Full Definition
حَظِيظٌ
and
حَظٌّ and
حَظِّىٌّ , as a relative n., accord. to [most of] the copies of the K, or as a defective word, [i. e.
حَظِىٌّ , with a single ظ, as we find it in the CK,] accord. to Az, who says that it is originally حَظٌّ, and
مَحْظُوظٌ , Fortunate; or possessed of good fortune; possessing a good share (حَظٌّ) of the means of subsistence: or the first, accord. to Fr, possessing competence, or sufficiency; or rich, or wealthy, or opulent: the pl. [accord. to analogy of حَظِيظٌ] is أَحِظَّآءُ. (So in the L: [in the TA written أَحْظَآء, which I think a mistake, though it seems to be there implied that it is pl. of حَظٌّ, and if so, we must suppose it to be originally أَحْظَاظٌ, like as حِظَآءٌ, a pl. of the subst. حَظٌّ, if correct, is originally حِظَاظٌ.])
