Is Name Daniyaal permissible

Question:

Assalaamualaikum wrwb dear Shaykh.

Can I keep my baby’s name as Daniyaal. Was it the name of any Prophet AS before. What does it mean.

JAZAKALLAHU khairan kaseera for the best service to mankind.

Answer:

wa alaykum salam,

Daniyal is the name of a prophet of Bani Israeel and thus a blessed name as the Prophet (s) said, “give names after names of prophets.” It means ‘Judgment of Allah’ and Allah knows best.
