3 عاند ذ , inf. n. عِنَادٌ [and مُعَانَدَةٌ], He acted with opposition, disobedience, or rebellion. (Msb.) ― -b2- See also 1. -A2- عاندهُ, (L,) inf. n. مُعَانَدَةٌ, (K,) He separated himself from him; (L, * K;) he went, or retired, to a distance, or to a place apart, from him. (L, K. [See also 1, first and second sentences.]) ― -b2- And عاندهُ, (T, S, O, L, Msb,) inf. n. مُعَانَدَةٌ (T, S, L, Msb, K) and عِنَادٌ, (T, S, L, K,) He opposed him, disagreeing with him, or doing the contrary of what he (the other) did; (T, S, O, L, Msb, K;) as also ↓ اعندهُ ; (O, L, K;) syn. عَارَضَهُ; (S, O, Msb, all in explanation of the former; [but it should be observed that عارضه bears the signification expressed above and also that given in the sentence next following;]) or عَارَضَهُ بِالخِلَافِ; (O in explanation of the latter, and Msb in explanation of the former, as on the authority of Az [in the T], and K in explanation of both;) or خَالَفَهُ: (MA in explanation of the former:) [this is the sense in which the former is most commonly known: or as meaning he contended with him in an altercation; or did so vehemently, or obstinately: (see 6:)] the author of the T, however, says, the common people expl. يُعَانِدُهُ as meaning he does the contrary of what he [another] does; but this I know not [as occurring in the genuine language of the Arabs], nor do I admit it as of established authority. (TA.) ― -b3- And, sometimes, He imitated him, doing the like of what he (the other) did; (T, L, Msb;) [and] so ↓ اعندهُ ; (O, L, K;) thus having two contr. significations; (K;) syn. عَارَضَهُ [respecting which see the sentence next preceding]; (S, O, Msb, all in explanation of the former;) or عَارَضَهُ بِالِوفَاقِ; (O and K in explanation of the latter;) and بَارَاهُ; (T and TA in explanation of the former;) عِنَادٌ sometimes signifying مُعَارَضَةٌ بِغَيْرِ خِلَافٍ, as is said by As, who derives it from عَنَدُ الحُبَارَى, making عَنَد in this phrase a subst. from عاند الحُبَارَى فَرْخَهُ The bustard imitated the actions of his young one in flying, on the first occasion of its rising, as though he would teach it to fly: and عاند البَعِيرُ خِطَامَهُ means The camel conformed to [and perhaps it may also mean resisted] the motion of his halter. (L.) ― -b4- عاندهُ, (O,) inf. n. مُعَانَدَةٌ, (K,) also signifies He kept, or clave, to him, or it: (O, K:) the contr. of the first signification assigned to it above. (TA.) ― -b5- And مُعَانَدَةٌ means also The disputing with another without knowledge of the truth or falsity of what he himself says and also of what his opponent says. (Kull p. 342.)
