The usage of the word "Islam" and "Muslim

shamsul-arefin

peace to all,

Can anyone with firm knowledge on Arabic give some examples of the usage of the word "Islam" and "Muslim" other than from Quran ?

I mean in different context than how its used in Quran....) Few sentences with grammatical reference would be fine..

Thanks

Salam Shams,

Istaslm - to give up/surrender

for example (lyriks from an egyptian hip-hop band)

lama gatli al fursa 'amel haga astaslmt

And when I had the chance to do something, I gave up

Hope that helped you a little bit

This is the Etymology of the words

In Arabic, Islm means "submission" (understood as submission to God) and is described as a Dn or Deen, meaning "way of life" and/or "religion." Etymologically, it is derived from the same root as, for example, Salm meaning "peace" (also a common salutation). The word Muslim is also related to the word Islm and means one who "surrenders" or "submits" to God.

Main meaning is Submission, the PEACE bit is derived from the root - So do you go with root meaning or the main meaning of the word?

Regards,

shamsul-arefin

The word Muslim is also related to the word Islm and means one who "surrenders" or "submits" to God.

Did you add the "To God" part or its part of the word's meaning ?

peace

Peace be upon you,

Main meaning is Submission, the PEACE bit is derived from the root - So do you go with root meaning or the main meaning of the word?

The root should be connected to all of its derivatives. How does Peace relate to submission?

The "to God" part is not in the definition.
