ضَرٌّ ذ The taking a wife in addition to another wife; (S;) a subst. from ضَرَّةٌ. (K.) You say, نُكِحَتِ المَرْأَةُ عَلَى ضِرٍّ The woman was taken to wife in addition to a former wife. (S.) And, accord. to Aboo-'Abd-Allah Et-Tuwál, تَزَوَّجْتُ المَرْأَةَ عَلَى ضِرٍّ and ↓ ضُرٍّ [ I took the woman to wife in addition to another wife ]. (S.) And تَزَوَّجَ عَلَى ضِرٍّ and ↓ ضُرٍّ i. e. ↓ مُضَارَّةٍ, meaning He married so as to have two or three wives together. (K.) And Kr mentions the phrase, تَزَوَّجْتُ المَرْأَةَ عَلَى ضِرٍّ كُنَّ لَهَا [ I took to wife the woman in addition to others who were her fellow-wives ]: and if it be so, ضِرّ is an inf. n. [used in this instance as an epithet, and therefore applicable to a pl. number as well as to a single person], formed by the rejection of the augmentative letter [in its verb, i. e. أَضَرَّ], or it is a pl. that has no sing. (TA.) -A2- One says also رَجُلٌ ضِرُّ أَضْرَارٍ (K, TA) i. e. A man [who is] a strong one of strong ones; like as one says صِلُّ أَصْلَالٍ and ضِلُّ أَضْلَالٍ: (TA:) or very cunning (دَاهِيَةٌ) in his judgment, or opinion. (K, TA.)
