syn. فَقَدَهُ, (
S,
Msb,
K; *) or لَمْ يَجِدْهُ; so says Ibn-El-Kemál in the Exposition of the Hidáyeh. (

TA.) And عُدِمَ, [
inf. n. عَدَمٌ,] It lacked, wanted, was wanting, was not found, did not exist, or was lost;
syn. فُقِدَ. (
AHát,

expl. in this paragraph:]) in this sense, said of God. (
S,

TA)
b4: أَعْدَمَنِى الشَّىْءُ means [
app. The thing excited my want, or made me to want it; and hence, the thing was not found by me; or] I did not find the thing. (

b5: [and اعدمهُ signifies also He made it to have no existence; to be non-existent; or he annihilated it; or did away with it; agreeably with explanations of the
inf. n. (إِعْدَامٌ) in the
KL and
PS &c., and with present usage.]
A2: اعدم as
intrans., (
Kr,
S,
Msb,
K,)
inf. n. إِعْدَامٌ and ↓ عُدْمٌ, (
Kr,
K,
TA,) like إِيسَارٌ and يُسْرٌ as
inf. ns. of أَيْسَرَ, and إِعْسَارٌ and عُسْرٌ as of أَعْسَرَ, and إِفْحَاشٌ and فُحْشٌ as of أَفْحَشَ, or rather the latter in every one of these instances is a simple

ISd says, (
TA,) signifies He (a man,
S) was, or became, poor, needy, or destitute; (
Kr,
S,
Msb,
K;) as also ↓ عَدِمَ. (
TA.) 7 انعدم in the phrase of the Muslim theologians وُجِدَ الشَّىْءُ فَانْعَدَمَ [meaning The thing existed, and became non-existent,] is a barbarism. (
K, *
TA.) عُدْمٌ: see the next paragraph.
عَدَمٌ and ↓ عُدْمٌ are

TA,) which last occurs in a
trad. as meaning the poor who has become, by reason of the pressure of his want, as though himself were not existing, or lost: عَدِيمٌ signifies having no property; as also ↓ مُعْدِمٌ: and having nothing: it is of the measure فَعِيلٌ in the sense of the measure فَاعِلٌ: and its
pl. is عُدَمَآءُ; erroneously said in the
K to be
pl. of عَدِمٌ. (
TA.)

n.].
b2: يَكْسِبُ المَعْدُومَ means He is fortunate, or possessed of good fortune; [properly,] he attains what others are denied. (
K.) It is said in a
trad., إِنَّكَ لَتَكْسِبُ المَعْدُومَ وَتُطْعِمُ المَأْدُومَ. (
