(Msb.) [And hence, (assumed tropical:)  It wasted away; became consumed, destroyed, exhausted, spent, or expended.] b2:  ذَهَبَ إِلَيْهِ He went, repaired, betook himself, or had recourse, to him, or it. (TA.) And they say also, ذَهَبَ الشَّأْمَ [He went to Syria]; making the verb trans. without a particle; for although الشأم is here a special adv. n., they liken it to a vague locality. (TA.) b3:  ذَهَبَ عَنْهُ He, or it, went from, quitted, relinquished, or left, him, or it.
