When I supplicate against someone, should I mention their name?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If you supplicate against someone justly, there is no harm in mentioning their name. In Al-Bukhari, it is narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) named those disbelievers from Quraish who harmed him and supplicated against them, such as Abu Jahl and Utbah ibn Rabi'ah. They were killed on the day of Badr.
