اعدى الأَمْرَ
1.
He passed from, or beyond, another, to the thing, or affair: so in the K. (TA.) But in the M it is said, اعداهُ الدَّاءُ signifies The disease passed from another to him. (TA.) And one says أَعْدَى فُلَانٌ فُلَانًا مِنْ خُلُقِهِ, or مِنْ عِلَّةٍ بِهِ, or جَرَبٍ, (S, TA,) i. e. Such a one made somewhat of his natural disposition, or of a disease, or malady, that was in him, or of mange, or scab, to pass [from him] to such a one; [or infected him therewith; (see two exs., in a verse and a hemistich, cited in the first paragraph of article جنى;)] and اعداهُ بِهِ signifies the same: and اعدى صَاحِبَهُ
He made his companion to acquire the like of what was in him. (TA.) And يُعْدِى is said of the mange, or scab, &c., meaning It passes from him that has it to another; (S, K;) and in like manner one says of a disease,
يتعدّى: (Nh, TA:) but it is said in an explanation of a tradition, لَا يُعْدِى شَىْءٌ شَيْيءًا [i. e. A thing (meaning disease) does not pass by its own agency to a thing]. (S, TA.) [Therefore] one says, of the mange, or scab, [or the like,] اعداهُ اللّٰهُ
God made it to pass from him that had it to one that was near to him, so that he became affected therewith. (Msb.)
2.
One says also, of a man, قَدْ
أَعْدَى النَّاسَ بِشَرٍّ
He has made evil, or mischief, to cleave to men. (TA.)

اعداهُ عَلَيْهِ
He aided, or assisted, him, (S, Mgh, Msb, K,) and strengthened him, (K,) against him; (S, Mgh, Msb, K;) and avenged him of him; (S, Msb;) namely, one who had wronged him. (S, Mgh, Msb.) And اعداهُ
He (a judge) heard his accusation against another, and commanded to bring his adversary. (Mgh.)
5.
اعداهُ, (S, Msb, K, TA,) namely, a horse, (S, TA,) and also a man, (TA,) [He made him to run, whether gently or moderately or vehemently: or, as sometimes used,] he made him, (K, TA,) or desired him, (S,) to go the pace termed
حُضْر: (S, K, TA:) or he made him to go a pace nearly the same as that termed
هَرْوَلَة, (Msb, TA,) not so quick, (TA,) or which is not so quick, (Msb,) as that termed
جَرْى: (Msb, TA: [see 1, latter half:]) and
استعداهُ signifies the same. (S.)
