طَبٌّ ذ : see طِبٌّ. -A2- It is also an inf. n. used as an epithet: see طَبِيبٌ. (Msb.) ― -b2- And, (S, A, Msb, K,) as such, i. e. an inf. n. used as an epithet, or by original application, but the former is app. the case, and some have mentioned likewise ↓ طبٌّ and ↓ طُبٌّ , (MF, TA,) (tropical:) Knowing, or possessing knowledge, (S, A, Msb, TA,) respecting a thing, or of a thing; (A, Msb, TA;) and so ↓ طَبِيبٌ : (TA:) and (TA) (assumed tropical:) skilful, or expert; (T, K;) as also ↓ طَبِيبٌ : (T, S, K:) and (tropical:) gentle; (Nh, TA;) and so too ↓ طَبِيبٌ . (TA.) One says, فُلَانٌ طَبٌّ بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) Such a one is knowing with regard to, or is one possessing knowledge of, such a thing. (TA.) And القَوْمُ طَبُّونَ, or, as some relate it, ↓ القَوْمُ مَا أَطَبُّونَ , is a prov.: the former means (assumed tropical:) The people, or party, are knowing, or skilful, or expert: and [Meyd says,] I know not any way in which the latter is explainable unless ↓ أَطَبُّ be syn. with طَبٌّ, like أَخْشَنُ and خَشِنٌ, &c., and ما a connective. (Meyd.) To a man who offered to cure the [so-called] seal, or stamp, of the prophetic office between the Prophet's shoulder-blades, asserting himself to be a طَبِيب [or physician], the Prophet replied, ↓ طَبِيبُهَا الَّذِّى خَلَقَهَا, meaning (assumed tropical:) He who has knowledge respecting it is He who created it. (TA.) And El-Marrár El-Fak'asee says, “ تَدِينُ لِمَزْرُورٍ إِِلَى جَنْبِ حَلْقَةٍ
↓ مِنَ الشِّبْهِ سَوَّاهَا بِرِفْقٍ طَبِيبُهَا
” (assumed tropical:) [She obeys a plaited nose-rein attached to the side of a ring of brass, the skilful maker of which has fashioned it with gentleness]: (S, L:) i. e. the she-camel of which he speaks obeys her rein that is tied to her nose-ring of brass. (L.) [Hence,] فَحْلٌ طَبٌّ (assumed tropical:) A stallion [camel] expert in covering, (S, Msb, K, TA,) as also ↓ طَبِيبٌ ; (Msb;) that knows the she-camel that is pregnant from her that is not, and her that desires the stallion from her that is covered without desire, and the motion of the fœtus in the womb, &c.: (TA:) or (tropical:) that is gentle, and does not injure the female that he covers. (A, TA.) And بَعِيرٌ طَبٌّ (tropical:) A camel that is mindful, or careful, as to the place of his foot, (A, K, TA,) where to tread with it: or that does not place his foot save where he sees. (TA.)
