(M.) b2: وَسَطَ الشَّىْءَ also signifies He, or it, was, or became, in the best part of the thing, most remote from the two extremes. (TA.) And وَسَطَهُ He alighted, or took up his abode, in, or among, the best, or most generous, thereof. (M.) and وَسَطَ الرَّجُلُ قَوْمَهُ, and فِى قَوْمِهِ, inf. n. وَسَاطَةٌ, The man occupied, or held, a middle place, [meaning the best place, or one of the best places,] among his people, in respect of truth and equity. (Msb.) And وَسَطَ قَوْمَهُ فِى الحَسَبِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. سِطَةٌ, [He held a middle, or good, or the best, rank among his people in regard of grounds of pretension to respect.] (M.) And وَسُطَ فِى

حَسَبِهِ, [aor. ـْ inf. n. وَسَاطَةٌ and سِطَةٌ, [He held a middle, or good, or the best, rank in regard of his grounds of pretension to respect;] (M, TA;) and وَسَطَ signifies the same; (M;) and so does ↓ وسّط, (M, TA,) inf. n. تَوْسِيطٌ. (TA.) [See وَسَطٌ, below.]2 وسّطهُ, (K,) inf. n. تَوْسِيطٌ, (S, K,) He put it in the middle, or midst. (S, K.) b2: And [so in the S, but in the K “ or,”] He cut it [in the middle, or midst, i. e.] in two halves. (S, K.) [See the pass. part. n., below.] b3: [In the Kur, c. 5,] some read, فَوَسَّطْنَ بِهِ جَمْعًا [which may mean And have put in the midst, thereby, a company of the enemy: or have divided in two halves, thereby, &c.: or have thereby become in the midst of a company of the enemy]: (S, TA:) others read فَوَسَطْنَ. (TA.) See 1, first sentence. b4: وسّط فى حَسَبِهِ: see 1, last sentence.5 تَوَسَّطَ see 1, first sentence, in four places. b2: توسّط بَيْنَ النَّاسِ He mediated, or interceded, between the men, or people, for the purpose of accommodation; from وَسَطَ الرَّجُلُ قَوْمَهُ and فِى

قَوْمِهِ, explained above; (Msb;) or from وَسَاطَةٌ; (S;) he made mediation, or intercession, (عَمِلَ الوَسَاطَةَ,) between them. (K.) b3: توسّط also signifies He took what was of a middle sort, between the good and the bad. (K.) وَسْط, with the س quiescent, is an adv. n.; [as such written وَسْطَ, meaning In the middle of: in the midst of; or among;] (S, M, IB, Mgh, K;) and it is for this reason that it has its middle letter quiescent, (S, IB,) like بَيْنَ (IB) with which it is syn.; (IB, Msb;) [for] it may be used in any case in which بَيْنَ may be substituted for it; (S, IAth, K;) and, like بَيْنَ, it does not denote a part of the thing denoted by the noun to which it is prefixed, wherein differing from ↓ وَسَط. (S, IB, K.) You say, جَلَسْتُ وَسْطَ القَوْمِ (S, IB, Msb) I sat [in the middle of, or in the midst of,] or among, the people, or company of men, (IB, Msb;) not being one of them. (IB.) And وَسْطَ رَأْسِهِ دُهْنٌ [In the middle of his head is oil]; not meaning a component part of the head. (IB.) And it is said in a trad.

الجَالِسُ وَسْطَ الحَلْقَةِ مَلْعُونٌ [The sitter in the midst of the ring is cursed]: for he must of necessity turn his back towards some of those who surround him, and so displease them; wherefore they curse him and revile him. (IAth.) b2: It may not [properly] be used as a decl. n., (IB,) i. e. as an inchoative, (Mgh,) nor as an agent, nor as an objective complement; (IB, Mgh) &c.; thus, also, differing from ↓ وَسَط; unless it have the adverbial particle [فِى] prefixed to it; in which case it has the sense of وَسَط, and you say, جَلَسْتُ فِى وَسْطِ القَوْمِ and فى وَسْطِ رَأْسِهِ دُهْنٌ [like as you say جَلَسْتُ وَسْطَ القَوْمِ and وَسْطَ رَأْسِهِ دُهنٌ, explained above]: and sometimes it is used as a subst., preserving the quiescence [and the adverbial form], like as بَيْنَ is used as a subst. though virtually an adv. n., in cases like that where it is said in the Kur, [vi. 94,] لَقَدْ تَقَطَّعَ بَيْنَكُمْ [meaning مَا بَيْنَكُمْ, or, as explained in the Expos. of the Jel., وَصْلُكُمْ بَيْنَكُمْ]: (IB:) or وَسْط is sometimes used for ↓ وَسَط, improperly; (S;) or it may be so used; (Msb;) or it is so used by poetic license; (M;) or, as some say, each of them may take the place of the other; and this seems the most likely: (IAth:) or one says وَسْط, with sukoon, only, of that whereof the component parts are separate, or distinct, (IAth, K *,) such as a number of men, and beasts of carriage, &c.; (IAth;) and ↓ وَسَط, (IAth,) or both, (K,) of that whereof the component parts are united, (IAth, K *,) such as a house, and the head, (IAth,) or such as a ring: (K:) it is related, as on the authority of Th, that الشَّىْءِ ↓ وَسَطُ and وسْطُهُ [both meaning The middle, or midst, of the thing] are said when the thing is solid; but when its component parts are separate, or distinct, the word is وَسْطٌ, with sukoon, exclusively. (M.) وَسَطٌ [The middle, midst, or middle part, of a thing; i. e.,] properly, the part of which several lateral, or outer, portions are equal; as, for instance, the middle finger: but also meaning the part which is surrounded, or enclosed, on its several sides, although unequally: (Msb:) or the part that is between the two sides or extremities of a thing; (M, IB, Mgh, K;) [or the part, or point, that is between every two opposite extremities of a thing; and properly when equidistant;] as, for instance, the centre of a circle: (Mgh:) as also ↓ أَوْسَطُ, (M, K,) which is [likewise] a subst., like أَفْكَلٌ and أَزْمَلٌ [but imperfectly decl. because originally an epithet]: (M:) وَسَطٌ has its middle letter with fet-h in order that it may agree in measure with its contr., which is طَرَفٌ; the like agreement being frequent: (IB:) and it is only used in cases in which بَيْنَ may not be substituted for it, herein [and in other respects, mentioned in the next preceding paragraph,] differing from وَسْط: (S, IB, K:) [respecting the similar and dissimilar usages of وَسَط and وَسّط, sufficient observations have been made in the next preceding paragraph, which see throughout, and more especially in its latter part:] the pl. of وَسَطٌ is أَوْسَاطٌ; and that of its syn. ↓ أَوْسَطُ is أَوَاسِطُ; or this may be a pl. of ↓ وَاسِطٌ, and originally وَوَاسِطُ. (M.) You say, جَلَسْتُ فِى

وَسَطِ الدَّارِ [I sat in the middle, or middle part, of the house]; (S, Mgh, Msb;) because وَسَط is a subst. (S.) And إِتَّسَعَ وَسَطُهُ [The middle, or middle part, thereof, became wide]. (Mgh, Msb.) And ضَرَبْتُ وَسَطَ رَأْسِهِ [I smote the middle, or middle part, of his head]. (Mgh, * Msb.) And كَسَرْتُ وَسَطَ الرُّمْحِ [I broke the middle, or middle part, of the spear]. (IB.) And وَسَطُهُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ طَرَفِهِ [The middle, or middle part, thereof is better than the extremity]. (Mgh, Msb.) And خَيَرُ الأُمُورِ أَوْسَاطُهَا The best of affairs, or actions, or cases, are such of them as are between two extremes. (M. [See R. Q. 1, in art. حق.]) It is sometimes put in the accus. case as an adv. n.; as in the saying, جَلَسْتُ وَسَطَ الدَّارِ; but this is an instance of departure from the original usage; and [the meaning is جَلَسْتُ فِى وَسَطِ الدَّارِ signifying as explained above; so that] it is not here syn. with بَيْنَ, like as وَسْطَ is. (IB.) b2: It is also used as an epithet: (IB, Mgh:) [as such signifying Middle; intermediate; midway, or equidistant, between the two extremities or extremes; in place, or position: but in this sense superseded in usage by ↓ أَوْسَطُ and ↓ وَاسِطٌ and ↓ مُتَوَسِّطٌ: and in time; but in this sense also superseded in usage by ↓ أَوْسَطُ:] middling; of middle sort, kind, or rate; (Msb;) as also ↓ أَوْسَطُ (S, * M, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ مُتَوَسِّطٌ (M, Mgh, Msb) and ↓ وَسُوطٌ (M, TA) [and ↓ وَسِيطٌ]; between good and bad; (Msb, TA;) as also ↓ أَوْسَطُ: (Msb:) conforming, or conformable, to the just mean; just; equitable: (Zj, S, K:) good; (Zj, M, Msb, K;) as also ↓ وَسِيطٌ: (M:) most conforming, or conformable, to the just mean; most just; most equitable; applied to what is so of a thing; (S, M, K;) whatever it be; (S, K;) as also ↓ أَوْسَطَ: (M:) best; (Msb;) as also ↓ أَوْسَطُ: (S, * Msb, K *:) most generous: (M:) and when used as an epithet, it is applied alike to a masc., fem., sing., dual, and pl., subst.: (Mgh:) the fem. of ↓ أَوْسَطُ is وُسْطَى; (Mgh, Msb;) and the pl. masc. أَوَاسِطُ; and pl. fem. وُسَطٌ. (Msb.) Hence, (Msb,) ↓ الإِصْبَعُ الوُسْطَى (S, Msb, K) The middle finger. (Msb.) And ↓ اليَوْمُ الأَوْسَطُ [The middle day]. (Msb.) And ↓ اللَّيْلَةُ الوُسْطَى [The middle night. (Msb.) And ↓ العَشَرَةُ الأَوَاسِطُ, meaning The [ten middle] days. (Msb.) And العَشْرُ

↓ الوُسَطُ, meaning The [ten middle nights: not ↓ العَشْرُ الأَوْسَطُ; for this is a vulgar mistake, into which relaters of traditions have fallen; or it may be a mistake of transcription. (Msb.) and ↓ الصَّلٰوةُ الوُسْطَى, (M, Mgh, &c.,) mentioned in the Kur, [ii. 239,] (M, K,) meaning The middle prayer (Bd, TA) between the other prayers, (Bd,) or between the prayers of the night and the day; (TA;) or the most excellent of them in particular: (Bd:) i. e. the prayer of the afternoon; ('Alee Ibn-Abee-Tálib, I'Ab, and others, Mgh, Bd, K;) because the prophet said, on the day of the Ahzáb, “they have diverted us from الصلوة الوسطى, the prayer of the afternoon: ” (Bd:) or the prayer of daybreak; (also said to be on the authority of 'Alee, Mgh, Bd, K;) because it is between the prayers of the night and the day; (Bd;) for the saying of the prophet mentioned above does not contravene this and other assertions, since what is meant in the trad. is not what is meant in the Kur: (K:) or, (M, K,) accord. to Abu-l-Hasan, (M,) the prayer of Friday; (M, K;) because it is the most excellent of the prayers; (M;) and he who says otherwise errs, unless he trace up the assertion to the prophet: (M, K:) these three opinions are of the strongest authority; (B;) and the first is that which commonly obtains: (Mgh:) or the prayer of noon; (Mgh, Bd, Msb, K;) because it is in the middle of the day: (Bd:) or the prayer of Friday on the day thereof; but on other days the prayer of noon: (K, and also said to be on the authority of 'Alec:) or the prayer of sunset: (Mgh, Bd, K:) or the prayer of nightfall: (Bd, K:) or [the night-prayer called] الوِتْر: (K:) or the prayer of the breaking of the fast: (K:) or the prayer of sacrifices: (K:) or the prayer of the period called the ضُحَى: (K:) or the prayer of the congregation: (K:) or the prayer of fear: (K:) or the prayers of nightfall and daybreak together: (K, and said to be on the authorities of 'Omar and 'Othmán:) or the prayers of daybreak and the afternoon together: (K:) or any of the five prayers; because before it are two prayers and after it are two prayers: (K:) or all the divinely-appointed prayers: (K:) or certain prayers not particularized: (K:) or prayer of middling length, between long and short. (K.) Hence also, شَىْءٌ وَسَطٌ A middling thing; a thing of middle sort or kind; (Msb;) between good and bad; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ أَوْسَطُ: (Msb:) and in like manner it is applied to a male slave, and a female slave, (Msb,) and two male slaves, and two sheep or goats. (Mgh.) And مَا تُطْعِمُونَ ↓ مِنْ أَوْسَطِ

أَهْلِيكُمْ, in the Kur, [v. 91,] Of the middle sort of that which ye give for food to your families, (Mgh, Msb,) between what is prodigal and what is niggardly. (Mgh.) And ↓ النَّمَطُ الأَوْسَطُ The middle class of men: occurring in a saying of 'Alee, cited in full in art. غط. (M.) And عَلِّمْنِى

↓ دِينًا وَسُوطا Teach thou to me a religion of the middle sort: occurring in a saying of an Arab of the desert to El-Hasan, cited in full voce فَرَطَ. (M, TA.) And جَعَلْنَاكُمْ أَمَّةً وَسَطًا, in the Kur, [ii. 137,] (S, Mgh, Msb,) [We have made you to be a nation] conforming, or conformable, to the just mean; just; equitable: (Zj, S, IB, Bd, K:) or good. (Zj, Bd, Msb, K.) And مَرْعًى

وَسَطٌ Choice pasturage. (M.) And رَجُلٌ وَسَطٌ A good man; as also ↓ وَسِيطٌ: (M:) or a man having good grounds of pretension to respect. (TA.) And فِى قَوْمِهِ ↓ فُلَانٌ وَسِيطٌ, (S, K *,) or بَيْنَهُمْ, (as in some copies of the K,) Such a one is the best of his people (↓ أَوْسَطُهُمْ) in race, and the highest of them in station. (S, K.) and الدَّارِ وَالحَسَبِ ↓ فُلَانٌ وَسِيطُ [Such a one is of good quality, or of the best quality, in respect of tribe, and of grounds of pretension to honour]. (Lth.) And هُوَ مِنْ وَسَطِ قَوْمِهِ, and ↓ من أَوْسَطِهِمْ, He is of the best of his people. (Msb.) And in like manner, هُوَ مِنْ وَسَطِ الشَّىْءِ, and ↓ من أَوْسَطِهِ, It is of the best of the thing. (Msb.) And قَالَ

↓ أَوْسَطُهُمْ in the Kur, lxviii. 28, The best of them said: (Jel:) or the most rightly directed, of them, to the truth: (Msb:) or it means ↓ أَوْسَطُهُمْ رَأْيًا [the most remote, of them, from either extreme, in judgment]; or سِنًّا [in age]. (Bd.) وَسُوطٌ: see وَسَطٌ, as an epithet, in two places.

وَسِيطٌ: see وَسَطٌ, as an epithet, in five places. b2: A mediator, or an intercessor, for the purpose of accommodation, (O, K,) between people, (O,) or between two persons engaged in mutual altercation or litigation. (K.) وَسَاطَةٌ [originally an inf. n.: (see 1:) b2: and hence, as a subst., Mediation, or intercession]. (S, K: see 5.) b3: وَسَاطَةُ الدَّنَانِيرِ The best of deenárs. (TA.) وَسِيطَةٌ A mean, or means: pl. وَسَائِطُ.]

وَاسِطٌ: see وَسَطٌ, as a subst., and also as an epithet. b2: وَاسِطُ الكُورِ, (Lth, S, K,) or الرَّحْلِ, (ISh, Az, M,) and ↓ وَاسِطَتُهُ, (Lth, M, K,) and ↓ مَوْسِطَتُهُ, (Lh, M, [or perhaps ↓ مُوسِطَتُهُ, corresponding to ↓ مُؤْخِرَتُهُ,]) The fore-part of the camel's saddle: (S, K:) accord. to Lth, (Az, TA,) the part, of the camel's saddle, which is between the تَادِمَة and the آخِرَة; (Az, M, L;) but this is a mistake; (Az, L;) for the واسط of the camel's saddle is one of the شَرْخَانِ, (ISh, Az, L,) which are its two extremities, [or upright pieces of wood,] like the قَرَبُوسُانِ of the horse's saddle, (Az, L,) between which the rider sits; (ISh, Az, L;) it is the extremity which is next to the head of the camel; (Az, L;) the tall forepart next to the breast of the rider, (ISh, Az, L,) against which the breast of the rider sometimes strikes; (TA, in art. نحز;) the آخِرةَ being the extremity which is next to the tail of the camel; (Az, L;) the hinder part of the saddle, which is its tall and broad piece of wood that is against (تُحَاذِى) the head of the rider: (ISh, Az, L:) the former of these is not called واسط as being a middle part between the آخرة and the قادمة, as Lth says; nor has the camel's saddle any [part called] قادمة. (Az, L.) b3: الوَاسِطُ also signifies The piece of wood that is in the middle, between the two pieces called the عِضَادَتَانِ, in the yoke that is upon the neck of a bull which draws a cart or the like.

(L.) b2: [In modern Arabic, A means of doing a thing. You say, بِوَاسِطَةِ كَذَا By means of such a thing. b3: Also, An intermediary, interposer, or agent between parties; a go-between.] b4: See also وَاسِطٌ. b5: هُوَ فِى

[And هٰذَا مَا يَظْهَرُ لِى (assumed tropical:) This is what appears to me to be the case, or to be the right way or course; or this is my opinion.] ظَهَرَ الحَمْلُ, inf. n. as above, means Pregnancy became apparent, or manifest: it is said that this is not the case in less than three months.

A2: ظَهَرَهُ He mounted it; went, or got, upon it, or upon the top of it; (S, A, * Mgh, O, Msb, K;) as also ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ; (O;) namely, a house, (S,) or a house-top, (A, Mgh, O,) and a mountain, (A,) and a wall; (O, Msb;) properly, he became upon its back: (Mgh:) and [in like manner] one says, فُلَانٌ نَجْدًا ↓ ظَهَّرَ, inf. n. تَظْهِيرٌ, Such a one mounted, or went up, upon the high region (ظَهْر) of Nejd. (O.) b2: Hence, (Mgh, Msb,) ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K) and بِهِ, (K,) inf. n. ظُهُورٌ (Bd in xxiv. 31) and ظَهْرٌ also, (Ham p. 301,) He overcame, conquered, subdued, overpowered, or mastered, him; gained the mastery or victory, or prevailed, over him; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) namely, his enemy; (Msb;) and in like manner, [he conquered, won, achieved, or attained, it, i. e.] a thing. (O, TA.) [The saying فُلَانٌ لَا يَظْهَرُ عَلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ is expl. in the L and TA by the words اى لا يَسْلَم, and said to be tropical: but Ibr D thinks that the correct reading is لا يُسَلِّمُ, from التَّسْلِيمُ; and that it is said of one who will not give up, or resign, what is in his hand; so that the meaning is, (tropical:) Such a one is a person whom no one will overcome in respect of that which he holds in his possession.] b3: And [hence also] ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ, (Msb, TA,) inf. n. ظُهُورٌ, (TA,) He knew, became acquainted with, or got knowledge of, him, or it. (Msb, TA.) So in the Kur xxiv. 31, وَالطِّفْلُ الَّذِينَ لَمْ يَظْهَرُوا عَلَى عَوْرَاتِ النِّسَآءِ [And the young children] who have not attained knowledge of the عورات, (Bd, Jel,) meaning [pudenda, or] parts between the navel and the knee, (Jel,) of women, by reason of their want of discrimination: (Bd:) or (tropical:) who have not attained to the generative faculty; (O, Bd, * TA;) from الظُّهُورُ in the sense of الغَلَبَةُ. (Bd.) So too in the Kur [xviii. 19], إِنْ يَظْهَرُوا عَلَيْكُمْ If they get knowledge of you. (O, TA.) b4: And [hence] ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ, (Fr, A, O, TA,) and ↓ استظهرهُ, (S, A, O, K,) (tropical:) He knew it, or learned it, by heart; namely, the Kur-án; (A, O, TA;) and he recited it by heart: (A, * TA; and so in the S and O in explanation of the latter:) or [simply] he recited it by heart; namely, the Kur-án; as also ↓ اظهرهُ: (O, K, TA:) in the copies of the K we find أَظْهَرْتُ عَلَى القُرْآنِ and أَظْهَرْتُهُ; but the former is a mistake for ظَهَرْتُ, aor. ـَ (TA.) A3: For another signification of ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهِ, see 3.

A4: ظَهَرَ بِحَاجَتِى, (S, A, K,) aor. ـَ (TA,) inf. n. ظَهْرٌ; (TK;) and ↓ ظهّرها, (K, TA,) in some copies of the K ظَهَرَهَا; (TA;) and ↓ اظهرها, (K,) inf. n. إِظْهَارٌ; (TA;) and ↓ اِظَّهَرَهَا, (K,) of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ; (TA;) (tropical:) He held the object of my want in little, or light, estimation, or in contempt; (S, A;) [lit.] he put it behind [his] back; (S, K;) as though he put it away, [out of his sight,] and paid no regard to it. (S, TA.) One says also, يَظْهَرُونَ بِهِمْ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتُونَ

إِلَى أَرْحَامِهِمْ [They hold them in contempt, and do not pay any regard to their ties of relationship]. (S.) b2: See also 10, in three places.

A5: ظَهَرَهُ, (O, K,) aor. ـَ inf. n. ظَهْرٌ, (K,) He struck, or smote, (TA,) or hit, or hurt, (O, K,) his back. (O, K, TA.) A6: ظَهِرَ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. ظَهَرٌ, (O, K,) He (a man, S, O) had a complaint of his back. (S, O, K.) A7: ظَهُرَ, (JK, O, L,) or ظَهَرَ, (K, [but this is app. a mistranscription,]) inf. n. ظَهَارَةٌ, (S, O, L, K,) said of a camel, (JK, S, O,) He was, or became, strong (JK, S, O, L, K) in the back. (L, K.) 2 ظَهَّرَ see 1, near the middle: b2: and again, in the last quarter: b3: and see also 3. b4: ظهّر الثَّوْبَ [and ↓ اظهرهُ, contr. of بطّنهُ and ابطنهُ,] He faced the garment, or piece of cloth; put a facing, or an outer covering, (ظِهَارَة,) to it. (TA.) A2: See also 4, last sentence.3 ظاهرهُ, (A,) inf. n. مُظَاهَرَةٌ, (S, O, Msb,) He aided, or assisted, him; (S, A, O, Msb;) as also عَلَيْهِ ↓ ظَهَرَ. (Th, K.) And ظاهر عَلَيْهِ He aided, or assisted, against him. (TA.) b2: ظاهر بِهِ: see 10. b3: ظاهر بَيْنَهُمَا, (K,) i. e. (TA) بَيْنَ ثَوْبَيْنِ, (S, A, Mgh, TA,) and دِرْعَيْنِ, (A, Mgh, TA,) and نَعْلَيْنِ, (TA,) i. q. طَارَقَ بَيْنَهُمَا, (S, TA,) or طَابَقَ, (A, K, TA,) i. e. (TA) He put them on, or attired himself with them, [namely, two garments, and two coats of mail, and two sandals or soles, or rather, when relating to two soles, he sewed them together,] one over, or outside, the other: (Mgh, TA:) app. from تَظَاهُرٌ in the sense of “ mutual aiding or assisting. ” (IAth.) The phrase ظاهر بِدِرْعَيْنِ requires consideration; and the ب in it should be regarded as meant to denote conjunction; not as a part of the necessary complement of the verb. (Mgh.) ظاهر الدِّرْعَ is said to signify لَأَمَ بَعْضَهَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ [app. meaning He folded over and fastened one part of the coat of mail upon another]. (TA.) And ظاهر عَلَيْهِ جِلَالًا means He threw upon him (i. e. a horse) housings or coverings [one over another]. (TA in art. حنذ.) A2: ظاهر مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ, (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. ظِهَارٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and مُظَاهَرَةٌ; (JK, TA;) and مِنْهَا ↓ تظاهر, (A, Mgh, O, TA,) and ↓ اِظَّاهَرَ; (Mgh;) and منها ↓ تظهّر, (S, Msb, K,) and ↓ اِظَّهَّرَ; (O, TA;) and منها ↓ ظهّر, (S, O, K,) inf. n. تَظْهِيرٌ; (S;) signify the same; (O;) He said to his wife أَنْتِ عَلَىَّ كَظَهْرِ أُمِّى

[Thou art to me like the back of my mother]; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) [as though he said رُكُوبُكِ حَرَامٌ عَلَىَّ;] meaning رُكُوبُكِ لِلنِّكَاحِ حَرَامٌ عَلَىَّ كَرُكُوبِ أُمِّى لِلنِّكَاحِ; the back being specified in preference to the بَطْن or فَخِذ or فَرْج because the woman is likened to a beast that is ridden, and the act of نِكَاح to that of رُكُوب: the phrase being a form of divorce used by the Arabs in the Time of Ignorance. (Msb, * TA.) In the Kur lviii. 2 [and 4], some read ↓ يَظَّهَّرُونَ; some

↓ يَظَّاهَرُونَ; and 'Ásim read يُظَاهِرُونَ. (Bd.) The verb is made trans. by means of مِن because the man who uttered this sentence estranged himself from his wife. (IAth.) 4 اظهرهُ He made it apparent, overt, open, perceptible or perceived, manifest, plain, or evident; he showed, exhibited, manifested, displayed, discovered, revealed, or evinced, it; or put it forth: (S, O, K:) [it is also used in relation to a saying, and an action, and the like, as meaning it showed, &c., as above, or it bespoke, it:] and Mtr relates his having heard from one worthy of reliance of the people of Baghdád, that they say ↓ تظاهرتُ بِهِ in the place of أَظْهَرْتُهُ, and scarcely ever employ اظهر in its usual sense. (Har p. 85.) [Hence, اظهر التَّضْعِيفَ He made the doubling of a letter distinct; as in لَحِحَتْ; which, accord. to a general rule, should be لَحَّتْ: opposed to أَدْغَمَ. And اظهر لَهُ كَذَا He showed, &c., to him such a thing: and he made a show of, professed, pretended, or feigned, to him such a thing: as, for instance, love.] b2: أَظْهَرْتُ بِفُلَانٍ means أَعْلَيْتُ بِهِ [a phrase which I have not found except in this instance, app. I elevated, or exalted, such a one: like أَعْلَيْتُهُ, which has this meaning]: (S, IKtt, L, TA:) or أَعْلَنْتُ بِهِ [app. meaning I made such a one to be, or become, publicly known]: (So in the O:) [but the former explanation seems to be regarded by SM as the right; for he remarks that,] accord. to all the copies of the K, the explanation is أَعْلَنَ بِهِ, and refers to ظَهَرَ بِفُلَانٍ

[instead of أَظْهَرَ]; so that what its author says in this case differs in two points of view from what is found in the “ Kitáb el-Abniyeh ” of IKtt, in which the ى in أَعْلَيْتُ has been marked as correct, and in the L [as well as in the S]. (TA.) A2: اظهرهُ اللّٰهُ عَلَى عَدُوِّهِ means God made him to overcome, conquer, subdue, overpower, master, gain the victory over, or prevail over, his enemy. (S, A, O, TA.) b2: And [hence] اظهرهُ عَلَيْهِ He (God) made him to know it, or become acquainted with it: you say, أَظْهَرَنِى اللّٰهُ عَلَى مَا سُرِقَ مِنِّى God made me to know [or discover] what had been stolen from me. (TA.) A3: See also 1, last quarter, in two places.

A4: And see 2.

A5: اظهر signifies also He entered upon the time called the ظَهِيرَة: (A, Msb, K:) or the time called the ظُهْر. (Msb.) And He went, or journeyed, in the time called the ظَهِيرَة; as also ↓ ظهّر, (K,) inf. n. تَظْهِيرٌ: (TA:) or the time called the ظُهْر. (S, O.) 5 تظهّر and اِظَّهَّرَ: see 3, latter half, in three places.6 تَظَاْهَرَ see 1, first sentence: b2: and see also 4, first sentence. b3: تظاهروا They aided, or assisted, one another. (S, O, * K.) And تظاهروا عَلَى فُلَانٍ

They leagued together, and aided one another, against such a one. (Ibn-Buzurj, TA in art. ضفر.) b4: Also They regarded, or treated, one another with enmity, or hostility; or severed themselves, one from another: (S, Msb, K:) as though they turned their backs, one upon another: (S:) or, because they who do so turn their backs, one upon another. (Msb.) Thus the verb has two contr. meanings. (K.) b5: تظاهر مِنِ امْرَأَتِهِ and اِظَّاهَرَ: see 3, latter half, in three places.8 اِظَّهَرَ: see 1, last quarter.10 استظهر بِهِ He sought aid, or assistance, in, or by means of, him, or it, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) عَلَيْهِ [against him, or it]; as also استظهرهُ. (TA.) [In the CK, after the explanation of استظهر به, is an omission, to be supplied by the insertion of وَقَرَأَهُ.] One says, استظهر بِالْغِنَى عَلَى النَّوَائِبِ [He sought aid in wealth against calamities, or afflictions]. (Msb.) And بِهِ ↓ ظاهر signifies the same as استظهر [in this sense or in another of the senses expl. in what follows]. (TA.) b2: and استظهرتُ بِالشَّىْءِ, and بِهِ ↓ ظَهَرْتُ, and ↓ ظَهَرْتُهُ, I put the thing behind my back for protection, or security. (Har p. 265.) b3: And استظهر He prepared for himself a camel, or two camels, or more, for future need: (T:) and استظهرهُ, and بِهِ ↓ ظَهَرَ, He prepared him, namely, a camel, for future need: (K:) and استظهر بِبَعِيرَيْنِ ظِهْرِيَّيْنِ He prepared for himself two camels for future need. (T. [See ظِهْرِىٌّ.]) b4: Hence, (T,) استظهر signifies also He used precaution (T, Msb) with respect to anything: (T:) he secured himself, (اِسْتَوْثَقَ,) by using precaution; as, for instance, a woman does by remaining three days, before she performs the ablution termed غُسْل, and prays, after the usual period of the menses. (T, L.) One says, يُسْتَحَبُّ الاِسْتِظْهَارُ بِغَسْلَةٍ ثَانِيَةٍ

وَثَالِثَةٍ The using precaution by a second and a third washing, to make sure of being pure, is approved. (Er-Ráfi'ee, Msb.) And استظهرتُ فِى طَلَبِ الشَّىْءِ I adopted the most fit, or proper, way, and used precaution, in seeking to attain the thing. (Msb.) b5: See also 1, in the middle of the latter half.

ظَهْرٌ The back; contr. of بَطْنٌ: (S, A, O, Msb, K:) in a man, from the hinder part of the كَاهِل [or base of the neck] to the nearest part of the buttocks, where it terminates: (TA:) in a camel, the part containing six vertebræ on the right and left of which are [two portions of flesh and sinew called the] مَتْنَانِ: (AHeyth, T, O:) of the masc. gender: (Lh, A, K:) pl. [of pauc.] أَظْهُرٌ, and [of mult.] ظُهُورٌ and ظُهْرَانٌ. (Msb, K.) b2: رَجُلٌ خَفِيفُ الظَّهْرِ (tropical:) A man having a small household to maintain: and ثَقِيلُ الظَّهْرِ (tropical:) having a large household to maintain. (K, * TA.) b3: أَنْت عَلَىَّ كَظَهْرِ

أُمِّى Thou art to me like the back of my mother: said by a man to his wife. (S, Mgh, Msb, K.) [This has been expl. above: see 3.] b4: عَدَا فِى

ظَهْرِهِ (tropical:) He stole what was behind him: (A:) [or he acted wrongfully in respect of what was behind him: for] لِصٌّ عَادِى ظَهْرٍ is expl. by the words عَدَا فِى ظَهْرٍ فَسَرَقَهُ [so that it app. means (tropical:) A thief who has acted wrongfully in respect of what was behind one, and stolen it]. (O, K.) b5: أَقْرَانُ الظَّهْرِ (S, O, K) and الظُّهُورِ (O, TA) Adversaries who come to one from behind his back, in war, or fight. (S, O, K, * TA.) In the copies of the K, يُحِبُّونَكَ is erroneously put for يَجِيؤُونَكَ. (TA.) You say also, فُلَانٌ قِرْنُ الظَّهْرِ Such a one is an adversary who comes to one from behind, unknown. (IAar, As.) b6: قَتَلَهُ ظَهْرًا He slew him unexpectedly; he assassinated him; syn. غِيلَةٌ. (IAar, TA.) b7: جَعَلَنِى بِظَهْرٍ (tropical:) He cast me off. (TA.) And جَعَلتُ حَاجَتَهُ بِظَهْرٍ (tropical:) I cast his want behind my back: (AO, K:) and ↓ جَعَلَهَا ظِهْرِيَّةً signifies the same: (S:) and ↓ اِتَّخَذَهَا ظِهْرِيًّا, (K,) and ↓ ظِهْرِيَّةً: (TA:) or the former of the last two phrases signifies he held it in contempt; as though ظهريّا were an irreg. rel. n. from ظَهْرٌ: (TA:) or ↓ اِتَّخَذَهُ ظِهْرِيًّا signifies he neglected, or forgot, (S, O, * Msb,) him, as in the Kur xi. 94, (S, O,) or it, namely, what was said. (Msb.) And لَا تَجْعَلْ حَاجَتِى

بِظَهْرٍ (tropical:) Forget not thou, or neglect not, my want: (S:) and ↓ جَعَلَهُ ظِهْرِيًّا signifies he forgot it; as well as جعله بِظَهْرٍ. (A.) And جَعَلْتُ هٰذَا الأَمْرَ بِظَهْرٍ, and رَمَيْتُهُ بِظَهْرٍ, (tropical:) I cared not for this thing. (Th, O.) b8: فُلَانٌ مِنْ وَلَدِ الظَّهْرِ (assumed tropical:) Such a one is of those who do not belong to us: or of those to whom no regard is paid: (TA:) or of those who are held in contempt, and to whose ties of relationship no regard is paid. (S, TA.) b9: هُوَ ابْنُ عَمِّهِ ظَهْرًا (tropical:) [He is his cousin on the father's side,] distantly related: contr. of دِنْيًا [and لَحًّا]. (As, A, O, TA.) b10: رَجَعَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ [He receded, retired, or retreated]. (K in art. ثبجر.) b11: هُوَ نَازِلٌ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَيْهِمْ, and ↓ بين ظَهْرَانَيْهِمْ, (S, A, O, Msb, K, *) in which latter the ا and ن are said by some to be added for corroboration, (Msb,) and for which one should not say ظَهْرَانِيهِمْ, (IF, S, O, Msb, K,) and بين أَظْهُرِهِمْ, (Msb, K,) (tropical:) He is making his abode in the midst of them; in the main body of them: (K, TA:) originally meaning he is making his abode among them for the purpose of seeking aid of them and staying himself upon them: as though it meant that the back of one of them was before him, and that of another behind him, so that he was defended in either direction: afterwards, by reason of frequency of usage, it came to be employed to signify abiding among a people absolutely. (IAth, Msb.) You say also هُوَ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَيْهِ, and ↓ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَيْهِ, meaning It (anything) is in the midst, or main part, of it, namely, another thing. (TA.) b12: لَقِيتُهُ بَيْنَ الظَّهْرَيْنِ, and ↓ بَيْنَ الظَّهْرَانَيْنِ, (S, O, Msb, K,) (tropical:) I met him during the day, (Msb,) or during the two days, (S, O, K,) or during the three days, (K,) or the days: (S, O, Msb:) from the next preceding phrase. (TA.) And أَتَيْتُهُ مَرَّةً بَيْنَ الظَّهَرْينِ (tropical:) I came to him one day: or, accord. to Aboo-Fak'as, on a day between two years. (Fr.) And اللَّيْلِ ↓ رَأَيْتُهُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَىِ (tropical:) I saw him between nightfall and daybreak. (TA.) and النَّهَارِ ↓ جِئْتُهُ بَيْنَ ظَهْرَانَىِ (tropical:) [I came to him between the beginning and end of the day]. (A.) b13: تَقَلَّبَ ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ (assumed tropical:) It turned over and over, or upside down, (lit. back for belly,) as a serpent does upon ground heated by the sun. (S and TA in art. قلب.) [Hence,] قَلَبْتُ الأَرْضَ ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ (tropical:) [I turned the earth over, upside-down]. (A.) And [hence,] قَلَّبَ أَمْرَهُ ظَهْرًا لِبَطْنٍ, (O, * TA,) and ظَهْرَهُ لِبَطْنٍ, and ظَهْرَهُ لِبَطْنِهِ, and ظَهْرَهُ لِلْبَطْنِ, which last form is preferred by El-Farezdak to the second, because [as in the third form] the second of the two words is determinate like the first word, (tropical:) He meditated, or managed, the affair with forecast, and well. (O, * TA.) b14: The Arabs used to say, هٰذَا ظَهْرُ السَّمَآءِ and هذا بَطْنُ السَّمَآءِ, both meaning (tropical:) This is the apparent, visible, part of the sky. (Fr, Az.) And the like is said of the side of a wall, which is its بَطْن to a person on the same side, and its ظَهْر to one on the other side. (Az.) b15: مَا نَزَلَ مِنَ القُرْآنِ آيَةٌ إِلَّا لَهَا ظَهْرٌ وَبَطْنٌ, [part of] a saying of Mohammad, [of which see the rest voce مُطَّلَعٌ,] means (assumed tropical:) Not a verse of the Kur-án has come down but it has a verbal expression and an interpretation: (K, * TA:) or a verbal expression and a meaning: or that which has an apparent and a known [or an exoteric] interpretation and that which has an intrinsic [or esoteric] interpretation: (TA:) or narration (K, TA) and admonition: (TA:) or [it is to be read and to be understood and taught; for] by the ظهر is meant the reading; and by the بطن, the understanding and teaching. (TA.) [See also بَطْنٌ.] b16: ظَهْرٌ signifies also (tropical:) Camels on which people ride, and which carry goods; (S, * A, * O, K, * TA;) camels that carry burdens upon their backs in journeying: (TA:) [or] a beast: or a camel for riding: (Mgh:) pl. ظُهْرَانٌ. (TA.) It is said in a trad. of 'Arfajeh, فَتَنَاوَلَ السَّيْفَ مِنَ الظَّهْرِ And he reached, or took in his hand, the sword from the camels for carrying burdens and for riding: and in another, أَتَأْذَنُ لَنَا فِى نَحْرِ ظَهْرِنَا Dost thou permit us to slaughter our camels which we ride? (TA.) And one says also, هُوَ عَلَى ظَهْرٍ (tropical:) He is determined upon travel: (K:) as though he had already mounted a beast for that purpose. (TA.) b17: [Hence, app.,] (assumed tropical:) Property consisting of camels and sheep or goats: (TA:) or much property. (K, TA.) b18: (assumed tropical:) The short side [or lateral half] of a feather: (S, O, K:) pl. ظُهْرَانٌ: (S, M, K, TA, &c.:) opposed to بَطْنٌ, sing. of بُطْنَانٌ, (TA,) which latter signifies the “ long sides: ” (S, TA:) and ↓ ظُهَارٌ signifies the same as ظَهْرٌ, (K,) or the same as ظُهْرَانٌ, being an irregular pl.; and this is meant by the saying الظُّهَارُ بِالضَّمِ الجَمَاعَةُ, mentioned in a later place in the K [in such a manner as to have led to the supposition that ظُهَارٌ is also syn. with جَمَاعَةٌ]: (TA:) AO says that among the feathers of arrows are the ظُهَار, which are those that are put [upon an arrow] of the ظَهْر [or outer side] of the عَسِيب [app. here meaning the shaft] of the feather; (S, TA;) i. e., the shorter side, which is the best kind of feather; as also ظُهْرَان: sing. ظَهْرٌ: (TA:) ISd says that the ظُهْرَان are those parts of the feathers of the wing that are exposed to the sun and rain: (TA:) Lth says that the ظُهَار are those parts of the feathers of the wing that are apparent. (O, TA.) One says, رِشْ سَهْمَكَ بِظُهْرَانٍ وَلَا تَرِشْهُ بِبُطْنَانٍ

[Feather thine arrow with short sides of feathers, and feather it not with long sides of feathers]. (S, TA.) [De Sacy supposes that ظُهُورٌ and بُطُونٌ are also pls. of ظَهْرٌ and بَطْنٌ thus used: (see his “ Chrest. Arabe,” sec. ed., tome ii., p.

374:) but his reasons do not appear to me to be conclusive.] ↓ ظُهَارٌ and ظُهْرَانٌ are also used as epithets: you say, رِيشٌ ظُهَارٌ and رِيشٌ ظُهْرَانٌ. (TA.) b19: [ظَهْرُ الكَفِّ and ↓ ظَاهِرُهَا mean (assumed tropical:) The back of the hand. And in like manner, ظَهْرُ القَدَمِ and ↓ ظَاهِرُهَا mean (assumed tropical:) The upper, or convex, side, or back, of the human foot, corresponding to the back of the hand, including the instep: opposed to بَطْن and بَاطِن. And ظَهْرُ اللِّسَانِ means (assumed tropical:) The upper surface of the tongue.] b20: And ظَهْرٌ also signifies (tropical:) A way by land. (S, M, O, Msb, K.) This expression is used when there is a way by land and a way by sea. (M.) You say, سَارُوا فِى طَرِيقِ الظَّهْرِ (tropical:) They journeyed by land. (A.) b21: And (assumed tropical:) An elevated tract of land or ground; as also ↓ ظَاهِرةٌ: (A:) or rugged and elevated land or ground; (JK, K;) as also ↓ ظَاهِرَةٌ: (JK:) opposed to بَطْنٌ, which signifies “ soft and plain and fine and low land or ground: ” (TA:) and ↓ ظَوَاهِرُ [pl. of. ظَاهِرَةٌ] signifies (assumed tropical:) elevated tracts of land or ground: (S, K:) you say, هَاجَتْ ظَوَاهِرُ الأَرْضِ, meaning, (assumed tropical:) the herbs, or leguminous plants, of the elevated tracts of land, or ground, dried up: (As, S, L:) and ↓ ظَاهِرٌ signifies (assumed tropical:) the higher, or highest, part of a mountain; (ISh, L, TA;) whether its exterior be plain or not: (TA:) and ↓ ظَاهِرَةٌ, the same, of anything: (L:) when you have ascended upon the ظَهْر of a mountain, you are upon its ظَاهِرَة. (TA.) b22: سَالَ وَادِيهِمْ ظَهْرًا means (assumed tropical:) Their valley flowed with the rain of their own land: opposed to دُرْءًا, meaning, “from other rain: ” (IAar, O, K: *) or the former signifies their valley flowed with its own rain: and the latter, “with other than its own rain: ” (TA:) and some say ↓ ظُهْرًا, which Az thinks the better form. (O, TA.) b23: [Hence, probably,] أَصَبْتُ مِنْهُ مَطَرَ ظَهْرٍ (assumed tropical:) I obtained from him, or it, much good. (Sgh, O, K.) b24: And another signification of ظَهْرٌ is What is absent, or hidden, or concealed, from one. (O, K.) b25: It is sometimes prefixed to another noun to give plainness and force to the expression; as in ظَهْرُ الغَيْبِ and ظَهْرُ القَلْبِ, meaning نَفْسُ الغَيْبِ and نَفْسُ القَلْبِ: (Msb:) or it is redundant in these instances. (Mgh.) Lebeed says, describing a [wild] cow going about after a beast of prey that had eaten her young one, وَتَسَمَّعَتْ رِزَّ الأَنِيسِ فَرَاعَهَا عَنْ ظَهْرِ غَيْبٍ وَالأَنِيسُ سَقَامُهَا [And she heard the sound of man, and it frightened her, from a place that concealed what was in it; for man is her malady; i. e., a cause of pain and trouble and death to her]: (TA:) meaning, she heard the sound of the hunters, &c. (TA in art. غيب.) And you say, تَنَاوَلَهُ بِظَهْرِ الغَيْبِ بِمَا يَسُوؤُهُ He carped at him behind the back, or in absence, by saying what would grieve him. (TA in art. غيب.)

See also غَيْبٌ.] And قَرَأَهُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ القَلْبِ (tropical:) He recited it by heart, or memory; without book: (L, K: [in the latter, مِنْ is put in the place of عَنْ; but the right reading is that in the L: and in the CK is an omission here, to be supplied by the insertion of وَقَرَأَهُ:]) and ↓ قرأه ظَاهِرًا and قرأه عَلَى

ظَهْرِ لِسَانِهِ [signify the same]. (K.) And حَمَلَ القُرْآنَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ لِسَانِهِ like حَفِظَهُ عَلَى ظَهْرِ قَلْبِهِ (tropical:) [He knew the Kur-án by heart].

And أَعْطَاهُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ يَدٍ (tropical:) He gave him originally; without compensation. (O, * K; but in some copies of the K we find مِنْ in the place of عَنْ.) It is said [in a trad.], أَفْضَلُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى (tropical:) The most excellent of alms is that which is [derived] from competence; ظهر: (Msb:) or simply عَنْ غِنًى, the word ظهر being here redundant: (Mgh:) or from manifest competence upon which one relies, and in which he seeks aid against calamities, or afflictions: or from what remains after fight: (Msb:) or from superfluous property.

See also ظَهِيرَةٌ.] صَلَاةُ الظُّهْرِ means The prayer [i. e. the divinely-ordained prayer] of midday, or noon: (IAth, TA:) or of the time after the declining of the sun. (S, O.) In the phrases أَبْرِدُوا بِالظُّهْرِ [Defer ye the prayer of midday until the cooler time of day] and صَلَّى الظُّهْرَ [He performed the prayer of midday], the prefixed noun (صَلَاة) is suppressed.

retains its place in the sing. [inseparably; there being no such word as ظِهْر: but if it be a rel. n., this pl. is irreg., like مَهَارِىٌّ]. (S, O, K.) b2: See ظَهْرٌ, first quarter, in five places, for examples of ظِهْرِىٌّ and ظِهْرِيَّةٌ used tropically.

A2: Also An aider, or assistant; (S, A, O, Msb, K;) and so ↓ ظِهْرَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ ظُهْرَةٌ: (K:) [in one place, in the K, ظِهْرَةٌ is expl. by عَوْن; but by this is meant, as will be seen below, the same as is meant by مُعِين, by which all the three words are expl. in another place in the K, as well as in the S &c.:] and aiders, or assistants; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ ظِهْرَةٌ and ↓ ظُهْرَةٌ and ↓ ظَهْرٌ: (TA:) the pl. of ظَهِيرٌ is ظُهَرَآءُ. (O.) It is said in the Kur [xxv. 57], وَكَانَ الكَافِرُ عَلَى رَبِّهِ ظَهِيرًا And the unbeliever is an aider of the enemies of God [against his Lord]. (Ibn-'Arafeh.)

(Msb.) It is said in the Kur [v. 28], فَافْرُقْ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَ الْقَوْمِ الفَاسِقِينَ [Therefore decide Thou, or make Thou a distinction, between us and the unrighteous people]: accord. to one reading, فَافْرِقْ.

(TA.) It is also said that الفَرْقُ is for rectification; and ↓ التَّفْرِيقُ, for vitiation: and IJ says that إِنَّ الَّذِينَ فَرَّقُوا ↓ دِيْنَهُمْ CCC, in the Kur [vi. 160, and the like occurs in xxx. 31], means Verily those who have divided their religion into sundry parts, and dismembered it, and have disagreed respecting it among themselves: but that some read فَرَقُوا دِيْنَهُمْ, without teshdeed, meaning, have severed their religion from the other religions [app. by taking it in part, or parts, therefrom]; or this, he says, may mean the same as the former reading, for sometimes فَعَلَ has the same meaning as فَعَّلَ. (TA.) IJ also says that فَرَقَ لَهُ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ signifies He made the thing distinct, or plain, to him. (TA.) b2: فَرَقَ الشَّعْرَ بِالمُشْطِ, aor. ـُ and فَرِقَ, inf. n. فَرْقٌ, He separated his hair with the comb: and فَرَّقَ ↓ رَأْسَهُ بِالمُشْطِ , inf. n. تَفْرِيقٌ, He separated the hair of his head with the comb. (TA.) [and it is implied in a trad. cited in the O and TA that فَرَقَهُ signifies the same as the latter of the two phrases in the next preceding sentence.]

A2: فَرَقَ لَهُ الطَّرِيقُ, (S, O, K,) inf. n. فُرُوقٌ, (K,) The road presented itself to him divided into two roads: (S, O, K, TA:) or [it means] an affair presented itself, or occurred, to him, and he knew the mode, or manner, thereof: (TA, as from the K: [but not in the CK nor in my MS. copy of the K:]) and hence, in a trad. of I'Ab, فَرَقَ لِى رَأْىٌ An idea, or opinion, appeared [or occurred] to me: (TA:) [or] one says, فَرَقَ لِى هٰذَا الأَمْرُ, inf. n. فُرُوقٌ, This affair became, or has become, distinct, apparent, or manifest, to me: and hence the saying, فَإِنْ لَمْ يُفْرُقْ لِلْإِمَامِ رَأْىٌ [And if an idea, or an opinion, appear not, or occur not, to the Imám]. (Mgh.) b2: فَرَقَتْ said of a she-camel, and of a she-ass, (S, O, K,) aor. ـُ (S, O,) inf. n. فُرُوقٌ, She, being taken with the pains of parturition, went away at random in the land. (S, O, K.) A3: فَرَقَ, (O, K,) aor. ـُ (K,) He voided dung; syn. ذَرَقَ [which is said of a bird, and sometimes of a man]. (O, K. [See also أَفْرَقَ.]) A4: And He possessed a فِرْق [q. v.] (O, K, TA) of sheep or goats: (O, TA:) accord. to the K, of date-stones with which to feed camels: but the former explanation is the right. (TA.) A5: فَرَقَهَا, (K,) inf. n. فَرْقٌ, (TA,) He fed her (i. e. a woman) with فَرِيقَة [q. v.]; as also ↓ افرقها, (K,) inf. n. إِفْرَاقٌ. (TA.)

A7: فَرِقَ, (S, O, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. فَرَقٌ, (S, O, Msb,) He feared; or was, or became, in fear, afraid, or frightened. (S, O, Msb, K.) You say, فَرِقْتُ مِنْكَ [I feared thee, or was in fear of thee]: (S, O, Msb: *) but you should not say, فَرِقْتُكَ: (S, O:) Sb [however] mentions فَرِقَهُ, suppressing مِنْ. (TA.) And you say also, فَرِقَ عَلَيْهِ [He feared for him]. (TA.) A8: And فَرِقَ, aor. ـَ He entered into a wave, [which is termed فِرْقٌ,] and dived therein. (K.) A9: And the same verb accord. to the K, but accord. to Sgh [in the O] it seems, from the context to be فَرَقَ, (TA,) He drank (O, K) the measure called فَرَق, (O,) or with the فَرَق. (K, TA.) 2 فرّقهُ, inf. n. تَفْرِيقٌ and تَفْرِقَةٌ, (S, O, K,) He separated it [into several, or many, portions]; disunited it [i. e. a thing, or a collection of things]; or dispersed, or dissipated, it; or did so much [or greatly or widely]; syn. بَدَّدَهُ. (K.) And فرّق بَيْنَ الأَشْيَآءِ [He made, or caused, a separation &c., or much, or a wide, separation, &c., between the things]. (Mgh.) [And فِيهِمْ فرّقهُ and عَلَيْهِمْ He scattered, or distributed, it among them, and to them.] See 1, former half, in five places. It is said in a trad. of 'Omar, فَرِّقُوا عَنِ المَنِيَّةِ وَاجْعَلُوا الرَّأْسَ رَأْسَيْنِ, (Mgh, O, *) meaning Separate ye your cattle by way of preservation from death, [and make the one head two head,] by buying two animals with the price of one, that, when one dies, the second may remain. (Mgh, O.) and it is said in a trad. respecting the poor-rate, لَا يُفَرَّقُ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ وَلَا يُجْمَعُ بَيْنَ مُفْتَرِقٍ There shall be no separating what is put together, nor shall there be a putting together what is separate. (TA. [The reason is, that by either of these acts, in the case of cattle, the amount of the poor-rate may be diminished.]) يُفَرِّقُونَ بِهِ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَزَوْجِهِ [in the Kur ii. 96, meaning Whereby they might dissolve, break up, discompose, derange, disorganize, disorder, or unsettle, the state of union subsisting between the man and his wife, in respect of affairs and of the expression of opinion, or, briefly, whereby they might cause division and dissension between the man and his wife,] is from التَفْرِيقُ as meaning تَشْتِيتُ الشَّمْلِ وَالكَلِمَةِ. (El-Isbahánee, TA.) One says also, فرّق الأَمْرَ, meaning شَتَّتَهُ [i. e. He discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, the state of affairs]. (S in art. شت.) And فرّق عَلَيْنَا الكَلَامَ [lit. He scattered speech (app. meaning he jabbered) at us, or against us]. (K in art. بق: see R. Q. 1 in that art.) In the saying in the Kur [ii. 130 and iii.

78], لَا نُفَرِّقُ بَيْنَ أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ [We will not make a distinction between any of them], the verb is allowably made to relate to احد because this word [in negative phrases] imports a pl. meaning. (TA. [See p. 27, 3rd col.]) See, again, 1, near the middle.

A2: فرّقهُ, (O, TA,) inf. n. تَفْرِيقٌ, (O, K, TA,) also signifies He made him to fear, or be afraid; put him in fear; or frightened him: (O, K, * TA:) and مِنْهُ ↓ أَفْرَقْتُهُ I made him to fear, or be afraid of, him, or it: (Msb:) and Lh mentions الصَبِىَّ ↓ فَرَقْتُ as meaning I frightened the boy, or child; but ISd says, I think it to be فَرَّقْتُ. (TA.) 3 فارقهُ, inf. n. مُفَارِقَةٌ and فِرَاقٌ, (S, Msb, TA,) He separated himself from him, or it; or left, forsook, or abandoned, him, or it: or he forsook, or abandoned, him, being forsaken, or abandoned, by him: syn. بَايَنَهُ; (TA;) and قَاطَعَهُ, and فَارَزَهُ; (A in art. فرز;) and تَرَكَهُ. (Msb in art. ترك.) And فارق امْرَأَتَهُ He separated himself from his wife. (TA.) b2: فَارَقْتُ فُلَانًا مِنْ حِسَابِى عَلَى كَذَا وَكَذَا I released such a one from my reckoning with him on such and such terms agreed upon by both: and so صَادَرْتُهُ عَلَى كَذَا وَكَذَا. (TA.) And فُورِقَ عَلَى مَالٍ يُؤَدِّيهِ He (an agent) was released from being reckoned with on the condition of his paying certain property for which he became responsible. (TA in art. صدر.) A2: فَارَقَنِى فَفَرَقْتُهُ: see 1, last quarter.4 افرقوا إِبِلَهُمْ They left their camels in the place of pasture, and did not assist them in bringing forth, nor have them got with young. (IAar, O, K.) b2: And افرق غَنَمَهُ He made, or caused, his sheep, or goats, to stray; and neglected them, or caused them to become lost, or to perish. (TA.) b3: And افرق He lost a portion of his sheep or goats. (IKh, TA.) b4: And His sheep, or goats, became a فَرِيقَة [q. v.]. (IKh, TA.) A2: افرق He recovered; (Lth, As, Az, S, O, K;) or recovered, but not completely; (As, O, K;) to which IKh adds, quickly; (TA;) i. e., a sick person from (مِنْ) his sickness; (As, Az, S, O, K;) and one fevered from his fever; (As, S;) and one smitten with the plague: (Lth, TA:) or (K) it is not said except in the case of a disease that does not attack one more than once, as the small-pox, (O, K,) and the measles. (O.) b2: افرقت She (a camel) had a return of some of her milk. (O, K.) A3: افرق said of a man, and of a bird, and of a beast of prey, and of a fox, He voided dung, or thin dung. (Lh, TA. [See also 1, last quarter.]) b2: And افرقهُ He, or it, caused him to void dung; syn. أَذْرَقَهُ. (K. [But I do not find اذرق mentioned except as an intrans. v.]) See also فِرْقَةٌ, last sentence.

A4: افرقها: see 1, last quarter.

A5: أَفْرَقْتُهُ مِنْهُ: see 2, last sentence.5 تفرّق, inf. n. تَفَرَّقٌ (O, K) and تِفِرَّاقٌ, (K, TA,) with two kesrehs, but accord. to the “ Nawádir ” of Lh تَفْرِيقٌ, (TA,) [and in the CK تَفْراق,] It was, or became, separated, or disunited: or separated much, or greatly, or widely, or into several, or many, portions; or dispersed, or dissipated: contr. of تَجَمَّعَ: and ↓ افترق signifies the same: (K, TA:) and so does ↓ انفرق: (TA:) all are quasi-pass. of فَرَّقْتُهُ: (S, * TA:) [or rather the second and third have the former of the meanings mentioned above: and تفرّق has the latter of those meanings:] or ↓ اِفْتَرَقَا is said of two sayings, as quasi-pass. of فَرَقْتُ بَيْنَهُمَا: and تَفَرَّقَا, of two men, as quasi-pass. of فَرَّقْتُ بَيْنَهَمَا: (Mgh, * Msb, TA:) so says IAar: (Msb:) [but] one says also, افترق القَوْمُ [The party, or company of men, became separated; or they separated themselves:] (Msb:) and Esh-Sháfi'ee has used ↓ اِفْتَرَقَا as relating to two persons buying and selling; (Msb, TA;) and so have Ahmad [Ibn-Hambal] and Aboo-Haneefeh and Málik and others. (TA.) It is said in a trad., البَيَّعَانِ بِالخِيَارِ مَا يَتَفَرَّقَا i. e. [The buyer and seller have the option to annul their contract] as long as they have not become separated bodily; (Mgh, Msb;) originally, مَا لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقْ أَبْدَانُهُمَا; for this is the proper meaning. (Msb.) تَفَرَّقَتْ بِهِمُ الطُّرُقُ [properly The roads became separate with them,] means every one of them went one [separate] way. (TA.) [And one says, تفرّقت الأَغْصَانُ (S in art. شذب, &c.,) The branches were, or became, or grew out, apart, one from another; divaricated; diverged; forked; straggled; or spread widely and dispersedly. and تفرّق أَمْرُهُ His affair, or state of affairs, became discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, so that he considered what might be its issues, or results, saying at one time, I will do thus, and at another time, I will do thus: see أَجْمَعَ; and شَتَّ: and ↓ افترق signifies the same: see an ex. voce فَشَا, in art. فشو. And تفرّقت كَلِمَتُهُمْ (K voce شَالَ, in art. شول,) Their expression of opinion was, or became, discordant: and تفرّقت آرَاؤُهُمْ Their opinions were, or became, so.]6 تفارقوا They separated themselves, one from another; or left, forsook, or abandoned, one another. (TA.) 7 انفرق, of which مُنْفَرَقٌ may be an inf. n. [like اِنْفِرَاقٌ], as well as a n. of place, It was, or became, separated, or divided. (O, K.) See also 5.

[Hence,] انفرق الفَجْرُ i. q. اِنْفَلَقَ [The dawn broke]. (TA.) 8 افترق: see 5, first sentence, in three places: and also in the last sentence but one.

فَرْقٌ [is originally an inf. n.: but is often used as a simple subst. meaning A distinction, or difference, between two things. b2: Hence,] The line [or division] in the hair of the head: (K: [see also مَفْرَقٌ:]) or, as some say, the part, of the head, extending from the side of the forehead to the spiral curl upon the crown: an ex. occurs in a verse of Aboo-Dhu-eyb cited voce مَطْرَبٌ. (TA.) b3: [And app. A blaze on a horse's forehead.

(TA. [This is app. said in explanation of فُرْقَانِ ending a verse in which it means “ milkingvessels: ” but it is said in the S, and in one place in the TA, that it is in that instance pl. of فَرْقٌ or فَرَقٌ, q. v.]) فِرْقٌ A piece, or portion, that is split from a thing, or cleft therefrom; (S, O, K;) whence its usage in the Kur xxvi. 63: (S, O:) and a portion of anything (K, TA) when it is separated; and the pl. is فِرَقٌ: (TA:) or a portion that is separated, or dispersed, of a thing; and thus it is said to mean in the Kur ubi suprá; and the pl. is أَفْرَاقٌ, like أَحْمَالٌ as pl. of حِمْلٌ.

(L, TA: but the first word, in both, is without any vowel-sign.) See, again, فِرْقَةٌ. b3: And A set of boys. (O, K.)

A3: See also 8.5 تلبّس بِالثَّوْبِ (S, K) He clad himself [lit. mixed himself, being explained by إِخْتَلَطَ,] with the garment. (K.) You say, تلبّس بِلِبَاسٍ حَسَنٍ and لِبَاسًا حَسَنًا [He clad himself with goodly clothing].

Hence, one of the uses of the preposition بِ is explained by some as being لِلْاِلْتِبَاسِ: by others, ↓ لِلْمُلَابَسَةِ, or لِلْمُصَاحَبَةِ: all of which signify nearly the same. For instance, it is said in the Mgh, art. توج, that in the phrase التَّمَاثِيلُ بِالتِيجَانِ “ the effigies with the crowns ” upon pieces of money, بالتيجان is used as a denotative of state, meaning مُلْتَبِسَةً بِالِتّيجَانِ and مَقْرُونَةً مَعَهَا accompanied with the crowns, as their attributes: and نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ “ we declare thy remoteness from evil, with the praising of Thee,” in the Kur ii. 28, is explained by Bd and others as meaning, مُلْتَبِسِينَ بِحَمْدِكَ making the praising of Thee to be as an accompaniment, or an adjunct, to our doing that: and تَنْبُتُ بِالدُّهْنِ “ growing, with oil ”, in the same, xxiii. 20, as meaning, مُلْتَبِسًا بِالدُّهْنِ having oil as an accompaniment to its growth. Sometimes, in such instances, we find مُتَلَبِّسًا and مُتَلَبِّسِينَ in the places of مُلْتَبِسًا and مُلْتَبِسِينَ: see 5.]

لَبْسٌ Confusedness of a thing or an affair or a case; as also ↓ لَبَسٌ: (M:) [and ↓ لُبْسٌ and ↓ لُبْسَةٌ and ↓ لَبُوسَةٌ and ↓ لُبُوسَةٌ have the same, or a similar, signification.] You say, فِى رَأْيِهِ لَبْسٌ In his judgment, or opinion, is confusedness.

صمت

1 صَمَتَ, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb,) aor. ـُ (S, M, Msb,) inf. n. صَمْتٌ (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K) and صُمْتٌ (M, L, TA) and صُمُوتٌ and صُمَاتٌ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) or the first of these is the inf. n. and the rest are simple substs.; (M;) and ↓ اصمت, (S, M, Msb,) inf. n. إِصْمَاتٌ; (K;) and ↓ صمّت, inf. n. تَصْمِيتٌ; (S, K; but only the inf. n. is mentioned;) He was, or became, silent, mute, or speechless; syn. سَكَتَ: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he was, or became, long silent or mute or speechless: (M, Mgh:) but there is a difference between سَكَتَ and صَمَتَ; for the former is said of him who has the power, or faculty, of speech, but abstains from making use of it; whereas the latter is sometimes said of that which has not the power, or faculty, of speech. (Er-Rághib, MF and TA in art. سكت.) The Arabs say, (Ks, TA,) and it is said in a trad., (TA,) لَا صَمْتَ يَوْمًا إِلَى اللَّيْلِ, or يَوْمٌ, or يَوْمٍ, i. e. There shall be no keeping silence a whole day [until night]. (Ks, K, TA. [In the “ Jámi' es-Sagheer,” we find لا صُمَاتَ instead of لا صَمْتَ: and El-Munáwee, in his Commentary on that work, says that the keeping silence for a whole day is forbidden by the words of this trad. because it is an imitation of a Christian custom.]) And إِذْنُهَا صُمَاتُهَا [in another trad., relating to the asking a virgin if she consent to be married, lit. Her permission is her silence,] means her silence is like her permission, i. e. it suffices. (Msb.) One says also, جَآءَ بِمَا صَآءَ وَصَمَتَ (assumed tropical:) [He brought what was vocal and what was mute]; مَا صَآءَ meaning sheep, or goats, and camels; and مَا صَمَتَ, gold and silver: (IAar, TA:) صَآءَ in this saying is formed by transposition from صَأَى [q. v.]. (S in art. صأى.) 2 صمّتهُ, (M, A, K,) inf. n. تَصْمِيتٌ; (S;) and ↓ اصمتهُ; (M, A, Msb, K;) He made him, or rendered him, silent, mute, or speechless: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he made him, or rendered him, long silent or mute or speechless. (M.) b2: [Hence,] صَمِّتِى صَبِيَّكِ Feed thy child with that which will silence it [or quiet it]. (A, TA.) b3: and صمّت الرَّجُلَ He inclined to the man who complained to him by reason of his complaint [and so quieted him; or he cared for the complaint of the man and so quieted him; see مُصَمِّتٌ]. (M, TA.) A2: See also 1, first sentence.4 اصمتهُ: see 2. b2: [Hence,] لَمْ يُصْمِتْهُ ذٰلِكَ That did not suffice him [so as to quiet him]: said only of what is eaten and drunk. (TA.) b3: and اصمتهُ He made it to be solid, not hollow; without a cavity. (A'Obeyd, S, K.) [For that which is without a cavity is generally non-sonorous.] b4: And أُصْمِتَتِ الأَرْضُ, or أَصْمَتَت, (accord. to different copies of the K, the latter accord. to the O,) The land became altered (أَحَالَت) [so as to be rugged, or hard, app. in consequence of its having been left untilled and unsown,] at the end of two years, (O, K,) and had rugged patches of urine and dung. (O.) A2: See also 1, first sentence. b2: أَصْمَتَ also signifies He was, or became, tonguetied, (O, TA,) and spoke not; (TA;) said of a sick man. (O, TA.) صُمْتَةٌ a subst. from صَمَتَ [as such signifying Silence, muteness, or speechlessness; like صَمْتٌ used as a subst., and صُمْتٌ &c.; and like سُكْتَةٌ and سِكْتَةٌ]. (M, TA.) b2: And (M, TA) A thing, (M, A, K, TA,) i. e. food, (A, K, TA,) or the like, (K, TA,) such as a date, or something pretty, (TA,) with which one silences [or quiets] (M, A, K, TA) a child; (A, K, TA;) as also ↓ صِمْتَةٌ; (Lh, M, TA;) like سُكْتَةٌ [in this sense as well as in the former sense]. (S.) A date is called صُمْتَةُ الصَّبِىِّ [The quieter of the child], (M, TA,) and صُمْتَةُ الصَّغِيرِ [The quieter of the little one], so in a trad., because when the little one cries, or weeps, he is silenced with it. (TA.) One says, مَا عِنْدَهَا صُمْتَةُ لَيْلَةٍ She has not as much as would silence [or quiet] her child during one night. (A.) and مَا لَهُ صُمْتَةٌ لِعِيَالِهِ and ↓ صِمْتَةٌ He has not what would feed and silence [or quiet] his household, or family. (Lh, M.) صِمْتَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

(K.) رَمَاهُ بِصُمَاتِهِ, (Az, K, A, K, [in a copy of the M بصِمَاتِه, but this I think a mistranscription,]) or ↓ بِصُمَاتَةٍ, (K accord. to the TA, and so in the M in art. سكت,) [both probably correct, for] one says also بِسُكَاتِهِ (Az, S) and بِسُكَاتَةٍ, (S, M, A, K, in art. سكت,) He (a man, Az, S, or God, A) smote him, or afflicted him, with a thing that silenced him. (Az, S, M, A, K.) [See رَمَاهُ بِسُكَاتٍ, in art. سكت.] b2: صُمَاتٌ signifies also Thirst: (As, TA:) or quickness of thirsting, (M, K, TA,) in men and in beasts. (M, TA.) فُلَانٌ عَلَى صِمَاتِ الأَمْرِ Such a one is, or was, at the point of accomplishing the affair. (S.) And أَنَا عَلَى صِمَاتِ حَاجَتِى I am at the point of accomplishing my want. (M.) And بَاتَ عَلَى

صِمَاتِ أَمْرِهِ He passed the night resolved upon his affair. (TA.) And هُوَ بِصِمَاتِهِ He is at the point of [attaining] his purpose: (M, TA:) Aboo-Málik says that صِمَاتٌ signifies قَصْدٌ [i. e. purpose, intention, &c.]. (TA.) And one says, بَاتَ مِنَ القَوْمِ عَلَى صِمَاتٍ He passed the night in a place where he was seen and heard by the people, near to them. (S, TA.) دِرْعٌ صَمُوتٌ (tropical:) A coat of mail from which no sound is heard to proceed when it is put on, (S, A, L, TA,) it being soft to the feel, not rough nor rusty: (L, TA:) or a heavy coat of mail.

(TA. [لَها in the CK is erroneously put for لَهُمَا.]) And سَيْفٌ صَمُوتٌ (assumed tropical:) A sword that penetrates deeply into the thing struck with it [so as not to make a sound by its being repelled by a bone]. (K, TA.) And ضَرْبَةٌ صَمُوتٌ (assumed tropical:) A blow [with a sword or the like] passing among the bones, not recoiling from a bone (M, K, TA) so as to make a sound. (TA.) b2: And شَهْدَةٌ صَمُوتٌ (tropical:) A honey-comb that is full; not having a cell empty. (A, K.) صُمَاتَة: see رَمَاهُ بِصُمَاتِهِ, above.

صِمِّيتٌ, applied to a man, (S,) i. q. سِكِّيتٌ, (S, K, TA,) [i. e. Much, or often, silent or mute or speechless; or] long silent &c. (TA.) صَامِتٌ Silent, mute, or speechless: (Msb:) pl. صَامِتُونَ (Kur vii. 192) [and صُمُوتٌ, occurring in the K in art. زم]. [Hence,] one says, مَا لَهُ صَامِتٌ وَلَا نَاطِقٌ (tropical:) [He has not mute nor vocal property; or he has not dead nor live stock]: (S, M, A:) by the former are meant gold and silver; (S, M, Msb, K;) and by the latter, camels, (S, K,) and sheep or goats, (S,) or animals: (M:) i. e. he has not aught. (S.) b2: Also, of camels, (assumed tropical:) Twenty, (O, K,) and the like. (O.) b3: And of milk, (assumed tropical:) Such as is thick. (S, O, K.) أَصْمَتُ: see مُصْمِتٌ.

لَقِيتُهُ بِوَحْشِ إِصْمِتَ and بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمِتَ Az explains as meaning [I met him, or met with him, or found him,] in a desert place, in which was no one to cheer by his company: (S: [and in like manner the latter phrase is expl. in the M:]) accord. to Kr, بِبَلْدَةٍ إِصْمِتَ; but the phrase commonly known is بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمِتَ: (M:) or تَرَكْتُهُ بِبَلْدَةِ إِصْمِتَ [I left him] in the desert, or waterless desert: or in such a place that it was not known where he was: (K:) and بِصَحْرَآءِ إِصْمِتَ (M, K) meaning as above, (K,) or having the latter of these two meanings: (M:) and بِوَحْشِ

إِصْمِتَ and ↓ إِصْمِتَةَ, (M, K,) mentioned, but not expl., by Lh, (M,) meaning as above, (K,) or app. meaning in the desert, or waterless desert: (M:) and some say, بِوَحْشِ الإِصْمِتَيْنِ: (TA:) اصمت is as above, with the disjunctive alif; and also with the conjunctive [i. e. اصْمِتَ]: (O, K:) it is imperfectly decl., (S, MF, TA,) because combining the quality of a proper name with the fem. gender or with the measure of a verb: (MF, TA:) it is said that the desert, or waterless desert, is thus called because in it one fears much; as though everyone [therein] said to his companion, اصمت [i. e. اُصْمُتْ or أَصْمِتْ, “Be thou silent ”]; like as they say of a مَهْمَه that it is so called because a man [therein] says to his companion, مَهْ مَهْ: (MA:) [for] accord. to some the word إِصْمِت is an imperative changed into a subst., and hence the ء is disjunctive, and it may be with kesr accord. to a dial. var. [of the imperative] that has not reached us: accord. to Yákoot, it is the name of a particular desert; but others say that the proper name [of that desert] is وَحْشُ إِصْمِتَ. (TA in art. وحش.) إِصْمِتَة: see the next preceding paragraph.

مُضْمَتٌ [primarily signifies Made, or rendered, silent, mute, or speechless. b2: And hence,] Solid; not hollow; having no cavity. (A 'Obeyd, S, M, Mgh, Msb, K.) [For that which is without a cavity is generally non-sonorous.] b3: And A door, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and a lock, (M, K,) closed, or locked, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) so that one cannot find the way to open it. (S, M, * K. *) A poet says, وَمِنْ دُونِ لَيْلَى مُصْمَتَاتُ المَقَاصِرِ [And in the way to Leylà are what are closed, &c., of chambers to which the owner alone has access: مَقَاصِر being used by poetic license for مَقَاصَير, pl. of مَقْصُورَةٌ]. (TA.) b4: Also A garment, or piece of cloth, of one, unmixed, colour. (M, Mgh, K.) The garment thus termed that is disliked is That of which the warp and woof are both of silk: or such as is woven of undressed silk, and then dressed, and dyed of one colour: (Mgh:) [or] such as is termed مُصْمَتٌ مِنْ خَزٍّ, i. e. consisting entirely of silk, not mixed with cotton nor with other material, was forbidden by the Prophet. (TA.) b5: [Hence,] فَرَسٌ مُصْمَتٌ A horse of one, unmixed, colour; in which is no colour differing from the rest: (S, A, TA:) pl. خَيْلٌ مُصْمَتَاتٌ. (TA.)

(TA.) b7: The فَهْد [or lynx, an animal proverbial for much sleeping,] is said to be مُصْمتُ النَّوْمِ (tropical:) [app. meaning A heavy sleeper]. (A, TA.) b8: الحُرُوفُ المُصْمَتَةُ are All the letters [of the Arabic alphabet] except those called حُرُوفُ الذَّلَاقَةِ [or الحُرُوفُ الذُّلْقُ]; (M, TA;) i. e. (TA) all the letters except those comprised in the phrase مُرْ بِنَفْلٍ. (K, TA.) [What is here rendered “ except ” (i. e. مَا عَدَا) is said by MF to be omitted in most of the copies of the K.] b9: See also مُصَمَّتْ.

مُصْمِتٌ Tongue-tied; (O, TA;) not speaking: (TA:) applied to a sick man [when he is unable to speak]: (O, TA:) and ↓ أًصْمَتُ [signifies the same,] i. q. أَبْهَمُ and مُبْهَمٌ. (So in copies of the K in art. بهم. [In one of the explanations which I have given of مُبْهَمٌ in consequence of an omission (to be supplied in Book II.), أَصْمَتُ is made syn. with مُصْمَتٌ.]) أَلْفٌ مُصَمَّتٌ (assumed tropical:) A thousand completed; (M, K;) like مُصَتَّمٌ; (M;) as also ↓ مُصْمَتٌ. (K.) مُصَمِّتٌ [A silencer, or quieter: and hence, b2: ] One who cares for another's complaint. (M, * Meyd, TA.) One says, (M, Meyd, TA,) i. e. a rájiz says, addressing a camel belonging to him, (Har p. 642,) إِنَّكَ لَا تَشْكُو إِلَى مُصَمِّتِ فَاصْبِرْ عَلَى الحِمْلِ الثَّقِيلِ أَوْ مُتِ [Verily thou complainest not to one who cares for thy complaint; therefore endure with patience the bearing of the heavy burden, or die]. (M, Meyd, TA.) تَشْكُو إِلَى غَيْرِ مُصَمِّتٍ, i. e. [Thou complainest] to one who cares not for thy case, is a proverb. (Meyd.)

A poet (namely Aboo-Useydeh Ed-Debeeree, TA) says, هُمَا سَيِّدَانَا يَزْعُمَانِ وإِنَّمَا يَسُودَانِنَا أَنْ يَسَّرَتْ غَنَمَا هُمَا (S, M) They two are our two chiefs, as they assert; but they are only our chiefs inasmuch as their sheep, or goats, abound in milk and in offspring.

(A.) You say, يَاسِرْ بِأَصْحَابِكَ Take thou the left-hand side or direction with thy companions; (S, A;) as also تَيَاسَرْ; but some disapprove of this latter. (S.)

(TA.) One says, in praying (M, A) for a pregnant woman, (A,) أَيْسَرَتْ وَأَذْكَرَتْ May she have an easy birth, (Lh, M, A,) and may she bring forth a male child. (Lh, M.)

(A.) 5 تيسّر It (a thing, M, Msb) was, or became, facilitated, or easy; (M, A, Msb, K, TA;) contr. of difficult, hard, strait, or intricate; (TA;) as also ↓ استيسر. (M, A, Msb, K.) Yousay, أَخَذْنَا مَا تَيَسَّرَ, and ↓ مَا اسْتَيْسَرَ, We took what was easy [of obtainment, or of attainment]. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., respecting the eleemosinary tax called وَيَجْعَلُ معَهَا شَاتَيْنِ إِنِ, زَكَاة لَهُ أَوْ عِشَرِينَ دِرْهَمًا ↓ اسْتَيْسَرَتَا And he shall put with it, or them, two sheep, or goats, if they be easy to him [to give], or twenty dirhems. (TA.) And in the Kur, [ii. 192,] مِنَ الهَدْىِ ↓ فَمَا اسْتَيْسَرَ What is easy [to give], of camels and kine and sheep or goats: or, as some say, either a camel or a cow or a sheep or goat. (M, TA.) b2: Also, تيسّر لَهُ, (S, TA,) and له ↓ استيسر, (S, K, TA,) (assumed tropical:) It (a thing, or an affair, K) was, or became, prepared, or made ready for him: (S, K, TA:) [and he prepared himself for it.] It is said in a trad., قَدْ تَيَسَّرَا لِلْقِتَالِ (assumed tropical:) They had both prepared themselves, or made themselves ready, for fight. (TA, from a trad.) b3: تَيَسَّرَتِ البِلَادُ (tropical:) The countries became abundant in herbage, or in the goods, conveniences, or comforts, of life. (TA, from a trad.) 6 تَيَاسَرُوا [They were gentle, or acted gently, one towards another; they treated one another with gentleness: (see 3, of which it is the quasipass.)] they were easy, or facile, one with another; syn. تساهلوا; (K, * TA;) تَيَاسُرٌ is the contr. of تَعَاسُرٌ. (S, art. عسر.) It is said in a trad., تَيَاسَرُوا فِى الصَّدَاقِ Be ye easy, or facile, not exorbitant, one with another, with respect to dowry. (TA.) A2: See also 3.

يَسْرٌ (TA) and ↓ يَسَرٌ, (M, A, K, TA,) [each an inf. n. (see 1) used as an epithet,] and يَاسِرٌ, (K, TA,) Easy and gentle in tractableness, submissiveness, or manageableness; applied to a man and to a horse: (TA:) or [simply] easy; facile; (M, A, K;) as also ↓ يُسْرٌ (TA) and يَسِيرٌ, (Msb), this last being syn. with هَيِّنٌ, (S, K,) and signifying not difficult, غَيْرُ عَسِيرٍ, (A,) and ↓ مَيْسُورٌ [respecting which see also عُسْرٌ, pl. مَيَاسِيرُ]. (A.) Hence, ↓ يَسَرَاتٌ, pl. of يَسْرَةٌ and يَسَرَةٌ, applied to the legs of a beast, signifies Easy: (M:) or light, or active, legs of a beast: (S, TA:) or light, or active, and obedient, legs of a beast of carriage: (A:) or the legs of a she-camel: and you say also, إِنَّ قَوَائِمَ هٰذَا الفَرَسِ يَسَرَاتٌ خِفَافٌ, meaning, verily the legs of this horse are obedient and light or active.

(M, A, TA) b3: طَعْنٌ يَسْرٌ The thrusting, or piercing, [straight forward; or] opposite the face: (S, M, K:) opposed to شَزْرٌ, which is from one's right and one's left. (TA.) See an ex. voce شَزَرَهُ.

يُسْرٌ [Easiness; facility;] contr. of عُسْرٌ; (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ يُسُرٌ; (S, Msb, TA;) [and ↓ يُسْرَى; (see 3, where it is variously explained;)] and ↓ مَيْسُورٌ is the contr. of مَعْسُورٌ, [and therefore signifies as above; or easy; facile;] (S;) or this last signifies, (accord. to the lexicologists, M,) what is made easy; or facilitated; or (accord. to Sb, M, [but see مَعَقُولٌ,]) it is an inf. n. of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, (M, K,) [used in the sense of يُسْرٌ as explained above,] of the same kind as [its contr.] مَعْسُورٌ; and Abu-l-Hasan says, that this is the truth; for it has no unaugmented verb, and inf. ns. of this measure are not of verbs which are in use, but only of imaginary unaugmented triliteral-radical verbs, as in the case of مَجْلُودٌ, which is [really] from تَجَلَّدَ. (M.) For examples of يُسْرٌ, see عُسْرٌ. b2: Also, (accord. to the M; but in the K, or; and in both of these lexicons the signification here following is placed first;) and in like manner, ↓ يُسُرٌ, (K,) and ↓ يَسَارٌ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and ↓ يَسَارَةٌ, (S, K,) and ↓ مَيْسَرَةٌ, and ↓ مَيْسُرَةٌ, (S, M, K,) of which last Sb says that it is like مَسْرُبَةٌ and مَشْرُبَةٌ in not being after the manner of the verb, [but after that of the simple substantive,] (M,) and ↓ مَيْسِرَةٌ, (K.) Easiness [of circumstances]; (M, K;) competence, or sufficiency; or richness, or wealth, or opulence; (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K;) abundance; (Msb;) [in these senses, also, contr. of عُسْرٌ;] and ↓ يُسْرَى signifies [the same; or] easy things or affairs or circumstances; contr. of عُسْرَى; as also ↓ مَيْسَرَةٌ. (TA, art. عسر.) You say also, ↓ أَنْظِرْنِى حَتَّى يَسَارِ [Grant thou me a delay until I shall be in a state of easiness of circumstances, &c.]; in which the last word is indecl., with kesr for its termination, because it is altered from the inf. n., which is المَيْسَرَةُ. (S.) In the Kur. [ii. 280,] some read, ↓ فَنَظِرَةٌ إِلَى مَيْسُرِهِ [Then let there be a postponement, or delay, until his being in a state of easiness of circumstances]: but Akh says, that this is not allowable; for there is no noun of the measure مَفْعُلٌ [of this kind]: as to مَكْرُمٌ and مَعُونٌ, [it is said that] they are pls. [virtually though not in the language of the grammarians] of مَكْرُمَةٌ and مَعُونَةٌ. (S.) [On this point, see مَأْلُكٌ, voce أَلُوكٌ.]
