[It is stated in the TA, among the additions to the K in this art., that one says also, إِنَّهُمْ عَلَى مَا تَرَىلَكِرَامٌ ↓ مِنْ صَدَاعَتِهِمْ app. as meaning (assumed tropical:)  Verily  they, notwithstanding what thou seest of their disunion, are generous: but I think it most probable that صَدَاعَتِهِمْ is a mistranscription for صَدَعَاتِهِمْ.]A2:  [Reiske, as stated by Freytag, explains it as signifying also Camels going swiftly.]صُدَاعٌ (assumed tropical:)  Headache: (S, O, Msb, K:) Er-Rághib  says that it is like a splitting in the head by reason of pain; and is a metaphorical term. (TA.) صَدِيعٌ Either half of a garment, or piece of cloth, (O, K,) that is slit in halves: (O:) and a thing [شَىْءٌ accord. to the copies of the K, but I think that the right reading is شَىْءٍ i. e. “ of a thing,”] that is cloven, or split, or slit, in halves: pl. صُدُعٌ.

And when separation from her appeared, like as appear the cleaving cracks in the surface of the hard and smooth rock]: it may be that ↓ صَدَعَ is syn. with تَصَدَّعَ in some dial. [and that صَوَادِع is pl. of its part. n.]: or this may be an instance of a possessive epithet, meaning having a cleaving. (TA.) هُوَ أَصْدَعُهُمْ بِالصَّوَابِ فِى أَسْرَعِ جَوَابٍ (assumed tropical:)  [app. He is the most effective of them in deciding rightly in a most quick answer].
