خدع
1 خَدَعَهُ, (
TA,) [
aor. ـَ
inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (
Bd in ii. 8,) He hid it, or concealed it; (
TA;) as also ↓ اخدعه, (
Msb,
TA,)
inf. n. إِخْدَاعٌ. (
TA.)
b2: [And hence,
app.,] (
Lh,
K,)
inf. n. as above, (
Lh,) (
tropical:) He doubled it, or folded it, one part upon another; namely, a garment, or piece of cloth. (
Lh,
K,
TA.)
b3: [And hence, also,
accord. to some,] خَدَعَهُ,
aor. ـَ
inf. n. خَدْعٌ (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K) and خِدْعٌ, (
Az,
S,
K,) or the latter is a simple
subst., (
Msb,
TA,) and خَدِيعَةٌ, (
TA,) or this [also] is a simple
subst., (
Msb,
TA,) like خِدَاعٌ, [which is also an
inf. n. of 3,] and like خُدٌعَةٌ, (
TA,) He deceived, deluded, beguiled, circumvented, or outwitted, him;
syn. خَتَلَهُ; (
S,
Mgh,
K;) and desired to do to him a foul, an abominable, or an evil, action, without his knowing whence it proceeded: (
S,
K:) or he dissembled [or acted deceitfully] with him; pretended to him the contrary of what he concealed: (
TA:) or he made him to resign, or relinquish, the object that he had in view, by pretending to him something the contrary of what he concealed: (
Er-Rághib,
B:) and ↓ خادعهُ, (
S,
TA,)
inf. n. مُخَادَعَةٌ (
S) [and خِدَاعٌ], signifies the same; (
S, *
TA;) as also ↓ اختدعهُ; and ↓ تخدّعهُ; and ↓ خدّعهُ,
inf. n. تَخْدِيعٌ: (
TA:) or this last signifies he deceived him, deluded him, beguiled him, circumvented him, or outwitted him, much: (
KL:) [and of another of these verbs we find the following various explanations:] ↓ خادعهُ is
syn. with كَايَدَهُ [which has the first of the meanings assigned in this sentence to خَدَعَهُ; or signifies he practised with him mutual deceit, delusion, guile, or circumvention; he deceived him, &c., being deceived, &c., by him; and this latter meaning, if not each meaning, may be intended here by كايده; for
Bd says, (in ii. 8,) that مُخَادَعَة is between two]: (
TA:) or it signifies he strove, endeavoured, or desired, to deceive, delude, beguile, circumvent, or outwit, him; (
AAF,
L;) [agreeably with what is said by Kemál Páshá
Zádeh, (as I find in a marginal note in a copy of the
MS, and also in the
Kull p. 178,) that one says of a man خادع when he has not attained his desire, and خَدَعَ when he has attained his desire;] for many a verb of the measure فَاعَلَ relates to one only; as in the instances of عَاقَبْتُ اللِّصَّ and طَارَقْتُ النَّعْلَ: (
L:) or it signifies, [like خَدَعَهُ,] he pretended to him something different from that which was in his mind. (
K.) It is said in the
Kur [ii. 8], اللّٰهَ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا ↓ يُخَادِعُونَ, (
TA,) meaning They pretend, to God and to those who have believed, something different from that which is in their minds, by concealing unbelief and pretending belief; for when they do thus to the believers, they do thus to God: (
K:) and again, [in iv. 141], اللّٰهَ وَهُوَ خَادِعُهُمْ ↓ يُخَادِعُونَ [They strive, endeavour, or desire, to deceive God, or] they think that they deceive God, but He is [their deceiver, i. e.,] the requiter, to them, of their خِدَاع [or deceit, &c.]: (
TA:) or the meaning is [they deceive] the friends of God: (
S:) and [agreeably with this last rendering, and that given in the
K,] Aboo-Hayáh reads, in the former passage, يَخْدَعُونَ اللّٰهَ: (
TA:) [which passage continues thus:] إِلَّا أَنْفُسَهُمْ ↓ وَمَا يُخَادِعُونَ [but they do not deceive any save themselves]; i. e., the re-sult of their خِدَاع [or deceit] does not befall any save themselves: (
K:) here, again, Aboo-Hayáh reads يَخْدَعُونَ: (
TA:) Muärrik reads وَمَا
↓ يَخَدِّعُونَ, meaning يَخْتَدِعُونَ. (
K.)
Accord. to
IAar, الخَدْعُ signifies مَنْعُ الحَقِّ [meaning The preventing from discovering, or accepting, the truth]. (
L.) [“ He deceived him,” or the like, seems to be generally regarded as the primary signification of خَدَعَهُ, for it occupies the first place in all the lexicons to which I have access: but
Bd says (in ii. 8) that this meaning is from خَدَعَ said of the ضَبِّ, and that the primary signification of خَدْعٌ is the act of “ concealing: ” the action of the ضبّ, however, as will appear in what follows, implies, and originates from, a desire of deceit; and so, often, does the act of concealing.]
b4: [Hence,
app.,] خَدَعْتُهُ I gained the mastery over him. (
TA.)
b5: خَدَعَ, (
Lth,
TA, &c.,)
aor. ـَ
inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (
TA,) said of a [lizard of the kind called] ضَبّ, [as though meaning either خَدَعَ المُحْتَرِشَ It deceived the hunter, or خَدَعَ نَفْسَهُ it concealed itself,] signifies it entered into its hole; (
Lth;) as also خَدَعَ فِى حُجْرِهِ: (
S,
K:) or it scented a man, and therefore entered its hole, in order that it might not be caught; as also ↓ انخدع: (
TA:) or it entered into its hole in a tortuous manner: and in like manner, a gazelle into its covert: but mostly said of a ضبّ: (Abu-l-'Omeythil:) also said of other things: (
Lth:) of a fox, meaning he took to going to the right and left, deceitfully, or guilefully: and of a man, meaning he hid himself from another: and he assumed a disposition not his own. (
TA.) [See also خِدَاعٌ, below.]
b6: Hence, i. e. from خَدَعَ said of the ضبّ, (
A,
TA,) خَدَعَتْ عَيْنُ الشَّمْسِ (
tropical:) The disc of the sun set; (
A,
K,
TA;) like خَضَعَتْ. (
TA in art. خضع.)
b7: [And] خَدَعَتْ عَيْنُهُ (
tropical:) His eye sank, or became depressed, in his head. (
Lh,
K,
TA.) [Also meaning (assumed
tropical:) His eye did not sleep: for] خَدَعَتِ العَيْنُ signifies (assumed
tropical:) the eye did not sleep. (
TA.)
b8: [Hence also, as indicated in the
S,] مَا خَدَعَتْ فِى عَيْنِى نَعْسَةٌ (assumed
tropical:) [A slumber did not enter my eye]: (
S:) or مَا خَدَعَتْ بِعَيْنِهِ نَعْسَةٌ, (so in the
L,) or خَدْعَةٌ, i. e. نَعْسَةٌ, (so in the
TA,) meaning (
tropical:) a slumber did not pass by his eye. (
L,
TA.) [And from the same source have originated several other
tropical significations, of which exs. here follow.]
b9: خَدَعَتِ الأُمُورِ (
tropical:) The affairs varied in their state; or were, or became, variable. (Ibn-'Abbád,
K.)
b10: خَدَعَتِ السُّوقُ, (
S,
K,)
inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (
TA,) (
tropical:) [The market varied in its state; at one time being brisk, and at another time dull, in respect of traffic: (see خَادِعٌ, below:) or] the market became dull in respect of traffic; (
S,
K;) as also ↓ انخدعت; (
Lh,
TA;) or انخدع: (
K: [but سوق is generally
fem.:]) and, as some say, it became brisk in respect of traffic: thus it appears to have two
contr. significations: (
TA:) and خَدَعَ السِّعْرُ (
tropical:) The price became high, or dear. (
TA.)
b11: Said of a man, خَدَعَ also signifies (
tropical:) His wealth, (
K,
TA,) and the like, (
TA,) became small in amount, or little. (

TA.)
b12: Said of a time,
inf. n. خَدْعٌ, (

tropical:) It became little. (
K,
TA.)
b13: Said of spittle, or saliva, (
tropical:) It dried: (
S,
K,
TA:) or it became little, and dried, in the mouth: (
A,
TA.) or it became deficient; and when it becomes deficient, it becomes thick; and when it becomes thick, it becomes stinking: (
TA:) or it became corrupt: (
IAar,
TA:) and in like manner, said of a thing, it became corrupt, or bad. (
TA.) [See also خَادِعٌ, below.]
b14: Said of a generous man, (
K,) (
tropical:) He refrained [from giving], (
S,
L,
K,) and refused. (
L.) You say, كَانَ فُلَانٌ يُعْطِى ثُمَّ خَدَعَ (
tropical:) [Such a one used to give; then he refrained, and refused]. (
S.)
A2: خَدَعَهُ

S,
Mgh,
Msb,
K,) and ↓ خِدْعَةٌ, (
K,) and ↓ خُدَعَةٌ, (
Az,
Ks,
S,
Mgh,
K,)
accord. to different relaters; (
Th,
Mgh,
K;) the first being the most chaste, (
S,
Mgh,
Msb,) said to be the form used by Mo-hammad; (
Th,
Mgh,
Msb;) the second ascribed by El-Khattábee to the vulgar; (
TA;) the last the best in point of meaning: (

Mgh,
O,
K;)
accord. to the second, war is a thing by which one is deceived; (

S,
K,) much; (
K;) like as لُـ
ـعْنَةٌ signifies one “ who is much cursed. ” (
TA.) [See, again, خَدْعَةٌ. The comparison of خُدْعَةٌ in one sense with لُعْبَةٌ, and in another sense with لُـ
ـعْنَةٌ, suggests that one of the explanations above may perhaps be founded upon a mistranscription. On فُعْلَةٌ as the measure of a word having the sense of a
pass. part. n., see a remark of
IB voce لَقَطٌ.]
b3: See also خَدِيعَةٌ.

(
O,
TA.) خَدُوعٌ: see خَادِعٌ, in three places.
b2: Also (assumed

Mgh,
K;) and ↓ خَدَّاعُ, (
Msb,
TA,) and ↓ خَدِعٌ, and ↓ خَيْدَعٌ; (
TA;) [but these three are also intensive epithets, like خَدُوعٌ;] and ↓ خُدَعَةٌ signifies one who deceives, &c., other men; (
S;) or [rather] this last is
syn. with خَدُوعٌ as explained above, (
K,) or خَدَّاعٌ: (
Mgh:) [the

tropical:) Anything unsaleable, or difficult of sale, and in little demand. (

K. [In the
CK, المُخْتَالُ is erroneously put for المُحْتَالُ.])
b2: Also A person in whose love, or affection, no confidence is placed. (
