And عُثَّ, said of wool [&c.], It was eaten, or fretted, by the عُثّ [or moth-worm, or moth-worms]. (TA.) b2: Also, (O, TA,) aor. as above, (TA,) and so the inf. n., (K, TA,) said of a serpent (حَيَّة), It bit him. (O, K, TA.) And It (a serpent) blew upon him, without biting him, and his hair in consequence fell off. (TA.) b3: And عَثَّنِى, (O,) inf. n. as above, (K,) He importuned me (O, K *) by asking. (TA.) [And عَتَّنِى signifies the same.]2 عَثَّّ see the next paragraph, in two places.3 عاتّ, (O,) inf. n. مُعَاثَّةٌ and عِثَاثٌ; (O, K;) and ↓ عثّث, (O,) inf. n. تَعْثِيثٌ; (K;) He raised his voice with singing: (O:) or he trilled, or quavered, in singing: (K:) or he raised his voice with singing, and trilled, or quavered: (L:) and عاثّ فِى غِنَائِهِ, inf. n. as above; and ↓ عثّث; he trilled, or quavered, in his singing. (TA.) And عِثَاثٌ is also used to signify The sounding [or ringing] of a bow when its string has been pulled to try its strength: some say that it is like the تَرَنُّم [or ringing] of a basin when it has been struck. (O, TA.) عَثٌّ: see عُثَّةٌ.

عُثٌّ i. q. سُوسٌ [i. e. The moth-worm that eats, or frets, wool, or woollen cloths]: (Msb:) [and the book-worm, or species of moth-worm that eats books: applied to both of these in the present day: and,] accord. to IAar, an insect [of the same kind] that clings to skin, or leather, and eats it: (TA:) [and the weevil; i. e.] the kind of worm, or grub, that eats corn; also called سُوسٌ: (M in art. سوس:) one thereof is termed ↓ عُثَّةٌ: (Msb:) [i. e.] عُثَّةٌ signifies a سُوسَة [or mothworm] that eats, or frets, wool: (S, A, O, K:) or a worm, or grub, that attacks wool and cloths (Mgh and Msb in art. سوس) and wheat or other food; (Mgh in that art.;) also called سُوسَةٌ: (Mgh and Msb in that art.:) and it is said to be the أَرَضَة, [generally signifying the wood-fretter, but here meaning] a certain insect that eats wool, and skin, or leather: (Msb:) the pl. of عُثَّةٌ is عُثَثٌ, (O,) or عُثٌّ, (K,) or both, (S,) or [rather]

عُثٌّ, which is expl. by IDrd as a pl., is a gen. n., having a pl. meaning though it is a sing: (TA:) the pl. of عُثٌّ is عِثَاثٌ. (Msb.) An Arab of the desert, being asked respecting his son, said, أُعْطِيهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مِنْ مَالِى دَانِقًا وَإِنَّهُ فِيهِ لَأَسْرَعُ مِنَ العُثِّ فِى الصُّوفِ فِى الصَّيْفِ [I give him, every day, of my property, a dánik (a small silver coin), and verily he is quicker in consuming it than the moth-worm in wool in the summer]. (TA.) And one says, فُلَانٌ عُثُّ مَالٍ, (S, O,) meaning (assumed tropical:) Such a one is a consumer of property; (PS;) like as one says إِزَآءُ مَالٍ, (S, O,) meaning “ a manager of property. ” (PS.) [See also عُثَّةٌ below: and عُثَيْثَةٌ.]

A2: أَطْعَمَنِى سَوِيقًا حُثًّا عُثًّا means [He fed me with meal of parched barley or wheat] not moistened and beaten up with anything greasy [such as clarified butter &c.]. (O: in the TA حُثًّا وَعُثًّا.) عَثَّةٌ: see the paragraph here following.

عُثَّةٌ: see عُثٌّ. b2: It is also an appellation of (tropical:) An old woman: (S, O, K:) as though, by reason of her corrupt state or conduct, and want of skill or understanding, she were a سُوسَة. (TA.) b3: Also, (O, K, TA,) and ↓ عَثَّةٌ, (TA,) A woman foul, or obscene, in tongue; (O, K, TA;) despised; obscure, or reputeless: (TA:) and a foolish, or stupid, woman: (O, K:) or, the former signifies, accord. to Az, a woman obscure, or reputeless; whether she be, or be not, lean, or emaciated: and the latter, accord. to IDrd, a woman lean, or spare, in body: and in like manner ↓ عَثٌّ applied to a man: (O:) the pl. of عثّة is عِثَاثٌ. (TA.) عِثَاثٌ Vipers that eat one another in a time of drought. (O, K.) b2: Also pl. of عُثٌّ: (Msb:) b3: and of عُثَّةٌ or عَثَّةٌ. (TA.) عُثَيْثَةٌ dim. of عُثَّةٌ [n. un. of عُثٌّ, q. v.]. (L.) It is said in a prov., عُثَيْثَةٌ تَقْرِمُ جِلْدًا أَمْلَسَا [A little moth-worm gnawing a smooth skin]: applied to a man endeavouring to make an impression, or produce an effect, upon a thing, and unable to do so: (S, O, L, K: *) and said in contempt of a man and of what the latter says in finding fault with one who is free from faults. (O.) عَثَّآءُ The serpent. (O, K.)

عل: علل المريض: ألهاه، سلاه، صرفه عن الشعور بالألم وجعله ينساه. ففي حيان (ص13 ق): وتابع في تعليل الخصيّ والطافه حتى أفاق من علته.
علل: خدع، استغوى. (بوشر).
علل نفسه ب: شغل نفسه وألهاها بالأماني (بوشر).
علل نفسه بالمحال: خادع نفسه ومناها الأماني الباطلة. (بوشر). وفي تاريخ البربر (1: 605): عللهم بالمواعيد الكاذبة أي خادعهم بالمواعيد الكاذبة.
وفيه (2: 217): علله بالقعُود عن نصره، أي خادع ابن الأحمر بأنه لا يساعد أبو تاشفين وفي المقري (1: 841).
علل بالمسك قلبي رشا أحور.
وقد ترجمه السيد فليشر إلى الألمانية بما معناه ظبي أحور يطيب قلبي بالمسك.
علل الحديث: قال إنه غير صحيح، ضد صحَّح. (المقري 1: 711).
علل: صفى، روَّق. (زيشر 11، 515).
علل: انظر عن المعنى الأخير في معجم لين (الماوردي ص44، 311، 312، أبو الوليد ص618).
أعله: أمرضه، ففي لطائف الثعالبي (ص24): عاده في علة اعلته.
نعلل. تعلل بالباطل: تلهى بالباطل (بوشر).
تعلل بعسى ولعل: خادع نفسه وتمنى الأماني الكاذبة. (بوشر).
تعلل: اعتذر، قدم المعاذير. (لين، عبد الواحد ص174).
تعلل: قدم المعاذير أو الحجج. (البيضاوي 2: 48). وفي تاريخ البربر 2: 217): تعلل بالمعاذير، أي اعتذر بعدة حجج منعته من. وفي حياة ابن خلدون (ص206 ق): تعلل عليه بالاستزادة من العطاء أي أبدى كثيراً من الحجج والمعاذير ليزيد في عطائه. تعلل على فلان: بحث عن حجج ضده. (بيان 1: 170).
تعلل على: تذرع بحجج. (بيان 1: 184).
انعل: اعتل، أصيب بعلة، مرض. (فوك). اعتل: مرض، أصيب بعلة. ويستعمل هذا الفعل مجازاً في الكلام عن قنطرة أو بناية أصبحت في حالة سيئة تنذر بخرابها. (معجم البلاذري، كرتاس ص46).
اعتل: أخطأ، أذنب، (المقري 2: 520).
اعتل له ب: احتج له بحجة ودافع عنه. (معجم مسلم).
علّ ولعلّ: أن كان، إذا كان، وهي تدل على الشك. (معجم البلاذري، معجم الطرائف).
علة: عيب، شائبة. نقص. (المقدمة 2: 396 رقم 1، 405).
ازاح علتّه: يظهر أن معناه أزاح حجته ومعاذيره وليس أزاح مرضه، لأن كلمة علة في هذه العبارة تعني الحجة والعذر ولا تعني المرض (لين في مادة زيح، ويظهر إنه متردد في هذا المعنى) كما يؤيد هذا الفعل اعتذر في عبارة المقريزي (1: 334): وإذا أزاح الله العلل ما اعتذر غاز ولا شكا، أي: إذا أزال الله الأعذار والحجج (ورفع الموانع) فلا يمكن أن يعتذر محارب ولا أن يشكو. فكلمة علة تعني الحجة والعذر لئلا يسير إلى الغزاة، وهذه الحجة أو العذر سببها عدم توفر ما يحتاج إليه الغازي من أسباب.
وجملة أزاح عللهم تستعمل. خاصة بمعنى: جهز الجنزد وزودهم بما يحتاجون إليه حين يرفضون السير إلى الحرب بحجة نقص ما يحتاجون إليه في الحرب. ففي أساس البلاغة (مادة زيح): أزحت علته فيما احتاج إليه. وفي الفخري (ص63): فتقدم نور الدين إلى صلاح الدين بالتوجه صحبه عمه صحبة عمه أسد الدين شيركوه فاستعفاه صلاح الدين من التوجه وقال ليس لي استعداد فتقدم نور الدين بإزاحة علكه (علله) وجزم عليه في التوجه. وفي منتخبات من تاريخ العرب (ص550 وص558): مركاتبك إليه حتى تزيح علته فهذه العبارة تعني إذا في الغالب زوده بما يحتاج اليه، كما أشار إلى ذلك السيد جويارد في مجلة النقد لسنة 1874 (10 أكتوبر ص228).
وينقل (ص4): ما يجب على الرجال من حسن معاشرة النساء وصيانتهن وإزاحة عللهن (وقد أسيء ترجمتها إلى اللاتينية بما معناه: إزالة ما يعرض لهن من الأمراض). (المقدمة 1: 303، تاريخ البربر 1: 459، 502، 511، 524، 557) وكثيراً ما يتردد هذا في تاريخ البربر، ابن خلدون طبعة نور تبرج ص20 (وتعليقة الناشر في ص132 ليست صحيحة كل الصحة) (قصة عنتر ص46) ويقال أيضاً هذا للأشياء فيقال مثلاً: أزاح علل الثغور أي جهز الثغور بما تحتاج إليه.
علة. علل العلم أو الفن قواعده وقوانينه، كما يقول كوزجارتن، وهو مصيب، قي تعليقاته على الأغاني (ص217)، وانظر الأغاني (ص2).
وفي كتاب عبد الواحد (ص104): وكان مع سهولة الشعر عليه وإكثاره منه قليل المعرفة بعلله لم يجد الخوض في علومه (ص221 منه) وفي المقري (1: 603): علل الوثائق وهي القواعد التي نلتزم في كتابتها. وفيه (1: 507): برع في الحديث وعلله ورجاله، وعلل الحديث: القواعد التي نلتزم في دراسته. وكذلك في (1: 521، 534، 595 منه). وكثير من الكتب تحمل هذا العنوان، فيقال مثلاً: علل النحو، وعلل القراءات وغير ذلك. انظرها حاجي خليفة (4: 245 - 246) حيث أخطأ فلوجل بترجمتها دائماً إلى اللاتينية بما معناه عيوب وإن كان هذا من معانيها أيضاً.
العلة: عند الفلاسفة، الدافع والسبب الثاني، أما العلة الأولى فهي السبب (المقدمة 2: 365، 366).
علة الخلق أو علة العلل: سبب الخلق، أو الخالق المبدع أو خلق المبدع أو خلق الكون وإبداعه. أو بالأحرى سبب الأسباب. وهو عند الدروز الهمزة. (دي ساسي طرائف 2: 91، 261، 274).
عليل: عذب، لطيف، يقال: نسيم عليل إذا كان معتدل البرد لطيفاً. (هو جفلايت ص96، 98 رقم، 137).
عُلالة: قليل جداً، غير كافٍ (فوك).
علالة: هي في الأندلس نبات اسمه العلمي Polypodium Dryopteris وفي ابن البيطار (1: 420): وهو العلالة أيضاً عند بعض شجاربنا بالأندلس.
علاَّلة: قنينة، قارورة، زجاجة. (فوك، الكالا) وفي معجم الكالا ذكرت أولاً بلام واحدة من غير تشديد وجمعها بالألف والتاء، ثم ذكرت بلام مشددة وجمعها علائل.
مُعِّل. عند الدروز: معل علة العلل بمعنى السبب المؤثر في سبب الأسباب (يعني همزة) وهو الحاكم والإله الأسمى. (دي ساسي طرائف 2: 91،97، 263، 274).
مُعَّلل: يقال عن إسناد أو نص حديث فيه خطأ خفي سببه خطأ الراوي (دي سلان المقدمة 2: 483).
مِعلال: كثير العلل والأمراض (فوك).
معلول: معمول، مفعول. والجمع معلولات (بدرون ص20).

(Msb. See 4.) A6: [عُلَّ الشَّىْءُ is mentioned in the S, with the addition ↓ فَهُوَ مَعْلُولٌ, but without any explanation; perhaps as meaning The thing was caused; from عِلَّةٌ “ a cause,” of which مَعْلُولٌ (q. v.) is the correlative: but the context seems to indicate that it means the thing was used for the purpose of diverting from some want: Golius appears to have read عَلَّ, and to have been led by what next precedes it in the S to render it loco alterius rei fuit lactavitve res.]2 تَعْلِيلٌ signifies The giving to drink after giving to drink. (S.) See 4. [And see also 1, first sentence.] b2: And The plucking fruit one time after another. (S.) b3: And عللّٰهُ بِهِ, (S, O, K,) inf. n. as above (K) [and تَعِلَّةٌ, q. v.], He diverted, or occupied, him [so as to render him contented] with it; (S, O, K;) namely, a thing, (S, O,) or food, &c., (K, TA,) as, for instance, discourse, and the like; (TA;) like as the child is diverted, or occupied, with somewhat of food, by which he is rendered contented to be restrained from milk. (S, O, TA. *) One says, فُلَانٌ يُعَلِّلُ نَفْسَهُ بِتَعِلَّةٍ

[Such a one diverts, or occupies, himself, so as to render himself contented, with something diverting]. (S, O.) [See also مُعَلِّلٌ. And see 5.]

A2: Also The assigning a cause: and the asserting a cause. (KL.)

[The she-goat knows that I will not preserve her from the milking in the morning and the evening and the middle of the day nor from the cookingpot of my guests]: (O:) or, accord. to Az, عِلَالٌ signifies the milking after milking, before the udder requires it by the abundance of the milk. (TA.) [See also 6.]4 أَعْلَلْتُ الإِبِلَ I brought, or sent, back the camels from the water (S, O, K) after they had satisfied their thirst, (O,) or before they had satisfied their thirst: (S, K:) or, (S, O, K,) [if the latter is meant,] accord. to some of the etymologists, (S, O,) it is with غ; (S, O, K; [see 4 in art. غل;]) as though it were from the meaning of “ thirsting; ” but the former is what has been heard; (S, O;) and it means I gave the camels to drink the second draught, or watered them the second time, and then brought them, or sent them, back from the water, having their thirst satisfied; and thus, too, means الإِبِلَ ↓ عَلَّلَتُ; the contr. of أَغْلَلْنُهَا. (TA.) See also 1, first sentence. b2: And اعلّ القَوْمُ The people, or party, were, or became, persons whose camels had drunk the second time. (S, O, K. *) A2: اعلّهُ اللّٰهُ God caused him to be diseased, sick, or ill; (Msb, K;) as also ↓ عَلَّهُ, aor. ـُ (Msb.) One says, لَا أَعَلَّكَ اللّٰهُ, meaning May God not smite thee with a disease, a sickness, or an illness. (S, O.) b2: And اعلّهُ signifies also He made him, or pronounced him, to have an excuse (جَعَلَهُ ذَا عِلَّةٍ): whence إِعْلَالَاتُ الفُقَهَآءِ [The excusings of the lawyers].

غَدَآء; (M voce سُلْفَةٌ, and K voce لُمْجَةٌ, &c.;) and as a beast does with the cud: (TA:) he occupied himself so as to divert himself, and fed [or sustained] himself, with it: (Har p. 23:) and he whiled away his time with it. (W p. 55.) and تعلّل بالْمَرْأَةِ He diverted himself with the woman. (K.) b2: And تعلّل signifies also He occupied himself vainly. (S and TA in art. جدب: see a verse cited voce جَادِبٌ.) b3: And He made an excuse. (KL. [See also 8.]) b4: And تَعَلَّلَتْ مِنْ نِفَاسِهَا, and ↓ تَعَالَّتْ, (K, TA,) as also تَعَالَتْ, without teshdeed, (TA, [see 5 in art. علو,]) She passed forth from her state of impurity consequent upon childbirth, (K, * TA,) and became lawful to her husband. (TA.) 6 هُوَ يَتَعَالُّ نَاقَتَهُ means He milks the عُلَالَة [q. v.] of his she-camel. (TA.

(TA.) b2: And تَعَالَلْتُ النَّاقَةَ (assumed tropical:) I elicited from the she-camel what power she had [remaining] of going on. (S, O.) b3: And تَعَالَلْتُ نَفْسِى signifies the same as تَلَوَّمْتُهَا [app. meaning I waited for myself to accomplish a want, or an object of desire, so that I might avoid blame: for تَلَوَّمَ as signifying اِنْتَظَرَ and تَنَظَّرَ is trans. as well as intrans.; and seems to be originally similar to تَأَثَّمَ and تَحَنَّثَ &c.]. (TA.) b4: See also 5, last sentence.8 اعتلّ: see 1, latter half. b2: [Hence, اعتلّت الرِّيحُ (assumed tropical:) The wind became faint, or feeble.]

A2: See also 5, first sentence. b2: Also He excused himself; or adduced, or urged, an excuse, or a plea; (MA, K, * TA; *) or he laid hold upon a plea, or an allegation. (El-Fárábee, Msb.) You say, اعتلّ عَلَيْهِ بِعِلَّةٍ (S, MA, O) He adduced, or urged, an excuse, or a plea, or pretext, for it. (MA.) And hence, اِعْتِلَالَاتُ الفُقَهَآءِ [The pleas, or allegations, of the lawyers, which they adduce, or upon which they lay hold]. (Msb.) A3: اعتلّهُ He hindered, prevented, impeded, or withheld, him; turned him back or away; retarded him; or diverted him by occupying him otherwise; from an affair.

A2: عَلْ عَلْ (K, TA, in the O written as one word,) A cry by which one chides sheep or goats (Yaakoob, O, K) and camels. (O.) عَلُ: see art. علو.

عَلَّ and لَعَلَّ (S, O, Mughnee, K) are dial. vars.; or the former is the original, the ل being augmentative, (S, O, Mughnee,) prefixed for the purpose of corroboration: the meaning is expectation of a thing hoped for or feared; (S, O;) importing hope, or eager desire, and fear, or caution: (S, O, K:) each is a particle, like إِنَّ and لَيْتَ and كَأَنَّ and لٰكِنَّ: (S, O:) and like عَسَى [q. v.] in meaning; but like إِنَّ in government; (Mughnee;) governing the subject in the accus. case, and the predicate in the nom.: one says, عَلَّكَ تَفْعَلُ [Maybe, or perhaps, thou wilt do such a thing], and عَلِّى أَفْعَلُ [May-be I shall do], and لَعَلِّى أَفْعَلُ; and sometimes they said, عَلَّنِى and لَعَلَّنِى; (S, O;) and one says also ↓ عَلْ and ↓ لَعَلْ, with the ل quiescent, and ↓ عَلْكَ and ↓ لَعَلْكَ: (O:) [and accord. to general usage, one says, لَعَلَّ زَيْدًا قَائِمٌ May-be Zeyd is standing:] and the tribe of 'Okeyl made each to govern the subject in the gen. case, (S, O, Mughnee,) saying, لَعَلَّ زَيْدٍ قَائِمٌ; (S, O;) and allowed the pronouncing عَلِّ and لَعَلِّ: (Mughnee:) sometimes its subject is suppressed, as in عَلَّ أَنْ أَتَقَدَّمَ, meaning لَعَلَّنِى أَنْ

أَتَقَدَّمَ [May-be I shall precede]: (Ham p. 517:) the Koofees allow the mansoob aor. [immediately] after, on the authority of the reading of Hafs, [in the Kur xl. 38,] لَعَلِّى أَبْلُغَ الأَسْبَابَ [May-be I may reach the places of ascent, or the regions, or tracts, of the heavens]. (Mughnee.) Other dial. vars. of عَلّ are mentioned in art. لعل [q. v.]. (K.) عَلٌّ: see عَلَلٌ, in two places.

A2: Also [in the CK erroneously with damm to the ع in all the senses here following that are expl. in the K] An emaciated tick: (S, O:) or a big-bodied tick: or a small-bodied one: (K, TA:) pl. عِلَالٌ. (TA.) b2: And A man advanced in age, (S, O, K,) small in body, (S, O,) or slender, or spare; (K;) as being likened to the tick. (S, O.) And anything slender (دَقِيق, for رَقِيق in the K is a mistranscription, TA) in body, advanced in age. (M, K, * TA.) And A man whose skin is contracted by disease. (IDrd, O, K.) b3: Also One in whom is no good: Esh-Shenfarà says, وَلَسْتُ بِعَلٍّ [And I am not one in whom is no good: but the context seems rather to require one of the other meanings mentioned above: and another reading (بِفِلٍّ) is mentioned by De Sacy, in his Chrest. Ar., 2nd ed., ii. 359]. (O, TA.) b4: Also A man who visits women much, or often, (K, TA,) and diverts himself with them. (TA.) b5: And A big-bodied, large he-goat. (K.) عُلٌّ and عِلٌّ: see عُلْعُلٌ.

عَلَّةٌ A [single] second draught. (Mgh.) b2: and hence, (Mgh,) A woman's fellow-wife; her husband's wife: (Mgh, Msb, * K:) or, as some say, a step-mother: but the former is the more correct meaning: (Mgh:) pl. عَلَّاتٌ. (Msb.) Whence, بَنُو العَلَّاتِ The sons of one father by different mothers: as though, when he added by marriage a second wife to the first, he took a second draught. (S, * Mgh, O, * Msb, * K. *) أَوْلَادُ الأَخْيَافِ means the contr. of this: and أَوْلَادُ الأَعْيَانِ, the sons of the same father and mother. (Msb.) Accord. to IB, one says, هُمَا أَخَوَانِ مِنْ ضَرَّتَيْنِ [They two are brothers from two fellow-wives]; but they did not say, مِنْ ضَرَّةٍ: and accord. to ISh, one says, هُمْ بَنُو عَلَّةٍ and أَوْلَادُ عَلَّةٍ. (TA.) And it is said in a trad., الأَنْبِيَآءُ بَنُو عَلَّاتِ, (Mgh,) or أَوْلَادُ عَلَّاتٍ, (TA,) meaning The prophets are of different mothers, but of one religion: (T, Mgh, TA:) or of one faith, but of different religious laws or ordinances.

عِلَّةٌ An accident that befalls an object and causes its state, or condition, to become altered. (TA.) b2: And hence, (TA,) A disease, sickness, or malady; (S, O, K, TA;) because, by its befalling, the state becomes altered from strength to weakness; so says El-Munáwee in the “ Tow-keef: ” (TA:) or a disease that diverts [from the ordinary occupations; app. regarded as being from what next follows]: pl. عِلَلٌ (Msb) [and عِلَّاتٌ]. b3: Also An accident, or event, that diverts the person to whom it occurs from his course, (S, O, K,) or from the object of his want: (M:) as though it became a second occupation hindering him from his former occupation.

بِعِلَّةِ الرَّاحِلَةِ, meaning And 'Abd-Er-Rahmán was beating my leg with the pretence, or pretext, of his beating the side of the camel with his leg.

Zubeyr says, إِنَّ البَخِيلَ مَلُومٌ حَيْثُ كَانَ وَاٰ كِنَّ الجَوَادَ عَلَى عِلَّاتِهِ هَرِمُ [Verily the niggard is blamed wherever he be; but the liberal in all his circumstances is Herim]: (S, O:) meaning his companion Herim Ibn-Sinán El-Murree. (S in art. هرم.) عَلَلٌ and ↓ عَلٌّ [both mentioned in the first paragraph as inf. ns.] The second draught: or a drinking after drinking, uninterruptedly: (K:) or the former signifies a second drinking; one says عَلَلٌ بَعْدَ نَهَلٍ [a second drinking after a first drinking]: (S, O:) or a drinking after drinking: (Msb:) and the second watering of camels; the first being termed the نَهَل: (As, TA:) these two terms are also similarly used in relation to suckling: and one of the unknown poets says, ثُمَّ انْثَنَى مِنْ بَعْدِ ذَا فَصَلَّى

↓ عَلَى النَّبِىِّ نَهَلًا وَعَلَّا [Then he turned, or turned away or back, after that, and blessed the Prophet a first time and a second time]. (TA.) b2: Also, the former, Food that has been eaten. (Kr, TA.) [See also نَهَلٌ.]

(K, * TA.) A2: عَلِيلَةٌ also signifies A woman perfumed repeatedly: (AA, O, K, TA:) and accord. to AA, ↓ مُعَلَّلٌ, as used in a verse of Imra-el-Keys, signifies perfumed time after time. (O.)

(S, O, K, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 84.]) تَعِلَّةٌ an inf. n. of 2 [q. v.]. (Ham p. 91.) b2: See also عُلَالَةٌ, in two places.

مُعَلِّلٌ Giving to drink time after time. (K.) b2: And [hence,] That diverts with the saliva him who sucks it in [when kissing]; thus in a verse of Imra-el-Keys, accord. to one relation thereof; (O, and Har p. 566;) as expl. by Az; and thus, with ة, applied to a female: (Har:) but accord. to IAar, that aids with kindness after kindness (بِالْبِرِّ بَعْدَ البِرِّ [in Har على البرء بعد البرء]): another reading of the word in that verse, المُعَلَّل, has been expl. above, voce عَلِيلٌ, on the authority of AA.

(O.) b6: And Clouds disposed one above another; (S, O;) sing. as above: (S:) or [simply] clouds; so in the R; to which ISd adds containing rain: (TA:) or white clouds; (K, TA; a meaning assigned in the K to the sing.;) but this is said by Niftaweyh in explanation of the phrase بِيضٌ يَعَالِيلُ in a verse of Kaab Ibn-Zuheyr to which reference has been made above: (TA:) or [the sing. signifies] a white portion of clouds. (M, K.) b7: The pl. is also said to signify Lofty mountains; and Suh adds, from the upper parts of which water descends. (TA.) A2: Also, the sing., A camel having two humps.

شك

1 شَكَّ is intrans. by itself, and trans. by means of the particle فى: b2: one says شَكَّ الأَمْرُ, aor. ـُ [contr. to analogy in the case of an intrans. verb of this class], inf. n. شَكٌّ, The thing, or case, or affair, was, or became, dubious, or confused: (Msb:) b3: and شَكَّ فِيهِ, (MA, K,) first Pers\.

شَكَكْتُ فيه, (S, Msb,) aor. as above, (JM, PS, &c.,) and so the inf. n., (MA, &c.,) He doubted, wavered or vacillated in opinion, or was uncertain, respecting it; (MA, Msb, and so accord. to explanations of شَكٌّ [q. v. infrà] in the S and Msb and K &c.;) syn. اِرْتَابَ; (Msb;) and ↓ تشكّك signifies the same. (S, K.) b4: شَكَّ عَلَىَّ الأَمْرُ means شَقَّ [i. e. The case, or affair, was difficult, hard, distressing, &c., to me]: (O, TA:) or, as some say, [was such that] I doubted (شَكَكْتُ) respecting it. (TA.) A2: شَكَّ said of a camel, (IAar, S, K,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (S,) He limped, or halted; or had a slight lameness, (IAar, S, TA,) of his hind leg: (IAar, TA:) or his arm stuck to his side, (K, TA,) and he had a slight lameness in consequence thereof: (TA:) and ↓ اشتكّ, likewise said of a camel, he had a slight lameness; (Ibn-'Abbád, O, TA;) like شَكَّ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O.) b2: شَكٌّ also signifies The cleaving or sticking [of a thing to another thing]. (S, O, TA.) So in a verse of Aboo-Dahbal El-Jumahee cited voce يَلَبٌ. (S.) and one says, شَكَّتِ الرَّحِمُ The relationship was, or became, closely united. (O, TA. [See رَحِمٌ شَاكَّةٌ, voce شَاكٌّ.]) b3: شَكَّ فِى السِّلَاحِ, (K, TA,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,) He put on [or around him,] or attired himself with, the arms, or weapons, completely, not leaving any of them; (TA;) [as though] he entered amid them. (K, TA.) A3: شَكَكْتُهُ بِالرُّمْحِ, (S, O, Msb, in the K شَكَّهُ,) and بِالسَّهْمِ, and the like, aor. as above, (TA,) and so the inf. n., (Msb, TA,) I pierced, or transpierced, him, or it, (طَعَنْتُهُ, Msb, or خَزَقْتُهُ, O, and in like manner in the TA, but in my copies of the S خَرَقْتُهُ [meaning I made a hole in him, or it], and thus in one place in the TA, and اِنْتَظَمْتُهُ, S O, and in like manner in the K,) with the spear, (S, O, Msb, K,) and with the arrow, &c.: (TA:) but IDrd says that, accord. to some, شَكٌّ is only by the conjoining two things with an arrow or a spear: (O, TA:) [thus,] فَشَكَّ رِجْلَهُ مَعَ رِكَابِهِ means And he clave and transpierced his leg, or foot, together with his stirrup. (Mgh.) b2: [Hence,] شَكَكْتُ إِلَيْهِ البِلَادَ I traversed, or crossed, or cut through, the countries, or districts, to him. (O, TA.) b3: And شُكَّ عَلَيِه الثَّوْبُ The garment was put [or drawn] together upon him, and fastened with a thorn or a wooden pin: or was let down, or made to hang down, upon him. (TA.) b4: شَكُّوا بُيُوتَهُمْ They placed their tents in one row, or series, (O, Msb, K,) in one regular order, (T, TA,) near together. (Msb.) b5: Hence; شَكُّوا الأَرْحَامَ They made the relationships to be closely connected. (Msb.) And شُكَّ He was made, or asserted, to be connected with the lineage of another. (IAar, O.) b6: And شَكَكْتُهُ said of anything means I drew and joined, or adjoined, it [to another thing]. (Msb.) [And I infixed it in, or thrust it into, another thing.] b7: مَا شَكَّ كَفِى خَلِيلُهَا, [or, more probably, ما شُكَّ,] a phrase in a verse of El-Farezdak,] in which it forms an apodosis,] means مَا قَارَنَ [i. e., app., Its friend (the sword, or the spear, both of which are meanings of الخَلِيل,) would not be conjoined (or grasped) with my hand]. (TA.) b8: شَكَّ الثَّوْبَ He (the sewer) made the stitch-holes far apart [in sewing the garment, or piece of cloth]. (O, TA.) [Thus the verb has two contr. meanings.]

A4: شَكِكْتُ إِلَيْهِ, with kesr, and شَكِكْتُهُ, (Ibn-'Abbád, O, and so in the K accord. to the TA, as also in the TK, in the CK and in my MS. copy of the K شَكَكْتُهُ and اليه,) I inclined to him, or it; or trusted to, or relied upon, him, or it, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind; or leaned, rested, or relied, upon him, or it; syn. رَكَنْتُ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) 2 شكّكنى فِيهِ, (S, O, K, *) inf. n. تَشْكِيكٌ, (O,) He made me to doubt, to waver or vacillate in opinion, or to be uncertain, respecting it; (S, K, TA;) he threw me, or made me to fall, into doubt, &c., respecting it. (O.) 5 تَشَكَّّ see the first paragraph.8 إِشْتَكَ3َ see the first paragraph.

شَكٌّ [used as a subst.] signifies Doubt; (Msb; [see 1;]) or the contr. of يَقِينٌ; (S, O, Msb, K;) by which explanation is meant a wavering or vacillation in opinion between two things, whether they be equal [in probability] or such that one of them outweighs [therein] the other; or, as the expositors explain its meaning in the Kur x. 94, uncertainty: (Msb:) or a wavering or vacillation in opinion, between two inconsistent things, without making either of them to outweigh the other in the estimation of him who conceives the شَكّ: or, as some say, a pausing, or hesitation, between two extremes that are equal [in probability], without the mind's inclining to either of them: when one of them is made to outweigh, without the other's being rejected, it is ظَنٌّ: (KT:) accord. to Er-Rághib, it is the alternation, or confusedness, of two inconsistent things, in the judgment of a man, and their being equal: this is sometimes because of there being two indications, equal in his judgment, of the two inconsistent things; or of there being no indication thereof: and sometimes it relates to the question whether a thing be, or be not; and sometimes, to the question of what kind it is; and sometimes, to some of its qualities; and sometimes, to the accident that is the cause of its being: it is a species of جَهْل; but is more special than this; for جهل is sometimes the utter nonexistence of knowledge of the two inconsistent things; so that every شكّ is جهل, but every جهل is not شكّ: (TA:) accord. to some, the primary meaning is a state of commotion, or disturbance, of the heart and mind: (Msb:) pl. شُكُوكٌ. (K.) b2: [Hence, يَوْمُ الشَّكِ The day of which one doubts whether it be the last of one month or the first of the next month: and generally, whether it be the last of Shaabán or the first of Ramadán; and to fast on this day is forbidden.]

A2: Also A small crack in a bone. (K.) b2: And A seam, or line of sewing, of a garment. (L in art. صوح.) b3: [And accord. to Freytag, A coat of mail composed of narrow rings: but he names no authority for this.]

A3: And [Arsenic;] a certain medicament, that destroys rats; brought from Khurásán, from the mines of silver; (K, TA;) of two kinds, (TA,) white and yellow; (K, TA;) now known by the name of سَمُّ الفَأْرِ [ratsbane]. (TA.) شِكٌّ A covering (حُلَّة) that is put upon the backs of the two curved extremities of the bow: (K:) so says ISd. (TA.) شَكَّةٌ [an inf. n. of un.] A single piercing through two men on a horse. (Ham p. 271.) شُكَّةٌ i. q. شُقَّةٌ: (O, K:) so in the saying, إِنَّه لَبَعِيدُ الشُّكَّةِ [Verily he is one whose region to which he directs himself is far distant]. (O.) شِكَّةٌ Arms, or weapons, (S, K, TA,) that are worn. (TA.) b2: And A broad piece of wood, (K,) or small broad piece of wood, (S, O,) that is put into the hole (خُرْت) [in which is inserted the end of the handle] of the axe, or adz, and the like, in order to narrow it.

(IAar, TA.) A2: [Also said to be pl. of شَكِيكَةٌ, q. v.]

شِكَاكٌ Tents arranged in a row: (O, K:) one says, ضَرَبُوا بُيُوتَهُمْ شِكَاكًا They pitched their tents in one row: but accord. to Th, it is سِكَاكًا, [q. v.], from السِّكَّةُ. (TA.) شَكُوكٌ (tropical:) A she-camel of which one doubts whether she be fat or not (S, K, TA) in her hump, (K, TA,) by reason of the abundance of her fur, wherefore her hump is felt: (S, TA:) pl. شُكٌّ. (K.) شُكُوكٌ Sides; syn. جَوَانِبُ. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, TA.) [Perhaps pl. of شَكَاكَةٌ (q. v.), next after which it is mentioned in the O; like as صُلِىٌّ (originally صُلُوىٌ) is pl. of صَلَايَةٌ.]

شَكَاكَةٌ A region, quarter, or tract, syn. نَاحِيَةٌ, of the earth. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K.) شَكِيكَةٌ A party, sect, or distinct body or class, (AA, S, O, K,) of men: (AA, S, O:) pl. شَكَائِكُ; (AA, S;) [and app. شِكَكٌ also, for,] accord. to IAar, شِكَكٌ signifies distinct bodies of soldiers. (TA.) A2: A way, course, mode, or manner, of acting or conduct or the like: (IDrd, O, K:) thus in the saying, دَعْهُ عَلَى شَكِيكَتِهِ [Leave thou him intent on pursuing his way, &c.]: (IDrd, O:) pl. شَكَائِكُ (IDrd, O, K) and شُكُكٌ, (so in copies of the K,) or شِكَكٌ; if the latter of these two, extr. [with respect to analogy]. (TA.) b2: And Natural disposition; syn. خُلُقٌ. (TK, as from the K. [The only reading that I find in copies of the K is with ح in the place of خ, i. e. حَلْق; and thus, but without any vowel-sign, in the TA: but I think that the right reading is evidently that in the TK.]) A3: Also The [kind of basket called]

سَلَّة in which are [put] fruits. (Ibn-'Abbád, O, K, *) A4: And [the pl.] شَكَائِكُ signifies The pieces of wood with which, they being joined together, are formed the tent-like tops of the vehicles called هَوَادِج [pl. of هَوْدَجٌ]. (AA, O, TA.) شُكُكَّةٌ, applied to a woman, meaning Just in proportion, or beautiful, and slender; or light, or active, in her work; and clever; is vulgar. (TA.) شَكِّىٌّ, (so in the O, occurring there in three instances,) or شُكِّىٌّ, (thus in the K, [but if this were the right reading, the rule of the author would require him to add “ with damm,” therefore I suppose it to have been mistranscribed in an early copy of the K,]) applied to a لِجَام [i. e. bit, or bridle], Difficult.
