بجل
Root entry · 1 derived lemmaبَجَلْ بجل جل is a noun (Mughnee) syn. with حَسْبُ: (S, Mughnee, K: *) and is also a verbal noun syn. with يَكْفِى. (Mughnee, K. *) You say بَجَلِى (S, Mughnee, K) and بَجْلِى, (S, K,) meaning حَسْبِى [ My sufficiency, or a thing sufficing me, i. e. sufficient for me, is such a thing]: (S, Mughnee, K:) [it is said in the Ham, p. 145, as on the authority of Akh, that they do not say بَجْلى; but this is a mistranscription for بَجَلْنِى, as will be seen from what follows:] and, using it as a verbal noun, (Mughnee, K,) but this is rare, (Mughnee,) you say بَجَلْنِى, meaning يَكْفِينِى [ It suffices me, or will suffice me ]; (Mughnee, K;) and بَجَلْكَ, meaning يَكْفِيكَ [ It suffices thee, or will suffice thee ]: (K:) or, accord. to Akh, they say بَجَلْكَ, like as they say, قَطْكَ; but not بَجَلْنِى, like قَطْنِى: (S:) or the ن in بَجَلْنِى is absolutely necessary accord. to him who says that بَجَلٌ is a verbal noun; and accord. to him who says that this word is syn. with حَسْبُ, the ن is allowable. (MF.) [See, under the words قَدْ and قَطْ, what is said respecting قَدْنِى and قَطْنِى.] In the saying of Jábir Ibn-Ra-lán Es-Simbisee, لَمَّا رَأَتْ مَعْشَرًا قَلَّتْ حَمُولَتُهُمْ قَالَتْ سُعَادُ أَهٰذَا مَالُكُمْ بَجَلَا [ When she saw a company whose beasts of burden were few, So'ád said, Is this your property, sufficing you?] meaning, when she saw the fewness of our camels: the last word occupies the place of a denotative of state, and is made to end thus by poetic license: Abu-l-'Alà says that this word may be put in the accus. case as meaning not exceeding what I see; or it may be for بَجَلِى, after the manner of some of the Arabs who are related, by Akh and others, to have said غُلَامَا for غُلَامِى. (Ham pp. 299 and 300.) [See also 2: and see بَجَلٌ.] -A2- It is also a particle, (Mughnee,) meaning نَعَمْ [ Yes; yea; or even so ]. (Mughnee, K.)
