Correct Answer:
C. لقب
لقب (Laqab) is the correct answer. A Laqab is a descriptive name or title given to a person by the public or a community based on their qualities, achievements, or characteristics. For example, "Siddiq" for Abu Bakr (R.A) meaning "The Truthful".
- اسم مشتق (Ism Mushtaq) refers to a derived noun, formed from a root verb or another noun, not a descriptive title.
- اسم معرفہ (Ism Maarifa) is a proper noun, referring to a specific person, place, or thing, but not necessarily a descriptive title given by the public.
- کنیت (Kunyat) is a name indicating a relationship, usually starting with "Abu" (father of) or "Umm" (mother of), like Abu Hurairah, not a descriptive title based on qualities.
