Full Definition
مغدف
, [app. مُغْدِفٌ, or perhaps taken from a mistranscription for مُغْدِقٌ,] as an epithet applied to means of subsistence (عَيْشٌ), signifies Smooth and ample. [Freytag mentions مُغَدَّفٌ and مُغَدَّقٌ, each having the fem. with ة, as signifying Copious, applied to rain: both from the “ Fákihet el-Khulafà, ” p. 141, l. 3; where the word is مغدقة, evidently مُغْدِقَة, and rhyming with مُطْبِقَة.]
