Full Meaning of Sumeyra
Sumeyra is a Quranic name for girls that means “night companion in conversation”, a beloved friend who stays up with her friends to talk. It is the diminutive form of the name Samira. It is not directly mentioned in the Quran, but its root is S-M-R which is used in the Quran in 19:52 when speaking of a group of people in Makkah who made fun of the Quran at the time of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah upon him:
behaving arrogantly, you would talk senselessly [about the Quran] far into the night.

Hi there,
I read the meaning of the Name Sümeyra. My name is Sümeyra.
It looks like something is wrong here, the quote is not from 19:52.
Where is the quote “behaving arrogantly, you would talk senselessly [about the Quran] far into the night.” from ???
I really want to know the real meaning of Sümeyra, in German websites it say it means glowing star. In Turkisch it says the meaning of Sümeyra is leaf sprout or the dust which is taken by the windy weather.
What is the real meaning of Sümeyra? And is it in the quran? Where can I find the meaning of it? Is it really night companion?
