As-salāmu ʿalaykum wa raḥmatullāhi wa barakātuh, I address you with respect and sincerity, seeking guidance and clarity from an Islamic perspective. My name is Dunia, and I am currently developing a professional project focused on luxury travel, exclusive tourism, events, and concierge services. My sincere intention is to serve my clients with excellence, to offer memorable experiences, and—if Allah wills—to dedicate my future earnings to support charitable and halal causes. The purpose of this message is to kindly request your advice regarding the current name of my company: Ambrosio Experiences. I am aware that the name “Ambrosio” has Greek origins and is associated with meanings such as “immortality” or “food of the gods.” As a Muslim, I firmly believe that there is no deity but Allah (Subḥānahu wa Taʿālā), who is perfect and in no need of sustenance. I never intended to promote or associate any divine attributes with anything or anyone other than Allah. When I chose the name, I was simply drawn to its sound. A colleague also liked it, so we selected it. It was only later that I learned of its original meaning. I interpreted it poetically as “unforgettable or lasting experiences,” not in any literal or theological sense. However, I am now concerned—out of love and fear of Allah—that the name may be inappropriate, or even considered haram or bordering on shirk (may Allah protect us). My only wish is for this project to be halal, pure, and blessed—free of anything that may displease Allah or prevent barakah in my efforts. For this reason, I respectfully seek your opinion: • Is the current name Islamically permissible (halal) considering its origin and context? • Or would it be better and more advisable to change the name to something entirely free of such associations, so that the project may be fully blessed and protected, in shāʾ Allāh? I would be deeply grateful for any guidance, fatwa, or advice you can offer. May Allah reward you abundantly for your knowledge, your time, and your sincere help to others in the Ummah. Wa-jazākum Allāhu khayran wa barakallāhu fīkum.

Assalamualaikum, We named our son Kabeer (one of Allah’s names) before naming him, we did our long research and named him without ABDUL. Now we’re hearing from different people, we have to add ABDUL before his name since it’s Allah’s name. As far as my knowledge, their are 7 names of ALLAH, we have to have add ABDUL and his name is not one of them. Please help us out do we have to add ABDUL or my son name doesn’t required ABDUL. Thank you so much,

السلام عليكم وعلى بيتكم Can we say "Alahis salam" or “salam Allah aliha” after the blessed names of the compainions of the Holy Prophet(صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ) and his ahul bayt? (Also, I’m kinda asking the Maliki school’s view on this kinda)

I have a question about this thing Is the name "Kris" or "Kristen" Haram in islam or not?

Recently I was talking to a Jewish friend about which religion has more claim to Palestine. He was claiming that Jews do, since Jews come from Judea (an area in Palestine) and it was called this for a long time. I told him that there is proof that it was called Palestine for many thousands of years and there is much proof. But there is no mention of the name "Palestine" in the Qur'an. So I was wondering: **What is the proper name for Palestine, in the Muslim tradition?**

It is common knowledge that Islam considers the Hebrew bible to be the Holy word of God. I would therefore like to know if Muslims ever refer to Allah as אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל - "The God of Israel", which is how He refers to Himself over 190 times in Tanach? If not, why not? If yes, what does it mean in Islam? ---------- Note: this is an honest **religious** question aimed at deepened understanding of Islam, **not** a political one.

As Salam Aleikhum I am very curious In the bible and torah it is mentioned that many prophets the well known of them isaac ishmael john and jesus peace and blessings of Allah be on them all were given names form Allah by sending angel Gabriel to the parents to pronounce the name so my quetion is this even though it is written in ancient scriptures that a prophet will come whose name will be Ahmad or Muhammad How did the parents Abdulha and Ameena keep the name Muhammad or Ahmad did angel Gabriel come to the parents and anounce proclaim to them you shall name this child Muhammad for Allah has chosen this name Muhammad as it was like that in the case of most prophets in bible and torah in the quran also it is mentioned about angel Gabriel comming down and anouncing names at that time also the name Muhammad was very new ven I wouldnt have taught of the name if I was livng then Jazak Allahu Khair forgive me for my curiosity

It's said that surah 80 of the Quran is revealed in regards to [Ibn Umm Maktum](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibn_Umm_Maktum) . My question is about the meaning of the name of this person. I'm not Arab. As much as I know, Ibn means son, and Umm means mother. So, this confuses me. Does his name literally means son of the mother of Maktum? Is it a strange linguistic feature of classical Arabic?

Is it permissible for someone to have their father's first name as their surname in Islam, instead of their father's surname as their surname?

My name is Abdul Rahman, I want to change it to Abdur-Rahman as this is the way it is supposed to be pronounced in Arabic. Would this be permissible if I did?

Are we allowed to wear shoes with my name Zakariya (زکریا) on them as my shoes are personalised is that haram?

Christians and Jews always accuse Muslims of not having a personal name for God. They say that "Allah" just means "The God", whereas YHWH is a personal name for God. Do we have a personal name for God?

Assalamualaikum , I wanted to know that is it haram to name someone " Rose " or " Rosario " ? I thought the name " Rose " means the " Queen of flower " so maybe it's permitted .

I heard before if it's meaning is good then no names are haram , but recently I heard that it is haram to name someone " Rose " or "Rosario " . I really liked this names but now I am confused . Please help me .

Assalamu alaikum I’ve had the given name ‘Naufal’ since childhood. I’m an adult now and for the first time I have enquired the origins of my name. And the only individual in Islamic history who shares my given name that I can find is **Nawfal ibn Khuwaylid**. Who is described thus: > However, Nawfal opposed Muhammad and was known as "a satan of the > Quraysh". At one time he bound Abu Bakr and Talha ibn Ubayd-Allah with > a rope. Due to this, those two became known as Al-Qareenayn, "the two > tied together". > > He was killed by Ali during the battle of Badr in 624. The only other I know of is Waraqah ibn Nawfal. Does my name truly only have this origin in Islamic history? Please lend me some advice dear brothers and sisters, if this is the only origin in our history, then I would consider changing it, despite what it costs me. I want my name to match my faith. Jazak Allah Khair

The names of seven heavens and hells in Arabic. I know a few of them. Hell I know only one which is for Muslims. What about Christians, Jews, pretenders, magicians and idol worshipers? *Please give names in Arabic only if possible in script.*

Assalamualaikum, I came across this unique and beautiful name while searching for unique sahaba names , and was pleased to see in another website that it means “worshiper of Allah“. Wikipedia is showing that Al-ahnaf(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahnaf_ibn_Qais) means the clubfooted. Do Ahnaf and Al-ahnaf mean same? Kindly explain as I have already kept my baby’s name Ahnaf Islam.

My name is MD Sadiqur Rahman. My name contains 'Rahman' which is one of the name which only belongs to Allah. Is there anything wrong if someone calls me with this name?

In most ancient Semitic languages and times, it seems that a person was usually known by their name followed by "son of [their father's name]." Is there a reason, **besides the virgin birth,** that Isa ibn Maryam is identified as the son of **Mary** in the Qur'an (i.e. a woman, the mother; e.g. such as the high devotion Christians had at the beginnings of Islam for Mary the mother of Jesus), rather than, say, David, as Jesus is in the New Testament (it being, as far as I know, almost unheard of that a man is identified as the son of his mother specifically unless the context makes it relevant)?

Are 'rahman' and 'ghafoor' synonymous or different according to Islamic literature? I searched online and found similar meanings for these two ('Gracious' & 'Forgiving' respectively). What do the Islamic scriptures say in this regard?
