Habib (Arabic : حبيب , romanized : ḥabīb ; Arabic pronunciation: [ħabiːb ] ), sometimes written as Habeeb , is an Arabic masculine given name, occasional surname, and honorific, with the meaning "beloved"[1] [2] or "my love", or "darling".[3] It also forms the famous Arabic word ‘Habibi’ which is used to refer to a friend or a significant other in the aspect of love or admiration.
The name is popular throughout the Muslim World , though particularly in the Middle East and Africa . In other countries, especially in Yemen and Southeast Asian countries such as Brunei , Singapore , Indonesia and Malaysia , it is an honorific to address a Muslim scholar of Sayyid (a descendant of Muhammad ) families and where it is one of the names of the Islamic prophet Muhammad – حبيب الله Habib Allah (Habibullah/ Habiballah) - "Most Beloved of Allah (God)".
"The hard worker ("earner, gainer") is Most Loved of Allah " (Arabic : al-kāsib Ḥabīb Allah الكَسِب حَبِيب الله), atop an arch in a mosque in Istanbul , Turkey
The name, as is the case with other Arabic names, is not only confined to Muslims. Notable examples of Christian individuals named Habib include Habib the Deacon ,[4] Gabriel Habib[5] and the Philosopher Habib.[6]
Habiba is the female equivalent.
Etymology [ edit ]
The name stems from the Arabic verb ḥabba (حَبَّ ), meaning to "love", "admire, be fond of".
Another variant which is used as a given name and adjective of the stem from that verb is『maḥbūb 』(مَحْبُوب ) meaning "well-beloved", commonly written as Mahbub , the female equivalent Mahbuba (Arabic: maḥbūbah مَحْبُوبَة ).
The Hebrew equivalent of the name is Haviv (Hebrew : חָבִיב) used as both a first name and last name with the same meaning, "darling" or "likeable" in Hebrew.
