Q 9: What is the ruling on naming children : `Abdul Naby (lit. Servant of the Prophet), `Abdul Masih (lit. Servant of Christ), and `Abdul Rasul (lit. Servant of the Messenger)?


A: It is impermissible as it is a form of deification of prophets and others causing people to worship them and as such entitling them untruthfully and falsely to one of the rights of Allah.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
