Tahoor is a versatile and harmonious name suitable for both boys and girls. The name holds the profound meaning of 'Purity, purifying', reflecting qualities that parents often wish to bestow upon their child.

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

Tahoor comes from the same Arabic root t-h-r as Mutahir. The Quran (76:21) describes the drink given to the people of Paradise as “sharaban tahura,” a purifying drink.
