maṣdarإِصْعَادٌ
Core sense — he went up through the land; he descended into the valleygenerated
4.1.1he went through the land towards a land higher than the one he came from—اصعد فِى الأَرْضِ
Taken from Lth's statement that اصعد, means he went towards a slope, or a river, or a valley, higher than the one he came from.
he went up, or upwards, through the countries, or lands—اصعد فِى البِلَادِ
he journeyed from one region, or town, to another—اصعد مِنْ بَلَدِ كَذَا إِلَى بَلَدِ كَذَا
he journeyed, or went, towards Nejd, El-Hijáz and El-Yemen—اصعد
From a lower region, or town, to a higher one.
. [Or: towards a higher region.]
he journeyed, or went, towards El-'Irák, Syria and 'Omán—اِنْحَدَرَ
ISk, on the authority of 'Omárah. Or, according to Aboo-Sakhr, the former means he journeyed towards the Kibleh, and the latter that he journeyed towards El-'Irák; or the former means he came to Mekkeh, but this is a defective explanation.
مُصْعَدٌ also is used as a maṣdar of this verb, and مُنْحَدَرٌ as a maṣdar of انحدر.
he commenced a journey, or went forth—اصعد
. As from Mekkeh, and from El-Koofeh to Khurásán, and the like; or he commenced a journey, or the like, in any direction.
he returned, from any town or country—انحدر
he went away and journeyed through the land, in any direction—اصعد فِى الأَرْضِ
Ibn-'Arafeh.
Or فى البِلَادِ.
the ship spread her sail and was carried along upwards by the wind—اصعدت السَّفِينَةُ
Maṣdar إِصْعَادٌ or صعّدت. [Apparently meaning up a river or the like.]
4.1.2he descended, or went down, into the valley, from the side the torrent comes from—اصعد فِى الوَادِى
Also صعّد فِيهِ; maṣdar تَصْعِيدٌ and اِصَّعَّدَ, but this last is disapproved by Az.
he descended, or went down, into the land—اصعد فِى الأَرْضِ
he descended the mountain—صعّد فِى الجَبَلِ
He does not go to the bottom of the valley.
It also means he ascended it.
Akh cites these words of 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Hemmám Es-Saloolee: [I descending, or going down, at one time through the countries, and at another ascending, or going up]
shāhidأُصَعِّدُ طَوْرًا فِى البِلَادِ وَأُفْرِعُ
.
IB says this is what led Akh to explain صعّد as he did, but it proves nothing, because إِفْرَاعٌ has two opposite meanings, that of إِصْعَادٌ and that of اِنْحِدَارٌ. According to AZ, by أُصَعِّدُ the poet means I ascending, or going up, to high places, and by أُفْرِعُ the opposite.
4.1.3he advanced towards another—اصعد
4.1.4
It also means he went far; synonym أَبْعَدَ.
4.1.5he exerted himself violently in running—اصعد فِى العَدْوِ
4.2
اصعد as a transitive verb: see form 2, in two places.
4.3she became such as is called صَعُود—اصعدت
Said of a camel.
4.3.1I made the she-camel become such as is called صَعُود—أَصْعَدْتُ النَّاقَةَ
Also صَعَدْتُهَا [probably imperfectly transcribed for صَعَّدْتُهَا].

There did Allah give you one distress after another by way of requital, to teach you not to grieve for (the booty) that had escaped you and for (the ill) that had befallen you. For Allah is well aware of all that ye do.

: see 1. [Hence,] اصعد فِى الأَرْضِ He went through the land towards a land higher than the other [from which he came]: (A, TA:) taken from the saying of Lth, that اصعد , inf. n. إِصْعَادٌ , signifies He went towards a declivity, or a river, or a valley, higher than the other [from which he came]. (TA.) And اصعد فِى البِلَادِ He went up, or upwards, through the countries, or lands. (AA, Msb.) And اصعد مِنْ بَلَدِ كَذَا إِلَى بَلَدِ كَذَا He journeyed [upwards] from such a region, or town, to such another region, or town; from one that was lower to one that was higher. (Msb.) [And hence,] اصعد , inf. n. إِصْعَادٌ , He journeyed, or went, towards Nejd, and El-Hijáz, and El-Yemen: [or towards a higher region:] and اِنْحَدَرَ signifies “ he journeyed, or went, towards El-'Irák, and Syria, and 'Omán: ” (ISk, on the authority of 'Omárah:) or the former, he journeyed, or went, towards the Kibleh: and the latter, “ he journeyed, or went, towards El-'Irák: ” (Aboo- Sakhr, T:) or the former, he came to Mekkeh; (K;) but this is a defective explanation: (TA:) and مُصْعَدٌ , also, is used as an inf. n. of this verb; and مُنْحَدَرٌ , as an inf. n. of انحدر : (T, TA:) or اصعد , inf. n. إِصْعَادٌ , he commenced a journey, or went forth; as from Mekkeh, and from ElKoofeh to Khurásán, and the like: (Fr:) or he commenced a journey, or the like, in any direction: and انحدر signifies “ he returned, from any town or country. ” (Ibn-'Arafeh.) And اصعد فِى الأَرْضِ , (Akh, S, K,) or فى البِلَادِ , (Akh accord. to the T,) He went away, and journeyed, through the land, (Akh, S, K,) or through the countries, (Akh, T,) in any direction. (L.) And اصعدت السَّفِينَةُ , inf. n. إِصْعَادٌ ; (L;) or صعّدت ; (A;) The ship spread her sail, and was borne along by the wind, (A, L,) upwards [app. meaning up a river or the like]. (L.) اصعد فِى الوَادِى ; (Akh, S, L, K;) and صعّد فِيهِ , inf. n. تَصْعِيدٌ ; (Akh, S, Msb, K;) and اِصَّعَّدَ , (Lth,) but this last is disapproved by Az; (TA;) He descended, or went down, into the valley, (Akh, S, L, Msb, K,) from the part whence the torrent comes; not going to the bottom of the valley: and in like manner, اصعد فِى الأَرْضِ He descended, or went down, into the land: (L:) and صعّد فِى الجَبَلِ He descended the mountain; as well as he ascended it. (IB, L.) Akh cites the following words of 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Hemmám Es-Saloolee, 1 (S, L,) as meaning I descending, or going down, at one time, through the countries, and [another time] ascending, or going up: this, says IB, is what induced Akh to explain صعّد as he has done; but it presents no proof, because إِفْرَاعٌ has two contr. significations, that of إِصْعَادٌ and that of اِنْحِدَارٌ : and accord. to AZ, by أُصَعِّدُ the poet means I ascending, or going up, to high places; and by أُفْرِعُ , the contrary. (L.) أُصَعِّدُ طَوْرًا فِى البِلَادِ وَأُفْرِعُ اصعد also signifies He advanced towards another. (L.) And He went far; syn. أَبْعَدَ . (Ham p. 22.) And اصعد فِى العَدْوِ He exerted himself vehemently in running. (L.) اصعد as trans.: see 2, in two places. اصعدت She (a camel) became such as is termed صَعُود [q. v.]. (S, L, K.) And أَصْعَدْتُ النَّاقَةَ , (S, L, K,) and صَعَدْتُهَا , [probably imperfectly transcribed for صَعَّدْتُهَا ,] (L,) I made the she-camel to be, or became, such as is termed صَعُود . (IAar, S, L, K.)
