رجّم القَبْرَ , inf. n. تَرْجِيمٌ , He placed upon the grave رُجَم [meaning large stones, to make a gibbous covering to it]. (TA.) It is related in a trad. of 'Abd-Allah Ibn-Mughaffal, that he said, لَا تُرَجِّمُوا قَبْرِى , i. e. Place not ye upon my grave رُجَم ; meaning thereby that they should make his grave even with the ground, not gibbous and elevated: the verb is thus correctly, with tesh-deed: but the relaters of trads. say, ↓ لا تَرْجُمُوا قبرى : (S:) [and it is said that] القَبْرَ ↓ رَجَمَ , (K, TA,) aor. رَجُمَ , inf. n. رَجْمٌ , (TA,) signifies عَلَّمَهُ , (K,) i. e. He put a tombstone to the grave: (TK:) or he placed upon the grave رِجَام [a pl., like رُجَم , of رُجْمَة ]: (K:) or, accord. to Aboo-Bekr, لَا قَبْرِى ↓ تَرْجُمُوا means Wail not ye at my grave; i. e. say not, at it, what is unseemly; from الرَّجْمُ signifying “ the act of reviling. ” (TA.)
