Behind the Name: NURA
The name NURA is derived from the Arabic language
meaning “the Light.” Light is a metaphor for wisdom,
knowledge, and truth. The purpose of light is to give a clear
perception of what may not be seen otherwise. The best
example is given in Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. The men
of the cave thought they knew everything there was to
know about life until they were expose to light. Light in that
example was not only a representation of knowledge but
truth. NURA Magazine hopes to provide articles that are
captivating yet rich with wisdom.
