, (M, A,) inf. n. تَأْرِيثٌ, (T, S, K,) He kindled, or lighted, a fire; or made it to burn, burn up, burn brightly or fiercely, blaze, or flame; (T, S, M, A, K;) as also ↓ أَرَثَ, aor. , (T, K,) inf. n. أَرْثٌ; (K; in a copy of the A إِرْثٌ;) but this [says SM] no leading lexicographer has mentioned, nor have I found any example of it. (TA.) [See also وَرَّثَ.] ― -b2- [Hence,] تأريث also signifies (tropical:) The exciting discord, dissension, disorder, strife, quarrelling, or animosity, between a people. (S, K.) You say, أرَث بَيْنَ القَوْمِ, (M, A,) and أرّث بَيْنَهُمُ الشَّرَّ وَالحَرْبَ, (T, TA,) (tropical:) He excited discord, dissension, disorder, strife, quarrelling, or animosity, between, or among, the people, or company of men; (T, M, A;) kindled the fire of discord, dissension, &c., [or evil, and war,] between them, or among them. (T, * TA.)

The fire became kindled, or lighted; or it burned, burned up, burned brightly or fiercely, blazed, or flamed. (S, M, K.)

, originally وِرْثٌ, (T, S,) Inheritance; or a person's obtaining possession of property left to him by one who has died. (MF.) ― -b2- An inheritance, or a heritage; what is inherited. (S, A, K.) ― -b3- An old condition, case, or state of things, which the last has inherited from the first. (S, A, K.) So in the phrase, هُوَ عَلَى إِرْثٍ مِنْ كَذَا [He is conforming, in respect of such a thing, with an old state of things, or an old usage, which he has inherited from his ancestors]. (S.) And in the following ex., from a trad., إِنَّكُمْ عَلَى إِرْثٍ مِنْ إِرْثِ أَبِيكُمْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ [Verily ye are conforming with an old state of things, or an old usage, which ye have inherited from your father Abraham], the meaning is, that his religion was their heritage. (T, * TA.) [See also وِرْثٌ.] ― -b4- A remainder, or what remains, (M, L, K,) of a thing, (K,) or of the original of a thing: (M, L:) pl. إِرَاثٌ. (L.) ― -b5- And [hence, app.,] Ashes. (M, K.) ― -b6- Also Origin, race, or stock. (S, M, A, K.) You say, هُوَ فِى إِرْثِ صِدْقٍ He is of an excellent origin, race, or stock. (S.) And إِنَّهُ لَفِى إِرْثِ مَجْدٍ [Verily he is of a glorious origin, race, or stock]; as also إِرْفِ مَجْدٍ, by a change of letters. (Yaa- koob, M.) Accord. to IAar, إِرْثٌ relates to حَسَب [or grounds of pretension to respect or honour, on account of one's ancestors' or one's own deeds or qualities, &c.]; and وِرْثٌ, to property, or wealth. (M.) [See art. ورث.]
