Description

The Arabic root k-w-n fundamentally conveys the concept of being, existing, or coming into being, making it one of the most philosophically significant roots in the Quran. Its central verb form كان (kana) serves as the primary past tense copula meaning "to be" or "to exist," while the command كن (kun - "Be!") represents Allah's creative power to bring things into existence instantaneously, as famously expressed in the phrase "Be, and it is." This root's extensive use throughout the Quran underscores core theological themes of divine creation, the nature of existence, transformation of states, and the contrast between what was, what is, and what will come to be in both this world and the hereafter.
