Is it permissible to name one's son "Muhammad Amin," or is this name considered to be among the names of commendation/praise?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no objection to being named "Muhammad Amin," and this is not considered among the forbidden self-praise. These names are modern and were not previously known. The original principle for names is that they should be singular or in a possessive construct (mudaf).
