Q. Q. 4
It grew forth.
2 It bristled up.
3 He bristled up his hair. Marrár Ibn-Munkid El-Handhalee says, describing a horse, فَهْوَ وَرْدُ اللَّوْنِ فِى ٱزْبِئْرَارِهِ وَكُمَيْتُ اللَّوْنِ مَا لَمْ يَزْبَئِرْ [And he is of a yellowish red colour on the occasion of his bristling up his hair, and of a dark bay colour as long as he does not bristle up his hair].
4 Also He had abundance of hair.
5 And He prepared for evil, or mischief: or became affected by a quaking, or trembling, and a bristling-up of the hair.
