زَبَد

zabodN * [originally an inf. n.,] (tropical:) A gift. (S, A, Mgh, Msb.) So in the saying (S, TA) of Mo- hammad, (TA,) mentioned in a trad., A_in~aA laA naqobalu zaboda Almu$orikiyna (tropical:) [ Verily we will not accept the gift of the believers in a plurality of Gods ]. (S, TA.) And so in the saying, nahaY Eano zabodi Almu$orikiyna (tropical:) (A, Mgh, Msb) i. e. [ He (Mohammad) forbade ] the acceptance of the gift [ of the believers in a plurality of Gods ]. (Msb.)

zubodN * [ Fresh butter of the cow or buffalo or sheep or goat; ] what is produced by churning from milk (Mgh, Msb) of cows [or buffaloes ] and of sheep or goats; what is thus produced from camels' milk being termed jubaAbN , not zubodN ; (Msb;) the zubod of samon before it is clarified over the fire; (L;) [i. e. butter before it is clarified over the fire; ] the zubod [in the CK, erroneously, zabad ] of milk; (S, K;) what is extracted from milk; (M;) and ↓ zub~aAdN signifies the same as zubodN : (K:) ↓ zubodapN is a more particular term, (S, M, L, Msb,) meaning a piece, bit, portion, or somewhat, of zubod : (L:) and zubodu All~abani signifies also the froth ( ragowap ) of milk [if this be not a mistake occasioned by finding Alz~ubodu expl. as meaning zabadu All~abani instead of zubodu All~abani ]. (L.) qado Sar~aHa AlmaHoDu Eani Alz~ubodi [ The clear milk has become distinct from the fresh butter ] is a prov., relating to the appearance of the truth after information that has been doubted. (L.) And ↓ Airotajanati Alz~ubodapu is another prov. [expl. in art. rjn ]. (L.) ― -b2- ↓ zubodapN has for its pl. zubadN , which is metonymically applied to (tropical:) The choice, or best, portions, [or what we often term the cream (by which word the sing. also may be rendered) of anything; as, for instance,] of discourse, or of a story or the like. (Har p. 222, q. v.) ― -b3- [And it also means (assumed tropical:) An issue, or event: (see an ex. voce maxaDa :) generally, such as is relishable, or pleasing. Hence, app.,] one says, AlEumuri ↓ kaAna liqaAw^uka zubodapa (tropical:) [ The meeting with thee was emphatically the event of life; meaning, the most relishable, or pleasing, event of life ]. (A, TA.)

zabadN * Froth, foam, spume, or scum: (L:) it is of water, (S, L, K,) &c.; (K;) of the sea, (A, Msb,) &c., like ragowapN [ in signification ]; (Msb;) and of a cooking-pot; (A;) and of a camel, (S,) [i. e.] of a braying camel's mouth, (A,) or the white foam upon the lips of a camel when he is excited by lust; (TA;) and of the cud; and of spittle; (L;) and [the scum, or dross, ] of silver: (S:) ↓ zabadapN is a more particular term [meaning a portion, or somewhat, thereof ]: (S:) the pl. of zabadN is A^azobaAdN .
