Core sense — an even, or level, place; even sand; a mound of earthgenerated

1even, or level, groundأَرْضٌ دَكٌّ

An even, or level, place; [and so أَدَكُّ, as is shown by the explanation of its feminine in this paragraph;] or land, or ground, broken and made even.

Plural دُكُوكٌ.

he made it, and shall make it, even, or levelجَعَلَهُ دَكًّا

In the Qur'ān 7:139 and 18:98: even, or level (AZ, Az, Ibn-ʿArafeh), without any hill (Ibn-ʿArafeh, this addition relating to the first instance); or crumbled.

Akh: دَكًّا may be a maṣdar here, as though the meaning were دَكَّهُ دَكًّا [see form 1]; or a word may be left out, the meaning being جَعَلَهُ ذَا دَكٍّ.

Another reading is جَعَلَهُ دَكَّآءَ, meaning in the first instance a hill rising from the ground like the دَكَّةَ; or meaning جَعَلَهُ أَرْضًا دَكَّآءَ, that is, he made it even, or level, ground, because the word جَبَل [to which دكّآء virtually relates] is masculine.

1.1even, or level, sandدَكَّةٌ

Also, [as a noun,] even, or level, sand.

Plural of either, as analogy requires, دِكَاكٌ.

In some copies of the K, التكّ is put by mistake for التّل.

When Moses came to the place appointed by Us, and his Lord addressed him, He said: "O my Lord! show (Thyself) to me, that I may look upon thee." Allah said: "By no means canst thou see Me (direct); But look upon the mount; if it abide in its place, then shalt thou see Me." When his Lord manifested His glory on the Mount, He made it as dust. And Moses fell down in a swoon. When he recovered his senses he said: "Glory be to Thee! to Thee I turn in repentance, and I am the first to believe."
