Root: رسل

Full Definition

الرَّاسِلَانِ The two shoulder-blades: or two veins therein: he who says that they are two veins in the two hands, pointing to what is found in the copies of the Mj of IF, [in which فِى الكَفَّيْنِ is put in the place of فى الكَتِفِيْنِ,] is in error: or the وَابِلَتَانِ [q. v., a word variously explained]: in the copies of the K, الرَّابِلَتَانِ is erroneously put for الوَابِلَتَانِ.
