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

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

Israa comes from the Arabic root s-r-y, the root behind “Al-Isra,” the Night Journey of the Prophet ﷺ from Mecca to Jerusalem described in the Quran (17:1).
