Mohib meaning

Mohib (محب) is a Muslim boy's name of Arabic origin.

Loving; a lover, a friend

Mohib (محب) is the Arabic muḥibb, "one who loves", from ḥubb, "love". Lane's lexicon refers muḥibb to ḥabīb, which besides "beloved" also means a person loving, a lover or a friend. The name is the active counterpart of Mehboob, "beloved", from the same root. Name lists give the meaning as "lover" or "loving", matching the dictionary. It is also used in compounds such as Mohibullah, "lover of God". Muhib and Muhibb are other spellings.
