Lane's Arabic-English Lexicon

مُكْرِسٌ

Root: كرس

Full Definition

مُكْرِسٌ (in the L and TA مُكْرَسٌ, but the former, being agreeable with the verb, is probably the right reading,] Traces of men's abode in which is a compacted mixture of dung and urine of camels or of sheep or goats. (S, L, * TA. * [And accord. to the second and third of these authorities, كَرِسٌ seems to signify the same.])
