(K.) 3 آزاهُ, (S, K,) inf. n. مُؤَازَاةٌ, (Msb in art. حذو, and TA in art. وزى, &c., [though it would seem from the K to be إِيزَآءٌ,]) He (a man, S) was, or became, over against it, or opposite to it; he faced, or fronted, him, or it. (S, * K, * TA in art. وزى.) Accord. to the S, one should not say, وَازَاهُ: but it is said in a trad. respecting the prayer of fear, فَوَازَيْنَا العَدُوَّ, i. e. And we faced, or fronted, the enemy: (TA:) and the inf. n. is مُوَازَاةٌ. (TA in art. وزى.) [Its syn. حَاذَاهُ is more common.]A2:  [Hence مُؤَازَأْق signifying A conformity, a mutual resemblance, or a correspondence, with regard to sound, of two words occurring near together; like اِزْدِوَاجٌ &c.: see art. زوج.]A3:  [Hence, likewise,] آزِاهُ also signifies He contended with him, syn. جَارَاهُ; (K, TA;) and opposed, or withstood, him, syn. قَاوَمَهُ.

Whence the saying in a trad., وَفِرْقَةٌ آزَتِ الْمُلُوكَ فَقَاتَلَتْهُمْ عَلَى دِينِ اللّٰهِ [And a party contended with, and opposed, or withstood, the kings, and fought with them for the religion of God].

You say, هُوَبِإِزَائِهِ He is over against, opposite to, facing, fronting, or in front of, him; syn. بِحِذَائِهِ, (S,) or مُحَاذِيهِ. (Msb.) b2:  [Hence, بِإِزَآئِهِ signifies also Corresponding to it; as when one says,] الأَبْجَلُ عِرْقٌ مِنَ الفَرَسِ وَ البَعِيرِ بِإِزَآءِ الأَكْحَلِ مِنَ الإِنْسَانِ [The ابجل is a vein of the horse and the camel, corresponding to the اكحل of man].

[You say also, وَضَعَ لَفْظًا بِإِزَآءِ مَعْنَّى He applied a word, or phrase, as correspondent to an idea, or a meaning.]A2:  إِزَآءٌ is also applied to a man, and to a woman, and to a number of persons, in senses here following. (TA.) You say, هُوَ إِزَآءُ الأَمْرِ He is the manager, conductor, orderer, regulator, or superintendent, of the affair. (S, Msb, TA.) and in the same sense the word is used by Homeyd, in the phrase إِزَآءُ مَعَاشٍ [The manager, or orderer, of the means of subsistence], applied to a woman. (TA.) And in an instance in which a poet likens the إِزَآء of a watering-trough or tank to the [stinking animal called] ظَرِبَان: (S, TA:) in this case it means The water-drawer [of the trough or tank]. (As, IB, TA.)
