Naming by the Rainbow
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a prohibition against naming [a child] "Rainbow," and what is its lawful name?
Answer:
This has passed by us, I think, in *Zad al-Ma'ad*. I do not remember what the Shaykh said about it, but naming it "Rainbow" has no basis in what I know. It is not called by this name or that name.
