Etymology
The word is the verbal noun of the Form IV verb أَثْبَتَ, meaning to prove or establish. It builds on the triliteral root ث-ب-ت, which carries the sense of firmness and fixity. The Form IV pattern إِفْعال turns the idea of being firm into the act of making something firm, that is, fixing a fact in place as proven.
