Manahil meaning
Manahil (مناہل) is a Muslim girl's name of Arabic origin (Urdu usage).
Springs, watering places (plural of manhal)
Also used to mean: springs of fresh water, fountain
Manahil (مناہل) is the plural of the Arabic manhal, from the root n-h-l, "to drink". Lane's lexicon defines manhal as a watering place, a spring to which camels are brought to drink, so manāhil are springs or watering places, a welcome sight in desert poetry. Name lists give Manahil as "springs of fresh water" or "fountain", in line with the dictionary. The name is used in Pakistan and India, and Minahil is another spelling of the same name.
