(Sb, TA.) Sakhr-el-Gheí says, “ ذٰلِكَ بَزِّى فَلَنْ أُفَرِّطَهُ
أَخَافُ أَنْ يُنْجِزُوا الَّذِى وَعَدُوا
” That is my weapon, and I will not send it before, remaining behind it: [I fear lest they perform that which they have threatened:] or I will not quit it, nor send it before: or I will not be behind it: (TA:) or I will not neglect it. (ISd, TA.) And Sá'ideh Ibn-Ju-eiyeh says, “ مَعَهُ سِقَآءٌ لَا يُفَرِّطُ حَمْلَهُ
” With him is a skin, the carrying of which he will not leave, nor quit. (S.)

(Ks, S, O.) And فرّط فِى جَنْبِ ا@للّٰهِ He neglected the things of God, and did them not: (TA:) or the command of God. (O, TA.) [See also art. جنب.] And it is said in a trad., لَيْسَ فِى النَّوْمِ تَفْرِيطٌ إِِنَّمَا التَّفْرِيطُ أَنْ لَا يَصْحَى حَتَّى يَدْخُلَ وَقْتُ الأُخْرَى [There is no falling short of one's duty in sleeping: the falling short of one's duty is only the not awaking until the time of the other (prayer) commences]. (TA.) ― -b4- Also He let him alone, or left him, for a while; or granted him a delay, or respite; [and so ↓ فارطهُ ; for] أَطَلْتُ فِرَاطَهُمْ means I long let them alone, or left them, or granted them delay or respite.
