Full Definition

مُطْمَئِنٌّ A place low, or depressed.
2 And A man still, in a state of rest or ease, quiet, or calm; as also طَمْنٌ , but this is a word unused in the [genuine] language, pl. طُمُونٌ. Hence one says, هُوَ مُطْمَئِنٌّ إِلَى كَذَا He is trusting to such a thing, or relying upon it, so as to be at rest or ease, or quiet, in mind. And [it is said that] النَّفْسُ المُطْمَئِنَّةُ means The soul that has become at rest or ease, quiet, or calm, by belief; and lowly, humble, or submissive, to its Lord.
3 Also Taking for oneself a place in the earth, or in a country, as a home, or settled place of abode.
