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

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

Shifa comes from the Arabic root sh-f-y, meaning β€œto heal.” The Quran (17:82) describes itself as something in which β€œis healing (shifa') and mercy for the believers.”
