Masjid al Muslimoon and Masjid al Dhikrullah is of now taken for my future masaajid with a orphanage on the side insha'Allah. Thankyou, come again
But I got a few more suggestions for you lots, you want something thats not taken by other masaajid or at least by well known masaajid otherwise gets confusing. Masjid Tawheed, Masjid Ghurabah, Masjid al Salafiyyah are all taken.
Masjid al Ibaadullah [masjid of the slaves of Allah]
Masjid al Tawaboon [masjid of the repenters]
Masjid al Sajidoon [masjid of those who make sajdah or Masjid al Sajdah]
Masjid al Ansarullah [masjid of the helpers of Allah]
Masjid al Sabiqoon [masjid of the foremost in good deeds]
Masjid al Rahman
Masjid al Mujahideen [would be interesting to see how long that lasts]
Masjid al Bi'dah [lol not really]

:ahb: it was thanks to Allah ta ala, and saddam huseyin building that masjid that i became a muslim alhamdulillah, cos i wrote to them and they sent me a Quran :up: insha Allah he gets some reward for that.
what is the deal with naming masjids anyway, is there some kind of advice or reccomendations from sahih sunnah on naming them ? sorry i dont know anything about this subject at all :o

awww can i work in ur orphanage?
Inshallah I hope all goes well with the masjid. If it is being built sincerely for the pleasure of Allah (swt), then I'd call it unity masjid or whatever the Arabic equivalent might be.
On the other hand, if it's built by some Kashmiri (or Sylheti or pick any racial group that acts as if the masjid is exclusively for them) baba who'll only allow people on the committee from his pind/tribe and employs people on the basis on cronyism rather than merit- then I'd call it Pendu masjid:p If they employ molvis who can't speak English and are just in it for the money then I'd call it Halva Molvi masjid.

okay just a note... if u go with one of these in the format like
masjid al muminoon... or any such plural word which has this "oon" you shouldnt do it like that, but rather make it masjid al mumineen... this applies to any, like mujahideen, saabireen, muttaqeen... or whichever.
do not spell it with "oon" because according to the arabic grammar, it is not correct.
so insha allah just do check before u go for the final decision. :up:

This could be very controversial, dhakiyyah. :) Masjid is derived from the root 'sajada' which means prostrate. It actually means the position where someone prostrate so to say Allah's masjid is not good in my opinion.

Thank you for correcting me :) I didn't know that. How would you say that the masjid (place of prayer) belonged to Allah?

There is a verse in the Quran where Allah says "And the places of worship are for Allah (alone): So invoke not any one along with Allah;" [072:018]
meaning the masajid are for Allah. You could also say Bait Allah, the house of Allah.

I would choose Bait Allah as the name of a masjid if I was to name one then :up: shukran
