Question
A man in our area named his son 'Abdun Nabi'. Want to know if this name is valid? Will faith be lost because of the meaning of 'servant of the prophet'? 6229574311
Answer
- حامداومصلياومسلما، بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم -
It is not permissible to use the name 'Abdun Nabi'. It is forbidden to have such a name in Hadith Sharif. ‘Abd’ means servant slave. People are servants of God, not messengers. At the beginning of the name of Allah, the name can be added only by adding 'Abd'. Abdullah, Abdur Rahman, Abdul Karim etc. And since the word abad is also used in the following sense, there is no room for such an interpretation, so the name will not be destroyed by faith. 3281223952
