Editing Azazil (section)

==Etymology and naming==
The name resembles [[Azazel]], a fallen angel in the [[Apocalypse of Abraham]], and might be its etymological origin.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Orlov |first1=Andrei A. |title=Dark Mirrors: Azazel and Satanael in Early Jewish Demonology |date=2011 |publisher=SUNY Press |isbn=978-1-4384-3953-2 |page=49 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=H5pbK3uXL5cC&pg=PA49 }}</ref> Feinberg argues that the name relates to Arabic ''‘azala'' (to remove) and is given to this angel because he "removes or separates" by Muslim authors.<ref>DUGGAN, Terrance Michael Patrick.

Some Islamic philologists construct his name from the words ''aziz'' and ''il'' (''God's dear''), meaning that his name derived from the meaning that he was once God's favorite angel.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Lari |first1=Maryam |title=THE IMAGES OF ANGELS IN IRANIAN ART A Civilization Interaction in a Comparative Study |journal=International Journal of Social Sciences and Humanity Studies |date=1 June 2011 |volume=3 |issue=1 |pages=247–257 |url=https://dergipark.org.tr/en/pub/ijsshs/issue/26221/276163 }}</ref> 

According to many Arabic scholars, ''ʿAzāzīl'' was the personal name of Satan (Iblis). [[Ibn Manzur]]<ref>ZenEldeen, Zakaria Sobhi. "Dangers and Treatment of Hypocrites' Rumors Thematic Analytical Study." مجلة الجامعة الإسلامية للدراسات الإسلامية (عقيدة-تفسير-حديث) 29.1 (2021).</ref> (June–July 1233 – December 1311/January 1312) writes in his [[dictionary]] of the Arabic language:
{{blockquote|"The word "إبليس" [(Iblis)] is from the root "بلس" [({{sc|bls}})]. The root may mean: to be silent. "أبلس من رحمة الله" means to be in despair of 
Allah's mercy, hence, the name إبليس (Iblis). His original name was Azazil. Allah has said in Surah [[Ar-Rum|Al-Rum]] "وَيَوْمَ تَقُومُ ٱلسَّاعَةُ يُبْلِسُ ٱلْمُجْرِمُونَ" (On the Day that the Hour will be established, the guilty will be struck dumb with despair). The name "Iblis" is derived from the root, بلس , as he is in despair of Allah's mercy" -Ibn Mandhur, Lisan Al-Arab, Vol.6/29}}
