muḍāriʿـَيَفْعَلُmaṣdarطَرْحٌ طَرَحٌ

Core sense — he cast it away; he removed it far away; he became evil in dispositiongenerated

1.1figurative · مجازhe cast it, threw it, or flung it away—طَرَحَ بِهِ

The second construction is allowable because a verb that means the same as another may take the same construction, and طَرَحَ means the same as a verb that is transitive by means of ب, as will be shown below.

Particularly of a thing of no account; see طِرْحٌ.

Synonymous with رَمَاهُ, or رَمَى بِهِ, and أَلْقَاهُ مِنْ يَدِهِ [from his hand].

he threw the pillow, or cushion, to him—طَرَحَ لَهُ الوِسَادَةَ

Synonymous with أَلْقَاهُ.

I threw the [garment called] ردآء on my shoulder—طَرَحْتُ الرِّدَآءَ عَلَى عَاتِقِى

Synonymous with أَلْقَيْتُهُ.

he put, or proposed, (literally threw,) the question to him—طَرَحَ عَلَيْهِ المَسْأَلَةَ

ISd thought this post-classical.

In post-classical language طَرحٌ also means making a throw in the game of backgammon and the like, and making a move in chess and other games.

1.1.1figurative · مجاز — inferredhe removed it, placed it at a distance, cast it off or rejected it—طَرَحَهُ

Also طَرَحَ بِهِ.

The same is expressed by اِطَّرَحَهُ [see form 8 in art. ضرح] and by طرّحهُ, maṣdar تَطْرِيحٌ.

[Removal, or distance, or the place to which he journeyed,] rendered such a one [utterly] remote—طَرَحَتِ النَّوَى بِفُلَانٍ كُلَّ مَطْرَحٍ

Or this last means he cast it, threw it, or flung it away much, or frequently.

Here مَطْرَح is a maṣdar.

[Time, or fortune,] removed him utterly from his family and kindred—طَرَحَ بِهِ الدَّهْرُ كُلَّ مَطْرَحٍ

[What has driven you to these regions?]—مَا طَرَحَكَ إِلَى هٰذِهِ البِلَادِ

[Cast from you, to them, their covenant; that is, reject it, or renounce it, to them]—اِطْرَحْ إِلَيْهِمْ عَهْدَهُمْ

[Dismiss this discourse]—اِطَّرِحْ هٰذَا الحَدِيثَ

leave alone, or abstain from, thanking me and blaming me—اِطَّرِحْ شُكْرِى وَلَوْمِى

on this sense See the ism mafʿūl of the passive, below.
