Classical Arabic - English Dictionary

غَرِضَ, aor. ـَ {يَغْرَضُ}, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) inf. n. غَرَضٌ, (Ṣ, A, Ḳ,) He was vexed, or disquieted by grief, and by distress of mind; he was grieved, and distressed in mind: he was disgusted; he turned away with disgust. (Ṣ, A, Ḳ.) You say, غَرِضَ مِنْهُ He was vexed by, or at, him, or it, and disquieted by grief, and by distress of mind; he was grieved, and distressed in mind, by him, or it: (Mgh in art. غرض, and TA:) he was disgusted with it, or at it; he turned away from it with disgust: (Mgh:) and he feared him, or it. (Ibn-ʼAbbád, Ḳ, TḲ: but the first and second mention only the inf. n. of the verb in this last sense.) And غَرِضَ بِالمُقَامِ, aor. and inf. n. as above, [He was vexed,, &c., by continuance, stay, residence, or abode, in a place: he was disgusted with it, or at it.] (Ṣ.) And إِذَا فَاتَهُ الغَرَضُ فَتَّهُ الغَرَضُ i. e. الضَّجَرُ [When the object of aim, or endeavour, escapes him, so that he cannot attain it, vexation, or disquietude by grief, and by distress of mind, or disgust, crushes him]. (A, TA.)

And hence, (A,) aor. as above, (Ḳ,) and so the inf. n., (A, TA,) He yearned, or longed: (Ṣ, A, Ḳ:) or he yearned, or longed, vehemently, or intensely: (TA:) إِلَيْهِ for him, or it: (Ṣ:) or إِلَى لِقَائِهِ for meeting with him: the verb in this sense being made trans. by means of الى because it imports the meaning of اِشْتَاقَ and حَنَّ [which are made trans. by the same means]: (A, TA:) [for] accord. to Akh, غَرِضْتُ إِلَيْهِ signifies غَرِضْتُ مِنْ هٰؤُلآءِ إِلَيْهِ [I turned with vexation, or disgust, from these, to him, or it]; because the Arabs connect the verb [with its objective complement] by means of all these particles [mentioned above; namely, ب and من and الى]. (Ṣ.) Mbr reckons غَرَضٌ, as meaning both “being disgusted” and “yearning” or “longing,” among words having contrary significations; and so does Ibn-Es-Seed; (MF;) and in like manner, IḲṭṭ. (TA.) [Perhaps these derive the latter meaning from غَرَضٌ signifying “a butt,” or “an object of aim,”, &c.]

غَرَضَ عَنْهُ, (TA,) [in the TḲ غَرَضَهُ,] inf. n. غَرْضٌ, (Ibn-ʼAbbád, Ḳ,) He (a man, TA) refrained, forbore, abstained, or desisted, from him, or it; left, relinquished, or forsook, him, or it. (Ibn-ʼAbbád,* Ḳ,* TA.)

غَرُضَ, aor. ـُ {يَغْرُضُ}, inf. n. غِرَضٌ, It (a thing) was fresh, juicy, moist, not flaccid. (Ṣ, Ḳ.)

غَرَضَ الشَّىْءَ, aor. ـِ {يَغْرِضُ}, (Ḳ,) inf. n. غَرْضٌ; (TA;) andغرّضهُ↓, (Ḳ,) inf. n. تَغْرِيضٌ; (TA;) He plucked the thing while it was fresh, juicy, moist, or not flaccid: or he took it (أَخَذَهُ, in some copies of the Ḳ جَذَّهُ, which is a mistake, TA) while it was so. (Ḳ.)

† He did the thing hastily, or hurriedly, before its time; syn. أَعْجَلَهُ عَنْ وَقْتِهِ. (Ibn-ʼAbbád, O, TṢ, Ḳ.*)

غَرَضَ السَّخْلَ, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) aor. and inf. n. as above; (TA;) andغرّضها↓; (Ḳ;) † He weaned the lambs, or kids, before their time. (ISk, Ṣ, Ḳ.)

غَرَضَتْ سِقَآءَهَا, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) aor. and inf. n. as above, (Ṣ,) † She (a woman, Ṣ) churned, or agitated, the contents of her milk-skin, and when its butter had formed in little clots but had not collected together, she poured out the milk, and gave it to people to drink. (ISk, Ṣ, Ḳ.*)

غَرَضْتُ لَهُ غَرِيضًا ‡ I gave him to drink fresh milk. (TA.)

غَرَضْتُ لِلضَّيْفِ غَرِيضًا ‡ I fed the guests with food that had not been kept through the night: so in the A: but in the Ḳ,أَغْرَضَ↓ لَهُمْ غَرِيضًا ‡ he kneaded for them fresh dough, and did not feed them with food that had been kept through the night. (TA.)

غَرَضَهُ, aor. ـِ {يَغْرِضُ}, [inf. n. غَرْضٌ,] also signifies He filled it, namely, a vessel, (Ṣ, Ḳ,) and a skin, and a wateringtrough; (TA;) and soاغرضهُ↓. (Ḳ.)

And He stopped short of filling it completely. (Ṣ, Ḳ. [See also 2.]) Thus it has two contr. significations. (Ṣ, Ḳ.) A rájiz says,

* لَقَدْ فَدَى أَعْنَاقَهُنَّ المَحْضُ *

* وَالدَّأْظُ حَتَّى مَا لَهُنَّ غَرْضُ *

(Ṣ, TA,) i. e. Verily the محض and the دأظ [the pure milk and the fatness and fulness so that there is no deficiency in their skins] have ransomed them from being slaughtered and sold. (TA.) [But see غَرْضٌ below.]

Also, aor. ـِ {يَغْرِضُ}, inf. n. غَرْضٌ, He broke it (i. e. a thing) without separating it. (TA.)

غَرَضَ البَعِيرَ, (Ṣ,) or النَّاقَةَ, (Ḳ,) [aor. ـِ {يَغْرِضُ}, as appears from the word مَغْرِضٌ, for otherwise, by rule, it would be مَغْرَضٌ,] inf. n. غَرْضٌ, (Ḳ,) He bound the غَرْض upon the camel; (Ṣ;) as alsoاغْتِرضهُ↓; (TA;) or he bound the she-camel with the غُرْضَة, (Ḳ,) or غَرْض; (TA;) as alsoأَغْرَضَهَا↓; (Ḳ;) and in like manner, غَرَضَ البَغِيرَ بِالغَرْضِ. (TA.)

غرّض, inf. n. تَغْرِيضٌ, He ate fresh flesh-meat. (Ḳ.)

See also غَرَضَ, in two places.

One says also, غَرِّضْ فِى سِقَائَكَ Fill not thy skin [completely; leave a portion unfilled in thy skin]. (Ṣ.)

And فُلَانٌ بَحْرٌ لَا يُغَرَّضُ i. e. [Such a one is a sea] that will not become exhausted. (Ṣ, A, TA.)

And غرّض signifies also تَفَكَّهَ, (Ḳ, TA.) [meaning He affected jesting, or joking, for it is] said in the I. to be from الفُكَاهَةُ signifying المُزَاحُ. (TA.)

غارض إِبِلَهُ ‡ He brought his camels to the watering-place early in the morning; in the first part of the day. (A, O, Ḳ.)

اغرضهُ He made him to be vexed, or disquieted by grief, and by distress of mind; to be grieved, and distressed in mind: he made him to be disgusted; to turn away with disgust. (Ṣ.)

اغرض النَّاقَةَ: see 1, last sentence.

اغرض He (a man) hit, or attained, the غَرَض [i. e. the butt, or object of aim,, &c.]. (IḲṭṭ.)

تغرّض, (Ḳ, TA,) thus in the O, on the authority of Ibn-ʼAbbád; but accord. to the Tekmileh, انغرض↓; (TA;) said of a branch, It broke without breaking in pieces: (Ḳ, TA:) or, accord. to the L, the latter signifies It bent and broke without becoming separated. (TA.)

اِغْتَرَضَ: (so in a copy of the A: [and if this be correct, the primary signification seems to be It (a thing) was plucked, or taken, while it was fresh, juicy, moist, or not flaccid: quasi-pass. of غَرَضَ in the first of the senses assigned to it as a trans. v. above:]) or اُغْتَرِضَ: (so in the JK and TA: [and if this be correct, it is app. formed by transposition from اُغْتُضِرَ:]) ‡ He died in his fresh state; (JK;) [i. e.] he died a youth, or a young man: [the latter reading seems to be the right, for it is said to be] similar to اُحْتُضِرَ [evidently a mistranscription for اُخْتُضِرَ]. (A, TA.)

اغترض الشَّىْءَ He made the thing his غَرَض [i. e. butt, or object of aim,, &c.]. (TA.)

(Ṣ, Ḳ.) [Hence the saying of Moḥammad,] غُرْض shall not be bound [upon camels by pilgrims] except to three mosques; the sacred mosque [of Mekkeh], and my mosque [of El-Medeeneh], and the mosque [El-Aksà] of Beytel-Makdis [or Jerusalem].

It is said in a trad., لَا تَتَّخِذُوا شَيْئًا فِيهِ الرَّوحُ غَرَضًا [Ye shall not take a thing in which is the vital principle as a butt]. (TA.) And hence one says, النَّاسُ أَغْرَاضُ المَنِيَّةِ † [Mea are the butts of destiny, or of death]: and جَعَلْتَنِى غَرَضًا لِشَتْمِكَ † [Thou madest me, or hast made me, a butt for thy reviling]. (TA.)

And hence, ‡ An object of aim or endeavour or pursuit, of desire or wish, or of intention or purpose: (Mṣb:) a scope; or any end which one endeavours, or seeks, or intends, or purposes, to attain: (B:) an object of want, and of desire: (TA:) the advantage, or good, which one seeks, or endeavours, or purposes, to attain, or obtain, from a thing: so much used in this tropical sense as to be, in this sense, conventionally regarded as proper. (MF.) You say, غَرَضُهُ كَذَا ‡ His object of aim or endeavour or pursuit,, &c., is such a thing: (Mṣb:) or his object of want, and of desire, is such a thing (TA.)
