ف for ث: (M:) one says, إِنَّهُ لَذُو ثَرْوَةٍ مِنَ المَالِ and فَرْوَةٍ, both meaning the same [i. e. Verily he is a possessor of abundance of property]; (T, S; [in some copies of the latter, فِى المَالِ;]) so says ISk, (T,) or Fr; (S;) and As says the like: (S:) the latter says, فُلَانٌ ذُو فَرْوَةٍ and ثَرْوَةٍ, meaning Such a one is a possessor of abundant property.

بد

أ1 بَدَأَ بِهِ, (T, S, M, &c.,) aor. ـَ (Mgh, K,) inf. n. بَدْءٌ, (T, S, M, Msb,) i. q. به ↓ ابتدأ; (S, Msb, K;) [He began with it;] he made it to have precedence, or to be first; gave precedence to it; syn. قَدَّمَهُ: (Mgh, Msb:) in the dial. of the Ansár, بَدِئَ به is used in this sense of قدّمه; (M;) or بَدِىَ به [without ء]; (IKtt, TA; [see بَدةءٌ;]) [and بَدَى به; see art. بدى;] and به ↓ ابدأ signifies the same. (Msb.) [So in the Kur xii. 76, فَبَدَأَ بِأَوْعِيَتِهِمْ قَبْلَ وِعَآءِ أَخِيهِ And he began with their bags, before the bags of his brother. and بَدَأَهُ is sometimes used in the sense of بَدَأَ بِهِ; whence, in the Kur ix. 13, وَهُمْ بَدَؤُوكُمْ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ

And they, it was, began with you the first time; i. e., as Bd says, by acting with hostility, and fighting.] You say also, بَدَّا ثُمَّ عَادَ He began, or did a first time, or the first time: then repeated, or did a second time. (Az, TA in art. عود.) and بَدَأَ فِىِ الأَمْرِ [He began, or made a beginning, in the affair.] (M.) b2: بَدَأَ also signifies It (a thing) began; began to be; originated; or came into existence. (Msb.) [See also 5.]

A2: بَدَأَ الشَّيْءَ, (S, M, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (M,) [He began the thing; commenced it; set about it; as also ↓ ابتدأهُ: accord. to the Mgh, the latter has this meaning, or, agreeably with the authority of the M and K, the meaning which here next follows:] he did the thing first, for the first time, by way of beginning, or originally; (S, M, K;) as also ↓ ابدأهُ and ↓ ابتدأهُ; (M, K;) i. e., not after the example of anything preceding. (TA. [But this addition seems rather to belong to another explanation to be mentioned below.]) One does not say, زَيْدًا ↓ ابتدأ nor بَدَأَهُ, because these two verbs [signifying as last explained above] do not have for their objects corporeal things. (Mgh.) [El-Mutanakhkhil El-Hudhalee uses the phrase سَأَبْدُؤُهُمْ بِمَشْمَعِةٍ I will begin with them (meaning his guests) by sporting and jesting; like the phrase in the Kur ix. 13 cited above: but different from these is the saying in the Kur xxxii. 6, وَبَدَأَ خَلْقِ الْإِنْسَانِ مِنْ طِينٍ And He began the creation of man from clay.] The saying, ↓ فَإِنْ كَانَ السَّبُعُ ابْتَدَأَهُ means ابتدأ أَخْذَهُ

أَوْ عَضَّهُ [But if the beast, or bird, of prey has begun the seizing of him, or the biting of him]; the noun that is prefixed [to the pronoun] being suppressed. (Mgh.) You say also, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى

الأَمْرِ ↓ ابْتِدَآءِ That was in the beginning, or first, of the affair. (Msb.) [See also بَدْءٌ, below.] b2: He originated the thing; brought it into being or existence; made it, or produced it, for the first time, it not having been before; (Mgh;) [and] so ↓ ابدأهُ, said [of God, and] of a man, as the agent; (Msb;) and ↓ ابتدأهُ. (Mgh in art. بدع.) [Hence,] بَدَأَ اللّٰهُ الخَلْقَ, and ↓ أَبْدَأَهُمْ, God created, or brought into existence, mankind, or the created beings: (M, Msb, K:) both signify the same. (S.) البَاطِلُ وَمَا يُعِيدُ ↓ مَا يُبْدِئُ [in the Kur xxxiv. 48, means What doth that which is false, or the Devil, originate, or produce in the first instance? and what doth it, or he, reproduce after it hath perished?]: Zj says that مَا, here, is in the place of an accus., meaning in each Instance أَىَّ شَىْءٍ: or it may be a negative; and الباطل here is Iblees; i. e., Iblees createth not, nor raiseth to life after death. (M.) You say also, وَمَا يُعِيدُ ↓ مَا يُبْدِئُ, meaning وَلَا ↓ مَا يَتَكَلَّمُ عَائِدَةٍ, (S, K,) i. e. He does not say anything for the first time, nor anything for the second time; or anything original, nor anything in the way of repetition; الكَلَامِ ↓ بَادِئَةُ signifying what is said for the first time; and عَائِدَةُ الكَلَامِ, what is said for the second time, afterwards: (TA:) or he says not anything: (A in art. عود:) and he has no art, artifice, or cunning. (IAar, TA in art. عود; and A in the present art.) b3: بَدَأَ البِئْرَ He dug the well [for the first time: see بَدِىْءٌ]. (Msb.) A3: بَدَأَ مِنْ أَرْضٍ إِلَى أَرْضٍ, (T,) or مِنْ أَرْضِهِ, (K,) He went forth from a land to a land, or from his land; as also ↓ ابدأ. (T, K.) A4: بُدِئَ, (inf. n. as above, S, M, K,) He (a man, S, M) had the small-pox: (Az, As, T, S, M, K:) or the حَصْبَة [i. e. measles, or spotted fever]: (S, M, K:) or, as Az says, and the حصبة: (T:) or, as Lh says, there came forth upon him pustules resembling the small-pox: but he adds, some say, the small-pox itself: (M:) the epithet applied to a person affected therewith is ↓ مَبْدُوْءٌ. (Az, As, Lh, T, S, M.) b2: Also He fell sick. (IAth, TA.) In a trad. of ' Áïsheh occur the words, فِى اليَوْمِ الَّذِى بُدِئَ فِيهِ رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ [meaning In the day in which the Apostle of God fell sick]: and IAth says, مَتَى بُدِئَ فُلَانٌ meaning When did such a one fall sick? is a phrase used in inquiring respecting the living [who has been attacked by illness] and respecting the dead. (TA.) 4 ابدأ: see 1, in seven places. b2: Also He did a new thing; a thing unknown before; or a strange, or wonderful, thing. (S, * TA.) b3: and He voided excrement, or ordure; or broke wind; syn. نَجَا; [as also أَبْدَى;] said of a man. (M.) b4: And He put forth his second teeth; said of a child; (M;) and of a colt. (TA voce أَحْفَرَ, q. v.) 5 تبدّأ He, or it, began, or made a beginning. (KL.) [See also 1. Golius mentions, but without giving the authority, and without the vowel-signs, the saying, هَاتِ القِصَّةَ مِنْ ذِى تُبُدِّئَتْ; but writing the last word تبديت, stating only that it is in the passive form; as meaning Relate thou the story, or history, from the beginning.]8 إِبْتَدَاَ see 1, in seven places. b2: ابتدأهُ بِوَعْدٍ He made him a promise in anticipation; without his asking it of him. (M in art. انف.) بَدءٌ inf.n. of 1; (T, S, M, Msb;) [The act of beginning;] or the doing a thing first. (M.) Yousay, لَكَ البَدْءُ, (M, K,) and ↓ البُدْءُ, (As, TA,) and ↓ البَدْأَةُ, (S, M, Msb, K,) and ↓ البُدْأَةُ, (S, M, K,) and ↓ البِدْأَةُ, (L,) and ↓ البَدَآءَةُ, (M, K,) and ↓ البُدَآءَةُ, (S, M, K,) and البُدَاهَةُ, with ه substituted for ء, (M, Mtr,) and ↓ البِدَآءَةُ, (Mtr, TA,) and, accord. to IKtt, البِدَايَةُ, but see what follows, (TA,) and ↓ البَدِئَةُ, (M, K,) and ↓ البُدَّآءَةُ, (Az, TA,) It is for thee to begin, (S, M, Msb, K,) before any other, in shooting or casting, &c.: (S:) as to البِدَايَةُ, mentioned above, accord. to Mtr [and Fei], (TA,) it is a vulgar word, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) as IB and several others have stated, (Msb, TA, *) a corruption of ↓ البِدَآءَةُ, (Mgh, Msb,) signifying the first; as also ↓ البُدَآءَةُ; and ↓ البَدْأَةُ: (Msb:) but IKtt says that it is a word of the dial. of the Ansár; بَدَأْتُ بِالشَّىْءِ and بَدِيتُ بِهِ signifying قَدَّمْتُهُ: [see 1:] and he cites the following verse of Ibn-Rawáhah: وَلَوْ عَبَدْنَا غَيْرَهُ شَقِينَا بِاسْمِ الْإِلَاهِ وَ بِهِ بَدِينَا [In the name of God, and with it we begin; and if we worshipped any other than Him, we should be miserable]: see art. بدى. (TA. [This verse is also cited in the S in art. بدو, where, in one copy I find it as above; in another, with بَدَيْنَا instead of بَدِيْنَا.]) And you say, فَعَلَهُ عَوْذَا وَبَدْءًا, (T, S,) and عَوْدَهُ عَلَي بَدْئِهِ, (M,) and فِى عَوْدِهِ وَبَدْئِهِ, and ↓ فِى عَوْدَتِهِ وَبَدْأَتِهِ, (S, M,) [He did it returning and beginning again; or returning to his beginning; i. e. he did it again from the beginning; he recommenced it: or you say this] meaning like as is meant by the saying next following. (TA.) رَجَعَ عَوْدَهُ عَلَى بَدْئِهِ, (S, K,) and عَوْدًا عَلَى بَدْءٍ, in both of which [and in the last following] the verb may be trans., and the noun following therefore in the accus. case, (TA,) and فِى عَوْدِهِ وَبَدْئِهِ, and ↓ فِى عَوْدَتِهِ وَبَدْأَتِهِ, [in both of which, if correct, the verb must be intrans.,] and عَوْدًا وَبَدْءًا, [as though meaning عَائِدًا وَبَادِئًا, used as a phrase denotative of state,] (K,) [but in this last, and the two next preceding, accord. to the TA, the verb should be فَعَلَهُ, as in the next preceding sentence, instead of رَجَعَ, and this is confirmed by what is said in the K in art. عود,] He returned in the way whence he had come: (S, K:) [accord. to the TA, the literal meaning of the first and second may be he made his returning to revert to his beginning, and he made a returning to revert to a beginning:] or the meaning of the first, (Sb, TA in art. عود, and K in that art.,) and of the second, (K in that art.,) is, he returned without stopping after he had gone away: (Sb, K:) and sometimes it signifies the stopping in one's coming and then returning: (Sb:) [and it returned to its first state; it recommenced:] and you say, رَجَعْتُ عَوْدِى عَلَى

بَدْئِى, meaning I returned like as I had come. (Sb ubi suprà.) b2: Also First, or former; preceding all others, or preceding another; as also ↓ البَدْءُ بَدِىْءٌ; and البَدِىءُ being syn. with الأَوَّلُ. (S, K.) Hence the saying, اِفْعَلْهُ بَادِى بَدْءٍ, and ↓ بَادِى بَدِىْءٍ, meaning Do thou it the first thing, or the first of everything; [accord. to different copies of the S;] the ى in بادى being quiescent, in the place of the accus. case, accord. to usage; and sometimes they omit the [altogether], on account of frequent use [of the phrase], as will be stated in art. بدو, (S in the present art.,) saying بَادِى بَدٍ, and بَادِىبَدِى (S in art. بدو.)

The shares abovementioned [as commonly divided for the game called المَيْسِر q. v.] are ten; namely, the two haunches, the two thighs properly so called, the two thighs commonly so called (i. e. the tibiæ), the two shoulders, and the two arms; which last are the worst, because of the many veins [therein].

(O, * TA.) You say, لَكَ الشَّىْءُ ↓ اعرض مِنْ بَعِيدٍ The thing appeared to thee from afar. (TA.) And عَرَضَتْ لَهُ الغُولُ, and عَرِضَتْ, (Az, S, O, K,) The ghool appeared to him. (K.) The Arabs say, of a thing, عَرَضَ and ↓ اعرض and ↓ تعرّض and ↓ اعترض, using these verbs as syn.; (Sh;) [app. as meaning It showed, presented, or offered, itself, (lit. its breadth, or width, or its side, see 5,) to a person: the first and last also often signify, and the others sometimes, he obtruded himself in an affair; interfered therein:] IKt disallows ↓ اعرض in the sense of اعترض, as not having been found by him: (TA:) [but] an instance of the former of these two verbs used in the sense of the latter of them occurs in the phrase لِلنَّاظِرِينَ ↓ إِذَا أُعْرَضَتْ [app. meaning When she shows, or presents, herself to the lookers], in a poem by one of the tribe of Teiyi. (Sh.) b2: عَرَضَ لَكَ الخَيْرُ, [in one place in the TA الخَبَرَ, and الخبر in a copy of the Msb,] inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA; [in one place in the TA عُرُوضٌ there referring to الخَبَرُ, which is app. a mistranscription;]) and ↓ اعرض; (S, O, K, TA;) Good [i. e. the doing of good] hath become within thy power, or practicable to thee, or easy to thee. (S, O, K, TA.) And لَكَ الظَّبْىُ ↓ اعرض The gazelle hath exposed to thee its side; (TA;) or hath put its side in thy power, (S, O, K, TA,) by turning it towards thee: (O, TA:) said to incite one to shoot it, or cast at it. (S, O.) Or لَكَ ↓ اعرض, said of an animal of the chase, or other thing, signifies It hath put in thy power, [or exposed to thee,] its breadth, or width: (A:) or لَهُ ↓ اعرض signifies it (a thing) became within his power, or practicable to him, or easy to him; lit., it showed its side [to him]. (Mgh.) [In the TA, I find أَعْرَضَ فِى الشَّىْءِ expl. as signifying He had the width of the thing in his power: but فى, here, seems to be a mistake for لَهُ.] A poet, also, says ↓ أَعْرِضِى addressing a woman; meaning أَمْكِنِى

[Empower thou; i. e. grant thou access]. (S.) b3: عَرَضَ لَهُ, aor. ـِ (As, S, K, TA;) and عَرِضَ, aor. ـَ (TA;) are also said of an event, (As, TA,) or of a disease, and the like, (S, K, TA,) such as disquietude of mind, and a state of distraction of the mind or attention; (TA;) [meaning It happened to him; it befell him; it occurred to him; was incident to him;] and also of doubt, and the like. (TA.) [So, too, is ↓ اعترض.] You also say, عَرَضَهُ عَارِضٌ مِنَ الحُمَّى وَنَحْوِهَا [An occurrence of fever, and the like, happened to him, or befell him]. (S.) And البَدَنَ ↓ اعترض [It befell the body] is said of [a disease, as, for instance,] the mange, or scab. (B, in TA in art. عر.) b4: عَرَضَ لَهُ, aor. ـِ (Msb, TA;) and عَرِضَ له, aor. ـَ (Msb;) He intervened as an obstacle to him, preventing him from attaining his desire, (Msb, TA, *) or from seeking to attain his desire, and from going his way; (TA;) as also له ↓ اعترض. (Msb.) Yousay also, عَرَضَ لَهُ أَشَدَّ العَرْضِ, and ↓ اعترض, He opposed himself to him (قَابَلَهُ بِنَفْسِهِ) with the most vehement opposition of himself. (TA.) See also 5, second sentence. One should not say, عرّضتُ لَهُ, with teshdeed, in the sense of اِعْتَرَضْتُ. (Msb.) You also say, عَرَضَ عَارِضٌ, meaning [An obstacle intervened, or prevented; lit.] an intervening thing intervened; a preventing thing prevented. (TA.) And سِرْتُ فَعَرَضَ لِى فِى الطَّرِيقِ عَارِضٌ مِنْ جَبَلٍ

وَنَحْوِهِ I journeyed, and there opposed itself to me, so as to prevent my going on, an obstacle consisting in a mountain, and the like; as also ↓ اعترض: whence the اِعْتِرَاضَات [or objections] of the lawyers; because they prevent one's laying hold upon the evidence. (Msb.) And عَرَضَ لَهُ الشَّىْءُ فِى الطَّرِيقِ The thing intervened as an obstacle to him in the way, preventing him from going on. (TA.) And عَرَضَ الشَّىْءُ The thing stood up and prevented; [or stood in the way, or presented itself as an obstacle; or opposed itself;] as also ↓ اعترض. (TA.) [And The thing lay, or extended, breadthwise, or across, or athwart; like اعترض, q. v.] And الشَّىْءُ دُونَ الشَّىْءِ ↓ اعترض The thing intervened as an obstacle in the way to the thing; syn. حَالَ. (S, O.) b5: مَا عَرَضْتُ لَهُ بِسُوْءٍ, aor. ـِ and ما عَرِضْتُ, aor. ـَ signify ما تَعَرَّضْتُ: see 5: or, as some say, I did not, or have not, become exposed to his reviling, or evilspeaking, by reviling, or speaking evil, of him. (Msb.) [See also عَرَضَ عِرْضَهُ, below.] b6: عَرَضَ لَهُ also signifies He went towards him; (TA in art. نحو;) and عَرَضَ عَرْضَهُ and عُرْضَهُ [the same, i. e.] نَحَا نَحْوَهُ; (K;) as also عرضه ↓ اعترض (TA.) b7: In the saying of El-Kumeyt, فَأَبْلِغْ يَزِيدَ إِنْ عَرَضْتَ وَمُنْذِرًا he means [And convey thou to Yezeed,] if thou pass by him, [and to Mundhir: or perhaps, if thou go to him: or if thou present thyself to him.] (S.) b8: عَرَضَ الفَرَسُ, (L, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (L, TA,) The horse went along inclining towards one side: (K, TA:) or ran inclining his breast and head: (L, TA:) and ran inclining his head and neck; (K; [in which only the inf. n. of the verb in this last sense is mentioned;]) the doing of which is approved in horses, but disapproved in camels. (TA.) [See also 3, and 5.] b9: عَرَضَ البَعِيرُ, (K,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (TA,) The camel ate of the أَعْرَاض, i. e. of the upper parts of the trees [or shrubs]. (K.) b10: عَرَضَتْ, said of a she-camel, A fracture, (S, O, K,) or some injurious accident, (S, O,) befell her; (S, O, K;) as also عَرِضَتْ; (O, K;) but the former is the more approved: (TA:) and عَرَضَ لَهَا a disease, or a fracture, befell her. (TA, from a trad.) Also, said of a sheep, or goat, (شاة,) It died by disease. (K.) and عَرِضَ الشَّآءُ The sheep, or goats, burst, or became rent, from abundance of herbage. (K.) and عَرَضَ, (IKtt,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (K,) He (an animal, IKtt, or a man, K, [but it is said in the TA that there is no reason for this restriction,]) died without disease. (IKtt, K.) b11: عَرَضَ بِسِلْعَتِهِ i. q. عَارَضَ بِهَا. (K.) See 3, in two places. [and under the same, see a similar phrase.] b12: عَرَضَ He (a man, S, O) came to العَرُوض, i. e. Mekkeh and El-Medeeneh, (S, O, K, TA,) and El-Yemen, (TA,) and what is around them. (S, O, K, TA.) A3: عَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (Msb,) He made the thing apparent; showed it; exhibited it; manifested it; exposed it to view; presented it; (S, O, Msb, K;) unfolded it; laid it open: and also he mentioned it: (Msb:) [lit. he showed its breadth, or width, or its side: and hence it also signifies he made the thing to stand as an obstacle, دُونَ شَىْءٍ in the way to, or of, a thing.] You say, عَرَضَ لَهُ الشَّىْءَ He made apparent, showed, exhibited, manifested, or exposed to view, to him the thing; (S, O, K;) unfolded it, or laid it open, to him. (S, TA.) And عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَ كَذَا (S, O, K *) He showed, propounded, or proposed, to him, such a thing, or such a case: (K, * TA:) [and he asked, or required, of him, with gentleness, the doing of such a thing; for]

العَرْضُ signifies طَلَبٌ بِلِينٍ, (Mughnee and K, voce أَلَا,) or طَلَبٌ بِلِينٍ وَتَأَدُّبٍ. (Mughnee voce لَوْلَا.) And عَرَضْتُ المَتَاعَ لِلْبَيْعِ [I showed, exposed, presented, or offered, the commodity for sale; or] I showed the commodity to those desirous of purchasing it. (Msb.) The phrase عَرَضَ عَلَيْهِ المَتَاعَ [He showed, or offered, to him the commodity] is used because the person shows to the other the length and breadth of the thing (طُولَهُ وَعَرْضَهُ), or because he shows him one of its sides (عُرْضًا مِنْ أَعْرَاضِهِ). (Mgh.) [Hence,] it is said in a trad. of Hodheyfeh, تُعْرَضُ الفِتَنُ عَلَى القُلُوبِ عَرْضَ الحَصِيرِ, which means, accord. to some, that فِتَن [Temptations, &c.,] will be [displayed and] embellished to the hearts of men like [as] the ornamented and variegated garment called حصير [is displayed and embellished]: (B, TA in art. حصر:) or the meaning is, that they will be laid and spread upon the hearts like the حصير: (IAth, TA in the present art.:) and some say that by this last word is here meant a certain vein extending across upon the side of a beast, towards the belly. (TA in art. حصر.) [Hence also,] عَرْضٌ سَابِرِىٌّ [A slight exhibition: (see art. سبر:)] so in the proverbs by A'Obeyd, in the handwriting of Ibn-El-Jawáleekee: (TA:) or عَرْضُ سَابِرِىٍّ: (TA, and so in a copy of the S in this art.:) or عَرْضَ سَابِرِىٍّ. (O, TA, and so in a copy of the S in this art.) With this agrees in meaning the saying عَرَضَ عَلَىَّ سَوْمَ عَالَّةٍ [He offered to me in the manner of offering water to camels taking a second draught: see also arts. سوم and عل; and see Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 84]. (TA.) Yousay also, عَرَضْتُ الجَارِيَةَ عَلَى البَيْعِ [I showed, or displayed, or exposed, or offered, the girl for sale]: (S, O, TA:) and in like manner المَتَاعَ [the commodity]. (TA.) And عَرَضْتُ لَهُ ثَوْبًا مَكَانَ حَقِّهِ; (S, O;) and عَرَضْتُ لَهُ مِنْ حَقِّهِ ثَوْبًا, (S, O, K,) or مَتَاعًا, (TA,) this meaning, [as also the former phrase,] I gave to him a garment, or piece of cloth, [or a commodity,] in place of his due: (S, O, K:) and in like manner, عرضت بِهِ. (El-Umawee, TA.) And عَرَضْتُ البَعِيرَ عَلَى

الحَوْضِ, which is an instance of inversion, meaning عَرَضْتُ الحَوْضَ عَلَى البَعِيرِ [I showed the watering-trough to the camel]: (S, O, Msb:) [or it agrees in meaning with the phrase] عَرَضَ النَّاقَةَ عَلَى الحَوْضِ, and ↓ أَعْرَضَهَا, [as rendered] He offered to the she-camel to drink [at the wateringtrough]. (L, TA.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى السَّيْفِ [lit. He exposed them to the sword; (see also 2;) meaning] he slew them (S, A, O, Msb, K) with the sword. (Msb.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى السَّوْطِ He beat them with the whip; he flogged them. (K, * TA.) And عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى النَّارِ He burned them. (A, TA.) And عَرَضْتُ العَسَلَ عَلَى النَّارِ I cooked the honey [upon the fire] to separate it from the wax. (Msb.) [And عَرَضَ نَفْسَهُ لِلْهَلَاكِ He exposed himself to destruction.] b2: عَرْضٌ also signifies The bringing a man before a judge, and accusing him. (IAar, in TA, art. عقب.) [and The presenting, or addressing, a petition, &c., with عَلَى or لِ before the word signifying the person to whom it is presented or addressed.] b3: One says also, مَا يَعْرِضُكَ لِفُلَانٍ, (S, [so in two copies,] and O,) or مَا يَعْرُضَكَ, (L, TA,) with fet-h to the ى and damm to the ر, (L,) the verb being coordinate to نَصَرَ: (TA:) [app. meaning What causeth thee to present thyself to such a one?]: Yaakoob disallows one's saying ↓ مَا يُعَرِّضُكَ لِفُلَانٍ, with teshdeed. (S, O, TA.) [But the latter of these two verbs has a signification nearly allied to that which is here assigned to the former, and exactly agreeing with one mentioned before. See 2.] b4: عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ, (S, Msb,) and عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ عَرْضَ العَيْنِ, (S, O,) or عَرْضَ عَيْنٍ, (A, K, B, except that in the A and B we find الجَيْشَ instead of الجند,) aor. ـِ (Msb,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (Yoo, S,) He made the army, or body of soldiers, to pass by him, and examined their state, (S, O, K,) what it was: (S, O:) [i. e. he reviewed them:] or he made them to pass before him in review, that he might know who was absent and who was present: (A, B:) or he caused them to come forth, and examined them, that he might know them: (Msb:) and you say also, ↓ اعترضهُمْ, (S, O, K,) meaning [the same, or] he made them to pass by him, or before him, and examined them, one by one, (K, TA,) to see who were absent from those who were present. (TA.) You say also, ↓ اعترض المَتَاعَ وَنَحْوَهُ and عَلَى عَيْنِهِ ↓ اعترضهُ [He examined the commodity, and the like thereof, having it displayed before his eye]. (Th.) [See also عَرْضٌ.]

(Msb.) A4: عَرَضَ عِرْضَهُ, aor. ـِ (TA;) and ↓ اعترضهُ; (A, TA;) [perhaps originally signified He examined his grounds of pretension to respect, or the like: and then became used to express a frequent consequence of doing so; i. e.] he spoke evil of him; reviled him; detracted from his reputation: (A, TA:) or he corresponded to him, or equalled him, in grounds of pretension to respect: (TA:) [the former seems to be the more probable of the two meanings; for it is said that] فُلَانًا ↓ اعترض signifies he spoke evil of such a one; reviled him; detracted from his reputation; (Lth, S, O, K;) and annoyed him. (Lth, TA.) A5: عَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, (K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (TA,) He hit the side (عُرْض) of the thing. (K.) A6: عَرَضَ العُودَ عَلَى

الإِنَآءِ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and السَّيْفَ عَلَى فَخِذِهِ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـُ and عَرِضَ, (S, O, Msb, K,) in both phrases, (O, K,) [J says, in the S, app. referring, not, as SM thinks, to the latter of the two phrases, but to the meaning, “this, only, with damm,”] He put the stick breadthwise, across, athwart, or crosswise, (مَعْرُوضًا, TA, or بِالعَرْضِ, Msb, TA, both meaning the same, TA,) upon the vessel, (Msb, TA,) [and so the sword upon his thigh: and ↓ عرّضهُ signifies the same.] b2: عَرَضَ الرُّمْحَ, aor. ـِ [and probably عَرُضَ also,] inf. n. عَرْضٌ; and ↓ عرّضهُ, inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ; (TA:) He turned, or placed, the spear sideways; contr. of سَدَّدَهُ.

(TA.) b4: The saying of Aboo-Kebeer El-Hudhalee, cited, but not expl., by Th, فَعَرَضْتُهُ فِى سَاقِ أَسْمَنِهَا is thought by ISd to mean And I made its (the sword's) breadth to become concealed in the thigh of the fattest of them. (TA.) A7: عَرَضَهُ He fed him: (Fr, TA:) [or he offered, or presented, to him food: for] عُرِضُوا signifies They were fed: and they had food offered, or presented, to them. (L, TA.) [See also 2, in the last quarter.] b2: عَرَضَ الحَوْضَ and القِرْبَةَ He filled the wateringtrough and the water-skin. (K.) A8: عَرَضَ الشَّوْكَ: see 8, near the end.

A9: عَرَضَ بَعِيرَهُ, inf. n. عَرْضٌ, He branded his camel with the mark called عِرَاض; (S;) and so ↓ عرّضهُ: (S, TA:) and عُرِضَ البَعِيرُ, inf. n. as above, The camel was branded with that mark. (K.) A10: عَرَضْتُهُ, (K,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. عَرْضٌ, (K, TA,) I defrauded, or deceived, him in selling. (K.)

(TA.) b2: See also 1, near the end, in three places. b3: تَعَرِيضٌ also signifies The speaking obliquely, indirectly, obscurely, ambiguously, or equivocally; contr. of تَصْرِيحٌ; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as when thou askest a man, “ Hast thou seen such a one? ” and he, having seen him, and disliking to lie, answers, “Verily such a one is seen: ” (Msb:) or the making a phrase, or the like, to convey an allusion, or an indication not expressly mentioned therein; as when you say “ How foul is niggardliness! ” alluding to such a one's being a niggard (تُعَرِّضُ بِأَنَّهُ بَخِيلٌ): differing from كِنَايَةٌ, which is the mentioning of the consequence and meaning that of which it is the consequence; as when you say “ Such a one has a long suspensory cord to his sword, and has many ashes of the cooking-pot; ”

meaning that he is tall of stature, and one who entertains many guests: (Mgh:) [but many hold these two words to be identical in meaning.] You say, عَرَّضْتُ لِفُلَانٍ and بِفُلَانٍ, i. e. I said something [in the manner explained above], meaning such a one. (S, Msb.) [See also an ex. voce كَلَّآءٌ.] 'Omar defined [or rather explained]

التَّعْرِيضُ بِالفَاحِشَةِ [The making an allusion to that which is foul, or obscene] by the instance of a man saying to another “ My father is not an adulterer, nor is my mother an adulteress. ” (O, TA.) Or, accord. to the early authorities, عرّض signifies He used a phrase susceptible of different meanings, or an equivocal phrase, by which the hearer understood a meaning different from that which he (the speaker) intended: or, accord. to the later authorities, as Et-Teftezánee, he mentioned a thing by a proper or tropical or metonymical expression, to signify some other thing, which he did not mention; as when one says, “I heard him whom thou hatest praying for thee, and making good mention of thee; ” meaning in his praying for the Muslims in general. (El-Munáwee, in explaining the trad. إِنَّ فِى المَعَارِيضِ الخ, which see below, voce مِعْرَاضٌ.) تعريض with respect to the demanding of a woman in marriage in [the period of] her عِدَّة, [during which she may not contract a new marriage,] is the using language which resembles a demand of her in marriage, but does not plainly express it; as the saying to her “ Verily thou art beautiful,” or “ Verily there is a desire for thee,” or “ Verily women are of the things that I need: ” and تعريض is sometimes made by the quoting of proverbs, and by the introducing of enigmas in one's speech. (TA.) [When followed by عَلَى, it signifies The making an indirect objection against a person or saying &c.] b4: Also عرّض, (S, O,) inf. n. as above, (K,) He wrote indistinctly; (S, O, K;) not making the letters distinct, nor the handwriting rightly formed or disposed. (TA.) A2: تَعْرِيضٌ also sigsifies The making a thing to be exposed [or liable] to another thing. (K, [It is there expl., with the article ال prefixed to it, by the words أَنْ يَجْعَلَ لِلشَّىْءِ ↓ الشَّىْءَ عَرْضًا, or ↓ عَرَضًا, accord. to different copies; the latter (which see, last sentence but one,) app. the right reading; meaning مَعْرُوضًا, whichever be the right; for an inf. n. may be used in the sense of a pass. part. n.; and many a word of the measure فَعَلٌ is used in that sense, as, for instance, خَبَطٌ and نَفَضٌ and هَدَمٌ. That I have rightly rendered the above-mentioned explanation in the K is indicated by what here immediately follows.]) Hence the trad. مَا عَظُمَتْ نِعْمَةُ اللّٰهِ عَلَى عَبْدٍ إِلَّا عَظُمَتْ مَؤُونَةُ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْتَمِلْ تِلْكَ المَؤُونَةَ فَقَدْ عَرَّضَ تِلْكَ النِّعْمَةَ لِلزَّوَالِ [The blessing of God upon a servant, or man, hath not become great but the burden of other men upon him hath become great; and he who doth not take upon himself that burden causeth that blessing to be exposed to cessation]. (O, TA.) You also say, هُوَ لَهُ ↓ عَرَّضْتُ فُلَانًا لِكَذَا فَتَعَرَّضَ [I caused such a one to expose himself, or I exposed him, to such a thing, and he exposed himself, or became exposed, to it], (S, O, *) i. e. ↓ جَعَلْتُهُ عَرَضًا لِكَذَا. (O.) See also 1, last quarter. b2: Also The giving a thing in exchange for, as an equivalent for, or in the place of, another thing. (TA.) b3: And The act of bartering, or selling, a commodity for a like commodity. (K, * TA.) See 3, in two places. b4: And The giving what is termed an عُرَاضَة: (TA:) and the feeding with what is so termed: (K:) or the giving food of what is so termed. (S.) [See also 1, near the end.] It is said in a trad., respecting a company of travelling merchants making presents to Mohammad and Aboo-Bekr, عَرَّضُوهُمَا ثِيَابًا بِيضًا They gave to both of them white garments, or pieces of cloth. (L.) And you say, عَرَّضُوهُمْ مَحْضًا They gave them to drink [unmixed] milk. (TA.) And عَرِّضُونَا Give ye to us food of your عُرَاضَة; your wheat, or corn, which ye have brought. (S, TA.) b5: عرّض المَاشِيَةَ, inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ, He made the cattle to have such pasturage as rendered them in no need of being fed with fodder. (TA.) A3: عرّض, (IAar, O,) inf. n. تَعْرِيضٌ (K,) also signifies He became possessed of عَارِضَة [i. e. courage, or courage and energy], (IAar, O, K,) and strength, or power, (IAar, O,) and a faculty of speech, (IAar, O, K,) or, as in the Tekmileh, and power of speech. (TA.) A4: And He kept continually to the eating of عِرْضَان, (O, * K, TA, [in the O عِرَاض,]) pl. of عَرِيضٌ. (TA.) A5: See also 4, last sentence.3 عَاْرَضَ [عَارضهُ has two contr. significations, which are unequivocally expressed by saying عارضهُ بِالخِلَافِ and عارضهُ بِالوِفَاقِ. (See عَانَدَهُ.) Thus one says,] عارضهُ, (Msb,) inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, (TA,) He opposed him [being opposed by him]. (Kull p. 342.) b2: And [He vied, competed, or contended for superiority, with him; emulated, rivalled, or imitated, him;] he did like as he (the latter) did. (Msb, TA.) You say also, عَارَضْتُهُ بِمِثْلِ مَا صَنَعَ, (S, O,) or بِمِثْلِ صَنِيعِهِ, (K,) I did to him like as he did: (S, O, K:) whence المُعَارَضَة [in trafficking, as will be seen below]: as though the breadth (عَرْض) of the action of the one were like the breadth of the action of the other. (O, K.) And عارضهُ بِمَا صَنَعَهُ He requited him for that which he did. (L.) b3: [Hence] مُعَارَضَةٌ also signifies The selling a commodity for another commodity; exchanging it for another; as also عَرْضٌ: (TA:) and [in like manner] ↓ تَعْرِيضٌ, the act of bartering, or selling a commodity for a like commodity. (K, * TA.) You say, عارض بِسِلْعَتِهِ; and بِهَا ↓ عَرَضَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَرْضٌ; (TA;) He exchanged his commodity; giving one commodity and taking another; (TA:) and مَتَاعَهُ ↓ عرّض he sold his commodity for another commodity. (TK.) Also عارضهُ بِالبَيْعِ (M and L in art. بد) and بَاعَهُ مُعَارَضَةً (S and K in that art.) [He bartered, or exchanged commodities, with him]. And ↓ أَخَذْتُ هٰذِهِ السِّلْعَةَ عَرْضًا I took this commodity giving another in exchange for it. (TA.) And when persons demand blood of other persons, and they [the latter] do not retaliate for them, they [the latter] say, نَحْنُ نَعْرِضُ مِنْهُ [We will give a compensation for it]: and they [the former] accept (اعترضوا) the bloodwit. (L.) b4: You say also, عَارَضْتُهُ فِى البَيْعِ فَعَرَضْتُهُ [I vied with him in endeavouring to defraud, or deceive, in selling, or buying,] and I defrauded, or deceived, him therein. (K, * TA.) And عارضهُ بِالمَجْدِ [He vied, or competed, or contended, with him, or emulated him, or rivalled him, in glory, or honour, &c.]: (L and K in art. مجد:) and in like manner عارضهُ بِالفَخْرِ. (K in art. فخر.) See 6. b5: عارضهُ, (O, K,) or عارضهُ فِى المَسِيرِ (S,) or فى السَّيْرِ, (A,) He went along over against him; or on the opposite side to him; (S, A, O, K;) in a corresponding manner; (TA;) [each taking the side opposite to the other.] b6: [Hence. عارضهُ as signifying It (a tract &c.) lay over against him. Also as syn. with اعرض عَنْهُ.] See 4. b7: [Hence also,] عارض, (S, O, K,) inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, (TA,) He took to one side (S, O, K *) of the way, or ways, (accord. to different copies of the K,) while another took to another way, so that they both met. (TA.

(TA.) b8: عارض الجِنَازَةَ He came to the bier, or the bier conveying the corpse, intermediately (مُعْتَرِضًا), in a part of the way, not following it from the abode of the deceased: (O, K, TA:) said of Mohammad, in a trad. respecting the funeral of Aboo-Tálib.

(A, O, TA.) [Hence also,] اِبْنُ مُعَارَضَةٍ i. q. سَفِيحٌ; (O, K;) i. e. A son the offspring of fornication. (O, TA.) b10: الجَوْزَآءُ تَمُرُّ عَلَى جَنْبٍ وَتُعَارِضُ النُّجُومَ, inf. n. مُعَارَضَةٌ, [Orion passes along towards one side, and is oblique in its course with respect to the other stars;] i. e. it is not direct [in the disposition of its stars, particularly of the three conspicuous stars of the belt, with respect to its course] in the sky.

(A, TA.) b12: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ مُعَارَضَةً He looked at him, or towards him, sideways, or obliquely. (A, TA.) You say also, نَظَرَ عَنْ مُعَارَضَةٍ [He looked sideways, or obliquely]. (TA in art. خزر.) and you say of a she-camel, تَمْشِى مُعَارَضَةً لِلنَّشَاطِ [She goes obliquely by reason of briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness]. (S, K. * [See again 5, latter half.]) b13: عارض الشَّىْءَ بِالشَّىْءِ He compared the thing with the thing. (Msb.)

And كَتَبَ كِتَابًا عَنْ مُعَارَضَةٍ [He copied, or transcribed, the writing, or book]. (K in art. نسخ.) b14: And المُعَارَضَةُ is syn. with المُدَارَسَةُ [probably as meaning The reading, or studying, with another]. (TA.) A2: ضَرَبَ النَّاقَةَ عِرّاضًا [He covered the she-camel agreeably with her desire] is said when the stallion is offered to her, and if she desire he covers her, but otherwise he does not: (S, O, TA:) in the K it is said, if he desire her; which is wrong: (TA:) this is because of her generous quality. (S, O, TA.) b2: And لَقِحَتْ عِرَاضًا She (a camel) conceived by a stallion, she not being of the camels among which he was sent. (AO, TA.) b3: See also 8, near the end.4 اعرض: see 1, first sentence; and in thirteen places after that, as far as the break after the words “ grant thou access. ” b2: Also He went wide (S, O, Msb, K) and long; (S, O, K;) فِى الشَّىْءِ [in the thing]; (Msb;) and فِى المَكَارِمِ (tropical:) [in generous actions].

↓ عارضهُ he turned aside, or away, from him; avoided him; shunned him; (S, O, K;) lit. he became aside with respect to him. (TA.) A2: اعرضهُ: see 2, first signification. b2: أَعْرَضَتْ بِوُلْدِهَا She (a woman) brought forth her children broad [in make]; expl. by the words وَلَدَتْهُمْ عِرَاضًا; (S, O, K;) [not meaning عَنْ عِرَاضٍ, (see 3,) as Freytag, deviating from Golius, has understood it; unless SM be in error; for he says that] the last word in this explanation is pl. of عَرِيضٌ. (TA.) b3: اعرض المَسْأَلَةَ He put, or expressed, the question broadly; (Mgh;) widely; (Mgh, TA;) largely. (TA.) b4: اعرض النَّاقَةَ عَلَى الحَوْضِ: see عَرَضَ, latter half. b5: اعرض العِرْضَانَ He put for sale the عرضان [pl. of عَرِيضٌ, q. v.]. (O.) b6: And (O) He castrated the عرضان. (S, IKtt, O.) b7: [And app. He circumcized a boy: or so ↓ عرّض: see مُعَرِّضٌ.]5 تعرّض: see عَرَضَ, near the beginning, where these two verbs, and اعرض and اعترض, are said to be used as syn.; [app. as meaning It showed, presented, or offered, itself, to a person; lit. it showed, or presented, its breadth, or width; or, as تعرّض is expl. in the EM p. 19, it showed its عُرْض, i. e. side: this, or it, or he, presented, or offered, or exposed, its, or his, side, seems to be the primary signification of تعرّض, and of اعترض, as well as of عَرَضَ; and is of frequent occurrence: and all (as mentioned voce عَرَضَ) signify also he obtruded himself in an affair; interfered therein.] b2: [Hence,] تعرّض لَهُ He opposed himself to him; he offered opposition to him; or he attacked him; said of a man, and of a beast of prey, or noxious reptile, and the like; as also ↓ عَرَضَ and ↓ اعترض: this signification also is of frequent occurrence. (The lexicons passim.) b3: [Hence also,] He addressed, or applied, or directed, himself, or his regard, or attention, or mind, to him, or it; [as though he set himself over against the object to which the verb relates;] syn. تَصَدَّى. (Lth, Lh, S, O, Msb, K.) So in the saying, تعرّض لِمَعْرُوفِهِمْ and مَعْرُوفَهُمْ [He addressed himself, &c., presented himself, betook himself, advanced, came forward, or went forward, or attempted, to obtain their favour, or bounty]: and تعرّض لِلْمَعْرُوفِ and المَعْرُوفَ [He addressed himself, &c., to obtain favour, or bounty; and] he sought, or demanded, it: (Az, Msb:) and [so] للمعروف ↓ اعترض (Msb in art. عر. [See also اعترض لَهُ.]) So too in the saying, تَعَرَّضُوا لِنَفَحَاتِ رَحْمَةِ اللّٰهِ [Address ye yourselves, &c., to become objects of the effusions of the mercy of God]; (O, K, TA;) occurring in a trad. (TA.) And hence the saying, تعرّض فِى شَهَادَتِهِ لِكَذَا He addressed himself, &c., (تصدّى,) in his testimony, to the mention of such a thing. (Msb.) It is likewise syn. with تصدّى in the saying, تعرّض لِى فُلَانٌ بِمَكْرُوهٍ [Such a one addressed himself, &c., or attempted, to do me an abominable, or evil, action; or opposed himself to me with an abominable, or evil, action]. (Lth.) [In like manner also you say,] يَتَعَرَّضُ لِلنَّاسِ بِالشَّرِّ [He addresses himself, &c., to do to men evil; or he opposes himself to men with evil or mischief]. (S, K.) And مَا تَعَرَّضْتُ لَهُ بِسُوْءٍ [I did not address myself, or have not addressed myself, &c., to do to him evil]: and ↓ مَا عَرَضْتُ and ↓ مَا عَرِضْتُ are said to signify the same. (Msb.) [See 1.] Yousay also, تَعَرَّضْتُ أَسْأَلُهُمْ [I addressed myself, &c., to ask them]. (S, O. *) And جَآءَ فُلَانٌ يَتَعَرَّضُ, and يَتَضَرَّعُ, Such a one came asking, or petitioning, to another, for a thing that he wanted. (Fr, in S, art.ضرع.) b4: And تعرّض الرِّفَاقَ He asked the companies of travellers for what are termed عُرَاضَات [pl. of عُرَاضَةٌ, q. v.]. (TA.) b5: تعرّض لِكَذَا [also signifies He exposed himself, or became exposed, to such a thing]. (S.) See 2, latter portion. b6: Also تعرّض, [from عُرْضٌ,] He, or it, turned aside; turned from the right course or direction; syn. تَعَوَّجَ; (S, K, TA;) and زَاغَ: (TA:) his, or its, course, or march, was, or became, indirect, or oblique. (L, TA.) You say, تعرّض الجَمَلُ فِى الجَبَلِ The camel went to the right and left, [in, or upon, the mountain,] on account of the difficulty of the road, or way. (S, O, K.) And تَعَرَّضَتِ الإِبِلُ المَدَارِجَ The camels went along the routes (فِى المَدَارِجِ) [المَدَارِجَ being in the accus. case because فى is understood, not that the verb is trans.] to the right and left; (A;) i. e., alternately to the right and left. (T in art. ثنى.) [See a verse cited voce تَصَدَّفَ, and its explanation.] Dhu-l-Bijádeyn, being guide to the Apostle, addressing his she-camel, said, تَعَرَّضِى مَدَارِجًا وَسُومِى

تَعَرُّضَ الجَوْزَآءِ لِلنُّجُومِ هٰذَا أَبُو القَاسِمِ فَاسْتَقِيمِى (S, O) Go thou along routes to the right and left, avoiding the rugged acclivities, [and continue thy course, or as expl. in the TA, art. سوم, pass along quickly,] (TA,) like as الجوزاء [Orion] passes along in the sky obliquely, or indirectly, in the disposition of its stars [with respect to the other stars: (see 3, towards the end:) this is Abu-l- Kásim; therefore go thou right]. (IAth, TA.) b7: تعرّض الفَرَسُ فِى رَسَنِهِ i. q. اعترض, q. v. (TA.) You say also, of a camel, فِى سَيْرِهِ ↓ يَعْتَرِضُ [He inclines towards one side, in his march, or course; or goes obliquely, or inclining towards one side]. (K: and so in one copy of the S: in another copy of the S, يَتَعَرَّضُ. [See also 3, last quarter.]) b8: تعرّض also signifies It (a thing) became infected, vitiated, or corrupted; and in this sense it is said of love: (TA:) [as though it turned from the right course, or direction; a signification mentioned before; and thus it is expl. in the S, as occurring in the phrase تعرّض وَصْلُهُ, in the Mo'allakah of Lebeed; or, thus used, it signifies] it (a person's attachment to another) became altered, so as to cease. (EM p. 149.) 6 تعارضا They opposed each other. (Ibn-Maaroof, in Golius. [The verb is very often used in this sense.]) b2: They fought, or combated, each other. (MA.) b3: They did each like as the other did; they imitated each other: they vied, competed, or contended, each with the other; they emulated, or rivalled, each other: (TA in art. برى:) syn. تَبَارَيَا. (K in that art.) 8 اعترض: see عَرَضَ, near the beginning, where these two verbs and اعرض and تعرّض, are said to be used as syn., app. in the senses expl. there and in the beginning of 5. b2: [Hence,] اعترض عَلَيْهِ He opposed, resisted, or withstood, him, or it; syn. اِمْتَنَعَ. (MA.) [See 1 in art. شنف, in two places.] b3: See also 5, second sentence. b4: And see from عَرَضَ لَهُ as signifying “ it happened to him ” as far as the end of the sentence explaining اعترض الشَّىْءُ دُونَ الشَّىْءِ.

اعترض signifies [It lay, or extended, breadthwise, across, transversely, athwart, sideways, obliquely, or horizontally: or so as to present an obstacle: or so intervened in any manner; as shown in the part last referred to, above: or rather it has both of these meanings; and in the former sense it is used, in the TA, art. حر, in describing the direction of an asterism, opposed to اِنْتَصَبَ: or, in other words,] it (a thing, S) became, (K,) or became an obstacle, (صَارَ عَارِضًا, S, O,) like a piece of wood lying across, or athwart, or obliquely, (مُعْتَرِضَةً,) in a channel of running water, (S, O, K,) or a road, (O, L,) and the like, preventing persons from passing along it. (L.) It is also said [of a collection of clouds appearing, or presenting itself, or extending sideways, or stretching along in the horizon like a mountain; see عَارِضٌ: and] of a building, or other thing, such as a trunk of a palm-tree, or a mountain, lying in a road: and as this prevents the passengers from passing along the road, it is used as signifying He, or it, prevented, or hindered: (O, K:) it is quasi-pass. of عَرَضَهُ. (K, * TA.) [And hence,] اُعْتُرِضَ عَنِ امْرَأَتِهِ, (O, TA,) not اِعْتَرَضَ, as the K seems to indicate, (TA,) He was prevented from going in to his wife, by an obstacle that befell him, arising from the jinn, or genii, or from disease: (O, K, TA:) occurring in a trad. (TA.) b5: [Hence,] اِعْتِرَاضٌ which is forbidden in a trad. [respecting horseracing] signifies A man's coming intermediately with his horse, in a part of the course, and so entering among the [other] horses. (O, L, K.) [See also عَارَضَ الجِنَازَةَ.] b6: [And hence,] اعترض الشَّهْرَ He commenced [the observances of] the month not from the beginning thereof. (S, O, K.) b7: [اعترضت الجُمْلَةُ The clause intervened parenthetically. b8: اعترض عَلَيْهِ He interposed in an argument, or the like, objecting against him something, by way of confutation]. And اعترض عَلَى

أَحَدٍ مِنْ قَوْلٍ أَوْفِعْلٍ He attributed to any one an error in respect of a saying or an action. (Har p. 687.) b9: اعترض الفَرَسُ فِى رَسَنِهِ The horse was perverse, untoward, or intractable, [in his halter,] to his leader; (S, A, O, K;) as also ↓ تعرّض. (TA. [See مُعْتَرِضٌ.]) And اِعْتَرِاضٌ in a man is The appearing and engaging in what is vain, or false, and refusing to obey the truth. (TA.) b10: اعترضهُ He faced him, and advanced towards him: (Har p. 420) and اعترض عَرْضَهُ and عُرْضَهُ [has nearly, if not exactly, the same signification]: see عَرَضَ. And اعتراض also signifies The coming in upon any one: or entering upon an affair. (Har p. 687.) b11: [اعترض لَهُ often means He presented himself, or advanced, or came forward, to him: and he addressed or betook himself, or advanced, or went forward, to it; namely, an action; like تعرّض له: see its syns. اِنْبَرَى and تَبَرَّى.] b12: See also 5, second sentence. b13: اعترض لَهُ بِسَهْمٍ He advanced towards him with an arrow, and shot at him, and slew him. (S, O, K.) b14: اعترض لِلْمَعْرُوفِ: see 5. b15: يَعْتَرِضُ فِى سَيْرِهِ: see 5, near the end.

A2: اعترض He rode while reviewing the army, or body of soldiers, or making them to pass by him and examining their state, (S, O, K,) عَلَى الدَّابَّةِ upon the beast. (S, O.) b2: اعترض الجُنْدُ The army, or body of soldiers, was reviewed: (Mgh, L:) quasi-pass. of عَرَضَ الجُنْدَ [which signifies the same as the phrase next following]. (O, L, TA.) b3: اعترض الجُنْدَ: and المَتَاعَ وَنَحْوَهُ and اعترضهُ عَلَى عَيْنِهِ: see عَرَضَ, last quarter.

A3: اِعترض عِرْضَهُ: and اعترض فُلَانًا: see عَرَضَ, last quarter.

A4: اعترض البَعِيرَ He rode the camel while refractory, or untractable, (S, O, K,) as yet. (K.) And اعترض العَرُوضَ He took the untrained she-camel in her untrained state. (TA. [In the original of this explanation is a mistranscription, which I have rectified in the translation; اخذعا for أَخَذَهَا.]) b2: [Hence, app.,] اعترض فُلَانٌ الشَّىْءَ Such a one undertook the thing, or constrained himself to do it, it being difficult, or troublesome, or inconvenient. (IAth.) A5: اعترض الشَّوْكَ (K, TA.) He ate the thorns: and الشَّوْكَ ↓ عَرَضَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. عَرَضَ, he took and ate of the thorns: both said of a sheep or goat, or rather of a camel: (TA:) and [in like manner] one says of a camel, الشَّجَرَ ذَا الشَّوْكِ بِفِيهِ ↓ عَارَضَ: and the camel that does so is said to be ذُو عِرَاضٍ. (S, O, K.) A6: See also 10, in five places.

A7: اعترض مِنْهُ [He accepted an equivalent, or a substitute, or compensation, for it]. You say, كَانَ عَلَى فُلَانٍ نَقْدٌ فَأَعْسَرْتُهُ فَاعْتَرَضْتُ مِنْهُ [Such a one owed a debt of money, and I demanded it of him when it was difficult for him to pay it, and I accepted an equivalent, &c., for it]: and اعترضوا مِنْهُ, referring to blood, when retaliation has been refused, means they accepted [قَبِلُوا, for which اقبلوا has been substituted by the copyists in the L and TA,] the bloodwit [as a compensation for it]. (L.) 10 استعرض: see عَرُضَ; second sentence. b2: استعرضت النَّاقَةُ بِاللَّحْمِ is like the phrase قُذِفَتْ بِاللَّحْمِ, (O, K, TA,) meaning The she-camel became fat and plump. (TA.) A2: استعرضهُ He asked him to show, or exhibit, to him what he had. (S, TA.) b2: استعرض الجَارِيَةَ He asked to show, or display, to him the girl on the occasion of sale. (Mtr, in Har p. 557.) A3: استعرضها He came to her from the direction of her side. (TA.) b2: [Hence, استعرضهُ also signifies, and so ↓ اعترضهُ, He betook himself to him or it, or he took him or it, or he acted with respect to him or it, without any direct aim, at random, or indiscriminately: and hence the phrase here following.] استعرض النَّاسُ الخَوَارِجَ and ↓ اِعْتَرَضُوهُمْ The people went forth against the Khárijees not caring whom they slew. (Mgh.) And مَنْ لَقُوا ↓ لَا بَأْسَ بِأَنْ يَعْتَرِضُوا فَيَقْتُلُوا [There will be no harm to them] in their taking without distinguishing who and whence he is him whom they find, and slaying. (Mgh.) and يَسْتَعْرِضُ الخَارِجِىُّ النَّاسَ The Khárijee slays men (S, O, K, * TA) in any possible manner, and destroys whomsoever he can, (TA,) without inquiring respecting the condition of any one, (S, * O, K, TA,) Muslim or other, (S, O, TA,) and without caring whom he slays. (TA.) And وَاشْتَرِهِ مِمَّنْ ↓ اِعْتَرِضْهُ وَجَدْتَهُ وَلَا تَسْأَلْ عَمَّنْ عَمِلَهُ [Take thou it at random, or indiscriminately, and buy it of him whom thou findest, and ask not respecting him who made it]. (S, K.) And اِسْتَعْرَضَ يُعْطِى مَنْ أَقْبَلَ وَمَنْ

أَدْبَرَ [He acted indiscriminately, giving to him who advanced and to him who retired]. (S.) And اِسْتَعْرِضِ العَرَبَ Ask thou whom thou wilt of the Arabs respecting such and such things. (S.) You say also, of land (أَرْض) in which is herbage, يَسْتَعْرِضُهَا المَالُ and ↓ يَعْتَرِضُهَا [The camels, or the like,] depasture it [app. at random] when traversing it. (K.) عَرْضٌ Breadth; width; contr. of طُولٌ; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) and i. q. سَعَةٌ; (K;) the mutual distance of the edges or sides of a thing: (Msb:) primarily relating to corporeal things, but afterwards used in relation to other things: [see عَرِيضٌ:] (TA:) this word as signifying the contr. of طول is the common source of derivation of the other words of this art., not withstanding their multitude: (O:) pl. [of pauc.] أَعْرَاضٌ (IAar, TA) and of mult. عُرُوضٌ and عِرَاضٌ. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [lvii. 21, وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا كَعَرْضِ السَّمَآءِ والأَرْضِ And a paradise whereof the breadth, or width, is like the breadth, or width, of the heaven and the earth: and in iii. 127,] عَرْضُهَا السَّمٰوَاتُ والأَرْضُ [the breadth, or width, whereof is as the heavens and the earth]: and Ibn-'Arafeh observes that when the عَرْض is described as being much, it indicates that the طُول is much, for the latter is more than the former. (O, TA.) You say also, عَرَضَ عَرْضَهُ, and ↓ عُرْضَهُ, He went towards him: [lit. towards his breadth, and his side.] (K.) And ذَهَبَ عَرْضًا وَطُولًا [He went wide and long]; (S, Msb, * K;) فِى الشَّىْءِ [in the thing]; (Msb;) and فِى المَكَارِمِ (tropical:) [in generous actions]. (TA.) And قَطَعَهُ عَرْضًا [He cut it breadthwise, or across, or crosswise]. (S in art. قط, &c.) And قَطَعَ الوَادِى عَرْضًا [He crossed the valley]; (S and K in art. جزع &c.;) and in like manner, الأَرْضَ [the land]. (K in that art.) And وَضَعَ العُودَ عَلَى الإِنَآءِ بِالعَرْضِ [He put the stick upon the vessel breadthwise, or across, or crosswise]; (Msb;) i. q. مَعْرُوضًا. (TA.) b2: [In geography, The latitude of a place.] b3: The middle, or midst, of a thing: or عَرْضُ الشَّىْءِ signifies the thing itself. (TA.)

(TA.) b3: A valley in which are towns, or villages, and waters: (O, K:) or in which are palm-trees: (K:) or a valley containing many palms and other trees: (TA:) or any valley in which are trees: (S, O:) [see also عَرْضٌ, explained as applied to a valley:] pl. as above, (S,) and عُرْضَانٌ. (TA.) b4: أَعْراضُ الحِجَازِ The towns, or villages, of El-Hijáz: (K:) or these, (TA,) or the أَعْرَاض, (S, O,) are certain towns, or villages, [with their territories; i. e. certain provinces, or districts;] between El-Hijáz and El-Yemen: (S, O, TA:) and some say that أَعْرَاضُ المَدِينَةِ is applied to the towns, or villages, that are in the valleys of El-Medeeneh: (TA:) or the low lands of its towns, or villages, where are seed-produce and palm-trees: so says Sh: (O, TA:) the sing. is عِرْضٌ. (K.) b5: And عِرْضٌ, (S, O,) or أَعْرَاضٌ, (K,) which is its pl., (TA,) signifies [The trees called] أَرَاك (S, O, K) and أَثْل (S, O) and حَمْض. (S, O, K.) A2: Also A great cloud, (K, TA,) appearing, or presenting itself, or intervening, (يَعْتَرِضُ,) in the horizon. (TA.) [See عَرْضٌ and عَارِضٌ, which signify nearly the same.]

A3: I. q. عَرْضٌ, q. v., as signifying (assumed tropical:) An army: (K:) or a great army: (TA:) b2: and as signifying (assumed tropical:) Numerous locusts. (K.) A4: One's self; syn. نَفْسٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) i. e. نَفْسُ رَجُلٍ. (IKt.) You say, أَكْرَمْتُ عَنْهُ عِرْضِى I preserved myself from it. (S, O.) and فُلَانٌ نَقِىُّ العِرْضِ Such a one is [pure in respect of himself; or] free from reproach; (S, O;) or from fault, or vice, or the like. (S, Msb.) and in the same sense it occurs in the saying of Abu-d-Dardà, أَقْرِضْ مِنْ عِرْضِكَ لِيَوْمِ فَقْرِكَ [Lend thou from thyself for the day of thy poverty: but see art. قرض]: and in other instances. (TA.) b2: The body; syn. جَسَدٌ, (IAar, S, O, K,) or بَدَنٌ: (IKt, Az:) pl. أَعْرَاضٌ. (Az, S.) So in the description of the people of Paradise, (Az, S,) in a trad., (Az,) إِنَّمَا هُوَ عَرَقٌ يَجْرِى مِنْ أَعْرَاضِهِمْ [It is only sweat which flows from their bodies]. (Az, S, O.) b3: The skin. (Ibráheem El-Harbee, O, K.) b4: Any place of the body that sweats: (O, K:) so in the trad. cited above: (TA:) or any part of the body such as the arm-pit and the groin and the like. (A'Obeyd.) b5: The odour of the body, (S, O, K,) and of other things, (S, O,) whether sweet or foul. (S, O, K.) You say, فُلَانٌ طَيِّبُ العِرْضِ [Such a one is sweet in respect of odour], and مُنْتِنُ العِرْضِ [foul in respect of odour]; and سِقَآءٌ خَبِيثُ العِرْضِ a stinking water-skin, or milk-skin; from A'Obeyd. (S, O.) b6: A man's honour, or reputation, (جَانِبُهُ,) which he preserves from impairment and blame, both as it relates to himself and to his حَسَب [or grounds of pretension to respect on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of his ancestors, &c.]: (IAth, O, K:) or whether it relate to himself or to his ancestors or to those of whose affairs the management is incumbent on him: (K:) or a subject of praise, and of blame, of a man, (Abu-l-'Abbás, IAth, O, K,) whether it be in himself or in his ancestors or in those of whose affairs the management is incumbent on him: (IAth:) or those things by the mention whereof with praise or dispraise a man rises or falls; which may be things whereby he is characterized exclusively of his ancestors; and it may be that his ancestors are mentioned in such a manner that imperfection shall attach to him by reason of the blaming of them. respecting this there is no disagreement among the lexicologists, except IKt [whose objection see in what follows]: (Abu-l-'Abbás, O:) or (accord. to some, S) grounds of pretension to respect on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of one's ancestors, &c., (حَسَبٌ, S, Msb, K,) and eminence, or nobility, (شَرَفٌ,) in which one glories. (K.) You say, فُلَانٌ كَرِيمُ العِرْضِ Such a one is generous, or noble, in respect of حَسَب: and هُوَ ذُو عِرْضٍ he is a possessor of حَسَب; and of شَرَف. (TA.) b7: Sometimes, Ancestors are meant by it. (A'Obeyd, K.) Thus you say, شَتَمَ فُلَانٌ عِرْضَ فُلَانٍ, meaning Such a one spoke evil of the ancestors of such a one. (A'Obeyd.) And فُلَانٌ جَرِبُ العِرْضِ Such a one is base, or ignoble, in respect of ancestry. (TA.) IKt disallows this signification, asserting عِرْضٌ to have no other signification than those of a man's نَفْس and his بَدَن: (O, * TA:) but I Amb says that this is an error; as is shown by the saying of Aboo-Miskeen Ed-Dárimee, رُبَّ مَهْزُولٍ سَمِينٌ عِرْضُهُ وَسَمِينِ الجِسْمِ مَهْزُولُ الحَسَبْ

in which عِرْض cannot be syn. with بَدَن and جِسْم, for, were it so, it would involve a contradiction; the meaning being only Many a person meagre in respect of his body is noble [or great] in respect of his ancestry; [and fat in respect of the body, meagre in respect of grounds of pretension to honour on account of the honourable deeds or qualities of his ancestors, &c.:] and by Mohammad's using the expression دَمُهُ وَعِرْضُهُ; for if عِرْض were [here] syn. with نَفْس, it had sufficed to say دمه without عرضه. (O, TA.) b8: Also A natural disposition that is commended. (IAth, K.) b9: And A good action. (TA.) A5: Also One who speaks evil of men (يَعْتَرِضُهُمْ) falsely; (O, K;) applied to a man: and so with عِرْضَنٌ applied to a woman: (O, K: *) so too ↓ ة applied to a man, and with عَرْضَنٌ to a woman. (TA.) عَرَضٌ A thing that happens to, befalls, or occurs to, a man; such as disease, and the like; (S, O, K;) as disquietude of mind, and a state of distraction of the mind or attention: or a misfortune, such as death, and disease, and the like: (TA:) or an event that happens to a man, whereby he is tried: (As:) or a thing that happens to a man, whereby he is impeded; such as disease, or a theft: (Lh:) or a bane, or cause of mischief, that occurs in a thing; as also ↓ عَارِضٌ: (TA:) [both signify also an accident of any kind:] pl. أَعْرَاضٌ. (TA.) b2: A thing's befalling, or hitting, unexpectedly. (O, K. [I follow the reading of the O, which is that of the K as given in the TA, and of my MS. copy of the K, أَنْ يُصِيبَ الشَّىْءُ عَلَى غِرَّةٍ; in preference to that in the CK, أَنْ تُصِيبَ الشَّىْءَ عَلَى غِرَّةٍ.]) You say, أَصَابَهُ سَهْمُ عَرَضٍ (S, A, O, K *) and سَهْمٌ عَرَضٌ, (A, TA,) and حَجَرُ عَرَضٍ (S, O) and حَجَرٌ عَرَضٌ, (TA,) [A random arrow, and a random stone, or] an arrow, and a stone, aimed at another, hit him: (S, O, K:) such as hits, or falls upon, a man without any one's shooting it, or casting it, is not thus termed. (L.) And مَا جَآءَكَ مِنَ الرَّأْىِ عَرَضًا خَيْرٌ مِمَّا جَآءَكَ مُسْتَكْرَهًا, i. e. [The opinion] that comes to thee without consideration, or thought, [is better than that which comes to thee forced.] (TA.) And عُلِّقْتُهَا عَرَضًا I became attached to her (S, O, K) accidentally, or unintentionally, (S, O,) in consequence of her presenting herself to me (ISk, S, O, K) as a thing occurring without my seeking it. (ISk.) [See an ex., in a verse of Antarah, cited in the first paragraph of art. زعم; and another, in a verse of El-Aashà, cited in the first paragraph of art. علق.] b3: A thing that is not permanent: (Mgh, O, B, K.) so in the conventional language of the Muslim theologians: (Mgh:) opposed to جَوْهَرٌ: (TA:) or hence metaphorically applied by the Muslim theologians to (tropical:) a thing that has not permanence unless in, or by, the substance; [i. e., in the language of old logicians, an accident; an essential, and an accidental (as meaning a non-essential), property, or quality; or what modern logicians call a mode; whether it be, in their language, an essential mode or an accidental mode; which latter only they term “ an accident; ”] as colour, and taste: (B:) or, in the conventional language of the Muslim theologians (المُتَكَلِّمُون [expl. in the TA as signifying “ the philosophers,” from whom, however, they are generally distinguished]), a thing that subsists in, or by, another thing; (O, K;) as colours, and tastes, and smells, and sounds, and powers, and wills: (O: [and the like is said in the Msb:]) or, in philosophy, a thing that exists in its subject, or substance, and ceases therefrom without the latter's becoming impaired or annihilated; and also such as does not cease therefrom: the former kind being such as tawniness occasioned by an altered state of the body, and yellowness of complexion, and motion of a thing moving; and the latter kind, such as the blackness of pitch, and of [the beads called] سَبَج, and of the crow. (L.) b4: [Hence, An appertenance of any kind. b5: Hence also,] The frail goods (حُطَام) of the present world or state; (As, O, K;) and what a man acquires thereof: (As, O:) [so called as being not permanent:] or worldly goods or commodities, (AO, Msb,) of whatever kind, are thus called, with fet-h to the ر: (AO:) and any property or wealth, little or much, (S, O, K,) is thus called, (K,) or is called عَرَضُ الدُّنْيَا. (S, O.) See also عَرْضٌ, expl. as signifying “ a commodity,” or “ commodities ” or “ goods. ” One says, الدُّنْيَا عَرَضٌ حَاضِرٌ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا البَرُّ وَالفَاجِرُ [The world is a present frail good: the righteous and the unrighteous eat thereof]: (S, O, TA:) i. e. it has no permanence: a trad. related by Sheddád Ibn-Ows. (TA.) And in another trad. related by the same, it is said, لَيْسَ الغِنَى عَنْ كَثْرَةِ العَرَضِ

إِنَّمَا الغِنَى غِنَى النَّفْسِ [Richness is not from the abundance of worldly goods: richness is only richness of the soul]. (O, TA.) One says also, قَدْ فَاتَهُ العَرَضُ, (Yoo, S, L,) and ↓ العَرْضُ, but the former is the more approved, (L,) [The property, &c., (but see another meaning below,) had escaped him], which is from عَرْضُ الجُنْدِ, [see عَرَضَ,] like as one says قَبَضَ قَبْضًا and قَدْ أَلْقَاهُ فِى القَبَضِ: (Yoo, S:) [which seems to indicate that عَرَضٌ properly signifies مَعْرُوضٌ, like as قَبَضٌ signifies مَقْبُوضٌ.] b6: Booty; spoil. (O, K.) So in the Kur ix. 42: (O:) or it there signifies b7: i. q. مَطْلَبٌ [app. meaning A thing sought, or desired; and object of desire; rather than a place where a thing is sought]. (TA.) b8: I. q. طَمَعٌ [app. meaning A thing that is eagerly desired, or coveted: and also eager desire; or covetousness]. (AO, O, K.) So explained by some as occurring in the saying قَدْ فَاتَهُ العَرَضُ, mentioned above. (TA.) And the following verse is also cited as an ex., مَنْ كَانَ يَرْجُو بَقَآءً لَا نَفَادَ لَهُ فَلَا يَكُنْ عَرَضُ الدُّنْيَا لَهُ شَجَنَا

[Whoso hopeth for continuance without cessation, let not the eager desire of worldly goods be to him a cause of anxiety]. (O, TA.) b9: A gift. (TA.) See also عُرَاضَةٌ. b10: هُوَ عَلَى عَرَضِ الوُجُودِ signifies عَلَى إِمْكَانِهِ [app. meaning It is in the condition of possibility of existence; for على seems to be here used in the sense of فِى, as in some other instances]; from أَعْرَضَ لَهُ meaning “ it became within his power,” &c. (Mgh.) And one says, هُوَ بِعَرَضٍ

أَنْ يَضِيعَ [He is exposed, or liable, to perish]. (Mgh voce ضَيَاعٌ.) b11: جَعَلَ الشَّىْءَ عَرَضًا لِلشَّىْءِ, or عَرْضًا, accord. to different copies of the K: see 2, in the latter half of the paragraph, in two places.

عُرُضٌ, (L, TA,) in the K, erroneously, ↓ عُرْضٌ, (TA,) A certain manner of going along, (K, TA,) towards one side, (TA,) approved in horses, but disapproved in camels. (K, TA.) b2: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ عَنْ عُرُضٍ: b3: and رَأَيْتُهُ فِى عُرُضِ النَّاسِ: see عُرْضٌ.

عُرْضَةٌ is of the measure فُعْلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعولٌ, like قُبْضَةٌ; (Bd, ii. 224;) and is applied to A thing that is set as an obstacle in the way of a thing: (Bd, TA:) and also to a thing that is exposed to a thing: (Bd:) or that is set as a butt, like the butt of archers. (TA.) You say, جَعَلْتُ فُلَانًا عُرْضَةً لِكَذَا, meaning نَصَبْتُهُ لَهُ; (S, O, K; *) i. e. I set such a one as an obstacle to such a thing: or as a butt for such a thing. (TA.) And هُوَ لَهُ دُونَهُ عُرْضَةٌ He is an obstacle to him intervening in the way of it. (S, O.) And فُلَانٌ عُرْضَةٌ لِلنَّاسِ Such a one is [a butt to men; i. e.] a person whom men cease not to revile: (S, O, Msb, K:) or a person to whom men address themselves to do evil, and whom they revile. (Az, TA.) And هُمْ ضُعَفَآءُ عُرْضَةٌ لِكُلِّ مُتَنَاوِلٍ

They are weak persons; persons who offer themselves as a prey to any one who would take them. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur [ii. 224], وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا اللّٰهُ عُرْضَةً لِأَيْمَانِكُمْ أَنْ تَبَرُّوا وَتَتَّقُوا وَتُصْلِحُوا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ, (S, * &c.,) meaning نَصْبًا; (S, TA;) admitting the two significations of an obstacle and a butt: (TA:) i. e. And make not God an obstacle between you and that which may bring you near unto God, &c.: (O, K:) or make not God an obstacle to the performance of your oaths to be pious (O, Bd) and to fear God and to make reconciliation between men: or make not God an obstacle, because of your oaths, to your being pious &c.: (Bd:) or make not the swearing by God an obstacle to your being pious [&c.]: (Fr:) and Zj says the like of this: (L:) or عُرْضَةٌ signifies intervention with respect to good and evil; (Abu-l- 'Abbás, O, K;) and the meaning is, do not intervene by swearing by God every little while so as not to be pious &c.: (O, K, * TA:) or make not God an object of your oaths, by ordinary and frequent swearing by Him, (Bd,) or a butt for your oaths, like the butt of archers, (TA,) in order that ye may be pious &c.; for the habitual swearer emboldens himself against God, and is not pious &c.: (Bd:) or, as some say, the meaning is make not the mention of God a means of strengthening your oaths.

Refractoriness, and a random or heedless manner of going, by reason of pride: in a horse, the going sideways: and in a she-camel, the state of being untrained: (TA:) and in a man, [so expressly shown in the S and TA; but in the CK, قِيلَ is erroneously put for فِيكَ;] what resembles roughness, ungentleness, or awkwardness; want of due care, by reason of haste; (syn. عَجْرَفِيَّةٌ;) and pride; and refractoriness. (Az, S, O, K.) A2: [See also عَرْضِىٌّ.]

[See also عِرَِضَّى.]) One says, يَمْشِى العِرَضْنَةَ and ↓ العِرَضْنَى He goes along with a proud gait, (S, O, K,) inclining towards one side, (S, O,) by reason of his briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness.

(S, O, K. *) The dim. of ↓ عِرَضْنَى is ↓ عُرَيْضِنٌ; the ن being retained because it is a letter of quasi-coordination, and the ى suppressed because it is not such.

(TA.) عِرَضْنى: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

عُرَاضٌ: see عَرِيضٌ, in four places: A2: see also عُرْضٌ, in the latter half of the paragraph.

(Ham ubi suprà.) Hence the phrase in a trad. of Aboo-Hureyreh, فَأَخَذَ فِى عَرُوضٍ آخَرَ (assumed tropical:) And he took another way of speech. (TA.) b4: The place that is over against one, or on the opposite side to one, as he goes along. (S, O, K.) A2: A she-camel that takes to a side, or tract, different from that which her rider would traverse; for which reason this epithet is applied to her: (O:) or that goes to the right and left, and does not keep to the road: (IAth:) or that has not been trained: (S, O, K:) or that has received some training, but is not thoroughly trained: (ISk:) or such as is termed ↓ عُرْضِيَّة, stubborn in the head, but submissive in her middle part; that is loaded; and then the other loaded camels are driven on; and if a man ride her, she goes straight forward, and her rider has not the power of exercising his own free will [in managing her]. (Sh.) To such a camel, 'Omar likened a class of his subjects. (TA.) And 'Amr Ibn-Ahmar El-Báhilee says, أُخِبُّ ذَلُولًا أَوْ عَرُوضًا أَرُوضُهَا [I make a submissive one to go the pace termed خَبَب, or an untrained one I train]; meaning that he recites two poems; one of which he has made easy, and the other whereof is difficult: J gives a different reading, أُسِيرُ عَسِيرًا, meaning أُسَيِّرُ; with the same explanation that is given above, of the former reading. (IB, O.) b2: A camel, (S, O, TA,) in the K, erroneously, a sheep or goat, (TA,) that eats the thorns (S, O, K, TA) when herbage is unattainable by him.

كَلَامِهِ ↓ مِعْرَاضِ and فى لَحْنِ كلام and فى نَحْوِ كلامه signify the same. (Msb.) [See also مِعْرَاضٌ.]

A7: هٰذِهِ المَسْأَلَة عَرُوضُ هٰذِهِ This question is the like of this. (TA.) [See also عِرَاضٌ.]

A8: عَرُوضٌ also signifies The transverse pole or piece of wood (عَارضَة) which is in the middle of a tent, and which is its main support. (Aboo-Is-hák.) b2: And hence, (Aboo-Is-hák,) The middle portion [or foot] of a verse; (Aboo-Is-hák, O;) for the بَيْت of poetry is constructed after the manner of the بَيْت inhabited by the Arabs, which is of pieces of cloth; and as the عروض of the latter is the strongest part, so should that of the former be; and accordingly we see that a deficiency in the ضَرْب is more frequent than it is in the عروض: (Aboo-Is-hák:) the last foot of the first half or hemistich (S, K) of a verse; (S;) whether perfect or altered: (K:) some make it to be the طَرَائِق of poetry, and its عَمُود: (TA:) [i. e. they liken it to these parts of the tents:] it is fem.: (K:) or sometimes masc.: (L:) the pl. is أَعَارِيضُ; (S, O, K;) contr. to rule, as though pl. of إِعْرِيضٌ; and one may use as its pl. أَعَارِضُ. (S, O.) b3: Also [The science of prosody, or versification;] the science of the rules whereby the perfect measures of Arabic verse are known from those which are broken; (Msb;) the standard whereby verse is measured: (S, O, K:) because it is compared (يُعَارَضُ) therewith: (S, O:) or because what is correct in measure is thereby distinguished from what is broken: (K: [in which some other reasons are added, too futile, in my opinion, to deserve mention: I think it more probable that عروض is used by a synecdoche for شِعْرٌ, as being the most essential part thereof; and then, elliptically, for عِلْمُ العَرُوضِ, which is the more common term for the science:]) it is fem.; and has no pl., because it is a gen. n. (S, O.) A9: See also عَارِضَةٌ; second and two following sentences.

A10: العَرُوضُ is a name of Mekkeh and El-Medeeneh, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) and El-Yemen, (Msb, TA,) with what is around them.

(Msb.) You say, عُرَاضَةٌ and ↓ عُرَاضَةٌ [A broad, or wide, bow].

(TA.) [See also عَرْضٌ and عِرْضٌ.] In the phrase عَارِضٌ مُمْطِرُنَا, in the Kur [xlvi. 23], ممطرنا means مُمْطِرٌ لَنَا; for as being determinate it cannot be an epithet to عَارِضٌ, which is indeterminate: and the like of this the Arabs do only in the instances of nouns derived from verbs; so that you may not say هٰذَا رَجُلٌ غُلَامُنَا. (S, O.) b3: See also عَرْضٌ, in the sentence commencing with “ A mountain,” in two places: b4: and again, shortly after. b5: A gift appearing (As, S, O, K) from a person. (As, S, O.)

مِنْ شُبْهَةٍ ↓ قَلْبِهِ بِأَوَّلِ عَارِضَةٍ, the word عارضة may perhaps be an inf. n., [or a quasi-inf. n.,] like عَاقِبَةٌ and عَافِيَةٌ: (TA:) [so that the meaning may be Doubt makes an impression upon his heart at the first occurrence of dubiousness.] b7: Whatever faces one, of a thing: (TA, and so in some copies of the K: in other copies of the K, this signification is given to ↓ عَارِضَةٌ:) or anything facing one.

(TA.) خَفِيفُ العَارِضَيْنِ means Light, or scanty, in the hair of the two sides of the cheeks, (S, O, Msb,) and of the beard; (O;) being elliptical. (Msb.) But in a certain trad., in which a happy quality of a man is said to be خِفَّةُ عَارِضَيْهِ, the meaning is said to be (tropical:) His activity in praising and glorifying God; i. e. his not ceasing to move the sides of his cheeks by praising and glorifying God. (IAth, on the authority of El-Khattábee; and O.) b12: The side of the neck; (K;) the two sides thereof being called the عَارِضَانِ: (IDrd, O:) pl. as above. (TA.)

(TA [from the O &c.].) A2: عَارِضٌ as applied to a she-camel, or a sheep or goat: see the paragraph next following.

[In the K, in the place of ركوض, we find رَبُوضٌ, which I think a mistake.]) [In Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 555, we find ↓ رَكُوضٌ فِى كُلِّ عَرُوضٍ, which is expl. as meaning Running swiftly in every region; and said to be applied to him who disseminates evil, or mischief, among men.]

A2: A she-camel having a fracture or a disease, (S, O, K,) for which reason it is slaughtered; (S;) as also ↓ عَارِضٌ: (O, K:) and in like manner, a sheep or goat: (TA:) pl. عَوَارِضُ. (S.) It is opposed to عَبِيطٌ, which is one that is slaughtered without its having any malady. (S, O.) One says, بَنُو فُلَانٍ

لَا يَأْكُلُونَ إِلَّا العَوَارِضَ [The sons of such a one do not eat any but camels such as are slaughtered on account of disease]; reproaching them for not slaughtering camels except on account of disease befalling them.

مَحْمِل. (L.) A4: Also, (S, and so in some copies of the K,) or ↓ عَارِضٌ, (as in other copies of the K,) or both, (TA,) Hardiness: (S, K, TA:) and this is what is meant by its being said, in [some copies of] the K, that عَارِضٌ is also syn. with عَارِضَةٌ; (TA;) [for in some copies of the K, after several explanations of العَارِضُ, we find وَالعَارِضَةُ وَالسِّنُّ الَّتِى فِى عُرْضِ الفَمِ; whereas, in other copies, the و before السِّنُّ is omitted:] courage; or courage and energy: (S, K, TA:) power of speech: (S:) perspicuity, or chasteness, of speech; and eloquence: (K, TA:) or the former signifies intuitive knowledge (بَدِيهَةٌ): or determination, resolution, or decision: (A:) and the trimming of speech or language, and the removal of its faults: and good judgment.

(Kh, TA.) أَعْرَاضُ الكَلَامِ: see مِعْرَاضٌ. b2: أَعْرَاضٌ is pl. of عَرْضٌ and of عُرْضٌ and of عِرْضٌ and of عَرَضٌ. b3: أَعْرَاضُ الشَّجَرِ means The upper parts of the trees [or shrubs]. (K.) مَعْرِضٌ The place of the appearance, [or occurrence,] and of the showing, or exhibiting, or manifesting, and of the mentioning, and of the intending, or purposing, of a thing. (Msb.) You say, قَتَلْتُهُ فِى مَعْرِضِ كَذَا I slew him in the place of the appearance [or occurrence &c.] of such a thing. (Msb.) And ذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ إِنَّمَا يَكُونُ فِى مَعْرِضِ التَّعْظِيمِ The praise and glorification of God is only in the place [or case] of the appearance, [or of the manifesting,] and of the intending, or purposing, of magnifying. (Msb.) [And hence, فِى مَعْرِضِ كَذَا also signifies In the time, or case, or on the occasion, of the appearance, &c., of such a thing. and In the state, or condition, or manner, which is indicative of such a thing: thus virtually agreeing with the phrase فِى مِعْرَضِ كَذَا, q. v. infrà.] b2: Also A place for the sale of slaves or beasts. (MA.) A2: And Pasturage that renders the cattle in no need of their being fed with fodder. (TA.) مُعْرِضٌ Anything showing its breadth, or width; [or its side; as also ↓ عَارِضٌ.] (TA.

(Sh.) and Anything putting its breadth, or width, [or side, (as is shown by an explanation of أَعْرَضَ,)] in one's power. (TA.) You say, الشَّىْءُ مُعْرِضٌ لَكَ, meaning The thing is in thy power; apparent to thee; not offering resistance to thee. (IAth, O. *) b2: And طَأْ مُعْرِضًا حَيْثُ شِئْتَ [Tread thou or] put thy feet where thou wilt, fearing nothing, for it is in thy power to do so. (S, O.) b3: اِدَّانَ مُعْرِضًا (occurring in a saying of 'Omar, K, or, as some relate it, دَانَ مُعْرِضًا, K in art. دين,) means He bought upon credit, or borrowed, or sought or demanded a loan, [doing so (TA)] of whomsoever he could, (Az, S, A, Mgh, O,) not caring what might be the consequence: (S, O:) or addressing himself to any one who came in his way: (Sh, K:) or turning away from such as said Thou shalt not buy on credit, or borrow: (IAth:) or avoiding payment: (TA:) or from any quarter that was easy and practicable to him, without caring, (O, K,) and without being perplexed: (O:) or he incurred the debt without caring for not paying it, or for what might be the consequence: (As:) or he contracted a debt with every one who presented himself to him: (K in art. دين:) Sh says that the making معرضا to signify مُمْكِنًا is improbable; because it is in the accus. case as a denotative of state with respect to [the agent implied in the verb] ادّان; and if you explain it as meaning he took it from him who enabled him, then معرضا applies to him whom he accosts, for he is the ممكن; [he suggests also, that the meaning may be he bought upon credit, or borrowed, largely; for] he adds that معرضا may be from أَعْرَضَ ثَوْبُ المَلْبَسِ, signifying اِتَّسَعَ and عَرُضَ. (TA.) b4: أَرْضٌ مُعْرِضَةٌ, or مُعْرَضَةٌ, (K, TA, [the former only in the CK,]) means Land wherein is herbage which the camels, or the like, depasture [app. at random] when traversing it. (O, K.) A2: See also مُعَرِّضٌ, last sentence.

مِعْرَضٌ Garments in which girls are displayed: (S:) or a garment in which a girl is displayed: (O, K:) or a garment in which girls are displayed on the wedding-night; which is the goodliest of their apparel, or of the goodliest thereof: (Msb:) and a garment in which a girl is shown, or displayed, to the purchaser: (TA:) or the shirt in which a male slave, and a girl, is shown, displayed, exposed, or offered for sale. (Har p. 129.) [and hence, فِى مِعْرَضِ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) In the guise of such a thing, used tropically, virtually agreeing with the phrase فِى مَعْرِضِ كَذَا in a sense expl. above.] See also مِعْرَاضٌ, last sentence but one.

مُعَرَّضٌ [pass. part. n. of 2, q. v.] Camels (نَعَمٌ) branded with the mark called عِرَاض. (S, O, K.) A2: Also Flesh-meat not well and thoroughly cooked: (ISk, S, O, K:) occurring in a verse (S, O) of Es-Suleyk Ibn-Es-Sulakeh, (O,) as some relate it; but accord. to others it is with ص; (S, O;) and this latter is the more correct. (O.) A3: مُعَرَّضَةٌ A virgin before she is veiled, or concealed: for she is once exhibited to the people of the tribe in order that some one or more may become desirous of her, and then they veil her, or conceal her. (TA.) مُعَرِّضٌ [act. part. n. of 2, q. v.]. A poet describes a she-camel carrying dates, and having outgone the other camels, so that the crows, or ravens, alighted upon her, and ate the dates, as being مِنْ مُعَرِّضَاتِ الغِرْبَانِ, as though she were of those feeding the crows, or ravens, of what is termed عُرَاضَة, q. v. (S.) A2: Also the circumciser of a boy: (K:) [or] so ↓ مُعْرِضٌ. (O:) مِعْرَاضٌ An arrow having no feathers (As, S, Mgh, O, Msb, K) nor head, (As,) slender at the two extremities, and thick in the middle, (O, K,) being in form like the wooden implement wherewith cotton is separated from its seeds, or is separated and loosened [by striking therewith the string of a bow], (O, TA,) which goes sideways, (Mgh, [in the O and TA, مُسْتَوِيًا, app. a mistranscription, for مُسْتَعْرِضًا,]) striking with its عَرْض [or middle part, unless this be a mistake for عُرْض, or side], (Mgh, [in my copy of which, عرض is without any vowel-sign,] and K,) not with its extremity: (Mgh, K:) sometimes, it strikes with its thick middle part in such a manner that it breaks and crushes what it strikes so that it is like the thing that is beaten to death; and if the object of the chase be near to it, it strikes it with the place of the head thereof: if it make a hole, the game smitten with it may be eaten; but not if it strike with a middle part (بِعَرْضٍ). (O, TA.) A2: An oblique, indirect, obscure, ambiguous, or equivocal, mode of speech; as when thou askest a man, “Hast thou seen such a one? ” and he, having seen him, and disliking to lie, answers, “ Verily such a one is seen: ” (Msb:) from عَرَّضَ [q. v.]: (Msb, El-Munáwee: the latter in explaining a trad., q. v. infrà:) i. q. تَوْرِيَةٌ [signifying as above; or the pretending one thing and meaning another; or the using a word, an expression, or a phrase, which has an obvious meaning, and intending thereby another meaning to which it applies but which is contrary to the obvious one]; the original meaning of which is concealment: (Msb:) or language whereof one part resembles another in the meanings: (O, TA: [in the TA immediately follows the exemplification cited above, from the Msb; whence it seems that this explanation is itself somewhat of a معراض, meaning what it does not clearly express:]) or المَعَارِيضُ فِى الكَلَامِ [thus, with the pl. form, in two copies of the S, and in the TA,] signifies التَّوْرِيَةُ بِالشَّىْءِ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ [the pretending, or making believe, a thing instead of another thing]: (S:) and مَعَارِضُ الكَلَامِ and ↓ أَعْرَاضُهُ signify the same as مَعَارِيضُهُ. (TA.) [مَعَارِضُ is a contraction of مَعَارِيضُ, like as مِعْرضٌ is said to be of مِعْرَاضٌ when syn. therewith.] It is said in a prov., (S,) a trad., (TA,) إِنَّ فِى

المَعَارِيضِ لَمَنْدُوحَةً عَنِ الكَذِبِ [Verily, in oblique, indirect, obscure, ambiguous, or equivocal, modes of speech is ample scope, freedom, or liberty, (سَعَةٌ, S,) to avoid lying; or, as is said in the L in art. ندح, that which renders one in no need of lying]. (S, Msb.) One says also, عَرَفْتُهُ فِى

مِعْرَاضِ كَلَامِهِ, expl. voce عَرُوضٌ which see in three places, and كَلَامِهِ ↓ فِى مِعْرَضِ, rejecting the ا: this latter is said by some of the learned to be a metaphorical expression, from مِعْرَضٌ signifying the “ garment in which girls are displayed,” as though the meaning were (tropical:) [I knew it] in the form, or manner, and guise, and mould, of his speech; but this does not obtain in all kinds of speech; for it may not be said in cases of reviling; indeed it would be bad, in these cases, to use as a metaphor the garment of adornment: therefore the proper way is to say that مِعْرَضٌ is a contraction of مِعْرَاضٌ. (Msb.) One also says الأَلْفَاظُ مَعَارِيضُ المَعَانِى (tropical:) [Words are the robes of meanings]: and this phrase also is [said to be] taken from مِعْرَضٌ signifying the “ garment in which a girl is displayed; ” because words adorn meanings. (TA.) مُعَارِضٌ A camel that does not go straightly in the file, or series, but takes to the right and left: (A:) or a she camel such as is termed عَلُوق; that makes a show of affection with her nose [by smelling her young one], (تَرْأَمُ بِأَنْفِهَا,) and refuses to yield her milk. (AA, O, K.) سَحَابٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فِى الأُفُقِ: i. q. عَارِضٌ, q. v. b2: [جُمْلَةٌ مُعْتَرِضَةٌ A parenthetic clause.] b3: فُلَانٌ مُعْتَرِضٌ فِى خُلُقِهِ [Such a one is habitually cross, or perverse, in his disposition, in every case,] is said of a man when everything of his affairs displeases thee. (TA.) b4: هَوًى مُعْتَرِضٌ Love that befalls at first sight, and captivates the heart at once unless it quit it quickly as it seized it quickly. (Ham p. 551.)

(Ham p. 613.) And one says, بَاتَ يَعْسِفُ اللَّيْلَ, inf. n. as above, He passed the night journeying therein without direction, seeking a thing. (Msb.) And عَسْفٌ [alone] signifies The going round about by night seeking an object of quest, or desire. (O, K.) [See also 2, and 4.]

[How long shall I] work for thee, (O, TA,) and earn, or gain, for thee, going repeatedly to and fro for thee like him who goes round about in the night seeking an object of quest, or desire? (TA.) b9: And عَسَفَ ضَيْعَتَهُمْ, (K,) aor. as above, (O,) He kept, minded, or managed, their estate, and ordered its affairs in their stead, (O, K, TA,) and went to and fro occupied in that which should put it [or keep it] in a good, or right, state.

(IAar, O, K.) 5 تَعَسَّفَ see 1, first quarter, in three places: and see 2. b2: تَعَسُّفٌ in language is from عَسَفَ الفَلَاةَ, [and the like,] expl. above: (Mgh:) it signifies [in its general application The using, or use of, a discommendable license in language: and particularly vague, or vagueness of, expression; or] the making language to accord with [or to hear] a meaning which it does not plainly indicate.

(O.) 2 عشّقهُ is used in the present day as meaning He made him to be affected with عِشْق; but is probably post-classical.]5 تعشّق He affected عِشْق: (S, O, K: * [in the K, تعشّقهُ, in which the pronoun app. refers to العِشْق, is erroneously put for تعشّق:]) or he showed, or exhibited, عِشْق.

(TA.) عَشَقٌ The لَبْلَاب [a species of dolichos, the dolichos lablab of Linn.]; one of which is called عَشَقَةٌ: IDrd says, the [common] people assert that the عَشَقَة is the لَبْلَابَة: (O:) accord. to Zj, (TA,) عَشَقَةٌ signifies a certain tree [or plant] that becomes green, and then becomes slender and yellow: (K, TA:) and عَشَقٌ is its pl.
