Question

My dear Shaykh, I kept the name Muhammad Abdullah al Fawwaz for my baby boy with doing akika. I would like to know if the name Fawwaz is a suitable name and if not can it be changed. If you kindly provide me with the Arabic spelling of the full name I kept for my baby. Requesting for your du'a for my child and for my family.

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykumwa-rahmatullāhiwa-barakātuh.

The name Muhammed Abdullah Fawwaz is a suitable name for your son.

The Arabic spelling of the full name is:

فَوّاز محمّد عبد الله : فوّاز;means “winner” “successful”. It is derived from the root word فوز “to win”, “to be successful”.

May Allah Ta’ala make your son the coolness of your eyes. Ameen.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
