Etymology 3
editUncertain. Hisham ibn al-Kalbi claims he had only heard the term from Yathrib and the Jews, therefore suggesting that the word is borrowed from Hebrew. He argues that because the Arabic root ل ي ن (l-y-n) is not related to the term’s meaning, he claims that the term cannot be derived from Arabic. However those Jews were monolingual Arabic speakers and no such Hebrew term is known, and some Islamic scholars contend the nativity of the word stating that the palm tree produces tender dates.
