muḍāriʿـِيَفْعِلُmaṣdarتَمَامٌ

Core sense — it was, or became, complete, or full; he reached it; he accomplished itgenerated

1.1his make was, or became, complete; he became fully formed, or full-grown—تَمَّ خَلْقُهُ

maṣdar تَمَامٌ or تِمَامٌ or both, and تُمَامٌ, تَمَامَةٌ, تِمَامَةٌ, تمُّ, تَمٌّ, and تُمٌّ; of these last three the first is said to be the most chaste.

[The thing was, or became, complete, entire, whole, or full, that is, free from deficiency; and sometimes, the thing was, or became, consummate, or perfect, a meaning more properly expressed by كَمَلَ.]

According to the author of the K, as is shown in art. كمل, and according to some others, تَمَامٌ and كَمَالٌ are synonymous; but several authors distinguish them. The former is said to mean that a thing is free from deficiency, and the latter to mean تمام and something more, for instance goodliness, and excellence, essential or accidental; though each is sometimes used in the sense of the other.

Or, as some say, the former necessarily implies previous deficiency, but the latter does not. Or, according to El-Harállee, the latter means the attaining of the utmost point, or degree, in every respect. Or, as Ibn-El-Kemál says, when one says of a thing كَمَلَ, he means that what was desired of it became realized. [See also تَمَامٌ below.]

the thing became strong and hard—تَمَّ الشَّىْءُ
the moon became full, so that it shone brightly—تَمَّ القَمَرُ

Said of a child or the like, and of a man.

Probably derived from the sense just given.

Also اتمّ.

the days of her gestation became complete—تَمَّتْ أَيَّامُ حَمْلِهَا

Said of one who is pregnant.

1.1.1he reached, or came to, such a thing—تَمَّ إِلَى كَذَا

For instance, eminence or nobility, or the means of acquiring eminence or nobility.

1.1.2he went to, or made for, such a place—تَمَّ إِلَى مَوْضِعِ كَذَا

Also اتمّ إِلَيْهِ.

Aboo-Dhu-eyb says:

shāhid
فَبَاتَ بِجَمْعٍ ثُمَّ تَمَّ إِلَى مِنًى

[which may be rendered: And he passed the night in Jemʿ (a name of El-Muzdelifeh); then he went to Minè, there completing the ceremonies of the pilgrimage.]

ISd says: I think that by تمّ [or rather تمّ الى منى] he means he completed his pilgrimage.

1.1.3

تَمَّ بِهِ and تَمَّ عَلَيْهِ: see their synonym اتمّهُ (Form 4).

1.1.4he performed it, he accomplished it—تَمَّ عَلَيْهِ

Said of an affair, a fast, or a purpose, or intention.

1.1.5he persevered in refusal, dislike, or disapproval—تَمَّ عَلَى الإبَآءِ

And: he persevered in it. Also تَمَمَ عَلَيْهِ, without teshdeed, as in the phrase إِنْ تَمَمَتْ عَلَى مَا أُرِيدُ [If she perseveres in what I want], which occurs in a tradition; but IAth says that the verb there means تَمَّمَتْ.

1.2it was broken—تُمَّ
1.2.1

Same in meaning as بلغ [apparently بُلِغَ, that is, he was worn out, distressed, exhausted, or wearied].

وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقًا وَعَدْلًا ۚ لَّا مُبَدِّلَ لِكَلِمَـٰتِهِۦ ۚ وَهُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

The word of thy Lord doth find its fulfilment in truth and in justice: None can change His words: for He is the one who heareth and knoweth all.

7:137
وَأَوْرَثْنَا ٱلْقَوْمَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا۟ يُسْتَضْعَفُونَ مَشَـٰرِقَ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَغَـٰرِبَهَا ٱلَّتِى بَـٰرَكْنَا فِيهَا ۖ وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ ٱلْحُسْنَىٰ عَلَىٰ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ بِمَا صَبَرُوا۟ ۖ وَدَمَّرْنَا مَا كَانَ يَصْنَعُ فِرْعَوْنُ وَقَوْمُهُۥ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْرِشُونَ

And We made a people, considered weak (and of no account), inheritors of lands in both east and west, - lands whereon We sent down Our blessings. The fair promise of thy Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because they had patience and constancy, and We levelled to the ground the great works and fine buildings which Pharaoh and his people erected (with such pride).

7:142
وَوَٰعَدْنَا مُوسَىٰ ثَلَـٰثِينَ لَيْلَةً وَأَتْمَمْنَـٰهَا بِعَشْرٍ فَتَمَّ مِيقَـٰتُ رَبِّهِۦٓ أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً ۚ وَقَالَ مُوسَىٰ لِأَخِيهِ هَـٰرُونَ ٱخْلُفْنِى فِى قَوْمِى وَأَصْلِحْ وَلَا تَتَّبِعْ سَبِيلَ ٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ

We appointed for Moses thirty nights, and completed (the period) with ten (more): thus was completed the term (of communion) with his Lord, forty nights. And Moses had charged his brother Aaron (before he went up): "Act for me amongst my people: Do right, and follow not the way of those who do mischief."

11:119
إِلَّا مَن رَّحِمَ رَبُّكَ ۚ وَلِذَٰلِكَ خَلَقَهُمْ ۗ وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَةُ رَبِّكَ لَأَمْلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنَ ٱلْجِنَّةِ وَٱلنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ

Except those on whom thy Lord hath bestowed His Mercy: and for this did He create them: and the Word of thy Lord shall be fulfilled: "I will fill Hell with jinns and men all together."

Core sense — shorn goats' hair, camels' hair, or wool for completing a webgenerated

1what is given, of wool or camels' hair, for a man to complete the weaving of his كِسَآء with—تُمَّةٌ

This and تُمَّةٌ [the former written in the CK تَمَّةٌ] are the singulars of تِمَمٌ and تُمَمٌ, or تَمَمٌ, which ISd says he thinks to be an ism jamʿ; or تَمٌّ is the ism jamʿ.

These plurals and the ism jamʿ mean shorn crops of شَعَر [meaning goats' hair], and of camels' hair, and of wool — that with which a woman, or a man, completes her, or his, web.

In the CK, جِزَر, for which Golius appears to have found حِرْز, since he rendered it “amuletum”, and Freytag has done the same.

It is mentioned also in the K, but there, by misplacement, made to relate to تِمٌّ instead of تِمَّةٌ.

Or of goats' hair; and so also تُمَّى.

Nounتَمِيمَةٌ1 sense

Core sense — a kind of amulet hung on a person; a speckled beadgenerated

1

A kind of amulet which is hung upon a human being; forbidden to be worn. Or a kind of bead.

El-Kutabee: some wrongly imagine it to be the same as مَعَاذَةٌ; but as for the مَعَاذَات that are inscribed with something from the Qur'ān, or with the names of God, in these there is no harm.

A speckled bead, black speckled with white, or the reverse, which is strung upon a thong and tied to the neck. It is the singular of تَمَائِمُ, and the ism waḥda of تَمِيمٌ.

تَمَائِمُ means certain beads which the Arabs of the desert used to hang upon their children, to repel, as they asserted, the evil eye.

Or the تَمِيمَة is, according to some, a necklace upon which thongs and amulets are put: or a necklace of thongs: and the word is sometimes applied to the amulet that is hung upon the necks of children. But whoever makes تمائم mean thongs is in error.

El-Farezdak uses the phrase سُيُورُ التَّمَائِمِ, because they are beads which are perforated, and into which thongs or strings are inserted whereby they are suspended.

Az says: I have not found among the Arabs of the desert any difference of opinion about the تميمة, as to its being the bead itself.

But according to En-Nakhaʿee, the Prophet disapproved of everything hung upon a child or a grown person, and said that all such things were تمائم.

The تميمة is said to be so called because by it the condition of the child is made complete.

One who seeks, demands, or requests, wool, or camels' hair, to complete therewith the weaving of his كِسَآء : so in a poem of Aboo-Duwád, (S,) where he says, 1 i. e., And they (referring to certain camels) are, in respect of the care that is taken of them, and in smoothness, like the eggs [in the places where the ostrich has deposited them in the sand]; there may not be found upon them to be given from them, to one who demands a تِمَّة , [even so much as] a tie for a water-skin; for they have become fat, and cast their hair. (TA.) فَهْىَ كَالبَيْضِ فِى الأَدَاحِىِّ لَا يُوْ | هَبُ مِنْهَا لِمُسْتَتِمٍّ عِصَامُ
