Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 828/767/SD=8/1438)

(1) Yes, you may keep the name Abidah Fatimah for your daughter. Fatimah is the name of the daughter of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (may peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), while Abidah means a pious and worshiping lady.

(2) It is mustahab to shave the head on the day of Aqiqah, you may shave the head as per your ease whether before the slaughtering the animal or after it.

Q. Asak Mufti Saheb, While me and my husband were planning for a baby,we did neeyat that if we have a baby boy,we will name him after the name of Hazrat Mohammad (p.b.u.h). By the grace of Allah,through our ultrasound report we get to know that the chances of having a baby boy are higher. My question is :My husband's family name is "Ahmed" which is another name of Hzt. Mohammad(p.b.u.h).So,should I specifically keep my baby's first name after the name of Prophet Mohd.or since the surname of the baby will be Ahmed,so it fulfills our neeyat? I would appreciate your response. AH 1284 views
