Definition of Lwdh
Al-Lawdh refers to seeking refuge behind something.
The Almighty says: 'Those who slip away surreptitiously' (An-Nur 63), meaning those who hide to escape.
Do not make [your] calling of the Messenger among yourselves as the call of one of you to another. Already Allah knows those of you who slip away, concealed by others. So let those beware who dissent from the Prophet's order, lest fitnah strike them or a painful punishment.
