Sakina
Just saw this name on a woman’s name tag in a store, thought it was interesting. It’s supposed to be of Arabic origin but I think she was of Albanian or Kosovan descent since her tag also indicated she spoke Albanian.

I think it's super pretty!! I'd add it to my PNL, but I try to limit similar names, and I already have Sabrina and Sakura.
There was a girl in my year at school with this name but she spelled it Sakine and her parents were from Turkey.

Albania is a predominantly Muslim country so I would guess that some Albanians have Muslim or Arabic names. There are many Albanians living in Kosovo too and Kosovo is mostly made up of Muslims as well. I think Sakina is unusual but it sounds pretty.
