Its root in the classical dictionaries

الكفر في اللغة: ستر الشيء، ووصف الليل بالكافر لستره الأشخاص، والزراع لستره البذر في الأرض، وليس ذلك باسم لهما كما قال بعض أهل اللغة لما سمع:387-ألقت ذكاء يمينها في كافر

المفردات في غريب القرآن — الراغب الأصفهاني

قوله تعالى: ﴿إن الذين كفروا﴾ [آل عمران: 4]. الكفر أصله التغطية والستر. وسمي الكافر الشرعي كافرا لأنه ستر الحق وغطى عليه. وسمي الليل كافرا لستره الأشياء بظلامه. وأنشد لثعلبة: [من الكامل]

  1. Each word opens its meaning.

    O ye who believe! When there come to you Believing women refugees, Examine (and test) them: God knows best as to Their Faith: if ye ascertain That they are Believers, Then send them not back To the Unbelievers. They are not lawful (wives) For the Unbelievers, nor are The (Unbelievers) lawful (husbands) For them. But pay The Unbelievers what they Have spent (on their dower). And there will be no blame On you if ye marry them On payment of their dower To them. But hold not To the guardianship of Unbelieving women: ask For what ye have spent On their dowers, and let The (Unbelievers) ask for What they have spent (On the dowers of women Who come over to you). Such is the command Of God: He judges (With justice) between you. And God is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom.

    Surah Al-Mumtahanah, verse 60:10
