More Arabic names
Musa
“The Arabic form of Moses, from the Hebrew "Moshe" — possibly derived from the Egyptian "msi" meaning "born of" or "son of", though the Hebrew text provides a folk etymology from the root "msh" meaning to draw out (from water). In Islam, Musa is the prophet who receives the Torah (Tawrat) from God on Mount Sinai and is considered the prophet most frequently mentioned in the Quran.”
Lelah
“Lelah is a feminine name, likely a variant of Leila, an Arabic and Persian feminine name from the word layl meaning "night." The name is evocative of dark, mysterious beauty in Arabic and Persian poetic tradition — Leila and Majnun is the great Arab and Persian love story, the Eastern equivalent of Romeo and Juliet.”
Ilyas
“The Arabic form of Elijah, from the Hebrew "Eliyahu" meaning "my God is Yahweh" or "Yahweh is God". In Islamic tradition, Ilyas is considered a prophet sent to the people of Baal-worship in ancient Phoenicia — his story parallels the Biblical Elijah and he is mentioned in the Quran (Surah 37) as a messenger of righteousness.”
Salama
“From the Arabic root "s-l-m" meaning peace, safety, and wholeness — the same foundational root as Islam and salam. Salama means "safety", "peace", or "soundness". Umm Salama (Hind bint Abi Umayya) was a wife of the Prophet Muhammad renowned for her wisdom, and Salama was borne by several early Islamic figures of note.”
Salim
“From the Arabic root "s-l-m" meaning peace, wholeness, safety, and soundness — the same root as "Islam" and "salam" (peace). Salim means "sound", "safe", or "at peace" — a man who is whole and unharmed, not merely in body but in spirit, someone who has achieved an inner completeness.”
Malak
“From the Arabic "malak" meaning angel or heavenly messenger — the divine intermediaries between God and humanity in Islamic theology. Malak is used as both a masculine and feminine name, though in contemporary usage it skews feminine, conveying the pure, luminous beauty of the angelic beings described in the Quran.”
