And عِرْقٌ signifies also The root, origin, or source, of anything: (Ḳ, TA:) and the basis thereof. (TA.) [And particularly The origin of a man, considered as the root from which he springs: hence عِرْقُ الثَّرَى is said to be applied by Imra-el-Ḳeys to Adam, as the root, or source, of mankind; or to Ishmael, as, accord. to some, the root, or source, of all the Arabs: (see “Le Diwan d'Amro'lkais,” p. 33 of the Ar. text, and p. 103 of the Notes:) and the pl.] أَعْرَاقٌ signifies the ancestors of a man.

[of mult.] عُرُوقٌ (O, Mṣb, Ḳ) and عِرَاقٌ (Ḳ) and [of pauc.] أَعْرَاقٌ. (Mṣb, Ḳ.) [Hence it may be applied to A spermatic duct: and hence, app.,] it is said in a trad., عَلَيْكُمْ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ مَحْسَمَةٌ لِلْعِرْقِ, meaning † [Keep ye to fasting, for it is] a cause, or means, of stopping venereal intercourse: or an impediment to venery, and a cause of diminishing the seminal fluid, and of stopping venereal intercourse or passion.

عِرْقُ مَضَنَّةٍ and عِلْقُ مَضَنَّةٍ (the latter of which is that commonly known, TA) signify A thing of which one is tenacious; (O;) a thing held in high estimation, of which one is tenacious, (Ṣ and Ḳ and TA in art. ضن,) and for which people vie in desire: (TA in that art.:) but [said to be] used only in a case of negation: one says, مَا هُوَ عِنْدِى بِعِرْقِ مَضَنَّةٍ, meaning It is not, in my estimation, a thing of any value, or worth. (TA.)

عَرَقٌ Sweat; i. e. the moisture, or fluid, that exudes (Ṣ,* O,* Ḳ, TA) from the skin of an animal; (Ḳ, TA;) or the water of the skin, that runs from the roots of the hair: a gen. n.; having no pl.; (TA;) or no pl. of it has been heard: (Mṣb:) Lth says, I have not heard a pl. of العَرَقُ; but if it be pluralized, it should be, accord. to analogy, أَعْرَاقٌ. (O, TA.)

It is metaphorically used [in a similar sense] in relation to other things than animals. (Ḳ.) [Thus] it signifies The [exuded] moisture of a well: (Ḳ:) and in like manner of earth, or land, when the dew, or rain, has percolated in it (نَتَحَ فِيهَا) so that it has met the moisture thereof. (TA.)

And The دِبْس [or honey] of dates; (Ḳ;) because it flows, or exudes, from them. (TA.)

And Milk; because it flows in the ducts (عُرُوق) [thereof] until it comes at the last to the udder: (Ḳ:) or milk at the time of bringing forth; as in the saying, مَا أَكْثَرَ عَرَقَ غَنَمِكِ How abundant is the milk of thy sheep, or goats, at the time of their bringing forth! (AZ, O.) [See also عِرْقٌ, latter half.]

And Advantage, profit, utility, or benefit: (O, Ḳ, TA; in [several of] the copies of the second of which, النَّقْعُ is erroneously put for النَّفْعُ: TA:) and a recompense, or reward: (Ḳ, TA; in some copies of the former of which, التُّرَابُ is erroneously put for الثَّوَابُ: TA:) or a little thereof; (Ḳ, TA;) likened to عَرَق [as meaning “sweat”]. (TA.) عَرَقُ الخِلَالِ means A thing that one gives, or yields, for friendship: (Ṣ, O, TA:) or a reward for friendship. (TA.) A poet says, namely El-Hárith Ibn-Zuheyr, describing a sword named النُّون, (O, TA,) belonging to Málik Ibn-Zuheyr, which Hamal Ibn-Bedr took from him on the day when he slew him, and which El-Hárith took from Hamal when he slew him, (TA,)

* وَيُخْبِرُهُمْ مَكَانَ النُّونِ مِنِّى *

* وَمَا أُعْطِيتُهُ عَرَقَ الخِلَالِ *

[And he shall tell them the place of En-Noon, from me, and that I was not given it as a reward for friendship]; meaning, that I took this sword by force. (O, TA. [In the Ṣ, the former hemistich of this verse is given differently, and, as is said in the TA, erroneously.])

لَقِيتُ مِنْ فُلَانٍ عَرَقَ القِرْبَةِ (which is a prov., TA) means [I experienced from such a one] hardship, as expl. by Aṣ, who says that he knew not the origin thereof, (Ṣ, O,) or difficulty, or distress, as expl. by IDrd: (O:) and it is said that the عَرَق [or sweat] is of the man, not of the قِرْبَة [or water-skin]; and the origin of the saying is, that water-skins (قِرَب) are [generally] carried only by female slaves that bear burdens, and by him who has no assistant; but sometimes a man of generous origin becomes poor, and in need of carrying them himself, and he sweats by reason of the trouble that comes upon him, and of shame; (Ṣ, O;) wherefore one says, تَجَشَّمْتُ لَكَ عَرَقَ القِرْبَةِ [expl. in art. جشم], (Ṣ,) or جَشِمْتُ إِلَيْكَ عَرَقَ القِرْبَةِ [likewise expl. in art. جشم]: accord. to Ks, the meaning is, I have suffered fatigue, and imposed upon myself difficulty, for thee, [or in coming to thee,] so that I have sweated like the sweating of the water-skin: or, accord. to AʼObeyd, I have imposed upon myself, in coming to thee, what no one has attained, and what will not be; because the قربة does not sweat: (O:) عَرَقُ القِرْبَةِ is a metonymical expression for hardship, and difficulty, or distress; because, when the قربة sweats, its odour becomes foul: or because it has no sweat; therefore it is as though one imposed upon himself an impossible thing: or it means the benefit of the قربة; (which is the flowing of its water, TA;) as though one imposed upon himself such a task that he became in need of the water of the قربة, i. e. of journeying to it; or it means a سَفِيفَة [or plaited suspensory] which the carrier of the قربة puts over his chest [when carrying the قربة on his back]: (Ḳ:) accord. to IAạr, it signifies the suspensory (مِعْلَاق) by means of which the قربة is carried; as also عَلَقُهَا; (O, TA;) the ر being substituted for ل: (TA: [see art. ر:]) but he says also that عَرَقُ القِرْبَةِ means one's sweating with the قربة by reason of the difficulty, or trouble, of carrying it; and عَلَقُهَا, that by which it is tied, or bound, and then suspended: (L, TA:) the former is also said to signify the عِرَاق↓ [q. v.] of the قربة, that is sewed around it: (TA:) or it means that one has imposed upon himself difficulty, or trouble, or fatigue, like that of the carrier of the قربة, who sweats beneath it by reason of its heaviness. (Ḳ.)

عَرَقٌ also signifies A heat; i. e. a single run, or a run at once, to a goal, or limit. (Ṣ, O, Ḳ.) One says, جَرَى الفَرَسُ عَرَقًا or عَرَقَيْنِ The horse ran a heat or two heats. (Ṣ, O.)

Also A row of horses, and of birds, (Ṣ, O, Mṣb, Ḳ,) and the like; (Ṣ, Mṣb;) and any things disposed in a row; (Ṣ, O, Ḳ, TA;) as alsoعَرَقَةٌ↓; (TA;) or this latter is the n. un.

(Ltl., O.) They said,اِسْتَأْصَلَ ٱللّٰهُ عَرْقَاتَهُمْ↓ and عِرْقَاتِهِمْ; if they pronounced the first letter with fet-ḥ, they so pronounced the last letter [before the pronoun]; and if they pronounced the former with kesr, they thus pronounced the latter, regarding the word as pl. ofعِرْقَةٌ↓: (Ḳ:) or, accord. to Lth, the Arabs are related to have said, اِسْتَأْصَلَ ٱللّٰهُ عِرْقَاتَهُمْ, meaning شَأْفَتَهُمْ [i. e. May God utterly destroy their race, stock, or family], pronouncing the ت with nasb because regarding the word as [a sing.] like سِعْلَاةٌ; or holding it to be pl. ofعِرْقَةٌ↓, but pronouncing the تَ thus like as they do in saying رَأَيْتُ بَنَاتَكَ: it is said, however, that this is a mistake; that only he should pronounce it thus who makes the word to be a sing. like سِعْلَاةٌ.

(See De Sacy's “Anthol. Gram.
