لَقَبٌ

لَقَبٌ A by-name; a surname; a nickname; syn. نَبَزٌ: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) a name of reproach; an opprobrious appellation: in this sense forbidden: (Mṣb:) it is said in the Ḳur, xlix., 11, لَا تَنَابَزُوا بِٱلْأَلْقَابِ Call not one another by nicknames; i. e., let not one of you call another by a name which he dislikes: (Jel:) also a by-name, or surname, which is not one of reproach: such are the surnames given to certain Imáms; الأَنْمَشُ and الأَخْفَشُ and الاَّعْرَجُ and the like; and such are not forbidden, because by them is not meant reproach, or disparagement, but they are meant as mere appellations given with the approval of the persons to whom they are applied. (Mṣb.) [A لَقَب is distinguished from a كُنْيَة, q. v.] Pl. أَلْقَابٌ. (Ṣ, Ḳ.)
