مُضَهَّبٌ ذ Flesh-meat roasted, but not thoroughly cooked: (S, A, O:) accord. to El-Mufaddal, flesh-meat cut in pieces; (O;) and thus in the K; (TA;) but IF says that this is nought, unless it be cut in pieces roasted: (O:) it is at variance with what is said by the leading authorities, for they say that it means flesh-meat roasted upon heated stones: or roasted upon the fire, but not thoroughly cooked: (TA:) or cooked in a fryingpan. (TA in art. عرص.) Imra-el-Keys says, “ نَمُشُّ بِأَعْرَافِ الجِيَادِ أَكُفَّنَا
إِِذَا نَحْنُ قُمْنَا عَنْ شِوَآءٍ مُضَهَّبِ
” [We wipe our hands with the manes of the swift horses when we rise from eating roast meat not thoroughly cooked]. (S, O.)
