جُبَّةٌ جب جبه جبة A well-known garment [or coat], (Msb, K, TA,) of the kind of those called مُقَطَّعَات: (TA:) accord. to ' Iyád, a garment cut out and sewed: accord. to Ibn-Hajar and others, a double garment quilted with cotton; or, sometimes, if of wool, a single garment, not quilted with anything: (MF:) [most probably not so much resembling the modern garment more generally known by the same name (for a description and representation of which see my “ Modern Egyptians, ” ch. i.,) as a kind of جُبَّة still worn in Northern Africa, described in this Lexicon voce مِدْرَعَةٌ: accord. to Golius, “ tunica ex panno gossipino, cui pallium seu toga imponitur, cum subductitio panno et intercedente gossipio punctim consuta: Italis consona voce giuppa: si ita cum gossipio consuta non sit, دُرَّاعَةٌ tunica illa gossipina dicitur: ”] pl. جُبَبٌ (Msb, K) and جِبَابٌ. (S, K.) ― -b2- I. q. دِرْعٌ [A coat of mail; or any coat of defence]: (K:) pl. جُبَبٌ. (TA.) Er-Rá'ee says, “ لَنَا جُبَبٌ وَأَرْمَاحٌ طِوَالٌ

” [We have coats of mail, or of defence, and long spears: with them we ply distant war]. (TA.) -A2- The part of a spear-head into which the shaft enters: (S, K:) and the ثَعْلَب is the part of the spear-shaft that enters into the head. (TA.) ― -b2- [In the TA, جُبَّةُ الرُّمْحِ is also explained as meaning ما دخل من السنان فيه The part of the spearhead that enters into the shaft: but it seems that من has been inserted here by a mistake of the copyist; and that the true meaning intended is the part of the spear-shaft into which the head enters; though in general the shaft enters into the head.] ― -b3- The part in which is the مُشَاشَة [q. v.] of a horn.
