Full Definition

أَهْوَىIV He extended, or stretched forth, his arm, or hand, to the thing to take it; it being near: if it be distant, you say, إِلَيْهِ, without ا. And أَهْوَى إِلى سَيْفِهِ He reached his sword; took it with his hand, or with his extended hand; or took hold of it. And أَهْوَيْتُ بِالشَّىْءِ [in my copy of the Msb, erroneously, إِلَى الشَّىْءِ] I made a sign with the thing.
