More About Mujeeb

Mujeeb (مجيب, mujīb) is an Arabic name meaning “responsive” or “one who answers.” It is formed from أجاب, to answer or respond, from the root ج و ب. Mujib is another common Latin spelling.

In Quran 11:61, mujīb describes Allah as responsive; the verse gives the word a clear religious context. The lexical meaning should be distinguished from claims about a child’s future personality: a name does not establish that its bearer will have particular character traits.
