What People Usually Mean by This Name

From the Arabic root ن-ص-ر (to help, to give victory), Nasri is the nisba: of victory, the man whose life is aligned with the granting of aid. The same root gives Nasr (help), the Ansar (the Medinan Helpers), and one of the divine names, al-Nasir.

The Quran uses this root in Surah An-Nasr, the surah of Allah's help and clear victory. Nasri as a name was widely borne by the Nasrid dynasty of Granada, whose Alhambra bears the phrase wa la ghaliba illa Allah (there is no victor but Allah) in inscription after inscription.

Nasri is a Levantine and Egyptian boys' name. It asks that a son be counted among those Allah uses to bring aid.
