جُمْلٌ: see جُمْلَةٌ and جُمَّلٌ; the latter in two places.

جَمَلٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ جَمْلٌ, (K,) which latter is so rare that it is said by some to be used only in poetry, in cases of necessity, (MF,) but it is a correct dial. var., (TA,) a word of well-known meaning; (K;) i. e., [A he-camel; but commonly applied to the camel as a generic term; in like manner as جَامِلٌ is applied to the males and the females; but properly,] the male of the إِبِل; (TA;) the mate of the نَاقَة; (Fr, S, Mgh;) among camels, corresponding to رَجُلٌ among us; (Sh, Msb;) نَاقَةٌ corresponding to مَرْأَةٌ, and بَكْرٌ to غُلَامٌ, and بَكْرَةٌ to جَارِيَةٌ; (Sh, TA;) [in general] peculiarly applied to the male; (Msb;) exceptionally to the female, as in the saying شَرِبْتُ لَبَنَ جَمَلِى, (K,) i. e., I drank the milk of my she-camel; but ISd doubts the correctness of this: (TA:) [as corresponding to رَجُلٌ among us, it signifies a full-grown hecamel:] or it signifies such as is termed رَبَاعٍ [or one in his seventh year]: (S, ISd, K:) or such as is termed جَذَعٌ [or one in his fifth year]: (ISd, K:) or such as is termed بَازِلٌ [or one in his ninth year]: (ISd, Mgh, Msb, K:) or such as is termed ثَنِىٌّ [or one in his sixth year]: (ISd, K:) or, accord. to Z, one that has covered: (TA:) [see also بَعِيرٌ, and بَكْرٌ, and قَعُودٌ:] pl.

(K.) One says of camels, when they are males, without any female among them, هٰذِهِ جِمَالَةُ بَنِى فُلَانٍ [These are the hecamels of the sons of such a one]. (ISk, S. [See also جُمَالَةٌ.]) And they said also جِمَالَانِ [meaning Two herds of camels, thus forming a dual from the pl. جِمَالٌ], like as they said لِقَاحَانِ. (ISd, in TA voce خَيْلٌ.) It is said in a prov., مَااسْتَتَرَ مَنْ قَادَ الجَمَلَ [He does not conceal himself who leads the he-camel]. (TA.) And in another prov., اِتَّخَذَ اللَّيْلَ جَمَلًا (assumed tropical:) He journeyed all the night. (K, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 230.]) b2: الجَمَلُ also signifies A certain fish (IAar, K) of the sea, (IAar, TA,) thirty cubits in length: (K:) or, as some say, جَمَلُ البَحْرِ is the name of a very great fish, also called the بَال, [i. e., the whale,] thirty cubits in length: accord. to some, this, (TA,) or جَمَلُ المَآءِ, (Mgh,) is what is called the كَوْسَج and كُبَع (Mgh, TA) and لُخْم, [i. e., xiphias, or sword-fish,] which passes by nothing without cutting it. (TA.) [In the present day, جَمَلُ البَحْرِ is an appellation of The pelican.] b3: عَيْنُ الجَمَلِ, in the dial. of Egypt, i. q. الشَّاه بَلُّوط [The chestnut].

(S.) [جُمْلَةٌ مِنْ مَالٍ generally means A large sum of money; and in a similar sense جُمْلَةٌ is often used in relation to various things.] It is said in the Kur [xxv. 34], وَقَالَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا لَوْ لَا نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ الْقُرْآنُ جُمْلَةً وَاحِدَةً, i. e., [And those who disbelieved said, Wherefore was not the Kur-án sent down, or revealed, to him] aggregated? (TA:) [or in one aggregate?] or at once? (Bd.) [Hence, بِالجُمْلَةِ as meaning Upon the whole; to sum up.]

b3: And hence, in grammar, (TA,) [A proposition; a clause; a phrase; sometimes, a sentence;] a phrase composed of a subject and an attribute, [i. e., composed of an inchoative and an enunciative, (in which case it is termed جُمْلَةٌ اسْمِيَّةٌ,) or of a verb and its agent, (in which case it is termed جُمْلَةٌ فِعْلِيَّةٌ,)] (KT, TA,) [&c.,] whether affording a complete sense, as زَيْدٌ قَائِمٌ [Zeyd is standing], or not, as إِنْ يُكْرِمْنِى [If he treat me with honour].

(TA in art. حسن.) [See also جَمِيلٌ.] One says, جَمَالَكَ أَنْ لَا تَفْعَلَ كَذَا, (ISd, K,) or أَنْ تَفْعَلَ كَذَا, (IDrd, TA,) meaning, Keep to that which is most comely for thee to do, and do not thus. (IDrd, ISd, K. [But see what follows.]) b2: Also Patience. (Mgh in art. خص.)

A2: Hence, accord. to Abu-l-'Alà, because, when a man becomes fat and in good condition, his جَمَال becomes apparent, (Ham p. 155,) as also ↓ جُمَالٌ and ↓ جُمَّالٌ, (K,) or this last denotes a higher degree of beauty than جَمِيلٌ, (S, Sgh,) and has no broken pl., (TA,) and ↓ أَجْمَلُ, (TA,) Beautiful, goodly, comely, or pleasing, (S, M, Mgh, K,) in person, (M, K,) and good in action, or actions, or behaviour, (M, TA,) or also in moral character: (K:) [like the Greek καλὸς, the Latin pulcher, the French beau, &c.; and so حَسَنٌ:] or elegant, or pretty; i. e., delicately, or minutely, beautiful: (Msb:) [or characterized by much goodness, or beauty or goodliness or comeliness, in his mind, or in his person, or in his actions or behaviour; and also characterized by much goodness communicated from him to others: see جَمَالٌ:] pl. of the first جَمَالٌ: (TA:) fem. جَمِيلَةٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) applied to a woman; (S, Mgh, Msb;) as also ↓ جَمْلَآءُ, (Ks, S, K,) [said to be] an instance of [the measure] فَعْلَآءُ having no [masc. of the measure]

أَفْعَلُ; (TA;) [but see above;] or this is applied to any female as signifying perfect, or complete, in body. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.) It is said in a trad., إِنَّ اللّٰهَ جَمِيلٌ يُحِبُّ الجِمَالَ Verily God is comely in deeds, (TA,) or an Abundant Bestower of good things: He loveth those who are of the like character. (Er-Rághib, TA.) And you say, عَامَلَهُ بَالجَمِيلِ [He treated him with comely, or pleasing, behaviour]. (TA.) And مَاسَحَهُ بِالجَمِيل [He coaxed him, or wheedled him, with comely, or pleasing, behaviour or speech]. (ISd, K. [See 3.]) b2: أَبُو جَمِيلٍ [The kind of plants called] البَقْل; because they embellish by their presence, and render good, the seasoning of food; or because they take away the جَمِيل, i. e., the grease of the flesh-meat, and dry up the food.

In all the forms mentioned above, except the last (جمالة), the word is read in the phrase [in the Kur vii. 38], حَتَّى يَلِجَ الجُمَّلُ فِى سَمِّ الخِيَاطِ [Until the cable shall enter into the eye of the needle]: (K, TA:) I 'Ab reads الجُمَّلُ, (S, TA,) and so do 'Alee and many others: ↓ جُمْلٌ is pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.] of جُمْلَةٌ, a strand of a thick rope; or, accord. to IJ, pl. of جَمَلٌ [q. v.]: the first is explained by Fr as meaning ropes put together; but Aboo-Tálib thinks that he meant ↓ جُمَلٌ, without tesh-deed. (TA.) A2: حِسَابُ الجُمَّلِ, (S K,) thought by IDrd to be not Arabic, (TA,) and ↓ الجُمَلِ, (K,) but IDrd doubts its correctness, The calculation by means of the letters د ج ب ا, &c.

(Msb.) The slave in this case is called مُكَاتَبٌ (S, Msb) and also مُكَاتِبٌ; and so is the master; the act being mutual. (Msb.) [But the lawyers in the present day call the slave مُكَاتَبٌ only; and the master, مُكَاتِبٌ.] الكِتَابَةُ, signifying “ what is written, ” is tropically used by the professors of practical law as syn. with المُكَاتَبَةُ, because the contract above mentioned was generally written; and is so used by them when nothing is written. It was thus called in the age of el-Islám, accord. to Az. These two words are said by Z to be syn.; but it is thought that he may have written the former by mistake for الكِتَابُ, adding the ة by a slip of the pen. (Msb.) 4 اكتب He dictated. (S, K.)

(IKtt.) b3: أَصْغَرَتِ النَّاقَةُ وَأَكْبَرَتْ: see art. صغر.5 تكبّر and ↓ استكبر (S, K) and ↓ تكابر (K) He magnified himself; behaved proudly, haughtily, or insolently; (K;) syn. تَعَظَّمَ: (S:) or تكبّر signifies, as used in the Kur, vii. 143, he considered himself as of the most excellent of the creation, and as having rights which others have not: (Zj:) or this verb has two significations: one of them, he did really good and great actions, exceeding the good actions of others; and hence المُتَكَبِّرُ [applied to God] in the Kur, lix. 23: the other, he affected to do such actions, and boasted of great qualities which he did not possess; as do the generality of men; and hence, مُتَكَبِّر in the Kur, xl. 37; and the verb itself in the Kur, vii. 143: and ↓ استكبر is nearly syn. with تكبّر, and likewise has two significations: one of them, he endeavoured, and sought, to become great; and to do so, when the manner and place and time are such as are requisite, is praiseworthy: the other, he boasted of qualities which he did possess, and feigned such qualities; and to do so is blameable; and in this sense the verb is used in the Kur, ii. 32: (El-Basáïr:) and ↓ تكابر signifies he feigned himself great in estimation or rank or dignity, or in age. (A, TA.) b2: تكبّر عَلَى اللّٰهِ He magnified himself against God, by refusing to accept the truth. (El-Basáïr.) b3: [تكبّر عَنْ كَذَا He was disdainful of such a thing; he disdained it; turned from it with disdain; he held himself above it; like تَعَظَّمَ and تَعَاظَمَ and تَجَالَّ and تَرَفَّعَ.]6 تَكَاْبَرَ see 5, in two places.10 إِسْتَكْبَرَ see 4: A2: see also 5, in two places.

(TA.) b3: I. q. عَظَمَةٌ [which, as an attribute of God, signifies greatness, or majesty, or the like: (see مُنَكَبِّرٌ:) and as an attribute of a man, pride]: (S, Msb, K:) a subst. from التَّكَبُّرُ: (Msb:) as also ↓ كِبْرِيَآءُ; (S, Msb, K;) a word, says Kr, of which there is not the like [in measure], except سِيمِيَآءُ and جِرْبِيَآءُ; for, he adds, as to كِيمِيَآءُ, I think it a foreign word: (TA:) the latter [↓ كِبْرِيَاءُ] occurs as an attribute of God, in the sense of عَظَمَةٌ, (A, Mgh, Jel,) in the Kur, xlv. 36: (Jel:) and as an attribute of men, in the Kur, x. 79, where it is said to signify proud behaviour towards others, (Bd,) or dominion: (IAmb, Bd, Jel:) and both signify pride, haughtiness, or insolence: (K:) or the former, self-admiration, or self-conceit; and the holding one's self greater than others: and the ↓ latter, disdain of submission; an attribute to which none but God has a right. (El-Basáïr.) b4: Unbelief: the association of any other being with God. So in a trad., in which it is said, that he who has in his heart the weight of a grain of mustard-seed of كِبْر shall not enter paradise. (TA.) b5: See also كَبِيرَةٌ.

A2: The main, or greater, or greatest, part of a thing; (Fr. ISk, Az, S, Mgh, K;) as also ↓ كُبْرٌ, (Fr, Mgh, Sgh, K,) like عُظْمٌ; (Fr;) thought by Ibn-ElYezeedee to be a dial. form; but Az says, that the Arabs used the other form [كِبْرٌ]. (TA.) So in the Kur, xxiv. 11, وَالَّذِى تَوَلَّى كِبْرَهُ (Fr, S) And he who took upon himself, or undertook, the main part thereof; namely, of the very wicked lie against 'Áïsheh: (Jel:) thus accord. to the “ Seven Readers ”: and ↓ كُبْرَهُ, which is an extr. reading, (Msb,) the reading of Homeyd Ibn-El-Aaraj, (Fr, Sgh,) and of Yaakoob. (Sgh, Bd.) كُبْرُ سِيَاسَةِ النَّاسِ فِى المَالِ, [app. signifies The main part of men's management is with respect to property, or camels, &c.]. (S.) كَبَرٌ [The caper, or capparis of Linnæus;] a certain plant having thorns; (TA;) an arabicized word, from the Persian [كَبَرْ]; (S;) called in Arabic لَصَفٌ, (Mgh,) or أَصَفٌ: (S, K:) the vulgar say ↓ كُبَّارٌ. (K.) A beverage is described as made of كَبَر and barley: كثر is a mistranscription. (Mgh.) كُبُرٌ: see كِبْرٌ.

The last two, the latter of which is the most common of all, are inf. ns. of كَبِرَ.] You say عَلَتْهُ كَبُرَةٌ, (S, Msb, K,) and كَبُرَةٌ, and مُكْبَرَةٌ, and مَكْبُرَةٌ, (K,) and عَلَاهُ المَكْبِرُ, (S,) or مَكْبِرٌ, (K,) and كِبَرٌ, (TA,) [Age overcame him;] he became old, or advanced in age.

(K.) [See also أَكْبَرُ, and مُتَكَبِّرٌ.] You say تَوَارَثُوا ↓ الْمَجْدَ كَابِرًا عَنْ كَابِرٍ They inherited by degrees dignity, or nobility, one great in dignity and nobility from another great in dignity and nobility: (S:) or one great and noble from another great and noble: (Msb:) or عَنْ is here used in the sense of بَعْدَ [after]: (TA voce طَبَقٌ:) or one overcoming in greatness from another overcoming in greatness. (A.)

(Msb.) b3: [Hence,] A teacher, and master: so in the Kur, xx. 74, and xxvi. 48: (Ks:) and the most knowing, or learned, of a people: so in the Kur, xii. 80. (Mujáhid.) b4: Difficult, severe, grievous, distressing, afflictive, troublesome, or burdensome: (TA:) fem. with ة; occurring in this sense in the Kur, ii. 42. (Bd, TA.) [The fem. is often used in the present day as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates, meaning, An affair, or a matter, that is difficult, severe, grievous, &c.] b5: الكَبِيرُ as an epithet applied to God is syn. with العَظِيمُ [signifying The Incomparably-great]. (TA in art. عظم.) كَبِيرَة A foul, or an abominable, sin, or crime, or offence, forbidden by the law, of great magnitude; such as murder and adultery or forni-cation, and fleeing from an army proceeding against an enemy [of the Muslims], &c.; [contr. of صَغِيرَةٌ;] an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates: (TA:) and ↓ كِبْرٌ and ↓ كِبْرَةٌ [in like manner] signify a great sin, or crime, or offence, for which one deserves punishment: (M, K:) the ة is to give intensiveness to the signification: (TA:) or ↓ كِبْرٌ signifies [simply] a sin, a crime, or an offence, for which one deserves punishment, [as كَبِيرَةٌ is said, not well, to signify, in the Msb,] and is from كَبِيرَةٌ, like خِطْ from خَطِيْئَةٌ: (TA:) pl. of the first, كَبَائِرُ, (Msb, TA,) and كَبِيرَاتٌ also occurs. (Msb.) b2: And see كَبِيرٌ.

كُبَّارٌ: see كَبِيرٌ: A2: and see كَبَرٌ.

كَابِرٌ: see كَبِيرٌ.

أَكْبَرُ [Greater, and greatest, in body, or corporeal substance, and in estimation or rank or dignity: and] more, or most, advanced in age; older, and oldest: (Msb:) fem. كُبْرَى: (S, Msb:) pl. masc. أَكَابِرُ (S, Msb) and أَكْبَرُونَ; but not كُبْرٌ, because this is of a form specially appropriated to an epithet such as أَسْوَدُ and أَحْمَرُ, and you do not use اكبر in the manner of such an epithet, for you do not say هٰذَا رَجُلٌ أَكْبَرُ, unless you conjoin it with a following word by مِنْ, or prefix to it the article ال: (S:) [but see the phrase دَعَا بِكُبْرِهِ, below:] the pl. fem. is كُبَرٌ (S, Msb, K) and كُبْرَيَاتٌ. (Msb.) b2: أَكْبَرُ is also used in the sense of كَبِيرٌ: (Msb:) accord. to some, اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَر means God is great; (Az, Mgh, Msb;) like as هُوَ أَهْوَنُ عَلَيْهِ [in the Kur, xxx. 26,] means هُوَ هَيِّنٌ عَلَيْهِ; (Az, TA;) but this explanation is of weak authority: (Mgh:) accord. to others, the phrase is elliptical, and means God is the greatest great [being]: (Az, TA:) or God is greater than every [other] great [being]: (Msb:) or greater than every [other] thing: (Mgh, TA:) or greater than such as that one knows the measure of His majesty: (TA:) [or it may be rendered God is most great, meaning, greater than any other being:] it is considered as elliptical because it is necessary that اكبر should have the article ال, or be followed by a noun in the gen. case [or by the prep. مِنْ]. (TA.) In the phrase اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ كَبِيراً, the word كبيرا is put in the accus. case [as a corroborative] in the place of the inf. n. تَكْبِيراً, as though one said أُكَبِّرُ تَكْبِيرًا [I magnify Him greatly, after saying اللّٰه اكبر]. (TA.) b3: يَوْمُ الحَجِّ الأَكْبَرِ [The day of the greater pilgrimage,] means the day of the sacrifice: or, as some say, the day of 'Arafeh: and others say otherwise. (TA.) b4: In the following words, in a trad. of Mázin, بُعِثَ نَبِىٌّ مِنْ مُضَرَ بِدِينِ اللّٰهِ الكُبَرِ, there is an ellipsis, and the meaning is, بِشَرَئِعِ دِينِ اللّٰهِ الكُبَرِ [A prophet of Mudar hath been sent with the greatest, or greater, or great, ordinances of God]. (TA.) b5: In a trad. respecting burial, وَيُجْعَلُ الْأَكْبَرُ مِمَّا يَلِى الْقِبْلَةَ means, And the most excellent shall be placed towards the Kibleh: or, if they be equal [in dignity], the oldest. (TA.) [Agreeably with the former rendering,] أَكْبَرُ, in the Kur, xxix. 44, is explained as signifying Better. (TA, art. ذكر.) [And agreeably with the second rendering of the above trad.,] you say هٰذَا أَكْبَرُ مِنْ زَيْدٍ, meaning, This is older than Zeyd. (Msb.) b6: In a trad. of Ibn-Ez-Zubeyr, the phrase دَعَا بِكُبْرِهِ means He summoned his sheykhs, and elders, or great men: كُبْر being here [notwithstanding what has been said above,] pl. of أَكْبَرُ, like as حُمْرٌ is pl. of أَحْمَرُ. (TA.) b7: هٰذِهِ الجَارِيَةُ مِنْ كُبْرَى بَنَاتِ فُلَانٍ means, [This girl is of those advanced in age of the daughters of such a one,] مِنْ كِبَارِ بَنَاتِهِ. (Ibn-Buzurj.) b8: هُوَ أَكْبَرُ قَوْمِهِ: see كِبْرَةٌ.

هُوَ مُكَابَرٌ عَلَيْهِ He has had it (his property) taken from him by force. (A, TA.) المُتَكَبِّرُ, as an epithet applied to God, signifies The Great in majesty: (A:) or the Most Excellent of beings, who has rights which no other has; the Possessor of power and excellence the like of which no other possesses: (TA:) or He whose acts are really good, exceeding the good acts of any other: (El-Basáïr:) or, as also ↓ الكَبِيرُ, the Majestic: or He who disdains having the attributes of created beings: or He who magnifies Himself against the proud and exorbitant among his creatures: the ت in the former word is to denote individuation, not endeavour. (TA.)
