What is the meaning of the name Misbahul Islam ?

The baby name Misbahul Islam is a Male name , 5 syllables long and is pronounced mis-BAH-ul is-LAAM; IPA: /mɪsˈbaːh ʊl ɪsˈlaːm/.

Misbahul Islam is Arabic in Origin.

Misbahul Islam is a compound Arabic honorific-given name meaning "lamp of Islam" (misbah + al-Islam). Misbah derives from the Quranic word for lamp in the Verse of Light (Q 24:35), evoking guidance and illumination; al-Islam denotes the faith. The South Asian connective -ul reflects the Arabic definite article al within the idafa (genitive) construction, carried through Persian/Urdu transcription, so the phrase literally reads "the lamp of Islam."

Used mainly as a male Muslim name or scholarly laqab in South Asia (Bangladesh, Pakistan, and India), it appears in records from the late Mughal and colonial periods onward and remains current today; "Ul Islam" also survives as a family-name element. Variants and spellings include Misbah al-Islam, Misbah-ul-Islam, Misbahul-Islam, Misbah Al Islam, and the shortened Misbah/Mesbah. Cognate formations include Misbahuddin ("lamp of the faith") and Nurul Islam ("light of Islam").
