What is the ruling on naming a child Sira?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The aforementioned name has no known meaning in Arabic dictionaries, and therefore, no judgment can be passed on it. A Muslim should not name their child with names whose meanings are unknown, as they might carry a bad meaning or contradict religion and morals. Well-known Islamic and Arabic names with clear meanings are sufficient, making it unnecessary to use names whose meanings are unknown.
