s-kh-t

Description

The Arabic root سخط (s-kh-ṭ) conveys the concept of intense anger, wrath, and severe displeasure, particularly divine displeasure in the Quranic context. In the Quran, this root primarily describes Allah's wrath upon those who reject faith, violate His commands, or earn His anger through their disobedience, representing a more intense form of displeasure than the general term for anger (ghaḍab). The term carries significant theological weight as it often describes a state of being subject to divine condemnation, marking a severe spiritual consequence for those who persist in wrongdoing or disbelief.
