(M, K. *) You say, قَطَّ القَلَمَ, (S, Msb,) aor. as above, (K,) and so the inf. n., (Msb,) He nibbed the reed for writing; cut off its head breadthwise, across, or crosswise. (S, * Msb.) And قَطَّ البَيْطَارُ حَافِرَ الدَّابَّةِ The farrier pared, and made even, the hoof of the beast of carriage. (TA.) A2: قَططَ الشَّعَرُ, (S, M, K,) with the reduplication made manifest, (S, M,) and قَطَّ, aor. ـَ (M, Msb, K,) and, of the latter, يَقُطُّ also, [contr. to the general rule,] (Msb,) inf. n., of the former, قَطٌّ, (M, TA,) which is extr., (M,) and of the latter, (M, TA,) قَطَطٌ and قَطَاطَةٌ, (M, K,) The hair was, or became, [frizzled, or] very crisp, very curly, or much twisted, and contracted: (S, * Msb:) or like that of the زَنْجِىّ: (Msb:) or crisp, curly, or twisted, and contracted, and short. (M, K.) A3: قَطَّ السِّعْرُ, (S, M, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ (S, K,) with kesr, (S, TA,) or يَقُطُّ, (M, Msb,) the verb being co-ordinate to قَتَلَ, [contr. to the general rule,] (Msb) inf. n. قَطٌّ (S, M, Msb, K) and قُطُوطٌ; (M, K;) as also قُطَّ, with damm; (Fr, K;) The price was, or became, dear, (S, M, Msb, K,) and high: (Msb:) Sh thought this explanation to be wrong, and the meaning to be the price flagged; but Az says, that in this he was mistaken. (TA.) b2: قَطَّ اللّٰهُ السِّعْرَ God made the price to be, or become, dear. (Fr. TA.) 2 قَطَّّ see 1, first sentence.7 انقطّ quasi-pass. of قَطَّهُ as explained in the first sentence of this art.; It was, or became, cut; &c.; and so ↓ اقتطّ.

R. Q. 1 قَطْقَطَتِ السَّمَآءُ The sky let fall rain, (Az, S, M,) or hail, (M,) such as is termed قِطْقِطٌ: (Az, S, M:) or the sky rained. (K.) قَطْ, signifying حَسْبُ, [explained in exs. here following,] (Lth, S, M, Msb, Mughnee, K,) i. e., (S,) denoting the being satisfied, or content, (Sb, S, M, Msb,) with a thing, (Msb,) is thus written, with fet-h to the ق, and with the ط quiescent, (Sb, S, M, Msb, * Mughnee,) like عَنْ; (K;) and also, (Sb, M, K,) sometimes, (Sb, M,) ↓ قَطٍ, (Sb, M, K,) with tenween, mejroor; (K;) and ↓ قَطِى [distinguished from قَطِى in the next sentence]; (Sb, M, K;) but the term “ mejroor ” is here used contr. to the rules of grammar, as it denotes that قط is decl., whereas it is not. (MF.) It is used as a prefixed noun: you say, قَطْكَ هٰذَا الشَّىْءُ Thy sufficiency [meaning sufficient for thee] is this thing; syn. حَسْبُكَ; (Lth, S, Mughnee; *) and like it is قَدْ: (Lth:) and you also say, using it as a prefixed n., قَطْنِى My sufficiency; syn. حَسْبِى; (Lth, S, * Mughnee;) like قَدْنِى; introducing ن, (Lth, S, TA,) as in عَنِّى and مِنِّى and لَدُنِّى, contr. to rule, for the reason which has been explained in treating of قَدْ, (S, TA,) to preserve the original quiescence of the ط; (Mughnee;) and قَطِى; (S, Msb, Mughnee;) and ↓ قَطِ; (S;) and ↓ قَطَاطِ, (S, M, K,) like قَطَامِ, (S, K,) indecl.; (M;) as signifying حَسْبِى: (S, M, Msb, Mughnee, K:) and, as is said in the Moo'ab, قَطْ عَبْدِ اللّٰهِ دِرْهَمٌ The sufficiency of 'Abd-Allah is a dirhem; [and the like is said by Lth and in the Mughnee;] pausing upon the ط, and making قط to govern a gen. case [as it does virtually in the preceding instances]; and the Basrees say, that this is the right mode, as meaning the like of حَسْبُ زَيْدٍ

دِرْهَمٌ and كَفْىَ زَيْدٍ دِرْهَمٌ: (K:) or some say قَطْ, with jezm; and some say ↓ قَطُ, making it inded. with damm for its termination; each governing what follows it in the gen. case. (M.) b2: It is also a verbal noun, signifying يَكْفِى [It suffices, or will suffice; or it is, or will be, sufficient]; and when this is the case, you say, قَطْنِى, (Mughnee, K,) like as you say, يَكْفِينِى [It suffices me, or will suffice me]; (Mughnee;) or كَفَانِى [which means, emphatically, it suffices me], accord. to the Koofees; (Lth;) which is also allowable when قَطْ is equivalent to حَسْبُ [as we have observed above]: (Mughnee:) and you say also, قَطْكَ, meaning كَفَاكَ [emphatically It suffices thee]: and قَطِى, meaning كَفَانِى [emphatically It suffices me]: (K:) so in the copies of the K; [in the CK, erroneously, قَطَّنِى;] but [it seems that it should be قَطْنِى; for] it is said in the Mughnee and its Expositions, that in this last case the addition of the ن is indispensable: (MF:) and some say, قَطْ عَبْدَ اللّٰهِ دِرْهَمٌ [A dirhem suffices, or will suffice, 'Abd-Allah (in the CK, erroneously, قَطُّ)]; making it to govern the accus. case [as it does virtually in preceding instances]: and some add ن, saying, عَبْدَ اللّٰهِ دِرْهَمٌ ↓ قَطْنُ [meaning the same]: (Lth, K:) [hence,] some say, that [قَطْن in] قَطْنِى is a word originally thus formed without any augmentation, like [حَسْب in] حَسْبِى; (M;) [but J says,] if the ن in قَطْنِى belonged to the root of the word, they had said قَطْنُكَ, which is not known. (S.) b3: It is also syn. with حَسْبُ in the phrase مَا رَأَيْتُهُ إِلَّا مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً فَقَطٌ [I have not seen him, or it, save once, and that was a thing sufficient or that was enough]: (S, Msb: *) or, as is said in the Mutowwel, قَطْ in فَقَطْ is a verbal noun, meaning abstain thou [from further questioning, or the like], as though it were the complement of a condition suppressed [such as “ the case being so ”]: or, as is said in the Mesáïl of Ibn-Es-Seed, the ف is properly prefixed because the meaning is and I was satisfied, or content, therewith; so that the ف is a conjunction: (from a marginal note in a copy of the Mughnee:) [it therefore virtually signifies and no more; or only; and thus it may often be rendered: and this explains what here follows:] when قَط is used to denote paucity, (M, K,) which is said by El-Hareeree, in the Durrah, to be only in negative phrases, (MF,) it is [written قَطْ,] with jezm, (M, K,) and without teshdeed: (M:) you say, مَا عِنْدَكَ إِلَّا هٰذَا قَطْ [which may be rendered Thou hast not save this only]: but when it is followed by a conjunctive ا, it is with kesr; [as in the saying,] مَا عَلِمْتُ إِلَّا هٰذَا قَطِ اليَوْمَ [virtually mean-ing I knew not, or, emphatically, know not, save this only, to-day]: (K:) and also, (K,) when thus using it, (M,) you say, مَا لَهُ إِلَّا عَشَرَةٌ قَطْ يَافَتَى [likewise virtually meaning He has not save ten only, O young man], without teshdeed, and with jezm; and ↓ قَطِّ, with teshdeed and khafd; (Lh, M, K;) the kesreh of the latter, in a case of this kind, being to distinguish the قَطّ which denotes [paucity of] number from قَطُّ, which denotes time. (Lth.) A2: See also قَطُّ, first sentence.

قُطْ: see قَطُّ.

قَطُ: see قَطْ: A2: and see also قَطُّ.

قَطِ: see قَطْ.

قُطُ: see قَطُّ.

قَطٍ: see قَطْ.

قَطَّ: see قَطُّ.

قَطُّ is an adv. noun, (Mughnee,) [generally] denoting time, (S, M, Mughnee,) or past time, (Msb, K,) used to include all past time; (Lth, Mughnee;) as also ↓ قُطُّ, (S, M, Mughnee, K,) the former vowel being assimilated to the latter; (S, Mughnee;) and ↓ قَطُ, (S, M, Mughnee, K,) and ↓ قُطُ; (S, Mughnee, * K;) and some say ↓ قَطْ, (S, Mughnee,) whence قَطُ is formed, by making its termination similar to that of the primary form قَطُّ, to show its origin; (S, M;) or this would be better than قَطُ; (M;) and ↓ قُطْ, (S, M, Mughnee, *) like مُذْ, which is rare: (S, M:) of all these, the first is the most chaste: (Mughnee:) when time is meant by it, it is always with refa, without tenween: (K:) or one says also ↓ قَطِّ, (M, Mughnee, K,) with kesr and teshdeed to the ط, (M, K,) accord. to IAar; (M;) and ↓ قَطَّ, with fet-h and teshdeed to the ط; (M, * K;) as well as with damm to the ط without teshdeed. (K [in some copies of which is here added, “and with refa to the ط; ” to which is further added in the CK, “without teshdeed: ” but I find two copies without any addition of this redundant kind: for by “ refa ” is here meant, as in a former instance, “damm; ”

though improperly, as the word is indecl.]) Yousay, مَا رَأَيْتُهُ قَطُّ &c. [I have not seen him, or it, ever, or hitherto]; (S, M, K;) and مَا فَعَلْتُهُ قَطَّ [I have not done it ever, or hitherto]; (Msb, Mughnee;) i. e., in the time that is past; (Msb, K;) or in what has been cut off of my life; (Mughnee, K;) its derivation being from قَطَطْتُ meaning “ I cut; ” for the past is cut off from the present and the future; and it is indecl. because it implies the meaning of مُذْ and إِلَى; its meaning being مُذْ أَنْ خُلِقْتُ إِلَى الآنَ [since my being created until now]; and with a vowel for its termination to prevent the occurrence of two quiescent letters together; (Mughnee;) and it is with refa [meaning damm for its termination] because it is like قَبْلُ and بَعْدُ: (Lth:) accord. to Ks, (S,) قَطُّ is a contraction of قَطَطُ: (S, M:) Sb says, that it denotes الإِنْتِهَآء; [app. meaning that it signifies abstain thou from further questioning, or the like; for El-Hareeree says, in the Durrah, that قَطُّ and قَطْ both signify the same as حَسْبُ;] and that it is indecl., with damm for its termination, like حَسْبُ. (M.) You say also, مَا فَعَلْتُ هٰذَا قَطْ وَلَا قَطُّ [app. meaning I have not done this alone, nor ever]: (K, TA: [in the CK قَطُّ ولا قُطُ, but]) the former قط is with jezm to the ط, and the latter is with teshdeed and damm to the ط. (TA.) And يَا فَتَى ↓ مَا زَالَ عَلَى هٰذَا مُذْ قُطَّ [He, or it, has not ceased to be after this manner during all past time, O young man]; with damm to the ق, and with teshdeed. (Lh, M.) It is used only in negative phrases relating to past time; the saying of the vulgar لَا أَفْعَلُهُ قَطُّ [meaning I will not do it ever] being incorrect; (Mughnee, K; [in the CK قَطُ]) for with respect to the future you say عَوْضُ (TA) [or أَبَدًا]: or it is mostly so used, accord. to Ibn-Málik: (MF:) but it occurs after an affirmative phrase in places in El-Bukháree, (K,) in his Saheeh; (TA;) for ex., أَطْوَلُ صَلَاةٍ صَلَّيْتُهَا قَطُّ [The longest prayer which I have prayed ever]: and in the Sunan of Aboo-Dawood; تَوَضَّأَ ثَلَاثًا قَطُّ [He performed the وُضُوْء three times ever]: and Ibn-Málik asserts it to be right, and says that it is one of the things which have been unperceived by many of the grammarians: (K:) El-Karmánee, however, interprets these instances as though they were negative. (TA.) قَطِّ: see قَطْ, near the end of the paragraph: A2: and see also قَطُّ, in the first sentence.

قُطُّ: see قَطُّ, in two places.

شَعَرٌ قَطٌّ, and ↓ قَطَطٌ, (M, Msb, K,) and ↓ قَطِطٌ, (TA,) Crisp, curly, or twisted and contracted, and short, hair: (M, K:) or hair that is very crisp, very curly, or much twisted and contracted: or, accord. to the T, ↓ قَطَطٌ meanshair of the زَنْجِىّ: (Msb:) or you say, ↓ جَعْدٌ قَطَطٌ, meaning very crisp, very curly, or much twisted and contracted. (S.) b2: رَجُلٌ قَطٌّ, and ↓ قَطَطٌ, (Msb,) or رَجُلٌ قَطُّ الشَّعَرِ, and ↓ قَطَطُ الشَّعَرِ, (S, M, K,) A man whose hair is crisp, curly, or twisted and contracted, and short: (M, K:) or whose hair is very crisp, very curly, or much twisted and contracted; (S, * Msb;) as also ↓ قِطَاطٌ: (K: accord. to some copies; but accord. to other copies, as a pl. in this sense: [the reading of the latter is more probably correct, and is that of the TA:]) or beautifully crisp or curly or twisted and contracted: (TA:) the pl. [of قَطٌّ] is أَقْطَاطٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and قَطُّونَ and قِطَاطٌ; and [of ↓ قَطَطٌ] قَطَطُونَ: (M, K:) the epithet applied to a woman is قَطَّةٌ, and ↓ قَطَطٌ without ة. (M, Msb.) A2: See also ↓ قَاطٌّ.

Hence the saying in the Kur, [xxxviii. 15,] رَبَّنَا عَجِّلْ لَنَا قِطَّنَا قَبْلَ يَوْمِ الحِسَابِ (tropical:) [O our Lord, hasten to us our portion before the day of reckoning]: accord. to some, our portion of punishment: but accord. to Sa'eed Ibn-Jubeyr, it means, of Paradise. (TA.) b3: (assumed tropical:) A writing; (Fr, S, Msb;) [such as that of a man's works;] and hence, accord. to Fr, the words of the Kur cited above; those words being said in derision: (TA:) or a writing of reckoning: (M, K:) or a written obligation: (M:) or it signifies also a written obligation binding one to give a gift or present; (S, K, TA;) and hence the saying in the Kur cited above: (S:) pl. قُطُوطٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) which Az explains as meaning gifts, and stipends; so called because they were issued written in the form of notes and statements of obligation upon cut pieces of paper or the like. (TA.) b4: (assumed tropical:) An hour, or a portion, (سَاعَة,) of the night. (M, K.) You say مَضَى قِطٌّ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ (assumed tropical:) [An hour, or a portion, of the night passed]. (Th, M.) A2: A male cat: (S, M, Msb, K:) the female is called قِطَّةٌ: (Lth, S, M, Msb:) Kr disallowed this latter; and IDrd says, I do not think it to be genuine Arabic; (M;) but to this it is objected that it occurs in traditions: (MF:) the pl. is قِطَاطٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and قِطَطَةٌ, (M, K,) or قِطَطٌ. (Msb.) قَطَطٌ: see قَطٌّ, throughout.

(Msb. See 4.) A6: [عُلَّ الشَّىْءُ is mentioned in the S, with the addition ↓ فَهُوَ مَعْلُولٌ, but without any explanation; perhaps as meaning The thing was caused; from عِلَّةٌ “ a cause,” of which مَعْلُولٌ (q. v.) is the correlative: but the context seems to indicate that it means the thing was used for the purpose of diverting from some want: Golius appears to have read عَلَّ, and to have been led by what next precedes it in the S to render it loco alterius rei fuit lactavitve res.]2 تَعْلِيلٌ signifies The giving to drink after giving to drink.

(TA.) See also 1, first sentence. b2: And اعلّ القَوْمُ The people, or party, were, or became, persons whose camels had drunk the second time. (S, O, K. *) A2: اعلّهُ اللّٰهُ God caused him to be diseased, sick, or ill; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ عَلَّهُ, aor. ـُ (Msb.) One says, لَا أَعَلَّكَ اللّٰهُ, meaning May God not smite thee with a disease, a sickness, or an illness. (S, O.) b2: And اعلّهُ signifies also He made him, or pronounced him, to have an excuse (جَعَلَهُ ذَا عِلَّةٍ): whence إِعْلَالَاتُ الفُقَهَآءِ [The excusings of the lawyers].

(TA.) b2: And تَعَالَلْتُ النَّاقَةَ (assumed tropical:) I elicited from the she-camel what power she had [remaining] of going on. (S, O.) b3: And تَعَالَلْتُ نَفْسِى signifies the same as تَلَوَّمْتُهَا [app. meaning I waited for myself to accomplish a want, or an object of desire, so that I might avoid blame: for تَلَوَّمَ as signifying اِنْتَظَرَ and تَنَظَّرَ is trans. as well as intrans.; and seems to be originally similar to تَأَثَّمَ and تَحَنَّثَ &c.]. (TA.) b4: See also 5, last sentence.8 اعتلّ: see 1, latter half. b2: [Hence, اعتلّت الرِّيحُ (assumed tropical:) The wind became faint, or feeble.]

A2: See also 5, first sentence. b2: Also He excused himself; or adduced, or urged, an excuse, or a plea; (MA, K, * TA; *) or he laid hold upon a plea, or an allegation. (El-Fárábee, Msb.) You say, اعتلّ عَلَيْهِ بِعِلَّةٍ (S, MA, O) He adduced, or urged, an excuse, or a plea, or pretext, for it. (MA.) And hence, اِعْتِلَالَاتُ الفُقَهَآءِ [The pleas, or allegations, of the lawyers, which they adduce, or upon which they lay hold]. (Msb.) A3: اعتلّهُ He hindered, prevented, impeded, or withheld, him; turned him back or away; retarded him; or diverted him by occupying him otherwise; from an affair. (S, O.) b2: And (S, O, in the K “ or ”) He accused him of a crime, an offence, or an injurious action, that he had not committed. (S, O, K.) R. Q. 2 تَعَلْعَلَ He, or it, was, or became, unsteady, or shaky, and lax, or uncompact. (K.) عَلْ and لَعَلْ and عَلْكَ and لَعَلْكَ: see عَلَّ, below.

A2: عَلْ عَلْ (K, TA, in the O written as one word,) A cry by which one chides sheep or goats (Yaakoob, O, K) and camels. (O.) عَلُ: see art. علو.

عَلَّ and لَعَلَّ (S, O, Mughnee, K) are dial. vars.; or the former is the original, the ل being augmentative, (S, O, Mughnee,) prefixed for the purpose of corroboration: the meaning is expectation of a thing hoped for or feared; (S, O;) importing hope, or eager desire, and fear, or caution: (S, O, K:) each is a particle, like إِنَّ and لَيْتَ and كَأَنَّ and لٰكِنَّ: (S, O:) and like عَسَى [q. v.] in meaning; but like إِنَّ in government; (Mughnee;) governing the subject in the accus. case, and the predicate in the nom.: one says, عَلَّكَ تَفْعَلُ [Maybe, or perhaps, thou wilt do such a thing], and عَلِّى أَفْعَلُ [May-be I shall do], and لَعَلِّى أَفْعَلُ; and sometimes they said, عَلَّنِى and لَعَلَّنِى; (S, O;) and one says also ↓ عَلْ and ↓ لَعَلْ, with the ل quiescent, and ↓ عَلْكَ and ↓ لَعَلْكَ: (O:) [and accord. to general usage, one says, لَعَلَّ زَيْدًا قَائِمٌ May-be Zeyd is standing:] and the tribe of 'Okeyl made each to govern the subject in the gen. case, (S, O, Mughnee,) saying, لَعَلَّ زَيْدٍ قَائِمٌ; (S, O;) and allowed the pronouncing عَلِّ and لَعَلِّ: (Mughnee:) sometimes its subject is suppressed, as in عَلَّ أَنْ أَتَقَدَّمَ, meaning لَعَلَّنِى أَنْ

أَتَقَدَّمَ [May-be I shall precede]: (Ham p. 517:) the Koofees allow the mansoob aor. [immediately] after, on the authority of the reading of Hafs, [in the Kur xl. 38,] لَعَلِّى أَبْلُغَ الأَسْبَابَ [May-be I may reach the places of ascent, or the regions, or tracts, of the heavens]. (Mughnee.) Other dial. vars. of عَلّ are mentioned in art. لعل [q. v.]. (K.) عَلٌّ: see عَلَلٌ, in two places.

A2: Also [in the CK erroneously with damm to the ع in all the senses here following that are expl. in the K] An emaciated tick: (S, O:) or a big-bodied tick: or a small-bodied one: (K, TA:) pl. عِلَالٌ. (TA.) b2: And A man advanced in age, (S, O, K,) small in body, (S, O,) or slender, or spare; (K;) as being likened to the tick. (S, O.) And anything slender (دَقِيق, for رَقِيق in the K is a mistranscription, TA) in body, advanced in age. (M, K, * TA.) And A man whose skin is contracted by disease. (IDrd, O, K.) b3: Also One in whom is no good: Esh-Shenfarà says, وَلَسْتُ بِعَلٍّ [And I am not one in whom is no good: but the context seems rather to require one of the other meanings mentioned above: and another reading (بِفِلٍّ) is mentioned by De Sacy, in his Chrest. Ar., 2nd ed., ii. 359]. (O, TA.) b4: Also A man who visits women much, or often, (K, TA,) and diverts himself with them. (TA.) b5: And A big-bodied, large he-goat. (K.) عُلٌّ and عِلٌّ: see عُلْعُلٌ.

عَلَّةٌ A [single] second draught. (Mgh.) b2: and hence, (Mgh,) A woman's fellow-wife; her husband's wife: (Mgh, Msb, * K:) or, as some say, a step-mother: but the former is the more correct meaning: (Mgh:) pl. عَلَّاتٌ. (Msb.) Whence, بَنُو العَلَّاتِ The sons of one father by different mothers: as though, when he added by marriage a second wife to the first, he took a second draught. (S, * Mgh, O, * Msb, * K. *) أَوْلَادُ الأَخْيَافِ means the contr. of this: and أَوْلَادُ الأَعْيَانِ, the sons of the same father and mother. (Msb.) Accord. to IB, one says, هُمَا أَخَوَانِ مِنْ ضَرَّتَيْنِ [They two are brothers from two fellow-wives]; but they did not say, مِنْ ضَرَّةٍ: and accord. to ISh, one says, هُمْ بَنُو عَلَّةٍ and أَوْلَادُ عَلَّةٍ. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., الأَنْبِيَآءُ بَنُو عَلَّاتِ, (Mgh,) or أَوْلَادُ عَلَّاتٍ, (TA,) meaning The prophets are of different mothers, but of one religion: (T, Mgh, TA:) or of one faith, but of different religious laws or ordinances. (Nh, TA.) A2: See also عُلَالَةٌ.

عِلَّةٌ An accident that befalls an object and causes its state, or condition, to become altered. (TA.) b2: And hence, (TA,) A disease, sickness, or malady; (S, O, K, TA;) because, by its befalling, the state becomes altered from strength to weakness; so says El-Munáwee in the “ Tow-keef: ” (TA:) or a disease that diverts [from the ordinary occupations; app. regarded as being from what next follows]: pl. عِلَلٌ (Msb) [and عِلَّاتٌ]. b3: Also An accident, or event, that diverts the person to whom it occurs from his course, (S, O, K,) or from the object of his want: (M:) as though it became a second occupation hindering him from his former occupation. (S, O.) b4: and [hence,] an excuse; an apology; a plea whereby one excuses himself. (TA.) Hence, (K, * TA,) لَاتَعْدَمُ خَرْقَآءُ عِلَّةً [expl. in art. خرق]. (K, TA.) [See also another ex. in art. سأل, conj. 3.] b5: And A cause: [and particularly an efficient cause:] (M, K:) one says, هٰذَا عِلَّةٌ لِهٰذَا This is a cause of this: (M:) and هٰذِهِ عِلَّتُهُ This is its cause: (K:) [and ↓ عِلَّةٌ وَمَعْلُولٌ Cause and effect; a phrase of frequent occurrence in theological and other works:] and [sometimes عِلَّةٌ signifies a pretext, or pretence:] it is said in a trad. of 'Áïsheh, فَكَانَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمٰنِ يَضْرِبُ رِجْلِى

بِعِلَّةِ الرَّاحِلَةِ, meaning And 'Abd-Er-Rahmán was beating my leg with the pretence, or pretext, of his beating the side of the camel with his leg. (TA.) b6: The phrase عَلَى عِلَّاتِهِ means In every case. (S, O, K.) Zubeyr says, إِنَّ البَخِيلَ مَلُومٌ حَيْثُ كَانَ وَاٰ كِنَّ الجَوَادَ عَلَى عِلَّاتِهِ هَرِمُ [Verily the niggard is blamed wherever he be; but the liberal in all his circumstances is Herim]: (S, O:) meaning his companion Herim Ibn-Sinán El-Murree. (S in art. هرم.) عَلَلٌ and ↓ عَلٌّ [both mentioned in the first paragraph as inf. ns.] The second draught: or a drinking after drinking, uninterruptedly: (K:) or the former signifies a second drinking; one says عَلَلٌ بَعْدَ نَهَلٍ [a second drinking after a first drinking]: (S, O:) or a drinking after drinking: (Msb:) and the second watering of camels; the first being termed the نَهَل: (As, TA:) these two terms are also similarly used in relation to suckling: and one of the unknown poets says, ثُمَّ انْثَنَى مِنْ بَعْدِ ذَا فَصَلَّى

↓ عَلَى النَّبِىِّ نَهَلًا وَعَلَّا [Then he turned, or turned away or back, after that, and blessed the Prophet a first time and a second time]. (TA.) b2: Also, the former, Food that has been eaten. (Kr, TA.) [See also نَهَلٌ.]

عُلُلٌ: see عُلْعُلٌ.

عِلَالٌ: see 3; of which it is said in the K to be the subst., though app. the inf. n. عَلُولٌ Some light food with which the sick person is diverted or occupied [so as to be rendered contented]: pl. عُلُلٌ. (TA.) عَلِيلٌ Diseased, sick, or ill; (S, Msb;) and so with ة applied to a woman: (Mgh:) or, the former, rendered diseased &c. by God; [being used as the pass. part. n. of أَعَلَّهُ in the phrase اعلّهُ اللّٰهُ;] (K;) as also ↓ مُعَلٌّ, (Msb, K,) agreeably with rule, but this is seldom used; (Msb;) and ↓ مَعْلُولٌ, from عَلَّهُ اللّٰهُ; (Msb;) or this last should not be said, for, though the theologians say it, it is not of established authority. (K, * TA.) A2: عَلِيلَةٌ also signifies A woman perfumed repeatedly: (AA, O, K, TA:) and accord. to AA, ↓ مُعَلَّلٌ, as used in a verse of Imra-el-Keys, signifies perfumed time after time. (O.) [See also مُعَلِّلٌ.]

عُلَالَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ تَعِلَّةٌ (S, * K) and ↓ عَلَّةٌ, (K, TA,) with fet-h, (TA, [in the CK العِلَّةُ is put for العَلَّةُ,]) A thing with which a person, (S, K,) or a child, (TA,) is diverted, or occupied so as to be diverted, and contented, or satisfied, (S, K, TA,) such as talk, and singing, and food, &c., (Har p. 308,) [or such as a small quantity of food by which the craving of his stomach is allayed,] in order that he may be quiet. (TA.) It is said in a trad., accord. to different relations thereof, that dates are the ↓ تَعِلَّة of the child or of the guest. (TA.) b2: Also, the first, accord. to the copies of the K, What is drawn from the udder after the first فِيقَة: but accord. to IAar, what is drawn from the udder before the first فِيقَة [or milk that collects in the udder between two milkings], and before the second فيقة collects: also termed عُرَاكَةٌ and دُلَاكَةٌ: (TA:) [or] the milking that is between two milkings: (S, O:) [or] it signifies also the middle milking of the camel that is milked in the first part and the middle and the last part of the day: (K:) or, as some say, the milk that she excerns [into her udder] after the milking of the copious flow thereof. (TA.) b3: And A remaining portion of milk (S, O, K, TA) in the udder: (TA:) and (assumed tropical:) of other things: [ for instance,] (tropical:) of the course [of a beast]: (K:) (tropical:) of the running of a horse; (S, O, TA;) the former portion whereof is termed بُدَاهَةٌ: (TA:) and (assumed tropical:) of anything: (S, K:) as (tropical:) of the flesh of a sheep or goat: and (tropical:) of the strength of an old man. (TA.) عُِلِّىٌّ: see the next paragraph, in three places.

عِلِّيَّةٌ (S, O, K) and عُلِّيَّةٌ (O, K) An upper chamber; syn. غُرْفَةٌ: pl. عَلَالِىُّ. (S, O, K.)

עֶלְיוֹן

signifying “ high,” or “ higher,”] and is said to be A place in the Seventh Heaven, to which ascend the souls of the believers: or the most elevated of the Paradises; like as سِجِّين is the most elevated of the places of the fires [of Hell]: or rather it is properly a name of the inhabitants thereof; for this [sort of] pl. is peculiar to rational beings: (TA:) it is mentioned again in art. علو [in which see other explanations].

In some one or more of the copies of the S, الذَّكَرُ مِنَ القَنَافِذِ is erroneously put for الذكر من القَنَابِرِ. (TA.) b3: And The membrum virile, (S, O,) or the penis, (K,) or the جُرْدَان, (IKh, TA,) when in a state of distention: (IKh, TA, and so in a copy of the S:) or such as, when in a state of distention, does not become hard, or strong.
