سَقَاهُ , aor.
يَسْقِيهِ, (K,) inf. n.
سَقْىٌ; (TA;
[see also
سِقَايَةٌ, which is likewise said to be an
inf. n. of the same verb;]) and ↓
سقّاهُ, (K,) with
teshdeed; (TA;) and ↓
اسقاهُ; (K, TA; [in the
CK, erroneously,
اسْتَقاهُ;]) all have one meaning;
(TA;) [i. e.
He gave him to drink, generally
water, often milk, and sometimes poison or some
other thing: and the first often signifies
he
watered him, namely, a beast; and in like manner
seed produce &c., i. e.
irrigated it; as will be
shown by what follows:] or
سَقَاهُ [is said when
you mean
he gave him drink]
لِشَفَتِهِ [
to his lip],
(S,) or
بِالشَّفَةِ [
by means of the lip], as also
↓
سقّاهُ; and ↓
اسقاهُ means
he directed him to
water, (K,) or
he watered (
سَقَى)
his cattle or
his land: (S, * K:) or both of them, (K, TA,)
i. e.
سَقَاهُ and ↓
اسقاهُ, (TA,) signify
he assigned
to him, or
gave to him, (
جَعَلَ لَهُ,)
water, (K,
TA,) or
drink, or
water for irrigation; so that
سَقَاهُ is like
كَسَاهُ, and ↓
اسقى is like
آَلْبَسَ, as Sb
says: (TA:) or, as some say,
سَقَيْتُهُ I gave him
water to his mouth; and ↓
أَسْقَيْتُهُ,
I assigned to
him, or
gave to him, (
جَعَلْتُ لَهُ,)
drink, or
water
for irrigation, that he might do as he would;
and like them are
كَسَوْتُهُ and
أَكْسَيْتُهُ: (Ham
p. 45:) Er-Rághib says that
السَّقْىُ signifies
the
giving one drink; and ↓
الإِسْقَآءُ,
the giving one
drink so that he may take it howsoever he will;
so that the latter is more ample in meaning than
the former. (TA.) Both
سَقَى and ↓
اسقى are
sometimes used in relation to what is in the bellies
of camels or other cattle; [meaning their milk;]
as in the Kur [xxiii. 21], where it is said,
نُسْقِيكُمْ ↓
مِمَّا فِى بُطُونِهَا, or
نَسْقِيكُمْ, [i. e.
We give
you to drink of what is in their bellies,] accord.
to different readings. (TA.) One says,
سَقَاهُ المَآءَ,
[
He gave him to drink water, or
the water,]
inf. n. as above: (Mgh:) and
سَقَّيْتُهُ ↓
المَآءَ [
I
gave him to drink water, or
the water, much, or
often]: the teshdeed denotes muchness, or frequency. (S.) [See also a tropical usage of the
former verb in a verse cited in p. 85, col. 3: and
another, from Tarafeh, in p. 134, col. 3. One
says also,
سَقَى المَآءَ, without a second objective
complement,
He supplied, or
gave, water, or
the
water.] And
سَقَيْتُ الزَّرْعَ, [
I watered, or
irrigated, the seed-produce,] inf. n. as above; as also
↓
أَسْقَيْتُهُ, (Msb.) And
سَقَيْتُ فِى القِرْيَةِ and
أَسْقَيْتُ ↓
فِيهَا [
I poured water into the water-skin]: a poet says, [in one of my copies of the S,
Dhu-r-Rummeh,]
وَمَاشَنَّتَا خَرْقَآءَ وَاهٍ كِلَاهُمَا
سَقَى فِيهِمَا مُسْتَعْجِلٌ لَمْ تَبَلَّلَا
بِأَنْبَعَ مِنْ عَيْنَيْكَ لِلدَّمْعِ كُلَّمَا
تَعَرَّفْتَ دَارًا أَوْ تَوَهَّمْتَ مَنْزِلَا
[
And two old and worn-out skins of an unskilful woman who has not sewed them well,
each of them unsound, into which a person in
haste has poured water, they not having been
previously
moistened, (
تَبَلَّلَا being for
تَتَبَلَّلَا,)
are not more liable to the shedding of their water
than are thine eyes to the shedding
of tears
whenever thou investigatest a dwelling or imaginest a place of alighting, or
abode]. (S.) [And
hence, app.,]
سَقَى فُلَانٌ فِى ذَكَرِهِ (assumed tropical:)
Such a one
became vehemently affected by sexual appetite.
(JK.) One says also,
سَقَاهُ ٱللّٰهُ الغَيْثَ and ↓
اسقاهُ
(S, Msb, * K)
God sent down rain to him, or
may
God send &c.: (K:) both of these verbs being
used by Lebeed in his saying,
سَقَى قَوْمِى بَنِى مَجْدٍ وَأَسْقَى
نُمَيْرًا وَالقَبَائِلَ مِنْ هِلَالِ
[
May He send down rain to my people, the sons
of Mejd, and may He send down rain to Numeyr,
and the tribes of Hilál]. (S.) [Hence,] one
says,
سَقَى ٱللّٰهُ عَصْرَ الشَّبِيبَةِ (assumed tropical:) [
May God freshen
as with rain the times, or
mornings, or
afternoons,
of youth, or
young manhood]. (A and TA in art.
شب.) And
سَقَيْتُ فُلَانًا, (S,) and ↓
أَسْقَيْتُهُ, and
↓
سَقَّيْتُهُ, (S, K, *) which last is the form in most
repute as expressive of a prayer, (Ham p. 45,)
and of which the inf. n. is
تَسْقِيَةٌ, (K,)
I said to
such a one سَقَاكَ ٱللّٰهُ [
May God send down rain
to thee], (S and K in explanation of the second
and third,) or
سَقْيًا [which virtually means the
same, for
سَقَاكَ ٱللّٰهُ سَقْيًا]: (S in explanation of the
first and second, and K in explanation of the
second and third:) [or,] accord, to some, one
says
سَقَيْتُهُ when it [which he gives, i. e. water or
the like,] is in his hand; [agreeably with the first
explanation in this art.;] and ↓
أَسْقَيْنُهُ signifies
I
prayed for him, saying سَقْيًا لَكَ. (Msb.) ―
2-b2-
سَقَى بَطْنُهُ, (JK, S, MA, K,) inf. n.
سَقِىٌ; (JK,
S;) and
سُقِىَ, (JK, IAth, TA,) or
سَقِى, aor.
يَسْقَى, inf. n.
سِقًى or
سَقًى; (MA;) and ↓
استسقى;
(JK, S, K; [in my copy of the Msb
استقى,
which I doubt not to be a mistranscription, as the
verb most commonly known in the sense here
following is
استسقى, and as this is not there
mentioned;])
His belly [
was, or
became, diseased
with dropsy, i. e.]
had yellow water [meaning
serum] (JK, S, Msb, K, * TA)
apparent in it,
(JK,) or
collected in it; (S, K, TA;) for which
there is scarcely, or never, any cure; (Msb,
TA;)
his belly became swollen [
with dropsy].
MA.) ―
2-b3- [In the phrase written in the CK
سُقِىَ قُلْبُهُ عَدَاوَةًُ, the verb is correctly
سُقِىَ:
see 2.] ―

سَقَىالعَرَقُ The sweat flowed without
stopping. (TA.) ―
2-b5-
سَقَى التَّوْبَ, and ↓
سقّاهُ,

made the garment, or
piece of cloth, to imbibe a
dye. (TA.) ―

He tempered
steel; and is used in this sense in the present day:
and accord. to a reading in one of my copies of
the S, in art.
شرخ, ↓
سقّى also has this meaning.]
