Hajar

Hajar is a heartfelt name of Arabic origin and a variant of the Hebrew name Hagar, meaning “flight” or “to flee.” The name Hajar is mainly rooted in Christianity, and parents of fervent faith could point to its connections to the biblical figure Hagar. This girl’s name is also given to the Hajar Mountains, where some of Oman’s tallest peaks tower over the mosques of Nizwa and neighboring cities. Famed in ancient times and on mountaintops, Hajar might hold the key to all hearts.
