Etymology

The word comes from the Semitic root ʔ-m-n, meaning to be safe, secure, and trustworthy. From this root Arabic forms the noun أَمْن, security, and then adds the relational suffix ـِيّ to make the adjective. So أَمْنِيّ literally marks something as belonging to or concerned with security.
