maṣdarتِيهٌmuḍāriʿيَتِيهُ يَتُوهُ يَطِيحُ

Core sense — he lost his way, he became perplexed; he behaved proudly, or vainlygenerated

1.1his ship deviated from the right course with himتَاهَتْ بِهِ سَفِينَتُهُ

maṣdar تِيهٌ, تَيْهٌ and تَيَهَانٌ.

Synonymous with تَاهَ, whose muḍāriʿ is يَتُوهُ [and with طَاحَ, muḍāriʿ يَطِيحُ and يَطُوحُ].

He deviated from, lost, or missed the right way; he lost his way, in the desert. He became confounded or perplexed, unable to see his right course. He went away in the land, confounded and unable to see his right course.

[Or his mind, or intellect, was, or became, disordered, confused, or unsound: see تَاهَ in art. توه.]

And he perished; see art. توه.

your eye, or your sight, passed me overتَاهَ عَنِّى بَصَرُكَ

Aboo-Turáb: synonymous with تَخَطَّى.

he looked at a thing continually, or continuouslyتَاهَ بَصَرَهُ

In the CK this is erroneously written قَصْرُهُ. It also signifies تَافَ, written نافَ in the CK. The explanation is 'Arrám's, and the meaning is فِى دَوَامٍ, apparently as one confounded and perplexed, unable to see aright. Aboo-Turáb.

1.1.1he behaves proudly, or conceitedly, or vainly, towards his peopleهُوَ يَتِيهُ عَلَى قَوْمِهِ

Also تَاهَ, maṣdar تِيهٌ and تِيَهٌ, said to be a dialectal variant of this, though the point is doubtful; [like تَاهَ, whose muḍāriʿ is يَتُوهُ].

He magnified himself; he behaved proudly, haughtily, or insolently. He affected to be praised for, or gloried in, what he did not possess; that is, he became conceited or vain-glorious, or he went beyond due bounds in elegance of mind, manners, address, speech, person, attire and the like, and claimed superiority in it out of pride. Or rather: he was, or became, vain; he behaved vainly.

Er-Rāghib distinguishes between مُعْجَبٌ and تَائِهٌ: the معجب believes himself only indecisively in the opinion or judgment he forms of himself, on evidence outweighed in probability, whereas the تائه believes himself decisively. See art. عجب.

Nounتِينٌ4 senses · 1 main

Core sense — the fig tree, and its fruit, the fig; the anusgenerated

1the tree of the fig [or common fig; ficus carica]بَلَس
or the fig itselfبلس

Or both: a well-known kind of tree, and its fruit; or the fruit only, a well-known thing that is eaten.

Fresh and ripe it is the most approved of fruits, the most nutritious and the least flatulent; drawing, dissolvent, opening obstructions of the liver and spleen, and laxative; and eating much of it engenders lice.

[The last word in this explanation in the K is مُقْمِلٌ, which I render in agreement with the TK, having found no authoritative explanation of it; but in my own opinion the meaning is fattening, since قَمِلَ means "he became fat after being lean", and what follows confirms my opinion.]

It is a pleasant fruit with nothing superfluous in it, a nice food, quick of digestion, and a very useful medicine: it is laxative, dissolves phlegm, purifies the kidneys, removes sand of the bladder, opens obstructions of the liver and spleen, and fattens the body. It is also said, in a tradition, that it stops hemorrhoids and is good for the gout.

AHn says there are many kinds: that of the desert, that of the cultivated land, that of the plains, and that of the mountains; and it is abundant in the land of the Arabs. He adds, on the authority of an Arab of the desert, of the Saráh, that in the Saráh it is very abundant and allowed to be taken freely, and the people there eat it fresh, and also dried and stored.

The word is Arabic. [A collective generic noun.] Ism waḥda with ة.

This is what is meant in the Qur'ān [95:1], where it is said وَالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ, according to I'Ab and most of the interpreters.

on this sense Or the two words mean two mountains of Syria, or of the Holy Land, that produce the two fruits so named; or, according to a Syrian interpreter, certain mountains extending from Hulwán to Hemdán, and the mountains of Syria; or Damascus and Jerusalem; or the mosque of Damascus and that of Jerusalem; or two mosques in Syria. According to AHn, the former is the name of a mountain in the country of Ghatafán, but there is no mountain so called in Syria.

1.1[the sycamore-fig; ficus sycomorus, also called the Egyptian fig]تِينُ الجُمَّيْزِ

One of the kinds of تِين; described under جُمَّيْزٌ.

1.2

[التِّينُ الإِفْرَنْجِىُّ and التِّينُ الشَّوْكِىُّ are names used in the present day for the Indian fig, or prickly pear; cactus opuntia. Forskål (Flora Aegypt. Arab. p. 67) applies the former name to the cochineal Indian fig; cactus cochinillifer.]

1.3figurative · مجاز — inferredthe anusالتِّينَةُ

Opposed to الجُمَّيْزَةُ in the sense of the female genitals.
