Abu-l-Kásim Er-Zejjájee disapproves of this, saying that a verb of this form is only derived from an inf. n., as in the cases of ضَارَبَ and قَاتَلَ; whereas this is derived from مِلْحٌ, a subst. [But his objection seems to me invalid: this may be an anomalous instance, and yet of classical authority, like many others.] b2: مَالَحَهُ, inf. n. مُمَالَحَةٌ and مِلَاحٌ, (tropical:) He was, or became, his foster-brother. (L, TA.) [المِلَاحُ is explained in the K by المُرَاضَعَةُ: Lth explaines it by الرَّضَاعُ, as is mentioned in the TA: المُمَالَحَةُ is explained in the A, Mgh, L, and other lexicons by المُرَاضَعَةُ: in the copies of the K in my hands, by الرَّضَاعُ; and so in one copy of the S: in another copy of the S written الرِّضَاعُ; and in another الرّضَاع, without any vowel to the ر: الرضَاعُ, syn. with المُرَاضَعَةُ, is evidently the right reading.] Abu-l-Kásim Er-Zejjájee disapproves of the verb used as signifying the act of two men's sucking each other; [but this is not what is meant by المراضعة;] and pronounces it a post-classical word. (TA.) Yousay بَيْنَهُمَا حُرْمَةُ المُمَالَحَةِ Between them two is the sacred or inviolable bond, or obligation, which is the consequence of their being fosterbrothers. (A.) 4 أَــمْلَحَ See 1, in four places, and 2. b2: املح القَوْمُ (assumed tropical:) The people possessed milk; (tropical:) the people had fat camels or other beasts.

A2: املح الإِبِلَ He gave the camels salt water to drink. (K.) b2: املحــت الإِبِلُ The camels came to salt water to drink. (S.) b3: مَا أَمَيْلِحَ زَيْدًا (tropical:) [How very goodly, or beautiful, or pretty, is Zeyd! a diminutive form, meant to denote the contrary of the sense of a dim., being what is termed تَصْغِيرُ تَعْظِيمٍ, from مَا أَــمْلَحَــهُ:] (T, S, K:) the verb is here put into the dim. form, being meant to be used as an epithet, as though they said مُلَيْحٌ: (T:) it is the only instance of a verb put into this form, except مَا أُحَيْسِنَهُ, (S, K,) and, as some say, مَا أُحَيْلَاهُ. (TA.) This is said accord. to the doctrine of the Basrees, who assert the افعل of wonder to be a verb: but as to the Koofees, who say that it is a noun, [meaning an epithet,] they allow the formation of the dim. from it without restriction; and from its admitting the dim. form, they argue that it is a noun. (MF.) b4: مَا أَــمْلَحَ وَجْهَهُ, and فِعْلَهُ, (tropical:) How goodly, beautiful, or pretty, is his face! and how good is his action! (A.) b5: أَــمْلِحْــنِى بِنَفَسِكَ (tropical:) Grace me, or recommend me, (زَيِّنِّى,) [by thy speech]. (T, L.) 5 تَــمَلَّحَ See 1, in two places. b2: فُلَانٌ يَتَظَرَّفُ وَيَتَــمَلَّحُ (tropical:) [Such a one affects to be clever, or graceful, and to be goodly, beautiful, pretty, or facetious]. (A.) 9 إِــمْلَحَّ See 1, in two places.10 استــملحــهُ (assumed tropical:) He esteemed him, or it, goodly, beautiful, or pretty; (S, K;) [pleasing to the eye or ear: (the lexicons passim:)] or found him, or it, to be so (TA.) مَلْحٌ: see مِلْحٌ.

مِلْحٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ مَلْحٌ (M) (tropical:) The act of sucking the mother or any nurse; syn. رَضَاعٌ; (S, M, K;) a child's sucking its mother. (Abu-l- Kásim Ez-Zejjájee.) b2: مِلْحٌ (tropical:) Milk. (IAar.) The following verse of Abu-t-Tamahán, who had some camels, of the milk whereof he gave to drink to a people that afterwards made an attack upon them, and took them, is cited by As, [app., accord. to the S, as an ex. of ملح in the sense of رَضَاع; but as MF observes, it may be taken as an ex. of that word in the sense of milk;] وِإِنِّى لَأَرْجُو مِلْحَــهَا فِى بُطُونِكُمْ وَمَا بَسَطَتْ مِنْ جِلدِ أَشْعَثَ أَغْبَرَا (S, L.) The poet says, Verily I hope that ye may regard (أَنْ تَرْعَوْا [which is understood]) the milk which ye have drank, of these camels, [lit., their milk in your bellies,] and the skins which they have expanded, of a people with matted and dusty hair, and of a dusty hue; as though their skins had dried up, and they had fattened upon them. [Another explanation will be noticed below.] IB says, that the last word should be read أَغْبَرِ, for the sake of the rhyme; for each verse of the poem to which it belongs ends with kesreh. (L.) A2: مِلْحٌ a thing well known, (S, K,) [Salt;] that with which food is made pleasant: (L:) of the fem. gender (Z) generally; (O;) sometimes masc.: (K:) pl. مِلَاحٌ. (Msb.) Dim.

مُلَيْحَةٌ. (Msb.) b2: مَآءٌ مِلْحٌ, (S, K, &c.,) originally ↓ مَلِحْ, from the verb مَلُحَ, like خَشِنٌ from خَشُنَ, contracted because of the frequency of its usage; (Msb;) and ↓ ماء مَلِيحٌ, (K,) and ↓ مَالِحٌ; (IAar, ADk, Az;) [respecting which last, see what will be found after the explanation;] Salt water. (S, K, &c.) J says, that مَاء مالح is not allowable, except in a bad dial.: but Az says, that, though rarely found in the language of the Arabs, it is not to be rejected; and IB says, that it occurs in verses of chaste poets; and may be considered as used after the manner of a rel. n., [meaning ذُو مِلْحٍ,] like رَجُلٌ تَارِسٌ, i. e. ذُو تُرْسٍ, and دَارِعٌ, i. e. ذُو دِرْعٍ: (TA:) it is a chaste word, of the dial. of El-Hijáz, but extr., being from أَــمْلَحَ المَآءُ, like as you say بَاقِلٌ from أَبْقَلَ المَوْضِعُ; and when it is said that it is rare, it is meant that it is not agreeable with its verb, not that it is rare with respect to usage, seeing that it is of the dial. of the people of El-Hijáz, who selected the most chaste words of the various dialects: or it is regularly formed from مَلَحَ المَأءُ, a form of the verb sometimes used. (Msb.) The pl. of مِلْحٌ is مِلْحَــةٌ and مِلَاحٌ and مِلَحٌ: (L, K:) and sometimes is said أَمْوَاهٌ مِلْحٌ salt waters; and رَكِيَّةٌ مِلْحَــةٌ a salt well. (L.) b3: مِلَاحٌ Salt waters. (T, K.) ↓ قَلِيبٌ مَليِحٌ A well of salt water: (S, K:) pl. أَقْلِبَةٌ مِلَاحٌ, occurring in a verse of 'Antarah. (S.) b4: مِلْحٌ (assumed tropical:) Knowledge; science; learning; syn. عِلْمٌ. (IKh, Kz, K.) b5: (assumed tropical:) Men of science; learned men; syn. عُلَمَآءُ. (IKh, Kz, K.) b6: (tropical:) Goodliness, or beauty. (K.) [Accord. to the TA, it is an inf. n.: see مَلُحَ.] b7: (tropical:) Fat, as a subst. (Sh, K.) b8: (tropical:) Fatness: (K:) or a small degree of fatness. (TA.) b9: مِلْحٌ and ↓ مِلْحَــةٌ (tropical:) A sacred or inviolable bond, or the like, or any compact, bond, or obligation, which one is under an obligation to respect, or honour, or the cancelling or breaking of which renders one obnoxious to blame; syn. حُرْمَةٌ and ذِمَامٌ; and a compact, or confederacy; syn. حِلْفٌ. (K.) In some copies of the K, for حِلْفٌ is put حَلفٌ. (TA.) b10: Accord. to Aboo-Sa'eed, this is the signification of the former word in the verse of Abu-t-Tamahán cited above, and the poet means, I hope that God may punish you for your perfidious violation of the sacred obligation to their owner, which they imposed upon you. Yousay بَيْنَ فُلَانٍ وَفُلَانٍ مِلْحٌ, and ↓ مِلْحَــةٌ, There is a sacred or inviolable bond, &c., between such a one and such a one. [This meaning is derived from مِلْحٌ as signifying “ salt; ” the eating of which with another imposes upon the two parties a sacred mutual obligation.] The Arabs, says Abu-l-'Abbás, pay a high respect to salt and fire and ashes. (L.) [You say,] مِلْحُــهُ عَلَى رُكْبَتِهِ, so in the copies of the K, but correctly على رُكْبَتَيْهِ, as in all the other lexicons, (TA,) (tropical:) [lit., His salt is upon his knees;] meaning he has no good faith, so as to fulfil his promises, or engagements: (K:) or he has little good faith, so as to fulfil his promises, &c., for the Arabs swear by salt, and by water, because of their respect for them: (IAar:) or he violates the obligation imposed by such, the smallest thing making him forget it, like as the least thing scatters salt if a person puts it upon his knees: (T:) or he is fat: (K:) As says, that in the following verse, لَا تَلُمْهَا إِنَّهَا مِنْ نِسْوَةٍ

مِلْحُــهَا مَوْضُوعَةٌ فَوْقَ الرُّكَبْ [Blame her not; for she is of women whose fat is placed above the knees;] the woman meant was of the people called Ez-Zenj, whose fat is in their thighs, and ملحــها signifies their fat: (TA:) or he is sharp in his anger: (K:) or he is of evil disposition, rendered angry by the least thing; like as salt upon the knee is scattered by the least thing: (T:) or he is frequently engaged in altercation; as though his knees were much wounded by his long kneeling in altercation, and by his long striking his knees against those of another, and he therefore put salt upon them to cure them. (A.) [See also رُكْبَةٌ.]

A3: نَبْتٌ مِلْحٌ, and ↓ مَالِحٌ, A plant of the kind called حَمْضٌ.

(S.) [See أَــمْلَحُ.] b3: مُلْحَــةٌ (tropical:) A goodly, beautiful, pretty, or facetious, story, or narrative, and word, or saying, or speech; a bon-mot; (L;) وَاحِدَةُ الــمُلَحِ مِنَ الأَحَادِيثِ; (S, K;) [what is deemed beautiful, elegant, facetious, or the like, of stories, &c.: (Ibr D:) and so ↓ أُمْلُوحَةٌ, coupled with أُفْكُوهَةٌ in art. فكه in the TA:] also said to signify a bad, an abominable, or a foul, word, saying, or speech; a meaning taken from a trad. of 'Áïsheh, who applied this term [perhaps ironically] to a bad answer which she had given in consequence of her having misunderstood a question put to her: (L:) pl. مُلَحٌ. (S, K.) As said نِلْتُ بِالــمُلَحِ [I have attained to the station, or rank, to which I have attained by means of goodly, or facetious, sayings, &c.] (S.) حَدَّثْتُهُ بِالــمُلَحِ (tropical:) [I related to him goodly, beautiful, pretty, or facetious, stories.] (A.) b4: [A curiosity, an extraordinary thing.]

1 حَمَلَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَمْلٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K, &c., in some copies of the S حِمْلٌ) and حُمْلَانٌ, (Mgh, K,) He bore it, carried it, took it up and carried it, conveyed it, or carried it off or away, (MA,) عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ (S, MA,) upon his back, or عَلَى رَأْسِهِ upon his head; (MA;) and ↓ احتملهُ signifies the same: (Msb, K:) or the latter is used in relation to an object inconsiderable and small in comparison with that in relation to which the former is used; as in the saying of En-Nábighah, (TA,) إِنَّا اقْتَسَمْنَا خُطَّتَيْنَا بَيْنَنَا فَجَارِ ↓ فَحَمَلْتَ بَرَّةَ وَاحْتَمَلْتُ [Verily we have divided our two qualities between us, and thou hast borne as thy share goodness, and I have borne as my share wickedness]. (TA * in the present art., and S and TA &c. in arts. بر and فجر.) Hence, in the Kur [xx. 100], فَإِنَّهُ يَحْمِلُ يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ وِزْرًا [He shall bear, on the day of resurrection, a heavy burden]. (TA.) Hence also, in the Kur [vii. 189], حَمَلَتْ حَمْلًا خَفِيفًا [She bore a light burden]; (S, TA;) i. e., [as some say,] the seminal fluid. (TA.) Hence also, in the Kur [xxix. 60], وَكَأَيِّنْ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ لَا تَحْمِلُ رِزْقَهَا [And how many a beast is there that does not bear its sustenance !], meaning, (assumed tropical:) does not provide its sustenance, but is sustained by God.

(T, TA.) b3: See also 4. b4: حَمَلَتِ المَرْأَةُ, aor. ـِ (K,) inf. n. حَمْلٌ, (TA,) (tropical:) The woman became pregnant, or conceived: (K, TA:) and حَمَلَتْ وَلَدَهَا She became pregnant with, or conceived, her child: (Msb:) one should not say, حَمَلَتْ بِهِ; or this is rare; (K;) or one should not say this, but it is frequently said; (IJ, TA;) [for] as حَمَلَتْ is syn. with عَلِقَتْ, (Msb, TA,) and the latter is trans. by means of بِ the former is thus made trans., (TA,) therefore one says, حَمَلَتْ بِهِ فِى لَيْلَةِ كَذَا وَفِى مَوْضِعِ كَذَا, meaning She became pregnant with him, or conceived him, in such a night, and in such a place. (Msb.) حَمَلَتْ is also said of a ewe or she-goat, and of a female beast of prey, [and app. of any female,] accord. to IAar; meaning (assumed tropical:) She was, or became, in the first stage of pregnancy. (TA.) b5: حَمَلَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ, inf. n. حَمْلٌ, (assumed tropical:) The tree [bore, or] produced, or put forth, its fruit.

(S, * K.)

(Kur xx. 110.) b8: [حَمَلَ الأَمَانَةَ: see أَمَانَةٌ: accord. to some, it means (assumed tropical:) He took upon himself, or accepted, the trust: accord. to others, he was unfaithful to it: and ↓ اِحْتَمَلَهَا means the same.]

(assumed tropical:) Such a one shows (or will not conceal) his anger; and thus SM understood it; or as the explanation of يحمل alone, i. e. such a one will not show his anger]: (Az, TA:) [for] حَمَلَ الغَضَبَ, (K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. حَمْلٌ, (TA,) means (tropical:) he showed, or manifested, anger. (K, TA.) And hence, it is said, is the saying, in a trad., إِذَا بَلَغَ المَآءُ قُلَّتَيْنِ لَمْ يَحْمِلْ خَبَثًا, i. e. (assumed tropical:) [When the water amounts to the quantity of two vessels of the kind called قُلَّة,] impurity does not appear in it: (O, K, * TA:) or the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) it does not admit the bearing of impurity: for one says, فُلَانٌ لَا يَحْمِلُ الضَّيْمَ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) such a one refuses to bear, or submit to, and repels from himself, injury. (Msb.) Yousay also, حَمَلَ مِنْ ذٰلِكَ أَنَفًا (assumed tropical:) He conceived, in consequence of that, disdain, or scorn, arising from indignation and anger. (TA in art. انف, from a trad.) b12: حَمَلَ الحَدِيثَ (assumed tropical:) [He bore in his memory, knowing by heart, the tradition, or narrative, or story; and in like manner, القُرْآنَ the Kur-án]. (Msb in art. روى.) b13: حَمَلَ فُلَانًا, and بِهِ ↓ تحمّل and عَلَيْهِ, (assumed tropical:) He relied upon such a one in intercession, and in a case of need.

(Az, S.) b19: حَمَلَهُ عَلَى الأَمْرِ, aor. ـِ (assumed tropical:) He incited, excited, urged, instigated, induced, or made, him to do the thing, or affair. (ISd, K.) b20: [حَمَلَ لَفْظًا عَلَى لَفْظٍ آخَرَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَمْلٌ, a phrase often used in lexicology and grammar, (assumed tropical:) He made, or held, a word, or an expression, to accord in form, or in meaning, or syntactically, with another word, or expression. One says, يُحْمَلُ عَلَى الأَكْثَرِ (assumed tropical:) It (a word) is made to accord in form with those words with which it may be compared that constitute the greater number: thus one says of رَحْمَانُ, which is made to accord in form with words of the measure فَعْلَانُ, though it has not a fem. of the measure فَعْلَى, in preference to فَعْلَانٌ, because words of the measure فَعْلَانُ are more numerous than those of the measure فَعْلَانٌ. And يُحْمَلُ عَلَى نَقِيضِهِ (assumed tropical:) It (a word) is made to accord in form with its contrary in meaning: thus عِجَافٌ, an anomalous pl. of أَعْحَفُ, is made to accord. in form with سِمَانٌ, a regular pl. of سَمِينٌ. and يَحمَلُ عَلَى المَعْنَى (assumed tropical:) It (a word) is made to accord syntactically with its meaning: and يُحْمَلُ عَلَى اللَّفْظِ (assumed tropical:) It is made to accord syntactically with its grammatical character: the former is said when, in a sentence, we make a mase. word fem., and the contrary, because the meaning allows us to substitute a fem. syn. for the masc. word, and a masc. syn. for the fem. word: for ex., it is said in the Kur vi. 78, فَلَمَّا رَأَى الشَّمْسَ بَازِغَةً قَالَ هٰذَا رَبِّى “ And when he saw the sun rising, he said, This is my Lord: ” here (by saying بازغة) الشمس is first made to accord syntactically with its grammatical character (تُحْمَلُ عَلَى اللَّفْظِ); and then (by saying هٰذَا instead of هٰذِهِ) it is made to accord syntactically with its meaning (تُحْمَلُ عَلَى المَعْنَى), which is الجِرْم or the like: this is allowable; but the reverse in respect of order is of weak authority; because the meaning is of more importance than the grammatical character of the word. (Collected from the Kull pp. 156 and 157, and other works.)] b21: حَمَلَهُ أَحْسَنَ مَحْيَلٍ (assumed tropical:) [He put the best construction upon it; namely, a saying: محمل being here an inf. n.]. (TA in art. ابو) b22: [حَمَلَهُ عَلَى النَّاسِخِ (assumed tropical:) He attributed it to, or charged it upon, the copyist; namely, a mistake. حُمِلَ علَى النَّاسِخِ, said of a mistake, occurs in the K in art. ربخ b23: عَلَى آخَرَ حَمَلَ شَيْئًا, in logic, means (assumed tropical:) He predicated a thing of another thing.] b24: See also حُمْلَانٌ.2 حمّلهُ الشَّىْءَ, (Msb,) and الرِّسَالَةَ, (S, TA,) inf. n. تَحْمِيلٌ, (TA,) He made him, or constrained him, to bear or carry [the thing, and the message; and in like manner, عَلَيْهِ الشَّىْءَ ↓ حَمَلَ]. (S, Msb, * TA.) [And حمّلهُ, alone, He loaded him; namely, a camel, &c.] You say also, حَمَّلَهُ الأَمْرَ ↓ فَتَحَمَّلَهُ, inf. n. of the former تَحْمِيلٌ and حِمَّالٌ, like كِذَّابٌ, [which is of the dial. of El-Yemen], and of the latter verb تَحَمُّلٌ and تِحِمَّالٌ [like تِكِلَّامٌ &c.], (K,) (assumed tropical:) He imposed upon him the affair, as a task, or in spite of difficulty or trouble or inconvenience, and he undertook it, as a task, &c. (Msb in art. كلف.) And ↓ حَمَّلْتُهُ أَمْرِى فَمَا تَحَمَّلَ (assumed tropical:) [I imposed upon him my affair, as a task, &c., but he did not undertake it]. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xxiv. 53], فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْهِ مَا حُمِّلَ وَعَلَيْكُمْ مَا حُمِّلْتُمْ (assumed tropical:) [Upon him rests only that which he has had imposed upon him; and upon you, that which ye have had imposed upon you]: i. e., upon the Prophet rests the declaring of that which has been revealed to him; and upon you, the following him as a guide. (TA.) And رَبَّنَا عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِنْ ↓ عَلَيْنَا إِصْرًا كَمَا حَمَلْتَهُ ↓ تَحْمِلٌ قَبْلِنَا رَبَّنَا وَلَا تُحَمِّلْنَا مَا لَا طَاقَةَ لَنَا بِهِ (assumed tropical:) [O our Lord, and do not Thou impose upon us a burden, like as Thou imposedst it upon those before us: O our Lord, and do not Thou impose upon us that which we have not power to bear]: (Kur ii. last verse:) or, accord. to one reading, تُحَيِّلْ, which has an intensive signification [when followed by على]. (Bd.) b2: [حمّلهُ ذَنْبًا (assumed tropical:) He charged him with a crime, or an offence: see a verse of En-Nábighah cited voce عَرٌّ.]3 حاملهُ [He bore with him a burden]. You say, of a Wezeer, حَامَلَ المَلِكَ أَعْبَآءَ المُلْكِ (assumed tropical:) [He bore with the King the burdens of the regal office]. (A in art. وزر.) [See also 4.] b2: Also (assumed tropical:) He requited him; namely, a man: or, accord. to AA, مُحَامَلَةٌ signifies the requiting with beneficence. (TA.) 4 احملهُ He helped him to bear, or carry, (T, S,) that which he was bearing, or carrying: (T, TA:) or you say, احملهُ الحِيْلَ he helped him to bear, or carry, the load, or burden: and ↓ حَمَلَهُ, i. e. فَعَلَ ذٰلِكَ بِهِ [he did that with him]. (M, O, K.) [See also 3.]

A2: أَحْمَلَتْ She (a woman, S, K, and a camel, S) yielded her milk without being pregnant. (S, K.) 5 تحمّل He took upon himself the bearing, or carrying, of loads, or burdens: this is the primary signification. (Har p. 48.) b2: [Hence, (assumed tropical:) He burdened himself with, or he became, or made himself, chargeable with, or he bore, or took upon himself, the burden of, a sin, or crime, or the like; as also ↓ احتمل:] you say احتمل إِثْمًا meaning تحملّهُ. (Jel in iv. 112 and xxxiii. 58.) And تحمّل غُرْمًا (assumed tropical:) He took, or imposed, upon himself a debt, or fine. (MA.) b3: [And hence, likewise, several other significations:] see 2, in two places: b4: and 8: b5: and 1, in six places. b6: Also He bound the load, or burden, [or the loads, or burdens, on the saddle, or saddles, or on the beast, or beasts;] (Har p. 48;) and ↓ احتيل signifies [the same, or] he put, or placed, the load, or burden, [or the loads, or burdens,] on the saddle, [or saddles, or on the beast, or beasts.] (Har p. 556.) b7: [And hence,] تحمّلوا and ↓ احتملوا (assumed tropical:) They went away, departed, or journeyed. (S, TA.) 6 تحامل عَلَيْهِ [He bore, bore his weight, pressed, or pressed heavily, upon it, or him].

(Mgh in art. ركز.) And تَحَامَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ كَالعَاصِرِ [I pressed, or pressed heavily, upon it, like the squeezer of fruit &c.].

[In some copies of the K, for لَمْ يَسُغْ, we find لَمْ يَمْتَنِعْ, which is evidently a mistake.]) A3: He met, or met with, a man unintentionally: (M, K:) from the phrase, لَقِيتُهُ صَحْرَةَ بَحْرَةَ.

So in the Kur [xxx. 40], ظَهَرَ الفَسَادُ فِى البَرِّ وَ البَحْرِ (assumed tropical:) [Corruption hath appeared in the desert, or deserts, and in the land of seed-produce and fruitfulness; &c.]: (Aboo-'Alee, TA:) or the meaning here is, [in the desert, or deserts, and in the towns, or villages, in which is water: (see بَرٌّ:) or in the open country and] in the cities [or towns] upon the rivers; by sterility in the former, and scarcity in the latter: (Zj, TA, and T in art. بر:) or in the land and the sea; i. e., the land has become sterile, or unfruitful, and the supply of the sea has become cut off. (Az, TA.) See also بَحْرَةٌ. b9: Also, البَحْرُ, (S, K,) or بَحْرُ الرَّحِمِ, (A, Mgh,) (assumed tropical:) The bottom (عُمْق, S, A, Mgh, K, or قَعْر, IAth, TA) of the womb; fundus uteri: (S, A, Mgh, K:) whence blood of a pure red colour, (S,) or intensely red, (Mgh,) is termed بَحْرَانِىٌّ (S, Mgh) and بَاحِرٌ. (S.) بَحْرَةٌ A wide tract of land: so accord. to Aboo-Nasr: but in one place he says, a small valley in rugged land: pl. بِحَارٌ. (TA.) b2: A land, country, or territory, belonging to, or inhabited by, a people; syn. بَلْدَةٌ. (S, K.) One says, هٰذِهِ بَحْرَتُنَا This is our land, &c.; syn. أَرْضُنَا. (S.) It occurs also in the dim. form [↓ بُحَيْرَةٌ], as in the Towsheeh of El-Jelál. (TA.) b3: Any town, or village, that has a running river and wholesome water: (K:) and [absolutely] any town, or village: of such the Arabs say, هٰذِهِ بَحْرَتُنَا This is our town, or village: and the pl. بِحَارٌ they apply to cities, as well as towns, or villages. (TA.) b4: Low, or depressed, land: (IAar, K:) occurring also in the dim. form [↓ بُحَيْرَةٌ]. (TA.) b5: A meadow; or a garden; syn. رَوْضَةٌ: (T, TA:) or one that is large, (K,) and wide. (TA.) b6: A place where water stagnates. (Sh, K.) b7: The pl. is ↓ بَحْرٌ, (as in some copies of the K, [or this is a coll. gen. n. of which بَحْرَةٌ is the n. un.,]) or بِحَرٌ, (as in other copies of the K and in the TA,) or بُحْرٌ, (as in the CK,) and بِحَارٌ. (K.) A2: لَقِيتُهُ صَحْرَةَ بَحْرَةَ, (S, K,) and ↓ صُحْرَةَ بُحْرَةَ, as in the Expositions of the Tesheel, &c., (MF,) and صَحْرَةً بَحْرَةً, (K,) and ↓ صُحْرَةً بُحْرَةً, (MF,) I met him out, with nothing intervening between me and him; (S, L;) both of us being exposed to open view; (TA;) without anything concealing, or intervening. (K, TA.) صحرةَ بحرةَ, without tenween, is a compound denotative of state; not, as some say, consisting of two inf. ns.: and sometimes نَحْرَةً is added; in which case each of the three words is with tenween, decl.; and they do not form a compound. (MF. [But see صَحْرَة.)]

صُحْرَةَ بُحْرَةَ and صُحْرَةً بُحْرَةً: see بَحْرَةٌ.

بَحْرِيَّةٌ: see بَحْرِىٌّ.

بُحْرَانٌ, a post-classical word, (S, K,) used by the physicians, signifying The crisis of a disease; the sudden change which happens to a sick person, (S, TA,) and the commencement of convalescence, (TA,) in acute diseases; (S, TA;) at a time fixed by some motion in the heavenly bodies, mostly by a motion of the moon; being a change to health or to the contrary: a word [said to be] of Greek origin. (The Nuzheh of the sheykh Dáwood El-Antákee, cited in the TA.) [Pl. بَحَارِينُ.] They say, هٰذَا يَوْمُ بُحْرَانٍ and يَوْمٌ

↓ بَاحُورِىٌّ [This is the day of a crisis of a disease]: باحورىّ being anomalous: (S, K:) [perhaps from البَاحُورُ signifying “ the moon,” because the crisis of a disease is thought to be mostly fixed by a motion of the moon: or] as though it were a rel. n. of بَاحُورٌ and بَاحُورَآءُ meaning the “ vehemence of heat in [the month of] تَمُّوز. ” (S.) دَمٌ بَحْرَانِىٌّ (assumed tropical:) Blood of the menses; accord. to El-Kutabee: or (assumed tropical:) intensely red blood: (Mgh:) or (assumed tropical:) intensely red, and thick, and abundant, menstrual blood: (IAth:) or (tropical:) black blood: (A:) or, as also ↓ دَمٌ بَاحِرٌ, (S, M, Msb, K,) (assumed tropical:) blood of the womb: (K:) or (assumed tropical:) blood of a pure red colour: (S, M, K:) or (assumed tropical:) such blood from the belly: (M:) or (assumed tropical:) pure blood of an intensely red colour: (Msb:) both from البَحْرُ signifying “ the bottom of the womb: ”: (S:) the former is a rel. n. therefrom, (A, IAth, Msb,) in which the ا and ن are added to give intensiveness to the signification, (IAth,) or to distinguish it from the rel. n. of البَحْرُ [in its most common sense]: (Msb:) or it is a rel. n. of البَحْرُ [in its most common sense], because of its abundance. (IAth.) b2: أَحْمَرُ بَحْرَانِىٌّ, and ↓ بَاحِرٌ, (TA,) and ↓ بَاحِرِىٌّ, (IAar, TA,) (assumed tropical:) Intense red. (TA.) بُحَيْرٌ dim. of بَحْرٌ, which see, in two places.

بَحِيرَةٌ A she-camel having her ear slit: (S, * A, Msb, K *:) [and, as a subst., or an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant,] a she-camel of which the mother was a سَائِبَة; (Fr, S, Mgh, Msb, K;) i. e., of which the mother had brought forth ten females consecutively before her, and of which the ear was slit; (Mgh;) or of which the mother had brought forth five, of which five the last, if a male, was slaughtered and eaten, but if a female, her ear was slit and she was left with her mother; (Mgh, * Msb;) the predicament of which was the same as that of her mother; (Fr, S, K;) i. e., what was unlawful with respect to her mother was unlawful with respect to herself: (TA:) or a she-camel, or ewe, or she-goat, that had brought forth five young ones, and of which the fifth, if a male, was slaughtered, and its flesh was eaten by the men and women; but if a female, her ear was slit, and it was unlawful to the Arabs to eat her flesh and to drink her milk and to ride her; but when she died, her flesh was lawful to the women: (K:) so says Az, on the authority of Ibn-'Arafeh: (TA: [but it appears from the explanation in the Msb, quoted above, that it was the slit-eared young she-camel here mentioned, not the mother, that was thus termed:]) or a she-camel, or ewe, or she-goat, which, having brought forth ten young ones, had her ear slit, (K,) and no use was made of her milk nor of her back, (TA,) and she was left at liberty to pasture, (K,) and to go to water, (TA,) and her flesh, when she died, was made unlawful to the women of the Arabs, but was eaten by the men: (K:) or one that was left at liberty, without a pastor: (K:) or, as some say, syn. with سَائِبَةٌ; i. e., say they, a she-camel which, having brought forth seven young ones, had her ear slit, and was not ridden, nor used for carrying: (Msb:) or a she-camel that had brought forth five young ones, the last of which was a male, in which case her ear was slit, and she was exempted from being ridden and from carrying and from being slaughtered, and not prevented from taking of any water to which she came, nor from any pasturage, nor even ridden by a weary man who, having become unable to proceed in his journey, his means having failed him, or his camel that bore him stopping with him from fatigue or breaking down or perishing, might chance to find her: (Aboo-Is- hák the Grammarian, TA: [and the like, but less fully, is said in the Mgh:]) or, applied specially to a ewe, or she-goat, one that, having brought forth five young ones, had her ear slit: (L, K, TA: [in the CK, for بُحِرَت is put نُحِرَت:]) it also signifies a she-camel (L) abounding in milk: (L, K:) the pl. is بَحَائِرُ and بُحُرٌ; (L, K;) the latter a strange form of pl. of a fem. sing. such as بحيرة; and said to be the only instance of the kind except صُرُمٌ pl. of صَرِيمَةٌ, meaning “ having her ear cut off. ” (TA.) It is said in a trad., that the person who instituted the practices relative to the بحيرة and the حَامِى, and the first who altered the religion of Ishmael, was 'Amr the son of Loheí the son of Kama'ah the son of Jundab; and these practices are forbidden in the Kur v. 102. (TA.) بُحَيْرَةٌ A small sea; a lake: as though they imagined the word بَحْرَةٌ [as syn. with بَحْرٌ]: otherwise there is no reason for the ة. (M, TA.) b2: See also بَحْرٌ: and see بَحْرَةٌ, in two places.

بَاحُورٌ and ↓بَاحُورَآءُ The vehemence of heat in [the Syrian month of] تَمُّوز or تَمُوز [corresponding to July, O. S.]: (S, K:) [pl. of the former بَوَاحِيرُ:] both are [said to be] post-classical words: (S:) but they are [classical words,] arabicized; for they occur in verses of the kind called رَجَز of some of the [early] Arabs.

صير

1 صَارَ كَذَا, (T, S, Msb,) aor. ـِ (S,) inf. n. صَيْرُورَةٌ (S, Msb) and صَيْرٌ, (S,) He, or it, attained to the state, or condition, of such a thing; (T;) became such a thing; (T, Msb;) in which sense the verb is like كَانَ [in meaning, when the latter is non-attributive, and in having its subject in the nom. case and its predicate in the accus.]. (T.) You say, صَارَ زَيْدٌ رَجُلًا Zeyd became a man; or attained to the state, or condition, of a man. (TA.) And صَارَ زَيْدٌ غَنِيًّا Zeyd became rich, not having been so. (Msb.) And صَارَ العَصِيرُ خَمْرًا The expressed juice became wine. (Msb.) [and صَارَ لَا شَىْءَ عِنْدَهُ He became in a state, or condition, in which there was not anything in his possession. And صَارَ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا He became in the state, or condition, of doing such a thing; i. e. he became occupied, or engaged, in doing such a thing; or he set about, began, commenced, took to, or betook himself to, doing such a thing; like جَعَلَ. And صَارَ لَا يَفْعَلُ شَيْئًا He became in the state, or condition, of not doing anything; or he became unoccupied in doing anything. and صَارَ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ He became in the state of not speaking; he became speechless. And صَارَ يَتَفَكَّرُ فِى كَذَا He became in a state of reflection upon such a thing; he began to reflect upon such a thing.] b2: One says also, صَارَ الأَمْرُ إِلَى كَذَا, (M, A, Msb, K,) aor. as above, (TA,) inf. n. مَصِيرٌ, (S, M, A, Msb, K,) which is anomalous, being regularly مَصَارٌ, like مَعَاشٌ, (S,) and صَيْرٌ and صَيْرُورَةٌ, (M, A, K,) i. e. رَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ: (Msb:) [but this is a loose explanation; the meaning being, The thing, or affair, or case, came eventually (see صِيرٌ) to such a state, or condition:] the difference between مَصِيرٌ and مَرْجِعٌ is, that the former word necessarily implies a difference [of the latter state or condition] from the former state or condition; but the latter word does not. (Bd in iii. 156.) [In this case, the ulterior state or condition is likened to a place: for] b3: صَارَ also signifies He, or it, attained in respect of place: so in the saying, صَارَ زَيْدٌ إِلَى عَمْرٍو [Zeyd came, or went, or pursued a course that brought him, to 'Amr]. (TA.) صِرْتُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ [I came, &c., to such a one] is similar to the phrase in the Kur [iii. 27]

وَإِلَى اللّٰهِ الْمَصِيرُ [And to God, as the ultimate object, is the transition, or course, of every human being]. (S.) [Hence, أًلَا إِلَى اللّٰهِ تَصِيرُ الْأُمُورُ, in the Kur xlii. last verse, which Bd explains by adding the words بِارْتِفَاعِ الوَسَائِطِ وَالتَّعَلُّقَاتِ; the meaning being, Verily to God are things, or events, referrible, mediately and dependently: in the Expos. of the Jel expl. as meaning تَرْجِعُ.] b4: [And in like manner one says, صَارَ لَهُ كَذَا Such a thing came to, betided, or befell, him, or it: and hence, he, or it, came to have, or became possessed of, such a thing.] b5: And صَارَ فِى أَرْضِ فَلَاةٍ [He became, or came to be, meaning he found himself, in a desert, or waterless, land]; i. q. وَقَعَ فِيهَا. (Msb in art. وقع.) And صَارَ فِى الرَّبِيعِ [He entered, lit. became in, the season called ربيع]; i. q. أَرْبَعَ [which is expl. in the S as signifying دَخَلَ فِى الرَّبِيعِ]. (K in art. ربع.) A2: صَيْرٌ signifies also The returning of seekers after herbage to the watering-places. (O, K.) And one says, صَارَ الرَّجُلُ, aor. ـِ [inf. n. صَيْرٌ,] The man stayed, or abode, at the water. (TA.) and صَارَ النَّاسُ المَآءَ The people stayed, or abode, at the water. (M, K, TA.)

(M.) b2: And in like manner, [i. e. as a dial. var. of صَارَهُ having for its aor. ـُ He made it to incline, or lean. (S.) You say, صَارَ وَجْهَهُ, aor. ـِ (M,) as also يَصُورُ, (M and K in art. صور,) He turned his face towards a person or thing. (M.) And صِرْتُ عُنُقَهُ I twisted his neck. (M.) [Respecting the phrase فَصِرْهُنَّ إِلَيْكَ in the Kur ii.

262, accord. to one reading, see 1 in art. صور.] b3: صَارَهُ, aor. ـِ inf. n. صَيْرٌ, signifies also حَبَسَهُ [He confined, restricted, &c., him, or it]. (Msb.) 2 صيّرهُ كَذَا He made him, or it, to be in such a state, or condition; or he made him, or it, to be such a thing; [as also ↓ أَصَارَهُ;] syn. جَعَلَهُ. (S.) You say, صَيَّرَنِى لَهُ عَبْدًا and ↓ أًصَارَنِى [He made me to be to him a slave]. (A.) b2: [And صَيَّرَهُ إِلَى

كَذَا and ↓ أَصَارَهُ He, or it, made, or caused, him, or it, to come, or to pursue a course that led, to such a state, or condition; brought, or reduced, him, or it, thereto.] 'Omeyleh El-Fezáree said to his paternal uncle Ibn-'Ankà, ↓ مَا الَّذِى أَصَارَكَ

إِلَى مَا أَرَى يَا عَمِّ [What hath made thee to come, or brought thee, or reduced thee, to the state, or condition, that I see, O my paternal uncle?]. (M.) [In this case, the ulterior state or condition is likened to a place: for] you say, صَيَّرَهُ إِلَيْهِ and ↓ أَصَارَهُ [meaning He, or it, made him to come, or brought him, to him, or it; i. e., to a person, or place, or to a state, or condition:] (M, K:) and صَيَّرَتْنِى إِلَيْهِ الحَاجَةُ and ↓ أَصَارَتْنِى [Want, or need, or necessity, made me to come, or brought me, to him, or it]. (A.) And [hence,] صَيَّرَ إِلَيْهِ الأَمْرَ He committed to him the thing, or affair; syn. فَوَّضَهُ اليه. (M in art. فوض.) [And صَيَّرَ لَهُ كَذَا He made such a thing to come to, betide, or befall, him, or it: and consequently, he made him, or it, to have, or become possessed of, such a thing.] b3: تَصْيِيرٌ is also by word, or covenant, as well as by deed. (Bd in ii. 20.) [You say, صَيَّرَهُ كَذَا meaning He asserted, or pronounced, him, or it, to be in such a state, or condition; or to be such a thing: in which case, also, it is syn. with جَعَلَهُ, whereby it is expl. in the S. And صَيَّرَ لَهُ كَذَا He asserted, or pronounced, such a thing to belong to him, or it; asserted, or pronounced, him, or it, to have such a thing; attributed to him, or it, such a thing: and appointed or assigned, to him, or it, such a thing.]4 أَصْيَرَ see 2, in six places.5 تصيّر أَبَاهُ He became like his father.

i. e., the dung of a bird is called its سَلْح; for the verb is there said to relate to a bird; though in truth it has a general application:]) or such as is thin, of any dung: (L, TA: [and this is the sense in which it is commonly known:]) and ↓ سُلَاحٌ signifies [the same: i. e.] excrement, ordure, or dung, (S, A, MA, L, K, KL,) of a human being, (KL,) or of a bird (MA) [and of any animal]: or thin excrement or dung: (MA:) this latter is said to be the correct meaning in a marginal note in a copy of the S: (TA:) the pl. of the former is سُلُوحٌ and سُلْحَانٌ. (L, TA.) [رَمَى بِسَلْحِهِ frequently occurs in the Lexicons &c., meaning He cast forth his excrement, or ordure; or properly, in a thin state.] يَا سَلْحَ الغُرَابِ [lit.

(S, K.) أَسْلَحُ مِنْ حُبَارَى [More wont to mute than a bustard] (Meyd, A, Mgh) and مِنْ دَجَاجَةٍ [than a domestic hen]: the former mutes in the time of fear; and the latter, in the time of security: (Meyd:) a prov.

إِطْرِيحْ [The tree of my father is the isleeh: froth upon the milk, and milk free from froth; and a long, or tall, hump: these are the consequences of pasturing upon it]: (S, * L:) or it is a certain herb, or leguminous plant, of those that are slender and soft (مِنْ أَحْرَارِ البُقُولِ), growing in the winter, that causes the camels to void سُلَاح [or thin excrement] when they eat much of it: or a certain herb (عُشْبَة), resembling the جِرْجِير [or rocket], growing upon tracts of sand such as are termed حُقُوف: or a certain kind of plant, growing conspicuously in plain, or soft, tracts, having a thin and delicate leaf, and a pericarp (سِنْفَة) stuffed with grains, or seeds, like those of the poppy; which is one of the plants of the rain of the صَيْف [here meaning spring (see زَمَنٌ)], and which causes the cattle to void سُلَاح: n. un. with ة: Aboo-Ziyád says that the places in which the اسليح grows are sands. (L.) مَسْلَحَةٌ A ثَغْر [or frontier of a hostile country]: (K:) or a place of arms or weapons, (Mgh,) like a ثَغْر and a مَرْقَب [which is an elevated place of observation], (S, Mgh, TA,) wherein are parties that watch the enemy, lest they should make an invasion at unawares, and , when they see them, inform their companions, in order that they may prepare themselves for them: (Nh, TA:) pl. مَسَالِحُ.

[Hence,] ذَا مِمَّا يَجْلِبُ الإِخْوَانَ (tropical:) [This is of the things that bring, draw, attract, or procure, brothers, or friends]. (A, TA.) And الدَّهْرِ ↓ جَلَبَتُهُ جَوَالِبُ (tropical:) [The calamities of time, or of fortune, or of fate, brought, drew, or attracted, him, or it]. (A, TA.) [Hence also, accord. to some,] لَا جَلَبَ وَ لَا جَنَبَ, a trad., explained as meaning, The owner of cattle shall not be required to drive them, or bring them, to the town, or country, in order that the collector may take from them the portion appointed for the poor-rate, but this shall be taken at the waters; and when the cattle are in the yards, they shall be left therein, and not brought forth to the place of pasture, for the collector to take that portion: or, as some say, ولا جنب means, nor shall one have a horse led by his side, in a race, in order that, when he draws near to the goal, he may tranfser himself to it, and so outstrip his fellow: and other explanations have been given: (Msb:) [accord. to some,] لا جلب here means, they shall not drive, or bring, their cattle to the collector of the portions appointed for the poor-rate in the place where he alights, but he shall himself come to their yards and take those portions: or [جلب here is from the verb جَلَبَ in a sense which will be explained below, and] the trad. relates to horse-racing, and means, one shall not cause his horse to be followed by a man crying out at it and chiding it; nor shall he have a horse without a rider led by his own horse, in order that, when he draws near to the goal, he may transfer himself to it, and outstrip upon it: (Mgh:) or الجَلَبُ, which is forbidden, means the collector's not coming to the people at their waters to take the portions appointed for the poor-rate, but ordering them to drive, or bring, their cattle to him: or it relates to contending for a stake, or wager, and means the mounting a man upon one's horse, and, when he has drawn near to the goal, following his horse and crying out at it, in order that it may outstrip; which is a kind of fraud: (S:) or it is used in both these cases: (A 'Obeyd: [his explanations are virtually the same as those in the S:]) or the meaning of the trad. [so far as the former clause of it is concerned] is, that the contributions to the poor-rate shall not be driven, or brought, to the waters nor to the great towns, but shall be given in their places of pasture: or it means, [or rather الجلب means,] the collector's alighting in a place, and then sending a person, or persons, to drive, or bring, to him the cattle from their places, that he may take the portion thereof appointed for the poor-rate: or it [relates to horse-racing, and] means the sending forth a horse in the racecourse, and a number of persons' congregating, and crying out at it, in order that it may be turned from its course: or a man's following his horse, and spurring on behind it, and chiding it, and crying out at it: (K, TA:) or the shaking a thing behind a horse that is backward in a race, that it may be urged on thereby, and outstrip: or one's riding a horse, and leading behind him another, to urge it on, in contending for a stake, or wager: or the crying out at a horse from behind, and urging it to outstrip.

A2: جَلَبُوا, aor. ـِ and جَلُبَ, (K,) [inf. n. جَلَبٌ, and perhaps جَلَبَةٌ also;] and ↓ جلّبوا; (S, K;) and ↓ اجلبوا, (K,) inf. n. إِجْلَابٌ; (Mgh;) [the second of which is the most common;] They raised cries, shouts, noises, a clamour, (S, Mgh, TA,) or confused cries or shouts or noises. (Mgh, K. *) And جَلَبَ عَلَي فَرَسِهِ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (S, Msb,) inf. n. جَلَبٌ, (S,) or جَلْبٌ, (Msb,) He chid, or urged on, his horse; as also ↓ جلّب and ↓ اجلب; (K;) the first, rare; the second and third, usual: (TA:) he cried out at his horse, (S, K,) from behind him, and urged him to outstrip [in a race], (S,) aor. ـُ and جَلِبَ; (K; but this explanation is erased in the copy of the K in its author's handwriting, as being a repetition; and rightly, accord. to MF; though this requires consideration; TA;) as also ↓ اجلب: (S:) he urged his horse to run, by striking, or goading, or by crying out, or the like; as also ↓ اجلب: or, as some say, he led behind his horse that he was riding another horse to urge on the former, in contending [in a race] for a stake, or wager; as is shown in an explanation of the tradition cited above, لَا جَلَبَ وَلَا جَنَبَ. (TA.) It is said in the Kur [xvii. 66], عَلَيْهِمْ بِخَيْلِكَ وَرَجْلِكَ ↓ وَأَجْلِبْ And raise thou confused cries against them, (Mgh,) or cry out against them, with thy forces riding and on foot.(Bd. But see another explanation in what follows.) And it is said in a wellknown prov., جَلَبَتْ جَلْبَةً ثُمَّ أَمْسَكَتْ It, i. e. a cloud (سَحَابَة), thundered, then refrained from raining: applied to a coward, who threatens, and then is silent: but accord. to some, it is with ح in the place of ج (MF. See art. حلب.) b2: [Hence,] جَلَبَ, aor. ـِ and جَلُبَ; and ↓ اجلب; He threatened with evil; (K, TA;) followed by an accus. (TA) [or, app., by عَلَى before the object]: or (so in the TA, but in some copies of the K “ and,”) he collected a company, a troop, or an army. (K, TA.) [It is said that] عَلَيْهِمْ ↓ وَأَجْلِبْ, in the Kur [xvii. 66], means And collect thou against them [thy forces], and threaten them with evil. (TA. But see another explanation above.) And عَلَيْهِ ↓ اجلبو signifies also They collected themselves together against him, (S, K, *) and aided one another; like احلبوا. (S.) b3: جَلَبَ عَلَيْهِ, aor. ـُ inf. n. جَلْبٌ, He committed a crime against him; or an offence for which he should be punished. (K, * TA.)

(S, L.) b2: And It (blood) dried; became dry; as also ↓ اجلب. (Lh, K.) A4: جَلِبَ, aor. ـَ It [app. a company or troop] assembled, or became collected together. (K.) 2 جَلَّبَ see 1, in two places.

A2: The inf. n. تَجْلِيبٌ also signifies The act of bringing together: or collecting. (KL.) 3 جَاْلَبَ [جالب is explained by Golius, as on the authority of the KL, as meaning He helped, or assisted: but this is a mistake for حالب; for I find مُحَالَبَةٌ explained by يارى كردن in a copy of the KL, and the order of the words there shows that it is not a mistranscriptiou for مجالبة.]4 اجلب: see 1, in eleven places, in the latter half of the paragraph.

A2: Also His camels brought forth males; (S, K;) because the males that they produce are driven, or brought, from one place to another, and sold; opposed to احلب “ his camels brought forth females: ” (S:) and his camel brought forth a male. (TA.) أَجْلَبْتَ وَلَا أَحْلَبْتَ May thy camels bring forth males, and may they not bring forth females, is a form of imprecation against a man, implying a wish that he may lose the milk [that he would have otherwise]. (TA.) A3: He aided, helped, or assisted, another. (S, K.) [So, too, احلب.]

A4: He put an amulet into a جُلْبَة [which must therefore signify the piece of skin in which an amulet is enclosed, as well as an amulet enclosed in a piece of skin: see مُجْلِبٌ]. (K.) b2: اجلب قَتَبَهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. إِجْلابٌ, (T,) He covered his قتب [or camel's saddle] (S, K) with a جُلْبَة, i. e., (S,) with a piece of fresh, moist skin, which he left upon it until it became dry [and tight]: (S, K: *) or he covered the head of his قتب with a piece of kid's, or lamb's, skin, and left it to dry upon it. (T.) 5 تَجَلَّبَ [تجلّب rendered by Golius Clamorem ac murmur excitavit, as on the authority of the K, I do not find in that lexicon nor in any other.]7 انجلب It [a camel, sheep, goat, horse, captive, or slave, or a number of camels &c., or any merchandise, (see 1, first sentence,)] was driven [or brought] from one place to another [or from one country or town to another, for the purpose of traffic]. (K.) 8 اجتلب: see 1, first and second sentences. b2: Also (assumed tropical:) He (a poet) took, or borrowed, from the poetry of another. (TA.) b3: And He sought or demanded [a thing]. (Har p. 44.) 10 استجلبهُ He sought, or demanded, or desired, that it [a camel, sheep, goat, horse, captive, or slave, or a number of camels &c., or any merchandise, (see 1, first sentence,)] should be driven [or brought] from one place to another [in which he was, or from one country or town to another, for sale]. (K.) b2: See also 1, first sentence. R.
