Faruqh
Faruqh Origin and Meaning
Faruqh is a masculine name of Arabic origin, a variant spelling of Farooq or Farouk, derived from the word 'farūq' meaning 'one who distinguishes truth from falsehood.' This name carries significant historical and religious importance in Islamic tradition, as it was a title given to Umar ibn al-Khattab, the second caliph of Islam. The spelling variation with the ending 'h' gives this traditional name a distinctive touch. Faruqh conveys qualities of discernment, wisdom, and moral clarity. While common in Muslim communities worldwide, it remains relatively uncommon in Western countries. The name has a strong, dignified sound with its two syllables and emphatic ending. For families with Islamic heritage, Faruqh offers a meaningful connection to faith and tradition while maintaining a sophisticated contemporary appeal.
