Full Definition

غَاذٌّ [act. part. n. of 1, q. v.: as such signifying A vein incessantly bleeding.
2 Also A recrudescence (عَرَب [Verbal.Noun of عَرِبَ], so in the O, in copies of the K غَرَب, and in the CK غَرْب, [app. a mistranscription suggested by another explanation of غَاذٌّ which will be found in what follows,]) in any part of the body. AZ says, what we call العَرَبُ, the Arabs term الغَاذُّ. One says of a camel that has had a gall on the back which has healed but is, or becomes, moist [or exuding], بِهِ غَاذٌّ [He has a gall which has healed but is moist, or constantly discharging, or exuding].
3 And A vein, or duct, in the eye, [also called غَرْبٌ,] which flows incessantly. In this sense, and in that immediately preceding, it is a subst. like كَاهِلٌ and غَارِبٌ.

def.2 And الغَاذُّ signifies الحِسُّ: one says, قَطَعَ ٱللّٰهُ غَاذَّ فُلَانٍ i. e. حِسَّهُ [app. meaning May God cause to cease the sound of such a one].
