muḍāriʿـِيَفْعِلُ·ـُيَفْعُلُmaṣdarحَبْكٌ

Core sense — he bound it and made it fast; he wove it well; he cut itgenerated

1.1he made it firm, or compact, and made it wellاحتبكهُ

Muḍāriʿ حَبِكَ and حَبُكَ. He bound it, or tied it, and made it fast, or firm; he made it well; he wove it well and compactly, said of a piece of cloth; and he made the effect of the work in it beautiful.

she used to bind the waist-wrapper and make it fast, beneath the shift, in prayerكَانَتْ تَحْتَبِكَ تَحْتَ الدِرْعِ فِى الصَّلَاةِ

This verb has the same meaning; or, of anything: he made it firm, or compact, and made it well.

Said of ʿĀʾisheh in a tradition. The إِزَار is the waist-wrapper; from حُبْكَةٌ.

Or the reading is كَانَتْ فِى الصَّلَاةِ تَحْتَبِكُ بِإِزَارٍ فَوْقَ القَمِيصِ: she used, in prayer, to bind an ازار over the shirt.

It is said that اِحْتِبَاكٌ is also synonymous with اِحْتِبَآءٌ, on the authority of As: that is, that احتبك is synonymous with احتبى, and that احتبك بِإِزَارِهِ means احتبى or احتبى بِهِ وَ شَدَّهُ إِلَى يَدَيْهِ. So says Aboo-ʿObeyd, reporting As; but Az says this is a mistake: what As said was that الاحتياك with ى is synonymous with الاحتباء, as ISk relates.

I bound the enclosure for cattle with canes, or reeds, as the trellises of the grape-vine are bound with cordsحَبَكْتُ الحَظِيرَةَ بِقَصَبَاتِ كَمَ تُحْبَكُ عُرُوشُ الكَرْمِ بِالحِبَالِ

Or perhaps we should read بِقُضْبَانٍ, that is, with twigs. See also the last sentence of this entry.

[This is the usage of the present day.]

1.2the act of cutting; and the smiting, or severing, of the neckحَبْكٌ

Or: he cut the flesh above the bone with the sword; or he severed his neck with the sword; or he struck him with the sword.

Muḍāriʿ حَبِكَ and حَبُكَ.

This, and الحِبْكِ, الحَبَكِ, الحُبَكِ, الحُبُكِ, الحُبِكِ, الحِبَكِ, الحِبُكِ, and الحِبِكِ, are various readings in the Qur'ān 51:7.

الحُبْك is a contraction of الحُبُك, of the dialect of Benoo-Temeem.

الحِبْك is a contraction of الحِبِك.

الحَبَك is as though its singular, or ism waḥda, were حَبَكَةٌ.

الحُبَك is as though its singular were حُبْكَةٌ.

الحُبُك is the common reading, and is the plural of حِبَاكٌ or of حَبِيكَةٌ.

الحُبِك is of a form not used in any other instance.

الحِبَك is like النِّعَم [as though its singular were حِبْكَةٌ].

الحِبُك is said to be a mixture of two dialectal variants.

الحِبِك is of a rare measure, like إِبِلٌ and the like.

1figurative · مجازthe part of the waist-wrapper where it is tied round the waist, folded, or doubledحُجْزَةٌ

The إِزَار is the waist-wrapper.

Hence الاِحْتِبَاكُ, meaning the binding, or tying, of the ازار; or the folds of the حُجْزَة let down in front of the wearer, so that he can carry something in them.

Also an ازار itself; and so حِبَاكٌ.

Also the thong that connects the head to the pieces of wood called غَرَاضِيف of the camel's saddle called قَتَب and of the saddle called رَحْل; and so حِبَاكٌ.

In the CK the word for the thong is given erroneously as القِدَّةُ.

Nounحِبَاكٌ5 senses · 1 main

Core sense — streaks, or lines, in sand; an enclosure of canes; the selvages of a garmentgenerated

1

See حُبْكَةٌ, in three places.

1.1

Also an enclosure for cattle made with canes, or reeds, put crosswise and then bound, or tied.

Or perhaps we should read بِقُضْبَانٍ, that is, with twigs.

Or pieces of wood put together like a حَظِيرَة and then bound in the middle with a cord, or rope, that joins them together.

1.2

The كِفَاف [that is, the selvages, or the like] of a garment, or piece of cloth.

1.3

Ibn-ʿAbbād: the black threads with which the borders, or extremities, of a cloth of the kind called لِبْد are sewed.

1.4

A streak, or line, in sand and the like; and so حَبِيكَةٌ. Plural of the former حُبُكٌ, and of the latter حَبَائِكٌ or حُبُكً.

The plural of حِبَاكٌ means the ridges of sand [that are formed by the wind]; the ripples of sand, and of water, when moved by the wind; plural of حِبَاكٌ and of حَبِيكَةٌ.

حُبُكُ المَآءِ means المُتَكَسِّرُ مِنْهُ [the ripples of water]; and so حُبُكُ الشَّعَرِ الجَعْدِ [the rimples, or wavy forms, of crisp hair, looking as though it were crimped]; and the like of other things.

Fr says, الحُبُكُ تَكَسُّرُ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ كَالرَّمْلِ إِذَا مَرَّتْ بِهِ الرِّيحُ السَّاكِنَةُ وَ المَآءِ القَائِمِ إِذَا مَرَّتْ بِهِ الرِّيحُ وَ دِرْعُ الحَدِيدِ لَهَا حُبُكٌ أَيْضًا وَ الشَّعْرَةُ الجَعْدَةُ تَكَسُّرُهَا حُبُكٌ. [On the حُبُك of a coat of mail, see what follows.]

In the same way حَبِيكٌ, حَبَائِكُ, and حُبُكٌ, all as plurals of حَبِيكَةٌ — or rather حَبِيكٌ is a collective noun — mean the streaks of locks of hair, or of a helmet, and likewise of sand, such as are made by the wind. In the CK البَيْضَةُ is erroneously put for البَيْضَةِ.

The حُبُك of the sky, singular حَبِيكَةٌ, are the tracks of the stars.

حَبَائِكٌ also means streaks, or tracks, in the sky; and the heavens, because the paths of the stars are in them.

حُبُكٌ means the streaks of a mountain; and حُبُكُ دِرْعٍ the rows of rings of a coat of mail.

In a passage cited above it seems to be implied that it means the rimples, or folds, of a coat of mail; or the scales of silver with which a coat of mail is ornamented, likened to the scales on the back of a fish by being termed the حَرْشَفَ of a coat of mail.

Ibn-ʿAbbād: حِبَاكُ الحَمَامِ is the blackness of the part above the wings of the pigeon.

The phrase رَأْسُهُ حُبُكٌ, in a description of Ed-Dejjāl [or Antichrist], means: the hair of his head is rimpled because of its crispness, like stagnant water and sand when the wind blows upon them, so that they become rippled and marked with streaks.

Or, as some say, it is مُحَبَّكُ الشَّعَرِ, as in the K, with the same meaning; or crisp-haired: or حُبُكُ الشَّعِرَ, meaning the same: or إِنَّ شَعَرَهُ حُبُكٌ حُبُكٌ, or رَأْسُهُ حُبُكٌ حُبُكٌ.

In the phrase in the Qur'ān 51:7, وَ السَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ الحُبُكِ, الحبك is said to mean the tracks of the stars, and the milky way. Er-Rāghib: ideal tracks. Or streaks of clouds; or beautiful طَرَائِق [generally understood here as streaks, or the like, but the word may also be rendered stages, one above another, to the number of seven]. Mujáhid: structures, or construction. I ʿAb: beautiful construction.
