His younger brother, Sayyid al-Shuhada, Sayyiduna Imam Husayn رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ was born on the 5th of Sha’ban 4 AH, in Madinah al-Munawwarah. The Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم named him Husayn and Shabbir. His patronymic name is Abu Abdullah, and his titles are also sibtu Rasool and rayhanat al-Rasool (the flower of the Messenger صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم). Just like his elder brother, Imam Husayn رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ is also a leader of the youth of Paradise.[2]

Not only this, but even on the plains of resurrection, they will be called to the court of Allah Almighty with that same name. Sayyiduna Darda رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ narrates that the beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, “On the Day of Judgement, you will be called by your names and the names of your forefathers. Therefore, give good names.”[3]
Dear Islamic brothers, those people who name their children after singers, film actors or مَعَاذَ اللہ non-Muslims should take heed from this
