Naming Oneself 'Abd al-Mu'tani
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The first question of Fatwa No. ( 10495 )
Q1: I hope you will kindly grant me a fatwa regarding my name, as I do not know whether it is one of the names of Allah (Mighty and Majestic) or not. Is it obligatory to change it to another name, or is this name permissible? It is 'Abd al-Mu'tani . I ask for your guidance and may you remain well.
A1: You must change your name; because it is not established that Allah the Exalted is named al-Mu'tani. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
