Description

The Arabic root س-ك-ن (s-k-n) carries the core meaning of stillness, tranquility, and dwelling, encompassing both physical rest and psychological peace. In the Quran, it appears in contexts ranging from the night as a time for rest, to spouses providing emotional tranquility to one another, to dwellings as places of security and stability. This root emphasizes the divine provision of peace and settledness in multiple dimensions of human life—temporal, relational, and spiritual—reflecting Allah's mercy in creating systems that allow humans to find repose from motion and anxiety.
