Met a lady from Pakistan recently and she called me "Anil SAHIB"... I don't think anybody before has called me SAHIB. To me SAHIBA is more prettier to be used than Sahib. My observation....
Assalam O Aleikum SAHIBA,
"Sahiba" is (the female form of Sahib). Sahib came from Arabic
language originally and means.."friend, companion". Later it was used
for "Lord". Now a days in Hindi and Bengali this word means "Sir,
Master or, primarily, Lord". In British India in feudal and colonial
times, Sahib was also a formal style, used on its own or as an
additional title, for native aristocrats, including rulers of some
princely states and/or certain members of their dynasties. In short
Sahib & Sahiba means: a) Friend and companion b) Master c) Lord d) Sir
. Thanks for adding "Sahib" behind Anil. No one ever before did that -
you are the first one. Less are the people in this world who are so
respectful to others. Thank you. I trust you did not mean "Sahib" as
or anything close to like: b) Master c) Lord d) Sir...did you? Friend
and companion is what I meant when I used Sahiba behind your name.
