Topic: Naming a Child Fariha

(No-66002)

Q Mufti Sahib, what is the ruling on naming a child Fariha? Is it among the names of the Sahabiyat (may Allah be pleased with them all)?

aFariha (فریحہ, Fareehah) means "one who is always happy and content." The meaning of this name is sound, so it is permissible to use it. However, despite searching, this name could not be found among the names of the Sahabiyat (may Allah be pleased with them). Allah the Almighty knows best. Darul Ifta Al-Ikhlas, Karachi.

القاموس الوحید: (المادۃ: فرح، 1214/2، ط: ادارہ اسلامیات)
فرح فرحا : راضی ہونا، حدیث میں ہے :" اللہ اشد فرحا بتوبۃ عبدہ".
بکذا : خوش ہونا، قرآن پاک میں ہے: " ویومئذ یفرح المؤمنون بنصر اللّٰہ".
