"mislem" meaning in Maltese

See mislem in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈmɪs.lɛm/ Forms: misilmin [plural], misilmiet [archaic, obsolete, plural], misilma [feminine]
Etymology: From Arabic مُسْلِم (muslim, in dialects widely mislim). The word was inherited from Arabic as referring to a group of people with whom the Maltese remained in contact, while islam is a learned borrowing from Italian. Similarly, in other European languages, words for “Muslim” (like English Mussulman) are generally much older than the words for the religion. For the phonotactics of the plural misilmin, compare midneb.
