Using taps and showers with the name "Idrees"

· 19 Jumada I 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

Recently we noticed that the newly installed taps and showers have the name of a company called 'idrees' embossed on each one of them. Since it is the name of one of the Nabis (عليهم السّلام), so we would like to enquire as to what should be done?

Answer

Since the name Idrees intended is the name of the company, there is no problem.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
