2 رَجَّنَ see 1, latter part, in two places.

4 أَرْجَنَ as intrans. and trans.: see 1, in two places.

8 ارتجن ذ : see 1, first sentence. ― -b2- Also It was, or became, heaped, or piled, up, or together, or accumulated, one part upon another; syn. اِرْتَكَمَ, (K,) and اِرْتَجَمَ. (Aboo-Sa'eed, TA in art. رجم.) ― -b3- And, said of fresh butter, It was cooked [ for the purpose of clarifying it ] without its becoming clear, and became bad, or spoiled: (S, K, TA:) or it turned in the skin containing the churned milk: (TA:) or it became bad, or spoiled, in the churning: (TA in art. خلط:) from اِرْتِجَانُ الاـِذْوَابَةِ meaning the fresh butter's coming forth from the skin mixed with the thick milk, and being in that state put upon the fire, so that, when it boils, the thick milk appears mixed with the clarified butter. (TA.) اِرْتَجَنَتِ الزُّبْدَةُ, meaning The piece of fresh butter became mixed up with the milk, is a prov., alluding to a difficult affair which one cannot find the way to adjust. (L in art. زبد.) ― -b4- Hence, (TA,) ارتجن عَلَى القَوْمِ أَمْرُهُمْ (assumed tropical:) The affair, or case, of the people, or party, became confused to them. (S, K. *)

1 رَجَوْتُهُ ذ , aor. أَرْجُوهُ, (S, Msb,) inf. n. رَجْوٌ, (S, M, K,) or رُجُوٌّ, (Msb,) and رَجَاآءٌ, (S, K, TA, &c., [in the CK erroneously written with the short ا i. e., without the meddeh and ء,]) or the latter is a simple subst., (Msb,) and رَجَاوَةٌ (S, K) and رَجَاةٌ, or رَجَاآءَةٌ, (accord. to different copies of the K,) or both, (CK,) and مَرْجَاةٌ; (K;) and ↓ رَجَّيْتُهُ, (S,) inf. n. تَرْجِيَةٌ; (K;) and ↓ تَرَجَّيْتُهُ, (S, K, *) and ↓ اِرْتَجَيْتُهُ; (S, Msb, K; *) I hoped for him [or it; relating only to what is possible; syn. with أَمَلْتُهُ; see رَجَاآءٌ, below]; all signify the same: (S:) and رَجَيْتُهُ, aor. أَرْجِيهِ, is a dial. var. of رَجَوْتُهُ: (Msb:) and رَجِيَهُ, aor. يَرْجَاهُ, like رَضِيَهُ, is a dial. var. of رَجَاهُ, aor. يَرْجُوهُ, accord. to Lth: it is disapproved by Az, because heard by him on no other authority than that of Lth; but it is mentioned also by ISd. (TA.) One says, مَا أَتَيْتُكَ اـِلَّا رَجَاوَةَ الخَيْرِ [ I did not, or have not, come to thee except hoping for that which is good ]. (S.) No regard is to be paid to the assertion of Lth, that the saying فَعَلْتُ رَجَاةَ كَذَا [ I did a thing hoping for such a thing ] is a mistake, and that the correct word is only رَجَاآءَ; for رَجَاةٌ occurs in a trad., and in the poetry of the Arabs. (TA.) ― -b2- Sometimes رَجْوٌ, (S,) or رُجُوٌّ, (Msb,) has the meaning of خَوْفٌ; (S, Msb;) because the hoper fears that he may not attain the thing for which he hopes; (Msb;) and so رَجَاآءٌ; (T, S;) but only when there is with it a negative particle: (Fr, T, TA:) you say, مَا رَجَوْتُكَ (assumed tropical:) I feared not thee: but you do not say, رَجَوْتُكَ, meaning I feared thee: (TA:) the saying in the Kur [lxxi. 12], مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْجُونَ لِلّٰهِ وَقَارًا means (assumed tropical:) [ What aileth you ] that ye will not fear the greatness, or majesty, of God? (S:) or the meaning is, that ye will not hope for God's magnifying of him who serves Him and obeys Him? or that ye will not believe in greatness, or majesty, belonging to God, so that ye may fear disobeying Him? (Bd:) another instance occurs in a verse of Aboo-Dhu-eyb, cited in art. خلف, conj. 3: (S:) and ↓ ارتجاهُ, also, signifies (tropical:) he feared him, or it; [but app. only when preceded by a negative particle, as in exs. cited in the TA;] (K, TA;) in which sense it is tropical. (TA.) Accord. to Lth, رَجْوٌ is also syn. with مُبَالَاةٌ; and مَا أَرْجُو means مَا أُبَالِى [ I do not care, mind, or heed ]: but this is disapproved by Az. (TA.) -A2- رَجِىَ He broke off, or ceased, [app. by reason of inability, ] from speaking: (K:) or, accord. to Az, he became confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course: or, as Fr says, he desired to speak, and was unable to do so: (TA:) and رُجِىَ عَلَيْهِ, like عُنِىَ, he became unable to speak. (K.)

2 رَجَّوَ see 1, first sentence.

4 أَرْجَتْ ذ She (a camel, S, or a pregnant female [of any kind], TA) was, or became, near to bringing forth; (S, K, TA;) so that her bringing forth was hoped for: accord. to Er-Rághib, the proper signification is she made her owner to have hope in himself that her bringing forth was near: (TA:) and أَرْجَأَتْ means the same. (S.) ― -b2- ارجى الصَّيْدَ He failed of getting any game; (K;) [as though he made the game to have hope;] and ارجأهُ signifies the same: (TA:) or so ارجى [alone], and ارجأ [alone]. (K and TA in art. رجأ.) -A2- And أَرْجَيْتُهُ, (S, Msb,) inf. n. اـِرْجَاآءٌ, (K,) I postponed it, put it off, deferred it, or delayed it; (S, Msb, K; *) namely, an affair [&c.]; (S;) as also ارجأتهُ. (S, Msb.) [See the latter verb: and see also an ex. in the Kur vii. 108 and xxvi. 35; and the various readings mentioned by Bd in the former instance.] -A3- ارجى البِئْرَ He made a side (رَجًا) to the well. (S, K.)

5 تَرَجَّوَ see 1, first sentence. ― -b2- [In the present day, ترجّى is often used as meaning He besought, entreated, petitioned, or prayed. ]

8 اـِرْتَجَوَ see 1, first sentence: ― -b2- and again in the latter part of the paragraph.

رَجًا ذ The side, (K,) in a general sense: (TA:) or the side of a well, (S, Msb, K,) and of the sky, (Er-Rághib, TA,) and of anything; (S, Msb; *) and ↓ رَجَاآءٌ signifies the same: (K:) the side of a well from its top to its bottom; (TA;) and the two sides thereof: which last is also [or properly] the meaning of the dual; which is رَجَوَانِ: (S:) pl. أَرْجَاآءٌ. (S, Msb, K.) Hence, in the Kur [lxix. 17], وَا@لْمَلَكُ عَلَى أَرْجَائِهَا [ The angels being at the sides thereof ]. (S, TA.) They said, رُمِىَ بِهِ الرَّجَوَانِ, meaning (assumed tropical:) He was cast into places of destruction: (S:) or it is said of one who is held in mean estimation: (M, TA:) اِسْتِهْزَاآءٌ in the K is a mistake for اُسْتُهِينَ بِهِ, the reading in the M: (TA:) as though the two [opposite] sides of the well were cast at with him. (K.) And one says of him who will not be deceived so as to be turned away from one course to another, لَا تُرْمَى بِهِ الرَّجَوَانِ (assumed tropical:) [lit. The two sides of the well will not be cast at with him ]; in allusion to the well's two [opposite] sides' being cast at with the bucket. (Z, TA.)

رَجَاآءٌ ذ [accord. to most an inf. n., (see 1, in two senses,) but accord. to the Msb a simple subst.,] Hope; syn. أَمَلٌ; (S and M and K in art امل;) contr. of يَأْسٌ; (K;) an opinion requiring the happening of an event in which will be a cause of happiness; (Er-Rághib, TA;) expectation of deriving advantage from an event of which a cause has already occurred: (El-Harállee, TA:) or, as Ibn-El-Kemál says, properly, i. q. أَمَلٌ: and conventionally, the clinging of the heart to the happening of a future loved event: (TA:) or hope, or eager desire, for a thing that may possibly happen; differing from تَمَنٍّ, which relates to what is possible and to what is impossible. (MF, TA.) -A2- See also رَجًا.

رَجِيَّةٌ ذ [ A thing hoped for ]: you say, مَالَى فِى فُلَانٍ رَجِيَّةٌ There is nothing for me to hope for in such a one. (S.)

رَاجٍ ذ [ Hoping: ― -b2- and Fearing ]. (Msb.)

أُرْجِيَّةٌ ذ A thing postponed, put off, deferred, or delayed. (ISd, K.)

أُرْجُوَانٌ ذ Redness: (Msb, K:) a certain red dye: (K:) or a certain dye, intensely red: (S:) accord. to A'Obeyd, (S,) what is called نَشَاسْتَج; (S, K;) and he says that the بَهْرَمَان is inferior to it (دُونَهُ [but this often has the contr. meaning]): it is said also that ارجوان is an arabicized word, from the Pers. أَرْغَوَان, which means a sort of trees having a red blossom, of the most beautiful kind; and that every colour resembling it is termed ارجوان. (S.) Also Red: (K:) and red garments or clothes. (IAar, K.) And one says أَحْمَرُ أُرْجُوَانٌ, mentioned by Seer has having an intensive meaning; (M, TA;) in the K, ↓ أَحْمَرُ أُرْجُوَانِىٌّ; but this is wrong; (TA;) i. e. Intensely red. (K, TA.) And قَطِيفَةٌ حَمْرَاآءُ أُرْجُوَانٌ [ A villous, or nappy, outer, or wrapping, garment, intensely red ]: (S, M, A:) but IAth says that the most common practice is to prefix the word ثَوْب or قَطِيفَة to أُرْجُوَان so as to govern the latter in the gen. case; [saying ثَوْبُ أُرْجُوَانٍ or قَطِيفَةُ أُرْجُوَانٍ;] and that the word [ارجوان] is said by some to be Arabic, the ا and ن being augmentative. (TA.)

أُرْجُوَانِىٌّ ذ : see the next preceding paragraph.

[ مُرْجًى ذ Postponed, put off, deferred, or delayed; as also مُرْجَأٌ.] Some read [in the Kur ix. 107] وَاآخَرُونَ مُرْجَوْنَ لِأَمْرِ ا@للّٰهِ. (S: see مرجأ, in art. رجأ.)

[ مُرْجٍ ذ and مُرْجِيَةٌ and] مُرْجِىءٌ and مُرْجِءَةٌ A female near to bringing forth. (K, * TA.) -A2- مُرْجٍ also signifies A man who is one of the people [or sect ] called the مُرْجِيَة; (S;) or one of the مُرْجِئَة, mentioned in art. رجأ; as also مُرْجِىءٌ; and so ↓ مُرْجِىٌّ; (K;) or this is [properly speaking] a rel. n. from مُرْجٍ; (S;) and مُرْجِئِىٌّ also; (K;) or rather this is another rel. n., like مُرْجِىٌّ. (IB and TA in art. رجأ, q. v.)

مُرْجِى ذ : see what next precedes. You say رَجُلٌ مُرْجِىٌّ [ A man of, or belonging to, the sect called the مُرْجِيَة]. (S.)

رَحَحٌ ذ Width in a solid hoof: such is approved; (S, K;) being the contr. of that which is termed مُصْطَرٌّ: but when it spreads out much, it is a fault: (S:) or a spreading therein: (A:) or a spreading thereof; and width of a human foot: (Lth, TA:) or a spreading of a solid hoof, with thinness: or width of a human foot, with thinness: and in a solid hoof, which is a fault: or excessive width in a solid hoof.

And قَصْعَةٌ رَحْرَحٌ and ↓ رَحْرَحَانِيَّةٌ A bowl spreading widely [and very widely ]. (AA, TA.) And it is said in a trad., بُحْبُوحُةُ الجَنَّةِ ↓ رَحْرَحَانِيَّةٌ The middle of Paradise is [ very ] wide, or ample: the ا and ن are added to give intensiveness to the signification.

أَرَحُّ ذ Spreading, (Lth, TA,) or widely expanded; (TA;) applied to a solid hoof, (Lth, TA,) and to a foot such as is termed خُفّ: (TA:) and wide; applied to anything: thus قَدَمٌ رَحَّاآءُ a wide human foot: (Lth, TA:) and a human foot having the middle of the sole even with the fore part; (L, TA;) flat-soled; i. e. having, in the sole, no hollow part that does not touch the ground: (S:) and كِرْكِرّةٌ رَحَّاآءُ a wide callous protuberance upon the breast of a camel: (TA:) and جَفْنَةٌ رَحَّاآءُ a wide [ bowl such as is termed ] جِفنة; like رَوْحَاآءُ; wide and not deep: (TA:) and جِفَانٌ رُحُحٌ wide جفان [pl. of جَفْنَةٌ].

(T, TA.) Also, applied to a camel, Having one foot cleaving to another. (TA.)

1 رَحُبَ ذ , (Msb, K,) said of a place, (Msb,) or of a thing, (TA,) and رَحُبَتْ, said of a land, (أَرْض, S,) or of a country, (بِلَاد, A, TA,) aor. رَحُبَ , inf. n. رُحْبٌ (S, A, * Msb, K) and رَحَابَةٌ; (S, K;) and رَحِبَ, (Msb, K,) and رَحِبَتْ, (TA,) aor. رَحَبَ , (Msb, K,) inf. n. رَحَبٌ; (Msb, TA;) and ↓ ارحب, (Msb, K,) and ارحبت; (TA;) It was, or became, ample, spacious, wide, or roomy. (S, K, TA.) رَحُبَتِ الدَّارُ and ↓ أَرْحَبَت both signify the same, i.e. The house, or abode, was ample, &c.; or may the house, or abode, be ample, &c. (S, TA.) And they said, عَلَيْكَ وَطُلَّتْ ↓ أَرْحَبَتْ, meaning May it (the country, البِلَادُ,) be spacious to thee, and be moistened by gentle rain, or by dew: so accord. to Aboo-Is-hák. (TA.) ضَاقَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الأَرْضُ بِمَا رَحُبَتْ, in the Kur ix. 119, means The earth became strait to them with [i. e. notwithstanding ] its spaciousness. (Bd, Jel.) ― -b2- رَحُبَ, accord. to the original usage, is trans. by means of a particle; so that one says, رَحُبَ بِكَ المَكَانُ [ The place was, or may the place be, spacious with thee ]: afterwards, by reason of frequency of usage, it became trans. by itself; and thus one said, رَحُبَتْكَ الدَّارُ [ The house, or abode, was, or may the house, or abode, be, spacious with thee, or to thee ]. (Msb.) ― -b3- [Hence the saying,] أَرَحُبَكُمُ الدُّخُولُ فِى طَاعَتِهِ (assumed tropical:) Was it proper, or allowable, for you [ to enter among his obeyers? i. e., to become obedient to him? ]: (S, K * TA:) referring to El-Kirmánee, (so in the S,) or Ibn-El-Kirmánee: (so in the TA:) mentioned by Kh, on the authority of Nasr Ibn-Seiyár; but he says, (S,) the verb thus used is anomalous; (S, K;) for a verb of the measure فَعُلَ is not trans., (K, TA,) accord. to the grammarians, (TA,) except with the tribe of Hudheyl, who, accord. to AAF, make it trans. (K, TA) when its meaning admits of its being so: (TA:) Kh mentions the phrase رَحُبَتْكُمُ الدَّارُ [meaning The house, or abode, was, or may the house, or abode, be, spacious with, or to, you ]; but it is thought that there is an ellipsis here, and that it is for رَحُبَتْ بِكُمُ الدَّارُ: and ElJelál Es-Suyootee mentions, on the authority of AAF, the saying رَحُبَ ا@للّٰهُ جَوْفَهُ, as meaning وَسَّعَهُ [i. e. May God make wide his belly ]: (TA:) [J says, app. quoting Kh,] there is no sound verb of the measure فَعُلَ that is trans. except this; but as to the unsound, there is a difference of opinion: accord. to Ks, قُلْتُهُ is originally قَوُلْتُهُ; but Sb says that this is not allowable, because it is trans.: (S:) Az says that رَحُبَتْكُمْ is not held to be allowable by the grammarians; and that Nasr is not an [approved] evidence.
