تفرّقV
, Verbal.Noun تَفَرَّقٌ and تِفِرَّاقٌ, with two kesrehs, but accord. to the “ Nawádir ” of Lh تَفْرِيقٌ, [and in the CK تَفْراق,] It was, or became, separated, or disunited: or separated much, or greatly, or widely, or into several, or many, portions; or dispersed, or dissipated: contr. of
تَجَمَّعَ: and
افترق signifies the same: and so does
انفرق : all are quasi-pass. of فَرَّقْتُهُ: [or rather the second and third have the former of the meanings mentioned above: and تفرّق has the latter of those meanings:] or
is said of two sayings, as quasi-pass. of فَرَقْتُ بَيْنَهُمَا: and تَفَرَّقَا, of two men, as quasi-pass. of فَرَّقْتُ بَيْنَهَمَا: so says IAar: [but] one says also, افترق القَوْمُ [The party, or company of men, became separated; or they separated themselves:] and Esh-Sháfi'ee has used
as relating to two persons buying and selling; and so have Ahmad [Ibn-Hambal] and Aboo-Haneefeh and Málik and others. It is said in a trad., البَيَّعَانِ بِالخِيَارِ مَا يَتَفَرَّقَا i. e. [The buyer and seller have the option to annul their contract] as long as they have not become separated bodily; originally, مَا
لَمْ يَتَفَرَّقْ أَبْدَانُهُمَا; for this is the proper meaning. تَفَرَّقَتْ بِهِمُ الطُّرُقُ [properly The roads became separate with them,] means every one of them went one [separate] way. [And one says, تفرّقت الأَغْصَانُ (S in art. شذب, &c.,) The branches were, or became, or grew out, apart, one from another; divaricated; diverged; forked; straggled; or spread widely and dispersedly. And تفرّق أَمْرُهُ
His affair, or state of affairs, became discomposed, deranged, disorganized, disordered, or unsettled, so that he considered what might be its issues, or results, saying at one time, I will do thus, and at another time, I will do thus: see أَجْمَعَ; and شَتَّ: and
افترق signifies the same: see an ex. voce فَشَا, in art. فشو. And تفرّقت
كَلِمَتُهُمْ (K voce شَالَ, in art. شول,) Their expression of opinion was, or became, discordant: and تفرّقت آرَاؤُهُمْ
Their opinions were, or became, so.]
