Is the name "Samaa" forbidden or disliked in Islam?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The name "Samaa" is not forbidden by Islamic law. This is because what is prohibited is that which involves servitude to other than Allah, or that which is exclusive to Allah, or that which entails self-praise, or naming with the names of the wicked. The name "Samaa" contains none of these.
