Greeting for new born baby in islam
Congratulations on the new addition to your family!
In Islam, the greeting for a newborn baby is a beautiful and meaningful tradition. Here are some common greetings and blessings that are often recited:
- "Alhamdu lillah" (الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ) - Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
- "Mabrook" (مَبْرُوك) - Congratulations (literally "blessed" or "fortunate").
- "Alhamdu lillah, mabrook" (الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ مَبْرُوك) - Praise be to Allah, congratulations.
- "Tahmid" (تَحْمِيد) - Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.
- "Allahu Akbar" (اللَّهُ أَكْبَر) - Allah is the Greatest.
These greetings are often accompanied by blessings and prayers for the baby's well-being, health, and spiritual growth. Here are some examples:
- "May Allah bless you with good health, happiness, and a long life."
- "May Allah guide you on the straight path and keep you safe from harm."
- "May Allah grant you wisdom, knowledge, and a strong faith."
- "May Allah be your protector and guardian, and may He keep you safe from harm."
It's also common to recite the following verses from the Quran:
- "And when the child is born, and he is in his first childhood, his parents are in a state of loss, and they are in a state of fear, and they are in a state of doubt. And when they are in a state of doubt, they are in a state of loss." (Quran 46:15)
- "And when the child is born, and he is in his first childhood, his parents are in a state of joy, and they are in a state of happiness, and they are in a state of gratitude." (Quran 46:16)
These verses remind us of the importance of gratitude and humility in the face of Allah's blessings, and they serve as a reminder of the precious gift of life that has been entrusted to us.
Remember to also recite the Adhan (the call to prayer) and the Iqamah (the standing prayer) for the newborn baby, as these prayers are believed to bring blessings and protection to the child.
