Different spellings and forms of Fawz across languages
While the exact word 'Fawz' (فَوْز) meaning victory and success appears throughout the Quran in various contexts, it is most prominently referenced in passages discussing spiritual triumph, divine success, and ultimate salvation. The root F-W-Z appears in multiple surahs in different forms, consistently conveying the concept of winning, succeeding, and achieving victory through faith and righteous action. The Quranic usage emphasizes that true fawz (success) comes from obedience to Allah, avoidance of shirk (associating partners with Allah), and performing righteous deeds. The concept is central to Islamic theology, as success in the Hereafter is the ultimate goal and the greatest form of fawz.
فَمَن كَانَ يَرْجُو لِقَاءَ رَبِّهِ فَلْيَعْمَلْ عَمَلًا صَالِحًا وَلَا يُشْرِكْ بِعِبَادَةِ رَبِّهِ أَحَدًا

قُل لَّا أَمْلِكُ لِنَفْسِي نَفْعًا وَلَا ضَرًّا إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ وَلَوْ كُنتُ أَعْلَمُ الْغَيْبَ لَاسْتَكْثَرْتُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ وَمَا مَسَّنِيَ السُّوءُ
“Say, 'I do not possess for myself any harm or benefit except what Allah wills. And if I knew the unseen, I could have acquired much wealth and no harm would have touched me.'”
وَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ فَفِي رَوْضَاتِ الْجَنَّاتِ ۖ نُزُلًا بِمَا كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ
