عوق

Of the headword: with which عَيْقٌ is synonymous [as maṣdar of عَاقَهُ, whose muḍāriʿ is يَعِيقُهُ]; so in art. عيق.

Maṣdar اِعْتِيَاقٌ and اعاقهُ [if this last is not a mistranscription for اعتاقهُ].

Maṣdar تَعْوِيقٌ and تعوّقهُ.

[Of the verbs listed here, the first is said to mean the same as حَبَسَهُ and صَرَفَهُ; IJ says the same of the last, and others say it of the second, and apparently of this one and of the fourth as well. The fourth means the same as ثَبَّطَهُ, and so, it is said, do the first and the second; and the first, third and fourth mean the same as مَنَعَهُ.]

And عَقَاهُ means the same as عَاقَهُ, عوّقهُ and اعتاقهُ.

See form 1, first sense.

See form 1, first sense.

Also given as الزَّادُ.

The same as قَطَعَ. Ibn-ʿAbbād.

The same as تَثَبَّطَ.

تعوّقهُ: see form 1, first sense.

See form 1, first sense.

[According to Freytag, اعتاق also means: he was detained, or kept back, with someone, or at someone's abode; and he was bound.]

The headword is written thus in some copies; the correct form is this one, like غَاقِ غَاقِ.

The headword is a maṣdar, and is also used as an adjective meaning: one who hinders or keeps people from what is good.

See also عُوَقٌ.

Ru-beh says: [May every one of them in whom there is no good, who is niggardly, be your ransom]

.

Plural أَعْوَاقٌ.

Hunger, like عَوْلَقٌ.

See عُوَقٌ.

عِوَقٌ, which comes from IAar, is written by some as عَوِقٌ, and other forms are عَيِّقٌ and عَيِّقٌ, this last with fetḥ, that is with fetḥ and teshdeed on the ى; but in the CK عَيْقٌ.

He is so called because the accidents that turn him from his course keep him from getting what he wants. See also عَوْقٌ.

IDrd gives this form; with teshdeed according to El-Arzenee and Aboo-Sahl El-Harawee, applied to a man.

Or, according to IDrd, it means, or also means, a coward, or cowardly; in this sense it belongs only to the dialect of Hudheyl, and so does عُوَقٌ.

عُوَقٌ also means the same as عَائِقٌ, according to Aboo-Usámeh, as an adjective applied to a man; and عُوَّقٌ, according to him, is the plural of عَائِقٌ.

عُوَقٌ and عُوَّقٌ both also mean: one whom affairs never cease to hinder from getting what he wants; and also: one who, when he intends a thing, does it. So Ibn-ʿAbbād explains them, as though they had two opposite meanings.

See عُوَقٌ, first meaning.

See عَوْقٌ.

See عُوَقٌ, first meaning.

Some say it is the sound of anything.

عُوقٌ and عَوِقٌ mean the same, said of a person or of a thing. See also عُوَقٌ, in two places.

The plural of the first is عُوَّقٌ.

The first word in it is the plural of عَائِقَةٌ, or irregularly of عَوْقٌ.

See عُوَقٌ, in three places.

This word and عَيَّقٌ: see عُوَقٌ, first meaning.

A bright, red [?] star in, or on, the right [?] edge of the Milky Way, following الثُّرَيَّا [the Pleiades] and not preceding it, and rising before الجَوْزَآء [by which may be meant either Orion or Gemini]. When it has risen, it is known that الثُّرَيَّا has risen.

[It is the well-known name of the star Capella, although described above as “red” and as in, or on, the “right” of the Milky Way; for Capella, though not red now, has been observed by astronomers in very recent times to change in brightness; and I think that the word rendered above “right,” which is أَيْمَن, is probably a mistranscription for أَيْسَر, that is “left”: the description that follows clearly points to Capella.]

It is the bright star [a] on the left shoulder of Auriga. The one on the left elbow is العَنْزُ; the two on the left wrist, together with العيّوق, are called العِنَازُ [see عَنْزٌ].

It is also called the رَقِيب [or watcher] of الثُّرَيَّا, because at many places it rises with them.

The star on the right shoulder, with the two on the ankle-joints — the constellation being figured in various ways — are called تَوابِعُ العَيُّوقِ.

It is said to be called العيّوق because it is regarded as keeping الدَّبَرَان from meeting الثُّرَيَّا.

عَيُّوق is originally عَيْوُوق, its middle radical being و; or it may be ى.

The ال is left out but meant to be understood, so the word itself keeps its former determinate state [without tenween].

Because his beast or his travelling-provision has failed him: see أَعْوَقَ. Ibn-ʿAbbād.

A certain idol which belonged to the people of Noah. Or, originally, a righteous man of his time, of whom, and of seven other righteous men after him, images were made at the prompting of the Devil, which in the course of time became objects of worship. Or a certain idol belonging to the tribe of Kináneh, or to Murád. Ksh and Bd on 71:23.
