Q 6: What is the ruling on
naming some movies after Ayahs (Qur’anic verses), such as:
Verily, your Lord is Ever Watchful (over them).
...and be dutiful and good to parents
By the night when it darkens (and stand still).
? What is the ruling on religious and national songs and post-classical Arabic poetry?
A:
It is not permissible to name movies after Ayahs. This is considered a slight to the Qur’an and an obscuring of reality.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
