(M.) And one says, دَامِلِ القَوْمَ, (so in a copy of the S,) or القَوْمَ ↓ أَدْمِلِ, (so in two other copies of the S, [but only the former agrees with the context,]) meaning اِطْوِهِمْ عَلَى مَا فِيهِمْ [i. e.

(M.) b4: Refuse that the sea rejects, (Lth, T, M, * K,) consisting of dead creatures therein, (Lth, T,) and the like, ('Eyn, TT,) such as [the shells, or shell-fish, called]

أَصْدَاف and مَنَاقِيف, (Lth, T, TA,) or صَدَف and مَنَاقِف, (M,) and نَبَّاح. (Lth, T, M, TA. [The last word is erroneously written in one place, in the TT, نَبَّاج; and in another place, in the same, سُبَّاح.]) b5: An unsoundness, or infection, in the spadix of the palm-tree, (M, Mgh, K,) so that it becomes black, (M, K,) before it attains to maturity, (M, Mgh, K,) or before it is fecundated: (IDrd:) also termed دَمَانٌ, [q. v.,] (Mgh, TA,) from دِمْنٌ meaning سِرْقِين. (Mgh.) دُمَّلٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ دُمَلٌ (S, M, K) A kind of purulent pustule, or imposthume; (T, S;) i. q. خُرَاجٌ; (M, K;) well known: (Msb:) [said to be] an appellation applied as ominating good, (M, O,) like مَفَازَةٌ applied to a place of destruction; (O;) or because it tends to healing: (T:) said by IF to be Arabic: (Msb:) by As said to be used in Arabic: (T:) [app. of Pers\. origin:] in Pers\. دُنْبَلٌ, and بُنَاوَرٌ: (MA:) [now vulgarly pronounced دِمَّلٌ and دِمِّل: and applied to any pimple or pustule, and to a boil: see حِبْنٌ:] the pl.

أَدْهَم, (S, K,) i. e. black. (S, * K, * TA.) and ↓ ادهامّ, inf. n. اِدْهِمَامٌ, It (a thing) was, or became, black. (S, K.) [Hence,] الزَّرْعُ ↓ ادهامّ The seedproduce [became of a dark green colour, or] was overspread with blackness, by reason of abundance of moisture, or irrigation. (JK, TA.) And in like manner, الرَّوْضَةُ ↓ ادهامّت and ادهمّت [The meadow became of a dark green colour, &c.]. (JK.)

A2: Also, (S, TA,) or ↓ دُهْمٌ, (JK, and so in one place in the TA,) A numerous company: (Lth, JK, TA:) or a multitude: pl.دُهُومٌ. (S.)

[But I do not find either of these two significations in any other lexicon.]) الدَّهْمَانُ The night: opposed to الوَضَّاحُ meaning “ the day. ” (L in art. وضح.) [Hence,] ثِنْىُ دَهْمَانَ The prayer of nightfall: opposed to بِكْرُ الوَضَّاحِ meaning “the prayer of morning.” (L and K in that art.: but in the CK and in a MS. copy of the K, instead of دَهْمَانَ we find دُهْمانَ.) دُهَامٌ: see أَدْهَمُ: b2: and see دُهَامِيَّةٌ.

(TA.) A2: دُهَيْمٌ also signifies Foolish, or stupid. (K.) إِبِلٌ دُهَامِيَّةٌ Certain camels: so called in relation to ↓ الدُّهَامُ, the name of a certain stallion-camel. (TA.) الدُّهَيْمَآءُ: see الدُّهَيْمُ.

أَدْهَمُ Black; (JK, S, * Mgh, Msb, * K;) as also ↓ دُهَامٌ: (K:) the former is applied in this sense to a horse, (S, * Mgh, Msb, * TA,) and to a camel, &c.: (TA:) or, applied to a camel, of a deep ashcolour without any tinge of white; (As, S, Msb, K;) when of a deeper hue, so as to be very black, he is termed جَوْنٌ: (S:) or, as some say, applied to a camel, like أَصْفَرُ, [in this case meaning black with some intermixture of yellow,] but less black: (TA:) fem. دَهْمَآءُ; which, when applied to a sheep (S, M, Msb, K) or goat, (S, Msb,) means of a pure or an unmixed brown colour (خَالِصَةُ الحُمْرَةِ): (S, M, Msb, K:) pl. دُهْمٌ.

And لَا آتِيكَ مَا حَنَّتِ الدَّهْمَآءُ [I will not come to thee as long as she (among the camels) that is of a deep ash-colour without any tinge of white reiterates her yearning cry after her young one; meaning, ever].

(K.) and وَطْأَةٌ دَهْمَآءُ A new, or recent, footstep, or footprint: and غَبْرَآءُ means “becoming effaced:” or the former means one that is becoming effaced, because it has become obscure to him who seeks it; (JK;) or an old footstep, or footprint: and حَمْرَآءُ means one that is “new, or recent.” (S.) [See also أَغْبَرُ.] b4: الدَّهْمَآءُ also signifies (tropical:) The cooking-pot: (JK, S, A, K:) or the black cooking-pot: (ISh, TA:) and the old cooking-pot. (K. [But it is implied in the TA that this last meaning is a mistake, occasioned by an omission; and that, instead of القِدْرُ وَالقَدِيمَةُ, (in the CK القِدْرُ القَدِيمَةُ,) we should read, القِدْرُ وَالوَطْأَةُ الدَّهْمَآءُ القَدِيمَةُ, explained above. Accord. to Golius, on the authority of a gloss in the KL, أَبُو الأَدْهَمِ signifies The great cooking-pot in which a whole sheep is cooked at once.]) b5: And The twenty-ninth night of the [lunar] month: (JK, K:) because of its blackness. (TA.) and [the pl.] الدُّهْمُ Three nights of the [lunar] month [during which is the change of the moon]: (K:) because they are black.

(K, TA.) 4 اضآء, (M, Msb, K,) said of a thing, (M,) [as, for instance,] of the moon, (Msb,) or اضآءت, said of fire (النَّار,), (A 'Obeyd, S, O,) inf. n. إِضَآءٌ; (Msb;) and ↓ ضَآءَ, (M, Msb, K,) or ضَآءَت, (S, O,) aor. ـُ (M,) or ـُ (S,) inf. n. ضَوْءٌ (S, M, O, Msb, K) and ضُوْءٌ, (S, O, K,) or the latter is a simple subst.; (Msb;) but the former verb is preferred; (TA;) It gave light, was light or bright, shone, or shone brightly. (Msb, K, * TA.) [See also an ex. of ↓ the latter verb in a verse cited voce أُفُقٌ; and cited here in the TA.] and أَضَأْتُ لَهُ [I gave light to him]. (M.) A2: The former verb is also trans.: you say, أَضَآءَتْهُ النَّارُ [The fire made it to be light or bright, to shine, or to shine brightly]: (S, O:) and أَضَأْتُهُ and ↓ ضَوَّأْتُهُ [I made it to give light, to be light or bright, to shine, or to shine brightly]: (M, Msb, * K:) and أَضَأْتُ بِهِ البَيْتَ and بِهِ ↓ ضَوَّأْتُهُ [I lighted, or illumined, with it (i. e. with a lamp or the like) the house, or chamber, or tent]. (M.) b2: [Hence,] اضآء بِبَوْلِهِ (tropical:) He ejected his urine [so as to make its drops to glisten]; or emitted it and then stopped it; syn. حَذَفَ بِهِ; (K, TA;) or خَذَفَ بِهِ; (so in a copy of the M, as on the authority of Kr;) or, as in the A, أَذْرَعَ بِهِ. (TA.) b3: and they said مَا أَضْوَأَهُ [How light, or bright, is it!]. (S voce أَظْلَمَ [q. v.].) b4: And اضآء signifies also أَصَابَ ضَوْءًا [He saw (lit. lighted on, or found,) light, or brightness]. (T voce أَظْلَمَ [q. v.]) 5 تضوّأ He stood in the dark to see people by the light of their fire, (Az, K, TA,) without their seeing him. (Az, TA.) And تضوّا امْرَأَةً [He stood in the dark to see a woman by the light of her fire, without her seeing him]. (TA.) 10 اِسْتَضَأُتُ بِهِ [I sought to obtain light by means of it; I made use of it for light]. (M, K.) لَا تَسْتَضِيؤُوا بِنَارِ أَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ [lit. Seek not ye to obtain light by means of the fire of the people of belief in a plurality of gods], (O, K,) a saying of the Prophet, (O,) means (tropical:) seek not ye counsel, or advice, of the believers in a plurality of gods, in affairs: (O, K:) because he whose affair is confused and dubious to him is as though he were in darkness. (O.) ضَوْءٌ and ↓ ضُوْءٌ and ↓ ضِيَآءٌ (S, M, O, K) and ↓ ضِوَآءٌ, (M, K,) the last of which is [erroneously] written in the L ضَوَآءٌ, (TA,) signify the same, (S, M, O, K,) i. e. Light, syn. نُورٌ, (K, TA,) accord. to the leading lexicologists; but see what follows: (TA:) and ضَوْءٌ is an inf. n. of ضَآءَ, (S, M, O, Msb, K,) and so is ↓ ضُوْءٌ, (S, O, K,) or this is a simple subst. from ضَآءَ, and so is ↓ ضِيَآءٌ, which is also, sometimes, written ↓ ضِئَآءٌ, from أَضَآءَ as syn. with ضَآءَ: (Msb:) the pl. of ضَوْءٌ (M, TA) and ↓ ضُوْءٌ (M) is أَضْوَآءٌ; and ↓ ضِيَآءٌ is sometimes a pl., (M, TA,) as Zj states it to be: (TA:) some say that ضَوْءٌ has a more intensive signification than نُورٌ, and that hence God has likened his direction [the Kur-án] to النُّور rather than to الضَّوْء; because if it were otherwise, no one had erred: and that hence, also, [in the Kur x. 5,] the sun is termed ↓ ضِيَآء; and the moon, نُورٌ: it is also said that ضَوْءٌ signifies the rays that are diffused by what is termed نُورٌ: the kádee Zekereeyà affirms that these two words are syn. by their original application, but that ضَوْءٌ is more forcible accord. to usage: and some say that الضَّوْءُ signifies that [light] which subsists by itself, as [that of] the sun, and fire; and النُّورُ, to that which subsists by some other thing [as does the light of the moon]. (MF, TA.) ضُوْءٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

ضِوَآءٌ: see ضَوْءٌ.

ضِيَآءٌ and ضِئَآءٌ: see ضَوْءٌ, in five places.

(TA.) One says, فِيهَا ضِرَاحٌ [It has a habit of kicking with the hind leg: or, with the fore leg]; a phrase mentioned by I'Ab.

برود: others relate it with ج; and in this case he says that it means “ we rent asunder ” or “ open. ” (Az, O, TA.) A2: ضَرَحَ [as though quasipass. of ضَرَحَهُ] signifies also He, or it, was, or became, distant, or remote; or removed to a distance; went far away. (L.)

(TA.) b2: And ضاع, (K, TA,) inf. n. ضَيَاعٌ and ضَيْعَةٌ, (TA,) It (a thing) was left; left, or let, alone; or neglected. (K, TA.) Hence, ضاعت الإِبِلُ, and ضاع العِيَالُ, The camels, and the family, or household, were left untended, and unminded; and were left alone, or neglected. (TA.) A2: ضاع, aor. ـِ said of perfume, or sweet odour, i. q. ضاع having for its aor. ـُ (Har p. 670.) [See 5 in art. ضوع: and see also 5 in the present art.]2 ضيّع الشَّىْءَ, (O, Msb, K,) inf. n. تَضْيِيعٌ; (S;) and ↓ اضاعهُ, (O, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِضَاعَةٌ; (S;) both signify the same; (S, O, Msb, K;) He made, or caused, the thing to perish, or become lost; he destroyed it, wasted it, or lost it. (Msb, K, TA.) Hence, ضَيَّعُوا فُلَانًا is used by the vulgar as meaning They beheaded such a one with the sword. (TA.) It is said in a prov., الصَّيْفَ ضَيَّعْتِ اللَّبَنَ [In the spring, or in the summer, thou losedst the milk], in which the ت is with kesr when the words are addressed to a male, or to a female, or to a pl. number, because originally addressed to a woman, the wife of a wealthy man, whom she disliked because of his being aged, wherefore he divorced her, and a poor man married her, and she sent to her first husband requesting a gift, and he answered her thus; (S, O, K; *) الصيف being in the accus. case as an adv. n.: so says Yaakoob: (S, O:) or El-Aswad Ibn-Hurmuz divorced his wife El-' Anood Esh-Shenneeyeh, (O, K,) of the BenooShenn, (TA,) preferring to her a beautiful and wealthy woman of his people; (O, K; *) then there occurred between them what led to their separation, and he sought to obtain [again] El-' Anood, and sent a message to her; but in replying to him she said, أَنْشَأْتَ تَطْلُبُ وَصْلَنَا فِى الصَّيْفِ ضَيَّعْتَ اللَّبَنْ [Thou hast begun to seek our union: in the spring, or in the summer, thou losedst the milk]: (O, * K:) the ت in this case being with fet-h. (K. [See more in Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 197-8, or in Har p. 577; in both of which, however, and in the O, ضيّعت is with kesr in the latter case, as in the former.]) [One says also, ضيّع عَهْدَهُ, meaning He broke his compact, contract, or covenant]. The phrase, in a trad., نَهَى عَنْ المَالِ ↓ إِضَاعَةِ means He forbade the expending of wealth otherwise than in obedience to God, and the squandering thereof, and extravagance. (TA.) b2: See also the next paragraph.4 اضاع الشَّىْءَ: see 2, first sentence, and last but one. b2: Also, [and app. ↓ ضيّعهُ likewise, accord. to the K,] He left the thing; left it, or let it, alone; or neglected it. (K, TA.) Yousay, اضاع عِيَالَهُ He neglected his family, or household; omitted taking good care of them, or being mindful of them. (TA.) وَمَا كَانَ اللّٰهُ لِيُضِعَ

إِيمَانَكُمْ, in the Kur [ii. 138], means And God will not neglect [or make to be lost] your prayer. (TA.) أَضَاعُوا الصَّلَاةَ, in the same, [xix. 60,] means Who neglected, or omitted, prayer, (Bd, TA,) altogether: (TA:) or deferred it: (Bd:) or who performed it in other than its right time: but the first explanation is more suitable, for the unbelievers are meant thereby. (TA.) A2: اضاع [is also intrans., and] may signify He found his affair to be coming to nought. (Ham p. 33.) b2: And His estates (ضِيَاعُهُ) became wide-spread, (S, O, K,) and many, or numerous. (S, O, Msb, K.) 5 تضيّع, said of the wind, It blew: because it [often] destroys that upon which it blows: so says Er-Rághib. (TA. [But it may be from what here follows.]) b2: Said of musk, It diffused its odour, or fragrance: (S, O, K;) a dial. var. of تضوّع: (S:) or an instance of substitution [of ى for و]. (O.) [See also 1, last explanation.]

(TA.) And, (T, O, Msb, K,) as used by the Arabs [of the desert], who know not the word in any other sense than this, (T, O,) A craft, or handicraft, by which one gains his subsistence; a mode, or manner, of gain; or any habitual work or occupation of a man; (T, O, Msb, K) as the sewing of skins or boots and the like; and the twisting of ropes; and the weaving, or plaiting, of palm-leaves; and the culture of palm-trees (عَمَلُ النَّخْلِ); and the pasturing of camels; and the like thereof; (T, O;) including the sowing, or tilling, of land: (TA:) or the ضَيْعَة of the Arabs was the management, or tending, of camels and of sheep and goats: and the term includes a man's craft, or handicraft, or means of gain: (Sh, O:) and his traffic: (Sh, O, K:) one says to a man, قُمْ إِلَى ضَيْعَتِكَ [Arise to thy craft, &c.]: (Sh, O:) and كُلُّ رَجُلٍ

وَضَيْعَتَهُ, [Every man should occupy himself with his proper craft, &c.] (Msb.) أَفْشَى اللّٰهُ, ضَيْعَتَهُ, occurring in a trad., means God made or may God make, his means of subsistence to be abundant. (TA.) And one says, فَشَتْ ضَيْعَتُهُ, [or, more commonly, فَشَتْ عَلَيْهِ ضَيْعَتُهُ, as in the TA in art. فشو, &c.,] which is said to mean His property was, or became, large, or abundant, [or wide-spread,] so that he was unable to collect it together: and [hence] his means of attaining his object [or his affairs (as in the TA in art. فشو)] became disordered so that he knew not with which of them to begin: (TA:) or he took to doing an affair that did not concern him: (TA, and Ham p. 33:) it is nearly like the saying اِتَّسَعَ الخَرْقُ عَلَى الرَّاقِعِ [expl. in art. خرق]. (Ham ibid.) And إِنِّى لَأَرَى ضَيْعَةً لَا يُصْلِحُهَا إِلَّا ضَجْعَةٌ [Verily I see property that nothing but a sleep will restore to a right state] a prov.; said by a pastor whose camels had dispersed themselves, and who, desiring to collect them together, and being unable to do so, sought aid of sleep. (O.) مَاتَ ضِيعَةً: see the next paragraph.

ضَيَاعٌ an inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (S, &c.) [Hence] one says, مَاتَ ضَيَاعًا, as also ↓ ضِيَعًا, and ↓ ضِيْعًا, and ↓ ضِيعَةٌ, He (a man, TA) died unsought-after, or unminded, or unmissed. (K, TA.
