دَهِينٌ

[Anointed with oil, &c.; i. q. ↓ مَدْهُونٌ and مَدْهُونَةٌ]. You say لِحْيَةٌ دَهِينٌ (K) and دَهِينَةٌ (TA) and ↓ دَاهِنٌ, (K,) [the last, properly, a possessive epithet,] meaning مَدْهُونَةٌ [i. e. A beard anointed with oil, &c.]. (K, TA.)

And A hide intensely red. (JK. [See also دِهَانٌ.])

-A2- Also, applied to a she-camel, (JK, S, K,) (tropical:) Having little milk: (S, K:) or having very little milk; (JK;) not yielding a drop of milk (JK, TA) when her dug is squeezed: (JK:) according to Er-Rághib, having the meaning of an act. particle n., i. e. that yields as much as that with which one may anoint himself: or, as some say, having the meaning of a pass. particle n., because she is anointed [or as though she were anointed] with the milk, by reason of its scantiness; and this is the more probable, because it has not the affix ة: plural دُهُنٌ. (TA.)

And, applied to a stallion, (assumed tropical:) That does not impregnate at all: as though because of the paucity of his seminal fluid. (TA.)

And Weak; applied to a man, and to a thing: one says, أَتَيْتَ بِأَمْرٍ دَهِينٍ [Thou didst, or saidst, or thou hast done, or said, a weak thing]: and Ibn-Hiráweh says,

لِيَنْتَزِعُوا تُرَاثَ بَنِى تَمِيمٍ

لَقَدٌ ظَنُّوا بِنَا ظَنًّا دَهِينَا

[In order that they might wrest the inheritance of the sons of Temeem, verily they have opined of us a weak opining]. (TA.)
