kalobN * a word of well-known signification, [The dog: ] (S:) or any wounding animal of prey: (L, K, &c.:) but whether birds [of prey] are comprised in this term is a point that requires consideration: (Esh-Shiháb El-Khafájee:) and especially applied to the barking animal [or dog ]: (K:) or rather, this is its proper signification; and it admits no other: (MF:) sometimes used as an epithet; as in the ex. A_imoraA^apN kalobapN [ A woman like a bitch; a woman who is a bitch ]: (S:) pl. [of pauc.] A^akolubN and (of mult., TA,) kilaAbN (S, K) and kaliybN , which is a rare [form of] pl., like EabiydN , pl. of EabodN , [or rather a quasi-pl. n.,] (S,) and (pl. of A^akolubN , S,) A^akaAlibu (S, K) and (pl. of kilaAbN , TA,) kilaAbaAtN (K) and (also pl. of kilaAbN ) A^akaAliybu : (Msb:) kilaAbN is also used as a pl. of pauc.; valaAvapu kilaAbK being said for vlAvpN mina AlkilaAbi ; or klAb being used in this case for A^akolubK : (Sb:) kaliybN and ↓ kaAlibN signify a pack, or collected number, of dogs: (K:) [both are quasi-pl. ns. in my opinion, though the former is called a pl. in the S:] accord. to some, the former, if masc., is a quasipl. n. ; and if fem., a pl.: (MF:) the latter is like jaAmilN and baAqirN [which are both quasi-pl. ns.]. (L.) The pl. of kalobapN [the fem.] is kilaAbN and kalabaAtN . (Msb.) ― -b2- fulaAnN biwaAdiY Alkalobi (tropical:) [ Such a one is in the valley of the dog: ] said of one whom no one cares for, and who has no place of abode or resort, but is like a dog, which one sees ever going forth into the desert. ― -b3- kaf~a Eanohu kilaAbahu (tropical:) He left reviling him, and injuring or annoying him: [lit., restrained from him his dogs].

See also kalabN . ― -b4- AlkilaAbu ElY Albaqar i , (S, K,) the first word being in the nom. case as an inchoative, (TA,) and AlkilaAba , (S, K,) put in the acc. case as governed by a verb understood, (TA,) or AlkiraAbu and AlkiraAba ; (Kh, S, art. krb , K;) of which readings, that of AlklAb is the one generally adopted; (TA;) or they are two distinct proverbs, each having its proper meaning; (Meyd;) the former signifying, [if we read AlkilaAba ,] Send the dogs against the wild oxen: i. e., leave a man and his art: (S, K:) [but accord. to MF, this is the meaning if we read krAb ; but if we read klAb , the signification is, as explained above, “ Send the dogs &c., ” and the proverb is applied on the occasion of instigating one set of people against another set, without caring for what may happen to them:] or it alludes to a man's having little care or solicitude for the state, or case, or affair, of his companion. (A 'Obeyd.) If we read AlklAbu , the meaning is The dogs are upon, or against, the wild oxen: and in like manner, if we read AlkrAbu , the meaning is “ The turning over of the soil is the work of the oxen: ” if AlkrAba , “ Leave the turning over of the soil to the oxen. ” (MF, from expositions of the Fs.) ― -b5- [ kalobN kalibN seems also to signify A fierce, or furious, dog.

kalabN * (S, K) and ↓ kulaAbN (Lth) Madness which affects a dog in consequence of eating human flesh. (K.) ― -b2- Also, Madness like that of dogs, which affects a man in consequence of his having been bitten by a [ mad ] dog: (K:) [ a disorder ] resembling madness, or diobolical possession: (S:) a disease that befalls a man from the bite of a mad dog, occasioning what resembles madness, or diabolical possession, so that whomsoever he bites, that person also becomes in like manner affected, abstaining from drinking water until he dies of thirst: the Arabs concur in the assertion that its cure is a drop of the blood of a king, mixed with water, and given to the patient to drink. (TA.) Accord. to El-Mufaddal, it originates from a disease which befalls the standing corn &c., and which is not removed until the sun rises upon it: if cattle eat of it before that, they die: wherefore Mohammad forbade pasturing by night: but sometimes a camel runs away, and eats of such pasture before sunrise, and dies in consequence: then a dog comes, and eats of its flesh, and becomes mad; and if it bite a man, he also becomes mad, and when he hears the barking of a dog, answers it [by barking]. (TA.) ― -b3- dimaA'u Almuluwki A^a$ofaY mina Alkalabi [ The blood of kings has cured of canine madness ]: or, accord. to another reading, dimaA'u Almuluwki $ifaA'u Alkalabi [ The blood of kings is the cure for canine madness ]. A proverb, explained by what is quoted from Lh, voce kalibN . But some reject this explanation, and assert the meaning to be, that, when a man is enraged [by desire of obtaining revenge], and takes his blood revenge, the blood is the cure of his rage, though not really drunk.
