أَذِينٌ

Root: اذن

Full Definition

أَذِينٌ : see أُذُنٌ.

def.2 See also إِذْنٌ, in three places.
2 And see أَذَانٌ.

def.3 I. q. مُؤْذِنٌ [Making to know or have knowledge, بِأَمْرٍ of a thing; informing, apprizing, advertising, or advising; giving information, intelligence, notice, or advice; making known, notifying, or announcing]: like أَلِيمٌ and وَجِيعٌ as meaning مُؤْلِمٌ and مُوجِعٌ.
2 See also مُؤَذِّنٌ.

def.4 One who is responsible, answerable, amenable, or a surety; [بِأَمْرٍ for a thing; and perhaps also بِغَيْرِهِ for another person;] syn. كَفِيلٌ and زَعِيمٌ [which signifies the same as كَفِيلٌ, and is plainly shown in the M to be here used as a syn. of this latter; but SM assigns to it here another meaning, namely رَئِيسٌ, in which sense I find no instance of the use of أَذِينٌ]; and آذِنٌ also is syn. with أَذِينٌ in the sense of كَفِيلٌ.

def.5 Also A place to which the أَذَان [or call to prayer] comes [or reaches] from [or on] every side.
