and if you were smart enough you would have noticed that I use Arabic/Arabic dictionary as there is no reason for me or for you to let us say consult an Urdu/English dictionary for the meaning of an Urdu word when you have Urdu/Urdu dictionary and if you do not get this much then you need to go and read some real books about translations

So you tell us how come islam is not called Istislam?
