زول

1 زَالَ, aor. ـُ (K,) and, accord. to the K, also يَزَالُ, which is rare, on the authority of Aboo-'Alee, but this is the aor. of زَالَ like خَافَ, [which has a different meaning from the former verb,] (MF, TA,) inf. n. زَوَالٌ (K) and زُوُولٌ (Lh, K) [which in all its senses except one mentioned below may app. be pronounced also زُؤُولٌ, like حُؤُولٌ for حُوُولٌ, pl. of حَوْلٌ,] and زَوِيلٌ and زَوْلٌ, (K, TA,) the last thus, with fet-h, accord. to a rule of the K, but in some of the copies زُولٌ, with damm, (TA,) and زَوَلَانٌ, (K,) It went away; passed away; departed; removed; shifted; (K, TA;) was, or became, remote, or absent; ceased to be or exist, or came to nought; (TA;) as also ↓ اِزْوَلَّ, inf. n. اِزْوِلَالٌ; (K;) or, accord. to the O, ↓ اِزْوَأَلَّ, like اِطْمَأَنَّ. (TA.) [See also 7.] Hence, الدُّنْيَا وَشِيكَةُ الزَّوَالِ [The world, or worldly enjoyment or good, is quick in passing away, or coming to nought]. (TA.) And زال زَوَالُهُ, and زَوَالُهَا: see زَوَالٌ: and for the former see also زَوِيلٌ. and زال زَوِيلُهُ, and زَوِيلُهَا: see زَوِيلٌ. And زال الشَّىْءُ عَنْ مَكَانِهِ, (S, TA,) or مَوْضِعِهِ, (Msb,) aor. ـُ inf. n. زَوَالٌ (S, Msb, TA) &c., as above, (TA,) The thing removed, went away, [or ceased,] from its place; it left, or quitted, its place.

[and زال عَنْهُ, said of any affection of the mind or body, It went away, passed away, or ceased, from him; it left him, or quitted him.] And زَالُوا عَنْ مَكَانِهِمْ They turned away from their place; or returned, or went back, and fled, from it.

(K, TA.) [And sometimes it signifies (assumed tropical:) The sun set: see 1 in art. دلك.] b3: And hence, but not with زُوُولٌ for an inf. n. in the senses expl. in this sentence and the next following it, (TA,) زال النَّهَارُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. زَوَالٌ (TA) [and app. زِيَالٌ and زَوَلَانٌ], (tropical:) (tropical:) The day became advanced, the sun being somewhat high; syn. اِرْتَفَعَ: (K, TA:) or, as some say, went away; or departed.

(K, * TA.) b4: زال ظعنهم, [thus in the TK (ed. of Boolák), i. e. ظَعْنُهُمْ, thus in the K, and thus only, the verb being indicated by a preceding phrase; in the TA زالت ظعنهم. which is an evident mistranscription;] inf. n. زَيْلُولَةٌ, (K,) like قَيْلُولَةٌ [an inf. n. of قَالَ, aor. ـِ but more properly compared to دَيْمُومَةٌ, an inf. n. of دَامَ, aor. ـُ (TA;) [a phrase which may be rendered Their journeying ceased for a while;] expl. as meaning اِئْتَوَوْا مَكَانَهُمْ ثُمَّ بَدَا لَهُمْ [i. e. they abode in their place: then an opinion occurred to them different from their former opinion, so that it turned them therefrom, inducing them to remove]: (K:) in the K is added عَنْهُ; but this should be omitted: the passage is taken from the M; in which عَنْهُ refers to Lh as the authority. (TA.) b5: زال [having for its inf. n., app., زَوَالٌ and زَوِيلٌ and زَوْلٌ (see the first of these below)] signifies also It moved; or was, or became, in a state of motion, commotion, or agitation; syn. تَحَرَّكَ: so in the saying, رَأَيْتُ شَبَحًا ثُمَّ زَالَ [I saw a bodily form or figure: then it moved, &c.]. (TA.) And one says, هُوَ يَزُولُ فِىالنَّاسِ, meaning He moves much among men, or the people, and does not remain still, or stationary. (TA.) b6: زَالَتْ لَهُ

And زِيلَ زَوِيلُهُ and زَوِيلُهَا and زَوَالُهُ: see زَوِيلٌ: and for the first, see also زَوَالٌ. b2: And زالهُ He separated himself from him; (K;) as also زايلهُ.

(K.) [Accord. to the TA, it seems to be used properly in relation to real things, and tropically in relation to ideal things. One says, زاول الصَّيْدَ He strove to gain possession of, or to catch, i. e. he hunted, the animals of the chase. (See طَرَدَ.)] And زَاوَلْتُهُ عَنِ الأَمْرُ [I strove with him to avert him, or to turn him back, from the affair]. (S, in art. جحس.) Zuheyr says, فَبِتْنَا وُقُوفًا عِنْدَ رَأْسِ جَوَادِنَا يُزَاوِلُنَا عَنْ نَفْسِهِ وَنُزَاوِلُهْ

[And we passed the night standing at the head of our courser, he striving with us to repel us from himself, and we striving with him to master him]. (S.) And a man said to another, who upbraided him with cowardice, وَاللّٰهُ مَا كُنْتُ جَبَانًا وَلٰكِنِّى

(S.) One says also, يُزَاوِلُ حَاجَةً لَهُ i. e. يُحَاوِلُهَا (tropical:) [He seeks to accomplish a thing that is an object of want to him; or does so by artful, or skilful, management]: a tropical phrase.

A2: And تزوّل, (K,) said of a young man, (TA,) He attained the utmost degree of acuteness or sharpness or quickness of intellect, or of cleverness, ingeniousness, skilfulness, knowledge, or intelligence.

(TA.) b2: Courageous; (K, TA;) in consequence of whose courage, men are abashed (يَتَزَايَلُوا [as though زَوْلٌ in this sense belonged to art. زيل]).

One says, هٰذَا زَوْلٌ مِنَ الأَزْوَالِ (tropical:) This is a wonder of the wonders. (TA.) And one says also, [using it as an epithet,] سَيْرٌ زَوْلٌ (assumed tropical:) A journeying, or pace, wonderful in respect of its quickness and briskness or lightness: and شَتْوَةٌ زَوْلَةٌ (assumed tropical:) A winter, or winters, wonderful in respect of the severity and cold thereof.

A4: The فَرْج [i. e. the anterior pudendum, or the pudenda,] of a man. (K.) One says, كَشَفَ زَوْلَهُ [He uncovered his فرج]. (TK.) A5: And A hawk. (K.) زَوَالٌ (S, Msb, K) and ↓ زَوِيلٌ and ↓ زَوْلٌ (K) are inf. ns. of زَالَ [q. v.]. (S, Msb, K.) b2: and all signify Motion, commotion, or agitation. (TA in explanation of the first and last, and K in explanation of the second.) [Hence,] ↓ زَالَ زَوَالُهُ, or زَوَالَهُ ↓ زَالَ, (accord. to different copies of the K,) or اللّٰهُ زَوَالَهُ ↓ زَالَ, (S in art. زيل, and TA,) and اللّٰهُ زَوَالَهُ ↓ أَزَالَ, (S in art. زيل, and K and TA,) are imprecations of destruction, or perdition, or death, (S, K,) and trial, or affliction, upon him to whom they relate: (S:) or such are the [second and] third and fourth of these phrases: but the first is a prayer for one's continuance where he is, [or his continuance in life; lit.] meaning May his motion cease; [and hence, may he continue where he is, or continue in life:] and, as expl. by ISk, the [second and] third and fourth [lit.] signify May [He i. e.] God cause his motion to cease; [and hence, may He, or God, put an end to his life;] these phrases being similar to the saying أَسْكَتَ اللّٰهُ نَامَّتَهُ. (TA.) [Thus all four have virtually the same lit. signification. And the first has also another meaning; as will be seen below.] El-Aashà says, هٰذَا النَّهَارُ بَدَا لَهَا مِنْ هَمِّهَا زَوَالَهَا ↓ مَا بَالُهَا بِاللَّيْلِ زَالَ (S, TA,) [app. meaning This is the day-time: an opinion has arisen in her mind such as to turn her from her former opinion and induce her to absent herself, (بَدَآءٌ, I suppose, being understood after بَدَا لَهَا, like as it is after بَدَا لَهُمْ in the Kur xii. 35,) in consequence of her anxiety: what will be her case in the night? may it (her phantom) be absent, like as she is absent: for] the meaning is said to be, زَالَ الخَيَالُ زَوَالَهَا: IAar says, he disliked the phantom only because it roused his desire: or [زَالَ may be here syn. with

أَزَالَ, so that] the meaning may be اللّٰهُ زَوَالَهَا ↓ أَزَالَ [may God make her motion to cease]; and this is corroborated by the reading of AA, زَوَالُهَا, in the nom. case, [i. e. زَوَالُهَا ↓ زَالَ may her motion cease;] which makes this an instance of [the license termed] الإِقْوَآء: this, he says, is an old proverbial phrase of the Arabs, and El-Aashà

has used it as he heard it: others than AA read [زَوَالَهَا,] in the accus. case, without إِقْوَآء, holding the meaning to be, may her phantom be absent from us in the night like as she herself is absent in the day-time. (TA.) ↓ زَوِيلُهُ ↓ زِيلَ, likewise, means His motion ceased, or may his motion cease: or, accord. to Z, he became fixed, or motionless, from fear; or may he become so. (TA in art. زيل.) [See also another rendering of this phrase in the next paragraph.] One says also, وَالعَوِيلُ ↓ أَخَذَهُ الزَّوِيلُ Commotion, or agitation, (K, TA,) and disquietude of mind, (TA,) and wailing, or raising of the voice in weeping, overcame him. (K, TA.) A2: See also the next paragraph, in three places.

زَوِيلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places.

A2: Also The side; syn. جَانِبٌ; and so ↓ زَوَالٌ: thus in the sayings, زَوِيلُهُ ↓ زَالَ and ↓ زَوَالُهُ ↓ زَالَ, meaning [app. His side became in a state of commotion, or it quivered,] by reason of fright: (K:) [or] زَوِيلٌ signifies the heart: so in the saying, زَوِيلُهُ ↓ زِيلَ [His heart became removed from its place]: (S:) a prov., applied to one whom an event that has disquieted him has befallen: as also ↓ زَوَالُهُ ↓ زِيلَ: (Meyd:) [see also two other renderings of the former phrase in the next preceding paragraph:] Dhu-r-Rummeh says, describing the egg of an ostrich, وَيَيْضَآءُ لَا تَنْحَاشُ مِنَّا وَأُمُّهَا مِنَّا زَوِيلُهَا ↓ إِذَا مَا رَأَتْنَا زِيلَ meaning زِيلَ قَلْبُهَا مِنَ الفَزَعِ [i. e. And a white thing (the egg which he is describing) will not take fright, and flee from us, or will not shrink from us, while its mother, when she sees us, her heart becomes removed from its place by fright in consequence of the approach of us]: (S in art. زيل, and Meyd:) or, as some relate it, مِنَّا ↓ زَالَ زَوِيلُهَا [which means her heart quits its place &c.]: (TA:) and the former reading may mean the same as this. (IB, TA in art. زيل.) زَوَّالٌ Having much زَوْل, i. e. motion. (TA.) b2: Accord. to J, it occurs in an أُرْجُوزَة, cited by AA, as meaning That moves much in his gait, but traverses a short space: but the right word in this case is زَوَّاك, as is shown by the rhyme. (IB, K.) زويلى, with damm, [app. زُوَّيْلَى, like قُبَّيْطَى

&c., for, as it is not said to be a dim., I know no other form of word with which to compare it,] A thing like a ladle, belonging to sailors. (TA.) زَائِلٌ [Going away; passing away; departing; transient; shifting; becoming remote, or absent; ceasing to be or exist; nonexistent: &c.: part. n. of زَالَ, q. v.]. b2: [Hence,] لَيْلٌ زَائِلُ النُّجُومِ [properly A starless night, or night of which the stars are absent: but expl. as meaning] (assumed tropical:) a long night. (Z, TA.) b3: زَالَ زَائِلُ الظِّلِّ: see 1.

زَائِلَةٌ [from زَائِلٌ, the ة being affixed to transfer the word from the category of epithets to that of substantives,] Whatever has a soul, (K, TA,) of animals; that moves (يَزُولُ) from its place: (TA:) or anything that moves; (K, TA;) that does not remain fixed in its place; applied to a man and to other things. (TA.) b2: زَوَائِلُ is its pl.: (TA:) and signifies [particularly] Animals of the chase. (K, TA.) b3: And [hence,] (tropical:) Women. (O, K, TA.) One says رَجُلٌ رَامِى الزَّوَائِلِ (assumed tropical:) A man knowing in respect of the diseases, or faults, (أَدْوَآء,) of women: (O:) or (tropical:) skilful in the making of women to incline to him: whence the saying of Ibn-Meiyádeh, وَكُنْتُ امْرَأً أَرْمِى الزَّوَائِلَ مَرَّةً

فَأَصْبَحْتُ قَدْ وَدَعْتُ رَمْىَ الزَّوَائِلِ (tropical:) [And I was a man having the art of making women to incline to me, once; but I have become such that I have relinquished the art of making women to incline to me]: this was a man who used to beguile women in his time of youthful vigour by his beauty; but when he became hoary and aged, no woman inclined to him. (TA.) b4: Also (tropical:) The stars: (K, TA:) because of their motion from the east and the west in their revolving. (TA.) b5: See also 1, near the end of the paragraph; and زَوْلٌ, last sentence but three.

زَوْلٌ أَزْوَلُ (S, * TA) has an intensive signification [i. e. (assumed tropical:) A great wonder; or a very wonderful thing]: (TA:) [or a wonderful event that happens to one, preventing his fleeing;] accord. to Abu-sSemh, أَزْوَلُ denotes the happening to one of an event such as prevents him from fleeing. (IB, TA.) مِزْوَلَةٌ A certain instrument pertaining to astronomers, by means of which is known the declining of the sun from the meridian: [a sun-dial: used in this sense in the present day:] a vulgar term: pl. مَزَاوِلُ.

(TA.) A2: Also Frightened by a زَوْل, i. e. a form, or figure, appearing in the night. (TA.)

Sept.الخَرِيفُMostly Dry. it is also applied to the time, or period, of the reign, rule, prefecture, or the like, of a man: [and to the life-time of a man:] with the philosophers, it signifies the measure of the motion of the ninth (or greatest) sphere (الفَلَك الأَطْلَس): (TA:) [and there are various other explanations belonging to the conventional language of the schools, not to the proper language of the Arabs: (see the “ Dict. of the Technical Terms used in the Sciences of the Musalmans: ”)] the pl. (of زَمَنٌ, Msb) is أَزْمَانٌ and أَزْمُنٌ and (that of زَمَانٌ, Msb) أَزْمِنَةٌ. (S, Msb, K.) [The dim. of زَمَنٌ, i. e. زُمَيْنٌ, see below.] In the following trad., إِذَا تَقَارَبَ لَمْ تَكَدْ رُؤيَا المُؤْمِنِ تَكْذِبُ ↓ الزَّمَانُ [When the time becomes contracted, the dream of the believer will scarcely ever, or never, be false], what is meant is the end of time; and the approach of the resurrection; because when a thing becomes little, its extremities contract: or what is meant is the day's and the night's becoming equal; for the interpreters of dreams assert that the times [of dreams] most true of interpretation are the season of the breaking forth of the blossoms and that of the ripening of the fruit, which is when the day and the night become equal: or what is meant is the coming forth of El-Mahdee, when the year will be like the month, and the month like the week, and the week like the day, and the day like the hour, deemed short because deemed delightful: (K in art. قرب:) or it alludes to the shortness of lives and the scantiness of blessings. (TA in that art.) In another trad. it is said, كَانَتْ تَأْتِينَا أَزْمَانَ خَدِيجَةَ, meaning [She used to come to us] in the life-time [lit. times] of Khadeejeh. (TA.) And one says also, مَا لَقِيتُهُ مُذْ

↓ زَمَنَةٍ, meaning ↓ مذ زَمَانٍ [i. e. I have not met him for a long time past: but in this case, accord. to the more approved usage, one should say مُذْ زَمَنَةٌ and مُذْ زَمَانٌ, or مُنْذُ زَمَنَةٍ and مُنْذُ زَمَانٍ]. (Lh, K, * TA.) (For authorities, and further information, see the words here mentioned, and more particularly نَوْءٌ and رَبِيعٌ; under the latter of which it is said that the third and last of the Six Seasons are called by some, respectively, الرَّبِيعُ الثَّانِى and الرَّبِيعُ الأَوَّلُ; and also that the appellations of the 3rd and 4th months are differently pronounced by different persons; and that some exclude the وَسْمِىّ from the rains called الرَّبِيعُ: and for the Calendar of the Mansions of the Moon, see مَنَازِلُ القَمَرِ, in art. نزل.) The months are said to have received the names here given to them from Kiláb Ibn-Murrah, an ancestor of Mohammad, about two centuries before El-Islám. These months were lunar; and from this period, with the view of adapting their year to the solar, the Arabs added a month, which they called النَّسِىْءُ, at the end of every three years, until they were forbidden to do so by the Kur-án (ch. ix.): but the months still retrograded through the seasons, though much more slowly. The abolition of the intercalation was proclaimed by Mohammad at the pilgrimage in the tenth year of the Flight.

زَمِنٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and ↓ زَمِينٌ, (K, TA,) applied to a man, (S, Msb, TA,) Having, or affected with, a malady of long continuance; (Mgh, Msb, TA; *) as also ↓ مُزْمَنٌ; (Har p. 182;) or crippled, or deprived of the power to move or to stand or to walk, by disease, or by a protracted disease: (TA:) or having what is termed زَمَانَةٌ [expl. below], i. e. عَاهَةٌ: (K, TA:) or afflicted [with what is so termed]: (S:) pl. زَمِنُونَ, (K, TA,) of the former, (TA,) and زَمْنَى, (Msb, K, TA,) [likewise] of the former, (Msb,) or of the latter, as also زَمَنَةٌ. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] هُوَ فَاتِرُ النَّشَاطِ زَمِنُ الرَّغْبَةِ (tropical:) [He is remiss in respect of briskness or promptness, powerless in respect of desire]. (TA.) زُمْنَةٌ: see زَمَنٌ, second sentence.

زَمَنَةٌ A space, or period, or a long space or period, of time. (TA.) See also زَمَنٌ, last sentence.

زَمَانٌ: see زَمَنٌ, third sentence, and again in two places in the latter part of the paragraph.

زَمِينٌ: see زَمِنٌ.

زُمَيْنٌ [dim. of زَمَنٌ]. You say, لَقِيتُهُ ذَاتَ الزُّمَيْنِ, meaning thereby تَرَاخِى الوَقْتِ; (S, K;) [i. e. I met him some time ago;] like as one says ذَاتَ العُوَيْمِ, meaning بَيْنَ الأَعْوَامِ: (S:) or meaning فِى سَاعَةٍ لَهَا أَعْدَادٌ [in a time consisting of some, or several, subdivisions]: (TA:) or ذَاتَ الزُّمَيْنِ means مُذْ ثَلَاثَةٌ أَزْمَانٍ [three seasons ago; or, app., three or more, to ten; (agreeably with an explanation of ذَاتَ العُوَيْمِ voce ذُو;) by ازمان being app. meant periods of two, or three, or six, months]; (T in art. ذُو;) and the like is said by IAar. (TA in art. صبح.) زَمَانَةٌ an inf. n. of زَمِنَ [q. v.]. (S, * Msb, K.) b2: [Used as a simple subst.] it signifies also A disease, or an evil affection, syn. آفَةٌ, (S,) or عَاهَةٌ, (K,) in animals: (S:) [and particularly, in a man, a disease of long continuance: or such as cripples, or deprives of the power to move or to stand or to walk: (see زَمِنَ and زَمِنٌ:)] or want of some one or more of the limbs, or members; and privation of the powers, or faculties. (Har p. 315.) And i. q. دَهْرٌ [app. as meaning An evil event or accident, a misfortune, or a calamity]. (KL.) b3: Also Love. (K.) سَاعَةٌ زَمَانِيَّةٌ A while; an indefinite short time; as distinguished from سَاعَةٌ فَلَكِيَّةٌ, which is an astronomical hour: and so, often, سَاعَةٌ alone.]

مُزْمَنٌ: see زَمِنٌ.

مُزْمِنٌ Of long continuance; of long standing; over which a long time has past. (TA.) [You say مَآءٌ مُزْمِنٌ Stale water.] And سُعَالٌ مُزْمِنٌ [Chronic cough]. (K voce مَصْطَكَا.)

فوز

1 فَازَ, aor. ـُ inf. n. فَوْزٌ (S, A, O, Msb, K) and مَفَازٌ and مَفَازَةٌ, (TA,) He attained, acquired, gained, or won, good, or good fortune, (S, A, O, Msb, * K,) or his wish or desire, or what he desired or sought; (Bd in iii. 182, and TA;) he met with, or experienced, that for which one would be regarded with a wish to be in the like condition, without its being desired that it should pass away from him; he became far from what was disliked, or hated, or evil: (TA:) he succeeded, or was successful: he won, or gained the victory: (Msb:) [he had his arrow drawn, or] his arrow came forth [from the رِبَابَة], in the game called المَيْسِر: and (tropical:) it (an arrow) won; or came forth before its fellow [or fellows in that game]. (O, * TA.) Yousay, فَازَ بِهِ He attained it, acquired it, gained it, or won it; (Kh, A, O, Msb, K;) namely, good, or good fortune; (Kh, O;) or reward: (A:) and he took it away, went away with it. (S, K.) b2: He became safe, or secure; he escaped. (S, A, O, Msb, K.) You say, فَازَ مِنهُ He became safe, or secure, from it; he escaped it; (A, O, K;) namely, evil; (TA;) or punishment. (A, O, TA.) And طُوبَى لِمَنْ فَازَ بِالثَّوَابِ وَفَازَ مِنَ العِقَابِ A happy end is his who gains reward and escapes punishment. (A.) A2: And فَازَ, (S, O, K,) aor. ـُ (TA,) inf. n. فَوْزٌ, (S, A, K,) (tropical:) He perished: (S, A, K:) he died; and so ↓ فَوَّزٌ: (S, A, O, Msb, K:) thus the former bears two contr. significations: (A, K:) but IB says that, accord. to some, the latter is not used in this sense unless preceded by another phrase such as in the following ex.: فُلَانٌ بَعْدَهُ ↓ مَاتَ فُلَانٌ وَفَوَّزَ [Such a one died and such a one died after him]: and accord. to others, ↓ فوّز signifies (tropical:) he became in the مَفَازَة [or state of temporary safety] which is between the present life and that which is to come. (TA.) [This last signification is given in the A.] b2: See also 2.2 فوّز (assumed tropical:) He went, or his course brought him, to the مَفَازَة: (IAar, TA:) or (tropical:) he went upon the مفازة: (A, TA:) or (assumed tropical:) he went away. (IAar, O, K:) or (tropical:) he went away into the مفازة: (A:) and ↓ فَازَ signifies (assumed tropical:) he traversed the مفازة. (Msb.) You say, فوّز بِإِبِلِهِ (S, A, O, K) (tropical:) He entered upon the مفازة with his camels. (S, O, K.) b2: Also (assumed tropical:) He went forth from one land or country to another: and ↓ تفوّز signifies the same as فوّز. (TA.) b3: See also 1, latter part, in three places.

A2: And, said of a road, It was, or became, apparent: (O, K:) and Sgh adds. [but not in the O,] and it stopped, or came to an end. (TA.) 4 افازهُ بِكَذَا He (God, S, O, K, or a man, Msb) caused him to attain, acquire, gain, or win, such a thing. (S, O, Msb, K.) 5 تَفَوَّزَ see 2.

فَازٌ: see what next follows.

فَازَةٌ A [tent such as is called] مِظَلَّة, (S, K.) with two poles, (K,) or that is extended with a pole: (S; in which is added, “it is in my opinion an Arabic word: ”) pl. [or rather coll. gen. n.]

↓ فَازٌ. (ISd, TA.) فَائِزَةٌ (tropical:) A thing that rejoices one, and by which one attains good or the object of his desire: you say, فَازَ بِفَائِزَةٍ (tropical:) He attained, acquired, gained, or won, a thing that rejoiced him, &c. (A, O, * TA.) مَفَازٌ: see the following paragraph, near the end.

مَفَازَةٌ A place of safety, security, or escape. (S, A, O, K.) So in the Kur [iii. 185], فَلَا تَحْسِبَنَّهُمْ بِمَفَازَةٍ مِنَ العَذَابِ [Do thou by no means reckon them to be in a place of security from punishment]: (S, A, * O:) or, accord. to Fr, the meaning here is, far from punishment. (TA.) b2: A cause, or means, of prosperity, or success, or of the attainment or acquisition of that which one desires or seeks, or of what is good, or of that whereby one becomes in a happy or good state; syn. مَفْلَحَةٌ. (A.) b3: (tropical:) [The state of temporary safety which is between the present life and that which is to come. See 1, last signification.]

A2: (tropical:) A place of perdition, or destruction: (Msb, K: *) or i. q. فَلَاةٌ: (A:) [i. e.] a desert; syn. بَرِّيَّةٌ; any [desert such as is called] قَفْرٌ: (TA:) or a desert in which is no water: (ISh, O, K:) and a desert in which is no water for the space of a journey of two nights or more: when there is none for the space of a journey of a night and a day, it is not thus called. (ISh, O, TA:) or a tract in which two wateringplaces are so far apart that camels are kept from drinking two days, with a portion of the day preceding them and of the day following them, [accord. to that which is generally preferred of the explanations of the term رِبْعٌ which is here employed,] and other animals [that journey quicker] drink on alternate days; as also فَلَاةٌ: or such as is between that in which camels are kept from drinking two days &c. as above, and that in which other animals drink on alternate days; as also فَيْفَاةٌ: (TA:) so called to prognosticate good fortune, and safety. (As, IF, S, A, O, Msb,) as meaning a place of safety, (A,) from فَازَ signifying “ he became safe: ” (Msb:) or from فَوَّزَ, (IAar, S, O, * Msb,) or فَازَ. (AHei, TA.) signifying “ he perished,” (IAar, S, O, * AHei,) or “ he died: ” (Msb, TA:) AHei condemns the former of these assertions; but Az and ISd say that it is the more commonly approved, though the latter is the more agreeable with analogy: (TA:) or it is so called because he who comes forth from it, having traversed it, is safe: (IAar, TA:) the pl. is مَفَاوِزُ: (S:) and ↓ مَفَازٌ signifies the same as مَفَازَةٌ. so in a trad. of Kaab Ibn-Málik; فَاسْتَقْبَلَ سَفَرًا بَعِيدًا وَمَفَازًا [and he saw before him, or looked forward to, a far journey and a desert, or a waterless desert, &c.]. (TA.)

(O, * Msb.) 'Alee used often to swear by saying, وَالَّذِى فَلَقَ الحَبَّةَ وَبَرَأَ النَّسَمَةَ [By Him who clave the grain, making it to germinate, and created, or produced, man, or the soul]. (TA.) b2: [Hence,] فَلَقَ الصُّبْحَ, (S,) or الفَجْرَ, (TA,) said of God, (S, * TA,) He made the dawn [to break, or] to appear. (TA.) b3: فلقت النَّخْلَةُ [app. فَلَقَت, the part. n. being فَالِقٌ, q. v.,] means The palm-tree split, or clave, from [around, i. e. so as to disclose,] the spathe. (TA.) b4: And فَلَقَ فِى الأَرْضِ, aor. ـِ inf. n. فَلْقٌ, He ment far into the land; like غَلَقُ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O and TA in art. غلق.) A2: And فَلْقٌ, (K,) as inf. n. of فَلَقَ in the phrase فَلَقَ صُوفَ الجِلْدِ, (TK,) signifies The plucking of the wool of the bide when it has become stinking; like مَرْقٌ. (K, TA. [كالمَرَقِّ, in the CK, is a mistake, for كالمَرْقِ.]) 2 فَلَّقَ see above, first sentence.4 افلق He did, or performed, or he uttered, what was admirable, or wonderful; (S, O, Msb, K, TA;) said of a man, (S, O, TA,) and (TA) of a poet, (S, * O, * Msb, K, TA,) in his poetry; (TA;) as also ↓ افتلق. (S, K.) [From فِلْقٌ, q, v.]

b2: And He brought to pass that which was a calamity; (K;) as also ↓ افتلق. (Lh, TA.) One says to a man, أَعْلَقْتَ وَأَفْلَقْتَ i. e. جِئْتَ بِعُلَقَ فُلَقَ, meaning [Thou hast brought to pass] that which is a calamity. (S, O, K. *) b3: And افلق فِى الأمْرِ He was, or became, skilled in the affair. (TA.) 5 تَفَلَّقَ see 7, first sentence. [Hence] one says, تَصَدَّعَتِ البَيْضَةُ وَلَمْ تَتَفَلَّقْ [The egg cracked, or rather cracked in several places, but did not split apart, or did not split much]. (Az, S in art. قيض.) And of milk such as is termed رَائِب [q. v.] one says تفلّق meaning It became dissundered, or curdled, by reason of intense sourness: or, as heard by Az from some of the Arabs, it, being collected in a skin, and smitten by the heat of the sun, became dissundered, or curdled, so that the milk [or curds] became separate [from the whey]: and of such milk they loathe the drinking. (TA.) b2: And تفلّق الصَّبْحُ: see 7. b3: تفلّق said of a boy: see Q. Q. 2. b4: See also 8, in two places.7 انفلق It became split, cleft, or cloven, or divided lengthwise; it split, clave, or clave asunder; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ تفلّق; (S, Mgh, * K;) [or] the latter signifies تَشَقَّقَ [i. e. it became split, &c., much, or in pieces, or in several or many places]. (O, Msb.) The former occurs in the Kur xxvi. 63, said of the sea [as meaning It clave asunder]. (O.) b2: [Hence,] انفلق الصُّبْحُ (S and K in art. عطس) and ↓ تفلّق (TA in the present art.) The dawn broke. (TA in explanation of the latter.) 8 افتلق He (a man, TA) strove, or exerted himself, so that he excited wonder by reason of his vehemence in running; as also ↓ تفلّق and ↓ تَفَيْلَقَ. (K.) One says, مَرَّ يَفْتَلِقُ فِى عَدْوِهِ, (S, O,) and فِيهِ ↓ يَتَفَلَّقُ, and ↓ يَتَفَيْلَقُ, (O,) He passed along doing what was wonderful by reason of his vehemence in his running. (S, O.) See also 4, in two places. Q.

فَلْقٌ, (AHeyth, TA,) or ↓ فَلَقٌ, (S, O, TA,) the former said by AHeyth to be the more correct, (TA,) A split, fissure, cleft, or longitudinal division; syn. شَقٌّ: pl. فُلُوقٌ: (S, O, TA:) and ↓ فَلَقٌ (Lh, K, TA) [or فَلْقٌ?] signifies also [particularly] a fissure, or cleft, (شَقٌّ) in a mountain; (Lh, K, TA;) and so ↓ فَالِقٌ: (K, TA:) and a شِعْب [app. meaning gap, or ravine, or pass]. (TA.) One says, مَرَرْتُ بِحَرَّةٍ فِيهَا فُلُوقٌ, meaning شُقُوقً [i. e. I passed by a stony tract such as is termed حَرَّة in which were fissures, or clefts]. (S, O.) And فِى رِجْلِهِ فُلُوقٌ i. e. شُقُوقٌ [In his foot, or leg, are fissures or clefts]. (As, S, O, * K.) And كَلَّمَنِى مِنْ فَلْقِ فِيهِ (Lh, S, O, K) and ↓ فِلْقِ فِيهِ, (Lh, S, K,) the former of which is the more known, (TA,) meaning مِنْ شَقِّهِ [He spoke to me from out the fissure of his mouth, i. e., with his lips, not by means of a spokesman]. (K.) and ضرَبَهُ عَلَى فَلْقِ رَأْسِهِ He struck him on the place where his hair was separated, the middle of his head. (TA.) b2: See also فَلَقٌ.

A2: And see the paragraph here following, last quarter.

فِلْقٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

A2: See also فِلْقَةٌ, in two places. b2: Also A rod, or branch, that is split in two, (S, O, K,) [i. e., in halves,] and of which are then made two bows, each whereof is termed فِلْقٌ, (S, O,) [or] each half (كُلُّ شِقٍّ [in the CK شَقٍّ]) of what is thus split is termed فِلْقٌ: (K, TA:) and thus is termed a bow that is made of the half of a branch, (K, TA,) the branch being split in two; and it is also termed قَوْسٌ فِلْقٌ, the latter word being thus used as an epithet, on the authority of Lh: or, as AHn says, the bow termed فِلْقٌ is one of which the wood whereof it has been made has been previously split in two, or three, pieces: and he also says that ↓ فَلِيقٌ [app. for قَوْسٌ فَلِيقٌ] signifies a bow of which the piece of wood has been split in two pieces. (TA.) [See also شَرِيجٌ, in two places: and see فَرْعٌ.]

A3: Also A wonderful thing or affair or case; (S, O, Msb, K;) as also ↓ فَلِيقٌ, (K,) and ↓ فَيْلَقٌ, (TA,) and ↓ فَلِيقَةٌ, (O, * TA,) of which last an ex. occurs in the prov., يَا عَجَبِى لِهٰذَهِ الفَلِيقَهٌ هَلْ تَغْلِبَنَّ القُوَبَآءُ الرِّيقَهُ [O my wonder at this wonderful thing! Does the ringworm indeed overcome the spittle?]: AA says, the meaning is, that he was in wonder at the alteration of usual occurrences; for the spittle usually dispels the ringworm, so he spat upon his ringworm, but it did not become healed: القوبآء is made an agent; and الريقة, an objective complement. (O, TA.) b2: And A calamity, or misfortune; (S, O, K;) as also ↓ فِلْقَةٌ, (K, TA, accord. to the CK ↓ فَلْقٌ,) and ↓ فَلِيقٌ, (O, K,) and ↓ فَلِيقَةٌ, (S, O, K,) and ↓ فَلْقَى (K, TA) or ↓ فَلَقَى, (TA,) and ↓ فَيْلَقٌ, (O and CK,) and ↓ مَفْلَقَةٌ. (IDrd, O, K.) The Arabs say, ↓ يَا لِلْفَلِيقَةِ O [come with succour] to the calamity. (S, O.) And ↓ جَآءَ بِعُلَقَ فُلَقَ, (S, O, K,) imperfectly decl., (S, O,) i. e. [He brought to pass] that which was a calamity: (S, O, K:) and ↓ بِعُلَقً فُلَقٍ: (O, K:) or this means a very wonderful thing. (TA.) فَلَقٌ: see فَلْقٌ, first sentence, in two places. b2: Also The daybreak, or dawn; (S, O, K;) as also ↓ فَلْقٌ, mentioned by Z and others; (TA;) and thus the former has been expl. as signifying in the Kur cxiii. 1: (S, O, TA:) or what has broken (انفلق) of the عَمُود of the dawn; (Fr. K, TA;) i. e. [of the bright gleam of dawn; of the dawn that rises and spreads, filling the horizon with its whiteness; or] the extending light that is like the [long tent called] عَمُود: (TA:) or [simply] the light of daybreak or dawn: (Msb, K: *) or the appearing of the daybreak or dawn: (Zj, TA:) and فَلَقُ الصُّبْحِ signifies the light, and shining, or bright shining, of the daybreak or dawn: (TA:) one says, هُوَأَبْيَنُ مِنْ فَلَقِ الصُّبْحِ and فَرَقِ الصُّبْحِ [It is more distinct than what has broken of the bright gleam of dawn]. (O, TA.) b3: and [hence,] The plain appearing of the truth after its having been dubious. (TA.) A2: Also A law, or depressed, place of the earth, between two kills, or elevated grounds; (As, S, O, K;) as also ↓ فَالِقٌ, (S, O, K,) and ↓ فَالِقَةٌ, (K,) which last is said by Aboo-Kheyreh, or some other, of the Arabs of the desert, to be in the midst of mountains, giving growth to trees, a place where people alight and where camels, or other cattle, remain during the cold night, saying that the ↓ فَالِق is of hard, or hard and level, ground; (TA:) and the pl. of فَلَقٌ is فُلْقَانٌ (S, K, TA) and أَفْلَاقٌ also: (TA:) or فَلَقٌ, (K,) or ↓ فَالِقٌ, (TA,) signifies a wide tract of land or ground, between two extended tracts of sand; (K, TA;) and the pl. of the latter word is فُلْقَانٌ, like as حُجْرَانٌ is pl. of حَاجِرٌ.

جَفْنَة, (TA,) or of this latter the half, (S, O, K, TA,) as in the saying أَعْطِنِى فِلْقَةَ الجَفْنَةِ [Give thou to me the half of the bowl, perhaps meaning, of its contents], (S, O, TA,) or, as some say, one of the divided halves thereof: (TA:) the pl. of فِلْقَةٌ is فِلَقٌ: (Mgh, TA; *) and [↓ فِلَاقٌ is app. a pl., like أَفْلَاقٌ, (and perhaps فُلُوقٌ, mentioned voce فُلَاقٌ,) and ↓ فُلَاقٌ a quasi-pl. n., of ↓ فِلْقٌ, all agreeably with analogy; whence] one says, صَارَ

↓ البَيْضُ فِلَاقًا, and ↓ فُلَاقًا, meaning أَفْلَاقًا, (S, O, K,) i. e. [The eggs became fragments; or it means, became cleft in pieces; or] became much cleft, or cleft in many places. (K, TA. [See also فَلَاقٌ and فِلَاقٌ below.]) A2: See also فِلْقٌ, last quarter.

فَلَقَةٌ [signifies, in the present day, A thick staff, to the ends of which are attacked the two ends of a rope, by means whereof a man's legs are secured, between the rope and the staff, when he is bastinaded; and it is also called ↓ فَلَقٌ: this may perhaps be meant by its being said in the TA, on the authority of Lh, that الفَلَقَةُ signifies الخَشَبَةُ; as also ↓ الفَلْقَةُ].

فَلْقَى, or فَلَقَى: see فِلْقٌ, last quarter.

فُلَاقٌ: see فِلْقَةٌ, in two places. b2: Also, (O, K,) and فُلُوقٌ, (thus in the O,) or ↓ فَلُوقٌ, like صَبُورٌ, (thus in the K, [but this I think questionable,]) Milk becoming, or become, like cheese: (O, K:) [or فُلَاقٌ may be here a quasi-pl. n. of فِلْقٌ (q. v. voce فِلْقَةٌ), so that the meaning may be, that has become cleft portions of curd; and فُلُوقٌ may also mean thus as a pl. of فِلْقٌ. See also the next paragraph.]

فِلَاقٌ: see فِلْقَةٌ, in two places. b2: Also The state of milk's becoming thick and sour, so that it curdles, or becomes dissundered: (IAar, K, TA:) [or it may be here a pl. of فِلْقٌ (q. v. voce فِلْقَةٌ), for in a verse cited by IAar the milk in this case is termed ذُو فِلَاقٍ, so that it may mean the separate portions of curd of milk that has become thick and sour; though it is said in the TA that its pl. is فُلُوقٌ, for this I think very questionable. See also the next preceding paragraph]

فَلُوقٌ: see فُلَاقٌ.

فَلِيقٌ: see فِلْقٌ, former half. b2: Also The depressed place in the جِرَان [or under part of the neck] of the camel, where is the passage of the windpipe: (S, O, K:) or, accord. to Lth, the part that is [as though it were] cleft, of the interior of the neck of the camel: (O, TA:) or, as some say, the part between the [two sinews called the]

عِلْبَاوَانِ, when the fur between these is [as though it were] cleft: and it is not said in relation to a human being. (TA.) b3: And الفَلِيقُ also signifies [The cephalic vein;] a certain vein in the upper arm, (O, K,) that runs to the [cartilage called]

A2: Also A quantity collected together, (فَلِيلَةٌ, K, TA, in the O without any point to the first letter,) or a small quantity, (قَلِيلَةٌ, thus in some copies of the K,) of hair: (O, K, TA:) mentioned by Ibn-'Abbád. (O, TA.) A3: And A sort of broth; thus termed by the people of El-Medeeneh; occurring in a trad. as related by Ibráheem El-Harbee; (O;) or a pottage (قِدْرٌ) that is cooked, and into which fragments (فِلَق, i. e. كِسَر,) of bread are crumbled: (TA:) but accord. to AA, it is called فَرِيقَةٌ only. (O, TA.) فُلُّوقٌ: see مُفَلَّقٌ.

فُلَّيْقٌ: see مُفَلَّقٌ.

(O, K. *) And hence the saying of Áïsheh, إِنَّ البُكَآءَ فَالِقٌ كَبِدِى [Verily weeping is cleaving my liver]. (TA.) b2: Hence, also, in the Kur [vi. 96], فَالِقٌ الإِصْبَاحِ He who causeth the dawn to break: in which instance, also, فالق has reference to the meaning of Creator: (O, TA:) so says Zj. (TA.) b3: نَخْلَةٌ فَالِقٌ means A palmtree splitting, or cleaving from [around, i. e. so as to disclose,] the spathe: (O, K, * TA:) pl. فُلْقٌ. (TA.) b4: الفَوَالِقُ as pl. of الفَالِقُ signifies The veins that divide [so as to form ramifying veins (thus I render ↓ العُرُوقُ المُتَفَلِّقَةُ)] in the human being.

(TA.) فَيْلَقٌ An army; a military force: (S, O, K:) or a great [military force such as is termed]

شَهْبَآءَ, meaning [He assailed them] with a formidable [great] كَتِيبَة. (TA.) b2: And A great, big, or large, man: (O, K:) occurring in this sense in a trad., as an epithet applied to Ed-Dejjál: KT doubted whether it were thus or فَيْلَمٌ; but Az affirms that both have this meaning. (O.) and one says, بُلِىَ فُلَانْ بِامْرَأَةٍ فَيْلَقٍ, meaning [Such a one was tried, or afflicted, with a woman, or wife,] cunning, evil, and clamourous. (TA.) b3: See also فِلْقٌ, in two places.

فعل

1 فَعَلَهُ, (S, O, Msb, K, *) aor. ـَ (S, O, K,) inf. n. فَعْلٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and فَعَالٌ, (S, O, Msb,) and ↓ فِعْلٌ is the subst. therefrom, (S, O, Msb, K, *) but, accord. to Ibn-Kemál, it has become commonly used as the inf. n.; MF, however, says that its being thus used requires consideration; and it is said that there is no instance like فَعَلَهُ, aor. ـْ inf. n. فِعْلٌ, except سَحَرَهُ, aor. ـْ inf. n. سِحْرٌ; or, to these may be added as sometimes occurring, خَدَعَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. خَدْعٌ and خِدْعٌ, and صَرَعَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. صَرْعٌ and صِرْعٌ; (TA;) [He did it]; namely, a thing (S, O. [For further explanation see فِعْلٌ below.]) [In the Kur. xxi. 73,] some read وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِمْ فَعْلَ الْخَيْرَاتِ [And we suggested to them the doing of good works]; (Lth, S, O;) others reading ↓ فِعْلَ الخيرات. (Lth, O.) b2: And one says also فَعَلَ بِهِ [He did to him something]. (TA.) [فَعَلَ اللّٰهُ بِهِ is a form of imprecation, meaning May God do to him what He will do; i. e. may God punish him: see an ex. voce أَظْلَمُ. b3: And فَعَلَ بِالمَرْأَةِ often occurs in trads. &c. as meaning He compressed the woman.]2 تَفْعِيلٌ [inf. n. of فعّل] is used by IJ as metonymically signifying The scanning of a verse; because the names of the measures of its feet, all of them, have the letters ف and ع and ل for constituents, as when you say فَعُولُنْ and مَفَاعِيلنْ and فَاعِلَاتُنْ and فَاعِلُنْ &c. (TA.) 3 فَاْعَلَ [فَاعَلَا, inf. n. فِعَالٌ, if used, app. signifies They two did a thing together.] See فِعَالٌ below.7 انفعل quasi-pass. of 1: you say, فَعَلْتُهُ فَانْفَعَلَ [I did it, and it was done]; (S, Msb;) like your saying كَسَرْتُهُ فَانْكَسَرَ. (S.) [الاِنْفِعَالُ signifies The suffering, or receiving, the effect of an act, whether the effect is intended by the agent or not: or, accord. to some, particularly when the effect is not intended: for it is implied in a passage in the TA, that it is held by some to be used particularly in cases in which the effects are such as the blushing in consequence of confusion, or shame, affecting one from the seeing a person, and the emotion, or excitement, ensuing from the hearing of singing, and the agitation of the passionate lover at his seeing the object of his love : as a term of logic, it is one of the ten predicaments, i. e. passion, or suffering.] It is said that to every فِعْل there is an اِنْفِعَال, except to the act of creation, which proceeds from God; for this is the bringing into existence from a state of nonexistence, not from matter [already existing to receive the effect of the act]. (TA.) 8 افتعل عَلَيْهِ كَذِبًا (Mgh, * O, Msb, * K) and زُورًا (O) He forged against him a lie. (Mgh, * O, Msb, * K.) b2: Hence the phrase الخُطُوطُ تُفْتَعَلُ i. e. [Handwritings] are forged, or falsified. (Mgh.) b3: And [hence] it used to be said, أَعْذَبُ الأَغَانِى مَا افْتُعِلَ i. e. [The sweetest of songs is] such as has been composed with originality, not in imitation of any model: and أَظْرَفُ الشِّعْرِ مَاافْتُعِلَ [The most eloquent of poetry is such as has been so composed]. (TA.) فَعْلٌ an inf. n. of 1. (S, O, Msb, K.) A2: and The vulva of the she-camel, and of any female. (K.) فِعْلٌ: see 1, in two places: [as a subst. from فَعَلَهُ] it signifies [A deed, or an action: or] a motion (حَرَكَةٌ) of a human being: (K:) or, as Sgh says, the origination of anything, whether it be what is termed عَمَلٌ [which means work or labour or service as well as a deed or an action] or other than it; so that it is more general in application than عَمَِلٌ: (TA:) or it is a metonymical term for any عَمَل [meaning deed or action] that is transitive (M, K, TA) or intransitive (M, TA:) or a mode that is accidental to the producer of an effect upon another [person or thing] by reason of the producing of the effect at the first; as the mode that ensues to the cutter by reason of his being cutting: or, as Er-Rághib says, the production of an effect considered with reference to an agent thereof; and it is common to that which is by his, or its, origination or otherwise, and to that which is with knowledge or otherwise, and to that which is by intention or otherwise, and to what proceeds from the human being or the animal [of any kind] or the inanimate thing; and عَمَلٌ and صُنْعٌ are more particular in application: El-Harállee says that the فِعْل is what has become apparent in consequence of a motive of the efficient, whether from knowledge or otherwise, by reason of premeditation [for لِتَدَيُّن (an obvious mistranscription in my original) I read لِتَدَبُّرٍ] or otherwise: and El-Juweynee says that it is what is within the limits of a small space of time, without repetition, or reiteration, whereas the عَمَل is what has been repeated, or reiterated, and whereof the time has been long; but this is repugned by the trad. [in which occurs the saying], مَا فَعَلَ النُِّغَيْر [expl. in art. نغر]; (TA:) the pl. is فِعَالٌ (S, O, Msb, K) and أَفْعَالٌ [a pl. of pauc.], (O, TA,) [and أَفَاعِيلُ is app. a pl. pl., i. e. pl. of أَفْعَالٌ, like أقَاوِيلُ pl. of أَقْوَالٌ which is pl. of قَوْلٌ, and many other instances]: you say, إِنَّ الرِّشَا تَفْتَلُ الأَفَاعِيلَ وَتُنْسِى إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْمَاعِيلَ [Verily bribes do great deeds, and cause the receivers to forget the principles of Ibráheem and Ismá'eel, who are esteemed models of true religion]. (TA. [This saying is written in my original without any vowel-signs, perhaps because well known: and it is there added that الافاعيل may be pl. of افعول (which has been altered by the copyist and is probably a mistranscription for أَفْعُولَةٌ) or of افعال; with other remarks equally doubtful and unimportant.]) [Hence, بِالفِعْلِ meaning Actually; as opposed to بِالقُوَّةِ i. e. potentially, or virtually.] b2: As used by the grammarians, it means [A verb; i. e.] what denotes a meaning in itself together with any one of the three times [past and present and future: but it should be observed that it includes the مَصْدَر, or infinitive noun; and also that there is what is termed فِعْلٌ ناقِصٌ an incomplete, i. e. non-attributive, verb (as كَانَ coordinate to صَارَ, &c.); as well as what is termed فِعْلٌ تَامٌّ a complete, i. e. attributive, verb]. (TA.) فَعْلَةٌ A single فِعْل [i. e. deed or action], (Msb, TA,) with fet-h. (Msb.) Thus in the saying in the Kur [xxvi. 18], وَفَعَلْتَ فَعْلَتَكَ ااَّتِى فَعَلْتَ [lit. And thou hast done thy one deed that thou hast done]; as though the speaker said, فَتَلْتَ النَّفْسَ قَتْللَتَكَ: in which Esh-Shaabee read ↓ فِعْلَتَكَ [thy kind of deed], with kesr, as meaning فَتَلْتَ القِتْلَةَ الَّتِى قَدْ عَرَفْتَهَا: so says Zj; but he adds that the former reading is better. (TA.) And [hence also] one says, كَانَتْ مِنْهُ فَعْلَةٌ حَسَنَةٌ or قَبِيحَةٌ [A good single deed proceeded from him or a bad one]. (S, O, TA.) فِعْلَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

فَعِلَةٌ A custom, manner, habit, or wont. (K.) فِعْلِىٌّ Of, or relating to, a verb.]

فِعْلِيَّةٌ The quality of a verb.]

فَعَالٌ, like نَزَالِ, has sometimes occurred as meaning اِفْعَلْ [Do thou]. (O, K. *) فَعَالٌ, (O, K,) accord. to Lth, (O,) is a name for A good doing, such as liberality, or bounty, (O,) and generosity, (O, K, [the only meaning assigned to it in the S,]) and the like of these: (O:) or, (O, K,) accord. to IAar, (O,) the doing of a single person, peculiarly, [as distinguished from فِعَالٌ, q. v.,] (O,) relating to good and to evil; (O, K;) one says, فُلَانٌ كَرِيمُ الفَعَالِ [Such a one is generous in respect of doing or doings], and فُلَانٌ لَئِيمُ الفَعَالِ [Such a one is mean in respect of doing or doings]; (O: [and the like is said in the T and in the Msb;]) and Az says that this is the correct explanation: not that of Lth; and Mbr [likewise] says, it is used in commendation and in discommendation: (O:) and it is used only of a single agent. (O, K.) b2: It is also an inf. n. (S, O, Msb. [See 1, first sentence.]) فِعَالٌ, as distinguished from فَعَالٌ, signifies A doing that is between two [agents]; (IAar, O, K, TA;) and therefore it is an inf. n. of ↓ فَاعَلَ [a verb of which I have not found any ex.]. (TA.) b2: It is also a pl. of فِعْلٌ. (S, O, Msb, K.

A2: Also The handle, (K,) or piece of wood that is inserted into the hole, (IAar, IB, O,) of the axe, or adz, or hoe: (IAar, IB, O, K:) pl. فُعُلٌ. (K.) فُعَالَةُ (with damm, O, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, فَعالَةُ,]) A metonymical appellation substituted for خُزَاعَةُ, (O, K, TA,) the well-known tribe [thus named]. (TA.) فَعَّالٌ [Wont to do]. (Kur xi. 109 and lxxxv.

16. [Thus in the phrase فَعَّالٌ لِمَا يُرِيدُ Wont to do what He willeth: relating to God.]) فَاعِلٌ [act. part. n. of 1, Doing: and, used as a subst., a doer: and hence] a carpenter is thus called; accord. to IAar: but it is now peculiarly applied to such as works with clay, [and builds, and plasters,] and digs foundations: (TA:) and [the pl.] فَعَلَةٌ, (Mgh, K, TA,) as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. predominates, is applied to workers in clay and digging and the like; (K, TA;) or such as work with their hands in clay or building or digging; like عَمَلَةٌ [pl. of عَامِلٌ]. (Mgh.) b2: وَكُنَّا فَاعِلِينَ, in the Kur [xxi. 79], means And we were able to do what we willed. (O, TA.) And وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ لِلزَّكٰوةِ فَاعِلُونَ, in the same [xxiii. 4], means And who give the ذكوة [or poor-rate]: (Zj, O, TA:) or, as some say, who do that which is good, or righteous. (O, TA.) مُفْتَعَلٌ A writing forged, or falsified. (Mgh.) b2: And Poetry composed with originality, not in imitation of any model. (TA.) b3: جَآءَ بِالْمُفْتَعَلِ, meaning It produced a grievous, or distressing, effect, (K, TA,) is a phrase mentioned by IAar, as used by Ed-Dubeyree when asked respecting a wound that he had received and that rendered him sleepless, and as used by him in respect of anything [unprecedented]: thus one says, عَذَّبَنِى

وَجَعٌ أَسْهَرَنِى فَجَآءَ بِالْمُفْتَعَلِ i. e. [A malady that rendered me sleepless, tormented me,] and produced pain that had not been known before. (TA.)

فكه

1 فَكِهَ, aor. ـَ inf. n. فَكَاهَةٌ (S, Mgh, K) and فَكَهٌ, (K, TA,) [the latter inf. n. correctly thus, agreeably with a general rule, in the CK with the ك quiescent, but said in the TA to be بالتحريك,] (assumed tropical:) He was, or became, cheerful, happy, or free from straitness; (S, Mgh, K;) jocose, or given to jesting, (S, Mgh,) and to laughing: (Mgh, K:) or one who talked to his companions and made them to laugh. (K.) b2: See also 5.2 فَكَّهَهُمْ, inf. n. تَفْكِيهٌ, He brought to them فَاكِهَة [i. e. fruit]. (K.) b2: And [hence] فَكَّهَهُمْ بِمُلَحِ الكَلَامِ, inf. n. as above, (tropical:) He entertained them in a novel manner with facetious sayings or talk. (K, TA.) 3 فاكههُ, (K,) inf. n. مُفَاكَهَةٌ, (S,) (tropical:) He jested, or joked, with him; (S, K, TA;) indulged in pleasantry with him. (TA.) It is said in a prov., لَا تُفَاكِهْ أَمَةً وَلَاتَبُلْ عَلَى أَكَمَةٍ (tropical:) [Jest not thou with a female slave, and make not water upon a hillock, i. e. and publish not what is secret of thine affair: see art. اكم]. (S, TA.) [See also an ex. in a verse cited voce تَزَنَّدَ.]4 أَفْكَهَتْ She (a camel) yielded her milk plentifully on the occasion of eating the [herbage called]

رَبِيع, before her bringing forth: (S, TA:) or she being near to bringing forth, her صَلَوَانِ [app. meaning two parts on the right and left of the tail (see صَلًا in art. صلو)] became lax, or flaccid, and her udder became large; like أَفَكَّت. (TA in art. فك. [See also the part. n., below.]) 5 تفكّه He ate fruit (فَاكِهَة): (Msb, K:) and He took fruit with his hand, [he helped himself to it;] syn. تَنَاوَلَ الفَاكِهَةَ: and hence, as is said in the A, (TA,) the saying in the Kur [lvi. 65], فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ is ironical, meaning [And then ye would be in the condition of] making your fruit to be your saying إِنَّا لَمُغْرَمُونَ Verily we are burdened with debt (which words occur in the next verse)]: or تَفَكَّهَ here [or rather in a case of this kind] means He threw away from himself the fruit: thus says Ibn-'Ateeyeh, (K, TA,) in his exposition: (TA:) [but see other explanations in what follows:] and it signifies also He abstained from fruit: thus it bears two contr. meanings. (K.) b2: And sometimes [it means (tropical:) He amused himself with talk; like as one amuses himself with the eating of fruit after a meal; i. e.] التَّفَكُّهُ is metaphorically used as meaning التَّنَقُّلُ بِالحَدِيثِ. (Bd in lvi. 65.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) He affected jesting, or joking. (TA.) b4: And تفكّهوا بِفُلَانٍ (assumed tropical:) They spoke evil of such a one; or did so in his absence; and defamed him; and did thus with jesting, one with another. (TA.) b5: And تفكّه بِهِ (assumed tropical:) He enjoyed it: (S, Msb, K:) and [particularly] (Msb) he enjoyed the eating of it. (Mgh, Msb.) b6: And تفكّه also signifies (assumed tropical:) He wondered, (S, Msb, K,) مِنْهُ at it; and so ↓ فَكِهَ, followed likewise by منه. (K.) And hence [accord. to some] the saying in the Kur cited above, فَظَلْتُمْ تَفَكَّهُونَ i. e. (assumed tropical:) [And then ye would be in the condition of] wondering at what had befallen you in respect of your seed-produce. (TA.) b7: And He repented, grieved, lamented, or regretted: (IAar, S, K:) and the words of the Kur cited in the last sentence above, (S, TA,) as expl. by some, (TA,) mean [And then ye would be in the condition of] repenting, &c.: (S, TA:) and so تَفَكَّنُونَ, which is of the dial. of 'Okl; or, accord. to Lh, Temeem say تَتَفَكَّنُونَ, and AzdShanoo-ah say تَتَفَكَّهُونَ. (TA.) 6 تَفَاكُهٌ signifies The jesting, or joking, [or indulging in pleasantry, (see 3,) of a number of persons,] one with another, (K.) [You say, تفاكهوا They jested, &c., one with another.]

(TA.) b2: Also, (S, Mgh, K,) and ↓ فَاكِهٌ, (K, TA, in the CK فَاكِهَةٌ,) and ↓ فيكهان [app. فَيْكَهَانٌ or فَيْكِهَانٌ, like تيَّهَانٌ], (Az, TA,) (assumed tropical:) Cheerful, happy, or free from straitness; (Az, S, Mgh, K;) jocose, or given to jesting, (Az, S, Mgh,) and to laughing: (Mgh, K:) or the first, (K, TA,) and second, (K,) one who talks to his companions and makes them to laugh: (K, TA:) and فَكِهَاتٌ, applied to women, cheerful, happy, or free from straitness. (TA.) b3: And فَكِهٌ signifies also (assumed tropical:) Exulting, or rejoicing above measure; or exulting greatly, and behaving insolently and unthankfully, or ungratefully: (S, TA:) and thus the pl. فَكِهِينَ signifies in the Kur (S, Mgh) xlix. 26 [as some there read]: (S:) ↓ فَاكِهِينَ [is the more common reading and] means enjoying an easy and a pleasant life; or enjoying case and plenty. (S, Mgh.) b4: And (assumed tropical:) Wondering: and thus some explain the pl. فَكِهُونَ in the Kur xxxvi. 55. (TA.) b5: هُوَ فَكِهٌ بِأَعْرَاضِ النَّاسِ means (tropical:) He is one who delights in speaking evil of men, or in doing so in their absence. (K, TA.) فَكِيهْ is said by Golius to signify “ Qui proloqui non potest,” on the authority of the KL: but in my copy of the KL, I find that the word to which this meaning is assigned is فَهِيهٌ.]

فُكَاهَةٌ, a subst. [as distinguished from the inf. n. فَكَاهَةٌ], (S, K,) A jesting, or joking; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) as also ↓ فَكِيهَةٌ. (K.) فَكِيهَةٌ: see what next precedes.

فَاكِهٌ Possessing فَاكِهَة [i. e. fruit]; (K, TA:) an epithet of the same class as تَامِرٌ and لَابِنٌ: or, accord. to Aboo-Mo'ádh the grammarian, one whose fruit has become abundant. (TA.) b2: See also فَكِهٌ, in two places. b3: And [the fem.] فَاكِهَةٌ, (assumed tropical:) A palm-tree (نَخْلَةٌ) inducing wonder, or admiration, and pleasure, or joy; or pleasing, or (??) joicing; [app. by its having much fruit;] syn. مُعْجِبَةٌ. (K.) فَاكِهَةٌ a word of well-known meaning, (S,) Fruit, of any kind; (K;) a thing, or things, the eating whereof is enjoyed, (Mgh, Msb,) whether moist or dry, as figs and melons and raisins and pomegranates: (Msb:) [the words, of the Kur lv. 68, فِيهِمَا فَاكِهَةٌ وَنَخْلٌ وَرُمَّانٌ have caused it to be much and vainly disputed whether dates and pomegranates be, or be not, included among the things termed فاكهة: it seems to be the general opinion of the lexicologists that they are included; but the contrary opinion is held by many of the lawyers, and by the Imám Aboo-Haneefeh among them:] the pl. is فَوَاكِهُ, meaning kinds thereof. (S.) b2: And (by way of comparison [thereto], TA) (tropical:) Sweetmeat; syn. حَلْوَآء; (K;) which is also applied by some to “ fruit ” (فاكهة), (T in art. حلو,) or to “ sweet fruit. ” (K in that art.) b3: And فَاكِهَةُ الشِّتَآءِ [lit. The fruit of winter] is metonymically used as meaning (tropical:) the fire. (Har p. 594.) فَاكِهِىٌّ: see فَاكِهَانِىٌّ.

(TA [in which the meaning is indicated by the context].) أُفْكُوهَةٌ i. q. أُعْجُوبَةٌ (assumed tropical:) [A wonderful thing]. (K.) You say, جَآءَ فُلَانٌ بِأُفْكُوهَةٍ (assumed tropical:) [Such a one did, or uttered, a wonderful thing]. (TA.) مُفْكِهٌ (Az, S, K) and مُفْكِهَةٌ (K) A she-camel whose milk is thick, (K, TA,) like biestings: (TA:) or that yields her milk plentifully on the occasion of eating the [herbage called] رَبِيع, before her bringing forth: (S:) or whose milk pours forth on the occasion of parturition, before her bringing forth: or, accord. to Sh, the meaning is that indicated by the second explanation of the verb, 4 [q. v.].

(IAar in TA.) b2: [Hence,] لَمَسَهَا, (M, A, Msb, K,) aor. ـُ (M) [and لَمِسَ, as implied in the K], inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (S, M,) (tropical:) Inivit eam; (I'Ab, S, M, A, Msb, K;) scil. mulierem; (A, Msb;) puellam; (K;) as also ↓ لَامَسَهَا, (M, A, Msb,) inf. n. مُلَامَسَةٌ (I'Ab, S, Msb, K) and لِمَاسٌ: (I'Ab, Msb:) and (assumed tropical:) he kissed her; by doing which, as well as by the former, one renders necessary the performance of the ablution termed وضوء. ('Abd-Allah Ibn-'Amr, Ibn-Mes'ood.) b3: [Hence also,] لَمَسَهُ, aor. ـُ [and لَمِسَ], (A, TA,) inf. n. لَمْسٌ, (IDrd, Msb, TA,) (tropical:) He sought, [as though by feeling,] or sought for or after, it, namely, a thing, (IDrd, Msb, TA,) in any manner; (IDrd, Msb;) [as, for instance, by asking, or demanding;] as also ↓ التمسهُ, (S, M, A, * K, TA,) [which is more common,] and ↓ تلمّسهُ: (M, TA:) or this last signifies he sought it, or sought for or after it, repeatedly, or time after time. (S, K, TA.) You say, أُلْمُسْ لِى فُلَانًا (A, TA) (tropical:) Seek thou for me such a one. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [lxxii. 8,] relating the words of the jinn, or genii, إِنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَآءَ, (K, * TA, *) (tropical:) Verily we sought to reach heaven: or to learn the news thereof: (Bd:) or to hear by stealth what was said therein: (Jel:) or we laboured, or strove, after (عَالَجْنَا) the secrets of heaven, and sought to hear them by stealth. (K.) And in a trad., بِهِ عِلْمًا ↓ مَنْ سَلَكَ طَرِيقًا يَلْتَمِسُ (tropical:) Whoso pursueth a way whereby he seeketh after knowledge, or science. (TA.) And in another, of 'Áïsheh, عِقْدِى ↓ فَالْتَمَسْتُ (tropical:) And I sought for my necklace. (TA.) b4: لَمَسَ البَصَرَ, aor. ـُ (tropical:) It took away the sight. (A, TA.) And the same, or, accord. to one relation of a trad., ↓ التمسهُ, (assumed tropical:) It took away quickly, and destroyed, the sight; said there of certain serpents: or the meaning is, (assumed tropical:) it aimed at the eye with its bite: and لَمَسَ عَيْنَهُ is said to signify [(assumed tropical:) he, or it, put out his eye,] the same as سَمَلَ. (TA.) 3 لامسهُ, inf. n. مُلَامَسَةٌ and لِمَاسٌ: for its proper signification, see 1, in three places. [Hence,] بَيْعُ المُلَامَسَةِ, (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb,) and بَيْعُ اللِّمَاسِ, (Mgh,) or المُلَامَسَةُ فِى البَيْعِ, (K,) A mode of bargaining, which consists in saying, When thou feelest, or touchest, my garment, or I feel, or touch, thy garment, (A, K,) or when, (Mgh,) or if, (Msb,) I feel, or touch, thy garment, and thou feelest, or touchest, my garment, (Mgh, Msb,) or when I feel, or touch, the thing to be sold, (S,) the sale is binding, or settled, or concluded, (S, A, Mgh, Msb, K,) between us, (S, Msb,) for such a sum: (S, Msb, K:) or, accord. to Aboo-Haneefeh, in thy saying, I will sell to thee this commodity for such a sum, and when I feel, or touch, thee, the sale is binding, or settled, or concluded; or in the purchaser's saying the like: (Mgh:) or, (M, Mgh, K,) as in the Sunan of Aboo-Dáwood, (Mgh,) in purchasing a commodity on the condition of feeling it (M, Mgh, * K, *) behind a garment or piece of cloth, (K,) without seeing it, (M, K,) or spreading it out and turning it over and examining it: (Mgh:) or on the condition that the feeling it with the hand shall cut one off from the choice of returning it: (TA:) the mode of bargaining thus termed is forbidden. (S, M, A, Mgh, Msb.) b2: For a tropical signification of the verb, see 1.4 أَلْمِسْنِى الجَارِيَةَ Permit thou me to feel, or touch, the girl. (A, TA.) b2: أَلْمِسْنِى امْرَأَْةً (tropical:) Marry thou to me a woman. (A, TA.) 5 تَلَمَّسَ see 1, in two places.8 إِلْتَمَسَ see 1, in four places.

لَمُوسٌ A she-camel of whose fatness one doubts; (O, TS, K;) on the authority of Ibn-'Abbád; (TA;) i. q. شَكُوكٌ and ضَبُوثٌ: (A, TA:) or of whose hump one doubts, whether there be in her fat or not; wherefore it is felt: (M, L:) pl. لُمُسٌ. (M, K.) b2: [Hence,] (tropical:) One whose origin, or lineage, is suspected; syn. دَعِىٌّ: (K:) or in whose grounds of pretention to respect is a fault, or taint. (A, K.) لَمِيسٌ A woman soft to the feel, or touch; لَيِّنَةُ المَلْمَسِ. (K.) لَمَاسَةٌ, (M,) لُمَاسَةٌ, (S,) or both, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) A want: (IAar, Sgh:) or a moderate, or middling, want. (S, M, O, L.) لَمُوسَةٌ A road, or way: so called because he who has lost his way seeks it in order to find the track of the travellers. (K, * TA.) لَامِسٌ act. part. n. of 1. (Msb, &c.) One says, of a woman who commits adultery, or fornication, or acts viciously, فَلَانَةُ لَا تَرُدُّ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (A, TA,) or لَا تَمْنَعُ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (K,) but the latter is at variance with the written authorities, the former being the phrase commonly known, (TA,) [properly signifying, Such a woman does not repel the hand of a feeler;] meaning, (tropical:) such a woman commits adultery, or fornication, and acts viciously, (K, TA,) not repelling from herself any one who desires of her that he may lie with her; (TA;) and she is suspected of easiness, or compliance, (K, TA,) towards him who desires of her that he may lie with her: (TA:) or the meaning is, such a woman gives, of her husband's property, what is sought, or demanded, from her; and this is more probably meant in a trad. in which a man is related to have said thus of his wife; because Mohammad directed him to retain her, and did not require him to divorce her. (TA.) The like said of a man, (K,) فُلَانٌ لَا يَرُدُّ يَدَ لَامِسٍ, (A, Msb,) means, (tropical:) Such a man has in him no force of resistance, (A, Msb, K,) nor care of what is sacred, or inviolable. (TA.) مَلْمَسٌ [A place that is felt, or touched: and it may also be an inf. n.: see لَمِيسٌ]. (K.) إِكَافٌ مَلْمُوسُ الأَحْنَآءِ (tropical:) An ass's saddle, or pad, of which the curved pieces of wood have been felt with the hands until they have become even: (M:) or of which any unevenness and prominence that was therein has been pared off (Lth, T, A, K) by the passing of the hand over it, (Lth, T,) or of the hands.
