maṣdarسَدْوٌ إِسْدَآءٌ

Core sense — he set the warp of a garment; he did him a benefit; he left him alonegenerated

4.1he set, or disposed, the warp of the garment, or piece of clothاستاهُ

Maṣdar تَسْدِيَةٌ and تسدّاهُ; the warp is السَّدَى or سَدًى.

he made a warp in the garment, or piece of clothسدّاهُ

Or سدّاهُ means he did so for another, and تسدّاهُ he did so for himself.

Golius explains سدّى as also meaning “Oblivit telam viscosiore aquâ, ut cui mistus fuerit panis, quod fit roboris conciliandi ergo,” on the authority of the KL; in my copy of the KL I find only its maṣdar, تَسْدِيَةٌ, explained as the weaver's making a warp in a garment, or piece of cloth. Freytag adds, as a meaning assigned to the same verb by Jac. Schultens, “Cirris s. fimbriis ornavit vestem.”

4.1.1figurative · مجاز — inferredhe begins things, or affairs, and completes themهُوَ يُسَدِّى الأُمُورَ وَيُنِيرُهَا

Or يُسْدِى; mentioned in the A in the article نير.

complete what you have begun of beneficenceأَلْحِمْ مَا أَسْدَيْتَ

Mentioned in the article لحم.

4.1.2figurative · مجازhe wove together, or composed, or forged, a discourse between themاسدى بَيْنَهُمْ حَدِيثًا

Same as نَسَجَهُ.

4.1.3figurative · مجاز — inferredhe brought about a rectification of affairs, an agreement, or a reconciliation, between the twoاسدى بَيْنَهُمَا

Same as أَصْلَحَ.

4.1.4figurative · مجاز — inferredhe did a benefit to himاسدى إِلَيْهِ
he did to him, or conferred upon him, a benefit, favour, or the likeسدّى

Maṣdar تَسْدِيَةٌ, or اسدى إِلَيْهِ سَدًى and سدّاهُ عَلَيْهِ — in the latter case عليه, not اليه — or اسدى إِلَيْهِ مَعْزُوفًا.

Apparently from اسدى الثَّوْبَ and سدّاهُ, and so mentioned in the M in the article سدى; or it is from سدى, or rather سَدَا, meaning “he (a camel) put his fore legs forward in going along”; for one of whom it is said أَسْدَاكَ خَيْرًا (he did you good, like أَسْدَى إِلَيْكَ خَيْرًا) is as though he stretched out his arm, or hand, to you with it, advancing.

he did a benefitاسدى نِعْمَةً

That is, اِصْطَنْع.

4.1.5figurative · مجاز — inferredI sought a thing, and I attained it, or obtained itطَلَبْتُ أَمْرًا فَأَسْدَيْتُهُ

As though meaning I stretched out my hand to it and reached it. If you do not attain it, you say أَعْمَسْتُهُ.

attaining quicklyإِسْدَآءٌ

So in the KL, where it is explained by the words زود دريافتن; for these Golius seems to have found in his copy زود رفتن, since he assigns to اسدى, on the authority of the KL, the meaning cito incessit.

4.2he left, let alone, or neglected, him, or itاسداهُ
I left my camels to pasture by themselvesأَسْدَيْتُ إِبِلِى

He left him to himself, uncontrolled, neither commanded nor forbidden.

(Idem p. 759.) You say also, طَلَبْتُ أَمْرًا فَأَسْدَيْتُهُ i. e. [I sought a thing, and] I attained it, or obtained it: [as though meaning I stretched forth my hand to it and reached it:] if you do not attain it, or obtain it, you say, أَعْمَسْتُهُ : (S:) or إِسْدَآءٌ signifies the attaining quickly. (KL.

Nounسَدًى7 senses · 3 main

Core sense — the warp of a cloth; night-dew; a benefit, or liberalitygenerated

1the warp of a garment, or piece of clothأَسْدِىٌّ

Of a garment, or piece of cloth: the warp, the opposite of لُحْمَةٌ, that is, the threads extended lengthwise in the weaving; and it is said to mean the lower, or lowest, part of it — a strange explanation, which I do not find elsewhere.

It is said to be from السَّدْوُ, maṣdar of سَدَا, meaning “the stretching out of the arm, hand, or fore leg towards a thing”; but it is mentioned in the M as belonging to the article سدى, and its dual, mentioned below, requires that it should be.

More commonly written أُسْدِىٌّ.

a warp, or a sort of warpسَدَاةٌ

Or this is the ism waḥda of سَدًى, with a more special meaning; or the لُحْمَةٌ may be added to make the word match its opposite سَدًى, with which it is often coupled.

The dual of سَدًى is سَدَيَانِ, and the plural is أَسْدِيَةٌ or أَسْدَآءٌ.

you are neither a woof nor a warpمَا أَنْتَ بِلُحْمَةٍ وَلَا سَدَاةٍ

Said of one who neither harms nor benefits. See also سَتًى.

1.1figurative · مجاز

Hence, as being likened to the warp: honey in its comb; synonymous with شُهْدٌ or شَهْدٌ.

1.2figurative · مجاز

A benefit, benefaction, favour, or the like.

1.3

The night-dew, by which seed-produce lives; or, as some say, سَدًى and نَدًى are synonymous, both applied to dew in general.

The plural is أَسْدَآءٌ.

1.4figurative · مجاز

Liberality, bounty, munificence, or generosity, as being likened to dew; and so نَدًى. Mentioned in the articles ندو and ندى.

See an example in a verse cited under رِقْبَةٌ.

2

Green dates, with their شَمَارِيخ [or fruit-stalks]; also سَدَآءٌ, of the dialect of El-Yemen.

The ism waḥda is سَدَاةٌ and سَدَآءَةٌ, on the authority of AA, and of Sh also, who says that they belong to the dialect of El-Medeeneh.
