(Mgh.) See also أَسْعَدُ: and شَرَجٌ.

شَقِيقٌ ذ : see شِقٌّ, in five places. ― -b2- شَقِيقُ البَرْقِ [so in a copy of the M, but the right reading may be شَقِيقَةُ البَرْقِ, which occurs in the next sentence of the M,] i. q. عَقِيقَتُهُ [expl. in the S, in art. خفو, as meaning Lightning that cleaves the clouds, and extends high, into the midst of the sky, without going to the right and left: but see شَقِيقَةٌ].

شَقُوقَةٌ ذ A certain bird; also called ↓ شَقِيقَةٌ: (M, K:) and ↓ شُقَيِّقَةٌ is the dim. thereof: (K:) AHát says, the ↓ شَقُوقَة is a very little thing, grayish (زُرَيْقَاآءُ), of the colour of ashes; ten and fifteen of what are thus called congregate; and I think it to be the ↓ شُقَيِّقَة, which is a دُخَّلَة of the دُخَّل [q. v.]; it is somewhat dusky; and its form is the form of these, but it is smaller than they: it is called ↓ شُقَيِّقَة becanse of its smallness: IDrd, in the class of فُعَيْعِل, mentions ↓ الشُّقَيِّقُ as signifying a certain species of birds [app. as a coll. gen. n., of which the n. un. is with ة]. (O, TA.)

شَقِيقَةٌ ذ [accord. to Golius, A fissure; as from the KL; but not so expl. in my copy of that work. ― -b2- ] An intervening space or tract between two elongated, or extended, tracts of sand, (S, M, * O, K, * [in the last of which الجَبَلَيْنِ is erroneously put for الجَبْلَيْنِ,]) thus expl. to AHn by an Arab of the desert, (TA,) producing herbage: (S, M, O, K:) or a rugged tract between two elongated, or extended, tracts of sand, producing good herbage; (M, TA;) so in the T, as expl. to its author by an Arab of the desert: (TA:) pl. شَقَائِقُ, (T, S, O, K, TA,) expl. by some as meaning sands themselves: (TA:) or a great piece of sand: or a piece of sand between two pieces thereof.

(TA.) ― -b2- To this is likened the tongue of the chaste, or eloquent, and able speaker; himself being likened to the braying stallion-camel: (O:) and hence they say of an orator, or a preacher, that he is ذُو شِقْشِقَةٍ: (S:) one says likewise of an orator, or a preacher, that is loud in voice and skilful in speech, هُوَ أَهْرَتُ الشِقْشِقَةِ [lit.

He, or it, was, or became, bad or evil, foul or ugly, &c.]: (K, TA:) [but in this case also it seems that the former of these verbs may be used by some as an imitative sequent to the latter of them: for] one says, قَبْحًا لَهُ وَشَقْحًا [ May removal far from good, or prosperity, &c., betide him ], (S, O, K,) in which شَقْحًا is an imitative sequent to قَبْحًا, or syn. therewith; (S, K;) and [in like manner] قُبْحًا لَهُ وَشُقْحًا; (O, K;) and, of a man, قَبُح وَشَقُحَ, inf. n. of the latter as above and in like manner of the former; (S;) and جَاآءَ بِالقَبَاحَةِ وَالشَّقَاحَةِ [ He did, or said, what was bad or evil, &c.]: (K:) and ↓ هُوَ قَبِيحٌ شَقِيحٌ [ He is bad or evil, foul or ugly, &c.]: (S, * O, K: *) and ↓ قَعَدَ مَقْبُوحًا مَشْقُوحًا [ He sat, or remained, far removed from good, or prosperity, &c.]: in like manner: (K:) but Sb intimates that ↓ شَقيِحٌ is not an imitative sequent, by his stating that the Arabs say شَقِيحٌ وَذَمِيمٌ [ Bad, or evil, &c., and blamed, &c.; or, more probably, شَقِيحٌ وَدَمِيمٌ, meaning foul and ugly ]: (L, TA:) and [it is said that] ↓ شَقِيحٌ signifies Recovering (نَاقِهٌ [for which Freytag appears to have read نَاقَة]) from disease; (O, K, TA;) and hence one says, فُلَانٌ قَبِيحٌ شَقِيحٌ [as though meaning Such a one is unsightly, being just recovering from disease ]: (TA:) and accord. to AZ, ↓ مَشْقَوحٌ is [not an imitative sequent, but] syn. with مَقْبُوحٌ: (L, TA:) in the phrase abovementioned, مَشْقُوحًا is said in the 'Ináyeh to mean broken: or far removed: (TA:) or it means reviled.
