The hamsa (Arabic: خمسة, romanized: khamsa, lit. 'five', referring to images of 'the five fingers of the hand'), [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] also known as the hand of Fatima , [ 4 ] is a palm-shaped amulet popular throughout North Africa and in the Middle East and commonly used in jewellery and wall hangings.
The hamsa hand can be represented in a drawing, a painting, an object, jewelry — just about anywhere in the home or on the body. There’s really no rule about who can use a hamsa.

Hongsa or Hansa is thought to refer to the bar-headed goose found in India (left) or a species of swan. [1]The Hongsa or Hansa (Sanskrit: हंस Hansa or hamsa) is an aquatic migratory bird, referred to in ancient Sanskrit texts which various scholars have interpreted as being based on the goose, the swan, [2] or even the flamingo.
The Khamsa was a popular subject for lavish manuscripts illustrated with painted miniatures at the Persian and Mughal courts in later centuries. Examples include the Khamsa of Nizami (British Library, Or. 12208) , created for the Mughal Emperor Akbar in the 1590s.
