Question

I want to keep the name "Arham" for my new born son, is it a suitable for him?

Answer

The Qur'aan uses this word for Allah Ta`ala if it is with the big haa. Hence it is not right.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
