Muslim names for girls have a musical ring to them and they are usually sweet and short. Like all other Indian names, Muslim names also have meanings. And, all these names directly or indirectly reflect the qualities of Allah.
In fact, a lot of emphasis is given on choosing meaningful Muslim names for baby girls. Here are a few examples of common Muslim names for girls:
Khabira is a Sufi name of God. It literally means one who sees all, the cognizant one; the seer of all. This is one of the preferred Muslim names for girls. It helps to become more conscious in everything you do. For instance, it reminds you of the seer within, the witness. So, when you look at something, you don’t only look at the thing but also at the one that is looking. It is like a meditation.
Rahima is a popular name that means mercy, kindness, and compassion. This too is a name of God. Compassion is the door through which one can reach God.
Hafiza means one who preserves. It suggests that you are worried for no rhyme or reason because God has always preserved you and will continue to do so in the future. Girls with the Muslim name Hafiza will feel secure and safe.
Zahira is another of the Muslim names which means the manifest one. God is manifest in the trees, the rivers, the mountains, in people, in animals. God is both hidden and unhidden. Shahido means the hidden one who is looking from inside and Zahira means the manifest one that is as much outside as inside.
Alima is one of the preferred female Muslim names that means one who knows; it suggests that unless you become one with God there is no way of knowing. What you call knowledge is nothing more than information. Real knowing comes when from God who knows all.
Female Muslim names like Wahida mean the only one. They remind the person that the only one who needs to be remembered is Allah. It helps the person to remain focused and grounded instead of running after the many things that attract attention.
Nur is light, divine light. It is radiance. When you have realized that God is everywhere, you glow like light itself. Nur is one of the very common Muslim names for girls.
