4 اتهم أتهم اتهم ٱتهم He (a man, S) went, (S,) or came, (K,) to Tihámeh: (S, K:) Er-Riyáshee says, I have heard the Arabs of the desert say thus of him who has descended from the mountain-roads of Dhát 'Irk: (TA:) or he alighted, or abode, therein: (K:) as also ↓ تَاهَمَ , (JK, K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, تَاهَّمَ,]) in the latter sense, (JK,) and ↓ تتهّم ; (K;) or these mean he came to Tihámeh. (TA.) ― -b2- [Accord. to Golius, on the authority of a gloss. in the KL, it signifies also, He went into a region of hot air: and this, if correct, may be the primary meaning.] -A2- اتهم البَلَدَ He found the country, or town, to be insalubrious, (K, TA,) and to have a bad, or foul, odour. (TA.) -A3- اتهم, inf. n. إِِتْهَامٌ; in measure like أَكْرَمَ, inf. n. إِِكْرَامٌ; (Msb;) [originally اوهم; or] formed from تُهَمَةٌ, in consequence of imagining the ت in this word to be radical; (MF in art. وهم;) [like as is said of أَتْخَمَ;] He did a thing that made him an object of suspicion: (JK and Msb and TA in the present art.:) or he was an object of suspicion: (K in art. وهم: [in the CK and TK, erroneously, اتّهم:]) or there was in him that which induced suspicion: you say of a man, when you suspect him, أَتْهَمْتَ, inf. n. إِِتْهَامٌ; like أَدْوَأْتَ, inf. n. إِِدْوَآءٌ. (S in art. وهم.) -A4- اتهمهُ He suspected him; thought evil of him; as also ↓ اِتَّهَمَهُ [which is the more common]. (Msb in this art.) You say, اتهمهُ بِكَذَا, (K, and so in some copies of the S, both in art. وهم,) inf. n. إِِتْهَامٌ; (K in that art.;) or بِهِ ↓ اِتَّهَمَهُ ; (Msb and K, and so in some copies of the S, all in that art.;) and أَوْهَمَهُ; (K in that art.;) He suspected him of such a thing; imputed it to him; (Msb and K * and TA, all in that art.;) [and he accused him of such a thing;] i. e., a thing attributed to him. (TA.) And ↓ اِتَّهَمْتُهُ فِى قَوْلِهِ [I suspected him in respect of his saying;] I doubted of the correctness, or truth, of his saying. (Msb in art. وهم.)
