(TA.)

* أَنَا ٱبْنُ جَلَا وَطَلَّاعُ الثَّنَايَا *

* مَتَى أَضِعَ العِمَامَةَ تَعْرِفُونِى *

[I am a man well known, celebrated, or notable,, &c.; and he who rises to eminences, or who is accustomed to embark in, or surmount, lofty and difficult things: when I put down the turban, ye will know me]. (Ṣ, TA.) Sb says, (TA,) جلا in this case is a verb in the pret. tense: ʼEesà Ibn-ʼOmar says that when a man is named قَتَلَ or ضَرَبَ or the like, the word is imperfectly decl.; and he adduces, in evidence, this verse: others say that جلا may be here without tenween because it is imitative of a phrase, as though the poet said, أَنَا ٱبْنُ الَّذِى يُقَالُ لَهُ جَلَا الأُمُورِ: (Ṣ, TA:) accord. to IB, it is without tenween because it is a verb with its agent [implied in it].

جَلَآءٌ A thing, an affair, or a case, that is apparent, manifest, plain, or evident. (Ṣ, Ḳ, TA.)

And Acknowledgment, or confession: so in the saying of Zuheyr:

* فَإِنَّ الحَقَّ مَقْطَعُهُ ثَلَاثٌ *

* يَمِينٌ أَوْ نِفَارٌ أَوْ جَلَآءٌ *

[For verily the means of deciding the truth are three: an oath, and incongruity of circumstances, and acknowledgment, or confession]: (Ṣ:) but Az writes the last word جِلَآء↓, with kesr to the ج, as meaning an evidence, or a proof, and witnesses; from مُجَالَاةٌ [inf. n. of 3, q. v.]. (TA.)

أَقَمْتُ عِنْدَهُ جَلَآءَيَوْمِى, (Ḳ, TA,) or جَلَآءَ يَوْمٍ, (so in some copies of the Ḳ,) [I remained with him, or at his abode,] during the whiteness of my, or a, day. (Zj, Ḳ, TA.)

(Mgh.)

مَاجِلَاؤُهُ What is his honourable name, or surname, (Ṣ,) or his good surname, (Ḳ,) by which he is addressed? (Ṣ, Ḳ.)

جَلِىٌّ Clear, unobscured, exposed to view, displayed, laid open, disclosed, or uncovered: apparent, or plainly apparent, overt, conspicuous, manifest, notorious, plain, obvious, or evident: (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ, TA:) جَالٍ thus used has not been heard. (Er-Rághib, TA.) It is applied as an epithet to information, or tidings, (Mṣb, TA,) and to analogy, or rule. (TA.)

عَيْنٌ جَلِيَّةٌ A seeing eye. (IB, TA.)

(Mgh, Mṣb.)

Hence, (Mṣb,) جَالِيَةٌ↓ [as a subst.] is applied to The poll-tax that is exacted from the persons last mentioned above; (Ṣ, Mgh, Mṣb;) as also جَالَّةٌ: (Ṣ:) first, in this sense, applied to that which was exacted from the people expelled from Arabia by ʼOmar. (Mṣb.) You say, اُسْتُعْمِلَ فُلَانٌ عَلَى الجَالِيَةِ [Such a one was employed as collector of the poll-tax]. (Ṣ, Mgh, Mṣb.)

See also جَائِلٌ, in art. جول.
