بوء

10 استباآءهُ استباآءه استباآءة : see 2. ― -b2- In the following verse of Zuheyr Ibn-Abee-Sulmà, وَلَمْ أَرَجَارَ بَيْتٍ يُسْتَبَاآءُ فَلَمْ أَرَ مَعْشَرًا أَسَرُوا هَدِيًّا ISk says that the هَدِىّ is one who is entitled to respect, or honour, or protection; and that يستباآء is syn. with ↓ يُتَبَوَّأُ, meaning whose wife is taken as a wife [by another man]: but Aboo-'Amr EshSheybánee says that يستباآء is from البَوَاآءُ, meaning “ retaliation: ” [and accord. to this interpretation, which is the more probable, the verse may be rendered, And I have not seen a company of men who have made captive one entitled to respect, or honour, or protection, nor have I seen one who has begged the protection of the people of a house, or of a tent, slain in retaliation: ] for, he says, he came to them desiring to beg their protection, and they took him, and slew him in retaliation for one of themselves. (T.) See 1, near the end of the paragraph. ― -b3- اِسْتَبَأْتُ الحَكَمَ, and بِالْحَكَم, I asked the judge to retaliate upon a slayer; to slay the slayer for the slain. (M.)
