Qur'an at various places says that the Earth and Heaven were created in six days, the part that mentions Kun Fayakun goes something like 'When He decrees a thing, He says to it only: "Be!" And it is.
It's is an Arabic word in the Qur'an. Allah commands the universe to be ("kun!"), and it is ("fayakun").
The verse is from Surah Ya-Sin. The context in which the verse Kun Fa Ya Kun appears in the 36th Chapter, verse number 77-83 which is referring to the act of manifesting, existing or being.
Does man not consider that We created him from a sperm-drop - then at once he is an open disputant? And he presents an (argument of) likeness for Us and forgets his own creation. He asks (in confusion): "Who will give life to the bones when they are disintegrated?" Say: "He will give life to them Who brought them into existence at first, and He is cognizant of all creation." He Who has made for you, from the green tree, fire. and then from it you kindle (fire). Is not He Who created the heavens and the earth able to create the like of them? Yes Indeed! and He is the Superb Creator (of all), the Ever-Knowing. Surely His Command, when He wills a thing, is only to say to it: Be! and it is!" Therefore glory be to Him in Whose hand is the Kingdom of all things, and to Him you shall be brought back.
The term also appears as part of 117th verse of the 2nd Chapter Surah Baqara. (Allah,) The Originator of the heavens and the earth. When He decrees a matter, He only says to it, "Be," and it is.
Also the song says jab kahin pe kuch nahi bhi nahi tha, vahi tha vahi tha, that is, when there was not even nothing, He alone was there.
This is what I have been able to find at this given point of time.
Your suggestions/discussions are welcome.
