Arqam

If you are looking for a strong and significant name for your son, Arqam is a standout choice. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Writer, speckled snake', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

While popular in Arabic regions, Arqam has a modern appeal that transcends borders. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Arqam comes from the Arabic root r-q-m, meaning “to mark” or “write.” Al-Arqam ibn Abi al-Arqam was a companion whose house in Mecca, Dar al-Arqam, served as the Prophet ﷺ's first secret gathering place for the early Muslim community.
