(K, TA.) It is said in a trad., مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ تُمْخَضُ مَخْضًا; (L;) or تُمْخَضُ مَخْضَ الزّقّ; (O;) (assumed tropical:) [A bier with a corpse was conveyed past him] being shaken, or agitated, quickly; (L, TA;) or being shaken, or agitated, vehemently [like as the milkskin is shaken, &c.] (O, TA.)

'Amr Ibn-Hassán, one of the Benu-l-Hárith-Ibn-Hemmám-Ibn-Murrah, says, (Seer, S,) but the saying is also ascribed to Sahm Ibn-Khálid Ibn-'Abd-Allah Esh-Sheybánee, and to Khálid Ibn-Hikk Esh-Sheybánee, (TA,) المَنُونُ لَهُ بِيَوْمٍ ↓ تَمَخَّضَتِ

أَنَى وَلِكُلِّ حَامِلَةٍ تَمَامُ meaning [Time, or fortune,] was pregnant with a day for him, of which the time of birth had come: [for for every one that is pregnant there is a term of completion.] (S.) 2 مَخَّضَ see مَخِضَتْ.4 امخض اللَّبَنُ The milk attained to the proper time for [its being churned, or] having its butter taken, or extracted. (S, A, Msb.) In the O and K, it is made to signify the same as امتخض: but it seems that Sgh has inadvertently omitted, after it, the words حَانَ لَهُ أَنْ يُمْخَضَ, and that the author of the K has copied him without referring to other lexicons. (TA.) b2: Also امخض, (K,) said of a man, (TA,) (tropical:) He had his she-camels taken with the pains of parturition; (K, TA;) and his she-camel, in like manner. (TA.) 5 تمخّض It (milk) was, or became, agitated in the مِمْخَضَة; (S, A, * TA;) as also ↓ امتخض. (S, O, K.) [See also 4.] b2: It (milk) had its butter taken.

(S, TA.) b4: See also مَخِضَتْ and what follows it, to the end of the paragraph.8 إِمْتَخَضَ see 5, in two places: b2: and see مَخِضَتْ.10 استمخض اللَّبَنُ The milk was slow in becoming thick and fit for churning, and its butter would hardly, if at all, come forth: such is the best of milk, because its butter is in it. (A.) b2: Also, The milk was slow in acquiring flavour after it had been collected in the skin. (TA.) مَخْضٌ: see مَخِيضٌ.

مَخَاضٌ (assumed tropical:) The pains of parturition; (S, Msb;) as also ↓ مِخَاضٌ. (Msb.) A2: Applied to she-camels, (tropical:) Pregnant: (Az, As, S, ISd, A, Msb, K, &c.:) used in this sense as an epithet of good omen, whence they augur that their young ones will become agitated in their bellies at the time of parturition: (ISd:) having their young in their bellies: (M, TA:) or such as are called عِشَار, that have been ten months pregnant: (Th, K:) but ISd says, I have not found this explanation of مخاض on any authority beside that of Th: (TA:) [see also عُشَرَآءُ:] it has no proper sing: (S:) a single one is termed خَلِفَةٌ, (Az, As, S, A, &c,) which is extr. (K, TA) with respect to rule: (TA:) or مَخَاضٌ signifies, or it signifies also, (accord. to different copies of the K,) she-camels in the state in which they are from the time when the stallion is sent among them (ISd, K) until he brays (حَتَّى يَهْدِرَ), or, accord. to another relation, until they are left (حتّى تُغْدَرَ), i.e., (ISd,) until he ceases (حتّى

يَنْقَطِعَ, in the copies of the K, erroneously, حتى تنقطع, TA) from covering: (ISd, K:) a pl. (K) having no sing. (ISd, K.) b2: Hence, (S,) اِبْنُ مَخَاضٍ (tropical:) A young male camel, which, (As, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) having completed a year (As, S, Mgh) from the day of its birth, (As,) has entered upon the second year: (As, S, Mgh, Msb, K:) because his mother, (S, IAth, Mgh, K,) from whom he has been separated, (S,) has become adjoined to the مَخَاض, (S, IAth, Mgh, K,) or pregnant camels, (IAth, K,) whether she have conceived or not; (S, IAth, * K; *) for they used to make the stallion-camels to cover the females a year after these had brought forth, (IAth, K, *) in order that their young ones might become strong, so that they conceived in the second year: (IAth:) or because its mother has been covered, and has conceived, and become adjoined to the مَخَاض, i.e., to the pregnant camels; and this appellation it bears until it has completed the second year; but when it has entered upon the third, it is called اِبْنُ لَبُونٍ: (Msb:) or a young male camel when his mother has conceived: (K:) or whose mother has become pregnant: or when the she-camels among whom is his mother have become pregnant, though she have not become so: (IAth, K:) the female is called بِنْتُ مَخَاضٍ; (IAth, Msb, K;) or اِبْنَةُ مَخَاضٍ: (S:) the pl., (S, Msb, K,) of both the male and female appellations, (Msb,) is بَنَاتُ مَخَاضٍ, (S, Msb, K,) only; like بَنَاتُ لَبُونٍ and بَنَاتُ آوَى. (S.) Sometimes one adds to it the article ال, (Msb, K,) saying, اِبْنُ المَخَاضِ: (Msb:) [for] ابن مخاض is indeterminate; and when you desire to make it determinate, you affix the article ال, as above; but this only makes it determinate as a generic appellation. (S.) مِخَاضٌ: see مَخَاضٌ.

مَخُوضٌ: see مَاخِضٌ, in two places.

(S.) مِمْخَضَةٌ: see what next precedes.

مِمْخَاضٌ (assumed tropical:) A she-camel having a quick flow of milk. (JK.) مَمْخُوضٌ: see مَخِيضٌ.

مُسْتَمْخِضٌ Milk slow in becoming thick and fit for churning: (K:) or that hardly, if at all, becomes so; and when it has become so, is churned; and this is the best of the milk of ewes or goats, because its butter is destroyed (استهلك) in it. (TA.) [But see 10.]

(S, K.) 2 نَسَّاَ see 1.4 أَنْسَاَ see 1. b2: انسأهُ He granted him a delay of payment, or granted him credit, in a sale, or in the case of a debt. (A.) b3: أَنْسَأْتُ سُرْبَتِى I made my way to lead me far off. (S.) [See art. سرب.]5 تَنَسَّاَ see 8.8 انتسأ It was postponed, or delayed; syn. تَأَخَّرَ.

(S.) انْتَسُوا and تَنَسَّوا occur in two readings of a trad., for انْتَسِئُوا, (which is the correct reading,) in this sense. (TA.) [Hence it appears that ↓ تنسّأ, accord. to some, also signifies he retired, &c.]10 استنسأهُ He asked him to postpone or to grant him a delay in, the payment of his debt. (S, K.) [See also 1.] b2: استنسأهُ البَيْعَ He asked him to make the sale to be on credit, or for payment at a future period.

[of نسء] أَنْسَآءٌ and نُسُوْءٌ: and نِسْوَةٌ نِسَآءٌ is also said; and sometimes the sing. (نَسْءٌ), being originally an inf. n., is used as a pl. (TA.) A2: نَسْءٌ and ↓ نَسِىْءٌ Thin, watery, milk: (K:) or milk mixed with water. (T, S.) [See 1.] b2: Also, both words, (TA,) or the former only; (K, MF;) but ↓ نِسِىْءٌ is quoted in this sense, from IAar, who is said to have pronounced it thus, erroneously, for نَسِىْءٌ; (TA;) Wine; (IAar;) drink that dispels the reason. (K.) A3: نَسْءٌ Fatness: or its commencement; (K;) its completeness, (consequent upon eating dry food, being called إِقْتِرَارٌ. (S.) b2: جَرَى النَّسْءُ فى

نُسْءٌ and نَسُوْءٌ and نُسُوْءٌ and نَسِىْءٌ and نِسِىْءٌ: see نَسْءٌ.

نَسَآءٌ Length of life. (Akh, S, K.) b2: The Fakeeh of the Arabs [El-Hárith Ibn-Keledeh, as said in the Mz, close of 39th نوع, where the following is quoted,] says, مَنْ سَرَّهُ النَّسَآءُ وَلَا نَسَآءَ فَلْيُخَفِّفِ الرِّدَآءَ وَلْيُبَاكِرِ الغَدَآءَ وَلْيُؤَخِّرِ العَشَآءَ وَلْيُقِلَّ غِشْيَانَ النِّسَآءِ [Let him whom length of life rejoiceth (but there is no long endurance in life) lighten his debts, and make his morning-meal early, and delay his evening-meal, and take little enjoyment in women]: (S, * TA:) الرداء here means debt. (T, M, TA, in art. ردى, where this saying is cited with some variations.) نَسِىْءٌ, of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, (S,) A month which the Arabs, in the time of paganism, postponed: (K:) the doing of which is forbidden in the Kur, ix. 37. (S.) b2: Also, as an inf. n. of نَسَأَ, (which it is also said to be in the L,) The postponing of a month: i. e., the postponing of the sacredness of a month; transferring it to another month. When the Arabs returned from Mina, [after the accomplishment of the pilgrimage,] it was customary for a man of the tribe of Kináneh to arise and say, أَنَا الَّذِى لَا يُرَدُّ لِى قَضَآءٌ [“ I am he whose decree is not to be rejected ”]; (S;) or إِنِّى لَا أُحَابُ وَلَا أُعَابُ وَلَا يُرَدُّ قَوْلِى, or ولا يردّ مَا قَضَيْتُ بِهِ; [“ Verily I am not to be accused of a sin, nor am I to be charged with a fault, nor is my saying, (or decree,) to be rejected; ”] (TA;) whereupon they would say, أَنْسِئْنَا شَهْرًا [“ Postpone for us a month ”]; i. e., “ Postpone for us the sacredness of El-Mo- harram, and transfer it to Safar: ” for they disliked that three months during which they might not make predatory expeditions should come upon them consecutively, as their subsistence was obtained by such expeditions: so he made ElMoharram free from restriction to them. (S.) [But this, as appears from what is said in the Kur, ix. 37, was not done every year.] The tribes of Teiyi and Khath'am did not observe the sacred months; therefore the نَاسِئ (or postponer) proclaimed it lawful to slay them therein, when they were aggressors. (TA.) b3: [The term نَسِىْء appears also to have been applied to The postponement of the time of the pilgrimage; which was another custom of the Pagan Arabs, mentioned under this word in the TA.] The Arabs, liking that the day of their return from pilgrimage should always be at one season of the year, postponed it every year eleven days; at the same time keeping sacred the two months in which the pilgrimage took place, and the month next after those two, and also the month of Rejeb, at whatever season this fell. (TA.) [For the same purpose, at one time, they used to intercalate a month in the third and sixth and eight of every eight years. See Kur, ix. 36, where the prohibition of this custom is implied; and Sale's Prel. Disc., § vii.]. b4: See نَسْءٌ. b5: نَسِىْءٌ (K, TA) and ↓ نَسِيْئَةٌ and ↓ نُسْأَةٌ, (S, K,) like كُلْأَةٌ, (S,) A postponement, or delay, as to the time of the payment of a debt, or of the price of a thing sold, &c. (S, K, TA.) The first is a subst.; (K;) and also an inf. n.; (L;) [and each of the others seems to be sometimes used as such]. b6: ↓ بَاعَهُ بِنَسِيْئَةٍ, and ↓ بِنُسْأَةٍ, (as also بِكُلْأَةٍ, S,) He sold it on credit; for payment to be made at a future period. (S, K, TA.) نَسِيْئَةٌ: see نَسِىْءٌ. b2: Also, A debt of which the payment is deferred by the creditor to a future period. (TA.) b3: A sale upon credit, in which the payment is deferred to a certain, or definite, period. (TA.) نَاسِئٌ, pl. نَسَأَةٌ (S) and نَاسِئُونَ, (TA,) One whose office it was to perform the act called نَسِىْء; i. e., the postponing of a month: (S, TA:) he was also called قَلَمَّسٌ, pl. قَلَامِسُ. (TA.) A2: نَاسِئٌ Anything fat: or beginning to grow fat: in the K it is said, كُلُّ نَاسِئٍ سَمِينٌ: in the L, كلّ سمين ناسئ, which is more proper. (TA.) مَنْسَأَةٌ: see 1. b2: صِلَةُ الرَّحِمِ مَثْرَاةٌ فِى المَالِ مَنْسَأَةٌ فِى الأَثَرِ [Union with kindred is a means of multiplying wealth, a means of prolonging one's memorial]. (TA, from a trad.) A2: See مِنْسَأَةٌ.

مِنْسَأَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ مَنْسَأَةٌ, (K,) and also without ء, (S, K,) A staff, or stick: so called because a beast is urged or driven with it: (K:) a pastor's great staff. (TA.) For مِنْسَأَتَهُ, in the Kur, xxxiv. 13, some read مِنْ سَأَتِهِ; i. e. “ from, or of, the end of his staff; ” سأَة originally signifying the “ bent part at each end of a bow; ” (Fr, TA, &c.;) and being here used tropically. (TA.) This reading is disapproved by the author of the K. but is supported by good authorities. (TA.) مُنْتَسَأٌ An interval; a distance; a space. (S.) إِنَّ لِى عَنْكَ لَمُنْتَسَأٌ Verily I am far from thee. (S.)

ندب

1 نَدَبَهُ لِلْأَمْرِ, (S,) or إِلَى الأَمْرِ, aor. ـُ (Msb, K,) inf. n. نَدْبٌ; (Msb, TA;) and ↓ انتدبه للامر; this latter verb being used transitively as well as intransitively; (Msb;) He, or it, called, summoned, or invited, him to the thing; (S, Msb, K;) and instigated, incited, or urged, him to it: (K.) i. e., to war, succour, &c. (TA.) b2: [You say,] مَا نَدَبَنِى إِلَى مَا فَعَلْتُ إِلَّا النُّصْحُ لَكَ (tropical:) Nothing incited me to do what I have done but sincerity towards thee. (TA.) b3: نَدَبَهُ إِلَى أَمْرٍ, [and لِأَمْرٍ; and ↓ ندّبهُ; (see مَنْدُوبٌ;)] He sent him to do a thing. (K.) b4: نَدَبَ المَيِّتَ, (aor.

نَدُبَ, inf. n. نَدْبٌ, S,) (tropical:) He wailed for, wept for, or deplored the loss of, the dead man, and enumerated his good qualities and actions. (S, K.) نَدَبُتِ الميّب (tropical:) She (a wailing woman) called upon the dead man, praising him, and saying وَافُلَانَاهُ and وَاهَنَاهُ, Alas for such a one! and Alas for thee! (M) or she, as it were, called upon the dead man, enumerating his good qualities and actions, as though he heard her. (Msb.) It is said that the action is peculiarly that of women; and that the verb is derived from نَدَبَهُ, “he called him ” to do a thing; or from نَدَبٌ, “a scar,” because the wailer mentions the memorials of him who has gone; or perhaps from نَدْبٌ, “lightness, or activity. ” (MF.) A2: نَدِبَ, aor. ـَ (inf. n. نَدَبٌ, TA;) and ↓ اندب; It (a wound) had a hardened scar, such as is termed نَدَبَة. (K.) b2: نَدِبَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. نَدَبٌ [so accord. to the TA, agreeably with analogy; but in the CK and a MS. copy, نَدْبٌ; whence, and from the form of the latter of the two inf. ns. here following, it seems not improbable that the verb may be also written نَدَبَ;] and نُدُوبَةٌ and نُدُوبٌ, It (the back) had upon it scars, such as are termed نُدُوب. (K.) A3: نَدُبَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. نَدَابَةٌ, TA,) He was light, or active, (and quick, TA,) in the accomplishment of affairs, or wants: he was clever, ingenious, or acute in mind; excellent. (K.) 2 ندّب He took, got, or won, a bet, wager, or stake. (L.) b2: See 1.4 اندبهُ It (a wound) made, or left, a scar upon him. (K.) b2: He made a scar upon his skin. (TA.) b3: See بَدَبٌ. b4: اندب بِظَهْرِهِ, and فى ظهره, He, or it, left scars (نُدُوب) upon his back. (TA.) b5: أَنْدَبَتْهُ الحَاجَةُ إِنْدَابًا شَدِيدًا (tropical:) The thing, or want, made a severe impression upon him. (TA.) b6: اندب نَفْسَهُ, and بِنَفْسِهِ, He exposed himself to peril. (K.) A2: See 1.8 انتدب لَهُ He answered, or complied with, or obeyed, his call, summons, or invitation, (S,) and hastened to him, when called to war, succour, &c. (TA.) b2: انتدب اللّٰهُ لِمَنْ خَرَجَ فِى سَبِيلِهِ (occurring in a trad., TA,) God answereth his prayer for forgiveness [who goeth forth to fight for the sake of his religion]: or is surety, or guarantee, for him: or hasteneth to grant him a good recompense: or graciously maketh his completion of that [recompense] to him necessary and sure. (K.) b3: انتدبوا إِلَيْهِ They hastened to him, either at his call, or summons, or of their own accord. (TA.) b4: خُذْ مَا انتدب Take thou what is easily attainable; what offers itself without difficulty: (AA, K:) as also ما انتدم. (TA.) b5: See 1 A2: انتدب لَهُ He opposed him in his speech. (K.) A3: إِيَّاكُمْ وَرِضَاعَ السَّوْءِ فَإِنَّهُ لَا بُدَّ مِنْ أَنْ يَنْتَدِبَ Beware of giving your children to a bad nurse; for it [that is the evil consequence, or the bad qualities that will be acquired,] will inevitably appear some day. Said by 'Omar. (TA.) نَدْبٌ A man who is light, or active, (and quick, TA,) in the accomplishment of an affair, or a want; (S, K;) as also ↓ مِنْدَبَى (K) and ↓ مِنْدِبَى: (TA:) a man who, when he is sent to accomplish a great, or an important, affair, finds it light to him: (A:) clever, ingenious, or acute in mind; excellent: pl. نُدُوبٌ and نُدَبَاءُ: (K:) the former agreeable with analogy; the latter formed from the imaginary sing. نَدِيبٌ; like سُمَحَاءُ, pl. of سَمْحٌ. (TA.) b2: نَدْبٌ, as applied to a horse, Sharp-spirited; (Lth, S;) contr. of بَلِيدٌ (Lth) excellent. (TA.) b3: نَدْبٌ Lightness, or activity. (MF.) b4: أَرَاكَ نَدْبًا فِى الحَوَائِجِ [I see thee to be clever in accomplishing affairs, or wants. (A.) A2: See نَدَبٌ.

نَدَبٌ, (S, K,) and, by poetical licence, ↓ نَدْبٌ, (MF,) The scar, (S,) or scars, (K,) of a wound, (S, K,) not rising above the surrounding skin: (S:) accord. to the K, pl. نَدَبَةٌ [which is written in several MS. copies of the K نَدْبَةٌ; and so in the CK; but this, accord. to the TA, is incorrect;] but it is a coll. gen. n., of which the n. un. is نَدَبَةٌ, like as شَجَرَةٌ is that of شَجَرٌ: (MF:) pl. أَنْدَابٌ and نُدُوبٌ: (K:) the former of نَدَبٌ agreeably with analogy: the latter dev. with respect to analogy; or pl. of نَدْبٌ. (MF.) b2: نَدَبٌ is also applied, in a trad., to the (tropical:) Marks made by Moses' smiting the stone [from which, thereupon, water flowed forth]; these marks being thus likened to the scars of wounds. (TA.) b3: نَدَبٌ is also employed to signify (tropical:) Scars upon men's reputation. A poet says, قَوْمٌ سَأَتْرُكُ فِى أَعْرَاضِهِمْ نَدَبَا A people upon whose reputation I will leave scars, the effects of my satires. (TA.) A2: نَدَبٌ The direction in which one shoots an arrow or arrows: syn. رِشْقٌ. (So in the S and the CK and several MS. copies of the K: in other copies, رَشْقٌ The act of shooting an arrow or arrows. Both these readings are correct accord. to the TA. See below.) إِرْتَمَى نَدَبًا أَوْ نَدَبَيْنِ He shot an arrow or arrows in one direction or in two directions: syn. وَجْهًا أَوْ وَجْهَيْنِ. (TA.) b2: نَدَبُنَا يَوْمَ كَذَا (said by those who are to contend at a shooting-match, TA,) The day of our commencing shooting shall be such a day. (K.) This confirms the assertion in the TA, that نَدَبٌ is syn. with رَشْقٌ, as well as with رِشْقٌ. In the Turk. K, in the place of يَوْمَ ابْتِدَائِنَا, we find يوم انْتِدَابِنَا; and Freytag adopts the latter reading; but I find no other authority for it.]

b3: نَدَبٌ A bet, wager, stake, or thing wagered; what is staked at a shooting match, or a race, and taken by the winner: (S, * K, * L:) pl. أَنْدَابٌ. (Msb.) So in the following phrases. b4: بَيْنَهُمْ نَدَبٌ [Between them is a bet, or wager]. b5: أَقَامَ فُلَانٌ عَلَى نَدَبٍ [Such a one stood to a bet, wager, or stake]. (TA.) b6: 'Orweh says, أَيَهْلِكُ مُعْتَمٌّ وَزَيْدٌ وَلَمْ أُقِمْ عَلَى نَذَبٍ يَوْمًا وَلِى نَفْسُ مُخْطِرِ [Shall Moatemm and Zeyd perish, and I not stand to a stake, some day, when I have the soul of one who makes his life a stake to his adversary and sallies forth against him?] These two were his ancestors. (S.) Or, accord. to Az, who reads أَتَهْلِكُ, they were two tribes. (TA.) نَدِبٌ: see نَدِيبٌ.

نَدْبَةٌ [a fem. epithet] Any camel's foot, or hoof, [meaning any camel, or hoofed beast,] that does not remain in one state. (K.) نُدْبَةٌ, a subst., A call; a summons; an invitation to do a thing. (Msb.) b2: نُدْبَةٌ: a subst., (tropical:) The act of wailing for, weeping for, lamenting, or deploring the loss of, one who is dead, as described in the explanations of نَدَبَ الميّت, and بَدَبَتْه. (S, K, M, Msb.) b3: [هَآءُ النَّدْبَةِ The ه of lamentation].

A2: عَرَبِىٌّ نُدْبَةٌ An Arabian of chaste speech; (K;) eloquent. (TA.) نَدِيبٌ, (K,) or ↓ نَدِبٌ, (L,) A back having upon it scars, such as are termed نُدُوب: (L, K:) the former epithet is also applied in the same sense to a wound: and, so applied, is also explained by the word مَنْدُوبٌ: (TA:) [app. meaning that will be wailed for, or deplored; i. e., fatal].

نَادِبَةٌ (tropical:) A wailing woman; or one wailing for, weeping for, or deploring the loss of, one who is dead, as described in the explanations of نَدَبَ الميّت, and نَدَبَتْهُ: (M, Msb:) pl. نَوَادِبُ. (Msb.) النَّدَّابَتَانِ a name given to Two bad marks in horses. (TA.) مَنْدَبٌ A place to which one is called, summoned, or invited. Hence بَابُ المَنْدَبِ [The Strait Báb el-Mendeb, or The Strait of the Place of Summons:] so called because a certain king summoned a number of men to break through the mountain there, which originally opposed a barrier to the sea, in order to drown his enemy; and this they did, thus overwhelming with the waters many cities and towns with their inhabitants, and forming the sea which intervenes between El-Yemen and Abyssinia, and which extends to 'Eydháb and Kuseyr [&c.]. (Yaakoot.) This king was Alexander the Greek! (TA.) [It is probable that the appearance of the Strait gave rise to this story, and thus to its name: but it is also probable that the name may signify The Strait of the Place of Wailing for the Dead; as many perish who go forth from it.]

مَنْدَبَى and مِنْدِبَى: see نَدْبٌ.

مُنَدَّبٌ: see مَنْدُوبٌ.

مَنْدُوبٌ One sent to do a thing; a messenger; an envoy; an ambassador. (TA.) b2: فُلَانٌ مَنْدُوبٌ لِأَمْرٍ عَظِيمٍ, and لَهُ ↓ مُنَدَّبٌ, Such a one is sent to do a great thing; or to perform an important affair. (A.) b3: ↓ مُنَدَّبَةٌ an appellation, given by the people of Mekkeh to their Envoys, or ambassadors, to the palace of the Khaleefeh. (TA.) b4: مَنْدُوبٌ Desired; sought; sought after; as the name of a certain horse it is thus explained: from نَدَبٌ, as signifying “ a pledge that is given on the occasion of a race. ” (L.) b5: مَنْدُوبٌ: see نَدَبَ الميّت: A thing bewailed, [or complained of as painful,] with the exclamation of يَا or وَا. O! or Alas! (KT.) [The name of the thing thus bewailed, or complained of, has always an ا of prolongation and ه annexed to it, or the ا only.] b6: مَنْدُوبٌ, originally مَنْدُوبٌ إِلَيْهِ, A thing to the performance of which one is called, summoned, or invited: (Msb:) [hence,] approved: (K:) a signification verified by the doctors of practical law: (TA:) a thing the doing of which is more excellent than the leaving it undone, in the eye of the prescriber of the law, but which it is allowable to leave undone. (KT.) [Freytag, in quoting the original words, omits فِعْلُهُ before راجحًا.]
