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

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

Widad comes from the same Arabic root w-d-d as Mawadda, the root behind Al-Wadud (The Loving), one of the ninety-nine names of Allah.
