(TA.)

أَفْحُلٌ: (K:) and ↓ فَحِيلٌ signifies the same as فَحْلٌ; (Kr, TA;) and [particularly] a فَحْل of the camels. (S, O, TA.) b2: Hence الفَحْلُ is an appellation of (tropical:) Canopus (سُهَيْلٌ); because it is aloof from the other stars, like the فحل which, when he has covered, goes aloof from the [she-] camels: (S, O, K, TA:) or, as some say, it is so called because of its greatness.

'Alkameh] to have overcome him [Imra-el-Keys] in poetry. (S, O, K, TA.) b5: فَحْلٌ also means [app. (assumed tropical:) A vigorous orator: see هَادِرٌ. b6: And] (tropical:) A relater, reciter, or rehearser, by heart, [of poetry, and of traditions, or narratives learned, or heard, or received, from another or others;] syn. رَاوٍ: pl. فُحُولٌ: (K, TA:) so in the M.

(K.) [Hence,] بَعِيرٌ ذُو فِحْلَةٍ A camel fit, or meet, for being chosen as a stallion. (TA.) b2: Also, i. e. فِحْلَةٌ, with kesr, A man's choosing a فَحْل [i. e. stallion] for his beasts. (TA.) فَحِيلٌ: see فَحْلٌ, first sentence. b2: One says also فَحْلٌ فَحِيلٌ, meaning A generous stallioncamel, that begets generous offspring.

أُمَّاتُهُنَّ وَطَرْقُهُنَّ فَحِيلَا [Their mothers were of the generous camels of Mundhir and Moharrik, and their compressing stallion was a generous one, a begetter of generous offspring]: (S [accord. to one of my copies], and TA:) [some copies of the S have نَجَائِبُ and أُمَّاتِهِنّ; and so has the O: but] IB says that the verse is correctly related as above. (TA.) b3: And كَبْشٌ فَحِيلٌ means A ram that resembles the فَحْل of camels in his excellence (K, TA) and his [comparative] greatness. (TA.) b4: See also فَحْلٌ again, third sentence.

(Msb.) شَجَرٌ مُتَفَحِّلٌ (tropical:) Trees that do not bear fruit; like the ↓ فَحْل: (Ibn-'Abbád, A, O, TA:) that become barren. (A, TA.) [See also what follows.]

(Er-Rághib, MF and TA in art. سكت.) The Arabs say, (Ks, TA,) and it is said in a trad., (TA,) لَا صَمْتَ يَوْمًا إِلَى اللَّيْلِ, or يَوْمٌ, or يَوْمٍ, i. e. There shall be no keeping silence a whole day [until night]. (Ks, K, TA. [In the “ Jámi' es-Sagheer,” we find لا صُمَاتَ instead of لا صَمْتَ: and El-Munáwee, in his Commentary on that work, says that the keeping silence for a whole day is forbidden by the words of this trad. because it is an imitation of a Christian custom.]) And إِذْنُهَا صُمَاتُهَا [in another trad., relating to the asking a virgin if she consent to be married, lit. Her permission is her silence,] means her silence is like her permission, i. e. it suffices. (Msb.) One says also, جَآءَ بِمَا صَآءَ وَصَمَتَ (assumed tropical:) [He brought what was vocal and what was mute]; مَا صَآءَ meaning sheep, or goats, and camels; and مَا صَمَتَ, gold and silver: (IAar, TA:) صَآءَ in this saying is formed by transposition from صَأَى [q. v.]. (S in art. صأى.) 2 صمّتهُ, (M, A, K,) inf. n. تَصْمِيتٌ; (S;) and ↓ اصمتهُ; (M, A, Msb, K;) He made him, or rendered him, silent, mute, or speechless: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he made him, or rendered him, long silent or mute or speechless. (M.) b2: [Hence,] صَمِّتِى صَبِيَّكِ Feed thy child with that which will silence it [or quiet it]. (A, TA.) b3: and صمّت الرَّجُلَ He inclined to the man who complained to him by reason of his complaint [and so quieted him; or he cared for the complaint of the man and so quieted him; see مُصَمِّتٌ]. (M, TA.) A2: See also 1, first sentence.4 اصمتهُ: see 2. b2: [Hence,] لَمْ يُصْمِتْهُ ذٰلِكَ That did not suffice him [so as to quiet him]: said only of what is eaten and drunk. (TA.) b3: and اصمتهُ He made it to be solid, not hollow; without a cavity. (A'Obeyd, S, K.) [For that which is without a cavity is generally non-sonorous.] b4: And أُصْمِتَتِ الأَرْضُ, or أَصْمَتَت, (accord. to different copies of the K, the latter accord. to the O,) The land became altered (أَحَالَت) [so as to be rugged, or hard, app. in consequence of its having been left untilled and unsown,] at the end of two years, (O, K,) and had rugged patches of urine and dung. (O.) A2: See also 1, first sentence. b2: أَصْمَتَ also signifies He was, or became, tonguetied, (O, TA,) and spoke not; (TA;) said of a sick man. (O, TA.) صُمْتَةٌ a subst. from صَمَتَ [as such signifying Silence, muteness, or speechlessness; like صَمْتٌ used as a subst., and صُمْتٌ &c.; and like سُكْتَةٌ and سِكْتَةٌ]. (M, TA.) b2: And (M, TA) A thing, (M, A, K, TA,) i. e. food, (A, K, TA,) or the like, (K, TA,) such as a date, or something pretty, (TA,) with which one silences [or quiets] (M, A, K, TA) a child; (A, K, TA;) as also ↓ صِمْتَةٌ; (Lh, M, TA;) like سُكْتَةٌ [in this sense as well as in the former sense]. (S.) A date is called صُمْتَةُ الصَّبِىِّ [The quieter of the child], (M, TA,) and صُمْتَةُ الصَّغِيرِ [The quieter of the little one], so in a trad., because when the little one cries, or weeps, he is silenced with it. (TA.) One says, مَا عِنْدَهَا صُمْتَةُ لَيْلَةٍ She has not as much as would silence [or quiet] her child during one night. (A.) and مَا لَهُ صُمْتَةٌ لِعِيَالِهِ and ↓ صِمْتَةٌ He has not what would feed and silence [or quiet] his household, or family. (Lh, M.) صِمْتَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in two places.

(K.) رَمَاهُ بِصُمَاتِهِ, (Az, K, A, K, [in a copy of the M بصِمَاتِه, but this I think a mistranscription,]) or ↓ بِصُمَاتَةٍ, (K accord. to the TA, and so in the M in art. سكت,) [both probably correct, for] one says also بِسُكَاتِهِ (Az, S) and بِسُكَاتَةٍ, (S, M, A, K, in art. سكت,) He (a man, Az, S, or God, A) smote him, or afflicted him, with a thing that silenced him. (Az, S, M, A, K.) [See رَمَاهُ بِسُكَاتٍ, in art. سكت.] b2: صُمَاتٌ signifies also Thirst: (As, TA:) or quickness of thirsting, (M, K, TA,) in men and in beasts. (M, TA.) فُلَانٌ عَلَى صِمَاتِ الأَمْرِ Such a one is, or was, at the point of accomplishing the affair. (S.) And أَنَا عَلَى صِمَاتِ حَاجَتِى I am at the point of accomplishing my want. (M.) And بَاتَ عَلَى

(T, TA.) b2: [Hence, ذَيَّلْتُ كِتَابَهُ (assumed tropical:) I added an appendix to his writing, or book; like ذَنَّبْتُهُ. And hence, the inf. n. تَذْيِيلٌ is used to signify (assumed tropical:) An appendix; like تَذْنِيبٌ; as also ↓ ذَيْلٌ.]

(Msb.) It is said in a trad., (S, M,) of the Prophet, (M,) نَهَى عَنْ إِذَالَةِ الخَيْلِ, (S, M,) i. e. [He forbade] the using of horses for mean work, and burdens. (S, TA.) b4: and أَذْلْتُهَا I rendered her lean; or emaciated her; namely, a woman, and a camel. (TA.) 5 تذيّلت الدَّابَّةُ The beast moved about its tail.

ذَيْلٌ The latter, or kinder, or the last, or kindmost, part of anything. (M, K.) Accord. to MF, this is the proper signification, and the other significations here following are tropical. (TA.) [But in my opinion, the word in each of the next two senses, or at least in the former of them; if not strictly proper, is what is termed حَقِيقَةٌ عُرْفِيَّةٌ, i. e. a word so much used in a tropical sense as to be, in that sense, conventionally regarded as proper.] b2: [A skirt, or lower extremity, of a garment, reaching nearly, or quite, to the ground, or that is dragged upon the ground, when made to hang down:] the extremity, of a garment, that is next the ground, and so if not touching it [as well as if touching it]; an inf. n. used in this sense: (Msb:) or the part of a waist-wrapper (إِزَار), and of a garment [of any kind], that is dragged [upon the ground], (M, K,) when it is made to hang down: (M:) or the part, of an إِزَار, and of a [garment of the kind called] رِدَآء, that is made to hang down, and touches the ground: and the part, of any kind of garment worn by a woman, that the wearer drags upon the ground behind her: (Lth, T:) or the parts, all round, of a woman's garment, that fall upon the ground: and the portion that is made to hang down, of a woman's shift and of her قِنَاع [or head-covering]: you do not [properly] say of a man that he has a ذَيْل [but only when you liken the lower part of his garment to the similar part of a woman's garment]: a man's having a long garment, such as a shirt and a جُبَّة, [or his dragging the skirt thereof,] is termed إِرْفَالٌ: (Khálid Ibn-Jembeh, T:) the pl. of ذَيْلٌ (in this sense, T, Msb, as relating to a shirt [&c.], S, and in all its senses, T, M) is أَذْيَالٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and أَذْيُلٌ (El-Hejeree, M, K) [both pls. of pauc.] and ذُيُولٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) which is a pl. of mult. (M.) Hence طُولُ الذَّيْلِ is a metonymical expression meaning (tropical:) Richness, or competency; because long أَذْيَال generally pertain to the rich and the prodigal and the proud and self-conceited: (Er-Rázee, Har p. 493:) and you say, طَالَ ذَيْلُ فُلَانٍ, meaning (tropical:) The state, or condition, of such a one became good, and his wealth became abundant: and هُوَ طَوِيلُ الذَّيْلِ, meaning (tropical:) He is rich. (Har p. 319.) b3: Of a horse (T, K) &c., (K,) [i. e.] of a horse and a camel and the like, (M,) The tail: (T, M, K:) or the tail when long: (TA:) or the part, of the tail, that is made to hang down. (M, K.) b4: [(assumed tropical:) Of a cloud, The skirt; or lower, pendent, part: used in this sense in the K voce هَيْدَبٌ.] b5: ذَيْلُ الرِّيحِ (assumed tropical:) What is dragged along, (T, S, O,) or drawn together, (M,) by the wind, upon the ground, (T, S, O, M,) of dust (T, M, O) and rubbish: (T, O:) or what the wind leaves upon the sand, (M, K,) in the form of a rope, (M,) resembling the track of a ذَيْل [or skirt] dragged along: (M, K:) or, as some say, أَذْيَالُالرِّيحِ means (assumed tropical:) the after-parts of the wind, with which it sweeps what is light to it. (M.) b6: ذَيْلُ جَبَلٍ (assumed tropical:) The foot, bottom, base, or lowest part, of a mountain. (A and TA voce جَرٌّ.) b7: أَذْيَالُ النَّاسِ (assumed tropical:) The hindmost of the people. (K.) You say, جَآءَ أَذْيَالٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ (assumed tropical:) Some few of the hindmost of the people came. (S, Sgh.) b8: See also 2.

(M.) ذَائِلٌ, applied to a horse, Having a ذَيْل, (T, K,) i. e. tail: (T:) and ↓ ذَيَّالٌ having a long ذَيْل: (T, K:) or the former word has the latter signification; (IKt, T, M;) it means having a long tail: (S:) and ↓ the latter word, tall, and having a long ذَيْل, (M, K,) and that carries himself in an elegant and a proud and self-conceited manner, in his step; (K;) and is applied in the same sense to a wild bull: (M:) or the former word signifies short, and having a long tail; and its fem. is with ة: (T:) or when a horse is of this description, they say الذَّنَبِ ↓ ذَيَّالُ, mentioning the ذَنَب. (T, S.) b2: Also, applied to a دِرْع, (S, M, K,) [i. e. a coat of mail, as is shown in the S and TA,] Long (S, M, K) in the ذَيْل [or shirt]; (S;) and so ذَائِلَةٌ and ↓ مُذَالَةٌ. (M, K. [In the CK, the last word is erroneously written مَذَالَةٌ.]) b3: And حَلْقَةٌ ذَائِلَةٌ and ↓ مُذَالَةٌ A ring [app. of a coat of mail] that is slender (M, K *) and elongated. (M.) A2: ذَائِلٌ ↓ ذَيْلٌ [an expression like ذُلٌّ ذَلِيلٌ, the former word an inf. n.,] means [Exceeding] lowness, baseness, vileness, meanness, contemptibleness, or ignominiousness. (S.) مُذَالٌ; fem. with ة: see the latter in the next preceding paragraph, in two places. b2: The fem. also means (assumed tropical:) A female slave: (T, S, M:) because she is held in low, or mean, estimation, while she carries herself in an elegant and a proud and selfconceited manner: so in the prov., أَخِيلُ مِنْ مُذَالَةٍ

[More proud and self-conceited than a female slave]. (S, K.) مُذْيِلٌ [so in my MS. copy of the K, as in the M, but in other copies of the K مُذَيَّلٌ,] and ↓ مُتَذَيِّلٌ [in the CK مُتَذَيَّلٌ] i. q. مُتَبَذِّلٌ [One who performs his own work; or who is careless of himself or his honour or reputation]. (M, K.) مُذَيَّلٌ A garment, (T,) of the kind called مُلَآء, (T, S,) or رِدَآء, (K,) Long (T, S, K) in the ذَيْل [or skirt]. (S, K.) So in a verse of Imra-el- Keys, of which the latter hemistich is cited voce دُوَارٌ. (T, TA.) أَرْضٌ مُتَذَيَّلَةٌ A land upon which has fallen a weak and small quantity (لَطْخٌ ضَعِيفٌ) of rain.

صِفْقٌ, with kesr, The مِصْرَاع [i. e. either half, or leaf,] of a door [meaning of a folding door]: (K:) [or, accord. to the O, it is ↓ صَفْقٌ, for it is there said that صَفْقَا البَابِ means مِصْرَاعَاهُ; but SM follows the reading in the K without remarking upon the difference in the O; and adds,] and one says, بَابُ دَارِهِ صِفْقٌ وَاحِدٌ [meaning The door of his house is one leaf; i. e.] when it does not consist of what are termed مِصْرَاعَانِ.

(TA.) صَفْقَةٌ A striking of the hand [of one person] upon the hand [of another] in [ratifying] a sale or purchase and a covenant: (Mgh:) and ↓ صَفْقٌ is [used in the same sense, being an inf. n. and also] a subst. from the verb in the phrase صَفَقَ يَدَهُ بِالبَيْعَةِ [expl. in the first paragraph of this art.]; (M, K;) as also ↓ صِفِقَّى, like زِمِجَّى, (K,) or ↓ صِفَقَّى, (so in a copy of the M,) which is mentioned by Sb, (M, TA,) and of which Seer says that it may be from صَفْقُ الكَفِّ عَلَى الأُخْرَى.

And إِنَّهُ لَمُبَارَكُ الصَّفْقَةِ [Verily he is blessed in respect of bargaining]; meaning that he buys not anything without gaining in it. (TA.) And قَدِ اشْتَرَيْتُ اليَوْمَ صَفْقَةً

صَالِحَةً [I have purchased to-day a good purchase]. (TA.) And البَيْعُ صَفْقَةٌ أَوْ خِيَارٌ Selling is decisive or with the option of returning. (Mgh.) And it is said in a trad. (of Ibn-Mes'ood, TA), صَفْقَتَانِ فِى صَفْقَةٍ رِبًا i. e. Two bargains in a [single] bargain [are an unlawful gain]: this is of two kinds: one is the seller's saying to the buyer, “I sell to thee such a thing for a hundred dirhems on the condition of thy buying of me this garment, or piece of cloth, for such a sum: ” the other kind is his saying, “I sell to thee this garment, or piece of cloth, for twenty dirhems on the condition of thy selling to me thy commodity for ten dirhems. ” (O.) And it is said in another trad., إِنَّ أَكْبَرَ الكَبَائِرِ أَنْ تُقَاتِلَ أَهْلَ صَفْقَتِكَ i. e. [Verily the greatest of great sins is] thy fighting those with whom thou hast made a covenant: because each of the two persons making a covenant puts his hand in the hand of the other, like as is done by each of two persons selling and buying.

(Fr, O, K.) b2: [In the TA, in a verse of Aboo-Dhu-eyb describing a bow, to which it seems to be there applied as an epithet, it is expl. as signifying راجعة; but I think that this is a mistranscription for رَاجِفَةٌ, meaning Quivering. b3: Freytag has assigned to it three explanations which belong to صِفَاقٌ.]

صَفِيقٌ, applied to a garment, or piece of cloth, (S, M, Mgh, O, Msb, K,) strong, stout, or firm; (M;) thick, substantial, close, or compact, in texture: (Mgh, O, Msb, K:) and سَفِيقٌ is a dial. var. thereof.

(O: the latter meaning only is assigned to it in the K.) صَافِقَةٌ A company (IDrd, M, O, K) of men [alighting at one's abode]. (IDrd, M, O.)
