maṣdarوَعْدٌ إِيعَادٌmuḍāriʿيَعِدُ

Core sense — he promised; he threatened him with evilgenerated

1.1figurative · مجازHe promised him good—وَعَدَهُ خَيْرًا

maṣdar وَعْدٌ and عِدَةٌ [in which the ة is a substitute for the elided و], or this last is a quasi-maṣdar; and مَوْعِدٌ and مَوْعِدَةٌ, or the last of these is a quasi-maṣdar; and مَوْعُودٌ and مَوْعُودَةٌ, these last two being maṣdars of the measures مَفْعُولٌ and مَفْعوُلَةٌ: He promised.

It is transitive directly, and also by means of the preposition ب, though some say that in this case the ب is redundant; and most of the lexicologists disallow it with this form of the verb, allowing it only with أَوْعَدَ.

He threatened him with evil—وَعَدَهُ شَرًّا

It is used with reference to good and to evil alike.

And, according to some, وعده بِخَيْرٍ and بِشَرّ.

He promised good—وَعَدَ
He threatened, or threatened with, evil—أَوْعَدَ

When neither good nor evil is mentioned, one says the first of these if good is meant, and the second if evil is meant.

with which وَعِيدٌ is synonymous, this being an irregular maṣdar [or quasi-maṣdar].

He threatened him, or threatened him with evil—أَوْعَدَهُ

Also توعّدهُ, maṣdar تَوَعُّدٌ and اتّعدهُ.

He promised good—اوعد خَيْرًا
He threatened, or threatened with, evil—اوعد بِشَرٍّ

But this is rare.

When ب is introduced after this form of the verb, it relates only to evil; but one also says اوعده شَرًّا.

1.1.1

The Arabs regard failure to perform a promise as a lie, but failure to carry out a threat as generosity.

A poet says: [And if I threaten him or promise him, I fail to carry out my threat but fulfil my promise]

shāhid
وَإِنِّى وَإِنْ أَوْعَدْتُهُ أَوْ وَعَدْتُهُلَمُخْلِفُ إِيعَادِى وَمُنْجِزُ مَوْعِدِى

.

Indeed, they do not apply the term خُلْفٌ to the failure of carrying out a threat.
