[Thus in one of my copies of the S: in the other copy the explanation is written لَا تَعُبُّ فى الماء, as though عَبَابِ were an imperative verbal noun: and so in the O, in which the phrase is written لَا عَبَابَ: but بَعُبَّ I think a mistranscription.]) The saying إِذَا أَصَابَتِ الظِّبَآءُ المَآءَ فَلَا عَبَابِ وَإِنْ لَمْ تُصِبْهُ فَلَا أَبَابِ means When the gazelles find water, they do not drink in the manner termed عَبٌّ; and when they do not find it, they do not prepare to seek it and to drink it: (K, TA; and thus (عَبَابِ and أَبَابِ) accord. to the Mz, 40th نوع: but in the CK عَبابَ and اَبابَ:) it is a prov., frequently used by the Arabs in an abridged manner, لا عباب ولا اباب, as in the works of Meyd and others; (TA;) and is applied to a man who turns from a thing, not needing it.

(TA.) ― -b2- [Hence,] عَبَّ عُبَابُهُ: see 1, near the end. ― -b3- It is said in a trad., إِنَّا حَىٌّ مِنْ مَذْحِجٍ عُبَابُ شَرَفِهَا وَلُبَابُ سَلَفِهَا, meaning (assumed tropical:) [Verily we are a tribe sprung from Medh-hij, the chief of their nobility, or nobles, and the purest, or best, issue] of their ancestry, or [the purest, or best, inheritors] of their ancestral might and glory. (TA: only سَلَفِهَا in this saying being there explained.) And in a trad. of 'Alee, relating to Aboo-Bekr, طِرْتَ بِعُبَابِهَا وفُزْتَ بِحَبَابِهَا, expl. voce حَبَابٌ. (TA.) And one says, جَاوأُوا بِعُبَابِهِمْ (assumed tropical:) They came [with their whole company, or] all together. (TA.) -A2- Also A خُوصَة [or leaf of a palm-tree &c.]. (K.)

It is stated in a marginal note in the L, that A'Obeyd [is related to have] said that عَبِيبَة is “ milk such as is termed رَايأِب: ” but AM observes that this is a disgraceful mistake, and that A'Obeyd is related on the authority of Sh to have assigned this meaning to غَبِيبَةٌ. (TA.) ― -b2- Also The [shrub called] رِمْث, (K, TA,) on which camels feed, (TA,) when it is in a depressed tract of land. (K, TA.)
