Topic: Naming a Child Arisha Hareem

(No-66065)

Q Mufti Sahib, is it good to name a girl "Arisha Hareem"?

a"Arisha Hareem" (عریشہ حریم) is a compound name. Just as single names are permissible, compound names are also permissible. However, since the Prophet ﷺ gave his children single names, it is better to choose a single name. The word "Arisha" means a palanquin, while "Hareem" refers to a sacred thing or place. It is permissible to use this name, but since the first part of the name does not carry a meaningful or purposeful significance, it is better to choose another name with a good and clear meaning instead. Allah the Almighty knows best. Darul Ifta Al-Ikhlas, Karachi.
