غَضَّ طَرْفَهُ , (S, A, Msb, K,) aor. يَغُضُّ, (Msb, *
TA,) [and يَغْضُضْ may be used, in the dial. of
El-Hijáz, instead of its contracted form يَغُضَّ,]
imp. غُضَّ, (S, A,) in the dial. of Nejd, (S,) and
اُغْضُضْ, in the dial. of El-Hijáz, (S,) inf. n. غَضٌّ
(Msb, K) and غِضَاضٌ, with kesr, (A, K,) and
غَضَاضٌ and غَضَاضَةٌ, with fet-h, (K,) He lowered
his eye, or eyes; (S, A, Msb, K;) as also غَضَّ
مِنْ طَرْفِهِ; (Msb;) [the من being redundant,
accord. to some; but see what is said on this
point below:] and he contracted his eye, or eyes;
syn. كَسَرَهُ; [so as to wrinkle the lids;] or he
blinked; i. e. he contracted his eyelids, or drew
them near together, and looked: [this signification is very common:] and he contracted (كَسَرَ)
his eye, or eyes, and looked towards the ground,
not opening his eye [or eyes]: and sometimes it
indicates a state of abasement. (TA.) Also غَضَّ
alone, inf. n. غَضَاضَةٌ, He contracted his eyelids;
like أَغْضَى: he looked languishingly. (TA.) It
is said in the Kur [xxiv. 30], قُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا
مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ, in which some of the grammarians
hold من to be redundant; but the meaning is
obvious, i. e. [Say thou to the believers] that they
shall abridge their look, or view, from what is
prohibited to them: (Sgh:) or that they shall
restrain somewhat of their look, or view. (TA.)
―
2-b2- [And hence,] (assumed tropical:) He bore with forgiveness and
silence what was disagreeable, or hateful, or evil.
(S, A, K.) ―
2-b3- غَضَّ صَوْتَهُ, (Msb,) or مِنْ صَوْتِهِ,
(S, TA,) or both, (Msb,) in like manner signifies
He lowered his voice. (S, Msb.) It is said in the
Kur [xxxi. 18], وَٱغْضُضْ مِنْ صَوْتِكَ, (S, A,) i. e.
And lower thy voice: or diminish the loudness of
thy voice. (TA.) ―
2-b4- غَضَّ مِنْ لِجَامِ فَرَسِهِ He
lowered the rein of his horse, in order to lessen his
sharpness of temper. (A, TA. *) ―
2-b5- غَضَّ مِنْهُ, (S,
Msb, K,) aor. يَغُضُّ, (S, TA,) inf. n. غَضٌّ (Msb,
TA) and غَضَاضَةٌ, (Msb,) He lowered and lessened
his estimation, dignity, or rank: (S, K, TA:) or
he detracted from his reputation; or attributed
or imputed to him, charged him with, or accused
him of, a vice, fault, or the like: (Msb:) and,
inf. n. غَضَاضَةٌ, he disdained it, or scorned it; as
also اغتضّ ↓ مِنْهُ. ('Alee Ibn-Hamzeh, TA.) ―
2-b6-
Also غَضَّهُ, (K,) aor. as above, inf. n. غَضٌّ, (TA,)
He lessened it, diminished it, or made it defective
or deficient; (K, TA;) and so ↓ غَضْغَضَهُ, (K,)
inf. n. غَصْغَضَةٌ. (TA.) You say غَضَضْتُ السِّقَآءَ
I lessened, diminished, or made defective or deficient, [the contents of] the skin. (Msb.) And
غَضْغَضْتُ ↓ المَآءَ I lessened, &c., the water. (S.)
And ↓ فُلَانٌ بَحْرٌ لَا يُغَضْغَضُ Such a one is a sea,
or great river, that will not be lessened, &c.: (S:)
or that will not become exhausted. (Har p. 418.)
[See also R. Q. 1 below, and R. Q. 2.] And
[you make the former verb doubly trans., saying,]
مَا غَضَضْتُكَ شَيْئًا I have not abridged thee, deprived
thee, or defrauded thee, of anything. (TA.) And
لَا أَغُضُّكَ دِرْهَمًا I will not abridge thee, deprive thee,
or defraud thee, of a dirhem. (TA.) You also
say, غَضَّ مِنَ الشَّعَرِ He shortened the hair. (M in
art. قصر.) And [in like manner] one says, غَضَّ
مِنْ رَأْسِهِ, i. q. طَمَّ رَأْسَهُ. (K voce طَمَّ, q. v.) ―
2-b7-
Also He broke it (i. e. a branch, or stick, or the
like,) but did not break it thoroughly; (L, K,
TA;) and so ↓ غضّضهُ. (L, TA.) ―
2-b8- And غَضَضْتُهُ
also signifies I withheld, restrained, or prevented,
it; whatever it were. (S.) [Hence the phrase in
the Kur xxiv, 30, accord. to an explanation given
above.] You say غَضَّ العَذْلَ, or المَلَامَةَ, aor. as
above, inf. n. غَصٌّ, He withheld blame. (Lth.)
And you say to a rider, in asking him to stop a
little where you are, غُضَّ سَاعَةً, (TA,) and اُغْضُضْ
لِى سَاعَةً, (A, TA,) i. e. Restrain for me thy
beast, and stop, or pause, where I am, a while.
(A, TA.) ＝
1-A2- غَضَّ, [first pers. غَضَضْتُ,] aor. يَغِضُّ;
(Msb;) or the first pers. is غَضِضْتُ and غَضَضْتُ,
(S, K,) and the aor. of each is يَغَضُّ; (K;) or,
accord. to the T, some say غَضِضْتَ, aor. تَغَضُّ,
and some say غَضَضْتَ, aor. تَغَضُّ: (IB, TA;)
but the latter of these requires consideration;
(TA;) inf. n. غُضُوضَةٌ (IAar, S, K) and غَضَاضَةٌ;
(S, K;) or the former only, accord to Alee Ibn-
Hamzeh; but the saying بَضَاضَةٌ and بُضُوضَةٌ, to
denote the quality of that which is termed بَضٌّ,
strengthens what J says [in the S] with respect
to غَضَاضَةٌ; (IB;) It (a thing) was, or became,
fresh, juicy, sappy, moist, not flaccid. (S, Msb:)
or flourishing and fresh; or luxuriant: (IAar:)
or beautiful and bright: (K:) and غَضَّتْ, aor.
تَغِضُّ and تَغَضُّ, inf. n. غَضَاضَةٌ and غُضُوضَةٌ, said
of a woman, (tropical:) she was, or became, fine-skinned, or
thin-skinned, so that the blood appeared [through
the skin]. (Lh, TA.)
