النَّفْسُ
صِيبَ
” he explains
صِيبَ as being like
قُصِدَ, and says that it may be of the dial. of him who says
صَابَ
السَّهْمُ; but [ISd remarks,] I know not how this is, for
صَابَ
السَّهْمُ is not trans.; [though, as shown above, he has mentioned it as
being trans.;] and in my opinion, [he says,]
صيب here is from the phrase
صَابَتِ
السَّمَآءُ
الأَرْضَ [expl. above; the meaning of the verse being, But how should the
censuring women hope for my constraining myself to behave with hardiness, and
for my being patient, when the beloved of the soul has been smitten by

أَخْطَأَ. (A.) And
اصاب
بِغْيَتَهُ (assumed tropical:) He attained, or obtained, the thing
that he sought, or wanted: whence the saying,
اصاب
مِنْ

wife: (Msb:)
اصاب
مِنِّى occurs in a trad., [as a euphemism,] said by the wife of Handhaleh,
meaning (assumed tropical:) He compressed me: (Mgh:) and it is said in a

right. (TA. [See also 10.]) And (assumed tropical:) He aimed at it;
(As, TA;) (tropical:) he desired, wished, willed, intended, or meant,
it. (As, M, A, Msb, TA.) One says,
أَصَابَ
فُلَانٌ
الصَّوَابَ
فَأَخْطَأَ
الجَوَابَ (assumed tropical:) Such a one aimed at, and desired, [to
say] that which was right, (As, Msb, * TA,) and failed of giving

تَجْرِى
بِأَمْرِهِ
رُخَآءً

أَصَابَ, in the Kur [xxxviii. 35, referring to the wind], has been expl. as
meaning (assumed tropical:) [Running by his command softly, or gently,]
whithersoever He desireth. (M, * TA.) And
اصاب
اللّٰهُ
الَّذِى

interpretation of a text, means (assumed tropical:) God desireth, or
meaneth, [thereby,] what He desireth, or meaneth. (TA.) And

بِكَ
خَيْرًا means
أَرَادَهُ (tropical:) [i. e. May God intend thee good]. (A.) And
اصاب alone (assumed tropical:) He desired, or intended, or
meant, that which was right. (M, K. *) One says also,
اصابهُ
بِخَيْرٍ (assumed tropical:) [meaning He did good to him]. (El-Muärrij,

اسو.) [But]
اصابهُ
بِكَذَا, (M,) inf. n.
إِِصَابَةٌ, (K,) with which are syn. ↓
مُصَابٌ [in accordance with a usage generally allowable] (S, TA) and ↓
مُصَابَةٌ , (K, TA,) (assumed tropical:) [generally] means He
afflicted him with, or by, such a thing; or gave pain to him
thereby. (M, K: * in the latter, only the inf. n. of the verb in this sense;
and so in other senses.) [Thus one says,
اصابهُ
بِشَرٍّ (assumed tropical:) He afflicted him with evil; or did
evil to him: and
اصابهُ
بِمَكْرُوهٍ (assumed tropical:) He afflicted him with, or did to
him, an abominable, or an evil, thing or action: and

a foul saying: and
اصابهُ
بِذَحْلٍ (assumed tropical:) He punished him by blood-revenge: and
اصابهُ
بِمَرَضٍ (assumed tropical:) He, (i. e. God,) or it, (a
thing,) affected him with disease; or rendered him diseased: and
in many similar cases, the phrase may be well rendered with a verb derived from
the noun; like phrases in which “ affecit ” (a Latin equivalent of
اصاب) occurs; as in “ honore affecit, ” meaning “ honoravit. ”] El-Hárith
Ibn-Khuld El-Makhzoomee says, “
رَجُلًا↓أَظُلَيْمُ
إِِنَّ
مُصَابَكُمْ
أَهْدَى
السَّلَامَ
تَحِيَّةً
ظُلْمُ
” (assumed tropical:) [O Dhuleymeh, verily your afflicting a man who has
given the salutation of peace, greeting, is tyranny]: IB says that this
verse is not of El- 'Arjee, as El-Hareeree imagined it to be: the correct
reading is
أَظُلَيْمُ, as above:
ظليم is an apocopated from of
ظُلَيْمَةُ; which is the dim. of
ظَلُوم: some read
أَظَلُومُ: and some,
أَسُلَيْمُ: [the verse is cited accord. to this last reading in the S:]
رَجُلًا is governed in the accus. case by
مُصَاب [as an inf. n.]: and
ظُلْمُ is the enunciative of
إِِنَّ. (L, TA.)
أَصَابَهُمُ
الدَّهْرُ
بِنُفُوسِهِمْ
وَأَمْوَالِهِمْ (assumed tropical:) means Time, or fate, afflicted
them by destruction, or extirpation, among themselves and their cattle,
or possessions. (M.) [In the K,
الإِِصَابةُ is expl. as signifying
الاِحْتِيَاجُ: but the right reading is evidently
الاِجْتِيَاحُ, as Ibr D has remarked in the margin of my copy of the TA; so
that
اصاب signifies (assumed tropical:) He destroyed, or extirpated;
agreeably with an explanation in the sentence next preceding above, from the M.]
مَنْ
يُرِدِ
ا@للّٰهُ
بِهِ
خَيْرًا
يُصِبْ
مِنْهُ, (assumed tropical:) occurring in a trad., means Him whom God
intendeth good He trieth with afflictions, that He may recompense him for
them. (TA.) And one says,
مَا

it, considered it, or held it, to be right; (M, Msb, TA;) namely, his
deed, (S, Msb,) or his opinion, (M, TA,) or his saying: (A:) Th says,
اِسْتَصَبْتُهُ is the regular form; but the Arabs say,
اِسْتَصْوَبْتُ

pressed, there issues what resembles milk, a drop of which sometimes spirts into
the eye, producing an effect like that of a flame of fire, and in some instances
weakening the sight: (M, TA:) or a certain kind of bitter tree; (As,
T, M, K, TA;) one of which is termed ↓
صَابَةٌ : (M, K: * [in the latter it is said that
صَابٌ is the pl. of
صَابَةٌ; but properly speaking, the former is a coll. gen. n., and the
latter is its n. un.:]) or the expressed juice of a kind of bitter tree:

صِيبَان is pl. of
صَائِب; or it may be an inf. n., like
حِرْمَان: and if one say ↓
صَيْبَان , with fet-h, the meaning is, what has poured forth of
