(Lh, TA.) ― -b2- الحَطِيمُ The حِجْر [q. v.] (Msb, K) of Mekkeh, (Msb,) [i. e.] of the Kaa- beh; (K;) which is excluded from the Kaabeh; said in the M to be of the part next the spout; and in the T, to be that in [or rather over ] which is the spout: so called because it was left broken when the House was raised: or because the Arabs used to throw in it, or upon it, the clothes in which they performed their circuitings, and it remained until it became broken by length of time: (TA:) or the wall of the حِجْر of the Kaabeh; (I' Ab, S, K;) the wall over which is the spout of the Kaabeh; (Ham p. 710;) the wall that [ partly ] encloses the حِجْر of the Kaabeh, on the western [or rather north-western ] side: (Har p. 389:) or the part between the angle [ of the Black Stone ] and [ the well of ] Zemzem and the Makám [- Ibrá- heem ] and, some add, the حِجْر: or from the Makám to the door: (K:) or the part between the black angle and the door and the Makám, where the people crowd together to offer up their supplications, so that they crush, or bruise, or press upon, one another: (K, * TA:) and there the pagans used to confederate.

حَطَّامٌ حطام : see حَطُومٌ: and حُطَمٌ.

حَاطُومٌ حاطوم : see حَطْمَةٌ. ― -b2- Also (tropical:) A digestive; syn. هَاضُومٌ. (K, TA. [In the CK, erroneously, حاضوم.]) It is implied in the K that this is also a signification of حَطْمَةٌ and حُطْمَةٌ; which it is not. (TA.) One says, نِعْمَ حَاطُومُ الطَّعَامِ البِطِّيخُ (tropical:) [ Excellent, or most excellent, is the digestive of food, the melon, or water-melon ]. (A, TA.)

(O, TS.) Lth says, I have not heard any verb from حَظٌّ: but it has a verb, transmitted from the Arabs, which Lth did not know, and had not heard: and AHeyth says, in writing to Ibn-Buzurj, هُمْ يُحَظُّونَ بِهِمْ, and يُجَدُّونَ بهم, (Az, TA,) meaning They become possessed of good fortune, and riches, or competence, or sufficiency. (L in art. جد.)

4 أَحْظَ3َ see 1, in two places. -A2- أَحْظَيْتُهُ عَلَيْهِ [ I preferred him above him ] may be from the same root as the other words of this art.; the second ظ being changed into ى; [like as أَمْلَيْتُ is, accord. to some, formed from أَمْلَلْتُ;] or it may be from حُظْوَةٌ. (TA.)

حَظٌّ حظ Fortune; or particularly good fortune; syn. جَدٌّ (S, Nh, Msb, K) and بَخْتٌ: (Nh:) and a share, portion, or lot: (S, Msb, K:) or particularly a share, portion, or lot, of something good or excellent: (Lth, K:) some of the people of Hims say حَنْزٌ; but when they form a pl., they return to the original, saying حُظُوظٌ: and the ن is regarded by them as a nasal sound, not as a radical letter: and in like manner they do in the case of every word having a doubled letter, such as رُزٌّ and أُتْرُجٌّ, saying رٌنْزٌ and أُتْرُنْجٌ: (Lth, L:) the pl. (of pauc., S) is أَحُظٌّ (S, K) and (of mult., S) حُظُوظٌ (AZ, S, Msb, K) and حُظُوظَةٌ (Ibn- 'Abbád, K) and حِظَاظٌ (IJ, K) and حُظٌّ (AZ, K) and ↓ أَحَاظٍ, (S, L, K, [in the CK, erroneously, أَحَاظٌ,]) irregularly, as though it were pl. of أَحْظٍ, (S, L,) or it is regularly formed from أَحْظٍ, which latter is [irregular, being] originally أَحْظُظٌ, [which is the original form of the pl. of pauc. mentioned above,] (IB,) and another pl. is ↓ حِظَاآءٌ, (L, [and so in the TA as from the K, but in several copies of the K ↓ حِظَّاآءٌ, which is of one of the forms of quasi-pl. ns.,]) also irregular, being formed [from حِظَاظٌ] by a change of the second ظ [into ى and then into ء]. (L.) -A2- See also حَظِيظٌ.

حِظَاآءٌ حظاآء and حِظَّاآءٌ: see حَظٌّ.

حَظِّىٌّ حظ حظى حظي حظيي , or حَظِىٌّ: see what next follows.

حَظِيظٌ حظيظ and ↓ حَظٌّ (S, K) and ↓ حَظِّىٌّ, as a relative n., accord. to [most of] the copies of the K, or as a defective word, [i. e. ↓ حَظِىٌّ, with a single ظ, as we find it in the CK,] accord. to Az, who says that it is originally حَظٌّ, (TA,) and ↓ مَحْظُوظٌ, (AA, S, Msb, K,) Fortunate; or possessed of good fortune; (S, Msb, K;) possessing a good share (حَظٌّ) of the means of subsistence: (TA:) or the first, accord. to Fr, possessing competence, or sufficiency; or rich, or wealthy, or opulent: (TA:) the pl. [accord. to analogy of حَظِيظٌ] is أَحِظَّاآءُ. (So in the L: [in the TA written أَحْظَاآء, which I think a mistake, though it seems to be there implied that it is pl. of حَظٌّ, and if so, we must suppose it to be originally أَحْظَاظٌ, like as حِظَاآءٌ, a pl. of the subst. حَظٌّ, if correct, is originally حِظَاظٌ.])

فُلَانٌ أَحَظُّ مِنْ فُلَانٍ ذ Such a one is more fortunate than such a one. (S, * Msb, * TA.)

أَحَاظٍ ذ said to be an irreg. pl. of حَظٌّ, q. v.

The Arabs say, لَا حِظَارَ عَلَى الأَسْمَاآءِ There is no prohibition against names; i. e., no one is forbidden to be named, or to name himself, as he pleases. (TA.) ― -b2- حَظَرَ الشَّىْءَ عَلَيْهِ It (anything intervening) debarred the thing from him. (L.) And حُظِرَ عَلَيْهِ كَذَا Such a thing was debarred from him, by something intervening.

(Mgh, TA.)

2 حَظَّرَ [حظّر, inf. n. تَحْظِيرٌ, app. signifies He made a limit of separation, or the like. For] زَمَنُ التَّحْظِيرِ (used as an era, Mgh) points to what 'Omar did, in dividing Wádi-l-Kurà among the Muslims and Benoo-'Odhrah, after the expulsion of the Jews: (Mgh, K, TA:) as though he assigned to every one a limit of separation.
