What Matters Is the Substance (Piety) Not The Shadow (Name)

Question

My name is Kiran two proposals came for me one boy name is Waqar others name is Rizwan which one is good for me.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

The criteria that should be considered in marriage is made clear by the Prophet Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) as he said: “If a man whose religion and moral conduct are pleasing to you proposes to you, then let him marry; otherwise there will be great mischief and corruption on earth.” ). [At-Tirmithi]

Therefore, you should choose the one who is known for his religion and good character regardless of his name.

Allah knows best.
