Fatwa Answer
Assalaamualaikum,
We have finalized boy name which is “ZOHAIR MOHAMMED”.
1) What is the meaning of the name “ZOHAIR”?
2) Is “ZOHAIR” Sahaba name? Everywhere on the internet the meaning of the name “ZOHAIR” comes as “Best friend of the last prophet (SAW)”. Please can you share your views on this?
3) Does name spelling “ZOHAIR” and “ZUHAIR” means the same?
4) Do we write both the names in Arabic the same way which is “زھیر”?
Jazak’Allahu’Khairan.!
بسم اللہ الرحمن الرحیم
