Nounجُذَاذٌ4 senses · 1 main

Core sense — what is broken off, broken pieces; particles of silver; gold-bearing stonesgenerated

1

This word, and جِذَاذٌ — the first being the more correct — and جَذَاذٌ: nouns from جَذٌّ, the act of breaking.

What is broken off a thing; or what is broken, or cut, in pieces; or broken pieces. So in the Qur'ān 21:59, where the word is read in these three forms.

Some also read جُذُذًا, which is the plural of جَذِيذٌ, and some جُذَذًا, the plural of جُذَّةٌ.

Or the first means fragments of a thing much broken [as a collective generic noun], and the ism waḥda is جُذَاذَةٌ.

[Or] it is an irregular plural of جَذِيذٌ; or it means the same as مَجْذُوذٌ, of which جِذَاذٌ is a dialectal variant, or is the plural of جَذِيذٌ. [See also جَذٌّ.]

Qur’ān 21:58 approximate — somewhere between 21:33 and 21:73 Lane cites “Kur xxi. 59”
Qur’ān 21:58 the verse Lane’s citation points to, and it uses this root
فَجَعَلَهُمْ جُذَٰذًا إِلَّا كَبِيرًا لَّهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ يَرْجِعُونَ

So he broke them to pieces, (all) but the biggest of them, that they might turn (and address themselves) to it.Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Qur’ān (1934)

1.1pieces of silverجُذَاذَاتٌ

Also, the first form: small pieces, or particles, of silver.

Or: cuttings, or clippings, of silver.

1.2stones containing gold, which are brokenجِذَاذٌ

Also: stones containing gold, so called because they are broken; or stones containing gold and the like which are broken.

1.3distinct parties, or portions, of men or thingsجذاذ

Apparently جُذَاذٌ or جِذَاذٌ; or else جِذَذٌ; the same as فِرَقٌ.

Qur’ānic occurrences جُذَٰذ
21:58
فَجَعَلَهُمْ جُذَٰذًا إِلَّا كَبِيرًا لَّهُمْ لَعَلَّهُمْ إِلَيْهِ يَرْجِعُونَ

So he broke them to pieces, (all) but the biggest of them, that they might turn (and address themselves) to it.
