1 شَمَسَ, aor. ـُ and شَمِسَ, (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. شُمُوسٌ; (TA;) and شَمِسَ, aor. ـَ (K) and شَمُسَ also, like فَضِلَ, aor. ـْ accord. to the lexicologists, as ISd says, but he holds the aor. of شَمِسَ to be شَمَسَ [only]; (TA;) and ↓ اشمس; (S, K;) It (a day) was, or became, sunny, or sunshiny; it had sun, or sunshine: (S, Msb, K:) or it had sun, or sunshine, all the daytime: or it was, or became, clear, or unobscured: (TA:) or its sun was, or became, vehement. (IF, Msb.) A2: شَمَسَ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (Msb, TA) and شَمِسَ, (Msb,) inf. n. شُمُوسٌ and شِمَاسٌ, (S, Msb, K,) He (a horse) refused to be ridden or mounted: (S, K:) or took fright and broke loose and ran away, refusing to be ridden, by reason of the vehemence of his force of resistance, [for لِشِدَّةِ متعبه in the TA, I read لشدّة مَنَعَتِهِ,] and his sharpness of temper, so that he would not remain still: (TA:) or became rebellious against his rider. (Msb.) b2: [Hence,] شَمَسَتِ المَرْأَةُ (assumed tropical:) The woman abstained from looking at men, and from exciting their desire. (TA.) b3: And شَمَسَ لِى فُلَانٌ (tropical:) Such a one showed enmity to me: (K: *) or showed his enmity to me, (T, S, A,) and almost made it to take effect, (A,) or as though he purposed to act: (T, TA:) or شَمَسَ فِى فُلَانٍ signifies, [unless فى be a mistake for لِى, and فُلَانٍ for فُلَانٌ,] he showed his enmity [towards such a one], and could not conceal it. (M in TA.) [See also 3.] b4: And الخَمْرُ تَشْمُسُ بِصَاحِبِهَا (assumed tropical:) Wine overcomes, and runs away with, its drinker. (TA.) 2 شمّس, (TK,) inf. n. تَشْمِيسٌ, (K,) He worshipped the sun.

[See also 1.]4 أَشْمَسَ see 1, first signification. b2: [Also He ascended a mountain towards the sun. (Freytag, from the Deewán of the Hudhalees.)]5 تشمّس He (a man) sat in the sun, or sunshine: (TA:) he set himself up [or exposed himself standing] to the sun. (S, TA.) A2: تشمّس عَلَيْهِ He was niggardly, tenacious, or avaricious, to him. (TA.) [See also the part. n., below.]

الشَّمْسُ [The sun;] the body of the solar light, that runs its course in the firmament: (Lth, * TA:) it is fem.: (S, * Msb, K:) and has neither dual nor pl.: (Msb:) or it has a pl., [though this is not used in a pl. sense,] namely, شُمُوسٌ, (S, K,) as though they called every part of it a شمس, like as they said مَفَارِقُ for مَفْرِقٌ. (S.) When it is made determinate without the article ال, [as] in the name عَبْدُ شَمْسَ, meaning The Servant of the Sun, (Msb, K,) i. e., of this luminous object, (Msb,) the شمس of heaven, because they used to worship it, (K,) it is imperfectly decl., (Aboo-'Alee, Msb, K,) because it is determinate and of the fem. gender, (Aboo-'Alee, K,) or because it is a proper name and of the fem. gender and altered from الشَّمْس: (Msb:) and a poet says, كَلَّا وَشَمْسَ لَنَخْضِبَنَّهُمُ دَمًا [Nay verily, by the sun, we will assuredly dye them with blood], making شمس imperfectly decl. because he means the art. ال to be understood: (IAar, TA:) but some say that in the former instance, (Msb, TA,) and in the latter, (TA,) the word in question has a different signification, which will be shown below: (Msb, TA:) and Sb says that none of the Arabs made شمس determinate without the art. ال, except in the proper name mentioned above, in which all of them made it so. (TA.) The dim. is ↓ شُمَيْسَةٌ. (S, TA.) b2: [Also The sun, or sunshine.] You say, قَعَدَ فِى الشَّمْسِ [He sat in the sun, or sunshine]. (TA.) b3: Also, (K, TA,) or شَمْسٌ, (Msb,) A certain ancient idol. (Msb, K.) Accord. to Ibn-El-Kelbee, it is this that is meant by the proper name mentioned above; and if so, it is perfectly decl.: (Msb:) and some say that it is this also that is meant in the words of the poet cited above, and that he makes the word imperfectly decl. because he uses it as a proper name of the image (الصُّورَة). (TA.) A2: شَمْسٌ also signifies A kind of necklace or collar: (S, K:) or a pendant, or suspended ornament, (مِعْلَاق,) of the necklace or collar upon the neck: or the collar of a dog: (TA:) or a kind of women's ornament: of the masc. gender: (Lh, TA:) pl. شُمُوسٌ.

(K.) b2: [Hence,] (assumed tropical:) A woman who abstains from looking at men, and from exciting their desire; as also ↓ شَامِسَةٌ: pl. of the former, شُمُسٌ; and of the latter, [شَوَامِسُ and] شُمُوسٌ.

(Mgh, K: [in the TA, شماسة; and in a copy of the A, شَمَّاسَة; but the right reading is that in the Mgh.]) شَامِسٌ A sunny, or sunshiny, day; a day having sun, or sunshine: or having sun, or sunshine, all the daytime: or clear; unobscured: and in like manner, ↓ شَمْسٌ and ↓ شَمِسٌ, a clear, cloudless, day: and شَامِسٌ also signifies intensely hot: (TA:) and ↓ مُشْمِسٌ, applied to a day, signifies the same as شَامِسٌ; (A;) and so ↓ مَشْمُوسٌ.

(K.)

شغل

1 شَغَلَهُ, (S, O, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (O, K, MS,) inf. n. شَغْلٌ (Msb, K) and شُغْلٌ, (K,) the latter on the authority of Sb, (TA,) He, or it, (a man, S, or an affair, Msb,) busied him, occupied him, or employed him; (K;) i. q. أَلْهَاهُ [signifying as above; and particularly he, or it, busied him, &c., so as to divert him from (عَنْ) something; or diverted him from a thing by busying him, &c.]: (S and Msb and K in art. لهو, and Bd and Jel in xv. 3, &c.:) [↓ شغّلهُ signifies he, or it, busied him, &c., much; i. e.] with teshdeed it denotes muchness: (Bd in xlviii. 11:) ↓ اشغلهُ is a good dial. var. of شَغَلَهُ; or is rare; or bad: (K:) accord. to IDrd [and J], (O,) one should not say أَشْغَلْتُهُ; (S, O;) for it is bad: (S:) accord. to IF, they scarcely ever say أَشْغَلْتُ, [thus in the O, but in the Msb ↓ اِشْتَغَلَ,] but it is allowable: (O:) none of the leading lexicologists is known to have pronounced it good. (TA.) [Hence the saying, شَغَلَتْ سَعَاتِى جَدْوَاىَ (see art. سعو and سعى), or, as some relate it, شغلت شِعَابِى جدواى (see art. شعب).] See another ex. voce شَاغِلٌ. One says also شُغِلَ بِهِ, (Msb, K,) meaning تَلَهَّى [i. e. He was, or became, busied, &c., by it], (Msb,) and به ↓ اشتغل [meaning the same]; (Az, Msb, K;) and شُغِلْتُ عَنْكَ بِكَذَا [I was, or became, busied, &c., so as to be diverted from thee, by such a thing], (S, O,) and ↓ اِشْتَغَلْتُ [in the same sense]: (S:) and عَنْهُ ↓ تشاغل, (TA,) which likewise signifies تَلَهَّى [meaning as expl. above, or he busied himself, &c., so as to divert himself from him, or it]: (TA in art. لهو, and Bd and Jel in lxxx. 10:) some disallow ↓ اِشْتَغَلَ, in the form of an active verb, but say اُشْتُغِلَ, in the form of a pass. verb; but it is originally quasi-pass of أَشْغَلْتُهُ, like as are اِحْتَرَقَ and اِكْتَهَلَ of أَحْرَقْتُهُ and أَكْهَلْتُهُ; [though why of أَشْغَلْتُهُ rather than of شَغَلْتُهُ, I do not see:] Az mentions the usage of its act. and pass. part. ns.: (Msb:) accord. to AHát and IDrd, one should not say ↓ اِشْتَغَلَ; but IF mentions, as transmitted from the Arabs, اُشْتُغِلَ فُلَانٌ بِالشَّىْءِ, and the pass. part. n. (O.) b2: One says also, نَحْنُ نَشْغَلُ عَنْكَ المَرْتَعَ (assumed tropical:) [We occupy the place of pasturage so as to keep it from thee], and المَآءَ [the water]; meaning, it is sufficient for us without being more than sufficient. (S in art. شفه.) And شُغِلَ عَنْكَ مَا عِنْدَنَا (assumed tropical:) [What we had was employed so as to be kept from thee]. (JK in that art.) 2 شَغَّلَ see the preceding paragraph.4 اشغلهُ: see 1. b2: مَا أَشْغَلَهُ [meaning How much is he busied! &c.], (Th, S, K,) denoting wonder, (Th, TA,) is anomalous, because one does not [regularly] form a verb of wonder from one in the form of a pass. verb. (Th, S, K.) 6 تشاغل عَنْهُ: see 1. [Accord. to Golius, تشاغلوا signifies They occupied one another, on the authority of the KL; in which, however, I find only تَشَاغُلٌ expl. as meaning خودرا بچيزى مشغول كردن i. e. To make oneself busied, &c., with a thing.]8 إِشْتَغَلَ see 1, in five places. b2: One says also, اِشْتَغَلَ فِيهِ السَّمُّ The poison crept into him, or pervaded him; syn. سَرَى: and اشتغل فِيهِ الدَّوَآءُ The medicine entered into him, and produced an effect upon him, or showed its effect upon him; syn. نَجَعَ. (TA.) شَغْلٌ an inf. n. of 1. (K, Msb.) See the next paragraph.

A2: And see also شَغْلَةٌ.

[of pauc.] أَشْغَالٌ (S, O, K) and [of mult.] شُغُولٌ: (K:) شُغْلٌ is mentioned by Sb as an instance of an inf. n. having a pl., namely, أَشْغَالٌ; like عَقْلٌ and مَرَضٌ. (TA in art. مرض.) [See also أُشْغُولَةٌ.]

شَغَلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

شَغِلٌ Busy, or busied, occupied, or employed: (K:) [and particularly busy, &c, so as to be diverted from a thing:] thought by ISd to be a possessive epithet [meaning ذُو شُغْلٍ], because it has no verb to which it is conformable: (TA:) it is an epithet applied to a man, from الشَّغْلُ [or الشُّغْلُ]: (IAar, in O:) and ↓ مَشْغُولٌ signifies the same; (Msb, TA;) and ↓ مُشْتَغِلٌ (Az, Msb, K) and ↓ مُشْتَغَلٌ, (Az, IF, O, Msb, K,) the latter [said to be] extr. [meaning anomalous, for اُشْتُغِلَ is not mentioned by F]. (K.) شُغُلٌ: see شُغْلٌ.

شَغْلَةٌ Reaped grain or wheat, collected together, in the place where it is trodden out; syn. بَيْدَرٌ and كُدْسٌ (IAar, O, K) and عَرَمَةٌ; (IAar, O;) as also ↓ شَغَلَةٌ: (IAth, TA:) pl. [or coll. gen. n.] of the former ↓ شَغْلٌ, (O, K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, شُغَلٌ,]) like as تَمْرٌ is of تَمْرَةٌ. (O, TA.) شَغَلَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

شَغَّالٌ signifies كَثِيرُ الشُّغْلِ [i. e. Having much business or occupation or employment; or who busies or occupies or employs himself much]. (TA.) شَاغِلٌ act. part. n. of شَغَلَهُ; [Busying, occupying, or employing; &c.;] (S, Msb;) applied to a man, (S,) or to an affair. (Msb.) [Hence,] one says, عَنْكَ الشَّوَاغِلُ ↓ شَغَلَتْنِى [Busying affairs busied me, or have busied me, so as to divert me from thee]: the last word being pl. of شَاغِلٌ. (TA.) شُغْلٌ شَاغِلٌ [lit. Busying business, or the like,] has an intensive meaning: (K:) the latter word in this case is a corroborative, as in لَيْلٌ لَائِلٌ. (S.) أَشْغَلُ [More, and most, busy &c.]. أَشْغَلُ مِنْ ذَاتِ النِّحْيَيْنِ [More busy than she who was the owner of the two skins of butter] is a prov. [mentioned in the TA]: she was a woman of [the tribe of] Teym-Allah: she used to sell clarified butter, in the Time of Ignorance; and Khowwát Ibn-Jubeyr El-Ansáree came to her, demanding to buy clarified butter of her, and saw no one with her, and he bargained with her: so she untied a skin, and he looked at it: then he said to her, “Hold thou it until I look at another: ” and she said, “Untie thou another skin: ” and he did so, and looked at it, and said, “I desire other than this; therefore hold thou it: ” and she did so: and when her hands were [thus] occupied, he assaulted her, and she was unable to repel the him. (Meyd.) أُشْغُولَةٌ an instance of the measure أُفْعُولَةٌ from الشُّغْلُ [similar to أُلْهُوَّةٌ and أُلْهِيَّةٌ, and to أُلْعُوبَةٌ, &c.; app. meaning A thing with which one is busied, &c.: and also syn. with شُغْلٌ]. (O, K.) مَشْغَلَةٌ A thing that causes one to be busied, &c.: (K, * TA:) pl. مَشَاغِلُ. (TA.) مَشْغُولٌ: see شَغِلٌ. b2: [Hence,] فُلَانٌ فَارِغٌ مَشْغُولٌ Such a one is devoted to that which is unprofitable. (TA.) b3: And جَارِيَةٌ مَشْغُولَةٌ A young woman having a husband. (TA.) b4: and مَالٌ مَشْغُولٌ Property devoted to commerce. (TA.) b5: And دَارٌ مَشْغُولَةٌ A house in which are inhabitants. (TA.) مُشْتَغِلٌ and مُشْتَغَلٌ: see شَغِلٌ.

(M.) [Hence,] الثَّوْرُ (tropical:) [The constellation Taurus;] one of the signs of the Zodiac. (S, M, K.) b2: (assumed tropical:) A lord, master, or chief, (M, A, K,) of a people. (A.)

[Verily I, with respect to my slaying Suleyk and then paying the price of his blood, am like the green substance upon the surface of stale water, that is beaten when the cows loathe the water]: but accord. to others, by الثور the poet means the bull; for the cows follow him: (M, TA:) the cows are not beaten, because they have milk; but the bull is beaten that they may be frightened and therefore drink. (S.) [See a slightly-different reading, and remarks thereon, in Ham p. 416: and see Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 330.

With its سُقُوط commences the time of the prayer of nightfall. (TA.) b4: (assumed tropical:) The whiteness in the lower part of the nail (M, K) of a man.

وعد

1 وَعَدَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. وَعْدٌ and عِدَةٌ, (S, L, Msb, K,) [in which the ة is a substitute for the elided و,] or the latter is a quasi-inf. n., (L,) and مَوْعِدٌ and مَوْعِدَةٌ, (L, Msb, K,) or the last is a quasi-inf. n., (L,) and مَوْعُودٌ and مَوْعُودَةٌ, (L, K,) the last two being instances of inf. ns. of the measures مَفْعُولٌ and مَفْعوُلَةٌ, (L,) He promised. (TA.) It is trans. immediately, and by means of the prep. ب; (L, Msb, K;) but some say that the ب is redundant in this case; and most of the lexicologists disallow it with this form of the verb, allowing it only with أَوْعَدَ. (TA.) It is also used with reference to good and evil: (S, L, Msb, K:) you say وَعَدَهُ خَيْرًا [He promised him good]: and وَعَدَهُ شَرًّا (tropical:) [He threatened him with evil]: (Fr, Fs, S, L, Msb, K, &c.:) and, [accord. to some,] وعده بِخَيْرٍ, and بِشَرّ. (IKoot, Msb.) When neither good nor evil is mentioned, if you mean the former, you say وَعَدَ [He promised good]: and if you mean the latter, ↓ أَوْعَدَ, (Fr, T, S, L, Msb, K,) inf. n. إِيعَادٌ, with which وَعِيدٌ is syn., (S, L, Msb, K,) being one irregular inf. n., [or quasiinf. n.,] (Msb,) [He threatened,] or threatened with, evil]; and ↓ أَوْعَدَهُ [He threatened him, menaced him, or threatened him with evil]; (Msb;) as also ↓ توعّدهُ, (L, Msb,) inf. n. تَوَعُّدٌ; (S, L, K;) and ↓ اتّعدهُ. (L.) You also say خَيْرًا ↓ اوعد [He promised good]; (IAar, T, ISd, Msb, K;) but this is extr.: (L:) and بِشَرٍّ ↓ اوعد [He threatened, or threatened with, evil]: (S, L, Msb, K:) when ب is introduced after this form of the verb, it relates only to evil: (Fs, Msb:) but you also say شَرًّا ↓ اوعده. (Msb.) b2: Failure of performance, with respect to a promise, the Arabs regard as a lie; but with regard to a threat, as generosity. A poet says, وَإِنِّى وَإِنْ أَوْعَدْتُهُ أَوْ وَعَدْتُهُ لَمُخْلِفُ إِيعَادِى وَمُنْجِزُ مَوْعِدِى

[And verily I, if I threaten him or promise him, fail to perform my threat, but fulfil my promise]. (Msb.) Nay, they do not apply the term خُلْفٌ to the failure of performing a threat. (TA.) b3: يَوْمُنَا يَعِدُ بَرْدًا (tropical:) Our day promises cold. (L.) b4: وَعَدَتِ الأَرض (tropical:) The land promised good produce. (A.) b5: وَاعَدَهُ فَوَعَدَهُ: see 3.3 واعدهُ, inf. n. مُوَاعَدَةٌ, He promised him, the latter doing the same to him.

(L, K. *) b3: وَاعَدهُ الوقْتَ, and المَوْضِعَ, [He appointed with him the time, and the place]. (L, K.) أَوْعَدَنِى مَوْعِدًا is a vulgar mistake. (Aboo-Bekr, L.) 4 أَوْعَدَ see 1 throughout.

A2: اوعد, (A, L,) inf. n. إِيعَادٌ, (L,) in the sense of which وَعِيدٌ is also used [as a quasi-inf. n.], (S, A, L, K) (tropical:) He (a stallion-camel) brayed, (هَدَرَ, S, A, &c.) on his being about to attack and fight with other camels. (S, A, L.) 5 تَوَعَّدَ see 1.6 تواعدوا and ↓ اتّعدوا signify the same, [They promised one another]: (K *, TA:) or the former relates to good, (S, Msb, K,) signifying they promised one another something good: (S, Msb,) and the latter, to evil, (S, L, K,) signifying they threatened one another: (L:) and this distinction is commonly admitted and observed. (TA.) b2: تَواَعَدْنَا المَوْضِعَ, [and الوَقْتَ, We appointed mutually the place, and the time]. (Msb.) 8 اتّعد, (A,) [aor. ـّ inf. n. إِتِّعَادٌ, (S, L, K,) He accepted a promise: (S, A, L, K:) originally إِوْتَعَدَ; the و being changed into ت and then incorporated [into the augmentative ت]: some persons say ائْتَعَدَ, aor. ـْ (inf. n. ائْتِعَادٌ, TA) and pronounce the act. part. n. مُؤْتَعِدٌ, with ء; (S, L, K;) like as they say يَأْتَسِرُ: (S, L:) but [if they do not change the و into ت] they should say إِيتَعَدَ, and يَاتَعِدُ, and مُوتَعِدٌ, without وَعُدَ. (IB, L.) b2: Also, He confided in the promise of another. (L.) b3: See also 1: b4: and 6.

وَعْدٌ and ↓ عِدَةٌ (in which latter the ة is a substitute for the [elided] و, S, L) and ↓ مَوْعِدٌ and ↓ مَوْعِدَةٌ and ↓ مَوْعُودٌ (A) and ↓ مَوْعُودَةٌ: (L:) see 1: A promising; a promise; (A, L;) meaning, of something good: (S, L, &c.:) pl. of the first, وُعُودٌ; (IJ, L;) or this has no pl.: (T, S, L, Msb:) and of the second, عِدَاتٌ: (T, S, L, Msb:) (and of the ↓ third, مَوَاعِدُ:] and of ↓ موعود, مَوَاعِيدُ. (L.) When عِدَة is used as a prefixed n., [in a case of wasl,] the ة is elided, (Fr, S, L,) and ى is substituted for it: (Fr, L:) a poet says, وَأَخْلَفُوكَ عِدَى الْأَمْرِ الَّذِى وَعَدُوا [And they have broken to thee the promise of the thing which they promised]. (Fr, S, L.) b2: عَطِيَّةٌ ↓ العِدَةُ [A promise is equivalent to a gift]: i. e., it is base to break it as it is to take back a gift. A proverb. (TA.) b3: الثريَّا ↓ وَعَدَهُ عِدَةَ بِالقَمَرِ [He promised him as the moon promises the Pleiades]: for the moon and the Pleiades are in conjunction once in every month. Another proverb. (TA.) [Perhaps we may also read عِدَّةَ الثُّزَيَّا القَمَرَ: see مدَاد, in art. عد.] b4: إِخْلَافُ الوَعْدِ مِنْ أَخْلَاقِ الوَغْدِ [The breaking of a promise is one of the natural habits of the mean and base]. A saying of the Arabs. (MF.) b5: وَعْدٌ also signifies The fulfilment of a promise. Ex. مَتَى هٰذَا الوَعْدُ, in the Kur, [x. 49, &c.] means, When shall be the fulfilment of this promise? (L.) b6: Also, a thing promised. (TK, art. نجز.) عِدَةٌ: see وَعْدٌ, and 1.

عِدِىٌّ Of, or relating or belonging to, a promise: rel. n. of عِدَةٌ, like زِنِىٌّ of زِنَةٌ, formed without restoring the و like as it is restored in [the rel. n. of] شِيَةٌ: [see art. شيو:] but Fr says عِدَوِىٌّ and زِنَوِىٌّ, like شِيَوِىٌّ.
