(IAar, S, Msb.) It is said of ' Áïsheh, in a trad., تَحْتَ ↓ كَانَتْ تَحْتَبِكَ الدِرْعِ فِى الصَّلَاةِ She used to bind the اـِزَار [or waist-wrapper ], and make it fast, beneath the shift, in prayer; (S;) from حُبْكَةٌ, q. v.: (TA:) or بِاـِزَارٍ فَوْقَ القَمِيصِ ↓ كَانَتْ فِى الصَّلَاةِ تَحْتَبِكُ she used, in prayer, to bind an ازار over the shirt. (Msb.)

(TA.) One says also, حَبَكْتُ الحَظِيرَةَ بِقَصَبَاتِ كَمَ تُحْبَكُ عُرُوشُ الكَرْمِ بِالحِبَالِ [ I bound the enclosure for cattle with canes, or reeds, (or perhaps we should read بِقُضْبَانٍ, i. e. with twigs, ) like as the trellises of the grape-vine are bound with cords: see also the last sentence of this paragraph]. (Az, TA.) ― -b2- [In the present day, حَبَكَ also signifies He sewed the leaves of a book: and he bound a book.] -A2- حَبْكٌ also signifies The act of cutting: and smiting [or severing ] the neck.
