Full Meaning of Kenz

Kenz is an direct Quranic name for boys that means “treasure”. It is derived from the K-N-Z root which is used seven times in the Quran.

And as for the wall, it belonged to two orphan boys in the city, and there was beneath it a treasure for them, and their father had been righteous. So your Lord intended that they reach maturity and extract their treasure, as a mercy from your Lord. And I did it not of my own accord. That is the interpretation of that about which you could not have patience. (Quran 18:82)
