إِسْآدٌ

Root: سأد

Form: 4

Full Definition

إِسْآدٌIV signifies The hastening, or being quick, in journeying; and is mostly used in relation to journeying by night: or the journeying all the night; or the journeying in the night without alighting to rest; and تَأْوِيبٌ signifies the “ journeying in the day without alighting to rest: ” or the journeying of camels night and day together. And سَأَدٌ occurs [as an Verbal.Noun in the sense of إِسْآدٌ]; but [ISd says] I know not any verb [properly] belonging to it.
