Its root in the classical dictionaries
المرية: التردد في الأمر، وهو أخص من الشك. قال تعالى: ولا يزال الذين كفروا في مرية منه [الحج/ 55] ، فلا تك في مرية مما يعبد هؤلاء [هود/ 109] ، فلا تكن في مرية من لقائه [السجدة/ 23] ، ألا إنهم في مرية من لقاء ربهم [فصلت/ 54] والامتراء والمماراة: المحاجة فيما فيه مرية. قال تعالى:
قوله تعالى: ﴿فلا تك في مرية﴾ [هود: 109] قيل: الشك، وقال آخرون: المرية: التردد في الأمر، وهو أخص من الشك، قال الراغب: وفيه نظر؛ فإن الشك تردد أيضا مع تساوي الطرفين.

(Some) say they were three, The dog being the fourth Among them; (others) say They were five, the dog Being the sixth,—doubtfully Guessing at the unknown; (Yet others) say they were Seven, the dog being the eighth. Say thou: "My Lord Knoweth best their number; It is but few that know Their (real case)." Enter not, Therefore, into controversies Concerning them, except On a matter that is clear, Nor consult any of them About (the affair of) the Sleepers.
Surah Al-Kahf, verse 18:22
