Name meaning and origin
Batul is formed from the root bətl (to cut, to separate) in the Arabic language and literally means cut off, separated. Over time the word acquired the figurative sense of a chaste woman who withdraws from worldly affairs and devotes herself to worship.
The name is known above all as the epithet of Fatimah az-Zahra, the daughter of our Prophet (peace be upon him); she was called Batul because of her distance from worldly amusements and devotion to worship. Although rarely used as an independent name in Azerbaijan, it is well received among religious families for its meaning and its historical connection to Fatimah.
