Lane's Arabic-English Lexicon

جَاْلَبَ

Root: جلب

Form: 3

Full Definition

جَاْلَبَIII [جالب is explained by Golius, as on the authority of the KL, as meaning He helped, or assisted: but this is a mistake for حالب; for I find مُحَالَبَةٌ explained by يارى كردن in a copy of the KL, and the order of the words there shows that it is not a mistranscriptiou for مجالبة.]
