Description

The Arabic root م-و-ت (m-w-t) carries the core semantic meaning of death, cessation of life, and the transition from the living state to lifelessness. In the Quranic context, this root appears in various grammatical forms to express both physical death and spiritual death (such as the hardening of hearts or disbelief), emphasizing the temporary nature of worldly life and the certainty of mortality as a divine decree. The frequency of this root (165 occurrences) underscores its theological significance in Islamic teaching, where death serves as a reminder of human vulnerability, accountability before God, and the transition to the afterlife, while also highlighting God's absolute power as the One who gives life and causes death.
