Name your children after prophets or righteous people from before us

This hadith speaks of the importance of naming after prophets and righteous people from before us. It is narrated by Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah that the Prophet Muhammad sent him to Najran, where they asked him a question which he did not know how to answer. When he returned, the Prophet Muhammad told him that they were named after their prophets and righteous people before them. This hadith teaches us that we should name our children after prophets or righteous people from before us as it will bring blessings upon them in this life and in the hereafter. We should also remember that these names are symbols of faithfulness, piety, righteousness, justice, mercy etc., so we should strive to live up to these values in our lives as well.
