Is it permissible to name a girl or a newborn "Gharam," or not?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

It is not recommended to name a newborn girl "Gharam" because its meanings include: perpetual evil, constant torment, debt, love, infatuation, and that which cannot be rid of. This is supported by the Almighty's saying: (Indeed, its torment was perpetual), and the Hadith: "I seek refuge in You from sin and debt (maghram)."
