حدج

1 حَدَجَهُ, (S, A, K, *) aor. ـِ inf. n. حَدْجٌ (S, K) and حِدَاجٌ, (TA,) He bound the حِدْج upon him, i. e., upon the camel; (S, A, K;) as also ↓ احدجهُ: (K:) or he bound upon him the حِدَاجَة, i. e., the [saddle called] قَتَب and its apparatus; (Az, TA;) which apparatus consists of the بِدَادَانِ with the two girths called the بِطَان and the حَقَب, without which a camel is not [said to be] مَحْدُوج. (Sh, TA.) [See حِدْجٌ.] Accord. to J, حَدَجَ also signifies He bound loads, or burdens, and divided them into camel-loads: (TA:) but this is a meaning that was unknown to the Arabs. (Az, TA.) J cites as an ex. the words of ElAashà, أَلِلْبَيْنِ تُحْدَجُ أَحْمَالُهَا [Is it for separation that her loads are bound &c.?]: but he adds that, accord. to one reading, the poet said أَجْمَالُهَا: and this [SM says] is the right reading. (TA.) b2: [Hence, حَدَجَ is used to signify (tropical:) He betook himself to warring for the sake of the religion.] 'Omar is related to have said, حِجَّةٌ هٰهُنَا ثُمَّ احْدِجْ هٰهُنَا حَتَّى تَفْنَى, meaning Perform one pilgrimage, then (tropical:) betake thyself to warring for the sake of the religion until thou become old and weak, or die; احدج literally signifying bind the حِدَاجَة upon the camel. (Az, TA.) b3: [Hence also,] حَدَجَهُ, (TA,) inf. n. حَدْجٌ, (K,) (tropical:) He imposed upon him in a sale. (K, TA.) You say, حَدَجْتُهُ بِبَيْعٍ سَوْءٍ (A, TA) (tropical:) I imposed upon him with a bad sale, and بِمَتَاعٍ سَوْءٍ with bad merchandise. (TA.) The person imposed upon is likened to a camel upon which a حِدَاجَة is bound. (Az, TA.) b4: And حَدَجْتُهُ بِمَهْرٍ ثَقيلٍ (tropical:) I imposed upon him a heavy dowry, by deceit and fraud. (A, TA.) A2: Also, aor. ـِ inf. n. حَدْجٌ, He cast حَدَج [or unripe and hard colocynths, or small colocynths, or small and green colocynths or melons,] at him. (A, TA.) b2: Hence, (A, TA,) حَدَجَهُ بِسَهْمٍ, (S, A,) inf. n. حَدْجٌ, (K,) (tropical:) He shot at him with an arrow. (S, A, K.) And حَدَجَهُ بِعَصًا, inf. n. حَدْجٌ, (tropical:) He beat him, or struck him, with a staff, or stick. (Ibn-ElFaraj, K, * TA.) b3: [Hence also,] حَدَجَهُ بِالتُّهَمَةِ, inf. n. حَدْجٌ, (tropical:) He cast suspicion upon him. (K, * TA, * TK.) And حَدَجَهُ بِذَنْبِ غَيْرِهِ (S, A) (tropical:) He accused him of the crime, or offence, of another, (S, TA,) and put it upon him. (TA.) And حَدَجَهُ بِبَصَرِهِ, (S, A,) aor. ـِ inf. n. حَدْجٌ (S, TA) and حُدُوجٌ; and ↓ حدّجهُ, inf. n. تَحْدِيجٌ; (TA;) (tropical:) He cast his eyes at him; (S, TA;) as also حَدَجَ إِلَيْهِ بَصَرَهُ: or he looked intently, and sharply, at him: or he looked at him with a look which he [the latter] suspected and disliked: (TA:) but حَدْجٌ in looking may be unattended by alarm, or fear: (Az, TA:) ↓ تَحْدِيجٌ is like تَحْدِيقٌ, (S,) syn. therewith: (K:) and also signifies the looking intently, after alarm, or fear. (TA.) b4: Also حَدَجَ, aor. ـِ inf. n. حُدُوجٌ, (assumed tropical:) He (a horse) looked at the figure of a man, or the like, seen from a distance, or heard a sound, and raised his ears, and directed his eyes, towards it.
