Description

The Arabic root هزأ (h-z-a) carries the core meaning of mockery, ridicule, and scornful derision. In the Quran, it appears predominantly in contexts describing how disbelievers mock the prophets, divine messengers, and revelations, as well as how Allah may subject such mockers to retribution or allow their mockery to rebound upon themselves. This root emphasizes the serious spiritual consequence of treating sacred matters with contempt and illustrates a recurring pattern where those who ridicule divine guidance ultimately face humiliation or punishment.
