menanggapi milis tsb. saya jadi bertanya apakah betul nama Mohammed itu sesuai
dengan pemahaman umat
islam, artinya bukan sekedar nama belaka tetapi juga sikap dan prilakunya juga
keyakinannya akan islam juga
semua keteladanannya bisa dipertanggung jawabkan, bagaimana jika nama tsb hanya
untuk menyamarkan
gerakan kristenisasi yang selalu menggunakan segala cara, ambil contoh tsunami
di aceh juga dijadikan ajang
kristenisasi/pemurtadan dengan kedok bantuan kemanusiaan, bahkan di pontianak
kristenisasi menggunakan
acara "pesta Es Cream" yang ternyata anak-2 SD tsb di BAPTIS sebelum mereka
menerima es cream yang
dilakukan oleh sebuah gereja disana..... jadi pemberian nama anak-2 inggris
juga perlu kita perhatikan maksud
dan tujuannya, trus bagaimana jika anak-2 tsb mulai besar, apa ngak heboh jika
seorang Mohammad memasuki
gereja mengikuti misa dsb, dsb.........
sorry ini hanya sekedar berbagi info aja dech..... hehehe

Nama Mohammed (Bahasa Indonesianya Mohammad; Mohamad, Muhammad) kini
jadi populer untuk penamaan bayi-bayi di Inggris, seperti dilaporkan
Reuters bertajuk 'Mohammed now one of most popular boys' names in
England'.
Di sebuah milis, rekan Bening Hati <bening_hati2004@xxxxxxxxx>
'jingkrak-jingkrak' kegirangan kala membaca artikel itu, termuat di
situs CS MONITOR. "Meski Islam banyak difitnah dan dihujat, tetapi ternyata
semakin banyak orang yang tertarik mempelajari Islam, demi mencari
kebenaran dan tidak percaya dengan berita fitnah. Salah satu contoh
adalah di Inggris ternyata banyak bayi lahir yang diberi nama
Muhammad. Nama itu bermakna 'terpuji', dengan harapan agar bayinya
kelak menjadi anak yang terpuji," tulis Bening.
Tetapi disisi lain, masih tulis Bening, nama-nama yang dahulu pernah
populer di Inggris, seperti David, Paul, Peter, Joshua, menjadi
nama-nama yang tak lagi populer. "Memang memberi nama yang baik kepada
anak adalah salah satu kewajiban orang tua. Nama anak yang baik,
menurut Nabi adalah yang memiliki arti doa dan harapan yang baik,
bukan hanya sekadar nama untuk identitas. Nama yang menjadikan
pemiliknya memiliki kebanggaan, bukan malah yang membikin malu," jelas
Bening dengan mantap.
Menurut Bening, nama Muhammad menjadi nama favorite di Inggris, bukan
hanya sekadar berita bohong, lihatlah beritanya di :
http://www.csmonitor.com/2005/0114/p01s04-woeu.html
"Salam hangat dari pecinta, pengagum dan pengikut setia Muhammad
dan penentang desakralisasi Muhammad."
Nah, apa tanggapan Anda tentang hal ini?
============
Artikel di Reuters (pernah diposting sebelumnya)
Mohammed now one of most popular boys' names in England
LONDON -- Mohammed has joined perennial favorites Jack and Joshua as
one of the most popular names given to British boys in 2004, a sign of
the country's growing ethnic diversity and a legacy of Muslim
immigration decades ago.
The Office of National Statistics said Mohammed -- meaning variously
"one who is praiseworthy" or "exalted" -- had moved up two places to
enter the top 20 for the first time.
"It is all about demographics. There are now more Muslims being born
in Britain than previously," said Dr. Jamil Sherif of the Muslim
Council of Britain, an umbrella group of 400 organizations.
"About 40 percent of Muslims here are under 25," he told Reuters.
"There are a lot of young families."
Emigration from Asia and Africa surged during the 1960s and 1970s.
Britain -- population around 61 million -- is now home to about 1.6
million Muslims.
But despite its increased popularity, the name has a long way to go
before it takes the laurels from Jack, which has topped the charts for
10 years.
Last year, Joshua was at No. 2, Thomas at No. 3, James at No. 4 and
Daniel at No. 5. Since 2000 these names have all been in the top five.
Girls' names saw more change in the top five than boys, but only
marginally so.
Emily held the top spot for the second year running as did the No. 2
name, Ellie. Jessica, the third most popular name, moved up one place
as did Sophie at No. 4.
Chloe, which was on top for six years until 2003, dipped to No. 5
while Evie was the highest-ranking new entry at 39, up 22 places.
Some celebrity girls' names also jumped in popularity. Keira climbed
100 places to 53rd while alternate spelling Kiera rose 30 places to
94th, presumably inspired by the rising profile of actress Keira
Knightley. Meanwhile, Sienna Miller's name finished just outside the
top 100.
One of the fastest movers in the boys' names was Charlie, which gained
nine places to No. 16, while last year's big climber, Alfie, dropped
nine places to No. 27 and Spencer slumped 47 places.
