Shining, radiant, or with beautiful dark lips
In Arabic, the name is derived from the root meaning 'to shine' or 'to sparkle,' often used to describe a radiant glow. A secondary poetic meaning in classical Arabic literature refers to a woman with dark, beautiful lips, which was historically considered a mark of beauty. It is a name that conveys both physical brightness and aesthetic grace.
