sidorN * [a coll. gen. n., The species of lote-tree called by Linnæus rhamnus spina Christi; and by Forskål, rhamnus nabeca; ] the tree, or trees, of which the fruit is called nabiq and naboq : (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K:) sing., (Msb,) or [rather] n. un., (S, M, K,) sidorapN : (S, M, Msb, K:) and sometimes sidorN is used as meaning the smallest or smaller of numbers [generally denoting from three to ten inclusively]: (Ibn-Es-Sarráj, Msb:) AHn says, accord. to Aboo-Ziyád, the sidor is of the kind called EiDaAh , and is of two species, EuboriY~N and DaAlN : the EbrY is that which has no thorns except such as do not hurt: the DAl has thorns [ which hurt ]: the sdr has a broad round leaf: and sometimes people alight and rest beneath a tree of this kind; but the DAl is small: the best nbq that is known in the land of the Arabs is in Hejer ( hajar ), in a single piece of land which is appropriated to the Sultán alone: it is the sweetest of all in taste and odour: the mouth of him who eats it, and the garments of him who has it upon him, diffuse an odour like that of perfume: (M, TA:) it is [ also ] said that the sdr is of two species; whereof one grows in the cultivated lands, and its leaves are used in the ablution termed gusol , and its fruit is sweet; and the other grows in the desert, and its leaves are not so used, and its fruit is juicy: the zuEoruwr is so described that it may be supposed to be the wild nbq : (Msb:) when sidorN is used absolutely, with relation to the ablution termed gusol , it means the ground leaves of the tree so called: (Mgh, * Msb:) the pl. of sidorapN is sidoraAtN and sidiraAtN and sidaraAtN (S, K) and sidarN (S, M, K) and suduwrN , (M, K,) which last is extr. (M.) ― -b2- sidorapu AlmunotahaY is said to be The lote-tree in the Seventh Heaven; (Lth, K; *) beyond which neither angel nor prophet passes, and which shades the water and Paradise: (Lth:) in the Saheeh it is said to be in the Sixth Heaven: 'Iyád reconciles the two assertions by the supposition that its root is in the Sixth, and that it rises over the Seventh: accord. to IAth, it is in the furthest part of Paradise to which, as its furthest limit, extends the knowledge of ancients and moderns. (MF, TA.)

sadirN * Having his eyes dazzled by a thing, so that he turns away his face from it: or in a state of confusion or perplexity, and unable to see his right course: syn. mutaHay~irN : (K:) as also ↓ saAdirN : (S, K:) and the former, a camel having his eyes dazzled by a thing, so that he turns away his face from it, by reason of intense heat: (S:) and also one having his eyes dazzled by snow; as well as by intense heat. (IAar.) ― -b2- Eayonuhu sadirapN His eye is confused in its vision, or dazzled, so that he cannot see well. (A.) ― -b3- And sadirapN means An old and weak she-camel. (IAar, TA in art. sd .) ― -b4- Also sadirN The sea: (S, M, K:) one of the [proper] names thereof; (S;) occurring only in a poem of Umeiyeh Ibn-Abi-s-Salt: (M:) he says, fakaA^an~a biroqiEa waAlmalaAy^iku Hawolahu sadirN tawaAkaluhu AlqawaAy^imu A^ajoradu [ And as though the first heaven, with the angels around it, were the sea, the winds deserting it, and smooth ]: (S, M, TA: [but in the M and TA, for Hawolahu , we find HawolahaA ; and in the S, for A^ajoradu , we find A^ajorabu , which is inconsistent with the rhyme of the poem:]) by AlqwAy^m he means the winds; and by twAklh , [for tatawaAkaluhu ,] tarakatohu [or rather tatorukuhu ]: he likens the sky to the sea when calm: (TA:) Th quotes thus: wakaA^an~a biroqiEa waAlmalaAy^iku taHotahaA sadirN tawaAkaluhu qawaAy^imu A^arobaEu and says that the poet likens the angels, with respect to their fear of God, to a man affected with a vertigo [lit., turning round, though it would seem more appropriate had he said, the poet likens them to a camel so affected, whom his four legs failed: he prefaces this explanation with the words, sadirN yaduwru waqawaAy^imu A^arobaEu humu AlmalaAy^ikapu ; to which he or ISd adds, laA yadoriY kayofa xaloquhum : but (using a common phrase of ISd) I can only say, laA A^adoriY kayofa h`*aA ; unless there be some omission in the transcription]: (M, TA:) Sgh says that the correct reading is sidorN , meaning the kind of tree so called, not the sea; and the author of the Námoos adopts his opinion; but MF rejects it: (TA:) some read raqoEFA [in the place of brqE ] and explain it as meaning the seventh heaven.
