According the wikipedia, Islam mostly means 'submission', not 'peace'. Not unless the peace comes from submitting, just like peace can come to Singapore when oppies submit to PAP's leadership.

Islam (Arabic: إسلام, IPA: [alʔɪsˈlaːm] (
listen)) is a verbal noun originating from the triliteral root S-L-M which forms a large class of words mostly relating to concepts of wholeness, submission, safeness, and peace.[43] In a religious context it means "voluntary submission to God".[44][45] Islām is the verbal noun of Form IV of the root, and means "submission" or "surrender". Muslim, the word for an adherent of Islam, is the active participle of the same verb form, and means "submitter" or "one who surrenders".https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam#Etymology_and_meaning
