THE IMPORTANCE OF KEEPING GOOD NAMES: HADEETH: “On the Day of Qiyamah you will be called by your (own) names and the names of your fathers. Therefore keep good names.” – Abu Dawood. HADEETH: “To whomever is born a child, the child should be given a good name and sound eduction. And when he becomes of age he should be married.” It was Rasoolullah’s (Sallallahu-alayhi-wasallam) practice to enquire the names of persons and villages. If they were pleasant, it became apparent on his face. If not, his displeasure could be seen. Once Rasoolullah (Sallallahu-alayhi-wasallam) called for a volunteer to milk a camel. Four persons volunteered: he refused to accept the services of the first three because their names did not imply pleasantness. The names of the first two were Murra (bitter) while Jamrah (burning coal) was the name of the third person. When the fourth said his name si Yaeesh (love live) Rasoolullah (Sallallahu-alayhi-wasallam) said to him: “Milk her.”
