From Edward William Lane, An Arabic-English Lexicon (1863–1893), under the root صلى. Digitised by the Perseus Project (Tufts); Arabic decoded from Perseus's transliteration.

صَلَاهُ , (S, M, Msb, K,) aor. يَصْلِيهِ , (S, Msb, K,) inf. n. صَلْىٌ , (S, M, K,) He roasted, broiled, or fried, it, namely, flesh-meat, (S, M, Msb, K,) &c.; (S;) and صَلَاهُ فِى النَّارِ and عَلَى النَّارِ signify the same; and also he burned it. (TA.) And (so in the M, but in the K “ or ”) صَلَاهُ (M, K) فِى النَّارِ (M) He threw it into the fire to be burned; as also ↓ اصلاهُ ; and ↓ صلّاهُ , (M, K,) inf. n. تَصْلِيَةٌ ; (TA;) namely, flesh-meat. (M, K. [But see the next sentence.]) And صَلَاهُ النَّارَ and فِى النَّارِ and عَلَى النَّارِ , (M, K,) inf. n. صَلْىٌ and صُلِىٌّ and صِلِىٌّ ; (M;) and النَّارَ ↓ اصلاهُ , and النَّارَ ↓ صلّاهُ ; He made him to enter into the fire, and to remain, stay, dwell, or abide, therein: (M, K:) and فُلَانٌ النَّارَ ↓ صُلِّىَ [Such as one was made to enter into the fire, &c.]: (M:) [or] you say, صَلَيْتُ الرَّجُلَ نَارًا , meaning I made the man to enter fire and to be burned: and ↓ أَصْلَيْتُهُ , with ا , when you mean I threw him, or cast him, into the fire, as though intending burning [him]; as also ↓ صَلَّيْتُهُ , inf. n. تَصْلِيَةٌ . (S.) ― -b2- And صَلَيْتُ فُلَانًا , (T, TA,) or لِفُلَانٍ , (S, TA,) (tropical:) I laboured in a case, or an affair, desiring to calumniate, or slander, such a one therein, and to cause him to fall into destruction: (T, S, TA:) or صَلَيْتُهُ and صَلَيْتُ لَهُ both signify I calumniated, or slandered, him, and caused him to fall into destruction, (M, TA,) in consequence thereof: (M:) or, accord. to the K, صَلَى فُلَانًا , of which the inf. n. is صَلْىٌ , signifies he soothed, coaxed, wheedled, or cajoled, such a one: or deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, him: which meanings are not in any of the three lexicons above mentioned: accord. to the A, صَلَيْتُ بِفُلَانٍ [probably a mistranscription for لِفُلَانٍ ] means (tropical:) I framed a stratagem, or plot, to cause such a one to fall; there said to be tropical. (TA.) ― -b3- صَلَى يَدَهُ بِالنَّارِ [said in the TA to be a mistake]: see 2. -A2- صَلِىَ النَّارَ , (S, M, Msb, K,) and بِالنَّارِ , (M, Msb, K,) aor. يَصْلَى , (S, Msb, * K, *) inf. n. صَلًى , (Msb,) or صُلِىٌّ , (S, K, [ صَلْيًا in the CK being a mistranscription for صُلِيًّا ,]) or both, (M,) and صِلِىٌّ and صِلَا=ءٌ , (M, K,) and accord. to the K صَلَا=ءٌ , but this is a mistake for صَلًى , (TA,) He was, or became, burned [by the fire]: (S:) or he endured, or suffered, the heat of the fire; as also النَّارَ ↓ تصلّى : (M, K:) or he felt the heat of the fire: (Msb:) and one says ↓ تصلّى حَرَّ النَّارِ and ↓ اصطلاهُ [in this last sense or in the sense next preceding]: (Ham p. 792:) and صَلِىَ النَّارَ he entered into the fire: (TA in art. بله : see an ex. voce بَلْهَ :) or, accord. to Er-Rághib, صَلِىَ بِالنَّارِ means he was tried ( بُلِىَ ) by fire, or by the fire; and so بِكَذَا (assumed tropical:) [by such a thing, as though by fire]. (TA.) [In the Kur, in which are many exs. of it, (iv. 11, xiv. 34, xvii. 19, &c.,) it is always trans. by itself, without بِ .] And صَلِىَ بِالأَمْرِ , (S, M, *) and بِالحَرْبِ ; (S;) and الأَمْرَ ↓ تصلّى , and الحَرْبَ ; (M;) He endured, or suffered, the heat, and severity, or vehemence, of the affair, or case, and of the war, or fight: (S, M:) Aboo-Zubeyd says, حَرَّ حَرْبِهِمُ ↓ فَقَدْ تَصَلَّيْتُ المَقْرُورُ مِنْ قَرَسِ ↓ كَمَا تَصَلَّى [And I have suffered the heat and vehemence of their war, like as he who is affected with cold suffers in consequence of coldest and most abundant hoar-frost]. (M.) -A3- [It is said that] صَلِىَ الرَّجُلُ signifies also لَزِمَ [i. e. The man kept to, or clave to, a thing]; and so ↓ اصطلى : whence Zj holds صَلَاةٌ [expl. in art. صلو ] to be derived; because it is a keeping, or cleaving, to that which God has appointed: and hence also, [it is said,] فِى النَّارِ ↓ مَنْ يُصَلَّى , i. e. يلزم [app. يُلْزَمُ , meaning مَنْ يُلْزَمُ النَّارَ He who is made to keep, or cleave, to the fire; nearly agreeing with صَلَّاهُ النَّارَ as expl. above from the M and K]. (TA.) -A4- And صَلَيْتُ الظَّهْرَ means I struck, or beat, that part of the back which is called صَلًا : or I hit that part: but this is extr.; for by rule it should be صَلَوْتُهُ , like as Hudheyl say. (M. [See 1 in art. صلو .])

Show the full entry (18 passages)

صَلَّىَ see 1, second sentence; and third sentence in three places; and last sentence but one. ― -b2- One says also, صلّى يَدَهُ بِالنَّارِ , (M, TA,) accord. to the K ↓ صَلَى , [without teshdeed,] but this is wrong, as is shown by a verse cited in the M, (TA,) He warmed his hand with the fire. (M, K, TA.) [And it is said in the TA that صلا ظَهْرَهُ بالنهر means أَدْفَأَهُ : but I think that the right reading is صلّى ظَهْرَهُ بِالنَّمِرَةِ , i. e. He warmed his back with the woollen garment called نَمِرَة .] ― -b3- And صَلَّيْتُ العَصَا بِالنَّارِ I made the staff supple, and straightened it, by means of fire: (S:) or صلّى العَصَا عَلَى النَّارِ , (M, K,) inf. n. تَصْلِيَةٌ ; (K;) and ↓ تصلّاها ; he parched and darkened the staff upon the fire; syn. لَوَّحَهَا : (M, K:) or صلّى العَصَا he straightened the staff by turning it round over the fire: (T in art. دوم : see an ex. in a verse cited in that art., conj. 10:) and صَلَّيْتُ القَنَاةَ I straightened the spear-shaft by means of fire: (A, TA:) and صَلَّيْتُ العُودَ بِالنَّارِ I rendered supple the stick, or branch, by means of fire. (Msb.)

أَصْلَىَ see 1, second sentence; and third sentence in two places.

تَصَلَّىَ see the next paragraph, in two places: ― -b2- see also 1, latter half, in five places: ― -b3- and see 2, last sentence.

اصطلى He warmed himself (M, K) بِالنَّارِ [by means of the fire]: (M:) one says, اِصْطَلَيْتُ بِالنَّارِ and بِهَا ↓ تَصَلَّيْتُ [app. meaning I warmed myself by means of the fire]: (S:) or اصطلى النَّارَ and بِالنَّارِ mean he became warm by means of the fire: and بِالنَّارِ ↓ تصلّى , he became burnt by the fire. (MA.) Hence, in the Kur [xxvii. 7 and xxviii. 29], لَعَلَّكُمْ تَصْطَلُونَ [May-be ye will warm yourselves]: (TA:) in relation to which it is said that the time was winter, and therefore الاِصْطِلَا=ء was needed. (M, TA.) ― -b2- It is also said of the chameleon, as meaning He repaired to the sun. (M and L in art. شقذ : see an ex. in a verse cited voce شَقَذَانٌ .) ― -b3- And one says of a courageous man, with whom one cannot cope, لَا يُصْطَلَى بِنَارِهِ [lit. One cannot warm himself by means of his fire; meaning (assumed tropical:) one cannot approach him when he is inflamed with rage, especially in fight, or battle]. (S.) The phrase may be also used satirically, as meaning (assumed tropical:) One will not seek his hospitality. (Meyd. [See Freytag's Arab. Prov. ii. 588.]) ― -b4- See also 1, latter half, in two places.

صَلًى : see صَلَا=ءٌ .

صَلَا=ءٌ : see صَلَايَةٌ .

صِلَا=ءٌ Roasted, broiled, or fried, flesh-meat. (S, M, K.) ― -b2- And, as also ↓ صَلًى , (S, M, K,) the former with kesr and the latter with fet-h, (S,) Fuel; (S, * M, K;) syn. وَقُودٌ ; (M, K, TA; [in the CK, erroneously, وُقُود ;]) i. e. مَا تُوقَدُ بِهِ النَّارُ ; (TA;) you say صِلَا=ءُ النَّارِ and صَلَى النَّارِ : (S:) or both signify fire: (M, Mgh, K:) or صِلَا=ءٌ signifies the heat of fire. (Msb.) One says, هُوَ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ الصِّلَا=ءِ فِى الشِّتَا=ءِ [It, or he, is better than fire in winter]. (TA.)

صَلِىٌّ : see مَصْلِىٌّ .

صَلَا=ءَةٌ : see what next follows.

صَلَايَةٌ and ↓ صَلَا=ءَةٌ , (S, M, Mgh, K,) the latter with ء because ↓ صَلَا=ءٌ is used as the pl., [or rather coll. gen. n.,] but not by those who say صَلَايَةٌ , (Sb, M,) [for] the pl. [of this] is صُلِىٌّ and صِلِىٌّ (K) and صَلَايَاتٌ , (MA,) i. q. فِهْرٌ [i. e. A stone such as fills the hand; or of the size of that with which one bruises and breaks walnuts and the like]: (S:) or a thing with which perfume is bruised, brayed, or pounded: (M, K:) or a stone upon which one bruises, or powders, (MA, Mgh,) perfume or some other thing; (Mgh;) that with which [not upon which] one does so being called مِدْوَكٌ . (MA.) Imra-el-Keys [in a verse of his Mo'allakah, (see EM p. 45,) as some relate it,] uses the phrase صَلَايَةُ حَنْظَلِ , because colocynths, when they have become dry, are split therewith. (S. [But there are two other readings, صَرَايَة and صَرَابَة .]) ― -b2- Also, (K,) as being likened thereto, (TA,) (assumed tropical:) The forehead. (K.) ― -b3- And the former word, A rough, rugged, سَرِيحَة [or long strip] of [high ground such as is termed] قُفّ . (ISh, Az, TA.)

صِلِّيَانٌ : see art. صل .

[ صَالٍ is expl. by Freytag as meaning Heated or warmed (“ calefactus ”), and burnt: and the pl. is said by him to be صُلِىٌّ : but he names no authority: if this be correct, it must be a possessive epithet from صَلِىَ .]

صَالِيَةٌ A support for the cooking-pot, such as is termed أُثْفِيَّةٌ . (MA.)

مَصْلِىٌّ Roasted, broiled, or fried; as also ↓ صَلِىٌّ . (Ham pp. 13-14. [Both of these words are there without any syll. signs.]) It is said in a trad., أُتِىَ بِشَاةٍ مَصْلِيَّةٍ i. e. A roasted sheep, or goat, was brought. (S, TA.) ― -b2- And صَيْحَانِيَّةٌ مَصْلِيَّةٌ means [A date of the sort called صَيْحَانِىّ ] dried in the sun. (A, TA.)

أَرْضٌ مَصْلَاةٌ A land abounding with the plant called صِلِّيَان . (K.)

مِصْلَاةٌ A snare that is set up for birds &c.: (S, M: *) pl. مَصَالٍ . (S, M.) It is said in a trad., اـِنَّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فُخُوخًا وَمَصَالِىَ (S) or مَصَالِىَ وَفُخُوخًا i. e. [Verily to the Devil belong snares and traps] with which he catches men. (M.)

مُصْطَلًى The limbs of a man, or his arms and legs and face and every prominent part, which become cold at the time of death, and which are warmed at the fire: (AHeyth, L in art. برد :) or the face and extremities. (Z, TA.) One says, بَرَدَ المَوْتُ عَلَى مُصْطَلَاهُ . (AHeyth, L in art. برد : see 1 in that art.)
