    Peace,

    this is apparently, according to quranic arabic corpus from the root alif/hamza meem meem, not alif meem noon, which is where ameen or amen you are thinking of come from.

    though, it is something to look into, as i am not very familiar with this root, but from it, if it is indeed a-m-m derives things like mother, nation, etc.

    check out the quranic arabic corpus if you are usure on something corpus.quran.com and then verify against the context of it in the quran, its root, with prl online, mawlrid reader, or lexicons etc, and also check out the form it takes, in grammar reference books etc.. all this material is easily avaliable online.

    Peace

        Many people say Ameen is not Arabic then what is it doing in chapter 5 verse 2 ? If someone knows Arabic please respond.

        This word is from root Alif-Miim-Miim, and is plural noun in Accusative case "" is irrab.

          Amen is from the root Meem-Nun-Nun, not Alef-Meem-Meem. The common (min) word has the same root. It is 100% Arabic. Its morphological meaning is "(to) Be Of Integrity", i.e. confident.

            The word has root from which words like and are derived. It gives meanings of peace and security like a child in mother's lap.

            Peace

              Well, they are related because Arabic words that have similar letters obviously also mean something "along the lines" as Semitic letters have innate letter meanings. But Amin is still closer to how you say Min than Amm . Amm, "letter by letter", means "Be From" while says "From Integrity", and Amin and means "Be From/Of Integrity" connoting confidence/security.

              It is right however that both and have a clear connection to each other. connotes your origin/kindred while is about your integrity as a person.

                  "Ameen" is the Arabic version of the Hebrew Amein/Amen, which appears in the Bible and is often uttered at the end of Jewish and Christian prayers. I say Amen at the end of prayers because I grew up believing it to be proper. And there's no evidence in the Quran (as far as I know) to either command or contradict this practice. For people like me, it's cultural.

                    It means that you have confidence in what you just prayed. You are sure. It is the meaning of the word.

                    It could be seen as meaning "it will be so", that you have faith in its realization.

                      ameen is NOT mentioned in The Quran.
                      ameen/amen is amen-ra an egyptian sun deity aka a jinn.
                      thus by saying ameen your committing a shirk. most muslims are unknowingly saying it

                      7218 The mosques belong to Allah; you shall not invoke anyone else besides Allah

                        Amen is mentioned in Quran, many times. One example is "amen b'Allah". It is a word of the language and functions as such. And you can use it for what it means, i.e. to say you have confidence in something.
