Its root in the classical dictionaries
السكون: ثبوت الشيء بعد تحرك، ويستعمل في الاستيطان نحو: سكن فلان مكان كذا، أي:
قوله تعالى: ﴿لتسكنوا فيه﴾ [يونس: 67] أي تستريحون من التعب، لأن السكون ضد الحركة. والحركة: مظنة التعب لأن فيها انتقالات بالأعضاء وأعمالا بالجوارح، والنهار ظرف ذلك. والليل ظرف الراحة بها والسكون؛ فإنه ثبوت الشيء بعد حركة أو ثبوته من غير نظر إلى حركة سابقة، واستعمل في الاستيطان.

- Each word opens its meaning.
And remember ye said: "O Moses! we cannot endure One kind of food (always); So beseech thy Lord for us To produce for us of what the earth Groweth,—its pot-herbs, and cucumbers, Its garlic, lentils, and onions." He said: "Will ye exchange The better for the worse? Go ye down to any town," And ye shall find what ye want!" They were covered with humiliation And misery; they drew On themselves the wrath of God. This because they went on Rejecting the Signs of God And slaying His Messengers Without just cause. This because they rebelled And went on transgressing.
Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 2:61 - Each word opens its meaning.
Shame is pitched over them (Like a tent) wherever They are found, Except when under a covenant (Of protection) from God And from men; they draw On themselves wrath from God, And pitched over them Is (the tent of) destitution. This because they rejected The Signs of God, and slew The Prophets in defiance of right; This because they rebelled And transgressed beyond bounds.
Surah Ali 'Imran, verse 3:112
