Sumayyah will be a beautiful name, insyAllah.

 

[jaliteng]

Qonita Khairunnisabedient (to God) woman. I love it.

 

[IslamicGirl24]

Hmm....Summayya!
its a very beautiful name but the trouble is a cousin of mine is already named by this name!!

 

[IslamicGirl24]

Is this an arabic name????

 

[Hard Rock Moslem]

Is this an arabic name????

Yes, Sumayya is arabic name but I do not know the meaning. What I know Sumayya (r.a.h) is the first woman syahiiid, it is very very touching story. That's why I give this name to my daughter.

How about Safiyya (also spell as Sofea). This is Prophet's (may blessing and peace be upon him) paternal aunt name. Aishah, Asma all sahaabi's names.

 

[Almeftah]

Is this an arabic name????

I was about to suggest the same name..

(Arabic: "Sumai'yah") small for "Sama'" meaning Sky (Litterly), General meaning is "highness": a person who is highly thought of. Its an arabic name for females.

Sumyyah is one of Sahabah women and she is the first female Martyr of islam.

It was when Abu-Jahal was passing by while she was being Tortured in public, Then he graped a spear and killed her with it.

As for myself i prefer this spelling "Sumaiyah". (you can chose ur own spelling)

 

[Almeftah]

My favorite female name is "Mariam" after the mother of jesus Peace be Upon Him. I just Love this name.

Or "Aasia" after the wife of Firown (Pharaoh of egypt) she was mentioned in Quran as a pious woman.

I know Aasia is a very common name. But when I was little, we had a set of 8 books called "Islamic studies for children", in it it said that the name Aasiya shouldn't be given because it means "disobedient." ????

 

[amna_muslimaa]

Well what about my name "Amna" which means peaceful....and it is also the name of our prophet muhammad (p.b.u.h) mothers name ......!!!!

 

[FOR US]

Doa'a is a vary nice name that means ((praying to Allah))

No, sister. These are totally different.Aasia is the name of Pharaoh's wife and it's written like this in Arabic آسيا,but the word which means disobedient is written like this in Arabic عاصيةThey have nothing to do with eah other.

How about the name Tasneem ( mentioned in Surah Al Mutafefeen), or Jana (mentioned in Surah Ar-Rahman) or Mennah (meaning gift or blessing) or Mennatullah ( the blessing of Allah) or Ayah or Ayatullah ??
