muḍāriʿـُيَفْعُلُmaṣdarفَظَاظَةٌ فَظٌّ

Core sense — he was rough, coarse, rude; he pressed out the water of a camel's stomachgenerated

1.1

Second person فَظِظْتَ; maṣdar فَظَاظَةٌ and فَظَظٌ, but the first is the more common, because the doubled letter in the second is hard to pronounce. فِظَاظٌ means the same as these, and so does فَظَاظٌ, but these last two are simple nouns.

He (a man) was, or became, such as is termed فَظٌّ [that is, rough, coarse, rude, and the like, as explained below]; or rough and the like, so as to be feared more than is right.

1.2he let it out, namely the water, by cutting open the stomach [of a camel]—فَظَّةُ

maṣdar فَظٌّ and افتظّهُ.

The water meant is that termed فَظٌّ. Or: he pressed, or squeezed, it out of the stomach and drank it.

he slaughtered a camel, pressed out the water of its stomach, and strained it—افتظّ كَرِشَ بَعِيرٍ

Esh-Sháfi'ee gives this meaning.

he gave his camel to drink, then bound its mouth so that it might not ruminate—افتظّ

Then, when thirst came upon him, he cut open its belly, pressed out the fluid of the feces of its stomach, and drank it.

I pressed out the water of the stomach—أَفْظَظْتُ الكَرِشَ

Nounفَظٌّ2 senses

Core sense — rough, coarse, rude; the water of a camel's stomach, drunk in thirstgenerated

1he is indeed rough, coarse, or the like—إِنَّهُ لَفَظٌّ بَظٌّ

Applied to a man: rough; coarse; rude; unkind; hard; churlish; uncivil; surly; hard to deal with; incompliant; evil in disposition; ill-natured; hard-hearted; hard, or severe; rough, coarse, or the like, so as to be feared more than is right; rough, or coarse, in speech; sour, or austere, in it.

[In the T this is said to come from the same word in the sense that follows next; but according to the M the reverse seems to be the case.] Plural أَفْظَاظٌ.

The second word of this phrase is an imitative sequent; we treat it so because Th, who mentions it, does not explain it. فَظِيظٌ بَظِيظٌ [apparently means the same]. Mentioned in the article بظ.

Lane cites “Bd in iii. 153” — a commentary, not the verse; no modern number is given

Also the water of the stomach [of a camel], which is pressed out and drunk when water is wanting, in the waterless deserts; the water that comes out of the stomach [of a camel], so called because it is a coarse, or bitter, drink.

Esh-Sháfi'ee: it may not be used for religious purification.

Also the urine of horses, drunk when one is thirsty. Plural فُظُوظٌ, used so by Mutemmem Ibn-Nuweyreh.

Qur’ānic occurrences فَظّ

3:159

فَبِمَا رَحْمَةٍ مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ لِنتَ لَهُمْ ۖ وَلَوْ كُنتَ فَظًّا غَلِيظَ ٱلْقَلْبِ لَٱنفَضُّوا۟ مِنْ حَوْلِكَ ۖ فَٱعْفُ عَنْهُمْ وَٱسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ وَشَاوِرْهُمْ فِى ٱلْأَمْرِ ۖ فَإِذَا عَزَمْتَ فَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ يُحِبُّ ٱلْمُتَوَكِّلِينَ

It is part of the Mercy of Allah that thou dost deal gently with them Wert thou severe or harsh-hearted, they would have broken away from about thee: so pass over (Their faults), and ask for (Allah's) forgiveness for them; and consult them in affairs (of moment). Then, when thou hast Taken a decision put thy trust in Allah. For Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him).

Nounفَظِيظٌ2 senses

Core sense — the seminal fluid of a woman, or of a stalliongenerated

1[But God cursed your father when you were essentially in his loins; so you are seed of the object of God's curse]—وَلٰكِنَّ ٱللّٰهَ لَعَنَ أَبَاكَ وَأَنْتَ فِى صُلْبِهِ فَأَنْتَ فُظَاظَةٌ مِنْ لَعْنَةِ ٱللّٰهِ

The seminal fluid of a woman, or of a stallion: so they assert, but it is not of established authority; so say IDrd and Fr. According to Kr, the seminal fluid of a stallion in a she-camel's womb; or this is the explanation given by Fr.

فُظَاظَةٌ is of the measure فُعَالَةٌ from this word, meaning the seminal fluid of a stallion, or the water of the stomach; but El-Khattábee disallows the latter meaning. Or it is from فَظٌّ.

Hence the saying of 'Áïsheh to Marwán:

That is, نُطْفَةٌ مِنْهَا, or عُصَارَةٌ مِنْهَا [produce of it, as though pressed out from it].

According to one relation the word is فُضُضٌ, plural of فَضِيضٌ, which means water such as is termed غَرِيض; according to another, فَضَضٌ, meaning نُطْفَةٌ; and according to another, فَضِيضٌ.
