I am in the process of embracing Islam. I like the name Shazia & have researched the meaning. This name seems to both persian & arabic meaning. Will this be a problem for me to keep this name?

Answer

May Allah Ta?ala bless your conversion to Islam. May Allah make you steadfast and a strong and practicing Muslimah, Aameen.

You may keep the name Shazia.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
