أَذْكَرُ

Full Definition

أَذْكَرُ More, and most, sharp, acute and ardent, vigorous and effective in affairs. Mohammad used to go round to his wives in one night, and to perform the ablution termed غُسْل for his visit to every one of them; and being asked wherefore he did so, he answered, إِنَّهُ أَذْكَرُ It is more, or most, sharp [or effective]; syn. أَحَدُّ. And it was said to Ibn-Ez-Zubeyr, when he was prostrated, وَٱللّٰهِ مَا وَلَدَتِ النِّسَآءُ أَذْكَرَ مِنْكَ By God, women have not brought forth one more acute and ardent and vigorous and effective in affairs than thou.
