Is there any transgression or otherwise in being named Habiba?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no objection to naming a child "Habibah"; in fact, it may even be commendable, as many female companions (Sahabiyat) were named Habibah, including Habibah bint Kharijah, the wife of Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq, and Habibah bint Abi Umamah As'ad ibn Zurarah.
