(TA.) One says, عَصَمَهُ الطَّعَامُ [for عَصَمَهُ مِنَ الجُوعِ] The food prevented him, or defended him, (مَنَعَهُ,) from being hungry. (S, K.) And عَصَمَهُ اللّٰهُ, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) aor. as above, (Msb, TA,) inf. n. عِصْمَةٌ, (Mgh,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb,) and the inf. n. is عَصْمٌ, (TA,) God defended, or protected, him; (TA;) or preserved him; (Mgh, Msb, TA;) مِنَ السُّوْءِ [from evil], (Mgh,) or مِنَ المَكْرُوهِ [from what was disliked, or hated]. (Msb.) And عَصَمْتُهُ I [defended, or protected, him; or] preserved him. (S.) b2: And [hence,] عَصَمَ القِرْبَةَ, (K, TA,) aor. ـِ inf. n. عَصْمٌ, (TA,) He put, or made, to the water-skin, an عِصَام; (K, TA;) as also ↓ أَعْصَمَهَا: (ISk, S, K, TA:) or the latter signifies, (TA,) or signifies also, (K,) he bound it with the عِصَام, (K, TA,) i. e. the [tie called] وِكَآء [which is bound round its head to confine the contents]. (TA.) A2: عَصَمَ إِلَيْهِ: see 8.

A3: عَصَمَ, aor. ـِ (S, K,) inf. n. عَصْمٌ, (S,) signifies also اِكْتَسَبَ [i. e. he gained, or earned; or he sought means of subsistence]. (S, K.) A4: عَصَمَ ثَنِيَّتَهُ الغُبَارُ means The dust stuck to his central incisor; like عَصَبَ [q. v.]. (TA.) A5: عَصِمَ, aor. ـَ (K, TA,) inf. n. عَصَمٌ, (S, * TA,) said of a gazelle, and of a mountain-goat, [and app. of a horse,] He was such as is termed أَعْصَمُ. (K, TA.) 4 اعصم He exerted his strength, and laid hold, or fast hold, upon a thing, or clung to it, lest his horse, or his camel, should throw him down; [or rather اعصم بِشَىْءٍ has this meaning, or he laid hold, or fast hold, upon a thing, or clung to it;] and in like manner one says بِهِ ↓ اعتصم, and به ↓ استعصم; (S;) بِهِ ↓ اعتصم is said by Er-Rághib, to signify thus; whence, in the Kur [iii. 98], بِحَبْلِ اللّٰهِ ↓ وَاعْتَصمُوا [expl. in art. حبل]: (TA:) and [hence, likewise,] اعصم بِحَبْلِهِ signifies تَمَسَّكَ بِهِ [meaning He held fast by his corenant]. (Mgh.) One says also, اعصم بِالبَعِيرِ He laid hold upon one of the cords, or ropes, of the camel, (K, TA,) lest the camel should throw him down. (TA.) And اعصم بِالفَرَسِ He laid hold upon the mane of the horse, (K, TA,) lest his horse should throw him down. (TA.) and اعصم بِفُلَانٍ He laid upon such a one: (K:) or اعصم بِصَاحِبِهِ He clung to his companion. (S.) b2: And [hence,] He took refuge, and defended, or protected, himself, مِنَ الشَّرِّ from evil; as also ↓ اعتصم, and ↓ استعصم (Ham p. 810.) A2: Also He was not firm [in his seat] upon the back of the horse. (K.) A3: اعصم فُلَانًا He prepared for such a one, (S, K,) in the camel's saddle, and in the horse's saddle, (S,) a thing upon which he might lay hold, (S, K,) lest he should fall. (S.) b2: اعصم القِرْبَةَ: see 1, latter half.7 انعصم He became [defended, or protected, or] preserved; quasi-pass. of عَصَمْتُهُ. (S.) 8 إِعْتَصَمَ see 4, first sentence, in three places. [Hence,] اعتصم بِاللّٰهِ He held fast, or clung, unto God: (Jel in iii. 96:) or, to his religion: or he had recourse to God for protection, in, or in respect of, the concurrences, or combinations, of his affairs: (Bd ibid:) he confided in, or relied upon, God, (Bd and Jel in xxii. last verse,) in, or in respect of, the concurrences, or combinations, of his affairs, not seeking aid from any but Him: (Bd ibid.:) or he defended, or preserved, himself, or he refrained, or abstained, (اِمْتَنَعَ,) by the grace of God, (S, Msb, * K,) from disobedience. (S, K. [See also 10.]) And ↓ عَصَمَ

(TA.) As says, I heard an Arab woman of the desert say to her follow-wife, أَعْطِينِى عُصْمَ حنَّائِكِ, meaning [Give me] what thou hast wiped off and cast away of thy حِنَّآء (S, TA *) after thy dyeing of thy hands with it. (TA.) A2: عُصْمٌ is also a pl. of عِصَامٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) عِصْمٌ: see عُصْمَةٌ.

(of the latter, TA) عِصَمٌ, and pl. pl. أَعْصُمٌ and عِصَمَةٌ [in the CK عَصَمَةٌ, but, as is said in the TA, with kesr and then fet-h], and pl. pl. pl. أَعْصَامٌ; (K;) or this last, which is said in the S to be pl. of عُصْمةٌ, and thought by ISd to be formed from عِصْمَةٌ after rejecting the augmentative letter [ة], and said by some to be a pl. of which the sing. is ↓ عِصْمٌ, like as أَعْدَالٌ is of عِدْلٌ, is correctly pl. of عِصَمٌ, which is pl. of عِصْمَةٌ, (IB, TA.) of which أَعْصِمَةٌ is also a pl. [of pauc.] (TA.) and أَعْصَامٌ signifies also The straps (عَذَبَات) that are upon the necks of dogs: and the sing, is عُصْمَةٌ, and, (K, TA,) some say, (TA,) ↓ عِصَامٌ, (K, TA,) with kesr, [in the CK عَصامٌ,] mentioned by Lth. (TA.) [Hence,] one says, دَفَعْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ بِعُصْمَتِهِ and ↓ بِعِصَامِهِ [i. e. I gave it to him altogether]; like as one says, بِرُمَّتِهِ [q. v.]. (TA.) A2: Also The quality denoted by the epithet أَعْصَمُ [q. v.]: (S, K:) ISh says, it is in the arm of the gazelle and of the mountain-goat: and IAar says, it is in cloven-hoofed animals in the fare legs; and in the crow, in the shanks; and sometimes, he says, it is in horses. (TA.) عِصْمَةٌ [mentioned in the Mgh as an inf. n., but said in the Msb to be a simple subst.,] primarily (TA) signifies مَنْعٌ [as meaning Prevention, or hindrance: or, as seems to be indicated by most of its subordinate applications, defence, or protection]: (S, K, TA:) or, as some say, its primary signification is the act of tying, or binding; and hence the meaning of مَنْعٌ: or, accord. to Zj, it primarily signifies حَبْلٌ [i. e. a rope, or cord]; and accord. to Mohammad Ibn-Neshwán El-Himyeree, سَبَبٌ and حَبْلٌ [which mean the same]. (TA.) Defence, or protection, (TA,) or preservation, (S, Msb, K,) [in an absolute sense, and] as an act of God, (Msb, TA,) from that which would cause destruction of a man. (TA.) عِصْمَةُ الأَنْبِيَآءِ signifies God's preservation of the prophets; first, by the peculiar endowment of them with essential purity of constitution; then, by the conferring of large and highly-esteemed excellences; then, by aid against opponents, and rendering their feet firm; then, by sending down upon them tranquillity (السَّكِينَة, q. v.), [see the Kur ix. 26, &c.,] and the preservation of their hearts, or minds, and adaptation to that which is right. (Er-Rá- ghib, TA.) b2: Also [A defence as meaning] a defender from a state of perdition and from want: so in a saying of Aboo-Tálib, in praise of the Prophet, cited voce ثِمَالٌ. (TA.) b3: And A faculty of avoiding, or shunning, acts of disobedience, [or of self-preservation therefrom,] with possession of power to commit them: (El-Muná- wee, TA:) [or,] as used by the Muslim theologians, inability to disobey: or a disposition that prevents [disobedience], not such as constrains [to act]. (MF, TA.) b4: عِصْمَةُ النِّكَاحِ means The tie, or bond, of marriage: [also called, in the present day, عِصْمَةُ المَرْأَةِ i. e. the woman's matrimonial tie or bond, which is in her husband's hand, or power: a term used by the lawyers:] one says, بِيَدِهِ عِصْمَةُ النِّكَاحِ i. e. [In his hand, or power, is] the tie, or bond, of marriage: pl. عِصَمٌ: whence, in the Kur [lx. 10], وَلَا تُمَسِّكُوا بِعِصَمِ الكَوَافِرِ [And hold ye not to the matrimonial ties, or bonds, of the unbelieving women; meaning divorce ye such women: but the common reading is ولا تُمْسِكُوا, which signifies the same]. (TA.) b5: See also عُصْمَةٌ.

عِصَامٌ The tie of a قِرْبَة [or water-skin]; (S, Msb;) [i. e.] its [tie called] وَكَآء [which is bound round the head to confine the contents]: (TA:) and the strap that is used for the carrying thereof: (S, Msb:) or a cord that is used for the tying, or binding, of the leathern bucket and of the water-skin and of the [leathern vessel for water called]

إِدَاوَة: and the loop-shaped handle that serves for the suspending of the [bag, or other receptacle, for travelling-provisions or for goods or utensils &c. called] وِعَآء: (K:) and anything that serves for the protection, or preservation, of a thing: (TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَعْصِمَةٌ and [of mult.] عُصْمٌ, (K, TA,) or عُصُمٌ, (Msb, and so in some copies of the K,) and عِصَامٌ, like the sing., of the class of دِلَاصٌ: (Az, K:) but Az states, as what had been heard [app. by him] from the Arabs, respecting the عُصْم of [the leathern water-bags called]

مَزَاد, that they are the cords that are fixed in the loops of the pairs of water-bags, and with which they are tied when they are bound upon the back of the camel; after which the [rope called] رِوَآء is bound over them: they are erroneously said by Lth to be the طَرَائِق [app. meaning borders] of the extremity of the مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag], at the place of the كُلْيَة [or kidney-shaped piece of leather to which a loop is sewed]. (TA. [See also خُصْمٌ.]) Mention is made, in a trad., of a place where a camel was shackled with عُصْم, as meaning that its abundance of herbage confined him so that he would not go away in search of pasturage. (TA.) b2: Also The cord, or bond, of the [vehicle called] مَحْمِل, (K, * TA,) which is bound at the extremity of [each of the transverse pieces of wood called] the عَارِضَانِ [correctly عَارِضَتَانِ], in the upper part of each of these: [for,] as Lth says, there are two of such cords, or bonds: and Az says that the عِصَامَانِ of the مَحْمِل are like those of the [pair of leathern water-bags called] مَزَادَتَانِ. (TA.) b3: And The slender part of the end of the tail; (M, K;) and عِضَامٌ is a dial. var. thereof: (TA: [but see the latter:]) or the tail with its hair and its عَسِيب [q. v.]: (ISh, TA:) pl. أَعْصِمَةٌ. (K.) b4: See also عُصْمَةٌ, in two places. b5: Also Collyrium: (K, TA:) mentioned on the authority of El-Muärrij: so called because it defends and strengthens the eye. (TA.) عَصُومٌ Edacious; voracious; (K, TA;) applied to a she-camel; (TA;) and ↓ عَيْصُومٌ signifies the same, (K, TA,) applied to a human being, male and female; (TA;) the latter occurring in the saying of a rájiz, applied to an old woman, (S, TA,) and said to have this meaning, (S,) but as some relate it, the word is there with ض; (S, TA;) and عَيْضُومٌ signifies thus accord. to Kr, applied to a woman: عَيْصُومٌ, however, is of higher authority: (TA in art. عضم:) ↓ عَيْصَامٌ also signifies the same, applied to a man. (TA.) b2: Also A female whose family, or household, have become numerous. (Az, TA.) عَصِيمٌ: see عُصْمٌ. b2: Also Sweat: (K:) or, accord. to Lth, rust [that is an effect] of sweat.

(TA.) b4: And Black hair that grows beneath the fur of the camel when it falls off (إِذَا انْتَسَلَ [perhaps a mistranscription for اذا أَنْسَلَ]). (K.) b5: And The leaves of trees. (IB, TA.) عِصَامِىٌّ [a rel. n. used as meaning Of the class of 'Isám; and hence, self-ennobled]. عِصَامٌ is the name of a chamberlain of En-Noamán Ibn-ElMundhir: and [in relation to him] it is said in a prov., كُنْ عِصَامِيًّا وَلَا تَكُنْ عِظَامِيًّا, (S, K, TA,) [the former clause meaning Be thou of the class of 'Isám, i. e. be thou self-ennobled, and] the latter clause meaning and be not of those who glory in old and wasted and crumbling bones, [i. e. in their ancestors,] (TA,) alluding to his saying, [so in the S and K and TA, but correctly the saying of En-Nábighah, (see Har p. 297,)]

نَفْسُ عِصَامٍ سَوَّدَتْ عِصَامَا وَعَلَّمَتْهُ الكَرَّ وَالإِقْدَامَا [The soul of 'Isám ennobled 'Isám, and taught him the art of attack, and boldness]. (S, K, TA.) And [hence] one says also, فُلَانٌ عِصَامِىٌّ وَعِظَامِىٌّ i. e. Such a one is noble in respect of soul, or self, and of origin. (A, TA.) عَاصِمٌ [act. part. n. of عَصَمَ, signifying] Defending [&c.], or a defender [&c.]. (TA.) لَا عَاصِمَ اليَوْمَ مِنْ أَمْرِاللّٰهِ, in the Kur [xi. 45], may mean There is no defender [this day from the decree of God]: (TA:) or the meaning may be, no [person] defended: or no possessor of defence: (S, TA:) so that عاصم may be an instance of فَاعِل in the sense of مَفْعُوا: (S:) or it may thus be a possessive epithet. (TA. [See also دَافِقٌ.]) b2: [Hence,] العَاصِمَةُ is a name of El-Medeeneh. (K.) b3: أَبُو عَاصِمٍ is an appellation of The meal of parched barley or the like (السَّوِيق). (S, K.) And also The food called سِكْبَاج [q. v.]. (K.) عَيْصَامٌ: see عَصُومٌ.

عَيْصُومٌ: see عَصُومٌ b2: Also A woman who sleeps long, and speaks angrily when she is roused. (TA.) أَعْصَمُ A gazelle, and a mountain-goat, having in his arms, (As, T, S, K,) or in one of them, (AO, S, M, K,) a whiteness, (S, K,) the rest of him being red or black: (K:) or a goat white in the fore legs, or in the fore leg: (Az, TA:) fem.

عَصْمَآءُ: (S, K:) and pl. عُصْمٌ. (S.) b2: And A horse white in the fore leg: (As, TA:) or having a whiteness in one of his fore legs, above the pastern: (ISh, TA:) or having a whiteness in his fore shanks: (Ham p. 18:) or having a whiteness in one of his fore legs, (S, TA,) but not in his hind legs, (TA,) little or much; in which case he is termed أَعْصَمُ اليُمْنَى or اليُسْرَى [white in respect of the right fore leg or of the left]: when the whiteness is in both of his fore legs, he is termed أَعْصَمُ اليَدَيْنِ [white in respect of the two fore legs]; unless having a blaze in his face, in which case he is termed مُحَجَّلٌ, not أَعْصَمُ; (S, TA;) though a blaze in his face does not cause him to be termed مُحَجَّلٌ when the whiteness is in one fore leg. (S.) b3: And A crow having a white feather in its wing; (S, K; [in some copies of the K, in its two wings;]) i. e., in one of its wings: (TA:) because the wing of the bird corresponds to the fore leg [of the beast]: (S, TA:) or white in the wings: (ISh, IAth, TA:) or white in the legs: (TA:) or red (أَحْمَر) in the legs and beak; (Az, K, TA;) and this is said by Az to be the correct explanation; [but] he adds that the Arabs term بَيَاض [i. e. whiteness] حَمْرَة [which properly signifies redness], saying of a woman of white complexion that she is حَمْرَآء: [so that by the last of the foregoing explanations of أَعْصَمُ applied to a crow is app. meant white in the legs and beak:] the Prophet is said to have explained this epithet, thus applied, as meaning of which one of the legs is white: (TA:) some say that الغُرَابُ الأَعْصَمُ is like الأَبْلَقُ العَقُوقُ and بَيْضُ الأَنوقِ, applied to anything that is rarely found: (S, TA:) it occurs in a number of trads.; and a righteous woman is likened thereto. (TA.) مِعْصَمٌ The part, of the fore arm, which is the place of the bracelet; (S, Msb, K;) [the wrist: pl. مَعَاصِمُ:] in a citation from a poet (voce عَرَقَ), المَعَاصِيم is used by poetic license for المَعَاصِم. (L in art. عرق.) b2: And The يَد [meaning arm]; (K, TA;) used in this sense in a verse of ElAashà. (TA.) A2: Also, thus without the article ال, a name for The she-goat; which is called to be milked by one's saying مِعْصَمْ مِعْصَمْ, with the last letter quiescent.

عظم

1 عَظُمَ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. عِظَمٌ (S, Msb, K) and عَظَامَةٌ, (Msb, K,) accord. to El-Isbahánee, primarily signifies He was, or became, great in his bone: then metaphorically said of anything كَبِير [or great], whether an object of sense or of intel-lect, a substance or an accident: (TA:) i. q. كَبُرَ, (S, TA,) said of a thing [as meaning it was, or became, great, big, or large], (S, Msb, TA,) in length and breadth and thickness: (TA:) [and in like manner, metaphorically, said of an object of intellect; meaning it was, or became, great in estimation or rank or dignity; and thus also said of a man: or it imports more than كَبُرَ; signifying it was, or became, great in comparison with other things of its kind; huge, enormous, or vast; and in a similar sense it is said of a man; and in an incomparably higher sense, of God: (see عَظِيمٌ, below:)] and ↓ اعظم said of an affair, or event, signifies [like عَظُمَ] it became عَظِيم. (TA.) عِظَمٌ is the contr. of صِغَرٌ. (K.) b2: عَظُمَ عِنْدَهُ, and عَظُمَ عَلَيْهِ: see 6, in three places: and see also 4.

And مَا يَعْظُمُنِى [which is similar in meaning to ما يَعْظُمُ عَلَىَّ if not a mistranscription for ما يُعْظِمُنِى]: see 4. b3: In the case of expressing wonder, one says, عُظْمَ البَطْنُ بَطْنُكَ [How great is the belly, thy belly !], contracting عَظُمَ, and transferring the vowel of its middle letter to [the place of] its first; and thus one does in the case of that which denotes praise or blame, and of whatever [verb] may be well used in the manner of نِعْمَ, and بِئْسَ: but what may not be thus used does not admit of the transferring, though it may be contracted; so that you may say, حَسُنَ الوَجْهُ وَجْهُكَ and حَسْنَ الوَجْهُ وَجْهُكَ and حُسْنَ الوَجْهُ وَجْهُكَ, but not قَدْ حُسْنَ الوَجْهُ وَجْهُكَ.

(S.) [One says, فَعَلْتُ كَذَا تَعْظِيمًا لَهُ I did thus for the purpose of rendering honour &c. to him, or it.] b3: عظّم المَطَرُ, inf. n. as above, The rain moistened to the measure of the عَظَمَة [or thick part] of the arm. (TA voce أَسَّلَ [q. v.]) A2: عظّم الشَّاةَ, inf. n. as above, He cut up the sheep, or goat, bone by bone. (K.) 4 اعظم as intrans.: see 1, former half.

أَنْ أَفْعَلَ ذٰلِكَ [if not a mistranscription for ما يُعْظِمُنِى], meaning مَا يَهُولُنِى [My doing that will not frighten me, or terrify me]. (TA.) A3: اعظم الكَلْبَ: see 1, last sentence but one.5 تعظّم [He made himself to appear great, big, or large: as is indicated by an explanation of the word رُفَاعَة in the S, in art. رفع. b2: and hence,] He magnified himself; or behaved proudly, haughtily, or insolently; as also ↓ استعظم; (S, Msb, K;) [and so ↓ تعاظم: b3: whence one says, تعظّم عَنْهُ and عنه ↓ تعاظم, both of which occur in the K, the former in art. ابه in explanation of تَأَبَّهَ عَنْ كَذَا, and the latter in art. جل in explanation of تَجَالَّ عَنْهُ; both meaning He held himself above it, disdained it, or was disdainful of it.]

b4: [تَعَظَّمَ اللّٰهُ and ↓ تَعَاظَمَ may be best rendered Incomparable in greatness, or majesty, is God.]

A2: See also 10.6 تعاظم as intrans.: see 5, in three places: b2: and see عَظَمَةٌ.

A2: [تعاظمهُ signifies It was, or became, عَظِيم i. e. great, &c., in comparison with it.] One says, سَيْلٌ لَا يَتَعَاظَمُهُ شَىْءٌ, meaning [A torrent] in comparison with which nothing will be great.

(S, TA.) And هٰذَا أَمْرٌ يَتَعَاظَمُهُ شَىْءٌ (K, * TA) [This is an affair] in comparison with which nothing will be great. (K, TA.) b2: تعاظمهُ said of an affair, or event, (أَمْرٌ, S, Msb, TA,) signifies (Msb, K, TA) also (K, TA) عَلَيْهِ ↓ عَظُمَ [i. e. It was, or became, of great magnitude, or moment, or importance; or of great gravity; or (like كَبُرَ عَلَيْهِ) difficult, hard, severe, grievous, distressing, afflictive, troublesome, or burdensome; in its effect upon him]. (Msb, K, TA.) In a trad., God is related to have said, لَا يَتَعَاظَمُنِى ذَنْبٌ أَنْ

أَغْفِرَهُ, meaning عَلَىَّ ↓ لَا يَعْظُمُ and عِنْدِى [i. e. A sin is not difficult, &c., to me to forgive it; like as one says, لَا يَكْبُرُ عَلَىَّ and عِنْدِى]. (TA.) 10 استعظم as intrans.: see 5.

A2: استعظمهُ He reckoned it, (S,) or he saw it, or judged it, to be, (Mgh, Msb, K,) عَظِيم [i. e. great, &c.]; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ اعظمهُ, (Mgh, K,) which latter is mentioned by ISd, but disapproved by him: one says, ↓ سَمِعْتُ خَبَرًا فَأَعْظَمْتُهُ [I heard a narration and I judged it to be of great moment, &c.]: (TA:) and ↓ تعظّم is thought by ISd to mean he looked upon [a thing] as عَظِيم.

(TA.) A2: عَضَهَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. عَضْهٌ and عَضَةٌ and عَضِيهَةٌ and عِضْهَةٌ, He lied. (K.) And He excited discord, or dissension, and made known discourse in a mischievous manner, or embellished speech with falsehood; or he calumniated; syn. نَمَّ; (K, TA;) or بَهَتَ: (TA:) whence the saying, in a trad., أَتَدْرُونَ مَا العَضْهُ (TA) i. e. [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. (K, TA.) b3: And عَضَهَهُ, inf. n. عَضْهٌ, He reviled him, or vilified him, plainly [or in coarse language, as is shown by an explanation of it in the R]. (TA.) b4: And عَضَهَ, inf. n. عَضْهٌ and عَضَهٌ and عَضِيهَةٌ and عِضْهَةٌ, He enchanted: (K, TA:) because enchantment is a lying, and a causing to imagine that which has no reality: and he divined. (TA.) 2 عَضَّهَ see 1, former half, in two places.4 أَعْضَهَتِ الأَرْضُ The land abounded with the trees called عِضَاه. (K.) b2: And اعضه القَوْمُ The people, or party, had their camels depasturing the عِضَاه. (S, K.) A2: See also 1, latter half, in two places.

عَضِهٌ: see عَاضِهٌ, in three places. b2: أَرْضٌ عَضِهَةٌ and ↓ عَضِيهَةٌ (K, TA) and ↓ مُعْضِهَةٌ (S, K, TA) A land having trees such as are called عِضَاه: (TA:) or abounding with such trees. (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.

عِضَهَةٌ: see عِضَاهٌ.

عِضَهِىٌّ, applied to a camel, That depastures the trees called عِضَاه; as also ↓ عِضَاهِىٌّ so applied; (S, K;) and in like manner, applied to camels, ↓ عِضَاهِيَّةٌ; (S;) the second and third being rel. ns. from عِضَةٌ, and therefore irregularly formed, or from عِضَاهَةٌ, not from عِضَاهٌ because this is a pl. or has the meaning of a pl.: (TA:) so too عَضَوِىٌّ applied to a camel, (S, K,) and عَضَوِيَّةٌ applied to camels, both with fet-h, irregular. (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.]

عَضِيهَةٌ: see عَضِهٌ.

A2: And see also عِضَهٌ, in two places.

عَاضِهٌ applied to a he-camel, as also ↓ عَضِهٌ, (S,) and عَاضِهَةٌ applied to a she-camel, (S, K,) and thus also عَاضِهٌ, (K,) Depasturing the trees called عِضَاه; (S, K, TA;) and the pl. [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. (TA.) [See also عِضَهِىٌّ.]

(O, K. *) 2 طبّقهُ, inf. n. تَطْبِيقٌ: see 4. b2: [Hence,] طبّق السَّحَابُ الجَوَّ The clouds covered the mid-air between the heaven and the earth: (K:) and الغَيْمُ السَّمَآءَ ↓ أَطْبَقَ and طَبَّقَهَا [The clouds covered the sky]: (Mgh, TA:) both signify the same. (TA.) And طبّق المَآءُ وَجْهَ الأَرْضِ The water covered the face of the earth, or land. (K.) b3: And طبّق الشَّىْءُ, inf. n. as above, i. q. عَمَّ [The thing was, or became, common, or general, in its relation or relations, operation or operations, effect or effects, &c.]. (K.) And as syn. with عَمَّ it is trans.: so in the phrase, هٰذَا مَطَرٌ طَبَّقَ الأَرْضَ [This is rain that has included the general extent of the land within the compass of its fall]. (TA.) And one says also, طبّق الغَيْمُ, (S, O, TA,) inf. n. as above, (S, O, K, TA,) The clouds rained upon the whole of the land; (S, O;) or made their rain common, or general, (K, TA,) to the land.

(KL.) b5: [And طبّق بَيْنَ الشَّيْئَيْنِ He put the two things together, face to face. (See also 3.) b6: Hence,] التَّطْبِيقُ in the divinely-appointed act of prayer is The putting the hands [together, palm to palm,] between the thighs in the act of bowing oneself; (S, O, K;) and in like manner in the act termed التَّشَهُّد [q. v.]. (El-Harbee, TA.) One says of a person bowing himself in prayer, طبّق, and likewise ↓ اطبق, (TA,) or طبّق كَفَّيْهِ, (Mgh,) or طبّق بَيْنَ كَفَّيْهِ ثُمَّ وَضَعَهُمَا بَيْنَ فَخِذَيْهِ, (O,) He put his hands [together, palm to palm, ana then put them] between his thighs. (Mgh.) The doing thus is forbidden; (Mgh, O;) for the hands should be placed upon the knees. (O.) b7: Also The horse's raising his fore feet together and putting them down together in running: (S, O, K:) or, accord. to As, the leaping of a camel, or of a she-camel, and then alighting so that the legs fall upon the ground together; the doing of which is not approved.

Hence, يُطَبِّقُ المَفْصِلَ means (assumed tropical:) He hits aright the argument, proof, or evidence: (S, O:) and this is also said of an eloquent man. (Az, TA voce قَالَبٌ, q. v.) Hence also, طَبَّقَ alone, (assumed tropical:) He hit upon the right mode of judicial decision: (O, TA:) and the text of the tradition. (TA.) 3 مُطَابَقَةٌ signifies The putting a thing upon, or above, or over, another thing commensurate therewith: whence the phrase, طَابَقْتُ النَّعْلَ [i. e., as expl. in Bd lxvii. 3, I sewed another sole upon the sole or sandal]. (Er-Rághib, TA.) [Hence] one says also, طَابَقْتُ بَيْنَ الشَّيْئَيْنِ I made the two things commensurate, and stuck them together. (S, O. [See also 2.]) And طابق بَيْنَ قَمِيصَيْنِ He put on, or attired himself with, two shirts, one over, or outside, the other; (K, TA;) and in like manner صَافَقَ بَيْنَهُمَا, and طَارَقَ, (TA,) and ظَاهَرَ.

(TA.) b3: [Hence,] one says, هٰذَا جَوَابٌ يُطَابِقُ السُّؤَالَ [This is an answer, or a reply, that is suitable to the question]. (TA.) b4: And طابقت زَوْجَهَا She (a woman) complied with [the desire of] her husband: and طابقت said of a she-camel, and of a woman, She was, or became, submissive to him who desired her. (TA.) b5: And طابق لِى بِحَقِّى He obeyed me with respect to my right, or due, and hastened to render it; or he acknowledged to me my right, or due, willingly.

(Mgh. [And the like is said in several other arts. in other lexicons.]) And اطبقتُ الرَّحَى I put the upper mill-stone upon the lower. (TA.) b2: See also 2, second sentence. [This last ex. shows that اطبقهُ signifies sometimes It covered it as meaning it became a cover, or like a cover, to it; and اطبق عَلَيْهِ likewise has this meaning; as also عليه ↓ انطبق, and عليه ↓ تطبّق.] b3: [Hence,] one says, اطبق عَلَيْهِ الجُنُونُ (Msb, TA) (assumed tropical:) Insanity covered [i. e. veiled, or wholly obscured,] his reason, or intellect. (TA.) And اطبقت عَلَيْهِ الحُمَّى (Mgh, O, TA) (tropical:) The fever was, or became, continual upon him, not quitting him night nor day. (TA.) b4: اطبقوا عَلَى الأَمْرِ means (tropical:) They combined consentaneously, or agreed together, respecting, or to do, the thing, or affair; (S, * Mgh, * O, * Msb, TA; *) and so عَلَيْهِ ↓ تطابقوا.

(TA.) b8: [اطبقهُ عَلَيْهِ signifies He made it to cover it; i. e., to be a cover, or like a cover, upon it.] You say, أَطْبَقَ عَلَى مَخْرَجِ الحَرْفِ مِنَ اللِّسَانِ مَا حَاذَاهُ مِنَ الحَنَكِ [He made to cover the part of the tongue which was the place of utterance of the letter what was opposite to it of the palate; i. e. he put that part of his tongue close beneath the opposite part of the palate].

[Hence,] one says, لَوْ تَطَبَّقَتِ السَّمَآءُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ مَا فَعَلْتُ كَذَا [If the heaven became as a cover upon the earth, I would not do such a thing].

(IAar, O, K, TA.) b4: طِبْقٌ signifies also A space, or period, (سَاعَةٌ,) of the day; and so ↓ طِبْقَةٌ: and ↓ طَبِيقٌ signifies the same of the night: (K:) you say, أَقَمْتُ عِنْدَهُ طِبْقًا مِنَ النَّهَارِ, and ↓ طِبْقَةً, I remained at his abode during a space, or period, (سَاعَةً,) of the day: (Ibn-'Abbád, O:) and طِبْقًا, (K, TA,) with kesr, (TA,) or ↓ طَبَقًا, (so in the O,) and ↓ طَبِيقًا, i. e. a while, or a long time, syn. مَلِيًّا: (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K:) or, accord. to the L, one says, أَتَانَا بَعْدَ طِبْقٍ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ, and ↓ طَبِيق, he came to us after a space, or period, (حِينٍ,) of the night; and in like manner, مِنَ النَّهَارِ of the day: (TA:) the pl. of طَبِيقٌ is طُبْقٌ. (K.) [See also طَبَقٌ, in, or near, the middle of the paragraph.]

A2: Also Bird-lime; a dial. var. of دِبْقٌ. (IDrd, O, K.)

(TA.) وَافَقَ شَنٌّ طَبَقَهْ is [a prov.] expl. (O, K, TA) by As (O, TA) as said of a company of men who had a receptacle of skin [i. e. a water-skin] that had become old and worn out, wherefore they made a طَبَق [or cover] for it: (O, K, TA:) [so that the meaning is, A water-skin that had become old and worn out suited its cover:] or شَنٌّ and طَبَقٌ [in the O طبقه] were two tribes; (S, * O, K * TA;) and, as ISd says, شَنٌّ does not here mean a water-skin, for this has no طَبَق: (TA:) or [طَبَقَهٌ is for طَبَقَةَ, and] طَبَقَةُ was an intelligent woman, whom an intelligent man took as his wife. (O, K, TA. [See Freytag's Arab. Prov., ii. 800.]) b2: Also A certain household utensil; (Msb;) [i. e. a dish, or plate; perhaps thus called because the cover of a cooking-vessel is often used as a dish or plate;] the thing upon which one eats, (K, TA,) and in which one eats; and the thing upon which fruit is placed [i. e. a dish, or plate, used for that purpose; and likewise a round tray, and the like]: (TA:) pl. أَطْبَاقٌ and طِبَاقٌ.

[And in like manner, Any of the Seven Heavens:] one says, السَّمٰوَاتُ طِبَاقٌ, meaning The Heavens are [composed of stages] one above another; (S, O, Msb; *) every heaven [except the lowest] being like a طبق to another: (Msb:) or this is said because of their being conformable, one with another: (K:) and it is said in the Kur lxvii. 3, اَلَّذِى خَلَقَ سَبْعَ سَمٰوَاتٍ طِبَاقًا, meaning [Who hath created seven heavens] placed one above another; طباقا being the inf. n. of طَابَقْتُ النَّعْلَ [q. v.], used as an epithet; or for طُوبِقَتْ طِبَاقًا; or ذَاتَ طِبَاقٍ, pl. of طَبَقٌ or of ↓ طَبَقَةٌ.

(TA.) And (TA) A قَرْن [i. e. generation] of time: or twenty years: (K, TA:) or, as in the book of El-Hejeree, on the authority of I'Ab, ↓ طَبَقَةٌ has this latter meaning. (TA.) b15: (tropical:) A rain such as fills and covers the earth, or land; (TA;) or such as is general, (S, O, K, TA,) and of wide extent; termed by a poet (namely, Imra-el-Keys, O, TA) طَبَقُ الأَرْضِ: (S, O, TA:) or a lasting rain, consecutive in its falls.

(TA.) b16: A main portion of the night and of the day: (S, O, K:) or, accord. to the Mufradát [of Er-Rághib], طَبَقُ اللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ signifies سَاعَاتُهُ المطابقة [app. a mistranscription for المُتَطَابِقَةُ, and meaning the commensurate, or similar, or equal, portions of the night and of the day]. (TA.) See also طِبْقٌ. b17: And A state, or condition; (S, O, K, TA;) as also ↓ طَبَقَةٌ, of which the pl. is طِبَاقٌ: the pl. of the former in this sense is أَطْبَاقٌ. (TA.) Hence the phrase, لَتَرْكَبُنَّ طَبَقًا عَنْ طَبَقٍ, (S, O, K, TA,) in the Kur [lxxxiv. 19], meaning [Ye shall assuredly enter upon] state after state, (S, * O, TA,) and predicament after predicament; as in the A; (TA;) on the day of resurrection; (S;) the state being termed طَبَق because it will fill the hearts [as though the dread thereof covered them], or will be near to doing so; (O, TA;) and عَنْ being put in this instance, as it is in many others, in the place of بَعْدَ: (TA:) or the meaning is, one after another of similar states of hardship: or it may be, degrees of hardship after degrees thereof; طَبَقٌ accord. to this rendering being regarded as pl. [or coll. gen. n.] of ↓ طَبَقَةٌ: (Ksh and Bd:) or [ye shall assuredly mount upon] the heaven in one state after another state; for it (the heaven) shall be like مُهْل [i. e. molten brass or iron &c., as is said in the Kur lxx. 8,] and then successively in other states: (O, TA:) so says Aboo-Bekr: accord. to Er-Rághib, it points to the various successive states of man in the present world from his creation, and in the world to come until his resting in one of the two abodes [Paradise or Hell]: or, accord. to Ibn-Abi-l- Hadeed, it means [ye shall assuredly enter upon] difficulty after difficulty; as is related by MF; and the same is said by Az on the authority of I'Ab: (TA:) some read لَتَرْكَبَنَّ, meaning thou, O Mohammad, shalt assuredly mount upon stage after stage of the stages (أَطْبَاق) of heaven; and I'Ab and Ibn-Mes-ood read لَتَرْكَبِنَّ, with kesr to the ب, which is accord. to the dial. of Temeem, and Keys and Asad and Rabee'ah pronounce the first letter of the future with kesr except when it is ى: 'Omar read لَيَرْكَبَنَّ, either as relating to the Prophet or as referring to him who is mentioned in verses 10-15 of the same chapter. (O, TA.) One says also, بَاتَ يَرْعَى طَبَقَ النُّجُومِ, meaning (tropical:) [He passed the night watching] the state of the stars in their course: (TA:) or طَبَقُ النُّجُومِ means the falling [or app. setting] of stars after [other] stars: or, accord. to Es-Sadoosee, the rising of a star and the setting of another: and a collective number thereof after a collective number [of others]: and such, he says, are termed مِنَ النُّجُومِ ↓ طَبَقَاتٌ.

And one says, وَلَدَتِ الغَنَمُ طَبَقًا and ↓ طَبْقًا, meaning The sheep, or goats, brought forth one after another: (L:) El-Umawee says, when they do thus, one says, وَلَدَتْهَا الرُّجَيْلَآءِ and وَلَدَتْهَا طَبَقًا and ↓ طَبَقَةً [They brought them forth (i. e. their young ones) one after another]. (S, O.) b19: [The pl.] الأَطْبَاقُ also signifies Those who are remote, and those who are remotely connected: so in a trad. respecting the signs of the resurrection, or of the time thereof; in which it is said, يُوْصَلُ الأَطْبَاقُ وَيُقْطَعُ الأَرْحَامُ [Those who are remote, and those who are remotely related, shall be brought into close connection, and the ties of relationship shall be severed]. (TA.) b20: بِنْتُ طَبَقٍ is an appellation of A female tortoise, [app. because of the cover of her back,] which, (S, O, K,) as the Arabs assert, (S, O,) lays ninety-nine eggs, all of them [eventually] tortoises, and lays one egg which discloses (S, O, K) a serpent (K) [or a serpent such as is termed] an أَسْوَد; (S, O;) or, accord. to Az, sixty-nine [eggs], and the seventieth is [eventually] a viper. (So in a marg. note in one of my copies of the S; in which, also, the appellation is written بِنْتُ طَبَقَ, instead of بِنْتُ طَبَقٍ.) Hence the phrase إِحْدَى بَنَاتِ طَبَقٍ, meaning (tropical:) A calamity; (S, O, TA;) as also بِنْتُ طَبَقٍ: (TA:) بَنَاتُ طَبَقٍ meaning calamities [like مُطْبِقَاتٌ]: as well as tortoises: and serpents: (K:) and أُمُّ طَبَقٍ [in like manner] meanscalamity: (TA in art. طرق:) or, accord. to EthTha'álibee, طَبَقُ [thus, imperfectly decl., as written in the L,) signifies a yellow serpent: (L, TA:) and أُمُّ طَبَقٍ and بِنْتُ طَبَقٍ are said to signify the serpent, because of its coiling itself round: or بَنَاتُ طَبَقٍ is an appellation applied to serpents because of their winding themselves round (لإِطْبَاقِهَا) upon him whom they bite; or, as some say, because the حَوَّآء [q. v.] confines them beneath the lids (أَطْبَاق) of the baskets (أَسْفَاط) covered with leather; or, as Z says, because they resemble the طَبَق [i. e. cover, or dish, or plate,] when they coil themselves round. (TA.) طِبْقَةٌ: see طِبْقٌ, former half, in two places: A2: and also near the end of the same paragraph.

(TA.) b3: تَحَلَّبُوا عَلَى

Lower thine eyes, or be silent, karà: thou wilt not be seen:] until he becomes within reach of it; when he throws a garment over it, and takes it. ('Eyn, TA.) And أَطْرِقْ كَرَا يُحْلَبْ لَكَ [Lower thine eyes, or be silent, karà: milk shall be drawn for thee:] is [a prov., mentioned by Meyd,] said to a stupid person whom one incites to hope for that which is vain, or false, and who believes [what is said to him].

(TA.) [طَارِقُ المَنَايَا, like دَاعِى المَنَايَا, means The summoner of death, lit., of deaths; because death makes known its arrival or approach suddenly, like a person knocking at the door in the night.] b2: Hence الطَّارِقُ, mentioned in the Kur [lxxxvi. 1 and 2], The star that appears in the night: (Er-Rághib, O:) or the morning-star; (S, O, K;) because it comes [or appears] in [the end of] the night.

El-Iyádeeyeh when Kisrà warred with Iyád, (O,) لَا نَنْثَنِى لِوَامِقِ نَحْنُ بَنَاتُ طَارِقِ نَمْشِى عَلَى النَّمَارِقِ (assumed tropical:) [We are the daughters of one like a star, or a morning-star: we bend not to a lover: we walk upon the pillows]: (S, * O, * TA:) meaning we are the daughters of a chief; likening him to the star in elevation; (O, TA;) i. e. our father is, in respect of elevation, like the shining star: (S:) or بَنَاتُ طَارِقٍ means (assumed tropical:) The daughters of the kings.

وَلَا زَاجِرَاتُ الطَّيْرِ مَا اللّٰهُ صَانِعُ [By thy life, or by thy religion, the diviners with pebbles know not, nor the diviners by the flight of birds, what God is doing].

A4: [El-Makreezee mentions the custom of attaching طَوَارِق حَرْبِيَّة upon the gates of Cairo and upon the entrances of the houses of the أُمَرَآء; and De Sacy approves of the opinion of A. Schultens and of M. Reinaud that the meaning is Cuirasses, from the Greek θώραξ: (see De Sacy's Chrest. Arabe, sec. ed., vol. i. pp. 274-5:) but I think that the meaning is more probably large maces; for such maces, each with a head like a cannon-ball, may still be seen, if they have not been removed within the last few years, upon several of the gates of Cairo; and if so, طَوَارِق in this case is app. from طَرَقَ “ he beat: ” see also عَمُودٌ.]

(S, K.) [In Isaiah xxx. 24, the word rendered “ clean ”

(Az.) This usage of the word is taken from the eager desire of camels for حَمْض when they have become weary of خُلَّة.

حُمُوضةٌ [Acidity; sourness; the quality of being sharp or biting to the taste; pungency;] the taste of that which is termed حَامِض. (S, K.) [See 1.] الحُمُوضةُ is also explained as signifying That which bites the tongue; as the taste of vinegar, and of milk such as is termed حَازِر: which is extr., [if it be meant thereby that the word is thus used as an epithet to qualify a subst., or as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant, but I rather think that it is a loose way of explaining it as an inf. n. used as a simple subst.,] for [the measure] فُعُولَةٌ does not belong [save] to inf. ns. (TA: [in which the word إِلَّا is evidently omitted by an oversight in transcription, and therefore has been supplied by me in rendering the passage.]) أَرْضٌ حَمِيضَةٌ Land abounding with حَمْض; (ISh, K;) as also ↓ ارض مُحْمِضَةٌ; (S;) and ↓ ارض حَمْضِيَّةٌ: (TA:) pl. of the first, أَرَضُونَ حُمُضٌ, (as in some copies of the K,) or حُمْضٌ: (as in other copies of the same, and in the TA:) and حُمُوضٌ [which seems to be another pl. of the first of these epithets] is explained as signifying land possessing حَمْض. (TA.) حُمَّاضٌ [Sorrel; or particularly the rose-flowered sorrel; more commonly called in the present day حُمَّيْض;] a certain plant having a red flower; (S;) a herb, or leguminous plant, of the kind termed ذُكُور, having a produce, or fruit, red like blood; (Ham p. 823;) a certain herb (K, TA) growing in the mountains, of herbs of the [season called] رَبِيع, (TA,) the leaves of which are like those of the هِنْدِبَآء, (K, TA,) large and broad; (TA;) it is acid, (K, TA,) intensely so; its flower is red, and its leaves are green: (TA: [in which is here added ويتناوس فى ثمره مثل حبّ الرمّان, app. for وَيَتَنَوَّسُ الخ; meaning that it waves much to and fro when blown by the wind, and describing its fruit as containing what resemble the grains of the pomegranate:]) it is pleasant to the taste; (K, TA;) and is eaten by men, but in small quantity: AHn and Aboo-Ziyád say, it grows very tall, and has a wide leaf, and a red flower, which, when it is near to drying up, becomes white: and Aboo-Ziyád says, in our mountain-country it is abundant; and is of two species; one of these two is acid, [but] pleasant to the taste; (TA;) and one species thereof is bitter; (K, TA;) in the lower parts of each, when they are full grown, is a redness; and the seeds and leaves of the acid species are used medicinally: Az says, it is a wild herb, or leguminous plant, that grows in the days of the [season called] رَبِيع, in the channels of water, and has a red flower, and is of the herbs, or leguminous plants, which are termed ذُكُور: IB says, the places of its growth are the small channels of water, and the places to which valleys take their courses; and in it is acidity: sometimes, also, the people of settled habitations make it to grow in their gardens, and water it and sustain it so that it does not dry up in the time when the wild herbs, or leguminous plants, dry up: it is also said in the Minháj that it is both wild and growing in gardens; that the wild is called سلق, [but this name is commonly applied to bete,] and in all of this there is not acidity: the garden-kind resembles the هندباء, and in this is acidity, and an excessive viscous moisture: the best is the acid, gardenkind: here ends the quotation from the Minháj: (TA:) each species, (K, TA,) the bitter and the pleasant, or the garden-kind and the wild, (TA,) is good for thirst, and for inflammation arising from yellow bile; and strengthens the bowels; and allays heaving of the stomach, and hot palpitation, and tooth-ache; and is good for the black [or livid] jaundice; (K, * TA;) and, when cooked, and applied externally, for the leprosy; and for the ringworm (قُوَبَآء); and for glandular swellings in the neck, so much so that it is said to do good to him who has these even when hung upon the neck: with vinegar, also, it is good for the mange, or scab; and it is astringent; and puts a stop to malacia [so I render شَهْوَةالطِّين, lit. “ the longing for clay ”]: its seeds are cold in the first degree, and have an astringent property, particularly when fried: (TA:) they say that if these be hung, in a purse, upon a woman's left upper arm, she will not become pregnant as long as they remain upon her: (K, * TA:) they are also good for the sting of scorpions; and if some of the seeds be swallowed before the scorpion's stinging, its stinging will not hurt. (TA.) A2: Also What is in the interior of the [kind of citron called] أُتْرُجّ: (A, K:) n. un. with ة: (A:) it is cold and dry in the third degree; used as a liniment, it removes freckles and the like, and clears the complexion; and it suppresses (يَقْمَعُ) the yellow bile; and gives appetite for food; and is good for hot palpitation; and made into a beverage, it sweetens the odour of the mouth; and is good for looseness arising from yellow bile; and is suitable for those who are fevered. (TA.) [In the present day, in Egypt, this name is applied to A species of citron, itself, with a conical apex, and very acid pulp.]

حُمَّيْضَى A certain plant: not from حُمُوضَة. (TA.) حُمَّاضِيَّةٌ A confection composed of حُمَّاض of the أُتْرُجّ. (TA.) حَامِضٌ [Acid; sour; sharp or biting to the taste; pungent; having a taste like that of vinegar or like that of sour milk; see حُمُوضةٌ;] (S, Msb, K;) applied to milk (TA) and other things; (Msb;) and ↓ مُحَمِّضٌ signifies the same, applied to a grape. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] رَجُلٌ حَامِضُ الفُؤَادِ (tropical:) A man whose heart, or mind, is altered and bad, (O, K,) فِى الغَضَبِ in anger. (O.) And فُلَانٌ حَامِضُ الرِّئَتَيْنِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is in a loathing state of mind; syn. مُرُّ النَّفْسِ. (S.) A2: إِبِلٌ حَامِضَةٌ Camels pasturing upon حَمْض; (S.) or eating it; (K;) or pastur ing upon حَمْض after pasturing upon خُلَّة: (ISk:) pl. حَوَامِضُ: (S, K:) and ↓ إِبِلٌ حَمْضِيَّةٌ Camels staying among حَمْض; (As, S, K;) as also ↓ حَمَضِيَّةٌ, contr. to rule: (TA:) and بَعِيرٌ

↓ حَمْضِىٌّ a camel eating حَمْض. (TA.) مَحْمَضٌ and مُحْمَضٌ, (S, K,) the latter on the authority of A'Obeyd, (S,) A place in which camels pasture upon حَمْض. (S, K. *) أَرْضٌ مُحْمِضَةٌ: see حَمِيضَةٌ.

مُحَمِّضٌ: see حَامِضٌ.

لَبَنٌ مُسْتَحْمِضٌ Milk slow in thickening. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.)

حكم

1 حَكَمَهُ, (S, K,) [aor. ـُ inf. n. حُكْمٌ, (Msb, K, [in the TK حَكْمٌ,]) in its primary acceptation, (Msb,) He prevented, restrained, or withheld, him (S, Msb, K) from acting in an evil, or a corrupt, manner; as also ↓ احكمهُ: (K:) and (K) from doing that which he desired; as also ↓ احكمهُ; and ↓ حكّمهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. تَحْكِيمٌ: (S:) and حُكُومَةٌ [is another inf. n. of حَكَمَهُ, and], accord. to As, primarily signifies the turning a man back from wrongdoing. (TA.) Ibrá-heem En-Nakha'ee is related to have said, ↓ حَكِّمِ اليَتِيمَ كَمَا تُحَكِّمُ وَلَدَكَ, meaning Restrain thou the orphan from acting in an evil, or a corrupt, manner, and make him good, or virtuous, as thou restrainest thine offspring &c.: and of every one whom thou preventest, or restrainest, or withholdest, from doing a thing, thou sayest, [حَكَمْتُهُ and] ↓ حكّمته and ↓ احكمته: or, accord. to Aboo-Sa'eed Ed-Dareer, as related by Sh, the forementioned saying of En-Nakh'ee means let the orphan decide respecting his property, when he is good, or virtuous, as thou lettest thine offspring &c.; but this explanation is not approved. (Az, TA.) And Jereer says, سُفَهَآءَكُمْ ↓ أًبَنِى حَنِيفَةَ أَحْكِمُوا

إِنِّى أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمُ أَنْ أَغْضَبَا [O sons of Haneefeh, restrain your lightwitted ones: verily I fear for you that I may be angry]: (S, TA:) i. e., restrain and prevent them from opposing me. (TA.) You say, also, عَنِ ↓ احكمهُ الأَمْرِ He made him to turn back, or revert, from the thing, or affair. (K.) b2: حَكَمَ الفَرَسَ, and ↓ احكمهُ, and ↓ حكّمهُ, He pulled in the horse by the bridle and bit, to stop him; he curbed, or restrained, him. (TA.) And حَكَمَ الدَّابَّةَ, (S,) or الفَرَسَ, (K,) inf. n. حَكْمٌ; (S; [so in my two copies of that work;]) and ↓ أَحْكَمَهَا, (S,) or احكمهُ; (K;) He put a حَكَمَة [q. v.] to the bit of the beast, or horse. (S, * K.) b3: And ↓ حكّم الحَوَادِثَ (assumed tropical:) [He controlled events: see مُحَكَّمٌ]. (MF.) b4: حَكَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ بِكَذَا originally signifies I prevented, restrained, or withheld, him from doing, or suffering, any other than such a thing, so that he could not escape it. (Msb.) [Hence it means I condemned him to such a thing; as, for instance, the payment of a fine or of a debt, and death.] And hence, (Msb,) حَكَمَ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, K,) inf. n. حُكْمٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and حُكُومَةٌ, (K,) He judged, gave judgment, passed sentence, or decided judicially, بَيْنَهُمْ between them, (S, Msb, K, TA,) and لَهُ in his favour, and عَلَيْهِ against him. (S, TA.) And حَكَمَ عَلَيْهِ بِالأَمْرِ He decided judicially the thing, or affair, or case, against him. (K, TA.) And حَكَمَ لَهُ عَلَيْهِ بِكَذَا [He awarded by judicial sentence in his favour, against him (i. e. another person), such a thing]. (Mgh.) [And حَكَمَ عَلَيْهِ He exercised judicial authority, jurisdiction, rule, dominion, or government, over him. and حَكَمَ بِكَذَا He ordered, ordained, or decreed, such a thing.]

A2: حَكَمَ عَنِ الأَمْرِ He turned back, or reverted, from the thing, or affair. (IAar, Az, K.) A3: حَكُمَ, (S, MA, TA,) with damm to the ك, (S,) like كَرُمَ, (TA,) [not حَكَمَ as in the Lexicons of Golius and Freytag,] inf. n. حُكْمٌ (KL, MA) and حِكْمَةٌ, (MA,) He was, or became, such as is termed حَكِيمٌ [i. e. wise, &c.]. (S, KL, MA, TA.) b2: And حكم, inf. n. حكم, [so in the TA, without any syll. signs, app. حَكُمَ inf. n. حُكْمٌ,] is said of a man, signifying He reached the utmost point, or degree, in its meaning (فِى

مَعْنَاهُ [i. e., app., in what is the radical meaning of the verb, namely, in judging; like قَضُوَ]); in praising, not in dispraising. (TA.) 2 حكّمهُ, inf. n. تَحْكِيمٌ: see 1, in five places. b2: Also [He made him judge; or] he committed to him the office of judging, giving judgment, passing sentence, or deciding judicially; (Mgh, Msb;) or he ordered him to judge, give judgment, pass sentence, or decide judicially; (K;) or he allowed him to judge, &c.; (TA;) فِى الأَمْرِ in the affair, or case. (K.) And حَكَّمْتُهُ فِى مَالِى

I gave him authority to judge, give judgment, pass sentence, or decide judicially, respecting my property. (S, TA.) b3: Hence, حَكَّمَتِ الخَوَارِجُ The [schismatics called the] خوارج asserted that judgment (الحُكْمُ) belongs not to any but God. (Mgh.) تَحْكِيمُ الحَرُورِيَّةِ, in the K, erroneously, ↓ تَحَكُّمُ الحروريّة, (TA,) signifies The assertion of the [schismatics called] حروريّة that there is no judgment (حُكْم) but God's, (K, TA,) and that there is no judge (حَكَم) but God. (TA.) 3 حاكمهُ إِلَى الحَاكِمِ, (K,) inf. n. مُحَاكَمَةٌ, (S,) He summoned him to the judge, and litigated with him, (S, K, TA,) seeking judgment: and he made a complaint of him to the judge; or brought him before the judge to arraign him and litigate with him, and made a complaint of him. (TA.) And حَاكَمْنَاهُ إِلَى اللّٰهِ We summoned him to the judgment of God [administered by the Kádee]. (TA.) بِكَ حَاكَمْتُ, occurring in a trad., is said to mean I have submitted the judgment [of my case] to Thee, and there is no judgment but thine; and by Thee [or thy means or aid] I have litigated in seeking judgment and in proving the falseness of him who has disputed with me in the matter of religion. (TA. [The past tense, here, is perhaps used as a corroborative present.]) 4 أَحْكَمَ see 1, in seven places. The saying of Lebeed, describing a coat of mail, أَحْكَمَ الجِنْثِىَّ مِنْ عَوْرَاتِهَا كُلُّ حِرْبَآءٍ إِذَا أُكْرِهَ صَلٌّ is explained as meaning Every nail repelled the sword from its interstices: [when it was struck with force, it made a clashing sound:] or, as some say, [the right reading is الجنثىُّ and كُلَّ, (as in the S in arts. جنث and صل,) and, accord. to some, صَنْعَتِهَا in the place of عوراتها, (as in the S and M in art. صل,) and] the meaning is, the manufacturer thereof made firm, or strong, every nail [of its interstices, or of its fabric: &c.]: احكم in this case signifying أَحْرَزَ [agreeably with the explanation here next following]. (TA.) b2: احكمهُ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِحْكَامٌ, (TA,) i. q. أَتْقَنَهُ [He made it, or rendered it, (namely, a thing, S, Mgh, Msb,) firm, stable, strong, solid, compact, sound, or free from defect or imperfection, by the exercise of skill; he made it firmly, strongly, solidly, compactly, so that it was firmly and closely joined or knit together, soundly, thoroughly, skilfully, judiciously, or well; he so constructed, constituted, established, settled, arranged, did, performed, or executed, it; he put it into a firm, solid, sound, or good, state, or on a firm, solid, sound, or good, footing: and he knew it, or learned it, soundly, thoroughly, or well; see 1, last sentence, in art. حنك]. (Msb, K.) Hence, in the Kur [xi. 1], كِتَابٌ أَحْكِمَتْ آيَاتُهُ (TA) i. e. [A book whereof the verses are rendered valid] by arguments and proofs; (Bd;) or by command and prohibition, and the statement of what is lawful and unlawful: (TA:) or disposed in a sound manner, (Ksh, Bd,) with respect to the words and meanings, (Bd,) like a building firmly and orderly and well constructed: (Ksh:) or prevented from being corrupted (Ksh, Bd) and from being abrogated: (Bd:) or made to be characterized by wisdom, (Ksh, Bd:) as comprising the sources of speculative and practical wisdom. (Bd.) and hence one says of a man such as is termed حَكِيم, [i. e. wise, &c.,] قَدْ أَحْكَمَتْهُ التَّجَارِبُ [Tryings have rendered him firm, or sound, in judgment]. (TA.) b3: [Hence, أُحْكِمَ عَنْ كَذَا It was secured from such a thing: see مُحْكَمٌ.] b4: [إِحْكَامٌ is also often used as the inf. n. of the pass. verb, signifying The being firm, &c.; or firmness, &c.: see مِرَّةٌ.] b5: See also حَكَمَةٌ.5 تحكّم فِيهِ He did [or decided] according to his own judgment, or did what he judged fit, respecting it, or in it: (Msb:) or he had authority to judge, give judgment, pass sentence, or decide judicially, respecting it; (K, TA;) as also فيه ↓ احتكم: (S, K:) each is quasi-pass. of حَكَّمَهُ; the former regular, and the latter irregular: (TA:) or the former signifies he pretended to have authority to judge, &c. (KL.) You say, عَلَىَّ ↓ احتكم فِى مَالِى He had authority over me to judge, &c., respecting my property. (S.) b2: See also 2.6 تحاكموا إِلَى الحَاكِمِ They summoned one another to the judge, [seeking judgment, (see 3,)] and litigated; as also إِلَيْهِ ↓ احتكموا. (S, TA.) 8 إِحْتَكَمَ see 5, in two places: b2: and 6: b3: and 10.10 استحكم He (a man) refrained from what would injure him in his religion and his worldly concerns. (Aboo-' Adnán, TA.) b2: Also quasipass. of أَحْكَمَهُ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) as signifying أَتْقَنَهُ; (Msb, K;) [It was, or became, firm, stable, strong, solid, compact, firmly and closely joined or knit together, sound, or free from defect or imperfection, by the exercise of skill; firmly, strongly, solidly, compactly, soundly, thoroughly, skilfully, judiciously, or well, made or constructed or constituted or established or settled or arranged or done or performed or executed: and, said of a quality or faculty &c., it was, or became, firm, strong, sound, free from defect or imperfection, established, or confirmed:] and, said of an affair, or a case, it was, or became, in a firm, solid, sound, or good, state, or on a firm, solid, sound, or good, footing; as also ↓ احتكم. (TA.) b3: استحكم عَلَيْهِ الأَمْرُ The thing, or affair, became confused and dubious to him; syn. اِلْتَبَسَ: so in the A. (TA. [But this seems to require confirmation.]) حُكْمٌ [inf. n. of 1, q. v.,] originally signifies Prevention, or restraint. (Msb.) b2: And hence, (Msb,) Judgment, or judicial decision: (S, Msb, K, TA:) or judgment respecting a thing, that it is such a thing, or is not such a thing, whether it be necessarily connected with another thing, or not: (TA:) [whence,] in logic, [what our logicians term judgment; i. e.] the judging a thing to stand to another [thing] in the relation of an attribute to its subject, affirmatively or negatively; or the perception of relation or non-relation: (Kull:) or it properly signifies judgment with equity or justice: (Az, TA:) and ↓ حُكُومَةٌ signifies the same; (K, TA;) originally, accord. to As, the restraint of a man from wrongdoing: (TA:) [each, though an inf. n., being used as a simple subst., has its pl.:] the pl. of the former is أَحْكَامٌ, (K,) [properly a pl. of pauc., but] its only pl. form: and the pl. of the latter is حُكُومَاتٌ. (TA.) You say, وَ يَفْصِلُ ↓ هُوَ يَتَوَلَّى الحُكُومَاتِ الخُصُومَاتِ [He presides over the affairs of judgment, and decides litigations]. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., إِنَّ مِنَ الشِّعْرِ لَحُكْمًا meaning Verily, of poetry, there is that which is true judgment: so says Er-Rághib: or, as others say, profitable discourse, such as restrains from, and forbids, ignorant and silly behaviour; i. e., [what contains] exhortations and proverbs profitable to men: or, the right reading is, as some relate it, ↓ لَحِكْمَةً [i. e. wisdom, &c.]: (TA:) or حِكَمًا [pl. of حِكْمَة]. (So in a copy of the “ Jámi' es-Sagheer ” of Es-Suyootee.) b3: [The exercise of judicial authority; jurisdiction; rule; dominion; or government. See also حُكُومَةٌ. b4: An ordinance; a statute; a prescript; an edict; a decree; or a particular law; like قَضَآءٌ. Hence the phrase حُكْمَ العَادَةِ According to custom or usage; properly, according to the ordinance of custom or usage. b5: A rule in grammar &c.; as when one says, حُكْمُ الفَاعِلِ الرَّفْعُ or أَنْ يُرْفَعَ, i. e. The rule applying to the case of the agent is that it be put in the nom. case; and حُكْمُهُ حُكْمُ كَذَا, or كَحُكْمِ كذا, i. e. The rule applying to it is the same as the rule applying to such a thing, or like the rule applying to such a thing. b6: It may often be rendered Predicament: (thus the last of the foregoing exs. may be rendered Its predicament is the same as the predicament of such a thing, or like the predicament of such a thing:) and حُكْمًا, or فِى الحُكْمِ, predicamentally, or in respect of predicament; and virtually; as distinguished from لَفْظًا (literally), and حَقِيقَةً (really), and the like.] b7: Also Knowledge of the law in matters of religion. (TA.) b8: See also حِكْمَةٌ, in two places. It is a more general term than حِكْمَةٌ; for all حِكْمَة is حُكْم, but the reverse is not the case. (Er-Rághib, TA.) حَكَمٌ: see حَاكِمٌ, in two places; and مُحَكِّمٌ.

[Hence,] الحَكَمُ [The Judge] is one of the names of God. (TA.) b2: A man advanced in age (K, TA) to the utmost degree. (TA.) A2: See also حَكَمَةٌ.

حِكْمَةٌ [properly, or primarily,] signifies What prevents, or restrains, from ignorant behaviour: (Mgh:) [in its most usual sense, which is wisdom, agreeably with explanations here following,] it is derived from حَكَمَةٌ, signifying a certain appertenance of a beast, [a kind of curb,] because it prevents its possessor from having bad dispositions: (Msb:) it means knowledge; or science; (S, K;) as also ↓ حُكْمٌ: (S, TA:) or [generally] knowledge of the true natures of things, and action according to the requirements thereof; and therefore it is divided into intellectual and practical: or a state, or quality, of the intellectual faculty: this is the theological حِكْمَة: in the Kur xxxi. 11, by the حِكْمَة given by God to Lukmán, is meant the evidence of the intellect in accordance with the statutes of the law: (TA:) in the conventional language of the learned, it means the perfecting of the human mind by the acquisition of the speculative sciences, and of the complete faculty of doing excellent deeds, according to the ability possessed: (Bd on the passage of the Kur above mentioned:) or it means the attainment of that which is true, or right, by knowledge and by deed: so that in God it is the knowledge of things, and the origination thereof in the most perfect manner: and, in man, the knowledge and doing of good things: or it means acquaintance with the most excellent of things by the most excellent kind of knowledge: (TA:) [and in the modern language, philosophy: pl. حِكَمٌ:] see حُكْمٌ. b2: Also Equity, or justice, (K, TA,) in judgment or judicial decision; and so ↓ حُكْمٌ. (TA.) b3: and i. q. حِلْمٌ; (K, TA;) i. e. [Forbearance, or clemency, or] the management of one's soul and temper on the occasion of excitement of anger: which, if correct, is nearly the same as equity or justice. (TA.) b4: And Obedience of God: and knowledge in matters of religion, and the acting agreeably therewith: and understanding: and reverential fear; piety; pious fear; or abstinence from unlawful things: and the doing, or saying, that which is right: and reflection upon what God has commanded, and doing according thereto. (TA.) b5: And [Knowledge of] the interpretation of the Kur-án, and saying that which is right in relation to it: so in the Kur ii. 272. (TA.) b6: And The gift of prophecy, or the prophetic office; (K, TA;) and apostleship: so in the Kur ii. 252 and iii. 43 and xxxviii. 19: (TA:) or in the [first and] last of these instances it means b7: The Book of the Psalms [of David]: or, as some say, any saying, or discourse, agreeable with the truth: (Mgh:) and it also means [in other instances] the Book of the Law of Moses: (TA:) and the Gospel: and the Kur-án: (K:) because each of these comprises what is termed الحِكْمَةُ المَنْطُوقُ بِهَا, i. e. the secrets of the sciences of the law and of the course of conduct; and الحِكْمَةُ المَسْكُوتُ عَنْهَا, i. e. the secrets of the science of the Divine Essence. (TA.) حَكَمَةٌ [A kind of curb for a horse;] a certain appertenance of a beast; so called because it renders him manageable, or submissive, to the rider, and prevents him from being refractory and the like; (Msb;) or because it prevents him from vehement running: (TA:) it is the appertenance of the لِجَام [or bridle] that surrounds the حَنَك [or part beneath the chin and lower jaw]: the Arabs used to make it of untanned thong or of hemp; because what they aimed at was courage, not finery: (S:) or the appertenance of the لجام that surrounds the حَنَكَانِ [which word app. here means the two jaws] of the horse, and in which are [attached] the عِذَارَانِ [or two side-pieces of the headstall, that lie against the two cheeks]: (K:) or a ring which surrounds the مَرْسِن [or part of the nose which is the place of the halter] and the حَنَك [or part beneath the chin and lower jaw], of silver or iron or thong: (IDrd in his Book on the Saddle and Bridle:) or a ring which is upon (فى) the mouth of the horse: (ISh, TA:) pl. حَكَمَاتٌ (S, TA) and [coll. gen. n.] ↓ حَكَمٌ. (TA.) Zuheyr says, describing horses, حَكَمَاتِ القِدِّ وَ الأَبَقَا ↓ قَدْ أُحْكِمَتْ meaning قَدْ أُحْكِمَتْ بِحَكَمَاتِ القِدِّ وَ بِحَكَمَاتِ الأَبَقِ [That had been curbed with curbs of untanned thong, and with curbs of hemp]: (S, TA:) or, accord. to Abu-l-Hasan, [the meaning is that had been furnished with curbs &c.; for he says that]

احكمت is here made trans. because it implies the signification of قُلِّدَتْ: (TA:) some relate the hemistich thus: حَكَمَاتِ القِدِّ وَ الأَبَقَا ↓ مَحْكُومَةً

[furnished with curbs of untanned thong, and hemp]. (S, TA.) b2: (assumed tropical:) The chin of a sheep (S, K) or goat. (S.) b3: And, of a man, (tropical:) The fore part of the face: (K, TA:) or, as some say, the lower part of the face: a metaphorical term from the حَكَمَة of the لِجَام: (TA:) or [in some copies of the K “ and ”] (tropical:) his head: [accord. to the CK, or the fore part of the head of a man:] and (tropical:) his state, or condition: and (tropical:) rank, and station. (K, TA.) You say, رَفَعَ اللّٰهُ حَكَمَتَهُ (tropical:) God exalted, or may God exalt, his head, or his state, or condition, and his rank, and station: because the stooping of the head is a characteristic of the low, or abject.
