Etymology 1

From the root ح ق ق (ḥ-q-q). Compare Hebrew חוק (ḥóqq, “law”), Classical Syriac ܚܘܩܐ (ḥuqqā, “rule”), Ge'ez ሐቀቀ (ḥäḳäḳä, “to fasten”), Tigrinya ሓቂ (ḥaqqi, “truth”). Perhaps related to حَجَّ (ḥajja, “to convince with legal arguments; to make the pilgrimage to Mecca”) and words corresponding to this root in the other Semitic languages.

    • 609–632 CE, Qur'an, 16:36:
      وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَّسُولًا أَنِ ٱعْبُدُوٱ ٱللَّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُوٱ الطَّاغُوتَ فَمِنْهُم مَّنْ هَدَى اللَّهُ وَمِنْهُم مَّنْ حَقَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الضَّلَالَةُ فَسِيرُوٱ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَٱنْظُرُوٱ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَاقِبَةُ الْمُكَذِّبِينَ
      walaqad baʕaṯnā fī kulli ʔummatin rrasūlan ʔani ʕbudū l-laha wājtanibū ṭ-ṭāḡūta faminhum mman hadā l-lahu waminhum mman ḥaqqat ʕalayhi ḍ-ḍalālatu fasīrū fī l-ʔarḍi fanẓurū kayfa kāna ʕāqibatu l-mukaḏḏibīna
      And we certainly sent into every nation a messenger “worship God and avoid the idol”. And among them were those whom God guided, and among them were those upon whom error was deservedly enacted. So proceed through the earth and see how was the end of the deniers.
  5. to be due
