حش

مَحَشٌّ ذ , (S, A, TA,) or ↓ مِحَشٌّ, (K, [but this seems to be a mistake occasioned by the accidental omission of وَالمَحَشُّ, as is indicated by the addition of وَيُكْسَرُ shortly after, referring to the word in a sense different from that which is here next mentioned,] A place, (S,) or land, (K,) in which is much حَشِيش [or dry herbage ]; (S, K) as also ↓ مَحَشَّةٌ: (K:) or a place in which one cuts حشيش: (A:) and the first (مَحَشٌّ) a place in which are much pasture, or herbage, and wealth, or good things. (K.) You say, هٰذَا مَحَشُّ صِدْقٍ, meaning This is a [ good ] region abounding in حَشِيش. (TA.) And اـِنَّكَ بِمَحَشِّ صِدْقٍ فَلَا تَبْرَحْهُ Verily thou art in a place abounding in good things, therefore do not quit it: so in some copies of the S; and accord. to this explanation, the word is tropically used: in other copies of the S, in a place abounding in حَشِيش. (TA.) ― -b2- See also حَشٌّ. ― -b3- Also the former, A thing in which حَشِيش is put; and so ↓ مِحَشٌّ; but the former is the more chaste; (A 'Obeyd, S, K;) and ↓ مِحَشَّةٌ, (K,) and ↓ مَحَشَّةٌ, which is more chaste; so in some copies of the K; (TA:) and ↓ حُشَاشٌ, like غُرَابٌ; of which the pl. is أَحْشِشَةٌ: (TA:) the first two of these words are applied to a woollen كِسَاآء [q. v.] in which حَشِيش is put: (IAth:) and ↓ حِشَاشٌ, with kesr, signifies a [ sack of the kind called ] جُوَالِق in which is حَشِيش. (K.) ― -b4- See also مِحَشٌّ.
