بِدْعٌ i. q. بَدِيعٌ↓, q. v., andمُبْتَدَعٌ↓; (Ṣ;) [but generally used as an epithet in which the quality of a subst. is predominant; signifying] A novelty; or thing existing for the first time: (Ḳ:) and i. q.بَدِيعٌ↓ andمُبْتَدِعٌ↓, a first doer; as though meaning one who has none among his fellows to share, or participate, with him in a thing, or an affair: (Mṣb:) pl. أَبْدَاعٌ.

And hence the saying in the Ḳur [xlvi. 8], قُلْ مَا كُنْتُ بِدْعًا مِنَ الرُّسُلِ (Ṣ, Mṣb, TA) Say thou, I am not the first who has been sent of the apostles: (Mṣb, TA:) or the meaning is, I am not an innovator among the apostles; inviting you to that to which they do not invite you; or able to do that which they were not able to do: and accord. to one reading, it is بِدَعًا↓; as being [a sing. epithet] like قِيَمٌ; or for ذَا بِدَعٍ [in which the latter word is pl. of بِدْعَةٌ].

بِدْعَةٌ An innovation; a novelty; anything originated, invented, or innovated; anything made, done, produced, caused to be or exist, or brought into existence, newly, for the first time, it not having been or existed before, and not after the similitude of anything pre-existing: (ISK:) a dissentient state or condition: (Mṣb:) a subst. from اِبْتِدَاعٌ, like رِفْعَةٌ from اِرْتِفَاعٌ, (Mgh, Mṣb,) and خِلْفَةٌ from اِخْتِلَافٌ: (Mgh:) subsequently and generally applied to an addition, or an impairment, in religion: (Mgh, Mṣb:) or a novelty, or an innovation, in religion, after the completion [thereof]: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) or an opinion declining, or swerving, from the right way, and an action, innovated after [the time of] the Prophet: (Lth, Ḳ:) or an action at variance with the Sunneh: (KT:) [generally a heretical innovation; or a new heresy: but] there is a بدعة not disapproved, termed بِدْعَةٌ مُبَاحَةٌ [an allowed, or allowable, innovation]; which is that whereof the goodness is attested by some principle in the law, or which is required to prevent some cause of evil; such as the Khaleefeh's seclusion of himself from the promiscuous classes of the people: (Mṣb:) there are two kinds of بدعة; namely بِدْعَةٌ هُدًى [an innovation of a right kind], and بِدْعَةٌ ضَلَالٍ [an innovation of an erroneous kind]. (IAth.)

بَدِيعٌ i. q. بِدْعٌ, which see in three places, (Ṣ, Mṣb,) andمُبْتَدَعٌ↓; [i. e.

(TA.) You say, جِئْتَ بِأَمْرٍ بَدِيعٍ Thou hast done a new thing; a wonderful thing; a thing unknown before: andأَمْرٌ بَادِعٌ↓ signifies the same as أَمْرٌ بَدِيعٌ. (TA.) And جَآءَ بِا لبَدِيعِ, (Ṣ,) or أَتَى بِالبَدَيعِ, (Ḳ,) said of a poet, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) He produced a new saying, or new poetry, not after the similitude of anything preceding. (TA.) And حَبْلٌ بَدشيعٌ A new rope: (AḤn:) or a rope begun to be twisted, not being yet a rope, but undone, then spun, then twisted again. (Ḳ.) And زِمَامٌ بَدِيعٌ A new nose-rein of a camel. (TA.)

(Ṣ.)

Fat; as an epithet: (Aṣ, Ḳ:) pl. بُدْعٌ. (Ḳ.)

Also i. q.مُبْتَدِعٌ↓ [An originator, inventor, or innovator; one who makes, does, produces, causes to be or exist, or brings into existence, newly, for the first time, and not after the similitude of anything pre-existing]: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ, like قَدِيرٌ in the sense of قَادِرٌ; from بَدَعَ. (TA.) [See also بِدْعٌ.] You say, اَللّٰهُ بَدِيعٌ السَّمٰوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ God is the Creator of the heavens and the earth, not after the similitude of anything pre-existing. (Aboo-Is-ḥáḳ, Ṣ.*) And hence البَدِيعُ is a name of God, meaning The Originator of the creation, according to his own will, not after the similitude of anything pre-existing. (TA.)

[بَدِيعَةٌ A new, and an admirable, or a wonderful, thing; and especially such in speech, or language, in poetry, and in answering, or replying: pl. بَدَائِعُ: see an ex. voce بَدِيهَةٌ.]
