Mispronunciation Of Muslim Names

Published by Nairaland on Fri, 13 May 2016


Friday Islamic and Moral Diet Series (FIMDS) 4Some people just mispronounce Muslim names and many of us don't see it as a problem. Barring my knowledge of Historical Linguistics, how did Siraaj turn to Suraju, Zulaykhah to Suliya, Khadeejah to Adija, Is'haq to Siaka, Ibraheem to Brahimo or Buremo, 'Aasiyah to Siata, Dhikrullah to Sikiru, Sa'eed to Saidi, Moryam to Mori, Shaakirah to Saki, Ridwan to Riliwan, Misbah to Musibau, Zulfah to Silifa, Sofiyyah to Sefiya, 'Abdulmojeed to Mojidi, and Najmuddeen to Naajimu, Fadheelah to Fali, Faatihah to Fetia and so on'I know some prominent OPC members called Kasimu Snpn-n, Wasiu Akerese, Taofiki Agbnonl and Taoridi Sangot. What happened to Qoosim, 'AbdulWas'i, Tawfiq and Tawheed' Is it because they were not even Muslims'There are Yoruba films titled Muniru ati Ambali, Jelili Oniso, Monsuru, Monsuratu, Mufu Ols Oko, Aminatu, Sikiratu Sindodo, Aafa Sule et cetera. How did these names change from Muneer and Hambal, Abduljeleel, Miftah, Aameenah and Sulaymon' Are the producers ignoramuses or they have an axe to grind' Are we suffering from inferiority complex'Only a joker answers to a corrupted Muslim name. Your freedom begins from what you accept as your name or your child's name.'When the child is born, one of the first ways in which he is to be honoured is by giving him a good name, because a good name will have a good impact on the heart when it is first heard.' --Almowardi
