4 اجذى ذ : see 1, first sentence. ― -b2- Also He (a young camel) bore fat in his hump. (Ks, S, K.) El-Khansà says, “ يُجْذِينَ نَيًّا وَلَا يجْذِينَ قِرْدَانَا
” They bear fat [in their humps], and have not ticks clinging to them. (IB, TA.) -A2- He lifted a stone, (AA, S, TA,) in order that he might know thereby his strength. (TA.) One says, ↓ هُمْ يُجْذُونَ حَجَرًا وَيَتَجَاذَوْنَهُ [They lift a stone, in order to prove their strength, and vie, one with another, in lifting it, for that purpose]. (TA.) ↓ تَجَاذٍ , in the lifting of a stone, is like تَجَاث: (S, TA:) تَجَاذَوْا meaning تَرَابَعُوا لِيَرْفَعُوهُ [They vied, one with another, to lift the stone, for trial of strength]. (TA.) ― -b2- اجذى طَرْفَهُ [in the CK, erroneously, طَرَفَهُ,] He raised his eye, or sight, and cast it before him. (K, TA.)
