Scholars dislike this name

Al-Ashar means 'arrogant, insolent'. The Quran (54:25) uses this root to describe a boastful liar, so the meaning is clearly negative.

الاشر کا مطلب 'مغرور، اکڑنے والا' ہے۔ قرآن (54:25) میں یہ لفظ جھوٹے اور شیخی باز کے لیے آیا ہے، اس لیے یہ معنی صاف طور پر برا ہے۔

In the Quran

سَيَعْلَمُونَ غَدًۭا مَّنِ ٱلْكَذَّابُ ٱلْأَشِرُ

ان کو کل ہی معلوم ہوجائے گا کہ کون جھوٹا خود پسند ہے

(Unto their warner it was said): To-morrow they will know who is the rash liar.
