Etymology
إِبْعاد is the verbal noun of the Form IV verb أَبْعَدَ, built on the triliteral root ب-ع-د, which carries the core sense of distance or farness. The إفعال pattern turns a root meaning "to be far" into a causative action noun: the act of making something far, that is, removing or distancing it. Arabic is a Semitic language, so this root has no Indo-European ancestry.
