What is the ruling on naming a girl Khadijah, Noor, Thanaa, or Sana?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The basic principle is that it is permissible to name with any name that does not contain a -prohibited element. Therefore, there is no objection to naming with the aforementioned names. The best of them is the name Khadijah, because it is the name of the greatest Mother of the Believers, Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, may Allah be pleased with her.
