Full Definition

عَزِيمٌ A vehement running. (K, TA. [In the CK, العَدُوُّ is erroneously put for العَدْوُ.]) Rabeea Ibn-Makroom Ed-Dabbee says, لَوْلَا أُكَفْكِفُهُ لَكَادَ إِذَا جَرَى مِنْهُ العَزِيمُ يُدُقُّ فَأْسَ المِسْحَلِ [If I did not restrain him, when he runs, his vehement running would almost break the piece of iron that stands up in the mouth from the middle of the bit-mouth: see مِسْحَلٌ].
