أَتَى, this verb and

seen by a comparison of the exs. in this art. with
those in art.

he, or
it, came, or
came to be]; like

the Kur [xvi. 1],

TA.) And

Time, or
fortune, destroyed him. (M,
Mgh, Msb, K.) Destruction is meant in the Kur

يَحْتَسِبُوا(assumed tropical:) [
But God brought destruction upon them
whence they did not reckon, or
expect]. (EsSemeen, TA.) And it is said in the Kur [xvi. 28 {26}],

reached, the end of it; namely, a thing; (Kull;)

جردم;) and what was in a vessel; (K in art.
جرجب;) like
فَرَغَ مِنْهُ: (ISd cited in the TA in
art.
نكش:) or
i. q. مَرَّ بِهِ[which may be rendered
he went away with it; but this, as an explanation
of

what follows]. (Kull.) And one says,
أُتِىَ فُلَانٌ

meaning (assumed tropical:) [
Misfortunes, in the footsteps of which
were misfortunes,]
took away [
what was sweet, of
life, and rendered it bitter]. (TA.) One says

think that the last word should be
أُتِيتَ, agreeably
with a preceding phrase from the T,] (assumed tropical:)

deceived, or
deluded, and his faculty of sense
became altered to him, so that he imagined that to

2-b10-
أَتَى عَلَيْهِ

syn. with مَرَّ بِهِ[meaning
