حِزَاقٌ

Root: حزق

Full Definition

حِزَاقٌ Anything with which one ties, binds, or makes fast. [The meaning of بِالضُّرُوَرة assigned by Golius to حِزَاقًا is a mistake, occasioned by his misunderstanding a passage in the K, where it is said of a woman that she used حِزَاقًا by poetic license (لِلضَّرُورَةِ) for حَازِوقًا, a proper name of a man.]
