(KL.) ― -b2- فَطَوَّعَتْ لَهُ نَفْسُهُ قَتْلَ أَخِيهِ, (S, O, Msb, * K, *) in the Kur [v. 33], means (tropical:) And his soul, or mind, facilitated to him [ the slaying of his brother ]; (Akh, S, O, Msb, TA;) like طَوَّقَتْهُ; (Akh, S, O, TA;) and like ↓ طَاوَعَتْهُ, [which is one of the explanations in the O and K, and] which means the same; (Msb;) and accord. to this explanation it is tropical: Mbr says that it is an instance of فَعَّلَتْ from الطَّوْعُ; and ↓ طَاعَتْ and طَوَّعَتْ are said to signify alike: (TA:) or the meaning is, aided him, or assisted him; (Fr, O, K;) accord. to which explanation, and that of Mbr, فِى is said by Az to be suppressed; the meaning being, فِى قَتْلِ أَخِيهِ; or لِقَتْلِ أَخِيهِ; and he prefers the explanation of Akh: (TA:) or the meaning is, (O, K,) accord. to Mujáhid, (O,) encouraged him, and (O, K) A 'Obeyd says that by this Mujáhid meant (TA) aided him, and complied with his wish. (O, K, TA,)

(TA.) You say, تَطَوَّعْ لِهٰذَا الأَمْرِ حَتَّى تَسْتَطِيعَهُ, (S,) and ↓ تَطَاوَعْ, (S, K, *) Constrain thyself to acquire ability to perform this affair until thou shalt be able to perform it. (S.) And تطوّع بِالشَّىْءِ He did the thing without its being incumbent, or obligatory, on him; syn. تَبَرَّعَ بِهِ. (S, O, * Msb.) مَنْ تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرًا, in the Kur ii. 153 [and 180], means Whoso does good that is not obligatory on him: (Jel:) or does good in obedience, whether obligatory or supererogatory: or does good beyond what is obligatory on him: (Bd:) خَيْرًا being for بِخَيْرٍ: (Bd, * Jel:) or it is an epithet qualifying an inf. n. suppressed: or the verb is made trans. as implying the meaning of أَتَى or فَعَلَى: (Bd:) and the Koofees, except 'Ásim, read يَطَّوَّعْ, for يَتَطَوَّعْ. (Az, * O, TA. *) [Hence,] طَلَاةُ التَّطَوُّعِ The supererogatory prayer; syn. النَّافِلَةُ. (O, K.) And Az says that تَطَوُّعٌ signifies A thing that one does spontaneously, not made obligatory on him by an ordinance of God; as though it were made a subst. (TA.)

10 استطاع ذ , (S, O, Msb, K,) inf. n. اِسْتِطَاعَةٌ, (S, O, Msb,) originally اِسْتِطْوَاعٌ, (O, B, TA,) i. q. أَطَاقَ [meaning He was able; and he was able to do, or accomplish, a thing, and to acquire or obtain it, and to have it, &c.]; (K, TA; [in the CK, erroneously, أَطَاعَ, which, however, correctly explains one meaning of استطاع, as will be seen by what follows;]) the inf. n. being syn. with اـِطَاقَةٌ, (S, O, TA,) or طَاقَةٌ, (Msb,) and قُدْرَةٌ: (Msb, TA:) but it is said peculiarly of a human being [or a rational creature], whereas اطاق is used in a general manner: (IB, TA:) and the application of the former requires a peculiar constitution of the agent, and the conception of the act, and the fitness of the object to be acted upon or effected, and the possession of an instrument when the action is instrumental as in the case of writing: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and one says also, (K,) or sometimes they said, (S, O, Msb,) اِسْطَاعَ (S, O, Msb, K,) aor. يَسْطِيعُ, (S, O, Msb,) with fet-h [to the first letter]; (Msb;) rejecting the ت, deeming it difficult of utterance with the ط, and disliking to incorporate it into the ط because the س would then become movent, which it never is: Hamzeh (i. e. Ez-Zeiyát, TA, not Khallád, O, K, TA) read, [in the Kur xviii. 96,] فَمَا ا@سْطَّاعُوا, with idghám, combining two quiescent letters: (S, O, K:) this reading is said by Zj, as on the authority of Kh and Yoo and Sb and others, to be incorrect; but Abu-l-'Abbás Ahmad Ibn Mohammad Ibn-'Abd-El-Ghanee Ed-Dimyátee, who died in the year [of the Flight] 1116, and Ibn-El-Jezeree, and El-Háfidh Aboo-'Amr, contradict him, affirming it to be allowable: (TA:) and Akh says, (S, O,) and some of the Arabs say اِسْتَاعَ, aor. يَسْتِيعُ, (S, O, K,) rejecting the ط; (S, O;) which Zj holds to be not allowable in reading [the Kur-án]: (TA:) and some of the Arabs say أَسْطَاعَ, aor. يُسْطِيعُ, [in the CK, erroneously, يَسْطِيعُ,] with the disjunctive ا [in the former], meaning أَطَاعَ, aor. يُطِيعُ, (Akh, S, O, K,) making the س to be a substitute for the suppressed vowel of the medial radical letter of the verb [اطاع], (Akh, S, O,) for, as is said by Kh and Sb, أَطَاعَ is originally أَطْوَعَ; (TA;) or, as AZ says, the verb in this case, with damm to the aor., is likened to أَفْعَلَ, aor. يُفْعِلُ, inf. n. اـِفْعَالٌ: (Msb:) but Zj says that he who reads فَمَا ا@سَطَّاعُوا errs; for the س of اِسْتَفْعَلَ is never movent: and Sb mentions مَا أَسْتَتِيعُ; holding it to be an instance of substitution. (TA.) ― -b2- See also 4. Some say that هَلْ يَسْتَطِيعُ رَبُّكَ أَنْ يُنَزِّلَ عَلَيْنَا مَائِدَةً مِنَ السَّمَاآءِ, in the Kur [v. 112], means هَلْ يُجِيبُ [i. e. Will thy Lord consent, or comply with the desire, that He should send down to us a table with food upon it from Heaven? ]: (Er-Rághib, TA:) ― -b3- and Ks read هَلْ تَسْتَطِيعُ رَبَّكَ, meaning Wilt thou demand of thy Lord that He consent, or comply with the desire? (O, TA:) for استطاعهُ signifies also He demanded his obedience, and his consent, or compliance with what he desired of him. (TA.)

طَاعٌ ذ accord. to the copies of the O and K; but some say طَاعٍ accord. to the O: see طَائِعٌ, in three places.

طَائِعٌ ذ (S, O, Msb, K) and ↓ طَاعٌ, (O, K,) and some say ↓ طَاعٍ, formed from طَائِعٌ by transposition, (O,) and ↓ طَيِّعٌ, signify the same, (S, O, Msb, K,) i. e. Being, or becoming, submissive; [or, simply, submissive; and obeying; or obedient; ] (Msb;) and ↓ طَوْعٌ, originally an inf. n., is likewise used as syn. with طَائِعٌ: (Ham p. 408:) the pl. is طُوَّعٌ, (S, O, K,) i. e. pl. of طَائِعٌ, (S, O,) and طَاعَةٌ is [also a pl. of طَائِعٌ, like as بَاعَةٌ is of بَائِعٌ; or] syn. with مُطِيعُونَ: (TA in art. سوع:) [whence one says, دَخَلَ فِى طَاعَتِهِ, and خَرَجَ مِنْ طَاعَتِهِ, He entered among, and he quitted, his obeyers, or those who obeyed him; i. e. he became obedient, and he became disobedient, to him: ] and ↓ مِطْوَاعٌ, (S, O, K,) pl. مَطَاوِيعُ, (TA,) is [app., agreeably with analogy, an intensive epithet, meaning very submissive or obedient, but is said to be, in like manner,] syn. with مُطِيعٌ, (S, O, K,) applied to a man: (S, O:) and ↓ مِطْوَاعَةٌ, applied to a man, [is app. a doubly intensive epithet; or] is syn. with مِطْوَاعٌ: (TA:) and is applied to a pl. number, as meaning compliant and submissive. (Har p. 237.) One says, جَاآءَ فُلَانٌ طَائِعًا Such a one came [ submissively, or obediently, or willingly, ] not being compelled against his will. (S, O.) And a poet says, حَلَفْتُ بِالبَيْتِ وَمَا حَوْلَهُ ↓ مِنْ عَائِذٍ بِالبَيْتِ أَوْطَاعِ [ I swore, or have sworn, by the House of God (i. e. the Kaabeh), and what are around it, of such as betakes himself for refuge to the House or of such as renders obedience by visiting it]. (O.) And one says also, ↓ جَاآءَ طَيِّعًا [ He came of his own accord, or willingly ]. (M and TA voce ذُو.) And اللِّسَانِ ↓ طَيِّعُ (tropical:) A man chaste, or eloquent, in speech. (TA.) And القِيَادِ ↓ نَاقَةٌ طَيِّعَةُ and القِيَادِ ↓ طَوْعُ (assumed tropical:) A she-camel that is gentle; [or tractable; ] that does not contend with her leader. (TA.)

(K in art. سن.)

طَيِّعٌ ذ : see the next preceding paragraph, in four places.

أَطْوَعُ ذ [as signifying More, and most, submissive or obedient is regularly formed from طَاعَ; or] is from الطَّاعَةُ [i. e. from أَطَاعَ], and similar to أَجْوَبُ [from أَجَابَ, and therefore anomalous]. (M and L in art. جوب.) أَطْوَعُ مِنْ فَرَسٍ, and مِنْ كَلْبٍ, [ More submissive, or obedient, that a horse, and than a dog, ] are provs. (Meyd.) ― -b2- [It app. signifies also Very submissive or obedient: see an ex. in a verse cited voce تَبَدَّعَ. ― -b3- And it is also a simple epithet, like أَهْوَنُ &c.:] see طَائِعٌ, last sentence.

(TA.)

أَخَذَهُ بِطُوفِ رَقَبَتِهِ ذ and رقبته ↓ بِطَافِ i. q. بِصُوفِ رقبته (S, K) and بِصَافِهَا. (K.)

[or coll. gen. n.]; (Msb, TA;) and its sing. [or n. un.] is طُوفَانَةٌ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) accord. to analogy: (S:) thus says Akh: (S, TA:) or it is an inf. n., like رُجْحَانٌ and نُقْصَانٌ; and is from طَافَ, aor. يَطُوفُ: (Msb, TA:) thus says Abu-l- 'Abbás; and he says that there is no need of seeking for it a sing.: some say that it is of the measure فُلْعَانٌ, from طَفَا المَاآءُ, aor. يَطْفُو, meaning “ the water rose, ” or “ became high; ” the ل being transposed to the place of the ع; but this is strange.

(TA.) [In the CK, a meaning belonging to طُوفَان is erroneously assigned to طَوَّاف.] -A2- Also A maker of the طَوْف that is composed of [ inflated ] water-skins [ &c. ] upon which one crosses [ rivers &c. ].

(TA.) ― -b5- لَأَقْطَعَنَّ مِنْهُ طَائِفًا occurs in a trad. respecting a runaway slave, as meaning [ I will assuredly cut off ] some one, or more, of his أَطْرَاف [app. meaning fingers ]: or, as some relate it, the word is طَابَِقًا.
