Meaning and origin
Ibrahim means Father of many (nations) — the same meaning carried by its Hebrew counterpart Abraham, from Hebrew elements referring to "father" and "multitude.".
Ibrahim is the standard Arabic and Quranic form of the Abrahamic patriarch's name and is used as a mainstream given name across Arabic, Turkish, Persian, South Asian (Urdu, Pashto), Southeast Asian (Malay, Indonesian), and many African and Balkan Muslim-majority communities, as well as among some Arab Christians; it carries deep religious weight distinct from, but parallel to, the Hebrew/English "Abraham" tradition.
