احمى

Also He made the sun, and fire, to be vehemently hot; said of God: (Lh, K:) and in like manner, a piece of iron; said of a man: (Msb:) [or] he heated an iron nail, (ISk, K,) and a piece of iron, (ISk, S,) &c., in the fire: (ISk:) one should not say حَمَى in this sense; (ISk, S, Msb, TA;) apparently, in chaste speech; for otherwise one does say, حَمَى الشَّىْءَ فِى النَّارِ, meaning He put the thing into the thing into the fire [and so heated it]. (TA.) And احمى المِيسَمَ and احمى عَلَيْهِ He kindled fire upon the branding-iron [and so heated it]. (Mgh.)

[Hence,] احماهُ عَلَى القِتَالِ [He excited him to ardour for fight]. (S in article حرض; &c.)
