Assalamu alaukum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh

There are many books on suitable muslim names which could be obtained from Islamic Book Shops. If you are in the
Durban
area you may go to our official bookstore-Al Inaam Bookshop in Crescent Street opposite Musjid Al Hilaal. You may also conduct a search on muslim names on this site.

Ask AskImam

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
