هَنَّاهُ وَمَنَّاهُ

(in a tradition respecting the prostration for inattention) He (the devil) made him to think of pleasant things, or things productive of enjoyment, and of things wished for, or objects of desire, in his prayer. The former verb is pronounced thus to assimilate it to the latter. (TA.)

هنّأهُ بِالأَمْرِ, verbal noun تَهْنِيءَةٌ and تَهْنِىْءٌ; (S, K;) and ↓ هَنَأَهُ, (K,) verbal noun هَنْءٌ; (TA;) He congratulated him on the thing, (S, K,) such as the possession of a government, &c.: (S:) he said to him لِيَهْنِيءْكَ [May it give thee joy]. (K.)

[When the agent of the verb is God, the meaning necessarily is, He granted him enjoyment in the thing; made him to have enjoyment in it.]
