What does “Islam” mean? The word الإسلام [Islam] is an infinitive word derived from س ل م [silm] root in if‘al pattern and used as noun and infinitive.

SURAH AL-LAYL (THE NIGHT)
MECCAN PERIOD
Division: 21
1-4I hereby adduce the utter ignorance, light of the revelation; knowledge and
genetic properties that your efforts are indeed diverse and scattered.41
5-7So whoever gives his earnings away will be under the protection of Allah
and whoever testifies the most beautiful, we will facilitate the way to bliss for him.
8-11Those who are misers and whoever assumes himself above any needs and
denies the most beautiful, we will facilitate the way to misery for him. Not will his
wealth save him when he falls headlong into the transformation, devastation/when
he dies.
12Surely, guidance is upon Us only. 13And surely the before and the hereafter
belong to Us.
14-16Therefore I do warn you of a blazing fire in which no one but those who
deny, who turn away, those who are the most unfortunate will burn.
17-21But those who give away their wealth for no favor in return but only to
purify themselves, only for the sake of their Rabb [the Lord, the Cherisher, the
Nurturer, the Sustainer] thus being protected by Allah will be kept away from it.
And indeed they shall be satisfied soon.
(9/92, Al-Layl/1-21)
41 While the “Actual” meaning of the phrase originally mentioned in the Ayah is “By the
night when it covers and wraps, by the day when it shines and by the one who created the male and
the female, your efforts and works are truly in pieces and scattered”, we recommended the
metaphorical meaning.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/009-surahal-laylthenight-140704013246-phpapp01/85/009-surah-allayl-the-night-1-320.jpg)
