Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: We found in some of your printed fatwas that it is permissible to use the name 'Abd al-Nasir, even though al-Nasir is not one of the names of Allah. Does this mean it is permissible to worship by names other than the established ones, such as al-Jalil, al-Maqsud, and al-Hayy?
Answer:
I do not recall this. I do not remember the fatwa the questioner mentioned right now. If he is certain, he should bring us the text of the fatwa so we can look at it. Yes.
