(Msb. [But in this last work it seems to be مثبْهِمَةٌ, which is not agreeable with common usage.]) In the copies of the K, بُهْمٌ and بُهُمٌ are given as pls. of this word: but it seems that there is an omission or a misplacement in the passage; for these are said to be pls. of بَهِيمٌ, as shown above.

(TA.) وَبَاؤُوا بِغَضَبٍ مِنَ ا@للّٰهِ [in the Kur ii. 58 and iii. 108] means And they returned with anger from God; (Akh, S, Bd in ii. 58, and Jel in the same and in iii. 108;) i. e. the anger of God came upon them: (Akh, S:) or they returned deserving anger from God: (Bd in iii. 108:) or they became deserving of anger from God: from بَاآءَ فُلَانٌ بِفُلَانٍ such a one was deserving of being, or fit to be, slain in retaliation for such a one, (Ksh and Bd in ii. 58,) because his equal: (Ksh ibid.:) the primary signification of بَوْءٌ being [said to be] that of equalling, or being equal with. (Bd in ii. 58.) [See a similar phrase, also from the Kur, below.] ― -b2- بُؤْتُ بِهِ اـِلَيْهِ [ I returned with it to him: and hence,] I returned it, took it back, or brought it back, to him; (M, K;) as also ↓ أَبَأْتُهُ, (Th, M, K,) and بُؤْتُهُ, (Ks, M, K,) but this last is rare. (M.) ― -b3- بَاآءَ بِاـِثْمِهِ, aor. and inf. n. as above, (T, S,) signifies, accord. to Akh, He returned [laden] with his sin: (S:) or, accord. to As, he acknowledged it, or confessed it: (T:) or, accord. to others, (TA,) بَاآءَ بِذَنْبِهِ, (T, * M, Msb, K,) aor. as above, inf. n. بَوْءٌ and بَوَاآءٌ, (M, K,) he bore, or took upon himself, the burden of his sin, or crime, or offence; syn. اِحْتَمَلَهُ; (Aboo-Is-hák, T, M, K, TA;) and became [ as though he were ] the abiding-place thereof: (TA:) or he became burdened, or laden, with it: (Msb:) or he became, or made himself, answerable, responsible, or accountable, for it, by an inseparable obligation; syn. اِلْتَزَمَ بِهِ; for the primary signification of بَوَاآءٌ is [asserted to be] لُزُومٌ [i. e. adhesion, &c.]; and it is afterwards used in every case [so as to imply a meaning of this kind] according to the exigency of that case; as is said in the Nh, and expressly stated by Z and Er-Rághib: (TA:) or he acknowledged it, or confessed it. (M, K.) اـِنِّى أُرِيدُ أَنْ تَبُوْءَ بِاـِثْمِى وَ اـِثْمِكَ, in the Kur v. 35, means Verily I desire that thou return [laden] with the sin committed against me in slaying me, and thy sin which thou hast committed previously: (Jel:) or I desire that thou shouldst bear (تَحْمِلَ) my sin if I were to extend my hand towards thee, and thy sin in extending thy hand towards me: or the sin committed against me in slaying me, and thy sin for which thine offering was not accepted: and each noun is in the place of a denotative of state; i. e., [it means] that thou return involved in the two sins; bearing them: and perhaps the speaker may have meant, if that must inevitably take place, I desire that it may be thine act, not mine; so that the real meaning is, that it should not be his, not that it should be his brother's: or by the اـِثْمٌ may be meant the punishment thereof; for the desire of the punishment of the disobedient is allowable: (Bd:) accord. to Th, the meaning is, if thou have determined upon slaying me, the sin will be in thee, not in me. (M.) فَبَاؤُوا بِغَضَبٍ عَلَى غَضَبٍ [in the Kur ii. 84] is explained by Aboo-Is-hák as meaning So they bore the burden of anger upon anger; syn. اِحْتَمَلُوا; this being said by him to be the proper signification of the verb: or, as some say, the meaning is, [ they bore the burden of ] sin for which they deserved the fire [ of Hell ] following upon sin for which they deserved the same: or they returned [laden with anger upon anger ]: (T:) or they became deserving of anger upon anger. (Ksh.) [See a similar phrase, also from the Kur, above.] It is said in a form of prayer, أَبُوْءُ اـِلَيْكَ بِنِعْمَتِكَ, meaning I acknowledge, or confess, to Thee thy favour [towards me, as imposing an obligation upon me]. (Mgh.) You say also, بَاآءٌ بِحَقِّهِ; (S;) and بِدِّمِهِ; (M, K;) He acknowledged, or confessed, [ himself to be answerable, responsible, or accountable, for ] his right, due, or just claim; (S;) and so [ for ] his blood: (M, K:) the verb expresses acknowledgment, or confession, always of something for which its agent is, as it were, indebted, or answerable; not the contrary.

(Skr p. 16.) -A2- بَاآءٌ also signifies It (a thing, TA) suited, matched, tallied, corresponded, or agreed. (K.) [Hence,] بَاآءَ فُلَانٌ بِفُلَانٍ (inf. n. بَوَاآءٌ, TA) Such a one was the like, or equal, of such a one, to be slain [ in retaliation ] for him: (T:) or became his like, or equal, so that he was slain [ in retaliation ] for him: (Mgh:) and was slain for him, (AZ, T, S,) and his blood became a compensation for the blood of the other: (T:) or was deserving of being, or fit to be, slain in retaliation for him, (Ksh and Bd in ii. 58,) because his equal: (Ksh ibid.:) or was slain for him, and so became equal with him; (K, * TA;) as also ↓ أَبَاآءَهُ, and ↓ بَاوَأَهُ. (M, K.) One says, بُؤْبِهِ, i. e. Be thou of such as are slain [ in retaliation ] for him. (S.) And it is said in a prov., بَاآءَتْ عَرَارِ بِكَحْلٍ 'Arári became slain for Kahl: these were two cows, which smote each other with their horns, and both died: the proverb is applied to any two that become equal. (S in this art.; and the same and K [...]

(M.)

بَوَّأَهُمْ مَنْزِلًا ذ (AZ, M) and منزلًا ↓ أَبَاآءَهُمْ (AZ, TA) also signify He alighted and abode with them by the face, or front, of a mountain, where it rose from its base, (AZ, M, TA,) or next to a river, or brook.

نَكَحَ كح نكح : (M, K:) and also تَزَّوَجَ. (TA. [There mentioned as a distinct signification.]) The verb is trans. in these two senses.

(L.) And اباآء الاـِبِلَ, (T, M,) inf. n. as above, (T,) He made the camels to lie down [ in the مَبَاآءَة], one beside another. (T, M.) And اباآء عَلَيْهِ مَالَهُ He drove back, or brought back, to their nightly resting-place, for him, his cattle, (S, M, TA,) i. e., his camels, or his sheep or goats. (S, TA.) And [hence,] أَبَاآءَ ا@للّٰهُ عَلَيْهِمْ نَعَمًا لَا يَسَعُهَا المُرَاحُ [ God bestowed upon them cattle (i. e. camels &c.) which the nightly resting-place thereof would not contain ].

6 تَبَاوَاآ تباواآ They two (namely, two slain men, M) became equal [ by being slain, one in retaliation for the other ]. (M, K.) It is said in a trad., أَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَتَبَاوَؤُوا; incorrectly related as being يَتَباآءَوْا; (S, Mgh;) meaning He (the Prophet) ordered them that they should be equal in retaliation, in their fighting: (Mgh:) the occasion of the order was this: there was a conflict between two tribes of the Arabs, and one of the two tribes had superior power over the other, so they said, “ We will not be content unless we slay, for the slave of our party, the free of their party; and for the woman, the man: ” A'Obeyd holds the former reading to be the right. (T.)

10 استباآءهُ استباآءه استباآءة : see 2. ― -b2- In the following verse of Zuheyr Ibn-Abee-Sulmà, وَلَمْ أَرَجَارَ بَيْتٍ يُسْتَبَاآءُ فَلَمْ أَرَ مَعْشَرًا أَسَرُوا هَدِيًّا ISk says that the هَدِىّ is one who is entitled to respect, or honour, or protection; and that يستباآء is syn. with ↓ يُتَبَوَّأُ, meaning whose wife is taken as a wife [by another man]: but Aboo-'Amr EshSheybánee says that يستباآء is from البَوَاآءُ, meaning “ retaliation: ” [and accord. to this interpretation, which is the more probable, the verse may be rendered, And I have not seen a company of men who have made captive one entitled to respect, or honour, or protection, nor have I seen one who has begged the protection of the people of a house, or of a tent, slain in retaliation: ] for, he says, he came to them desiring to beg their protection, and they took him, and slew him in retaliation for one of themselves. (T.) See 1, near the end of the paragraph. ― -b3- اِسْتَبَأْتُ الحَكَمَ, and بِالْحَكَم, I asked the judge to retaliate upon a slayer; to slay the slayer for the slain. (M.)

(T.) [See also بَاهٌ, in art. بوه.] It is said in a trad., مَنِ ا@سْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمُ البَاآءَ ةَ فَلْيَتَزَّوجْ He who is able, of you, to marry, let him marry: (T:) or a prefixed noun is here suppressed; the meaning being, he who finds [or is able to procure ] the provisions (مُؤَن) of marriage, let him marry.

(M.) It is applied to one, and to two, and to more: so that you say, فُلَانٌ بَوَاآءٌ فُلَانٌ Such a one is the equal, &c., of such a one if slain in retaliation for him: (M:) and هُوَ بَوَاآءٌ He is an equal, &c.; and so هِىَ she: and هُمْ بَوَاآءٌ They are equals, &c.; and so هُنَّ they, referring to females: (Mgh:) and هُمْ بَوَاآءٌ فِى هٰذَا الأَمْرِ They are equals in this affair. (T.) Hence, in a trad. of 'Alee, respecting witnesses, اـَذَ كَانُوا بَوَاآءٌ When they are equals in number and rectitude. (Mgh.) And مَا فُلَانٌ لِفُلَانٍ بِبَوَاآءٌ Such a one is not an equal, &c., to such a one. (T.) And دَمُ فُلَانٍ بَوَاآءٌ لِدَمِ فُلَانٍ The blood of such a one is an equivalent for the blood of such a one. (S.) And الجِرَاحَاتُ بَوَاآءٌ Wounds are to be retaliated equally: a trad. (T, Mgh.)

[A similar ex. is given in the Mgh, and explained in the same manner; but there I find عَنْ بَوَاآءٍ; perhaps a mistranscription.]) And كَلَّمْنَاهُمْ فَأَجَابُوا عَنْ بَوَاآءٍ وَاحِدٍ [in a copy of the M عَلَى بواآء واحد] We spoke to them, and they replied with one reply: (T, S, O, K: *) i. e., their reply was not discordant: عَنْ being here used in the sense of بِ. (TA.) ― -b3- Also Retaliation. (T.)

1 بَابَ لَهُ باب له باب لة , aor. يَبُوبُ, (M, K,) quasi-inf. n., if there be such a verb, بِوَابَةٌ, with the و not changed into ى because it is not an inf. n. properly speaking, but a subst., (Lth, T,) He was, or became, a door-keeper, or gate-keeper, to him; (M, K;) namely, a Sultán (M) [or other person].
