    Bearing, or carrying, a heavy load, or burden. (A.) ― -b2- [Hence,] also, (A,) and ↓ مَوْزُورٌ, (S, A, Msb, K,) (tropical:) Sinning: (S, A, K:) or bearing [a burden of] sin. (Msb.) مَأْزُورَاتٍ occurs in a trad., for مَوْزُورَاتٍ, the regular form, because it is there coupled with مَأْجُورَاتٍ, to which it is opposed. (S, Mgh, Msb, K.)
  • مَوْزُورٌ Open entry
