أَمَرْتُ لَهُ بِرَضْخٍ وَرَضَخْتُهُ [I ordered the giving of a small gift to him, or I ordered a small gift to him, and I gave him a small gift] occurs in a tradition. (S.)

رَضْخٌ, (S, Mgh, Msb, TA,) originally an inf. n., used as a subst. [properly so termed]; or of the measure فَعْلٌ in the sense of the measure مَفْعُولٌ, like ضَرْبُ الأَمِيرِ [applied to a dirhem]; (Msb;)

[He has a fragment of bread]: (A: [so in a copy of that work; and this is agreeable with significations of رَضَخَ: or the right reading may be خَبَرٍ: (see the last sentence in this paragraph:) or it may be that which here next follows:])

عِنْدَهُ رَضْخُ خَيْرٍ He has somewhat of good, or of good things. (Msb.) Also A small gift; (S, * L, Msb, TA;) and so ↓ رَضْخَةٌ (JK, A, [in my copy of the Mgh, erroneously, رَضِخَةٌ,]) and ↓ رَضِيخَةٌ (Mgh, L) and ↓ رُضَاخَةٌ: (L:) or a moderate gift, neither good nor bad; and so ↓ رَضِيخَةٌ: (L:) and a small gift, less than one's share, of booty.
