Apartment of Thankfulness

Question

My father has almost completed building an apartment complex and now he asked us for a suitable name. Can you please give me some suitable names that will make our house filled with Allah Blessings?

Answer

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and may His blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions. We advise you to call your house "Bait al-Hamd" (house of Thankfulness) as this will always remind you of the Blessings Allah has bestowed on you. However, what fills a house with the blessings of Allah is being obedient to Him, and avoiding His prohibitions, not merely the good names. Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): {And if the people of the towns had believed and had the Taqwâ (piety), certainly, We should have opened for them blessings from the heaven….}[7:96]. Allah knows best.
