What Wiktionary says
Quoted line by line from Wiktionary's Etymology section for this reading, taken from one dated dump so it can't change underneath us. Nothing below is paraphrased.
- “From Old Japanese arayuru, the attributive form of the passive form of ar- “to be, to exist”. Note that the passive marker -(a)ye- (attributive form -(a)yuru) ceased to be used in Early Middle Japanese except in fossilized expressions such as あらゆる (arayuru) and いはゆる (ifayuru) and in kanbun.”
