Maaiz or Maaez (ماعز) - a Sahabi’s name

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

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

In Islam we are encouraged to give meaningful names to our children. Shariah placed a great importance in choosing names.

Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has mentioned:

Abu Darda (Radhiyallahu Anhu) narrates: The Prophet (Sallallahu Alyahi Wasallam) said: On the Day of Resurrection you will be called by your names and by your father's names, so give yourselves good names. (Abu Dawud-4948)

Maaiz or Maaez (ماعز) was a Sahabi’s name. It is a suitable name to keep.

Emaanah or Amaanah (امانة) means trust. It is also a suitable name to keep.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
