How poor, or needy, &c., is he!] and مَا أَغْنَاهُ [which has the contr. meaning] are [said to be] anomalous; for their [respective primitive] verbs are اِفْتَقَرَ and اِسْتَغْنَى, from either of which the verb of wonder is not properly [or regularly] formed. (S, O. [But see 8.])

, occurring in a trad., as some relate it, means [There appeared before us men] eliciting what was recondite, or obscure, of knowledge, and opening what was closed thereof; from فَقَرْتُ البِيأْرَ meaning “ I dug the well to draw forth the water: ” but the reading commonly known is [يَتَقَفَّرُونَ, q. v.,] with the ق before the ف.

He clave, slit, or rent; and opened: [see also 1, fourth sentence:] hence its usage in a trad. of 'Omar, in which, after his saying that Imra-el-Keys was the foremost of the poets, and had made the source of poetry to well forth abundantly to them, [see خَسَفَ,] he is related to have added, وَٱفْتَقَرَ عَنْ مَعانٍ عُورٍأَصَحَّ بَصَرٍ: in saying this, he attributed a sound and an opened sight to the poetry, [which he thus personified,] and in like manner he described obscure and occult meanings by applying to them the epithet عُور [generally meaning “ blind of one eye ”]: he meant that Imra-el-Keys had made the meanings of poetry clear and perspicuous, and unveiled them, and shunned substitution and obscure diction: عَنْ with what is [to be understood as] antecedently connected with it occupies the place of a noun in the accus. case as a denotative of state: it is as though he said, فَتَحَ لِلشِّعْرِأَصَحَّ بَصَرٍ مُجَاوِزًا لِلْمَعَانِى العُورِمُتَخَطِيًا لَهَا [lit. He opened, to poetry, a most sound vision, passing over half-blind meanings]. (O.) -A2- Also, (O,) He was, or became, فَقِير [meaning poor, or needy, &c.]; (S, O, Msb, K, &c.;) and so ↓ فَقِرَ, aor. , inf. n. فَقَرٌ; (Msb;) and ↓ فَقُرَ, aor. ; (K;) or they said افتقر, (Sb, Msb, TA,) like as they said اِشْتَدَّ, (Sb, TA,) but they did not say فَقُرَ, (Sb, Msb, TA,) like as they did not say شَدُدَ, (Sb, TA,) افتقر serving them instead of فَقُرَ; (Msb;) nor did they use any unaugmented form of this verb. (Sb, TA.) ― -b2- And one says, افتقر إِلَيْهِ He, or it, wanted, needed, or required, him, or it; [a phrase of frequent occurrence; like فَقِيرٌ إِلَيْهِ;] i. q. اِحْتَاجَ اليه. (TA in art. حوج.)

[He borrowed, or asked for the loan of, the back of a camel, for carrying a burden or for riding]. (See أَرْمَلُ.)

and ↓ فُقْرٌ signify the same, (S, O, Msb, K,) but the latter is bad, (Lth, TA,) and sometimes they said ↓ فُقُرٌ, (MF, TA,) Poverty, want, or need; contr. of غِنًى: (K:) or the state of a man when he has [only] what suffices for his household, or those who dwell with him and whose maintenance is incumbent on him: (ISd, K:) [other meanings are indicated by explanations of the epithet فَقِيرٌ, q. v.:] ↓ مَفاَقِرُ [signifying needs, or wants,] is said by some to be a pl. of فَقرٌ, anomalous, like مَشَابِهُ [pl. of شَبَهٌ] and مَلَامِحُ [pl. of لَمْحَةٌ]: or it may be a pl. of ↓ مُفْقَرٌ, an inf. n. of أَفْقَرَهُ; or pl. of ↓ مُفْقِرٌ; or it has no sing.: (TA:) you say, ↓ سَدَّ ٱللّٰهُ مَفَاقِرَهُ God rendered him, or may God render him, free from want; (S, Msb, K;) [lit.] God supplied, or may God supply, his various needs, or wants. (S, K.) ― -b2- And فَقْرٌ signifies also Anxiety; or disquietude, or trouble, of mind: pl. فُقُورٌ: (O, K, TA:) one says, شَكَى إِلَيْهِ فُقُورَهُ He complained to him of his anxieties; &c.: and it means also, his circumstances, and wants: (TA:) [for,] accord. to IAar, the phrase فُقُورُ النَّفْسِ is like شُقُورُهَا. (O.) -A2- See also فَقْرَةٌ.

: see the next preceding paragraph. -A2- Also The side: pl. فُقَرٌ, (K, TA,) which is extr. [in respect of analogy]: mentioned by Kr. (TA.) [See أَفْقَرَكَ الصَّيْدُ.]
