Baseless advantages of the name 'Jannti'

Question

What are rest honorable components would come as gift upon naming a child as Jannti. As I heard all Jannatis will be honored the gift as follows: Hayat of 'Eesaa, may Allaah exalt his mention, face of Yusuf, may Allaah exalt his mention, Akhlaaq of Prophet Muhammad. Kindly inform me the rest.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.

There are no honourable characteristics will be gained because of having the name mentioned in the question. Saying that whoever is named with such a name will have the life of 'Eesaa (Jesus)  may  Allaah  exalt  his  mention and the face of Yoosuf (Joseph)  may  Allaah  exalt  his  mention …and so forth, is wrong, and there is no evidence about this.

Please refer to Fatwa 87596 on appropriate names for Muslim children, and Fatwa 82724 about the desirability of choosing good names for children.

Allaah Knows best.
