Root: س م و

 

Words from this Root in the Grand Qur'aan:

a) Total occurrences: 381

b) No of constructions: 33

               The basic perception of the Root is the name of a thing and person. The name is the code which gives the basic cognition of existence and presence of a thing and person. Hence name is the introduction for apparent recognition of a thing and person. Cognition of the code/name of a thing or person is the elementary/first step in gaining knowledge about the thing or person. Name of a thing or person gives it or him a vivid distinction from all other things and persons/makes it or him distinguished/identified/definite [معرفة] and grants an ability to others to identify and describe/ remember/recall/mention it or him. The name/code serves as a basis/foundation for others to enquire and study about it to gain knowledge.

                         The beginning is with the code/name. And this eternal truth/fact is the first information given in the Grand Qur'aan "beginning is with the name/code".

                       The physical presence of a thing before the eyes does not yield knowledge if you do not know their names since it does not give you the ability to describe them individually because of lack of fundamental, prerequisite/first stage of knowledge i.e. cognition of the code/name. Nothing can be preserved/saved in the memory [of humans as well the computer] until and unless a code/ name is given to it. The second occurrence of this Root with its original perception has further unfolded the importance of name/code of things and persons in quite lucid manner.

And He taught Adam the particular/peculiar names [of things], all of them.

Thereafter He placed those things before the angels;

o

 then/for reason He said, "Tell Me the names of these, if you are truthful [about your saying about Adam]" [2:31]

They said, "Glory is for You; We don't have the knowledge; we know only what You have taught us" [Refer 2:32]

The angles had given their opinion/observation with regard to human's future conduct when they were told that Adam is being given freedom on Earth. It was  merely an opinion/presumption not based on complete knowledge. After making Adam know the names of all things the same were presented before the Angles and were asked to name them to prove that whatever they had opined was based on comprehensive knowledge. Truthful is only he who makes a statement based on complete knowledge; a statement based on incomplete information/data does not rise to the level of truth; it is merely an opinion not worthy to be treated as truth at the given point of time. But at the same time it is not a lie since it is based on some data/information and is not merely an imaginative assertion. The opinion would prove either to be correct or wrong only at a point in time later than it was expressed when further data/information/conduct becomes visible. That is why scientists do not lie, they opine whereas philosophers do lie when they base study on a presumption/imagination/myth. Scientists never waste the time of humanity; philosophers and pseudo intellectuals do.

                   Despite the fact that the dimensions of the things were manifestly evident to their eyes they expressed their lack of knowledge about the same. The only reason is that they did not have the cognition of the code of those things and therefore were unable to distinguish and describe them individually. This reflects that mere presence/visibility of things does not constitute "knowledge". If one does not know the code/name of the thing its visibility is meaningless for him. "Knowledge" is that when one knows the code of the thing which is within the reach of his visibility/focus/vision. Anything coming into vision could be saved in memory only and only if it is assigned a name/code. The name/code is for the faculty of listening and the appearance/shape/dimensions of the things is for vision. Listening and vision constitute a "pair" for knowledge. A code of a thing enables a man to perceive the thing in his vision [in metaphorical meanings of بصر]. In Qur'aan the faculty of listening is mentioned first then the faculty of vision [seeing]. Without the code/name, the existence of anything and concept cannot be accepted, it is non existing.  And without existence of a thing/matter or person in actual reality any name/code assigned for such imaginative thing/existence is of no significance and is merely meaningless utterances of the mouth [أَفْوَاهِهِمْ].

                    The code/name and physical presence/existence of the things are, for the listening and vision of human beings, bits of information/data. If only one thing comes into the vision of a human being then can it get printed/saved in his memory? For answering this simple question we need not be specialists in psychology, nerves and brain. The answer is in negative. The saving/retention of information about the dimensions and code of a thing in the memory is possible only and is obliged to existence of more than one thing enabling comparative study/observation of those. The comparative study and the information about the variations, differences, measures, and relationships is the primary reason which enables their saving and preservation in the memory. The variation, difference, and relationship are at least between the two.

And in each and everything We have created pairs

o

so that you people could save/preserve [and remember and recall for narrating]. [51:49]

Let us reflect for a second that had everything of the universe not been in pairs were it possible for us what to say of gaining knowledge and admonishment even to talk and narrate?

          Reverting back to perhaps the most knowledge giving dramatic scene of Adam and the Angels, is the visibility and knowing the code of a thing constitute what is called knowledge? Things should never be left in a state where one could speculate negatively or get into some confusion. Things were made clear to the Angels and it was also elaborated what is the second step to consider something as knowledge.

He said, "O Adam! tell them, make them aware/knowledgeable with the names of these things".

In compliance, when he had told them the names of those things; [Refer 2:33]

               This indicates that identification of the things is what is called knowledge. The identification is in fact the ability of [تميز] segregating and making a distinction from others and narrating it by its specific code/name.

                Allah, The Knowledgeable au fait of all niceties and delicacies/subtlety/refinements gave to the Last Messenger [Muhammad Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam]

And indeed We have since given you, the Messenger [Muhammad Sal'lallaa'hoalaih'wa'salam]

seven [feminine, Aa'ya'at] from the "binary" book

o

i.e./and the Grand Qur'aan. [15:87]

The begins with i.e. "beginning is with the name/code" and begins with showing that beginning of the book is with letters and signs of the language and subtly reflects that creation of everything and recording of its details in the book were simultaneous, one single moment. Creation and coding go side by side. Those who keep trying to find the roots/origin of Arabic Language will have to cover the distance up to the first moment of creation.

              The specific name grants distinction and recognition and eminence and thus makes it conspicuous and prominent. It elevates the thing from others. And this Root has been used to name a thing which has the reflection of the perception and its effect, i.e. the Sky.
