Səkinə (also transliterated as Sakina or Sakine) is a feminine name of Arabic origin meaning 'tranquility,' 'peace,' or 'serenity.' The name has deep Islamic significance as it was borne by Sakina bint Husayn, the great-granddaughter of the Prophet Muhammad. In various Muslim cultures across the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of Central Asia, the name is appreciated for its spiritual connotations of inner peace and divine presence. The Azerbaijani spelling with the schwa symbol (ə) reflects the phonetic pronunciation in that language. While not commonly found in Western countries, Səkinə remains moderately popular in regions with strong Islamic cultural influences, valued for its beautiful meaning and historical connections.
