The Qurʾānic term الْعَـٰلَمِينَ (al-ʿālamīnᵃ, pl. "worlds, nations, beings"), as observed in Q6:45, is derived from the singular form عٰلَم (ʿālam) and has cognates in various Semitic languages. Let's explore their usage! #comparative_etymology

Regarding the Jewish Nabeto-Arabic inscription above, it's worth noting that the written form ʿlmʾ does not allow us to identify the word as singular or plural. In that perspective, it could be read as "worlds," possibly a distinctive periphrasis used by the Ḥijāzī Jews
