2 أذّنهُ ذ , (S, M, K,) inf. n. تَأْذِينٌ, (K,) He wrung, or twisted, (عَرَكَ,) his (a boy's, S) ear: (S, K:) or he struck, (ضَرَبَ, TA,) or struck with his finger, or fillipped, (نَقَرَ, M, TA,) his ear. (M, TA.) [See also أَذَنَهُ.] They say, (in a prov., TA in art. جوز,) لِكُلِّ جَابِهٍ جَوْزَةٌ ثُمَّ يُؤْذَّنُ, (M, TA,) i. e. For every one that comes to water is a single watering for his family and his cattle; then his ear is struck, to apprize him that he has nothing more to receive from them: (TA in the present art., and the like is said in the same in art. جوز:) or, (assumed tropical:) then he is repelled from the water: (TA in art. جوز:) [for أذّنهُ signifies also] ― -b2- (assumed tropical:) He repelled him, (IAar, T, M, K,) namely, a man, (IAar, T, M,) from drinking, (K,) and did not give him to drink. (M, K.) You say also, أَذِّنُوا عَنِّى أُوَلَهَا, [in which the pronoun appears, from the context, to relate to camels,] (assumed tropical:) Send ye away from me the first ones of them. (En-Nadr, T.) -A2- أذّن النَّعْلَ, (inf. n. as above, S,) He put to the sandal what is termed أُذُنٌ, q. v. infrà: (S, M, K:) and in like manner one says with respect to other things. (S, K.) -A3- أذّن, (M, K,) inf. n. as above, (K,) also signifies He made known, or notified, a thing (بِشَىْءٍ) much; (M, K; *) he proclaimed, or made proclamation; syn. نَادَى: (Jel in vii. 42, and Bd and Jel in xii. 70 and xxii. 28:) Sb says that some of the Arabs make أَذَّنَ and ↓ آذَنَ to be syn.: but some say that the former signifies he called out publickly; and the latter, i. q. أَعْلَمَ [he made to know, &c.: see 4]. (M, TA.) It is said in the Kur [xxii. 28], وَأَذِّنْ فِى النَّاسِ بِالحَجِّ (M) And proclaim thou, among the people, the pilgrimage. (Bd, Jel.) ― -b2- Also, (S, K,) or أذّن بِالصَّلَاةِ, (Msb,) inf. n. as above, (M, K,) or أَذَانٌ, (S,) or both, (TA,) or the latter is [properly speaking] a simple subst. [used as an inf. n.], as in the instances of وَدَّعَ وَدَاعَّا and سَلَّمَ سَلَامًا and كَلَّمَ كَلَامًا &c., (Msb,) He called to prayer; (M, K;) he notified, or made known, or proclaimed, [i. e., chanted, from the مِئْذَنَة,] the time of prayer; (S, * Msb, * TA;) and ↓ آذَنَ signifies the same, (K,) inf. n. إِِيذَانٌ. (TA.) IB says, the phrase أَذَّنَ العَصْرُ, with the verb in the act. form, [a phrase commonly obtaining in the present day,] is wrong; the correct expression being أُذِّنَ بِالعَصْرِ [The time of the prayer of afternoon was proclaimed, i. e., chanted], with the verb in the pass. form, and with the preposition to connect it with its subject. (Msb.) ― -b3- You say also, أَذَّنَ بِإِِرْسَالِ إِِبِلِهِ He spoke of sending away his camels. (En-Nadr, T.)
