@1: Ali is also a name of Allah. Most names of Allah can be used as names, including Walee.

Al-Wali is used when referencing Allah swt. Anyway we named my boy Muhammad Wali, one of the names of Nabi saw. Then I came to find the verse of “wilayat”. 5:55

It’s a great name, but has multiple uses that may confuse the inept. Infact Allah swt refers to himself as the only Waali as in supreme guardian protector. But also insinuates that people can be wali of each other. Shaitan has awliya also as per the Quran Al Karim. But the most outstanding example I find is 5.55. such a nice number too. It outlines a brotherhood or group of sorts with Allah on top. And I want my boy to be a part of that inshallah.

Awliya comes from the Serbian Bosnian phrase for the courtyard the Avlija. Its meaning is exactly that the land around the house.
