Keeping the name Aleef Taseen
Question
We want to name our baby boy, Alif Taseen. But we are confused about how to spell it correctly! Should it be "Aleef Taseen" or "Alif Taseen" which is more correct?
Answer
There is a word as Aleef. We have not come across Taseen.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
