What is the meaning of the word "Tasneem"?

The linguistic origin of "Tasneem" (تسنيم) is elevation and loftiness, from which comes the "sanam" (سنَام) or hump of a camel. It also refers to the practice of raising graves about a handspan above the ground. Scholars have interpreted Allah's saying, "And its mixture is of Tasneem" (وَ مِزَاجُهُ مِن تَسْنِيمٍ), as a drink that pours down from above, and it is the most noble drink in Paradise.
