Economic Terms in the Quran

رِزق

Rizq: Provision, sustenance, livelihood. All forms of sustenance Allah grants. Rizq is always from Allah alone, distributed as He wills.

ثَمَر

Thamar: Fruit, produce, yield. Often refers to agricultural produce or natural resources. Symbol of material blessings, but also a test.

فَضل

Fadl: Grace, bounty, surplus. Refers to Allah’s bounty beyond necessity — wealth, knowledge, victory, etc. Unlike rizq (basic provision), fadl often implies abundance or extra blessings that elevate someone’s condition.
