Full Meaning of Ensherah

Ensherah is an indirect Quranic name for girls that means “when the heart becomes open”, “relief”, “relaxation”, “cheer”. It is a non-standard variant of the name Inshirah. It is derived from the SH-R-H6 root that is used in many places in the Quran. Inshirah is also used as a name for chapter 94 of the Quran.

When God desires to guide someone, He opens his heart to Islam; and whoever He wills to let go astray, He causes his breast to be constricted as if he had to climb up to the skies. That is how God heaps ignominy upon those who refuse to believe. (Quran 6:125)
