  • فَضَّهُ Form I He broke it
    , (S, Mgh, O, Msb,) aor. يَفُضُّ, (S, O, Msb,) inf. n. فَضٌّ, (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K.) He broke it; namely, the seal (A, Mgh, Msb, K) of a letter; (A, K;) and any other thing; (TA:) he broke it asunder, or into several pieces; he dissundered it; (S, Mgh, O, K;) for instance, the seal from a letter. (S, O.) فَصَّ الخَاتَمَ is also a metonymical phrase, meaning (tropical:) (??): (TA.) [or rather, i. a.] فَضّ البَكَارَةَ (tropical:) he destroyed the virginity: the virginity being likened to a seal, or this phrase is from فَضَضْتُ اللُّوأْلُوأَةَ I bored, or perforated, the pearl.

(Msb.) The phrase لَا يَفْضُضِ ٱللّٰهُ فَاكَ, (S, A.) meaning May God not break thy teeth, (TA,) occurs in a trad.: (S, A:) and J says. (TA,) you should not say ↓ يُفْضِض; (S, TA; [but in one copy of the S, I find يَفْضِض;]) though some allow it: and some say that إِفْضَاء [evidently a mistake for إِفْضَاض] means the falling out of the teeth from above and below; but the former explanation is the more common. (TA.) ― -b2- He separated it; dispersed it; scattered it; broke it up; (S, A, Msb, TA;) namely, a thing; (Msb;) or a party of men; (S, O;) or a ring of men, (A, TA,) after they had collected together.

    see 7. -A2- تَفَضَّيْتُ from الفِضَّةُ, for تَفَضَّضْتُ, has been mentioned by Sb; but ISd says, I know not what he meant thereby; whether I took for myself, or acquired, فِضَّة, [i. e. silver], or I made use of it. (TA.)

(O, TA.) The verb, thus used, occurs in a trad., but, as some relate it, with ق and ب [i. e. saying تَقْبِضُ instead of تَفْتَضُّ]; and Az mentions that EshSháfi'ee related this trad.
