Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Choosing names for children, such as Afnan or Aala, from the Qur'an: is there any harm in that?
The Shaykh : The discussion is about the name itself: is there any prohibition in it?
If there is, it is not permissible to name a child with it, whether it appears in the Qur'an or not. However, if there is no prohibition in it, there is nothing wrong with using it, whether it is from the Qur'an or not.
