We know that for each issue there is a primary or secondary religious ruling. If you do not mind that we want the ruling of the fact that some people name themselves as “dogs of Al Muhammad”. We all know that Allah honoured man by making him humane apart from the other creatures. We also know that although naming is metaphoric, yet as you see that the reaction of the society is so negative because they see it disgusting. We find that offence and such names are concomitant in the mind of the public even though the second parts of the names are such a great noun. Some people deliberately put some chains in their necks, crawl like dogs and issue barking sounds like dogs. This fact has made the Shia refrain from this phenomenon before other people do?
Answer
In the name of Allah, what you mentioned is not related to the rituals in any way. Purifying the souls is to be done by repentance, enjoying good and forbidding evil and applying the piety literally, but not like what you mentioned. Be advised, my son, I prefer that those people choose other names like servants of Alulbait, Fedayee Alulbait (self-sacrificers for Ahlulbait), or lions of Alulbait. Regarding naming, humans are free to name himself whatever they want, provided that it is not offensive for religion, themselves or others, especially that names are to show submission to Imam Hussein (PBUH) or readiness to do anything hard work just to protect the Imam (PBUH) and his principles. Arabs used to name themselves as beasts like Bano Asad (Lion Tribe), Bano Kilab (Dogs Tribe) and others. However, although dogs have negative properties like najasa, they have positive characteristics like loyalty and faithfulness in protecting the owner. The person who names himself as a dog may mean these good characteristics towards the infallibles. Allah is the all Guide and best Knowing.
