📖 Lane's Lexicon (Root: ركض)

[1] رَكَضَ , aor. رَكُضَ , inf. n. رَكْضٌ, He moved, (S, A, K,) or struck with, (Msb,) his leg, or foot: (S, A, Msb, K:) or he struck and hit therewith, like as one strikes and hits therewith a beast. (IAth.) Hence, (S, A, K,) the phrase in the Kur [xxxviii. 41], (S,) اُرْكُضْ بِرِجْلِكَ [Strike thou the ground with thy foot]: (S, A, K:) or strike thou, and tread, the ground with thy foot. (Sgh.) You say also, رَكَضَ الرَّجُلُ (tropical:) The man struck the ground with his foot: and رَكَضَتِ الخَيْلُ (tropical:) The horses struck the ground with their hoofs: and جَآءَتِ الخَيْلُ رَكْضًا (tropical:) [The horses came striking the ground with their hoofs]: and رَكَضَتِ الجُنْدَبُ الرَّمْضَآءَ بِكُرَاعَيْهَا (tropical:) [The locusts termed جندب struck the vehemently-hot ground with their two legs]: and تَرَكْتُهُ يَرْكُضُ بِرِجْلِهِ لِلْمَوْتِ (tropical:) [I left him striking the ground with his foot previously to death: see also 8]. (A.) [The above-mentioned phrases marked as tropical are so marked on the authority of the A: but the reason of their being so I do not see.] ― 2-b2- They also said, sometimes, رَكَضَ الطَّائِرُ, meaning (assumed tropical:) The bird moved his wings in flying: (S:) the inf. n., رَكْضٌ, signifying (tropical:) the act of moving the wing: (K, TA:) and الطَّائرُ يَرْكُضُ بِجَنَاحَيْهِ (tropical:) The bird moves his wings, and puts them back against his body: (A, TA:) or the former of these two phrases means (assumed tropical:) the bird was quick, or swift, in his flying. (TA.) ― 2-b3- رَكْضٌ also signifies The act of impelling; syn. دَفْعٌ: and the urging a horse to run, (A, K, TA,) [by striking] with his foot or leg: (TA:) the striking a beast with one's feet or legs, to urge him: (Mgh:) or putting him in motion, whether he go on or not. (As.) You say, رَكَضْتُ الفَرَسَ بِرِجْلِى I urged the horse to run, with my foot or leg. (S, O, Msb. *) And رَكَضَ الدَّابَّةَ, aor. رَكُضَ , inf. n. رَكْضٌ, He struck the sides of the beast with his foot or leg. (TA.) And رَكَضَ الدَّابَّةَ بِرِجْلٍ, and بِرِجْلَيْنِ, He struck the beast to urge it with a foot or leg, and with two feet or legs. (A.) ― 2-b4- And from frequency of usage of the phrase رَكَضْتُ الفَرَسَ, originated the saying رَكَضَ الفَرَسُ, (AZ, * S, Mgh, Msb,) meaning (tropical:) The horse ran: (S, Mgh: *) which some disallow; but without reason, since it has been transmitted by a good authority: (Msb:) it is disallowed by As: (TA:) [and J says,] the correct phrase is رُكِضَ الفَرَسُ: (S:) or you say, رُكِضَ الفَرَسُ فَرَكَضَ هُوَ, meaning [The horse was urged to run,] (assumed tropical:) and he ran: (K:) and رَكْضٌ signifies (assumed tropical:) the act of running: (K, in another place in this art.:) and (assumed tropical:) the act of fleeing: whence, [in the Kur xxi. 12], إِذَا هُمْ مِنْهَا يَرْكُضُونَ (K) (assumed tropical:) lo, they fled from it, from punishment: (Zj:) or (assumed tropical:) were routed, and fled from it: (Fr:) or they ran from it: (Mgh:) [for] رَكَضَ الرَّجُلُ signifies (assumed tropical:) The man fled, and (assumed tropical:) ran. (ISh.) [Hence,] رَكَضَتِ النُّجُومُ فِى السَّمَآءِ (tropical:) The stars moved along in the sky. (A, TA.) [And hence,] رَكْضٌ also signifies (assumed tropical:) A man's going along by both his legs together. (TA.) ― 2-b5- You also say, رَكَضَهُ البَعِيرُ (S, A, Msb) (tropical:) The camel struck him with his kind leg: (S, Msb:) like as you say, رَمَحَهُ الفَرَسُ: (A, Msb: *) but you should not say, [when a camel is the agent,] رَمَحَهُ. (Yaakoob, S.) And رَكَضَ الأَرْضَ, and الثَّوْبَ, (assumed tropical:) He struck the ground, and the garment, or piece of cloth, with his foot or leg. (TA.) And المَرْأَةُ تَرْكُضُ ذُيُولَهَا وَخَلْخَالَهَا بِرِجْلَيْهَا إِذَا مَشَتْ (tropical:) [The woman kicks her skirts and her anklets with her feet when she walks]. (A, TA.) ― 2-b6- And رَكَضَتِ القَوْسُ السَّهْمَ (tropical:) The bow propelled the arrow. (A, TA.) ― 2-b7- And رَكَضْتُ القَوْسَ (tropical:) I shot with the bow. (A, TA.) ― 2-b8- And هُوَ لَا يَرْكُضُ المِحْجَنَ (assumed tropical:) He does not defend himself: (K:) or (assumed tropical:) he is not angry and vexed at a thing, nor does he defend himself. (IAar, L.) ― 2-b9- And رَكَضَ النَّارَ بَالمِرْكَضِ (tropical:) [He stirred the fire with the مَركَض]. (A.)
