📖 Lane's Lexicon (Root: ترك)

[1] تَرَكَهُ , (S, M, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. تَرُكَ , (S, M,) inf. n. تَرْكٌ (S, M, Msb, K, &c.) and ترْكَانٌ, with kesr, (Fr, K,) He left it, forsook it, relinquished it, abandoned it, deserted it, or quitted it; either intentionally, and by choice, or by constraint, and of necessity: (Er-Rághib, TA:) he left it, forsook it, &c., as above; namely, a thing that he desired, or wished for, and also a thing that he did not desire, or did not wish for: (Ibn-'Arafeh, TA:) he left it, quitted it, went away from it, or departed from it; namely, a place: and he left him, forsook him, relinquished him, abandoned him, deserted him, quitted him, or separated himself from him: (Msb:) he cast it, or threw it, away, as a thing of no account; rejected it; discarded it; cast it off; left it off: (MF, TA:) he left it, left it alone, let it alone; ceased, desisted, forbore, or abstained, from it; neglected it, omitted it, or left it undone; syn. خَلَّاهُ; (S, A, O;) or وَدَعَهُ; (M, K;) as also ↓ اتّركهُ. (K. [But respecting this latter verb, see what follows.]) وَٱتْرُكِ البَحْرَ رَهْوًا, in the Kur xliv. 23, And leave thou the sea opened with a wide interval; or motionless, in the same state as before thy passing through it, and strike it not with thy rod, nor alter anything thereof; (Bd;) or motionless, parted asunder; (Jel;) so that the Egyptians may enter it; (Bd, Jel;) is an instance of the verb meaning leaving intentionally, and by choice: (Er-Rághib, TA:) and كَمْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ جَنَّاتٍ وَعُيُونٍ, in the next verse, How many gardens and springs did they leave! (Jel,) is an instance of the verb meaning leaving by constraint, and of necessity. (Er-Rághib, TA.) In a phrase such as تَرَكَ حَقَّهُ, meaning He made his right, or due, or claim, to be null, or he rejected it, and such as تَرَكَ رَكْعَةٌ مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ, meaning He neglected, omitted, or left unperformed, a ركعة, of the prayer, [it is said (but I think it doubtful) that] the verb, having an ideal substantive for its objective complement, is used metaphorically. (Msb.) ↓ قَالَ فِيهِ فَمَا ٱتَّرَكَ means مَا تَرَكَ شَيْئًا [i. e. He strove, laboured, or exerted himself, (اِجْتَهَدَ,) in it, and neglected not, or omitted not, anything in his power]: the verb is of the measure اِفْتَعَلَ. (S.) مَنْ أَوْصَى بِالثُّلُثِ وَلَمْ يَتَّرِكْ ↓ شَيْئًا is a mistake for ولم يَتْرُكْ شَيْئًا, or ولم ↓ يَتَّرِكْ without شَيْئًا, or فَمَا ٱتَّرَكَ; for this verb is not trans., except, sometimes, in poetry; and the meaning is, وَلَمْ يَتْرُكْ فِيمَاأُذِنَ لَهُ فِيهِ شَيْئًا [i. e. He who bequeaths the third of his property, and does not omit anything of what he is allowed (to leave, or anything of the third part, for this is all that he is allowed to bequeath)]: it is from the saying ↓ فَعَلَ فَمَا ٱتَّرَكَ [He did such a thing, and neglected not, or omitted not, anything]. (Mgh.) You say also, تَرَكَ المَيِّتُ مَالًا, i. e. The deceased left property. (Msb.) ― 2-b2- وَتَرَكْنَا عَلَيْهِ فِى الآخِرِينَ, (K,) in the Kur [xxxvii. 76 &c.], (TA,) means And we have perpetuated (K, Jel, TA) to him a eulogy among the later generations (Jel, TA) of the prophets and peoples to the day of resurrection, [namely,] Salutation &c. (Jel.) ― 2-b3- التَّرْكُ is also syn. with الجَعْلُ, (Lth, K, TA,) in some instances; (Lth, TA;) as though it had two contr. significations: (K:) [i. e.,] when تَرَكَ is doubly trans., it has the meaning of صَيَّرَ, (MF, TA,) or جَعَلَ. (TA.) So in the saying, تَرَكْتُ الحَبْلَ شَدِيدًا I made, or rendered, the rope strong; or made it, or caused it, to be, or become, strong. (TA.) So too in the Kur ii. 16, وَتَرَكَهُمْ فِى ظُلُمَاتٍ And maketh, or causeth, them to be in darknesses. (Ksh, Bd, MF.) And sometimes one says of any action that has come at last to a certain state, مَا تَرَكْتُهُ كَذَا [I did not make it, or cause it, to be thus]. (TA.) ＝ 1-A2- تَرِكَ, aor. تَرَكَ , (IAar, K,) inf. n. تَرْكٌ, (TK,) He (a man, IAar) married, i. e. took to wife, a تَرِيكَة, (IAar, K,) meaning a woman that had remained a virgin, unmarried, until she had become of middle age, or long after she had attained to puberty, in the house, or tent, of her parents. (TA.)
