Cautions

Points that affect how this root should be read.

  • The Quran occurrences and contextual glosses identify the form in context, but the supplied lexical evidence does not provide a qualifying Lane or Mufradat definition for a numbered sense.

Unassigned or ambiguous evidence

  • The Lane entry consists only of a cross-reference to ككب, while no cross-reference context or Mufradat/Maqayis entry was supplied; therefore the contextual gloss “star/stars” is not promoted to a lexical sense.
