آخاهُIII , vulgarly وَاخَاهُ, or the latter is a dial. var. of weak authority, said by some to be of the dial. of Teiyi, Verbal.Noun مُؤَاخَاةٌ and إِخآءٌ and وِخَآءٌ, and [quasi-Verbal.Noun] إِخَاوَةٌ and وِخَاوَةٌ, He fraternized with him; acted with him in a brotherly manner: A'Obeyd mentions, on the authority of Yz, آخَيْتُ and وَاخَيْتُ, and آسَيْتُ and وَاسَيْتُ, and آكَلْتُ and وَاكَلْتُ: the pret. is said to be thus assimilated to [a form of] the fut.; for they used [sometimes] to say, يُوَاخِى, changing the hemzeh into و.
2 It is said in a trad., آخَى بَيْنَ المُهَاجِرِينَ وَالأَنْصَارِ, meaning He united the emigrants [to El-Medeeneh] with the assistants [previously dwel-ling there] by the brotherhood of El-Islám and of the faith. You say also, آخَيْتُ بَيْنَ الشَّيْئَنْنِ [I united the two things as fellows, or pairs]; and sometimes one says, وَاخَيْتُ, like as one says, وَاسَيْتُ, for آسَيْتُ; mentioned by ISk.
