- يقولون عَثْنَنَ فلانٌ جَعَلَ من العِمَامة تحت حَنَكِهِ ويسمّونها العُثْنُون وبعضعم يسمّيها مَقْبِضَ سَطْلٍ. والصّواب تَلَحَّاهَا. يقال تَلَحَّى فلانٌ العِمامةَ إّذا جعلها تحت لَحْيِهِ. وفي الحديث أنّ النّبيّ ﷺ «أمر بالتَّلَحِّي ونَهَى عن الاقْتِعَاطِ». ويقال أيْضاً حَنّكَ. والاقتعاط أن تَلُوثَ العِمامةَ على رَأْسِكَ دون أن تجعلها تحت حنكك. يقال منه اقتعط يقتعط وهو المنهيّ عنه.
- They say that somebody ʕaṯnana – he applied his turban under the jaw, and they call the latter ʕuṯnūn and a part of them bucket handle. The correct is talaḥḥāhā. It is said that somebody talaḥḥā when he applied it under his jawbone. And in the Ḥadīṯ that the Prophet (PBUH) “ordered talaḥḥī and ended with iqtiʕaṭ.” One also says ḥannaka. And iqtiʕaṭ that you bind the turban on the head without applying it under the jaw.
