Answer 1

people who are of muslim faith and have muslim names, and are from a strong muslim countries, such as lebanon change their middle eastern names and adapt to christian names for safety reasons back home, or a lot of them have names they cant pronounce in english so its easier just to have a regular name.

Answer 3

Muzzie? That's the first time I've ever heard that slang used...It IS kinda disrespectful, not to mention lame-sounding. You just sound like you're talking about that animated character who teaches French for children.

Anyway though, I don't think its so much that they forsake their culture as it is that western names are easier to pronounce for westerners. (I avoided using the term Christian since some western, non-Muslim names are not Christian)

Answer 4

It's a matter of personal choice. A lot of people have changed from Christian to Muslim names too.

Answer 5

well, if they left islam or they converted from Islam, they might change their names. but I m not aware of a praciticing muslim who changed his islamic name. so I m not sure why for practicing muslims.. but I know for me for instance, would like to change my name, because i don't believe in Islam anymore and my name make confusions to non-muslims, and they stereotyped me at the first hand, or they don't give me pork thinking I m muslim.. sigh

Answer 6

O' creatures of Allah! the most beloved of Allah is he whom Allah has given power (to act) against his passions, so that his inner side is (submerged in) grief and the outer side is covered with fear. The lamp of guidance is burning in his heart. He has provided entertainment for the day that is to befall him. He regards what is distant to be near himself and takes the hard to be light. He looks at and perceives; he remembers (Allah) and enhances (the tempo of his) actions. He drinks sweet water to whose source his way has been made easy. So he drinks to satisfaction and takes the level path. He has put off the clothes of desires and got rid of worries except one worry peculiar to him. He is safe from misguidance and the company of people who follow their passions. He has become the key to the doors of guidance, and the lock for the doors of destruction.

He has seen his way and is walking on it. He knows his pillar (of guidance) and has crossed over his deep water. He has caught hold of the most reliable supports and the strongest ropes. He is on that level of conviction which is like the brightness of the sun. He has set himself for Allah, the Glorified, for performance of the most sublime acts of facing all that befalls him and taking every step needed for it. He is the lamp in darkness. He is the dispeller of all blindness, key to the obscure, remover of complexities, and a guide in vast deserts. When he speaks he makes you understand whereas when he remains silent then it is safe to do so. He did everything only for Allah and so Allah also made him His own. Consequently, he is like the mines of His faith and as a stump in His earth. He has enjoined upon himself (to follow) justice.

The first step of his justice is the rejection of desires from his heart. He describes right and acts according to it. There is no good which he has not aimed at nor any likely place (of virtue) of the Qur'an. Therefore the Qur'an is his guide and leader. He gets down when the Qur'an puts down his weight and he settles where the Qur'an settles him down.
