وَرَطَهَا He veiled, concealed, hid, or covered, her, or it, or them; [to what the pronoun relates is not said; but I incline to think that the right reading is وَرَّطَهَا, and that the pronoun relates to camels; (see 2;)] as alsoاورطها↓: (L, TA:) from IAạr. (TA.)

ورّطهُ, (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ,) inf. n. تَوْرِيطٌ, (Ṣ, Mṣb,) He made him to fall into what is termed وَرْطَة [properly and also tropically, or in its primary sense and also in any of its subordinate senses]; as alsoاورطهُ↓, (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ,) inf. n. إِيرَاطٌ: (Mṣb:) both signify † he made him to fall into that from which he could not extricate himself: (TA:) or into that from which he could not easily extricate himself. (Mṣb.)

ورّط إِبِلَهُ فى إِبِلٍ أَخْرَى † He hid, or concealed, his camels among other camels [in order that they might escape the notice of the collector of the poor-rates]; as alsoاورط↓. (Ḳ.) [See also 1, and 3.]

وِرَاطٌ (Ṣ, Mṣb, TA) and مُوَارَطَةٌ (TA) [The act of mutually making to fall into what is termed وَرْطَة.]

[And hence,] † The act of mutually deceiving, beguiling, or circumventing; or endeavouring to deceive, beguile, or circumvent; (TA;) or the act of deceiving, beguiling, or circumventing; (Ṣ, Mṣb;) and the acting, or advising, or counselling, dishonestly, or insincerely; (Ṣ, Mṣb, TA;) andوَرْطٌ↓ andوِرَاطَةٌ↓, the latter on the authority of J, [accord. to some copies of the Ṣ, but in other copies وِرَاطٌ,] signify the same [as substs.] (TA.) You say, لَا تُوَارِطْ جَارَكَ فَإِنَّ الوِرَاطَ يُورِدُ الأَوْراَطَ † [Do not thou practise mutual deceit with thy neighbour, or endeavour to deceiving him,, &c., for the doing so brings upon its author things, or affairs, from which it is difficult to escape]. (Z, TA.) And it is said in trad, لَا خِلَاطَ وَلَا وِرَاطَ, which is like his [Moḥammad's] saying, † There shall be no putting together what is separate, nor separating what is put together, from fear of the poor-rate: (Ṣ:) خلاط has been explained in its place: (TA:) وراط [has also been variously explained in that place, and, it is said,] signifies the putting together what is separate: and the reverse: (Ḳ:) or the dispersing camels (Ḳ, TA) among other camels: (TA:) or the hiding camels among other camels; (Th, Ḳ;) or in a low, or depressed, piece of ground; in order that the collector of the poor-rate may not see them: (Ḳ:) or the making one another to fall into a وَرْطَة, (TA,) one saying to the collector of the poor-rate, “Such a one has that for which a poor-rate is due,” when he has not; (Ḳ, TA;) so accord. to IAạr: accord. to Ibn-Háni, it is from أَوْرَطَ الجَرِيرَ فِى عُنُقِ البَعِيِرِ. (TA.) See 4.

see 2, in two places; and 1.

اورط الجَرِيرَ فِى عُنُقِ البَعِير † He put the end of the جرير [q. v.] of the camel into its ring, and then pulled it so as to throttle him. (Ibn-Háni. Ḳ.)

تورّط فِى وَرْطَةٍ He fell into what is termed وَرْطَة [properly and also tropically, or in its primary sense, and also in any of its subordinate senses]. (Ṣ.) You say, تورّطتِ الغَنَمُ وَغَيْرُهَا The sheep, or goats, &c., fell into mud from which they could not extricate themselves; or into a depressed piece of ground in which was no way directing to escape: and hence the verb is used in relation to any straitness or difficulty. (Mṣb.) Thus you say, تورّط فُلَانٌ فِى الأَمْرِ † Such a one undertook, or embarked in, the affair, and could not easily extricate himself; and soاستورط↓ فِيهِ: (Mṣb:) or the former signifies † he fell into the affair, or case: (Ḳ:) or † he became entangled in the affair, and could not easily extricate himself from it; (TA;) and so↓ the latter: (Sh, Ḳ, TA:) and تورّط andاستورط↓ both signify he stuck fast: or † he perished; or died. (TA.)

see 5, in three places.

استورط مَعَ فُلَانٍ † He behaved proudly, haughtily, or insolently, in speech, with such a one. (TA.)

وَرْطَهٌ Slime, or thin mud, [in the CK, الرَّحْلُ is erroneously put for الوَحْلُ,] into which sheep or goats fall, and from which they cannot extricate themselves: (Mṣb, Ḳ:) this, or, as some say, what here next follows, is the primary signification: (Mṣb:) a low, or depressed, piece of ground or land, in which is no way, or road, (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ,) directing to escape: (Mṣb:) this is said by AʼObeyd to be the primary signification: (Ṣ:) a deep hollow, cavity, or pit, in the ground: (TA:) a deep hollow, cavity, or pit, formed for the purpose of a stratagem, such as may be in a mountain, occasioning difficulty to him who falls into it: (Aṣ:) and hence, (TA,) a well: (Ḳ, TA:) and anything that is غَامِض [app. here meaning low, or depressed]: (Ḳ:) also, by derivation from the first of these significations, (Mṣb,) or from the second, (Ṣ, Mṣb,) [or some other,] † perdition; or destruction; or death: (Ṣ, Mṣb, Ḳ:) and † [any embarrassing, or difficult, case, or affair;] any case, or affair, from which escape is difficult: (Ḳ:) pl. [of pauc.] أَوْرَاطٌ, (Ṣ, IS,) the ة in the sing. being app. regarded as elided; (IS;) and [of mult.] وِرَاطٌ, (Ḳ,) and وَرَطَاتٌ. (TA.)
