رَكَبٌ The
عَانَة: (ISk, Msb, K:) or the place of growth of the
عَانَة, (S, K,) or of the hair of the
عَانَة: (Mgh:) [i. e. it signifies the pubes; either as meaning the
hair of the mons Veneris, or the mons Veneris itself: generally
the latter; and this is often meant by the term
عانة alone:] or the part that slopes down from the belly, and is beneath
the
ثُنَّة [q. v.] and above the pudendum: in all these senses said by Lh
to be masc.: (TA:) or the pudendum (Az, Msb, K) itself: (TA:) or
the external portion thereof: (K:) or the
رَكَبَانِ are the roots of the two thighs, upon which is the flesh of the
pudendum, (K, TA,) or upon which are the two portions of flesh of the
pudendum: (TA:) the
ركب is masc.: (Msb:) it is common to the man and the woman, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,
*) accord. to Fr: (S, Msb:) or peculiar to the woman, (S, Mgh, K,) accord. to Kh:
(S:) ElFarezdak makes it plainly common to both, saying, “
حِينَ
ا@لتَقَى
الرَّكَبُ
المَحْلُوقُ
بِالرَّكَبِ
” [When the shaven pubes met the pubes]: (TA: [and a similar ex. is given
in the S and Msb, as cited by Fr:]) the pl. is
أَرْكَابٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and
أَرَاكِيبُ; (K;) the latter being pl. of the former; but in some copies of
the K
أَرَاكِبُ, like

رُكْبَة [or knee]. (TA.)
رَكْبَةٌ A single ride, or act of riding: pl.
رَكَبَاتٌ. (IAth, L.) ― -b2- [Hence,] one says,
هُوَ
يَمْشِى
الرَّكْبَةَ (tropical:) [i. e.
يَرْكَبُ
رَأْسَهُ He goes at random, heedlessly, or in a headlong manner,
&c., (see 1,)] and
هُمْ
يَمْشُونَ
الرَّكَبَاتِ (tropical:) [They go at random, &c.]. (A. [The meaning
is there indicated by the context, and is shown by what here follows.])
Respecting the phrase
تمْشُونَ
الرَّكَبَاتِ, occurring in a trad., meaning
تَرْكَبُونَ
رُؤُوسَكُمْ (assumed tropical:) [Ye go at random, &c.], in that
which is false, wrong, or vain, and in factions, or seditions,
or the like, following one another without consideration, IAth says that
رَكْبَةٌ [properly] signifies as explained above in the first sentence of
this paragraph, and that the pl.
الركبات is here governed in the accus. case by a verb understood, and [with
that verb] is a denotative of state relating to the agent in
تمشون: it supplies the place of that verb, which it does not require to be
expressed; and the implied meaning is
تَمْشُونَ
تَرْكَبُونَ
الرَّكَبَاتِ. (L.)
رُكْبَةٌ a word of well-known meaning, (S, Msb,) [The knee; i. e., in a
man,] the joint between the lower parts of the thigh and the upper parts of
the shank: (A, K:) or [in a quadruped,] the joint between the metacarpus
and the radius (مَوْصِلُ
الوَظِيفِ
وَالذِّرَاعِ): this is the right explanation: in the K,
مَوْضِع is erroneously put for
مَوْصِل: [this explanation is evidently given accord. to the terms employed
in the anatomy of quadrupeds as compared to human beings: in that which next
follows, there is certainly an omission, which I have endeavoured to supply:] or
the
رُكْبَتَانِ of the fore legs of the camel are the two joints that [project
forwards, in like manner as do, in the hind legs, those that] are next
the belly [meaning the stifle-joints] when he lies down upon his
breast with folded legs: the two joints that project behind [in the hind
legs, namely, the hocks,] are called the
عُرْقُوبَانِ: in every quadruped, the
ركبتان are in the fore legs, and the
عرقوبان are in the hind legs: and the
عرقوب is what is called
مَوْصِلُ
الوَظِيفِ [i. e. the upper joint of the metatarsus]: (TA:) or the
ركبة is the
مِرْفَق [which in a man is the elbow, but here seems to mean the lower
joint] of the
ذِرَاع [or radius] of anything [i. e. of any beast]: (K:) [from its
being said in the S and Msb that the
رُكْبَة is “ well known, ” I conclude that there is no real discrepancy in
the foregoing explanations: it is perhaps needless to add that the term
رُكْبَة is now universally applied to the knee of a man and to what
we commonly call the knee of a horse and the like:] the pl. is
رُكَبٌ, (S, Msb, K,) i. e. the pl. of mult., and the pl. of pauc. is
رُكْبَاتٌ and
رُكَبَاتٌ and
رُكُبَاتٌ. (S.) Lh mentions the phrase
بَعِيرٌ
مُسْتَوْقِحُ
الرُّكَبِ [meaning A hardkneed camel]; as though the term
رُكْبَةٌ were applied to each part, and the pl. used accord. to this
application. (TA.) ― -b2- One says [of an agitating affair or event],
أَمْرٌ
اصْطَكَّتْ
فِيهِ
الرُّكَبُ
وَحَكَّتْ
فِيهِ
الرُّكْبَةُ
الرُّكَبَةَ (tropical:) [An affair, or event, in which the knees
knocked together, and in which the knee rubbed the knee]. (A.) ― -b3- And of
one who has the mark of prostration in prayer on his forehead, between his eyes,
(L,)
بَيْنَ
عَيْنَيْهِ
مِثْلُ
رُكْبَةِ
العَنْزِ [Between his eyes is the like of the knee of the she-goat].
(A, * L.) And of any two things that are alike, or correspondent,
هُمَا
كَرُكْبَتَى
العَنْزِ [They are like the two knees of the she-goat]; because her
two knees fall together upon the ground when she lies down. (L.) ― -b4- And it
is said in a prov.,
شَرُّ
النَّاسِ
مَنْ
مِلْحُهُ
عَلَى
رُكعبَتِهِ [The worst of men is he whose fat is upon his knee]:
applied to him who is quickly angered; and to the perfidious: (Meyd, TA:) the
phrase
مِلْحُهُ
عَلَى
رُكْبَتِهِ is also used as meaning The smallest thing makes him angry:
(TA:) and a poet says, “
لَا
تَلُمْهَا
إِِنَّهَا
مِنْ
عُصْبَةٍ
مِلْحُهَا
مَوْضُوعَةٌ
فَوْقَ
الرُّكَبْ
” [Blame her not; for she is of a set of people whose fat is placed above the
knees: perhaps meaning, for she is but a woman; as women are generally fat
in the part above the knee]: (TA:) or
مِنْ
نِسْوَةٍ [in the place of
مِنْ
عُصْبَةٍ], meaning of women whose object of anxiety, or care, is
fatness and fat: (Meyd, TA:) so that the prov. seems to mean that the
worst of men is he who has not such intelligence as bids him to do that which is
praiseworthy, but only bids him to do that in which is inconstancy and levity,
and an inclining to the dispositions of women, to the love of fatness and fat. (Meyd.)

on a journey, or travellers upon camels, exclusively of other beasts,
(S,) but less in number than the company called
رَكْبٌ: (S, K:) [and probably also a company of riders upon any beasts,
but less than what is called
رَكْبٌ:] accord. to MF, it is a pl. of

رِكَابٌ and
عِيرٌ are applied to camels that go forth for corn (طَعَام)
to be brought back upon them, both when they go forth and after they have
come back: and the former term is applied also to camels upon which
people journey to Mekkeh, on which
مَحَامِل are borne: and hired [or other] camels that
carry the goods and corn of merchants: but camels are not called
عير, though bearing corn, [unless] if hired: [I insert the words “ or other
” and “ unless ” because it is further said,]
عير are not those that bring corn for their owners; but these are called
رِكَابٌ: (L, TA:) the pl. is
رُكُبٌ, (S, K,) accord. to A'Obeyd, (TA,) and
رِكَابَاتٌ and
رَكَائِبُ; (K;) or, accord. to IAar,

رَكُوبٌ , signifying any beast on which one rides, [an epithet]
of the measure
فَعُولٌ in the sense of the measure
مَفْعُولٌ; (TA;) but called by ISd a subst.; (TA voce

masters, them;] by his knowledge, and repeated experience, and good
judgment. (K and TA in art.
طلع.)
عَلاهُ
الرُّكَّابُ (tropical:) The nightmare, or incubus, came upon him.
(A.)
رَكَّابَةٌ
ذ : see the latter part of the next paragraph.
رَاكِبٌ
ذ Riding; or a rider: (Mgh, Msb, K:) or properly only a
rider upon a camel: (ISk, S, K:) or the latter is its meaning when it is not
used as a prefixed noun, as explained below; and is said to be the original
signification: IB says that it may signify a rider upon a camel, ass,
horse, or mule, when used as a prefixed noun; as when you say
رِاكِبُ
جَمَلٍ and
رَاكِبُ
حِمَارٍ &c.: (L:) accord. to ISk, you term a rider upon an ass
فَارِسٌ
عَلَى
حِمَارٍ, (S, TA,) and a rider upon a mule
فَارِسٌ
عَلَى
بَغْلٍ; (TA;) but 'Omarah says, I do not call the owner or rider of the ass
فارس, but
حَمَّارٌ; and the reason of his saying so is manifest, for
فارس is an epithet of the measure
فَاعِلٌ from
الفَرَسُ “ the horse, ” meaning “ an owner, or a rider, of the horse: ” (S,
TA:) the pl. is
رُكَّابٌ (S, K) and
رُكْبَانٌ (S, * Mgh, Msb, K) and
رُكُوبٌ (Mgh, K) and
رِكَبَةٌ, (K,) or this last is a mistake for
رَكَبَةٌ [q. v.], (MF, TA,) and ↓
رَكْبٌ , (Akh, Msb, K, TA,) as some say; (TA;) or this last is a
quasi-pl. n., (K, TA,) not a broken pl. of
رَاكِبٌ; (TA;) and signifies riders upon camels; (K;) or owners of
camels on a journey, or travellers upon camels; (S;) consisting of
ten or more: (S, K:) and sometimes it signifies riders upon
horses: (IB, K:) or riders upon horses and camels: (IB, L, TA:) or
a company of riders upon horses; or upon horses and camels: (TA:)
[or, accord. to Kh, riders upon any beasts: (De Sacy's Anthol. Gram. Ar.
p. 54 of the Arabic text:)] in the Kur viii. 43,
الرَّكْبُ may signify the riders upon horses, or the riders upon
camels, or the army composed of both these: (TA:) the pl. of
رَكْبٌ is
أَرْكُبٌ, (S, K,) [a pl. of pauc.,] and
رُكُوبٌ. (K.) Accord. to IB, you do not say
إِِبِلٍ ↓
رَكْبُ nor
رُكْبَانُ
إِِبِلٍ: but it is said that
رُكَّابُ
إِِبِلٍ and
رُكَّابُ
خَيْلٍ &c. are allowable. (L.) An instance of
رُكْبَان as distinguished from
فُرْسَان occurs in a verse cited as one of the exs. of the preposition
بِ. (TA.) ↓
رُكَيْبٌ [properly signifying A small company of riders upon camels,
&c.,] occurs as meaning collectors of the poorrates: it is the dim. of ↓
رَكْبٌ ; and shows that this latter is not a pl. [properly speaking] of
رَاكِبٌ; for, were it so, the word used as its dim. would be
رُوَيْكِبُونَ. (TA.) [See also
رَكَبَةٌ, and
أُرْكُوبٌ.] ― -b2- [Also A person on board of a ship or boat: pl.
رُكَّابٌ.] You say
رُكَّابُ
السَّفِينَةِ (S, TA) The persons on board of the ship, or boat:
and
رُكَّابُ
المَآءِ the voyagers upon the water: and Ibn-Ahmar has used in this
sense the pl.
رُكْبَانٌ; but it is said that this is not allowable; nor is
أُرْكُوبٌ; nor
رَكْبٌ. (TA.) ― -b3- Also, and ↓
رَاكُوبٌ , (assumed tropical:) A shoot germinating upon the trunk of
a palm-tree, not having any root in the ground: (S:) or a shoot on the
upper part of a palm-tree, hanging down, but not reaching the ground; and so
↓
رَاكِبَةٌ and ↓
رَاكُوبَةٌ and ↓
رَكَّابَةٌ : (K:) or, as some say, the last of these words is not thus
applied, but means a woman “ who rides much: ” AHn, however, says that it
signifies a palm-shoot, or the like thereof, growing forth at the top
of the trunk of a palm-tree, and, in some instances, bearing with its mother;
but when it is cut off, it is better for the mother: and
رَاكِبٌ is also explained in the L as meaning small palm-trees that grow
forth at the lower parts of large palmtrees: (TA:) or it means a shoot of
a palm-tree not cut off from its mother: (Ham p. 66:) accord. to As, when a
palm-shoot grows from the trunk, and does not adhere to the ground, it forms a
vile kind of palm-tree; and the Arabs call it
رَاكِبٌ and ↓
رَاكُوبٌ : the pl. of this last [and of ↓
رَاكُوبَةٌ ] is
رَوَاكِيبُ. (TA.) ― -b4-
رُكْبَانُ
السُّنْبُلِ means (tropical:) What first appear, or grow forth,
from the
قُنْبُع, (A, K, TA,) i. e. the envelope of the grain, (TA,) of the
ear of wheat. (K, TA.) ― -b5-
رَاكِبٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The head [or summit]
of a mountain (جَبَل),
as in [most of] the copies of the K; in some of which is found
حَبْل [or rope]. (TA.)
رَاكِبَةٌ
ذ : see the next preceding paragraph. ― -b2- Also sing. of
رَوَاكِبُ (TA) which signifies (tropical:) Streaks [or layers]
of fat, (A, K, TA,) overlying one another, (K, TA,) in the fore
part of a camel's hump: those in the hinder part are called
رَوَادِفُ, (A, K, TA,) of which the sing. is
رَادِفَةٌ. (TA.)
رَاكُوبٌ
ذ and
رَاكُوبَةٌ: see
رَاكِبٌ, latter part, in four places.
أَرْكَبُ
ذ Large in the
رُكْبَة [or knee]. (S, K.) ― -b2- A camel having one of his knees
larger than the other. (S, K.)
أُرْكُوبٌ
ذ A company of riders upon camels, (K,) or of owners of camels
on a journey, or of travellers upon camels, exclusively of other
beasts, (S,) but more in number than the company called
رَكْبٌ: (S, K:) pl.
أَرَاكِيبُ. (TA.) [See also
رَكَبَةٌ.]
مَرْكَبٌ an inf. n. of
رَكِبَ. (A, K, TA.) ― -b2- And also a noun of place [properly signifying
A place of riding, &c.]. (TA.) [Hence, Anything upon which one rides;
and upon, or in, which one is borne or carried:] one of
the
مَرَاكِب of the land; and [more commonly] of the sea: (S, K:)
[i. e.] a beast [on which one rides]; (A, TA;) and a vessel,
i. e. a ship or boat: (A, Mgh, Msb, TA:) a saddle; and
any kind of vehicle borne by a camel or other beast: (the lexicons passim:)
مَرَاكِبُ is the pl. (Mgh, Msb.) You say,
نِعْمَ
المَرْكَبُ
الدَّابَّةُ [Excellent, or most excellent, is the thing upon which
one rides, the beast]. (A.) And
جَآءَتْ
مَرَاكِبُ
اليَمَنِ The vessels, or the ships or boats, of El-Yemen
came. (A.) ― -b3- [And hence
المَرْكَبُ as the name of (assumed tropical:) The principal star (a)
of Pegasus; because in the place of the saddle.]
مُرْكِبٌ A colt that has become fit for being ridden. (TA.) And
دَابَّةٌ
مُرْكِبَةٌ A beast that has attained the age at which one may ride him
during a warring and plundering expedition. (TA.)
مُرَكَّبٌ A man to whom a horse is lent for a portion of the spoil that he

رَكِيبٌ ; and so the arrowhead [fixed] in the shaft: (S:) or
رَكِيبٌ signifies, (K, TA,) as a subst., (TA,) a thing set (مُرَكَّبٌ)
in a thing, such as a ring-stone in the bezel, or collet, of the
signet-ring. (K, * TA.) -A2- Also (tropical:) Origin: and place of
