مدینہ
The phrase madina in Urdu is مدینہ.
Did you know?
- While madina literally means 'city' in Arabic, in Urdu it is used almost exclusively as a proper noun to refer to the city of Medina in Saudi Arabia.
- In common Urdu speech, people may refer to the city as Madinah Munawwarah, adding a word that means 'the enlightened' or 'the radiant'.
- In Urdu poetry and 'Naat' (poetry praising the Prophet), madina often symbolizes a spiritual sanctuary or a place of ultimate peace and longing rather than just a physical city.
