Accord. to IAar, فاناهُ signifies واِجاهُ [app. a mistranscription for وَاخَاهُ, originally اآخَاهُ, He fraternized with him; or acted with him in a brotherly manner ]. (TA.) [Hence the phrase] أُفَانِى الأَيَّامَ i. e. أُزَجِّى الزَّمَانَ [meaning I make the time to pass away easily; as though beguiling it].
