Hashim is a masculine name of Arabic origin, meaning 'crusher' or 'breaker', historically referring to one who breaks bread to share with others—a symbol of generosity. The name carries significant Islamic heritage as Hashim ibn Abd Manaf was the great-grandfather of the Prophet Muhammad and progenitor of the Banu Hashim clan, from which many important Islamic figures descended. The Hashemite royal family of Jordan traces their lineage to this clan. Hashim is widely used throughout Muslim communities worldwide, particularly in the Middle East, South Asia, and parts of Africa. The name conveys values of hospitality, generosity, and noble lineage. While not among the most common Muslim names globally, it maintains steady popularity and is immediately recognized within Islamic cultures.
