3 هُوَ يُشَاحُّنِى بِكَذَا ذ [He is niggardly, tenacious, &c., as above, with me, of such a thing]. (A.) [The inf. n.] مُشَاحَّةٌ [in the CK erroneously written مَشاحَّة] is syn. with ضِنَّةٌ: (K, TA:) hence the saying, لَا مُشَاحَّةَ فِى الاِصْطِلَاحِ [There shall be no acting in a niggardly manner, of one with another, in the making of peace, one with another]. (TA.) And one says, فُلَانٌ يُشَاحُّ عَلَى فُلَانٍ Such a one is tenacious of such a one; syn. يَضَنُّ بِهِ. (S, L.)
