بدن
Root entry · 1 derived lemmaبَدَنٌ باد بدن بدنن بدين The body, without the head and arms and legs; (M, Msb, K;) so says Az: (Msb:) or the body without the arms and legs: (Mgh:) or [the part ] from the shoulder-joint to the posteriors [ inclusive ]: (TA [as from the Mgh, in my copy of which it is not found]:) or the جَسَدَ [generally meaning the body together with the members ] of a man; (S;) often applied. to the whole of the جَسَد; (Az, TA;) and in the Kur x. 92 it is said to mean the body without soul: (S:) pl. أَبْدَانٌ; (M, Msb;) whence the phrase, mentioned by Lh, اـِنَّهَا لَحَسَنَةُ الأَبْدَانِ [meaning Verily she is beautiful in respect of the body ], as though the term بَدَنٌ were applied to every portion of her. (M.) شِرْكَةُ الأَبْدَانِ is originally شِرْكَةٌ بِالأَبْدَانِ, meaning Copartnership in bodily labours for the acquirement of gains. (Msb.) ― -b2- And hence, (tropical:) The part of a shirt, (Mgh, Msb,) and of a [garment of the kind called] جُبَّة, (Mgh,) that lies against the back and the belly, [i. e. the body thereof,] without the sleeves and the دَخَارِيص [or gores with which it is widened ]: (Mgh, Msb:) pl. as above. (Msb.) ― -b3- Also (assumed tropical:) A short دِرْع [or coat of mail ], (S, M, K,) of the measure of the body: (M:) or it is [ a coat of mail ] like a دِرْع, except that it is short, only such as covers the body, with short sleeves: (T:) or, as some say, any دِرْع: (M:) and so it is said to mean in the Kur x. 92 by IAar (T) and by Th; (M;) but Akh says that this assertion is of no account: (S:) pl. as above. (M, K.) ― -b4- And (assumed tropical:) A small [ garment of the kind called ] جُبَّة; as being likened to a coat of mail. (TA.) ― -b5- Accord. to Kr, (M,) A limb, or member: or, specially, the limbs, or members, of a slaughtered camel: (M, K: [in the latter of which, the former of these two explanations is improperly connected with the first in this paragraph by the conjunction او:]) to these he specially applies it in one instance: pl. as above. (M.) ― -b6- Also An old, or aged, man: (K:) or so رَجُلٌ بَدَنٌ. (T, S, M.) [In like manner, ↓ بَادِنٌ and ↓ بَدِنٌ are said by Golius, as on the authority of the S, to signify annosus et senior, applied to a man, and also to a woman; but this explanation is wrong; and the latter word I do not find in any lexicon.] ― -b7- And An old mountain-goat: (M, K:) or so وَعِلٌ بَدَنٌ: (S:) [in the present day, بَدَن is applied to the wild goat of the Arabian and Egyptian deserts and mountains; the capra jaela of Hamilton Smith; called by some an ibex; as is also تَيْتَل, properly ثَيْتَلٌ:] pl. [of pauc.] أَبْدُنُ (M, K [in the CK, erroneously, أَبْدَنٌ]) and [of mult.] بُدُونٌ, which is extr. [with respect to rule], on the authority of IAar. (M, TA.) The rájiz says, describing a bitch (S, M) and a mountain-goat, (M, TA,) قَدْ قُلْتُ لَمَّا بَدَتِ العُقَابُ وَضَمَّهَا وَالبَدَنَ الحِقَابٌ جِدِّى لِكُلِّ عَامِلٍ ثَوَابُ اَلرَّأْسُ وَالأَكْرُعُ وَالاـِهَابُ (S, * M, * TA,) [ I had said, when El-' Ikáb appeared, and El-Hikáb comprised her and the old mountain-goat, “Exert thyself: for every worker there is a recompense: the head and the shanks and the hide shall be thine”]: العقاب is the name of a bitch, and الحقاب is a certain mountain: he says, “Catch thou this goat, and I will make thy recompense to be the head and the shanks and the hide.” (TA.) [Hence Golius has been led to mistake الحِقَاب for a signification of البَدَنُ.] ― -b8- (assumed tropical:) The lineage, or parentage, of a man, and his grounds of pretension to respect or honour. (M, K.)
