Islam is a religion of love, mercy, and compassion — especially between husband and wife.
Love in Islam isn’t expressed through haram actions or words, but through pure affection, kindness, and soft speech.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
"The best among you are those who are best to their wives, and I am the best of you to my wives."
(Sunan al-Tirmidhi, 3895)
One of the ways to express love is through sweet and respectful nicknames. The Prophet ﷺ used to call Aisha رضي الله عنها lovingly as “Ya ‘Aish” — a shortened, affectionate form of her name. This shows that Islam encourages warmth and love in marriage, as long as it remains within the limits of Shariah.
Allah says:
وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً
“…and He placed between you affection and mercy.”
(Surah Ar-Rum 30:21)
So here are some beautiful, halal, and meaningful names you can lovingly call your spouse — from classical Arabic names to modern, meaningful ones.
