Shafiq was the surname of a pure-blood wizarding family, extant in at least the 1930s.[1]
The Shafiqs were included in the Pure-Blood Directory (published anonymously in Britain, although widely believed to have been authored by Cantankerus Nott), which listed them as one of the twenty-eight truly pure-blood families (the so-called 'Sacred Twenty-Eight').[1]
