(S, K, TA.) 2 ركّن is said by Golius, as on the authority of the KL, to signify He made like, “similem fecit: ” and hence Freytag also thus explains it: but it is زكّن that has this signification. In my copy of the KL, تَزْكِينٌ (not تَرْكِينٌ) is expl. by مانند كردن.]4 اركنهُ He made him to incline [إِلَى غَيْرِهِ to another]; syn. أَمَالَهُ: [and to trust to, or rely upon, another, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind: or to lean, rest, or rely, upon another: see 1:] whence a reading in the Kur xi. 115. (Ksh, Bd. *) See 1.5 تركّن said of a man, (TA,) [or primarily and properly, of a thing, like رَكُنَ,] He, [or it] was, or became, firm, or strong, (K, TA,) and inaccessible, or difficult of access. (TA.) b2: and [hence,] (assumed tropical:) He endeavoured, or constrained himself, to be grave, staid, steady, sedate, or calm; syn. تَوَقَّرَ, (K,) and تَرَزَّنَ. (TA.) رَكْنٌ The جُرَذ [or large field-rat]: and the فَأْر [or common rat or mouse]; as also ↓ رُكَيْنٌ. (K.) رُكْنٌ The جَانِب [meaning side, or outward part,] of a thing: (Msb:) or the strongest جَانِب [i. e. side, or outward part,] (S, K, TA) of a thing (S, TA) of any kind: (TA:) the corner, or angle, (زَاوِيَة,) of a house or room or the like: (K in art. زوى:) [and this is perhaps what is meant by the “ strongest جانب; ” for the strongest outward part of the house is unquestionably the corner, or angle: thus the angle in which is the Black Stone, of the Kaabeh, is specially called رُكْنُ البَيْتِ, i. e. رُكْنُ بَيْتِ اللّٰهِ:] the رُكْن of a قَصْر [or palace, or pavilion, &c.,] is its جَانِب [or its strongest جانب], and so of a mountain: (TA: [see رَكُنَ, and رَكِينٌ:]) the pl. is أَرْكَانٌ and أَرْكُنٌ [each properly a pl. of pauc., but the former is used as a pl. of mult.]: (Msb, TA:) the أَرْكَان of anything are is جَوَانِب [or sides, or outward parts, or its corners, or angles,] upon which it rests, and by which it is supported: (TA:) and the أَرْكَان of a land are its extremities [or sides or corners]. (Ham p. 478.) b2: [Hence, (assumed tropical:) A stay, or support, of any kind: see an ex. voce مِرْجَمٌ: whence, perhaps,] one says, تَمَسَّحْتُ بِأَرْكَانِهِ, meaning تَبَرَّكْتُ بِهِ (tropical:) [i. e. I looked for a blessing by means of him, or it]. (TA.) (assumed tropical:) A thing whereby one is strengthened (مَا يُقَوَّى بِهِ [in the CK ما تَقَوَّىبه]), such as dominion (مُلْك [in the CK مَلِك]), and an army, or a military force, &c.: (K:) and thus it has been explained as occurring in the Kur [li. 39], where it is said, فَتَوَلَّى بِرُكْنِهِ, (TA,) i. e. (assumed tropical:) And he turned away from belief with his forces; because they were to him like the رُكْن [properly so termed]. (Jel.) (assumed tropical:) A man's kinsfolk; or nearer, or nearest, relations; or clan; or tribe; syn. عَشِيرَةٌ: (AHeyth, TA:) (assumed tropical:) a man's people, or party; and the higher among them; and the persons by whom he is aided and strengthened: thought by ISd to be thus called by way of comparison [to a رُكْن properly so termed]: and thus it has been explained as used in the Kur [xi. 82], where it is said, أَوْ آوِىَ رُكْنٍ شَدِيدٍ (assumed tropical:) [Or that I might have recourse to a strong people, or party, &c.]: (TA:) or it here means عَشِيرَة [explained above]. (Jel.) And (assumed tropical:) A noble, or high, person; as in the saying, هُوَ رُكْنٌ مِنْ

(TA.) b3: Also (assumed tropical:) Might, and resistance: (S, K:) so in the saying, هُوَ يَأْوِى إِلَى رُكْنٍ شَدِيدٍ (assumed tropical:) [He has recourse to strong, or vehement, might and resistance]: (S:) and so it has been explained as used in the words of the Kur last cited above. (TA.) b4: And (assumed tropical:) A thing, an affair, a case, an event, or an action, of great magnitude or moment, momentous, formidable, or terrible. (AHeyth, K.) Thus AHeyth explains it as used in the saying of En-Nábighah [Edh-Dhubyánee], لَا تَقْذِفَنِّى بِرُكْنٍ لَا كِفَآءَ لَهُ [By no means reproach thou me with a momentous, or a formidable, thing or action, or an enormity, that has not its equal; though (he proceeds to say) the enemies incite thee, with companies of men aiding one another]. (TA.) b5: In the conventional language [of the schools], رُكْنُ الشَّىْءِ means (assumed tropical:) [The essence of the thing; or] that whereby the thing subsists: from التَّقَوُّمُ; because the قِوَام [or subsistence] of the thing is by its رُكْن: not from القِيَام: else it would necessarily be the case that the agent would be a رُكْن to the action; and the substance, to the accident; and the thing to which a quality is attributed, to the quality: (KT:) it is (assumed tropical:) that without which the thing has no subsistence: (Kull:) and is [also] applied to (assumed tropical:) [an essential, or essential part, of the thing; i. e.,] a part of the مَاهِيَّة [or essence] of the thing, (Kull, [and in like manner أَرْكَانُ الشَّىْءِ is explained in the Msb as meaning the parts of the ماهيّة of the thing,]) as when we say that القِيَام is a رُكْن of الصَّلَاْة; as well as to (assumed tropical:) the whole مَاهيّة [of the thing]: (Kull:) [thus] أَرْكَانُ العِبَادَاتِ means (assumed tropical:) the fundamentals [or essentials] of the services of religion, by the neglect, or non-observance, of which they are ineffectual, or null, or void: (TA:) or, as some say, رُكْنُ الشَّىْءِ means that whereby the thing is complete; and this is intrinsic therein; differing from the شَرْط [or condition] thereof, which is extrinsic thereto. (KT.) رَكِينٌ A mountain having high أَرْكَان [i. e. sides, or angles]: (S, K:) or having strong اركان: (TA:) or inaccessible, or difficult of access, having اركان. (Har p. 561.) b2: And hence, (Har ibid.,) (tropical:) A man (S, K, &c.) firm, (Har,) still, or motionless, (TA,) grave, staid, steady, sedate, or calm. (S, K, Har, TA.) رُكَيْنٌ: see رَكْنٌ.

أَرْكُونٌ A great دِهْقَان, (K, TA,) i. e. headman, or chief, of a village or town: [app. from the Greek ἄρχω ν; though it is said that] he is thus called because the people of the village or town trust to him and incline to him. (TA.) مِرْكَنٌ A kind of vessel, well known, (K, TA,) like a تَوْر [q. v.], of leather, used for water: (TA:) or i. q. إِجَّانَةٌ [q.v.], (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) in which clothes and the like are washed; (TA;) called in Pers\. تَغَارْ: (Mgh:) pl. مَرَاكِنُ and مَرَاكِينُ. (TA.) One says, زَرَعُوا الرَّيَا حِينَ فِى

المَرَاكِينِ [They sowed the sweet-smelling plants in the مراكين]. (TA.) مُرَكَّنٌ A thing having أَرْكَان [here meaning corners, or angles]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] ضَرْعٌ مُرَكَّنٌ A great udder; as though having اركان: (S, TA:) and an udder that has opened [or expanded] in its place so as to fill the أَرْفَاغ [or groins], and is not very long. (TA.) Tarafeh says, وَضَرَّتُهَا مُرَكَّنَةٌ دَرُورُ [And her udder is great, having much milk: or,] accord. to AA, مركّنة [here] signifies مجمّعة [app. meaning collecting much]. (TA.) and you say also نَاقَةٌ مُرَكَّنَةُ الضَّرْعِ (S, TA) [A she-camel great in the udder; or] whose udder has أَرْكَان by reason of its greatness. (TA.)

رمن

رُمَّانٌ [The pomegranate;] a certain fruit, (T,) the produce of a certain tree, (M,) well known: (T, S, M, K:) n. un. with ة: (S, M, Msb, K:) the sweet sort thereof relaxes the state of the bowels, and cough; the sour sort has the contrary effect; and that which is between sweet and sour is good for inflammation of the stomach, and pain of the heart: the رمّان has six flavours, like the apple; and is commended for its delicacy, its quick dissolving, and its niceness, or its elegance: (K:) رُمَّانٌ is of the measure فُعْلَانٌ accord. to Sb: (M in art. رم:) Kh, being asked by Sb respecting الرُّمَّان, (S,) or [rather] respecting رُمَّان, (M in art. رم,) when used as a proper name, (S,) said that he declined it imperfectly (S, M) when [thus made] determinate; (S;) and that he made it to accord to the majority, because its derivation is unknown, (S, M, *) i. e., that he regarded its ا and ن as augmentative: (S:) but accord. to Akh, the ن is radical, (S,) [i. e.] he held it to be of the measure فُعَّالٌ, making it to accord to many similar names of plants, (M,) like حُمَّاضٌ &c., (S, M,) فُعَّالٌ being more common than فُعْلَان; (S;) he meant, as applied to plants; for otherwise the contr. is the case: (TA:) [Fei says,] the measure is فُعَّالٌ, the ن being radical, and therefore the word is perfectly decl., unless when used as a proper name, in which case it is imperfectly decl., being made to accord to the majority [of proper names ending with ا and ن, as عُثْمَانُ &c.]. (Msb.) [Freytag mentions several varieties of رمّان, as follows: but the names, as given by him and here transcribed, require verification or correction: “ رمان القسطيسى, رمان المرسى, رمان العدسى, رمان الخزاينى, رمان الترحين, رمان المرونى, qui ad speciem dulcium pertinent: tum رمان شعرى dulce et corticem tenuissimum habens: رمان امليسى Malum Punicum maximum, esu gratissimum et acinorum expers: رمان السحى, رمان الدلوى, رمان الدوارى, sunt minoris magnitudinis, formæ rotundæ: رمان السفريا Malum Punicum magnitudine et sapore præstantissimum, a viro Sefri dicto ita appellatum, quod a Syria Cordubam regnante Abd-Alrahmano hanc speciem transtulerat: ” and he refers to “ Casiri, Bibl. Ar. Hisp. T. i. p. 329; and Avicenn. L. ii. p. 254; ” the latter of which authors only mentions the properties of the رمّان.] b2: رُمَّانُ السَّعَالِى [in the CK السُّعالَى] The white خَشْخَاش [or poppy]: or a species thereof. (K. [The heads of the poppy are called رُمَّانُ الخَشْخَاشِ because of their resemblance to pomegranates.]) b3: رُمَّانُ الأَنْهَارِ [Androsæmum; or hypericum majus;] the large species of هَيُوفَارِيقُون. (K.) b4: [In the present day, رُمَّانٌ and more properly رُمَّانَتَانِ are used as meaning (assumed tropical:) A young woman's breasts, when small and round; they being likened to pomegranates. In a saying of Umm-Zara, (mentioned in the M in art. رم,) رُمَّانَتَانِ seems to be used in this sense, or as meaning a woman's posteriors.] b5: The n. un., رُمَّانَةٌ, is also used, vulgarly, as meaning (assumed tropical:) The قَطِنَة [or third stomach, commonly called the manyplies, and by some the millet, of a ruminant animal]: (K in art. قطن:) or it signifies (assumed tropical:) the thing [or part] in which is the fodder, of the horse.

رُمَّانَةٌ n. un. of رُمَّانٌ [in the proper sense of this word, and also in several tropical senses expl. in the latter part of the next preceding paragraph]. (S, M, Msb, K.) رُمَّانِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, the pomegranate. b2: ] A seller of رُمَّان [or pomegranates]. (TA.) b3: [Of the colour of the pomegranate. b4: (assumed tropical:) Rubycoloured. b5: And, accord. to Golius, on the authority of a gloss in a copy of the KL, (assumed tropical:) The ruby itself.]

(TA.) b2: [Hence,] سَحَبَتِ الرِّيَاحُ أَذْيَالَهَا (tropical:) [The winds dragged their skirts upon the ground; i. e., blew so as to efface the traces upon the ground]. (A: in the TA, الرِّيحُ.) And اِسْحَبْ ذَيْلَكَ عَلَى مَا كَانَ مِنِّى (tropical:) [Drag thy skirt over that which has proceeded from me; i. e. efface what has proceeded from me, as when a person dragging his skirt effaces the traces upon the sand or dust over which he walks].

سَحَابٌ [termed in the S and K pl. of سَحَابَةٌ, as also سُحُبٌ and سَحَائِبُ,] is, accord. to As, [correctly,] a coll. gen. n., used alike as masc. and fem. and sing. and pl.; (MF, TA;) and سَحَابَةٌ is its n. un.; (MF, Msb, * TA;) and سُحُبٌ is pl. of سَحَابٌ or of سَحَابَةٌ; (L, Msb, * MF, TA;) it may be pl. of either of these; (L, MF, TA;) and سَحَائِبُ is pl. of سَحَابَةٌ absolutely, and of سَحَابٌ when used as fem.: (MF, TA:) it signifies Clouds [or a collection of clouds]; (S, K, KL, TA, &c.;) and [clouds] from which the rain comes: (TA:) so called because drawn along in the air; (Msb, TA;) or because they draw along one another; or because the winds draw them along; (TA;) or because they draw along their fringes. (TA in art. حبو.) One says, مَطَرَتْهُمُ السَّحَابَةُ [The cloud rained upon them].

(TA.) سَيَابٌ and ↓ سُيَّابٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ سَيَّابٌ (K) [Unripe dates in the state in which they are called] بَلَح: (S, M, K:) or [in the state in which they are called] بُسْر: (K:) or green بُسْر: (AHn, M:) As says that the flowers of the palm-tree when they have become بَلَح are termed سَيَابٌ, without teshdeed: (TA:) [but see بُسْرٌ:] the n. un. is سَيَابَةٌ (S, M) and سُيَّابَةٌ (S) [and سَيَّابَةٌ]: Sh says that they are called سَدَآء in the dial. of ElMedeeneh, and one is called سيابة in the dial. of Wádi-l-Kurà: and he adds, I have heard the Bahránees say ↓ سُيَّاب and سُيَّابَة. (TA.) سَيَابَةٌ n. un. of سَيَابٌ; (S, M;) like as سُيَّابَةٌ is of سُيَّابٌ. (S.) b2: Also Wine. (K.) سُيَّابٌ and سَيَّابٌ: see سَيَابٌ, in three places.

سَائِبٌ Running water. (Msb.) [See also سَيْبٌ, first sentence.]

سَائِبَةٌ (tropical:) Any beast that is left to pasture where it will, without a pastor: (M, A, K: *) pl. سَوَائِبُ and سُيَّبٌ. (A.) (assumed tropical:) A camel that has lived until his offspring have had offspring, and is therefore set at liberty, and not ridden, (M, K,) nor laden with a burden. (M.) In the Kur v. 102, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) A she-camel that was set at liberty to pasture where it would, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) in the Time of Ignorance, (S, K,) on account of a vow (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and the like: (S, K:) or the mother of a بَحِيرَة; (S, Mgh; [in the Msb, said to be a بَحِيرَة (itself); and in one place in the TA said to be a she-camel of which the dam is a بَحِيرة; but both of these explanations require consideration, as will be seen from what follows;]) or (K) a she-camel which, having brought forth females at ten successive births, was set at liberty to pasture where she would, (S, K,) and not ridden, nor was here milk drunk except by her young one or a guest, until she died, when the men and the women ate her together; and the ear of her last female young one was slit, and she was [therefore] called بَحِيرَة, and was a سَائِبَة like her mother: (S:) or a she-camel of which a man, (M, IAth, K,) in the Time of Ignorance, (M,) when he came from a far journey, (M. IAth, K,) or re-covered from a disease, (IAth, TA,) or had been saved by his beast from difficulty or trouble, (M, IAth,) or when his beast had been saved therefrom, (K,) or from war, said, هِىَ سَائِبَةٌ; (M, IAth, K;) i. e. she was left to pasture where she would, without a pastor, and no use was made of her back, nor was she debarred from water, nor from herbage, nor ridden: (IAth, TA:) thus it signifies in the Kur: (M:) or a she-camel from whose back a vertebra or [some other] bone was taken forth, (M, K,) so that she became known thereby, (M,) and which was not debarred from water nor from herbage, nor ridden, (M, K,) nor milked: (TA:) the pl. is سُيَّبٌ, like نُوَّحٌ pl. of نَائِحَةٌ, and نُوَّمٌ pl. of نَائِمَةٌ; (S;) and سَوَائِبُ. (TA.) It is said in a trad., “I saw 'Amr Ibn-Loheí dragging his intestines in the fire [of Hell]: ” and he was the first who set at liberty سَوَائِب: the doing of which is forbidden in the Kur v. 102. (TA.) And it is related that a hostile attack was made upon a certain man of the Arabs, and he found not any [other] beast to ride, so he rode a سَائِبَة: whereupon it was said to him, “Dost thou ride what is forbidden? ” and he replied, يَرْكَبُ الحَرَامَ مَنْ لَا حَلَالَ لَهُ [He rides what is forbidden who has not what is allowed]: and this saying became a proverb. (M.) السَّائِبَتَانِ means The بَدَنَتَانِ [i. e. two camels, or cows or bulls, for sacrifice,] which the Prophet brought as offerings to the House [of God at Mekkeh], and which one of the believers in a plurality of gods took away: they are thus called because he gave them up (سَيَّبَهُمَا) to God. (TA.) b2: Also (assumed tropical:) A slave emancipated so that the emancipator has no claim to inherit from him, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) except, accord. to EshSháfi'ee, in the case of the slave's dying without appointing any heir, in which case his inheritance belongs to his emancipator, (TA,) [for] such an emancipated slave may bestow his property where [or on whom] he pleases, (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) agreeably with a trad.: (Mgh, TA:) [in the S, and in the Msb as on the authority of IF, it is added, that “ this is what is related to have been forbidden: ” but from what has been stated above, this appears to be a mistake; and I think that these words have been misplaced in the S and Msb, and that they relate only to the she-camel termed سَائِبَة:] a slave is thus emancipated by his owner's saying to him, أَنْتَ سَائِبَةٌ. (S.) 'Omar said, السَّائِبَةُ وَالصَّدَقَةُ لِيَوْمِهِمَا [The sáïbeh and alms are for their day]: i. e., for the day of resurrection; so that one may not return to the deriving of any advantage from them in the present world. (AO, Mgh, TA.)

سَلُطَتْ, inf. n. سَلَاطَةٌ, signifies she (a woman) was, or became, long-tongued, and vehemently clamorous. (Lth.) [See سَلِيطٌ, below.]2 سلّطهُ عَلَيْهِ, (S, M, Msb,) inf. n. تَسْلِيطٌ, (M, K,) also written with ص, (Ibn-'Abbád, and K in art. صلط,) He (God, S) made him to overcome him; to prevail, or predominate, over him; or to have, or exercise, superior power or force over him: (S, K:) he made him to have mastery, dominion, or authority, and power, over him: (Msb:) he made him to have, or exercise, absolute dominion or sovereignty or rule, over him; (M;) or absolute superiority of power or force: (K:) he gave him power over him, and superior power or force.

(TA.) سَلْطٌ: see سَلِيطٌ; for the former, in four places; and for the latter, in seven.

سَلِطٌ: see سَلِيطٌ; for the former, in four places; and for the latter, in seven.

سُلْطَةٌ: see سُلْطَانٌ; for the latter, in three places.

سَلْطَنَةٌ: see سُلْطَانٌ; for the latter, in three places.

سُلْطَانٌ Strength, might, force, or power; (TA;) as also ↓ سَلْطَنَةٌ: (Bd in iii. 144:) predominance; the possession, or exercise, of superior power or force, or of dominion, or authority, and power, or of absolute dominion or authority and power; (Mgh;) as also ↓ سُلْطَةٌ; (S;) the former being syn. with تَسَلُّطٌ [used as a subst.]; (Mgh;) and the latter being the subst. from تَسَلَّطَ: (S:) power of dominion; sovereign, or ruling, power; (M;) [in this sense, as well as in the first,] i. q. ↓ سَلْطَنَةٌ; (Msb;) power of a king; (Lth, Mgh, K;) and of a governor; (Mgh, Msb;) [i. e.] delegated power, or power given to one who is not a king; (TA;) also written سُلْطَانٌ; (M, Msb, K;) which is the only instance of this form: (Msb:) it is masc. and fem.; (M, TA;) generally masc., in the opinion of the skilful; but sometimes fem.; so say IAmb and Zj and others: (Msb:) but ISk says that it is fem. (TA.) One says, (ISk,) or some say, (Msb,) قَضَتْ بِهِ السُّلْطَانُ (ISk, Msb) The sovereign, or ruling, power (↓ السَّلْطَنَةُ) decreed it. (Msb.) And Aboo-Zuheyr says, I heard one, in whose chasteness of speech I have confidence, say, أَتَتْنَا سُلْطَانٌ جَائِرَةٌ [A tyrannical sovereign, or ruling, power, came to us]. (Msb.) It is said in a trad., إِلَّا أَنْ تَسْأَلَ ذَا سُلْطَان ٍ, meaning Unless thou ask the ruler, or governor, or the king, for thy due from the public treasury. (Mgh.) And you say, قَدْ جَعَلْتُ لَكَ سُلْطَانًا عَلَى أَخْذِ حَقِّى مِنْ فُلَان ٍ I have given thee power, or authority, to take, or receive, my due from such a one. (TA.) And لَا يَؤُمُّ الرَّجُلُ الرَّجُلَ فِى سُلْطَانِهِ [A man shall not take precedence of a man in his authority]; meaning, in his house, and where he has predominance, or superior power, or authority; nor shall he sit upon his cushion; for in doing so he would show him contempt. (Mgh.) b2: Strength, or hardness, of anything: (M, K:) sharpness of anything: force, or violence, of anything. (TA.) The vehemence of winter. (TK.) An excited and predominant state of the blood; or inflammation thereof. (IDrd, M, K.) The flaming, or blazing, of fire. (IDrd.) b3: A proof; an evidence; an argument; a plea; an allegation; syn. حُجَّةٌ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and بُرْهَانٌ: (S, Msb:) a حُجَّة being thus called because of the force with which truth attacks the mind: (B:) or, accord. to Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed, from سَلِيطٌ, (M, TA,) signifying

“ oil of olives,” because it enlightens: (TA:) and in these senses it has no pl., because it is used in the place of an inf. n. (S, TA.) Accord. to I'Ab, it signifies حُجَّة wherever it occurs in the Kur. (TA.) But in the words of the Kur [xvii. 35], فَقَدْ جَعَلْنَا لِوَلِّيِهِ سُلْطَانًا, the meaning may be either [We have given to his executor, or heir,] authority, and power, or absolute authority and power, or the like; or a plea, or the like. (Mgh.) And again, in the Kur [lxix. 29], هَلَكَ عَنِّى

سُلْطَانِيَهْ, the meaning may be My dominion, and my authority and power over men, has perished from me; or my plea. (Bd, B.) And sometimes it means A miracle; as in the words of the Kur [li. 38], إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَاهُ إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَان ٍ مُبِين ٍ [When we sent him to Pharaoh with a manifest miracle]. (TA.) Az says that it is sometimes masc. because it has a masc. form; and thus it is in the last of the instances above. (TA.) b4: Also A ruler, or governor, or the like; a king; a sovereign; (S, K, TA;) a khaleefeh: (TA:) these are its most common applications [in the writings of post-classical times]: (TA:) thus applied because the person so called is made to predominate; to have, or exercise, superior power or force; to have dominion, or the like: or because he is one of the evidences of God: (Aboo-Bekr, TA:) or because he possesses proof or evidence [of his right]: or because by him pleas and rights are established: (TA:) or because he enlightens the earth, (Msb, * B,) and is of great usefulness; (B;) the word being derived from سَلِيطٌ [signifying “ olive-oil ”]: (Msb:) it is of the measure فُعْلَانٌ: (S:) and when [thus] applied to a person, it is masc.: (Msb:) or it is masc. and fem.: (S, TA:) accord. to Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed, (TA,) fem. because it is [originally] pl. of سَلِيطٌ applied to “ oil; ” as though the kingdom shone by him; or because it has the signification of حُجَّةٌ: and sometimes masc., because regarded as meaning a man; (K, TA;) or because regarded as a sing.: so says Mohammad Ibn-Yezeed; but Az observes that none beside him says this: Fr says that he who makes it masc. regards it as meaning رَجُلٌ; and he who makes it fem. regards it as meaning حُجَّةٌ: (TA:) the pl. is سَلَاطِينُ. (S, Msb.) It is also, itself, sometimes used as a pl.; as in the phrase سَيِّدُ السُّلْطَانِ, used by a poet, meaning سَيِّدُ السَّلَاطِينَ [The lord of kings]; i. e. the khaleefeh: [but this may be rendered the lord of sovereign power, &c.:] or, as some say, the latter word is here pl. of سَلِيطٌ, like as رُغْفَانٌ is pl. of رَغِيفٌ. (Msb.) سَلَطَانَةٌ, and سِلِطَانَةٌ, or سِلِطَّانَةٌ: see سَلِيطٌ.

سَلِيطٌ Strong, or hard; (M, K;) as also ↓ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ. (K.) You say, ↓ حَافِرٌ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ, (TA,) and سَلِيطٌ, (M, TA,) A strong, or hard, solid hoof. (M, TA.) and الحَافِرِ ↓ دَابَّةٌ سَلِطَةُ A beast having a strong, or hard, hoof. (M.) And الخُفِّ ↓ بَعِيرٌ سَلِطُ A camel having a strong, or hard, foot. (M.) b2: Sharp; applied to anything. (K.) You say also ↓ سَنَابِكُ سَلِطَاتٌ Sharp edges of the fore parts of hoofs. (S, TA.) b3: Chaste in speech, or eloquent, (S, K,) and sharp in tongue: (S:) an epithet of praise when applied to the male, and of dispraise when [with ة] applied to the female: (IDrd, K:) also, (K,) long-tongued; (M, K;) and so ↓ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ; (K;) fem. سَلِيطَةٌ, and ↓ سَلَطَانَةٌ, (M, K,) and ↓ سِلِطَانَةٌ, (K,) or ↓ سِلِطَّانَةٌ; (M;) the last written [thus] with tesh-deed to the ط in the JM., and there explained as signifying long-tongued and clamorous: (TA:) or سَلِيطٌ signifies clamorous and foul-tongued; and so سَلِيطَةٌ applied to a woman: (Msb:) or the latter, applied to a woman, clamorous: (S:) or long-tongued and vehemently clamorous: (Lth:) or سَلِيطَةُ اللِّسَانِ is applied to a woman in two senses; signifying sharp-tongued; and long-tongued. (Az, TA.) You say also, لِسَانٌ سَلِيطٌ, (M, K,) and ↓ سَلِطٌ, (M,) or ↓ سَلْطٌ, (K,) A long tongue. (M, K.) A2: Oil of olives; (S, M, Msb, K;) so applied by the generality of the Arabs: but by the people of El-Yemen applied to oil of sesame, or sesamum: (S, M:) IDrd, in the JM, says the reverse; and IF has followed him; but what J says is right, as Sgh, has observed in the O: (TA:) also, (K,) or as some say, (M,) any oil expressed from grains or berries: (M, K:) pl. سُلْطَانٌ. (Msb, K.) أَسْلَطُ More, and most, overcoming, prevailing, predominating, or superior in power or force. (Har p. 661.) b2: هُوَ أَسْلَطُهُمْ لِسَانًا He is the most chaste, or eloquent, and the sharpest, [&c., (see an ex. voce سِلْقٌ,)] of them in tongue. (S.)

سجع

1 سَجَعَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. سَجْعٌ, He pursued an even, uniform course; he pursued an even course, following one order: this is the primary signification. (TA.) [It seems to be properly intrans.; but is sometimes used as a trans. verb, لِ or إِلَى

being perhaps understood; as in the following phrase;] سَجَعَ ذٰلِكَ المَسْجَعَ He pursued, or aimed at, that object of pursuit or aim; (K, TA;) occurring in a trad. (TA.) b2: And It was even and uniform, one part thereof being like another. (TA.) b3: [Hence,] سَجَعَتِ الحَمَامَةُ, (IDrd, S, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. سَجْعٌ, (Mbr, TA,) and quasi-inf. n. ↓ سِجْعٌ, (TA,) The pigeon continued its cry uninterruptedly in one uniform way or manner; or called, and prolonged its voice or cry, modulating it sweetly: (Mbr, in the “ Kámil; ” and TA:) or cooed: or reiterated its voice or cry: syn. هَدَرَتْ: (S, Msb:) and صَوَّتَتْ: (Msb:) or رَدَّدَتْ صَوْتَهَا. (IDrd, K.) It is said in a prov., لَا

آتَيكَ مَا سَجَعَ الحَمَامُ [I will not come to thee as long as the pigeon cooes;] meaning I will never come to thee. (Lh.) b4: You say also, سَجَعَتِ النَّاقَةُ, (S, TA,) inf. n. سَجْعٌ, (TA,) The she-camel prolonged her yearning cry in one uniform manner. (S, TA.) b5: And سَجَعَتِ القَوْسُ (tropical:) The bow prolonged its twang in one uniform manner, monotonously. (TA.) b6: And hence by way of comparison to the سَجْع of the pigeon, سَجَعَ كَلَامَهُ (tropical:) He (a man) made his speech, or language, [to be rhyming prose, i. e.,] to have فَوَاصِل like the rhymes of verse, without its being measured. (Msb.) And سَجَعَ [alone], (S, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. سَجْعٌ; (S, TA;) and ↓ سجّع, inf. n. تَسْجِيعٌ; (S, TA;) (tropical:) He (a man, S) spoke, or uttered, [or composed,] (S, * K, TA,) rhyming speech or language, (S,) [i. e., rhyming prose, i. e.,] speech, or language, having فَوَاصِل (K, TA) like the فَوَاصِل of verse, without measure: as is said in a description of Sijistán, وَتَمْرُهَا وَ لِصُّهَا بَطَلْ مَاؤُهَا وَشَلْ وَ إِنْ قَلُّوا ضَاعُوا إِنْ كَثُرَ الجَيْشُ بِهَا جَاعُوا دَقَلْ [Its water is such as scantily distils, in interrupted drops, from mountains or rocks, and its robber is a man of courage, and its dates are of the worst kind: if the army be numerous in it, they hunger; and if they be few, they perish]: so says Lth. (TA.) You say also, سَجَعَ بِالشَّىْءِ, meaning (tropical:) He uttered the thing in the manner above described. (TA.) [See also سَجْعٌ, below.]2 سَجَّعَ see the preceding paragraph.

سَجْعٌ; [originally inf. n. of سَجَعَ, q. v.;] (S, Msb, K, &c.;) or, as some say, ↓ سِجْعٌ, but the former is that which commonly obtains, the latter being said to be a subst. like ذِبْحٌ meaning “ what is slaughtered,” unknown, however, in the lexicons, and probably one of the instances of the elicitations of the foreigners, (MF, TA,) the object of him who says that it is سِجْعٌ being app. to make a distinction between the simple subst. and the inf. n., as in the case of the simple subst. and the inf. n. of سَجَعَ said of the pigeon; [see سَجَعَتِ الحَمَامَةُ;] (TA;) and ↓ أُسْجُوعَةٌ; (S, * K;) (tropical:) Rhyming speech or language; (S, K, TA;) [i. e. rhyming prose; i. e.] speech, or language, having فَوَاصِل like the rhymes of verse, without being measured; so called as being likened to the سَجْع of the pigeon; (Msb;) or because of its uniformity, (TA,) and the mutual resemblance and agreement of the words which end its clauses: (IJ, TA:) or a consecution [of clauses] of speech or language, with one رَوِىّ [which is the principal, or only, rhyme-letter]: (JM, K:*) or it consists in the agreement of the endings of words [or clauses], in a certain order, like the agreement of the rhymes (قَوَافٍ) [of verses]: (Mbr, in the “ Kámil; ” TA:) each clause ends with a quiescent letter; and consists of at least two words: (Kull p. 208:) [see an ex. in the first paragraph of this art.:] you say also ↓ كَلَامٌ مُسَجَّعٌ (S) and ↓ كَلَامٌ مَسْجُوعٌ, meaning the same as سَجْعٌ: (TA:) the pl. of سَجْعٌ is أَسْجَاعٌ (S, K) and , accord. to IJ, سُجُوعٌ, but ISd says, I know not whether he have related this from another or coined it, (TA,) and أَسَاجِيعُ, (S,) or this last is pl. of ↓ أُسْجُوعَةٌ (K) [and is also a pl. pl., i. e. pl. of أَسْجَاعٌ, like as أَزَاهِيرُ is pl. of أَزْهَارٌ which is pl. of زَهْرٌ, and many similar instances might be added, such instances being numerous app. because أَفْعَالٌ is properly a measure of a pl. of paucity].

السَّجْعُ المُطَرَّفُ is That [rhyming prose] in which the two words [that end two corresponding clauses] agree in the letter of the سَجْع but not in measure; as الرِّمَمْ and الأُمَمْ: and السَّجْعُ المُتَوَازِى is that in which the measure is observed in the two words as well as the letter of the سَجْع; as القَلَمْ and القَسَمْ. (K T.) It is said in a trad., that Mohammad forbade سَجْع in prayer: [but many of the forms of prayer which he himself prescribed, and many others commonly used by Muslims in every age to the present time, are سَجْع, and the Kur-án is a composition of the same kind, though some do not allow this term to be applied to it, because سَجْع is a highly artificial style of prose-language, characterized by a kind of rhythm as well as rhyme, and it is obviously not proper to ascribe such artificial language to God, nor is it proper to use it in prayer, wherefore] Az says that سَجْع is disapproved in prayer because it resembles the language of the diviners, or soothsayers, but that other kinds of rhyming styles are allowable in خُطَب and رَسَائِل. (TA.) He is also related to have said, إِيَّاكُمْ وَ سَجْعَ الكُهَّانِ (tropical:) [Avoid ye the rhyming prose of the diviners, or soothsayers]. (TA.) One says also, ↓ بَيْنَهُمْ أُسْجُوعَةٌ [Between them is a discourse, or colloquy, oral or written, in rhyming prose]. (S.) سِجْعٌ: see سَجَعَتِ الحَمَامَةُ: b2: and see سَجْعٌ.

سَجُوعٌ: see سَاجِعٌ.

سَجَّاعٌ: see سَاجِعٌ.

سَجَّاعَةٌ: see سَاجِعٌ.

سَاجِعٌ Pursuing [an even, uniform, course, or] a direct, or right, course, (Az, S, K, TA,) in going, or journeying, (Az, S, TA,) [and] (tropical:) in speech, &c. (K, TA.) Dhu-r-Rummeh says, قَطَعْتُ بِهَا أَرْضًا تَرَى وَجْهَ رَكْبِهَا

إِذَا مَا عَلَوْهَا مُكْفَأً غَيْرَ سَاجِعِ i. e. [I traversed, or have traversed, with her a land in which thou wouldst see the face of every one of the company of travellers riding over it, when they get upon it,] جَائِرًا غَيْرَ قَاصِدٍ [turning aside from the right course, (or rather turned aside, unless, which is not improbable, the right reading be مُكْفِئًا,) not direct], (Az, S, TA,) or not direct towards one point: (TA:) but in the O we find, as on the authority of Az, غَيْرَ سَاجِعِ غير جَائِرٍ عَنِ القَصْدِ [which is evidenily a mistranscription; the right reading being غَيْرَ سَاجِعِ أَىْ جَائِرًا عَنِ القَصْدِ, or the like]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] A face justly proportioned; [symmetrical;] well, or beautifully, formed. (K.) b3: [Hence also,] حَمَامَةٌ سَاجِعَةٌ, and ↓ سَجُوعٌ, (K,) without ة, (TA,) [A pigeon continuing its cry uninterruptedly in one uniform way or manner; or calling, and prolonging its voice or cry, modulating it sweetly: or cooing: (see 1:) or] reiterating its voice or cry: pl. [of the former or of both] سُجَّعٌ and [of the former] سَوَاجِعُ. (K.) b4: And نَاقَةٌ سَاجِعٌ A she-camel prolonging her yearning cry in one uniform manner: (TA:) or quavering, and prolonging her voice, [in the copies of the K مُطْرِبَة, but correctly مُطَرِّبَة,] in her yearning cry: (K:) or tall; (AA, K;) but Az says, I have not heard this on any authority beside that of AA.
