1. ⇒ ربض

رَبَضَ, (Ṣ, A, Mṣb, Ḳ,) aor. ـِ {يَرْبِضُ}, (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ,) inf. n. رُبُوضٌ (Ṣ, A, Mgh, Mṣb, Ḳ) and رَبْضٌ (Mṣb, Ḳ) and رَبْضَةٌ, (Ḳ,) [the last an inf. n. of un.,] said of the sheep and goat, (Ṣ, A, Mgh, Ḳ,) and of the gazelle, (Ṣ, A,) and of the ox-kind, and the horse, (Ṣ,) or beast, (Mṣb,) and of the dog, (Ṣ, A,) [signifying He lay down, or laid himself down, upon his breast,] is like بَرَكَ said of a camel, (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ,) and جَثَمَ said of a bird, (Ṣ, TA,) or جَلَسَ said of a man. (Mgh.) Said of a man, it means [† He lay down: and he sat: or] he sat upon his knees: and it may also mean he sat upon his thighs and his buttocks. (Ḥar p. 172.) [And hence, † He remained fixed, or stationary, like an animal lying upon its breast; as is shown by what here follows: whence a signification of رَبَّضَ, q. v.] The saying of Moḥammad to Eḍ-Ḍaḥḥák, when he sent him to his people, إِذَا أَتَيْتَهُمْ فَٱرْبِضْ فِى دَارِهِمْ ظَبْيًا, means When thou comest to them, remain in their abode in security, or without fear, like the gazelle in his covert: (IAạr, ISd, Ḳ:) or trust them not, but be vigilant, like a wild animal, ready to spring up, for thou wilt be in the midst of the unbelievers; (Az, ISd, Ḳ;*) so, if anything induce in thee suspicion, thou mayest flee from them like the gazelle: (Az, ISd, TA:) accord. to each interpretation, ظبيا is in the accus. case as a denotative of state; the subst. being put in the place of the act. part. n., as though for مَتَظَبِّيًا: the former of the two explanations is said to be the more agreeable with the circumstances of the case. (TA.) You say also, رَبَضَ الأَسَدُ عَلَى فَرِيسَتِهِ, and القِرْنُ عَلَى قِرْنِهِ, The lion laid himself down upon his breast (بَرَكَ) on his prey, and the adversary on his adversary. (Ḳ.)

And in another trad., respecting the signs of the coming of the resurrection, the Prophet is related to have said that one of those signs will be, that the رُوَيْبِضَة↓ will speak respecting the affairs of the community: (T, TA:) الرُّوَيْبِضَةُ is the dim. of الرَّابِضَةُ (T, Ḳ, TA) signifying The pastor of رَبِيض [q. v.]; (T, TA;) and means † the mean, contemptible man, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) who speaks respecting the affairs of the community: thus expl. by the Prophet himself: (Ḳ: [in the CK, النّاقِهُ is erroneously put for التَّافِهُ:]) or he explained it as meaning † the vitious, or wicked, who speaks respecting the affairs of the community: AʼObeyd compares this trad. with another, in which it is said that one of the signs above mentioned will be, that the pastors of sheep or goats will be the heads of the people: and Az says that الرويبضة means the pastor of sheep or goats: some say that it means † he who abstains, or holds back, from seeking the means of acquiring eminence, or nobility; and الرَّابِضَةُ signifies [the same, or] impotent to attain eminence: in this latter, the ة is added to give intensiveness to the signification: and Az thinks it most probable that each of these is applied to the mean man because of his remaining in his house, or tent, and seldom rising and going forth to occupy himself in great affairs.
