Barzakh () is a Persian word meaning "obstacle", "hindrance", "separation", or "barrier". In Islamic eschatology, it denotes a barrier separating the world of humans (heaven, earth, underworld) from the world of spirits. It can also refer to a phase/"stage" between an individual's death and their resurrection in "the Hereafter". It is also considered as a place where souls rest until the day of judgement. It bears resemblance to the intermediate state in Christianity.

Pixies are speculated to be particularly concentrated in the high moorland areas around Cornwall and Devon, suggesting some Celtic origin for the belief and name. However, the word 'pixie' (under various forms) also appears in Dorset, Somerset and to a lesser extent in Sussex, Wiltshire and Hampshire.
