1 عَثَرَ, aor. ـُ (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K) and عَثِرَ; (A, Msb, K;) and عَثِرَ, aor. ـَ and عَثُرَ, aor. ـُ (A, K;) inf. n. عِثَارٌ (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K) and عَثْرٌ and عَثِيرٌ; (K;) said of a man and of a horse, (S, Msb,) He stumbled, or tripped; [the most usual meaning;] or he fell upon his face; syn. كَبَا [which has both of these meanings]; as also ↓ تعثّر: (A, K:) or [simply] he fell; syn. سَقَطَ: (Mgh:) or one says of a man, (Msb on the authority of the Mukhtasar el-'Eyn, and TA on the authority of the T,) عَثَرَ, (Msb, TA,) inf. n. عُثُورٌ, (Msb,) or عَثْرَةٌ; (TA; [perhaps a mistranscription for عَثْرٌ;]) and of a horse, عَثَرَ, inf. n. عِثَارٌ; (Msb, TA;) فِعَالٌ being a measure of inf. ns. of verbs signifying various faults of horses and the like. (TA.) You say, عَثَرَ فِى ثَوْبِهِ [He stumbled, or tripped, upon his garment]. (S, O, Msb.) And فِى أَذْيَالِهِ ↓ خَرَجَ يَتَعَثَّرُ [He went forth stumbling, or tripping, upon his skirts]. (A.) And عَثَرَ بِهِ فَرَسُهُ فَسَقَطَ [His horse stumbled, or tripped, with him, and he fell]. (S, O.) and it is said in a prov., الجَوَادُ قَدْ يَعْثُرُ [The swift and excellent horse sometimes stumbles, or trips]: applied to a person by whom a slip that is not of his nature is seen to have been committed.

(S, O, TA.) b3: And [hence, app.,] عَثَرَ, (Kr, K, TA,) inf. n. عَثْرٌ, (Kr, O, TA,) (assumed tropical:) He lied. (Kr, O, K, TA.) One says, فُلَانٌ فِى العَثْرِ وَالبَائِنِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [Such a one is occupied] in truth and falsehood [or rather in falsehood and truth]. (O, TA.) b4: And عَثَرَ عَلَيْهِ, (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, O, Msb) and عَثِرَ, (TA,) inf. n. عَثْرٌ and عُثُورٌ, (O, Msb, K, [the latter erroneously written in the CK عَثُور,]) (tropical:) [He stumbled on it; lighted on it by chance;] he got, or obtained, knowledge of it; or sight and knowledge of it; became acquainted with it; knew it; or saw it; (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K, * TA;) accidentally, or without seeking; (TA;) [and so عَثَرَ بِهِ; (see an ex. voce أَشْرَسُ;)] and ↓ أَعْثَرَ signifies the same; but accord. to the usage of the Kur-án, you say أَعْثَرْتُ غَيْرِى: so in the Kitáb el-Abniyeh of IKtt. (TA. [See 4.]) You say, عَثَرَ عَلَى سِرِّ الرَّجُلِ (tropical:) He obtained knowledge of, or became acquainted with, the secret of the man [accidentally]. (TA.) [Hence,] فَإِنْ عُثِرَ عَلَى أَنَّهُمَا اسْتَحَقَّا إِثْمًا, in the Kur [v. 106], means (tropical:) But if it become known, or seen, (Ksh, Mgh, O, Bd, Jel,) that they two have done what has necessitated sin, (Ksh, Bd, Jel,) and deserved its being said of them that they were sinners. (Ksh.) And عَثَرَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. عُثُورٌ, as expl. by Lth, means (assumed tropical:) He (a man) entered suddenly, or unexpectedly, upon an affair upon which another had not so entered.

(TA.) b6: عَثَرَ العِرْقُ, (Lh, K,) inf. n. عَثْرٌ, (Lh, TA,) The vein pulsed.

(O.) 2 عَثَّرَ see the next paragraph, in three places.4 اعثرهُ He caused him to stumble, or trip; or to fall upon his face; [or simply, to fall;] as also ↓ عثّرهُ; (K, TA;) [and so بِهِ ↓ عَثَرَ; (see 1, last sentence, and see also عَاثُورٌ, first sentence;)] said of God. (TA.) IAar cites as an ex., فَخَرَجْتُ أُعْثَرُ فِى مَقَادِمِ جُبَّتِى

لَوْلَا الحَيَآءُ أَطَرْتُهُ إِحْضَارَا [And I went forth, made to stumble, or trip, upon the fore parts of my jubbeh: but for the sense of shame, I had made it to fly, in running]: accord. to one relation, however, the verb in question, in this verse, is أَعْثُرُ. (TA.) And اعثرهُ اللّٰهُ is syn. with أَتْعَسَهُ [of which see various explanations in art. تعس]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] اعثر بِهِ عِنْدَ السُّلْطَانِ, (K,) or عِنْدَهُ ↓ عثّرهُ, (A,) (tropical:) He impugned his character to the Sultán, (A, O, K,) and sought to make him fall into destruction by means of the latter. (A.) b3: And اعثرهُ عَلَيْهِ (tropical:) [He made him to stumble upon it, or to light on it by chance; or] he made him to get, or obtain, knowledge of it, or sight and knowledge of it; to become acquainted with it; to know it; or to see it; (S, A, O, Msb, K; *) accidentally, or without seeking. (B, TA.) Hence the phrase in the Kur [xviii. 20] أَعْثَرْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ; (S, Ta;) in which غَيْرَهُمْ, the objective complement, is suppressed. (TA.) And اعثرهُ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ (tropical:) He guided him, or showed him the way, to his companions. (A.) b4: اعثر جَدَّهُ, and ↓ عثّرهُ, (assumed tropical:) He [i. e. God] made his fortune, or good fortune, to fall. (K. [See عَثَرَ جَدُّهُ.]) A2: See also 1, latter half.5 تَعَثَّرَ see 1, in four places. Q. Q. 1 عَثْيَرَ القَوْمُ [from عِثْيَرٌ] The people, or party, raised the dust, or earth, or bits of dry clay or compact earth, (termed عِثْيَر,) with the extremities of their toes, in walking. (Kh, Har p. 488.) A2: عَيْثَرَ الطَّيْرَ [from عَيْثَرٌ] He saw, or beheld, the birds: or he saw that the birds ran: (O:) or he saw the birds running, and augured from them (فَزَجَرَهَا). (K. [But this addition, فزجرها, is evidently taken from an explanation of the words here following.]) A poet says, لَقَدْ عَيْثَرْتَ طَيْرَكَ لَوْ تَعِيفُ [i. e. Thou sawest, or beheldest, thy birds; &c.: would that thou wouldst augur from them, and take warning]. (O.) And you say, عَيْثَرْتُ الشَّىْءَ I saw, or beheld, the thing; (L, TA;) and individuated it. (TA.) عَثْرٌ: see عَثَرِىٌّ.

عُثْرٌ A lie; or falsehood; (K;) as also ↓ عَثَرٌ. (IAar, K.) A2: Also The Eagle: (K:) a meaning also assigned in the K, in art. عبر, but erroneously, to عُبْرٌ. (TA.) عَثَرٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

عَثْرَةٌ A stumble, or trip, (Msb, TA,) in walking, or going along: pl. عَثَرَاتٌ. (TA.) b2: and [hence,] (tropical:) A slip, lapse, fault, wrong action, or mistake; (S, O, Msb, TA;) so called as being a fall into sin or crime. (Msb.) One says, أَقَالَ اللّٰهُ عَثْرَتَكَ (tropical:) [May God cancel thy slip, lapse, fault, &c.]. (A.) And it is said in a trad., لَا حَلِيمَ إِلَّا ذُو عَثْرَةٍ i. e. (tropical:) There is no one to be characterized as of a forbearing disposition except he be one who has committed a slip, and becomes admonished thereby, distinguishing the occasions of error so as to avoid them [and to make allowance for others who have done the like]. (TA.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) War, or fight, against unbelievers or others; because war, or fight, is an occasion of frequent stumbling, or tripping: so in a trad., in which it is said, لَا تَبْدَأْهُمْ بِالعَثْرَةِ (assumed tropical:) [Begin not ye with them by war]; meaning invite ye them first to El-Islám or to the payment of the poll-tax; and if they assent not, then have recourse to war. (TA.) عَثِرَةٌ Land (أَرْض) without herbage, being high, and overspread with عِثْيَر, i. e. dust: (O, TA:) and said to occur in a trad. as the name of a particular land. (O, K, * TA.) عَثَرِىٌّ i. q. عِذْىٌ, (Az, S, O, Msb, TA,) as some say; (Msb;) i. e., (Az, S, O, TA,) Such as is watered by the rain (Az, S, K, TA) alone, (S,) of palm-trees, (Az, O, TA,) or of seed-produce: (S:) or such as is watered by water running upon the surface of the ground, (O, Msb,) of palmtrees: (Msb:) or seed-produce that is watered by torrents and by rain, the water being made to flow thereto in channels: (TA:) and ↓ عَثْرٌ signifies the same: (K, TA:) or, accord. to IAth, palm-trees (نَخِيل) that imbibe with their roots of the rain-water that collects in a part hollowed out in the ground: (TA:) the former term is said to be thus applied because what is so called is as though it stumbled upon water without any labour of its owner; regarding it as an irregular rel. n. from العَثْرُ: (O, * TA:) but Abu-l-'Abbás [i. e. Th] says that, thus applied, it is with teshdeed to the ث [i. e. عَثَّرِىٌّ], though not in the sense here following. (TA.) b2: Also (tropical:) A man who does not occupy himself in seeking the things of the present world nor those of the world to come: (O, K, TA:) occurring in a trad., in which such is said to be the most hateful of mankind to God: (O, TA:) in this sense, sometimes written with teshdeed to the ث, (K, TA,) and thus it is accord. to Sh (O, TA) and IAar; (TA;) but correctly without teshdeed: (Th, K, TA:) and said by some to be from عَثَرِىٌّ applied to palm-trees. (O, * TA.) One says also, جَآءَ فُلَانٌ عَثَرِيًّا, meaning (tropical:) Such a one came unoccupied. (O, TA.) عَثَارٌ or عِثَارٌ: see عَاثُورٌ, in six places: A2: and for عِثَارٌ see also عِثْيَرٌ.

عَثُورٌ [Having a habit of stumbling or tripping, or of falling:] that stumbles, or trips, and falls, much or often. (Har p. 296.) عِثْيَرٌ, (S, O, K,) not عَثْيَرٌ, for there is not in the language any word of the measure فَعْيَلٌ, with fet-h to the ف, except ضَهْيَدٌ, meaning “ hardy, strong, or robust,” and this is [said to be] forged, (S, O, [but see ضهيد,]) Dust, (MA, O, K,) syn. غُبَارٌ, (O,) or عَجَاجٌ, and تُرَابٌ, (K,) and thus ↓ عِثْيَرَاتٌ is expl. by Sb; (TA;) or dust rising or spreading; (S, MA; *) as also ↓ عِثْيَرَةٌ; (TA;) and ↓ عِثَارٌ signifies the same. (MA.) b2: and Clay, or earth, (K, TA,) or dust, or bits of clay or compact earth, (TA,) which one turns over (K, TA) with the extremities of the feet (K) or of the toes, in walking, or going along, no other mark of the foot being seen: (TA:) and an obscure trace or mark, (K, TA,) said to be more obscure than such as is termed أَثَرٌ: (TA:) and so ↓ عَيْثَرٌ, with the ى put before [the ث] and with fet-h to the ع in both [of these senses: misunderstood by SM as meaning “ and with fet-h to the ع in both words,” i. e. in عثير and عيثر]: (K:) or ↓ عَيْثَرٌ signifies an obscure trace or mark: (S:) and Yaakoob mentions the saying مَا رَأَيْتُ

↓ لَهُ أَثَرًا وَلَا عَيْثَرًا and وَلَا عِثْيَرًا [app. meaning I saw not any trace of him nor any obscure trace]: (S, O:) or ولا عِثْيَرًا means, nor clay, or earth, &c., turned over by the extremities of his feet: (TA:) and it is said that ↓ ولا عَيْثَرًا means, nor bodily form. (O.) And [it is said that] مَا لَهُ أَثَرٌ وَلَا عِثْيَرٌ and ↓ ولا عَيْثَرٌ means He is not known to be a pedestrian by the appearing of his foot-mark, nor to be a horseman by his horse's raising the dust. (TA.) [See also Har p. 488.]

عِثْيَرَةٌ, and its pl. عِثْيَرَاتٌ: see عِثْيَرٌ. b2: One says also أَرْضٌ عِثْيَرَةٌ, meaning A land in which is much dust. (TA.) عَاثِرٌ [Stumbling, or tripping; &c. b2: And] (assumed tropical:) A liar. (TA.) b3: And one says also جَدٌّ عَاثِرٌ (assumed tropical:) [Fortune, or good fortune, in a falling state: (see 1, near the end:)] pl. عَوَاثِرُ: (TA:) b4: or this may be pl of عَاثِرٌ signifying The snare of a sportsman: b5: or it may be pl. of ↓ عَاثِرَةٌ signifying (assumed tropical:) An accident that destroys, or causes to be overcome, him whom it befalls: (O:) b6: or it may be pl. of عَاثُورٌ [q. v.], the ى being suppressed, (O, TA,) by poetic license, in a verse in which it occurs. (TA.) عَيْثَرٌ The substance of a thing; its bodily, or corporeal, form; syn. عَيْنٌ and شَخْصٌ. (T, O, L, K, TA. [In this sense, it is said in the TA to be erroneously written in all the copies of the K عَثْيَر, with the ث before the ى; but I find it written عَيْثَر in my MS. copy of the K and also in the CK.]) See also عِثْيَرٌ, in five places.

عَاثِرَةٌ: see عَاثِرٌ.

عَاثُورٌ A pit dug for a lion or other [animal], (S, A, O,) that he may fall into it, (A,) in order that he may be taken: (S, O:) this is the primary signification: (A:) or a thing that is prepared for one to fall into it: (K:) or, as also عثار [i. e. ↓ عَثَارٌ or ↓ عِثَارٌ (see what follows)], a thing by which one is made to stumble and fall; expl. by بِهِ ↓ مَا عُثِرَ: (TA:) the pl. is عَوَاثِيرُ; whence, perhaps, عَوَاثِرُ, by suppression of the ى. (O, TA. [See عَاثرٌ.]) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) A place of perdition: (TA voce حَاجُورٌ:) or (tropical:) a cause, or place, of perdition or of death: (A, K:) applied to a land. (K.) You say, وَقَعَ فِى عَاثُورٍ (tropical:) He fell into a cause, or place, of perdition or of death. (A, TA.) And فُلَانٌ يَقِى صَاحِبَهُ العَوَاثِرَ (tropical:) [Such a one preserves his companion from the causes, or places, of perdition or of death]. (A.) And it is said in a trad., إِنَّ قُرَيْشًا أَهْلُ أَمَانَةٍ مَنْ بَغَاهَا العَوَاثِيرَ كَبَّهُ اللّٰهُ لِمَنْخِرَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) [Verily the tribe of Kureysh are people of fidelity: whoso seeks for them the causes, or places, of perdition or of death, may God lay him prostrate upon his nostrils]: or, accord. to one relation, عَوَاثِرَ. (O, TA.) b3: And [hence,] (tropical:) Difficulty, or distress; as also عَاثُورُ شَرٍّ: (S, O:) and evil; (K, TA;) like عَاذُورٌ, which is a dial. var. thereof, or an instance of mispronunciation; (S and O in art. عذر;) as also ↓ عَثَارٌ, (accord. to some copies of the K,) or ↓ عِثَارٌ: (thus in other copies of the K and in the TA [in the latter of which it is said to be with kesr; and this I think to be the more probably correct; originally an inf. n.]:) and شَرٍّ ↓ عِثَارُ is said by Fr to signify the same as عَاثُورُ شَرٍّ. (TA.) You say, لَقِيتُ مِنْهُ عَاثُورًا, (As, S, O, TA,) and ↓ عِثَارًا, (TA,) (tropical:) I experienced from him, or it, difficulty, or distress. (As, S, O, TA.) And وَقَعُوا فِى عَاثُورِ شَرٍّ, (As, S, O, TA,) and عَافُورِ شَرٍّ, (S, O,) (tropical:) They fell into difficulty, or distress: (As, S, O:) or into a confusion of evil and difficulty or distress. (TA.) It is the opinion of Yaakoob that the ف in عَافُور is a substitute for the ث in عَاثُور: but Az observes that this is not necessarily the case, as the meaning of difficulty is implied in the root عفر. (TA.) b4: It is said to signify also A kind of snare (مِصْيَدَة) made of bark. (O.) b5: And A channel that is dug for the purpose of irrigating thereby a palm-tree such as is termed بَعْلٌ. (O.) b6: And A well. (K.) A2: And it may also be used as an epithet [app. meaning Perilous, or destructive]. (ISd, TA.)

أَغْيَنُ Green: (S, TA:) or green inclining to blackness: (so in one of my copies of the S:) and [its fem.] غَيْنَآءُ is applied to a tree (شَجَرَةٌ) as meaning green, (AO, S, K, TA,) abounding with leaves, having tangled, or dense, branches, (AO, S, TA,) and soft, or tender: and sometimes it is thus applied to herbs: (TA:) or [applied to a tree] it signifies great, having wide shade: from the phrase غَانَ عَلَيْهِ كَذَا, expl. in the beginning of this art.: (Ham p. 574:) and أَغْيَنُ signifies [also] such as is tall, (K, TA,) of trees, or, by way of comparison [thereto], of men: (TA:) the pl. is غِينٌ: (S, TA:) which is expl. by Kr as meaning the abundance, and collected state, and beauty, of [the trees called] أَرَاك and سِدْر; but what is well known is that it is pl. of غَيْنَآء

applied to a tree; of which ↓ غِينَةٌ, with kesr, has also been mentioned as a pl., though, as ISd says, this is not known in the [genuine] language, nor is it agreeable with the analogy of Arabic. (TA.) مُغْيِن, in the original form, [for مُغِين, act. part. n. of أَغَانَ,] is used by Ru-beh in the following verse: أَمْسَى بِلَالٌ كَالرَّبِيعِ المُدْجِنِ

أَمْطَرَ فِى أَكْنَافِ غَيْنٍ مُغْيِنِ [There was, or came, in the evening, a moisture like the continual rain of winter that has rained in the tracts of overspreading clouds]. (S.)

(TA.) You say, جاب الصَّخْرَةَ He made a hole in the rock; (A, TA;) perforated, pierced, or bored, it. (TA.) Hence, in the Kur [lxxxix. 8], وَثَمُودَ الَّذِينَ جَابُوا الصَّخْرَ بِالوَادِ (Fr, S, TA) And Thamood, who made holes in the rocks, (Fr, TA,) or cut the rocks, (Bd, Jel,) [or hollowed them out,] and made them dwellings, in the valley, (Fr, Bd, Jel, TA,) i. e., in Wádi-l-Kurà.

أَجْوَبُ مِنْكَ [meaning He is better in answering, or replying, than thou: but see أَجْوَبُ, below].

(TA.) جَيْبٌ meaning The [part called] طَوْق of a shirt, (see art. جيب,) is, accord. to some, from the root جوب, because the middle of it is cut out: accord. to others, from the root جيب.

أَمُّكَ, i. e. “ Whither is thy tending? ” to which he (thinking that he said, أَيْنَ أُمُّكَ [“ Where is thy mother ! ”],) answered, “She is gone to buy flour: ” whereupon his father uttered the words of this prov. (TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 603.]) See also جَوَابٌ

A2: جَابَةُ المِدْرَى is a dial. var. of جَأْبَةُ المدرى: (K: [see art. جأب:]) accord. to AO and Sh, it is without ء: accord. to the former, it means A doe-gazelle when her horn has come forth; and accord. to the latter, when her horn has cut the skin and come forth: (T, TA:) or it means having smooth horns; and if so, it has no [known] derivation.

So in the phrase, إِنَّهُ لَحَسَنُ الجِيَبةِ [Verily he is good in respect of answer or reply or response: or here it seems rather to signify, agreeably with analogy, the mode, or manner, of answering or replying or responding]. (S.) جَوَابٌ An answer, a reply, or a response, (Msb, TA, *) to a letter, or writing, and to a saying, or question; and this is either affirmative or negative: (Msb:) [accord. to some, it is only after a question or demand; but this is not correct; for it is often a reply to an affirmation:] ↓ جِيبَةٌ [q. v.] is syn. therewith; (S, K;) and so are ↓ جَابَةٌ [q. v.] and ↓ مَجُوبَةٌ: (K:) the pl. of جواب is أَجْوِبَةٌ and جَوَابَاتٌ (Msb.) [Hence, in grammar, حَرْفُ جَوَابٍ A responsive, or replicative, particle. And جَوَابُ شَرْطٍ An apodosis; the complement, or correlative, of a condition; as أَكْرَمْتُكَ in the saying, إِنْ جِئْتَنِى أَكْرَمْتُكَ; also called جَزَآءُ شَرْطٍ, and جَوَابُ جَزَآءٍ. And جَوَابُ قَسَمٍ The complement of an oath.] b2: Also The sound of a bird pouncing down from the sky. (TA from a trad.) جَوَّابٌ [An excellent well-digger:] a surname given to Málik Ibn-Kaab El-Kilábee, (AO, ISk, S, K, *) because he dug not a well nor bored a rock without making it to yield water.

(K.) And [the pl.] جَوَائِبُ (assumed tropical:) Tidings from afar. (K.) And جَوَائِبُ الأَمْثَالِ (assumed tropical:) Current proverbs; such as traverse the countries. (TA.) أَجْوَبُ, [see 4,] in the following question, put to Mohammad, (TA,) أَىُّاللَّيْلِ أَجْوَبُ دَعْوَةً is either from جُبْتُ الأَرْضَ (K, TA) “ I traversed the land,” (TA,) and signifies (tropical:) More, or most, penetrating to the places whence the answer is imagined to proceed; (K, TA;) or [it signifies more, or most, quick in being answered,] from الدَّعْوَةُ ↓ جَابَتِ, of the measure فَعُلَت, [i. e., originally جَوُبَت,] “ the prayer became answered,”

which, however, is a verb not in use, like as فَقِيرٌ and شَدِيدٌ are imagined to be derived from فَقُرَ and شَدُدَ: (Z, TA:) or it signifies more, or most, quick of answer, [from أَجَابَ,] and is [anomalous, and] similar to أَطْوَعُ [“ more obedient ”], from الطَّاعَةُ, [i. e. from أَطَاعَ “ he obeyed,”] (M, L, TA,) and to أَعْطَى [“ more, or most, excellent in giving,” from أَعْطَى “ he gave ”], and لَوَاقِحَ [pl. of لَاقِحَةٌ a “ fecundating ” wind, (in the Kur xv. 22,) from أَلْقَحَ “ he, or it, fecundated ”], (M, L, K, TA,) and the like; (M, L, TA;) and if so, the word is anomalous because a word of the measure أَفْعَلُ of this kind is not derived from a verb of more than three letters, except in certain cases of deviation from the constant course of speech: (L, TA:) the meaning is, (tropical:) What part of the night is that [in which prayer most quickly penetrates? or] in which prayer is most quick in being answered? (Mgh:) or what part of the night is that in which God is most quick in answering prayer? (L, TA.) مَجُوبُ [pass. part. n. of 1, q. v.:] Anything cut in the middle, or of which the middle is cut out; as also ↓ مُجَوَّبٌ; (T, TA;) and the latter, anything hollowed out in the middle.

A2: ثَأْرٌ also signifies, (A,) or ↓ ثَائِرٌ, (T,) One who seeks blood-revenge, or retaliation of the slaughter of his relation: and one of whom is sought blood-revenge, or retaliation of the slaughter of a relation: (T, A:) the latter primarily signifies a slayer; and hence, a slayer of a person's relation in vengeance, or retribution: (Ham p. 637:) and the former, one who is sought, or pursued, for blood-revenge; an inf. n. used as a subst.: (Ham p. 87:) the slayer of a person's relation; (S, M, A, K;) as also ↓ ثَائِرٌ: (A:) pl. of the former أَثْآرٌ and آثَارٌ [as above] (K) and ثَأْرَاتٌ: (S, A, K:) the first of which three is [also] pl. of ثَائِرٌ.

(T, S, K.) يَا ثَأْرَاتِ عُثْمَانَ, occurring in a trad., which is also related with the substitution of تَارَات for ثأرات, may be explained in the same manner; or it may mean O ye seekers of the blood-revenge of 'Othmán, aid me to obtain it; the prefixed noun طَالِبِى, or أَهْل, being understood. (Nh, TA. [See also تَارَةٌ in art. تور.]) ثَأْرٌ مُنِيمٌ [A slayer of one's relation who causes his slayer to sleep,] means one with whom the seeker [of blood-revenge or retaliation] is contented, if he find him [and slay him], so that he sleeps after; (S, K;) one who, if slain, causes the pursuer of blood-revenge to cease from the pursuit: (Ham p. 87:) or a person who is an equivalent for the blood of one's relation [and who therefore, by his being slain in retaliation, makes the avenger to sleep]: (T:) or a person of rank, or note, in whom [i. e. by the slaughter of whom] one has his full desire accomplished. (A.) In a trad. of Mohammad Ibn-Selemeh, relating to the day of Kheyber, occur the words, أَنَا لَهُ يَا

↓ رَسُولُ اللّٰهِ المَوْتُورُ لِلثَّائِرِ, meaning [I am for him, i. e. I am he who should slay him, O Apostle of God:] the seeker of blood-revenge [is for him of whom blood-revenge is sought]. (L.

أَثْآرَكُمْ Do not sheathe your swords from your young ones, [neglecting to teach them the use thereof,] and so make your enemies to attain their desire of blood-revenge. (TA.) ثَأْرَةٌ: see ثَأْرٌ.

(TA.) فُرْطَةٌ The act of going forth; (S, O, K; *) and of preceding, or going before. (S, O.) Hence the saying of Umm-Selemeh, to 'Áïsheh, نَهَاكِ عَنِ الفُرْطَةِ فِى البِلَادِ [He (referring to Mohammad) forbade thee from going forth into the country, or provinces]. (S, O.) And فُلَانٌ ذُو فُرْطَةٍ فِى

البِلَادِ Such a one is a person who makes many journeys. (TA.) فَرَطِىٌّ and فُرَطِىٌّ, (Ibn-'Abbád, K,) but the latter is said in the Moheet to be with damm, [which most probably means that it is فُرْطِىٌّ, and it is thus written in the O,] (TA,) applied to a camel and to a man, Untractable, refractory, or stubborn; (Ibn-'Abbád, K;) not rendered manageable or submissive. (TA.) فِرَاطٌ (S, O) and ↓ فُرَاطَةٌ, like ثُمَامَةٌ, or ↓ فِرَاطَةٌ, (so in the O,) Water that is for him, of the tribes, who first arrives at it; (S, O;) water that is common property among a number of tribes, and is for him who first arrives at it: (O, K:) and in like manner the latter word applied to a well.

You say, بَيْنَ بَنِى فُلَانٍ ↓ هٰذَا مآءٌ فُرَاطَةٌ وَبَنِى فُلَانٍ, meaning, [This is water between the sons of such a one and the sons of such a one, so that] whichever of them arrives at it first waters [his beasts] and the others do not throng him.

(S, TA.) b4: فَارِطٌ also signifies One who goes before to dig the grave: pl. as above, and also فَوَارِطُ, which latter is extr., like فَوَارِسُ, pl. of فَارِسٌ, as is said in the O. (TA.) b5: And hence, (Lth, TA,) الفَارِطَانِ, (Lth, S, O, K,) in the A ↓ الفَرَطَانِ, (TA,) (tropical:) Two stars, (Lth, S, O, K,) separate, each from the other, (Lth, S, O,) before [the stars in the tail of the Bear, app. meaning the Greater Bear, called] بَنَات نَعْش, (K,) or before the bier (سَرِير) of بنات نعش: [each] being likened to the فارط who goes before a company of men to dig the grave. (Lth, O, TA.) مُفْرَطٌ Sent before, or first, or foremost. (TA.) Hence the saying in the Kur [xvi. 64], (TA,) وَأَنَّهُمْ مُفْرَطُونَ And that they shall be sent before, or first, or foremost, to the fire [of Hell], and hastened thither; (Az, O, K, TA;) this being the primary signification: (Az, O, TA:) or forgotten (Mujáhid, Fr, O) in the fire [of Hell]: (Fr:) or neglected, or left: (TA:) or forgotten, and neglected or left, in the fire: and another reading is ↓ مُفْرِطُونَ, meaning [they are] exceeding the limits assigned to them: (O, K:) and another is ↓ مُفَرِّطُونَ, meaning [falling short of their duty] to themselves, in respect of sins. (TA.) b2: [Filled, or] full; applied to a pool of water left by a torrent. (S, TA.) مُفْرِطٌ Exceeding the due bounds, or just limits; acting extravagantly; applied to a man: excessive; applied to anything; as, for instance, tallness, and shortness. (TA.)

(TA.) See also مُفْرَطٌ.
