فَشْلٌ ذ Weak; (S, O, K;) or weak-hearted; (Msb;) cowardly; (S, Msb, K;) flagging, remiss, or languid; (K;) and accord. to the K, ↓ فَشِلٌ signifies the same, and one says, رَجُلٌ خَشْلٌ فَشْلٌ and ↓ خَشِلٌ فَشِلٌ; but [SM says that] this is a mistake, and [incorrectly] taken from a passage of the M, in which it is stated that one says رَجُلٌ خَشْلٌ فَشْلٌ and خَسْل فَسْلٌ; i. e., with ش in both and with س in both; not that it is with fet-h in both and like كَتِفٌ: (TA:) [I find, however, ↓ خَشِلٌ فَشِلٌ mentioned in art. خشل in the K, and also, as from Ibn-'Abbád, in the same art. in the O; and as ↓ فَشِلٌ is agreeable with a general rule as part. n. of فَشِلَ, I think it probably correct;] the pl. is أَفْشَالٌ, (S,) or فُشْلٌ, (K,) or both. (TA.) In the following verse, occurring in a trad. respecting the prayer for rain, (O, TA,) uttered to the Prophet by an Arab of the desert, (O,) وَلَا شَىْءَ مِمَّا يَأْكُلُ النَّاسُ عِنْدَنَا سِوَى الحَنْظَلِ العَامِىِّ وَالعِلْهِزِ الفَشْلِ by العِلْهِزِ الفَشْلِ is meant العِلْهِزِ الفَشْلِ اآكِلُهُ وَمُدَّخِرُهُ, i. e. الضَّعِيفِ; (O, TA; *) the phrase being like الشَّجَرَةَ المَلْعُونَةَ in the Kur [xvii. 62], i. e., اآكِلُوهَا: [so that the verse means, And there is nothing, of what men eat, in our possession, save the colocynth that is a year old, and therefore dry, or that has been laid up for the year of drought or barrenness, and the food made of blood and the fur of camels, the eater, and the storer, whereof is weak ]: (O, TA:) but it is also related with س, [i. e. الفَسْلِ,] and thus does not need any paraphrastic interpretation. (TA.) -A2- See also what next follows.

فِشْلٌ ذ (O, K,) or ↓ فَشْلٌ, (S,) [but said to be] with kesr, (O, K,) A certain thing (S, K) of the apparatus of the [ women's camel-vehicle called ] هَوْدَج, (S,) which the woman puts beneath her in the هودج: (K:) or the curtain (سِتْر) of the هودج; as also ↓ مِفْشَلٌ. (IAar, O, K.) [See a description thereof in the latter sentence of the first paragraph.]

الفَيْشَلَةُ ذ The حَشَفَة; (K;) [i. e.] the head [or glans ] of the penis: (S, O:) and the head of any مُحَوَّق [or penis having a large glans ]: (CK: in the text of the K as given in the TA, مُجَوَّف: [and thus in my MS. copy of the K; but it has been there altered, app. to agree with the TA, as have many other words in that copy; and the former reading is evidently, I think, the right:] some say that its ل is augmentative, like the ل in عَبْدَلٌ and in [the proper name] زَيْدَلٌ: but it may be from some other word than فَيْشَةٌ, though this has nearly the same meaning, [or, as is said in the TA in art. فيش, both have the same meaning,] and, if so, the ى may be augmentative, which is more agreeable with analogy: (TA:) the pl. is فَيَاشِلُ, (K,) and ↓ فَيْشَلٌ is another pl. [or rather a coll. gen. n.] thereof, used as such in a verse of Jereer. (TA.) ― -b2- [The pl.] فَيَاشِلُ signifies also a name of Certain trees. (K.) ― -b3- [Freytag adds as other meanings what belong to a description of the proper name of a certain water and of hills surrounding it, called الفَيَاشِلُ.]

تَفْشِيلٌ ذ Milk remaining in the udder: (Fr, O, K:) and so تَمْشِيلٌ. (Fr, O.)
