(Ṣ.) Also, both verbs, (the former accord. to the Ṣ and M, and↓ the latter likewise accord. to the M,) † He (a man) was unable to look aside, (Ṣ, M,) by reason of disease. (Ṣ.)

And أَصْيَدَ بَعِيرَهُ He (God) caused his camel to have the disease termed صَيَد. (M.)

صَادٌ A certain vein (M, Ḳ) between the eyes of a camel, (Ḳ,) or between the eye and the nose; (M;) whence the disease termed صَيَد: pl. أَصْيَادٌ and pl. pl. أَصَايِدُ [in the CK أَصائِدُ]. (Ḳ.)
