(S, Msb, K.) A2: Also A tall palm-tree: (O, K:) [see ↓ عُلْبٌ (voce سَاجِدٌ), a coll. gen. n. used as a pl.; or a pl., and, if so, app. a contraction of عُلَبٌ, by poetic license: Sgh, however, adds,] but some say that it is ↓ عَلَبَةٌ [i. e.] بِالتَّحْرِيك.

عِلْبَآءٌ [perfectly decl., because the ء is a letter of quasi-coordination, i. e., added to render the word quasi-coordinate to the class of قِرْطَاسٌ and the like,] The عَصَب of the neck; [app. meaning the upper, cervical, tendinous portion of the trapezius muscle;] (S, O, K; [in all of which, mention is made of the علبآء of the camel, to which it seems to be most commonly applied, and also to that of a man;]) it is one of a pair, and between one علبآء and the other is the place of growth of the mane; (S, O;) Az explains it as specially applied to the thick عَصَب; and IAth, as the عَصَب in the neck, extending to the كَاهِل [or part between the two shoulder-blades]: ISd says that it is syn. with عَقَبٌ [q. v.]: (TA:) [it is also said that] it signifies the عَصَبَة [i. e. tendon, or sinew,] that extends in the neck: (Msb:) or the yellow عَصَبَة in the side (صَفْحَة) of the neck; one of a pair: (A:) and the عِلْبَاوَانِ in a man are [said to be] the two yellow tendons or sinews (العَصَبَتَانِ الصَّفْرَاوَانِ) in the مَتْن [or part next the spine, on either side,] of the neck: (Zj in his “ Khalk el-Insán: ”) [but of all the meanings thus assigned to it, the first seems to be the most proper, or at least the most usual: see Q. Q. 1:] the Arabs used to bind therewith, in the fresh, or moist, state, the أَجْفَان [or sheaths] of their swords, and also their spears when cracked, and it dried upon them, and became strong: (IAth, TA:) the word is masc., (Lh, TA,) or [it is masc. and fem., but] the making it fem. is preferred [though this is contr. to analogy]: (Msb:) the dual is عِلْبَاوَانِ (S, A, O, Msb) and عِلْبَا آنِ; (S, O, Msb, K;) [the former app. the more common, but the latter the more proper;] for the ء [in the sing.] is a letter of quasi-coordination [and therefore properly with tenween]; but if you will, you may liken it to the fem. ء that is in حَمْرَآءُ [of which the dual is more properly حَمْرَاوَانِ], or to the radical ء [or rather the ء that is substituted for the last radical letter] in كِسَآءٌ [of which the dual is more pro-perly كِسَا آنِ]: (S, O:) and the pl. is عَلَابِىُّ. (S, O, K.) You say of a man when he has become advanced in age, تَشَنَّجَ عِلْبَآءُ الرَّجُلِ [The علبآء of the man has become contracted]. (S, O.) b2: The pl. عَلَابِىُّ is expl. in the K as signifying also Lead: and in the S as signifying lead, or a kind thereof: (TA:) El-Kutabee says, “I have been told that العَلَابِىُّ signifies lead; but I am not sure of it: ” and Az says, “I know not any one who has said it, and it is not true; ” (O, TA;) and this is the case: (O:) MF observes that its explanation as signifying lead requires it to be a sing. of a pl. form, or a pl. that has no sing., like أَبَابِيلُ and عَبَادِيدُ: (TA:) in a trad., mention is made of swords of which the ornaments were العلابىّ and الآنُك; (O, TA;) and the coupling of these two words together has led to the supposition that the former means lead; but there is no evading the fact that it is the pl. of علبَآء meaning the عَصَب of the camel. (TA.) عُلْبُوبَةُ القَوْمِ The best persons of the people, or party. (Sh, O, K.) عِلَابٌ A mark made with a hot iron along the length of the neck [of a camel], (S, O, K,) upon, or over, the عِلْبَآء. (TA.) عَلَابِىُّ pl. of عِلْبَآءٌ [q. v.].

(S, O.) مُعَلْبَاةٌ One who has a perforation made in her عِلْبَاوَانِ [dual of عِلْبَآءٌ] with the instrument called مِدْرًى [q. v.]. (O.) مَعْلُوبٌ A conspicuous road (S, O, K, TA) that is marked in its two sides; or marked with the traces of travellers. (TA.) b2: And A sword broken in its edge. (O.) b3: See also مُعَلَّبٌ.

[proper] name: (L: [i. e., accord. to Ibr D, because he uses عُرْجَ as a sing. proper name, curtailed by poetic license from العُرْجَة: if so, this last word seems here to signify a personification of lameness:]) and accord. to him (i. e. IAar), one says ↓ هٰذِهِ عُرَاجُ, meaning This is the female hyena [not hyenas]; the latter word imperfectly decl. (O.) b4: الأَعْرَجُ is also an appellation of A certain deaf, malignant serpent.

[Know ye what is] the reporting of conversation, or of what has been said, from one person to another, to make mischief between them? (El-Jámi' es-Sagheer:) [or,] accord. to IAth, the calumnious speech between men? or, accord. to As, the evil, or foul, speaking? (TA.) And the same verb, (so accord. to my MS. copy of the K,) or عَضِهَ, (so accord. to other copies and the TA,) He uttered falsehood and calumny; as also ↓ اعضه: (K, TA:) [whence] one says, قَدْ يَا رَجُلُ ↓ أَعْضَهْتَ Thou hast uttered calumny, O man. (S, TA.) b2: And عَضَهَ فُلَانًا, (S, * K, TA,) [in some copies of the K عَضِهَ, but it is] like مَنَعَ, [in form], (TA,) inf. n. عَضْهٌ (S, TA) and عَضِيهَةٌ, (TA,) He calumniated such a one, (S, K, TA,) and said that there was in him what was not.

(S, K, TA.) عِضَهٌ [also pronounced ↓ عِضَةٌ] A lie, or falsehood; and a calumny; (Ks, S, K, TA;) as also ↓ عَضِيهَةٌ: (S, TA: *) the former said by Et-Toosee to be a mistranscription for عَضْهٌ; but it is not so: (IB, TA:) and it signifies also enchantment, (S, K, TA,) and divination: (S, TA:) and its pl., (S, K,) or [rather] the pl. of ↓ عِضَةٌ, (thus accord. to the TA and one of my copies of the S,) is عِضُونَ, like as عِزُونَ is of عِزَةٌ: (S, K, TA:) whence the saying in the Kur [xv. 91], الَّذِينَ جَعَلُوا الْقُرْآنَ عِضِينَ [Those who pronounced the Kur-án to be lies, or enchantments]: (S, TA:) accord. to Fr, [the sing.] ↓ عِضَةٌ is originally عِضَهَةٌ, the deficient [radical] letter being ه; (S, * TA;) for عِضَةٌ and عِضُونَ in the dial. of Kureysh signify enchantment [and enchantments], and they term the enchanter عَاضِهٌ: (S:) or, as some say, the deficient [radical] letter is و, (S, TA,) from عَضَوْتُهُ meaning فَرَّقْتُهُ, (S,) or from عَضَّيْتُ الشَّىْءَ meaning فَرَّقْتُهُ; (TA;) because they divided their sayings respecting the Kur-án, pronouncing it to be falsehood, or enchantment, or divination, or poetry. (S, TA.) And one says, ↓ يَالِلْعَضِيهَةِ, with kesr to the ل, [O the lie?] denoting a calling to aid; (S;) or said on an occasion of wondering at a great lie; and with fet-h to the ل [i. e. يَا لَلْعَضِيهَةِ] denoting a calling for aid.

(S.) [See also عَاضِهٌ.]

عِضَاهٌ Any great trees having thorns; these being of two sorts, genuine (خَالِص) and not genuine (غَيْرُ خَالِصٍ): the former sort are the عَرْف, the عُرْفُط, the طَلْح, the سَلَم, the سِدْر, the سَيَال, the سَمْر, the يَنْبُوت, the greater قَتَاد, the كَنَهْبَل, the غَرْب, and the عَوْسَج: the other sort are the شَوْحَط. the نَبْع, the شِرْيَان, the سَرَآء, the نَشَم, the عُجْرُم, and the تأْلَب; and these are called the عِضَاه of bows (عِضَاهُ القِيَاسِ [i. e. القِسِىِّ] pl. of قَوْسٌ): the small thorny trees are called عِضٌّ [q. v.]: and such as are neither عِضّ nor عِضَاه, of thorny trees, are the شُكَاعَى, the حُلَاوَى, the حَاذ, the كُبّ, and the سُلَّج: (S:) or, as Az says in the beginning of his book of herbage and trees, عِضَاهٌ is the general name of certain thorny trees which have different particular names: the genuine عِضَاه (العِضَاهُ الخَالِصُ) are those which are large and have strong thorns: such as are small, of thorny trees, are called عِضٌّ and شِرْسٌ [q. v.]: of the عِضَاه are the سَمُر, the عُرْفَط, the سَيَال, the قَرَظ, the greater قَتَاد, the كَنَهْبَل, the عَوْسَج, the سِدْر, the غَاف, and the غَرْب: these are the genuine عِضَاه: and of the عِضَاه of bows (عِضَاهُ القِيَاسِ i. e. القِسِىِّ) are the شَوْحَط, the نَبْع, the شِرْيَان, and the سَرَآء: (TA voce عِضٌّ:) or عِضَاهٌ signifies any trees having thorns; as the طَلْح and the عَوْسَج: or, accord. to some, except the قَتَاد and the سِدْر: (Msb:) or the greatest of trees: or the خَمْط [q. v., for it is variously explained]: or any having thorns: or such as are great and tall, of these: (K:) [حُبْلَةٌ and سِنْفَةٌ are terms applied to the fruit, or produce, of trees of the kind called عِضَاه: see the former of those words:] a single tree thereof is called عِضَاهَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ عِضَهَةٌ and ↓ عِضَةٌ, (S, Msb, K, [but in the copies of the K the last of these is erroneously written عِضَه,]) the radical ه being rejected in the last, as it is in شَفَةٌ; or, accord. to some, the rejected radical letter is و; (AAF, S, Msb; *) opinions differing on this point because of the different forms of the pl.; (AAF, S, TA;) the pl. being عِضَاهٌ and (of pauc., TA) عِضَوَاتٌ (AAF, S, K, TA, in the CK عِضْواتٌ,) and عِضُونَ; (K;) [the second and third of which are pls. of ↓ عِضَةٌ;] or, accord. to ISd, عِضَاهٌ may be an instance of the kind of pl. that differs from its sing, [only] in respect of the ة, like قَتَادٌ, of which the sing. is قَتَادَةٌ, [i. e., what is more properly termed a coll. gen. n.,] or it may be a broken pl., as though its sing. were عِضَهَةٌ: (TA:) the dim. [of عِضَهَةٌ] is ↓ عُضَيْهَةٌ. (S, TA.) [Hence,] one says, فُلَانٌ يَنْتَجِبُ غَيْرَ عِضَاهِهِ [lit. Such a one takes the back of other than his own عضاه, to tan therewith]; meaning (assumed tropical:) such a one arrogates to himself the poetry of another. (S. See a verse cited in art. نجب.) [See also 1, first sentence.]

[of عَاضِهٌ and عَاضِهَةٌ] in this sense, applied to camels, is عَوَاضِهُ: (S, TA:) or, accord. to 'Alee Ibn-Hamzeh, (IB, TA,) ↓ عَضِهٌ has this meaning; (IB, Msb, TA;) but عَاضِهٌ signifies having a complaint from eating the عِضَاه: (IB, TA:) or ↓ عَضِهٌ has the latter meaning, or the former meaning: or, accord. to AHn, عَضِهَةٌ applied to a she-camel signifies breaking the branches, or twigs, of the عِضَاه.

(M.) الرِّدَافَةُ The function of the رِدْف of a king, (S, O, K,) in the Time of Ignorance: (S: [see رِدْفٌ:]) a term similar to الخِلَافَةُ: (K:) it pertained to the Benoo-Yarbooa, in that time; because there were not among the Arabs any who waged war more than they did against the kings of El-Heereh, who therefore made peace with them on the condition that the ردافة should be assigned to them and that they should abstain from waging war against the people of El-'Irák: (S, O:) it was of two kinds; one being the riding behind the king upon his horse; and the other, what has been explained above, as from the S, voce رِدْفٌ. (Har p. 321.) رُدَافَى: see رَدِيفٌ [of which it is said to be a syn. and also a pl., or pl. of رِدْفٌ, q. v.].

مُرْتَدِفٌ: see رَدِيفٌ, first sentence.

مُتَرَادِفٌ, as a conventional term in lexicology, Synonymous: you say أَلْفَاظٌ مُتَرَادِفَةٌ synonymous words or expressions. (Mz, 27th نوع.) [Loosely explained in the K by the words أَنْ يَكُونَ اسْمًا لِشّىْءٍ وَاحِدٍ, meaning significant of one thing; which is the contr. of مُشْتَرَكٌ, i. e. “ homonymous: ” and in like manner, المُتَرَادِفَةُ is expl. in the O, ان تكون أَسْمَآءً لشىءٍ واحدٍ; and is said to be post-classical.] مُتَرَادِفَاتٌ [its pl. when used as a subst.] signifies Synonyms; i. e. single, or simple, words denoting the same thing considered in one and the same respect or light: thus the مُتَرَادِفَانِ differ from the noun and the definition [thereof], because these [generally] are not both single words; and from the مُتَبَايِنَانِ [or “ two disparates ”] such as السَّيْفُ and الصَّارِمُ, because these denote the same thing considered in two different respects, the one in respect of the substance, and the other in respect of the quality: (Fakhred-Deen [Er-Rázee] in the Mz, 27th نوع:) or they may be two simple words, as اللَّيْثُ and الأَسَدُ; and two compound expressions, as, جُلُوسُ اللَّيْثِ and قُعُودُ الأَسَدِ; and a single word and a compound expression, as المُزُّ and الحُلْوُ الحَامِضُ. (Kull p. 130.) [See also مُرَادِفُ لَفْظٍ.] [This art. is wanting in the copies of the L and TA to which I have had access.]
