Etymology
Arabic فَوْز is the verbal noun of the verb فازَ (fāza), meaning to win or to attain. It comes from the Semitic root f-w-z, which joins the senses of winning, escaping danger, and reaching a goal. The word is frequent in the Quran, where الفوز العظيم means the supreme triumph. It has no connection to any Indo-European word.
