Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to name a child "Kaleem Allah" (the one who spoke to Allah), or do we say that this name is specific to the Prophet Musa (peace be upon him)?
Answer:
Is there anyone other than Musa who is "Kaleem Allah" (the one who spoke to Allah)? No, there is no one. "Khalil Allah" (the intimate friend of Allah) is not to be used as a name; it is not permissible. This is specific to Ibrahim and Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). Yes.
