مِرْمَاةٌ

مِرْمَاةٌ An arrow with which one shoots (Aṣ, IAạr, T) at a butt: (Aṣ, T, Mgh:) an arrow with which one learns to shoot; (M, Ḳ, TA;) which is the worst kind of arrows: (TA:) or a small, weak arrow: (AḤn, M, Ḳ:) or an arrow with its [head of] iron: (Th, TA in art. حسب:) or, like سِرْوَةٌ, a round arrow-head: (AA, [so in the Ṣ, but in the TA it is IAạr,] S, TA:) [and app. a missile of any kind: (see مِرْدًى:)] pl. مَرَامٍ. (M.) When they see many مَرَامٍ in the quiver of a man, they say,

* وَنَبْلُ العَبْدِ أَكْثَرُهَا المَرَامِى *

[And the arrows of the slave, most of them are those that are small and weak]: a prov., said to mean that the free man purchases arrows at a high price, buying the broad and long iron head, because he is a man of war and of the chase; but the slave is only a pastor, and therefore is content with what are termed مَرَامٍ, because they are cheaper if he buy them; and if he ask for them as a gift, no one gives him aught but a مِرْمَاة. (M.) [See also the last sentence of this paragraph.]

It is also used, tropically, as meaning ‡ A مَنْجَنِيق [or kind of engine for casting stones at the enemy; app. such as was called by the Romans “onager,” or the like thereof]: because, like the مِرْمَاْة before mentioned, it is an instrument for casting, or shooting. (Mgh.) [See also مِرْمًى.] And [the pl.] مَرَامٍ also signifiesThunderbolts; syn. صَوَاعِقُ. (Bḍ in xviii. 38.)

Also A cloven hoof (Ṣ, Mgh, Ḳ) of a sheep or goat; because it is of the things that are thrown away: (Mgh:) [or,] accord. to AʼObeyd, (T, Ṣ,) a thing that is between the two hoofs of a sheep or goat; (T, Ṣ, M, Ḳ;) as alsoمَرْمَاةٌ↓: (AʼObeyd, T, M, Ḳ:) thus, he says, it is explained; but I know not what is its meaning: (T, Ṣ:) its dual occurs in the following trad.: لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ دُعِىَ إِلَى مِرْمَاتَيْنِ لَأَجَابَ وَهُوَ لَا يُجِيبُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ; (T, Ṣ; related also, with some variations, in the M and Mgh;) in which it is said to be the dual of مِرْمَاةٌ in the former of these two senses; [i. e. If any one of you were invited to partake of two hoofs of a sheep or goat, he would obey the invitation, but he will not obey the invitation to prayer;] (Ṣ, Mgh;) or, accord. to AʼObeyd, it is here the dual of this word in the latter of the same two senses: (T, Ṣ:) accord. to IAạr, (T, TA,) or Aboo-Saʼeed, it here means the kind of arrow called مِرْمَاةٌ: (T, Mgh, TA:) but in another, and similar, trad., مرماتين is followed by أَوْعَرْقٍ [i. e. “or a bone with some meat remaining upon it”]. (T, Z, TA.)
