Asif (Arabic: آصف) is an Arabic masculine given name. In Persian and Urdu it is often pronounced as 'Asif' or 'Asef' though the original form is 'Asaf'. This name referred to Solomon's vizier in the Islamic tradition, and by extension to a wise, prudential figure. It was originally borrowed from the Hebrew name Asaf (אסף) meaning "gather, harvest" (lit. "he gathered.")
