Form 1سَجَرَهُ6 senses · 4 main
muḍāriʿـُيَفْعُلُmaṣdarسَجْرٌ

Core sense — he filled it with water; he heated the oven; he made it hang downgenerated

1.1he filled it with water—سَكَرَهُ

maṣdars سَجْرٌ, سُجُورٌ, سجّرهُ, and تَسْجِيرٌ.

[the torrent filled the wells]—سَجَرَ السَّيْلُ الآبَارَ
they became filled by the rain—سُجِرَتِ الثِّمَادُ

Said of a river, or channel for water, and of a vessel.

Said of the ثماد; see its singular ثَمَدٌ.

In the Qur'ān 81:6, some read وَ إِذَا ٱلْبِحَارُ سُجِرَتْ, others سُجِّرَتْ. Th, and Zj on the first reading, explain it as: and when the seas shall be filled.

ISd says there is no way of understanding this unless it means filled with fire; or it means: and when the seas shall overflow; or shall meet together and become one sea; or سُجِّرَتْ means shall flow forth, one into another, and so become one sea and be filled. Other explanations of these words of the Qur'ān are given below.

1.1.1he poured the water into his throat—سَجَرَ المَآءَ فِى حَلْقِهِ
1.1.2he heated the oven; he kindled a fire in it—سَجَرَ التَّنُّورَ

maṣdars سَجْرٌ and سجّرهُ, or the second has an intensive meaning.

Or: he filled it with firewood to heat it; or he heated it fully with fuel.

The words of the Qur'ān quoted above, و اذا البحار سُجِرَتْ, are said to mean: and when the seas shall be set on fire (El-Hasan El-Basree); or shall become without water (Katádeh); or shall be dried up by a fire being kindled in them; or shall be kindled and become fire; or shall be mixed together, dry up, and become fire (El-Ubbee) — an explanation resting on the licence to use a homonym in several of its meanings at once; or by “sea” hell is meant (Kaab).

[he stirred the fuel with the مسجرة]—سَجَرَ الوَقُودَ بِٱلْمِسْجَرَةِ
Lane cites “Bd in lxxxi. 6” — a commentary, not the verse; no modern number is given
1.2figurative · مجازthe she-camel prolonged her yearning cry after her young one—سَجَرَتِ النَّاقَةُ

maṣdars سَجْرٌ and سُجُورٌ. Also سجّرت, maṣdar تَسْجِيرٌ, in the same sense.

The cry is the حَنِين; she filled her mouth with it.

1.3he made it hang down—سَجَرَهُ

and also سجّرهُ and سَوْجَرَهُ — see the ism mafʿūl forms below.

Said of hair or the like. See also سَرَجَتْ شَعْرَهَا.

1.4he put a سَاجُور on, or around, his (a dog's) neck—سَجَرَهُ

Also سجّرهُ; maṣdars تَسْجِيرٌ and سَوْجَرَهُ.

Or: he bound the dog with a ساجور.
