(T, TA.) It is said in a trad., of 'Omar, (T,) or Ibn-'Omar, (S, TA,) that he purchased a she-camel, and, seeing in her the laceration on the occasion of ظِئْار, returned her. (T, S, * TA.) ― -b2- [Hence,] ظَأَرَهُ عَلَى أَمْرِ كَذَا, and ↓ أَظَأَرَهُ, and ↓ ظَاآءَرَهُ, (tropical:) He made him to incline to such a thing: (Lth, T, TA:) and ظَأَرَنِى عَلَى الأَمْرِ, (so in the CK,) or ↓ ظَاآءَرَنِى عَلَيْهِ, (M, TA, and so in some copies of the K,) inf. n. مُظَاآءَرَةٌ, (TA,) he endeavoured to turn me, or to entice me, to do the thing; (M, K, TA;) it not being in my mind: (TA:) or he compelled me to do the thing, against my will; (K, TA;) I having refused to do it. (TA.) It is said in a prov., الطَّعْنُ يَظْأَرُ, meaning, Thrusting, or piercing, with the spear inclines [one's enemies] to peace: (As, T, A, K:) J says يَظْأَرُهُ, as also IKtt, which F disapproves; but others approve it: or the reading of the S is ↓ يُظْئِرُهُ. (TA.) The Arabs also said, الطَّعْنُ ظِئَارُ قَوْمٍ (M, K) Thrusting, or piercing, with the spear is a means of inclining a people to peace; (K;) meaning, make people to fear, that they may love thee. (M, K.) It is also said, in a trad. of 'Alee, أَظْأَرُكُمْ اـِلَى الحَقِّ وَأَنْتُمْ تَفِرُّونَ مِنْهُ, [perhaps a mistake for على الحقّ,] I incline you [or I endeavour to turn you ] to the truth, and ye flee from it. (TA.) -A2- ظَأَرَتْ, (S, K,) [of which ظُؤُورَةٌ, q. v., appears to be an inf. n.; or you say ظَأَرَتْ عَلَى وَلَدِ غَيْرِهَا, and عَلَى بَوٍّ;] and ↓ اِظَّأَرَتْ; (T, M, K; in one copy of the K اِظْاآرَّتْ;) She (a camel, T, S, M) inclined to, or affected, a young one not her own, (T, M, K,) and suckled it: (K:) or inclined to, or affected, the stuffed skin of a young camel.
