عِيَانٌ

[And Clear, evident, manifest, open, or public: thus, by the Pers. word اَشْكَارْ, the KL explains عيان, which, in my copy of that work, is written عَيَان, evidently, I think, a mistranscription for عِيَان, a verbal noun of 3, used in the sense of a pass. particle n., agreeably with a well-known license, lit. meaning ocularly seen: see ضِمَارٌ, under which I have rendered its contrary by “ unseen; not apparent. ”]

See also عَيْنٌ, latter half.

Also A certain iron thing among the appertenances of the
فَدَّان, (S, K,) or فَدَان [i. e. plough], this word (فدان) written in the copies of the S, [as in the K,] with teshdeed to the د, but, as IB says, it is without teshdeed when signifying the implement with which ploughing is performed: according to AA, the لُوءْمَة, i. e. the سِنَّة [or share] with which the earth is ploughed up, is called the عِيَان
when it is upon the
فَدَان [or plough]: or, according to the M, the عِيَان is a ring at the extremity of the
لُوءْمَة
and the
سليب. [apparently a mistranscription] and the
دُجْرَانِ [two pieces of wood upon which the share is bound]: (TA:) plural [of pauc.] أَعْيِنَةٌ and [of mult.] عُيُنٌ, with two dammehs; (K;) or عِينٌ, originally of the measure فُعْلٌ [i. e. عُيْنٌ]; (S;) according to AA, عِينٌ, with kesr only; according to IB, عُيُنٌ, with two dammehs, and, when the ى is made quiescent, عِينٌ, not عُيْنٌ. (TA).

اِبْنَا
عِيَانٍ means Two birds, (K, TA,) from the flight, or alighting-places, or cries, &c., of which, the Arabs augur: (TA:) or two lines which are marked upon the ground (S, K) by the
عَايءِف [or augurer], by means of which one augurs, from the flight, &c., of birds; (S;) or which are made for the purpose of auguring; (TA;) then the augurer says,
اِبْنَىْ عِيَانْ أَسْرِعَا البَيَانْ [O two sons of 'Iyán, hasten ye the manifestations] (K, * TA: [see 1 in article خط:]) in the copies of the K, اِبْنَا is here erroneously put for اِبْنَى or, as some say اِبْنَا عِيانٍ means two well-known diviningarrows: (TA:) and when it is known that the gaming arrow of him who plays therewith wins, one says, جَرَى ابْنَا عِيَانٍ [apparently meaning The two sons of 'Iyán have hastened. i. e. the two arrows so termed: as seems to be indicated by a verse cited in the L (in which it is followed by the words بِالشِّوَاءِ المُضَهَّبِ
with the roast meat not thoroughly cooked), and also by what here follows]: (S, L, K. TA:) these [arrows] being called اِبْنَ عِيَانٍ because by means of them the people [playing at the game called المَيْسِر see the winning and the food [i. e. the hastily cooked flesh of the slaughtered camel].
