(Ksh, Bḍ.)

رَكُنَ, inf. n. رَكَانَةٌ (Ṣ, Ḳ) and رُكُونَةٌ (Ḳ) and رَكَانِيَةٌ, (TḲ,) [primarily, it seems, said of a mountain, meaning It was inaccessible, or difficult of access, having high, or strong أَرْكَان i. e. sides or angles: see Ḥar p. 561; and see رَكِينٌ, below; and 5.]

[And hence,]He (a man) was, or became, firm, (Ḥar p. 561,) still, or motionless, (TA,) grave, staid, steady, sedate; or calm. (Ṣ, Ḳ, TA.)


[2. {ركّن}]

[ركّن is said by Golius, as on the authority of the KL, to signify He made like, “similem fecit:” and hence Freytag also thus explains it: but it is زكّن that has this signification. In my copy of the KL, تَزْكِينٌ (not تَرْكِينٌ) is expl. by مانند كردن.]


4. ⇒ اركن

اركنهُ He made him to incline [إِلَى غَيْرِهِ to another]; syn. أَمَالَهُ: [and to trust to, or rely upon, another, so as to be, or become, easy, or quiet, in mind: or to lean, rest, or rely, upon another: see 1:] whence a reading in the Ḳur xi. 115. (Ksh, Bḍ.*) See 1.

(Ḥam p. 478.)

Root: ركن - Entry: رُكْنٌ Signification: A2

[Hence, † A stay, or support, of any kind: see an ex. voce مِرْجَمٌ: whence, perhaps,] one says, تَمَسَّحْتُ بِأَرْكَانِهِ, meaning تَبَرَّكْتُ بِهِ[i. e. I looked for a blessing by means of him, or it]. (TA.)A thing whereby one is strengthened (مَا يُقَوَّى بِهِ [in the CK ما تَقَوَّىبه]), such as dominion (مُلْك [in the CK مَلِك]), and an army, or a military force,, &c.: (Ḳ:) and thus it has been explained as occurring in the Ḳur [li. 39], where it is said, فَتَوَلَّى بِرُكْنِهِ, (TA,) i. e. † And he turned away from belief with his forces; because they were to him like the رُكْن [properly so termed]. (Jel.) † A man's kinsfolk; or nearer, or nearest, relations; or clan; or tribe; syn. عَشِيرَةٌ: (AHeyth, TA:) † a man's people, or party; and the higher among them; and the persons by whom he is aided and strengthened: thought by ISd to be thus called by way of comparison [to a رُكْن properly so termed]: and thus it has been explained as used in the Ḳur [xi. 82], where it is said, أَوْ آوِىَ رُكْنٍ شَدِيدٍ[Or that I might have recourse to a strong people, or party,, &c.]: (TA:) or it here means عَشِيرَة [explained above].

Root: ركن - Entry: رُكْنٌ Signification: A4

And † A thing, an affair, a case, an event, or an action, of great magnitude or moment, momentous, formidable, or terrible. (AHeyth, Ḳ.) Thus AHeyth explains it as used in the saying of En-Nábighah [Edh-Dhubyánee],

* لَا تَقْذِفَنِّى بِرُكْنٍ لَا كِفَآءَ لَهُ *

[By no means reproach thou me with a momentous, or a formidable, thing or action, or an enormity, that has not its equal; though (he proceeds to say) the enemies incite thee, with companies of men aiding one another]. (TA.)

Root: ركن - Entry: رُكْنٌ Signification: A5

In the conventional language [of the schools], رُكْنُ الشَّىْءِ means † [The essence of the thing; or] that whereby the thing subsists: from التَّقَوُّمُ; because the قِوَام [or subsistence] of the thing is by its رُكْن: not from القِيَام: else it would necessarily be the case that the agent would be a رُكْن to the action; and the substance, to the accident; and the thing to which a quality is attributed, to the quality: (KT:) it is † that without which the thing has no subsistence: (Kull:) and is [also] applied to † [an essential, or essential part, of the thing; i. e.,] a part of the مَاهِيَّة [or essence] of the thing, (Kull, [and in like manner أَرْكَانُ الشَّىْءِ is explained in the Mṣb as meaning the parts of the ماهيّة of the thing,]) as when we say that القِيَام is a رُكْن of الصَّلَاْة; as well as to † the whole مَاهيّة [of the thing]: (Kull:) [thus] أَرْكَانُ العِبَادَاتِ means † the fundamentals [or essentials] of the services of religion, by the neglect, or non-observance, of which they are ineffectual, or null, or void: (TA:) or, as some say, رُكْنُ الشَّىْءِ means that whereby the thing is complete; and this is intrinsic therein; differing from the شَرْط [or condition] thereof, which is extrinsic thereto. (KT.)


رَكِينٌ

رَكِينٌ A mountain having high أَرْكَان [i. e. sides, or angles]: (Ṣ, Ḳ:) or having strong اركان: (TA:) or inaccessible, or difficult of access, having اركان. (Ḥar p. 561.)

مُرَكَّنٌ

مُرَكَّنٌ A thing having أَرْكَان [here meaning corners, or angles]. (TA.)
