means The pastured horses: (S, Msb, TA:) or the horses sent forth with their riders upon them: (AZ, Az, Msb, TA:) or it means, (TA,) or means also, (S, Msb,) the marked horses; (S, Msb, TA;) marked by a colour differing from the rest of the colour; or by branding: (TA:) or the horses of goodly make. (Ham p. 62, and TA. [See the Qur'an, 3:12.])

مُسَوَّمِينَ, in the Qur'an, 3:121, may mean, according to Akh, either Marked [by the colours, or the like, of their horses, so as to be distinguished from others], or sent forth; and is thus with ي and ن [because applied to rational beings, namely, angels, and] because the horses were marked, or sent forth, and upon them were their riders. (S.)

And حِجَارَةً مِنْ طِينٍ مُسَوَّمَةً عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ, (S, * M, K, *) in the Qur'an, 51:33 and 34], (S, M,) means [Stones of baked clay] having upon them the semblance of seals [impressed in the presence of thy Lord], (S, K, Er-Rághib,) in order that they may be known to be from God: (Er-Rághib:) or marked (Zj, M, Bd, K, Jel) with whiteness and redness, (Zj, M, K,) as is related on the authority of El-Hasan, (Zj, M,) or with a mark whereby it shall be known that they are not of the stones of this world (M, K) but of the things wherewith God inflicts punishment, (M,) or [each] with the name of him upon whom it is to be cast: (Jel:) or sent forth: (Bd, TA:) but Er-Rághib says that the first is the proper way of explaining it. (TA.)
