Full Definition

رَزَقَهُI , Present.T ـُ Verbal.Noun رِزْقٌ, or رَزْقٌ, the latter being the proper Verbal.Noun, and the former a simple subst. but also used as an Verbal.Noun, God caused what is termed رِزْق [q. v.] to come to him: or God gave him. [The verb is doubly trans.: when the second objective complement is implied, the phrase generally means God caused the means of subsistence to come to him; i. e., gave him, granted him, or bestowed upon him, the means of subsistence; or supplied, provided, or blessed, him therewith: when the second objective complement is expressed, this word is generally one signifying the means of subsistence or the like, property, or offspring.] One says also, رَزَقَ الطَّائِرُ فَرْخَهُ, Present.T ـُ Verbal.Noun رَزْقٌ, [The bird fed its young one.] And رَزَقَ الأَمِيرُ الجُنْدَ The commander gave their subsistence-money, pay, or allowances, to the army: and رَزَقَ الجُنْدَ رَزْقَةً He gave the army their subsistence-money, &c., once: and رُزِقُوا رَزْقَتَيْنِ They were given their subsistence-money, &c., twice.
2 [Hence رُزِقَ also signifies It was rained upon.] Lebeed says, رُزِقَتْ مَرَابِيعَ النُّجُومِ وَصَابَهَا وَدْقُ الرَّوَاعِدِ جَوْدُهَا وَرِهَامُهَا meaning مُطِرَتْ; i. e. They were rained upon with the rain of the أَنْوَآء [pl. of نَوْءٌ q. v.] of the رَبِيع, and the rain of the thundering clouds fell upon them, the copious thereof and the drizzling and lasting thereof.
3 And رَزَقَ فُلَانًا He thanked such a one; was thankful, or grateful, to him; or acknowledged his beneficence: of the dial. of Azd, i. e. Azd-Shanooah. One says, فَعَلْتُ ذٰلِكَ لَمَّا رَزَقْتَنِى i. e. لَمَّا شَكَرْتَنِى [I did that since, or because, thou thankedst me]. And hence, in the Kur [lvi. 81], وَتَجْعَلُونَ رِزْقَكُمْ أَنَّكُمْ تَكَذِّبُونَ [And do ye make your thanking to be that ye disacknowledge the benefit received, as being from God?]; i. e., accord. to Ibn-'Arafeh, do ye, instead of acknowledging what God has bestowed upon you, and being thankful for it, attribute it to another than Him? or, accord. to Az and others, [as J also says in the S,] the meaning is, تَجْعَلُونَ شَكْرَ رِزِقْكُمُ التَّكْذِيبَ [do ye make the thanking for your sustenance to be disacknowledgment?]: and some read شَكْرَكُمْ [for رِزْقَكُمْ].
