Full Meaning of Merab

Merab is a name for girls that means terminus, a final point or goal. Its plural is Ma’arib, which is used in the Quran by Prophet Musa (Moses) peace be upon him in 20:18:

He replied, ‘It is my staff. I lean on it, and with it, I beat down the leaves for my flock; I also have other uses for it.’

In the above verse Ma’arib is translated as “uses”. Musa peace be upon him is saying that he has other goals in having that staff.
