The saying لَأَصْهَرَنَّكَ بِيَمِينٍ مُرَّةٍ app. means (assumed tropical:) I will assuredly melt thee [in the fire of Hell by making thee to swear a bitter oath]: (S:) or (tropical:) I will assuredly make thee to swear a hard oath. (A.) One says also, صَهَرْتُ فُلَانًا بِيَمِينٍ كَاذِبَةٍ تُوْجِبُ لَهُ النَّارَ (assumed tropical:) [I caused such a one to melt, by making him to swear a false oath that would procure for him, as a consequence thereof, the fire of Hell]. (AO.) ― -b2- Also, inf. n. as above, He, or it, burned: he thoroughly cooked with fire. (TA.) ― -b3- (tropical:) It (heat) affected him severely. (A.) And صَهَرَتْهُ الشَّمْسُ (tropical:) The sun affected him severely by its heat, (S, * A, K, * TA,) so that it pained his brain. (TA.) Ibn-Ahmar says, describing the young one of a قَطَاة, (S, O,) which was bearing water to it, (O,) “ تَرْوِى لَقًى أُلْقِىَ فِى صَفْصَفٍ
تَصْهَرُهُ الشَّمْسُ فَمَا يَنْصَهِرْ
” i. e. [She bearing water to a castaway, cast upon a plain,] which the sun was melting, [or severely affecting,] and [which did not melt, meaning] which endured the sun's melting it. (S, * O. [In both of my copies of the S, and in the O and TA, the first word is تَرْوِى, as above; not تُرْوِى.]) And you say, صَهَرَ الحَرُّ الحِرْبَآءَ (tropical:) The heat made the chameleon's back to glisten. (TA.) ― -b4- And صَهَرَ خُبْزَهُ He seasoned his bread with صُهَارَة, (AZ, A, TA,) i. e. melted fat. (A, TA.) And صَهَرَ رَأْسَهُ He anointed his head with صُهَارَة. (A, K.)

(L, TA.) -A2- صَهَرَهُ also signifies (assumed tropical:) He brought, or drew, it (i. e. a thing, O) near, إِِلَيْهِ [to him or it]; and so ↓ اصهرهُ . (O, TA.)
