دِهَانٌ
1.
A red hide. (S, K. [See also دَهِينٌ.]) Hence, in the Qur'an, 55:37, فَكَانَتْ وَرْدَةً كَالدِّهَانِ, i. e. And shall become red, (S,) or of a rosecolour, (Zj, L in article ورد,) or of a red colour inclining to yellow, (L in that article,) like the red hide: (S, Bd, Jel:) or like the hide that is of a pure red colour: (TA:) or like that [oil] with which one anoints; see دُهْنٌ: or it is plural of دُهْنٌ: (Bd:) [thus] it means, according to Aboo-Is-hák [Zj], and shall become [red, &c., and] of various colours, by reason of the very great terror, like divers oils: or, according to Er-Rághib, like the dregs of oil, or of olive-oil; for this is another signification of الدهان.
