About Hirah
Hirah is listed in the CC0 Muslim Names Dataset as a female name. The source records its meaning as “Mount Hirah, named after the mountain where the Holy Quran was delivered to Prophet Muhammed (PBUH).”. Its origin label is stated directly in the source text. Its reader-friendly phonetic spelling is generated deterministically from the published transliteration and should be reviewed for names with complex or region-specific pronunciation.
Meaning and Arabic spelling are sourced from the Muslim Names Dataset or, where provided, the record-specific provenance URL. Origin labels are source-stated where available or transparently inferred from the published script or etymological signal. Phonetic respellings are generated reading guides, not native-speaker recordings. See Sources & methodology for data limitations.
