Wait for voting, we would use the forum for that, and first the list
of names should be established.

For me, I vote for:
"Fajr" as name
"Linux for the Ummah" as slogan

So if we name the project "Fajr" for example, and make the slogan
"Linux for the Ummah", would that be OK ?

I do agree that a name "would better be" relevant to the project, I
just want to say, that it is not always possible, and maybe not really
necessary to be relevant in a direct manner.
Anyways, I object to the "MuslimOSSP" name, because that won't be easy
to pronounce for non-english (and latin-based language) users.
Imagine an arab, persian or urdu talking person trying to say OSSP.
