Full Definition

طلّقII He left, left alone, or let go, his she-camel. See also 4, second sentence.
2 [Hence,] طلّق ٱمْرَأَتَهُ, Verbal.Noun تَطْلِيقٌ, from طَلَاقٌ [q. v.]; and , Verbal.Noun إِطْلَاقٌ; [He divorced his wife;] he separated his wife from himself [by a sentence of divorce]. [طلّق in this sense is opposed to رَاجَعَ: and hence the meanings of these two verbs in a verse of En-Nábighah which I have cited in art. نذر, and which is also cited in the S and O and TA in the present art.]
3 And طلّق البِلَادَ He left, or quitted, the country. El-'Okeylee, being asked by Ks, أَطَلَّقْتَ ٱمْرَأَتَكَ [Hast thou quitted thy wife?], answered, نَعَمْ وَالأَرْضَ مِنْ وَرَائِهَا [Yes, and the land behind her]. And one says, طَلَّقْتُ القَوْمَ I left, or quitted, the people, or party: and طلّق العِيَالَ He left [or deserted] the household, like as the man leaves [or divorces] the woman, or wife. And طلّق العَيْرُ عَانَتَهُ The he-ass passed by, or beyond, his she-ass, and then left her: and طَلَّقَتْهُ العَانَةُ The she-ass submitted herself [the verb which I thus render has been altered to انقدت, for which I read ٱنْقَادَتْ,] to him, after having been incompliant.
4 And طُلِّقَ السَّلِيمُ The person bitten by a serpent became rid of the pain: or recovered himself, and his pain became allayed, after the paroxysm: Verbal.Noun as above.
5 طَلَّقَ نَخْلَهُ: see 4, last sentence.
