ريغ

رِيَاغٌ ذ , as in the [T and] O and Tekmileh and L; in the K, erroneously, ↓ رِيغٌ; (TA;) Dust, or dust raised: (Sh, K:) or, as some say, (TA,) dust, or earth, (K, TA,) in a general sense: or such as is comminuted. (TA.) Ru-beh says, describing an ass [i. e. a wild ass] and his females, وَاـِنْ أَثَارَتْ مِنْ رِيَاغٍ سَمْلَقَا تَهْوِى حَوَامِيهَا بِهِ مُدَقَّقَا using an inversion, for he means أَثَارَتْ رِيَاغًا مِنْ سَمْلَقٍ [i. e. And if they raise earth from a level plain, the sides of their hoofs make it to fall down reduced to powder ]. (TA.) -A2- And i. q. نِفَارٌ [The act of fleeing, going away or aside or apart or to a distance, retiring to a distance, shrinking, &c.; inf. n. of نَفَرَ, q. v.]: (K:) so some say. (TA.) -A3- Sgh says that this word may belong to the present art. and to art. روغ, q. v. (TA.)
