غَشِيَهُ , aor.
يَغْشَى, inf. n.
غَشَاوَةٌ,
It covered,
or
concealed, him, or
it; (TA;) as also ↓
تغشّاهُ.
(MA.) And one says,
غَشَانِى اللَّيْلُ, i. e.
غَشِيَنِى
[
The night covered me, or
concealed me: or the
meaning may be that which next follows]. (JK.)
―
2-b2-
غَشِيَهُ, (K, TA,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (TA,)
is said of an event (
أَمْرٌ), [and of heat, (S and K
in art.
دغم,) and of cold, (K in that art.,) and of
an affection of the mind or body, and of various
things, sometimes in like manner of a man, and
of a company of men,] in a similar sense; and so
↓
تغشّاهُ; (K, TA;) both signifying
It came upon,
[or
invaded, so as to surprise, and
so as to over-whelm, properly meaning]
as a thing that covered,
him, or
it. (K, * TA.) Hence, in the Kur [liii.
16],
إِذْ يَغْشَى ٱلسِّدْرَةَ مَا يَغْشَى [
When there was
coming upon the lote-tree so as to cover it, or
overspread it, what was so coming]. (TA.) And in
the same [xx. 81],
فَغَشِيَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْيَمِّ مَا غَشِيَهُمْ [
And
there came upon them so as to overwhelm them, of
the sea, what so came upon them]. (TA.) And
in the same [viii. 11],
إِذْ يَغْشَاكُمُ [followed by
ٱالنُّعَاسُ, i. e.
When it (drowsiness)
was coming
upon you, or
overcoming you]; accord. to one
reading; other readings being
يُغْشِيكُمُ and
يُغَشِّيكُمُ [followed by
ٱلنُّعَاسَ]. (TA.) See also
غَاشِيَةٌ, in three places. ―
2-b3- [A somewhat similar
signification of
غَشِيَهُ will be found below.] ―
2-b4-
One says of the night,
يَغْشَى بِظُلْمَتِهِ كُلَّ مَا بَيْنَ
السَّمَآءِ وَالأَرْضِ [
It covers, or
conceals, with its
darkness, everything that is between the heaven
and the earth]. (Jel in xcii. 1.) And [hence it
is said that]
غَشِىَ اللَّيْلُ means
The night was, or
became, dark; as also ↓
اغشى. (Msb, TA.) ―
2-b5-
[And
غَشِيَهُ, and
غَشِىَ بَصَرَهُ and ↓
غشّاهُ, signify
It,
i. e. light (
ضَوْءٌ),
came upon him, and
upon his eye,
with an overpowering effect, so as to obscure, or
dazzle, his sight.] ―
2-b6-
غَشِيَهُ also signifies
جَآءَهُ (S)
or
أَتَاهُ (Mgh, Msb, K) [which have two meanings, i. e.
He came to him, and
he did it; both,
perhaps, here meant, for both are well-known
meanings of
غَشِيَهُ]; and, thus used, the aor. is as
above, (TA,) and the inf. n. is
غَشَيَانٌ, (S, TA,)
or
غِشْيَانٌ, (so in one of my copies of the S,) or the
subst. is ↓
غِشْيَانٌ, (Msb,) with kesr, (Mgh, Msb,)
syn. with إِتْيَانٌ. (Mgh.) You say,
غَشِىَ فُلَانًا He
came to such a one; syn.
أَتَاهُ; as also
غَشَاهُ, aor.
يَغْشُوهُ. (K.) ―
2-b7- [Hence,]
غَشِيَهَا, (S, MA, Msb,
K,) inf. n.
غَشَيَانٌ or
غِشْيَانٌ, (accord. to different
copies of the S,) or the latter and
غَشْىٌ, (MA,)
or ↓
غِشْيَانٌ is the subst. in this case also, (Msb,)
and
syn. with إِتْيَانٌ, metonymically used in the
sense of
جِمَاعٌ, (Mgh, Msb,) (tropical:)
He compressed her;
(S, MA, Msb, K;) namely, a woman; (MA, K;)
as also ↓
تغشّاها. (MA, Msb, TA.) ―
2-b8- And
غَشِىَ
إِلَيْهِ مَحْجَرًا He did to him (
أَتَى إِلَيْهِ)
a forbidden
action. (TA in art.
حجر.) [Hence,] ↓
غِشْيَانُ
المَحَارِمِ [
The doing of forbidden things]. (Mgh
and Msb and K in art.
رهق.) And
غَشِىَ الشَّىْءَ
He occupied himself with the thing, engaged in it,
or
personally managed or
conducted it; syn.
لَابَسَهُ
and
بَاشَرَهُ. (JM.) [And ↓
تغشّى has a similar
meaning; for it is said that]
التَّغَشِّى and
الغَشْىُ
primarily signify
الإِتْيَانُ and
المُلَابَسَةُ: and they
took an extended range in using the former, so
that one said,
تَغَشَّاهُمْ ↓
بِالعَدْلِ or
بِالْجَوْرِ [app.
meaning
He ruled them with equity or
with injustice]. (Ham p. 27.) [And one says,
يَغْشَى
الحُرُوبَ (see Ham p. 27), meaning
He plunges
into wars, or battles: see
مُغَامِسٌ, and its verb.]
―
2-b9- One says also,
غَشِيَهُ بِالسَّوْطِ, (K, in which it
is said to be like
رَضِيَهُ, and so accord. to some
copies of the S, the phrase in these being
غَشِيَتُ
الرَّجُلَ بِالسَّوْطِ,) or
غَشَّاهُ ↓
بِهِ, (accord. to other
copies of the S, the verb in these being written
غَشَّيْتُ, and thus accord. to an explanation of
قَنَّعَ
رَأْسَهُ بِالسَّوْطِ in art.
قنع in the K,)
He struck him
(i. e. a man, S)
with the whip; he flogged him.
(S, K.) ＝
1-A2-
غُشِىَ عَلَيْهِ, (S, MA, Mgh, Msb, K,)
inf. n.
غَشْىٌ, (S, Mgh, * K,) or
غُشْىٌ, (MA,) or
both, (Msb,) and
غَشَيَانٌ, (K, TA, and so in some
copies of the S,) or
غِشْيَانٌ, (so in other copies of
the S,) and ↓
غَشْيَةٌ, (S, Mgh,) or this last is an
inf. n. of un., (Msb,) or it is the subst., (K,)
He
swooned, i. e.
became senseless: (MA, PS:) or
i. q.
أُغْمِىَ عَلَيْهِ [q. v.]: (K, TA:) or
الغَشْىُ, or
الغُشْىُ,
is
a state of inertness (
تَعَطُّل, Mgh, Msb)
of the
motive and sensitive faculties, (Mgh,) or
of the
motive faculties and of the sensitive will, (Msb,)
on account of the weakness of the heart, (Mgh,
Msb,)
and the soul's becoming drawn together
thereto by a cause that suppresses it (
يُخْفِيهِ)
within so that it finds not a place of passage, and
of the causes thereof is a strangling [or
stifling], or
hurtful, cold repletion, or
vehement hunger, (Mgh,)
or
vehement pain, (Mgh, Msb,) or
cold, or
excessive hunger, (Msb,) or
an evil affection in some
associate, or
participating, organ, such as the
heart and the stomach: (Mgh:) some say that
it is
the same as الإِغْمَآءُ [for which see its proper
art.]; (Mgh, Msb;) thus say the scholastic theologians: (Mgh:) others (the physicians and the
lawyers, Mgh) make a difference between these
two terms. (Mgh, Msb.)
