The masjid is named after 'Omar ibn Al-Khattāb (may Allah be pleased with him) – one of the Righteous Companions of the Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and the second Khalifah (Caliph) of Islam. 'Omar ibn Al-Khattāb was affectionately nicknamed "Al-Farooq," which refers to "one who has the ability to clearly distinguish between right and wrong" because of his strictness in enjoining good and forbidding evil.
