From Edward William Lane, An Arabic-English Lexicon (1863–1893), under the root وأد. Digitised by the Perseus Project (Tufts); Arabic decoded from Perseus's transliteration.

وَأَدَ , aor. يَيءِدُ , (inf. n. وَأْدٌ , S, L, &c.) He buried his daughter alive (S, L, Msb, K) in the grave, (S, L,) and put a load of earth upon her. (A.) It was customary for a man in the time of paganism, when a daughter was born to him, to bury her alive when her mother brought her forth, from fear of reproach and want: but this is forbidden in the Kur. xvii. 33: and some of them used to bury their children alive in times of famine: (L:) the tribe of Kindeh used to bury their daughters alive. (S, L.) ― -b2- الوَأْدُ الخَفِىُّ a term used in a trad. as meaning Extractio penis tempore concubitus, ne conciperet femina: as also الصُّغْرَى ↓ المَوْوءُودَةُ because this act resembles that of burying a child alive, and is done with the same motive. (L.)
