Form 1طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ8 senses · 1 main
muḍāriʿـُيَفْعُلُ·ـَيَفْعَلُmaṣdarطُلُوعٌ

Core sense — the sun rose, or appeared; he ascended the mountain; he came forthgenerated

1.1it rose, or appeared—طَلَعَ

[despite the guttural letter], and مَطْلَعٌ and مَطْلِعٌ. The last two are both used as maṣdars, and also as nouns of place [and of time], but the first of them is preferable, on the ground of analogy, as a maṣdar, and the second as a noun of place or of time.

Said of the sun; and in the same way of the moon, and of a star or asterism.

the Pleiades rose—طَلَعَت

اِطَّلَعَ is used in the same way, and أَطْلَعَ stands for أَطْلَعَتِ الثُّرَيَّا, which has this meaning; so in a verse of El-Kumeyt, where the verb may, consistently with the metre, be a mistranscription for اطَّلَعَت.

أَطْلَعَ is synonymous with طَلَعَ in the saying of Ru-beh: [As though it, or he, were a star in the midst of clouds, that had risen]

shāhid
كَأَنَّهُ كَوْكَبُ غَيْمٍ أَطْلَعَا
I will come to you every day in which the sun rises—آتِيكَ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ طَلَعَتْهُ الشَّمْسُ

That is, طَلَعَتْ فِيهِ.

the sun has risen; and may it not have risen with the soul of any one of us—طَلَعَتِ الشَّمْسُ وَلَا تَطْلُعُ بِنَفْسِ أَحَدٍ مِنَّا

Said in a prayer; that is, may none of us have died at its rising. The future is put in the place of the past tense.

1.1.1figurative · مجاز — inferredit appeared, coming up from the upper part of a thing—طَلَعَ

Said of anything that shows itself from the upper part of a thing, or comes up out of a thing and appears. The Ksh says that الطُّلُوعُ means appearing by rising, or by becoming raised up.

the tooth of the child showed its point—طَلَعَتْ سِنُّ الصَّبِىِّ
the seed-produce began to come up, and showed its sprouting forth—طَلَعَ الزَّرْعُ

.

the seed-produce appeared—أَطْلَعَ الزَّرْعُ
the plants, or herbage, of the land came forth—أَطْلَعَ نَبْتُ الأَرْضِ
the trees put forth their leaves—أَطْلَعَ الشَّجَرُ
the palm-tree, or the palm-trees, put forth the spadix—طَلَعَ النَّخْلُ

maṣdar طُلُوعٌ and أَطْلَعَ, or أَطْلَعَتِ النَّخْلَةُ. What is put forth is the طَلْع [q. v.]. طلّع, maṣdar تَطْلِيعٌ, is used in the same sense. These verbs, in this sense, seem to be derived from the noun طَلْعٌ, though that is plainly from طَلَعَ.

1.1.2figurative · مجاز — inferredI filled the drinking-vessel for him until it nearly overflowed at the sides—مَلَأْتُ لَهُ القَدَحَ حَتَّى يَكَادَ يَطْلُعُ مِنْ نَوَاحِيهِ
the water in the vessel poured out over its sides—تَطَلَّعَ المَآءُ فِى الإِنَآءِ
1.1.3figurative · مجاز — inferredhe ascended the mountain—طَلَعَ الجَبَلَ

. The preposition [عَلَى] is left out. طَلِعَ, with kesr, is used in the same way, and اِطَّلَعَ الجَبَلَ means the same as طَلَعَهُ. See also مُضْطَلِعٌ in art. ضلع.

I ascended the mountain—طَلِعْتُ الجَبَلَ

According to ISk, with kesr; but others say طَلَعْتُ, with fet-h.

I ascended the mountain—طَلَعْتُ فِى الجَبَلِ

Another explanation of this phrase follows below.

1.1.4figurative · مجاز — inferredhe (a man) came to us; and he came upon us suddenly, unawares—طَلَعَ عَلَيْنَا

and اِطَّلَعَ.

he became absent from them, or departed from them—طَلَعَ عَنْهُمْ
he came forth upon the people, or party; and also, he looked upon them—طَلَعَ عَلَى القَوْمِ
I came to the people, or party—طَلَعْتُ عَلَى القَوْمِ
I became absent from them, or departed from them—طَلَعْتُ عَنْهُمْ

According to ISk.

أَطْلَعْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ means the same as طَلَعْتُ, and طَلَعْتُ عَنْهُمْ has the same meaning as طَلَعْتُ عَنْهُمْ explained above, according to ISk, عَلَى being put in the place of عن.

I became absent from the people so that they did not see me; and also, I advanced towards them so that they saw me—طَلَعْتُ عَلَى القَوْمِ

according to AZ. The phrase thus has two opposite meanings.

I retired, or went back, into the mountain, so that my companion did not see me—طَلَعْتُ فِى الجَبَلِ

Az says the Arabs used it so. See also the other explanation of this phrase above.

I retired, or went back, from my companion—طَلَعْتُ عَنْ صَاحِبِى

.

I advanced, or came near, towards my companion—طَلَعْتُ عَنْ صَاحِبِى

Here عَنْ is plainly a mistranscription for عَلَى.

In all these phrases طَلَعَ and طَلَعْتُ may be rendered: he, and I, came forth, or went forth. Hence the proverb هٰذِهِ يَمِينٌ قَدْ طَلَعَتْ فِى المَخَارِمِ, explained in art. خرم under مَخْرِمٌ.

1.1.5

For another meaning of طَلَعَ followed by عَلَى, see اِطَّلَعَ, which is more commonly used with that meaning.

1.1.6figurative · مجازhe went, or made his way, to, or towards, his country—طَلَعَ بِلَادَهُ

The verb here is synonymous with قَصَدَ; so طَلَعَ is also used.

these are ripening dates that have gone towards El-Yemen—هٰذَا بُسْرٌ قَدْ طَلَعَ اليَمَنَ

In a tradition; or the reading is هذا بُرٌّ, this is wheat that has gone towards El-Yemen — that is, from Nejd.

1.1.7figurative · مجاز — inferredhe reached, or arrived at, their land—طَلَعَ أَرْضَهُمْ

In these phrases the verb is synonymous with بَلَغَ.

Here the verb اِطَّلَعَ, used in the same sense.

when did you reach, or arrive at, our land?—مَتَى طَلَعْتَ أَرْضَنَا
he reached, or arrived at, this land—اطّلع هٰذِهِ الأَرْضَ
the pain of which shall reach the hearts—ٱلَّتِى تَطَّلِعُ عَلَى الأَفْئِدَةِ

In the Kur 104:7; or, which shall rise above the hearts, [or overwhelm them,] and burn them.

18:17
وَتَرَى ٱلشَّمْسَ إِذَا طَلَعَت تَّزَٰوَرُ عَن كَهْفِهِمْ ذَاتَ ٱلْيَمِينِ وَإِذَا غَرَبَت تَّقْرِضُهُمْ ذَاتَ ٱلشِّمَالِ وَهُمْ فِى فَجْوَةٍ مِّنْهُ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ مِنْ ءَايَـٰتِ ٱللَّهِ ۗ مَن يَهْدِ ٱللَّهُ فَهُوَ ٱلْمُهْتَدِ ۖ وَمَن يُضْلِلْ فَلَن تَجِدَ لَهُۥ وَلِيًّا مُّرْشِدًا

Thou wouldst have seen the sun, when it rose, declining to the right from their Cave, and when it set, turning away from them to the left, while they lay in the open space in the midst of the Cave. Such are among the Signs of Allah: He whom Allah, guides is rightly guided; but he whom Allah leaves to stray,- for him wilt thou find no protector to lead him to the Right Way.

18:90
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا بَلَغَ مَطْلِعَ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَجَدَهَا تَطْلُعُ عَلَىٰ قَوْمٍ لَّمْ نَجْعَل لَّهُم مِّن دُونِهَا سِتْرًا

Until, when he came to the rising of the sun, he found it rising on a people for whom We had provided no covering protection against the sun.

Core sense — the spadix, or spathe, of a palm-tree; its flowers; a number, or quantitygenerated

1figurative · مجاز

The طَلْع [i. e. spadix, or spadix in its spathe, and sometimes the spathe alone] of the palm-tree.

The إِغْرِيض [or spadix] of the palm-tree, from over which the كَافُور [or spathe] bursts open lengthwise; or the flowers of the palm-tree while still in the كافور.

A thing that comes forth from the palm-tree, as though it were two soles, or sandals, closed together, with the حِمْل [meaning flowers] packed close between them, and with a pointed end.

Or the ثَمَرَة [or produce] of the palm-tree in the first stage of its appearance, the covering [or spathe] of which is called the كُفُرَّى and the كَافُور, and what is within this the إِغْرِيض, because of its whiteness.

Or the طَلْع is what comes forth from the palm-tree and becomes dates if the tree is female; and if the tree is male it does not become dates, but is eaten in its fresh state, or is left on the palm-tree some days until a white substance like flour, [that is, the pollen,] with a strong smell, forms in it, and with this the female is fecundated.

Or a certain white thing that appears from the كِمّ [or spathe] of the palm-tree, to whose colour that of the teeth is likened.

And also, sometimes, the كِمّ [or spathe] that comes forth from the palm-tree before it bursts open lengthwise: [this is also called the كُفُرَّى, for] the phrase طَلْعُ الكُفُزَّى is an instance of prefixing a noun to a word that explains it: [or this phrase may mean the spadix of the spathe of a palm-tree. طَلْعٌ, it should be added, is sometimes used as a collective generic noun, and its ism waḥda is with ة, as in explanations of إِغْرِيضٌ and the like.]

In the Kur 37:63 it is applied to the fruit, or produce, of the tree called الزَّقُّوم in the bottom of Hell, metaphorically, because it partakes of the form of the طلع of dates, or because it comes forth from the tree.
