Is it Permissible to Omit the Middle Name of My Islamic Certificates?
Question: Is it permissible to omit the middle name of my Islamic certificates?
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Merciful and Compassionate,
There is no Islamic reason that omitting your middle name from Islamic certificates would be wrong or impermissible. The certificates awarded to you are sufficiently ascribed to you by your first and last name.
Many people have middles names or even more than one middle name that does not always appear on all their legal documents.
I hope this helps,
Allah knows best.
