(Msb.) The phrase لَا يَفْضُضِ اللّٰهُ فَاكَ, (S, A.) meaning May God not break thy teeth, (TA,) occurs in a trad.: (S, A:) and J says. (TA,) you should not say ↓ يُفْضِض ; (S, TA; [but in one copy of the S, I find يَفْضِض;]) though some allow it: and some say that إِِفْضَاء [evidently a mistake for إِِفْضَاض] means the falling out of the teeth from above and below; but the former explanation is the more common.

(O, TA.) The verb, thus used, occurs in a trad., but, as some relate it, with ق and ب [i. e. saying تَقْبِضُ instead of تَفْتَضُّ]; and Az mentions that EshSháfi'ee related this trad.
