Root: قد

Full Definition

مَقَدِّىٌّ Wine of El-Makadd, a town of the region of the Jordan, or, as is said in the Marásid and the Moajam, near Adhri'át, in the Howrán; wrongly said by J to be without teshdeed to the د, for the wine called مَقَدَىٌّ is different from that called مَقَدِّىٌّ: or it is wine boiled until it is reduced to half its original quantity; likened to a thing that is divided (قُدَّ) in halves; so accord. to Rejá Ibn-Selemeh, and in the Nh and Ghareebeyn; and sometimes it is pronounced without teshdeed to the د.
