Asak Mufti Saheb, Thanks a lot for answering my question.Fatwa Id 10582,(Fatwa: 124/125=D/1429).You replied that :”You may keep any of the two names: Ahmad or Muhammad”.I am sorry but the response is a bit unclear to me.Does that mean that Ahmed or Mohammad can be either first or the last name.If,they can also be the last name or middle names,Can I keep my son’s first name after any other name?Like:Ayaan Ahmed or Ayaan Mohammad .I just want to make sure that “Ahmed or Mohammad” can be the last names or not?Can I keep the first name of my child by any other 99 names of Prophet Mohammad(P.B.U.H) as well? I would relly appreciate your response. Thanks for your patience.
