Question
Can you please tell is Ashaz sahabi name. Can i keep it for my baby boy.
i found one hadees on this.. Can u plz tell is this correct. . how can we proununce Asaz or Ashajj.
Prophet once said to Ashaz who came as a deputation to the Prophet: 0 Ashaz, you have got two conducts which God and his Prophet love. He said: 0 Messenger of God, my parents be sacrificed to you, what are these? The Prophet said: patience and gravity. These two conducts God gave you.
Answer
Ashaj is derived from the root word Shajjun which means to wound the head. Such names are kept to confound the enemies as people do get affected with certain names and their meanings.
And Allah Knows Best
