Arif (Arabic: عارف also spelled Aref in Pashto, Persian & Urdu, or Arief in Indonesian and Malay) is an Arabic male given name that is common in Eritrea, Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia and Yemen. It later spread to other Muslim countries, such as Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iran, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan and Turkey as well as among Muslims in India. In early Islam it can also refer to a man who has been taught customary law and entrusted with certain duties: distributing stipends to the warriors, collecting blood money, guarding the interest of orphans, and assisting in controlling of the markets.
