Different spellings and forms of Bushriy across languages
While the exact name 'Bushriy' does not appear directly in the Quran, it derives from the Quranic root B-SH-R related to 'bushrah' (بُشْرى, good tidings) and the verb form 'bashshara' (بَشَّرَ, to give glad tidings). The root appears numerous times throughout the Quran in various forms, including references to the angels giving glad tidings to Abraham and Sarah, and the Quran itself being described as bringing glad tidings to believers. The concept is central to Islamic theology as the Quran and prophets are described as bearers of good news.
إِنَّ هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنَ يَهْدِي لِلَّتِي هِيَ أَقْوَمُ وَيُبَشِّرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ الَّذِينَ يَعْمَلُونَ الصَّالِحَاتِ أَنَّ لَهُمْ أَجْرًا كَبِيرًا
“Indeed, this Qur'an guides to that which is most upright and gives good tidings to the believers who do righteous deeds that they will have a great reward.”
التَّائِبُونَ الْعَابِدُونَ الْحَامِدُونَ السَّائِحُونَ الرَّاكِعُونَ السَّاجِدُونَ الْآمِرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَالنَّاهُونَ عَنِ الْمُنكَرِ وَالْحَافِظُونَ لِحُدُودِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَبَشِّرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
“The repentant, the worshippers, those who praise, those who fast, those who bow, those who prostrate, those who command what is right and forbid what is wrong, and those who keep the limits of Allah - and give good tidings to the believers.”
وَتُرْجِي مَن تَشَاءُ مِنْهُنَّ وَتَضِمُّ إِلَيْكَ مَن تَشَاءُ ۖ وَمَن تَوَيّْتَ مِنْهُنَّ فَلَا جُنَاحَ عَلَيْكَ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ أَدْنَىٰ أَن تَقَرَّ أَعْيُنُهُنَّ وَلَا يَحْزَنَّ ۚ وَكُلُّ امْرَأَةٍ مِّنْهُنَّ تَرْجُو اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ ۚ وَمَن يَقْنُتْ مِنكُنَّ لِلَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَتَعْمَلْ صَالِحًا نُّؤْتِهَا أَجْرَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ وَأَعْتَدْنَا لَهَا رِزْقًا كَرِيمًا
