(Sgh, K.) b2: See also 5.2 جَرَّعَ [جرّعهُ المَآءَ He made him to swallow the water.] تَجْرِيعٌ is The pouring beverage into the throat against one's will: but sometimes it is used of that which is not against one's will. (Har p. 115.) And جرّعهُ signifies He gave him to drink gulp after gulp, or sup after sup, or sip after sip.

(TA.) b2: [And hence,] تجرّع (S, Msb, K *) (tropical:) He repressed, or restrained, choking wrath, or rage; (S;) as though he swallowed it: (Msb:) and [in like manner] you say also, ↓ جَرِعَ الغَيْظَ (tropical:) he repressed, or restrained, wrath, or rage. (TA.) 8 إِجْتَرَعَ see 1.

جَرَعٌ A twisting in one of the strands of a rope, (S, K,) or of a bow-string, (K,) so that it appears above the other strands. (S, K.) [It is app. an inf. n., of which the verb, if it have one, is جَرِعَ.]

A2: See also جَرَعَةٌ.

جَرِعٌ A rope, (K,) or a bow-string, (TA,) having the twisting termed جَرَعٌ in one of its strands; as also ↓ مُجَرَّعٌ: (K:) or, accord. to IAar, a bow-string that is even, except that there is a prominence in one part of it, wherefore it is rubbed and pulled with a piece of a كِسَآء [q. v.] until that prominence disappears: and ↓ the latter, accord. to ISh, a bow-string not uniformly nor well twisted, having in it prominences, so that one of its strands appears above the others, or some appear above others. (TA.) جَرْعَةٌ: see what next follows, in three places: A2: and see جَرَعَةٌ, in two places.

جُرْعَةٌ A gulp, or as much as is swallowed at once, of water; a جُرْعَة of water being like a لُقْمَة of food: (Msb:) or a sup, or sip; or as much as is supped, or sipped, at once; or a mouthful of what is supped, or sipped; (syn. حُسْوَةٌ;) of water; (S, K;) as also ↓ جَرْعَةٌ and ↓ جِرْعَةٌ: or جُرْعَةٌ and ↓ جَرْعَةٌ are substs.

(Msb, TA.) The dim. is ↓ جُرَيْعَةٌ. (S, K.) And hence the prov., أَــفْلَتَ فُلَانٌ جُرَيْعَةَ الذَّقَنِ, (Sgh, K,) the verb being intrans., and جريعة being in the accus. case as a denotative of state, as though the speaker said, أَــفْلَتَ قَاذِفًا جُرَيْعَةَ الذَّقَنِ; (Sgh;) or بِجُرَيْعَةِ الذَّقَنِ; (S, K;) or ↓ بِجُرَيْعَآئِهَا; (K;) Such a one escaped [from destruction] when his spirit, or the remains thereof, had become in his mouth; (L, K;) or near thereto, (K,) as a sup [or little sup] of water to the chin [of a person drinking]; (TA;) or when death was as near to him as a little sup of water to the chin; (L;) or when at his last gasp: (Fr, S:) applied to one who has been at the point of destruction, and then escaped: (S:) or, accord. to Az, it is thus; أَــفْلَتَــنِى جُرَيْعَةَ الذَّقَنِ, which may mean he made me to escape &c., or he escaped from me &c.; in the latter case, افلتــنى being for أَــفْلَتَ مِنِّى; and [it is said that] جريعة is prefixed to الذقن because the motion of the chin indicates the nearness of the departure of the soul: or the meaning of the words related by Az may be, he made me, i. e. the remains of my soul, to escape; the last two words being a substitute for the pronoun affixed to the verb. (Sgh.) One says also, أَــفْلَتَــنَىِ جُرَيْعَةَ الرِّيقِ, meaning He outwent me, [or escaped me,] and I swallowed my spittle in wrath, or rage, against him. (TA.) And مَا مِنْ جُرْعَةٍ أَحْمَدُ عُقْبَانًا مِنْ جُرْعَةِ غَيْظٍ نَكْظِمُهَا (tropical:) [There is nothing that is swallowed more praiseworthy in its result than what is swallowed of wrath, or rage, which we repress, or restrain].

[of pauc.] is أَجْرَاعٌ and [of mult.] جِرَاعٌ: the pl. of جَرَعَةٌ is جِرْعَانٌ: and the pl. of ↓ جَرْعَةٌ is جِرَاعٌ: and the pl. of ↓ جِرِعاء is جَرْعَاوَاتٌ: and the pl. of ↓ اجرع is أَجَارِعُ.

(TA.) مُجَرَّعٌ: see جَرِعٌ, in two places.

سِفِلَةٌ see سَفِلٌ.

سُفْلِىُّ [Of, or relating to, the lowest, or lower, part or place;] a rel. n. from سُفْلٌ. (TA.) [Hence, the pl.] سُفْليُّونَ means Persons alighting, or abiding, in the lowest, or lower, parts of a country: opposed to عَليُّونَ (TA in art. علو.) b2: It is also opposed to عَلِىٌّ [in relation to condition]: whence the saying, مَنْ يَرْحَمِ السُّفْلِىَّ يَرْحَمْهُ العَلِىُّ (assumed tropical:) He who has mercy on the low in condition, on him will the high in condition have mercy].

See also سَفِلٌ: and see an ex. voce أَسْفَلُ سَافِلَةٌ: see سُفْلٌ. b2: [Hence,] سَافِلَةُ الرُّمْحِ half that is next to the زُجّ [or pointed iron shoe, or foot,] of the spear: (M, K:) [opposed to عَالِيَتُهُ.] b3: And السَّافِلَةُ The bottom, podex, posteriors, or buttocks; and the anus; syn. المَقْعَدَةُ, (S,) and الدُّبُرُ; (TA;) as also ↓ السَّفِلَةُ; syn. الدُّبُرُ.

And it is said in the Kur [viii. 43], والرَّكْبُ أَسْفَلَ مِنْكُمْ The caravan being in a place lower than ye; اسفل being here an adv. n.: or, as some read, أَسْفَلُ مِنْكُمْ, i. e. being lower than ye. (M.) b2: ↓ ثُمَّ رَدَدْنَاهُ أَسْفَلَ سَافِلِينَ, in the Kur [xcv. 5], means (assumed tropical:) [Then we rendered him the lowest of low: or] we reduced him to extreme old age, or decrepitude: or to a state of perishing, or passing away: or to a state of error; relating to him who has disbelieved; (M, K;) for every infant is born of the natural constitution with which he is created in his mother's womb, and he who disbelieves and errs is reduced to this state: (M:) or the meaning is, we have made him to be of the people of the fire [of Hell]: or [we have made him to go down] to the fire [of Hell]. (Bd.) b3: سُفْلَي مُضَرَ [The lower of Mudar] is said to denote those of Mudar with the exception of Kureysh and Keys: opposed to عُلْيَامُضَرَ. (TA in art. علو.) b4: See also سُفْلٌ. b5: The pl. أَسَافِلُ means The lower, or lowest, parts of valleys [&c.]. (TA.)

(TA.) See also 3, in five places.

[See 4 in art. عور.]) A4: And اعارهُ is also said to signify He fattened him; namely, a horse: b2: and He plucked out the hair of his tail; like

أَعْرَاهُ: both of which meanings are mentioned by IKtt and others: b3: and i. q. ضَمَّرَهُ [He made him lean, or light of flesh, &c.]; from عَارَ “ he went and came. ” (TA.) 5 هُمْ يَتَعَيَّرُونَ مِنْ جِيرَانِهِمُ الأَمْتِعَةَ is said to mean يَسْتَعِيرُونَ [i. e.

(S, O, K.) عَيْرٌ The ass; (S, O, Msb, K;) both the wild and the domestic; (S, O, Msb;) its predominant application is to the former: (K:) so called because he goes away hither and thither (يَعِيرُ فَيَتَرَدَّدُ) in the desert: (TA:) fem. with ة: (S, Msb:) pl.

(A 'Obeyd.) b3: You say also, of a place in which is no good, هُوَ كَجَوْفِ عَيْرٍ [It is like the belly of an ass], (S, TA,) or كجوف العَيْرِ [like the belly of the ass]; (TA;) because there is nothing in his belly of which any use is made: (S, TA:) or this originated from the saying هُوَ أَخْلَى مِنْ جَوْفِ حِمَارٍ [It is more empty than the valley of Himar]; (S, O, * TA;) for حمار was the name of a certain unbeliever, who possessed a valley, which for his infidelity, God rendered waste and unproductive; (O, * TA;) and Imra-el-Keys, (O, TA,) as some say, but correctly Taäbbata-sharrà, (O,) quoting the above-mentioned saying, has substituted العير for حمار, for the sake of the metre. (O, TA.) b4: One says also أَذَلُّ مِنَ العَيْرِ More vile than the ass. (TA.) [But this is doubtful: see the same phrase expl. differently later in this paragraph. The wild ass is superior to every other kind of animal that is an object of the chase: (see فَرَأٌ:) and hence, app., the signification here next following.] b5: عَيْرٌ also signifies A lord, or chief, (S, O, K,) of a people: (S, O:) a king: (K:) pl. أَعْيَارٌ. (O.) b6: The saying (S, K) of the people of Syria, used by them proverbially, (TA,) عَيْرٌ بِعَيْرٍ وَزِيَادَةُ عَشَرَةٍ [A lord for a lord, or a lord is succeeded by a lord, and an increase of ten] is expl. by the fact that, when the Khaleefeh of the sons of Umeiyeh died, and another arose, he increased their stipends by ten dirhems: (S, O, K:) so they said thus on that occasion. (O, TA.) b7: عَيْرُ السَّرَاةِ is an appellation of A certain bird, (S, O, K, TA,) resembling the pigeon, (S, O, TA,) short in the legs, which are coved with feathers, yellow in the legs and bill, having the eye bordered with black, of a clear colour inclining to greenness, or dark dust-colour, (خُضْرَة,) yellow in the belly and the part beneath its wings and the inner part of its tail; as though it were a variegated بُرْد: pl. عُيُورُ السَّرَاةِ: السَّرَاةُ being a place in the district of Et-Táïf: they assert that this bird eats three hundred figs, from the time of their coming forth from among the leaves, small; and in like manner, grapes.

[In the K, it is expl. simply by العَظْمُ النَّاتِئُ وَسَطَهَا: but this is a wrong reading, app. occasioned by an omission, which is supplied in the TA, though somewhat awkwardly: it seems that we should read وَمِنَ الكَفِّ العَظْمُ النَّتِئُ وَسَطَهَا; or, more probably, ومن الكَتِفِ الخ; for I incline to think that الكفّ in the TA is a mistake for الكتف, and that the last signification of عير, given here, is doubtful.] b5: The prominence, or protuberance, in the upper, or convex, part, or back, of the foot. (S, O, TA.) b6: Any prominent, or protuberant, bone in the body. (TA.) b7: An edge, or a ridge, of a rock, naturally prominent. (TA.) b8: Anything prominent, or protuberant, in an even thing, (K,) or in the middle of an even thing [or surface].

[So called because it forms a kind of ridge.] b10: The prominent, or protuberant, part at the pupil (بُؤْبُؤ) of the eye: (AA, TA:) or the lid of the eye: (S, O, K:) or the inner angle [ for مَأٰقِى, in the CK, I read مَأْقَى, as in other copies of the K,] of the eye: (Th, K:) or the image that is seen in the black of the eye when a thing faces it; (Aboo-Tálib, L, K; *) also called لُعْبَةٌ: (Aboo-Tálib, L:) or the eye-ball: (TA:) or a looking from the outer angle (لَحْظ [or perhaps this signifies here the outer angle itself]) of the eye. (K.) Hence the saying, (S, O,) فَعَلْتُ ذَاكَ قَبْلَ عَيْرٍ وَمَا جَرَى I did that before a look from the outer angle of the eye: (S, O, K: *) or before he winked [or could wink]; عير meaning the “ image that is seen in the black of the eye; ” and ما جرى, “what moved,” i. e., “the eye itself: ” (Aboo-Tálib:) or before I looked [or could look] at thee; not used with a negative: (Th:) nor do you say أَفْعَلُ ذاك [instead of فعلت ذاك in this phrase]: (A O, S:) or عير here signifies the wild ass. (Lh.) You say also أَتَيْتُكَ قَبْلَ عَيْرٍ وَمَا جَرَى, meaning I came to thee before a sleeper awoke [or could awake]. (AA, TA.) b11: The وَتِد [or tragus] which is in the inner part of the ear: (S:) [see وَتِدٌ:] or the part of the interior of the ear which is below the فَرْع [or upper portion thereof], (K,) in a man and in a horse, like the عَيْر [of the head] of an arrow: (TA:) or the عَيْرَانِ are the مَتْنَانِ [app. meaning the two backs, though the word may have some other application in this case,] of the two ears of a horse: pl. عِيَارٌ. (TA.) A3: A wooden pin, peg, or stake, which is fixed in the ground or in a wall. (S, O, K.) Hence, as some say, the prov. فُلَانٌ أَذَلُّ مِنَ العَيْرِ [Such a one is more vile than the wooden pin, or peg, of a tent &c.]. (TA.) [See another explanation above: and see also مَذَلَّةٌ.] Hence also, accord. to some, (TA,) one says, مَا أَدْرِى أَىُّ مَنْ ضَرَبَ العَيْرَ هُوَ, meaning I known not what one of mankind is he. (Yaakoob, S, O, K, TA.) and hence too, as some say, the saying of El-Hárith Ibn-Hillizeh, (O, TA,) زَعَمُوا أَنَّ كُلَّ مَنْ ضَرَبَ العَيْ رَ مَوَالٍ لَنَا وَأَنَّا الوَلَآءُ of which Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà said that he had passed away, or died, who knew the meaning of this verse, (S, O, TA,) and which is differently related, some saying مَوَالٍ لَهَا, and some saying الوِلَآءُ: (TA:) but various meanings are assigned to العير in this instance; and some expl. it as a proper name: (O, TA:) and some, relating this verse, say العِيرَ [q. v.]: (TA:) [the following explanation of the verse has been given as preferable to others:] They (the Arákim, mentioned two verses before,) have asserted that all who have hunted the wild ass are the sons of our paternal uncles, and that we are the relations of them; الولآء being for أَصْحَابُ وَلَائِهِمْ: meaning that we are responsible for their crimes, or offences, as though we were their heirs. (EM p. 261.) A4: Also A certain piece of wood which is in the fore part of the [vehicle called] هَوْدَج. (O, K.) A5: And A drum. (O, K.) And so, as some say, in the verse cited above. (O, TA.) A6: And A mountain. (K.) And also the name of A mountain of El-Medeeneh: (K, TA:) and, as some say, of a mountain of Mekkeh. (TA.) A7: And الأَعْيَارُ (of which the sing. is العَيْرُ, TA) is a name of Certain bright stars in the track of the feet of سُهَيْل [or Canopus]. (O, K.) عِيرٌ A caravan; syn. قَافِلَةٌ; of the fem. gen.: (K:) from عَارَ “ he journeyed: ” (TA:) or camels that carry provision of corn: (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K:) then generally applied to any caravan: (Mgh, Msb:) or a caravan of asses; and then extended to any caravan; as though pl. of عَيْرٌ, being originally and regularly of the measure فُعُلٌ, [i. e.

عُيُرٌ,] like سُقُفٌ as pl. of سَقْفٌ; (TA;) but it has no proper sing.: (K:) or any beasts upon which provision of corn is brought, whether camels or asses or mules: (K:) the عير mentioned in the Kur xii. 94 consisted of asses; and the assertion of him who says that عير is applied specially to camels is false: (AHeyth, O, TA:) Nuseyr cites the poet Aboo-'Amr El-Asadee as applying this appellation to asses; and says that camels are not so called unless employed for bringing provision of corn: (AHeyth, TA:) IAar says that it is applied to camels bearing burdens, and not bearing burdens: (Az:) but camels are not thus called that bring corn for their owners: (TA, voce رِكَاب:) pl. عِيَرَاتٌ, (O, K,) with ا and ت because it is of the fem. gender, and, being a subst., with the ى movent, accord. to the dial. of Hudheyl, for they say جَوْزَاتٌ and بَيْضَاتٌ; (Sb;) and عِيْرَاتٌ (S, K) is allowable, (S,) and is the regular form, and occurs in a trad., meaning horses or the like, and camels carrying merchandise. (TA.) عَيْرَانٌ applied to a he-camel, (O,) and عَيْرَانَةٌ applied to a she-camel, (S, O, K,) Resembling the [wild] ass (العَيْر) in quickness and briskness: (S, O:) or the latter, swift, with briskness; (K, TA;) so termed because of her frequent going round about [or to and fro], rather than as being likened to the [wild] ass: and also hard, or hardy. (TA.) عِيرَانٌ: see عَائِرٌ in art. عور.

عِيَارٌ and ↓ مِعْيَارٌ are syn.; (S;) both signify [A standard of measure or weight;] a thing with which another thing is measured, or compared, and equalized; (Mgh;) [and with which it is assayed:] or a thing with which measures of capacity are measured, compared, or equalized: (Lth:) the عِيَار of a thing is that which is made, or appointed, a standard thereof, by which to regulate or adjust it; expl. by مَا جُعِلَ نِظَامًا لَهُ. (Msb.) b2: The عِيَار of dirhems, and of deenárs, is [The rate, or standard, of fineness;] the quantity of pure silver, and of pure gold, that is put into them. (Mgh.) A2: [See also 1.]

عِيَارَةٌ Currency of a poem. (K.) عُيَيْرٌ [dim. of عَيْرٌ]. You say, فُلَانٌ عُيَيْرُ وَحْدِهِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is a person who is pleased with his own opinion; (S, O, K;) an expression of dispraise; (S;) like as نَسِيجُ وَحْدِهِ is one of praise: (TA:) or a person who does not consult others, nor mix with them, yet in whom is ignobleness and weakness; as also جُحَيْشُ وَحْدِهِ [q. v.]: (Az:) or a person who eats by himself. (Th, K.) Youmay also say عِيَيْرٌ, like شِيَيْخٌ for شُيَيْخٌ; but you should not say عُوَيْر, nor شُوَيْخ. (S, O.) عَيِّرٌ: see عَائِرٌ.

عَيَّارٌ: see the next paragraph, in five places.

عَائِرٌ That goes to and fro, and round about; as also ↓ عَيَّارٌ: both are applied [to a man and] also to a dog: (TA:) and ↓ the latter is also expl. as follows: a man (TA) often coming and going (K, TA) in the land: (TA:) often going round about, (Fr, S, Msb, K,) often in motion, (Fr, S, Msb,) and sharp, or quick, of intellect: (S, K:) it is used as an epithet of praise and as one of dispraise: for instance, applied to a boy, it signifies brisk in obeying God, and brisk in acts of disobedience: (IAar:) and ↓ عَيِّرٌ, applied to a horse, signifies brisk, lively, or sprightly: (IAar:) and ↓ عَيَّارٌ, so applied, mischievous; and that is brisk, lively, or sprightly, so that he goes on one side of the way, and then turns to the other side: (TA:) and, applied to a man, that goes to and fro without work: (Ajnás en-Nátifee, Mgh:) or that leaves himself to follow his natural desire, not restraining himself. (IAmb, Mgh, Msb.) It is said in a prov., كَلْبٌ عَائِرٌ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَسَدٍ رَابِضٍ A dog going to and fro and round about is better [as a guard] than a lion lying down. (TA.) You say also شَاةٌ عَائِرَةٌ A sheep that goes to and fro between two flocks, not knowing which of them to follow: to such is a hypocrite likened. (TA.) And نَاقَةٌ عَائِرَةٌ A she-camel that goes forth from the other camels in order that the stallion may cover her (S, O, TA.) And جَمَلٌ عَائِرٌ A he-camel that leaves the females seven months gone with young, and goes to others. (S.) And بأَوْصَالٍ ↓ عَيَّارٌ A horse that goes away hither and thither, by reason of his sprightliness: (S, O:) or a lion that goes away with the joints, or whole bones. of men to his thicket. (IB.) ↓ العَيَّارُ is an appellation given to The lion, (S, O, K,) because of his coming and going in search of his prey. (S, O.) b2: قَصِيدَةٌ عَائِرَةٌ (assumed tropical:) An ode having currency. (O.) b3: سَهْمٌ An arrow from an unknown shouter. (Msb. [Mentioned also in art. عور.]) And ثَمَرَةٌ عَائِرَةٌ A fallen fruit, of which the owner is not known (TA.) A2: عَائِرُ العَيْنِ, and عَائِرَةُ عَيْنٍ or عَيْنَيْنِ, &c.: see art. عور.

مَا قَالَتِ العَرَبُ بَيْتًا أَعْيَرَ مِنْهُ The Arabs have not uttered a verse more current than it. (A, O, TA.) مُعَارٌ A horse, (S, K,) and a dog, (K.) made to go away as though he had escaped. or got loose: (K:) or made to escape: (TA:) or made to escape, or get loose, and go away hither and thither, by reason of his exceeding sprightliness. (S.) It is also expl. as signifying, applied to a horse, Fattened: and having the hair of is tail plucked out: these two explanations mentioned by IKtt and others: and made lean, or light of flesh. (TA. [See 4, last sentence.]) See also the next paragraph.

مِعَارٌ, (O, K,) as though originally مِعْيَرٌ, from عَارَ, aor. ـِ (Az, O,) A horse that turns away from the road with his rider. (O, K.) Hence the saying of Bishr Ibn-Abee-Házim, (K,) or Kházim, as written by Sgh, (TA,) not Et-Tirimmáh, J having made a mistake [in ascribing it to him (but in one of my copies of the S it is ascribed to Bishr Ibn-Abee-Házim and in the other to a poet unnamed)], أَحَقُّ الخَيْلِ بِالرَّكْضِ المِعَارُ [The most deserving, of horses, of being urged to run by the striking with the foot is he that turns away from the road with his rider]. (K.) Aboo-'Obeyd, (so in my copies of the S,) or Aboo-'Obeydeh, (so in the K and TA,) says that the people, in relating this, say ↓ المُعَارُ, [deriving it] from العَارِيَّة; which is a mistake: (S, K, TA:) the truth being that this is a mistake as to the damm and the derivation; which is the saying of IAar alone, and is mentioned by IB also: (TA:) or the last word is المُغَارُ. (TA in art. غور, q. v.) نَصْلٌ مُعْيَرٌ An iron head or blade, of an arrow or of a spear or of a sword or of a knife or the like, having what is termed عَيْرٌ. (AHn, from AA.) And كَفٌّ مُعْيِرَةٌ, and ↓ مُعَيِّرَةٌ, [so in the TA, but more probably مُعْيَرَةٌ and مُعَيَّرَةٌ,] A كَفّ [or hand] having what is so termed. (TA. [But I think that كَفٌّ is here a mistranscription for كَتِفٌ: see عَيْرٌ.]) اِبْنَةُ مِعْيَرٍ Calamity, (K, TA,) and hardship. (TA.) And بَنَاتُ مِعْيَرٍ Calamities. (S, O, TA,) and hardships. (TA.) مُعْيَرَةٌ, and the pl. مَعَايِرٌ: see عَارٌ كَفٌّ مُعَيَّرَةٌ [or كَتِفٌ?]: see مُعْيَرٌ.

مِعْيَارٌ: see عِيَارٌ.

مَعْيُورَى and مَعْيُورَآءُ: see عَيْرٌ, first sentence.

موت

1 مَاتَ, aor. ـُ (inf. n. مَوْتٌ; Msb,) and مَاتَ, (originally مَوِتَ, like خَافَ, originally خَوِفَ, MF) [sec. per. مِتَّ,] aor. ـَ (S, K,) which latter is of the dial. of Teiyi; (TA;) and مَاتَ, (in which the medial radical letter is originally ى, like بَاعَ, MF) aor. ـِ (K,) a form which some have disapproved; (MF;) and مَاتَ, (originally مَوِتَ, Kr,) sec. Pers\. مِتَّ, aor. ـُ like دَامَ, (originally دَوِمَ, Kr,) aor. ـُ (Kr, Msb, &c.,) and like the sound verbs نَعِمَ, aor. ـْ and فَضِلَ, aor. ـْ (TA,) of the class of words in which two dial. forms are intermixed; (Msb;) He died; contr. of حَيِى. (K,) b2: [مَاتَ عَنْ بَنِينَ وَبَنَاتٍ He died having passed away from, i. e. leaving behind him, sons and daughters. And مَاتَ عَنْ ثَمَانِينَ سَنًة He died having passed beyond eighty years; i. e. being eighty years old.] b3: اللَّبَنُ لَا يَمُوتُ [The milk will not die], in a saying of 'Omar, in a trad., means, that if a child sucks the milk of a dead woman, it becomes unlawful for him afterwards to marry any of her relations who would be unlawful to him if he sucked her milk while she was living: or it means, that, if milk taken from the breast of a woman is given to a child to drink, and he drinks it, the consequence is the same; that the effect of the milk in producing this consequence is not annulled by its separation from the breast; for whatever is separated from a living being is termed ميت, or dead, except the milk and hair and wool on account of the necessity of making use of these. (TA.) b4: مَاتَتِ الأَرْضُ, inf. n. مَوَتَانٌ and مَوَاتٌ, (tropical:) The land became destitute of cultivation and of inhabitants.

Hence an expression in the Kur, vi. 122; and another in the Kur, xxvii. 82; and xxx. 51. (Az, Er-Rághib.) b8: مَاتَ (tropical:) [He became as though dead with grief, or sorrow, and fear;] he experienced grief, or sorrow, and fear, that disturbed his life. Hence what is said in the Kur, xiv. 20. (Az, Er-Rághib.) b9: مَاتَ (tropical:) He or it, was or became, still, quiet, or motionless. (K.) b10: ماتَتِ الرِّيح (tropical:) The wind became still, or calm. (TA.) b11: مَاتَ (tropical:) He slept.

(TA.) b24: مَاتَ (assumed tropical:) He (a man) became lowly, humble, or submissive, to the truth. (TA.) 2 مَوَّتَتِ الدَّوَابُّ The beasts of carriage died in great numbers; or deaths amongst them were frequent.

(K.) b6: مَا أَمْوَتَهُ signifies مَا أَمْوَتَ قَلْبَهُ [(tropical:) How dead is his heart !] for one does not wonder at any action that does not increase: (S, K:) therefore what is here meant is not literally death. (TA.) b7: اماتهُ (tropical:) He (God) rendered him poor; reduced him to poverty. (TA, from a trad.) b8: اماتهُ (tropical:) He [or it] caused him to sleep. Ex., in a prayer said on awaking, الحَمْدُ لِلّٰهِ الَّذِى أَحْيَانَا بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَنَا Praise be to God who hath awaked us after having caused us to sleep ! (L.) b9: يُمِيتُ اللَّيْلَ (assumed tropical:) He sleeps during the night.

مَوْتٌ (and ↓ مَوَتَانٌ, TA,) Death; lifelessness; contr. of حَيَاةٌ: (S, TA:) as also ↓ مُوَاتٌ, (S, K,) and ↓ مَمَاتٌ. [Occurring in the Kur, vi. 163, xvii. 77, and xlv. 20,] (S, * TA, in art. حى, and Jel, in vi. 163.) [See also مُوتَانٌ, below: and see 1.] Or ↓ مَوَتَانٌ, signifies much death, like as حَيَوَانٌ signifies much life. (Msb, in art. حى.) b2: المَوْتُ الأَبْيَضُ, and الجَارِفُ, and اللَّافِتُ, and الفَاتِلُ, Sudden death. (IAar, in T and TA, art. فلت.) b3: المَوْتُ الأَحْمَرُ Death by slaughter with the sword.

(S.) [See هُمْزٌ.]

مِيتَةٌ A kind, mode, or manner, of death: (S, K:) pl. مِيَتٌ. (TA.) b2: مَاتَ فُلَانٌ مِيتَةً

حَسَنَةً Such a one died a good kind of death. (S.) b3: مَاتَ مِيتَةً جَاهِلِيَّةً He died a pagan kind of death, in error and disunion. (TA, from a trad.) مَوْتَانُ الفُؤَادِ (tropical:) A man who is [dead, or] not lively, in heart: (A:) a man who is stupid, dull, unexcitable, or not to be rendered brisk, sprightly, or lively; (S,. K;) as though the heat of his intelligence had cooled and died: (TA:) fem. with ة. (S, K.) b2: See مُوتَانٌ and مَوَاتٌ.

مُوتَانٌ (Fr, S, K) and ↓ مَوْتَانٌ (K) and ↓ مُوَاتٌ (Fr) Death, [or a mortal disease, or a murrain,] that befalls camels or sheep or the like. (Fr, S, K.)

(Fr.) b3: Also, The like among men. Ex., from a trad., يَكُونُ فِى النَّاسِ مُوتَانٌ كَقُعَاصِ الغَنَمِ There will be, among men, a mortality, or much death, [or mortal disease], like the قُعَاص that befalls sheep or goats. (TA.) مَوَتَانٌ (assumed tropical:) Inanimate things, or goods; dead stock; such as lands and houses [&c.]; (S;) contr. of حَيَوَانٌ [q. v.] (S, K.) It is made of this measure to agree in measure with its contr.

حيوان: both these words deviate from the constant course of speech; being of a measure properly belonging to inf. ns. (TA.) [See also مَوَاتٌ.] b2: إِشْتَرِ المَوَتَانَ وَلا تَشْتَرِ الحَيَوَانَ Buy lands and houses [or the like], and buy not slaves and beasts of carriage [&c.]. (S.) b3: رَجُلٌ يَبِيعُ المَوَتَانَ A man who sells utensils or furniture or the like, and anything but what has life. (L.) b4: See also مَوْتٌ.

مَوَاتٌ That wherein is no spirit or life; an inanimate thing. (S, K.) [See also مَوَتَانٌ.]

b2: مَوَاتٌ (you say أَرْضٌ مَوَاتٌ, TA,) (tropical:) Land that has no owner (S, K) of mankind, and of which no use is made, or from which no advantage is derived, (S,) and in which is no water: such as is also called ↓ أَرْضٌ مَيْتَةٌ: (En-Nawawee:) land that has not been sown, nor cultivated, nor occupied by any man's camels

&c.: ↓ مَوَتَانٌ signifies the same as مُوَاتٌ (مَوَاتٌ?), namely, land that is no man's property; and is also written مَوْتَانٌ: (L:) or مَوَتَانٌ signifies land that has not yet been brought into a state of cultivation: (Fr, S, L, K:) in a trad. it is said, that such land is the property of God and his Apostle; and whosoever brings into a state of cultivation such land, to him it belongs. (S.) مُوَاتٌ: see مَوْتٌ and مُوتَانٌ.

مَيِّتٌ and ↓ مَيْتٌ signify the same, [Dead, or dying]: (Zj, S, K:) the former is originally مَيْوِتٌ, of the measure فَيْعِلٌ: (S:) the latter is contracted from the former; and is both masc. and fem.; (Zj, S;) as is also the former. (Zj.) 'Adee Ibn-Er-Raalà says, ↓ لَيْسَ مَنْ مَاتَ فَاسْتَرَاحَ بِمَيْتٍ

إِنَّمَا المَيْتُ مَيِّتُ الأَحْيَآءِ [He who has died and become at rest is not dead: the dead is only the dead of the living]. (S, TA.) Or ↓ مَيْتٌ signifies One who has died (actually, TA,); and مَيِّتٌ, as also ↓ مَائِتٌ, one who has not yet died, (K,) but who is near to dying: or, accord. to a verse cited by AA, to Kh, مَيْتٌ is applied to him who is borne to the grave; [i. e., who is dead, or lifeless]; and مَيِّتٌ, to him who [is dying, but] has life in him. (TA.) Fr says, you say of him who has not died, إِنَّهُ مَائِتٌ, عَنْ قَلِيلٍ ↓ and مَيِّتٌ; but you do not say of him who has died ↓ هذا مَائِتٌ: (S:) but some say, that this is an error, and that مَيِّتٌ is applicable to that which will soon die. Those who assert that ميّت is applicable only to the living adduce the following words of the Kur, [xxxix. 31,] إِنَّكَ مَيِّتٌ وَإِنَّهُمْ مَيِّتُونَ: (TA:) i. e. Verily thou wilt die, and verily they will die. (Msb.) MF observes, that مَيْتٌ is asserted to be contracted from مَيِّتٌ; and if so, that there can be no difference in their meanings: that the making a difference between them is contrary to analogy; agreeably with which, they should be like هَيْنٌ and هَيِّنٌ, and لَيْنٌ and لَيِّنٌ: and also contrary to what has been heard from the Arabs; for they made no difference in their use of these two words. (TA.) [See also what is said of مَيْتَةٌ, below.] The pls. are أَمْوَاتٌ and مَوْتَى and مَيِّتُونَ and مَيْتُونَ. (S, K.) The first of these is pl. of مَيِّتٌ, and consequently of مَيْتٌ, because this latter is contracted from the former: as مَيِّتٌ is of the measure فَيْعِلٌ, and this measure resembles فَاعِلٌ, it has received a form of pl. which is sometimes applicable to the measure فاعل: (Sb:) or اموات is [only] pl. of مَيْتٌ. (Msb.) [The second form (which is applied to rational beings, Msb,) is also pl. of ميّت and ميت.] The third and fourth are [only] applied to rational beings. (Msb.) The fem. epithet is مَيِّتَةٌ and مَيْتَةٌ and مَيِّتٌ (K, TA) and مَيْتٌ. (TA; and so in some copies of the K, in the place of مَيِّتٌ.) مَيِّتَةٌ is an epithet applied to a female rational being; [and its pl. is مَيِّتَاتٌ:] مَيْتَةٌ, to a female brute, for the sake of distinction; and its pl. is مَيْتَاتٌ: the latter is contracted because it is more in use than the former epithet applied to a female rational being: (Msb:) the pl. of ميّت and ميت as fem. epithets is as above [أَمْوَاتٌ and مَوْتَى]. (TA.) b2: ↓ مَيْتَةٌ signifies That which has not been slaughtered (AA, S, K) [in the manner prescribed by the law, i. e., carrion]: or that of which the life has departed without slaughter: so in the classical language and in the language of practical law: all such is unlawful to be eaten, except fish and locusts, which are lawful by universal consent of the Muslims: (En-Nawawee:) or, in the common acceptation of the language of law, what has died a natural death, or been killed in a state or manner different from that prescribed by the law, either the agent or the animal killed not being such as is so prescribed; as that which is sacrificed to an idol, or slaughtered [by a person] in the state of إِحْرَام, or not by having the throat cut, and that which it is unlawful to eat, such as a dog: (Msb:) [and any separated part of an animal of which the flesh is not lawful food: see عَاجٌ.] b3: بَلَدٌ مَيِّتٌ A tract of land without herbage, or pasture, (Msb, in art. بلد.) b4: مَيِّتٌ (assumed tropical:) An unbeliever; like as حَىٌّ means a Muslim. (TA, in art. حى.) مَيِّتٌ and مَيْتٌ are employed in various other senses, agreeably with the senses of the verb.]

مَائِتٌ: see مَيِّتٌ. b2: فُلَانٌ مَائِتٌ فى الغَمِّ (tropical:) [Such a one is dying, or absorbed, in grief]. (TA.) b3: مَوْتٌ مَائِتٌ A severe, painful, or violent, death: (TA:) like لَيْلٌ لَائِلٌ: the latter word being added to corroborate the former. (S.) مَمَاتٌ: see مَوْتٌ.

مُمِيتٌ and مُمِيتَةٌ (tropical:) A woman, and a she-camel, that has lost her offspring by death: (S:) and a woman who has lost her husband by death: (TA:) pl. مَمَاوِيتُ. (S.) مُتَمَاوِتٌ (tropical:) [Feigning himself dead]. b2: (tropical:) An epithet applied to A hypocritical devotee, (S, K,) who pretends to be like one dead in his devotion, who lowers his voice, and moves little: as though he were one who put on the outward appearance of devotees, and constrained himself to characterize himself by the characteristics of the dead, that he might be imagined to be weak by reason of much devotion. (TA.) مُسْتَمِيتٌ A courageous man, who seeks, or courts death: (K:) a man who seeks to be slain; who cares not, in war, for death: (S:) abandon-ing, or devoting, himself to death, (مسْتَرْسِلٌ لِلْمَوْتِ,) as also مُسْتَقْتِلٌ. (A.) b2: (assumed tropical:) Abandoning, or devoting himself to a thing, or affair; syn. مُسْتَرْسِلٌ لِأَمْرٍ. (S, K.) b3: هَوَ مُسْتَمِيتٌ إِلَى كَذَا, as also مُسْتَهْلِكٌ, (tropical:) He [is devoted to such a thing, so that he] imagines that he shall die if he do not attain it. (A.) b4: Ru-beh says, وَزَبَدُ البَحْرِ لَهُ كَتِيتُ وَاللَّيْلُ فَوْقَ المَاءِ مُسْتَمِيتُ [And to the froth of the sea there was a sound like that of boiling, and night impended over the water]. (S.) [It is implied in the S that مستميت here signifies مُسْتَرْسِل.] b5: (assumed tropical:) One who feigns himself to be insane, or possessed by a devil; not being really so. (TA.) b6: (assumed tropical:) One who feigns lowliness, or submissiveness, in voice, &c., to this man until he feeds him, and to this until he feeds him, and, when he is satiated, is ungrateful to his benefactors. (TA.) b7: (assumed tropical:) One who makes a show of being good and quiet or tranquil, and is not so in reality. (Ibn-El-Mubárak.) A2: مُسْتَمِيتٌ The thin pellicle that adheres to the white of an egg. (K.) [See 10: and see also مُسْتَمِيثٌ, in art. ميث.]
