Many of the learned say that ↓ انعدّ should not be [thus] used as a quasi-pass. of عَدَّهُ: it is said to be vulgar, or bad. (MF.) A2: اعتدّهُ: see 1, first and last sentences. b2: One says also اعتدّ بِهِ (S, O, Msb) meaning He included it in a numbering, or reckoning. (Msb.)

(Msb.) One says, أَخَذَ لِلْأَمْرِ عُدَّتَهُ and عَتَادَهُ [He took, for the affair, his apparatus, &c.; or he prepared, or provided, himself for the affair]: both signify the same. (S, O.) b2: Also, (S, O,) and ↓ عِدٌّ, this latter of the dial. of Temeem, (A'Obeyd, Msb,) A state of preparation. (A'Obeyd, S, O, Msb.)

(TA.) ↓ مَا أَكْثَرَ عَدِيدَهُمْ means عَدَدَهُمْ [i. e. How great is their number!]. (A.) Zj says that عَدَدٌ is sometimes used in the sense of an inf. n.; as in the phrase in the Kur [xviii. 10], سِنِينَ عَدَدًا: but many say that it is in this instance used in its proper sense, meaning مَعْدُودَةً [i. e. numbered], and is made masc. because سِنِين is syn. with أَعْوَام. (Msb.) In the phrase وَأَحْصَى

كُلَّ شَىْءٍ عَدَدًا, in the Kur [lxxii. last verse], it is used in its proper sense of مَعْدُودًا, and is put in the accus. case as a denotative of state; or it is used in this case as an inf. n. (IAth, O.) b2: It signifies also The years of a man's life, which one numbers, or counts. (IAar, O, K. [In the CK, after the words وَالعَدَدُ المعدُودُ, a و should be inserted.]) Hence the phrase رَقَّ عَدَدُهُ The years of his life, which he numbered, became few, the greater part having passed. (IAar, O.) عِدَدٌ: see the next paragraph.

عِدَادٌ an inf. n. of 3 [q. v.]. (TA.) b2: يَوْمُ العِدَادِ [as expl. by Sh: see 3, first sentence. b3: Also] The day of giving: (S, O:) العِدَاد signifies العَطَآء (S, O, K) in this phrase. (S, O.) b4: And i. q. يَوْمُ العَرْضِ [which generally means The day of the last judgment]. (TA.) b5: And one says, أَتَيْتُ فُلَانًا فِى يَوْمِ عِدَادٍ meaning I came to such a one on a Friday (يوم حُمُعَةٍ), or on a Minor Festival (يوم فِطْرٍ), or on a Great Festival (يوم أَضْحَى). (O, K, * TA.) b6: And لَقِيتُ فُلَانًا عِدَادَ الثُّرَيَّا, (S, O, K,) or عِدَادَ الثُّرَيَّا القَمَرَ, and فِى

نُزُولِ القَمَرِ الثُّرَيَّا, (TA,) meaning I met such a one once in the month: (S, O, K:) because the moon makes its abode in الثريّا [the Pleiades, its third Mansion,] once in every month: (S, O:) IB [understood the meaning to be, once in the year; for he] asserts that, correctly, J should have said, because the moon is in conjunction with الثريّا once in every year, and that is on the fifth day of [the Syrian month] Ádhár [corresponding to March O. S.], agreeably with what is said in a verse of Ibn-Holáhil which will be found cited in what follows: but [this verse evidently relates to what was the case in its author's time; for it is well known that] the moon traverses the firmament once in every month, and is every night in a [different], Mansion, and it is therefore in [the Mansion of] الثريّا once in every month. (L, TA.) [Accord. to some,] one says, لَا آتِيكَ

إِلَّا عِدَادَ القَمَرِ الثُّرَيَّا, meaning I will not come to thee save once in the year: because the moon makes its abode in الثريّا but once in the year: (A:) and مَا يَأْتِينَا فُلَانٌ إِلَّا عِدَادَ الثُّرَيَّا القَمَرَ, and إِلَّا قِرَانَ القَمَرِ الثُّرَيَّا, meaning Such a one comes not to us save once in the year: and مَا أَلْقَاهُ إِلَّا الثُّرَيَّا القَمَرَ ↓ عِدَّةَ, and الّا عِدَادَ الثُّرَيَّا القَمَرَ, and الّا عِدَادَ الثُّرَيَّا مِنَ القَمَرِ, meaning I do not meet him save once in the year: (TA:) [but these explanations are probably founded upon a want of due consideration of a statement which here follows:] after citing this verse of Aseed, or Useyd, or Useiyid, [written in the TA اسيد,] Ibn-Holáhil, or Ibn-El-Holáhil, [thus differently written in different places,] إِذَا مَا قَارَنَ القَمَرُ الثُّرَيَّا لِثَالِثَةِ فَقَدْ ذَهَبَ الشِّتَآءُ [When the moon is in conjunction with the Pleiades in a third night, then winter has departed], AHeyth said, [as though what was the case at a particular period of a cycle were the case generally,] the moon is in conjunction with الثريّا only in a third night from the new moon, [meaning only once in the year in the third night,] and that is in the beginning of spring and the end of winter. (TA.) b7: And عِدَادٌ and ↓ عِدَدٌ, (S, O, K,) the latter a contraction of the former, used by poetic license, (S, O,) signify A paroxysm of pain which a person stung or bitten by a venomous reptile suffers on the completion of a year from the day on which he was stung or bitten: (S, O, K: *) a paroxysm of pain occurring at a certain period: (A:) a paroxysm such as that of a tertian, or quartan, fever; and the pain of poison which kills at a certain period: and the regular period of the return of a fever is called its عِدَاد. (TA.) One says, أَتَتْهُ اللَّسْعَةُ لِعِدَادٍ The pain of the venomous sting, or bite, returned to him with vehemence at the expiration of a year. (S, O, * K.) And بِهِ مَرَضٌ عِدَادٌ He has a malady that intermits and returns. (A.) And عِدَادُ السَّلِيمِ is said to signify A period of seven days from that on which the person has received a venomous sting or bite: when it has expired, his recovery is hoped for: as long as it has not expired, one says, هُوَ فِى

عِدَادِهِ. (A, TA.) [See also 3.] b8: عِدَادٌ signifies also The time of death. (O, K.) b9: And A day, or night, when the family of a person deceased assemble together to wail for him. (ISk, TA.) b10: And A touch of insanity or diabolical possession: (S, O, K:) or an affection resembling insanity or diabolical possession, that takes a man at certain times. (Az, TA.) One says, بِالرَّجُلِ عِدَادٌ In the man is a touch of insanity [&c.]. (S, O.) b11: And The twanging of a bow; (S, O, K; *) and so ↓ عَدِيدٌ. (O, K.) b12: See also the next paragraph, in five places: b13: and see عَدِيدَةٌ.

عَدِيدٌ: see عَدَدٌ, in three places. b2: Also A man who introduces himself into a tribe, to be numbered, or reckoned, as belonging to it, but has no kindred in it: (Msb:) or عَدِيدٌ قَوْمٍ signifies one who is numbered, or reckoned, among a people, (K, TA,) but is not with them (معهم [app. a mistranscription for مِنْهُمْ of them]); as also ↓ عِدَادٌ. (TA.) One says, فُلَانٌ عَدِيدُ بَنِى فُلَانٍ, (S, Mgh, O, Msb,) and ↓ مِنْ عِدَادِهِمْ, (Msb,) Such a one is numbered, or reckoned, among the sons of such a one. (S, Mgh, O, Msb.) And فِى بَنِى ↓ عِدَادُهُ فُلَانٍ He is numbered among the sons of such a one in the دِيوَان [or register of soldiers or pensioners]. (S, O, K.) And أَهْلِ ↓ فُلَانٌ فِى عِدَادِ الخَيْرِ Such a one is numbered, or reckoned, among the people of goodness, or of wealth. (S, O.) b3: And A like, or an equal; [originally, in number;] (A, O, K;) as also ↓ عِدٌّ and ↓ عِدَادٌ: (IAar, O, K:) pl. of the first عَدَائِدُ; and of the second and third أَعْدَادٌ. (TA.) One says, هٰذِهِ الدَّرَاهِمُ عَدِيدُ هٰذِهِ These dirhems are equal to these. (A, * TA.) And هُمْ عَدِيدُ الحَصَى وَالثَّرَى They are equal in multitude, or quantity, to the pebbles and the moist earth; (S, * O, * TA;) i. e. they are innumerable. (TA.) The saying of Aboo-Duwád, describing a mare, وَطِمِرَّةٍ كَهِرَاوَةِ الأَعْزَابِ لَيْسَ لَهَا عَدَائِدْ Th explains by saying that he likens her to the staff of the wayfarer, because of her being smooth, as though عدائد here meant knots: [so that, accord. to him, we should render the verse thus: and compact in make, or swift and excellent, like the staff of those who go far away with their camels to pasture, having no knots:] but Az says that the meaning is, [like Hiráwet-el-Aazáb (a celebrated mare)], having no equals. (TA.) A2: See also عِدَادٌ, last sentence but one.

عَدِيدَةٌ A lot, portion, or share: (IAar, O, K:) like غَدِيدَةٌ: (IAar, O:) pl. عَدَائِدُ; (IAar, O, TA;) with which ↓ عِدَادٌ is syn.: and عَدَائِدُ signifies also property divided into shares; and an inheritance [so divided]. (TA.) Lebeed says, تَطِيرُ عَدَائِدُ الأَشْرَاكِ شَفْعًا وَوِتْرًا وَالزَّعَامَةُ لِلْغُلَامِ The portions of property and inheritance of the sharers fly away in the course of time, two together and singly; but the lordship, or mastery, is still remaining for the boy: (IAar, TA:) or the poet means those who share with him [i. e. with the boy] (مَنْ يُعَادُّهُ) in the inheritance: or it (عدائد) is from عُدَّةُ المَالِ [i. e. what one prepares for a future time, of property]: (S, O:) for عدائد, in this verse, some read غَدَائِدُ. (L in art. غد [q. v.]) [See also زَعَامَةٌ.]

عِدَّانٌ and عَدَّانٌ The time, or period, of a thing; (IAar, K, TA;) as in the phrase أَنَا عَلَى عَدَّانِ ذٰلِكَ I was at the time, or period, of that; (IAar, TA;) and in the saying جِئْتُ عَلَى عَدَّانِ تَفْعَلُ ذٰلِكَ I came at the time of thy doing that; (TA;) and thus in the saying كَانَ ذٰلِكَ عَلَى عَدَّانِ فُلَانٍ

That was in the time of such a one: (S, O:) or the first, and best, or most excellent, part, (K, TA,) and the most, (TA,) of a thing; (K, TA;) accord. to Az, from أَعَدَّهُ “ he prepared it; ” and so in the saying كَانَ ذٰلِكَ فِى عَدَّانِ شَبَابِهِ and مُلْكِهِ [That was in the first and best and chief part of his young manhood and of his dominion]. (TA.) [See also art. عدن.]

A2: عِدَّانٌ as a contraction of عِتْدَانٌ: see عَتُودٌ, of which it is a pl. عَدْعَدَةٌ inf. n. of عَدْعَدَ [q. v.]. (IAar, O.) A2: And The cry, or crying, of the sand-grouse (القَطَا): (A 'Obeyd, O, K:) app. onomatopoetic. (A 'Obeyd, O.) جَيْشٌ أَعَدُّ An army in the most complete state of preparation, or equipment. (TA, from a trad.) مَعَدٌّ The side (ISd, TA) of a man and of a horse &c.: (L in art. معد [in which it is fully explained]:) المَعَدَّانِ signifies the places of the two boards of the saddle (S, * O, * A, K, * TA) upon the two sides of the horse. (A, TA.) One says, عَرِقَ مَعَدَّاهُ [The parts of his sides beneath the two boards of the saddle sweated]. (A, TA.) اللِّبْسَةُ المَعَدِّيَّةُ The mode of dress of the sons of Ma'add, which was coarse and rude. (S, from a trad. [See Q. Q. 2.]) مَعْدُودٌ [meaning Numbered, counted, reckoned, or computed,] is applied to any number, little or large; but مَعْدُودَاتٌ more particularly denotes few; and so does every pl. formed by the addition of ا and ت, as دُرَيْهِمَاتٌ and حَمَامَاتٌ; though it is allowable to use such a pl. to denote muchness. (Zj, TA.) الأَيَّامُ المَعْدُودَاتُ signifies The days called أَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) the three days next after the day of the sacrifice [which is the tenth of Dhu-l-Hijjeh]; thus called because they are few. (TA.) and one also says دَرَاهِمُ مَعْدُودَةٌ [lit. Numbered, or counted, dirhems] as meaning a few dirhems. (TA.) المُعَيْدِىُّ is the dim. of المَعَدِّىُّ, (S, O, K,) meaning He whose origin is referred to Ma'add, (S, O, TA,) and is originally المُعَيْدِدِىُّ, then المُعَيْدِّىُّ, and then المُعَيْدِىُّ, (IDrst, TA,) thus pronounced without the teshdeed of the د because the double teshdeed, (IDrst, S, O, K, TA,) that of the د with that of the ى after it, (IDrst, TA,) is found difficult of pronunciation, (IDrst, S, O, K, TA,) combined with the ى that denotes the dim.: (S, O, K:) it is thus pronounced in the prov., أَنْ تَسْمَعَ بِالْمُعَيْدِىِّ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ تَرَاهُ [Thy hearing of the Mo'eydee is better than thy seeing him]: (Ks, S, O:) or تَسْمَعُ بالمعيدىّ خير من ان تراه, (K, TA,) which means the same, the ع in تسمع being pronounced with damm because أَنْ is suppressed before it; but some pronounce it with nasb, regarding أَنْ as understood, though this is anomalous: (TA:) or تَسْمَعُ بِالْمُعَيْدِىِّ لَا

أَنْ تَرَاهُ; as though meaning hear thou of the Mo'eydee, but do not see him: (ISk, S, O, K:) of which three variants, the second is that which is best known: so says A 'Obeyd: (TA:) the prov. is applied to him who is of good repute, but whose outward appearance is contemned. (S, O, K, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 223.]) مُعْتَدٌّ بِهِ A thing included in a numbering, or reckoning. (Msb.) [And hence, A thing of which account is made; that is accounted a matter of importance. See the verb.]

مُسْتَعِدَّاتٌ is used in a verse of Ibn-Mukbil as meaning The legs of a she-camel. (AA, TA voce أَطَامِيمُ, q. v.)

[But this admits of another meaning, as will be seen, under the word حَدَدٌ, below.]) b2: [Hence,] A restrictive ordinance, or statute, of God, respecting things lawful and things unlawful: pl. حُدُودٌ. (L.) The حُدُود of God are of two kinds: first, those ordinances prescribed to men (T, Mgh, L) respecting eatables and drinkables and marriages &c.; what are lawful thereof and what are unlawful: (T, L:) the second kind, castigations, or punishments, prescribed, or appointed, to be inflicted upon him who does that which he has been forbidden to do; (T, Mgh, L;) as the حدّ of the thief, which is the cutting off of his right hand for stealing a thing of the value of a quarter of a deenár or more; and that of the fornicator or fornicatress, which is flogging with a hundred stripes and banishment for a year; and that of the adulterer or adulteress, which is stoning; and that of the person who [falsely] charges an honest or a married woman with adultery, which is flogging with eighty stripes [as is also that of the person who has committed the crime of drunkenness]: (T, L:) the first kind are called حدود because they denote limits which God has forbidden to transgress: the second, because they prevent one's committing again those acts for which they are appointed as punishments; (T, Mgh, L;) or because the limits thereof are determined: (Mgh:) the latter kind of حدّ is also explained as being that [castigation, or punishment,] which prevents the criminal from returning to his crime, and prevents others from committing his crime. (L, K. *) لَوْ رَأَيْتَهُ عَلَى حَدٍّ, in a saying of ' Omar, means Hadst thou seen him engaged in an affair requiring the infliction of the حدّ. (Mgh.) b3: A bar, an obstruction, a partition, or a separation, (S, A, Mgh, L, Msb, * K,) between two things, (S, A, L, K,) or between two places, (Mgh,) [or between two persons,] to prevent their commixture, or confusion, or the encroachment of one upon the other: (L:) an inf. n. used as a subst.: (Mgh:) pl. حُدُودٌ.

حن

1 حَنَّ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَنِينٌ, He was, or became, affected with [a yearning, longing, or desire, or] an intense emotion of grief or of joy; as also ↓ استحنّ and ↓ تحانّ. (K.) [See an instance of its denoting an emotion of joy voce حَنَّانٌ.] Yousay, حَنَّ إِلَيْهِ, aor. and inf. n. as above, He, or his soul, yearned towards, longed for, or desired, him, or it. (S.) And حَنَّ إِلَى وَطَنِهِ He yearned towards, longed for, or desired, his home. (TA.) And تَحِنَّ إِلَى زَوْجِهَا الأَوَّلِ [She yearns towards her first, or former, husband]. (TA.) And حَنَّتْ, inf. n. as above, She (a woman) yearned towards, longed for, or desired, her child, or children. (Msb.) So, too, one says of a she-camel, meaning She yearned towards, longed for, or desired, her home, or her young one; and in like manner, of a pigeon: but in most instances it means she (a camel) yearned with a cry, or uttered a cry when yearning [or a yearning cry or the cry produced by yearning], towards her young one or her companions: or she uttered a cry with emotion after her young one: in its primary sense, she reiterated her [yearning] cry after her young one: but when you say, حَنَّ قَلْبِى إِلَيْهِ, you mean My heart yearned towards, longed for, or desired, him, or it, without the uttering of a cry or sound. (TA.) They said also, لَاأَفْعَلُهُ حَتَّى يَحِنَّ الضَّبُّ فِى أَثَرِ الإِبِلِ الصَّادِرَةِ [I will not do it until the lizard called ضبّ yearn after the camels returning from the water; meaning I will never do it]: this is only a prov.; for the ضبّ has no حَنِين nor does it ever go to the water. (TA.) [and حنَّ العُودُ, aor. and inf. n. as above, (assumed tropical:) The lute produced plaintive sounds: or excited lively emotions of sadness, or of mirth: see حَنَّانٌ. and in like manner one says of a musical reed: see مُثَقَّب.] And حَنَّتِ القَوْسُ, (K,) aor. as above, (S,) and so the inf. n., (TA,) (assumed tropical:) The bow [twanged, or] made a sound (K, TA) when its string had been pulled and then let go. (S.) And حَنَّتِ الطَّسْتُ إِذَا نُقِرَتْ (tropical:) [The brazen basin rang when it was knocked, or pecked]. (TA.) And حَنَّتِ السَّارِيَةُ [The mast creaked, or made a creaking sound]. (TA in art. صر.) And حَنَّ قِدْحُ لَيْسَ مِنْهَا (assumed tropical:) [An arrow of those used in the game called الــمَيْسِــر produced a sound: it was not of them]: a prov., applied to a man who ascribes to himself a false origin, or who arrogates to himself that to which he has no relation: by the قدح is meant one of the arrows of the ميســر; for when this is not of the same substance as the others, and is made to vibrate, it produces a sound different from the sounds of the others, and is known thereby. (TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 341.]) And حَنَّتِ الرِّيحُ and ↓ استحنّت (assumed tropical:) [The wind made a plaintive, or moaning, or perhaps a shrill, sound; made a sound like the حَنِين of camels: see حَنُونٌ]: both signify the same. (TA.) [See also حَنِينٌ, below.] b2: حَنَّ عَلَيْهِ, (S, Msb, TA,) aor. as above, (S, Msb,) inf. n. حَنَانٌ (S, Msb, K *) and حَنَّةٌ (Msb, TA *) and حَنٌّ, (K, * TA,) He was merciful, compassionate, or pitiful, towards him, or it; (S, Msb, K, * TA:) as also ↓ تحنّن: (S, K:) he was, or became, favourably inclined towards him, or it; (Msb;) and so ↓ تحنّن: (TA:) he was, or became, affectionate, or pitiful, or compassionate, towards him; (K, * TA;) as also ↓ حَنْحَنَ. (IAar, Az, K.) and عَلَى وَلَدِهَا ↓ تَحَنَّنَتْ She (a camel, and a ewe or goat,) became favourably inclined, or compassionate, towards her young one. (Lh, TA.) b3: See also 2. b4: حَنَّ عَنِّى, aor. ـُ means صَدَّ; (S;) i. e. He turned away from me, avoided me, or shunned me: so that it is anomalous; for by rule the aor. should be حَنِّ; and it is not mentioned among the exceptions [to the rule applying to a case of this kind]. (MF, TA.) [But it appears from what here follows that صَدَّ may perhaps be here meant to be understood in its trans. sense.]

A2: حَنَّهُ, (K,) [aor. ـُ as is shown below,] inf. n. حَنٌّ, (TA,) signifies صَدَّهُ and صَرَفَهُ [He turned him, or it, away, or back]. (K, TA.) Yousay, حُنَّ عَنِّى شَرَّكَ, inf. n. حَنٌّ, Turn thou away, or back, from me thy evil, or mischief. (K.) and مَا تَحُنُّنِى شَيْئًا مِنْ شَرِّكَ Thou dost not turn away, or back, from me aught of thy evil, or mischief (S.) A3: [حُنَّ, inf. n. حَنٌّ, app. He was, or became, possessed by a demon, or by one of the tribe or kind or class termed الحِنّ; and hence, he was, or became, mad, or insane: for] حَنٌّ is syn. with جُنُونٌ; (TA as from the K; [but not in the CK nor in my MS. copy of the K;]) whence مَحْنُونٌ applied to a man [as meaning مَجْنُونٌ]. (TA.) 2 حَنَّّ [حنّنهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ, accord. to modern usage, and perhaps classical also, He, or it, caused him to be merciful, compassionate, pitiful, or favourably inclined, towards another.]

A2: حَمَلَ فَحَنَّنَ He charged, or made an assault or attack, and was cowardly, and retreated. (K, TA.) b2: مَا حَنَّنَ عَنِّى He did not turn away from me; did not leave, or relinquish, me. (TA.) [And ↓ احنّ, or ↓ حَنَّ, seems to have a similar meaning: for] you say, أَثَرٌ لَا يُحِنُّ عَنِ الجِلْدِ A mark that does not go away from the skin: or, accord. to Th, who does not explain it, it is يَحِنُّ. (TA.) A3: حَنَّنَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ The tree blossomed, or flowered: (K:) and in like manner one says of a herb. (TA.) 4 احنّ القَوْسَ He made the bow to [twang, or] give a sound, [by pulling, and then letting go, the string.] (K.) A2: And احنّ He (a man. TA) did wrong, committed a mistake, or missed [the object of his aim]. (K.) b2: See also 2.5 تَحَنَّّ see 1, in three places.6 تَحَاْنَّ see 1, first sentence.10 إِسْتَحْنَ3َ see 1, in two places.

(S, K.) حَنَّةٌ: see حَنَانٌ. b2: It is said in a prov., لَا تَعْدَمُ نَاقَةٌ مِنْ أُمِّهَا حَنَّةً, and ↓ حَنِينًا, meaning [The she-camel will not be without] likeness [to her mother]: and one says of a man who resembles another man, and of any one who resembles his father and his mother, لَا تَعْدَمُ أَدْمَآءُ مِنْ أُمِّهَا حَنَّةً

(Az, TA.) وَحَنَانًا مِنْ لَدُنَّا, in the Kur [xix. 14], respecting which I 'Ab is related by 'Ikrimeh to have said, I know not what is الحَنَانُ, means And mercy from us. (S, TA.) The Arabs say, حَنَانَكَ يَا رَبِّ and حَنَانَيْكَ [I beg thy mercy, O my Lord]: both signify the same; i. e. رَحْمَتَكَ: (S:) the latter is the expression commonly used: (A 'Obeyd, in a marginal note in a copy of the S:) or [rather] the latter means have mercy on me time after time, and with mercy after mercy: (K, * TA:) it is a dualized inf. n., of which the verb is not expressed; like لَبَّيْكَ and سَعْدَيْكَ: (TA:) or it means [let thy mercy be continuous to me;] whenever I receive mercy and good from Thee, let it not cease, but be conjoined with other mercy from Thee: (ISd, TA:) the dual form is not to be understood as restricting the signification to duality: (Suh, TA:) the word is not used in this form otherwise than as a prefixed noun: (Sb, TA:) but sometimes they said حَنًانًا, in the sing., without prefixing it. (ISd, TA.) They said also, سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ وَحَنَانَيْهِ meaning [I extol, or celebrate, or declare, the absolute purity, or perfection, or glory, of God,] and I beg his mercy; like as they said, سُبْحَانَ اللّٰهِ وَرَيْحَانَهُ. (TA.) And حَنَانَ اللّٰهِ as meaning مَعَاذَ اللّٰهِ [I seek the protection, or preservation, of God].
