(TA.)

see 1, in six places; from قَضَّ السَّوِيقَ to the end of the paragraph.

اقضّ ٱللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ المَضْجَعَ God rendered the bed, or the place where he lay upon his side, rough to him, and dusty: thus the verb is trans. as well as intrans. (Ṣ, Ḳ.*) And اقضّ الشَّىْءَ He left the thing [consisting of, or overspread with,] small pebbles. (Ḳ,* TA.)

انقضّ It (a thing) broke, or became broken. (Mṣb.) Said of a wall, it signifies the same: (T, Mṣb, TA:) or it became thrown down, pulled down, pulled to pieces, demolished, or destroyed, with violence: (A:) or it fell down: (Ṣ:) or it cracked, without falling down; (M, Ḳ;) as also اِنْقَاضَّ [from نَقَضَ]; inf. n. [of the former] اِنْقِضَاضٌ; (Ḳ;) [and اِنْقَاضَ, inf. n. اِنْقِيَاضٌ;] but if it fall, you say, تَقَيَّضَ, inf. n. تَقَيُّضٌ: so says AZ: (TA:) AʼObeyd and others reckon it a biliteral-radical word, belonging to this art.; (M;) or AZ reckons it as such; (TA;) but Aboo-ʼAlee makes it a triliteral-radical, [like its syn. اِنْقَاضَّ,] from نَقَضَ, holding its measure to be اِفْعَلَّ. (M, TA.)

It became cut in pieces. (TA.)

[And hence,] انقضّت أَوْصَالُهُ † His connections became sundered, or separated. (TA.) [See also انفضّ.]

(TA.) You say, انقضّ البَازِى عَلَى الصَّيْدِ The hawk [made a stoop, or] flew down swiftly upon the prey, or quarry. (TA.)

Hence, (Ṣ,) انقضّ said of a star, or an asterism, (Ṣ, A,) ‡ [It darted down: or] it dropped down. (TA.)

Hence also, (TA,) انقضّت عَلَيْهِمْ الخَيْلُ ‡ The horses, or horsemen, rushed, or went swiftly, upon them, or against them: (Ṣ,* TA:) or dispersed themselves, or became dispersed, against them, or upon them. (M, Ḳ.)

اقتضّها ‡ He devirginated her; (Ṣ, M, A, Mgh, Mṣb, Ḳ;) namely a girl, (Ṣ, A, Mgh,) or a woman; (M;) or either, i. e. before and after puberty; whereas ابتكرها and ابتسرها and اختضرها are only used as meaning before puberty: (Mṣb:) and افتضّها, with ف, signifies the same as اقتضّها. (TA.)

[Hence,] اقتضّ الإِدَاوَةَ † He opened the head [or mouth] of the اداوة [or water-skin]. (TA.)

see 1, near the end.

استقضّ مَضْجَعَهُ He found his bed, or the place where he lay upon his side, to be rough. (Ṣ, Ḳ.)

[or rather a quasi-pl. n.] thereof: (AHeyth, L:) and قَضَضٌ also signifies dust that overspreads a bed. (M, Ḳ.)
