نقذ

, from El-Mufaddal.)

أَمْرٌ أُنُفٌ (assumed tropical:) An event brought to pass at the first, not being before decreed: (K, TA:) according to those who assert that there is no decreeing [by God]. (TA.)

مِشْيَةٌ أُنُفٌ (assumed tropical:) A goodly [as though novel] gait, or manner of walking. (Ibn-'Abbád, K.)

اتِيكَ مِنْ ذِى أُنُفٍ is like the phrase مِنْ ذِى قَبَلٍ; i. e., فِيمَا يُسْتَقْبَلٌ [I will come to thee in what is (now) to be begun (of time); meaning, immediately; nearly the same as انِفًا, but relating to the nearest future time, whereas this latter relates to the nearest past time]. (S, K.) And أَفْعَلُ ذَاكَ مِنْ ذِى أُنُفٍ: i. e., ↓ فِيمَا يُسْتَأْنَفُ [I will do that in what is (now) to begun &c.]; like مِنْ ذِى عَوْضٍ. (K in article عوض.)
