(TA.) حَرَضٌ Corruptness in the body, and in the intellect, (Ibn-'Arafeh, A, K,) and (assumed tropical:)  in one's  course of conduct, or tenets. (Ibn-'Arafeh, K.)

(Fr, S, K) and masc. (Fr) and fem.; (Fr, K;) being  originally an inf. n.: (Fr, Msb:) or, like every inf. n. used as an epithet, it is for ذُو followed by the inf. n., and therefore has no dual nor pl. form: (Zj:) but some of the Arabs use ↓ حَارِضٌ as an epithet applied to a male, and ↓ حَارِضَةٌ as applied to a female; and these have duals and pls.: (Fr:) and sometimes حَرَضٌ has pls.; namely أَحْرَاضٌ; (K;) which is also pl. of حَرِضٌ and of حَارِضٌ; or, accord. to the L, it is allowable as a pl. of حَرِضٌ, in the place of the more common pl. حَرِضُونَ; (TA;) and ↓ حُرْضَانِ; (K;) which is more approved; (TA;) and حَرِضَةٌ.
