What is the ruling on naming a girl "Bana"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no harm in being named with this name, but it is from the Sunnah to improve names, because the Messenger of Allah, may Allah's prayers and peace be upon him, said: "Indeed, you will be called on the Day of Resurrection by your names and your fathers' names, so make your names good."
