Keeping the name Inabia
Question
I kept my daughters name Inabia. I checked its meaning from the internet. It means "one who turn stowards Allah" and it is an Arabic word. When I asked the Arab people working with me on the ship, they said that they never heard this name and they don't know the meaning. Please explain whether this name is correct or should I change it.
Answer
Instead of Inabia, keep Muneebah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
