Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa number ( 17847 )
Q2: What is the Shari'ah's view, in your opinion, regarding naming with these names: ('Abd al-Nasir, 'Abd al-Ilah, 'Abd al-Muhsin, 'Abd al-'Ati) ?
A2: The terms (al-Muhsin) and (al-Ilah) are among the names of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He), whereas the terms: (al-Nasir) and (al-'Ati) are not among the names of Allah the Exalted. Therefore, it is not permissible to use them in the form of 'Abd (servant). And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
