Bismillah hir-Rahman nir-Rahim !

(Fatwa: 35/35=D/1429)

Afeer is derived from afira which means: having grey colour. Afeer means: meat dried in sun, Afeerah a woman not giving gift to her neighbour. According to Hadith, the best names are Abdullah and Abdur Rahman, or you can choose any other name from the names of Sahaba or Awliya, they will be cause of more blessing.
