1 شَلَّتْ يَمِينُهُ ذ , (S, O,) or يَدُهُ, (Mgh, TA,) or اليَدُ, (Msb, K,) originally شَلِلَتْ, (Mgh, Msb, TA,) aor. تَشَلُّ, (S, O, &c.,) inf. n. شَلَلٌ (S, * O, * Mgh, Msb, K) and شَلٌّ, (Msb, K,) or the latter is not allowable; (Ham p. 69;) this is the chaste form of the verb; (Th, TA;) and ↓ أُشِلَّتْ ; (Th, K;) and شُلَّتْ, (Th, O, K,) but this last is bad, (Th, O, TA,) and is disallowed by Fr; (TA;) His right hand or arm, or his hand or arm, or the hand or arm, was, or became, unsound, or vitiated: (S, O, TA:) or deprived of the power of motion by an unsound, or a vitiated, state of its عُرُوق [meaning veins or nerves]: (Msb:) or dried up; or stiff: or it went [or wasted] away. (K, TA.) One says, in praying for a person, لَا تَشْلَلْ يَدُكَ [May thy hand, or arm, not become unsound, &c.]: (S, Msb, * K: *) and لَا شَلَلًا and ↓ لَا شَلَالِ , which mean the same; the last word like قَطَامِ. (K.) And شَلَّ عَشْرُهُ, and خَمْسُهُ, [His ten fingers became unsound, &c., and his five fingers,] and some say شَلَّتْ, but this is more rare; i. e., the suppression of the fem. ت is more usual in a case of this kind. (Lh, TA.) To one who has shot or thrown, or who has pierced or thrust, well, one says, لَا شَلَلًا وَلَا عَمًى [Mayest thou not experience unsoundness, &c., nor blindness]; and لَا شَلَّ عَشْرُكَ [May thy ten fingers not become unsound, &c.], meaning أَصَابِعُكَ. (S, O.) He who says شَلَّ المَارِنُ and شَلَّتِ الأُذُنُ is a foreigner. (Mgh.) The lawyers [improperly] use الشَّلَل in relation to the ذَكَر. (Msb.) One says also, شَلِلْتَ يَا رَجُلُ [Thou hast become unsound, &c., in thy hand or thine arm, O man]. (S, O.) And لَا شَلَلَ, meaning لَا تَشْلَلْ, because it occupies the place of an imperative. (Lth, TA.) In the saying of the rájiz, (S,) namely, Abu-l-Khudree El-Yarboo'ee, (O, TA,) “ مُهْرَ أَبِى الجَبْحَابِ لَا تَشَلِّى
” [Colt of Abu-l-Habháb, mayest thou not become unsound, &c., in the fore leg], (S, TA, [in the O, ابى الحَرِثِ, for ابى الحٰرِثِ,]) the last word is thus [for لا تَشْلَلْ] on account of the rhyme: (S, O, TA:) [for] the next hemistich is “ بَارَكَ فِيكَ ا@للّٰهُ مِنْ ذِى أَلِّ
” [God bless thee as one possessing fleetness, or swiftness]; (O, TA;) ذى الّ in this instance meaning ذى سُرْعَةٍ. (S in art. ال.) -A2- شَلَّهُ; (K;) and شَلَلْتُ الإِِبِلَ, (S, O,) and الرَّجُلَ; (Msb;) aor. شَلُ3َ , (S, Msb,) inf. n. شَلٌّ (S, O, Msb, K *) and شَلَلٌ, (K, * and Ksh in xii. 3,) like as قَصَصٌ is inf. n. of قَصَّ, (Ksh ibid.,) or شَلَلٌ is a simple subst.; (S, O;) He drove him away; (K;) and I drove away (S, O, Msb) the camels, (S, O,) and the man. (Msb.) And مَرَّ فُلَانٌ يَشُلُّهُمْ بِالسَّيْفِ Such a one passed along urging them on, and driving them, with the sword. (S.) [See also 4. ― -b2- Hence,] الصُّبْحُ يَشُلُّ الظَّلَامَ (tropical:) The dawn drives away the darkness. (TA.) ― -b3- And شَلَّتِ العَيْنُ دَمْعَهَا (assumed tropical:) The eye sent forth [or shed] its tears: (Lh, K:) like شَنَّتْهُ: (Lh, TA:) asserted by Yaa- koob to be formed by substitution [of ل for ن]. (TA.) ― -b4- And شَلَّ الدِّرْعَ, (O, TA,) and شَلَّهَا عَلَيْهِ, aor. شَلُ3َ , inf. n. شَلٌّ, (TA,) He put on himself the coat of mail; on the authority of ISh. (O, TA.) ― -b5- شَلَلْتُ الثَّوْبَ, (S, O, Msb, TA,) inf. n. شَلٌّ, (O,) I sewed the garment, or piece of cloth, (S, O, Msb, TA,) slightly; (S, O, TA; [omitted, probably by inadvertence, in my copy of the Msb;]) [previously to the second sewing termed الكَفُّ;] strangely omitted in the K: ↓ شِلَالَةٌ is [app. a subst., not an inf. n., signifying The act, or art, of so sewing;] the contr. of كِفَافَةٌ. (TA.)
