آسِنٌ

Full Definition

آسِنٌ and أَسِنٌ , applied to water, i. q. آجِنٌ [and أَجِنٌ]; [i. e.] Altered for the worse in odour, [or in taste and colour, from some such cause as long standing but drinkable; (see above, and see آجِنٌ;)] or so as not to be drunk, thus differing from آجِنٌ and أَجِنٌ: pl. [of the former] آسَانٌ [like as أَطْهَارٌ is pl. of طَاهِرٌ, or perhaps it may have for its sing. أَسْنٌ, like أَجْنٌ]. مَنْ مَآءٍ غَيْرِ آسِنٍ, in the Kur [xlvii. 16], is explained by Fr as meaning Of water not altered for the worse; not آجِن.
