حَقِيقٌ حقيق Adapted, disposed, apt, meet, suited, suitable, fitted, fit, proper, competent, or worthy; syn. خَلِيقٌ, (Sh, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and جَدِيرٌ; (K;) as also ↓ حَقٌّ, (Ibn- 'Abbád, K,) and [some say] ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ: (Sh, S, Mgh, K:) حَقِيقٌ is said to be of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ; but accord. to the A, it is not so, because its fem. is with ة; but is from the supposed verb حَقُقَ, and is like خَلِيقٌ from خَلُقَ, and جَدِيرٌ from جَدُرَ: and ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ signifies [properly] rendered adapted &c.: (TA:) the pl. of حقيق is أَحِقَّاآءُ; and that of ↓ محقوق is مَحْقُوقُونَ. (S.) You say, هُوَ حَقِيقٌ بِهِ (Sh, S, Msb, K) and به ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ (Sh, S, K) and به ↓ حَقٌّ (Ibn-'Abbád, K) [ He is adapted, &c., for it; or worthy of it ]. And to a woman, أَنْتَ حَقِيقَةٌ بِكَذَا (A, TA) and حَقِيقَةٌ لِذٰلِكَ and لِذٰلِكَ ↓ مَحْقُوقَةٌ [ Thou art adapted, &c., for such a thing and for that thing; or worthy of it ]. (TA.) And أَنْتَ حَقِيقٌ بِأَنْ تَفْعَلَ (A, Mgh) and ↓ مَحْقُوقٌ (A) [ Thou art adapted, &c., for thy doing such a thing; or worthy of doing it]. And هُوَ حَقِيقٌ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ كَذَا [ He is adapted, &c., for his doing such a thing; or worthy to do it ]; (S;) in which case, ان is for بِأَنْ. (Mgh.) [And حَقِيقٌ بِكَذَا also signifies Having a right, or just title or claim, to such a thing; entitled to such a thing. ] It is said in the Kur [vii. 103], حَقِيقٌ عَلَى أَنْ لَا أَقْولَ عَلَى ا@للّٰهِ اـِلَّا الحَقَّ, meaning I am disposed [ not ] to say [ of God aught save ] the truth: or, as some say, I am vehemently desirous [ that I should not say &c.]; for, accord. to Aboo-'Alee, أَنَا حَقِيقٌ عَلَى كَذَا means I am vehemently desirous of such a thing: but one reading, that of Náfi', is حَقِيقٌ عَلَىَّ أَنْ لَا أَقُولَ, It is binding, or obligatory, or incumbent, on me [ that I should not say ]. (TA.)
