What does Farehah mean?

From the Arabic root 'faraha' which means to be radiant or to bring light. This name is derived from the beautiful story of Prophet Yusuf (as) in the Quran, where his brothers dipped his shirt in goat's blood to make it appear as if he had been killed. When they presented it to their father Ya'qub (as), he was overwhelmed with grief and proclaimed, 'Farhanatni huwa' (I have been given light with this news), referring to the relief he felt upon learning that Yusuf was still alive.
