وجب

وَجِيبَةٌ ذ A daily allowance of food; or daily maintenance: syn. وَظِيفَةٌ: (K:) i. e., what a man is accustomed to allow himself [ each day ] as that which is necessary, and fixed: but the word in the A is وَجْبَةٌ, q. v. (TA.) ― -b2- وَجِيبَةٌ [ A term employed in the case of ] one's concluding a sale, and then taking it [ meaning what is sold to him ] by regular successive portions, one after another, (AA, S, K,) or, as some say, on the condition of his taking a portion of it every day, (TA,) until he has taken the whole of his وَجِيبَة: (K:) [which hence appears to signify both the act above described and also what is due to one of a thing purchased and taken in this manner; but more probably the latter is the only meaning intended]. When a person has finished doing this, one says to him قَدِ ا@سْتَوْفَيْتَ وَجِيبَتَكَ [ Thou hast taken the whole of what was due to thee of the thing purchased and taken by thee in the manner above described ]. (S.)
