[accord. to general usage], (S,) [that is to say,] it is a compound of two words whereof the latter is inseparable from the former, so that one may not say تَأَمَّلْ قُزَحَ فَمَا أَبْيَنَ قَوْسَهُ [Consider thou Kuzah, for how plain is his bow!], (TA,) and the latter word is said to be the name of a certain devil, as such, imperfectly decl., (TA, Msb,) assigned to the same class as زُحَل, which, as Mbr says, is imperfectly decl. as being a proper name and deviating from its original form: (TA:) it is said in a trad., Say not ye قَوْسُ قُزَحَ, for قُزَحُ is the name of a devil, but say قَوْسُ ٱللّٰهِ: (Msb, TA:) or قُزَحُ is the name of a certain angel who is charged with the management of the clouds: or the name of a certain king of the 'Ajam [i. e.
