شعث

شَعَثٌ ذ inf. n. of 1 [q. v.]. (L, Msb, &c.) ― -b2- [Hence,] لَمَّ ا@للّٰهُ شَعَثَكَ, (S,) and شَعَثَكُمْ, (A,) i. e. (tropical:) [ May God rectify, or repair, and consolidate, what is discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, of thy, and your, affairs ; (see art. لم;) or] consolidate thy, and your, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, state of affairs: (S, A: * [in the latter expressly distinguished as tropical:]) [and so ↓ شَعْثَكَ, and شَعْثَكُمْ; perhaps by poetic license; for] Kaab Ibn-Málik El-Ansáree says, لَمَّ ا@لْاـِلٰهُ بِهٍ شَعْثًا وَرَمَّ بِهِ أُمُورَ أُمَّتِهِ وَالأَمْرُ مُنْتَشِرُ (assumed tropical:) [ God rectified and consolidated, by him, a discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, state of affairs, and repaired, by him, the affairs of his people, when the state of affairs was broken up ]. (TA.) It is said in a trad., as a form of prayer, أَسْأَلُكَ رَحْمَةً تَلُمُّ بِهَا شَعَثِى i. e. (tropical:) [ I ask of Thee mercy ] whereby thou shalt consolidate what is discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, of my state of affairs. (TA.)
