-| Many people have wrongly attempted to equate the word ''Islam'' with peace by showing that ''Islam'', meaning 'submission', shares a root word with ''Salaam'', meaning 'peace'. But if such relationships between the meanings of Arabic words can be created then that would imply that there is a relationship between one of the derivations of the infinitive ''Salama'', meaning the stinging of the snake or tanning the leather, and ''Salam'', meaning peace; a relationship which obviously does not exist.
