4 أَحْبَطَ [احبطهُ seems to signify, in its primary acceptation, He made him, (namely a beast,) or it, (the belly,) to be in the state termed حَبَطٌ, which see below. ― -b2- And hence,] احبط عَمَلَهُ (tropical:) He (God, S, K, or a man, Msb) made his work, or deed, to become null, or void, or of no account; to go for nothing; to perish; (Msb, K, * TA;) to be ineffective of reward; or he annulled its reward.

(TA.) And hence also, (Z, TA,) احبط الدَّمَ (tropical:) He made the blood to go for nothing; unretaliated, and uncompensated by a mulct. (Msb, K, * TA. *) ― -b3- احبطهُ الضَّرْبُ The beating made a mark or scar, or marks or scars, upon him.
