صَرُورَةٌ ذ (S, M, A, Msb, K) and ↓ صَارُورَةٌ (S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ صَرُورٌ and ↓ صَارُورٌ (M, K) and ↓ صَرَارَةٌ (S, M, K) and ↓ صَرُورِىٌّ (S, M, Msb, K) and ↓ صَارُورِىٌّ (M) or ↓ صَارُورَآءُ , (Sgh, K,) the last like عَاشُورَآءُ, mentioned on the authority of Ks, (TA,) A man who has not performed the pilgrimage to Mekkeh: (S, M, A, Msb, K:) so called from صَرٌّ, signifying the “ act of confining, withholding, hindering, or preventing; ” (TA;) or because the person so called refrains from expending of his property in pilgrimage: (Msb:) you say also, اِمْرَأَةٌ صَرُورَةٌ a woman who has not performed the pilgrimage to Mekkeh: (S, Msb:) pl. ↓ صَرَارٌ and ↓ صَرَارَةٌ : (K:) [or, rather, the former is a coll. gen. n., of which صَرَارَةٌ is the n. of un.; and the latter is a quasi-pl. n., like صَحَابَةٌ, as well as n. un. of صَرَارٌ:] Fr cites, from certain of the Arabs, ↓ صَرَارٌ as used collectively; and one of the number is termed ↓ صَرَارَةٌ : (S:) each of the forms ending with the relative ى receives the dual and pl. and fem. inflections: and accord. to IAar, the forms preceding those receive also the dual and pl. inflections: (M, * TA:) and some say that صَوَارِيرُ is pl. of ↓ صَارُورَةٌ : (TA:) or ↓ صَارُورَةٌ and ↓ صَارُورٌ , (M,) or صَرُورَةٌ, (Lh, S, M, A, Msb,) as occurring in the poetry of En-Nábighah, (Yaakoob, S,) not used without ة, (Lh, M,) or all the sing. forms above mentioned, (K,) signify one who has not married: (M, A, K:) or who has not had intercourse with women: as though he had determined (أَصَرَّ) upon relinquishing them: (Yaakoob, S, Msb: *) applied in like manner to a woman, and to a plurality of persons: (M, K:) the ة in صَرُورَةٌ applied to a man and to a woman is not to denote the fem. gender, but to give the utmost intensiveness to the signification. (IJ, M.) ― -b2- It is said in a trad., لَا صَرُورَةَ فِى الإِِسْلَامِ, (S, M,) meaning, accord. to A 'Obeyd, There is no abstinence from intercourse with women in El-Islám: (M, TA:) i. e., no one should say, I will not marry: (TA:) thus he makes صرورة a noun signifying an accident: but it is better known as an epithet: (M:) and IAth says that the meaning is, he who slays another in the حَرَم [or sacred territory of Mekkeh] shall be slain: his saying, “ I am a صرورة; I have not performed the pilgrimage, and I know not the sacredness of the حَرَم; ” shall not be accepted of him: for in the Time of Ignorance, the Kaabeh was a place of refuge.
