(S.) It is said in a trad. of En-Nakha'ee, التَّكْبِيرُ جَزْمٌ والتَّسْلِيمُ جَزْمٌ, meaning that neither should be prolonged in utterance, and that the last letter in each should be without a case-ending, i.e., be quiescent; so that one should not say [in prayer] اَللّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ [nor السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَرَحْمَةُ ا@للّٰهِ, but أَكْبَرْ in the former instance, and ا@للّٰهْ in the latter]: or, accord. to Z, that one should not exceed the due bounds in the pronunciation of the hemzeh and the medd: (TA:) or that one should abstain from giving fulness and depth to the sound of the vowel, and should elide it entirely in the places of pausing, and avoid excess in the pronunciation of the hemzeh and the medd.

(IAar, TA.) -A3- Also جَزَمَ (S, K,) inf. n. as above, (TA,) He filled a skin; (S, K;) and so ↓جزّم, (S, *K,) inf. n. تَجْزِيمٌ (S.) ― -b2- جَزَمَتِ الإِِبِلُ, (Fr, K,) inf. n. as above, (Fr, TA,) The camels satisfied their thirst [as though they filled themselves] with water.
