The Shaykh : Yes
The questioner : The honorable Shaykh, there is a man called Abbad Uthman al-Abbad. What is your opinion of this name?
The Shaykh : Abbad, Abbad
The questioner : Abbad Uthman al-Abbad
The Shaykh : Abbad
The questioner : Uthman al-Abbad
The Shaykh : Yes, meaning Abbad ibn Uthman
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : There is nothing wrong with it. You think Abbad Uthman Abbad is a compound name where Abbad is the name and Uthman is the genitive, meaning he worships Uthman, yes.
The questioner : Yes
The Shaykh : No, his intention is Abbad ibn Uthman, but this language came to us, and I do not know from where it came. We used to know only Abbad ibn, Muhammad ibn, Ali ibn, but this non-Arabic language came to us, which is the omission of "ibn," and people began to say, for example, Ali ibn Abdullah, Ali Abdullah, Muhammad ibn Abdullah, Muhammad Abdullah. And we ask Allah not to bring upon us the addition of the wife to her husband, as they say in the name of a man's wife, so-and-so of so-and-so, and they leave out the father, so her father becomes her husband, yes. The result is that this is not the case among non-Saudis, praise be to Allah, but we ask Allah to protect us. I fear that when the disease of omitting "ibn" came to us, the other disease will come after it.
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : Absolutely, he listens until he reaches the tribe, for example, Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Khalid ibn Abdullah ibn Abbas, and so on, until he reaches the tribe and the name of the tribe is given, yes.
