Full Definition

اجارهُIV , Verbal.Noun إِجَارَةٌ and جَارَةٌ , [or the latter is rather a quasi-Verbal.Noun, like طَاعَةٌ from أَطَاعَهُ,] He protected him; granted him refuge; preserved, saved, rescued, or liberated, him; from (مِنْ) wrongful, unjust, injurious, or tyrannical, treatment; from punishment; or from what he feared: he aided him; succoured him; delivered him from evil: the أَ having a privative effect. It is said of God, يُجِيرُ وَلَا يُجَارُ عَلَيْهِ He protects, but none is protected against him. And in the Kur [lxxii. 22], قُلْ إِنِّى لَنْ يُجِيرَنِى مِنَ ٱللّٰهِ أَحَدٌ Verily none will protect me against God.
2 اجار المَتَاعَ He put the household-goods, or commodities, into the repository, and so preserved them from being lost.
3 It is said [of God] in a trad., يُجِيرُ بَيْنَ البُحُورِ He makes a division between the seas, and prevents one from mixing with another and encroaching upon it.
