مَزْجَرَةٌ

[A cause of زَجْر, i. e. chiding, &c.: a noun of the same class as مَبْخَلَةٌ &c.; plural مَزَاجِرُ]. A poet says,

مَنْ كَانَ لَا يَزْعُمُ أَنِّى شَاعِرُ

فَلْيَدْنُ مِنِّى تَنْهَهُ المَزَاجِرُ

i. e. (assumed tropical:) [He who will not assert that I am a poet, let him approach me:] preventing causes forbid him. (TA.) And one says, ذِكْرُ اللّٰهِ مَزْجَرَةٌ لِلشَّيْطَانِ (tropical:) [The remembrance, or the mention, of God is a cause of driving away the devil]. (A, TA.)
