EawajN * and ↓ EiwajN [are inf. ns. of Eawija , q. v., or the latter is a simple subst.; and both, used as simple substs.,] signify Crookedness, curvity, a bending, a winding, wryness, contortion, distortion, or unevenness: (L:) or the former is peculiar to objects of the sight, as bodies; and the latter, to what are not seen, as opinion, and a saying, and religion: or, as some say, the latter is used in both of these cases; but the distinction is more common: (IAth, TA:) AZ makes the same distinction; but adds that some of the Arabs used the latter word in relation to a road: (Msb:) accord. to ISk, (S, O,) the former is in anything erect, (S, O, K,) or in anything that was erect and has inclined, (TA,) as a wall, (S, O, K, TA,) and a stick, (S, O, Msb,) or a staff, (K, TA,) and a spear; (TA;) and the latter, in land, or ground, and in religion, (S, O, Msb, K, TA,) and in means of subsistence: (S, O:) in land, or ground, the latter means unevenness; thus in the Kur xx. 106: in a road, deflection; as also EawajN : in religion, and in natural disposition, corruptness, or deviation from rectitude: (TA:) and EawajN , (S, O, TA, [thus accord. to both of my copies of the S,]) or EiwajN , (accord. to a copy of the A, [which I incline to regard as the right, in consideration of its consistency with explanations here preceding, notwithstanding the apparent preponderance of authority in favour of EawajN ,]) in a man, signifies evilness of natural disposition: (S, A, O: [and so, app., hawajN :]) or EawajN , with fet-h to the E , as an inf. n., signifies the being evil in natural disposition.
