Is it permissible to name a newborn "Adam Muhammad"?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
There is no impediment to being named "Adam Muhammad"; rather, it is good, due to the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Name yourselves with my name, but do not use my kunya," and his saying: "Indeed, they used to name themselves after their prophets and the righteous who came before them."
