صَفِيحٌ

See صَفِيحَةٌ.

[It is properly a coll. gen. n.: as such signifying Any kind of thing made flat and broad or wide: as, for instance, plate, or expanded metal: n. un. with ة, meaning a piece thereof.]

[Hence, as it is supposed to be an expanded solid substance,] الصَّفِيحُ, (K,) or الصَّفِيحُ الأَعْلَى, (TA,) is one of the names of Heaven. (K, TA.)
