Etymology

The word comes from the Semitic triliteral root w-f-q, which carries the idea of fitting, agreeing, and being suitable. It is the passive participle of the Form II verb وَفَّقَ, meaning to grant success or bring into accord. The sense of success is tied to being made to fit the right path, often understood as granted by God.
