Question:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

If someone is adopting a child, and the law here is, that you have to give him your family name, will this be allowed? Do they also give the option to have two names, his family name and yours?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of\u00a0All<\/em><\/u><\/strong>\u0101<\/u><\/em><\/strong>h<\/u><\/em><\/strong>, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Answer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Adopting a child is a praiseworthy deed.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Changing one\u2019s name or family name is permissible as long as the intent is not to conceal one\u2019s biological lineage or family. The Prophet Mu\u1e25ammad (peace and blessings be upon him<\/em>) had changed the names of some of his Companions. It is permissible for you to give the adopted child, if the law in your country requires, your family name or jointly keep his and your family name together. However, the child must be informed about his actual biological lineage and family.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Prophet Mu\u1e25ammad (peace and blessings be upon him<\/em>) said, \u201cVerily, one of the worst lies is to claim falsely to be the son of someone other than one\u2019s real father.\u201d \u2013 (\u1e62a\u1e25\u012b\u1e25 Bukh\u0101r\u012b 3509)[1]<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cAnd he has not made your adopted sons your [true] sons. That is [merely] your saying by your mouths, but All\u0101h says the truth, and He guides to the [right] way. Call them by [the names of] their fathers; it is more just in the sight of All\u0101h. If you do not know their fathers – then they are [still] your brothers in religion and those entrusted to you. There is no blame upon you for that in which you have erred but [only for] what your hearts intended. And ever is All\u0101h Forgiving and Merciful.\u201d – (Qur\u2019\u0101n: 33:5)[2]<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
