What is the ruling on naming a child "Ya Sin" or "Ta Ha"?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on naming a child Ya Sin or Ta Ha?

Answer:
It has no basis. Ya Sin are disconnected letters, and Ta Ha are disconnected letters; they are not names. Therefore, whoever thinks they are names of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) has erred in this. It is not his name Ya Sin, nor is it his name Ta Ha.
