Sis, No one needs to change their names if / when they accept Islam, unless their names are carrying a meaning that is in clear contradiction to the belief of Islam (which is a very rare occurrence). Since Islam is a universal religion; people are encouraged to keep their cultural identities as long there is no clash with the Islamic belief. As such, a Muslim woman named Milahan or whatever would make perfect sense! However, some new muslims prefer to have a traditional muslim name after one of the prophets (Peace be upon them all) or one of the companions of prophet Muhammad PBUH. So, it's your choice. However, some comments here suggested that Milahan has a meaning in Arabic, which I don't see !! I feel Milahan is a very nice name but it doesn't have any meaning in Arabic cause there's no such word in Arabic. You may keep it sister if you see so cause it is nice !!

Assalamu alaikum Brother, I am not sure if the name with the spelling "Milahan" has an arabic meaning. But what the comments are talking about is close enough arabic name "Milhan" meaning "the pure one". In fact there was a famous companion of Prophet Muhammad PBUH called "Rumaysa Bint Milhan" . She is also known by her nickname(kunya) "Umm Sulaym Bint Milhan" . She is one the most interesting sahabiya. You can learn more about her from this Mufti Menk video: kzitem.info/news/bejne/sGpsz3l6iZ-Gh2k Jazak Allah Khair

I still stand by my comments that "Milahan" has no meaning whatsoever in Arabic. What you're trying to say is twisting the name by suggesting that Maliha is singular/ hence the plural is malihan!! It's not correct. Maliha singular becomes malihat مليحة مفرد وجمعها مليحات لأنه جمع مؤنث سالم As for Malihan مليحا it doesn't stand up to the correct language grammar as we don't have names in Arabic with the تنوين الفتح as if it is part of the name. After all I trust that sister Milahan is happy with her name even if it doesn't have a meaning in Arabic. Ther are many traditional names of Arabs that has no meaning in Arabic.

Hujurat means the rooms which were the houses of the wives of prophet Muhammad PBUH. The name of this Sura (chapter) came from one of the verses/ Ayah of this very chapter which was revealed based on a true story when some of the desert Bedouin came calling loudly for prophet Muhammad PBUH to come out so they can talk to him at the time of his day-resting. So, this chapter was revealed and it talks mainly about general manners and social etiquette and ethics muslims must be observing to be true muslims.

Backbiting/ill-talking and warning others from some evil traits of somebody are two different things. I'll give you an example of each. You have a fat friend, and you call her fat behind her back and she doesn't like to be called that way is an example of backbiting which is impermissible in Islam. You have a classmate in school who does drugs and you tell someone you know not to hang with that individual because he does drugs is not backbiting. Here you are warning someone you know from evil which is good. All of us should have that attitude.

It just emphasises that we shouldn't treat the Blessed Messenger sallAllahoo Aleihi wa Sallam, as we treat each other. So it gives in a way admonition to treat Him with reverence, by reminding readers that this is The Apostle of Allah... it's not a normal person. If we apply the logic where we respect objects and people like flags and role models, it's saying well this Man is the best of the best, so obviously treat Him better than every other creature. Then it gives guidance. It also points out that he will never himself stand up for himself and his status so We (Allah are standing up for Him through revelation) It then goes on to give advice how we should implement this in our interactions with each other. The verses were revealed when some people (I think a specific deputation of nomads) visited the Blessed Messenger and because of their lifestyles and weren't used to how urbanised arabs lived. Even within the same civilisation (Arabs) there was a broad spectrum of localised /tribal customs..

Backbiting or talking ill about someone behind their backs is one of the commonest sins unfortunately. Maybe we all did it at some time. It’s also one of the sins that the other person must forgive you for it. But it’s almost difficult to go to someone and say: I said this and that about you! Please forgive me. So, what can we do? we can repent to Allah and seek forgiveness, and we make dua’a (prayer) for this person, (like saying: oh Allah, forgive him and grant him peace and happiness..) we can give charity on their behalf without them knowing and so on. May Allah forgive us all.

Yes, generally speaking backbiting is a terrible sin. Islamically, it is important to preserve the honour of our fellow humans, however, there are certain exceptions. To look for an exception, we turn to other verses and/or the ahadeeth. According to the methodology, sometimes there are exceptions. I will just copy and paste the section from Riyadh As Saliheen for you to review : ) 256. Chapter: On what is permitted in talking about people (From Riyadh As Saliheen- an excellent compilation of ahadeeth by Imam Al Nawawi (rahimahuAllah), he first comments and then brings some hadeeth as evidence). " Know that talking about people is permitted for a sound legal reason which can only be realised by doing that. There are six reasons for which it is allowed: 1. Being a victim of injustice. The person who has been wronged is permitted to complain about that to the ruler or qadi or others in authority or those who have the power to rectify the injustice. He says, "So-and-so has wronged me." 2. Seeking help to alter something objectionable or to return someone who disobeys Allah to the correct path. He says to the one he hopes will remove what is objectionable (munkar), "So-and-so is doing such-and-such, so restrain him from it. That is allowed if his aim is to remove that objectionable. Otherwise it is forbidden. 3. Asking for a fatwa. He says to the mufti, "My father (brother, spouse or so-and-so) has wronged me by such-and-such. Can he do that? How can I be saved from it and obtain my right and remove the injustice?" This is permitted as it is legal argument, but it is better to be more circumspect and say, "What do you say about a man, person or spouse who does such-and-such?" Then he will obtain what he desires without mentioning him specifically, although it is nonetheless permitted to mention him specifically. 4. Warning the Muslims about evil and advising them. There are various forms of that. Part of that is invalidating the testimony of witnesses and transmitters. That is permitted by consensus. Indeed, it is mandatory because of need. Another instance is consultation about someone as a potential in-law, partner, keeper of a deposit or employee, or the like, or neighbour. Then the one consulted must not conceal his state and must mention his bad qualities with the aim of giving good advice. Another case is when someone sees someone learning fiqh frequenting an innovator or impious person to study with them and he fears that the student of fiqh will be harmed by that. Then he must give him good advice by explaining the person's situation, always provided that his intention is to give advice. This is something in which it is possible to err and the speaker may be moved by envy to do that and Shaytan confuses the matter for him so that he imagines that it is good advice. Another case is when someone has guardianship which he does not administer properly, either because he does not deal properly with it, or is impious or neglectful or the like. Then it is obliged to mention that to the one with general authority so that he can remove it and appoint someone who will look after it properly, or in order that he knows that about him so that he can deal with him appropriately and not be deceivedby him. 5. When someone is open about his impiety or innovation, like someone who drinks wine openly, oppresses people, imposes tollson people and taxes property unjustly and engages in false matters. What he does openly is mentioned, but it is forbidden to mention other faults he has unless it is for another justifiable cause. 6. Recognition. When a person is known by a nickname, like al-A'mash (the blear-eyed), al-A'raj (the lame), al-Asamm (the deaf), and the like, it is permitted that they be known as that but it is forbidden to use it to deprecate them. It is better if there is another way of identifying the person. These are six reasons which scholars mentioned and there is agreement on most of them. The evidence for that in sound hadithsis well-known. 1531. 'A'isha reported that a man asked permission to visit the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and he said, 'Give him permission. He is an evil brother of the tribe.'" [Agreed upon] Al-Bukhari used it as a proof for the permissibility of speaking ill of the people of corruption and people of doubt. 1532. 'A'isha reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "I do not think that so-and-so and so-and-so know anything about our deen." [al-Bukhari] Al-Layth ibn Sa'd, one of the transmitters of this hadith, said, "These two men were among the hypocrites." 1533. Fatima bint Qays said, "I went to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and said, 'Abu'l-Jahm and Mu'awiya have both proposed marriage to me.' The Messenger of Allah said, 'Mu'awiya is poor and without property. Abu'l-Jahm does not put down the staff from his shoulder.'" [Agreed upon] In a version of Muslim, "As for Abu'l-Jahm, he beats women," which explains the transmission, "He does not put down the staff from his shoulder." It is also said to mean he travels a lot. 1534. Zayd ibn Arqam said, "We went out with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, on a journey during which the people sufferedconsiderable hardship. 'Abdullah ibn Ubayy said, 'Do not spend on those who are with the Messenger of Allah so that they become disunited.' He said, 'When we return to Madina, the mightier will drive out the humbler from it.' I went to the Messenger of Allah and told him that and he sent for 'Abdullah ibn Ubayy who took a strong oath swearing that he had not said it. They said, 'Zayd has lied to the Messenger of Allah," and I felt great distress inside me because ofwhat they had said until Allah Almighty sent down a confirmation (of what I had said): 'When the hypocrites come to you...' (63). Then the Messenger of Allah , may Allah bless him and grant him peace, invited them in order to ask forgiveness for them but they arrogantly turned their heads away."[Agreed upon] 1535. 'A'isha said, "Hind, the wife of Abu Sufyan, asked the Prophet, 'Abu Sufyan is miserly and does not give me enough for me and my children unless I take it from him without his knowledge.' He said, 'Take what is reasonably enough for you and your children.'" [Agreed upon] "

Yes indeed, you said everything i wanted to write about the topic of backbiting. And this general rule of backbiting with his exceptions found in the hadiths are again a testimony and prove that the Qur'an should be interpreted in the light of the prophetic sunnah. The only thing i want to mention is that the rule of backbiting only applies to MUSLIMS. Backbiting Muslims is forbidden as the hadiths make clear and not disbelievers! Even the Qur'an makes this clear as the verse says: "...would any of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother?..." and Allah subhanahu says in verse 10 of this chapter: " THE BELIEVERS are nothing else than brothers, so make reconciliation between your two brothers ..." Brotherhood is only between Muslims as is well known. Yes ofcourse if a Believer has relatives that are disbelievers and it hurts him that people back bite those relatives than this could be forbidden because of this reason. Further does a Muslim good by not wasting his time by futile debates and in this could backbiting disbelievers for no good reason be included, but saying that this is sinful and forbidden/ haraam is something else.

You as a teacher of the book riyaad essaliheen are more than aware of the hadiths that mentions that a condition to have your honour العرض preserved is by becoming a Muslim. This ofcourse does not in any way contradict that Muslims should be just with everyone and give the good example and fulfill the pact that exists between Muslim countries and the countries of the disbelievers. ( and talking behind the back of disbelievers in an enclosed environment with only Muslims being present is as you said something that has an Islamic rule that may differ, but again it's BEST that Muslims don't waste their time with it and what is very important if they do so is that Muslims don't feel arrogant and false pride and contentment with oneself and forget God's favour that he has bestowed upon them by guiding them ).

@@dannydebruin4090 Sorry for the late reply. 1) The general ruling is that every human's honour is to protected (this includes no backbiting, no slandering, no name calling and all that comes with it). However, takhsees is done from it for certain excuses. So just like there will be times it is permissible to backbite Muslims, at times it will also be permissible to backbite Non Muslims. 2) As Imam Al Nawawi (rahimahuAllah) alludes to, one can mention the doctrinal faults of non believers and even innovators within the fold of Islam, one can warn others about them. However, it is not allowed, still, to backbite their character/appearance or any other thing. The only exception perhaps is such a non believer who, during an Islamic khilafah, is at war with the Muslims. Otherwise, it is not allowed to hurt their honour. This is a good article, www.fikhguide.com/expatriate/infidel/185 3) The hadith does not mention that honour comes from being Muslim. It simply mentions that the honour of Muslim is haram on another Muslim. The hadith also mentions that the blood and wealth of a Muslim is haram on another Muslim. Hence, by interpreting honour not being for Non Muslims here will be seriously problematic, in that it would also permit their dam and maal and that is far from the motive of the Prophet sallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam. 4) Consider this narration: وعن أنس رضي الله عنه قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: “لما عُرج بي مررت بقوم لهم أظفار من نُحاس يخمشون وجوههم وصدورهم، فقلت: من هؤلاء يا جبريل؟ قال: هؤلاء الذين يأكلون لحوم الناس، ويقعون في أعراضهم!”. ((رواه أبو داود.)) . Here, the Prophet sallAllahu 'alaihi wa sallam says يأكلون لحوم الناس , eating the flesh of the people. Al Naas is general here, it does not distinguish between Muslim and Non Muslim. 5) Muslims should demonstrate the best of manners always and this includes preserving the honour of all around them, unless it is for a shar'i reason. Some other good articles: www.islamweb.net/ar/fatwa/219355/ fatwa.islamonline.net/10551 والله أعلم بالصواب

A name is the most important symbol that identifies one person from another. It is also the word heard most often in a person's life, so for this reason everyone wants to have nice name with a good meaning. Islam gives much importance to the choosing of a good name. The Prophet (pbuh) as well as choosing good names (1) made it quite clear in this hadith (saying of the Prophet) "On the day of resurrection, you will be called by your names and by your fathers names so give yourselves good names" (2) This shows the importance of having a name with a good meaning even on the day of resurrection. In Islam one of the main duties a father has to his child is giving him a righteous name. NAMES GIVEN BY THE PROPHET AND THEIR CHARACTERISTICS: The Companions of the Prophet would take their new born, unsuckled babies to the Prophet who would soften a date by chewing it and rub a piece of the date on to the roof of the newborn's mouth. The Prophet then making a prayer would name the child. When choosing a name, its prominent characteristics should be taken into consideration. When we look at the names given by the Prophet, we see that they were mainly the names of past prophets like Ibrahim or the names of Allah like Abdullah, "servant of Allah" which entails confession of submission and Abdurrahman which has confession of compassion to all creatures. NAMES CHANGED BY THE PROPHET a. Names with a bad meaning: For instance the Prophet changed the name that Khuzay (a member of the Ansar) gave to his son (3) and told him "Give him the name Munthir" (4). The Prophet also changed the names Al-As, Aziz, Atalah, Shaytan, Hakam, Gurab, Habab and Shihab. Shihab was changed to Hisham, Harb (war) to Silm (peace) and Al-Mudtaji (one who lies) to Al-Munbaith (one who stands up) the Prophet also changed the name of the land Afrah (barren) to Khadrah (green) and Shi'b ad-Dalalah (the mountain path of stray) to Shi'b al-Huda (the mountain path of guidance) Banu az-Zinyah (children of fornication) to Banu ar-Rushdah (children of those on the right path) and Banu Mughwiyah (children of a woman who allures and goes astray) and called them Banu Rushdah (children of a woman who is on the right path)(5) These names without doubt were changed by the Prophet because of their ugly meanings; Hubab, because it means a kind of snake or Shaytan and Shihab which means to burn like fire (6). It is a fact that hearing something over and over again, even if it is disapproved of becomes normal. A saying that is kept within borders is less harmful but if the same thing is used freely on a daily basis, they become a normal practice, and would be of much more harm. Names like Aziz, Kadir and Sammad looking at the above are unapproved of and should be used as Abdul-Aziz, Abdul-Kadir, Abdussamad. These are names of Allah and therefore should not be shortened. The Prophet changed names of this kind. (7) For instance 'Aziz', one of the names of Allah, alone is not a suitable name, but should be Abdul-Aziz. Here 'abd' means 'servant,' therefore, the servant of Allah. b. Names of a nice meaning changed for a better name: Among some of the names changed by the Prophet were also names with nice meanings but when we look at these names, they either made a bad impression on their owners or the people around them. For example the name Barrah (righteous, dutiful) was changed by the Prophet to Zainab "Allah knows the good ones among you" which means do not think with the name Barrah you are among the good "Therefore justify not yourselves" (8),"Allah knows better than everyone the good ones among you" (9). According to the hadith, Zainab bin Ebi Salame's former name was Barrah and people around her said that "By that she is giving herself the prestige of piety" (10). Hearing this the Prophet changed her name, meaning that this name was not a bad name, but that names with the meaning of 'Pride or Arrogance' were not suitable because some names affect the characteristics of a person as in this verse "Therefore justify not yourselves, he knows best who it is that guards against evil." (11) c. Names against unification: The Prophet made it clear that the names Abdullah and Abdurrahman given to newly born babies with the meanings of unity and servant of Allah were names most liked by Allah (12) but names with the opposite meaning like "Malik Al-Amlak (king of kings)" were among the names detested by Allah (13) because "there's no king other than Allah" (14). As we can see, this kind of a name is against the unity of Allah and is a form of shirk. The Importance and Responsibility of Naming a Child It is one of the main duties of a mother and father to give their child a name with a good meaning; giving a name that has a bad meaning is makhruh (disliked by Allah) and should be avoided. The names like Malik Al-Amlak are against the unity of Allah. Names with similar meanings are haram (religiously forbidden) and are not to be used. Nobody is capable of naming himself at birth. The responsibility of giving a child a good name is to the one's who are answerable to this, being its parents. The Order of Changing Name It is possible to separate names that should be changed into three categories: the ones against the unity of Allah, names that have a bad meaning and names with a good meaning that change the character of a person. It is sunnah (practice of the Prophet) and required in Islam that names should have a good meaning and any name that is against the unity of Allah is haram and if unknowingly a child has been given a name like this, it must be changed. This brings to mind Abdullah b. Salam who, when changing his name and religion, asked "Does everyone who changes his religion also have to change his name?" It is not the name that is important, but it is the meaning. If the name has a nice meaning and will not affect in anyway the person's faith or character, it does not need to be changed, but if this name has any symbolic remembrance to his late religion, then it should be changed.

One is not allowed in Islam to talk about the ill (unknown) bad habit/s the others have unless he is harmed by it then he is allowed, not preferable, to speak about it w/o exaggerations like self defence from the harm of this guy.

to mention one's brother/sister with what they would hate. that is eating the flesh of their dead bodies - dead because it's happening behind their backs. that's when they actually do have that bad habit/manner or did that bad action, or said that bad thing. but if one is making it up, that is next level evil. you need to be approached and asked (for good reason) like if someone wants to marry a sister of yours and asked you, now you're obliged to tell whatever you think will harm the relationship. Or you could take the initiative to prevent harm. it's like you said, the intention, if you're for example said you shouldn't marry her for this and that, because you hate her that's the bad, we should do it for the sake of allah almighty. when ever you find yourself about to say something about someone (that they will hate) you need to stop and ask yourself am i doing it for gossip, to waste sometime, to have fun, because i hate them? this is when we should fight ourselves to shut up. and man this is really hard. takes years of practice and discipline, all with the help of the almighty.

(If someone wants to marry and asked you, now you're OBLIGED to tell what you think will harm the relationship) @ Mohammad Hani, fear God, you've just abolished the core of the Islamic ethics.. he who believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him speak good or remain silent.. and if anyone covers up a Muslim (his sins), Allah will cover him up (his sins) on the Resurrection Day.. Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "A Muslim is a brother of (another) Muslim, he neither wrongs him nor does hand him over to one who does him wrong. If anyone fulfills his brother's needs, Allah will fulfill his needs; if one relieves a Muslim of his troubles, Allah will relieve his troubles on the Day of Resurrection; and if anyone covers up a Muslim (his sins), Allah will cover him up (his sins) on the Resurrection Day" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "He who believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him show hospitality to his guest; and he who believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him maintain good relation with kins; and he who believes in Allah and the Last Day, let him speak good or remain silent."

@@mhDuke (If someone asked to marry your daughter) Ok, let us see :) 1 - Ask his neighbor, well who tells you that his neighbor is telling the truth? 2 - If your criteria for your daughter's future husband is : he should pray, not smoking weed, and not drinking wine.. that kind of person you should be able to make a decision just by looking at him :) 3 - If he is good at hiding his real character, a brief conversation will tells you more then you need, to get him off the list :) 4 - Your daughter should be educated enough to determine by herself and rejecting the offer of that person.. and remember (education is under 15 yo) otherwise try to reason with her and ask god to help you on that.. 5 - Think of what will happen if this person knows that his neighbor is behind your rejection.. maybe a dangerous fight will occur.. or a deep depression.. knowing that not only i've been rejected by her family.. but my neighbors sees me as a bad person.. just think of that.. maybe he is a bad person.. just dismiss him gently, and leave it between you and him, don't involve others..

@@kapssul ok your list makes sense. however, I have a duty toward my daughter that i help her making the decision by gathering information we wouldn't easily know by simply talking to the guy. i think this is cultural thing now. but we're talking sharia. if yourself were approached by someone telling you he is about to go into business partnership with a friend of yours, asked you whether your friend is to be trusted. and you knew your friend cheats day and night. given you made some effort to know the man approached you is not making this up, it is OBLIGATORY for you to communicate the cheating behavior of your friend. evidences by the ton. think about the gathering of hadith and biographical evaluation. think about the testimony in general you will find many evidences in the quran and sunnah. may allah alwadud fogive me and you and the entire ummah.
