Also It (an affair) was, or became, hard, difficult, or strait; (O, Ḳ,* TA;) andاعوز↓ it (a thing) was, or became, difficult. (IḲṭṭ.)
And He (a man) was, or became, poor, needy, or indigent; (Ṣ, A, O, Ḳ;) as alsoاعوز↓, (Ṣ, O, Mṣb, Ḳ,) inf. n. إِعْوَازٌ: (Ṣ, Mṣb;:) or the latter signifies he was, or became, poor so as to possess nothing; (AZ, Mṣb;) or he became in want, and in an unsound condition; (A;) as alsoاعوزّ↓, (A, TA,) inf. n. اِعْوِزَازٌ; (TA;) or in an evil condition. (TA.)
عَازَ الشَّىْءَ, aor. يَعُوزُ, [inf. n. عَوْزٌ,] He wanted, needed, or required, the thing, and found it not. (Mṣb.) [And عَازَهُ الشَّىْءُ, and أَعْوَزَهُ, virtually signify the same.] See 4.

(O, TA.)
The thing was little, or scarce, or scanty, to him, or in his estimation, and needful to him. (Mgh, TA.)
اعوزهُ الأَمْرُ The affair was hard, or difficult, to him. (A, TA.) So in the saying, مَسْأَلَةٌ يَخْتَلِفُ فِيهَا كِبَارُ الصَّحَابَةِ يُعْوِزُ فِقْهُهَا [A question respecting which the great men of the Companions differ;] the knowledge whereof is difficult. (Mgh.)

عَوَزٌ inf. n. of عَوِزَ [q. v.] (Ṣ, O, Mṣb.)

(TA.) You say, أَصَابَهُ عَوَزٌ Want, and poverty, befell him. (A.) And hence the saying, سِدَادٌ مِنْ عَوَزٍ, (A, Mgh, TA,) a well-known prov., expl. in art. سد. (TA.)
عَوِزٌ
عَوِزٌ Poor; needy; indigent: (Ḳ, in this art. and in art. لوز:) andمُعْوِزٌ↓ signifies the same; (Ṣ, TA;) possessing little; and in an evil condition, as alsoمِعْوَزٌ↓, (O, TA,) which latter is anomalous.
