Lane's Arabic-English Lexicon

طِيَابٌ

Root: طيب

Full Definition

طِيَابٌ A sort of palm-trees of El-Basrah, the dates of which, when the gathering has been delayed beyond the usual time, fall, one after another, from their stones, so that the raceme remains with nothing upon it but the stones hanging to the bases of the dates; though they are large; and if the fruit is gathered when fully ripe, the stone does not come off with it.
