z-j-j

Description

The Arabic root زجج (z-j-j) carries the core meaning of smoothness, transparency, and polished glass-like surfaces. In the Quran, it appears notably in Surah An-Naml (27:44) where Queen Bilqis mistakes a smooth glass floor for water, symbolizing how deceptive appearances can be and how divine wisdom reveals hidden truths beyond surface perception. This root emphasizes the qualities of clarity and reflective brilliance, often used to describe materials that are both luminous and refined.
