(Msb.) b4: And hence الإِضَافَةُ as a conventional term of the grammarians; because the first [of two nouns in the case to which it applies] is adjoined to the second: (Msb:) [for] إِضَافَةُ الاِسْمِ إِلَى الاِسْمِ is [The prefixing the noun to the noun so that the former governs the latter in the gen. case] as when you say غُلَامُ زَيْدٍ; in which instance, غلام is termed ↓ مُضَافٌ, and زيد is termed إِلَيْهِ ↓ مُضَافٌ: and this is done for the purpose of particularizing or appropriating, and of making known or definite: therefore the إِضَافَة of a thing to itself [i. e. the prefixing a noun in this manner to one identical therewith in meaning] is not allowable, because a thing does not make known, or definite, itself; (S;) unless by an ellipsis, as when you say حَقُّ اليَقِينِ for حَقُّ الشَّىْءِ اليَقِينِ; or, accord. to Fr, the Arabs used to do so because of the difference of the two words themselves. (S voce جَامِعٌ.) [الإِضَافَةُ is also often used as meaning The state of being prefixed in the manner explained above; or the connection of a noun so prefixed with its complement. The various kinds of إِضَافَة are sufficiently explained in the grammars of De Sacy and others: they are not proper subjects of a lexicon, though much is said respecting them in the O, and more in the Msb. b5: Hence also, بِالإِضَافَةِ إِلَى كَذَا meaning In comparison with (lit. to), or in relation to, (like بِالنِّسْبَةِ إِلَى,) such a thing; as though in juxtaposition to it: a phrase of frequent occurrence: see an ex. in Bd ii. 6.] b6: أَضَفْتُهُ (inf. n. إِضَافَةٌ, Msb) and ↓ ضَيَّفْتُهُ (inf. n. تَضْيِيفٌ, O) both signify the same, (S, M, O, Msb, K,) from الضِّيَافَةُ; (O;) i. e. both signify I made him a guest, or lodged him, or gave him refuge or asylum, syn. أَنْزَلْتُهُ, (S, M, Msb,) with me, as a ضَيْف [or guest], (S,) and entertained him: (S, M, Msb:) أَضَافُوهُ and ↓ ضَيَّفُوهُ both signify أَنْزَلُوهُ: (Mgh:) accord. to Th, أَضَفْتُهُ signifies I lodged him at my abode as a ضَيْف: and I gave him (i. e. one in fear) protection, or refuge or asylum: (Msb:) and ↓ ضَيَّفْتُهُ is also expl. as meaning I fed him: and ↓ ضيّفهُ as meaning he made him to be in the condition of أَضْيَاف [or guests]. (TA.) 5 تَضَيَّفَ intrans.: see 1, first and second sentences. b2: تَضَيُّفٌ signifies also The being collected together. (KL, from the Mj.) b3: And The being a تَابِع [or follower, &c.]. (Id.) A2: As trans.: see 1, latter half, in four places.6 تَضَاْيَفَ see 4.

A2: تضايف as said of a valley, [from ضِيفٌ “ a side,”] It became narrow; syn. تَضَايَقَ. (S, M, O.) تَضَايَفْنَ عَلَيْهِ, a phrase used by a poet [describing camels following an old camel], They became near to him, (S, M, O,) by his side. (S, M.) And you say, تضايفهُ القَوْمُ The people, or party, became on both sides of him (بِضِيفَيْهِ). (TA.) And تَضَايفُه السَّبُعَانِ The two beasts of prey hemmed him in on both sides. (TA.) and تَضَايَفَتِ الكِلَابُ الصَّيْدَ and تَضَايَفَتْ عَلَيْهِ [The dogs hemmed in the object of the chase on both sides, or round about]. (TA.) [In the TA, all these are said to be tropical; but why, I see not.]7 انضاف إِلَيْهِ signifies He, or it, became joined, or adjoined, or added, to him, or it: and he joined himself to him: but is perhaps postclassical.]10 إِسْتَضْيَفَ see 1, last sentence. b2: You say also اِسْتَضَافَنِى, meaning He desired me, or asked me, to grant him protection, or refuge. (Msb.) and استضاف فُلَانٌ إِلَى فُلَانٍ Such a one had recourse, or betook himself, to such a one for protection, or refuge. (IAar, M.) ضَيْفٌ A guest: and guests: (MA:) so called because adjoined to the family and fed with them: (Ham p. 124:) it is applied to one, and to a pl. number, (S, M, MA, O, Msb, K,) and to a male and to a female, (S, O, Msb, K,) because it is originally an inf. n.: (MA, Msb:) [as a sing.,] i. q. ↓ مُضَيَّفٌ, (M,) which is syn. with نَزِيلٌ: (TA:) and applied to a pl. number, it may be pl. [or rather a quasi-pl. n.] of ↓ ضَائِفٌ, which is syn. with نَازِلٌ; thus being of the class of زَوْزٌ and صَوْمٌ: (M:) and it is also pluralized, having for its pls. أَضْيَافٌ and ضِيفَانٌ (S, M, MA, O, Msb, K) and ضُيُوفٌ (S, M, MA, O, K) and ضِيَافٌ, (MA, TA,) the first of which is properly a pl. of pauc., but is also used as a pl. of mult.: (M:) and a female is termed ضَيْفَةٌ as well as ضَيْفٌ: (S, M, O, Msb, K:) El-Ba'eeth says, لَقًى حَمَلَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَهْىَ ضَيْفَةٌ [A castaway with whom his mother became pregnant while she was a guest]: (S, M, O:) or, accord. to AHeyth, the meaning here is that which follows. (O.) b2: ضَيْفَةٌ applied to a woman signifies also Menstruating: (O, K:) so says AHeyth with reference to the citation above from El-Ba'eeth. (O.) ضِيفٌ The side (T, S, M, O, K) of a valley (T, M) and of a mountain (M) [&c.: see 6]: and, as metaphorically used by an anonymous poet, of the ذَكَر: (M:) and ↓ مَضَايِفُ signifies the sides of a valley. (TA.) b2: And one says, فُلَانٌ فِى ضِيفِ فُلَانٍ, meaning Such a one is in the vicinage, or quarter, of such a one. (M.) ضَيْفَنٌ One who comes with a guest: (S, O:) or who so comes intruding without invitation: (K:) or one who follows a guest: derived from ضَيْفٌ, accord. to Sb; but said by Az to belong to art. ضفن: (M:) [accord. to J and Sgh] the ن is augmentative: the pl. is ضَيَافِنُ. (S, O.) ضِيَافَةٌ an inf. n. of ضِفْتُهُ in the first of the senses assigned to the latter above. (S, M, O, K.) b2: [And] a subst. from أَضَفْتُهُ and ضَيَّفْتُهُ [as such signifying The entertainment of a guest or guests; i. e. the act of entertaining: and an entertainment as meaning a repast, given to a guest or guests; a banquet, or feast]. (Msb.) [Hence, دَارُ الضِّيَافَةِ The house of entertainment of guests.]

ضَائِفٌ A man alighting as a guest; syn. نَازِلٌ: (M, TA:) see ضَيْفٌ: its [proper] pl. is ضُيَّفٌ. (TA.) مُضَافٌ; and مُضَافٌ إِلَيْهِ: see 4. b2: The former signifies also (tropical:) One who is made an adjunct, or adherent, to a people, or party, (S, M, O, K, TA,) and made to incline to them, (M,) not being of them. (M, TA.) One says, مَا هُوَ إِلَّا مُضَافٌ (tropical:) [He is none other than an adjunct, or adherent]. (TA.) b3: And (tropical:) One whose origin, or lineage, or parentage, is suspected; or who makes a claim to relationship not having it: (O, K, TA:) and (K) whose origin, or relationship, is referred to a people, or party, of whom he is not a member. (O, K, TA.) b4: And One who is constrained to betake himself to a place of refuge, (M, O, K, TA,) to a narrow, or confined, place, and who is burdened with evil: (TA:) El-Bureyk ElHudhalee says, وَيَحْمِى المُضَافَ إِذَا مَا دَعَا [And he protects him who is constrained to betake himself to a place of refuge, when he calls for aid]. (M.) And ↓ مُسْتَضَافٌ signifies the same as مُضَافٌ [app. in the last of the senses expl. above]: so says IB; and he cites the saying of Jowwás Ibn-Heiyán El-Azdee, عِ وَأَحْمِى المُسْتَضَافَا ↓ وَلَقَدْ أَقْدَمُ فِى الرَّوٌ [app. meaning And verily I advance boldly in the case of fear, and I protect him who is constrained to betake himself to a place of refuge]. (TA.) [See also مَضُوفٌ.] b5: Also One who is beset, hemmed in, or encompassed, in war, or battle: (S, O, K: said in the TA to be tropical:) or one falling among the horsemen and men of valour, having in him no strength. (M.) [See, again, مَضُوفٌ.] b6: And One in a state of fear. (TA.) مَضُوفٌ Beset by distress of mind: (TA:) [accord. to Freytag, as from the Deewán of the Hudhalees, constrained to seek refuge: (see also مُضَافٌ:)] it occurs in the saying of the Hudhalee, أَنْتَ تُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ المَضُوفِ [Thou answerest the prayer, or call, of him who is beset &c.]; and is formed after the manner of بُوعَ for بِيعَ. (M, TA.) مَضِيفٌ a dial. var. of مَصِيفٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) [ISd says that] مَضِيفًا occurring in a verse of Aboo-Dhu-eyb [as some relate it], cited voce كَرَبَةٌ, [where the reading of مَصِيفًا is given,] is for ضَائِفًا, meaning Turning aside; crooked. (M.) مُضِيفٌ Fleeing; or turning away and fleeing. (Ibn-'Abbád, O. [See also its verb.]) مُضَافَةٌ Hardship, or difficulty, or distress. (TA.) b2: See also the next paragraph.

مَضُوفَةٌ, an anomalous word, by rule مَضِيفَةٌ, (Kh, Sb, TA in art. ضوف,) Anxiety; and want, or a want; (O and K in that art.;) and ↓ مَضِيفَةٌ and ↓ مُضِيفَةٌ signify the same; (O in that art. and in art. ضيف;) or these two signify anxiety, and grief: (K in this art.:) or مَضُوفَةٌ signifies an affair, or event, that is feared, or of which one is cautious; (S and M in this art.;) thus accord. to As; and ↓ مَضِيفَةٌ and ↓ مُضَافَةٌ signify the same. (S, L, TA.) مَضِيفَةٌ and مُضِيفَةٌ: see both in the next preceding paragraph; the former in two places.

مَضْيَفَةٌ, of the measure مَفْعَلَةٌ, A place of ضِيَافَة [i. e. entertainment of a guest or guests: pl. مَضَايِفُ]. (TA.) مُضَيَّفٌ: see ضَيفٌ.

مُضَيِّفٌ The master of an abode in which guests are entertained; as also ↓ مَضَايِفِىٌّ. (TA.) مِضْيَافٌ [One who often entertains guests]. (Har p. 579.) مَضَايِفُ [pl. of مَضْيَفَةٌ: b2: and also of a sing. not mentioned]: see ضِيفٌ.

مَضَايِفِىٌّ [from مَضَايِفُ pl. of مَضْيَفَةٌ]: see مُضَيِّفٌ.

إِسْمَآءٌ مُتَضَايِفَةٌ Correlative nouns; i. e. nouns significant of the existence of persons, or things, whereof the existence of one necessarily indicates the existence of another; as أَبٌ and اِبْنٌ [father and son]. (Er-Rághib, TA.) مُسْتَضَافٌ: see مُضَافٌ.

مُسْتَضِيفٌ [act. part. n. of 10, q. v.:] Asking, or calling, for aid, or succour. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.)

ضحل

1 ضَحَلَ, (O, K,) aor. ـَ (K,) said of water, It was, or became, shallow, (O, K, TA,) and little in quantity. (TA.) And said of a pool of water left by a torrent, Its water became little in quantity. (K.) 4 مَا أَضْحَلَ خَيْرَكَ means مَا أَقَلَّهُ [i. e. (assumed tropical:) How little, or scanty, is thy goodness, or bounty, or beneficence!]. (TA.) Q. Q. 4 اِضْمَحَلَّ, (S, O, K,) mentioned in the K in a separate art., its author, and some others, holding the م to be radical, but most of the leading authorities on inflection hold it, with J [and Sgh and Fei], to be augmentative; (TA;) and اِمْضَحَلَّ, (S, O, Msb, K,) of the dial. of the Kilá-bees, mentioned by Az, formed by transposition of the م; (S, O, TA;) and اِمْضَحَنَّ, (K,) formed by substitution, mentioned by Yaakoob; (TA;) It (a thing, S, O) went away; (S, O, Msb, K;) and came to nought. (Msb.) b2: And said of clouds (سَحَاب), They became removed, or cleared off. (S, O, Msb, K.) b3: And i. q. اِنْحَلَّ [It became untied, or undone, &c.]. (K.) ضَحْلٌ A small quantity of water, (S, M, O, K,) upon the ground, (M, K,) shallow, (M,) not deep; (K;) i. q. ضَحْضَاحٌ; (S, O;) or the latter has a more general meaning, applying to little or much: (TA:) accord. to some, such that the bottom of it appears: (MF, TA:) or a small quantity of water in a source, or fountain, and in a well, and in a hot spring, and the like; or in a pool left by a torrent, and the like: or water little in quantity; or near in place: (TA:) pl. [of pauc.] أَضْحَالٌ and [of mult.] ضُحُولٌ and ضِحَالٌ. (K.) b2: Hence, (S, O,) أَتَانُ الضَّحْلِ (S, O, K) i. e. A mass of rock of which part is covered by the water and part is protruding; (O;) expl. [more fully and variously] in art. اتن; (K;) so called because the water does not cover it by reason of its paucity. (S, O.) b3: [Hence also,] one says, إِنَّ خَيْرَكَ لَضَحْلٌ i. e. [(assumed tropical:) Verily thy goodness, or bounty, or beneficence, is] little. (TA.) غَدِيرٌ ضَاحِلٌ A pool, left by a torrent, the water of which has become shallow and has then gone away. (Sh, TA.) مَضْحَلٌ The place of a ضَحْل: (M, TA:) or a place in which is little water: (O, K:) the mirage (سَرَاب) is likened thereto: (TA:) pl. مَضَاحِلُ; (O, TA;) to which Ru-beh, (O,) or El-'Ajjáj, (TA,) likens clouds. (O, * TA.) ضحو and ضحى 1 ضَحَا الطَّرِيقُ, (S, K,) aor. ـْ (S,) inf. n. ضَحْوٌ, (S, and so in the CK,) or ضُحُوٌّ, (so in other copies of the K and in the TA,) like عُلُوٌّ, thus accord. to ISd and IKtt, (TA,) and ضُحِىٌّ, (TA as from the K, [but not in the CK nor in my MS. copy of the K,]) The road appeared, or became apparent, (S, K,) to a person: so says Az: (S:) [and so, app., signifies ضَحِىَ, aor. ـْ for] As says, يُسْتَحَبُّ مِنَ الفَرَسِ أَنْ يَضْحَى عِجَانُهُ i. e. [It is approved as a quality of the horse] that his عجان [q. v., a word variously expl.,] appear. (S, TA.) b2: ضَحِيَتِ اللّيْلَةُ The night was, or became, cloudless. (TA.) b3: ضَحِىَ الفَرَسَ The horse was, or became, white. (TA.) b4: ظِلُّهُ ضَحَا (tropical:) He died: (K, TA:) it [properly] means his shade, or shadow, became sun: and when a man's shade, or shadow, becomes sun, he himself becomes nought. (IAmb, TA.) b5: And ضَحَا and ضَحِىَ, aor. of each ـْ inf. n. ضَحْوٌ, (K, TA,) or, accord. to the M, ضُحُوٌّ, (TA,) and ضُحِىٌّ, He, or it, was smitten by the sun; or the sun came, or fell, upon him, or it: (K, TA:) or ضَحِىَ, aor. ـْ inf. n. ضَحًا; and ضَحَا, aor. ـْ inf. n. ضَحْوٌ and ضُحُوٌّ, he, or it, was smitten by the heat of the sun. (Ham p. 625.) Hence, in the Kur [xx. 117], لَا تَظْمَأُ فِيهَا وَلَا تَضْحَى [Thou shalt not thirst. therein nor shalt thou be smitten by the sun]; i. e., thou shalt be preserved from the heat of the sun. (TA.) b6: And ضَحَا, inf. n. ضَحْوٌ and ضُحُوٌّ and ضُحِىٌّ, He went forth to the sunshine; (K;) as also لِلشَّمْسِ ↓ استضحى; (TA;) [and app. ↓ تضحّى also; see Har p. 296, where, for النزول, in النزول للشمس as an explanation of التَّضَحِّى, I think we should read البُرُوزُ:] or ضَحِيتُ لِلشَّمْسِ, inf. n. ضَحَآءٌ; and ضَحَيْتُ also; aor. of each ـْ I went forth to the sunshine. (S.) أَضْحِ [the imperative of ↓ أَضْحَى] occurs in a trad., accord. to the relaters thereof: but As says that it is [correctly] اِضْحَ, with kesr to the ا and fet-h to the ح; from ضَحِيتُ; being a command to go forth to the sunshine. (S.) b7: And ضَحِىَ, (S, K,) inf. n. ضَحًى [or ضَحًا], He (a man, S) sweated. (S, K.) 2 ضَحَّيْنَاهُمْ is like صَبَّحْنَاهُمْ [i. e. it signifies We came to them in the time of the morning called الضُّحَى]: (TA:) and ↓ ضاحاهُ, (K, TA,) inf. n. مُضَاحَاةٌ, is similar to غَادَاهُ and رَاوَحَهُ, meaning, (TA,) He came to him in the time called الضُّحَى. (K, TA.) b2: ضحّى الغَنَمَ He pastured the sheep, or goats, in the time called الضُّحَى; (S, K, TA;) and in like manner, الإِبِلَ the camels. (TA.) And ضَحَّيْتُ الإِبِلَ عَنِ الوِرْدِ I pastured the camels with the [morning-pasture called] ↓ ضَحَآء, so that they might come to the water having satisfied themselves with food: and in like manner, عَشَّيْتُهَا عَنْهُ “ I pastured them with the [evening-pasture called] عَشَآء,” &c. (A, TA.) b3: [Hence,] ضَحَّيْتُهُ, inf. n. تَضْحِيَةٌ, I fed him in the time called الضُّحَى: (K, TA:) or I fed him with the [morning-meal called] غَدَآء, at any time [of the morning]; but more commonly known as meaning, in the time called الضُّحَى: and the verb primarily relates to camels [and sheep or goats]: or ضحّى قَوْمَهُ means he fed his people, or party, with the [morning-meal called] غَدَآء; or he invited them [thereto, i. e.] to his ضَحَآء. (TA.) b4: IAth says, when the Arabs, in their journeying, or migrating, passed by a piece of land in which was herbage, one of them said, أَلَا ضَحُّوا رُوَيْدًا, meaning [Now] be ye gentle with the camels ↓ حَتَّى نَتَضَحَّى i. e. in order that we may obtain of this herbage; then التَّضْحِيَةُ was applied to mean the being gentle in order that the camels may reach the place of alighting [app. in the morning] having satisfied themselves with food: and then ↓ تَضَحَّى was said of anyone as meaning he ate in the time called [الضُّحَى or] الضَّحَآء. (TA.) One says, ضَحَّيْتُ عَنِ الشَّىْءِ (assumed tropical:) I was gentle, or I acted gently, with the thing. (S.) And ضحّى عَنِ الأَمْرِ (tropical:) He acted gently, or deliberately, in the affair: and so عَشَّى عَنْهُ. (A, TA.) And ضَحِّ رُوَيْدًا, (S, A, TA,) a prov., (A, TA,) meaning (tropical:) Hasten thou not; (S, TA;) from تَضْحِيَةُ الإِبِلِ عَنِ الوِرْدِ: [see the third sentence of this paragraph:] or meaning be thou patient a little while: (TA:) or the meaning is, slaughter thou, or sacrifice thou, [deliberately, leisurely, or] without haste: (Meyd:) [for] b5: ضحّى, inf. n. تَضْحيَةٌ, signifies [also] He slaughtered, or sacrificed, the [victim termed] أُضْحِيَّة, in the time called الضُّحَى: and hence, by reason of frequency of usage, he did so in any time of what are termed أَيَّامُ التَّشْرِيقِ: (Msb:) and ضحّى

بِشَاةٍ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) or بِكَبْشٍ أَوْ غَيْرِهِ, (Mgh,) he slaughtered, or sacrificed, a sheep or goat, (S, Msb, K,) or a ram or other [victim], (Mgh,) in the time called الضُّحَى (Mgh, K) of the day called يَوْمُ الأَضْحَى; and afterwards said of him who has done so [at any time, even] in the last part of the [said] day. (Mgh.) A2: See also 4.

A3: and see 5.3 ضاحت البِلَدُ The countries, or lands, became exposed to the sun, and their herbage consequently dried up. (TA.) A2: ضاحاهُ: see 2, first sentence.4 اضحى He (a man, TA) entered upon the time of morning called الضُّحَى, (K, * TA,) or the time called الضَّحْوَة, (TA,) [or the time called الضَّحَآء, for] you say, أَقَمْتُ بِالمَكَانِ حَتَّى أَضْحَيْتُ, from الضَّحَآءُ [and therefore meaning I remained in the place until I entered upon the time called الضَّحَآء], like as you say أَصْبَحْتُ from الصَّبَاحُ. (S, TA.) Hence the saying of 'Omar, أَضْحُوا لِصَلَاةِ الضُّحَى, (S,) or بِصَلَاةِ الضُّحَى, (TA,) i. e. Perform ye the prayer of the time called الضحى at its [proper] time: do not delay it until the time called الضَّحَآء has become advanced: (TA:) or do not perform that prayer when the time called الضُّحَى has become advanced. (S.) b2: And you say, اضحى فُلَانٌ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا, (S, M, K,) like as you say ظَلَّ يفعل كذا; (S;) meaning Such a one became occupied, or engaged, in the time called الضُّحَى in doing such a thing: (M, K, TA:) or did such a thing in the first part of the day, (IKtt, TA.) b3: [This phrase often means also Such a one became occupied, or engaged, in doing such a thing; betook, set, or applied, himself to doing such a thing; set about, or commenced, doing such a thing; or began to do such a thing; like أَصْبَحَ and ظَلَّ &c. And, like these verbs, اضحى followed by an aor. , or by a part. n. in the accus. case, often requires to be rendered simply He, or it, became: see an ex. in a verse cited voce دَفِئٌ.] b4: اضحى also signifies He performed the supererogatory act of prayer (النَّافِلَة) in the time called الضُّحَى. (TA.) b5: See also 1, last sentence but one. b6: One says also, اضحى عَنِ الأَمْرِ, meaning (tropical:) He withdrew himself far from the affair. (TA. [See also another meaning of this phrase in what follows.]) And القَطا يُضْحِى عَنِ المَآءِ (tropical:) The birds called قطا go far from water. (TA.) A2: اضحى الشَّىْءَ He made apparent, showed, or revealed, the thing. (K, TA.) And عَنِ الأَمْرِ ↓ ضحّى He made the affair, or case, apparent, or manifest: and [so اضحى عَنْهُ, for] one says, أَضْحِ لِى عَنْ أَمْرِكَ, with fet-h to the ء, meaning Make manifest to me thy affair, or case: so in the M. (TA.) b2: لَا أَضْحَى

اللّٰهُ لَنَا ظِلَّكَ is a deprecatory phrase [lit. May God not cause thy shadow to become sun to us: meaning (assumed tropical:) may God not deprive us of thee by death: (see ضَحَا ظِلُّهُ:) or it may be similar in meaning to the phrase here following]. (TA.) لَا تُضْحِنَا عَنْ ظِلِّكَ [lit. Make us not to go forth into the sun from thy shadow] means (assumed tropical:) withdraw not from us the shadow of thy compassion: the verb being made trans. by means of عن because the phrase implies the meaning of لَا تُخْرِجْنَا مِنْهُ: and ظلّ being here used metaphorically. (Har p. 4.) 5 تَضحّى: see 1, latter half. b2: And see 2, in two places. It [generally] means He ate in the time of morning called الضُّحَى: (K:) or he ate the [morning-meal called] غَدَآء; syn. تَغَدَّى: (S, TA:) and ↓ ضحّى also has the former [or the latter] meaning.

ضُحًى, also written ضُحًا, held by some to be of the measure فُعَلٌ, and by others to be [originally ضُحْوًى i. e.] of the measure فُعْلًى, of the former measure accord. to Mbr, and of the latter accord. to Th, (MF, TA,) [The early part of the forenoon, after sunrise: accord. to some, when the sun is yet low: accord. to others, when the sun is somewhat high:] i. q. ↓ ضَحْوَةٌ, accord. to most authorities: (MF, TA, and so in one place in the K:) or this latter signifies the period of the day after sunrise: (S:) or this signifies the advanced state of the day (اِرْتِفَاعُ النَّهَارِ [which is said by the doctors of the law in the present day to mean when the sun has risen the measure of a رُمْح, q. v., or more]); as also ↓ ضَحْوٌ and ↓ ضَحِيَّةٌ: (K:) and the ضُحَى is after the ضَحْوَة (S, K) a little, (K,) when the sun shines brightly: (S:) or from sunrise to the time when the day is advanced and very white: thus in the M: (TA:) or it is the spreading of the sun [upon the earth], and the extending of the day: and the time [thereof] is thus named: (Er-Rághib, TA:) or ضُحًى is pl. of ↓ ضَحْوَةٌ, like as قُرًى is of قَرْيَةٌ; and its sing. is like ↓ ضَحَآءٌ, which means the extending of the day, and is of the masc. gender, as though a name of the time [thereof]: then ضُحًى became used as a sing., and the time was thus called: (Msb:) it is fem. and masc.: (S, K: *) he who makes it fem. holds it to be pl. of ↓ ضَحْوَةٌ; and he who makes it masc. holds it to be [a sing.] noun of the measure فُعَلٌ, like صُرَدٌ and نُغَرٌ: (S:) its dim. is ↓ضُحَىٌّ, without ة; (Fr, Msb, K;) for they disapproved the affixing the ة lest it should be confounded with the dim. of ضَحْوَةٌ. (Fr, Msb.) Using it as an adv. noun, you say, لَقِيتُهُ ضُحَى, when you mean [I met him] in the ضحى of this day; without tenween. (S, TA.) See also ضَحْوَةٌ. [See also De Sacy's Chrest.

(M, TA.) One says, اِرْتَفَعَتِ الضَّحَى, meaning The sun became high. (Msb.) b3: and ضُحَى الشَّمْسِ The light of the sun: thus is expl. xci. 1. of the Kur. (TA.) b4: مَا لِكَلَامِهِ ضُحًى means (assumed tropical:) His speech, or language, has no perspicuity: thus in the M and K: but in the A, ↓ أَنْشَدَنِى شَعْرًا لَيْسَ فِيهِ حَلَاوَةٌ وَلَا ضَحَآءٌ i. e. [He recited to me poetry] in which was no [sweetness nor] plainness of meaning. (TA.) ضَحْوَةٌ: see the next preceding paragraph, in three places. You say, أَتَيْتُكَ ضَحْوَةً, meaning [I came to thee] in a [time called] ↓ ضُحًى [or rather ضَحْوَة], (K, * TA,) with tenween, unless you mean of this day [in which case you say ضَحْوَةٌ, without tenween, like as you say in the latter case ضُحَى].

[Hence also,] ضَوَاحِى الرُّومِ The exterior districts of the Greeks. (K.) And الضَّاحِيَةُ مِنَ البَعْلِ What are in the open country, of the palm-trees that imbibe with their roots, without being watered: opposed to الضَّامِنَةُ مِنَ النَّخْلِ: (AO, S in this art. and in art. ضمن, q. v.:) and الضَّوَاحِى مِنَ النَّخْلِ what are outside of the town-wall, of the palm-trees: thus used, الضواحى is an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant.

(K, TA.) أَضْحَى, applied to a horse, i. q. أَشْهَبُ [Of a colour in which whiteness predominates over blackness; &c.]: fem. ضَحْيَآءُ: (S, K:) or الضَّحْيَآءُ was, (K,) or was also, (S, and so afterwards in the K,) the name of a certain mare, belonging to 'Amr Ibn-'Ámir (S, K) Ibn-Rabee'ah. (S.) b2: And لَيْلَةٌ ضَحْيَآءُ, (S, K,) and ضَحْيَا with the short ا, both mentioned by ISd, (TA,) and ↓ إِضْحِيَانَةٌ, (S, K,) and ↓ إِضْحِيَةٌ accord. to the K, but [SM says] I have not found any mention of this last, [meaning except in the K,] and probably the right word is ↓ إِضحِيَانٌ, as in the books of strange words together with إِضْحِيَانَةٌ, and accord. to the “ Irtisháf ed-Darab ” of AHei one says [also]

↓ أَضْحِيَانٌ with fet-h, (TA,) A bright night, (S, K, TA,) in which are no clouds: (S, TA:) and in like manner, ↓ يَوْمٌ إِضْحِيَانٌ, in the K, erroneously, ضَحْيَاةٌ, a bright day, in which are no clouds, as in the M; or bright with the brightness of the ضُحَى, accord. to Er-Rághib; or [simply] bright, and so ↓ ضَحْيَانٌ, which is likewise applied in this sense to a moon, as also ↓ إِضْحِيَانٌ, and to a lamp, or its lighted wick. (TA.) b3: And اِمْرَأَةٌ ضَحْيَآءُ A woman whose hair of her عَانَة will not grow forth; (K, TA;) as though her عانة, being bare of hair, had no shade upon it. (TA.)

A3: أَضْحًى [a coll. gen. n., of which the n. un. is أَضْحَاةٌ]: see أُضْحِيَّةٌ. Hence, يَوْمُ الأَضْحَى [The day of the victims; which is the tenth of Dhu-l- Hijjeh]; (S, Mgh, K, * TA;) so says Yaakoob; (TA;) or عِيدُ الأَضْحَى [the festival of the victims]: (Msb:) and by الأَضْحَى when it is made masc. is meant that day.

↓ المَغْرِبُ, (S, M, Msb, K,) which latter is also pronounced ↓ المَغْرَبُ, with fet-h to the ر, but more commonly with kesr, (Msb,) or accord. to analogy it should be with fet-h, but usage has given it kesr, as in the case of المَشْرِقُ; (TA;) [both signify The west;] الغَرْبُ is the contr. of الشَّرْقُ; (M, TA;) and ↓ المَغْرِبُ [is the contr. of المَشْرِقُ, and] originally signifies the place [or point] of sunset, (TA,) as also الشَّمْسِ ↓ مَغْرِبَانُ; (K;) and is likewise used to signify the time of sunset; and also as an inf. n.: (TA:) and ↓ المَغْرِبَانِ signifies the two places [or points] where the sun sets; i. e. the furthest [or northernmost] place of sunset in summer [W. 26 degrees N. in Central Arabia] and the furthest [or southernmost] place of sunset in winter [W. 26 degrees S. in Central Arabia]: (T, TA:) between these two points are a hundred and eighty points, every one of which is called مَغْرِبٌ; and so between the two points called المَشْرِقَانِ. (TA.) A3: غَرْبٌ signifies also The first part (S, K) of a thing (K) [and particularly] (assumed tropical:) of the run of a horse. (S.) b2: And The حَدّ [or edge] (S, K) of a thing, as also ↓ غُرَابٌ, (K,) or of a sword and of anything; (S;) and thus [particularly] the ↓ غُرَاب of the فَأْس [or adz, &c.]. (S, K.) b3: And (assumed tropical:) Sharpness (S, A, Msb, TA) of a sword, (TA,) or of anything, such as the فَأْس [or adz, &c.], and of the knife, (Msb,) and (Msb, TA) (assumed tropical:) of the tongue: (S, A, Msb, TA:) and [as meaning (assumed tropical:) sharpness of temper or the like, passionateness, irritability, or vehemence,] of a man, (TA,) and of a horse, (S, TA,) and of youth: (A, TA:) [from the same word signifying the “ edge ” of a sword &c.: whence the saying, أَرْهِفْ غَرْبَ ذِهْنِكَ لَمَا أَقُولُ (mentioned in the A and TA in art. ارهف) meaning (tropical:) Sharpen the edge of thine intellect for what I say:] and ↓ غَرْبَةٌ signifies the same. (TA.) And Vehemence of might or strength, or of valour or prowess, of men; syn. شَوْكَةٌ. (TA.) [And hence, app., (assumed tropical:) Briskness, liveliness, or sprightliness: and (assumed tropical:) perseverance in an affair: see the first paragraph.] b4: Also, [used as an epithet,] (assumed tropical:) Sharp, applied to a sword [and the like], and to a tongue.

(TA.) So expl. in the following words of a trad.: أَخَذَ الدَّلْوَ عُمَرُ فَاسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا ['Omar took the دلو, and it became changed into a غرب]; i. e. when he took the دلو to draw water, it became large in his hand: for the conquests in his time were more than those in the time of Aboo-Bekr. (IAth, TA.) b2: And A [camel, or any beast, such as is called] رَاوِيَة, (K, TA,) upon which water is carried. (TA.) b3: And accord. to the K, A day of irrigation: but [this is app. a mistake: for] Az says that Lth has mentioned the phrase فِى يَوْمِ غَرْبٍ, meaning thereby in a day in which water is drawn with the [large bucket called] غَرْب, [ for irrigation,] on the [camel, or she-camel, called]

سَانِيَة. (TA.) A5: And Tears (K, TA) when they come forth from the eye: (TA:) or غُرُوبٌ signifies tears; (S;) and is pl. of غَرْبٌ. (TA.) A poet says, مَا لَكَ لَا تَذْكُرُ أُمَّ عَمْرِو

إِلَّا لِعَيْنَيْكَ غُرُوبٌ تَجْرِى

[What aileth thee, that thou dost not mention Umm-'Amr but thine eyes have tears flowing?]. (S, TA.) And it is said of Ibn-'Abbás, in a trad., كَانَ مِثَجًّا يَسِيلُ غَرْبًا i. e. (tropical:) [He was an eloquent orator, flowing with] a copious and uninterrupted stream of knowledge, likened to غَرْب as meaning “ tears coming forth from the eye. ” (TA.) b2: and A flowing, (مَسِيلٌ, K,) or vehement flowing, (اِنْهِلَالٌ, A, K,) in one copy of the K اِنْهِمَالٌ [which means a flowing], (TA,) of tears from the eye: (A, K:) and a single flow (فَيْضَةٌ) of tears, and of wine. (K.) b3: And A certain vein, or duct, (عِرْقٌ,) in the channel of the tears, (S, Mgh,) or in the eye, (A, K,) that flows [with tears] uninterruptedly; (S, A, Msb, K;) like what is termed نَاسُورٌ. (S, Mgh.) One says of a person whose tears flow without intermission, بَعَيْنِهِ غَرْبٌ. (As, S, Mgh.) And [the pl.] الغُرُوبُ signifies The channels of the tears. (S.) b4: Also The inner angle of the eye, and the outer angle thereof. (S, A, K.) b5: And A tumour in the inner angles of the eyes; (Mgh, K;) as also ↓ غَرَبٌ. (Mgh.) b6: And A pustule (بَثْرَةٌ) in the eye, (K, TA,) which discharges blood, and the bleeding of which will not be stopped. (TA.) b7: And Abundance of saliva (K, TA) in the mouth; (TA;) and the moisture thereof, i. e., of saliva: (K:) pl. غُرُوبٌ. (TA.) And The place where the saliva collects and remains: (K, TA:) or the غَرْب in a tooth is the place where the saliva thereof collects and remains: (TA:) or غَرْبٌ, (TA,) or its pl. غُرُوبٌ, (S, TA,) signifies the sharpness, and مَآء

[meaning lustre], (S, TA,) of the tooth, (TA,) or of the teeth: (S, TA:) accord. to the T and M and Nh and L, غُرُوبُ الأَسْنَانِ signifies the places where the saliva of the teeth collects and remains: or, as some say, their extremities and sharpness and مَآء [which may here mean either water or lustre]: or the مَآء that runs upon the teeth: (TA:) or their مَآء, and shining whiteness: (A, TA:) or their fineness, or thinness, and sharpness: or غُرُوبٌ signifies the sharp, or serrated, edges of the fore teeth: it is also, as pl. of غَرْبٌ, expl. as signifying the مَآء of the فَم [by which may be meant either the water of the mouth or the lustre of the teeth, for الفَمُ properly signifies “ the mouth ” and metonymically “ the teeth ”], and the sharpness of the teeth: and accord. to MF, as on the authority of the Nh, [but SM expresses a doubt as to its correctness,] it is also applied to the teeth [themselves]. (TA.) [See also شَنَبٌ, in two places.]

A6: أَصَابَهُ سَهْمُ غَرْبٍ and ↓ سَهْمُ غَرَبٍ, and سَهْمٌ غَرْبٌ and ↓ سَهْمٌ غَرَبٌ, (S, Msb, * K,) the second of which, i. e. ↓ سَهْمُ غَرَبٍ, accord. to IKt, is the most approved, (MF,) mean An arrow of which the shooter was not known [struck him]: (S, Msb, K:) or, accord. to some, سهم غَرْب signifies an arrow from an unknown quarter; سهم

↓ غَرَب, an arrow that is shot and that strikes another. (TA.) A7: And غَرْبٌ signifies also A certain tree of El-Hijáz, (K, TA,) green, (TA,) large, or thick, and thorny, (K, TA,) whence is made [or prepared] the كُحَيْل [i. e. tar] with which [mangy] camels are smeared: [or it is a coll. gen. n., for] its n. un. is with ة: so says ISd: كحيل is قَطِرَان, of the dial. of El-Hijáz: and he [app. ISd] says also, the أَبْهَل [q. v.] is the same as the غَرْب, because قطران is extracted from it. (TA.) Hence, as some say, (K, TA,) the trad., (TA,) لَا يَزَالُ أَهْلُ الغَرْبِ ظَاهِرِينَ عَلَى

الحَقِّ [The people of the غرب will not cease to be attainers of the truth, or of the true religion]: (K, TA:) or the meaning is, the people of Syria, because Syria is [a little to the] west of El-Hijáz: or the people of sharpness, and of vehemence of might or strength, or of valour or prowess; i. e. the warriors against unbelievers: or the people of the bucket called غَرْب; i. e. the Arabs: or the people of the west; which meaning is considered by Iyád and others the most probable, because, in the relation of the trad. by Ed-Dárakutnee, the word in question is المَغْرِب. (L, TA.) غُرْبٌ: see غُرْبَةٌ.

غَرَبٌ Silver: or a [vessel such as is termed] جَام of silver; (S, K;) [i. e.] a [drinking-cup or bowl such as is termed] قَدَح of silver. (L, TA.) A poet says, فَدَعْدَعَا سُرَّةَ الرَّكَآءِ كَمَا دَعْدَعَ سَاقِى الأَعَاجِمِ الغَرَبَا cited in the S as being by El-Aashà but it is said in the L, IB says, this verse is by Lebeed, not by El-Aashà, describing two torrents meeting together; meaning, And they filled the middle of the valley of Er-Rehà, also, but less correctly, called Er-Rikà, like as the cup-bearer of the اعاجم [or foreigners] fills the silver قَدَح with wine: the verse of El-Aashà in which [it is said that] غَرَب occurs as meaning “ silver ” is, إِذَا انْكَبَّ أَزْهَرُ بَيْنَ السُّقَاةِ تَرَامَوْا بِهِ غَرَبًا وَنُضَارَا i. e. When a white wine-jug is turned down so as to pour out its contents [among the cup-bearers], they hand it, i. e. the wine in the cups, one to another [while it resembles silver or gold]: (L, TA:) غَرَبًا is here in the accus. case as a denotative of state, though signifying a substance: [and so نُضَارَا:] but it is said that غَرَبٌ and نُضَارٌ signify species of trees from which are made [drinkingcups or bowls such as are termed] أَقْدَاح [pl. of قَدَحٌ]: and it is said in the T that نُضَارٌ signifies a species of trees from which are made yellow أَقْدَاح. (TA.) b2: [In explanation of the last of the applications of غَرَبٌ mentioned above, it is said that] it signifies also A species of trees (T, S, ISd, TA) from which are made white [drinking-cups or bowls of the kind termed] أَقْدَاح; (T, TA;) called in Pers\. إِسبِيدْ دَار [or إِسْپِيدَار]: (S:) [generally held to mean the willow; like the Hebr.

עֲרָבִים; or particularly the species called salix Babylonica: a coll. gen. n.:] n. un. with ة. (ISd, TA.) [Avicenna (Ibn-Seenà), in book ii. p. 279, mentions a tree called غرب, but describes only the uses and supposed properties of its bark &c., particularizing its صَمْغ; whence it appears that he means the غَرْب, not the غَرَب.] b3: It also signifies A [vessel of the kind termed] قَدَح [perhaps such as is made from the species of trees above mentioned]: (K, TA:) and its pl. is أَغْرَابٌ. (TA.) b4: And Gold. (K.) b5: And Wine. (S, K.) b6: And The water that drops from the buckets between the well and the watering-trough or tank, (S, K,) and which soon alters in odour: (S:) or any water that pours from the buckets from about the mouth of the well to the wateringtrough or tank, and that soon alters in odour: or the water and mud that are around the well and the watering-trough or tank: (TA:) and (as some say, TA) the odour of water and mud: (K:) so called because it soon alters. (TA.) [Hence] one says, لا تغرب, [thus in the TA, so that it may be ↓ لا تَغْرُبْ or ↓ لا تُغَرِّبْ or ↓ لا تُغْرِبْ,] meaning Spill not thou the water between the well and the watering-trough or tank, so as to make mud. (TA.) A2: Also A certain disease in sheep or goats, (S, K,) like the سَعَف in the she-camel, in consequence of which the hair of the خُرْطُوم [i. e. nose, or fore part of the nose,] and that of the eyes fall off. (S.) b2: And [A colour such as is termed] زَرَق [q. v.] in the eye of a horse, (K, TA,) together with whiteness thereof. (TA.) b3: See also غَرْبٌ, latter half, in five places.

غُرُبٌ: see غَرِيبٌ.

غَرْبَةٌ: see غَرْبٌ, former half, in three places.

غُرْبَةٌ (S, K) and ↓ غُرْبٌ (K) [as simple substs. The state, or condition, of a stranger or foreigner: but originally both are, app., inf. ns. of غَرُبَ, like قُرْبَةٌ and قُرْبٌ of قَرُبَ, signifying] the being far, or distant, from one's home, or native country; (K;) i. q. اِغْتِرَابٌ (S, K) and تَغَرُّبٌ. (K.) A2: Also, the former, Pure, or unmixed, whiteness. (IAar, TA.) [See مُغْرَبٌ.]

غَرْبِىٌّ [Of, or relating to, the west, or place of sunset; western]: see غَارِبٌ. b2: [Also,] applied to trees (شَجَرٌ), Smitten, or affected, by the sun at the time of its setting. (K.) [Respecting the meaning of its fem. in the Kur xxiv. 35, see شَرْقِىٌّ.]

A2: And A sort of dates: (K:) but accord. to AHn, the word is غُرَابِىٌّ [q. v.]. (TA.) b2: And The [sort of] نَبِيذ that is termed فَضِيخ [i. e. a beverage made from crushed unripe dates without being put upon the fire]: (K, TA:) or [a beverage] prepared only from fresh ripe dates; the drinker of which ceases not to possess selfrestraint as long as the wind does not blow upon him; but if he goes forth into the air, and the wind blows upon him, his reason departs: wherefore one of its drinkers says, إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ غَرْبِيُّكُمْ جَيِّدًا فَنَحْنُ بِاللّٰهِ وَبِالرِّيحِ

[If your gharbee be not excellent, we (put our trust) in God and in the wind]. (AHn, TA.) b3: And A certain red صِبْغ [i. e. dye, or perhaps sauce, or fluid seasoning]. (K.) غَرْبِيبٌ One of the most excellent kinds of grapes; (K;) a sort of grapes growing at Et-Táïf, in-tensely black, of the most exceuent, and most delicate, and blackest, of grapes. (TA.) [See an ex. in a verse cited voce عَجِيبَةٌ.] b2: Applied to an old man, Intensely black [app. in the hair]: or whose hair does not become white, or hoary: (TA:) or, so applied, who blackens his white, or hoary, hair with dye: (K, TA:) occurring in a trad., in which it is said that God hates such an old man: pl. غَرَابِيبُ. (TA.) b3: أَسْوَدُ غِرْبِيبٌ means Intensely black: but if you say غَرَابِيبُ سُودٌ, you make the latter word a substitute for the former; because a word corroborative of one signifying a colour cannot precede; (S, K;) nor can the corroborative of any word: (Suh, MF:) or, accord. to Hr, غَرَابِيبُ سُودٌ [in the Kur xxxv.

25], relating to mountains, means Streaks having black rocks. (TA.) غُرَابٌ A certain black bird, (TA,) well known; (K, TA;) [the corvus, or crow;] of which there are several species; [namely, the raven, carrioncrow, rook, jackdaw, jay, magpie, &c.:] and it was used as a proper name, which, as is said in a trad., he [i. e. Mohammad] changed, because the word implies the meaning of distance, and because it is the name of a foul bird: (TA:) the pl. [of mult.] is غِرْبَانٌ (S, Msb, K) and غُرْبٌ (K) and (of pauc., S) أَغْرِبَةٌ (S, Msb, K) and أَغْرُبٌ; (Msb, K;) and pl. pl. غَرَابِينُ. (K.) When the Arabs characterize a land as fertile, they say, وَقَعَ فِى أَرْضٍ لَا يُطَيَّرُ غُرَابُهَا (tropical:) [He lighted upon a land of which the crow will not be made to fly away; because of its abundant herbage: see also طَيَّرَ]: and وَجَدَ ثَمَرَةَ الغُرَابِ (assumed tropical:) [He found the fruit of the crow]; because that bird seeks after and chooses the most excellent of fruits. (TA.) They also say, طَارَ غُرَابُ فُلَانٍ (tropical:) [The crow of such a one flew away], meaning the head of such a one became white, or hoary. (A, TA. [See also a similar phrase below.]) Also, فُلَانٌ أَبْصَرُ مِنْ غُرَابٍ [Such a one is more sharp-sighted than a crow]: and أَحْذَرُ [more cautious]: and أَزْهَى

[more proud]: and أَشْأَمُ [more inauspicious]: &c.: they say that this bird is more inauspicious than any other inauspicious thing upon the earth. (TA.) In the phrase ↓ غُرَابٌ غَارِبٌ, the epithet is added to give intensiveness to the signification. (TA.) غُرَابُ البَيْنِ has been expl. in art. بين. b2: الغُرَابُ is the name of (assumed tropical:) One of the southern constellations, [i. e. Corvus,] consisting of seven stars [in the enumeration of Ptolemy], behind البَاطِيَة [which is Crater], to the south of السِّمَاكُ الأَعْزَلُ [i. e. Spica Virginis]. (Kzw.) b3: أَغْرِبَةُ العَرَبِ is an appellation of (assumed tropical:) The blacks [lit. crows] of the Arabs; the black Arabs: (K, TA:) likened to the birds called اغربة, in respect of their complexion: (TA:) in all of them the blackness was derived from their mothers. (MF, TA.) The أَغْرِبَة in the Time of Ignorance were 'Antarah and Khufáf Ibn-Nudbeh (asserted to have been a Mukhadram, TA) and Aboo-'Omeyr Ibn-El- Hobáb and Suleyk Ibn-Es-Sulakeh (a famous runner, TA) and Hishám Ibn-'Okbeh-Ibn-AbeeMo'eyt; but this last was a Mukhadram: and those among the Islámees, 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Khá- zim and 'Omeyr Ibn-Abee-'Omeyr and Hemmám [in the CK Humám] Ibn-Mutarrif and Munteshir Ibn-Wahb and Matar Ibn-Abee-Owfà and Taäbbata-Sharrà and Esh-Shenfarà and Hájiz; to the last of whom is given no appellation of the kind called “ nisbeh,” (K, TA,) in relation to father, mother, tribe, or place. (TA.) b4: رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ signifies (assumed tropical:) A certain herb, called in the language of the Barbar إِطْرِيلَال, (K, TA,) and in the present day زِرُّ الأَخِلَّةِ, (MF,) resembling the شِبِثّ [q. v., variously written in different copies of the K,] in its stem and in its جُمَّة [or node whence the flower grows] and in its lower part, or root, except that its flower is white, and it forms grains like those of the مَقْدُونِس [app. scandix cerefolium or apium petroselinum], (K, TA,) nearly: (TA:) a drachm of its seeds, bruised, and mixed with honey (K, TA) deprived of its froth, (TA,) is a tried medicine for eradicating [the species of leprosy which are called] the بَرَص and the بَهَق, being drunk; and sometimes is added to it a quarter of a drachm of عَاقِرْ قَرْحَا, (K, TA,) which is [commonly] known by the name of عود القرح [i. e. عُودُ القَرْحِ, both of these being names now applied to pyrethrum, i. e. pellitory of Spain, but the latter, accord. to Forskål (Flora Ægypt. Arab. p. cxix.), applied in El-Yemen to the cacalia sonchifolia, or to a species of senecio]; (TA;) the patient sitting in a hot sun, with the diseased parts uncovered: (K, TA:) [see also رِجْلٌ: now applied to the chelidonium hybridum of Linn., chelidonium dodecandrum of Forsk.: (Delile's Floræ Ægypt. Illustr. no. 502:) in Bocthor's Dict. Français-Arabe, both the names of رجل الغراب and اطريلال are given to the plants called cerfeuil (or chervil) and corne de cerf (or buck'shorn plantain, also called coronopus).] b5: Also (i. e. رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ) A certain mode of binding the udder of a camel, (S, K,) tightly, (S,) so that the young one cannot suck; (K;) nor will it undo. (TA.) [Hence] one says, صُرَّ عَلَيْهِ رِجْلُ الغُرَابِ, meaning (tropical:) The affair was, or became, difficult, or strait, to him: (A, * K:) or his life, or subsistence, was, or became, so. (TA.) [And in like manner one says also أَصَرَّ, accord. to the TA: but this I think doubtful; believing that أَصَرَّ is a mistranscription for صَرَّ, meaning that one says also صَرَّ عَلَيْهِ رِجْلَ الغُرَابِ i. e. He bound him with a bond not to be undone, or that would not undo; or he straitened him. See, again, رِجْلٌ; and a verse there cited as an ex.]

A2: الغُرَابَانِ signifies The two lower extremities of the two hips, or haunches, that are next to the upper parts of the thighs: (K, TA:) or the heads, and highest parts, of the hips, or haunches: (TA:) or two thin bones, lower than what is called the فَرَاشَة [or, app., فَرَاش, q. v.]: (K, TA:) or, in a horse and in a camel, the two extremities of the haunches, namely, their two edges, on the left and right, that are above the tail, at the junction of the head of the haunch, (As, S, TA,) where the upper parts of the haunch, on the right and left, meet: (TA:) or the two extremities of the haunch that are behind the قَطَاة [or fore part of the croup]: (IAar, TA:) pl. غِرْبَانٌ: Dhu-r-Rummeh says, referring to camels, تَقَوَّبَ عَنْ غِرْبَانِ أَوْرَاكِهَا الخَطْرُ meaning تَقَوَّبَتْ غِرْبَانُهَا عَنِ الخَطْرِ [The prominences of their haunches were excoriated from the lashing with the tails], the phrase being inverted, for the meaning is known; (S in this art.;) or تَقَوَّبَ may be for قَوَّبَ [i. e. the saying means the lashing with the tails excoriated the prominences of the haunches]: (S in art. خطر:) or غِرْبَانٌ signifies the haunches themselves, of camels: and is employed [by a synecdoche] to signify camels [themselves]: (IAar, TA:) and [the sing.] غُرَابٌ is also expl. as meaning the extremity of the haunch that is next the back. (L, TA.) b2: غُرَابٌ signifies also The whole of the back of the head. (K, TA.) You say, شَابَ غُرَابُهُ The hair of the whole of the back of his head became white, or hoary. (TA.

A3: And A bunch of بَرِير [or fruit of the أَرَاك, q. v.]: (K:) or a black bunch thereof: pl. غِرْبَانٌ: (TA:) or غِرْبَانُ البَرِيرِ signifies the ripe fruit of the أَرَاك. (S.) A4: And Hail, and snow, (K, TA,) and hoar-frost: from مُغْرَبٌ signifying the “ dawn; ” because of their whiteness. (TA.) غُرُوبٌ pl. of غَرْبٌ [q. v.]. b2: [Golius assigns to it the meaning of وِهَادٌ, which he renders “ Depressiores terræ; ” as on the authority of J: but I do not find this in the S.]

غَرِيبٌ (S, Msb, K) and ↓ غُرُبٌ (S, K) and ↓ غَرِيبِىٌّ (AA, TA) signify the same, (S, K, TA,) [A stranger, or foreigner;] one far, or distant, from his home, or native country; (Msb;) a man not of one's own people: (TA:) a man not of one's own kindred; an alien with respect to kindred; (S in explanation of the first;) pl. of the first غُرَبَآءُ; (S, TA;) and غُرْبٌ [also] is a pl. of غَرِيبٌ, like as قُرْبٌ is of قَرِيبٌ: (TA in art. زلف:) fem. of the first غَرِيبَةٌ; pl. غَرَائِبُ. (L, TA.) أَذَاعَتْ غَزْلَهَا فِى الغَرَائِبِ, a phrase used by a poet, means She distributed her thread among the strange women: for most of the women who spin for hire are strangers. (L, TA.) And one says وَجْهٌ كَمِرْآةِ الغَرِيبَةِ [A face like the mirror of her who is a stranger]: because, the غَرِيبَة being among such as are not her own people, her mirror is always polished; for she has none to give her a sincere opinion respecting her face. (A.) and لَأَضْرِبَنَّكُمْ ضَرْبَ غَرِيبَةِ الإِبِلِ (tropical:) [I will assuredly beat you with the beating of the strange one of the camels] is a saying of El-Hajjáj threatening the subjects of his government; meaning, as a strange camel, intruding among others when they come to water, is beaten and driven away. (IAth, TA.) And [hence] قِدْحٌ غَرِيبٌ means (assumed tropical:) [An arrow, without feathers or head,] such as is not of the same trees whereof are the rest of the arrows. (TA.) b2: غَرِيبٌ signifies also Language that is strange; [unusual, extraordinary, or unfamiliar;] far from being intelligible; difficult to be understood; or obscure. (Msb, TA.) Hence, مُصَنَّفُ الغَرِيبِ [The composition on the subject of the strange kind of words &c.]. (A, TA.) [Hence also الغَرِيبَانِ The two classes of strange words &c., namely, those occurring in the Kur-án, and those of the Traditions.] And كَلِمَةٌ غَرِيبَةٌ A word, or an expression, that is [strange, &c., or] obscure: (A, TA:) غَرِيبَةٌ applied to a word [and often used as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant] is opposed to فَصِيحَةٌ: and its pl. is غَرَائِبُ.

(O, TA.) In the saying, in a trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ اسْقِنَا غَدَقًا

العَيْشِ and غَيْدَاقٍ [They are in an ample, or a plentiful, state of life]. (TA.)

(S, Mgh, * Msb.) b2: And أَغَالَتْ and أَغْيَلَتْ, (Mgh,) or أَغَالَتْ وَلَدَهَا and أَغْيَلَتْهُ, (S, Msb, K,) She gave her child to drink what is termed غَيْل, (S, K, TA,) i. e. the milk of her who was compressed, or the milk of her who was pregnant: (TA:) or [accord. to common usage] she suckled her child while she was pregnant: (Mgh, Msb:) and وَلَدَهَا ↓ غَالَتْ, aor. ـِ inf. n. غَيْلٌ, signifies [the same, or] she suckled her child while she was being compressed, or while she was pregnant. (TK.) [See also 10.]

(S, K.) 10 اِسْتَغْيَلَتْ, said of a woman, a verb of which the subst. is غِيلَةٌ [q. v.]: (K:) [accord. to the context in the K, in which the meaning is not clearly indicated, it seems to signify She suckled her child while being compressed, or while pregnant; like أَغَالَتْ for أَغَالَتْ وَلَدَهَا; and this I believe to be the right meaning: or] it signifies she was compressed while suckling a child, or while pregnant. (TK.) A2: See also 5, first sentence.

غَيْلٌ: see غِيلَةٌ, first sentence, in two places. b2: As some say, (Msb,) it signifies The milk with which a woman suckles while she is being compressed, (S, Msb, K, TA,) or while she is pregnant: (S, K, TA:) you say, سَقَتْهُ غَيْلًا, (Msb,) or الغَيْلَ, (K, TA,) i. e. She gave him to drink such milk. (TA.) A2: Also Water running upon the surface of the earth; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, K;) thus correctly, with fet-h; but ↓ غِيلٌ, with kesr, is a dial. var. thereof, mentioned by ISd: (TA:) both are said to signify water running amid trees: (Ham p. 555:) IB says that the former signifies thus; and that its pl. is غُيُولٌ: and it is also said to signify water running in rivers or rivulets, and in streamlets for irrigation: (TA:) and by some, to signify water running amid stones, in the interior of a valley. (Ham ubi suprà.) It is said in a trad., that in the case of that [produce] which is irrigated by the water thus termed (مَا سُقِىَ بَالغَيْلِ, S, Mgh, O, Msb, TA, or غَيْلًا, Mgh) there shall be [given for the poor-rate] the tenth; (S, Mgh, O, Msb, TA;) and in the case of that which is irrigated by the bucket, half of the tenth.

[See also an ex. voce صُبَابَةٌ.] b2: And Any valley in which are flowing springs: (K:) or a place in a collection of tangled, or abundant and dense, trees, in which is water running upon the surface of the earth: (Lth, TA:) and any place in which is water, (K, TA,) such as a valley and the like: (TA:) and ↓ غِيلٌ, with kesr, signifies any valley in which is water; and the pl. of this is أَغْيَالٌ [a pl. of pauc.] and غُيُولٌ. (K.) b3: See also غِيلٌ.

A3: Also A plump, full, سَاعِد [or fore arm]; (S, O, K;) and so ↓ مُغْتَالٌ: (K:) the latter said by Fr to be applied to a wrist as meaning full because from الغَوْلُ; but this saying is not valid, as غَيْلٌ is found in the same sense. (IJ, TA.) [See an ex. of the former in a verse cited voce طَفْلٌ.] And A fat, big, boy; as also ↓ مُغْتَالٌ: (K:) fem. of the former غَيْلَةٌ; (TA;) which is applied to a woman as meaning fat; (S, K;) or a fat, big, woman. (AO, TA.) b2: See also غَيِّلٌ, in two places.

A4: Also The ornamental, or figured, or variegated, border (syn. عَلَم) in a garment: (AA, K:) pl. أَغْيَالٌ. (AA, TA.) b2: And A line that one makes, or marks, upon a thing. (K.) غِيلٌ A thicket; or trees in a tangled, confused, or dense, state: (As, S, O:) or an abundance of such trees, (K, TA,) not thorn-trees, amid which one may conceal himself: (TA:) and ↓ غَيْلٌ signifies the same: (K:) and the former, a collection of reeds or canes, and of [the kind of high, coarse, grass called] حَلْفَآء: (K:) and i. q. أَجَمَةٌ [i. e. a collection, or an abundant collection, of tangled, confused, or dense, trees, or of reeds or canes]: (S, O, K) [and in like manner ↓ غَيْلَةٌ, occurring in the Deewán of the Hudhalees, is expl. by Freytag, as signifying “ saltus: ”] and the place [meaning covert] of the lion: it may not have the termination ة: the pl. is غُيُولٌ; (S, O;) and غَيَايِيلُ is said to be an anomalous pl. of غِيلٌ. (O and TA in art. عيل, voce عَيَّالٌ, q. v.) b2: See also غَيْلٌ, in two places.

غَيْلَةٌ: see غِيلَةٌ. b2: Also A single act of اِغْتِيَال [q. v. voce غِيلَةٌ]. (TA.) A2: See also غِيلٌ.

A3: It is also fem. of the epithet غَيْلٌ [q. v.]. (TA.) غِيلَةٌ and ↓ غَيْلٌ signify the same; (Mgh, O, Msb); i. e. The compressing one's wife while she is suckling: (Mgh, Msb:) thus expl. by AO as stated by A'Obeyd: (Mgh:) and thus the former signifies accord. to El-'Alkamee; and so says Málik: or, accord. to El-Munáwee, it signifies the compressing one's wife while she is suckling or pregnant: or, accord. to ISk, a woman's suckling while pregnant: (from a marginal note in a copy of the Jámi' es-Sagheer of Es-Suyootee, in explanation of a trad. mentioned in what here follows, commencing with the words لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ:) and ↓ غَيْلٌ has this last signification (Mgh, TA) accord. to Ks: (Mgh:) غِيلَةٌ is the subst. from اِسْتَغْيَلَتْ: (K:) and IAth says that ↓ غَيْلَةٌ is a dial. var. thereof; or, as some say, this denotes a single act [of what is termed غِيلَة]; or the pronunciation with fet-h is not allowable unless with the elision of the ة. (TA.) One says, أَضَرَّتِ الغِيلَةُ بِوَلَدِ فُلَانٍ, meaning His mother's being compressed while she was suckling him [injured the child of such a one], and likewise his mother's being pregnant while she was suckling him. (S, O.) [But] in a trad. is related the saying, (of the Prophet, O) “ Verily I had intended to forbid الغِيلَة (S, Mgh, * O, Msb, K) until I remembered that the Persians and the Greeks practise it and it does not injure their children. ” (Mgh, O, Msb.) [See also 4 in art. فسد.] b2: Also The act of deceiving, or beguiling: (K:) and i. q. ↓ اِغْتِيَالٌ: (S, O, K: [see 8, and غِيلَةٌ, as expl. in art. غول:]) accord. to Aboo-Bekr, in the language of the Arabs it signifies the causing evil, or slaughter, to come to another from an unknown quarter. (TA.) One says, قَتَلَهُ غِيلَةً, meaning He deceived, or, beguiled, him, and went with him, or took him, to a place, and slew him (S, O, K) when he reached it: (S, O:) or he slew him at unawares. (Abu-l- 'Abbás, TA.) A2: Also The شَقْشِقَة [or faucial bag of the he-camel]. (IAar, K.) أُمُّ غَيْلَانَ [in Pers\. مُغَيْلَان] A species of the [trees called] غِضَاه; (Mgh, Msb;) the [species of lote-] trees called سِدْر; (S, O, K, TA;) the fruit of which is said to be sweeter than honey: the saying, of some, that it is with kesr to the غ, and that it is thus called because the غِيلان [pl. of غُولٌ] are often found before it, is rejected and false: (TA:) Lth and ISh say that it is the same as the طَلْح [q. v.]. (TA in art. طلح.) غَيُولٌ, as stated by IJ, on the authority of Aboo-'Amr Esh-Sheybánee, who had it from his grandfather, is sing. of غُيُلٌ, (TA,) which is an epithet applied to oxen, or bulls and cows, (AO, IJ, O, K, TA, [نَفَرٌ in the CK being a mistake for بَقَرٌ,]) and to camels, (K,) signifying Numerous: and also [in the K “ or ”] fat. (AO, IJ, O, K.) b2: And, applied to anything, Alone; solitary: pl. غُيُلٌ. (AA, TA.) غَيِّلٌ, like سَيِّدٌ, (O, TA,) in the K ↓ غَيْلٌ, but this latter is said by ISd to be of weak authority, (TA,) applied to a garment, Wide, or ample. (O, K, TA.) And so غَيِّلَةٌ applied to a land: (O, TA: [mentioned also in art. غول:]) or, as some say, غَيِّلٌ, thus applied, (O, TA,) but accord. to the context in the K ↓ غَيْلٌ, (TA,) signifies Such as one judges to be of little extent, though it is far extending: (O, K, * TA:) and ذَاتُ غَوْلٍ, so applied, has been mentioned in art. غول as having this meaning. (TA.) And غَيِّلَةٌ applied to a woman signifies Tall: (O, TA:) and so does ذَاتُ غَوْلٍ. (TA in art. غول.) الغَيَّالُ The lion: (K) or the lion that is in the غِيل [or covert]. (O.) غَائِلٌ Much, or abundant, dust or earth. (TA.) غَائِلَةٌ Rancour, malevolence, malice, or spite, that is covert, or concealed. (K.) And Evil, or mischief; as also ↓ مَغَالَةٌ: (S, K:) thus in the saying فُلَانٌ قَلِيلُ الغَائِلَةِ and ↓ المَغَالَةِ [Such a one is a person of little evil or mischief]. (S.) b2: See also the same word in art. غول.

أَغْيَلُ Full; big, or large. (TA.) مُغَالٌ (Mgh, K) and ↓ مُغْيَلٌ (S, Mgh, K) A child given to drink what is termed غَيْل: (S, * K: [See 4:]) or suckled while its mother is pregnant. (Mgh.) مُغْيَلٌ: see the next preceding paragraph.

مُغِيلٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and مُغْيِلٌ (Mgh, Msb, K) A woman giving her child to drink what is termed غَيْل: (S, K: [see 4:]) or suckling it while she is pregnant. (Mgh, Msb.) مَغَالَةٌ: see غَائِلَةٌ, in two places.

مُغَيِّلٌ [in the CK مُغَيَّل] and ↓ مُتَغِيِّلٌ Continuing, or remaining fixed, or stationary, in the غِيل [meaning thicket, or covert, in the CK غَيْل]: and entering therein. (K, TA.) مِغْيَالٌ A tree (شَجَرَةٌ) having tangled, or abundant and dense, branches, with leafy coverings or shades. (K.) مُغْتَالٌ: see غَيْلٌ, latter half, in two places.

مُتَغَيِّلٌ: see مُغَيِّلٌ.
