Core sense — he sprinkled him, or it, with watergenerated
1.1I wetted the garment—نَضَخْتُ الثَّوْبَ
[and نَضِحَ, see below]: he sprinkled him, or it, [with water etc.]; or the same as نَضَحَهُ.
Az: نَضْخٌ means the act of sprinkling, like نَضْحٌ, the two words being synonyms; you say نَضَخْتُ.
Or the first means less than the second, which is what most say; or the first is what is unintentional, and the second what is intentional.
As: the second is the act of a man; and the first, he says, means more than the second, and has no past tense and no muḍāriʿ.
Aboo-'Othmán Et-Towwazee: the first means the mark, or effect, that stays on a garment or other thing, and the act itself is called نَضْحٌ, with ح unpointed.
As: نَضْخٌ has no verb and no ism fāʿil; and A'Obeyd says that it has no past tense or muḍāriʿ traced to any authority.
Muḍāriʿ نَضَحَ and نَضِحَ; and it means more than نَضَحْتُ.
