The term pandemic is one of the borrowed terms for the new epidemic, as the Arabs did not use it to denote the epidemic. It can be considered a novel and borrowed scientific term. It does not apply to the significance of the epidemic, plague, or outbreaks in Arabic dictionaries and the books that have been dealt with in the Arab heritage. And because it includes messages, the most important of which is that the world will change after this pandemic. And because the new epidemic will afflict and invade the global economy or economy, it was borrowed from the epidemic. In this sense, it corresponds to its significance in the Arab heritage.
