• عَنْكَب (ʕankab), عَنْكَبَة (ʕankaba), عَنْكَبَاة (ʕankabāh)
• عُكَّاش (ʕukkāš) — uncertain

Parallelling Ancient North Arabian 𐪒𐪌𐪋𐪈𐪉 (ʿnkbt, “spider”). Also found as Hebrew עַכָּבִישׁ (ʿakkābīš, “spider”) and Aramaic עַכָּבִיתָא (ʿakkāḇīṯā) / עַכּוּבִיתָא (ʿakkūḇīṯā, “spider”). For the formation compare Aramaic חִפּוּשִׂיתָא / חִיפּוּשִׂיתָא (ḥippūśīṯā, “beetle”) (source of خُنْفُسَاء (ḵunfusāʔ)). If formed the same, to be juxtaposed with عَكِبَ (ʕakiba, “to have a heavy chin and thick lips; to have the fingers or toes set close together”) and عَكْب (ʕakb, “agile”). This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term.

   • 609–632 CE, Qur'an, 29:41:

     مَثَلُ ٱلَّذِينَ ٱتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ ٱللّٰهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ كَمَثَلِ ٱلْعَنْكَبُوتِ ٱتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ ٱلْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ ٱلْعَنْكَبُوتِ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ

     maṯalu llaḏīna ttaḵaḏū min dūni llāhi ʔawliyāʔa kamaṯali l-ʕankabūti ttaḵaḏat baytan wa-ʔinna ʔawhana l-buyūti la-baytu l-ʕankabūti law kānū yaʕlamūna

     The example of those who take allies other than God is like that of the spider who makes a home. And indeed, the weakest of homes is the home of the spider, if they only knew.

   • 1025, ابن سينا [Avicenna], القانون في الطب [Canon Medicinae]:

     نسج العنكبوت يقطع نزف الدم اذا جعل على الجراحات اذا وضع نسجه على القروح منعها ان يرم اذا طبخ العنكبوت الغليظه النسج الابيض بدهن ورد وقطر في الاذن سكن وجعها وقال بعضهم ان نسج العنكبوت اذا خلط ببعض المراهم ولطخ على خرقه كتان والزفت على الجبهة او الصدغين ابرا من حمى الغب وزعم القوم ان نسج الصنف الذي يكون نسجه كثيفا ابيض اذا شدفي جلد وعلق على العنق او العضه ابرا حمى الغب وقال ديسقوريدوس ابرا من حمى الربع.
