why arab called island (jazirah) ?? but he is not an island as we know it

in #blog7 years ago (edited)


haloo friend steemit all in this occasion I will discuss a little bit about the meaning of the Arabian peninsula.

The Arabian peninsula consists of the first two words, the second is Arab.
Jazirah means island, while arab is a tribe that occupies the area.

textually Arabian peninsula is an archipelago ...

how could that be??

whereas the island is a land that is surrounded by oceans. or by the river.

yes it is the one who will insha Allah I will discuss in my writing this time

according to what I know Arab is called the Peninsula for two reasons:

  1. Arab dinamakn peninsula because karna arab is indeed surrounded by the ocean

arab surrounded by red sea, persia bay, there is also a call it arab bay but it's the same aja. and Arab is also limited by the sea of ​​Yemen.

so even though it is not an island as we imagine it is an Arab island
according to the definition of the island.

2.arab in namakan jazirah (island) in arab because it is a settlement that is inhabited by the Arabic-speaking nation. and Arabic Arabic is the language spread around it...coba.. Test
while people around the arab are called ajam. and speak with other than Arabic. then this time the meaning of peninsula is maknawi is a group of places that speak Arabic and surrounded by people who speak other than Arabic....,,
