maṣdarمَقَامٌ

Core sense — he stood up, he rose; he undertook the affairgenerated

1.1

He stood still in his place.

Lane cites “Bd in ii. 19” — a commentary, not the verse; no modern number is given
1.1.1the beast stopped from journeying, from fatigueقَامَتِ الدَّابَّةُ

The first is the same as انقطعت.

his beast, being jaded, stopped with him and did not move from its placeقَامَتْ عَلَيْهِ الدَّابَّةُ
1.1.2he, or it, stood up erectقَامَ

Synonym: اِنْتَصَبَ.

Hence also: he rose, that is, from sitting or reclining.

1.1.3he rose in the night to prayقَامَ بِاللَّيْلِ
1.1.4he passed the nights of Ramaḍān in prayerقَامَ
he passed the nights of Ramaḍān in prayerرَمَضَانَ

(El-'Alḳamee, in a marginal note in a copy of the Jámi' eṣ-Ṣagheer, under the word مَنْ.)

Or: he performed the prayers [of Ramaḍān] called التَّرَاوِيح. (En-Nawawee, same place.)

See a verse cited under حُوبٌ.

1.1.9he undertook the affair, taking it upon himselfقَامَ بِالأَمْرِ

Synonym: تَكَفَّلَ بِهِ; the adjective is قَائِمٌ and قَيِّمٌ.

It also means: he managed, conducted, regulated, or superintended, the affair; synonym سَاسَهُ; and قام عَلَيْهِ has this same meaning.

It also means: he tended, or took care of, it or him; synonyms سَاسَهُ and وَلِيَهُ.

[And] the former means: he attended to the affair, was mindful of it, and kept to it steadily; this should be the first explanation. It is the opposite of قَعَدَ عَنْهُ and تَقَاعَدَ. (JM.)

[Or], as the opposite of قعد, عنه and تقاعد mean: he acted vigorously in the affair; and so does أَقَامَهُ, synonymous with جَدَّ فِيهِ and تَجَلَّدَ.

Lane cites “Bd in ii. 2” — a commentary, not the verse; no modern number is given
1.1.10he undertook, superintended, or managed, his affair or affairsقَامَ بِشَأْنِهِ

Or: the men are mindful of the women, act well to them, and take care of them.

1.1.11[He undertook, and it served, to excuse me]قامَ بِعُذْرِى

(Msb and TA under عذر and elsewhere.)
