Islamic naming guidance

  • Permissible

Draft: not yet reviewed by a scholar. This is not a fatwa.

Good meaning, nothing against it in the sources

No deity or other-religion element: the Berber name is read 'he made them prosper'. The Tifinagh spelling is not verified: no published Tifinagh form was found, so it transliterates the form Yaɣmurasen given by Haddadou.

Confidence: low
