muizz

Muizz is a male given name of Arabic origin. It is commonly transliterated as Mu’izz, Muiz, or Muizzuddin. The name comes from the Arabic root for strength and honor, and is typically interpreted as “one who bestows honor” or “one who gives strength.” In Islamic tradition, Al-Mu’izz (المعِز) is one of the 99 Names of Allah, usually rendered “The Bestower of Honor” or “Giver of Strength.”

The name is used across the Muslim world, including the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. It appears both as a standalone given name and as part of longer names such as Mu’izz ud-Din or Muizzuddin, common in South Asia and the Middle East.

A notable historical bearer is Mu’izz ud-Din Muhammad, also known as Mu’izz al-Din Muhammad, a 12th–13th century ruler who founded the Delhi Sultanate and established Muslim rule over much of northern India.

In modern times, Muizz remains a relatively common given name among Muslims worldwide, reflecting its historical and religious associations.
