Thus we can see that the translation of the Arabic word Masjid, into English becomes mosque. A mosque is a house of prayer, and a place of prostration. It is a building designed and built specifically for the worship of Allah. It is where Muslims stand shoulder to shoulder, united in their love for God and their desire to please Him.
The Arabic term Islam itself is usually translated as submission; submission of desires to the will of God. It comes from the term aslama, which means to surrender or resign oneself. The Arabic word salaam (Ø³ÙØ§Ù) (Peace) has the same root as the word Islam.
