فَتِيلٌ
2.
And A slender cord, of [the fibres called] لِيف, (M, K,) or of [the bark termed] خَزَم, or of
عَرَق [meaning plaited palmleaves], or of thongs, (M,) which is bound upon the ring (M, K) called
عِيَان
which is at the end (مُنْتَهى), (M,) or which is at the place of meeting (مُلْتَقَى), (K,) of the
دُجْرَانِ [two pieces of wood to which the share of the plough is attached]. (M, K.)
3.
[And A tent for a wound: a term used by surgeons: see دَسَمَ الجُرْحَ, in article دسم.]
4.
And What one twists [or rolls] (S, M, O, K) between his fingers (M, K) or between the two fingers [meaning the thumb and fore finger], (S, O,) of dirt [that has collected upon the skin when it has not been recently washed]; (S, O, K;) as also
فَتِيلَةٌ. (M, K.) So says I' Ab in explaining the saying in the Qur'an, 4:52, and 79 also according to some readers, and xvii. 73], وَلَا يُظْلَمُونَ فَتِيلًا [meaning (tropical:) And they shall not be wronged by their being deprived of the most paltry right; or they shall not be wronged a whit]: (O, TA:) or the [primary, or proper,] meaning in this phrase is what here follows. (TA; and in like manner Bd says in iv. 52.)
5.
And The سَحَاة [or integument, meaning the pellicle], (M, K, TA,) or the خَيْط [or thread, meaning the filament], (Bd in iv. 52,) that is in the
شَقّ [or cleft, resembling a crease, which extends along one side] of the datestone: (M, K, TA: but for شَقّ, the CK has شِقّ:) ISk says, the قِطْمِير is the thin integument upon the date-stone, and, he adds, (T, TA, *) the فَتِيل is what is in the
شَقّ
of the date-stone. (T, S, O, Msb, TA.) Hence, (M,) one says, مَا أُغْنِى
عَنْهُ فَتِيلًا, (M, and so in the K except that the latter has عَنْكَ instead of عَنْهُ,) meaning [I do not avail, or profit, him, (or according to the K, thee,) or I do not stand, or serve, him (or thee) in stead,] as much as that
سَحَاة, (M,) or a whit; (K;) and in like manner,
فَتْلَةً, (Th, M, K, [in the CK, erroneously, فَتِيلَةً,]) and
فَتَلَةً. (IAar, M, K.)
