خسر

1 خَسِرَ, (S, A, Msb, K, &c.,) aor. ـَ (K;) and خَسَرَ, aor. ـِ (K;) but the latter is an unusual form [except in the sense of أَخْسَرَ]; (B, TA;) inf. n. خُسْرَانٌ (S, A, Msb, K) and خُسْرٌ (S, Msb, K) and خَسَارَةٌ (Msb, K) [which are the only forms assigned in the TA to the verb when used with reference to traffic] and خُسُرٌ and خَسْرٌ and خَسَرٌ and خَسَارٌ; (K;) He lost, or suffered loss or diminution: or he was deceived, cheated, beguiled, or circumvented: (K:) فِى البَيْعِ in selling; (S;) or فِى بَيَعِهِ in his selling; (A;) or فِى تِجَارَتِهِ in his traffic: (Msb, K: [see also 4:]) the former is the original signification: (TA:) he suffered diminution of his capital; he lost part thereof: (B, TA:) and he lost his capital altogether. (Bd in iv. 118; &c.) خُسْرَانٌ is also attributed to an action, as well as to a man: (B, TA:) you say, (but in this case the verb is used tropically, A,) خَسِرَتْ تِجَارَتُهُ (tropical:) [His traffic was losing; or an occasion of loss]; (A, B;) opposed to رَبِحَتْ. (A.) It is also used in relation to personal acquisitions; such as health, and safety, and intellect, and faith, and the recompense or reward of obedience [to God], which God has declared [Kur xxii. 11 and xxxix. 17] to be manifest خُسْرَان, (B,) since there is none like it. (Bd.) For instance, you say, خَسِرَ عَقْلَهُ, and مَالَهُ, He lost his intellect, and his property. (IAar.) [In a phrase of this kind, the noun which immediately follows the verb may be considered as put in the accus. case on account of the rejection of a prep., namely فِى: for] it is said that خَسِرَ is never used otherwise than intransitively: though this has been contradicted, on the ground of the following phrase in the Kur [xxii. 11], خَسِرَ الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةَ [He hath lost, or he loseth, the things of the present life and of the latter life]; and the like; as الَّذِينَ خَسِرُوا أَنْفُسَهُمْ وَ أَهْلِيهِمْ [Who shall have lost themselves, or their own souls, and their families, or their wives; Kur xxxix. 17 and xlii. 44]; (MF, TA;) i. e., themselves, or their own souls, by their having erred, and their families by their having caused them to err, or by being separated from them for ever; (Bd;) or by being themselves made to remain for ever in Hell, and by their not gaining access to the حُور prepared in Paradise [as wives] for the believers: (Jel:) or the meaning is, accord. to Fr, who shall be deceived of their own souls, &c.: or, accord. to others, who shall have destroyed their own souls, &c. (TA.) b2: Also [He experienced, or saw, that he was loser; or] his having lost became manifest to him: so in the Kur xl. [78 and] last verse. (TA.) b3: Also (with all the forms of the inf. n. above mentioned, K,) He erred; went astray; deviated from, or lost, or missed, the right way: or he became lost; he perished; or he died: syn. ضَلَّ, (K,) and هَلَكَ. (Msb.) A2: خَسَرَهُ, (A 'Obeyd, IAar, Zj, S, A, &c.,) aor. ـِ (Zj, Msb) and خَسُرَ, (Bd in lv. 8,) inf. n. خَسْرٌ (Msb, K) and خُسْرَانٌ; (K;) and ↓ اخسرهُ, (A 'Obeyd, Zj, S, A, Msb,) inf. n. إِخْسَارٌ; (Msb, K;) and ↓ خسّرهُ; (A;) He made it defective, or deficient; (A 'Obeyd, IAar, Zj, S, A, Msb, K;) namely, the weight, and the measure; (Zj, TA;) and the thing weighed; (TA;) and the balance, (A 'Obeyd, IAar, Zj, A, Msb,) by diminishing the weight. (Msb.) ↓ The second of these forms is more common, in this sense, than the first (Zj, TA) [and than the third]. For الْمِيزَانَ ↓ وَ لَا تُخْسِرُوا, in the Kur lv. 8, there are three other readings; namely تَخْسُرُوا and تَخْسُروا and تَخْسَرُوا; in the last of which, the prep. فِى is omitted after the verb. (Bd.) b2: [And He, or it, made him to lose, or suffer loss; to err, or go astray; to become lost, or to perish.]2 خسّرهُ, (A, K,) inf. n. تَخْسِيرٌ, (S, K,) i. q. خَسَرَهُ, q. v.: (A:) [and particularly] He, or it, destroyed him; caused him to perish. (S, K.) You say, خسّرهُ سُوْءُ عَمَلِهِ (tropical:) The evilness of his conduct caused him to perish. (A.) b2: He put him away, or far away; removed, alienated, or estranged, him; (IAar, Msb;) from good, or prosperity. (IAar.) b3: He attributed, or imputed, to him خُسْرَان [i. e. loss; or error, or deviation from the right way]: like كَذَّبَهُ meaning “ he attributed, or imputed, to him lying,”

&c. (Msb.) 4 اخسرهُ i. q. خَسَرَهُ, which see in three places: (A 'Obeyd, Zj, S, A, Msb:) [and particularly] He made him to lose, or suffer loss, in his traffic; contr. of أَرْبَحَهُ. (A.) A2: And اخسر He fell into loss; (A;) he met with loss in his traffic. (TA. [See also 1.]) خُسْرٌ an inf. n. of خَسِرَ. (S, Msb, K.) In the Kur ciii. 2, accord. to some, it means Punishment for sin.

خُسْرَانٌ an inf. n. of خَسِرَ. (S, A, Msb, K.) [For particular usages thereof, see 1. As a simple subst., it generally signifies Loss, or the state of suffering loss or diminution: the state of being deceived or cheated: error, or deviation from the right way: (see also خَسَارٌ:) or the state of becoming lost, of perishing, or of dying.] b2: It is also an inf. n. of خَسَرَهُ.
