داولIII
, [Verbal.Noun مُدَاوَلَةٌ,] He made to come round [by turns, or to be by turns]: hence the saying in the Kur [iii. 134], و تِلْكَ الْأَيَّامُ نُدَاوِلُهَا
بَيْنَ النَّاسِ
And those days, we make them to come round [by turns] to men: or this means, we dispense them by turns to men; to these one time, and to these another; or one day to one party, and one day to another. You say, دَاوَلْتُ الشَّىْءَ بَيْنَهُمْ [I dispensed the thing among them by turns, and they had, or received, or took, it by turns]. مُدَاوَلَةٌ also signifies The giving a turn of fortune, or good fortune.
