√ǦBY 
vb., II 
to prostrate o.s. (in prayer) – WehrCowan1976
 
▪ Ultimately, all values in the root ǦBY may be derived from a basic *‘to gather, collect, amass, coagulate, etc.’, featuring in several extensions from ↗*ǦB- (cf., e.g., also ↗√ǦBʔ).
▪ But how exactly ‘to prostrate o.s.’ is dependent on *‘to collect’ will need further investigation. According to Lane ii 1865, some Class lexicographers give the meaning more specifically as ‘to bend down, lower one’s body (in prayer), placing one’s hands upon one’s knees’ etc., explain these body movements as a »bringing-together of the limbs«.
