What is the meaning of my names "Hiba" and "Rida," and is it permissible to be named by them?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no objection to naming with "" (gift) and "Rida" (contentment); their meanings are acceptable and do not contradict Islamic law. "Hibah" means giving something without compensation, and "Rida" means acceptance and contentment, the opposite of displeasure.
