1 طَبَّ ذ , aor. طَبُ3َ , (O, Msb, K, TA,) agreeably with analogy in the case of a trans. reduplicative verb [like this], (TA,) and طَبِ3َ , (K, TA,) which is irregular, (TA,) inf. n. طَبٌّ (O, * Msb, K, * TA) [and app. طِبٌّ and طُبٌّ also accord. to the O and K, but, accord. to the Msb, طِبٌّ is the subst. from this verb, and app. طُبٌّ is likewise a simple subst.], He treated medically, therapeutically, or curatively, (O, * Msb, K, *) another person (O, Msb) [or the body, and in like manner the soul: see طِبٌّ, below]. ― -b2- And طَبيْتَ, with kesr, (S, O, K,) and طَبَبْتَ, with fet-h, (O, K,) [third pers. of each طَبَّ, and, accord. to analogy, the aor. of the former is طَبَ3َ , and of the latter طَبِ3َ , but from what follows it seems probable that one says also طَبُبْتَ in the same sense, aor. طَبُ3َ , unless طَبَبْتَ have تَطُتُّ as an irreg. aor.,] Thou wast, or becamest a طَبِيت [or physician], not having been such. (S, O, K.) One says, إِِنْ كُنْتَ ذَا طُبٍّ فَطُبَّ لِعَيْنَيْكَ, (S, O, and so in copies of the K,) or لِعَيْنِكَ, (so in other copies of the K,) or لِنَفْسِكَ, (ISk, TA,) and ذا طَبٍّ, and ذا طِبٍّ, (S, K,) and فَطَبَّ, and فَطِبَّ; (K;) [i. e. If thou be a possessor of the art, or science, of physic, be a physician to thine eyes, or thine eye, or thyself;] meaning, begin by rectifying thyself. (ISk, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 902.]) ― -b3- And [hence] طَبَّ signifies also (assumed tropical:) He acted with skill, or expertness: [and in this sense likewise the second pers. is probably طَبِبْتَ and طَبَبْتَ and طَبُبْتَ, of which last the inf. n. is app. طَبَابَةٌ, occurring in one of the phrases here following:] so in the saying, اِصْنَعْهُ صَنْعَةَ مَنْ طَبَّ لِمَنْ حَبَّ i. e. (assumed tropical:) Do thou it in the manner of him who acts with skill, or expertness, for him whom he loves: a prov., relating to the accomplishing an object of want skilfully and well. (El-Ahmar, TA. [See also Freytag's Arab. Prov. i. 717.]) One says also, اِعْمَلْ فِى هٰذَا عَمَلَ مَنْ طَبَّ لِمَنْ حَبَّ (assumed tropical:) [Do thou, in this, the deed of him who acts with skill, or expertness, for him whom he loves]. (M, Msb, * TA.) And مَنْ حَبَّ طَبَّ, (Meyd,) or مَنْ أَحَبَّ طَبَّ, (K,) (assumed tropical:) He who loves is skilful, or intelligent, and exercises art, or ingenuity, for him whom he loves: (Meyd:) or (assumed tropical:) he who loves executes affairs with deliberateness and gentleness. (K.) [That one says طَبُبْتَ, as well as طَبِبْتَ and طَبَبْتَ, seems to be indicated by the fact that ↓ طَبَابَةٌ , as an inf. n., is thus written, in a copy of the KL in my possession, and expl. as meaning The medical art: Golius, however, appears to have found it written, in a copy of the same work, ↓ طِبَابَةٌ , which is agreeable with analogy as inf. n. of a verb of the measure فَعَلَ significant of an art, and is probably correct: Freytag mentions the pl. طَبَائِبُ as signifying medical arts, on the authority of the Deewán of the Hudhalees.] ― -b4- طَبَّهُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) He enchanted him, or fascinated him: (O:) and طُبَّ (tropical:) he (a man, S, A) was enchanted, or fascinated. (S, A, O. [See also طِبٌّ, below.]) ― -b5- طَبَّ السِّقَآءَ, aor. طَبُ3َ , (S, TA,) inf. n. طَبٌّ; (K, TA;) and ↓ طبّبهُ , with teshdeed to denote muchness, (S, TA,) inf. n. تطْبِيبٌ; (K, TA;) He covered the seams of the water-skin, or milk-skin, with a طِبَابَة [q. v.]: (S, K, * TA:) and طَبَّ الخُرَزَ he covered the seams with a طِبَابَة: (TA) [and] المَزَادَة ↓ طَبَّبَتِ she (a girl, or young woman,) put [or sewed] a piece of skin called ↓ طِبَابٌ and ↓ طِبَابَةٌ , upon the place of junction [of each] of the two extremities of the loop-shaped handles of the مزادة [or leathern water-bag]; as though she rectified the مزادة thereby.
