(TA.) ― -b4- [Hence] one says, تَفَيَّأْتُ بِفَيْيءِكَ meaning (tropical:) I have had recourse to thee for protection. (A, TA.) ― -b5- تفيّأ is said of a branch or twig [as meaning It bent, in a languid manner]. (T, M, L, K, voce تَرَأَّدَ ; &c.)

(MF.) And The [tax, or tribute, termed] خَرَاج [q. v.]: (S, O, K:) frequently occurring in trads. as meaning such, of the possessions of the unbelievers, as accrues to the Muslims without war: (TA:) or such as is obtained from the believers in a plurality of gods after the laying-down of arms: (A 'Obeyd, Mgh and Msb voce غَنِيمَةٌ :) or such as God has restored [as though it were theirs of right] to the people of his religion, of the possessions of those who have opposed them, without fighting, either by the latter's quitting their homes and leaving them vacant to the Muslims, or by their making peace on the condition of paying a poll-tax or other money or property to save themselves from slaughter: such is termed فَىْء in the Kur-án.

(Msb.)

تَفِيْيءَةٌ , (M and K in art. تفأ ,) as also تَفِيَّةٌ , both mentioned by Lh, and the latter reckoned as a dial. var. of the former, (M in that art.,) and تَيءِفَّةٌ and اـِفُّ and اـِفَّةٌ and أَفَّةٌ and اـِفَّانٌ and أَفَّانٌ , (see art. اف ,)] The time of a thing: (M and K in art. تفأ :) one says, أَتَيْتُهُ عَلَى تَفِييءَةِ ذٰلِكَ I came to him at the time of that: (M in that art.:) and [by extension of the signification] one says, دَخَلَ عَلَى تَفِيءَةِ فُلَانٍ meaning أَثَرِهِ [i. e. He entered near after such a one; as though treading in his footsteps]: (K in the present art.:) the ت in تَفِيْيءَةٌ is an augmentative letter; the word being [originally] of the measure تَفْعِلَةٌ , but formed by transposition: Z says that the ت would not be augmentative if the composition of the word were as it is here, without transposition: that it is not of the measure تَفْعِلَةٌ from الفَىْءُ ; for, if it were, it would be of the same measure as تَهْيِيءَةٌ [i. e. it would be تَفْيِيءَةٌ ]; therefore, if not formed by transposition, it would be of the measure فَعِيلَةٌ [i. e. it would be from تفأ , as some hold it to be], because of the اـِعْلَال [or alteration for the sake of alleviating the sound, such as takes place in يَسِيرُ for يَسْيِرُ , which cannot be in a noun of the measure تَفْعِلَةٌ from a triliteral root like فيأ , whose medial radical is infirm], the last radical being hemzeh: but its formation by transposition from تَيءِفَّةٌ [originally تَأْفِفَةٌ ] to تَفِّيءَةٌ , which is then changed to تَفِيْيءَةٌ , as Z says in the “ Fáïk, ” is what determines the ت to be augmentative, and the [original] measure to be تَفْعِلَةٌ . (L and TA * in arts. تفأ and فيأ .)

مُفَا=ءٌ A thing that has been made a فَىْء [or spoil, &c.]. (TA.) And A person whose country, or province, or town, has been conquered, and become a فَىْء to the Muslims. (IKt, O, TA.) It is in a trad. of some of those who have gone before, ↓ لَا يُوءَمَّرُ مُفَا=ءٌ عَلَى مُفِىْءٍ , meaning An emancipated slave shall not be made governor over an Arabian; (K, TA;) or, as in the Nh [and O] and L, لا يَلِيَنَّ [shall by no means rule]; (TA;) as though it were said, none of the people of the Sawád (which was conquered by force and became a فَىْء to the Muslims) shall rule over the Companions (O, TA) and their next successors. (TA.)
