1 أَلَقَ ذ , (JK, K, TA,) aor. اَلِقَ ; (K, TA;) or أَلِقَ, aor. اَلَقَ ; (CK; [in which it would seem, from what follows in this paragraph and the next, that the pret. is wrong, but that the aor. is right;]) inf. n. أَلْقٌ and اـِلَاقٌ; (JK, K;) It (lightning) lied; (AHeyth, K;) [i. e.] it was without rain. (JK.) ― -b2- See also 5. ― -b3- Also, أَلَقَ, aor. اَلَقَ , inf. n. أَلْقٌ, He lied; spoke falsely: whence the reading of Aboo-Jaafar and Zeyd Ibn-Aslam, [in the Kur xxiv. 14,] اـِذْ تَأْلَقُونَهُ تألّق [ When ye spoke it falsely with your tongues ]. (TA.)

5 تألّق ذ It (lightning) shone, gleamed, or glistened; as also ↓ ائتلق [written with the disjunctive alif اِيتَلَقَ]; (JK, S, IJ, K;) and so ↓ أَلَقَ, aor. اَلَقَ . (TA.)

(IAar.)

8 اـِاْتَلَقَ see 5, in two places.

اـِلْقٌ ألق ألقى الق لاق لقي A he-wolf: fem. with ة: (IAar, S, K:) and the fem. is also applied to a she-ape or monkey; the male of which is not called اـِلْقٌ, but قِرْدٌ, (S, K,) and رُبَّاحٌ. (S.) ― -b2- (assumed tropical:) Evil in disposition, applied to a man; and so with ة applied to a woman: and the latter, a [ demon of the kind called ] سِعْلَاة; because of its evil, or malignant, nature: (TA:) and a bold woman; (Lth, K;) for the same reason. (TA.)

اـِلَاقٌ ألاق الاق لاقى [an inf. n. (see 1) used as an epithet;] Lying, or fallacious, lightning; (K;) that has no rain; (JK, K;) as also ↓ أَلَّاقٌ: (K, * TA:) ↓ اآلِقٌ, likewise, is an epithet applied to lightning [in the same sense; or as signifying shining, gleaming, or glistening: see 1 and 5]: and so is ↓ أُلَّقٌ, as syn. with خُلَّبٌ [ that excites hope of rain, but deceives the expectation ].

1 أَلَكَ الِلّجَامَ ذ , (ISd, K,) [aor. اَلُكَ or اَلِكَ ,] inf. n. أَلْكٌ, (ISd, TA,) He (a horse) chewed, or champed, the bit; syn. عَلَكَهُ. (ISd, K.) One says, of a horse, يألكُ اللُّجُمَ He chews, or champs, the bits: but the verb commonly known is يَلُوكَ, or يَعْلُكُ. (Lth.) ― -b2- [Hence, accord. to some, (see أَلُوكٌ,)] أَلَكَ بَيْنَ القَوْمِ, (Msb, TA,) aor. اَلِكَ , inf. n. أَلْكٌ and أُلُوكٌ, (Msb,) He acted as a messenger (تَرَسَّلَ) between the people. (Msb, TA.) ― -b3- And أَلَكَهُ, aor. اَلِكَ , inf. n. أَلْكٌ, He conveyed, or communicated, to him a message. (Kr.) ― -b4- And أَلَكَ He sent. (IB in art. لوك.)

4 أَلِكْنِى ذ is from أَلَكَ signifying “he sent;” and is originally أَأْلِكْنِى; the [second] hemzeh being transposed and placed after the ل, it becomes أَلْئِكْنِى; then the hemzeh has its vowel transferred to the ل and is thrown out; as is done in the case of مَلَكٌ, which is originally مَأْلَكٌ, then مَلْأَكٌ, and then مَلَكٌ: (IB in art. لوك:) it means Be thou my messenger; and bear thou my message; and is often used by the poets. (S in art. لوك.) Accord. to IAmb, one says, أَلِكْنِى اـِلَى فُلَانٍ, meaning send thou me to such a one: [but I do not know any instance in which this meaning is applicable:] and the original form is أَلْئِكْنِى; or, if from الأَلُوكُ, the original form is أَأْلِكْنِى: and he also says that it means be thou my messenger to such a one. (TA.) One says also, أَلِكْنِى اـِلَيْهَا بِرِسَالَةٍ, which should properly mean Send thou me to her with a message: but it is an inverted phrase; since the meaning is, be thou my messenger to her with this message [or rather with a message ]: and أَلِكْنِى اـِلَيْهَا بِالسَّلَامِ i. e. convey thou, or communicate thou, to her my salutation; or be thou my messenger to her [ with salutation ]: and sometimes this [prep.] ب is suppressed, so that one says, أَلِكْنِى اـِلَيْهَا السَّلَامَ: sometimes, also, the person sent is he to whom the message is sent; as in the saying, أَلِكْنِى اـِلَيْكَ السَّلَامَ [virtually meaning receive thou my salutation; but literally] be thou my messenger to thyself with salutation. (TA.) Lh mentions the phrase أَلَكْتُهُ اـِلَيْهِ, with respect to a message, aor. أُلِيكُهُ, inf. n. اـِلَاكَهٌ; in which case, the hemzeh [in the aor. and inf. n.] is converted into a letter of prolongation. (TA in art. لأك.)

5 تَاَلَّكَ see أَلُوكٌ.

10 استألك مَأْلُكَتَهُ ذ He bore, or conveyed, his message; (K;) as also استلأك. (TA.)

أَلُوكٌ ذ A thing that is eaten [or rather chewed, as will be seen below]: so in the phrases, هذَا أَلُوكُ صِدْقٍ like عَلُوجُ صِدْقٍ and عَلُوكُ صِدْقٍ [ This is an excellent thing that is chewed ], and مَا تَلَوَّكْتُ بِأَلُوكٍ [or بِأَلُوكٍ ↓ مَا تَأَلَّكْتُ (K in art.

علج علج )] like مَا تَعَلَّجْتُ بِعَلُوجٍ [app. meaning I have not occupied myself in chewing with anything that is chewed ]. (TA.) ― -b2- [And hence, accord. to some,] A message, or communication sent from one person or party to another; (Lth, S, M, K, &c.; [in the CK, after الرِّسالَةُ, by which الأَلُوكُ is explained in the K &c., we find قِبَلَ المَلِكِ مُشْتَقٌّ منهُ, in which the first two words should be قِيلَ المَلَكُ, as in other copies of the K and in the TA; and الاُلُوكُ is erroneously put, in the CK, for الأَلُوكُ;]) said by Lth and ISd to be so called because it is [as it were] chewed in the mouth; (TA;) as also ↓ أَلُوكَهٌ (ISd, Sgh, K) and ↓ مَأْلُكَةٌ (Lth, S, Msb, K, &c.) and ↓ مَأْلَكَةٌ (Msb, K) and ↓ مَأْلُكٌ: (S, M, Msb. K, &c.:) accord. to Kr, (TA,) this last is the only word of the measure مَفْعُلٌ: (K, TA:) but accord. to Sb and Akh, there is no word of this measure: (TA:) [i. e. there is none originally of this measure:] other instances have been mentioned; namely, مَكْرُمٌ and مَعُونٌ [originally مَعْوُنٌ] and مَقْبُرٌ and مَهْلُكٌ and مَيْسُرٌ, which last occurs in the Kur [ii. 280], accord. to one reading, in the words فَنَظِرَةٌ اـِلَى مَيْسُرِهِ; but it is said that each of these, and مَأْلُكٌ also, may be regarded as originally with ة; or, accord. to AHei, each is [virtually, though not in the language of the grammarians,] a pl. of the same with ة; (MF, TA;) and Akh says the same with respect to مَكْرُمٌ and مَعُونٌ: (TA:) Seer says that each is curtailed of ة by poetic licence; but this assertion will not apply to مَيْسُرٌ, as it occurs in the Kur. (MF, TA.) ― -b3- أَلُوكٌ also signifies A messenger. (Ibn-'Abbád, K. [In the CK here follows, والمأْلُوْكُ والمَأْلُقُ: but the right reading is وَالمَأْلُوكُ المَأْلُوقُ, as in other copies and in the TA.])

أَلُوكَهٌ ذ : see أَلُوكٌ.

مَأْلَكٌ ذ is said to be the original form of مَلَكٌ [ An angel; so called because he conveys, or communicates, the message from God; (K, * TA, in art. لأك;)] derived from أَلُوكٌ; (Msb, K, TA; [but in the CK is a mistake here, pointed out above, voce أَلُوكٌ;]) so that the measure of مَلَكٌ is مَعَلٌ: (Msb:) مَلَكٌ is both sing. and pl.: Ks says that it is originally مَأْلَكٌ, from أَلُوكٌ signifying “a message;” then, by transposition, مَلْأَكٌ, a form also in use; and then, in consequence of frequency of usage, the hemzeh is suppressed, so that it becomes مَلَكٌ; but in forming the pl., they restore it to مَلْأَكٌ, saying مَلَائِكَةٌ, and مَلَائِكُ also: (S in art. ملك:) or, accord. to some, it is from لَأَكَ “he sent;” so that the measure of مَلَكٌ is مَفَلٌ: and there are other opinions respecting it: (Msb:) some say that its م is a radical: see art. ملك. (TA in art. لأك.)

مَأْلُكٌ ذ : see أَلُوكٌ.

مَأْلَكَةٌ ذ : see أَلُوكٌ.

مَأْلَكَةٌ ذ : see أَلُوكٌ.

(T.)

4 اآلَمْتُهُ اآلمته اآلمتة , (S, M, Msb, K,) inf. n. اـِيلَامٌ, (S, Msb,) I caused him pain or aching. (S, * M, Msb, K.)

You say, وَلَا أَلَمًا ↓ مَا أَجِدُ أَيْلَمَةً I do not find pain nor ache; i. e. وَجَعًا: so says AZ: and IAar says, ↓ أَيْلَمَةً وَلَا أَلَمَةً as meaning the same. (T.) And the Arabs say, لَأُبِيتَنَّكَ عَلَى ↓ أَيْلَمَةٍ, meaning I will assuredly bring upon thee [lit. make thee to pass the night in ] distress, or difficulty. (Sh.)

أَلِمٌ ذ Being in pain; having, or suffering, pain; aching. (M, K.)

1 أَلَهَ ذ , (S, and so in some copies of the K,) with fet-h, (S,) or أَلِهَ, (Mgh, Msb, and so in some copies of the K,) like تَعِبَ, aor. اَلَهَ , (Msb,) inf. n.

اـِلَاهَةٌ ألاهه اـلاه اـلاهه اـلاهة اـلٰه الاهه الاهة الآهة لاهى آهة (S, Msb, K) and أُلُوهَةٌ and أُلُوهِيَّPٌ, (K,) He served, worshipped, or adored; syn. عَبَدَ. (S, Msb, K.) Hence the reading of I'Ab, [in the Kur vii. 124,] وَيَذَرَكَ وَاـِلَاهَتَكَ [ And leave thee, and the service, or worship, or adoration, of thee; instead of وَاآلِهَتَكَ and thy gods, which is the common reading]; for he used to say that Pharaoh was worshipped, and did not worship: (S:) so, too, says, Th: and IB says that the opinion of I'Ab is strengthened by the sayings of Pharaoh [mentioned in the Kur lxxix. 24 and xxviii. 38], “I am your lord the most high,” and “I did not know any god of yours beside me.” (TA.) -A2- أَلِهَ, aor. اَلَهَ , (S, K,) inf. n. أَلَهٌ, (S,) He was, or became, confounded, or perplexed, and unable to see his right course; (S, K;) originally وَلِهَ.
