1 دَالَ i. q. دَارَ. (TA.) You say, دالتِ الأَيَّامُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (Msb,) inf. n. دَوْلٌ, (KL,) meaning دَارَت; (S, Msb, K;) [i. e.] The days came round [in their turns]. (KL.) b2: دَوْلٌ also signifies The changing of time, or fortune, from one state, or condition, to another; (K;) and so دَوْلَةٌ. (TA.) [Hence,] one says, دالت لَهُ الدَّوْلَةُ [The turn of fortune was, or became, in his favour; or] good fortune came to him: and دالت عَلَيْهِ الدَّوْلَةُ [The turn of fortune was, or became, against him; or] good fortune departed from him. (MA.) b3: [Golius assigns to دال, with دَوْلَةٌ for its inf. n., as on the authority of the S and KL, two significations app. from two meanings of دَوْلَةٌ, one of which he seems to have misunderstood, and to neither of which do I find any corresponding verb: they are “ Obivit alter alterum in bello: ” and “ superior evasit. ” There are many inf. ns. that have no corresponding verbs.] b4: دال, aor. ـُ (T, K,) inf. n. دَوْلٌ and دَالَةٌ, (K,) or دَوْلَةٌ, (T,) He became notorious [either in a bad or in a good sense]; expl. by صَارَ شُهْرَةً, (IAar, T, K,) i. e. مَشْهُورًا. (TK.) b5: دال الثَّوْبُ, aor. ـُ The garment, or piece of cloth, was, or became, old, and worn out. (Az, S.) [Hence,] جَعَلَ وُدُّهُ يَدُولُ (tropical:) His love, or affection, was beginning to become, or at the point of becoming, worn out. (Az, S, TA.) b6: See also 7.2 دوّل He wrote a د. (TA.) 3 داول, [inf. n. مُدَاوَلَةٌ,] He made to come round [by turns, or to be by turns]: hence the saying in the Kur [iii. 134], و تِلْكَ الْأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا بَيْنَ النَّاسِ And those days, we make them to come round [by turns] to men: (S, * K, * TA:) or this means, we dispense them by turns to men; (Bd, Jel;) to these one time, and to these another; (Bd;) or one day to one party, and one day to another. (Jel.) You say, دَاوَلْتُ الشَّىْءَ بَيْنَهُمْ

↓ فَتَدَاوَلُوهُ [I dispensed the thing among them by turns, and they had, or received, or took, it by turns]. (Bd on the passage of the Kur quoted above.) مُدَاوَلَةٌ also signifies The giving a turn of fortune, or good fortune. (KL. [See what next follows.]) 4 ادالهُ, (M, K,) inf. n. إِدَالَةٌ, (T, TA,) [signifying He gave him a turn of good fortune, or a turn to prevail over another in war, &c.,] is from الدَّوْلَةُ. (T, M, K, TA. [See what next precedes.]) Hence, [in the CK from الدُّولَة,] the saying, أَدَالَنَا اللّٰهُ مِنْ عَدُوِّنَا [God gave us, or may God give us, a turn to prevail over our enemy]. (S, K.) And أَدَالَكَ اللّٰهُ مِنْ عَدُوِّكَ and عَلَى عَدُوِّكَ, i. e. جَعَلَ لَكَ عَلَيْهِ دَوْلَةً [May God appoint thee, or give thee, a turn to prevail over thine enemy]. (Ham p. 547.) And ادال اللّٰهُ زَيْدًا مِنْ عَمْرٍو [God gave to Zeyd a turn to have the superiority over 'Amr;] i. e. God took away the turn of good fortune, or the good fortune, (الدولة,) from

'Amr, and gave it to Zeyd. (Har p. 118.) Hence, also, (TA,) El-Hajjáj said, إِنَّ الأَرْضَ سَتُدَالُ مِنَّا كَمَا أُدِلْنَا مِنْهَا [Verily the earth will be given (?) turn to prevail over us, like as we have been given a turn to prevail over it]; (Lth, T, TA;) meaning that it will consume us, like as we have consumed [of] it. (T, TA.) and [hence] إِدَالَةٌ signifies غَلَبَةٌ [or Victory]: (S, K:) or [rather], as some say, it signifies نُصْرَةٌ [i. e. aid against an enemy]: (Har ubi suprà:) you say, اَللّٰهُمَ أَدِلْنِى عَلَى فُلَانٌ O God, aid me against such a one. (S, and Har ubi suprà. [In the former, وَانْصُرْنِىعَلَيْهِ, as an explicative adjunct: in the latter, اى نصِّرنى عليه, for انْصُرْنِى.]) 6 تَدَاوَلُوهُ They took it, or had it, by turns. (S, Msb, K. See 3.) You say, تَدَاوَلْنَا الأَمْرَ We took [or did] the affair by turns. (M.) and تَدَاوَلْنَا العَمَلَ وَ الأَمْرَبَيْنَنَا We did the work, and the thing, or affair, by turns, among us. (T.) And تَدَاوَلُوا البَاطِلَ They took it by turns to say, or to do, that which was false, wrong, vain, futile, or the like; syn. تَبَطَّلُوا بَيْنَهُمْ. (Az and K in art. بطل.) And تَدَاوَلَتْهُ الأَيْدِى The hands took it by turns. (S.) And تَدَاوَلَتِ الرِّيَاحُ رَسْمَ الدَّارَ The winds blew by turns upon, or over, the remains that marked the site of the house [so as to efface them]; one time from the south, and another time from the north, and another time from the east, and another time from the west. (Az, TA in art. عور.) And, of a thing, you say, يُتَدَاوَلُ (T) or يُتَدَاوَلُ بِهِ (S) [meaning It is taken, or done, by turns]. And تُدُوْوِلَتِ الأَرْضُ بِالرَّعْىِ [The land was pastured on by turns]. (S and K in art. وظب.) [تَدَاوَلُوهُ also signifies They made frequent use of it; i. e., used it time after time, or turn after turn; namely, a word or phrase: but perhaps in this sense it is postclassical: see an ex. in De Sacy's “ Chrest. Arabe,” sec. ed., p. 141 of the Arabic text.] And تَدَاوَلَتِ الأَشْيَآءُ The things alternated; or succeeded one another by turns, one taking the place of another: (L in art. نسخ:) and [in like manner] الأَزْمَنَةُ [the times]. (Msb and K in that art.) [See also 6 in art دفو.]7 اندال القَوْمُ The people, or party, removed, or shifted, from one place to another. (S.) b2: اندال مَا فِىبَطْنِهِ What was in his belly, (M, K,) of intestines or peritonæum, (M,) came forth, (M, K,) in consequence of its being pierced. (M.) b3: And اندال It (the belly) became wide, and near, or approaching, to the ground. (M, K.) Also (K) It (the belly) was, or became, flaccid, flabby, or pendulous; (S, O, K;) and so ↓ دَالَ. (K.) b4: And It (a thing) dangled, or moved to and fro; and hung. (M, K.) دَالٌ One of the letters of the alphabet, (د,) the place of utterance of which is near to that of ت: masc. and fem.; so that you say دَالٌ حَسَنٌ and حَسَنَةٌ [a beautiful د]: the pl. is أَدْوَالٌ if masc., and دَالَاتٌ [if fem.; the latter the more common]. (TA.) A2: Also A fat woman. (Kh, TA.) A3: See also دَالَةٌ.

دَوْلٌ an inf. n. of دَالَ in senses explained above. (K, KL.) A2: Also i. q. دَلْوٌ [A bucket]: (K:) [an arabicized word from the Pers\. دُولْ: or] formed from دَلْوٌ by transposition. (TA.) دَوَلٌ, as an epithet applied to نَبْلٌ [or arrows] i. q. ↓ مُتَدَاوَلٌ. (IAar, M, K. *) So in the saying, يُلُوذُ بِالجَوْدِ مِنَ النَّبْلِ الدَّوَلْ [app. relating to a wild animal, and meaning. He seeks, or takes, refuge in the copious rain from the arrows received in turns by one after another of the herd]. (IAar, M.) A2: See also دَوْلَةٌ.

دَالَةٌ i. q. شُهْرَةٌ [Notoriousness, &c.]: pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] ↓ دَالٌ. (IAar, T, K.) b2: [Accord. to the K, it is also an inf. n.: see 1.]

دَوْلَةٌ A turn, mutation, change, or vicissitude, of time, or fortune, (K, TA,) from an unfortunate and evil, to a good and happy, state or condition; (TA;) [i. e.,] relating to good; as دَبْرَةٌ, on the contrary, relates to evil: (As, T and M in art. دبر:) [therefore meaning a turn of good fortune; a favourable turn of fortune: or] good fortune [absolutely]: (KL:) a happy state or condition, that betides a man: (MF:) [also] a turn which comes to one or which one takes [in an absolute sense]; syn. نَوْبَةٌ: (K in art. نوب:) and [particularly] (K) a turn (عُقْبَةٌ) [to share] in wealth, and [to prevail] in war; as also ↓ دُولَةٌ: ('Eesà Ibn-'Omar, * T, * S, * M, K: *) or each is a subst. [in an absolute sense, app. as meaning a turn of taking, or having, a thing,] from تَدَاوَلُوا الشَّىْءَ signifying “ they took, or had, the thing by turns: ” (Msb:) or ↓ دُولَةٌ is in wealth; and دَوْلَةٌ is in war; (Aboo-'Amr Ibn-El-'Alà, T, S, M, Msb, K;) this latter being when one of two armies defeats the other and then is defeated; (Fr, T;) or when one party is given a turn to prevail (تُدَال) over the other: one says, كَانَتْ لَنَا عَلَيْهِمُ الدَّوْلَةُ فِى الحَرْبِ [The turn to prevail over them in war was ours]: (S:) and قَدْ رَجَعَتِ الدَّوْلَةُ عَلَى هٰؤُلَآءِ [The turn to prevail against these returned]; as though meaning المَرَّةُ: so says Fr: but ↓ دُولَةٌ, he says, is in religions and institutions that are altered and changed with time: (T:) accord. to Zj, (T,) or A'Obeyd, (so in two copies of the S,) ↓ دُولَةٌ signifies a thing that is taken by turns; and دَوْلَةٌ, the act [of taking by turns]; (T, S;) and a transition from one state, or condition, to another: (T: [in this last sense, app. an inf. n.: see 1, third sentence:]) you say, بَيْنَهُمْ ↓ صَارَ الفَىْءُ دُولَةً, meaning [The فىء (or spoil, &c.,) became] a thing taken by turns among them: (S:) and the saying, in the Kur [lix. 7], بَيْنَ الأَغْنِيَآءِ مِنْكُمْ ↓ كَىْ لَا يَكُونَ دُولَةً means That it may not be a thing taken by turns [among the rich of you]: (T:) or دَوْلَةٌ relates to the present life or world; and ↓ دُولَةٌ, to that which is to come: (M, K:) and it is said that the former of these two words signifies prevalence, predominance, mastery, or victory; and ↓ the latter, the transition of wealth, blessing, or good, from one people, or party, to another: (TA:) the pl. (of دَوْلَةٌ, S, Msb) is دَوِلٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) like as قِصَعٌ is pl. of قَصْعَةٌ, (Msb,) and (of ↓ دُولَةٌ, T, S, Msb), دُوَلٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and دُولَاتٌ, (S, TA,) and ↓ دَوَلٌ (M, K) is [a quasi-pl. n.] of both, because, as IJ says, دَوْلَةٌ is regarded as though it were originally دُولَةٌ. (M.) b2: [In post-classical works, it signifies also A dynasty: and a state, an empire, or a monarchy.]

A2: Also The حَوْصَلَة [or stomach of a bird; its triple stomach: or only its first stomach; the crop, or craw]: because of its اِنْدِيَال [or flaccidity]. (Ibn-'Abbaád, K.) And The قَانِصَة [which may here mean the same as the حوصلة, for this is one of the meanings assigned to it, and this explanation of دولة is not given by Ibn-'Abbád: or it may here mean the intestines, of a bird, into which the food passes from the stomach: or the gizzard]. (K.) b2: And The شِقْشِقَة [or faucial bag of the he-camel]. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) b3: And A thing like a مَزَادَة [or leathern water-bag] with a narrow mouth. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) b4: And The side of the belly. (K.) [But] accord. to Ibn-'Abbád, مَا أَعْظَمَ دَوْلَةَ بَطْنِهِ meansHow large is his navel! (TA.) دوُلَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in nine places: b2: and see also what next follows, in two places.

دُوَلَةٌ (T, S, K) and ↓ دِوَلَةٌ (Ibn-'Abbád, TA) [and ↓ دُولَةٌ, as appears from what follows]; as also تُوَلَةٌ (T, S) [and تِوَلَةٌ and تُوَلةٌ]; A calamity, or misfortune: (T, Ibn-'Abbád, S, K:) pl. دُوَلَاتٌ (S) and دِوَلَاتٌ and دُوَلَاتٌ. (Ibn-'Abbád, TA.) You say, جَآءَ بِدُوَلَاتِهِ (S) [and ↓ بِدِوَلَاتِهِ] and ↓ بِدُولَاتِهِ (Ibn-'Abbad, TA) and ↓ بِدُولَاهُ, as also بِتُولَاهُ, (Aboo-Málik, K,) He, or it, came with, or brought, or brought to pass, his, or its, calamities, or misfortunes: (Ibn-'Abbád, S, K. *) دِوَلَةٌ: and جَآءَبِدَوَلَاتِهِ: see دُوَلَةٌ.

جَآءَ بِدُولَاهُ: see دُوَلَةٌ.

(TA.) دَوَالِىُّ A sort of grapes of Et-Táïf, (M, K,) black inclining to redness. (M.) [See also دَوَالٍ, in art. دلو.]

دَوَالَيْكَ i. q. مُدَاوَلَةً, [in the CK, erroneously, مُتَداوَلَةً,] used in an imperative sense [with its verb and the objective complement thereof understood before it, and thus meaning دَاوِلِ الفِعْلَ مُدَاوَلَةً Make thou the action to come round, or to be, by turns]: (M, K:) or it may be rendered as meaning that the thing happened in this manner [i. e. the action being made to come round, or to be, by turns]: (Sb, M:) or it means تَدَاوُلٌ بَعْدَ تَدَاوُل [i. e. a taking, or doing, (a thing) by turn after (another's) doing so, and may be rendered virtually in the same manner as above, i. e. let the action be done by turns: or the action being done by turns]: (S, O, K: [in the PS, تَدَاوُلًا بَعْدَ تَدَاوُلٍ, which better explains the two manners in which it is said to be used:]) IAar says that it is an invariable expression, like حَجَازَيْكَ and هَذَاذَيْكَ; and is from the phrase تَدَاوَلُوا الأَمْرَ بَيْنَهُمْ, said of persons when this takes a turn and this a turn. (T, TA.) 'Abd-Beni-l- Has-hás says, إِذَ شُقَّ بُرْدٌ شُقَّ بِالبُرْدِ مِثْلُهُ دَوَالَيْكَ حَتَّى لَيْسَ لِلْبُرْدِ لَابِسُ [When a burd (a kind of garment) is rent, the like thereof is rent with the burd, the action being done by turns, so that there is no wearer of the burd; it having been rent so as to fall off]: (S:) the poet is speaking of a man's rending the clothing of a woman to see her person, and her rending his also. (T, TA. [This verse is related with several variations: see another reading of it voce هَذَاذَيْكَ, in art. هذ; with another explanation of it.]) b2: Ibn-Buzurj says, (T,) sometimes the article ال is prefixed to it, so that one says الدَّوَالَيْكَ, (T,) meaning One's walking with an elegant and a proud and self-conceited gait, with an affected inclining of the body from side to side, (T,) or one's urging, or pressing forward, and striving, (أَنْ يَتَحَفَّزَ, [in the CK, erroneously, ان يَتَحَفَّزَ,]) in his gait, or pace, (K,) when he moves about his shoulder-joints, and parts his legs widely, in walking. (T, K,* TA. In the copies of the K, جال [or جاءك] is erroneously put for حَاكَ, the reading in the T, TA. [The author of the TK follows the reading جال; and has fallen into several other evident mistakes in explaining this expression; which is itself, in my opinion, when with the article ال, a mistake for الدَّوَالِيْكُ, mentioned in art. دلك.]) A poet uses the phrase يَمْشِى الدَّوَالَيْكَ as meaning Walking, or going, in the manner explained above: (Ibn-Buzurj, T and TA in the present art.:) or يَمْشِى الدَّوَالِيكَ. (TA in art. دلك.) مُنْدَالٌ as meaning Dangling, or moving to and fro; and hanging; is said by Seer to be of the measure مُنْفَعِلٌ from التَّدَلَّى, and formed by transposition; and if so, it has no inf. n.; for the word that is formed by transposition has no inf. n. (M. [But for this assertion I see no satisfactory reason.]) مُتَدَوَالٌ: see دَوَلٌ. b2: [الكَلَامُ المُتَدَاوَلُ signifies, in modern Arabic, The language commonly used.]

ضَغِيطٌ A well having by the side of it another well, (As, S, O, K) and one of them becomes foul with black mud, (As, S, O,) or and one of them becomes choked up, and foul with black mud, (K,) so that its water becomes stinking, and it flows into the water of the sweet well, and corrupts it, so that no one drinks of it: (As, S, O, K:) or a well that is dug by the side of another well, in consequence of which its water becomes little in quantity: or a well dug between two wells that have become choked up. (O.) A2: And A man weak in judgment, (K, TA,) that will not be roused to action with the people: (TA:) pl. ضَغْطَى, (K, TA,) [like مَرْضَى &c.,] because it is as though it were [significant of suffering from] a disease.

You say, أرْسَلَهُ ضَاغِطًا عَلَى فُلَانٍ (tropical:) He sent him as a watcher, &c., over such a one. (S, TA.) And hence what is said in the trad. of Mo'ádh, (S, L,) when his wife asked him, on his return from collecting the poor-rates in El-Yemen, where was the present which he had brought for his wife, and he answered, (L,) كَانَ عَلَىَّ ضَاغِطٌ [There was over me a watcher], (S,) or كَانَ مَعِى ضَاغِطٌ [There was with me a watcher], meaning God, who knows the secrets of men; or he meant, by ضاغط, the trust committed to him by God, which he had taken upon himself; but his wife imagined that there was with him a watcher who straitened him, and prevented his taking to please her.

1 ضَلَعَ, aor. ـَ (S, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. ضَلْعٌ, (S, O, Msb,) It, or (assumed tropical:) he, inclined, or declined: (S, O, K:) it, or (assumed tropical:) he, declined, or deviated, from that which was right, or true: (S, O, Msb, K:) (assumed tropical:) he acted wrongfully, unjustly, injuriously, or tyrannically. (S, * O, * K.) You say, ضَلَعَ عَنْهُ (tropical:) He deviated, or turned away, from him, or it; or he did so, acting wrongfully, &c.: and ضَلَعَ عَلَيْهِ (assumed tropical:) he acted wrongfully, &c., against him. (TA.) And ضَلْعُكَ مَعَ فُلَانٍ (S, O, Msb, * K *) (assumed tropical:) Thy inclining, (S, O, Msb, K,) and thy love, or desire, (S, O,) is with such a one [i. e. in unison with that of such a one]. (S, O, Msb, * K: * in the Msb and K, مَعَهُ is put in the place of مَعَ فُلَانٍ.) And لَا تَنْقُشِ الشَّوْكَةَ بِالشَّوْكَةِ فَإِنَّ ضَلْعَهَا مَعَهَا, (S, O, K,) or بِمِثْلِهَا [in the place of بالشوكة], (Meyd,) [lit. Extract not thou the thorn by means of the thorn, or by means of the like of it, for its inclination is with it,] meaning, demand not aid, in the case of thy want, of him who is more benevolent to the person from whom the object of want is sought than he is to thee: (Meyd:) a prov.: (S, Meyd, O:) applied to the man who contends in an altercation with another, and says, “Appoint thou between me and thee such a one; ” pointing to a man who loves what he [i. e. the opponent of the speaker] loves: (S, O, K:) the author of the K adds, it is said that it should by rule be ضَلَعَكَ, for they say ضَلِعَ مَعَ فُلَانٍ, like فَرِحَ, [as though meaning he inclined with such a one,] but they have contracted it; which is wonderful, in consideration with his having mentioned shortly before, ضَلَعَ, like مَنَعَ, as signifying مَالَ. (TA.) One says also, خَاصَمْتُ فُلَانًا فَكَانَ ضَلْعُكَ عَلَىَّ i. e. (assumed tropical:) [I contended in an altercation with such a one and] thy inclining [was against me]. (S, O.) b2: ضَلِعَ, aor. ـَ (Mgh, Msb, K,) inf. n. ضَلَعٌ, (Mgh, Msb,) meansIt (a sword, K, or a thing, Msb) was, or became, crooked, or curved: (Mgh, Msb, K:) and ↓ تضلّع may mean the same: (Ham p. 80:) a poet says, (namely, Mohammad Ibn-'Abd-Allah El-Azdee, TA,) وَقَدْ يَحْمِلُ السَّيْفَ المُجَرَّبَ رَبُّهُ عَلَى ضَلَعٍ فِى مَتْنِهِ وَهْوَ قَاطِعُ [And verily, or sometimes, or often, its owner bears the tried sword, notwithstanding crookedness in its broad side, it being sharp]: (S, O:) and (K) ضَلَعٌ signifies the being crooked, or curved, by nature; (S, O, K;) as also ضَلْعٌ; whence the saying, لَأُقِيمَنَّ ضَلَعَكَ and ضَلْعَكَ [I will assuredly straighten thy natural crookedness]: (K:) thus in the copies of the K; but this is a mistake, occasioned by the author's seeing in the T and M لَأُقِيمَنَّ ضَلَعَكَ and صَلَعَكَ meaning عَوَجَكَ, and his imagining both these nouns to be with ض and to differ in the manner stated above: (TA:) you say, ضَلِعَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. ضَلَعٌ i. e. he, or it, was, or became, crooked, or curved, by nature: (S, O:) or ضَلَعٌ in the camel is like غَمْزٌ in horses or the like, [meaning the limping, or halting, or having a slight lameness, in the hind leg,] and the verb is ضَلِعَ; and the epithet [or part. n.] is ↓ ضَلِعٌ: (K:) or this is rather the explanation of ضَلْعٌ, with ظ; (TA;) [or as Mtr says,] ضَلْع as meaning what resembles عَرَجٌ [or natural lameness] is correctly ظَلْع: (Mgh:) but when it (i. e. the crookedness, TA) is not natural, one says, ضَلَعَ, like مَنَعَ, (K, TA,) [but this seems rather to relate to the meaning of “ limping,” agreeably with what I have cited above from the Mgh,] and the inf. n. is ضَلْعٌ: (TA:) and the epithet [or part. n.] is ↓ ضَالِعٌ. (K.) A2: ضَلُعَ, [aor. ـُ inf. n. ضَلَاعَةٌ, He (a man, S, O, Msb, [and app. also a horse and the like, see its part. n. ضَلِيعٌ,]) was, or became, strong, or powerful; (S, O, Msb, K;) and strong, hard, or firm, in the أَضْلَاع [or ribs].

A4: ضَلَعَ فُلَانًا He struck such a one upon his ضِلَع [or rib].

[See also the pass. part. n., below.]4 اضلعهُ, (K,) inf. n. إِضْلَاعٌ, (S, O,) It, or he, made it, or (assumed tropical:) him, to incline, or decline; (S, O, K;) [and so ↓ ضلّعهُ; for] الإِضْلَاعُ and التَّضْلِيعُ signify الإِمَالَةُ. (Har p. 77.) b2: [and It, or he, made it, or him, to be crooked, or curved; and so ↓ ضلّعهُ; for] الإِضْلَاعُ and التَّضْلِيعُ signify also التَّعْوِيجُ. (Har ubi suprà.) b3: [Hence,] one says also, أَضْلَعَتْهُ الخُطُوبُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [Affairs, or great or grievous affairs,] burdened him [as though making him to incline, or curving him]. (TA.) A2: See also 8.5 تضلّع: see 1, in the middle of the paragraph. b2: [Also,] (S, O, K,) and ↓ ضَلَعَ, like مَنَعَ, (K,) said of a man, (S, O,) He became filled, (S, O, K,) or what was between his أَضْلَاع [or ribs] became filled, (TA,) with food, (S, O, K,) or drink: (S, O:) or with drink so that the water reached his أَضْلَاع, (K, TA,) and they became swollen out in consequence thereof: (TA in explanation of the former verb:) and the former verb is also expl. as meaning he drank much, so that his side and his ribs became stretched. (TA.) And تضلّع مِنَ الطَّعَامِ He became filled with the food; as though it filled his ribs. (Msb.) 8 الاِضْطِلَاعُ is from الضَّلَاعَةُ [inf. n. of ضَلُعَ] meaning “ the being strong, or powerful; ” (ISk, S, O, and Har p. 391;) الاِضْطِلَاعُ بِالشَّىْءِ signifying The raising the thing upon one's back, and rising with it, and having strength, or power, sufficient for it. (Har ibid.) And you say, اضطلع بِحَمْلِهِ, meaning He had strength, or power, to bear it, or carry it. (Mgh, and Har p. 645.) [See also the part. n., below.] and بِالأَمْرِ ↓ أَضْلَعَ (assumed tropical:) He had strength, or power, sufficient for the affair; as though his ribs had strength to bear it.

And applied to a spear as meaning Crooked, or curved; not straightened: (TA:) or, so applied, inclining, or bending: (Ham p. 80:) and ↓ ضَلِيعٌ and ↓ ضَالِعٌ, so applied, [likewise] mean crooked, or curved. (TA.) b2: See also 1, in the last quarter of the paragraph.

(O, K, TA.) b2: Also (assumed tropical:) A piece of stick or wood; syn. عُودٌ; [erroneously supposed by Golius and Freytag to mean here the musical instrument thus called;] (IAar, O, K;) so in a saying of the Prophet to a woman, respecting a blood-stain on a garment, حُتِّيهِ بِضِلَعٍ (assumed tropical:) [Scrape thou it off with a piece of stick]: (IAar, O:) or (assumed tropical:) such as is wide and curved; as being likened to the ضِلَع (O, K) of an animal.

(TA.) مُضْطَلِعٌ is from الضَّلَاعَةُ [inf. n. of ضَلُعَ]: so in the saying, فُلَانٌ مُضْطَلِعٌ بِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ i. e. Such a one is possessed of strength, or power, sufficient for this affair: so says ISk: and he adds that one should not say مُطَّلِعٌ: Aboo-Nasr Ahmad Ibn-Hátim says, one says هُوَ مُضْطَلِعٌ بِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ and مُطَّلِعٌ له [also]; الاِضْطِلَاعُ being from الضَّلَاعَةُ meaning القُوَّةُ; and الاِطِّلَاعُ being from العُلُوُّ, from the saying اِطَّلَعْتُ الثَّنِيَّةَ meaning عَلَوْتُهَا [I ascended upon the mountain, or mountain-road, termed ثَنِيَّة]; i. e. he is one who has ascendancy with respect to this affair, who is master of it: (S, O, TA:) Lth expressly allows مُطَّلِعٌ for مُضْطَلِعٌ by the incorporation of the ض into the [letter that is originally] ت, so that the two together become ط with teshdeed. (TA.) and لِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ ↓ هُوَ مُضْلِعٌ means the same as مُضْطَلِعٌ as first expl. above, i. e. He is possessed of strength, or power, sufficient for this affair. (O, K. [In both, in this instance, لِهٰذَا, not بِهٰذَا.]) In the phrase إِذَا كَانَ مُضْطَلِعًا عَلَى حَقِّهِ [If he be possessed of power, or ability, to obtain his right, or due], it seems that مضطلعا is made trans. by means of على because made to imply the meaning of قَادِرًا or مُقْتَدِرًا. (Mgh.) ↓ مُسْتَضْلِعٌ, likewise, signifies Having strength, or power. (TA.) مُسْتَضْلِعٌ: see what next precedes.

And اغفر It (the [species of tree, or shrub, called] رِمْث, S, and the عُرْفُط, [&c.,] TA) exuded, or produced, its مَغَافِير. (S, TA.)

(O, TA.) 5 تغفّر and ↓ تَمَغْفَرَ He gathered what is called مِغْفَر and مُغْفُور [see the latter of these two words]. (S, K.)

1 غَبَطَهُ aor. ـِ (S, K,) inf. n. غَبْطٌ, (S,) He felt with his hand his (a ram's) أَلْيَة [i. e. rump, or tail, or fat of the tail,] in order to see if he were fat or not: (S, K:) and he felt it (his back) with his hand in order to know whether he were lean or fat: (Lth, K: *) and in like manner the verb is used in relation to a she-camel. (TA.) A2: غَبَطَهُ, aor. ـِ (ISk, Az, S, Msb, K;) and غَبِطَهُ, aor. ـَ (Ibn-Buzurj, Sgh, K;) inf. n. غَبْطٌ (ISk, Az, S, Msb, K) and غِبْطَةٌ, (S, K,) or the latter is a simple subst.; (Msb;) He regarded him [with unenvious emulation, i. e.] with a wish for the like of his condition, (ISk, Az, S,) meaning a good condition, (Az,) or for the like of that which he had attained, (Msb,) or for a blessing, (K,) and that it might not pass away, (ISk, K,) or without desiring that it should pass away, (Az, S, Msb,) from the latter person: (ISk, Az, S, Msb, K:) the doing so is not حَسَدٌ, (Az, S, Msb,) for this implies the desire that what is wished for may pass away from its possessor; (Az, Msb;) or it is a kind of حَسَد, of a more moderate quality: (Az:) or غِبْطَةٌ and غَبْطٌ have the signification shown above, and are also syn. with حَسَدٌ; (K;) this latter meaning is assigned to غَبْطٌ by IAar; and it is said that the Arabs use غَبْطٌ in the sense of حَسَدٌ metonymically; (TA;) [so that غَبَطَهُ and غَبِطَهُ may also mean (tropical:) he envied him; &c.; see an ex. in a prov. cited voce بَطْنٌ; but it is said that] حَسَدٌ, when it is for courage and the like, is syn. with غِبْطَةٌ, and then it implies admiration, without a wish that the thing admired may pass away from its possessor. (Msb in art. حسد.) You say, غَبَطَهُ بِهِ, (S,) and عَلَيْهِ, (IAth,) and فِيهِ, (Msb,) He regarded him with a wish for the like of it, meaning a thing or state which he had attained, without desiring that it should pass away from the latter person. (S, IAth, * Msb.) Mohammad was asked, “Does الغَبْط injure? ” and he answered, “Yes, like as الخَبْط injures: ” or, accord. to the relation of A'Obeyd, “No, save as الخَبْط injures the [trees called] عِضَاه: ” (Az, TA:) [see خَبَطَ:] by الغيط meaning, accord. to some, الحَسَد: (TA:) or a kind thereof, of a more moderate quality; injurious, but not so injurious as الحسد whereby one wishes that a blessing may pass away from his brother; الخبط meaning the beating off the leaves of trees; after which they become replaced, without there resulting any injury therefrom to the stock and branches: moreover, الغبط sometimes occasions the smiting of its object with the evil eye. (Az, TA.) [See also غِبْطَةٌ, below.]

A3: Accord. to IKtt, غَبَطَ signifies also He lied; but perhaps it is a mistranscription for عَبَطَ, which has this meaning; for it is not mentioned by any other. (TA.) 2 غَبَّطَ It is said in a trad., جَآءَ وَهُمْ يُصَلُّونَ فَيَجْعَلَ يُغَبِّطُهُمْ; thus it is related, meaning, [He came to them while they were praying, and he began] to incite them to wish for the like of that action: if related without teshdeed, [يَغْبِطُهُمْ,] the meaning is, to regard them with a wish for the like condition, because of their forwardness to prayer.

And [hence] one says, خَاصَمَنِى فَاغْتَرَقْتُ حَلْبَتَهُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) [He contended with me in an altercation, or he disputed, or litigated, with me, and] I overcame him in the altercation, &c. (TA.) b2: اغترق التَّصْدِيرَ, (O, K, TA,) or البَطَانَ, (O, TA,) (tropical:) He (a camel), his belly being large, (O, K, TA,) and his sides being swollen, (O, TA,) took up the whole of the breast-girth, (O, K, TA,) or the belly-girth, (O, TA,) so that it was too strait for him; as also ↓ استغرقهُ. (O, K, TA.) b3: And اغترق النَّفَسَ (assumed tropical:) He took in the whole of the breath in drawing it in, or back, with vehemence. (S, O, TA.) Accord. to the copies of the K, اغترقت الَّفْسُ, meaning اِسْتَوْعَبَت: but this is a mistake: the correct phrase is اغترق النَّفَسَ, the latter word مُحَرَّكَة [and in the accus. case]; and the explanation, اِسْتَوْعَبَهُ فِى الزَّفِيرِ. (TA.) b4: And تَغْتَرِقُ نَظَرَهُمْ, said of a woman, (tropical:) [She engrosses their look; i. e.] she occupies them in looking at her so as to divert them from looking at other than her, by reason of her beauty: (O, K, TA:) and in like manner one says, تغترق الطَّرْفَ (tropical:) [she engrosses the look]. (O, TA.) [See also what next follows.]10 استغرق (tropical:) He, or it, took, took in or comprised or comprehended or included, or took up or occupied, altogether, wholly, or universally; took in the gross; engrossed; syn. اِسْتَوْعَبَ. (S, O, K, TA.) Hence the phrase of the grammarians, لَا لِاسْتِغْرَاقِ الجِنْسِ (tropical:) [لا denoting the universal inclusion of the genus]. (TA.) [Hence also several other conventional usages of the word]. See also 8 [with which it is interchangeable in several cases]. b2: اِسْتَغْرَقَ فِى الضَّحِكِ is like, (O, TA,) or syn. with, (K,) اِسْتَغْرَبَ (tropical:) [He exceeded the usual bounds, or degree, in laughing; was immoderate in laughing]. (O, K, TA.) [And in the same sense the verb is used in other cases. See also 4, last signification.]12 اِغْرَوْرَقَتْ عَيْنَاهُ His eyes shed tears (S, O, K, TA) as though they were drowned therein: (O, K, TA:) or اِغْرَوْرَقَتْ عَيْنَاهُ بِالدُّمُوعِ his eyes filled with tears but did not overflow. (ISk, Az, TA.) Q. Q. 1 غَرْقَأَتْ, as said of a hen, mentioned in this art. in the K (as being Q. Q.) and also in the TA as said of an egg, see in art. غرقأ.

غَرِقٌ and ↓ غَارِقٌ and ↓ غَرِيقٌ part. ns. of غَرِقَ, (S, O, Msb, K,) the first and second signifying [Drowning; or] sinking in water without dying; (S, * Msb;) and the third, [drowned; or] dead by sinking in water; (Kh, Msb;) i. q. مُغْرَقٌ or مُغَرَّقٌ; (so in different copies of the S;) and accord. to the Bari', the third may have both meanings agreeably with analogy; (Msb;) [see an instance of its usage in the former sense voce تَغَمْغَمَ; and the first is sometimes used in the latter sense; for] it is said in a trad. that the غَرِق is of those who are [reckoned as] شُهَدَآء [or martyrs: see شَهِيدٌ]; (O, TA;) though it is said that غَرِقٌ signifies sinking in water [like as does غَارِقٌ]; and غَرِيقٌ, dead therein; or, accord. to Aboo-'Adnán غَرِقٌ signifies overcome by the water but not having yet sunk; and غَرِيقٌ, having sunk [therein]: (TA:) the pl. of غَرِيقٌ is غَرْقَى. (Mgh, O, Msb, K. *) b2: It is said in a trad., يَأْتِى عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لَا يَنْجُو فِيهِ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَنْ دَعَا دُعَآءَ الغَرِقِ [A time will come upon men in which no one will become safe but he who prays with the praying of the drowning]; app. meaning, but he who is sincere in praying, as is he who is on the brink of destruction. (TA.) b3: And مَاتَ غَرِقًا فِى الخَمْرِ, in another trad., means (tropical:) He died going to the utmost point, or degree, in the drinking of wine. (TA.) b4: أَرْضٌ غَرِقَةٌ means Land in the utmost state of irrigation. (IF, A, O, K.) b5: غَرِقٌ and ↓ غَرِيقٌ also signify (tropical:) A man much [or deeply] in debt: and overwhelmed by trials. (TA.) b6: and one says, إِنَّهُ لَغَرِقُ الصَّوْتِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) Verily he is frightened so that his voice is stopped short. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) غُرْقَةٌ A single draught (شَرْبَة [in the CK شُرْبَة]) of milk, &c.: (A 'Obeyd, S, O, K:) or a small quantity of milk, and of beverage, or peculiarly of the former: (TA in art. عرق:) pl. غُرَقٌ. (A 'Obeyd, S, O, K.) غِرْقِئٌ: see art. غرقأ: its hemzeh is augmentative (O, K) accord. to Fr: (O, TA:) and Aboo-Is-hák [i. e. Zj] held it to be so: (IJ, MF, TA:) but in the opinion of MF, there is no probable reason for this, either on the ground of analogy or of derivation. (TA.) غَرِيقٌ: see غَرِقٌ, in two places. b2: One says also, أَنَا غَرِيقُ أَيَادِيكَ, meaning (tropical:) [I am the drowned in the flood] of thy favours. (TA.) غِرْيَاقٌ A certain bird: (IDrd, O, K:) so they assert: but it is not of established authority. (IDrd, O.) غَارِقٌ: see غَرِقٌ, first sentence.

غَارِيقُونٌ, (Mgh, K,) or أَغَارِيقُونٌ, (K,) an ancient Greek word, [a>garikon,] (TA,) A certain medicine; a thing [or substance] resembling

أَنْجُذَان; [see حِلْتِيتٌ;] male and female; in the bitterness of which is a sweetness: (Mgh:) or the root, or stem, (أَصْل,) of a certain plant: or a certain thing [or substance] which originates in worm-eaten trees; an antidote to poisons, (K, TA,) an attenuant of turbid humour, exhilarant, (K, * TA,) and good for sciatica; and [it is said that] he upon whom it is suspended will not be stung by a scorpion. (K, TA.) مُغْرَقٌ: see مُغَرَّقٌ.

مُغْرق, [as though مُغَرِقٌ, but I think it more probable that it is correctly ↓ مُغَرِّقٌ,] applied to a she-camel, That casts her young one, in a perfect state or otherwise, and will not be made to incline to it, or to affect it, nor will be milked; not such as yields her milk copiously, nor [such as is termed]

خَلِفَة [q. v.]. (TA.) مُغَرَّقٌ, applied to a bridle, (tropical:) Ornamented, (S, O, K,) or ornamented in a general manner, (TA,) with silver; (S, O, K, TA;) as also ↓ مُغْرَقٌ: (K:) and likewise applied to the scabbard of a sword. (TA.) مُغَرِّقٌ: see مُغْرِق.

رَمَضَانُ مُغَارِقٌ [The observance of Ramadán is obligatory]. (TA.)

(Msb.) b4: And A serpent: pl. أَغْوَالٌ: (K:) accord. to Az, the Arabs call serpents أَغْوَال; and thus this word is said to mean in the verse of Imra-el-Keys, لِيَقْتُلَنِى وَالمَشْرَفِىُّ مُضَاجِعِى

وَمَسْنُونَةٌ زُرْقٌ كَأَنْيَابِ أَغْوَالِ [To slay me, while the Meshrefee sword was my bedfellow, and so were sharpened, polished arrowheads, like the fangs of serpents]: (O, TA: *) but AHát says that this is meant as an exaggeration: (TA:) and it is said that the poet here means devils.

(TA. voce خِبْثَةٌ.) b4: See also غُولٌ, latter half. b5: [Its pl.] غَوَائِلُ also signifies Places of destruction.

(S, O: immediately following the explanation of the saying, الغَضَبُ غُولُ الحِلْمِ.) b2: [Hence, perhaps,] عَيْشٌ أَغْوَلُ A soft, or plentiful and easy, life; (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K;) as also ↓ غُوَّلٌ. (K.) مِغْوَلٌ [primarily] An instrument with which a thing is destroyed.
