  • in reply to: Malaika name is permissible #125766

    She may keep it. In general, once a person is known by a name, even if the name has a negative meaning or the name is not recommended, there is no need to change it. The rule for choosing good names only applies to naming newborns.

    For information on Aariz please type it in the search box. There is no such Arabic name as Aarham, you probably mean Arham, which you can find by searching for it on our website using the search box.

    in reply to: Girl name meaning Mafazah #123438

    Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

    I don’t know where you live, but in Arabic it is Mafazah. In Turkish, it becomes Mafazat. Other cultures may pronounce it otherwise. But the Arabic is Mafazah, like Fatimah and Khadijah.

    in reply to: How do I write \"Elsa\" in arabian.? #123433

    If you are referring to the name Elsa mentioned on our site, it would be written as إلسا in the Arabic alphabet.

    Note that this is a Persian name, not Arabic or “arabian”.

    in reply to: Correct meaning #123430

    Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

    According to the Sultan Qaboos Encyclopedia of Arab Names, and according to the 13th century dictionary Al-Ubaab al-Zaakhir by the scholar al-Saghaani, Affan comes from the root Afafa (Ain-F-F), rather than Afana (Ain-F-N), and means “virtuous”, “modest”, “chaste”, “pure”. Other common names that are derived from the same root as Affan are Afeef and Afaaf (same meaning as Affan) and Iffah (“modesty”, “chastity”).

    in reply to: meaning and islamic opinion. #123429

    Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

    There is nothing wrong with the name Nadiyya. There are many common Sahabiyyah names (such as Fatimah and Khadijah) that do not have a meaning related to Islam. Nadiyyah means “fresh”, “lush”, “bountiful”, though its literal meaning is “wet from rain” (something that is wet due to rain). However, it is possible you are referring to Naadiyah, which has the same meanings as Nadiyyah, but also has the meaning of “call”, “proclamation”.

    Mardiyyah, which can also be written as Marziyyah, means “content”, and also means “someone who has earned Allah’s favor and pleasure”. This too is a good name.

    in reply to: Good naming for own #123428

    Mehnoor means “moonlight” (Persian), Rabeeba means “queen” (Arabic), though it also means “step-daughter”. Afsan means “legend” (Persian).

    in reply to: Name Pronounciation #123417

    No, the right pronunciation is [(U)p] + [(MA)n] + [(N)eck + p(ULL)] + [A(LLAH)], there is no stress on the “m”. It can be said as Amaanullah or Amaanallah.

    in reply to: Is HADI name on its own permitted? #123411

    Alaikumassalam,

    Yes, it is permitted. Hadi is like Ali, they are both names of Allah, but they can be used without the “Abdul”.

    in reply to: Good naming for own #123410

    Yes it is an acceptable name.

    in reply to: Girl name meaning #123409

    Mafaz and Mafazah both mean “victory”, “success”. Mafaz is for boys and Mafazah for girls. Mafazah can also be pronounced as Mafazat.

    Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

    Ahyan is an acceptable name for a Muslim child as it does not have a bad meaning. It means “moments”, “instances”, “times”.

    Mohammed Ahyan is also acceptable.

    in reply to: name #123405

    Alaikumassalam wa rahmatullah,

    Aydee Arham is an acceptable name.

    in reply to: Names & personality. #123390

    According to Islam a child’s name has no effects on his/her behavior or personality. There are no verses in the Quran or authentic hadeeth that say baby names have any effect on personality.

    in reply to: ASA, Hairum word meaning #123388

    Alaikumassalam,

    What language is that from?

    Jayden is an artificial name without a meaning. You may use it since it doesn’t have a bad meaning.

    in reply to: MEANING OF رجلة #123386

    Rajulah does mean a woman who is like a man one way or another. As the name doesn’t have a particularly good meaning, it is best to avoid it.

    in reply to: The meaning of Shahzain Aqlan #123385

    Shahzain means “most handsome”, “most beautiful”, and Aqlan means “intelligent”, “able to understand”, “wise”. Both are good names and can be used together. They do not create a new meaning.

    in reply to: Shumaysah meaning and origin,any Quranic root? #123384

    Shumaysah comes from the SH-M-S (“Sun”) root, which is used in the Quran. It is the feminine diminutive of Shams (“Sun”), thus meaning “little Sun”.

    Shumaisah bint Aziz has narrations in Sahih al-Bukhari.

    in reply to: Name meaning #123383

    Mehreen means “like the Sun” (i.e. “radiant”), and Aatirah means “perfumed”, “having a good scent”. Both are good names, therefore it is acceptable to name your daughter that.

    in reply to: vinetta #123382

    Vinetta means “little vineyard”. It is an acceptable name for Muslims as it does not have a bad meaning.

    in reply to: Adil Mohammed #123381

    Adil means “fair and just”, and there is no issue with having it in front of Mohammed.

    in reply to: whats meaning of adifaah? #123380

    That sounds very unfamiliar. Where did you see it?

    The only Quranic name that refers to the sky is Samaa as far as we know. There is also Fazaa, which means “space”.

    Muslims can also use the Persian name Aasemaan, which means “sky”.
