(Msb.) ― -b3- A man firm of judgment, and intelligent. (M, K.* [Accord. to the copies of the latter, the signification is عَاقِبٌ ثَابِتُ الرَّأْىِ: but I think that the right reading of the first word is عَاقِلٌ, as in the M, in which this word occupies the last place in the explanation.]) And أَصِيلُ الرَّأْىِ A man firm, or sound, of judgment. (S.) And رَأْىٌ أَصِيلٌ Judgment having أَصْل [i. e. firmness]. (M.) And مَجْدٌ أَصِيلٌ Glory, honour, dignity, or nobility, having a firm root or foundation. (S.)

(Msb, TA) the time from the عَصْر, (S, TA,) from the prayer of the عصر, (Msb,) to sunset; (Sudot;, Msb, TA;) as also ↓ أَصِيلَةٌ : (R, TA:) the pl. is أُصُلٌ, (S, M, R, Msb, K,) or ↓ this is a sing., (TA,) or it may be a sing., (M,) for it is used as such, (M, TA,) and أُصْلَانٌ, (S, M, K,) and آصَالٌ, (S, M, Sgh, K,) [a pl. of pauc.,] or, accord. to Es- Saláh Es-Safadee, this is a pl. of أُصُلٌ, the sing., not the pl., (TA,) or it is pl. of أُصُلٌ, (Zj, M,) which may be a pl. or a sing., (M,) and أَصَائِلُ, (S, M, K,) as though pl. of أَصِيلَةٌ, (S,) or it is pl. of this last word. (R, TA.) You say, لَقِيتُهُ أَصِيلًا and ↓ أُصُلًا , i. e. [I met him in the evening,] عَشِيًّا. (A, TA.) From the pl. أُصْلَانُ is formed the dim. ↓ أُصَيْلَانٌ , (S, M, K,) which is extr., (M, K,) because the dim. of a pl. is [regularly] formed only from a pl. of pauc., which اصلان is not; or, if اصلان be a sing., like رُمَّانٌ and قُرْبَانٌ, this dim. is regular: (M:) sometimes, (K,) one says also ↓ أُصَيْلَالٌ , (S, M, K,) substituting ل for the [final] ن (S, M.*) You say, ↓لَقِيتُهُ أُصَيْلَانًا and ↓ أُصَيْلَالًا , meaning, as above, عَشِيًّا: (A, TA:) and Lh mentions ↓ لقيته أُصَيَّالًا . (So in two copies of the S.)
