One says, in reviling, (S, TA,) but not when the object is a female, (TA,) أَبْعَدَ اَللّٰهُ الأَخِرَ, (Th, S, A, &c.,) and ↓ الآخِرَ (M, &c.,) or this latter is wrong, (Meshárik of 'Iyád, Mgh, Msb,) as is also ↓ الآخَرَ, (Meshárik of 'Iyád,) meaning (tropical:)  May God alienate, or estrange, from good, or prosperity, or may God curse, him who is absent from us, (A, Msb, TA,) distant, or remote: (A, Msb:) or the outcast; the alienated: (Msb:) or him who is put back, and cast away: so says Sh: or, accord. to ISh, him who is put back, and remote from good: and he adds, I think that ↓ الأَخِير is meant: (L:) or the base fellow : or the most ignoble: or the miserable wretch: (Et-Tedmuree and others:) or the last speaker: (Nawádir of Th:) or الاخر is here a metonymy for the devil: (Lb:) it is a word used [for the reason explained voce أَبْعَدُ] in relating what has been said by one of two persons cursing each other, to the other; (Expositions of the Fs;) and the phrase above mentioned is meant to imply a prayer for those who are present [by its contrasting them with the person to whom it directly applies]. (A.) One also says, لَا مَرْحَبًا بِالْأَخِرِ, [alluding to a particular person,] meaning [May the place, or land, not be ample, or spacious, or roomy,] to the remote from good. (TA.)

(Msb.) And in another trad. it is said, المَسْأَلَةُ أَخِرُ كَسْبِ المَرْءِ Begging is the most ignoble [mode of] gain of man: but El-Khattábee relates it with medd, [i. e. ↓ آخِرُ,] explaining it as meaning begging is the last thing whereby man seeks sustenance when unable to gain [by other means].

(S.) آخَرُ a subst., of the measure أَفْعَلُ, but implying the meaning of an epithet, (S,) from أَخَّرَ in the sense of تَأَخَّرَ, (TA,) Another; the other; a thing [or person] other than the former or first; (L;) i. q. غَيْرٌ; (K;) as in the phrases, رَجُلٌ آخَرُ another man, and ثَوْبٌ آخَرُ another garment or piece of cloth: (TA:) or one of two things [or persons]; (S, Sgh, Msb;) as when you say, جَآءَ القَوْمُ فَوَاحِدٌ يَفْعَلُ كَذَا وَآخَرُ كَذَا The people came, and one was doing thus, and one [i. e. another] thus: (Sgh, Msb:) originally meaning more backward: (TA:) fem. ↓ أُخْرَى (S, Msb, K) and ↓ أُخْرَاةٌ; (K) which latter is not well known: (MF:) pl. masc. آخَرُونَ and أُخَرُ; (S, K;) [the latter irreg. as such;] and, applied to irrational things, أَوَاخِرُ, like as أَفَاضِلُ is pl. of أَفْضَلُ: (Msb:) and pl. fem. إُخْرَيَاتٌ and إُخَرُ; (S, Msb, K;) which latter is imperfectly decl.; for an epithet of the measure أَفْعَلُ which is accompanied by مِنْ has no [dual nor] pl. nor fem. as long as it is indeterminate; but when it has the article ال prefixed to it, or is itself prefixed to another noun which it governs in the gen. case, it has a dual and a pl. and a fem.; but it is not so with آخَرُ; for it has a fem. [and dual] and pl. without مِنْ and without the article ال and without its being prefixed to another noun: you say, مَرَرْتُ بِرَخُلٍ آخَرَ, and بِرِجَالٍ أُخَرَ and آخَرِينَ, and بِاٌمْرَأَةٍ, and بِنِسْوَةٍ [I passed by another man, and by other men, and by another woman, and by other women;] therefore, as it [namely إُخَرُ] is thus made to deviate from its original form, [i. e. آخَرُ, (I' Ak p. 287,) which is of a class of words used, when indeterminate, alike as sing. and dual and pl.,] and is [essentially and originally] an epithet, it is imperfectly decl., though a pl.: but when you name thereby a man, it is perfectly decl., when inderminate, accord. to Akh, or imperfectly decl. accord. to Sb.

(TK in art. جهم.) You say, جَآءِ آخِرًا and ↓ أَخِيرًا and ↓ أُخُرًا and ↓ بِأَخَرَةٍ, all meaning the same [He came lastly, or latterly]: and in like manner, ↓ مَا عَرَفْتُهُ إِلَّا أَخِيرًا and ↓ الّا بِأَخَرَةٍ [I did not know it save at the last, or lastly, or latterly]: (S:) or ↓ جَآءِ أَخِيرًا and ↓ أُخُرًا and ↓ أَخْرَةٌ and ↓ بِأُخْرَةٍ and ↓ أُخَرَةٍ and ↓ بِأُخَرَةٍ (K,) or ↓ أُخْرَةٌ and ↓ بِأُخْرَةٍ (Lh, L,) and بِآخِرَةٍ (TA) and ↓ إِخْرِيَّا and ↓ أُخْرِيَّا and ↓ إِخِرِيَّا and ↓ آخِرِيَّا (K) mean he came lastly of everything.
