فخذ

1 فَخَذَهُ, (S, O, L, K,) aor. ـَ (TA, and so accord. to some copies of the K, in which the verb is said to be like مَنَعَهُ,) or ـِ (so in other copies of the K,) inf. n. فَخْذٌ, (L,) He hit, or hurt, his (another's) thigh: (S, L, K:) or he broke his thigh: like as one says رَأَسَهُ and رَجَلَهُ. (O.) And فُخِذَ He was hit, or hurt, in his thigh: (M, L, K:) or his thigh was broken. (A.) 2 فَخَّذَ see 5, in two places. b2: فخّذ عَشِيرَتَهُ (assumed tropical:) He called his عشيرة [or kinsfolk] فَخِذ by فَخِذ [i. e. one small body of families after another], (S, Mgh, * O, L, K, *) inf. n. تَفْخِيذٌ: (TA:) from a trad. (S, O, L.) b3: And فَخَّذَهُمْ, inf. n. as above; (K;) or فخّذ بَيْنَهُمْ; (L;) (assumed tropical:) He dispersed them, and abstained from aiding them; syn. فَرَّقَهُمْ وَخَذَلَهُمْ: (L, K: [but see what follows:]) and (L) فخّذهم (O, L, Msb) عَنْ فُلَانٍ, (O, L,) inf. n. as above, (O, L, Msb,) signifies خذلهم, (L, Msb, [in both written without any of the syll. signs,]) or خذّلهم عَنْهُ [which is evidently the right reading (i. e. he induced them to abstain from aiding such a one), and I believe it to be the right reading also in the explanation given immediately before from the L and K]: (O:) and فخّذ بَيْنَهُمْ he dispersed them. (O, Msb.) 3 فَاْخَذَ see the next paragraph, in two places.5 تفخّذ المَرْأَةَ He (a man, Msb) sat between the thighs of the woman (Mgh, Msb) as he sits who performs [or is about to perform] the act of coïtus; as also ↓ فاخذها, [inf. n. مُفَاخَذَةٌ;] and ↓ فخّذها, inf. n. تَفْخِيذٌ: (Msb:) or he sat above the thighs of the woman: (Mgh:) ↓ التَّفْخِيذُ signifies the same as ↓ المُفَاخَذَةُ [app. agreeably with the former or the latter of the explanations above]. (S, O, L.) A2: And تفخّذ He retired, or held back, (O, K,) عَنِ الأَمْرِ from the affair. (O.) 10 استفخذ i. q. اِسْتَخْذَى, (Fr, O, K, TA,) i. e. He was, or became, lowly, humble, or submissive; and so اِسْتَخْذَأَ. (TA in arts. خذى and خذأ.) فَخِذٌ and فَخْذٌ (S, O, L, Msb, K) and فِخْذٌ (S, O, L, K) and فِخِذٌ, (L, TA,) as Ez-Zarkashee says in his Expos. of El-Bukháree, (TA,) for in the case of every faucial medial radical of a word of the measure فَعِل, whether a noun like فَخِذٌ or a verb like شَهِدَ, there are four dial. vars., namely, فَعِل and فَعْل and فِعْل and فِعِل; (Seer, O, TA;) thus it is said in the Tes-heel of Ibn-Málik; and MF says that the first three forms are common to every word of the measure of كَتِف though without a faucial letter; (TA;) The thigh; i. e. the limb (وصل [i. e. وُِصْل, but in the O written وَصْل,]) between the سَاق and the وَرِك; (Mgh, * O, L, K; *) so says Lth; (O;) and in this sense, the first of the forms above mentioned is the most chaste: (MF:) it is of the fem. gender: (Mgh, O, L, Msb, K:) pl. أَفْخَاذٌ, (Sb, L, Msb, K,) the only pl. form. (Sb, L.) b2: Also (tropical:) A small sub-tribe, or portion of the tribe, consisting of the nearest of the kinsfolk of a man; (Kh, A, * O, L, K; *) less than a بَطْن; the first [i. e. largest] body being the شَعْب, then the قَبِيلَة, then the فَصِيلَة, then the عِمَارَة, then the بَطْن, and then the فَخِْذ: (S, O, L:) or it is below the قَبِيلَة but above the بَطْن; and is pronounced with the خ quiescent: (IDrd, O:) or below the فَصِيلَة but above the بَطْن: (Msb:) or below the بَطْن and above the فَصِيلَة: (Mgh, Msb:) this last, accord. to IB and Aboo-Usámeh, is the true order; (TA voce شعب, q. v.;) and AM says that the فَصِيلَة is nearer than the فخذ: (L:) in this sense, the second of the forms above mentioned is the most chaste: (MF:) and in this sense it is of the masc. gender; (A, Mgh, O, Msb;) because meaning نَفَرٌ; (Msb;) wherefore you say, هٰذَا فَخْذِى: (A:) pl. as above. (A, O, L, K.) b3: حُلِبَتِ النَّاقَةُ فِى فَخِذِهَا is a phrase mentioned by Fr, meaning (assumed tropical:) [The she-camel was milked] in her half-month [app. at the period commencing half a month after her parturition]. (O.) فَخْذَآءُ A woman that holds a man firmly between her thighs, (Msb, K, TA,) by reason of her strength. (TA.) مَفْخُوذٌ A man hit, or hurt, in his thigh: (M, L:) or whose thigh is broken. (A.)

And فَرَزَ لَهُ مِنْ مَالِهِ نَصِيبًا [He set apart, or divided, for him a portion, or share, of his property]; as also ↓ افرزهُ. (A.)

[app. meaning, Carpets of silk brocade, the extremities of which had been fringed with green fringes]. (TA.) 2 فرّز عَلَىَّ بِرَأْيِهِ, (K,) or ↓ فَرَزَ, (thus, without teshdeed, in the O,) inf. n. تَفْرِزَةٌ, [which may be of either of the verbs,] (K,) He decided (قَطَعَ) against me by his opinion. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K. [See also 8.]) 3 فارز شَرِيكَهُ He separated himself from his partner, with the latter's concurrence; syn. فَاصَلَهُ, (S, O, K,) and قَاطَعَهُ, (S, A, O, K,) and فَارَقَهُ. (A.) 4 افرزهُ: see 1, in six places. b2: أَفْرَزْتُ فُلاَنًا بِشَىْءٍ I made such a one to have a thing to himself alone, with none to share, or participate, with him in it. (A.) A2: Also It (an object of the chase) offered him an opportunity (S, O, K) so that he shot it, or shot at it, (S, O,) from within a short distance. (S, O, K.) 6 تفارز الشُّرَكَآءُ The partners separated themselves, one from another. (A.) 7 انفرز بَعْضُهُمْ عَنْ بَعْضٍ They went apart, away, or aside; removed; or separated; one from another, or one party from another. (TA in art. عزل.) 8 افترز أَمْرَهُ دُونَ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ means قَطَعَهُ [i. e. He decided his affair exclusively of the people of his house or tent, or of his wife and family]. (O, K.

(TA.) فَرْزٌ A depressed tract of land (S, O, K, TA) between two hills: (TA:) or an intervening space between two mountains: (TA:) [or] ↓ فُرْزَةٌ has the latter meaning; mentioned by Ibn-'Abbád. (O.) فِرْزٌ: see فِرْزَةٌ, in two places: b2: and see also فُرْزَةٌ. b3: Accord. to Lth, الفِرْزُ is syn. with الفَرْدُ; but this is disallowed by Az. (TA.) فَرْزَةٌ A cleft in rugged ground. (TA.) فُرْزَةٌ A road in, or upon, an [eminence such as is termed] أَكَمَة; as also ↓ فِرْزٌ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) b2: See also فَرْزٌ.

A2: Also i. q. فُرْصَةٌ, i. e. نَوْبَةٌ [meaning A turn; or time at which, or during which, a thing is, or is to be, done, or had, in succession]. (O, K. *) فِرْزَةٌ A piece, or detached portion, (S, O, Msb, K,) of a thing that is put, or set, apart, away, or aside, or that is removed, or separated; (S, O, K;) as also ↓ فِرْزٌ: pl. [of pauc.] أَفْرَازٌ and [of mult.] فُرُوزٌ: and ↓ فِرْزٌ signifies also a portion, or share, that is put aside for the party to whom it pertains, whether one [person] or two. (TA.) فُرُزٌّ A slave sound, or healthy, or without defect or blemish: or a free man sound, or healthy, or without defect or blemish. and plump. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) فَرْوَازٌ [an arabicized word, from the Pers\. پَرْوَاز, app. as meaning A fringe, or the like; as the latter word does in Turkish, and probably, sometimes, in Persian]: accord. to some, it is of the measure فَعْلَالٌ from فَرَزَ in the first of the senses expl. in this art.; therefore, if so, it is an Arabic word: the pl. is فَرَاوِزُ. (TA.) See 1, last sentence.

فَارِزٌ A tongue distinct [in utterance]: (O, K, TA:) and discriminating language. (A, * O, K, * TA.) A2: Also A species of ant, round and black, found in dates: so says Ibráheem El-Harbee: (O and TA in art. عقف:) or the progenitor (جَدّ) of the black ants: that of the red is termed عُقْفَان: (K:) but it has been before said by the author of the K, in art. فزر, that فَازِرٌ signifies “ black ants in which is a redness: ” and it may be a mistranscription. (TA.) فَارِزَةٌ A road taking its course in a tract of sand amid sands that are compact and cleaving to the ground, and soft, (O, K,) appearing like an extended natural cleft in the ground: but this is mentioned in the book of Lth in art. فزر [as written فَازِرَة]. (O.) أَفْرَزُ Humpbacked; as also أَفْرَسُ and أَفْرَصُ: so says Fr. (TA voce أَعْجَرُ.) [The same meaning is also assigned to أَفْزَرُ, q. v.]

إِفْرِيزٌ, of a wall, an arabicized word, (S, Mgh, O, K,) [of unknown origin, like our word “ frieze,” and the French “ frise,” &c., said in the TA to be from the Pers\. پَرْوَاز, mentioned above, voce فَرْوَازٌ,] A projecting appertenance or roof or covering (جَنَاحٌ) thereof; (Mgh;) the طُنُف [q. v., app. meaning a projecting coping, or ledge, or cornice,] thereof; (O and K in the present art., and the same and S in art. طنف;) surrounding the upper part: (Kr, TA voce زَيْفٌ:) [it is also expl. as meaning] a hole, or an aperture, in a wall. (KL. [But this is app. a mistake, caused by a misunderstanding of the word طَاقٌ, which is expl. as having this meaning and also as syn. with

إِفْرِيزٌ; and the author of the KL evidently doubted its correctness, for he adds, “so we have heard. ”]) مُفْرَزٌ: see what next follows.

مَفْرُوزٌ and ↓ مُفْرَزٌ Put, or set, apart, away, or aside; removed; or separated: (Mgh:) divided into parts, or shares. (Msb.) A2: And the former, Having the back broken; like مَفْرُوسٌ. (TA in art. فرس.) A3: ثَوْبٌ مَفْرُوزٌ, (S, O, K,) by some written مُفَرْوَزٌ, (TA,) is from إِفْرِيزٌ, the افريز of a wall, (S, TA,) and signifies [A garment, or piece of cloth,] having تَطَارِيف [app. meaning a fringe, or fringes; likened to fingers, or the ends of fingers]. (O, K.) [See 1, last sentence.]

فرض

1 فَرَضَهُ, (S, A, O, Msb, &c.,) aor. ـِ (Msb, TA, &c.,) inf. n. فَرْضٌ, (S, O, Msb, K, &c.,) He made a mark in it, or upon it, by notching, or otherwise: (O:) he notched it: made a notch, or an incision, in it; (S, O, Msb, K;) namely, a piece of wood, (Msb,) a زَنْد, [or rather فَرَضَهَا said of a زَنْدَة, from which fire is produced,] and a سِوَاك [or toothstick], (S, O,) and in like manner a bow; (A;) as also [↓ افترضهُ; (see this verb below;) and] ↓ فرّضهُ, inf. n. تَفْرِيضٌ: (K:) or this last signifies he notched it much; or made notches in it; (S, O, TA;) or you say, فَرَضَ قَوْسَهُ and فَرَّضَ قِسِيَّهُ: (A:) and فَرَضَهُ signifies he notched it with his teeth; namely, a tooth-stick: (As:) and he cut it; namely, a thing; or a hard thing; which is said by some to be the primary signification: (TA:) and he (a tailor) cut it out; namely a garment: (Kull p. 275:) and he cut it out and made it round; namely a shield: (TA:) and فَرْضٌ also signifies the cutting, or dividing, lengthwise; cleaving; or the like; applied in a general manner; or the making a trench, or an oblong excavation, in the middle of a grave; فَرَضْتُ لِلْمَيِّتِ signifying I made a trench, or an oblong excavation, in the middle of a grave, for the corpse. (TA.) A2: فَرَضَ لَهُ, [aor. and] inf. n. as above, (K, &c.,) He apportioned to him [a thing]: he appointed to him [a thing]: (Bd in xxxiii. 38, and TA: *) because that which is apportioned, or appointed, [to a person] is cut off from the thing from which it is apportioned, or appointed: (TA:) he made [a thing] lawful, or allowable, to him; (Jel in xxxiii. 38, and Kull in p. 275, and TA; *) relating to a case into which a man has brought himself: (Kull:) this is said to be the meaning when the phrase فَرَضَ اللّٰهُ لَهُ occurs in the Kur: (TA:) he appointed, or assigned, to him a definite portion; (K;) as also له ↓ افرض. (O, L, K.) You say فَرَضَ لَهُ فِى

العَطَآءِ [He appointed, or assigned, to him a definite portion in the gift]. (As, S.) And فَرَضَ لَهُ فِى الدِّيوَانِ (As, S, A) [He appointed, or assigned, to him a definite portion in the register of soldiers or pensioners; or] he registered his stipend therein. (As, A, TA.) And فَرَضَهُ, (S,) and ↓ افرضهُ, (S, K,) He gave to him. (S, O, K.) b2: فَرَضَ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb,) aor. as above, (TA,) and so the inf. n., (Msb, TA,) also signifies He (God, S, A, Mgh, Msb) made a thing, (S, TA,) or prayer, (A, Mgh,) or statutes or ordinances, (Msb,) obligatory, or binding, syn. أَوْجَبَ, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, TA,) by a known decree, (TA,) [or He imposed a thing &c.,] عَلَى إِنْسَانٍ on a man, (TA,) or عَلَيْنَا on us; (S;) and so ↓ اِفْتَرَضَ: (S, A, Mgh, O, K:) or فَرْضٌ is like إِيجَابٌ; but the latter is so termed in consideration of its befalling; and the former is so called in consideration of the sentence, or decree, respecting it: (B:) [this is said in books on the law, in explanation of the opinion of Aboo-Haneefeh, as opposed to that of Esh-Sháfi'ee: for] accord. to Esh-Sháfi'ee, these two terms are alike; (L, TA;) but accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh, the difference between الوَاجِبُ and الفَرْضُ is like the difference between heaven and earth: (TA:) this distinction, however, is founded upon contested derivations of the two terms: (Kull p. 276:) and it is said that wherever the phrase فَرَضَ اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ occurs, it means إِيجَابٌ. (TA.) Also He (the apostle of God) instituted, or prescribed, [a thing as a statute, or an ordinance, or a command or prohibition;] syn. سَنَّ; (O, K;) on the authority of IAar alone: (O, TA:) but accord. to others, he made necessarily obligatory or binding; and this, says Az, is the obvious meaning. (TA.) Also He (a judge) decreed, or adjudged, [TA.) Also He (a judge) decreed, or adjudged, [a thing, as, for instance,] expenses [&c.]. (Msb.) Also He assigned, or appointed, a particular time for doing a thing; or he determined, defined, or limited, a thing as to time, or otherwise; the inf. n., فَرْضٌ, being syn. with تَوْقِيتٌ: (Ibn-'Arafeh, A, O, K:) as in the phrase فَمَنْ فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ الحَجَّ [And whoso determineth the performance of the pilgrimage therein]; (Ibn-'Arafeh, O, K;) occurring in the Kur [ii. 193]; and in like manner it is expl. by Ibn-'Arafeh as occurring in xxxiii. 38 of the Kur (O, TA:) but the phrase quoted above is also expl. as meaning and whoso maketh it obligatory, or binding, on himself to perform the pilgrimage therein, by his entering upon the state of إِحْرَام. (TA.) b3: سُورَةٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهَا وَفَرَضْنَاهَا, (K,) in the Kur, [commencing chap. xxiv.,] (TA,) means [This is a chapter which we have revealed and] in which we have set down the obligatory statutes: (O, K:) or in which we have bound you to do according to what is made obligatory therein: (Az, O:) or, as some read, ↓ وَفَرَّضْنَاهَا, (S, O, K, *) meaning and in which we have set down obligatory statutes, (O, L, K,) one after another: (O, K:) or which we have distinctly explained: (Az, S, O, K:) or we have distinctly explained what is in it, of lawful and unlawful [things]. (T, TA.) b4: فَرْضٌ also signifies The act of reading, or reciting. (IAar, O, K.) You say, فَرَضْتُ جُزْئِى I read, or recited, my portion. (O, TA.) A3: فَرُضَ, inf. n. فَرَاضَةٌ, He was, or became, skilled in the فَرَائِض; (A, O, K, TA;) i. e. in the science of the division of inheritances. (TA.) MF says that, accord. to IKtt, the verb is also written فَرَضَ, like كَتَبَ: but [says SM] what I find in his “ Kitáb el-Abniyeh ” is the mention of the two modes of writing in the instance of فرضت said of a cow; and the verb applied to a man he has not mentioned. (TA.) A4: فَرَضَتْ, aor. ـِ inf. n. فُرُوضٌ; and فَرُضَتْ, inf. n. فَرَاضَةٌ; She (a cow) became old, aged, far advanced in age, (S, O, K,) or extremely old. (TA.) b2: And فَرَضَ, inf. n. فُرُوضٌ, signifies It (a thing) became wide; it widened, or dilated. (TA.) 2 فَرَّضَ see 1, first sentence: and again, in the last quarter of the paragraph.

A2: فرّض, inf. n. تَفْرِيضٌ, said of a man, He had a فَرِيضَة [to give from] among his camels. (O, K.) 4 افرض لَهُ: and افرضهُ: see 1, latter part of the first half of the paragraph.

A2: أَفْرَضَتِ المَاشِيَةُ The beasts amounted to the number which rendered it obligatory on the owner to give from among them a فَرِيضَة. (S, O, K. *) 8 افترضهُ: see 1, first sentence. b2: لَمْ يَفْتَرِضْهَا وَلَدٌ, occurring in a trad., means [A child had not been brought forth by her; lit.] لَمْ يَحُزَّهَا, and لَمْ يُوءَتِّرْهَا [a mistake for لم يُوءَشِّرْهَا]. (TA.) A2: See also 1, latter part of the first half of the paragraph.

A3: افترض الجُنْدٌ The soldiers received their stipends. (A, K.) A4: افترض القَوْمُ The people, or company of men, perished, none of them remaining; syn. انقرض. (K.) فَرْضٌ A mark [made by notching, or otherwise; as is shown by the first explanation of 1]: (TA:) a notch, or an incision, in a thing: (O, TA:) of a bow, (S, A, K,) the place of the string; (K;) the notch (S, A, O) in the curved extremity thereof, (A,) into which the string falls; (S, O;) as also ↓ فُرْضَةٌ; (A, TA;) or this is the place of the notch for the string thereof: (Msb:) pl. of the former فِرَاضٌ (S, O, K) and فُرُوضٌ; (TA;) and of the latter فُرَضٌ (Msb, TA) and فِرَاضٌ: (Msb:) also, of a زَنْد, (S, K,) or [rather] of a زَنْدَة, (A,) the notch; (K;) or the place, or part, whence the fire is produced; (S, K;) the hole, or perforation, that is made in the head thereof, into which the زَنْد is put, and then twisted round, in producing fire; also called وَكْرٌ; (A;) and ↓ فُرْضَةٌ signifies the same: (TA:) and فُرَضٌ also signifies notches in an unfeathered and headless arrow [such as is used in the game called المَيْسِر]. (TA.) A2: I. q. ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ (A, Msb, K) [Apportioned: appointed; made lawful, or allowable: and] a thing made obligatory, or binding, by God; (S, A, O, K;) for neglecting which one will be punished; like وَاجِبٌ; accord. to EshSháfi'ee; (TA in art. وجب;) because it has marks and limits; (S, O, TA;) said to be from the same word signifying “ a mark,” because it inseparably pertains to a man, like a mark; (TA;) or, as some say, because it necessarily pertains to a man like as does the فَرْض, i. e. notch, to the arrow; (O, TA;) as also ↓ مُفْتَرَضٌ: (TA:) pl. فُرُوضٌ. (Msb.) As a law-term, it is of two sorts, فَرْضُ عَيْنٍ and فَرْضُ كِفَايَةٍ: the former is That whereof the observance is obligatory on every one, and does not become of no force in respect of some in consequence of the observance [thereof] by some [others]; as religious belief, and the like: the latter is That whereof the observance is obligatory on the collective body of the Muslims, and, in consequence of the observance [thereof] by some, becomes of no force in respect of the rest; as warring against unbelievers, and the prayer over the dead in the bier. (KT.) Yousay, هٰذَا أَمْرٌ فَرْضٌ عَلَيْهِمْ, and ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ, and ↓ مُفْتَرَضٌ, This is [a thing] made obligatory, or binding, on them by God. (TA.) And حَقُّكَ فَرْضٌ, and ↓ مَفْرُوضٌ, and ↓ مُفْتَرَضٌ, Thy right, or due, is [a thing] made obligatory, or binding, by God. (A.) ↓ نَصِيبًا مَفْرُوضًا, in the Kur [iv. 8 and 118], means A share, or portion, determined, defined, or limited, as to time, or otherwise: (Zj, Ibn-'Arafeh:) or, in iv. 118, a share, or portion, cut off and limited. (S, O.) [See also فَرِيضَةٌ.]

b2: A statute, an ordinance, a command or prohibition, of the Apostle of God; syn. سُنَّةٌ. (IAar, O, K.) [But فَرْضٌ is generally distinguished from سُنَّةٌ: the former, for instance, being applied to prayer appointed in the Kur-án; and the latter, to prayer appointed by Mohammad without allegation of a divine order.] b3: A gift, or a soldier's stipend or pay, syn. عَطَآءٌ, (A,) or عَطِيَّةٌ, (S, O, K,) assigned, or appointed. (S, O, K. *) In the copies of the K, مَوْسُومَة is put by mistake for مَرْسُومَة. (TA.) You say, مَا أَصَبْتُ مِنْهُ فَرْضًا وَلَا قَرْضًا I did not obtain from him an assigned, or appointed, gift, or soldier's stipend, (S, O, TA,) nor a gift to be requited, or a loan. (O, TA.) And فَرْضٌ also signifies A thing which one makes obligatory, or binding, on himself, and freely gives: or a thing which one gives liberally, not for a recompense. (IDrd, O, K.) A3: Also Soldiers who receive stipends; (K:) so accord. to Lth, as related by Az; but [Sgh says] I have not found it in the book of Lth: (O:) or soldiers having definite portions assigned to them: (A:) pl. فُرُوضٌ. (A, TA.) Yousay, عِنْدَهُ مِائَةٌ مِنَ الفَرْضِ He has with him a hundred soldiers &c. (A.) A4: A shield. (S, O, K.) Sakhr-el-Gheí says, describing lightning, (O, TA,) likening it to a light shield which an announcer of tidings was turning over and over with his hands that a party might see it and be gladdened [by the signal], (TA,) أَرِقْتُ لَهُ مِثْلَ لَمْعِ البَشِيرِ يُقَلِّبُ بِالكَفِّ فَرْضًا خَفِيفًا [I was sleepless by reason of it, it being (in its flickering) like the signalling of the announcer of tidings turning over and over with the hand a light shield]: one should not say قُرْصًا خفيفا.

He attributed to him an excellence distinguishing him from [or above] another, or others: (TA:) or فَضَّلْتُهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ, inf. n. as above, I judged him (S, O, Msb, * TA) to be more excellent than another, or others: (S, * O, * Msb, TA: *) or I made him (S, O, Msb, * TA) to be so. (S, * O, * Msb, TA.) وَفَضَّلْنَاهُمْ عَلَى كَثِيرٍ مِمَّنْ خَلَقْنَا, in the Kur [xvii. 72, i. e. and we have made them to excel many of those that we have created], has been expl. as meaning that the excellence of the son of Adam consists in his walking erect, whereas the beasts, the camels and the asses and the like, walk pronely; and the son of Adam takes food with his hands, whereas the other animals take it with the mouth. (TA.) And وَاللّٰهُ فَضَّلَ بَعْضَكُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ, in the Kur [xvi. 73, i. e. And God hath made some of you to excel some others], means, in ability, and wealth, and rank or station, and power; which are excellences that may be acquired. (Er-Rághib, TA.) And you say, فضّلهُ بِهِ, meaning خَصَّهُ [i. e. He distinguished him particularly, peculiarly, or specially, by it, namely, a thing]. (A and K in art. خص.) And فضّل فِى العَطَآءِ He gave to some more than to others. (S in art. افق.) b2: [An explanation of فضّل given by Golius, as on the authority of the K, (“ i. q. وسخ, Sordibus infecit, vel pro sordida habuit, quotidianam vestem,”) is a strange mistake; app. caused by his finding in a copy of the K التَّفْضِيلُ التَّوْسِيخُ instead of التَّفَضُّلُ التَّوَشُّحُ: see 5. b3: اِسْمُ التَّفْضِيلِ The noun of the attribution of excess or excellence is a term applied to the comparative and superlative noun or epithet; also called أَفْعَلُ التَّفْضِيلِ, because it is regularly of the measure أَفْعَلُ: see exs. voce خَيْرٌ.]3 الفِضَالُ [and المُفَاضَلَةُ inf. ns. of فَاضَلَ] and ↓ التَّفَاضُلُ [inf. n. of 6 (of which see an ex. in art. سوى, conj. 6,)] signify التَّمَازِى فِى الفَضْلِ [i. e. The contending for superiority in excellence]; (K, * TA;) التَّمَازِى being of the measure تَفَاعُل from المَزِيَّةُ. (TA.) And you say, ↓ فَاضَلْتُهُ فَفَضَلْتُهُ, (S, O, K, * in the last فَاضَلَنِى,) aor. of the latter فَضُلَ, (TA,) inf. n. فَضْلٌ, (O, TA,) I contended with him for superiority, or vied with him, in excel-lence, (O, TA,) and I surpassed him, or outvied him, therein. (S, O, K, TA.) b2: And فاضل بَيْنَ الشَّيْئَيْنِ [app. He made the relation between the two things to be unequal in respect of excellence; i. e. he made the two things to be unequal, or unlike each other, in excellence; contr. of سَاوَى بَيْنَهُمَا: see also 6]. (TA.) 4 افضل فِى تِجَارَتِهِ He gained; or made gain, or profit; in his traffic; syn. رَبِحَ. (Az and Msb in art. ربح.) b2: عَنْهُ [and عَنْهُ ↓ فَضَلَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. فَضْلٌ, (see فَضْلٌ below, last signification, and see also فَاضِلٌ,)] It exceeded it. (K, TA. [See also 1, latter half.]) Ows says, describing a bow, كَقَوْسٍ طِلَاعِ الكَفِّ لَا دُونَ مِلْئِهَا وَلَا عَجْسُهَا عَنْ مَوْضِعِ الكَفِّ أَفْضَلَا [Like a bow of which the part that is grasped is sufficient in size for the filling of the hand, not less than suffices to fill it, nor does the part that is grasped thereof extend beyond the place of the hand: the pret. being here used for the aor. to suit the metre]. (TA. [But my original has كَقَوْمٍ, an evident mistranscription.]) b3: افضل عَلَيْهِ: see 5, in two places.

A2: أَفْضَلْتُ مِنْهُ الشَّىْءَ and ↓ اِسْتَفْضَلْتُ signify the same, (S, O, K, TA,) i. e. I left of it the thing remaining, or redundant. (O, TA.) 5 تفضّل عَلَيْهِ [in the CK (erroneously) فَضَّلَ] i. q. تَمَزَّى, (K, TA,) both of which signify He thought himself to be superior to him in excellence; (TA in art. مزو;) whence the saying in the Kur [xxiii. 24], يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَتَفَضَّلَ عَلَيْكُمْ, meaning He desireth that he may have superiority over you in rank and station: (TA in the present art.) or i. q. عليه ↓ افضل, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) inf. n. إِفْضَالٌ, (Msb, TA,) i. e. he bestowed, or conferred, a benefit, or benefits, upon him, syn. أَحْسَنَ, (S, TA,) or تَطَوَّلَ, (K, TA,) and gave him of his bounty: (TA:) [and each, followed by بِشَىْءٍ, he presented him, or favoured him, with a thing:] or تفضّل signifies, (K,) or signifies also, (S,) he laid claim to superiority of excellence over his equals, or fellows; (S, K;) whence [accord. to some] the saying in the Kur quoted above: (S:) and [you say] عَلَيْهِ فِى الحَسَبِ ↓ افضل, (K, TA,) meaning he became possessed of eminence. [or superiority, over him, in the grounds of pretension to respect or honour,] as in a verse of Dhu-l-Isba' cited voce عَنْ, [q. v., p. 2164,] ending with فَتَخْزُوْنِى for فَتَخْزُوَنِى, [which latter reading I have there given,] because the rhyme of the whole ode requires the former. (TA.) A2: التَّفَضُّلُ also signifies التَّوَشُّحُ [generally meaning The throwing a portion of one's garment over his left shoulder, and drawing its extremity under his right arm, and tying the two extremities together in a knot upon his bosom]: and the putting, or disposing, the extremities of his two garments, or pieces of cloth, contrariwise, or in contrary directions, upon his عَاتِق [or part between the shoulder and the neck]. (K, TA: but in the former, عَلَى عَاتِقَيْهِ is erroneously put for على عَاتِقِهِ. TA.) b2: and تَفَضَّلَتْ said of a woman in her tent or chamber or house, She was in a single garment; (S, O, TA;) [she wore a single garment;] such as is termed مِفْضَلٌ [q. v.]: (S, TA:) or she (a woman) wore the garments of her service. (TA.) 6 تَفَاْضَلَ see 3. b2: التَّفَاضُلُ بَيْنَ القَوْمِ means The differing in superiority, or excellence, of some over others, among the people, or party. (TA.) and one says, الأَشْيَآءُ تَتَفَاضَلُ [meaning The things are unequal, or unlike, one to another, in respect of excellence; contr. of تَتَسَاوَى: see also 3]. (TA.) 10 استفضل أَلْفًا He took a thousand [dirhems] in excess of his right, or due. (TA.) b2: See also 4.

فَضْلٌ [an inf. n.: (see 1, throughout:) and also a simple subst., signifying] An exceeding, a redundant, or a superfluous, quantum [of anything, good or evil]; an excess, a redundance, or a superfluity; syn. زِيَادَةٌ; (Mgh, Msb;) contr. of نَقْصٌ: (S, O, K:) [and often meaning superabundance, or exuberance; and surpassingness, superiority, or excellence. عَلَى غَيْرِهِ over another, or others, than him, or it: and preponderance:] the pl. is فُضُولٌ (Mgh, Msb, K:) and this is sometimes used as a sing.; (Er-Rághib, Msb;) and [thus used] relates to a thing [or quality] in which is no good; (Er-Rághib, Mgh, Msb;) by a predominant application; whence the saying فُضُولٌ بِلَا فَضْلٍ [excess without excellence]; (Mgh;) and hence the rel. n. ↓ فُضُولِىٌّ is formed from it: (Er-Rághib, Msb, TA;) [see this last word, one of the explanations of which shows that a particular meaning of فُضُولٌ is the quality of busying oneself with that which does not concern him:] accord. to Er-Rághib, فَضْلٌ signifies an excess [in respect of a property or quality, or of an acquisition,] above moderateness; and this is of two sorts; such as is commended, as the فضل of knowledge, or science ; and such as is discommended, as the فصل of anger at that whereat it is not necessary: but فَضَلٌ is more used in relation to that which is commended; and [the pl.] فُضُولٌ, in relation to that which is discommended. when the former is used of an excess [in respect of some attribute, of our of two things above the other, it is of three sorts; فضل of kind, as of the animal kind above the vegetable kind; and of species, as of man above other animals; and of the individual, as of one man above another; the first and second of which three are essential attributes, such that he who is deficient in [either of] them cannot do away with his deficiency and acquire فضل, as, for instance, the horse, and the ass, which cannot acquire the excellence (فَضِيلَة) of the human being; but the third may be accidental, such that the way may be found to acquire it, and of this sort are ability, wealth, rank or station, and power: and it signifies also any gift whereof the giving to the recipient thereof is not obligatory: [i. e. a free gift, or gratuity; and an act of bounty or grace; a favour; a benefit; and bounty as an abstract term;] as in the saying [in the Kur iv. 36], وَاسْأَلُوا اللّٰهَ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ [And ask ye God of his free gift, or of his bounty, or (as expl. in the Ksh and by Bd) of his exhaustless treasures]; and in the saying in the Kur [v. 59 and lvii. 21 and lxii. 4], ذٰلِكَ فَضْلُ اللّٰهِ يُؤْتِيهِ مَنْ يَشَآءُ [That is the free gift of God; He giveth it to whom He willeth]; which comprises the three sorts of excellences (فَضَائِل) [mentioned above]: thus says Er-Rághib: El-Muná- wee says, [explaining one of its meanings,] in the “ Towkeef,” that it is the commencing, or originating, of an act of beneficence without an efficient cause [i. e., app., not by reason of any obligation]. (TA.) b2: Also A portion remaining, (K, TA,) of a thing, such as food &c., and of water in the leathern water-bag, and of wine or beverage in the vessel; (TA;) and ↓ فَضْلَةٌ and ↓ فُضَالَةٌ signify the same, (K, TA,) or a redundant portion (S and O and Msb in explanation of these two words) of a thing: (S, O:) whence the saying of the vulgar, ↓ لِلْفَضِيلِ ↓ الفَضْلَةُ i. e. The remaining portion of the wine or beverage [is for the excel-lent]. (TA.) It is said in a trad., لَا يُمْنَعُ فَضْلُ المَآءِ لِيُمْنَعَ بِهِ الكَلَأُ [The redundance of water shall not be denied that the herbage be thereby denied]: (TA, in the present art.:) meaning that when there is a well in the desert, with herbage near it, and a person prevents others from drawing water, he thereby prevents the latter from availing themselves of the herbage; for when a man comes with his camels, and pastures them upon that herbage, and does not then water them, thirst kills them. (TA in art كلأ,) And it is said in another trad., فَضْلُ الإِزَارِ فِى النَّارِ [The redundant portion of the waist-wrapper is in the fire of Hell]; meaning what one drags [thereof] upon the around, by reason of pride. (TA;) and one says, فِى يَدِهِ فَضْلُ الزِّمَامِ, meaning [In his hand is] the end of the زمام [or nose-rein of the camel]. (TA.) ذَاتُ الفُضُولِ and ↓ الفضُولِ, with damm and with fet-h, [The thing having redundant portions] is the name of the coat of mail of the Prophet, which was thus called because having redundance and ampleness. (TA.) فُضُولُ الغَنَائِمِ means The remains of the spoils when they are divided (TA;) such as a single horse, or a single camel (KL.) And by the فُضُول of women are meant The remains of the menstrual discharge (Ham p. 107: see, there, explanations of a verse in which this occurs.) (??) [The confederacy, or covenant, of the فضول, a word which is here of uncertain meaning,] is thus explained: Háshim and Zuhrah and Teym [accord. to the CK Teymà] went in to 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Jud'án, and united in a confederacy to repel wrongdoing, and to exact the due from the wrongdoer; and it was thus called because they bound themselves by their confederacy not to leave in the possession of any one aught remaining [of property] whereof he aught despond any one, without their taking it for him [i. e. the latter] from him [i. e. the former] (O, K, TA: [in the CK, يَظْلِمُهُ أَحَدٌ is a mistake for يظلمه أَحَدًا:]) or it was thus called as being likened to a confederacy, or covenant, which was made of old, at Mekkeh, in the days of Jurhum, to act with mutual equity, and to take for the weak from the strong, and for the stranger from the resident, and in which three men, every one of whom was named El-Fadl, joined: and it was also called that of the مَطَيَّبُون. (TA. [See art. طيب.]) b3: The saying لَا يَمْلِكُ دِرْهَمًا فَضْلًا عَنْ دِينَارٍ, and the like may be said of other sayings similar to it, means He does not possess a dirhem nor a deenár [or rather much less a deenár]: it is as though one said, he does not possess a dirhem: how then should he possess a deenár? for the negation of that which is much is a necessary consequence of the negation of that which is little: فَضْلًا is here in the accus case as an inf. n.; the implied meaning being فَقَدَ مِلْكَ دِرْهَمٍ فَقْدًا يَفْضُلُ عَنْ فَقْدِ مِلْكِ دينَارٍ [or rather يَفْقِدُ &c., i. e. he lacks the possession of a dirhem with a lacking exceeding the lacking of the possession of a deenár]: (Msb:) Kutb-ed-Deen Esh-Sheerázee says, (Msb, TA,) in the Expos. of the “ Miftáh,” (TA,) فَضْلًا is used in a case in which the inferior [of two things] is deemed a thing of which the existence is improbable, and the impossibility of the existence of a thing that is above it is meant thereby; wherefore it occurs between two phrases differing in meaning; and it is mostly used after a particle of negation: (Msb, TA:) AHei says that he had not found any authority for it in the [classical] language of the Arabs. (Msb. [See also بَلْهَ, which is used in a somewhat similar manner.]) فُضُلٌ Wearing a single garment, such as is termed مِفْضَلٌ; an epithet applied to a woman; (S, Mgh, * O, K;) and also to a man; (S, O, K;) like ↓ مُتَفَضِّلٌ: (O, K:) it is of the dial. of Nejd; like فُرُجٌ in the dial. of El-Yemen. (L in art. فرج.) b2: And A woman proud, or self-conceited, or so in her gait; who makes a portion of her skirt to be redundant [so that it drags upon the ground when she walks]. (TA.) b3: See also مِفْضَلٌ, in three places.

فَضْلَةٌ: see فَضْلٌ, former half, in two places. b2: [Hence, as used by grammarians,] A dispensable member of a proposition; such as the objective complement of a verb, when the suppression thereof is not detrimental [to the meaning]; contr. of عُمْدَةٌ. (I'Ak, p. 143) [The pl. is فَضَلَاتٌ.] b3: And The clothes that are used for sleeping [therein]: (K, TA:) [so called] because they are an addition over and above the clothes that are used on various [other] occasions. (TA.) b4: And Wine; and so ↓ فِضَالٌ [which see also in what here follows]: (O, K:) الفَضْلَةُ is mentioned by A'Obeyd as a name for wine: (O:) or it signifies, accord. to AHn, the wine that alters [or has become altered] in colour after oldness; and ISd says that it is so called because the choice, or best, or most excellent, part thereof [for لأنّ حميمها in my original (an obvious mistranscription) I read لِأَنَّ صَمِيمَهَا ] is what remains: (TA:) the pl. is فَضَلَاتٌ and فِضَالٌ [the latter word mentioned above as a syn. of فَضْلَةٌ]. (K.) فِضْلَةٌ is a n. of the same kind as جِلْسَةٌ and رِكْبَةٌ: (Az, S, O, TA:) one says, إِنَّهُ لَحَسَنُ الفِضْلَةِ, meaning [Verily he is comely in respect of] the manner of wearing a single garment. (S, * O, * K, * TA.) فِضَالٌ: see فَضْلَةٌ: b2: and see also مِفْضَلٌ.

(MA.) فُضَالَى [a pl. of which the sing. is not mentioned] i. q. ↓ مُتَفَضِّلُونَ, (O, K, TA,) i. e. [Men] who bestow, or confer, benefits. (TA.) فُضُولِىٌّ a rel. n. formed from فُضُولٌ as pl. of فَضْلٌ but used as a sing.: (Er-Rághib, Msb, TA:) see فَضْلٌ, near the beginning: One who busies himself with that which does not concern him. (Er-Rághib, Mgh, O, Msb, TA.) In the conventional language of the lawyers, One who is not a commissioned agent, (Mgh, O, KT, TA,) nor a guardian (وَلِىّ), (KT, TA,) nor a proprietor, (TA,) nor a person of firm judgment (أَصِيلٌ), in a contract. (KT.) The pronunciation with fet-h to the ف is a mistake. (Mgh, O.) b2: Also A tailor. (IAar, O, K.) فَضَّالٌ: see مِفْضَالٌ.

فَاضِلٌ [act. part. n. of فَضَلَ: as such signifying Exceeding; &c.]. One says, مَالُ فُلَانٍ فَاضِلٌ i. e. [The wealth, or property, of such a one is superfluous; or] abundant, or much in quantity, such as has exceeded the supply of food sufficient to sustain life (فَضَلَ عَنِ القُوتِ). (TA.) b2: and [Excelling; or excellent, as also ↓ فَضِيلٌ, of which the pl. is فُضَلَآءُ, but which is probably postclassical: or it is] applied to a man as [a possessive epithet] meaning possessing فَضْل [i. e. excel-lence]. (TA.) [And conventionally, Erudite; or excellent in learning.] b3: See also مَفْضُولٌ.

فَاضِلَةٌ is a subst. from فَضِيلَةٌ [app. as a concrete term, signifying An excellent thing, or an excel-lent action; each as distinguished from an excel-lent quality]; (K, TA;) pl. فَوَاضِلُ: (TA:) [but generally] it signifies a gift, or thing that is given: (Ham p. 431, and Har p. 184:) or a benefit, or benefaction: or such as is continual, or uninterrupted: (MA:) pl. as above: (Ham and Har, ubi suprà; and MA:) [or] فَوَاضِلُ signifies benefits, or benefactions, that are goodly, or pleasing, (IDrd, O, K,) or such as are great, or large.

And فَوَاضِلُ المَالِ signifies What accrues to one of the proceeds and profits of property, (O, K, TA,) of the increase of lands and palm-trees and the like, and the gains of commercial transactions, and the milk and wool of cattle and sheep.

(Mgh.) مِفْضَلَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

فِيلُ [The elephant; Pers\. پيل;] a certain animal, (TA,) well known: pl. [of pauc.] أَفْيَالٌ and [of mult.] فُيُولٌ and فِيَلَةٌ; (S, M, O, Msb, K;) not أَفْيِلَةٌ: (ISk, S, O, Msb:) accord. to Sb.

فِيلٌ may be originally of the measure فُعْلٌ, (S, M, O,) pronounced with kesr because of the ى, like as they said أَبْيَضُ and بيضٌ; but Akh says, this is not the case in the sing, but only in the pl.: (S, O:) fem. with ة. (M, K) b2: Hence, لَيْلَةٌ مِثْلُ لَوْنِ الفِيلِ [lit. A night like the colour of the elephant;] meaning a night that is black. (M, TA,) and dust-coloured; (M;) in which one knows not the right course to pursue: the colours of the فيل being of this kind. (M, TA.) b3: [Hence, also, دَآءُ الفِيلِ The disease called by us the tumid Barbadoes leg; because the leg of the patient resembles that of the elephant by reason of its enormously-swollen state: not (as some have supposed it to be) elephantiasis; this latter being termed جُذَام (q. v.) [b4: And hence, likewise, used as an epithet,] فِيلٌ signifies also (tropical:) Heavy [or dull]; and low, ignoble, or mean. (K, TA.) b5: And one says رَجُلٌ فِيلُ الرَّأْىِ, meaning A man weak in respect of judgment, or opinion; (T, S, M, O, K;) and so ↓ فِيْلُهُ; (M, K;) and ↓ فَائِلُهُ: (T, M, O, K;) and ↓ فَيِّلُهُ, (ISk, T, S, M, O, K,) of the measure فَيْعِل; (O:) and ↓ فَالُهُ, (T, M, O, K,) and فَالٌ alone. (S, K.) meaning weak in respect of judgment, or opinion; (T, S, M, O, K;) erring in insight: (S:) pl. of the first] أَفْيَالٌ: (S, M, O, K:) but AO says, the ↓ فَائِل is one who, inspecting, forms an opinion and errs; if he err after examining a horse in all its states or conditions and forming an opinion respecting it from his inspection, [not while doing so,] he is not reckoned to be فائل. (TA.) الفَيَالُ and الفِيَالُ, (Lth, T, M, O, K) the former a subst, and the latter an inf. n. [of 3], (Lth, T, O,) and ↓ المُفَايَلَةُ [which is likewise an inf. n. of 3], (M, K,) A certain game, (Lth, T, M, O, K,) well known, (O,) of the children, (T,) or of the youths, or young men, of the Arabs (M, K) of the desert, (M,) with earth, or dust: (Lth, T, M, O:) a thing is hidden in earth, or dust, which is then divided (T, M) into two portions; then the hider says to his companion, In which of them twain is it? (T;) and if he [who is thus questioned] mistake, the hider says to him فَالَ رَأْيُكَ: (T, M, * K; *) ISk termed it الفِئَالُ, with ء; (O;) and it has been mentioned before in art. فأل: (T, O, K:) accord. to some, (TA,) this game is called الطَّبَنُ and السُدَّرُ. (T, TA. [But see the former of these two words.]) فَيَالَةٌ: see the first paragraph.

فُيُولَةٌ: see the first paragraph.

فَيِّلُ اللَّحْمِ A man having much flesh: (T, O, * K:) some pronounce it with ء, (T, O,) saying فَيأَل, (T,) or فَئِل; (O;) both mentioned before [in art. فأل]. (TA.) b2: فَيِّلُ الرَّأْىِ: see فِيلٌ, latter half.

فَيِّالٌ The attendant, or master, (S, M, O, Msb, K,) or the keeper, or driver, (MA, KL,) of the فِيل [or elephant], (S, MA, O, Msb, KL,) or of the فِيلَة. (So in the M and K.) فَائِلُ الرَّأْىِ: see فِيلٌ, latter half, in two places.

A2: الفَائِلُ [as a subst.] signifies The flesh that is upon the خُرْبَة, (S, O,) or خُرْب, (K, [in the M, accord. to the TT, حرف, app. a mistranscription,]) of the وَرِك; (S, M, O, K;) [which, I think, will be plainly seen from what follows to mean the flesh that is upon the sacro-ischiatic foramen; though خُرْبَةُ الوَرِكِ and خُرْبُ الوَرِكِ are said in the TA, in art. خرب, to mean “ the hole where the head of the thigh-bone is inserted; ”] so says A 'Obeyd: (S, O:) or, (S, M, O, K,) as some say, so adds A 'Obeyd, (S, O,) a certain vein (T, S, M, O, K) in the خُرْبَة of the وَرِك, descending into the leg, (T,) or in the thigh: (S, O:) As says, in “ the Book of the Horse,” in the وَرِك is the خُرْبَة, which is a نُقْرَة wherein is flesh, no bone being in it; and in that نُقْرَة is the فَائِل, and there is no bone between the said نقرة and the belly, but only skin and flesh; (T, * S, O;) and he cites the saying of El-Aashà, قَدْ نَخْضِبُ العَيْرَ فِى مَكْنُونِ فَائِلِهِ وَقَدْ يَشِيطُ عَلَى أَرْمَاحِنَا البَطَلُ [Oft we stain the ridge of the spear-head in what is concealed in the interior of his فائل, and oft the man of valour dies by means of our spears]; مَكْنُونُ الفَائِلِ means his blood: he says [by implication], we are skilful in respect of the place of piercing: (S, O:) but As said مِنْ in the place of فِى; and AA, قَدْ نَطْعُنُ; which has been pronounced to be wrong: (O:) or the فَائِلَانِ, (T, M,) or the ↓ فَائِلَتَانِ, (so in the K, [app. a mistranscription,]) are two veins entering into the interior parts of the thighs (T, M, K,) in the hinder parts thereof; (M, K;) and they adduce as an evidence thereof the verse of El-Aashà cited above, saying that the epithet مكنون would not have been used if the فائل were not a vein; but others say that [the poet meant that] he made the spear-head to become concealed in the furthest part of the flesh; and if the فائل were a vein, it would not have been mentioned as it has been in a phrase of Imra-el-Keys which will be cited in what follows: (M:) [hence it is said,] or they are two portions of flesh [between which is the lower part of the os sacrum, i. e.] the lower parts of which are upon the صَلَوَان [dual of صَلًا], from the region of the lower portions of the حَجَبَتَانِ to the عَجْب, bordering upon the عُصْعُص on either side, descending in the two sides of the two thighs; [so in a human being,] and thus in the horse: (M, K: [for the meanings of the words that I have here left untranslated, I must refer to their several proper arts.; as they are variously explained:]) ↓ الفَالُ is a dial. var. of الفَائِلُ; (M, K, TA;) which is expl. by Sgh [in the O] as meaning a certain vein issuing from the فَوَّارَة of the وَرِك [i. e. from the sacro-ischiatic foramen]: (TA:) [but the assertion that الفال is a dial. var. of الفائل seems to be founded only upon what here follows:] Imra-el-Keys says, [describing a horse,] لَهُ حَجَبَاتٌ مُشْرِفَاتٌ عَلَى الفَالِ (S, M; or على الفَالِى, as in the O and TA;) [i. e. He has edges of the haunch-bones projecting above, or beyond, the فائل; for] he means على فَائِلِ, having altered the latter word by transposition. (T, S, O, TA.) فَائِلَةٌ: see its dual in the next preceding paragraph, near the middle.

أَفْيَلُ [More, and most, weak, or erroneous; relating to a judgment, or an opinion]. أَفْيَلُ مِنَ الرَّأْىِ الدَّبَرِىِّ is a prov., meaning [More weak] than an opinion that is given after the affair [to which it relates] has passed. (Meyd.) مُفَايِلٌ [in the S and O in art. فأل, with ء, i. e. مُفَائِلٌ,] Playing at the game called الفَيَالُ. (M, O.) المُفَايَلَةُ expl. as a subst.: see الفَيَالُ.

مَفْيُولَآء [a quasi-pl. n. (like مَشْيُوخَآءُ &c.), but one of which the sing. (if it have one) is not mentioned,] The young ones of the فِيل [or elephant]. (O, K.) مُسْتَفْيِلٌ part. n. of 10, q. v. (M.)

(K.) 5 تَلَفَّتَ see 8.8 التفت and ↓ تلفّت, (S, K,) [He looked aside, or about,] the latter of which signifies more than the former, (S,) are from لَفَتَهُ عَنْ رَأْيِهِ: (K:) you say, التفت إِلَى الشَّىْءِ, and إِلَيْهِ ↓ تلفّت, He turned his face towards the thing.
