Qureshi (also rendered as Qureshi,Quraishi, Qureshy, Quraishy, Qoraishi, Qoreshi, Koraishi, Kureshi, Kureshy, Kureishi, Coreish, Template:Lang-ur) derived from 'Quresh', is a Muslim family name that originates from Saudi Arabia and indicates descent from the Quresh, which was the noblest tribe in Mecca at the time of birth of Muhammad[2] when Muhammad’s grandfather[3] was the head of the tribe.

Quresh is also the name of 106th Surah of the Qur'an.

About

The Qureshi family diaspora is spread all around the world. Due to Arab conquest into foreign lands, the Quresh was able to establish itself in these lands and exists in many parts of South Asia, particularly in India (see Chik), Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. The descendants of Arabs who arrived with Muhammad Bin Qasim settled in South Asia. Some members of the Qureshi family are denoted as being royal, some being the Talpurs of Sindh.

Titles like Mir, Syed, Shah, Pirzada, Bukhari, Sufi, Rana, Raja, Peer, Makhdomzada, Mian, and Sardar are not specific tribes or nations although often used as forenames, but now these titles denote castes, communities or families in South Asia.[4]

History

Muhammad also mentioned Fahr/Quraish[5] in his lineage up to Adnan.[6]

Qureshi Family in Pakistan

The Qureshi family in Pakistan descends from Sufi Bahauddin Zakariya, who is from the Hashemite family. The family is quite scattered, some being in Punjab and in Sindh. Some members of the family are Shah Mahmood Qureshi and Farooq Amin Qureshi. Similarly many of Qureshi descendants migrated to Pakistan from India and settled in different parts of Pakistan. Dr. Zahoor Ahmad Qureshi was one of the educated and religious scholars of the Qureshi tribe who opted to reside in Kotmomin a small village near Sargodha to render his services for the poor and the needy in the area. Noor Muhammad Qureshi, a nuclear engineer, made a dedicated efort and contributed his services towards making Pakistan a nuclear state.
