جثو ند جثى

جَاثٍ جاث جاثي Sitting upon his knees: or standing upon the extremities of his toes: (K:) and [simply] sitting: or [ kneeling with his body and thighs erect, or nearly so; i. e.] putting down his knees [ upon the ground ] and raising his buttocks: (TA:) [see also 1, of which it is the part. n.:] pl. جُثِىٌ and جِثِىٌّ; (K;) or these may be pls., like بُكىٌّ and بكىٌ, pls. of بَاك; or inf. ns. used as epithets [as is indicated in the S]. (Er-Rághib, TA.) You say قَوْمٌ جُثِىٌّ [ A company of men sitting upon their knees ]; (S, Msb;) like as you say جَلَسَ جُلُوسًا and قَوْمٌ جُلُوسٌ. (S.) And hence, in the Kur [xix. 73], وَنَذَرُ الظَّالِمِينَ فِيهَا جُثِيًّا, and جِثِيًّا also, with kesr to the ج because of the kesr of the letter following it, [ And we will leave the wrongdoers therein, sitting upon their knees. ] (S.) And فُلَانٌ مِنْ جُثِىِّ جَهَنَّمَ: see جُثًا. (TA.) And, in the Kur [xlv. 27], وَتَرَي كُلَّ أُمَّةٍ جَاثِيَةً (TA) And thou shalt see every people sitting upon the knees, (Bd, Jel,) in an upright posture, not at ease: (Bd:) or congregated; (Bd, Jel;) from جَثْوَةٌ signifying “ a company, ” or “ congregated body. ” (Bd.) Whence, (TA,) سُورَةُ الجَاثِيَةِ The [ forty-fifth ] chapter, of the Kur-án, next after that called الدُّخَان. (S, TA.) ― -b2- [الجَاثِى, or الجَاثِى عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ, (assumed tropical:) The constellation Hercules. ]
