ظلم

1 ظَلَمَ, aor. ـِ has for its inf. n. ظَلْمٌ, (M, Msb, K, and so in some copies of the S,) or ↓ ظُلْمٌ, (so in other copies of the S,) or both, (T,) or the latter is a simple subst., (T, M, Msb, TA,) which is put in the place of the inf. n., (TA, [and the same is indicated in the T and K by the saying that the proper inf. n. is with fet-h,]) and ↓ مَظْلِمَةٌ, (S, TA,) or this is likewise a simple subst., (Msb,) and ↓ مَظْلَمَةٌ, [or this also is a simple subst.,] and ↓ ظِلَامٌ also is said to be an inf. n. like ظُلْمٌ, these two being like لِبَاسٌ and لُبْسٌ, [or it is a simple subst. like as ظُلْمٌ is said to be, or it is an inf. n. of 3, as such occurring in the middle of this paragraph,] or, accord. to Kr, it is pl. of ظُلْمٌ [like as رِمَاحٌ is pl. of رُمْحٌ]: (TA:) [ظَلَمَ when intrans. generally means He did wrong; or acted wrongfully, unjustly, injuriously, or tyrannically: and when trans., he wronged; or treated, or used, wrongfully, unjustly, injuriously, or tyrannically; or he misused:] accord. to most of the lexicologists, (Er-Rághib, TA,) primarily, (As, T, S, Msb,) ↓ الظُّلْمُ signifies the putting a thing in a place not its own; putting it in a wrong place; misplacing it: (As, T, S, M, Er-Rághib, Msb, K:) and it is by exceeding or by falling short, or by deviating from the proper time and place: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or the acting in whatsoever way one pleases in the disposal of the property of another: and the transgressing the proper limit: (El-Munáwee, TA:) [i. e.] the transgressing the proper limit much or little: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or, accord. to some, it primarily signifies النَّقْص [as meaning the making to suffer loss, or detriment]: (MF, TA:) and it is said to be of three kinds, between man and God, and between man and man, and between a man and himself; every one of which three is really لِلنَّفْسِ [i. e. a wrongdoing to oneself]: (Er-Rághib, TA:) [when it is used as a simple subst.,] the pl. of ظُلْمٌ, accord. to Kr. is ظِلَامٌ, as mentioned above, and ↓ ظُلَامٌ, with damm, is said to be syn. with ظُلْمٌ, or a pl. thereof, [of an extr. form, commonly regarded as that of a quasi-pl. n.,] like رُخَالٌ. (TA.) One says, مَنِ اسْتَرْعَى الذِّئْبَ فَقَدْ ظَلَمَ [He who asks, or desires, the wolf to keep guard surely does wrong, or puts a thing in a wrong place]: a prov. (S, Msb.) And مَنْ أَشْبَهَ أَبَاهُ فَمَا ظَلَمَ, (As, T, S,) a prov., meaning [Whoso resembles his father in a quality, or an attribute,] he has not put the likeness in a wrong place. (As, T. [See art. شبه.]) وَلَمْ تَظْلِمْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا, in the Kur [xviii. 31], means وَلَمْ تَنْقُصْ [i. e. And made not aught thereof to suffer loss, or detriment]: (M, K:) and in like manner Fr explains the saying in the Kur [ii. 54 and vii. 160], وَمَا ظَلَمُونَا وَلٰكِنْ كَانُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ يَظْلِمُونَ And they made not us to suffer loss, or detriment, by that which they did, but themselves they made to suffer loss, or detriment: (T, TA:) in which sense it seems to be indicated in the A that the verb is tropical. (TA.) b2: It is also trans. by means of بِ; as in the phrase in the Kur [vii. 101 and xvii. 61] فَظَلَمُوا بِهَا, because the meaning is كَفَرُوا [i. e. And they disbelieved in them], referring to the آيَات [or signs]; (M, TA; *) the verb having this meaning tropically or by implication; or being thus made trans. because implying the meaning of التَّكْذِيب: or [the meaning is, and they wronged themselves, or the people, because of them; for], as some say, the ب is causative, and the objective complement, i. e. أَنْفُسَهُمْ, or النَّاسَ, is suppressed. (TA.) b3: and it is doubly trans. by itself: (TA:) one says, ظَلَمَهُ حَقَّهُ [He made him to suffer loss, or detriment, of his right, or due; or defrauded, or despoiled, or deprived, him of it]; and حَقَّهُ ↓ تظلّمهُ: (M, K:) [and] you say, فُلَانٌ ↓ تَظَلَّمَنِى, [as well as تظلّمنى مَالِى, occurring in a verse cited in the M,] meaning ظَلَمَنِى مَالِى [i. e. Such a one caused me to suffer loss, &c., of my property]. (S.) It is said in the Kur [iv. 44], إِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا يَظْلِمُ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ, for لَا يَظْلِمُهُمْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةِ, and the verb is made doubly trans. because the meaning is لَا يَسْلُبُهُمْ [i. e. Verily God will not despoil them, or deprive them, of the weight of one of the smallest of ants, or a grub of an ant, &c.]: or مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ, may be put in the place of the inf. n., for ظَلْمًا حَقِيرًا كَمِثْقَالِ ذَرَّةٍ [i. e. with a paltry spoliation or deprivation, such as the weight of one of the smallest of ants, &c.]. (M.) b4: One says also, أَرَادَ ظِلَامَهُ and مُظَالَمَتَهُ, [these two nouns being inf. ns. of ↓ ظَالَمَهُ, or the former, as mentioned above, is, accord. to some, an inf. n. of ظَلَمَ,] meaning ظُلْمَهُ or ظَلْمَهُ [i. e. He desired the wronging, &c., of him]. (M, K.) b5: ظَلَمَهُ, inf. n. ظُلْمٌ [or ظَلْمٌ?], also means He imposed upon him a thing that was above his power, or ability. (TA.) And يُظْلَمُ He is asked for a thing that is above his power, or ability. (S.) b6: And one says, ظَلَمَ البَعِيرَ (tropical:) He slaughtered the camel without disease. (S, K, TA.) And ظُلِمَتِ النَّاقَةُ (assumed tropical:) The she-camel was slaughtered without disease: or was covered without her desiring the stallion. (M.) And ظَلَمَ الحِمَارُ الأَتَانَ (tropical:) The he-ass leaped the she-ass (K, TA) before her time: (TA:) or when she was pregnant: (K, TA:) so in the A. (TA.) b7: And ظَلَمَ الوَطْبَ, (S, K,) inf. n. ظُلْمٌ [or ظَلْمٌ?], (S,) (tropical:) He gave to drink of the milk of his skin before its becoming thick (S, K, TA) and its butter's coming forth. (TA. [And the like is said in the T and M.]) And ظَلَمَ القَوْمَ (assumed tropical:) He gave to drink to the people, or party, (T, M, K,) milk before it had attained to maturity, (T, K,) as related on the authority of A 'Obeyd, (T,) or [milk such as is termed] ظَلِيمَة: (M:) but this is a mistake: it is related on the authority of Ahmad Ibn-Yahyà [i. e. Th] and AHeyth that one says, ظَلَمْتُ السِّقَآءَ, and اللَّبَنَ, meaning I drank, or gave to drink, what was in the skin, and the milk, before its attaining to maturity and the extracting of its butter: accord. to ISk, one says, ظَلَمْتُ وَطْبِىَ القَوْمَ, [but I think that it is correctly ظَلَمْتُ وَطْبِى لِلْقَومِ, agreeably with a verse cited in the T and M,] meaning I gave to drink [to the people, or party,] the contents of my milk-skin before the thickening thereof. (T.) And ظَلَمْتُهُ is said of anything as meaning (assumed tropical:) I did it hastily, or hurriedly, before its proper time, or season. (M, TA.) b8: ظَلَمْتُ الحَوْضَ means (assumed tropical:) I made the watering-trough in a place in which watering-troughs should not be made. (ISk, T.) And ظَلَمَ الأَرْضَ means (tropical:) He dug the ground in what was not the place of digging: (M, K, TA:) or when it had not been dug before. (M.) And, said of a torrent, (assumed tropical:) It furrowed the earth in a place that was not furrowed. (T.) And ظَلَمَ البِطَاحَ, said of a torrent, (tropical:) It reached the بطاح [or wide water-courses containing fine, or broken, pebbles, &c.], not having reached them before. (A, TA.) And ظَلَمَ الوَادِى (tropical:) The water of the valley reached a place that it had not reached before. (Fr, T, S, K, TA.) b9: When men have added upon the grave other than its own earth, لَا تَظْلِمُوا (tropical:) [Transgress not ye the proper limit] is said to them. (TA.) b10: And one says, لَا تَظْلِمْ وَضَحَ الطَّرِيقِ (assumed tropical:) Turn not thou from the main part, or the beaten track, of the road. (M.) And لَا تَظْلِمْ عَنْهُ شَيْئَا (assumed tropical:) Turn not thou from it at all. (T.) And لَزِمَ الطَّرِيقَ فَلَمْ يَظْلِمْهُ (assumed tropical:) [He kept to the road, and] did not turn from it to the right and left. (TA.) b11: And مَا ظَلَمَكَ

أَنْ تَفْعَلَ (T, K, TA) (tropical:) What has prevented thy doing (K, TA) such a thing? (TA.) A man complained to Abu-l-Jarráh of his suffering indigestion from food that he had eaten, and he said to him, مَا ظَلَمَكَ أَنْ تَقِىْءَ (assumed tropical:) [What has prevented thy vomiting?]. (Fr, T.) And one says, مَا ظَلَمَكَ عَنْ كَذَا (assumed tropical:) What has prevented thee from such a thing? (T.) Respecting the saying قَالَ بَلَى يَا مَىَّ وَاليَوْمُ ظَلَمْ [addressed by a man to a woman who had invited him to visit her], Fr says, they say that the meaning is حَقًّا [Truly, or in truth; i. e. He said, Yes, O Meiya, truly, or in truth, I will visit thee]; and it is a prov.; (T;) or اليَوْمُ ظَلَمَ, or بَلَى وَاليَوْمُ ظَلَمَ, is a prov.; (Meyd;) and thus it was expl. by IAar, as used in the manner of an oath: but Fr says, in my opinion the meaning is, and a day in which is a cause of prevention shall not prevent me: [so that the words of the hemistich above may be rendered, he said, Yes, O Meiya, though the day present an obstacle, for I will overcome every obstacle]: (T:) accord. to Kr, قَدِمَ فُلَانٌ وَاليَوْمُ ظَلَمَ means Such a one came truly, or in truth: [or it may be rendered such a one came though the day presented an obstacle:] but in the saying إِنَّ الفِرَاقَ اليَوْمَ وَاليَوْمُ ظَلَمْ the meaning is said by some to be وَاليَوْمُ ظَلَمَنَا [i. e. Verily separation is to-day, and the day has wronged (us)]: or, as some say, ظلم here means, has put the thing in a wrong place: (M:) accord. to ISk, the phrase وَاليَوْمُ ظَلَم means[And, or but, or though,] the day has put the affair in a wrong place. (T.) [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 911.]

A2: ظَلِمَ, said of the night: see 4.2 ظلّمهُ, inf. n. تَظْلِيمٌ, (T, S, &c.,) He told him that he was ظَالِم [i. e. doing wrong or acting wrongfully &c., or a wrongdoer]: (T:) or he attributed, or imputed, to him ظُلْم [i. e. wrongdoing, &c.]. (S, M, Msb, K.) b2: And He (a judge) exacted justice for him from his wronger, and aided him against him. (T.) 3 ظَاْلَمَ see 1, in the middle of the paragraph.4 اظلم, said of the night, (Fr, T, S, M, Msb, K,) and ↓ ظَلِمَ, (Fr, T, S, K,) the latter with kesr, (S,) like سَمِعَ, (K,) [erroneously written in the TT as from the M ظَلَمَ,] It became dark; (S, K;) or it became black; (M;) or it came with its darkness. (Msb.) It is said in the Kur [ii. 19], وَإِذَا أَظْلَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ قَامُوا [And when it becomes dark to them they stand still]; the verb being intrans.: or, accord. to the Ksh, and Bd follows it, it may be trans. [so that the meaning is, and when He makes their place dark &c.]; as is shown by another reading, which is أُظْلِمُوا: accord. to AHei, it is known by transmission as only intrans.; but Z makes it to be trans. by itself; Ibn-Es-Saláh affirms it to be trans. and intrans.: and Az [so in the TA, but correctly ISd, in the M,] mentions the saying, تَكَلَّمَ فَأَظْلَمَ عَلَيْنَا البَيعتَ (assumed tropical:) [He spoke, and made dark to us the house, or chamber, or tent], meaning he made us to hear what we disliked, or hated, the verb being trans. (TA.) b2: And أَظْلَمُوا They entered upon the ظَلَام [or darkness, or beginning of night]: (S, M, Msb, K:) or, as in the Mufradát [of Er-Rághib], they became in darkness. (TA.) b3: And they said, مَا أَظْلَمَهُ and ما أَضْوَأَهُ [How dark is it! and How light, or bright, is it!]; which is anomalous. (S, TA.) A2: And اظلم الثَّغْرُ The front teeth glistened. (T, K.) Hence the saying [of a poet], إِذَا مَا اجْتَلَى الرَّائِى إِلَيْهَا بِطَرْفِهِ غُرُوبَ ثَنَايَاهَا أَضَآءَ وَأَظْلَمَا [as though meaning, When the beholder of her with his eye looks at the fineness, or sharpness, (but غُرُوب is variously explained,) of her central teeth, it shines brightly, and glistens: but Az plainly indicates another meaning; i. e., he sees (lit. lights on, or finds,) brightness and lustre; for he immediately adds, without the intervention of وَ or أَوْ, evidently in relation to this verse,] أَضَآءَ

أَىْ أَصَابَ ضَوْءًا وَأَظْلَمَ أَصَابَ ظَلْمًا: (T:) [and ISd cites the verse above with the substitution of بِعَينِهِ for بِطَرْفِهِ and of أَنَارَ for أَضَآءَ immediately after saying that] أَظْلَمَ signifies he looked at the teeth and saw lustre (الظَّلْمَ). (M.) [In the K, next after the explanation of اظلم الثَّغْرُ given above, it is added that اظلم said of a man signifies أَصَابَ ظَلْمًا: thus, with fet-h, to the ظ, accord. to the TA: in my MS. copy of the K and in the CK, ظُلْمًا, which is doubtless a mistranscription.]5 تظلّم مِنْهُ CCC (T, S, M, K, [but in some copies of the S, منه is omitted,]) He complained of his ظُلْم [or wrongdoing, &c.], (S, M, K,) إِلَى الحَاكِمِ [to the judge]: (T:) in some copies of the S, تُظُلِّمَ. (TA.) b2: And تظلّم signifies also He transferred the responsibility for the ظُلْم [or wrongdoing, &c.,] upon himself, (M, K,) accord. to IAar, who has cited as an ex., كَانَتْ إِذَا غَضِبَتْ عَلَىَّ تَظَلَّمَتْ [as though meaning She used, when she was angry with me, to transfer the responsibility for the wrongdoing upon herself; which may mean that she finally confessed the wrongdoing to be hers]; but [ISd says] I know not how that is: the تَظَلُّم in this case is only the complaining of الظُّلْم; for when she was angry with him, it was not allowable [to say] that she attributed the ظُلْم to herself. (M.) b3: See also 1, former half, in two places.6 تظالم القَوْمُ (S, M, Msb) The people, or company of men, treated, or used, one another wrongfully, unjustly, injuriously, or tyrannically (ظَلَمَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا). (M, Msb.) b2: And [hence]

تَظَالَمَتِ المِعْزَى (tropical:) The goats smote one another with their horns by reason of their being fat and having abundance of herbage. (IAar, M, TA.) One says, وَجَدْنَا أَرْضًا تَظَالَمَ مِعْزَاهَا (tropical:) We found a land whereof the goats smote one another with their horns by reason of satiety and liveliness. (T, TA.) 7 إِنْظَلَمَ see the next paragraph.8 اِظَّلَمَ (T, S, M, K) and اِظْطَلَمَ and اِطَّلَمَ, (S, M,) which last is [said to be] the most usual, (S,) [but I have mostly found the first to be used,] of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ, (S, M,) He took upon himself [the bearing of] ظُلْم [or wrong, &c.,] in spite of difficulty, trouble, or inconvenience: (S, TA:) or he bore الظُّلْم [or wrong, &c.,] (T, M, K, TA,) willingly, being able to resist; (T, TA;) and ↓ اِنْظَلَمَ signifies [thus likewise, or] he bore الظُّلْم. (S, M, K.) ظَلْمٌ The lustre, and brightness, of gold. (Z, TA.) b2: And hence, (Z, TA,) The lustre (lit. running water) upon the teeth; (Lth, T, Z, TA;) the lustre (مَآء, S, M, K, and بَرِيق, S, K) of the teeth, (Lth, T, S, M, Z, K, TA,) from the clearness of the colour, not from the saliva, (Lth, * T, * M,) like blackness within the bone thereof, by reason of the intense whiteness, (S, K,) resembling the فِرِنْد [q. v.] of the sword, (S, K,) or appearing like the فِرِنْد [of the sword], so that one imagines that there is in it a blackness, by reason of the intense lustre and clearness: (M:) or, accord. to Sh, whiteness of the teeth, as though there were upon it [somewhat of] a blackness: or, as Abu-l-'Abbás ElAhwal says, in the Expos. of the “ Kaabeeyeh,”

lustre (lit. running water) of the teeth, such that one sees upon it, by reason of its intense clearness [app. meaning transparency], what resembles dustcolour and blackness: or, accord. to another explanation, fineness, or thinness, and intense whiteness, of the teeth: (TA:) pl. ظُلُومٌ. (S, M.) b3: Also Snow: (M, K:) it is said to have this meaning: and the phrase مُشْرَبَةِ الثَّنَايَا بِمَآءِ الظَّلْمِ, used by a poet, may mean [Having the central teeth suffused with the lustre termed ظَلْم, as is indicated in the T and S, or] with the water of snow. (Lth, T.) ظُلْمٌ [as a simple subst. generally means Wrong, wrongdoing, injustice, injuriousness, or tyranny]: see 1, first sentence, in two places. b2: [ظُلْمُ الارضِ in the CK is a mistranscription for ظَلَمَ الأَرْضَ. b3: And الظُلْمُ in one place in the CK, as syn. with الظَّلْمَآءُ, is a mistake for الظُّلْمَةُ.]

لَقِيتُهُ أَدْنَى ظَلَمٍ, (S, M, K,) or أَدْنَى ذِى ظَلَمٍ, (K, TA, [in the CK اَوَّلَ ذِى ظَلَمٍ,]) means (tropical:) I met him the first of everything: (S, K, TA:) or the first thing: (M:) or when the darkness was becoming confused: (M, K:) or أَدْنَى ظَلَمٍ meansnear; (El-Umawee, S, M, K;) or nearness: (M, K:) and one says, هُوَ مِنْكَ أَدْنَى ذِى ظَلَمٍ

[app. He is near thee], and رَأَيْتُهُ أَدْنَى ذِى ظَلَمٍ

[app. I saw him near]: (M:) and ظَلَمٌ is also syn. with شَخْصٌ [as meaning an object seen from a distance, or a person]; (K;) or, as some say, it has this meaning in the phrase أَدْنَى ظَلَمٍ [so that لَقِيتُهُ أَدْنَى ظَلَمٍ may mean I met him the nearest object seen from a distance, or the nearest person]: (M:) and accord. to Kh, one says, ↓ لَقِيتُهُ أَدْنَى ظُلْمَةٍ, or أَوَّلَ ذِى ظُلْمَةٍ, (as in different copies of the S,) meaning I met him the first thing that obstructed my sight. (S.) b2: ظَلَمٌ signifies also A mountain: and the pl. is ظُلُومٌ. (M, K.) ظُلَمٌ an appellation of Three nights (T, S, K) of the lunar month (T, S) next after the three called دُرَعٌ; (T, S, * K; *) so says A'Obeyd: (T:) thus called because of their darkness: (S:) the sing. is ↓ ظَلْمَآءُ; (T, S;) so that it is anomalous; for by rule it should be ظُلْمٌ; (S;) and the sing. of دُرَعٌ is دَرْعَآءُ: so says A'Obeyd: but accord. to AHeyth and Mbr, the sings. are ↓ ظُلْمَةٌ and دُرْعَةٌ, agreeably with rule; and this is the correct assertion. (T. [See more in art. درع, voce أَدْرَعُ.]) ظِلَمٌ: see ظِلَّامٌ.

ظُلْمَةٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ ظُلُمَةٌ (S, M, K) [accord. to the CK ظُلْمٌ and ظُلُمٌ, both of which are wrong,] and ↓ ظَلْمَآءُ (S, M, Msb, K) Darkness; contr. of نُورٌ: (S, Msb:) or nonexistence of نُور [or light]: or an accidental state that precludes the coëxistence therewith of نُور: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or the departure of light; as also ↓ ظَلَامٌ; (M, K;) which last has no pl.; (T, TA;) or this last signifies the beginning, or first part, of night, (S, M, Msb,) even though it be one in which the moon shines; and is said by Sb to be used only adverbially; one says, أَتَيْتُهُ ظَلَامًا, meaning I came to him at night, and مَعَ الظَّلَامِ i. e. at the time of the night: (M, TA:) the pl. of ظُلْمَةٌ is ظُلَمٌ and ظُلُمَاتٌ and ظُلَمَاتٌ (T, S, Msb) and ظُلْمَاتٌ, (S, Msb,) or, accord. to IB, the first of these pls. is of ظُلْمَةٌ and the second is of ظُلُمَةٌ. (TA.) One says, ↓ هُوَ يَخْبِطُ الظَّلَامَ [or فِى الظَّلَامِ, expl. in art. خبط], and الظُّلْمَةَ [which means the same] and ↓ الظَّلْمَآءَ [which is also expl. in art. خبط]. (TA.) b2: ظُلْمَةٌ is also [tropically] used as a term for (assumed tropical:) Ignorance: and (assumed tropical:) belief in a plurality of gods: and (assumed tropical:) transgression, or unrighteousness: like as نُورٌ is used as a term for their contraries: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and it is said in the A that الظُّلْمُ is ظُلْمَةٌ, like as العَدْلُ is نُورٌ. (TA.) ظُلُمَاتُ البَحْرِ means (assumed tropical:) The troubles, afflictions, calamities, or hardships, of the sea. (M.) A2: And one says لَيْلَةٌ ظُلْمَةٌ, [using the latter word as an epithet, (in the CK, erroneously, ظَلِمَةٌ,)] and ↓ لَيْلَةٌ ظَلْمَآءُ, both meaning A night intensely dark; (M, K;) or the latter means مُظْلِمَةٌ [i. e. dark, or black]: (S:) and ↓ لَيْلٌ ظَلْمَآءُ also, (M, K,) which is anomalous, (K,) mentioned by IAar, but [ISd says] this is strange, and in my opinion he has put لَيْلٌ in the place of لَيْلَةٌ, as in his mentioning لَيْلٌ قَمْرَآءُ [q. v.]. (M.) b2: See also ظُلَمٌ: b3: and see the paragraph next preceding it.

ظِلْمَةٌ sing. of ظِلَمٌ: see ظِلَّامٌ.

ظُلُمَةٌ: see ظُلْمَةٌ.

ظَلْمَآءُ: see ظُلْمَةٌ, in four places: and see also ظُلَمٌ.

ظَلَامٌ: see ظُلْمَةٌ, in two places.

ظُلَامٌ: see 1, in the first quarter of the paragraph.

ظِلَامٌ: see 1, near the beginning: A2: see also ظِلَّامٌ.

A3: It signifies also Little, or small, in quantity: or mean, contemptible, paltry, or of no weight or worth: b2: whence the saying, نَظَرَ إِلَىَّ ظِلَامًا, meaning شَزْرًا [i. e. He looked at me from the outer angle of the eye, with anger, or aversion]. (K.) ظَلُومٌ: see ظَلَّامٌ. b2: [Hence,] one says اِمْرَأَةٌ ظَلُومٌ لِلسِّقَآءِ (assumed tropical:) [A woman wont to give to drink the milk of the skin before its attaining to maturity and the extracting of its butter: see ظَلَمَ الوَطْبَ, and what follows it, in the first paragraph]. (M.) ظَلِيمٌ [as syn. with مَظْلُومٌ in the primary sense of the latter I have not found: but as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates it signifies] (tropical:) Milk that is drunk before its becoming thick and its butter's coming forth or being extracted; (S, * M;) as also ↓ ظَلِيمَةٌ, (T, S, M,) and ↓ مَظْلُومٌ. (T, S.) b2: And (assumed tropical:) A place that is ↓ مَظْلُوم [i. e. dug where it should not be dug]: (M, TA:) used in this sense by a poet describing a person slain in a desert, for whom a grave was dug in a place not proper for digging [it]. (M.) b3: And (tropical:) The earth of land that is ↓ مَظْلُومَة (S, K, TA) i. e. dug, (TA,) or dug for the first time. (S.) And (assumed tropical:) The earth of the لَحْد [or lateral hollow] of a grave; which is put back, over it, after the burial of the dead therein. (T, TA.) A2: Also The male ostrich: (T, S, M, K:) said (by IDrd, TA) to be so called because he makes a place for the laying and hatching of the eggs (يُدَحِّى, inf. n. تَدْحِيَةٌ,) where the doing so is not proper: (M, TA:) or, accord. to Er-Rághib and others, because he is believed to be deaf: (TA:) pl. ظِلْمَانٌ (T, M, K) and ظُلْمَانٌ (M, K) and أَظْلِمَةٌ, (T, M,) which last is a pl. of pauc. (T.) b2: And الظَّلِيمَانِ is an appellation of Two stars; (M, K, * TA;) the two stars of القَوْس [or Sagittarius] that are on the northern curved end of the bow [i. e.

λ and μ, above the nine stars called النَّعَائِم, or “ the ostriches ”]. (Kzw in his descr. of Sagittarius.) And الظَّلِيمُ is the name of The bright star α] at the end of النَّهْر [i. e. Eridanus]: and A star upon the mouth of الحُوت [i. e. Piscis Australis] (Kzw in his descr. of Eridanus.) [It seems to be implied in the K that الظَّلِيمُ is the name of two stars; or it may be there meant that each of two stars is thus called.

(TA.) [Hence, لَفْظًا وَمَعْنًى (tropical:) With respect to the word, or words, or wording, and the meaning: and with respect to the actual order of the words; and the order of the sense. And لَفْظًا وَرُتْبَةً (tropical:) With respect to the actual order of the words, and the order of the proper relative places. And لَفْظًا وَتَقْدِيرًا (tropical:) Literally and virtually. And لَا وَاحِدَ لَهُ مِنْ لَفْظِهِ (tropical:) It has no singular formed of the same radical letter: i. e., it has no proper singular: said of a word such as قَوْمٌ and رَهْطٌ &c.] b2: See also لُفَاظٌ.

(TA.) لَافِظٌ [act. part. n. of 1: fem. with ة]. Yousay, فُلاَنٌ لَافِظٌ (tropical:) Such a one is dying. (TA.) b2: اللَّافِظَةٌ The she-goat, (T, S, M, K,) or ewe; (M, K;) because she is called to be milked, while ruminating, and thereupon ejects her cud, and comes joyfully to be milked: (T, * S, M, * K: *) or the bird that feeds her young one from her beak; because she puts forth what is in her inside and gives it for food: (S, K *:) or the domestic cock; (S, K;) because he takes the grain with his beak, and does not eat it, but throws it to the hen: (K:) or (tropical:) the mill; (T, S, M, K;) because it casts forth what it grinds, (T, TA,) of the flour: (TA:) or (tropical:) the sea; (S, M, K;) as also لَافِظَةُ, determinate [as a proper name]; (K;) because it casts forth (S, M) what is in it, (M,) [namely] ambergris and jewels: (S:) in this last sense, and as applied to the cock, (Sgh,) the ة is to give intensiveness to the signification. (S, Sgh.) It has one or another of these significations in the saying, اسْمَحُ مِنْ لَافِظَةٍ [More liberal, or bountiful, than a she-goat, &c.,] (T, S, K,) and أَسْخَى مِنْ لَافِظَةٍ (M, TA) and أَجْوَدُ مِنْ لَافِظَةٍ [which mean the same].

(T, M, K.) and اللَّافِظَةُ (tropical:) The earth; because it casts forth the dead. (TA.) And (tropical:) The present world; because it casts forth those who are in it to the world to come.

which may mean, [And may] the descending of the rain called the ربيع [and continuous rain, or continuous and still rain, pouring forth, water thy districts, not injuring them]: or it may mean, [may] the rain of the season called the ربيع [&c.]: so says IHsh. (MF, TA.) And one says of a calamity (شِدَّة), on the occasion of its befalling, صَابَتْ بِقُرٍّ, meaning It became [or fell] in its قَرَار [or settled or fixed place, or in the place where it should remain].

And صوّب الإِنَآءَ He inclined the vessel (Mgh, Msb) downwards, in order that what was in it might run [out]: (Mgh:) or he lowered, or depressed, the vessel; and in like manner, رَأْسَ الخَشَبَةِ [the head of the piece of wood].

(A, TA.) A3: [تَصْوِيبٌ is also the contr. of تَصْعِيدٌ in an intrans. sense as well as in the trans. sense mentioned above:] one says, طَالَ فِى

الأَرْضِ تَصْوِيبِى وَتَصْعِيدِى [Long have continued my descending, or going down, and my ascending, or going up, in the land].

(TA.) And اصاب alone is said of an archer or the like [as meaning He hit the object of his aim]: (Msb:) one says, رَمَى فَأَصَابَ [He shot, or cast, and hit the object of his aim]. (A.) b3: [Hence, likening an event, &c., to an arrow,] one says also, اصابهُ أَمْرٌ, inf. n. as above, (assumed tropical:) [An event smote him, or befell him;] and ↓ صابهُ, aor. ـُ inf. n. صَوْبٌ, signifies the same.

In the following verse, cited by IAar, فَكَيْفَ تُرَجِّى العاذِلَاتُ تَجَلُّدِى حَمِيمُهَا ↓ وَصَبْرِى إِذَا مَا النَّفْسُ صِيبَ he explains صِيبَ as being like قُصِدَ, and says that it may be of the dial. of him who says صَابَ السَّهْمُ; but [ISd remarks,] I know not how this is, for صَابَ السَّهْمُ is not trans.; [though, as shown above, he has mentioned it as being trans.;] and in my opinion, [he says,] صيب here is from the phrase صَابَتِ السَّمَآءُ الأَرْضَ [expl. above; the meaning of the verse being, But how should the censuring women hope for my constraining myself to behave with hardiness, and for my being patient, when the beloved of the soul has been smitten by death, or by the decree of death; for ISd adds,] كَأَنَّ المَنِيَّةَ صَابَتِ الحَمِيمَ فَأَصَابَتْهُ بِصَوْبِهَا. (M, TA. *) b4: [اصاب is also used in many phrases in which its agent is likened to an archer.] One says, اصاب الصَّوَابَ (tropical:) [He hit the right thing or point, or the object, or aim, of his words or of his actions]: (A:) and اصاب السَّدَادَ [which means the same].

(M, K. *) and اصاب فِى قَوْلِهِ وَفِعْلِهِ (assumed tropical:) He hit the right thing in his saying and his deed; (Msb;) and so فِى رَأْيِهِ in his opinion; contr. of أَخْطَأَ. (A.) and اصاب بِغْيَتَهُ (assumed tropical:) He attained, or obtained, the thing that he sought, or wanted: whence the saying, اصاب مِنْ زَوْجَتِهِ [and so app. أَصَابَهَا (see سَفَقَ)] (assumed tropical:) He obtained his desired enjoyment of his wife: (Msb:) اصاب مِنِّى occurs in a trad., [as a euphemism,] said by the wife of Handhaleh, meaning (assumed tropical:) He compressed me: (Mgh:) and it is said in a trad., كَانَ يُصِيبُ مِنْ رَأْسِ بَعْضِ نِسَائِهِ وَهُوَ صَائِمٌ, meaning (assumed tropical:) He used to kiss [the head of some one or more of his wives when he was fasting].

(As, TA.) And أَيْنَ تُصِيبَانِ (assumed tropical:) [Whither do ye two desire to go?]; a saying of Ru-beh. (TA.) تَجْرِى بِأَمْرِهِ رُخَآءً حَيْثُ أَصَابَ, in the Kur [xxxviii. 35, referring to the wind], has been expl. as meaning (assumed tropical:) [Running by his command softly, or gently,] whithersoever He desireth. (M, * TA.) And اصاب اللّٰهُ الَّذِى أَرَادَ, said in a trad., in reply to a question respecting the interpretation of a text, means (assumed tropical:) God desireth, or meaneth, [thereby,] what He desireth, or meaneth. (TA.) and اصاب اللّٰهُ بِكَ خَيْرًا means أَرَادَهُ (tropical:) [i. e. May God intend thee good]. (A.) And اصاب alone (assumed tropical:) He desired, or intended, or meant, that which was right. (M, K. *) One says also, اصابهُ بِخَيْرٍ (assumed tropical:) [meaning He did good to him]. (El-Muärrij, TA in art. اسو.) [But] اصابهُ بِكَذَا, (M,) inf. n. إِصَابَةٌ, (K,) with which are syn. ↓ مُصَابٌ [in accordance with a usage generally allowable] (S, TA) and ↓ مُصَابَةٌ, (K, TA,) (assumed tropical:) [generally] means He afflicted him with, or by, such a thing; or gave pain to him thereby. (M, K: * in the latter, only the inf. n. of the verb in this sense; and so in other senses.) [Thus one says, اصابهُ بِشَرٍّ (assumed tropical:) He afflicted him with evil; or did evil to him: and اصابهُ بِمَكْرُوهٍ (assumed tropical:) He afflicted him with, or did to him, an abominable, or an evil, thing or action: and اصابهُ بِقَوْلٍ قَبِيحٍ (assumed tropical:) He afflicted him with, or said to him, a foul saying: and اصابهُ بِذَحْلٍ (assumed tropical:) He punished him by blood-revenge: and اصابهُ بِمَرَضٍ (assumed tropical:) He, (i. e. God,) or it, (a thing,) affected him with disease; or rendered him diseased: and in many similar cases, the phrase may be well rendered with a verb derived from the noun; like phrases in which “ affecit ” (a Latin equivalent of اصاب) occurs; as in “ honore affecit,” meaning “ honoravit. ”] El-Hárith Ibn-Khuld El-Makhzoomee says, رَجُلًا↓أَظُلَيْمُ إِنَّ مُصَابَكُمْ

أَهْدَى السَّلَامَ تَحِيَّةً ظُلْمُ (assumed tropical:) [O Dhuleymeh, verily your afflicting a man who has given the salutation of peace, greeting, is tyranny]: IB says that this verse is not of El-'Arjee, as El-Hareeree imagined it to be: the correct reading is أَظُلَيْمُ, as above: ظليم is an apocopated from of ظُلَيْمَةُ; which is the dim. of ظَلُوم: some read أَظَلُومُ: and some, أَسُلَيْمُ: [the verse is cited accord. to this last reading in the S:] رَجُلًا is governed in the accus. case by مُصَاب [as an inf. n.]: and ظُلْمُ is the enunciative of إِنَّ. (L, TA.) أَصَابَهُمُ الدَّهْرُ بِنُفُوسِهِمْ وَأَمْوَالِهِمْ (assumed tropical:) meansTime, or fate, afflicted them by destruction, or extirpation, among themselves and their cattle, or possessions. (M.) [In the K, الإِصَابةُ is expl. as signifying الاِحْتِيَاجُ: but the right reading is evidently الاِجْتِيَاحُ, as Ibr D has remarked in the margin of my copy of the TA; so that اصاب signifies (assumed tropical:) He destroyed, or extirpated; agreeably with an explanation in the sentence next preceding above, from the M.] مَنْ يُرِدِ اللّٰهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُصِبْ مِنْهُ, (assumed tropical:) occurring in a trad., means Him whom God intendeth good He trieth with afflictions, that He may recompense him for them. (TA.) And one says, مَا كُنْتُ مُصَابًا وَلَقَدْ أُصِبْتُ (assumed tropical:) [app. meaning I was not affected with weakness of intellect, or madness, and I have become affected therewith: see مُصَابٌ, below]. (IAar, TA.) 5 تصوّب [quasi-pass. of 2]: see 1, in three places. b2: Also It was, or became, lowered, or depressed; syn. تَسَفَّلَ. (A.) 6 تصاوب, accord. to Freytag, signifies He, or it, was well directed: but for this he names no authority.]7 إِنْصَوَبَ see 1, first sentence.10 اِسْتَصْوَبَهُ and اِسْتَصَابَهُ signify the same, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) (tropical:) He saw it, considered it, or held it, to be right; (M, Msb, TA;) namely, his deed, (S, Msb,) or his opinion, (M, TA,) or his saying: (A:) Th says, اِسْتَصَبْتُهُ is the regular form; but the Arabs say, اِسْتَصْوَبْتُ رَأْيَكَ. (M, TA. [See also 4, latter half.]) صَابٌ A certain species of tree, from which, when it is pressed, there issues what resembles milk, a drop of which sometimes spirts into the eye, producing an effect like that of a flame of fire, and in some instances weakening the sight: (M, TA:) or a certain kind of bitter tree; (As, T, M, K, TA;) one of which is termed ↓ صَابَةٌ: (M, K: * [in the latter it is said that صَابٌ is the pl. of صَابَةٌ; but properly speaking, the former is a coll. gen. n., and the latter is its n. un.:]) or the expressed juice of a kind of bitter tree: (S:) but accord. to the K, this is a mistake, though it is the saying of leading lexicologists: (TA:) or, as some say, the expressed juice of the صَبِر [or aloes]. (M.) صَوْبٌ an inf. n. used as a subst. (Msb) meaning Rain; (Lth, Msb;) and so ↓ صَيِّبٌ, which is originally [صَيْوِبٌ, i. e.] of the measure فَيْعِلٌ from الصَّوْبُ: (Bd in ii. 18:) or صَيِّبٌ is an epithet applied to clouds (غَيْمٌ, Sh, O, or سَحَابٌ, S, Msb) meaning having rain, (O,) i. q. ذُو صَوْبٍ: (S, Msb:) or صَوْبٌ and ↓ صَيِّبٌ and ↓ صَيُّوبٌ [the last of which is written in the CK صَيُوبٌ] all signify the same, (M, K,) as epithets applied to rain, meaning pouring forth: (M:) or ↓ صَيُّوبٌ, which is originally of the measure فَيْعُولٌ, [being altered from صَيْوُوبٌ,] means rain pouring forth much, or abundantly: (IDrd, O:) [↓ صَائِبٌ, also, is applied as an epithet to rain, like صَوْبٌ and صَيِّبٌ; and] in the phrase صِيبَانُ المَطَرِ, accord. to Abu-l-'Alà, صِيبَان is pl. of صَائِب; or it may be an inf. n., like حِرْمَان: and if one say ↓ صَيْبَان, with fet-h, the meaning is, what has poured forth of rain, notwithstanding the ى in it, for similar to this are رَيْحَان from الرَّوْح and عَيْدَان (meaning “ tall ” palm-trees) from العُوْد. (Ham p. 796.) A2: Also Course, or tendency; syn. قَصْدٌ: so in the saying, to one who is traversing a desert in uncertainty and has declined from the right way, أَقِمْ صَوْبَكَ [Rectify thy course]: and in the phrase فُلَانٌ مُسْتَقِيمُ الصَّوْبِ [Such a one is pursuing the right course], said of a person when he is not declining from his way to the right or left. (TA. [See also another ex. voce أَوْبٌ.]) b2: And A place, or point, of tendency or direction or bearing, syn. جِهَةٌ, (Msb, TA,) of a thing; (Msb;) and نَاحِيَةٌ [which means the same; and also a side; or a lateral, or an adjacent, part or tract of a thing; and in this sense صَوْبٌ is used in the present day]; and جَانِبٌ [which generally has the latter of these meanings]. (TA.) b3: See also صَوَابٌ, in three places.

صَابَةٌ: see مُصِيبَةٌ. b2: Also Weakness, or feebleness, in the intellect; (M, A, K;) or a touch of insanity therein; (A;) or somewhat of insanity, or of madneess produced by diabolical possession. (S.) A2: See also صَابٌ.

(ISk, S.) One says, دَخَلْتُ عَلَى فُلَانٍ فَإِذَا الدَّنَانِيرُ صُوبَةٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ i. e. [I went in to such a one, and lo, the deenárs were] a heap poured out without measure before him: (S, M, * A: *) or, as some relate the saying, الدِّينَارُ, which is thus used as a gen. n. (M.) صَيْبَانٌ: see صَوْبٌ.

(Ham p. 66.) b3: [And accord. to Reiske, as stated by Freytag, صَبَحَ signifies He drank in the early morning: but I think that Reiske may have assigned to it this meaning from his having found the pass. form of the verb, not distinguished as such, used in a case in which it might be supposed to signify thus.]. b4: See also 2, in five places.

A2: صَبَحٌ as an inf. n. [of which the verb is صَبِحَ accord. to a general rule] signifies The being satiated, or having the thirst quenched, by a morning-draught, or what is termed a صَبُوح. (L.)

(L.) b2: And صَبَّحَكَ اللّٰهُ بِخَيْرٍ (S, * A, Msb) or بِالخَيْرِ (TA) (assumed tropical:) [May God visit thee in the morning with good, or good fortune, or happiness; or make thee to be in, or during, the morning attended with good, &c.; i. e. make thy morning good, or happy; or grant thee a good, or happy, morning]: a prayer for the person thus addressed, (Msb.) b3: And صَبَّحْتُهُ I said to him عِمْ صَبَاحًا [expl. below, see صَبَاحٌ]; (S;) and صَبَّحَهُمْ he said to them عِمُوا صَبَاحًا: (K:) or صَبَّحْتُهُ means I said to him صَبَّحَكَ اللّٰهُ بِخَيْرٍ [expl. above]. (Msb.) b4: See also 1, first sentence. b5: [Hence,] صَبَّحْتُ القَوْمَ المَآءَ, inf. n. as above, I journeyed with the people, or party, by night until I brought them in the morning to the water.

(L, K.) By the following words of EshShemmákh, وَقِيلُ المُنَادِى أَصْبَحَ القَوْمُ أَدْلِجِى is meant, [And the saying of the crier is,] The people, or party, have nearly entered upon the time of dawn: prosecute the night-journey: for the Arabs, when they have nearly arrived at a place which they desire to reach, say, قَدْ بَلَغْنَاهُ; and when travellers are near the time of daybreak, they say, أَصْبَحْنَا. (T, L.) b2: [Hence,] (tropical:) He awoke from sleep in the جَوْف [i. e. last third, or last sixth,] of the night. (A, TA.) [And simply (tropical:) He awoke: for] one says to the sleeper, أَصْبِحْ, meaning (tropical:) Awake thou from sleep. (A, TA.) And one says also, أَصْبِحْ يَا رَجُلُ, meaning (tropical:) Become roused, O man, (A, K, * TA,) from thy heedlessness or inadvertence, (A, TA,) and see thy right course, (K, TA,) and what will rectify thy state. (TA.) And أَصْبِحْ لَيْلُ (tropical:) [Become morning, O night] a prov.: (Meyd, A, TA:) said in a distressing night, that is long by reason of evil. (Meyd. [See Freytag's Arab. Prov., i. 727.]) b3: [Also He, or it, became in the morning in any particular state or condition: in this sense, and in that next following, an incomplete, i. e. a non-attributive, verb.] b4: and [hence, simply,] He, or it, became; syn. صَارَ. (S, K.) One says, اصبح عَالِمًا He became knowing, or learned. (S, TA.) Thus, فَأَصْبَحُوا ظَاهِرِينَ, in the Kur lxi. last verse, means And they became victorious. (Bd.) And فَأَصْبَحَ يُقَلِّبُ كَفَّيْهِ, in the Kur xviii. 40, [And he became in a state, or condition, in which he turned over his hands; i. e.] and he became repentant, or grieved for what he had done. (A in art. قلب, and Bd.) And فَأَصْبَحُوا لَا تَرَى إِلَّا مَسَاكِنَهُمْ, in the Kur xlvi. 24, i. e. [And they became] in a condition such that, if thou wert present in their country, thou wouldst not see aught save their dwellingplaces; or, as Hamzeh and Ks read, لَا يُرَى إِلَّا مَسَاكِنُهُمْ [there was not to be seen aught save their dwelling-places]. (Bd.) [أَصْبَحَ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا is of frequent occurrence, meaning He became occupied, or engaged, in doing such a thing; he betook, set, or applied, himself to doing such a thing; set about, or commenced, doing such a thing; or began to do such a thing.] b5: [Also He performed the prayer of daybreak.] It is said in a trad., أَصْبِحُوا بِالصُّبْحِ, meaning Perform ye the prayer of daybreak in the time of daybreak. (L.) b6: See also 8. b7: Also He acted gently. (TA in art. ارش: see an ex. in a verse cited voce مَأْروُشٌ.) A2: إِصْبَاحٌ He trimmed a lamp, or wick; or prepared it properly for use.

A2: See also 8, in two places.6 فُلَانٌ يَتَصَابَحُ and يَتَحَاسَنُ [Such a one affects to be beautful, comely, pretty, or elegant: the latter verb is here added as an explicative of the former: see صَبُحَ]. (A, TA.) 8 اصطبح He drank a morning-draught, or what is termed a صَبُوح; (S, K, TA;) [and] so ↓ اصبح. (Msb. [Thus in my copy of the Msb, but probably a mistranscription, for the former is the verb well known in this sense, and is not in that copy.]) It is said in a trad., مَالَنَا صَبِىٌّ يَصْطَبِحُ [We have not a child that drinks a morningdraught]; meaning we have not as much milk as a child may drink in the early morning, in consequence of the drought. (TA.) A2: And i. q. أَسْرَجَ [as meaning He lighted a lamp or wick, or himself or another with a lamp &c.]; (K, TA;) and so ↓ اصبح (A, TA) [in the former sense], as in the phrase اصبح مِصْبَاحًا [he lighted a lamp or wick]; (A;) and اصبح alone has this meaning, i. e. أَسْرَجَ سِرَاجًا. (TA, from a trad.) [But it is used often in the latter sense:] one says, الشَّمْعُ مِمَّا يُصْطَبَحُ بِهِ Candles are of the things with which one lights [himself, or others]; syn. يُسْرَجُ: (S:) [and in like manner ↓ تصبّح; for] one says, هُوَ يَتَصَبَّحُ بِالشُّمُوعِ [He lights himself, or others, with candles]: (A:) [and in like manner also ↓ استصبح; for] one says, استصبح بِالمِصْبَاحِ (S, MA, Mgh, Msb, K *) He lighted [himself, or another,] with the lamp, or wick; (MA;) syn. أَسْرَجَ; (S;) or اِسْتَسْرَجَ: (K:) [hence it appears that اصطبح بِهِ and به ↓ استصبح and به ↓ تصبّح may be aptly rendered he employed it as a means of light; and thus the second of these three verbs, is expl. in treatises on practical law:] one says also, بِالدُّهْنِ ↓ استصبح [He employed oil as a means of light; or] he made the lamp, or wick, to give light by means of oil: (Mgh, Msb:) and it is said in a trad. respecting the several sorts of fat (شُحُوم) of carrion, بِهَا النَّاسُ ↓ يَسْتَصْبِحُ The people [employ them as means of light; or] make their lamps, or wicks, to give light by means of them.

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

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

(TA. [See also أَصَبَحُ.]) صَبْحَانُ A man who has drunk a morningdraught, or what is termed a صَبُوح; (TA;) or who has done so, and satisfied his thirst thereby: (Aboo-'Adnán, TA:) [in the S and K it is implied that it is syn. with مُصْطَبِحٌ, q. v.:] fem.

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

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

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

(Sharh esh-Shudhoor, ubi suprà.) b3: يَوْمُ الصَّبَاحِ means (tropical:) The day of the hostile, or predatory, incursion. (S, A, K.)

ذكر

1 ذَكَرَهُ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. ذِكْرَى, (S, A, Msb,) which is fem., (Msb,) and imperfectly decl., (S,) and ذِكْرٌ (A, K) [and ذُكْرٌ, or, accord. to EtTebreezee, (Ham p. 26,) the latter of these two but not the former, or, as is said in the Msb., both are properly substs., and a distinction is made between them, as will be shown below,] and تَذْكَارٌ, (K,) He preserved it in his memory: (K, * TA:) he remembered it; (S, A;) as also ذَكَرَهُ بِقَلْبِهِ [to distinguish it from ذَكَرَ in a sense afterwards to be explained], (S, Msb,) and ↓ تذكّرهُ; (S, A;) and ↓ اِدَّكَرَهُ (S, K, TA,) originally اِذْتَكَرَهُ (S,) and اِذَّكَرَهُ (TA, and so in the CK,) and اِذْدَكَرَهُ (K,) and ↓ استذكرهُ, (Az, K,) signify the same as تذكّرهُ (K) [as explained above]: ↓ تذكّرهُ signifies also he became reminded of it; (Msb;) [and so ↓ ادّكرهُ and its variations: and ↓ استذكرهُ seems properly to signify, as also ↓ تذكرّهُ, he recollected it; or called it to mind: and he sought to remember it: and ↓ استذكر and ↓ تذكّر used intransitively, he sought, or endeavoured, to remember.] Yousay, ذَكَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ بَعْدَ النِّسْيَانِ [I remembered the thing after forgetting]: (S:) and ذَكَرْتُ المَنْسِىَّ and ↓ تَذَكَّرْتُهُ [I remembered the thing forgotten, and I became reminded of it, or I recollected it]: (A:) and بَعْدَ أَمَهٍ ↓ ادّكر, occurring in the Kur [xii. 45, accord. to one reading of the last word], means He remembered [or became reminded] after forgetting. (S) And رَبَطَ فِى

بِهِ حَاجَتِهِ ↓ إِصْبَعِهِ خَيْطًا يَسْتَذْكِرُ [He tied upon his finger a thread or string, seeking to remember, or recollect, or call to mind, thereby the thing that he wanted: such a thread or string is commonly called رَتِيمَةٌ:]: (Az:) and ↓ استذكر is used alone with the like signification [i. e. He sought to remember]: and also signifies He studied a book and preserved it in his memory, accord. to the K; but accord. to other lexicons, he studied a thing in order to remember it, or preserve it in his memory: (TA:) you say, بِدِرَاسَتِهِ ↓ استذكر He sought to remember by his studying of a book. (A.) b2: ذَكَرَ حَقَّهُ, (K,) inf. n. ذِكْرٌ (TA,) He was mindful of his right, or claim; and did not neglect it. (K.) Agreeably with this explanation, the words in the Kur [ii. 231, &c.,] وَاذْكُرُوا نِعْمَةَ اللّٰهِ عَلَيْكُمْ have been rendered And be ye mindful of, and neglect not to be thankful for, the favour of God conferred upon you: like as an Arab says to his companion, اُذْكُرْ حَقِّىعَلَيْكَ Be thou mindful of my claim upon thee; and neglect it not. (TA.) b3: [In like manner also are explained the words] وَاذْكُرُوا مَا فِيهِ in the Kur [ii. 60], And study ye what is in it, and forget it not: or think ye upon what is in it: or do ye what is in it. (Bd.) b4: One says, مَا اسْمُكَ أَذْكُرْ, (Fs and Lb, and so in a copy of the K,) or أَذْكُرْهُ, (so in another copy of the K, and in the TA,) the hemzeh of أَذْكُرْ being disjunctive, (Lb, K,) [in the CK we find مَا اسمُكَ اَذْكِرْهُ بقطعِ الهَمْزَةِ مِنْ اَذْكَر, as though the reading were أَذْكَرْهُ with a disjunctive hemzeh from أَذْكَرَ, which is manifestly wrong,] and with fet-h, because it is the hemzeh of the first person of a triliteral [unaugmented] verb, and with the ر mejzoom, because it is the complement of an interrogative phrase: (Lb:) it is expressive of disapprobation, (Lb, K,) and means, Acquaint me with thy name: [or, lit., what is thy name?] I will remember it, or I will bear it in mind (اذكره): the conditional phrase [if thou tell it to me] is suppressed because unnecessary, on account of frequent usage of the saying, and because what remains is indicative of it: (Lb, MF:) the saying is a prov.; and is also related with the conjunctive hemzeh, [اذْكُرْ, or اذْكُرْ; in which case it is most appropriately rendered, What is thy name? Say: or Tell it] but the reading with the disjunctive hemzeh is that which is commonly known: (TA:) [for]

A2: ذَكَرَهُ, aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. ذِكْرَى, fem., [and imperfectly decl,] (Msb,) and ذِكْرٌ and ذُكْرٌ, (TA,) [or the former of these two (which is the most common of all) but not the latter, or, as is said in the Msb, both are properly substs., and a distinction is made between them, as will be shown below,] also signifies He mentioned it; told it; related it; said it; (TA;) and so ذَكَرَهُ بِلِسَانِهِ [to distinguish it from ذَكَرَ in the first sense explained above]. (S, Msb.) You say ذَكَرْتُ لِفُلَانٍ حَدِيثَ كَذَاوَكَذَا I mentioned, or told, or related, to such a one the story of such and such things. (TA.) And ذَكَرَ امْرَأُ بِمَا لَيْسَ فِيهِ [He mentioned, or spoke of, a man as having that attribute which was not in him]. (El-Jámi' es-Sagheer voce مَنْ) b2: And ذَكَرَهُ (assumed tropical:) He magnified Him, namely, God; celebrated, lauded, or praised, Him; asserted his unity; (Zj;) [saying سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ, and الحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ, and اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ; or لَاإِلَاهَ إِلَّااللّٰهُ; or هُوَاللّٰهُ; or the like.] b3: [And, in like manner, (assumed tropical:) He spoke well of him, namely, a man; mentioned him with approbation; eulogized, praised, or commended, him: for ذَكَرَهُ بِالجَمِيلِ, or بِخَيْرٍ

See ذِكْرٌ below.] b4: Also, contr., [for ذَكَرَهُ بِالقَبِيحِ or بِشَرٍّ] (assumed tropical:) He spoke evil of him; men-tioned him with evil words; (Fr;) mentioned his vices, or faults; spoke evil of him behind his back, or in his absence, saying of him what would grieve him if he heard it, but saying what was true; or merely said of him what would grieve him: an elliptical expression in this and in the contrary sense; what is meant being known. (Zj.) One says to a man, لَئِنْ ذَكَرْتَنِى لَتَنْدَمَنَّ, meaning [Verily, if thou mention me] with evil words [thou will assuredly repent]: and in like manner the verb is used in the Kur xxi. 37 and 61: and 'Antarah says, لَاتَذْكُرِى فَرَسِى وَمَا أَطْعَمْتُهُ فَيَكُونَ جِلْدُكَ مِثْلَ جِلْدِ الأَجْرَبِ meaning Mention thou not reproachfully [my horse, and what I have given him for food, for, if thou do, thy skin will be like the skin of the scabby]: (Fr, T:) but AHeyth disallows this signification of the verb, and explains the saying of 'Antarah as meaning, Be not thou fond of mentioning my horse, and my preferring him before the family. (T, TA.) b5: ذَكَرَ فُلَانَةَ, inf. n ذِكْرٌ, [expressly said to be] with kesr, [so in the CK, and I think it the right reading,] or ذَكْرٌ, [so in a MS. copy of the K, and in the TA,] with fet-h, [so in the TA,] He demanded such a one in marriage: or he addressed himself to demand her in marriage: (K:) [as though the mentioning a woman implied a desire to demand her in marriage:] it occurs in one of these two senses in a trad. (TA.) A3: ذَكَرَهُ, inf. n. ذَكْرٌ, with fet-h, He struck him upon his penis. (K.) 2 ذكّرهُ إِيَّاهُ, (S, A, * Msb, K,) and ذكّرهُ بِهِ, (Kur xiv. 5, &c.,) inf. n. تَذْكِرَةٌ (A, TA) and تَذْكِيرٌ, (K, TA,) and quasi-inf. n. ↓ ذِكْرَى imperfectly decl.; (A, * K, * TA;) and ايّاهُ ↓ اذكرهُ; (S, Msb, K;) He reminded him of, or caused him to remember, him, or it. (S, Msb, K.) b2: And ذكّر, (TA,) inf. n. تَذْكِيرٌ (K) [and تَذْكِرَةٌ also, as in the Kur xx. 2], He exhorted; admonished; exhorted to obedience; gave good advice, and reminded of the results of affairs; reminded of what might soften the heart, by the mention of rewards and punishments. (K, TA.) Thus the verb is used in the Kur lxxxviii. 21. (TA.) A2: Also ذكّرهُ, inf. n. تَذْكِيرُ, He made it (a word) masculine; contr. of أَنَّثَهُ. (S, * Msb, K. *) b2: In the Kur [ii. 282], فَتُذَكِّرَ إِحْدَاهُمَا الأُخْرَى is said by some to signify (assumed tropical:) That one of them may make the other to be in the legal predicament of a male: [meaning that both of them together shall be as one man:] or, accord. to others, one of them may remind the other. (TA.) b3: It is said in a trad., فَذَكِّرُوهُ ↓ القُرْآنُ ذَكَرٌ (tropical:) The Kur-án is eminently excellent [lit., masculine]: therefore do ye hold it and know it and describe it as such. (K, TA. [In the CK, for ذَكَرٌ is put ذِكْرٌ.]) b4: [Hence,] ذكّرهُ, (TA,) inf. n. تَذْكِيرٌ, (K,) He put to it, namely a sword, (TA,) and the head of an axe &c., (K,) an edge of steel. (K, * TA.) [See ذُكْرَةٌ.]3 ذاكرهُ, (MA,) inf. n. مُذَاكَرَةٌ, (KL;) He called to mind with him (MA, KL) a story, or discourse, or the like, (MA,) or a thing. (KL.) b2: [And hence, He conferred with him.]4 أَذْكَرَ see 2.

A2: اذكر also signifies He (a man [or other]) begat a male. (TA from a trad.) and اذكرت She (a woman, S, A, or other female, TA) brought forth a male, (S, A, K,) or males. (Mgh.) It is said in a prayer for a woman in labour, أَيْسَرَتْ وَأَذْكَرَتْ May she have an easy birth, and may she bring forth a male child. (A.) And you say also, اذكرت بِهِ (assumed tropical:) She brought him forth a male, and hardy: (TA from a trad.:) or a male, and sharp and cunning. (Mgh.) 5 تَذَكَّرَ see 1, in five places, in the first and second sentences. b2: [Also It (a word) was, or became, or was made, of the masculine gender; contr. of تأنّث.]6 تذاكروا They called to mind [a story, or discourse, or the like, or a thing,] one with another. (KL. [See 3.]) b2: [And hence, They conferred together.]8 اِدَّكَرَ and اِذَّكَرَ and اِذْدَكَرَ: see 1, in three places, in the first and second sentences.10 إِسْتَذْكَرَ see 1, in six places, in the first and third sentences.

ذُكْرٌ: see ذِكْرٌ, in six places.

ذِكْرٌ (Yoo, A'Obeyd, Yaakoob, S, M, A, Msb, K) and ↓ ذُكْرٌ, (Yoo, A'Obeyd, Yaakoob, S, A, Msb, K, TA,) or the latter only in the first of the senses here to be explained, (Fr, Msb, TA,) and the latter only is mentioned in this sense in the Fs, (TA,) and is said by El-Ahmar to be of the dial. of Kureysh, (TA,) [both said in the Msb to be simple substs., though many hold them to be inf. ns.,] and ↓ ذَكْرٌ, accord. to one of the expositors of the Fs, but this is strange, (TA,) and ↓ ذِكْرَةٌ (S, M) and ↓ ذُكْرَةٌ (M, TA) and ↓ ذِكْرَى, (S, M, [see 1, first sentence,]) and also دِكْرٌ (S) and دُكْرٌ, mentioned by ISd as of the dial. of Rabee'ah, but held by him to be of weak authority, (TA,) Remembrance; (S, M, A, Msb, K, &c.;) the presence of a thing in the mind: (Er-Rághib:) also termed ذِكْرٌ بِالقَلْبِ, (Msb, TA,) to distinguish it from ذِكْرٌ in another sense, to be explained below: (TA:) he pl. of ↓ ذِكْرَةٌ is ذِكَرٌ, (M,) also said to be pl. of ↓ ذِكْرَى. (MF, art. احد.) You say, ↓ اِجْعَلْهُ مِنْكَ عَلَى ذُكْرٍ and ذِكْرٍ in the same sense, Place thou him, or it, in thy remembrance. (S.) And أَجْعَلَهُ مِنِّى

↓ عَلَى ذُكْرٍ, and ذِكْرٍ, I will not forget him, or it. (A.) And ↓ مَا زَالَ مِنِّى عَلَى ذُكْرٍ, and ذِكْرٍ (K,) or the former only, (Fr, Msb, TA,) He, or it, did not cease to be in my remembrance; (K;) I did not forget him, or it. (Fr, TA.) and ↓ أَنْتَ مِنِّى عَلَى ذُكْرٍ Thou art in my mind. (ISd, Lb.) b2: The words in the Kur [xxix. 44]

وَلَذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ أَكْبَرُ admit of two explanations: The remembrance of God is better for a man than a man's remembrance of a man: and the remembrance of God is better as more efficacious in forbidding evil conduct than is prayer. (TA.) b3: ذِكْرٌ also signifies Memory; a certain quality of the mind, by which a man is able to remember what he cares to know; like حِفُظٌ, except that this latter term is used with regard to the preservation of a thing [in the mind], whereas the former is used with regard to calling it to mind.

ذَكَرٌ [probably originally signifying “ mentioned,” or “ talked of,” of the measure فَعَلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, like نَفَضٌ in the sense of مَنْفُوضٌ, and خَبَطٌ in the sense of مَخْبُوطٌ, and قَبَضٌ in the sense of مَقْبُوضٌ, &c.; and hence the first, and perhaps most others, of the significations here following:] Male; masculine; of the male, or masculine, sex, or gender; contr. of أُنْثَى: (S, A, Msb, K, &c.:) [the corresponding word in Hebrew () has been supposed to have this signification because a male is much “ mentioned,” or “ talked of; ” and it is well known that the Arabs make comparatively little account of a female:] pl. ذُكُورٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and ذُكُورَةٌ (A, Msb, K) and ذِكَارٌ (K) and ذِكَارَةٌ and ذُكْرَانٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and ذِكَرَةٌ: (S, K:) [the last, in one copy of the S, I find written ↓ ذِكْرَةٌ, which, if correct, is a pl. of pauc.: and in the TA, in the same phrase in which it occurs in the S, it is written ↓ ذُكْرَةٌ, and expressly said to be with damm, so that it is a quasi-pl. n.:] the pl. form with و and ن is not allowable. (Msb.) One says, كَمِ الذِّكَرَةُ مِنْ وَلَدِكَ, or ↓ الذِّكْرَةُ, (accord. to different copies of the S,) or ↓ الذُّكْرَةُ, with damm, (accord. to the TA,) How many are the males of thy children?

See 2. b9: Applied to a saying, (tropical:) Strong and firm: and in like manner to poetry. (A.) b10: The Arabs disliked a she-camel's bringing forth a male; and hence they applied the term ذَكَرٌ, met., to (tropical:) Anything disliked.
