Full Definition

صَؤُولٌ A camel that devours his pastor; that springs upon men, and devours them: a camel that kills men, and springs, or rushes, upon them: or a camel that leaps, or springs, upon the [other] camels, and fights them: or a stallion that fights the [other] camels, and sends them on before. And A man who beats others, and overbears, overpowers, or subdues, them. Accord. to Az, it is originally without ء, and is app. pronounced with ء because the و is with damm.
