Answer
1. Zareen ? Urdu ? golden
2. Zaareena: This word is perhaps derived from the Russian word Tzar ? a title is used for addressing a king in old Russia. Thus, Zaareenah or Tzareenah feminine of Zaar or Tzar may have been formed by adding the Taa` of Ta?neeth according to the Arabic grammar.
3. Safiyyah - Pure; righteous; the most valuable portions of the spoils of battle; a palm tree bearing much fruit; name of one of the honorable wives of Rasoolullah sallallaahu-alayhi-wasallam.
4. Zarith ? unable to locate.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
