نَقِيبَةٌ
1.
Mind: synonym نَفْسٌ. (S, K,) You say فُلَانٌ مَيْمُونُ النقيبةِ
Such a one is of a fortunate mind, (A'Obeyd, S,) when the person referred to is fortunate in his affairs, succeeding in what he seeks after, or strives to accomplish: (ISk, S:) or when he is fortunate in his counsel, or advice: (Th, S:) or the phrase signifies such a one is fortunate in his actions, and in gaining what he seeks. (TA.) See also what follows. نَقِيبَةٌ is also said, in the K, to signify the same as عَقْلٌ (understanding, intellect, or intelligence); but, says SM, I have not found this in any other lexicon: only I have found the word explained in the L as signifying يُمْنُ الفِعْلِ (good fortune attending, or resulting from, an action): so probably عَقْلٌ is a mistake for فِعْلٌ. (TA.)

3.
Also, Penetration of judgment; acuteness; sagacity. (Ibn-Buzurj, K.)

لَوْنٌ, Colour, complexion, species, &c. (IAar.) Also هُوَ حَسَنُ النَّقِيبَةِ
He is of a good nature, or natural disposition: and in like manner, جَمِيلَةٍ
فُلَانٌ فِى مَنَاقِبَ
Such a one is a person of good dispositions, or natural qualities. (L.)

نَقِيبَةٌ A she-camel having a large udder: (ISd, K:) having her udder bound up with a cloth or the like, on account of its greatness and excellence: but AM says this is a corruption, and that the correct word is ثقيبة, with ث, meaning a she-camel “ abounding with milk. ” (TA.)
