Giving your child an English/western name

Recommended Posts

Blessed   

I prefer for black people not to have English names -- names like David, John, Vernon just don't suite black people and then there's the historical factor.

This goes to you and that character Nuune. The real name of the prophet wasn't Ibrahim, that's the arabic version of his name. His
real name was Abaarahiim
, which translates to ''Father of mercy''. But
Allah has mentioned him in the Qur'an as Ibrahim instead.

.

 

So when you say "Real name" vs "Name used by Allah" what you're implying is that Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala got it wrong in the Quran?

 

 

You don't want a traditional Somali name, you seem to have something against traditionally Muslim names, yet you choose to "discuss" this issue on a Somali Muslim forum. Genius.

 

Name your kid Kobayashi or North.

i'm lost for words, really. balse, this Ethiopian guy was recently telling me about 'monkey boy'. somewhere in the deep south of ethiopia, somewhere in the omo valley, there are various tribes with various customs and traditions....he spoke of the kara, mursi, hamar and nyangatom . he said, once the monkey king 'impregnated' a local woman and she borne him a son. for added value, he also said, the monkey tribes don't attack that village, because of 'monkey boy'. he said he saw the ''monkey boy'' but i think i'll leave it there because it can get very graphic.......ma garatay? :P

Saaxib, Yesterday I agreed with you on a statement you made:

 

But I agree with with Shiekh Beta Al Brunette, Wudu and Ayatul Kursi is a great shield.

and your response to that was :

 

my intentions were merely to 'remind'. its a shame you feel this way.

Here we are today, where I question Somalee on a something he/she said...with no indication what so ever on my knowledge or level of deen and here you go again with the poking and prodding.

 

You have some issue that's weighing down on you. Unburden yourself and say what's on your mind.
