Description

The Arabic root سلط (s-l-t) in the Quran carries the core meaning of authority, power, or dominion, often referring to the ability to control, overpower, or have compelling proof over something or someone. In Quranic usage, it frequently appears in contexts denying false deities any real authority over believers, describing Satan's limited power over people, or demanding evidence and proof for religious claims. The root emphasizes the distinction between legitimate divine authority and illegitimate claims to power, making it theologically significant for establishing that ultimate sovereignty belongs only to God while exposing the baselessness of polytheistic beliefs and demonic influence.
