Full Definition

يسّرهُII , (Verbal.Noun تَيْسِيرٌ, M, &c.) He made it, or rendered it, easy; facilitated it. You say, يُسِّرَتْ عَلَيْهَا الوِلَادَةُ The act of bringing forth was rendered easy to her.
2 He made his circumstances ample; he made his condition, or his way or course [لِكَذَا to such a thing], easy, or smooth: he accommodated, adapted, or disposed, him, لِلْيُسْرَى [to easy things, or affairs, or circumstances; or to the easier, or easiest, way]: he prepared, or made ready, him or it, لِكَذَا for such a thing. تَيْسِيرٌ relates to both good and evil: as in the following instances in the Kur; [xcii. 7, 10;] فَسَنُيَسِّرُهُ لِلْيُسْرَى, and لِلْعُسْرَى, [We will facilitate, or smooth, his way, or] We will accommodate him, or adapt him, or dispose him, [to a state of ease, and to a state of difficulty, or (as explained in the TA, art. عسر,) to punishment, and a difficult case:] or We will prepare him for paradise, and for hell: or We will prepare him to return to good, or righteous, conduct, [and to persevere in evil, or unrighteous, conduct; the former leading to ease, and the latter to difficulty:] or We will prepare him for that habit of conduct which leads to ease, such as the entering paradise, and for that which leads to difficulty, such as the entering hell: from يسّر الفَرَسَ, meaning, he prepared the horse for riding, by saddling and bridling. It is said in a trad. وَقَدْ يُسِّرَ لَهُ طَهُورٌ And water for ablution had been prepared and put for him.
3 يَسَّرَ الرَّجُلُ, (Verbal.Noun تَيْسِيرٌ, K,) The man's camels, and his sheep or goats, brought forth with ease, , and none of them perished.
4 يَسَّرَتِ الغَنَمُ The sheep, or goats, abounded in milk, and in like manner, الإِبِلُ the camels, and [so in the S, M, A, but in the K or] in offspring: and they brought forth: and they were ready to bring forth: and they abounded. A poet says, هُمَا سَيِّدَانَا يَزْعُمَانِ وإِنَّمَا يَسُودَانِنَا أَنْ يَسَّرَتْ غَنَمَا هُمَا They two are our two chiefs, as they assert; but they are only our chiefs inasmuch as their sheep, or goats, abound in milk and in offspring.
