Description

The Arabic root نوب (n-w-b) carries the core meaning of turning, returning, or alternating between states, often with the connotation of repeatedly coming back to something. In the Quranic context, it most significantly appears in derivatives like "anāba" (to turn in repentance) and "awwāb" (one who frequently turns back to God), emphasizing the spiritual concept of repentance and constant return to divine guidance. This root underscores a central Quranic theme of human responsiveness to God through repeated acts of turning back in devotion, contrition, and worship, as well as describing the alternation of natural phenomena like day and night as signs of divine control.
