Ikram Hawramani's Traditional Islamic Baby Names is the definitive English-language work on traditional names from Islamic history, spanning over 1500 male and female given names belonging to more than 9000 of the Companions (friends and peers) of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as recorded in history books.
The names are sourced from respected scholarly works on the lives of the Companions, such as Usud al-Ghabah fi Ma`rifat al-Sahabah by Ibn al-Athir (1160 - 1233 CE) and Mawsoo`at Hayaat al-Sahaabah (Encyclopedia of the Lives of the Companions) by Muhammad Sa`eed Mubayyid (published 2000 CE).Great care has been taken to ensure the correctness of the meanings provided; all meanings have been validated across various respected references, such as Taj al-Lughah wa Sihaah al-Arabiyyah by Isma`eel bin Hammad al-Jawhari (11th century CE), Lisaan al-Arab by Ibn Manzur (14th century), al-Qamoos al-Muheet by Fairuzabadi (15th century), and contemporary sources such as Qamoos al-Asmaa' al-Arabiyyah by Shafeeq al-Arna'ut, Asmaa' al-Banaat wa Ma`aanihaa by Muhammad Ibraheem Saleem, Qamoos al-Asmaa' al-Arabiyyah wal Mu`arrabah by Dr. Hanaa Nasr al-Hatti, and the Sultan Qaboos Encyclopedia of Arab Names by a research team at Sultan Qaboos University in Muscat, Oman.
