Meaning of the name Khadijah? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

As salaamu alaykum.

Does anyone know what the meaning of the name "Khadijah" is?

Allah has blessed my sister and her husband with a beautiful baby girl who they have named after the mother of the believers Khadijah (ra). And although of course we are aware that this name is obviously blessed because it was possessed by her, we're still curious about what it means.

Does anyone know?

If so, please post the answer insha'allah.

Jazakallahu Khair.

Wa'salaam.

Mashallah Sunni student great news. May ALLAH bless the baby girl ameen. My daughter's name is also Khadijah. She is a trouble maker. She crawls around and nowadays fights with her older brother. Make dua that ALLAH uses her for some service of deen unlike her father who has so far not been fortunate in giving any service to deen.

I was once with Shaykh Yunus Jonpuri Saheb db, and a guy (I think a mureed of his) came to ask him to name his new born relative, Hadrath said "name her Khadija' but the guy requested for a different name, to which Hadrath replied "I can't think of a better name than Khadijah" "Mujhe usse accha naam yaad nahi' Just thought I'll share this with you guys. (Those urdu words aren't exactly what he said).

If you want to know the meaning of it, then you will have to wait...

I believe it means an 'early' or 'premature' baby, at least in modern Arabic. Not sure about classically.
