Rüqəyyə Origin and Meaning

The name Rüqəyyə is a girl's name.

Rüqəyyə is a feminine name of Arabic origin, a variant transliteration of Ruqayyah (رقية). This name has significant importance in Islamic tradition as it was the name of one of Prophet Muhammad's daughters. The meaning is often associated with 'rise,' 'ascent,' or 'advancement,' symbolizing spiritual elevation. The specific spelling with diacritical marks (the umlaut over 'u' and the schwa 'ə') indicates this is likely the Azerbaijani rendering of the name, as these characters are used in the Azerbaijani Latin alphabet. Rüqəyyə remains popular in Muslim communities worldwide, particularly in Azerbaijan, Turkey, and other regions with Turkic linguistic influence, where traditional Islamic names maintain cultural significance.
