Usage: The name "Iyyob" is traditionally understood to mean "persecuted" or "hated," reflecting the trials and adversities faced by the biblical character Job.

Cultural and Historical Background: Job is considered a patriarchal figure, possibly living during the time of the patriarchs like Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The Book of Job is set in the land of Uz, a region whose exact location is uncertain but is thought to be east of Israel. The narrative is a profound exploration of human suffering and divine sovereignty, and it is highly regarded for its literary and theological depth. Job's account is a testament to faith and perseverance amidst inexplicable suffering.
