ريع1 رَاعَ, aor. ـِ (Msb, K,) inf. n. رَيْعٌ (S, Mgh, Msb, K) and رُيُوعٌ (TA) and رِيَاعٌ (Lh, TA) and رَيَعَانٌ, (TA,) It increased, or augmented; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) said of wheat and other things: or, as some say, it denotes زِيَادَة [i. e. it signifies it became redundant, or it exceeded, as will be seen in what follows; but the truth is, that it has both of these significations; the latter] in relation to flour, and to bread. (TA.) You say, رَاعَتِ الحِنْطَةُ, (S, Msb, K,) aor. ـِ inf. n. رَيْعٌ [&c.]; (Msb;) and ↓ أَرَاعَت, (S, K,) which latter is said by Az to be more commonly used than the former; (TA;) and الطَّعَامُ ↓ رَيَّعَ [which is the same as رَيَّعَتِ الحِنْطَةُ]; (TA;) The wheat increased, or augmented; or received increase and blessing from God; or throve by the blessing of God: (S, Msb, K, TA:) and in like manner one says of other things. (Msb.) And رَاعَتِ الشَّجَرَةُ, and ↓ اراعت, but the former is rare, The tree became abundant in its produce, or fruit. (AHn.) And sometimes they said, (S,) الإِبِلُ ↓ اراعت (S, IF, K) (tropical:)  The camels had many young ones; (S;) they increased, and had many young ones. (IF, K.) One says also, رَاعَ الطَّعَامُ, and ↓ اراع, The wheat became redundant; or had a part, or portion, redundant; [app. meaning, over and above the original measure;] in the kneading and the making of bread; syn. صَارَ لَهُ زِيَادَةٌ. (S.) [See the first sentence above; and see رَيْعٌ, below.] And رَاعَ فِى يَدِى كَذَا Such a thing was redundant, or remained over and above, in my hand; as also رَاقَ; syn. زَادَ: (L in this art., and TA in art. روع:) Sgh has mistranscribed the explanation, زاد, in his two books, [the TS and the O,] writing فَادَ; and the author of the K has imitated him in mentioning this in art. روع, instead of the present art., which is its proper place, but has written for the explanation أَفَادَ.

A2: رَاعَ, aor. ـِ (IDrd, S, K,) inf. n. رَيْعٌ, (S, TA,) He, or it, returned; went, or came, back; reverted: (IDrd, S, K:) and رَاعَ, aor. ـُ (IDrd, and K in art. روع,) inf. n. رُوَاعٌ, (K in that art.,) signifies the same; (IDrd, and K in art. روع;) or it returned to its place: (TA in that art.:) but the former verb is the more common. (TA in the present art.) One says, of camels that have run away, صَاحَ عَلَيْهَا الرَّاعِى فَرَاعَتْ إِلَيْهِ [The pastor cried out at them, and] they returned to him. (TA.) And وَعَظْتُهُ فَأَبِى أَنْ يَرِيعَ [I exhorted him, but he refused] to return, or revert. (TA.) And فُلَانٌ مَا يَرِيعُ بِكَلَامِكَ وَلا بِصَوْتِكَ Such a one does not return, or revert, by reason of thy speech nor by reason of thy voice. (TA.) and you say of vomit, رَاعَ مِنْهُ شَىْءٌ Somewhat of it returned: (S:) and رَاعَ عَلَيْهِ it returned to his inside. (TA.) And in like manner one says of anything that returns to him, رَاعَ, aor. ـِ (TA.) b2:  رَاعُوا, They drew, gathered, or collected, themselves together; (Ibn- 'Abbád, TA;) as also ↓ تريّعوا; and ↓ ريّعوا, (Ibn-'Abbád, K,) inf. n. تَرْيِيعٌ.

A4:  [It is also said that] رَاعَ, aor. ـِ is like رَدَّ [app. as signifying He returned a reply, or an answer, to a person; for it is mentioned immediately after رَيْعٌ as syn. with مَرْجُوعٌ]. (TA.) 2 ريّع الطَّعَامُ: see 1; second sentence. b2:  ريّعوا They ascended, or ascended upon, the رِيعَة [n. un. of رِيعٌ, q. v.].

(TA.) A2:  اراع الشَّىْءَ He increased, or augmented, the thing; or made it to increase, or augment; as also ↓ ريّعهُ.

(TA.) b3:  In like manner, (S,) said of the mirage (سَرَاب), [It quivered, vibrated, or moved to and fro;] it came and went; (S, K;) as also تَرَيَّهَ: (TA:) and ↓ رَاعَ, aor. ـِ (TA,) inf. n. رَيْعٌ (K, TA) and رَيَعَانٌ, (TA,) said of the same, it was, or became, in a state of commotion or agitation; it quivered, vibrated, or moved to and fro.

(Ibn- 'Abbád, K.) b5:  (assumed tropical:)  He paused; or waited: (O, L, K:) or (so in the L, but in the O and K “ and ”) he paused; or hesitated; or held, refrained, or abstained. (O, L, K.)

(TA.) 10 إِسْتَرْيَعَ see 5.رَيْعٌ [see 1, of which it is an inf. n.] Increase; syn. زِيَادَةٌ [which may be meant to include the third of the significations here following]; as in the saying, هٰذَا طَعَامٌ كَثِيرُ الرَّيْعِ [This is wheat of much increase]. (Mgh.) b2:  (assumed tropical:)  Revenue arising from the increase of land: because it is an augmentation.

(K.) Hence it is said, in a trad. of I'Ab, respecting the expiation of an oath, لِكُلِّ مِسْكِينٍ مُدٌّ مِنْ حِنْطَةٍ رَيْعُهُ إِدَامُهُ [To every poor man, a mudd of wheat: the redundance, or redundant part or portion, thereof shall be for its seasoning]: i. e., it is not necessary for the person to give, with the mudd, seasoning; but the redundance that shall arise, of the flour, or meal, of the mudd [of wheat], when he shall have ground it, therewith shall the seasoning be bought.

Hence also, the trad. of 'Omar, اِمْلِكُوا العَجِينَ فَإِنَّهُ أَحَدُ الرَّيْعَيْنِ (assumed tropical:)  Knead ye well, or thoroughly, or soundly, the dough; for this action is one of the رَيْعَانِ [here meaning the two causes of redundance; the other cause being the grinding].

(A, TA.) b5:  See also رِيعٌ. b6:  Also, (K,) and ↓ رَيْعَانٌ, [which latter is the more common in this sense,] (S, K,) (tropical:)  The first (S, K) and most excel-lent (K) part of anything: (S, K:) said in the B to be a metaphorical application from رَيْعٌ as signifying a high, or an elevated, place.

[a phrase not to be mistaken for كَمْ رَيْعُ أَرْضِكَ, in which the meaning is “ increase: ”] (Az, TA:) or any [road such as is termed] فَجّ: (K:) or (so accord. to the Msb and K, but in the S “ and ”) a road (S, Msb, K) of any kind, (K, TA,) to which some add, whether travelled or not: (TA: [see an ex. in the first paragraph of art. سمت:]) or a road opening so as to form a gap in a mountain; (Zj, K;) or, as in some copies of the K, from a mountain; but the former is what is termed فَجٌّ, before mentioned: (TA:) or a mountain; (S, Msb;) so accord. to 'Omárah: (S:) or, as in some copies of the S, a small mountain: (TA:) or signifying also a high mountain: (O, K:) n. of un. with ة [i. e. ↓ رِيعَةٌ, as it is written in the S; and ↓ رَيْعَةٌ also, as implied in the K]: (S, K: [in the former immediately following the signification of “ mountain; ” and in the latter, so following that of “ high mountain; ” whence it seems that رِيعٌ and رَيْعٌ are sometimes used, at least in one sense, as coll. gen. ns.:]) pl. [of mult.] رِيَاعٌ, (S, TA,) which is extr., (TA,) and رُيُوعٌ, and [of pauc.] أَرْيَاعٌ: (TA:) but AO says, contr. to J, that ↓ رِيعَةٌ is pl. of رِيعٌ: (IB, TA:) or رِيعٌ and رَيْعٌ signify the channel of the torrent of a valley from any, or every, high, or elevated, place.
