(S, TA:) Az says that
سَبَتَ in the first of these senses is not known in the language of the
Arabs: (TA:) [but J says that] the primary signification of
سُبَاتٌ is “ rest: ” and hence the former of these verbs signifies he
slept. (S.) ― -b2- And

انسبت
ذ [It became cut off, interrupted, put a stop to, or put an
end to, or it ceased: meanings indicated in this art. in the M and
TA. ― -b2- ] It became extended: (K:) or long and extended, together

يَوْمُ
السَّبْتِ, (S, Msb,) [The sabbath, or Saturday;] one of the
days of the week; (M, K;) the seventh of those days: (M:) so called
because the creation commenced on the first day of the week and continued to
[the end of] Friday, and on the
سبت there was no creation, the work having ceased thereon: or, as some say,
because the Jews ceased thereon from work, and the management of affairs: (M,
TA:) or because the days [of the week] end thereon: (S, TA:) Az says that he
errs who asserts it to have been so called because God commanded the Children of
Israel to rest thereon, and that God created the heavens and the earth in six
days, whereof the last was Friday, then rested, and the work ceased, and
therefore He named the seventh day
يوم
السبت: this, he says, is an error, because [he affirms that]
سَبَتَ as meaning “ he rested ” is not known in the language of the Arabs,
but signifies
قَطَعَ; and rest cannot be attributed to God, because He knows not fatigue,
and rest is only after fatigue and work: (TA:) the pl. [of pauc.] is
أَسْبُتٌ and [of mult.]
سُبُوتٌ: (S, M, Msb, K:) it has no dim. (Sb, S in art.
امس.) ― -b3-
سَبْتٌ also means A week; from the
سَبْت to the

الشَّمْسَ
سَبْتًا [And we saw not the sun for a week]: as when one says “
twenty autumns ” meaning “ twenty years: ” or it means in this instance a
space of time, whether short or long. (TA.) ― -b4- I. q.
بُرْهَةٌ [i. e. A space, or period, or a long space or
period,] (M, K, TA)
مِنَ
الدَّهْرِ [of time]: (TA:) so in the saying,
أَقَمْتُ
سَبْتًا [I remained, staid, dwelt, or abode, a space, or a
long space, of time]; as also ↓
سَبْتَةً and ↓
سَنْبَتًا and ↓
سَنْبَتَتًا . (M, K.) ― -b5- And i. q.
دَهْرٌ [meaning Time; or a long time; or a space, or
period, of time, whether long or short; &c.]; as also ↓
سُبَاتٌ . (S, M, K.) And [hence] ↓
اِبْنَا
سُبَاتٍ means (assumed tropical:) The night and the day: (S, M,
K:) Ibn Ahmar says, “
وَكُنَّا
وَهُمْ
كَابْنَىْ
سُبَاتٍ
تَفَرَّقَا
سِوًى
ثُمَّ
كَانَا
مُنْجِدًا
وَتَهَامِيَا
” [And we were, with them, like the night and the day that parted asunder
alike, then became one going towards Nejd and one going towards Tihámeh]:
(S, K:) such, they say, is the meaning: (S:) or, as IB says, on the authority of
Aboo-Jaafar Mohammad Ibn-Habeeb,
ابنا
سبات were two men, one of whom saw the other in a dream, and then one of
them awoke in Nejd, and the other in Tihámeh: or they were two brothers, one of
whom went to the east to see where the sun rose, and the other to the west to
see where it set. (L, TA.) -A2- Also A certain pace (S, M, K) of
camels: (S, K:) or a quick pace: (TA:) or i. q.
عَنَقٌ [q. v.]: (AA, S:) or a pace exceeding that termed
العَنَقُ. (M.) -A3- A swift, or an excellent, horse; (K, TA;)
that runs much. (TA.) ― -b2- A boy, or young man, of bad disposition,
or illnatured, and bold, or daring. (K) ― -b3- A man cunning,
i. e. possessing intelligence, or sagacity, or intelligence
mixed with craft and forecast; and excellent in judgment; or very cunning
&c.; (K, TA;) silent, or lowering his eyes, looking towards the
ground; (TA;) and ↓
سُبَاتٌ signifies the same. (K, TA.) ― -b4- A man who sleeps much;
(K;) i. e.
كَثِيرُ
السُّبَاتِ. (TA.) See also
مَسْبُوتٌ. -A4- See also what next follows.
سُبْتٌ A certain plant, resembling the
خِطْمِىّ [or marsh-mallow]; (Kr, M, K;) as also ↓
سَبْتٌ , (K [there expressly said to be with fet-h],) or ↓
سِبْتٌ : (M [so written in a copy of that work]:) said to be a
certain plant used for tanning. (MF.) See the next paragraph.
سِبْتٌ The hides, or skins, of oxen; (M, K;)
whether tanned or not tanned: so some say: (M:) or (so accord. to the M, in
the K and TA “ and, ” but the
و is omitted in the CK,) any tanned hide; (As, AA, M, K;) said to be
so called [because the tanning removes the hair,] from
السَّبْتُ, “ the act of shaving: ” (AA, TA:) or such. as is tanned with
قَرَظ [q. v.]: (M, K:) or only ox-hides tanned: so says AHn on the
authority of As and AZ: (TA:) or ox-hides tanned with
قَرَظ, (S, Mgh,) whereof are made [the sandals called] ↓
نِعَالٌ
سِبْتيَّةٌ : (S) these are hence thus called: (Mgh:) they are sandals
having no hair upon them: (M, Msb:) or sandals tanned with
قرَظ: (AA, TA:) accord. to Az, they are thus called because their hair has
been shaven off (سُبِتَ,
i. e.
حُلِقَ,) and removed by a wellknown process in tanning, (Mgh, * TA,) so that
they are soft; and they are of the sandals of people that lead a life of ease
and softness: (Mgh:) IAar says that they are thus called because of their having
become soft by the tanning: accord. to this, they should be called ↓
سَبْتِيَّة ; and so accord. to a saying of EdDáwoodee, that they are
called in relation to
سُوقُ
السَّبْتِ [“ the Market of the Sabbath ”]: it is also said that they are
called in relation to the ↓
سُبْت , with damm, which is a plant used for tanning therewith; so that
they should be called ↓
سُبْتِيَّة , unless the appellation be an instance of a rel. n.
deviating from its source of derivation [or unless this plant be also termed
سِبْتٌ, as it is accord. to a copy of the M]: (TA:) see
سُبْتٌ. It is related of the Prophet, that he saw a man walking among the
graves wearing his sandals, and said,
يَا
صَاحِبَ
السِّبْتَينِ
اِخْلَعْ
سِبْتَيْكَ [meaning (tropical:) O wearer of the pair of sandals of
سِبْت, pull off thy pair of sandals of
سِبْت]: (S, * TA:) and accord. to the A, they are thus termed tropically: it
is like the saying “ Such a one wears wool, and cotton, and silk; ” meaning “
garments made thereof; ” as is said in the Nh: but, as some relate it, what he
said was, ↓
يَا
صَاحِبَ
السِّبْتِيَّيْنِ , the last of these words being a rel. n.; and thus it
is found in the handwriting of Az, in his book. (TA.)
سِبِتٌّ
ذ , (M, L, K,) like
فِلِزٌّ, (TA,) [in a copy of the M erroneously written
سِبْت,] A certain plant; [anethum graveolens, or dill, of
the common garden-species;] an arabicized word, from [the Pers.]
شِبِتّ [or
شِبِتْ]: (AHn, M, L:) or i. q.
شِبِتٌّ; both words arabicized from
شِوِذْ [or
شِوِدْ]: (K:) asserted by some to be the same as
سَنُّوتٌ [q. v.]: (M, L:) Az says that
شِبِتٌّ, the name of a well-known herb, or leguminous plant,
is an arabicized word; that he had heard the people of El-Bahreyn call it
سِبِتٌّ, with the unpointed
س, and with
ت; that it is originally, in Pers.,
شِوِذْ; and that it has another dial. var., namely,
سبط [i. e.
سِبِطٌّ]. (El-Jawáleekee, TA.)
سَبْتَةٌ : see
سَبْتٌ, in the middle of the paragraph. -A2- Also Goats,
collectively. (K.)
سَبْتَآءُ
ذ A [desert such as is termed]
صَحْرَآء: (AZ, K:) or
أَرْضٌ
سَبْتَآءُ is like
صَحْرَآءُ: or a land in which are no trees: (M:) and i. q. ↓
مَسْبُوتَةٌ [i. e. a bare land; as though shorn of its herbage]:
(TA:) pl.
سَبَاتِىُّ. (M.) ― -b2- Also, [in like manner] a fem. epithet, Having
spreading, or expanded, ears, whether long or short. (K.)
سَبْتِىٌّ One who fasts alone on the
سَبْت [i. e. sabbath, or Saturday]: thus in the saying
mentioned by Th, on the authority of IAar,
لَا
تَكُ
سَبْتِيًّا [Be not thou one who fasts &c.]. (M.)
نِعَالٌ
سِبْتِيَّةٌ , and
سَبْتِيَّةٌ, and
سُبْتِيَّةٌ; and the dual. of
سِبْتِىٌّ, applied to a pair of sandals: see
سِبْتٌ, in four places.
سِبْتَانٌ , with kesr, Foolish, stupid, or of little
sense; (K, TA;) confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his
right course; without understanding. (TA.)
ذ primarily signifies Rest [like
سَبْتٌ]: (S, Msb:) and hence, sleep: (S, K:) or heavy sleep: (Msb:)
or sleep that is hardly perceptible (خَفِىّ,
M, K, [in some copies of the K, as mentioned by Freytag,
خَفِيف, i. e. light,]), like a swoon: (M:) or the
commencement of sleep in the head [and its continuance] until it
reaches the heart: (Th, M, K:) or the sleep of one who is sick; i. e.
light sleep: (TA:) and ↓
سَبْتٌ signifies the same as
سُبَاتٌ. (T, TA.) Hence, in the Kur [lxxviii. 9, and in like manner the word
is used in xxv. 49],
وَجَعَلْنَا
نَوْمَكُمْ
سُبَاتًا; (S;) i. e.
قَطْعًا; as though a man, when he slept, were cut off from [the rest of]
mankind: (IAar, TA:) or
سبات is when one is cut off, or ceases, from motion, while the soul still
remains in the body; i. e., the text means, And we have made your sleep to be
rest unto you: (Zj, TA:) or we have made your sleep to be a cutting off
from sensation and motion, for rest to the animal forces, and for causing their
weariness to cease: or, to be death: (Bd:) or, to be rest unto
your bodies by the interruption of labour, or work. (Jel.) -A2- See
also
سَبْتٌ, latter half, in three places.
سَبُوتٌ A she-camel that goes the pace termed
سَبْتٌ: or constantly going the pace termed
عَنَقٌ. (M.)
سَبَنْتًى , (S, M, K,) as also
سَبَنْدًى, (S,) Bold, or daring; (S, M, K;) as an epithet
applied to anything [i. e. man or brute]: the
ى is added to render it quasi-coordinate to the class of quinqueliteral-radical
words, not to denote the fem. gender, for it receives
ة as a termination [to denote the fem.], becoming
سَبَنْتَاةٌ; (S;) and has tenween. (TA.) A poet applies the fem. epithet to
a she-camel. (S.) ― -b2- Also The leopard; (S, M, K;) so too with
ة; (AHeyth, L in art.
سبد;) and so
سَبَنْدًى: probably thus called because of his boldness, or daringness: (S:)
or, as some ay, the lion: fem. with
ة: or the fem, signifies a bold, or daring, lioness: or a
she-camel of bold, or daring, breast; but this last is not of valid
authority: (M:) and a beast of prey [absolutely]: (L in art.
سيد:) pl.
سَبَانِتُ; (K, TA;) and some of the Arabs make
سَبَاتِى [or rather
سَبَاتٍ] to be its pl. (TA.) ― -b3- The fem. also, applied to a woman,
signifies Sharp in tongue; or clamorous; or clamorous and
foul-tongued; or long-tongued and vehemently clamorous. (TA.)

observance of the

مَسْبُوتٌ Affected with [the kind, or degree,
or semblance, of sleep termed]
سُبَات [q. v.]: (IAar, M:) or affected with a swoon: and, applied to
a sick man, prostrated like him who is sleeping, generally closing his eyes:
(S:) or confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course:
(Msb:) and ↓
سَبْتٌ signifies the same as
مَسْبُوتٌ; as in the saying, cited by As, “
يُصْبِحُ
مَخْمُورًا
وَيُمْسِى
سَبْتَا
” [He is in the morning affected with the remains of intoxication, and he is
in the evening affected with sleep, or heavy sleep, &c.]. (T, TA.) ―
