, inf. n. تَشْبِيبٌ: see the preceding paragraph. Hence, تَشْبِيبُ الشِّعْرِ (tropical:) The making the commencement of poetry elegant, or ornate, by the mention of women: (L, TA:) or the primary meaning of التَّشْبِيبُ is the mention of the days of youth and of play or sport, and amatory language; and it is in the commencing of odes; and the commencement thereof is so called, absolutely, though there be not in it any mention of youth: (TA:) it means النَّسِيبُ, (S, O,) or النَّسِيبُ بِالنِّسَاءِ, (K, TA, [in the CK, erroneously, التَّشَبُّبُ بالنِساءِ,]) i. e. بِذِكْرِهِنَّ: (TA:) one says, يُشَبِّبُ بِقُلَانَةَ, (S, O,) and بِهَا ↓ يتشبّب [if this be not a mistranscription for يُشَبِّبُ], (TA,) meaning يَنْسِبُ بِهَا: (S, O, TA:) [see this fully expl. in art. نسب: i. e.] شبّب بِفُلَانَةَ, inf. n. تَشْبِيبٌ, means, (tropical:) He spoke of such a female in amatory language [in the commencement of his ode], (Msb, TA,) and alluded to the love of her: (Msb:) and شبّب قَصِيدَتَهُ (assumed tropical:) He embellished [the commencement of] his ode by the mention of women: (Mgh, Msb:) and شبّب قَصِيدَتَهُ بِفُلَانَةَ (tropical:) [He embellished the commencement of his ode by mentioning, in amatory language, such a female]: (A, TA:) and ↓ شَبَابٌ is used in the sense of تَشْبِيبٌ; thus a قَصِيدَة is said to be حَسَنَةٌ الشَّبَابِ (tropical:) [Beautiful in the mention of women &c.]; and Jereer is said to have been أَرَقُّ النَّاسِ شَبَابًا (tropical:) [The most elegant of men in the mention of women &c.]. (A, TA.) Hence, i. e. from تَشْبِيبٌ القَصِيدَةِ, may be derived التَّشْبِيبُ as a conventional term in the science of the division of inheritances; meaning (assumed tropical:) The mention of daughters according to the different degrees [of descent]: (Mgh:) it is as when one says, “ he died, and left three daughters of a son, subordinate one to another, and three daughters of a son's son, in like manner, and three daughters of a son's son's son, in like manner, and the sons died and the daughters remained. ” (O.) تَشْبِيبُ الكُتُبِ signifies (assumed tropical:) The commencing of books, or writings: and hence شَبَّبَ يُجَاوِبُهُ, occurring in a trad., meaning (assumed tropical:) He commenced answering him: not from the تَشْبِيب of women in poetry. (TA.)

(TA.) One says, سَقَى اللّٰهُ عَصْرَ ↓ الشَبِيبَةِ [May God freshen as with rain the times, or mornings, or afternoons, of youth, &c.], and عُصُورَ الشَّبَايءِبِ [the times, &c., of the states of youth, &c.].
