Question:
Assalamu alaykum Mawlana Shaykh Hisham,
I am a revert 15 years now, Alhamdulillah and also a lover of Mawlana Shaykh Nazim (q). Sayyidi, I humbly request for you (Sayyidi) to please provide me with one of my names and also to humbly request Ijazah to change it to the name Sayyidi provides. Currently, I feel no connection to the name which I selected when I reverted. Also please make du’a for me to draw closer to Almighty Allah.
Shukran
