Etymology
The name is related to the Arabic verb (lang-ar|???, transl|sem|?araqa ) meaning " Nocturnal visitor " or " Brightest Star. " http://www.babynamesworld.parentsconnect.com/meaning_of_Tariq.html
It means to knock or hammer ; and thus the name has the meaning " the knocking one " or " the one who knocks " or " the one who uses a hammer. " http://www.behindthename.com/name/tariq
The second meaning is the meaning from the Qur'an, where ?ariq is the name of the morning star, which is described as the shining star which leads the way: Nightcomer or Star of piercing brightness ( At-Tariq , verse 3).
More recent discoveries about pulsar stars have prompted some scholars to associate those Neutronic stars with Tariq.
Tariq ibn-Ziyad was a military leader who conquered Spain for the Moors, and has led to increased use of the name. http://www.baby-names-meanings.net/meaning/tariq.html
