Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, says: Regarding the saying of the Exalted and Glorious, “So let him call his assembly,” he asks: Is it derived from this?

The Shaykh:
This is a threat. This is a command intended as a threat. Is it derived from this?

The questioner:
Is the prohibition against naming a daughter Nadiyyah derived from this?

The Shaykh:
No, it is not derived from this. It is not derived from this. “His assembly” (nadiyyahu) comes from “nada” (dew), and it is not from “nadi” (the gathering). A girl is not named Nadi meaning the place of gathering. She is not named Nadiyyah, meaning from the dew. Yes.
