was actually going to start a new thread about this and then I saw this... is it halal or haram? or is it makruh? also - what are the views in this case on the 'scholars' who smoke or have smoked in the past.
(salam) ya ali madad how do y'all choose names for your children? i remember a hadith saying the house with a 'mohamed' in it is blessed. dont know if its true, but whats in a name. obviously, one wouldnt want to name his son muawiyah. but i have met several shias with names such as ayisha, omar etc. what do you think - obviously not everyone can call there son ali and mohamed, fatimah zainab
ramazan is incorrect as far as arabic an the quran are concerned. The letter "Ö" 'DHad' is different from 'dal' (d) and zayn (z). The letter dhad is commonly pronounced incorrectly by arabs even, so its nothing to worry about. The word ramadan is spelt in the quran is with the letter 'dhad' and not the 'z' sound.
http://geocities.com/rarequran/index.html AS already said, mods please leave here, the link will be updated with new and sought after recordings especially for the shiachat members in this month of ramadan. So please let the people benefit and dont move this to the media section. May Allah have mercy on your parents.
