دُبَارٌ
, (S, M, K, [in the M, accord. to the TT, written دُبَارُ, and it occurs in poetry imperfectly decl., but there is no reason for its being so in prose,]) and
دِبَارٌ , Wednesday; the fourth day of the week; an ancient name thereof: or, accord. to the 'Eyn, the night of [i. e. preceding the day of] Wednesday: which latter explanation is preferred by some authorities. Wednesday is a day of ill luck: Mujáhid, being asked respecting the day of ill luck, answered, “ The Wednesday that does not come round [again, i. e. the last Wednesday,] in the month. ”
