1.
The stones of a grave; as also
عُدًى: (KL:) [i. e.] the broad stones with which the [oblong excavation called] لَحْد
is covered over: (AA, TA:) or a thin stone with which a thing is concealed, or covered over; as also
عِدَاءٌ; (K, TA;) the latter written in [a copy of] the M
عَدَاءٌ, like سَحَابٌ; but [the former explanation seems to be the more correct, for] it is added in the K that one thereof is termed
عِدْوٌ; and according to this, the word explained above [or each of the two words explained above] is a plural (TA. [See also عِدْوَةٌ.])
