مُخْتَبِطٌ

Full Definition

مُخْتَبِطٌ One who asks [a benefit or favour] of another without there being anything to draw him near, and without acquaintance. (JK, TA. * [In the latter, مُخْبِطٌ , which is doubtless a mistake, is explained in one place as signifying One who seeks a gift without any previous acquaintance.])
