Sa‘id (also spelled Saeed, Saeid, Said, or Sayid, (アラビア語:سعيد), ) is a male Arabic given name meaning "happy". For the female version, see Saida (name); for the Turkish variant, see Sait. The Maltese surname ''Said'', pronounced (), has the same origin but has been borne by Latin Catholics for over seven centuries. Most Maltese surnames are of Italian origin, but this (with ''Abdilla'') is one of the very few authentically Arabic given names that have survived in the islands as family names. It is a variant of the medieval Sicilian Christian surname ''Saido'', ''Saito'' (''Saidu'') which was derived from the Siculo-Arabic given name ''Sa'īd'' used by both Muslims and Christians. In Sicily and Malta this surname was sometimes italianized as ''(De) Felice''. The surname was established in Malta by 1419, appearing mostly as ''Sayd'' in the militia list of that year. In the 1480 militia list it is spelt mostly ''Said'', but was later variously written ''Said'', ''Sayd'', ''Sajt'', ''Sait'' in the Catholic church census of 1687. The anachronistic and undocumented claim that 'Nicolò Sayd', a grandson of Cem (1459–1496, the renegade son of Turkish Sultan Mehmet II) settled in Malta and became the ancestor of all Maltese bearing the surname ''Said'' is a fantasy inspired by the writings of historical novelists Maurice Caron and John Freely and recently promoted by amateur genealogists. ==Given name== *Saeed bin Zaid (593–673), one of the Companions of Muhammed *Sa`id ibn Jubayr (665–714), one of the leading Tabi`in *Sultan Said Khan, ruler of Kashgaria in 1514–1533 *Said bin Sultan, Sultan of Muscat and Oman (1797–1856) *Sa'id of Egypt (or Sa'id Pasha, 1822–1863), Ottoman Viceroy and Egyptian ruler for whom Port Said is named *Mehmed Said Pasha (or Said Pasha, 1830–1914), Ottoman Grand Vizier *Said Nursî (1878–1960), Muslim Scholar from Turkey *Saeed Akhtar Mirza (born 1943), Indian film director *Saeed Abubakr Zakaria, 21st-century Ghanaian scholar and leading member of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa'a *Saïd Taghmaoui (born 1973), French actor *Saeid Bayat (born 1976), Iranian football midfielder *Saeid Ebrahimi (born 1982), Iranian wrestler *Saeid Marouf (born 1985), volleyball player from Iran *Said Shavershian (born 1986), Australian bodybuilder, older brother of Aziz Shavershian, aka Zyzz *Saeid Davarpanah (born 1987), Iranian professional basketball player *Saeid Alihosseini (born 1988), Iranian weightlifter *Saeed Ajmal, Pakistani cricketer *Said Salim Bakhresa, Tanzanian businessman *Said Bahaji, German al-Qaeda member *Saeed al-Ghamdi, Saudi Arabian hijacker of United Airlines Flight 93 in the September 11 attacks *Saeed Hanaei, Iranian serial killer *Sa'id Hormozi, Iranian musician *Saeed al-Masri, Egyptian al-Qaeda member *Saeed Nafisi, Iranian scholar *Saeed Naqvi, Indian journalist *Saeid Pirdoost, Iranian actor *Said Sheikh Samatar, Somali historian *Said Ali al-Shihri, Saudi Arabian al-Qaeda member 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sa‘id」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
