Can anyone shed some light on the sunnah regarding the kunya? It seems to me (correct me if I'm wrong), from the texts I have come accross, that kunyas using a male name (e.g. Abu 'Abdullaah) are more common than those using a female name (e.g. Abu 'Aaliyah), so I wondered if some of the salaf would have their son's name for a kunya even when their eldest child was a daughter. And Allaah knows best.

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم What seems to be correct from the Hadeeth of Abu shuraih which is in abu Daawud and Tirmidhi and you can find it under the chapter of 'Honoring Allaah's names and changing names for that reason' near the end of kitaab Tawheed. In all the explanations it mentions that this is the Sunnah to take the kunya of your eldest, I do remember however Fawzaan saying that it should be the eldest son. And Allaah knows best. أبو سلمان النمري طلحة بن وليم والعصر ان الانسان لفي خسر الا الذين آمنواو عملوا الصالحات و تواصوا بالحق و تواصوا بالصبر This message was edited by abusalmaan on 7-3-03 @ 10:34 AM

Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullah; Was there confirmation, by way of an authentic Text, that it is to be the oldest son? Jazakallahu khair Abu Na'imah Shamsuddin

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم Thats what seems to be clear from the hadeeth. Please refer to the hadeeth mentioned. و الله أعلم أبو سلمان النمري طلحة بن وليم والعصر ان الانسان لفي خسر الا الذين آمنواو عملوا الصالحات و تواصوا بالحق و تواصوا بالصبر

Massahallah, may Allah reward you for pointing out his issue. I also have a question regarding names. What is said about people naming or calling themselfs Abdi (slave)? This name is common among many muslims, so my question is, can we use the name Abdi without Allah added to, as in Abdillah? Jazakallak Khair "O Believers, if an unrighteous person comes to you with information, you should verify it or else you might inflict harm on a people in ignorance and then end up regretting what you have done." (Al Quran 49:6)

Al-Hamdulillah wa salatu wa salamu 'ala Rasulullah Salamu alaikum wa rahmatullah; Again I wish to thank you for the Daleel [i.e. the Hadith of Abu Dawud] and statement of Shaikh Fawzan on this matter of the kunya, it has become clear to me as to what you were presenting, Al-Hamdulillah. May Allah, Azza wa Jall, reward immensely. Abu Na'imah Shamsuddin This message was edited by abu.naimah.shamsuddi on 7-5-03 @ 5:00 AM
