m-w-l

Description

The Arabic root م-و-ل (m-w-l) primarily conveys the concept of wealth, property, and material possessions in the Quran. This root appears in various forms to denote both individual and collective riches, including money, goods, livestock, and other tangible assets that people own or accumulate. In the Quranic context, wealth (māl) is frequently discussed in relation to religious obligations like charity and zakāh, as a test of human character and priorities, and as a temporary worldly provision that should not distract believers from remembering God and the afterlife.
