What does HAKIM mean in Scrabble?
noun
historical
A physician or judge in traditional Islamic and South Asian society.
A hakim treated illness using long-established remedies drawn from Islamic and Indian medical traditions, long before Western medicine reached those regions. The same word was also used for a judge, ruler or governor in Muslim countries and in India before independence, so context decides which sense applies. Both senses share the idea of someone whose learning gives them authority over others, whether in the body or the law.
