Form: 3

Full Definition

تاركهُIII [Verbal.Noun مُتَارَكَةٌ] is syn. with خَالَاهُ (S in art. خلو) [which is explained in the K, in art. خلو, as syn. with تَرَكَهُ, He left, forsook, relinquished, abandoned, &c., him or it; and thus it may often be well rendered: but it properly signifies he left him, forsook him, &c., being left, &c., by him; whence it is said in the Mgh, in art. ودع, that مُوَادَعَةُ is syn. with مُصَالَحَةٌ because it is مُتَارَكَةٌ: Golius, as on the authority of Ibn-Maaroof, explains تاركهُ as signifying he dismissed him, and did not molest him: he left him unmolested is one of its meanings, but is not the primary signification: accord. to the TK, متاركة signifies the leaving, &c., anything in the state in which it is: and the leaving, &c., one another]. One says also, تَارَكْتُهُ البَيْعَ, (S, Mgh, but in the latter تَارَكَهُ, and in the TA فِى البَيْعِ,) وَغَيْرَهُ, Verbal.Noun مُتَارَكَةٌ, [app. meaning I relinquished with him, i. e. concurrently with him, the sale, &c.: see 6, by which this rendering is confirmed: Golius, as on the authority of J, who has not explained it, says that it means I relinquished to him the merchandise, or commodity; and Freytag follows him.]
2 [Hence,] مُتَارَكَةٌ is metonymically used as meaning The making peace [or a truce], or reconciling oneself, with another or others.
3 In the saying, لَا بَارَكَ ٱللّٰهُ فِيِهِ وَلَا تَارَكَ وَلَا دَارَكَ, it is an imitative sequent, all of these verbs having the same meaning [so that the saying may be rendered May God not bless him nor felicitate him nor make him happy]: [or the meaning may be, nor preserve him, or prolong his life; for] IAar says that تَارَكَ means أَبْقَى.
