A3: And غَزِلَ is also said of a dog, meaning He flagged, or became remiss, in the pursuit of a young gazelle; i. e., when he had come up to it, the latter uttered a cry by reason of its fright, whereupon he turned away from it, (S, O, K, TA,) and became diverted; (S, O, TA;) or, as IAar says, when it became sensible of the presence of the dog, it became confounded, or perplexed, and clave to the ground, and he (the dog) became diverted from it, and turned away: (TA:) or he was confounded, or perplexed, in pursuing a young gazelle, by its uttering a cry in his face when he came up to it.

(Th, K.) 4 اغزل, (K,) or اغزلــت, (S, O,) He, or she, turned round, or made to revolve, [or rather twirled,] the مِــغْزَل [or spindle]: (S, O, K:) [or so اغزل المــغزلَ, or اغزلــتهُ, for] one says of the مــغزل [or spindle], أُــغْزِلَ, i. e. it was turned round [or twirled]. (Fr, S.) b2: اغزلــت She (a gazelle) had a young one. (S, O. [See غَزَالٌ.]) 5 تــغزّل He affected, or attempted, as a selfimposed task, (تَكَلَّفَ,) what is termed غَزَل [meaning as expl. below, i. e. the talk, and actions, and circumstances, occurring between the lover and the object of love; &c.].

(TA in art. غنى.) 6 تغازلوا [They talked, and acted in an amatory and enticing manner; or they played, sported, dallied, or wantoned, and held amorous talk; one with another: see 3]: (S, O:) from الــغَزَلُ [q. v.]. (TA.) 8 إِغْتَزَلَ see 1, first sentence.

غَزْلٌ, applied to cotton, (S, O, K, TA,) and flax, &c., (TA,) or wool, and the like, (Msb,) i. q. مَغْزُولٌ [i. e. Spun]: (S, O, Msb, K, TA:) [or rather spun thread, or yarn of any kind; for] it is an inf. n. used as a subst.: (Msb:) of the masc. gender: pl. غُزُولٌ. (TA.) b2: And accord. to ISd, The web of the spider. (TA.) b3: and غَزْلُ النَبَاتِ is applied in Egypt to The sort of food called إِطْرِيَة. (TA in art. طرو, q. v.) غِزْلُ نِسَآءٍ A follower and lover of women; as also نِسَآءٍ ↓ غِزِّيلُ: (JK:) [or both may be rendered one who talks, and acts in an amatory and enticing manner; or who plays, sports, dallies, or wantons, and holds amorous talk; with women:] ↓ غِزِّيلٌ is of the measure فِعِّيلٌ in the sense of the measure مُفَاعِلٌ; like حِدِّيثٌ and كِلِّيمٌ. (TA.) غَزَلٌ, as expl. by 'Abd-El-Muttalib El-Baghdádee, in his Exposition of the نَقْدُ الشِعْرِ of Kudámeh, signifies The talk, and actions, and circumstances, occurring between the lover and the object of love; differing somewhat from تَشْبِيبٌ, which is a celebrating of the person and qualities of the beloved; and from نَسِيبٌ, which is a mentioning of the state, or condition, of the نَاسِب [himself], and of the object of the نَسِيب, and of all the affairs, or events, occurring between them two, [in the prelude of an ode,] thus including the meaning of تَشْبِيبٌ, and being a mentioning of غَزَل: accord. to Kudámeh, it signifies an inclining to foolish and youthful conduct, or a manifesting of passionate love, and becoming notorious for affections to women: (TA:) or it is the subst. from 3 [as such signifying talk, and amatory and enticing conduct, with women; or play, sport, dalliance, or wanton conduct, and amorous talk, with women]; (S, K;) as also ↓ مَــغْزَلٌ: (K:) or play, sport, or diversion, with women: (ISd, TA:) or the talk of young men and [or with] young women: (Msb:) or, accord. to the leading authorities in polite literature, and those who have made the language to be their study, [or rather accord. to a loose and post-classical usage,] it signifies, like نَسِيبٌ, praise of what are apparent of the menbers of the object of love: or the mention of the days of union and of disunion: or the like thereof. (MF.) غَزِلٌ [is, by, rule, the part. n. of غَزِلَ, as such signifying Talking, and acting in an amatory and enticing manner, with a woman, or with women; &c.: but it is said that it] signifies صَاحِبُ غَزَلٍ; (S, O;) or مُتَــغَزِّلٌ بِالنِّسَآءِ; (K, TA;) by which is here meant making mention, or speaking, or one who makes mention, or who speaks, [generally in verse,] of what is termed غَزَل [signifying as expl. above, i. e. the talk, and actions, and circumstances, occurring between the lover and the object of love; &c.]; thus used as being a possessive epithet, [not as a part. n. of غَزِلَ, because this differs in meaning from تَــغَزَّلَ,] i. e. it signifies [properly] ذُوغَزَلٍ: (TA:) or it means displaying amorous gestures or behaviour, and foolish and youthful conduct such as is suitable to women, with the love, or passionate love, that he experiences for them, in order that they may incline to him: (Kudámeh, TA:) or it is applied to a man as meaning a companion of women because of his lacking strength to be otherwise: from what here follows. (IAar, TA.) b2: Lacking strength, or ability, to perform, or accomplish, things; (IAar, K, TA;) remiss, or languid, in respect to them. (IAar, TA.) غَزُلِــىٌّ [Of, or relating to, spun thread, or yarn;] the rel. n. from غَزْلٌ used as a subst. (Msb.) غَزَالٌ A young gazelle, وَلَدُ ظَبْيَةٍ: (Msb:) or a شَادِن [or young gazelle], (T, S, O, Msb, K, TA,) or, as some say, the female, (TA, [but see what follows,]) when it becomes active, or in motion, (T, S, O, Msb, K, TA.) and walks; (T, Msb, K, TA;) to which the girl, or young woman, is likened in [the commencing of an ode by what is termed] التَّشْبِيب, wherefore the epithet and the verb [therein] are made mase.; (TA;) after the becoming a ثَنِىّ [q. v.]: (T, Msb:) or in the stage after that in which he is termed طَلًا [q. v.]: (AHát, Msb, TA:) or from the time of his birth until he attains to the most vehement running; (K, TA;) which is when he puts his legs together, [app. meaning his fore legs together and so his hind legs,] and puts them down together and raises them together: (TA:) or i. q. ظَبْىٌ [i. e. a gazelle, of any age]: (M in art. ظبى: for الظَّبْىُ is there expl. as meaning الغَزَالُ: [but this seems to be a loose rendering:]) the female is called ↓ غَزَالَةٌ; (Msb, MF, TA;) though it seems from what is said in the K [&c.] that الغَزَالُ is applied peculiarly to the male, and that the female is called only ظَبْيَةٌ, as several of the lexicologists have decisively asserted: (MF, TA:) the pl. [of pane.] is غِزْلَــةٌ and [of mult.] غِزْلــانٌ. (S, O, Msb, K.) A2: غَزَالُ شَعْبَانَ A certain insect (دُوَيْبَّةٌ), (K, TA,) a species of the [locusts, or locust-like insects, called]

جَنَادِب [pl. of جُنْدَبٌ]. (TA.) A3: دَمُ الغَزَالِ A certain plant, resembling the طَرْخُون [or tarragon], (O, K,) which is eaten, (O,) burning, or biting, to the tongue, (O, K,) green, and having a red root, like the roots of the أَرْطَاة [n. un. of أَرْطًى, q. v.], (O,) with the juice of which girls, or young women, make red streaks like bracelets upon their arms: (O, K:) thus AHn was informed by some one or more of the Benoo-Asad: (O:) and Aboo-Nasr says, it is of the [kind called] ذُكُور. [See also دَمُ الغَزَالِ and دَمُ الــغِزْلَــانِ and دُمْيَةُ الــغِزْلَــانِ voce دمٌ in art. دمو or دمى; and see likewise عَنْدَمٌ.]

غَزَالَةٌ fem. of غَزَالٌ, q. v.

A2: الغَزَالَةُ, also, signifies The sun; (S, O, K;) because it extends [what resemble] cords, [meaning its rays,] as though it were spinning: (K:) or the sun when rising; (Msb, K;) [therefore] one says طَلَعَتِ الغَزَالَةُ, but not غَرَبَتِ الغَزَالَةُ: (TA:) or the sun when high: (M, * K, TA:) or the عَيْن [meaning the disk, or, as it sometimes means, the rays, or beams,] of the sun. (K.) b2: And غَزَالَةُ الضُّحَى

means, (S, O, K,) as also غَزَالَاتُهُ, (K,) [or غَزَالَاتُهَا,] The beginning of the ضُحَى [or early part of the forenoon, after sunrise]; (S, O, K;) [whence] one says, جَآءَ فِى غَزَالَةِ الضُّحَى [He came in the beginning of the ضُحَى]; and Dhu-r-Rummeh uses الغَزَالَةَ, in the accus. case, as an adv. n., (S, O,) meaning in the time [or in the beginning] of the ضُحَى; (O;) or, accord. to IKh, this is for طُلُوعَ الغَزَالَةِ, meaning at the rising of the sun: (TA:) or the meaning of the phrases first mentioned in this sentence is after, or a little after, (accord. to different copies of the K,) the spreading of the son, [i. e. of the sunshine,] and its entrance upon the ضُحَى: or the first part of the ضُحَى, until the passing away of a fifth (or about a fifth, TA) of the day. (K.) A3: Also (i. e. الغَزَالَةُ) A certain herb, (Aboo-Nasr. O, K,) of the [kind called]

سُطَّاح, spreading upon the ground, with green leaves, having no thorns nor broaches; from the middle whereof comes forth a tall قَضِيب [or shoot], which is peeled and eaten, (Aboo-Nasr, O,) and it is sweet, (Aboo-Nasr, O, K,) and has yellow blossoms from its bottom to its top: and it is a pasture: (Aboo-Nasr, O:) every thing [i. e. animal] eats it: (Aboo-Nasr, O, K;) and the places of its growth are the plain, or soft, tracts. (Aboo-Nasr, O) غَزَّالٌ A vender [and a spinner] of غَزْل [i. e. thread,. or gave]. (TA.) غِزِّيلٌ; see غِزْلُ نِسَآءٍ, in two places.

غَازِلٌ [act. part. n. of غَزَلَ; Spinning]. The pls. غُزَّلٌ and غَوَازِلُ are applied as epithets to women: (K, TA:) but the former is also applied to men, and is of a measure more usual as that of the pl. of the mase. act. part. n. than of the fem. (TA.) أَــغْزَلُ مِنْ عَنْكَبُوتٍ, from the act of spinning, (Meyd,) or from the act of weaving [the web], (O.) is a prov. [meaning More practised, or skilled, in weaving than a spider]: and so مِنْ سُرْفَةٍ [than a سُرْفَة, q. v.]. (Meyd.) b2: And one says also, أَــغْزَلُ مِنِ امْرِئِ القَيْسِ, (S, Meyd, O,) likewise a prov., meaning [More practised, or skilled,] in the celebrating of the person and qualities of the beloved in verse [than Imra-el-Keys]. (Meyd.) b3: And [hence,] أَــغْزَلُ مِنَ الحُمَّى (assumed tropical:) [More frequent in visiting, or more habitual, and more recurrent, than the fever]; a saying of the Arabs, by which they mean that it [the fever] is a frequent visiter of the sick person, recurrent to him; as though passionately loving him: thus, correctly, as in the L: in the K it is said that الأَــغْزَلُ applied to the fever (الحُمَّى [though this is fem.]) means such as is a frequent visiter of the sick person; recurrent. (TA.) b4: And أَــغْزَلُ مِنْ فُرْعُلٍ [More confounded and perplexed than a young one of the hyena]; from الــغَزَلُ as signifying “ the being confounded and perplexed ” like as is the dog (Meyd, O, K) when pursuing the young gazelle; for it may be that the فرعل becomes in the like state in pursuing the object of its chase: (Meyd:) or فرعل was a man of ancient times, and this saying (which is a prov., Meyd) is like أَــغْزَلُ مِنِ امْرِئِ القَيْسِ. (Meyd, O, TA.) مَــغْزَلٌ: see مِــغْزَلٌ, in two places: A2: and see also غَزَلٌ, latter half.

مُــغْزَلٌ: see مِــغْزَلٌ, in three places.

مُــغْزِلٌ A doe gazelle having a young one. (K.) مِــغْزَلٌ and ↓ مُــغْزَلٌ (Fr, Th, S, O, Msb, K) and ↓ مَــغْزَلٌ, (Th, O, K,) the first as pronounced by [the tribe of] Temeem, the second as pronounced by [that of] Keys, and the last the most rare, (TA,) or the second as pronounced by Temeem, (Msb,) A spindle; i. e. the thing with which one spins: (S, MA, O, Msb, K. KL:) Fr says that ↓ مُــغْزَلٌ is the original form, from أُــغْزِلَ “ it was made to turn round ” or “ revolve ” [or “ was twirled ”]; (S, TA;) but the dammeh was deemed by the Arabs difficult of pronunciation, and therefore they said مِــغْزَلٌ, and in like manner مِصْحَفٌ and مِخْدَعٌ and مِجْسَدٌ and مِطْرَفٌ: accord. to IAth, مِــغْزَلٌ signifies the instrument [with which one spins]; and ↓ مَــغْزَلٌ, the place of the غَزْل [which means the act of spinning and the span thread or yard]; and ↓ مُــغْزَلٌ, the place in which (فِيهِ [or this may here mean upon which]) the غَزْل [i. e. spun thread or yarn] is put: (TA:) pl. مَغَازِلُ. (MA.) أَعْرى مِنْ مِــغْزَلٍ is a prov. [meaning More naked than a spindle]. (Meyd.) And one says, صَاحِبُ الــغَزَلِ أَضَلُّ مِنْ سَاقِ مِــغْزَلٍ

[The practiser of the talk and actions &c. usual between the lover and the object of love is more erring than the shank (i. e. pin) of a spindle), of which the error is its [aiding in] clothing mankind while it is [itself] naked. (A, TA.) b2: It is said in a book of certain of the Jews, عَلَيْكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَرُبْعُ المِــغْزَلِ, meaning [I pon you lie as due from you such and such things and) the fourth part of what your women have spun. (TA.) b3: And [the pl.] مَغَازِلُ signifies The عَمَد (O) or عُمُد (K) [app. meaning the upright wooden supports of the seat] of the [machine called] نَوْرَج [q. v.] with which the reaped grain heaped together is thrashed. (O, K.) مِــغْزَلِــىٌّ (MA) and ↓ مَغَازِلِىٌّ (S and K voce مِصْرَمٌ) A parer of spindles. (MA.) مُغَيْزِلٌ A slender cord (حَبْلٌ دَقِيقٌ) [so in copies of the K, and in the CK, but in the latter المُغْتَزَلُ is put for المُغَيْزِلُ: in my MS. copy of the K, المُغَيْزِلُ جَبَلٌ دَقِيقٌ, and this I think to be the correct reading. meaning El-Mugheyzil is a certain slender mountain]: ISd says, I think it to be likened to the مِــغْزَل, because of its slenderness; adding that El-Hirmázee has mentioned it. (TA. [A verse cited by El-Hirmázee is there given as an ex.; mentioning the day of المُغَيْزِل, app. as the day of the separation of a lover from his beloved; and it is a common custom of the Arabs to call the day of an event the day of the place where it occurred.]) مَغَازِلِىٌّ: see مِــغْزَلِــىٌّ.

(S, M, K. [In the TA is added, and اردنة; as though another pl. were أَرْدِنَةٌ: but I think that this is a mistake, originating in a copy of the M; for, immediately after أَرْدَانٌ, in the M, is added, وَأَرْدَنَهُ جَعَلَ لَهُ أَرْدَانًا; and I suspect that in some copy thereof, واردنه has been inadvertently written twice.]) You say قَمِيصٌ وَاسِعُ الرُّدْنِ [A shirt wide in the ردن]. (S.) b2: [Hence,] one says, هُوَ دَنِسُ الأَرْدَانِ (tropical:) [meaning He is foul in character, conduct, or the like; for it is tropical]. (A in art. دنس.

(S, TA.) b4: See also رَادِنٌ.

رُمْحٌ رُدَيْنِىٌّ [meaning A well-straightened spear; lit. a spear of Rudeyneh]: and قَنَاةٌ رُدَيْنِيَّةٌ [the same, or a well-straightened spear-shaft]: (S:) and رِمَاحٌ رُدَيْنِيَّةٌ [well-straightened spears]: (M:) accord. to their [the Arabs'] assertion, (S,) so called in relation to a woman named Rudeyneh, (S, M,) wife of Es-Semharee [or Semhar]; both of whom used to straighten spears, or spear-shafts, in Khatt-Hejer: and some say ↓ خَطِّيَّةٌ رُدْنٌ [wellstraightened spears of El-Khatt], and رِمَاحٌ رُدْنٌ. (S.) [See an ex. in a verse cited in art. ذوق, 6th conj.]

رَادِنٌ Saffron; (S, K;) as also ↓ رَدَنٌ. (Sgh, TA in art. شعر.) أَحْمَرُ رَادِنِىٌّ A camel, (As, T,) or a thing, (S,) of which the redness is mixed with yellowness, (As, T, S, K,) like وَرْس [q. v.]: (As, T:) hence the epithet رَادِنِىٌّ is applied to a he-camel, (S, TA,) and with ة to a she-camel: (As, T, S:) or رَادِنِىٌّ is applied to a he-camel as meaning having crisp, or curly, fur, of generous race, (Lth, T, M,) beautiful, (Lth, T,) and inclining a little to blackness: (Lth, T, M:) or intensely red; (TA, and Ham p. 218;) or it has this meaning also: (M:) or between yellow and red: accord. to some, from رَادِنٌ signifying “ saffron; ” (Ham ubi suprà;) but As says, I know not in relation to what thing the camel is called by this epithet. (M.) They said also أَرْمَكُ رَادِنِىٌّ [i. e. Intensely dun or brown or dusky &c.]; to denote intensiveness; like as they said أَبْيَضُ نَاصِعٌ. (IAar, M.) أَرْدَنُ [or خَزٌّ أَرْدَنُ] A sort of [cloth of the kind termed] خَزّ, (S, K,) red: (S:) [pl. رُدْنٌ:] and [hence] ثِيَابٌ رُدْنٌ Red garments or cloths. (So in one of my copies of the S.) أُرْدُنٌ, (ISK, T, S, M, and so in some copies of the K,) in some of the copies of the K erroneously said to be with the ر musheddedeh, (TA,) [in the CK with the د, which is also a mistake,] A drowsiness, or dozing: (S, K:) or an overpowering drowsiness or dozing: a poet uses the phrase نَعْسَةٌ أُرْدُنٌّ: (ISk, T:) or this means an intense drowsiness or dozing: (M:) Yákoot says that it appears to signify intenseness and an overpowering, because there is no meaning in one's saying نَعْسَةٌ نَعْسَةٌ. (TA.) It is a word of which no verb has been heard. (S.) Hence, accord. to ISK, الأُرْدُنُّ as the name of a certain province; (T;) a province of Syria, (S, K,) and a river thereof [i. e. the Jordan]; (S;) also without teshdeed. (TA.) مُرْدِنٌ Dark; (S, M, K;) applied to night. (M.) b2: Also, applied to sweat, Stinking: (K:) or, thus applied, that wets all the skin: (M:) [or] ↓ مَرْدُونٌ has the latter meaning, thus applied. (T.) مِرْدَنٌ A spindle (S, M, K) with which [the thread termed] رَدَن is spun: (M, TA:) pl. مَرَادِنُ. (TA.) مَرْدُونٌ is applied as an epithet to غَزْل [i. e. spun thread, meaning Spun with the مِرْدَن: see also رَدَنٌ]. (M.) b2: Also to a garment, or piece of cloth, (M,) meaning Woven (Sh, T, M) with spun thread that is مَرْدُون. (M.) Aboo-Duwád El-Iyádee says, أَسْأَدَتْ لَيْلَةً وَيَوْمًا فَلَمَّا دَخَلَتْ فِى مُسَرْبَخٍ مَرْدُونِ [She (app. referring to a camel) hastened in her journey, or journeyed on without stopping to rest, a night and a day; and when she entered a desert, or waterless desert, far-extending, wide, or spacious, woven with the mirage, or overspread by a rippling mirage resembling a web: or they (i. e. camels) hastened &c.]: Sh says that مَرْدُون signifies woven: and the poet means, by مسربخ مردون, a tract of land in which was the mirage: (T:) or مردون here means woven with the mirage: (TA in art. سربخ:) or, as some say, by مردون he means مَرْدُوم, [app. as signifying conjoined, so as to be uninterrupted, (see رَدَمَ,)] and has changed the م into ن; and مسربخ means wide, or spacious: (T:) or مردون signifies مَوْصُول [which has the meaning that I have assigned above to مردوم]: (T, K:) so some say. (T.) b3: See also مُرْدِنٌ.

A more general name of this kind should precede a more particular one: thus you say القُرَشِىُّ الهَاشِمِىُّ: and it is better that a name of relation to a tribe should precede one of relation to a town or the like: thus you say القُرَشِىُّ المَكِّىُّ.

(Mgh, TA.) b4: اذرع also signifies He seized with the fore arm. (K.) b5: مَا أَذْرَعَهَا [How long, or large, is she in the fore arm!] is [from الذِّرَاعُ, being] of the same [anomalous] class as أَحْنَكُ الشَّاتَيْنِ [from الحَنَكُ]. (TA.)

(TA.) b4: Also, The splitting (تَشَقُّق [which is intrans., but I think it is a mistake for تَشْقِيق, which is trans.,]) of a thing into several oblong pieces of the measure of the cubit in length. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) b5: تَذَرَّعَتِ المَرْأَةُ The woman split palm-leaves to make of them a mat. (IDrd, K.) Thus some explain the saying of Ibn-El-Khateem, quoted above.

(Ibn-'Abbád, K.) ذَرْعٌ, in its primary acceptation, has the signification explained in the first sentence of this article. (S, TA.) b2: [Hence, it is used in the sense of] (tropical:) Power, or ability; as also ↓ ذِرَاعٌ; (TA;) or a man's reach, or extent of power or ability. (Msb.) And hence the phrases, ضَاقَ بِالأَمْرِ ذَرْعُهُ, and ↓ ذِرَاعُهُ, (K,) and ضَاقَ بِالأَمْرِ ذَرْعًا, (S, Msb, K,) in which the last word is in the accus. case as an explicative, for the original form of the phrase is that first mentioned, (TA,) and sometimes they said ↓ ذِرَاعًا, (S, TA,) (tropical:) He was unable to do, or accomplish, the thing, or affair; as though meaning, he stretched forth his arm to it and it did not reach it; (S, TA; *) or these phrases are thus used because he who is short in the fore arm will not reach that which he who is long therein reaches, nor will the power of the former equal that of the latter; therefore they are proverbially applied to him whose power falls short of the attainment, or accomplishment, of an affair: (TA:) or he lacked strength, or power, or ability, to do, or accomplish, the thing, or affair, and found not any way of escape from what was disagreeable therein: (K:) or he was unable to bear, or endure, or undertake, the thing, or affair. (Msb.) You say also, مَا لِى بِهِ ذَرْعٌ, and ↓ ذِرَاعٌ, (tropical:) I have not power, or ability, to do it. (TA.)

(TA.) And أَبْطَرْتُ فُلَانًا ذَرْعهُ (tropical:) I imposed upon such a one more than he was able to do: (S, TA:) but ذَرْعٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) the body: and [accord. to IAar] أَبَطَرَنِى ذَرْعِى means (tropical:) He wasted my body, and cut off my means of subsistence. (TA.) [See also art. بطر.] You likewise say, رَجُلٌ

↓ رَحْبُ الذِّرَاعِ [and الذَّرْعِ] (tropical:) A man having ample strength, and power, and might in war or fight, courage, valour, or prowess. (TA. [See also رَحْبٌ.]) And ضَعِيفُ الذَّرْعِ (tropical:) Impotent. (KL.) b3: And hence, فُلَانٌ خَالِى الذَّرْعِ (tropical:) Such a one has his heart devoid of anxieties, or solicitudes, and griefs; because the heart is sometimes one of the seats of power: or it may mean, agreeably with the original signification of ذَرْعٌ, such a one is free from the causes of occupation which require the stretching forth of the fore arm and extending of the hand. (Har p. 131.) and رَجُلٌ وَاسِعٌ الذَّرْعِ, and ↓ الذِّرَاعِ, (tropical:) A man large, or liberal, in disposition. (K.) And كَبُرَ فِى ذَرْعِى (assumed tropical:) Its occurrence, or befalling, was of great moment, momentous, grievous, or distressing, to me.

(TA.) ذِرَاعٌ, of a man, (Msb,) [The part] from the elbow to the extremities of the fingers; (Mgh, Msb;) the fore arm; syn. سَاعِدٌ [q. v.; thus corresponding to the سَاق of the leg]: (Lth, K:) and (tropical:) [the space] from the extremity of the elbow to the extremity of the middle finger: (M, Mgh, * K: [in the last of which, the space is plainly shown to be meant, like as the part is shown in the Msb to be meant in the explanation cited above from that work and the Mgh: see also جَرِيبٌ:]) in both these senses, sometimes masc., (K,) accord. to Kh: (TA:) J says, (TA,) as relating to the arm, it is masc. and fem.; but Sb says that it is fem.: (S, TA:) [Mtr says,] it is fem.: (Mgh:) [Fei says,] the measure so called is in most instances fem.: accord. to ISk, it is fem.; but some of the Arabs make it masc.: Fr says that it is fem.; but that some of [the tribe named] 'Okl make it masc.: As did not know an instance of its being masc.: and Zj says that such an instance is extr.; not choice: (Msb:) the measure thus called, [i. e. the cubit,] (Msb,) the ذِرَاعٌ مُكَسَّرَة [or cubit which is divided into fractions], (Mgh,) is six قَبَضَات [or fists] (Mgh, Msb) of middling measure; (Msb;) and this is called ذِرَاعُ العَمَامَّةِ [the cubit of the common people, or the common cubit], because it wants one قَبْضَة [or fist] of what is called ذِرَاعُ المَلِكِ [the cubit of the king], namely one of the Kisràs, (Mgh, Msb,) not the last of them, whose ذراع was seven قَبَضَات: (Mgh:) [see also مِيلٌ: it is also an astronomical measure; and as such, it seems, from several instances in which it is mentioned by Kzw and other writers, to be, probably, by rule, two degrees; nearly the half, or quarter, of the length assigned in different instances to the measure termed رُمْحٌ; but, like the latter, not precise nor uniform in every instance:] the dim. is ↓ ذُرِيَّعَةٌ, with ة because it is fem.; (TA;) or ↓ ذُرَيْعٌ [or ↓ ذُرَيِّعٌ, without ة, accord. to those who make it masc.]: (L voce حَرْبٌ:) the pl. is أَذْرُعٌ and ذُرْعَانٌ; (O, Msb, K;) or, accord. to Sb, the former only; (S, Msb;) and Sb adds, they have given it this form of pl. because it is fem.; meaning, that فِعَالٌ and فُعَالٌ and فَعِيلٌ, when fem., have the pl. of the measure أَفْعُلٌ. (TA.) In the phrase الثَّوْبُ سَبْعٌ فِى ثَمَانِيَةٍ [The garment, or piece of cloth, is seven cubits by eight spans], they say سبع because أَذْرُع is fem., and ثمانية because أَشْبَار is masc.; (S; [and the like is said in the Mgh;]) and because the length is measured by the ذراع, and the breadth by the شِبْر. (S in art. ثمن.) ذِرَاعٌ is also used as an epithet, applied to a masc. n.: thus they say, هٰذَا ثَوْبٌ ذِرَاعٌ [This is a garment, or piece of cloth, a cubit in length]. (Kh.) You say also, هُوَ مِنِّى عَلَى حَبْلِ الذِّرَاعِ It is prepared, or made ready, on my part: (S:) and هُوَ لَكَ عَلَى حَبْلِ الذِّرَاعِ I will pay it to thee in ready money: or it is prepared, or made ready, for thee: the حبل being a certain vein in the ذراع. (TA.) b2: [Hence several tropical significations:] see ذَرْعٌ, in six places: and see also ذَرَاعٌ. b3: Hence also, (Z, TA,) (tropical:) The instrument with which one measures the length of the ذراع [or cubit], (S, Z, O, Mgh, K,) made of a piece of wood, (Mgh,) or whether it be iron or a rod of wood.

Hence the prov.] لَا تُطْعِمِ العَبْدَ الكُرَاعَ فَيَطْمَعَ فِى الذِّرَاعِ [Feed not thou the slave with the shank, lest he covet the arm].

but the latter accord. to those who make it to signify “ the auroral setting,” is the Seventh Mansion of the Moon: the following descriptions in Kzw's account of the Mansions of the Moon, and in the O and K and TA, are obscure and inaccurate:] الذِّرَاعُ is one of the Mansions of the Moon, (O, Kzw, K,) and is called ذراع الاسد المقبوضة, (O, Kzw,) or ذراع الاسد المبسوطة: (K:) the lion has a ذراع which is مبسوطة and a ذراع which is مقبوضة, (O, Kzw, K,) and this is the one next to Syria, (O, K,) or on the left, (Kzw,) and in it the moon has a mansion; the مبسوطة being next to El-Yemen, (O, K,) or on the right; (Kzw;) [but this description of their relative positions should be reversed, as is shown by what precedes and by what follows;] each being two stars, between which is the measure of a سَوْط [or whip]; (O;) and the latter is higher in the sky, and more extended, than the other, (O, K,) wherefore it is called مبسوطة; (O;) and sometimes the moon deviates, and so has a mansion in it: (O, K:) [it is said in the TA that الذراع is also a name of one of the asterisms (نُجُوم) of الجَوْزَآء; but this is the same that is called the مبسوطة:] it rises [at dawn] on the fourth of تَمُّوز [or July O.

S.]: (O, Kzw: [and so in the K, except that in this last, it is erroneously said to set in كَانُون الأَوَّل:]) so says IKt: but Ibráheem El-Harbee says that it rises on the seventh of تمّوز, and sets on the sixth of كانون الآخر. (O, TA.) [See مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل; and see also نَوْءٌ, and نَكْبَآءُ.] The rhyming prosaist of the Arabs says, إِذَا طَلَعَتِ الذِّرَاعْ حَسَرَتِ الشَّمْسُ القِنَاعْ وَاسْتَعْلَتْ فِى الأُفُقِ الشُّعَاعْ وَ تَرَقْرَقَ السَّرَابُ فِى

And شَكَلْتُ عَنِ البَعِيرِ I bound the camel's شِكَال between the fore girth and the hind girth; (S;) [i. e.] I put [or extended], between the hind girth and the fore girth of the camel, a cord, or string, called شِكَال, and then bound it, in order that the hind girth might not become [too] near to the sheath of the penis. (TA in art. حقب.) b2: And [hence, i. e.] from the شِكَال of the beast, (TA,) شَكَلَ الكِتَابَ, (AHát, S, Msb, K, TA,) inf. n. as above, (Msb, TA,) (tropical:) He restricted [the meaning or pronunciation of] the writing, (قَيَّدَهُ, AHát, S, TA,) or he marked the writing, (أَعْلَمَهُ, Msb,) with the signs of the desinential syntax (AHát, * S, * Msb, TA *) [and the other syllabical signs and the diacritical points]: or i. q. أَعْجَمَهُ: (K:) but AHát says that شَكَلَ الكِتَابَ has the former meaning; and أَعْجَمَهُ signifies he dotted, or pointed, it [with the diacritical points]: (TA:) and الكِتَابَ ↓ اشكل signifies the same as شَكَلَهُ; (S, Msb, K, TA;) as though [meaning] he removed from it dubiousness and confusion; (S, K, * TA;) so that the أ in this case is to denote privation: (TA:) this [J says (TA)] I have transcribed from a book, without having heard it.

(TA.) b2: See also شَكَلٌ below, in two places. b3: and شَكِلْتُ إِلَى كَذَا, with kesr [to the ك], i. q. رَكَنْتُ [i. e. I inclined to such a thing; or trusted to, or relied upon, it, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind]. (O.) 2 شكّل, as an intrans. verb: see 4: b2: and see also 5.

(TA.) You say, هُوَ يُشَاكِلُهُ [He, or it, is conformable, &c., with him, or it; or resembles him, or it]. (Msb.)

[meaning It, or he, was, or became, such as had a likeness or resemblance, or a like, or match, &c.]. (TA.) b2: [And hence, app.,] said of a thing, or case, or an affair; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ شَكَلَ, (O, K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, شَكِلَ, evidently not meant by the author of the K, as it is his rule, after mentioning a verb of this form, to add كَفَرِحَ or the like,]) inf. n. شَكْلٌ; (TA;) and ↓ شكّل, (K,) inf. n. تَشْكِيلٌ; (TA;) (assumed tropical:) It was, or became, dubious, or confused; syn. اِلْتَبَسَ, (S, O, Msb, K,) and اِخْتَلَطَ, (O, TA,) or اِشْتَبَهَ: (Mgh:) [and ↓ اشتكل is mentioned in this sense by Golius as on the authority of J (whom I do not find to have mentioned it either in this art. or elsewhere), and by Freytag as on the authority of Abu-l-'Alà: accord. to Sh, اشكل in this sense is from شُكْلَةٌ signifying “ redness mixed with whiteness: ” (see مُشْكِلٌ:) but] accord. to Er-Rághib, إِشْكَالٌ in a thing, or case, or an affair, is metaphorical, [and] like اِشْتِبَاهٌ from الشِبْهُ. (TA.) One says, اشكل الأَمْرُ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ (assumed tropical:) [The thing, or case, or affair, was, or became, dubious, or confused, to the man]; and ↓ شَكَلَ means the same. (Zj, O.) And أَشْكَلَتْ عَلَىَّ الأَخْبَارُ (assumed tropical:) [The tidings were dubious, or confused, to me], and أَحْكَلَتْ; both meaning the same. (TA.) and one says also, عَلَيْهِ إِشْكَالٌ and عليه إِشْكَالَاتٌ [meaning There is doubt, or uncertainty, and there are doubts, or uncertainties, respecting it: thus using the inf. n. as a simple subst., and therefore pluralizing it]. (Mz, 3rd نوع; &c.) b3: It is also said of a disease; [app. as meaning (assumed tropical:) It became nearly cured; because still in a somewhat doubtful state;] like as you say تَمَاثَلَ; and so ↓ شَكَلَ. (TA.) b4: اشكل النَّخْلُ The palm-trees became in that state in which their dates were sweet (Ks, S, A, O, K) and ripe, (Ks, S, O, Msb,) or nearly ripe; (A, TA;) and ↓ تشكّل signifies the same.

شَكْلٌ i. q. شَبَةٌ [as meaning A likeness, resemblance, or semblance; a well-known signification of the latter word, but one which I do not find unequivocally assigned to it in its proper art. in any of the lexicons]. (AA, K, TA. [In the CK, and in my MS. copy of the K, in the place of الشَّبَهُ as the first explanation of الشَّكْلُ in the K accord. to the TA, we find الشِّبْهُ; but that the explanation which I have given is correct, is shown by what here follows.]) One says, فِى فُلَانٍ شَكْلٌ مِنْ أَبِيهِ, meaning شَبَهٌ [i. e. In such a one is a likeness, or resemblance, of his father]: (AA, TA:) and مِنْ أَبِيهِ ↓ فِيهِ أَشْكَلَةٌ and ↓ شُكْلَةٌ (AA, O, K, TA) and ↓ شَاكِلٌ, (O, K, TA,) [likewise] meaning شَبَهٌ, (AA, O, K, TA,) and مُشَابَهَةٌ: (TK:) and ↓ شَاكِلَةٌ also is syn. with شَكْلٌ [in the sense of شَبَهٌ]; (K, TA;) [for] one says, هٰذَا عَلَى شَاكِلَةِ

أَبِيهِ as meaning شَبَهِهِ [i. e. This is accordant to the likeness of his father]. (TA.) b2: And I. q.

مِثَالٌ: you say, هٰذَا عَلَى شَكْلِ هٰذَا, meaning على مِثَالِهِ [i. e. This is according to the model, or pattern, or the mode, or manner, of this]. (TA.) b3: And The shape, form, or figure, (صُورَة,) of a thing; such as is perceived by the senses; and such as is imagined: (K:) the form (هَيْئَة), of a body, caused by the entire contents' being included by one boundary, as in the case of a sphere; or by several boundaries, as in those bodies that have several angles or sides, such as have four and such as have six [&c.]: so says Ibn-El-Kemál: (TA:) pl. [of pauc., in this and in other senses,] أَشْكَالٌ and [of mult.] شُكُولٌ. (K.) b4: [It often means A kind, sort, or variety, of animals, plants, food, &c.] b5: [And The likeness, or the way or manner, of the actions of a person:] it is said in a trad. respecting the description of the Prophet, سَأَلْتُ

أَبِى عَنْ شَكْلِهِ, meaning [I asked my father respecting the likeness of his actions, or] respecting what was like his actions; accord. to IAmb: or, accord. to Az, respecting his particular way, course, mode, or manner, of acting, or conduct: (O:) and ↓ شَاكِلَةٌ [likewise, and more commonly,] signifies a particular way, course, mode, or manner, of acting, or conduct; (S, O, K, TA;) as in the saying, كُلٌّ يَعْمَلُ عَلَى شَاكِلَتِهِ, (S, O, TA,) in the Kur [xvii. 86], (O, TA,) i. e. Every one does according to his particular way, &c., (Ibn-'Arafeh, S, O, Bd, Jel, TA,) that is suitable to his state in respect of right direction and of error, or to the essential nature of his soul, and to his circumstances that are consequent to the constitution, or temperament, of his body: (Bd:) and according to his nature, or natural disposition, (Ibn-'Arafeh, Er-Rághib, O, TA,) by which he is restricted [as with a شِكَال]: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and his direction towards which he would go: (Akh, S, O, K, * TA:) and his side [that he takes]: (Katádeh, O, K, * TA:) and his aim, intention, or purpose: (Katádeh, O, K, TA:) and شَكْلٌ [likewise] signifies aim, intention, or purpose; syn. قَصْدٌ.

(TA.) [And hence, app.,] one says, مَاشَكْلِى وَشَكْلُهُ, meaning What is my case and [what is] his, or its, case? because of his, or its, remoteness from me. (T and TA voce أُمٌّ.) b7: And sing. of أَشْكَالٌ (L, K, TA) signifying Discordant affairs and objects of want, concerning things on account of which one imposes upon himself difficulty and for which one is anxious: (Lth, TA:) and dubious, or confused, affairs: (TA:) or discordant, and dubious, or confused, affairs. (K.

(S, O, Msb, K. *) One says, هٰذَا شَكْلُ هٰذَا This is the like of this. (Msb.) And فُلَانٌ شَكْلُ فُلَانٍ Such a one is the like of such a one in his several states or conditions [&c.]. (TA.) In the saying in the Kur [xxxviii. 58], وَآخَرُ مِنْ شَكْلِهِ, (O, TA,) meaning And other punishment of the like thereof, (Zj, TA,) Mujáhid read ↓ من شِكْلِهِ. (O, TA.)

A2: Also A want; syn. حَاجَةٌ; and so ↓ أَشْكَلَةٌ, (S, O, K, [both of these words twice mentioned in this sense in the K,]) and ↓ شَوْكَلَآءُ; this last and the second on the authority of IAar; (O;) accord. to Er-Rághib, such as binds, or shackles, (تُقَيِّد,) a man [as though with a شِكَال]. (TA.) One says, ↓ لَنَا قِبَلَكَ أَشْكَلَةٌ [&c.] i. e. حَاجَةٌ [We have a want to be supplied to us on thy part; meaning we want a thing of thee]. (S, O.) A3: Also i. q. مُدَاهَنَةٌ. (So in the O and TA. [But whether by this explanation be meant the inf. n., or the fem. pass. part. n., of دَاهَنَ, is not indicated. Words of the measure فَعْلَآءُ having the meaning of an inf. n., like بَغْضَآءُ, are rare.]) شِكَالٌ, of which the pl. is شُكُلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,) the latter also pronounced شُكْلٌ, (TA,) i. q. عِقَالٌ [A cord, or rope, with which a camel's fore shank and arm are bound together]: (S, O:) [or, accord. to the TA, by عقال is here meant what next follows:] a rope with which the legs of a beast (دَابَّة) are bound: (K:) a bond that is attached upon the fore and hind foot [or feet] of a horse [or the like] and of a camel: (KL:) [hobbles for a horse or the like, having a rope extending from the shackles of the fore feet to those of the hind feet: so accord. to present usage; and so accord. to the TK, in Turkish كوستك: Fei says only,] the شِكَال of the beast (دابّة) is well known; and the pl. is as above. (Msb.) In relation to the [camel's saddle called]

رَحْل, (K, TA,) accord. to As, (S, O, TA,) A string, or cord, that is put [or extended and tied] between the تَصْدِير [or fore girth] and the حَقَب [or hind girth], (S, O, K, TA,) in order that the latter may not become [too] near to the sheath of the penis; also called the زِوَار, on the authority of AA: (S, O, TA:) and [in relation to the saddle called قَتَب,] a bond [in like manner extended and tied, for the same purpose,] between the حَقَب [or hind girth] and the بِطَان [by which is meant the fore girth, answering to the تَصْدِير of the رَحْل]: and a bond [probably meaning the rope men-tioned in the explanation given from the K in the preceding sentence] between the fore leg and the hind leg. (K, TA.) b2: Also, in a horse, (tropical:) The quality of having three legs distinguished by [the whiteness of the lower parts which is termed]

تَحْجِيل, and one leg free therefrom; (S, O, K, TA;) [this whiteness] being likened to the عِقَال termed شِكَال: (S, O:) or having three legs free from تَحْجِيل, and one hind leg distinguished thereby: (S, O, K, * TA: *) accord. to A'Obeyd, it is only in the hind leg; not in the fore leg: (S, O:) or, accord. to AO, (TA,) having the whiteness of the تَحْجِيل in one hind leg and fore leg, on the opposite sides, (Mgh, * TA,) whether the whiteness be little or much: (TA:) [when this is the case, the horse is said to be ذُو شِكَالٍ مِنْ خِلَافٍ: see 3 (last sentence) in art. خلف:] the Prophet disliked what is thus termed in horses. (O.) شَكِيلٌ (tropical:) Foam mixed with blood, appearing upon the bit-mouth, or mouth-piece of the bit. (Z, O, K, TA.) شَاكِلٌ: see شَكْلٌ, first signification. b2: Also A whiteness between the عِذَار [which see, for it has various meanings,] and the ear. (Ktr, S, O. [See also شَاكِلَةٌ.]) شَوْكَلٌ: see شَوْكَلَةٌ. b2: One says, اِجْعَلِ الأَمْرَ شَوْكَلًا وَاحِدًا, meaning Make thou the affair, or case, [uniform, or] one uniform thing. (Fr, TA in art. بأج.) شَاكِلَةٌ: see شَكْلٌ, former half, in two places.

A2: الشَّاكِلَةُ, also, signifies The flank; syn. الخَاصِرَةُ, i. e. الطَّفْطَفَةُ: (S, O:) [or,] in a horse, the skin that is between the side (عُرْض) of the خَاصِرَة and the ثَفِنَة, (K, TA,) which latter means [the stifle-joint, i. e.] the joint of the فَخِذ and سَاق: or as some say, the شَاكِلَتَانِ are the two exterior parts of the طَفْطَفَتَانِ [or two flanks] from the place to which the last of the ribs reaches to the edge of [the hip-bone called] the حَرْقَفَة on each side of the belly. (TA.) One says, أَصَابَ شَاكِلَةَ الرَّمِيَّةِ, meaning [He hit] the خَاصِرَة [or flank] of the رميّة [or animal shot at]. (TA.) [Hence,] one says, أَصَابَ شَاكِلَةَ الصَّوَابِ (tropical:) [He hit the point that he aimed at, of the thing that was right]: and هُوَ يَرْمِى بِرَأْيِهِ الشَّوَاكِلَ (tropical:) [He hits, by his opinion, or judgment, the right points]. (TA.) Ibn-'Abbád says that [the pl.]

شَوَاكِلُ signifies [also] The hind legs; because they are shackled [with the شِكَال]. (O.) b2: Also The part between the ear and the temple. (IAar, K, TA.) b3: And شَوَاكِلُ (which is the pl. of شَاكِلَةٌ, TA) (assumed tropical:) Roads branching off from a main road. (K.) You say طَرِيقٌ ذُو شَوَاكِلَ (assumed tropical:) A road having many roads branching off from it. (O.) b4: And شَاكِلَتَا الطَّرِيقِ means (tropical:) The two sides of the road: you say طَرِيقٌ ظَاهِرُ الشَّوَاكِلِ (tropical:) [A road of which the sides are apparent, or conspicuous]. (TA.) شَوْكَلَةٌ, (so in the O, as on the authority of IAar,) or ↓ شَوْكَلٌ, (so in the K,) thus says EzZejjájee, but Fr says the former, [like IAar,] (TA,) i. q. رَجَّالَةٌ [as meaning The footmen of an army or the like]: (Fr, IAar, Ez-Zejjájee, O, K, TA:) or مَيْمَنَةٌ [meaning the right wing of an army]: or مَيْسَرَةٌ [meaning the left wing thereof]. (Ez-Zejjájee, K, TA.) b2: And i. q. نَاحِيْةٌ [probably as meaning The side, region, quarter, or direction, towards which one goes; like شَاكِلَةٌ, as expl. by Akh and others, in a saying mentioned voce شَكْلٌ]. (IAar, O, K.) A2: Also i. q. عَوْسَجَةٌ [i. e. A tree of the species called عَوْسَج, q. v.]. (IAar, O, K.) شَوْكَلَآءُ: see شَكْلَآءُ, above.

أَشْكَلُ More, and most, like; syn. أَشْبَةُ: so in the saying, هٰذَا أَشْكَلُ بِكَذَا [This is more, or most, like to such a thing]. (S, K. *) b2: Also Of a colour in which whiteness and redness are intermixed; (S, Msb, K;) applied to blood; and, accord. to IDrd, a name for blood, because of the redness and whiteness intermixed therein; (S;) [and] applied to a man; (Msb;) or to anything: (TA:) or in which is whiteness inclining to redness and duskiness: (K:) or it signifies, with the Arabs, [of] two colours intermixed. (TA.) [Hence,] it is applied to water, (K, TA,) as meaning (tropical:) Mixed with blood: (TA: [see an ex. in a verse cited voce حَتَّى:]) pl. شُكْلٌ. (K.) And the fem., شَكْلَآءُ, is applied as an epithet to an eye, (S, K,) meaning Having in it what is termed شُكْلَةٌ, which is the like of a redness in the white thereof; like شُهْلَةٌ in the black: (S:) pl. as above. (K.) A man is said to be أَشْكَلُ العَيْنِ, meaning Having a redness, (Mgh,) or the like of a redness, (O,) in the white of the eye: (Mgh, O:) the Prophet is said to have been أَشْكَلُ العَيْنِ: and it has been expl. as meaning long in the slit of the eye: (K:) but ISd says that this is extraordinary; and MF, that the leading authorities on the trads. consentaneously assert it to be a pure mistake, and inapplicable to the Prophet, even if lexicologically correct. (TA.) b3: Applied to a camel, (K, TA,) and to a sheep or goat, (TA,) of which the blackness is mixed with redness, (K, TA,) or with dust-colour; as though its colour were dubious to thee: (TA:) pl. as above, applied to rams &c., (K, TA,) in this sense. (TA.) b4: Applied to a sheep or goat, White in the شَاكِلَة [or flank]: (S, O:) fem.

شَكْلَآءُ; (S;) applied to a ewe, as meaning white in the شَاكِلَة, (K, TA,) the rest of her being black. (TA.) A2: Also The mountain-species of سِدْر [or lote-tree]; (S, O, K;) described to AHn, by some one or more of the Arabs of the desert, as a sort of trees like the عُنَّاب [or jujube] in its thorns and the crookedness of its branches, but smaller in leaf, and having more branches; very hard, and having a small drupe, (نُبَيْقَة, [dim. of نَبِقَةٌ, n. un. of نَبِقٌ, which means the “ drupes of the سِدْر,”]) which is very acid: the places of its growth are lofty mountains; and bows are made of it [as is shown by an ex. in the S and O]: (TA:) [app. with tenween, having a] n. un. with ة: (S, K:) AHn says that the growth of the اشكل is like [that of] the trees called شِرْيَان [of which likewise bows are made]. (TA.) أَشْكَلَةٌ: see شَكْلٌ, first signification. b2: Also i. q. لُبْسٌ [meaning (assumed tropical:) Dubiousness, or confusedness]. (K.) A2: See also شَكْلَآءُ, in two places.

A3: Also A single tree of the species called أَشْكَل [q. v.]. (S, K.) مُشْكِلٌ, from أَشْكَلَ in the first of the senses assigned to it above, signifies Entering among [meaning confused with] its likes. (TA.) b2: And [hence, app., or] accord. to Sh, from شُكْلَةٌ meaning “ redness mixed with whiteness,” it signifies (assumed tropical:) Dubious, or confused. (TA.) [Used as a subst.,] it has for its pl. مُشْكِلَاتٌ [and مَشَاكِلُ also: for] one says, هُوَ يَفُكُّ المَشَاكِلَ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [He solves] the things, or affairs, that are dubious, or confused. (TA.) b3: مشكل [app. مُشْكِلٌ], applied to a horse, means Having a whiteness in his flanks. (AA, TA in art. دعم.) مُشَكَّلٌ Endowed with a goodly aspect, or appearance, and form. (TA.) مَشْكُولٌ A horse bound, or shackled, with the شِكَال [q. v.]. (O, TA.) b2: And (tropical:) A horse distinguished by the whiteness in the lower parts of certain of the legs which is denoted by the term شِكَالٌ [q. v.]: (S, Mgh, * O, TA:) such was disliked by the Prophet. (S.) [See also مُحَجَّلٌ.]

b3: And (tropical:) A writing restricted [in its meaning or pronunciation] with the signs of the desinential syntax [and the other syllabical signs and the diacritical points]. (AHát, TA.)
