شهب

1 شَهِبَ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـَ (Msb, K,) inf. n. شَهَبٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, *) It (a thing, S) was, or became, of the colour termed شُهْبَة, (S, Msb, K,) i. e. of a [gray] colour in which whiteness predominated over blackness, (S, Mgh, Msb,) or in which whiteness was interrupted by blackness; (K, * TA;) as also شَهُبَ, aor. ـُ and ↓ اشهبّ; (K;) the last, inf. n. اِشْهِبَابٌ, said in the former sense of a horse; as also ↓ اشهابّ, inf. n. اِشْهِيبَابٌ; (S;) and this last verb, said of the head, its whiteness predominated over its blackness; (TA;) as also ↓ اشتهب. (S, TA.) A2: شَهَبَهُ, aor. ـَ (K,) inf. n. شَهْبٌ, (TK,) said of heat and of cold, It altered his colour; as also ↓ شهّبهُ: (K:) or, accord. to A' Obeyd, (TA,) الشَّجَرَ ↓ شهّب, (O, TA,) inf. n. تَشْهِيبٌ, (O,) said of cold, It altered the colour of the trees: and شهّب ↓ النَّاسَ is likewise said of cold [as meaning It altered the colour of the men or people]. (O, TA.) b2: And شَهَبَتِ السَّنَةُ القَوْمَ The year of drought destroyed the cattle (أَمْوَال) of the people or party: (so accord. to the CK and my MS. copy of the K:) or the verb in this sense is ↓ أَشْهَبَت. (So accord. to the text of the K as given in the TA.) b3: [Freytag erroneously assigns to this verb, as from the K, another meaning, belonging to 4.]2 شَهَّبَ see the preceding paragraph, in three places.4 اشهب, said of a stallion, He had offspring of the colour termed شُهْبَة born to him: so accord. to the K: but accord. to IM and the other lexicologists, it is said of a man, meaning the offspring of his horses were of the colour termed شُهْبَة: IAar says that there are not, among horses, such as are termed شُهْبٌ [pl. of أَشْهَبُ]: A' Obeyd, however, [as will be seen below,] explains شُهْبَة as meaning a colour of horses. (TA.) b2: See also 1, last sentence but one.8 إِشْتَهَبَ and 9: see 1, first sentence.11 إِشْهَاْبَّ see 1, first sentence. b2: Also, said of seedproduce, (tropical:) It dried up, or became yellow, (S, A,) but with somewhat green remaining in its interstices: (S:) or was near to yielding, and became white, and dried up, but with a little greenness remaining in its interstices. (TA.) b3: Accord. to the L, one says also اشهابّت مَشَافِرُهُ [app. meaning His lips became of an ashy hue]. (TA.) شَهْبٌ A mountain overspread with snow. (O, K.) A2: And a boy, or young man, light, or active, in body, and sharp-headed. (IAar, TA voce عَضْبٌ. [See also شِهَابٌ.]) شَهَبٌ: see what next follows.

شُهْبَةٌ A [gray] colour in which whiteness predominates over blackness, (S, Msb,) or in which whiteness is interrupted by blackness; as also ↓ شَهَبٌ; (A, K;) which latter is [properly] an inf. n., of شَهِبَ: (S, Msb:) or whiteness mixed with blackness: (Har p. 150:) not pure whiteness, as some have imagined it to be. (TA.) And in horses, A colour in which the main hue is interrupted by a hoariness, or by some white hairs, whether the horse be [in his general colour] كُمَيْت or أَشْقَر or أَدْهَم. (A' Obeyd, TA.) شَهَبَانٌ A kind of plant (شَجَرٌ), resembling the ثُمَام [or panic grass]; (K;) like شَبَهَانٌ. (TA.) [But see this last word.]) شَهَابٌ (AHát, S, K) and ↓ شُهَابَةٌ (AHát, Kr, K) Milk mixed with much water: (AHát, S:) or a mixture of which one third is milk and the rest water: (K, TA:) Az heard several of the Arabs apply the former term to milk mixed with water: so called on account of the alteration of its colour. (TA.) شِهَابٌ, in its primary acceptation, A شُعْلَة [i. e.either brand or flame (app. the former, agreeably with what follows,)] of fire: (TA:) or a شُعْلَة of fire gleaming or radiating: (S, K:) accord. to ISk, a firebrand; i. e. a stick in which is fire: or, accord. to AHeyth, originally, a piece of wood, or stick, in which is fire gleaming or radiating: (Az, TA:) pl. شُهُبٌ, (S, K,) and some allow شُهْبٌ, (TA,) and شُهْبَانٌ (Akh, S, K) and شِهْبَانٌ, (K,) which is strange, (TA,) and أَشْهُبٌ, (K,) which last is [a pl. of pauc., but] thought by IM to be a quasi-pl. n. (TA.) The reading بِشِهَابِ قَبَسٍ, instead of بِشِهَابٍ قَبَسٍ, in the Kur [xxvii. 7], is an instance of a word prefixed to another identical therewith. (Fr. L.) b2: Hence, [A shooting, or falling, star;] a star, or the like of a star, that darts down [or is hurled] by night; and particularly after a devil; as occurring in the Kur [xv. 18 and] xxxvii. 10; and in a trad.; respecting the attempt of a devil to hear, by stealth, words uttered in heaven. (TA.) b3: [Hence also,] الشُّهُبُ signifies The shining, or brightly-shining, stars: (K:) or the seven stars [or planets; meaning, not the Pleiades (which are called النَّجْمُ), but the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn: the first three of which are said by Freytag to be called صِغَارُ الشُّهُبِ]. (TA.) b4: For another meaning assigned in the K to الشُّهُبُ, see الشُّهْبُ, voce أَشْهَبُ. b5: شِهَابٌ also signifies (tropical:) One who is penetrating, sharp, or energetic, in an affair; (K, TA;) as being likened to the [shooting] star. (TA.) One says, إِنَّ فُلَانًا لَشِهَابُ حَرْبٍ (tropical:) Verily such a man is one who is penetrating, sharp, or energetic, in war. (S, A. *) and هٰؤُلَآءِ شُهْبَانُ الجَيْشِ (tropical:) [These are the braves, or heroes, of the army]. (A.) b6: Also the name of A certain devil: occurring in a trad.: hence the Prophet changed the name of a certain man [originally] thus named. (TA.) شُهَابَةٌ: see شَهَابٌ.

كَتِيبَةٌ شَهَّابَةٌ: see أَشْهَبُ.

شَاهِبٌ: see أَشْهَبُ, first sentence.

شَوْهَبٌ The hedge-hog; syn. قُنْفُذٌ. (S, K.) أَشْهَبُ Of the colour termed شُهْبَةٌ; (S, Msb, K;) as also ↓ شَاهِبٌ, (K,) occurring in the poetry of Hudheyl: (TA:) fem. of the former شَهْبَآءُ: (S, Msb, K: *) and pl. شُهْبٌ: (O:) the former epithet is applied to a horse, (S,) [contr. to an assertion of IAar, (see 4,)] and to a he-mule, (Msb,) and شَهْبَآءُ to a she-mule. (Mgh, Msb.) [Golius, on the authority of Meyd, explains أَشْهَبُ أَدْهَمُ, applied to a horse, as meaning Subniger, spadiceus: and أَشْهَبُ أَخْضَرُ as meaning lucide leviterve viridis: the correct meaning of the former seems to be of a blackish, or brownish, gray: and that of the latter, of a dark dustcoloured gray: see أَدْهَمُ and أَخْضَرُ.] الشَّهْبَآءُ was the name of a mare belonging to El-Kattál ElBejelee. (O, K; in the CK El-Bejlee.) Applied to a she-goat, شَهْبَآءُ signifies Of a white colour intermixed with black: thus applied, it is like مَلْحَآءُ applied to a ewe. (K.) Applied to a غُرَّة [or blaze on a horse's forehead], it means In which are hairs differing from the whiteness [of the blaze]. (S.) And الأَشَاهِبُ is [a pl. formed from الأَشْهَبُ as though this were a subst.] applied to the Benu-l-Mundhir, (K,) or one of the troops of En-Noamán Ibn-El-Mundhir, consisting of the sons of his paternal uncle and his maternal uncles, and their brethren; (TA;) so called because of their comeliness, (K,) or because of the whiteness of their faces. (TA.) b2: Applied to ambergris, (K, TA,) (assumed tropical:) Of an excellent colour, i. e., (TA,) inclining to whiteness. (K, TA.) And applied to an iron head or blade of an arrow or of a spear &c., (tropical:) That has been filed so that its blackness has gone: (S, A, TA:) or that has been filed lightly, so that all its blackness has not gone. (AHn, TA.) [Hence,] كَتِيبَةٌ شَهْبَآءُ (assumed tropical:) A great troop having numerous weapons; (K;) so called because of the iron; (S;) or because of the whiteness of the weapons and iron, intermixed with blackness: or a troop of which the iron [of the weapons and armour] is white and bright: (TA:) or, as also ↓ كَتِيبَةٌ شَهَّابَةٌ, a troop upon which is [seen] the whiteness of the iron [weapons &c.]. (T, TA.) [See also كَتِيبَةٌ مَلْحَآءُ, voce أَمْلَحُ.]) And جَيْشٌ أَشْهَبُ A strong army [app. because of its numerous weapons]. (TA.) b3: أَرْضٌ شَهْبَآءُ (assumed tropical:) A land in which is no verdure, by reason of the paucity of rain. (TA.) And [hence,] سَنَةٌ شَهْبَآءُ (tropical:) A year of drought, or sterility, white in consequence thereof, (TA,) in which is no verdure, or in which is no rain: (K, TA:) next in degree is the بَيْضَآء; then, the حَمْرَآء, which is more severe than the بَيْضَآء; (TA;) and then, the سَوْدَآء: (TA in art. حمر:) or a year that is white by reason of the abundance of snow and the want of herbage: (IB, TA:) or a year of drought, or sterility; because the seedproduce dries up therein, and becomes yellow: and عَامٌ أَشْهَبُ signifies the same. (Har p. 150.) And أَشْهَبَانِ (assumed tropical:) Two white years (عَامَانِ أَبْيَضَانِ) between which is no verdure (K, TA) of herbage. (TA.) And يَوْمٌ أَشْهَبُ (tropical:) A cold day: (A, K:) or a day of cold wind; thought to be so called on account of the snow and hoar frost and hail therein: (L, TA:) or a day of hoar-frost: (Az, TA:) a day of cold wind and hoar frost; and [in like manner] the night (اللَّيْلَةُ) is termed شَهْبَآءُ. (S.) In the following verse, cited by Sb, فِدًى لِبَنِى ذُهْلِ بْنِ شَيْبَانَ نَاقَتِى إِذَا كَانَ يَوْمٌ ذُو كَوَاكِبَ أَشْهَبُ [May my she-camel be a ransom for the sons of Dhuhl Ibn-Sheybán when there is a day of difficulties, or distresses, . . .] the meaning may be اشهب [or whitish] by reason of the whiteness of the weapons, or by reason of the dust. (TA.) and الشُّهْبُ [pl. of أَشْهَبُ], (O,) or ↓ الشُّهُبُ [pl. of شِهَابٌ], (K,) [but the former, I think, is evidently the right,] (assumed tropical:) The white nights; (اللَّيَالِى البِيضُ;) [i. e. the thirteenth and fourteenth and fifteenth nights of the lunar month; so called because lighted by the moon throughout, (see art. بيض;)] (O;) three nights of the month; (K, TA;) because of the alteration of their colour. (TA.) b4: أَشْهَبُ [or أَمْرٌ أَشْهَبُ] also signifies (assumed tropical:) A hard, or difficult, affair or case, (K, TA,) such as is disliked, or hated. (TA.) And أَشْهَبُ بَازِلٌ (assumed tropical:) A hard, or difficult, affair or case, that is beyond one's power [of accomplishment or endurance]: termed بازل because the camel thus termed is one that has attained its utmost strength. (O, TA. [See also art. بزل.]) b5: And الأَشْهَبُ signifies The lion. (O, K.) [And in the Deewán of Jereer, it is applied to The swine. (Freytag.)]
