The Qur’anic Root ʿ R Ḍ (Ayn R Dad)

Brief Explanation

The root ʿ R Ḍ (Ayn R Dad) is connected with bringing something forward, presenting it, exposing it to view, and placing it in a field of assessment.

In Al-Baqarah 2:31, the presentation before the angels means that what relates to the names was placed before them so the boundary of their knowledge would become clear.
