It is the common practice of Muslims only to give their  children names which are common in the Muslim society. Sometimes people  even prefer their local culture in this regard and their practice has  never been disapproved. Therefore there is nothing wrong with naming  children in the proposed way. Only thing that is important is that one  should not give his offspring such names as to reflect the negation of  the Islamic beliefs for example naming after a deity. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-01-01<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6073\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can we name a Muslim child by name with Islamic spirit but in French language form e.g elsa meaning blessed by Allah?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14147,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1177],"tags":[1577,1741,1568,1697,1415],"class_list":["post-6073","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-islamic-customs","tag-children","tag-islamic-names","tag-language","tag-name","tag-naming-children"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
