A2: اعلف الطَّلْحُ The [trees called] طلح put forth their عُلَّف [q. v.]; (S, O, K;) as also ↓ علّف; but this is extr., for a verb of this meaning is [regularly] of the measure أَفْعَلَ only: (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K:) accord. to AA, as AHn states in mentioning the حُبْلَة, (O, TA,) ↓ علّف, (O, K,) inf. n. تَعْلِيفٌ, (K,) signifies they scattered their blossoms, and organized and compacted their fruit [i. e. their pods with the seeds therein]; expl. by تَنَاثَرَ وَرْدُهُ وَعَقَدَ [meaning عَقَدَ الثَّمَرَ]; (O, K;) like أَحْبَلَ.

(O.) [See also عَلِيفٌ.] b2: Also The food of the beast: pl. عُلُفٌ (K, TA) [and accord. to the CK and my MS. copy of the K عُلْفٌ also; but see what is said above, voce عِلْفٌ, respecting this latter].

المِجِسْطِى, (thus the Arabs term the great work of Ptolemy, which we, imitating them, commonly call “ Almagest,”)] النَّثْرَة (in Cancer) is mentioned by the name of المعلف: (Kzw, descr. of Cancer:) [but it is also said that] the Arabs thus call the seven stars that compose the constellation البَاطِيَة [i. e.

And عَبِقَ الشَّىْءُ بِقَلْبِى (tropical:) The thing stuck to my heart. (TA.) And عَبِقَ بِالمَكَانِ He remained, stayed, dwelt, or abode, in the place. (O, K.)

[See also رَصِعَ بِالطِّيبِ.]2 التَّعْبِيقُ signifies التَّذْكِيَةُ [used in relation to wine, app. as meaning The becoming old; though the latter word, thus used, is probably tropical]. (O, K.) 'Adee Ibn-Zeyd says, describing wine, صَانَهَا التَّاجِرُ اليَهُودِىُّ حَوْلَيْ نِ فَأَذْكَى مِنْ نَشْرِهَا التَّعْبِيقُ [which seems to be cited as meaning, The Jewish merchant kept it two years, and the becoming old enhanced its fragrance: but I think that the last word may be more properly rendered the making it to remain long in its jar].

(M, TA.) 7 انصفق It (a garment, or piece of cloth,) was beaten by the wind, so that it moved to and fro. (M. TA.) [See also 8.] b2: It (a door) became shut, or closed: and so with س: (TA in art. سفق:) [or it shut again of itself:] said of a door which, when opened, will not remain open.

Of a mountain, (S, O, K,) it signifies in like manner, (O,) its صَفْح, (S, O, K,) and its نَاحِيَة: (S:) [both of which signify as above: or by the former may be meant what here follows:] or its face, (M, K,) in the upper part thereof, above the حَضِيض [or low ground at, or by, the base, or foot]: (M:) pl. صُفُوقٌ.

صُفْقٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

صِفْقٌ, with kesr, The مِصْرَاع [i. e. either half, or leaf,] of a door [meaning of a folding door]: (K:) [or, accord. to the O, it is ↓ صَفْقٌ, for it is there said that صَفْقَا البَابِ means مِصْرَاعَاهُ; but SM follows the reading in the K without remarking upon the difference in the O; and adds,] and one says, بَابُ دَارِهِ صِفْقٌ وَاحِدٌ [meaning The door of his house is one leaf; i. e.] when it does not consist of what are termed مِصْرَاعَانِ. (TA.) صَفْقٌ: see صَفْقٌ.

(M.) b3: Also, accord. to AHn, (M,) or so ↓ صَفْقٌ, (K,) The odour, and savour, of دِبَاغ [or tan]. (M, K.) b4: And The former, accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, The last of دِبَاغ [or tan]: (O, TA:) in the K, آخِرُ الدِّمَاغِ is erroneously put for آخر الدِّبَاغ. (TA.) صَفْقَةٌ A striking of the hand [of one person] upon the hand [of another] in [ratifying] a sale or purchase and a covenant: (Mgh:) and ↓ صَفْقٌ is [used in the same sense, being an inf. n. and also] a subst. from the verb in the phrase صَفَقَ يَدَهُ بِالبَيْعَةِ [expl. in the first paragraph of this art.]; (M, K;) as also ↓ صِفِقَّى, like زِمِجَّى, (K,) or ↓ صِفَقَّى, (so in a copy of the M,) which is mentioned by Sb, (M, TA,) and of which Seer says that it may be from صَفْقُ الكَفِّ عَلَى الأُخْرَى. (TA. [See 1, first sentence.]) b2: Hence it is used to signify The contract itself that is made in the case of a sale, (Mgh, Msb,) and the covenant that one makes: (Mgh:) or an agreement respecting a thing: (M, TA:) Az says that it relates to the seller and the buyer. (Msb.) [and it is sometimes with س in the place of ص.] One says, رَبِحَتْ صَفْقَتُكَ i. e. [May] thy purchase [bring profit]. (S, O.) And بَارَكَ اللّٰهُ لَكَ فِى صَفْقَةِ يَمِينِكَ i. e. [May God bless thee in] the contract [(lit. the striking) of thy right hand]. (Msb.) And صَفْقَةٌ رَابِحَةٌ, and صَفْقَةٌ خَاسِرَةٌ, (S, O, K,) A sale or bargain [bringing gain, and a sale or bargain occasioning loss]. (K.) And إِنَّهُ لَمُبَارَكُ الصَّفْقَةِ [Verily he is blessed in respect of bargaining]; meaning that he buys not anything without gaining in it. (TA.) And قَدِ اشْتَرَيْتُ اليَوْمَ صَفْقَةً

صَالِحَةً [I have purchased to-day a good purchase]. (TA.) And البَيْعُ صَفْقَةٌ أَوْ خِيَارٌ Selling is decisive or with the option of returning. (Mgh.) And it is said in a trad. (of Ibn-Mes'ood, TA), صَفْقَتَانِ فِى صَفْقَةٍ رِبًا i. e. Two bargains in a [single] bargain [are an unlawful gain]: this is of two kinds: one is the seller's saying to the buyer, “I sell to thee such a thing for a hundred dirhems on the condition of thy buying of me this garment, or piece of cloth, for such a sum: ” the other kind is his saying, “I sell to thee this garment, or piece of cloth, for twenty dirhems on the condition of thy selling to me thy commodity for ten dirhems. ” (O.) And it is said in another trad., إِنَّ أَكْبَرَ الكَبَائِرِ أَنْ تُقَاتِلَ أَهْلَ صَفْقَتِكَ i. e. [Verily the greatest of great sins is] thy fighting those with whom thou hast made a covenant: because each of the two persons making a covenant puts his hand in the hand of the other, like as is done by each of two persons selling and buying. (TA.) صِفِقَّى or صِفَقَّى: see the next preceding paragraph.

صِفَاقٌ The inferior [or inner] skin, that is beneath the skin upon which is the hair: (S, O, K:) a thin skin beneath the upper skin and above the flesh: (IAth, TA:) or the صِفَاق of the belly is the skin, (M,) the inner skin, (TA,) that is next to the سَوَاد, (M, TA,) the سَوَاد of the belly, (TA,) [i. e. the liver,] and which is the part where the farrier perforates the beast (بَنْقُبُ مِنَ الدَّابَّةِ) [at the navel, in order that a yellow fluid may issue forth]: (M, TA:) or the صَفَاق is the part around the navel, where the farrier performs the operation above mentioned: (AA, TA:) or the skin which, when the مَسْك [or hide] is stripped off, remains cleaving to the belly, and the rending of which occasions a [rupture termed] فَتْق; so says As, in the “ Book of the Horse: ” (TA:) or what is between the جِلْد [or outer skin] and the مُصْرَان [or intestines into which the food passes from the stomach]; (ISh, O, K;) com-prising all of what are termed the مَرَاقّ of the belly, beneath the جِلْد thereof, to the سَوَاد of the belly [i. e. the liver]; the مَرَاقّ of the belly being all that has not a bone curving over it: (ISh, O:) or the skin of the whole of the belly: (O, K:) the pl. is صُفُقٌ, only. (M, TA.) صَفُوقٌ An abominable acclivity or ascending road or mountain-road difficult of ascent: pl. صَفَائِقُ and صُفُقٌ. (M, K.) And A mountain, (K,) or an obstacle, or elevated portion, of mountains, (O,) such as is inaccessible. (O, K.) And A smooth, high rock: pl. صُفُقٌ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) A2: Also, applied to a bow, Pliant. (Fr, O, K.) b2: [In the TA, in a verse of Aboo-Dhu-eyb describing a bow, to which it seems to be there applied as an epithet, it is expl. as signifying راجعة; but I think that this is a mistranscription for رَاجِفَةٌ, meaning Quivering. b3: Freytag has assigned to it three explanations which belong to صِفَاقٌ.]

صَفِيقٌ, applied to a garment, or piece of cloth, (S, M, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) strong, stout, or firm; (M;) thick, substantial, close, or compact, in texture: (Mgh, O, Msb, K:) and سَفِيقٌ is a dial. var. thereof. (TA.) b2: Also (assumed tropical:) Hardy, strong, sturdy, enduring, or patient. (M.) b3: And applied to a face (S, O, K, TA) as meaning (tropical:) Impudent; or having little shame. (O, K, TA.) And رَجُلٌ صَفِيقُ الوَجْهِ (assumed tropical:) A man having no shame. (Har p. 368.) صَفِيقَةٌ: see صَافِقَةٌ.

صَفَائِقُ Travelling-camels (رِكَابٌ) coming and going. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) b2: See also صَافِقَةٌ.

صَفَّاقٌ A cock that beats with his wings when crowing. (TA.) b2: It occurs in a trad., followed by أَفَّاق in apposition, and is said by As to mean اَلَّذِى يَصْفِقُ عَلَى أَمْرٍ عَظِيمٍ [app. One who goes away on some great affair]: but in the opinion of Az, it means one who makes many journeys, and who employs himself, or uses art or artifice or cunning, in affairs of traffic; thus nearly agreeing in meaning with أفَّاقٌ. (O: the latter meaning only is assigned to it in the K.) صَافِقَةٌ A company (IDrd, M, O, K) of men [alighting at one's abode]. (IDrd, M, O.) See 1, near the end. b2: Also A calamity, or misfortune: (M, TA:) pl. صَوَافِقُ: (M:) this pl. and ↓ صَفَائِقُ, (O, K, TA,) which latter may be pl. of ↓ صَفِيقَةٌ, (TA,) signify accidents, or evil accidents, (O, K, TA,) and varieties, or vicissitudes, of events. (O, TA.) أَصْفَقُ A garment, or piece of cloth, more [strong, stout, firm,] thick, substantial, close, or compact, in texture, than another. (Mgh.) أَصْفَقَانِيَّةٌ [written in one place with fet-h, and in another with kesr, to the ف,] i. q. خَوَلٌ [A man's slaves, or servants, and other dependents; or slaves, and cattle, or camels &c.;] in the dial. of El-Yemen. (TA.) مَصْفَقٌ A place of passage; a way, road, or path; syn. مَسْلَكٌ. (O, TA.) مُصَفَّقٌ [pass. part. n. of 2, q. v.]. One says, لَكَ عِنْدِى وُدٌّ مُصَفَّقٌ وَنُصْحٌ مُرَوَّقٌ (tropical:) [I have, for thee, an affection defecated like wine that has been transferred from one vessel to another and left to settle, and a benevolence purified like clarified wine]. (TA.) b2: Also A full [or filled] drinking-vessel. (Fr, TA.) مُصَافِقٌ A camel lying, or sleeping, upon one side one time and upon the other side another time. (O, K.) b2: And مُصَافِقٌ بَيْنَ ثَوْبَيْنِ Wearing two garments, one of them over the other. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.)

نظر

1 نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) and نَظَرَهُ, (M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (M, A, &c.,) and أَنْطُورٌ is substituted for أَنْظُرُ in the dial. of certain Arabs, (IDrd, TS, K,) or, accord. to Lb, in the Bughyetel-Ámál, the و is here added only [by poetic license,] to make the sound of the dammeh full, agreeably with other instances; (TA;) and نَظِرَ إِلَيْهِ, and نَظِرَهُ, aor. ـَ (A, K,) the verb being like سَمِعَ accord. to the correct copies of the K, [and so in the A,] but in one copy of the K, like ضَرَبَ; (TA;) inf. n. نَظَرٌ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) and نَظْرٌ is allowable, as a contraction of the former, (Lth,) and نَظَرَانٌ (S, K,) and مَنْظَرٌ (M, A, K) and مَنْظَرَةٌ and تَنْظارٌ, (M, K,) [which last is an intensive form; He looked at, or towards, in order to see, him, or it;] he considered, or viewed, him or it with his eye; (S, A, K;) with the sight of the eye; (Msb;) [i. e. looked at him or it;] as also ↓ تنظّرهُ: (K:) and ↓ انتظرهُ signifies the same as تنظّرهُ and نَظَرَهُ [but app. in another sense, to be mentioned below, and not in the sense explained above, though the latter is implied in the TA; and the same may be meant when it is said that ↓ تنظّر is syn. with نَظَرَ, if this assertion, which I find in the M, have been copied without consideration, and be not confirmed by an example]: (TA:) or نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ signifies he extended, or stretched, or raised, [or directed,] his sight towards him or it, whether he saw him or did not see him. (TA.) The usage of النَّظَرٌ as relating to the sight is most common with the vulgar, but not with persons of distinction, who use it more in another sense, to be explained below. (TA.) You say, نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ نَظْرَةً حُلْوَةً [He looked at him, or towards him, with one sweet look.] (A.) And نَظَرَ فِى المِنْظَارِ [He looked in the mirror]. (A.) And نَظَرَ فِى الكِتَابِ [He looked into, or inspected, the writing or book], (A, Msb,) which is for نَظَرَ المَكْتُوبَ فِى الكِتَابِ [he looked at what was written in the writing or book], or has a different meaning to be explained below. (Msb.) And هُوَ يَنْظُرُ حَوْلَهُ [lit., He looks around him; meaning,] he looks much. (A.) [See also نَظَرٌ below.] b2: نَظَرَتِ الأَرْضُ, (Sgh, K,) and نَظَرَتِ الأَرْضُ بِعَيْنٍ, and بِعَيْنَيْنِ, (A,) (tropical:) The earth, or land, showed (A, Sgh, K) to the eye (Sgh, K) its plants or herbage. (A, Sgh, K.) b3: نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ (tropical:) It looked towards, meaning faced, him or it. So in the Kur, [vii. 197,] وَتَرَاهُمْ يَنْظُرُونَ إِلَيْكَ وَهُمْ لَا يُبْصِرُونَ (tropical:) Thou seest them look towards thee, i. e., face thee, but they see not; referring to idols, accord. to A'Obeyd. (TA.) And you say, دَارِى يَنْظُرُ إِلَى دَارِ فُلَانٍ (tropical:) My house faces the house of such a one. (S.) And نَظَرَ إِلَيْكَ الجَبَلُ (tropical:) The mountain faced thee:(A:) as in the following ex.: إِذَا أَخَذْتَ فِى طَرِيقِ كَذَا فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْكَ الجَبَلُ فَخُذْ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَوْيَسَارِهِ (tropical:) [When thou takest such a road, and the mountain faces thee, then take thou the way by the right of it or the left of it.] (S.) b4: [Hence, perhaps,] نَظَرَ الدَّهْرُ إِلَى بَنِى فُلَانٍ فَأَهْلَكَهُمْ [app. meaning, (assumed tropical:) Fortune opposed the sons of such a one and destroyed them]: (S [immediately following there the ex. which immediately precedes it here:]) or نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمُ الدَّهْرُ signifies (tropical:) Fortune destroyed them: (M, A:) but (says ISd) I am not certain of this. (M.) b5: النَّظَرُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The turning the mind in various directions in order to perceive a thing [mentally], and the seeing a thing: and sometimes it means (assumed tropical:) the considering and investigating: [and as a subst., speculation, or intellectual examination:] and sometimes, (assumed tropical:) the knowledge that results from [speculation or] investigation. (El-Basáïr.) It is mostly used as relating to the intellect by persons of distinction; and as relating to the sight, most commonly by the vulgar. (TA.) [It is said that] when you say نَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ, it means only [I looked at, or towards, him or it] with the eye: but when you say نَظَرْتُ فِى الأَمْرِ, it may mean [(assumed tropical:) I looked into, inspected, examined, or investigated, the thing or affair] by thought and consideration, intellectually, or with the mind: (TA:) [this remark, however, is not altogether correct, as may be seen from what follows: the truth seems to be, that نَظَرَهُ and نَظَرَإِلَيْهِ may be used in the latter of these two senses, though نَظَرَ فِيهِ is most common in this sense.] It is said in the Kur, [x. 101,] قُلِ انْظُرُوا مَا ذَا فِى السَّمٰوَاتِ (assumed tropical:) Say, Consider ye what is in the heavens. (TA.) And you say, نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ He saw it, and (assumed tropical:) thought upon it, and endeavoured to understand it, or to know its result. (TA.) [And He looked to it, or at it, or examined it, intellectually; regarded it; had a view to it.] And نَظَرَ فِيهِ (assumed tropical:) He considered it: (TA:) or thought upon it; namely a writing or book; or when such is the object it may have another meaning, explained before; and an affair: and with this is held to accord the saying وَفِيهِ نَظَرٌ, q. v. infrà, voce نَظَرٌ: (Msb:) and (tropical:) he though upon it, measuring it, or comparing it. (M, K, TK. In the M and K, only the inf. n., نَظَرَ فِى أَمْوَالِ الأَيْتَامِ, of the verb in this sense is mentioned.) And فَنَطَرَ نَظْرَةً فِى النُّجُومِ (assumed tropical:) He considered, or examined, [or estimated,] the possessions of the orphans, in order to know them. (Msb.) And similar to this is the phrase [in the Kur, xxxvii. 86,] النَّظَرُ, meaning, (assumed tropical:) and he examined the science of the stars: (Msb:) [or he took a mental view of the stars, as if to divine from them.] الاِعْتِبَارُ when used unrestrictedly by those who treat of scholastic theology means الاِعْتِبَارُ [(assumed tropical:) The thinking upon a thing, and endeavouring to understand it, or to know its result; or judging of what is hidden from what is apparent; or reasoning from analogy]. (MF.) b6: نَظَرَ بَيْنَهُمْ, inf. n. نَظَرٌ, [app. for نَظَرَ فِى مَا بَيْنَهُمْ,] (assumed tropical:) He judged between them. (K.) b7: نَظَرَتْ, (TA,) inf. n. نَظَرٌ, (assumed tropical:) She practised divination; (K, * TA;) which is a kind of examination with insight and skill. (TA, from a trad.) b8: أُنْظُرْ لِى فُلَانًا (tropical:) [look thou out for such a one for me;] seek thou for me such a one. (A, TA.) b9: أُنْظُرْنِى (assumed tropical:) Listen thou to me. (M, K, TA [in the CK, erroneously, أُنْطِرْنِى.]) The verb [says ISd] has this meaning in the Kur, ii. 98. (M.) b10: أَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى اللّٰهِ ثُمَّ إِلَيْكَ [lit., I look to God, then to thee; meaning,] (tropical:) I look for the bounty of God, then for thy bounty. (A.) b11: نَظَرَ اللّٰهُ إِلَيْهِ (tropical:) God chose him, and compassionated him, pitied him, or regarded him with mercy; because looking at another is indicative of love, and not doing so is indicative of hatred: (IAth:) or (assumed tropical:) God bestowed benefits upon him; poured blessings, or favours, upon him: (El-Basáïr:) and نَظَرَ لَهُمْ (tropical:) he compassionated them, and aided them; (Sgh, K;) and simply, he aided them: (K, * TA:) and نَظَرَ لَهُ (assumed tropical:) he accomplished his want, or that which he (another) wanted. (Msb.) A2: نَظَرَهُ is also syn. with ↓ إِتْنَظَرَهُ, q. v. b2: Also syn. with أَنْظَرَهُ, q. v. b3: Also نَظَرَهُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. نَظْرٌ; (TA;) or ↓ نَظَّرَهُ; (so in a copy of the M, and in the CK; but from the mention of the inf. n. in the TA, the former seems to be the right reading;) He sold it (a thing, M) with postponement of the payment; he sold it upon credit. (M, * K, * TA.) See also 4. b4: [In these last three acceptations, accord. to the A, the verb is used properly, not tropically.]

A3: نُظِرَ He was, or became, affected by what is termed a نَظْرَة; (K, TA;) i. e., a stroke of an [evil] eye; (TA;) [or of an evil eye cast by a jinnee;] or a touch, or slight taint of insanity, from the jinn; (K;) or a swoon. (K, TA.) 2 نَظَّرَ see 1, last signification but one. b2: نظّر فِيهِ [He said of it فِيهِ نَظَرٌ, q. v.]. (TA passim.) 3 نَاظَرَهُ فِى أَمْرٍ, inf. n. مُنَاظَرَةٌ, (T, S, *) (tropical:) He considered, or examined, or investigated, with him a thing or an affair, to see how they should do it: (T, TA:) he investigated, or examined, with him a thing, and emulated him, or vied with him, in doing so, each of them adducing his opinion: (TA:) [he held a discussion with him respecting a thing:] or نَاظَرَهُ is syn. with جَادَلَهُ: (Msb:) or مناظرة signifies the examining mentally, or investigating, by two parties, the relation between two things, in order to evince the truth; (KT; and Kull, p. 342;) and sometimes with one's self; but مجادلة signifies the disputing respecting a question of science for the purpose of convincing the opponent, whether what he says be wrong in itself or not. (Kull.) b2: Also ناظرهُ [(tropical:) He, or it, looked towards, or faced, him, or it; was opposite, or corresponded, to him or it. (See نَظِيرٌ.)] b3: (tropical:) He was, or became, like him: (A, K:) or like him in discourse or dialogue. (TA.) b4: جَيْشٌ يُنَاظِرُ أَلْفًا (tropical:) An army that is nearly equal to a thousand. (A.) b5: نَاظَرَ فُلَانًا بِفُلَانٍ (tropical:) He made, or called, such a one like such a one. (K.) Hence the saying of Ez-Zuhree, (K,) Mohammad Ibn-Shiháb, (TA,) لَا تُنَاظِرْ بِكِتَابِ اللّٰهِ وَلَا بِكَلَامِ رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ, i. e., Thou shalt not call anything like the book of God, nor like the words of the apostle of God: (A'Obeyd, T, K:) or thou shalt not compare anything, nor call anything like, to the book of God, &c.: (A,) or thou shalt not apply [aught of] the book of God, nor the words of the apostle of God, as a proverb to a thing that happens: (A'Obeyd, T, K; in which last, we read لِشَىْءٍ لِغَرَضٍ, in the place of the right reading, لِشَىْءٍ يَعْرِضُ: TA:) for, as Ibráheem En-Nakha'ee says, they used to dislike the mentioning a verse of the Kur-án on the occasion of anything happening, of worldly events; (T;) as a person's saying to one who has come at a time desired by the former, (TA,) or to one named Moosà, who has come at a time desired, (K,) جِئْتَ عَلَى قَدَرٍ يَا مُوسَى [Thou hast come at a time appointed, O Moosà: (Kur, xx. 42:)] (T, K:) and the like: (T:) but the first explanation is the most probable (TA, as from Az; but I do not find it in the T) 4 أُنْظِرَ بِهِ (tropical:) [He, or it, was made like]. Yousay, مَا كَانَ هٰذَا نَظِيرًا لِهٰذَا وَلَقَدْ أُنْظِرَ بِهِ (tropical:) [This was not like this, but has been made like]. (T, K:) like as you say, مَا كَانَ خَظِيرًا لَهُ وَلَقَدْ

أُخْطِرَ بِهِ. (T.) A2: انظرهُ He postponed him; delayed him: (M, A, Msb, K:) he granted him a delay or respite; let him alone, or left him, for a while: (T, TA:) as, for instance, a debtor, (T, Msb, TA,) and a man in difficult circumstances: (TA:) and ↓ نَظَرَهُ signifies the same. (Msb.) You say, بِعْتُهُ شَيْئًا فَأَنْظَرْتُهُ I sold to him a thing, and granted him a delay. (T.) And a person speaking says to him who hurries him, أَنْظِرْنى أَبْتَلِعْ رِيقِى Grant me time to swallow my spittle. (T.) And it is said in the Kur, [xv. 36 and xxxviii. 80,] فَأَنْظِرْنِى إِلَى يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ Then delay me until the day when they shall be raised from the dead. (TA.) See also 8. b2: He sold to him a thing with postponement of the payment; he sold to him a thing upon credit. (M.) See also 1 last signification but one.5 تَنَظَّرَ see 1, first signification.

(TA.) 4 اساعهُ He left to himself, or itself, left alone, or neglected, and lost, or destroyed, him, or it. (K.)

You say, أَسَعْتُ الإِبِلَ I left the camels to themselves, left them alone, or neglected them. (S.)

(Bd.) And so in a trad., where it is said, مَنْ رَاحَ فِى السَّاعَةِ الأُولَى Whoso goeth in the first time; not in the first astronomical ساعة, for then it would necessarily mean that he who should come in the latter part thereof would be on a par with the former person, which is not the case. (Msb.) [سَاعَةً signifies, as shown above, For, or during, an hour: and awhile; for a little while; during a short time; as in the phrase,] جَلَسْتُ عِنْدَكَ سَاعَةً I sat with thee, or at thine abode, for a little while, or during a short time. (TA.) [And فِى سَاعَةٍ, In a short time: in a moment. And السَّاعَةَ, Now: just now: this moment. And سَاعَتَئِذٍ, Then; at that time: or in that hour.] And مُذْ سَاعَةٌٍ [A little while ago;] in the first time near to us: (K in art. انف:) or this signifies السَّاعَةَ [expl. above]. (Zj, T and M in art. انف.) [And مِنْ سَاعَتِهِ At the moment thereof; instantly. Hence, سَمَّ سَاعَةٍ An instantaneous poison.] b2: السَّاعَةُ also signifies (tropical:) The resurrection; (S, K, TA;) the raising of mankind for the reckoning; also termed السَّاعَةُ الكُبْرَى: (Er-Rághib, B:) or the time thereof: (K:) because of the quickness with which its reckoning will be accomplished: (TA:) or because it will come suddenly upon mankind, in a moment, and all creatures will die at one cry. (Zj, Az, TA.) Hence, in the Kur [liv. 1], اِقْتَرَبَتِ السَّاعَةُ (tropical:) The resurrection [or the time thereof] hath drawn nigh. (Jel, TA.) And [in vii. 186 and lxxix. 42,] يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ السَّاعَةِ (tropical:) They ask thee concerning the resurrection [or the time thereof]. (Bd, Jel, TA.) And [in xxxi. last verse and xliii. 85,] عِنْدَهُ عِلْمُ السَّاعَةِ (tropical:) With Him is the knowledge of the resurrection, (TA,) or of the time thereof. (Bd, Jel.) b3: Also (assumed tropical:) The death of one generation; termed, for distinction, السَّاعَةُ الوُسْطَى: as in the saying of Mohammad, when he saw 'AbdAllah Ibn-Uneys, إِنْ يَطُلْ عُمْرُ هٰذَا الغُلَامِ لَمْ يَمُتْ حَتَّى تَقُومَ السَّاعَةُ (assumed tropical:) [If the life of this boy last long, he will not die until the death of the generation shall come to pass]: accordingly it is said that he was the last that died of the Companions. (Er-Rághib, B.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) The death of any man; termed, for distinction, السَّاعَةُ الصُّغْرَى: as in the Kur [vi. 31], قَدْ خَسِرَ الَّذَينَ كَذَّبُوا بِلِقَآءِ اللّٰهِ حَتَّى إِذَا جَآءَتْهُمُ السَّاٰعَةُ بَغْتَةً (assumed tropical:) [They have suffered loss who disbelieved in, or denied as false, the meeting with God until, when death came to them suddenly]. (Er-Rághib, B) b5: Also (assumed tropical:) Difficulty, distress, or affliction; and so ↓ السَّاعُ. (TA.) b6: And (assumed tropical:) Distance, or remoteness. (TA.) A2: See also سَائِعٌ.

سَاعَةٌ سَوْعَآءُ A severe, grievous, or distressing [hour or time]; (S, K;) like the phrase لَيْلَةٌ لَيْلَآءُ. (S.) سُوَاعٌ: see سَوْعٌ.

A2: Also, (S, K, [in the CK erroneously without tenween,]) and سَوَاعٌ, (Kh, K,) A certain idol (S, K) which belonged to the people of Noah, (S,) in whose time it was worshipped; then the deluge buried it, but Iblees exhumed it, and it was worshipped [again]; (K;) so says Lth; (TA;) then it became the property of [the tribe of] Hudheyl, (S, K,) and was at Ruhát, (S,) and pilgrimage was performed to it: (S, K:) or it belonged to [the tribe of] Hemdán: (Bd, TA:) Abu-l-Mundhir says, I have not heard the mention of it in the poems of Hudheyl: but one of the Arabs, in verse, mentions Hudheyl as paying devotion to it: (TA:) it is said that it had the form of a woman: (Har p. 362:) [if so, as a fem. proper name, it would be without tenween: but] it is mentioned in the Kur [lxxi. 22, and is there with tenween]. (TA.) [See also وَدٌّ.]

هُوَ ضَائِعٌ سَائِعٌ He is left to himself, left alone, or neglected. (S, * K, * TA.) ↓ سَاعَةٌ [is pl. of سَائِعٌ; and also signifies] In a state of perdition or destruction; perishing; or dying; in a pl. sense; like جَاعَةٌ as signifying جِيَاعٌ, (K,) and طَاعَةٌ as signifying مُطِيعُونَ. (TA.) مُسِيعٌ: see the following paragraph.

مِسْيَاعٌ A she-camel that leaves her young one so that the beasts of prey devour it: (Sh, K:) or a she-camel that goes away in the place of pasturing: (S:) belonging to this art. and to art. سيع, q. v. (K.) You say also, رَجُلٌ مِضْيَاعٌ مِسْيَاعٌ لِلْمَالِ [A man who is wont to neglect the camels or the like; or to leave them to themselves, or alone; or to lose them]; and accord. to A'Obeyd, مُضِيعٌ

↓ مُسِيعٌ. (S.)

زوج

2 زوّج شَيْئًا بِشَىْءٍ, and زوّجهُ إِلَيْهِ, [inf. n. تَزْوِيجٌ,] He coupled, or paired, a thing with a thing; united it to it as its fellow, or like. (TA.) So in the Kur [xliv. 54 and lii. 20], زَوَّجْنَاهُمْ بِحُورٍ عِينٍ

We will couple them, or pair them, [with females having eyes like those of gazelles:] (S, Mgh, K, TA:) the meaning is not the تَزْوِيج commonly known, [i. e. marriage,] for there will be no [such] تزويج in Paradise. (MF, TA.) And so in the Kur [lxxxi. 7], وَإِذَا النُّفُوسُ زُوِّجَتْ and when the souls shall be coupled, or paired, or united with their fellows: (TA:) i. e., with their bodies: (Bd, Jel:) or, each with its register: (Bd:) or with its works: (Bd, TA:) or the souls of the believers with the حُور, and those of the unbelievers with the devils: (Bd:) or when each sect, or party, shall be united with those whom it has followed. (TA.) And so in the phrase, زَوَّجْتُ إِبِلِى I coupled, or paired, my camels, one with another: (A:) or زَوَّجْتُ بَيْنَ الإِبِلِ I coupled, or paired, every one of the camels with another. (TA.) So too in the Kur [xlii. 49], أَوْ يُزَوِّجُهُمْ ذُكْرَانًا وَإِنَاثًا Or He maketh them couples, or pairs, males and females: or, accord. to AM, maketh them of different sorts [or sexes], males and females: for b2: تَزْوِيجٌ signifies [also] The making to be of different sorts or species [&c.]. (TA.) b3: زَوَّجْتُهُ امْرَأَةً, (T, S, A, * Mgh, Msb, K,) thus the Arabs say accord. to Yoo (S, Mgh) and ISK, (Mgh,) making the verb doubly trans. by itself, [without a particle,] meaning I married him, or gave him in marriage, to a woman; (Msb, TA;) as also بِامْرَأَةٍ; (A, K;) Akh says that this is allowable [app. as being of the dial. of Azd-Shanooäh (see 5)]: (Msb, TA:) [when the verb is trans. by means of بِ, it generally has the meaning expl. in the first sentence of this art.:] زَوَّجْتُ مِنْهُ امْرَأَةً is not of the language of the Arabs: (T, Mgh, TA:) [but see a similar phrase in a verse cited in art. حصن, conj. 4:] the lawyers say, زَوَّجْتُهُ مِنْهَا [meaning I married him to her]; but this is a phrase for which there is no reasonable way of accounting, unless that it is accord. to the opinion of those who hold that مِنْ may be redundant in an affirmative proposition, or that of those who hold that it may be substituted for بِ. (Msb.) 3 زاوجهُ, [inf. n. مُزَاوَجَةٌ and زِوَاجٌ] It, or he, was, or became, a couple, or pair, with it, or him: or made a coupling, or pairing, with it, or him. (MA.) [And زَاوَجَا They two formed together a couple, or pair.] b2: [And زاوجا, inf. n. as above, They married each other.] You say, هُذَيْلٌ يُزَاوِجُ عِكْرِمَةَ [The tribe of Hudheyl intermarry with that of 'Ikrimeh]. (A. [See also 6.]) b3: زاوج بَيْنَهُمَا and ↓ ازوج (tropical:) [He made them two (referring to sentences or phrases) to have a mutual resemblance in their prose-rhymes, or in measure: or to be connected, each with the other; or dependent, each on the other]. (A, TA.) See also 8, in three places.4 أَزْوَجَ see the next preceding paragraph.5 تَزَوَّجْتُ امْرَأَةً, (T, S, A, * Mgh, Msb, K,) thus the Arabs say accord. to Yoo (S, Mgh) and ISK, (Mgh,) meaning I married a woman; i. e., took a woman in marriage; took her as my wife; (Msb, TA;) as also بِامْرَأَةٍ; (A, * K;) or this is rare; (K;) Akh says that it is allowable; (Msb, TA;) and it is said to be of the dial. of AzdShanooäh, (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) by Fr; (S, TA;) but accord. to Yoo (S, Mgh) and ISK, (Mgh,) it is not of the language of the Arabs. (T, S, Mgh.) And تزوّج فِى بَنِى فُلَانٍ (A, Msb, TA) He married, or took a wife, among the sons of such a one. (Msb, TA.) And تزوّج إِلَيْهِ i. q. خَاتَنَهُ [He allied himself to him by marriage]. (K in art. ختن.) b2: [Hence,] تزوّجهُ النَّوْمُ (assumed tropical:) Sleep pervaded him; syn. خَالَطَهُ. (K.) 6 تزاوج القَوْمُ and ↓ اِزْدَوَجُوا The people, or party, married one another; intermarried. (TA. [See also 3.]) b2: See also the next paragraph, in three places.8 اِزْدَوَجَتِ الطَّيْرُ [The birds coupled, or paired, one with another]. (TA.) b2: See also 6. b3: اِزْدَوَجَا and ↓ تَزَاوَجَا [and ↓ زَاوَجَا], said of two phrases, or sentences, (A, TA,) (tropical:) They bore a mutual resemblance in their prose-rhymes, or in measure: or were connected, each with the other; or dependent, each on the other: and in like manner, ازدوج and ↓ تزاوج, said of a phrase, or sentence, (tropical:) It was such that one part of it resembled another in the prose-rhyme, or in the measure: or consisted of two propositions connected, each with the other; or dependent, each on the other: (TA:) اِزْدِوَاجٌ and ↓ مُزَاوَجَةٌ (S, A, K) and ↓ تَزَاوُجٌ (S) are syn.: (S, A, * K:) ازدواج signifies A conformity, or mutual resemblance, [with respect to sound, or measure,] of two words occurring near together; as in the phrase مِنْ سَبَأٍ بِنَبَأٍ

[in the Kur xxvii. 22]: (Kull p. 31:) and this is also termed ↓ مُزَاوَجَةٌ and مُحَاذَاةٌ and مُوَازَنَةٌ and مُقَابَلَةٌ and مُؤَازَاةٌ. (Marginal note in a copy of the Muzhir, 22nd نوع.) زَاجٌ [Vitriol;] a well-known kind of salt; (K, TA;) called شَبٌّ يَمَانِىٌّ; [but see شَبٌّ;] which is a medicinal substance, and one of the ingredients of ink: (Lth, TA:) [pl. زَاجَاتٌ, meaning species, or sorts, of vitriol; namely, green, or sulphate of iron, which is an ingredient in ink, and is generally meant by the term زاج when unrestricted by an epithet; blue, or sulphate of copper; and white, or sulphate of zinc:] it is a Pers\. word, (S,) arabicized, (S, K,) originally زاگ. (TA.) زَوْجٌ primarily signifies A sort of thing of any kind [that is one of a pair or couple]: and زَوْجَانِ signifies a pair, or couple, i. e. any two things paired or coupled together, whether they be likes or contraries: زَوْجٌ signifying either one of such two things: (Az, TA:) or, accord. to 'Alee Ibn-'Eesà, a sort of thing [absolutely]: (Mgh:) or a sort of thing having its like, (El-Ghooree, Mgh, Msb,) as in the case of species; (Msb;) or having its contrary, (El-Ghooree, Mgh, Msb,) as the moist and the dry, and the male and the female, and the night and the day, and the bitter and the sweet; (Msb;) though sometimes applied to any sort of thing; and to a single thing: (El-Ghooree, Mgh:) or it is applied to a single thing only when having with it a thing of the same kind; (Mgh, Msb;) زَوْجَانِ signifying a pair, or couple, of such things: (Mgh:) the pl. is أَزْوَاجِ: (TA:) you say زَوْجَانِ مِنْ حَمَامٍ and زَوْجَا حَمَامٍ [A pair of pigeons]: (A:) and اِشْتَرَيْتُ زَوْجَى حَمَامٍ [I bought a pair of pigeons], meaning a male and a female: (S:) and زَوْجَا نِعَالٍ [A pair of sandals]: (S, A:) and in like manner زَوْجَيْنِ is used in the Kur xi. 42 and xxiii. 28; (S;) meaning a male and a female: (Bd, Jel:) or, accord. to the M, زَوْجٌ signifies one of a pair or couple: and also a pair or couple together: (TA:) and in like manner says AO, (Mgh, Msb,) and IKt, and IF: (Msb:) and ISh says that it signifies two; (Mgh;) and so says IDrd: (Msb:) so that you say, هُمَا زَوْجٌ as well as هُمَا زَوْجَانِ [meaning They two are a pair, or couple]; (S, K, TA;) like as you say, هُمَا سَوَآءٌ and هُمَا سِيَّانِ: (S, TA:) and عِنْدِى زَوْجُ نِعَالٍ, meaning [I have] two [sandals]; and زَوْجَانِ, meaning four: (Msb:) or زَوْجُ حَمَامٍ as meaning a male and a female [of pigeons] is a phrase which should not be used; one to which the vulgar are addicted: (TA:) IAmb says, the vulgar are wrong in thinking that زَوْجٌ signifies two; for the Arabs used not to employ such a phrase as زَوْجُ حَمَامٍ, but used to say زَوْجَانِ مِنَ الحَمَامِ, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) meaning a male and a female; (TA;) and زَوْجَانِ مِنَ الخِفَافِ, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) meaning the right and the left [of boots]: (TA:) nor did they apply the term زَوْجٌ to one of birds, like as they applied the dual, زَوْجَانِ, to two; but they applied the term فَرْدٌ to the male, and فَرْدَةٌ to the female: (Mgh, Msb:) Es-Sijistánee, also, says that the term زَوْجٌ should not be applied to two, neither of birds nor of other things, for this is a usage of the ignorant; but to every two, زَوْجَانِ: (Msb:) Az says that the grammarians disapprove the saying of ISh that زَوْجٌ signifies two of any things, (Mgh, * TA,) and that زَوْجَانِ مِنْ خِفَافٍ signifies [Two pairs of boots, or] four [boots]; for زَوْجٌ with them signifies one [of a pair or couple]: a man and his wife [together] are termed زَوْجَانِ: and ثَمَانِيَةَ أَزْوَاجٍ in the Kur [vi. 144 and xxxix. 8] means Eight ones [of pairs or couples]: the primary meaning of زَوْجٌ being that first mentioned in this paragraph; (TA:) in the Kur xxii. 5 and 1. 7 [it seems to be implied that it means pair or couple; but more probably in these instances] it means sort, or species: (Bd, Jel:) it is also expl. by the word لَوْنٌ [used in this last sense]: (T, TA;) in the Kur xxxviii. 58, its pl. أَزْوَاجٌ means أَلْوَانٌ and أَنْوَاعٌ [i. e. sorts, or species] of punishment: F explains the sing. as meaning لَوْنٌ مِنَ الدِّيبَاجِ وَنَحْوِهِ [a sort, or species, of silk brocade and the like]; but his restricting the signification by the words من الديباج ونحوه is not right, as is shown by a citation, in the T, of a verse of El-Aashà, in which he uses the phrase كُلُّ زَوْجٍ مِنَ الدِّيبَاجِ [every sort, or species, of silk brocade], as an ex. of زوج in the sense of لون. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] A woman's husband: and a man's wife: in which latter sense ↓ زَوْجَةٌ is also used; (S, M, A, Mgh, * Msb, K; *) as in a verse of El-Farezdak cited in art بول, conj. 10; (S, Mgh;) but it is disallowed by As; (TA;) and the former word is the one of high authority, (Mgh, Msb,) and is that which occurs in the Kur, in ii. 33 and vii. 18, (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) and in iv. 24, (Mgh, TA,) and in xxxiii. 37: (Mgh:) AHát says that the people of Nejd call a wife ↓ زَوْجَةٌ, and that the people of the Haram use this word: but ISk says that the people of El-Hijáz call a wife زَوْجٌ; and the rest of the Arabs, ↓ زَوْجَةٌ: the lawyers use this latter word only, as applied to a wife, for the sake of perspicuity, fearing to confound the male with the female: (Msb:) the pl. of زَوْجٌ is أَزْوَاجٌ (Msb, K *) and زِوَجَةٌ; (K;) and the pl. of ↓ زَوْجَةٌ is زَوْجَاتٌ (A, Mgh, Msb) and أَزْوَاجٌ also; (A, Msb;) and أَزَاوِيجُ occurs [as a pl. pl., i. e. pl. of أَزْوَاجُ,] in a verse cited by ISk. (TA in art. نأج.) b3: [Hence also,] A consociate, an associate, or a comrade: (A:) its pl. in this sense is أَزْوَاجٌ, (S, A, K,) occurring in the Kur xxxvii. 22. (S, A.) b4: And A fellow, or like: pl. أَزْوَاجٌ: in this sense, each one of a pair of boots is the زوج of the other; and the husband is the زوج of the wife; and the wife, the زوج of the husband. (TA.) You say, عِنْدِى مِنْ هٰذَا أَزْوَاجٌ I have, of this, fellows, or likes. (TA.) b5: As used by arithmeticians, (Mgh, Msb,) contr. of فَرْدٌ; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) i. e. it signifies An even number; a number that may be divided into two equal numbers; (Msb;) as, for instance, four, and eight, as opposed to three, and seven: (Mgh:) pl. أَزْوَاجٌ. (S, Mgh.) One says زَوْجٌ أَوْ فَرْدٌ [Even or odd?], like as one says خَسًا أَوْ زَكًا [or rather زَكًا أَوْ خَسًا] and شَفْعٌ أَوْ وِتْرٌ. (S, Mgh.) b6: Also A [kind of cloth such as is termed] نَمَط [q. v.]: or silk brocade; syn. دِيبَاجٌ: (TA:) or a نَمَط that is thrown over the [kind of vehicle called]

هَوْدَج. (S, K, TA.) زِيجٌ: see art. زيج.

زَوْجَةٌ: see زَوْجٌ, in four places, in the latter half of the paragraph.

زَوْجِيَّةٌ and ↓ زَوَاجٌ [The marriage-state, or simply marriage]: the latter is a subst. from زَوَّجَ, [i. e. a quasi-inf. n.,] like سَلَامٌ from سَلَّمَ, and كَلَامٌ from كَلَّمَ. (Msb.) You say, بَيْنَهُمَا حَقُّ الزَّوْجِيَّةِ and ↓ الزَّوَاجِ [Between them two is the right of the marriage-state, or of marriage]: (A, Msb:) and الزِّوَاجِ is also allowable as [an inf. n. of 3,] coordinate to المُزَاوَجَة. (Msb.) زَوَاجٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

زَائِجَةٌ: see art زيج.

مِزْوَاجٌ A woman who marries often: (S, K:) one who has had many husbands. (K.)

By itself; (Msb;) and استمع [also] in sys. With سَمِعَ [ as trans. by itself]: (Ham p. 694, where occurs a usage of its act. part. n. showing the verb to be trans. by itself:) or ↓ استمع denotes what is intentional, signifying only he gave ear, hearkened, or listened: but سَمِعَ, [as also ↓ تمسمّع and ↓ استسمع,] what is unintentional, as well as what is intentional. (Msb.) You say, سَمِعَ الشَّىْءَ [He heard or listened to, the thing] (S.) And الصَّوْتَ ↓ تسمّع [He listened to, or heard, the sound]. (TA.) [and سَمِعْتُ لَهُ صَوْتًا I heard him, or it, utter, or produce, a sound; lit. I heard a sound attributable to him, or it. And سَمِعَهُ مِنْهُ He heard it form him. And سَمِعَهُ عَنْهُ He heard it as related from him; he heard it on his authority. And سَمِعَهُ يَقُولُ كَذَا He heard him say such a thing.] and سَمِعَ بِهِ [He heard of it; for سَمِعَ التَّكَلُّمَ بِهِ, or the like]. (Kur xii. 31 and xxviii. 36 and xxxviii. 6, S, K, TA.) [When trans. by means of لِ alone, or إِلَى, it denotes what is intentional.] You say, سَمِعْتُ لَهُ, (S, Msb, TA,) and إِلَيْهِ, (S, TA,) meaning I gave ear, hearkened, or listened, to him, or it; (S, Msb, * TA;) and له ↓ تسمّعت (Msb,) or اليه, and اِسَّمَّعْتُ, (S, TA,) signify the same; (S, Msb, TA;) and so له ↓ استمعت, (S, Msb, K,) and اليه. (K.) It is said in the Kur [xxxvii. 8], accord. to different readings, لَا يَسْمَعُونَ إِلَى المَلَإِ الأَعْلَى, and ↓ لَا يَسَّمَّعُونَ, They shall not listen [to the archangels]: (S:) or the former has this signification, they shall not listen to the angels (Bd, Jel) in heaven, (Jel,) or the exalted angels: (Bd:) and ↓ the latter, they shall not seek, or endeavour, to listen &c. (Bd.) and in the same [xvii. 50], ↓ نَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا يَسْتَمِعُونَ بِهِ إِذْ يَسْتَمِعُونَ إِلَيْكَ [We are cognizant of that on account of which they hearken when they hearken to thee]; به meaning بِسَبَبِهِ, (Bd, Jel,) and لِأَجْلِهِ, (Bd,) alluding to scoffing, or derision. (Bd, Jel.) [For various usages of سَمْعٌ and other inf. ns., whether employed as inf. ns. or as simple substs., see those words below.] b2: It also signifies He understood it; (TA;) he understood its meaning; i. e., the meaning of a person's speech. (Msb.) You say, لَمْ تَسْمَعْ مَا قُلْتُ لَكَ Thou didst not understand what I said to thee. (TA.) and such is the most obvious meaning of the verb in the saying, إِنْ كَانَ يَسْمَعُ الخَطِيبَ [If he understand the words of the preacher]; for this is the proper meaning in this case: but it may be rendered tropically, (tropical:) if he hear the voice of the preacher. (Msb.) b3: Also He knew it: as in the saying, سَمِعَ اللّٰهُ قَوْلَكَ [God knew thy saying]. (Msb.) b4: Also (assumed tropical:) He accepted it; namely, evidence, and praise: or, said of the latter, (assumed tropical:) he recompensed it by acceptance: (Msb:) (tropical:) he paid regard to it, and answered it; namely, prayer: (tropical:) he answered, or assented to, or complied with, it; namely, a person's speech. (TA.)

(TA, as on the authority of IAmb.) b5: Also (assumed tropical:) He obeyed him: as in the saying in the Kur [xxxvi. 24], إِنِّى آمَنْتُ بِرَبِّكُمْ فَاسْمَعُونِ (assumed tropical:) [Verily I believe in your Lord, and do ye obey me]. (TA.) b6: Lth says that the phrase سَمِعَتْ أُذُنِى

زَيْدًا يَفْعَلُ كَذَا وَكَذَا means (assumed tropical:) My eye saw Zeyd doing such and such things: but Az says, I know not whence Lth brought this; for it is not of the way of the Arabs to say سمعت اذنى as meaning my eye saw: it is in my judgment corrupt language, and I am not sure but that it may have been originated by those addicted to innovations and erroneous opinions. (TA.) 2 تَسْمِيعٌ [inf. n of سمّع, as also تَسْمِعَةٌ, q. v. infrà, voce سُمْعَةٌ,] is syn. with ↓ إِسْمَاعٌ [The making one to hear]. (K.)

سَمْعٌ inf. n. of سَمِعَ, (S, Msb, K,) like ↓ سَمَاعٌ, (S, K,) [&c.,] or the latter is a simple subst. [used in the abstract sense of the former]. (Msb.) Yousay, سَمْعًا وَطَاعَةً, [for أَسْمَعُ سَمْعًا وَأُطِيعُ طَاعَةً, an emphatic mode of expression, meaning I hear and I obey, or for سَمِعْتُ سَمْعًا وَأَطَعْتُ طَاعَةً, which means the same, but more emphatically; طَاعَةً

being a quasi-inf. n. for إِطَاعَةً;] the verb [of each] being understood: and سَمْعٌ وَطَاعَةٌ, meaning أَمْرِى ذٰلِكَ [i. e. أَمْرِى سَمْعٌ وَطَاعَةٌ My affair is hearing and obeying]. (K.) You say also, [in like manner,] اَللّٰهُمَّ سَمْعًا لَا بَلْغًا, (K,) and سَمْعٌ لَا بَلْغٌ: (TA:) see سِمْعٌ. And سَمْعُ أُذُنِى فُلَانًا يَقُولَ ذٰلِكَ, (K,) [said to be] the only instance of the kind among inf. ns. of trans. verbs except رَأْىُ عَيْنِى, (TA in art. رأى,) [in a copy of the M, in art. رأى, written سَمْعَ اذنى and رَأْىَ عينى,] and اذنى ↓ سِمْعُ, and اذنى ↓ سَمْعَةُ, and اذنى ↓ سِمْعَةُ [My ear heard (lit. my ear's hearing) such a one say that]. (K) b2: [As a simple subst., it signifies] The sense of the ear; (K;) [i. e., of hearing;] the faculty in the ear whereby it perceives sounds. (TA.) Thus in the Kur [1. 36], أَوْ أَلْقَى

السَّمْعُ, (TA,) meaning, Or who hearkeneth. (Bd, Jel.) [And hence,] أُمُّ السَّمْعِ The brain; (Z, O, K;) as also ↓ أُمُّ السَّمِيعِ. (O, K.) One says, ضَرَبَهُ عَلَى أُمِّ السَّمْعِ [He struck him upon the brain]. (TA.) b3: [It is also used for the inf. n. of أَسْمَعَ. Hence] one says, قَالُوا ذٰلِكَ سَمْعَ أُذُنِى, and in like manner, اذنى ↓ سِمْعَ, and اذنى ↓ سَمَاعَ, and اذنى ↓ سَمَاعَةَ, i. e. إِسْمَاعَهَا [They said that making my ear to hear]: (K:) and one may say, سَمْعًا [making to hear]: this latter one says when he does not particularize himself. (Sb, K.) and ↓ كَلَّمَهُ سِمْعَهُمْ, with kesr, meaning, [He spoke to him making them to hear, or] so that they heard. (TA.) And a poet says, اللّٰهِ وَالعُلَمَآءِ أَنِّى ↓ سَمَاعَ

I have recourse for protection to thy maternal uncle; thus in the TA in art. حقو;] using the subst. in the place of the inf. n., as though he said إِسْمَاعًا عَنِّى. (TA.) One says also, أَخَذْتُ ذٰلِكَ عَنْهُ سَمْعًا, and in like manner, ↓ سَمَاعًا, [i. e. I received that from him by being made to hear, which virtually means, by hearsay, or hearing it from him,] making the inf. n. [in each case] to be of a different form from that of the verb to which it belongs [in respect of signification; i. e., using an inf. n. of سَمِعَ for that of أَسْمَعَ]. (K, * TA.) [See also سُمْعَةٌ.] b4: It also signifies The ear; (S, * Mgh, Msb, * K;) as also ↓ مِسْمَعٌ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) because it is the instrument of hearing, (TA,) and ↓ مَسْمَعٌ, [because it is the place thereof,] (Aboo-Jebeleh, TA,) and ↓ سَامِعَةٌ; (S, K;) or ↓ مِسْمَعٌ signifies the ear-hole; (TA;) and so ↓ مَسْمَعٌ, and ↓ مُسْتَمَعٌ: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and سَمْعٌ is also used as a pl., (S, K,) being originally an inf. n.; but sometimes (S) it has for its pl. أَسْمَاعٌ (S, Msb, K) and أَسْمُعٌ, (Mgh, O, K,) a pl. of pauc., (TA,) [as is also the former,] and أَسَامِعُ is a pl. pl., (S, Mgh, O, K,) i. e. pl. of أَسْمَاعٌ, (S,) or of أَسْمُعٌ: (Mgh, O:) [for an ex. of the pl. pl., see 2:] the pl. of ↓ مِسْمَعٌ is مَسَامِعُ; (Msb, K;) or this may be an irreg. pl. of سَمْعٌ, like as مَشَابِهُ is of شَبَهٌ. (Sgh, TA.) You say, سَمْعُكَ إِلَىَّ i. e. [Incline thine ear to me; or] hear thou from me. (S, K.) And طَرَقَ الكَلَامُ السَّمْعُ [The speech struck the ear].

One also says, ↓ فُلَانٌ عَظِيمُ المِسْمَعَيْنِ Such a one is great in the ears. (S.)

(K.) سَمَعْمَعٌ (of the measure فَعَلْعَلٌ, S) Small in the head, (S, K,) and in the body; for او اللِّحْيَةِ in the K is a mistranscription for وَالجُثَّةِ: (TA:) cunning, or very cunning: (K, TA:) light of flesh, quick in work, wicked, and clever: (TA:) or [simply] light and quick: and applied as an epithet to a wolf.
