Shafaq

With its Arabic roots, Shafaq is a unique unisex choice carrying profound meaning. The literal meaning, 'Twilight', evokes imagery of nature and radiance, suggesting a personality full of life and positivity.

Pronounced as Shafaq, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Shafaq comes from the Arabic root sh-f-q, meaning “twilight glow.” The Quran (84:16) opens an oath with “fala uqsimu bish-shafaq,” “I swear by the twilight glow.”
