يُشَاحُّنِىIII [He is niggardly, tenacious, &c., as above, with me, of such a thing]. [The Verbal.Noun] مُشَاحَّةٌ [in the CK erroneously written مَشاحَّة] is syn. with ضِنَّةٌ: hence the saying, لَا مُشَاحَّةَ فِى الاِصْطِلَاحِ [There shall be no acting in a niggardly manner, of one with another, in the making of peace, one with another]. And one says, فُلَانٌ يُشَاحُّ عَلَى فُلَانٍ Such a one is tenacious of such a one; syn. يَضَنُّ بِهِ.
