أَيْهَاتَ ذ i. q. هَيْهَاتَ [ Far, or far from being believed or from the truth, is such a thing: or remoteness, or remoteness from being believed or from the truth, is to be attributed to such a thing. ]: as also ↓ أَيْهَانِ, (S, K,) and ↓ أَيْهَانَ, (K, TA, in the CK اَيْهَانُ,) [and several other dial. vars., for which see هَيْهَاتَ,] and ↓ أَيْهَا, (TA; and so in some copies of the S and K; in other copies of these, ↓ أَيْهًا; [but the former is app. the right;]) with the ن [or the ت] suppressed, (TA,) which is said in pronouncing [a thing] to be remote [whether in a proper or a tropical sense]: (S, TA:) Th explains ↓ أَيْهَانِ as meaning بَعِيدٌ ذٰلِكَ AA explains it as meaning بَعُدَ ذٰلِكَ, making it a verbal noun; and this is the correct explanation: (TA:) or the meaning is البُعْدُ, [as I have indicated above,] (K in art. هيه,) but this is only when لِ is prefixed to what follows it, as Sb says. (TA. [See هَيْهَاتَ.])
