In India and Pakistan, the two meanings in Arabic have diverged with different pronunciations. Shāhid (from (アラビア語:شاهد)) is a noun meaning "witness" in Urdu and Hindi,〔John Platts, ''A Dictionary of Urdu, Classical Hindi, and English'', (شاهد shāhid )〕 whereas Shaheed (Shahīd, from ) means "martyr".〔John Platts, ''A Dictionary of Urdu, Classical Hindi, and English'', ( شہيد shahīd )〕 In these countries, Shahid is commonly given as a name, whereas Shaheed is less so.
