Yes, WhatsApp is owned, operated and developed by Meta the owners of Facebook. Additionally all apps available on the App Store are screened by Apple. It is not malicious however you should consult the Privacy Policy of WhatsApp if you're concerned regarding how your information is processed and used.
WhatsApp is encrypted end to end, so for the most part yes, it’s quite secure.
WhatsApp is an app provided by Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Messenger and Instagram. Millions upon millions of users use this app, myself included. It is safe to use.
I suppose "safe" depends on whether and how far you trust Meta...
Just because millions of people use it doesn't make it "safe"...
WhatsApp has suffered numerous breaches and serious security problems resulting in leaked / stolen user account information and data in the last few years.
It may be fine for some, but I personally don't trust it or Meta.

I have never had an issue with WhatsApp. I change my password regularly and as messaging service, it works just fine.
