kh-b-r

Description

The Arabic root خبر (kh-b-r) carries the core meaning of knowledge gained through experience, information, or awareness of hidden realities. In the Quran, it appears most frequently as one of Allah's divine attributes (al-Khabīr - the All-Aware), emphasizing His complete and intimate knowledge of all things, both apparent and concealed, including the innermost thoughts and deeds of His creation. This root underscores the theological concept that nothing escapes Allah's awareness, serving as both a comfort to believers and a warning that all actions are known to Him.
