أَهَمّmore important, most importantEtymology
مُهِمّ is the active participle of the form IV verb أَهَمَّ, meaning to concern or to be of importance. The verb comes from the triliteral root ه‑م‑م, which underlies هَمّ, meaning concern, care, or worry. So an important thing is, at root, a thing that weighs on the mind and demands attention.
