Prayer! ]; thus calling to it a second time: (T:) or his saying, (S, TA,) in the morning call to prayer, (S,) الصَّلَاةُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ النَّوْمٌ [ Prayer is better than sleep ]; (S, TA;) for he resumes his call by saying this after he has said, حَىَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاهْ [and حَىَّ عَلَى الفَلَاحٌ]; desiring the people to hasten to prayer: (TA:) or his saying, in the morning call to prayer, الصلاة خيرمن النوم twice, (T, K,) after having said, حَىّ علي الصلاه حىّ علي الفلاح: (T:) or the old تثويب was the saying of the مُؤَذِّن, in the morning call to prayer, الصلاة خير من النوم: and the modern, الصَّلَاهْ الصَّلَاهْ; or قَامَتْ قَامَتْ.

It also signifies The اـِقَامَة; (Mgh, K, TA;) [meaning, the chanting, by the مُبَلِّغُون, in a mosque, not by the مُؤَذِّن, the common words of the أَذَان, with the addition of قَدْ قَامَتِ الصَّلَاهْ ( The time of prayer has come ), pronounced twice after حىّ على الفلاح;] i. e. the اقامة of prayer: (IAth, TA:) and this is what is meant by the phrase, in a trad., اـِذَا ثُوِّبَ بِالصَّلَاةِ [ When the words of the اقامة are chanted ]. (IAth, Mgh, TA.) And The praying after the prayer divinely ordained. (Yoo, T, K.) You say, ثوّب, meaning He performed a supererogatory prayer after the prescribed; تثويب being only after the prescribed; being the praying after praying: (T:) and ↓ تثوّب signifies the same. (K.)

(T, Mgh, K.) ― -b2- [Accord. to my copy of the Mgh, it also signifies She (a camel) became what is termed نَاب: but I think that, in this instance, it is a mistranscription, for نَيَّبَتْ.] -A3- [See also the last sentence of the second paragraph of art. ثرب; and compare, with what is there said by SM, meanings assigned below to مَثَابٌ and مَثَابَةٌ.]

(S.) ― -b2- Curtains, and the like, are not [properly] called ثِيَاب; but أَمْتِعَةُ البَيْتِ: (Mgh, Msb:) though Es-Sarakhsee uses the phrase ثِيَابُ البَيْتِ. (Mgh.) تَعَلَّقَ بِثِيَابِ ا@للّٰهِ (tropical:) [ He clung to the curtains of the House of God ], i. e., to the curtains of the Kaabeh, is a tropical expression. (A.) ― -b3- Sometimes, ثَوْبٌ is used metonymically to signify (tropical:) A thing [ of any kind ] that veils, covers, or protects: as in the saying of a poet, كَثَوْبِ ا@بْنِ بِيضٍ وَقَاهُمْ بِهِ فَسَدَّ عَلَى السَّالِكِينَ السَّبِيلَا [ Like the means of protection adopted by Ibn-Beed: he protected them by it, and closed the way against the passengers ]. (TA.) Ibn-Beed was a wealthy merchant of the tribe of 'Ád, who hamstrung his she-camel upon a mountain-road, and stopped the way [to his abode] with it.

They mounted them, namely, the travellingcamels, (T,) with their [ light, or agile, ] bodies: [ and thou seest not anything like them, except ostriches scared away. ] (T, TA.)

You say, لِلّهِ ثَوْبَاهُ, i. e. (tropical:) To God be he [meaning his excellence ] attributed! [for nothing but what is excellent is to be attributed to God:] (A:) or it means لِلّهِ دَرُّهُ [ To God be attributed the good that hath proceeded from him! or his good deed! &c.: see arts. اله and در].

(TA.) ― -b8- وَثِيَابَكَ فَطَهِّرْ, in the Kur [lxxiv. 4], means And purify thy garments: (Abu-l-'Abbás, T:) or shorten thy garments; for the shortening them is a means of purity: (T:) or (assumed tropical:) put not on thy garments in a state of disobedience or unrighteousness: (I'Ab, T:) or (assumed tropical:) be not perfidious; for [figuratively speaking,] he who is so pollutes his garments: (Fr, T:) or, as some say, (assumed tropical:) purify thy heart: (Abu-l-'Abbás, T, K:) or (assumed tropical:) purify thyself (IKt, T, TA) from sins, or offences: (IKt, TA:) or (assumed tropical:) rectify thine actions, or thy conduct.
