1 فَضَّهُ ذ , (S, Mgh, O, Msb,) aor. يَفُضُّ, (S, O, Msb,) inf. n. فَضٌّ, (S, A, Mgh, O, Msb, K.) He broke it; namely, the seal (A, Mgh, Msb, K) of a letter; (A, K;) and any other thing; (TA:) he broke it asunder, or into several pieces; he dissundered it; (S, Mgh, O, K;) for instance, the seal from a letter. (S, O.) فَصَّ الخَاتَمَ is also a metonymical phrase, meaning (tropical:) Inivit: (TA.) [or rather, i. a. ] فَضّ البَكَارَةَ (tropical:) he destroyed the virginity: the virginity being likened to a seal, or this phrase is from فَضَضْتُ اللُّؤْلُؤَةَ I bored, or perforated, the pearl. (Msb.) [See also 8.] You say also, فَضَّ ا@للّٰهُ فَاهُ, (Msb, TA,) and, accord. to IKtt, ↓ أَفَضَّهُ, which J disallows, (TA,) God broke, or may God break, his teeth: (TA;) or God scattered, or may God scatter, his teeth. (Msb.) The phrase لَا يَفْضُضِ ا@للّٰهُ فَاكَ, (S, A.) meaning May God not break thy teeth, (TA,) occurs in a trad.: (S, A:) and J says. (TA,) you should not say ↓ يُفْضِض; (S, TA; [but in one copy of the S, I find يَفْضِض;]) though some allow it: and some say that اـِفْضَاء [evidently a mistake for اـِفْضَاض] means the falling out of the teeth from above and below; but the former explanation is the more common. (TA.) ― -b2- He separated it; dispersed it; scattered it; broke it up; (S, A, Msb, TA;) namely, a thing; (Msb;) or a party of men; (S, O;) or a ring of men, (A, TA,) after they had collected together. (TA.) You say also, فَضَّ المَالَ عَلَى القَوْمِ (Mgh, * TA) He distributed the property among the people, or party of men. (Mgh, TA. *) ― -b3- فَضَضْتُ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا I cut [ the tie, or bond, that was between them ]. (TA.) ― -b4- فَضَّ المَاآءَ, [aor. and] inf. n. as above, He poured out, or forth, the water; (TA;) and so الدُّمُوعَ the tears. (Har p. 57.) [See also 8.] -A2- فَضَّ المَاآءُ, [aor., accord. to rule, يَفِضُّ,] The water flowed: (TA:) and الدُّمُوعُ ↓ انفضّت The tears poured forth. (Har p. 57.)
