r-gh-m

Description

The Arabic root رغم (r-gh-m) in the Quran conveys the core meaning of humiliation, subjugation, or being forced into submission against one's will, often despite resistance or reluctance. It appears in contexts describing those who are compelled to accept a state of defeat or lowliness, particularly in reference to subdued adversaries or those brought low. This root emphasizes the concept of unwilling submission and carries connotations of disgrace, making it significant in Quranic passages dealing with the fate of those who oppose divine truth or the believers.
