ارصدهُ عَلَى كَذَا

He charged him with the watching, or guarding, of such a thing. (L.)

See also 1, in four places.

ارصد لَهُ also signifies (tropical:) He prepared, or made ready, [a person, or thing,] for him, or it; (As, S, A, K;) as an army for battle, and a horse for charging, and property, or money, for the payment of what was due. (A, TA.) You say, أَرْصَدْتُ لَهُ العُقْوبَةَ (tropical:) I prepared for him punishment: properly signifying I put punishment in his road, or way. (L.) And أَرْصَدْتُ لَهُ خَيْرًا and شَرًّا (tropical:) [I prepared for him good and evil]. (A.) إِلَّا أَنْ أُرْصِدَهُ لِدَيْنٍ عَلَىَّ occurs in a tradition [as meaning (tropical:) Unless I prepare it for a debt that I owe]. (S.) And [hence, apparently, as seems to be indicated in the TA,] you say, يُرْصِدُ الزَّكَاةَ فِى صِلَةِ إِخْوَانِهِ (tropical:) He places alms in kind, or good and affectionate and gentle and considerate, treatment of his brethren; [as though meaning he prepares for himself the recompense of alms (ثَوَابَ الزَّكَاةِ, like as one says يَحْتَسِبُ عَمَلَهُ meaning يحتسب ثَوَابَ,) عَمَلِهِ,) in so doing;] reckoning such treatment of them as alms. (TA.)

Also (tropical:) He requited him, or recompensed him, with good, (L, K, TA,) according to the original application, (L, TA,) or with evil, (L, K, TA,) as some apply it. (L, TA.)

And ارصد الحِسَابَ (assumed tropical:) He showed, or cast up, or produced, the reckoning. (MF, from the 'Ináyeh.)
