"Aalam is an indirect Quranic name for boys and girls that means world," Khaled wrote. "It is derived from the AIN-L-M which is used in many places in the Qur'an." He continued, "Peace be upon Nuh among [the people of] the world."

Jan 20 . 2020 Time 11 : 42 pm,” he captioned a pic , noting the date and time of Aalam’s birth. “Aalam eight pounds and four ounces, we the best! More love, more blessings.”
