Root: طل

Full Definition

أَطْلَالُ is the name of a certain mare, or of a she-camel, which, in reply to her rider's commanding her to leap a river, on the day of El-Kádiseeyeh, is asserted to have spoken, saying, وَثْبٌ وَسُورَةِ البَقَرَةِ [A leap, by the Chapter of the Cow!]. [Freytag has erroneously said, as on the authority of the K, that it is a name of the chapter of the Kur-án otherwise called بقرة.]
