Full Definition
تفارطواVI
They vied, or strove, one with another, to precede, outgo, outstrip, or get before. Bishr says, [using the verb transitively,]
2 [Hence,] تفارط فُلَانٌ Such a one preceded, or got before, and made haste.
3 And hence, تَفَارَطَتْهُ الهُمُومُ, and الأُمُورُ,
4 تفارط الشَّىْءُ The time of the thing past; as also تفرّط , which occurs in a trad., relating to a time of prayer, and meaning its time passed before its being performed: and both of these verbs are used in the sense next following in relation to a warring, or warring and plundering, expedition. The time of the thing became postponed, or delayed, so that he who desired it did not attain it. You say, تَفَارَطَتِ الصَّلَاةُ عَنْ وَقْتِهَا The prayer became delayed after its time.
[They contend with the reins, being unbroken and refractory, like as the pigeons vie, one with another, in striving to get first to the scanty remains of rainwater].يُنَازِعْنَ الأَعِنَّةَ مُصْعَبَاتٍ كَمَا يَتَفَارَطُ الثَّمَدَ الحَمَامُ
