(S, K.) The dim. is ↓ قُلَيْنِسَةٌ and ↓ قُلَيْسِيَةٌ and ↓ قُلَيْنِيسَةٌ and ↓ قُلَيْسِيَّةٌ: (S, K:) but not قُلَيْنِيسِيَةٌ; for the Arabs form no dim. of a word of five [or more] letters so as to preserve all the letters, unless the fourth be a letter of prolongation.

And (assumed tropical:) It (food) was astringent in taste; as also ↓ تَقَبَّضَ.] b6: As such also, قَبَضَهُ, signifies (assumed tropical:) He straitened it; scanted it; made it scanty. (Msb, TA.) You say, قَبَضَ اللّٰهُ الرِزْقَ, aor. and inf. n. as first mentioned, (assumed tropical:) God straitened, scanted, or made scanty, the means of subsistence. (Msb.)

(Az, TA.) قَبْضٌ and بَسْطٌ are terms applied by the investigators of truth among the Soofees to two contrary states of the heart, from both of which it is seldom or never free: the former being an affection of the heart withholding it from dilatation and joy; whether the cause thereof be known, as the remembrance of a sin or an offence, or of an omission, or be not known; and some of them make other divisions thereof. (TA.) [In like manner] you say also, عَنَّا فَمَا قَبَضَكَ ↓ اِنْقَبَضْتُ (tropical:) [Thou shrankest from us: and what made thee to shrink?]. (A.) b9: [As such also, (tropical:) He, or it, made him close-fisted, tenacious, or niggardly.] You say, الخَيْرُ يَقْبِضُهُ وَالشَّرُّ يَبْسُطُهُ (tropical:) [Wealth makes him close-fisted, tenacious, or niggardly; and poverty makes him open-handed, liberal, or generous]. (A.) 2 قَبَّضَ see a remark appended to the first sentence in this art. : b2: see also فَبَضَهُ as contr. of بَسَطَهُ, in six places. b3: قَبَّضَهُ المَالَ, (S, * M, K, *) or المَتَاعَ, (A,) inf. n. تَقْبِيضٌ, (S, K,) He gave to him, (S, M, K,) in his grasp, or possession, (K,) i. e. to him who should receive it, (S,) the property, (S, M,) or commodity, or commodities, or goods; (A;) i. e. he transferred it to his possession; (TA;) [lit. he made him to take it, to take it with his hand, to grasp it, or to receive it;] as also إِيَّاهُ ↓ أَقْبَضَهُ.

(S, K.) 5 تقبّض quasi-pass. of قَبَّضَهُ as contr. of بَسَطَهُ; (M;) as also ↓ اِنْقَبَضَ is of قَبَضَهُ in the same sense, (S, * M, K, *) being contr. of اِنْبَسَطَ. (S, K.) [As such,] both signify (assumed tropical:) It became drawn, collected, or gathered, together; or it drew, collected, or gathered, itself together; or contracted; or shrank; syn. of the former, تَجَمَّعَ; (TA;) and of the latter, اِنْضَمَّ [which also signifies it became drawn and joined, or adjoined, to another thing; &c.]. (O, K.) So the latter signifies in the phrase فِى حَاجَتِى ↓ انقبض (assumed tropical:) [It became comprised in, or adjoined to, the object of my want].

القَبَضِ (A, Mgh) Throw thou it among the things that have been taken: (Mgh:) said to Saad Ibn-Abee- Wakkás, when he slew Sa'eed Ibn-El-'Ás, and took his sword: so in a trad. (TA.) and in another trad. it is said, جُعِلَ سَلْمَانُ عَلَى قَبَضٍ

Selmán was set over spoils that were taken and yet undivided, to guard and divide them. (Mgh.) قَبْضَةٌ: [pl. قَبَضَاتٌ:] see قَبْضٌ, in three places. b2: See also قُبْضَةٌ, in four places. b3: And see مَقْبِضٌ. b4: Also, [The measure of a man's fist, from side to side;] four finger-breadths; (Mgh, Msb, voce جَرِيبٌ;) the sixth part of the common ذِرَاع [or cubit: but in the present day, the measure of a man's fist with the thumb erect; which is about six inches and a quarter]: pl. قَبَضَاتٌ.

See two other exs. of the second word, and an ex. of the third, in 1, before the first break in the paragraph. It is also said in the Kur, [xxxix. 67,] وَالْأَرْضُ جَمِيعًا يَوْمَ القِيَامَةِ ↓ قَبْضَتُهُ, i. e. قُبْضَتُهُ, for قَبْضَةٌ is an inf. n. [of un.] used as a subst., or is for ذَاتُ قَبْضَةٍ, (Bd,) and the literal signification is, [And the earth altogether shall be] his handful [on the day of resurrection]; (Bd, Jel;) meaning in his possession (Jel, TA) alone, (TA,) and at his free and absolute disposal: (Jel:) Th says, that this is like the phrase هٰذِهِ الدَّارُ فِى قَبْضَتِى, meaning as explained above, voce قَبْضٌ; but this opinion is not valid:) (M:) another reading is ↓ قَبْضَتَهُ, in the accus. case, (M, Bd,) as an adv. n.; that which is determinate being thus likened to what is vague; (Bd;) and this is allowed by some of the grammarians; but it is not allowed by any one of the grammarians of El-Basrah. (M.) It is also said, in the trad. of Bilál and the dates, فَجَعَلَ يَجِىْءُ بِهِ قُبَضًا قُبَضًا [And he set about bringing them (the pronoun referring to التَّمْر the dates) handfuls by handfuls]. (TA.) قُبَضَةٌ, (K,) or قُبَضَةٌ رُفَضَةٌ, (S, M, A, TA,) to this latter, not to the former alone, the following explanation applies, (TA,) A man who lays hold upon a thing, and then leaves it without delay. (S, M, A, K.) And the former, A pastor who draws his sheep or goats together, not going far and wide in pasturing them: (S:) or who manages well (A, K) for his sheep or goats, (K,) or for his beasts, collecting them together, and, when he finds a place of pasture, spreads them abroad: (A:) and the latter, a pastor who manages well, and is gentle with his pasturing beasts, collecting them together and driving them, when their place of pasturage becomes wanting in herbage, and, when they light upon a piece of herbage, leaves them to spread abroad and pasture at pleasure: (Az, TA:) or who collects together his camels, and drives them until he brings them whithersoever he will.
