Ijazah is a feminine title rich in history, originating from Arabic roots. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Permission, certificate', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

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

Ijazah comes from the Arabic root j-w-z, meaning “to permit” or allow - distinct from the “inability” root behind Ijaz. An “ijazah” is the traditional Islamic scholarly certificate granting permission to teach or transmit a text.
