Full Meaning of Hak

Hak is a direct Quranic name for boys that means “truth”, “right” (as in “human rights”). It is the source for one of the names of God in Islam, al-Hak. al-Hak means “The Truth”, which refers to God alone, but without the al- in front of it, the word Hak becomes a general word that means anything that is true or rightful. The word Hak is used a little less than 300 times in the Quran.

Such was Jesus, the son of Mary. That is the whole truth, about which they still dispute. (Quran 19:34)
