اتى

1 أَتَى ذ , aor. يَأْتِى, (Msb,) and, in the dial. of Hudheyl, يَأْت, without ى; (S;) and أَتَيْتُهُ, (T, S, M, Msb, K,) [aor. اآتِيهِ;] and in the imperative, some of the Arabs say, تِ, suppressing the ا, like as is done in خُذْ and كُلْ and مُرْ; (IJ, M;) inf. n. اـِتْيَانٌ, (T, S, * M, Mgh, Msb, K,) or this is a simple subst., (Msb.) and اـِتْيَانَةٌ, (M, K,) which should not be used as an inf. n. of un., unless by a bad poetic licence, (Lth, T,) and أَتْىٌ (T, S, M, Msb, K) and أُتِىٌ and اـِتِىٌ and مَأْتَاةٌ; (M, K;) He [or it ] came; (Msb;) and I came to him, or it; (S, M, Mgh, * Msb, K;) or was, or became, present at it, namely, a place: (Mgh:) as also أَتَا, aor. يَأْتُو; (Msb;) and أَتَوْتُهُ, (T, S, M, K), aor. اآتُوهُ: (S:) for which reason, we assign the generality of the words mentioned in art. اتو to the present art. also. (M.) [Accord. to the authorities here indicated for the signification of أَتَى, this verb and جَاآءَ are syn.: some attempt to distinguish them; but contradict one another in so doing: the slight distinctions that exist between them will be best seen by a comparison of the exs. in this art. with those in art. جيأ:] accord. to Er-Rághib, the proper [or primary] signification of الاـِتْيَانُ is The coming with ease. (TA.) ― -b2- أَتَاهَا, (Mgh, Msb,) inf. n. اـِتْيَانٌ, (Msb,) [lit. He came to her, ] means (assumed tropical:) he lay with her; syn. جَامَعَهَا; (Mgh, Msb;) namely, a woman, (Mgh,) or his wife. (Msb.) Hence an expression in the Kur xxvi. 165. (TA.) ― -b3- أَتَى القَوْمَ [ He came to the people: and hence,] he asserted his relationship to the people, not being of them. (Msb.) [See أَتِىُّ in art. اتو.] ― -b4- أَتَي بِهِ [ He came with, or brought, him, and it; or] he made him (a man), and it (a thing, such, for instance, as property), to come. (Kull.) [See also 4: and see, in what follows, other significations of أَتَى trans. by means of بِ. Hence, أَتَى بِوَلَدٍ He begot a child, or children. And أَتَتْ بِهِ She brought him forth; gave birth to him. ] Accord. to Aboo-Is-hák, the meaning of the words in the Kur [ii. 143] أَيْنَمَا تَكُونُوا يَأْتِ بِكُمُ اللّٰهُ جَمِيعًا is, Wherever ye be, God will bring you all back unto Himself. (M.) [You say also, أَتَى بِبَيِّنَةٍ He adduced a proof. ] See also 3. ― -b5- أَتَى الأَمْرَ [ He entered into, engaged in, or occupied himself with, the thing, or affair: and, as also أَتَى بِهِ,] he did, executed, or performed, the thing, or affair; (M. K;) and in like manner, الذَّنْبَ, [and بَالذَّنْبِ,] the crime, sin, or offence. (M.) It is said in the Kur [ix. 54], وَلَا يَأْتُونَ الصَّلَاةَ اـِلَّا وَهُمْ كُسَالَى, meaning And they do not enter into, or engage in, prayer, unless when they are heavy, or sluggish. (TA.) And you say, أَتَى الفَاحِشَهَ, [and بِالفَاحِشَةِ, (see Kur iv. 23 and lxv. 1,)] He entered into, engaged in, or occupied himself with, [or he did, or committed, ] that which was excessively foul or evil. (TA.) And أَتَى بِالجَيِّدِ مِنْ قَوْلٍ أَوْ فِعْلٍ [ He said, gave utterance to, uttered, or expressed, or he brought to pass, did, or effected, what was good, or excellent; he said, or did, well, or excel-lently ]. (Msb in art. جود.) And أَتَى بِجَرْىِ بَعْدَ جَرْىٍ[ He (a horse) performed, or fetched, run after run ]. (S in art. تأم, &c.) ― -b6- وَلَا يُفْلِحُ السَّاحِرُ حَيْثُ أَتَى[in the Kur xx. 72] means حَيْثُ كَانَ [ And the enchanter shall not prosper where he is, or wherever he may be ]; (M, Bd, K;) and where he cometh: (Bd:) or حَيْثُ أَتَى بِسِحْرِهِ[ where he cometh with his enchantment; or where he performeth his enchantment ]: (Jel:) and it is said to mean that where the enchanter is, he must be slain: such is the doctrine of the lawyers. (M.) ― -b7- Z mentions that أَتَىoccurs in the sense of صَارَ [ He, or it, became; like as we sometimes say, he, or it, came, or came to be ]; like جَاآءَin the saying, جَاآءَ البِنَاآءُ مُحْكَمًا. (Kull.) [So you say, البِنَاآءُ مُحْكَمًا The building became, or came to be, firm, strong, or compact. ] ― -b8- The saying, in the Kur [xvi. 1], أَتَى أَمْرُ اآللّٰهِ فَلَا تَسْتَعْجِلُوهُmeans [ The threatened punishment ordained of God hath approached: therefore desire not ye to hasten it: ] its coming hath approached. (TA.) [And in like manner,] أُتِىَ فُلَانٌ, like عُنِىَ, means Such a one was approached by the enemy come in sight of him. (K.) أُتِيتَ يَا فُلَانٌ[ Thou art approached &c., O such a one, ] is said when one is warned of an enemy that has come in sight of him. (Sgh, TA.) And أَتَى عَلَيْهِمُ العَدُوُّmeans The enemy came to them, [or came down upon them, for, as MF observes, أَتَىwhen trans. by means of عَلَىseems to imply the meaning of نَزَلَ,] overcoming, or overpowering, them. (Bd in xviii. 40.) ― -b9- Hence, أَتَى عَلَيْهِ[and أَتَاهُ, as will be seen by what follows,] (assumed tropical:) He destroyed him, or it. (Bd ubi suprà.) And hence, from اـِتْيَانُ العَدُوِّ, (Mgh,) أَتَى عَلَيْهِ الدَّهْرُ(tropical:) Time, or fortune, destroyed him. (M, Mgh, Msb, K.) Destruction is meant in the Kur [lix. 2], where it is said, فأَتاهُمُ اللّٰهُ مِنْ حيْثُ لَمْ يَحْتَسِبُوا(assumed tropical:) [ But God brought destruction upon them whence they did not reckon, or expect ]. (EsSemeen, TA.) And it is said in the Kur [xvi. 28], فَأَتَى اللّٰهُ بُنْيَانَهُمْ مِنَ القَوَاعِدِ, i. e. (assumed tropical:) But God removed their building from the foundations, and demolished it upon them, so that He destroyed them. (TA.) أَتَى عَلَيْهِalso signifies (assumed tropical:) He caused it to come to an end; made an end of it; consumed it; [ devoured it; ] exhausted it; came to, or reached, the end of it; namely, a thing; (Kull;) as, for instance, what was in a bowl; (K in art. جردم;) and what was in a vessel; (K in art. جرجب;) like فَرَغَ مِنْهُ: (ISd cited in the TA in art. نكش:) or i. q. مَرَّ بِهِ[which may be rendered he went away with it; but this, as an explanation of أَتَى عَلَيْهِ, has another meaning, which see in what follows].
