(TA.) مَا حَكَّ ظَهْرِى مِثْلُ يَدِى [Nothing has scratched my back like my hand] is a prov., meaning that one should abstain from relying upon others: and the same meaning is intended in the following verse: مَا حَكَّ جِلْدَكَ مِثْلُ ظُفْرِكْ فَتَوَّلَ أَنْتَ جَمِيعَ أَمْرِكْ [Nothing has scratched thy skin like thy nail: so manage thou thyself all thine affair].

So in the saying, مَا بَقِيتَ فِى فِيهِ حَاكَّةٌ [There remained not in his mouth a tooth]. (S.)

(S, K.) Hence the saying of El-Hobáb Ibn-El-Mundhir El-Ansáree, (S,) أَنَا جُذَيْلُهَا المُحَكَّكُ وَعُذَيْقُهَا المُرَجَّبُ, [see جِذْلٌ,] meaning I am he by means of whose counsel, or advice, and forecast, relief is sought: (S, K: *) or it has another meaning, preferred by Az, i. e., that the sayer was one who had been strengthened by experience, who had experienced and known affairs, and been tried, or proved, by them, and found to be one who bore up against difficulty, strong and firm, such as would not flee from his adversary: or the meaning is, I am, exclusively of [the rest of] the Ansár, a rubbing-post for him who would oppose me, and with me should the stubborn be coupled: the dim. form is here used for the purpose of aggrandizement.
