عَمَلَ , inf. n.
عَمَلٌ, (S, O, Msb, K,)
He worked, or wrought; laboured;
served, or did service: he did, acted, or performed: (K, TA:)
[generally, he did, &c., with a sort of difficulty, or with
intention; but sometimes said of an inanimate thing: (see
عَمَلٌ, below:)]
he did, or he made, wrought, manufactured,
or constructed, a thing. (Msb. [See, again,

عَمِلَ is the only trans. verb of its measure having the inf. n. of
the measure
فَعَلٌ, except
هَبِلَت, said of a mother, inf. n.
هَبَلٌ; other similar verbs having the inf. n. of the measure
فَعْلٌ; as

اللُّقْمَةَ, inf. n.
سَرْطٌ; and
بَلِعْتُهُ, inf. n.
بَلْعٌ. (TA. [But see arts.
سرط and
بلع; with respect to the former of which I must here state that,
since it was printed, I have found an authority for
سَرْطٌ as inf. n. of
سَرِطَ in a copy of the S; though in the K it is said to be
مُحَرَّكَة, and accord. to the Msb it is like
تَعَبٌ.]) You say,
عَمِلْتُ
عَلَى
الصَّدَقَةِ I officiated in the collecting of the poor-rate. (Msb.)
[And

(K in art.
شيط.) [And
عَمِلَ
فِيهِ It acted upon him, or it: and, said of a sword
&c., it had effect, or made an impression, upon him, or it.]
― -b2- [Hence,]
عَمِلَ
فِيهِ signifies [also (assumed tropical:) It governed it
syntactically; or caused it to be
مَرْفُوع or
مَنْصُوب or
مَجْرُور &c.; i. e.] it produced in it a certain species of
syntactical desinence. (K.) ― -b3- And
عَمِلَ
البَرْقُ The lightning was continual. (K.) And

[the beast]
البُرَاق, (O, * TA,) She went quickly, or swiftly; (O,
K, TA;) because she that does thus puts her ears in motion by reason of the
vehemence of the pace. (TA.) And
عَمِلَت [alone] said of a she-camel, signifies [the same: or] She
was, or became, brisk, light, active, or quick. (K.) ― -b4-

عَلَى

(S and Msb in art.
جل. See also a similar ex. voce

عَمَلٌ [mentioned in the beginning of this art. as an inf. n.] is
syn. with
مَِهْنَةٌ and
فِعْلٌ: (K:) [accordingly, when used as a simple subst., it may be
rendered Work, labour, or service: and a deed, or an
action:] or it has a more particular meaning than
فِعْلٌ; for it is a
فِعْل [or deed] with a sort of difficulty; and
therefore it is not attributed to God: or, accord. to Er-Rághib, it is any
فِعْل [i. e. deed or action] that proceeds from an
animate being by his intention; and thus it has a more particular meaning
than
فِعْلٌ; for the
فعل is sometimes attributed to animate beings from which it proceeds
without intention; and sometimes to inanimate things, to which the
عَمَل is seldom attributed; and this is not used in relation to
[irrational] animals except [as implied] in the phrases
إِِبِلٌ
عَوَامِلُ and
بَقَرٌ
عَوَامِلُ: or, accord. to MF, the
عَمَل is a motion of the whole, or of a portion, of the
body; and sometimes, of the mind; so that it is the utterance of a
saying, as well as the doing a deed with the member, or limb, with
which things are gained or earned; though most readily understood as
applied particularly to the latter; and some apply it particularly to
that which is not a saying: it is also said that a saying is not termed
عَمَلٌ in the common conventional language: and the truth is said to
be, that it is not included in the terms
عَمَلٌ and
فِعْلٌ otherwise than tropically: (TA:) [see also
عَمِلَةٌ:] the pl. of
عَمَلٌ [used as a simple subst.] is
أَعْمَالٌ. (K.) In the following saying, of a woman dandling her
child, (S,) or of Keys Ibn-Ásim, (O, TA,) dandling his child Hakeem, (TA,) “
أَشْبِهْ
أَبَا
أُمِّكَ
أَوْ
أَشْبِهْ
عَمَلْ
” the last word is a proper name of a man: (S, O, TA:) or, accord. to
Aboo-Zekereeyŕ, [the meaning is, Share thou in the qualities of the father of
thy mother, or share thou in the qualities of my course of action;
for he says that] by
عَمَلْ is here meant
عَمَلِى. (TA.)
اِبْنُ
عَمَلِى means He who does my work, or the like of what I
do. (TA in art.
بنى.) And [hence,]
فُلَانٌ
ابْنُ
عَمَلٍ Such a one is strong. (TA.) And
بَنُو
عَمَلٍ Those who journey on foot. (O, K, * TA.) [And
عَمَلُ
النَّخْلِ, occurring in the T, voce
ضَيْعَةٌ, means The culture of palm-trees: like as
عَمَلُ
الأرْضِ means agriculture]. ― -b2- And
عَمَلٌ signifies also The striving, labouring, or toiling,
in work; or the holding on, or continuing, in work: so in the
saying of El- Kutámee “
فَقَدْ
يَهُونُ
عَلَى
المُسْتَنْجِحِ
العَمَلُ
” [For verily the striving, &c., in work is a light matter to him who
seeks success]. (TA.) ― -b3- [Also An office of administration; and
particularly the office of governor of a province; and the office of
collector of the poor-rates, and the like: and an agency of any
kind; the management of the affairs and property of another; an
employment. ― -b4- Also A province; or territory under a governor
appointed by a sovereign. Pl. in this and other senses as above.]

[the mode of] gain. (TA.) ― -b2- See also
عَمِلَةٌ. ― -b3- And see
عُمَالَةٌ. -A2- Also The internal state, or condition, of a
man, in relation to evil. (K.)
عَمِلَةٌ
ذ , with kesr to the
م, is syn. with
عَمَلٌ [as signifying A deed, or an action]: (O, K:) so
in the saying of a woman of the Arabs,
مَا
كَانَ
لِى
عَمِلَةٌ
إِِلَّا
فَسَادُكُمْ [There was no deed, or action, for me, except
the corrupting of you]. (O.) ― -b2- And A thing that is done, or
performed; or that is made; (مَا
