Namaz is not from Arabic, it is an Urdu word which is influenced largely by the Persian and the Arabic besides Hindi. Hence, you are right that Namaz has come from 'Nama Japa'.
Has this Arabic word "Namaz" derived from Sanskrit 'Nama Japa' that is "to pray by taking the name of God'?
Firstly "Namaz" isnt an Arabic word, its a Paki/Indian word. They use it instead of saying "salaat" because I guess they cant say our words or something. its just like they can pronounce the Qu'ran properly and they say "zaaliin" instead of saying it the correct way, "dhaaliin". Hmm maybe its cuz their accent is really ugly lol.
