Which Islamic Name Would You Like To Give Your Children? by Lukgaf(op): 8:25am On Dec 01, 2017
It is expected of us to give our children good names as a Sunnah of our noble Prophet Muhammad SollaLahu Alae Wosalam, it is even allowed to call or ascribe a name of a child to yourself even if you are still a bachelor/spinster or you're yet to give birth to any.

To this end, it is advisable for one to select from the best names and not from those without meaning. Names like Abdulah, Abdurahmon, Abdraheem, Muhammad, Abdgafar and others are good names you can choose from.

I hope Sissie will not choose Mukina2 or Lukgaf as his child's Islamic name when there are numerous meaningful names are available.

So which will you prefer to give your children? Let's hear from you.

It's so pathetic that some Muslims so shopping for ''sweet sounding/uncommon" names. Names like Jamal, hadiza and co.

I once asked a mother what her child's name is and she replied Abdul Jamal...

I think we really need enlightenment.

I like the names Muhammad, Abdullah, Sumaiyah, Nusaybah, Hassan, Hussain, Ubadah, Jaabir,...

Fiqh 101

I saw the name on the internet!

We were honored with the admonition at the 'aqeeqah of one of our brothers recently.

So, it was time to make the newly born girl's name apparent to the public. The name was passed across to me on a sheet of paper while the father stood beside me to pronounce it.

I however ran a quick scan through the Muslim name and the other cultural names.

The Muslim name got me worried. It read: Shakaayah!

I whispered to the brother that: Where did you get the name? He said: Ustaadh! I saw it on the internet! And no meaning was given there? He remained dumbfounded!

Then I informed him that the name has no morphological conjugation in Arabic language and therefore has no meaning!

He quickly whispered (as people waited patiently): Okay Ustaadh! Can we change the name then? What names do you think?

I said: You have at your disposal: 'aaishah, khadeejah, hafsah, aasiyah etc.

He said: Aasiyah is okay in shaa Allaah!

Muslims should be wary of the tribulation of seeking after uncommon and unique names!

Just imagine if it was the common ignorant ones that coordinated the 'aqeeqah? The girl will have been named shakaayah ignorantly!

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

# So, ask the people of knowledge (Scholars) if you indeed know not #

Hadiza is the corrupted version of Khadija.

Abdul is added to names of Allah to make it a name of one of His creations.

for example Abdul + Allah = Abdullah

Abdul + Rahman = Abdur-Rahman

But Khalid is not a name of Allah.

Let your friends call you Khaalid and feel free to explain this analysis to them.

Khalid ibn al Walid was one of the companions of our Prophet salallahu alayhi wasalam with profound military tactics & prowess. Infact, one of the finest generals in history. May Allah bless the Sahabahs and show us all his mercy(by seeing Him)!
