رَجِيعَةٌ

Root: رجع

Full Definition

رَجِيعَةٌ A she-camel that is purchased with the price of another she-camel; as also رَاجِعَةٌ : or a female that is purchased with the price of a male. [See also رِجْعَةٌ: and see رَجِيعٌ, of which it is originally the fem.] Accord. to ISk, رَجْعِيَّةٌ signifies A camel which one has purchased from men who have brought him from another place for sale; which is not of the district in which he is: [but this appears to be a mistranscription, for رَجِيعَةٌ; for he adds,] the pl. is رَجَائِعُ.
