(KL.) And جَلَبْتُ الشَّىْءَ إِلَى نَفْسِى andاِجْتَلَبْتُهُ↓ signify the same; (Ṣ;) i. e. † I brought, drew, attracted, or procured, the thing to myself. (PṢ.) [Hence,] ذَا مِمَّا يَجْلِبُ الإِخْوَانَ ‡ [This is of the things that bring, draw, attract, or procure, brothers, or friends]. (A, TA.) Andجَلَبَتُهُ جَوَالِبُ↓ الدَّهْرِ ‡ [The calamities of time, or of fortune, or of fate, brought, drew, or attracted, him, or it]. (A, TA.) [Hence also, accord. to some,] لَا جَلَبَ وَلَا جَنَبَ, a trad., explained as meaning, The owner of cattle shall not be required to drive them, or bring them, to the town, or country, in order that the collector may take from them the portion appointed for the poor-rate, but this shall be taken at the waters; and when the cattle are in the yards, they shall be left therein, and not brought forth to the place of pasture, for the collector to take that portion: or, as some say, ولا جنب means, nor shall one have a horse led by his side, in a race, in order that, when he draws near to the goal, he may tranfser himself to it, and so outstrip his fellow: and other explanations have been given: (Mṣb:) [accord. to some,] لا جلب here means, they shall not drive, or bring, their cattle to the collector of the portions appointed for the poor-rate in the place where he alights, but he shall himself come to their yards and take those portions: or [جلب here is from the verb جَلَبَ in a sense which will be explained below, and] the trad. relates to horse-racing, and means, one shall not cause his horse to be followed by a man crying out at it and chiding it; nor shall he have a horse without a rider led by his own horse, in order that, when he draws near to the goal, he may transfer himself to it, and outstrip upon it: (Mgh:) or الجَلَبُ, which is forbidden, means the collector's not coming to the people at their waters to take the portions appointed for the poor-rate, but ordering them to drive, or bring, their cattle to him: or it relates to contending for a stake, or wager, and means the mounting a man upon one's horse, and, when he has drawn near to the goal, following his horse and crying out at it, in order that it may outstrip; which is a kind of fraud: (Ṣ:) or it is used in both these cases: (AʼObeyd: [his explanations are virtually the same as those in the Ṣ:]) or the meaning of the trad. [so far as the former clause of it is concerned] is, that the contributions to the poor-rate shall not be driven, or brought, to the waters nor to the great towns, but shall be given in their places of pasture: or it means, [or rather الجلب means,] the collector's alighting in a place, and then sending a person, or persons, to drive, or bring, to him the cattle from their places, that he may take the portion thereof appointed for the poor-rate: or it [relates to horse-racing, and] means the sending forth a horse in the racecourse, and a number of persons' congregating, and crying out at it, in order that it may be turned from its course: or a man's following his horse, and spurring on behind it, and chiding it, and crying out at it: (Ḳ, TA:) or the shaking a thing behind a horse that is backward in a race, that it may be urged on thereby, and outstrip: or one's riding a horse, and leading behind him another, to urge it on, in contending for a stake, or wager: or the crying out at a horse from behind, and urging it to outstrip. (TA. See also 1 in art. جنب.)

جَلَبَ لأَهْلِهِ He gained or earned; sought or sought after or sought to gain [provisions, &c.; generally meaning he purveyed]; and exercised art or cunning or skill, in the management of his affairs; for his family; as alsoاجلب↓. (Lḥ, Ḳ.)

جَلَبُوا, aor. ـِ {يَجْلِبُ} and ـُ {يَجْلُبُ}, (Ḳ,) [inf. n. جَلَبٌ, and perhaps جَلَبَةٌ also;] andجلّبوا↓; (Ṣ, Ḳ;) andاجلبوا↓, (Ḳ,) inf. n. إِجْلَابٌ; (Mgh;) [the second of which is the most common;] They raised cries, shouts, noises, a clamour, (Ṣ, Mgh, TA,) or confused cries or shouts or noises. (Mgh, Ḳ.*) And جَلَبَ عَلَى فَرَسِهِ, (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ,) aor. ـُ {يَجْلُبُ}, (Ṣ, Mṣb,) inf. n. جَلَبٌ, (Ṣ,) or جَلْبٌ, (Mṣb,) He chid, or urged on, his horse; as alsoجلّب↓ andاجلب↓; (Ḳ;) the first, rare; the second and third, usual: (TA:) he cried out at his horse, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) from behind him, and urged him to outstrip [in a race], (Ṣ,) aor. ـُ {يَجْلُبُ} and ـِ {يَجْلِبُ}; (Ḳ; but this explanation is erased in the copy of the Ḳ in its author's handwriting, as being a repetition; and rightly, accord. to MF; though this requires consideration; TA;) as alsoاجلب↓: (Ṣ:) he urged his horse to run, by striking, or goading, or by crying out, or the like; as alsoاجلب↓: or, as some say, he led behind his horse that he was riding another horse to urge on the former, in contending [in a race] for a stake, or wager; as is shown in an explanation of the tradition cited above, لَا جَلَبَ وَلَا جَنَبَ. (TA.) It is said in the Ḳur [xvii. 66],وَأَجْلِبْ↓ عَلَيْهِمْ بِخَيْلِكَ وَرَجْلِكَ And raise thou confused cries against them, (Mgh,) or cry out against them, with thy forces riding and on foot. (Bḍ. But see another explanation in what follows.) And it is said in a wellknown prov., جَلَبَتْ جَلْبَةً ثُمَّ أَمْسَكَتْ It, i. e. a cloud (سَحَابَة), thundered, then refrained from raining: applied to a coward, who threatens, and then is silent: but accord. to some, it is with ح in the place of ج (MF. See art. حلب.)

[Hence,] جَلَبَ, aor. ـِ {يَجْلِبُ} and ـُ {يَجْلُبُ} andاجلب↓; He threatened with evil; (Ḳ, TA;) followed by an accus. (TA) [or, app., by عَلَى before the object]: or (so in the TA, but in some copies of the Ḳ “and,”) he collected a company, a troop, or an army. (Ḳ, TA.) [It is said that]وَأَجْلِبْ↓ عَلَيْهِمْ, in the Ḳur [xvii. 66], means And collect thou against them [thy forces], and threaten them with evil. (TA. But see another explanation above.) Andاجلبو↓ عَلَيْهِ signifies also They collected themselves together against him, (Ṣ, Ḳ,*) and aided one another; like احلبوا. (Ṣ.)

جَلَبَ عَلَيْهِ, aor. ـُ {يَجْلُبُ}, inf. n. جَلْبٌ, He committed a crime against him; or an offence for which he should be punished. (Ḳ,* TA.)

جَلَبَ, aor. ـِ {يَجْلِبُ} and ـُ {يَجْلُبُ}, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) It (a wound) healed: (Ḳ:) or it (an ulcer, Aṣ, or a wound, Ṣ) became covered with a skin in healing: (Aṣ, Ṣ:) as alsoاجلب↓. (Ṣ, L.)

جَلِبَ, aor. ـَ {يَجْلَبُ}, It [app. a company or troop] assembled, or became collected together. (Ḳ.)

see 1, in two places.

The inf. n. تَجْلِيبٌ also signifies The act of bringing together: or collecting. (KL.)

[جالب is explained by Golius, as on the authority of the KL, as meaning He helped, or assisted: but this is a mistake for حالب; for I find مُحَالَبَةٌ explained by يارى كردن in a copy of the KL, and the order of the words there shows that it is not a mistranscriptiou for مجالبة.]

اجلب: see 1, in eleven places, in the latter half of the paragraph.

Also His camels brought forth males; (Ṣ, Ḳ;) because the males that they produce are driven, or brought, from one place to another, and sold; opposed to احلب “his camels brought forth females:” (Ṣ:) and his camel brought forth a male. (TA.) أَجْلَبْتَ وَلَا أَحْلَبْتَ May thy camels bring forth males, and may they not bring forth females, is a form of imprecation against a man, implying a wish that he may lose the milk [that he would have otherwise]. (TA.)

He aided, helped, or assisted, another. (Ṣ, Ḳ.) [So, too, احلب.]

He put an amulet into a جُلْبَة [which must therefore signify the piece of skin in which an amulet is enclosed, as well as an amulet enclosed in a piece of skin: see مُجْلِبٌ]. (Ḳ.)

اجلب قَتَبَهُ, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) inf. n. إِجْلابٌ, (T,) He covered his قتب [or camel's saddle] (Ṣ, Ḳ) with a جُلْبَة, i. e., (Ṣ,) with a piece of fresh, moist skin, which he left upon it until it became dry [and tight]: (Ṣ, Ḳ:*) or he covered the head of his قتب with a piece of kid's, or lamb's, skin, and left it to dry upon it. (T.)

[تجلّب rendered by Golius Clamorem ac murmur excitavit, as on the authority of the Ḳ, I do not find in that lexicon nor in any other.]

انجلب It [a camel, sheep, goat, horse, captive, or slave, or a number of camels, &c., or any merchandise, (see 1, first sentence,)] was driven [or brought] from one place to another [or from one country or town to another, for the purpose of traffic]. (Ḳ.)

اجتلب: see 1, first and second sentences.

Also † He (a poet) took, or borrowed, from the poetry of another. (TA.)

And He sought or demanded [a thing]. (Ḥar p. 44.)

استجلبهُ He sought, or demanded, or desired, that it [a camel, sheep, goat, horse, captive, or slave, or a number of camels, &c., or any merchandise, (see 1, first sentence,)] should be driven [or brought] from one place to another [in which he was, or from one country or town to another, for sale]. (Ḳ.)

See also 1, first sentence.

جَلْبَبَهُ, (Ḳ,) or جلببهُ جِلْبَابًا, (TA,) inf. n. جَلْبَبَةٌ, the second ب not being incorporated into the first because the word is quasi-coordinate to the class of دَحْرَجَةٌ, (Ṣ,) He put on him a garment of the kind called جِلْبَاب. (Ṣ, Ḳ.) Accord. to Kh, the first ب in جلبب is [augmentative] like the و in جَهْوَرَ and دَهْوَرَ: accord. to Yoo, the second is [augmentative] like the ى in سَلْقَى and جَعْبَى. (IJ, TA.)

تَجَلْبَبَ, (Ḳ,) and تَجَلْبَبَتْ, (A, Mṣb,) He, and she, put on a garment of the kind called جِلْبَاب; or clad himself, and herself, therewith. (A, Mṣb, Ḳ.) And تجلبب بِثَوْبَهَ He covered himself with his garment. (Ḥar p. 162.)

[of the first] أَجْلَابٌ. (Ḳ.) Hence the prov., النُّفَاضُ يُقَطِّرُ الجَلَبَ The failure of provisions causes the camels, driven, or brought, from one place to another, to be disposed in files for sale. (TA.)
