(TA.) Suh says, in the R, that A water-skin was thus called [app. meaning absolutely]. (MF, TA.) And it is said in a trad. that a man of the Ansár used to cool water for the Prophet فى اشجابة [app. a mistranscription for فِى أَشْجَابِهِ, meaning in his water-skins, or worn-out water-skins; and cited to show that أَشْجَابٌ is a pl. of شَجْبٌ, like as أَنْهَارٌ is pl. of نَهْرٌ].

[And It mingled with it: for] one says also, كَأَنَّ رِيقَتَهَا خَمْرٌ يَشُوبُهَا عَسَلٌ [As though her saliva were wine with which honey mingled]. (A.) b2: [It is sometimes used in a good sense, but more frequently in a bad sense; and often means He adulterated, vitiated, or sophisticated, it.] It is said in a trad., يَشْهَدُ بَيْعَكُمُ الحَلِفُ وَاللَّغْوُ فَشُوبُوهُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ (assumed tropical:) [Swearing, and unprofitable speech, attend your selling; therefore mix ye it with alms]. (TA.) And it is said in a prov., هُوَ يَشُوبُ وَيَرُوبُ (assumed tropical:) He mixes, or confounds, or makes a confusion or disorder, in speech and in actions: (S, TA:) or he says right one time and wrong another time: (As, TA:) or he defends without energy: (TA:) or he is sometimes incited to motion, or action, and defends himself, but without energy, and sometimes he is motionless, and does not become excited to motion, or action; and it is not from [the words شَوْبٌ and رَوْبٌ applied to] milk: so says Aboo-Sa'eed [i. e. As]: and he says also that شَابَ عَنْهُ وَرَابَ meanshe defended him at one time, and was sluggish, or indolent, at another time: and that عنه ↓ شوّب, inf. n. تَشْوِيبٌ, means he defended him without energy: and thus this latter is expl. in the K, as is likewise شاب عنه: also that the Arabs say, لَقِيتُ فُلَانًا اليَوْمَ يَشُوبُ عَنْ أَصْحَابِهِ, meaning I found such a one to-day defending his companions in some measure. (TA.)

(TA. [See also شَوْبَةٌ.]) b3: And شَوْبٌ (TA) and ↓ شِيَابٌ, (S, TA,) [each an inf. n. used as a subst. properly so termed,] or ↓ شِيَابَةٌ, (so in one copy of the S,) signify A mixture; an admixture; or a thing mixed with another thing. (S, TA.) Thus شَوْبًا signifies in the Kur xxxvii. 65: (TA:) or, accord. to one reading, the word there is ↓ شُوبًا, meaning a thing with which another thing is mixed. (Bd.) الشَّوْبُ also signifies [particularly] What is mixed [with something else], of water or of milk: (K:) one says, سَقَاهُ الذَّوْبَ بِالشَّوْبِ He gave him to drink honey with water, or milk, mixed [therewith]: (TA:) or سَقَاهُ الشَّوْبَ بِالذَّوْبِ He gave him to drink milk [mixed] with honey.

(A.) And Broth; as in the saying, مَا عِنْدَهُ شَوْبٌ وَلَا رَوْبٌ He has not broth nor milk. (S, K: but in the latter, مَا لَهُ.) And شَوْبٌ signifies also A piece of dough. (K.) b4: And [the pl.] أَشْوَابٌ signifies (assumed tropical:) A medley, or mixed multitude, of sundry sorts: a less particular term than أَوْبَاشٌ, which signifies a medley, or mixed multitude, of the low, or lower, or lowest, sort: (TA, from a trad.:) accord. to El-Jawáleekee, it is an arabicized word, from the Pers\. آشُوبٌ. (TA in art. وشب.) شُوبٌ: see شُوبًا in the next preceding paragraph.

شَوْبَةٌ Deceit, delusion, guile, or circumvention: (K: [see also شَوْبٌ:]) [or, app., somewhat thereof:] one says, فِى فُلَانٍ شَوْبَةٌ [In such a one is deceit, &c.]. (TA.) شَيْبَآءُ A virgin in the night of her devirgination: (Ibn-Abi-l-Hadeed, MF:) [either from شَابَ having for its aor. ـُ signifying “ he mixed,” or from شَابَ having for its aor. ـِ signifying “ he became white-headed, or hoary; ” as shown by what follows:] one says, بَاتَتْ بِلَيْلَةِ شَيْبَآءَ, (S and A in art. شيب, and K in the present art.,) and بِلَيْلَةِ الشَّيْبَآءِ, (K,) She passed the night of a virgin then devirginated, (S, A, K,) and of the virgin then devirginated: (K, TA:) said of a virgin-bride when she is devirginated by the bridegroom in the night in which she has been first brought to him: (A, K, TA:) in the contr. case, when she is not devirginated, one says, بَاتَتْ بِلَيْلَةِ حُرَّةٍ: (S, TA:) and one says also, بِلَيْلَةٍ شَيْبَآءَ and بِلَيْلَةٍ حُرَّةٍ: (TA in art. حر:) Z, in the A, mentions the first phrase in art. شيب, and makes it to be tropical, as though the bride were in that night afflicted by an event so severe as to cause the locks of her hair to become white: in the L it is said that the ى in شيباء is substituted for و, because of [the allusion of the phrase to] the mixing of the sperma genitale of the man with that of the woman; but that ٰشَوْبَآء has not been heard instead of شيباء: ISd, in the M, mentions it in arts. شوب and شيب; observing that the ى is said to take the place of و: J, as well as Z and others, mentions it in art. شيب [q. v.]. (TA.) شِيَابٌ and شِيَابَةٌ: see شَوْبٌ.

شَائِبَةٌ sing. of شَوَائِبُ meaning The whiteness [mixing] with the darkness of night. (Har p.

58.) b2: The saying لَيْسَ فِيهِ شَائِبَةُ مُلْكٍ may be from شَابَهُ “ he mixed it; ” meaning There is not in it anything [of ownership, or right of possession,] mixed therewith, though small, or however small; like as one says, لَيْسَ فِيهِ عُلْقَةٌ وَلَا شُبْهَةٌ; it being an instance of the measure فَاعِلَةٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولَةٌ, as in عِيشَةٌ رَاضِيَةٌ: thus the lawyers use it. (Msb.) b3: شَائِبَةٌ is also sing. of شَوَائِبُ meaning Uncleannesses, filths, or pollutions; or unclean, filthy, or foul, things. (S, Msb, K. *) مَشُوبٌ (S, Msb) and مَشِيبٌ, the latter from شِيب [“ it was mixed ”], Mixed. (S, Msb.) A poet says, (namely, Suleyk Ibn-Es-Sulakeh EsSaadee, TA,) وَمَآءُ قُدُورٍ فِى القِصَاعِ مَشِيبُ i. e. [And the water of cooking-pots, in the wooden bowls,] mixed with seeds for seasoning and with sauces. (S.) b2: الفَتْحَةُ المَشُوبَةُ بِالكَسْرَةِ means[The fet-hah that is mingled with kesreh; which is] the fethah that precedes the ا of إِمَالَة; as in عَابِدٌ and عَارِفٌ [when they are pronounced “ 'ébidun ” and “ 'érifun ”]; for امالة consists in inclining [the sound of] fet-hah towards [that of] kesreh; whereby [the sound of] the ا that follows it is inclined, and is not a pure ا; for like as [the sound of] the fet-hah is mingled [with that of kesreh], so is [the sound of] the ا [mingled with that of ى]. (L, TA.) مُشَاوَبٌ, with damm [to the م], and fet-h to the و, [not with both of these vowels to the و as supposed by Freytag,] The case (غِلَاف) of a flash or bottle; (K;) because it is mixed with redness and yellowness and greenness; mentioned by AHát on the authority of As: (TA:) pl. مَشَاوِبُ: (AHát, K:) or the pl. signifies [receptacles of the sorts called] أَسْفَاط [pl. of سَفَطٌ] and حُقَق [pl. of حُقَّةٌ] made of palm-leaves.

(TA.) b2: Also A remainder of anything; as of water in a vessel, and as of property, or camels and the like; pl. شَرَائِدُ, deviating from rule: or شَرِيدَةٌ is a syn.

(TA.) بِرْقِشٌ A certain bird, (S, K,) different from that called أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ, (K, accord. to the TA, [ for we there read طَائِرٌ آخَرُ; the bird called ابو براقش having been mentioned before; but in the CK, in the place of آخَرُ, we find أَخْضَرُ, i. e., green;]) of small size, (S, TA,) that assumes various colours, of the kind called حُمَّر, (TA,) like the sparrow, (S, TA,) and called شُرْشُورٌ (S, K) by the people of El-Hijáz: (S, TA:) but Az states his having heard certain of the Arabs of the desert call it ابو براقش.

أَبُو بَرَاقِشَ A certain bird that assumes various colours; (S;) a small wild bird, like the قَنْفُذ [or hedge-hog, but قُنْفُذ is probably a mistranscription for قُنْبُر, or lark], the upper part of whose feathers is dust-coloured (أَغْبَرُ, as in the K, accord. to the TA), or white (أَغَرُّ, as in some copies of the K), and the middle red, and the lower part black, so that when it is roused, or provoked, it ruffles its feathers and becomes variously changed in colour: (Lth, K:) or a certain bird that is found in the trees called عِضَاه, and the colour of which is between blackness and whiteness, having six قَوَادِم [or primary feathers], three on each side, heavy in the rump, that makes a noise with its wings when it flies, and assumes various colours: (IKh:) a certain variegated bird.

(S, A, O, K, *) b2: And عَرْقَبَهُ He raised his hocks, (namely, a camel's, O,) in order that he might stand up: (O, K:) he assisted him (i. e. a camel) to stand up, by raising [his hocks]. (TA.) Thus the verb has two contr. meanings. (K.) b3: and عَرْقَبَ (assumed tropical:) He practised artifice, craft, or cunning. (O, K.) One says, إِذَا أَعْيَاكَ غَرِيمُكَ فَعَرْقِبْ (assumed tropical:) [When thy debtor wearies thee,] practise artifice, &c. (AA, O, TA.) Q. 2 تَعَرْقَبَ He mounted a beast from behind.

(TA, &c.) The saying of the Prophet, وَيْلٌ لِلْعَرَاقِيبِ مِنَ النَّارِ [Woe to the heel-tendons from the fire of Hell] means, to him who neglects the washing of them (Mgh, Msb) in the [ablution termed] وُضُوْء. (Msb.) b2: [In a beast, it is in some instances applied to The hock, or hough; i. e.] the عُرْقُوب of a beast is that which, in its hind leg, corresponds to the رَكْبَة [or knee] in its fore leg: (S, O, K:) [in other instances, it is applied to the tendon of the hock, or hough; i. e., to the hamstring; for, as] As says, in every quadruped, the عُرْقُوبَانِ are in the hind legs, and the رُكْبَتَانِ in the fore legs; (S, O, TA;) and the عُرْقُوب of the horse is the tendon that conjoins the part wherein meet the وَظِيف [here meaning the metatarsus] and the سَاق [here meaning the tibia]: (TA: [he says “ of the horse,” instead of using a more comprehensive term, app. because he is describing that animal:]) it is, in a quadruped, the tendon that [corresponds to that which in a human being] is behind the two ankle-bones, between the joint of the foot and the shank: in a human being it is a little above the heel. (TA, from an explanation of a trad. [This last explanation evidently employs terms according to their applications in the comparative anatomy of quadrupeds and human beings, and therefore requires the words which I have supplied. That عُرْقُوبٌ, in relation to a beast, signifies the hocktendon is well known: and that it also signifies the hock itself is shown by a usage of the verb عَرْقَبَ (for it is by raising the hocks that a man assists a camel to stand up), and by an explanation voce رُكْبَةٌ.]) شَرٌّ مَا أَجَآءَكَ إِلَى مُخَّةِ عُرْقُوبٍ [It is an evil thing that has compelled thee to have recourse to the marrow of a hock] (K, TA) is a prov. (TA) applied to him who seeks to obtain a thing from a mean, or sordid, person; (K, TA;) for the عرقوب has no marrow. (TA.) And one says, فُلَانٌ يَضْرِبُ العَرَاقِيبَ ويَقْرَعُ الظَّنَابِيبَ [Such a one smites the hock-tendons of camels to slaughter them, and strikes the shins of camels to make them lie down that he may mount them in haste]; meaning that he entertains guests and gives aid, or succour. (A.) b3: عُرْقُوبُ الأَسَدِ is a name of The Thirteenth Mansion of the Moon. (Kzw: see العَوَّآءُ, in art. عو.) b4: طَيْرُ عُرْقُوبٍ is an appellation given to Any bird from which one augurs evil to camels, because it wounds them in the hocks or hock-tendons (يُعَرْقِبُهَا). (Meyd, TA.) The Arabs say that when the bird called أَخْيَل [q. v.] lights upon a camel, its hocks, or hock-tendons, will assuredly be laid bare: and accord. to the [O and] K, طَيْرُ العَرَاقِيبِ is an appellation of The [bird called] شِقِرَّاق [which is said in the S &c. to be the same as the أَخْيَل]; and [Sgh and SM add that] they regard it as of evil omen. (TA.) b5: عُرْقُوبُ القَطَا means The سَاق [or shank] of the قطا [or sand-grouse]. (S, O, K.) To this a thing is hyperbolically likened to denote its shortness: one says يَوْمٌ أَقْصَرُ مِنْ عُرْقُوبِ القَطَا [A day shorter than the shank of the katà]: (L, TA:) and a poet says, (S, &c.,) namely, El-Find Ez-Zimmánee, (O, L, TA,) or, accord. to Seer, Imra-el- Keys Ibn-'Ábis, (IB, L, TA,) وَنَبْلِى وَفُقَاهَا كَعَرَاقِيبِ قَطًا طُحْلِ [And my arrows, with their notches, like the shanks of ash-coloured sand-grouse]. (S, O, L, TA.) b6: عُرْقُوبٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A turning, or bending, part of a valley: (K:) or a part of a valley in which is a great turning or bending. (S, O.) And A road in a mountain: (K:) or a narrow road in a mountain: or a road in a deep valley, in which only one can walk. (TA.) And [the pl.] عَرَاقِيبُ, (tropical:) The prominences, or projecting parts, of mountains: (O, K, TA:) and the most distant, or far-extending, roads, or ways, thereof: (Aboo-Kheyreh, O, TA:) for [in travelling mountains,] you follow the most easy way, wherever it be: (Aboo-Kheyreh, TA:) or the narrow roads or ways, in the hard and elevated parts, of moun-tains. (S, O, K.) And [hence, app.,] عَرَاقِيبُ الأُمُورِ (assumed tropical:) Great and difficult affairs: (S, O, K:) as also عَرَاقِيلُهَا. (S, O.) b7: And A mountain always crowned with clouds, not rained upon. (TA.) b8: Also (assumed tropical:) Artifice, craft, or cunning; or a stratagem, or trick. (O, K.

A2: Also the name of a certain man of the Amalekites, (S, O, K, TA,) or, (so says Ibn-El-Kelbee, O,) of the Benoo-Abd-Shems-Ibn-Saad, (JM, O, TA,) but this is said to be of no authority, (O,) or of El-Ows, (JM, TA,) the greatest liar of his time, (K,) proverbial for breach of promises: (S, O:) El-Ashja'ee (whose name was Jubeyhà, O, K) says, وَعَدْتَ وَكَانَ الخُلْفُ مِنْكَ سَجِيَّةً

مَوَاعِيدَ عُرْقُوبٍ أَخَاهُ بِيَتْرَبِ (S, O, K, TA) i. e. (tropical:) Thou promisedst, but breach of promise was an inherent quality of thee, like the promises of 'Orkoob to his brother in Yetreb; which is in El-Yemámeh; or, as some relate it, بِيَثْرِب, i. e. El-Medeeneh, or, as some say, the land of the Benoo-Saad; but the former is the more correct. (TA. [See also Har p. 160.]) And one says, هُوَ أَكْذَبُ مِنْ عُرْقُوبِ يَتْرَبَ (tropical:) [He is more mendacious than 'Orkoob of Yetreb]. (A, TA.)
