مَأْرُوشٌ ذ Scratched with the nails, or lacerated, little or much, so as to bleed or not. Ru-beh says, “ فَقُلْ لِذَاكَ المُزْعَجِ المَحْنُوشِ
أَصْبِحٌ فَمَا مِنْ بَشَرٍ مَأْرُوشِ
” Then say thou to that man who is disquieted by envy, and as though he were stung, Act thou gently, for [there is no scarf-skin scratched; meaning,] my honour is uninjured, having in it no defect nor scratch. (L, * TA.)
