Fatwa no. 12800 All praise be to Allah Alone, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger, and his family, and Companions.The Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta' reviewed the request submitted to his Eminence the Grand Mufty (Islamic scholar qualified to issue legal opinions) from the director of the department responsible for following those who remain illegally in the country after the performance of Hajj or `Umrah and forcing them out in Riyadh, which was referred to the Committee from the General Secretariat of the Council of Senior Scholars with the number (1898) in 14/4/1410 AH. The following question was posed:There is a company named "`Aziz for Contracting and Trade". We would like Your Excellence to advise us whether the name of the company is one of the Names of Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) or not. We hope Your Eminence will give us an answer to carry out the necessary procedures. With best regards.


After studying the question, the Committee answered:There is no objection to this name, because the word "`Aziz" is not exclusive (Part No. 2; Page No. 347) to Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He).May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
