Verb

قُمْ • (qum) (form I)

  1. second-person masculine singular active imperative of قَامَ (qāma)

Persian

Persian Wikipedia has an article on:
Wikipedia fa

Etymology

Immediately from Arabic, since the city was founded by Arabs in 685 and because ق (q) does not occur in native Persian words. The 988 book History of Qum offers several etymologies:

  • An Arabic corruption of Classical Persian کومه (kūma, “shed; hut”), since the site of the city was previously used by shepherds for shelter. This may be the most plausible.
  • An Arabic corruption of the nearby Persian village of کوب (kūb).
  • From Arabic قُمْ (qum, “stand up!”, singular imperative of قَامَ (qāma, “to stand up”)), with various religious etymologies (e.g. because the Prophet Muhammad was ordered to "stand up" on the site of the city during his heavenly journey); these are obvious cases of folk etymology.
