Muslim
The term "Muslim" does not appear in the Bible, as Islam was founded in the 7th century AD, long after the texts of the Bible were completed. The word "Muslim" itself comes from the Arabic root "s-l-m," which means "to submit" or "to surrender," in the context of submitting to the will of Allah (God). In Islamic belief, a Muslim is someone who submits to the teachings of Islam as conveyed by the Prophet Muhammad, adhering to the Five Pillars of Islam and the Quran.In the context of the Bible, discussions of other faiths or peoples may include references to those outside of the Jewish and Christian traditions, such as the Gentiles or pagans, but these do not specifically reference Muslims or Islam. The Bible focuses primarily on the covenant relationship between God and Israel, as well as the teachings of Jesus Christ and the early Church. Thus, while the Bible does not mention Muslims, understanding the term within its historical and theological context helps clarify the distinctions between the two faiths.
