دنف دنق دنو


1. ⇒ دنق

دَنَقَ, aor. ـُ {يَدْنُقُ} and ـِ {يَدْنِقُ}, inf. n. دُنُوقٌ, He pursued small, little, or minute, things. (JK, Ibn-ʼAbbád, Z, Ḳ. [See also 2.]) [Two other significations assigned to دَنَقَ in the CK and in the Lexicons of Golius and Freytag belong to دَنَّقَ.]


2. ⇒ دنّق

دنّق, (Ṣ, Mgh, TA,) inf. n. تَدْنِيقٌ, (Mgh, Ḳ,) He went to the utmost point [in his dealings, &c.]: (Ṣ, Ḳ, TA:) he was minute, observant of small things, nice, or scrupulous: (Mgh:) he examined minutely into his dealings and expenses. (So accord. to an explanation of the act. part. n. in the TA.) Hence the saying, لَا تُدَنَّقُوا فَيُدَنَّقَ عَلَيْكُمْ [Go not ye to the utmost point against others, for in that case the utmost point may be gone to against you]. (Ṣ, TA.) And the saying of El-Ḥasan, (Mgh, TA,) لَعَنَ ٱللّٰهُ الدَّانَقَ وَمَنْ دَنَّقَ, (TA,) or وَمَنْ دَنَّقَ بِهِ, (Mgh,) [May God curse the دانق and him who has been minute,, &c., in his dealings, or and him who has been minute,, &c., therewith;] as though he meant to forbid the considering and examining a paltry or contemptible thing: (TA:) or, as some relate it, وَأَوَّلَ مَنْ أَحْدَثَ الدَّانَقَ [and the first who innovated the دانَق], meaning El-Hajjáj. (Mgh.)
