Core sense — the collar-bone, the bone between the chest-pit and the shouldergenerated
The collar-bone: the bone between the pit at the uppermost part of the chest and the shoulder, on either side, joining those two parts, of a man and of others; each of the two prominent bones in the uppermost part of the chest, running from the head of each shoulder to the edge of that pit.
And sometimes, as in the phrase given below, the fore part of the حَلْق [here apparently meaning the throat], at the uppermost part of the chest, the place into which the soul rises [when one is at the point of death]; for النَّفَسُ in copies of the K I read النَّفْسُ.
Plural تراقٍ and ترائِق, the latter formed by transposition. Fr says that some use the latter plural for the former.
The singular is of the measure فَعْلُوَةٌ, as is shown by the verb mentioned above, though it is repeated in the K in art. رقو. One should not say تُرْقُوَةٌ, with damm to the ت.
In the Qur'ān 75:26; النَّفْسُ is understood, so the sense is: or, the parts of the throat next the chest. Said when one is at the point of death.
Yea, when (the soul) reaches to the collar-bone (in its exit),Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur’ān (1934)
Core sense — an antidote for poisons, theriac; a compound medicine; winegenerated
An arabicized word, from the Greek, or originally Persian, also written and pronounced دِرْيَاقٌ and طِرْيَاقٌ; or, as some say, from الرِّيقُ, because it contains the spittle of serpents, and in that case it is Arabic [in origin].
[Theriac; also called treacle;] an antidote for poisons: a compound medicine made up of many ingredients, at most ninety or ninety-six and at least sixty-four, sometimes including the flesh of vipers and that of asses, which make it forbidden and impure; or, as some say, it is forbidden without restriction. It is a remedy against the bite or sting of rapacious venomous reptiles and the like, and against poisonous drinks. [I leave out some useless and absurd details given about the compounds so named.]
Plural تَرَايِيقُ.
In art. فرق; vulgarly called تِرْيَاقٌ فَارُوقِىٌّ. [A principal ingredient of this kind is the best sort of Jews-pitch, that is, asphaltum, also called mumia, and in Arabic مُومِيَا (see De Sacy's “Rel. de l'Égypte par Abdallatif,” p. 274); and this mumia by itself is called التِّرْيَاقُ التُّرْكِىُّ.]
[It is sometimes applied to treacle, meaning the sirop that drains from sugar.] It is also said to be applied to the فَادْزَهْر [or Bezoar-stone], which is likewise called مَسُوسٌ.
The word bears this meaning too, because wine dispels anxiety, or because it is a remedy for anxieties; for the same reason it is also called صَابُونُ الهُمُومِ.
تِرْيَاقَةٌ: see above.
