(Mgh.)

بِئْرٌ نَشُوطٌ ذ A well from which the bucket does not come forth until it is much pulled, (As, S, TA,) by reason of the distance of its bottom; (TA;) contr. of بِئْرٌ أَنْشَاطٌ. (K.)

(K, in art. دد.) -A2- A wild bull going forth from land to land, (S, K,) or from country to country.

أُنْشُوطَةٌ ذ [ A knot tied with a bow, or with a double bow, so as to form a kind of slip-knot; whence, in modern vulgar Arabic, عُقْدَة وَشُنَيْطَة, applied to such a tie; and شُنَيْطَة, applied to a simple slip-knot;] a knot, or tie, which easily becomes undone, or untied, like that of the running band of a pair of drawers; (S, Mgh, K;) a knot, or tie, which becomes undone when one of its two ends is pulled.

See also نَصٌّ below. ― -b4- [From نَصَّهُ signifying “ he raised it, ” and consequently “ he made it apparent, ” are derived several other significations, here following.] ― -b5- يَنُصُّهُمْ [app. for يَنُصُّ مَا عِنْدَهُمْ] occurs in a trad. respecting Heraclius, meaning (assumed tropical:) He elicits, and makes apparent, their opinion: (TA:) or نَصَّ الرَّجُلَ, (S, M, &c.,) inf. n. as above, (M,) signifies (tropical:) he went to the utmost point in questioning, or asking, the man respecting a thing, (S, K,) so as to elicit what he possessed [ of information respecting it ]; (S;) i. e.

[See also 3.] ― -b6- [In like manner you say,] نَصَّ النَّاقَةَ, (S, M, Mgh, K,) and الدَّابَّةَ, (M, Msb,) aor. as above, (M,) and so the inf. n., (S, M,) He made the she-camel, and the beast, to exert herself to the full, or to the utmost, or beyond measure, in going, or pace; or to go the pace termed مَرْفُوع; syn. رَفَعَهَا فِى السَّيْرِ: (M, Mgh:) or he elicited her utmost pace; (K, TA;) from النَّصُّ as signifying الرَّفْعُ; for the phrase رَفَعَهَا فِى السَّيْرِ necessarily implies the eliciting the utmost of her celerity of pace: (TA:) or he went a vehement pace so as to elicit the utmost that she possessed [ of celerity [: (As, S:) or he put her in motion so as to elicit her utmost pace: (A'Obeyd, TA:) or he urged, or incited, her, and elicited her pace: (Msb:) نَصَّ, alone, also occurs in a trad., (M, Msb,) as meaning رَفَعَ نَاقَتَهُ: (M:) and نَاقَتَهُ ↓ نَصْنَصَ signifies the same as نَصَّهَا. (IKtt, TA.) You do not say of a camel نَصَّ, making him the agent, and the verb intrans. (O, * TA.) [In the M, however, I find it said, that النَّصُّ and النَّصِيصُ signify السَّيْرُ الشَّدِيدُ; app. indicating that they are inf. ns., of which the verb is نَصَّ, aor., accord. to rule, نَصِ3َ , signifying He went a vehement pace, or vehemently: and Golius says, as on the authority of Ibn-Maaroof, that this verb is used intransitively, with نَصِيصٌ for its inf. n., as signifying valide incessit: but see نَصٌّ below.] ― -b7- [Hence, app.,] النَّصُّ also signifies The urging or inciting [a beast]; syn. الحَثُّ.

(M, TA.) -A2- نَصْنَصَ used transitively, see 1, latter portion, in three places.

نَصٌّ ذ The end, or extremity, of anything; (Az, S, M;) the utmost, or extreme, extent, term, limit, point, or reach, of a thing: this is the primary signification. (Az, TA.) It is said in a trad., (S, M,) of 'Alee, (S,) اـِذَا بَلَغَ النِّسَاآءُ نَصَّ الحِقَاقِ, فَالعَصَبَةُ أَوُلَى بِهَا مِنَ الأُمِّ (S, * M, K, *) or نَصَّ الحَقَائِقِ, (K, * TA,) but the former is that which is commonly known; (TA;) i. e. When women attain the period of mature intellect, (Mbr, S, K, TA,) and know the real natures of things, (K, art. حق,) [ then the male relations on the father's side have a better right to dispose of her in marriage than the mother; ] meaning, when they attain to that age at which they are qualified to contend for their rights; [accord. to the former reading;] for this is what is termed الحِقَاق: (K, * TA:) or when they attain to puberty: (Az, TA:) or when they attain to that period at which they become objects of contention for right; when every one of the guardians asserts himself to have the best right: (K:) or الحقاق in the trad. is a metaphorical term, from the same word as applied to camels [when entering upon the fourth year]; (K, * TA;) and الحقائق, also, in this case, accord. to some, properly signifies the same, being a pl. of حِقَّةٌ; (TA in art. حق;) and the meaning is, when they attain to the extreme term of childhood. (M, K.) -A2- In the conventional language of men of science, it signifies (tropical:) A thing [or statement ] plainly, or explicitly, declared, or made manifest, by God, and his Apostle; of the measure فَعْلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ: (Msb:) or a نَصّ of the Kur-án, and of the traditions, is an expression, or a phrase, or a sentence, indicating a particular meaning, not admitting any other than it: (TA:) so in the conventional language of the lawyers and the scholastic theologians: (MF, on the خُطْبَة of the K:) or a statute, or an ordinance, indicated by the manifest or plain meaning of words of the Kur-án, and of the Sunneh: from النَّصُّ as denoting “ elevation ” and “ appearance: ” or, as some say, from نَصَّهُ as signifying “ he elicited, and made apparent, his opinion. ” (TA.) Hence, also, as used by the practical lawyers, it signifies (tropical:) An evidence, or a proof: (TA:) [and particularly a text of the Kur-án, or of the Sunneh, used as an authority in an argument, for proof of an assertion. ] The pl.
