Naming a child 'Abd al-Awwal and 'Abd al-Akhir
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it necessary that the name 'Abd al-Awwal be paired with al-Akhir, so that one says 'Abd al-Awwal wa al-Akhir?
Answer:
Regarding the naming with 'Abd al-Awwal, it is better to leave it; that is, one does not combine them by saying 'Abd al-Awwal wa al-Akhir. So, leave this; do not name him 'Abd al-Akhir, nor 'Abd al-Awwal. The names of Allah are many, yes. Name him with something else, yes.
