Question

Is making fun of the name "Maryam" kufr?

I mean if one was to say Maryam Taryam and laugh, is it kufr. Taryam means dust-bin in Algerian language.

Answer

No, but avoid this.

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.
