Full Meaning of Hakem

Hakem means wise, insightful, and decisive. It is mentioned in verse 44:4 in one of about 97 mentions; when preceded by definite article ‘Al’ (Al-Hakem) it becomes one of the 99 Attributes of Allah and cannot be used as a name, however without the ‘Al’, the use of Hakem as a name is allowed, according to the scholar Abu Mansur Al-Azhari.

On that night it is made distinct, every wise, decisive command [of your Lord]. {44:4}

[Prophet], this news that we recite for you are among God’s signs and belong to the Decisive Remembrance [i.e. the Quran]. {3:58}
