مِعْزَالٌ

A pastor who goes apart, or aside, with his cattle, and pastures them in a place remote, or separate, from men, or the people: (S, O:) or a pastor apart from others (K, TA) with his camels depasturing the herbage not previously pastured upon and seeking successively the places where rain had fallen: in this sense not an epithet of discommendation, for the doing thus is an act of the courageous and valiant of men: (TA:) plural مَعَازِيلُ. (S.)

And One who alights apart, or aloof, from the company of travellers; (K, TA; [من السَّفَرِ in the CK should be مِنَ السَّفْرِ;]) who alights by himself; in which sense it is an epithet of discommendation. (TA.)

And One who separates himself from the players at the game called المَيْسِر, by reason of meanness. (S, O, K.)

And One who is alone in his opinion, having no one to share with him in it. (TA.)
