Issra

The name Issra is derived from the Arabic word 'Isra' (إسراء), which refers to the miraculous night journey of the Islamic prophet Muhammad from Mecca to Jerusalem, and then his ascension to heaven. This event is a significant narrative in Islamic tradition and is detailed in the Quran. The name carries a deep spiritual and historical resonance within Muslim cultures.

While 'Isra' itself is a noun referring to the event, its use as a given name for females is a way to honor this sacred journey. It is predominantly found in Muslim-majority countries and communities, reflecting its religious significance. The spelling 'Issra' is a common transliteration of the Arabic.
