انف

أَنْفَةُ الصَّلَاةِ ذ (assumed tropical:) The beginning, or commencement, of prayer; (K;) i. e. the first saying of اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ: (TA:) accord. to a relation of a trad., in which it occurs, with damm, [أُنْفَة,] (IAth, K,) but correctly with fet-h. (Hr, IAth, K.) The ة seems to be here added to أَنْف as it is in ذَنَبَةٌ for ذَنَبٌ. (Sgh.)
