جبو and جبى  [The words belonging to the former of these two arts. cannot well be classed by themselves, being intimately connected with those of the latter, which are the more numerous and common, and from which they are generally easily distinguishable.] 1 جَبَى جب جبى جبي جبيي , (K,) first pers. جَبَيْتُ, (Ks, S, Er-Rághib,) aor. 1َ2ِ3َ ; (K;) and جَبَى, aor. 1َ2َ3َ , (K,) said by MF to be unknown, and also, because neither the second nor the third radical is a faucial letter, unreasonable, but mentioned by Sb, though held by him to be of weak authority, and mentioned also by IAar, as extr., like أَبَى, aor. يَأْبَى; (TA;) and جَبَا, (TA,) first pers. جَبَوْتُ, (Ks, S, TA,) aor. 1َ2ُ3َ ; (TA;) inf. n. [of the first and second] جَبْىٌ (Sh, K) and [probably of the last only] جَبًا and جِبًا and جُبًا and [of the last, but whether in the first or the second of the senses here following is not shown,] جِبْوَةٌ; (K; [or this last has a different application, explained below;]) He collected water in a trough or tank for beasts &c. [Ks, S, K, Er-Rághib.) ― -b2- And (hence, metaphorically, Er-Rághib, TA) the first of these verbs, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, Er-Rághib,) and the second, (K,) and the third; (S, Msb, TA;) inf. n. (of the first, S, Msb) جِبَايَةٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K, Er-Rághib) and (of the last, S, Msb) جِبَاوَةٌ (S, Msb, K) and جَبْوٌ (TA) [and probably جِبْوَةٌ also, which see above]; (tropical:) He collected the [tax called] خَرَاج, (S, Mgh, Msb, K, Er-Rághib,) and [other] property. (Msb, TA.) The last of these verbs is said in the S to be originally with ', though pronounced without '; but IB says that this is not the case, and that it has not been heard with '. (TA.) You say also, جَبَاهُ القَوْمَ (assumed tropical:) [He collected it from the people, or company of men]; (M, K, * TA;) and جَبَى مِنْهُمْ (assumed tropical:) [He collected from them]. (M, K, TA.) ― -b3- Also جَبَا [or جَبَى], (TA,) first pers. جَبَيْتُ, (Zj, TA,) (assumed tropical:) He appropriated a thing purely to himself, exclusively of any partner; chose it, or took it in preference, for himself. (Zj, TA.) And hence, (Zj, TA,) ↓ اجتباهُ (assumed tropical:) He chose it, or selected it, (Zj, S, K) لِنَفْسِهِ for himself. (TA.) -A2- And جَبَى and جَبَا, [originally جَبَأَ,] He returned, receded, retreated, or went back. (TA.)

2 جبّى جب جبى جبي جبيي , inf. n. تَجْبِيَةٌ, He placed his hands upon his knees, (K, TA,) in prayer; (TA;) or upon the ground: or he fell prostrate; or fell upon his face: (K:) or he lowered his body and his hands, and raised his buttocks: (Ham p. 801:) [or] تجبية signifies a man's standing [with the hands upon the knees] in the manner of the رَاكِع: (S, K: *) accord. to A'Obeyd, what is thus termed is of two kinds: one is the placing the hands upon the knees, while standing: the other, the prostrating oneself, or falling upon the face, lying down; which is سُجُودٌ: (S:) or the bending down, and placing the hands upon the knees; because it is a bringing-together of the limbs. (Mgh.) -A2- جبّاهُ, inf. n. as above, meaning He gave to him, is vulgar. (TA.)

4 اجبى أجبى أجبي اجبى اجبي جبى in the trad. مَنْ أَجْبَى فَقَدْ أَرْبَى is originally أَجْبَأَ [q. v.]: (S:) accord. to IAth, it is a corruption of the relater, or the ' is suppressed to assimilate the verb to اربى (TA.) The inf. n., إِِجْبَآءٌ, is variously explained, as follows: (TA:) The selling seed-produce before it shows itself to be in a good state: (A'Obeyd, Th, S, K:) and a man's hiding his camels from the collector of the poor-rate: (IAar, A'Obeyd, K:) and i. q. عِينَةٌ; i. e. the selling to a man a commodity for a certain price to be paid at a certain period, then buying it of him with ready money for a less price than that for which it was sold. (TA.)

(TA.) ― -b2- (assumed tropical:) The collecting in the way of choice, or selection.

(Er-Rághib, TA.) ― -b5- Also اجتباهُ, (assumed tropical:) He forged it: and he extemporized it. (TA.) Hence, in the Kur [vii. 202], قَالُوا لَوْلَا اجْتَبَيْتَهَا (assumed tropical:) They say, Wherefore hast thou not forged it, (Fr, TA,) or produced it, (Th, TA,) or invented it, (Jel,) or put it together by forgery, (Bd,) of thyself? (Fr, Th, Bd, Jel, TA:) or wherefore hast thou not sought it, or demanded it, of God? (Bd.) جَبًا جب جبا , or جَبًى, (as in different copies of the K,) written with ا and with ى, (TA,) The camel-waterer's going in advance of the camels a day before their coming to the water, and collecting for them water in the drinking-trough, and then bringing them to it (IAar, K, TA) on the morrow. (IAar, TA.) [App. an inf. n., of which, in this sense, the verb is not mentioned.] So in the verse, “ بِالرَّيْثِ مَا أَرْوَيْتُهَا لَا بِالعَجَلْ
وَبِالجَبَا أَرْوَيْتُهَا لَا بِالقَبَلْ
” [Slowly I satisfied their thirst; not hastily: and by going in advance of them a day, and collecting for them water in the trough, and bringing them to it on the morrow, I satisfied their thirst; not by pouring the water into the trough while they were drinking, without having prepared any for them beforehand]. (IAar, TA.) -A2- Also the former, Water collected [in a trough]; and so ↓ جُبْوَةٌ , with damm. (TA. [See جِبًا.]) ― -b2- A wateringtrough (K, TA) in which water is collected: (TA:) or the station of the drawer of water, upon the [upper part of the] casing.

The earth that is around a well, that is seen from afar; (S;) originally جَبَأٌ: (TA:) what is around a well: (K:) and what is around a wateringtrough: (TA:) pl. أَجْبَآءٌ. (K.) -A3- جَبَا meaning A gift without compensation is a vulgar word. (TA.) جِبًا جب جبا Water collected (T, S, K) in a trough, (T, K,) being drawn from a well, (T, TA,) for camels; (S;) [like جَبًا;] as also ↓ جِبْوَةٌ , (K, TA, and so in a copy of the S, but omitted in the CK,) or ↓ جَبْوَةٌ , (so in two copies of the S,) and ↓ جُبْوَةٌ also, (so in a copy of the S, [see جَبًا,]) and ↓ جَبَاوَةٌ , (K, TA, and so in a copy of the S,) and ↓ جَبَاوَةٌ , (K, TA, and so in another copy of the S, but omitted in the CK,) and ↓ جِبَآءَةٌ : (TA as from the K, but not in the CK: [perhaps a mistranscription for ↓ جِبَايَةٌ :]) but accord. to IAmb, جِبًا is pl. of ↓ جِبْيَةٌ . (TA.) جَبْوَةٌ جب جبى جبوه جبوة ; see جِبًا. جُبْوَةٌ جب جبى جبوه جبوة : see جَبًا and جِبًا. جِبْوَةٌ جب جبى جبوه جبوة : see جِبًا. -A2- Also (assumed tropical:) A mode, or manner, of collecting the [tax called] خَرَاج; and so ↓ جِبْيَةٌ , which Lh calls an inf. n.
