What is the ruling on naming a female newborn "Rawah" and what are its connotations?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The name "Rawah" does not mean comfort, but rather refers to walking after midday or in the evening, which is the opposite of morning. Naming with it is permissible and there is no objection, but it is preferable to choose a name with a beautiful meaning.
