Naming a child Salih
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of fatwa number ( 21490 )
Q1: I vowed that if I am blessed with a son, I will name him (Saliha). The mother said: It is not permissible to name him with two names, because his uncle is already named with this name.
A1: There is no harm in naming the newborn with a name that matches the name of a living relative, and the common people’s claim that this is prohibited has no basis. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
