I am trying to create the same record the system doesn’t gives any option for ANAME record, after reviewing the documentation they say that I need to create a CNAME record for the same, but again the system is giving me an error message that a similar record exist.
I moved the Name Servers back to DigiCert’s (DNSMadeEasy), when they were pointing Cloudflare the site was down, as I cannot afford downtime hence moved the NS back.
In that case, you should make sure that the records on Cloudflare are exactly the same as they are on your previous DNS provider.
Instead of an ANAME, you would use a CNAME as you said. The error you receive is also fairly clear: Delete the automatically imported A record if you want to create a CNAME. However, both seem to work from what I can see.
What error message did you see when you tried to open your site via Cloudflare?
Record types such as ALIAS and ANAME, as well as Cloudflare’s CNAME Flattening, will all be attempting to give you the same result.
You should note that the change of name servers can take 48 - 96 hours to propagate out to the whole Internet.
Switching back and forth multiple times within a short time can cause trouble that will be hard to troubleshoot, or even cause you the downtime you claim you cannot afford.
…but it appears the circular redirect is coming from your origin (it is redirectingalhussnain.org to alhussnain.org). I suggest you pause Cloudflare, get your site working correctly at your server, then unpause Cloudflare.
Your ftp record should be set to “DNS only” if you use FTP.
