امه

1 أَمِهَ ذ , aor. اَمَهَ , inf. n. أَمَهٌ, He forgot. (S, K.) Hence the reading of I'Ab, [in the Kur xii. 45,] وَادَّكَرَ بَعْدَ أَمَهٍ [ And he remembered, or became reminded, after forgetting ]. (S.) AHeyth is said to have read بَعْدَ أَمْهٍ; and accord. to AO, أَمْهٌ signifies نِسْيَانٌ [like أَمَهٌ]; but this is not correct. (Az, TA.) ― -b2- He confessed, or acknowledged: (S, K:) occurring in this sense in a trad. of Ez-Zuhree; but not well known. (S.) The reading of I'Ab, mentioned above, بَعْدَ أَمَهٍ, is explained by A'Obeyd as meaning after confessing, or acknowledging. (TA.)
