2. Detailed Meaning of Islam

Islam is a direct Quranic name for boys that means “submission”, “self-surrender”, and refers to the religion of those who are Muslim. The word Islam is used 8 times in the Quran.

And whomsoever God wills to guide, his bosom He opens wide with willingness towards self-surrender [unto Him]; and whomsoever He wills to let go astray, his bosom He causes to be tight and constricted, as if he were climbing unto the skies: it is thus that God inflicts horror upon those who will not believe. (Quran 6:125)
