Topic: Naming a Child Tamanna

(No-66086)

Q Mufti Sahib, can I name my daughter Tamanna?

aTamanna (تمنا) is an Urdu word. Its Arabic equivalent in meaning is "Raja'a" (رجاء), which was the name of a Sahabiyat. It is therefore preferable to use the name Raja'a. However, if someone wishes to use the name Tamanna on account of its meaning, there is room for that as well. Allah the Almighty knows best. Darul Ifta Al-Ikhlas, Karachi.
