Question
A Christian embraced Islam. However, he is not keen to adopt a Muslim name. A sheikh says that it is not necessary to have a Muslim name. Should he adopt a Muslim name?
Answer
A Muslim must have a Muslim name. Loving a kaafir name indicates defective Imaan. The sheikh is stupid. The person changes his religion, but is reluctant to change his/her name!
