TA,) inf. n. إِنْتِيَاشٌ: (S, K:) it is also written
with ء; (A, K, TA, in art. نأش;) and so is
تَنَاوُشٌ. (Msb, and K in art. نأش.) And He
took him, or reached him, to seize his beard, or
his head. (ISk, S.) You say, نَاشَهُ نَوْشَةً خَفِيفَةً
[He reached him with a feeble, or slight reach,
with his spear or the like]. (A.) And الرِّمَاحُ
تَنُوشُهُ The spears reach him: occurring in a
poem of Dureyd Ibn-Es-Simmeh. (TA.) And
الظِّبَآءُ تَنُوشُ الأَرَاكَ [The antelopes reach and take
with their mouths of the trees called اراك]; as
also ↓ تَنْتَاشُهُ. (A.) And النَّاقَةُ تَنُوشُ بِفِيَها الحَوْضَ
[The she-camel reaches and takes with her mouth
of the water of the drinking-trough]. (TA.)
A poet says, (ISk, S,) namely, Gheylán Ibn-
Horeyth Er-Raba'ee, (TA,)
فَهْىَ تَنُوشُ الحَوْضَ نَوْشًا مِنْ عَلَا
نَوْشًا بِهِ تَقْطَعُ أَجْوَازَ الْفَلَا
And she reaches and takes of the drinking-trough,
from above it, a copious draught by means of
which she traverses [the middles of the] waterless
deserts without needing other water. (S.) You
say also, نُشْتُ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ شَيْئًا I obtained somewhat of the food. (TA.) And الوَصِيَّةُ نَوْشٌ مِنَ
المَعْرُوفِ [The testament is a means of an attaining of benefit]: i. e., the testator gives [for يَتَنَاوَلُ
in my original I read يُنَاوِلُ] to the legatee without diminishing his property [during his own
life]. (TA.) And it is said in the Kur, [xxxiv.
51,] وَأَنَّى لَهُمُ ٱلتَّنَاوُشُ ↓ مِنْ مَكَانٍ بَعِيدٍ meaning,
[But how shall] the attaining of belief [be possible to them from a distant place, i. e.,] in the
world to come, when they have disbelieved in
him [namely Mohammad] in the present world?
in which passage some read [التَّنَاؤُشُ,] with ء.
(S.) [See art. نأش.] Accord. to Ibn-'Abbád,
in this instance, ↓ التناوش signifies Returning.
(K, * TA.) And 'Áïsheh said of her father,
فَٱنْتَاشَ ↓ الدِّينَ بِنَعْشِهِ إِيَّاهُ And he restored the
religion, and laid hold upon it and took it from
