, [third pers. زَلَّ,] aor. تَزِلُّ; (S, K;) and زَلِلْتَ, [third pers. likewise زَلَّ,] aor. تَزَلُّ; (Fr, S, K;) inf. n. زَلِيلٌ, (Lh, S, K,) which is of the former verb, (S,) and زَلٌّ, (Lh, K,) also of the former verb, (Msb,) and زُلُولٌ and زِلِّيلَى [or, accord. to the S, this is a simple subst.,] and زِلِّيلَآءُ (Lh, K) and مَزِلَّةٌ, (K,) [all app. of the former verb,] and زَلَلٌ, (Fr, S, K,) which is of the latter verb; (Fr, S;) Thou slippedst (K) in mud, or in speech, (S, K,) or in judgment, or opinion, or in religion: (TA:) or you say, زَلَّ عَنْ مَكَانِهِ, aor. يَزِلُّ, inf. n. زَلٌّ [&c. as above]; and زَلَّ, aor. يَزَلُّ, inf. n. زَلَلٌ; the former verb of the class of ضَرَبَ; and the latter, of the class of تَعِبَ; meaning he, or it, moved away, or aside, [or slipped,] from his, or its, place: and زَلَّ فِى مَنْطِقِهِ, or فِعْلِهِ, aor. يَزِلُّ, like يَضْرِبُ, inf. n. زَلَّةٌ, he made a slip, or mistake, in his speech, or his action. (Msb.) فَإِنْ زَلَلْتُمْ, in the Kur ii. 205, means But if ye turn away, or aside, from entering thereinto fully: (Jel:) this is the common reading: but some read زَلِلْتُمْ. (TA.) And you say, زَلَّ زَلَّةً He committed a slip in speech and the like. (TA.) Accord. to IAth, زَلِيلٌ signifies The passing of a body from one place to another: and ― -b2- hence it is metaphorically used in like manner in relation to a benefit: one says, زَلَّتْ مِنْهُ إِلَى فُلَانٍ نِعْمَةٌ, inf. n. زَلِيلٌ, meaning (tropical:) A benefit passed, or was transferred, from him, (i. e. a benefactor,) to such a one. (TA.) ― -b3- زَلَّ, inf. n. زَلِيلٌ and زُلُولٌ, also signifies He (a man) passed along quickly: (ISh, K:) and زَلَّ, inf. n. زَلِيلٌ, he ran: and زَلِيلٌ, a light, or an agile, walking or pacing: (TA:) [and زَلَلٌ, mentioned above as an inf. n., seems to have the same, or a similar, signification:] a rájiz says, (S,) namely, Aboo-Mohammad El- Hadhlemee, (TA,) or Aboo-Mohammad ElFak'asee, (O,) " إِنَّ لَهَا فِى العَامِ ذِى الفُتُوقِ وَزَلَلِ النِّيَّةِ وَالتَّصْفِيقِ رِعْيَةَ مَوْلًى نَاصِحٍ شَفِيقِ " (S in the present art., * and in art. صفق, * and art. فتق, but in this last with رَبٍّ in the place of مَوْلًى, and TA,) [i. e. Verily they have, in the year of little rain, (thus الفتوق, as here used, is expl. in the S in art. فتق,) and in the passing along lightly to the place which is the object of the journey, and in the being removed from a tract which they have depastured to a place in which is pasture, (thus التصفيق, as here used, is expl. in the S in art. صفق,) the tending of a master honest in his conduct, or desirous of their good, benevolent, or compassionate]: he is speaking of his camels: (S in art. فتق:) he means that they pass along lightly [so I render تَزِلُّ] from place to place in search of herbage: and النيّة means the place to which they purpose journeying. (S.) ― -b4- [Hence,] زَلَّ عُمُرُهُ (assumed tropical:) His life went, or passed, [or glided,] away. (K, TA.) ― -b5- زَلَّتِ الدَّرَاهِمُ, (S, Msb, * K,) aor. , (S, Msb,) inf. n. زُلُولٌ, (S, K,) or زَلِيلٌ, (Msb,) The dirhems, or pieces of money, poured out, or forth: (K:) or were, or became, deficient in weight.

(S.) -A2- زَلَّ, aor. يَزِلُّ, accord. to analogy, as an intrans. v., from أَزْلَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ meaning “ I gave to him ” of food &c., should signify He took, or received: and hence the saying of the lawyers, وَيَزِلُّ إِنْ عَلِمَ الرِّضَى And he shall take, or receive, or the food [if he have knowledge of permission, or consent]. (Msb.) -A3- زُلَّ i. q. دُقِّقَ [app. as meaning He, or it, was made, or rendered, thin, or slender]. (IAar, TA.)

, (K,) inf. n. إِزْلَالٌ, (TA,) He, or it, made him, or caused him, to slip in mud, (K, TA,) or in speech, or in judgment, or opinion, or in religion; (TA;) and ↓ استزلّهُ signifies the same. (S, * MA, K, * PS. [But respecting this latter, see what follows.]) It is said in the Kur [ii. 34], فَأَزَلَّهُمَا الشَّيْطَانُ عَنْهَا [And the Devil made them, or caused them, both, to slip, or fall, from it, namely, Paradise (الجَنَّة)]; and one reading is أَزَالَمُهَا, i. e. removed them: or, as some say, it means caused them to commit a slip, or wrong action, in consequence of it [referring to the tree]: or, accord. to Th, caused them to slip in judgment. (TA.) And in the same, iii. 149, ↓ ٱسْتَزَلَّهُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ The Devil made them, or caused them, to slip: (Jel:) or, as some say, sought to make them commit a slip, or wrong action. (TA.) ― -b2- One says also, أَزَلَّ فُلَانًا إِلَى القَوْمِ He sent forward such a one to the people, or party. (TA.) ― -b3- And أَزَلَّهُ عَنْ رَأْيِهِ He made him to turn from his opinion. (MA.) ― -b4- And as زَلِيلٌ signifies the “ passing ” of a body from one place to another, one says, speaking metaphorically, (IAth, TA,) أَزَلَّ إِلَيْهِ نِعْمَةً (tropical:) He did to him a benefit: (S, IAth, K:) whence, (TA,) it is said in a trad., مَنْ أُزِلَّتْ إِلَيْهِ نِعْمَةٌ فَلْيَشْكُرْهَا (assumed tropical:) He to whom a benefit is done [let him be grateful for it]. (A'Obeyd, S, * Mgh, Msb.) And أَزْلَلْتُ لَهُ زُلَّةً (assumed tropical:) I did to him a benefit: one should not say زللت [thus written, app. for ↓ زَلَّلْتُ: but see مُزَلِّلٌ]. (TA.) And أَزْلَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ [alone] (assumed tropical:) I gave to him: or I did to him a benefit. (Msb.) And أَزْلَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَغَيْرِهِ (assumed tropical:) I gave to him of the food and other things. (IKtt, TA.) And أَزَلَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ حَقِّهِ شَيْيأًا (assumed tropical:) He gave to him somewhat of his due. (S, K.) And أَزَلَّ عَنْهُ نِعْمَةً (assumed tropical:) He drew forth from him a benefit. (TA.)

, (S, * Msb, K, &c.,) inf. n. زَلْزَلَةٌ and زِلْزَالٌ and زَلْزَالٌ and زُلْزَالٌ, (K,) or the first of these is an inf. n. [by universal consent], (S,) and so is the second, but the third is a simple subst., (Zj, S, Msb,) though this and the fourth [which is the least known] have the authority of certain readings of passages of the Kur, namely, xcix. 1 for both of these, and xxxiii. 11 for the latter of them, (TA,) He put it, or him, into a state of motion, commotion, or agitation: (Msb, K, TA:) or into a state of convulsion, or violent motion. (Zj, TA.) You say, زَلْزَلَ ٱللّٰهُ الأَرْضَ [i. e. God made the earth to quake: or to quake violently:] (S:) [or] put the earth into a state of convulsion, or violent motion. (Zj, TA) And جَآءَ بِالإِبِلِ يُزَلْزِلُهَا He came with, or brought, the camels, driving them with roughness, violence, or vehemence. (TA.) Some say that زَلْزَلَةٌ is from الزَّلَلُ فِى الرَّأْىِ [i. e. “ the making a slip in judgment, or opinion ”]: so when one says, زُلْزِلَ القَوْمُ the meaning is, The people, or party, were turned away from the right course, and fear was cast into their hearts. (TA.) It is said in a trad., اَللّٰهُمَّ ٱهْزِمِ الأَحْزَابَ وَزَلْزِلْهُمْ i. e. [O God, rout, defeat, or put to flight, the combined forces, and] make their state of affairs to be unsound, or unsettled. (TA.) Accord. to IAmb, أَصَابَتِ القَوْمَ زَلْزَلَةٌ means An affrighting befell the people, or party; from the saying in the Kur [ii. 210], وَزُلْزِلُوا حَتَّى يَقُولَ الرَّسُولُ i. e. And they were affrighted [so that the Apostle said]: (L, TA:) or were vehemently agitated. (Ksh, Bd.) ― -b2- مَا زَلْزَلْتُ قَطُّ مَآءً أَبْرَدَ مِنْ مَآءِ الثغوبِ [or الثَّغَبِ, as it is written in the explanation of this saying, the latter being app. the right reading], said by Aboo-Shembel, means I have not put into my throat, or fauces, ever, water slipping into it cooler than the water of the ثَغَب [or pool left by a torrent in the shade of a mountain]. (Az, TA.)

It was, or became, in a state of motion, commotion, agitation, convulsion, or violent motion. (Msb, TA.) You say, تَزَلْزَلَتِ الأَرْضُ (S, Msb, TA) The earth [quaked: or quaked violently:] was, or became, in a state of motion, commotion, &c.: (Msb:) the verb in this phrase [and in others] is quasi-pass. of R. Q. 1. (S, TA.) And تَزَلْزَلَتْ نَفْسُهُ His soul reciprocated in his chest at death. (TA.)

Slippery: (S:) a place in which one slips; (K;) and ↓ زَلَلٌ signifies the same; (S, K;) and ↓ زَلُولٌ [likewise, i. e.] a place in which the foot slips. (TA.) You say مَقَامٌ زُلٌّ and ↓ زَلَلٌ, and مَقَامَةٌ زُلٌّ and ↓ زَلَلٌ, [A standing-place] in which one slips. (K.) And زُحْلُوقَةٌ زُلٌّ and ↓ زَلَلٌ A slippery [sloping slide or rolling-place &c.]. (S.) [See also مَزِلَّةٌ.]

A slip (S, Msb, * K) in mud, or in speech; a subst. from 1 meaning as expl. in the first sentence of this art.; (S, K:) as also ↓ زِلِّيلَى: (S: [but this latter is mentioned by Lh and in the K as an inf. n.:]) a slip, or lapse; (K:) a fault, a wrong action, a mistake, or an error; (Msb, K;) or a sin, or crime; (K, * TA;) a fall into sin or crime. (Msb in art. عثر.) One says, زَلَّ الرَّجُلُ زَلَّةً قَبِيحَةً The man [made a foul slip; or] fell into the commission of a disapproved, or hateful, or foul, act; or committed an exorbitant, an abominable, or a foul, mistake: whence the trad., نَعُوذُ بِٱللّٰهِ مِنْ زَلَّةِ العَالِمِ [We seek protection by God from the slip of the learned man]: and the well-known saying, زَلَّةٌ العَالِمِ زَلَّةُ العَالَمِ [The slip of the learned man is the slip of the world at large]. (TA.) ― -b2- A benefit, or good action; (Mgh, * K;) as also ↓ زُلَّةٌ: (K:) a gift. (Msb.) ― -b3- A feast, or repast, that is prepared for guests. (Lth, O, Msb.) One says, اِتَّخَذَ فُلَانٌ زَلَّةً [Such a one made, or prepared, a feast for guests]. (Lth, O, Msb.) Hence, (Lth, TA,) it is also a name for Food that is carried from the table of one's friend or relation: a word of the dial. of El-'Irák: (Lth, Msb, K:) or in this sense it is a vulgar word, (K, TA,) used by the common people of El-'Irák (TA.) And i. q. عُرْسٌ [as meaning A marriage-feast]. (ISh, Az, Msb, K.) So in the saying, كُنَّا فِى زَلَّةِ فُلَانٍ [We were at the marriage-feast of such a one]. (ISh, Az, Msb, TA.)

: see زَلَّةٌ. -A2- Also A straitened state of the breath [unless النَّفَسِ be a mistranscription for النَّفْس the soul, which I think not improbable]. (K.)

Stones: or smooth stones: (K:) pl. زِلَلٌ. (TA.)

an inf. n. of 1, [q. v,] (Fr, S, Msb, K,) in two [or three] senses. (K.) -A2- See also زُلٌّ, in four places. -A3- Also A deficiency: so in the saying, فِى مِيزَانِهِ زَلَلٌ [In its weight is a deficiency]. (Lh, K.)

A certain animal, of small, white body; which, when it dies, is put into water, and renders it cool, or cold: (TA:) [Golius describes it as a worm that is bred in snow; of which Aristotle speaks in his Hist. Animalium, l. ↓. 19; and he adds, on the authority of Dmr, that it is of the length of a finger, generally marked with yellow spots; and swelling in water such as is termed ماء الزلال.] ― -b2- Hence, [it is said to be] applied to water, as meaning Cool, or cold: (TA:) or, so applied, sweet: (S:) or sweet, clear, or limpid, pure, easy in its descent, that slips into the throat; as also ↓ زُلَازِلٌ: (TA:) or quick in its descent and passage in the throat, (K, * TA,) cool, or cold, sweet, clear, or limpid, easy in its descent; as also ↓ زَلِيلٌ and ↓ زَلُولٌ and ↓ زُلَازِلٌ. (K.) ― -b3- And Clear, as applied to anything. (TA.)
