Etymology 2

From the root ن و ر (n-w-r) whence نَار (nār, “fire”), because quicklime, calcium oxide, also known as burnt lime, and حِجَارَة مَشْوِيَّة (ḥijāra mašwiyya, literally “burnt stones”), is produced by thermolysis of calcium-rich material.

Noun

نُورَة • (nūra) f

1. quick lime, plaster, a substance used for mending, mixed lime-stone and clay and straw used for repairing, parget, plaster applied on the inside and outside walls of a house
   • c. 1200, يحيى بن محمد بن أحمد بن العوام [yaḥyā ibn muḥammad ibn ʔaḥmad ibn al-ʕawwām], edited by José Antonio Banqueri, كتاب الفلاحة [Book on Agriculture], volume 2, Madrid: Imprenta Real, published 1802^IA, Cap. 33, page 601:

     يؤخذ طرخشقون مجفف وعدس ونورة أجزاء سواء ويسحق الجميع وينخل ويعجن بسمن بقري عتيق ثم يوضع منه على فتيلة ويدخل في الناصور نافع وربما نفع وربما نفع منه الكي بالنار.

     One takes dried dandelion and lentils and lime at equal parts and grinds all and sieves and kneads with old cow butter and then one applies from it unto a wick and enters the fistula. It may be successful, however cauterization might prove more effective.
