Dear Ollios, is it possible that the word "Musulman" you used above be but a variation of "Mosulman?", that is from the rule of Mosul?

I don't think so
Accoding to wiki, Musulman comes from same root with İslam which comes from semitic word s-l-m. (peace)
but Mosul
"city in northern Iraq, from Arabic
al-Mawsul, literally "
the joined," a reference to the bridge and ford over the Tigris here."
