Embroidering names on bathing towels

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Is it permissible to have Muslim names (such as Muhammad) embroided on a bathing towel?

Bismillaah

A: A bathing towel will eventually be used to rub the body. To have the names embroidered on it will be showing disrespect to these names.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
