, said of a قُرْصَة, [so in the TA, an evident mistranscription, app. for قَرْحَة, and so in the next paragraph, i. e. an ulcer, or imposthume,] means صَارَ لَهَا أَصْلٌ [It had, or acquired, root, or rootedness, or permanence; as though it became a شَأْفَة]. (TA.)

[part. n. of شَيأِفَ, and properly meaning Having an ulcer, or imposthume, such as is termed شَأْفَة,] is applied as an epithet to a heart, in the following verse, cited by IKtt, " يَا أَيُّهَا الجَاهِلُ أَلَّا تَنْصَرِفْ وَلَمْ تُدَاوِ قُرْصَةَ القَلْبِ الشَّيأِفْ " [in which قُرْصَةَ is doubtless a mistranscription (like that in the next preceding paragraph) for قَرْحَةَ; the obvious meaning of the verse being, (assumed tropical:) O thou ignorant one, wherefore wilt not thou revert, when thou hast not cured the sore of an ulcerated heart?]. (TA.)

An ulcer, or imposthume, (قَرْحَةٌ,) that breaks out in the bottom of the foot, and is cauterized, (S, IAth, O, K,) or is cut, (Yaakoob, IAth, O,) and goes away; (Yaakoob, S, IAth, O, K;) and the word is also pronounced without ء [i. e. شَافَةٌ]: (IAth, TA:) or an ulcer, or imposthume, in the foot of a person, who dies if it is cut: (O, K:) and it is also said to be a tumour in the hand, and foot, from the entering of a piece of wood, or stick, into the flesh of the foot, or the palm of the hand, and its remaining therein, so that the place swells, and becomes large. (TA.) اِسْتَأْصَلَ ٱللّٰهُ شَأْفَتَهُ (S, O, K) is a prov. (S, O) meaning (assumed tropical:) May God cause him to go away like as the شأفة above mentioned goes away: (S, O, K:) or this means may God extirpate him: for ― -b2- شَأْفَةٌ is also syn. with أَصْلٌ [i. e. Root, &c.]: (O, K:) so says Sh. (O.) [See also 10 in art. اصل: and see what here follows.] ― -b3- It is also said to signify The family and household of a man: and hence the form of imprecation, اِسْتَأْصَلَ ٱللّٰهُ شَأْفَتَهُمْ [May God extirpate their family and household].

(KL.) -A2- And شَأَمَهُمْ, inf. n. شَأْمٌ, so in the L; in the K, ↓ شَأَّمَهُمْ, inf. n. تَشْيأِيمٌ; but the former is the right; (TA;) He made them to go, or journey, to الشَّأْم [i. e. Syria].

See also 6. ― -b2- And تشأّم He took the direction of his left hand: (K, TA:) and in like manner تَيَامَنَ, [whence it seems that تشأّم in the sense expl. above may be a mistake for ↓ تشآءم,] “ he took the direction of his right hand. ” (TA.) ― -b3- And He asserted his relationship to [the people of] الشَّأْم [i. e. Syria]: (S, K:) a verb similar to تكوّف and تقيّص. (S.)

, (S, Msb, K, TA, &c.,) in some of the copies of the K ↓ تشأّموا, (TA,) [and in like manner تشأّم بِهِ, which is often opposed to تَيَمَّنَ بِهِ, (see an instance in Bd xvii. 14,) is used in the K in art. عطس, and تشأّم مِنْهُ in the TA in the same art. as on the authority of IKh, whence it seems that both these verbs are correct in the sense here following, though the former is probably preferable, and بِهِ ↓ استشأم is used in the same manner in “ Les Oiseaux et les Fleurs, ” p. 83, as mentioned by Freytag, so that تشأّم به and استشأم are the contr. of تيمّن به and استيمن,] They augured evil from him, or it; regarded him, or it, as an evil omen; (Msb, KL; *) like تَطَيَّرُوا بِهِ: (Msb:) deemed him, or it, unlucky, or inauspicious.
