سَدِمَ
1.
, (S, M, K,) aorist
سَدَمَ
, (K,) verbal noun سَدَمٌ, (S, M, K,) He repented and grieved: (S:) or he was, or became, affected with anxiety: or with anxiety together with repentance: or with wrath, or rage, together with grief. (M, K.) [Hence,] one says, مَا لَهُ هَمٌّ وَلَا سَدَمٌ إِلَّا ذَاكَ [He has no object of anxiety nor of repentance and grief except that: or this saying may be from what next follows]. (S.)

سَدِمَ بِالشَّىْءِ, aorist and verbal noun as above, He desired the thing vehemently, eagerly, greedily, very greedily, or excessively; hankered after it, or coveted it; and he was, or became, devoted, addicted, or attached, to it: (TK:) [but these meanings of the verb are perhaps only inferred from the saying that] السَّدَمُ is synonym with الحِرْصُ: and اللَّهَجُ بِالشَّىْءِ, (M, K, [in the CK اللَّهْجُ,]) and الوُلُوعُ. (TA.) Hence the tradition, مَنْ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا
هَمَّهُ وَسَدَمَهُ جَعَلَ اللّٰهُ فَقْرَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ [To whomsoever the present state of existence is the object of his anxiety and of his eager desire &c., God places his poverty before his eyes]. (TA.)
