The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.
What is the meaning of the name Rubina?
Answer
We are unable to locate an entry for 'Rubina' in our dictionaries. A few matches are as follows:
1. Raboona (Arabic) - something given to the seller as an extra over and above the agreed price.
2. Rabbaani (fem. Rabbaaniyya - Arabic) - a person of God.
It is doubtful that 'Rubina' is an Islamic name. Muslim names should express their bearers religious identity without any doubt.
