صَكَّهُ, (Ṣ, O, Mṣb, Ḳ,) aor. ـُ {يَصْكُكُ}, (TA,) inf. n. صَكٌّ, (Mgh,* Mṣb, TA,) He struck him, or it: (Ṣ, Mgh, O:) or he struck him, or it, vehemently, with a broad thing; or in a general sense, (Ḳ, TA,) with anything whatever: (TA:) or he slapped him with his hand, i. e. struck him with his expanded hand, (Mṣb,) like لَطَمَهُ, (TA in art. لطث, &c.,) upon the back of his neck, and upon his face. (Mṣb.) Hence, in the Ḳur [li. 29], فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا (Ṣ, TA) And she slapped her face with her hand; syn. لَطَمَتْهُ. (Jel.) And صَكَّ البَازِى صَيْدَهُ The hawk, or falcon, struck his prey with his foot, and so cast it down. (Ḥam p. 799.) And [hence, app.,] one says, خُذْ هٰذَا أَوَّلَ صَكٍّ, meaning أَوَّلَ مَا أَصُكُّ بِهِ [Take thou this on my first striking with it]: and so أَوَّلَ صَوْكٍ (O, TA.)
