maṣdarإِنٌى أَنْىٌ أُنِىٌّmuḍāriʿيَأْنِى يَئِينُ يَنِيلُ

Core sense — its time came, it drew near; it became ripe, or thoroughly cooked; it was lategenerated

1.1the time has come, or drawn near, for you to do such a thing—أَنَى لَكَ أَنْ تَفْعَلَ

and أَنَآءٌ, or, according to [some of the copies of] the M, أَنًى, which the TA says is the right form, or أَنًا, as written in the CK.

Said of a thing: its time came; or it drew near. Same as أَتَى وَقْتُهُ and جَآءَ أَنَاهُ, in Bd's explanation of a passage cited under أَنْ.

Or حَانَ, or أَنَى: it drew near; it became present.

the time of departure came, or drew near—أَنَى الرَّحِيلُ

Same as حَانَ وَقْتُهُ.

57:16
أَلَمْ يَأْنِ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَن تَخْشَعَ قُلُوبُهُمْ لِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ وَلَا يَكُونُوا۟ كَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ مِن قَبْلُ فَطَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْأَمَدُ فَقَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ ۖ وَكَثِيرٌ مِّنْهُمْ فَـٰسِقُونَ

Has not the Time arrived for the Believers that their hearts in all humility should engage in the remembrance of Allah and of the Truth which has been revealed (to them), and that they should not become like those to whom was given Revelation aforetime, but long ages passed over them and their hearts grew hard? For many among them are rebellious transgressors.

O ye who believe! Enter not the Prophet's houses,- until leave is given you,- for a meal, (and then) not (so early as) to wait for its preparation: but when ye are invited, enter; and when ye have taken your meal, disperse, without seeking familiar talk. Such (behaviour) annoys the Prophet: he is ashamed to dismiss you, but Allah is not ashamed (to tell you) the truth. And when ye ask (his ladies) for anything ye want, ask them from before a screen: that makes for greater purity for your hearts and for theirs. Nor is it right for you that ye should annoy Allah's Messenger, or that ye should marry his widows after him at any time. Truly such a thing is in Allah's sight an enormity.Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur’ān (1934)

Moderation; gentleness; deliberateness; a leisurely way of proceeding or behaving; patience, as the opposite of hastiness; and gravity, staidness, or calmness.

A noun from تَأَنَّى, and the same as تُؤَدَةٌ, رِفْقٌ, حِلْمٌ, and وَقَارٌ; also أنًى.

In the CK, كالاَنْىِ is wrongly put for كَالأَنَى.

1.1[O my sons, when you see a quality exciting admiration and approval in a man, do not cut off your hope of him, though he is in the people's estimation a bad man]—يَا بَنِىَّ إِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ خَلَّةً رَائِعَةً مِنْ رَجُلٍ فَلَا تَقْطَعُوا أَنَاتَكُمْ مِتْهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ عِنْدَ النَّاسِ رَجُلَ سَؤْءٍ

From the charge of 'Orweh to his sons.

Also hope. According to the TA it is written with kesr in this sense, but that is no doubt a mistake, probably caused by a faulty transcription.

2

A woman in whom there is a languor when rising, or standing up, and a gentle, or grave, way of behaving; or in whom there is a languor that keeps her from rising.

وَهْنَانَةٌ means the like.

Sb says that it is originally وَنَاةٌ, as أَحَدٌ is originally وَحَدٌ, from الوَنَى.

The people of El-Kūfeh say that it is only وَنَاةٌ; so says Lth.

Lth says that أَنَاةٌ, applied to a woman, means blessed, prospered, or abounding in good — as ADk also explains it — and forbearing, gentle, grave, staid, or calm, and agreeing with another in mind or opinion. The plural is أَنَواتٌ.

Or, as some say, it means a grave, staid, or calm woman, who does not clamour or use foul language.

Core sense — a word expressing disapproval, and treating a thing as unlikelygenerated

1[What, I, indeed?]—أَأَنَا إِنِيهْ

A word expressing disapproval, and the treating of a thing as remote or improbable.

Sb relates that an Arab of the desert who had settled in a town was asked, "Will you go forth when the desert has become plentiful in herbage?" and he said this, meaning "Do you say this to me when I am known to do so?" — as though he disapproved of their questioning him.

There is much difference of opinion about this word: according to some, it is made up of the redundant إِنْ and the meddeh of disapproval [followed by the ه of silence].

So in the Mughnee under إِنٌ. [See what is said of the redundant انْ in the present work.]
