He diminished it; lessened it; made it
deficient, or defective: (S, A, Msb, K:) or
he made it faulty. (Msb.) You say,

الكَيْلَ The measurer made defective measure].
(A.) And of a just sale,
لَا

شَطَطَ, (S,) or
وَلَا

There is no deficiency in it
nor excess.] And it is said in the Kur [lxxii. 13],
فَلَا
يَخَافُ
بَخْسًا
وَلَا
رَهَقًا He shall not fear diminution of the
reward of his actions,
nor wrong, or
injustice. (TA.) And in this sense, [as also in the
next,] the verb is doubly trans. (Msb.) You say,
بَخَسَهُ
حَقَّهُ He diminished to him his right, or
due; deprived him, or
defrauded him, of a part of
it. (S, A.) And it is said in the Kur [vii. 83 and
xi. 86 and xxvi. 183],
وَلَا
تَبْخَسُوا

أَشْيَآءَهُمْ [
And ye shall not diminish unto men
their things]: (Msb:) or the verb in this instance
has the signification next following. (TA.) ― -b2-

defective, price: (S, * Msb, * TA:) or
for a
price less than was incumbent: or
for an
insufficient price: or
for an unjust price;

found is unlawful. (TA.) -A2-
Land that produces
herbage without being [
artificially]
watered: (JK, S, K:) or
land which is watered by
the rain; because it has deficient watering: (Mgh:)
pl.
بُخُوسٌ. (JK, TA.) ― -b2- Also, (TA, as from
Ibn-Málik,) or ↓
بَخْسِىٌّ , [which is more probably the correct
form,] a rel. n. from
بَخْسٌ in the sense immediately preceding, explained
in the T as signifying, (Mgh,) Seed-produce
that is
not irrigated with water from a spring or well or the
like, but only by the rain. (Mgh, and TA from

بَاخِسٌ
باخس Any one
who acts wrongfully, or
unjustly. (TA.) It is said in a prov.,
تَحْسِبُهَا
حَمْقَآءَ
وَ
هِىَ
بَاخِسٌ; (S, A, K;) so runs the prov.; but accord.
to Th, (S,) you may also say
بَاخِسَةٌ; (S, K;) i. e., [
Thou thinkest her
stupid,]
but she is wrongful, or
unjust:
applied to him who feigns himself to be of weak
understanding when he is crafty and cunning. (K, TA.)
The origin of the prov. was this: a man of the Benu-l-'
Ambar, of Temeem, mixed his property with that of a
woman, coveting the possession of it, and thinking that
she was stupid, and that she did not take care of her
property nor know it: then he made a division with her,
after he had mixed; but she was not content with the
division until she took her property: she complained of
him to those in authority, so that he released himself
from her by giving her what she desired of the property:
and the man was reproved for his conduct; it being said
to him, “ Thou cheatest a woman: is not this wrongful
conduct (
بَخْس)?
” whereupon he replied in the words above, which became
a proverb. (Th, K, * TA.) Credit:
