Naming with a Verse

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A questioner asks: What is the ruling on naming someone with a verse?

Answer:
Do you mean his name is "Ayah"? Is that it? There is no objection. Or do you mean the Shi'ah who say "Ayatollah"? That is a title among the Shi'ah, yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh!
