Israaeeli names
Question
I like to know the meaning of the name Ifrahim (son of Hazrat Yusaf (alaihis salaam)? People usually say ifrahim but on net it's more like afrahim. Which is more correct in Arabic term?
Being a Muslim, is it a good name to keep?
Answer
These are all Israaeeli names. We do not know the meanings.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
