A helpful and substantive guide to common and less-common Muslim names and their meanings

In a well-known hadith, Muhammed advises Muslims that, On the Day of Resurrection, you will be called by your names and the names of your fathers; so keep beautiful names. Inspired by the teachings of Islam, names fulfill the cherished ambitions of a true Muslim. In The Dictionary of Muslim Names, Salahuddin Ahmed provides a helpful and substantive guide to common and less-common Muslim names. This lively and informative dictionary lists the original Arabic, Persian, or Turkish spelling, as well as a precise English transliteration. The names' meaning and bearing on Islamic heritage or world history are referenced, along with historical figures who bore the name-an Imaam, a Sultan, a saint-and accompanying illustrations.
