ى1 أَنَى, (S, M, K,) aor. ـْ (S,) inf. n. إِنٌى (S, M, K) and أَنْىٌ and أَنَآءٌ, (M, K,) or, accord. to [some of the copies of] the M, أَنًى, (TA, [in which this is said to be the right form,]) or أَنًا, (as written in the CK,) said of a thing, Its time came; or it was, or became, or drew, near; syn. أَتَى وَقْتُهُ, and جَآءَ أَنَاهُ; (Bd lvii. 15 [in explanation of a passage cited voce أَنْ];) or حَانَ: (S, M, K:) or أَنَى, aor. ـْ inf. n. أَنْىٌ, signifies it was, or became, or drew, near; and it was, or became, present. (Msb.) You say, أَنَى لَكَ

أَنْ تَفْعَلَ, aor. ـْ and آنَ, aor. ـِ and نَالَ لك, aor. ـِ and أَنَالَ; all meaning حَانَ لَكَ [The time has come, or has drawn near, for thee that thou shouldst do such a thing: or the time of thy doing such a thing has come to thee: or thy doing such a thing has drawn near]: so says Zj; and Fr says the like: but the best of these is أَنَى لَكَ. (T.) And أَنَى الرَّحِيلُ The time of departure came, or drew near; syn. حَانَ وَقْتُهُ. (TA, from a trad.) b2: It came, or attained, to its time; to its full, or final, time or state; to maturity, or ripeness; it became mature, or ripe; (T, S, M, IAmb, * Msb, * K;) or, accord. to some, only when said of a plant; (M, K;) [or it signifies also] it became thoroughly cooked. (T, Msb. *) Hence, in the Kur [xxxiii. 53], غَيْرَنَاظِرِينَ إِنَاهُ Not waiting, or watching, for its becoming thoroughly cooked; or for its cooking becoming finished. (T, S, * M.) [See also إِنًى, below.] You say also, أَنَى الحَمِيمُ, (inf. n. أَنْىٌ, TA,) The hot water became heated to the utmost degree. (S, K.) And أَنَى المَآءُ The water became hot to the utmost degree.

(K.) b2: See also 5, in two places.2 اَنَّىَ see 4, in two places: A2: and see 1. b2: Yousay also, أَنَّيْتُ فِى الشَّىْءِ I fell short, or fell short of what was requisite or what I ought to have done, or flagged, or was remiss, in, or in respect of, the thing. (TA. [The verb is there written without any syll. signs; but the context seems to indicate that it is as above.]) 4 آنى and ↓ أنّى signify the same. (IAar, T, M.) You say, آنَاهُ, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) with medd, (Msb,) aor. ـْ (S,) inf. n. إِينَآءٌ, (S, K,) [in the CK, اَنَيْتُهُ اِنْيًا is erroneously put for آنَيْتُهُ

إِينَآءٌ,] He postponed it, put it off, deferred it, delayed it, retarded it; (T, S, M, Msb, K;) retrained it, withheld it, impeded it; (S, TA;) whatever the thing be. (T.) And الطَّعَامَ فِى النَّارِ ↓ أَنَّيْتُ I kept the food long upon the fire. (TA.) and لَا تُؤْنِ فُرْصَتَكَ Postpone not thou, or defer not, thine opportunity, or the time when thou art able to do a thing. (T.) And it is said in a trad., respecting the prayer of Friday, رَأَيْتُكَ آنَيْتَ وَآذَيْتَ (M, * Mgh, * TA) I see thee to have delayed coming, and to have done what is annoying to others by stepping over the necks [of those already in their places in the mosque]: (As, Mgh, * TA:) a saying of 'Omar. (Mgh.) A2: آنَاهُ also signifies He made him, or it, to be distant, remote, or far off; removed far away, alienated, or estranged, him, or it; like أَنْآهُ [from which it is formed by transposition]. (TA.) [Hence,] يُؤْنِيكَ occurs in a verse of Es-Sulameeyeh; (M, TA;) meaning يُنْئِيكَ; the ء being put before the ن (M.) 5 تأنّى He acted deliberately, or leisurely, not hastily; as also ↓ استأنى; and ↓ أَنِىَ, (M, K,) aor. ـْ (K,) inf. n. أنْىٌ: (TA:) he acted with moderation, gently, deliberately, or leisurely; without haste; and with gravity, staidness, sedateness, or calmness; فِى الأَمْرِ in the affair; as also ↓ استأنى: (Mgh:) or he acted gently; (IAar, T, TA;) as also ↓ أَنِىَ, aor. and inf. n. as above: (TA:) or he acted gently, and waited; فِى الأَمْرِ in the affair: (S:) or he waited, or was patient, or waited with patience, (T, Msb,) and did not hasten, in an affair. (Msb.) التَّأَتِّى and التَّأَنِّى are nearly syn.: you say, تأنّى لَهُ He acted gently with him, [or to him,] and did not hasten in his affair. (Mgh.) You say also, بِهِ ↓ استأنى He waited patiently with him; or waited, and had patience, with him; (S, TA;) he did not hasten him; (Lth, T;) as also ↓ استأناهُ. ('Eyn, Har p. 67.) And بِهِ حَوْلًا ↓ اُسْتُؤْنِىَ [He was waited patiently with for a year]. (S.) and فِى أَمْرِكَ ↓ اِسْتَأْنِ Hasten not in thine affair. (Lth, T.) And فِى الطَّعَامِ ↓ اِسْتَأْنَيْتُ I waited for the food to become perfectly prepared or cooked. (Har p. 67.) And تَأَنَّيْتُ الرَّجُلَ (and عَلَيْهِ, M and K in art. نظر, [see اِنْتَظَرَهُ,]) I waited for the man; as also بِهِ ↓ اِسْتَأْنَيْتُ: whence, بِالْجِرَاحَاتِ ↓ يُسْتَأنَى One should wait for the issues, or consequences, or results, of wounds. (Mgh.) And تَأنَّيْتُكَ حَتَّى لَا أَنَاةَ بِى [I have waited patiently for thee until there is no disposition to wait patiently in me]. (S.) 10 إِسْتَاْنَىَ see 5, passim.

(M, K.) You say, مَضَى إِنْىٌ مِنَ الَّيْلِ and ↓ إِنْوٌ [&c.] A time, or season, [&c.,] (وَقْتٌ, [&c.,]) of the night passed: (M in art. انو:) dual إِنْيَانِ and إِنْوَانِ. (S.) And a poet says, أَتَمَّتْ حَمْلَهَا فِى بَعْضِ شَهْرٍ

وَحَمْلُ الحَامَلَاتِ إنًى طَوِيلُ [She completed her gestation in a portion of a month; but the gestation of the pregnant in general is a long period of time]. (IAar, T.) Another uses the phrase ضَحَّاكُ الأُنِىْ, occurring at the end of a verse, [for ضحّاك الأُنِىِّ,] meaning Found to be laughing whenever one comes to him. (M.) أَنًى: see إِنْىٌ, in two places. b2: The utmost point, reach, or degree, (M, K,) of a thing; (M;) as also ↓ إِنًى: so in the phrase, بَلَغَ أَنَاهُ and إِنَاهُ It (a thing, M) attained its utmost point, reach, or degree: (M, K:) or this means, [or, accord. to the CK, “and” it means,] its state of being thoroughly cooked; its state of maturity; or its full, or final, time or state. (K.) [See 1, where an ex. from the Kur xxxiii. 53 is cited. Both words are said to be inf. ns.]

إِنًى: see إِنِىٌ, in two places: b2: and see أَنًى.

أَنَآءٌ [Postponement; a putting off; a deferring; a delaying; a retarding: restraint; a withholding; an impeding:] a subst. from آنَاهُ, aor. ـْ inf. n. إِينَآءٌ, meaning “he postponed it,” &c.: (S, Msb, * TA:) the context of the K erroneously requires it to be understood as a subst. from أَنَى, aor. ـْ (TA.) إِنَآءٌ A certain thing of which one makes use, (M,) well known; (S, K;) namely, a vessel, or receptacle, (Mgh, Msb,) for water [&c.]: (Mgh:) pl. آنِيَةٌ, (T, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) originally أَأْنِيَةٌ; (M;) and أَوَانٍ; (T, S, M, Mgh, K;) the former a pl. of pauc.; and the latter a pl. of mult., (Mgh,) pl. of آنِيَةٌ.

(M, K, TA. [In the CK, كالاَنْىِ is erroneously put for كَالأَنَى.]) b2: Also Hope: [in this sense, accord. to the TA, written with kesr; but this is doubtless a mistake, probably occasioned by a mistranscription:] so in the charge of 'Orweh to his sons; يَا بَنِىَّ إِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ خَلَّةً رَائِعَةً مِنْ رَجُلٍ فَلَا تَقْطَعُوا أَنَاتَكُمْ مِتْهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَ النَّاسِ رَجُلَ سَؤْءٍ [O my sons, when ye see a quality exciting admiration and approval, in a man, cut not ye off your hope of him, though he be in the estimation of the people a bad man]. (M.) A2: A woman in whom is a languor on the occasion of rising, or standing up; (T, S, K;) and a gentle, or grave, deportment: (S:) or in whom is a languor impeding from rising, or standing up: (As:) and وَهْنَانَةٌ signifies the like: (T:) Sb says that it is originally وَنَاةٌ, like as أَحَدٌ is originally وَحَدٌ; from الوَنَى: (S:) the people of El-Koofeh say that it is only وَنَاةٌ: so says Lth: and he says that أَنَاةٌ signifies, as applied to a woman, blessed, prospered, or abounding in good, as it is explained also by ADk, and forbearing, gentle, grave, staid, sedate, or calm, and compliant, or agreeing with another in mind or opinion: and the pl. is أَنَواتٌ: or, as some say, it signifies a grave, staid, sedate, or calm, woman, who does not clamour, nor utter foul language. (T.) أَنِىٌّ, as part. n. of 1, A thing of which the time has come, or drawn near: and which has come, or attained, to its time; to its full, or final, time or state; to maturity, or ripeness: but accord. to some, only applied to a plant.

A2: Behind, or after, the time; backward, or late; delayed, or held back; (K, TA; [but wanting in a MS. copy of the former in my possession, and in the CK;]) as also ↓ آنٍ. (TA.) إٍنِيهْ a word expressive of disapproval, and of deeming a thing remote or improbable: Sb relates that it was said to an Arab of the desert, who had taken up his abode in a town, or place, “Wilt thou go forth when the desert shall have become plentiful in herbage?” and he said, أَأَنَا إِنِيهْ [What, I, indeed?], meaning “Do ye say this to me when I am know to do thus?” as though he disapproved of their questioning him: but there is much diversity of opinion respecting this word: (TA:) [accord. to some,] it is composed of the redundant إِنْ and the meddeh denoting disapproval [followed by the ه of silence]. (Mughnee voce إِنٌ.) [See what is said of the redundant انْ in the present work.]

أَنَّى signifies Whence? syn. مِنْ أَيْنَ; (T, S, M;) being an interrogative respecting the direction, or quarter, from which a thing is: (Msb:) and whence [used to denote a condition]: (TA:) and where? and where [used to denote a condition]; syn. أَيْنَ: (T, K: [in which latter the first signification is not mentioned:]) and as one of the adverbial nouns used to denote a condition, whencesoever; from whatever direction or quarter: (S:) and wherever; wheresoever: (Lth, T:) and when? and when [used to den a condition]; syn. مَتَى: (T, K: [but in the latter of these, in art. ان, in the place of مَتَى we find حَيْثُ, which I regard as a mistake:]) and how? syn. كَيْفَ: (Lth, T, S, M, K:) and however. (Lth, TA.) [I mention all these significations together because one of them is assigned by some authorities and another by others to انّى in one and the same instance.] You say, أَنَّى يَكُونُ هٰذَا Whence, from what direction or quarter, from what way, will, or should, be this? (Msb.) And أَنَّى لَكَ هٰذَا Whence [came, or cometh,] to thee this? (S.) It is said in the Kur [iii. 32], يَا مَرْيَمُ أَنَّى لَكِ هٰذَا O Mary, whence [came] to thee this? (T.) and in the same [xxxiv. 51], وَأَنَّى لَهُمُ التَّنَاوُشُ مِنْ مَكَانٍ بَعِيدٍ, meaning [But] whence [shall the attaining of belief be possible to them from a distant place, i. e., (as explained in the S in art. نوش,) in the world to come, when they have disbelieved in the present world? or but how &c.?]. (T.) And in the same [1xxx. 25], accord. to one reading, أَنَّى صَبَبْنَا المَآءَ صَبَّا, meaning Where have we poured forth the water, pouring? but in this is an allusion to the direction [whence the rain comes]; and it may be rendered whence? &c.; and accord. to this reading, the pause upon طَعَامِهٌ [immediately preceding] is complete. (IAmb, T.) And you say, أَنَّى تَأْتِنِى آتِكَ, (S, K,) meaning Whencesoever, or from whatever direction or quarter, thou shalt come to me, I will come to thee. (S.) In the saying of 'Alkameh, وَمُطْعَمُ الغُنْمِ يُوْمَ الغُنْمِ مُطْعَمُهُ

أَنَّى تَوَجَّهَ وَالمَحْرُومُ مَحْرُومُ the meaning is, [And he who is given spoil to enjoy, (lit., who is fed therewith,) on the day of spoil, is given it to enjoy] wherever he repairs, or however he repairs, [and the prohibited is prohibited.] (Lth, T, TA.) The saying in the Kur [iii. 159], قُلْتُمٌ أَنَّى هٰذَا means Ye say, When is this? or How is this? (T,) or Whence is this? (T, Bd, Jel.) And أَنَّى شئْتُمْ, in the same, [ii. 223,] may mean Whence, or when, or how, ye will. (TA.) You say also, أَنَّى لَكَ أَنْ تَفْتَحَ الحِصْنَ, meaning How [is it, or will it be, possible for thee to open, or conquer, the fortress]? (S.) آنٍ Hot, or heated, to the utmost degree: applied to hot water, (S, M, K,) in the Kur lv. 44: (S, M:) fem. آنِيَةٌ; occurring in the Kur lxxxviii. 5.

A3: Also A man much characterized by moderation, gentleness, or deliberateness; by a leisurely manner of proceeding, or of deportment, &c.; by patience, as meaning contr. of hastiness; by gravity, staidness, sedateness, or calmness. (S, K. *) أَتَيْتُهُ آنِيَةً بَعْدَ آنِيَةٍ is a phrase mentioned by AAF, meaning I came to him time after time: in which, [says ISd,] I am of opinion that آنية is of the measure فَاعِلَةٌ from الإنَى: but the word commonly known is آوِنَة [pl. of أَوَانٌ; or آيِنَة, which is syn. with آوِنَة: see أَوَانٌ]. (M.)

(TA.) One says also, جَنَاهَا لَهُ and جَنَاهُ إِيَّاهَا [He gathered it, plucked it, or took it from the tree, for him]. (A'Obeyd, K.) And جَنَيْتُكَ أَكْمُؤًا [I gathered for thee truffles]. (TA.) And جَنَى

ذَهَبًا He collected gold from its mine. (TA.) b2: Aboo-Dhu-eyb uses this verb metaphorically, in the phrase جَنَى العُلَى, meaning (tropical:) [He acquired] eminence, or nobility. (TA.) b3: You also say, جَنَى عَلَيْهِ, (S,) or عَلَى قَوْمِهِ, (Msb,) inf. n. جِنَايَةٌ, (S, Msb,) (tropical:) He committed, [against him, or] against his people, or party, a crime, or an offence for which he should be punished; (Msb;) as also ↓ جاناهُ [or جانى قَوْمِهِ]: (TK in art. جر:) [and (tropical:) he brought an injury upon him, or them:] and جَنَى الذَّنْبِ عَلَيْهِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. جِنَايَةٌ, (K,) with kesr, (TA,) (tropical:) He committed the crime, offence, or injurious action, against him; syn. جَرَّهُ إِلَيْهِ: (K: [see art. جر:]) thus used, also, the verb is metaphorical, from جَنَى الثَّمَرَةَ: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and so in the phrase, جَنَى شَرًّا, meaning (tropical:) He brought to pass an evil thing or action. (Mgh.) [See also جِنَايَةٌ, below.] It is said in a trad., لَا يَجْنِى جَانٍ إِلَّا عَلَى نَفْسِهِ (assumed tropical:) [An injurer shall not bring injury save on himself]; meaning that one shall not be prosecuted for an injurious action committed by another, of his relations or of others. (TA.) And a poet says, جَانِيكَ مَنْ يَجْنِى عَلَيْكَ وَقَدْ تُعْدِي الصِّجَاحَ فَتَجْرَبُ الجُرْبُ

[which may be rendered, (assumed tropical:) Thine injurer whom thou shouldst punish is he who brings an injury upon thee: but sometimes the mangy camels infect the sound ones so that these become mangy; and thus a criminal sometimes brings punishment upon his relations: for] A'Obeyd says that جانيك من يجنى عليك is a prov. applied to the case of a man who is punished for an injurious action; because brothers [sometimes] bring injury upon a man [by occasioning his being punished for an injurious action which they have themselves committed], as the latter hemistich of the verse cited above indicates: but AHeyth says that this prov. means الجَانِى لَكَ الخَيْرَ مَنْ يَجْنِى عَلَيْكَ الشَّرَّ [The person bringing thee good is he who brings, or will bring, upon thee evil: perhaps intended as a caution; for the Arabs often suspect that a benefactor has some evil intention]: and he cites the following hemistich: تُعْدِي الصِّحَاحَ مَبَارِكُ الجُرْبِ [meaning Sometimes the places where the mangy camels lie down, and which afford benefit to other camels, infect the sound ones]. (TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov., i. 298.]) You say also, جَنَيْتَ هٰذَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ [Thou hast brought this as an injury upon thyself]. (K in art. جل.) 3 جانى عَلَيْهِ, inf. n. مُجَانَاةٌ, He accused him of a جِنَايَة [or crime, &c.]. (TA.) b2: See also 1.4 اجنى said of a tree, (S, K,) or of a palmtree, (Msb,) It had ripe fruit: (S:) or it attained to the time for the gathering of its fruit: (Msb:) or it attained to maturity: (K:) or, said of a tree, it had fruit to be gathered and eaten: and, said of fruit, it became ripe: (TA:) and, said of grass, or herbage, it became abundant. (KL.) b2: And اجنتِ الأَرْضُ The land had much جَنًى, (S, Msb, K,) i. e. herbage, and truffles, and the like. (S.) 5 تَجَنَّىَ see 1. b2: تجنّى عَلَيْهِ, (S, * K,) or تجنّى عليه ذَنْبًا, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) He accused him of a crime, an offence, or an injurious action, that he had not committed; (S, K;) i. e. he forged against him the charge of his having committed a crime, &c., he being guiltless [thereof]: (TA:) النَّجَنِّى being like التَّجَرُّمُ. (S.) You say also, يَتَجَنَّى عَلَيْنَا مَا لَمْ نَجْنِهِ [He accuses us of committing what we did not commit]. (Abu-l-'Abbás, TA in art. جرم.) 8 إِجْتَنَىَ see 1. b2: اِجْتَنَيْنَا مَآءِ مَطَرٍ We came to rainwater, and drank it: (K:) a phrase mentioned with approval by IAar, but not explained by him: thought by ISd to have this meaning. (TA.) جَنًى [in the CK جَنِىٌّ] Whatever is gathered, or plucked; as also ↓ جَنَاةٌ: (K:) or whatever is gathered, or plucked, from trees, (S,) &c.; (so in a copy of the S;) as also ↓ جَنَاةٌ: (S:) so that these two words are of the same class as حِقٌّ and حِقَّةٌ: or the latter of them is a n. un.: (TA:) or the former signfies what is gathered from trees while fresh; (Msb;) as also ↓ جَنِىٌّ: (Msb:) or this last is an epithet applied to fruit, signifying just gathered or plucked; (S, K;) or gathered, or plucked, while fresh: (TA:) and ↓ مَجْنًى, also, pl. مَجَانٍ, signifies fruit gathered or plucked: (Har p. 369:) جَنًى also signifies fruit [ready to be gathered or plucked]; so in the Kur lv. 54: (Jel:) and is applied to fresh ripe dates: (Fr, K:) and grapes: (TA:) and truffles, and the like: (S:) and even cotton: (TA:) and herbage: (S:) and gold, (K,) which is collected from its mine: (TA:) and cowries, (K,) as though gathered from the sea: (TA:) and honey, (K,) when it is gathered: (TA:) pl. أَجْنَآءٌ (K) and أَجْنٍ, originally أَجْنُىٌ. (TA.) Hence the saying, هٰذَا جَنَاى وَ خِيَارُهُ فِيهِ

إِذْكُلُّ جَانٍ يَدُهُ إِلَى فِيهِ [This is what I have gathered, and the best of it is in it; when every gatherer but myself has his hand to his mouth]: or, accord. to one reading, وَ هِجَانُهُ فِيهِ (which has the same meaning, TA in art. هجن): a prov., ascribed by Ibn-El-Kelbee to 'Amr Ibn-' Adee El-Lakhmee, the son of the daughter of Jedheemeh: he says that Jedheemeh had ordered the people to gather for him truffles, and some of them ate the best that they found; but ' Amr brought to him the best that he found, and addressed to him these words: and 'Alee is related to have repeated them on an occasion of his entering the government-treasury; meaning that he had not defiled himself with anything of the tribute belonging to the Muslims, but had put it in its places. (TA.) جَنَاةٌ: see جَنًى, in two places.

جَنِىٌّ: see جَنًى. Also Dates cut from the tree. (TA.) جِنَايَةٌ, primarily, The act of gathering, plucking, or taking from a tree, fruit: [see 1:] b2: then, (assumed tropical:) The bringing to pass an evil thing, or action: (Mgh, Kull p. 147:) b3: then, (assumed tropical:) Evil, [itself]: b4: then, (assumed tropical:) The doing a forbidden action: (Kull ib.:) specially used in this last sense; though it has a general application: (Mgh:) b5: [as a simple subst., it generally signifies] A crime, an offence, or an injurious action, for which one should be punished: (Msb:) or an action that a man commits requiring punishment or retaliation to be inflicted upon him in the present world and in the world to come: (TA:) or any forbidden injurious action: (Kull p. 134:) and in the language of the lawyers, especially a wounding: and an amputation, or a maiming: (Msb:) and ↓ جَنِيَّةٌ signifies the same as جِنَايَةٌ: (Ham p. 241:) the pl. of جناية is جِنَايَاتٌ and جَنَايَا; but the latter of these pls. is of rare occurrence. (Msb.) جَنِيَّةٌ: see what next precedes.

A2: Also A [garment such as is called] رِدَآء (K, TA,) of a round form, (TA,) made of [the kind of cloth termed]
