Greetings! Peace and Prosperity!

In the light of truth & balance relaying of message. The word MUSLIM is MU and SLIM where SLIM is SLM in Arabic it is SALAM as read, that it means peace in total submission of an individual who knows ALLAHu ta'Ala (the one eternal GOD) to HIS mighty Will. He (Muslim) enjoins what it is good (if he knows the law and commandments of his GOD) and forbids what is evil. Then Jihad is to strive in keeping with the guidelines of ISLAM (the deen [way of life] of the one and only true GOD - ALLAHu ta'Ala) primarily with self then to the participation of the concesual battles of the pious groups.
