(S, M, Msb.) This is what is meant in the Kur [xcv. 1], where it is said, وَالتِّينِ وَالزَّيْتُونِ, (T, S, M, Msb,) accord. to I'Ab, (T, S, Bd, Jel,) and the generality of the interpreters: (Msb:) or these two words mean two mountains (S, M, Bd, Jel) of Syria, (S, Jel,) or of the Holy Land, (Bd,) that produce the two fruits thus named: (Jel:) or, accord. to a Syrian interpreter, certain mountains extending from Hulwán, to Hemdán, and the mountains of Syria: (Fr, T:) or Damascus and Jerusalem: (M, Bd:) or the mosque of Damascus and that of Jerusalem: (Bd:) or two mosques in Syria: accord. to AHn, the former is the name of a mountain in the country of Ghatafán; but there is no mountain thus called in Syria.

Arab. p. lxvii) applies the former name to the cochineal Indian fig; cactus cochinillifer.] ― -b4- التِّينَةُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) The anus: (AHn, M, K:) [opposed to الجُمَّيْزَةُ as meaning “ the pudendum muliebre. ”.] تِينَانٌ تينان : see art. تن. تَيَّانٌ تيان A seller of تِين [or figs].
