TakiudDin

Takiuddin is a masculine given name of Arabic origin widely used among Muslim communities. The name is constructed from two elements: taqi, meaning pious or righteous, and ud-Din (or al-Din), meaning of the faith or religion. As with many Arabic compound names, spelling and transliteration vary, yielding forms such as Taqiuddin, Taqi-ud-Din, Taki-ud-Din, and Taqiuddin al-Din.

Usage and distribution of the name are most common in the Indian subcontinent—India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh—and among Middle Eastern populations, as well as in diaspora communities around the world. It is typically given to boys and often appears as part of longer names that combine religious or honorific elements.

In onomastic records, the name is associated with individuals who have been active in religious scholarship, public service, and cultural life in regions with strong Arabic, Persian, or South Asian influences. While there are several bearers of the name, no single figure universally defines it, and the name should be understood as part of broader naming traditions rather than as tied to a specific lineage or personal identity.
