جد

4 اجدّ النَّخْلُ اجد النخل The palm-trees attained to the time for the cutting off of the fruit. (S, A, * L, Msb, K.) ― -b2- [Hence, perhaps,] أَجَدَّتْ قَرُنِى مِنْهُ I ( myself, TA) relinquished, or forsook, him, or it. (K.) -A2- اجدّهُ, and ↓ استجدّهُ, (S, A, L, K,) and ↓ جدّدهُ, (S, L, K,) He made it new; (S, A, L, K;) namely, a thing, (S,) or a garment: (A, TA:) or he put it on, or wore it, new; namely, a garment. (TA.) One says to him who puts on a new garment, أَبْلِ وَأَجِدَّ وَا@حْمَدِ الكَاسِى [ Wear out, and make, or put on, new, and praise the Clother, meaning God]. (S.) And you say, بَهِىَ بَيْتُ فُلَانٍ فَأَجَدَّ بَيْتًا مِنْ شَعَرٍ [ The tent of such a one was, or became, rent, or pierced with holes; therefore he made a new tent of haircloth ]. (S.) And الأَمْرَ ↓ جدّد, and اجدّهُ, and ↓ استجدّهُ, He originated, or innovated, the thing, or affair; or did it newly, or for the first time (Msb.) And الوُضُوْءَ ↓ جدّد (tropical:) [ He renewed the ablution termed وضوء], and العَهْدَ (tropical:) [ the compact, or contract, or covenant, &c.]. (TA.) ― -b2- اجدّ فُلَانٌ أَمْرَهُ بِذٰلِكَ Such a one established, or settled, firmly his affair, or case, thereby, or therein: so says As, and he cites the following verse: أَجَدَّ بِهَا أَمْرًا وَأَيْقَنَ أَنَّهُ لَهَا أَوْخْرَي كَالطَّحِينَ تُرَابُهَا [ He established, or settled, firmly his case thereby, or therein, and knew certainly that he was for it, (app. meaning a war, or battle, حَرْب, which is fem.,) or for another whereof the dust would be like flour ]: Aboo-Nasr says, It has been related to me that he said, اجدَ بها امرًا means اجدّ أَمْرَهُ بِهَا; [and so this phrase is explained in the K;] but the former explanation I heard from himself: (L:) or this phrase means أَجَدَّ أَمْرُهُ بِهَا [so in two copies of the S, app., (assumed tropical:) his affair, or case, became easy, or practicable, thereby, like ground termed جَدَد, which is easy to walk, or travel, upon; see the next sentence]; امر being put in the accus. case as a specificative, like عَيْنًا in the phrase قَرِرْتُ بِهِ عَيْنًا, meaning قَرَّتْ بِهِ عَيْنِى. (S.) -A3- اجدّ also signifies It (a road) was, or became, what is termed جَدَد [i. e. hard, or level, &c.]. (S, K.) And اجدّت لَكَ الأَرْضُ The ground hath become to thee free from soft places, and clear to thy view. (TA.) ― -b2- Also He walked along, or traversed, what is termed جَدَد. (K.) And اجدّ القَوْمُ The people, or company of men, came to what is so termed: (S:) and ascended upon the surface (جَدِيد) of the ground: or went upon sand such as is termed جَدَد. (TA.) -A4- See also 1, in three places.
