Origins of Kufr

Kufr in Arabic stems from the darkness of the night, representing covering something or hiding it, like concealing items in a hidden place. This act is akin to overshadowing darkness, enveloping and hiding valuable possessions, demonstrating ingratitude and denial when one conceals the favors or truths they know. The term extends to denying any connection to others, disavowing and disconnecting oneself from associations.
