Muslims are named by God (Allah in Arabic) as Muslims, as mentioned in Quran. Muslim is an Arabic word that means one who submits to God, the one and only one God, with no partner, no son, no companion, and no associate. The root of this Arabic word is the verb 'Salem' that means be in peace and away from harm.

Quran says:

...??????????? ??? ???????? ????? ????????? ? ???? ???????????? ????? ?????? ?????????? ??? ???????? ???? ?????? ? ???????? ????????? ???????????? ? ???? ?????????? ?????????????? ??? ?????? ????? ???????

Meaning English translation:

{And strive for Allah with the striving due to Him. He has chosen you and has not placed upon you in the religion any difficulty. [It is] the religion of your father, Abraham. Allah named you "Muslims" before [in former scriptures] and in this [revelation]...}

[Quran, chapter 22, verse 78]
