Ila indicates how far an act, boundary or relationship extends. It commonly means “to” or “up to,” but whether the terminal object itself is included requires a further distinction.
«إلى: لانتهاء الغاية»
Ila indicates the termination of an endpoint.
Example: “I travelled from Deoband to Delhi.” The destination is indicated. Whether an endpoint is included in a legal rule cannot be answered merely from the English word “to.”
