paused, (ISk, S, K,)
and acted, or
behaved, with deliberation or
in a
leisurely manner, (K,)
and withheld himself.

رَبَعَ عَلَيْهِ, (K,) inf. n.
رَبْعٌ, (TA,) (assumed tropical:)

The phrases
اِرْبَعْ عَلَى نَفْسِكَ and

(S, K) and
اربع عَلَيْكَ (K) are from
رَبَعَ in the
sense of “ he paused, ” &c., (S, K,) as explained
by ISk, (S,) [or in one of the senses following
that,] meaning (assumed tropical:)
Deal thou gently with thyself;
moderate thyself; restrain thyself: (S, TA:) or
behave thou with deliberation, or
in a leisurely
manner: or the second of these phrases may
mean
continue thou notwithstanding thy slight
lameness: or it may be from
رَبَعَ الحَجَرَ, [q. v.
infrà,] meaning
take thou it, or
reach it, notwithstanding thy slight lameness. (TA.) The
phrase
اِرْبَعِى بِنَفْسِكِ, or
عَلَى نَفْسِكِ, in the trad.
of Subey'ah El-Aslameeyeh, accord. to two
different relations, admits of two interpretations:
one is, (assumed tropical:)
Pause thou, and wait for the completion
of the عِدَّة [q. v.]
of decease; and this is accord. to
the persuasion of those who say that her
عدّة is
the more remote of the two periods, which is the
persuasion of 'Alee and I'Ab: the second is, from
رَبَعَ الرّجُلُ signifying “ the man had, or obtained,
abundance of herbage, ” and the meaning is,
(assumed tropical:)
relieve thou thyself, and release thyself from the
straitness of the عدّة,
and the evil of thy condition;
and this is accord. to the persuasion of those who
hold that her
عدّة is the nearer of the two periods;
and hence 'Omar said, “ If she bring forth when
her husband is on his bier, meaning, not buried,
it is allowable for her to marry. ” (TA.) It is
also said, in another trad.,
لَا يَرْبَعُ عَلَى ظَلْعِكَ مَنْ
لَا يُحْزِنُهُ أَمْرُكَ, i. e. (assumed tropical:)
He will not restrain himself,
and be patient with thee, whom thy case does
not grieve. (TA.) And it is said in a prov.,
حَدِّثِ ٱمْرَأَةً حَدِيثَيْنِ فَإِنْ أَبَتْ فَٱرْبَعْ, i. e. (assumed tropical:)
Speak
thou to a woman twice; and if she refuse, abstain
thou: or, accord. to one relation, it is ↓
فَأَرْبِعْ: and
accord. to another,
فَٱرْبَعْهُ, i. e.,
then add; for she
is very weak in understanding;
if she understand
not, then make thou the two speeches to be four:
Aboo-Sa'eed says,
فَإِنْ لَمْ تَفْهَمْ بَعْدَ الأَرْبَعَةِ فَٱلْمِرْبَعَة,
i. e., [
and if she understand not after the four,
then]
the stick [is to be used; or,
then use thou
the stick]: the prov. applies to the hearing and
answering in an evil manner. (TA.) You say
also,
رَبَعَتْ عَلَى عَقْلِ فُلَانٍ وَكَسَرَ فِيهَا رِبَاعَهُ, inf. n.
رِبَاعَةٌ, (tropical:) [app.
She behaved in a gentle and coaxing
manner so as to get the better of the reason, or
understanding, of such a one, and he sold his
houses one after another to expend upon her;]
i. e.,
he expended upon her all that he possessed,
so that he sold his dwellings. (TA. [The
و before
كسر is not in the TA; but as it seems to have
been dropped by inadvertence, I have supplied
it.]) ＝
