ازى

3 اآزاهُ اآزاه اآزاة , (S, K,) inf. n. مُؤَازَاةٌ, (Msb in art. حذو, and TA in art. وزى, &c., [though it would seem from the K to be اـِيزَاآءٌ,]) He (a man, S) was, or became, over against it, or opposite to it; he faced, or fronted, him, or it. (S, * K, * TA in art. وزى.) Accord. to the S, one should not say, وَازَاهُ: but it is said in a trad. respecting the prayer of fear, فَوَازَيْنَا العَدُوَّ, i. e. And we faced, or fronted, the enemy: (TA:) and the inf. n. is مُوَازَاةٌ. (TA in art. وزى.) [Its syn. حَاذَاهُ is more common.] -A2- [Hence مُؤَازَأْق signifying A conformity, a mutual resemblance, or a correspondence, with regard to sound, of two words occurring near together; like اِزْدِوَاجٌ &c.: see art. زوج.] -A3- [Hence, likewise,] اآزِاهُ also signifies He contended with him, syn. جَارَاهُ; (K, TA;) and opposed, or withstood, him, syn. قَاوَمَهُ. (TA.) Whence the saying in a trad., وَفِرْقَةٌ اآزَتِ ا@لْمُلُوكَ فَقَاتَلَتْهُمْ عَلَى دِينِ ا@للّٰهِ [ And a party contended with, and opposed, or withstood, the kings, and fought with them for the religion of God ]. (TA.)
