Aaron or Aharon_ Between the Quran and the Jewish Books
The foreign name of Semitic origin in the Quran: either comes Arabized with phonetic alternatives of consonants and vowels; or it comes as it is in its original language, or it is translated and becomes Arabic.
As for it being affected by what affects foreign names of phonetic substitution and distortion; I do not believe that it exists in the Quran, although it is permissible in other languages.
Let us see here which of them is linguistically authentic in terms of structure and composition; The Quranic formula or the one that came in the distorted Jewish books?
The word is originally derived from the mountain ” הר = har ” … As for the ending “ון = wn”, it mostly comes for a transitive description, or for exaggeration “similar to the Arabic weight fa’lan” and is a branch of the first case; and sometimes for diminutive.
So the word Aaron means “mountain = very tough or great in creation” or “mountain in the diminutive”; so where is the hamza in Aaron? Gesenius
tells us about that hamza that he did not find an origin for in the word, so he said that it is an ” auxiliary sound ” = prosthetic , so it is not from the origin of the word! ; And the Quran was more reliable than their Hebrew book, so it put the name in its original state! Someone might come to us and say; Who said that “Aaron” came before? Rather, perhaps the auxiliary sound “hamza” arose with the derivation of the name originally and is not foreign to it! I say no: We have a name that preceded Aaron in an older Amorite formula that shows how the derivation was; And he is “Haran = Haran”, the father of Lot, peace be upon him, “according to Genesis 11:31”; so “Haran” and “Aaron” are identical, except for the difference in the ending between the Amorite and the Canaanite “difference in dialect”. Didn’t they claim that the Qur’an was copied from their book? How is the situation here? .. Note : The hamza of “Aharon” in the Hebrew text is not written in the Arabic translations. …
