(TA. [See, however, جَأّبٌ, below.]) The rájiz (Ru-beh  Ibn-El-'Ajjáj, TA) says, وَاللّٰهُ رَاعِى عَمَلِى وَجَأْبِى[And God is mindful of my work and my earning]. (S, TA.)

Accord. to the K [and the A], it signifies also Whatever is rude, or coarse; thick, gross, big, or bulky: (كُلُّ جَافٍ غَلِيظٍ:) but in the L, we find كَاهِلٌ جَأْبٌ غَلِيظٌ [meaning that جَأْبٌ applied to the part of the back termed كاهل signifies thick, or big]: and خَلْقٌ جَأْبٌ as meaning a thick, gross, big, or bulky, make.

(A.) [See also art. جوب.] b4:  You say also, فُلَانٌ شَخْتُ الآلِ جَأْبُ الصَّبْرِ (assumed tropical:)  Such a one is slender in body, or person, [but] great in patience. (S.) A2:  The navel. (K.)
