لنلَنْ A particle denoting negation, rendering the aor.  mansoob, and restricting it to the future sense: not implying corroboration of the negation, nor its never-ending continuance; though Z asserts it to imply these. (K.) [Hence لَنْ يَضْرِبَ signifies simply He will not beat: not he assuredly will not beat; nor he will never beat.]
