عذل

عُذَلَةٌ ذ One who blames, or censures, others much or often; (S, O, K;) an epithet like ضُحَكَةٌ and هُزَأَةٌ; (S;) [and ↓ عَذُولٌ is used in the same sense, agreeably with analogy, but is perhaps post-classical;] as also ↓ عَذَّالٌ; (K;) and this last with ة is applied in this sense to a woman. (TA.) Hence the prov., أَنَا عُذَلَةٌ وَأَخِى خُذَلَةٌ وَكِلَانَا لَيْسَ بِا@بْنِ أَمَةٍ [lit. I am one who blames others much, and my brother is one who constantly abstains from rendering aid, and neither of us is a son of a female slave; but expl. as] meaning I blame my brother, and he abstains from aiding me.
