سدل1 سَدَلَهُ, aor. ـُ (S, M, Mgh, Msb, K,) and سَدِلَ, (M, K,) inf. n. سَدْلٌ, (S, M, Mgh, Msb,) He let it loose, let it down, lowered it, or let it fall; (S, M, K;) namely, his garment, (S, M,) and hair, (Fr, M, K,) and a veil, or curtain; (M;) and سَدَنَهُ signifies the same; (Fr, TA;) as also ↓ اسدلهُ; (M, K;) or this latter is a mistake; (Mgh; [but this the author asserts because, he says, he had searched through books without finding it except in the “ Nahj-el-Balághah; ”]) not allowable; (Msb;) and the former signifies he let it down, or let it fall, namely, the garment, without drawing together its two sides: (Mgh, Msb:) or, as some say, he threw it upon his head, and let it loose, let it down, or let it fall, upon his shoulders: (Mgh:) and he let it down, or let it fall, namely, hair, not مَعْقُوف [i. e. made recurvate at the extremities], nor tied in knots: (Lth, TA:) and one says also, يَزْدُلُ ثَوْبَهُ, changing the س into ز. (Sb, M.) The سَدْل that is forbidden in prayer is The letting down one's garment without drawing together its two sides: or the enveloping oneself with his garment, and putting his arms within, and bowing the head and body, and prostrating oneself, in that state; as the Jews used to do; and this applies uniformly to the shirt and other garments: or the putting the middle of the إِزَار [or waist-wrapper] upon the head, and letting fall its two ends upon one's right and left, without making it to be upon his two shoulder-blades. (TA.) سَدَلَ عِمَامَتَهُ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ is said in a trad. [as meaning He made the end of his turban to hang down between his two shoulder-blades]. (Mgh.) And one says also, شَعَرَهُ عَلَى ↓ سدّل عَاتِقَيْهِ وَعُنُقِهِ, [meaning He let his hair fall down abundant and long upon his shoulders and his neck,] inf. n. تَسْدِيلٌ. (ISh, TA. [See its pass. part. n., voce مُنْسَدِلٌ.]) b2:  Also, aor. ـِ (M, K,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) He slit it, or rent it; namely, his garment. (M, K.) b3:  And سَدَلَ فِىالبِلَادِ, (O, K,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) He went away into the countries, or provinces. (O, K.) 2 سَدَّلَ see 1, last sentence but two.4 أَسْدَلَ see 1, first sentence.5 تَسَدَّلَ see the next paragraph.7 انسدل [and accord. to Freytag ↓ تسدّل also, but he names no authority for this, and I have not found it in any MS. lexicon, but it is agreeable with analogy as quasi-pass. of 2,] It was let loose, let down, lowered, or let fall; said of hair [&c.]. (MA, KL.) b2:  And انسدل يَعُدُو He was somewhat quick, or made some haste, running; like انسدر; the ر and ل being app. interchangeable. (Har p. 576.) Q.

(K.) In a verse of Homeyd Ibn-Thowr, as it is related by Yaakoob, السُّدُول is used as a sing., because it is of a measure which is [in some instances] that of a sing., such as السُّدُوس, meaning a sort of garment: but others relate it differently, saying السَّدِيل, which is correctly a sing.

(M, K.) [See أَسْدَلُ.]سِدِلَّى, of the measure فِعِلَّى, an arabicized word, originally, in Pers\., سِهْ دِلَهْ [“ three-hearted ”], as though it were three chambers in one chamber (كَأَنَّهُ ثَلاَثَةُ بُيُوتٍ فِى بَيْتٍ), like the حَارِىّ بِكُمَّيْنِ [i. e., I suppose, “like the garment of El-Heereh  with two sleeves; ” app. meaning that it signifies An oblong chamber with a wide and deep recess on either hand at, or near, one extremity thereof; so that its ground-plan resembles an expanded garment with a pair of very wide sleeves: in the present day, it is commonly applied to a single recess of the kind above mentioned, the floor of which is elevated about half a foot or somewhat more or less above the floor of the main chamber, and which has a mattress and cushions laid against one or two or each of its three sides]. (S.) [Golius explains it, as on the authority of the S, (in which is nothing relating to it but what I have given above,) thus: Pers\. سِيدَلَهْ seu  سِدَرَهْ, i. q. سُدَّرٌ.]سَدِيلٌ The thing [or hanging] that is let down, or suspended, upon the [kind of camel-vehicle  for women called] هَوْدَج: (S, O, K:) pl.

(TA.) b2:  Also A thing [app. a hanging or curtain] that is extended across, or sideways, (يُعَرَّضُ,) in the space from side to side of the [tent called] خِبَآء (فِى سَعَةِ الخِبَآءِ): and (some say, M) the curtain of the حَجَلَة [or bridal canopy, &c.,] of a woman: (M, K:) pls. as above. (TA.) سَنْدَلٌ, or سَمَنْدَلٌ, (accord. to different copies of the S,) A certain bird, that eats [the poisonous plant called] بِيش [generally applied to the common wolf's-bane, aconitum napellus]: on the authority of El-Jáhidh.

(As, IAar, K.) ذَكَرٌ أَسْدَلُ An inclining penis: (M, K:) pl. [by rule سُدْلٌ, but it is said to be] سُدُلٌ, i. e. like  كُتُبٌ.
