Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a woman asking: I want my son to name his first daughter after me, and her maternal aunt also wants him to name her after her. What is obligatory for the married son toward his mother in this matter?
Answer:
He has no obligation. If he names her after his mother, there is no harm in that, and it counts as obedience to his mother. If he names her with any other name that has no objection, there is no harm in that either. Yes.
