(TA.) -A2- حُوبٌ also signifies Perdition, destruction, or death. (K.) [Hence, app.,] اِبْنَةُ حوبٍ A quiver; syn. كِنَانَةٌ. (TA. [The vowel of the ح is not indicated.]) ― -b2- Disease. (K.) ― -b3- A trial, a trouble, or an affliction. (K.) You say, هٰؤُلَاآءِ عِيَالُ أَبِى حُوبٍ [ These are the family of the father of trouble; i. e., of one who is in trouble ]. (TA.) ― -b4- See also حَوْبٌ. -A3- And see حَوْبَاآءُ.
