First: In the Arabic language, "Rabiyah" signifies elevation, height, increase, and includes growth, abundance, and temporal increase.
Second: "Rabiyah" is an Arabic name used by some Arabs, but it is not widespread.
Third: A parent should choose a good name for their child. If the name "Rabiyah" does not have an ugly or reprehensible meaning in their custom, then there is no objection to naming with it.
