Islamic Names: Choosing Beautiful and Honorable Muslim Names for Your Child

Understanding the profound significance of naming in Islamic tradition and how to choose meaningful names for your children.

The Significance of Islamic Names

In Islam, selecting a name for a child holds great significance. Islamic names and Muslim names are synonymous, as they both refer to the names given to individuals following the religion revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The origin of "Islam" and "Muslim" lies in the Arabic verb s-l-m.

Islamic Naming Traditions

When a child is born into a Muslim family or an individual embraces Islam, it is customary to give them a new name, often in Arabic. Many factors are considered when choosing a name, including the names of prophets, names derived from the Asmaul Husna (Names of God), historical names, as well as traditional and modern options.

Prophetic Guidance

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) himself emphasized the importance of selecting names with positive and beautiful meanings. He even advised people to change their names if they held unpleasant connotations. Giving your child the best possible name is a cherished practice within the Islamic faith.

Why Muslims Need a Good Name

In Islam, naming a child (Tasmiyah) is a Sunnah and a parent’s responsibility.
