f-s-l

Description

The Arabic root فصل (f-s-l) carries the core meaning of separation, distinction, and decisive judgment. In the Quran, it primarily refers to God's act of separating truth from falsehood and making clear distinctions, particularly manifested in detailed revelation that clarifies matters and in the Day of Judgment when final separation occurs between believers and disbelievers. This root emphasizes both the clarity of divine communication through detailed exposition and the ultimate decisive moment when all accounts are settled and fates are permanently distinguished.
