Full Definition

مُجَبَّبٌ A horse in which the [whiteness termed] تَحْجِيل reaches to the knee and the hock; [i. e.] in which the whiteness [of the lower part of the leg] reaches to the knee and the hock or the knees and the hocks: or in which the تحجيل reaches to his knees: or in which the whiteness rises to [the extent of] what is termed الجَبَبُ; or more than this, [perhaps a mistake of a copyist for less than this,] so as not to reach to the knees: or in which the whiteness reaches to the hairs that surround his hoof.
2 بِئْرٌ مُجَبَّبَةٌ الجَوْفِ A well having in the middle a part wider than the rest, hollowed out like a cupola.
