Root: درأ

Form: 6

Full Definition

تدارؤواVI They repelled, or strove to repel, one another in contention, or altercation, and the like; and disagreed. اِدَّارَأْتُمْ is originally تَدَارَأْتُمْ, the ت being incorporated into the د, because they have the same place of utterance, and the ا being added to commence the word: the meaning is, Ye disagreed; and repelled, or strove to repel, one another. فَٱدَّارَأْتُمْ فِيهَا, in the Kur ii. 67, means And ye contended together respecting it; because those who contend repel one another: or ye repelled, or strove to repel, one another, by each of you casting the slaughter upon his fellow.
