دبّر الأَمْرَ

, (T, M, A,) or فِى الأَمْرِ (S,) verbal noun تَدْبِيرٌ, (T, S, K,) He considered, or forecast, the issues, or results, of the affair, or event, or case; (TA;) and so ↓ تدبّرهُ: (Mgh:) or its end, issue, or result; (T, M, K;) as also ↓ تدبّرهُ: (T, M, Msb, K:) or he looked to what would, or might, be its result: and فِيهِ ↓ تدبّر he thought, or meditated, upon it; (S;) [as also ↓ تدبّرهُ:] Aktham Ibn-Seyfee said to his sons, أَعْجَازَ ↓ يَابَنِىَّ لَا تَتَدَبَّرُوا أُمُورٍ قَدْ وَلَّتْ صُدُورُهَا [O my sons, think not upon the ends of things whereof the beginnings have passed]: (T: [see عَجُزٌ:]) and in the Qur'an, 4:84 it is said, القُرْانَ ↓ أَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُونَ Will they, then, not consider the meanings of the Qur'an, and endeavour to obtain a clear knowledge of what is in it? (Bd:) and again, in the Qur'an, 23:70, القَوْلَ ↓ أَفَلَمْ يَدَّبَّرُوا Have they, then, not thought upon, (TA,) and endeavoured to understand, (يَتَفَهَّمُوا, K,) what has been said to them in the Qur'an? for ↓ تَدَبُّرٌ signifies the thinking, or meditating, upon [a thing], and endeavouring to understand [it]; synonym تَفَكُّرٌ and تَفَهُّمٌ: (TA:) and ↓ تدبّرهُ he looked into it, considered it, examined it, or studied it, repeatedly, in order to know it, or until he knew it. (Msb in article امل.) دبّر أَمْرًا, verbal noun as above, signifies [also] He did, performed, or executed, a thing, or an affair, with thought, or consideration. (Msb.) [And He devised, planned, or plotted, a thing, عَلَى غَيْرِهِ against another. And hence, He managed, conducted, ordered, or regulated, an affair; because the doing so requires consideration of the issues, or results, of the affair. You say, دبّر أُمُورَ البِلَادِ, and, elliptically, دبّر البِلَادَ, He managed, conducted, ordered, or regulated, the affairs of the provinces, or country: and in like manner, the affairs of a house. تَدْبِيرٌ is also attributed to irrational animals; as, for example, to horses; meaning their conducting the affair of victory: and to inanimate things; as, for example, to stars; meaning their regulating the alternations of seasons &c.: see Bd in lxxix. 5. And دبّر alone signifies He acted with consideration of the issues, or results, of affairs, or events, or cases; acted with, or exercised, forecast, or forethought; or acted with policy.]

دبّر عَبْدَهُ, (M, Msb,) verbal noun as above, (T, S, Mgh, Msb, K,) He made his slave to be free after his own death, (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) saying to him, Thou art free after my death: (T, TA:) he made the emancipation of his slave to depend upon his own death. (TA.)

Th] disallows يُدَبِّرُهُ as meaning he relates it; and says that it is يَذْبُرُهُ, with ذ, meaning “he knows it, or learns it, well, soundly, or thoroughly;” synonym يُتْقِنُهُ. (T.)
