بَحْثَرَ
1.
, [verbal noun بَحْثَرَةٌ,] He took, drew, or pulled, a thing out, or forth; and uncovered it, laid it open, or exposed it; (Abu-l-Jarráh, S, K;) as also بَعْثَرَ. (Abu-l-Jarráh, S.) It is said in the Qur'an, 100:9, according to one reading, بُعْثِرَ
بُحْثِرَ مَا فِى القُبُورِ, [instead of بُعْثِرَ,] meaning [When that which is in the graves is taken forth and uncovered; i. e.,] when the dead are raised to life; synonym بُعِثَ; and it is not improbable that بَحْثَرَ may be composed of بَحَثَ and أَثَرَ [apparently a mistranscription for أَثَارَ], according to the opinion of those who hold that quadriliteral and quinqueliteral words are composed of two. (TA.)
2.
He searched, or sought, for, or after, a thing in the dust or earth, or the like; synonym بَحَثَ [which Ibr D thinks may be a mistake for بَعَثَ: but see بَعْثَرَ]. (L, K, and Bd in c. 9.)
