Description

The Arabic root أنث (a-n-th) conveys the core meaning of femininity and female gender, appearing in the Quran primarily to denote female beings in contrast to males. In Quranic contexts, this root is used to describe female offspring, female angels (which pagan Arabs wrongly attributed to Allah), and female animals, often emphasizing biological distinction and correcting false beliefs about gender attribution to the divine. The root carries significance in discussions of inheritance laws, creation pairs, and refuting polytheistic claims about Allah having daughters.
