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. (AO, ISk, S.) b2: (assumed tropical:) A traverser of countries; one who travels much. (TA.) Hence, جَوَّابُ لَيْلٍ سَرْمَدٍ (assumed tropical:) One who travels all the night without sleeping. (TA.)

(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. (TA.) مِجْوَبٌ An iron instrument with which one cuts [or perforates or hollows out]. (S, TA.) b2: See also جَوْبٌ المُجِيبُ one of the names of God; The Answerer of prayer; He who recompenses prayer and petition by gift and acceptance.

(A.) [Accord. to the TA, the addition “ from this place and that,” which is found in the K and A, and in one place in the S, seems to be unnecessary. And ↓ انتقر signifies the same: see 8, in art. قب.] b2: [Hence, because of the sure aim with which a bird pecks a thing,] the same verb, having the same [aor. and] inf. n. signifies, (tropical:) It (an arrow) hit the butt. (Msb.) And He (an archer) hit the butt, without making his arrow to pass through, partly or wholly. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] (assumed tropical:) He took [or picked] a thing, as, for instance, food, with the finger. (TA.) b4: Also, (M, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (M, TA,) He struck a thing (IKtt, K, * TA,) with a thing: (IKtt, TA:) [generally, he struck, knocked, or pecked, a thing with a pointed instrument, like as a bird strikes a thing with its beak:] he struck [or pecked] a mill-stone, or a stone, &c., with a مِنْقَار [which is a pick, or a kind of pickaxe; i. e., he wrought it into shape, and roughened it in its surface, with a pick]. (M, TA.) b5: [Hence,] (tropical:) He wrote [or engraved writing] فِى حَجَرٍ upon a stone. (A, K.) Whence the saying, التَّعْلِيمُ فِى الصِّغَرِ كَالنَّقْرِ عَلَى الحَجَرِ [or, as in a verse of Niftaweyh, فِى الحَجَرِ, i. e., Teaching in infancy is like engraving writing upon stone].

You say also أُذُنَهُ ↓ أَنْقَرَ, meaning, He struck [or fillipped] his ear with his finger. (AA, in TA, art. نطب.) b7: [Hence,] نَقَرَ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. نَقْرٌ, as appears from what follows;] and ↓ أَنْقَرَ; (tropical:) [He made a snapping with his thumb and middle finger;] he struck his thumb against the end of the middle finger and made a sound with them.

(TA.) A poet, (S,) Fedekee El-Minkaree, (K,) i. e., 'Obeyd Ibn-Máweeyeh, of the tribe of Teiyi, (TA,) uses النَّقُرْ for النَّقْرْ, meaning النَّقْرُ بِالْخَيْلِ [The smacking with the tongue to urge the horses]: pausing after the word, at the end of a hemistich, he transfers the vowel of the ر to the ق, (S, K,) agreeably with the dial. of certain of the Arabs, (TA,) that the hearer may know it to be the vowel of the [final] letter when there is no pause; (S;) like as you say, هٰذَا بَكْرُ and مَرَرْتُ بِبَكِرْ: but this is not done when the word is in the accus. case (S, K:) and if you choose, you may make the final letter quiescent in pausing, though it is preceded by a quiescent letter. (S.) b9: Hence also, فَإِذَا نُقِرَ فِى النَّاقُورِ [Kur, lxxiv. 8,] (tropical:) For when the horn shall be blown: (S, * A, * Bd, K:) from نَقْرٌ signifying (tropical:) the making a sound: originally, striking, which is the cause of sound. (Bd.) See also نَاقُورٌ, below. b10: Also, نَقَرَ He bored, perforated, or made a hole through or in or into, a thing: (TA:) or he did so with a مِنْقَار: (S:) and, inf. n. نَقْرٌ, he hollowed out, or excavated, a piece of wood. (Mgh, Msb.) نُقِرٌ and ↓ اِنْتَقَرَ, (so in some copies of the K,) or ↓ أُنْتُقِرَ, (so in other copies of the K and in the TA,) both in the pass. form, (TA,) said of stone and of wood and the like, signify alike, (K,) It was bored, or perforated, or it had a hole made through or in or into it: (TA:) [and it was hollowed out.] Yousay, نَقَرَ البَيْضَةَ عَنِ الفَرْخِ, (K,) aor. ـُ inf. n. نَقْرٌ, (TA.)

(Lth, A, K.) And in like manner, ↓ انتقرت السُّيُولُ نُقَرًا The torrents left hollows in the ground, in which water was retained. (TA.) b11: Hence, نَقَرَ عَنِ الأَمْرِ; (Msb;) and عَنْهُ ↓ نقّر, (S, K,) inf. n. تَنْقِيرٌ; (S;) and ↓ نقّرهُ; and ↓ تنقّرهُ: and ↓ انتقرهُ; (K;) (tropical:) He searched or inquired into the thing; investigated, scrutinized, or examined, it; (S, Msb, K, TA;) and endeavoured to know it: (TA;) and so نَقَرَ عَنِ لخَبَرِ (tropical:) he investigated the news, and endeavoured to know it. (A.) [and hence,] السَّهْمَ بَيْنَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ ↓ نقّر. (K, in art. حن,) or عَلَى الإِبْهَامِ, inf. n. تَنْقِيرٌ, (K, in art. دوم,) [He tried the sonorific quality of the arrow by turning it round between his fingers, or upon his thumb: see حَنَّانٌ, and دَرَّ السَّهْمُ, and see also 4, in art. دوم: or] نقّر السَّهْمَ signifies he made the arrow to produce a sharp sound [by turning it round between his fingers, or] upon his thumb. (TK, in art. دوم.) 2 نَقَّرَ see 1, last two sentences.4 أَنْقَرَ see 1, in three places, in the first half.

A2: انقر عَنْهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. إِنْفَارٌ, (TA,) He refrained, forbore, abstained, or desisted, from it or him; he left or relinquished, it or him. (S, * K.) Hence the saying, ضَرَبَهُ فَمَا أَنْقَرَ عَنْهُ حَتَّى قَتَلَهُ He beat him and left him not until be killed him. (TA.) And hence the saying of I'Ab, مَاكَانَ اللّٰهُ لِيُنْقِرَ عَنْ قَاتِلِ الْمُؤْمِنِ, i. e., God will not leave the slayer of the believer until He destroy him (S, TA.) 5 تَنَقَّرَ see 1, last signification 8 إِنْتَقَرَ see 1, latter part, in four places.

نَقْرٌ (tropical:) A slight sound that is heard in consequence of striking the thumb against the middle finger [and then letting them fly apart in opposite directions, passing each other]: (S, K:) [or the snapping with the fingers or with the thumb and middle finger, or with the thumb and first finger; as also ↓ نَقيرٌ: n. an. of the former with ة.] One says, مَا أَثَابَهُ نَقْرَةٌ (tropical:) [He did not reward him with even a snap of the fingers;] meaning, with anything: (S, K [in the former of which it is implied that نقرة thus used is from نَقْرٌ in the first of the senses explained above;]) not used thus save in [a negative phrase. (S.) A poet says, وَهُنّ حَرَى أَلَّا يُثِبْنَكَ نقْرَةٌ وَأَنْتَ حَرُى بِالنَّار حِينَ تُثِيبُ (tropical:) [And they are fit, or worthy, not to reward thee with anything, and thou art fit for, or worthy of, the fire of hell when thou rewardest]. (S.) Or the right reading in both these instances is ↓ نُقْرَةً, with damm. (TA.)

[See also an (??) in a verse cited in the first paragraph of art. شأو.] I'Ab, in explanation of the words of the Kur, [iv. 123,] وَلَا يُظْلَمُونَ نَقِيرًا, put the end of the thumb against the inner side of his first finger, then made a snapping with it (ثُمَّ نَقَرَهَا), and said, This is what is termed ↓ نَقِيرٌ; [denoting the lit. meaning to be (tropical:) And they shall not be wronged a snap of the fingers.] (TA.) But see نُقْرَةٌ, below. b2: Also, A sound, or slight sound, by which a horse is put in motion: (TS, K:) as also ↓ نَقِيرٌ: (TA:) or the former has one or other of the different significations assigned to it above, in the explanations under the head of نَقَرَ بِالدَّابَّةِ.

(TA. [See also the part. n., مُسْهَبٌ, below.]) إِسْهَابُ اللُّبِّ [in which the former word is probably the inf. n. of أُسْهِبَ, not of أَسْهَبَ,] means The mind's being confounded, or perplexed, by [love of] a woman.

[with respect to rule], (S, TA,) Loquacious, or profuse of speech: (Az, IAar, ISk, IKt, Zbd, S, K, TA:) or, accord. to Aboo-'Alee El-Baghdádee, as is stated by IB, the former signifies profuse and erroneous in speech: and the ↓ latter, eloquent, or profuse and correct in speech: and in like manner says El-Aalam, adding that ↓ the latter is shown to have this meaning by its being applied to a horse that is fleet, or swift, and excellent: (TA:) or the former signifies doting; or disordered in his intellect: (As, TA:) or doting much, or often; or much, or often, disordered in his intellect: (AO, TA:) [and similar explanations of it will be found below:] other instances of verbs of the measure أَفْعَلَ having مُفْعَلٌ as the measure of the part. n. used in the sense of the measure مُفْعِلٌ are أَلْفَجَ and أَحْصَنَ and أَجْرَشَتِ الإِبِلُ and أَهْتَرَ: as used in the first of the senses expl. in this sentence, مُسْهَبٌ is from سُهْبٌ signifying “ a wide land: ” or, as some say, it is from أَسْهَبُوا الدَّابَّةَ, expl. above; as though the person to whom it is applied were left to speak what he would, or made to have ample scope to say what he would.

(O and TA in art. زلف.) b2: [Hence,] اسلف فِى, كَذَا, (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) inf. n. إِسْلَافٌ; (TA;) and فِيهِ ↓ سلّف, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) inf. n. تَسْلِيفٌ; (Msb, TA;) He paid in advance, or beforehand, for such a thing, (S, Mgh, TA,) i. e. a commodity described to him, (S,) or wheat or the like, for which the seller became responsible, [with something additional to the equivalent of the current price at the time of the payment, (see سَلَفٌ,)] (TA,) to be delivered at a certain period: (S:) and أَسْلَمَ signifies the same. (TA.) You say, أَسْلَفْتُ إِلَيْهِ فِى كَذَا and إِلَيْهِ ↓ سَلَّفْتُ [I paid in advance to him for such a thing, &c.]. (Msb.) Hence the saying in a trad., فَيُسَلِّفْ ↓ مَنْ سَلَّفَ فِى كَيْلٍ مَعْلُومٍ وَوَزْنٍ مَعْلُومٍ إِلَى أَجَلٍ مَعْلُومٍ i. e. He who pays in advance for a commodity for which the seller is responsible, let him pay in advance for a certain measure, and a certain weight, to be delivered at a certain period. (TA.) b3: And اسلفهُ مَالًا, (S, M, Mgh, TA,) and ↓ سلّفهُ, (M, Mgh, TA,) He lent him property [to be repaid, or returned, without any profit]. (M, Mgh, TA. [See, again, سَلَفٌ.]) [Whence one says, اسلفهُ إِحْسَانًا and سلّفهُ, and ↓ سلّفهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) He did to him, to be requited it, a good action and an evil action; as is shown by the words مَا أَسْلَفْتَ مِنْ إِسَآءَةٍ أَوْ إِحْسَانٍ وَمَا تُعْطِيهِ لِتُقْضَاهُ in art. قرض in the K, and by the corresponding words مَا سَلَّفْتَ مِنْ إِحْسَانٍ وَمِنْ إِسَآءَةٍ in the same art. in the S: see also Bd in xxxvi. 11: and see زَلَّفَهُ. And hence,] a poet says, تُسَلِّفُ ↓ الجَارَ شِرْبًا وَهْىَ حَائِمَةٌ وَالمَآءُ لَزْنٌ بَكِىْءُ العَيْنِ مُقْتَسَمُ (assumed tropical:) [They (referring to camels) yield promptly to the neighbour a draught of milk, while they are thirsty, and going round about the water, when the water is crowded upon, scanty in the source, divided by lot]. (TA. [See also some verses of El-Akra' Ibn-Mo'ádh, in which the former hemistich occurs with a different latter hemistich, in the Ham p. 753.]) A2: See also 1, last sentence but one.5 تسلّف He received payment in advance: and ↓ استسلف [perhaps a mistranscription for ↓ استلف] signifies [the same; or] he took, or received, what is termed سَلَف. (Msb.) b2: [and hence,] تسلّف مِنْهُ He received from him a loan; syn. اِقْتَرَضَ; as also ↓ استلف. (A in art. قرض.) And تسلّف مِنْهُ كَذَا He received as a loan from him such a thing. (TA.) b3: See also 10. b4: And تسلّف He ate the [portion of food termed] سُلْفَة. (MA.) [See also 2.]6 تسالفا They two took as their wives two sisters. (M, K.) 8 إِسْتَلَفَ see 5, in two places.10 اِسْتَسْلَفْتُ مِنْهُ دَرَاهِمَ I sought, or demanded, of him money as a loan; as also ↓ تَسَلَّفْتُ. (S, * TA.) Hence, استسلف مِنْ أَعْرَابِىٍّ بَكْرًا He sought, or demanded, as a loan, from an Arab of the desert, a [youthful he-camel such as is termed]

بَكْر. (TA.) b2: And استسلف ثَمَنَهُ He sought, or demanded, its price in advance; syn. اِسْتَقْرَضَهُ. (Har p. 530.) b3: See also 5.

A2: [And استسلف He took as his wife the wife of his deceased brother: so in a version of the Bible, in Deut. xxv. 5: mentioned by Golius.]

سِلْفٌ; and its fem., with ة; and their duals: see سَلِفٌ, in five places: A2: and see سَلَفٌ, last sentence.

سَلَفٌ Such as have gone before, or preceded; (M, Msb; *) [i. e. the preceding generations;] as also ↓ سَلِيفٌ and ↓ سُلْفَةٌ and ↓ سَلُوفٌ; all quasipl. ns.; (M;) of which the sing. is ↓ سَالِفٌ: (M, Msb: *) or such as have gone before, or preceded, of a man's ancestors (S, K) and of his relations, (K,) that are above him in age and in excellence; [but this addition is not always agreeable with usage;] one of whom is termed ↓ سَالِفٌ: (TA:) the pl. of سَلَفٌ is أَسْلَافٌ and سُلَّافٌ, (S, K,) [the former a pl. of pauc. and the latter of mult.,] or the latter is pl. of ↓ سَالِفٌ, and so is سَلَفٌ [said to be, though this is more properly termed, as it is in the M, a quasi-pl. n.]: (IB, Msb, TA:) and, accord. to Zj, سُلُفٌ is pl. of ↓ سَلِيفٌ, and سُلَفٌ is pl. of ↓ سُلْفَةٌ, which means a company (عُصْبَةٌ) that has passed away: (M:) or ↓ سَالِفٌ and ↓ سَلِيفٌ signify the same; going before; preceding; syn. مُتَقَدِّمٌ. (S.) [Accord. to Abu-lMahásin, السَّلَفُ is particularly applied to 'Áïsheh the wife of Mohammad, the three Khaleefehs Aboo-Bekr and 'Omar and 'Othmán, Talhah and Ez-Zubeyr, the Khaleefeh Mo'áwiyeh, and 'Amr Ibn-El-Ás. (De Sacy's Chrest. Ar., sec. ed., i. 156.)] And السَّلَفُ الصَّالِحُ is applied to the first chief persons of the Tábi'ees. (TA.) and السَّلَفُ المُقَدَّمُ is an appellation of the prophet Mohammad. (Ham p. 780.) [Hence, مَذَاهِبُ السَّلَفِ The tenets of the early Muslims.] b2: Also A people, or party, going before, or preceding, in journeying. (TA.) b3: And [simply] A company of men; as in the saying, جَآءَنِى سَلَفٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ [A company of men came to me]. (M.) b4: and Any good, or righteous, deed, that one has done beforehand [by way of preparing a future reward]: or any فَرَط [i. e. cause of reward, or recompense, in the world to come, such as a child dying in infancy], that [as it were] goes before one. (A 'Obeyd, O, K.) b5: And i. q. سَلَمٌ; (T, Hr, Mgh, O, K, TA;) i. e. Any money, or property, paid in advance, or beforehand, as the price of a commodity for which the seller has become responsible and which one has bought on description: (T, TA:) or payment for a commodity to be delivered at a certain [future] period with something additional to [the equivalent of] the current price at the time of such payment; this [transaction] being a cause of profit to him who makes such payment; and سَلَمٌ also has this meaning: (TA:) or a sort of sale in which the price is paid in advance, and the commodity is withheld, on the condition of description, to a certain [future] period: (S, O:) it is a subst. from الإِسْلَافُ. (Msb, * K, TA.) b6: and A loan (قَرْضٌ) in which is no profit (Hr, O, Mgh, K, TA) to the lender (Hr, O, K, TA) except recompense [in the world to come] and thanks, (TA,) and which it is incumbent on the recipient thereof to return as he received it: (Hr, O, K, TA:) thus the Arabs term it: (Hr, O, TA:) and in this sense also the word is a subst. from الإِسْلَافُ. (TA.) A2: Also A stallion-camel. (IAar, M, TA.) A3: Also, (M,) or ↓ سُلْفَةٌ, (O, TA,) The prepuce of a boy; (M, O, TA;) so says Lth; (O, TA;) and ↓ سَلِفٌ and ↓ سِلْفٌ signify the same; for this is meant by الجِلْدُ as an explanation of السَّلِفُ and السِّلْفُ in the K, in some copies of which الخُلْدُ is erroneously put for الجِلْدُ. (TA.) سَلِفٌ and ↓ سِلْفٌ The husband of the sister of the wife of a man: (S, K:) and [the duals]

سَلِفَانِ (M, TA) and ↓ سِلْفَانِ (M, K) signify the two husbands of two sisters: (M, K:) accord. to IAar, the epithet سَلِفَةٌ [or ↓ سِلْفَةٌ] is not applied to a woman; (M;) one only uses the term سَلِفَانِ applied to two men: (M:) or, (M, K,) accord. to Kr, سَلِفَتَانِ, (M,) or ↓ سِلْفَتَانِ, (K,) is applied to the two wives of two brothers: (M, K:) [in the present day, ↓ سِلْفَةٌ is used as meaning a woman's husband's sister, and her brother's wife:] the pl. applied to men is أَسْلَافٌ, (M, K, TA,) and that applied to women is سَلَفٌ. (TA.) A2: See also سَلَائِفُ, last sentence.

سَلَفٌ The young one of the حَجَل [or partridge]: (S, M, K:) or, accord. to Kr, of the قَطَاة [n. un. of قَطًا, q. v.]: (M:) AA says that he had not heard سُلَفَةٌ, applied to the female; but if one said سُلَفَةٌ, like as one says سُلَكَةٌ as meaning a single female of what are termed سِلْكَانِ, it would be approvable: (S:) the pl. is سِلْفَانِ (S, M, K) and سُلْفَانٌ: (M, K:) some say that سِلْفَانٌ signifies a species of bird, not particularized. (M.) [See also سُلَحٌ and سُلَكٌ.]

سُلْفَةٌ: see سَلَفٌ, first sentence, in two places. [Hence,] one says, جَاؤُوا سُلْفَةً سُلْفَةً, meaning They came [one before another; or, which is virtually the same,] one after, or near after, or at the heels of, another. (Az, K.) b2: Also A portion of food (S, M, TA) which a man takes betimes, (S,) or with which one contents, or satisfies, himself [so as to allay the craving of his stomach], (M,) before the [morning-meal called]

غَدَآء; (S, M, TA;) i. q. لُمْجَةٌ (K, TA) and لُهْنَةٌ: (TA:) or a لُهْنَة that is supplied betimes for a guest, before the غَدَآء.

سِلْفَةٌ; and its dual: see سَلِفٌ, in three places.

سُلَافٌ (T, S, M, Mgh) and ↓ سُلَافَةٌ (T, M, Mgh) The portion that flows before its being expressed, (S, Mgh,) of the juice of the grape; (S;) and this is the most excellent of wine: (Mgh:) or the first that is expressed, of wine: or the portion that flows without its being expressed: or the first that descends, thereof: (M:) or the clearest, or purest, and most excellent, of wine, such as flow from the grapes without their being pressed, and without steeping, or maceration; (T, TA;) and in like manner, such as flows from dates, (T, TA,) and from raisins, before water has been added to it (T, M, * TA) after the exuding of the first thereof; (T, TA:) or the latter signifies the first that is expressed, of anything: (M:) or it has this meaning also: and the former is a name for wine [absolutely]: (S:) or each has this meaning: (K:) or each signifies the clear, or pure, of wine, and of anything. (M.) b2: سُلَافُ العَسْكَرِ: see سَالِفٌ.

سَلُوفٌ: see سَلَفٌ, first sentence. b2: Also, applied to a she-camel, (S, M, K,) That is among the foremost of the camels when they come to the water: (S, K:) or that precedes the [other] camels to the watering-trough or tank: (M:) or that precedes, or leads, the other camels; opposed to عَنُودٌ.

[Hence,] الأُمَمُ السَّالِفَةُ The peoples going before, or preceding, [or that have gone, or passed away, before,] those remaining, or continuing: (K, * TA:) pl. سَوَالِفُ. (TA.) One says, كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى الأُمَمِ السَّالِفَةِ وَالقُرُونِ السَّوَالِفِ [That was in the time of the preceding peoples, and the preceding generations]: the pl. in this instance being used because every portion of the قرون is termed سَالِفَةٌ. (TA.) [Hence also,] العَسْكَرِ سُلَّافٌ, in the K, by implication, العسكر ↓ سُلَافُ, the former word like غُرَاب, whereas it is correctly like رُمَّان, The van of the army, as expl. in the K.

i. e. [I will assuredly fight with them, or combat them,] until the side of my neck shall become separate from what is next to it: an allusion to death. (TA.) b3: And [hence, i. e.] by the application of the name of the place to that which occupies the place, (assumed tropical:) The locks of hair that are made to hang down upon the cheek [or rather upon the side of the fore part of the neck]: said by MF to be metonymical, or tropical.

(TA.) بَيْنَهُمَا أُسْلُوفَةٌ Between them two is صِهْرٌ [i. e. affinity, app. by their having married to sisters: see سَلِفٌ]. (O, K.) مُسْلِفٌ, (S, M, O, L,) thus in some copies of the K, as in the S &c., but in other copies of the K, erroneously, ↓ سُلْفٌ, (TA,) A woman that has attained the age of five and forty years, (S, M, O, K,) and the like: (S, M, O:) or i. q. نَصَفٌ [i. e. middle-aged, or forty-five years old, or fifty years old]: (M:) an epithet specially applied to a female.

(S, M: in the O with إِلَى in the place of فِيهَا.) مِسْلَفَةٌ An instrument with which land is made even, (S, M, O, K, TA,) of stone: A 'Obeyd says, I think it is a stone made round [or cylindrical, i. e. a stone roller,] which is rolled upon the land to make it even.

أَرْضٌ الجَنَّةِ مَسْلُوفَةٌ, occurring in a trad., The ground of Paradise is made even: (As, T, S, O, TA:) said by As to be of the dial. of El-Yemen and Et-Táïf: accord. to IAth, smooth and soft. (TA.)

(TA.) b2: [Hence], شَكَمَ الوَالِىَ, (S, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,) (tropical:) He bribed the والى [i. e. prefect, or the like]; as though he stopped his mouth with the شَكِيمَة, (S, K, TA,) i. e. the [bit, or] iron thing of the لِجَام. (TA.) And شَكَمَ فَاهُ بِالإِتَاوَةِ i. e. (assumed tropical:) [He stopped (lit. bitted) his mouth] with the bribe.

شَكِيمٌ: see شَكِيمَةٌ, in three places. b2: Also The loop-shaped handles of the cooking-pot. (S, K.) شَكَامَةٌ expl. by Golius as meaning “ Malitia indolis, contumacia,” as on the authority of the KL, is app. a mistake for شَكَاسَةٌ, which I find expl. in the KL as signifying the “ being evil in nature, or natural disposition,” but not شكامة. b2: Freytag explains it as meaning also Likeness; a signification of شَكِيمَةٌ, also mentioned by him; but for this he names no authority, and I know of none.]

(Ham p. 140.) b3: Also (assumed tropical:) Likeness, or resemblance. (K.) b4: and (assumed tropical:) A compact, or covenant; syn. عَهْدٌ: (K, TA:) in some copies of the K, الفَهْدُ is erroneously put for العَهْدُ. (TA.) شكو and شكى 1 شَكَا, (K,) first Pers\. شَكَوْتُ, (S, Msb,) of which شَكَيْتُ is a dial. var., (K in art. شكى,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb,) [and of the latter 1َ2ِ3َ,] inf. n. شَكْوٌ, (S, Msb,) or شَكْوَى, (K,) or this is a simple subst., (S, Msb,) also pronounced شَكْوًى, (K,) and شِكَايَةٌ, (S, K,) with kesr, (K,) in which the ى is [said to be] substituted for و because most inf. ns. of the measure فِعَالَةٌ of verbs ending with an infirm radical letter are of verbs of which that letter is ى, (TA,) or this also is a simple subst., (Msb,) and شَكَاةٌ, (S, K,) or this too is a simple subst., (Msb,) and شَكَاوَةٌ, (K,) and شَكِيَّةٌ, (S, K,) is a trans. verb; (S, Msb, K;) and ↓ اشتكى signifies the same; (S, K;) as also ↓ تشكّى: (K:) one says, شَكَا أَمْرَهُ إِلَى اللّٰهِ and ↓ اشتكى [i. e.

اشتكى أَمْرَهُ], and ↓ تشكّى [i. e. تشكّى أَمْرَهُ], (K, TA,) meaning [He complained of his case to God; or] he told to God the weakness of his condition: (TA:) and شَكَوْتُ فُلَانًا and ↓ اِشْتَكَيْتُهُ [I complained to such a one of his conduct to me]; (S;) [or] شَكَا فُلَانًا means he told such a one of his evil conduct to him: (TA:) and شَكَا فُلَانًا

إِلَى فُلَانٍ He complained of such a one to such a one: (MA:) [and شَكَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ كَذَا I complained to him of such a thing:] see 4: and [in like manner] إِلَيْهِ كَذَا ↓ اشتكى He complained to him of such a thing: (MA:) and مِنْهُ ↓ اِشْتَكَيْتُ [I complained of him, or it; like شَكَوْتُهُ]: (Msb:) Er-Rághib says, الشِكَايَةُ is The showing, or revealing, of grief, or sorrow; whence the saying in the Kur [xii. 86], إِنَّمَا أَشْكُو بَثِّى وَحُزْنِى إِلَى اللّٰهِ [I only show my grief and my lamentation to God]; and in the same [lviii. 1], إِلَى اللّٰهِ ↓ وَتَشْتَكِى [and showeth her grief, or sorrow, to God]; the primary signification of الشَّكْوُ being the opening of the small skin for water or milk called شَكْوَة, and showing what is in it; so that it is as though originally metaphorical [though what is termed حَقِيقَةٌ عُرْفِيَّةٌ (expl. in art. حق)]; like the phrases بَثَثْتُ لَهُ مَا فِى وِعَائِى and نَفَضْتُ لَهُ مَا فِى جِرَابِى, meaning “ I showed him what was in my heart. ” (TA.) b2: شَكَا is also said of a camel as meaning He stretched out his neck, and made much moaning, or prolonged utterance of a complaining voice, being fatigued by journeying. (TA.) b3: and شَكَاهُ, (MA, K, TA,) inf. n. شَكْوٌ and شَكَاةٌ and شَكْوَى, (MA, TA,) is said in relation to a disease, or sickness; (MA, K, TA;) meaning He (a diseased, or sick, person) complained of it, namely, his disease, or sickness; (MA; [accord. to the TK, followed in this case, as in many others, by Freytag, it means it (i. e. disease, or sickness,) afflicted him; which I think to be indubitably a mistake;]) and ↓ تشكّى and ↓ اشتكى signify the same [as شَكَا مَرَضَهُ he complained of his disease, or sickness]: (TA:) [or] these two verbs (تشكّى and اشتكى) signify [or signify also] he was, or became, diseased, or sick. (TA in additions at the end of this art.) One says also, ↓ اشتكى

عُضْوًا مِنْ أَعْضَائِهِ and ↓ تشكّى, both meaning the same [i. e., originally, He complained of a pain, or disease, in some one of his members; but generally meaning he had a complaint of, or a pain or a disease in, some one of his members; and شَكَا عُضْوًا not unfrequently occurs used in the same sense]: (S:) [thus one often says of a brute; for ex.,] As says, in explaining القُلَابُ as meaning “ a certain disease that attacks the camel,”

مِنْهُ قَلْبَهُ ↓ يَشْتَكِى [he has a pain in consequence thereof in his heart; in which قَلْبَهُ, though determinate, may be considered as an explicative, like بَطْنَهُ in the phrase أَلِمَ بَطْنَهُ, q. v.]. (S in art. قلب.) b4: One says also, هُوَ يُشْكَى بِكَذَا, meaning He is accused, or suspected, of such a thing; syn. يُتَّهَمُ بِهِ: (K: [there mentioned as though it were from أُشْكِىَ, and held to be so by the author of the TK; but it is from شُكِىَ; as though meaning he is complained of by reason of such a thing:]) mentioned by Yaakoob, in the “ Alfádh. ” (TA.) A2: شكى فُلَانٌ [thus in my original, app. شَكَا or شَكَى,] is mentioned by Az as meaning The nails of such a one became split in several, or many, places. (TA.) 2 شَكَّتِ النِّسَآءُ, inf. n. تَشْكِيَةٌ; and ↓ اشتكت; and ↓ تشكّت; (K;) or, accord. to Th, only this last; (TA;) The women took for themselves, or made, a شَكْوَة [q. v.] for the churning of milk; (K, TA;) because it was little in quantity; the شكوة being small, so that only a small quantity can be churned in it: (TA:) or, as in the T, شكّى and ↓ تشكّى he took for himself, or made, a شَكْوَة: (TA:) [or] so ↓ اشتكى: (S:) and so ↓ اشكى. (IKtt, TA.) A2: شَكَّى شَاكِيَهُ, inf. n. تَشْكِيَةٌ, expl. in the K as meaning كَفَّ عَنْهُ and طَيَّبَ نَفْسَهُ, is a foul mistranscription: correctly, سَلَّى شَاكِيَهُ, meaning “ He comforted his complainer, and consoled him for that which had befallen him; ” as in the Tekmileh. (TA.) 3 شاكاهُ, inf. n. مُشَاكَاةٌ, He complained of him, i. q. شَكَاهُ: or he told of his deceit, guile, or circumvention, and his vices, or faults. (TA.) 4 اشكاهُ [He made him, or caused him, to complain;] he did to him that which made him, or caused him, to have need to complain of him. (S, Msb.) He increased his annoyance and complaining. (Az, K, TA.) b2: And He removed, or did away with, his complaint; or made his complaint to cease; (S, * Mgh, Msb, K;) he caused him to be pleased or contented [and so relieved him from his complaint]; syn. أَعْتَبَهُ مِنْ شَكْوَاهُ; (S, and Har p. 337;) i. e. أَرْضَاهُ; (Har ibid.;) and he desisted from that of which he complained: (S, * Msb:) thus it has two contr. significations. (S, K.) Hence the saying, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) in a trad., (TA,) إِلَى رَسُولِ اللّٰهِ حَرَّ الرَّمْضَآءِ ↓ شَكَوْنَا فِى صِيَامِنَا فَلَمْ يُشْكِنَا [We complained, to the Apostle of God, of the heat of the burning ground, in our fasting,] and he did not remove, or cause to cease, our complaint. (Mgh, * Msb, TA.) And [hence] one says, اشكى فُلَانًا مِنْ فُلَانٍ, meaning He took for such a one, from such a one, what pleased or contented him [and so relieved him from complaining of him]. (ISd, K, TA: omitted in the CK.) b3: Also He told him his complaint, and the desire, or longing of the soul, that he endured. (TA.) b4: And i. q. وَجَدَهُ شَاكِيًا [which may mean He found him to be complaining, or, as seems to be indicated by what immediately precedes it in the K, he found him to be complaining of a disease of the slightest sort]: (K:) or, as in the T, اشكى [app. meaning اشكى حَبِيبَهُ] signifies he found the object of his love, or his friend, to be complaining; expl. by صَادَفَ حَبِيبَهُ يَشْكُو. (TA.) A2: See also 2.5 تشكّى He expressed complaint or lamentation, pain, grief, or sorrow; syn. تَوَجَّعَ; (Msb and K in art. وجع;) he made complaint or lamentation. (MA, KL.) See 1, in four places. b2: [Hence] one says, تشكّى شَآئِى أَرْضَ كَذَا, meaning (assumed tropical:) [My sheep or goats] forsook such a land, [as though they complained of it,] and did not go near it. (TA. [But I have substituted شَائِى for what is there written شاكى, an evident mistranscription.]) A2: See also 2, in two places.6 تَشَاكَوْا They complained, one to another. (K.) 8 إِ1ْتَ2َ3َ see 1, in nine places: A2: and see also 2, in two places.

شَكْوٌ inf. n. of شَكَا. (S, Msb.) b2: It is also used in the sense of وَجْدٌ [meaning Grief, mourning, or sorrow]. (TA.) b3: Also, and ↓ شَكْوَى, and ↓ شَكَاةٌ, and ↓ شَكَآءٌ, and ↓ شَكْوَآءُ, (K,) this last mentioned by Az, (TA,) [but it is omitted in some copies of the K,] A complaint, meaning a disease, malady, or sickness. (K.) A2: Also, the first, A small, or young, lamb: or a small, or young, camel: (K accord. to different copies: in some, الشَّكْوُ having for its explanation الحَمَلُ الصَّغِيرُ, and thus in the TA: in others, الجَمَلُ الصغير:) mentioned by ISd. (TA.) شَكَاةٌ an inf. n. of شَكَا; (S, K;) or a simple subst., like شَكْوَى. (Msb.) b2: See also شَكْوٌ. b3: Also i. q. عَيْبٌ [A vice, fault, &c.]. (TA.) [See a verse cited voce رِفَاقٌ.]

شَكْوَةٌ The skin of a sucking kid, (T, * S, M, *) for milk: that of the جَذَع and of such as is above that [in age] is termed وَطْبٌ; (S;) or that of the جَذَع is termed سِقَآءٌ; and that of such as is weaned, بَدْرَةٌ: (T, TA:) or a receptacle of skin or leather, for water and for milk, (K, TA,) or, as some say, in which water is cooled and in which milk is kept close: (TA:) or a small skin for water or milk: or a small receptacle in which water is put: (Er-Rághib, TA:) the dim. is ↓ شُكَيَّةٌ: (TA:) and the pl. is شَكَوَاتٌ and شِكَآءٌ (K, TA) and شُكِىٌّ [like as بُدُورٌ is a pl. of بَدْرَةٌ, being originally شُكُووٌ, like as دُلِىٌّ (pl. of دَلْوٌ) is originally دُلُووٌ]. (TA.) شَكْوَى an inf. n. of شَكَا, as also شَكْوًى; (K;) or a simple subst. [signifying Complaint]: (S, Msb:) pl. شَكَاوَى. (TA.) b2: See also شَكْوٌ.

شَكْوَآءُ: see شَكْوٌ.

شَكَآءٌ: see شَكْوٌ.

شَكِىٌّ i. q. ↓ شَاكٍ [i. e. Complaining]; (Msb;) [or a complainer; i. e.] الشَّكِىُّ signifies اَلَّذِى

يَشْتَكِى, (S,) or الذى يَشْكُو. (JM.) b2: and Pained; syn. مُوجَعٌ; (K, TA;) in this sense an instance of فَعِيلٌ in the sense of مَفْعُولٌ: (TA:) or causing pain; syn. مُوجِعٌ: [thus accord. to both of my copies of the S: and this appears to be correct; for it is there immediately added,] El-Tirimmáh says, وَسْمِى شَكِىٌّ وَلِسَانِى عَارِمُ [which is inconsiderately cited in the TA immediately after the former of these two explanations: I say “ inconsiderately ” because the meaning evidently is, not that thus indicated in the TA, but, My branding, or stigmatizing, by satire, (for one says وَسَمَهُ بِالهِجَآءِ,) is such as causes pain, and my tongue is vehement: or شَكِىٌّ may here have the last but one of the meanings expl. in this paragraph]: وَسْمِى is from السِّمَةُ. (S.) b3: Also Affected with a complaint, meaning disease, malady, or sickness, [app. in an absolute sense, (see شَكْوٌ,) and also] of the least, or lightest, or slightest, sort; and so ↓ شَاكٍ. (M, K.) b4: and i. q. ↓ مَشْكُوٌّ, (S, Msb, K,) which is a pass. part. n. of شَكَا; [and therefore signifies Complained of; and also complained to; but mostly seems to be used in the former of these senses;] as also ↓ مَشْكِىٌّ. (S, Msb.) شِكَايَةٌ an inf. n. of شَكَا; (S, K:) or a simple subst., like شَكْوَى. (Msb.) شَكِيَّةٌ an inf. n. of شَكَا. (S, K.) b2: And also (TA) a subst. signifying A thing complained of (اِسْمٌ لِمَشْكُوٍّ); like رَمِيَّةٌ a subst. signifying “ a thing cast at or shot at ” (اِسْمٌ لِمَرْمِيٍّ): (Msb, TA:) pl. شَكَايَا. (TA.) A2: Also A remainder, or remaining portion, (K and TA in art. شكى,) of a thing: mentioned by Sgh. (TA.) شُكَيَّةٌ dim. of شَكْوَةٌ, q. v. (TA.) شَكِّىٌّ, (thus in copies of the K,) or شُكِّىٌّ, with damm to the ش, (TA,) is mentioned in art. شك.

[q. v.], and J has committed a mistake (K, TA) in mentioning it here, as Sgh has observed: (TA:) [accord. to F, it seems to be a rel. n. applied to a bit, or bridle; for it is said to be so applied in the K, as well as in the O, in art. شك, in which both explain it as meaning Difficult; and also to a skin; for immediately after asserting that J has committed a mistake, F adds,] and شَكَّى, like حَتَّى, is a town in Armenia, whence [are brought] bits, or bridles, (لُجُم,) and skins, (K,) [and SM adds that they are termed شكّيّة: but what I find J to have stated is as follows:] الشَّكِىُّ, [thus in one of my copies of the S,] or الشُكِى, [thus in the other of those copies,] in relation to weapons, is an arabicized word, and is in Turkish لَش or لَشْ. (S. [But in the JM, this last word is written, as from the S, تشن: it may therefore be correctly لَشْن, or لَشِن, which, though used in Turkish, is a Pers\. word, meaning smooth.]) شَاكٍ: see شَكِىٌّ, in two places.

A2: In the phrase رَجُلٌ شَاكِى السِّلَاحِ, (S,) which means A man whose weapon is sharp, or whose weapons are sharp, (S, K, *) Akh says that شاكى is formed by transposition from شَائِك [q. v. in art. شوك]: (S:) and accord. to Az, one says also شَاكٍ فِى

السِّلاحِ. (TA in art. شوك.) b2: And الشَّاكِى [is app. formed in like manner from الشَّائِكُ, and] signifies The lion. (K.) مِشْكَاةٌ A niche in a wall; i. e. a hole, or hollow, (كُوَّةٌ,) in a wall, not extending through; (Fr, S, M, K, &c.;) in which a lamp, placed therein, gives more light than it does elsewhere: thus expl: by the generality of the expositors [of the Kur-án]; and this is said by Ibn-' Ateeyeh to be the most correct explanation: (TA:) said by Aboo-Moosà to mean the iron, or leaden, thing in which is the wick [of the lamp]: thought by Az to mean the tube which is the place of the wick in the glass lamp, as being likened to the كُوَّة which is thus called: (TA:) some expl. it as having this meaning in the Kur xxiv. 35, and say that the مِصْبَاح there mentioned is the lighted wick: (Bd:) accord. to Mujáhid, the pillar, or the like, (العَمُود,) upon the top, or head, of which the مِصْبَاح [meaning lamp] is put: or the iron things by means of which the قِنْدِيل [or lamp] is suspended: IJ says that its ا is originally و, and hence it is [often] written مِشْكٰوةٌ: and Zj says that it is an Abyssinian word, and used in the language of the Arabs: (TA:) [the pl. is مَشَاكٍ, like مَسَاحٍ pl. of مِسْحَاةٌ:] Kaab says that, in the verse of the Kur [xxiv. 35], by the مِشْكَاة is meant the breast of Mohammad; and by the مِصْبَاح, his tongue; and by the زُجَاجَة, his mouth. (TA.) مَشْكُوٌّ and مَشْكِىٌّ: see شَكِىٌّ, last sentence.
