Yasein

Yasein is a transliteration variant of a given name of Arabic origin and, less commonly, a surname. It is most closely associated with Ya-Sin, the title of the 36th chapter of the Qur'an, and with the given name Yasin (also spelled Yasin, Yassin, Yaseen, and related forms). The spelling Yasein reflects transliteration choices from Arabic to Latin script and is used in various Muslim communities and diaspora populations.

The name Ya-Sin derives from the two Arabic letters Ya and Sin that open the surah, and it is common in many Muslim-majority societies to use Ya-Sin as a personal name in honor of the Qur'anic chapter. As a result, Yasein and its variants are sometimes adopted as given names as well as surnames, though the distribution and popularity vary by country and community.

In contemporary contexts, there are no widely recognized figures who use the exact spelling Yasein with a standalone biographical entry in major reference sources. Variants such as Yasin, Yassin, and Yaseen are more common and have more extensive documentation.
